PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale leaks again; Raiden and Sackboy spotted

Actually it’s great PR for both Nintendo and Sony. Now they can show that the options are open and even give some coverage for SSBB at the same time. That’s like how when I look up SSF4 combo videos and find KOF13 combos too. It just helps with awareness of both

@50 They could if they wanted to. But the gaming industry as a whole is full of blatant cloning. It’s not something that has a lot of strength in the courts. That and the fact that Nintendo probably don’t really give a fuck.

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, as they say.

There are differences in the gameplay, obviously, but that doesn’t change the fact that entire shell, concept and a huge portion of the gameplay design is ripped straight out of SSBB, the only other game of its type. Only a blind person or a raging fanboy could possibly argue against this being a rip-off.

It’s amazing me how much people can delude themselves sometimes.

#48 sorry but changing a game (uncharted) when the creators did had a complete different vision of what the game was ( with fantasy settings and all the likes), in order to compete with gears, is not better than what you think this case is, for me is even worse, now we never know how that uncharted game would end up being, maybe it would be way better, or worse, but now we never know, and just to compete with gears, i did prefer if uncharted was release under naughty dog original vision to tell you the truth
p.s and maybe its a possibility here that naughty dog did had a very well plan trilogy, but what we got was almost the same game but perfected, although for me the second was the better, the third was the same thing but not as great, but either way now we never know.

@53 What the hell do Gears and Uncharted have to do with any of this? The games are nothing alike.

Actually there’s a major difference in gameplay. In SSB the focus is Percentage and Smashing your foe off the board. In PASBR the focus is supers/orbs/vaporizing your foe. Those are actually huge differences in gameplay and style.

SSB has open levels PASBR has closed. The only thing people can claim rip off of is it’s a brawl game based on unique characters inspired by First party characters. And even there Sony’s take goes beyond the scope of nintendos because they have “All-Stars” meaning they can have people from any franchise they left it open.

@55 “The only thing people can claim rip off of is it’s a brawl game based on unique characters inspired by First party characters.”

Lawl. The “only” thing. That’s what’s makes it so funny. 90% of what it is is identical.

An apple can be can be green or red but it’s still an apple, not an orange.

“And even there Sony’s take goes beyond the scope of nintendos because they have “All-Stars” meaning they can have people from any franchise they left it open.”

That doesn’t even make any sense. The name means no more or less than Smash Bros does.

Also, I have been looking through youtube on Sony’s official pages and none of their direct videos tag SSB

I think you we’re looking at the tags of a person that uploaded it.

#54 Agree they had not that much in common, but i mean the fact it was created the way it was in order to compete with gears, even if the results are not the same it was done in order to have some things that are very similar to cater the same crowd, like the shooting and the cover mechanics, Naughty Dog stated that they had a fantasy setting in mind, but they changed because sony insisted in compete with that game, thats my point we dont know how it did play, maybe it was different if the setting was different too, now we never know.

Yeah but they taste differently and cook differently too. Just because an green apple can be categorized in the Apple family doesn’t mean it does everything it’s apple brethren do.

Actually yes it does the name is Playstation: All Star Battle Royale. Which if you read it how its structured is a game that is hosted by Sony but has All Stars. That’s called word play. Same how if you were to make a movie about Bruce Wayne like; Bruce Wayne: Batman!. It let’s you know Batman is the subtext to the main idea being Bruce Wayne

#59 Yes, but they took a green apple, and turned like a brownish red apple, they could let them be green as original intended by Naughty Dog.

But what does it matter now? Naughty Dog like the Master chefs they are made a amazing franchise definitive to this generation. Why complain about potential when they clearly lived up to it.

My sentiments were de-railed slightly with the over focus on Snake in Smash Bros. The point i was making was;

Even with Snake being the most out of place fighter in SSB, they still did a better job of making him gel with the rest of the fighters than how this looks…

You must be so blind to not see the terrible quality of this game. I mean, look at the gameplay videos!!!

It is what it is:

A quick cash in copy with no heart in it and average looking graphics / gameplay.

It’s like when Pixar creates a popular animation, then a cash in studio makes up a quick version in the hope it will confuse consumers into buying the copy.

Now, if they really had to copy, why make such an inferior looking clone?

Sony fanboy: Yes! Finally got us a SSB’s!

Ninty Fanboy: Stop ripping us off!

Xbot: Looks rubbish !

Zynga: Well played!

Sony fanboy: HOW DARE YOU!!

There are some truly hilarious straws being grasped here.

People need to take a step back and realise they’re seriously discussing the merits of apples in this so called argument.
