It's good to see more of how this game's shaping up, though I gotta say... what happened to toning down the sex appeal? To portraying the girls as fighters rather than underwear models? Those early gameplay screeenshots and trailers featuring Ayane and Hitomi alongside Hayate and Hayabusa seem a long way away now, and not really representative of what we're seeing.
I want this game and hate to be cynical but it seems like all that was purely a marketing gimmick to make DOA5 seem 'fresh' and 'new'... whereas right now it very much looks like just another DOA game.
