Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
Woah, i thought this game gets released in November, and it's actually tomorrow for Europe.
First DBZ game we're getting this year XD
Well, what I'm wondering about is the story mode. How many Boss Battles this will even have? The only one i EVER saw is the Oozaru Vegeta.one.

Not all reviews have to be subjective. This reply of yours was rather unexpected.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
There's no such thing as an "unbiased" or "objective" review. Every person brings their own background and preconceptions, knowingly or unknowingly, to every statement they make, particularly in reviews. If someone is claiming to write an "unbiased" or "objective" review in its full entirety, they're either deluding themselves or have no idea what they're talking about.
The reviews here on Kanzenshuu are from someone who is a long-time DBZ fan and long-time video game player. That's the background they're coming from. Does that jive with you? Is that the type of background you're looking to compare or contrast with? We have you covered.
Are you looking for someone who knows nothing about the series (or maybe just a surface level familiarity with the series) but perhaps has experience with other types of video games? The gazillion other outlets that will write two paragraphs about the game next week will have you covered.
The beautiful thing about reviews is that lots of people do them, which gives you a great opportunity to compare them all, think about what you're looking for in the game/product, and make an educated decision about what you want to do.
Alternatively, you can find someone who parrots your own opinions back at you and pejoratively toss out "biased" at ones that disagree with you.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
I'm hoping that Angry Joe will review this game. His reviews on Kinect games are always fun to watch. It was fun seeing him get pissed off at Star Wars Kinect and Sonic Free Riders then he is going to have a field day with this game

I'm wanting to see an IGN review of this, but hope they do a fine review. Sometimes IGN does some pretty god awful reviews.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
Sometimes I think you like setting yourself up for disappointment. Granted they are like the last major gaming company to actually give a damn about Dragonball games but even they are starting to stop giving a crap. Ironically your best source for review with these games would be from VegettoEX; but you casually tossed that aside for IGN...of all places.dbboxkaifan wrote:I'm wanting to see an IGN review of this, but hope they do a fine review.

...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?

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
I'm kinda torn. I would want it to be okay and playable since I think I'll eventually try it out......but with the prospect on an Angry Joe review....
Also kinda wondering if the difference between Bardock and Super Saiyan Bardock in this game is just the hair...

After proving you don't like reviews, by saying you're not a fan of "biased reviews"......you look forward to an IGN review of an anime game? Seriously?

IGN has done a few good reviews in the past but the majority are bad.. really bad.Rukura wrote:After proving you don't like reviews, by saying you're not a fan of "biased reviews"......you look forward to an IGN review of an anime game? Seriously? For real?
IGN YouTube watchers are right "You can't spell IGNorant without IGN". I hated IGN's Kinect Sports because the game's actually pretty good and the numbskull didn't understand how Football works. -.-"
Kinect isn't a broken piece of hardware, it all comes down to how well the game/software for it is developed.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
IGN give good reviews for RE6 and AVP '010, I agree for them for once. I still think IGN and Gamestop won't give this game anything higher then 5/10.

If this was Call of Duty-style (FPS) I'd bet they would give it a 9/10 or 10/10.Hellspawn28 wrote:IGN give good reviews for RE6 and AVP '010, I agree for them for once. I still think IGN and Gamestop won't give this game anything higher than 5/10.
5.0/10 or 6.0/10 for Dragon Ball Z For Kinect even though I haven't yet played it I won't give it 7+.

(This is the) worst DBZ game ever made seeing as it is an exact port of the previous worst ("Ultimate Tenkaichi") but with new controls and UI.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
Are you really that surprise? You can always return the game for something else instead. I hear Tekken Tag Team 2 is good if you want a new fighting game.TheRealGokuSS4 wrote:(This is the) worst DBZ game ever made seeing as it is an exact port of the previous worst ("Ultimate Tenkaichi") but with new controls and UI.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
I agree with the above statement. But if you want a real review, go to gamespot. Most of the time they're brutal with ratings, but they're on point when it comes to the good and bad in a game.
Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
So... anyone here got it already? I wanted to ask if it's possible to change the Audio to Japanese (or hopefully Spanish for me). xD

What's the opening like? CGI? Surprise 2-D? Or does it not have an opening at all and goes right to the start screen?

Re: "Dragon Ball Z For Kinect" Official On-Going Thread
It won't surprise me if Gamespot does not review this game. They didn't bother reviewing the third Sparking game.
