Soul Calibur 2

Me too! In fact I've been playing with a friend until the wee hours of the morning, and we're close to unlocking everything !!

I have the PAL version, running at 60Hz in my modded 'cube. And yeah, I pwn w/Link too

I like that weird guy, who is made of pieces, looks kinda like clay or wood or something

Oh, Metal Gear Solid 2 is just started to get weird, in Arsenal Gear.

Is there a difference between the PAL and NTSC-U versions? I mean content wise.

Scarface for Wii...this game is F*CKING AWESOME!!! loll seriously though it is pretty good but the graphics are average. Plays similar to GTA.

I didn't notice any before, but a quick Googling revealed this:

Soul Calibur II isn't without its faults, but thankfully they're quite minor. We noticed some quite annoying bugs in the PAL version of the game, such as the mislabelling of several weapons in the Weapons Gallery section of the Museum - a small problem, certainly, but one that makes it quite difficult to gauge the strengths of certain weapons. You'll also want to turn the English voice acting off as soon as possible - some characters are quite well done, but the excessively squeaky Xianghua, the incredibly fake sounding pseudo-English accent of Ivy and the downright diabolical Kilik were enough to have us giving thanks for the option to switch the voices back into Japanese, which is fundamentally a far better language for shouting death threats at people anyway.

Gaming purists will be pleased to find a 60Hz mode in the title, alongside widescreen and surround sound options (available in various flavours in all of the three versions), while CG fans might be interested to know that the stunning opening movie was nominated for a Best Of Show award at a prestigious graphics convention earlier this year. Those concerned about the longevity of a beat 'em up will be pleased to note that the Weapons Master section of the game is not only huge, but also almost infinitely replayable, while beating your best times in the arcade mode is also a surprisingly addictive pastime. Oh, and those who owned NTSC versions of the game might be interested to hear that the AI in the PAL version is significantly overhauled, and now presents far more of a challenge, even on Easy difficulty, than the pathetically easy AI opponents in the Japanese and American versions, with massively improved blocking, timing and counter-attacking skills.

I find it strange that a PAL version is superior to its NTSC counterpart, and I'm glad to have it .

[son_ov_hades]

Wow that's crazy. PAL versions are usually crap compared to the NTSC counterparts. Oh well, for $5 I'm not complaining.

Would you say Soul Caliber 2 is one of the best of the series, if not THE best?

Finally, unlocked everything at Soul Calibur II  !!!
I've invested about 50 hours into this game, totally worth it
