AVP - Alien Vs Predator I believe? I actually just played the first part of the human campaign and decided it was too awesome to play. xD The aliens scared me shitless. LOL

Oh c'mon. No legitimate game outlet is accepting bribes for scores. Comparing reviews of a massive game like Call of Duty to Dragon Ball is beyond preposterous.
Go to the page for any movie/game/TV show/etc that there has been outcry about and there will be people claiming any positive look at it as being from a plant or someone who has been bribed.

I was called a plant multiple times for claiming on the Prometheus board that it didn't bother me a great deal whether it was R or PG-13.

Hell, I'd bet money that to this day people would claim that the 75%+ positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes on movies such as Die Hard 4 and Indy 4 are comprised entirely of people who were bought off.
Yo! Cal's the name. Nice to meet you!
Lover of all that is pure and fun in the worlds of Dragon Ball, Jim Henson and so forth!

People who brought the game enjoyed it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH5Rr_ouxKo

The only Dragon Ball Z For Kinect haters I know are those who don't own a Kinect.

I'm sure Mike will absolutely love this reskinning of last year's horrid game with controller-less waggle. After all, he does own a Kinect.

There's absolutely no excuse for it not have online play especially since it's a 360 exclusive.

Maybe they do and they play it. People have the rights to have their own opinions.

Quick question: Is this not coming out in Europe at all? I haven't seen this game physically...anywhere.

I was thinking of maybe pulling a "Revenge of King Piccolo" and buying it for whenever I get the console.

Too bad that Angry Joe is likely not going to review this. He pretty much said "I don’t even need to review this shit to tell you its garbage" :lol: .

So what is the character roster of this?

By what i've been seeing, this game does NOT have Janemba, Gogeta SSJ/SSJ4/Omega Shenron and Broly, right?

According to the DB Wikia, it has Ultimate Blast's rooster, minus Broli, Janenba, Yi Xing Long, SS4 Gogeta, and the Created Characters, but plus Super Saiyan Bardock.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Portugal + Games these two don't really go well together, I've been to various retail stores and they barely have a huge catalogue of games available. Normally it's just for PS3 and the prices are absurd when in UK the game's gotten so cheap already.

I once asked an employee at Worten if he knew how to reset a PS3 to work on a CRT TV and he told me "there's no solution". Lulz.. as bad as calling PlayStation Support for assistance.

Anyway, just wondering, where are the QR Cards purchased from?

Highly debatable. We've been getting all the big anime games (Naruto, Dragon Ball, Bleach, One Piece, Fullmetal Alchemist, Hajime no Ippo and Fist of the North Star), across all platforms, including european exclusive limited editions. In fact, even the Ultimate Tenkaichi Collector's Edition is still available in some stores.
Which is why I find it so weird that the Dragon Ball Z for Kinect game is nowhere to be found.

Success! My BF just told me he managed to rent a copy of the game an hour ago. I'll check it when I get home.

I hope at least one game reviewer will review this game. It seem like no one on Blistered Thumbs did any DBZ game reviews yet.

1) Who's going to spend 80€ to 90€ on a box with a toy (DBZ:UT)? It's why it's still available.
2) Which shops are those available at?

One Piece for PS3 looks really tedious not sure I'll bother buying the game at all.

Btw, does AngryJoe act like a jackass? For that there's already AVGN.
