This game is boring .the volleyball is just way too weak to keep your attention for more than a few hours.
the girls are beautiful but they all speak japanease(which really gets annoying). its more of a game of dress up the ultra hot dolly than a volleyball game.the most nudity in the game is the thong bikinis that you can make them wear.
The casino is also quite boring youve got poker,blackjack and a host of similar slot machines.
The consensus between me and everyone i have let use or play this game is that the chicks are hot but how long can you look at a pixelated hottie before you realize the game has no substance.

play it for a day or so, then through it into the trash

This game got so much hype. People wrote rave reviews for it without much knowledge about it, let alone playing it. Plane and simple the game is pretty bad. After 15 minutes of watching CARTOON chicks bounce around in bikinis you begin to think of how pathetic your life has become. The volleyball part is cool for about another 15 minutes, so after that you can concentrate on actually beating the game. Which is amazingly short. Overall this game has very little replay value, very little fun, but high on the spank-o-meter... if that is what your life has come to, then for sure, BUY this game.

The Best Game EVER!!!!

First, you get to see the girls from DOA in bakinis: ^_^ and then you get to play volleyball. Its good to both genders...
1) Guy's get some really cool suits!
2) Girl's like it because you get lots of money and very cool volleyball!
There is an equal share af cleat suits...and the other kind! HEALEILUIGHA!!!
So you can play with your friends, play with your girl friend, or play with yourself...*_*

beautiful girls.

if you are Bill Gates kind of person then don't even touch this game.on the other hand, if you are Heu Hefner kind of GUY then go get it RIGHT NOW!!and for all the ladies, if you are kind of female who liked to change Barbie's cloths then you could have fun too.

Sorry, but Ted from Carlisle, MA is WRONG. Anyone who's played this knows that it's a great sports game, and then ON TOP OF THAT it's nice to look at. TECMO KNOWS SPORTS, and vollyball is no exception.

This game is not another BMX:XXX game, it really does rock!

Hmmmm, I dont really know about this game

I am pretty concerned that Tecmo suddenly changed from fighting games to volleyball games. I know the only reason for this game is just for the girls in the bathing suits. I like the idea of them making Ninja Gaiden, that looks cool, but I don't really trust this game to be that much fun, probably might last you 2 weeks or so, but after that you would most likely leave it on the shelf. If you like seeing girls in bathing suits then buy this game.

The Harlots that didn't make the cut in "Grand Theft Audo"

Okay, I see nothing wrong with nudity or scantly claded girls in games. Ha, I play Soul Calibur (both of them) and I perfectly notice that a lot of girls are curvey and have big buns, but at least the story is the main focus, not the butt or boob cleavge.

Now I've play DOA series. Not worst, but sort of overrated IMO, due to some girls in the game that look like er....... street harlots and the camera is ALWAY at their clevage. This game adds insult to injury. the game is about the main prostutites, um....I mean lead girls being involved in volleyball competition, led by no other than Dennis Rodman.

Beautiful... but the gameplay!

Without a doubt, this is a very beautiful game. Great graphics.

However, what I really expected from this game was not just spectacular (and sexy) graphics, but a killer game engine that would overshadow other Beach Volleyball games (on any system), just like Dead or Alive 3 had excellent gameplay for a fighting game (and spectacular graphics). Unfortunately, this is not the case. The gameplay comes down to pretty much push one of two buttons. Even the camera isn't up to the task. More than once did I have to dive for the ball off screen...

If you are a fan of the characters: Get the game. If you just want to look at half-naked girls: Buy a magazine or look at the screen shots here. If you want to play good volleyball: Look somewhere else...

Good Game...

This is a pretty good game, but I must first point out that it isn't for kids. There are bouncing breats and girls in bikinis. That is why it isn't for under 14 at least. The overall mechanics of this game is simple. You don't really get to play much volleyball, but you do get a lot of options. From winning games and other things, you get cash. With that cash, you can buy other swim suits, sun tan lotion, and other accesories. It really doesn't help when you tell a girl to put on the lotion, you just see the bottle empty. Overall, this game is just plain fun to play.

DOesn't live up to the hype...

As advertised, the near point of this game is to showcase partially naked from various camera angles, wearing various bathing suits and doing things typically seen in a Baywatch episode. Now there's nothing wrong with this, except that this game severly falls short in this area. The revealing nature of this game might possibly fulfill the fantasies of a ten year old boy, but thats about it. (If you want provocative material, there are definitely better places to get it.)

This leaves the only other aspect of the game: volleyball (duh). This aspect of the game, while it might be slightly entertaining for a few hours or so, also falls short. The physics are excellent, the controls superb, and the learning curve easy, but playing volleyball on a screen grows old after a few hours. It simply lacks the replay value found in other games of similar nature (Ex: Super Dadge Ball Advance - Gameboy Advance). After a while, it just isn't fun to play anymore.

It seems the main problem with Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball is that Tecmo attempted to include too many "crowds" in selling this product, but left each one wanting more. The provocative aspect left people wanting more skin. The gaming aspect left players bored. Tecmo even tried to appeal to its female gamers by allowing the gamer to customize the various Dead or Alive girls' accesories. Bottom line: the game has a lot of things to, but limit you in each aspect of the game.

(Actually 2.5 stars)
