This is a great DBZ DVD, even though it hardly has any fighting in it at all. The episodes do, however, have a great storyline and some very funny humor. Also, I found out Gohan turns into a super-saiyan in the Perfect Cell Saga DVD: PERFECTION and not in this one. Here are their descriptions:

What is the Tournament?
The Z fighters clean up after the aftermath of their fight with Cell. Goku and Gohan are still training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. The fighters regroup and Master Roshi tells them about what the tournament is. Cell makes the arena for the Cell Games.

The Doomsday Broadcast
Everyone gets ready for the Cell Games. Yamcha and Krillin try to train, but fail. Gohan has a halarious dream and Cell announces his Cell games to the world on TV in a really funny way.

Meet me in the Ring
Goku and Gohan finally come out of the Time Chamber, Cell continues to terrorize people and Goku goes and stares down cell.

NOTE: Again, if you want a lot of fighting, you won't find it here. However, these are some of the funniest episodes and they really build up to the Cell Games.

What is the Tournament?: While Trunks tells the others of Cells plans to hold a tourament, the diabolical andriod begins his preparations for the competition by constructing a fighting arena. Do the Z-Fighters have a chance, or is this a one-sided contest that only Cell can win.

The Doomsday Broadcast: Cell breaks into showbiz - literally! The sinister andriod hijacks a television station in order to announce his Cell games to the world! But are there any challengers left with the strenght and courage to get into the ring?

Meet me in the Ring: All across the globe, the good citizens of earth panic.

This video was mainly on how the z fighters prepare for the coming of the cell games. Goku shows off his power when he and gohan come out of the chamber. Cell makes his broadcast and creates the ring and thats pretty much it.

The start of the whole Cell Games saga...although no real action yet the gang has just 10 days to prepare...and Goku's gonna prepare by doing absolutely nothing to the chagrin of the Z senshi...has he lost his mind or just given up. See for yourself!

I think that these episodes are the best because even though there isn't any fighting in it, without these episodes you wouldn't understand what was going on. I think the best bits are when you see Goku and Gohan in the hyperbolic time chamber training to defeat Cell because when you see Gohan in his Supersaiyan form and with his hair cut there is no other word for him but COOL. I don't like the bits when they put in too much detail e.g. the episode 'A girl called Lime'. I tell you what really annoys me as well ? It's that Hercule guy. He just wants to make me puke. I mean does he realise the true power of Cell? If I did I would run a mile! Anyway, I still that these episodes are the best because this is when you first realise the true potential of Gohan's amazing power that is hidden within

This DVD here lacks of fighting, but does have a certain interest leading up to the middle of the saga. It's about when everyone finds out about the Cell Games and decides to train while Goku and Gohan wrap up their training sessions in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. This is a cool DVD and I hope that the other parts of the saga are out on DVDs soon.

This tape starts the filler episodes in which the Z fighters have ten days to prepare for the Cell Games.

Well, I can't really say this is a highlight of DBZ. Probably the only good points are when Cell makes his declaration of the Tournament. We also get to see the first appearence of Mister Satan (a.k.a. Hercule). In this volume, Goku finally meets the completed Cell and Gohan meets a girl named Lime. There is also the return of Goku's old nemesis General Tao. These episodes are basically character development episodes. But if you want to watch a show about martial arts and action, what the point of these episodes? Did the writers get tired? Anyway, I would recommend buying this tape, but than wait for the Cell games to actually start for the next volume.

This is just the first tape in the Cell Games. What I wan't to know is where is the rest of the saga. I mean it's a good start but it leaves you hanging.

.... overall, sure this video wasn't the best, but u can't expect fighting ALL the time, or the show wouldn't have a plot. this video gives u info, and a thing to look forward to. so get it.

this is probaly one of the best sagas in the the series. Goku and Gohan finaly come out of the Hyperbolic Time chamber where they have been training. Not only that but Gohan is now a Super Saiyah-jin. they learn of what has been going while they have been gone including the tournament that cell has planned. this is probly the best saga because its the only saga where you see young gohan as a Super Saiyan. you will diffinaly want to add this one to your collection.
