  • Narrator : Michael Bisping

  • This guys accent was awesome but it bummed me out becuz i was distracted by it but I dont care

  • bring to dark vader!!!

  • 8.9/10 for me

  • I found this game for 10$ in the bargain bin and I didn't pick it up,despite me loving the previous ones. Why ? because a LOT of fighters are DLC's, not 1 or 2, the majority is. Its a no-no.

  • i miss chronicles of the sword from the third, but its still good game :)

  • I think it would be cool if they made the SC5 story mode in a similar layout to the new mortal kombat

  • thanks for the hint. ill do that:D

  • Soul calibur 4 I probably my favourite fighting game ever, the only complaint I have is how ridiculously over powered kilik is his moves are easy to pull off and the move where he runs and swings high then low is devastating, thus why everyone spams as him online :(

  • All fighting games are the same.

  • kilik is the fucking shit

  • are you British or something?

  • @awesomon Did you really just ask that? XD

  • @BarakObobby LOL well sorry it sounds like he has an accent to me

  • @awesomon Heheh...... I love british accents...... And yeah he does, its extremely noticeable too.

  • is this game any good i haven't played any of the soul caliber games i seen it at FYE for like 17 bucks but i didn't get it cuz i really don't know much about it and not familiar with the characters aside from Vader

  • I didn't dislike Soul Calibur 4. I love the Soul Series, but I truly believe that Soul Calibur 4 is the worst in the series after Soul Calibur Legends. At least to my opinion.

  • Note: the top rated comment about SCV not coming out was made 2 months before it was announced.

  • @fancyshoes002 I wud say th best for beginners is mitsurugi he is an overall good fighter

  • I love Soul Calibur 4 but I have the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 only I have the wii and Soul calibur 2

  • soul caliber best fighting game ever made!!!!!!!!!!!

  • HOLY MOTHERFUCK YOU RATE ALL OF THE GAMES YOU REVIEW 8/10 im cool with that

  • Query: What character is best for beginners?

  • EVERYONE i will hack you a character just PM me you must have skype AND a flash drive all you need to do is ask and i will give you two characters: names are NEW_MOD and CADBURY but CADBURY lags people out of games... lol

  • @jmo7796

    I's expect characters to be cut to bloody pieces if it was mortal kombat on steroids :P

  • I love this game everyone is balanced except 2 characters IMO those being the apprentice and nightmare otherwise tremendous game.

  • The tower of souls is fucking ridiculous. 

  • @Alastertheevilclown

    It's difficult but it's a bit of a challenge that you need devise a strategy to beat

  • @Alastertheevilclown In what way is it ridiculous?

  • What the..? Did he even play this game!?

    The combat is alright, and the character creation is epic as long as you have the patience to collect the armour, but wtf to what he said about the story? 'Short but sweet'? The most story you get in these are 2 lines at most when you beat the last boss plus a backstory that you wont really read. At the end it says something ambiguous like 'no one knows what happened after that' and the middle makes no sense, 'Astiroth is following you for some reason'

  • nice

  • in my opinion this game was not given justice. now dnt get me wrong it is a good game but i feel it was missing those extras tht gave soul calibur 3 its magic. i like the new online feature but thts about all tht really saved it in my opinion. i dnt believe soul calibur 5 is going to be made, however if they do, they need to go back to soul calibur 3 layout because, i think more ppl enjoyed it more tht way, i may sound hateful, but they just took out the features tht made soul calibur for me.

  • @bobfttw don't worry about sounding hateful, you providd legit reasons, such as a popular layout and unlockables. you aren't one of those people who get upset because maybe, um, i don't know, i'll say "the critical finishes don't look awsome"

  • @bobfttw well guess what soul calibur V is being made right now, i hope they actually give it a real story mode this time

  • @bobfttw

    SC5 is being made now LOL

  • @bobfttw

    SC5 is being made now

  • @bobfttw Soulcalibur 5 is on it's way! but....no idea what the realese date is.

  • @darkline64 fall or winter. no specific date tho. at least we dont have to wait so long lol. before the creators said some time between winter and summer xD

  • @bobfttw What features....? That was basically the paragraph-long equivalent of "I don't like this game, SC3 was better." Come, now use specifics. And I may sound hateful, but don't is spelled D-O-N-T

  • @cosmotiggy That was the paragraph long equivalent to I think the game could have been better than what we were given.....if you do make a Soul Calibur 5 make include those features such as Character profile, wall paper, faster pace playing and stages for every character ( if you want specifics ). I don't dislike Soul Calibur 4 but it just seemed a bit plainer IMO.

  • Comment removed

  • @bobfttw Soul Calibur 5 has been confirmed for a while now....

    /watch?v=Au4i6w5grp4

  • @bobfttw True, Soulcalibur 3 was 'lot more fun that Soulcalibur 4. I think.. there was this kind off game mode that you could level your character in and had to take over bases and last the enemy's castle. I found that so fun to play! But now i fucken broke soul calibur 3 so cant play it anymore, still have soul calibur 4 though, but just dont like it the same i did with soulcalibur 3..

  • @bobfttw I agree. The fact that they linked your character stats to the clothes they were wearing in character creation definately detracted from the game. I also miss Chronicle's of the Sword. That was an awesome story mode, compared to the generic one they put into this. I liked the last one better.

  • @bobfttw Ahhh but there is a soul calibur 5 coming out :D

  • Yoda's impossible to grab, litteraly, and I'm a grap whore so I dislike fighting against him, but nobody really likes him it seams so thats not usually a problem. I don't know why people don't like him either, personally I quite enjoy it, I like playing with other characters more, but I don't dislike fighting as him.

  • I can certainly sympathize considering that I played online and have been beaten horribly on numerous occassions.

  • @jmo7796 more like Ritalin

  • I don't really like the stories. They don't have as much depth to them as they did in Soul Calibur 3 D:

    But I do love the game c:

  • I love his acent hahaha <3

  • i love this game, but the only thing that disappointed me wuz no team battle.

  • LOL! TEKKEN! Nina Williams WINS!

  • Does this suck like soul calibur 3 or is it good like soul calibur 2? SC2 was nearly perfect when it came to consistancy and timing etc, whereas 3 I felt was sluggish and inconsistant (especially with sidestepping and impacts.)and well, pretty much rubbish for folks who like to master fighting games; more aligned to button mashers and folks who like the hoaky build your own character thing... . Did they tighten up the combat is my question essentially.?

  • @xUbastardx I didn't like it. You had 2 short attacks. And some of the moves and combos are just ridiculusly hard to pull off. Personally, I like sc2 and sc1.

  • I just got this game for the ps3! It is way fun! I unlocked a lot of characters already!

  • @GZilla591 is it anything like MK? are just like tekken fighting style

  • @igotTHEcookies Tekken and MK mixed together to make one awesome game!

  • I love this game!

    But fuck xbox 360 with that rrod!

    Why they don't make a pc version (assholes)!

  • how could you review a game you haven't played? You should play the 360 version first.

  • I disagree. This game was really disappointing. Unless you're an item collector, and REALLY want to get al the armor pices, and wepons, after only 2 weeks you may get bored of this game. Because the online gaming just NOT fills the emptiness that left the "Chronicles of the Sword" mode, and the epic adverture the story mode was in SCIII.

  • am i the only one who would have replaced the star wars characters with FFXIII characters like sazh and fang?

  • @sorahearts325 That won't have been a great difference. The big problem with this game was that they screw up the story mode, and to remove the Chronicles of the Souls game style.

  • i suck at these types of fighting games. i dont know why. i just suck.

  • @PinkyBeany you're not the only one,i can't even finish street fighter 4 on ultra easy....(there's ultra easy,super easy,easy...) :D

  • Your accent is so good, I'll have to give you a PRRRROMOTION!!

  • This game bored the soul out of the game. Very short and the challenges on towers was nearly impossible at times, frustated most of the time. I love how they talk about the looks and visuals but the gameplay was trashed a little and star wars... Cmon, the apprentice was harder to kill than the final boss. Soul blade and sc3 will always be m favs

  • i thought it was a joke voice

  • I've played the 3rd, but not this, and it looks better in my opinion. Except for the star wars thing :/ so... Vader is in ps3 and yoda on 360? Why not just have both, on both?

  • @FortSkillz you can get Darthvader on 360 but you have to buy him off the Xbox live marketplace

  • What... accent is that?

  • so that tower mode is like chronicles of sword in soul cal 3? because if 4 dosent have mode like swords cronichles im not getting it

  • @tornadexx It's nowt like Chronicles of the Sword unfortunately. Apparently loads of people hated that game mode even though I found it the most fun. Hope they bring it back for SC5.

  • oh if you guys like this guys accent well yeah it's pretty cool aye, i remember this guys accent of Gamer tv, it's a guy who talks abot video games and it's like my fave program , but it aint on any more and the program was so awesome! and im pretty sure this is the guy doing the talking off gamer tv

  • I like the soul calibur 4 game.. i just started playin like 2 hours ago on our 360 and i'm addicited.. but unfortunatly i'm gonna have to hold off on the xbox live cause i suck @ playin lol but i'm sure wit practice i'll get better... btw i love this giys accent :)

  • FARK I want this!!!!

  • He sounds like Mr.Maker! The kids show!

  • I wanted to buy this game before i got dissapointed. SC4 lack several aditional  gameplay modes from SC3.

  • @komek i know iwas so dissaointed it's just not the same game anymore and the story has gone to hell as well

  • I appreciate that you say you liked the game and it was fun but you didn't go ITS PERFECT 11/10 >:OOOO

    A very straight forward review minus the bullsh*t ^_^

  • @shafferpurr Agreed, 101% agreed.

  • @JakeWilsonINFLAMES agreed

    

  • @3geekdee101 play 3 it is GODLY....not kidding im still playing it

  • game looks like shit. sticking with gears 2

  • There is sooooo much lag online!

  • IME GITING IT

  • @dpattiris

    thanks for that picture.

  • How you supposed to break off ivy's armour?

  • @Plasmapyro17 a toothpick.

  • nice accent )))

  • thx for a great vid! how do you save the game onto the HDD? can this be done with all ps3 games?

  • This game was my first contact with the Soul Calibur franchise.

    I bought the other ones after playing part IV for some time and have to say... except for the grapics, Soul Calibur IV is the worst in the line

  • This game gave me carpal tunnel...

  • my favourite game

  • lol

  • might get this for 8 quid haha is it still really active on multiplayer? really wanna know, cheers

  • @TopmanSte Yeah, the multiplayer community is still really active. I'd say there are atleast 1000 people online at any given time.

  • The reviewer is so british that he sounds like he's making satire of british ppl! :D

  • This is the only good game for the XBOX 360.

    

  • @pokefreak001 Maybe the only good game YOU personally have... but definitely not the only good game on the 360.

  • @ssbrosking36 well cod sucks its bboring halo is the same friken thing and all the obscure games are boring. this is the only game i had fun with.and im not wasting my money on a 360, i dont have one.

  • This should have had Tales of Souls like SC3 SO YOU CAN choose your path and has about 25 stages only takes a half an hour NOT 10 MINUTES like this game.

  • omg.......No where near as good as SC3 in comparison...

  • @arcticshade1 why?

  • @lakonim um, 4=Very short story(5 lvls), they ruined the stories by adding algol.All the bonus characters are just remakes of certain characters, Tower of lost souls doesnt compare to Chronicles of the sword, and tower of lost souls is just not that great, and the character creation while better with the stats, using the same character weapons isnt that good compared to the custom classes from 3.and not as many features...

  • @arcticshade1 hmm... what exactly is tower of lost souls?

  • @lakonim it has beeen a whbile since i played, but the tower thing where you can go up or down....

  • bet your shite... vf is awsomefull btw

  • dammit, why'd they have to give Talim a stupid hat, she's always been my favorite character and then they go and make her look stupid

  • i got extremely bored of this game.. Bored of tower of souls after 20 levels... Story mode sucks and online play wasn't very interesting. Boy i wish they kept 'chronicles of the sword' from soul calibur 3.... that was what made the game entertaining for me.

  • i love soul calibur is good game

  • pretty graphics but they fucked up the parry and guard cancel in this game they are completely useless and then how easy it is for button mashers to get in this game is too much....and the star wars people were not necessary to storyline..

  • first thing that rolled through my mind was, wow, wat a steriotypical voice :)

  • osm game, smexy chars and Love the gameplay......

  • You do know that Soul Calibur is a game that has remained virtually unchanged from its 1990s arcade game, right?

    You're probably a little 10 year old kid that doesn't have the patience to learn how to play the game correctly so you simply mash buttons, lose, and call the game gay. I actually find its ability to stay the same (gameplay-wise) but still be so captivating and fun to play.

  • @7677876 no fag im 18 and i rather play tekken 6 then play that repetative ass game

  • For newbies it's "the same", but for people that actually took the time to learn the game, the engine is vastly different and much had been added to the game since the first one.

  • como mierda hizo eso con la Ivy!!!!

  • i love gamesweasel it makes me laugh

    plus game :)

  • bessssss

  • beautiful game grapihcally....as a game its full of terrible voice overs, limited char selection as opposed to previous version, horrible single player. And for a fighting game just doesn't have alot of depth.

  • You have no idea what depth is, much less the ability to actually critique a fighting game properly. Please actually learn about the game before bashing it for the "depth" you have no clue on.

  • Compared to SC III's character creation, SC IV's is really limited. In SC III, you could could have more than one upper or lower clothing on, like say...a brasserie, a shirt, and a quiver. But you can't do that in SC IV. The extra weapons like the kunai weren't kept, either.

  • this is soo Better then SF4. im sorry SF4 fan its a fact. i had both but then when i had this it just blew me away.

  • that shit looks sick, more sick than street fighter 4 and tekken 6

  • NICE GAME !!!!!

  • its like a way better ssbb

  • ssbb on steroids

  • GREATEST ACCENT EVER!!!!!!!!!

  • i agree darthsasuke554, his accent is cool.

  • nope,just search thebloodofgoodman.

  • @darthsasuke554-too much emphasis on my opinion

  • @darthsasuke554 It's called an "English" accent...

  • @darthsasuke554 hell yeah

  • @darthsasuke554 yeah hehe it's hard to focus on the video since his accent is so strong :p

  • @darthsasuke554 Not just awsome pure EPIC!!!

  • should i get this or tekken 6?

  • this

  • Soul Calubur IV

    I have Tekken 6, and I love it. But Soulcalibur has less mistakes, glitches, and Repetive attitude.

    And more fun story and customization!!!

  • can soulcalibur compare with virtual fighter,street fighter,tekken and dead or alive

  • yeah

  • yes it can. But Virtua Fighter is out of the game now. Not a single good Virtua Fighter game has been released since Sega Saturn.

  • I played the demo and thought is was cool but I don't really remember. I remember though that the combat in this game was slower than Soul Calibur 3 and I thought that 3 had better combat because it was a lot faster.

  • Comment removed

  • you skip those long ass cut scenes

  • what game have you gave a 10/10

    you even said metal gear solid 4 a 9/10

  • thats because no game is perfect,like metal gear has incredibly long cutscenes, fallout 3:takes a long time to travel

  • is soul caliber like smash brothers, where lots of different characters from different games?

  • kind of but not really they made there own characters the only characters that are from other games and stuff are the apprentice from star wars and yoda and darth vader

  • lol, 12 year old n00b.

  • Im not very impressed by the game

  • Matt wat the bloody hell is wrong with u, that comment about virtua fighter, its a game for deep, rewarding fighting, ur mental inability doesnt take away from that, ur a casual gamer pretending to know more than he really does

  • wat i dont like about it is the story mode ( too repetitive), the rest is fine.

  • When i play these kind of games i just hit all the buttons all on my controller lol.

  • same lol

  • lmao same here its so hard to do those moves i mean why the fuck do they tell u how to do the moves by like this LK+HK WHY DONT THEY SHOW LIKE X AND Y OR SOMETHING

  • call me crazy (or something worse lol) but i hate games like this. u just button mash.

  • they should realy tel us the price

  • this game is 16+ in norway

  • You are not Yahtzee!!!

    Zero Punctuation FTW!!!!!!!!!

  • what is this game rated

  • does this game have trophies?

  • Soulcalibur 4 Is a great game. But it also makes me want to play Soulcalibur 3 again.

  • which is better

  • I'll be getting 3 again for my birthday so I'll decide then.

  • your voice is pretty sweet, but it didnt distract me during the review. i really want to get this game, but i dont have xbox live. i might get both soon, and soul calibur looks like a fun game online and offline

  • I love this game but there are 3 things that really piss me off.

    1) The story mode along with the endings, they're no worthy and the endings are really bad.

    2) No more team battle, I love team battle back there in SC2

    3) The fact of beating the "unknown conditions" to get the articles for custom character in the tower of Soul is anoying, it will take you a lot of time before you could work the character you really want :(

    All the rest is great. :D

    Give it a 8.5 out of 10

  • Soul Calibur is awesome I still have the first one for the dreamcast

  • I still have Soul Calibur 2 on the gamecube  Link ftw XD

  • i got it its preety easy i beat it on normal and hard. i like multiplayer. not live because theres 2 many nerds. i still dont know how to do he critical special attack thing yet. i recomend it

  • if your playing the latest version(after updates) it is really rare(almost impossible) to be able to use it in a real battle since the rate at which de soul gauge decreases now is really slow...

    but for you to use the critical finish you must press all the four buttons at once when you see a RED guard break, the RED guard break only occurus if the opponentes soul gauge is red and blinking, if you hit him with any attack after the RED guard break the chance is lost... try it in the pratice mode!

  • omg u have the coolest accent

  • lol as if george lucas hasnt got enough money ^^
