Extraterrestrials appear in many video games in a variety of styles. Sometimes they're evil, sometimes they're benevolent, and sometimes they're very similar to humans.
The corporation run by Bulma's family and the source of their wealth.
It's all in the family.
It's not just for airplanes anymore: Game mascots and MMO players alike have taken to the skies. Players can use flight to quickly navigate large levels, find hidden items, or take opponents down.
When two or more elements become one and form something new.
A living being who is the product of the reproductive mating of two different species.
Special or stronger units than standard ones, usually found in strategy games. This is not necessarily the same thing as a superhero or a game's protagonist.
The Kamehameha or "Turtle Wave of Destruction" is the signature attack of the Dragon Ball franchise seen most often performed by Goku.
Known as Chi in Chinese and Ki in Japanese, it is spiritual energy which cultivates itself through training and meditation. In experienced hands, it becomes a form of visible energy which can heal, destroy, or do many other tasks, determined by the amount of Ki and the user's overall ability to manipulate it.
These games are based off of established licenses, such as movies, comics, or TV shows. Examples are the James Bond 007 and Spider-Man franchises.
Martial arts are a popular set of skills that many video game characters possess. Martial arts are the cornerstone of any fighting game, and have influenced many platforming and adventure games.
In the Dragon Ball Z franchise, the Saiyans (also known as Saiya-Jins) are a warrior race from the Planet Vegeta.
Protagonists that have gravity defying hair styles and often appropriately spikey personalities.
Super Speed is the ability for a character to travel at speeds normally unattainable by regular humans. Super speed can be a stock super power by characters such as the Flash & Sonic the Hedgehog, or a technologically enhanced ability like Nomad in Crysis.
Strength beyond normal human bounds, i.e. lifting cars, bending metals, shattering a street with one's fist.
The ability to manipulate objects with one's mind. Telekinesis is often displayed as an incredibly powerful ability.
The ability to move from one area to another instantaneously - typically through some sort of special power or device.
A transformation is a different stage or form for something. Usually an upgrade.
Just as heroes sometimes fall from grace, occasionally someone who works for the forces of evil will turn their life around and become a good guy.
Tournament where the mightiest martial artist gather to decide who is the strongest in the world. Also known as the Tenkaichi Tournament.
