Dragon ball z:Budokai: Tenkaichi: 3

Dragon ball z:Budokai: Tenkaichi: 3
-Title length
+ Nearly every character you could ever want.
- The characters arn't used to their full potential in story mode. Its as if they didn't know they were getting all of the charachters or forgot.
-Story mode Does some of the major battles justice, but the inclusion of Dodoria and others begs the question why they weren't used in the story mode. Even the Bardock level should have had him, but no.
+- User friendly. User Friendly also means D-pad down is a characters final move, D-pad left is typically second best, D-oad right is charge or blast 1 attack. D pad up are buffs. Now most of these are combinded with the moves animation from the anime, but it still is way too easy to do moves.
-Every characters move set is essentialy the same amoutn, and there isn't much variety from BT2.
-BT2 had the better story mode.
+Combat feels like dragon ball z.
+Story mode features the movies.
+The movies story modes unlock about where they would fit in the timeline if they could.
+American voice actors return.
-Edited version of alot of elements.
+Picclo says in one of the menus to shut up or he'll break your neck :D
-The story mode is so F'ed up that only the fans who've memorized the show would get it.
-In story mode, characters will randomly bark comentary off screen.
All in all, unless you can get this game for cheaper(and even then, only if you care about the new characters most of whom are minor, sans Future Gohan GLEE) I'd say go for BT2. BT2 is by and far the best fighter on the wii and boasts a beter story mode that even non fans might be able to follow.

Score comes to a -1 using the above 16 point pro/con list.
