User Comments about the Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2

Tons of fun, especially when you go against your brother and have such epic struggles that you about break your controller and blind yourself with the blazing speed of the fight. I absolutely love it, it is one of the best games on the platform. This game is so awesome that I played it for months and months and possibly even over a year after I got it. I like the fighting engine a lot more than other DBZ fighters like Budokai. However, despite how awesome this is, the 3rd sequel has been released and it's even better, so you should get that instead.



Nothing was wrong with said Item, it's a great game and the price was right.



If you haven't then I might suggest you just stick with Tenkaichi 2. What I did buy the game for was the huge number of characters. And what about characters from Dragonball, and Dragonball GT. I have yet to play Tenkaichi 3, but I expect it will be as good if not better than this game. On top of that there is no way that you can start a combination with a kick.


In the new game there are also more possible combinations, although like with Tenkaichi 1 it is still more limited than DBZ Budokai 1 - 3. When is a game going to come when people will be able to play as any of Cooler's henchmen, King Cold, or The Spice Boys. Unfortunately there are still many characters missing, even though they are minor ones. In some ways this is a bit of a let-down, but in the end neither of those features are what I bought the game for. There are more characters than any other game in Tenkaichi 2, a bigger story mode, and best of all: In-game transformations. Out of the games I have played, this is the best Dragonball Z Budokai game of the series. Instead you had to play as either the normal character, or one of his/her transformations.


Still it is a good, fun game, and I expect big things out of Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3. I was so annoyed, when Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 1 came out, without any transformations. There are still more than before, and I have heard that Tenkaichi 3 has even more. The controls of Tenkaichi 2 are the same as in 1, so I would advise buying 1 before you play 2, so you can get used to the controls, if you have only played any of the original Dragonball Z Budokai games. The graphics are essentially the same as Tenkaichi 1, and the same with the music.


One feature that I would love to see in a new Dragoball Z game is kicking. Now in Tenkaichi 2 you can choose to either play as a normal character, and have the option to transform, or you can still play only as one of the character's transformations. In both of the Tenkaichi games, you are only able to use one of two attack buttons, but the attacks could be punches or kicks. In the past they have included characters, and stories from these series, so why not include all the characters.I suppose however that the producers want to emphasize the fact that it is a DRAGONBALL Z game, and not a DRAGONBALL, or GT game.


I have had this game since the first day it was released and I can tell you I had high hopes for this game and it has yet to let me down.The good: There is about 100 different chars you can end up withThe storyline mode is great to play in and takes you quite a while to even get finished with that as you need to hit up so many different area on the map or you could miss out on items or even piece of a new personThe fighting controls make the game one of the best I have ever played, you can pretty much defend against all attacks with many different type of skills and abilitiesThe only bad thing about the game is that even at the hardest level you can put it at fighting jsut seems so easy only time The computer almost never beats me in free for all battle( 5 vs 5 I think) only when I give the computer all giant Apes or other huge monsters and give myself some of the weakest fighters in the game I have a good chance at losing.For some reason the computer level seems to go up and down during battles, for example I will give the computer a very weak, small and slow character, and yet the computer fights very very well but at time during the match the computer seems to be less and less harder and at times can be very easily overpowered with a simple character that could be easily killed within a few seconds if you are not on your toes.



I think this game is one of the best Dragon Ball games I've owned so far.More challenging and more options.Its deffinatly worth it. Highly recommended for DBZ fans like me. :D
