It's an awesome game if you haven't tried it. Full of great characters and cool weapons. The combos are excellent too, and if you usually can't complete combination attacks, you can still kick someone's ass. I enjoy playing this game because it generally is great.
Thoughts about it?

I don't have SCI, better yet, I never heard about SC until SCII came out and I was told Link would be the featured character (I'm an avid Link fan). That's when I first became interested in it. But I didn't have a GameCube and wasn't going to spend $100 on a system to have one game. But then, I played SCII with ST... and got my ass whipped. And then from then on, I broke down and got SCII for PS2... (don't ask) even though by the end of the summer I did get a GameCube and bought another game instead!! LOL, either way, I love the game. It's all I really play right now. The combos are awesome and what I like about it is that the damage taken off is realistic. What I don't like is that with the right person you can basically kill them in three hits. LOL, oh well.

I don't know.....I think I like SC2 better than 1, only because I'm a shallow shallow girl who likes shiny pictures.... I like to play as Talim, though, she's so speedy! She's not as cool as Seung Mina, but she definitely gives her a run for her money. And this is a little off topic, but does anyone else think that Seung Mina's red outfit makes her look a lot like Mai from the KOF series?

Hmm...I never really thought about it, but I can see the resemblance. I always thought that Taki looked like Sango from the Inuyasha series in anime....but I suppose Soul Calibur was first, and Inuyasha could have copied the character image from the game.

Yes...and also, is it just me....or does Yung Sung look EXACTLY like Hworang form Tekken 4? They are even both from Korea....

Um... if you guys haven't noticed... many fighting games bite off of each other. And some of it's pretty blatant too. I have noticed the one about Yunsung and dude from Tekken 4 and the Taki one too. I'm not sure about the other girl (and yes, Talim is friggin' awesome). Maxi looks like a buff Elvis, Astaroth looks like the purple Tick, Nightmare looks like a tore-off Leonardo DiCaprio, and Lizard Man looks like that lizard thing from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I have a game called Guilty Gear XX that basically rips on anything it can. For example, Jam reminds me of ChunLi, Baiken is a rip off of Rurouni Kenshin, Chipp Zanuff looks like friggin Billy Idol, and Testament looks like the Grim Reaper. It's like some unwritten rule that in a game, you have to steal something from somewhere else.
Um... did anyone notice that Cassandra looks like a female Link when she's in her green and brown (or what I like to call her Woodland Elf) outfit?

I agree with everything but the Leonardo DiCaprio. My opinion has evolved to such where I now feel that he is ugly as all hell. But Nightmare is freaking fantabulous.....freaky arm and all.

Oh MAN!! I LOVE SCII!!! I bought it over the summer for X-box [yes I own an X-box, No shame] Damn I love it.. My favorite character and best is Cassandra.. Why ..? I think it's cause she reminds me somewhat of my girlfriend, kinda weird but I think its cute.. whatever I remember it took me about like 3 weeks to get Everything.. like all the secret characters And what not.. my second fav. has to be Talim, shes quick and she reminds me of a helpless girl that is too much into her soul.. -shrugs- Love the game, played the ps2 version. and the Demo version for GC.. I do wanna try Link.. I might be lame enough to trade in the x-box for the GC ver. once I get a GC.. oh well.. just thoughts!!
SCII!! two thumbs up!!

I'm not a big fighting game fan but I have owned SCII for PS2 for quite some time now since I have enjoyed it, good chars, graphics, fighting, ect. ect.
Too bad I suck at those games or I'd play it more, for the most part now since I've unlocked everything and beaten weapon master mode I just watch the weapon demos -_-

[glow=blue,4,300]I'm good enough at fighting games to hold my ground. But not good enough to make everyone angry at me and refuse to play against me for the rest of eternity. Since I'm in college (and a marine bio major) I'll be lucky if I even think about touching my PS2 two weeks in a row. So I barely get a chance to play anything. But when I do, it's SCII.
Um... about Talim being a helpless girl. She *looks* like a helpless girl, but she can hold her own if you know how to use her. I think I'm best with her against bogus people who think it's always better to use giant people. LOL.
I have yet to actually *finish* the game. I keep getting my butt shanked at Weapon's Master. I'm half way through though. Oh, and ST's sake and mine, for anyone's finished it and gotten all the characters... HOW ON EARTH DO YOU GET LIZARDMAN?![/glow]

HOW TO GET LIZARDMAN : In order to be lizard man u need to become an edgemaster rank. the first e.m. rank is level 72. to reach sub chapter two be level 72 or higher. then beat a level in mizar (preferably merope monastery) in extra or regular mission again. there should then be the road to alioth. after beating that fully, lizard man will become selectable. this will only work if you have beat the whole weapon master mode. if you beat alioth before then like myself, the lizard man will only be selectable when you finish the game. I am level 75 grand edge master of the basilik and know what I am talking about. you can also purchase all joke/fake weapons. like nightmare's galley oar or kilik's bamboo staff. Source from : www.Cheatplanet.comcheck it out if you need some more help. Good Luck!! -[Del]-

On behalf of ST and myself, I'd like to say thank you! I'm nowhere near that to get him, but still, thank you!

ahaha..
I used Cassandra and got to level 75 pretty quick..
I got frusterated a couple times to trying to get to that level.. so prepare for some close, and intense matches. It got crazy.
Ahahaha.. for the Timed ones use Talim or a character with good combo links
and for any other one use who ever Your main player is..
don't know if that'll help.. also game for hours!! like at least 2hours a day and you'll get there ^_^
good luck!
