WHAT 9000?! DBZ: Burst Limits butchers the greatest meme in history
by CyberneticTigerZ, 06/26/2008

[As originally posted on Destructoid]

I'm one of those purists. When the original voice actors for Dragon Ball Z got replaced with a new set of voice actors half way through the Freeza saga, I was pissed. The original voices were perfect, especially Piccolo's and Vegeta's. Eventually, I got used to them, but I would never forget the original cast.

Here we are today, with the latest Dragon Ball Z game where they've gone and recreated scenes from the series. One of the most pivotal scenes in Internet meme history was recreated in Burst Limit, and well, it just doesn't work out. Take a look for yourself.

This just makes you wonder: Had these people been the original voice actors, would Kajetokun been the Internet superstar that he is today?

And while we're talking about Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit, go enter our OVER 9000!!!! contest over at Destructoid where you can win the game, an Xbox 360 and more!
