edit: who is that who transforms into a bear in the Heihachi reveal video?
He's summoning Kuma, his loyal pet bear in the Tekken series.

game looks like shit, but I guess that's what you get when your inspiration is a Nintendo game
He's summoning Kuma, his loyal pet bear in the Tekken series.
Yep, it's his level two super. It kind of looks like you have some control over Kuma, but it's hard to tell.Oh cool. Is that his level two super? Does it go on auto pilot or do you have some control over what it attacks?
I still can't wait for this game. I only cared about a few characters on Nintendo's Super Smash Brothers so this looks WAAAAYYYYY better for me. I really hate how Nintendo fanboys think that Nintendo owned this type of game and nothing could ever compare.

You really think it's only the Nintendo fanboys who are calling this game a smash bros. clone?
The highlight for me is the level design. The levels are brilliant and extremely well done. The low point is the focus of the mechanics. The supers thing just doesn't seem very fun...the pacing seems off or something. It looks like the game feels 'pointless' most of the time you're playing. I don't know how to properly explain it.
The graphics seem like they'll probably look a lot better on Vita than on PS3. There's just not enough detail in them for a big screen, but when it's on a small screen and you've got that high resolution and 60FPS I bet it'll look really nice.
If I had a Vita I'd definitely buy it there instead of on PS3. Just seems like it'll fit a lot better. The game is not very fascinating to watch, but everyone who plays it seems to love it. Guess we'll see.

edit: btw can anyone explain to me the relevance of Heihachi's lvl 3 super? I dont understand what him strapping people to a rocket has to do with the Tekken franchise. Although I admit its pretty hilarious.
I don't know about most, but I have more history with PlayStation characters than I do with Nintendo characters so this game looks interesting to me.Most PS fans are shitting themselves with glee over a game like this. Nintendo doesn't have the lock down on mascot brawlers you know.
After that, I finally found an empty kiosk and snagged a controller. During the round start character introductions, I was also impressed by the character models. No, Kratos didn't look like his God of War 3 counterpart, but I thought he looked really good, with a more "cartoony" look. I liked it. He still had some detail and definition, but it felt like it meshed well with the overall aesthetic of the game (this kind of exaggerated, cartoon look). Basically, if they turned God of War into an animated series, this is how Kratos would look. The other characters from traditionally non-cartoony games looked the same.
If anyone missed this from last night: Heihachi vs. Toro, 1v1
She could have a really interesting playstyle and her supers are no-brainers. I hope she is seriously considered for DLC or a sequel if she doesn't make the cut this time.
A Gravity Rush stage would probably be crazy as well.
Detective time!
Something I noticed about the character reveals:
First batch - 2 PSX, 2 PS2, 2 PS3
E3 - 2 PS3 (1 Sony, 1 guest)
Evo - 2 PSX (1 Sony, 1 guest)
Obviously, continuing this pattern would give us
Comic-Con - 2 PS2 (1 Sony, 1 guest)
According to this leak, Jak is featured in the live action trailer, the first part of which was revealed yesterday. Assuming the rest of the footage will be included in the Comic-Con trailer, we're probably going to see Jak. This fits in with my little hypothesis, seeing as how Jak debuted on the PS2. He'd be revealed alongside a third party character from the PS2, and Grand Theft Auto and Devil May Cry are the most immediate series that spring to mind.
So, yeah, my Comic-Con guesses: Jak and either Dante or Claude/Tommy Vercetti/CJ.

Which third party characters originating from the PS2 era would be more appropriate?How about no.
Looking at guys like Drake and Radec, guns and explosives are fair game. I could definitely see a super where you jack a car and drive around, running into the opponents to KO them.GTA characters would be a little too....much.

Jak and Ratchet are first party, and Disney might not want to involve themselves with this. Aren't they picky when it comes to licensing Kingdom Hearts stuff out? We're definitely getting Snake, so Big Boss would be redundant (and it's been said that there's only going to be one playable character per franchise).Jak and Ratchet, or Sora or something.
If you want a PS2 era design for a third party, Big Boss.

I think Kat will make it in. They seem to be trying to have a game or character represented from every PS device. Toro represents the Pocket Station, since that was the device that he debuted on. The PSP is currently being represented by the Patapon stage. So they need something to represent the Vita, and Kat is really the only choice.

I saw it say that you can counter Supers, which is good, but I missed the explanation.
Can you counter with regular attacks, or just using you're own Supers?
You can counter with Supers if you watch the Toro trailer you can see an example of it where big daddy is charging at him while enraged
That would defeat the purpose I think if you counter counter with regular moves.What he's asking is if you can only counter with Supers, or will a basic move also work.
what the fuck is this bullshitgame looks like shit, but I guess that's what you get when your inspiration is a Nintendo game
That is from Parappa The Rapper. Here is the original, it has the same art style:This game looks about as charming as PS Home. What an awful visual style.
Yeah yeah I know
wouldmain
Yeah yeah I know
I love Sony games too but I had to call that out, avatar be damned
That woudl defeat the purpose I think if you counter counter with regular moves.
