LINK TO APPEAR IN SOUL CALIBUR FOR NINTENDO GAMECUBE!

I've known for quite some time now that Link was supposed to be a surprise character for the Soul Calibur game being produced for the GameCube. If you're not familiar with Soul Calibur, it originally was an arcade game, that was ported over to the Sega Dreamcast in 1999 as a launch game. If you ever wanted to play the best fighting game ever made, play Soul Calibur, I just can't say enough good things about this incredible fighting game. It gets a 10 in my book, blowing away Tekken, Virtua Fighter and Dead or Alive. I can tell you this, I played Soul Calibur months, even years after the initial release, and to this day amazes me at it's pure fighting perfection.

Now with Soul Calibur 2 coming out this year I was salivating over screenshots like when your dog watches you eat a London Broil. And Nintendo and Namco have released the images of Link fighting in this game, and when I first saw these my heart skipped a beat. I was amazed, THIS is the kind of thing I was talking about in terms of what Link should look like and how he should be portrayed. That right there is awesome:

Wow. That's incredible. I can't wait to see this in action. This also lends credence to the rumor that has been leaked to me that Nintendo is working on a polygonal version of Zelda aside from the Wind Waker one. News might start coming out officially from Nintendo after Wind Waker releases in the United States and Europe.
