    Dragon Ball fans with something to prove, though, should find themselves right at home. [July 2010, p.85]
  3. Dragon Ball Origins 2 its a nice follow-up to the 2008 original game. It has a better storyline and the same gameplay style, but unfortunately, Game Republic doesn't fix the controls and there are some problems related with the framerate.
  4. Richer, more versatile and more playable with the addition of the cross/buttons handling, Dragon Ball : Origins 2 fixes most of the flaws from the previous episode.
  5. Aside from the actual battle sequences themselves, Dragon Ball Origins 2 reeks with a lack of polish and feels aesthetically bland at times.

    Why can't film tie-ins be as nicely done as this anime spin-off, eh? [Aug 2010, p.73]
  7. Unless you're a die-hard fan, there's no reason to pick this one up.

    Another nice looking arcade adventure aimed at younger players, this time with the option to use buttons as well as touch screen.

    Honestly not even better than bubsy 3d. It's like if dark souls met skyrim with ki blasts, but it's just unsatisfying. 2/10
