Sony's overlooked all-stars

BT writes: Sony seem to have lost their way. What seemed originally to be a showcase for Sony's exclusive properties, allowing Nathan Drake to kick PaRappa the Rapper in the throat and Sly Cooper to perform a knee-drop on Kratos, has become impure. Cross-platform characters are invading, such as BioShock's Big Daddy and, announced this week, one of the fighters from the Tekken series.

This confuses me, as Sony seems to be skipping over a wealth of unused characters that are exclusive to Sony platforms.

I dont want any of them in the game as playable characters anyway

blitz06234296d ago

Wait, what? Has the full roster been announced already?!!!

Relientk774296d ago (Edited 4296d ago )

Not yet :-/

but the roster looks good so far

shoddy4296d ago

Already in love with this game.
Can't wait.

GodHandDee4296d ago

You know what confuses 'me'? That these stupid journalist fail to understand such bitching should wait until we see the full roster!

And Tekken has been a very important part of Playstation since the start.

JoySticksFTW4296d ago

Tekken is definitely an important part of ps history.

I'd like Lara Croft, Kain, Crash and Medieval characters as well

trinide4296d ago

they tried to put lara croft in the game but some spoke guy from laras company tweeted a message that said: Yeeeeah no thanks

Mkai284296d ago (Edited 4296d ago )

I am starting to believe this game is a mistake, if these are the characters ppl can come up with:(

Honest_gamer4296d ago

i thought of an ingenious idea, hold onto your seat because it's a pretty big bomb shell.
here goes: dont buy it then, stop your bitching on articles and just dont buy it, i wont be getting black ops 2, dont see me on every (or any for that mater) saying black ops 2 is a mistake etc

Mkai284296d ago (Edited 4296d ago )

Soo, just because I say my option on how this game would be a mistake because of these lame characters you sh$t all over your panties? Have we met before where you see me supposedly "bitching" on articles assuming I am that " guy".Get what I am saying, it's not really Sony all stars when it's not even Sony characters. And why do you mention black ops as if I played it? I tell you what, when you pay my mortgage then you can tell me what and what not to buy.

So sorry to have hurt your Sony feelings:(

BitbyDeath4296d ago

Point is you can't say a certain game is a mistake just because you don't like it when obviously thousands if not millions of others could.

Honest_gamer4296d ago

i would love crash to be the last boss he was pretty much the poster "boy" of the ps1 era

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.

CrimsonWing69519d 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.

PapaBop519d 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.

spoonard519d 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.

Magatsuhi519d 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__Merrin519d 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.

Nyxus526d ago

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

Deathdeliverer525d 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.
