Dead or Alive 4 (Xbox 360)

Advantages: Graphics, variet of moves, alot of arenas, good costumes
Disadvantages: Need more characters, cut scenes dont make sense

Dead or Alive 4 is a great game, the graphics are outstanding and the game play is a good and an overall improvement on number 3. The graphics of the game are what sets the story, the attention to detail is a vital part of the game. The main good part about the graphics is the arenas. Some have animals in, which can sometimes be interacted with. And also, instead of having one area in the arena to fight in, if one of the characters gets forced into ...
...Another down side to Dead or Alive 4 is that the story modes for each character are too short. You have to compete in 8 matches with each match getting harder and harder. You only have to beat your opponent once, and you get as many tries at it as you like. Some matches will be hard and may take you a few tries to win. I completed all the story modes in 3 days. And I’m sure it could easily be done quicker. Also each story has only a few cut scenes ... Read review

...game is very similar to Dead Or Alive 3 in the sense it has Story Mode, Survival, Time Attack, Team Battle and Sparring mode, and from a glance, it could look very boring and easy to complete in a day.

Advantages: 'Stunning' Visuals, Excellent Combat System
Disadvantages: Overall the Graphics could be better. Online sometimes fails.

Dead or alive is one of those games that people will remember for a long time. Since is debut way back in the day, Dead or Alive has had one of the best fighting systems available in a Beat 'em Up.

You actually need skill to play this game and be any good at it. Unfortunately (or ...
...annoying things from the prior Dead or Alive games have gone, allowing for a truly awesome fighting experience. Not an easy game however.

Once again, 'Team Ninja', have used the same formula for the DOA game as DOA 4 features alot of the same game modes and styles as seen from its predecessors. DOA 4 has a much more advanced game engine ...
...more difficult than previous DOA games. The game has several game modes to keep you busy- Story Mode- here you chose your character from a list of 16 and compete in a string of 8 matches, gradually increasing in difficulty. Every so often, one will have a cutscene to briefly explain whats going on with you chosen character but they dont really help at all. The final person you fight varies depending on who youve chosen, generally it is Alpha 152 ... Read review
