    I wish I could get this game, time-travel back to uni, and play it long into the night with my housemates the way we used to with DoA Ultimate (DoA2). The very pinnacle of the fighting game genre.

    I´ve been waiting this game for years, finally we´ll enjoy this series again!

    DOA 5 looks good.
    It's not that flashy but has just the right amount of zing to it.

    DOA is the best balance between easy to pick up and getting very technical.

    Im curious to how the QTEs work. Im worried about it. But there is a chance they can make it work. Cant tell yet. Only when I have the controller in my hand will I know if it feels cool. Loving the character models. Loved the old ones (not sure why so many people disliked them) But its a nice change that I think was needed.

    cant wait i just hope the game can still kick ass with out Tomonobu Itagaki in my book doa is the top fighting game its all about skill nothing more

    Great reporting. But since this dude is obviously not a fan, keep your opinions to yourself. I don't care what u find annoying. Your not a fan. Respect the franchise. Maybe if you didn't look like such a HOMO it would b better. Future reference. opinions to yourself.

    Totally agree with kozakon
    DOA has the best fighting fluidity and movement realism of every fighting game ever made.
    I just hope that it still be there on this new version...otherwise I'll still play with my PS2 version of DOA Hardcore! lolll

    By the way....can't wait to see the lovely Kasumi again....hummmmm ))

    in my opinion dead or alive will always the best fighting game ever.

    looks pretty sweet. love countering fools.

    really annoying commercial and i'm starting to wonder if these guys get paid per minute talked or per word or something, less talk, more action or at least get a babe to do the talking :p the game footage looks great tho

    The characters sweat...Profusely...Man we are in for some Dead Or alive mixed with dead or alive extreme voleyball action

    In all honesty, I like every single thing he mentioned. Even the falling objects bit.

    If not for those lovely girls I'd skip this game in a heartbeat. QTEs do not belong in a fighting game, there's enough guesswork to begin with! Go online and watch people throw out 3 completely random counters in a row without you even attacking.

    so....since when ''the classic doa'' is very slow??? what?!? has this guy ever played a doa game before this?

  • eoj

    Posted Dec 9, 2011 8:48 pm GMT

    I like that the characters look like full 3-d models instead of cartoonny. What i mean is that they look realistic.

    this game will be perty & fun, give u a break from SCV on another note: where can i get that fireplace screensaver?

    Falling debris that does damage? No fair. I might be skipping this game. I'll wait for the review before I decide to pick it up or not.
