I gave the thumb up for this game and I will explain it later,but first, let me explain why this game is actually bad:
1) This game is NOT competitive(blasphemy mode activated). I've seen guys who say that chars are balanced... they are not; most of them have a peculiar way to fight that differs from char to char, someone has got the Z assist such as N°18, others have got the guardbreak, such as Goku Black. Still believe the contrary? Please go online and check how many Nappa,Ginew and Krillin you see.

2)According to the first point, this game isn't fair. To have a real fair play, 2 players should match with the the same characters and the same non-autofired joypad... that would be a competition, otherwise it is just "fun" (yea, games used to be fun once). You can't even stop the combo by using ki.

3) Original Story mode? Pfff...
Okay, Android 21 is interesting, but that soul connection is totally lame.

4) Small roster... it feels like to play a Nintendo DS game.

5) 2.5D is so limitating for this brand. I mean, I can even fly in Ultimate Battle 22, and that was a PS1 game!

6)It's an online based game, because Arcade has got just 3 sub-arcades and their hard mode respectively, and story mode isn't that much. Should online games cost less than games who have got single and multiplayer?

7) Hard to socialize: unlike XV2, FZ hasn't got the co-op mode, no one is using the social tab even.

---

So you might think that this isn't the right game for you... still it is DBZ.
This game can be a pain in the ass for casual gamers, but it's Dragon Ball. That anime you used to watch on TV when you were a kid, now it returns on your monitor. I must admit that firing a Kamehameha on DBFZ is so damn satisfying; the cool thing is that it's not only about fighting over and over, you can see even how Z warriors and villains act to each other. And especially after all that story mode's mess, Goku will break the fourth wall and he will say "You're the best!", that's the true Dragon Ball's spirit. There's even a fourth wall breaking in game you can achieve by not breaking it, and an easter egg which is not a easter egg, but I will leave the rest for you ;)
If I should give it a vote, it would be 7/10 lol
Enjoy this game.



Edit: Yes, Kid Buu is still a jerk, since Tenkaichi 3.
