Sweet merciful hell, this looks fantastic! The graphics are hit or miss, but the gameplay is totally badass!
Also, I can't help but notice certain similarities between this and Project Age 2011. They're definitely not the same game though. I hope we can see this one hit the PS3 too sometime in the future.

Edit: I just realised that this kind of reminds of the Half Life DBZ Mod - Earth's Special Forces. :)

It really looks like they just copied the idea of ESF, actually.

This game looks awesome. I doubt RB3 will be anything like this, though. I'm willing to bet they're just copying the visual style to sell more copies.

Ignoring the fact they've scrapped the Raging Blast series and the next Spike game isn't using these graphics?

It looks like it'll be just another Raging Blast installment to me, and the style of the character models reminds me of this game.

It really reminds me of another Gundam VS Gundam type of game (like the Higurashi and Fate PSP games).

Really? You may want to look again then, Project Age uses manga-stylised graphics. This game uses 'realistic' graphics

The first ever image of Project Age looked a wee bit like this but now we actually have screenshots we know it doesn't.

I played the game in Tokyo today. The gameplay was kind of messy for a newcomer, but it was quite fun, too. This game is clearly different than any Dragon Ball games ever released. This is something new, at least.

1) The character models look like they were made of clay.

2) I didn't care for this game but after watching some stuff, I want this game.

3) Too bad its Japan only for now.

Yeah, there are accessories they can add to characters.
