I got this game a week ago because of how good you said it was, and the fact I love SoulCalibur games. I love it, but I wish that it wasn't so easy, there were more characters to unlock, and the story mode. Also, I wish instead of having stupid Ad-Hoc, which is a feature that NOBODY uses, they should either have Wifi or use something like the DS download play so anyone can play as long as they are in the psp range, with or without the game.
for me, half the time i can't find a match, and when i do its laggy to the point where i can't play it, i know its not my connection because i don't have this problem with any other games, so if the game does have a decent online component, im not seeing it xD
Hey mate, I'm a HUGE racing-games fan and I know you're too. There's a game called: "Supercar Challenge" on the ps3, it's the successor of "Ferrari Challenge", which you reviewed. Please do a review on it, would be awesome.
I'll check it out- I've been an avid fan since 99' Tekken is amazing but the layout is different. Soul Calibur 2 is my personal favorite fighting game I own thanks
I love this game, and the fact it doesn't have multiplayer. Yeah folks, I said it. I ACTUALLY LIKE THAT IT DOESN'T HAVE MULTIPLAYER. I remember the olden days of playing games like Mortal Kombat and playing by myself against the CPU and had tons of fun. Youngsters today are just spoiled with all these online games.
I think the Soul Calibur games have really taken a nose dive but that just what i think many of you may love this game. I need some classic soul edge haha
Great Game the visuals are truly amazing on this thins its my first SC since 2 on PS2. I even chose this version over my 2 consoles. And im glad i did. i seem to be playing fighters more on my psp lately due to portability and im actually taking it seriuously by learning moves even tho it has no online but some of these ghost are godlike man o man juggle combo mania its fun. U forget ur playing a cpu im curious to see if ad hoc party works well. Ad hoc tho runs flawless.
Fun fact: Namco's own Tales series' cast should have appeared in this or SCIV, but the sheer number of characters of that franchise alone is too much too handle that they cram that bunch all into one separate game instead. I'm not joking, the game in question is "Tales of Vs." - Namco's answer to Square's Dissidia Final Fantasy, also on the PSP.
Yes, I agree with what you are saying, but the PSP should be way and above where it is in the handheld stakes! you could almost compare it being 8 bit vs 16 bit! But from what i understand UMD is not the most loved format around! But what it can do (and homebrew prove this) it should be the daddy!
GET THIS GAME! best fighting game on the PSP. Beats Tekken in my opinion and i have both. all the moves are there, you can deeply customize your own character and if you have a frined to play with it is FUN!! all the moves are there, all the original characters and it plays VERY smooth! great game!
Kratos vs. Ivy!!! Can you pick someone you want to verse off against? Pick your character then pick your opponent, or do you only get to fight the fake friends?
@samus179 it wouldn't be too bad, analog to move, dpad for attacks, B and Z for shoulder buttons. Alternatively, there's the gamecube and classic controllers
My main gripe with this game was the lack of an Arcade mode. Only opponents you mostly fight are random custom characters and rarely fight any of the actual characters. Don't get me wrong, the graphics are some of the best on psp. But the lack of Arcade Mode is my only gripe.
@iPaulTube All good things come in time. For now, the PSP 3001 is top-of-the-line and probably the best looking, most versatile featured hand held out there, IMO.
I have a psp and a ds, so why when you look at this is the ds winning the handheld war!! I only use my psp to watch films play psx games and emulators NOT THE GAMES!!!NIntendo know gameplay and thats what counts(pony graphics or not!) Excellent reviews by the way!! Have you done a review on the GOW series?? if not do it!!!(they are enhancing for the ps3 should be good!!
My own Character is going to have Seong Mina's fighting style 3:06 perfect voice for my Character it reminds of Gohan's Voice from Dragon Ball Z It should be Ivan Zamorano's voice in soul calibur broken destiny
Oh, yeah... that happen to me a few times... when I first got it, but its been seven months sine I've had a problem like that. GOW2 use to be a pain in the ass with lag and now its fine for me at least. Where do you playing ranked or player match? Ranked you get lag switch from time to time, that's why i play player.
I love the dramatic introductions.
From Soul Blade, I was in love with the series' style of presentation.

Pretty cool for a portable system.
Great review!!
Soul Caliber for the Dreacast is awesome!!
"Her fate was to suffer at the hands of destiny" LOL!
Cheers to the most productive RUclipsr and to Classic Game Room :)
very true, but soul calibur 4's online was crap in the first place, so im kind of glad they left it out
for me, half the time i can't find a match, and when i do its laggy to the point where i can't play it, i know its not my connection because i don't have this problem with any other games, so if the game does have a decent online component, im not seeing it xD
Soul Caliber 2 on the Nintendo GameCube will always be my favorite.
the original on dreamcast was my favorite, somehow every one that followed felt like they were missing something to me.
i think kratos fits in soul calibur more than mortal kombat darth vader would be better in mkx than soulcalibur 4
this guy is the best reviewer hands down
Everytime I saw Aeon, I started to smile.
Only 2 screens of him.
Wasn't smiling that long...
Still play this from time to time quick match and trials mode still hold up gameplay is solid 😊😊
Necrid was my favourite character, as well as hihachi that guy kicked ass in the second soul calibur.
I love this guys reviews :))

its really amusing to see Kratos spreading his beautiful black Icarus wings only to have Taki stalker drop him from the sky :)
Your videos were ahead of there time
great review,like always
I'll check it out- I've been an avid fan since 99' Tekken is amazing but the layout is different. Soul Calibur 2 is my personal favorite fighting game I own thanks
Totally digging the Bike Pump of Eternal Destiny. Do want.
LOVE THIS GAME GOT IT AS A PLUS MEMBER!!!!!
i imagined dig dug blowing up the characters
also do you know how to do the final attacks?
I like this review. I feel like getting this game along with that FF VS game. I forgot the name.
its about time!! What took them so long? lol
i have this game and it like very awesome...what really cool is the where you can make your character...
keep it up anthour good review
Whats up with all these games that have destiny in there name? Awesome review anyway =D
I love this game, and the fact it doesn't have multiplayer. Yeah folks, I said it. I ACTUALLY LIKE THAT IT DOESN'T HAVE MULTIPLAYER. I remember the olden days of playing games like Mortal Kombat and playing by myself against the CPU and had tons of fun. Youngsters today are just spoiled with all these online games.
Dig dug...
Dig dug.....
Just............
DIG DUG.
A lot better than SCV for sure, I say. Loved this game.
I think the Soul Calibur games have really taken a nose dive but that just what i think many of you may love this game. I need some classic soul edge haha
i can just imagine dig dug being in a soul calibur
when will this be out in stores?
i wanted to make a game with the voice syncing thing where u can change the voice tone thats cool that they have that
I love this dude's voice..

Mark needs to review Soul Calibur II. All three versions if he can.
those are some pretty damn good graphics for the PSP
does this have online multiplayer or is it ac hoc only
I love SirGameRoom XD
I'm so going to make him
Exactly, there's a distinct lack of Dig Dug in this game. I'd buy a DD-only fighting game day one.
SirGameRoom reminded me of the bad guy from Highlander (the movie)
You should probably ask more, what were Darth Vader and Yoda doing in Soul Calibur 4?
Fun fact: Namco's own Tales series' cast should have appeared in this or SCIV, but the sheer number of characters of that franchise alone is too much too handle that they cram that bunch all into one separate game instead.

@Chariloe yes. yes it must. I need a SoulCalibur for Wii, I can't keep playing my Soul Calibur 3 forever.
I just bought this game. Damn is it good.
The prince from Prince of Persia must be in Soul Caliber 5 :D
Gonna download this for my Vita. There isn't shit else to play until Gravity Daze.

hey do u think u gonna buy the psp go?
GET THIS GAME!

And This is Why Lizardman has wings in Soul Calibur 5.
This game looks pretty good. A Namco vs. Taito arcade fighting style game would be freaking awesome! I would rather play MVSC2.
@samus179 You're forgetting about the classic controller pro
The CheetahMen from Action 52 need to be in the next Soulcaliber game.
A fighting game in this day and age without online multiplayer is unacceptable.
why they don't put Dante from DMC series in SC?
and when you win, this victory made *insert name here* even more KICK ASS!"
Kratos vs. Ivy!!! Can you pick someone you want to verse off against? Pick your character then pick your opponent, or do you only get to fight the fake friends?
try getting soulcalibur too when you're done with GoW. its reaally fun. (: btw I sent you a friend invitation. :D
@samus179 it wouldn't be too bad, analog to move, dpad for attacks, B and Z for shoulder buttons. Alternatively, there's the gamecube and classic controllers
@Chariloe for xbox it should be master chief with a gravity hammer or energy sword
is it normal for multiplayer to not have battles?
is incrledible how that the graphics of the psp are better that the wii graphics
I wonder if mark noticed the mask that looks like
the head from alien
please do a review of dissidia
"Hey she's got pink underwear! I believe that's the underwear of fate!" LOL!!
has there been a SC5 mensoned
We need a Soul Calibur 5! 0_0
My main gripe with this game was the lack of an Arcade mode. Only opponents you mostly fight are random custom characters and rarely fight any of the actual characters.

Have you done a review on the GOW series?? if not do it!!!(they are enhancing for the ps3 should be good!!
I swear to God, that looked like Shana at 7:13. The only things she was missing were the sword and the coat.
I know... I wanted Taizo Hori (Dig Dug) to also be in the game as well :( Namco needs to show more love towards its other characters more often
@GrotesqueKevin they annaunced it ! :) I can't wait!
dampieeers weapon is perfect for making altair from assassin's creed
The vectrex should be a playable character...in all fighting games.
For real... everything by now should have online capabilities.
This game is going to be on PSPlus this month
How SC4"s online crap?
I just want to know because I haven't had any problems with it, yet.
I remember when people used to say that this has PS3 worthy graphics
Hey since there is a scyth you can have Kratos Vs. Dante
dig dug rocks !!!!
(1 of my faverite games as a kid atari 2600)
5*
Any game with kratos in it is gonna own.
" hey she's got pink underwear......" LOL
great review. thx.
your opinion..I respect it.
IGN
10/10

My own Character is going to have Seong Mina's fighting style
3:06 perfect voice for my Character it reminds of Gohan's Voice from Dragon Ball Z
It should be Ivan Zamorano's voice in soul calibur broken destiny
Unlike Vader and Yoda, Kratos can actually blend in with the Soul Calibur crew.
Is this better than Tekken Dark Resurrection?
Oh, yeah... that happen to me a few times... when I first got it, but its been seven months sine I've had a problem like that.
GOW2 use to be a pain in the ass with lag and now its fine for me at least.
Where do you playing ranked or player match?
Ranked you get lag switch from time to time, that's why i play player.
@GrotesqueKevin i heard its been put into production recently
I played it for a while. Its really good, for a psp game. But I like Tekken more.
SOUL CALIBUR 5 MUST B Multiplat 4 all 3 consoles. Kratos for PS3, some dude with a blade for 360, and of course LINK for Wii :D
lol man i love this reviewr he broke the words destiny and fate.....if u cant blame fate blame destiny
@GrotesqueKevin Don`t worry it was announced. Is coming in 2012
Good Lord Sony make a PSP 4000 or something! Upgrade it to 1080p and HD sound! Also able to play Blu Ray movies!
looks terrific
looks amazing for a psp game.
@xArchD3vil actually your close its the guy from assassins creed (forgot his name)
Do a gravity rush review
