Yea, let me interupt you right there, Iam in one of my ranting moods....

No matter who they pick to be playable fighters in these games, some people are gonna be left out. I just think its really anoying when people complain that certain people arent in the game when theres well over 100 Fighters! You can't just be happy?

Ok, Iam gonna sound really old but... back in my day, we were lucky to get 10 fighters. 10 fucking fighters! I'd play those games over these Budokai games. Not to say these games today suck, but I love the classic fighting game set up. 2-d, one on one "Street Fighter" type. No effin capsules. No freakin crazy controlls.

With that said though, a shit load of time and effort does go into these newer game. They are beautifull and deeper then any 90's Dragonball game could ever be. Just apreciate what they give you. Its not that bad.

So true. I think that the thing people are complaining about, however, is that there are a lot of wasted character slots. The creators choose to place a nameless henchman rather than GT Kid Goku? I mean, if GT is going to be featured in the game, you're going to need Kid Goku! It's like making a new Super Smash Bros that will feature characters from the Mario Bros series, and they don't include Mario. Kid Goku is seen much more in GT than SSJ4 Goku, no? Tao Pai Pai, Kid Goku and Kamesennin are in the game, but Piccolo Daimao isn't? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Daimao a little more important than MANY of the characters in this game?

And the thing that really brings my piss to a boil is that MANY of these characters/gi were in previous games! Goku in blue gi? Teen Gohan in saiya-jin gi? Damn, WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?

Relax!

They're probably saving characters like Piccolo Daimao for the next game. That's the point! Obviously there is going to be another Sparking game. I too am hoping for certain characters like Kid Goku in GT and more of the henchmen.

I think a better analogy would be a Mario game without Waluigi. o:

Filler characters aren't that important.

And like others have mentioned, here we have a game with over 70 unique individuals and their many shapes and forms available, this is an absolute record in fighting games, and yet you're still complaining like little kids who got the Blue ranger for christmas instead of the Red one. >.>;;

Right, because we all know chibi GT Goku was a filler character who didn't fight anyone important. Except Lood. Oh yeah and Ledgic, and the Sigma Force, and the Sigma Cannon, and Rild in three forms, Baby, Gohan, Goten, Baby Vegeta in three different forms, Freeza, Cell, Super 17, Haze Shenron, Rage Shenron, Oceanus Shenron, Nouva Shenron, and Omega Shenron. Am I forgetting anyone else?

Oh yeah that's right, chibi Goku is infact the only worth while character in all of GT.

Urge to kill rising... rising......

EDIT: I have no idea what I was thinking here. Eh.

I wonder if they listen to us? They finally gave us the old green guy, I just hope the young Piccolo Daimaou and old Picoolo Daimaou are both costumes of each other and finally the Cyborg Tao, please if you guys are really listening to us, give us Black in the Mech and make a DB saga with what Connan said.

With the talk of new additions to the games, wouldn't it be better to wait it out from now on? I mean you'll get the game early and that's great, but later you'll just end up complaining about what your game lacked, post character requests (to seemingly nobody), and in the end you'll end up buying the "greatest hits" version. It's a pretty crazy cycle..

Cyborg Tao Pai Pai and Piccolo Daimaou. There is a God after all.

And He lives nowhere on the Western Hemisphere

fps_anth · Post by **fps_anth** » Thu Dec 28, 2006 3:44 pm

*imports*

There is a God.

Edit: I think that's all of 'em:

The black and white image behind the Pilaf Robot looks like a slight transformation, which means that our characters are:

Freeza's Soldier
Appule
Pilaf Robot
Pilaf Robot Transformed
Piccolo Daimao (*squeals*)
Cyborg Tao

Meh, I want GT Kid Goku. The next Sparking...when will it come out? What system will it be available on? Find out next time on...Dragon Ball ZEEE!

So basically they're putting in everything I wanted originally. That's just great. Oh well, I guess if they ever release a Special Edition version with the extras for the NA Wii I suppose I'll re-buy the game. I'm bound to get a Wii eventually anyways.

Looks slight from THIS angle.

So....any news on a Wii freeloader?

I personally don't like how there's a bajillion different characters. I'd rather have a handful that are highly developed and filled with a whole ton of moves a la Soul Calibur 2 than fifty thousand characters that all give you about ten seconds of amusement before getting stale.

Last Son of Krypton · Post by **Last Son of Krypton** » Thu Dec 28, 2006 7:29 pm

I don't like that either, mAc. The developers are REALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel to cram in as many characters as they can. Next thing you know they'll have the two ogres from Hell.

C'mon, ain't like you buy the games anymore anyway, Supes. I think your last game was Budokai 3?

I still borrow them, Conan

But I really don't like that every last character is getting put into this game. It does make them stale.
