Preferred her SC2 costumes though.Yeah I remember thinking wtf is this at her SC3 and SC4 costumes, those probably put me off using her moreso than I already was. Not like I would have anyway since vampire Raphael and all.
MightyKombat said, July 20, 2013, 07:32:05 pmBut fighting games are starting to show up on PC ore recently, so I wouldn't count it out yet.Valid point. But it comes down to budgeting and I would think Namco is going to produce the console/online versions first and then see what happens. I'd personally love to see this on the PC, even if all I would want to do is mod/rip stuff from them. Time will tell I suppose.MC2 Da Palette Gawd said, July 20, 2013, 07:39:21 pmMightyKombat said, July 20, 2013, 06:02:38 pmTalim feels alright in 3 as well.

Not like I would have anyway since vampire Raphael and all.I remember recreating all of those awesome SC2 costumes in SC4. That was a lot of fun. I am also one of the very few fans who hasn't played 5. I felt as if the gameplay got a little stale in 4. Which explains why my mind is blown with this SC2 announcement. The gaemplay is still solid to this day and isn't a broken mess, at least in my opinion.Lets hope the online holds up. Judging by Tag 2's performance, I don't think we have much to worry about. ::crosses fingers::

Blindly.

Well, ain't this a nice thing to hear about. I had the PS2 version of SCII and I always wondered if there would ever be any chance of facing someone in this game.With this being online, now my dreams can come true. All I ask for is that they keep the single player stuff as well. I know online is nice and all, but I happen to enjoy beating the CPU every now and then as well.Oh, and if possible: Can they make Spawn cross platform? I want to use him at least once since I never played the Xbox version.

If Necrid is in, then it wouldn't too much of a stretch. But, as of yet, there has been no spotting of Necrid so it's up in the air.Link on the other hand is very doubtful.

As hated as he is, he was the only cross platform guest fighter in the game. I wouldn't be shocked.. Link, on the other hand, won't be in this.Which is OK by me because if I wanted to use Link in a fighter, I'd go play SSB Brawl.

Taken right from X-Box 360 Achievements.org:QuoteNamco Bandai has announced that Soul Calibur II HD Online is coming to the Xbox Live Arcade to celebrate the game's 10th anniversary, meaning you'll be able to revisit what is arguably the best game in the series to date, all presented in shiny HD with new online battling modes.Soul Calibur II HD Online will feature the same online modes you'll find in the current Soul Calibur games, with the likes of Arcade, Survival, VS Battle, Time Attack, Team Battle, Practice and Weapon Master all available to partake in. Characters such as Ivy, Siegfried, Taki, Voldo, Talim, Kilik, Sophitia, Maxi, Mitsurugi, Astaroth and the rest of the crew are all in, present and correct in HD, with bonus character Heihachi included too (he was originally a PS2 exclusive).Licensing issues mean that Todd McFarlane's Spawn from the original Xbox version and GameCube exclusive Link from Zelda almost definitely won't be in the game, but the chance to play Soul Calibur II once again in HD with new online modes is too good a prospect to pass up.And screenshots HERE:http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/soul-calibur-2-hd-online/showimg-1/
Siegfried? Well, I guess if somehow Necrid can't make it in.Hang on, one of the shots is of Inferno in Astaroth's stage. Is he gonna be properly playable now?
Inferno, AKA Calibur's Mokujin/Edge Master was always properly playable, you just had to unlock him. But with the way things are nowadays, I'm going to safely assume that Namco will already have everything unlocked right from the get-go, like Tekken Tag HD on the PS3. Also, I could deal without Spawn and Necrid, thank you. I always thought they should have included Medieval Spawn instead of Vanilla Spawn here as a Medieval theme fits perfectly with SC2's time period. While Heihachi is rad and all, Namco should have went straight for the Arcade Roster along with Assassin, Berserker and Lizardman. Having Heihachi without Link or Spawn, while completely understandable due to liscencing issues, makes me feel a little cheated.Ah well. I'm hooking my X-Box up tonight and getting to practicing/remembering my movelists and strategies.
Not in SC2 he wasn't. I am very certain you couldn't play as Inferno in SC2 at all without hacking so seeing him outside of his home stage here pretty much hints he might be actually usable this time.I was gonna laugh at them mentioning Siegfried (Since he wasn't in SC2, or he was as Nightmare and as his 3rd costume" but if Necrid can't get in I'm sure they could put Sieg in anyhow.He's not Talim though.
Well they're both mimic characters.I'd prefer if they drop Charade and brought back Edge Master or Olcadan though. I liked those guys, especially Olcadan.
