Bland, but good first try at the genre or 3D fighting (Sagas sucked too much to be qualified...)

It is true that this is DBZ's first (real) attempt at the 3D fighter (again, Sagas sucked too much to count). And, for a first attempt, it wasn't bad. But, like all games, it was lacking. Some of the larger problems I witnessed were the fact that the melee was terrible. Tap the square button and add the occasional button hold or a different button for some half-decent effects. The fact that there were no ingame transformations was just pathetic as anything. The graphics were decent, but could have been better. The sound was rather well done, so no problems there. the value of the game is decent. But the gameplay gets boring, fast. Mainly because the repitition and the overpowered characters crushing the weaker ones. But hey, I'll give you some credit guys, it was a pretty good first try. Plus, DBZ:TKI 2 fixes quitte a few of these problems, anyways.
