Dead or Alive 2... again? Should just name it Alive 2 at this point this is the 5th version of the game...
Dead or Alive 2: Hardcore is a new version of Dead or Alive 2: Limited Edition (JP) for the Dreamcast which itself is a new version of Dead or Alive 2 on the PlayStation 2 (JP) and that version is an "upgraded" port of the Dreamcast version from the USA and that one is a console version with new content based on Dead or Alive 2: Millenium and that game is an updated arcade cabinet based on Dead or Alive 2 Arcade, got that?
Overall this is just another great version of Dead or Alive 2, it adds some new stages, Item collection, CG gallery, and all that type of junk they can fit in a new rerelease, it also includes a complete English dub which is nice, it's nothing amazing and obviously the type of voice acting you'd get in every 2000's games. There isn't anything worth ditching the Dreamcast Limited Edition but I do think the game looks a bit nicer and the cutscenes are a lot nicer, it's also important to note that there's a 6th version of Dead or Alive 2 called Dead or Alive 2: HardCore which is a Japanese version of this release with a new costume and more junk like always, so this still isn't the definitive edition, HardCore is. (Both versions include English text so Hard*Core is the way to go)
I personally like this version as much or even better than the Dreamcast original, they both play well, they both look nice, and you can't go wrong with either.
