They're doing it. Those fuckers at Capcom are actually doing it.

The trailer looked nice but I have little faith. Why you ask? Because if they aren't just publishing I am not sure they have the people with the skills.

Trailer looks nice, but it is no SoulCalibur. And SoulCalibur > everything else when it comes to fighting games, IMO.

Just got Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria for PS2 yesterday (apparently the game came out this month in germany, but was out long before FF XII in america?). Awesome game, I really dig the unique combat system, and the fact that you have more then the usual 5-6 characters available for the party.

Looks like Vivendi and Activision merged to create Activision Blizzard.

Rumors are that there will be a Knights of the Old Republic MMO, how awesome is that? I loved both KOTOR games, as does pretty much any roleplayer I know of.

I just realised something.

Darth Vader in SoulCalibur IV?

What?

Are you serious?

Yeah, I just found that out today. Probably a bit late, but just saw it.

Its being discussed in the PS3 thread. An oddity yes, but guest characters aren't new to Soul Calibur.

Yep, he's only following in the footsteps of Link, Spawn and Heihachi.

Wonder if they'll have the Empire music in the background of his level?

I would rather have them had used Guts.

But then there wouldn't be any point in having any other fighters because Guts could kill them all in a single swing :D

Wow i finaly have a soulmate in this forum :lol:

I have been Soul Calibur fan since the uber cool days of Soul Blade and dreamcast's Soul Calibur. I have been lonely in this forum for that love ever since i joined in 2005. People here think Tekken is good/great, Guilty Gear or whatever. Best thing Dreamcast wasnt Shenmue who died away but it was for showing the world Soul Calibur.

Nice to finaly see someone with great taste.

Soul Calibur games i buy without even bothering with reviews and stuff. Its the only fighting series i have faith in. I dropped Tekken after Tekken 4. Street Fighter i havent played for real since mid 90's. Soul Calibur is the best FIGHTING EVER IMO.

Yay finally another one who recognises Soul Calibur as the gem it is :D

I too have been playing it since its days as Soul Blade on the PSX.

Soul Calibur is OK.

Not the best fighter out there in any conceivable way.

Probably my favorite 3D fighter though.

Speaking of Soul Calibur. They just released the box art for the 360 and PS3 versions:

i just noticed this, but Namco just basically said PS3 is the dark side and the Xbox360 is the light side... meaning ps3 is evil...
