Soul Calibur IV promo video

I know it's a video and all that...but that did not look like 60fps gameplay to me. They're not going all Soul Blade on us are they? AC6 got chopped to 30fps, but this is a fighter.

What are you, retarded? Ivy started off in the series in dominatrix gear, and continues to go with that style.
Why did you call me retarded? Really. No need for insults.

And I know she's always been like that. But I think the strap is getting smaller @_@

Ya know... That's the second time today you've been vocal/complained about a woman showing too much.

Do you not like ass and tits?

Seriously, those boobs are what's keeping her alive! :D

yeah, i think it's time to change that style. blah.

tira looks great though.
Your post seemed so backwards. Tira doesn't look nowhere near as good as she did before and Ivy's unique costume trait set her apart from the rest.

Meh - whatever.

Soul Calibur 3 was an amazing looking game on the PS2. I have no doubt SC4 will smoke the ass off of Tekken 6 when it's released.

Plus Soul Calibur has jiggling T&A. Why is it a female capoerista in Tekken can't have jiggly bits? WTF WITH YOU NAMCO?!

It has nothing to do with that, and everything to do with the fact that sometimes, game designers need to understand when to reign it in.

Because the Tekken team would prefer people to focus on the game and not how they keep enhancing female character breast sizes?

It's hard to take a game seriously when you constantly see distracting boobs hanging out everywhere.
 
I really don't like the dark models/extreme bloom look in this game.

It's like every model is their own solar eclipse.

You're trying to tell me bouncing b00bs distract you from the gameplay? Lawlz

Problem is SC has always had jiggly bits, and has always been a better game than Tekken.

WHAT NOW MO'FAKAH?!

No it's not fucking time to change that style. Is it time to change Cervantes from a pirate look to a ninja? NO! Is it time to change Siegfried from a Knight to a court jester look? NO! Stop making retarded suggestions people.

Last I heard, 60 fps was a top priority. I'm sure they know the game would be useless without it. I think the video just has a shitty framerate.

calm down, dude. you seem to be taking this a bit too seriously.

and ninja cervantes would be pretty cool.

OKAY DUDE WITH TEKKEN AVATAR PRETENDING TO BE VOICE OF REASON LOLZ! :D

I'm deadly serious. Both series are in decline, but Tekken's height (Tag) was better than SC's height (SC2), and Tekken, even at its trashiest (5.0) wasn't tournament-unfit due to bugs and no arcade playtesting (SC3).

Sorry sir, IMO Tekken will always be The Poor Man's Virtua Fighter.

Quite literally, it started as a poor copy-cat game on shoddy Playstation arcade hardware that was cheaper to play than VF. :P

With VF there's no room for Tekken, so it's acceptable that Namco focuses it's efforts on weapon based fighting games instead.

No I do. But her butt is like falling out. Anyway I'll be quiet about it now :P

SC2 was popular that's it. The series didn't peak at 2 it basically went to crap. The balance namco made in SC was destoryed by various things like an over powering sidestep, G2, easy lenient gi system, and how some characters were over powered. SC3 actually tried to fix most things but namco was dumb and did a console version first instead of doing arcade tweaking for balancing and such then console. SC3AE owns any version of SC2. Think otherwise go ask peeps at guardimpact or soulcalibur who were into SC how they feel the game basically drove some of the best players out it was that crappy. SC2 is SC what CS:S is to CS.

Edit

I'm not touching the subject of Tekken vs SC outside of a few points. Tekken doesn't have full GI system for characters, less mind games all turtling and juggling ftl, no 8wr, throw system is broken and way easier in comparison king ftl, and has a history of over powering characters outside of tekken DR and tag each version has one or two cheese characters.

You do realize that DR is more popular in Japan than VF5, don't you?

Uh, what? Popular = GOOD, wtf is wrong with you? For SC2, all of the big players from SC1 were still around up until around nationals, and then they either stopped or got older (aka life outside of games). Why don't you compare the level of talent from SC2 to SC3, and you'll see that almost NO ONE who was considered among the top tier players for SC2 actually plays SC3 anymore, because the game sucks. So let's break it down.

SC1 - Tiny community, decent players... not too much difference between a "really good player" and a "good player" simply because there just wasn't enough competition.

SC2 - HUGE community, with a world of great players, lots of competition, and so far the only SC game to actually be recognized as a tournament-worthy title.

SC3 - Back to small community with only a handful of top level players. Not even considered for Evolution that year. You know why? THE GAME SUCKED.

Yes, we're not biased.

Tekken does not need Guard Impact (it already has universal low parries), does not need 8wr (why the hell does a close combat fighter need a slowass walk?), and is still more balanced than SC. There's a reason why Tekken is more popular than SC, and that's because it's actually GOOD, where as SC is still the B tier game.
 
I really don't care about bust sizes or what not, but the lighting method used is fucking awful IMO. I think this looks worse in my eyes than most Wii games with the combination of jaggies + bizarro lighting. Not appealing AT ALL.

At least Tekken 6 looks pleasing on the eyes, even if it's no VF5.

Popular doesn't equal good

SC2 lost big players from the west coast and watching wcm become frustated to hell with how bad the the game was because of the nerfing with some characters along with other issues was just painful. Yes I know your into fighters more so that you do chill at sc.com, yet it's nice to see how your painting an issue that clearly was spelled out by the community. SC3 console was a gigantic mis step by namco from the get go no one played because the value in both casual and competitive play stunk up not to mention vc and the fact balance went out the window even more. SC3AE just feels better to me than version of SC2 except D (played through betas was a chicago player since it came out). Both versions were crap for a host of reasons as I've stated at times when this subject comes up. As for the popularity of tekken doesn't take a genius to figure out why it's more popular has everything to do with image and the fact hand to hand is more preferred than sword fighting when you look at the genre.

I thought it was pretty damn good. At least until I heard about Ivy's backstory in IV.

Well you saying there isn't "room" for Tekken because of VF would imply that VF is in some way overshadowing Tekken, correct? I never commented on which game was better, merely pointing out that if any game is on the way out because of over crowding, it would be VF.

You do realize that Tekken and VF play almost NOTHING alike? DOA is much closer to VF than Tekken ever was or will be.

I'm sure you also realize that both Tekken and VF play very different at a high level than at a casual level. Thus, it's unlikely you've played both at a high level and can issue a proper comparison.

Keep mashing though!

you forgot to add that SC is closer to VF than Tekken is to VF!
 
The gameplay teaser trailer is up on the Xbox 360 marketplace.

My only gripe is the lighting around the characters, i hate whatever shiny effects they have around them.

other than that, it looks good.
 
Looks meh, but then again, I've been burned out with the SC series since SCII. I'll probably get it regardless since I play a lot of fighters with my brother.

Looking forward to Tekken 6 a lot more than this.
 
The major pull of the SC series is the usage of weapons. VF is king of bare hands combat (Tekken isn't as good, while DOA is amusing but not ground breaking). Bare hand combat looks a lot more stale than weapons combat. Also, it opens up possibilities of special moves and combo's that one couldn't do without weapons.

they're really overdoing it with the boobs--you'd have be such a nerd to find that hot or awesome in any way.
 
I hate everything that the Soul Calibur series has become. It just gets worse with every installment, and half of the cast need to DIE and be replaced.

And LOL at the guy that thinks Soul Calibur can touch Tekken, not at this point anymore. Tekken 5 and DR left this garbage series in the dust years ago at SC2.

I blow hot glowing gas out of a kangaroo's anus on your comments.

This is a Soul Calibur thread. GTFO.
