"Can't you tell Freezer? It's just like Vegeta said." "No you f*cking don't!" "I am the hope of the Omniverse! I am the lightbulb in the darkness! I am the bacon in the fridge for all living things to cry out in hunger! I am the alpha and the amega! I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am Son Goku! And I am a SUPER-" *blast!* "Grrrrrrr!" "....*smug ass grin* Saiyan.".
This theme, its tune and its rhythms illustrate perfectly the feelings of despair, resolution and progressive anger ! I think I could play it with my band at a rock concert under the very name of "A hero's desperation" and that it would meet a real success among fans !!!
Game that utilizes original Budokai's cutscene graphics for normal gameplay, with cutscenes either directly from the show or a direct imitation of the show with 3d character models, with a more refined and customizable version of Tenkaichi 2's combat system (Tenkaichi 3 was a douche and wouldn't let you set the shoulder buttons, messed my game up), and a selection of background music from Bruce Faulconer and the original Japanese version = perfect DBZ game.
I LOVE WHEN GOHAN WENT SSJ2 (RAGE MODE) FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEY PLAYED THIS SONG! IVE BEEN LOOKIN FOR THIS FOR ABOUT SINCE I WAS LIKE 4 YEARS OLD OMG THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH I LOVE U THANK YOU FOR THIS!
I find that with most songs in Budokai, the build-up take way too long but once you get there its a sick combination of badass and epic that threatens to blow your brain out from awesomeness.
I don't know why they left this (and many other) songs out of the OST, but ah well. A thousand thank yous are in order, as I couldn't seem to find this song anywhere.
Even to this day i still think this is the best story mode of ANY DBZ game. Covers all of the important fights, has a cutscene before, in between and after a battle, has a epic script and simply covers most ground of the storyline. To this day, after Budokai 1, none other of the Story modes after this were as good. Scrap the flying, the text, the boring fights and the RPG system, BRING BACK THE EPICNESS OF THIS MODE DAMMIT!!
that song makes me feel like i can transform into a saiyan level 2 like gohan. i love it and since i have this incredible game i've always said: THIS GAME AND THIS SONG WILL BE THE BEST DRAGON BALL Z HITS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
This is the most epic music I've heard for a while. This was the music played when I first witnessed the Super Saiyan transformation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's one memory not so easily forgotten
Thanks man! I've been trying to get Rock the Dragon forever. Its not as easy to find streamable downloads of the US soundtracks as you'd think. You're awesome dude!
Haha thanks! Sadly I don't own the game anymore but I'm thinking of getting it again. In the end, it's usually the music that brings me back to those old games from my past. Nice meeting you too.
I loved the old budokai cartoon cutscenes, they were so good to the story, even though the game was short and not many characters it will be my first and favorite dbz of all time! 5/5
Man I've been looking for this music kinda...forever, I actually had lost my hope in finding it, now that I finally found I so happy, I think I'll faint x3
Gohan was great during the Cell Games, he suddenly got everyone's respect...And then lost it about 10 episodes later when he started doing that Great Saiyaman thing...Ugh...But Goku...Just amazing...Just an amazing series...
@Disturbed763 You do realize that if you download RealPlayer you could simply download this clip and then use RealPlayer Converter to convert the video to MP3 format. That feature comes in handy quite often for me.
I know I never got tired of hearing this sometimes I would just leave it right before the final fight between Freiza and Goku for half an hour or more just to listen to it.
@TheTebo1994 You can see it got influenced by it, you can charge all attacks like in the shin budokai games, + they all look kind of the same (the super kamehameha's 'n stuff)
Thanks a lot for your interest ! Unfortunately, that was only a supposition... Due to our respective jobs, we don't have much time to practise our songs and we have other projects... Besides, I am not sure my band's members would like that theme enough to turn it into a rock/metal version... That is only a personal liking... But if I can convince them and find time to do it, I will obviously upload the audio for us all !!! See you soon then, perhaps...
i remember me and my bro staying up for hours trying to beat the cell when he goes op(over powered)...great game...also had some fun times with captin ginyu and switching bodies..
@Flapjizzle69 I meam specifically Dragon Ball Z Budokai, this game, no story mode has ever come as close, this one is near perfection. I like the actual fighting gameplay better in the budokai tenkaichi series, but this game has by far the best story mode
my storys exactly the same as spritekiller95 , im 14 nw too and the first time i ever saw dbz was wen i was 5 and stl luv it as much nw my favourite charater is ultimate gohan and ssj2 teen gohan they rock i srated luving gohan from he cell games and onward but goku will remain in all of our hears forever ....
I'm glad you like it. I've done a drum cover of this song. Look at the video description for a link or just look up A Hero's Desperation Drum Cover and you'll find it.
Why is it that when Cell laughs in the cutscene at 4:53 it makes me laugh? It reminds me of something due to the camera angle but I forgot what it was. Its not Dragonball Z or even Toriyama related either. (sorry if I mispelt his name.)
Man, seeing this and hearing the song.. and thinking about Burst Limit just goes to remind me that, when DIMPS does cutscenes in their game.. they are just the best fucking things ever. Makes me *super* excited to see how epic the cutscenes for Xenoverse end up being!
@kcollins113 Really? I had the special edition Budokai 3, with the mini broly(sp) toy along with the DVD of the voice actors. Yet I honestly don't remember hear this song in it. YA-HA!!!
haha yeh man! Only Legacy of Goku 2 and 3 though. Man i love those games. Its in 8bit though, its not literally the soundtrack put onto the cartidge. But basically the same thing, just in gameboy music style heheheh
2:19 Favorite part of the song.
Mine too.
0:55 -1:15 is just the most awesome part, combined with the song and all that. Brings back memories of the serie.
"Can't you tell Freezer? It's just like Vegeta said."
"No you f*cking don't!"
"I am the hope of the Omniverse! I am the lightbulb in the darkness! I am the bacon in the fridge for all living things to cry out in hunger! I am the alpha and the amega! I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am Son Goku! And I am a SUPER-"
*blast!* "Grrrrrrr!"
"....*smug ass grin* Saiyan.".
Did they put this song in that scene?
@@communityEsc no
It’s “I am the terror that quakes in the night.”
I remember whenever this played, it was always super epic!
The nostalgia comes to me when i hear this song, the best cutscenes of all DBZ games
This theme, its tune and its rhythms illustrate perfectly the feelings of despair, resolution and progressive anger ! I think I could play it with my band at a rock concert under the very name of "A hero's desperation" and that it would meet a real success among fans !!!

this game is what shows what budokai 2 and 3's cutscenes didn't live up to this is the expectation of today's games
And covering the entire series from the beginning of Dragon Ball all the way through Z, GT, the movies and Super.
I LOVE WHEN GOHAN WENT SSJ2 (RAGE MODE) FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEY PLAYED THIS SONG! IVE BEEN LOOKIN FOR THIS FOR ABOUT SINCE I WAS LIKE 4 YEARS OLD OMG THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH I LOVE U THANK YOU FOR THIS!
this game got me into dbz
I find that with most songs in Budokai, the build-up take way too long but once you get there its a sick combination of badass and epic that threatens to blow your brain out from awesomeness.
Good job making the track available for download, it's a classic.
I don't know why they left this (and many other) songs out of the OST, but ah well.
A thousand thank yous are in order, as I couldn't seem to find this song anywhere.

I had been looking for the cell games soundtrack for so long. Thanks so much for the links!
@playoffexpert1 definetly! The other Budokai games haven't got story modes as good as this one.
Thank you! I love you for posting the links in the description, I finally found the song I wanted.
Omg dude this was the best looking dbz game ever! The 360 games still can't touch this 1. Pure classic
that song makes me feel like i can transform into a saiyan level 2 like gohan. i love it and since i have this incredible game i've always said:
THIS GAME AND THIS SONG WILL BE THE BEST DRAGON BALL Z HITS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
2:20 is my favorite part
I remember when this first came out. It was unreal to me... hypest Christmas ever.
The full version is also avalible on the part where you fight nappa just keep to blue menu (the one with skills to do) and just keep listining to it
This is the most epic music I've heard for a while. This was the music played when I first witnessed the Super Saiyan transformation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's one memory not so easily forgotten
Thanks man! I've been trying to get Rock the Dragon forever. Its not as easy to find streamable downloads of the US soundtracks as you'd think. You're awesome dude!
thanks man this bring back a hella lot of memories this was the buffest goku looked as a ssj
Haha thanks! Sadly I don't own the game anymore but I'm thinking of getting it again. In the end, it's usually the music that brings me back to those old games from my past. Nice meeting you too.
The memories i have for this game so much epicness trying to beat cell wish i could go back to those times and be a kid again good times
Ahh i was looking for this for ages.
Its my favourite song on the games!
I loved the old budokai cartoon cutscenes, they were so good to the story, even though the game was short and not many characters it will be my first and favorite dbz of all time!
5/5
Man I've been looking for this music kinda...forever, I actually had lost my hope in finding it, now that I finally found I so happy, I think I'll faint x3
Gohan was great during the Cell Games, he suddenly got everyone's respect...And then lost it about 10 episodes later when he started doing that Great Saiyaman thing...Ugh...But Goku...Just amazing...Just an amazing series...
I've been looking for this epic song forever. Thanks!
I always liked this song, I looked all over youtube for it. Thanks
this game had the best cut scenes in out of every dbz game. Both budokai, tenkaichi, burst limit, raging blast and even the old ps1 games.
I remember that the movie-clips from this game was so awesome. Well done!
i have been looking for this song forever thank you!!!
I've been looking for this song for the longest time...
@Trayxxxx yah its in there you gotta listen and not pay attention to things and you should hear it its like the most played song in that game
Ahhhh. Nostalgic memories. I remember playing this game on my ps2
And listning to this track. I wish my ps2 still worked.
thanks dude this was one of the best tracks in the game
Thank you for this awesome music you rip and for the nostalgia i'm getting with this music
Best song on the soundtrack. Thanks for uploading this!!
Cutscenes from Budokai + Gameplay from Tenkaichi 3 + Graphics from Burst Limit = EPIC DBZ game!
@Disturbed763 You do realize that if you download RealPlayer you could simply download this clip and then use RealPlayer Converter to convert the video to MP3 format. That feature comes in handy quite often for me.
Great job. Been looking for this for a while. Thank you very much!
pwnage means the same thing like ownage only its a favorite word that some people say AND THIS SONG ROCKS! WHOO!
Budokai by far had the best story mode, no other DBZ came has come anywhere near coming close
you're the best! i was looking for this song for far too long. thank you!
so mnay memories just hearing this song/theme brings them back
Ima be playing this song whenever I play xenoverse =)
I know I never got tired of hearing this sometimes I would just leave it right before the final fight between Freiza and Goku for half an hour or more just to listen to it.
truly a work of DBZ art.love it,and its epic.
Nostalgic, I remember Goku turning super saiyan on that potentially exploding planet, and the entire situation period was terrifying to me.
This is the best song out of any Dragonball Z game that has ever existed.
Thank you I have been looking for this song forever!
This song gives me goosebumps!
I love it
THANK YOU! i was looking for this song for soo long tnat i really think i woulnd't find it!
thx for the song this is one of my faves song and this is a old game but i loved it
Amazing song!! This song get's me pumped every time i hear it. Who needs school when you could train and fight villains? :D
this was the first dbz game i ever played. I just picked it up for $1 at gamestop for the nostalgia factor
when it first came out I was so happy that it wasnt another game like final bout!!! so I still love it!
I loved playing this game it was hard to get through it and it was very tense with the cut scenes and gameplay
this sounds awesome, brings back memories
@TheTebo1994 You can see it got influenced by it, you can charge all attacks like in the shin budokai games, + they all look kind of the same (the super kamehameha's 'n stuff)
this song is so amazing
yep this DBZ game was the best and had the best songs best game for me hands down
@redrum427
GC: Hold L and R at the same time (when enough energy)
PS2: Hold L2 and R 2 at the same time (when enough energy)
this game have the all best songs and cutsenes of ALL games of dragon ball z even the most newest
@Oblivionstud666 u can say burst limit really was budokai 4
up to you though
Thanks a lot for your interest ! Unfortunately, that was only a supposition... Due to our respective jobs, we don't have much time to practise our songs and we have other projects...

wow i cant believe i finaly got this some =] after like what how long was it since 1st budokai u are a god =]
Thank you so much!!!!! I love this song!
@DragonFightersFanfic
Probably Budokai 2, I believe Budokai 1 and 2 shared their soundtracks while Budokai 3 had it's own (pretty awesome) soundtrack.
i remember me and my bro staying up for hours trying to beat the cell when he goes op(over powered)...great game...also had some fun times with captin ginyu and switching bodies..
This gives me goosebumps...
I absolutly loved this game!
@Flapjizzle69 I meam specifically Dragon Ball Z Budokai, this game, no story mode has ever come as close, this one is near perfection. I like the actual fighting gameplay better in the budokai tenkaichi series, but this game has by far the best story mode
this was my first DBZ game ever and the best always
my storys exactly the same as spritekiller95 , im 14 nw too and the first time i ever saw dbz was wen i was 5 and stl luv it as much nw my favourite charater is ultimate gohan and ssj2 teen gohan they rock i srated luving gohan from he cell games and onward but goku will remain in all of our hears forever ....
this is my favorite tune of this game
ive never heard a song from a dbz game as epic as this one...
challenger was pretty epic
I'm glad you like it. I've done a drum cover of this song. Look at the video description for a link or just look up A Hero's Desperation Drum Cover and you'll find it.
Budokai 1 had the best cut seens and game modes it was the best of dbz games.
i just love this music.
Thanks for riping it
I remember this song from when i played this as a kid. The european version was just japanese with subtitles
@firestrings20 no the first dragon ball game was technically made 16 years before this one if more
Why is it that when Cell laughs in the cutscene at 4:53 it makes me laugh? It reminds me of something due to the camera angle but I forgot what it was. Its not Dragonball Z or even Toriyama related either. (sorry if I mispelt his name.)
i love this game. they need to use great videos in the chapters with the new graphics for the new games. this games videos were awesome lol
Anyone notice at 3:28 the word "nothing" was misspelled? Doesn't matter though since this was the best dbz game made.
@Trayxxxx this song plays all the time in budokai 3 which is a bit more recent than this game
thanks for the link to the original soundtrack :)
Man, seeing this and hearing the song.. and thinking about Burst Limit just goes to remind me that, when DIMPS does cutscenes in their game.. they are just the best fucking things ever.
Makes me *super* excited to see how epic the cutscenes for Xenoverse end up being!
Don't forget about Gallant :3
don't forget "the legendary super saiyan" and "a quiet but fierce battle."
@kcollins113
Really? I had the special edition Budokai 3, with the mini broly(sp) toy along with the DVD of the voice actors. Yet I honestly don't remember hear this song in it.
YA-HA!!!
this is the song I've been looking for!
haha yeh man!
Only Legacy of Goku 2 and 3 though. Man i love those games. Its in 8bit though, its not literally the soundtrack put onto the cartidge. But basically the same thing, just in gameboy music style heheheh
@EagleMarine2012 I don't know abut that but your right when i comes to the tenkaichi budokai sereies.
Budokai is still my favorite dbz game. glad they remade it, but soundtrack is different. :(
@MegaPie999 keep exiting and entering the shop until a dragon ball is shown in the shop inventory
