    Dead or Alive 5 Last Round is not trying to prove anything and offers generously fun to the fullest. It has beautiful girls, lots of action, quick battles... what else can you ask for?

    Owners of the PC version are faced with a difficult choice — either wait for the promised online multiplayer and enjoy the fact that it is a decent port of an excellent fighting game, or berate Team Ninja that Last Round lacks some odd features.

    Are people just reading the somewhat negative notes about this game and making bad reviews over it?

    First off - I own the ps4 copy as well.    Are people just reading the somewhat negative notes about this game and making bad reviews over it?

    First off - I own the ps4 copy as well. I bought this version as DOA is my favorite fighting game of all time and I want to play it when I travel on my laptop. Here's a little detail about the difference between the two versions:

    Graphics:
    Don;t be so quick to dismiss the PC version. The graphics are basically equal on both versions (But I get a better framerate on my laptop). All this noise about the soft engine and some items being equivalent to the ps3 version is totally crazy. MAYBE if I bring my laptop downstairs and pause both versions side by side I'd see a difference....no guarantees. Giving this game a bad review due to the lack of the soft engine is like hating a hamburger because the bun has 2% less sesame seeds.

    ***Quick side note - I bought the story mode on PSN because I thought you needed it to get trophies....but there aren't any on PSN either. Very strange as I thought every playstation game was required to have them.

    Online:
    No debate here....PS4 has full online with the cool share button features as well. No steam online for 3 months which would make this a terrible purchase for you if you only play online. I mainly play local competitive or arcade mode so I'm not missing out.

    Random thoughts:
    The loading time in the PS4 is surprisingly good, but not nearly as nice as having the game installed on your SSD. Game is extremely fast on steam!

    I have the wireless 360 controller for windows and it works flawlessly. No strange button maps here.

    I'm using a laptop with a nvidia 770M (Which is low/mid range compared to desktop cards). The game runs flawlessly @1080p and I never see any slowdown.

    People still care about steam achievements??? They're so useless O.o

    Anyways... I do agree about the online functionality. Hopefully that gets fixed sooner than later. But all these other complaints seem really unnecessary. Go out and try the PS4 version if you really want to see the difference in graphics. The game play is identical, with the exception of the better loading times which makes a big difference for me.    … Full Review »

    I give this game a "1" for treating PC community as trash.

    The fighting itself is good and the characters are, but the port and Team    I give this game a "1" for treating PC community as trash.

    The fighting itself is good and the characters are, but the port and Team Ninja`s attitude are outright horrible.

    - The game is a cheap PS3 port without any regard to PS4 version. In 2015, yeah.
    - No online in a fighting game in 2015, only promises to add it 3 months later.
    - Less stages than in console version.
    - Can`t remap control buttons and gamepad buttons are a bit messed up.
    - NO SOFT ENGINE
    - Screen resolution options lacking. I have a 1920x1200 display, but i can select either 1920x1080 or 1680x1050, being forced to play in a window?

    - Director telling the modders community to "play it good and moral' or else "we won`t be making anything for PC".

    Seriously, go threaten someone else for our money, ok?    … Full Review »

    Usual broken garbage port. No online at launch when the quality of this port ALREADY doesnt justify the game coming out 3 months later.
    -No    Usual broken garbage port. No online at launch when the quality of this port ALREADY doesnt justify the game coming out 3 months later.
    -No controller support (Technically has it but the buttons are completely jacked up because its an arcade port, Oh and you cant rebind them)
    -No achievements
    -No online
    -Saves are tied to your CURRENT steam name. (If you change your name in steam it cant detect your save file....WTF?)
    -Missing stages
    -Upscaled from last gen so it lacks soft engine and looks pretty poor quality overall
    -Bad optimization? (Slow downs during win poses in story mode, SLI/XFIRE not optimized, Crash's in story mode occasionally) *EDIT* I havent personally had any problems but i hear the game is more CPU intensive than GPU somehow?
    -DLC can go f**k itself ( Seriously? 55$ and 65$ for the DLC which is MORE expensive than the console's and WTF is the point without F**KING ONLINE FOR 3 MONTHS?!?!)

    Dont buy this game, if they end up not porting any future DoA's to the PC we are WAY better off without them anyway if this is the treatment they are going give us.    … Full Review »
