Title: Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! NEO
Post by: Hocotate on April 20, 2006, 08:43:52 PM
Bandai announced its first Revolution title - the anime fighting game Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! NEO [Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi NEO], the sequel to the popular PS2 fighting game; the game will have over 100 playable characters.

I'm not sure if this has been posted or not, but I thought at this point any new rev games should have their own thread

Yay! I can't wait. Hopefully it'll have a good story mode and other intresting thing's to tide me over. Budokai 2 was ok, but the single player wasn't as good as the first.

It's nice to see a PS2 exclusive get it's sequel on the rev. And over 100 playable characters to boot! I wonder if this will be a rev exclusive? If the game revolves around the revmote, I doubt a port would work so great.

It'll be on the PS2 as well!? No wonder the screenshot looks so ... not next gen. I wonder if they will actually use the revmote, or just the shell....

The screenshots are actually from the ps2 version, yes.

IGN is saying it'll use the controller's unique pointer features, though of course that could still mean the shell.

It's good to see a developer go ahead and announce a traditional style game on the console regardless of whether it will use the shell or just some alternative control method.

I say, it's about time we got a good DBZ game *SPARKING*. It's funny how all these new games (including Castlevania: PoR) you guys post I have read about them days before english reports start coming out lol, and yes the images are from PS2 as it is said at jeuxfrance from what V-Jump has published.

I just watched 2 videos about this game from gametrailers.com, it looks wicked even though the footage was for PS2, so I imagine that the game for Wii will look fantastic.
The 2nd video was an interview with the game-producer, he stated that the game will be out worldwide by October, if this game is a launch title for Wii then the month for Wii's release has been set.

indeed, hopefully wii get's an exclusive better overall version. If they have Fantasy Fusions "like Tiemcha"etc. I hope they will have on of Goku & Gohan, we could call them Gokan, he could be the stronges of them all. ( take in the fact I'm talking about Mystic Gohan )

Think Hildragen will be in it? along with Janemba.

Or he could have meant that the PS2 version will be out by October and the Wii version will follow sometime thereafter.

OK I am confused now...

Didn't they officially announced the new Dragonball Z Wii game weeks ago? Is this that same game or another DBZ game?

Same game--coming out for the PS2 and Wii.

Indeed, but I like to keep an open mind towards by own good.
