Great.
The graphics are breath taking (which is expected from Team Ninja). This game really shows off the 360's capabilities. The stages are lush, and the character models are, well, extremely attractive. Even those who don't enjoy fighting game but enjoy scantly dressed, gorgeous women (and men) are bound to love this game. DOA is known for it's incredible fighting system. The controls are complex and take time to master; but, once you get it down, kicking the living crap out of your friends and others online is undeniable fun. The musical score is pretty impressive as well, nothing to write home about, but it certainly does not take away from what this game is. Online play is amazing, and is what really sets this game apart from other fighting games, I would suggest getting this game just so you can see how well the online features work. If you are a fan of fighters, then this is a no brainer, it's one of the best in the genre. If you hate fighters, or lack patience to get good at a game, then I would suggest against this game, or perhaps renting it first.
