"On paper Dragon Ball Z for Kinect sounds like it may be one of the best Kinect experiences you may find outside of a dance game. However it simply boils down to being a bare-bones offering that provides simplistic and repetitive fights against some of the biggest opponents in Dragon Ball Z with absolutely zero build-up. To top that off, anything that spices up the action usually is met with the Kinect failing to recognize your motions. Dragon Ball Z for Kinect could have been something great, but ultimately is something that should be passed up unless you are dying to see how Episode of Bardock turns out."
Leviathyn.com | You know what they say about games, right? For every good one that releases, two bad ones crop up. There are plenty of those to choose from. These are the worst games of 2012.
GameDynamo - "Similar to Ubisoft's PowerUp Heroes, all actions in Dragon Ball Z for Kinect are gesture-based and displayed on the right side of the screen. Players are able to punch at the air to start a martial art combo, shoot Ki-blasts, guard or dodge attacks through this system, depending on if the battle is in the air or on the ground. "
In the 1990's on through the early 2000's, 'Dragon Ball Z' was easily one of the more popular anime titles on television. It's so-bad-its-good dialogue and voice acting was trumped only by its over-the-top fantasy martial arts and powerful super moves. Now, in the year 2012, fans have their chance of not only controlling the show's characters in a fighting game, but more-or-less being those characters in the Xbox 360 title DragonBall Z for Kinect.
The voice acting was really good, at least the dub was... Especially for its time. C'mon though, the dialogue wasn't that bad, the only real problems DBZ had was the crazy long pauses between talking and fighting, as well as how out of proportion the powers became.
Does it make you hold your arms in the air for a few days to do a spirit bomb?
ohh man i didnt know it was going to be that bad, thats sad!
I CALL UPON THE EARTH AND ITS CREATURES
fuck kinect games are useless, even playstation move is better
i thought Kinect won the award of innovation of the year? Seen like this it should have won the price of garbage piece of junk of the year.
*roll eyes*
5$ EyeToy does much better than this i rememebr that game with Ninjas at least you see your whole body in the screen and it works quite well than this. Where are the games for hardcore they promised ?
