2. About the Game
Dragon Ball Z Budokai 2 is the best fighting game ever!!! I got this on my
birthday. It's lost some of it's shine, put it still really fun to
play. This game is cel-shaded so it look like the anime. Atari has taken out
Story Mode out, which was cool, and replaced it with a mode called Dragon
World. This mode is cooler than it looks, and it looked pretty cool to start
with. The replay value of this game is pretty good.... but after the 4th or
5th time through, it gets old. There's also many other things new about this
game..... but you'll have to find them on your own.
Here are the default controls for the game and the key
Key
Square- Punch
Triangle- Kick                         Punch=P    Great Saiyaman=GSM
Circle- Energy/ Ki Blast Wave          Kick=K     DragonballZ Budokai 2= DBZB2
Ex- Guard                              Guard=G
L1-N/A                                 Energy=E
L2-N/A
R1- i think its P+K
R2- i think its P+G
Other Controls
Here are my controls                 PPPKK             2. A good combo you should use.
This is also the combo
used for Justice Pose (See Section 5.). You start
with 3 punches then ending with Saiyaman jumping
and doing a double reverse kick. Very Sweet.
3.KKKK                3. Simple yet effective. 3 kicks, followed by a
strong final kick. I don't use this one that
much.
4.PPP->P,E            |then, quickly rushes down in a flash of
|               |blue energy.
_____________________|_______________|_______________________________________
2. Justice Kick      |PPKKE,         |GSM does a powerful drill kick surounded
|KK->K->KE      |by white energy.
_____________________|_______________|_______________________________________
3. Justice Pose      |->PPPKE        |If you thought Saiyaman was dumb in the
|               |show, look at him here! Gohan obviously
|               |has no idea how to be a super hero.GSM
|               |Says, "Allow me to tell you my name,"
|               |You then press a series of buttons. If
|               |you get them right the following happens,
|               |"I am, The champion of justice," He then
|               |gets on his tip toes and runs in place.
|               |"The defender of peace!" He then does the
|               |splits and gets up and it looks like he's
|               |doing a wall sit with no wall, and puts
|               |his hands above his head and says,"The
|               |Greeeeeeeeeeeeat SAIYAMAN! If you mess up
|               |the oppnent just looks at you like your an
|               |idiot And thanks to Icyicefire for
|               |telling me about what happens when you
|               |mess up.

Physical Attack Capsules
______________________________________________________________________________
1.Justice Finisher   |KKK->KE        |A very good physical attack. GSM
|               |launches your opponent into the air,
|               |and does a series of kicks and puches,
|               |and elbows him to the ground. GSM
|               |flies straight down, and if you press
|               |a different button than your opponent,
|               |and lands on his back really hard with
|               |his knee.
_____________________|_______________|_______________________________________
2.Justice Flash      |->PPPPE        |GSM smacks his opponent into the air and
|               |smacks him back down in a hurry. Rotate
|               |the analog sticks as fast as you can. GSM
|               |charges up and delivers a volley of Ki
|               |energy blast, 9, I think, and if you
|               |charged it up all the way, he fires a
|               |big blast at the beat opponent. it does
|               |almost twice as the other nine.O_O.
_____________________|_______________|_______________________________________
3.Justice Carnival   |->KKK          |After the kicks, GSM will attack the
|               |enemy at blinding speeds. This, and the
|               |Burst Zone is what DBZ is all about. '_^
_____________________|_______________|_______________________________________
4.Justice Dynamite   |P+G(R1)        |GSM kicks the enemy into the air, then
|               |kicks the enemy down but keeps his foot
|               |in the opponents gut and slams him into
|               |the ground with his foot.
