RetroAhoy: Soul Edge

i broke 3 controllers playing soul calibur 2. Wasnt rage induced controller breaking, it was wear and tear. <3

I remember when Link came out, and for a moment in time Gamecube owners were on top of the world XD

Soul Calibur 2 is in my opinion, easily the best of the series. It has to be one of the best fighting games ever made.

I played this game when it came out on the PS1. The Intro alone was so captivating that I re-watched it over and over. Discovering by accident that you could dodge the bullet in the ending of Mitsurugi gave me a heart race. Only through reading through some magazines I then discovered that each character indeed had secrets in their ending, adding replayability to each of the characters! It wasn't just the good gameplay, Soul Blade really had a lot going for it.

I have good memories of SC2, 3, and 5. I will never forget getting to top 8 in a SC2 local tournament that had about 50ish participants, and all the hours I spent in create a soul in SC3. People generally didn't like Chronicles of the sword, but I enjoyed it for it's simple but classically laid out drama and make you the player the hero rather than one of the mainstay characters, who instead were clearly too busy with their own story to care much about the struggles of your squad, which I think is pretty lore appropriate.

Welcome to the stage of history.

Another thing worth mentioning- Soul Blade's opening cut scene is crazy good, you guys should definitely have a look.

I just came from watching Nuclear Fruit, and every time I divert my attention to something else for a small moment, I look back at the screen and then wonder for a moment: "What does this have to do with the Cold War..?"

I'm a bit disappointed you didn't mention the appearance of Link, Heihachi and Spawn in SC2, but did for Star Wars and Assassin's Creed characters for the others. They were very major features to that game.

Soul Calibur on Dreamcast still stands up to this very day. What a great game,what a great console.

Holy crap, SoulBlade was my first fighting game! The nostalgia in this video is insane.

I love how your videos can be watched by anyone, absolutely anyone and understood well

I had soul caliber 2 and 3 growing up loved the games, thanks for shining the light on these games.

Ah, I love SC 3, I played soooo many hours of it and managed to not improve one iota, but it was all great fun. I especially loved the campagin mode with the "tactical" elements where you could make your own character be the hero of the story. It was aaaaaawesome.

Soul Calibur 2 still holds up today as a great, balanced, easy to learn fighter. It's still a crowd favorite within my friend group, even and especially with my non gaming comrades. Want your non gamer girl to play a video game with you? Soul Calibur 2 will definitely work.

Soul Edge was the first fighting game i ever played. Good times.

Soul Blade has one of the best if not the best video game intro movie

I still fire up the PS1 with my brothers for just this game to settle disputes both old a new, truly a classic

talking about soul edge without mentioning the ps1 intro sequence. i am dissapointed.

Sorry but 'AcTuAllY' SoulCalibur was because of the EDGE copyright in Europe. SoulEdge (JPN) SoulBlade (Us/EU) Everything game / media related with Edge in it was insta-lawsuit by EDGE publishing group. To avoid a lawsuit and the same name in all around the world, they wanted SoulCaliber and said "F** it, we don't risk a lawsuit with Caliber for XXXX reason, let's make up our own word" SoulCalibUr was born. Extra funfact : EA wanted to make Mirror's Edge. EDGE publishing said " oh sweet juicy lawsuit ^____^ " EA replied : I dare you. I DOUBLE dare you .... And that announced the end of the forbidden usage of the word Edge in VG.
