DOA3 Interview
IGN XBox had a chance to interview Tomonobu Itagaki, the man behind doa3, heres a clip.IGN Xbox Why did you decide not to show gameplay at this years E3?Tomonobu Itagaki: I didnt want people to play an incomplete product. If you compare other type of games for Xbox, DoA looks much better, but I still thought that the status of the product at that point was still not satisfactory. Thats why we didnt want to show the playable game. As a gamer, I understand that many of the gamers wanted to play the game during E3, but at the same time those people were expecting to see new aspects of the game. For now, I want them to look forward to the release of the game on November 8th. For the people that want to play the game before purchasing it, were going to distribute a demo disk for the Xbox kiosk [Eds note: 10,000 kiosks will be in stores around the country] that will be at stores. People will get a chance to play and evaluate the game before they buy it for the launch this fall.
