i also would applaud the creators of the game (slipped my mind at the moment) for putting effort into a mutli platform game! i think thats a brilliant idea having a different console specific character in each version

Is Soul Calibur all that, Im still thinking about a decent fighting but the word im looking for is MULTIPLAYER value. I have my picks at: Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, Capcom SNK EO, and now this.
I mean im not buying the game just cause of a character model of Link
but I will buy it if I can play it over and over again without it getting old.

But to import this game I would have to pay 60$ for the Japanese version, 20$ for the Freeloader, another 20$ for a new Memory Card formatted for Japanese games and shipping. Thats over 100$ which id rather invest into 2 games.
Crap, looks like ill have to wait till August.

I loved the first one, still play it on the Dreamcast, im suche a huge fan i might import it and buy it in august as well!
Now that beats it all
I couldnt do that even if i was rich, why buy the same game twice?
I sure will import the game if I start to gather some cash soon, but dont have a job yet.
I calculated and importing would cost me around 115$
thats alot even for SC2. Have to wait for some reviews, a perfect game deserves perfect attention, would have done the same with Zelda if there wasnt so much text in it.

Sell on par with the PS2? Im not so sure. Link is a fabulous bonus but the fact that the PS2 has like 5times the userbase makes this slightly unlikely.
Anyhow, great game and a sure must buy for me, perhaps even my first import title (4months wait can be painful, zelda is already killing me and im only not importing caus of language

that's true, but sc2 really doesn't have much competition on the cube. the only other 'classic' fighting games are bloody roar, capcom vs. snk, and mortal kombat. those are the only ones that i can think of anyway.. my point is that sc2 on ps2 has to compete with tekken and virtua fighter, whereas on cube it is obviously far better than any other fighting game on the cube (i'm excluding ssb:m because it isn't really a 'classic' fighter).
i think that sc2 will sell very well on the cube, but the ps2 version will most likely be the most popular.. just thought i'd add those points

Smart move by Namco, hopefully it pays off for them.
I've played the arcade version and I'm about 100% confident that it will be well worth owning.

This might be a SPOILER to some people, so beware.
They added a story mode (sort of) which gives the game some depth in that you can acquire new weapons etc. But the bulk of the game comes in the arcade and versus modes. Plus, Anyone can pick up this game and have fun with it immediately.
This is a must have and I think it was also a game which people shouldve imported a looong time ago (its very very import friendly with most of the menus in English).
In August, you guys will be blown away.
P.S. Link is awesome, though sometimes he does strike me as out of place.
