Dragon Ball Raging Blast for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

The last DBZ game I played was Dragonball Z: Infinite World for PS2. The game was alot of fun and very creative, so much so, that I thought the Dragonball Video Games had reach their full 'Fun-ness" potential. Ontop of the Budokai fighting style, you also had different challenges never before seen in Budokai or Tencaichi style games. For instance, you actually run down Snake Way, or as Cell, you escape from Piccolo. Dragonball Z: Raging Blast blows that all out of the water. The gameplay is in the open world Tencaichi style with controls that are difficult to learn, yet impossible to forget. The graphics are incredible with every detail of the background perfected and in place. The characters no longer have that blocky style that previous titles gave them, and the special and ultimate attacks are beautiful to see. However, this game has a Saga in the Dragonball World (the story mode), that other games have tried, but never got to far into. This game has a "What if," saga, which has 2 senarios pitting Vegeto against Gogeta, seeing what would happen should either fused fighter win, it answers the question of who is the strongest earthling, Future Trunks comes back to fight with Kid Trunks, and ladies and gentleman....Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta is revealed in this game! Yes, you read that right, Vegeta reaches Super Saiyan 3, as does Broly, though sadly it does not show in detail how it happens. The only downside to this game that I can write about is the lack of creativity in the aftermath of an ultimate attack. The attacks may be brought about in their own way, but the opponent reaction, the world view, and the way the level looks after the attack (like the giant Spirit bomb, or the Final Flash), doesn't change. I thought that was a bit of a shame, however its hardly a damper in this near perfect experience this game offers.

really well done. Its fun for beginners because it can kind of work as a button masher, but it is also fun for advanced players as you can always be getting better and learning new moves.
