The first 10 minutes: Dead or Alive Xtreme 2
2006-11-26 15:53:52 by BlimBlim
Dead or Alive Extreme Volleyball was one of my favorite games on the Xbox. It wasn't a deep game at all, but it was, first and foremost, a great way to kill some time when coming home from work. Getting a sequel on the 360 was great news for me so I preordered the game as soon as possible. But now after a few hours of playing the game I'm quite disappointed. Between the graphics far from being as impressive as I'd expect from Team Ninja (and at 30 fps!), the fact that the game has now become a bit too complex to just play and enjoy it for a few minutes of fun and an overall lack of polish, I can't help but think that DOAX2 was just a quick cash-in Team Ninja rushed out of the door to be in time for Christmas. I can't say it's an awfully bad game, but it's basically just the sum of average to OK small games, linked with numerous and very annoying loading screens.

We have discovered how to get money really easily in this game:

Over 28 mil in like 20 minutes, even faster if you are lucky, but guaranteed. This should make the game more relaxing =P. Now I can just chill in the minigames without being pissed out of my MIND that I lost at volleyball or something and wasted a day slot cuz I still cant afford some FREAKIN SUIT! =). I can buy every suit in one shot after this method and focus on the REALLY hard/necessary part, which is gift giving (you have to get every suit on one girl to unlock the virtual pictorial mode - maybe also the offline minigames). Enjoy.

I really like how you guys post your opinions as well along with screens and videos!
It makes you guys feel more like gamers than journalists!
Keep it up!
