Personal Review: Soul Calibur 2
Now in its third incarnation, Namco's Soul series of fighting games
continues to set new standards for the genre. Soul Calibur II, while not
making as dramatic a leap in visuals and technology as seen between the
first two games, is still holding its place as the definitive 3D fighter. Sega's
Virtua Fighter 4 offers some solid competition, but Calibur's implementation
of weapons combat and plethora of gameplay modes gives it the edge.
Each of the Soul games has originated in the arcades, and every time
they're ported to home consoles, Namco includes enough new features to
justify a purchase even by someone who has already spent $50 in
quarters. In Soul Calibur II, we see the return of the sorely missed Weapon
Master Mode. For those newly introduced to the series, the weapon master
mode sends the player through a lengthy series of challenges, testing not
only their ability to best their opponent in combat, but to do so while

2. overcoming adverse conditions. For example, the enemy may be given a
boost in speed, or you may be able to win the fight only by knocking them
out of the ring. While this may seem frivolous, it truly gauges the player's
mastery of the many different aspects of gameplay.
Another key addition to the home versions of SC2 is multiple bonus
characters. Returning from the first two games are Sophitia, Seung Mina,
Lizardman, and end boss Inferno, joined by Necrid, Berserker, and
Assassin. Also, exclusive to each version of the game is a cameo
character from another franchise. Tekken's Heihachi joins the PS2 cast,
Todd McFarlane's Spawn appears in on Xbox, and the legendary Link of
Zelda fame completes the Gamecube roster. In this respect, the
Gamecube received the better deal, as Link is easily one of the best (and
cheapest) characters in the game. Meanwhile, PS2 wins in the controls
department, beating both the awkward Gamecube and oversized Xbox
pads. Lastly, Xbox has a slight advantage in terms of graphics. Whatever
version you choose, however, you're in for a spectacular experience, as
Namco again proves to be the master of 3D fighter design.
