So another week and another game of the week! This time around we have a very obscure classic that had a too little, too late release during the Playstation's ending life time. Behold, Dragon Ball GT Final Bout! Why is it worth a mention? Just read on and find out!
The music is quite popular and unique for Dragon Ball games but this one is more of a hit n miss. There are some tunes that are quite catchy but other ones are just totally bland. It would've been real wise to bring the songs from the series into the game. I mean, it was a no-brainer. Overall though, you have a decent soundtrack and worth a remix or two if you are into that type of stuff. On the other hand, the voice acting is truly amazing as they had the real voice actors represent their respective characters. Makes you think, why not make the music from the series as well!
The game has very good graphics. The 3D is very detailed but of course it would've been a lot better with some more work. There are times where objects disappear but it rarely happens. The different battle fields are OK at the most. They do resemble parts of the anime series but somehow always fall flat. A little more animation would've helped a lot. Overall, just OK graphics and character animation is good at most. The voice acting does help but not as much.
The gameplay suffers a lot in this game. If you don't have any patience then you'll be looking to turn this game off as soon as possible. The game has a very odd control scheme but you can get used to it in time. The best part is when you go against the computer or a friend and battle it out with a button mashing power shooting extravaganza!
This game is always great when you have your friends over. It's so crappy at times that you'll want to get drunk in order to enjoy it even more. Believe me, you'll enjoy it. It has a lot of other options such as a level up system where you can train your own Z fighter and then save the information on your memory card, take it to your friend's home and use your memory card saved fighter data to go up against your friend's created fighter. A little confusing? Nah, I don't think so!
Overall, this game is a very good gimmick. You'll end up enjoy it from time to time. There is a lot to love about this title especially in nights where you just wanna step back into the prime of the Dragon Ball series. The game has three different versions as well. There is the original that came out in Japan back in 1997, the release here in 1997, and the re-release which I believe came out in 2003. Get either one and you'll be alright. Until next week!
