Although there have been umpteen "fans-only " (read: deplorable) games based on the Dragon Ball animated series, last year's Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi was a step in the right direction, delivering a fast, accessible fighting experience that you didn't have to be a fan to enjoy. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 is the same game at heart, but it packs in a raft of new additions, refinements and improvements. For this round, you can fight as nearly 130 spiky-haired characters from ...

We've gone head-to-head with the spiky-haired aliens of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 once before, and we came away impressed. Since then, however, we've had a chance to play the hell out of a nearly finished version of the game - and we're still impressed.

That's really about it, but ...   » Read Full Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 preview

After about umpteen kajillion attempts at making a Dragon Ball Z game, last year's Budokai Tenkaichi was the first to really get it right. Unfolding from a third-person perspective, it captured the feel of the mega-popular anime almost perfectly, enabling players to freely fly around a huge, 3D battlefield while beating the crap out of a super-powered opponent in lightning-fast aerial fistfights. The sequel - imaginatively titled Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 - is poised to build on the ...   » Read Full Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 preview

Although they started off with some cripplingly rough edges (not that fans like to admit it), the Dragon Ball Z fighting games on PS2 have grown into their massively beloved subject matter. The last Tenkaichi finally gave the player the freedom to fly all over the battlefield, machine-gunning punches, kicks, and energy blasts toward their target and countering similar attacks with superhuman power - just like it should be. This sequel adds in the two things that DBZ die-hards really thought the ...   » Read Full Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 preview
