As a DBZ fan, I'd like to see this thread flourish a lot more. Come on, there's got to be some DBZ game fans out there!
To get things started, I'll go over briefly what is already known about the game:
Confirmed Characters & Transformations:
Goku (Duh), Kaio-ken, SSJ, SSJ2, SSJ3, SSJ4
Vegeta, SSJ, SSJ2, SSJ4
Gogeta, SSJ, SSJ4
Imperfect Cell, 2nd Form, Perfect (maybe more?)
Freeza, 2nd "Giant" form, 3rd "alien" form, Final Form. (Maybe more) Cyborg
Coola, Final Form, Metal.
Broli, Super Saiyan, Legendary Super Saiyan
"Fat" Majin Boo
Gohan (11 years old), SSJ, SSJ2
That's all that's been physically seen from demos and screenshots, but naturally we can expect much more characters. I'm pretty confident we'll also have:
Yamcha
Kuririn (Or Krillin for you dubbies. wink )
Tenshinhan (Tien)
Piccolo
Raditz
Nappa
Reccoome
Captain Ginyu
Future Trunks
Android #16
#17
#18
Mr. Satan
Great Saiyaman
Gohan (adult)
Goten
Kid Trunks
Kaioshin
"Super" Boo
"Kid" Boo
Gotenks
Vegetto
Dimps also claims they were going to add more characters, plus bring back all characters from the first two games (Highly doubtful, since they said that about Budokai 2, and it never happened). If that's true though, that will add:
Gohan (5 years old)
Dodoria
Zarbon
Android #19
#20 (Dr. Gero)
Videl
Dabura
Gotan (Goku + Mr. Satan fusion)
Yamhan (Yamcha + Tenshinhan fusion)
Kibitokai (Kaioshin + Kibit)
So far there's a lot of rumors circulating around about the unknown characters. Gamespro cited (without proof) that all applicable characters would have a GT alternate costume. So the teenage GT Trunks would be an alternate costume for young Trunks. Gamepro, as well as a few "annonymous sources" claim there will also be:
Bardock
Oob
Pan (I hope!)
Majoob (Oob + Majin Boo)
Baby (complete with "possesion technique" wink
Golden Ozaru Baby Vegeta (Non-playable boss)
Yi Xing Long (Omega Shenron)
That's all I have to inform you on characters, until Dimps throws us another bone that is. I know a bit more on the game, but I'll post that tommorow. Let's get this thread stickied!
