Dragon ball z: Budkoi tenkaichi 4 (Review)

by Gaming Adicts

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4, also known as Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! when it was first released in Japan. OMEGA is a video game that can be played on the Xbox One, PS4, PS3, Xbox 360, and PS2 consoles. It will have the model of Budokai Tenkaichi 3, although with high-definition graphics. It will have the gameplay of Budokai Tenkaichi 2, the fast pace action and the same original Tenkaichi cut scenes. It will feature an extensive roster just like bt3, but an even more significant amount of z characters. It will have a fun, exciting story mode and it will feel like your are actually in the game. 

Extra Characters

Although Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3’s roster of playable characters is impressive, I feel that a few more names from the source material should be included. Everyone from the previous Budokai Tenkaichi games plus The Spice Boys, Goten(teen), Goten(GT), Trunks(GT), Kibito, Hatchiyack(from Dragon Ball Z: Side Story: Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans), Super Saiyan Bardock(from Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock), Shadow Dragons, and Bills is required for the fourth game.

Quest Mode

I thought DragonBall Raging Blast 2 was fantastic, but for the lack of a narrative mode, and I think DragonBall Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 could benefit from a galaxy mode, which they could rebrand as quest mode. After completing the main Story Mode, players can use the Quest Mode as a sort of supplemental Story Mode. We have some suggestions for the quest system:

Character Narrative Mode

In Character Narrative Mode, the player can experience the life story of any character they have unlocked up to that point. The player’s character levels up in the quest mode as they progress through the game’s story mode, which unlocks new levels as the player completes them. The experience gained from quests only applies to the character in quest mode. Everywhere else in the game, the characters act normally.

Tournament Mode

To participate in the tournament, a player’s character must be in quest mode. The player selects a playable character from the Quest Mode roster before competing in a tournament. If a player has a level 7 character and enters this mode, and that character wins the tournament, the player’s character’s level can increase to 10, 11, or even 12 (depending on their Exp. Points and Z Exp. Points) depending on the player’s total Exp. Points and Z Exp. Points.

Training Mode

Third, the training mode is where the user selects a character from the quest mode and engages in a fight with an AI opponent. This mode can be used to test out characters’ abilities or to level them up after completing a mission. After completing this mode, the player’s character will level up regardless of the outcome of the combat (s). Just by training, a character can advance from level 7 to 11, 12, or even 13 depending on their Exp. Points and Z Exp.

Hero Mode 2

Budokai Tenkaichi 4’s “Hero Mode 2” is a unique mode that presents a completely new Dragon Ball Z story to the player. In 2013, Namco Bandai Games announced that they would be including a “Complete Character Creation & Customization” option. Each “Character Creation System” (which will be detailed in the following sheets) is specific to a certain race.

The characters’ appearances (faces and bodies) are a combination of those seen in the manga and films, as well as those seen in Dragon Ball Heroes and Dragon Ball Online, and several brand-new characters.

Verdict

The PlayStation 2 period was a boon for Dragon Ball fans because the games were a great way to relive the story. Fans, however, have gone on to other games because of their superior gameplay and visuals. However, not all fans are willing to let the Budokai Tenkaichi series die. The Latin American community, for example, continues to create new content for the games and even mods the existing ones to the point where they might be deemed a sequel.

Mods for the series have been created by fans like Kinnikuchu since 2006, and their site now hosts over 250 playable characters and stages. However, the Budokai Tenkaichi 4 crew intends to make all of their changes to the game seriously, thus you won’t find any comedy characters or fan canon in their version of the game.

Team members set out to bring the game up to date by incorporating new content, such as unique combat and cutscenes with voice acting from the anime.

As of right now, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 4 covers everything that happened in Dragon Ball Super up until the end of the Dragon Ball: Super Hero movie. The game is presently playable on PS2 emulators, PS2 hardware, PS3 and PS4 consoles running modified firmware, and PC.
