The Soul burns again!
Looks like Soul Calibur III is on the horizon already. Sweet! Unfortunately it looks like it's a PS 2 exclusive? WTF?

that is kind of lame that it will be a PS2 exclusive only. the gamecube version was definitely my favorite out of all the SC2's.

NNNNNNOOOOOOO
My soul burns with rage!!
Granted, I have all 3 consoles but the ps2 is the least played. I was hoping it would go multi so I can get it on the xbox for its pretty pretty progressive scan picture. mmmm.
I'll still buy it though - I'm sucha SC whore. *whimper*

I personally just hate the controller. The only reason the GC version sold the best was because of Link. Honestly who really wants to play as heichii?

On the rumor sections in the newest EGM (with Jade Empire on the cover) they mention Xbox, PS 2, GC and Xbox 2 this year for SC3 with an exclusive character on each console again. That's just a rumor, but usually those in EGM turn out to be true i've noticed.

They are going to have to pull something big out of their buts for me to buy SC3 on whatever system. The last one was a bit of a let down, it was a good game but it didn't really add anything and didn't have as many etras. Heck I still think the first one was the best in the series.
Bring on the King of Iron Fist I say.

This type of posting behavior isn't welcome in this forum. Tone it down a few notches.

Think how cool it could be.
Xbox - Master Chief
GC - Samus
PS 2 - Kratos (God of War)
Something about seeing Master Chief sticky Ivy gives me a warm and fuzzy.

eta: I was reading about this in gamepro (what? it was free) and they were saying how Soul Calibur 2 was a let down. Maybe I'm going crazy but I remember people going crazy for it when it came out. Was that just hype?

It's apparent that the last go around Link sucked up most of the budget, cause honestly who truly cares about Spawn? Come on, let's see those hands.....

As I understand it Namco received Link for "free" be developing Starfox with Nintendo. It was a trade type of action in which Nintendo continued to beef up its image while getting a game and Namco got in a two of Nintendo's popular franchises.

Oh really? I never heard that. That's a pretty smart way to handle it I suppose.
I'm just bummin I'll have to use the PS 2 controller for the series I love. I hold hope that one day there will be a Live version and possibly a Namco vs Capcom 2D fighting game. When I dream, I dream big, what can I say?
