I was totally going to get the first comment but I alt-clicked something I don't even know what and it closed the page entirely. FML. I'm just happy I get to see some boobs after that horrendous alt-click ordeal.

Wow this is as insane as Jeff was hinting about. Haven't played a DoA since 3 when I got an Xbox.

Finally! I've been waiting for this. I need to figure out if this has enough to keep me playing if I'm going to pay full price for it. I really don't want another regretful purchase like Tekken Tag 2 a few weeks ago. >.>

This game looks god-awful. Wait until it's $20 on Amazon in December.

Always good to see a Dead or Alive QL represented by a thumbnail of a woman doing a backflip over a tiger.

Is there any female character with flat chest in this game? I say like Jeff I find it distracting in games, when a fake female characters chest flab around infront of my face. If I wanna see boobs I fucking google boobs. Just BOOBS and BAM there's boobs.

Well even though I don't have a 360 most if not all games still remind you that [this game uses autosave if you see this rotating icon don't turn off you console] so I don't see the problem they just used the Xbox UI to display that.

Just going to say that I'm fine with Jeff's conclusion on the DOA game taking place on some kind of weird almost parallel universe with excessive uses of cloth physics for other things, makes more sense than the game developers behind this franchise still have no clues about some things.

The sound is... not loud enough?? Anyone else having this problem? I can barely hear them at a maxed-out volume.

Yep, sound is low and some of the audio seems out of sync.

EDIT: I don't think the audio is out of sync. The breathing noises the girl was making was confusing me in the first match. They sounded like hits when they weren't.

There's no "mystery" to be solved behind the doa boob physics, it started as a traditional anime visual gag that began in the late 80s with stuff made by studios like Gainax and was brought over in to the video game industry by japanese developers. In anime at least It was initially just suppose to be another form of exaggeration of expression, the same as the giant sweat drops, streaming fountain tears, cat faces, speed lines etc etc. By the time it was used in games however the more common use of having a female characters bits move around silly was for titilation because for some odd reason seeing boobs move all weird was something a lot of sad guys really liked apparently, and thus the "boob physics" system was born.

Agh. Wasn't gonna buy this but watching this is giving me hella nostalgia. (DoA Ultimate was the first fighting game I actually tried to play for longer than one sitting...)
