3rd party only makes up less than a a fourth of the roster though. I mean I think Superbot is doing a pretty good job filling in the remaining 17 slots with Sony' first party characters

Five guest characters seem like a lot to me, and there is probably more coming judging by the rumors.

And it seems like they aren't really that concerned with choosing guest characters that really represent Sony. Just characters that are pretty popular/mainstream.

But I'm not really a fan of guest characters to begin with, so I might have a skewed view of things. I just feel like this is becoming a bit of a cash in.

Thank you for this thread.

You are welcome my friend . PSASBR threads are allways a delight .

 

[CadetMahoney]

hahah.

[Hyuga]

I have no idea who any of those characters are. Makes sense they chose Kat over them

.....

 

[Ezalc]

Every Ninja Gaiden game has been on a Playstation platform.

Not the NES ones no.

What's wrong with what he said?

 

[Carl]

Yay for Kat.

 

[Murrah]

Hard to tell at this point who's still joking and who's turned serious about this Jen Tate thing

 

[Combichristoffersen]

What's wrong with what he said?

Not knowing who Kat is is fine, but not knowing who Ryu Hayabusa is? Really now.

Not the NES ones no.

The arcade game and the NG games by Sega aren't officially available on any PS platform either.

Outside of Ryu and Big Daddy, I feel that all the other 3rd party characters have a good history with Playstation despite the game sporting the newest incarnation of those characters (Always room for alt costumes :lol)

Though I suppose its the fact that I think SuperBot nailed it with 1st party characters(Outside the fact there is no Wander so far) that I'm willing to be a little lenient on including characters like Ryu/Big Daddy.

He didn't know who Jen Tate, Rynn, and Ellen were. Tbh I don't know who Rynn or Ellen are either

 

[The Grim Heaper]

We just need her maid outfit if she's in and I'm set.

EDIT: oh shit or the spy outfit

 

[btkadams]

i had to google him. i know of the ninja gaiden series, but i've never played them.

 

[SmithnCo]

How about a bath towel outfit? HMMM?

But yeah I hope the military one is in, best one.

 

[Shahed]

They were saying they didn't know who Jen Tate, Rynn and Ellen are, not Ryu. Can't say I blame them.

I only really knew who Ellen was until very recently, and not many people played Folklore.

Ah, I misunderstood then. I have no idea who Rynn and Ellen are, but Jen Tate was in Primal, wasn't she?

As for Folklore, after playing the demo I have no problem understanding why not a lot of people played it

I didn't think he was speaking about Ryu.

I hope you weren't referring to me.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

I hope you weren't referring to me.

I was, I just misread your discussion :lol

if that got in I'd be dead

They're all great! Maido, spy kitty, school girl...

oh god

Ryu's an awful character. Capcom ruining another franchise.

 

[Takao]

If Ryu is announced at TGS there's probably going to either be a new Ninja Gaiden on Sony hardware, or exclusive stuff in DOA5.

 

[KevinCow]

If it's true:

Kratos vs. Dante vs. Ryu

Come on. You know that's pretty cool.

"But it's not the right Dante, and Ryu isn't a Playstation mascot, and God of War is stupid!"

Shut up.

Kratos vs. Dante vs. Ryu

 

[Drago]

Capcom? This isn't even a Konami joke ...

Shut up.

Kratos vs. Dante vs. Ryu

Well, it isn't the right Dante, is it

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

Why does every character have to be a Sony 'mascot'?

Playstation All-Stars just means nifty characters that have appeared on Playstation platforms.

Ryu and Kat are great choices.

 

[Oni Link 666]

They're just letting anyone in. Next week it's going to be John Madden and the Medal of Honor dude with the the beard.

 

[Riposte]

WTF at thus game with all the non-PS icon

Ryu H ??? cmon

I'm trying to find a reason to care whether or not mascot is a "PS mascot". I don't get it.

 

[Hot Coldman]

They're just letting anyone in. Next week it's going to be John Madden and the Medal of Honor dude with the the beard.

That'd be great and you know it

 

[Napalm_Frank]

I'd buy it!

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Where is Blasto?

 

[Oni Link 666]

That'd be great and you know it

Madden would scream BOOM and spray your down with Tinactin for his super.

 

[Canis lupus]

Okay, I get to fight with Ryu in DOA5 and PSASBR now.

 

[SmithnCo]

They're just letting anyone in. Next week it's going to be John Madden and the Medal of Honor dude with the the beard.

Oh fuck I'd main John Madden all day every day

Of course he'd have a turducken attack.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Where is Blasto?

You want Blasto without Phil Hartman? Because balls to that.

Oh fuck I'd main John Madden all day every day

Of course he'd have a turducken attack.

:lol

 

[Noi]

And it'll be yet another version of Ryu that plays better than his NG3 incarnation.

Kat. <3

Fuck that, I want the newsstand and the shipping crate from Need for Speed II (for those that haven't played NFS II: via cheats you could race as a newsstand, a shipping crate and a T-Rex statue)

 

[StalkerUKCG]

I'm Still pissed that this game chose to copy SSBM than become a more traditional fight.

Id be 20x more interested if it was similar to say Mortal Kombat in terms of gameplay.

 

[sleepykyo]

Third party marginal stars

Perfect.

 

[jooey]

Will Kat be as whitewashed as she is in Hot Shots?

 

[DR2K]

Oh god I hate DLC characters they better be on the disc and available day 1. Althought they still haven't convinced me it'll be anything but a party game.

 

[J-Tier]

Nope, I wanted a Sony "Smash Bros". I've had enough traditional fighters.

 

[Dead Prince]

Don't worry. we got a former capcom on the team to make excuses.

Indeed.

 

[The Faceless Master]

This close to DOA 5? Naaaaaah.

that's a good reason to agree. cross promotion.

 

[Takao]

ps1/vita ar tech demo t-rex plzzzz superbot

 

[GayForMaster]

TL;DR: Ryu and Kat could be in the game as DLC or on-disc.

Could be on-disc AS DLC as well.

 

[kuroshiki]

The more characters, the better it is. I don't understand the complain about 'bububu 3rd party'.

Now the problem is whether or not those characters are good roster or not. Kat is a sound choice. (maid costume better be there)

Now one more female character reveal and I'm set.
