At least you guys have actual tournaments... ever since @Tulkas left for England, the DOA community in Venezuela was reduced to offline gathering at my place in Caracas and another guy's house in a city five hours away from here. Pisses me off that while I'd kill to be able to attend these kind...
You guys seriously need to play Last Round on PS4 if you think DOA4 looks better. Hell not even the PS3/360 versions looks worse than DOA4. What's wrong with you¿
Note that if you block fast characters, they're usually at negative frames. That should be your chance to regain offensive. I do it a lot with Rachel and Tina and works fine.
