- 3 confirmed new characters
- create-a-fighter mode
- PS2 exclusive (let's hope this changes)
- release: late 2005

Funny how it's exclusive when the GC version of SCII sold best in the US.

    Worthless.
    If it's for one console, they'd better be SEXIER.
    Two, a little bit better.
    All three, ok. Just as.

    Since when was Soul Calibur 2 a "big disappointment?" I do like the look of that new character in the green, though.

    Images of Taki (even those cardboard promotional ones in game stores!) amused me for two very prominent reasons.

    Anyway, Seung Mina's clearly the best.

    Oh, in terms of actual gameplay, I'll just spam it up with Siegfried / Nightmare.

    Personally, I'd say that having the single-platform is a strength... the game coders can focus on optimizing for the PS2, making it run fast and clean. As opposed to a number of other games that ended up generally sucking, as their marketing VP demanded that they go multiplatform to rake in even more greed-money.

    Besides, the PS2 still has the largest installed userbase. <a href='http://articles.filefront.com/Xbox_PS2_Owners_More_Different_Than_Most_Realize/;578;;;/article.html' target='_blank'>Over four times as many own a PS2,</a> compared to xbox.

    Exclusive has since lost it's meaning to me ever since RE4 was announced for PS2.

    Edit: I just read somewhere that Sony bought exclusive rights to SCIII, so I don't think we'll be seeing any versions for other consoles.

    I'm going to freak people out with Voldo, or failing that its back to kicking people senseless with good old Nightmare.



    Does this mean I have to all the way back to square one for practicing Ivy? And I was getting competent at her too.. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Looks like it's time to pull out the big damn sword again as Nightmare and then smash some people as Astaroth. I just hope Nightmare is still in SC3. The scythe-guy looks pretty interesting, though. But I figured that most guys using a scythe, like Time, would wear blac-.... Ohhhh now that's how it is, is it, Namco? I thought you were above that level!

    But in any case, glad to see they're at least making one. I just hope the Create-A-Fighter kicks major arse. Create-a-Fighter is what made Def Jam: Fight for NY so good. I just hope it has as many features in SC3 as Def Jam had.

    Yes.
    This is why I hate the PS2. And I don't have any consoles anymore :(

    ^^

    This is the game which everyone who buys Soul Calibre games REALLY wants. Sadly I must include myself in that statement.

    I always find it hilariously stupid that women wear heavy platemail armour...that only covers their breasts and BARELY their genitals. Talk about defeating the point. Just put them in cloth and get it over with.

    Muahahahah. None of you fools will be able to stand up to my incredibly annoying strategy of doom! Fight as Link and roll around insanely, with a sword slash every half hour!

    Yeah. That's right. My GameCube version is far superior to your other SCII versions. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    That said, Nightmare the best non-Link character. While you're busy staring at Sophitia's knockers, I'll have a sword the size of Alaska down your throat.
