I guess we could get Bon Para, with his brothers as part of his move(s).
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.

Or we could get all of them considering the main focus of this game is fights with more than two characters at the same time.

I'm already getting this game as soon as I can but if they announce that we can fight in 1vs 1 2vs 2 1vs 3 ect and 4 vs 4 is just the max then this will be a day 1 must for me.

I'm sure one character would be over powered for example.

1 vs 4: Character is like Broly and has 4x the health power and can charge ki faster.

1 vs 2: Character is like Radtiz only double the health and power and ki charges the same speed.

I would imagine that you could set the handicap yourself for those who want a challenge in VS mode

Super Saiyan God Goku or Arale-chan could very well take 1 Vs. 4, they're that powerful. :P

Of course more than likely we won't see Arale, but I wish.

-You can join in on one side or the other and overwhelm the other guy
-You can try blasting the other guy to give your teammate a chance ("struggle stun", see SPC vs SSJ2 Gohan)

Taken from a guy in gamefaqs...


well if they implemented that it would be great....imagine helping your teammate to win the struggle...

There's so many team they can have it's ridiculous.

Normal 4v4 (team loses if only one teammates gets KO'd)
Elimination 4v4
Captain 4v4

And juggernaut/survival type modes where the odds are against you.

I would be happy with this list. I'm pretty sure the story mode will likely have 1 vs. 1 matches, I do think 4 vs. 4 or 1 vs. 4 will make things more fun. I do think we need more matches that never happen like the second Sparking game did with Gohan and Videl fighting Cell and Freeza in Fusion Reborn.

Raditz being alive when Vegeta and Nappa arrive? (How does Goku get strong enough to fight them?)
Piccolo being alive in the fight with Oozaru Vegeta? (Piccolo is killed by Nappa before this fight even f***ing happens...)
Piccolo AND Krillin still alive for the SSj1 Goku and 100% Final Form Freeza fight? (Piccolo and Krillin die to make him go SSj in the first place! WTF!?)

Lets see how many more WTF moments we get before the release LOL :lol:

Graphics bad enough to be back in PS2 era with f***ing PS4 right around the corner, horrid story, following the 2 worst games in DBZ history, Multi colored Freeza Soldiers for no f***ing reason...yep. Odds are WAY in favor of this game sucking worse than the galaxy of this sucks camel dick. (or something else pretty bad lol)

They got SSjGod, big whoop. Kinect got f***ing SSj Bardock and it was the worst game of all time! (Yes, worst than E.T. the video game, no joke.) Disgrace to the second best what-if character in history.

Better get a TONxTON of amazing news along with a demo, or its already confirmed...
Right, so remember that "half of the story" thing I brought up? I think I figured out why you got banned from the Namco-Bandai page on Facebook.

Also, I'm loving Krillin's "not impressed" face. I hope we see more fun expressions in the game. It's something that's kind of missing from the games lately. It's not fun watching to static characters stand in an open field with emotionless eyes and weird mouth flaps...oh god Raging Blast was more like the show than I thought. BAM!! :lol:
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

I hated The Para Brothers. I hope to never see them again in any DB related media.

Is 1 vs 7 even possible? They've said its up to 4 players vs up to 4 players so I'm assuming you can only battle vs up to 4 on your own, but 3 more players can join you on your team. That's what I was already understanding...

Put me in the group of people not liking the story mode being dicked around with. From first appearances I can't see anything fresh about it - it's likely not going to have any effort put into making the team battles work in-story. I'm thinking more along the lines of "Vegeta and Nappa arrive with Raditz, the training bit is completely skipped and everyone is already as strong as they were after the training part", or Goku vs Freeza being changed to Goku, Piccolo, Gohan & Kuririn vs Freeza with the only change being that Kuririn didn't die. That's not interesting or fresh at all - it's just slightly altered to support new mechanics at the cost of accuracy.

On the other hand, I give zero shots about Goku's gi not being accurate. I don't like that Goku has like 7 variations of his Kame gi in the Spike games when they haven't given him all of his other alternates.
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 would be a cool thing if they included combined beam struggles somehow like 2 or maybe even 3 beams vs 1 super powerful beam.
