Dragon Ball Z Hyper Dimension

"One of the best fighting games on the SNES"

Dragon Ball Z Hyper Dimension, is one of my personal favorite fighting games ever! Hyper Dimension shows off nicely the power of the SNES. The graphics, characters, even the storyline rocks! You've got to play this fighting game to believe how awesome it truly is.

Gameplay: 10/10
Amazing. I have never played such an well-developed fighting game ever since Super Smash Brothers. This is one great fighting game and it was made on the SNES. It is very impressive. Flying in the sky or battling on the ground, it doesn't matter. Hyper Dimension is extremely fun. While playing with another friend, you'll simply find yourself addicted to the game. This game will last for quite sometime. Dragon Ball Z has never been this cool...

Graphics: 10/10
I dunno how to say this... The graphics in Hyper Dimension are so GOOD! I never knew that the SNES could have such great graphics. There are a lot of detail in Goku's hair and you can even see some of the characters' veins popping out when they're powering up. It's just that good. The attacks and moves look very cool. From punching and kicking to firing huge chi waves. The graphics are just overwhelming... Not to mention how nice the scenery is when you're fighing. Great backgrounds make the battlefield come to life.

Controls: 8/10
Some of the moves are just very hard to execute. I find myself smashing buttons when I just can't seem to do any moves. The attacks seem a little hard to do. You'll find yourself just pummeling your enemy by just simply punching and kicking. Practice will make this game more easier enjoyable.

Audio/Video: 9/10
The music is pretty good. Battling with certain bosses have their own little theme. Whatever the music is, it's never too horrible. The battlefield also matches up with the music. If you're fighting in a murky place, there's also some gloomy music. Everything looks like it was very well planned out.

Replayability: 10/10
Playing the 1 player battle mode is very cool and after you had enough of that, try the multiplayer. You'll be playing your friends for at least an hour. Great variety in characters. You may use the good guys as well as the bad guys from the Dragon Ball Z series.

To buy or to rent? Buy!
This game is worth it! It shows off just how awesome the old SNES console can really be. This fighting game is a very rare gem. Graphics, gameplay, everything! It is truly fantastic!

Overall: 10/10
Mostly the game is just great! I like mostly everything about it. You normally don't find much anime fighting games out there. You've just gotta play Hyper Dimension to experience it!
