Soul Calibur 5 Screen Shots

Soul Calibur 5 is a Fighting game available on the 360. It can be played in Competitive modes.

Soul Calibur 5 is a Fighting game. Fighting games revolve around the interaction of two or more characters in some form of physical combat. Players learn to control characters through either memorisation of button combinations to access more advance moves, or by their reactions and accurate timing.

Soul Calibur 5 can be played in a Competitive mode. Competitive Multiplayer games provide experiences where players compete against each other and the computer. Obviously lending itself to sports and team games, these competitive engagements have also dominated the shooting and fighting genres because of the direct combat and expertise involved in each. Although these games were originally played in a split screen style, more recently they are played online via services such as PlayStation Network, Xbox Live and the Nintendo Wireless Connection.

Its combination of weapons, fast fluid one-on-one combat and an eight way momentum system gave it a unique feel.

Now approaching its sixth iteration (fifth to hold the Calibur moniker), Soul Calibur 5 is now within touching distance.
