5.0 out of 5 stars A masterpiece, remastered... IN HD!!!
Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2017

First off, if you found this review helpful in your decision-making, please click on the helpful button so this review may help others in their decision-making process.

Bought this game when it first came out back in 2012, and after my ps3 decided not to read discs anymore, turned her in to gamestop for a measly $10-15. Totally regretted it, and when I bought my next ps3, I knew I had to get it again, especially because I am a trophy hunter, and did not complete the platinum for this game yet, and it is a "rainy day, but can still have fun with friends in the house" kind of game.(as it was one of the BEST local fighting games back on the ps2, one of those "fill up the living room with friends and the loser passes on the controller"-type of games, making it one of my more memorable games from the early 2000s.)

Now for the actual game review: ( since it has 2 full seperate games, I shall explain both games), (also, if you HAVE played the earlier ps2 versions, you will be glad to hear that everything seems to have remained the same, except now it is in HD and as mentioned before, now supports trophys, and it DOES NOT allow you to matchmake and face other users online, meaning there is no online portion, similar to earlier versions).

Series gameplay: The Budokai series plays like a typical 3-D fighting game. As well as including the regular punch and kick buttons, there is the ability to shoot Ki blasts, which can also be used in specific special moves. The special moves are mainly taken from individual characters' own special moves from the show; including, but not limited to, Goku's Kamehameha, Vegeta's Galick Gun and Frieza's Death Beam.

Budokai: The game follows the Dragon Ball Z timeline starting with Goku and Piccolo's fight with Raditz up to Gohan's final battle with Cell with a total of 23 playable characters. Features included in the game were a story mode, a versus mode, a tournament stage, a practice mode, and an items shop which allowed the player to purchase various customization abilities using money that was gained through the various challenges in the story mode and tournament victories to customize and make the most powerful warriors. The story mode also included a few "what if" episodes to play, retelling iconic events in the Dragon Ball history with a few twists.

Budokai 3: The game's story mode yet again plays through the events of the Dragon Ball Z timeline, and the game includes several characters and events from the Dragon Ball Z movies (like Cooler, Broly and Bardock), Dragon Ball GT (like Super Saiyan 4 and Omega Shenron), and the original Dragon Ball series itself (Kid Goku). Other features the game includes are a versus mode, an items shop, a tournament, and a battle ranking stage where the player has to challenge the AI in a hundred fighter challenge. Moving a spot above after beating who ever is next in the ranking. The fighting mechanics have also been enhanced from the preceding 2 games making the game closer to its anime counterpart in terms of combat (which was well received by fans of the series and gamers alike). Budokai 3 has a roster of 42 playable characters in recent releases of the game.

All in all, if you have a living room full of friends, I think this is one of the best "sharing" games, as everyone gets a turn, matches arent overly long, and its a head to head battle to see whos best with who. And if you are a dragonball z fan, a must have game to add to the collection of memorys.

5.0 out of 5 stars HD PS2 Dragonball Games
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2012
Verified Purchase
I never owned the Budokai games on the ps2 but now that they're in a ps3 hd collection I'll go ahead and try them out. The story modes each have their own pros and cons but they both work well and are highly enjoyable. The fighting mechanics are definitely better in Budokai 3 but the original's mechanics arn't too terrible where you can't play. The games both play on the same screen as opposed to current Dragonball games where multiplayer is played in splitscreen which I love because a fighting game where the camera is behind my character is a characteristic I can't stand. The only downside is that every character plays basically the same (aside from transformations) and the story mode can be beaten by spamming the same combo over and over. I wouldn't say it's worth the price of a new title but still better than to be classified as a bargain bin. If your a fan of Dragonball pick up this game is its around $30.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must play for Dragon Ball Z fans
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2016

If you want to get the best fighting experience from a Dragon Ball Z game you must get this. The only downside is the soundtrack they changed it for another OST, if you're like me (a fan of the originals) you'll be expecting the amazing soundtrack the PS2/Gamecube versions had, these versions don't have bad soundtracks it's just that I'm probably missing the original OST's. Other than that you get what you expect, HD remastered graphics and ready to be played on new Full HD TV's. Great games. 4/5 because of the soundtrack change.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nostalgia y diversión en compañía de Goku.
Reviewed in Mexico on June 21, 2023

Si bien, este juego no es el más moderno qué hay de la franquicia Dragon Ball, sin duda es uno de sus mayores exponentes de calidad en el pasado.
Al jugarlo se puede notar el paso del tiempo en sus mecánicas pero en algunas otras cosas se siente bastante similar a proyectos actuales como Dragon Ball Z Kakarot.
Cuenta con una buena variedad de personajes y escenarios lo que le da mucha re jugabilidad.
El único punto negativo para mi es que el Budokai 3 no cuenta con su música original por problemas de copyright que hubo en su época y ahora tiene un soundtrack bastante genérico, aun así es bastante disfrutable.
