Plenty of high-flying, frenzied, fully 3D fighting for fans of giant fireballs

As with most DBZ games, this is still a bit of a hard sell for non-fans, with tons of content but more than a few rough edges. Its unique, hyperactive fighting does have a lot to offer, however, and players can at least enjoy button-mashing through two-player battles for a little while until the repetitive, high-speed action and identical beatings get dull.

For fans, however, this is easily the best of the franchise yet, with tons of playable characters, a slew of storylines lifted from or inspired by the show, and one-of-a-kind fighting. In short, it's pretty much everything you’d expect from Dragon Ball Z, only good.
