Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai Another Road - hands-on

We button-mash our way through fully 3D, fireball-filled aerial beatdowns

Another Road, as it turns out, takes place in an alternate future, specifically the one inhabited by Future Trunks. For non-fans, here's the short version: in one of the DBZ story arcs, Trunks, the teenage son of two characters, came back from a post-apocalyptic future, Terminator-style, to prevent the apocalypse from happening. Another Road looks at what might have happened in that future if he hadn't come back, telling the story of his fight against the demonic Majin Buu.

Despite the alternate timeline, old favorites like Vegeta and Goku are still flying around and kicking ass in Another Road, so fans shouldn't have much to complain about on that front.

After graduating from college in 2000 with a BA in journalism, I worked for five years as a copy editor, page designer and videogame-review columnist at a couple of mid-sized newspapers you've never heard of. My column eventually got me a freelancing gig with GMR magazine, which folded a few months later. I was hired on full-time by GamesRadar in late 2005, and have since been paid actual money to write silly articles about lovable blobs.
