Dead or Alive 3

Dead or Alive 3 Gameplay:  (190-200)  It doesn't get much better than this.  The gameply is simply unbeatable.    The playability is amazing with its immeasurable depth and all the tags and counter moves.  Its no longer the "Get Hit and Then Stand Right Back Up" kind of game.  When you kick some one's ass...You Kick their ass... Literally.  Sound: (190-200) Makes you feel like your right their in the game.  The music compliments the surreal environment in the game.  Each level has its own track and it sounds beautiful.  Not only does sound have to deal with music but also with the extreme fighting in this game.  As you perform moves on your opponent(s) you can tell if thats gonna hurt in the morning.  I love the sound of screams... Graphics: (200-200) What else could I really say besides...KICK ASS!  This game is the measuring stick on how far graphic technology has come.  Thats right no flaws what-so-ever.  It shows off its beautiful characters, its realistic animation and its immensive environments.  Even if you're an X-Box Hater, you have to be extremely impressed with these graphics. Controls: (190-200)  Very Impressing.  Grab  a controller and start hitting the buttons and you'll be satisfied.  You should take your time and learn how to perform the well executed counters and throws.  The thing about this game that amazes me is that after hours with the same character I was still discovering moves.  Just look at the command list and you'll know what I'm talking about.  You can perform the most difficult of moves and knock them out...or you could throw careless punches and the computer will pitch you like a snowball. Story Mode: (130-200)  Not much here but you can't complain.  What is great about this game is that there is next to no loading time!!!  When I used to play my PSOne (C'mon I know at one point we all did) I could go eat 5 Course Meal Before the freakin' thing loaded.  This is one big step for the Impatient Gamers of America! Overall: (900-1000)  Simply Amazing.  If you get DOA3 you will not regret it.  With its amazing graphics, its awesome controlling n Gameplay, and its ok storyline...it will keep you playing for hours.  This is one big hit for the X-Box.  Play DOA3 and Remember....
