Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi
Another year, another Dragon Ball Z game. The anime have been out for some time now, nevertheless Namco Bandai still somehow finds a method to milk make money from fans with continuous releases of fighting games. No problem with this, nevertheless the point of successive games is hoping to boost upon a final model. But yet, Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi ceases to implement it. Even from an anime standpoint, I can’t see myself fully grasping the way Super Saiyans knock the other person around here. Like previous games, the fighting is really a jumbled mess that teeters between button-mashing combos that would make Tekken jealous and quick time events that actually make Battlefield 3’s seem somewhat sane. As the fighting character of (that may be practically anyone from your DBZ universe), you enter a fight which enable it to assume opponents one of two ways. Either you'll be able to buck someone in close range combat and chain together super attacks, or go at it at a distance, flinging fireballs and occasionally charging directly into strike up close. Both feature offensive and defensive tactics, however it releates to showing up in right button on the right time.
That’s fine and many types of, given that there’s getting some sort of diversity to maintain mundane feelings from establishing. And here’s where Ultimate Tenkaichi ultimately fails. You’re just about stuck doing exactly the same thing repeatedly, first striking in close proximity (on the floor, rising, underwater, wherever) then going well away, then closing in again and running with the numbers. This never really changes, not really when larger enemies appear. They take your damage, you dodge their attacks, they take much more of your damage, etc. If there are something guide for this game, save for character descriptions, it’d probably be five pages long. Part of an excellent fighting game is possessing a strategy which will weaken the opponent, while adding just a little flair ahead permanently measure. And since how Ultimate Tenkaichi is a lot more about style than substance, that feeling never matures, and so, the sensation of fighting against a combatant fades, plus it just becomes a contest of “who are able to hit the button the quickest”. It’s tiresome and mundane unless, obviously, you’re an anime fan that doesn’t give a damn how Vegeta and Goku duke against each other, as long as they do.
That’s a shame, because with each new game, Namco Bandai actually looks like it's improving from the visual department. Ultimate Tenkaichi appears to be a full time income, breathing anime, that includes fast-moving characters, dynamic camera views, beautiful environments and trendy menus that appear to be like something you’d find in any DBZ DVD compilation. It runs at the fairly blazing speed too, even when you’re taking someone out online (while you find a rival, that is). As for the audio, you’re essentially tied to voice samples from your original cast (just like not too long ago), along with cheesy rock transitions normally reserved for Dynasty Warriors games and repetitive sound effects. Ultimate Tenkaichi does have a selection of modes, however they basically relate with doing the same thing you’re doing in the main Story Mode.
You don't need to make your DBZ franchise shine? Well, confer with your new buddies at Capcom and work on a 2D fighter that in some way brings out their brutal nature, in lieu of driving them to jet around in great amounts in the wide-open 3D world. The battles could be more epic, and now we wouldn’t need to panic about crappily hovering to acquire things done. Ponder over it. Hey, it’s earning a living for StreetFighter x Tekken, isn’t it? For the reason that very last thing we actually should get is Ultimate Tenkaichi 2.
