| Lanceuppercut said: SoulCalibur III, IV, and Broken Destiny were huge disappointments, and even II wasn't better than SoulCalibur. And I don't even want to think about SoulCalibur Legends. To me, the series is dead. They've fallen into a pattern of removing depth and adding gimmicks. Make the boobs bigger, make the rings larger to help noobs avoid ringouts, make the combos easier to pull off, throw in Darth Vader and Yoda (as if Spawn and Link weren't bad enough), and toss in a character editor. But never do anything to actually improve the mechanics of the game. Because good game mechanics aren't what sells a fighting game anymore. Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown to home consoles, please? |
A bit on the harsh side but I agree for the most part. Soul Calibur started going downhill with SC3.
