XMNR: After the announcement of Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale for the Playstation 3, we ran across this image of what a similar game might look like from Microsoft for the Xbox 360 from the Italian site Beavers.it. While this made us laugh out loud but how much truth is there in it? We delve into the catalog of Xbox exclusives to figure out what kind of a fighting game roster we could come up with.
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.
I don't think MS has enough big characters to make a game like that (Master Chief, Marcus....Forza car). It might work if it only had characters from different multiplatform titles, but if it were to go strictly from MS exclusives list, they probably won't be a lot of characters to play with.
MS doesn't have enough characters that people care about
I'd buy it but not full price retail product. I wouldn't even buy the competition's offering, minus Nintendo's, at full price.
There's more characters then people know about. Especially from Xbox 1. There's Abe, azura, masterchief, the lone wolf guy, fusion frenzy, arbiter, Widow maker, Sam fisher, Blinx, blood wake etc then there is Joanna dark, gears, reach, viva piñata, fable etc. they have a lot of characters people are just too ignorant to know it because Microsoft doesn't pump out exclusives anymore.
To tell the truth Microsoft doesn't have enough well known characters for it to make much of a game. Several of Sony's characters are known by the many people who owned PS1 and PS2 games back in the day but most people don't even know who Blinx or Kameo are unless they go look it up.Microsoft was never really known for making memorable characters.
@ h311rais3r. But how many of those are characters do people know? Many people know who Parapper the Rapper, Kratos, Sweet Tooth, Ratchet and Clank and Jak are because many gamers now are ex PlayStation owners but who remembers who Blinx the Cat or what Viva Pinata is? You seem to forget that there where one 150 million plus people who had PS1s and PS2s. That is more people then the Xbox or Xbox 360 had combined. There aren't enough people who remember them. It has nothing to do with ignorance.
