Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball
Overall: DOAX is a pretty game, and yes, it has loads of ladies in all sorts of bikinis. But, unfortunately, that's just not enough to drive a game all by itself. Luckily DOAX has some great addictive gameplay to back up the gobs of beautiful visuals. I found it to be a very fun game that lived up to the hype.
Gameplay: The gameplay was very slick. Initially I thought the two button systemn would get old, but I found that the gameplay is a lot deeper than I originally thought. It's deceiving to say it's only two buttons, because it utilizes the analog feature of these buttons. Pressing hard or soft will make differences in what you and your partner will do with the ball. Furthermore, the right thumb stick can be used to create different formations. It was pretty easy to learn, and a lot of fun to master.
Graphics: I have a HDTV widescreen TV, and play the game in 480p. It is the best looking game I have seen on the Xbox.
Audio: The sounds are good. The music that comes with the game (lots of Bewitched and Christina Aguilara (sp?)-ish music) is only so-so, but does fit in with the game. Luckily you can crank your own tunes with the custom soundtrack feature.
Suggestions: For the next one add four player mode and make it compatable with Xbox Live.
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
