sorry if this the wrong forums.

either way I'm curious to all what people think about Kratos being the newest character for the psp SoulCalibur on PSP. I believe he's just just like a combo of Ivy and The Apprentice with higher perks. just can't wait for the game to come out too.

if you're going to be one of those haters on 3D fighters then don't even respond with negative feelings on the game or the series, but just post about the character please.

i would have to play as him to really give a opinion of kratos.

Kratos has always been pretty cool, so the PSP announcement was a bit of a mixed bag for me. Reason being is he was heavily rumored to be in SCIV and that fell through, only to have him re-emerge in the new PSP game. I was really hoping he'd be in SCIV, same as the heavy rumor circling around before the release of SC3 that Dante (of Devil May Cry fame) was going to be a guest character.

I'd have no issue with Kratos being added to the UFS roster and yes, he'd fit in fine with the combo mechanic. I wouldn't however want other GoW stuff being added randomly like Ares, Zeus, etc.

Horvath very ambiguously announced trying to get God of War

I am excited about the game for a few reasons. 1 it has Tira and I luffles her. 2 its another fighting game for my handheld (I only have darkstalkers atm). 3 it has Tira x3

As for kratos I havent played gow. But I hear that its an excellent game and from what I hear Kratos should fit in just fine. My only concern is that I hope they dont overpower him. Also He fits into the SCIV universe far better then the star wars characters did. I mean Astaroth also serves Aries doesnt he?

I think you mean Ares, the god of war rather than Aries the astrological symbol for the Ram?

I would love to see Kratos as a promo as just a character as well as the new bonus characters and the other new character Dampierre. He's just too funny to not have in this cardgame. However with it being a different title of the SoulCalibur franchise will FFG be able to blend in these characters for the core set or just have them as promos period?

and yes we all hope that Kratos will not be overpowered.... erg, Yoda... The Apprentice... or even Link and Spawn from SoulCalibur 2.

Of course Kratos would have the best challenge against Astaroth being that Astraoth is... or was... a servant of Ares. Though I do like the trailer of him fighting Sophitia. it made me laugh 'cause that momma ***** didn't see what was coming. xD

As far as side character like Yoda, Kratos, Vader go, I hope I never see one printed, but if they wander to give me Necrid from SC2, I'd take him, however, I doubt we will see Kratos or Necrid by virtue of them not being in original SC4. This is a bit destressing to be, especially knowing how fluidly Street Fighter is able to print its character...

yes I did xD sorry my brain not working too well right now.

true they aren't part of original SoulCalibur concept but would still be interesting for them to randomly appear... such as the bonus characters from SoulCalibur 3 appeared as Character Promos and then got their own foundations too. I'm waiting to see the same thing happen to the bonus characters of SoulCalibur 4 with KamiKirimusi and Ashlotte
