You don't know how fucking livid that makes me.

[Dr. V]

Link made sense, Spawn, ehh I can buy it. That guy from Tekken, pushing it. This? Just doesn't work for me.

[Fathom Zero]

Heihachi doesn't even have a weapon. I didn't get it.

But I did dig Spawn.

[Emu]

Wow, I wonder how many sales they just lost. I know they just lost mine.

[Chojin]

haahahahahaa

[Sam]

At first when I saw the Namco logo all I could think was "The King of the Cosmos is in this."

But i was wrong.

[Emu]

I would've bought it for that

[CaptainBubba]

AHAHAHAHAHA I just can't imagine who in the industry could've ever thought that was a decent idea

[Emu]

Maybe it's a January Fool's Joke

[Neen]

These characters don't really lend themselves to a lot of unlockables; what other costumes can any of them possible have? A pink helmet and cloak for Vader? And what about the oh-so-important swords? What other blades from Star Wars in any extended universe lends itself besides differen't colored sabres?

And what, no Fett for the Wii?

[Emu]

The characters themselves are probably unlockables.

[Dr. V]

They say it's Yoda for 360 and Vader for PS3. I'd prefer the new guy from The Force Unleashed on Wii.

[executioneer]

what the fuck, hahah

who comes up with the ideas for new characters in these games, thirteen-year-old boys?

[Dr. Boogie]

I came to this thread thinking it was just going to be another "I don't like the new art style" thread, but that made my day.

[argonath]

Finally, someone is paying homage to the awesomeness of Masters of Teras Kasi!

This is just really, really silly.

[Madman914]

OK Jimmy how do you like our new game?
jimmy: It's ok...i guess.
Well what do you think could make it better, sharper graphics? a better frame rate? how about some more unlockable costumes?
Jimmy: star wars
I'm sorry what?
Jimmy: Star Wars
jimmy I don't think it needs....
Jimmy: STAR WARS DAMNIT!
fine.....damn boss's kid.

It looked like Soul Calibur until the last minute.

ANNOUNCER: "But the Swords may have just met their match..."

(Deep Breathing Noises)

ME: (thinking) No, it cant be. Its too stupid.

(video cuts to Darth Vader and Yoda fighting Knights, Samurai and Ninja)

ME: .......

[Girl Drink Drunk]

I guess this would have made sense about 3 years ago.

[CaptainBubba]

I wonder if anyone thinks this was a good idea. Even the gaming websites aren't really speaking positively about it. Just kind of objectively reporting on it. Honestly its just horribly silly.

[Angryhydralisk]

Something tells me it could be worse. But this is still hilarious.

That post is just as terrible as the inclusion of those characters.

[Pentegarn]

I remember seeing a chocolate gumball in a magazine once.

The review of it went like this:

"Chocolate? Good. Gumball? Good. Chocolate gumball? Bad.

I think that can be applied here only replacing Chocolate with Star Wars and Gumball with Soul Calibur.

[Spetsnaz]

I have lost all faith in this franchise.

[Zbu Manowar]

Wow.

You know, it seems stupid. But then again, Tony Hawk also had friggin Spidey as a secret character, complete with his black suit, his Spider Armor from Web #100, and the freaking Captain Universe suit.

If it doesn't interfere with the story and is treated as an experiment in fanwank, it can work. Otherwise, it just seems a stupid waste of everybody's time. That, and Vader and Yoda should be in BOTH games and shouldn't be a console exclusive. That's just stupid.

And where is Maul? That would have been sweeter.
