WOW!!
I'm so happy with the game! Funimation's dubbing is pretty good, although it through me for a loop when I heard both Christopher Sabat and Sean Schemmel as narrators. I thought they were in bad-character, but it turns out they were just using their regular voices.
It took me until I found out you can wish for certain characters as narrator to find that out.
Animation wise, it's fantastic. Everything just looks awesome. I love how vibrant all the colors are, and how you can change the colors of characters' outfits (although I don't think Vegeta doesn't look good in orange, nor Chichi in the red all that much.) I like the reinterpritations of the characters' moves, such as Vegeta's Big Bang Attack, Chichi's Power Slugger and Super Power Slugger, and Super Saiyajin.
Oh, and Chichi as a playable character? She's awesome! I think it's the coolest thing that she can use Nyoibou, Kintoun, and the Banshou Fan (which oddly enough they call the "Banana Fan" in this game. I don't think they even did that in the dub. o_O; )
There are pleanty farmiliar parts to the styles and moves of the characters. For example, Chichi's fighting stance looks similar to Chun-Li's, while one of Goku's punching attacks looks very similar to Ryu, Ken and Sakura's shared signature attack (which I cannot remember the name to. (>__<); ) Also, Cell's stance looks oddly similar to King's, which amuses me to no end.
(Isn't King an SNK character though?
*has no idea*)
The stances and speeches the characters have before their fights, are so in character, and completely awesome! Not to mention, all characters genuinly has their own sets of movements and styles, and when they're similar to other characters, there's actually a reason for it! Like 17 and 18 share a similar maneuver, and naturally Vegeta and Frieza share maneuvers and attacks with their unlockable counterparts.
And sure, I've had a little trouble with the button combination system at first, but that was just because I wasn't farmilar with how the combination directions corelated to the PS2 controller. (Wow, I'm stupid.
) Oh, and I occasionally have trouble with certain button combos, though so far I've figured out two of my three button combo problems.
But this game is just so good! Piccolo especially looks so frickin' badass during his before battle pose, and it's funny as hell to hear Krillin say, "I just keep dying!" Majin Vegeta's screaming, "I'LL DESTROY YOU!!" when he uses Galick Gun is so cool it's scary, while just how Buu walks just fills me with a wicked glee.
My favorite DBZ game to date, other than Super Sonic 2, but that's for a handheld and therefore doesn't count. X3

YES!! Woohoo! I'm not the only one who noticed it! X3 Piccolo Daimaou's voice sounds more like Vegeta as the playable character. Vegeta as the narrator sounds just like Vegeta, though, as does Majin Vegeta. Weird.
But holy crap, Christopher Sabat did a great job of inpersonating Dameon Clarke's Cell voice. I didn't realize he did his voice until my brother read it from the credits, and I still can't tell the difference.
This is much better than when he did Cell in Super Sonic 2, but then again, there wasn't much voice acting to do in such a game.

Your Battle Power is your ranking. If you go to the Options Menu, you can check how high you rank with all other "players." Goku is Rank 1st by default, then Cell, and then Freeza. There are others, but I don't remember.
