Hahaha I never expected that! I was hoping it was gonna be Voldo and it was some piss take but that was damn funny in itself. If the game turns out to be as good as the others then it should be a treat aye.

Nice. That's a fun surprise. It may motivate me to finally pick up a 360.

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.

Awesome cameos, but I don't think Yoda will fit. His size is so unnatural that even horizontal slashes won't even touch him  XD

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

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:

I'd love for Namco to do a successor to the Star Wars fighting game that was on the PS1.

This is going to be EPIC.

But maybe not as epic as Smash Bros. Brawl...

Well, she's in keeping with the trend of SC IV moving up a cup-size.
