Soul Calibur Hitting XBLA On Wednesday

Author: OwningXylophone | Date: June 30, 2008

The Namco classic, Soul Calibur, is this weeks XBLA release and will hit the marketplace on Wednesday for 800 points. This 3D fighter was originally released on the Sega Dreamcast back in 1999 and was the squeal to Soul Edge on the PS1. Back in it’s day, SC was one of the slickest looking and smoothest games around, and having been given a full HD facelift I expect we will be looking at something that will resemble the Xbox version Soul Calibur 2 running on a 360 (as it was one of the few Xbox games that ran in 720p!).

Clever timing here though, with Soul Calibur 4 due to release in just over a month seems that Namco want to refresh everyones memory as to why the Soul series of games is so good.
