A Real Let Down For The DBZ series...
I played this game for XBox 360 and as a fan of other DBZ games and a MAJOR fan of the anime I can tell you this game lacks about 90% of the excitement of previous DBZ games. The only thing this game truly brings to the table that we havent seen before is improved graphics...THATS IT!!! There are too many cutscenes during the fights (this becomes annoying the more you play) that seem as if they are going to build up on what's already happening in the fight and once your excitement builds to see what happens it just goes back to the fight as if nothing happened.

Pros:
- Graphics
- Good voice-overs

Cons:
- The game ends at the end of the Cell saga - No characters who appear in the Buu Saga or after (including GT) appear in this game.
- Less transformations.
- Crappy power moves.
- Annoying cutscenes during the fight where the characters only talk and don't perform any power moves.
- The list goes on...

Basically nothing you loved about the older games like Budokai or Tenkaichi are featured in this game. As I mentioned this game lacks too much to even be a competitor with the other DBZ games. I would not recomment BUYING this game. But if you find yourself with absolutely nothing else in the world to do it would be good to rent.

not worth the money
i bought this game from walmart recently and it is a disgrace to the dbz franchise. It has this little crappy cut scenes that get interupt the fight like 7 times in one fight and not that many characters to choose from only 21... And you hardly have any ki attacks like for goku you got kamehameha and spirit bomb.. thats basically it. thois game sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

Transport this game back 3 years and it'd be worth buying.
As a long standing owner of Xboxes (the original and now a 360) I was pretty excited to see a DBZ game on an Xbox finally. I've played Budokai on the psp and some Tenkaichi on the PS2.

This game plays like a ported copy of the PSP game with better cutscenes. As was mentioned in some of the other reviews, the game stops at the end of the Cell Saga. I can't even think of any other DBZ games that do that. The transformations are a bare minimum, with Goku being the only character I found with more than one (Kaioken and SSJ1).

Long story short, Tenkaichi 2 on the PS2 was twice as good as this game and that's been out for years. The only way you should even consider buying this game is if you're a DBZ fan that's never played a DBZ video game, and you don't have access to a PS2 or 3. The -only- thing this game has over any other DBZ game, even the PSP versions, is decent voiceovers and cutscenes.

Upgrade downgrade
So i bought this game yesterday 6-11. Couldnt wait to get off work so i could go play. put the game in and actually sit through the tutorials. Lets say i was very impressed with gameplay and how fluent it worlked. After i finished tutorial i went to the saga. Now being someone that owned all budokai's i was expecting a decent length and substancial storyline. To say the least i was wrong. I finished the story that night. I mean what a rip i only got up to the cell saga? I came in thinking it was all the way through to buu at least and had all the characters i came to love in budokai 3. Instead of giving me movies at the end of each saga they could have put some effort into actually finishing the series. When i buy a game i buy it for substance some good gameplay. Not half of a game with better graphics. Btw they include the first disk of season one which pissed me off even more. Since season one came out last year if not two years ago and most of us hardcore fans already bought the complete set. What are we going to do with one out of six disks in a set. Just a way to get ppl to sink more money into this franchise. I strongly urge everyone to rent this game before buying so you can see exactly what its worth. Maybe $[...] tops if you dont have a good budokai to play. "time to hook back up the ps2"

Anime or videogame?
The Dragonball Z game to wish for. Well definitly the one to get for the next generation systems. With awesome visuals and tight game control this is far probably the best DBZ game thus far. The graphics are real smooth and very colorful in this game. Making it very addictive to watch. Even if you own all the previous DBZ games on the PS2. Watching this one on the screen will make you cash up your money just for the visuals and the game control is actually pretty good in Burst Limit.
Same storylines as always but this time they only threw in the primary action lines just enough for you to know what's going on. Then next thing you know the action is rolling! My opinoin this DBZ is worth it for any DBZ fan and the graphics will probably draw in other fighting fans. DragonBall Z Burst Limit for the next generation systems is the one to get!
