The Soul Calibur series has good fighting games.
Some nice lightsaber action coming up :)

Post by: StreakInTheSky on January 11, 2008, 02:56:33 AM: holy crap :lol:

I already wanted the game since Soul Caliber is my favorite fighting series, but adding the two of them is a nice bonus.

I remember the ep. III game's vs. mode was like a cheap SC game. Maybe that inpsired them to add it.

Well...Because it's a videogame, and that's the magic about about videogames, we can do whatever the hell we want. 8)

Remember Gon from Tekken 3? I'm surprised they'd be repeating the mistake. We'll have to see how they address it.

Post by: winner on January 11, 2008, 07:52:02 PM: still have confused feelings about the news.

Darn, all 360'ers get is a Yoda. Doh, no Darth Vader... but Vader is the cool one. But wait, Yoda kicking a**e in Soul Caliber, that's really really cool (cooler than a totally made up comic character at least). But he's old... I want an evil twisted heavy-breathed black-knight guy with robot arm and red laser sword. But Yoda is REALLY cool.... headache!!~
Guess I'll just have to buy a PS3 too then. :lol:

I totally laughed at this:

The game will be released on July 31st for ¥7,800 (US$73)
$73?! O.o

That Starkiller character looks interesting. Just read an Wiki article saying that he is Vader's secret apprentice in an upcoming Star Wars game.

lol, good thing those covers are the Japanese versions. I like these ones better, and I'm sure a lot agree.
