Soul Calibur 2

[Sub0]

The console versions of Soul Calibur 2 have been unveiled by Namco. Among the surprises (well, not so surprising but was supposedly "denied" recently) is that each console version gets their own special secret character that can't be found in any other version.

The GameCube version sports none other than Link.
The PS2 gets Heihachi, from Tekken.
XBOX, the comic book character Spawn.

Also, all version get an additional character, Necrid.

Spawn?!?! Spawns cool but if ya got link than you need like Master Cheif (or Munch) for Xbox... Ps2 I could care less about but...

since McFarlane agreed to put Necrid into the game... he probably set up the agreement to put Spawn in for Xbox.. since Master Chief isn't exactly the epitomy of what people were like in Soul Calibur's timeframe..

Link fits REALLY well, although his design screams for a sophia clone (but the fact that he is shown with a bow and arrow and a boomerang mean he might have a unique set of moves or just a few specials) Mishima is a disappointment, only because he's already in a fighting game.. they could have put someone who wasn't in a fighting game in there, to make it more appealing..

Spawn is the most pleasent surprise for me, and Spawn with an Axe? thats all I need xbox version for me...

They should have used Medievil Spawn

yeh lol MC would look abit weird ;-p ps2 got played (Namco char ehehe) but if they put a Panda in Tekken they can put Munch in SC2... I be really happy bout Spawn too but Link is a HUGE part of GC why can't they just do the same with the other.... others.... (would be cool if his design had EMBM and other stuffs that Xbox uses that the others don't... hehehe)

Hey your right!!

But ps2 still got played(ps2 has already had 2 tekken games.. why would they need a character with no weapon anyway.. )

[Roke]

Yeah, but I just don't like Spawn. I'd still rather go with the GC version, (And that's mostly because I own only a GC.) Even if I had a PS2 I still wouldn't want it.

But you're right. It looks like it'll be mostly sales for Xbox and GC versions! (Primarily Xbox, but we'll see how it goes!)

[kilik^]

yeah! awsome soul calibur on xbox, the best fighting game ever!, But spawn? it would be better if heichachi was on xbox instead of spawn .

so when is the official release of the game in the US? (if it havent been released yet).

never say that ;-p lol bet it'll be PS2, Xbox, GC. EGM said 3rd party GC games sell like Xbox games in Japan.
