Soul Caliber II

EGM reviews 10, 9, 10 (GotM)

PS2
https://www.gamestop.com/common/images/lbox/280650b.jpg

Quote:

Controller: The PS2's controller works rather well, with a responsive D-pad and well placed buttons.

Graphics: This version has the worst graphics of the bunch, with choppy slowdown when the sparks start flying.

What Else: The load times on the PS2 aren't too hot.

Xbox

Quote:

Conrtoller: You will hate this game on the orginal Controller F ("fatty"). But the newer Controller S is great. Some of us prefer it to the PS2 controller.

Graphics: The best. This version supports the highest resolutions for HDTV and also kicks slowdown to the curb.

What else: The load times are much faster than on the PS2.

GC

Quote:

Controller: Unless you reallly like pounding on one button more than the others (and if you want to play the game well you won't) the GC controller is the least comfortable (along with Xbox's Controller Fatty). The diminutive D-pad only makes things worse.

Graphics: Better then the PS2's, with no slowdown, but it doesn't get as crispy sharp as Xbox's in high resolutions.

What else: The load times are much faster than on the PS2.

so which version are you getting ?? :ghost:

PS2 and GC.

Although, as I've stated before, I really have no idea why I'm getting the PS2 version. I mean, it's obviously the worst of the bunch. :disturb:

The GC version for, well, because of Link :shappy:.

- Blah. I wanted to resserve a copy, since I really want to play this game, but it seems the stores around here are being an ass.
They want to see an extremely long line that day. Bastards. :mad:

*mena will be at a local *unheard* of store early that morning.

not entirely the worse of all. :) the control for the ps2 version is the best of all. The graphics however..well..not so good. The cube version and the xbox version will look identical unless you got a high definition television..that's where the diffrences of the two versions becomes apparent.

1st place: Xbox version - best version

last place: Playstaion 2 version - best controls overall

worst place: gamecube version...mostly because of link. and the gamecube controller.

Sorry for the late reply (:P), but there were some slow-downs, but they weren't so noticeable...at least to me. *gets smacked* I would prefer to get the PS2 version because the controller is the best to play, but Xbox would be the next best (but only if you use the S type...I can't imagine using the regular controllers for the game :P).

For those who read my review of the Japanese version, I'm sorry to have mislead anyone if I did. I only played the PS2 version, so I couldn't compare it to the JP Xbox and GC ones, otherwise I would've given a full review. So, if there are any errors you guys find in the US release, I'm sorry. :heh:

how bad are the load times

I have a demo of the ps2 version and I didnt see any load times and the game was built on Ps2 hardware

I have an of topic question why does the ps2 have load times and Xbox and gamecube have very little?
