Re: [Audyssey] a bit more soul calibur info
Soul Calibur is as accessible as any other mainstream game, it's for the ps3, and it is not free. Accessible by this definition means having to learn menus, but the gameplay itself is accessible. - Original Message - From: Connor Moser connor.mo...@aon.at To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2011 6:51 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] a bit more soul calibur info just to ask. what is soul calibur. is it axesable? is it for the pc? is it free? - Original Message - From: gamers-requ...@audyssey.org To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2011 7:23 AM Subject: Gamers Digest, Vol 70, Issue 125 Send Gamers mailing list submissions to gamers@audyssey.org To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://mail.audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to gamers-requ...@audyssey.org You can reach the person managing the list at gamers-ow...@audyssey.org When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than Re: Contents of Gamers digest...

Brave edge is basically a powered up version of a normal move. If you compare the SF games with this, the SF games have special and ex-specials. In SC, you don't really have special moves... instead you have a series of normal attacks that can be increased in power and have certain properties. A critical edge is the SC equivalent to a super move. The command for the critical edge is the same for everyone, but unlike 2d games you can't just throw them out and hope they connect... you have to combo into them.

Re: [Audyssey] a bit more soul calibur info
Hi. The Soul Calibur series is a series of weapon based fighting games that have been released on various gaming consoles over the last few years. I only have direct experience with SC2 and SC4. I first had SC2 for my playstation 2 and I currently have SC4 for my Playstation 3 and I definitely intend to get SC5 when it comes out. As with the other mainstream games that we are able to play, these games are not accessible in the strict sense of the word, menus do not talk so it is necessary to either memorize them or write them down, also some parts of the games are more playable for us than others. You have to be patient and willing to invest a fair amount of time and effort into these games to learn to play them successfully but in my opinion it is definitely worth it in the long run. Hope this helps. Game on.
