Soul Edge: Soul Blade
built 231 days ago
Soul Edge is the de facto antagonist in the Soul series of games and namesake to the first installment. Originally forged by human hands, at first Soul Edge was just an ordinary sword, but after being bathed in blood and hatred countless times, the sword turned into a demonic weapon and gained a wicked soul called Inferno. Those who grasp its hilt are unable to escape its curse, as its spirit invades the mind like a parasite and drives its wielder insane. As its blade is soaked in blood it grows in power, yet it manages to shine a polished red. Soul Edge is distinguished by the animate eye representing its core.

Ivy realized it was Nightmare who possessed Soul Edge. She came to this revelation only after he was defeated and the evil blade was shattered. That meant that the beloved blade she had forged to destroy Soul Edge had life thanks to the power of the evil blade. She ... learned the secrets of her true lineage.

In 1997, the biggest thing to land on the PlayStation was a fighting game called Soul Edge, later renamed Soul Blade for the West. For many, it was the game that tipped the scales in deciding whether to purchase a PlayStation or a Saturn, for it was easily the most pompous, fast-paced, and visually impressive fighting game anyone had ever seen on a home console. The opening FMV alone is still looked upon as one of the greatest ever made.
