Related Topics – Soul Calibur, xbox 360, screenshots

Namco Bandai sends along the first screenshots from the downloadable Xbox Live Arcade edition of its fighter Soul Calibur, due out on Xbox 360 this summer.

Though it does not feature online multiplayer, the XBLA rendition of Soul Calbiur will have all the content of the beloved Dreamcast version along with online leaderboards.

An exact release date have yet to be revealed, but we expect the title to hit in advance of the July 29 debut of Soul Calibur IV (PS3, X360) and its online multplayer.

Little known fact of the day. The original Soul BLADE intro gave me shameful goosebumps of joy the same way the Thundercats intro did (still does). I was embarrassed by how cool I thought it was.

Why bother? Why don't they just make the XBOX version...... Oooooo yea. This is SC1, not SC2. SC1 was my favorite fighting game ever. It barely edges out Street Fighter Turbo Edition for the SNES; the only cartridge worth every penny of its $74.99 retail price that my parents paid for it. I threatened to run away from home and everything, lol.

Xiangha is my favorite character to play with, and has been. I do however want Soul Blade as a DC.
