Soul Calibur Coming To iPhone

[Rad Party God]

As awesome as this news sounds, I don't think it'll be good for anyone trying to play a fighting game with a touch screen.

Well, Street Fighter did the same, so why not take the chance, right?

Oh Namco, you know me so well. I do want to take Soul Calibur with me everywhere, which is exactly why I have it on the PSP. Y'know, a thing with actual buttons, suited for a fighting game.

How is the PSP Soul Calibur anyway? It's presence has been taunting me ever since I picked up a PSP a few months back.

Once again, porting a game over to a "system" that has a crappy functional awareness is not a good way of re-igniting interest in said game. What I mean is the iPhone is good for games built for it, but ports of games built for arcade-style button hammering and console controller destroying isn't going to work very well with Soul Calibur or Tekken or any other fighting game. Sorry touchpads aren't 100% responsive enough for me to be even remotely excited.
I'm cynical, yes but I have a valid point.
