Another set of SoulCalibur IV custom characters starting with Princess Zelda, Vergil of DMC3 and Ocelot of MGS.

I’m not completely satisfied with Ocelot.

Back in 1999, the original SoulCalibur was the reason numerous gamers purchased the Sega Dreamcast. I spent a lot of time with SoulCalibur. I even spent a month playing the classic weapon oriented fighter just before Namco Bandai’s SoulCalibur IV arrived. The sequels debuted during the waning years of the fighting genre and thus I merely dabbled into them. Fortunately, those dark days are coming to an end and fighting games are making a triumphant return this year. SoulCalibur IV is amongst the first out of the gate, but would the fourth installment of this revered 3D fighter make a lasting impression? Or will it be more of the same? We know online support is included, but does it work? Simple answer: Yes, it’s all that and a bit more.

Even more custom characters by yours truly and his brother. If you missed Vol 1, check out his checkpoint.

Starting with more Garou: Mark of the Wolves characters including Kim Dong Hwan, Kim Jae Hoon and Tizoc:

Last weekend, I was busy playing SoulCalibur IV as a fighter. Starting Monday, however, my brother and I were busy with unlocking hats, boots and other accessories for the character creation system.

Since I am still playing through Persona 3 FES, I created my rendition of Mitsuru Kirijo:

Namco Bandai’s SoulCalibur IV has sold (or shipped?) over 2 million units worldwide. Were the Star Wars cameos the reason or perhaps it was just a damn good game? At this rate, it looks like SoulCalibur V is going to happen.

Anyways, an awesome game deserves awesome numbers.

SoulCalibur IV almost didn’t make it for the long weekend, but it made it! Soul Calibur IV is here and so far we’ve unlocked all the significant characters. I’m enjoying the game, but I need to some more time to adjust to the reduced speed and other details.

First, I’d like to direct your attention to two reviews, my MGS4 and my Space Invaders Extreme one. I enjoyed writing the MGS4 review, but not because I enjoyed the series, but how I managed to not criticize the game to death. It’s very easy to attack a game for its faults, especially a AAA game with valid faults. Anyways, please critique, compliment or comment.

So what is CAG? CAG is CheapAssGamer. They’ve launched a new site this week and since I received both Lost Odyssey and Resistance: Fall of Man this week as well, I thought it would be nice to talk about how awesome CAG is.

Robots. Will they serve us or will we serve them? I am not sure about the future, but judging by today’s Mahalo Daily, they are serving us today in a very unimpressive fashion.

More high definition format war “news” today. HBO reassured the public that they are going Blu-ray. (Band of Brothers in HD, please!) Paramount is staying on the HD DVD course despite reports. What about Universal Studios? Universal Studios is being hush hush about their future. As for Microsoft? They could support Blu-ray or not.
