    Dragon Ball: Raging Blast is the latest button masher from Namco Bandai. It features a lengthy story mode and excellent mini game modes for both Dragon Ball Z fans and gamers. Read more

    It seems that the Dragon Ball franchise is the perfect one to release annual games and with the latest offering one feels that this is a cash in on the name. Read more

    • Pretty good presentation, A good try at something unique, Story mode offers pretty good depth
    • Poor camera and controls, Everything is too over the top, Combat is pretty shallow, Does not offer enough to be considered value for money

    1 December 2009

    Overall, this game does have a few problems, and a handful of them are more than just minor ones, but they do not inhibit your ability to enjoy the game. Read more

    • Great character models and graphics, online play is solid and lag free.
    • Amount of characters compared to previous Tenkaichi games, environments look bland & only a few.

    Dragon Ball: Raging Blast is the first video game in the Budokai Tenkaichi series to come to PS3/X360 and features stunning HD graphics and audio, destructible environments and enhanced character features, Dragon Ball: Raging Read more

    something that held the promise beyond the spiky blonde hair. Stupid box art. The opening cinematics are well done. You can tell the game has polish. The modes are plenty and the more you dig, the more you’ll find. Read more

    Dragon Ball fans, I have been with you every step of the way. I was there when the disappointing Dragon Ball Z: Sagas was released on the original Xbox and I was there when Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi made me realize... Read more

    Raging Blast offers full customization of controls, but I found the default scheme to work fine. Players move with the left stick, use their Super Attacks by pressing in the four cardinal directions on the right stick, dash... Read more

    4 January 2010

    This has to be the loudest game on Xbox 360 by far. It's not even a contest. The bombastic explosions of Gears of War and Call of Duty are reduced to library levels by tiny anime men with strange hair, who yell "KAMEHAMEHA!"... Read more

    • Easy to get into, Looks very nice, Absolutely crammed with content
    • Very shallow button basher, Niche appeal

    24 November 2009

    The huge assortment of characters, stories, costumes, and other aspects of Dragon Ball lore cannot hide how shallow and uninspired the fighting mechanics are. Read more

    • Visuals capture the look and feel of the series, Accessible controls, Rich assortment of stories and modes.
    • Fighting system lacks depth and nuance, Characters all feel the same, Camera can easily lose sight of your opponent, Online is plagued by spoilsport disconnections.

    the game is great, the only thing that isnt that great is the gameplay. it does get repetitive, but it is still fun. the story features the Saiyan Saga, Frieza Saga, Bardock Saga, Android Saga (Cell Games is included), Majin... Read more

    While overall it was a slightly okay game, I felt that the controls were terrible, and the graphics were horribly outdated. I usually don't complain about a game's graphics, but they were the exact same as Tenkaichi for the... Read more
