    For fighting enthusiasts, DOA2 Hardcore is the first must have game for the PlayStation 2. End of story.

    One of the best looking fighters so far for the PS2, it eclipses "Street Fighter EX3" and "Tekken Tag Tournament" for beauty.

    The original Dreamcast game blew us away, and there are so many improvements to this version it'd be impossible to list them all.

    I have played all of the DOA games and it's my opinion that DOA2H is the best. I think it's the best graphiced one the controls are alot easier than DOA3 for X Box.… Expand

    Just good graphics but lacks a lot of game play. Stories are really short and you don´t get to understand them very well. Realism is not in the game and also moves are very limited. I will rate this game as a JUST RENT.… Expand
