    On what planet does selling less units equal the best selling version? The PS2 version sold a good half a million copies more then the GC version overall and the PS2 version outsold the GC version by nearly two to one in both Europe and Japan.

    You sure about that? I could have sworn the GC version far outsold the other two versions, with PS2 being in second and Xbox being dead last. I've found various articles that state the GC version sold the most (due mainly to Link), yet none that say the same for PS2. Where did you hear that from?

    The Gamecube version outsold the PS2 Version 5 to 1 from what I found looking around just now.

    Most of these claims are based on the first two week sales of SC II in North America, in which the GC version did outsell the PS2 version quite a lot, although I am sure half of these were by Zelda fans who just wanted more Link.... however overall the PS2 version did outsell the GC version in NA. Worldwide the PS2 version sold 2.1m units the GC 1.5m... (these figures were provided to me by Namco a few years back for work purposes...)

    On a related note I do have SC II as sample Japanese versions (normal versions with SAMPLE - NOT FOR SALE stickers on the barcode as well as SAMPLE etched into the rings on the PS2 and Xbox version.

    I don't believe that and I can't find any official numbers. so Majority rules says Cube outsold the PS2 mess.

    Is Dampierre that tall skinny guy with the tash? I got hom and the two nights with my Japanese game from Amzon. I have no idea who he is or where he is from. He's a right pain in the arse as well.

    He was a character in the PSP Soul Calibur he was supposed to be in IV but half the Dev team supposidely hates him. I guess his DLC status reflects the Team's thoughts. He's on the disc though and you can fight characters based on him in Quick Battle.

    Anyways, I think I have a new all time favorite Soul Calibur track.

    Not a fan of Lexia but I love her theme.

    Do you want to know a very cheap way to reach level 99 without any effort :). You will. Eed a rapid fire controller for it to work and leave your 360 on all night though.

    not bad, not bad at all :nod:

    I've been playing on the Japanese servers but always get my arse kicked. so I headed on over to Europe and the UK server. man, that was bad. full of fucking wankers shouting abuse when they loose or if you don't speak to them. So I moved on to the French servers. no abuse and a challenge suited to me.

    I've had a few people Rage quit on me but for the most part online had been one ass kicking after another. The Key to winning online sadly seems to be PICK ZIGFIRED PRESS Y

    Just played it in VS Mode for an hour. It's really fun! I haven't played any Soul Calibur since SC2 and the only one that I really played a lot was SC1. Not sure if it's a new character, but I sure enjoyed that Patroklos guy.

    What they turned Kilik into is a shame, he looks like some 15yr old Japanese punk. At least they blessed this abomination with a different name... but the moves are still the same, so the nostalgia does its job and lets me enjoy playing him.

    I kind of missed Taki though.

    That's not Kilik. that is a different character. Kilik is actually in the game although GOH said he's now like edge master using everyone's weapons. I have an idea though. Just go to the character create mode, select Kilik and give him that teenage boy's weapon and there you have it, good old Kilik is back.

    That's because he's not Kilik.

    An Natsu plays ALMOST exactly like Taki. Maybe a little faster but she's more or less the same as Taki with a few slight differences.
