Returning Soul Calibur IV fighters: Rock, Talim, Yoshimitsu
by Ludwig Kietzmann 
{ Apr 28th 2008 at 5:45PM }
"Hi, we'd like to speak to the Soul Calibur IV designer, please."
"Is this Joystiq? Again?"
"No. Yes. Sorry."
"I told you to stop phoning. We are never, never, ever going to put Snuffleupagus into the game."
"Not even as DLC?"
"Sir, do you have a legitimate request for him? He's quite busy with intensive mammary modeling."
"Just one: Tell him it would rock if he would introduce Yoshi to Sue in the game."
"Alright, by 'legitimate,' I meant something that would actually make sense."
"TALIM it would ROCK if he could have YOSHI MEET SUE. In Soul Calibur IV."
"Who are Yoshi and Sue?"
"No no, Yoshimitsu. It's sort of a pun, you see. There's also --"
"Let me stop you there, sir. Was there something, perhaps an unexplained supernatural force or the imminent threat of death, that prevented you from asking the question like a normal human being?"
"Oh, come on! Humor is Taki that opens the door to a healthy relationship. Yoda last one I should have to explain this to and ... what was that clicking sound? Hello? Are you still there?"

Gehodra @ Apr 28th 2008 10:01PM
I'm with you. That was bad.
Vegnagun bwf @ Apr 28th 2008 10:23PM
You take yourself too seriously.
Sir Fidlious Wong (Zeon Defense Force) @ Apr 28th 2008 5:52PM
Ludwig posts are always apparent, and a glory to read.
Jerk Face @ Apr 28th 2008 11:16PM
I'm with you, man. Ludwig is my fucking hero!
Varone @ Apr 28th 2008 5:53PM
That was hilarious, but what the hell was that giant HP advert doing between the home page and this one?! If you guys need money just say so, but please remove those!
Varone @ Apr 28th 2008 5:55PM
Someone please confirm they saw it too and that I don't have spyware. I thought I had this puppy locked down tight.
voodoo_craig @ Apr 28th 2008 5:56PM
That ad proper stuffed up! I couldn't skip it! Get them down! The ones for that silly car are bad enough, I will not put up with page ads as well!
JerJer @ Apr 28th 2008 5:56PM
sorry bro...
Ludwig Kietzmann @ Apr 28th 2008 5:57PM
Could you guys describe the offending ad, please?
makishima @ Apr 28th 2008 6:00PM
I had one too for Intel I think, I dunno exactly what it was I closed the whole window after it wouldn't let me skip the ad. But yeah the big full page ads in between pages? Please remove
voodoo_craig @ Apr 28th 2008 6:00PM
It was black and there was a Hummingbird, didn't get to see any more of it.
GatorSax2010 @ Apr 28th 2008 6:57PM
I saw it earlier today, but only once. I was frightened.
Tiptup300 @ Apr 28th 2008 11:38PM
Adblock Plus, DO IT!
SLSSNAKE @ Apr 28th 2008 5:55PM
This is why I read Joystiq. Sure, I can get the "news" anywhere, but I don't get to laugh like I do when I read a Ludwig post.
deaftly @ Apr 28th 2008 5:57PM
*golf clap*
Bravo Ludwig.
Varone @ Apr 28th 2008 5:59PM
It was a black page with a centre flash advert for HP Centrino laptops in the middle, and a skip commercial link in the very top right.
Varone @ Apr 28th 2008 6:01PM
In response to Ludwig's reply on my previous comment.
Mr Khan @ Apr 28th 2008 6:16PM
So THAT's why my whole screen has been going black, that ad must be trying to come up, but is being voided out by Ad Blocker
Here i thought the site was going buggy
RobLink (MKWii code : 0989 1866 6646) @ Apr 28th 2008 6:27PM
In response to Mr Khan. I thought this wasn't affecting me, but I had exactly that earlier.

It's hard to tell but I think Talim's regular sized breasts are back
xeleion @ Apr 28th 2008 9:02PM
True, but she's wearing less clothing this time around (like every other female Soulcalibur character) and now her pants are see-through. Lolilolilolilol.
syrik zero @ Apr 28th 2008 6:06PM
Thanks for the laugh =P
yanipheonu @ Apr 28th 2008 6:13PM
YAAAAAAAAAAAAY TALIM!!!

I like her new artwork.
CJLopez @ Apr 28th 2008 6:17PM
"Is this Joystiq? Again?"
"No. Yes. Sorry."
JUST LOL!!!!
jajajajaja, man, best news of 2008 so far, xD
CJLopez @ Apr 28th 2008 6:19PM
Also this
"Sir, do you have a legitimate request for him? He's quite busy with intensive mammary modeling."
Just pure gold!!!!!
Ranus Studios @ Apr 28th 2008 7:17PM
Some places bring news to the party; Joystiq brings the Ludwig.
DangerMouse @ Apr 28th 2008 7:18PM
Sue is a slut. Don't even bother.
BPM [SSBB: 5026 4120 1186] @ Apr 29th 2008 1:23AM
Yoshi likes loose ladies.
Chase @ Apr 28th 2008 7:39PM
Ludwig, because the official committee is so short-sighted and will snob you, I whip out my own golden Nobel Prize and give it to you.
Ah, cold hands!
Mainman @ Apr 28th 2008 8:38PM
You heard a KILIK sound at the end? IVY feeling they're getting tired of you.
Calling up developers for info like this must be a NIGHTMARE.
Yourself @ Apr 28th 2008 8:38PM
I shall assist your suicide!
That line pretty much made SCII for me.
BPM [SSBB: 5026 4120 1186] @ Apr 29th 2008 1:24AM
A raging fire becomes dying embers.
Namu namu namu namu namu namu namu namu...
mezzanine @ Apr 28th 2008 8:44PM
LUDWIG YOU F'N KRAI-Z!!!!
but wheretf did the Snuffy idea come from
Vegnagun bwf @ Apr 28th 2008 10:23PM
Obvious Ludwig post is awesome.
SharpBlade @ Apr 28th 2008 10:44PM
Here I thought I was going to be the only one feeding Ludwigs writing ego! haha
Another brilliant posting and another opportunity for my co-workers to think I'm crazy as I laugh out loud again for seemingly no reason to them.
Joystiq FTW!
Cesaria (MKW:2621-2994-1376) @ Apr 28th 2008 10:44PM
Do we have a confirmation of Ivy yet? I pwned with her sexy ass.
BPM [SSBB: 5026 4120 1186] @ Apr 29th 2008 1:25AM
... You're kidding, right? She was one of the first reveals for SC4 (and quite a revealing reveal, too!).

TheHuntIsOn @ Apr 29th 2008 4:11AM
A shame fighting games aren't as good as they once where.
SF4 and Brawl are all the industry needs now. There's no point in arguing that either, soz.
KobeBryunt @ Apr 29th 2008 5:17AM
Looking forward to this
phil @ Apr 29th 2008 2:20PM
hahahaha(snort)!
MiBeau @ Apr 29th 2008 2:54PM
TheHuntIsON:
Brawl is not a real fighting game, and please dont compare it to SC cuz this game is totally not your type.
xeleion @ Apr 29th 2008 3:23PM
MiBeau:
Please. STFU. Kthnx.
Sabi @ Apr 29th 2008 3:33PM
i like the puns.. thumbs up!
