    Fun, deceptively deep, but the 'globe' physics fail to distract from a lack of variation.

    At best forgettable; at worst downright creepy. [Issue#192, p.89]

    And, well, that’s about it. You jump between islands (well, still shots of islands), you give and receive arbitrary gifts from Zack and the other girls which supposedly determine who will and won’t be your friend (these girls really are quite shallow y’know) and you play a bunch of dire mini-games. If that sounds fun – Paradise is the place for you, or Zack Island, or, whatever it’s called.

    While Dead or Alive: Paradise may appear exciting to a sex-starved 16-year-old, the game is insulting to all other audiences; a huge backwards step in an industry desperately trying to mature. Remember this, kids: ultimately you're getting yourself worked up over polygon meshes, skin coloured textures and clever algorithms. Unless you're really struggling for ways to entertain your libido, the game should be categorically avoided.

    Avoid at all costs. Playability is awful and even the girls aren't that sexy: they are destroyed by low polygon count models and horrible textures.

    Everything about the game reeks of both not understanding women at all, and then not understanding how to make a game that is allowed to be naïve as long as it's full of fan service that we can get off to.

I really like these female characters to this day.… Expand

    if you want to see hot, wet bouncy girls playing sports with each other then this game is for you. This game got me past my development periodif you want to see hot, wet bouncy girls playing sports with each other then this game is for you. This game got me past my development period but thats not important. However, if you don't like having too much half naked girls fooling around and doing non combat things then perhaps this isnt for you.

    That aside, the mini games in this are actually pretty fun to play and you would be surprised to see what this game has in store.    … Expand

    Well probably soon Tecmo could possibly transfer the XBOX DOA Xtreme franchise 1 and 2 transported to the PS3 as well. Well I agree with theWell probably soon Tecmo could possibly transfer the XBOX DOA Xtreme franchise 1 and 2 transported to the PS3 as well. Well I agree with the critics a little bit, sometime it wasn't meant to feel the same way as what the fans want in a Dead or Alive game. I don't have a Playstation Vita yet, but hopefully I'll play Paradise. I still love the DOA girls, all they wanna do is have some fun.… Expand

    a game that is based on your love for the DOA girls mixed with how much you like volleyball . i use to play in tourneys so i love me mya game that is based on your love for the DOA girls mixed with how much you like volleyball . i use to play in tourneys so i love me my volleyball . i dont care much for the dress up part with the girls but the volley ball is pretty solid although still has the same camera issue's it would be nice if the camera was adjustable to differnt views and they had some tourney style play . this is basically a direct port of DOAX2 for the 360 with things taken out instead of added minus they did add one new girl . there are no new swim suites from what ive seen so if your into collecting all that and where hoping for new stuff you can forget it unlessed i missed them. the graphics for the PSP are actaully pretty good minus the girls do have alittle jaggy look . its only 29.99 new but since the reviews wernt good i waited to get it cheaper and have already gotten a copy of it on ebay new for $15 . which after playing it is about the right price. they removed the water slide and jet ski racing and online play. which didnt care much for the water slide but the jet ski's were kinda fun and i guess no one played the first one online any way because the servers sucked so bad. so if you are a fan of DOAX 1 amd 2 you will probubly enjoy this as long as you are not expecting any thing new.… Expand
