Six years have passed since Dead or Alive 4 and the figth installment of Dead or Alive makes its debut on PlayStation 3. Helena Douglas has now taken over DOATEC and hosts the fifth DOA Tournament. New features for this game includes highly improved graphics over 4. The characters looks more human than ever and the details are simply amazing. The game also introduces a power blow, which is similar to a super move in other fighting games. The DOA series is well known for its interactive stages. Cliffhanger makes it possible to kick another player off an edge. Two new characters are introduced in the game. Mila is an MMA fighter with a fighting style similar to Zack. Rig uses Taekwondo and is a great character for combos. Dead or Alive 5 also features guest appearances by Akira, Sarah and Pai from the popular Virtua Fighter series. The new Story mode lets the player experience all the game from all characters perspective. It also helps the player to get used to the controls. It's similar to the previous titles and the game features an excellent online mode. The Collector´s edition includes a steel box, artbook, poster and exclusive downloadable costumes. To sum it up, Dead or Alive 5 is an excellent fighting game. The only downside is that it feels like the same game as DOA 4.

Since Dead or Alive 2, I've waited in expectation for another DOA game on the PlayStation platform, And now, with the great Collector's Edition, I can once again enjoy a great Anime-like fighting game! With a powerfull fighting mechanics, cute and sexy girls that even sweat, life-like graphics, and a nice soundtrack, DOA 5 is a great hardcore-old-school highly recommended fighting game!

Perfect game, and really nice Collector's Edition. All the bonuses are great, and the game is fantastic!
