    I Like it, love it, or somewhere inbetween.

    I like Soul Caliber 4. Not all of the charectors have giant tits... My favorite charector, Talim, has maybe an A cup. I agree that Yoda and Vadar are lame... I don't use them, problem solved. Everyone says... "It's not as good as the first one"... When was the last time you played it? Soul Edge has problems that are just not acceptable by today's video game standards (AI gone stupid, for example). Plus, effects have gotten way better over the years... Visually, Soul Edge... is boring now. We all go back and play old Street Fighter games every now and then... But we bust out the feeble story mode in 10 mins and then laugh about how hard it used to be when we we're kids. Another thing about that I don't agree with... When was the last time you understood a fighter's story line? Fighting games have story lines that don't make any sense! It's not a problem with this game, but almost all fighting games... It's almost industry standard at this point.

    Bottom Line:
    I like it. The customization options and clothing could be better, but is alot of fun anyway. The graphics are not the best, but they are really good. The combos are satisfying and provide the right amount of challenge. Guest charectors are lame, don't use them! All and all, it's not ground breaking... But still REALLY fun.

            Within the vast array of fighting games available on the market, there has always been one series that has asserted its uniqueness and style within the slew of traditional fighters. Yes, I’m talking about Tecmo’s Soul Calibur series. There’s no denying that this weapon-based fighting frenzy has made an impact on the fighting game genre, and even though it dates back to the simpler days of Dreamcast, it still retains its essence with Soul Calibur IV on the Xbox 360. Obviously, no game is ...

      Soulcalibur IV is the newest game of the perpetually misspelled, weapon based fighting series. The fighting is exactly what you would expect if you have played any other game in the series. It mainly focuses around blocking and parrying different weapons then exploiting your foe in their time of weakness. The wide variety of weapons covers anything from razor sharp katana to obnoxiously large diamond swords. With so many different types of weapons and fighting styles it remains unique from other...
