Yeah, the graphics are really nice, but it's not what I'd call really stylish (and that goes for the other DOA games, too). I'm not sure why everyone thinks that the DOA series has so much style - the gameplay sounds like it's generally solid, and the graphics engines are great, but there's a difference between having nice graphics and a unique sense of style. The DOA games look pretty, but I don't think that they do anything really new.
That's my two cents, anyway - let me know what you think.
I watched the video review on it. They said at the end "Next time, how about you have some substance with your style?" or something like that.

Who the hell wants to play volleyball in real life, OR the computer?

Of course its for the grils! As I said: ZOOM FUNCTION.
