Rationale for fair use in Soulcalibur II[edit]

1. No free or public domain images have been located for this video game.
2. The image is of lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, and could not be used as artwork on illegal copies of this video game.
3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the video game in any way.
4. This is the artwork, intended by Namco for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
5. This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
6. The cover is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original video game in any way.

Licensing[edit]

This image is cover art for a video game, and its copyright is most likely held by the game's publisher or developer. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of game cover art to visually identify the game in question on the English Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, constitutes fair use under United States copyright law. Other uses of this image may be copyright infringement. For more information, see Wikipedia:Non-free content. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Soulcalibur_II_flyer.png true
