Dead or Alive: Paradise's Swaying Boobs Don't Degrade Women

[Paragon Fury]

I don't give a flying crap whether the game objectifies women. I just want a girl who looks like Kasumi, complete with her proportions, naked in my bed. Too much to ask?

No. No its not.

And don't call me "shallow" or idealistic either. Inner beauty is great and all, but its hard to notice your winning personality from across the room ladies. And personality doesn't mean much when I think my cat looks better than you do.

Is it wrong that I am slightly turned on by that video, what with it's pixellated...erm, assets?

Yeah I am going to give this one a miss though.

Come on Japan, I thought we learned to not outright lie to the customers by now. That marketing tactic may have worked 20 years ago, but not today!

I have to say that when I watched the trailer I felt more than a little dirty. However, after the fourth or fifth viewing I did not have the same feelings. Perhaps I just became acclimatized to the new, higher levels of T&A.

I ask you; is that a bad thing?

Needs much more Ayane.
Seriously though, Ueda's intentions aside, this is not showing they are beautiful. First of all they are not themselves in the "Extreme" sub-series, and faking it destroys any beauty there may have been. They are strong warrior women, not some dilly-dally girls who love to skip around like they're in a fairy tale. Secondly, oogling the women that bring the beauty you love so much to this world is just creepy, and not the way to pay tribute to it. Money's all there is to this, and it makes me feel ill.

Couldn't have said it better. I agree with all of this 100%.

Finally, a physics engine I can get into... with my penis...

But seriously that was a brilliant display of Jiggle-physics.

 

[Discrodia]

I laughed. Out loud. For 10 minutes.

Seriously, I have not seen that much simulated boobies and ass since one of my friends sent me some *cough* extremely *cough* graphic videos.

And lets just say that anything they said is complete bullshit. We all know their development team only uses one hand for the keyboard, if you catch my drift =P

I love the Dead or Alive games. They just make me giggle.

Wasn't that "Age" feature in DOA2 great for a laugh?

While I do enjoy the fighting games for their fluidity and overall fun level, the fact that Team Ninja is trying to deny their exploitation of the female form to sell games is kind of like the pedophile wanking off in the back of the bus and getting caught trying to deny it.

I love the fighting games (DOA3 is my favorite of the bunch), and I had a load of fun with the first Volleyball title as well. (Believe it or not, the volleyball was actually pretty good.) I think it's just the sheer blatantness of the cheesecake that makes it so amusing to me.

DOA is probably the best and most balanced fighting series ever. (Fuck off, SF and Tekken and all you other wannabes.) The TnA just makes it better.

That being said, Team Ninja should be a little more honest about what they do with their female characters. Besides, realistic jiggle physics seems about as worthy an endeavor as anything else.

Itagaki has always been quite honest about why DOA has hot chicks: "Because I like beautiful women." Hard to argue, really.
