GamesBeat: PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale successfully brings the fight to Smash Bros. (review)

The endless comparisons to Super Smash Bros. may seem unfair, but the reality is that most consumers will take one look at PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and immediately compare it to Nintendo’s popular series. Luckily for Sony, All-Stars stacks up well against such fierce competition. This game offers a potential for endless hours of fun.

I wonder if Microsoft will make a character brawler now. Just a bunch of space marines punching each other forever.

Locksus4175d ago

Lol. I'd really love to see Microsoft reboot the Killer Instinct series as was rumored a month or two back!

darkronin2294175d ago

And the final boss would be Blinx: The Time Sweeper

SybaRat4175d ago

You had me at "beat up people."

kesvalk4175d ago

i hope this forces nintendo to up the ante in the smash, cuz brawl was very so-so, if it wasn't for the awesome mods i would have played that game maybe... 5 months.

FYI i still play it since the launch, brawl+ and Brawl- is just absolutely awesome.

This looks super cool, I can't wait!

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.

CrimsonWing69521d 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.

PapaBop521d 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.

spoonard521d 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.

Magatsuhi521d 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__Merrin521d 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.

Nyxus528d ago

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

Deathdeliverer527d 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.
