I LOVE IT
Great game, it's one of my favorites in my collection. I would highly recommend this game if you like Dragon Ball Z. The best dragon ball game in my honest opinion. It took a little longer than expected but it still came in in the estimated delivery date.

Amazing Fighting Games and An Amazing Fan Service!
First, this review is coming from someone that did not play these games when they originally released. I have, however, played most of the Dragon Ball games released this generation. (except for Raging Blast 2) For those of you that don't know, the Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection is packed with Budokai 1 & 3, NOT the Tenkaichi installments. This HD collection is done well, and packs plenty of content for the price.The game retells the events of the Dragon Ball Z series. Budokai follows a more traditional storytelling method (w/cutscenes), while Budokai 3 uses the Dragon Universe. Budokai 1 goes up to the final battle with Cell, while Budokai 3 tells the complete story. If you're familiar with the source material, manga or anime, you'll experience many of the memorable events. I should note: the cutscenes and menus are at a 4:3 ratio instead of 16:9 ratio.The gameplay starts off a bit slow, but as you get a hang of the controls, you'll eventually feel the intensity the series is known for; nothing like lightning fast combos, with a kamehameha to finish! You learn new moves as you progress, and also have the ability to transform in mid-battle. Specifically, X is to punch, Y is to Kick, B is your Ki, and A is to guard. (a bit deeper as you learn, but I won't get too specific.) Both games play as traditional 3D fighters, like Burst Limit.The graphics are as great as they possibly could be. Remember, these aren't supposed to be full HD remakes like the recent Halo: CE Anniversary. Budokai 1 looks a bit rough, but decent, nonetheless. On the other hand, Budokai 3 looks amazing; the graphics can compete with some of the recent installments in the series and a couple of games released this generation.A couple of extra notes: neither of these games have online multiplayer, you can, however, play couch multiplayer at home in the versus modes; I purchased this game directly from amazon.com and, for whatever reason, the game came with two instruction manuals (one inside the case and one outside); and, the game has a reversible cover which looks a lot better in my opinion (the other box art is the Budokai 1 and 3 original cover art split in the middle).If you've played these previously and want a reason to jump back in, then here's an amazing opportunity. If you're a fan of the recent installments of this fighting franchise or the source material, then this game is for you. But, if you're looking for a hardcore fighting game with a deep and complicated fighting system, then you may want to wait for a price drop to give this a try.Update 11/12/12:I've completed Budokai's story, including the What-If levels (which are very funny). I did not run into any game-breaking glitches or flaws. The World Tournament mode is a little difficult, but very fun, nonetheless. I've also progressed deeper into Budokai 3, and it doesn't seem like there are any significant glitches in this game, either. (in case you were worried about purchasing a sloppy port/transfer.)

Budokai 3 still holds up (mostly)
Personally I'm a big fan of Budokai 1 as it was my intro to DBZ, so I'll just say that one feels more like a traditional fighter game which isn't a bad thing in my opinion.Budokai 3 is a different animal though, with kamehamehas accessible by one input as opposed to five, super attacks have a mini button timing battle between the attacker and defender to determine damage, but my most despised part of this game is the dragon rush / hyper mode mechanic where if they hit with a combo or just send you flying, it triggers a mini battle revolving around trying to guess the same button as the attacker to stop the attack, or if you are attacking you want the dragon rush combo to go to the last stage. Unfortunately some special moves are locked behind this mechanic which is only really annoying imo during the world tournament.Both games look great to this day (Budokai 1 does have an older style), but the soundtracks of both games have been replaced with I believe the Tenkaichi soundtrack which doesn't quite match with the feel of this game.Overall - 8 back then, 9 in 2022 because of the decrease in quality of DBZ games overall and the paid content (looking at you, FighterZ, XENOVERSE 2!!)
