It's made by some of the Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged guys, so if anyone likes that, it's really worth checking out.KeioSquad2 said:

That one was awesome because you could change up the story if you played differently. Like, you could keep zarbon on your team until you fought freeza and switch bodies, enabling you to play as freeza. I think you could also do weird things like kill vegeta as piccolo before goku got back, or you could get an ending where Super Saiyan Goku fought Super Saiyan Vegeta.
It was a neat little game.

Want it cause it's Monolithsoft but likely would not care otherwise. Now that this game's finish, I hope they concentrate all their efforts on the Wii RPG they announced earlier.
Here are a couple of new but very short gameplay videos :

Speaking of which, Dragonball Kai premiered in Japan on saturday at 9:00 am. So far it's been moving briskly - in the original DBZ, it took about 2 full episodes before you found out that Radditz was Goku's brother, but in Dragonball Kai, this happens within the first episode.
Much more enjoyable, IMO.

zoku88 said:I had no idea that you could do all of that stuff
Mine played out like the actual story
EDIT: Actually, I remember having trouble with raditz at the beginning of the game. I tried to grind, but the game stops giving you enemies after a while XD
There's a house in the middle of the continent where you can train as Piccolo before you fight Radditz (or maybe its during the vegeta fight... I forget) that never runs out and lets you power level like mad. If you exploit that house, you can become so powerful that you alter the story.
It's been years since I've played it, but IIRC that single house was the key to getting some strange changes in the game.
All the fun changes in the game start with how fast you do the training at King Kai's.
The less you fuck up, the sooner you come back, and the less fodder you have to sacrifice.
If you do it perfect or near perfect, you get to Earth before the Saiyans do. You can in fact do it poorly enough to arrive after Vegeta joins the fight, making that fight nearly impossible to win.
All the other fun stuff in the game involves fun stuff with Ginyu and keeping Vegeta alive/killing off some random weak character to get SSJ Goku and the SSJ Goku vs. SSJ Vegeta fight.

The Super Famicom RPG was all kinds of awesome. You could even fuse Piccolo with Dende and make him uber-powerful. Not Super Saiyan-level, but pretty close.
The game was full of nice touches, ie. healing a Saiyan with very low health made him stronger (you got an automatic level up) :lol
EDIT: beaten on that.

If my memory isn't failing me, it happened if you maxed Goku and let a minor character die during the final battle with Frieza. Goku would turn into a Super Saiyan, and after Frieza you fought Vegeta as a hidden special boss.TheSonicRetard said:

THATS what it was. Now I remember. You could exploit the Saiyan extra level up very early on in the game and make Goku insanely strong. Thats what I was referencing.
And yeah, I'd normally keep Chozu around and let him die to get Goku to turn into a Super Saiyan.
Jocchan said:
Yes, Dende dies anyways when Frieza powers up to the fourth form, so you might as well Fuse Piccolo with EVERYONE possible, making him max level.
The amazing thing about Dragonball is that while it is probably the most liscensed anime outside of Gundam it has so many great games! This one+a whole bunch of SNES and beyond fighting games+a couple of solid GBA and DS RPGs.

Yeah, I don't remember DBZ very well but I found Kai ep 1 very fast.
Too bad it's not a true remake, the opening and ending look so well and better than the actual anime :O The difference is huge.
Also, was the Baddack part at the beginning in DBZ as well ? I can't remember.

The entire second episode is essentially devoted to it. The particular Barddack scene shown was from the first TV special and isn't referenced in the comic until the freeza saga, though. The footage they used was a mix of the footage from the second episode (mostly the stuff about goku being put in the pod) and that special.
You don't learn who Baddack is (or even see him) until much later in DBZ. About 70 episodes later.
