Dead or Alive Ultimate(ly) will sell well
Team Ninja's classic hit, Dead or Alive, was a great looking and fun fighter that made a lot of us fork over 300 bucks for an Xbox — during a nasty recession. The look and feel of the game has held up very well. Most developers would use that fact to release some slight upgrade, and put a 4 at the end of the title. But Dead or Alive Ultimate, another Xbox exclusive, is going to try to do something different. The developers would like to recreate the feeling of an arcade. To do this , they'll offer an online lobby where 8 people can gather to play against each other and taunt, as they see fit. It's a good idea which, if done well, could be a killer app for fighter fans who have been waiting for good online rumbling.
