      That's not enough to elevate a game.😂 Budokai is hardly a real fighting game and Tenkaichi is definitely not one at all, but canceling is not what makes a fighting game have depth. Character individuality, nuance, and OPTIONS does. First of all, the characters literally had all the same moves and inputs, as well as the same animations in Budokai which was cringe, lol. There was no high or low options, no jump-ins, no utility based moves to extend combos, etc. Budokai is sheer mediocrity trying to masquerade as a fighting game and it never qualified, lol. I was playing Street Fighter Alpha 3 heavily around the time Budokai 1 came out and I was laughing at how bad the Budokai games were and only played them because it was Dragon Ball because the gamer in me rebuked them.

    The original DBZ Budokai is the only Dragon Ball game to date that features Cell in his bulky form (I think it's called "weighted" in the game). If anyone remembers, Cell entered that form out of desperation in order to defeat Gohan, and he could in that state. Despite having the power to defeat Gohan, he ran into the same speed issue Trunks did in his "Super" form. Similarly, it's a callback to 100% Max Power Freiza and Super Saiyan Goku.

    If I was to go back to any of these games for any reason, it would be these for each respective game:
    Budokai 1 has the best story mode cutscenes and storytelling in general.
    Budokai 3 is the best of the standard '2D' fighting game styles (although Dragon Rush sucks). Story Mode is OK, but feels pretty cheap outside of the open-world flying segments.
    Tenkaichi 2 has the most expansive story mode coverage, though it's 'cutscenes' are still severely lacking in quality compared to Budokai 1.
    Budokai 3 has the best gameplay of the Tenkaichi series, as well as by far the biggest roster of any of these other games, making it the most replayable, and the most accurate DB battle simulator. It's Story Mode is a neat concept, but is missing far too much content/battles.

    I was annoyed at first when sparking zero was announced since I wanted a budokai type game, (not that i perferred it but it was covered less) my mentality wasif you want a budokai tenkaichi type game you have xenoverse (i know its not the same but its quite similar) but for budokai you would have to go back to burst limit all the way in 08. After seeing the effects that sparking zero has, destruction, explosions, splash effects and others makes me glad it was made. Maybe next year we can get a budokai type game

      I genuinely think that Xenoverse's combat system is effectively DIMPS' take on Tenkaichi, but with Budokai DNA. SS1 and SS2 even keep the exact same 10% and 15% stat boosts AND their respective ki bar requirements. (SS3 is slightly weaker at 20% instead of 25% like it is in most Budokai games, and it only takes 5 bars to transform rather than 6). The only thing the transformations in Xenoverse 2 don't have is ki drain, and you can even add that in yourself via Super Soul in exchange for a stat boost.

    Budokai 2 getting more Ls with its lack of coverage when people talk about Budokai.
    A fun fact about Budokai 2 is it was the first time Trunks had SSJ2. Something they gave him again in Budokai 3 & Infinite World. Of course, this was before he canonically had the form, so i guess you could condider it a what if form.
    You mentioned the What If scenarios with Budokai 1, but Budokai 2 took it to a whole other level.
    Not only did the story have a what if Majin Frieza and Majin Cell in the story mode, but there were what if fusions/absorptions exclusive to only that game. You could play as Super Buu absorbing Vegeta, Tien & Yamcha, Frieza, or Cell. You could also play as a fusion between Goku and Hercule w/ 2 different looks, and you could play as Tiencha. All of those things were only in Budokai 2 minus Tiencha who showed up in Fusions, Heroes, and Dokkan.
    There was also a special version of Budokai 2 that added some special costumes. Cell got his Majin Costume while Frieza got his Majin Costume, a Cooler Costume, and a costume based on his Son, Kurieza.
    A cool little tid bit about Budokai 1 was that it was one of the only games to have Power Weighted Cell as a playable form. Only issue was for some reason the form looked correct in the Story Mode fight, but if you used the form yourself in VS mode, it was just regular Perfect Cell's model.

      I could play budokai 2 and tenkaichi 2 but I don't think it would have changed my opinion. Main reason I skipped the second games is because you usually see most updates in the middle game in the last game and also time. Playing through a whole game were most of the changes are on the last game as well feels like a loss in time, especially when I do this after my 9-5 job. Would take me much longer and diminish in quality if i had to juggle more games per video. I could play 2-4 hours of each game and just talk about slight differences but can't say I wrote a fair review of the games.
