Ah, I see, with story in mind, Kat vs. Emmet Graves might have something interesting.

Anyways, Robbit please.

Chalk this up as another vote for Robbit. Game needs more classic PS1 representatives, it needs more Japanese creations, it needs more slow-but-powerful characters and it needs someone who isn't anthropomorphic. Plus any game out there can benefit from a giant mechanical rabbit who leaps to sky-high heights and shoots out fireworks and cherry bombs.

Emmett? The amount of options there are and they choose this worthless character. Continuing to fail.

Uh...Emmet is from Starhawk, which is a TPS game with tower defense elements. He can literally summon buildings and units which fall from the sky like drop pods, calling out turrets, and transforming mechs...how is he NOT cool?

Are most people speaking out of ignorance? He's got so much moveset potential, it's insane.

This Starhawk guy is the biggest waste of a character in anything ever. I'd rather have clones.

Why? No I'm seriously asking, why? As a character Graves is great. He is unique and has the potential for a very different set of moves than the rest of the group.

So why?

I'm tired of seeing the Emmet/starhawk hate.

I wasn't a fan of the singleplayer campaign but I am still a active player in MP and am glad this dude is coming in. There are multiple ways to kill in starhawk and to see that implemented in Allstars will be quite interesting.

I too expect pod kill to be a super, but I hope they use the hawk over the mech transformation. Because I don't like Sweet tooth's sweetbot, they should have chosen his ice cream truck over the bot.

Probably because from the LOOKS of it, he's just another guy with a gun (like for example Nathan Hale from resistance) but since he IS in the game, I'm pretty sure he'll have a good number of moves. Superbot is NOT stupid after all.

Anyone who even thinks Sora could be in this game should slap themselves. Disney didn't even allow him on Dissidia.

Agreed. The crying for Sora is kind of annoying.

Anyways congrats to the Kat fans! Never played her game but I'm fond of her character design and I'm glad she made it. As for the other dude..not really interested to be honest, haha.

Yeah, but guys with guns are a large subset of Sony's characters...so it's not really shocking to see another. He should be a ton of fun to play.

Emmett will most likely be the most unique out of all the gun users I think.

Well Drake has some crazy supers as well though.

I don't even get why people want Sora, he probably has some decent moveset potential, but there are many better choices out there.

Your avatar for example. Someone from Persona would be great for jrpg fans. Cloud or even Lightning would be good.


Why is Ezio not in this? He was in the Micheal commercial. Thought he would squeeze in. Looks like for now, this is all there is.

I'm more curious about how his story is going to work. His rival will probably be kat, and I think thats even stranger than fat princess vs evil cole. How will that work?


Also, I just realized that Superbot will probably be releasing DLC in pairs due to rivalries. Should be interesting.

Well in the psblog description they said he utilizes the build and battle system from starhawk. So he is definitely gonna be unique from the rest.

If being lesser known is the reason people don't like his inclusion, I believe it should be the exact opposite. Games like these should help people discover new favorite characters. I'm for one am excited for both kat and Graves.

So then Sora would be great for the kids?

Sounds good, also even though I just started the game, Old Dad from Nier would be AMAZING.

According to the blog, Both Kat and Emmet's gameplay styles revolve around air/the skies, so there's that.

It's not like the game is full of ''guys with guns'' characters unless you also include Ratchet, Jak. For Dante and Sweet Tooth guns only play the part of sidearms.

Only ''real'' gunheavy dudebros are Radec and Drake. One of witch uses sci-fi plasma gadget stuff and has very distinct design and one who kicks barrels at people and uses falling debris as a weapon.

They should put in MC from Persona 3.

I could imagine it starting off with him being stuck in the seal and he ends up in PSASBR. It sounds stupid, but he could return to his real life if he wins the tournament, and make a comeback in persona 5.

LOL

I am kind of disappointed that their most iconic franchise GT does not get a stage or any kind of mention in this game. They really should have a stage centered around GT. Great news on the free DLC though!

What are they going to do? Party Game on a Race Track? :/ Have cars come in and out of the stage like Super Party Game Brothers?

I'd rather this game not tie into Persona 5, besides I feel Persona 4 would be the choice for a PSASBR rep due to it being the favorite persona game of Atlus.

All the characters are shrunk and are fighting above the dashboard of a car as it's in the midst of a race. The car swerves every now and then, and you can see the track/other racers/weather changes through the windshield, side windows and side mirrors. It's doable, just takes some imagination. *rainbow*
