Cassandra's new pink shield.
SCORE!!
Also being able to use Siegfreid (sp?) again. If he has the same movelist as the old Siegy, then Nightmare's getting the boot because there's simply no comparison between the two. Siegfreid > Nightmare.
The character creation thing doesn't really wow me, but it's an interesting addition.
I've also been rummaging around for some sort of news that it'll be released in the arcades too. I know the phrase of the day here is "PS2 exclusive" but a high profile fighting game of Soul Calibur's prowess should definitely be thrown into the dim lights of arcades across the world (at least until the next Tekken comes out and steals back all my human opponents). I truly do miss the satisfaction of beating up human strangers, participating in tournaments and hearing people behind you gasp in awe of your ass-kicking-ness.
Being online wouldn't cut it for me anyway. It'll save me a lot of money in the long run (I've probably spent about 400+ at the arcades just on SC2) but the atmosphere of arcade gaming is what keeps me going back. Sort of like how people prefer playing LAN at cafes even though they could play at home.
