Even though this game might have the potential to be the next Death by Degrees, we're still interested in getting our hands on it. The graphics may look dated at times, but the action looks spot-on. And we still think each of the characters have had their fighting styles and moves transitioned into the new game well.
What do you guys think? Does it have potential or is it just a pointless spin-off?

Looks terrible, and I really liked the idea of an action/adventure version of Soul Caliber. :(

I'm not convinced yet that this will be a game worth getting. Granted the game looks a little rough and unpolished. So I'll reserve judgment for when the game is released.
Oh, and more Ivy & Taki pls. :-P (I'm depraved, I know...)

The fighting mechanics look impressive, the actual adventure parts look meh
So, IMO, this games awesomeness will be determined by the ratio of Action : Adventure, with Action being as high as possible to get a great game

Looks fun but extremely unpolished.
It better have a versus mode of some sort. There's no excuse not to, it's not hard to program.

I'm as big a Wii fan as anyone, but this game, in both graphics and gameplay, looks like something I should be playing on Dreamcast 7 years ago.

I could see myself playing this game for a few minutes, but ultimately it will just make me want to play Soul Calibur II. =)

They finally got the adventure mode to what it should be!
I really enjoyed adventure mode in SC2 but it wasn't quite right since you just chose where to go on a map and then popped into an arena for battles along the way. This looks much better.
My question is: where is the motion control they promised? Remember when they said it was going to be all about motion control? "Imagine a fighting game controlled something like Wii Sports Baseball, literal motion translation" was basically what they said.

Oh why give Soul Calibur a bad name? I just got annoyed with the game in a 4 min. video. Maybe if I turn off the sound and watch it again it will be better.

I was excited for this when I read the Nintendo Power cover story. But everything else I've seen/read has been bad. I guess Wii'll have to wait for No More Heroes to have a good hack-n-slash.

linear, linear, linear. It's really ashame because they obviously put a lot of time into transitioning the characters, visuals and sound into this new genre- unfortunately they just didn't put gameplay first. You see that a lot on franchise cash-ins. Hopefully they will revamp it before launch. >.
