Vader VS Yoda video leaked!
LINK... Confirmed?

(7-28-08)
Vader & Yoda in both versions of SCIV!?
This rumor has been floating around the net for a while now, and it's slowly turning into a confirmation. Firstly, the character selection screen speaks louder than words, since there's an awkward "empty block" next to Vader and Yoda respectively (on apparent completed character selection screens)... CLICK HERE to see a completed(?) selection screen.

Recently, GamersReports got their hands on some screenshots (and video, however, it has since been taken down) that depict Vader and Yoda on the same console. Check out one of the leaked screens below...


So... What side are you on?

Marvel president hints on MvC3!?!?
 At 2008's San Diego Comic-con, Kevin Feige, President of Production at Marvel Studios was asked if a new Marvel VS Capcom game was possible. His reply was, "Yes. And maybe sooner than you think." This doesn't officially confirm Marvel VS Capcom 3 by any means, but it finally gives us loyal MvC2 fans some realistic hope. In fact, if Capcom used the Tatsunoko VS Capcom graphics and gameplay engine; they could indeed push out a new Marvel VS Capcom title rather easily... And if Tatsunoko VS Capcom never comes out in the US (due to licensing issues), perhaps we can settle for Marvel VS Capcom 3 instead. It would surely be an instant hit... But of course it's up to Capcom and Marvel to make it happen!


Yes, this picture is like 6 years old... And fake.

 Bandai Namco is planning to release a plethora of downloadable content for Soul Calibur IV! Already confirmed is a download called "Customize Parts 01" which includes parts of Nightmare's 1P, Astaroth's 2P, and Voldo's 3P costumes from Soul Calibur II as well as a bit from Soul Calibur III's Create-a-Soul parts! Also confirmed are "Download BGM All Tracks" and "Download BGM 01-17" ...No details on those yet, but I'm guessing they're from one of the prequels! More details on further downloads as they arise!

Revenant confirmed for SCIV?
The wave sword user from Soul Calibur 3, Revenant, appears to be a bonus character for SCIV; and is likely not the only bonus character! One of my sources claimed Revenant was the new "all-weapons user" for SCIV, but this was just a "speculation" from the screenshot below, as Revenant appears to be using Cervantes's weapon style... Nothing is "confirmed" as of yet. *Note* The screenshots below are from the French language version of SCIV, hence the name Dark Vador...

Jack Skellington's great great grandfather perhaps?

New SCIV character revealed!?
Another one? Yup. "Kamikirimusi" is a new female bonus character designed by Mai HIME artist, Hirokazu Hisayuki. Given her Japanese garb, her horns, and the spiked club she carries it is thought that she is an "Oni." In Japanese folklore, Oni are demons that could be best approximated to ogres or trolls in Western folklore (Oni are typically male, large, and ugly). Oni also traditionally wear tiger-striped loincloths, which Kamikirimusi seems to forgo in favor of more civilized attire.

 
Nice... Feet...
