Sound

I truley liked the games music, voices, and special sound-fx. It's good, but the noise you get when your flying around really gets annoying after a while so I mostly play with the sound on low and crack up some tunes on my CD player. Don't get me wrong the sound in this game is almost perfect, couldn't be better just gets annoying for people like me who enjoys to relax to some heavy metal tunes and kick some ass DBZstyle!

Gameplay

Amazing, simply amazing. I enjoy playing this game because it puts you in that Dragonball Z mind set that your the strongest guy in the whole world and just beat the crap out of your opponents with some un-normal power. It's also an easy game to understand, button's are easy to pick up and easy to perform. I really enjoy this game alot, but it's got it's downside the meto attacks look great but there isn't enough of them. It really gets boring to watch the same meto attack over and over again, something that would of made this a better game would of been the meto(special) attacks done during gameplay and not after the balence bar battle is won. Still amazing, and in my mind the second best Dragonball Z game ever made.

Summary

I got this game in the mail monday of this week, boy this game really gets me going. I do admit the only thing wrong with it I can see is that some of the enemies are a major pain even on Normal. This game is so awsome for all you Dragon Ball fans out there, if you have a choice get this one first. Of course ppl that don't like Dragon Ball Z Check out the show first and if you fall in love BUY THIS GAME! You will not be dissapointed at all! This game has it all, even the japanese voices are those of the japanese actors, I thought including Nappa was really cool also. Also the Ginyu force was a nice add in as well, I mean the dance they do when they enter made me surprised. Bandai included every detail of the series all most, they left out Raditz but hey they left in most of the good parts.

Sound

The music and sound effects were great, japanese voices were great, the Music was awsome as well the ending song We Gotta Power is one of my fav DBZ songs and to have it in a game was awsome. It would have been nicer if it was the actual song and not intrumental though but no complaints here ^_^

Definatly buy this game, if your not sure rent it if you can find it which is doubtful since it's an import unlike Dragonball GT which was also made in an american version.

Gameplay

The Gameplay is just pure excitment when fighting, I tell you one thing, if the enemy gets you near your end you will start freaking out and usually screw yourself over ^_^ Im sure every other one of these reviews says this but I'll say it anyway, the system used in this game is a tug o war system you battle between powers. The power balance moves in your favor completly and you do a special attack harming your enemy, usually takes 3 for regular enemies if it's somebody like Cell might take 4 depending on who you use. In story mode you get a prefect by following the show exactly.

Sound

The sound kicked ass. The music that played when you performed your meteos matched perfectly, like the eerie tone that plays when SSJ3 Son Goku performs his Chou Kame-Hame-Ha, or Normal Son Goku's performs his Genki Dama, or the crazy music thay plays when Son Goten is getting ready to perform his KamiKaze attack, the sound really adds to the game. The Sound Effects are also good. the sounds of hard punches, and Ki Meteos match the shows exactly.

Gameplay

The replay value alone would make me pick this game over any other game on the market! The possibilities are near endless! For example, I know everyone has at least one "What if" question from the DBZ series, like, what would have happened if Majin Vegeta actually did want to fight Fat Buu with Son Goku's aid? Find out when you play this Game! Another sweet thing is that the moves actually have different intensities! So that a move from SSJ3 son Goku does more than a move from Krillin. the fast paced action makes players really get into the game, and soon, you get to be really good with the controls, and it becomes second nature. that is when you start to really be able to get into the game.
