It doesn't look like they put too much thought into the book!2
OK, to hand it to you, this guide stinks. The author was too lazy to put the other forms of some characters like Super Buu's absorption forms. The strategies they offer don't really halp you use the character. Also, the illustrated super moves' pictures aren't in the right place. For instance, The pictures for Goku's kaoken attack are in the boxes that his kamehamaha are supposed to be and the kamehahama is where the kaoken attack is supposed to be shone. They say that there are tips for customizing but they didn't offer any tips. The storymode strategies were basically the same. On survival battles hug the border until time runs out and for regular fights, use air combos. Heck they don't even tell you how to effectively use an air combo. Air Combos are quite hard to pull off but the guide didn't help me at all and I finally figured them out in the training mode of the game. The game guide's move lists for every single character as the guide's back cover says doesn't include all 120+ characters. It totally skips characters like Gogeta SS and Vegeta Monkey so you don't know what moves they have and how their air combos are performed. They include an items list which is probably the only accurate thing in the book. It tells you where to get the items to fuse into what characters. It tells you things like where to get the power ball potara to use it to fuse into any monkey form as long as you have the character like turles. The game guide says something about customizing but doesn't tell you how or which modes to do so. They don't tell you what you need to do to customize. I'll give you a hint, you need to play in Ultimate Battle Z and equipt at least one item in the character slots for that item to level up when you finish each of the ladder matches. The game guide didn't even say this. They just expect you to find out yourself. Many of Prima's guides are like this. The screenshots flipflopped into the wrong place. I believe Prima doesn't give too much accurate info. Brady Games on the other hand does. Too bad they don't have a Brady Games guide for this game. If you have any games that have a Brady Game guide, get the guide with Brady Games instead of wasting your money on a Prima Guide. Those guides are a lot more accurate that Prima.

Overall: very bad guide. Doesn't offer any game help.

Good: Item list that tells you where to find each item

Bad: Everything Else: Moves lists don't cover all characters, Strategies in story mode are the same for every battle, The screenshots for different moves aren't in the right places, Too lazy to put strategies down for the forms of different characters-just puts strategies for the standard form, The strategies are not helpful, and don't include any information on how to raise power levels (customizing) or where to level up, and don't include character weaknesses and strengths like Brady Games does.

Did they even play the Wii version?1
Pretty terrible guide for the Wii version of the game - none of the controls they list for the special moves are correct. They list all the items you can get, but don't say what any of them do. They don't even list seperate moves for the different forms of the characters, which account for nearly half the characters in the game.

Dragon Ball Z Budolai Tenkaichi 2 game guide5
My son is really into these games. He always has to have the guides to go with them. I ordered this from Amazon and not only got a better price than anywhere else I looked, it also shipped very quickly.
