New DOA4 auto update

This one balances things out.

Tecmo has released a new automatic update for Xbox 360 fighter Dead or Alive 4.

Apparently this one includes some small adjustments to the interfaces and "balances" characters, tweaking moves like launchers, stuns and sweeps. A few characters' speeds have changed - some are faster, and some are slower. And there's bad news for button bashers - certain power moves now do less damage, so you'll have to play a bit more skilfully.

When you download the update, you'll also get the option to reset your battle tactics - but your Zack money, avatars and so on will not be affected.

The new DOA4 update is available now via Xbox Live.
