The characters include old stalwarts such as Goku, Vegeta, and Krillin, but bring in a few that are new to the Raging Blast series like Ultimate Gohan, Turles, Cooler, and Mecha Frieza. RB2 adds twenty characters to the roster, bringing the total character count to over ninety. Speaking of characters, Raging Blast 2 wouldnt be much of a sequel without the addition of a few new characters. Each of the characters sports much more detail than the impressive character models in the previous game. Of course, quite a while ago, the look of the games progressed beyond the anime, and Raging Blast 2 definitely keeps up that tradition. The graphics are a bit sharper than the last iteration, with crisp, cel-shaded visuals that leap out at the player. Raging Blast 2 adds quite a few of the expected features. You take control of the protagonists (and antagonists occasionally) of the Dragon Ball Z sagas and recreate any of the numerous, planet-shattering battles.
For anyone whos been away from DBZ gaming for a while, Raging Blast is a kind of high-definition, easier-to-say version of the Budokai Tenkaichi series. Raging Blast 2 continues the formula set in place by last years Raging Blast. How do you keep an annual game fresh when there havent been any new episodes in two decades? Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2, the sequel to last years Raging Blast, attempts to do this by adding a few features never before seen in a DBZ game. However, basing a game on a series that hasnt had any new episodes for over a decade comes with a particular problem. While a lot of anime junkies find themselves drawn to the relatively newer Naruto games, there is a strong annual following for each years addition to the Dragon Ball gaming universe. As one of the first Japanese cartoons to reach the mainstream, the glowing, muscular heroes of DBZ are nearly synonymous with anime to the average American. Dragon Ball Z is one of the most well-known and popular anime series in America.
