I love soul caliber game, its as good as xmen vs streetfighter but in a 3d sense. Its going to be a classic. Soul calibur is theonly 3d that i like. other games like virtual fighter and tekken arent'r really 3d fighting games, yeah it looks 3d, but the gameplay is not because of the back direction. when u press back. you block, but in the 3d world back is walking back. not blocking.
i hope they dont F.. up astrooft, he's my favorite character. i hope they have it online for the ps2.

Maxi is there, but you don't fully understand his ending. What really happened...

Maxi fought against Astaroth and killed the big guy. Now, Astaroth was the servant to Ares, God of War. Now, you can't just go kill a servant of a God without consequences. A fissure opened up the ground, swallowing Maxi and leaving his nunchakus behind (at this point the ending is accurate where Kilik and Xianghua are on his ship and cast the nunchakus in).

Maxi was paralyzed from the neck down, but was rescued by a villager and taken to a remote village. There he stayed (paralyzed) in the village until rumors of Astaroth being alive reached his ears. He called the medicine man and a concoction was made from a shard of Soul Edge to heal his injuries, but in return for his ability to move and seek revenge he had to lose something of equal importance: the concoction made him forget of his friends Kilik and Xianghua.

Now, Astaroth was brought back from the dead by Ares. He was made stronger because a human didn't create him this time; Ares himself did.

Here is a high-level skill video of the new character, the French fencer Raphael Sorel.

Two combo videos illustrating new combos that Isabella Valentine (Ivy) has out of her new whip stances.

http://media.gamecombos.com/sc2/stuff/ast-02.mpg

An insane un-techable combo done by the big man himself Astaroth. This combo is absolutely crazy and does over 90% damage. See if Asta has been ruined for yourself, MVC2.

Thanks for these videos go to tragic and WCMaxi of the official SC2 site, www.soulcalibur.com and the forum there.

Man, i hope they dont start adding cheap infinity combos. that will just ruin the game, it'll ruin any game. The only thing i wish they would add is air combos. it would mean that it would be the first 3d fighting arcade game that has aircombos like the one in street fighter,but only limited to 5 or 6 hits.
what i also like about soul calibur is their 3d enviroment. unlike tekken where all they did was put a long looping picture in the background and tried to trick us it was a 3d one. lol. but only thing i dont like about soul calibur is out of the ring.. a lot of ppl who suck likes to resort to that..
when i play tekken, i always feel like i dont have enough room or distance between my and my oponent. its like there's some kind of magnetic, every time i move back. the game pulls u back in to hitting range.. in soul calibur. its like xmen vs street where it leave u a lot of room to fight..
anyone here hate tekken but loves soul calibur. most of the ppl in the arcades play tekken but when they come over to soul calibur, they get beat down. cuz they dont have those stupid combos buttons.. some guy i know played tekken with out looking at the screen, once he hit u, u would look down at the buttons and do a pattern combo.. it was stupid..

akuma_forever · 08-08-2002, 05:31 AM

i have never played any soul caliber game...

08-08-2002, 08:16 PM

what character do you guy use on soul calibur? i think 5 best are astaroth, the samuria guy, voldo, sophia, and lisard man. theres are the only 4 characters that give me a challenge when i play astroth. most of u think ivy is good but she sucks. all u need to do is step step when she uses her long wipe. and i always beat ivy users by doing that.

astaroth probably has the most and best charge move. why dont ppl every move or side step froma charge move. its like they get dumb and dont see the shiny light. i always get them with my charge grab. hehe
