    This game is awesome but it's a bit of an awkward one to record due to the weird Weapon Master mode. Nonetheless, this game has some awesome cinematics, very fun combat and really cool characters. The GameCube version features Link, Xbox features Spawn and PS2 features Heihachi. I never owned any of the Tekken or Mortal Kombat games when I was young, but I had this.
    Anyway.. about the Weapon Master mode.. it consists of a few areas each with their own battles. Most of the battles have their own special rules (i.e fast health regeneration, no blocking, knock the opponent against a wall, etc). The goal of Weapon Master mode is to make it through all the areas to battle the final boss and trigger the ending/credits. The problem I had whilst recording this game was whether or not to just go straight towards the final boss or to do all the subchapters as well.. I opted for the latter. The problem with that is that most areas can't be accessed in the first playthrough and require a second playthrough... so that's what I did. I completed all of the possible stages/areas in the first playthrough, killed the boss, then did all stages again (+ new stages) in the "Extra" playthrough. That's why this video is so long. Unfortunately it doesn't really add anything new as there's no cutscenes or dialogue for completing any of this. The whole thing fell into a bit of a greyzone regarding our video guidelines but I decided to record it anyway just so I wouldn't get any complaints.
    After the long tedious Weapon Master mode, I do one round of Arcade.. which is more battles.. but with no special rules! There's a bit of an ending for each character. I made sure to include all of them in this video. Including the PS2/XBOX exclusive character ending.
    Good game overall. I wish the "Extra" Weapon Master wasn't a thing and I wish there were more cutscenes throughout the Weapon Master mode. The whole thing feels a little rushed now. They could've gotten more out of that.
    I also noticed that Subchapter 2 is missing. Probably because it's locked behind a bunch of requirements and I accidentally missed it.

      @@longplayarchive its been so long since I've played this one, there was some areas that was not available in the first playthrough of weapon master mode and you had to go through a second one in the extra version of the mode right?

      Each system had it's own special character. Gamecube had link from the legend of zelda series, ps2 had heihachi from the tekken series and I dont fully remember who was the special guest for the xbox version.

    The nostalgia I felt watching this was overwhelming. THE best game in the series by far and the game that got me into Soulcalibur to begin with. I remember spending hours each day playing this game as a Yunsung main. Back when I was 13 and life was simpler. Good times.

    I still have my copy, beaten it 100% (yes, I did), and I always use Link, being so familiar with Ocarina of Time as a kid. I miss the true Link, the Hero of Time Mr. Hiyama did (trying using Nightmare/Yoshimitsu in Japanese for something familiar...).
    The game itself is a wonderful fighting game. Weapon Master is super tedious, though, especially when unlocking Grandmaster rank, then reaching Lv.99.
