the best so far

The Bottom Line: This game is a must-have for any die-hard DragonBall Z fan and a must for anyone seeking a fast-paced action game
This is the best DragonBall Z game so far. It has the best graphics out of the three budokai series and has the best cut scenes.
The first time I played this game I was amazed. The graphics of the characters and the graphics of the environment was the first thing I noticed. The second thing was that the environment reacted with the battle. Every time a character gets slammed into the ground, there will be a skid mark left over. Also, when charging up on the ground, some rocks begin to levitate and explode. This was also a big plus. The ultimate moves were also a site to behold. After successfully completing an ultimate move, there will be a cut-scene of the earth as it explodes. The choice of over 40 characters was also rewarding.
What I didn't like about this game was the story mode. There was no movie. There was only a 2d character with a message bubble and there was very little voice overs. Another thing I hated was the addition of Dragon Rush. This move enables you to beat the crap out of your opponent but when the computer uses it against you, it becomes a pain.
Other than that, this game is highly recommended for all DragonBall Z fans and others who want a fast-paced fighting game.
