Budokai 3 Demo

5 Rating: 5, Useful: 2 / 5

I've played the demo of this game at a gaming convention near me and I gotta say, this game is amazing! You'll love it trust me. And this was just a demo with a few characters and not even all their moves. The gfx are more improved especially the auras. I suggest Pre-Ordering this or buying it instantly, it's better than B2 and B1!!

Dragon Ball Z - Budokai 3 follows in the footsteps of games 1 and 2. Part fighting game, part story mode RPG, you get to fully involve yourself in the Dragon Ball Z universe.

There is a huge number of characters available here, both major and minor. There's a large world that you can fly around completely freely, as compared with the previous versions that stuck you on a set board.

The graphics are cel shaded very distinctly "cartoony" main characters against a more gentle painted background / landscape. The animations are smooth and in keeping with the series style.

The music is a bit tinny - I think they could have done better and still been true to the series - but since many fighting games have completely atrocious music, I can't criticize that too much.

Of course we can say that Dragon Ball Z fans will love this game, and play it for years and years without stopping. It's impressive that this game even holds up very well for people who have never seen Dragon Ball Z. You learn about the game world as you go, and have great fun fighting.

Once you unlock all the characters and battlefields, there's still more customization to do and skills to perfect. It really is a game that you can replay for months.

Well Recommended.

I got this game just about a week ago, and it was so awsome! I have a tip: to unlock #16, first beat Krillin's Dragon Universe Mode once. Then do it again, and at one point in the Namek saga there'll be 2 red dots on your map. Go to the one to the right and you'll have a conversation with Captain Ginyu/Frog. Proceed through Story Mode as usual. After the Namek saga, you'll discover that you can now play the Android saga! Go to Earth's southernmost chain of islands until you find the plains. Go there and you'll have a conversation with Trunks and #16. Fly to west city and you'll speak with Bulma. After the speech is over, you get #16! I don't see anything wrong with this game, except this: I CAN'T USE ANY SKILLS! I SET THEM IN MY TRAY BUT I CAN'T USE THEM! WHY!? WHY!? Overall, this is a very good game. I'm glad to be able to do something than fight all the time, flying around in Dragon Universe is fun!

Best of the Budokai series.

I think that Budokai 3 is by far the best game in the budokai series for PS2. The one-player story mode is excellent. After being subjected to B2's horrid board-game-style story mode, B3's was a refreshing improvement. I liked the fact that you're able to freely fly around the overworld map and search for dragonballs, capsules, and fights. The events are different depending on where you are and who you are playing, staying very true to the series. Furthermore, B3 has added a really great leveling-up system which allows you to customize your characters as you fight and gain experience. This keeps the game interesting and replayable.

The gameplay itself is quite enjoyable. The controls are similar to the previous game's, with the addition of some new moves and flexibility. While not complete, the character list is still good, even bringing in some characters from the movies and GT. The graphics are clean and bright, with cel-shaded characters and nice-looking animations. The camera angles are logical and appealing. My only complaints: a longer character list would have been nice, and I also would have liked the option of having the Japanese voices. Overall, B3's a really great fighting game, particularly if you're a fan of DBZ.

This latest version of dragonball z budokai is the best out of all three,but i knew that this game was pretty good because i'd rented it before i bout it.but there are some draw backs about this game there are characters on this game that aren't even on the show or the movies and i've seen probably every episode from dragon ball/dragonball z and dragonball gt but the games are better than the suspence from the shows.overall i'd recamend that if you are a dragonball fan then you should buy this game.

The Best One of the DBZ Budokai Video Game Series

I have several DBZ video games, including the ones for the Japanese SNES, Sega, and Playstation; I also have all three DBZ Budokai video games for the PS2, and by far, DBZ Budokai 3 is the best DBZ game ever made. The excellent 3-D cell-shaded graphics make it seem as if you are taking control of the anime series, and the well-balanced gameplay mechanics have finally been perfected in this last DBZ Budokai video game by Atari.

best game ever
