This isn't the best Soul Calibur but it does make up for the third one. Almost all of your classic stars are here with around 4 new ones & a bunch of created character look alikes. The PS3 has Darth Vader & he is amazing. He has a force meter under his health for your force moves like a force pull or a force choke. Now I enjoyed playing with Vader until I unlocked his Apprentice from the new force unleashed game then I said "Vader who?" Fast moves, cool air combos & force powers that are...Unleashed. I think he's also in the 360 version as well but with Vader together, the PS3 version was my pick. I got my hands on the game 2 weeks before street date so I did finished it many times. The online wasn't ready so I couldn't try it out. The single player has arcade, story & a tower battle that you fight your way to the top with two characters almost like Tekken tag but not as cool. Once you fight to the top you can make your way back down. The story mode is quick. I mean that my girlfriend can finish it in less than 15 min & she hasn't played since Soul Calibur 2. the tower is a nice touch with around 20 floors with no less than 4 fighters a floor but its all about playing with another person. You can create your own characters or just edit any of the regular ones. You can change there outfits, hair & wepons. The only bad side is that you can't change Darth Vader or The Apprentice except there lightsabers but not the colors. If there's an option you have to unlock to do that then I haven't got it yet. If you are a Soul Calibur fan & you didn't like Soul Calibur 3 or it turned you off the series then 4 will get you back.
Soul Calibur is a series that has never really let it's fans down. With its deep, yet easy to get into, battle system, lively cast of characters, and gorgeous visuals, Soul Calibur has pretty much always been near the ... Read Full Review
When I first heard SC4 was coming out, I was probably the happiest chick in the world. I had so much fun with SC2 and SC3--they're some of my fav games ever. I love the new characters Setsuka and Tira from SC3, so I coul... Read Full Review
