I watched the video and it is nothing amazing. I believe fight games have reached their full limit and to distinguish this from any other fighter is impossible. I cant distinguish this from DOA4 or Tekken 4 for that matter, until photo realistic abilities are achieved I am done with fighters.

calderra7199d ago

The reason this looks like DOA is because this game is COMPLETELY copying DOA. I've played quite a bit of Tekken, and this looks nothing like Tekken to me.

Especially the first fight. Lion uses the exact same Snake style as Christie from DOA4 in points. His movements come in the same rhythm as Christie's. He even has the same combos in spots- there's a move where he ends up facing backwards, exactly as Christie would in her exactly same combo. His finishing move in both fights (double kick in the air) is even the a signature a Christie move. The chick he's fighting (lazy) has flowing robes... just like DOA4's Kokoro, who uses the exact same fighting style.

Up next is Gen Fu and Leifang. (Eileen?) uses lots of Leifang's big sweeping/roundhouse kicks. Gen Fu man has lots of big charging moves. The next fight's too one-sided to get a feel for comparisons.

All in all, I see no Tekken and lots of DOA4. Well, DOA4 with barely any counters or throws... so it's really more like a feature-stipped version of DOA4.

Then again, Tekken's always also had incredibly complex movelists that take more time to memorize than you'll actually spend playing the game. So the people playing here probably just haven't bothered to memorize any movelists and thus are working with the half-dozen moves you can manage to pull off without spending an hour experimenting with the controls.

by virtua fighter or tekken for that matter ne more. ever since i played doa 3 for the first time doa has been the best fighting game to me hands down. graphics wise it may not look that good but DOA4 gameplay wise owns every fighter out there. but as i was saying im not impressed by this game at all any more like i used to be. fighting games will begin to look better and better in the future but they might also just lose their gameplay egde becuase they are to worried about graphics. we'll just see what happens to the fighting genre in the next few years i guess.

THAMMER17200d ago

Looks alot like DOA. But I do like the colors they do not look as vivid a DOA but they are more earthy. To bad I will not ever own this game.

andy capps7200d ago

Hasn't this been out in arcades longer than DOA4? And if so, wouldn't it be more applicable that DOA4 looks like this? Neither are my cup of tea, but wanted to bring that up for the sake of argument.

LiquifiedArt7200d ago

to Say "Looks like DOA" is ridiculous, DOA is a newbie game, when virtua fighter has been out forever, and was the first 3d Fighter in the world.

2ndly, A fighting game is a fighting game, what do you want.. Seriously its a fighting game, a game that tests your skill, strategy,timing and execution against another players.

THAMMER17200d ago

Talk about hurt feelings man you should to chill. And why are you talking like that. Get real dude you do not run S#!t. You need to back up a few feet.

calidredz7200d ago

I could care which game came out first they all look alike. Who came first is a aspect that seems so miniscule to me, the point is they need to add more depth to fighters. I am no longer 16 yrs old.

Panzer Dragoon Saga HD ?? Shining Force 4 or 3 hd ?? Phantasy Star V ??..................

ZeekQuattro258d ago

Panzer Dragoon maybe. I don't see Sega touching those other ips unfortunately. I at least wish they would do a Shining Force collection that includes SFIII.

Pergele257d ago

Shining Force 3 collection or 4 with 2D graphics will always be my most wanted game.

Agent75257d ago

Please, no RPGs. Sick of all these SEGA games for the Japanese market.

Lightning77258d ago

jet Set Radio, Gunvalkyrie, Otogi, please let it be. Jetset is by far the most realistic one to show up. One can hope for the other 2.

Agent75257d ago

SEGA's game catalogue has been a bit naff after the Xbox 360 and PS4. Stop those Mega Drive/Genesis collections and move onto arcade classics, some which never got released on consoles. Not sure what's happened to the new Crazy Taxi and Golden Axe etc., but the likes of Virtua Racing, Super Hang On, ESWAT and maybe even Alien Storm are due sequels.

FinalFantasyFanatic257d ago

Persona 6 and Skies of Arcadia remaster/port please, there's heaps you could surprise me with, and I'd probably be happy with it.

What is?

Witcher III, Slay the Spire, Virtua Fighter 5, and Sonic Mania are an excellent lineup of titles to add.

Smok911821d ago (Edited 1821d ago )

Lol thanks for your thoughts. Let’s now collectively disagree.

waderae1821d ago

How can you disagree with virtua fighter 5? You haven't played it. It's not out.

Hawk1986661820d ago

All the disagreeing are fools. You thinking adding a 6yrs old game thats timed, that's on sale nearly all the time for cheap is a great addition as the main game?? 2 of the games are previous PS+ games so a lot will already have them. And Virtua Fighter nearly everyone will already have that through plus! You're all Clueless

SegaSaturn6691821d ago

Those are great titles. Real treat.

Rocosaurus1821d ago

Love witcher 3, but that game is six years old.

Eidolon1820d ago

Great great game. Would need another playthrough (Gwent and horse racing) to get the platinum, plus I never bought/played the expansions.

monkey6021821d ago

Slay the Spire is an incredible game

Highrevz1821d ago

Agreed but I almost slept on it if I’m honest.

It’s like a traditional turn based RPG without the dramatic story. Monster Train is another good game if you need something similar to Slay the Spire.

monkey6021821d ago

I've heard that actually. Not played it yet though. Good shout!

I'd love to see Sega bring back Eternal Champions.

BlackTar1872267d ago

Why is there no Star Gladiator or Battle Arena Toshinden?

Terry_B2267d ago

Because the other 10 mentioned series were better. Star Gladiator 2 was just the first part with more characters, Battle Arena Toshinden went really downhill after the 2nd game.

BlackTar1872267d ago (Edited 2267d ago )

o got it. Cause you said those games aren't as good... Got it.

since Battle 1&2 were pretty damn good and Star Gladiator 1 was very good those sound like perfect games to remake.

Also saying a fighting game is the same as it's predecessor with more characters sums up like 90% of all sequel fighting games.

Also BA3 was not a bad game and wasn't given a bad reception.

Skuletor2267d ago (Edited 2267d ago )

I think licensing is one of the major reasons Fight for NY hasn't been ported, since its original release. Def Jam had a poll on their Twitter a year or two ago asking if people would be interested in a new entry to the series. A surprise next gen release with AKI developing it would be cool

Silly gameAr2267d ago

Definitely yes to Weaponlord, Bloody Roar, Rival Schools, Power Stone, Bushido Blade, Darkstalkers, and the Def Jam games. I was really big into fighting games when I was younger. I would Like Primal Rage, B.A,T., and Eternal Champions to come back as well.

BlackTar1872267d ago

Primal Rage was good. There was also another game that was kinda like Weaponlord that I used to really like but I can't remember the name.

Ready to Rumble was cool back int he day as well

Ninver2267d ago

Rival schools and virtual fighters
