When selcting your character's costume, confirm your selection with either X\Y or the White button to change Kasumi and Lei Fang's hair. X\Y with Kasumi will give her a pony tail. White with Kasumi will give her a braid. X\Y\White with Lei Fang will have her hair down.

Press X on the following stages to play a variation of that level:

The Aerial Gardens
The White Storm
The Great Opera

Complete the matching sparring exercises to unlock the announcer voices for Ayane, Kasumi, Ein, Tengu and Raidou.

Dead Or Alive 2 Ultimate Disc: This can only be done in Ayane's story mode. When you get to the fight with Kasumi and the snow level (it will always be the snow level when you fight Kasumi), knock/get knocked down into the lower level, the ice cave, and continue fighting there. Win the round with a final blow that will send Kasumi a considerable distance from you (about fifteen feet away from Ayane, QCF + Kick works well). Instead of the usual intermission sequence, Ayane will perform a magic technique and shoot some sort of fireball at the unsuspecting Kasumi.

Play for 10 hours to unlock Bayman.

Press X or BLACK while selecting a stage to alter the arena.

After choosing your character, press X, Y, or White while choosing your costume to change hairstyles. This trick works for Kasumi and Lei Fang only.

During the ending victory sequence, press L or R to rotate the view. Use the Right Analog-stick to move the view up or down.

Beat story mode on each difficulty with every character to unlock every costume.

While playing in survival, if you punch or kick your opponent while they are lying on the ground, they will drop a collection item. Note: Certain characters can only punch opponents that are on the ground and certain characters can only kick opponents that are on the ground.

Successfully complete the game with any character. This will also allow ring size configurations.

When playing as Ayane in the fight against Kasumi if you knock Kasumi off the cliff and kill her about 10 feet away you get a cutscene with Ayane shooting a fireball at Kasumi.

In the level "The Crimson" if you knock someone through the glass window on the upper level, you will go to another area. In this area is a picture of Christie from "Dead or Alive 3" on the wall, as well as a Prototype Xbox connected to a T.V. If you hit someone into the Xbox and T.V., the Xbox will light up and the Xbox logo will be displayed on the screen.

Beat story mode on Normal with Ein, must have a DOA3 or DOAXBV save.

Go to the settings and set your age to 99. This will increase how "bouncy" the girls are.

On Zack's C3 and C5 costumes, if you taunt during a match, they will light up for the round. If you taunt again, it will turn off.

In the fireworks stage, you can see either Katsumi or Ayane in the fireworks. It can take a few minutes to happen.

When your opponent is near a slope (will not work on staircases) press Throw . Your character will do a unique move using the slope, other than just knocking them down the hill. Different characters have different slope moves For example, Jack will ride the opponent down the hill like a snowboard, and Jann Lee will slide down the hill holding the opponent's face to the ground. Some levels that have slopes include White Storm, Safari, and Suspension Bridge.

To make Hitomi playable in DOA 2 Ultimate, you must first have a Dead Or Alive 3 OR Dead Or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball save file on your Xbox Hard Disk or Memory Unit. Once you do, finish Story Mode on Normal difficulty (you may change other settings) with Ein. Hitomi will be playable in all modes except Story Mode.

On the initial page, you have to use each character and obtain their 3 unique items each, as well as the 4 generic items. You also have to obtain the medal which is dropped after your 50th win on survival (any difficulty) Once you have your first page full on the collection, it will open up a second page, with 15 more items. With each of the 15 fighters again, you must obtain their last unique 'rare' item, and upon doing so, you unlock all costumes, cg gallery and the DOA3 booster pack (for those that don't already have it). My thanks to the DOA boards.
