If you think it's so laughable and beneath you, you don't have to respond about it.

Whoa, not cool man. Am I hurting you by not liking the font change? Am I hurting anyone at all by selling part of my collection because of it? No.
But you are trying to hurt me by replying with something like that. Gotta be a little bit more mature next time and watch how you reply, okay?

Back on topic, I really hope Dimps at the last second decides to release this for the Vita because it'd be so cool to have this on the go and I want to pick up a Vita but so far there hasn't been a title which has drawn my attention to it. Besides, Battle of Z's potential is only when played online so for places without WiFi (I wouldn't pay for 3G on it) that wouldn't be any good for me.

3DS came out in 2011 and so far there's been two Dragon Ball games for it but unfortunately they're Japan-only. :(

The 8th gen for handhelds has been sorta sucky. :|

On Namco Bandai's page, there's a lot of people asking for a PC release. MK9 got a PC release because of fan support. Xenoverse would mark the first DBZ game to be release on the PC if happens. Makes wonder why Budokai 1 - Battle of Z never got a PC release? PC gaming always been huge since the 90's.

And they're still releasing Storm Revolution on PC and they're making a re-skin of the Gundam VS (Rise of Incarnates) just for PC (albeit it will be free-2-play). I think Battle of Z would have been benefit with a PC release and if this game has 2v2 after all, It should be on PC as well.

they are already developing xenoverse for FOUR platforms (360 one ps3 and ps4), and they are too many already. Let them focus on these platforms, if they add other for day 1 release, it could be "not so good", you know?

Have a different team do the port like they did with the ports of Budokai 1,2 HD colection.

Fighting games don't seem to be very popular on the PC. Before MK9 and Super SF4 came out, I remember the last PC fighting game came out was MK4 and that was 1998 or 1999. There's MUGEN, but I'm sticking with games that are actual games and not stuff played by fans.

Which again, makes me wonder why they didn't release Battle Of Z on it specially since PC gamers tend to focus on Multiplayer excessive games, BOZ would be the best choice to start it out.

BOZ would have made a fun game on the PC. I remember I was surprise that Budokai 1 didn't get a PC release and Xbox release when the Gamecube release came out back in 2003.

Battle of Z would have been a fun game on PC with the addition of mods reskinning characters and such, plus putting some balance on those damn cards which some people have gotten and abused them.

I was looking through some screenshots, and this stood out to me:

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/ ... 0250_o.jpg

It says "Lv.01" above Piccolo's and Goku's heads on the scouter reading, obviously meaning "Level 1". So it seems this game may have some kind of leveling system.

Along with having "Time Patrol Trunks", I'm crossing my fingers really hard for some kind of console version of Dragon Ball Online (Even though the gameplay doesn't seem like it). But, of course, that's really grasping at straws.

Didn't Budokai 3 have a level system? I wonder if this will be similar. I love stats in RPGs. I would love a speed stat so your character gets faster. I WOULD MARK THE FUCK OUT if that happens

That'd be really cool. A visible difference in speed, defense, etc.

Just 2 days away from the Japan Expo. Should we expect something on July 2nd, or is it more likely to be one of the other days?

I don't think we should expect anything on July 2nd. Bandai Namco's European YouTube channel just scheduled live streams for July 3rd through 6th, so we should expect to see everything they have to show then.

I heard that the DBO storyline for Time Patrol Trunks takes place only during the Saiyan and Namek saga. I wonder how are they gonna mix things up in the Cell Saga since TPT is the same as regular Trunks, but older.

It's true. DBO got canceled while the TIme Machine Quests were on the precipice of interacting with Goku becoming a Super Saiyan versus Freeza.

I don't think any of that matters though, because the TMQs we did have don't match up with half the stuff we've already seen. Gurd wasn't in any of the altered events and was killed the exact same way as in the series. So they are probably just doing whatever they want and taking bits from DBO's bigger picture. (We still don't even know if we'll be getting Miira or Towa, which would be a big departure from the DBO mythos.)
