Sony fans resorting to listing 3rd party characters for 'Sony Smash Bros' shows

Judging a game based off no screenshots, no info, no release date, no nothing.

The simple joys of system wars. :roll:

...how weak their roster actually is, especially since the characters they list have appeared on Nintendo and/or Microsoft platforms for around a decade now (Cloud and Sephiroth were even in the Nintendo handheld Kingdom Hearts titles!), and sometimes even SEGA platforms (Croc and Tomb Raider). Seriously, if you guys think this game actually has a lick of a chance of doing well, you'd better start coming up with characters actually owned by Sony, because they aren't going to be wasting budget money on licensing for characters that are no longer relevant and aren't theirs.Nintendonly

yeah yeah.. since you seem capable of seeing the future can you give me the winning nos for the next lottery draw :)

But Sony got ton of 1st party games with charaters in them... so whats the problem?

Has this game's existence even been confirmed yet? :|

no more weaker than the sega roster in that sonic all stars racing in your sig, TC...

Even Nintendo used 3rd party characters. A lot of Sony's IP's won't fit into this type of game... Uncharted? Resistance? I don't see it.SaltyMeatballs

Well, chances are there won't be many, if at all any, third party characters in the game.

I can't wait to see people go "Oh, isn't that that ice cream truck guy from that game where I drove over the eiffel tower 15 years ago? Oh, and why is Indiana Jones have such greasy hair?"

This not mean that 3rd party won't do the same to Sony in same rules, Having characters in such gam could be considered adrvitisment, i bet few LBP costumes with 3rd party charaters also been pused by there original developers then asked by Sony, specialy if we talking about Sega and Sonic that seems magicly sell himself in lot of 3rd party games

Look how bad these games were- Nintendonly

I don't know if you're being sarcastic but Mod Nation Racers was actually quite good, and took skills :|

Why you talking that game will be bad if you don't even know about it's form of gameplay?

btw ModNation Racers is not bad.... and it's not cross-over, it's same as 3rd party costumes in LBP or Krotos in MK9

By critics or the players? :| We know everyone was anal about it comparing it to mario kart even though the game was nothing like it. It was a modifying racing game :| The game never had it's fair chance, I played it and the only issue was the long loading times other than that it was quite good and fun.

Nope but i do find it ironic the gam in your sig scored the same as one you claim was panned.

...how weak their roster actually is, especially since the characters they list have appeared on Nintendo and/or Microsoft platforms for around a decade now (Cloud and Sephiroth were even in the Nintendo handheld Kingdom Hearts titles!), and sometimes even SEGA platforms (Croc and Tomb Raider).

The new System Wars rules let me ask you how stupid you are without getting modded. Their roster should be strong because Sony actually has a connection third party developers. I feel like the only reason Nintendo didn't include third parties is because their console wasn't exactly filled with them and they don't want to advertise 3rd party games on other consoles. If my favorite character in Sony smash were, say, Sora, you can bet that I'm going to buy the game he's in on my console of choice (btw, where the hell is KH3?). I would be SHOCKED if Sony did not have a roster with both first and third parties. I think we can all expect Ratchet and Clank to make the cut and more than likely a Chimera even though Insomniac is third party because they would add to the roster AND sell more games for Insomniac.

Not to mention that Sony's lineup isn't pathetic. I personally expect Ratchet, Clank, Quark, Jak and Daxter, Sly, Bently, Murray, Cole, Nix, Kuo, Kessler, Drake, Kratos, Zeus, Hades, a Helghast, a Chimera, Loco Roco yellow thing, an ape from Ape Escape, Sacboy, a Mod Nation Racer, and Sweetooth. Sony owns all these franchises so there's 22 characters. Solid. Then when you add in third parties, like Ezio, Nariko, Sora, Snake, Sonic ect. I think there's strong potential.

The truth is basically: Nintendo couldn't use many 3rd party characters because they weren't on their platform, as previously said, they were so limited to their very own characters it's laughable, at least Sony has a whole wide range of characters they have available to use. Kinda funny when you think about it.JohnF111

There's a MGS game on the Gamecube, Plus Kojima has supported nintendo with other project's it would only be natural for him to want his Icon character in there. Also I think the 2nd metal gear game was on Nintendo.

whether you like it or not, nintendo would have used 3rd party if it had enough support from them. Also I suspect it has to do with the agreement because 3rd party publishers would likely want in on the money for using their characters so it's probably not going to happen at all much in the Sony version.
