I've been wondering for a while now but is Piccolo the enemy in that picture? It's only possible to play as 4 in one team and as you can see, Gohan, Yamcha, Tenshinhan & Krillin are the playable ones.. but Piccolo is in that screen.
Training Gohan?

Sure seems that way, with Gohan punching him in the crotch.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

It's a good thing Piccolo doesn't have a penis :lol: .

It might just be showing off multi-player.

Split-screen would work, although at first it could look confusing but after a while people would eventually get used to it.

Split-screen examples:

Spike is gone? Thank goodness. UT and DBZ Kinect proved that their milk spoiled a long time ago. I just hope this new group doesn't become Spike Jr.

Maybe tomorrow I'll get a response from Namco Bandai / Tony S. regarding if this game is going to have a playable demo released on XBL/PSN.

Back in 2012 I asked Namco Bandai via Facebook if DBZ Kinect was going to have a demo and they said it wouldn't, so there's some hope for a yes or no at least.

DBZ Kinect is already short enough so if they gave it a demo there wouldn't be any reason to buy it, except for the Episode of Bardock. :P

Which like any show or animation is plastered all over the net eventually anyway.

The game looks amazing!

Running on the ground confirmed! :D

I'm way more excited about that than I should be.

Also, for those of you who remember IKevinX's deep videos, he's done one on the trailer. He basically slowly dissects everything about it and you can really see a whole lot that you just wouldn't otherwise catch, as well as get a better feel for the mechanics:

It's looking really good from that analysis.

I'm sure we all know what split-screen looks like :lol:


But yeah, At least a 2-player split screen would work out. Same as in the RB/Tenkaichi games.

I wonder ...... If DragonBall GT or DragonBall will make an appearance but we can't complain coz spike has moved out for better developers .I would tremble if this was a bad game but it seems good to me ...........I hated the UT gameplay mechanics hope none of that crap gets put in here
Someone hit me up when Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, Chiaotzu :lolno:, Goten, Buu, and Gohan :!: :!: :!: become relevant again :?

Yeah, and I'm too lazy to research the background of the new dev and their past work. Someone else here can possibly do that I hope :yawn:

Except I wanted to have a legal copy of Episode of Bardock not pirated/digital. I could've gone with the Japanese DVD but that didn't have English subs.

Can't be worse than the mediocre dev that DBZ was stuck to, besides, the gameplay looks like to be from Zenkai Battle Royale so that sold me right away regardless of how the graphics look like.
