Soulcalibur IV 'tournament kit' revealed -- most disappointing

Were you hoping for a totally awesome Soulcalibur IV package when you heard they had a "tournament kit" ready for your consumption with the limited edition release? Sorry to burst your bubble, but it seems the secret tourney item has been revealed. It's a bracket card. Yep. A card and nothing more.

What is interesting is the varied t-shirt content with the game. PS3 owners will get a black shirt featuring Darth Vader and Mitsurugi, whereas the 360 owners get a white shirt with Yoda and Siegfried. Both shirts only come in size XL, because come on, what's the stereotype for video gamers? That's right -- we all love Star Wars, too. Don't be rude.

Are there really people out there that buy this stuff? Actually I take that back because I'm sure there's that "special" Star Wars fanatic out there that would kill for those shirts.. haha

A card and a t-shirt?? Oooo a card with a pre-made bracket on it which can only be used once after you write on it. A t-shirt you'd probably never wear. Hmmm, and it'll probably be £10 or €15 more than the game.

No thanks.

They haven't fully explained what the additional in game content is. Unless that is someting very significant, then i'm going with the standard version.
