    Epic. I saw this earlier. I also heard that you would be able to some (in some form) force powers.. damn i can’t wait. I was gonna wait till the game came down in price before, but now i just can’t XD Vader is Epic!

  13. blackholesun's avatar blackholesun says:

    Hey, if Master Chief can be in Dead or Alive 4, why not this then?
    Can’t wait to try it out.

  14. Dave L's avatar Dave L says:

    The Darth one is cool, but Yoda….. c’mon, it was wrong to make him into a hyperactive little dancing midget in Attack of the Clones, and it’s equally wrong to remind us of that by putting him in this game.

    “isn’t necessarily a big surprise” – what is with comments like this (even if your was or wasn’t sarcastic). The interwebs are buzzing with statements like that, however nobody ever called it *tisk *tisk.

    Furthermore I think this is the cancer that killing fighters!!!

    NOT HAPPY!

  17. MarkMan's avatar MarkMan says:

    Hey, did you bother to read/comprehend what was written up there?

    What we tried to convey is, the notion of GUEST CHARACTERS is not a surprise(cuz really, if you thought there weren’t going to be guest characters, you probably don’t know any better)….

    It obviously WAS NOT sarcastic… if you read the immediate following line it says:

    “The addition of these two characters IS”

    Which is in direct reference to guest characters. So I don’t know what the point of your post is, or what you’re trying to point out.

    So whatever ‘cancer’ you think is killing fighting games… it won’t be found here… we do nothing but promote them.

    To Dick_007:

    Your name says it all. lol. The only cancer to games is people like you.

    But anyway, I was hoping to hear some impression from MarkMan. As in, did you get to play it? I know the 360 version was there but was there any sign of the PS3 version? And I see Ubisoft is publishing the game for a Summer 2008 release in EU. That the same date with the US/JA regions or perhaps earlier? Keep up the good work!

    So all highs are probably going to go right over Yoda’s head… :D Anyway, wish it would have been Darth Maul instead of Yoda.

  21. nightofthesun's avatar nightofthesun says:

    this is all cool to me… but i dislike having seperae bonus chars for different systems… i am cool with vader for ps3, but i also want to use yoda although itll be tough as ever to hit him with certain horizontal and kick attacks…

    I hope you would not have reservations if I posted a part of this on my univeristy blog?
