While the awesome fighting engine is the kernel from which everything good about this game sprouts, it's the little details that make this truly a cinematic fighter (broken mirrors, particle effects, specular highlighting). Plus, there's something intangibly good about the game. Unlike Virtua Fighter, which, despite its depth, has always felt floaty and lacked the "punch" that Tekken has always provided, Dead or Alive 2 lets you feel as if you're really landing your punches and kicks. When you slam someone, you know you've slammed him real good. Perhaps the best thing about the game is how fast everything moves. Especially in tag-battle mode, no other 3D (or even 2D) fighter matches DOA2 for sheer intensity and speed. This game is for hard-core gamers only. The story mode is a bit laughable, and like the first game, Tecmo's idea of a game ending is a quick cinema that explains almost nothing about your character. While the game doesn't have the deep cache of options and unlockable rewards that Soul Calibur offers, minor quibbles aside, it makes up for it with reams and reams of gameplay. If you have enough gaming friends to maximize the tag-battle mode, you'll be hard pressed to find a better 3D fighter out there. This is, after all, just a fighting game, but it represents its genre like an ambassador at the ball. Tekken Tag Tournament looms, but until it adds truly 3D environments and some new game mechanics, Dead or Alive 2 is the hardest-hitting game in town. A must, must buy.
