   Summary: Repetitive action
Though the game does have some interesting features such as tournament mode, flying, capsules and others the moves are repetitive. Some move have different names but are exactly the same as someone elses moves. I found the game fun for about five hours then it got boring and repetitive.
I wouldn't recomend buying this game, possibly renting it for a while though.

   Summary: Budokai 3 Mops It Up
The third installment of the Dragonball Z: Budokai francise, this game is far and away the best of the series so far. The graphics have been improved greatly, and a host of new characters have been added. But the best new feature in the latest installment, is the revamped Dragon Universe mode. Anyone who has played DBZ:B2 is reminded of the linear maps and cheesy icons to represent your players on the board. No longer! You can actually fly around Earth and explore, find new skills, and even meet with a variety of characters known throughout the DBZ universe.

New additions to the combat system have also been added. Most notible is "Hyper Mode", the trigger system used to unleash your warriors most powerful moves and devastating attacks on your enemies. Also, you can now dodge and "teleport counter" attacks that your opponents try to hit you with, as well as launch rapid-fire "ki" shots, rather than just one at a time.

One of my favorites, are the cut-scenes of the characters ultimate moves, illustrating the devastation they cause. Most ultimate moves also destroy the surrounding terrain, completely altering the combat map you were once fighting on. You can also knock your opponent "off the map", sometimes initiating a cut scene where you can smash your opponents through rocks, off of mountains, and even into a dinosaur on a certain stage.

All of the new graphics were beautifully done, and I give much credit to the game developers for taking this game and making such huge leaps and bounds with the visual display.

The only real flaw in this game that I have found is the CPU tends to abuse the new mechanics in the game at the higher difficulty levels, making the game more frustrating than fun at times, and sometimes downright impossible to defeat. Being "teleport countered" 4 straight times does little more than make me angry, but the added stratum of difficulty can be a welcome addition to more hardcore gamers.

On the whole, I found this game to be very enjoyable. It's a must have for fans of DBZ, and even for those gamers who just enjoy fighting games. With the added elements to the combat system, this game stands apart from others in the genre. It comes highly recomended from me, as it's the most entertaining fighting game I've played in a long time.

   Summary: DBZ Budokai
This game follows the Dragonball Z series from the beginning to the end of the Cell Saga--which is the most annoying thing about it. DBZ doesn't end at the Cell Saga, it ends at the end of the Buu Saga. But the Buu Saga hadn't been shown in America at that point and...
Aw, darnit, I'm going off on a tangent.
Anyways, this game uses a 3D field in one-on-one, hand-to-hand combat, following the battles from the series. This first game uses 3D models, unlike it's sequel; they can be a bit unrealistic at times, but they're well-enough done that it doesn't really matter. The controls (like in any other fighting game) are a bit complicated, but easy enough to use once you've learned them. The gameplay is fun, the voiceovers are wonderful, and the ability system is great. Overall a wonderful game.
