Blades of Fury brings high-'calibur' fighting to iPhone

Sure, new iPods and iTunes and whatever are great, but the best Apple platform news for us this week is the release of Gameloft's Blades of Fury. Between the voice acting, the idea of playing a 3D fighter on iPhone, and, well, Gameloft's willingness to openly and unashamedly rip off Soul Calibur, this is one of the most entertaining iPhone releases yet, and we haven't even played the thing (which Touch Arcade says is actually pretty good). You're going to enjoy the trailer after the break.

In fact, the only way to approach Blades of Fury as anything other than just a Soul Calibur clone is to believe that Gameloft released it this week as an homage to Soul Calibur, ten years after the Dreamcast release.
