Smart for Move.
Dumb for Kinect.
How in the hell are you going to move around?

It will probably be an on-rails fighting game. Scripted. You move to attack and if you fail or succeed, different scenarios happen.

ShinMaster5226d ago (Edited 5226d ago )

That will probably be a pretty accurate description of the game.

A little too late though. Back when I was a kid, I liked to pretend by throwing my arms forward going "Kamehameha!".
Kinda like pretending you have a gun in your hand

going "pew pew!".

man the kinect isnt capable of anything good except dance games, LMAO!!!!!!!!!!! i feel so bad for people who bought it thinking it would be usable on normal games

The wii dbz games beg to differ on your opinion of a move dbz game. It would end up with tacked on motion for certain actions and after a while the novelty of motion for special attacks wears off.

I think in the end the problem is that dbz is too unrealistic to make a proper motion controlled game, so you end up with a weird combination of motion and button mashing that doesnt work that well

As for kinect, you are right, it will be terrible, on rails or something weird

HEY EVERYBODY LOOK AT ME ON N4G AND I'M DISSING THE XBOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

BUBBLE ME UP GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shadonic5226d ago

easy just script it to a gesture its just like with controllers just scripted a certain direction to a certain button or a action is set to be done only when such button is pressed or when a certain requirements are met Its actully very simple I actually made a post on my own idea for a DBZ kinect game.

Knightofelemia5226d ago

It would be interesting to play.

DarkBlood5226d ago

thats a couple of games to get a kinect for but still not enough for me to warrant a purchase of it

GraveLord5226d ago

Please no. We have no need for an on-rails DBZ game.

Nitrowolf25226d ago

Don't even think we need anymore DBZ games if they are pretty much just repeats. I wish they would do something new with the games now. Would love to see CyberConnect develop one considering how well they did Naruto. Would love to start exploring the world of DBZ again with all these awesome cutscenes and such rather then have chapter arcs.

256bit5226d ago

but to bad dbz is a waay better anime/manga than naruto. lol

Shadonic5226d ago

i think its funny that after they made a game without on rails movement and have even made free movement in skrim, dead island , and bulletstorm possible with kinect due to a collage program it just sounds dumb to even mention on rails. just watch the video im tired to replying to the same comments over and over and over again.

Another "pay us more for 40 years of paying us." Anniversary editions are insulting.

"Let Me Solo Her" Receives A Special Award From Namco Bandai For His 1000th Victory Against Malenia

Immersed Gamer writes: "Let Me Solo Her is a legendary Elden Ring player who mastered one of the most infamous bosses to help his fellow tarnished via co-op. And for his service, he received an award from Namco Bandai to commemorate his 1,000th victory. The reward in question is a real, and extremely dope, custom-made sword.

Malenia is regarded as the hardest boss in Elden Ring, and the relentless Tarnished has defended literally thousands of hosts against this malice. Let Me Solo Her apparently passed 2,000 Malenia kills a while back, but it’s hard to measure the exact count he is at now. Bandai Namco sent the gift his way when he was at around 1,000 kills. But due to the nature of the object, it got stuck in customs for a while!"
