El reciclaje de trajes es increible. Un mismo traje 4 veces, y uno de Bunny a Mila.

Los últimos resultados financieros trimestrales de Tecmo Koei han deparado a la compañía unos 10,9 millones de beneficios operativos, en gran parte gracias a las 580.000 unidades vendidas a nivel mundial de Dead or Alive 5, título de lucha que apareció en PlayStation 3 y Xbox 360 el pasado 28 de septiembre.

Otros juegos que lanzó la editora durante el anterior trimestre en Japón han sido Samurai Warriors Chronicle 2nd para 3DS, Warriors Orochi 3 Special para PSP y Nobunaga´s Ambition para PSVita. En lo que respecta a títulos lanzados en occidente se encuentran Pokemon Conquest de DS y One Pice: Pirate Warriors de PlayStation 3.

Tecmo Koei and Team NINJA have released details on Dead or Alive 5′s day 1 patch. The update addresses a few online multiplayer issues and contains some balance tweaks as well. Hopefully this patch alleviates at least some of the issues I had with the pre-launch netcode.

-Online Mode
During the pre-battle entrance animation, each character’s Grade and Title will be displayed.
The matchmaking system has been improved so it is easier to find and join a match.
In Lobby Match, the Random filter will display within the client’s settings rather than the host’s.

Los responsables de juegos como Dead or Alive o Ninja Gaiden han hablado un poco de sus planes que tienen para la siguiente generación de consolas. Actualmente ya están experimentando con ellas.


“¡Si les digo cuales son ahora entonces no van a estar esperando nada en el futuro! Pero podemos decirles algo, es algo que no está en Dead or Alive 5″.

Agregó que una de las cosas en las que se enfocarán será el juego en línea.

“En línea, hay muchas cosas que queremos hacer. Actualmente tienes lobbys en los que la gente puede reunirse, pero el número de personas es limitado. Nos gustaría ver a toda la gente en el mundo pudiendo reunirse y pelear juntos, como si todo el mundo estuviera en la misma arcadia”.

“Estamos experimentando con eso, pero por lo pronto hasta ahí les diré” concluye.

El conocido Pro Player norteamericano, Carl "Perfect Legend" White, comparte las primeras impresiones que tuvo acerca de Dead or Alive 5. Básicamente lo elogió en varios aspectos, y hasta se animó a considerarlo el mejor juego de pelea en 10 años.

I will post a long post on what I think of the game but I just want to make a quick statement for those getting into the game and of course those who have bashed the game in the past:


This is not the same game you have played. Let me go over key changes that have been made from DOA4 to DOA5.

1. .>>>>Hold damage<<<< this is something EVERYONE complains about well let me tell you the damage has been decreased significantly. DOA4 introduced different hold damage for when you are put into critical stun so when you are stunned your holds will deal less damage but when you are not stunned the damage isn't decreased.

Here are the damage rates for a Hi Counter, Counter and Normal hold outside of stun for Hayabusa's punch hold which is the most damaging hold in DOA4 and DOA5.

- normal 75pts
- counter 93pts
- hi counter 112pts

The difference here is that Hi Counter Hold is in DOA4 it is a 1-4 frame window but in DOA5 it is a 1-2 frame window so you are more than likely going to get a Counter hold from a hold because of the timing difference. So in other words to get hi counter damage you really need to be even more precise. In DOA4 you had a lot more leeway for a Hi Counter Hold.

Now during stun the damage for an izuna is in DOA5.
- normal 60pts
- counter 75pts
- hi counter 90pts

Also keep in mind for you to pull off an Izuna punch hold they have changed the command from single direction to double direction making Izuna an advanced hold. Let me show you the damage on Hayabusa's regular punch holds.

Outside of Critical:
- normal 50 pts
- counter 62 pts
- hi counter 75 pts

Inside of Critical:
- normal 40 pts
- …
