For those of us who have (Or in one person's case use) a PS3 or Xbox 360, SC4 is right around the courner (the 29th). Also the big topic regarding this game is whether to get the 360 version for Yoda or the PS3 version for Darth Vader. Well there is a blank slate for each verision that is right next to Starkiller (Darth Vader's secret apprentice from the Force Unleashed game). Well just like the consoles Yoda is better than Vader, and Vader will likely be a dlc character. There are now, new super moves that can only be pulled off in certain conditions called critical finishes and for the most part are awesome (except for talim). Also the return of the character custimization is back from three and is improved now. The improvments are now they actually boost your attack, defence, speed etc...

However theere are no more joke weapons which I find devestating because they were hilarious.

So who here is getting this game. Also for some unknown reason I cant find Vader's critical finish.


Everyone's Critical finish but Vader and Starkillers'

Here is the achievment list for the 360 verision

I must say the "May the Force be with You" Achievment looks incredibly awesome; to bad its only 20 gamerscore

Vader Yoda analysis, intresting read, it is really the only analysis we have on either of them and how they fair in the game.

what first comes to my mind when I think soul calibur IV: Ivy's a creepy whore, Kilik is usually awesome, old movie theaters and gamecubes rock, and you can usually beat the game without blocking. OH and Link was VERY out of place in my opinion in the last game. Lol, this game soul calibur will feature.... META KNIGHT (then I suddenly thought about what would happen if the game really did have meta knight and started drooling)

Ah yes Soul Calibur. Love it. I remember being 7 years old and mashing buttons while playing Soul Edge. Me and a couple of friends once played SC II for 5 hours straight. I didn't really like SC III. Partly because I had no one to play it with, most of my friends were into WoW at the time, and partly because they destroyed my favorite character Raphael. I liked him because he looked bad ass and because our names are alike. Rapahel : Rafay. Anyone?

SC2 was all about Astaroth. Brutal ownage >:D

I never got SC3, and I'm sure as hell not going to buy a PS3 just for SC4. I lol'd at Darth Vader being in it >___>

Now that I have spent quality time playing this game, I have learned two things.

a) Yoda is incredibly cheap, attacks go over his head, and it is impossible to throw him.

b) The game disc has both playable yoda and vader data, someone has either hacked the game disc. Or there is some password/ code he figured out or got from Namco
