Yoda Isn’t the Only Ridiculous Fighter in Soul Calibur IV
Soul Calibur is one heck of a fighting game, but it’s probably fair to say that half the reason people buy it is for its elaborate character creation system, which allows you to design your own characters. How elaborate? Well, watch the above video and see folks from Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Mortal Kombat, Final Fantasy, Killer Instinct, Street Fighter, and more tussle?they’re all astoundingly good, with the exception of Superman. But the Thor will knock your damn socks off. (Via Kotaku)
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
