Video: Soulcalibur XBLA Gameplay Footage

Wondering how well Soulcalibur will make the transition from the Dreamcast to Microsoft’s downloadable Xbox Live Arcade service? If this video is any indication, things look grim.

I realize size limitations force Namco’s classic fighter to take a hit in the graphics department, and maybe I’m recalling the original version with rose-tinted glasses, but did this game always look so muted and dull?

The good news is that the gameplay seems to be intact. I can forgive almost any aesthetic issues as long as Taki still moves as gracefully as she should.
