[PLAYSTATION3] I'm Hooked on Dead or Alive 5!!

Hi gamers and collectors!

Recently I've been hooked on Dead or Alive 5, just to let you know I'm not dead :p... I tried so hard to unlock Alpha-152, which is where most of my time has ended up. Many of you who play DOA 5 will know how lengthy and time consuming gaining 300 titles really is. Once you have Alpha-152, it's a great sense of accomplishment.

I haven't touched online play until I unlocked Alpha-152, well that's not completely true - I played online like 3 times and that was it. I had my heart set to get those 300 titles, if you haven't unlocked Alpha-152 you maybe wondering how did I gain 300 titles? Well it's rather time consuming that's for sure, it was number crunching at best, finding out what titles were quicker to obtain than others and working from there.
You'll want to gain every move set for every character you can do, spend hours figuring out how to do the moves, a button-masher like myself it was very difficult to time certain moves but I got there in the end. It's all about patients to gain all those titles for training. You'll want to look through your misson list and see what titles you'd personally be able to obtain, I for one and will be honest here, can't finish survival on Hard EVEN with Alpha-152. It seems the AI just rip me apart by the 8th rival, just what the hell? On the topic of survival I believe for Christie's "rare" swimsuit you need to complete survival on legend for the swimsuit? No way I'd be able to pull that one off, I'm not too sure why some low-rank players (F+-E-) cannot defeat me playing as Alpha-152 online, but can beat 100 Legend rivals on survival without losing once!? Something is surely not right there...

So yes, I'll certainly share what titles were easy to obtain in a YouTube video shortly!

If you haven't got Dead or Alive 5, and you loving fighting games grab it! It's not all about the women any more in this game, really the fighting engine here is true, and works perfectly! I wouldn't be hooked on a genre I don't usually play if it wasn't the case. Everyone who knows me, knows I used to play blur all the time on the PS3, and that's the only game I'd play - now that's DOA5!

A few hours ago Tecmo released some information about the collector's edition for Dead or Alive 5 on their Facebook and Twitter also they included the information on their official Dead or Alive 5 website. In the next few hours or days we'll find out retailers worldwide that will be selling the collector's edition, as Tecmo has chosen selected retailers.
You get pretty great stuff with this collector's edition but sadly no figures, keychains or t-shirts. At least we get a poster... what of? I can't say...

Collection updates, Modern gaming hypes and other news.

Hi gamers!

With all my current health issues aside, my collection has been doing quite well. I do tend to break away from the Nintendo 64 and move more into modern gaming, but before I do that I also happen to jump back to getting a few XBOX games (they're dirt cheap at the moment). As much as I'm not too interested in modern gaming, there are plenty of squeals to game titles I've loved in previous generations, whether or not they will be good is an entirely different question.

So anyway, after I got back from doctors I opened the packages. The really fucked up thing was one of the sellers packed a game in a cereal box, and yes I'm cereal! A fucking cereal box, WHO THE FUCK WOULD DO THAT!? So without packing the game in a proper box he just slapped a fragile sticker on it hoping that would save it. Too bad it looks like it got stepped on by a dinosaur. Anyway, the game came a little crushed but it was okish, not too bad to the point that I would turn red... I should mention Vigilante 8 was the one in the cereal box...


With the way modern gaming has gone, it really hasn't impressed me much, although Dead or Alive 5, Lollipop Chainsaw and GTA 5 are catching my eye I guess it's not completely over for me. Hardware quality today is just getting worse and worse by the generation, I just don't understand why this is happening as gaming is such a great market... but I still want to be entertained while playing a video game, infact I think we all want to be. I'll be completely honest here, one game this generation has entertained me the most, and that's Blur (my logo isn't like it for nothing)... Many others I've just given up on. As quite a few of my friends are into Final Fantasy it's still good to hear that series is still going strong and going strong for so long. I haven't really experienced a great on going game series apart from Super Mario Bros, and even those are starting to go stale.

Hype is a word we see a lot of with games, and if IGN, Gametrailers and many other video game blog sites stopped posting rumours every week, people would have their own opinions on games, but too bad the general population of the world goes by what "video game generalist" say. A great game to have an example of is "Call of Duty" and yes I have played these games before, and I really don't see the major OMGZ0rd effect everyone else seems to get, it's another military simulator (if you can call it that) FPS. I love FPS games but CoD to me isn't that appealing I have to wet myself for. I think most of the fan base fail to see that it's pretty much the same game over and over again with a different cover, now don't get me wrong it's fine to love a game series but it would be great to hear about another game for a change...

People play games for fun, but others play it for it's popularity... and I think it's only going to get worse.
