An excellent fighting game

Strengths: Character customization, online play, tight controls

Weakness: console-specific character = money grab

Simply put, Soul Calibur IV is a fantastic fighting game. If you were ever a fan of the previous entries in the series (or fighting games in general), then this game does not disappoint. The controls are tight, the graphics are excellent, and even the online multiplayer seemed to work quite well, which is no easy task considering the fast-paced nature of a fighting game. Character customization...

Best in the series so far

Strengths: Awesome graphics; addition of online play

Weakness: online lag; no playable Yoda on PS3 (yet?)

I've been a fan of the Soul Calibur series for years. Continuing the style of the series, this sequel is still easy to pick up, but takes a long time to master. Single-player modes are not the main attraction here, but it's enough to keep you busy for a while. The story mode's story is pretty lame; Tower of Lost souls really tests your skills; the character creation can be real time sink. The...

soul caliber iv

Strengths: very fast paced, good visuals, lots of characters, customization

Weakness: steep learning curve, button masher for inexperienced

I’ve always enjoyed the soul caliber series, but was never a loyal fan. I was never able to get used to the fighting gameplay. Gamers in my situation might feel like this game is merely a button masher. The game has a lot of depth and technique to it. The problem is learning it. I’ve spent a lot of time in practice mode and feel very different about the game after learning combos and how the...

SoulCalibur IV

Strengths: Gameplay, Darth Vader

Weakness: hs

SoulCalibur IV is the fourth installment of the SoulCalibur fighting series but this time on the next-gen platform in high definition glory. The graphics looks amazing and jawdroppingly detailed. In addition to the familiar Story, Arcade, Training and Museum modes from the previous installments, new is Tower of Lost Souls mode which allows players to fight special battles for rewards. Also new to...

Soul Calibur IV (PS3)

Strengths: Graphics, fighting

Weakness: None

Soul Calibur IV is the best Soul Calibur game to date. The graphics is gorgeous and believably real. The fighting is amazing. I have played Tekken, Virtua Fighter and Dragonball Z, and I found myself more entertained and satisfied in the game. The addition of the famous character, Darth Vader, in the PS3 version of the game is a welcome surprise. The CG model looks very realistic and the voice...

Soulcalibur IV

SoulCalibur IV has a few problems, but what the game does right, it does fantastically. The action is the same fast and furious SoulCalibur gameplay that we’ve all come to love, and the addition of online play is necessary and solidly implemented.
