Dead or Alive 4 (2005 Video Game)
8/10
A great developed game
19 March 2007
We all started from Dead or Alive, to the second, to the third, and it has developed very quickly in my opinion. Now that Dead or Alive 4 is out, we stood for joy waiting on this game. Believe me I did.

Dead or Alive 4 I must say is one of the best graphic Dead or Alive games, while Dead or Alive 2: Ultimate was second. You get to see every strand of hair , and clothes flowing through the wind, and you get to see, of course, what DOA has gotten most famous for...Those deadly female ninjas, wrestlers, and martial artists.

Now three have joined the DOA cast, well technically five. There's Kokoro, the very long haired Geisha, the "Lion from Virtua Fighter" look-alike, but much better, Elliot, and the high kicking and flipper, La Mariposa, who most know as Lisa from Xtreme Beach Volleyball. It was kind of hard to find out what her race was. There is also a Halo-girl Spartan, and the main boss, Alpha, or Kasumi's jello clone.

When you start many of you notice "Where is Gen-Fu, Helena, and Leon". Well, you have to unlock them.

The soundtrack has gotten a little more interesting. You will always know that there will be at least a few Aerosmith songs in there, and there is. The Aerosmith songs really set the mood into this game. The intro is the best part for a song.

Now, to the stages. They are really detailed, and you fight everywhere on those stages. You even get to knock them over fences. When practicing, going to new places are a lot of fun.

To the gameplay, many characters seem to have new moves compared to the past gam,es, and every character has that powerful move, to make your replays "skip, and repeat". Some characters have really good juggling combos as your strategy to beat every character in this game.

The very big problem about this game, is the difficulty. 1st of all, there's NO EASY MODE! When you start playing mode like story, or time attack, they really get easy at some times, but the last stage, out of all stages, will keep you playing this one stage for 15 o 20 minutes. Believe me. This game will get you frustrated, a lot. My cousin actually broke a pack of my clear cds, and I had to buy another one. That's how frustrating it is.

However, the good thing about story mode, is that some characters do not face Alpha on the last stage. So you can get those "kinky" costumes that you wanted, and be glad you got it.

Do I think this game is really good to buy. Easy mode or no easy mode(Well, Easpecially having an easy mode) Yes, this can be a good game to buy.
