Soulcalibur IV - Secret Apprentice reveal

Published 6 June, 2008 Duration 1:39

You'll have seen the beginning of this video before, or at least you will if you've been paying attention, but stick with it until the end and you'll notice a cunning crossover with Activision's The Force Unleashed. We can only imagine the legal nightmare which preceded this particular deal...

    So are they adding robocop next?

    That would be teh AWESOME!!! He could punch them with his fist spike data jack thingy!!!1!....

    Ok on a serious note I quite like this guest character trend in beat em ups. It's not as if they are most serious games in the world or that it'll really harm the deep and complex storylines. Although saying that I can't see Yoda working. Surely all the moves will just go over his head. The size difference will break it.

    So in summary; guests good if appropriately sized. So no Frodo Baggins guesting in a Gundam game. (and before you post it having him piloting a giant robot suit himself would just be silly.)

    i think thats somewhat the point. He might be too short to hit, but like wise he can be twarted by down and block ;)

    I think yoda is an excellent adition and can see him being a real challenge to master.

    @Groovicron
    Of course he wouldn't pilot it himself, the other hobits would control different parts :D :p

    I didn't think it through did I? :)

    Oh now, smacks of desperation, especially considering the forced unleashed is looking like the mass-multiformat turd of the year. They'd have been better off keeping their distance.

    They should just go the whole hog and make Soul Calibur with Jedi/Sith characters. There's enough of 'em now for sure.
