Yeah, but you forget that the game might still actually be a laugh. Either it'll be a remake and remodel of the original Soul Calibur on Dreamcast which was pretty much the best of the series and contained none of these weird bonus characters, or it will suffer from being a sequel, and and any attempt at online play will inevitably be ruined by some prick always playing as Yoda. I'm hoping Yahtzee is wrong about the dominance of the throw button, because Soul Calibur 1 and 2 were pretty good, so long as you like fighting games (which most people who take the time to go online and heavily discuss games don't, because for them it is probably too casual)Hearthing post=6.69063.648845 said:Alrighty then, so we have small Japanese looking teenagers, strange hair do's, big swords no one with that little muscle would ever be able to pick up and added Darth Vader and Yoda into the mix and you're saying it's arrogant to hate it?

Any of us big nerds know that a lightsabre can cut off anything and cut through anything, why can't it cut through those small muscleless characters.
Actually 4PM GMT, since you're probably from the UK and you are currently on GMT+1 (also known as BST, Brittish Summer Time). The rest of Western Europe is on GMT+2 during the summer. GMT does not have summer time.KiiWii post=6.69063.648826 said:5pm GMT. ^^
Great as always, and i never really did understand fighting games.. it seems that people will eat up any old crap if theres some character they know in it..
Keep it up!
Well that's not really a comment on this video. But since you have already stated your time isn't worth much, I guess demonstrating it makes some sense...KoalaMeatPie post=6.69063.648803 said:I often find myself pressing F5 over an hour to view the newest video - and it never fails to disappoint.
Thats what I thought. I feel further justified with my purchase.saphronic post=6.69063.648867 said:Soulcalibur isn't a misspelling, it's a reference to the Excalibur.
Actually.
Well, any chump can attack a popular gaming franchise. The only thing that sets (or rather, set) his reviews aside from the rest was the medium in which he did it, and his sense of humour. Unfortunatly, it is my opinion that he simply isn't using his great British wit to its full potential anymore, which is a shame.Aku_San post=6.69063.648864 said:Say what you want about Yahtzee, at least he has the balls to say what he thinks about a video game, i.e. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
I already spent over two hours doing that this morning and I was pleased that there was no waiting around for yahtzee todayMistah Kurtz post=6.69063.648830 said:Wow, even MY time isn't THAT worthless...KoalaMeatPie post=6.69063.648803 said:I often find myself pressing F5 over an hour to view the newest video - and it never fails to disappoint.
Yes, I know, storyline crap, but all the "LOL I LOVE IT HOW YOU SPELLED IT RITE YAHTZEE XDXD" stuff stops, wasn't even funny.Soul Calibur is the name of the holy sword, created to battle the evil sword Soul Edge, around which the games' storylines revolve.
So your defence for the game being good is what exactly?jebussaves88 post=6.69063.648860 said:Yeah, but you forget that the game might still actually be a laugh.

And let the lightsabre element go will you? It doesn't really matter
