Dragon Ball fans with something to prove, though, should find themselves right at home. [July 2010, p.85]

Aside from the actual battle sequences themselves, Dragon Ball Origins 2 reeks with a lack of polish and feels aesthetically bland at times.

DBO2 knows that audience that buys Dragon Ball games and simultaneously gives those players something a little different and all-too familiar. The problems with how characters are modeled during the cut scenes are minor in the grand scheme of things, while the gameplay is the real star of the show.

Takes you from the end of the first World tournament to the end of the Red Ribbon Army saga. If is a pretty good retelling of the dragon ball story. A solid 3/5 stars I would give this. The game-play does get repetitive and it is a difficult game. Save your zeni until the end the last 2 worlds you will need to buy healing items. Overall if you a dragon ball fan there is not to many dragon ball only games and this is the better of the bunch.

Another nice looking arcade adventure aimed at younger players, this time with the option to use buttons as well as touch screen.

Honestly not even better than bubsy 3d. It's like if dark souls met skyrim with ki blasts, but it's just unsatisfying. 2/10

The story is pretty linear, but if you have a buddy with the game, you can play special co-op missions using the game's Tower mode.

Dragon Ball: Origins 2 is a tough game to recommend. It's clearly made for fans, but that isn't quite enough to make one overlook its flaws.

Why can't film tie-ins be as nicely done as this anime spin-off, eh? [Aug 2010, p.73]

Fans of Akira Toriyama's celebrated manga series are sure to be pleased by beautifully stylized graphics, an above-average fighting system and a whimsical storyline pulled out of the manga. Anyone else however, is likely to find Goku's adventure lacking the variation needed to truly stand out among the handheld console's many comparable releases.

Unless you're a die-hard fan, there's no reason to pick this one up.
