Thread: Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they literally could not acquire the rights to use Crash and Spyro.

I'm starting to wonder if the biggest problem with the game is that it may not work well in Free for all. It's easy to be hit out of combos and throws in that mode, which makes things frustrating.

There will be character and stage DLC. Apparently stores don't have to follow Sony's release date so if you're interested you may be able to get it early.

The Final Boss has been revealed at the end of the game's Attract Mode Trailer which has been posted online.

It's Polygon Man!

Looks like they're not going to the on-disc DLC route like every other fighting game.

They'll be available for free for two weeks after their release. What happens after then isn't specified, but I presume they would become paid DLC.

It's out now in North America.

And now I wish I had a PS3.

This games actually pretty fun.

So far I've played Arcade with Raiden, Spike, and Daniel, and two online matches with Spike (won both of them). The Super Kill System sometimes makes the matches drag on, especially in one-vs-one fights, but otherwise it's a neat system that really sets it apart from Smash.

I don't care for much of the Roster, but the game does a good job at letting the characters' personalities shine through, and the levels are all really neat, interactive and full of life.

The biggest problem is, outside of Arcade, there's not a lot for the Single Player Campaign...that's not necessarily a downside since it's obviously a multiplayer-geared game, but a few extra modes would be neat. And apart from Character Profiles, there's no in-depth encyclopedia of Playstation Lore, a big downer since that's my favorite part of Smash Brothers. And the User-Interface/Main Menu, Credits, and such are kind of generic.

Still, a great freshman effort on the part of Super Bot. The game-play is solid, meaning that fixing the presentation and giving the roster a bit more "oomph" is the obvious direction to go from here.

I heard from some demo players that a great way to troll online is just to play Radec. A lot of players don't know how to deal with zoning at all.

Interesting:

I think the game is based of Brawl (which is not a bad thing) but combat style is weird. You can only KO someone with your ultimate move or w/e. Cant just ring them out like Brawl. Well this is what I've heard anyway, I'm a Xbox man myself.
