Oh sorry i didn't realize they were about the same thing. Guess I'm just so fed up with what they are doing with the franchise as of 2013.

I wish they would actually care more about what they give us. I know that if they stopped going for the damn beaten to death idea of 1v1 battles (you can only expand so much on that, come on) and do something more innovative and not a copy of BT3 like a free-roam DBZ multiplayer game where you make your own character with friends, own race, own gi, everything. I don't know where Goku and his family/friends are like a legend in this world and you can explore, look for DBs, fight other people online when you meet them or become friends. That sounds fun and that's just off the top of my head (No one say anything about DBO, that was only for lucky Koreans). What I'm getting at is I wish they would do something new and put some effort into it.
Maybe they could listen to fans for once, make more expansive worlds. That's truly my dream game. Anyway yeah I'm starting to think BoZ might just be the last game we get if it fails. And does anyone know why NB likes to release crap for only one group of people instead of releasing it world wide. Japanese get ZBR, Koreans get DBO which is apparently gone now and what do we get. Raging Blast series aka BT3 but prettier. :lol:

DBO wasn't only for "lucky Koreans". It may be shutting down in Korea, but the game is still up and running in Taiwan and Hong Kong for now.
Direct translations of the Korean DB Online timeline and guidebook.

Not to mention that even we can play it. Both you & me are playing it, and many others that live outside Korea, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.

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.

Well I got a KSSN because I'm from there. So is it wrong that I still play it in America?

If the KSSN is yours, no. Those who play the Korean version & are not from Korea (and thus, not having their own KSSN) are playing it illegally. Taiwan & Hong Kong versions though can be played legally anywhere, because they don't require anything similar to the KSSN.

I don't care for the Naruto outfit since I stop liking Naruto around 2009 or 2010. I will most likely won't use the outfit when fighting.

The only games since BT3 that could be considered a copy were RB 1 and 2 and those were inferior to BT3 in the long run.

As for the free roam DBZ game no company would take the time to build a DBZ game like you mention and do it justice for some odd reason. Treevax' character creator got the closest to us ever trying to attempt our own DBZ created story without someone building their own fan game with their own time and resources.

If we ever get Treevax's Raging blast 3 I hope Akira Toriyama is free to write the Hero Mode story or were able to add our Character to the canon story and change it that way.

If this game proves to be worthy of purchasing then I'll consider it for the PlayStation 3 otherwise it's J-Stars Victory Vs. only then.

I can play Super DBZ, Budokai 3, Tenkaichi 3, Infinite World and others on my PS3 so it's not as if I'm missing out on much from this still in development game. Hopefully by 2014 they've improved the game A LOT.

That's sort of irrelevant. Cool it's up in other places too. And yes I think they are lucky for getting DBO, am I wrong for thinking so?

Didn't say we couldn't play it, I am just wondering why they don't release things worldwide besides, that was not even the point of my post so why only address this part of it...we can't really play it without some ridiculous process to actually get it to function and even then it's not in English (the English patch does not help) and wow okay the game is for lucky Koreans, and lucky people that live in Hong Kong as well as lucky people living in Taiwan. Changes nothing. Geez why do people read a post, pick out the most trivial part that has nothing to do with the point, and criticize that while avoiding to answer the real question...

Yeah I know RB1 and 2 are inferior to BT3 but they still are copies. These were the games I was referring to. Same fight system, prettier graphics, smaller roster.

Yeah why is that? I really want a better DBZ game instead of a solely fighting game. You can only do so much with a formula you have beaten to death for years. I really think they should put more effort into their games. What I mean is I look at a game like B:AC (I know it has nothing to do with DBZ but roll with it :D ) and I can tell that there was effort put into that. You can tell they cared when that game was being made. But when I look at DBZ games I can't find anything not done already, nothing fun, nothing that makes me want to buy it other than the fact that it has DBZ in the title. They are just producing games without care.
On Treevax's stuff, I don't really like his idea of Raging Blast 3 at all. All he wants is a more in-depth character creation aspect with an illusion of ground damage and anime-like graphics, more annoying boss battles and same gameplay as RB/BT series. I would like something different. That is too much of the same crap.
That would be cool to change the story line of DBZ based on what our character did. That would be new. Just tired of being trapped in a tiny virtual box to fight 1v1 with someone. Formula is getting boring.
Thanks for actually replying to what I said and I agree with you. I just don't know why they won't take the time to make a DBZ free roam game. :thumbup:

Are any of you guys interested in seeing this getting released on PC?

Dark Souls and Naruto being on Steam might make NB realise there's another market for them.

It's not too late for some other titles, the HD collection would be awesome to have on PC.

J-Stars Victory Vs. over this would be a much better choice.

They can just boot up PCSX2 and play whichever PS2 games they want in HD plus with the original soundtrack.

JStars would be good if they don't nerf the DBZ characters. We'll see but if they are nerfed I don't want to play as a weak, slow Goku who cannot fly...
