User Rating: 8.4 | Dragon Ball Z: Bukuu Ressen DS
Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2 is a great fighter for the DS. Players can play through three different one player modes, and a vs. mode via WiFi. The story mode is one of the three one player modes. This is a great mode where you can select a charatcer like Goku, or Freeza, and go through their story in the DBZ saga. And some are what if scenerios. Like if Dr. Gero didn't get killed by the Androids something different could of happened. Also, if you complete a certain level in a certain way, you can unlock a secret level for that characters. These secret levels are the key to unlocking moves, characters, and double teams. There's also a standard mode where you go through a bunch of computer controlled opponents. And the last one player mode is a mode where you go through many opponents, all grouped in a certain way. (example: Mecha Freeza, and Metal Cooler, or Trunks, and Gotenks) There are three different difficulties to go through, each being unlocked after completing the difficulty before it. This can unlock a few characters, gives a huge challenge on level 3 difficulty, and gives you SP points. Now on to the fighting portion of the reveiw. The fighting is definitly one of the best for any DBZ game. Players can choose up to three characters, or two characters, and a support character. Each character has a certain number of points. You have seven points to start with. Each character's points is subtracted from your points. You cannot exceed your starting points. Characters then battle it out in teams. They can select a different character to step into the fight by using the stylus to touch their portrait. Characters can use moves that drain their energy. Character's moves depend on where you are. If you're above you opponent, you use a different move. If your next to them, and different move. Characters also have specials that they can only use once per match when their health is red, and they have a full bar of energy. These moves take alot of damage. More then half of your opponent's health. Along with those moves, characters can also do double team moves with certain partners. For example: Goku, and Gohan can do a double team, but Goku, and Dr. Gero can't. You can use a double team move whenever you have a full bar of energy. Some characters also have a triple team move. Goku, Piccolo, and Vegeta for example, can all step in to do alot of damage. And a cool scene. In short, this game is a solid game, with great game modes, and great gameplay.
