I just peed a little.
This is TOTALLY facepalm worthy. Star Wars in Soul Calibur?!
*Facepalm*
Please tell me this is just a prank.
Spawn, Heihachi, and Link were in SCII.
Its not a prank.

......
GTFO.
Then again, Soul Calibur is supposed to "Transcend History", so I suppose Characters from the Future wouldn't be IMPOSSIBLE...
MEGAMAN CULD B IN IT U GUYZ!
BRACE UR SLEVEZ.
*Shot.*
Why god...why?

Seriously, though. Wouldn't their LightSabers either Reflect off of the Metal of the other Characters' Swords, Shields, and Armor, or just cut straight through them?
*FACEPALM TO END ALL FACEPALMS*

This is an unholy alliance that will not be forgotten. If they add anyone else that doesn't belong, it will be Neon Genisis Evangelion alllll over agian.

How do they even fit into the Story?! Unless they won't be using LightSabers at all. I suppose they do kinda fit into Soul Calibur's whole "Light Vs, Darkness" fetish as well.
Soul Calibur's story is supposed to transcend time and space, so...
(Now I can make a custom character based off a X1 Sigma and give him a light-saber! ;D)

(0_0) oh, good God, Loki.
Don't do it! X0
Wait a second. Then again... Does that mean that I could use a LightSaber? All of a sudden I'm starting to warm up to this idea...
DragonZero
10-01-08, 00:48
Hm. Well, that is kinda cool.
I guess they could even say that the LightSabers were MAGICAL. :D

But with X000 years of technological advance, wouldn't they have a ridiculous advantage over the other fighters?
Oh right, I forgot, it's fantasy. It doesn't have to make sense.

Something tells me that Soul Calibur III is going to be the best "Soul Series" Game...

I liked III. >_>
Don't you mean IV?
Fluttershy
10-01-08, 02:24
No, he means that IV is gonna suck and that III is going to be considered the best one in the series.
DragonZero
10-01-08, 02:27
'Tis a possibility, methinks.
But I still have III, and it still PWNs, so no worries. :D

Star Wars is futuristic, BUT, it isn't in the future. Try finding the intro again, and listen to it.
Do I hear something indicating that Star Wars happened many centuries ago? Yesh I did.
And am I the only one who liked this the second I saw this?

Their technology is still advanced enough to warrant my point, future or not :P

*Laughs so hard I suicide with heart palpataions*
*Realises Darth Vader could just stab his sabre into the ground and then proceed to force choke anyone who opposes him* >_<;;

While you guys are all off criticising the lack of realism in a goddamned videogame, I'm going to be having fun beating the shit out of Nightmare with a lightsaber.
turpinator
10-01-08, 08:54
I'm not criticising it, I honestly think that would be an awsome in-game move. ;D And the reason why I laughed is because this caught me off guard. XP
Though it would be neat if fighting arenas had moveable objects, then the characters respectfully could use force throw to chuck them at the opponent.

:) The Soul Swords have met their match ;)
EDIT: I wonder if the programming team of Soul Calibur will take into account Vader's Lightsaber Shien/Djem So style, or will they come up with a brand new random saber style with no real form?

...Oh what the hell. I think this may possibly ruin the game for me.
WHY?

Oh, shit. I just pissed myself. In the library, no less.
SC 4 better have a Create-a-Character. (Hello KOTOR Characters!)
It better.
Now I can make Zello.
With out a helmet...
And Soul.
Yayzorzrs.
Oh, shit. I just pissed myself. In the library, no less.
SC 4 better have a Create-a-Character. (Hello KOTOR Characters!)
More like "Hello Custom Made X1 Sigma!"
I hope to some deity out there they improved their CAS... Soul Calibur 3 was nice already but CAS was the cherry on top that made it even better (other than the fact Sieg is back to being Sieg).
...
I've never played Soul Calibur, so I don't care.
Although, the video game world needs more old, short, green men? Yes, the video game world needs more old, short, green men.

Good god people, have any of you taken into consideration that Yoda and Vader are SPECIAL CHARACTERS? And thus, they most likely won't have a place in the storyline?
Ryo Hazaki
13-01-08, 16:37
Heihachi, Link, and Spawn all had their own place in SC2's story.

Yeah and it explained that Link suddenly appeared in the Soul Calibur world while he was playing his Ocarina (or something to that extent) and that the fact that it was rumoured Soul Edge (Soul Calibur, can't remember which one was the one being sought out in this game again XP) had enough power to send Link back to his homeworld.

i hope the Character creation has a long black robe, since xemnas wields a lightsaber like weapon.

Too bad it'll never have those insignia like on his coat. XD
Yoda better speak good Yoda speech.
Shouldn't a lightsaber cut through a piece of mere metal?!

Because the metal (and wooden) weapons are imbued with magic.
Surely that should make some kind of sense. XD
