About this product
Product Information
Dead or Alive was an instant hit on the PlayStation but the game never made it to the U.S. for the Saturn. This time around Sega fans get to experience Dead or Alive 2 first as the game makes its first U.S. appearance on the Dreamcast. Thanks to the game being originally developed for the Dreamcast-friendly Naomi arcade board, Tecmo had no problem keeping the game "arcade perfect." Dead or Alive 2 runs at 60 frames per second during every fighting sequence. However, the frame rate does drop to 30fps during cinematic sequences that take place between battles in Story mode. This is a result of the game using two different game engines, one for the game itself and one for the cinematic sequences.<br><br>Dead or Alive 2 features semi-realistic fighting much in the same way as Virtua Fighter 3tb. You won't find weapons or fireballs here, just hand-to-hand combat. Modes of play include Story, Time Attack, Survival, Team Battle, Sparring, Versus, and Tag Battle. For fans of the fighting genre most of the modes should be self-explanatory. Story mode is where one player takes one of the selectable characters through battles against six of the characters until they reach the final boss and win the game. Time Attack allows users to see how fast they can complete each fight. Survival pits fighters against one character after another to see how many in a row they can defeat without losing. Power-ups can be obtained in Survival mode when an enemy is knocked out or when a follow-up is launched on a downed opponent. Team Battle has gameplayers choose a team of fighters to fight another group of fighters with. The objective is to defeat each enemy fighter before each member of your team is defeated. Sparring is a practice mode where gamers can learn the moves of each character. Versus is a standard one-on-one fight against the computer or a friend.<br><br>Tag Battle is a mode that is not found in the original arcade version of Dead or Alive 2. This mode can be played in a variety of ways. One is for a single-player to control two characters and go against two computer-controlled or human-controlled characters. Another is for two players to each control one character on the same team and to go against two computer-controlled opponents. A third option is for two players to each control one pair of fighters. The fourth is for two players to be on one team and for a third player to control the second team. Finally, the fifth way to play is for four players to pair off in teams of two with each player controlling one character. When tagging in and out players will be able to perform combinations together for added damage to their opponent.<br><br>At the start of the game there are a total of 12 characters featured and a final boss that will not be unveiled until you reach the end of the game in Story mode. There is Ryu Hayabusa, a martial artist who first appeared in the Tecmo classic Ninja Gaiden; Helena, a french opera singer; and Bass, a fighter who looks a lot like wrestler Hulk Hogan. Some of the others include: Leon, Kasumi, Ayane, Jann-Lee, Zack, Ein, Tina, Lei-Fang, and Gen-Fu. <br><br>The fighters will do battle in a total of nine different arenas: The City, The Cathedral, The Elevator, The Opera House, The Wind Towers, The Arctic Plains, The Japanese Garden, The Generator Room, and another version of The City. Fighting locations are multi-tiered allowing players to throw each other off of various heights, as well as through some objects such as windows. Locations also feature danger zones, something that appeared in the original Dead or Alive. Danger zones are areas of a location that cause massive damage to a fighter when they are knocked down on top of them.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (1,617)
- 6***s (102)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseFast shipping and game arrived in working condition as described, Just a thing I didn't like is that the seller shipped the loose cart inside a mini zip lock plastic bag with no extra padding whatsoever giving very poor protection, for a 60 dollar not so common game. I am giving positive feedback because the game arrived fine, but maybe is something the seller has to improve upon.Stella Glow (Nintendo 3DS) Tested & Works - Authentic Ships Fast Cartridge Only (#177227104678)
- y***k (65)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis is a great game and I used to have a great copy of it until it was stolen. I originally bought this one thinking it was mint or close to it but it turned out it was a little less than expectations. I paid a premium for that and after a little exchange with the seller they made it right with me and I feel for the seller. They didn't mean not to meet my expectations. The shipping was very fast and the packaging was good. Thanks again! Would recommend this seller any day!
- 5***e (306)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller! Item arrived exactly in the condition pictured and as it was described. It was also packaged so that it wouldn't be damaged in transit. The pricing was also super reasonable making it a great value. Highly recommended! Thank you so much!Star Wars Battlefront II: Elite Trooper Deluxe Edition (PlayStation 4, PS4) MINT (#177171456314)
