Unfortunately, if unsurprisingly, SoulCalibur 2 HD Online doesn't bring all three characters together. And we're not talking the cartoon Link that had appeared in The Wind Waker a few months before, we're talking an adult Link with the Master Sword and Hylian shield, looking like he'd jumped straight out of the Space World 2000 demo.
