I expected more of this game. Can't even compare to previous DBZ games.

The previous Dragonball Z games were awesome. You had lots of characters from all of the sagas and the special moves were same as they were in the game. However, in DBZ Burst Limit, you are reduced to playing only into the Cell Saga, and the characters are HIGHLY limited. I mean, where the heck are the main guys from Freiza Saga? You only get 3 guys from the whole Freiza Saga and those are Recoome, Captain Ginyu and Freiza himself. What happened to the rest of the Ginyu force and Freizas personal bodyguards? Not to mention they skipped Garlic Junior Saga all together and in the end, you only get 23 characters, and some of the characters aren't even that good. You do get 2 movie characters, which is actually very few considering that in time of the Cell Games Saga, there were about 6 or 7 movies made. The special moves are well done and the graphics are beautiful, but that doesn't mean it's a great game. It misses so much of the original DBZ style and a LOT of the characters that were available in the previous games. don't mind it being only able to go to Cell Games Saga, but seriously, atleast add all the characters up to that point. 23 characters from the all of the sagas till Cell Games is really low. Anyone who was seen the series or played the last Budokai Tenkaichi knows that there are TONS of more characters available in that timeline.

In the end, Burst Limit to me was a disappointment. The AI in normal or lower always decides to block, whatever you do and when you up the challenge a little to Hard or Very Hard, you are very likely to get your ass kicked in the first 30 seconds and in the Z difficulty, you don't even stand a chance against the computer. Rent it, don't buy it. Not worth spending 70$ on.
