Spawn did not fit in with Soul Calibur II, but that game will always be permanently tainted due to the presence of Todd McFarlene's other character, "Necrid," being present. Heichachi being a Namco character might have fit in better if he had a damn weapon. Link was a cool bonus in the GC version, I think. He fit in better than I would have thought, and his play style survived in a way as the thief style in SC3. I would have preferred no bonus characters in the end.
Now it's fucking Star Wars in a game set in the 1600s? Light Sabers? FUCKING YODA? HUH?
