This game I think was kind of a let down. The graphics and storyline are cool, and there are WAY more characters than the previous Budokai games. My main issues with the game are how terrible the camera can be. I had a few times where I got trapped in a corner or something and I couldn't see myself at all. Also, if you move past a tree or something, it blocks your view of your character, which can be very annoying if you are in a difficult fight. Also, there wasn't much of a storyline, it was really just a bunch of fight sequences. One thing I really didn't like was the inability to upgrade your moves and have multiple super moves. The character graphis are the best they have ever been, but the supermoves, which are supposed to be devastating and awsomely explosive are actually kind of puny in animation. The most they do is turn the screen white which can be very annoying if you are fighting a particularly fast character because by the time the screen comes back to normal sometimes they are already back up and already attacking you. I didn't like the new upgrading system which is called Evolution Z because I upgraded my guy to where he was maxed out in level in some of his abilities, but it made no noticeable difference whatsoever. Overall though it is surprisingly addictive, but can be very frustrating, because there are lots of fights where you are supposed to do nothing more than survive for a certain amount of time and that can sometimes be near impossible and to me is stupid because it isn't a real fight. Overall it was fun, but I liked the animation of the super moves in the previous Budokai games much better and also the upgrading of the special moves.
Awesome game, but....

The camera issues got on my nerves. Also, the varity of attacks was limited...Storys were repetitive too... But on the positve side, Incredible Graphics, Over 50 charactors including burtur, SS4 Gogeta, and others. And best of all, YOU CAN STAY IN FUSIONS FOREVER! At the end of a battle, the person who lost is all beaten and bruised. The controls are a bit confuesing at first, but you start too get it veeery quickly. Long game too! We STILL didnt have all the charactors after 4 days of playing. JANEMBA IS AWESOME! TRY AND WIN HIM!
really cool game but

to be honest i dont have the game yet but ive played it.everyone is saying "o my god" no transformations but i think its good that they have no transformations cuz then everyone would be even more confused with the controls.Also everyone is complaining about how hard the game is.....but isnt a game supposed to be hard and if it is so hard theres a difficulty switch.All u ppl whp said it takes 10-20 tryes to kill raditz and u say ur a dbz master then ur not so just keep on traing and soon u will become better and then u will become a dbz champ well at least untill the next dbz game is out well c ya
by the way overall:a nice 4.3/5

I Personally Think That This Game Is A Fun Game FOr Kids Of All Ages. It Does Havs Some Flaws Tough:
-You Cannot TransForm
-The Controls Are Hard To Master
Besides This I Love The Game.
The Graphics Are Awe Inspiring. And There Are Many Things To Do Which Means Months Of GamePlay. Not Like A Game That Ends Quickly.
Best DBZ

Ok this game is awesome it rocks ,but its very very hard its different ALOOOOOOOOOOOT different .It has different controls and modes NO transformations NO skill shop by that being said the tournament is different.Anyways if u liked the other budakais youll lke this one but youll need to learn everything all over again cuz THIS IS 360 degrees yeah thats cool you can destroy crap and fight all over (exept in tournament thats y its not in "dueling)
PROS: ☼ 360 degerees , land, SEA, air
☼ new characters , over 50 and alot of "modes

☼ best graphics of the century
☼ you get battle damaged and scvarredd if u lose health
CONS:☼ this is meduim , cuz i like learning new stuff and i dont
☼ WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to hard , too much health different nonreadable stats very hard
☼ if u cant beat oozau your screwed if u cant lear it your screwed , if u run away your screwed .
☼ no e-z kamehame has or other things took alot of stuff out
☼ uh they made it a little like budokai 1
☼ too complicated , i mean you cant get stuff that e-z
☼ uh well the story isnt really a story its just scene battles
☼ YOU CANT PUT YOUR CHARACTER ANY ATTACKS (suchj as kamehame ha spirit bomb nor any transformatins ) IT JUST BRING ITS THATS PROBOBLY WHAT SCREWED THIS CRAP UP!!!!
☼ no skillls read above ^
☼ um character selection is kind of bad and you cant even put them other out fits .
so overall its alright i got it cuz of new characters its awesome but it has new stuff and its too hard
This was one of the best DBZ games.

I agree with most people that this game isn't Budokai. But it has alot of the cool characters like Broly, Cooler and Janemba. At first this game was pretty hard for me because I was use to the other DBZ games. I favroite match-up is Broly vs. SSJ Gogeta. I wish they made a DBZ movie where those two fought. Anyway, I enjoyed this game.
Good Game

In this game, you can fly when every you want to. The game is complicated at first, so don't get frustrated if you cannot do it a first. The game play is alright, but it could use a few more moves. You can barely do 7 favorite moves. Favorite moves are moves that only this character(s) can do. You can also play as charecters you never thought you can play as. Some are Super 17, Baby, Pure evil buu,pam, all of the Ginuy force, super sayian super trunks and super saiyn super vegeta! The only way to do this though is you have to fuse Z items. Fusing Z items is very complicated. I used codes because I cound't figure out any of them.
Best DBZ game yet to date!

This game is extremely awesome. You get all the characters from DB through DBGT. You do all the sagas in the whole history of DBZ. Personally, I really like SS4 Gogeta the best, and Mecha Cooler. And I like...ooooh! I like'em all! Overall, this game r-r-rocks!!! You gotta get your hands on it if your a true-blue DBZ fan. Get it now! I'm the #1 fan of DBZ, and if I liked, no take that back, LOVED this game..you will, too!
