It is sad, but Akira Toriyama pointed out that Goku was what everyone wanted at the time of the manga.

@@Morokiin yea I get it..

@@thomasbrooksjr380 Alright, careful, you're hitting nerves bringing up Midoriya and Allmight lol. I feel you though, don't get me wrong, Gohan was so awesome and as early as the Saiyan saga they hinted at Gohan's untapped potential. Sadly, it only ever topped out with the Father-Son Kamehameha, which was sick. I remember my friends and I.. maybe 6th grade geeking out when it first aired on Toonami. Even Vegeta mentions in the Buu saga that Gohan was stronger when he fought Cell. I know we get his Mystic form which is badass too, and as cool as Vegeto is, as a kid, I really thought we were going to see a Father/Son fusion which would have been epic. Gohan deserved to be on Kefla status, but sadly, he seems on par with Piccolo these days... honestly, they both deserve top tier.
Gohan's character doesn't really work as well as Goku's for the series because he's a reactive character whereas Goku has a flat chracter arc so he doesn't reach an end of his arc. Gohan reached the end of his positive change arc at the end of the cell saga
@@abramwalker882 it's only a remaster no remake remaster is more like reimaging a game, where a remaster only touches the graphics and keep everything else the same
I remember playing this game at the house of a friend, we were almost 8 or 9 people around the TV, playing tournaments, having fun. Its 2019 now, and i still think this fighting game is much better than all xenoverse, or fighterz. I want a Remaster, not a remake, this game is god like it is, just improve a bit the graphics and voila, new most sale in generation.
I got this game by accident, I went to actually buy budokai 2 and when I got home the budokai 3 disk was inside. One of the best games I’ve ever played. Teen Gohan was a monster
To get SSJ4 You must kill Kid Boo with the Super Spirit Bomb, that will make the story continue and you'll be able to go fight Uub, go to the southern islands before doing this, and a cutscenes will appear, unlocking Ssj4
Esteban Gutierrez I remember being like 7 or 8, can’t remember exactly but I was definitely younger than 10. Picture a fat kid running to the school library to use the computer. Broke asf family, no internet or PC at home. My only concern for the day was to search up how to unlock SSJ4 on IGN strategy website. Your instructions are just how in remembered they were on that website all those years ago. I made sure to print multiple copies and stash them away safely at home. Booted up my PS2 and got to work. Nothing compares to the satisfaction that I felt when I finally unlocked Goku and Vegeta SSJ4, along with Gogeta SSJ4. I felt like I had accomplished something incredible. Fast forward many years. Now I am 25. I’ve experienced a lot in life so far including losing weight from hitting gym, exploring and venturing out, meeting many people, trying different drugs and smashing hoes from different nations. But..still. Nothing compares. None of that was shit compared to the happiness of unlocking that sweet SSJ4 capsule. Back when I was a lame fat kid and the girls didn’t care for me. This game did care. Damn bruh your comment got me emotional.
The amount of hours I’ve spent in pvp matches on this is ridiculous, and in all the games I have ever played this is the one the I was the most competitive about, Even when my hands hands had blistered, or when the plastic part under the rubber thing on the left analog stick had split in half cutting my palm during one of those power struggle things with the Kamehameha wave I just kept going, and just pushed through the agony, eventually I had reached a level of skill no human or com could compete with. Dodging, Teleporting, Blocking Counters and Grapples all became hardwired into muscle memory and even now after playing it at the highest difficulty after 6 years hiatus is still can’t be touched and those combos are locked in like gta San Andreas cheats
MikeM16 The new game from e3 looks pretty great too. I hope it's as as good as it looks. Might be a return to more arcade-like fighters, similar to Budokai.
Cuz tbh I didn’t like tenkaichi cuz like don’t travel anywhere in tenkaichi u just follow the story, but in dbz u can upgrade ur character in story mode which makes it more fun
mrblackbeard18 It had something to do with the copyright. I recall the composer for the game's original soundtrack coming under fire for plagiarism. They were pretty much forced to change the music to avoid another situation. it's disappointing, I prefered the originals music myself.
i remember this game from my cousin's PS2. You won't believe that i hated Dragon ball z so much that i changed the channel when dragon ball aired. but when my i went to my cousin's house and played it with him, i couldn't understand a bunch of things like why goten and trunks split after some time then my cousin said "Start watching DB". And now i dont think my cousin really is a fan but he made me one crazy one. And now i play Xenoverse 2
I agree completely. There are destructable environments, based on the particular stage, but larger maps with the 2D perspective and a 3D map would be awesome.
Dragon Ball Androids Movie - Goku absorbs a spirit bomb and just gets a strenght modifier Dragon Ball Super - Goku absorbs a spirit bomb and gets Ultra Instinct I mean it does make sense, Goku is stronger in Super now.
Johny sparta HJO Haha. I'd definitely play it again were they to do that, but considering its already been ported from ps2 to xbox 360 and ps3, it seems unlikely we'll get another remake.

One of the best DBZ games ever created! It touched every base with regard to what die-hard fans want from a DBZ game.
Anyone else remember tearing their analog sticks to see how many saibamen you could grow??
The father-son kamehameha is what it feels like when you’re dad takes your side in an argument.
Really miss the aspect of powering up and transforming mid-battle.
That’s exactly why I don’t like each sayan level being a separate character
ps2 have the best dbz games

i lie the fusion option in that one xD why why they cant make games like this on new generasion :(

you press any button X or anything and time it right by pressing it when your bar fills up completely

I mean he also did it in the movie with Android 13.

uwu but the movies arent canon??

Wish xenoverse had all the transformations like this..

@@treemane0 same. Super runied everything
Kinda tbh

The 10x kamehameha does rediculous damage wtf
I know, it's ridiculous. Any of the GT character forms are obscenely overpowered.
Morokiin makes sense I guess. GT characters are the strongest available except for fusions.
Try 100x Big Bang Kamehameha. That attack can instantly KO anyone with 7 full health bars. It's just absurd.
cameraREDeye yet it's a challenge to pull off
That's why you should fear it and not give the opponent a chance to power up.
i miss these so much, they really were great. i do miss the blast battles and the fusions.
Great Budokai 3. I want a nex version like Budokai super 😍
Breh that final shine attack takes down HELLA HEALTH LMAOO deadass feels like an ultimate transformation

It’s bugging me so much that you’re not carrying on the dragon fist combo with goku 😂
Or using the transformations to break defense and start a combo :’(

You got me. It was ages before I realized the timing for it, haha.
@@Morokiin 😂 I don't know if I ever got the timing, i think i just mashed a bunch and it worked

Morokiin oh really? whats the name of the new dbz game? i havent really kept up with gaming news because of work and life in general

Dragonball Z Fighters
Why did they make Budokai HD over Tenkaichi HD?
Likely because budokai has a larger fan base and an arguably more sophisticated (elaborate) combat system

Cuz tbh I didn’t like tenkaichi cuz like don’t travel anywhere in tenkaichi u just follow the story, but in dbz u can upgrade ur character in story mode which makes it more fun
Becuase the Budokai series is better.
