PS All-Stars Battle Royale isn't going to be on anyone's Game of the Year list, but nor will anyone who picks it up feel disappointed. It's not a knockout, but just about scrapes a points victory.
While Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale didn't get the best review, there are still some aspects of the game that deserve some credit.
Though PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale is a bit of a cult classic, it could have been a big hit if it launched in 2022 instead of 2012.
It wouldn't have mattered, Sony would've rushed it out and left it to die. More so now than before with their focus now being on SP narrative driven AAA games.
Oh, but somehow Smash Bros. 64 made it work?
It just couldn’t compete with Smash Bros. and it wasn’t a free-to-play game like Multiversus.
I think it released at the right time. It's just after the success of Smash and Multiversus, it's finally time for a sequel.
I'd be all in on a remake or remaster of the original. I enjoyed it because I didn't sit there and compare every aspect to SSB. I just enjoyed it as it was.
Sony should make part 2 and dump a good amount of money on it. Scrap super only kills and it's bound to succeed.
Yes the power kills spoilt it completely WTH was they thinking you should have hp bar that's it
God of War: Ragnarok has plenty of fun references to PlayStation history, but now fans have discovered a conversation that calls back to PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale — the crossover fighting game released for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita.
That’s interesting. It actually does make it canon lol. He mentioned it in a mainline game. I’d say that’s pretty cool.
after reading the review.
it really is not worth any money.
complete rip-off and a try hard game.
"But here's the real killer - the controls in PS All-Stars Battle Royale just aren't tight or fluid enough, and feel faintly robotic. It's far more button-mashy that Smash Bros, because trying to pull off tight combo sequences is next to impossible.
The training levels and levelling-up system encourage you to learn the craft of each character, but the real test is whether they work in full flow against other players. And, quite honestly, they're far from perfect.
To top it all off, the items are terrible, providing players with more power, or faster speed, or other equally uninteresting attributes. Remember in Smash Bros when you'd all rush excitedly to grab the latest drop? In all the games of All-Stars I played online, whenever an item appeared, everyone just ignored it."
