No Soulcalibur IV demo before official release

If you were so looking forward to a Soulcalibur IV demo out before the game's release on July 29, then get ready for disappointment. Namco reps at E3 have stated that a demo of the game won't be available until after release. As to when that demo would be available, the only response received was that it would appear some time "down the road." Last time we checked, Soulcalibur IV was a 'first day purchase' kind of game; by then, who needs a demo?

In related news, a press release sent out earlier today cordially announced that Soulcalibur IV had gone gold. There's only 12 days left Soulcalibur fans -- only 12 more days.

im so buying this the day it comes out... only one problem, only 720p :(

well then I'm not getting it... psych! It looks fantastic and as I recall CoD 4 actually ran at like 570 or something (according to pixel counters) and looked great. So if it's running at true 720 that's still pretty good, plus look at the screen shot, they look incredible (the screens of course).

Nice.... ta tas

Kellian @ Jul 17th 2008 9:52PM

does this even need a demo?

Quest @ Jul 18th 2008 11:04AM

I'm gonna vote yes, since I've never played SC before.

I think its great that you all think its an awesome series and are going to support it early, if not on release date.

But give the rest of us some room to decide for ourselves! I DL almost every demo, including series I am unfamiliar with, and have bought games in genres I never enjoyed in the past because of it.

My God !!! Have you seen these breasts on this illustration ? Does this character has a special Booby attack ?

Mike W @ Jul 17th 2008 10:11PM

i was thinking the same thing...

Pete @ Jul 18th 2008 8:28AM

Apparently in Soul Calibur land, they wear outfits with special boob socks.

Holy set of knockers Batman! LOL

Does every Soulcalibur female character have huge whoppin tits that would put Lara Croft to shame? Not that I'm complaining, but it does seem pretty silly.
