Summary: STILL REALLY AWESOME AFTER SIX YEARS 9.5 OUT OF 10
Comment: What's sad about some of today's games is the fact that some are still looking like ugly PS2 games unlike the slick graphics of modern PS2 and Xbox games. One thing that still amazes me about Dead or Alive 3 is the fact it still looks better than a lot games to this day... and it was made six years ago! The fighting mechanics are still awesome and manages to outclass a lot of fighters to this day. The characters are still awesome and the unlockables are still awesome, and the ending videos are still excellent to watch. The only problem with this game are small control issues, other than that there is nothing wrong with this awesome game.

Summary: Oooh... shiney pretty people....
Comment: DOA3 is a great game. One of the best to come out on the Xbox, inmyhonestopinionplzkthx. The graphics are tight, especially for a launch title. Lighting and background graphics are amazing, and while there are a few touchy things(one dimensional clothing), overall this is a gorgeous game.
Speaking of the graphics, in response to certain people saying the game is too ' trashy', I have this to say in caps to prove my point:
IT'S CALLED MARKETING.
How else are you going to get lonely nerds living in their mom's basement to buy your game? Add Kasumi, of course. Gen Fu's not gonna get them. You need some double X chromosomes to spice things up. It helps that they're scantily clad, of course. Besides, if you don't want your [...] kid playing it, DON'T BUY IT FOR HIM. YOU have the power. IT has a teen rating. Look at the reasons for the rating, it says ' mature sexual themes' RIGHT THERE. Don't act like this snuck up on you.
That being said, I'd like to move on to gameplay.
Story mode is your classic ' choose a character and go around in their story beating people up until the big boss battle' mode. Simple, but effective. The progressive battles don't get much harder, but the final boss battle does get you off your rear to try to think of how to beat him. It takes a couple tries, but it's worth it. Throughout there are gorgeous cutscenes to pass the time. And then there are the lovely movies you get in reward for beating story mode. Ahh.... beautiful.
Multiplayer is done well, with a good couple modes for you to play in, what with tag team (versus/normal), one on one(versus/normal), etc etc. It's fun, but I'd like to see more costume choices. Kasumi has the most with five, and that's just not enough. More unlockables in general would make this game even better.
Overall, this is how it evens out:
Pros: Great graphics
Interesting characters
Good multiplayer
Kasumi's assets
Cons: Not enough unlockables
Story mode gets repetetive
Not enough tag team stages
Worth the money, especially now.

Summary: Great game, but it's missing something...
Comment: Dead or Alive 3 is a great game, but overall, it seems to be lacking something. After you've completed the game with every character, unlocked all costumes (which isn't real hard), there isn't much else to do. If you enjoy the DOA series, give this game a try, but know that there isn't much that sets this game apart from all the other fighting games out there.

Summary: Don't got one
Comment: Well this review is short first of all if you got no friends then do not buy this game but if you do then buy cause the multiplayer is what makes you come back for more the graphics are alright and everythings plays good but for me its those games when you play when your friends come and that is why I give it a 5 for fun but overall 4 cause even when my friends come we play this for 30 minutes then get bored!
Verdict: 4.0 out of 5.0 Just buy it for a party game
