According to this Famitsu page, both Soul Calibur and Tekken are to get their own lounges in the Japanese version of Home.

There’ no date on it but that report also mentions that Namco’s to start selling clothing and furniture in its new space.

There’s a picture of an avatar through there in a Pac Man hat, just to prove it. There’s also a grab of Santa doing a thumbs up, which is well worth looking at.

Imagine we’re doing a smiley face that looks like this “:-|”. According this Shacknews report, there’s no Mission mode in the XBLA version of Soul Calibur. Coupled with the fact there’s no online play in it either that makes it, essentially, bollocks. The Mission mode was the bulk of the game’s single-play content, allowing players to fight under various conditions to unlock cards, costumes, and so on. All this content is now immediately available.

Do not want.

The Major brings word that the original Soul Calibur is now available for download on Xbox Live. You owe it to yourself to buy it. It’s only 800 MS Points.

Wow. The upcoming XBLA version of Soul Calibur looks completely awesome, as you can see from these shots on Exophase. It’s down as a summer release. Even though there’s no online play, we’re still excited.

We nearly choked on our own tongues when we read this. Namco’s announced that the original Soul Calibur is going to be made available on XBLA this summer. In HD. It’s too good to be true. And it is.

Apparently there’s no online multiplayer. Absolute fucking genius. So nearly the greatest thing ever just crumbled to dust in our sweating palms. Why, Namco? Why? This has to be the cruellest announcement of the year so far. What, do you think we’re going to play this against our wives, or something? Come on, love: you be Lizard Man and we’ll show you that our fingers still remember the Sophitia juggling special because we nearly crippled ourselves with arthritis by playing this on Dreamcast for about 500 hours. Yes please, dear. Goodness, I’m so impressed you managed to remember that move in your dreams since you were a rookie journo.

This has actually ruined today. And it’s only 6.55am.
