Game modes

In the main menu today we have three sections start, add-ons and options. In addition we have the downloadable content that would bring several teachers, characters and missions. Then in the options you can change the voices of the characters to change the brightness and volume of the game. There are 5 types of races, the first would be the monster race or Majin that is the race of Buu, then there is the race saiyan, the earthlings, the namekianos as Piccolo, and finally the race of Frieza.

argument

The beginning of the story is about the race you choose, for example if you choose the race saiyan you appear in Capsule Corporation, as if you choose Freezer race you appear in your ship. It will call you the Kaio-shin of time, and it will send you to look for the old Kaio-shin, you will pass by a shop where a boy has a question symbol with red background, you will have to talk to him and he will tell you to go to the receiver. There you will find a girl who will send you to the top where you will finally find him.

When you talk to him, the Kaio-shin of time will come and he will give you two options, the first would be the old Kaio-shin, which would be the mission and the second would be as a mini tutorial to learn to play.

After having passed the mini tutorial or starting the mission, once you start it will appear Raditz, Son Goku and Piccolo, then Piccolo attacks Raditz with his beam of light and Raditz is given a fruit and becomes stronger and dodges it when in the History gives him and he dies slowly. Then you appear and you fall in a ridiculous way and start fighting with Son Goku when you defeat him Piccolo finishes him with an even more powerful beam of light that he can not dodge because Son Goku grabs him from behind, but unfortunately, he also dies to save to humanity. The second mission is to help Son Goku to defeat Vegeta and Nappa, but first you have to defeat the Saibaman seeds that Nappa plants to stop Goku. But while your character perceives a negative force then he arrives at the place and finds Turles and Goku talking, so your character will automatically fight Turles.
