Dead or Alive FAQ v2.0 (PSX - Import)
======================================
by: Felix Wong
This is a FAQ for the Japanese version of Dead or Alive. All of
the things listed in this FAQ are for the Japanese version of the game; I
don't know if they're the same for the U.S. version. This version of the
FAQ contains clarifications of how to get all of the costumes, as well as
the second way of getting the Extra Options.
This FAQ doesn't include a move list; I figure there are enough
of those out there right now, anyway. (And besides, every character has
more than 50 different moves...*wargh*)
(And one last thing - if anyone uses this online, please indicate that
this particular FAQ was originally written by me. Thanks!)
Extra Options
*************
These are 7 options that are hidden when you first start playing
the game. They are located under the Option menu, under the heading
"Extra Config". I've copied them exactly as they appear in the game,
spelling errors and all. :)
All of these methods should work for the import version; they may
be the same for the U.S. version. (I don't know for sure, though...)
1) Fighting Order Default/Random/Manual
- to get this option:
a) beat the game with any character on any setting
b) game time counter passes 3:00:00
2) Safety Zone Size Nothing/Normal/All
- to get this option:
a) beat Time Attack in under 5:00:00 at normal settings or harder
b) game time counter passes 6:00:00
3) Danger Damage No Damage/Small/Normal/Large/Critical
- to get this option:
a) beat 10 characters or more in Survival Mode
b) game time counter passes 9:00:00
4) Danger Bounce No bound/Normal/High
- to get this option:
a) beat Kumite mode with 80% or higher win rate
b) game time counter passes 12:00:00
5) Sysytem Voice Normal/Sakura/Wakana
- to get Sakura's voice:
a) play Kasumi (outside of Training mode) more than 100 times
b) game time counter passes 15:00:00
- to get Wakana's voice:
a) get Ayane as a playable character
b) game time counter passes 6:00:00 (???)
6) Extra Voice provides extra voices for all characters
- to get this option:
in Training Mode, turn on the Command Mode option; if you
successfully complete all of the moves (i.e. they all turn
yellow) for a character, than that character will be available
in the Extra Voice option
* thanks to sidhe@fia.net for this one!
7) CG Gallery allows you to see all background screens
- to get this option:
obtain all of Ayane's costumes

Other Secrets
*************
Fight Ayane: defeat all characters before Raidou in under 6'
Get Raidou: beat Tournament mode on default settings or harder with
all of the normal characters
Get Ayane: get all costumes for all of the other characters
Extra Costumes
**************
There are two levels of extra costumes: A Level and B level. The
A Level costumes can be gotten by beating the game at any option setting.
The B level costumes can only be gotten using these settings:
1) Normal or higher difficulty
2) 2 rounds
3) 30+ second round limit
4) No change in length of life bar
All normal characters start with 3 available costumes and have at
least 2 more. You get one extra costume for a character each time you
beat the game with that character.
Costumes are listed in the order that you get them. I tried to
describe them as clearly as possible. :)
