As the last DBZ game in the PS2's library, Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World is both a mediocre effort and an overall disappointment from Atari and Dimps. Even fans of the series will be hard pressed to favorably compare DBZ: IW against the rest of the Budokai series, mainly due to a modestly tweaked fighting system, a frustrating new mission mode, and tons of missed potential. If you've played a Budokai game before, feel free to skip this last entry.
Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World is the worst Dragon Ball game Game Reactor has ever had the dubious pleasure to review. The game industry almost destroyed the mental health of all their writers. Avoid this game at all costs.
While its budget price may make Infinite World a tempting purchase, previous DBZ games on the PS2 have tread this ground already, and have done so with much more robust fighting systems. You would be better off revisiting Dragon Ball A: Budokai 3, a superior game where the series' fast-paced combat was used to much better effect.
WorthPlaying: "I was really disappointed with Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World, and I already wasn't expecting much from it. Sure, the roster is impressive, and it definitely covers some unique characters, but playing the game feels more like a chore and less like the fun fighter it should be. The addition of non-fighting levels is a step in the wrong direction for the series. Fans should definitely avoid this one, even if they're dying for a new DBZ fix, as this title is likely to turn you off of the series for good."
Flop confirmed for PS2 only.
why do they keep on making those dragon ball games? let the series rest in peace please. Now they want to kill it even more with a Final blow from the FOX movie. this is really sad for any true dragonball fan.
