It's nice to know that the eternal telling of souls and swords will continue this Summer -- more accurately on July 29 for North America. While we're ecstatic that we now have a solid date for Soulcalibur IV, it isn't the only new information circulating the interwebs. Namco Bandai also revealed that the game will come in both regular and limited Premium Edition packaging.
Included in the Premium Edition is an art book/comic that serves as a prequel leading up to the events in Soulcalibur IV. Also included is an ambiguously described "tournament kit" that "give fans the opportunity to document the battle amongst friends." It's not clear as to what exactly that involves.
Premium Edition buyers will also have access to exclusive customization content. Following the pricing standards of other high-end low-end specs, the Premium Ed. and regular version will be priced at US$79.99 and US$59.99 respectively.

The "exclusive customization options" for the premium edition perked my interest, though I'm not sure it would be worth the extra $20. I hope they release details before the game hits the stores. The rest of the Premium Ed. content doesn't sound worth it so far.
Hmm, I'm really wondering if there will be customization options for Vader. I hope they are appropriate options, rather than funny hats, pink boots or some other de-masculating apparel.

Even if there is pink hats, flowers and kitty cats... Its not like you have use those to customize. Just like Tekken DR, they have tons of customizations some cool some not so cool, I used the cool ones!

Yay de-masculating apparel! I love making the characters look goofy! You should've seen what I did with Tekken 5! =D

I want to make a Hello Kitty Vader, but that's just me.
Onto a more serious note: Why the hell are all these collectors editions 20$+ more nowadays, rather than 10$ like they should be?
