Join us as we take a deep dive into Dragon Ball Z's Past, with a review of the most highly praised game in the Budokai Series, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3. While some may love, feel neutral, or (for reasons i would never understand) dislike Budokai 3, it is hard to argue that the name doesn't hold weight to this day - even among titans like Kakarot and Budokai Tenkaichi 3. In this video we discuss why in retrospect, it's great, and perhaps even better than you think. Also touching on topics like, how well it holds up to modern day standards, if it truly is top 5 dragon ball z games of all time, and tons of other interesting tid-bits. Trust me, you don't want to miss it! - Hry
Just wanted to say - sorry this video took so long! I forgot how much content was in this game and i wanted to make sure i did it justice. Let me know what you guys think! Also, new video ideas are always appreciated
U DID A GREAT JOB
great video but you didn't talk about cancel in this game. The more fun and the core of the true B3 gameplay. Also we have some other subitilities like counter teleportations with hits instead of teleporting ourself. Except that, very great game. (Cancel is when you charge a hit, the press the guard, you will cancel the hit and you can link to another string to do a true combo).
Really thinking about getting a PlayStation 2
Anyone else upset that the HD collection didn't include the original soundtrack?
I actually never got the HD collection, but that would definitely have been a disappointment for me
@@mysteriousthirteen it was for me. That intro is forever burned into my best memories of the game, and they changed it because the guy who did the music was stealing a bunch of music from other artists. So they had to redo the whole soundtrack.
@@alexmorgan2148 oh seriously? I purposely didn’t add the intro here because I saw another CZcamsr (although eventually won in fair use clause) got demonetized for that exact reason
@@mysteriousthirteen no no, that intro was an original song. They just couldn't show it because of other music he stole. Like none of the music, including originals, could be featured in Budokai 3 HD. Luckily Budokai kept rock the dragon.
Literally everyone.
Fun fact X, Triangle, Square wins the offensive dragon rush 80% of the time
Noted 🫡
Put so many hours into this game. Still my fave DBZ game of all time
One of the GOATs
The way you talk about stuff with so much passion is fun to listen to
I love (almost) every game I review , and the process of making a video in general so I guess it just shows naturally. glad you enjoy the vids man!
Budaki 3 was fire the dragon rush was not the best but the ultimate attacks was and is still the best of all time even how they expanded on vegetas big bang attack fire
B3 is top tier for sure. Hoping Sparking Zero can learn from what this and BT3 did right
That intro song is the theme song to dragon ball in my head above even cha la head cha la
The intro lives rent free in my head as well lol
Oh man a new MT upload woohoo.
havent visited the channel for a little while now , glad to see you on the quality content grind.
even before watching the vid im here saying the budokai seris Especially! 3 , were a Giant part of my childhood.
Also loved your budokai 2 retrospect. Cheers brother.
Hey man! I was wondering where you were - not to be weird but your pfp always stood out to me so you’re one of the few commenters I can easily recognize haha.
Appreciate the kind words, I’m definitely on a quality over quantity grind. Hell I almost pushed this back a week because there’s more I wanted to say lol
@@mysteriousthirteen Thanks brother!!
It shows! , Quality over quantity is the way to go.
your in depth retrospects are easy to get into and listen to , well produced from a starting content creator if I haven't said that yet. Great content for unwinding as well.
Hey, also maybe consider CZcams gaming live streams , etc in the future when you keep gaining more subscribers and viewers ,it can be a potential great leavrage for you. small donations from regular viewers are a great way to support starting content creators to make more content, You deserve it!
Also yeah haha , my pfp is from my one piece grinding days , Crocodile is a menace , Lol.
Rock on brother!!
Very much appreciated and I'm glad you enjoy the content so far! I've considered the possibility of starting a weekly live stream on the channel. Perhaps I'll try it out whenever I hit 1000 subs as a celebratory thing. Anyway, good to hear from you bro!
@@mysteriousthirteen Do it! , ill be tuning.
Btw just remembered , did you play Sonic Heroes? Nostalgia hits me hard with this game , maybe you can cover it one day
Of course! Can't wait to do a video on it. It's in my list to do maybe 3 or 4 videos out at the moment
3:41 oof. I loved flying around on these maps, it really added so much feel to the world of DBZ.
Definitely made the game feel much more immersive in comparison to many others. It’s up there with kakarot for me in that regard
I’ve been really enjoying your videos! keep it up
Thank you so much!
You can also fight Omega Shenron in Uub’s story.
And some others going off the beaten path.
Oh seriously? I had no idea lol. At least that adds a bit of depth to it
I had always loved dbz and fighting games in general. I remember the first time I played this in a friends house and it was the most intense and fun time playing a game. Budokai 2 was my first real dbz game and this was my dream back then.
Nothing beat this trilogy back in the day. And it’s still hard to find fighting games, especially anime on this level IMO
Yeah best gameplay outthere in DBZ games.
Still some people practicing and playing a lot today with online emulator. Even organizing tournament.
Budokai 3 was ahead of it’s time. Very few DBZ games that I had an all around incredible experience with like I have with B3
great video!
also tbh you have a really good voice for commenting and narrating
Thank you, that really means a lot! Glad you enjoyed the video
Ay i just wanna say im really enjoying ur content man, keep it up goat
I appreciate you 🫡
Good video I saw your other budokai videos
Thanks man!
Nice man i just ordered my copy for the ps2, I CAN’T WAIT
Hype bro! You’re in for a great time
Id do anything to see this come out modernized. Arguable best fighting game of all time.
Yeah, it’s one of the best I’ve ever played. I’d pay pretty good money for a remake
@@mysteriousthirteen I have the modded iso for dbz super characters lmk if you want it.
Hey, great vid! Could you maybe talk about the Password system for Dragon Arena characters?
I think that's what your COM level affects!
Thank you! And is that right? I knew it was useful for Dragon Arena but in general, The password system always kind of confused me. I’ll definitely look into it!
You have a great narrator voice. Keep it up man!
Thank you man! I have no plans of going anywhere
God you need more subs. Great content, keep going.
Thank you man! Hopefully one day we’ll get there 🤞
You will!@@mysteriousthirteen
I loved all the dbz games and playing with my brother made them that much better because we helped each other beat the game. Most importantly we played against each other and that was very fun.
Hell yeah man! Let’s hope we can recreate some of those core memories in Sparking Zero
Just replayed 1 in Japanese first time. Going through 2 again also in Japanese and I can definitely say I see why I enjoyed 1 when it came out but the jump in how much fun I've had with the game from 1 to 2 is pretty insane. I actually like the board game style story mode and having access to characters/moves that shouldn't even be there its definitely more fresh than the non-stop replay of the story as is. Once I'm done with 2 I'll jump into 3 and see how much I like it in comparison. The end of story mode in 2 and seeing that goofy ass fusion of Yamcha and Tien was pretty funny and something I completely forgot about. Lol...
Infinite World basically has the best budokai combat imo, but b3 still holds a special place in my heart
Nice! I’m replaying IW soon, can’t wait
Good stuff man. I gotta try dbz budokai gamEs
thanks bro! you should - they're timeless
Emulate on a steam deck
I had no idea that was possible but now I might try it lol
I play all of them I’m still tryna unlock everything in budokai 1
It’s a grind for sure
I also dont think i logged more time on a game more than this until dark souls 1 released
It literally just had so much to offer
This game was also how I finished dragon Ball z cuz I would never catch it on TV and man lemme tell you when I say down and watched the anime properly it fucking blew my mind
Man I wish I could go back and watch dbz for the first time. What an experience. I remember a lot of kids would only play the games back in the day and not realize how great the anime is
Please make a video on Supersonic Warriors
I definitely will sooner or later
Dragonballz kakarot has many budokai references
For sure!
Like what?
Infinite World (Budokai 4) is way better. More characters, better capsule system, mini games, open areas, better story, actual cinemas, and NO DRAGON RUSH.
I dont think you mentioned the cancel system which is the singular thing that puts Budokai on the map. You might want to bring that system up as its the difference between getting done with a button mashing mess and actually playing the game long term. Its why the entire hyper mode system is complete trash since doing 2 bars of heath in damage is trivial when you know what you are doing and not commiting suicdee via idiot mode
Ah man, I did absolutely forget to mention this in regard to the combat. Assuming infinite world also has this function(?), when I get around to that video I will make sure to include it and reference back to the previous games
What about Infinite World?
I’ll be playing that soon!
the game is good, but even back then when 3 dropped me and many other of my friends did not like 3 as much as 2... this was a common thought back then and still is now. but if there was any game they had that was considered to be a favorite it was budokai 2, or budokai ten 2/3.
Hell yeah man, I know where you’re coming from. Dragon Rush and some of the mechanics in B3 are not the best, others like teleporting and dodging are great though. Personally love both of em
5:00 that’s wrong dude membership cards were also present in Budokai 2
Oof, that’s my bad. Thanks for pointing that out man
Love this game
One of the greatest of all time IMO
Dragon Rush annoyed the crap out of me. You have such a low chance of winning 3 button presses in a row.
Yeah I’m not a fan. Takes away from the overall enjoyment of the combat
Yea they didn’t really think that one out imo. One way they could’ve made it better was not eliminating a face button after each guess/turn, greatly increasing the odds of finishing the rush and landing that final flash lol
On the flip side of things, you are left with an equally low chance of escaping said final flash when you get caught in a dragon rush in that scenario.
Should have the same system as the ultimate but three times in a row, would make it way better
I prefer Tenkaichi 3 but don't disparage people who prefer Budokai 3.
I think it just depends if you prefer 2.5D or 3D fighters.
Agreed. I do need to replay the Tenkaichi series soon (for myself and for the channel) as it’s been probably 5 years. Whenever those videos release I’ll have a much more accurate opinion
i want this on steam
Same here. Having older DBZ games on steam would be huge, and probably would sell well too
i be happy they bring back the original with the voice and sounds intact
@@mysteriousthirteen
13:07 what?
Lmao
Dragonrush is the worst thing about this Game. And that's the only real negative xD fortunately Infinite World took this Rock-Paper-Scissors-thing out.
Agreed! DR and maybe the lack of cutscenes is a very minor issue I had, but that’s it. Also - haven’t played IW in ages but super excited to get into that soon!
people sleeping on your videos hard. anyway has anyone told you you look like alt projared
Lol thank you! But nah I can’t say I’ve heard that before 😂
Nostalgia, what else? the game is far from perfect and thus, far to deserve to be so loved in my opinion
Valid opinion honestly and I appreciate that. Could be partially due to my nostalgia, or just simply the fact I’m a huge dbz fan in general but as you can see from the retrospective I quite enjoyed it and thought it was very well made for anime game/for its time
Budokai 3 was easily the best DB game when it was first released. B1 and B2 were fun but weren't technically "good" games, and most pre-Budokai games straight up suck.
B3 was the first game that a large portion of non-DB fans were digging. It was common for critics to say "You don't have to be a fan to enjoy Budokai 3".
It was also arguably the closest a DB game came to a legitimate fighter before FighterZ. There is a lot of depth and complexity to its mechanics that largely went undiscovered during its heyday due to the game never giving players a true incentive to get better (the in-game tutorial doesn't teach you how to play that well and the AI even at higher difficulties falls for cheese tactics to some level).
I dont
dang now I gotta change the title
Bt3 was 10x better
Subjective, I think BT3 is better also but only by a small bit lol
What was your favorite button to mash?
@@TrollCapAmerica bro, just watch a competitive bt3 match, button mashing does not work against someone who actually plays the game. Bro forgot other inputs exist when specifically playing bt3
@@Deedescape Whats a cancel in Budokai kid? Humor me and show me you didnt know what you were doing thats why you played the one with the broken defensive system and 8 moves shared between a cast of thousands instead of the good one when you werent rewarded for mashing buttons
@@TrollCapAmerica my nigga bt3 is just better bro just search up advanced combos on bt3 or a competitive match it’s not that hard
