The Soul Still Burns

1up.com has up an in-depth preview of the PS2 exclusive Soul Caliber 3. From the article: "... Yotoriyama and team Calibur's latest effort -- a true PS2 exclusive set for release this fall -- will be packed with gameplay modes (we'll get to those later) designed to entice all types of newcomers. 'We developed [Soul Calibur III] with features that will appeal to a variety of consumers in order to get them to pick up the game and experience that great gameplay. That goal hasn't changed since we developed the first Soul Calibur [on Dreamcast].' On the gameplay side, not a whole lot has changed either -- which, for many Soul devotees, is a good thing."

  1. Modded Overrated by sesshomaru · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    When I heard that SC3 was going to be a PS2 exclusive, my immediate thought was that Sony put the screws to Namco over the fact that they got the worst of the three extra characters. XBox got Spawn, Gamecube got Link and PS2 got Heihachi Mishima. Now, I like Heihachi fine, but the fact is he just doesn't have the pizzazz of the other two.
    Hmm, that got modded "overrated" so it wouldn't be metamodded, I still think it is a valid point though.
