Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball

Getting beach volleyball on the mind is dangerous thing to do. Besides the tributes to Rock that incessantly play during the breaks in play, Genki misses the innocence of a Dig on the beach being a precursor to building a moat for a sandcastle and when a Monster Block was a friend with a rather enlarged head. Whilst the jury may still be out as to whether its a serious Olympic sport or a sub-tropical sideline conga-ing along the IOC bandwagon, it role is very much cemented in video gaming heritage.


The Dead or Alive developer Tecmo has always been one to court controversy and these very sweet off shoot from the Xtreme Beach Volleyball game look a perfect piece if visual candy with Hitomi chan clutching a volleyball in bear pants. Highly desirable piece of skilled craftsmanship and an essential icon for the figure collecting, games fan. And those after a tribute to the bubbly sport of beach volleyball.
