I suggested that too. One of his alts should be hip hop clothes, then he and Parappa could be a team.
Toro is obviously their enemy.

Finally got around to playing Jumping Flash! today and then replayed it right after 
I remember the demo when I was a kid and I didn't even understand that the game was in first person, I think it was the first first-person game I had seen.
Anyway, would love to see Robbit as a playable character.

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
Spike/Specter and Robbit are my most wanted PS1 picks at the moment.Finally got around to playing Jumping Flash! today and then replayed it right after

I'm confident Ape Escape will be represented in Allstars, but Jumping Flash! getting its due would be a real treat.

I recently played the game too just to brush up on playstation history. Robbit would end up being yet another ranged character and this game has too many ranged characters already, but I think he'd be one of the better ps1 historic choices.
Even better would be a stage. That world is a really crazy one that I would like to see again. A stage would honestly represent Jumping Flash better than Robbit would. And it would come with some real kickass music. I think anyone that was around for earily 3D stuff could appreciate and have nostalgia for levels that look like this:
Its really my most wanted stage alongside Fantavision and Echochrome (though echochrome is sadly 3rd party.)

They're exactly the same! It's just Cole's character model is more refined in i2 instead of looking like an unfinished generic character in the first game.

Im pretty sad what they did to Ape Escape.
The original was a classic, definetly need the a series return to form.

1 per character for preorders and 1 unlockable making 2 for every character (although im not certain if preorder is for every character or just every character so far announced).
I think the preorder costumes are only for the characters revealed up through Toro and Heihachi. The new trailer they released for SDCC had the preorder costumes at the end, and they weren't updated with Jak or Cole.
They also didn't specify that characters would have only 1 unlockable costume.

SOTC should have been in the Hades stage. Imagine a Hades versus Colossus battle happening in the background? Epic!

Jumping Flash! desperately needs a franchise reboot.
Imagine if a talented developer were able to combine all the modern-day FPS genre improvements, with the old school charm and platforming of the original games... then cranked everything up to 11 (in HD).
My nostalgic brain can barely handle the thought.

I'm guessing Robbit's moveset would also involve a lot of hopping and stomping. His specials could be his assortment of secondary weapons, like bombs and roman candle(giant laser).

So around 15 July we'll see 3 or 4 characters? That should at least be 1 third party character then.
Yep, on August though, but I'm sure that's a typo.
Next month's the 25th anniversary event for MGS (on the 30th) so:
Let's go!
Uhhhhh... Today is July 17th. Atleast on east coast us.

Not sure, but i'm just as surprised that there isn't a PS1 classic release.
Is it because of the PSP version that came out.
THere was like a updated port on that right?

Oh shit, yeah August haha. Just woke up. :x But yeah, ready for Snake, if he makes it in then that's the fourth person who has a sit-back-and-shoot-everyone-on-the-screen level 3 super.
Maybe. I could see some CQC being involved in his moveset.

Yeah there is something thats really fun about first person platforming, as long as you are the type of person that can just feel where your virtual feet are. I'd like to see more of it.
For Robbits moveset, I just assumed his secondary weapons would be his moveset, since there's not really a ton of ways you can turn hop and stomp into a move. I guess they could turn him into an average close range fighter with a bunch of silly looking kicks or headbutts or whatever while giving him an easy to close in jump and stomp move set.
Basically make him an anti range character and maybe put a couple of average to below average secondary ranged weapons to help with the completely close up fighters like Heihachi.

The wooden mannequin from Echochrome would be an excellent character in my opinion. I love his design and uniqueness. He could make a very interesting fighter if done right.
Although Im sure echochrome is 1st party?
Sounds like they were being sarcastic. Hopefully. The possibility for that is realistically below 0%.

God damn it im wrong a lot lately. Sorry about that, it does look like echochrome is first party. I don't know what I was thinking. At least I have you guys here to set me right.
Echochrome stage has to happen then! How could it not?
You should check Ape Escape out. It's almost like an awesome tech demo of cool stuff to do with dual analog sticks wrapped up in a great platformer.

Omar was really great to speak to and passionate at E3 about PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and I really respect what him and the rest of the team have done on this game. I definitely wish them the best of success. (By the way, the picture I put up was suppose to be in this post, but ended up in my second one).

omar looks pissed or is it just me?
His face says to me "STOP LEAKING EVERYTHING RAWRRRR"
That comment about thirdpatry seemed to.imply that activision doesn't want or care for Crash and Spyro in PBR, but I have faith. But it.sounds like we'll get Kat and Sir Dan in the game as DLC if we keep bitching about them.

"Yeah I'm going to be that guy that isn't even following the game, won't buy it and will only play it a couple times with friends yet will rage out if 1 character he feels should be in by divine right doesn't get it"
edit : Just read back a few pages
WHAT THE F**k I WASN'T EVEN GOING TO BUY THE GAME, I DON'T EVEN HAVE A PS3 AND I'M SO ANGRY. CRASH IS LIKE THE SONY MASCOT and erm MY CHILDHOOD blah blah.
What about that Croc guy.

If crash is in the game he is likely the last reveal. The last reveal signifies the end of all hope for any characters you might want to see. Its important to have a great reveal to disguise the characters that aren't in this. Also if they want people to keep paying attention to the reveals, you don't want to sedate the people by showing them the only thing they want.

All this talk of Ape Escape and Jumping Flash! is making me seriously nostalgic.
Are you and Omar on good terms? 'Cos he looks vexed to no end there.

The fellow gamer, friend, and fellow forum user that's passionate about this industry wants to share my good news with everyone and make the world happy! But the man that's respectful of a team's wishes to keep things more cool than I have in the past is very strong and that's why I have to duct tape my hands together once in a while...to avoid spoiling too much.
It's all a balance. It doesn't have to be, because I CAN say more and have no legal consequence, but it certainly wouldn't fit my ideals very well...
You can imagine this if you want, for fun. When I go for a drive, I sometimes talk out loud, the whole roster that I know of, discuss the details of Microsoft's next big game (a whole other story on how I landed that one which wow...I didn't even mention yet officially on my site), and envision the chaos that would strike the internet if the last details that I had on PlayStation-All Stars Battle Royale were just released at once: MEGATON!
If I had a Groundhog Day (as in the movie), I'd probably put it all up at once just to see what'd happen and know that the next day it'd all be cool, because there'd be no harm done to anyone.

Yeah, all is well.
In fact, we took three pics and in the other two, he's the one smiling but the camera took me off guard, lol. I put this one up because it was the best "picture" overall...even if he happened to have a neutral face in it.And to corporate cheerleader: that made me laugh pretty good, thanks.

I wonder how hard Sony will advertise this game. They NEED a demo for it. Demos are such an easy way to sell a game. Have Plus members get a free 1 hour trial. Think we'll see bundles with the new PS3 slim?
If Sony releases a $150-$200 PS3 with PS:A bundled in, or if they do the PS3/VITA bundle this game could get some decent mileage.
I really do want to see a cool million and a half for it, but sadly, so many PS3 games I fear will suffer: Ni No Kuni, Sly 4, LBP Karting. I seriously worry if we will continue seeing games like this when I think of sales. Just look at what happened to poor SOCOM.

But Socom much like Shadows of the Damned, just kind of came out.
Hardly any advertising or hype build up at all, and that alone can really affect a game sales wise.
All things consider everyone seems to be in agreement that this'll be the main game that we see Sony advertising a lot of. Also I'd say a demo has a high chance, since like you said it's the best way to sell it.

I pray we don't see a stupid KB commercial-- make a standalone commercial with 20 seconds of pure PS:A, explaining the mechanics, and citing (hopefully) high review scores from IGN and GameTrailers, with even advertising competitive players like Clockwork into the ad to really sell the game home.
I am also beginning to think Crash and Spyro wont make it into the game, and I am willing to bet the reason is so that Activision can sell them as DLC to make a cut.
Thought it be cool so I made this:
Yeah, I know the helghast soldier isn't Radec. This and a KZ3 costume is all Mm had.
Potential costumes for potential characters:
Lvl 3 super has Sackboy transforming everyone to their sackboy equivalent. Everybody is stuck in floaty jump physics. Sackboy then brings out his popit menu and initiates the "self destruct" option for 3 easy kills. lol

I like that sackboy idea but would rather have sackboy having to put stickers on your enemies to kill them
