Overview
Super Dragon Ball Z is a
3D fighting game based off of the
Dragon Ball Z license released in arcades and later on the
Playstation 2.
Noritaka Funamizu, famous for developing
Street Fighter II, was head of development for the game. Though the game is cel-shaded like other 3D Dragon Ball games, it bases itself on the Dragon Ball manga as opposed to the animated series.
Gameplay
The game uses four buttons - Light Attack, Heavy Attack, Block, Jump, - and other techniques can be done by doing combination of those four buttons.
Goku, fighting Piccolo.Super Dragon Ball Z plays very similar to games in the
Street Fighter franchise. A lot of
dragon punch and
hadoken style motions are used for certain moves in the game - as a matter of fact,
Goku actually has a dragon punch in the game. Another thing that makes Super Dragon Ball Z closer to Street Fighter or actually many fighting games, is it has a
super meter that built up when the player's character is getting damage or attacks for super attacks or if you're playing as Sayian character it is use for turning Super Sayian.
The game has a stamina meter that is use for dash and dash attacks, and it is also use for floating up in the air - the meter recovers in a short amount of time.
