This is what happens when most of your games on your system are third party. Can you even imagine the amount of bullshit you would have to go through to get the rights to use characters?

It may be a lot easier if they try again now considering back then the PS3 was doing bad and Sony was getting beat by Microsoft. I'm sure they could get Crash this time. Cloud I doubt, fucking Smash got him and that still blows my mind.

I think Sony could score Crash now that the PS4 is getting a Crash Trilogy Remastered.
Also they could get Chosen Undead since they have a good relationship with From Software

>>345388397

Sony wasn't in any position to argue with third parties back then. They lost a ton of money with the PS3. Sony still isn't doing too hot but Playstation is the most successful part of them now. I heard Namco actually wanted Heihachi in Smash, too.

>>345389598
It's actually a great game though, the only thing that fucks it up is the KOing aspect of the entire game.
It's pretty good tho tbf
>>
>>345389598

Unpopular opinion but I think Superbot did an alright job with getting the characters just right and everything felt faithful to the games. The real issue was the gameplay wasn't very fun. You can't try to go up against Smash with roster alone, the game has to be fun first. That's when you throw your mascots in.
>>
>>345389783
I got bored and watched a series of videos that went over the movesets of each character, stages, and even the items.
I was honestly somewhat impressed with how much material they went with.
>>
>>345389679

>Actually great

It's actually not. The combat is boring. They fucked up man.
>>
>>345390301
No it's good.
It's just how to KO them that's annoying. There's nothing else you can complain about.
>>
>>345390038

It's a shame because that team was in a very unfortunate situation. They were new, had a tight budget from Sony, and a lot of third parties wouldn't work with them or made tough deals. For what it's worth, they did their homework and all the characters felt like how they should be.
>>
Only thing worse than the roster was the game itself. What a mess.
>>
>>345390385

I have a couple of complaints besides the gameplay. I think the music could have been better, and the UI was pretty shitty. Smash's UI is so unique and if they wanted to compete they should tried a little harder.
>>
all things considered sony smash was an alright game once you get used to the KO system, they just really should have added a health mode or something.

It's just a shame this game went through so much hell during development, you can really tell they tried their best to make an honest smash game.
>>
>>345390385

I'm complaining about the one thing that matters: combat. Shit sucked bro. Nothing you did mattered other than feeding your KO bar. The definition of boring.

But hey, you and the ten other people who like this game can always play together.

Not him but I feel that visuals wise the crossover aspect didn't mesh too well. I think they needed a unified artstyle to make the characters don't stand out from each other too much
>>
is this like digimon rumble arena 2
>>
>>345390735

It didn't help the PR for this game was disastrous. I remember some dude interviewed one of the developers and he was throwing so much shade that they copied smash bros. I think he even made a point to ask why they tagged their E3 video with a smash bros tag. Tons of people were overreacting.

I remember reading early on that they originally wanted to go with a unified style, which is where some of that horrible character concept art came from, but in the end they decided to just have a mixed art style as a "stylistic" choice.

A good unified artstyle would have been better, but between that concept art (I can't find it for whatever reason) and what we got, they made the right choice.

Parappa and Sir Dan were what made even check this game out. Those games were my favorite PS1 games.

They wanted Dante too but Capcom would only give them Donte. Apparently negotiations for Dante escalated to the point where Capcom just gave them the ultimatum of Donte or nothing so they just took what they could get.

There was also one other character they tried to get, I forget which, where allegedly they were laughed at when they went to the rights holders for permission.

PSABR was made to be competitive but also have party game elements. It didn't work out

What really pisses me off about Big Daddy is how basically all the accessories for him were actually rapture related, but when Infinite came out they fucking changed everything to Infinite garbage.

I used to use the Spider Splicer avatar but they changed it to a fucking generic 1920's woman to fit with the Infinite theme that didn't exist outside of the level

>>345393508
So their mistake was that they fell for the "Smash is competitive" meme.

PSASBR would have been great if Sony cut all the multiplat characters and wasn't afraid to pander to otakus with PlayStation's wide selection of anime characters.

i agree with you though

>>345393508

Smash started out as a simple fighting game about Dragons or something and Nintendo put their characters in it. If Sony seriously wants to compete against Smash, they have to build a game that plays really fun, then add your characters to it.

>In an interview about the development of Super Mario Sunshine with producer Takashi Tezuka and directors Yoshiaki Koizumi and Kenta Usui, it was mentioned that the game's development began with the idea of gameplay involving a water pump.[14] However, at first the developers thought that the world was too daringly out of character with Mario. Therefore, they tried using a man-type character, but thought this was too odd and that "if there was a man next to Mario, there is a sense of incongruity."[14] There were ten candidates for possible water nozzles, and FLUDD was chosen because of fitting in the game's setting, despite it not being one of the favorites.[14] They also stated that several Yoshi features were omitted, such as Yoshi vomiting water fed to him.[14]

>In a recent interview with NZGamer, game director Omar Kendall talked about the decision to include to Coles in the game. According to Kendall, initial development had room for only one Cole who would remain a hero or turn infamous depending on their actions throughout the battle. But the IP holders were adamant that the character was in fact two different people and they wanted two different guys.

I wants MS to make a smash style game with Rare characters. They could simply put Fulgore, Rash, Banjo, Johanna Dark, Cooper, Conker, Jetman, whatever. Maybe add Master chief and Raam as guest characters.
>>
>>345411984
Some of these rival choices are pretty weird though.

Drake vs Sly and Jak vs Ratchet is cool

but why Sir Daniel vs Radec? or Evil Cole vs Fat Princess? I realize they were running out of choices but,come on.
>>
>>345411984
What stopped it from happening? Lack of interest or funds?
>>
>>345412312
According to the wiki the connections were

>Connection: Gameplay-wise, both inFamous and Fat Princess rely heavily on duality with the colors red and blue representing different sides. In Fat Princess, you can choose either the Red Kingdom or the Blue Kingdom, and in inFamous, Cole can become either Good Cole, who is represented by the color blue, or Evil Cole, who is represented by the color red. Both also have a theme of greed, with Evil Cole being power hungry and Fat Princess always being hungry and demanding for cake. Evil Cole strives to achieve dominance over everyone else and is feared and hated by the people while Fat Princess is a part of a government (a kingdom) that has absolute power and is beloved by her subjects.

http://playstationallstars.wikia.com/wiki/Evil_Cole_MacGrath

>Connection: Both Killzone and MediEvil franchises have had games made by SCE Cambridge. Both characters have also been killed in the games that they have debuted in, and both were killed by a shot to the head (Colonel Radec shot himself for failing to defeat the ISA and Sir Daniel was shot in the left eye by an arrow before MediEvil even starts). Ironically, both die at the opposite point in their respective games, with Radec dying at the end of the game, and Sir Daniel dying before the game even begins. Both are also soldiers who have held high ranks (both are also commanders), with Sir Dan leading the Gallowmere army into battle, and Radec being a high-ranking official in the Helghast. Also Radec is from the future while Sir Daniel is from the past, and Radec uses guns and an Army knife while Sir Daniel uses his sword and shield.

Here's a fun fact

Ratchet and Clank: Full Frontal Assault and Little Big Karting failed far more than Playstation All-Stars. On the PSN Top 10 sellers, both games fail off the charts a week after release.

Playstation All-Stars remained on the top 10 sellers for months.

They still receive support. Sony even made LBK the PSN+ Free Game starter pack.

Sony was so ashamed of Playstation All-Stars, they decided to promote and support games that performed far worse.
>>
I would have liked this game more if it was an actual smash clone and if they had better characters like fucking Cloud and Snake who are in Smash instead of this game.

It's data I collected since Playstation All-Stars came out. The game was a consistent top seller on PSN for 10-11 months.

I don't have the data on me anymore, but the Playstation Blog should have a tag for PSN top sellers by month. You can gather the data there.

Ken Levine personally offered Sony Big Daddy and even wrote his storyline in the game.
Also if Spyro were to get in it would most likely be his Skylanders incarnation

Apparently they wanted Spyro and Crash, but Activision was like," Pay me money, lol" at the time.

If they had released the game now though, They probably couldve got them, since Sony and activision currently have this agreement going on right now.
>>
>>345414642
They would get Crash but probably not Spyro because Activision would most likely insist it must be Skylanders Spyro and I don't think Sony would want to repeat another Donte situation

okay concept, terrible KO system, doesn't have their main stars as Playstation (Crash, Spyro, Cloud).

Would work better now but Sony would need to shell out the money to make it work. I'd like to see it. Ome key though is they really need to accentuate the games that are thought of as Playstation now. Souls series in particular.
>>
>>345412198
Play the new killer instinct it's kinda becoming microsofts version of smash or PlayStation all stars
>>
>>345419139

Sir Dan is probably the only real one that generated positive buzz on here.

Spike maybe, but I know a lot of people were turned off by the Million Monkeys design.

The rest of the cast was pretty boring or expected shit. Really, people were looking for guest characters from very notable titles or characters from obscure games.

Superbot delivered none.
