She's always going to be Saiyaman II to me.

She is Videl's transformation I wonder if it will be the same for Gohan too?

Twin Attack?

Is this some kind of Team Combo or is it in-game tag team combat?

If it is tag-team, I hope we can do the same for Trunks and Goten as well; those two are joined at the hip if ANYONE are.

Hey, did anyone notice that the background music in this clip for the American version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJfJ_tivxwE) has the music from a level in DBZ: Super Butoden 2 for Super Famicom?

Why are these screenshots on a PC monitor?

It is part of her "ultimate attack" (L2 + Down+ Triangle).

I never really had noticed that. Probably that's what they had instead of a TV. Though it may have had to do with the build of the game, I don't know. I mean, it had like a debug menu whenever they started it up after the game froze every so often, and it seems that you could access this menu by pressing select. Also, only one part of versus mode was available, and only about three stages, FYI.

Videl's already had a similar attack in the last game.

Hmm, I can't remember that technique, probably because I never play as her. Anyhow, I would really like playing as King Cold in Sparking! Neo ( they should put him in, or else.... :twisted: ).

I totally agree with you. So what if Kewi died shortly after fighting Vegeta? He's Freeza's henchman, for cripes sake! And we finally get to play Yajirobe slicing Vegeta's tail! Zangya thrashing Kuririn! Tenkaichi 2 is a major DBZ gaming event, and it kicks off in October! I can't wait to play as the movie henchmen (I have a thing for 2nd rate villains and heroes; which is why Kuririn is my fave I guess).

Notice the Bojack vs Piccolo pic in the bottom? Piccolo is wearing cape and turban. I guess that means "alternate costumes".

Omega 57: It would really be a waste to put Yajirobe and not Cold. I'm with you. -_^
"Destiny"... people claim by force what they desire, wreak havoc upon others in order to acquire it... and they call it "destiny".

I read on GameFAQ that there will be alternative costumes this time around. Guess that does prove it.

As stated before, I wasn't overly impressed with BT/Sparking 1, but so far the sequal is shaping up quite well, so hopefully it will be far better. However with so many characters, I hope there is more variety between them move wise. I hope they make up some moves for some of the lesser used characters, like Atari did with Bardock in DBZB3. The fact Tullece or whatever he's called has an Oozaru form suggests they might be doing so.

No posts in this topic for ten days, then I post and suddenly there's an explosion of new info? Did I summon it or something?

Question: Does anybody know what the symbols on Yi Xing Long's lifebar mean in the first video? I'm going to be very hyped if the symbols indicate all of the dragons' abilities.

:shock: *bows to the ground* THANK YOU, LORD! PAN!

Finally, Pan gets in a current-gen Dragon Ball game, ooh, and Yi Xing Long too? Sweetness! I hope Uub gets a return as well. :P
I really, really need to get back into the habit of posting.

I also hope they have 17 year old Goten and 18 year old Trunks, from the very end of DBZ...give them some tag-team type attacks, maybe create a brand new "teenage Gotenks."

Uub (and Uub fused with Buu) was already shown. Did you miss it?
