I'm phone posting so I can't run a currency conversion right now, but that sounds about right for a new release on the 360. Are new games normally cheaper in £?

When DB copied western comics we ended up with GT, going on and on with one protagonist till nothing made sense anymore. Unfortunately, universe expansion like his is more fanfiction territory-Heroes does it well, but it'd be nice to get more plot concerning the wider world too. Maybe a couple more spin offs or some one shots, or a real sequel instead of an inferior copy.

Mister Roboto posted:

The real reason is that it's a fighting manga and making weaker villains does not work: Gero was weaker than the Saiyans and isn't remembered as nearly as big a threat.

One of my favorite things in DBZ Abridged is after Zarbon piledrives Vegeta into the ground at the end of their first fight. Vegeta gets out of the lake and chokes out "WHY DID I EXPLODE?". The little jokes like that are hilarious to me.

I've never seen Cooler's Revenge, but his fifth form kind of irks me. It's established that Freeza's fourth form is his 'true' form, right? Unlike the rest of the villains in DBZ, it's established Freeza's transformations are power downs instead of power ups. So why does Cooler have a fifth form that is more powerful than his fourth? Is he basically a super Cooler in the fifth form? I'm asking because I've never seen it and maybe they explain it in the movie, but that tidbit never really sat well with me since it's a direct contradiction to Freeza's tranformations.

If it was Super Buu's human extinction attack then why were Tien and Chiaotzu targeted???

Watch the original dub, and whenever something new happens on Namek watch all over again from the beginning of DBZ. Gets you the true experience.

I guess the Faulconer love is a nostalgia trip for people who grew up with it. I grew up with it, but I still don't like it.

This for instance, it's super rocky then turns into this weird clown music. That's not intimidating or exciting, it's goofy. Also there are elements that make it sound like it came from a playstation or something.

That's the thing that always struck me with the Faulconer soundtrack. It sounds like something some guy came up with off his laptop, and not in the EDM way, in the "make this soundtrack on a strict budget" way. The Japanese soundtrack may have been super brassy, but it just came off as more dramatic and lavish than the dub's.

Also it's a shame Dragon Ball didn't get as much attention as DBZ. It's a better story and a much better dub.

So I have been hearing a lot of poo poo about Xenoverse but I had no interest in it until I learned there there is strong evidence Pan will be in it. She is not in enough games.

I am just thanking my stars it appears nominally better than the last Bojack storyline. I mean, their faces are still distinguishable so far.

Hopefully it maintains at least that much consistency.

Which means tech an old man cobbled together in a cave is somehow more advanced than what a Galaxy spanning empire controlled by the most powerful non-God in the Universe has at their disposal.

New Multiverse page, art is back to just marginally better than the Bojack special.

New DBM is kind of interesting. Looks like Zen Buu's sneaking around surreptitiously giving people powerups/suggestions in their sleep. I wonder if this means fights like Goku/Freeza and Bra/Cold will actually have some tension to them - I'm tired of watching Goku win his fights in one blow.

DBM Comments posted:

Ah yes, Buu is being very liberal here =3 he is redistrubuting to all the poor souls, what a guy! He seems to have a lot more compassion than some of the heartless conservatives dwelling on this politically imbalanced site. As a liberal I must express my opinion, which I am so rightfully entitled to.

The DBZ Abridged guys understood this, and that is why their parody is a loving one, and not spiteful and mean like so many others that have already been forgotten.

Man, why can't more authors follow Toriyama's method of using seemingly random and inane puns to name characters. As silly as the idea of naming an entire set of characters after vegetables might sound, it makes the names rather memorable.
