Yeah....so the Dead or Alive series is never going to win any awards for strong female leads really. It's a series that's loosely based around fighting mechanics, but it's evolved over the years to become nothing more than a mass of jiggling female body parts in increasingly nicer-rendered and skimpier outfits. Is a bra that just say covers up the nipples an ideal fighting outfit? Perhaps as a distraction maybe, but not really in terms of protection. The Dead or Alive series knows that's what its about. It's even embraced the complete objectivization of its women by pumping out several Dead or Alive spin-off games that are basically about sports, but more about women doing sports while jiggling about in skimpy outfits. Many games in the Dead or Alive series also have actually options to either operate the jiggle via motion control, of increase the level of jiggle up to ridiculous amounts. Any gamer who has discovered this option has used it at some point, been profoundly weirded out by the unnatural jiggling action, then reverted back to the appropriate level of jiggle.
