It just goes to show that "normal" people don't care about Dragon Ball Z any more, the audience for it is now smaller despite that there's still plenty of fans willing to pay for various merchandises that they like.

This is why FUNimation needs to release the original Dragon Box: Dragon Ball and Dragon Box: The Movies and then I'm all good (the GT US Singles are technically the US Dragonbox GT).

Or ANY anime for the matter. Heck, even the latest manga/animes like Naruto and One Piece don't get talked about much in the US because their not too fond of anime like their used to, but let's not try to derail the thread.

Anyway...If this game didn't have any what-ifs would've looked at the mission list since we all know the story, but since there are what-ifs the the company spoke highly of, ain't looking! SPOILEEEEERS!!!

SWEET! I love the way they did Trunks with his moves and animations involving his sword. I can imagine what they would do with Tapion if there is a sequel or something.

Y'know, this goes to show that they are on a higher pedestal than Spike. The only thing Spike has over Artdink is the combat depth, but other than that, Artdink is doing a better job making the characters feel like the characters, using creativity, and etc. I mean in the RB games, Trunks only used his sword for just his signature and his ultimate. They could've put in the BT3 animations and then just improve on them, but nooooo. That's one of the reasons why there ain't no Tenkaichi now or as of yet cuz they were running out of ideas!

Loved it, looks like some characters are really fast, you can also enhance your characters speed by using cards. I guess the flight speed issue has been eliminated :P

The flying speed still feels so slow, they really should fix this damn issue because Spike allowed the user to get extremely quickly back to the enemy by pressing A twice on RB2 and such.

A game where Future Trunks constantly uses his sword? Great.

The music? Great, it reminds me a lot of some tracks I hear in Street Fighter.

That BGM is from DBZ :lol: . It's Trunk's theme song. Called Battle Unlimited. Also didn't Trunks(SSJ) in Tenkaichi 3 use his sword all the time except for kicks.

Never played the Tenkaichi series. Only owned Budokai 3, Raging Blast 1 and 2, and Ultimate Tenkaichi.

You really need to man. Try BT2 and BT3. Trust me, once you play them for a while, you gonna be like most of us that think that it's superior to both of the RB games which are at the bottom of the totem pole.

Man i'm really hoping that whoever is working on the next DBZ game is working on it for the PS4/XB1. I want to see those rocks getting smashed look more realistic!

If they do a sequel then I hope they add more detail to the story. So far, the story mode in BOZ seems pretty weak.

Seems like rather than a what if story it's basically Raging Blast 2's "story" mode but with cut scenes. Only what if(s) so far is choosing your own character and Raditz.

Played some more online the other night, and to be honest, I loved it. If I happen to have the extra money...I juuust might pick this up day 1 (Also, I really want that Sage Mode Costume).

That stage is HUGE in comparison to the players! I guess it makes sense when for when you have 8 people on the map at once. Still looks really fun. As long as there is a community for this game and I can see some really interesting and memorable experiences coming out of this game.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

The music? That's one of the most memorable moments of DBZ's history, just how can you not be aware of it?

Regardless if you're only used to the US music you should at least acknowledge this popular theme of Trunks.

I have only heard the Faulconer score, Yamamoto's tracks in Kai and the video games I played, and the horribly overused Kikuchi tracks in Kai.

For people who are still wondering if Offline multiplayer is in the full game(esp since the demo didn't have it besides the missions), here is a good way to find out, or atleast get a better idea.

This is the mission List
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fiylOTUeJM

This holds most of the scans/pics/videos, if not all
http://www.saiyanisland.com/tag/dragon- ... ttle-of-z/


If in the scans/pics/videos, you see a team or battle on the opposing team that doesn't match any of the missions in the mission list, and isn't related to online play(so it has all the original character names for the characters in the HUD),then it has offline vs. If not..well..

I'm gonna try and analyze it a bit and see, though it's going to take a bit of time.
