I guess they may just be over looking it because the SC games improved on so much, as everyone's saying, but I still find it weird how one character in Soul Calibur has a really similar ending to another character in Soul Blade, and even builds up to it the same way (by being unable to finish his "victory pose"), and the characters use the same weapon (but don't fight the same). Did Namco feel the first ending wasn't done right or something?
