Review of this game was made possible through a PlayStation 3 copy provided by Namco-Bandai. Is this enough, though? Has Spike (and in turn, Namco-Bandai) burned out their fanbase with what could be considered the fifth iteration of the same game in as many years? Or is the attention to detail enough to not only keep around the old fans, but drag in some new ones? Quick Details: ASIN:

Beyond some camera work and yet another completely overhauled graphical system, the game includes a half-hour feature entitled Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans, itself a re-made version of the storyline from a series of products including a Nintendo Famicom game, a visual strategy guide, and two games for the Bandai Playdia.

Despite an overhaul in graphics to the current generation of systems (running at 60 frames per second at 720p), a redesigned control scheme from the prior Sparking! series and an abysmally poor camera made the game more of a curiosity than a product with any longevity.ĭeveloper Spike clearly took some of the criticism to heart and went back to the drawing board for this year’s Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2, also available for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
The gameplay takes a very similar approach to that of its predecessor.The annualization of the Dragon Ball franchise seems like it took its toll on last year’s flagship product: the first Raging Blast for the PS3 and Xbox 360. Destructible environments, and character trademark attacks and transformations return and are true to the series. These include signature "Pursuit Attacks" which enable players to initiate attack combos, juggling the opponent in a string of devastating strikes throughout the environment. Additionally, Raging Blast 2 sports the new Raging Soul System which enables characters to reach a special state, increasing their combat abilities to the ultimate level. While in Raging Soul mode, Super or Ultimate Attacks cannot be used unless a special item is equipped. Raging Soul also gives incredible boost of strength and defense to the character. A purple aura surrounds the character, the sky turns a fair bit darker and more clouds gather.
Other notable changes are the game's theme "Battle of Omega" playing during the length of Raging Soul however, the player can change what music plays during the mode after getting the wish for it by Shenron and changing it in the options. Also new to the franchise, is the "Armor Break" where you can destroy your opponents' clothes and armor using with Ultimate Blast. The timer of Raging Soul decreases over time, but will decrease faster if ki or charged Ki Blasts are sent at the opponent. Raging Soul also allows the player to dash infinitely without depleting the timer. The AI tends to use Raging Soul more often then Super Attacks. Higher AI will always use the combo against players. Raging Blast 2's "story mode" is the "Galaxy Mode", as Bandai Namco Games America announced. It works like the story in Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2 and Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3, that you pick a character and play his or her respective story, with what-if battles as well. At the end of each story there is a boss fight, which makes a powerful enemy, like Ultimate Gohan vs Super Buu (Gotenks absorbed) where Gohan starts with 1 HP. As strange as it sounds, this is the only modern Dragon Ball game which does not have a proper story mode.
The Battle Zones that must be complete are: Square Zone-Ultimate Zone or Ultimate Square-Final Ultimate Zone. While playing those new Battle Modes (Battle Zone), "Enhanced Characters" can be unlocked, such as Mecha Frieza. Also, various amount of titles can be unlocked depending on the character used.
