Rumor: PlayStation All Stars Leak Includes Metal Gear's Raiden, DMC's Dante And More

Dual Pixels - Breaking: New images supposedly leaking the remainder of the TBA playable characters in PlayStation All Stars: Battle Royale shows new challengers including PlayStation mascots and 3rd party legends.

[user5467007]

Raiden....<sigh>

Oh yeah lets give Nintendo Solid "Awesome" Snake for SBB and Sony can have crappy Raiden of Playstation All Stars. What about Big Boss or Old Snake.

Evil Cole?

If that is Evil Cole what a waste of a character, wouldn't it just be easier to have Evil Cole as a skin.

I really hope this isn't true. If it is true then it's Superbots own fault they should be realing more characters and info on the game. It comes out in a few months.

Oh and dmcs Dante...are Capcom serious. Are they actually trying to force us to like the new Dante, give us the good Dante. I bet Square Enix will do the same with Lightning, they'll only allow her to be in the game.

[LOGICWINS]

Wait...what? Capcom is "forcing" people to like something? News to me.

[user5467007]

Erm...yeah

After the huge uproar with the new game and everything else thats went on with it why the hell would you select the new Dante to be in the game. You just wouldn't do that...it's a stupid decision it's like they are trying to get more people to hate them

The majority of us don't give a crap about him, its like they are trying to make us like him by focusing on that Dante now, not the one that people like. They'll start shoving it down our throat more after the game comes out

[LOGICWINS]

^^Woah, thats interesting. Wasn't aware people took it that seriously.

[VanillaBear]

Oh shut the hell up LOGIC, trying to nitpick peoples comments so you can start an argument like you always do. Honestly your such a troll just like when you were on your old one bubble account deadreckoning666

Seriously it amazes me how you still have 5 bubbles.

[Hisiru]

Stop complaining lol... We don't even have the full list yet. Maybe they even included characters like Cloud/Sephirot and you are complaining about something you don't know yet.

It's not the final list. They still have characters to announce.

[Peppino7]

Naked raiden???? I'll use him without any complaints like everyone else lol

[PoSTedUP]

raiden is awesome; saved snakes ass multiple times. odd name though... ; )

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

Obviously he didn't mean "forcing" literally.

You're never really "forced" to do ANYTHING... unless of course someone has control over you physically or mentally...

I'm pretty sure you know this already though. You only pointed that tiny part out of his entire comment because you want to incite an unnecessary argument/explanation like vanillabear **"kindly"** pointed out..

[MaxXAttaxX]

MvC3 got it right with DMC3's Dante. IF this is true, they should have included him instead.

Oddly enough, that screenshot shows Jak from Jak II, not Jak 3 which has been already announced.

And that looks like Hale from Resistance, not Evil Cole.

[IAmLee]

ahh, Logic. We meet again. Nice to see you're as popular as ever ;)

[lizard81288]

Lol, If new Dante is true, what are they smoking? Even Project X Zone uses the old Dante, along with MvC3 and a few other new games too.

[blue7_7]

It's not that they are forcing anyone but they could have included the old dante instead since that one is at least somewhat associated with the playstation brand the new dante not so much so they are kind of pushing the new dante down everyone's throat in a sense.

But if this is the character list then it just proves what a weak list Sony has most are third party pretty weak "all star" list the majority don't even represent the playstation brand. I guess they were grasping for straws.

[WeskerChildReborned]

Same here, I have no problem with Raiden really but DMC's Dante? I'm pretty sure most of the fans would want classic Dante. Would be cool if they had a poll for which Dante is included in the game.

[ZeroX9876]

why not have multiple skins for Dante?

[WeskerChildReborned]

@ZeroX9876, That's not a bad idea but idk if any characters in the game will be given alternate costumes.

[-Alpha]

^ There are tons of alt costumes look up the DLC

I'm sure Capcom would promote new Dante, but I dont think they'd be so selfish as to disallow old Dante as a skin

[Godmars290]

So instead of cool cyber Raiden you'd rather have naked cartwheeling Raiden?

[BitbyDeath]

@Mike, Evil Cole would have a different move set to Good cole. eg. Ice and Oil.

AS long as they have tons of characters to pick from then I don't mind.

Good to see Ratchet there, i agree Raiden shouldn't be there though, i'd much rather see Vamp, Psycho Mantis, Revolver Ocelot, Snake, well pretty much anyone from MGS over him.

[WeskerChildReborned]

I think Evil Cole will still be kinda a waste of a spot so they should just include him as a alternate costume if they are including alternate costumes in the game.

[ado908]

What? are you an idiot? In a game like this Raiden sounds better than Solid Snake. He can flip and fight with his electric sword. Also the update shows it's evil nathan Hale not evil cole. You don't even know if it's the old dante and it most likely is.

[ginsunuva]

Yeah if you think about it, Snake is cool, but what moves would he have exactly? His ssb moveset was lame.

[Nimblest-Assassin]

They think its Nathan Hale, not evil

I liked Raiden in mgs2, hell its probably MGS4 raiden

You know... freaking cyborg ninja?

Hopefully regular dante, not the new one... it might be a skin

I turned on my PS3 after 2 weeks of not touching it, and I find an LBP karting beta

Its fun... but if I got this beta... I would be exstatic

[Whitefeather]

The picture there is MGRising Raiden, he even has the bandanna on his eye. He could probably have an MGS4 skin if he is in the game.

[-Alpha]

It's evil cole. He plays very differently.

[OllieBoy]

David Hayter has done voice work already. Snake will be in this, so chill the hell out.

[Jamzluminati]

YES! RAIDEN! All I wanted. And it is obvious Snake will be in the game. He's Sony's biggest mascot. Hell,I just wonder how will a car from GT fit in this? Will it be a transformer? And yes that is Sir from Medi.

[Spitfire_Riggz]

Is that Sir or a Chimera?

[CryofSilence]

It's Sir.

[FACTUAL evidence]

I don't know if people would agree, but they need to have young jack, and future jack as 2 different characters.

Also, all the third party characters is making this not seem so special to me for some reason.....feels like i can get this experience playing one of those cross over games like sfXTK, or marvel vs capcom....please stop with the third party characters and add Sony exclusive owned characters...

I know the third party people they're choosing are awesome, but cmon! Bigdaddy for an example....they could of really just gave us crash bandicoot if they wanted third party. Big daddy has no place in this game, he's awesome but the game didn't even start on a sony product......

EDIT: I see sack boy! yaaay!

[ShoryuSwordsman]

To be fair, DMC 1-3 were all ps2 exclusive, they didnt go multi until nero popped up. And MGS is widely associated by most as a sony exclusive franchise, despite its nintendo releases. So essentially they are "Sony All-Stars"

[RyuX19]

Nevermind.

[RyuX19]

I agree with you about Dante, but not Raiden. If you get a bunch of negative comments it is because of Raiden comment.

[LordAtrocity]

Wtf is matter with Ninja Raiden. Also they plan to add characters from the same game, so any standout enemies or characters in the game would probably mean Snake and either Liquid Ocelot, so he has Liquids CQC and Ocelot's shooting ability, like ricochet, or maybe vamp. Evil Cole will prob be an alt skin, and why does everyone have a boner for the older Dante, I liked DMC and all and it would be good to switch from old to new Dante as a skin. As much as I love FF and would love Cloud and Sephiroth to be in it, it might not happen.

[LUCKYXS7LEVEN]

nope, it's going to be the best character out of them all CHUCK......................... ............................... ............................... ..........................TESTA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GribbleGrunger]

I thought the whole point of the game was to pick your favourite character? Don't people do that in other fighters? So complaining about characters you don't like is redundant. Pick the one you do like and kick the crap out of the character you don't! Good motivation... no?

[CryofSilence]

Oh! The "Medievil" guy is there! (bottom left corner)

[smashcrashbash]

Wait. I saw everyone else. But where did you guys see Dante? I squinted as hard as I could and I didn't see him. And I don't think that is Evil Cole by the way. I think it is Chimera Nathan Hale. Since the Hedgehog grenade is already in the game it would make sense. And since we have already seen Ape Escape and Ratchet stages Spike and Ratchet make sense too.

@ MikeCosgrove. Yeah what is wrong with having Raiden? Besides Sony and Superbot aren't the ones calling the shots in some cases. If they only want to give us Raiden and not Snake there is nothing they can really do about it. You can't force them to give us Snake. What does it matter as long as Raiden is a good fighter in the game?

[user5467007]

It dosen't matter if they are a good fighter, most old characters selected for the game are mainly for gamers nostalgia towards certain franchises.

When I think of Metal Gear and Sony I think back to when I played Metal Gear Solid on the PS1 and automaticaly think of Solid Snake. What I don't do is think of Raiden...

[HarvesterOSarow]

Most gamers try and put Raiden out of their minds because in MGS2 (his first introduction), he was a little bitch.

There, I said it. Give me The Boss or Big Boss over Raiden.

[smashcrashbash]

Well you are not going to like every character in the game. I hated most of the ones Nintendo used in SSB. You can't complain about every thing they choose. Superbot themselves said it they would try their hardest to get the characters they want and have thought about everything that we have, But unfortunately it all depends on the developer what they want them to use and not not use.

They won't just give them Snake or anyone we want just because they asked them to. They may be asking for too much money or the deal may be to only use certain characters from the series or some may just refuse out right.

So don't bring down the whole game because you don't get every character you want. If it is that important to you have many more to choose from. I personally hated when Nintendo filled their roster with things like Ice Climbers and Mr Game and Watch and worst of all Young Link, Link and Toon Link or Sonic that has nothing to do with Nintendo.But I still played the game. So if people can go along with that I think that Superbot should be are forgiven for a few odd or out of place characters or a few repeats like Evil Cole (even though I still think it's Chimera Nathan Hale).

[Patriots_Pride]

Just give it a rest Mike - Sony does not have the say on who they get from Metal Gear and Konami does.

Maybe Nintendo has a deal with Konami where they get Snake since you know Metal Gear started on the NES.

[Reverent]

Honestly I dont see why people complain about Raiden being in this. Maybe because he's got his own game now that people like to hate on? Seriously, guys, go and rewatch the scene where Raiden fights all the Gekkos then takes on Vamp and tell me he wouldn't be awesome in this game.Besides, we need more sword users/less gun users.

[HarvesterOSarow]

I'm by no means complaining that Raiden is in this game. I'm just saying, half the time as soon as somebody mentions Raiden in MGS, my brain instantly says, "are you referring to him when he's terrible, or when he's a bad ass?"

Of course he was sweet in MGS4, and it was a good transition to see where he went from MGS2. Yet his very first introduction to the series was him being a whiny douche. It's sort of hard to forget.

[WeskerChildReborned]

On the right next to Raiden.

[RmanX1000]

I only care if Spike and Ratchet are true, they've honestly define PlayStation for me personally. Spike's moveset could be AMAZING. Also worth noting, you can see a (somewhat) clean shot of the rumored Ape Escape lab stage in the pic :D

[theunleashed64]

one of them looks like sir dan from medievil in the image, holy crap i hope i'm not wrong.

[Ravenor]

I hope you aren't wrong.

[Relientk77]

I sure hope Sir Dan is in it

That would be awesome

[UnitSmiley]

Fake or real, no Jrpg characters makes me sad :/

[Relientk77]

They better have JRPG characters in it

[Twisted_H3art]

Bioshock Infinite Stage Columbia

[brew]

Looks nice. I wonder what invades it and messes it up ? lol.

[Nathaniel_Drake]

It would be so cool if they went the Power Stone way and made it 3D to where you can swing on those cables they had in Bioshock Infinite

[srcBFMVBMTH]

I WANT OLD SNAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Machioto]

I want colonle volgin,death jr,human sub zero,vamp,kb and kaz harai,his leve 3 would go like this,the screen goes black a spot light appears,kaz is on a dais(podium) and states 599$,everybody goes crazy and explodes.

[NastyLeftHook0]

snake......SNAAAAAKKE!

[remanutd55]

did i see Sir Daniel Fortesque and Nariko on that pic?

[Baba1906]

hope its nariko =D

[majiebeast]

Stages could be real characters not. Didnt they say there would be more female characters and a rpg representive. Didnt the vo of Cole say he was working along side David Hayter and Nolan North so that pretty much confirms Snake not Raiden. Also wasting a spot on evil cole or Nathan Hale would be a shame.

[SPARDA_426]

Good point about the voice over from David Hayter. I can now breathe a sigh of relief.

[Whitefeather]

Nathan Hale is one of the coolest characters this gen and hes very under rated I'm glad they added him.

[srcBFMVBMTH]

Agreed, he was a cooler character than Joseph Capelli IMO. Even if he didn't say much haha. They should've continued his story into Resistance 3 :(

[Lord_Sloth]

So, if this is true, I can use Ninja Raiden and beat the crap out of/repeatedly kill the very crappy Etnad? Sold!!!

[chadwarden]

I want my lovely Lightning!

[Reverent]

Please, no. If we are getting a FF representative, I will be soooooooooooooo upset if it's her.

[Afterlife]

Rumor

Lightning is in
Crash and Spyro are not in :(
Evil Cole is real, has his own moveset but I think it's a stance change.

This is according to a user on Neogaf who was aware of this.

[kingofe3]

Where's Kat?!

[paybackprahl]

Who is Dual Pixels, and where did these images come from?

[Frances-the-Mute]

Not entirely sure about some of the characters, but the stages look convincing.

[R_aVe_N]

Seems to me its more of a creative photoshop effort only reason i can see typing 50 million "leaks" on every dang picture. The character pictures look like avatars from PSN.

[mt]

for me it won't be perfect PS All-Star Battle Royal without Solid Snake.

[KingOptimusOrigin111]

OMG would you people quit complaining. They can't announce all these characters you want because the way third party developers are. Omar even said that at Comic Con. We still have 2 - 3 months left for more character reveals to come.

[kingofe3]

Some people are complaining about first party characters. Like Kat!

[KingOptimusOrigin111]

Like I said we still have 2 - 3 months to go for more character reveals so maybe they might announce Kat. It all depends on whether Sony Japan says yes or no for her to be in the game and more than likely she will be in the game because she is exclusive to PlayStation.

[ChunkyLover53]

Sony sure is counting on a lot more 3rd party characters then I would have guessed they would have.

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

Stop this BS already lol. You have been saying that for a while now. It is totally possible to have a PSA game that consist of purely 1st party Sony characters. It's just that SuperBot have the green light to get 3rd party characters and they are using it.

I know you are trying to imply that Sony doesn't have enough 1st party characters as evident of them using many 3rd party characters, which MS has been criticized for with regards to their own brawler, but no that isn't the case.

Raiden and Dante are unwelcome for me though because they are taking up space for other characters that I'd rather have in the game.

[ChunkyLover53]

I wasn't implying anything. If you are on the defensive about something, it must be you.

I think Sony has more then enough first party characters for a game like this, which is why its so perplexing that they are putting so many lackluster third party characters into the game.

It is kind of funny that a lot of Sony fanboys said Microsoft would have to have a ton of third party characters though, so its ironic to see the backtracking and hypocrisy now.

[NastyLeftHook0]

hmm 2 bubbles now eh lol.

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

You aren't fooling anyone lol. Don't know how I'm being defensive when I'm only saying the truth.

Yes, you are implying something which is either that Sony doesn't have enough 1st party characters or that there's some form of hypocrisy (another thing you've been trying to do for a while now). I don't expect you to admit it though.

Also, I'm glad you think to that the 3rd party characters are "lackluster." And for the record, out of the 12 confirmed characters only 2 are 3rd party. So that would make 4 total "if" this rumor is true.

I don't know this back tracking you are speaking of, but thanks for making your agenda clear.

[r21]

if this leak is real, then sweet, nariko is confirmed :D

[Patriots_Pride]

Naruto!? where....day one if true.

Edit: @whiyefeather stop being such a hipster and relax.

I was just messing but how awesome would that be to get some Naruto love in thus game.

[Whitefeather]

Not sure if trolling or misread... He said Nariko as in from Heavenly Sword.

[Whitefeather]

How was I being a hipster? I was just asking..don't get knickers in a bunch

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

I wouldn't mind Naruto in the game actually... add Goku and a Digimon and I'd buy the game twice on launch day...

[HmongAmerican]

Naruto, Lu Bu, Goku,ects...

[r21]

i dont know about naruto but i'd rather have luffy from one piece, since he's exclusive to ps3 :D

[MoB21]

I love having Jak in this game, but what would make this a MUST buy for me would be having Sora...

[MoB21]

Fine fine, I'll be mainstream and say Cloud/Sephiroth,Spyro, Crash Bandicoot and Solid Snake. Better?

[mistajeff]

Whoa whoa whoa, are you expressing opinions?? On the INTERNET?! IN A COMMENTS SECTION!?!? That never goes over well.

[MoB21]

I know, im embarrassed with myself. Next time I'll just fish for agrees and say what the people want me to say. they dont call me MoB "Agree Fisher" 21 for nothing. they call me that, right?

[jaymart2k]

At this point they should rename the game Playstation & Pals All-Stars.

Seeing as this game has a mix of 3rd party characters.

[xXBlondieVanHarlowXx]

~faceboot~

For when a facepalm is not enough to express the fail.

Jesus,, it's same thing over & over again with you trolls. Just because they are 3rd party characters, it doesn't make them any less part of the overall Playstation experience so GET f***ing over yourselves trolls!!! Sony never once said it was a Playstation exclusive roster. Now stop whining, stop b**ching.. OR GTFO!!!!!!

Thanx 4 your time... :b

[Torkith]

I'm hoping this character list is fake, granted it's got some good characters on it; I'm still hoping for Crash, Spyro and Snake.

[ElasticLove]

If this rumor is true, I'm very surprise to see that they put Spike from Ape Escape and Sir Daniel for Medievil in the game. Also I see that the image have room for maybe 4 more character icons, if so they should most definitely have a Final Fantasy character (preferably Cloud), another that catches everybody by surprise (maybe a Disgaea character or another old school PS character), and the last two hopefully are Crash and Spyro.

It's the first game in a possible franchise, so I have no complaints if this is the final roster. If successful, we see more characters in the next game.

For DLC characters: Kat (Gravity Rush), Kazama (Yakuza),Dr. Nefarious (R&C), and Emmett Graves (Starhawks).

[brew]

I'm good with the characters listed. I just want Wander to make it also.

[ElasticLove]

I forgot all about Wanderer (*faceplam*), the game does need a few swordsmen in the mix.

[ElasticLove]

Now that I look at the article again, isn't the question marks (??) in the Crash Bandicoot font?

[Kiwi_Blue]

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, but the image at the right of the picture with all of the leaks looks like an Uncharted (3) stage, with cargo hanging out the back of a plane.

[urwifeminder]

Man sony fans whinge alot makes me lol.

[jujubee88]

Gotta be critical, man!

Playstation brought us great games dating all the way back to the PS1. SWWS, like Naughty Dog, operate under heat-seaking constructive feed back from fans online. Some people just think of this as a gathering of opinions people want for SuperBot to see.

Also, people love it in its current state and look forward to a progression of what they have seen and wanna share that excitement!

Also, wtf is a "sony fan"? Answer: A line of high end air conditioners? (the mxf-2000 line)

lol

[007Bond]

Shadow Moses stage FTW!

[NastyLeftHook0]

if only...if only

[Ethereal]

Ehh I doubt this is real....

[GammaSix]

You guys see the guy from medieval? boss

[ZeroChaos]

I 'semi' don't like this leak.

The level look cool. So I'm alright with that.

Characters-
- I'm going to assume that Good Cole, Jak, Toro, Heichi are from the announcements from before.
- The characters Nariko, Sir Dan, Ratchet I've wanted
- Sackboy (i don't care much for him but I knew he was going to be in), Ape Escape kid I wouldn't mind being in the game but would prefer not.
- Dante (DMC), and Raiden (MGR) confuses me, DMC Dante is cool if the alternate costume has the original Dante. But Raiden? Snake would have been more appropriate especially after Sony taunting Old Snake to the viewer at E3.
- Evil Cole seperate? I dunno. I would have preferred an alternate costume with a different move-set I don't really want a slot "wasted". What would have been cool, is if they got Kessler.

[Sizzon]

Nariko I'm pretty sure is already confirmed, and awesome with Sir Dan from Medievil :)

let's hope it's true, and bring on more character and stage announcements SuperBot!

[irokster]

i kinda can't wait for this game!

[kingofe3]

I swear if DINO is in this game, I'll throw up.

[BlaqMagiq24]

Why are people getting upset over a rumor? It's a rumor! How about you wait for the next few months to see what they reveal, don't assume anything.

[-Gespenst-]

It's pretty damn convincing stuff. Have you even looked at those pictures?

[GTRrocker666]

Where's the love for Croc? Any of you guys old enough to remember him? GEX is another one id like to see.

[310dodo]

awesome

I like the American Dante way better

Raiden is pretty cool

just show me Crash

[-Gespenst-]

Hmmm that's the remainder of characters to be announced..?

I hope not. There are a good few notable by their absence.

[TheCopyNinja]

Who in the blue hell decided to put Raiden in instead of Solid Snake? What is the world coming to..

[DivineAssault]

damn, this game is looking to be real good.. I hope its balanced well & they put the gravity rush chick in there... Maybe a FF character as well.. Im sure superbot or whatever theyre called will release dlc in the future for more fan favs

[aDDicteD]

raiden? yeah he is cool but i'd like solid snake instead of him

[BlackSharinganX]

hmmm if this leak is true getting it first day screw you people that dont like raiden, or dante( new one anyways)havent played the new DMC to say that i hate it.

[Omar91]

i know raiden is perfect for this game as is dante regardless of his new look. I do hope though that snake is in there as well.

[Omar91]

who's the last character in the first row? he looks like vamp....

[Frances-the-Mute]

It is Evil Cole from inFamous

[Tikicobra]

If Sir Dan is in this I'll definitely be getting it.

[Gaming4Ever]

God this looks so fake. Come on. The stages hint at how long this has been in the works for and the character pictures... well.

Editor: "We need hits people. Mock it up, put it on Reddit as anon source, then roll in it boys!

[chela]

this gonna be medicore game. noone care but N4G

[Xenomorph]

I sense a Bigdaddy/little sister combo.

[Reggonoy]

No Snake = No Buy

Raiden is the single worst character in all of gaming. I hate him with a passion. That douche single-handedly ruined Sons of Liberty.

I'm in the beta now and the game is decent, but if Nintendo winds up with Snake and we get his homosexual sidekick, Superbot can lose money and go out of business. There's absolutely no excuse for excluding him.

[NeXXXuS]

lol no. Raiden was a good character in the MGS series. If no snake = no buy then you must not like any of the other characters in the game. Snake was on nintendo before he was on playstation you know.

http://www.nesfiles.com/NES...

And Raiden isn't the worst character in video game history. Hope from Final Fantasy XIII is.

[NeXXXuS]

Needs more Legend of Dragoon T_T

[Relientk77]

This ^ is so TRUE

[NeXXXuS]

Just think about it. They could put any of the characters that have dragoon forms and it would be perfect. a lvl 1 super attack could be an addition attack, a lvl 2 super would be a dragoon addition, and a lvl 3 super would be dragoon magic. it just works so perfectly that there wouldn't be a reason not to put Dart or Rose in the game.

[Relientk77]

I really want Dart in the game.

And I 100% agree

[wishingW3L]

Mega Man! Where is Mega Man?!

[unicron7]

Raiden..? When will Konami get the hint that nobody likes him. They didn't like him in MGS2 and we didn't like him with fancy ninja armor on. You can polish crap all day long, but at the end of the day, it's still a turd.

[BlackSharinganX]

imo i think he is a well created character, and not just another clone of big boss, he grabbed more people in MGS4 his part was really good.
