Will wait from a official announcement from either Sony themselves or from Superbot. they have said nothing yet. A single tweet isn't solid proof at all.
Yup same here, if this is true then that is really disappointing. The fact that they would put in garbage characters like the new Dante, Heihachi and the big daddy just to help advertise new games coming out is shameful.
It's also frustrating because this has the potential to be an utterly amazing game and address frustrations that I have with playing Smash Brothers, but they seem to have just screwed up in the silliest ways.
I just hope that if the game does indeed launch like this, that reviews heavily criticize them for the dumb decisions that they've made, knock down the scores because of it and hopefully Superbot Entertainment will get the message that way, since they seem intent on ignoring the fans.
It doesn't matter how good the title is or how much DLC will follow as there are those that will inevitably use this news to attack the game. Just wait and ...oops, too late.
Wait... what original fighting has had like 30 characters to play with???
You build a strong foundation, try to balance out the fighters the best way you can, and then you create more and more characters for the following sequels...
Hopefully your right because if this IS true then I'm really disapointed in this game
It had so much potential but the more I hear about new editions and characters that we don't really want it makes me try harder to like it...and for a video game I shouldn't have to do that.
No Optional Health mode (MY BIGGEST CONCERN)
No Snake
No Tomba
No Gabe Logan
No FF character
No Ico character
No Crash
No Spyro
No Resistance character
No Shadow of the Colossus character
New Dante instead of classic Dante
MGS Rising Raiden instead of Snake or MGS2 Raiden
Two Coles when they could of been one (switch between them)
Original voices for Nariko, Jak for example are not present
Two third party characters that seem like they are promoting their future games.
I could go on...
Maybe it's a game which could improve in the sequel, I'm not saying it's going to be crap since we havent played it, I'll still buy it but when people have been asking for this game for years how could they get some things wrong.
Take Crash Bandicoot for exampe...I thought Omar said in an interview that they wouldn't add him as DLC and we should "stay tuned"...if that was it for the characters why didn't he say so instead of getting our hopes up. If I have to pay DLC for Tomba, Old Dante, Snake, a FF character for example then why should I, these things should of been in the game at the start since they were the Number 1 requested things since the very start of us crying out for a game like this.
If this is true...then they lead us on. If people are upset or disapointed then complain, don't sit back and try to look on the good side because remember "You don't get anything if you don't try".
"No Crash" - Activision owned. "No Spyro" - Activision owned. "No Resistance character" - It's a shooter. "New Dante instead of classic Dante" - It's a publisher/marketing decision. "MGS Rising Raiden instead of Snake or MGS2 Raiden" - It's a publisher/marketing decision. "Two Coles when they could of been one (switch between them)" - They have completely different attacks in inFamous....why not in PSAS?
@SilentNegotiator. Using Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl's Zelda as an example; Zelda and Shiek can transform back and forth from one to the other any time in any fight. Both have movesets and tactics that are polar opposites of eachother. This is likely similar, if not precisely what Carl_Shocker was getting at about how Good Cole and Evil Cole should have been the same character.
the characters complains are reasonable except that cole thing because even in infamous you cant change between them . the optional health mode is a woooow dunno what to say first try the game as it is with open mind then judge it i saw many many videos and it looks super fun like that in my opinion
finally wanted to say yeah you are right about not believing this tweet because it is a gaming STUNT
I sure hope so, since I speculated this 30 days ago and got several disagrees and people telling me more people would be announced at TGS. Sure it's sad to hear they're done announcing, but I still rather have nothing than a Hot Shot Golfer or something equally worthless.
Don't fall for it everyone, its a Lie. Same Lie tactic like Jaffe used about Twisted Metal PS3. Nothing wrong with trying to surprise fans with a white lie but comeon..this is just too obvious. :)
I don't see why people automatically assume Sony is trying to throw a curve ball, I mean you DO realize they have to market and sell this game right? Even Sony isn't stupid enough to say the roster is full and then announce even more characters down the road. I mean seriously, it comes out in 5 weeks (in Japan), so do you really think huge characters are going to be announced RIGHT before it releases? The article is nothing more than wishful thinking, sure they can be right, but there is a 100% chance you're not going to unlock Crash, Spyro, someone from FF that wasn't announced prior to release.
The game does NOT release on Nov 8th in Japan.... It's been said that the people who have been keeping up with all the info about this game knows what they are talking about. Which is why many are not believing this guys twitter comment.
I bet some of you even thought the Japan 8th date was true ay? :) It's Q4 Winter for Japan folks
I guess I am wrong about the release date (Famitsu misreported), but I stand by the time issue. Just because there are missing spots on a website page or the mention of unlockables, doesn't instantly mean Sony is throwing a curveball. I've played several games where they pulled the same shit. Look at Tekken Tag 2, here is a "complete" roster page http://i.imgur.com/61c18.pn... However, when you play the game without DLC, the characters before Forest Law and after Alex are blank empty worthless squares. My point being, just because there is space, doesn't mean they're going to be filled with unannounced launch characters. Honestly, I read the fan site and don't see their creditability because they want it to be better. We could all be wrong, but I don't see their guessing game being more elaborate than their actual game.
Whatever they are doing, curveball PR (they did a bad job if that's the case) or lack of characters, it's too late cuz I already canceled my pre-order when I read this.
Lost my $12 off discount from newegg and don't think whatever they have hidden is enough to make me buy this at full price again.
The initial roster for characters is just so bad, I'm not even gonna think about how much they'll try to milk the customers with character DLCs.
Superbot is made up of random people they hired, even if some are from the fighting game community, they aren't professionals that worked on big titles before, and few of them are even Sony fans.
I like Sony games, but not gonna blindly trust and buy Superbot's game just cuz they are associated with Sony. Heck this game doesn't even have half the cast from games that really made the Playstation big. Their lack of effort to negotiate and secure characters in the first place means this project should've never been started in the first place.
Maybe there are some blind sheep fans that will pay full price for this game and get milked dry by DLC characters, but I'm not gonna be one of them. Show me a well deserved game from the start and you can take all the money you want. People will pay if the product is really worth the money, but people will stop buying your stuff if you are just gonna abuse their loyalty.
I would imagine a lot of 3rd party characters that people really want will be sold as DLC. So while my fellow Sony fans will click disagree I will still say it
Wait for a GOTY edition with all the characters,skins and stages plus more.
When it comes to fighting games it's worth waiting IMO otherwise you will want all the stuff and it's ginna cost you double the game price and than some
But when a single tweet form IBM that doesnt even say "WiiU has no Watson technology inside and its processor is not related to or based on Watson" the whole world screams WiiU is doomed! It is 2 Wiis duct taped together!!!
this is a perfect gaming stunt i think people have only 2 active brain cells while the rest are probably dead OR they are kids ( no brain developed yet LOL ) buy the game and be surprised with what you unlock or find in the game they must really have that kind of classic gaming feel ( the sense of surprise ) i hate modern gaming things like nearly spoiling everything about the game before the thing is even released just wait be patient and use that piece of meat god gave to you its called the brain for your information
NOTE : super bot said they have over 20 characters in the game i guess the picture is clear now
That's disappoiting if true, then I'm getting LBP Karting as the PS3 exclusive game of this fall instead of PSABR, then Halo 4, AC 3 and Hitman: Absolution.
But Superbot themselves said that they still have reveals and never confirmed that this was the final roster. Why tell it to him so he can blurt it out rather then make it official?
@ Nimblest-Assassin. That is why it sounds strange. So much evidence pointed towards 20 plus characters and now a single person, not even officially, claims it is only twenty. It doesn't sound right at all.
@ pedrami91. I know you are upset but you need to stop saying nonsense. There are only four third party charters in the whole game. Four out of sixteen whole characters. Lets not fly off the handle here.
@ pedrami Your list is so good it makes me want to bone you... vigorously. Alundra, Rollcage, Jumping Flash, Vib Ribbon: all obscure but such overwhelmingly awesome games. How come a stranger on N4G gets it, yet the mooks over at SuperBot don't. Instead we get two Coles and Big Daddy.
You got the wrong facts in the article it says hes the "PlayStation Blog senior social media specialist" so he doesn't work at Sony Santa Monica. I believe Superbot would make the announcement of how many total characters and not this guy over his twitter page. I'll believe it when Superbot says so
I agree, I mean ehh........they got the new Dante and Raiden from MGR: R. And honestly a Big Daddy isn't the first thing you think of when you hear or talk about playstation, but yes Bioshock is an amazing franchise.
Well I am not sure why you expected Spyro or Crash because Sony doens't own them anymore (and Sony never owned Tomba or FF). It would be up to Square-Enix and Activision if they would be included and there probably isn't a finatial incentive to do so
Well for one, I'll wait on SuperBot to chime in...
But anyway, I don't care, because this game is already amazing. I'm not going to let myself feel down because this game has 20 characters instead of 21. If the DLC is worth it, I'll buy it. Or it could be free, who knows.
Unlike some of you, I'm not going to over react because of one tweet from a guy who has nothing to do with the game.
I wanted so many more JRPG characters though. I never played a whole lot of Tekken so, that character disappoints me. Never played Bioshock, so not interested in Big Daddy either. I want Sora and an FF character. They would confirm my purchase on Day 1.
Laughing how people wanna cancel preorders because they don't have Cloud, spyro etc LMAO. You wanna cancel your preorder over a game just because they're missing a few characters ? I'm sure there's a reason they're NOT in the game obviously.
Gamers this generation are absolutely disgusting.
It's one thing if they were ANNONCED and not in the final game, but they wasn.t They were never confirmed and people raging about it ? LOL, gamers are too self centered for me to even talk to this gen.
I think those complaints are legit. When you hear the title "PlayStation AllStars" you expect Crash, Spyro, Snake, Sora, Cloud you know...characters that helped make the PlayStation brand what it is today.
If a game doesn't meet expectations, through whatever means, cancelling pre-orders is fine. You don't want to spend $60, a lot of money for some people, on something that isn't going to to satisfy you.
If other characters are planned through DLC that's fine, but hopefully they won't hold out any of the ones everyone wanted on the disc. Would be a pretty terrible move on Sony's part.
Lol the game looks fun, all because it doesn't have a few characters doesn't mean I will cancel my preorder.
Wait SORA ? I'm a huge kingdom hearts fan, however the brand was established WAYYYY Before Sora was even in existence lmao. Sora isn't a iconic Character like Snake, or Cloud.
Again, they were never confirmed, as usual people build overhype themselves and reality smacked them in the face. Sony can only do so much, it's up to these companies on whether or not they want these characters in the game. If they approach square enix and Square said no, how is that Sony's fault ?
Do people even look into how certain characters got into the game ? If people learned anything this generation, it should be don't be dillusional. I didn't expect Cloud to be in this game, if he was in this game, he would'v been announced A LONG time ago.
If they declined their offers of what they want, and instead offered other Characters instead what you say then ? They can only do so much, the game looks good and they've listened to the community and DID what they could, also put as many characters as these companies would allow them. So yes I will stand by my statement of gamers are too self centered and selfish.
Did you guys seriously think that all your favorite PS characters would be in this game? If so y'all are very naive. How many characters did SSB have in their roster when it first came out? 12, but nobody complained about it. It was painfully obviously that not all the characters you guys mentioned in previous All-stars post would make it in the game.
Nobody complained because it had all the big name characters from all the IPs Nintendo had at the time other than Fire Emblem. Plus in that gen you couldnt really complain since the internet wasnt as big as it is today.
So you're telling me characters like Kratos, Nathan Drake, Cole Macgrath, Sweet Tooth, Sackboy, Rachet & Clank, Sly Cooper, Jak & Daxter, and Toro (In Japan) aren't big-name Sony characters at "this" time?
So let say this, If the All-Star roster consist of Crash, Spyro, Cloud, Snake, Kratos, Nathan Drake, Sweet Tooth, Sackboy, Rachet & Clank, Sly Cooper, Jak & Daxter, Toro and only these 12 characters would you still buy the game with no complaints?
That isn't my point (about the complains), my point was that nobody complained about it because nobody care about roster size back then (should of elaborated on that one). They were to busy playing the actually game to care how many characters were in it. Back then it was all about gameplay, now of days people nit-pick every little thing about a game instead of enjoying it for what it is.
If Nintendo were generous enough to include Solid Snake in their game, a character that barely appeared on their platform then I think Sony should do it not out of generosity but for the fact that SOLID SNAKE and the METAL GEAR SOLID franchise was mainly part of the PLAYSTATION universe and a franchise that helped PLAYSTATION to become what it is today . Shame SONY, SHAME!
You have Raiden, sony probably figured they might as well pick a character not in a fighting game already. Maybe Big boss will be DLC, but I doubt snake will be in it.
Raiden isn't a good substitute. Fans of the series still don't really care for him. What would have been cool would be a villain. Vamp or friggin Psycho Mantis, or Grey Fox. Heck I'd even be fine with Meryl to an extent.
I don't mind Raiden being in the game, but he needs someone to go with him for me to be happy.
If this is true, I won't be buying this game anytime soon. I'll wait for it to drop in price, and use the saved money to buy the rest of the characters as DLC.
No snake, spyro, crash, anything? If Activision isn't letting them use Crash then they need to come out and state it because the fans will destroy Activision till they do....
I love my fair share of Sony exclusive titles and all but this game is so far away from my list of games to get it's not even funny. In fact, if I saw it in a $5 clearance bin at Walmart (which I predict just may happen in short order), I'll probably hang onto it as a "Maybe" and see if something else is in the pile of game shame before opting to go with this one.
Great question...perhaps...and I know this is a radical answer but... Because this is a discussion board?
You want to sing the praises of a fighting game filled with characters that span the Playstation universe and look totally and completely out of place next to one another? Have at it. I hope you like it.
It sure is a discussion but your first little rant has nothing but negative things to say about this game, which clearly shows you either weren't getting this to begin with so why even comment on it when there is no point. Or your just looking to get attention, which sadly for me your little rant worked... when i don't care about a game as strongly as u do for this one you know what i do? Stay the f**k out of its articles and let others enjoy it with no scrutiny from someone who doesn't care about it.
The game looks horrible and I predict failure. I may be wrong, I may not, but regardless I wanted to see the list because I'm a gamer. Don't like my comments, that's fine by me - pretend they're games you have no interest in going forward and "Stay the f**k out" of the comment
Forums existed since back in Ancient Rome for people to gather up in groups and discuss things they agree or disagree with. In case you haven't caught on, you are writing this on a forum, open to people to discuss opinions of the game, whether they shower a game with praise and glory or they don't. Don't like it? Then you, my good sir, don't belong on a forum.
Apparently, everyone wanted a cast of 40+. This is a game that will evolve through DLC and per every generation from now on. Patience. Then again, I can't wait for all the hate when the next Super Smash comes out.
Honestly, I'm just sore Kat hasn't been confirmed yet.
I think I mentioned this on another thread, the game is supposed to be brawl, awesome, party fighting game like SSBB, but they're leaving out the characters from the PS1 era that game them so much diversity.
Sony should've tried to continue Spyro and Crash into this gen, and continue R&C and J& D into this gen as well like Nintendo did with their own franchises.
The people who made Spyro and R&C and the people who made Crash and J&D make Resistance and Uncharted games, but realistic graphic looking games, that are both shooters. Even the company that made Sly Cooper makes inFamous, a realistic heavy third-person game.
Now I'm not saying that Uncharted or Resistance or Infamous are bad games - they good - some great, it just shows you how graphics have really set back the creativity and overall riskiness of these releases. Developers are afraid to try new things entirely on this gen for the PS3 and 360, and insist on making heavily realistic games that are based on the real-world and either look the same, play the same, or feel the same.
Now, with no Crash, Spyro, Snake, or any FF character, many people don't want to buy it. We all want the characters that made the PSOne.

I was expecting more, since they said over 20... but this disappoints the piss out of me
It's also frustrating because this has the potential to be an utterly amazing game and address frustrations that I have with playing Smash Brothers, but they seem to have just screwed up in the silliest ways.
I just hope that if the game does indeed launch like this, that reviews heavily criticize them for the dumb decisions that they've made, knock down the scores because of it and hopefully Superbot Entertainment will get the message that way, since they seem intent on ignoring the fans.
I counted cole twice by the way
Good cole and evil cole
>Not as good as SSB. FUD FUD FUD FUD FUD
These are not all. No more being announced means we'll find the rest of them out ourselves.
You build a strong foundation, try to balance out the fighters the best way you can, and then you create more and more characters for the following sequels...
It had so much potential but the more I hear about new editions and characters that we don't really want it makes me try harder to like it...and for a video game I shouldn't have to do that.
No Optional Health mode (MY BIGGEST CONCERN)
No Snake
No Tomba
No Gabe Logan
No FF character
No Ico character
No Crash
No Spyro
No Resistance character
No Shadow of the Colossus character
New Dante instead of classic Dante
MGS Rising Raiden instead of Snake or MGS2 Raiden

cry more
"No Spyro" - Activision owned.
"No Resistance character" - It's a shooter.
"New Dante instead of classic Dante" - It's a publisher/marketing decision.
"MGS Rising Raiden instead of Snake or MGS2 Raiden" - It's a publisher/marketing decision.
"Two Coles when they could of been one (switch between them)" - They have completely different attacks in inFamous....why not in PSAS?
First 2 points are moot since Big Daddy, Heihachi, Dante and Raiden aren't owned by Sony.
Radec is from Killzone, which is a shooter. Another moot point.
They charge MS for COD being on XBL, for crap's sake. Activision would never be worth renting out characters from.
And we don't need MORE shooter characters. So, no, not a moot point.
Using Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl's Zelda as an example; Zelda and Shiek can transform back and forth from one to the other any time in any fight. Both have movesets and tactics that are polar opposites of eachother. This is likely similar, if not precisely what Carl_Shocker was getting at about how Good Cole and Evil Cole should have been the same character.

Monetize nostalgia. >:/
(let's hope not)
Just sayin.
i think people have only 2 active brain cells while the rest are probably dead OR they are kids ( no brain developed yet LOL )
buy the game and be surprised with what you unlock or find in the game they must really have that kind of classic gaming feel ( the sense of surprise )
i hate modern gaming things like nearly spoiling everything about the game before the thing is even released
just wait be patient and use that piece of meat god gave to you its called the brain for your information

Im also pissed that Sony didn't dig deeper into their 1st party games.
There were so many other potential chars and stage mashups that could've used:
Tomba
Dart from Legend of Dragoon
Alundra
Vib Ribbon
Kula World (no, seriously)
Jaster from Rogue Galaxy
Rollcage stage
Robbit from Jumping Flash
And many many more.
Your list is so good it makes me want to bone you... vigorously. Alundra, Rollcage, Jumping Flash, Vib Ribbon: all obscure but such overwhelmingly awesome games. How come a stranger on N4G gets it, yet the mooks over at SuperBot don't. Instead we get two Coles and Big Daddy.
That friggin' sucks !
No PS1 Crash ?
No PS1 Spyro ?
No Tomba ?
Not even a FF character ?
Sorry but right now this game screams "3rd Party Marketing: The Game"
And i ain't buying that.
That be obvious.
But anyway, I don't care, because this game is already amazing. I'm not going to let myself feel down because this game has 20 characters instead of 21. If the DLC is worth it, I'll buy it. Or it could be free, who knows.

sounds very unlikely.
If it's false then that guy should be fired.
