I'm kind of excited to play this. I've always been a fan of Soul Calibur, and it's quite the crowd pleaser when I go over someones house and have a good time.

One of my girlfriends from college texted me today and told me her fiance keeps getting his a** kicked by an 8 year old in Japan rofl

xd

What is everyone's character of choice? I usually play as Sophitia. 3nodding

Well, I play as my own custom badass, using Mitsurugi's style.
Although, for playing as a normal character, it's a three way tie between Kilik, Maxi, and Yun-seong.

I'm actually best as Cassandra of all people, with Talim as a close second, and Taki as a third.

I haven't played Soulcalibur since the second one, which had the awesome Weapon Master mode, so maybe that's why I'm so disappointed with IV. And I always played as Link in II, so I don't really have a character of choice.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

I dunno, maybe my friend put on too many hours into that game, but playing against him, I always felt like Link was a really cheap character. No, I'm sure he actually was, I mean, he was like the only character who had projectile weapons.  

[Kaworu__Nagisa]

Link can be really cheap if somebody is good with him, but he can also be pretty shitty if the player isn't very good.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Well, you know every Zelda fanboy (not saying that you're one) would MASTER link. So if you play SC2 against a Zelda fanboy, and they choose link, you don't stand a chance, then.  

[Kaworu__Nagisa]

Pretty much. And I don't know if I would go so far as to say "fanboy," but the Zelda series is one of my favorites.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Okay, let me rephrase that. LINK fanboys. You know, those guys who write 30 paragraph comments in "Link vs. Cloud" threads in the Gaming Discussion Forum, about why Link would beat Cloud in a fight?

The people why actually try to put together every Zelda game into one canon, which I think is stupid, I've played a few of them, and majority of them seem pretty independent. The only two direct sequels of Zelda that I've seen were Majora's Mask and Phantom Hourglass.  

[Kaworu__Nagisa]

Yeah, I think that there is some very loose timeline for the games, but not all of them fit into it. Like how Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass are definitely the most recent in the timeline.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

I don't think they're necessarily in any timeline. I mean, it's obviously not the same link in all the games. So what, is there supposed to be a new generation of Links and Zeldas in the same world? They even follow different mythologies. Frankly, to me, Zelda series as a whole is like a big book of stories about the same character, written by different authors. Which is awesome in itself. But I wouldn't try to put them together into one continuity.

It's like those people who actually tried to say that Final Fantasy X and X-2 fit into the same continuity as Final Fantasy 7.  

[Elliot Salem]

Actually, there are two more games that have somewhat of a story. Two of them for the Gameboy color, Oracle of Time and Oracle of Seasons, I think that's what they were called.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Are they directly connected by continuity though? Cause I always thought they were just really interesting kind of... Counterparts.  

[Elliot Salem]

If you played one and beat it, you'd get a code, when you start the next game, you put the code it, and then it'll act like a sequel.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Oh really? That's pretty awesome.
But aside from those several duos, most of them are fairly irrelevant from one another. Which is, like I said, not necessarily a bad thing.  

[Elliot Salem]

Yeah, although I honestly wish there would be a few more sequels to Zelda. Like at the end of one, after you rescue the princess, you get attacked or something. And then you'd have to find and rescue her again in a different land. Although, that might be hard to do and could possibly end a long running series.
