It's not a bad game by any stretch, but ultimately it's a jack of all trades. It can't match Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. for accessibility, and at the same time it falls short of the deeper combat subtlety of serious brawlers like Street Fighter. It's not terrible, but it's not amazing.
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.
Yes the power kills spoilt it completely WTH was they thinking you should have hp bar that's it
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.
Lol... Street Fighter a serious brawler... Hadoken! Hadoken! Hadoken! Hadoken! Yep...
No offense to those who like it, but all you do is the same thing over and over again. It was a wonderful series back in the day, but the new one feels overrated.
The fact of the matter is there will be those reviewers and those on forums who will disagree with our own take on games, movies and so on. We may not hold their reasons valid, but I think it's a simply matter of accepting our differences of opinion. I don't play fighting games too much (I get blisters within 5 minutes of playing SFIV), but I do enjoy PSABR. While not the greatest fighting game, I do believe it's pretty good for it's first entry and I give it a solid 8-8.5/10. I prefer to play it on the Vita because I can play it in short burst, and have fun (even though I've lost all my matches so far). It's more intimate to play on the Vita.
The day i consider reviews from abc will be a cold day in hell.
LOL at the disagree. I'm sorry apparently I am wrong in saying that people may have differences in opinions and how I like to play PSABR. I clearly must be wrong. What I find interesting about people on these forums is they cannot accept people's difference of opinion on games whether pro or con. If it's an outrageous score where you think it deserves a 9 and it gets a 3 then quite understandable. Yet the personal attack such as name calling is praised amongst our peers. We name call and get agrees without any attempt of explanation for said name calling; although if you're an adult there really should be no need for name calling. Let's use our intelligence to have a friendly debate to see where we may agree or differ and not resort to trivial name calling, because as much as people may get agrees for calling someone an insult, it merely shows the immaturity, which may lead one to believe they lack the maturity and articulation to express oneself in an articulate manner.
