game is great.
I have no idea of how Virtual On plays so does this game play like ZOE:2nd Runner’s versus mode?
EDIT: Do you think this could be a tournament worthy game? Also, does Super 17 have some sort of weakness to balance out his energy absorption or is he just top tier? Super 17 has that unique advantage so do other characters have unique traits(Android 16/17/18=limited but infinite energy, Freezer/Cooler=environmental immunity, Piccolo/Cell/Metal Cooler=slow health regain, Saiyans/Cell=slow energy regain)?
I just got done playing for about an hour with a friend. It is definitely the best budokai game, and is a ton of fun. Whether or not it’s extremely deep the jury is still out.
However, I will get this game tomorrow, and probably play it for quite a while because, I mean, it’s just an excellent game (whether or not it’s an excellent fighter). It looks fantastic, and I love blowing up the environment.
The game is fun but I’m still getting used to the controlls. Maybe that’s why Nappa was slapping Goku (me) around like some chick that spent to much money on something she didn’t need. But after like 8 tries or so, I got him with the Kaio Ken.
And has anyone beaten Vegeta in his Ape Form? Im-Freaking-possible, I tell you.
So who is the broken fighter(s) in the game? I’m still starting out so I haven’t gotten too far.
i beat the game already… i found out how to get the dragonballs… the game would of bin amazing if it had online play…meh its still amazing either way
i got the game on sunday, its cool, arena seems a bit small tho, but i like the difficulty of it, yeah vegeta would be hard for people but after beating oozaru gohan u pretty much know how to handle it
i havent found anything that good in it yet, i bought king of fighters 2000/2001 on saturday and iv been having fun finding out the mechanics of the game with my mates, its better than i thought
on-topic LOL! nah this game is good and i kno it will get much much better once more things get unlocked, its a very good start anyway, hopefully theyll use their brain and make the next one online
…for 360 :tup: LOL
This is the best dbz game IMO. Its taking me and my friend a while to beat everything. We jacked up the difficulty on everthing and the computer is annoying as shit.
You are correct sir.
cough
Do the US/Eur. versions have the original japanese voices? I saw the Japanese intro while I was in HK and that seemed so cool! I hope it stays for the western versions.
Yes the japanese voices are there. I wish they had the japanese music too.
Damn this game looks awesome. I like the split screen and how each characters can fly around all crazy. This might be a stupid question but what is the full name of this game?
Is it just me, or do the dub voices randomly pop up in the japanese track?
Other than that, awesome game. Love Ultimate Battle and Tutorial modes. Gives it a VF flavor.
Dragonball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi but it would rather be called Dragonball Z: A Tale of Golden Pinecones: http://supervegeta2.skyblog.com/pics/90804239_small.jpg
got the game yesterday this game is so hard!! well atleast for me it is. Since i played budokai 1, 2 and 3 in my head Guard button is X … apparently not for this game i try to block next thing i know im heading towards a fireball or to a HUGE ape. Love the graphic and the new system is good IMO, one thing i dont like is during story mode if u die they dont have the “retry” mode u gotta get out and pic missiong again…
Monkey Vegeta is brooooooken!
I like how there is a character bio for every form of every fighter. And it isn’t just the exact words you can read on a website. They even throw in tidbits I didn’t even know about some characters. Example: Vegito’s Fighter bio says that he immidiately turned into Super Vegito in the manga but in the anime, he went into battle in his base form. I never knew that. But I’ll read about it since there are only 4 more books to go in the DBZ manga.
Anyway, I’m more used to the controls now and I’ve unlocked a ton of fighters. I can’t believe they make you face Kid Buu in Goku’s base form!!! Gotta beat that freak with the Spirit Bomb!!! Man, It took some tries before I did that.
Anyone beat Ape Vegeta? If I was able to beat Bojack and fend off Kid Buu 3 times, I guess anything is possible.
Is Sprawlers still around? He was the resident Budokai 3 guy so I imagine he picked this game up.
And can we get a tier list going?
I believe Trag already made a tier list, but if he didn’t, ask him anyway, as he seems to be the best source of Tenkaichi info right now.
to beat monkey vegeta. immediately do a kameha and then fly straight backwards. monkey vegeta will fly after you but then stop to punch. so dont be afraid to charge up. you dont need alot of ki bar for the kameha, so do it immediately and knock him down. then charge again and repeat. this usually works, but sometimes hes just to quick to get to you before you can charge. so now you dragon dash away and keep running until you leave his vision or he starts charging, and then you charge up real quick and blast him with a kameha. dont try and fill up your whole ki bar, you dont need to and dont stay close to him, because hes way to vicious. i must admit, i didnt come back to him until after i beat the buu saga:confused:
tier list? hmmmm
the odd part is. ive watched the computer play, because its amusing, and videl got super 17 down to a third of his life. she of course still loss, but you can z evolutionize the characters to make them somewhat even with your opponent. you and your friend can play with that, but the game doesnt feel extremely broken in alot of areas, suprisingly. broly is a bitch though, but he lacks speed. so you can constantly begin to tag him like your gonna bust him with a combo, and then teleport behind him when he begins to try to pound through your punches, hit him with a stun, and then throw his ass through a hill, then hit him with five ki blast and a quick finishing move and your chippin life baby. unless he responds to quick, dragon dashes through your ki blast and then dodges your finishing move, while dragon dashing again and smacking you acroos the terrain.:xeye:
this game is the best thing ive played in a while. you cant beat a full 3d game, with like 60 dragon ball z characters to choose from, a tough a.i, and the ability to customize to help break the broken characters and really have some fun.
ive played and own alot of fighting games, and by far, this is going to definetely be a classic.
plus its simple to understand. no complicated combos, no pressing four buttons at a time and then link to this to that to this shit, no x2dp motion or 360 motions to pull of super moves, but yet, it still seems to appear to have alot of depth, and its beyond super fun. trust me, you wont get away with just mashing in this game. there are so many ways to evade, so much environment to hide in. please, everyone get this and lets begin disecting this baby.
i brought it into work sunday and me and this kid played, who never played any budokai ever, and he caught on quick and he himself realize instantly how great this game is. hell. i never played any budokai either, but im beyond impressed.
this is going to be the ultimate tournament fighter, watch.
Yeah, I actually beat the whole Majin Buu saga and then went back to the Saiyan saga. Still haven’t beaten Ape Vegeta but if anyone’s having trouble with Kid Buu, here’s what worked well for me. Bombard the little snot with ki blasts until he falls down, dash over to him and wait for him to get up and then whale on him with some punch/kick combos and make sure you knock him away again. Then shoot more ki blasts at him. Rinse and repeat until you beat the clock. With Hercule all I did was block and press dowards on the D-Pad.
Oh and I just found the awesomeness that is using custom fighters. Majin Vegeta was already a beast when he was used with no customization. Some Defenst + 4, Speed +5, Attack +5, and some Ki +5 and he turned into one of the badest mothers among all the fighters. Seriously, when I use him some fights don’t even last 30 seconds. I can spend a long time just screwing around with stats to make my fighters more powerful. And since customization only uses 1 slot per Potara now, it totally blows away the past customization system in the Budokai games.
Try pitting Krillin against 18 to in COM vs. COM to see what they say.
