Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit

Epic cutscenes, same gameplay as previous games, character selection seems dull.

I wouldn't say this is good at all.

The demo at least made me laugh. It gave you two levels, both times i kicked the living **** out of my opponent, then it went to a cut scene and i lost anyway rotfl

Sorta sacrifices gameplay for story i feel, if I'm beating the living snot out of someone i don't expect to lose in the end anyway just for story sake. But hey maybe that's how it goes, i don't know much about DBZ, seemed a bit stupid though.

I've got it. It's the kind of game you'll only enjoy if you like the series and/or other games you've played.

The drama peices can get very annoying, especially if you're fighting as or against Broly who constantly sounds like he's having a rather violent orgasm.

As for difficulty, there's six difficulty settings overall with an almost perfect curve. Though obviously some matches are rather imbalanced such as Broly vs Krillin (who is about 1/3 the size and subsequently irritiatingly hard to attack) and goku (non-ssj) vs frieza. These matches have the drama problem outlined above.

Uhh, character selection was disappointing, especially since he majority of games now have all characters from all sagas and all series. This was just DBZ from Saiyan to Cell. Not much I can say on that other than the company's involved will be milking the series through as many games as possible for the 360 just like the PS2 by having 16 new games each with 2 characters more than the last.

Enjoyable, but only if you like the series and have people to play with. Certainly not something I'd reccomend over the higher rated games.

I can expect the cutscenes to be very annoying, much like the "R button air combo" semi-cutscenes in PSP's Shin Budokai series, especially Gotenks'.

And yes the character selection is very much a letdown. It's not even fully Cell Saga too. I believe there's up to Cell first form?

You get basic forms and have to transform in battle. Frieza and Cell for example start at their basic forms but you can power up quite a few times. It's irritating.
