From GT: "Overall, Dragon Ball Origins 2 is a good action game with enough fan service to keep the hardcore set happy and gameplay that will keep non-fans busy and engaged as well. It just never manages to coalesce into a show-stopping, memorable experience. Anyone who gives the game a chance will most likely find something in it they enjoy, but don’t expect people to be talking about this one in the months and years to come. "
411mania: Ahh yes, Dragon Ball. The anime series that all of my friends seemed to love and adore and I could never get behind. There was just too much stalling and long close ups of faces for me, but clearly the story told had to be somewhat interesting, right? Based off what I’ve read, yeah, it seems the stories are pretty interesting, but I just can’t get into the shows.
NWR: The story of the Dragon Ball franchise exists as a blurry childhood memory in my mind. Images of children with giant hair, glowing people screaming in the sky, and an evil pink blob fighting a green man are about the only scenes I can clearly recall. My experiences with Dragon Ball and gaming are slightly more robust, as for quite some time I enjoyed the Budokai series of fighting games...
Extreme Gamer writes: "Another Dragon Ball game? How many balls does a Dragon have? I don’t know if I want to find out, but if you’re a fan of the anime you’re probably rejoicing. If not, you probably don’t know what a “kamehameha” is. Unfortunately, this game doesn’t give you a reason to care."
