I've been kinda a DOA fan for some years now. The first time I tried one of the games (DOA1) was by one of my friends. I instantly liked the game and I found it fun to play. Especially in the Multiplayer mode. Then, years later, after not playing DOA1 for a long time, I got my hands on my own PlayStation 2. My first game for the console was ironicly DOA2. Now, I didn't buy the console myself, I got it as a present at my confirmation, so I didn't buy the game myself either. Lucky for me, my parents knew my love for Fighting Games (After many years in company with games as Tekken, Soulblade, Bushido Blade and Bloody Roar) and they simply went out and got me this game. I was thrilled. I remembered my experience with the last game so the first thing I did the next day was to play DOA2. It was a good experience: The game was fast (Very fast sometimes), the characters were different and cool, the game was fun to play and of course there were the ladies (Breasts *cough*) Anyway, I introduced it to my best friend, who also loves fighting games, but not as much as me though, and she too were instantly hooked. Now, the game maybe wasn't that hard. You could just button mash and you'd end with a victory. But soon we learned about the grap thing which, I may add, took some time to learn proberly. Since then I've spend much time with this game, Well not as much as I did with the Tekkens and Soul Calibur, and I can conclude that it's great fun. By the way, Helena and Ein are my favorites
