When first I heard that Yoda and Darth Vader were going to be in Soul Calibur IV, I was more peeved that I was going to have to decide which version to get since Yoda was to be on the 360 version, and Vader on the PS3. Although the choice was easy (Vader > Yoda), I was still peeved that I wouldn’t get both. That’s how I felt when Soul Calibur 2 came out and I had to play with Link when Spawn was the character I really wanted (forget Heihachi, he was useless anyway).

I loved Link and, although I agree he didn’t fully fit-in because his bomb move and other similar moves, I still had fun playing with him. And Spawn has had many incarnations, one of which was Medieval Spawn. Having those two in the Soul Calibur world was a bit of a stretch, but not NEARLY as big of one as having Star Wars characters.

Honestly, there are so many other characters that are better suited, it would be a almost useless to list some. Well, that never stopped me before, so here goes!

Drizzt Do’urden from Dungeons and Dragons (Forgotten Realms)

William Wallace from Braveheart

Gimli from the Lord of the Rings Trology

Maximus from Gladiator

Dante from Devil may Cry

Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7

Jubei from Ninja Scroll

Anyone from Samurai Shamploo

Are there any obvious ones that I missed? Are there any you disagree with? Drop me a comment!
