Game Overview

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 takes you into new challenges like no other DBZ game before! You'll flex and blast your way through the all-new single player Dragon World that opens the story. Face off against the most lethal DBZ foes, including Buu - in three different forms. Demolish your enemies with incredible Ki attacks -- watch as the levels actually crumble in your wake. Highly detailed cel-shaded graphics make you feel like you're watching the show. You can even battle your friends in the exciting Vs. and Tournament modes.

The Good

New cel-shaded graphics, New gameplay mechanics.

The Bad

Underwhelming single-player game, Lots of recycled sights and sounds, It's year-old port of a mediocre game!.

Begin with an all-new single player "Dragon Mode" that opens the story to new matchups, surprising character appearances and missions that will amaze. You can also battle your friends in multiplayer "VS." and "Tournament" modes. If your will and skill prevail, you will come face-to-face with Buu, the most lethal of all DBZ villains. Do you have what it takes not only to survive, but to dominate?
