Um not really, for one, it didnt have the same graphics, the PS2 version of SC2 looked clearly worst than the other two versions, I know cause i played the hell out of all three. And two people forget or want to forget that the GC version had exclusive advertisment on TV no other version was shown, the fact that PS2 still beat it my more than 50K is still impressive IMHO
As a GC owner I can confirm that I only bought the game because Link was in it, had no actual interest in Soul Calibur before I saw he was in. Turned out to be a marvelous game though!
@oniyide
Each version had a commercial showcasing the exclusive character.
Considering that the PS2 sold so much more than the GC, the fact that SCII sold so much on the GC is impressive.
@Sal
I heard great things about the game and the inclusion of Link also pushed me over the edge. I thought the game was pretty mediocre though.
Let us also not forget the install base. How many people owned a GC and how man owned a PS2 at the time?
When you cross them with those numbers what type of results do you get?
