quote MrGrimmI know that some of his attacks does alot of damage, but they r hard to use and hey using him is hard 4 mequote I am the darknessAre you kidding me?! >:0 Yoshimitsu is the, like, the most superior in the game when you learn him! :[ He has a tool for everything.well said, she sucked in SC III, she isn't the worst character I used, Yoshimitsu was the worst, all he can do is do weird attack, such as, using his sword as a pogo stick and his suicidal attacks. But I sort of find him funny
Tira, I think, had a smaller move set in the previous version. She was definitely more for the half naked-ness.
And lastly, the Character Creation looks like it will be better in this game. =D Looks like they also still have some items from SCIII.

You probably haven't practised with him, I am the darkness.
I'm not good with Yoshimitsu either, but that's because I don't bother practising and playing with ugly characters.

quoteThat's pretty weird tbh. You can end a match by just doing the critical finisher?- Soul impact : Performing soul impact is a victory, regardless of circumstances.
Character swapping is awesome and all the new things you can do in CaS
.And is it me, or do the character look much taller in SCIV? The looked pretty short in III IMO. xD

quote takininjaU-Ugly? UGLY?! ARGH! I think Yoshi looks pretty cool... oh wait. Yeah, he is pretty ugly, isn't he? I like his 2P look better, so that's the one I use.You probably haven't practised with him, I am the darkness.

Guard impacting is hard, so this critical finish will add a very good impact on the game. If you're behind, you can try to go for a critical finish, so you can win. But your opponent will be thinking about that, and purposely try not to get guard impacted...
This'll rock. D:

Come to think of it, I think this is their most hyped game of the series...I've never seen Namco Bandai deliver this much info/screens/updates towards an SC game.

This character select screen looks pretty good. ^^
I'm assuming the characters in grey need to be unlocked, and I'm unsure what the 4 empty spots are for.
Looks like I'll have Taki off the bat, but I'll need to unlock Setsuka and Yoshimitsu.

Way better than the character select screen in III. But I really wished they could have faced each other in versus screen like in Soul Calibur II (look at each other). That looked so cool.
I sometimes wonder why they list them like that...if there is a reason why they've been placed they way they've been placed.
And if Amy is there, then maybe those 4 empty spots includes Hwang and Li Long. Well, I hope so. I also like that their faces are from their concept art.

Well, apparently there is still at least one new character that hasn't been revealed.
Provided Hwang and Li do return (which I'm sure will be the case), and that the Apprentice is also one of the slots, that leaves one empty slot.
Here's hoping that this rumor posted just today about another upcoming guest character that ISN'T a Star Wars character, is true.

Ah, but in that case wouldn't the extra slot be holding Algol (or whatever that freaky hair-colour-changing guy's name was)?
Also (silly question) who's the person in between Siegfried and Random. I can't quite make them out

I think that's the Custom Character slot. The face looks like Ivy to me, but damn it's hard to tell what's going on there.
I hope it's Kratos...that will boost my anticipation a lot for this game.
