I never used to be like this. Until, that is, my expectations were broken over and over again. I hope this game doesn't suck, but deep down inside... we're still gonna have that clunky piece of shit known as the 'Sparking' series.
'Sparking' my ass.
...Oh dear, I'd better get ready for a 'Sparking' spanking soon.
*Runs*
I absolutely love the sparking series. Well I've only played neo but I've played it consistently since I got it on it's release date.
I tried the budokai series but I didn't like it very much. After playing sparking it just seems way too confined. And like Sshadow5001 was saying earlier it turned into a teleport fest until someone ran out of ki.
The only thing I really liked about that series was that they got the auras graphics show accurate.

Lots of martial arts action and comedy.

This game seems EXACTLY the same as NEO so far, and if it keeps it up, I'm not even sure if I'll buy it this time around.
I think I'll stick with something a little different, like Goku Densetsu.
How can you say it's exactly the same when they've already shown it's different?

New gameplay mechanics have already been revealed with more probably still under wraps. Gameplay is the focus this time around, as opposed to characters in the last two games. I'm already looking forward to this one more than I was BT2 because BT2 actually looked like it'd be a BT1 clone. If that came out different enough to be 10x more fun than BT this one should be great since they're actually trying hard to improve the mechanics.
I've said it before, but I'll say it again. I SO HOPE that part of this fixing involves allowing EVERYONE to fly because falling out of the sky is stupid, sucks, and breaks the game.
EDIT

50% confirmed, yes. XD The French Atari board has them listed as new but so far it's the only place with that information. Hopefully they'll be in the next update for Meteor's site....

If this Sparking is the same the last Sparking it'll be alright. I enjoyed the last one and I'll more likely enjoy this one as well. A few more characters, level changes, and some variations in the fighting system won't turn it into a great game, but it will be something fun for a few weeks until something else comes along to distract us.

Bardoks team would be a great addition to the character roster and with King Vegeta confirmed they could complete the history of the Saiyajin destruction.
Which is always good fun.
It would be nice to have that history as a story to play through perhaps as the evil side this time.
Dodoria + Random Freeza henchmen VS Bardoks team
Freeza VS King Vegeta + Bardok

Hope arale is really in the game, her rush attack could be a game of tag ending with the opponent flying away after being head butted and of course a mouth beam, and maybe Gatchan will float behind her and be a paralysis attack like freeza, piccolo, buu etc and normal combat will sometimes involve poo on a stick (smiling poo of course).
Sounds like a very fun character to play as
Oh Hell yeah! If Arale actually is in the game, she better fight with poo on a stick!

I'd actually really enjoy playing as the four-star dragon. I really hope that one turns out to be true, because he has a lot of potential to be a unique and interesting fighter...
...Provided they don't screw him up and actually give him cool fire-based attacks.
Hopefully he'll be just like Paikuhan from the last game, and NOT have the same attacks as everyone else...

There is no better combination in the world than Dragonball, Cherry Pepsi, and Cheez-Its. It's a proven fact.

Does Paikuhan in Neo have more than his Thunder Flash (referring to Shin Budokai, I guess), like that hyper tornado thing he used once... and stuff...?
Do we prefer having the Dragonballs inside the areas in story mode (first sparking) or ... not (everything else...)? *Still thinks a dragon radar type option to target the db should exist and just leave you wide open to attacks*.

Yeah. He's got the Hyper Tornado (though it's more like Saiyaman's Justice Kick of the Budokai games, only head first) and... a rush attack combo, I think.

I kinda miss the justice kick, all of saiyamans attacks suck except his ultimate. Saiyaman 2 (Saiyawoman) is so much better.
They also need what if fusions in this game
Tiencha, Gokule, Kriccolo, Adult Gotenks etc
Also 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai Chichi

Hmm. *gets an idea that is probably more appropriate for the characters thread*.
Somehow I get the feeling that since the focus is on storyline and gameplay, the what-if fusions are unlikely... but that doesn't stop me from hoping they're included.

King Kai planet would be an awesome stage to fight on.

Why does everyone feels inclined to subscribe to the forums and post on this topic just to say "*insert random character or stage here* would be a nice addition to the game". Do you guys really think everyone else cares about it? And by the way, there's a entire topic dedicated to that. This one is for news related to the game.
On topic, and begging forgiveness for coming here every now and then just for ranting, it's just so I keep receiving those e-mails telling me that new posts have been made. :3 Anyway, is there any new NEW piece of news? :x *laughs at the sillyness of his last sentence.*

There seems to be an "Official" schedule that's been released for E3. Here it is:
http://www.gamedaily.com/blog/2007/06/2 ... -schedule/
If you look on Friday the 13th, there is a listing for Namco Bandai at 9:00. This means that we might get some new info for the game!

Next quest: Buy the Super: Broly and Super Hero Blurays, also Daima whenever that releases in the states. Also the Super Manga!

Wow, talk about bad luck.... So does that mean that a lot of characters will be revealed at E3?

It doesn't say what will be revealed. I guess we're just going to get some new info about the game. Could be anything.
