At the time of release, I was not super into it, but now, looking back there are some great ideas here. I think that Dragon Ball Z has some amazing-looking games, just look at the fairly recent Dragon Ball Fighterz for example!
In regards to Dragon Ball Z Budokai, this game is showing its age. They went for a cell-shaded art style which certainly helps the game fight off father time a little bit. However, things are not as detailed as modern games which is to be expected. This game has a solid soundtrack.
It features rocking music and it has many voices that have clearly just been ripped from the show. These sound files still sound nice and clear and I like the fact that they did this as it makes the story more authentic to the show.
The music is your typical DBZ stuff and I mean that in a good way. As well as the story mode, Dragon Ball Z Budokai is pretty stacked with game modes.
The other main mode is called, World Tournament, and this as the name suggests is a tournament fighter. Here you select your fighter and prove that you are the best fighter. You have a character progression system here which is basic, but it does let you tinker with your fighters to give them new moves and make them stronger.

Like Budokai 2 before it, the Japanese version of Budokai 3 added several costumes not present in the North American and European versions. The North American Greatest Hits version of Budokai 3 adds these costumes, as well as the option to switch the audio to Japanese for the first time in North America.
From this release onwards, all Dragon Ball Z games in North America and Europe were released with dual voice language options in English and Japanese in order to please all fans. The choices the player makes in the story determine how the story evolves. Another mode is the Arcade mode, a single-player mode that lets you brawl against the CPU in order to fight and gain the Dragon Balls.
Next is the Z trial mode, which consists of two different types of play: survival, where you fight against CPU-controlled opponents for as long as you can, and time attack, where you see how fast you can make it through a predetermined set of opponents. Finally, there's the Profile Card mode in which the players will have their in-game character profile cards that lists their name and power level.
The player can design their own card and customize them with the items from the game's item store. The game features a brand new story that tells the tale of Majin Buu being released in Future Trunks' timeline.
As Majin Buu is too strong for Trunks to handle alone, he uses his time machine to recruit the original Z warriors for assistance, eventually succeeding in the destruction of Majin Buu. Both games include the optional original Japanese language track.
Both games also feature reused soundtracks consisting of soundtracks from the US and European versions of the Sparking! Budokai Tenkaichi games, whereas the soundtracks from the original PS2 versions were made by Kenji Yamamoto. This is because Yamamoto had used actual songs [6] as bases for the tracks he made for the Dragon Ball Z games he worked on were replaced by Shunsuke's scores.
The first Budokai received 'mixed or average' reviews on both platforms according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. Many critics complained about the GameCube version's simple interface and the fact that combos weren't worth the payoff.
Budokai 2 received 'average' reviews on both platforms according to Metacritic. Budokai 3 was given much higher reviews than its predecessors Budokai and Budokai 2 according to Metacritic. Its fighting and graphics have also been praised, with IGN stating that Budokai 3 was 'One of the few instances of cel-shading done right', and that it 'also offers a healthy amount of special effects and pyrotechnics and they all look great.
