I hope its better than burst limit. Not saying it was bad, but it felt like it bumped up the visuals, yet took a step backwards in gameplay. Kinda felt like I was playing the first budokai.

Guys they need to stop they really do the games have been getting worse and worse with every release... They release the first game with 1/3 characters then 2nd with 2/3 then 3rd with nearly all... Then start with 1st game again just renaming it and touching it up some... Its a joke. They should make a DBZ game like Smash brothers with all the characters in it that would ROCK!

I kinda agree with you on that point.But you know what I would really like to see them do. Drop the 3d drogonball, go back to 2d using hand drawn hi-def characters, and run it on an engine similar to MvC or MvSNK(the capcom version). That would be awesome.....ah, wishful thinking.

... but I'd much prefer a Dragon Ball (not Z or GT) adventure/action style game, with all the great stories and humour from the manga in there (and japanese voices ofcourse).

Anyway, a nice anime-fighter is always welcome. I hope it will look as good as Naruto Ultimate Storm, which made great use of cell-shading, and that it will have a nice large collection of characters to choose from. And let's hope they'll stay away from the DLC-scamming.

Ja, I just got Ninja Storm.It's very fun but it makes me nostalgic for the PS2 ultimate ninja games,especially UN2+3;I played them back when they first came out in Japan.

Coincidentally, the developer for Burst Limit also helped Capcom on Street Fighter IV.

how many dragonball games are they going to make? Every single dragonball game after tekianchi* 3 is not needed.

Please be Tenkaichi 4, or tell me that Spike is involved. Burst Limit was the worst DBZ game I've played ever since I started playing the PS2 games.

I hope it's exclusive to the PS3/Xbox 360 platforms so that the devs can take advantage of the hardware and not worry about watering everything down so that it works on the PS2.

12 - Burst Limit was garbage
It felt like a Budokai 1.5. The gameplay took a leap back. Huge disappointment, I was expecting a lot better since it was for Xbox 360 and PS3. The only thing it had going for it was the online and it being in HD.

Being Online and HD is the only thing a LOT of games have over last gen ones.

In fact isn't that the draw of the "HD" machines...?

The fact that it was like a Budokai 1.5 is why I enjoyed it because the first Budokai was my favourite of them all. I hope this time they add RPG elements and the ability to create your own character. Hopefully Spike isn't involved at all because they reek of garbage.

The next DBZ game should be something to look into, but still for me Blue Dragon has been the nicest looking game that akira toriyama has worked on so far. i also hope that they tweak the fighting mechanics a bit of this next DBZ.

looking forward to seeing it at this E3 :)

hopefully it will be a true budokai game or a tenkaichi game. Burst limit was crap. Its the only Dbz game that i regret buying. the games on the game boy advanced and ps2 was the stuff last gen. Been playing those games since day one. budokai 3 gave me blisters and the rubber pads on the analog sticks fell of of two controllers cuz of that game no joke! who ever thought burst limit would be a good game needs to have a powerpole shoved up where the sun dont shine. It like they took budokai 3, stripped away 75% of the characters, made it hd, then took a great ape sized dump on it.
Oh and ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!

17 - If Its Not Tenkaichi
If it isn't Tenkaichi and its another Burst of crap, I'm going to beat another DBZ game in sleep -_- I shock my friends when they seen me a sleep playing DBZ:BL....that is how much it blowed and all my Tenkaichi games got laser burn to death ^-^ to much hardcore playing.

I haven't bought a single DBZ game since Budokai 2. I basically stopped buying them because to me they were essentially the same game being released over and over again. I heard that there was some really neat changes in the Tenkaichi series, but I never got any of them.

DBZ is still one of my favorite anime series of all time, but damn, I wonder how many more DBZ games are they going to make... unless the gameplay is totally revamped or a bunch of really new stuff is added, I don't really see a need for a new one.

I want to see a DBZ game with stuff like Real Time damage and Clothing Deformation as a fight drags on, and when the fight is over you don't look unscathed, there's actual blood dripping and torn clothing. When you power-up, Rocks and particles from the ground hover in the air, etc... and all of those little details that are in the actual TV show.

You really missed out then. Budokai 3 and Tenkaichi budokai 1-3 did that.

I liked the Dragon ball Z games. I didn't get burst limit as I played the first 3 sagas again and again. I was hoping there would be dlc to expand on the sagas.

Burstlimit was horrible. One of the best things about Dragonball is being able to fly and interact with the surroundings. Burstlimit was a slap in the face to the fans of Dragonball. Hopefully its like Tenkaichi, or better.

27 - BURST LIMIT 2 = GO TO THE HELL
IF Namco Bandai is going to develop another burst limit game there is no need to work on it , it's just don't worth it , i can create a similar game with my eyes closed and my hands tied up , all what we want is :

tenkaichi 3 <<< a great graphics , a lot of characters , a lot of moves and combos , online , a free battle space

that's what I'm talking about

pleeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzz Namco Bandai forget about the freaky burst limit , it is just ... too bad :(

I want an RPG like action adventure DBZ game for the consoles just like the legacy of Goku games. They were awesome. Please not like DBZ sagas. That was horrible. Also, please, please, and please add the music from the anime. English and Japanese. I was a huge DBZ fan when i was younger so i want one like it.

M$ has been working on a Dragonball MMO that would come out on Xbox and PC. This could be a good thing for Dragonball fans. You could see some of the gameplay on youtube. Just type in Dragonball MMO. This might be one of their big announcements for E3 this year.
