Last Round outselling because it is

-one of the few current generation fighting games available
-it is packed with content
-is more fast paced than other fighters
-is more accessible on the surface level than other fighters
But more importantly, it is selling because:

-IT'S A GOOD GODDAMN FIGHTING GAME AND WHETHER IT HAD TITS OR NOT WOULD NOT HAVE INFLUENCED MY PURCHASE. I GOT LAST ROUND DAY 1 ON PS4 AFTER ONLY HAVING PLAYE...

Remasters don't take as much time as you think. The Last of Us Remaster took only 9 weeks if I remember correctly and was worked on by a handful of people or so. If it was the full team, they could have done it in under a week easy. It's really not that hard or time-consuming to do in comparison to making entirely new games. I personally love these remasters because if I can get a great game with even better graphics, then why the heck not? It's still the same game as before only ...

You mean a remaster of a remaster

I was actually going to get Hardline day 1 until they announced the B.S. $50 premium crap. I'm done with buying incomplete games. 10 years ago, you paid $50 for a ps2, GameCube, or Xbox game and didn't have to worry about missing out on anything or being at a disadvantage because developers and publishers couldn't take advantage of DLC and now they are and I'm sick of it. I'm not saying DLC is inherently a bad thing, but I'm sick of how many games are released and feel...

"On PS4, Last Round looks incredibly polished. Close up, you can literally see the sweat drip on faces, and environments are just as detailed. The developers have upgraded Last Round as much as humanly possible graphically, and so far Dead or Alive 5: Last Round is the best-looking fighter available."

It's just the last gen version running at 1080p with slightly softer skin and slighter better self shadowing on the characters. Environments still have extremely l...

that's not what they're supposed to be. They're supposed to be interactive movies. The problem for Quantic Dream with Heavy Rain was inconsistent voice acting. That's a legitimate issue. The inability to play as much as you want like a normal game is not an issue and they will not change that. They don't make traditional video games and I don't want them to.

Would you point to gore as a negative aspect of Mortal Kombat? The tits do nothing to the game. They do not take away from the excellent fighting that is buried there. If Dead or Alive 5 Last Round es the exact same game, but all the girls had smaller tits and none of the clothing was sexual or revealing, I'm sure the reviewer would have given it a higher score even though it has zero impact on the game. It's just something that is synonymous with the franchise. It's not going awa...

It has become more sexualized, but its fighting mechanics have become more in depth over each entry. 5 is the most skillful DOA game to date while also being the one with the most fan service. There's nothing wrong with tits. It's just part of the franchise like excessive over the top gore is part of Mortal Kombat. There's nothing wrong with tits as long as it doesn't interfere with the fighting and it really hasn't. The series has become deeper with each entry so nah. The...

Any well-made horror game can surpass any horror movie. There is no fear in passively watching what happens to others in a movie. Thre is fear in YOU yourself being put in these situations and the possibility of being harmed creates much more urgency, stress, and genuine horror than a movie. None of these games would make better horror movies.

First paragraph and I already noted a pretty big mistake. It says there are 5 new fighters...there are 2 new fighters

Thank goodness it's getting a graphical update. The visuals are pretty bad. They aren't too much better than Tekken Tag Tournament 2 from what I can tell

Harping on dead or alive for its sexualization of females is like harping on mortal kombat for its gore and violence. They're just a part of the franchise. Focus on the actual GAME

The "soft engine" is very subtle and you won't notice unless you compare side by side very closely. DOA 5 Last Round on current gen is pretty much all the exact same assets from the last gen version, just running at 1080p. Those amazing character models for the females was what they looked like last gen. The faces look very good, but the male models and ALL the stages look really bad in comparison. I love the game. I've already spent 102 hours on the PS4 version, but it is v...

The Order: 1886 is excellent? Ha ha ha. It's not a horrible game like a lot of people make it out to be, but excellent? HA

DOA 5 Last Round has bugs, but it's not broken. After clearing arcade, sometimes it will not let you press next to continue through the menhs. You will have to quit the game. The other issue it has is 4 player online tag team matches are virtually unplayable. I only played the original release of Dead or Alive 5 way back in September 2012 and this Last Round has had me hooked. I'd give it easily an 8. It just came our Tuesday and I have already spent 80 hours playing it.

@NiteX
DOA 5 Ultimate took some features that were introduced in DOA 5 Plus, so no. What you said is completely incorrect
