Dragon Ball Origins

I got that game recently and so far from what I've played; this has got to be the best Dragon Ball game I've played since the Legacy of Goku series and Supersonic Warriors on GBA.

Touch screen controls are very well done (on par to Zelda PH), visuals are stunning and perhaps better then most DS games. Story is well, the story of Dragon Ball which is already amazing.

I've made a few searches on the net about that game to see how many fans there are actually and all I got were poor results. Seriously did anybody here play this thing? Or did you even notice that it exists?

Don't be turned off because of the past pretty bad DBZ games, this one was actually made by hardworking developers who made a heck of a job. The only problem I've encountered in the game so far is the framerate drop when there's too much ennemies on screen but that doesn't happen very frequently and it doesn't last more then 2-3 secs.

If anybody played it what was your experience like?

i noticed it when they had pre-release updates and all that, but i never heard anything too great about it. every one said it was just another average game in the series and that some of the controls (i forget what they said specificly) didn't repsond reliably enough and stuff like that.

Well controls have been fine with me so far. I don't know where they would have got that from.

I have it and it's a very good Dragonball game, great visuals superb gameplay and the cutscenes are pretty awesome. It went under most peoples radar since Atari didn't market or advertise the game very well, but its a great game that I think was executed better than Zelda Phantom Hourglass IMO and more people should give it a try.

Dragon qhat?

Jokes aside, for some reason Dragon Ball never made a great standing presentantion when it comes to games. Past experiences over the yars taught me to avoid any DBZ game like a lot of people.

I don't really know why is that. Peharps because DBZ games usually have clunky controls and does not have the same feeling of the anime/manga..

The anime wasn't just mindless action either. The characters had great personalities that the games cannot recreate.

I rented it and liked it a lot. It reminded me of The Legacy of Goku 2 for GBA. I hope they make a 3rd one for the DS that plays like DB:O...

Yeah, I have it and I'm not too far into it. I'm on the bit where you're in the desert and you're fighting Yamcha. Anyway, I thought the game was good albeit a bit bland. The random framerate drops (seriously, sometimes NOTHING happens and they drop) and the occasionally unresponsive controls were a bit annoying but it's a good game. The combat gameplay CAN be a bit boring.

Sadly, as good as this game is, I didnt like DB, and woulda preferred DBZ games. Sure its amazing, but I will not play it due to lack of transformations and Cell.Maybe Im stubborn, but I think since its DB, makes it underrated.

I know about it, but didn't buy it (yet). It is in the recommendations sticky, so it didn't go un-noticed or anything.

Never liked DBZ, but this game looks okay.
