I think you have it wrong
Gamecube version gets first party Nintendo character
Xbox version gets MOTHERFUCKING SPAWN
PS2 version Namco was so fucking lazy and shitty they couldn't even go outside their own company for a guest character.

...

I loved playing as Raphael. He's probably shit in tourneys, but hey, that auto-dodge shit was ca$h

>better than zero mission
kek

...

why did the XBox-version even got Spawn?
nothing against it, but what has Spawn to do with Microsoft/XBox?

>Soul Blade/Edge
Lots of stupid shit but was overall a pretty good game, a nice start to the series.

>Soul Calibur
Fantastic game, fixed many of the problems with the first game and refined and expanded on many mechanics, looked absolutely amazing for its time.

>Soul Calibur 2
Horribly dumbed down version of SC1, focus on a "wider audience" gameplay depth was removed in favor of adding guest characters as a selling point, many bugs such as Gstep and 2G make this already painfully slow game even worse.

>Soul Calibur 3
HORRIBLE game received zero testing has even more bugs than SC2, completely unplayable mess. the
>Arcade Edition
fixes most of these bugs and adds new characters.

>Soul Calibur 4
Fixed various problems with the series but added a retarded physics engine that had no place in a fighting game, this led to many infinite juggles and instant ring out combos.

>Soul Calibur 5
By far the best game in the series, goes back to its SC1 roots, ads depth and solid mechanics over stupid minigames, expands on many of the original mechanics, overall a great game.

Too bad half the roster of SCV was clone movesets. Along with 2 fucking edge masters. The balancing wasn't anything to write home about either. Viola dominated 90% of the cast. And the guest characters were ridiculous. Ezio was okay, low tier garbage ultimately. And dampierre. Let's not talk about him.

3 edge masters actually

2 had more clones

Yeah forgot about irrelevant elysium

If you're including the style switcher mod, I agree.

V balance was significantly better than 2

i would say 3 is tied with this.

In no way was it any good. Soul calibur in general has had bad balancing. But V was horrid. Any characters other than Omega P, Alpha P, Siegfried, and Knightmare could stand a chance. Take astaroth as an example. The only way you won with him is if it wasnt high level tournament play. I mained astaroth and had more success with Siegfried. This is coming from someone who's actually played the game in tournaments. Viola was in her own tier.

I can agree to that.

lol they make a sexy angle fucking Z tier. instead of making a move set i could be talking out my ass but i remember hearing that the game is half done and there was supposed to be a better story,more characters and elysium and kilik were gonna have thier own move sets. Not to mention that the entire roster was gonna have a more fleshed out moveset

...

It's a rumor. Nothing's been confirmed. But yeah that's how it feels. Story mode was a joke. Whole game felt extremely rushed. Almost as thought production started a year before release.

this and abyss

absolutely true, nightmare was his best here i loved his moveset

Symphonia and Berseria are better.

>Vesperia cast too good for this world, too pure

Astaroth moveset in V tho was fuckin amazing. I feel like he was the only complete character.

Sorry, wrong pic

Symphonia is great but i think it aged poorly (especially the multi player) And all the dungeons are block pushing

And i haven't played Berseria but if it just like Zestiria i'm not gonna like it only because i hate the basic bland combat system but from what i heard it fixes all the problems with Zestiria so idk i would have to give it a try.


Yeah its a shame that the Dindu cast Had to save the world.

Spawn was the shit.

Screwed up again, sorry guys.

>anime poster has shit taste

Man, today is NOT my day.

cause spawn is fucking rad

>Clone movesets
No, it had 3 Edge masters which was stupid but beyond that every character had their own fighting style. Dampierre is a joke character as well. Shame what happened with Viola since she was the product of being overbuffed but w/e. Still a better all around game than 2.
