Must be a slow news day. I'd enjoy Tekken more if it wasn't awful since forever. TTT was great when I didn't know anything about games/balance/design. The good old day.

 

Because Namco has been very good to us lately and has asked us to mentioned it.

good enough. But $250 is quite expensive I think...

 

Sticks run about $150, and limited editions run $80-100, so the price albeit expensive isn't that crazy. If they had a bundle like this for Calibur, I'd be on it faster than a white girl with some Popeyes.

 

awww man wish they sell this in Australia

 

SRK and SDTekken will post SC news as their headlines and its only fair that we also post some items as well. We're not trying to segregate people from other communities.

 

imho, *shrugging shoulders*. I would try their fighting stick, only I prefer a wired stick.

The TE 'S'' is wired.

And yes, this comment annoyed me enough to actually register just to reply.

Why is this on the front page of a soul calibur website?

LOL.

Been meaning to sign up for awhile. But the last SC I played seriously was 2 (hence the avatar).

 

I always thought it was okay for us to post more none SC related fg news on the front page. SC doesn't usually get that much news anyway. And people do play other stuff.
