In the GT video they do say that all of the Level 3's (except Parappa's) take an element of skill to wipeout all characters on screen. The guy that won the tournament with Parappa said that he actually won by doing two Level 2's and a Level 1 while everyone else was just trying to build to Level 3.
http://www.destructoid.com/preview-playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-226561.phtmlI played with each of the reveal characters a few times to check out their move sets and supers. Each of the six are quite different from one another, with varied play styles that Smash Bros fans will probably feel right at home with. That said, Smash players should not expect an All-Stars character parallel. While this game looks similar, it feels much different.
I'm looking at this as the birth of a new genre. Nobody calls FPS games clones of each other right? Doom just got the ball rolling ...
That looks terrible.
So it's almost a blatant clone of Smash even gameplay-wise? Yuck...!
Shameless and dull.
Just for your info: There are already two threads for guys like you.I think it's been obvious that it's been coming for a while, but... this is fucking pathetic.
Parappa is going to piss a lot of people off. He seems like a massive troll character. He's able to drop his boombox which will release AP orbs to pick up. Other players can pick that up but if they get caught in the beats from the boombox it'll cause them to freeze. His Level 3 super is also the only one that is an instant kill on every character on screen no matter what.
The guys in the GT video said that the tournament that the final round of the tournament that took place there featured 3 Parappa's and 1 Kratos.
All the info sounds fantastic but this really stands out to me.
Thank fucking god yes!
I don't recognize a single one of those characters.

- The team consists of members with extensive backgrounds in fighting and combat titles
- Either the left analog stick or the d-pad controls movement of your character.
- The right stick will let you perform throws, with different ones assigned to each direction.
- The X button jumps, and the other three face buttons are assigned to different attacks.
- L1 blocks and R1 picks up items.
- R2, executes a super move. While fighting, you'll build up a meter that lets you perform a super move that knocks out characters.
- Also, some attacks knock AP (action points) out of opponents, letting others pick them up to fill up these meters. There are three levels of supers, each one stronger than the last, and each requiring another filling of this meter. If you can manage to land hits and survive long enough, a level three super can knock out all other players, earning you points.
- Victory goes to the player with the highest number of KOs; knocking out a character adds to your score while being knocked out subtracts from it.
- So, there's nothing in the way of health bars here, as health doesn't really matter in the long run.
- Most of the matches I played were frantic free-for-alls that had us hitting each other in any way possible in an effort to get those meters filled up.
- get excited about the control, because it's outstanding. SuperBot really nailed it. It's fast, super-responsive, and never gets in the way of the crazy action. The in-air stuff is not floaty at all; jumps do what you need them to, when you need them to. I never had a problem blocking, platforming or recovering.
nvm, probably lock, and I'll post this in the discussion thread
Finally a version of Smash Bros i actually want to play.
Oh, come on.I don't recognize a single one of those characters.

I was waiting for this

Ugh, can someone just direct me to towards the one best video for explaining the game's mechanics? am tired, don't want to watch all this crap!
OK I have enough of this. Could someone made a garbage thread to keep all the bs inside?

I'm sure this game will be pretty cool and all, but holy shit its such a blatant carbon copy of Smash. Even in terms of the character movement and how the camera zooms out and stuff. It really looks like Smash in HD with different characters.
I bet playing as Kratos will be great though.
He said video, and he even put it in bold to make sure people give him a video
Or having the ability to be called kiddie on the internet because of online play.Playstation - for people that want to play Nintendo games, but are afraid of being called kiddie on the internet.

Eww. I have little respect for such shameless ripoffs. SMH at people preaching is nothing like smash. Really? The physics and feel of the game look EXACTLY like it.
Try watching the impression videos first, maybe.
Why did they have to pull the NDA at this freaking hour? Need to sleep.
Nope, all previews say the controls are fantastic.Am I the only one worried about how bad the PS3 controller is for this game?
so... when did Fat Princess become a Playstation iconic character?
What I want to see is the game in action with commentary about what's going on. Does this even exist?
Once someone configures the Wavebird to this it'll be awesome.Am I the only one worried about how bad the PS3 controller is for this game?
