Adding in a Z Trial mode that pits fighters against certain conditions, like Time Attack or Survival play, 2player Network Battle over Ad Hoc and unlockable goodies in a shop, theres plenty of stuff here for DBZ fans to fight over.

The third in Atlus unusually thoughtprovoking RPG series. In Persona 3, you play as a 17 yearold boy whos just transferred schools.
