Dead Or Alive is a fighting franchise well known throughout the video game industry, for ever so controversial reasons (look right) or plain simply awesome fighting mechanics? I say a mixture of both. Dead Or Alive is one of the more frantic fighters in a sense of being able to pull-off endless combination of moves that all seem to string together rather well.
Personally I was introduced to the franchise come Dead or Alive 3 for the XBOX which launched March 14th, 2002 in all European continents including the UK of course. I remember myself being astonished at the time of first playing the game; amazing graphically and an incredibly in-depth fighting system. A good amount of time was spent practising my skills and competing on a regular basis with my brother, good times indeed. Oblivious to me when first playing the game some many years ago was the fact that pretty much every female combatant were overly represented in a way deemed to be sexual.
You would come to think that the series creator Tomonobu Itagaki and developer Team Ninja have a keen eye for certain women assets. The series creator was reported for sexual harassment on a fellow female employee in 2006. Apparently Itagaki had be at it since 2003 with the women in question. Fortunately Itagaki was later deemed innocent of such charges. Not being the judgemental type I couldn't care less about what allegedly happened, as long as Itagaki continued consistently in making great games.
Itagaki did in fact decide to resign from Tecmo for unforeseen reasons and additionally went to go as far as suing the company for withholding a bonus promised for his previous work he had accomplished.
To date I've only been able to get my hands on playing Dead or Alive 3 and 4. The fourth being more visually superior and overall more refined in combat alongside new fighters available. Reading up on latest opinions and reviews about Tecmo's newest release of the franchise Dead Or Alive: Dimensions, I convinced myself for a much earned worthy purchase, and yes regardless of actually looking into buying the title with reviews and so forth in the end I would of most likely given in to my cravings.
Dead or Alive will continue to be one of my most loved fighting franchises, equal to the Soul Calibur series which I cannot get enough of.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
