    Oozes superiority, quality, class and eminence; it's a cut above the rest, taking the fighting genre and painting it red.

    After all is said and done this is the best Budokai to date however there are still two or three major flaws preventing Budokai 3 from being a truly great game.

    You can only ride on the license for so long before things get stale, and that's exactly what's happened here. If you loved the first two, you'll still probably love this one, but when do fighting game fans get to have fun with a DBZ game?

    Looks okay, but it's not a deep game at all.
