So, uh, holy shit! BURST LIMIT!

I can't wait. Something tells me this is a Spike-developed game. (Not a bad thing, necessarily)

Nope, Dimps develops (Look at Freeza and Goku's portraits from Budokai 1)

Thank god its coming out multiplatform. I was afraid 360 would be left out of the new games due to its lack of popularity in Japan. Can't wait to see my favorite characters in sweet HD next-gen goodness.

I am definitely picking this one up for 360, though now I'm thinking of dropping any thoughts of buying BT2/3. This game will inevitably have sequels, so I'm even tempted enough to wait till 2009 to see if they produce a follow-up.

Or a new company.

o_o why do people care so much about the graphics when we already have about a million fighting games already?
*sigh* I give up. *goes off to play super butoten 3*

Graphics are just a nice little bonus for games. I'm not getting this if the gameplay sucks, but even if it does, it's nice to see the characters like this.

Woah man, take care of your spelling and grammar.

I'm predicting this is going to be like a Tenkaichi 3 expansion pack if you catch my drift. That "drama" feature and (I''m optimistically certain) a create-a-character option will be the highlights of the game.

Besides the graphical overhaul of course.

YAY! They are finally putting out a DBZ game for Xbox 360!

_Jrinu_ · Post by **_Jrinu_** » Fri Dec 14, 2007 2:51 pm

DBZ game for 360? I'm excited for that. Seeing as how over the past three months the xbox is all I've really played...

I just hope that it's somewhat different than the sparking series, for some reason it's difficult to get excited about the same game being released 4 times over...

What I meant is that the US spellings sometimes find their way in the Japanese versions. Whoever has to come up with the alphabet spellings probably just looks them up on English sites or something, and...

That being said, one can hope it's actually a screenshot from the Western build of the game... I guess it's possible.

I seem to remember the same thing happened in one of the GameBoy Advance games. And the official sites for the Sparking! series used quite a few US spellings as well.

Either 1) this is a fake

Naaah...

And I kinda wish they'd change the title in Japan...
When I saw "Dragon Ball BL", the first thing that came to my mind was "Boy's Love?" and I started looking for Vegeta on the screenshots...
(for the record, yes, I'm ashamed... but I just recently read the last volumes of Genshiken for the second or third time, so I blame Ogiue...)

Herms wrote:'Sparking!' was pretty English too, and that got changed...to mangled Japanese.

I thus predict "Dragon Ball Z Budokai Yaoi".

It looks like the same thing, visual-wise, from what I can see except the aura which seems a bit more flashy. They need to make the characters more round, and less blocky. It's next-gen!

NECPS · Post by **NECPS** » Fri Dec 14, 2007 6:57 pm

Gosh the character models are out fine. My only wish is that they start
from the top! 2 hundred characters with 4 hundred variation for them ^^
Then include rpg status for level up characters,
equipment with status changes, a really usefull and faithful storymode with
a biiiig overworld, stores, houses to rest and meet non playable but fully
3D modeled characters. Crap, bandai´s with namco now, I know you can
do it better than tekken 6!

I second the notion. "Burst Limit" just sounds like...I don't know what exactly, but not a title.

I thus predict "Dragon Ball Z Budokai Yaoi".

"DRAGON BALL Z! BOOTY-KAI YOW-AI!"

If that happened, I would buy ten copies.

And I don't even HAVE a PS3 or an X-box.

Yeah, I just spotted the Kanji...Why can't they just keep THAT as their Japanese title? "Burst Limit" somehow sounds too Engrish, especially now that we "Burst Limit" came from "Genkai Toppa". A more English-sounding title could be....I gotta admit, this is very hard to do without sounding like a typical FUNimation DBZ movie title. Dragon Ball Z: Limit Break!....nevermind. Atari would probably do worse. "Budokai Taiketsu", or "Budokai Yaoi".

I was just guessing, actually... I hadn't noticed that blurb. ^^;
