"DBZ: Battle of Z" (360/PS3/Vita) On-Going Discussion Thread

[dbboxkaifan]

Think of it as an early DLC exclusive and then the later owners will have to wait weeks or months till they get the characters on the marketplace to download.

Super Saiyan God Goku would make more sense being a DLC character than Super Vegito.

Do you think that it will be like Rb2 where they will give codes on facebook or something?

When did they do that? A while back I was trying to hunt down for DLC codes to get the special costumes but nothing.



I wonder if by using a gamesave I could get these costumes.

[SSJ6Goku]

I'm disappointed they'd made Super Saiyan Vgito and Bardock as pre-order bonuses. It makes me think they don't have confidence in the game. The Goku with Naruto's costume makes sense...thats a new look and there are probably licensing reasons to limit that to pre-order. But Vegito and Bardock? No reason to do it other than lack of confidence.

[SSJ6Goku]

also new scans and the new box arts

[dbboxkaifan]

Is the Super Saiyan God Goku cover still available via reversible?

[Nexic_Breaker_D]

I wanna see the spirit bomb in action!!!! Looks interesting

Yeah, I liked that one better.

Broly's hair looks weird.

DLC are made for additional content they hadn't time to add in the game before its actual release or for very special bonus content such as Goku in the Naruto Sage Mode outfit.

No, DLC is made for people who are willing to buy their games in bits and pieces. ALL DLC should be part of the original game, and not be an extra for extra money. Every single piece of DLC is just "Oh, we didn't finish the game in time for release, but instead of delaying it and finishing it let's just put it out as is and then charge people extra money to get the rest of the material to have a complete game!" nonsense. The entire thing is a scam, plain and simple. The thing that surprises me is that people have actually bought into it.

[Big Momma]

The DLC will most likely be released for Non-Preorders at a later date. I dunno why everyone is getting so upset over this.

[PhoenixEX]

That cover looks so awkward.
It would be slightly better if Trunks and Broly weren't in the cover.

I liked the other cover better, here's hoping for reversible covers.

Where did you see that? I don't see Broly on the scans..

Broly and Trunks are on the top, two very small characters next to the title.

If that's the case, then you clearly see how big assholes the companies are, like Capcom which pissed me most, but normal good games are complete games, with DLC being made later as bonus, like some costumes, additional character or short additional story. Also, those games usually are supported for long time onwards, so if you buy the game two years after the release, you can still grab the DLC.
I think that these small companies or small profit games should be stripped down from the right to even make DLC's, unless it is repairing patch. Or better, to not developing anymore DB games, it will save them money and our growing grudge.
They are pouring oil to flames infinitely since the current gen, I'm mostly curious about the sales of BoZ, reviews and the game itself.

I really miss the times, when I saw trailer for Budokai 1, and was like WOW! After playing games on Super Famicon and those usually bad PS1 ones. Then I read announcement about sequel later and was looking forward it and so happy,
and this trend continued even with Budokai Tenkaichi series. But since current gen, my reaction is usually: ''Well, what they will screw up now?''

I have a bad feelingthat we won't get Super Saiyan Grade 2 Vegeta...

No DLC is not a scam...when done right. Yes there are companies that abuse this power but most will go out of their way to ensure the money is spent is worth while. And in many cases it is. For example Naughty Dog has just announced that they will be going back to make a new extended chapter for the Last of Us. They are getting every one back together(actors and such) post production to build something new for fans. Borderlands 2 did a similar thing by building 3 additional missions(one inspired by Skyrim I believe) months later. It's not always a scam, but what these guys are doing isn't exactly the right way to go about it.

[MCDaveG]

Sincerely, being it on me, I would focus on making good and complete game with no DLC as fans are pissed off (Look sometimes on European Bandai FB profile, those people-fans are shameless angry animals.... )
and if the game was good, make some additional characters, like some movie characters or such. I think that Injustice DLC packs are totally awesome and Netherrealm is doing it right since the last MK.
But making game, that is uncertain after long line of fails and pushing people to preorder it as they will obtain characters as DLC is downright shameless and rude.... I won't repeat myself about how DLC's in DB games work again.

[dbboxkaifan]

Namco Bandai for Ultimate Tenkaichi featured a great cover yet for this one it just seems like they gotten lazy and decided to not put much effort into it.

Version 1:


Version 2:


But well, I guess I'd have to go with Version 1 cover as it's clean, organised, decent and no characters were randomly thrown around as it is on Version 2. Anyhow, here's hoping that it's reversible so both covers are included but if not, then no biggie.
