Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
If this really is a Dimps game, at least a traditional 2D Dimps game, then any potential excitement I may have ended up having just dropped by half. The 2D fighters were alright, but not how I prefer to experience a Dragon Ball Z era game.
That said, this clear image of the "Namek-like planet with a birdcage-like structure" has gotten my attention. While I would have preferred a clean image of the "hourglass planet with ties to Buu", this grassy world has some interesting details. It now appears to be a planet more like where the Kaio reside. The house even looks like Kaio's little place. There is also a tree...with fruit...and another structure...maybe a school house? Perhaps this is the Shinjin home world of Kaishin? =P
Kidding. The above mentioned tidbits are interesting, and I guess it could be possible, but I don't think they'd be including something like that. I guess we'll have to wait and see though, but as of this moment, I'm definitely more interested in the potential information than the actual game.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
I hate to admit it, especially after the (so I'm told anyway, as I haven't played them yet) disappointments that were Ultimate Tenkaichi and Battle of Z...but the seeming return of a character creator plus completely original locations has me pretty excited to see what comes of this game.
Especially since I hope to have a PS3 by the end of the year/early next year at the latest.

Exactly. The Budokai games are great games, but they are not great Dragon Ball Z games. They would have been great Dragon Ball games though.TheDevilsCorpse wrote:If this really is a Dimps game, at least a traditional 2D Dimps game, then any potential excitement I may have ended up having just dropped by half.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter.

Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. 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.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
There's virtually no information there, which is why we didn't note any of it on the home page - there's nothing to say.
The systems are PS4, PS3, and 360 (which we knew). The game's release date, price, genre, and number of players aren't announced, and obviously there's no CERO rating yet.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
If it's Dimps then I'm going to bet that they will slap the Budokai name on it for marketing reasons.

Hopes it's not Dimps for the same reasons. The 2d fighter just can't fully capture the DBZ experience in my opinion. If it is Dimps, then my hope is they are making a 3d fighter. But we won't know until more inform comes out. It's already annoying that they keep dredging out fighters with the same damn story, but to go back to a 2d fighter would be a huge disappointment.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
There hasn't been a new DBZ 2D fighter on a home console in nearly six years. The 3D DBZ Simulator crowd basically had the entire PS3/360 generation to themselves.

Maybe that's just me, I'm not necessarily a 2d fighter fan. I was back in the days when street fighter and MK were big, but prefer 3d now, especially when it comes to dragon ball.
But a good DBZ mmorpg would be the dream game though...man.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
Please, make it Budokai/Burst Limit like game. Or better yet, an RPG. Or (the best option) take break from DB games for at least a 2 years.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
Nope. Considering since then we've had games like RB1, RB2, Ultimate Tenkaichi,DBZ Kinect, and BOZ, all of which consistently get criticized and really aren't that great. We've had multiple games that "capture the experience" but either way we also have a group who want a new budokai game as well.dualist wrote:And you don't think going to a 2d fighter is taking a step backwards?Super Saiyan Prime wrote:There hasn't been a new DBZ 2D fighter on a home console in nearly six years.

.
I'd pick a good 2d budokai game with improvements to the budokai system at this point . No more 3D for awhile . No more games like BoZ. Especially since it's been multiple years since a proper 2d fighter has come out
I honestly dont think dbz games can take any more step backwards, than they already have. The last one in particular was such a step back in certain ways, that it wasn't even funny.

I hear you, 2d fighters just aren't my thing, but I know plenty if people enjoy them. I've just been over them for quite sometime. I actually don't even like fighters, just play them because they are dragon ball.
Crazy how this series has such a loyal fan base and they just cant seem to get it right.
DBO, for example, could've been amazing in the right hands, but they blew it. And they'll continue to just slap games together.

They already did. We got Battle of Zcoola wrote:take break from DB games for at least a 2 years.
Budokai games are good games but the style doesn't fit DBZ. If they never had DBZ characters and attacks I probably wouldn't even play them.
The Goku/Vegeta + Goku/Cell make it look like 2D is pretty much out the window for this game.
2D fighter would fit DB perfectly. I love Advanced Adventures side-on battles a lot.
An RPG DB game would be amazing though.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
The problem with those isn't because they are 3D games though. Raging Blast was a step backwards, Raging Blast 2 didn't go as forward as it should have, and Ultimate Blast & Battle of Z are just bad games.Silkman3003 wrote:Nope.

My sentiments exactly, can't think of a better series to make an rpg or mmorpg for, especially considering the new retcon and adding to the lore.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
Could this be a Dimps-Spike co produced game?
My dream game would be for Dimps to make a DB game covering from the start of DB to the end of DB like Budokai 3 and Spike to make a Tenkaichi game from BOX to EOGT and the movies.
Maybe oneday.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
We haven't seen any gameplay videos yet. If it's Dimps then it could be a 2D figher or maybe a 2D mixed with 3D. We had enough with Spike's BS after 2007. The Sparking gameplay was getting old by 2009. We need something new and fresh which this game could give us.

Re: The First PlayStation 4 Game Cometh
Saint Seiya: Sanctuary Battle is like another Dynasty Warriors bs game except when it comes to the fighting it's actually pretty good, same goes for Saint Seiya: Brave Soldiers (thank god this one doesn't have the shitty Dynasty Warriors clone to it).Drev wrote:Saint Seiya Senki (by Dimps) for PS3 was good (at least the duels 1v1), but Brave Warriors is too much "Storm-like", and in fact it sucks.
