You'd be surprised by the number of people who just don't want anything to do with GT. Honestly, free DLC would be the best approach for GT characters. It pleases the people who want nothing to do with them while pleasing the people that do want them.

I think if there was ever a time to correct GT continuity errors, this what-if game would be perfect.

"Oh, you like GT?" comment.. WTF was that.. not cool at all man. So are they saying that Dimps and Spike were desperate so they added GT characters into their games when there were clearly more Z characters that could've been included?
1. They might hate GT just as much as most fans
2. He thought GT was hated
3. What you said(I agree with this one)
4. He's an ass

I'm choosing number 3
I don't get it. If he thinks the fans hated GT, then why did they go out of their way adding GT characters back in T2 and T3? It doesn't make sense at all.

Because Dimps and Spike made the game. They don't make them anymore. The new team starts with an A(NO PUN)

I know, I'm talking about as far as not wanting them in any of the games point blank period, which is ridiculous because like others have said regardless of how the GT story was in the anime, IN THE GAMES, the characters are cool to play as. So all in all completely blacklisting GT would be a bad move on the game developers part.
You hit it right on the nail. Who doesn't want to see a beam clash of a 10x Kamehameha with a Final Shine attack? GT characters have awesome moves and are fun to play with!

Dimps and Spike also made Burst Limit and Raging Blast. How do you explain those games not having GT characters?

I'm saying the new game designers didn't like GT or thought the fans hated GT. So they not going put them in MOST LIKELY maybe as a DLC.

Burst Limits - It didn't even have a Boo Arc. Doesn't need an explanation
RB - More or less just the popular characters
RB2 - Movies Characters

GT characters and Movie characters became more common after Budokai 3. I always thought they were more popular with American fans then with Japanese fans going from what other people have told over the years?

I think Movies are more popular in USA and GT is slightly more popular in Japan. But not enough for toys.

I think people want a complete collection of characters even if it's the character hates. Bio Broli is the one of the hated character in the series, but I think some people want him just for the stake of the character collection.

I want all the characters we possibly can, I don't care if the developers don't like Gt that is like saying I don't like Goku don't include him. :x
"There are many types of monsters that scare me: Monsters who cause troubles without showing themselves, monsters who abduct children, monsters who devour dreams, monsters who suck blood… and then, monsters who tell nothing but lies. Lying monsters are a real nuisance: They are much more cunning than others: They pose as humans even though they have no understanding of the human heart; they eat even though they’ve never experienced hunger; they study even though they have no interest in academics; they seek friendship even though they do not know how to love. If I were to encounter such monsters, I would likely be eaten by them… because in truth, I am that monster."

More or less. But also, if the developers were creative, they could make him an interesting character to play as, given his exotic physiology and appearance. His backstory at that point should be completely irrelevant.

I'd have a different view of that, if the developers are making characters in and out based on the feelings of the fan, then I doubt that'll get them far. There are some fans that rather dislike Cell Arc or certain characters, yet they somehow made it in. Of course, canon and whatever nonsense will pop up, but considering it's a game, canon shouldn't been an issue (imo). :think:

I highly doubt that including GT characters, will make people not buy the game, considering that it didn't stop fans from buying Sparking! series and Budokai series. If it does break some fans because of GT characters being in a game, then I have no words for that. :lol:

They can do a what if Goku was never turn into a kid. I think Goku could still find a way to go SSj4 if he was adult.

They can easily do a bullshit plot device since this is a game.
Goku: My tail grew back?
Goku: Wht's going on with my body!?
Goku: *SSJ4 transforms*
Goku: What is this?

I don't mind playing a GT game. After all, we've played DBZ games for a decade. Making a GT with a story mode would be fresh on our mind.

How does a tail work for SSJ4 when it was deemed useless after SSJ was achieved. Yet in GT it somehow got a meaning again. Why call Tails useless if they could be used for a penultimate SSJ Form
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!
