Pikelo?!
It's so absurd that I almost thought it was a new character :lol:
Ya can't spell "ignorant" without IGN. And what's with the large amount of dislikes, as there were in the Goku fight too? I laugh when people say this looks like BoZ.


Anyway, I'm fucking sold on this game now! Dimps destroyed Spike....with the help of Artdink beating Spike up but didn't have the power to finish it off because they're not experts like Dimps. Get the joke people?

Does the scan say what the game's going to be calling Freeza's race? I'm assuming it'll be just "Freeza clan" but I was wondering if the scan had denoted such or not.

How well do you all think this will sell ? And is there any chance of it getting a sequel ? Or will it be like street fighter iv where they add to the first one via dlc ?

It's just "Freeza's Clan/Race" as usual.

"Froze" is the name of a character in Dragon Ball Heroes: Victory Mission. He uses a Freeza clan Hero-type avatar for his character in-game.

Oh man, my hype for this game just keeps going higher and higher. I really don't want to get my hopes up too far, but...really, really hope I can score a PS3 before this thing comes out.

I'd say not to if we didn't know much about it but now we do and it's amazing and can only get better so get as hyped as you want,The game will do anything but disappoint.

Doing a small breakdown of this Vegeta vs Goku video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4U-5Vqkxxw
3:15 match start
3:24 Vegeta string into a homing followup, which hits Goku, who vanished behind Vegeta
3:30 vanishing stuff, till Vegeta launched Goku and follows is up with a Dirty Explosion super
3:46 Goku does a charge attack, which Vegeta blocks. Vegeta gets staggered and loses ALL of the green bar, meaning no defensive option
3:56 Vegeta transforms into Super Vegeta, also entire green bar is locked out till the green bar was completely filled
4:06 Vegeta combo followups into Machine Gun Ki Blasts, somehow it hits despite combo meter resetting, also this Super doesn't drain Ki despite being a Super Move (Dirty Explosion eats up 1 yellow bar)
4:11: combo into FAINARU FURASHU! Final Flash also doesn't consume yellow bar, which leaves me to the conclusion, that Super Vegeta negates the cost of Supers, which uses the yellow bar at least

Edit:
Ginyu Force are all getting into this game? TOO AWESOME! Also Barta and Jheese ultimates are looking awesome.

DB Xenoverse is not a DBZ simulator with fighting elements, it's a semi competent fighting/action game with DBZ simulation elements.

And at :55 For the pants you see "GT" again and you see a giru like robot in the beginning too. I posted this on the DB games fan-page and Treevax deleted my post.... :think: hmm somethings not right.

Oh, so judging from the story trailer, you will be there to prevent the bad guys of winning through sudden power boosts that didn't happen in the original.

When Gohan rushes on Raditz, Raditz gets the unholy boost and dodges (seen in the video).
When Piccolo fires his Makanko Sappo, Raditz dodges - either through an unholy boost or because Gohan didn't hurt him previously - and only Goku dies (seen in the pictures). You're up to make Raditz die too and fix it all.
When Cell and Gohan have their final struggle beam, Cell gets the unholy boost and Gohan will die, along with the planet and the whole solar system, if you don't intervene and fix this (seen in the video).
When Goku is fighting to push the Genki Dama on Boo, Boo likely gets the unholy boost, so you have to push with Goku to fix this (seen in the video).

And of course, hundreds of those instances will happen all along even the most minor events of the classic Dragon Ball story.
And... A possessed Mister Satan will beat down Goku (at the Cell Game maybe)? Goku must not believe his eyes about it!

That's a DBO robot. Sometimes they are bad guys, but they usually run the shops that sell mechanical devices on behalf of Capsule Corp. Like scouters and the chips you could put inside them.

I hope beam struggles make a return in this game. I was really disappointed to see that they weren't present in Battle of Z.

My hope for movie info died with Xenoverse :(

Oh well, at least Xenoverse looks really really promising!

Wondering to myself if Towa and Mira will be playable characters.

There is no reason to assume Mira won't be playable. On the other hand, Towa never did anything close to fighting....but if we can have Whis and Tarble playable in the past, they can do so with Towa too if they want.

Holy crap, your custom character can have a Frieza hover chair.

Day one buy.

Edit: Or it's just Frieza who can have it.

Those are't the Ginyu races, unless Gurd became a Majin...

Also, pretty sure that's just a Freeza NPC? The name literally says Freeza....

I think it's more red Female Majin being Jheese, green small fat Male Majin being Ghuldo and a blue Namekian being Barta. Although dat posing :o
TOKUSENTAI!

That Freeza looks like an NPC.
