Yeah, if those would include Ledgic, the Bonpara brothers, Rild and all the Dragons... But I doubt they will, since nobody seems to dare to include those in a game.
Graphically the sequel remains the same as its predecessor.
Eh? Which game did they test? They look changed to me...

That leg sweep at 0:32 came out of nowhere.
"idk if you guys remember me form last year, but i did the same thing with the original Raging Blast. I posted a topic on here about that game with some vids form E3.I didn't get to play too much today so i only squeezed 2 games in. But theirs few things i want to note:

Playable characters- Goku, SSJ Goku, Krillin, Turles, Janemba, Freeza and Cell (Might be missing a character or 2)

Gameplay changes- It seems all the characters will have BIG differences. I didn't fully understand the new gameplay tweaks. So i'll just upload a video with details tomorrow when i get more familiar with the system.

Dynamic Camera Angles- I this is my favorite improvement. When your pursuing the opponent, melee attacking, doing a super or almost any motion the camera will have some crazy angle for it. Best addition to the series so far!

Graphics- I wasn't a big fan of the new darker shaded graphics at first. But when you see it in person the graphics are good. Still vibrant, but not RB1 level vibrant...

Before playing this today i had most of my attention on Storm 2 and assumed this was just gonna be Raging Blast +20 characters. But after playing this today my hype meter has jumped back up! Tomorrow i'll post some vids on here for you guys!

Oh btw Janemba is the coolest character by far. When he dashes he digitalizes himself and is completely quiet. Its the perfect sneak attack! Very Sick!"

Ok, we have a trailer, two gamepaly videos, and a couple of posters. I think I can justifiably say....meh. Honestly this is just an ugly non-glitchy Raging Blast, which makes it an ugly Tenkaichi 3 with less characters. I might as well save my money and play the older games on the PS2. Like I said in my post before I'll demo it but honestly I'm really not impressed, especially after I saw Ninja Storm 2's graphics. I hate Naruto and I found myself more interested in that than this, because the game looks like I'm playing an episode. This sucks, Bandi is publishing both yet we get the B team...It's not fair.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

Maybe it'll look better to you if you see it in person.

Why does Spike always use the same font for the characters' names? :P

Why are these screenshots stretched out to a resolution far bigger then either console can render? It makes an already horrible looking bunch of screenshots look even worse.

I really like the dynamic camera angles. That was actually one of my main suggestions to the developers. Glad to see they included it. I noticed in one of the vids that the ground was actually damaged when someone was hit into it. But i'm not sure if it remained or disappeared. Did anyone catch that?

I love how Janemba does his little break up into pieces thing finally. That was a big thing in the movie so it's nice to see him finally have it.

Wow, those graphics are pretty fucking amazing.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Here's a pretty good demo recording of Super Saiyan Gokû v. Janemba. I do say, the teleportation work for Janemba is quite nice.
