Sephiroth or Liquid Ocelot would have been my choice.

TrendyGamers4178d ago

Sephiroth would have been awesome.

No.

Anyway, the boss was just announced and people are already complaining....
You DON'T have to know who Polygon Man was. Just like I didn't know wtf the hand I was fighting in SSB was, which didn't "represent" Nintendo games all that well either.
How many people even knew or remembered that hand from old Kirby game over screens?
Exactly.

@NathanExplosion

it would be nice to have a character we all know be the final boss.
and no one knew what that hand was in smash brothers... plus smash brothers has nothing to do with how disappointed people are with having polygon man as final boss.

MaxXAttaxX4178d ago

Polygon Man has come with a vendetta against all PlayStation characters because he was once a short lived mascot who was forgotten. So now he's back with a vengeance.

Again, we DON'T really have to know who he was. No one would even be complaining if this was an entirely original character. But at least he's got a bit of a back story.

YoungKingDoran4178d ago

i always thought the hand was from any game with a hand for the cursor... like FF games, the start of 90% of every old game. i thought it was genius

Why though...they belong to a certain franchise, if Cloud was in it for example then the boss would be more personal to him but with Polygon Man it's personal to all of them because he's not from a franchise.

It's why the Master Hand in SSB is a great choice instead of just having someone like Bowser as the final boss.

Foolsjoker4178d ago

Having Sephiroth without Cloud seems odd, but I can't say I don't agree that would be a better choice.

sinncross4178d ago

I agree with the idea that perhaps singling a certain IP for a boss may not be the best idea.

That said, I prefer Polygon Man over a completely brand new, unrelated to Sony, character.

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Launched 10 Years Too Early

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.

CrimsonWing69513d ago

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.

PapaBop513d ago

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.

spoonard513d ago

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.

Magatsuhi513d ago

Sony should make part 2 and dump a good amount of money on it. Scrap super only kills and it's bound to succeed.

Father__Merrin513d ago

Yes the power kills spoilt it completely WTH was they thinking you should have hp bar that's it

God of War: Ragnarok Weirdly Makes PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Canon

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.

Nyxus520d ago

I wouldn't say canon. More like an easter egg.

Deathdeliverer519d ago

That’s interesting. It actually does make it canon lol. He mentioned it in a mainline game. I’d say that’s pretty cool.
