Why did Zidane have a tail?
I seriously wondered about this while I played through the game, but I never got around to finishing it because I just thought this game was so horrible (no offense to those out there who are fans of this game). Anyway I mean Zidane doesn't even look anything like a monkey I'm wondering if the producers of the game just put it there just for laughs or if they had an actual reason as to why they put it there.

Yea, he does have a tail because that's how the genomes are constructed. A more reasonable question would be "Why would they be given tails in their construction?" ... and to that, I have no clue at all. Balance to not fall out of their tall trees?

Its because DBZ was so popular so they decided to use a tail like the saiyans have to appeal to all the fans. No idea why the genomes are made like that ...i don't think Garland every says anything about it

Keep it on topic people. Alright. Let's hear some plausible suggestions on why.

Genomes are the missing link between humans and monkeys. That's why he has a tail.
Problem solved.

So that Zidane can escape Steiner's attempted charges by dangling from the ceiling by his tail. ...like in the Cargo Ship, if anyone remembers that scene.
