The editors didn't like

  • There are a few characters with some balance issues that "Force" their way into the game. I am not naming any names
  • But Lord knows a few need some polishing. On top of that I do wish for two other things
  • The opening "text" storyline for each character n...
  • Non-canon fighters are largely imbalanced or throw-away
  • Occasional online hiccups.
  • Theres no team battle mode
  • Story mode is short and disappointing
  • You cant pit Yoda against Darth Vader
  • Yet.
  • Online can lag at times
  • Some characters are simply palette swaps
  • The game sure has slowed down in comparison to Soulcalibur IIs speed.

  • Abstract:  While other fighting games go for a more realistic approach, SoulCalibur is the king of funky and original. It's been a few years since the franchise saw first light on the SEGA Dreamcast (nine, to be exact). The series has seen nothing but success wherev...

  • We don’t normally fawn over titles like this, but when a developer steps up to the plate and gets everything right, they deserve praise.At it’s core Soulcalibur IV is an great-feeling fighter. Surrounding that core are some minor bells and whistles lik...

  • Abstract:  There is just something about playing Soul Calibur that makes me extremely nostalgic for the Dreamcast. Call me crazy, but there’s just something about the experience that makes me fondly recall my initial introduction to the series there. Perhaps it ...

  • All in all, Soul Calibur 4 is a good game, although not completely what I expected from the first jump to the current generation of consoles. While a good game when standing on its own, I still feel that the Star Wars crossover was unneeded. Sure, Sou...

  • The game sure has slowed down in comparison to Soulcalibur IIs speed.
  • While it isnt the best fighter to come out in 2008, it does a lot of things well enough to keep fans happy and intrigue new-comers.

  • Abstract:  Namco has been making 3D fighters since the inception of the PS one. Gamers were first wowed by the Tekken series for its accessible game play; with deep enough fighting styles that would make any master of the series humble a rookie as well. Then we w...
