Interestingly enough, if memory serves, Chou/Super Dragon Ball Z has the highest amount of female fighters thus far that we know of.
Battle High 2, starring Kyle Hebert as well as myself, has been released on Xbox 360, OUYA, PC, Linux, Mac, and Xbox One!

And my predictions for the next games:

Yes, I have trouble deciding one character... :P

Tenshinhan, Piccolo and Cell. I always pick them. Hopefully Tenshinhan isn't as watered down in Budokai Tenkaichi 2. UB22 is a classic as well, and of course I picked the three I listed.

"Ultimate Battle 22 is a classic"? Don't listen to him... He's drunk. We all know that Vegeta has the best combos, damn it!

Well, since I actually have now played any number of DbZ games, I can give my $.02...

SuperSonic Warriors: Tie
Kuririn - He's got a lot of variety across all 3 of his levels
Goku - Same reason as Kuririn. I love the "L" = Instant Shunkan-Ido thing.

Budokai 1 - Trunks. Big Trunks fan period. Too bad he got shafted in SSW, though.

Buu's Fury - Gogeta. 'Nuff said.

...And that's all I have to say bout that.

I've always loved playing with Tenshinhan. Him being a playable character was one of the main reasons which made me buy Ultimate Battle 22 back in 1996 (I didn't have a Saturn at the time so I took the Playstation game).

Nowadays, I enjoy playing with both Tenshinhan and Yamcha. I also loved Yamhan, I hope they'll bring him back someday. Tenshinhan wasn't a really good character in Sparking! though.

I don't really like how they're being portrayed as "comedy" characters in Shin Budokai. Tenshinhan never was a funny character nor a coward.

Apart from those two, I also enjoy playing with:
Goten (he was great to beat "Kid" Buu with in Budokai 2);
Muten Roshi (UB 22, Shin Butôden, Sparking!);
Kid Goku (UB 22, Shin Butôden, Budokai 3);
SSJ 3 Goku;
Mirai Gohan (Sagas... They should put him in Sparking Neo);
Recoom (Budokai 2 & 3).
The résistance dies but never gives up.

Yeah I dont like how Tenshinhan and Yamucha are always made so weak in fighting games. I mean in Budokai 3, Mr. Satan has more moves then the both of them. I mean, what the hell? Muten Roshi could beat Mr. Satan by pimp slapping him!

UB22 is a classic! Well, compared to most of the other games.

...Don't tell me you like Final Bout... :?

Yeah, I hate how everytime I win with Tenshinhan in BT, he says "Whew. That could have gone either way." I mean what the hell? Tenshinhan was like the original badass in Dragon Ball, he should be talking mad crap to everyone.

Thats the problem I have with Dragon Ball Z is that Yamucha and Tenshinhan aren't in it much at all. Also, Piccolo isn't that important in DBZ after fusing with Kami.

For all the games I played so far my favorite would have to be the most basic and beginner character of all Goku. :)

I have not played many dbz games but...

Budokai: Cell, I dont own this game but I played it at a friends house and won the world tornament like 8 times in a row fighting as cell.

Budokai 2: Gohan, this was like the introduction to Ultimate Gohan and I was like OMG Gohan is so awsome.

Budokai 3: Goku with gogeta capsule because... well Gogeta is awsome

Budokai Tenkaichi: Trunks (w/sword) I just like Trunks, I dont know why, he's just plain cool.
Cuz you're an ocean, you're an ocean, settle down settle down what's the commotion?

Hey

Post by chibi_goten » Fri Jun 23, 2006 5:24 am

Wow that was pretty impressive Son_GokouSSJ4.

I have played most Dragonball related games but I'm not going into depth like that!

Most of the characters have the same styles in the game anyways.

So I will just cover the Budokai series on the Playstation 2.

Budokai - Mirai Trunks, when he transforms with long hair it looked cool!

Budokai 2 - Kid Buu, he was so fast and powerfull to his '' I'm going to eat you up'' counter part.

Budokai 3 - Goten, so quick fast with a simple transformation. Liked his blue clothes.

Tenkaichi/Sparking - Goku, normal form. Liked the way you could activate King Kai fist.

I would go into the other games, but I don't feel like doing it sorry!

I would have to say pan, from DBGT: Final Bout. The game may have sucked, but it had PAN!!!!

Budokai: Hercule/Mr. Satan
Budokai 2: Hercule/Mr. Satan
Budokai 3: Omega Shenron, SSJ4 Gogeta
Tenkaichi/Sparking: Super Trunks Super Saiyan(No, really! Thats what it's called!) and Great Ape(Not as good with him, but he's big.)
Super: Chi-Chi(duh!)
Tenkaichi 2/Sparking NEO!: Hildegarn Baby!!!! Unless Tapion has a move where he uses his flute/piccolo(heh)/clarinet/instument, My hildegarn decision stands as it is! Boo-yah!
