Description

The unholy sword was sealed by the destined one, but a mysterious individual revives the azure knight, Nightmare. The legendary battle of Soul Calibur and Soul Edge moves to the next phase. Which sword will ultimately prevail? What is the motivation of the three new souls who join the fray? And how will you, the player, become involved in the world of Soul Calibur?

Play as one of your favorite classic characters to follow how their fate unfolds in the Tales of Souls mode. Battle it out against your friends in the Vs. Standard mode. Create your own original character to play in the Character Creation mode. Rise in the ranks in the World Competition mode... Play it any way you want. Get ready for the latest installment of the most dramatic weapon-based fighting franchise on the PlayStation®2.

Customizable characters: Create your own character after you or the ideal warrior you've always wanted to be. Choose the sex, occupation, look and even a weapon for your own original character.

Your original character is the star: The Chronicles of the Sword mode allows your original customized character to play through a mode much like real-time simulation - you can see your own character in the battles that unfold.

3 Brand new characters! Zasalamel, Tira and Setsuka wield their specialty weapons to join the classic cast for a total of over 25 characters.

More stages than before: Battle it out in more stages than ever, from a castle in Germany to a shrine in Greece, or even at the top of a clock tower.

...and more! Get ready for the battles by training in the Practice mode; enjoy unique battles in Soul Arena mode; view the history of the franchise and everything you've unlocked in Museum mode - the variety of modes will keep you playing!

"Crazy"

I won this game at tourney, playing ssbm, for the GC. (silly really =P) afterwards, we tried it out at a mates, he was raving a bout it (we didnt really want to play, but we gave in.)

I beat him by LITERALLY chewing the controller.

Just another way to prove that this is a button masher.

"One of the best fighting game"

This game is an absolute gem. The graphic is awesome, the fighting is smooth. There are loads of extras (bonus characters, artworks, demonstration, weapons�) to unlock. The fighting system has been tweaked and improved a bit. This means that some moves will not be the same as the previous game. However, it doesn�t take long to get used to the game. Also, Create a Soul mode let you create your own characters, choose their weapons (which will be different from the main characters) and use them in a selections of game modes.

The only flaw in this game is the bad voice acting for some characters. But that doesn�t matter because you can change the voice from English to Japanese XD. SC3 isn�t slower than SC2, the graphic on SC3 is better than on SC2, and there is no XBOX version of this game. The movelist has been improved, NOT HALVED!!!

So, if you loved SC1 &SC2 and you haven�t got this game, you�re stupid. If you�re new to the series, give it a try, I guarantee you will love this game.

"Why, dear God, why?"

I'm hoping that it's some kind of elaborate practical joke, and that they're actually going to ship me the real game next week, and laugh at me.

If not, well, if you loved Soul Calibur I & II, do yourself a favour, and stab yourself in the eyeball rather than play this.

It's slower, the graphics are worse (than the xbox version), and the movelists have been halved.

I'm absolutely gutted.
