My friend was a big DBZ fan, back in the day, and he introduced me to the series. We played this game, and he thought the Japanese voices were gibberish.
1:01:24 I love how Ryô Horikawa's voice cracks here. It's Vegeta at his lowest and most vulnerable. I'd argue his performance here was even better than in the anime.
this is "abridged" dragon ball done right, great music, solid and straightforward fighting and skills system, for the time very good 3d models spruced with lots of good 2d art in Hud and menus
This was a bomb ass edit and video all together! Thank you for the dedication to making this happen. I've played the Japanese version of the game on PS2.
This game was actually my very first foray into Dragon Ball Z after the Frieza saga. I'd only watched from the beginning up to the "Goku's Alive!!" episode but then for personal reasons I wasn't able to watch the series anymore, even though I really wanted to after I'd heard rumours about Frieza returning part-machine, his father, Trunks and the androids. Budokai 2 was also the first time I ever came across Majin Buu. Eventually I was able to watch the rest of the anime, from Garlic Jr. to Uub, as well as GT, Dragon Ball, Kai and Super, along with all of the movies and TV specials.
The best version of it, best quality for everything, original voices, scenes, great music, fun fights Le meileur en 2002, Toujours le meilleur en 2022 !
1:07:17 I've always liked the way Goku transforms in Supa Saiyajin, not exploding or screaming like Gohan and others(which still looks cool), but in a very calmer way like if something just let go deep inside of him, and he knows it's over for Frieza, ending up with that bloodlook Ginyu was talking about earlier. Looks so much more badass this way.
@@firestrikeriii5043 well toriyama himself described goku‘s transformation not really as a big power but rather that he simply snaps it is more faithful towards the manga in that way so its more about preference really
I played this game in like 2004 or something. I loved the story mode in this game. These cutscenes, the music.. omg. Newer DBZ games struggle to hit us like that. Hope Budokai Tenkaichi 4 fixes that problem!
1. Nemek/Freiza (The best arc that Toriyama made) 2. Saiyan (Toriyama's amazing chapter) 3. Cyborg/Cell (Toriyama's worst to best decisions he ever made) 4. Majin (Something that we *DON'T* want to talk about)
You made a great Job with this Video. And I appreciate the effort to use a variety of Attacks instead of always spam the same attacks (which would be way more easy to beat the Game, because some attacks are not that easy to pull off with the Button Inputs). Also, the final battle with Freezer was dangerously close. I loved this Game as a Kid and you did a great Job to present it.
Just to clarify, this game in the video is the European release which has Japanese dub with English Subtitles, whereas the North American release has English dub and sub only.
This First PS2 game of DBZ were mind blowing the cut scenes the voice acting all perfect. I was so dissapointed with budokai 2. Man I played it so much. It was ahead of its time.
Original Japanese Version: •DBZ Budokai 1 (Original Japanese Voices and Text) •Time Crisis II (English Voices with Original Japanese Subtitles) European Version: •DBZ Budokai 1 (Original Japanese Audio with English Subtitles) •Time Crisis II (Subtitles Off) American Version: •DBZ Budokai 1 (English Dubbed) •Time Crisis II (Subtitles On)
They never made a DBZ story mode this good since then... ^^ Maybe Shin Budokai on PS3, it's the same thing but in HD generation. Never played it myself though.
@@Levi-hd5db They had to yamamoto had been fired a year before it came out. He got caught infringing off of other artist during Kai's run. If they hadn't replaced the music there would've been legal ramifications
I remember getting this game as a kid, when I was at the height of my DBZ/anime-phase. Being able to play as Goku and the others, using their specials, going super-saiyan during battle, see all the familiar scenes in 3D, it was the best game ever back then. The fact that my version also had the japanese voice too was just extra awesome for little weeb-me. The only thing I disliked were the long loading-screens :/
Man the GameCube shading is so much superior, we got robbed in the EU with this game. I grew to liked the original Japanese dub, but the shading on characters was so bad lol
@@GafurAjredinovskiTheGamer perhaps a problem of emulation.. normally in the GameCube version the shadow on the floor are suppose to be visible at any time and not just at little shorts time.

His emulator looks like it can't render the characters' ground shadows, though, which was one of the coolest graphical improvements of the GameCube version imo. The characters would cast actual shadows rather than just dark circles under their feet like the PS2!

kind of a necropost, but get the European release, since the American only has the English dub and dubtitles while the European has the Japanese voices and English subs.
I think some of it may be too literal without realizing the different types of rules and exceptions of the language, like the subs at 1:19:32, it makes no sense to end a sentence that way but I believe the words technically match to an extent?
@GodZpeed X7 in Japanese but not translated to english lol "We, the Saiyans are..." What. Talking about the subtitles not the voices or language, I usually prefer sub in DBZ
On that time, scenes and voices acting in DBZ games were made of so *high quality* work...
The musics too!
the voice acting stills great now days!
@@thegoldexperience2512 yes but the original DBZ voice actors who are still alive are showing their age
My love for this game is unfathomable! the cutscenes, the gameplay, the music! it was all so fantastic and badass!
Fr like no other Dbz game can match the cutscenes or themes.
No

100% !
AMAZING! GameCube ver., too! NOSTALGIC AF
c'est incroyable car à ce jour, c'est peut etre encore un des meilleurs DBZ
you fukin legend, my childhood, has retuned
This game was the peak of the Japanese voice actors.
Somehow this game still has the best cutscenes for a DBZ game…not sure why the others were never able to quite measure up to this one
Still to this day
Kakarot and tenkaichi 4 can match it tho

Just the gamecube version
More realistic too
Best campaign in any dragon ball game

It was the same on PS2 ^^
