Tekken 5, 6 did it, MK did it, MKvsDC did it etc.
Why not?
Tekken 5 and 6 had cutscenes?
EDIT: I just watched some, they're actually pretty solid. *shrug*

Oh it's another woman with big tits. Creative bunch down at Team Ninja.
her fighting style is MMA?
what does that even mean?
She is kind of meh to me. No one leaked Pai yet? :S
They showed like 14 seconds of a guy mashing buttons. I don't think you can judge a character off that :lol
Im gonna have to add this to the OP since some people seem clueless.
As a VF player, I don't really understand other people's excitement towards the inclusion of VF characters. I also main Pai and I'm not the least bit excited about her appearance.
It's a nice gesture from TN though. I'm glad the series is getting some outside love.
I like her.
Those facial rigs are really limiting or they haven't messed w/ the facial animations yet. That's usually the last pass anyways.
This game is the last bastion against that crowd. March on, Team Ninja!Team Ninja has been missing a female for the dfc crowd.
Just started video: Nooo at Tina's southern accent.
No, you see MMA is not a fighting style, its a sport that allows all kinds of fighting styles.
Most common ones are Muay Thai, Karate, Taekwon-Do and Brazilian Ju-Jitsu. And yes, most fighters combine arts from these but the fighting style is not called MMA ;D
(then again, it wouldn't be the first time a fighting game character has a silly name for him/her fighting style...some KOF characters describe the style as "Violence")
I was thinking that. DOA has always had pretty bad facial animations though. Smiles and slightly widened eyes are the extent of their expressions.
It is. I'm interested in seeing Pai's model to say the least. VF5 is starting to look a little dated to me so I'm wondering if SEGA let TN mess with the model a little bit. It might be a sign of things to come. Maybe?Akira is my favourite character and i'm kind of interested to try out a new interpretation of his play style. of course its not the same as a new VF game but its better than nothing

That's about it though. I know Pai is going to play differently and I don't want to relearn a character that I know top to bottom in another game. I'll probably pick up Lei Fang again.

At this point, MMA is a fighting style. Gyms teach it. Some fighters in the UFC list it as their fighting style. Sambo started off as a hybrid of Russian (and it's satellite states) traditional folk wrestling, Kokodan judo, karate, and boxing. Kickboxing was originally karate and boxing. Taekwondo was karate and taekkyeon. Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do is primarily wing chun, savate, and empty hand Filipino martial arts. The list goes on and on.No, you see MMA is not a fighting style, its a sport that allows all kinds of fighting styles.

AM2 sent over all the data for the VF models and, IIRC, Team Ninja used the VF render models as their base instead of the in-game models.It is. I'm interested in seeing Pai's model to say the least.

Just because a style started off as a hybrid doesn't make it any less of it's own original style, especially since that's how 90+% of styles start off that way.

everything is fine just about, aside from Tina's voice. But at least it's different.
Deposited.I give you two (2) internet props.
This video shows exactly what's wrong with DOA: you successfully hit your opponent but you're still afraid to attack.New footage released by Tecmo Koei today also lists Pai under its copyright info at the end of the vid, confirming her appearance.

didn't we already know this from the DOA5 character data from the demo?
she looks fun to play with so i'm looking forward to the official reveal trailer.

So guessing, guessing and... more guessing. Great! Maybe now you understand Itagaki's famous words: "Guess faster."That's why characters have delayable/cancelable attacks and 50/50 mix ups off almost everything

Mind games in every other fighter are all on the first hit. Once you get that, you're golden. Not so much in DOA and that's why it gets, and deserves, so much grief.Mind games

If I was salty about that then I'd leak a bunch of other stuff. Like all the story mode chapters, more outfits or something.Someone's still salty about their videos being taken down, I see.

Mind games, fighting games in general are all about smart guesses. Actually most competive gaming is guess based. GUESS YOU BETTER QUIT GAMING or go play tetris
Which is why launchers are strong in it. Also a bad guess leaves you DESTROYED in DoA. Mashing for random counters in DoA is the dumbest shit in the world you could do playing it.
No, launchers were strong in DOA++, 2 and 3. They're not in DOA4, Dimensions or 5 because you have to successfully stun your opponent three or four times before you can launch them as high as you could in the older games.Which is why launchers are strong in it.

SF3, Tekken, SC, SF4, etc... > Guess wrong, get combo'ed
DoA > Guess wrong, try again, guess wrong, try again, guess wrong try again
Yes, all competitive gaming has guessing, but DoA has A LOT more than most. That's why it's sounding like the best characters are the ones that can circumvent DoA's stun system and play it like a "normal" fighter.
