Vader now available to buy on Xbox live.Presume Yoda is on PSN now then ?.Cost 400 MS points (about £3),thats like 10% of the cost the game for 1 extra character.A total con but had to get him !.
Forgot to mention he's actually pretty useless as a character.Looks really cool but I find his movement is a bit too slow.When I was using him,trying to be all clever using the force my daughter wanted a game and kicked my ass 3 games in a row !.

Anyone sick of 'one kick wonders' when playing this on live ?.I seem to find cheats who just repeatedly carry out the same move and its REALLY annoying.Only chance is to block ,try and get away from them and then hit them with an unblockable attack,then repeat.Its no fun doing that though.I still find it most fun on local multiplayer,where you can hit your mates for real if they start cheating !.

Not sure about Anakin, then he could face his future self?!
Maybe they'll do something to tie in with the Clone Wars movie?

I might get this for the 360, due to my lack of fighting games without the words "Smash Bros" in the title.

Possible DLC at some point may include other Star Wars characters.
Darth Maul anyone? Luke/Obi Wan?

If I win another GAD then it's a possibility, but I really really need that Dualshock first!

I got this game saturday morning (dam post didnt come friday!!) and i have to say it is a brilliant game, i heard the online was laggy, but i played against someone with a 2 bar connection and it was still pretty much perfect with the occasional bit of lag, anything over 2 bars is fine!
The graphics are nice, the characetr creation is fun etc etc. Really would suggest getting this game! Going to post a full review in a bit.

That date went ages ago mate.Base (the old dvd.co.uk) still have it showing but its not correct.Namco have stated recently its unlikely be out this year (maybe December in Japan ?).HMV are the only retailer who are listing a revised date for it (20th Feb 2009) : Here
Be great if turns up before then but I would be surprised if it did. |

It was supposed to be end of this year (as was Streetfighter IV) but all has gone very quiet on both of them at the moment (regarding release dates).Neither of them are looking likely to turn up until early next year.

For anyone who needs to know how to unlock characters (Xbox 360 version,presume PS3 will be the same ?):
I think I've got them all?.If not please add to the thread :
Amy,Cervantes,Yun-Seoung,Lizardman,Rock,Seong Mina,Setsuka,Sophitia,Yoshimitsu and Zasalamel can all be bought from Character creation for 4000 gold pieces each.Story mode seems to give out more points than the arcade mode.You'll get enough points to get them all after a few runs through it.
Algol : complete story mode with a character who has him as the final boss (I used Taki).
Schererazade : beat her in story mode (most characters meet her I used Yoda).
Angol : defeat her in story mode with Scheherazade.
Ashlotte : beat her in story mode with Talim.
Kamikiri... : beat her in story mode with Cassandra.
Shura : beat her in story mode with Cervantes.
The Apprentice : beat him in arcade mode with Yoda (presume its Vader in PS3 version ?)
Hope this helps.

The Apprentice is a bad boy for sure !,if anything though he feels a bit too powerful ? (you seem to be able to floor anyone using him).My mate just got the PS3 version and he reckons Vader is a bit of a wuss !.Yoda is fun to wind people up with but annoying as hell to fight against.Most attacks go straight over the green sods head and he can't be picked up at all.You can basically only kick him like a football or if he jumps,swot him like a fly !.Once the novelty has worn off he's not a character I reckon I will use a great deal to be honest.There have been loads of rumours that Vader will available to buy from Xbox marketplace around October time,if thats true then Yoda will obviously be available on PSN.

I heard the apprentice is kick ass - he meant to be a solid player and better than Vader, but i will deffo be using some form of lightsaber a lot! Yoda is rumoured to be downloadable in the future, probably for a fiver or something stupid like that.
Also looking forward to seeing how the Ps3 trophy system will work. First game to use it i think, and will be a nice feature!

Depends on your own connection as much as the server the game is being hosted on.
I'll get it at some point, need to get a Dual Shock first for my PS3 though. I'll probably get the game on the PS3 because I prefer Darth to Yoda and prefer the pad for fighting games (and the 360 one for driving games).

The 360 version has been fine on line so far ?,no lag for me.If the problems are relating to the PS3 version can't believe it won't be sorted.Been playing it since 4pm this afternoon and my fingers are killing now !.Reckon i'll have to give it rest until tomorrow.The good news is Emmie you won't be disappointed with it when it arrives,its a top game.

Yoda is fun to use but really annoying to fight against.The Apprentice (from the forthcoming Star Wars : Force Unleashed) is a badass though !.Only thing that lets the 360 version down is I find the controller is not the best for fighting games and Soul Calibur IV is no exception.Other the that its the best beat em up currently available by a mile.

Ive got it on Xbox 360,arrived in yesterdays post which was a nice surprise.Its pretty much what I hoped it would be to be honest.The graphics are fantastic and its very easy to pick up and play.There are some nice additions to the series,a power bar which fills up and when full you can deliver Mortal Kombat style 'critical finishes',a story mode (bit like a tournament) and of course the online play.Other than that its 'business as usual'.Loads of Americans are already on Xbox live playing it as the game came out last week in the US.If you liked the previous Soul Calibur games,or indeed like beat em ups in general I doubt this is going to disappoint.I intend to do a review for it once i've played it a bit more.In the mean time I hope this helps anyone who has been considering buying it.
