wtf are you guys bitching about?

Who didn't expect this to be a SSB clone? Why wouldn't you WANT it to be a SSB clone? It's a tried and true formula. Make it identical for all I care, just let me play as Sony characters and I'm good.

Inspiring is a very funny word to use in this situation. Whether you like the fact that its a rip-off or not, saying it isn't a rip-off is delusional.

I think the use of the word rip-off while accurate in some sense, is intentionally being used here to be offensive. It borrows heavily, thats for damn sure, and as soon as footage is youtubed up and folks see it, they will agree, noone is denying that. Its just that I think you can acknowledge it without intentionally stirring shit.

Because 3D is so much better...

My issue with it really is Sonys library of characters. Outside of a few none of them fit into a SSB style game. Kratos would be ripping off peoples heads and shitting down their throats.

Guys, I'm sure there's going to be more character reveals a la Dojo. I'm sure they're just showing who they've got done.

Rip-off implies poor quality so I personally wouldn't use that term but you can if you wish. Can't really talk about the quality of it right now.

No. I would say poor-quality rip-off if I meant that. What i'm implying is that this is not an original game idea in mechanics in any real way so far.

The hate for this game already is amusing.

Yes, it's apparently a Smash Bros clone (I still haven't seen it yet).

Thing is, as a Nintendo fan, Smash Bros was like nostalgia being injected into my veins. But get this, as a PlayStation fan, I've been DYING for Sony to leverage their history of really awesome franchises and pull a Smash Bros. I'm HAPPY about this game.

It must really suck to be so far up a particular console manuracturer's ass that you can't see beyond it and respect that maybe, just maybe, PlayStation fans love and adore PS franchises in the same way that Nintendo fans love and adore Nintendo franchises, despite the PS franchises not having the same recognition as a Mario.

I grew up on Nintendo. My 80's and 90's were dominated by them. I owe them my gaming youth.

I grew into a teen and an adult on PlayStation. My late 90's to the present were dominated by them. I owe them KEEPING me gaming well beyond my teens, and now into my mid 30's.

This game is going to tickle the same nostalgia senses that Smash Bros Melee did for me. It's going to be awesome.

Don't like it, hey, guess what, you don't have to buy it or play it. Sony has plenty of developers, making plenty of other games that may suit your fancy.
