The Life of Master Yoda

by Chad Lakkis on July 28, 2008

In honor of the upcoming release of Namco’s Soul Calibur IV, containing Yoda on the 360 (and possibly the PS3 at some point). I thought it would be a good time to share some videos depicting key moments in the small but powerful Master Jedi’s life.

Videos you want? The jump you must hit. Read more…

New Game Releases: 7/28-8/02

by Rangebar Merani on July 28, 2008

This week’s selection of game releases seems to be one of the better weeks of the summer so far with the release of the highly anticipated Soul Calibur IV, and a host of new games coming out for the Wii including MLB Power Pros 2008 and SNK Arcade Classic Vol. 1.

PC gamers also get a really good week with a bunch of releases including Beijing Olympics 2008, City Life 2008 Edition and Everlight. As for downloadable content, be on the watch for Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 for the Xbox Live Arcade and if you’re really bored, you might want to even check out Pong Toss-Frat Party Games for the WiiWare, which is essentially a Beer Pong game without the beer. Weird, I know. Have a good week in gaming!

Pick of The Week: Soul Calibur IV (Xbox 360, PS3) Read more…

The rumor surrounding the possibility of being able to download Yoda on the PS3, and Vader on the 360, edged a tad bit closer to reality today, as supposed leaked in-game screens and video seem to confirm their simultaneous existence in the game.

The website housing both the leaked images (shown above and below), and the video which appears at the tail end of this article, claims that the content comes directly from Namco and has not been altered in any way.

While the screens are being reported as those of the Xbox 360 version (made evident by the green and red select buttons shown below), the site also states their belief that the PS3 version will share the same DLC option for Yoda.

Images have been known to be shopped on the web, but the addition of the video, which surfaced shortly after the screens were leaked, makes it hard for us to deny that, at the very least, there is some version of the game out there that contains the two characters.

Assuming that this confirms Namco’s intent to release both Yoda and Vader as DLC on their respective consoles, there is still no mention of price, and it’s hard to believe that a merger of two forces this epic would come for free.

Below is what appears to be an in-game video depicting Yoda battling it out with none other than Darth Vader himself. Enjoy. Read more…

Soul Calibur IV Install Shrinks, Possibly Optional

by Patrick Steen on July 9, 2008


Good news PS3 owners.  Your Hard-drive won’t be accosted by Darth Vader.  Soul Calibur IV’s install is not a massive 6.7GB and it may not be mandatory either… Read more…

Soul Calibur 1 HD Remix, If You Will

by Roly Reyes on April 17, 2008

Soul Calibur 1

Remember Soul Calibur, the game that made you purchase the Sega Dreamcast? Now, imagine it again in HD, because it’s happening, baby! Namco has confirmed that an HD remake of Soul Calibur is on its way this summer and for now, at least, it seems that it’ll make itself comfortable exclusively on XBLA. Read more…

Soul Calibur IV Coming Soon

by Roly Reyes on April 17, 2008

1286_0033soulcalibur4-copy.jpg

With Grand Theft Auto IV and Metal Gear Solid 4 release dates announced, it’s already the year of 4s and Namco Bandai has clued us in on when Soul Calibur IV is dropping for North America. Now if only Capcom would give us that Street Fighter IV. Read more…

hmm, surprised to see me you are…

Categorize this under ‘straight out of left field.’ Earlier today, 1UP’s James Mielke posted a news story revealing that Namco Bandai somehow acquired rights to Star Wars characters, specifically the Sith to rule all Siths, Darth Vader (only available on the PS3), and the tiny but mighty Yoda (only available on the 360).
