    As a DB fan I was disgusted with the efforts made in this game. I have seen the film, which left me colder than the arctic, but I thought maybe the game will be good. How wrong i was, lacks any substance at all and focuses more on the fact that they are telling a story that never existed in the original Manga or Anime. And I like the touch at the beginning saying "Based on the original As a DB fan I was disgusted with the efforts made in this game.

    This game was great. It alone, has accomplished phenomenal feats. It stopped the holocaust and killed Hitler. It killed Stalin. It prevented World War 3. It almost stopped 9/11. It tore down the Berlin Wall. It put a man on the moon. It approved the Louisiana Purchase. It built the great pyramids. It killed Osama Bin Laden. It has preformed far more tasks that make graduating from HarvardThis game was great. It alone, has accomplished phenomenal feats. It stopped the holocaust and killed Hitler. It killed Stalin. It prevented World War 3. It almost stopped 9/11. It tore down the Berlin Wall. It put a man on the moon. It approved the Louisiana Purchase. It built the great pyramids. It killed Osama Bin Laden. It has preformed far more tasks that make graduating from Harvard look like getting accepted into pre school. This game takes games like, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Last of Us, The original Mario Bros., Skyrim and basically the ENTIRE Nintendo franchise and takes a nice, hot and steamy dump all over them. 10/10 just enough water, would dragon ball: Evolution again.

    Not a terrible game by all means but it's no Dissidia its a decent fighter with decent graphics that conveys a different story than that saiyan saga we've all seen a million times. Just try to tell me I'm wrong. But the Oozaru transformation isn't very coll at all in fact its a complete Blanka rip off (even the moves)

    An aberration in the world of video games and an insult to the Dragon Ball saga. There should never have existed the movie and the video game, Ugly, bad music, horrible controls, poorly performed techniques, ugly graphics. Personally I consider this game to be one of the worst in history.

    II'm simply going to keep this short and sweet: DRAGON BALL: EVOLUTION is utter nonsense, and the movie is the worst anime live action adaptation in history.

    Really bad game, it’s the worst dragon ball game, and also the worst fighting game. I’m really disappointed. This is the worst game of the PSP in my opinion.

    Quitando los loles de ser tan horrible gráficamente como la película, es un juego de lucha convencional. Te pasas el modo historias, desbloqueas todos los personajes, completas el juego y a otra cosa mariposa. No es para echarse a llorar tampoco.

  1. Dragonball Evolution is the antichrist of the latest era of videogames. An incredibly bad fighting game that use the name of the cult classic anime/manga from Akira Toriyama in the worst way we've seen in a long time.
  2. Dragon Ball: Evolution is probably a terrible movie, but I can say with all certainty that it is a terrible game. Poor graphics, a non-existent soundtrack, long loading times, and sparse play value make this title one that you should definitely skip.
  3. 20
    In all, Dragon Ball: Evolution offers zero redemption for its hefty $40 price tag. Stick with the anime and forget this thing even exists.
