Heh. I can kick anyone's arse using Raphael. Or Sueng Mina. Or Xianghua.

I've actually gotten so good with every character that no one will play with me unless I use the random selection or Charade. ^_^;;

as for the purchased swords.. I never use em cuz they really tip the game over

all i know about soul caliber is that i sucked at it, i sucked hard

charade should be more of a reason not to play with someone.. and xianghua is the only deadly one out of your roster as well [its sad but there are 'best' and 'worst' as far as numerical attk and speed data go 🙁 ]

The only deadly one is Xianghua? Who do you think you're kidding? Out of the three I cited, Mina's the best. Almost as long range as Kilik, great attacking power, great speed.

Don't get me wrong, I love Xianghua's deceptively flowing straightsword style, but Mina wins out here.

...

im sorry for repeating myself but seriously are you blind?! Seung mina has to be one of the slowest characters in the game. hell shes even slower than astaroth! Shes nice though...very nice.

Dude, don't exaggerate. NO ONE is slower than Astaroth.

Mina has good speed as long as you distance her from the opponent. Her close range attacks are slow, true, but Mina's not meant to be played at close range. Stay back, and she's gold.

i kinda agree with you both she is a tough character unless you use her as the general described. the thing is that she is like maxi...if you really want to bring out their potential you have to be willing to pour alot of time into them.

just a random question...do you think theyll have different weapons and fighting styles for create your character mode?

i dont know if someone posted this already but dante(devil may cry)might be in it

Listen to Trance, Satsujin. You just have to pour your intent into her. *points to 3:56 Extra Arcade time with Mina*

And Trance, I heard that you DO get to choose weapons and fighting styles in the character creation. But probably, you'll choose from the pre-recorded styles of all the other characters.

they better.. I plan to make my alter ego in soul cali form 😄

and general, he agreed with us both.. besides.. I like kilik better anyway.. mina is good for popups.. but I just like kilik for some ungodly reason.. to be truely honest though assassin is my fave (strictly soul calibur 2 speaking).. I just like his outfit >_> (the metal with the blue)

Ha! Yeah, Assassin's fun to play around with, and he looks cool doing it.

As for costumes, I think my faves are Nightmare's unarmored look and Talim's second costume (I dunno why, something about those "cat ears" ^_^;; )

actually kilik and seung mina are clones of each other...kinda like cassandra is a clone of sophitia. Kilik seems to be alot more quicker and he tends to swing alot whereas seung mina focuses on stabbing

my favorite costume is mitsurugi's third costume(the robe with the stick in his mouth) dont ask why i just like it.

also my friends keep telling me that one of taki's breasts are bigger than the other.(i wouldnt know because im not that perverted to get off to video games) is this true?

Umm... interesting question... 🤨

Unless it was a really small, almost invisible difference, I doubt Namco would make such a stupid mistake.

On an ALMOST related note: Shinobi (female ninjas, for those who don't know) would NEVER fight "hanging loose" like Taki. They would bind themselves. No Taki bouncing in fuedal Japan, drooling perverts!

*cough* i think you mean kunoichi(the female version of ninja)

well.. there 'were' ninja females.. kunoichi's that dressed like sluts to get the men close enough for a quick kill.. (I think that latest game red ninja or something portrays that as well) .. they were sorta like prostitute assassins.. in any case.. I think they went overboard on how much her boobs jiggle.. but its funny to play with her against a dude, cuz you know its an easy win.. me on the other hand.. if a girl wants to fight against me, imma beat her up like a dude just the same.. I wouldnt care if she dressed like a hooch

and no, I dont think her boobs are mismatched.. but she definately needs a bra...

i agree satsujin... if a woman wants to fight a man she has to abandon all the chivalrous benefits that she receives just because of her gender. its only fair that way.

i think they work how you described them but i doubt they would be as powerful as the game"Red Ninja" makes them out to be. I heard that nearly every guard in that game can be seduced and killed no problem.
But Taki on the other hand seems to be a frontal assault type.

ill try to find a article on kunoichi's if i can.

Anybody siked about E3?

Well.. Im sorta half am and half not.. I am because I want to see new ideas being breathed into old genres.. and Im not because I know a large portion of the stuff there is just going to be sequels and repetitious ideas, because they dont want to risk something new

With the launch of new hardware to create for I think best new ideas are gonna be saved for those systems and not the current ones on the market

Japanese-headquartered toy and game creator Bandai has announced that it will be merging with game developer and publisher Namco, in a deal worth around 175.3 billion yen ($1.7 billion) in cash and stock.
