Introduction
Once upon a time there was a nifty little console. It was chunky and white and made a really loud purring noise when you fed it what at the time were referred to as GD-roms. This console was called the Dreamcast. I loved my Dreamcast. I still love its games. But the game I really loved was Soul Calibur. That game was something special. Tekken with swords you might say. Plus it really showed the power of the Dreamcast, being the game I would often use to amaze my friends with.
A year or so has passed and the Dreamcast is no more, sadly. It was now left up to the other big names in console gaming to pick up this fairly young franchise (there are only two games in this series; Soul Calibur and Soul Edge). All three of the big names Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo begged Namco for the rights to publish a version of Soul Calibur II and guess what folks? They all got a crack at it!
