Another sub par fighting game that goes alongside aging franchises like: Tekken(Tekken 3 the peak of the series in 1998), Mortal Kombat (MK2/3 peak of the series in the mid 1990s), Dead or Alive(early 2000's), Virtua Fighter(peaked with VF2 in mid 1990s), etc. Those fighting game series were great in their day when fighting games were popular.

Soul Calibur is basically the same game as the previous iterations with little or no improvement in game play mechanics. So what the graphics may look a lot better than before? There is little or no value in purchasing the same game over and over. Soul Calibur is basically Tekken with swords, Tekken stars regularly appear in Soul Calibur games.

Soul Calibur V is for die hard fighting game fans only.
