Along with Shin Budokai 2 probably the best realization of the Budokai combat system. All of the annoying gimmicks from: Budokai 3, Infinite World, and Burstlimit are removed providing a pure & refined gameplay expereince. Some of the variety from the capsule system has been lost but characters are limited to 1 transformation so they can't cheese with stun. Nothing impressive or offensive about the story mode, just pure battles of varying challenge.

(The combat & roster in Shin Budokai 2 is slightly improved but this is overall the better game)
