Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai, Sony Playstation

Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai is the first game from the successful anime-inspired franchise to make its way to the PSP. There is the opportunity to take on your friends in exhilarating wireless multiplayer battles or go it alone facing the computer, using all the familiar aspects of Dragon Ball Z combat, including super high-speed bouts, counter-attacks, flight and Ki (energy) management. The main story mode, based on the hit movie Fusion Reborn is called Dragon Mode and lets gamers choose from 18 playable characters, including prize fighter Pikkon. After the defeat of Bu, the world thought it had achieved peace. However, the birth of Janenba - who has the power to bring the dead back to life and distort the world's dimension - has signalled a new threat to the planet. Gamers can fly solo or partner up with friends and rivals to defeat this threat. As well as the main story mode, there is a standard one-on-one arcade mode, a time-attack mode, a survival mode, a stripped-down ad hoc multiplayer mode and a training mode. Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai also has a revamped version of the acclaimed Saiyan Overdrive fighting system, the ability to perform in-game transformations to more powerful forms, and an all-new stage from the Janemba movie,

Black and Bruised
Have you ever asked yourself where the fun is in gaming these days? It's true that in some genres, the humorous and comedic approach to games has gone on the back burner in favour of seriousness and realism, particularly with ring sports such as Rocky and Prince Naseem Boxing. But Ready 2 Rumble from Midway reminded us how much of a laugh a game can be. Now Vivendi has taken boxing humour a step f...
Swing Away Golf
The golf simulator is a surprisingly popular genre, although certain games can require a great deal of time and attention before a successful round of golf can be played.

Gran Turismo 4 Prologue
When you're developing a game that's both as eagerly anticipated and as labour intensive as Gran Turismo 4 you're bound to be faced with a bit of a dilemma: accurately modelling all those vehicles (as exhaustively as we've come to expect) as well as introducing new elements such as network play and vintage and classic cars is going to take time and, if you're a sympathetic developer, you're going ...

Strikers 1945: II
Upon creating Strikers 1945: 2, Psikyo has to be congratulated for keeping the dying 2D shoot-em-up flag flying. Along with only the hardcore of Japan's game development houses, Capcom, Konami and Treasure, they are one of the few companies dedicating time to keeping afloat one of the most cherished forms of video game. This game has lost little in the port from arcade to PlayStation and is wonder...
