Supersonic Warriors 2

Anyone got this game? I bought it a while ago, and I really enjoyed it, and it seemed to me it didn't really get enough attention, so I thought mayb there are some people here on C3 who also have this game(highly doubt it though) and know some things about it that I don't

I wanted it, but I didn't have the spare cash, and I've already got too much to play. It looks quite fun...

It is! Although it can get frustrating at times in one of the modes. There you have like these "

Cool, sounds good - may nab a copy in the future sometime. I remember the original, played on it for about an hour - seemed very cool - like a sequel to the awesome Snes Hyper Dimension.

Has it changed since SW1 ?

Yeah it has, but not so drastically you won't recognize anything The visuals have had a serious upgrading, better back grounds, better characters, better beam-sprites, and more diversity as well, and the controls have been altered for the best. Instead of having to hold an attack button to block, and in that way prolly get hit by blocking too late, the blocking has it's own button.

I'll list what every button does:
A: Ki-blast(+R= upgraded Ki-Blast,+X=attacks such as Kamehameha)

B: Guard(+Y=Throw,+B=Super Guard, stops every attack)

X: Strong punch/kick(+A=attacks such as Kamehameha)

Y: Weak punch/kick(+B=Throw)

L: Teleport(only Goku),Transform character(Normal Saiyan>Super Saiyan)

R: Charge Ki(+B=Super Guard, stops EVERY attack)

D-Pad: Moving character around, dashing(+R=Quick Flight, move to opponent character very fast)

Touch Screen: Activate Team Attack, switch character by touching their portrait.

It's all very natural whilst playing, even using the touch screen for the character switching.

The Team Attacks are also a new element. Certain characters combined in a team can do a special move together by pressing the "TEAM" icon on the touch screen, and they look mighty fine, if I do say so myself. Another new element is the Ultimate Attack, which you can use when your Health Bar(now fully upgraded INCLUDING a character portrait) is in the RED. It is a devastating attack and, ofcourse, differs for each character. Normal Goku will use his Kaio-Ken, but Majin Vegeta for example will do his Final Explosion, also used on Buu in the series. If anyone has any other questions, even about unlockable characters, feel free to ask...

Nice! Sounds pretty good to me - may just nab it off Ebay!

What's the main single player mode like though - story? replayability?

I don't usually get fighting games unless they have decent modes to play through

I havn't even heard of this game.

Edit : Oh wait it's that DBZ game, yeah looks ok but i tend not to go for those type of fighters.

Well, you have Z-Battle mode, like in the first one it's the main fighting mode with your team against the computer's team, and a What If story mode, with some branching paths for each character, giving you some alternative endings and different attacks to unlock, as well as different characters. So you have to play through the Story mode to get everything available. Every different character used in the story mode opens up new characters to use, which you then have to use to unlock their attacks. Then you have VS battle, to wireleslly(yay) battle against a friend who has the game as well, no single-card download play. Then you have Maximum Mode, which is there to unlock Dragon Points. The more Dragon Points you have, the stronger the characters you can have in your team. This mode is the most challenging ofcourse, hence the name Maximum, and this alone took me quite some time to complete. This is also the mode in which you encounter the "

Untill you use their team attack

To be honest the first one was the only DBZ fighting game I thought was good other than Hyper Dimension... The fact that the control is a bit better souns good... I'd probably get it if I didn't have about 10 other DS games to get already...

(And the worst part is I already have 13 >_>)

I'd rather like to be able to use them in their own right, too, like you can in the Budokai games on consoles.

I might pick this up..
