This game rocks! You can play as Trunks, Gohan, Goku, Vegeta or Picolo. There is a better battle system than the first, more attacks and you learn a move that turns you into a super-saiyan! There's this new system for flying( don't worry, it still has the old one.) where you go to a map screen a press where you want to go. This game follows the Trunks, Android and Cell sagas and is longer than the first game. Hope that this review helps!

if you were angry with the plot and storyline in legacy of goku 1, and how he learned solar flare from a old man when its tien attack that he makes up, but anyway on with the new game. Dragonball z the legacy of goku 2 is a fun action-pack RPG that lets you play the game as goku, piccolo, gohan, vegeta, or trunks, with each having their own special melee attack and special energy or "Ki" attack. Also Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, and Trunks and change into Super Sayians which is a nice touch, different from the first game, although, none of them could do that in the first game except Goku, in the frezia saga, but they didn't do so well putting that in except the very last 5 minutes of legacy 1, but who noticed anyway. As i started the game i noticed that it challenges you much more than in the first, and there is a lot more to do, and the game follows the t.v. show much better than the first. As you go through the trunks, android, and cell saga's you gain levels and become more powerful and meet all your buddies. This is defently a good game, and has a lot of improvements from the first. At the price that it is, i'd go out and buy if you already don't have it. Have a good time playing the game and i hope this helped out everybody! thanks

This game is SO awesome! It's so much better than the first LOG game in every way! This time, you can play as (and this is the order you unlock them in) Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta, Trunks and Goku, and in the beginning, you play through a VERY shortened version of the History of Trunks that teaches you how to fight and stuff. You play through the Trunks Saga up to Cell Games, and there are SO many side quests, such as training with Master Roshi to achieve a character's Special Melee Attack, getting the Scouter and Enhanced Scouter (you get the Enhanced Scouter near the end of the game), heck, even finding an old man's Fish Bait gets you 1 out of the 25 Golden Capsules you need to find for Dr. Briefs! I highly recommend this game to anyone.

P.S.-Theres a bonus feature in the game! If you beat the Cell Games with Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta, and Trunks at level 50 with their trophies (you don't have to worry about Gokus trophy because you automatically get his after the Cell Games), you can play as Hercule! Get him to level 50 and go to ZZTV Studios in West City to see the Alternate Ending to the game!

I have this game and it is challenging and fun at the same time. The graphics are not much of an improvement, but the fun factor is. You get to play as Vegeta, Piccolo, Goku, Trunks, or Gohan. You have to start out as Gohan and then release the others. You can use way more attacks than the first. With Piccolo, you can use the Special Beam Cannon! This game is so good, even people who don't like Dragon Ball Z should buy it.

Oh my god! This game rocks! It soars over The first Dragon Ball Z legacy of Goku. Even though that game was amazing too. This game is so addicting. It is fun enough to run around and punch air. Hahah. But once you get all five characters Goku / Vegeta/ Gohan / Trunks / Piccolo, that is when the game really shines.

The fun thing is the Super(Saiyan) for all the characters. They all go supersaiyan. For piccolo it is Super namek. It has the same effect. To bad the energy doesnt recharge fast. You cant fly either unless you step on these things.

The graphics on this get a 5/5. Stunning for GBA. The Kameamea, special beam cannon. Big Bang Attack. Spirit bomb. Super saiyan. All of that stuff look just like you want them to.

The gameplay gets an 5/5. The story mode is amazing. The quests are fun. You always feel good when you level up your character in this one. The character gates(gates that you have to be a certain character and a certain level toget through) really inspire you to try hard to get to the certain level. The moves your characters can perform are amazing too. You have your special melee attack. Example: Spin Kick for piccolo.
And keep pressing the melee button and your character will give the badguy a left, thena right. Then maybe a couple kicks. And possibly a kameamea or special beam cannon that goes on for 30 seconds. Much better then the short kameamea or the always right punch from the first Legacy of Goku. Goku would only punch with one arm all the time. Now this time you can give them the left, the right. The kick in the can. The super multi punch.

The story gets a 5/5 Die Freiza die! Ahahah level one gohan! Die Freiza. Oh it was just a dream. Oh no now freiza is coming.

It is an amazing story line even though it only goes up to the cell games. It gives you much more time to appreciate your Super(saiyan) abilities unlike the battle with freiza in The first legacy of goku. Even though you do alot of stuff that never happened in the show.(example :Oh no! Shut down Vinnie's annoying music ...or Defeat the Triceratops King) All the quests addict you. And if you get stuck. You get even more compelled to beat it.

Control 5/5 Well, just hold down a button. Or to change to a different beam press a button. Press another button to fire your beam. Move around with pad. Use 1 button for punching and your super melee move. use one button for your energy blast and all your other special energy attacks. Even use that button for going Super. Easy control. Gotta love those type of games.

Sound 5/5 should be 10/5 Instead of the Dinky Pinky beeping music from games like mario on the first nintendo like the first Legacy of goku had. You get nearly the full blast of the trunks saga music. You get that real sounding Evil Cell music and everything. It is AMAZING! Somtimes instead of buying the music cds you should just get a gameboy sp and hook up to surround sound through the headphone plug and let it lay for 18 hours while your character stays in a safe spot and you get the beautiful stunning DBZ Music. Even though there really isnt any voice in this game. You dont need it. You got everything you need in the chat box or the music :).

Over all 110/100 :)

Even if youve only seen one episode of DBZ and that 1 episode might be when Goku meets bulma. This game is for you.
In fact, if you dont know much about DBZ. This game will make it all understandable. It is a must BUY!

(And normally i dont write such long reviews, if i write somthing this long. Im married to the product and i cherish it and hug it an you get the picture)

While Dragon Ball Z Legacy of Goku was a fine example of a simple Action RPG, it did have it's flaws. Those flaws were that you had no idea how badly you were damaging your foes, the damage ratio to you was out of whack, it was incredibly linear, and all the bosses were pathetically easy (Solar Flare, Energy Attack/Kamehameha) and you only played as Goku (thus a huge chunk of story was removed). I am glad to say that most of the problems this time around were fixed.

The story behind legacy of Goku 2 is that Trunks arrives from the future to warn the heroes that a pair of Androids will arrive in three years and basically destroy the world. He gives Goku some medicine so that he does not die prematurly and then takes off so they can prepare. Three years later a set of androids appear but they are not the ones trunks had fought, those appear later along with a third. Soon the androids are face a threat called cell along with the heroes and eventually cell creates a tournament.

Like I said most of the problems with the first were corrected. Now with the use of a scouter you can examine the strengths of everything in the game, from cell down to a little butterfly. When you attack or are being hit a red nuber appears that basically sasy how much life was removed. So damage ratio was greatly even out. You play much of the game as Gohan, Piccolo, and Vegeta with Trunks and Goku playable at the end. The linear factor was removed as with a world map you can go wherever you want.

However some problems remain. While the bosses are smarter this time around, ultimatly they do revert back to a basic pattern. Get to close they punch, stand to far they shoot energy. How you decide to fight is up to you. Also the flight meter which provied a quick escape in Legacy 1 was removed. So no longer if you are getting your ass kicked and need a quick escape can you.

Overall Legacy of Goku 2 is a solid game that is a lot of fun. it has it's share of problems but what game doesn't. Overall this is a solid title to own on the GBA.

Okay the reviewer BLADE only gave this game one star. Well he is either bad at judging things, to stupid to appreciate good games or and idiot that isnt worth living to waste resources. I reccomend that you should stay away from this BLADE guy. I mean you play from the trunks saga to the cell games! And there are 5 plyable charectars. BLADE also says it was to hard because of unfaur battles. Good games are supposed to be challenging in some points otherwise you would defeat every game when you first get them. BLADE must enjoy cracking his head on a rock because this will be the second best american dbz game yet right after budokai(hey BLADE did you give that a bad review to?)

If you've played the first, you know that 2 is going to be awesome!! Because, the first is okay(if you use *the invincibility code!!). Back to 2! First of all, its longer, its easier, better graphics, more characters, new moves, 2x more levels ,and more, I think! If 1 was a must have, 2 is waiting for you!! My favorite character: Trunks. My favorite energy move: Spirit Bomb. My favorite melee move: Flurry Punch. My favorite status picture: Trunks' first Saiyan mode picture.

*Still want to know the invincibility code(for 1st game only!!!)? It is:up,down,left,right,a,b, on the intro movie. It'll make life easier especially when fighting Frieza!!

Well Bombshell, I liked this game too. I liked it much better then first legacy. It was not as simple, and seem to have a better game length then the first. I am glad to see you seem to like DBZ as much as I do... perhaps a psychic link, lol.

This game is so great because in the beggening your kid trunks in the future your with big gohan and your learning how to fight! like a real man and Gohan was trying to get trunks to super sayian and when gohan dies the cool music comes on and you turn super sayian!!! Although the game is cool and all but it is so easy I beat this game about 15 times! And also when you start the game you start off in gohans dream where freeza comes and all. You can play as Gohan ( witch is my favorite and strongest character in the game!) and Piccolo, Vegeta, Trunks, and Goku battling the villans for the world! when you beat the game trunks goes back to his time and defeats the androids and cell there. Also when you do that you get to play with Hercule get him to level 50 and go to this building I think is called zzztv or something. I am a big fan of this game and I reccomend it to all DragonBallZ fans. Oh one more thing there is one more villan in the game he is freeza's brother Cooler!!!!!! You fight him on new namek. And thats why i like this game sooo much!
