Too many plotholes. I don't want to be reminded of it in my dream game. :)

Reposting from another topic:

"The main character is Vegeta, and the game is set during his years of service under Freeza. As Vegeta scours planets of life, he also searches them for anything that can give him an advantage over Freeza.

Featuring hideous brutality (ripping civilians in half, tearing out giants' eyes, snapping necks with Vegeta's tail, blood splatters everywhere, breaking off some poor bastard's arm and eating it to restore health), no wangst whatsoever as Vegeta laughs his way through the genocide of several planets, and beautifully rendered roomy settings to explore and lay waste to as you revel in carnage and bloodlust.

Unlockable Characters/Costumes:
-Miscolored Vegeta
-Badman Vegeta (w/ tail so those combos can still be done)
-Raditz
-Nappa
-Kakarot (Goku in Saiyan armor)

Collect half the MacGuffins and Arlia is unlocked as a bonus area after completing the story mode. Collect all and beat Arlia to unlock the Earth."
I could see that working out as a God of War style game. It would end with some awesome boss battle before the credits roll and, during such, you would get to play a bonus level (Arlia). After the credits, a short sequence of Vegeta arriving on Earth would take place before the screen fades to black.

I would love to see a "Kingdom Hearts" style RPG. I think that kind of genre would be perfect for a DB game

And, just to throw it out there, I want another DBZ: Legends done for PS2. Only this time, if there's going to be long and drawn out special move scenes, give us the ability to skip them.

I'd also like to see the Budokai's series' capsule system make a return. Customising characters and running on-line tournaments with them was always awesome.

An RPG, a remade, expanded version of the Super Famicom's Sūpā Saiya Densetsu (Legend of the Super Saiyan). I love that game to death, man.
Fuck yes. I DEMAND a remake of that game!

Aside from that I'd like something with a new/original storyline featuring a few new characters and, most importantly, a CAC.

I have no faith in any game designer/Toei/even Mr. Toriyama to come up with new characters that aren't blatant recyclings of older ones. That goes double for CAC.

I would like to see Create-A-Character as a great throwaway feature for a Dragonball fighting game. It think it would work best with something similar to Super DBZ because they already had a LOT of customization for a DBZ fighter.

You could pick a race, a hairstyle, a hair color, a clothing style, clothing color, a basic fighting style, and then your skill-tree could consist entirely of inheriting moves from other characters based upon what race and fighting style you chose.

This would be nice for creating characters that aren't available in the actual game itself, too. Like an Ultimate Gohan that wears Goku's clothes and has a fighting style consisting of stuff from Goku, Cell Game Gohan, and Piccolo.

May sound strange and all, regarding a lot of opinions from you guys,
but I like dragon rush and wish it could be used for a more like RPG kinda game.

I like the calm of playing the rush. lol this is totally rpg like.
Implementing a little of status for values of win/lose chances it can be turned into a nice novel.

I want the DBZ Online/WOW style in a Budokai 3 type of game. I would like to get in fight with like ten of my friends and fight Ten powerful villains or friends. Just a huge DBZ war would be fun!

I would like to see them burn in hell for ruining multiplayer completely, being assholes to collect, and being so overly powerful that they mattered more than which character you chose. Oh, and for killing every character's moveset in the Budokai games.
Give us normal fighting games, dammit.

I've not played many DB games, but in retrospect I think the ability to knock your foe from their SSj state back to normal is an interesting prospect.
