November 20, 2013 Leave a comment

“Transcending history and the world
A tale of souls and swords eternally retold”

SoulCalibur II is considered by many, including myself, as one of the greatest games in the long running series. A fighting game made popular through the arcades, and at home on the PS2, Xbox, and GameCube has resurfaced, and this time the game is remastered in glorious high definition. In this latest re-release, Namco Bandai seems to have learned their lesson due to the disaster of the original release of SoulCalibur on Xbox Live Arcade a while back with no HD upgrades and barely any features. Now Namco Bandai and Project Soul has given players a much improved complete HD experience with SoulCalibur II.

Street Fighter X Tekken Review

Capcom has always been known for some great crossovers as of late. Marvel vs Capcom, Tatsunoku vs Capcom, X-Men vs Street Fighter. The list goes on and on. Now we may have not gotten that Mortal Kombat vs Street Fighter that we’ve all wanted back in the day, but the folks at Capcom and Namco have teamed up to bring fans one of the best crossover games of all time to date. Street Fighter and Tekken together in the same game. The World Warriors versus the King of Iron Fist. Who will reign supreme? As gamers, it wouldn’t really matter because Street Fighter X Tekken is a win/win situation filled with awesome fighting action that will have you hooked in for a very long time.

“Chosen by history, a man becomes a warrior. Engraved into history, a warrior becomes a hero.”

Now they return again with the fire to wield their sword of choice. Destiny will be foretold. Legends will be made. The epic tale of souls and swords continues once again and the soul still burns in SoulCalibur V on the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

Tekken Bowl Review

Like most fighting game fans, we’re all eagerly anticipating in hope that the popular fighting game Tekken will arrive on iOS devices. C’mon Namco, we already have Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat to play. When can we all expect some Tekken love? That seems to be the big question. While I ponder the potential possibility Namco Bandai did release something that has to do with Tekken. Unfortunately, it’s not the popular fighting game. It’s actually a bowling game. The best part is that the game is absolutely free of charge and it’s a lot of fun.
