"Faux Greatest Hits"? Did the normal disc come in the GH case?

Naw, there was an error by Atari were they printed normal Budokai 3 disk's with Greatest Hit's labels. So by this, the disk lacks content such as the 3 secret costumes of Trunks, Gokuu and Piccolo, and the JPN voice track.

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

Just won DB(Z) Kai Part 3 Blu-ray on Trademe for only $20.

I'm definitely going to take my chances with Part 4 when it comes up cheap to see if it does contain the Yamamoto score too.

I re-bought Budokai 1 and 3 (this was well before I heard of the HD Collection).

Last time I bought a Dragonball product was last year when I got the Pioneer releases of Dead Zone, World's Strongest and Tree of Might on DVD.

I'll get the original FUNimation releases of movies 4-6 and the two specials on DVD. And Viz Media's Complete Illustrations book.

But ain't got a PS2 to play it right now (my PS2 FAT is elsewhere) so it'll stay sealed for the time being.

Nice. Arguably the most difficult Dragon Ball game ever. This is definitely on my buy-list as soon as I get a PS2.

Isn't that only because the difficulty settings got all screwed up?

Bought part 8 of Kai. I was considering waiting for the inevitable "Season 4" but my impatience got the best of me. That and that I find the season sets annoyingly less ornate than the individual parts. That and I had a Best Buy coupon for $20 so the DVD only cost $3 :3 I'll probably buy parts 6 and 7 soon from Amazon, especially since Part 6 may go out of print with Season 3 coming out (I already have Part 5, and I have no desire to double up) I wanna get season 2 also, so my Kai collection will be complete, but it's better to wait a while and not blow all my money. Plus if I wait a while, Season 2 will hopefully decrease in price.

Off-topic, but all the Best Buys here in NYC are really limited Kai-wise, something that really irks me. Right now, they only have Part 8. A while back, they only had Part 7. Before that, Part 6. You see where I'm going with this. Either they sell out really quickly or they just don't keep them in stock long. I can understand the disappearance of Part 6 with Season 3 coming out, but Part 7? Also, not a Season 1 or Season 2 in sight in any of the stores, just online. The lone Walmart in the greater area (just outside the city limits) isn't much better. I might buy the 3rd Dragon Box from that store I mentioned earlier if it's still there cuz it's going for a frightening amount online. :shock:
