It's a 3D fighting/action game that uses/borrows content from DB Online, what's confusing you? :eh:
Well when I first seen footage of the game I thought It would be a normal dbz 3D fighting/action game. But as more pics came up on the web showing the character designs of DB online and what looked like to be screen shots of a open world type setting I just didn't know what the game was anymore. A 3D fighting game that we have been getting for years or a DB online kind of game but for consoles or maybe even both.

Wow! Mira and Towa :clap: So cool to actually see this happen!

This is great! This practically means the story from Dragonball Online lives!

Great job Dimps, I'm impressed.

Any word if Toriyama had any involvement? Most likely not, but it would be nice to know if he did.

As far as we can tell, that's pretty much what it's going to be. Just with some content from DBOnline (Characters, Customization, Story).

It wasn't "pushed"; it always was the 20th.

So is this game supposed to be an adaptation of Dragon Ball Online except it's a condensed fighting game instead?

I know Toriyama had involvement with the game, did he do the designs for Tora and the Supreme Kai of Time?

I don't think it's an adaptation of Dragon Ball Online. It's just using characters and other elements from it.

Did they say anything about a Public Demo for 360/PS3? I really wanna try it so if it turns out to be worth pre-ordering then I'll get it early and also it'd be my first time pre-ordering a Dragon Ball game as I've never done it before due to the games Bandai has released.. :|

Hopefully next years' fall.

Hopefully spring. From what I can tell, a couple months would do them good, but I don't think they'll get another year for this.

If Bandai are trying to get dragon ball back to what it was in the 6th gen then i think they will if Dimps pushed them for it.

It should be tomorrow so long as NBGI has plans for the press days, which are the 18th and the 19th, instead of just the public days, which are the 20th and the 21st.

Tokyo Game Show tomorrow, nice. Looking forward to gameplay-polish improvements, and hopefully Mr Chief-Developer (and friend) is better at the game this time round :D

Things looking forward to seeing:
- Non-beam signature attacks, i.e. Kaioken Attack
- All/most combos/signature moves connecting (i.e. Cells Satan slap or whatever you were calling it)
- Less one-sided battles, tight to-and-fro flurries, i.e. not one person playing punching bag like previous gameplay demos
- More info regarding created/DBO characters and the main plot, and I guess (hopefully) a badass trailer! :)

Things not looking forward to seeing:
- Potential 2+ player battles xD ! (Unless very impressively implemented)
