That's the cool thing about Dead or Alive. When you get bumped into something like a hippo or nuclear reactor, etc., something blows up. That's cool.

I think this is an absolutely awesome idea! But i think it'd be more awesome if she had some wicked special moves like she whips out a covenant energy sword and does a lunge attack, or busts out dual smgs then unloads on whoever, or calls in a frigin air strike! LOL! but seriouly that'd be so cool to integrate some of the halo weapons if possible.
BUNGIE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!

for starters, anyone who buys this game for the spartan is an absolute moron. if you dont like fighting games and plan on buying this (wasting your money) for a spartan in a fighting game is even dumber. all it is is a ninja dressed like a spartan. adding a spartan will not make this fighting game any different than the 1st, 2nd or 3rd game as far as a fighting game is concerned except for it having a spartan. i dont get it. it makes no sense. its not even like its MC. its a spartan.. a made up spartan...has NO connection to any thing Halo related not only in the past but in the future as well. am i missing the point here? i still dont get what the big deal is. it seems like bungie just keeps DEVOLVING Halo. they go from Halo CE: to Halo 2 which the 2 games have absolutely nothing in common... not even an engine! and now from Halo 2 ( which sucked ass, and is so easily hacked because of the networking which is synthesized or predicted for those who dont know, that means fake not to mention a weaker MC who throws like my six year old sister and hits or melles like my 3 year old brother you replace a M6D pistol with some -blam!-ass 3 shot BR thats supposed to be mid range but everyone knows that fire that thing at more than 20 feet and your just gonna run outa ammo so some stupid Alien Elite can kill you with a plasma pistol....WTF BUNGIE!) and now to a "spartan"....... in a ninja game!? I DONT GET IT!!! WTF!!!!!?????

Now i can picture Halo 3 and its gonna suck ass as well. new different playable characters each with special skills and tactics and so on and so on.... you may as well call Halo 3 "unreal championship 5 with spartans". no offense but if we wanted to play as different characters each with their own strengths and weaknesses than we would be playing Unreal championship and not halo. thats what was so great about the original halo in multiplayer. it was a level playing ground and everyone was exposed to the same exact conditions, weapons, tactics ETC. you cant even say this about Halo 2 cause the elites and spartans do have different builds making them different to shoot at. any more characters added will only be copying what has already been done. Remember, Halo didnt need an elite or an arbiter like Halo 2. The MC is all you needed and all you ever will need. Please Bungie, scrap those ideas and go back to what made Halo-Halo! if not, youve done nothing but turned halo into a game "LIKE" Unreal championship or other games that have been done before. we dont wanna be a sniper or a point man or a medic or have to hide behind my rocket guy, cause im a specialist in 1 weapon or type of tactic. i wanna be able to drop my assault rifle and snag the sniper and get 6 quick headshots then drop the sniper grap the rocket and blow everyone to HELL run outa ammo and then ,ah yes.... have my never to be dropped "GO TO" Handy and most deadly when fired acurately sidearm known as "THE M6D PISTOL"! so basically what im saying is DOA4 and a spartan is dumb and its a lame marketing strategy by both Bungie and team Ninja to sell a few extra copies of a dying and fading out fighting gameand that halo 2 sucks, well it doesnt suck it just doesnt deserve the Halo name. the 2 games are just way too different in gameplay to both bear the Halo name. it should have been called spartans and elites unite or something..... anything but Halo.

I think its a good idea to make a Halo character fight in the DOA games, but I still don't agree with the idea to go with a Spartan. It looks out of place. A better bet would be an Elite and Cortana. They fit the mold of a lithe fighter.

I also think that if you were going to make a female fighter fight in the games, you should at least show she's a female somehow rather than just another Master Chief clone. I know they all look alike in their suits, but why don't you give her an alternate costume where she takes off her helmet or something?

This is just a shameless marketing scheme designed to make the Halo fanboys go out and buy this game.

yea, sorry... i dont know what happened there? drugs alcohol....alil of both. i guess it just got away on me. but think about it... Halo -Halo2-"a spartan in DOA4" not even MC-Halo3= sux! in my defense, i am entitled to an opinion like everyone else. and im sure Bungie appreciates the feedback weather it be positive or negative and thats why bungie is so great cause they listen. unfortunately for my friends and i, they listen to the wrong fans...heheh.

Halo

You guys are totally wrong about Halo and these marketing schemes.I trust Bungie to deliver great games and the same goes for Team Ninja.I cant wait to control a Spartan in a real fighting game instead of an fps,I cant wait to see how powerful she is going to be.And above all Halo 2 ROCKED!!!!

You turned an announcement like this into a (long) "Halo 1 pistol rant"?

My god kid, get over yourself. You bought a copy of Halo, you don't actually "own" Halo.

If you don't like the news, just turn the freaking channel or something.
He is right. You are complaining about the pistol. Good God, that would be the day when DOA4 comes out, oh too late! Please, complaining about something as simple as that. It is just a game. Have you ever thought of that?

.... have my never to be dropped "GO TO" Handy and most deadly when fired acurately sidearm known as "THE M6D PISTOL"! so basically what im saying is DOA4 and a spartan is dumb and its a lame marketing strategy by both Bungie and team Ninja to sell a few extra copies of a dying and fading out fighting gameand that halo 2 sucks...

Please, if you must complain, in any sort of way, post elsewhere, not in the main forum of the day, where everyone wants to rejoice about the new things happening. Not some party pooper that has to complain about an underpowered pistol. There are other weapons other than the pistol that can be payed attention to.

Halo

Besides the fighting,who here is going to buy DOA4?I know i am.

  • 12.14.2005 6:22 PM PDT

seriously, i think the idea to post is on the topic and not on others posts, this is not your forum it is bungies forum and if i want Bungie to know what we think then i will post for Bungie to see..(NOT FOR YOU) i dont care about what the others think that post on these forums. so dont waste your time flaming my posts, leave that to bungie. never have i come in here and posted a flame on 1 particular post that i read unlike you who has absolutely nothing to say unless its directed at an individual that YOU dont like. those are the facts and yes, you are entitled to your opinion on the subject, but i dont see 1?

k well i would have to agree with some of "de_snake"'s comments. (not the ones were he insults halo and halo2 cuz they will always be the best). but like i find that if u dont really play fighting games why would u ever buy this one only cuz they put a spartan. it annoyes me to c ervyone now wanting to buy it just to do a freakin plasma kick. also there will be less people online on halo 2 which suks. why does bungie make people leave there game? also elites would be so much better they look like real close range fighters that could use swords...in other words in think DOA just was starting to die completly and now with this weak tactic of selling they will attract a lot of "easy to influence" kids.
halo 2 rocks evryone stick with that one dont let urselves be attracted to another game simply becuze they add a character that is by the way 1000000 more fun to use in halo.
AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE KIDZZZ!!!!

After the seven day suspension ends, you can try playing properly. Do it again and there will be more permanent penalties. Don't like it? Call a "waaaaah-mbulance."

Sounds like a game for my post holiday shopping.
Did anybody else get the Close Quarters Battle being ripped straight from Metal Gear Solid 3's Close Quarters Combat system?
