    I guess this was Namco's response to Fighting Vipers or maybe Battle Arena Toshinden. Anyway, it was launched in 1996 (same year as VF3) with the same hardware as Tekken 2. This is the game's second edition, which includes an intro (for each character, indeed), Hwang as a unique character, a playable Cervantes and some balance changes.
    This walkthrough will cover Siegfried's story, which if I'm not incorrect, is considered the canonic one. There will be some emulation problems, specially in Li Long's stage and there are some sound effects missing too. -

    Lmao it's kind of amazing to see how some movesets just never change even throughout all these years. Siegfried has always had that pancake slam and that same vertical slash combo.

      I tried doing that several times with Siegfried but never succeeded. Two years later, when Soul Calibur came out I beat that on a single quarter, with Nightmare, who I had no idea was the same character until the ending sequence

    Well, since in Soul Caliber Siegfried has the Soul Edge and has turned into Nightmare, it's safe to say he won this game. It's also the first time a character I used in a fighting game was made the canonical winner in the sequel.

    Once I got into the series, my brother helped me and burned the PS1 version for me. He said "You may not like it. It has 90's written all over it" (I was born in 2000). But boy he was wrong! I played the CRAP out of this game once I got it in my hands! I was in love with everything: the music, the characters I never saw before (SCIII was my first SC game, then I played SCII and later SCIV), the arcade mode and how difficult and fast it was. I always used to pick Sophitia, Taki or Siegfried.
    This is also where I understood the story, and where I also understood Sieg's backstory. I was like 11 when I played SCIII; I just played because I liked it. But thanks to SoulBlade, Siegfried became my favorite videogame character of all time, and this became my first, most beloved franchise of all time.
    And all of this began with SCIII. But SoulBlade had a big influence for me.

This game got me hooked into the series in the first place and without it, it won't explain how Siegfred became Nightmare.

      You played the first version (which only had 8 normally playable characters, 9 with a code in the game (hwang) or 10 through MAME cheats (cervantes)). It is rather infamous for the fact that the CPU uses glitchy game mechanics
      against you, like short hops then a crouch-kick while you attack near the floor where they stood. They also sidestep a lot and they back off really really fast (which was made impossible in version 2. The animation has to end first before another quick backwards step).
      Ironically, Cervantes is harder in Version 2, but Soul Edge isn't. He is tough as balls in Ver. 1 because of the aforementioned reasons and the crazy amount of "M.Bison psycho crushing".

    Just replying to ripoutyourprejudice's legacy comment. If anything, they would of went with Soul Edge 2 most likely and not Soul Blade 2 as Soul Blade was just the port name outside Japan (and it sucks compared to Soul Edge or Soulcalibur). But than again, maybe outside of Japan it would of been called exactly that if they stuck with Soul Edge 2. But thankfully producer Hiroaki Yotoriyama decided to give the sequel a new name.
