    DOA5: New Gameplay Demo Trailer of Ayane and Hitomi

    Thanks for sharing. It looks like this one hails from the older build, giving the presence of those ugly hitsparks. So glad that they seem to be much more subdued by whatever milestone they are at with the Kasumi+Akira build. Edit: Better quality, for those who want it...

    I just hope Jann's original VA (Toshio Furukawa) will return to reprise his role. Nobutoshi Canna's rendition of him in DOA:D had no real "OOMPH" to those yells!

    Hayashi: Thoughts on the DOA5 Demo and the Fighting Game Community

    There's no shame in admitting that SF4 made fighting games relevant to the Western casual masses again. Before it came along, the only fighting game that really got much in the way of Western attention and grossed millions was Soulcalibur 4 in 2008. Everything else did more to cater to the...

    Good stuff. With about 6 months to go before the slated release, and a demo coming next week, I'm hoping that they'll only do more to make sure that interest can remain high.

    A Few New DOA5 Screens

    Possibility of "bullshot" not withstanding...that does look quite good!

    DOA5: More new challengers coming soon?

    Too many VF characters might spoil the novelty of a "VF+DOA" game. So, therefore, I'm thinking they may choose another Sega character. Maybe someone like Kiryu Kazuma (Ryu ga Gotoku/Yakuza)?

    http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=465472 Here's the newest topic relating to DOA5, things really pick up once the Kasumi+Akira trailer is posted. Also, in case you didn't know, I'm "TreIII" over there. Feel free to correct me if I posted any erroneous information.

    Hope you don't mind if I've been sharing these types of details on NeoGAF. In fact, pulling one of Rikuto's choice quotes on SRK has been very beneficial.

    ...Was she supposed to be black? I dunno, never looked into it that deeply, but she always came off to me as someone of Dominican descent.

    ONLY if there were willing to give us the proper, dark-skinned Vanessa from VF4. I dunno who that light-skinned chick from VF5 is supposed to be, but that ain't the Vanessa I love! ;)

    Near Weekly Maryland Meet-ups

    Who knows? You might turn some heads if you still have "Kenshiro" in the game. ;) But otherwise, don't feel too bad. Even "older" stuff like ST, GG:AC, MBAA and KOF98/2002UM is hard to get started down there, because most people just want to play whatever is "dat new shit". But guys like me...

    Yep. They do have their own array of TVs and EVO Monitors available, too. The earlier you can get there in evenings to set up, the better. If nothing else, because space is a premium.

    Near Weekly Maryland Meet-ups

    Well, it somewhat is. Card/board games go down in the front, fighting games are in the back. Wednesday's the biggest night for fighters. But if you really want the best possible place to connect with the larger DMV fighting game community (and some UMBC game room vets), you probably should...

    Wishing you well at Winter Brawl this weekend. What's your schedule looking like for next weekend? Also, does anybody here go down to Xanadu Games on Wednesdays?

    Limited Edition Ninja Gaiden 3 Will Include DOA5 Demo

    Nah, it's cool. I'll get the game if, for no other reason, to justify my trolling against it! I mean, at least it's not a foregone conclusion like DmC, where I know I reaped what I sowed if I actually went ahead and spent money on it.

    Limited Edition Ninja Gaiden 3 Will Include DOA5 Demo

    FINE. I'LL DO IT. But I'll probably hate myself in the morning afterward! 8D The main thing that's even made it so I'm willing to give the game a chance is that Hayashi went through the trouble of getting Masato Kato (the scenario writer of the original Ninja Gaiden/Ryukenden series on the...

    Location Test for DOA5, where should they be?

    When in doubt? Team Ninja could easily just follow the examples of Capcom and Namco. EVO for the sake of letting the fighting game community get a whack at it. Then consider at least ONE (if not both) of the two major Comic-cons (San Diego or New York), so that you can get both fighting game...

    As of now, DOA5 is at 15%

    Dead or Alive 5 is 15% complete, Famitsu reports in a preview article for the game this week. The game is due for PS360 release in 2012. Outside of the percentage, the magazine shows Hayate and Ryu Hayabusa, along with the new "Power Flow" system. While it looks like there may be no new info...
