Here we go again

[Opaque]

I heard about this game in GI a few months ago... Apparently its been in development beore the DOA game was anounced to the public, so they didn't really bite of the idea, with any luck this game will actually have ome voleyball to back up the hot ladies...

Me. If they are banking off the Outlaw theme again then I'm assuming Outlaw Golf did decent enough to warrant the publishers shooting with it again.

I was wondering if anybody had some solid numbers.

I know the guys that made both, and they started Volleyball before Golf was anywhere near out the door. Did you think they made the game in 4 months?

That is a blanket statement that i just don't agree with. There are a lot of bad Japanese, European and anywhere else character designs. There are also a lot of very attractive character designs from the US.

Speaking of unnatractive, did you see down-syndrome Hitomi in the DOA:XBV opening movie? *shudder*

I'm not even going to dignify this thread with a post...besides this one.*

Under 9,000 units sold? Yikes.

Heh, it's odd that the in game character models in DOAXVB look better than the ones in the FMV. They should have used the same models and just upped the poly count for the pre-rendered ones. I'm guessing it was out sourced or something since the FMV endings in DOA3 look much better.

Anyway, I really can't stand the 'cartoonish' character designs of the Outlaw series. Their twisted, fun house faces make the bile rise in my throat, so I don't think I could bring myself to play it. I did manage to play through the demo of Outlaw Golf, but boredom and the freakshow nature of the characters kept me from playing again.

And the other game is made by Acclaim. If you don't know what that means, you haven't been paying attention.

Man, that figure sucks. More 3rd party companies are going to start pulling from GC if those numbers don't start going up.

My Beach Spikers and Gamecube will do just fine, for a volleyball fix. Besides, Sega's game was the originator, the others just bit on the idea.

Not to mention that Beach Spikers is an actual solid game. These other pretenders eat Beach Spikers' sand.
