    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.

    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.

    The gameplay is the only part it gets right. [Issue#122, p.77]

    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.
