I knew it was going to happen. This has redeemed interest for me in the title as Darth Vader and Yoda will be coming to both the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 as downloadable content. As Gamespot reports...

Nearly three months after the game's July launch, each version of Soulcalibur IV will get the other version's exclusive character as downloadable content. Starting on Thursday, October 23, Xbox 360 owners will be able to download Darth Vader from the Xbox Live Marketplace for 400 Microsoft Points ($5), whereas PS3 players can grab Yoda from the PlayStation Network for $4.99.
