wow...i remember hearing about it in GI, then seeing the trailer on PS3 PSN. i would love to play the 4th one, but i hope it a bit better than SCIII cuz SCII is a slight better. at least they changed the name of the game. that was a slight improvement over the other one.
i don't know about IVY. she does look like a slut, but i assume that some of the creators of SoulCalibur either have a sick minds or probably is into BDSM. as for Sophia, she is from the Medieval ages? they haven't invented bra during that time, so it no surprised of the way she is dressed. it either that or her looking stupid in a full dress. but if they could model her after Valkery Profile (PSX), then it would definitly rock...
can't wait to try my hand on the demo...
