Charge up with DBZ: Shin Budokai Another Road "Sparring" gameplay vid

The new title in the Budokai series, Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai Another Road, just charged itself to Super Saiyan status with a video. Although there doesn't seem to be anything substantially different from the previous Shin Budokai title, it's still quite exciting to see this new installment in action. More so than that, this video has Goku battling it off with young Gohan in this "Sparring" gameplay footage.

Personally though, I would have preferred to see the teen-Gohan Kamehameha-ing his father away, but for what its worth, the young Gohan in this video redeems himself by charging up to Super Saiyan (sometime after the 50-second mark) mode. Check it out:

Lame.

That was a really lame fight, wow. What was he doing? Everytime goku got hit back, he just pulled off the same combo into the air, and then gets hit. Wtf?

Get your ***** straight, QJ Bloggers.

Seriously, what is wrong with these bloggers. This footage is 100% definately from the first Shin Budokai. If this were from "Another Road" it would at the very least have different graphics, sound effects, character models, music, environments, moves, game engine, etc. This is a disgrace to the QJ site and I'm ashamed to have read it. Whoever wrote this should....ahh...I've run out of criticizm juice. But seriously, this is totally old, not to mention innacurate.

This IS the sequal dip*****, it even has the different perspective where you're looking over you're character's shoulder/

This isn't Shin Budokai 1. You're a god damn idiot.

The Players Suck

The Players Suck in this O_o seriously, are they like 2 AI?? Cos the AI in the first game were really really stupid (though on higher levels they cheated like no ones buisness)

Not really a sequal - or improvement

barely changed from the last one, still looks good when playing...but lacks any real depth of moves and combos after a few days will be too repetitive to play and will be forgotten about like the last one
by - 2007-02-03 08:57:23
Damn

I loved the first one, and aside from the new camera angle thing, this new one looks exactly the same. I don't really like the new camera either, it's probably going to make the game look less cool.

This Sucks

If this is how Shin Budokai another road is going to be then I won't buy or I will dl by some other means. I was waiting for something much more better, a lot similar to Budokai 3 with all the dragon rush and the kameha blasting into each other... So disappointed.
by - 2007-02-03 09:51:25
Um...

That player really, REALLY sucked. I'm sorry, but I think they should have gotten someone with experience in the game to play. They were playing really slow as well, no Zanzoken or something.

dasf

What a dissapointment. It's almost exactly the same as the first, just a different camera angle (which should have been included in the 1st...) This makes me sad...:(
by - 2007-02-04 00:21:14
Hmph.

Well, the clip didn't show much improvement, but the players didn't seem to be the best, either. (AI?) Maybe they have included some things to make it more like budokai 3, or tenkaichi? What updates I could see from that sparring video were: The camera angle The blue bar under the healthbars (what's this? might be the same system as used in tenkaichi for evolving and super finishes... dunno) That's all I saw... the video was quite boring and they surely didn't show all of the features, I hope. :)

Found another video..

Here's another video of the game: DBZ Shin Budokai: Another Road 'Fire' ( link: http://www.gamevideos.com:80/video/id/8948 ) Well, didn't see much difference, but atleast there was an older trunks and fat majin buu, plus, you can see Trunks using aura burst and a meter shows up down in the left corner.. +)
