The outline is supposed to indicate that the characters are ready to pull off their super moves (that's what the energy bar at the bottom is for). it's a three-tier super, and you need to use supers to be able to defeat opponents.

they should've used some other type of indicator, it makes the characters look like colorforms stuck to a background

While this is extra shameless, Sony's entire software strategy on PS1 was built upon copying other popular games. Heck, the only reason Syphon Filter even exists is due to Sony wanting a counter to Goldeneye.
Besides, the two last times Sony did a blatant copy of something Nintendo, they made something better.

What's the other thing? I can only think of CTR. I don't think you mean Frobisher Says.
So your saying we don't even need the WiiU because Sony is bringing all of Nintendo's franchises into HD themselves?
Wollan and Kittonwy were fine because they were larger-than-life goofballs that were serious about their devotion but not that serious about how they came off. They made me laugh (sometimes). There are way worse Sony fans on gaf currently.
I actually quite like Wollan, but Kittonwy ended up coming across as a bit too creepy in the end.
I couldn't actually tell you who the banner boy PS fan is now?

have nintendo fans seen this picture yet...
it's from SuperBot's website.
Also, I hope the Toro in the background is confirmation of Sony kitties in this game.
Still, no interest in playing it since the Sony cast are not people I want to play as in fighting games.
Give me Robbit from Jumping Flash! and I'm in.
What happened to PARAPPA didn't even PARAPPA Psp do ok
Parappa 2 did okay, but not anywhere near Parappa 1's numbers. Umjammer Lammy was a disaster, actually. They shipped a ton but it ended up being rotten stock. And the PSP port of Parappa 1 had the unfortunate job of being a full-priced PS1 game on PSP that dropped just before Sony added $5.99 PS1 games to the thing. It sold accordingly.
I would love to see Parappa make a comeback, but I don't know if there's a place for him anymore. :'(
they could put four tiny dots on the screen and a soundtrack consisting of a single note playing over and over and it would still be a better game than playstation move heroes
in case you are not picking up on the subtlety playstation move heroes is a really shitty game
I just need to hear that Jersey Devil is in this and they've got my money.
Whoa, I completely forgot that game existed. My cousin had it. I don't remember liking it.
Edit: A2M made that. :lol
Ass2Mouth :bow2
Making pure shit for generations and survivin' like a motherfucker :bow2
Nope that's a real quote (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=37334939&postcount=2436)
Wollan was an employee of Sony and was compensated for his "work" on GAF.
Just throwing that out there. That's not even a "guess" or a "hunch".
Sony should put Parapa 1 on PSX Classics and PARAPPA 2 on ps2 although I heard they're unplayable with HDTVs. PARAPPA PSP rules tho
They have a garbage thread for SSB vs SSB (Sony's Smash Bros) flamewars now :lol

no one ever remembers blinx or voodoo vince :(
This game looks so shitty that my mind is blown that some distinguished mentally-challenged fellow at Sony greenlit the funding for this turkey.
I think the real problem is that Smash a character-driven affair. It gives spergs glee to see Mario fighting Fox who will fight Link. Sony characters aren't anywhere remotely interesting.Fixed that for ya.
Maybe Sony can pay good money to have Mega Man or Sonic in this game.
I think the real problem is that Smash a character-driven affair. It gives spergs glee to see Mario fighting Fox who will fight Link. Sony characters aren't anywhere near as well known or iconic. So you have a party game featuring a bunch of unknown characters (while banking its success on how well the unknown characters will be known) who will be glowing. There isn't a sizable contingent of people who know of Parappa and even fewer people who want to have Parappa fight against Kratos.
Maybe Sony can pay good money to have Mega Man or Sonic in this game.

my question is why isnt this day and date on vita
lol generic mouse
lol generic plumber generic talking animals lol
because it's become increasingly obvious they don't have a fucking clue what to do with vita, in typical sony fashion they just threw it out there and went TA-DA! and expected everyone to fall all over it, and then the cricket sounds.
just like ps eye. just like ps move. only this thing costs the same price as their home console.
two games have been announced in the last two months (this, and lbp karting) which would have been perfectly suitable for a handheld, and in both cases "no plans for vita." they really, truly, have absolutely no idea what the fuck they're doing. they will abandon the fuck out of the vita as soon as the PS4 is officially announced.

The graphics look so ugly and charmless though... Parappa's face looks fucked up, the backgrounds look kinda ugly and drab, and the white glow around the characters makes shit even worse. Brawl didn't look as aesthetically pleasing and consistent compared to Melee, but still looks a helluva lot better than this.Sounds like a Sony game to me.
That said, I'm interested in seeing what other characters make it in, see how obscure they get. Fat Princess is a good start, but Sony's success was made off its 3rd parties. Cloud, Solid Snake, Lara Croft, Claude (GTAIII), Dante... should all be in. And also a Wipeout stage that plays similar to Big Blue.
I kind of wonder how many third party characters they can afford. Contrary to what Dr. Takao thinks, unless there's some kind of quid pro quo thing going on, licensing characters usually costs money. It's especially hard to dangle the free advertising thing with an unproven first installment that will also have other third party characters barging in on your free promotion.
Even with Smash Bros., Sonic was a quid pro quo involved with the Mario & Sonic Olympic deal, and Snake involved money changing hands.
it's pretty clear the game is aimed at a lame casual western audience,i'd rather expect something like commander shepard before any cloud,megaman or solid snake's
Who paid who for Snake in Brawl? I can't see Nintendo forking out for him. Konami paying Nintendo, maybe.
Ape Escape
If there needs to be Capcom characters I feel like it would be right for Volnutt. But we're never going to see that MegaMan ever again outside of gambling cellphone games :(
:rofl
Megaman and Goemon are hanging around on that farm in the sky retired mascots get sent to. My heart has healed, I will move on.
I'd probably kill him myself before such a thing comes to pass.Megaman and Goemon are hanging around on that farm in the sky retired mascots get sent to. My heart has healed, I will move on.
Victor Ireland still wants to localize Goemon on PS2.

No, seriously, what the fuck is wrong with Parappa's face?
Has he been doing meth ever since his career went down the shitter?
The player takes on the role of PaRappa, a paper-thin rapping dog, who is trying to win the heart of a flower-like girl named Sunny Funny. However, he is intimidated by the presence of Joe Chin, a rich, narcissistic dog who goes overboard with his attempts to impress Sunny.
To impress Sunny Funny, PaRappa learns to fight at a kung-fu dojo, and takes a driver's education course to get his license. However when he crashes his Dad's car, he has to earn money at a flea market to pay for it. When Sunny's birthday comes up, PaRappa has to get cake, but ends up ruining it after an encounter with Joe. He makes a new one by watching a cooking show, and proceeds to eat a lot of it on the day. When spending some time alone with Sunny, he is suddenly overcome with the need to go to the bathroom. PaRappa has to rap against his previous teachers in order to get to the front of the line to the toilet.
Then one night, PaRappa is invited to Club Fun, and asks Sunny to go with him, to which she agrees. PaRappa then raps on stage with everybody, rapping solo at the end of the song and expressing his feelings for Sunny.
Who paid who for Snake in Brawl? I can't see Nintendo forking out for him. Konami paying Nintendo, maybe.
Nintendo paid a nominal fee for him. Do you think there was anything in it for Konami? They had no MGS games planned for Wii, and while Smash does sell more than MGS, it's not like being in Smash was going to sell more copies of MGS4. No quid pro quo came out of it. No Konami projects got any extra advertising from Nintendo. So even if the idea was Sakurai and Kojima saying it would be awesome, the bean-counters at Konami are still going to want *something* out of the deal.

I haven't kept up on gaming news for years, and even when I did it was more of a time waster than thinking I had any inside track on the industry, but that said -
Isn't MGS a non-franchise in Japan and Snake in SSB would boost it's general recognition, and Kojima asked for him to be included. I seem to vaguely remember that.
This game needs more SCEJ characters. I don't give a shit about Drake and 'looks like every other western character design' Cole.

Hello PlayStation, I’m Seth Killian. A few of you may know me as a familiar face in the world of fighting games, but I’m writing today to say that I’ve joined Sony as the lead game designer for the external group at the Sony’s Santa Monica Studio.
I was excited to join Santa Monica Studio in particular because of the chance to work with some great individuals, but also because of the incredible range of projects they take on. If you head out of my office and turn right, you’ll run into the “God of War: Ascension” team. If you turn left, you’ll find the Giant Sparrow crew working on “The Unfinished Swan.” There are other amazing studios in the world, but nowhere else that I know where you can find that kind of diversity combined with such a deep commitment to greatness–which also happens to sum up what’s so exciting to me about Sony overall.
The external group works with Sony’s outside studios — teams like Queasy Games (Sound Shapes), Fun Bits Interactive (Escape Plan), thatgamecompany (Flower, Journey), and… SuperBot Entertainment, makers of PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale!
Fighting games are very close to my heart, and as someone that’s spent much of my life with traditional fighters, All-Stars has been a great opportunity to take a step back and rethink fighting fundamentals from the ground up. The entire team was put together from scratch to create this game, and they are loaded with fighting game superstars (including some impressive tournament credentials–I’m not even the first EVO finalist to join the team!) who love great combat just as much as I do.
All-Stars is also a total love-letter to Sony fans. From the characters, to their special moves, to the incredible level 3 supers, and the stages themselves, I’m not sure there’s ever been such a giant dose of fan-service in Sony history. Beyond great character designs or all the ingenious little ideas that make combat feel great, the real test of a great game to me is that “just *one* more game!” feeling. If it’s 3am and you have to work the next day, but you’ve still got the urge to play again, you know you’re doing something right. You only have to walk through SuperBot’s studio and see all the staff being scolded to stop playing their own game andget back to work to know that they’ve really got something special cooking.
You don’t have to take my word for it, however–we’ll be taking All-Stars on the road and making sure you guys have plenty of opportunities to go hands-on, starting with PlayStation’s first official presence at EVO this weekend. More details soon.
For everyone that’s already reached out, thank you so much for the kind welcome into PlayStation Nation, and for everyone else, I look forward to doing my absolute best to give PlayStation fans the great games they deserve.

:zzz
xbots bashing a game getting one of the best fighting game designers on it WHODUVE THUNK IT ::) ::) ::)
So apparently Crash, Spyro, Snake, Cloud, and Lara Croft won't be in this game. I'm not surprised SCE would make a mascot fighter without you know, the mascots of their platforms given they made a platform without securing the games that would sell said platform.
I know someone will bring up the Activision bitchiness, and that's probably why the two platformers are gone. But apparently both Musashi and Lightning are going to be in this game ... ? I guess Square Enix wouldn't want Croudu since it implies they'll do something with FF VII but meh.
This is kinda the shittiest roster for a mascot fighting game ever.
Even this is better

It's not like this is SNK and all your characters basically look the same.
Superbot just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about crossover fighters (I'm an expert), but memorable characters are a huge part of it. It's not like this is SNK and all your characters basically look the same. By neglecting beloved Sony games, Superbot brings shame to themselves, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the gaming public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale for either system, nor will they purchase any of Superbot's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Superbot has alienated an entire market with this move.
Superbot, publicly apologize and remove terrible characters like nega Cole and DINO or you can kiss your business goodbye.
I dunno man, SNK fighters are my go to 2D ones. I should've made it about a comment about Microsoft and Master Chief but I wasn't thinking.
But seriously though, DINO and Nega Cole are stupid. I can understand Raiden since the game doesn't have anyone really who uses a sword, and I can understand SE being a bitch and only giving Lightning but ugh. No one wants DINO, or Nega Cole. Cole is probably one of the most ugly lead character designs I've ever seen. His proposed redesign for the second one looked so much better, but apparently people like generic looking characters.
nobody knows what the fuck half the jargon we use means, but 'dino' is shorter than 'that new version of dante from the ninja theory game'
yeah, you lose the oldsters like sho nuff who don't play anything except iphone pinball anymore, but it's probably an acceptable casualty
DINO = Dante In Name Only
At least I think that's what they mean. When people say GINO, they're talking about Godzilla (in name only) from that Matthew Broderick movie.
DINO is Dante from DmC. DMC fanbase decided to copy Godzilla weaboo's GINO (Godzilla In Name Only) and tailor it to him.
Does anyone actually expect this to be a good game? I'm surprised it has like three threads on GAF.

It'll be fun in the same way that that Modnation Racers was fun (i.e. no one will give a shit).
Do any first party releases really get shit on during release. It's usually later during lttp threads and such when the hype has died down when threads get really negative.
Starhawk was terrible. If I was still on GAF I would have shitted on that terrible game as much as possible.
This game also looks terrible. I don't understand why Sony characters fighting other Sony characters sounds fun.
I didn't mind the single player, but for the mp to be garbage in a mostly mp game is badI'm sure the SP is'nt too bad.
I find mascot fighting games fun for the part where I go "Man they really captured that character's persona" or "lol thats true to the character". I mostly find them fun when they are characters that have personality and are endearing. Which is not something I would say for a great deal of Sony's characters. Why the hell would I care about who can beat who?Starhawk was terrible. If I was still on GAF I would have shitted on that terrible game as much as possible.

Why does anyone find mascot fighters fun? Cause they can finally answer the question of who'd win a fight between Kratos or Nariko. The roster for this game is kind of janky, but obviously I don't have a problem with the concept of it existing.

Kratos is a cool looking character who's got over the top anger issues. Far from the best "Sony has no personality" picks that even got in this roster.
I doubt you got permed for trolling Gust games (unless you straight up called someone a pedophile for playing those games or something :lol) but rather having awful opinions you'd never shut up about. Which you're certainly displaying in this thread.There's nothing awful about my real opinions. How dare you say that. And no I won't shut up about them, because no I'll defend the way I think. And if you banned someone for that, then wtf. There's plenty of people who think "shitty things". Oh I'm sorry that I happen to disagree with you dosent mean you get to shut me out. And I did get banned for trolling a Gust thread and calling them games that pander. I didnt call anyone a pedophile though. Thats wrong.

actually im right, im much smarter then you are and know more about all of thes echaracters then u. kratos is a p**sy,e he has no regeneration ability, dante would simply cut him half. either bayo or dante could flick nariko in the head and she would explode.
derp
Goddamn, this game is becoming more of a jokes with every new update. It perfectly sums up the state Sony is in perfectly; uninspired output, forgettable first party efforts, horrible 3rd party relations, but most important of all complete lack of market awareness. It's just one bad investment after the other.
I will undergo a gender corrective surgery if this turns out to be a huge success.
:rofl @ TWO Coles
Most people wanted Crash or Spyro and they get two Coles and DINO.

Dino can't be defended, but reusing a model isn't going to take the place of a whole new character. A clone is basically a freebie.
Anyway, Crash and Spyro suck too.
Does Sony own the rights to Robbit? I read there was some issue with Tomba and Alundra, but I don't know how accurate that is. It seems weird as hell that Sony wouldn't actually wholly own IPs they published.
the issue with robbit is that nobody fucking cares about robbit
Can anyone post the new leak info? That gaf thread is unreadable. I guess there are 3 Tekken characters now?
I don't mind derivative shit, but this looks like derivative shit. the damage mechanic in Smash Bros is what makes the game fun. go play Melee with HP instead of percent-based damage. it's ass.
To get meter you have to be hitting dudes, but with four players you are liable to get buttfucked because someone else is playing like ass. At that point it becomes about who can monopolize wailing on the cripple, I guess. maybe that's fun. kinda doubt it.
Not to say the game doesn't appear to have issues outside of the damage model, but it's by far the most glaring and easiest to fix.
What i dont like about the game is that you can probably target a weaker player and get your ap up to 3rd level and kill everyone. It is a dumb system all round.
I disagree that HP makes Smash unfun. Similar games like Jump Superstars and Power Stone use HP and those are fun.
Describe this game without using words like "Smash Bros." and "mascot brawler".
They could have at least come up with a different looking results screen.
What? Me again? Wasn’t I just here to let you know thatPlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale had gone gold?
Have you ever wondered what dev teams do after a game goes gold? If all is going well, often times they get down to business with DLC. And in fact that’s exactly what we have begun. I’m here today to announce the first DLC characters that will be joining the All-Stars roster: Kat from Gravity Rush, and Starhawk‘s Emmett Graves!
In addition to the signature weapons you’ll remember from his duels with the Outcasts on Dust, Emmett’s playstyle will also utilize Starhawk’s unique “Build-in-Battle” system, calling down help from the sky.
Kat’s approach turns gravity on its head with some mind-bending new ways to move as she positions herself for her unique brand of aerial assault. Together, they make up one of the most original duos in All-Stars.
These DLC All-Stars still have a long way to go before they’re ready to be shown off, but we wanted to let you know what the team will be working on now that we’ve gone gold with the main game, and that you can look forward to playing them… for free!
PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Emmett
Yes, you heard that right. We’re very happy to announce these first two DLC characters will be free to everyone for the first two weeks once they are available for download early next year.
That may sound a little tricky, so let me be clear: once Kat and Emmett are finished, we’ll put them up for download. They’ll be totally free for two weeks. The only limit is that you have a two-week window to claim the characters. Once you have Kat and Emmett, they are yours forever. That may sound like a lot to remember, so don’t worry, we’ll be back closer to their release to remind you of all these details.
Everyone at SuperBot, Bluepoint, and Santa Monica Studio has tried hard not only to make a great game, but also to keep the fans very firmly in mind, offering the most we can wherever we get the chance. So far we’ve offered exclusive free pre-order costumes, an amazing digital version for PS Vita at no cost when you buy the PS3 version, frame-accurate cross-play, and now Kat and Emmett coming soon for free!
We’ll have more information about these characters and more DLC news coming soon, so stay tuned here for more announcements, and thanks again to everyone that has supported us as we prepare to cross the finish line. Come join the party on November 20th as PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale launches, and I’ll see you online!
"all stars"
This game sucked when I played it at NYCC. It's not nearly as responsive or exciting to play as Melee or Brawl. The whole time people who were playing were complaining "why can't I do _____ like I can in Smash?". I have a feeling when it comes out, people who are expecting it to be Smash with Sony characters will pick it up and be VERY disappointed. The Gravity Rush chick is a cool DLC but I have no idea who the black guy is or what the game Starhawk is.
Upcoming DLC:
Bob Smith from Jet Moto
The Guy from 2Xtreme
Blasto
Jersey Devil
The Guy from Cool Boarders
So my 10 year old brother wanted it, so I bought it.
It's pretty damn mediocre so far. The gameplay is nerfed Smash Bros. while being ten times more button mashy, the characters have a lot more special moves than in Smash but I don't see anyway where it can be imployed strategically, and the hit each other and whoever hits you with the special finisher most wins is just stupid.
I really, really don't like it.
Good luck doing any of that with more than two fighters in a match.
WTF are they fighting inside the XMB or what
Sony Cuts Ties With PlayStation All-Stars Creators, Studio’s Fate In Question
Sony has cut ties with PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale creator SuperBot Entertainment, just days after the development studio laid off a number of its staff.
All of the game's future content will be handled by Sony's internal studios.
"Sony Computer Entertainment can confirm that the working agreement with developer SuperBot Entertainment has amicably ended," a Sony representative told Kotaku. "We have had a positive working relationship with this talented studio, and wish them the best of success in their next endeavor. PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale and the title's forthcoming DLC releases will continue to be fully supported by Santa Monica Studio."
SuperBot, an independent developer started in 2009, released PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale for Vita and PlayStation 3 last fall. Two weeks ago, the company laid off a significant number of staff.

800+ MB patch is up.
Kat and Starhawk guy are now up as free downloads for the next two weeks. There's also a new stage that's a fusion of Heavenly Sword and Wipeout, which they priced at $1.99...although it apparently comes up for free when you play online, so ???
I would do it now to get those characters. "Free for two weeks." :lol ::)
