Why DOA4 is already better than VF5...

Also, for those who think DOA is so bad, keep in mind the last 2 installments of DOA have scored higher then the last 2 installments of Soul Caliburosusfaith

I haven't played the latest DOA; DOA4 yet but I heard that their is a problem in blocking your opponents attacks? Can any of you guys confirm this?crazyjames1080

Tekken 6 vs. Dead or Alive 5 is going to be one of the biggest events in fighting game history.

I have always found the VF series better than any other fighter with the exception of Soul Caliber, although I prefer VF4 to SC2 :?. VF takes a lot more time to get the most out of it though and that is why these pick up and play easily games like DOA and Tekken seem to be more popular imo. As for online do you people not have any freinds in r/l or something? I much prefer playing against somebody I know while we have a drink to a stranger over the net.csliney

Itagaki stated he believed that when they were nearing the end of developement on Doa4, but since then, he already confirmed they'll be making DOA5 on the 360osusfaith

People who bash DOA 4 most likely has never played it. The previous installments, sure those were fun but horrible. DoA 4 is much different.waynehead895

I did but I beat them too much at Tekken and DOA so now they hate me :cry:

Ummm...how bout no online for VF5...what is this 1999? jeeze fighting games are pointless to play unless you, I don't know, HAVE SOMEONE TO PLAY AGAINST!!! IMO VF5 can't be better than DOA4 on that merrit alone...colmusterd28

Because obviously we don't have any friends in real life.

But the thing is, I did play a lot of fighting games with friends and other people when I hosted parties or just hanging out plenty of times. Not as many times as I did in the arcades though. I'm as serious as a heart attack when it comes to fighting games. Guess you had to have been there during the whole Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, and SNK thing during the 90s. When I was in college (1999-2003) in Durham, NC, there was a huge faction of people in the RDU area or NC that were serious about competition. It was all Tekken, all the time. Tekken 3 was godly in the arcades, back in a time when they exsisted everywhere. As the later games came out, the crowds dwindled. When I finally got the chance to play Tekken 5 : DR, it wasn't the same.

That's why online is important.  And probably the only reason I continue to play and try to get better at Dead or Alive.

I was thinking the same thing. When it was DOA 3 vs Tekken 4 and Virtua Fighter 4 I would have picked VF and Tekken over DOA and wouldn't have been able to choose between them for a winner. With DOA 4 I now consider it to be with Tekken and VF in the way that I don't think it's a lesser game anymore and I now can't pick between any of them. They all have their charms. Soul Calibur on the other hand used to be the only one I would ever say was my favorite but after SC3 it's in my bad book.

No Online is just showing lazyness on the part of the devs...ANyone who buys in to this "integrity of the game" crap is just a VF fanboy...They had every reason to take the online fighting throne away from DOA4 but they messed up...BAD!

and the truth will set you free....My old thread from a couple weeks ago is TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE!!!!!! VF has always been worse than DOA and the world keeps spinning....colmusterd28

Well if thats the guns your sticking by than I'd like to personally thank Team Ninja for putting online in their game because its been nothing but an amazing experience both performance wise and entertainment wise...Huh, its kinda funny the MS game actually serves the fans while the Sony game is stubborn and leaves the fans out in the cold....huh so true on a larger scale also.....

So you have no friends? Only people that will play you are online people? Anyways, I get your point. No online sucks but what makes a fighter great is the fighter, not the online...
