Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans


A throwback to the GBA days of DBZ

We’ve lost track of how many Dragon Ball Z games there have been, possibly because there are more than ten and that’s all the fingers we’ve got to count on. Still – one more won’t hurt, eh?

Rather than the many Dragon Ball beat-’em-ups there have been over the years, the DS-based Attack of the Saiyans is a role-playing game, and distinctly of the old school variety. In fact, it resembles nothing so much as the old Dragon Ball RPGs on the Game Boy Advance (phew, that’s going back a bit now), as your party of three characters wanders around exploring and fighting.

The touchscreen is used for very little, though, so while this may be a pleasant enough role-player, it’s very old-fashioned indeed.

This has to be the crappiest review I've ever seen. It's like you cut off all its limbs and left it to bleed and die in a dark shack.

Shameful. |:

I agree... what do you do in this game? What does the story comprise of? controls? RPG system based upon DBZ? Come on... we deserve better.

For the first time, i really do agree that this was a bad review. I mean, some people really had hope for this game, just for you guys to just brush it off like it wasn't even worth writing. Not very fair
