Tira and Seigfried’s pictures are over 1MB large Alexanderz2007. That’s why they take a while but they do load for me. Try and right-click on the image link and select “Save (Target) As”. That should work!

“why the hek are most of the bonus characters girls, i think thats f’n stupid and who cares about boobs it’s a video game”

Because it’s not just about boobs. The bonus characters are designed by known character artists. The purpose of these artistic creations (and in view of the theme of soul calibur) is elegance and beauty. I’d rather see a female character with weapons and attacks that look more like a smooth and deadly dance than another “HULK SMASH” character. It’s not just about the boobs.

Hey, I have a question, where the F*CK is Link?!?! I have not read anywhere that says he coming back, or that he’s not coming back. I haven’t even read ANYTHING about him, which p*sses me off ‘cuz he’s one of the best heros ever, he has an awesome fighting style, and 1337 combos
