You no longer have to worry about flying around the level, hiding behind the environments and all of the things you've come to expect from a Dragon Ball Z. When it comes down to it you have very little control over where you go and what you do in a fight. Oh sure, the camera likes to swoop all around these two combatants, but that's just for show. Unfortunately, Ultimate Tenkaichi throws all of this out the window.ĭespite its beautifully rendered polygonal graphics, this newest Dragon Ball Z game is basically a 2D fighter. The developers would make up for this shortcoming by giving people exciting stages and tons of characters to choose from. You didn't have to worry about learning character specific moves or any of the nonsense found in other fighting games, because in this series everybody controlled exactly the same. The fun of the game is flying around huge environments and wielding almost superhuman special moves. Even hardcore fans of the series will agree that Dragon Ball Z has never been known for its complex fighting mechanics.
