Soul Calibur IV is one of the greatest games I’ve ever played. The graphics are great, the Star Wars characters rule, and the customization potential is limitless! One thing: does anybody know 100% for sure that the box next to Darth is for Yoda, and, if so, when does the Yoda PS3 DLC come out?

How does one get to use the special equipment in the charcter creation mode . It is the one under the the shoes, it looks like a ring. I just won a ring and want to add it to a character, but it is blocked off, how do I turn that on.

I love the game but they changed alot. I used to love nightmare and astaroth but now no matter how much i try i can’t play them. Also i liked some of the voices but i hate some of them. Every time i fight a nughtmare i mute the tv. He sounds retarded (no offense to nightmare lovers
) same with astaroth. All in all its fun but at times sounds retarded
