    Dragon Ball: Origins is a pretty good action-adventure game, and it's an even better re-creation of Akira Toriyama's classic comics. [Dec 2008, p.100]

    Simply put, Dragon Ball: Origins is the most interesting Dragon Ball adventure that Atari's put on the table since the first Budokai title.
  3. While not too many people will be in tune with the original Dragon Ball series, it’s worth noting that Dragon Ball: Origins is the best Dragon Ball game available on the DS.
