When you see the opening cutscene and hear the announcer say SOOUUL CAALIIBEER IV you'll be ready to play with style
User Rating: 8.5 | SoulCalibur IV X360
Soul Calibur IV is a fun game just plain and simple. Although it lacks in story it make up for control mechanics and fun gameplay. The Character Creation is very fun and it's interesting to see what you can create out of what you are given. The graphics are absolutely lush and pretty and when in character creation it is almost impossible to create a TRULY ugly character becasue of all the colors. The story mode is short yes but when playing against someone is where it truly shines. Yes it maybe just a beefed up SC3 but it deserves and 8.5 from me because of how much fun I had with it. Whether it is fun for you I don't know but if you are ever bored you should definately at least rent this for the weekend.
Good: Graphics, character design, environment, online mutliplayer/at home multiplayer, playability, fun to play. Worth fifty dollars or at least a rental
Bad: shallow story, No online tower of souls, shallow character background
My Score: 8.5 (you decide how you like it before you buy it)
