I really wanted to like the BT games but I always had a lot of trouble with the camera being absofuckinglutely awful which they never seemed to fix. Same with the PS3 games, same concept but terrible camera. This is odd because there was one similar game on the PSP that had a camera that wasn't lovely but apparently they didn't want this system in the main games or something? Then all the new 2d ones had less characters and were terrible and ugh.

Away all Goats posted:Which Tenkaichi game are you talking about? Is it Ultimate Tenkaichi? Because it's a completely different style of fighting game to the Budokai Tenkaichi games. I still highly recommend picking up a BT game if you have a working Playstation 2. The learning curve is kind of steep but the fights you can have in that game are the closest thing to the fluid fights you see the series (as opposed to the weird cutscene heavy, rock-paper-scissors decision making some of the other games have). No, I'm pretty sure he's talking about Budokai HD Collection. You can still buy it new for 30 bucks on 360 and PS3.

TARDISman posted:Actually Budokai HD is just Budokai 1 and 3. Doesn't matter since everyone knows the best way to play Budokai is Tenkaichi 2 on Wii with motion controls on. Budokai Tenkaichi 3 on the Wii was so much better because there were more controllers and the motion controls were much more accurate. None of that stupid "Point the controller at the screen and pull it back and then push it forward" or whatever.

The Budokai games (Infinite World included) were straight-up DBZ fighting games, while the Tenkaichi series and everything related to it are more "DBZ simulators". In spite of the similar English titles they're pretty much Appules and oranges. Each game has its ups and downs, but not really fair to compare the series. That said, B3 and BT3 are the ones I have the most nostalgia for. The B3 opening song is practically scarred into my mind. And BT3 has... something else scarred in there.

I'm so glad I managed to get that one and not anything else, because it is simply amazing. I even set up my computer to be able to emulate it now, since Wii looks like turd on modern TV's. I still need something for making the Wii-mote to work though, the LED light part is what throws me off a bit.

From using sometimes over-powered characters like SSJ4 Gogeta's infinite punch-stun to Spamming Frieza's transformations to annoy the hell out of your opponent, BT was the real cause for most controllers getting thrown out of the room or broken. Did I mention Giant Characters?

Giant Characters were easy to deal with once you figured out they basically were just giant targets who you could beat up with little to no effort. The harder characters to deal with were fasts on that could do multiple hits in very little time.

This is Raging Blast instead of BT, but it'll never stop amusing me how goddamn Burter of all people was incredibly strong due to his multi-hit combos. Hell, I routinely tore my friends' teams apart with an all-Ginyu squad of all things.

Have any of you guys played "Dragonball Zenkai Battle Royale"? The learning curve is really steep but from the time I've spent with it there are some interesting mechanics. Dr Gero can't gather ki so you either have to drain or absorb it from your opponents, Android 17 has a cancel based off his power bar so he can extend his melee combos. I tried Broly last time I was at the arcade but I couldn't understand how you're supposed to activate anything but his most basic specia.

StevenM posted:Battle of Z is on the Vita, right? What kind of game is it in comparison to the Budokai/Tenkaichi/Burst/etc games and is it worth buying at the moment? It's a little like a mix of Monster Hunter and Tenkaichi. It revolves around you using a team of characters to complete missions and each character has a different role, Krillin's a healer, Gohan can support others with a power boost, Goku's the beatstick, and so on. I liked what I played of the demo but I know a grand total of 3 people with Vitas and they'd all rather get it on PS3 and have a physical copy.

I have the Vita version and it's decent to play; I've beaten Vegeta and it's pretty fun if a bit button mashy (or maybe I just don't know how to play it right.) Runs fine and I generally like it although I got it when it was on sale at launch.

What do people think of the manga vs anime? I just finished reading through Freeza and it's pretty good, I'll put off final judgement for now though. I didn't grow up with DBZ like most people here seem to have, so it's interesting to be exposed to the manga first. Do people generally think the manga is better? I understand the original DB/DBZ is stuffed with filler.

The manga is undeniably better (even without the driving lessons), but more people have watched the anime so it's the only form of DB most people think of.

The manga is definitely more snappy. Somewhere around Cell/Buu saga the art became a bit angular and detailed backgrounds became something of a rarity, but overall it still reads well.

I understand the original DB/DBZ is stuffed with filler. It defintely changed my opinion alot seeing as I didn't know animes were based off mangas at first. I don't think Ocean Dub here even mention it was part of the manga but I could be remembering wrong. But yeah I was very suprised on how different the pacing was in the manga. Kinda makes me a bit sad that DB does get a bad wrap for being filler like hell, but manga wise Akira doesn't bullshit with the pace. So yeah I was surprised to see Freeza v.s. Goku was not that long.

How much filler did DBZ jam in, though? Compared to modern anime I feel like it only did a couple episodes at a time, and that one article about "when the manga was ending" theories implies the lead from manga to anime wasn't exactly that large. A couple weeks ahead, maybe? 15 year old me would rather have some excess grunting and over explanation as compared to a

DBZ didn't make all new arcs as much as it stretched actual content out past the breaking point, which made everything feel ridiculously slow and tedious. See: the episode where Piccolo confronts Cell. What was six quick pages in the manga got turned into a full episode.
