The part I enjoy is that if this were a separate game with original characters and not first party, absolutely no one would be up in arms about this comment.
Saying Battle Royale is a rip-off would be as intellectually honest as looking at P-100 For 10 seconds and saying it was a Pikmin ripoff without looking at the mechanics of the game an how it works.
Well I did like the game before I realized it's just a soulless product placement title to appease 3rd party developers like Capcom.
Superbot can fuck right off I completely agree with Kamiya. Shit awful rip off that doesn't understand the meaning of celebrating PlayStation's history. Hopefully next gen the idiots will get it right
He didn't call it a bad game, though. It can be a rip-off while being a ton of fun at the same time. Kamiya simply isn't interested in the game because it's a rip-off, though.
This is true, but honestly that has just made me think they made an even worse version of Smash Bros. I hate the system conceptually, but maybe it works better in practice.

I guess I expected more out of GAF but I guess fanboys will be everywhere. Play the game first, then judge it. The point here is that he hasn't even played the game and is already speaking this way. I don't think there are a lot of original ideas anymore so this doesn't bother me.
The concept of play first is silly. By that account, no should comment on an entertainment medium without first stepping through it.
There is enough information on the made for someone to form an opinion. If was talking something detailed like controls without playing it, you have a better point.
Seems pretty clear to me he's speaking conceptually. On that, there is plenty of opinion for one to form an opinion.
the entire gaming industry is built on ripping off ideas...look at first person shooters, they "borrow" so much from one and other. Same goes for the GTA clones, the Uncharted and Gears of War clones...not a big deal at all.
Can't say I disagree. Which would be fine if the entire affair weren't so slapdash. It's an aesthetic mess, and even the move sets often have little to do with the history of the characters. It all feels extremely lazy to me, and I cannot understand the excitement people have for it in that beta thread.
