Gleaned from Gamespot....
Dennis Rodman, former NBA badboy, will be the voice actor for Zack in DOAXV. And I'm not quite sure what to make of the move, though it does add even more buzz to this game (Which will be one of the most hyped games of next year, though little of the hype is for the gameplay).....

can't say it isn't a good casting move... but then again, I can't say I really give a damn (oh sure I'm buying the game, but you can switch between Japanese and English voices... I'll probably listen to Rodman and English Tina miss pronouce Lei's name as "Laa-Fang" once then switch back)

1. Doesn't Zack already have an English voice actor (who's perfectly okay, IMHO)?
2. Since they're just going to be recording his voice, does it really make sense to shell out for a big name former NBA star?
3. Doesn't the non-Tecmo aligned video game media have, y'know, some kind of obligation to report on the actual gameplay?
Sheesh, it's almost not worth discussing this game anymore. This is one of those hot upcoming releases that just creates more and more trepidation with each new news tidbit. (Not to mention that it's gone on seemingly forever. Did Grand Theft Auto 3 have half as much buildup as this?)

Grand Theft Auto 3 didn't have much anticipation. I think it was a real surprise to everyone how well the game turned out and how popular it became.

Rodman = free publicity.

He was the inspiration for Zack, and I haven't seen him do anything noteworthy lately. Last I remember he was pitching Carl's Jr. ads.

There were impressions from another site, but the bastards at IGN had them taken down. They were positive too.

I HATE IGN.
...by the way, how could they make someone take down an article on their site if IGN has nothing to do with them? Was it copied from IGN's site and pasted at the other one?

Zack just owns the island, he doesn't actually play volleyball in the game.

I haven't got to play DOA much. Which guy is Zac?

Zack is just the coolest (if not among the top 3) guys in DoA
He's the African-American Muay-Thai (or as they call it "funky kick boxing) fighter.
He's the one with the teletubby costume too. (I like him, he might be a "joke" but he's still a blast to use... like every other 'joke character'!)

Nope, all original. IGN's just being a bitch.
Wait. So does IGN have some kind of deal with Tecmo, that they are the only ones who can publish info on DOAX (unlikely) or what? How can they force another site to take down information?

No shit. I really think tokyopia needs to put those impressions back up. There is absolutely jack shit IGN or anyone else can do legally about it. Unless someone at tokyopia SIGNED something before he checked out DOAX, anything he says about the game is obviously covered by both freedom of Speech and Press.
