DBZ Battle Of Z New Gameplay Footage and Details

-

August 22, 2013

A new gameplay video has emerged for the upcoming Dragon Ball 8 man team fighter, Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z. The video shows a Super Saiyan Goku fighting Frieza. But unlike former games in the series he’s not alone this time and has Krillin, Gohan and Piccolo to help. Fans of the show will remember Goku turned Super Saiyan as a result of his anger from witnessing his best friend Krillin get blown to pieces by the evil Frieza, so the fact that he’s alive at this point in the story raises some interesting questions. It’s nice to see a game having some fun with it though as long running fans of the series have played through the same sagas many times by now.

Some other pictures have also been found online that reveal some interesting details. The picture below seems to be a mockup of the character select screen and shows us how many fighters we can expect in Battle of Z as well as which ones have been revealed so far. 67 character slots seem reserved for standard fighters and transformations while another 5 are reserved for large characters such as Great Ape Gohan and Great Ape Vegeta. Three of these large characters are still a mystery as are who will take the spots in those strange green boxes. Some confirmed characters such as Majin Buu and Bills, the antagonist from the recent film Battle of Gods, are missing from this select screen. Although this does indeed look like the final character count, this could of course change by the time the game releases.

It was also confirmed recently that you can fully customise the colour of any characters main outfit (which could probably lead to some funny combinations such as Majin Vegeta wearing all pink). However we still haven’t seen signs of actual alternate costumes. These outfits might be apart of the DLC that will release after the game as was confirmed in a panel last month, but it is still unknown what the actual content of the DLC will be.

Let us know what you think about the roster and who are your predictions for those unnamed spots. Don’t forget to watch the all new gameplay footage as well and check out the announcement trailer if you haven’t seen it already. Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z is now expected to launch in early 2014 on the PS3, PS Vita and Xbox 360.

Mushibugyo 3DS Game – First Video Promo Released

Mugai Fights The King Beetle - Mushibugyo Anime — **Mugai Fights The King Beetle – Mushibugyo Anime**

It seems like all my prayers are being answered lately when it comes to Anime, Manga and all things related because not only has there been such incredible releases of Anime/Manga recently but there’s also been a swell of new Anime/Manga-based games that are being made and released. The Anime run of Mushibugyo is soon coming to a close but a few weeks ago it was announced by Namco Bandai that an action, adventure 3DS game based on the series is set for a release on the 19th of September, it almost came out of nowhere but I think we’re lucky it came at all. Namco have now just released a 2-minute promo for the game that shows off, pretty much, everything you can do in the game. You’re able to use more than just the main character, Jinbei, and the game’s story will coincide with the Anime’s story and it seems, judging from the video, that it’s just about spot on.

Mugai Fights The King Beetle - Mushibugyo 3DS Game — **Mugai Fights The King Beetle – Mushibugyo 3DS Game**

There’s a story mode, sub-story mode, suggestion box mode and a whole bunch of other different modes that I’m sure we’ll be catching a glimpse of in the near future. The game will be released in both physical and downloadable versions and they’ll both be available for 5,980 yen which roughly makes up about US$63, so a standard game. The first batch of game copies will also come with a set of “bug-repelling stickers” which show symbols from the series. If you’re not too sure about the story of Mushibugyo it is actually fairly simple: It’s an extremely Shonen which takes place in a, somewhat, twisted Edo Japan, I say “somewhat twisted” because THIS Edo is filled with aggressive, giant insects. Jinbei, our main character, heads to Edo, in replacement for his Father, to join a squad of Samurai that excel in killing these giant bugs and protecting the Capitol from being destroyed. You can check out the First Promo for the Mushibugyo 3DS Game below and don’t forget to hit up our comments section and let your voice be heard.

Take Football Manager 2014 On The Go With PS Vita

Football Manager on the PC has always been a fantastic game, but whenever I have played versions on handheld consoles I have always felt held back by how much the game was dumbed down. Players were missing with fake footballers in their place, stats grew too quickly, and tactical knowledge became an after-thought since every formation would win you the game. That is why the announcement that came out of Sports Interactive and SEGA Europe Ltd today was so exciting .

Football Manager is spawning a new game called Football Manager Classic 2014 for the PS Vita that will allow you to take your FM 2014 PC save file on the go for the first time using innovative, new cross compatibility features. This means that players can shut down their classic mode game on the PC and still be able to play that very same game whether they are at home or out and about.

Combine this awesome new dimension to the game with the 3D match engine that is going to add a whole new dimension to the Football Manager franchise and FM 2014 is certainly looking like the sporting simulation game to buy this year.

Many players have fond memories of the Dungeon Keeper series. The series gave players a chance to play the evil dungeon lord instead of the noble hero slashing their way through hordes of minions. The original game was designed by Peter Molyneaux.

EA is reviving the series for mobile platforms. The game fuses the old game’s strategic gameplay with modern tower defense. Players will build their dungeons, recruit minions, and fend off waves of pillaging heroes seeking to liberate the player’s treasures. Those finding their evil desires in need of being sated can invade their friend’s dungeons to spread the pain.

Dungeon Keeper will be released for iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, and Android this winter.

The “Nowhere to Run” trailer shows off the previously announced killers such as Deathstroke, Bane, Joker, and Copperhead, plus a glimpse at the villain known as Firefly, who utilizes a jetpack to rain fire from the sky. The assassins aren’t the only ones giving Batman trouble in the trailer either as police make their appearance as well.

Those wanting to see all the action for themselves can find the trailer embedded below. Batman: Arkham Origins is set to release October 25th, 2013 worldwide for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, and PC. Don’t forget that those pre-ordering the game will also be able to play as Deathstroke.

Developer TT Games and publisher Warner Bros. brought a special offering of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes to GamesCom this year in the form of a trailer that actually covers both plot and its expansive library of characters. It seems that Dr. Doom is the main cause of trouble as Cosmic Bricks have been scattered all over the world.

While that might may seem like a big issue for Marvel super heroes, after all Fantastic Four trounce him a decent amount, he has also hired every other villain to help him out. Which explains every hero and villain going head to head crating a roster of 100 playable characters, as Dr. Doom looks to build the Dr. Doom Doomray of Doom with all those Cosmic Bricks.

Those wanting to check out the trailer for themselves and catch all the glimpses of characters to be had throughout can find it embedded below. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is set to release in autumn (spring in Australia) of this year for handhelds Nintendo DS, Nintendo 3DS, andPS Vita; consoles Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, Xbox One, and PS4; and PC.
