So do you think these Piccolo-Daimaô shots are the real deal?

This one looks like it could be the model from Budokai 3.

This one looks like it's the model from Super DBZ.

With all the characters in the game so far it would be a shame if the greatest (at least in my opinion) villain missed out for a second time.

I bet he will be in there. There was an E3 interview with the people making the game and they said that the story mode will be DB through GT, so they would have to include him, however I do realize that the interview was in May and it could've changed by now.

Just out of curiosity do anyother Super DBZ models look like their BT/Sparking! counterparts?

I do hope that the Father and Son Kamehameha screenshot is real!

Edit: forgot to put the link up: http://dbzt2.oldiblog.com/

Too bad the Toma one is a fake. I would've loved him and the other of Bardock's crew in the game.

Also, Oozaru Bardock puts me in an excited fangirl mood, but unfortunately I probably won't get a Wii or a PS2 anytime soon. I guess I'll have to beg a certain someone for a play. <_<

Wow. Someone sure went to a lot of trouble making that fake magazine scan with the extra androids and demon king Piccolo.
They made a big mistake though; they left the mouse cursor on the screenshot with that white android.

That is the most redundantly redundant thing I have ever seen.

More or less a minor detail, but I noticed that Freeza-arc SSJ Goku's special move in that screenshot is called the "Enraged Kamehameha."

Edit: and new screenshots!

I must say the more I find out about this game, the more I'm looking foward to it.

I really thought the first game had the right idea, and I really liked it at first since I personally thought it was the first game since Legends (well you may include Super Sonic Warriors) to actually replicate the fighting that goes on in the series. Unfortunately, it got really rotton quick. I just hope it's not the same with this one because it seems like the developers are putting a hellva a lot into it.

What do you mean?

The Budokai games replicated the series fights.

Jodaku · Post by **Jodaku** » Fri Aug 25, 2006 11:06 pm

Budokai 3 was the only one that really came close, and even then you wern't really doing a whole lot. The stuff that actually made it seem like it was replicating the series were the movie sequences during Dragon Rush and Ultimates/Supers/whatever they're called where you pressed the odd button.

Whereas with Sparking/BT and especially Legends, as you were actually fighting you felt involved in a DBZ battle.

Eh... Ok, I can kind of see where you're coming from.

EDIT:

OOOH! I hope this hasn't been posted yet!

A found a commercial for Sparking NEO!

Unfortunately, "kvon" has posted that already.

Hmm...

Yes, he has indeed.

Well it appears I have made a slight miscalculation.

Anyway.....

Getting back on topic here, I wonder if for the intro to Sparking! NEO, they will go back to the 2D computer animation style, or if they're gonna do that 3D thing again.

That's the instrumental BGM of Cha-La Head-Cha-La. But that doesn't sound like Hironobu Kageyama >.<

Well, if you remember Budokai's intro, it was 3D too. And then the jump to 2D animation.

I really don't think they're gonna do a new 2D animation this time around. I mean, it's possible, but that's my opinion.

Oh yeah, and this reminds me. The music. I don't know if this has been answered, but is the game still using Shunsuke Kikuchi's BGM or is Kenji Yamamoto returning?

Exactly my feelings.

Looks like Golden Oozaru Baby Vegeta had the moveset I thought he'd have (flame breath, super galick gun (both confirmed by whiteguy) and revenge death ball final)

Please look at the last screenshot very carefully. Does the L1/R1 button on Kid Goku's icon indicate transformation? If it is, then there might be Oozaru Goku!
