[Roto13]

[Dreddz]

[Roto13]

No way, Tekken has always been superior, Im not trying to say I dislike or hate Soul Caliber, but Tekken does so much more. Firstly, Tekken has a much better cast of characters than SC. Tekkens combat is more varied, its got more moves for each characters. Where some characters share the same Style, all theres moves are different, while SC's cast each share moves that are too alike.
Tekken doesnt have stupid modes like Chronicles of the sword which was terrible. And SC trys to do more than the average Fighter but fails extras like Create a Character , its just carrying alot more crap than good.
Tekken focuses on its fighting, it has had modes that arent part of the actual fighting game, but there not taken too far, and are there mainly just for a bit of fun. Chronicle of the sword actually requires you to walk through a terrible experience to unlock silly things.
And, Tekken has at least gone one step up, Tekken 5 changed the Tekken experience for the better, While SC3 still feels like the original SC. With a few changes that dont really do much.
And Tekken has had better gameplay, the characters moves look better, they seem more extravigent. Its not just simple
-> A + B
There are awesome combo's which, although harder to pull off, give you more satisfaction than the micro second moves from SC.

well, I find chronicles of sword quite a way to get you to lvl up your characters, which is the only way to unlock classes such an Pirate and Soul of Taki etc.

and well, the idea of any fighting game combo wise is to be creative, for example, I managed to rack up a 30 hit combo with my thief which looks Hawt with his dagger and grenade.

ps: in the pic, its taken with my camera, which is horrible, so yeah, it dont look to good.

Fight 100 matches with a CAS character with the job you want to get disciplines for. A quicker way: make two characters with the same job, set their health to 0 in vs mode, and fight 50 matches to get all of the disciplines quickly.

mmm, true, but, its not lvls. and you need lvls to become uber and to use special weapons to truly customize a created character to your likeness.

Nope. You can get all those things with the method I described above.

[Markus. D]

heh heh, okay, maybey is crap then.

but well, this game still isnt crap.

[Roto13]

Right. I don't like COTS mode, but I like pretty much everything else. Except the save file corruption. Damn, I wish they had finished this game.

[Markus. D]

0________o corruption? when?

[Roto13]

Just turn off autosave, don't soft reset, and always finish the Chronicle you're playing.

I found the best way to unlock stuff is too bring over a mate , although I'd imagine there with there cooler friends playing tekken , well kidnap someone and go to Team battle mode, oh wait, Soul Caliber 3 is so crap and dosent have it. Anyways, go to Vs, and just play and play, Eventually every character unlocks itself........
