Gothic Girl A serious case of Gacktism (moderator) RPG [PS3] since: Sep 2003	Jun 10, 08 at 5:04am Yoda and Darth Vader make it onto Soul Calibur IV box-art.
	Has this been posted here yet? If not ... quote First 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) ------------------- lol ladygackt <3 / Silent Hill: SM / Resonance of Fate / Batman: Arkham Asylum /

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

	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? ):

	quote takininja 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. ------------------- "When All of Your Wishes Are Granted, Many of Your Dreams Will Be Destroyed".

	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

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

	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. ------------------- Credit to Fire_Fox for the banner FF8 Caption Competition \| FF8 Forum \| FF8 Roleplay

	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.} ------------------- _{Welcome to Crisis Core forum} _{Welcome to Bad Company 2} _{God of War 3 official forum community}
