I am getting this game just for the visuals! Now this is what I am talking about!
Prepare to be amazed and if anyone asks you what your doing, swear that you are admiring the game for its depth and complexity!
Thanks to Gamespot Japan, here are some magnificent in game screens of the DOA Girls playing with eachother.. (Volleyball that is)
This game will get some bad press but we are being totally honest that aside from all the scantly-clad women bouncing in the sand, we think the game will be a lot of fun. Here is an exert from a recent IGN preview.
"The player-partner dynamic is one that should set a new standard for edginess in videogames. You play volleyball matches for cash in story mode and you're supposed to take your earnings and buy gifts for you partner. If you buy something for your partner like a new bikini (oh yeah a shopping sim boys can get into) or new sunglasses and she likes it, her "appreciation" for you will increase. The stronger the bond between you and your volleyball partner the more cool super volleyball moves you can pull off. This is the upgrade system for DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball. If you buy something that your partner doesn't like, she won't necessarily hate you but she won't like you anymore either and that's money you've spent that you can't get back. A major part of the dynamic is paying attention and learning what each character likes and doesn't like so you can build up a winning team quickly. It's not too unlike Harvest Moon's gift system where you had to woo your lady love into your life with goodies. "
Now if that doesnt sound fun, we dont know what is. Add to that is the fact that Tecmo is behind this. (Developers of worldwide smash Ninja Gaiden and the multi-million selling franchise, Dead Or Alive)
