So in comparison to the SSB series, how does this compare?

Still not getting this, not because I'm more Nintendo than Sony, but mainly since I don't own a PS3.

I might be getting a PS3 for Christmas, if I do, this is gonna be the first game I get. It really does look fun to play and multiplayer might be a blast, so I'm looking forward to getting it.

There's Cross-Play of PS3 and PSVita versions of the MP part of this game. Which more or less means that a person playing this on their PSVita can go up against people using their PS3. Although that doesn't sounds like too much if you don't own a Vita, it's pretty friggin cool considering PS All-Stars MP is good either way, considering, you know, Brawl Online Multiplayer

Which leads me to this, PS All-Stars, although it is similar to SSB, still manages to be entirely it's own things, providing engaging stage interference that doesn't wreck the game, plenty of smashy smash lasers and "final smashes" of a sort, and really, with the cast ranging from Samurai Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 4 who swings his ninja cyborg skills everywhere to Nathan Drake, the Indiana Jones-National Treasure hunting whitey who looks like a hipster with guns, there's never really a dull moment.

Except for maybe the fact that Kratos is still overpowered since Beta. Goddamnit Santa Monica Studios, fudge off and nerf your mascot for once. (Theres also Nariko from Heavenly Sword, I believe, but she's more or less a female Kratos, so.)

So to me, despite having a smaller cast, less of a polished combat system, and an overall lazy Single Player design, the game is definitely something you want to buy should you ever has a PS3 or a PSVita.





tl;dr PlayStation All-Stars is just about as good as a non-Nintendo Pseudo-SSB game could get, which is to say, a really good 2-4 player smash each other in the face fighting game.

Yeah, I just bought it this week.






It's fan-flipping-tastic! So many people were like, "Oh! It sucks! Blah blah I'm entitled to my opinions but I'm an a** hole at the same time." It's great. But I do think Gex should be in it.

Oh my goodness Gex needs to be in it.

The moment you play Raiden (Samurai Cyborg Ninja Raiden, the new one) you can already tell how broke the silly high heeled man is. That is to say, Kratos equivalent of ridiculousness. His level 2, mother of god.

Radec is only sorta ridiculous. You can easily curbstomp him with most characters if you just all-out attack him.
Also. You have a PS3 now. What ees your PSN namaiwa.

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
