DoAXXX

Ok, i know it' s not the most popuar game amongst the Kikizo elite but i have good reason [ish] for posting this.





Will giving the girls nipples translate into higher sales figures for any territory?!

The Japanese wouldn' t approve of nudity, even if western games would, but will they trun their noses up at this?! And would this, if emphasised properly through the games marketing (though subtly) aid sales in the west?!

Also, what' s with the pole-dancing mode?!

Actually, from what I' ve studied, the modern Japanese society is quite accepting of sexual or suggestive content much like the rest of the world. Now that I think of it, perhaps they' re more accepting than the western world as a lot of their young teen shows have sexual suggestivity in it, much more than any equivalent western show. What' s accepted in Japanese society would have no chance in hell getting past the censors in the western world.

So the answer is yes. This is normal and will equate to higher sales. Heck, have a look at any anime/manga female protagonist. 90% of them are scantily clad, even though it' s not necessary.

The only conservatives are those in the government. Much of the laws about pornography/nudity censorship are from just after WW2, and aren' t really relevant today - even though they are still enforced.

Video interview with Itagaki where he says Japan wouldn' t approve of nudity in DoAX

Don' t tell me he was interested in doing some type of nude mode in Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 but couldn' t because he doesn' t feel that Japan would approve

Given how more open to sexually explicit things in games that Japan was in the past (remembering some 16-bit games with panty shots and partial breast shots) I' m actually a little surprised by Itagaki' s comment (if he' s referring to partial nudity and not full-on nudity).

Terry Bogard - currently the most Unhelpful member of the Kikizo forums.

My guess is that he wants the game to appeal to female gamers.

I' m guessing that he' s bullshiting to get some attention. He probably hopes this will generate some " nudity hype" .

...because the game needs nudity?!

Seriously, they should have just made a DoA wave race and left it at that. What' s the point in the pole dancing, sunbathing, swimming, photography mode etc?!

DONT BUY THIS GAME!

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

DONT BUY THIS GAME!

OH it' s already bought, I' m just waiting for it to be released

Sounds fair to me!

Quez might not admit to buying it but we all know he will. If i didn' t have a girlfriend i would use the excuse that i must own any game by Itagaki, but i do and she wants the game so i don' t need to.

What genre is it anyway?

What' s up with Kasumi' s saggy tits? And Ayane' s nipples are too big she looks freaky.

With all the erotic games Japan has, I almost find it odd that haven' t gone all the way with DOAX2. Although I am happy that they haven' t, as in it' s current state the slight sleazyness of the game is yet not sleazy enough to make me " wrinkle" my " nose" at it and as it is I simply find it to be a " funny thing" .

One probably shouldn' t make DoAX2 to more than it is, but I am almost 67.8% possitive that this will be " THE BEST PARTY GAME EVAAAHR!"

A peek-a-perv genre game!

This is the only game that I can play with my sis... That, and the first one, the
second one may come with a trailer of Ninja Gaiden 2, as the first one
came with a trailer of Ninja Gaiden..

Yes, but he' s on crack and will never publicly admit the real point of the DOA girls because of his " personal connection" with them. Japan loves nudity, porn and suggestiveness and they love it when it' s in games. Every other game shop in Akihabara is also a porn shop and most game stores have at least one floor dedicated to sex based games and/or outright porn. That is why DOA is popular and why there are 30 different books full of DOAX artwork on shelves at any one time.

Hahahahhahaahahahahahahah.

Here, here!!

This, Fable 2 and Ninja Gaiden 2! Done deal!

Whats wrong with you people? this game is pooh! The graphics suck,the dialogue sucks, the game mechanics suck,the animations suck, if there is a story it must suck, the controls suck, the camera sucks, the moves suck, the characters are stupid and generic (infact a lot of them suck and blow at the same time).

Why not play playboys mansion or that Larry game if you' re looking for some T&A in a videogames? Actually never mind that, anyone attracted to polygonal women seriously need to re-evaluate their lives.

As an extension to this, No offence to any Japanese members here (this isn' t directed towards you). But any popular videogame in Japan usually uses very shallow methods of appeal. (i.e. half naked women, pussy/childish story lines, metrosexual " men" whose only purpose is to make testosterone deprived japanese boys feel like men by comparison.

I love Japan and its people, its honestly the only country I want to visit, but I hate the shit that Japanese gamers try to pass for a videogame. The reason this upsets me is because I see it lower our standards. There are exceptions, (mainly Nintendo) but all these pansie RPGs and embarissingly perverted tripe like DOA and Rumble Roses XX has to be forged from this side of the planet.

I' ll buy your copy then to make up sales..

There are 2 main reasons I am buying the game...

1. My sister loves it, and it' s also quite fun to play with her too.

2. The first one came with a trailer of Ninja Gaiden, so I am hoping the
second one comes with a trailer of Ninja Gaiden 2.

Obviously there are modes like the camera mode that really shouldn' t be there,
but there are some mini-game modes that warrant the purchase as the controls
are so basic.

Vx, you own a copy of DOA??? Yet you never told anyone?

Yep, i do think I told though! im a B+ i havent played in a while so im probably gonna drop to a B- when i begin playing agian!

lol are you serious about the sister thing? How old is she? I would be way too uncomftorable playing that with my sister.

My sisters 13, I liked playing the volleyball with her because personally I thought
it was a shallow game at first, and then I tried it, and it was so simple, so I just
started playing with her, even though she played it before me. She did all the
accessorising and stuff, and then when she had got all the items, she was like:

" What' s the Ninja Gaiden trailer?"

After which I promptly booted her off the system and watched it to my hearts
content!!

I' m an A+, I can' t be asked to go the distance to SS, waaaaay too many points!

Also, most people become SS' s by playing low level people loads of times, which
I can' t be asked to do. I lose more matches than I win, but that' s because I
always play against higher level people, where I would play 2 matches and then
win the 3rd, and then they quit.

Wow, well I guess I could see a 13 year old girl liking the game, I guess I know a few older girls that like it.

My roomate owns DOA4 so I only got to play about 10 games of it online. But I beat 2 people that were SS' s. Man they were surprised. The first time I beat an SS I quit after that game. The other time I beat an SS and then the next 3 people in line and then played him again and got dominated, I almost got perfected

My girlfriend loved the original and is really looking forward to this. I wouldn' t play the volleyball or other mini-games though, just the waverace parts. I still don' t get the poledancing addition, it just looks strange.

I don' t have a girlfriend-.


...



im still looking though

Not only my sister, but my Team Manager who' s 28... and Damn fine!

She loves the accessorising aspect too, I heard her and her friend talking about it
the other day, and how she can' t wait for the next one. She owns a 360 and plays
games like Fight Night, Oblivion, Saints Row (), and she also owns Test Drive
Unltd. She' s also a " non-gamer" ..

Just Japan? You' ve never thought about all the big boobed ladies with big guns and thight shorts, or the ones wearing thight leather wear with wips, or about porn star like Nazi women, or all the hookers you can pick up and f*ck in western games?

Seriously I cannot see how you claim that the japanese games are more shallow than western games. You complain that the stories are pansy ass (although I too think so), as to in western games there often is no more story than " here is your gun, there is your enemy... think of the rest yourself"

You even say that they lower our standars, but I know you know that the reason we get so many imports of japanese games isn' t because they are forcing them on us, rather because there is a wanting for those games within the western audience.

Personally I feel I cannot say either is better than the other, they are simply different.
And I' m no GAMECIST (just made that word up... obvisouly), I like all types of games, be they J-RPG' s or western shooters. Of course I have preferences, but a game I like is A GAME I LIKE!

Yeah, you said it Dionysius...

and I LIKE DOAX2!!!

Hrmph!

No, most people became SS by joining the Hitler youth, but I' ll stop the dumb Nazi jokes here.

Japan has a more reserved, if a little more extreme, sense of sexuality. Much of it is hidden away like it' s shameful, but it' s filtered into the culture so far now, that you really can see it in every other shop.
America & much of Europe is more brash & straightforward, (read as a little less tasteful) with the way they present themselves. The way people dress is one example, but when it comes to the sort of sexuality that' s really placed in your face in Japan, IE, books, magazines, dvd' s, much of it seems to be reserved to 7/11 newsstands and HBO.

Boobies.

You' re right to an extent, western games have their own way to cram as much perversion in a game, but to a much smaller extent (and I see this improving). The difference is that western games are not limited by this the same way it is in Japan. Western games have a wide variety of style and game types. Japanese games seem to only be the fagish RPGs and Nintendo games. I firmly believe that one of the reasons MGS is so popular is because its one of the few games that deviate from this trend and has a certain degree of quality. Theres a lot of talent in Japan but its wasted on this garbage. All these over emotional, childish, immature, gay pride RPGs need to die.

Actually I can live with the bad RPGs with proimitive combat systems and outdated everything. The games that repulse me the most and make me ashamed to be a gamer are the low brow perverted fighters that showcase these freakishly out of proportion polygonal prostitutes. DOAXX is no different from Rumble Roses. These games are what Playboy and Penthouse would make if they made fighters. First of all why the hell are female characters even in fighters? Wheres the logic in that? If you' re going to have females in fighters at least keep them seperate.
