Yu Yu Hakusho Ghost Files Dark Tournament PlayStation 2 PS2. No Manual Untested

The beginning of what could have been a great series of games
YYH: Dark Tournament is a fighting game created for the titular franchise, Yu Yu Hakusho. It covers events leading up to and during the Dark Tournament part of the series. It plays and looks similar to the Budokai series made for Dragonball Z.
It’s shortcomings are mostly in the form of what could have been. Had this series continued and gone on to cover the entirety of the show, these games would be as notable as the budokai series. From what I understand, it did get one more entry, though it was sadly JPN exclusive.

A challenging and yet rewarding experience
Dark Souls and the like are as close as you can get to a vintage tabletop rpg experience on a console.

A game of mixed success
DBZ: KAKAROT is a title best enjoyed as a novelty for what it is, that being an immersive action adventure title set in the Dragonball Z universe and recreating events from the manga/series.
However, that doesn’t mean it’s an unmitigated success either. This is not a true open world DBZ rpg, as it was marketed and promised to be. Rather, this is an action rpg that makes compromises at many turns. The largest compromise and most glaring fault of the game is combat. Rather than being open world action combat like it should be, the game jumps into a weird combat phase that suddenly gives you access to your fists and ki and turns the game into an arena fighter (not unlike Xenoverse).
Thankfully, I picked the game up cheap, so it’s been worth the money I paid. That said, I hope if they do make a sequel, they learn their lesson from this game. What the world wants and was expecting from this title, is a 3D and open-world version of the Legacy Of Goku series.
