Time to revisit my old friend Soul Calibur IV, wow I had alot of fun with this game when I bought it and I still do... sometimes, it really got repudiative and I think it is finally time to adress that, it's time to revisit the goods, the bads and play soul calibur IV. Lets get started

-Gameplay

When I think of Soul Calibur, I think of weapons and that is exactly what you get in this game, swords, poles, dual knifes, chains and even swords that turn into chains! The fighting isn't over the top and it is pretty slow at times, I do enjoy the Critical Finishes that have just recently been added to the game, it gets ridiculously hard when you get to the later levels of the story, even when your on the normal setting sometimes, this really put me off the game and namco really should work on that when they make SC games in the future. Your best chance to survive is if you use a small fast character such as Taki or someone along those lines, big characters such as Astaroth usually have no chance at all against someone smaller and faster, unless of course the computer is using him -___-

Gameplay- 7/10

-Story

Soul Calibur's story is about 2 swords Soul Edge and Soul Calibur and each character has there own storie on trying to obtain it, I don't want to sound lazy here but I can't remember any more to the story then what I got here but I played it recently and that was pretty much the whole story from what I heard and read, apart from different endings theres not much more to say but I did enjoy seeing some of the character videos

Story- 7.5/10

-Graphics

This is were I feel this game is the strongest, the graphics are very good and I think they could be mistaken for 2010 graphics by quite a few people, the detail in the faces, light reflecting off the metal and everything else. I was in shock the first time I saw the graphics on this game because I didn't really expect much, well I was wrong to do so

Graphics- 9.2/10

-Music

There isn't much to say about the music, it's your straight forward fighting game music, thats another thing I like about this game, it's music isn't to slow or bland or to fast paced and lame. Well I can't really say much more, but it is alright and nothing that will put you off the game.

Music- 8/20

I'll sometimes go back and play it but it isn't a game that i'll jump to first

Overall- 7.9/10
