If I had a PS2 as a kid, this would be quite possibly be one of my favourite games of all time, and I would have spent countless hours with it. But I didn’t, I only ever got a chance to play this one (all of Budokai and Tenkaichi for that matter) at a friend’s house when I was 11.
So it wasn’t until 2022 that I got to fully play through it on a Retroid Pocket 3+.
And man, it held up pretty nicely and was a joy to play through. I had Raging Blast and Raging Blast 2, and while I loved them, I think graphically this game has them beat. It also has them beat on the richness of content. This is one of the only games that goes through the DB, Z and GT story!
A beloved game by many that I’m sad to have missed, in all honesty, and there isn’t anything big to fault here.
8.5/10, nostalgia probably would’ve bumped this to a 9 or 10.
