Soul Calibur IV

"All of this combines to form one of the most enjoyable fighting games in history, a punishing romp through the ages where swords and souls collide. Sure, it has flaws, but Soulcalibur IV's thrilling fights, competitive online mode and bounty of extras thrusts it to the very top of our must play list. No matter which version you choose, your soul still burns."

"No matter how you slice it, Soulcalibur IV is a great game--even for those who don't consider themselves hardcore fans of the fighting genre."

Soulcalibur returns with the same deep fighting system and a new online mode that makes it an easy game to recommend.

"SoulCalibur IV is a great example of an extremely polished game that's really good but still falls short of the superior experience that it so easily could have been instead. "

"Soulcalibur IV is a great game -- especially if you've been following and enjoying the series for the past few years. There are over 30 characters to try out (granted, some of them are clones of each other), several gorgeous stages to battle in and enough special moves to keep you memorizing commands for months."
