This is a play-through using Cervantes de Leon in the PS1 version of Soul Blade / Soul Edge. Read on below for more information...

Cervantes is the sub-boss of the game. He is a regular playable character.

For this play-through, I've chosen to use the Serpent's Tongue as his weapon. In my opinion, it's probably his best weapon for power, speed and defense.

This video shows both of his endings, the Bad one and then the Good one.

===== About Cervantes =====
Cervantes is the dreaded pirate villain and is one of the staple characters of the series. He has the honour of being the first ever character in the series to wield the Soul Edge.

I think Cervantes is the best boss of the series... his status as a notorious pirate really did make him a great boss for Soul Blade, and his BGM theme "Bravely Folk Song" suits him perfectly. He is one of my all-time favorite bosses in a fighting game.

===== About PS1 Soul Blade =====
The PS1 version of the game is one of the all-time greats on the console, and is one of the best 'conversion/port of an arcade game'. Aside from the loading times (which are very short anyway) it's virtually arcade perfect. It helped that the arcade original ran on hardware that was already based on the PS1 hardware.

The PS1 version has tons of features that are not found in the arcade original. For example, the port has 2 extra remixed soundtracks, new character costumes, new weapons, cinematic endings for the characters, the superb Edge Master Mode and more.
