He criticized the enemy AI as "awful" even on the hardest difficulty, and noted a lack of different fighting moves between characters.[5] Heidi Kemps of Official Xbox Magazine rated it 3.5/10 points, calling it "stupefyingly unattractive" and "hilariously un-sexy" despite its supposed emphasis on sex appeal, and calling Skullgirls and Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate "far superior products".[6] Lorenzo Baldo of IGN Italia rated the game 4/10 points, calling it "disgraceful" and immature, and saying that feminists would be right to be angry about the game.[7]
