Featuring graphics that surpass even the amazing NFL 2K, Soul Calibur is the martial arts fighting game to end all fighting games and the game to get if you're a Dreamcast owner. Based on the arcade classic of the same name, Soul Calibur lets you choose to represent one of 10 fighters in a series of battles against your peers. If you can successfully defeat all of your opponents, you will then face the fiendish Inferno in a final showdown that will determine the fate of the world. Each of the game's warriors is armed with a different deadly weapon--sword, ax, stave, nunchaku, you name it--and an assortment of special moves all tailored to that specific weapon. The warriors include men, women, and creatures from all over the globe and from various mythologies. Each is brought to life with amazing motion-capture animation, which results in incredibly lifelike and realistic duels. If you own a Dreamcast or are thinking of buying one, do yourself a favor and add Soul Calibur to your collection. --Mike Ryan

Customer Rating: Summary: Still the #1 Soul Calibur (HALL OF FAME) Comment: Hands down the greatest fighting game ever made. Almost a decade after its release it still tops of even the newest fighters out there. Dreamcast had the most potentioal over all the other systems, to bad Sega Sold out. Every character, level, skill, story goes above and beyond. Top's the most recent Soul Calibur 4 that was released this past July. This game should be ported exactly the way it is to Next-Generation systems with a graphic enchancement.
To bad many have not been able to witness the first Soul Calibur because it was on the Dreamcast.
It needs to get recognized by the Nex-Generation gamers. Customer Rating: Summary: Classic Comment: Great game one of the best for DreamCast especially if you like fighting games. If your just picking up a dreamcast and looking at games and own the later soul caliburs (SC2-4 are out at the time of this review) you will in my oppinion still find this game enjoyable its fell is much the same as SC2. Though I personaly enjoy this SC over SC2.
The only con to this game is the lack of costumes for characters (Most have two a select few have an unlockable 3rd). Also mission mode is a little on the short side a little easier then SC2. Other then those two things this is a great game. A must have for DC. Customer Rating: Summary: The best Dreamcast has to offer Comment: Best game on Dreamcast, and my all-time favorite fighting game. Replay value is excellent, gameplay is just fantastic. Customer Rating: Summary: This game has a lotta' soul! Comment: Quite possibly the best game put out by Sega for its Dreamcast console. The graphics on this game are amazing. Years after its release it is still putting some games to shame. Buy a copy. Soon. Customer Rating: Summary: Greatest Fighter Ever Comment: This is just as good as Soul Calibur 2 and its a wonder how Dreamcast died with so many amazing games this being the best along with Grandia 2, Crazy Taxi and Jet Grind Radio. Any way i highly recommend you play this or Soul Calibur 2 and be completely amazed.
