    The scope of this title covers the final third of the Legacy of Goku storyline, but it does so in splotchy, episodic segments relying on the most generic "walk around, talk to people, and fight things" formula. [Oct 2004, p.147]

    A near-perfect example of wasted potential. The developers fine tuned the game's combat by including better collision detection, the ability to switch in and out of different characters, and a new block button. Sadly all of this does little when the characters are painfully similar, and each are so powerful that they can more or less walk through anything in their way by the player simply pressing the A button repeatedly.

    What ends up happening is that you'll just punch and kick your way through the game. Sure, you'll change characters and gain access to new special moves, but it's still the same thing over and over. Punch, kick, block. Rinse, lather, repeat.
