There's your Link character...
 
Hey everyone, Paul here and I just wanted to say thank you for all of the support and feedback on Title Fight. I will be providing more information on the game in time, but for now, hopefully the two Q/A's that I have up, as well as the gameplay details article will suffice. And though it appears that the majority of you believe it to be real (and yes it is), the few here and there that are skeptical, know that I understand where you're coming from, but from man to man (or woman, because there's gotta be a couple here), fellow gaming enthusiast that respects the industry to another, and journalist to reader...anything that goes up on my site is the truth and comes from a qualified source.

If there's ever anything that I'm not sure of (which sometimes may come from a source of a source), I will as clear as day label it as a rumor. In the case with Title Fight, this is indeed a game in development and yes it's awesome. Good seeing your guys' thoughts and there'll be more from me to come in time. Thank you for your patience. Game on!
Do you want to sell 2 hundred million copies?

Change the name to Playstation Battle Opera.
CHANGE THE NAME TO PLAYSTATION BATTLE OPERA!!

I'm sorry but Title fight is just. Awful. Lame duck of a name.
 
But don't you get it, its characters from Titles who are fighting. The best winner is from the best "title" hence title fight. Its a double entendre, and absolutely genius

not
 
I'm pretty sure title fight is a working title.

Yeah but according to the links and teases, it's already been placed in the menus and UI assets in the game. It seems to be the title they're going with at the moment, and that's scary because a name like that is doing an awesome concept a huge injustice, especially with such a magnificent alternative RIGHT HERE. It's like if smash bros. was called Working Title.

Title Fight is a horrific name. I don't like Playstation Battle Opera either, it's too long in the mouth. Sony Battle Opera is way better.

I've completely changed my mind about 3rd party characters. I think a first outing should really only use SCE properties only. It's a bad look if a game designed to celebrate your brand is filled with characters found on the competition's hardware.
 
The absurdity and the fun factor was what kept that series going strong after any nostalgia wore off.

Sony can do the same thing here

Im all for quirky humor and fun but it has to be logical. Bringing real life characters doesnt make sense.

I'll shit rage if most characters will use guns in some way too. There needs to be variety in skills and abilities to make the fun lasting.

Ive been thinking wouldnt it be kinda awesome if Radec could summon one of those Airships, warships or blimps seen in the end of KZ2 as a level 3 super.

Gotta admit I'd love to see that too if they could make it work.

The leak mentions Smash a lot, which makes it seem 2D. I don't think it has said outright though.

I think it would be cool if it was like Fat Princess. 3D but third person fixed POV. That would differentiate it enough, while allowing for some awesome themed maps from various games.

Yeah, it does say that X is jump which would lend itself to some 3D element. That and the colored rings/circles to designate players.
 
I hope for some forgotten PS1 characters but I am sure it wont happen.

Would love to see characters from

Legend of Dragoon - Would translate great in a fighting game with transformations

Crime Crackers - Funny diverse cast

Vib Ribbon

Jumping Flash

Alundra

Arc the Lad

Wild Arms

Siren - Playable Shibito


I think we will have a better chance of seeing 3rd party characters like Cloud and Snake over any of the ones mentioned.

It would just work soo well. And nearly every franchise they have takes place on a 3D field. Actually, I'm having trouble even thinking of one that is exclusively 2D only! Please I hope they had the guts to make it a Power Stone-esque game.
 
Guys your expectatives are way too high. In the source it says that the game will have 20(+/-) characters. And already were "confirmed":

- Kratos
- Drake
- Parappa
- Sweet Tooth
- Radec
- Sly
- Fat-Princess
- Scorpion (at least that's what Boon said)
12 more to go.

- Ratchet & Clank
- Jak & Daxter
- Cole McGrath

And you have 9 left.

I don't know/remember most of Sony franchises. But at least 4 or 5 of those 9 left, are going to be third party.

Sounds like a real sausage fest. I'm hoping Ellen from Folklore makes it in as a left-field choice.
