One of the most overlooked Dragon Ball Z games ever made. Forget about Budokai. Forget about Tenkaichi. Forget about Xenoverse. Raging Blast may not have the quality of its predecessors in terms of an exciting story-mode that retells the DBZ story we all know and love for the hundredth of time. Instead, it says hey, how about we give you just a shit ton of content to dig into? Galaxy Mode is exactly that. Name your character and you can play through tens of challenges with that character. There's unique dialogue and interactions but no real cutscenes or cinematics. But there's lot for you to chew on, regardless of that. And I must appreciate the game giving spotlight to random movie characters like Cooler's Henchmen Neizu and Dore; or forgotten Namekian heroes such as Nail. It's a great love letter of a game to DBZ fans who just want to go "Oh my god, they have THIS character in the game." or "Oh my god, they have THIS move in the game". Talk about moves, most characters have unlockable moves that you can add to their customized sets. It adds flavour and value to the game to mess around with your character to customize that perfect set of abilities and supers you want to use. Oh and by the way, there's an entire movie that comes with the game. Even if there was no cinematics or cutscenes attached to the main mode of the game, there's an entire animated Dragon Ball movie made for it; one which you can view without unlocking, just for your pleasure.
