Soul Caliber III E3 Preshow Hands-On
Gamespot has a look at Soul Caliber III in anticipation of next week's E3. From the article: "Besides the tale of souls mode, your single-player options will include 'chronicle of the sword,' world competition, soul arena, museum, and character creation. Character creation is the mode we're most excited for, because it lets you create an original fighter you can then take to the chronicle of the sword mode to see how he or she fares."
Oh and what is with this ps2 exclusive deal?
Yeah, that's pretty lame if you ask me. I thought SC and SC2 were the best fighting games ever and I'm sure SC3 will kick ass too, but it won't be worth buying a PS2 over.
The only game I'd consider buying a system for is Perfect Dark 0, but that doesn't look like it'll be out until X-Box 2, so I'm glad I never bought an X-Box.
Well, I guess I'd buy a system for any Zelda game, but I'm pretty much a Nintendo fanboy, so I'd be buying the system anyways.
I wonder if Namco thinks they will make more profit by releasing it on only one system. Sure the development time would be reduced some, and they'll probably get some perks from sony, but it seems like they'll be missing out on a large portion of sales.
I wouldn't be surprised if a GC and X-Box version end up coming out several months after the PS2 version though. It's happened before in the video game industry.
