Ever wonder if game developers, studios, and/or publishers are storing the games they make for preservation of the future or not? Well John Andersen over at Gamasutra has, and asked various different developers from all over the globe in the past two years about what methods they utilize (if...

It was ten years ago that Dead or Alive 3 was released in Japan for Microsoft's Xbox videogame system. The title went on to be the top selling title for the Xbox in Japan and had a small offline tournament scene in the United States for awhile. Here's to a game that still looks amazing for being...

GameSpot has put up a recording of Itagaki's panel where he discussed his story of finding Aerosmith and being deceived by Tecmo when developing Dead or Alive 2. It's about a 30 minute presentation that was titled "What we talk about when we talk about games". He even talks about deciding on...

In a recent interview with Gamasutra.com, Yosuke Hayashi discussed the team's direction for both Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive. Specifically, in regard to Dead or Alive he discussed how they want to make the series "high class". It's certainly a departure from the traditional Team NINJA, but...

Dead or Alive fans have always wondered if Dead or Alive would get a "vs" style treatment in the vein of "Capcom vs SNK" or "Street Fighter X Tekken". Although the most common collaboration recommended is Virtua Fighter vs DOA, personally speaking I still don't believe it would set the world on...

NewbReview.com has released a nice article that helps break down the bad stereotypes of fighting game tournaments. The article is written by Jason Borlase who tells of his experiences in some of the most renown fighting game tournaments. I recommend it as a read to any friends who think that...

I recently read a featured article on my personal favorite game developer website, Gamasutra, where TwitchTV employee Justin Kan discussed how they grew the company from its Justin.TV beginnings. As an overview, he talks about the explosion of streams specifically designed to broadcast not only...

Team NINJA head Yosuke Hayashi and Ninja Gaiden Director Fumihiko Yasuda were recently interviewed in the February issue of Nintendo Gamer magazine. It was a short interview but here are the two biggest answers out of it: In answering a question about the Wii U in terms of difficulty in...

In the latest issue of Famitsu magazine, four screens of the upcoming Dead or Alive 5 demo we haven't seen yet were displayed. In them you'll find what I think is Hitomi's win pose showing her all dirty, as well as three other screens of her vs Hayabusa and Hayate vs Ayane. Page will be updated...

Brought up in a conversation with me and Rikuto, felt it would be best to get the community's take on it. Should the window for delaying a string's next attack be narrowed, removed all together, or actually be increased? I know there's a different window for each string as it goes from a move...

Over here in the Dead or Alive community, many members think they're in a bubble - that everything that's "gone wrong" with this community, both from a casual and competitive standpoint, doesn't happen anywhere else. This is in part due to the size of the community and limited progression the...

New screens have been released today for Dead or Alive 5. Most of you will probably notice that Ayane and Hitomi have lost some clothing in alternate outfits, and the breasts are back to their "traditional" sizes. I'm not one to hate breasts, but they really do seem to detract from the rest...

Update: Alright, thanks to Jaxel and an understanding of my stupidity, the issue appears to have been resolved. In an attempt to upgrade the front portal, an issue has occurred that has had me be forced to temporarily disable it. So until I figure out the solution, the front page should be...

We've had a Private Conversation going for awhile but I wanted to open it to the public now. So MegaWarrior and I have met up and played DOA3.1 at my place previously. I'd like to start getting a routine gathering going. So tentatively, I'll be hosting a small gathering every weekend unless...

So I was messing around in training mode today and noticed something peculiar: Kasumi's Kick :4::f: launches the opponent, but the first hit isn't considered a juggle state. What this means is if she gets the hold off with her back to the wall she can do :2::3::6::k: or :9::p::k: or :9::k: and...

Team NINJA has announced that a demo of Dead or Alive 5 will be available via DLC from the Ninja Gaiden 3 packaging. There will be three separate demos available. The regular version of Ninja Gaiden 3 will contain either a demo of DOA5 with Hayate and Ayane playable, or Hayabusa and Hitomi...

but it apparently is. It looks like Team NINJA has claimed on their twitter that they are implementing a sidestepping system that's similar to the North American beloved Dead or Alive 3.1 version. They also have mentioned on their twitter that Normal Holds will not hold Power Attacks, but...

According to the Tecmo Koei Europe Dead or Alive 5 page, the release date for Dead or Alive 5 is set for Winter 2012. At the time of posting, the date is still posted. Of course, most knowledgeable players will tell you that a fall/winter release was expected due to the timeline of announcing...
