I grow up play mortal kombat . I be a fan of the series up to it be 3d debut , when it really begin spiral down-hill . soul calibur be the first 3d fighter that I feel be worth the buy . it have a deep storyline , as deep as fight game get . it include ton of secret that can be access by play through the game on various mode . the graphic be the best you can find on any system . buy the game if you even remotely like fight game . if you do not ... what be wrong with you ?
