Namco Voice Trick:
At the start of the game you will hear a voice say Namco. Hold L1+L2 then press
UP for Seung Mina's voice, DOWN for a quick voice or BACK for a normal voice.
Play as Han Myong:
After Soul Edge becomes selectable, beat Arcade Mode using Hwang, then Seung
Mina immediately afterward. There are conflicting reports whether you must see
both endings for these characters or not.
Play as Soul Edge:
To play as Soul Edge, beat Arcade Mode with each character, OR leave the game
running for 20 hours. If you pause mid-game, this 'timer' will still continue to
run.
Ultimate Weapon:
After defeating Cervantes/Soul Edge, your character's Ultimate Weapon will
appear in one of the stages that can be reached directly from Spain. If you lose
the battle where the Ultimate Weapon was, your character will perform his/her
'loss by time-up' animation on the map screen. If this happens, the Weapon will
have moved to one of the stages adjacent to the one you are on, but it will not
move to Spain.
Ultimate Weapon in Arcade Move:
To use the Ultimate weapons in arcade mode highlight the charactor you want to
be and hold up till a weapon list shows up beside the charactor. Know you can
choose the Ultimate Weapon or any other weapon in battle. Note: You must earn
the weapons in Edge Master Mode.
Winning Poses:
To change your winning pose, press Triangle, Square, Circle or X after you've
beat your opponent.
Hint:
In Soul Blade (U.S.), the Soul blade never moves....it is usually ALWAYS on
episode 8. For example, i lost several times with Taki, that lovely ninja, and
i still managed to get in North America. Same with Siegfried. I lost a few
times with him in Germany, but i still got it after i won.
