We're betting that the above image already piqued your interest and that we don't have to say much for you to click the "Read" link below. But we'll explain anyway. Over at gamerhelp they've wrangled together over 30 special screenshots of
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 ... and we mean special. Everyone knows that the core focus of the
DOA series is all about the gameplay (yeah, right), but they're chock full of half naked women too. So, if you're interested in some pron-like
DOA screenshots get a clicking, but be warned they aren't G, PG, or even PG-13 ... maybe not even R.
Update 1: Fixed the spelling errors ... the peak of the mountain was made of chalk.

It didn't take long, and
DOAX2 videos are already flooding YouTube. It's a veritable bevy of busty digital babes, with videos of the various minigames everywhere. The pole dancing sequences, however, take the cake. While most of the minigames, from butt battles to beach races, can be written off as innocent excursions, the pole dancing can be called nothing other than what it is ... um ... it's pole dancing. Sample a digital vixen shaking her stuff after the break. Be warned, the video is not safe for work (and some of the other ones we've found are
very not safe for work).

Earlier this month, we
reported that a former Tecmo employee was charging Tomonobu Itagaki (creator of the
DOA series) with sexual harassment. After completing its own internal investigations, Tecmo has publicly responded, categorically denying the sexual harassment claims. Furthermore, the company clarifies that the woman was not fired but quit of her own volition. After that, however, things get a little sticky. From what we can gather,
something definitely happened. According to Tecmo, the woman (and presumably Itagaki) "mingled personal affairs with their corporate responsibilities," resulting in "unnecessary confusion." In the aftermath, both the woman and Itagaki were demoted and had their salaries reduced. Something tells us "unnecessary confusion" must be pretty serious if it results in a pay cut. In an attempt to counteract the defamation of his name, Itagaki plans to countersue his accuser for damages.
Sexual harassment is no joke, but one has to wonder if this has affected the sales of
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2.

Tomonobu Itagaki, the man behind Xbox hits
Ninja Gaiden and the
Dead or Alive series, has been formally charged with sexual harassment. According to ZAKZAK, the former employee -- she quit on September 10th -- claims that she had a physical relationship with Itagaki since 2003 and is asking for the sum of 10 million yen (US $85,000). Itagaki acknowledges the relationship, but claims that it was consensual. Itagaki has reportedly been demoted at Team Ninja, though it is unclear if this was done as punishment or if it was done to downplay his image in court.
We have to admit the grim humor of the situation. He
is the creator of
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2, after all. We're fairly certain that it's at least a
little funny that the man who basically introduced 3D
bouncing breasts to the world is now being charged with sexual harassment. Whatever the outcome, we hope it doesn't interfere with
Ninja Gaiden 2. We'd also like to note that this news traveled very fast; Itagaki's Wikipedia page is already updated for crying out loud! For our Japanese savvy readers, feel free to translate the original article.
Man, first there are
movies on Marketplace, and now Tomonobu Itagaki is busted for sexual harassment. This is shaping up to be a weird day.

We never thought we'd say this, but the new
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 trailer may be
too bouncy. Available on Marketplace right now (the old E3 trailer has been
re-re-released as well), the trailer is very long and very bouncy. So bouncy that it's disturbing, and, dare we say it, unrealistic. But that's really what it's all about, right? Still, this trailer is
naughty. Lei Fang on a stripper pole, a little girl on girl "back rub" action, and more
tiny swimsuits than you can shake a stick at. Honestly, we wouldn't be surprised if
DOAX2 becomes a media target when it ships this winter. Seriously, it's just south of actual porn. See what all the fuss is about after the break. Oh, and they're all
technically wearing clothes, but it's still probably NSFW
.

The TGS video madness continues with this clip of
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2. We all know
DOAX2 is about watching digital hotties in swimsuits, but this is just south of ridiculous. Just when you thought Itagaki and friends couldn't get any raunchier (remember the
E3 video?), they go and make this. Let's just say this: the video is technically safe for work, but don't let anyone catch you watching it. Before checking out the video, we would be remiss if we didn't note a few things. One, it looks like the hair physics have improved since
DOA4. Two, the game should hit the States on November 15th (before Japan actually). Our Japanese is rusty, but we're guessing that the date mentioned for Europe was "coming soon" -- can anyone translate?
Click onward if you dare; you have been warned.

No, that X on Kasumi's stomach doesn't mark buried treasure -- and if it did, it certainly wouldn't be on her stomach. That X means only one thing, Kasumi has committed a fashion faux pas and allowed herself to get a tan line. Great. All anyone wanted was to relax with some nice, scantily-clad volleyball and, ahem,
hip wrestling, and now we have to micro manage
tans? Sheesh.
Look on the bright side, if you get creative enough, maybe you can line the girls up and make it spell something.

Xboxygen has scored some scans of DOAX2 from the latest Famitsu. To be honest, some of these pictures are downright shameful. But, what should we expect from a man who designs his games
drunk? Take a look at the upper left corner of the first scan for a little scissor icon. Digital pin-ups? Just for a change of pace, the second scan features actual volleyball and jet skis.
Anyone care to translate, or are the pictures universal?

In case you missed it the
first time, the E3
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 trailer has been re-released on Marketplace. The trailer shows off some of the titillating activities the lovely ladies of
DOA will be performing. These include jet ski racing, watersliding, taking pictures, and -- ahem --
hip wrestling.
It's an old trailer, but I'll do anything to post that picture again (rawr!).
