Hi all... I just wanted to make a topic about DOA (DOA3 in particular...) I just picked up DOA3 and wow... this game is A LOT better than I thought it was. I have to admit that that the first DOA game I played was DOA2 on the Dreamcast. I tossed it aside, labeling it as a button masher that was all visuals and no depth to the fighting engine. I played a little bit of DOA3 too a while back and thought the same... just a bunch of sexy ladies beating each other down. The first DOA game I really started playing was DOAX... yes, it's not a real DOA fighting game, but I really really really really like that game. I also started to like the characters a lot, so I decided to pick up DOA3. After playing it for many hours, I have decided that this game rocks. The fighting engine is infinitely deeper than I thought it was... the counter system is really strange, but built to be that way. The fact that almost everything is counterable really keeps both players on their toes and makes you think about every move you make. The game is really fast paced, which I like in a fighter, an there are a lot of combinations and strings for each fighter. The tag mode is also pretty neat. Now, it isn't as deep as say, Soul Calibur, but it's a lot more fun and balanced than a lot of fighters out there. So now I am eagerly awaiting DOA Ultimate, so I can hop online and play against other people. What do you guys think of DOA? Oh, my favorite characters are Hitomi and Lei Fang. What are yours?
