Ok Battle Royal is copying/taking inspiration/ripping off/ what ever you want to call it Smash Bros. Done it's true

Supperbot and Sony are not fucking throwing away their fucking morals by making such a game and unless Supperbot stole assets from SB Nintendo can not fucking sue.

The game has the right to fucking exist and if you don't like that too bad

If the game does not appeal to you for what ever reason fine you dont have to fucking buy it. And if the game does appeal to you I suggest just enjoying the game.

/thread

I swear if this is repeated in the OT of the game when it comes out. I suggest someone make another thread for all this arguing because frankly I really dont what that shit in the OT of the game where we can be actually talking about the game, its mechanics, strengths, weaknesses, ect.

Calm the hell down. Throwing a damn tantrum isn't going to make this thread any more sane.
Seriously get over it.

Bah I don't have time for this.
Metroid Prime is not a spin on the FPS genre, as it is FPS as a genre doesn't even exists it's a perspective, no one can even say he invented it per se.
Changing the perspective doesn't change the genre and I'm getting late I'm out.

Inventing a game where you may sing doesn't mean you invented singing, nor does inventing a FPS game mean you invented a view. It's most certainly a genre, and it's even labelled as one.

There's no dignity in Sony Smash Bros. the people making it must wake up, look in the mirror and ask themselves how it came to this. They're on level pegging with Gameloft at this point. It must be eating them alive to know how cancerous this game will be to their reputations. Hell, if I were them I'd leave it off any CV and use a psudanym in the game credits.

People will get over the existence of Playstation All Stars as time goes on. Enjoy the game if you're in beta, and don't worry about what others think. Let's all just hope the online turns out as good as it can be. That's the major important factor here!

People don't seem to get the bigger idea, the bigger picture here don't they ? why would that irritate you if you are a SSB fan from all the people you should be thankful for them to sink to the point of copying level to make you play something similar to your favorite franchise until SSB4 hit the shelves. Does it matter if it was a rip off ? I gave an analogy back in the thread about the "birthday cake" but no matter how you see it the cake will taste good no matter how it was made or who made it if they follow the recipe. SuperBot admitted that they borrowed most of the elements from Smash (not directly) it's proven whenever they were asked about it they bring up the "Super System", Still that doesn't make the game bad. No matter how much you whine and call the game a Ripoff Sony won't stop making the game for the sake of your whines. Live with it the game is coming no matter what you say and I bet it will sell like hot cakes.

I hope you have the same attitude when Gameloft and Zynga rip off other companies.

You are right. It did not. I think Bayonetta is garbage.

I would like Vanquish 2 though. But I guess it is just a gears ripoff by his definition. Wonder what he thinks about Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble. Would he consider it a smash ripoff or conveniently not comment about it I wonder?

To add on it it's always good to have competition for Sakurai, it will make him make SSB. better.

By your reasoning, SNK's entire catalogue of 2D fighters are nothing but Street Fighter ripoffs, SNK's another Zynga, and the guys who worked on KoF and Garou should hide their faces in shame.

You really want to stand by that?

Kamiya, deliver us from the era of community managers and publisher gag orders, back to the good old days of shit-talking devs. I believe.

How could anyone take that site serious when this line is at the bottom of the site "SDF Sony Defense Force: Reporting award winning, unbiased video game news since 2006" and then read their reviews

Do you say that with every shooter that came out after Wolfenstein 3D?

Eh. The game is obviously a rip-off, anyone denying it is pretty goddamn delusional. But ripping off is not necessarily a bad thing, sometimes things improve when someone else gives them a shot and mixes things up a bit. But even if Sony doesn't want to mix things up and just play it true to the formula, as long as they can can deliver a good clone, it's fine IMO. Though in that case I can understand dissing them a little, but there's no need to go overboard.

Also, the name of this game is way too fucking long. WTF Sony.

EDIT: I love people who say it's "inspired" by SSB. That's some serious downplay when you consider how unique SSB is.

You do know that :
1) we're talking about a product made to make money for the company producing it, so it's a success for Sony if and only if it make them money and that how and why they choose to fund it.
2) the most likely process they used to make was "hey look at how much money Nintendo made with Smash let's do our own", which is exactly the same process used by plenty of company to get their own mini game collections some years ago.

Let's call a spade a spade, it's not at all an original game and not even Sony consider it so, so I don't even know why we should think any differently.
And really appart from the cheerleaders I don't think anyone even cares about it at all.
No one gave a shit when Modnation racers and that Sonic racing game came after all.

I think you missed the point behind what I was getting at. I wasn't calling it an original game; I was admitting to the fact that it wasn't an original game. However, I was also stating that its "originality" is irrelevant to its quality as a game.

Battle Royale is an unoriginal game, but it could also potentially be a great game, if it improves upon Smash Bros.' formula.

It's a rip off and you know better Sony fan boys, it's not even a good rip off from what I saw there's a barely any strategy involved in this game,they ripped off the worst side of Smash the thing that plagued brawl competitiveness (atleast you can disable it on brawl) and made it into the main mechanic of the game, I'm talking about the "Supers" and they didn't rip off the good part, they didn't copy the knock out, in a way they wanted to make it unique, but what they did is just like taking the cover of SSBB and scratching off (Super Smash Bros. Brawl) and put (PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale) on top of it with crayons and tape Kratos picture with a bunch Play station characters. Only fan boys will deny the fact that it's a rip off, but even if it was. Why is it a bad Rip off? Why did they add a stupid system that ruins the fun of the game ? Did they think by putting such stupid system will magically make their game original ? atleast if you want to copy a game do it right, because most of the people aren't blind from the truth that PSABR is a SSB. clone, so changing the game's system is like buying a cake for your kid's birth day from the bakery and add some cream on top of it and say to your kid "Mommy made this cake for you" but we all know that you bought that cake from the bakery, and the kid knows that but he didn't want to make his mom look like a liar.

I got grudge sucked!
Playstation all stars may have a limited roster compared to SSB, but I think the characters are more diverse, and will be much more fun to play.


You know what they say, quality over quantity
