When Darth Vader - the guy who lost everything, who was created from the immolated form of one of the most emo characters in existence, and torches whole planets as a day job - actually LAUGHS, you know shit just got real.
Heydrich Reinhardt Can’t be. Disney declared everything else other than the movies (Episodes 4-9, Rouge One, Solo) as well as the tv series “Rebels” and “Clone Wars” as canonical. Any form of Star Wars media other than that is non-canon. So unless Vader showed that ability in the aforementioned movies and tv series, it isn’t a canonical ability.
Mechasonicrocks you forgot the prequels and all the comics and books that were made after Disney declared legends not canon and battlefront 2 campaign and some other things that I can’t remember
+Jake Astl Well he IS the chosen one so it makes sense that he'd be able to wield both Soul Caliber and Soul Edge. The galaxy on the other hand is screwed.
@@akumaking1 Most likely, he likely killed Sidious and became Emperor once he got back or installed someone he could easily control considering Vader was more for military and leading from the front. Maybe even restored his body to what it used to be before he went to Mustafar.
I know George Lucas is SO FREGGIN HAPPY that his Characters is on a GAME like this. I'm probably late by leaving a comment like this in 2017 but this is for those that haven't see an comment like this yet.
Yup and he returned his body back to normal and negated the side effects of using the dark side of the force and obviously attained a whole new power level.
+Nathaniel Vaughn Lord Vader will destroy the weak ugly old piece of trash.. The Emperor was never strong he just had the imperial empire on his side. Darth Vader Vs Galen Marek is something were I don't know who's stronger.
I like that his style in game isn't that far from his acctual fighting style. In comics he does use punches or kicks sometimes, he even does front flips (altouh not as often and as well as he used to)

"Yo Emperor, I found these bomb-ass swords with crazy powers, I also think this planet might be a source of more powers, some untied to the Force. Probably a few Force Sensitives to. We should take it over, it's a fucking Gold Mine."
I mean we all know Darth Vader is master race af in height. But I think he meant buff as in his broad ass shoulders, which isn't something you notice in the movies or other forms of media.
Darth Vader fighting against these anime swordfighters my look comical now. But, there's a good chance he's going to be doing it again in Kingdom Hearts 4.
Personally wasn't a fan of this collab back in the day but I'd say it definitely aged well to such a degree that i'd like to see it return. I don't know if Disney can be trusted with a Star Wars x Soulcalibur VI crossover, though. Also, I think the kick in 1:43 was reused for Haohmaru.
It's a game. It'd get boring if you just choked everyone for 5 seconds and then instantly won. Same reason for why the lightsabers don't instantly kill everyone.
As unlikely as it may be, I'd like to see a Soul Calibur game with every character (including guest characters) from every game (as well as some new guest characters. Preferably Cloud, Sephiroth, Squall, Lightning, and Noctis from Final Fantasy, Sora and Riku from KH, Pyramid Head from Silent Hill, and Guts and Griffith from Berserk), as well as all the mechanics of the series (and yes, it's because I want Critical Finishes back). I know that copyright would be a huge issue, as they'd have to get permission from multiple companies (Disney, Lucas Arts, Nintendo, Sony, Ubisoft, etc.), and companies like Nintendo and Sony wouldn't be too pleased about seeing their characters playable on rival systems, but I can still have my pipe dreams.
I like that Vader can conjure fire in this game. Too bad he never does that in the movies, or even other video games. All powerful Sith use both telekinesis and Force lightning, except for Vader who has to make do only with telekinesis, having no power to make up for his inability to generate lightning. This, sadly, makes him look weak as far as the Force is concerned.
I would love to see a Darth Vader movie. Like when Vader was in his prime, slaying Jedi after Order 66 was executed. In the novels (which aren't canon anymore) Vader kicked ass and is known as one of the strongest force users and one of the most skilled with a lightsaber.
As much as I LOVE The dark lord of the sith himself, seeing him laugh doesn't feel right. I mean yeah he will crack murder jokes, but he's still very serious about it. Even back in the 70's he wasn't known for having a sense of humor, and that hasn't changed in almost 50 years.
The 3 star wars characters made 4 the best of all the franchise 6 is cool but 4 tho I hope they do this again maybe for 7 add more star wars characters
one thing i always loved doing with him, is when i ko'ed the first guy, stand right in front of a pit, they just grab and ring out all the others running in. The ringout from that basic grapple was so broken against cpu, you wouldn't believe it.
there's something somewhat comical about watching Darth Vader walking into the distance with two oversized anime swords.
why is he even in this game
+doug mcdonald
Because Star Wars is fucking awesome. And Namco knows it's awesome.
Oh lol

This is great

I never heard Vader laugh before. That's one evil villain trademark I'm surprised he doesn't do more often.
He shouldn't. I don't think he likes being evil. Him laughing is completely out of character.
You do make a good point. But then again, I would do the same thing if I started wielding two of the most powerful weapons ever created!
+RisingVictor He's laughing do the disbelief of the power he's wielding.
+RisingVictor You don't have to be evil to laugh.
He doesn't ever laugh in canon. He'd probably choke and start coughing like General Grevious if he tried.
Vader is a beast.
***** The Force is strong with this one...
+Antoine Bandele Total savage
Antoine Bandele The only way to make him cooler than he already is would be if he did a Force Stone Cold Stunner!
I like your vs videos
Because he has the high ground
The sad thing is that Vader's voice in this game is better than the one in EA's Battlefront.
+Andrew Heard "Nothing can stop my lightsaber"
+Andrew Heard The sad thing is that it's the same guy...

That's not sad. That's tragic.

Matt Sloan doesn't do Vader's voice anymore.
Darth Vader don't give a shit what universe he's in.......if their's great power in you, he WILL HAVE IT!!!!
I don't care what universe you're from. That's gotta hurt!
Randy Gutierrez Then he meets Batman Who Laughs.
@@Mars_over_seer And take his power. 😂
Soul Calibur fans on Star Wars: "They don't fit. Too sci-fi."
Soul Calibur fans on 2B: "Me likey."
Exactly
The difference is 2B is waifu material for the weebs
What about link tho i want a game with all crossover characters
That's because well....you know...ass.
Did people actually complain about the addition of Yoda, Darth Vader, and the Apprentice in SCIV? They were awesome, even if unbalanced.

Honestly playing with Darth Vader in Soul Calibur is probably some of my favorite gaming of all time ....
It's just star wars perfection
Vader Would Be Better To Play With Two Red Lightsabers.
I know George Lucas is SO FREGGIN HAPPY that his Characters is on a GAME like this. I'm probably late by leaving a comment like this in 2017 but this is for those that haven't see an comment like this yet.
teewhaay they got his stance wrong
Darth Vader: “Time to pay the emperor, a visit.”
The nostalgia is real, I still remember seeing the Wolverine comic add with Darth Vader and Yoda on it and me and my uncle absolutely freaked out
I'm pretty sure he beat Sidius with those, after restoring himself.
Yup and he returned his body back to normal and negated the side effects of using the dark side of the force and obviously attained a whole new power level.

This might actually be how Vader taught Starkiller.

yes sir!
Come with me and i will teach you the true power of the force.

Muzur57_TV Kinda like Hitler. Though to be fair, the Emperor did manage to hold his own against Yoda.
I read that in beerus's voice
Darth Vader from Prequels: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
Darth Vader from Soul Caliber 4: *evil laughter*
5:28 Darth Vader DESTROYS anime
Now that Vader has both swords and pretty much offed the Emperor, all that's left is for him to turn good again when his son becomes a Jedi.
Your too optimistic Vader is pure evil now
Soul Caliber turned evil in Soul 5 so that makes him even more evil
If Nintendo gets another Soul Calibur, we need Star Wars and Zelda characters in the game.
could you imagine if there is a wii u port of soul calibur 4 and link return as a fighter, FIGHTING DARTH VADER!!!!
That'd be fucking awesome!!!
TheGoldminor The fact that Link has been a guest character in the same game franchise as Darth Vader is pretty mind blowing itself.
The entire Soul Calibur franchise was ahead of its time
Did you seriously skip the opening monologue?
Probably had to in order to stay in the 15 minute limit
That ending cutscene was just epic. Showed him who's boss!
I love how you just kick Yoda to finish him off. Just a swift little punt
Vader's "Grraaahhh" is awesome
Producer: Sorry but we-
Me: LISTEN, if he wants to be in the world Of Anime since there's powers, *HE WILL HAVE IT!!!*
I like that his style in game isn't that far from his acctual fighting style. In comics he does use punches or kicks sometimes, he even does front flips (altouh not as often and as well as he used to)
Darth Vader, Yoda, Kratos, Link, Spawn could solo the whole Soul Calibur universe...
Heihachi also appeared in a Soulcalibur game; but since he's now dead as of Tekken 7, he isn't accounted for.
Vader laughing makes me feel...uneasy. Like I've never heard him laugh before, it's freaky.
The drugs they took making this game were likely on the blacklist, seeing that this is a thing that happened.
Vader somehow ended up in an anime series...
Baldoxxx4000 make a Darth Vader anime

@ShadowWolfRising Galactic Empire invading Medieval Earth god that would be awesome.
The graphics are still great IMO
This was the first soul caliber I've ever played, and as Vader too. Oh the memories.
They don’t make them like this anymore.
I also had loads of fun with the character creation
Because everyone wants to sue everyone for everything fun
algol surely didn't know the true power of the dark sidee
Vader prolly kicked the emporers ass with the power of light and dark.
@Tzer Soul Caliber was apparently evil all along Soul 5 revealed it so make that double dark power
@@TankMarst thats damn weird
Anyone else here main Vader?
I always do and forever will my friend.
I main Starkiller
I remember being obsessed with this game when I was a kid!💔😭
#ChildHoodMemories😞
Imagine if they put Episode 3 Anakin or Obi-Wan into Soul Calibur
Really need an Order 66 movie where Vader can legit laugh at some of the Jedi he is haunting.
This games graphics are great
Not gonna lie Vader's laugh was badass
vader is kinda buff in this one i like it tho makes him look more deadly
Superbarrymore Anakin was around 6'2 but with cybernetic enhancements and what not he (Darth Vader) is roughly 6'8"
I mean we all know Darth Vader is master race af in height. But I think he meant buff as in his broad ass shoulders, which isn't something you notice in the movies or other forms of media.
David Prowse (Vader actor) was a body builder.
Ikr
I miss the days star wars would so somthing like this.
I said: "The Dark Side is strong with you, and i beat him in 1 minute and 4 seconds"
The best Star Wars fighting game?
Ya don't fuck with darth vader
Since when did Darth Vader LAUGH?
Darth Vader is my favorite from Soul Calibur 4.
Imagin a full star wars fighting game in this style!
That ending makes total sense. Vader just killed the dude and took his power. I was totally geeking out.
When you swing a lightsaber around like a heavy club
Darth Vader fighting against these anime swordfighters my look comical now. But, there's a good chance he's going to be doing it again in Kingdom Hearts 4.

if this was canon lol
Darth Vader can honestly annihilate the whole Soul Calibur universe.
Vader would not suffer any of these fools, he would just force choke them and be done with it. He wouldn't waste time fighting with his lightsaber.
I thought the same thing
Too boring. Vader probably gets bored
It's a game. It'd get boring if you just choked everyone for 5 seconds and then instantly won.
Same reason for why the lightsabers don't instantly kill everyone.
aye, both swords now that's some raw power right there

It would've been something legendary if James Earl Jones voiced Vader in this game.

I had this game when I was young, and somehow I never got this guy unlocked despite how long I played it.
Before Sora joined smash, there was Darth Vader joined soul calibur
After he kicked everybody's ass he was like "No fucks given".
Darth Vader came from Star Wars the Empire Strikes Back.
I accept this as more canon than the sequel trilogy

They better make Vader a character in Mortal Kombat 11.
in 2022 this game is a gem
Feel the power of the Dark Side
That spartan kick at the end just for insult.
I remember when I freaked out when I saw Darth Vader and Yoda were in the game, I think I got 100% of the game because I played it all day and night
5% health to 90% beaten by 5% thats how beast darth vader is
You destroyed Yoda
dude Vader been hittin the gym after Padme dumping his ass he's roided out in this
Imagine Vader in MKX
I posted the same idea unfortunately people want him more in injustice then mortal Kombat plus it's impossible since Disney got hold of star wars
miss this game..

Kinda had a problem with Vader lifting those skeletons up over his head like that as the design of his shoulder armour prevents him from doing so.
I want a game with link and darth vader in it. and all the crossover characters
And people ask why we love Soul Calibur so much? Like isn't it obvious?
I dont remember his capeless costume looking so slim and leaning back like a jojo character 😂 ill always play him with his cloak
