8. Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku 2
To put it nicely, Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku was a highly flawed game. That’s why Legacy of Goku 2 stands out all the more for how much better it is in comparison.
Adapting the Android and Cell sagas, the game allows players to dive into the role of five of the Z Fighters for a 2D action RPG experience much in line with the first game.
Unlike the first game though, most everything has been overhauled to make the experience as enjoyable as possible. The art is more vibrant and lively, with perfectly recaptured environments and set pieces from the series.
Enemies recoil and fly back from punches, objects rattle and crumble from the characters’ attacks and 16-bit synth tunes accompany the player’s adventures perfectly.
The limited scope of what the game covered as well as some playtime padded by grinding did bring down the experience some, but overall it was a fitting step forward for the Legacy of Goku series that would pave the way for an exception conclusion.
