I would have gotten it, but it's not available anywhere around here... I just picked up Perfect Dark Zero, though, but DOA4 will be next.

I just picked up DOA yesterday, it's pretty fun some of the games psychic's seem a little rediculous but thats expected http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif but what i really got a kick out of was the fact that the game was released over a month from the original date http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nono.gif but one of stage's has an scrolling score board with the text congratulation's of the xbox 360 laurch scrolling acroos it http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

At least it doesn't say "Xenon" any more.

And the physics... Give the game more of an anime-ish look (don't think too much about that), so it's fitting.

I'm just glad they toned down the power on the counters. Honestly it was kind of frustrating when the AI could take you down with just 3-4 counters depending on the character.

And I think the scrolling messege on that one level should say "Congratulations on succesfully finding an Xbox 360!"

Haha yeah, it'd be great if there was a feature to change what it says. i'd put it to something along the lines of "you got owned" or "im eating my head" please tell me someone knows what that last one is from

[Kent]

I read somewhere that there's a scrolling sign somewhere in one of the levels that displays the motto you put on your Gamercard...

Oh come on! That is what I used against the weaklings who used novice moves on DOA Ultimate! I don't have a 360 but..I intend on getting one eventually I always loved getting a high counter with Helena and hearing my opponent go: "I should've expected that!" as 1/3 of their health bar dissappears. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

OOOOOoooo...sounds good! Where do you live?

But seriously, the only reason I don't have a 360 is I'm waiting till they 1) get all the bugs out and 2) lower the price at least a little.

in the end its your decision to post personal information on the internet but i'd have suggested using the private message feature instead http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

and i thought counters were the very essence of DoA. if you dont know how to avoid a counter, then go play tekken.

DoA: Counters (not anymore?)
Soul Calibur: Block, Block, Block, Cheap Move
Tekken: Combos!
Guilty Gear: Speed

But yeah, I want to try out the new DoA sometime. But... hey... can the DoA boss possibly be cheaper than Boss mode I-No or Gold Mode Justice? I think not!

[Alucard_Zer0]

i wasnt actually expecting anyone to come over. and the counter system feels different then the others i use to throw them out left and right it feels off for some reason.

[Kent]

The window of opportunity for counters has been about halved in DOA4 (about half as many frames of your counter animation are actually effective), and I believe I read that you have to press different directions, depending on if you're countering a punch or a kick, now... (I think it said you have to use forward directions, including diagonals, for all kicks, and away directions for punches)
