STFUandPlay's Rikuson1 writes "Playstation All Stars Battle Royale, where to begin? Is it the best thing since Platinum Trophies? or was it a gigantic flop. Well honestly I’m going to keep it straight with you, It doesn't matter! I’m here to talk about what I THINK of the game. On the behalf of STFUandPlay.com I will be doing this review so these are MY opinions if you don’t like it and please follow the name of the website or you can sit back and read.. if you actually read these things I call Reviews.."
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.
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.
Despite some grammar issues, review was good. Don't know how long he/she's had the game, but unless it was photshopped, to be ranked 999 on at least one character is pretty dedicated. It took me at least 2 hours to get my Kratos to rank 103, though he/she might have been more skilled than I was, so they could have gotten more points thank me in a shorter amount of time.
Some reviewers publish a review ASAP, just to be the first to get them out. Some don't even finish the game, and just review it. At least this reviewer had the dedication to reach rank 999, so I'll trust this reviewer's opinion.
even when he said, "back in the days fighting games had an arcade mode with you go with a series of battles ranging from around 8-12 matches a rival at the end, then a boss battle."
well back in the days, games like mortal kombat, and street fighter had originality, they had the characters, and pretty much a small back story behind each character.
this is what i don't understand. the game has potential however, the game did not need cheesy ass playstation characters, knowing that most playstation characters don't fit this style of play.
so as a fighting game with an out of touch character roster, how can you say the game is great when the formula of this game play is pretty much copy and paste.
if anything the game is decent 2/5
