From what I understand Taki (who is my favourite female game character of all time, just barely ousting Lara Croft) won't be in Soul Calibur 5.

She was my main character, so no clue what will become of me now. Not sure whose brilliant idea it was to omit her.

Still, awesome game and looking forward to it.

Hey Guys, I picked this up recently and I'm currently playing this right now on Ps3.

It's a lot of fun for those of you who are into the SC fighting games. Its definitely a lot more fluid and they've actually toned down a lot of strategy. That super gauge that we all know has been included is an interesting twist to the game and it takes a while to build up but doesn't make you work for it.

Something that they screwed up though was the basic Parrying ability. That has been removed and in order to  do it , you have to spend 1 level of your super guage. There are some characters who have parrying built into their moves and those are free of charge. But it's basically worthless to parry now.

There is no story. That *story* mode for the game is just about Patroklos and Pyrrah and there's a couple of chapters with Z.W.E.I. It's a nice touch but the majority of that story mode is in a sepia comic format. Which...is ridiculous.
There are no bios for any of the other characters and everything you know about the new characters are what you see and what you hear them say. There is nothing in the game that mentions Natsu *badass btw* is Taki's apprentice. That sort of things irks me, because I liked the world of SC.

Anyways, customization is dead on. You have to level up to unlock more. Money is gone. To level up is to just keep playing, offline and online. Whatever floats your boat. I'm on Level 45 currently and I've sunk at least 6 hours on the offline and 1 hour online *too laggy*

I plan to pick this up for PS3 myself.

surprised to hear the online is laggy.

In this day and age, that's something I'd hope they would have down to a science.

Did you play against locals? or foreigners?

sorry for not being explicit....was referring to CoffeeNiK's comment about lag here

I'm on Level 45 currently and I've sunk at least 6 hours on the offline and 1 hour online *too laggy*


Did you play against locals or foreigners when you got that lag?
