AFAIK in the manga the Saiyans specifically sought to eliminate Piccolo as he had the highest Power Level on the planet.

Even normal Gohan fought off Vegeta for a bit, after Geets had been hit with a spirit bomb, I guess but still.

So like I actually am not as hype for Xenoverse as I was before the gameplay came out. I really prefer the 1v1 with switching style stuff that were in the Budokai games. This massive big brawl with full active characters seems like it's likely to be a mess where the computer controlled characters mess up your combos and stuff.

Wasn't there a line in the Ocean dub where they all think Vegeta's done for after he gets hit with the spirit bomb, then he crashes down next to them and King Kai (who's keeping an eye on things) yells, "I don't believe this! The Saiyan is even more powerful than he was before?" I'm pretty sure I remember that dialogue, but at the same time, I also remember he was having trouble lifting off and flying immediately after he turned into Sonic the Hedgehog.

Also that Xenoverse trailer was the hypest poo poo. Still not as great as "THE HERO IS GOKU? NO THE HERO IS YOU!" but drat it looks like it'll be a blast to play.

The Ocean voices were definitely better until the Funi cast started hitting their stride around the middle of the Cell saga. Once the Buu arc started they just were the characters and they've only gotten better since. The original Namek dub was legendarily awful.

Chris Sabat trying to imitate Brian Drummond is insufferable to listen to and I'm glad he distanced himself from it but as a result it feels weird hearing ultra deep voiced Vegeta in the Saiyan Saga.

The biggest mind blow was when, years later, I found out Ocean suddenly picked up where they left off. Sadly they seemed to have gotten worse over the years.

They even use the same scripts as Funimation. The lines are identical, they just have different voices.

So, somehow I only just discovered Super Dragon Soul. Goddamn this song is cheesy as hell and goddamn it kicks rear end. Especially when you look up the lyrics and discover that the guy's singing this triumphant tune about how Goku is going to kick your rear end and show the universe the power of love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFMRTeHJfXo

I know it won't happen, but it would be cool if in Xenoverse, characters reacted differently to you based on your race. Like, Raditz, Nappa, and Vegeta should freak out when they see you if you're playing as one of Freeza's race.

After Vegeta transforms into a giant ape, is Goku's approximate response of "He must be the one who killed my grandfather!" unique to a particular dub, or is it in the manga as well? I can't remember.

I remember reading (I think from Scott McNeil himself) that the poor performances were a result of bad directing, rushed production, and just some really crap recording sessions overall Sucks because as a kid I always thought Peter Kelamis loving nailed it in those original Geneon dubs of those first few movies, but they had much higher production values overall I think.

I honestly grew up with the Funi dub for the most part (I very faintly remember seeing Rock the Dragon and the eyecatch at a babysitter's house when I was like 2) so that's where most of my nostalgia lies. Hell, I don't think I actually started regularly watching until Cell.

Not exactly that but the datamined master lines have Raditz, Nappa, and Bardock explicitly refer to your character as a Saiyan, which makes me wonder if they'll only train Saiyans.
