Unless "they" is your mom, you should be able to just copy-paste the list from wherever you got it from.

Hehe :lol: "your mom".

18 characters isn't bad, especially on a handheld system.

On the one hand I would like to see a few more characters. On the other I only really use a small handful of characters in DBZB3 and Sparking. In all honesty as long as it has Buu Saga Gohan and Gogeta, I'm happy.

Well, Cell was born on Earth, and technically so was Piccolo. >>;;; Trunks and Gotenks are also half-human.. more or less.

:? Hmm...The only ones we've seen in screenshots are Paikuhan, Vegeta, Goku, and Janemba...

Gamespot isn't always correct on these things either...
I really, really need to get back into the habit of posting.

There's also the matter of Broli and Gotenks' headshots on the Serpantine Road storyboard..or whatever it is. o_o Plus the screen of Broli preparing his attack.

As for what I meant, I hope that we'll at least have the option to use a full human. :P Otherwise this'll be Super Butouden 3 all over again.

Isn't it? How much storing space does PSP's disc or whatever they use have?

Don't forget that Budokai 3 only uses up 1.8 of those 4 GB. Taking into consideration things like texture downsizing and reduced polycounts on the models.. they probably could have gotten away with just taking out a handful of characters instead of more than half, and still had room for new features.

I can't complain, though. It's still gonna be portable Budokai. Hell, Butouden 2 and 3 only had 10 characters each, and those are still my favorite DBZ games of them all.

Oh, and judging by the screenshots in the other thread, you can add #18 and Kuririn to the list. :)

Based off of the pictures I have seen, these are the CONFIRMED characters that will be in the game.

1. Goku

2. Vegeta

3. Kuririn

4. Piccolo

5. Future Trunks

6. Android 18

7. Pikkon

8. Broly

10. Frieza

11. Kid Buu

12. Jenemba

Of course there are some other obvious characters that we know will be in the game, but that was just a list of all of the characters that have been in pictures, meaning that they have officially been anounced.
