SHOCK! Namco Bandai has just announced that Xbox 360's exclusive Soulcalibur IV character, Yoda, will be available as DLC on the PS3. We totally didn't see this coming.

The DLC pack will be available next Thursday, October 23rd, and will cost $4.99. Xbox 360 owners will be able to access the PS3-exclusive character, Darth Vader, for 400 Microsoft Points.

shaffy @ Oct 17th 2008 1:27PM

I highly doubt that they don't usually fuck up with the conversion of the money >_>

I also highy doubt we'll be gettin Yoda... point to one piece of SCIV addon DLC we've gotten

Heck where out Tekken DR Online "Pick Up Match" addon

I think our poor little hearts are hurting too much about lbp to care about this :(

mwvdragon @ Oct 17th 2008 11:55AM

Man thats a lot of money for just one, and i heard he is nothing special to play as. I'm dislikeing namco bandai more as the days go buy >.

freeblue @ Oct 17th 2008 12:08PM

let the DLC/customerization 'macro'-transaction begin :) 5 bucks for a character that should've been there in teh first place.

vahdyx @ Oct 17th 2008 12:10PM

Boooooo!!!!!

What's the point of making it exclusive in the first place! So Namco can make money.

I boycott

*secretly purchases yoda*

Screw namco

Beano @ Oct 17th 2008 12:15PM

$5 for something that probably allready on the disk?... no way!

Christian @ Oct 17th 2008 12:17PM

I can not believe it. Who would ever have thought they would try to milk their customers like this.........oh wait, they always do....nothing to see, moving on

Leetfoo @ Oct 17th 2008 12:28PM

Five dollars???? Is the user community really that stupid these days?

Haohmaru @ Oct 17th 2008 12:31PM

Yeah.. did anybody really not see this coming?

Ultimadream @ Oct 17th 2008 12:32PM

I can't believe you there making you pay for this!

Jack Tretton @ Oct 17th 2008 12:55PM

Had Yoda/Darth Vader been 'included' in the first place at a price of $64.98, sales wouldn't have been so robust.

I wager the cost of this DLC will come down after the holidays.

ryan @ Oct 17th 2008 1:08PM

all i care about is filling that blank void. seriously, it's been laughing at me.

Jack Tretton @ Oct 17th 2008 1:12PM

Resist those feelings you must.

ryan @ Oct 17th 2008 1:14PM

lol!

VoLiTioN @ Oct 17th 2008 1:12PM

This is probably the worst kept secret from Namco. Having played both versions of SC4 though, Yoda really isn't that good.

But PSN's going to be a blast when everyone's on his small jedi jockstrap for the next week or so.

JeiShi @ Oct 17th 2008 1:15PM

Dude yoda is a cheap little bastard. No character can't even grab because he is so freaking small. Well at least we get to see yoda and darth vader duke it out. I still think that Darth Vader is the best, he's a legend man. No one never forgets him as one of the greatest villian of all time!!!

Josh @ Oct 17th 2008 1:16PM

Scamco.

THE GUARDIAN @ Oct 17th 2008 1:18PM

YODA'S MY FAVORITE CHARACTER SO MEH, I'LL PAY THEM THE STINKING FIVE BUCKS!!! :P :D

John @ Oct 17th 2008 1:48PM

Trophies better be included in that $5...

maxpontiac @ Oct 17th 2008 1:56PM

As a Star Wars fan, I am disappointed in the the way Namco has handled this.

Yoda should have been in the game from Day 1. Plus, the lack of the Jedi/Sith character creation is a shame.

It better be more then Yoda for 5 bucks, or I'll spend my money elsewhere.

Eldrick @ Oct 17th 2008 2:08PM

Wow lol 5$ for only one character what a ripoff

Light @ Oct 17th 2008 2:20PM

They had to add Yoda before and for a more low cost... That's definitely absurd!

Vcize @ Oct 17th 2008 2:53PM

Is Darth Vader force pee'ing bloody urine on Yoda in that picture?

romplestomple @ Oct 17th 2008 3:53PM

that's it. no more namco games. they can try to milk someone else.

Gervin @ Oct 17th 2008 4:52PM

I don't like playing the Star Wars characters anyhow.

Gambit07 @ Oct 17th 2008 5:06PM

Guys, Yoda actually comes naked, you need to purchase his accessories separately, $0.99 for his robe, $1.49 for his lightsaber, $1.99 to activate his voice, please consider.

gillyy0 @ Oct 17th 2008 8:12PM

5$? thanks but no thanks ;]

Kspraydad @ Oct 18th 2008 9:39AM

Rape is strong with the force, yes.

Kspraydad @ Oct 18th 2008 9:40AM

I don't own this game but now I can tell my wife I'm saving $5 by not downloading it and put that $5 in the piggybank towards another new game. Sweeet. Thanks Capcom.

Next time come out with $50 DLC and then I can afford a new game in one fell swoop.
