[quote name='SDC']I'm interested, but I fear it might be a little awkward playing a fighting game on a PSP. Does anyone have any experience?[/QUOTE]
It plays terrific on every model of the PSP EXCEPT the original (aka. PSP-1000) because of the sunked d-pad.
Just a "buyer beware": while this game looks pretty and plays perfectly, it's the most stripped-down version of Soul Calibur ever. You get the standard fighting game modes (arcade, practice, survival, etc.), the character creator from Soul Calibur IV, playable Kratos, and that's it. With no online play, no ghost battles, and not even any of the extra modes the series is known for, I'd pass on this unless you're a hardcore fan.
It's basically a portable means of practicing your skills before playing one of its big brothers on the 360 or PS3
