Sorry to bring it up, but you do realize that Ken is an American and uses Hadoken, Shoryuken, Tetsumaki Senpuu Kyaku, etc. right? Following logic, you should want Ken to use translated terms of his attacks.
Hehe, you mean, like in the arcade version of Street Fighter: The Movie?

"HURRICANE!" "DRAGON!"

He was basically raised in Japan with Ryu by Gouken from an early age. This means he himself would have learnt Japanese. Following logic, you shouldn't be such a smartass.

On closer inspection, that picture of Goku (bottom image) looks horrendous. His legs are out of place and his arms are small. Sure it's the angle but those legs just look wrong; they stretch out from the middle of his crotch. 0_o

That Goku pic is ugly I'm surprised no one mentioned it.
On side note though, Do those scans reveal any new info?
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Yeah, what's up with that.
But it's probably just a bad in between shot.

All three of those shots of Goku look terrible. The cell-shaded update is cute and all but these graphics need a serious overhaul.

So, who's been announced so far?
Oh, you think the Grand Tour is your ally, you merely stepped into the Grand Tour. I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn’t see the Super until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding!

It's just been Goku, Vegeta and Freeza so far.

By some miracle, is someone going to E3? I'm pretty sure G4 isn't going to give a flying crap about this game and I doubt there is going to be any online coverage either. But, by the time E3 rolls around I'm sure we'll see some new updates,maybe even a demo? I'd really like to see the updates and changes(though I doubt they are anything new) so, if anyone is going can they document their experience for us?

I think G4 should cover EVERYTHING that appears at E3, not just the fanboy stuff and the press release stuff.

If I were them, I wouldn't bother covering it. As a gamer I think it's safe to say no one cares about the 13th Dagonball game to be released for consoles in the US. Not to mention, E3 is
HUGE ,they can't afford to focus on everything(so they focus on the major press conference and new interesting titles...and popular sequels).

I wish I could look to next year to get the exact number of how many hundred thousand copies of this game sells to make a point about that comment.
Just because it's not game of the year doesn't mean it shouldn't get a mention.

If you want, you can check out Raging Blast's abysmal sales in the "Boy did the recent games bomb" thread for comparison purposes. I think all games deserve some coverage but this is the same game we've seen since Budokai Tenkaichi 1(or at least, for argument's sake, last year with Raging Blast). There is no wow factor, there is nothing innovative or different that makes this game worth covering. Lets be real here video game journalists aren't going to give a rehashed fighting game, based off a 20 year old anime the time of day unless it truly offers something special, which it doesn't...so no one cares.
If anything Gamespot or Gametrailers might give a "oh look another Dragonball game" type video from E3, but that's it. And that in itself is pushing it, considering GS still hasn't bothered reviewing BT3.

What I really want is for them to bring back that feature when you do a super attack the camera zooms out from space and u can see the planet exploding or whatever
And also some scorch marks on the ground would be nice.
I hated launching a huge attack all for it to leave no dent on the ground.....
