Original Soul Calibur Coming to XBLA in HD

by Nick Breckon Apr 16, 2008 7:00pm CST tags: Soul Calibur, Namco, XBLA

"The first entry in the Soul Calibur series of fighting games is heading to the Xbox 360's online Xbox Live Arcade, Namco representatives announced at a press briefing yesterday.

Soul Calibur on Xbox Live Arcade will be presented in HD resolution, and feature all of the standard arcade, training, story and survival modes from the Dreamcast original.

Though online leaderboards will be available, only the original game's local offline multiplayer is planned for inclusion.

No definite release date has been set for the downloadable title, other than "later this year.""

Soul Calibur, DC one.

And I was coming in here to post this news, you stole my thunder.

Soul Calibur now that is 1 quality game.



  

YES! Incredible news. SC is one of the best fighting games.



If this starts a trend of great last gen games being HD-ified I will be forever happy.

MS, time to moneyhat Sega for some HD Dreamcast games stat!



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

well like i said on the DC post that's one of the reason I went with XB and 360 they have DC games.. well they had on XB now less but i'm still hopping... like a shenmue 3 or a new jet set radio future or panzer dragoon, crazy taxi etc :) could be great and that news is awesome

so if you want the total HD SC experience you need an xbox premium lol :P
