there's just something about it man, it just doesn't look right. everything feels out of place. maybe i've just been playing too much smash bros.

 

[dreamfall]

I think it has to be retail. MORE FAT PRINCESS! That episode went up lightning fast!

 

[ULTROS!]

ahahaha

Will you buy it if it has Noctis or Cloud?

 

[RobotHaus]

The art style is strange to look at. Parappa and Fat Princess look really off.

This is an obvious SSB rip off, but then again CTR was a copy of MK, and that did well, but at the same time I don't see this being a great game. Good, probably, and it will sell, but I don't see this as something to crush the competition or move systems.

 

[angelfly]

Game looks good but I probably won't be picking it up. I just don't have the same attachment to Sony characters to make something like this fun.

 

[Kyou]

I assume Gameloft is making this?

 

[Pranay]

I'm hoping for a rich cast of lovable, iconic Sony characters.

Work once, doesnt work twice =)

you had said the same thing last time

 

[GameE]

Ok, good that Gt's video quality wasnt just messed up for me.

 

[jokkir]

I'm hoping for a rich cast of lovable, iconic Sony characters.

lmao

 

[Kagari]

Will you buy it if it has Noctis or Cloud?

And why do you think that will happen?

 

[KillGore]

This looks amazing!

 

[SteeloDMZ]

It looks merely decent to me. Outside a couple, PS characters aren't nearly as interesting as those in Smash. The fact that the gameplay seems to be a carbon copy without much new doesn't help either.

Still, if it turns out to be good, I'll check it out.

 

[Fantastical]

there's just something about it man, it just doesn't look right. everything feels out of place. maybe i've just been playing too much smash bros.

I agree. I was genuinely not impressed by this. It just doesn't look right for some reason. I'm eager to see more at E3 though and learn more about the game. I'm hoping there is a cool single player campaign kind of like Subspace Emissary.

 

[Poyunch]

The only thing that bothers me about making a Smash-like game is the inevitable All-Stars vs Smash Bros. arguments that are bound to happen. It's going to be terrible.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

And why do you think that will happen?

I could see Cloud being in it. And by Cloud I mean Lightning.

 

[newjeruse]

Sony can just recycle that add from a few months back with a new back end for this games commercial.

 

[EatChildren]

Work once, doesnt work twice =)

But it's funny because it's true.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

[KidGalactus]

So basically you mean these guys:

9/10

I agree this is kind of shameless, but maybe it will be cool, right? Who's making it?

 

[Rahxephon91]

Well that looked terrible.

 

[dreamfall]

I really wonder who the final boss will be...

 

[civilstrife]

Completely shameless rip-off on the level of Gameloft.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Looks like it could be fun , have to see more of it .

 

[Thoraxes]

I'm hoping for a rich cast of lovable, iconic Sony characters.

hahaha

 

[Sn4ke_911]

HELL YES! This looks fun.

 

[ULTROS!]

And why do you think that will happen?

They confirmed 3rd party characters but who knows, Cloud was an iconic PlayStation character.

Noctis was just for lolz.

 

[Einbroch]

Er...no thank you. Don't care about the Playstation characters except maybe Parappa and Kratos.

Looks kinda flat and lifeless.

 

[GamerSoul]

Heh, well damn they really did it.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Completely shameless rip-off on the level of Gameloft.

gameloft is a premier iOS developer

 

[jokkir]

I really wonder who the final boss will be...

Master Feet

 

[mutsu]

I assume Gameloft is making this?

I came here to post this.

No shame rip-off!

 

[RagnarokX]

This looks... much worse than I expected. What's with the horrible glowing auras around characters? It looks kinda dull and lifeless.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

The last segment went SD. For shame.

 

[Thoraxes]

Possible Third party Characters:
Snake
Ezio
Big Daddy
Dante
Issac Clarke
Batman
Commander Shepard
Some enemy Dark Souls
Prince from Prince of Persia 2008
Adam Jensen

Possible third-party characters: Any 3rd party character ever on a Sony system before.

 

[Kunan]

Floating gun from Call of Duty

lmao

 

[Seven Force]

Looks fun, I guess. I think I'm enjoying the (over)reactions more than I am the footage, though.

 

[Aru]

It looks more like Battle Stadium D.O.N than Smash Bros:
- Life bars
- No throw away your opponents gameplay

Or maybe more like Onimusha Blade Warriors.

 

[Nibel]

Absolutely embarassing

Give me TLG instead, Kaz!

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

They confirmed 3rd party characters but who knows, Cloud was an iconic PlayStation character.

Noctis was just for lolz.

Cloud would be great! But it's probably going to be Lightning.

 

[Yuripaw]

I think it's kinda weird how blatant of a rip off of Super Smash Bros it actually is. I knew this was being talked about for a while, but wow...I didn't expect it to be EXACTLY like smash bros.

 

[Emitan]

I hope they make the characters look different. Kratos and Sweet Tooth sort of look the same. Hard to tell them apart when things are hectic.

 

[Kagari]

They confirmed 3rd party characters but who knows, Cloud was an iconic PlayStation character.

Noctis was just for lolz.

Yeah but SE is too fickle these days.

 

[blizzardjesus]

I'm not really sure who 1/2 of these characters are... but I am amused that the game is so dark they have to put a white silhouette outline around everyone.

 

[ilMikhail]

Your turn Sakurai

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

I think it's kinda weird how blatant of a rip off of Super Smash Bros it actually is. I knew this was being talked about for a while, but wow...I didn't expect it to be EXACTLY like smash bros.

it's not EXACTLY like smash bros. It has better graphics and a functional online system.

JEEZ.

 

[BlackIronCount]

looks good
but the roster is not that exciting and a bit boring for me
outside of parappa and patapon not enough love for sony jrpg character and scej title in general

 

[cnizzle06]

Take note Nintendo. That's how you make a Super Smash Brothers game.

 

[jman2050]

But no seriously, the problem I have is that there is a standard of quality in Smash that is automatically being attributed to this game merely by association when, in fact, there's no evidence to suggest that the developers are talented enough to pull off a Smash-like game that succeeds on its own merits.

Basically, if the implicit selling point is "It's just like smash brothers!" that's an automatic red flag from the start.

 

[Kunan]

It's interesting how they established a new studio specifically for this game. Reminds me of Brawl's development. Perhaps lightning will strike again?

 

[CielTynave]

Will you buy it if it has Noctis or Cloud?

Come on, you know it'll be Lightning instead considering how much SE keeps shoving her in our face.

Spoiler

I'd love it if she was in though
