Swordmaster's review of Dead or Alive Four
So I'm here to talk about Dead or Alive 4 or DOA4, When I first got DOA4 I was excited, the previous DOAs have been boatloads of awesome, but when I began playing I was in for a rude awakening. Don't get me wrong DOA 4 is a solid game once you unlock all the characters. Survival mode is fun time and time again, and versus mode is competitive, fast pased and excellent. However trying to get all of the characters or unlock anything will make you want to vomit, I know I wanted to on several occasions.
Listen, the difficulty level of the story mode is off the charts, sure it's fine for the first few matches, I mean nothing special, but in the later fights the CPU begins to fight dirty with waves of impassable counters and holds that no human player can pull off. And finally an impossible cherry on this frustrating sundae is the the final boss of most character's story modes. This blue demon is so hard to beat that you may wish to hop in the game itself wielding a semi automatic machine gun and murder the blue B&*%! of course your efforts would be in vain because she would dissapear telaport behind you and snap your neck off. The truth about the final boss is that her moves are twice as powerful as yours, she is twice as fast and you and she can instantly telaport anytime you come close to hitting her.
Now if you think that is hard, then I don't suggest even trying to play the Time Attack mode. I don't know why it's called the time attack mode because all it is is basically story mode except you play 2 out of three for all enemies, oh and each character's final boss is the blue lady. The time attack mode is nearly impossible, and you must beat it with all 21 characters to unlock the final character. Truly you will go insane if you play this game. I suggest you don't play this game if you have pets or family members you wish to remain alive, because you will murder them. I also don't recommend this game to anyone who has belongings they like un-smashed. Oh and if you plan on playing this game I suggest having lots of extra cash with which to purchase new controllers. Oh and a soundproof glass bubble as not to disturb the neighbors with your cries of anguish. I would only recommend this game to insanly hardcore gamers, lonely but wealthy homeless people, or angsty teenagers, oh and anyone hoping for an excuse to kill someone.All in all I give this game a 9...
out of 100
In the end all I have to say is this "team ninja, what the f%&@?"
