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

HolyOrangeCows4733d 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.

CaptainSheep4733d 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_Mega4733d 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?

Mittaneckstyle4733d ago

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

MidnytRain4733d 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)

Kingsora4733d ago

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

Mittaneckstyle4733d ago

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

CNXN4733d ago

Budokai was the last great DBZ game

newn4gguy4733d ago

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

gunnerforlife4733d ago

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

InfiniteJustice4733d 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 :/

vickers5004729d 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.

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow4d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1823d ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie3d ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Take a nap, conspiracies are rotting your brain.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow2d ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Cockney1d 21h ago

They chose well, Sony gave them the backing to pursue their dreams with no restrictions even tho their games especially dreams have very niche appeal. Media molecule and Sony deserve respect for this in an age of risk averse publishing.

RNTody3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno3d ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno3d ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii2d ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno2d ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
