      Totally missed all this "Xbox One" stuff. Anywhere I can watch a recap?

      Just got my Leon and Tengu shirts! Thanks again, @PJudge.

      MaxDrago wants Tengu to return in DOA5U. Finally I can agree with him on something. I bet he'll call Tengu broken though.

        I definitely agree with him but I also agree with him on what he said about bringing back Hitomi's K2KP.

      Really that honestly doesnt make any sense to me. why would they make it so that i can fight against people who have vita's in some modes but not in others?

        It's because they cut lobby matches and throwdowns from the Vita version. Without those two options, it's just ranked match and simple match.

      Mate you must be pretty pumped about Tengu. Surely he is on the Ultimate menu now after Leon found his way out of the lost desert. He would have to be near pencil-in.

        Forlorn Penguin
        Damn straight, I'm pumped. Words cannot describe how damn pissed I'll be if he still isn't in even after a fucking re-release.

        I expect him to be in, though and I expect that TN will make him not be shit this time too. Let's hope I'm not setting myself up for heartache.

      "Throws that are the directions 987654 should all be breakable. But throws like 236 should not." WHAT? What is the point of this, MaxDrago?

        He's not even funny anymore. I used to laugh it off at his nonsense but now it's best to just ignore him.

        Ayreon need more metal, and less opera rock/70' progressive rock. That's why I love FotM...

        I agree that he should put more metal into it, though I love the opera rock/prog rock sound. Don't know if you ever heard "Epilogue: The Memory Remains". It was the conclusion to the Ayreon story and was super proggy. It was on the Timeline compilation set.

        I am hoping that The Theory of Everything has a much more metal sound to it though. We've only been given a few very small samples of it at this point though, so who knows how it'll sound in the end.

        Yes, it does, but it won't. It has something to with Microsoft not wanting to work with YouTube or something. It wasn't TN's decision deny Xbox players.

        I don't see Microsoft suddenly changing their minds for this re-release.

      Strange how every player I've faced in DOA5+ has 1 bar even though I search for 3+. Equally strange is the fact that they don't lag.

        I had a PS3 vs Vita player match, went pretty smooth. Was actually smoother then some PS3 to PS3 matches I had & the Vita match was only 2 bars. I think the netcode is better on the Vita, still prefer playing on 360.

        @Chaos: It has a much better dpad, so yes.

        @Randzz: I know, right? It feels way less laggy on Vita for some reason. The cross-play works great too, though you can't save replays of cross-play matches.

    Tengu
    I'm relatively new to fighting games. While I've played several over the years, I never really took a liking to them until early in 2012, though I've regularly played DOA4 since the summer of 2010. I still only play a few fighters though, so I really need to broaden my horizons and jump into more franchises. Of the few series that I currently play, Dead or Alive is the one that I enjoy the most. Sadly, Dead or Alive 4 was my first entry into this series, so I missed out on the glory days of DOA2 and DOA3.

    With the release of DOA5, I decided to try to better learn the depth of fighting games and play at a more competitive level than I did previously. I'm not very good, but I'm learning and slowly improving. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone offline who plays fighting games and so I have to resort to playing online. I'd love to compete in offline tournaments to play with better players and improve, as well as to be able to hang out and chat with fellow DOA fans. Sadly, there is no DOA scene here in central Florida and I can't currently afford to travel for tournaments.

    My main character in DOA is Gohyakumine Bankotsubo, better known as simply "Tengu". I am without a doubt the biggest Tengu fan you'll ever come across. Omitting the master of Tengu-do from DOA5 was completely unjustified and forced me to have to find a new character to main, which I struggled greatly with, as I simply failed to click with just about the entire cast. After many discouraging months and almost giving up on the game, I finally began to play decently with Bayman and settled on him. Still, I can't tell you how excited I'd be to see Tengu return in DOA5 or DOA6. He'll always be my true main, but until he returns, it looks like I'm a Bayman player now.

    As for non-fighting games, I mainly prefer singleplayer games, particularly western RPGs with immersive universes and wonderful, imaginative stories. The works of BioWare prior to their turn to mediocrity in 2010 would all be great examples. My favorite game of all-time would be Bethesda's 2002 masterpiece; The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.
