    Tigers in the middle of the stage, people being shout out giant circus machines, fros getting knocked off…

    …what… is this?

    More importantly, why do I want to play it so bad?

    Chun-li reference at the end there? Really?

    OK.

    • http://evolcorp.net/ The Orz

      Yumi Tōma did voice Chun-Li in one of the Street Fighter movies, so it’s…not as big of a stretch? Maybe?That being said, I could swear Lei Fang did something similar in previous DoA games but it’s been a long, long while since I played one.

      I’m pretty sure Lei Fang has always done that in every DoA game….I don’t know if it’s supposed to be a “nod” or a “slap” towards Chun-li, but yeah.

    wat have i just witnessed lol! i thought the game took itself seriously… guess it doesnt take itself THAT seriously! on a side note that better just be a demo costume for zack, cant b seeing that disgusting costume for that character in the game…

    • Cylith

      Did you forget about his Neon Tellitubbies suit in DOA4?

      • http://www.facebook.com/people/Yan-Zhao/10516382 Yan Zhao

        If you taunt, his antenna lit up!

    • http://twitter.com/HooliganCombo James Reilly

      every character has at least 6 costumes don’t worry

    • http://evolcorp.net/ The Orz

       I, for one, still like his Shadowman costume from DOA2. He actually looked pretty badass and his taunt would cause flames to shoot out of the skull in his chest.

  • BeholdMyPower

    Okay, I’m really liking this ‘fighting game entertainment’ thing if it means all the stages are this awesome. The interactivity is really creative, can’t wait to see what else this game has in store. And shoutouts to dat lean.

    WTF happens at 0.32?

    • http://twitter.com/cuesta_javier Javier Cuesta

       0:38 is best

  • http://twitter.com/srslygtfo Mr. X

    The Chun Li “Yatta”-like victory pose at the end was pretty cool.

  • http://www.facebook.com/carlos.a.pascual.3 Carlos Angel Diokno Pascual

    I know that’s Zack but, what’s with the Ronald McDonald outfit?

    • http://twitter.com/HooliganCombo James Reilly

      He always has wtf outfits lol, but don’t worry each character would be getting 6 outfits

      • chauda

        And they don’t force you to pay for new outfits like Capcom! haha

  • venomryu

    damn with all those faints zack might be the must frighting char to go against if someone knows what he doing he or she would own the online fights in this game and the smooth criminal taunt i can see people getting piss of at that seeing how high hits moves can just miss him lol reply if you think i am right

  • http://twitter.com/EagleSeeker CarlsD

    Am I hearing things, but does Lei Fang have Mai’s (from King of Fighters) voice actor now? Interesting, this doesn’t happen in fighting games. That’s probably Zack’s alternate costume, wouldn’t make since if it was his original.

    • http://www.facebook.com/people/Daniel-Barron/100000988307029 Daniel Barron

       Norio Wakamoto has been the voice actor for M. Bison (CvS onward), Rugal (King of Fighters 2k2) and Johnny in Guilty Gear. Happens more often than you may think.

      • Drunken_Snake

        Also Yoshimitsu, Igniz and someone from Samurai Showdown I think. The guy’s in everything. :)

    • http://evolcorp.net/ The Orz

       Pretty sure it’s still Yumi Tōma (Ivy from Soul Calibur 1-3 and Xiaoyu from Tekken). Could be wrong, though…

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Justin-Brown/1362756791 Justin Brown

    how come zack always have to such a weirdo in DOA games…atleast he owns an island with nothing but girls lol

    • http://twitter.com/oBLACKSTARo oBLACKSTARo

      didn’t it get blown up?

  • Kaihedgie

    WHAT HAVE I JUST WITNESSED?

  • NyuBomber

    TIGER!

    People can talk about DOA, and hate all they want, but we ALL have to admit that this game is doing shit that’s never been done (at the very least, done this well) in a fighting game before. Team Ninja is REALLY destroying the barrier between cg movies we normally find in a 3D fighter, and what you actually get when you play said game. I think when you consider that along side the fact that DOA definitely has some depth to it, this game is looking pretty damn good all around.

    • Kaihedgie

       This kinda has already been done before in the Budokai games, actually. It just looks more seamless here

      • http://twitter.com/EagleSeeker CarlsD

         No, that’s never been done in the DragonballZ Budokai games.

        • Kaihedgie

           I’m not really understandin’. What’s different about the stage hazards in this game that’s already been done in other games or am I missin’ the point?

          • http://twitter.com/HooliganCombo James Reilly

            Stage hazards have been done for awhile now..However this game in general is pushing it in the amount of high quality stage effects/interactions during the fight making itself unique

          • Kaihedgie

             Well that I understand, but it still isn’t anything new. It’s just far more elaborate than anything done before.

          • http://www.facebook.com/people/Erik-Argetsinger/100000075287626 Erik Argetsinger

            I’ve never seen anything in a budokai game remotely similar to this, although I never messed with them much to be honest. If there’s something to narrow it down to I’d say its that the amount of stage hazards are so varied in what they can do that makes this unique. Cliffhangers with multi-tiered environments, partitions you can knock people over, explosive walls that give a re-launch on impact, and… whatever the HELL just happened in that stage. Too many to list…. it’s a whole lot of insanity.

          • Kaihedgie

             Yeah, that’s pretty much been done before. In Budokai 3, you could knock someone into a nearby plain where a dinosaur would nom on them for a bit before knocking them back into the playing field with their tail. People seem to have also forgotten the Freefall Kombat mechanic shown in MKVSDC where you could continue to fight when falling from one tier to another or how you could run someone through buildings to wrestle for an advantage.

            In reply to Kaihedgie,

            No one’s forgetting about the MKvsDC mechanic, they just don’t want to remember.

       Power Stone 2 has way more going on.

    Dat cannonball victory at the end was priceless. If someone was to win that way in the Grand Finals of a DOA tournament the lulz would be never ending.

    I think purposely trying to knock of Zack’s stupid afro will be the highlight of my first day playing this.

    Delicious Lei-Fang!  UH, is Zack no longer Muay Thai?  He was doing a lot of Drunken Boxing stuff.

    • http://twitter.com/FreeStepDodge FreeStepDodge.com

      He’s always been ‘Self-Taught Muay Thai’ which gives them the freedom to do whatever the fuck they want for the style.

    Did Lei Fang’s voice change? Been so long since I played DoA to remember.
