Given the jaw-to-the-floor presentation of last year's Soulcalibur IV, it seemed unlikely a portable version of the weapons-based brawler would be able to match the gameplay or visuals of that polished production. But I'll be damned to an eternity on the receiving end of a Soul Crush if Broken Destiny didn't continually sting my senses with the gameplay depth and graphical power of a console-quality experience.
Assassin's Creed's Ezio and The Witcher's Geralt have been excellent guest characters in the Soul Calibur series.

I've done various series on the subject. However, most of the time, the games mentioned in these articles are from wholly new or overlooked franchises themselves.
There are also a multitude of series that I can think of that have one, two, or a handful of games in it that aren't viewed as highly as the others, whether just or not.
These ideas are where the concept of All-Star Franchises, Underrated Entries comes from, and since our 13th edition, I've come up with six more underrated entries to big-time franchises, some bigger than others."
Carl Williams writes, "In video games, we don’t see too many crossover events. It is probably due to the fact that video game companies are quite litigious with each other. That is a shame, though, as it would be interesting to see more gaming crossover events that are not Super Smash Bros or a Capcom and SNK fighting game. While it was a little bit of work, we have tracked down five awesome gaming crossovers that you have forgotten about."
