Dead or Alive 2 Review

Pretty fun game.
This game plays a lot like Virtua fighter but goes quite a bit further in visuals. DOA2 is the real turning point in the series with great design and framerate. Well worth the price. Give it a try.

XBox owners Beware !
After playing DOA Ultimate for Xbox, people may be tempted to buy this version for Dreamcast. Don't bother, this version for Dreamcast is extremely boring. It has zero replay value. This game is garbage compared to the better Xbox versions.
Other Dreamcast games that are 100 times better: Virtua Fighter 3, Soul Calibur, and Project Justice. These 3 games are excellent and are only available on Dreamcast.

DEAD OR ALIVE: THE OVERVIEW
dead or alive 2 is a great game! it has awesome graphics and tons of players and fighting moves to choose from. although the game (to me) is a bit short in story mode, as all of the players i believe have 8 levels and always have the same boss(evil tengu), it makes up for it with its multiple modes and great multi player action. there are also many cheats for this game. you'll soon learn that each character has different statistics and some characters are better than others.it is worth what you pay.

Good but not great.
DOA2 is a fun game to play with friends that can play it also.
First off the game has NO extras. That in itself is disappointing!
Secondly, the single player game [...] BIG time. As a result the team battles and versus battles with friends are all you will have to hang on to.
These 2 flaws really killed the game for me. I love extras and a good single player mode since I can't have friends over everyday.
On the plus side, the graphics are great and the gameplay is fun, espically with friends. I'll recommend this game as a good game to play with friends. If you don't have that option then you couls let it slip by.

Collisions badly handled, too little variety, but solid game
1) Be forewarned that the graphics are a little "lazy" - the collisions are handled fairly poorly, so that fabric, hands, legs, etc all overlap and slide into each other pretty much all the time. Body parts do not stop when they hit body parts.
2) Be forewarned that characters, costumes, and backgrounds are limited -- I'm spoiled by having dozens of characters and arenas... the limited variety in DOA2 is frustrating.Otherwise solid game... And, hey, do not make the mistake of comparing the look-and-feel of this game to Soul Caliber, ok? This is closer to silly cartoon-like games like Marvel vs Capcom or Mortal Kombat Gold. It is cartoonish, highly stylized. It is not trying to be super-realistic. It's a beautiful, internally consistent, and good-looking game taking its stylization into consideration. Game play is fine. Fun! Easy enough, and with some variety for skill-building...
