Oh by the way, The movie I think was very good and was a hit. yes they will be making a second part of that movie. you guy need to stop acting like you don’t like Dragonball. Dragonball has been around for many years. since the 80’s. The cartoon is my childhood memories. I am 24 four years of ages. So yes the movie what a hit. and the game will be a hit if they put in that story mode.

Game looks horrible, movie looks horrible. The characters look like the ones from the movie, which is horrible. Why don’t they just get some dbz cosplay for the movie? no one knows.

I hope it’s not like the othe DBZ games,that all you do is fight.I hope it’s an Action-Adveture kind of thing.I want it to come out for the DS or the PS2 unless I have a WII by the time they realease it.The only Bad thing about it is that the actors don’t look anything like the characters in the anime so I hope they fix that in the game.Anyway,I hope it’s not a disapointment just like Iron Man(the game).

I’m Sorry but after seeing the leaked db trailer they shouldn’t make it unless they make it right if you ask me cause there are going to be alot of pissed off hardcore dbz fans who will go crazy. at least make the characters look like the character off the show and use what was in the manga which i’ve read millions of time that use there specail attacks ok

In my standards, all Dragon Ball games have been pretty good. No miracles, but still good.
The GBA ones (Legacy of Goku, LoG II, Buu’s Fury, GT Transformation, and DB Advanced Adventure) were all pretty well done. The first three (The DBZ based ones) were all adventure-RPG type, my favourite probably being Buu’s Fury (improvements over time on the original, right?). That suited the system well. GT:T was a good start that led to the better DB:AA in the fighting genre, but comparing the two seems difficult and wrong. I really enjoyed DB:AA because of the story – I did not have the chance to watch DB as a kid, so much of Goku’s junior history is lost to me. Good thing they had reruns on tv for a while, but that didn’t do me any good. Hopefully they’ll become widely available on DVD one day.
On another note, I never played any of the card-based games. When it comes to a beloved series such as DBZ, I don’t see that suiting the franchise at all. Plus, I don’t really like those type of games, unless the card system is well established in the franchise (PokÃ©mon, Yu-Gi-Oh).
Most of the other games were for the main-stream system competitors – GCN, PS2, and X-Box. Being a long-time Nintendo user, I’ve only owned DBZ Sagas for gamecube. I liked it because it was an adventure-type game, more or less like the series if you think about it. There was not really a RPG aspect to it, unless you consider the addition of attributes that make your character stronger. Not quite the same, but almost.
Any other game I’ve played for a mainstream system was a fighting game. I don’t really like fighting games in the first place, and then again I’m not all that great at them either. Let’s just say I’m not good at fighting games because I can’t get into them, and I can’t get into them because I don’t like them. And they’re awful to play with friends – way to competitive! Anyway, the fighting series of DBZ games progressively got better, eventually allowing more freedom on the battlefield with being able to control your flight instead of constantly facing your opponent. Serious lengthy combos were also sifted from later games, with players being able to apply a limited amount of moves themselves (I <3 10X Big bang kamehameha!).
Story is probably one of the most important parts of a good DBZ game in my eyes. All of the GBA DBZ games followed the story through to the end of the Buu Saga pretty well. DBZ Sagas went pretty smoothly through to the end of the Cell Saga, even including playable parts in Trunks’ future. The fighting games always include key fights to the series, but since I don’t own any, I can’t vouch for their completion in the storylines.

What I do know is, is that movie-based games often do disappoint. They are much too short 99% of the time, and the graphics are usually well below par. They are probably rushed to the market by developers forced upon with deadlines. What they really need to be forced upon with when approached to make a game is standards.

Bottom line, I don’t think people should make games based on movies. Not unless they can make it worthwhile, anyway.
