Nintendo Europe has announced that Soul Calibur 2, the sequel to one of the most acclaimed fighting games in recent memory, will see release in Europe this year. Citing Autumn (2003) as the official launch date, the title is destined to be co-published by both Namco and Nintendo in Europe, an apparent sign of the strengthened relationship between the two companies. Nintendo Europe will distribute the title across the continent.

Perhaps theyr'e developing both versions at the same time?
What's does NTSC and PAL stand for anyway?

More lines are visible on the screen so the games have to be adjusted to the screen otherwis ull get black bars.
USA release around same time?? I really wanna know why they choose Spawn for the Xbox version.
Maybe Spawn will get an Xbox exclusive game which is good for one--
-- part and to bad--
-- for the other.EL Pollo Diablos

Todd Mcfarlene (Creator of Spawn) helped design the 'hidden' character Necrid, exculisve to all console versions. Now whether this is related to including Link or not; perhaps Namco thought it was unfair to have 2 'hidden characters' on Gamecube but not on PS2 or XboX. While including HeiHaChi in the PS2 version was a pleasant surprise (So far it seems he's unarmed by default), what to include in the XboX version may have been a riddle McFarlene and Namco had to figure out.
Why not Spawn? A little promotion never hurt anyone
This seems logical, but I could be mistaken

But that's aside. Thanks for explaing the Todd Macfarlane story.
