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

Still not getting this, not because I'm more Nintendo than Sony, but mainly since I don't own a PS3.
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.
THE CREED: Nothing is True. Everything is Permitted.
"...That's rather cynical."
"It would be if it were doctrine, but it is merely an observation of the nature of reality.
To say that Nothing is True is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shephards of our own civilization.
To say that Everything is Permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with the consequences, whether glorious...or tragic."
