Dragon Ball Super: Beerus starts on October 11, once again retelling the Battle of Gods arc. In this saga, Goku achieves Super Saiyan God, allowing him to put up a fight against Beerus. While this form is cool as hell, it is far from the most powerful Saiyan transformation, especially when you consider the multiverse. In Dragon Ball releases like Xenoverse and Heroes, Goku, Vegeta, and others unlock forms so broken they can neverappear in the official series.
Look, I know that Dragon Ball tends to hit the "transform" button a bit too often, and the extended universe is particularly guilty of cycling through power-ups. However, I'm apparently easy to please, as I always get a bit excited whenever Goku tries out a new hairstyle. All these Saiyan transformations are introduced in games, and none of them are canon. They are still awesome, though.
OK, let's get through the most basic Saiyan transformation: the evil one. In the Xenoverse games, Towa and Demigra find ways to put characters under their spell, activating what is known as "Villainous Mode". For the most part, they target villains like Frieza, Cell, Majin Buu, and Super 17, but they also get a couple of Z Fighters. Vegeta, Gotenks, Trunks, Gohan, Broly, and Raditz all enter Villainous mode at one point or another.
This form goes through a couple of stages, with the final one elevating the character into true "Supervillain" territory. Honestly, this transformation isn't particularly exciting or original, and the Saiyans don't look all that different beyond changing the colors of their aura and eyes. Still, Villainous Mode boosts its victims' power by quite a bit.
Although not yet adapted into the anime, Vegeta transcends Super Saiyan Blue in the Dragon Ball Super manga, achieving Ultra Ego, which taps into his unquestionable arrogance and anger. But for my money, the Saiyan Prince's most visually striking transformation doesn't even happen in the official story.
Dragon Ball Heroes introduces an ancient Saiyan called Cumber, whose overwhelming Ki influences anyone who touches it, turning them into berserk versions of themselves. Basically, they lose all sense of reason and start attacking everyone. In the game's promotional anime, this happens to Goku and Vegeta at the same time, though it lasts only a couple of minutes.
Later, Vegeta comes into contact with the evil Ki again and goes berserk, only for the prince to preserve his consciousness and stay completely in control. Through Broly and Kale, Dragon Ball shows both the strengths and weaknesses of Saiyan berserkers, and this form lets Vegeta keep the former and eliminate the latter.
