This is a very sad day for all of us that were hoping for a good DBZ game from Dimps for the PSP that would play like B3 with in-game transformations. Just today, pics have been released showing that their are no in-game transformations, and the producer of the game is the same guy that did DBZ Sparking. What does this mean? It means that it's NOT a port of B3, and more of a modified Sparking.

The pics are available here: http://www.gamespot.com/psp/action/drag ... pid=924588

Sorry everyone if I just ruined your wishes for the game.

Shit! I'm glad I changed my mind on getting a PSP now...

I'll just spend my birthday money on Neon Genesis Evangelion: Platnium Complete!

w00t!

Sweetness, you'll love it, I sure as hell do.

Too bad about Shin Budokai, Chou DragonBall Z couldn't take any longer to 'port to the US.

In the interview with Ryo Mito (also on GameSpot), he mentions that there will be in-game transformations..

Ryo Mito wrote:Plus, each of the 18 characters found in the game can transform into other forms. For example, in battle, Goku can transform into any of the following forms: Kaio-ken, Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2, and Super Saiyan 3. Each form has different attacks.

From what I'm reading in the interview, and what I see in the screenshots, it seems like there will be in-game transformations, and players will be able to start out in different forms if they wish. In my opinion, that's the best handling we're going to get of the transforming system in a DBZ game. Not to mention the fact that it's still being done by Dimps, and the graphics are distinctly Budokai.. It almost seems like it's going to be Budokai 3, with the best elements of Sparking!! thrown in (Freeza has his discs! YES!). Hopefully, this will truly be the refinement of the Budokai series like they said. I can't wait.

This is something we don't need, but how can it play like Budokai Tenkaichi? It does look like a Budokai 3 game. Dammit, Tenkaichi just wasn't fun!

EDIT: For some reason, I just don't think that journal was written by Ryo.

There is ingame- transformation. Just read this :

http://www.playfrance.com/psp-Dragon-Ba ... tails.html

It's in French, so if you can't read it, i'll sum up the important parts:

- Ingame transformations
- Based on the 12th movie "Fusion" (But other important characters like Cooler, Brolli etc. will join the character roster).
- Counter telleport (like in Budokai 3/CE ) will return.
- You can take a super boost (name: "Sayan Overdrive System" ) for more speed.
- Bonus mode: You can draw cards by using different ellements, given in the game. You can send these cards to an other player if you want to.
- release date is 14 april on PSP (this might be for Europe, not sure abouth that).

In-game transformations are back?

Sweet!

Still $300 for a handheld system - oh well

WOW, that is a lot! In Belgium, you can now get a PSP, and one fixed game (you can't choose it) and one game you can choose (out of 4 selections) for 279 euro.

Well not that I care for that, becuase I just don't like the PSP. I am more of a Nintendo DS boy. but it's nice for people who wants one.

Er.... €279 equals $331, so I think the PSP is more expensive here.

But do they get 2 games with it? Anyway I really don't mind. It can be that it is cheaper there, I just think the PSP is expensive.

Well I've had a PSP since they came out nearly a year ago, so there really isn't any reason for me to not get this game. If I'm the first one I'll be sure to tell you guys what I think of it since it's still listed for a US release date of March 7th.

You already have Greatest Hits Budokai 3, maybe you can give a comparison review between the two games after you get Shin Budokai? I think we'd all be interested in the differences.

And it's £180 for just the PSP in Britain, then again you could save money by forgotting about the double pack and just buy a game off the shelf.

Good idea, maybe I'll do that.

Seriously, I barely got myself a DS; and after I get my Eva Platnium Complete, I'm probably gonna start saving up for a Nintendo Revolution. (PS3's are probably gonna cost more then the 360! SHIT!

)

Back on topic! Based on Movie 12, eh? I guess that would hint at no SSJ4...

Well, after i introduce myself i can finally properly post here

(i just want to follow the proper steps). Well, i was wondering on the net an i founf this web page. It has good pictures from shi budokai www.ps2on.com it is in spanish but the titles expline themselves. And i gotta tell you guys the pictures are pretty sweet. And it seems that there are not gonna be in game transformations

gotenx · Post by **gotenx** » Thu Feb 23, 2006 1:44 am

Work on your grammar just a little bit. Ok?
And sorry everyone else for giving wrong info. I only saw the pictures, but the game is being done by the same guy who did Sparking, so that's the only reason why I was worried.
