For those of you that haven't gotten around to trying Tecmo's Dead or Alive 4 in the last seven months now is your chance as the demo has finally hit the Marketplace. DOA 4 is still the only "actual" fighting game available for Xbox 360 and features a cast of mostly female characters as well as others including Ryu Hayabusa from the Ninja Gaiden Series. The demo weighs in at 680.76MB so go ahead and check it out by downloading it over at the Marketplace.

 » WTF??????

why the hell are they releasing a demo for a game that not only sucks, but for a game thats almost 6 months old...

They should be a demo for dead rising, instead of a sh*tty DOA4 demo... I sware some of the people behind the marketplace have to be retarded...

BlaseCasper316, you my friend, are a dumbass. DOA4 is a phenomenal game.

BTW, learn to spell.

Casper, I cry in my pillow at night knowing I live in a world where dumbasses like you actually exist.

"They should be a demo?" WTF are you babbling about?

"sware" only completely worthless people would spell SWEAR SWARE. Go back to school would ya cuz u r going nowhere fast.

And I guarantee the only reason why you dislike DOA is because you, being a dumbass and all, are too worthless to get past the first fight.

EAT ME!!! the only good DOA game was DOA2 on the dreamcast, the rest of them are way overhypted...

BlaseCasper316, nobody cares.

Have you ever even played DOA4? If not, look up some reviews. It definatly doesn't suck. And the people that run the marketplace have no controll over when the developers want to release a demo. So, in the words of Red Foreman: you're a dumbass.

 » thanks

thanks for the heads up, but the article is a little mis-informed, since Ryu Hayabusa was ORIGINALLY in DOA, before Team Ninja cast him in the role of Ninja Gaiden. just a little FYI

 » ninja gaiden 1-3 on nes?

Ryu has been a ninja since 1988 on the nes ORIGINALLY, but hey not everyone remembers back that far =D

 » I stand corrected

I stand corrected, I DID remember the originals, yet I did not think they were made by Tecmo. After reading your post I done some research, and sure enough, Tecmo has created them, and the characters name is Ryu (though i could not find a last name, all the sites agree he eveloved into Ryu Hayabusa) thanks for the correction to my correction =)

Yeah, #1 you're an idiot...although I agree the DOA series isn't the greatest, it's not bad...and i've yet to try this game so i'm grateful for the release of the demo, as i'm sure are many others...just shut up if you have nothing constructive to add...

LOL you iwsh this game sucked.... TEKKEN sucks. DOA4 was fantastic, and just about every major publication agreed. DOnt be mad because you dont know how to play, and get reversed all day by scrubs, and cant win a single match online. Loser

   by BlaseCasper316 - 2006-07-24
 » lmao

 » BlaseCasper316 doesnt know what he is talking about.

Doa4 is an awesome game. It was the only reason to own a 360 untill Oblivion came out.

 » hmm

I own every Doa game including 4 and i honestly dont like it. The graphics aren't really that large of a step above Ultimate (and yes i own a hdtv)and the AI is just flat out cheap, which in my opinion is why the game turned so many people off.If you get past your fanboy bs the game just feels rushed and if you've had Doa4 since day 1 like i have, you would remember all the bugs and bs associated with the game.

   by timmage89 (Unregistered) - 2006-07-25
 » BlaseCasper316, please shut the hell up

If you say they have nothing new, then why did u like DOA 1-3 so much, and hate 4? And I'm pretty sure "seen" is spelled scene.

   by BlaseCasper316 - 2006-07-25
 » thanks Joe

thats what I was trying to point out... I didn;t mean the game sucks like as in a bad game, I meant the game just sucks in general... some people need to pull there heads out of there ass's and take a breath...

and timmage89, why dont you come here and make me shut up... thats nice talk coming from a 13 year old nerd from behind a big bad computer...

   by timmage89 (Unregistered) - 2006-07-25
 » Oh really...

13 year old nerd huh? You're the f*cking idiot that can't spell.

 » Wha?

"I didn;t mean the game sucks like as in a bad game, I meant the game just sucks in general"

What in the hell does that mean?

   by BlaseCasper316 - 2006-07-26
 » wha wha wha...

cry me a river, so I misspelled a fer words... got what I was talking about moron... and if you don't know what I was talking about the game sucking in general then your retarded... the AI is cheap and IMHO the whole fighting system used in the DOA games is button masher friendly... you like the game I don't learn to deal with it jerk off, thats life, if you can't take other people's opinions on any thing just do the world a favor right now and kill yourself... your just a waste of human existance...

   by timmage89 (Unregistered) - 2006-07-26
 » wow

I didn't mean wha, as in crying. I ment wha as in wtf. Seriously, is english your first language?

 » look at the comments

Look at all of the people that agree with me. You know BlaseCasper316, the point of message boards like this are for people to give thier opinion, and to dissprove or yell at anyone who dissagrees. It's fun to yell at people that have no idea who you are. And you have a large chance of getting yelled at by posting about how much DOA4 sucks (which is considered phenomenal by many people and critics), and using horrible english. So don't take it out on me, you brought this on yourself. Please take Shatterdome's advice:just shut up if you have nothing constructive to add.
