What's New?

New bad guys to face, new moves including instant transmission, proper kamehameha beams, and other ones to unlock later in the game. New scenarios for you to roam around and have fun with, new allies and a lot more new techniques and transformations for you to learn.
Game
*****
You start off on snake way, snake way is this long road that floats in the air when you are dead in another dimension, which is in the shape of a snake, and you need to go across it to get to north Kai's planet. But at the beginning you are heading to Yami, whom is the keeper of the dead. You end up having to go to the other world and train there and fight the other world tournament to prove that you are worthy of the training of the Grand Kai himself. But first you will have to test your might and show off that you are a brilliant fighter to the other people on the Grand Kai planet.
As in this game you start at a nice level of level 60, which makes you better then them, so you should be able to eliminate them pretty easily. You will need to test yourself against many worthy adversaries in this game, and become the strongest and take on the might pink blob called Buu, the worst threat that the planet Earth, or even the universe has ever had. Buu is the evil scum that have been summoned back to life by an evil being called Babadi, whom wants to fulfil his fathers ambition and rid control the universe with the help of Buu. That is pretty much the basic story of the game, so if any of that makes you want to play this game, then by well play it.

Casual Questions
***************
Here are will answer some questions that will probably occur.
I like the sound of this game, but where do I purchase this?
Shamefully this game is not yet out in the UK, but you can buy it from America, for a cheapish price, but it will hopefully be coming out in the UK soon.
Ok, so I know I am unable to get it at the moment, but is there any way of me playing it?
Well you can get a ROM of it which allows you to play so much of the game, before it tells you it can't continue mainly because the emulator and ROM do not allow it, but if you really want to try it, then do that.
How do I level up in this game?
You can level up by fighting enemies for experience, depending on how hard the enemies are is depending on the experience you receive from defeating the foe.
How will I know when I change characters in the game?
You will know when the time comes.
Is this game just on the Gameboy Advance or on other consoles also?
This game is just on the GBA I'm afraid, but it still worth getting.
If there are any of questions you want to be answered, let me know in a comment, and I'll gladly add the answer to this review along with the question and the user that asked.

This game is very enjoyable, and I did have great fun going through this brilliant game, and defeating the might Buu. All DragonBall Z fans out there will love this game and probably agree it is one of the best DragonBall Z games around. The game is very addictive, you can train for hours and still not get board, and still want to even playing more. The story will keep hold of you for ages and on end, and once completed, you will want to do it all over again.
The game is pretty original; it is based on the TV series Afterlife saga onwards, and has some new enemies, and new basic fighters to fight, and even things that never happen in the TV series. The graphics is fairly good considering it is on the GBA, which means everything is going to be really small and tiny, which makes the games graphics seam really good.
The music to this game is pretty much what you would expect, some decent fighting music with funny tunes to make it all a good game. The sound effects in this game are good, with the footsteps, the thumping and the all sorts of sound effects you normally get, really good.
At the start of the game, it is fairly easy, and a really good time to do some major training, when you fight these first set of fighters on the Grand Kai planet, which you need to fight to show your skills, and if you keep fighting them, you can get some major experience, plus you need to train to a higher level so you can get past the next part. When you get later in the game, it does get surprisingly hard quite quick, so be prepared, and train a lot in the easy areas.
This game is great value if you are able to find it, as I said earlier I don't think it is out in the UK, but I found it quite cheap somewhere at a boot fair, so you never know when you might find it, if you do, and you are a true DragonBall Z fan, then it will be a good time to get it as you might not find it again.
I give this game 5 star * * * * *, as it is by far one of the best DragonBall Z games I have played in ages, and I really enjoyed playing it, and I recommend it to all the DragonBall Z fans out there, also to RPG fans and people whom are fans of games in general, and all of you really. This game is great fun for everyone, and is worth a purchase by any gamer.
THIS GAME IS
A good RPG / Fighting Game
Long
Great Value If You Can Find It
THIS GAME IS NOT
Easy To Find
Boring
The Same As The Other Legacy Of Goku's
Thanks for reading, and sorry again for the big(ish) gap between reviews, starting to loose inspiration again, but I will try to keep up with the reviews.
