Soul Calibur II for Xbox

Pros: Complex fighting engine.
Cons: It's not the evolutionary jump forward I'd hoped it would be.

Until recently, if you asked me what the greatest fighting game of this console generation was, I wouldn’t hesitate a second before answering Soul Calibur. Namco’s weapon-based fighter was a launch title on the ill-fated Sega Dreamcast, and it still stand ...

Pros: great graphics, awesome gameplay, 200+ weapons, lots of modes, very addicting
Cons: poor translations at times

Soul Calibur, the original game, was released a few years ago for the Dreamcast. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to play it as I only played the Dreamcast a few times. Before the sequel was released, there was a lot of hype that Soul Calibur II will b ...

Pros: It's good Soul Calibur goodness.
Cons: Stupid English bs.

God bless the Sega Dreamcast and may it rest in peace. From the moment I first turned on my original Dreamcast, I knew I was holding onto something special. Sure, it was ahead of its time by a year or so, but the quality of games produced by Sega were j ...

Pros: A super addictive fighting/role playing with loads of features including SPAWN!
Cons: We don't get Link in this version.

SOUL CALIBUR II (Namco, August 26, 2003) No more hype, no more demos, no more looking at still pictures, Soul Calibur II is finally here! The original Soul Calibur won very high acclaim and it sure helped to sell a lot of Dreamcast ...

Pros: Amazing graphics, in-depth gameplay, many modes of play.
Cons: Not every character has a third costume, some characters share arenas.

While actually the third in a line of weapon-based fighting games by Namco, Soul Calibur II is an excellent follow-up to its predecessors. The first game in the series, Soul Blade, was released on the Playstation and featured many of the same characters ...

Pros: Still the best fighting engine out there, virtually zero load times
Cons: Ultimately not a whole lot more than an update to the original

Soul Calibur 1 was the reason I bought a Dreamcast. I had no interest in the machine until a 30 minute play session at a local Gamestop. That was enough to get me to buy the system and 2 $50 arcade sticks to go along with it. To this day I think I've...

Pros: Lots of unlockable features, addictive gameplay, excellent graphics; a "bigger" version of its predecessor.
Cons: No drastic improvements to gameplay; Xbox controller not the best choice for this game

Soul Calibur 2 is the long-awaited sequel to one of the best fighting games ever made. However, the game does little to improve its basic design. Despite that, fans of the series will still find plenty of new and extra features to like. The game is a ...

Pros: *see review*
Cons: *see review*

Intro I was one of the idiots a couple years ago when the Sega Dreamcast came out because before I even heard about the Dreamcast I bought one and I regretted it. It was a failing system and you can now buy it for like 20 bucks when it costed 500 ...

Pros: graphics, gameplay, replay value, characters, unlockables, boobs
Cons: gets repetetive, very annoying at times, bah

Soul Calibur 2 is definately one of the greatest fighting style games on the Xbox system. With a variety of about 7 weapons per character, and having a bunch of characters along with several outfits to chose from really brings out the fun in this title. ...

Pros: Graphics!, short learning curves, and did I mention Graphics?
Cons: Nerve killer and annoying music after 2 hrs :)

I'm not really a beat-em-up player by normal. My friend got SC2 for his birthday and I dropped by just to look. One fight, and I was hooked. Story: Okay, I'll be honest. The story here is a bit thin at first, but once you know more about characters an ...

Pros: Weapons Master Mode, Character Variety, Tight and Responsive Controls
Cons: No Xbox Live, Too Difficult in Spots, Too Easy in Other Spots

(as written, by me, at joychix.com) ‘Well, this seems to be a regular, typical, run of the mill fighter.’ was what I first said when I played the game’s Arcade mode. After playing the ‘Weapon master’ mode, my song quickly changed ...

Pros: Graphics, characters, weapons, arenas, play modes, etc...
Cons: Nothing really...

Oh my god, ths game is awesome. I am not a big fighting game fan but this is one of the best games I have ever played. The graphics are almost flawless, the gameplay is exciting and envigorating, and the character development is wonderful.
I love the characters in this game. Rapheal with his dancing in the weapon demonstration, Talim with her kick a** wind power, Necrid with his energy weapon things, and of course the move stealing Charade.
This game gives you so many things to do after you start unlocking the secret weapons and games in Weapon Master Mode. Im almost finished with it but I cant beat one little area in the WM oh well I will keep playing till I do.
Twist!
