Started playing some more Soul Caliber III, the game is still fun but not as fun as it was before. I can beat most of the missions pretty easily now..the only challenge is when I play as a really weak/slow character. It's pretty disheartening when I'm playing one of my friends as a weak character when they have a slightly slower but much stronger hitting character and I hit them about 20 times and get them to about 50% health, they hit me twice in a row and I'm at the same health as they are. It's pretty fun to ring people out though, if you get a character that has a throw that tosses forward, you can either jump and slide tackle them off or grab them and toss them forward. If they block you can't slide tackle them off so you just have to time it correctly.
I've also gotten really really tired with the final boss Abyss- he's either super easy to beat its like one of the first characters in the story or he's almost impossible to beat unless you ring out him. Usually me and two of my friends take turns grinding him down. It's just so infuriating when we're able to get him down to 5% health and he starts chaining stuns/grabs so we can't do anything. The game isn't very rewarding now, it's more either frustrating or neutral.
