Soulcalibur 5: Revisiting the Black Sheep

Look around pockets on the internet where 3D fighting game fans congregate and you'll no doubt find endless discussions about the iconic 'Soulcalibur' series. With hit after hit under their belt, Namco Bandai was gearing up to release 'Soulcalibur V' in early 2012, but it didn't go so well...

For a variety of reasons, the series' fifth numbered entry is considered by some to be the worst! My goal was to analyse the game from top to bottom to figure out what exactly went wrong, while also giving SCV its flowers along the way.

Soulcalibur V was one of my favourite fighting games as a kid so I can't dislike it too much! Even today, I still think it's super fun to play! Not to mention, it looks spectacular.
