Soul Calibur II Sparks Subdued Joy

Thanks to GameSpy for their (similar, and in descending score order) Xbox, Gamecube, and PlayStation 2 reviews of the newly-released Soul Calibur II, plus a detailed Soul Calibur II: Pile-On! article, where-in "...a battle royale of GameSpy's biggest SCII fans pick apart a hit." Opinions? One editor suggests: "It's a fabulous game, but the original Soul Calibur wasn't just an excellent game: it started a new age for fighters. On the other hand, SCII - no matter how good it is - is just an incremental upgrade, a fairly routine fighter sequel."

  1. Triforce, that is 3 of sufficent force by August_zero · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I ver played all 3 versions at least a little bit, and honestly they are all pretty solid, the cube and x-box versions were neck and neck graphicly, and the PS2 version trailed a little bit in that respect but I don't think anyone is going to be disappointed.

    For me, the choice came down to the bonus character I wanted, and I choose Link. Spawn I could care less about only if it were possible to medically remove my ability to care, and Heihachi or whatever his name is seemed cool, but not as cool as our Pajamma wearing Elf friend.

    Hope you all have the next week off work, your going to need it....

    On Wall Street they say "buy low, sell high" On the pad we say, "buy high, sell high" Isn't that somehow better?
