Retro_Link Posted July 31, 2008 Author Posted July 31, 2008 and some guy half enthusiatically says... Soul Calibur... IV... Yeah I heard that in the IGN review, it's a rubbish mood setter, as there's no epic feel to it... Put some effort into it!
Jimbob Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Apparently they had a limited amount of them :-/ Fair enough then, but i think the site didn't mention limited availabilty of extras, so expect a few people to complain. Just gotta wait until i get home to see if it has been delivered or not today.
Gizmo Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Wow. Namco really don't get this whole DLC thing. Soul Calibur on XBLA is 800 points. The SC music pack for SC4 is 1200 points. Wtf is that?
Owen Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 hmmm I'm perhaps glad I had to cancel my preorder because of lack of money! See how things balance out after people have played it for a while. I've had to cancel my preorder due to lack of funds and all the games i want in october/november as well! I have SC2..so i play that for my fighting fix!
khilafah Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Anyone know of any main street stores that selling this today or does not happen?
Guest Jordan Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 No. Games come out on Friday unless its a major release.
McPhee Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Just got this from town today. Local indie stores FTW! The bloke's taken down my mobile number and a list of games i want over the coming months, i'll now get a text when they come is stock so i can pick em up before release day Only exception is stuff like GTAIV, where there's a huge legal threat hanging over release.
Guest Jordan Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 I just got an email from Game, they say they are sending out all limited edition box things tonight and you should get them tomorrow.
Jimbob Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 I just got an email from Game, they say they are sending out all limited edition box things tonight and you should get them tomorrow. I got the same email as well, lovely jubbley. Still, got the game now and going to get some practice in before going online over the weekend.
UziT Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 I got the same email as well, lovely jubbley. Still, got the game now and going to get some practice in before going online over the weekend. Same I got the same e-mail and I will be getting practice in before going online over the weekend! :P
Jimbob Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 First impressions of the game Amazing sound to the game, awesome graphics and Yoda's quotes are quite humorous as well. I think i need more practice as the Apprentice is powerful and hardly gives you a chance at times. Still with that said, I'm very impressed with the game so far.

Cube Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 ...But is there a nice, long single player mode? It was mentioned above: Just finished the games story mode with Yoda... in 15 minutes :/ because in the first few stages you fight lots of characters there are only 5 stages! in Normal mode at least, Yoda is... ok... he didn't feel overpowered so much as cheap, he's the ideal noob character basically
Gizmo Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 The story mode sections are abou 15mins per character, there is the Tower Of Lost Souls stuff I haven't tried yet, and of course an Arcade mode.

Daft Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Can someone please tell me they kept the option for Japanese voices.
Guest Jordan Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Audio settings... obviously. But you'll lose Yoda's awesome English voice in the process. EDIT: Read the question wrong, yes they did keep the Japanese voices... but like i said Yoda's English voice is bad ass and you'll get the shitty Japanese one.
S.C.G Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 ^^^ they did, if your pondering over getting it or not, I'd say just get it, while it doesn't have the impact of SCII it's still the same enjoyable experience with a decent amount of depth that will last you a good while.
Guest Jordan Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Its enjoyable... but god damn they really nerfed some of the characters, not to mention theres alot of blocking issues. Also, Yoda is completely shit.

EDIT: Read the question wrong, yes they did keep the Japanese voices... but like i said Yoda's English voice is bad ass and you'll get the shitty Japanese one. I'm going to get the PS3 version anyway....I wonder what Vader souunds like in nihongo... I was worried for a second because I heard Mitsurugi's English voice over on the gamestrailer thing and it sounded horrible.
Guest Jordan Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Mitsurugi sucks in SC4... none of his great attack moves from SC2 are even useful anymore
Daft Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Mitsurugi sucks in SC4... none of his great attach moves from SC2 are even useful anymore As a diehard Mitsurugi fan.....I'm just going to try and ignore that comment. *runs off and cries* I was annoyed enough when they changed his move set from 1...although I should have expected it.
flameboy Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Its enjoyable... but god damn they really nerfed some of the characters, not to mention theres alot of blocking issues. Also, Yoda is completely shit. You see the nerfing of characters in such a finely balanced fighter does concern me... Mitsurugi sucks in SC4... none of his great attack moves from SC2 are even useful anymore WOT?!!! That sucks big time.... What's my second character Maxi like then?!
S.C.G Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Just to add to the list of negatives, the online is shit against random players, full of one-button spammers and general fucktards, but then you knew that allready. :wink: Seriously though it completely takes the fun out of it, until you pwn one of the little sods that is.
UziT Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Anyone get the Collectors stuff from GAME? Also how do you pull off a critical strike? :P
