Definitely liking what I see, from the combat to presentation, this is going to be good!!!

[Mr Bakaboy]

Below the video it says the developer is Namco Bandai. Did I sleep through something?

[Ashspiralingblood]

IDK, but Tecmo Koei is developing a One Piece (DW style game) for Namco

Does anyone really care about DOA as a serious fighter?

DOA4 @ EVO 2006. Not that I take it seriously myself (I much prefer VF), but DOA3.2 had a somewhat competitive scene in Europe, IIRC. It's some peoples' cup of tea, and for some it isn't. This is true for any fighting game.

Awesome! Looking forward to this.

Tom Brady was big in the DOA scene back when people actually went to DOACentral for DOA3 stuff.

[PureYeti]

Perfect Legend is also into the DOA

I thought 2011 was a good year for fight games, but 2012 look like is going to be better... all we need know is Darkstalkers, Guilty Gears and killing instinct to complete the fight games comeback list.

[Delta]

A new Guilty Gear got confirmed, but the creator of the series, Daisuke Ishiwatari, doesn't know when it's gonna happen.
Ono said he wanted to do something about DarkStalkers if i remember correctly, so there's a chance for the series to return.

This is what i always ask myself. I can't take seriously a game whose main fame is big bouncing tits and excesive fanservice. That and its creator (Itagaki) is a complete asshole.

But hey, that's just like my opinion , any fan of DOA here don't get mad at me.

[Running Wild]

I'm curious how DOA will progress without Itagaki at the helm. It would be nice to have another 3D fighter that offers a comparable amount of depth as Tekken and Virtua Fighter.

DOA has quite a few awesome characters I always liked, mainly Lei-Fang, Baymen, and Jann Lee. That drunken fist user from one of the recent titles looks kinda cool too, he reminds me of the dude from Double Dragon on Neo-Geo that also used drunken fist.

I think some more fighting style diversity would be good... my top picks of course being boxing, taekwondo, and capoeira.
