Review: Soul Calibur for iPhone

The last time I played Soul Calibur was on the Dream Cast gaming console, so you might say its been awhile. You can imagine my surprise, when the game suddenly appears on the app store. Joining the already crowded field of fighting games like Street fighter, Infinity Blade and even Fight Night Champion on the iPhone and other iOS devices, Soul Calibur is a welcome treat for nostalgic reasons.

It's A Small World App

Children of all ages and even adults will enjoy Disney's It's a Small World app for it's amazing interactivity and overall appeal.  While this digital version is no substitute for the actual Disneyland attraction, think of it as a great alternative than not being able to experience it in person. The app immerses the viewer with the same foreign locales and cheerful presentation as you head off on the same journey like on the actual ride.

Kids will the enjoy the sing-a-long feature and the interaction as the screen becomes a virtual global playground while learning new cultures and discovering new places.  Touch anywhere on the screen within the different cities and environments and something fun will happen.  The overall message that it's a small world, shines through.
