EDIT: Just watched the Japanese one. Good to see FLOW getting some play. Can't help but wonder what Kageyama's up to, though.
Bills also appeared in the Garlic Jr. Saga Dragon Ball Heroes trailer, watching as the villains and heroes battle it out.

Nothing. Since the Yamamoto incident he's sadly been out of the game openings and all we're getting are rehashed songs from other media :(
I miss the days of Super Survivor, Kiseki no honoo yo, Progression and Battle of Omega.

The best part of this trailer was definitely Base Gohan kicking Broly's face and the Legendary Super Saiyan not caring about it :lol:

If this game just had a freaking cancel or follow up system, it would be a good game -_-.

Which you know for a fact it doesn't, based on seeing people playing it for the first time that don't even fully grasp the control scheme?

If they wanna make this game look good, they need to start showing cancel combos. Until I see those, I stand by my position on this game being garbage.

Unbelieveble. The game will use RB1 and Ultimate Tenkaichi soundtrack. This can't be happening..

Japan, Europe and North America at the very least, actually.

Yeah because the gamers play the demo and realize its a crappy half assed game and dont buy the full product when it comes out. Demos dont hurt the sales of games if the games are actually good.

Even so, that doesn't mean that Super Saiyan Bardock and Vegetto will only be available in the game by pre-ordering. It might just mean that you take a longer time to unlock them through regular gameplay than most characters.

Namco Bandai has done this before. The Collector's Edition of Naruto Storm 2 came with a code to unlock Minato right away. He was still unlockable through playing the game, he was just the 3rd last to be unlocked.

I wouldn't mind if that were the case, but most of us are just going off the way they worded the statement:
The Pre-order offer comes in with 2 exclusive in-game DLC Characters, SUPER VEGITO and SUPER SAIYAN BARDOCK. Those two characters will be available solely via pre-order across Europe and Australasia!
Also, it seems this game really is still in development, to the point where even character animations aren't finished yet. At around the 2 minute mark, when SS2 Gohan charges Dabra, he changes to a bulky, generic character model with no skin. xD

Oh. Yeah, that does heavily imply that. Still, they keep going back and forth with the stuff they say will be exclusive for pre-orders and what people will or will not get.
Kikuchi soundtrack was supposedly confirmed before, and now it's nowhere to be seen in the gameplay we're seeing.

Hold up, Super Vegetto is only playable in Europe and Australia?

Don't get bent out of shape and use it for more hate fuel - all that's said was there will be a code to unlock him that comes with the PAL version. As stated above it could be similar to other games where he's already playable, but must be unlocked later in the game. Thus just giving you the character at the start.
