Yeah, why?
I'd just never seen anything like that before. Every PS2 game I've seen comes in a black case.

Isn't that only because the difficulty settings got all screwed up?
I'm not sure but I don't think so. I think it's just a very challenging Dragon Ball Z fighting game, for whatever particular reason. I remember back in the day one of my friends telling me it was the hardest DBZ game he had played.

My friend sold it to me for only $10.00, what a steal. You can get it here if you want.

That's strange.

All PAL PS2 games had either a blue (Regular), black (Regular), white (Regular), silver (Platinum) and some other colour, I personally hate that PS2 had so many different case colours so I always try to avoid and stick to one colour case only whether it's Dragon Ball or other titles.

I'm new and this is my first post!

After 10 or so years of being a Dragonball fan I've finally started to collect the series.
Apart from random VHS's and movies with the ocean dub I recently purchased Dragonbox vol 1,2,5,6,7 and soon to be vol 3! All for $300!!

I'm a fan of the funi and jap dub so not having the Faulconer score is a bit disappointing, however I know Dragonbox is the way the show was originally meant to be seen (atleast very close to) and I'm very satisfied with my purchase :) also it being discontinued and rare us another plus :p

Let me be the first to say ''Welcome to Kanzenshuu!'' :D Also If you'd like to pick up vol 3 of the Dragon-boxes, Just go here : http://www.walmart.com/ip/14311871 31.96 is the price.
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

It's probably a PAL and NTCS thing. My european PS2 games have blue cases and my japanese PS2 games have black cases.

Europe. Things are different over here sometimes. For no real reason.

I know what you mean. Now the NTSC PS3 games that become Greatest Hits come in red cases. It looks terrible next to the clear ones.

On topic: I didn't technically make the purchase, but my friend and I were at a flea market where he bought a DB saga set for $6.00. I think it was the Pilaf saga.

Just picked up dragon box vol.4! Woot!!

Now I only need vol. 3 which I'll probably get from amazon. That's unless someone on here knows how to get one cheaper.

Just picked up a used copy of Ultimate Tenkaichi. Decided to try it out for myself instead of constantly bashing it. Haven't played it yet.... but I'll find out how great it is soon enough.

Just recieved Dragon Ball (Z) Kai: Part 3 Blu-ray [Madman version] I won on Trademe last week and like the first two I have, it contains the US Part discs so at least it does contain the Yamamoto score.

Ah, that is what I love about the Madman blu-rays. They are the A/B region coded and has the Yamamoto score.

Part four is still a mystery but I highly doubt it contains Yamamoto.

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

You're right, I probably shouldn't have made my post vague. But yes, first 3 Collections (parts) have been confirmed to be Yamamoto on blu-ray.
