Alright, I realize I\'ve been trying to shove a non Megaman or Capcom related game down everyone\'s throat for a while now, and I\'m sorry about that. But now, with the release of Soul Calibur 3\'s surprisingly insightful website, I think I may have enough to make a decent topic with. Anyways, go to this site to see the official website (full of flash). Alright, I\'d also like to say what I know so far as well which I believe I\'ve already sent to Morphman earlier. I guess this should get spoilers.

This sounds pretty interesting and i dont even like fighting game.

I don\'t have much more to say to Aim than I had to say in my PM.
It\'s a great game, probably, seeing the others were good as well.
Just too bad it\'s PS2 only.

I heard it was going to get a release on other consoles eventually...anyway, this looks like a great game and I hope it\'ll be. Can\'t wait to pwn with Siegfried again ;P

Awesome...Soul Calibur 1 & 2 were real time wasters...I hope I lose my entire sense of time while playing SC 3.:lol:

I hope they put link in a version, he was my best character!

I can\'t tell you for certain about any other consoles the may release SCIII for, but on the PS2 one they have confirmed there will be no cameos (though they got a bunch of offers). They mentioned that Soul Calibur would get old doing the same thing twice. Most likely their big gimmick for this one will be the character creation mode.

Which will rock.

Oh. @$%#. Yes.

I am SO getting this.

*starts to foam at the mouth*

GAAAAAAAAAHHH...The awesomeness....

Oh yeah, a new trailer just popped up on Gamespot (along with ENDLESS new PS2 and PS3 media; must be the Tokyo Game Show) for Soul Calibur III! It\'s pretty cool looking, er... but it doesn\'t really offer much else besides. In fact, maybe the only reason I really care is because it has you-know-who....you-know-who... Oh, come on, Sueng Mina!:lol:

Right here.

A quick update: characters missing from this game include

-All cameos
-Necrid
-Yoshimitsu
-Sophitia

And I think that\'s it.

It kinda sucks that Necrid isn\'t in the game...but Sophitia? oO; I don\'t really like her, but it\'s kinda weird not having her there if you ask me =/ Same with Yoshimitsu...

I am SO getting this game even though some of my favorite characters were taken out......

Hrmm... I guess maybe Necrid was removed because Todd McFarleen\'s character \"Spawn\" is also announced not to be featured. Yoshimitsu, maybe just because he was a sort of a Namco gimmick (they love having Yoshimitsu in their fighting games), not that there was anything wrong with him. Sophitia maybe because, plot wise, she should be missing/dead at the moment, and gameplay wise, Cassandra is very similar, right?

If you want to look at all of this from a positive viewpoint, they said SCIII would feature about 20 characters, and considering those 3 and the cameos are out, maybe there will be some secret characters which are not even known at the time?

I kind of wonder if Charade\'s still in. He seemed kind of superfluous.:conf:

There is no doubt in my mind im getting this very awsome game. I am gonna own with Raphiel (i suck at names like these) hes my best through and through or so you\'d think sence he\'s my fav but i rock with everyone except Voldo i dont like him anyways and i say he\'s cheap sometimes.
Wait...Nightmares awkaened he never went dorment, what happened was he took control again and casted Soul Edge in to the center of the earth and for eternity he gaurded Soul Edge, or so SC2 saids. Oh and Airman do ya know the offical release date or is it delayed at all.

Raphael, good lord, I hate that rapid thrusting attack. I mean, I hate it being used on me that is. Not that I have any problem with him as a character or anything.

Concerning the story behind Nightmare, this is what I have gathered:

Ok cool but the relase date? What is it?

10/25/05 is the American release date. Pretty close, and I\'m very excited. Hopefully, we\'ll get a bit more media before it is released. Oh yeah, a new thing about Character Customization I just learned.

Damn.
Their.
Oily.
Hides.

Those assholes should have made it for every console. But no, they had to make it for PS2, those cheap losers.

Actually, multi-platforming is extremely expensive, and from what I have heard, it was a very high budget game (or, it must be, with all these features on top of graphics). Furthermore, there probably wasn\'t much need to without cameos. I liked the GameCube game myself, but I won\'t knock these guys for anything at this point. I can\'t bring myself to do it.

Oh yeah, more on character customization:

Here\'s some more news:

Sorry to bump, but it\'s a lot of info in this next news I just found out. Anyways, watch what you read, for this information is likely to be slightly unreliable.

SPOILERS, BY THE SITH, ENORMOUS SPOILERS:

AND KEEP THE SPOILERS IN SPOILERS, YE WHO POST BEYOND THIS POINT! Some of us would like to wait until the game comes out.

So if you\'re going to post about the info Aim just posted, use spoiler tags. (spoiler)text(/spoiler), with [] instead of ().

Post redacted

SUENG MINA\'S NOT A CLONE SHE\'S BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE AND HER FIGHTING STYLE DOES DIFFER SLIGHTLY FROM KILIK\'S OR AT LEAST I FIND IT FAR MORE MANAGABLE EAT YOUR BROCOLI!!!1!

Er, you know, like I said before:

I knew all of that stuff. -sigh- Next time Night gets a major change, I\'ll die! At least Sieg is the guy I\'ve been training with for 3 years.
