Could have been a good game, but no where near as fun as the previous Installation in the series. Go get SC4, its better

Big fan of the soul series, played everyone in it so far, but this one really doesn't work for me. The story forces you to play with awful characters who are annoying (to play with and personality), and is fairly meh, ignores alot of the established characters, doesn't do a very good job of introducing the new ones bar two. There is limited other single player content, and instead of making the computer better at high levels like in previous games, all they have done to boost difficulty for this is make it faster and cheat. The character creation is improved over the previous games, with it simple, straight forward, and quite a few options for most of the equipment slots. However, it sometimes doesn't allow some mixes for some reason, and could really do with showing all possible options, and what you need to do to unlock the ones you can't currently use. Online play is pretty good though, and seems to be pretty good at matching up users for good connections, and on skill level.
