Soul Calibur IV (Xbox 360) Reviews

Soulcalibur IV is a game where you hit people with swords. Or sticks. Or a variety of weapons actually. But don't worry, there's no blood. You can select a warrior from the existing Soul Calibur pantheon (ninjas, pirates, women with improbable yet rather impressive physical and gravitational characteristics) and engage in ...  Read the complete review

== SOULCALIBUR IV == Soulcalibur IV is a fighting game and is actually the fifth installment in the Soulcalibur franchise. The Soulcalibur games have in my opinion taken over as the best fighting game ever. It offers something different and its quite addictive. Also it has a lot of different game modes and most fighting games only ...  Read the complete review

The soul of this game burns brightly. STORY -- A tale of swords and souls eternally retold. I've heard that phrase too many times. Some guy has the power of the two cursed swords: Soul Calibur (the good one) and Soul Edge (the evil one). The warriors want the swords for their own reasons. Power, greed, honour, you get the ...  Read the complete review

I am not a fan of the beat-em-up/fighting genre. However, i have played various installments of the Tekken series and i owned Soul Calibur for the dreamcast - which i enjoyed in my younger days. Therefore i thought i would give this game a go. I bought it for £12.99 from Gamestation which i felt was a fair price for what i ...  Read the complete review

The legendary clash of the blades continues in Soul Calibur IV. Soul Calibur tells the story of the clash between the demonically possessed sword Soul Edge and the spirit sword Soul Calibur, played out through the battles between the series characters. In the game two characters possess the evil sword and the good sword ...  Read the complete review

Beat em ups were never my genre but this game did have me spending hours on it. The game is the latest in the well known series and stands out from the rest of the genre by the fact that you fight with weapons instead of the traditional fist punches. The game has a decent set of character which look absolutely stunning with ...  Read the complete review

A great fighting game with a decent custom fighter system. Most people buying this game will be star wars fans wanting to play as yoda, the apprentice from force unleashed or for 400 ms points darth vader.Even without those characters thisgme would still be worth purchasing. There are sad attempts at a story mode which fails to bring ...  Read the complete review

There isn't going to be many opportunities for me to beat the living daylights out of somebody, not that I'd condone it, however through this game I have discovered that I have a bit of a vicous streak in me. This is good and bad. Firstly it means that if I'm angry with somebody I can vent my frustrations out on my opponents. ...  Read the complete review

I'm not a massive fan of fighting games in general and Soul Calibur 5 certainly wasn't the game that turned me. The game offers a weak, forgettable story that will do nothing to captivate you. Playing as different characters will change the motivation behind your actions within the story but will do little to nothing to ...  Read the complete review

To join in with the general consensus, this is a great stylish and fun fighting game. There is much to do here for one, the characters are very beautifully rendered and the game works fantastically on the 360. The fights are fun, fast and the computer always provides the right level of challenge so things remain ...  Read the complete review

Soul Caliber used to be one of my favorite games. However, if you're like me, and you bought the last 3, it gets very old, very fast. You see, Soul Caliber is all about just fighting. Thank God they turned it 3D, because it used to really suck in 2D. You can play as many different famous characters, and new characters that they added ...  Read the complete review

This is a great fighting game that has great feature for one player or two player. The Soul Calibur games basically reveolve around the power of the players sword, each player has different swords and attacks and some players have very impressive special attacks. In one player mode you can either play arcade mode ...  Read the complete review

If your looking for a beat-em-up game with something extra, this may tickle your tastebuds. Soulcalibur 4 includes many characters from previous games, and even brings Yoda and Darth Vader into the mix (Darth Vader only available through a download, vice versa on the PS3) With nice visuals and smooth gameplay, it ...  Read the complete review

I am a big fan of the soul caliber series and i must admit i was really hyped about the release of soul caliber 4. I was interested in how they were going to interact star wars into the game and so if i am going to be honest; i did have my doubts. Disappointingly i was correct to have my doubts, because it is just awful, it takes the ...  Read the complete review

I am a massive fan of the SoulCalibur series, going right back to the days when it was Soul Edge, and don't get me wrong the game is pure genius but I just think that this installment has fallen just short of the mark. SoulCalibur was a purely excellent game and I was looking forward to the release of this game for month's, I saw the ...  Read the complete review

I waited months and months to buy this game as Soul Calibur III was a legendary game which for me tops Tekken any day but I have to say though it is a great fighting game Soul Calibur IV has not done quite enough to recieve the full 5 stars. In terms of graphics the game is superb, way above Soul Calibur III. Charcters have ...  Read the complete review

Soul Calibur 4, what can I say, this game is probably the best fighting game on the Xbox 360 after Virtua Fighter 5. It is a beat em up with weapons, with various modes such as story mode, arcade, create a soul (make your own character) and museum mode. If you are familiar with the franchise then you know what is in store, ...  Read the complete review

Fighting games are not common on the Xbox 360-I mean when you've lost exclusive fighters like Tekken and Super Smash Brothers then you are already losing out on fighting games. The again, the games that have been on the system have been pretty good-Dead or Alive 4, Virtua Fighter 5 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (Xbox Live version) have ...  Read the complete review

The Soul Calibur games have been around since 1996 when the game Soul Edge was released in arcades and then on the Playstation. The newest incarnation features Story, Arcade, Training, Museum and Tower of Lost Souls modes. It also features two characters from Star Wars; Yoda, and the brand new character of Darth Vader's ...  Read the complete review

Soul Caliber four is the fourth game in the popular Namco fighting series. This game has all the characters you know and love, and some you wouldn't expect. In this version of the game you can use jedi master Yoda and the apprentice from the force unleashed. In a PlayStation version you can use Darth vader. The ...  Read the complete review
