Super Dragon Ball Z Cheats

Though not a new classic, the introduction of legendary Street Fighter II designer Noritaka Funamizu makes Super DBZ at least a decent departure from the Budokai series.

    How to Get Skill Icons

    In original and Z-Survivor mode you see sometimes that computers have symbols or you don't have your ultimate move. That's because you need to skill up (this requires a character card). To do this you need to fill up the experience bar until you see an orange square on the radar, then go to customize. Click on your character card and then press train new skill. You have to pick a skill, and be wise about what you pick, because after you pick it it's there permanantly.

    There are three type of skills move: (green) which gives you a new technique; (blue) which gives you a boost on attack, defense or action gauge; and (system) which does something to your attacks or action gauge.

    When you have all blackspaces with icons you cannot skill up anymore.

    Super Kamehameha

    The same as the kamehameha, except instead of pressing Down Down Right Right once, you do the sequence twice, then press Triangle.

    Kamehameha!

    To do a Kamehameha, press Down, Down, Right, Right, Triangle really fast. Keep the triangle pressed to charge up the kamehameha.

    Easily Defeat the Easier AIs

    The easiest way to win any battle is to repeatedly use the strong Homing attack (R2). Catch your opponent off guard as soon as the fight begins, and continue to attack with R2 until you're movement gauge is depleted. Even if they block a few, eventually they'll let down their guard. While you're waiting for your movement gauge to refill, use your special attacks and fire ki attacks toward them. Once you can go back to using the Homing attack, start pounding them again.

    Gain Dragon Balls, BP quickly

    If all you want to do is quickly grab some Dragon Balls, in the Game Settings, set the game to easy, the damage to high, and the rounds to one. It shouldn't be too hard to power through Original mode and collect all seven relatively quickly. Trying to collect them in VSurvivor is really more of a hassle.

    A quick way to get BP for any character is to play one character in Original or Survivor until you've got him up to around 1 million BP- try doing the same thing I mentioned to do for collecting dragon balls. Once you have a pretty powerful character, go into versus mode and select the character you want to level up as player one, and the powerful character as player two. Pound your powerful character into the ground round after round to gain a decent amount of exp each time. The downsides: It's tedious, so you might just want to play the Original and VSurvivor modes so you can actually enjoy it, and your powerful character will lose some BP at the end of each fight. However, if you just want the exp, this is one way to do it.
