GearCrave Giveaway: Soul Calibur IV (x5)
Update - Congrats to synchronicity, sinewave, magflare, richard and bouncer boy 15. You’ve earned yourself a free copy of SCIV!
Soul Calibur IV was released in late July to raving reviews from gaming media. The fourth installment in the Soul Calibur series included new characters, guest appearances from the Star Wars galaxy and finally an online component allowing players to face off on the web. A character customization element makes this game even more immersive, allowing players to build their own Soul Calibur fighter from the ground up. Beyond the normal Soul Calibur realm, Darth Vader, Yoda and a secret apprentice appear as fully playable characters which compete in the Soul Calibur IV arena.
GearCrave has teamed up with the video game music remix community OverClocked Remix to give away 5 free copies of Soul Calibur IV to our collective readers.

Because GTA4 wasn’t as good as I hoped - MGS4 was better - SC4 will be?
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 2:52PM
It’s all about the character creator, for me. I love games that let me be myself, and I’m sure SC4 will be no exception. The fact that I can wield all manner of bizarre bladed weapons is a nice bonus.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:05PM
Why do I want a free copy of Soul Calibur IV? Basically because I don’t own *any* copy of Soul Calibur IV. I would like to, though. Oh, right.. and this is the same Cuddly Battleship Kattywampus that did Bubble Bobble “West Side Homies” OCRemix, since you asked.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:07PM
Because I’ve been playing WoW for too damn long…
I need an award winner to change my scenery!

I’ll never have enough money to buy this games… So I really hope I win it.

I’m Rezzu on OCRemix, and I’d love to win a copy of Soul Calibur IV. I have all the other games in the series but haven’t had the opportunity to buy this one yet.

There has been a dry spell on good games and hear this one is good.

I would like to win a copy of Soul Calibur IV so I can give it to my dad as a gift. When I was younger, we would play games (especially fighting games) together all the time. However, for the last several years, he was very busy with work, and hadn’t had the time for video games. Now, he finally has the time again, and he recently bought a PS3. I’d like to give him this game so he can have a fun fighting game to play again (since I took all of our games with me when I moved out).
My OCremix name is SillyJonna.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:26PM
I didn’t think the game would do so well, because of SC3’s well uh yeah not so good, but when I had read the reviews I was convinced I wanted to get it. But at the same time wasn’t still sure I downloaded the demo from XBOX Live and loved it. Looks and plays fantastic. I really want to get back into Soul Calibur and this is my chance. I’m also a OC ReMix member. My user name is ChaosSorcerer.

Wait if this is random then wouldn’t that mean anything I typed here would be irrelevant? Well I lurb the calibur , been playing in the arcades since soul edge and each game in the series continues to improve , and I am broke right now so gimmie!
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:35PM
why? because i have loved every game in the series and this one is no different.

I’d like to win a free copy of Soul Calibur IV because I found Soul Calibur II and III to be awesome fighting games. Also, Nightmare is just too cool. Darth Vader looks fun, though Yoda is ok too, lol.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:42PM
Well, I need a new game to take COD4 out of my P33
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:43PM
I just can’t wait to get my hands on the character creator - this has the potential to be fantastic party game, too.
OCRemix is awesome, by the way.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 3:52PM
Between paying bills, gasoline, and food (and water), I cant really afford to buy the newer games. I have to wait like half a year to buy them used before i can play em hehe.

In any determination of a seemingly value-for-nothing transaction, one must identify first the value and then the supposed “nothing” that is obtained in return for said value. I posit that I deserve a free copy of soul calibur IV given that I have the most to gain from it– that is, the highest value to be obtained from the transaction. Supporting this: I love soul calibur and so do all my friends. I love star wars and so do all my friends. Putting those two equations together yields a value configuration unseen elsewhere in this commenting system. (Far be it from me to presuppose that the other commenters might be lacking in the social department– however I think this is a valid generalization given the content of said article.)
So, given that it represents a higher degree of value, lets look at the other side of the equation. The nothing-for-something proposition of a “contest” is quite ridiculous. You as an organization recieve marketing and unseen readership and advertising benefits from this transaction. I am in a unique place to offer tons of great credibility and amazingness given that I am THE Star Salzman of ocremix fame as mentioned in the following article. The creator of pillar of salt, the remix that was so causally mentioned as being only equally resplendent to the dragon song remix (for shame). This makes me an internet superstar. Also because of the aformentioned social life that I have so roundly offered as a justification of the added value, I am in a unique position to hit both real life and virtual markets simultaneously for a wonderful dichotomous market segment of college age folks and beyond.
I hope you consider these factors when choosing ‘at random’ a worthy recipient of a ‘free’ copy of said namco title. If you do, there is little doubt that 20% of your Soul Calibur offering will find a fantastic home in the Salzman household.

Tuesday, August 26, 2008 4:22PM
This game looks awesome. I love this series and would love this game, escpecially for free :).
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 4:28PM
I played SC2 first, and that was awesome. then I got number 3, and everything about it just kept getting better. I’m expecting some really amazing things from SC 4 because so far the series has been one of the best videogame series out there.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 4:36PM
Dude. Soul Caliber. PS3 Version!?? Gimme gimme! I am a firm believer in GearCrave! haha Hi mike ;)

i’ve heard tremendous things about the game, but unfortunately I am a poor college student. Not only that, but I work as a camp counselor for 43 dollars a day, about 5.25 an hour. It’s more than a day’s salary to try to purchase a new game, I wouldn’t mind some help.

Every time a new console generation rolls around, every genre needs a defining game. First person shooters have certainly gotten a lot of attention, but the classic fighting game genre has certainly been in a lull since the days of Capcom vs. Snk2 and Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Now is the time for new entries into the history of fighting games, and I don’t want to miss out on what may be one of the defining games of this console generation.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 4:48PM
The gameplay is interesting, and I really like the new characters like darth and yoda, it looks like a really great game, and I don’t have the money to get the game cuz I gotta spend all my cash on gas getting to school.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 5:04PM
I’d like to get a copy of it because Soul Calibur is a fantastic series and I can’t wait to play as Yoda and the apprentice!
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 5:14PM
I’d like to win a free copy because I just love Soul Calibur. (I’m Roto13 on OCRemix)

Hiiiiiiiya!
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 6:09PM
I’ve been a fan of the Soul Calibur series for a while now, and based on the trailers I’ve seen for IV, the newest installment is surely a blood-pumper. I’d love to add it to my collection! Plus, it’s got, like, freakin’ Darth Vader and Yoda, man.

I deserve a free copy of Soul Calibur IV because… I would love to kick some booty as Yoda (and I’m just awesome).
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 6:41PM
Haven’t bought a 360 game since Halo and CoD4. I need a reason to boot that system up again.

I’d love Soul Calibur for my PS3; I haven’t gotten a game for awhile and the price is right for this one!
Thanks!
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 7:07PM
I’d like a copy to keep me occupied when the bombs are dropped.

Tuesday, August 26, 2008 8:39PM
I’d love a copy because it would literally be the FIRST game I’d have for a PS3 that’s been in my house for months.
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 8:42PM
It’s the greatest game in the series. The graphics are tight, the game looks gorgeous. I became a fan of Soul Calibur when I bought Soul Calibur 2, I just couldn’t put it down. I have got to have this game!
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 9:03PM
The game has always been an industry leader on each and every platform that it comes out on. Soul Calibur II, had to get the Link version… no doubt about that. On this version? No matter, Yoda and Vader will be awesome to play.
Can’t wait to get some OC Remixes from this game as well. I have been recommending OC Remix to friends for over five years now. Although i have not been an official member of the site until recently, i was downloading songs when Metal Gear Solid 2 came out. (Metal Gear May Cry is awesome)
Awesome site OC Remix. 291 songs downloaded and listened to on my iPod and counting.

I would like a copy because I have NEVER played soul caliber. My friend says its a must play, and 4 seems like A good start. So I would love one. Please and thank you!
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 9:05PM
I’ve been into the series ever since playing Soul Edge in the arcades. Soul Calibur was one of the first game that I played on my Sega Dreamcast, and I’ve managed to purchase a copy of SCII for the XBox to play as Spawn. Since then, I’ve enjoyed SCIII and the taste of SCIV that I’ve played with friends.
I’d like to win a free copy so that I could continue to keep up my skills in this particular game; having played in gaming tournaments (and still playing in them), I play multiple fighters and enjoy having fun with others. Overall, though, simply enjoying yet another Namco fighter is a key reason to own a copy.
By the by, I’m known as “DMajorBoss” on OCRemix.

I’d like a copy of Soul Caliber 4. My friend at work keeps taking about how awesome it is and how good it looks
Tuesday, August 26, 2008 11:52PM
This is my favorite series of all time, but don’t have the money for it…
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 12:07AM
Because I just got a PS3 and the only games i can afford are the free demos… sad…

I’d like to win a copy because I’ve never won anything like this before.

Being a frequently poor gamer has its downsides, including missing out on the amazing game that is Soul Calibur IV.
OCR member grayfox9996 would love to have a chance to rectify that, especially with his friends on Xbox Live.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 2:51AM
My son appreciates videogames more than anyone really should. He has an Xbox 360 and winning this game would be amazing. When I saw this post, I was psyched because he had just told me a week or so ago that this was the game he’d pick next if he could pick anything. Thanks for the chance to win it for him.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 3:24AM
because i’m currently out of a job, my ps3 is collecting dust and i’m looking for time to waste. thanks!
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 5:41AM
I won a copy of Unreal Tournament 3 but didn’t claim the prize in time. Soul Calibre IV would be a great replacement!
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 5:53AM
As we all know, Yoda is in SC IV. I am a huge Yoda fan, i have a life-size Yoda, alond with about 75 other pieces of Yoda stuff. This ranges from McDonald’s toys to a plush imported from Japan. I also own these…

So a game with Yoda would be a welcome addition.

I have Soul Calibur II, but I missed the third one. A copy of Soul Calibur IV one for the PS3 would be nice. I find the aspect of Darth Vader pummeling the hell out of Mitsurugi an interesting proposition.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 10:04AM
I’d like this game because it’s amazing and I’m too strapped for cash to afford it! I’m “SuperFly” on OCRemix.

I’d like to win SCIV because I love customizable games and calibur would give me my long needed fix for one. Additionally since it’s a fighter, more the better! Alas, I’m broke as hell right now and considering tuition is around the corner (along with other outstanding expenses) I’m probably not going to have much for another game for a while (pity since October is going to be LOADED!) However, at least with this free copy, I’ll at least have something to play for hours on in!
Seriously, the custom character creation is unreal! My friend made M.Bison with it! Awesome!
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 11:00AM
Eshman’s here to say that Soul Calibur is one of the best fighting games out there–even my kids are fans! It would be great if I could win something to really make their eyes bug out and their jaws drop! This looks like the best version yet and I can’t wait to see it in action! :-)
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 11:12AM
I would like a copy of Soul Calibur IV because I’m a fan of fighting games and this latest installment looks sweet!

I’ve been following OC remix for a long while now, and this oppertunity is too good to pass up. I’m a grad student at GSU, living on a healthy diet of Ramen noodles and koolaid. I work as a server…and tip money isn’t always good money. I finally bought myself a PS3, but affording the games are not an option for me. My buddies own this game, and I must have it! I’ve also been playing video games ever since the 1st Zelda…so I’m kind of a fanatic. Also, I’m DJ NTT on OCremix’s forums.

Wednesday, August 27, 2008 2:24PM
I would love to win a copy of Soul Calibur IV. I still own the first three Soul Caliburs and their respective systems and find that the gameplay in each is superb. The series is easy to pick up, hard to master, and has the lasting replay value that keeps fans waiting for the next installment. My buddies and I played Soul Calibur 2 until part 3 came out. We still play part 3, but I haven’t had a chance to buy part 4 because of my current studies. Once I’m finished, if I haven’t won a copy, I will immediately go out and purchase one.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 4:26PM
I want a copy of Soul Calibur IV because I don’t yet own it, but I would love to! I have the first 3, as well as Soul Blade, and even the not very awesome, but still playable, Soul Calibur First Person game that came out for the Wii. Aside from Killer Instinct, Soul Calibur is the best fighting game series out and I would love to have the newest installment of it!
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 4:56PM
Soul Calibur IV! Awesome.
I would definitely wish to add Soul Calibur to my collection. I’ve been low on cash lately having to pay for tuition and books and such since school started, and this would be a great stress escape for me from college this year.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 5:35PM
I would like to win, so I can have a decent fighter for my PS3. ( ^_^ ) woohoo.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 5:39PM
Soul Calibur introduced me to fighting games and is definitely one of my favorite, especially a fan of the art and music. However, your average college student can’t exactly afford to go and buy all the games that need to be played!
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 5:44PM
I’d love to get in on this. I haven’t played SC since the second one on the Gamecube. I’d love to get my hands on a PS3 version.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 6:08PM
Hi. I’m OCR member Marcyt. I would like to win a copy because I have only recently begun playing games–I came to gaming via OCR. A friend played me some remixes which convinced me to listen to VG music, which in turn led me to play some games to see how the music in integrated. My interest in games is somewhat academic and I have yet to play SCIV. I have seen the trailer for the game and am very intrigued by it.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 6:09PM
I loved SC2 and didn’t care for SC3 too much… this one, however, actually sounds really awesome, based on everything I’ve read. The character creator sounds pretty great too… I When done right, I almost always spend way more time in character creators than I do actually playing the game.
Also, I’m a big Star Wars nerd and the idea of a good fighting game with lightsabers gives me a geekgasm.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 6:11PM
I forgot to mention I’m from OC Remix. The name is sinewav.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 7:30PM
I would love Soul Calibur IV for PS3 because I heard it was much better than Soul Calibur II, and I absolutely LOVED that game. Also, the theme song to Soul Calibur IV is amazing.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 8:16PM
Cool game. Played most in the series.
Wednesday, August 27, 2008 8:32PM
Two words. Online play. What better way to improve your skills than to place them against the better and the best. Then of course, achievements, the vastly improved character builder, Apprentice, and Yoda.

Hey, Joe Cam here. Remixer name is joe_cam because I’m incredibly original.
I would personally love to win a copy of Soul Calibur IV (either system, though 360 preferred) mainly because I want to get my hands on the game and play it. Why stoop to begging in a giveaway? Simple, actually. I’ve been unemployed since December, can’t get a job to save my life, recently married, and broke as hell. I can’t afford to buy it myself so I’m crossing my fingers that pity will secure me a copy. Yes, Soul Calibur may possibly distract me from my goals of acquiring a job, but really, if it’s not Soul Calibur it’ll be something else, so why not have a great fighting game to waste my life away with?
And honestly, the more I’m playing a game, the less I’m singing which is a good thing.
Anyways, here’s hoping I’m picked. I’m doing the whole hands and knees begging thing. I dont’ have an image of it, so I guess you gotta take my word for it. And if nothing else, I’m at least much more qualified to get this game for free than that guy below me. God… can you believe that crap? Why would they say that?
Thursday, August 28, 2008 12:25AM
Soul Calibur has had a brilliant musical score to complement the ruthless fighting, especially since Soul Calibur II. I’m interested to see how the fourth installment treats my aural senses.

yo my name is King James a.k.a. greenninjaturtle2379 and i love playing soul calibur, i would love to have it for my xbox360 i haven’t had the money to buy the game because of school, so it would be a wish come true if i got the game as a gift. i love to listen to the music on ocremix.org all the time and it never gets old. i tell my friends about the site all the time. i’m good at soul calibur i love creating my own ninja character and beating everyone up. my favorite character besides my created character would have to be cervantes. his dual swords let me rule any opponent who dares to face me. i want the game so badly please make my wish true

I’ve been a fan of the series since Dreamcast. I’m glad to see it continue onto next gen consoles. Plus, I’m a huge lightsaber nerd.
Thursday, August 28, 2008 9:40AM
I’d love to win a copy of Soul Calibur IV because I’ve been a fan since SCII, and It’s one of the few fighting games I play that have more than 1 or 2 fighters that i like which is awesome. I’d LOVE to be able to win this game because the next few months are gonna be torture with all the anticipated titles coming out and it’d be nice to save some money so I can get some of those anticipated titles.
Thursday, August 28, 2008 9:46AM

Played earlier version(s) of the game and loved it, but (somehow) never found places where I could buy them (I had been in Indonesia for a couple of years). Oh, and on OCR, I’m mindsystem.
Thursday, August 28, 2008 11:02AM
I’ve been at tourneys for SC2 and SC3, I love Soul Calibur and I play it with my friends almost every day I have off from work. Just wish I didn’t have to dedicate all my money to more important things or I’d have my own copy by now. :P
Thursday, August 28, 2008 11:35AM
My friends and I are poor college kids without the necessary funds to obtain Soul Calibur IV.
Thursday, August 28, 2008 1:55PM
I want to win a copy because I really enjoyed the first one way back when and it’s be cool to play thew new one
Thursday, August 28, 2008 4:56PM
Because the doctors say my phlebekpheugitis (a medical condition wherein a patient’s blood attempts to forcibly escape from his body, apparently out of fear) will be terminal unless I play six or more hours’ worth of Namco videogames per day, and, frankly, Rally X is starting to get a little boring.

I’m Sobou over on OC Remix. My reason for wanting to win a free copy of Soul Calibur IV? I don’t have any income to buy my own copy thanks to the accident I was involved in back in May that left me with a fractured back.
Can’t work and get cash for games when you can’t work, after all, so my 360 line-up of games has been without an awesome fighting game like Soul Calibur IV since before the accident and I hope to remedy that eventually. Whether by winning a copy or working in a few months, who knows.One can hope, however!

Hi, Heruwath Lomgil from OCR here.
I would like to win a free copy of Soul Calibur IV, because I have played Soul Calibur II and it was awesome,
because I have followed the stories of all of the characters through Soul Calibur III and want to see how they end,
because I am a college student and cannot easily afford to buy myself games,
because I have an XBox 360 and XBox Live, and all I really use them for is Halo3 now and then,
and because I have several friends who would want to play it with me.
Speaking of which, my Girlfriend and I had a blast on SC2, so I want to win so I can have a new shiny game to play with just the two of us sometimes too!
Also, I want to win a free copy of SC4 so that I can put my saved up money towards buying FLstudio instead (I’m still stuck on crappy madtracker2, not the best of remixing software).
And for crying out loud, who wouldn’t want a free copy of a game in which we have Ninja, and Pirates, AND Jedi?! It’s the perfect total set of badass!
I think that’s about it.
Heruwath Lomgil, signing out, and hoping!

bladed weapons + character creation = MEGA WIN!!!
Friday, August 29, 2008 8:47AM
I’d like to win the game because I’ve been looking forward to making custom characters and seeing how deep the costume options go. It made Dynasty Warriors 5 that much better when they (re)added custom characters in XL, and I’m quite sure this’ll add so much more to Soul Calibur.
That, and I don’t have enough money to buy it myself.

I’d like to win one of these copy’s cause a close friend of mine that has a very very limited game budget decided to buy me soul cal 4 for my birthday instead of getting it for him self and i want to repay his extreme kindness for thinking of me when i never asked for a gift only his friendship, this contest would be a perfect way in which to pay him back for his just unbelievable kindness so please give me this chance to repay such a close friend. Thank you for your time and considerations

Im Vanta from ocremix.org and i am the Numba 1 SC player. Played the game since Soul Blade :) , it would be nice to play the game especially with the new SC characters.

I love how the tenor of this commentcluster is slowly changing toward the normal methodology of this country: a sense of entitlement. “I deserve this because I am least able to afford it”.
The whole idea that anyone “deserves” a ‘free’ game is preposterous. Using your own lack of funds as valid reasoning for obtaining goods and services sounds WAYYY too much like welfare to me.
Even more hilarious is that at some point you purchased or obtained a ps3 or xbox360. And yet you are currently too destitute to afford a game? All these sob stories about injuries, injustices, and other maladies just make me hope these folks dont grow up to be a drain on my freaking tax dollars.

The Soul Calibur franchise is my favorite family of fighting games, period. It’ll be awesome to own with Vader on my PS3.
All hail Voldo!

Soul Calibur 4 definitely has one of the most polished fighting game systems I’ve played lately. And since this would be the first solid fighting game in a few years (barring Smash Bros, since it’s hard to really classify that as a fighter), it’s something that all gamers need to have. Plus getting it for free is doubly awesome. :D
Friday, August 29, 2008 10:19PM
I’ve been a fan of the series for about 8 years now. It’ll be great to be able to play the latest game in the series. My OC ReMix name is bouncerboy15.

SC4 has Yoda for 360 and Vader for PS3, how much more awesome can you get? Personally, I’m looking towards Yoda (also because I have a 360 and not a PS3 >_>). kittykar’s the name on OCR, since you guys asked.

I love the SC franchise and would use this giveaway as a opportunity to review and dwell over the musical score.
Saturday, August 30, 2008 9:32AM
I love the Soul Calibur franchise. My brother and I recently rented SC 4 for the Xbox 360 and we couldn’t get enough of it. We had a week of late fees until we had to return it!
Saturday, August 30, 2008 10:06AM
I want it b/c i have to find out what happens to my favorite character! =O
btw im Eclipse333 from Oc ReMix

I’d like to win a free copy because gaming these days has become so expensive. There are only a few games that I really HAVE to play and they are all on seperate systems that cost roughly $500 each.
Saturday, August 30, 2008 1:09PM
I already own and played Soul Calibur 1-3 and so far I have fun beating my friends. Soul Calibur 4 will be a great game for my friends to get beaten again, in this new installment. I would appreciate it, if I win this copy for my friends.
Saturday, August 30, 2008 3:40PM

I’ve been a huge fan of the Soul Calibur series since I picked up SC2 for the Gamecube (because of Link on the cover). I fell in love with the weapons based combat, and would love to play the latest installment of this franchise.
My OCR name is jivjov. =)

So I can play against my brother online.

I would love a copy of SC4 because i love the series, and just want the latest game in the series (don’t really have enough money to buy it at the moment!).
Also, my username on ocremix is Zombieforce. :)

I like fighting games, swords and star wars. If only there was a way combine them….

Dear GameCrave,
I deserve a free copy of Soul Calibur IV for one 2-part reason.
Part one: my friend constantly brags about how good he is at Soul Calibur IV. It’s driving me insane. I don’t have a lot of friends and he’s one of the small handful (and he lives in another state, unfortunately). I have to prove my gamer abilities to him while beating him at his favorite game at the same time. The awesome online experience of SCIV (or so I’ve heard from the aforementioned friend) on the Xbox 360 seems the best way to do it. I want to crush him totally and completely at this game after training for a month or so.
Part two: I am a poor college student. Sure, I’ll admit at first this reason seems lame and typical, but let me elaborate:
I don’t live on campus because I can’t afford the extra thousands of dollars for living costs (not to mention that I’m thousands in the hole for all the other costs). Since I don’t live in campus I miss out on all the best parts of being in college: playing video games, partying and doing both at the same time. I’m going to be paying loans for the next 20 years of my life to do extra work and to get a music theory (only sort of thing that I’m good at) degree that won’t get me a job. All the while I’m getting none of the awesome social experiences and friends for life in the process.
In summary, destroying my cocky friend at this game is the only thing I have to look forward to in my life. I can’t do it myself because I just spent the last of my dough on expensive college books and have to make a car payment on my hunk of junk so I can continue to commute to campus.
Please, GameCrave, I beg of you: bring some light into my virtually gameless and funless existence! Please send me a free copy of Soul Calibur IV! The immediate future of my gamer reputation is in your hands!

I’m Gollgagh and I like free stuff.
(also gollgagh at OCR)
Sunday, August 31, 2008 10:23PM
Soul Caliber IV is very interesting. I would like to be able to customize my own character and see them in action! Good luck to everyone entering! I hope to win! :D
Monday, September 1, 2008 8:58AM
Sorry, GearCrave*!
Also I’m TEM on the ocremix forums.
Monday, September 1, 2008 3:25PM
I want to win Soul Calibur IV because I have been a fan of the series for quite some time but I’m a poor college student who can’t afford to buy her games. :( Sad day! :P

Another OCR member here (member name is the same as I have here). Why do I want to win a copy of this game? Simple, really. It’s Soul Calibur, and it’s free. What’s not to love in that equation?
Monday, September 1, 2008 9:25PM
The lineage of Soul Calibur is something that’s hard to overlook. It is still to date one of the the best looking fighting game series. Unlike many of it’s brethren titles it’s the only one I know of that focuses on weapon combat instead of hand fighting, which is a major reason that I truly love the series.
Additionally it has an amazing host of characters to chose from. Not only is each one different and refined in their own personal way but they also use an entirely different set of weapons, that bring their own amazing shine to what you would call a menagerie of a cast.
I want to see, hear, and experience the amazing level of design which is Soul Calibur IV, from what I’ve seen it is a prime example of beauty in motion.
My name is linkthe1st on the OC Remix forums.

I have played the my brothers Soul Calibur games and it is funny when I beat him in front of his friends. I have never been a videogame fan but so far I like this game because of its graphics and awesome moves.

Looking forward to seeing who’s gonna win!

Hmm well, I’d like to win a copy cuz I never win anything. T.T
Alright, alright not only cuz of that… I actually only have one game for my Xbox 360, and after a while Halo 3 (despite it’s amazing graphics, and decent story-line) can get quite boring.
I loved SC3 as well. Especially the Gamecube version I have with Link! <3
Heck, I still play it on my Wii! :D
Also, I am in love with all of the separate story-lines each character has in the game. It takes fighting games to a new level, and lets you know who the background of who your playing with. So now you’re not just playing with them because of how they look or sound. You’re playing with them because you are sympathizing with their situation, or you just love why they’re in the game in the first place.
Another thing I must add to this is that I drive. And well, gas these days is not cheap by any means. Especially if you’re 16, looking for a job, and have to pay for yourself! I don’t have the money to buy new games anymore. So this would be really nice! It’ll pull me out of my gaming depression and I won’t have to spend my gas money! :)
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 6:00PM
I want a copy because…I do…and because it’s clearly past the entry deadline and that’d make me getting one 8x cooler…
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 9:15PM
Where do they post the winners?
Tuesday, September 9, 2008 7:50PM
I would like to play my cousin in this online - - like we used to when we lived closer…
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 7:34AM

Sunday, October 19, 2008 1:10PM
My son is a gaming junkie and this would make a great gift.
Tuesday, November 11, 2008 10:32PM
I would like this game because it is the coolest and funnest fighting game there is.
