Yoda and Darth Vader make it onto Soul Calibur IV box-art.
|
Has this been posted here yet? If not ... quoteFirst Guitar Hero kicks the bucket, now this... Soul Calibur IV has been dated and priced for Japan. That's good news! Above is the official Japanese box art for the game, box art that features Darth Vader for the PS3 version. Yoda is on the Xbox 360 version's cover. That's, well, not such good news. By putting these iconic Star Wars characters on the box doesn't it make Soul Calibur IV seem less like a Soul Calibur game and more like a Star Wars game? Yes, yes it does. You had a good run SC. Gonna miss ya. full article (rate it)

Well I don't recall anyone posting it. Cool box art, guess they didn't want to use Taki for the cover.

That's some pretty crappy box-art.
Way too much focus on Star Wars.
Hope we're not getting the same ones.

I think they're better than the European/American versions though. But they suck. Need moar characters in them.
And since when did Ivy replaced Taki? ):

And since when did Ivy replaced Taki? ): Taki quit, and is now suing Namco over Sexual Harassment. Anyway, I think the Box Art is cool. I'm not much of a Star Wars Fan, I've only watched like half of one movie and didn't like it, but still I think it looks alright. I'm honestly not as excited for this game as I was for SC3, though. I'm not really sure why.

Y Ivy, Taki kicks more ass then Ivy. I don't like the art cover, but better then the ones U.S. have. I think the Limited Edition has better art work

We don't we even know the U.S covers, well as far as I'm aware I haven't seen them.
Anyway who buys games off the cover, its all about the game not the box.

If anything, they should have just put them in the background on the box-art. But this is going a bit too far.

It might be the case of getting paid loads of money to use them, and promoting the new characters to the old and news fans, like myself a little.

I think the boxart is pretty lame.
Though, the 360 one is better than the PS3 one in my opinion.
They shouldn't have put guest characters on the cover.

 Nobody's judging the game by the cover, they're just saying having the guest characters on it is stupid.

idk, I don't get the whole "Star Wars-Being-In-Soul Calibur" vibe anyways. It kinda throws off the cool-ness this game once offered.....well, unless your a star wars fan

quote Tiger of Wu
 Nobody's judging the game by the cover, they're just saying having the guest characters on it is stupid. Same thing, thanks for proving my point. Who gives cares who's on the cover, your not going to buy the game based off it. And why not have the biggest guest characters on cover? You do know how many Star Wars fanatics there are, and having them on the cover will bring in more sales, cause people will be like "Whoa whats Yoda doing on a SC cover, or Darth Vader". Its called selling tactic, whether or not you like it is irrelevant cause its a business strategy. Hell I will tell you right now I love Star wars, and if I saw a fighting game having them on the cover, I would be intrigued and buy the game. If I didn't know about SC4.
Since we know about SC4, there's no point saying it doesn't look good, when we don't buy games off cool covers.
