sweet, im pretty big on the sc series, and these screens have me pretty excited. Regarding character design, I have to say that ivy's boobs are ridiculously big, but seigfried's lookin like a badass, even if the only shot of him is from the back.
They need to back the fuck off on the tits, Ivy's are just too stupid. I mean, i like some nice breasts... but there is a point where you cross the line between a character with large breasts and being obscenely massive.
That Fresnel shader is a little much in spots.
Moose, can you ever back off on tits:), I always have a tendancy to move towards them:) haha. Yeah they are kinda large, and not sure if you guys remember but in soul calibur for the dreamcast, there was an adult age setting that you could put into your vma and the girls boobs would bounce more. I think if you put your age at 99 they just constantly went up and down. Might not have been Soul Calibur, could have been DOA but was one of them.
Holy backlighting batman. They're freaking glowing in the last two screens. Daz is gonna have a fit. Looks ridiculous on those backgrounds.
Still better than Tekken, though.
Anyone read the site, there?

The level of detail in the graphics includes "leather straps on Ivy's thighs make real-time indentations into her skin as she fights," and even "ridiculously endowed ninja gal Taki, who demonstrates what happens now that consoles can chum out superflucous polygons to render realistic nipples under a skintight leotard."
It does not look any better then the dreamcast version to me other then things glow to much ...I'll have to wait and watch a video to really make a call on the graphics
I'm not a great fan of the velvety look of the shaders on pretty much everything (characterwise), but it looks to be quite pretty regardless. These screenshots aren't much to go off, though, so i'm looking forward to seeing some better ones. Or better yet, to just play it.
Mcilroy: try to ease up on the drama, would you?
It seems there are more and more people who can't express themselves without exaggerating like there's no tommorow.
I'll make a point of slagging off metal gear solid in the next thread by comparing it to Metal Gear.
I'll agree that the screenshots are hard to go by, though.
Can't wait, it look amazing, I want to see it in motion. I can't imagine how takis tits will fly about in the intro this time, but I don't have a problem with Ivys boobs (one of the main reasons I want to see it in motion.. I'm curious how those... work..), but if they got any bigger it would just be like OMFGGG
dont get me wrong, if ivy's boobs become part of her attacks, ill be all for it... and then some.

hehe now that's an idea..
Hrm the fresnel does look a bit much, but i've always enjoyed soul calibur with their crazy costume designs and plethora of fluid moves, so I'm sure it'll deliver that in spades..
By the way, who the hell scanned those pictures? They aren't even resampled and they are way oversaturated. It is almost as if they were trying to make it look like shit
EGX: man.. I can actually see that look being fun for an art game.
I'll also throw my hat in the ring of Ivy's boobs going overboard. I dig Ivy as a character and weapon fighting style, but dear lord, put the sexy back.
Ivy is the dominatrix, and while her bust size is a little silly, its more or less in character. Its no where near as stupid as what they did with Taki who looked like the sort of girl who could leap around without being thrown off balance by flacid meat a few versions back. Anyway, whatever. As long as they don't try to inflate Seung Mina, I'll be happy.
My prediction: In SC5 it is revealed that those are not breasts on Ivy at all, but rather egg sacs for the new characters they are introducing. That Ivy is in fact Voldo's twin brother.
Taki's outfit looks like fine fur on that one crotch shot. A little T&A never hurts anyone in a soul caliber game. Maybe I just don't care as much since I probably won't play the game till it hits the bargain bin in 3 or 4 years.
Hito: yeah it could be fur, or perhaps a silk of some sort given her origins, but it really looks like lycra or something.
And why is Seigfried's armor transparent?

Thing i don't like is the back lighting it just bugs me.

the most exciting part? what appears to be a dodo bird on the third screenshot down on the left. hopefully it's a new character.

I saw that too, and am confused. I suppose the Dodo is still alive while this game takes place.

Sure, because NO woman could ever have tits that big that wasn't a pornstar. NO WAI.

Given what little clothes she's wearing i'd say that it was a valid comparison.

This game should stop beating around the bush and have small nude girls battling large armored men, as god intended.
What type of fabric tightly forms to cleavage and belly buttons like this?
