Is it still worth playing?
A behind the back third person camera is used in this fighting game, based on the Dragon Ball franchise by Akira Toriyama, released for the PlayStation 2 and Wii in 2006. Special forms are treated as their own characters, with different stats, movesets and fighting styles. In battle the player builds up a Ki gauge to execute techniques such as the Power Guard, which reduces the damage a character takes by a quarter. The Ki gauge also pays for moves called Blast 2 skills, and every character has a unique set of them, with special moves such as Ki blasts and physical attacks. A self-recharging Blast Stock gauge allows Blast 1 skills, which usually have a supportive effect. A fighter who powers up behind the camera is still a good reason to pick it up.
