Dragonball Z Shin Budokai: Another Road

This game is for the handheld PSP. it follows a new storyline for dragonball z. we've all seen the end of dragonball z. goku and vegeta defeat majin buu and save earth. but let's rewind for a second. back during the cell saga in an alternate future timeline goku was killed off by a deadly heart virus. one by one the z fighters were killed off by the androids created by doctor gero. gohan, goku's son, was the last but inevitably was also felled by the androids. trunks, vegeta's son and gohan's disciple, then had an idea. to go back in time and stop goku from dying. this way he would be able to stop the androids from killing the rest of the z fighters. so he does this and succeeds. trunks then returns to his own time and thanks to his training in the past with goku and the z fighters he easily defeated the androids of his era. thus restoring peace. now this is where the game begins. it's been a few years since the androids destroyed everything. the towns have been rebuilt and the world martial arts tournament is about to begin. suddenly a magician named babidi and his henchman dabura comes and starts terrorrizing the town. trunks tries to stop them but proves useless. he learns of their plot to revive one of the most powerful beings in existance. majin buu. knowing that he can't possibly stop this by himself he once again decides to head to the past to recruit the z warriors. appearences are made by old enimies and allies alike like broly cooler and even Bardock. this game's in-depth original storyline earns it a 5 out of 5 rating. a must have for today's gamer on the go.
