First, the costumes are free, then the characters are next... this game is dying.

chrispseuphoria3912d ago

Well, at least we're getting a patch.

Rodney253911d ago

Hey, maybe it means, sequel. Gotta be optimistic.

Killzoner993912d ago

Awesome , I knew they weren't done supporting this game. Sorry haters. We know they have stages ready to go so new characters won't be far behind.

pacostacos3912d ago

sorry to break the news, but.... "There will not be any new DLC characters or environments released for PS All Stars. We were proud to work with SuperBot Entertainment and they created a great game, but the characters that have already been released to-date represent the full content for PS All Stars"

Dan_scruggs3912d ago

Try reading the article next time.

Killzoner993912d ago

Nobody believes that. Why would they stop supporting it? Do you really believe they don't have the resources to design a few characters for a fighting game lol? Trust me they have many more characters to add and it takes time to get the rights to third party characters.I know the trolls wish this game was dead but it's obvious that there's a lot of life left in this game.

@Killzoner99

Wait, so you don't believe that Sony Santa Monica will no longer add new DLC character or maps, even if they said it themselves?

I think you need to learn how to let go of the things you love.

Lol Killzoner they aren't adding any more characters or maps to the game. The only thing we will get are some new costumes and a much needed character balance. I don't know why you can't just accept that this game is done, it was confirmed right out of the. I own and Santa Monica's mouth. What's next? Sony's confirmation of the PS4's specs are going to be false too?

AirJohnston3912d ago

They're not putting in any new characters or stages because they don't want to take time away from GoW's multiplayer that no one likes.

Misaka_x_Touma3910d ago

oh so you came from the future so tell what next for this game

I disagree.. the game isn't dying... I love Allstars!!! Man I play it every day..

It could definitely use a patch.. The online is terrible at times I hope they release a patch to stabilize that too.

Too bad they won't be adding new fighters..

Allstars rocks yo... Hope we can get a sequel!

thelaughingwiseman3912d ago

disagreeing because he's supporting a game... really cool.

I also like the game. It's a very solid starting off point for PS A

_FantasmA_3912d ago

Whoa WTF? You said you like the game and you get thumbed down? Maybe you should say this game blows and get more likes? What is wrong with these people?
I used to play it everyday too but then I got pissed at the broken belt system. You have to win so much to go up in rank, but you lose 2 or 3 in row and then have to play for a day to just to get back to where you were. Still I'm hoping for a sequel.

andrewer3912d ago

Game Over. Let's see who will try SSB's might next.

chrispseuphoria3912d ago

It is not a Smash Bros ripoff...it is of the same fighting genre. There's a difference.

sloth33953912d ago

i think he is saying it like when it came to other games that have tried to be like Mario kart but just didn't live up to it

andrewer3912d ago (Edited 3912d ago )

sloth3395 is right...All Star... is a crossover fighting game by Sony, but this type of game is done best by Nintendo...since N64.
BTW sloth made me remind of LBP racing...what happened? Did it launch already?

Misaka_x_Touma3910d ago

So characters from a First Party Company fight each other on a stage, where items spawns, characters get KO in time, team or stock match, most KO wins, double jump, guard then roll, air dodge, both have a stage that scrolls up and stages from their games.

Sorry man but really

chrispseuphoria3910d ago

Yes, really. All of those aspects are a part of the genre. You don't say Tekken, Soul Calibur and Street Fighter are clones because they all have health bars or specials?

Nice try troll. This is by no means a Smash clone. In fact I bet Nintendo steals a few ideas from Allstars.

andrewer3912d ago

ROFL I laughed so much you have no idea... You made my day man haha

It is a rip off in basic concept only.

Anyone who is still trying to paint the actual game so is more ignorant than I thought was possible. Completely different gameplay, completely different feel, completely different characters with unique abilities and mechanics, completely different online gameplay, and completely different tactics required to win, with a deeper level of strategy.

It's true that All-Stars owes itself to Smash Bros - even the developers have admitted that - but calling it a rip off is disingenuous when the same thing isn't applied to how other genres developed, and how some of people's favourite games were influenced by others.

Edit: Looking on your comment it doesn't look like you implied it was a rip off. I have definitely have had more fun with Smash Bros in the past, and I too think the recent games are more polished game than All-Stars was. If you didn't like it fair play, but in no way is All-Stars a poor game, and for its first outing did a damn fine job.

andrewer3912d ago

And I only meant that SSB is the best CROSS-OVER brawler, and that SSB is better in CROSS-OVER brawler than Allstars. I played allstars and didn't like it at all, so I'm not ignorant - I tried, hard.

Cool even as unbalanced as it is still a fun game good to see a patch is coming.

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.

Deathdeliverer520d 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.
