History YMMV / DragonBallZSagas

* ThatOneBoss: Frieza and Cell, since, as mentioned above, you can only hurt them as a certain Super level, Super Saiyan Goku for Frieza and Super Saiyan 2 for Gohan, and they constantly spam energy attacks at you and will break the combos you use to charge your Super meter.

** Normally, the game is co-op with both players controlling one character, which would be one of the bigger selling points of it, as there aren't many other co-op ''Dragon Ball'' games. However, this breaks down in some fights which were one-on-one in canon (i.e. Goku versus Frieza): instead of rewriting the plot to include a second playable character, the two players have to control the same character with a doubled-up life bar, with the game switching between the players' on a timer. This can happen, for instance, in the middle of a combo.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: This game is generally agreed upon as being one of the worst Dragon Ball games ever for many reasons, with few redeeming factors. This game's bad decisions include: bad visuals, wonky controls, terrible enemy AI, bad retelling of the DBZ story, glitches, bad editing of the anime scenes it uses for the cutscenes, terrible choices for lines from the characters, a bad soundtrack, etc. It epitomizes the worst of the worst DBZ games.

** Super Saiyan/Namek. Powerful as it is, the forms don't last too long unless you melee enemies, and the meter sometimes runs down ''before'' you start fighting in levels where your character begins with it already done.

* PanderingToTheBase: It manages to screw it up by not having the character be the GodMode of the game as he was in his movies, but they included ''Broly'' in the game, despite his movies never being covered in the game's story mode, and, to a lesser extent, Bardock, even though ''he's'' never mentioned in the game either.

* {{Narm}}: Part of the snark bait, as the animation used from the show is in the cutscenes, but not the dub's audio, resulting in the developers having the cast record new lines for the animation, and in-game dialogue. The result is either a hilarious bit of awkward dubbing, or terrible voice acting with generic lines specifically for the game.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: This game is, generally, agreed upon as being one of the worst Dragon Ball games ever for many reasons, with no saving graces outside of some of the snark bait. This game's bad decisions include: bad visuals, terrible, wonky, controls, terrible enemy A.I., bad retelling of the DBZ story, glitches, bad editing of the anime scenes it uses for the cutscenes, terrible choices for lines from the characters, a bad soundtrack, etc. It epitomizes the worst of the worst DBZ games.

* SnarkBait: The only reason why anyone would even remotely choose to play this game, as there's enough to make fun of in a let's play, or with friends, since the game's design is too glaringly awful to be considered a good game, and actually playing the game will legitimately frustrate you to the point where you'll wanna chuck your copy into a bonfire after finishing it. Case in point, Creator/TeamFourStar's let's play of the game, where they both make fun of the game's brokenness, but groan and gripe just as much at the bullshit the game throws at them and WebVideo/ProJared's review of the game, where he laid out all of the flaws in the game perfectly.

* WhatTheHellCastingAgency: Bardock and ''Broly'', of all people, are in the game as playable characters.

* AwesomeMusic: As mediocre as the game's soundtrack is, ''Sagas'' does have some genuinely good songs, such as [[https://youtu.be/LCwTVcpaQAw the menu theme]], [[https://youtu.be/rgAJxzIgQt8 both boss]] [[https://youtu.be/Cfwo4OYdvdY themes]], and even [[https://youtu.be/vdLdG6FUsCI the battle against Perfect Cell]].
