    Hey guys, I just found out that Future Bulma exists as a character, she is never seen in the game at all, so if you're interested check it out! ua-cam.com/video/ZB1wBbuWUYs/v-deo.html
    Here is also an unused model of Saiyan Armor Goku. ua-cam.com/video/oNM0mEv7g3s/v-deo.html

I always wondered about what content was shelved and it’s very interesting that Cui was going to be playable… 🤔 I think back to seeing all the other cutscene only models like Chiaotzu, Burter, Guldo, Jeice, King Cold, and even Frieda’s 2nd-3rd form and always wondered why they were never used as well. Probably time contraints/deadlines but anyway, thanks for making this awesome video!

    Budokai is the first fighting game I remember owning and was my introduction to most of the story in general. For reasons I can't fully explain, it has a style that better represents DBZ unlike any other game that's been out since. The voice actors are fresh and passionate, the music (albeit plagiarized) is on point, the cutscenes are masterfully directed, etc. I could go on and on but anyone who knows played back then and knows games can clearly see they wanted this to be a sort of definitive experience that would spawn a new generation of fans.

    Its like the beta seemed to more heavily based off how the anime used to look in the 90's, the final seems like Yamamoto drew all the portraits they all look cheery and happy which isn't a bad thing but the more grumpy looking Yamcha for example seems to work better for a vintage game that was a classic also I noticed the final everyone looks less grumpy with their eyes I guess they thought a cheery look worked better for this game.

    I'm curious, between all this cut content does there happen to be something about Oozaru Vegeta fight ? I might be alone on this but seeing that part always made me think they had some kind of special stage planned for it instead of just a cutscene...

    • @the_phoenix_mirror
      @the_phoenix_mirror  Рік тому

      I don't remember seeing anything of a planned fight for it in the files. If it was going to happen, then it would've been cut pretty early in development.

    Hey, does Goku beta model also has a happy face texture or not? Because I remember when I was playing as Goku and beat Gohan. Goku's face change serious to happy saying to Gohan that he was doing well. Even when on the intro scene when he's going to face Android 16

      That seems to be from the first budokai tenkaichi. The story mode had three win conditions depending on the way the fight went on the series: just kill the enemy, kill the enemy with a certain technique and survive for 'X' seconds. In the fight against oozaru Vegeta you had to survive for over a minute to pass it. I hated it when I was a kid. Hahaha

    Bro, the intro, the one where you talked about budokai 2 before showing it, has so much wrong with it... like for one, why is Goku shirtless? Why in the part where Gohan is supposed to be an ozaru is he just a giant kid Gohan? Then they replace Bulma with Yamacha, and finally why are the Saibamen posing with the Z-warriors?!

    Shin budokai another road and a import
    Of shin budokai 2 both for the psp .

      Hard question. Flip a coin, if it's heads, you can watch it. If it's tails, you can't watch it until you become a Budokai gamer.
