For IGN, Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2 was reviewed by Anthony Gallegos who awarded 5.5 points out of 10 and a “Mediocre” feedback. In his review, Gallegos points out that one of the strongest points of the game are the graphics used by developers. Giving a score of 7.0 to the graphics the critic mentions in the summary that while the characters look the same as in the anime cartoon series, the --“environments are ugly”, as well as the backgrounds. The same mechanism applies to the sounds available in Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2. Giving 6.0 points for the sounds, Gallegos appreciates that the voices used on characters are “straight out of the show”, but the music affects negatively the sound score. According to the review, the game lost points because the gameplay becomes “boring for all but the most die-hard of fans".http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/113/1131658p1.html Overall for IGN’s critic
"Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2 has hours and hours of combat that only the most hardcore of fans are going to enjoy."http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/113/1131658p1.html
Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2 received the same "Mediocre" feedback from Carolyn Petit, Gamespot’s reviewer. Petit gave 5 points out of 10 mentioning in the summary that the fighting mechanism is uninteresting. The critic also believes that many features from this video game appeared in the previous title of the series. In addition to this, players may experience problems with the game’s camera which sometimes loses “sight of your opponent”. On the other hand, the critic admired the visual effects used while the character is performing a super-attack, as well as the “raging soul system” implemented by developers.http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/dragonballragingblast2/review.html
Overall, Carolyn Petit thinks that:
"When you consider the $60 asking price and how little this game adds to its predecessor, there's no reason for even the most devoted fans to spend their hard-earned money on this hollow cash-in of a sequel."http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/dragonballragingblast2/review.html
