Defending Soul Calibur 2 Part 1: An Old Man Shakes his Fist in the Air

Imma start by saying that 2 and 5 are my favorite games in the series, with 5 taking the top spot slightly for me. I would support a sc2 revival, but not a sc2 HD revival. this PAL version of the game is ass and is not what I enjoyed 10 years ago.

Also touching on 2g, throws and lows are not the only way to beat it. The technique is timing based and the window on GI (especially 4g) is rather large. Take ivy 6b8k and 33a for example. Both fit in the must be re-GI'd window and have vastly different impact frames. You will not be 2ging this mixup at a high rate of success.

How many frames do you get in the GI window? 20?

Would have to be verified but for 6g I believe 20 frames and for 4g 27 frames.

It is. Sigh...guys get over yourself and just say it already. Soul Blade/SC1 were a good start, SC3 was a trainwreck, SC4 was unbalance and SC5 was unfinished. SC Legends...shall not be spoken of. LBSH SC2 was when this game was the most popular and the most hype. Why are people getting mega butthrut at the obvious?

What? No one is grtting butt hurt over the game sucking, it just sucks. I don't think you know what the word "butt hurt" means... the only thing I'm upset about is falling for the hype train from nostalgia fiends and wasting 20 bucks on a game that I uninstalled after four days of having it.

When people of multiple parties start saying "it sucks because I don't like it", it's time to end it.
