The Budokai games were very popular in Latin America, especially the Tenkaichi ones. Since Dragon Ball arrived here in the mid 90s most the only DBZ games we used to play before Budokai were one from the Mega Drive and Final Bout for the PSOne, but the Budokai felt more like the anime Something interesting is the amount of mods that people mananaged to make for the games, especially the ones that try to add voice clips from the famous Latin American Spanish dub

I loved all the budokai games but man Budokai 3 was special. That opening song and animation got me so hyped and as a kid who never had access to the extended DBZ universe like the movies, seeing Gogeta and Broly got me so excited to see that there was more Dragon ball content to discover beyond the shows. Not having the internet at the time, I remeber so vividly stumbling across the diverging path in the story mode to fight Broly, which blew my mind. My dad sense my joy in that moment and watched me fight and unlock Broly, its a memory I don't think I'll forget. Budokai 3 had this magic I've only seen FighterZ emulate in brigning people together, even years after Budokai's release friends would want to battle it out, there's just something about the artsyle, the music, the teleporting, how all the mechanics came together that told us this is THE Dragon ball Z game. Others had more characters, FighterZ is probably the best combat system, but Budokai 3 had the most heart.

The audience that was built in for that game, didn’t and pretty much couldn’t show up for it for those reasons.

So I pick it up and bought it like $40. I played it and it looks very similar to Budokai 3, but they've added features in the game like Aura Burst. But some of the features like Hyper mode, Dragon Rush, and beam clashes were taking out in the game. Even the World Tournament mode was not appearing in the main menu, and I was absolutely shocked.

Something to mention about the NA re-release (the Greatest Hits version) of Budokai 3, among those features from the Japanese version, it also has the original Japanese voices as an option. However, the first batch released had none of those features, and was just a reprint of the vanilla NA release, meaning that if you want a physical copy with the additional content, I believe it's a gamble since I'm not aware of any differences between the two. Maybe the UPC was different, I don't remember.

Budokai always had a special place in my heart. I essentially took over my dad's copies of the trilogy and spent countless hours playing them, especially 3. I actually once made an attempt to create a tournament scene for Budokai 3 at my local comic book store. Whiiiiiiich did not work out because I ultimately learned through this just how unoptimized for tournament play Budokai 3 was. An amazing game to play casually, but from a competitive sense, the game is *littered* with broken characters, cheap tricks, and unfair advantages to the point where it just wasn't worth the effort. Still, Budokai 3 remained my favorite Dragon Ball game for years up until Dragon Ball FighterZ released, and I hope someday we get some form of Budokai 4. Tenkaichi is also great, but it just never held a candle to the OG Budokai in my opinion.

Budokai 1 was one of the first T games I ever got and, as someone who had never (and still has never) seen the show, I remember being absolutely horrified by the first shot of Goku's bloody face hurtling toward the ground, which was one-upped about 15 minutes later with him taking the Special Beam Cannon straight through the stomach complete with a gaping hole rendered in his body. I made sure my mom never saw a second of that game. But even though my memories with the first game are special, I actually had a lot more fun over the years playing through the second one. It makes for a really fun pass the controller co-op game if you have different people control different characters. We actually did exactly that on my old KZbin channel from college and it made for a fun series. After spending time with the first two, I never ended up getting the third; I guess I just kind of thought I had gotten what I needed to out of the series and was evolving into a much more mature gamer with the many superior options available on PS2 at the time. Still look back fondly on those first two games, though, even though I know mechanically they really aren't that great.

Burst Limit was really the next gen continuation/spiritual successor of the Budokai line. It was Budokai cranked up to 11. It had so much style and looked great, felt good to play too. Beam clashes and transformations have literally never been done better than in that game. It sadly only goes up to the cell saga and the story progression felt bare bones, which was just unacceptable at the time and especially is now, but if it had been given the chance for a sequel or a trilogy? With fine tuning and more story/characters, I have no doubt it would’ve been Budokai levels of popular by the end. Would’ve loved to see the Buu Saga and GT (there was no super back then folks) done in the visual style of that game. It just got so much right, it’s a shame it had some missing pieces overall. I wish we lived in the reality where games like Budokai, Budokai Tenkaichi, Burst Limit, or Raging Blast just got to continue and keep getting bigger and better looking. Instead we got Xenoverse and in my opinion, we’ve never fully recovered. Hopefully Budokai Tenkaichi 4 is awesome and gets Dragonball games back on track because they’ve been ROUGH for a while now (excluding FighterZ which was actually dope). Which is crazy, with all this tech, they should be better than ever.

My friends got me playing Budokai 2 and 3 and I ended up getting the latter. Beat it 100%, was morbidly addicted, and beat all my friends. That said, I would like to see you cover Shin Budokai, Infinite World, and Burst Limit in a future video!

I loved Budokai 2 the most, the quest mode was very fun.

That quest mode was the best feature in the trilogy , budokai 3 was the best imo but 2 had the most unique campaign

In Australia we had this game released with both covers and they had the Japanese dub too
