It sounds like its coming along good.  Strangly enough they didn\'t sound to impress with the graphics?  Overall it sound similar to SC1 but only better which is a good thing.  Thoughts?

If it\'s better than Soul Calibur 1, then it\'s going to be a killer fighter no matter how you look at it. It\'ll probly smack down both VF4 AND Tekken 4.

This is on the arcade board. I am not all that concerned. Does anyone else remember how tekken tag looked in the arcade? If the gameplay is spot on as they say. Then I have full confidence when it hits the home systems things will be up to snuff.




Btw the exception to the rule being virtua fighter is not a good example. That was sega with unfamiliar tools for the ps2, and a rushed schedule. I am positive if they had 6 months more. They would have accomplished a better than arcade translation. Esp since suzuki said that they were rushed with a 6 month deadline.

What makes Soul Calibur unique is it\'s models and the fact that it isn\'t a button mashing game. Certain moves require a sequence of moves or buttons.

But screens like these make wood... :eek:

you can bash is pretty every game, but games such as Doa3 & certain capcom games make is hella easier

SC isn\'t very deep IMO, fighting sytem is not my type and there isn\'t as much to learn as in VF & SF3
