Asteroth looks fucking sick. Viola is apparently a new character. Nice so see them getting creative with character designs. Man I honestly wish I wasn't so excited about this game. They better not fuck it up.

this is going to be tits!!!
Is there anything specific that you're worried Aris?
Also the game will be playable in France and England after TGS, so we should have alot more information about how the game plays in addition to what we find out from TGS, especially from France since they have the largest tournament community for Calibur.
I am excited about this game too. More so then the SFxT. When is the projected release date?
Personally I can't help but feel like this next edition is a cash in that's being rushed out to meet the FG boom. All of the ideas seem rough/not well thought out and its like no time was taken with pre-production. I want this game to succeed truly, but I fear that the hasty development coupled with the lack of an arcade release will be its doom. With epic shit like SFxT and TTT2 going down I think SC5 with have to pull out something amazing otherwise it's just gonna piss into the wind.
Asteroth? YES! ;D I hope they bring back the entire cast of Soul Calibur 2. And make it the same system as Soul Calibur 2. And omit any new characters. Wait, I think I mean I want Soul Calibur 2. Fuck these new Soul Calibur games.
So far Astaroth is looking like his SC2 version from the videos that have been posted so far. Also check below for more details and media coming out of TGS.

I hope they release this in Arcades. SC needs to be back at home in Arcades man. I'm more excited for TTT2 tho.
