Ugh. ￣ー￣

idk how active u are on this ch. but i was wondering how hard it is to learn this game on a stick. i play all my other fighters with one but this will be the first 3d one ive tried. Are there any big learning curves?

[maguma]

@mrdante1287 I don't play Soul Calibur a lot let alone use a stick a lot and if you watch the Xiba gameplay video you can see how I did on stick. The biggest thing is to know that the four buttons you're gonna be using are the 4 on the left of the stick two on top and two on bottom. If you ever played MVC 3 with the "MVC 2" style set up you can transfer that to Soul Calibur 5

this is good... BUT it would be MUUCCH better if they used real cutscenes instead of these still images. I mean c'mon how lazy is that?

[SeraphimGal]

7:50 ZWEI IS GONNA SAVE THE DAY XD

[SeraphimGal]

6:58 I bet Patroklos is being tricked cuz he's a lil naive! XD and that he wants to do justice, but he isnt doin it very well! PAHAHAHAHA!

[SeraphimGal]

WOW! Patroklos is pretty harsh! Im sure he has deeper reasons for these actions but c'mon? Killing that innocent villager!? I guess he's thinking, I cant take any risks! XD

[bitterending14]

@SeraphimGal in his words; "They've taken my sister and killed my mother."

I think I'd be killing anyone I thought was malfested. :P

[Absolhunter251]

Graf Dumas...is nightmare?! if so...man...what happened?

[CrimsonHMD]

For all those people judging Patrokols remember that this is the first 20 minutes of the story he stops acting like that after the fight he has with his sister. He becomes another character called aplha Patroklos and has a much better attitude.

[mothra93]

Why would Voldo work for Graf Dumas?

[Omegadra]

Voldo Mind was corrupted by soul Edge he now see it as his master.

[miiworld2]

Wow, and I thought I liked Patroklos!! >:(

[Spinoterror31896]

I got a feeling I'm going to hate 50% of the characters in soul calibur 5, I don't even like patroklos right now! He sounds and behaves so annoying, I'm going to miss the old characters :( The story is cheap,boring,and I'm not going to like the ending of storymode! Still going to get the game tough :P

[AlphaOmega503]

sc is a lazy series, why couldnt they use cinematic scenes intead of old style drawings with sound.

[RobsReviews]

@AlphaOmega503 well yeah it probably was a lazy move instead of making all cinematics but the drawings look cool

[maguma]

@sdp271 It's an arcade stick, they're loud haha

[sdp271]

Dude, don't punish your controller so much, man! I can hear the buttons clicking like keys on a keyboard.

[STTSimon]

patroklos should have seriously been the new nightmare with that attitude

[Phillakied]

@STTSimon I know right? He keeps on talking about Justice this and Justice that, I was like man he should eat those words! Give him the Soul Edge and see if he talks about justice as much as he does now >:(

[93Ashly]

can you please show us some more gameplay of story mode? or online mode? please?! we are all dying over here :)

[TwiKnightYagami108]

Nightmare unarmored looks like Raphael.

[matwang1]

Wait. They have a pretty kickass graphics engine and they decide NOT to show it off with cutscenes but with ridiculously small, non-colored stills instead? Words cannot begin to describe what I am feeling right now.

[KaiReed2000]

DundunDUN! lol

[CopyRezo36]

Patroklos is a total psycho. "Hm, no way to prove you're guilty of anything so I better murder you just in case."

[footman2374]

@CopyRezo36 Entie Soul cast consists of psychos.

[TheAngelvictus]

algols 2p costume?

[TheAngelvictus]

awesome! THANKS 4 THE UPLOAD. how does the gameplay feel? are hits faster/ hit harder? more fun than SoCal 4? story mode is looking good.

[puertorricanstar]

learn how to play

[maguma]

@puertorricanstar I am :]

[Chidokyo]

Fffuuuu

I must know what happens next!

[matwang1]

I really wish Tekken would use this graphics engine.

[Mexican4life14]

@mzproduction I don't think you choose I think you play and it switches between different characters because at the end of the video its showed episode 5 and it showed Pyrrha instead of patroklos.

[mzprodution]

Do you choose any other characters in story mode besides Patroklos?

[lililing14]

I just can't believe how amazing this game looks, even though it might have slight graphical changes from SC4. Nice little touches, such as voice acting for titles on story mode. Speaking of story mode...it looks really good and it seems like an improved version of: Tales of Souls. Namco did a really good job here I see. ^__^

[gabedamien]

@lililing14 Totally! The graphics in IV were cutting-edge and still look terrific. Even if there wasn’t a whole lot of room for improvement, the graphics in V are pushed as far as I personally could imagine for 360 and are even better in person, in HD - especially the lighting. I doubt any other fighter this console generation will compete, graphically. And I’m looking forward to it for many other reasons too, of course.

Matt's debut! Congrats!

@BlackNerdComedy Thanks!!!
