Soul Calibur II released --- MY first impression:

[Zero]

I feel like a "we todd"... I finally figured out how to compress videos. The first 7 vids should be up on MacT's HD. You guys should see it when Macky hosts it in his website.

It's 12mb or less for each vid! Kick ass!

My friends are still playing like a ******. Especially the Astaroth one. I even promised that they would win if they would play well instead of panicking and button jamming, but that still didnt stop them from sucking.

Anyways, Yoshimitsu one is good (as always) And that wasnt even my serious Yoshimitsu! I was playing around w/ Tekken steal move 70% of the time! Room went crazy when Lei's Drunken stance came out, but my opponent hit me in the middle of it. Needless to say the guy was gang raped by a very angry mob.

Nightmare and Voldo ones are alright too, but its not mostly the good voldo/Nightmare that wins the battle but rather the bad opponent's skill that allowed them to win. Next time, I'll tape a match with a more worthy opponent.

so... i said 7 before, but actually its 8 vids. and i didnt upload all the vids until today. MacT should now have them all. In addition half of them are already up on the website.

Any chance of getting mpegs? Avi's don't seem to like my comp.

but divx avi is what makes it so compressed.

Get a divx codec. Here I'll provide one for ya. (can u access my upload files in poly? I dunno how this works)

Angelpotion solves 99% of all divx codecing problems.

CaptainGarlic. Im curious as to how your voldo is like. It would be cool if I can see a sample of just how you play the game.

And does your breath smell? big time?

Yeah, everything is up now.

If you want to have more hosted just PM or e-mail me, I turned off the FTP.

I know you like having the really small files, but it looks so odd without the sound.

Make sure you get some vids with the special characters.

Hmm...I currently don't even have the remotest possibility of getting a video, so I'll try to describe it.

I generally start off either backing away or dashing in and doing a throw, to catch them off guard. It works surprisingly well...anyways, then I just move on to general strategy. I don't so much have a fight plan, i.e. specific order of attacks, but here's a few strategies I like:

While someone's just standing, do the gate pryer(66a+b,k). Most likely they'll get caught by the second part, when you hit k.

I favor the caliostro rush attacks and throws if I move apart from someone, as they go under most A attacks.

In the 8wayrun, I like the 66a+k,k. Same as above, if first part misses then the second usually hits.

If someone's charging, the 1k, 6a+b works well. From that you can get into the mantis crawl(I forget exactly how -- holding 2, I believe...). And of course from the mantis crawl -- LANDFISH! WOO!


There's so much more...but I'm too tired to go on. Oh, and I brush and floss regularly.

For El Capitan...



I'll try to check out Calc's videos when I get a chance. I just got back into town from a trip and have a lot of work to catch up on...
