    I think this was a big step backwards from tenkaichi. It is not nearly as fun. The move are really wierd. The graphics are worse, and the over all gameplay sux.

    This game is so stupid, seriously. The fighting styles are wierd and the powers are wack. Also, the graphics suck and the worst thing about it is that there are only 18 characters, what's up with that.

    I got this game yesterday, and it is completely awesome. The fighting is as fun and fast paced as you would want in a Dragonball Z game, and there is enough depth to keep "hardcore" fighting gamers interested for a long while, learning their characters and tweaking strategies. The only thing that might kill the balance of the game is that you can pump up your fighters, but that's one of the main fun things to do in the game, and you can always play the vanilla version of any character to keep the playing field even.… Expand

    Old school fighting that really isn't that good does nothing to replicate the dragon ball world DBZ Budokai 3 was the pinnacle and the most faithful of fighting engines to the anime, this is a major step backwards the creators should hang their heads in shame

    This game get a lot of hate for no reason whatsoever. Yes you can't zoom around the landscape or spam teleports and massive fireballs. There are plenty of other fighter games that allow you to do that. This is more of a technical fighting game for the universe. Noritaka Funamizu from Street Fighter 2 provided input, and you can really tell. It feels more like an SF2 EX fighting game, than a Budokai one. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but certainly not for everyone.… Expand

    The gameplay is where Super DBZ truly shines. From the first time you load up and play Super DBZ, you'll notice the game religiously pays homage to the Akira Toriyama Dragon Ball universe.

    Designed to appeal to traditional fighting fans before anime nuts, its strengths lay more to the thinking player's side of things rather than the casual. Had it boasted a larger move set and perhaps a few more playable characters, then its value as a long-term tournament title might have been higher.

    Overall Super Dragon Ball Z would be [better] described as "slightly different" than "new and improved."
