However, the opening theme to the first game is the TV series' second opening, ' (featured in the Japanese version; the English version includes a different, non-vocal song), which is also performed by Kageyama. The 'Budokai Tenkaichi' title of the North American version is a rearranged version of Tenkaichi Budokai ( 天下一武道会, Tenka'ichi Budōkai, roughly 'Strongest Under the Heavens Martial Arts Tournament').

Despite its title, the 'Budokai Tenkaichi' series is not a continuation of the series. In addition to a completely different game engine, the game was developed by an entirely different company. The series are also titled differently from the Budokai series in Japan.
Were they true Budokai games, the first game in the series would have been Dragon Ball Z 4 in Japan. Speculation on the English re-title is that Atari chose to market the game as part of the Budokai series in order to capitalize on a pre-existing market of fans already familiar with said game series.

In battle, players can build up their gauge to execute various techniques such as the Power Guard, which reduces the damage characters take by 1/4. The Ki gauge can also be used to use moves referred to as Blast 2 skills. Every character has a unique set of Blast 2 skills that allow the character to use special moves such as Ki blasts and physical attacks. Characters also have a self-recharging numeric gauge called Blast Stock that allows players to use techniques called Blast 1 skills. Blast 1 skills usually have a supportive effect such as allowing characters to regain health or immobilize the enemy. Players can also power up into a mode called Max Power Mode normally by building up their Ki beyond full at the cost of Blast Stock bars.
Max Power Mode makes the character that initiated it faster, stronger, and able to use moves that are exclusive to the mode. One of these moves is the Ultimate Blast which is usually the most powerful move a character has, though use of any Blast 2 skill or the Ultimate Blast immediately ends Max Power Mode. Game modes The story mode of the series (called Z Battle Gate, Dragon Adventure, and Dragon History in each installment, respectively) progresses similarly to the story modes in previous games. Players can select battles from different sagas and proceed through the story of Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and even several. The Dragon Balls can be acquired through story mode by destroying the environment in battle; however, the player can only keep the Dragon Ball they find if the battle is won.

Since characters can fly, characters can leave the perimeter of the arena, but will be called for ringout if they touch the ground. There are no restrictions to but the last match of the Cell Games mode is always against Perfect Cell.
In Tenkaichi 1 winning the tournaments gave players a Z-Item prize while in Tenkaichi 2, players would receive money which in turn would be used on Z-Items.

Didn't I say that link proved nothing 10 posts before anyone else caught on? That article was written 2 months ago and has been posted on various sites. I read it 2 months ago on a different site. No quote from Donny Clay ever mentions anything, not a single word, about there being a BT4. It seems to me hardly anyone even checked that link for quite some time All Donny Clay ever said was that the next DBZ game, whatever it may be, may have features that been requested but weren't able to be done, such as a CAC.
The Tenkaichis and Budokais were both good DBZ series, but unless the next gen will have a create-a-character, I don't think I'll buy it. I know, they have to require the rights to characters and such from Toriyama before they can make a create a character feature in the game, but I'm hopeful. Even still, if Create a Character were to be confirmed, I'd have to rent it first, just to make sure it wasn't a half-assed create a character mode with like 4 options for each thing or something. Well, it's still a ways off no matter what, so no use thinking about it now.
