I don't know, I for one don't really like to use the Analog Stick like that. Also, shouldn't it be a little bit more difficult to pull off a special move than just tap the analog stick in a certain direction?

No. Do the characters in the anime have to do anything before they started in on a move? It's just a natural occurance.

I all too often find myself using a Super when attempting to use an Ultimate by clicking down on the stick.


I'd rather press two buttons and push a stick down and actually know I'm going to use an ultimate than hope I don't nudge a twitchy stick the wrong way.

[LeprikanGT]

How many character slots are left for characters that were not in RB but have been in other DBZ games?

Also, are either of the RaginBalst 2 videos on PSN new? I know one was from E3 but I'm not sure about the second one, it's taking awhile to d/l for me.

The opening looks phenomenal!

That's the Goku I would love to play in a game.

Entirely agreed. It will be an orgasm to watch it in HD on a big TV. Fuck yeah!

And as for the controls: When BT3 came out and I played it I thought there will never be a game again that might have even slightly amazing controls as this. And when I saw the controls for RB1 first I was very sceptical. It seemed way off for a game that has the same gameplay as BT3. But I was wrong. I like the controls of RB1 very much now. Still I played BT3 yesterday and came to the conclustion that there still better but nonetheless RB1 comes close.

Things like spinning the analog stick when flying away from a smash attack and the Super attacks on the right analog stick are quite annoying but it's ok. If these things were to be remade like in BT3 with L2+Triangle for Super attacks and hitting O when punched away it would be beyond amazing.

Me too.

Give us those graphics IN-GAME and there would be NO comparing it to any other dbz game out there, coughmaybeanyfightinggamecough.

Maybe not though since we wouldn't get the same angles as the intros always show. maybe re-do one of the movies like those graphics or make the cutscenes looks that nice.

Just a random thought; but if there is a 3rd RB game do you think they will add:
1. Giant characters w/more henchmen
2. All of GT
3. Stick to Z w/ Henchmen and add the Jump special movie [w/ possible Giants b/c of that]

EDIT: Adult Gohan. He is pretty nimble, I like the movements in general. They updated the dash clash thing, YAY for not having to spin the sticks.

Depends on what Spike is going to do. After the character selection screen was shown the other day, it has been shown that we have 9 character slots left on the screen, BUT from what we've been told about the roster additions, we only have 8 remaining characters to be announced. So either we are getting an extra character, or they are including a "random" or "custom" character square from the very beginning.

I'm hoping there will be four games in the series. Game 3 can be used for characters from the Jump special and Neko Majin Z (ANIMATED NEKO MAKIN Z FTW!), as well as fill in some of the gaps with returning and new comer fighters: Mecha Freeza, King Cold, Saibaman, Cell Jr. Teen Trunks and Goten, Kid Uub and Pan, etc. Then that would leave game 4 to just go rampant with GT characters, giving us room for all the important characters without having to cut corners...seriously,...no GT Vegeta while including SS4 Vegeta and all of Bebi Vegeta's forms was a major letdown in BT3/Meteor, especially since they included all of GT Goku's forms.

[LeprikanGT]

I always thought it was odd to have no GT Vegeta yet they added that Baby Vegeta '2nd form' that had like half the armor before he went full on 'Baby'.

We still don't have Metal Cooler do we?


So out of the 8 or 9 spots left to go, how many of those characters are characters from RB1? [Trying to figure out if there are anymore 'new' characters aside from the last 2 never before seen people]

Still no confirmation on Mecha Coola or Garlic Jr., but they should be in I suppose, be weird if they were the only movie villains excluded.

Anyway we were told 20 slots for returning fighters:

Nail, Future Gohan (Base, Super Saiyan), Paikuhan, Dabra, Tullece, Janenba (Transformed), Zangya, Bojack (Base, Transformed), Ultimate Gohan, Cooler (Transformed), and Jinzoningen 13 (Base, Merged) are visually confirmed, so that totals 14.

Cooler (Base) and Lord Slug are no brainers, as both of them will be in Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans, so our new total is 16

Meaning we have at least 4 returning fighters from Spike's previous series...meaning Mecha Coola, Garlic Junior (Base, Transformed), and Sauza? This is assuming that the original numbers we were told have not been increased of course.

[LeprikanGT]

Am I the only one who wants Mr. Satan? He has the most interesting and gunny moves in the phone game. Strength doesnt matter in the games, just look at Videl being in the first one. [for God knows Why]

[TheDevilsCorpse]

She's a chick...
Mr. Satan probably won't be in till RB3 since Daisuke Gōri died and they haven't picked a replacement for him as Mark to my knowledge.

The only thing Videl was ever good for was being Satan's daughter [to make Suepr Buu wait the hour] and making Pan. neither would have been possible without the better counter part of both.

I so want him though, that would bring some variety to the game.

[dragonballzgtfighter]

I would love RB3 even more before the next gen consoles are released...

I would like to see them come close to completing Z, then work on GT and DB.

Have fun!

[LeprikanGT]

Eh, nothing new in the video. I want to see moves not punches. That and the other modes of the game.

[Piccolo Daimaoh]

The opening looks phenomenal!

Agreed. So what if it's CG? Does mean it's automatically bad? I see this attitude so much regarding animation.

Oddly enough, this gameplay looks like it may hold some semblance of being...intuitive? o_O

Doesn't look any different to the original Sparking! if you ask me, graphical updates aside.

Have you actually played the original Tenkaichi? Even as a Spike fan, I can admit that it sucked. The gameplay was so clunky and stiff. I can sort of understand comparing it to Tenkaichi 3, but to the original Tenkaichi, I just can't.

[Zephyr]

Looks like that last vid confirms Scouter Vegeta as his own character, likely confirming that you can't have SSJ Vegeta in his old Armor. Son I am disappoint.

[hulkty]

so...is there a link to this opening vid?
