If you're one of the casual gamers upset Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 isn't getting released in your territory, don't be. This game is for diehard fans only.
NetherRealm confirms its Mortal Kombat franchise has sold over 80 million copies in the last 30 years, and here's how it competes against other fighters.
Don't care what anyone says, Smash isn't a traditional fighting game. May as well call Powerstone and Playstation All Stars fighting games. They're more of an arena fighter /party game.
You don't have to care what anyone says. It's not a traditional fighting game. But it is a fighting game.
I mean what makes them an arena fighter than say something like Tekken? Because there’s platforms?
because theres a bunch of pokeballs and other random stupid stuff on stage that you can use at your advantage and flying ultra super power ball that you got to chase on the stage to get your ougi LMAO.

I mean what it sounds like is they took a fighting game and “added” unique mechanics to it to me.
When I think arena game I think of things like Spawn: In the Demon’s Hand or Virtual-On.
Smash to me is a fighting game, they have fighting game tournaments for it. It just doesn’t jive with me to call it “not a fighting game” because you have poke-balls and platforms or because it has 4 players at once duking it out.
Power Stone I’d consider a fighting game as well. Hell, if you google what it is everyone calls these games “fighting games”. So yea, they’re fighting games…
oh its a racer but its not a realistic one like GT or Forza. only kids check for mario kart and smash .
I didn’t say it was realistic. I said racing game. Does Burnout not being realistic make it not a racing game?
What does a demographic have to do with a genre? Do kids playing CoD make it any less an FPS? You see how ridiculous bringing up that subject is?
Nobody said it was a traditional fighter. Everyone acknowledges it as a platform fighter
PSASBR & Power Stone are fighting games, the former being a platform fighter and the latter an arena fighter
Because if cute and lovable characters are fighting it's not a fighting game? XD As long there's a versus fighting, it is a fighting game.
Including Smash Bros in a list of fighting games, is like including GTA in Racing games.
I hate to break it to you but smash bros has fighting game tournaments so it qualifies.
"and here's how it competes against other fighters"
No, Mortal Kombat doesn't compete with games like Smash Bros? It's a different genre for a different audience.
Anybody can host a tournament in their garage it doesnt mean it qualifies.
I'm going to assume you're not part of the FGC. However, I am, and I can tell you that there is a ton of overlap between people who play smash competitively and those who play other fighting games competitively.
Now for casuals, there is a lot less overlap between the two for sure.
While technically true, Leffen comes to mind, FGC and Smash community have always had a rocky relationship.
And yet, If Smash Bros was over 80 million, you wouldn't be complaining. On the contrary, you would be bragging about it.
Bad comparison. You do a LOT of things in GTA outside of a car while fighting is what you’re mainly doing in SSB
Yeah, that's a good point. Most of these games have parts to the franchise outside of traditional fighting games.
Like for example, with Mortal Kombat, do Special Forces, Mythologies: Sub: zero, and the Kollection count?
With Tekken does death by degrees or the tag tournament games count?
With Street Fighter, are we counting all the iterations of 2, 3, and 4? how about the ex series or alpha series?
There are a lot of variables at play here
Even after including Tekken Tag, they have less titles compared to all MK and SF games.
Two of Tecmo's classic series, Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden, are getting new games with a possible reboot of both series.
Why do we need a remake of Dead or Alive, instead of a new installment in the series ?
There's no remake it says reboot. There is a difference just like a difference with remaster as well. They all have re doesn't mean they are the same. They want to reboot and start fresh after both series with South. With there success with nioh series it might be a good idea and hopefully goes well for them and the games.
Fighting games are too shallow, they were good at first.. up til around Tekken 3 and Soul Calibur on Dreamcast, because they had a ton of extra modes and challenges and stuff. Everything after is basically the same, or with even less content.
Really? I feel like they add way too many systems and options to some of the newer games. Like Soul Calibur 6 for example, feels like they'res just too much going on, whereas I loved 2 and memorized all the skills and options for my favorite characters, played through most of the modes as well.
A look back at some of gaming's iconic hot weather levels from throughout the years, as well as a couple that you may have forgotten about.
Why would I spend upwards of $80+ to import this?
Red Tube is free
So long story short, don't buy it because the writer felt Koei-Temco reusing a lot of the assets, shallow gameplay, etc isn't worth the price. Cool. Obviously the game wasn't meant for you. I took a stand and sided with Play-Asia and bought the region free Asia copy. Plus I actually enjoy this game because it's unapologetic on what it is. Same with Gal Gun 2 soon too.
Well worth it ps vita and ps4 are separate games with trophies for each and can sync your unlocks
I get what the reviewer is saying I too wish the girls could be seen at the table and new animations when relaxing, and jet ski would've been nice. But! That does not detract in the least. The game retains its charm regardless. The music is as relaxing and fun as ever. The atmosphere of being on vacation is captured nicely. The screenshots and videos do this game no justice. The girls are more detailed and more beautiful than even last round. The island is gorgeous with beautiful relaxing views. Lots of new gravure movies to unlock and pictorials. The pole dancing is jaw dropping sexy and just amazing how they capture the moves of real life pole dancers.
Grinding is not a chore playing volleyball with the girls is fun and it's there that the bulk of your money is made. You can earn 300,000 on the first game of three per day if you can beat the girls by not allowing them to score. Game sets at 7 so the more they score the less you get but on average if you let them get no more than 4 or 5 you can get well over 100,000. It's a 14 day vacation with plenty of time to get the costumes you want without tons of grinding. Cheapest costumes are 100,000 with most ranging from 200,000 to 500,000 and a few that are 700,000 to 900,000
It's not difficult at all to buy what you want in one play through.
It's true the casino can feel like your being cheated especially in poker, black jack requires too much effort and little return so personally I'll mess with the roulette where you can easily if you bet smart plop down 10,000 and walk away with a very certain 20 to 30,000 and more. Between owner mode and girl mode there is a lot to do if anything you don't have enough time in the day to do them just like a real vacation.
I'd recommend this game to any guy who can appreciated the eye candy this game brings especially if you miss or enjoyed the previous volleyball games. As of right now the sexiest game on the market hands down. When you first see these girls on your high def tv trust me you will be in awe at just how far tecmo has come and appreciate the soft engine.
On a side note if you do import take care not to import the Japanese version as that is not in English it's the Hong Kong Asia version. Your dlc will not work with a Japanese account if you import the English Hong Kong version. That means no Marie rose or honoko costume along with 5 premium tickets for you if you make that mistake. Also make sure to download and install the game on your Hong Kong ps4 account as you'll again have dlc problems playing it on your Japanese account even though it will work and is region free dlc is not. And play still separates save files according to accounts.
This game is worth every effort and is lots of fun. Totally recommended. Not perfect but still a must have for any ps4 collector
