  • It's been a lot of years since me and my little brother played this game together in our room... But man does that intro still rock serious balls.

  • Classic

  • I mean 14 years lol

  • 16 years later... And this intro still gets me..

  • YOUR THE BEST AROUND

  • SOUVENIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­R !!!! :)

  • I still think this game easily had the best endings.....Compared to the other Soul Caliburs.

  • Still gives me the chills, even after 15 years ^-^

  • This was good. When sophitia's bathing and that statue rises, her model is in sciv quality.

  • God this was amazing back in the day. I used to go with mates and play in the arcade every Saturday. It still has one of the best intros. As others have said its seems that the series just doesn't have what it used to. Heres hoping they can re kindle the flame with the imminent release of 5.

  • this was one intro i didn't press start so i can always see it to the end

  • Memory open, childhood everywhere.

  • its all about that awesomely cheesy music.

  • cervantesssssssssssss

  • Awe memories lol

  • Well gee, some of the characters look famila-WAIT, I passed up a chance to play the first on then?

    I feel fucking miserable now.

  • @Dayntei its understandable if you were too young or werent intrested at the time, but those of us who grew up on SCB and SC, its a bitter pill to swallow the..changes that have taken hold of the series in recent years.

  • 1:50 best part love this game

  • what a huge fucking joke this series has become. the original soul blade is arguably the greatest fighting game ever, and look at the new additions. fucking star wars characters? is this a fucking joke?

    the stupid dickheads who first made this game have now ruined a classic. fuckers.

  • @mmLeftovers It's all money in the end, the star wars characters were just major appeal for new audiences. It's a shame but hey, thats the industry.

  • @LOLGONK unfortunately what you're saying is completely true. it's just a shame that they sold themselves short with adding those star wars characters.

  • this song !!!

  • legend

  • old times..

  • Taki <3

  • this is best intro than sc3 intro is 2nd best intro

  • Oh how I loved this game...

  • I used to skip the bit with Cervantes tearing his face off. I was a timid seven year old. ;)

  • I just can't help but feel the sequels pale in comparison. I don't need the other games. All I need is this. Forever a memory deeply entrenched into my childhood that made it special. All of these years later and it still has not gotten old.

  • Epic

  • nah, Soul Calibur 1 is the best.But this is my 2nd favourite.

  • li long and hwang were way better than maxi and yun seung

  • back when Cervantes was the boss! he better boss than Nightmare 4sho

  • This was the best into in the series

  • I love this game! This, Tenchu Stealth Assassains,Tekken and GTA were the first games I bought when I first bought my Play Station.Ahhh...the good ole days!!

  • @PumaDown this, tekken 3, parapa the rapper, gta 3, crash bandicoot and tenchu ftw!

  • I hope they use this intro song in the new Soul Calibur that comes out late this month.

  • I love seeing everyone in here.And then you see them in soul calibur 4 and they all ugly -.-

  • Manly tears are shed every time i see this intro.

  • What's that symbol at the start? It turns up in SCIII as well, in Olcadan's Stage

  • MYTHIC INTRO (l)

  • Alguem mais ta aqui por causa do 99vidas?

  • this was before all the girl characters cup size went from being a B cup to a DD cup

  • Li Long vs Li Long... Fight!

  • So many good memories!!!

  • This was my first game to the series and I fell in love with the story and characters. I don't care what anyone else says. Soul Edge / Blade is the original and best of the entire series.

  • @ajshim My nephew just picked up Soul Caliber 4 in the bargain bin for the 360 and it's terrible. The story mode is almost non existent compared to soul Blade and the whole graphics package is worse IMO. It may be more shiny and rounded, but the levels and characters were much better in the original.

  • @82nickbrad Soul Blade was literally AMAZING. I also thought that SC, SC2 and SC3 were also AMAZING, but I hated SC4 for many reasons, mainly because I though that putting Star Wars characters in the game was wrong. Now Namco have seem to have destroyed the series further by setting SC5 17 years later which means that my favourite female characters such as Taki, Sophitia, Seung Mina and Xianghua will not appear in that game as they will now be too middle aged to be in it now.

  • @7039TS As you say, they killed it off by adding Star Wars characters to the game, how the plot can be taken seriously is beyond me, i shalln't even take a cursory look at SC5.

  • 600 k views <3

  • Awesome intro all the soul games rock except soul calibur III that shit sucked. Soul calibur II was the best in the series.

  • Best intro ever! Wanna play THIS game, although it has several successors! This is how to make a game intro! Tekken 2 has also a decent one! These were Namco's golden years!

  • I remember when videogames intro where over 9000

  • 0:20 That animation is wicked! I wish I could do that

  • I used to play this game until I took an arrow to the knee.

  • @boredknightforever the arrow in the knee is sooooooooo last week.

  • @KisaragiAerith

    The meme was so last week until it took an arrow to the knee.

  • i played it for takkys titts

  • I remember being late for school playing this game! Lol yes back in those days it was all about Seung Mina! I miss this game I have many happy memories playing this game. 

  • @ORTheStory I had a crush on Seung Mina, I totally know what you mean brother!!!

  • Even though my favorite is still Soul Calibur III, this game still kicks ass. I remember playing the arcade version at Gattyland.

  • Good scripting, good art direction and good bgm. Shame it gets rehashed so much.

  • This game was awesome. (Though I will say, I am partial to Soul Calibur)

    Soul Calibur (I)'s charm to me was precisely how it tied with this... And I am quite upset the series has departed from this game so much.

  • why is Bangoo naked at 0:58?

  • fuck i had a demo when i was a kid and all i could it watching this clip again and again.

  • loved this game soo much

  • One of the best intro's ever.

  • great game unless each holder of psx played in her

  • Sour Calibur I-IV don't have climate - Soul Edge rulez

  • was that the 1st soul caliber game because idk?

  • i don't even have this game, but it's still my one of my favorite videogame intros

  • i know this is kind of cheating, but they should reuse this theme in the next soul calibur... but in order to use this theme, the game will have to be THE soul calibur ultimate fighting game.

  • I hate how the series has gotten increasingly convulted and gay over the the past couple of decades.

  • Never skipping intro

  • They really need to do an "HD" re-release of the first three games.

  • Poseidon is a pervert.

  • i love this game i used to spend hours on the play station playing it

  • Greatist intro ever simple yet catchy

  • all those weeks standing in front of dixon's shop window were totally worth every second of this game

  • Why is this better than modern most game openings today?

    Oh, because the characters have backstory, and it's not concentrating on SUPER ULTRA ADVANCED CGI ACTION SCENES...

  • @Gaaralver2damax what are you talking about, back then that was SUPER ULTRA ADVANCED CGI ACTION SCENES... doesn't stop it from being awesome, just saying

  • @Gaaralver2damax that and the fact that it isnt in first person and involves guns

  • @PWNProductionsSE Ikr? I bought a Naruto Ultimate Ninja game expecting it to be a traditional high quality and passionate fighting game. So why does the camera not even follow me ACROSS THE SCREEN WHERE I CAN'T EVEN SEE MYSELF. I thought I bought a fighting game, not a first-person shooter.

  • This honestly still blows my mind O_O

  • @Actraiser1 ahaha heard that mane

    

  • @Actraiser1 Fuck yeah !

  • The nostalgia this gives me is huge T-T

    I remember the demo disk that came with my original Playstation had this great intro. I couldn't help but to eventually buy the game without knowing anything about checking reviews etc, being a pretty young noob living in a country that didn't even have an internet access lol.

    I loved this game to maximum and I wish they bring it back on PSN.

  • I miss you Li Long and Siegfried? you look gay now

  • 2:03 that ship is fucking badass

  • I love the Sofia's part :D

  • This is what i play in my Childhood,now Namco made a Shit out of this great Game

    R.I.P Soul Blade

  • This is why I put this on my PSP. Best Soul Calibur game of the series in my opinion.

  • Brings back memories ^^

  • @enclaw Know excectly what u mean ;)

  • lol this made my hairs stand on end watching this havnt seen it in years!

  • I can't believe 2 games from the same company (Namco) and year (1996) have the best intros I know in gaming. I mean Tekken 2 and Soul Blade (Edge). Especially when the intros by Namco are usually pretty awful in general, apart from these two masterpieces!

  • amazing intro!

  • I love the intro of the song

  • boże, moja gra z dzieciństwa ! <3 ;D

  • the first ever great videogame intro no more comment lol

  • the earlier soulcalibur games were the best, but soulcalibur iv is a disaster. they're lots of list of awesome games on he psx, and all i have to say is rip psx

  • I got goosebumps before I even played the video

  • I remember playing this with my dad as a kid.

  • @vjjpunisher same here XD

  • @vjjpunisher Exactly the same, my dad use to play with the guy with the Nun Chucks all the time

  • @vjjpunisher Oh me too man. I still say I'm better than him. Li Long 4 life.

  • all the other soul calibur games lack the same atmosphere and great plot of this legendary game!

  • I like to watch this and forget that they started throwing in random characters from Nintendo, Todd McFarlane, and Star Wars.

  • Best Namco game and best Namco opening ever made.

  • Still the best game in the series! 

  • @94mav98 this is better than souicalibur 4 :) serious... the stories of soulcalibur IV was shit and short, stupid story modes :/

  • this is great! i played this game over and over, until my head hurt from all the colors...

  • @Bath29 Im playing this rite now (original PSX disc) on my PS3 Slim. I got 14 of 15 characters and i got all weapons for 4 of 10 characters in Edge Master Mode. This game still the shit and still tough and fun.

  • i was watching this amazeing video and i was surprised so see ghostrider at the very end of it, as i didnt know he had a ship aswell as a moterbike lol

  • I have this game yet.. I really love it I part from my Sc collection and I´ll get SC V too

  • i miss this game.

  • They had such advanced water, explosion and smoke physics, yet couldn't make some believable human models?

  • It's not the awesome introduction, sweet characters and excellent story lines that makes this game so awesome. No the real reason why this is one best game ever is cause it has its own kick ass theme song! 

  • Show me one intro of newly released videogames, that can compare to these old psx games like Soul Blade.

  • I remember playing this game in the arcade, then buying the psx one. The intro along gets you hyped up to play from the very beginning!

  • Its fucking GREAT!!!!!

    The best intro of all parts of this game!!!!!

    One of the greatest intros ever!!!!!

    Can't believe what this game was at good old PS1

    I respect this part of game. Original. It still the best.

    This game rules!!!

  • C'etait le bon temps

  • Gotta love the ship in the end.

  • Toasty! At 2:06

  • EPIC GAME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • best intro sfera. Wow!

  • Ahh the memories of when I first played this game... I was only 7 or 8. Yet I STILL remember this intro and this music perfectly to this day. They just don't make 'em like they used to...!

  • I played this on an arcade a while ago it reminded me of tekkon and "battle arena toshiden?" I can't remember the 2nd one :/

  • ive played this on ps2 its awesome i love the music :D

  • 15 years of this videogame, but still one of the badass intro.

  • I REMEMBER THIS. <3

  • Best videogame intro in human history. Nothing gets even close even nowadays.

  • wait is this the first soul calibur? wtf did they change the name from soul blade to soul calibur then?

  • 49 people do not transcend history and the world.

  • @tnemesis nice try, I would say.

  • One of the most epic video game introductions ever created.

  • Wow, this music is really... catchy.

  • one of the greatest openings in the vg history...just epic when Mitsurugi shows up

  • sooo fuck Maxi, I want Li Long back

  • they should have kept Li-long and Hwang just like how they kept Seong-mina and added Kilik they just changed her moves

  • @jjank10 yea i hope that both are in sc5!

  • 76 rounds on survivors mode with the greatest fighting character all time 'Li Long' :)
