4 out of 5 stars Great, if you don't mind the frustration...   September 1, 2007

DOA is a different kind of fighting game. It's not just about combos and quick reaction times, it's about fighting with strategy and learning to anticipate your opponent's moves.

The core of this game is fantastic. It consists of a seemingly simple system of attacks (punches, kicks, etc), throws, and counters. Counters beat attacks, throws beat counters, and attacks beat throws. It's a rock-paper-scissors affair. However, the gameplay has far more depth to it than that, which results more in "feeling" the game out more than practicing combos and timing over and over again like most fighters.

However, the game's frustration level, in accordance with Team Ninja's style, is at times simply overbearing. Sometimes it seems like the CPU 'cheats' because it can anticipate your moves waaay too well. And the end boss character is one of the most frustrating bosses I've ever fought.

The only thing left to cover is the online play, which is fantastic only if you never get tired of ninjas. Sure, it is true that there is no such thing as a truly balanced fighting game. But Team Ninja is so obviously dipping the favor towards the ninja characters (4 in total), that it's somewhat pointless to bother playing as any other character. You'll see what I mean after you've fought Ryu Hayabusa for the 70th time in a row...



5 out of 5 stars One of the best fighting games I have ever played   August 14, 2007

Well I have played this a lot lately, and well what can I say this game is a must-have for your x360 collection.

This game is hard, I mean the normal setting is hard, and learning to play will be a pain if you have never played another DoA game. But that's what really makes the game fun, to be able to say that you can finish history mode or even time attack without losing once to the boss... that's just great.

Overall is a great game and I recommend you get it, there's still plenty people playing on Live and well for the price this is one of the best purchases you can make for you x360.

I love the Dead or Alive series! Dead or Alive 3 and 4 are the best. Dead or Alive 4 is the best Xbox 360 fighting game and has superior graphics to even PS3 games. This is an amazing game! The online play is fun and it flows smoothly. Buy This game you won't regret it!

This is the worst fighting game I have ever played.

The graphics are nice, the controls are simple. The frustration level is through the roof. At many points you may as well set the controller on the floor as you get locked into seeming endless combos by your opponents, unable to do anything. They will constantly grab you, constantly counter you, and there's not a thing you can do to stop it. If you are not a vetran of the pervious titles, do not attempt to play this game as there is no learning curve.

I liked this game at first but it gotten boaring, its to easy to short and the same as the other dead or alive games. The graphics is good but the rest is the same like the other DOA games, only two new characters in this game but thats it. The combos are good but it lowers the opponiets bar to quick cause the attacks is to powerful, like virtua fighter, tekken, street fighter, and this one. This game gets real boaring after awhile so this is an okay game.
