Forums - Gaming - Vgchartz ranking game--Soul Calibur IV

Not sure what's up with the banner....

 

All you have to do is put what score you think the game below deserves, and write a brief explanation as to why it deserves that score.

Voting is open for 24 hours, after the 24 hour period I will count up all the scores and get the average of the game.  I will be putting up a new thread with a new game every 24 hours

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rules

1. You had to have played at least enough of the game to form an honest opinion about it

(playing it for 5 minutes is NOT enough time, nor is watching a friend play the game)

2. Users with less than 100 posts cannot score a game unless they back up their post with very good reasons as to why they rated it so.

3. scores have to be on a 10 point scale with 7 being average, and anything longer than 2 digits (Eg: 9.75) won't be counted.

4. If you score a game under a 5 or under, you have to go into great detail as to why you gave it such a low score.

5. A game must have at least 5 people that gave it a score to be counted.

6. If you score a game more than once none of your scores will count

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notice--Starting November I will only be having two game ranking threads a week, and scoring will stay open for 36 hours.

(Because I'm moving somewhere that only has dial-up internet)

6.6
Unbalanced fighters,which really hurts online gaming.Worst story ever (even in fighting games).



 

 

Take my love, take my land..

8.0

Pros:
+ Best combo system in all of the Soul Calibur saga
+ The differential breakable armor system allowed for more strategic attack options
+ Best graphics in a fighting game
+ Tons of replayability

Cons:
- Online is extremely broken, with to many Kilik spammers, which make for annoying battles
- The secret characters didn't add anything new to the fray
- Force powers seems unfair in the hands of a maximum level AI.

great as ever, but it just hasn't the same "awesome effect" like part 1 back in the DC days. As mentioned before, annoying Kilik spamming in online MP. Character customization is fun. SP modes are a bit uninspired.



Yay for Mario Kart!

OT: 7.5
The only reason it is this high is because of character customization.



Around the Network

8.3

+ Lot of characters
+ You can even make your own characters
+ Vader + Apprentice
+ Good controls
+ Online multiplayer
+ Japanese audio option

- Missing the story system from the earlier games
- the tower mode is boring

It's a very solid fighting game overall, but they could have done a little better with the singleplayer experience.



I have a personal preference for the SC series as I was at one stage almost tourni level (frame rate counting spreadsheet fanatic).

4 was both decent and a dissapointment in some ways.

Positive:
* Amazing graphic
* Excellent animation
* Most characters are playable
* Revamped Ami (yay!)
* Good character creation mode
* A respectable amount of clothing

Negative:
* Nerfed Rapheal (with patch boo! he wasn't even top tier!)
* Star War characters (just plain stupid and didn't fit the theme)
* Poor story mode + ending
* Money pinching *locked characters and clothing already on the disk for DLC*
* Some character are WAY underpowered
* Ring out plays too much of a power game with certain player (Hild I'm looking at you)
* Final boss is bugged
* Poor netcode *SFIV was far superior*

8.7/10 - Still an excellent fighting game, friendly to newbie due to the inherit button msh friendly approach but far more deeper once you dived in and learn concept such as just frame, parry and frame advantage.




4.

+ Great character models.
+ Tower of the Lost Souls is fun, but infuriating.

- Kilik still broken
-Apprentice also broken

- Laggy online
- Not very revolutionary, just evolutionary
- Limited movesets
- Character customization sucks
- Install required, otherwise each match takes like 10 seconds to load
- Ivy's boobs aren't big enough



10/10

Best Fighting Game to date!

+ Graphics
+ Music
+ Characters
+ Character Creator
+ Design
+ Story
+ Online
+ Best Training Mode of any fighting game
+ Variety of play modes
+ Smooth, intuitive controls
+ Voice Acting
+ Camera
+ Physics
+ Ultimate Attacks

How are they broken? neither are top tier, apprentice is one of the worst character in the game actually. The only reason Kilik is consider cheap is because the online is so laggy that he gets an unfair advantage due to his rang. Thats not his fault thats poor netcoding.
