What's the best Tenkaichi game? Do you think Sparking! Zero will unseat it?
Tenkaichi 3, the definitive dragon ball experience. Playing with friends picking from so many characters from the series and recreating fights, fun times! Now with more crisp graphics, a larger roster and more smooth controls (not using a Wii remote) Sparking Zero can be the best
Tenkaichi 3 is the best for me
3 equals the ultimate beast prior to the Sparking Zero
Tenkaichi 3
Hopefully
you "play" cpu vs cpu to place bets on the fights, its a ton of fun - we had a whole event for a cpu wwe tournament, 10/10
That's actually kind of a fun use case, huh?
Litteraly, love watching Bob lennon's (French content creator/streamer) Torneo de Poder.
It's a Tournament of Power but on a crazy modded BT3. It's really really funny 😂
The precursor for SaltyBets.
@@NiosaiMy Friends and I use it to make a March Madness bracket. We assign characters to teams based on their seed number.
Yes i did this
When I was a kid, I used CPU vs CPU to roleplay like my own tournaments, because I wanted them to be as “fair” and balanced as possible. Cuz if I played vs the CPU, I’d always win. So I wanted to be like “who would win between Gogeta vs Vegito” in the most “realistic” way possible. So it was basically my own little DBZ what if simulator.
I still fire up CPU only matches in modern games from time to time to scratch that old itch when I’m bored. Like I wanna watch some fighting game matches but the comp players only ever pick the top tiers, so maybe I wanna see something different for once.
So what you're saying is that the Hercule v Hercule matchup is an actual use case here 😂
Same you are not crazy not so much now that im grown but yeah
BROOOOO! My brother and I started playing Tenkaichi 3 again and have been talking about doing another CPU vs CPU tournament for old time's sake. We used to create a massive tournament where each "team" drafted a character and then it went on to the next pick, almost like the NFL draft. And then we'd have the teams fight against each other and see who wins the tournament. So you'd end up with like... Hirudegarn, Goku, Cooler, and Kid Trunks vs Super 17, Vegito, Piccolo, and Great Ape Bardock as the final round or something like that. 😂We wrote them out on a Cincinnati Bengals paper pad cube in tony writing and crossed out the losers... oh yeah this is the best DBZ game imo. So fun being mindless losers back in the day. Lets do it again every now and then, yeah? 🤣
Broo who won between Vegito and Gogeta? 😄😄
Totally Accurate Saiyan Simulator
Regarding the COM vs COM fights and who they are for: me and my little brother used to put on COM vs COM battles in the Tenkaichi games and sit back and eat snacks and watch them like they were a TV show or something. We even made our own tournaments and alternate histories where he would pick a fighter and I would make a bracket of fighters for his COM to fight and if he won all I'd own him some candy or we would start with the Raditz saga and let the coms battle and create a random alternate history like this. We of course finished the games as well but yeah, better, simpler and more precious times 😊
That’s damn sweet mate
Yea used to do that with my elder brother too in bt3 lol
Actually, Kenji Yamamoto was NOT responsible for Budokai Tenkaichi 2 and 3. In fact, they grabbed music from those games to replace plagiarized music in the Budokai HD collection and Raging Blast. One name that comes to mind when thinking of these game's composers is Takanori Arima who I'm pretty sure is still working on DB games to this day.
Oh wow, you're right! I think I got my wires crossed with Raging Blast 2, which I distinctly remember getting an update to replace it's music after launch.
@@NiosaiYamamoto also offers the plagiarized music for Dragon Ball Z Kai AKA Dragon Ball Kai during the time of the Vegeta up to the middle of Cell Saga’s climax (Kai Episodes 1 up to 95) while airing in Japan
Was just about to type this.
Yeah, Takanori Arima primarily worked on Tenkaichi 2, while Toshiyuki Kishi worked on Tenkaichi 3, Tag Team and Raging Blast 1. Both composers have been on multiple Dragon Ball games ever since, Including FighterZ
I'm going kkk look k😊okko😊 kk kkkokkkkkokk😊okkkkk😊kokkik@@Niosai
Something to add on in regards to BT3's story mode, there are a lot of hidden What If senarios beyond the What-If Saga if you win or lose specific fights in specific ways. Many people have probably encountered as least one of these but there are a shocking amount of them. You can have Roshi beat Broly if Goku falls and again in GT where Pan takes over when SS4 Goku loses to Baby. You can have Goku beat Majin Vegeta which will cause him to go and beat Dabura. If Majin Vegeta beats Buu, he will go on to fight Babidi. Probably the most bizzare, if you beat King Piccolo without using all the button prompts, Tamborine suddenly comes back to life and then Chichi shows up to kill him.
33:12 To this day I do not understand how any one can look at 3's streamlined, events-mid-battle story and think, "Nah I liked it better in 2 when every Saga was padded out to 30 fights and made me sit through six loading screens per battle."
Has anyone else noticed that both Budokai 3 and Budokai Tenkaichi 3's opening feature Gogeta fighting Broly years before ot would become canon? Talk about prophetic.
I never made that connection, that's pretty neat!
I’m almost certain those cinematics were the seeds that grew into the concept behind DBS: Broly and the overwhelmingly positive fan response. Ever since the days of Budokai Tenkaichi being the peak of DBZ’s zeitgeist in North America (since the show’s run had ended and the last couple of movies were slowly making their way here) people have been salivating over seeing Gogeta vs Broly, the GOATs of DBZ heavy hitters, fighting in an animated form.
For the scripted fights in dragon history mode if you just don't follow the script and win with your own skills or specific characters you get character specific dialogues that you don't see anywhere else after winning with them which is honestly a plus imo.
Raging Blast 1 Tournament mode has a single player vs CPU. just press triangle, it tells you at the bottom and it fills the tournament with random characters.
I think some people from 4chan used to run a tournament for CPU x CPU matches they would stream on twitch.
Way back in the day, they used to do stuff like that on the GameFAQs forums. I would lurk every so often and it was a pretty good time.
@@n.henzler50I used to be heavy in those CPU vs CPU Custom tournaments on GameFaqs. Those were good times and good fun
I was one of them
TomeBazz_SS_Y2k😂😂❤
Right on one time on the bt3 message board I held a midget tournament which was exactly what it sounded like: all the super short fighters competing for strongest midget
2 was definitely my most played one, when I was a kid that’s the only one I had and my god I probably 100% the game 2-3 times, I remember doing all the “what if” scenarios, getting every wish from shenron, unlocking every character and stage…must’ve spent hundreds of hours on this when I was a kid
Edit: I take that back, I actually remember begging my mom to take me to GameStop to get 3 and played the shit out of that one too, it’s probably been like 15 years so kinda got them mixed together in my head
I love CPU vs CPU in fighting games. I use it a lot when I'm tired and don't feel like playing, but still want to watch a match.
Yeah i'm ngl, I always hated BT1. Not being able to transform in-game always really got under my skin, and it instantly made me drop it once finding that out as a kid
never played BT1, but i can see why this would suck ALOT considering transforming mid fight is half the battle.
I remember the day I've played BT1 for the first time. It was at my birthday party, and as far as I remember, the disc actually belong to one of my friends. I think none of us had played the original Budokai prior to that, but we sure as hell played A LOT of Final Bout on PS1 couple years earlier. Me and friends did no other thing at the party but play BT, and holy shit everyone loved. Obviously it became clear after BT2 came out that BT1 was pretty much a prototype, but in 2004? Playing a fighting game like that was really novel and exciting, no one complained. The peak came at BT3, where I inadvertently bought the japanese version (Sparking Meteor) and was BLOWN AWAY to know that it had the original soundtrack of the anime (the Kikuchi score). Not only it made everything 10 times more incredible to play, but the added characters were a dream come true to me. My favorite character to play as in Final Bout was always Kid Goku (GT) Super Saiyan, and they finally added him in BT3. Such cool memories. I really hope Sparking Zero lives up to the hype.
I loved it despite that and I was only 11 but I did wish it wasn't limited. Then when Tenkaichi 2 came out things got really popping
@@JoaoVictor-hn8htwhat do you think of sparking zero so far?
@@mobomba6206 IDK, the gameplay still looks too stiff and more like Xenoverse/Kakarot than BT. Also, the laughable excuse for local MP is... Well, laughable..
On the CPU vs CPU element, there was actually an entire community built around CPU battles called the Dragon Ball Z League for several years. It had the BT3 roster split up into different themed teams and people on those teams got to pick which characters would be in the active roster, the order, and what customization options they had (with point limits) each week for a sports league style season.
It was a great time and ran for years as a live and VOD supported community that even had its own forums and fantasy league system. Great times.
I keep seeing this pointed out and it actually sounds like a lot of fun lmao
DBZ league still exists actually and they still do cpu vs cpu tenkaichi 3
Fun watch! I preferred the Budokai games, but the Tenkaichi/Sparking games grew on me over time. I'm looking forward to Sparking Zero! Rest in peace, Toriyama.
lol it’s literally the otherway around for me. I didn’t see what people saw in Budokai but I’m beginning to like it more
Raging Blast 2 not having a story mode is fine.
I mean it’s not like we haven’t seen it before.
Sure, but I wanted more What-Ifs 😭
Raging Blast 2 is the most underrated game in the series
cried about it!😂
@BabyKobeeee honestly crazy hearing that now. I remember back in 2012-2013ish when I first got the game and started playing it like crazy I remember it was considered the best if not second best. I only heard raging blast 1 was better bc of the what ifs battle which was dope as hell! Ig overall raging blast 2 not having a story kind of hurt it self popularity wise bc ppl like to play something they can follow. In retrospect the galaxy mode is a genius adaptation, but it definitely feels like it a DLC and just kinda re doing battles with a certain mission attached to it wasn't appealing to some ppl. I think it takes a certain die hard dbz fan to understand and truly admire what raging blast 2 was. Everything about it was better in every aspect. It's just the first game was better organized and more appealing to the eye. Raging blast 2s menu was a bet lacking but it did its job.
@@anthonyramirez7586 I thought or Atleast remember people saying Raging Blast 2 was bad when it first came out. Even now it’s a game most people either don’t remember or never mention. I think at that time people were still saying budokai tenkaichi 2 and 3 were the best games in the series.
The CPU vs. CPU comment tickled my funny bone like you have no idea. What led me to this video was Twitch channel point gambling on CPU vs. CPU fights for Tenkaichi 3. It was a grand old time.
The best moment had to be when we had a Human Z-Fighters vs. Broly and a Saibaman. Yamcha was doing WORK on Broly. Broly tags in Saibaman. Saibaman starts schooling Yamcha and Yamcha just TAGS OUT. HE KNEW WHAT WAS COMING. It was great.
CPU VS CPU fights were pretty fun cause sometimes I would witness something like Kid Gohan defeating SSJ Goku which was a real laugh😂😂
Oh man, I’ve been waiting for this one! Today was a bad day, but this made up for it! Thanks, Niosai!
I appreciate that, and I hope your day gets better! :)
On CPU v CPU, there's a fantasy sport league thing for BT3 called DBZ League. It's pretty amusing. Basically custom built characters under specific themed teams duking it out.
I was just binging your Budokai and Tenkaichi videos and then I woke up and got notified about this. Well, here we go!
I promise this one's better than the last Tenkaichi video! I appreciate it haha 😎
Brilliant video! So excited to fire up Tenkaichi 3 again after work
PS2 or Wii 👀
@@NiosaiWii is the best version🤞
OH YEAH! Niosai back at it again! I need to see what the Raging Blast hype was about!
lets goooooooooo! been waiting for this! Get some sleep now!
Dude I love your content! Especially this and the Soul Calibur video. Keep up the good work bud
I appreciate that so much!
14:52 well i actually do love CPU VS CPU mod in old games. i do like watching them, i emulate games on my phone and this mod does help past the time during break at work when i am eating :)
Maybe an unpopular opinion byt Ragung blast 2 is underrated and the roster is so fun. I also love the galaxy mode. After so many games the story mode of DBZ became dull so galaxy mode was appreacited and differnt. I think thats why xenoverse story was so fun. It was a different story.
RB2 is great mechanically! I just wish it had more story stuff 😭
Bro fix your damn comment it has an error in it it’s like these people don’t check what they’re typing!
@@jordandillow2417 No thank you. Have a great day.
I began replaying DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 2 about 6 months ago. Enjoyed every bit of and also felt so nostalgic, I remember as a kid I had to wait for a very long time between loading screens but I was patient enough to do it cause the gameplay was so good. It feels nice to not have to wait that long anymore with how much better tech is today.
I've been waiting for this video, thank you for the good food
Thanks for watching!
Man, I wish the assets for Ultimate Tenkaichi we're used for a better game 😭
Thanks for this nice look back at the series though! Really excited for Sparking Zero. 💙
Ultimate Tenkaichi did so much right! If we just got that presentation but with actually good gameplay, I wonder if we would've gotten more Tenkaichi games after it 😭
@@Niosai I basically 100% Ultimate and unlocked everything.
That game has some of the best customization options, boss battles, visuals, and cutscenes in the entire series.
One of the funny things about that specific game is that every character outside of the strongest characters have only one button they like to press the most and when you figure that out, the game basically just becomes speed run/ movie.
So that game actually became fun for me because I played it like Pokémon and just collected everything, also some of the custom character voice acting options were just funny.
Bro fixed your comment dude it has a error in it
ultimate tenkaichi wasn’t a tenkaichi game bruh it was a raging blast game look at its name in Japan it’s different
Absolutely loved this video man, I played all these games religiously growing up and then when sparking zero came out I went and played all 3 BT stuff again 100% long live dragon ball , Rip to the sensei legend who made my childhood 🧡🖤 akira toriyama.. 🙏🏼
Sparking Zero being BT4 has brought back my childhood. Its been a long time but these hands are ready to train once again.
I'm two months late, but I was one of those CPU vs CPU lovers in the OG Budokai (still my favorite game in the franchise even though it was my only one I ever owned). I honestly loved rushing home from school everyday, hurrying to turn the system on and having my favorite characters battle each other.
It was through the CPU versing mode I realized that every character got unique color changes if they verse the exact same form as the opponent, for example imperfect cell would be the normal green, but the opponent would be a BLUE Imperfect Cell, etc. It added a charm to it that made me smile every time.
I also just sincerely loved hearing the voices as they introduce themselves and I would even do mini "tournaments" with the CPU to see which one was stronger. Imperfect Cell and 1st form Frieza were Goliaths back then and won so many battles.
Yes, I can understand the "What's the point of em" comment, but I just loved watching the CPU's duke it out while I did Homework or considered who i wanted to play as. I never beat the 100 Warrior challenge, but I know I got super far with Videl (top 10 I think). I miss this game so much.
Thank you so much for the Tribute in the middle after the BT Trilogy games of the video
The Goku/Vegeta head nod is infamous.
Me and my friend loved launching CPU vs CPU and made bets who's gonna win.
We used to make bets on CPU v CPU fights.
Awww I know this video was posted like over a week ago and I understand how long this probably took to put together aannnnddd while it's obviously not been an eternity since.. well you know.. Damn.. it just still feels fresh. That mid video break to appreciate the goat got me. R.I.P. Toriyama-Sensei. ❤ And great video brother! ❤
I appreciate it! Yeah, it's actually kind of brutal. I started working on this in January or February after not doing any DBZ projects for an extended period of time. The news came out right smack on the middle of the editing process and I couldn't just release it without some kind of tribute to the GOAT
The best thing about the progression of the og trilogy is that by the time i get to the third one, every character has their own unique moves and fighting style. There may be some exceptions but from what I remember every character played and felt different from anyone else. Love that attention to detail from the devs
From what I recall, Raging Blast 2 just always did in-fight dialogue no matter what mode you were in. As long as the characters in the fight you chose were compatible, they would talk mid-fight. Say you go and play SSJ2 Goku and Majin Vegeta, they'll have special starting dialogue and talk throughout the fight. Didn't need to be in Galaxy Mode, could be in VS.
In tenkaichi 2, and 1 to a lesser degree, my brother and I loved that we didn't have to stay locked on, we made our own adventures in the little maps, it is one of my favorite memories of my childhood
Persona has anime cutscenes as well in their game series and all of them have animated openings and are so cool. It's a JRPG game series and it has good story in each mainline game
BABE WAKE UP, NIOSAI MADE A BUDOKAI TENKAICHI VIDEO!!!!
I deeply miss the sparking/tenkaichi games. I still have my ps2 and games 1-3, but i lost the power cable to the console years ago, im gonna have to get one on Amazon or something to play it again someday.
Tenkaichi Tag Team is honestly super fun. Probably one of the best fighting games on the PSP. Also you don’t have to press only circle. Press the other buttons at the same time as well and it will work better
As a defender of Ultimate tenkaichi I wanted to point some of my own positives
- Hero mode was REALLY fun with how you can customize moves and train with people to learn those moves
- the combat while still being very dull does have a few cool manipulations. For instance Vegeta will favor the green single fist option so most of the time choosing the opposite will win against him. Not ever character works like this but you can manipulate the AI like this in some cases
Took me a while to get around to this video lol but great work dude!!
You can change the direction of a charged attack in tenkaichi 2 by holding the left stick while charging. And you can ( not for all) change the direction by rush attacks ( like a sprint )
when i was little (8-10 year old) I was an EXTREMELY easily scared child so videogames terrified me (if an enemy attacked me in a videogame I felt in danger in real life). But I did love watching my big brother play BT3 so when he wasnt playing I just loved roaming the menus and set up cpu vs cpu fights, imagining the story behind the fight. It was like playing with toys... virtually.
Sometimes I match the com type items with either their respective character or a character I believe would fight as described in the actual show & pit them to see which character gets the most overall wins.
I remember having a lot of fun with the Galaxy mode in RB2. It made me use a lot of characters i otherwise wouldn’t and actually made some underrated characters like Tenshinhan into one of my mains.
Don't know if anyone said it yet but you can battle the AI in Tournaments by pressing Y/Triangle after selecting your character in Raging Blast 1.
My friends and I would do CPU vs CPU battles and do fake bets using monopoly money!
I used the CPU vs CPU battle a lot actually! Sometimes you just want to do something else while watching a fight go down or you and your friends want to pick fighters and place bets it’s fun!
thank you akira, you will remembered for the rest of my life
back in the day me and my friends where heAVY INTO THE SERIES AND WE used to run cpu vs cpu on max difficulty to see certain match ups and see how cpu uses certain chars to get a idea of how to use a character you havent played with yet. me an my couzin would do cpu vs cpu match and watch while we are eating and study the cpu
That funny animation from BT was hilarious to me and my brothers as kids, i thought we were the only ones who made fun of that 😂 glad to know we weren’t alone
I personally loved it lol. It's one of my favourite openings of all time😂
RB2 did not have the BT2 music originally, that's basically a placeholder because of the plagiarism stuff, the original RB2 cinematic song was amazing.
Also, the story dialogue was even in online battles, It's a surprisingly enjoyable feature, you can even see their mouths move in Super cutscenes.
Me and my friend used to love watching cpu battles in between our matches. Since we have different tastes, we'd take bets and root for whatever our favorite characters/sides were.
Especially since I'm a Goku main and he loved to play Vegeta and Frieza.
I only had tenkaichi 1 as a kid and the soundtrack still gets me hype af. Crazy how u can play all of them on emulator now, little kid me would of died from happiness
I wish we got official re-releases of all of them 😭
I thought I was watching a video from a year or two ago so seeing the Akira Toriyama bit was surprising. Great video, good stuff
Thanks a lot! It was actually really deflating when it happened because I'd actually taken a break from making DBZ content and I decided to come back to Tenkaichi because I was so excited for Sparking Zero. A couple of weeks into making this was when the news dropped and it hit especially hard 😔
As for CPU vs CPU fights I think a good example of how fun they can be is watching Alpharad's Smash Bros CPU Tournaments. Dude constructed an entire story with them.
As for my personal experience with Budokai Tenkaichi my introduction to it was my cousin's copy of 2 on his PS2, then a few years later getting 3 for the Wii. My brother and I has previously owned Budokai 2 on the GameCube and rented Budokai 1. We played the hell out of BT3 and had a blast, trading between battles to experience the story. And I distinctly remember my brother being extremely good with Namek Saga SSJ Goku and me maining Arale. A few years later we got Raging Blast 2 for the XBox 360 and had a ton of fun with the "Story" mode and trading off to play individual character modes.
I used to use CPU vs CPU in games like smash bros to decide what characters i wanted to learn, the winner being my main for the next week, and in ultimate I’ve used the 8 player battles of the same character to let the game decide what alternate costume i would use.
However I cant see why you’d do it in this game
I love these Dragon Ball Z games!
There was also Dragon Ball Z Battle of Z that looks a bit similar to the BT games but more arcadey. Never played it though so have no idea if it was actually BT-like. Nice video!
From what I can tell, Battle of Z was going for more of a Gundam VS Arcade-style format. I still plan on covering it and some other "standalone" games at some point!
CPU vs. CPU, also known as COM battles can teach new players how to operate unfamiliar characters effectively, view techniques they might not yet know how to perform, and they can also be great for streaming, if you want to record or commentate over footage. They are like training options.
Give the designers for the UI and menus a raise. They are works of art and are not appreciated enough.
Tenkaichi Tag Team is my favourite. You have 2vs2, great gameplay, nice graphics, no BS characters (seriously, Tenkaichi 3 has way too many fighters), good looking UI and you can play it on PS Vita
In Tekken I customized characters like my friend group and we had them fight each other CPU vs CPU, it was pretty hype and fun, in Dragon ball we did that in Budokai just to place bets on who would win every once in a while, your hands get sore and sweaty after playing for a while during the summer
Just in time for the gameplay presentation in the morning
I respect people who put timing in their videos
CPU vs CPU is kinda fun when you have them on the highest difficulty and just let them go at each other, fun to see who gets the upper hand and wins no matter who it is
Ageless, timeless, what you’ll find is beyond belief… RIP Toriyama San
Aaaaah the colors of this roster makes me cry of happiness... bro... i will cry as soon as i start the game
Just got Budokai Tenkaichi 3 a few weeks ago and I love it!
in Ultimate Battle mode in the original Tenkaichi u forgot to mention that there are "imposters" who break in and challenge you every so often that (i believe) aren't on the list to fight
Sometimes it's fun to just watch the game you enjoy in a fairer fight than one where whatever character you pick to face the cpu will win.. and sometimes you see a strategy pulled off you wouldn't have thought of
1:03:57 I actually GROW UP with ultimate Tenkaichi when I was a kid. I used to watch all the time on RUclips, and I even manage to get a copy of the game. It was really fun, and I had a hell of a good time with it.
sorry bro
I remember watching cpu vs cpu fights on raging blast 2 because I just wanted to watch someone else play or if I was doing something else on the side
14:50 typically I use CPU vs CPU matches too learn how too play characters when making them play on the hardest difficulty but also sometimes I’ll go grab something too eat but I don’t wanna stop playing so I’ll watch these while I’m eating
You forgot to mention the years of the games Niosai so here you go budokai tenkaichi 2005, budokai tenkaichi 2 2006, budokai tenkaichi 3 2007, raging blast 2009 raging blast 2010 dragonball online 2010, ultimate tenkaichi 2011
Mannnn as a recent fan of DB (binged the series last year from the og DB to super, except for gt, kai and anything after super) now i wish I actually got to play some of these games...
Oh, how one can only dream.
Hey you still can! Though, if Sparking Zero is good, that could also be your first entry!
@@Niosai That depends on if it's on a console I even have rn. What consoles will it be on?
@@PureCringe Next gen only and on PC
@@neomachine855 Don't quite know what next gen is but pc I do have. Looking forward to seeing if I can ever cough up the money for this game!
@@PureCringe next gen is the Xbox Series S and X and the PS5, I will say this the Series S is quite cheap and is worth it imo it usually goes on sale for like 240/250 although you only get 512GB compared to the Series X which has 1TB off the bat but there is a black recolored Series S for 350 which has 1TB
you ALSO forgot to mention that you can find the DragonBalls within the stages' destructible environment set-pieces like "buildings, Giant rock formations, ships, trucks, etc."
13:15 damn trunks that was cool
With regards to other games that feature original animation, some of the One Piece fighting games come to mind. The Grand Battle series is notable, and newest one (that didn't release outside japan, sadly) even has an opening song featuring the voice of the main character.
50:50, they don't have them officially, but since it's a 3d model that spins slowly you could just screen record it and throw that over to someone on Fiver with a 3D printer that can convert the recording into a 3d model, print it, and ship it over to you :) Heck if you pay for the higher end services they could probably even polish up the models so they're not as blocky
Plenty of use for CPU v CPU. Friends can pick the combatants and place bets, you can set up your own 'Tenkaichi Budokai', you can take a break to go eat pizza, etc etc
Also Demon King Picollo is OP in BT3 cpu v cpu lol
C'mon now, pitting Yamcha against anyone and seeing if he'll win in a CPU vs CPU is fun
Yamcha vs a lil green guy, who would win?
14:50 i may not have done it in the budokai games, but im 100% the person who watched all CPU smash melee tournaments. in fairness, you can also crank up the insanity with items, but thats sorta the thing. its was so much fun to watch, and my cousins and I would wind down after several matches by kicking back to watch the CPUs go at it
I thing i remember is in BT2 I would roleplay as a kid and HIDE behind buildings in the city…(time to recover for example trunks vs androids/ future Gohan.) so I liked being able to knock and open far away and then run and hide…the cpu would fly around the map usually til they found me but usually I would find them again when I was ready….idk I enjoyed doing that instead of nonstop fighting til the fight is over
I think that makes more sense than Hercule hiding from himself 😂
There’s actually a cpu vs cpu league in bt3 on RUclips called dragonball z league it’s not huge but it’s literally themed teams in a 16 week season with playoffs and everything and you can tell the people that run it have a lot of passion for dragonball and these games, in my heart they’re a huge part of why sparking zero got announced all these years later
I've seen a lot of people mention this, I'm definitely gonna check it out!
There was a streamer some years back that did CPU vs CPU fights and we got to bet channel points on who would win.
CPU vs CPU is fun to watch. Like a sort of neutral "who would win" without player interference
Yeah I've really warmed up to it thanks to all the comments with stories like this!
It's possible to enter tournaments in sparking as a solo player, on Xbox 360 you have to select your character then press Y
as a kid i loved ultimate tenkaichi because of the graphics, artstyle, character creation and giant boss battles…. thats it 😭😭
I was a kid when I played these so what we would do is watch CPUvsCPU fights and make up what if scenarios around the fights and see them play out. Which was not biased by the difference in skill level between me and my friends. It was a story making mode essentially. It also did not take them any extra coding work so they probably just tossed it in cuz why not. I will actually be really sad if it's not in Sparking Zero.
Zenkai battle reminds me of the battle of Z. that game feels like a fever dream...
14:52 I do CPU vs CPU when I livestream this game , I have viewers make a team and we all see who can win the most matches , I guess you can call it King Of The Hill , for example I bring out 3 characters and we watch the fights from my teams point of view until I lose then We watch the fights from the winner’s perspective
I made CPU vs CPU tournaments with my brother. We made teams and had them fight. We actually had some fun with it😁
I loved the Raging blast series, instead of two super attacks and one ultimate you could customise and input four super attacks and ultimates, and all you need was the right analog to pull them off, instead of pressing up,L2 and triangle. Very simple with new cutscene attacks. They added SS3 Broly and Vegeta, Coolers armored squad, Androids 14 and 15, Raging blast had the most beautiful Aura charges, btw you can play single mode on tournament. I liked how you could parry super beams too. You could also customise auras, change the soundtrack if your ps3 has downloaded music you can literally play any kind of music you want on Raging blast while fighting.Raging blast had some cool unique features that no other dbz game has. Raging blast is super underated, Raging blast 3 wouldve had so much potential.
Some people seemed like they didn't enjoy the changed controls but I truly don't see a downside!
