SoulCalibur V

Well, Now I have a 2nd Rival.

One that also likes my Pimp Maxi, apparently.

So apparently this had quite decent sales for a fighting game:

Namco Bandai released a financial statement to their investors, which disclosed the sales numbers for Soul Calibur 5, in the European and Japan regions — with the U.S. being notably absent. The game sold 690,000 copies in the former territories.

It's hard to get an exact gauge of how the titled performed without North American sales numbers, but Soul Calibur 5 outperformed Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, which only sold 600,000 copies, and that was with all major territories accounted for.

And more dlc came out today: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201205/08013756.html
Still no blazers...

...Is that the Splatterhouse Mask I see there? O_o ...FUCK! Why didn't I get a card for this week?!

omg viola wearing ivy's 1p outfit

i hope they release better creation pieces. the last bunch kind of blow

Yeah, The Valkyrie Armor's the best of the DLC recently released.

Just remember I bought this. Barely played it.

I enjoyed this game a lot, but I still much prefer Tekken. I kind of got bored because the game felt a bit too simple as I was winning most of my matches just rushing down my opponents using the same 5 moves (α Pat is really a dumb character).

Japan seems to like it too, as it's the first console-only game ever to be played at SBO. Speaking of Japan, everyone there is currently playing Persona 4 Arena. That game looks so much fun and it's very beginner-friendly that I'm actually considering getting it even though I've never played a Persona game.

oh viola in bridal dress

edit:oh and theirs a tuxedo to. i'll put myself in a tux

i really like the groom and bride set

Spoiler:

I felt like playing this game again, so I put a tuxedo on my alpha and took him online.
Fought 10 Mitsurugis and left.

Oh I also lost to a terrible Nightmare and he started trash talking. I faced him again and I showed him the price of justice.

well looks like i'm buying that pack with jeans in it

barefoot viola in dark blue jeans. so beautiful

I just got this but man the story is short and as for the rest pretty much Natsu your way though it

you should love viola and hilde with me

I prefer Elysium,

Spoiler:

Sophitia and Pyrrha suck.

I quite like Pyrrha .... omega anyhow i just hated how much of a mommys boy patrockalos was
But honestly i really didnt expect the "holy sword" to be the End boss lol


.... but FRIK in ranked, people keep DC'ing against me online that would have been 5 wins
I took my defeats but they sure didnt ....plus since when were beginners lv99?
I made a beginners room and of course i didnt know better than to look at the E5 rank i just never check their License for about over 400 match each in player match and they're level

Okay end of bitching i suppose i best keep an eye on what each players stats are.

I remember playing this online with BD. He was unexpectedly good.

I think i need to finish this fast the online is dying and quickly....
that being said.... Some peoples creations are really good i never would have expected some of them
although that being said the one with the straw hat's the worst

Story mode in this feels like a horrible fanfic. I don't care about these new people. Its always awful when new characters come in and defeat established characters. Siegfried should've whooped patroklos right at the beginning, but instead Zwei apparently does twice.

It's a game about new characters because they wanted to change up the roster somewhat. The story mode of SCV has more problems than new characters beating up aged characters who are nowhere near as strong as they once were.

I'm more focused on the fact Siegfried is a badass. The story was terrible in lots of ways i hadn't finished it when i posted that though.

How can you not like Patroklos? He was awesome after Pyrrha's transformation.
In fact, I'd say he's my favorite fighting game character of all time. I always pick the best-looking, young guy to main, yeah I'm that superficial, and α Patroklos is handsome, has an extremely stylish fighting style and has cool win poses. On, and he's S tier.

Sure he's cool and good looking, but whenever you get the impression they tried to make him really cool i.e. his standard fighting pose. Character appeal drops. I also thought it was dumb they gave patrokolos and pyrrha the advantage of being able to guard impact all the time (i know a couple of others can to i.e. cervantes) which seems like they went out of their way to make him OPed.
