Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku
Description official descriptions
The animated cartoon comes to life. Gohan, a powerful young boy, has been kidnapped and it's up to you as his father Goku, to find him and destroy those who wish to harm his son.
The game follows an RPG style, with battle elements designed similarly to the style of the cartoon, with fireballs, quick moves and more. As the story progresses, you will learn more about the history of the cartoon, meeting a collection of crazy characters and fighting one-on-one battles over long distances as well as close combat. The ten hour quest will take you to Master Roshi's Island, throughout Earth and beyond. Plus an in-game clock keeps tabs on your time limit to complete the game.

TOTALLY CRAPPY!!! A COMPLETE RIP-OFF!
The Good
There was nothing good about this game!
The Bad
The enemies could run faster than you! YOU CAN'T EVEN RUN, FOR GOD'S SAKE! Your punches were weak, the Kai blasts wouldn't hit a thing, it was completely IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!
The Bottom Line
Not worth your money. If you want to try it, rent it. Defiantly a rip-off!

A shameless cash in on the legendary anime
The Good
Music is nice. A Dragon Ball RPG is a cool idea as you see Goku get stronger as the game goes on just like in the anime.
The Bad
Goku starts off very weak. He will die from crabs, dinosaurs, and wolves in the first area of the game which makes him look like a wimp in comparison to the anime. Stupid quests such as finding a pterodactyl's egg and finding a cat. Punching is useless because it leaves you completely defenseless. King Kai teaches Goku the kamehameha instead of the kaioken and the spirit bomb. Omits a lot of the Saiyan and Namek sagas due to only focusing on Goku. The kamehameha has poor hit detection. All bosses are the same. They will charge an energy blast or try to punch you. Ugly portraits of characters in dialogue boxes.
The Bottom Line
Play this game to see how the sequels are vastly superior to this game.

The Good
That it was the first DBZ game released in the US. The gameplay was really good and it followed the storyline to the exact point. Also the ability to use different attacks instead of just Ki Blasts.
The Bad
That the story didn't go past the Frieza Saga because it would have been a lot more interesting. I was also disappointed that you didn't get to fight with anyone else other than Goku.
The Bottom Line
A game you would if your an RPG, fighting, or just a DBZ fan.
