If you've been looking for some DragonBall Z: Burst Limit gameplay, this is probably not the video for you. There's only thirty seconds of your favorite characters beating each other into oblivion. It's awesome, naturally, but the first half of the video focuses on the world utilizing Goku's kamehameha in their own worlds. It's entertaining. We're sure the game is, too.

The majority of you will enjoy this DragonBall Z: Burst Limit video for what it does have: a heavy helping of awesome. Some of you will continue to be turned off by the graphical style. A few of you will make tired jokes about power levels. One of you will type "first" as your comment. It will be deleted. What are we talking about? We aren't sure because our minds were melted by what will probably be the best-looking and has been the most promising DBZ title to date. Enjoy!

Face it: you can't get enough of the adventures of Goku, Gohan, and the rest of the inferior cast of DragonBall Z. Thus why a lot of work has been put into DragonBall Z: Burst Limit to make it the most like watching the series in HD motion. The game's co-producer over at Namco Bandai, Yasu Nishimura, answered a few of IGN's questions about the game and we'll outline them below.

The story arc (from Saiyan to Cell) is important to the development team and have prepared famous cutscenes to be presented in new ways that'll please DBZ fans. Not just that, but based on your progress, you can see new scenes or events that aren't from the canonical timeline (titled "What If..." events). Expect the usual list of moves, including vanishing skills to appear behind opponents, super, special, and transforming attacks. Balancing seemed tricky, but they decided to use a character's relative size to increase or decrease speed of attacks as well as similarly sized characters getting unique move rosters. The game is due out in June and will feature online battles! So until then, yell loudly and charge your powers. Worked in the show.

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit is actually shaping up to be a decent looking title. In fact, it's looking rather hot. Fire hot. It's definitely the best looking DBZ game thus far. The HD cel-shading looks fantastic. Burst Limit also probably has the closest resemblance to the actual anime than any other DBZ game. The blur effect and energy particle details are nice touches as well, and are especially befitting for the hyper-fast, energy-blast-filled world of DBZ.
