Soulcalibur has always been a flashier, more graceful and grander game than your average brawler. It's still very much about bringing all manner of pain to your opponents, but it's also about looking good whilst doing so.

SC4 features a mix of single player modes and online play to keep players busy. Like all fighting games; there is typically an arcade mode where you need to battle through 8 rounds of increasing difficulty.

The meatiest impacts in games; Outfits bordering on the illegal; Beautifully balanced fighting

Slightly disappointing roster; No creation-based fighting styles; Star Wars fighters out of place

It's the herald of a new generation. The big name fighting game is back. As good as Virtua Fighter was, and as much as everyone is looking forward to Live Arcade's HD Remix, Soul Calibur is still very definitely The People's Fighter.
