DBZ: Ultimate Blast/Tenkaichi (Pre-Release Discussion)

[DNA]

Perhaps, it is that fight indeed. Oh well, my point still stands.

[Li'l Lemmy]

It's as though Gohan had been originally planned to be in his "Ultimate" form, but that someone decided at the last minute to throw in a splash of yellow so that people wouldn't ask why he's the only not Super Saiyan.

Yeah, probably, but even if that was the case, that portion of the scene is particularly horrible. At least in the other parts, even though his hair lacks the detail lines the other characters have, it still has shading. lol

[Li'l Lemmy]

And it's really weird because immediately after we get those great shots of Goku and Vegeta giving each other that "have to Fusion" glance, and their hair is friggin' LOADED with a crapton of detail. Anyone who didn't notice the scene with Gohan certainly does after the presentation values suddenly shoot up again not two seconds later.

Wasn't there supposed to be a new trailer coming out today?

That list is probably fake since we didn't get one last week too.

Last memo we had about the trailer last week was that one was definitely supposed to be released, but apparently it contained stuff some people didn't want to show off yet (I guess?), because they were having trouble getting the okay to put it up.

Was wrong... The TGS trailer we were supposed to get was just the leaked footage from the handcam on Youtube, the extended version of the animated cutscenes trailer that showed off the Buu Arc. It wasn't officially posted because they can't use Cha-La Head-Cha-La outside of Japan,...so don't expect the original Japanese soundtrack like they promised in that first English scan.

...so don't expect the original Japanese soundtrack like they promised in that first English scan.

What was stated in the first scan was not very clear. They could have easily meant a new original score for the game itself and not the Japanese background music from the series. But yeah I was disappointed as well. Stupid copyrights...

The scan said "original Japanese voiceovers and music". While you might have been able to interpret it that way on its own, the Japanese version of the game has music from the show. So there shouldn't be any question about what it meant...you can't have "original Japanese music" for the international version of the game when that isn't the score used in the domestic Japanese release.

It isn't that big of a deal, I can just play the right music off my HD via the XMB, but it would have been nice to not have to do that...

EDIT: Stupid typos...

[InfernalVegito]

Yeah I agree. Hopefully the option for XMB is still there.

Maybe it just means it's got original Japanese voice-overs and it also features music. You never know with these Japanese.

That's what I tried to say.

I meant it simply features music, like that's a new thing.

A TV commercial has been uploaded.

[JulieYBM]

Ah, nice, nice. Hopefully we get some more Majin Boo arc stuff soon!

[Hellspawn28]

I hope that they won't add SSJ Bardock & Chilled as Japanese exclusive...

If Japan does get something special then they are likely be DLC for other users that have it outside of Japan. That's how games work now these days.

So where did the giant crater go??

Nice new clip! About the crater, it seems like at the end of the video it's off screen to the right. These craters aren't real-time damage as the current console generation cannot handle that sort of thing. It's basically switching one stage for the same with a crater modeled inside.

[cloud1414]

New video, its the opening to the game and showing the roster. I'm in love with the opening.

[Rostir]

OK, so GT characters have been visually confirmed.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

...Was that red freaking Saibaimen in the opening? lol I'm only partially through the video, but I'm loving all the characters thrown in and the animation being close to the original series in style.

[Haseowolf]

WOW. That was just. Wow. Amazing. Can't wait to see this on my TV in full HD!

I loving the style and the fights chosen to showcase the animation. Hildegarn being in the opening is great. I would say this confirms him for in-game, but Slug was in the PtEtSS in Raging Blast 2 and look how that turned out. I'm willing to bet he'll be in since they want more giant boss battles. Here's hoping Tapion is back to play as!

Yeah, I still want this game. Just gotta pay the rest off. Got $50 down on the damn thing already
