Many of us were asking for a Tekken character, you can go back to that "PS All Star discussion thread" and see that series brought up quite often. We were just unsure who it'd be since Tekken has so many character. Some thought it'd be Paul since he appeared in that 'Michael' commercial. But Tekken definitely deserved a spot. It was one of the top most popular series on the PSone, and i'd argue that the PSone era should end up dominating in terms of characters. There were more iconic franchises/characters created that generation than any other as far as PS goes.
You'll find demand, no matter how small, for practically every single character or IP that's appeared on the Playstation to appear in Battle Royale. It's just that anyone plucked from the Tekken cast is going to pale in comparison to certain iconic figures that the masses are really screaming out for, hence the mixed reaction towards Heihachi's reveal here, N4G, GameFAQS... everywhere. The longer Superbot hold off from officially announcing someone of Crash, Cloud or Snake's calibre, the worse it's going to get.
It ultimately boils down to how many third-party slots are available in total. If it's very few (and it should be - Sony ought to be focusing on their first-party here) then that doesn't bode well at all.
Edit - Awww hells naw, y'all talking about Bloody Roar? It'd never happen, but the likes of Long the Tiger or Yugo the Wolf in Battle Royale would make me cream my pants. I know it'd be a waste of a third-party slot in the big picture because Bloody Roar is too dang obscure, but still.
I don't own a Vita or a PS3 and I am getting this game just for the Parappa fanservice. (And I fucking mean that. This isn't mere DAY 1 hyperbole.)
Thank you,based godSuperbot.
So what're you gonna do, stare longingly at the case, sniff the inside of the manual and ponder at the possibility of what might be?
