Who else thought Soul Calibur 3 sucked?

Ah, yes. Soul Calibur 3 aka the blacksheep of the series which was broken, unbalanced, rushed, and unfinished and was full of bugs and glitches. Who else agrees?

Everyone pretty much knows this already. Even Namco themselves admitted this.

You're one of the very few people that liked 3.

No offense Sarah, but if you like SC4 so much (I love it too, FYI), and only care about the core mechanics (Like most people here), then just talk about it in the SC4 forums. It's a hell of a lot more pleasant and productive than attacking somebody's opinion over an older game.

it was bad because of my two favorite characters were crap and look ugly as hell.

At least Talim didn't have her insect eyes from SCII though!

I liked it. alot.

God just let it go. LEAVE SC3 ALOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!!!

SC3's battle mechanics sucked, battles rarely lasted longer than 20 seconds because sneezing on your opponent did roughly 90 damage.

A lot of things about SC were bad, but at least one thing about it was very very good. Chronicals of the Sword. That mode was extremely fun and I was sorely disappointed to find out it wasn't in this game, it would've been so much better because of the better battle mechanics. (even more let down by how incredibly lame and half assed ToLS is, it just feels like a lazy excuse to not do CotS.)

Chronicles of the Sword sucked and was buggy as heck. You can just level up by losing and you had to level up to get the Soul of an existing character. Lame.

I enjoyed SC3. If you didn't mess with VC it could actually be a fun game.

I was wondering if we could close this thread now before it gets out of hand with Soul Calibur 4 whiners.

By the way, Soul Calibur 3 was a mess at high level play.

Unlockables that increase replay value? yeah you're right those are awful.

As extremely well formed and reasonable as "It sucked and was buggy as hell" is, I'm afraid I don't agree with you...mainly because I have reasons for thinking what I do.

Busywork is not "replay value" it's busywork.

Don't bother opening threads asking for opinions if you only want to hear one type of opinion.

OK. Sorry for that.

As much as SC3 sucked, it had a great soundtrack and beautiful stages. Exactly what SC4 is lacking.

SC3+SC4 combined = perfect SC game.
