DOA3 review at ign!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: November 09, 2001, 07:42:00 AM »
Saw this at gaming age........btw this is from igninsider.....

Presentation
Fantastic intro movies, excellent camera angles. Ending movies are cool, but they don\'t make too much sense... worthy seen though (especially Helena\'s... WOOF). 9.3
Graphics
There are not enough words to praise the visual glory. Apart from some very minor glitches here and there, only Halo rivals the graphic quality of DOA3. 9.9
Sound
I don\'t dig Aerosmith too much, but the in-game fighting music is pretty good. Excellent sound effects whether it\'s stone breaking apart, or your spine breaking apart. 9.0
Gameplay
Less memorization, more tactical gameplay. Innovative use of 3D environments and a tag team mode feature that is extremely addictive. 9.5
Lasting Appeal
If the game suffers anywhere, it\'s here. The extra modes are okay and while you need to work hard, there\'s stuff to unlock. But with the intuitive controls, grab three buddies and tag team owns you. 8.9
OVERALL SCORE (not an average)
9.4

From the IGN review...

"For the last few years, the Dead Or Alive series has been the third-stringer in the 3D fighting game world as Tekken and Virtua Fighter battled it out. Even now, there\'s a pretty sizeable percentage of gamers that prejudge Dead Or Alive 3 as a cheap thrill featuring big-breasted ladies as the main draw, calling it a turbo charged Virtua Fighter 2, or a less flashy Tekken 3. To those gamers, it\'s time to eat those words and welcome, not only a competitor that looks to be the best 3D fighting game, but also the new standard of video gaming. It\'s time to realize that Dead Or Alive 3 is nothing like Virtua Fighter or Tekken but a unique 3D fighting game that will definitely change both the way we see the next generation of 3D fighting games, but sets the standard for quality on the Xbox. Welcome to the next level."



Sweet it got a 9.4!!!!! I must have this game.

I don\'t either..... But they are making it sound like it\'s the best game... ONE OF A KIND... But it\'s not... They are thinking they are big and bad because they got a game that plays exactly the same...

the gameplay in doa2 was quite horrible IMO (and people who ARE very experienced in fighting games will know ie; Ryu, Ironfist Alterdbeast etc) The game was so shallow and boring, no combos no skill just counter and counter all over again

Playing DOA2 was fun for a while.. But then it got tiring mainly because of the way it played. As Metal Ray said..

There are probably people who never played or owned DOA2 in the first place, so DOA3 playing similarily is not a problem.

Personally I will like it if the engine stays similar b/c I spent lots of time perfecting my technique in DOA2 so I can at least hit the ground running in DOA3.

I love DOA2 and if DOA3 is just DOA2 with more moves and fighters, that\'s all I need.  Here\'s my $$$, where do I sign?

Actually, I can.  I enjoy those games a million times more than DOA2:HC, and I am entitled to my own opinion.  I don\'t mind if you like DOA2\'s gameplay though, so go ahead and enjoy DOA3.

Gamespy\'s review is a lot better--they take into account the fact that the game is a complete rehash, at least.

The DOA series is damn annoying and cheap, in my opinion. I don\'t care if it is a rehash or not. It takes almost zero skill to become a "master" at the series, unlike a series like per say Virtua Fighter which takes months and months of constant playing with ONE character to become even remotely good.

However, DOA does have bouncy boobies on the women..Oh wow...:rolleyes:
