Unexpected this one is
 
All of a sudden, I am interested in Soul Caliber.
 
:laugh: yeah I wasn't going to bother with this at first cos I hated SC III :|

but my interest has been aroused at this surprise.
 
Heh. The best Star Wars characters have ever looked in a game by far and it's not even a SW game.
 
Haha, oh wow. Totally unexpected. They weren't kidding when they had some special characters lined up for the game.
 
I dont know why but I think ti would be very awsome to see a fight of cervantes and darth vader

cervantes is a pirate ghost

this is really like "wtf?"
 
That looks total fuxxing sechs.

EDIT: Sh!t. PS3 version gets Darth only and 360 gets Yoda only??? WTF Bandai Namco??? Better be some DLC love in the future for each system...!
 
That video looked really cool til the last part with darth vader, I mean come on..he could just slice the guy's sword in half :laugh:.
 
i lol'd
how could the others stand a chance against the Force??
 
God damn it. Vader's the one on PS3? That is so lame. I f*cking hate Namco's bullshit about console-specific characters. Whatever excitement I had for this news just went out the window. Not only is it catering, it also sucks because there goes any chance for Yoda vs. Vader battles. Lamery.

Ah well. I'm more interested in what Ivy was doing in the trailer than the Star Wars characters. It was some kinda hold; maybe something new to replace/agument Summon Suffering and Calamity Symphony? After her retooling in SC3 I haven't wanted to play her (she's just so different now), but whatever THAT was, holy shit.
 
I'm highly anticipating Soul Calibur IV. I don't much care for it myself alone, but it's a tradition that my brother, cousins and I have played them when we get together.

And now you know how the PS3 owners feel about exclusive GTA 4 content on the 360. Exclusive content in any game is ridiculous.
 
It really is. I'm all for a game appearing on multiple consoles without exclusivity, simply because that way games reach a wider market (speaking specifically about third-party games), but to go ahead and produce games for multiple consoles and then start putting in exclusive content for specific consoles...well that defeats the purpose.

I don't want to buy a PS3 for Darth Vader anymore than you probably don't want to buy a 360 just for GTA4 content. It's stupid. If I already own a system and the game is coming out for that system, I should get everything in that game. It's the same with Soul Calibur 2, y'know. I didn't want Heihachi, I wanted Spawn. I can understand Link not showing up on any of the other consoles, but that right there should've said, "Don't do this at all, Namco."

I figured after SC3 they had eschewed console-specific characters in lieu of the character creation system. Alas. At least I've got another diehard SC friend who has a PS3. Still, lamery.
 
My friend has a PS3. Awesome. Darth Vader, fools.
 
I am getting the PS3 version, Darth Vader FTW!!
P.D: Don't turn this thread into another 360 Vs PS3, with downloadable content these days, chances are they'll make all extra characters downloadable for both consoles in time...
 
**** that. **** THAT. Vader on PS3 only?

I could handle SCII where us Gamecube nerdies got Link, but this plain sucks.
 
Wouldn't a soul calibur 4 without star wars characters and a separate star wars Jedi combat game using the same engine make more sense?
 
To play as both characters I have to buy the game twice?? I mean, I have a 360 and PS3 but there is no way in Hell I am going to buy the game for each system and I doubt anyone would choose a system based upon what ONE secret character from Star Wars might be in it. People will buy the game for whatever system they have--why split up the good characters for each console? Can someone explain the logic behind that???

(But yes, hopefully with DLC we should all have all of the characters.)

That would likely be very awesome indeed.
 
I was kind of annoyed that Vader was PS3 only, but then I remembered I don't care at all for the Soul Calibur games. Now I feel my anger subsiding.

I guess it's just the principle of the matter.
 
I wouldn't worry too much. The reason they probably let them use the characters is to build excitement up so they can release their own SW fighting game in the future.

Seriously?

I've finally found a use for that black paperweight
 
OMG Wii version gets Mace Windu. :laugh:




I wouldn't play any one other than Astaroth anyway.
 
this is surely one of the strangest things to ever happen in a game?
 
Kinda weird but, whatever. I mainly played as Mitsurugi anyways.
 
They transferred their force-esence into clones of themselves.

ALTERNATIVELY

This takes place after Episode 3 but not Episode 4, and is all due to wacky time/space hijnks. Thus Vader and Yoda are still alive and in prime fighting form.

WHAT NOW, HUH? GONNA TRY ANDS POKE HOLES IN MY LOGIC NOW, FOOLS? Yeah wut.
 
I think I will have more fun playing as Yoda. Sure, Darth Vader looks badass, but in the end, it's just Soul Calibur game character and he will swing his lightsaber like any other characters.

But in the case of Yoda, he jumps high, and short. It will be a bitch for someone to play against Yoda.
 
I was joking about Wii getting Mace Windu. :laugh: Wii get the shitty Soulcalibur Legends D:


And yeah, I play Astaroth. I'm pretty much undefeated as him. If SCIV has MP I'll play y'all when it comes out. :E

He'll probably play like Talim, flipping all over the place and doing aerial combos.

I'm sure it will have MP; few fighting games don't these days. I'll definately look forward to a match. Hopefully Hwang's still in, like they brought him back for SC3. That's my main since Soul Blade, even after they started changing some of his moves so he wouldn't be so similar to Xianghua (who I also use).
