Dead or Alive Extreme 3 features bikini malfunctions and natural tan lines

2 min read

The Dead or Alive fighting game franchise was one of the games that got me back into gaming on the original Xbox, the easy-to-use fighting mechanics and fun co-op gameplay turned it into something the wife and I played extensively.

However the guys behind the game quickly realised that a lot of their clientele were maybe more interested in seeing some pixelated semi-nude ladies than any actual fighting and the Dead or Alive Extreme franchise was born.

Obviously this franchise has caused some disconcertion in the industry for years with many people seeing it as a flagrant disregard for women and calling for the franchise to be sanctioned. However the sales have been steady and as such Tecmo Koei has continued developing the Dead or Alive Extreme and pushing the boundaries of pixel nudity further and further.

The latest version of the game will be released in Japan this coming Friday, and has possibly the oddest and most childish gimmick of them all. Wardrobe malfunctions. Oh and natural tan lines. Obviously the second feature is closely related to the first.

The way it works is that if you lose your water-based tug of war, no not that type you depraved soul, and you fall off into the pool there is a chance of your bikini or bikini bottoms slipping and showcasing some of that all-natural pixelated pale skin.

When I first saw the news I honestly thought it was a joke… but no here we have some screenshot examples.

But obviously nothing is quite like the real pixelated thing. Just be careful on the sound as the Japanese weird lady screams sound remarkably like something very NSFW.

But I’m sorry to say for any of you in the Western World you aren’t going to be able to pick up a copy of this at your local store as Tecmo aren’t releasing it outside of Asia, which in itself has caused a huge internet storm in a tea cup.

Play Asia started the storm with the following tweet.

Basically, they’re saying that the current Social Justice Warrior trend in the Western world is the reason Tecmo aren’t releasing it here, but in reality it is far more likely to be related to the pitiful sales of previous DOAX titles in Europe and America. The last one reportedly sold just 246 thousand copies world wide. 

Japan has a different view of the way women can be portrayed and their, to us, unusual views are nudity and sexuality don’t sit well with our more conservative views. I personally dislike the fact that people feel they have the moral right to condemn the people behind these types of games and the people who play them. Morals are simply societal rules and with society varying so much across the planet any attempt to play the moral police is hypocritical at best and malicious at worst.

Oh and most importantly, the bikini malfunctions can only be seen in the PS4 version, sorry Vita people.

      Give it a few months and you’ll start seeing the really high quality body mods for Fallout 4, probably no jiggle unless they work some magic with a script extender, but you can’t have everything I guess.

          Listen, they’re not Tekken or Virtua Fighter. but in all seriousness, the DOA games have a cool fighting system. It’s over the top and if you give it enough love… quite rewarding.

      Clever marketing. Place the cookie jar on top of the fridge and everybody wants it.

      Also a big F U to the Feminazis. Stupid sensitive Americans. They have beheadings on shows like Supernatural before the watershed TV. But show some boobie? Better call FOX news.

        Damn straight. I wonder if these crybabies actually realise this.

        What was the reason why Hatred sold soo many copies regardless of it being a really mediocre game? Because people wanted it gone. Plain and simple.

        I now support DOAX fully. Amazing how a company decides not to stock a product IN THE FREEMARKET.

        Congrats Feminazi’s. Congrats LG SJW staff

          Modern internet users and their soap box do not even know what they are fighting for. They just want a green light. Any green light to piggy back on. Wether its somebody using the N Word. They will take it out of context and create a huge hate surge. Its a new trend.

            They need a reason to look “above the rest”.
            Be it N word, be it sensationalism.

            Anything to make them look on the “right side of history” totally shitting on everyone on their quest for the “greater good”

            and it works. Huge franchises would rather cut their loses by firing the person for an innocent tweet that was dissected by clueless idiots than receive hate from the people. Like that owner of that basketball team or DA MP.

            Corporations are scared of public opinion.

            PC culture is what’s wrong with society today. While the intention may have been good (protecting sensitive ears), the implementation has been a royal fuck-up of authoritarian proportions.

            Definitely, and the idiots calling for comments to be removed from opinion pieces/articles etc. are the absolute worst wannabe-Stalins around.

            Freedom of speech doesn’t just mean the freedom to have people lick you literary balls (yes I mean literary) and suck up your chicken scratch (without questioning or critiquing it), it also means that you allow the worst in the worst to spew forth their hate. It’s better to expose those views then the authors hiding in a “safe space” or creating an “echo-chambers on twitter”.

            Seriously, fuck the censors! Now I need a beer.

    man imagine how these fems would react if they saw game of thrones. they think girls in bikines are bad the 200+ brothel sex scenes and girls that just walk around toples.
    and best part tht is on tv and any kid can see it without proving thier age
    while a game like that would never be even alowed to be sold in stores as it would have an ao rating.
    even games where girls are fully clothed like doa are harder to get then game of throens is.

    how are the fems any better then jack tompson now?

    As long as the content of a game is clearly described and appropriate age restrictions are assigned, I see no problem with sexuality in games. Hell even sex games have a place.
