    A totally accessible fighter. Almost anyone can get the hang of it in a few minutes, but that doesn't mean it's easy.

    With the addition of jumping or ducking abilities, an improved movement system, or the ability to fly independently outside of the launch attack, DBZ could definitely have potential to break through its already enormous demographic and become something even bigger.

    A few modest improvements have been made in porting Budokai 2 to the GameCube, but the game just feels late, and a little irrelevant.

    DragonBall Z: Budokai 2 isn't really a fighting game, well it is, it's just not a good one.

    This game is so good and I could play it all day long. The game is as good as Metroid Prime 2 and better than Halo 2!!!!

    It'ss kind of boring but the only part that is boring is doing dragon world over and over for breakthroughs.

    Dreadful game with completely unresponsive controls. A crime.
