Looks like they have finally improved the Kamehame-Ha beams.

I'll download the demo as soon as it hits the playstation network, won't be able to well play it until tomorrow after work.
So far the game has only reminded me of Legends and it if it plays well that would be great as we needed a legends type of game for quite awhile! My copy is pretty banged up from moving and playing it constantly since it's original release.. Finding new copies isn't that difficult though but prices sure went up<.<

Doesn't look a like a demo has been confirmed yet for Xbox Live.

Not exactly. It didn't used to look this good, at least to me it seems they've made an improvement.

Shouldn't the developers be nervous not us? We should be hoping not to be disappointed

I don't think people should judge a game on a demo. It would be funny if the game did better with reviews and sales then we all thought it would.

Ain't that the case with most dbz games?

Sorta looking forward to trying this demo. Hopefully I end up enjoying the gameplay, since I'm not really expecting much else from it.

Doubt they're gonna put Beerus in the demo, but would be nice to see earlier which name they go with.

I imagine it will probably be a version of the same demo that's has been seen a dozen times before now. Probably revolving around the Saiyan Arc battles, up to Vegeta's transformation. Typical heroes are the most likely ones to be selectable as well...maybe with SS Goku added in, because Super Saiyan.

Would love to be wrong though.

One game will not determine Namco's future with DBZ games. Namco has been around making DB games longer than you think.

From what I understand is that we are doing a Kanzenshuu game not with BoZ. If so then my PsN is TheGMGoken.

Well DBZ games have been selling poorly after 2007 or 2008. Seeing that RB2, UB and DBZFK bombed then it won't surprise me if they stop doing DBZ games for a while or just stick with making 3DS DBZ games for now if BOZ bombs. They have been working on this game since November or December of 2011, so two years in the making should be worth it. But then again, games being worked on for years does not mean they will be good though (Duke Nukem Forever and Aliens Colonial Marines).

Those examples don't apply since both Duke Nukem Forever and Aliens Colonial Marines were in development hell. Battle of Z just has a normal two year development cycle.

This makes me think. I wonder what this game looked like a year ago or early beta days :think:

For those who don't know, the demo is now up on JP PSN. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to download, though.
