'Dark Apprentice' shows some moves in Soul Calibur IV vid
Oh, and if you care, the video also shows a tiny bit more of the actual non tie-in Soul Calibur cast.

Somebody please name this F*cker already!
FOXHOUND @ Jun 6th 2008 1:54PM
Porkins Jr., Dark Apprentice.
DeadPlasmaCell @ Jun 6th 2008 1:58PM
FOXHOUND FTW! If you get to name him in the game, that's what I'm going to use. Fantastic
BlackFreefall @ Jun 6th 2008 2:04PM
Starkiller. So original.
Obie @ Jun 6th 2008 6:20PM
How the hell are we supposed to care of some generic looking no-name, non-canon douche? Whatever, not for me.
Bouille @ Jun 8th 2008 12:38PM
Luke Skywalker????
Jackson @ Jun 8th 2008 7:51PM
He is canon, actually. It's been stated that Force Unleashed will be the first Star Wars title in a while to add to the canon, so...maybe his name is kind of important *shrug*. I'm just sayin'.
JontheNinja @ Jun 6th 2008 1:53PM
I don't care. I'd still fking run the other way when I see some shiny black robot guy breathing weird and running around with a red laser.
Glitch W @ Jun 6th 2008 2:03PM
Why is this post just tagged Microsoft Xbox 360, shouldn't it be PS3 as well? Just saying.
Hamza @ Jun 6th 2008 2:45PM
JOYSTIQ IS TOBIAS!
Hamza @ Jun 6th 2008 2:46PM
Don't worry, I downvoted myself for that predictable meme.
ogvor @ Jun 6th 2008 4:18PM
Don't worry Hamza, for some reason your spelling of teh bais as TOBAIS cracked me up. Great Job!
BIGGEN (LIVE-PSN: BIGGEN1103) @ Jun 6th 2008 2:07PM
this game seems so odd. that being said, i'll be using vader.
Bigfoot @ Jun 6th 2008 2:09PM
Star Wars characters in Soul Calibur..
What's next? Mortal Kombat characters fighting comic book characters?
BlackFreefall @ Jun 6th 2008 2:14PM
New Street Fighters' characters that look like King of Fighters characters.
FOXHOUND @ Jun 6th 2008 2:19PM
Don't forget the trend of new(or brought back)morbidly obese characters moving "with the quickness" in 3D fighting games too...
Robobagins @ Jun 6th 2008 2:35PM
Foxhound have you never seen Sumo?
Also just because someone is large doesn't mean they can't be fast or strong. Hell Marvel's Kingpin is famous for being super big and bulky and looking obese while only having 1% body fat.
Benny @ Jun 7th 2008 5:39AM
Marvel's Kingpin is also famous for not being real.
Brian Fantana @ Jun 6th 2008 2:23PM
I hate to admit it, but from all the vids, Yoda look cooler than Vader. Vader looks a little stiff.
But, Vaders apprentice looks like better than both. He looks like he could actually fit in SC.
aristokrat @ Jun 6th 2008 3:11PM
Why don't they put both characters in every version? It's so dumb to separate them out and make people choose.
jcd @ Jun 6th 2008 2:35PM
"Partial nudity"
"Sexual themes"
lol
Atr-Slzr-Ctr @ Jun 6th 2008 2:41PM
Awesome, Im buying it for the PS3. Still, Namco should release it in the damn Wii, ya know, just put Obi-Wan as its exclusive character!
Freeze @ Jun 6th 2008 2:43PM
I still say Kain and Raziel would of been perfect for Soul Calibur weilding their blood/soul weavers instead of those geeks. Not to mention Darth Vader after 30 some odd years haven't even got a makeover. n00b.
Fragmit @ Jun 6th 2008 2:48PM
Darth Vader? A makeover? Who the hell are you, Oprah?
The Artist formally known as Jesus @ Jun 6th 2008 2:58PM
A makeover for Vader would be FABULOUS
Bigfoot @ Jun 6th 2008 3:37PM
Vader got a makeover a long time ago, n00b.

Why not just have the team that makes soul calibur make a great star wars fighting game instead of adding characters that don't fit in to soul calibur's world to soul calibur.
I'm sure lots of people will disagree with me but just thought I'd add my 2 cents.
merf1350 @ Jun 6th 2008 3:13PM
No, I totally agree. Remake Teras Kasi and add a ton more character with many more exotic styles and weapons. I think it's a great idea...admittedly I was probably the only person on the planet that didn't hate MoTK.
On a side note, I have fond memories of infinite lightsaber battles on hard...I tried to make them last forever without getting hit, or actually landing a hit. Fun times.
Freeze @ Jun 6th 2008 2:58PM
Fragmit posted- Darth Vader? A makeover? Who the hell are you, Oprah?
No, I'm Blackfreefall, FOXHOUND, Hillary, Obama, Hiro Nockamora, Ronald McDonald
ChooChooCharlie (MK 0430-8740-2222) @ Jun 6th 2008 3:01PM
I hope they nerf Raphael in this one. He had some really cheap moves in SC2.
Grimble Crumble @ Jun 6th 2008 3:54PM
"Show me your moves!!!"
Toasty @ Jun 6th 2008 4:38PM
Anyone else notice that Vader used his "Emperor Chuck" move from ROTJ to ring out some n00b? That's going to be really fun to do.
Also PARTIAL NUDITY BTOAREOGOGREAOO!??W!?FEWA
Mozgus @ Jun 6th 2008 4:41PM
Seems like a new SC3 trailer every 3 days...
Neowyrm @ Jun 6th 2008 4:48PM
I'm sure you mean SC4. Right?
Lord Bowser @ Jun 7th 2008 6:02AM
NO, he means SC3.
This is SC3.

Mozgus @ Jun 7th 2008 1:10PM
Guys. I get it. Jesus.
Benny @ Jun 9th 2008 7:22PM
Oh, sorry Mozgus; I knew you just made a mistake. My post was aimed at Lord Douche.
Mozgus @ Jun 6th 2008 4:50PM
Correct, sorry. Been playing SC3 a lot lately.
ZeroCorpse @ Jun 6th 2008 7:57PM
No actual wounding = No sale
It's time for Soul Calibur to grow the hell up and stop using practice swords.
cyberfrog @ Jun 6th 2008 9:10PM
so... me wants just a straight up all star wars characters fighting game with soul calibur engine pretty please?
Psaakyrn @ Jun 7th 2008 2:20AM
Seeing how much air time the Star Wars characters are getting, think might as well be a Star Wars fighting game, with added SC characters..
Ves @ Jun 7th 2008 1:02PM
Lovely cheeky smile at the end.
Jadis47 @ Jun 7th 2008 4:40PM
Yes, I don't think SW characters belong in SC4.
Yes, I hate Lucas for whoring out Star Wars yet again.
Yes, I'm upset that the game has *exclusive characters for each console.
Yes, I think Starkiller looks like a ninja reject from Batman Begins.
But I'll still be buying this game. And that's all they really care about, isn't it?
