Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3

Why doesn’t anyone play this game. It’s amazing ;(

I play it from time to time, I don’t take it seriously though for obvious reasons.

I play it.

And take it seriously.

I don’t play it, and I don’t take it seriously.

I like it and have it.

Haven’t played it in years though.

Haven’t played it in a few yrs myself. Had tons of fun with it, tho.

Why play that when you can play SDBZ

I have it and still play it every so often with Warna Brother. Need more people around in my area to play. I don’t go to any tournaments or anything but I do approach it in a serious manner specifically because you if you don’t and you go up against someone who actually knows the ins and outs of the game you’ll get rocked HARD.

I played it but didnt take it seriously

needs more budokai 3…(no tenkaichi)

Budokai 3 is also a good game, I’m just not that great at it. I’ve played DBZBT3 to a crazy extent. I know all the mechanics. I’ve never played on anything but very hard except to grind out the Dragonballs to get the levels. I used to set the computer (who is complete garbage ;( ) to 5 pretty tough characters and only use one guy to beat them. I don’t think I’ve ever lost to one of my friends. I wish there was tournaments for this game. My brain is sad forever ;(

I stoped playing this long ago, it was pretty good when it came out though…

not a fan of behind the back fighters

if you like budokai 3, try infinite world, just for the suped up AI that is no joke.
very hard in bud3 is like normal difficulty in infinite world.

dude, you read my mind 0_0
the super cancel in that game was everything

me, i hate tenk3 for one reason…
ya can’t fully customize the button configuration in T3, and i got so used to my personal button configuration/layout for tenk1+2, that not being able to layout the Guard to the L1 button, really threw my game totally off in T3.

for me, tenkaichi 2 was d best.

my shit was vegeta in that game, you can hook him up with all the ki cunsumption diminishing capsules you can fit into his slots…
and he becomes a ki attack beast.
no joke, like 50-80 hit combo counts with him once you hook his ass up with ki usage diminishers.
once you get someone down on the ground, they aren’t getting back up again.ever. they get pinned down. as long as you(vegeta) is at a close enough distance and in the air.

Edit:my vegeta slots look like this
the turtle stone
ki control
halo
title top fighter
title top fighter
the sacred water
the sacred water

my other vegeta character looks like this
potential power
potential power
rage
equip slots+3
halo
rage
master’s essence

mix energy wave volleys with reg ki blasts, rinse, and repeat.

I dont understand what the competitive rules are supposed to be for this game, because custom characters are fuckin broken in every DBZ game.

I think T2 was better, imo.

And budokai 2 was better than budokai 3.

BT: view from behind

B: Hitting from behind

take your pick.

If there ever was a tournament scene for this game I’d imagine they wouldn’t use custom characters. There’s also a mode in T3 that has a ratio type point system sort of similiar to CvsS2 that I digged. Me and Warna Brotha played that a lot for team battles…it’s a pretty good way of evening out since if you’re going to choose a higher powered charcter he’s going to take more points. All I want is something on the same level of T3 and T2 with decent online code…PLEASE RAGING BLAST 2…

Hated the control scheme for this game. Fuctions changed depending on your distance and what you were pressing. The startup frames on a grab are horrendous, and the frame rate was slower compared to the vanilla budokai games. Would rather play B2 then BT3, though I do wish I had a GC stick for that game.

I say IW was mentioned. Does anyone know if that game has the exclusive B2 fusions like Goku/Satan and Yamcha/Tien?
