Looks pretty good. Seems kinda like a mindless beat em up though. Who knows, maybe it'll be more like Zelda but they only showed the exciting stuff.

Graphics aren't great. Could use better textures. Looks really fun through. Co-op is gonna be a blast.

Either I'm an easy-to-please gamer or everyone else is picky, but after seeing this trailer I want the game even more than I did when I first heard about it.

It's not that I hate the Wii or anything, but I honestly think that this game is going to be garbage. There hasn't really been a succesful spinoff of a fighting game franchise yet and I doubt this one will turn things around. It would have been a better idea to include this as part of SCIV.

This game looks very nice, although I really wish they would make something like this for the PS3/Xbox 360 so the graphics could be better. I'm not really crazy about the Wiimote either.

Besides from that, I think this has a good chance to be one of the best action games ever made. Honestly, if you took the Soul Calibur II/III fighting system and put it in an action game with top-notch AI it would be deep. I mean, can any of you honestly say there has been a fighting system that's more deep then something like Soul Calibur II in an action game?

This game will be awesome, co-op will make it even better. Expect this one to be a solid AAA title for the Wii.

Ugh, I knew they were going to 'simplify' the controls; let's just hope there's enough diversity in the moveset to keep the gameplay refreshing. For now, i'll purchase it for the Soul Calibur name alone, but at the moment I wasn't too impressed.

Looks decent. My guess is a low-AA title that's worth a rental at least.

Sony didn't have a good track record for consoles when they brought out the Playstation. The Play Station didn't even sell 500. You never know what might happen.

In fighting games, there's not much to render in a stage cuz you don't travel in it. More polygons can be put in thoses. In adventures games, it's a different story.

They didn't have much competition back in the day either. I think all they had to compete with was Sega's Saturn, Atari's Jaguar and Nintendo's rumored 'Ultra 64.'

Look it up. Shortly after the deal with Nintendo went sour, Sony released the Play Station. It was a huge flop. Note, that's Play Station, two words, not Playstation, which is their 100million selling console, one word.

everything about the game looks great, but the plot and characters look terribly stock to me, with emphasis on terribly

edit: i'm guessing about the plot

Hmm, better than I expected, that's for sure. Honestly, I think it could be a good game. This certainly looks like it's getting more attention, and hell.. I've wanted a sword slashing game, and this definately looks better than say Red Steel. I think I'll be sastified, if it's long enough, has enough diversity, and recieves more tweaks.

Controls? Fine. Graphics? Not bad. Story? So-so. Environments? Horrible. I don't see this getting AA. The missions and level designs aren't looking so hot, and some effects are very poorly done. The combat doesn't look too repetitive, but it's looking too much like a Gundam game but simplified. Why they chose those five characters (other than Nightmare) I will never know, because Kilik should've been in there. My verdict? High B, some chance of A.

Looks alright at best. I think it'll end up really repetetive and the graphics could use alot of work. I can't believe no developer has yet to acheive the the quality of graphics that SMG and even SSBB presents. It's really kind of sad because the Wii isn't THAT underpowered.

Lets all put it this way. Looking at expectaions. If this game gets above 7.5 it will have exceeded most peoples expectaions.

Yeap. How many unique missions did you see in the trailer? Some beat-em-up action with a couple characters on screen, hitting a boulder up a steep hill, and fighting a boss. If they had something impressive to show in the areas of environments and design they'd at least show some of it. The only thing I see saving it is the combat and boss battles. Sure, this is all my speculation, but you can still get alot out of a trailer about a game.

:lol:  Missions???  That must be pretty incredible, being able to tell the missions of the characters from a series of short action clips!  Please, tell me how you do it.  

this game is going to be good.  AA.  The control scheme looked like it really worked, and that is pretty much the only thing I need to enjoy this game, a 1:1 control scheme, and you've got me hooked.

We've already seen screenshots with at least 5 real enemies on screen; no more than you had in Ninja Gaiden. And some developers don't like to reveal and spoil everything before the game comes out (*cough*CRYSIS*cough*)

Looks pretty good. Seems kinda like a mindless beat em up though. Who knows, maybe it'll be more like Zelda but they only showed the exciting stuff.nintendofreak_2

Is being a beat em up that bad? It's almost like those old arcade side scrollers, but in 3d, or that's how it looks. TBH I find that prospect very exciting. They have 4 characters who all have very different types of weapon, so character differentiation is in.

Yeah... it actually looks pretty cool to me. I really hope it's good.
