In my opinion DOA 3 is an awesome fighting game perhaps even one of the better fighting game out there. I really must say that this game is more enjoyable then any other fighting game. First off, I do have to say that the storyline for each character are well made. I had no problem with any storyline of any character. This game has a great storyline too it. This is very good since most fighting games don't have a great storyline to them. The gameplay is very good for a fighting game; I mean it really draws you in. The only thing that I could possibly want to be better, gameplay wise, would have to be the controls. They are good controls however; they do take time to get used too; other then that, the gameplay is smooth and need no further upgrades. The levels are well made and are also graphically good. The character designs are good; each character with their own fighting style and basically ever character was awesome. The fighting styles of each character where unique and well designed. The replay value is great. However, if we do compare this game to Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance replay value wise then we would have to say that the replay value is not so great. I mean if you're looking for replay value in a fighting game then get Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. The graphics are definitely beautiful and solid Xbox graphics, I mean I couldn't image them to be any better. I mean this is solid fighting game graphics. They would be perfect if they maybe where realistic but other then that they really are very good graphics fro an Xbox fighting game. The sound is also good; however it's not the best sound that a fighting game could have. The fighting music is repetitive; a couple more soundtracks would be a good upgrade in the game's sound. This is a great fighting game if you looking for a fighting game gameplay, graphic, and semi-good storyline wise, however; if you are looking for a fighting game gameplay, replay value, and semi-good graphics/sound then get Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. All in all I joined playing this game and I would recommend this game to anyone who owns an Xbox.
