1:08-1:13 confirms that this game will piss a lot of people off. Is that huge finishing move even counteractable?

Peaceful_Jelly4576d ago (Edited 4576d ago )

and what about Hayabusa's shinkuu HADOUUUKEEEENN!

Tanir4576d ago

u obviously never played doa4, or ninja gaiden 2 lol

Schism204576d ago

yea just dont let him do the finishing move lol.

GSpartan7774576d ago (Edited 4576d ago )

I don't think it is. Personally I think it's just a more extreme version than just pushing the character to another part of the stage. Like kicking them through the window to the lower floor. If you look closely the moment Ryu impact the wall, it switches to different scene. Maybe its coded that if it reads that you will die on fall impact, it does a cool finishing move like that.

CodeNameTBW4576d ago

omg looks just like all the other doa's b4 it i will not be getting it 4 sure

Tanir4576d ago

wtf? coming from a person who only plays COD?

noob lol.

no fighting game has enviorments like this, NONE

CodeNameTBW4576d ago

wait wait i don't even play COD i play all types of games but not that and DOA is a button masher and counter friendzy since DOA 2 so i don't know what you are talking about yo. I'll take VF5 over DOA anyday ask anyone

jc485734576d ago (Edited 4576d ago )

you guys will be surprised that I bought the 360 just for the DOA games that never made it to the ps3. I don't even have a hard drive yet to play xbox games.

van-essa4576d ago (Edited 4576d ago )

I bought a X360 just for DOA4 as well. And of course I'll be getting this one the day it releases. I just hope they don't dumb the online down because it's not exclusive anymore (Dark Souls I'm looking at you). DOA 4, 5 years after it's release is still the best online fighter ever made.

humbleopinion4576d ago

Not surprised at all. I didn't buy the 360 just for it, but I did buy the dreamcast in the past just for DOA2. It's the best fighting series in my opinion, but I am afraid on how Tecmo will handle it now that itagaki is gone.

gamingdroid4576d ago

Anyone else able to follow what is going on?

All I see is some flashy moves that I can't tell what is going on, and the occasional slow down to highlight something.

Didn’t Expect To See You Here: 5 Influential Fighting Game Guest Characters

Trevor Walker said: Fighting games have always been able to simultaneously experiment and innovate while staying true to their roots in the best of ways. Mechanics change, crossovers take place, and evolution occurs. One of the best examples of all three can be seen in the coveted guest character.

Dead or Alive 5 - 10 Years of Free-to-Play

Dead or Alive 5 debuted 10 years ago today, ushering in a new era of AAA free-to-play gaming which has since become commonplace.

Glemt567d ago

I really wish "free-to-play" got a different name. Because, yeah, you can play (part of) the game for free, but then they hypercharge you for DLC. Nearly 1000 credits to get all the DLC? Damn.

neutralgamer1992566d ago

Exactly give me a complete bundle

MadLad566d ago

You get the fighting game.
They make you pay for the bikinis and booty shorts.

ApocalypseShadow567d ago

Worse decision ever for the gamer. Over emphasis on fan service nonsense and micro transactions than making a great fighting game.

Use to love the game as a Virtual Fighter offshoot and competitor to VF and Tekken. Won't touch this current incarnation with a 10 foot pole. You know there was something wrong when they tried to charge for hair color.

spicelicka567d ago

I wish it wouldn't be called "fan service" anymore. It's of service to no one, it's just exploiting our perverted nature blatantly, but then again people who fall for it can't really complain.

MadLad566d ago

Exactly.
People complain about the dlc, but you get the actual game.
You're paying to look at their bodies.

Silly gameAr566d ago

I have no problem whatsoever with the fanservice. My problem was the endless, expensive packs of pointless costumes that people loved to buy apparently.

lucian229566d ago

Don't be a cry baby. Go play another game if you don't like fan service. Not every game needs to be woke trash.

DOA only fell because of overpriced dlc

Silly gameAr566d ago

Not every comment needs to bring up woke when there is no wokeness going on. I wish they would ban the word woke from the face of the planet.

lucian229565d ago (Edited 565d ago )

You sound "woke" yourself, crying and wanting more cancel culture. That's the problem with you people, you don't like something and just want to cancel it.

Woke is now a day a synonym for social justice Warrior. It's people who cry that something is offensive and use cancel culture to destroy something they don't like...... Sorry but it applies when people complain about boobs

isarai567d ago (Edited 567d ago )

Do people really not realize there was a full release of this game? I've seen this pop up a few times and it always baffles me that people talk as if DOA5 was only F2P. I still have the Last Round disc that includes all characters, maps and most outfits

HeliosHex566d ago

Truly the best in the series. If you only want one DOA this is the one to get right here.

Did Jonathan Holmes just say that the DOA games promote beating of women?

I (Robin Ek, TGG) was just informed that it appears as if Jonathan Holmes (writer for Nintendo Force and Destructoid) have stated that the DOA series promotes beating of women. So, here's my take on the matter.

SaveFerris2600d ago

Oh my days! That journalist must be constantly triggered by fighting games, but then I don't understand why he just doesn't quit if he can't handle the scripted actions of pixels.

TGG_overlord2600d ago

I would also like that add that real-life female fighters can take perfectly care of themselves inside and outside of the ring.

SaveFerris2600d ago

Absolutely. There are lots of women who take part in contact sports willingly because they enjoy it, and not just martial arts, but also rugby and rugby league.

naruga2600d ago (Edited 2600d ago )

destructoid ....a bunch of tragic people trying to relate themslves with gaming ....go close yourselves

Eonjay2600d ago

Even if he did say it, why should we be triggered?

Simon_the_sorcerer2600d ago

@SaveFerris " That journalist must be constantly triggered by fighting games"

Try searching for his name + this:

TGG_overlord2600d ago

@SaveFerris

"Absolutely. There are lots of women who take part in contact sports willingly because they enjoy it, and not just martial arts, but also rugby and rugby league."

- Yep, I like American Football more than Rugby though ;)

Simon_the_sorcerer2600d ago

I honestly like to watch female soccer more than the male version, as they tend to whine less when they get tackled and whatnot.

GrimReaperGamer2600d ago

Jonathan Holmes is a liberal snowflake. Quick Mr. Holmes aka Captain No Manhood call on the developers of DOA to make a safe space in game for these women. The amount of mentally unstable people on earth is hilarious, but also extremely scary at the same time.

TGG_overlord2600d ago (Edited 2600d ago )

@GrimReaperGamer "Jonathan Holmes is a liberal snowflake"

- That is correct. Nevertheless, I had no idea who that guy was at first though. However, the more I read and heard about him, the more I started to realize that his indeed a hardcore liberal snowflake.

"The amount of mentally unstable people on earth is hilarious, but also extremely scary at the same time."

- At first I thought that he was just fooling around, but his pretty dead serious about what he thinks and says...

Simon_the_sorcerer2600d ago

Ah, that "Holmes"...Then I get his rather stupid statement (s).

TGG_overlord2600d ago

That's the one, yes...I've been listening to some of his other interviews, and his like a more hardcore SJW version of Jack Thompson (imo).

annoyedgamer2600d ago

BUHAHA

Don't include women in fighting/shooting games = sexist because women are equal

Put women in = sexist because it promotes domestic violence

ShaunCameron2600d ago

Feminists and their enablers don't know what they want.

Atomicjuicer2600d ago

They just want to bitch and moan. Best ignored basically.
