Awesome!

The Good
The way it followed the storyline and made it look like the game was the T.V. series with the episode titles. The voices, opening narration makes everything look like an episode of DBZ. Plus the alternate storyline (Hidden Episodes) were cool. Like Vegeta turning Super Saiyan just when Yajirobe is about to kill him.

The Bad
Sometimes the graphics are a little bad. Especially the Saiyan's tails. Everything they've spoken in the series is changed in the game. Some fights can be tough like Gohan vs. Cell.

The Bottom Line
It's a great game.

Fights, Fights, and more fights!!!

The Good
1. Good graphics. 2. Voice actors on the show are in the game. 3. Your character can be boosted by the eternal dragon. 4. Plenty of pre-fight trash talk. 5. With the right skill you can become Cyber-Frieza. 6. Mr. Satan Mini-Game.

The Bad
1. Holes in the story line. 2. Cell's voice doesn't change. (except when he does the spirit bomb) 3. Cell has the only blue Kamehameha Wave. (The others are yellow) 4. It takes forever to regain the Dragon Balls.

The Bottom Line
Fun IF AND ONLY IF you are a Dragon Ball Z fan otherwise don't even bother. There are over 60 combos for each character meaning a whole lot of hurt for the enemy Mua ha ha ha >:).
