Topic: Soul Calibur 2 Import Impressions using Link

[joeamis]

I went to my local Gamestop today and they had Soul Calibur 2 import playable!
It turned out an employee there bought the import himself and put it out for all to enjoy...

anyways I only played it for 3 matches, using LINK!

Going into it I thought Link would not control like a Tekken/Soul Calibur/Virtua Fighter/Dead or Alive
brand fighter, and more like a zelda game... being a little cumbersome for a fighting game
BUT I WAS SO WRONG

Link controls just like the fighters in Tekken, etc... and is extremely smooth and dynamic
Link had a kick move, and two different slashes, and with a little taps on the analog stick he did some awesome spin slashes and combos... (one reminded me of Ryu/Ken uppercut spin move)
the graphics were only 2nd to DOA 3 on xbox, and seeing the game in motion really showcased how truly great this game is going to be, it's definitely the case where screenshots alone don't do it justice.

There are already a couple threads on this in the Imports section.
