Ridiculous.

As soon as I saw this, I began laughing.

I have played and own Dead or Alive 3 (x-box), which, in my opinion is a good game. It's somewhat short, but the graphics (environments, specifically) are great. Now, I'm a woman, thus the "cute girls" in this game don't really do anything for me. DOA 3 is good, but this is completely ridiculous.

The calendar that goes along with the game is also utterly ridiculous. But funny.

You guys need to get a girlfriend.

game for losers

ok, the only reason you guys are raving about this game is because of the DOA girls... that's pretty sad. If this was a regular voleyball game with a bunch of dudes, u guys wont pay any attention 2 this game.
whoever preordered this game really REALLY needs to get laid!!

Not really worth renting, much less buying

This game is only for hormone-raging 13 year old kids who can't get their hands on actuall pornography so its aimed towards their hormones. The game is actually not a good game. If one of your "not-as-smart" friends has the game you might want to try it, but its not worth the money nor time to rent or buy. The ONLY other reason to buy this game is IF you are a DIE HARD Dead or Alive "collectors" fan.

Nice eye candy, but no substance

Ok, the graphics are really great, the girls are very nice looking, but the gameplay is horrible.

The whole idea of only using 2 buttons on your controller to play the entire game is just plain weak. There is no game play here...

So, I took mine back.

This is sad

If your buying this game for the actual volleyball, DONT.. It's real bad. I have been playing beach volleyball for 10 year (Miami Beach). It dose not come close at all to the real thing. It only has the concept of the game. I can put it this simple; it's so bad that it does not have and out of bound line. There is no tourney just pick up games.. It's that simple. Way to easy, 2 buttons control the whole game all u can do is spike and dink o and handset. No cuts shot or deep shots. The girls only talk in Chinese with translation line in the bottom. I could not find a way to make them speak English. Well enough trashing. Lets look at one and I mean one good thing, the graphics are awesome. So if want to get a cheap thrill of a cartoon then get it. But its way cheaper to surf the Internet and get better pictures for free.

Not that good

Dead or Alive Volleyball, is a pretty weak game. It does has beautiful graphics; the women wearing bikinis and sun bathing or playing volleyball. ... The backdrops are beautiful as well, with nice beaches and island spots. I also had a bit of fun with the casino mini games included. When you gamble and win at the casino games, you earn money to buy gifts for your girl/characters- buy them a new swimsuit, candy, flowers. It tries to simulate interaction with a virtual girl, but it is very limited. The volleyball game (which is the whole purpose of the game) lacks responsive controls, and has very bad camera angles. The bad camera angles ruin the whole game because when you are playing volleyball, either your character or ball will leave the play screen and then you end up losing points! Terrible. The music and sound effects are generic but they can be turned down.

Pros:
+beautiful women
+beautiful back drops
+casino games

Cons:
-junk controls
-camera angles sucks
-you cannot adjust camera angles
-generic music
-weak sound effects
-not very exciting

Overall this game is below average, it tried to implement lots of good ideas, and the casino games was a nice bonus, but the negative points affect it badly.

Total Disappointment - Where Is The Killer V-Ball Gameplay??

Sure, the graphics and CGI are great, but what was TECMO thinking when they created this "Mature", volleyball game? All this hype on a spectacular volleyball game only to be teased by a bunch of bouncing jigglies??? At least have a cheat code for Super Spike Volleyball somewhere on the CD!!! Oh well, I guess I will wait for the real volleyball game coming out soon, OUTLAW Volleyball!... I won't buy it until I read the critical reviews, the truth. And not the hyped up [words]printed in those gaming magazines. If you enjoy funabagos, this game is for you. If you are looking for a truly fun and challenging beach volleyball game, pick up a Super Nintendo system and Super Spike Volleyball or Kings of The Beach instead. They are about the same price you would pay for this game. Good luck!

don't buy

This game was supposed to have nudity in it but it doesn't.It said so on the back of the box under the rating section ...

The casino is very limited. Casino software on the market for PCs are far better.

The characters speak in Japanese. It should not have been that difficult to have the characters speak english.

The volleyball itself gets boring fast. My copy of this game will end up in a Goodwill bin. I will not buy another Tecmo product ...

Uh...What's the point?

Don't buy this unless you just want to collect all of the games with the best graphics. Who cares about these girls? The volleyball games are dumb and the hop, skip, and a jump only slightly more amusing. I thought I didn't have a life when I bought this, and now I KNOW I don't have one if I kept playing it. Buy a real sports game (pick one...ANY one) and the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated, go back to playng Halo, and you'll be a lot better off.
