![]() I used to stand and watch others battle at the arcade just because it was like watching a cool interactive kung-fu cartoon. I d on't know how it compared to Street Fighter as it was never one of my favorites to play, but I do like it much more than the early MORTAL KOMBAT titles and it's much more fun to watch visually speaking than either of the other two. ![]() It was challenging and fun (and hard enough to be frustrating at times, too) and provided many hours of entertainment before we unlocked everything and still fun to play even afterwards. Plus a story mode for unlocking more custom weapon options to take your favorite character to the peak of their power. It doesn't have the create-your-own fighter features that were available in SCIII but it has great graphics (2d) and weapons. If you liked that, you'll like this as well. Pretty much exactly the same thing as what was in the arcades, but without the need to continually feed it quarters or tokens and with extra options for single player entertainment besides pounding on your friends. Its a sequel (II) fighting game with weapon effects specific to characters selected. Time Attack challenges players to defeat opponents in record time, while Practice helps players familiarize themselves with the various moves characters can perform. Arcade is based on the 2002 coin-op game, Versus has players battling a friend, Survival is a test of endurance against a steady flow of enemies, and Team Battle involves pitting two groups of characters against one another. Once new weapons are acquired, ranging from battle-axes and swords to staves and spears, they can be used in other modes of play. Players engage rival fighters while advancing across a world map and must satisfy specific conditions to win, such as performing a combo attack, defensive move, or throwing an enemy off a platform. Seven modes include Arcade, Versus, Survival, Team Battle, Time Attack, Practice, and Weapon Master, which offers players a chance to collect over 200 weapons while fulfilling a character's distinct storyline. The few who survived plan on battling for the enchanted weapon once more, some to destroy it, some to harness its power for their own gain. ![]() ![]() Worse yet, illness and strange happenings have befallen those who once fought for control of the evil blade. Transformed into an entity called Nightmare, the once noble knight is rumored to have caused widespread death and destruction throughout the latter half of the 16th century. Infecting anyone who wields it with a lust for power and domination, the sword had most recently found its way into young Siegfried's inexperienced grip. The story begins as the mysterious and powerful Soul Edge makes its presence known to the world. In addition to a retooled 3D engine featuring eight-way directional movement, a lineup of ten new characters has entered the fray, including Cassandra, Sophitia's younger sister, Necrid, a character designed by comic book artist Todd McFarlane, and Namco's own Heihachi from the Tekken series, a PlayStation 2 exclusive. Among the 13 returning characters from the series, which began in 1995 as Soul Edge, are Astaroth, Ivy, Hwang, Kilik, Xianghua, Taki, Heishiro, Voldo, and Nightmare. ![]()
