Soul Calibur V

This game is absolutely remarkable. The Project Soul team has done an amazing job once again.

Project Soul has created a beautiful story mode filled with 20 whole episodes, introducing many new characters which are the spawns of their ‘parents’ or likenesses. The story mode introduces two characters fully however; Patrokolas and Pyrrha. The son and daughter of Sophita have now been chosen to wield the Spirit Swords, Soul Calibur and Sword Edge.

The Story line is beautiful, and so are the remarkable environments that help tell the story and also set the mood.

The character visuals however- are still as beautiful as ever. The designs are very fresh and new, and always feel oh-so snazzy. The glowing details and wrinkles of the clothing is very eye-catching and vibrant. The voice actors do an amazingly good job of putting more personality into the characters as well; for example…Tira is no longer very high pitched, but you can just feel how manipulative and evil she is even more so now.

The game art will always be amazing- and the character creation will only get better. The creation mode is so very complex now, and allows for so much more freedom and creativity. The clothing sections are divided up even more now, allowing for more layering and more unique looks. For an even more unique look- you can change the colors, sure, but you can also place PATTERNS on an article of clothing! Not only that, but you can PLACE STICKERS TOO. You can also create markings on your original character’s face with FACE PAINTS. You can change the colors of the face paints, stickers, AND patterns to create a spectacular(or completely ridiculous character of pop culture reference)!Height and ‘weight’ is also able to be manipulated, so that ridiculously fat cheeseburger endorsing clown you’ve always wanted to make in previous Soul Calibur games- IS NOW POSSIBLE. Isn’t that exciting? To be able to create a very unique character..and beat the stuffing out of people online(or get beaten yourself)?

Now, for the combat. The Combat..its just so very..wonderful. The combos of course, now vary upon your characters height and build- for example, your power may decrease, but your speed and reach may be better as a tall fighter, than the preferred short fighter for a specific style. So this will make you have to master the game even more, for some combos may not be exactly how you may want them to be- Which can be a bit of a downside if you are planning to be an Oompa-Loompa toting nun-chucks(Fighting style: Maxi), because that particular fighting style suggests you to be the tallest you can be on that game. The combat is fluid and exciting- but what I hate most of it… Is the Brave Edge fighting system. Quite frankly, I thought the Critical Edge was very entertaining to watch, and very hard to achieve.. so once it was achieved, you would DEFINITELY feel proud of yourself.

Now I forgot to mention- the improvement of the ITEMS that the characters can wear in the game. They REALLY REALLY move with the character this time. SO. MUCH. MOVEMENT. Its beautiful in my eyes.

————

Now for some of the pure cons that many of the hardcore Soul Cal. Fans may find to be quite dissapointing.

We lost a few characters.

Talim and Zasalamel.

The Story mode no longer allows you to go and choose a character’s path to follow-you only follow TWO of the TWENTY EIGHT characters stories.

That Critical Edge system is now gone, and has been replaced by three different battle techniques that are almost near impossible to even activate unless you become an instant wiz when you insert the disc and touch the controller.

————-

Overall..I give this game….4/5 Coke bottles.

Chelnov: Atomic Runner / 1988 / Data East / Data East MC68000 Hardware

a killer, largely forgotten arcade title with an absolutely incredible Genesis port / upgrade that will cost you next to nothing. pick this one up! Data East will forever be the king of “B movie” equivalent video games. they aren’t going to technically blow your mind, but you’re gonna love the cheese and fun factor.
