If you're looking for more information about DBZ Budokai III, I suggest you go visit THIS page. You'll also find a translation of a French article about DBZ:B3, trailers, and screen shots. It's definitely a must-see!

WOW! Kinda scared me at first.... when I read the title realy fast I thought it saids "Budokai 111 Goodbies". So I thought they had canceled the game or something.....

Posted by Musclebobbuffpants @ 06/19/2004 02:31 AM EST


Finally they translated that crap into english. It's not fair that all these french people get the news about DBZ budokai3.

Posted by ShawDowFX @ 06/19/2004 03:42 PM EST


The artical says that the game is also going to come for the PSP....this november or december of 2004.

Posted by ShawDowFX @ 06/19/2004 03:47 PM EST


AHHH my fault...i read it wrong!! lol.. i feel stupid now. But i bet it will come out for the PSP.

Rhiku - ppl like me don't doubt for a second that b3 isn't 4 real. we just think that all the fakeo cover and fake release dates are idiotic. there is no thought in my mind that contradicts the fact that there will be a b3. """"For the 'all-access' sneak peek at this upcoming Dragon Ball Z ® monster hit for PlayStation 2, check out the exclusive first-look cover story in the upcoming October issue of GamePro magazine and Gamepro.com. Dragon Ball Z ® : Budokai(tm) 3 will ship this November in North America."""" For me---that settles it. end of story. can't wait untill november.

@ dranet

Did you even read the whole thing? The guy said that he went to japan and meet the guy who made B3. The japanese didn't say crap, the french dude just stumble right in their company to get a sneak peak.

LOL Yes, I'm not alone! I wish some of those bastards would port the good games to the second best console(in my opinion, X-Box is 1, Gamecube is 2, and PS2 sucks!)
PS2 sells more because it has the good games. Sony better go bankrupt soon, that would make the world a safer and better all around place

I'd have to say it wouldn't be worth buying Budokai the third. The first was DECENT, but the second seemed like more of the same. Plus, no jumping, similar combos for everyone and the tiring style of 3d fighting seen in different games already make this no real shock. Atari's no good at developing DBZ games (exception: Budokai 1), and I don't think they can follow it up well. Think, why buy a crap DBZ game? That's what they want you to do (money obsessed jerks). In any case, that's just an opinion. Budokai 3 might be good, but probably more of the SAME...(long post, huh?)

Posted by [Name] @ 06/23/2004 02:49 PM EST


i disagree i own budokai 1 and its okay, then i got B2 and i love it and i cant wait to buy the 3rd one. ive seen screenshots and it looks great!
here are some of the characters (that are supposed to be) added to the game:Cell (First Form)
Frieza (Third Form)
Cooler
Broly
Gogeta
SSJ4 Goku
SSJ4 Vegeta
SSJ4 Gogeta
Turles
Bardock
Chi-Chi (Late DB)
Little Goku (DB or GT...not sure)
Pan (GT)
Janemba
Tapion
Adult Gohan (Future)
Master Roshi
Uub

and here are some of the new features:
-Kaio-Ken (i know it was already in B1)
-Interesting dodging system for KI attacks
-Very cool looking auras
-Improved Cell Shading [looks really good]

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/23/2004 05:29 PM EST


hey Ferfie good info but everyone already knows that what im confused on is if broly is in movie 8 10 11 android 13 14 and 15 are in movie 7 were the hell are they?(i bet super 13 whould look cool)does anyone know???

Posted by goku @ 06/23/2004 05:51 PM EST


That's funny what MAJIN_GOGETA said. "DBZ Budokai3 should come out for xbox because xbox is way better than PS2". LOL...Here's a little fact, did you know that recently sony has said that by the end of this year. Many games are now starting to use the PS2 graphics to its full power. Like Grand Turismo 4, its one of their games that is using it's full power. I think right now, it's splinter cell.

well Broly(forms 1,2 & 3) isn't the only guy from a DBZ movie there's also Janemba(movie 12) Tapion (movie 13) Cooler (movies 5 & 6) and theres word of Bojack (movie 09) but i am not sure y they wouldnt include the 13,14 & 15. and ya Super 13 would look awesome

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/24/2004 12:34 AM EST


if i find out n e thing on that ill post it

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/24/2004 12:35 AM EST


Still...in regards to Ferfie's reply to my post (with all respects to opinions), with Budokai now at #3, it better be somewhat different from the first two because the core gameplay wasn't much differnt (in #2, you went on a board game thing instead of just story battle). Also, 3rd installments seem to get a little to boring after the first two. I think either Bandai or Capcom would be okay developers for the franchise as action/fighting is their thing. Atari should give up their licence, I mean I actually bought legacy of Goku 1 (shuttup, yes I know...). Anyway, you get the point, I highly doubt that Atari will get some new revolutionary twist for #3. Here's hoping though...

Posted by [Name] @ 06/24/2004 12:44 AM EST


Well in this game there is supposed to be somethong called Dragon road, aswell as Dragon World. if anyone would like to see loads of DBZ B3 screenshots go here: http://dranet.com/?dranet=gameshots_budokai3a

I'm might not even buy budokai 3. I heard from a person who works for atari that there is no story mode. Once again, like budokai 2 there is going to be a dragonworld, but it is not like a board game. You can fly anywere whle looking for the dragonballs. Someone please tell me if he is wrong.

Posted by ssjbuu @ 06/24/2004 02:28 PM EST


tea i like story mode way more then stupid dragonworld

Posted by goku @ 06/24/2004 04:36 PM EST


i said tea i meant yea

Posted by goku @ 06/24/2004 04:36 PM EST


Dragonworld was the main reason why I think B1 was better than B2. And B3 I heard was "supposed" to come out before Christmas but I doubt it.

Posted by Yu Yu @ 06/24/2004 05:04 PM EST


@ Yu Yu,
ya i've heard, from alot of sites that it will come out either in November or October.

@ ssjbuu,
And like i siad before there is supposed to be Dragonroad(???), aswell as dragon world so maybe 1 of them will end up being cool.

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/24/2004 06:10 PM EST


Ferfie, is dragon road supposed to be like a story mode? I found out about another dragon world on budokai 3 from the atari forums. What is dragonroad?

Posted by ssjbuu @ 06/24/2004 06:37 PM EST


NO MORE DRAGONWORLD!!! IT SUCKS!!!

Posted by ssjbuu @ 06/24/2004 06:38 PM EST


ssjbuuk, im not quite sure, i've just heard it metioned lots. sorry.

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/24/2004 06:48 PM EST


sorry i meant ssjbuu not ssjbuuk

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/24/2004 10:22 PM EST


I think DBZ:B3 looks great, but yeah, I agree, I think that if they don't have a story mode, and have the "dragon world" mode from B2 itll suck a lot, IMO... Though it still looks like a definite must-see. Guess we'll just have to wait :(

That is Not true. PS2 is already useing it full power.

--Posted by 69...

No, thats not true and I said some of it is now starting to use it but around 95 persent. Look by the end of this year, you are going to start noticing games may look like computer games because they are going to use the full power of PS2 graphics.

Lookm, even the maker of Splinter Cell said that he was in shocked on how Pandora Tomorrow looks 98 percent excatly like the version of Xbox. And you know because of this, the Microsoft team is now getting scared and they said that XBOX2 is going to come out around early 2005. They don't want their loyal Xbox fans to go all PS2 or PS3 by 2005.

Because of this action, sony has laugh their *** off on what Microsoft did. They said that, microsoft wants only money not the fans. Sony is still going to wait and release PS3 by ends of 2005 or most likely 2006.

Posted by ShawDowFX @ 06/26/2004 10:21 PM EST


Sry if this's off-topic but... Yeah, I think ShawDowFX is right, I personally haven't heard much talk about the PS2 not using full graphics, but come to think of it... all its games have had their graphics just getting better and better and better... The XBox has barely advanced in graphics at all since being made... so, i must say the PS2 is definitely a beter system becuz it has a TON better games (except Halo :(...) and is more... FUN to play... at leats, IMO... peace out... Majin_Sypher™

Posted by Majin_Sypher™ @ 06/27/2004 01:17 AM EST


Budokai 3 most likely has Janemba, because I've seen him on a foriegn budokai 3 cover, and the game has gogeta. It wouldn't be right if the game had gogeta and no Janemba. Gogeta and Janemba fought in one of the movies.

Posted by ssjbuu @ 06/27/2004 04:28 AM EST


Hmmm, I wonder if it has Super 17 or Dr. Myu?

Posted by ssjbuu @ 06/27/2004 04:30 AM EST


Personally, I would think it'd be a shame if they didnt include Super 17... Oh, and I think they should have new settings... like, make it so that ss3 goku could kill Tien in like.. a punch, cause thatd be really cool. (obviously u could toggle "realistic mode" on or off) Oh, and I think they should have maybe... SOME fused characters be able to be selected right off the bat... (Ud have to like... wish for it or something...) but i think thatd rock.. cuz after u beat the game, its like hmmm... now i can use Super 17 or Gogeta... permanantly :).. peace out

Posted by Majin_Sypher™ @ 06/27/2004 04:39 PM EST


It's gonna be great. All i care about is being the best with my favorite character, Vegeta

Posted by mike @ 06/27/2004 09:07 PM EST


I wanna see the final shine attack in action

Posted by Rhiku @ 06/28/2004 12:24 PM EST


to ssjbuu can u give me the website of where u saw this B3 cover, and i do tjink it'll rock cause Atari has made only one crapy DBZ gane, in my opinion, taiketsu, but all of the others are goo including Super Sonic Warriors

Posted by Ferfie @ 06/28/2004 01:44 PM EST


Umm... Rhiku... isnt "Final Shine" just one of Vegetas attacks that some guy invented in his DBGT fanfic?!?... Im pretty sure, cause i can clearly remember reading a long one in which a vegeta kills a ressurected Frieza with a.. "Final Shine" attack... so, i dont see why they would include an attack that was only in a fanfic in the game!!!

Posted by Majin_Sypher™ @ 06/28/2004 03:47 PM EST


Uh, no offense Ferfie, but are you saying Legacy of Goku 1 was good? I hope not because it was not only shorter than a child's story book but the gameplay was more repetetive than watching paint dry...

Posted by [Name] @ 06/28/2004 03:50 PM EST


lets just say that Atari hasn't exactly handled the liscence as well as it could have. I'll say it again, a capcom DBZ game should be a decent fighter or action game.

Posted by mike @ 06/29/2004 11:19 AM EST


@ Ferfie: ah. okay. Well, so you know, I don't think Atari totally messed DBZ up, I just think that a DBZ game should be put to better use. Budokai seems to be the best attempt so far.

I wish that dis game just deals with dbz and the movies only. I hate the way it just has "some" gt characters. Well shoot, if ur gonna put any gt characters in, why don't ya just put em all in!!! This is driving me crazy!!!

Posted by ssjbuu @ 07/06/2004 06:02 AM EST


I got an idea. Why didn't they just make budokai 3 the ultimate dbz game. Why wont they make this the last game of the budokai series? In my opinion, they should finish off the budokai series with a superb game, with a **** load of characters and exellent gameplay. The story mode should start as dragonball, then dragonball z, then all of the dbz movies, and finally into gt. Every character ever should be able to be used in this game. P.S (The story mode should be extra, extra long.)

Posted by ssjbuu @ 07/06/2004 06:10 AM EST


And by the way, there should be well over 70 playable characters.

Posted by ssjbuu @ 07/06/2004 06:16 AM EST


THEY SHOULD ADD EVERY CHARACTER FROM DB TO GT I SAW THE MOVIE CLIP IT HAD SS4 GOKU AND SS4 VEGETA IT DA BOMD.I HEARD COULD CUSTOMIZED YOUR OWN CHARACTER IN DRAGON ROAD.IF THEY MIGHT PUT FREE FLIGHT IN DRAGON ROAD THEY SHOULD MAKE IT MORE LIKE A 3D FREE FLIGHT WHEN I SAW GOKU FLYING IT LOOK MORE LIKE GOKU FLYING IN THE GAME DRAGONBALL Z LEGACY OF GOKU 2 THEY SHOULD PUT THE FREEFLIGHT MORE OF A 2D OR 3D IN DRAGONBALL Z BUDOKAI 3 THEY MIGHT PUT OVER 67 OR 70 PLAYABLE CHARACTER THEY MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT PUT KING VEGET AND BARDOCK HE WASNT IN GT ONLY IN DB AND HE SEEM TIGHT BUT WASNT VERY STRONG WHEN HE TRY TO KILL FRIEZA I HOPE YOU COULD USE OOZURE AND GOLDEN OOZURE THAT WOULD BE SO COOL BECAUSE HE WAS VERY STRONG IN GT WHEN GOKU TRY TO BLAST HIM WITH A SUPER KAMEHAMEHA WAVE IN GT I HOPE THEY PUT ALL THREE FORM ON CELL AND ALL MAJIN BUU FORM AND FRIEZA FORMS BECAUSE WITH OUT THEM IT WOULDNT BE A COMPLET GAME WITH OUT THEM AND THE SHOULD PUT BOLLY AT HIS NORMAL FORM AND COULD CHANGE INTO SUPERSAYAIN AND THEY SHOULD PUT ALL OF COOLER FORMS THEY SOULD MAKE THE DETAIL ALITTLE BETTER IN BUDOKAI 3 HERE A GOOD WEBSITE YOU MIGHT WANNA CHECK OUT YOU MIGHT WANNA TYPE IT IN GOOGLE AND THEN TYPE DBZLOVEACTIONMOVIE DONT PUT WWW.

i really doubt that Budokai 3 will come out for gamecube any time near to when it comes out for PS2, but take for example B2 its been about 7 months since its been out.
