Trailer and gameplay from new Dragon Ball game is very innovative

In the Japanese arcade a new game is just released called Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Zenkai Battle Royale. This is not the latest Dragon Ball game that comes out this year for PS3 and 360. This game is currently only playable in the arcades. However, it is likely that this game will be ported to the PS3 game because it is made with PS3 hardware, so a port is not that difficult.

Let us hope we will see a game like this soon on consoles. I am sick of always the same DB fighters, I want something different. The franchise has enough potential

HolyOrangeCows4714d ago

This is arcade only right now? Darn you, Arcades; you're supposed to be dead, not stealing the first innovative DBZ game since whatever the first one was.

CaptainSheep4715d ago

I doubt it'll be ported to the PS3. It's not that huge for a PS3 game.. But if they use the same hardware they used for this game and then make a PS3 game, that'd be neat.

Neko_Mega4714d ago

Why do you doubt? Playstation is big in Japan and I think more people brought DBZ games for Playstation systems then any other.

I can see this coming to PS3 and wasn't this game already listed as a PS3?

Mittaneckstyle4714d ago

What kind of game is it? I never heard of it

MidnytRain4714d ago

They tried to turn it into a friggin' adventure game, which has obvious design impediments. In my opinion, it was the worst DB game.

Bad execution. Basically an RPG stlye DBZ (makes sense right? They fight get stronger?) The only thing was that the characters weren't unique enough, they all basically had the same moves, and the abilities were basica and underwhelming.

If a proper RPG was made where you got all the 5 cities, the World Tournament Island, the Tundra (with RRA base), the Forest and Desert the game would be awesome. (With destruction in every area too)

Kingsora4714d ago

There is also a gameplay video in the link, it looks euh special

Mittaneckstyle4714d ago

Yes indeed, but what's up with all those bars?? >.>

CNXN4714d ago

Budokai was the last great DBZ game

newn4gguy4714d ago

I don't know, man. Raging Blast was pretty good.

gunnerforlife4714d ago

i clocked that game to the max, beat everything it had :)

InfiniteJustice4714d ago

@gunnerforlife

Same here. It was my favourite fighter on PS2, I even remember doing every single one of the Red Ribbon arena fights - that took hundreds of hours.

I sort of wish they would go back to the Budokai system. I don't really care for the Tenkaichi flying/ open battlefield mechanics :/

vickers5004710d ago

Agree with all of you. They should just make Budokai 4. Raging Blast (from what I could tell) was a watered down version of Budokai.

I don't see why they keep making the same damn game over and over again that nobody wants, I'm pretty sure not very many people like the Tenkaichi games.

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing696h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker6h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing696h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos12h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto11h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger8811h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies1h ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
