Dead or Alive 4

[yuki]

This game is hard as tits. Seriously, there's only 3 modes: Normal, Hard, and Very hard. In this case, Normal = Hard, Hard = Very hard, and Very Hard = Not Possible. The thing that gives me a loving aneurysm is that THERE AREN'T ANY HELP VENUES. Not even the Instruction Booklet does stuff, the game wants you to be a goddamned expert before you play. The main thing that stops you from getting your ass kicked is counter-attacking, BUT IT DOESN'T TELL YOU HOW TO loving DO IT. THE AI DOES IT EVERY TIME I START A COMBO, BUT I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING AND IT DOESN'T WORK. The only way to describe this game is "Being assraped by Megan Fox and Tara Reid with a spiked carrot at the same time while they make love to each other." It's painful and awkward but it's loving hot and lovey. It's fun, but jesus christ it's hard. Also, Christie's endgame cinematic is hot as hell.

Basically, this was designed for crazy Japanese kids who are already experts from playing DOA 1-3 a billion hours, ported to the US because we like tits.
4.5/5 because of Christie.

In order to counter-attack, I think you have to press X. They aren't really hard, in every match, I've drained half of my opponents life bar, in a few seconds.

In the senior lounge people typically had an Xbox 360 hooked up. One day I brought in DoA 4 and a female friend asked, "Why are these women dressed like prostitutes?"

Whenever someone asks why they're wearing skimpy uniforms, it's quite simple: Maneuverability.

Next complaint: Alpha.
WHAT THE forget. JUST WHO THE forget INVENTED THIS. This is the essential "Boss" of the game, and it REALLY pisses me off. She can teleport, shoot lasers, teleport some more, get 16 hit combos, she has block-breakers, she can use attacks that you can not block or defend against. This is BULLstuff. Christie is the only one I can actually kick her ass with. I spent an hour with La Mariposa trying to kill Alpha. forget.

My sister didn't mind.

Your sister obviously related with them then.

Obviously not. She doesn't care about the boobs, and the lack of clothing. She just wants to play the game.
