Gonna do the same, but for iPad. Glad it's universal.
Gotta admit though, it looks kinda crappy.

Wtf that looks absolutly terrible. Why people would waste money on this garbage is beyond me. I can think of a better ways to waste my time that don't involve mashing full screen supers with horrendous controls.

Pretty much - regardless of how good or bad the port is, it's hard to say no to a price like that.
Meanwhile, Namco Bandai thinks $12 is a great deal for the first Soul Calibur - and multiplayer wasn't even ready when it launched.

been a fuck long while since I played this, but wasn't MvC2 a 6 button game?
I guess that wouldn't make sense for virtual controls

Maybe it's because I never played mvc2 at a competitive level, but this looks freaking awesome. Looks like it runs just fine, and the controls seem great, as well. The guy playing the game obviously doesn't understand them, though. I can't wait for this.

There appears to be an optional 6 button mode to mirror the arcade version.

You guys are nuts, this looks great for a $3 iOS game.
I feel like the people who are disappointed thought that this port would magically work well with a touch screen, and somehow be comparable to playing with an arcade stick. You guys need to get real - this is a game designed for precise arcade stick control feedback that's being ported to a touch screen phone. For what it is, it looks incredible. Anyone expecting more simply has a poor grip of realistic iOS gameplay.

They should setup some tournaments for this just for shits and giggles.

Going by the videos I saw, it says universal, so hopefully they're right lol.
Volt never got an iPad version.. Pretty sad.

Volt needs to go iPad. I'm still considering an iCade but there just isn't enough content right now. If this, Volt and Capcom Classics went iPad and were iCade compatible I'd jump on one.

For sure, that would be awesome.

Looks like it's a 147MB download and 216.2 when installed. Good stuff.
Who cares? You're not supposed to "play" this game, just "dick around".

So the TA forums kinda confirm about 30fps even on the newest hardwares.
fuck.
fuck.
The Elite

Just 4S or 4 too?
At least my new iPad should be fine. I'll take 30fps on a mobile phone without issue.
By "dick around" you mean launch the app, struggle with the controls for 2 minutes and then never open it again? If that's what you meant, then I don't consider that to be fun in any way.
Instead of playing to the strengths of the hardware, most big publishers keep releasing stuff that plays terrible with touch screens.
It would be nice if Capcom put some effort into their iOS games and released something like a touch RPG game, or a point and click adventure.

yeah. people say it's fine on 4
So all characters are locked..... don't tell me there's dlc for the characters.

Looks like crap. Don't support capcom's lazy porting efforts guys! Vote with your virtual wallets!
But yea, that framerate.

looks like the dreamcast port meaning you got to unlock all the chars
I'd believe you if this was 10 years ago... but the way capcom loves DLC... i don't know.

Well therein lies the problem. They don't want to put in effort, lol.
Quick port = easy money.
Well, to be fair, Soul Calibur is at least a competent port with excellent 60 fps visuals that sacrifice nothing. It looks sharper than the original by a long shot and runs flawlessly.
If they added iCade support it would actually be a fantastic rendition of the game competitive with any other version of Soul Calibur.
This, on the other hand, is an abomination in which the low price makes sense. It's a lousy port with severe visual errors and a low framerate.

And this couldn't have been on the button friendly 3DS/Vita store becaaausee...?
This, like many other iPhone games, is simply a novelty to have. It's so you can go to your friend.
"Hey man, this thing plays MVC2!!"

You had to unlock them in arcade and the early home ports, the PSN/XBLA ports had them all unlocked.
Come on man.

I'm not sure what you mean.
The PSN version is a proper version of the game. The iOS version, on the other hand, is not.
You win?
Still wouldn't put it past them. IOS is the king of paid unlocks.. and tons of casuals that wouldn't give a shit.

Capcom should make a mini-moba, or something rpg-lite, with cartoony versions of all their characaters (think samurai shodown rpg kinda, or sprites looking like gem fighter).
Something to take advantage and built for touch controls.

It's just getting really silly that any game released these days that may have any unlockable content whatsoever is met with DLC bemoaning.
"You mean I only have one Pokemon at the start of the game?? Looks like paid DLC coming soon to me!"

well I dont mean to iOS obviously, just full-stop. Who wanted this? No-one. Meanwhile Ace Attorney fans and the MonHun hardcore either have to turn to unofficial fan translations and more to play already finished products just needing translation work.

Did Wario64 really get banned or is he on some kind of DrinkyCrow tag?
No, it isn't.

Good god this looks stiff as hell.
offtopic: OP got banned for real or its just master-trolling? D:
