Now that SS Bardock's QR code has been released, does the guy have anything new in terms of Supers or his Ultimate, or is it just recycled?

Eh, received my free DBZFK copy of Namco Bandai but it didn't even come with the Super Saiyan hair, manual or anything.

The cover has "PROMOTIONAL COPY NOT FOR RESALE", it's colour-less and the box is broken plus the cover's a bit ripped off at the back.

Sure sounds like Namco Bandai. That sucks, though.

Sounds like a review copy.
"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.

I think it's just a recycled given how that DBZ Kinect is a lazy game.

Just finished playing Dragon Ball Z For Kinect for the first time, and I liked it very much, though it had some flaws I noticed a lot.

1. Raising up the arms to defend from rival's attacks didn't work very well.
2. Charging up Ki took some time to find the right position and space.

I guess if I had more space I wouldn't have problems with Charging Ki.

Namco Bandai was cheap by sending me a Promotional Copy without the QR Cards or the Super Saiyan hair but at least the disc has the full game. I might buy the retail edition to have a proper copy of the game, and well, to be honest, Episode of Bardock makes it worth it too.

Btw, Episode of Bardock was short and sweet. I'll definitely watch it again.

I have to ask, how come there's so much awfully bad negative reviews surrounding this game?

The only gameplay flaws I found on this game were a few poses that I couldn't do properly probably because they weren't programmed correctly, but other than that it plays really well.

Music flaws? It only features 14 music tracks. Opening intro? There isn't.

The game copied to the HDD is 3.40 GB not really big or anything, best thing about it is that it makes the loadings a lot faster.

It's as if different people have different opinions. That can't possibly be true though.

1) The last four mission of Majin Buu saga on Normal difficulty were quite hard, and even in Easy difficulty it felt like Normal mode, so I guess Hard is Z-mode (Extremely Hard).

2) Whenever I play this game I tend to get hot and sweaty so the less clothes I wear, the better it is. :P

3) Here's how the Promotional Edition cover looks like:

Yeah... that's the part ripped off.

I did and I sold it to CeX for £17 (cash -- Store Credit was £23).

If they hadn't sent me a Promotional Copy I would've kept it (Retail Edition).

So can somebody tell me, can you even play as the villains in this game? I never saw any screenshot that shows you playing as Cell or Freeza.

Although i google'd and found images that showed Cell JR vs Fat Buu and Zarbon vs Mystic Buu, so i think there's my answer.

Wow, what a shameless rip-off. Glad I didn't buy it.

Doesn't help that they took the one of the things that made Ultimate Blast okay-ish.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I saw flaws on DBZFK, but most of them were because of lack of content (longer story mode, more fights, more modes, more music tracks, custom character).

It's down to everyone's opinion which is the worst game, most of the hate that the game got in the past was solely based on what the viewers saw and not played it themselves.
