Help, I'm lagging & I can't get up!
Pros = top notch all round, great training tutorial, you can tag
Cons = in game and online lag
Worth = wait for the lag to be fixed then get yourself a brand new copy
When I say top notch all around. I mean stunning graphics and music/sound effects with deep gameplay. You can tag team in this just like how Tekken Tag Tournament 2 does. Fighting developers should follow DOA5's very detail tutorial. There are 24 playable characters and no you can't really customize them or make your own fighter like some other games. The story jumps around too much for you to really care, but who is here for the story? Anyways, my only grip about this game is the in game lag (when you have throwdowns on) and the online lag even if they are in the same area as you. Other than that you can get a solid amount of gameplay and replay value out of this title. This is for all types of gamers and it has a difficult setting so don't worry.
The artbook gives some written insight from the staff about the concepts and designs of the characters while offering beautiful pics to go along with it. That and the poster was probably the best part of the whole collection. The sound track was okay and one thing they forgot to mention is you get a extra code for a helpful kasumi guide.

something is missing
the game feels wonderful the controls are smooth, ad the new graphics are wonderful to look at. with dirt water and s sweat now showing the fights feel more real after someone wins, the new story mode is nice nd helpful in some ways, but it isnt as fullfilling as indivual endings for each character. I also miss the small objects in stages like rails or tables that you could bounce your opponent over and jump over them after with a sweet combo.

Not like other DOA's
A whole new approach to the DOA style. New moves, new styles, new faces. The story mode is all combined and has more of a tutorial feel to it. No story in arcade mode or final boss like the others. This is a whole new approach that I feel left the game unfinished. No Leon or Ein costume :( maybe later in DLC... Moves are easy to pick up and play, and the graphics look great even in camera mode with the swimsuits unlocked ;P I loved DOA for the individual character story, so now that that's been removed I can only hope they bring it back in DOA6.

DOA Forever
I remember when i played my first DOA game on xbox ,i was totally in love with the game and i always was playing it day and night.
At that time the game was DOA3 and i also got my hands on the DOA ultimate and the xtreme beach volleyball and i loved all of them, also i never bough the xbox 360 but that din't stoped me from playing DOA 4 i fell in love even more .
Now i just recently purchased the ps3 and when i heard that DOA5 was going to be out for that system i went nuts and inmediately tough of preordering it.
Now i will just have to wait till my bhirtday on sept 25 to go and get my present called Dead or Alive 5

DOA HAS RETURNED
The apointed time is just about here in which DOA will return once again in order to be back on the playstation system. I can't wait until it's finally here; it's been a long time coming. I've waited so long for DOA to return. Not another fighting game has come close to this one. I know it'll be worth the wait, it has to be really good for them to bring it out this late. Like I said earlier; DOA HAS RETURNED!!!!!

The long wait is JUST ABOUT OVER!!! The days are flying by to the apointed hour in which DOA SHALL BE REBORN!!! Everything that I've read about the game is exciting. When I get it and go home I'll be playing it non-stop for days. I'M GLAD DOA IS BACK!!!
