PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Sony's answer to SSB?

[mankind]

The heavily rumoured PlayStation character brawler may be called PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, if a leaked survey question is anything to go by.
An alleged Sony survey asks the question: "How well does the name PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale fit this game?"
Rumours have existed for a while of a PlayStation brawler, an idea not unlike Nintendo's popular Super Smash Bros., which pits popular Nintendo characters like Mario and Luigi against each other in a battle arena.

The game is said to be in development by SuperBot Entertainment with the help of Santa Monica Studios. A job posting on industry website Gamasutra last November said SuperBot was working on a “combat heavy” PS3 exclusive that had not yet been announced.

lol @ the roster. That can't be real. I'm guessing that this is probably just Sony gauging to see if people will actually buy a game like this should they choose to make it, it's probably at pre-planning stage even before the green-light.

haha I can't help but LOL at the roster too rofl.

I just can't quite see it, or at least being anywhere near as big as SSB.

[Equinoqs]

I would eat a cockroach to get to play a fighting game as Folklore's Ellen.

[Tven]

YES! fighting as Sackboy = win!

[mickice]

A fighting game is coming.

[DarkVincent07]

Yeah this has been rumoured/leaked before showing a Sweet tooth character model and a random list of characters.

Its probably happening... but my GOD that (rumoured of course) name is terrible

[R3D D3V!L]

I still think it should be called DuelShock.

[TGO]

Butler lmao

Sent from my 12.5MP, 2GB Ram, DualCore, Bravia Powered 720p LED Screened Sony Xperia S

[BoyBettaKnow]

I still think it should be called DuelShock.

Bravo. Take a bow, Son. Take a bow.

This will be interesting to see how it pans out. SSBM is possibly one of my favorite fighting games ever (I was a fucking Boss at that game) so i'm interested to see if Sony has the characters and ability to make this as good or even better than the Nintendo counterpart

[mooninites]

What a horrible name. I would def buy it tho

[Kuro]

lmao the roster still i'd get this game loved the ssb series it be cool to play sony's version of it

[Fon]

Meh. I still prefer an RPG with all of Sony's characters.

[Ghost-Rhayne]

Sony have such a diverse and awesome roster of characters. If they get this right, it could be an awesome experience.

[Beast of Bourbon]

Meh. I still prefer an RPG with all of Sony's characters.

Like a Kingdom Hearts with sony chars?
Sounds awesome!

[Bravo9zero]

Looking forward to hearing more about this.

Hope they remove the "All Stars" from the title tho, sounds awful.
"Playstation: Battle Royale" sounds better

[R3D D3V!L]

Yeah, the All Stars is rubbish. It makes the name too long.

[keefy]

SSB what is SSB?

[AaronSOLDIER]

Super Smash Bros.

Ona side note they should totally make a Battle Royale survival game online, lol @ whoever gets the pot lid.

[TheStory]

Where is this roster you speak of? I see two broken images and a link that takes me nowhere.

[daLa]

I don't think this is fake at all, I remember answering about a certain movie, it was also about choosing the proper name for it, they even showed a short clip made out of mostly drawings no animation at all, but as I soon as I saw it I knew it was Rapunzel, the movie was released like 6 months after that by the name of Tangled. So yeah this could actually be from a true survey.

[malys]

Yea I don't think this is fake, some of the characters on the picture look a little suspicious, but the others are pretty exact on the rumors that have been around forever. One of the guys from Superbot himself was tweeting a bunch of information last fall and had to remove it, one of the pictures is still up on his account though

There's also been a few rumors that it's going to be playable at E3. This guy was the first to really say something, and most of it adds up even though it's not really a game site the guy has pretty accurate information and if the screens are fake someone did a really good job of faking a twitter site for a very long time

Nice. I liked the following comment:

[Vulgotha]

I want this bad, but more specifically I want this on the PS Vita.

[R3D D3V!L]

Yup. Same with LBP Karting. Sony needs to put its new games on Vita. Look at Nintendo, they've practically abandoned the Wii. I know that's because of the Wii U but still.
