[QUOTE="JohnnyCageMK"]

[QUOTE="lx_theo"] Biggest complaints? Roster could be larger (Though a lot of people like it, plus they are offering free DLC characters in the future) Story mode is like a typical fighter arcade story. Some people wanted more. Its a rip off of SSB yet not one at the same time (Yeah... These are the idiots who complain its not similar enough while proclaiming its a clone). Other than that, its very promising and extremely fun. I was indifferent towards the game before trying the beta. Now I'm hyped for it like no other in recent memory.lx_theo

Its possible to do both and thats what this is. A bad clone. This is like MoH Warfighter compared to COD.

They are complaining about how the fighting mechanics are DIFFERENT XD Unless you think being the same genre is a clone (Halo, Forza and more, for example), then you're being ridiculous.

I've played the beta dude. Its Smash Bros minus the fun.

Yep, because most other people disagreeing with you, the well known and often laugh at lemming, isn't enough to show its a fun game. :lol: I played the Beta, too. I spent a good 20 hours on that alone. I'd say its fun.

Well I played the beta and it was quite fun and yes I have played Smash before. Is it really hard for these two games to co-exist?

He's the most delusional of the lemmings on this board, you'll never convince him anything with "Sony" on the box is worth anything. Hell, even charizard said the game was fun (king of the sheep). Pretty sure no one in their right mind cares about Johnny's opinion. :lol:

[QUOTE="game_masta14"]Well this releases tomorrow and the hype is still A. Who are you guys going to main if you get it? I tried out Jak on the Vita demo at Gamestop so I'm doing him first. Also, some people got the game early and they've already posted up run throughs of the character's arcade modes. Here's a vid of Kratos' when he meets his rival Sweet Tooth (SPOILERS OF COURSE): http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=MlITgxmDo2A#t=1234s

I think i'll probably main Jak and good cole. Jak being my faviourite all time character, and I like the look of good coles moveset. I think I will prefer mostly close range characters rather than those who use weapons.

I already know that (heck, his material has given me a new sig). I find it funny he constantly jumps into these threads and cares so much about Sony even to make a thread about one of their games. At least loosingENDS knows when and where to pop up.

Wow...not a lot of faith on this game.

Sadly i don't have that much faith either, like many have said this looks like a bad clone of SSB, it just doesn't look that fun...the roster is lackluster and the score method is plain terrible, seriously, what were they thinking when they come up with this method? still, i think it will get an 7.5-8.0.

They also said ZombiU would be a killer app and we saw how that turned out.

Maybe. They were also invested in ZombiU, that did poorly. However, there is also the fact that All Stars seems to be a genuinely fun game. I see low 80s for it all around. Which is a great score for a first try (and hopefully, in the sequel, they can fix some of the issues, like the god awful roster)

Well considering how much they're doing after the review I'd say it might get a good score (maybe around an 8/10).

Right before I go and grab my preordered copy to! Don't really care about the Review since it looks fun to me but wouldn't mind if they gave it a half decent rating. IE 8+

What is do awful about the roster? Its got damn near every relevant PS3/PS2/PS1 character. Theres even obscure ones like Spike and Parappa.

No, it's not every relevant character. Where's Crash? Where's Cloud? Where's Snake? Why are characters like Big Daddy, New Dante, or Raiden in there instead of the ones I just listed above?

Raiden? Idk. Crash? Activision wanted an arm and a leg for him even though he's a dead franchise. They didnt have the paper for him. Raiden? Promoting MGR. Superbot specifically went for classic Dante but Capcom said haha nope. New Dante's here to represent his game. Cloud? Idk. If anything, we'd probably get Lightning. Either way, for 20 characters you cant please everyone but they did a damn good job of representing Sony.

I don't like the roster. I mean, I'm sure there are many out there who do, you seem to like it, but I just wish it was better. I hope it'll be better next time. The original SSB didn't have too good of a roster, then Melee went nuts :P

I'm predicting an 80something metascore. Reading around I hear the arcade story is perhaps a little lacking. In terms of the roster, I don't know. It does have some strange characters, I guess you have to ask how vital it is to the game for the characters to truly be "all-stars". I thought Kat and Emmett were really unusual character choices, but after reading around i've seen a heap of people really excited to see Kat in there. And those vital characters they missed out, like Crash, they've made it pretty clear they had trouble getting permission to use them, but DLC is still an option.

Im ok with it. Initially I was pissed about the lack of RPG characters but then Kat from Gravity Rush was announced. You shouldnt lose hope yet. They might add someone you like as dlc. DLC characters get everything the originals do (stage, story mode, trials, etc.)

Hopefully, although I'm not too big on DLC. Their inclusion via DLC, however, will indicate that they might be in future games, so yeah, fingers crossed!

Crash? Activision has got a vice grip on him and Spyro and they're probably charging both arms and legs for them and they don't have the dough for them. Cloud? Either Square is asking for alot of money of him and/or they want them to include Lightning because EVERYONE LOVES LIGHTNING :roll: Plus they already have their own fighting game X-over with FF characters. Snake? No idea, this one could go either way since they could use Solid Snake, Naked Snake (Big Boss), or Old Snake. Who knows. Big Daddy is in because Kev Levine wanted him in. Raiden got in for promotion purposes. Same with Donte but I also think Capcom wouldn't let them use old uncle Dante. You gotta understand how getting these characters works before complaining how this character didn't get in.

If a Final Fantasy representative ends up in the game, it most certainly will be Lightning.:|

Sora from Kingdom Hearts is a personality, especially since it could also coincide with the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 release.

Instead of "Evil Cole" I wish they would've just included Nix.

I think it depends on how well the game sells for the chances of those other characters getting in.

Sucker Punch wanted both very contrasting and different versions of Cole to be represented if any was at all. Would you prefer no Cole or two Coles?

I would've preferred a more original option for the second slot. Sucker Punch should've been more compromising.

I'm anticipating the reviews and I expect the roster is only weak because it's the first game. If they included tons more I doubt they would make a sequal, which at this point they probably will make one.

Oh yeah this comes out tomorrow, I'm calling a 7.0 here and maybe an 8.0 at IGN.

I might pick it up later when it goes on sale.

[QUOTE="_Cadbury_"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] Maybe. They were also invested in ZombiU, that did poorly. However, there is also the fact that All Stars seems to be a genuinely fun game. I see low 80s for it all around. Which is a great score for a first try (and hopefully, in the sequel, they can fix some of the issues, like the god awful roster)charizard1605
I'm predicting an 80something metascore. Reading around I hear the arcade story is perhaps a little lacking. In terms of the roster, I don't know. It does have some strange characters, I guess you have to ask how vital it is to the game for the characters to truly be "all-stars". I thought Kat and Emmett were really unusual character choices, but after reading around i've seen a heap of people really excited to see Kat in there. And those vital characters they missed out, like Crash, they've made it pretty clear they had trouble getting permission to use them, but DLC is still an option.

Hey, Subspace Emissary in SSBB had a godawful story too, you know :P

Man it wasn't even the story that bugged me about that mode.

The characters just were NOT built to do that kind of left to right platforming plus fighting crap that you had to do in SSE. Oh and not to mention the boost launcher things killing you offscreen because the screen decides not to move forward after the launch were pretty annoying as well.

Oh and I'm guessing a 7.0 or so here. Sounds interesting but the reviews will probably be peppered in negatives on character roster, stage layouts, and maybe the controversial special system they got going.

The story was basically incoherent and miserable, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy watching the CGI cutscenes, it was entertaining enough to see various Nintendo characters interact with each other. But I agree that the game was not designed to be a platformer or the other kinds of junk they had you do. It was just basically boring for the most part.

Do we know who's reviewing it? I actually kind of want this game to do well, because it has a lot of potential.

And is the absenceof Snake/Crash/Spyro/Cloud the only reason people are complaining about the roster? Because it doesn't seem that bad to me.

I would imagine GregMiller to be reviewing it since he seems to be the Playstation guy.

I hope he's okay. I heard he was diagnosed with cancer a few months ago. On the bright side it was detected early and a less severe type as well.

[QUOTE="Capitan_Kid"][QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="Capitan_Kid"] What is do awful about the roster? Its got damn near every relevant PS3/PS2/PS1 character. Theres even obscure ones like Spike and Parappa.

No, it's not every relevant character. Where's Crash? Where's Cloud? Where's Snake? Why are characters like Big Daddy, New Dante, or Raiden in there instead of the ones I just listed above?

Raiden? Idk. Crash? Activision wanted an arm and a leg for him even though he's a dead franchise. They didnt have the paper for him. Raiden? Promoting MGR. Superbot specifically went for classic Dante but Capcom said haha nope. New Dante's here to represent his game. Cloud? Idk. If anything, we'd probably get Lightning. Either way, for 20 characters you cant please everyone but they did a damn good job of representing Sony.

Goddamnit, do we have to explain each and everytime time that Crash Bandicoot and Spyro are under Activision now and not Sony's 1st party anymore? Activision, the company that single-handedly raised the price of XBL with $10 through a backdoor deal...you expect them to hand out usage of one of their IP's for less than a billion dollars? You people are unsatisfiable. At times it's a SMB-clone, at other times it's no here near as fun as SMB. At other times people cry for Crash and Spyro that have been sodomized by Activision...Make up your damn mind and put lipstick on your forehead. Bash coherently please.

Are you serious? That's terrible, at least it was detected and he has a fighting chance. I will pray for him.

As for All Stars, I will be picking this game up tomorrow. Haters are gonna hate, I do not care what they say. I don't care what this game scores either, it's a good game to me.

So both remaining exclusives for the rest of the year for cows received A hype.. hilarious. Just admitting defeat early to avoid damage controlling.

This is a silly thing to say when all of SW is voting for the hype; not just cows.
