Old School Dead or Alive Game
User Rating: 9.2 | DOA2: Dead or Alive 2 (Platinum) PS2
DOA2 Hardcore may not completely match up to the modern Dead or Alive Games such as the third or even the fourth installment on the Xbox / Xbox 360 console system but the game itself is still a decent game. It boasts very good graphics and a good line of characters, along with a pretty decent storyline to create a very fun game for players to play. The diverse choices of characters in the game come with his or her own specialized fighthing techniques which are generally quite real, and parallel their real life counter parts for moves. Also in my opinion this game moves a lot faster than the Tekken series and has a bit more fan service than many other fighting games (especially the women) Overall with great levels and highly detailed characters this is definately a game that I think anyone with a lust for fighting games should defintly consider investing in. Just remember the AI is smart so don't continue to pull the same string of moves again and again as the computer will surely figure out a way to counter you, remember to always vary your moves.
