Tekken, or Soul Calibur ?

No...I thought the controls were good and the action was faster than tekkens....plus the counter attacks and reversals...

*sighs*

Nightmare isn't the best...if he is fully powered he is good but if he misses an attck or stops swining his sword he's a goner..

All you do is move a lot. And swing. Nightmare looks awesome, too.

nightmares quick face punch and knee thrust makes him more than a formidable opponent... he's top tier heh. although I know xianghua is the best, I prefer kilik out of all

I'll have to go for Soul Calibur/Soul Edge myself, Soule Edge/Blade was the first game I got for the original PS, and I didn't play anything other than that and FFVII for about a month
nothing against Tekken either, though, except Tekken 4, they tried to do too much new stuff too fast, in my opinion, and especially the fact that you canjust get pushed into a wall, and there next to nothing you can do, K.O., you lose
out of Tekken, Tag is the best so far

I've recently played SC in ps2, and I've really become obsessed with that gamn. I also had Tekken 4 and Tekken Tag on ps2 which I use to play frequently, but after finding SC, Tekken has gone down now.

SC > Tekken

VS

It would seem the stage of history, also known as Soul Calibur has taken the throne 🙂

Well you know, as the announcer has once said :

"The Legend Will Never Die"

Gyahahahaha 😂

I voted Soul Caliber

I'm not really a fan of beat em ups at all, the only 2 i like are moral kombat, and of course soul caliber. i think its the weapons that give it appeal to me. i used to be quite good with the girl UTB_Amon posted a few posts up, i cant remember her name!

Soul Calibur destroys Tekken, It's faster, better looking and has more intresting characters. I mean they have Astaroth foe god's sake, that dude rules.

Soul Calibur 2 is awesome you have such a variety of weapons. Tekken was the shit but its too slow now that SC came out.

Yeah, after DOA2 and SC2 it's like the fighters are moving in slow motion.

SOUl calibur rules...

by the way using CERVANTES i could probably wipe all of ya....
"come with me to hellllll!!!!"

Im a huge fan of Soul Calibur 2. I think soul calibur in general is just way better than Tekken.

her name is Seung Mi Na, and I tend to believe I am rather good with her myself, ChickinMeat

Kilik > Seung Mina

if I was to pick one of the koreans, I would choose only Hwang Seung Gyung

The characters and story is always Awsome, some of the best in fighting games. though i think soul calibur 2 was funner than tekken 4. I beleive Tekken is a far superior franchise. You get more for your money. Tekken always has numerous play modes, including tekken force. The convienance of having the moves on the pause menu is also a plus. Tekken always release a solid game that slightly or entirely reinvents itself. example...tekken tag. We had to wait years for a soul calibur 2, the wait was worth it. The gameplay is smooth and fun. Again though, you are comparing tekken to soul calibur. tekken 4 came out about two years before soul calibur 2 and it is essentially the same fighting platform. Tekken is obviously a far greater franchise that offers the goods with every release. It does seem though that soul calibur is a giant to be reckoned with though, but tekken takes the victory when comparing the two

The convienance of having the moves on the pause menu is also a plus
Soul Calibur had that since soul edge/blade

Tekken always release a solid game that slightly or entirely reinvents itself. example...tekken tag
Tekken makes incremental improvements.. they've never made an entire reinvention.. in fear that tekken noobs will complain about gameplay changing too much.

tekken 4 came out about two years before soul calibur 2 and it is essentially the same fighting platform
Even compared to soul calibur 1.. tekken fails in every aspect of trying to pretend to contain any morsal of gameplay.. its just not a 'custom combo' kind of game.. you 'have' to do the combos that are given.. and you find ways to exploit them.. which results in people owning in tekken and waiting for tekken 6 to come out

to be fair, i wasnt really good with any of the characters! and for some reason, i could use seung mina, but i could use kilik, i must be some sort of retard, because there exactly the same.

im just the worst beat'em up player ever

Tekken for sure, i love Tekken 3 more than nearly any fighting game (mortal combat and street fighter are still up there)

Soul Calibur 2 is the King of 3D fighting when placed against any competitor. Followed closely by DOA The only difference in Tekken games is the graphics and characters. It's always been slow, the characters are boring and feel the same and once you've completed the special modes it ends up gathering dust in the back of a cupboard.
Soul Calibur 1 for the Dreamcast was given a complete overhaul from Soul Blade for the PS1, and SC2 was overhauled as well. The speed was incredible, each character was unique with a distinct fighting style. The Story Mode was a stroke of genius because the special conditions in matches forced you to adapt your fighting style and use different characters as opposed to using the same one all the time. The weapons were very creative (as anyone who saw the hideous eye laden biomass Nightmare called Souledge complete will tell you.) And the story was much more entertaining.
Soul Calibur 2 stands above every other 3D fighting game in every way.

Hell yeah, man. Soul Calibur 2 rules!
