I think it's safe to say reaching 90k now won't take too long now, the big jump will be going to 100k.

Since the fans are helping Namco Bandai gathering the 100k likes I hope they'll make it worth our time. The other games didn't require 100k likes or any likes at all.

That's because I told a good friend to make a video about it.

Makes me wonder how long they have been working on this game? We got DBZ for Kinect last year which most likely took half a year to work on it since it was Ultimate Blast with Kinect Controls.

It depends what the game is, if it's BT4/RB3 probably shortly after Nostal spoke to them about it, that is if it's still Spike. I hope they state how long they have been working on this game. :)

You told him?

Strange, I sent him a message about it and we talked then lastly he decided to post a video about it. But well, doesn't really matter what matters is that Namco Bandai gets their 100k likes as they want.

He could've posted it a lot earlier so we'd get the likes more quickly.

He was waiting for me to send him some images before he started. Guess he only used one.

Only more or less 12k likes left, no longer 14k likes any more. I can't wait to find out what the game is about and who's developing it. :)

Edit: Shared it again somewhere else so that more and more are aware of it if they aren't already.

I'm not optimistic on this being a big project anymore. Namco Bandai just had their Global Gamer's Day event for 2013, and no Dragon Ball content was featured. They flew in press from around the world, and it's a better stage to demonstrate a new game than the likes of E3, or Gamescom.

I hope it will be something good, I'd like a DBZ game to get an average score of 70% (Metacritic) again, I believe the last one on a console was Burst Limit. I do think if they were to do a really good job RB3/BT4 could get that, but a BL2 would be so much better.

I'll end up buying whatever they release anyway, I always do. :P

I'm not use a proxy to like a facebook page for a game that is not might not be anything special. If nothing was shown at the Global Gamer's Day event then I'm starting to think we might get something lame. If Namco Bandai wants to hype up this game then they would shown something at the Global Gamer's Day event.

Have they announced Dragon Ball stuff at past Global Gamer's Day events?

Dragon Ball Z for Kinect was announced at last year's event.

It's definitely not going to be more minor than Kinect, so I don't think the decision not to show it at the event means anything too significant.

It's just a matter of time now, we won't have to wait months any more.

Edit: 89k tomorrow I'd guess. :P
