    When I popped this game in for the first time i felt nothing but nostalgic excitement. The game began and i quickly realized that this was not the same budokai style game from the past. It tries to reinvent the wheel, and i think it fails miserably. Ive never played a more frustrating game in my life. If i wasnt a dbz fan, i dont think i could even play this game.

Ive never played a more frustrating game in my life. If i wasnt a dbz fan, i dont think i could even play this game. Ive tried to keep going, but the inexplicable difficulty mixed with the horrid camera angles and poor fighting system make playing this game absolutely infuriating. I wouldnt recommend this game to my worst enemy. Its a disgrace to the dragonball name, to fighting games, and to fans everywhere. Expand

    Dragon Ball Xenoverse is a game for the fans. They're the ones who will appreciate seeing the well-known story arcs through different perspectives and being able to play them out in unconventional ways.

    People unfamiliar with games themed around Dragon Ball Z will not find much here to latch onto, but fans of the Dragon Ball Z franchise will not know what to expect from a twist and turned filled time travel story that will rearrange all of their favorite characters until those fans can put them back in order again.
