"Soul Caliber 4 - Whose Getting It?"

So come on then whose getting Soul Caliber 4? If so on what format and what is drawing you towards its purchase?

I heard the apprentice is kick ass - he meant to be a solid player and better than Vader, but i will deffo be using some form of lightsaber a lot! Yoda is rumoured to be downloadable in the future, probably for a fiver or something stupid like that.

Also looking forward to seeing how the Ps3 trophy system will work. First game to use it i think, and will be a nice feature!

Depends on your own connection as much as the server the game is being hosted on.

I'll get it at some point, need to get a Dual Shock first for my PS3 though. I'll probably get the game on the PS3 because I prefer Darth to Yoda and prefer the pad for fighting games (and the 360 one for driving games).

The 360 version has been fine on line so far ?,no lag for me.If the problems are relating to the PS3 version can't believe it won't be sorted.Been playing it since 4pm this afternoon and my fingers are killing now !.Reckon i'll have to give it rest until tomorrow.The good news is Emmie you won't be disappointed with it when it arrives,its a top game.

Mine is arriving tomorrow hopefully!

I am looking forward to making some fun characetrs! And going online, but i heard it aint that great online due to lag..... hopefully something that can be sorted out

Yoda is fun to use but really annoying to fight against.The Apprentice (from the forthcoming Star Wars : Force Unleashed) is a badass though !.Only thing that lets the 360 version down is I find the controller is not the best for fighting games and Soul Calibur IV is no exception.Other the that its the best beat em up currently available by a mile.

It's gotta be the 360, you get to play as Yoda!!! Victory=Guaranteed

Ive got it on Xbox 360,arrived in yesterdays post which was a nice surprise.Its pretty much what I hoped it would be to be honest.The graphics are fantastic and its very easy to pick up and play.There are some nice additions to the series,a power bar which fills up and when full you can deliver Mortal Kombat style 'critical finishes',a story mode (bit like a tournament) and of course the online play.Other than that its 'business as usual'.Loads of Americans are already on Xbox live playing it as the game came out last week in the US.If you liked the previous Soul Calibur games,or indeed like beat em ups in general I doubt this is going to disappoint.I intend to do a review for it once i've played it a bit more.In the mean time I hope this helps anyone who has been considering buying it.
