DragonBall Z: Burst Limit video pummels your eyes

by Nick Doerr { May 11th 2008 at 9:00PM }

The majority of you will enjoy this DragonBall Z: Burst Limit video for what it does have: a heavy helping of awesome. Some of you will continue to be turned off by the graphical style. A few of you will make tired jokes about power levels. One of you will type "first" as your comment. It will be deleted. What are we talking about? We aren't sure because our minds were melted by what will probably be the best-looking and has been the most promising DBZ title to date. Enjoy!

Fir..

lol, kidding. I use to watch the show as a kid, good memories it will be.

I think it is about time that someone created some new scenarios for the game. I mean, how many times can you tell the same arcs?

The "What ifs" are probably a good start.

It's not about telling the arcs, it's about fighting. look at the vids.

Graphically, I think Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm looks better. Dimps can learn a few things from Cyberconnect2. Theres something about the character models lighting that makes them look like they're glowing from the inside out, instead of the light hitting the character models. The best example to look at is Gohan...his lighting just looks backwards. I guess it's just me.

Otherwise the game itself took a step foward and a step back at the same time. The gameplay & graphics have improved but we only get half story and half the characters. Now don't get me wrong, I'm still buying the game....even though I know they're going to make a 2 and 3 a little better each time.

for one, dimps never did a cel-shaded anything before, second, naruto is coming out later this year as opposed to like 3 weeks from now, and third, naruto is ps3-exclusive :)

i'm just mainly excited about the new combat system, there's a ki blast button!! just like the original super famicom ones...

Naruto has a more organic art style, more fluid. DBZ's art and animation style has always been more about angles and quickness. i think i prefer Naruto, but i'd like to see more of each. There's nothing saying you can't enjoy both though.

Alex @ May 11th 2008 11:04PM

Jove @ May 11th 2008 11:12PM

Jove @ May 11th 2008 11:13PM

Mike @ May 12th 2008 12:14AM

They dont look like ps3 thats like u saying the new naruto game looks like the ps2 ones get your eyes checked not to be rude...

Jove @ May 12th 2008 12:16AM

dude, look at that and tell me you find something different than the buddokai 3 whatever of the ps2 era. lets be honest here, its not such a step forward.

There's obvious differences between the two. I shouldn't of even had to post this.

I thought I had gotten over my DBZ craze after playing Legacy of Goku. This video makes me feel like I'm 10 again watching DBZ on Toonami. I can't wait for this.

leiwei @ May 11th 2008 11:35PM

Ahh memories. I'm hoping for destructible environments and tons of characters. Hope the music also stays in the game. =)

mmendoza27 @ May 12th 2008 1:01AM

SOLD!! Now I definitely know I'm going to pre-order it from Japan if they put Kageyama Hironobu in the game.... his music is so awesome!!! The original Japanese is so great

whyh8 @ May 12th 2008 7:50PM

is it me or is this video of the xbox 360 version. on the button presses it has you press the green a button. but other than that i cant wait to play

2Perfect @ May 12th 2008 4:52AM

love it... and i thought it was gonna suck. It just moved up to my "should-really-buy-list"

courtenay27 @ May 12th 2008 1:10PM

I'm not a DBZ fan, so forgive me if this is common knowledge, but what's the little green guy doing with his tongue out? He looks like he's dry humping Goku at 0:37 and climaxing with a yellow glow??
