SOULCALIBUR IV REVIEW PS3 PS3

Its a fighting game, so storyline should not be a big issue for any player but there is one there for the reading if you so wish.Īnyone who's play a Soul Calibur game will be familiar to the type of music played in SC4, the chimes of knightly valor and honor like a modern medieval brawl is the same here.

If you get confused, the more you play, the more a character-relation-graph gets filled so that should fill in the gaps anyone would have. each character does have an in depth role that connects to the two blades and with each other in some way. Other than the main story being that of Sigfried's fight against the Soul Blade, most of the characters are mainly on the outside of this anyways, so no complaints on my end. Some people complained that they can't see how Yoda, Vader and the whole Star Wars Universe could be added to the whole Soul Calibur storyline but with my first story-mode win being that of Yoda, it seems fine to me. In other words, the characters, the background and also the special effects looks amazing and not plastered in.

Granted I didn't play the P laystation 3 version of the game but graphically both Xbox 360 and PS3 are about the same with PS3 being the one slightly better but chances are playing both versions of this game, as I'm told seem almost identical graphically. One quick look and you can see that the Xbox 360's textures were used very elegantly to give the correct texture of even the most detailed clothing. Speaking of armor and clothing for that matter, great detail was put into the look of them. Chances are there are more things like that in the stages I didn't play. One stage I noticed does have a row of soldiers that slowly move in and shorten the playing field. Most of which have the common closed environment or the familiar open area with the loved or hated ring-out possibility. Wasn't able to unlock all the levels in my allotted time but that's a good thing, since that means there are some to chose from. Backgrounds are just as fluid and as graphical as the characters in the arena so there is a great sense of depth to the stages. Like the previous Soul Calibur games, SC4 manages to utilize the graphic engine very well to bring not only nice looking characters but amazing flow to their movement and fighting that makes it seem like real people (or creatures) are involved and not lifeless dolls. Due to this, my review won't be as in depth as for other games but I got a good day of playing thanks to a good friend of mine who might down the road be my brother-in-law. My current Xbox 360 is suffering from the one ring of death so its going to be sent to Microsoft for repairs. Hey everyone! Got a chance to sit down and get some hands on experience with the Xbox 360 version of Soul Calibur 4.
