Man Heat Phalnax too strong.
Heat Phalanx got stupid in IW because of the stun changes. Son family was the best at stunning you...every single one of them had the ability to ToD you or come very close.

I figured Broly would be mid tier, he was so slow in that game. I did love Bardock in that game though, nice to see he was good.
I didn't actually know infinite world was supposed to be better than B3, visually it looks like a lazy port.

You should check out these videos displaying the best players of DBZ: Infinite World. The kid buu player is godlike.

It's actually mostly similar, outside of a lot of the animations. It's a lot better...more mobility options, ultimates outside of hyper mode, real-time ultimates, more applicable stun system, special cancels off any normal, more usage of nullification frames (Budokai's armor), etc. It's a lot better, but the stun mechanic doesn't decrease over time, and real-time ultimates are very sparing.
 
loved this game, infinite world was a bit whack with the fatigue system

Dimps needs to go back to DBZ and make Shin Budokai 3. Easily the best of the Budokai games, and also the most technical.
can you break the game down in one post? lol I am interested actually why would for example kid buu not be top tier? he seemed to have more ki and be very fast. I really wanted to play as vegito in the game but you couldn't pick the character from the characters select screen, his spirit cannon and final kamehameha, vegeta GT's final flash were one of the most godlike specials ive seen in fighting games.

Budokai 3 Kid Buu was plagued by slow starters. Being fast strings-wise was a must in that game. His jab being so slow meant his defensive game was pretty low tier, and he could be beaten to the punch really easily. He had really good range on it, however.

IW Kid Buu got Assault Rain, which is essentially Doom hidden missiles. He's still slow as shit on normals, though.

GT Vegeta in IW had really tight timing on his string cancels, but he was essentially the best defensive character in IW due to how well his P+K stuffed everything.

Last time I checked, top tier was Piccolo, Dabura, Cell, and Omega Shenron, but that might be an out-of-date list.
Piccolo, Cell and Omega are still top tier. Piccolo was the best zoner in the game with all of his long-reach strings. Omega Shenron's offense was massively unpredictable, and he had great reach due to his size. Cell had the best jab in the game alongside a strong mid-range game and the best combo ender in the game. Dabura is still in contention for top, but people aren't entirely sure. Bardock moved up shortly before the game really died out, and is arguably top tier, as well.

Villains had more ki from the start and villains like kid buu, omega shenron and janemba had almost max ki from the start. Did that mean nothing in the game? also I hated how they added in new characters in IW but removed a lot of characters as well like cell jr, uub, surpreme kai. if they made a new budokai they should definitely have them back and they should ad vegito, gogeta, evil buu and more.

And why is budokai 3's story mode not mentioned yet? definitely the best dbz story mode imo

One of the things I always wanted in a dbz budokai game was adult goku with gt uniform, the one he wore during his fight with uub in hyperbolic chamber, I know its a weird request but that outfit is godlike.

Also, Hercule being worst in the game is no joke. He is soooooooo so handicapped, it's not even funny. Alongside having a roll dodge for a teleport (which means he can't do so when juggled), he is also the only character who has less than 3 bars for a baseline, which means if he gets touched, he pretty much dies. This turns Hercule vs Bardock into one of the worst matchups in the game.

The exclusion of Uub is most surprising in IW. He had a pretty important role in GT and he was badass. If only these games had the character selection of the Tenkaichi games. Minus pointless ones like Yaijirobe (sorry fans of his, but it's true).

The baselines were a huge factor, but Kid Buu's starter problems were a huge factor in B3. In IW, he's a little better, though, due to hidden missiles lol. They literally function exactly like hidden missiles in that they still stay active once fired.

Speaking of Tenkaichi, 2 is actually pretty solid. Very playable compared to the rest of the games. Only Raging Blast 2 actually compares.

never liked tenkaichi series. also imagine adult uub in budokai 3...just thinking about how good a new budokai could be makes me crazy.
