If I where complaining for everyone getting Super Saiyan 3, Gogeta & Vegetto would be the only ones I would never complain, since they should already have the ability to turn into Super Saiyan 3 in both the anime & manga.

Well, at this point, Vegetto should probably also get it at some point in the future. But Gogeta does look cool.

SSJ3 Gogeta isn't really surprising to me. The best way i can describe this is just that its about damn time.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Does anyone find it funny that there are now more ssj3s than there are ssj2s? :lol: I guess ssj2 receives next to no attention because it isn't as marketable, probably due to the fact that the difference in appearance between ssj1 and ssj2 isn't enough to stand out all that much to many people while ssj3 really stands out.

Goku: Damn it. I knew I should have copyrighted that form when I had the chance...

Thats a shame really, the reason why SSj3 was so badass was because it was only mastered by two people (one if you don't Gotenks).

Yeah, I'd really want to see those SS3 users get SS2 forms for the sake of consistency.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

At least Future Trunks got SS2 in Budokai 2, 3 & Infinite World. And the difference was huge! Same hair, just sparks. :|
Future Gohan has also gotten SS2 in Shin Budokai, along with the Ultimate form.

I just actually paid attention to the cards, it looks to me like it influences how big the energy ball you're throwing will be.

Possible/probable/whatever. lol That is what it looked like to me, I just don't want to guess at a game mechanic based off pictures unless it is REALLY obvious, like the Fusion or Transformation mechanics. Just one of those things that is better left for a translation to prevent misunderstandings.

Well, we all saw that the site's GM3 announcement art included Bebi Goten and Gohan. Now we have confirmation that at least normal GT Goten will be getting a card, debuting as part of the next, upcoming starter set, along with GT Trunks (variable transformation), Goku (Gogeta), and Vegeta.

It seems like we'll be getting the Bebi infected heroes from Episode 29 of GT...would hoping for Bra and Bebi Bra to be playable be asking a little too much? lol

I've been hoping for Bra for a long time. At least it adds another chick into the mix.

I think this might be the first time adult Goten is playable in a video game. About damn time if you ask me. :)

Maybe they will give Goten SS3 too. The only reason I don't mind him getting it is because Trunks has it too.

I'd rather we got a Super Saiyan Pan instead. But I feel we'll still get Goten Super Saiyan 3, then we'll probably finally get the boring ass adult Gotenks and forms. Probably Vegetto Super Saiyan 3 too.

Adult Gotenks? Meh. I'll gladly take him if they want to add him, but I won't care if they don't. It's not like the transformations, where we need him to appear to know the "kids" can still fuse into him. Also, he'd just be Gogeta with the hair swapped. lol
Super Saiyan 3 Vegetto? Yes, counterbalance Gogeta dammit.
Super Saiyan 3 GT Goten? Yes, counterbalance GT Trunks dammit.
Super Saiyan Pan? Yes, we already have her avatar clone with the form dammit.
Super Saiyan Bra? Yes, to counterbalance Pan...if she's even playable. Dammit. =P

They can stop with the new transformation for old characters after that, unless they actually want to be creative and design a 5th form Freeza for his GT appearance or something...

I agree, Gotenks would be nothing more than a Gogeta clone, I never understand why people wanted him so much. I do understand and agree with your other points. But at the end of the day, I'm still hoping more for Tsufruian Avatars.

Adolescent Bebi was released in GM2 as the SEC, and will presumably be featured more prominently in GM3 since Bebi Vegeta has already been shown. If they were going to introduce Neo Machine Mutant avatars, now would probably be the time. Seems sort of unlikely though since they already have the little regular Machine Mutant Gill-clone-hero, Poll, and are focusing on his transformations...

Have to agree with out though. Much rather have Bebi clones than Gill clones.

Has there been ANY game in any format that has End of Z Trunks or Goten? I know Trunks could pretty much look the same but I really want to see what Goten's SS hair would look like.

Well Buu's Fury did have them as background characters IIRC. However, thats not good enough for me, I've been waiting for them to appear since 2004 or so. Get on that Namco! :lol:
