Have anyone here played this game. I bought it a few days ago for $17.99 in EB games. I think its the best fighting game for Dreamcast. My favorite character is Kasumi . Now I was looking for secrets in the game but I didn't find many. Are there secret costumes,options or characters in the game? I already know the bounce trick, the stupid pause trick, and the arcade intro.
Doesnt that kinda eliminated the point of playing the game?
yep. though with those kind of games sumtimes i download the save to make sure i have unlocked everything in the end.
yet i have yet to buy this game. I really want to though. but doesnt the JP hardcore eddion have more stuff to unlock or something? would it be more worth it to get this one?
"I'm convinced RenegadeC is in fact not a human, but rather an experimental IRC/QuakeC bot who has the ability to randomly formulate mods and code them, programmed to have a distinct Canadian personality as well."
Dead Or Alive 2 Limited Edition (Japan only release) has a lot more things to unlock than the American version. Not only does the Limited Edition have tons of extra costumes, but two secret characters as well, along with a CG gallery.
haha. i remember reading about that in the ODM and tried it. all u had to do was get a high score or sumthin. though i heard it was still edited here (like illbleed) and its much *more* in JP.

In LE, I believe he's referring to the "Naked Kasumi" in multiplayer mode, not the "Kasumi in the jello blob" which I got day 1.
NK just runs away, and cannot really be controlled, making her worthless.

Not really, its only extra costumes, you can still play the game + i think on the PAL version the only way you can get whatshermane's (i can't remember Doh! ) pink costume is by download, I maybe wrong tho.
The US version doesn't have the gallery for Dreamcast. But when you put the game in the PC you can see pictures of the girls . The 2 secret charecters you mentioned are Tengu and Bayman. They are not in the US version.
So is there nothing to be unlocked in the US version?
if you ever see JPN DOA2 - especially 1st print release - snap it up.
for strange reason JPN DOA2 LE is far more common compared to JPN DOA2...
I had to hunt it for a long time before I found one for good price...
being a bit of Ktsumi fan I've collected these so far...

SS DOA LE
PS DOA
DC DOA2 PAL

and Xbox DOAXBV w/ n*de patch... he he o_O
Japanese games always work on american tvs. its the console lock outs that are the reason they dont load on US systems without mod chips or boot disk.
And as far as I know DOA HC was release in all 3 regions pal being the hardest to find.
Pal gaming stinks unless you got 60htz. 50 just feels so laggy. A version of the LOTR rpg my friend has is pal and its like watching a game play with frame skip on.
