SoulBlade, is perhaps one of the greatest fighting games with it's variety of moves and weapon usage systems. The Edge Master Mode makes the game playable for a long time, unlike other fighting games. The CG Animations and soundtrack are incredible.
ITS GREAT!

This is the best fighting game I ever played next to Tekken 3. It rules, especially the opening cinema.
Soul Blade Beats Up Other Fighting Games.

If you had to choose just one fighting game to buy out of all the others, Soul Blade should be it. It has everything you could want in a fighter: jaw-dropping graphics and animation, cool moves, and many different play modes. The different modes of play add a lot of replay value to Soul Blade, and makes you want to keep playing it. The Edge Master Mode actually adds a story to the game for each character, unlike games like Tekken 3. But one of the most innovative things about this game is the different character endings. Each character has 3 different endings, making you want to keep playing it to find out the whole story. The only problem in this game is that the computer always seems to have the upper hand if you both do moves at the same time. But all this for $20! What more could you want? If you like fighting games be sure to pick this one up.
One of the best fighters of all time

Excellent graphics, superb sound track, easy control. What else can I say? From the makers of Tekken comes Soul Blade. Instead of martial arts, this game features weapons. It is superior to the ToShinDen series and rivals the Tekken series.
Although this game is a few years old, it is still one of the best fighting games. Not only will you have hours of enjoyment with your friends, but you will also play single player to get the two secret characters. But more importantly: EDGE MASTER MODE. This story mode enables you to get better weapons than your standard one. You have to win battles with certain stipulations: such as only throwing your oponent, killing 6 in a row, low energy, ring out, etc. This is a very challenging mode, but the rewards are fantastic.
This soundtrack is one of the best for any fighting game. It ranges from classical music to a techno feel to neo-Japanese. The sound effects are top-notch. You can hear sword hit sword or knunchucks hit axes.
The characters have personalities. You can choose from a goddess to a ninja to a barbarian.
If you want hours of enjoyment from a superior game on the PlayStation I would recommend this game. The only drawback- I mean ONLY drawback is that there are only 10 characters to choose from. In this day and age, there are around 20 or 30 characters in fighting games. Other than that, GET THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!
Hack your mates up with swords then laugh at them

This, along with Tekken 3 make the very best fighting games ever produced, forget all that Virtua Fighter and Bushido Blade rubbish, this is where its at, all of teh grace of Tekken, minus the ridiculous weightlessness of the always disappointing Mortal Kombat series. If you like games with weapons, where you can collect more and do all kinds of cool things including Story Mode, Survival, Time, Team modes, it's all wicked and you should buy it.
The Best Ever!

Hey! I'm a girl and I love this game! The only one I've seen better is the new Soulcalibre for Dreamscape! I love the action, the characters are aewsome, and the moves-WOW! The Edgemaster mode is cool, because you can win more weapons for the characters while leaning more about their history. My 2 fav characters are Mitsurugi and Seigfried (sp?) anyway! The intro movie is awesome. I love the song and the shots of Mitsurugi. If you haven't played this game yet, try it! It is The Best!
Great Game, Great Graphics

Compaired with games of simular weight (Tekken 2, Tekken 3, Bushido Blade 2) This game ranks #1 in my book. The graphics are great and looks almost EXACTLY like Soul Edge (the arcade version of this game). Although I beat this game rather quickly, the game has loads of replayability with the Edge Master mode (search for the ultimate weapon for your character and use it in other modes), Player Vs. Player modes, Survival Mode (goal is to not get hurt and to see how many fights you can win), and Team Play Mode (play as a team against the CPU, when you are beaten your team mate takes over).
An added plus for younger people is that no blood or gore is in this game. So if you are a concerned parent, that prohibits such things from your youngster, this game offers a fighting genre without blood, guts and gore or death (says "Knockout" when you are beaten or win).
Bottem line, this game is a classic and warrents a place on any gamer's shelf that enjoys a good fighting game.
Great Fighting Game -- No blood or gore.

I am a concerned and involved mother of 3. I was VERY pleased to have found a game that has a good "battling" scenerio with all the action, great graphics, and variety of characters, weapons, and moves that Soul Blade has -- without the street-violence, blood, gore, and death. This is set up like a competition, in a ring, not on the streets. The whole family LOVES playing this game! We all have our fave players, fave battling weapons. I strongly approve of this game, for even my youngest Playstation player.
A REALLY GOOD GAME

A GOOD AMOUNT OF CHARACTERS LIKE SUENG MINA, ROCK, AND HUANG. PEOPLE CAN WIN WEAPONS IN A RPG TYPE GAME AND TRANSPORT THEM TO THE V.S. MODE.
The BEST fighting game

I absolutly love this game. It has many characters, a great plot(which is rare for a fighting game) and many different modes for a great re-play value. I have played this game many times and I never get tired of it thanks to the fact that game is different everytime you play depending on which caracter you choose. A MUST buy.
