Dead or Alive
This is allegedly a teaser trailer for the Dead or Alive movie.
It’s… um… yeah. If you though that the Beach Volleyball version was as tacky as the series could get, then you’re just not trying hard enough. We’re through the looking glass here, people.
Update: Fixed link, damnit.

DoA link is wrong.
The Volley ball is actually quite playable I was very surprised to discover.

Although I totally suck at XBV, it is quite a cool, if strange game. The absolute best thing about it is how much it freaks out overly-sensitive nerds!

Damnable copy-and-paste buffers. I shouldn’t post stuff at 3am.
The link is fixed now.
Simon: Yes, but it’s trying to sell itself to those same overly sensitive nerds. If the game could stand by itself then it wouldn’t need the weird “30-year-old men dressing up 15-year-old-girls” aspect.

HEY, I’M ONLY 25. AND LEI-FANG IS 18.
I wont reveal how many hours I’ve spent playing DoA:XBV (longer than I did the Wind Waker for a start) because I’d probably get arrested and put on a register somewhere.
A lot of people don’t get that it’s not a game in the traditional sense of being a game. It’s about disengaging your brain, listening to B*Witched and giving people presents. It’s actually a pretty girl-friendly game (ignoring the creepy watching them bits of course) with making friends and accessorizing and stuff.

Assuming, of course, that the girls you know fit that stereotype..

Well, obviously, but the point is it’s not pure titillation.

So, to drag this thing back into context: have any of you watched the trailer yet, and, based on it, will you be lining up on opening night?

It could be a pretty awesome dvd + booze movie. Holly + Devon + 300 Ninjas = SWEET. Yeah, it’ll probably be too crap for that. The purple hair looks dumb.

It’s by far the best former-neighbours-stars-turned-cheesy-all-girl-fighting-team-take-on-a-world-of-ninjas movie trailer I’ve ever seen. However, I am still very disappointed with the lack of Ruissian martial artists in frogman outfits.

To Ian:
OMG! Holly Valance putting on a bra! By Kung Fu!
*Dies*
(Don’t get too excited boyo)

Meh, Holly Valance just isn’t my cup of tea, even if she is putting on her knickers with ninjitsu. If it had been Steph on the other hand, well that would be a whole different saucepan of squid. Especially if she was pulling off some Russian martial arts. In a frogman outfit.
