And it shows Bills' temple located above Gizard Wasteland (the place where Goku fought Vegeta in the Saiyan Saga).

I guess we could have just waited a couple of days to get an answer. I assume this probably explains how Super Saiyan God can be utilized too...

So not used to hearing a voice put to Tori-bot (especially the Giru voice). XD

Liking that ssjg promo art; it makes good reference material for art since Heroes promo images resolution quality are generally so sharp and clean.

James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Woo DBH looks so fun. But I wonder do Japanese kids play these Arcade games all day like a home console that trailer shows a lot of locations to fight in, how would someone complete that and still allow the guy behind you to have his turn at the game? Wouldn't playing a Arcade all day cost a lot of money? A red Toriyama bot, cool. :D

It's his hands more than anything else. Just shrinking the character model's arm thickness down makes the hands look humorously larger than they actually are.

I think ssjg Goku looks better in ZBR, but it's mostly a graphics thing

I was talking about the picture DC posted. The way the pink hair and red eye color just seem like a bad photoshop edit to me. They way some of these old AF pics are.
But yeah the actual ingame model with his hands sure looks like a joke too.

Limit Break Kamehameha is huge! I like that DBH has that DBZ B3 Earth exploding gimmick. Makes a normal attack seem so much more awesome.

Its not really. SSJ3 Goku does the same thing with a Super Kamehameha. Its only a large Kamehameha for the team attack, on its own its small.

What's this?

I know Duel Masters, and Card Fight Vanguard have shows that tell kids the latest merch available, as well as a battle. Is this the Dragon Ball Heroes equivalent?

Does Heroes even allow Player duels? I thought it was all vs the computer.

I guess that makes sense, I just never heard of it at all before.

Yeah, Heroes Road G is pretty much the final nail in the coffin that proves that they're using DBH as a representative of what happens when you give Dragon Ball the CoroCoro Comics game series treatment. DBH is basically the Beyblade/Duel Masters/Vanguard of Dragon Ball.

Doesn't a SS3 Kamehameha blast forth from the Earth? (Think Vegeta's Final Flash from DBZB3) while LBK blows up a portion of Earth akin to the Spirit Bomb? Meaning the LBK is a bigger energy blast?

Like I said it's only large in the team attack. The regular size as seen at the end of a combo is tiny. Skip to around 2:40. There we see the same hand positions, but limit break is really small
