Re: "DBZ: Battle of Z" (360/PS3/Vita) On-Going Discussion Th
The only bad news about this game so far for me is the no off-line multi-player, and the possible omission of characters like Chaozu & Zarbon. Other than that, the game looks fine to me. I won't judge its gameplay until I try it myself.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Even assuming there is depth to this gameplay, you wont get to hit things very often. This looks like a juggling game, you just hit the opponent, then other guy hits him and so on. That doesn't look fun in the slightest. We then consider the fact that this game looks incredibly shallow and you have yourself some piss poor gameplay. You can wait to try it if you want, just know you'll more than likely be disappointed.

I don't really care what it looks like or how deep it is, all I care is how it feels like, and you can't tell how it feels like until you play it. I even had some fun with Ultimate Blast.

As if Spike's games ever had deep gameplay.
Re: "DBZ: Battle of Z" (360/PS3/Vita) On-Going Discussion Th
I agree with Hulkty. I think it's pretty much over for this game in my honest opinion. I also believe that J-stars blows this game out of the ocean and it's not even a dragon ball only game.

Yeah, I'm just making a point that even the most popular DBZ games have simple gameplay.

I guess the whole deep/shallow gameplay thing will be 100% clear when we see actual players trying the game on the Tokyo Game Show.

Imagine a Ubisoft DB game with a Assassin Creed engine with original story with NONE of the original characters(They appear and will help you out at times and you can play with them offline multiplayer) with an online 24/7(PVE is optional) like Dc Universe and you can be a villain or hero.

I want dimps to come back
. Just give us Budokai 3 with Burst Limit's graphics, remove the GT characters and add BoG characters, remove the Dragon Rushes or make them vary between characters, and give us a GOOD story.

Pan, Majuub, Super Saiyan 4s, Super Sigma, Rilldo, Baby, Super 17, the Shadow Dragons vs. Super Saiyan God and Bills?! I prefer having 20 characters exclusive to GT rather than the 2 or 3 characters introduced in Battle of Gods.TheMightyOzaru wrote:remove the GT characters and add BoG characters

People need to stop nit picking the game and wait for it to come out. The game is not even out until next year and there's time for the game for improvement. The game looks fun and we are getting something different then what we normally get. Who cares if you can't fight one vs. one, is that worth bitching about?

Re: "DBZ: Battle of Z" (360/PS3/Vita) On-Going Discussion Th
To be fair. Not everyone wants to fight more than 1 person all the time you know. Some people just want a 1 on 1 battle. Even though they have other games for that. So it's kinda 50 50 on bitching about it.Who cares if you can't fight one vs. one, is that worth bitching about?
Not this again............People need to stop nit picking the game and wait for it to come out. The game is not even out until next year and there's time for the game for improvement.

One of the things that pissed me off the most was the game directer's "Oh, you like GT?" comment.. WTF was that.. not cool at all man. So are they saying that Dimps and Spike were desperate so they added GT characters into their games when there were clearly more Z characters that could've been included?
They definitely lost points with with that one.

1. They might hate GT just as much as most fans"Oh, you like GT?" comment.. WTF was that.. not cool at all man. So are they saying that Dimps and Spike were desperate so they added GT characters into their games when there were clearly more Z characters that could've been included?
2. He thought GT was hated
3. What you said(I agree with this one)
4. He's an ass
I'm choosing number 3
