Soul Caliber

[Cole Tyger]

how do you get the images off your PS2?

[Hyperguy]

I use a capture card.  Basically I run the PS2 cable through the converter that came with my capture card and take screenshots.

It's an ATI TV Wonder PRO I believe.  It was given to me last Christmas for being a good boy.

Did I say tomorrow?  I meant the day after tomorrow!

Yuka vs. Satomi:






Yuka wins the first round...


And Satomi wins the second!  It's a draw!  What an upset!


Next, Satomi takes on ninjas!


Oooh!  Sidekick to the forehead!  This match was decided before it started!


Serving food, and flooring ninjas, this is the way of the VG warrior.


It's not a VG fight without panty shots!


Mitsurugi thinks he can get the slip on Satomi...


Little did he know, waitresses throw down harder than a bag of bricks!


Siegfried gets served:

It's the birth of Create-a-Soul theater. I just know it is.

Hmmm.... I think I better pick this bad boy up O_O

[Cole Tyger]

Grad School man, Grad School. Got so much work to do I can't even complete the perfection techniques for some of my other fighting games =/

[Cole Tyger]

well, its official

the sword master class is NOT "able to use any weapons discipline"

made it all the way to level 99, the next level part of the display went blank, and all the disciplines for the standard characters are still unavailable to the swordmaster class.

on the other hand, i have learned how to be INCREADABLY CHEAP with the dagger/bomb combo skills

I have SC3, and I like to pretend I don't suck at it. At least I completed Chronicles of the Sword (mostly by sheer stupid luck), so I have every single custom part available. The only ones I need to buy are the really expensive ones.

Anyway, I'm vascillating between Siegfried, Cassandra, and Setsuka, trying to get good enough with one of them so I can finally take on another human being. Doubtful that's gonna happen, though.

Cassi is a good middle of the road character for you, decent speed and reach with her weapon, as well as some easy/cheap moves you can re use over and over

Seig is all about the power. he's slow, but he's got a hell of a reach, and you ALWAYS know when he's hit you, blocked or not.

Setsuka is like another version of Taki. her weapons range isn't the greatest, but she is crazy fast with her speed.

of the three, i'd suggest the fastest character, but then again untill i started playing with the created souls, i was a Taki user, (and not just because of her costumes) but now i find that the chinese blade (the normal form of Soul Caliber) is a very versitile style. that and when you get rid of all the dance style moves that Xianghua uses, it's also a fairly brutal way to deliver a beat down on someone. (the running double kick is a personal fav for an opening attack at the start of a round)

That's funny, because when I used the chinese blade, I'd barely be able to land hits.

Oh, I also like Raphael, but he's so crazy that I feel like I'd lose track of him while dodging and poking and stuff. Not good.

Thanks for the advice, though. When I get some time, I'll train a little more.

[Hyperguy]

You may want to give the Rapier a try.  It's got all of the speed of Rapheal, but less of the fuss.  Also, Amy (the girl Raphael protects) uses the Rapier, and since she's a standard character she's probably tournament legal, plus she's just so darned cute with her A-cup breasts and Anita from Darkstalkers silent treatment thing going on.

Man, I love this game.  I'm a beast with Astaroth against the computer.  My favorite character in the game is Voldo.  My favorite custom weapon is the lance.  CAN THIS GAME GET ANY BETTER!  Well, yes, but not by much!

[Cole Tyger]

CAN THIS GAME GET ANY BETTER! 

well letting you use your created characters in ALL the modes would be a good start, as well as adding costume parts that will allow you to build the regular cast

(i would love to be able to use some of the regulars costume elements in my custome's)

[Hyperguy]

Before I forget, here's the formula for creating Satomi:

Well, Jesus!  I guess I'd better get goin' on my X-mas list!

My wife used to kick my ass all the time on a SC machine in the student center at my first college.  I wasted most of my food money jes' trying to get 'nuf experience to be able to whip her soundly, but she is a beast at SC.

Thanks for the rave reviews.  I've gotta get this game.

[Cole Tyger]

just be prepared for several new characters to do the downtown stomp all over your unprepared self

Luna is particularly vicious with that move.

Dumbing down the amout for items would help immensely.

On a side note, my SC III OST arrived yesterday.

Whose's ass at Namco do I need to put my foot in to thank them for the cancelation of the Tekken 5 OST?!
