PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale official thread

[Bio]

They have full story modes, too...so they aren't just arbitrary roster additions.

Story mode is based on rivalries and Emmett and Kat aren't rivals...so...two additional characters are on the way...?

Cole and Fat Princess are?

[Joe Zombie]

Who do you think would rival Kat and Emmett?

Who do you think would rival Kat and Emmett?

Each other I imagine

The article on the front page of this website seems to indicate that they aren't rivals. Maybe, maybe not.

That's a good point, so new characters are even more welcome. It seems from the article that two more will be joining them.

However with future paid DLC, if every "pack" contains characters with full story modes, it will be interesting to see how they would price that. Since it isn't simply just adding characters to the roster.

I pre ordered this game paid in full. So many great memories playing smash brothers. I hope Cloud becomes available further down the road.

I was watching a gameplay video and somebody was kicking ass with fat princess. Hopefully I can play well with ALL the characters. I would imagine it would get dull if you stuck with one person all the time

[Sir_Scud]

I have my pre-order paid in full as well. This will be the first game in awhile that I own that isn't a some numbered series, sequel or prequel. Excited to play the real deal.

AMEN...getting tired of sequels.

[KillingSpree0]

I really want this game, it's what the fanbase has been asking for since the ps1 days. Hopefully Target will give me a call so I can get some money for this game

[Vercetti]

What characters do you think they will have? I'm hoping for Kevin Butler. I'd also like to see inuyasha too. Maybe some characters from Kingdom Hearts? Although that may be complicated with Disney

[Bio]

Kevin Butler has recently been through a lawsuit by Sony so...nope.

Inuyasha......nope. He has contributed nothing significant to the PS brand.

Sora maybe. I wouldn't bet too much on it, though.

[Joe Zombie]

I'm pretty satisfied with the roster. Sir Dan is who I really wanted to see the most. Heihachi is also a great addition.

I'd be ecstatic if Dart made it in.

[Silver_Knight]

I hope this one of those games where it goes down in price reall fast. I want to pick it up but not with that price tag. If they had all the characters i wanted then it wouldn't be a problem.

Not true...this is actually a fighting game. So it makes sense.



what did Kevin Butler do to get a lawsuit? I loved his commercials

[Bio]

He did a commercial for...Bridgestone that involved some kind of deal where you could win a Wii. I think that created a conflict of interest in Sony's perspective.

What influential PS game or franchise has Inuyasha been a part of?

[Vercetti]

I wouldn't say it was influential but there was a Mortal Kombat style Inuyasha game. I don't know if it ever made it to the states but it was a playstation 2 title. I posted a pic in my previous post but it didn't show up for whatever reason. Google "inuyasha video game".

[Blacksite]

There are several Inuyasha games, actually, but they all received mixed to negative reviews. I don't think licensed games count though or else you'd have all sorts of anime characters like Goku and Naruto join in.

Nothing turned in to meta yet...

[Joe Zombie]

Only anime character I'd like to see in the game is one from .hack, maybe Balmung, Kite, or BlackRose.

[Bio]

IGN review will be up tomorrow (well, today, but I'm up too late).

[Nitey]

Me and my bro split the cost and pre-ordered this last week. He'll take the Vita copy and the ps3 one will just be ours. Unfortunatley GAME are the only outlet doing the pre-order costumes but they're selling the game at £40 so no thanks. Ordered from Tesco direct for £33 in the end.

I was at a Playstation access meet over the weeekend and asked Seth Killian about the costumes and he said it's ultimtaely up to Sony but like most pre-order bonuses they will probably just release them on the store at some point. I hope they do, because Sweeth Tooth's pink suit is awesome

He also said that Kat and Emmet are in pre-alpha stage so that's interesting

Critic reviews are mostly positive. It's averaging a 7/10.

Pretty much what I expected.

[Bio]

Great scores. If it can get close to mid 80s, that would be solid in my book.
