"Soul Caliber IV"

I've just read somewhere that Soul Caliber IV will feature two special characters. The XBOX 360 will feature YODA and the PS3 version will include DARTH VADAR.

I wasn't too sure about Soul Caliber as I have never played Sould Caliber 4's predecessors but the new screenshots look pretty good so I may have to give this game a go when it comes out on July 29th.

Tekken 6 is advertised as being released on 20th Feb 2009. So I think I will have to buy Soul Caliber IV to fill the void in the fighting genre.

I am really thinking about getting this. I recieved one of my GAD vouchers (thanks) and think i may have to give this a go, i have owned and played all the other ones and am i right that this one will be online??? that will be the selling point for me.

Also does anyone know a release for Tekken 6??

Im thinking:

Tekken 6
Street Fighter IV
Soul Caliber 4
Mortal Kombat vs DC

I reckon the order will be:

Streetfighter IV
Soul Calibur IV
Tekken 6
Mortal Kombat vs DS Universe

I'm not sure about Mortal Kombat but I will be getting the other 3 for sure.

So do you think Soul Caliber IV will be better than Tekken 6, Street Fighter IV and Mortal Kombat vs DS Universe?

Soul Calibur is Tekken with swords pretty much.The series is made by the same developers as the Tekken series.I have this on order as I love Soul Calibur games.They are very easy to get into.You can practice for hours learning killer moves and combo's only to play your kids who mindlessly bash all the buttons and kick your butt !.Seriously get a game between 2 players of a similar level and this series is one of my favourite beat em ups.The controls are very similar to the Tekken series so you will feel right at home with it if you have played those games before.Yoda is exclusive to the 360,Vader to the PS3.Lots of rumours saying Vader will available to buy from Xbox marketplace after a couple of months (if thats true then Yoda will obviously be available via PSN).I'm not really bothered to be honest as I reckon they have only been included as a sales gimmick and will probably not be as good as Soul Calibur's own characters anyway.

Here is clip of the game in action for anyone who hasn't seen it running :
