    this game was origonally intendeded to deliver dragonball z to the next ganeration.
    i have to admit when i got the game it wasn't the best game but usually in DBZ games the first one always sucks and the 2nd and 3rd ones r always the best just look at budokai 3 :3

    the only shamefully this dbz did'nt have many charaters and the story was very short in 5 days of having this game igot 42 of 50 achivements and plan to get the rest very soon. but this isn't the best dbz out. the best is budokai 3 andalways will be.

    I don't care if there is nothing really new to the game, but it bring the series to the next generation, and that is what this game is intended to do.

    Open your eyes. There's NOTHING new about this game, apart from some superficial changes to the combat and next-gen visuals. And even the visuals are mediocre. The game doesn't look like the show! It looks like 3D melted plastic/clay. The game is stripped from Budokai 1 on the PS2. They've even recycled animations from 2002.

    This.......Game......Looks......BAD......ASS!!!!! I want this game so bad, I only have one small issue with it, it only goes up to the Cell Saga's end, meaning -or at least I think it means- that Super Sayain Three and Four Goku will be denied, along with a bunch of other characters, such as Goten, Kid Trunks, Gotunks[sp?] and Gogeta, to name a few, I hope they come out with a second Burst Limit
