The cast was pretty abysmal, but it was pretty much wasted potential: the game
All they had to do was clone Smash instead of trying to put an extremely shitty spin on things
Benjamin Torres
Cool concept, poor execution. I still want to see Sony try the idea again on PS5.
Noah Wilson
Game with a great concept, a flawed gameplay system, made by a cobbled-together studio full of driven devs with little-to-no help from Sony and blasted by the public as simultaneously being "just a smash bros. clone" and "too different from smash lul"
I and alot of other people really want them to try again, but I know deep down they're not. And what makes it the most infuriating is it's Sony's fault that it failed.

>Have Capcom, Konami and Namco on board
>Doesn't include Resident Evil, Gene, Amaterasu, Alucard, Pyramid Head and Klonoa,
>Soulless Jak
>Donte
>Infamous twice
>Raiden instead of Snake
>So little to choose from they had to dig up Sir Fortesque and Parappa
>Bioshock
Snoy is retarded, no one this game failed.
John Adams
It proves that characters that come from too mature games doesn't fit in a party fighting gane. Note: Dante does fit, but not Donte.
Ayden Peterson
Sony's non-involvement is exactly the reason the third party selection is absolute shit. Apparently Superbot did all of the negotiations themselves and the corps. just ran rough-shot over them.
Ryder Rivera
spikat is best
Hudson Turner
As much as I love Jak, he was pretty soulless in All-stars
>needle lazer nerfed until its not the same weapon
>arc wielder also nerfed until its useless
>cant do the long jump or high jump
>all of his attacks so slow that it doesnt feel like jak at all
>crouch attack is literally him jumping in the air and doing the same attack as down square
>light jak not doing the same attack he did in the first jak
>no mike erwin
>no references to daxters attacks in the psp game
how did they fuck up jak so much.
Jason Wright
Better than Smash
Sebastian Nelson
Also a reminder that the developers of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus were approached by Superbot to use their characters and they just said "No."
Because apparently you can just do that even if you work directly for Sony.
Gabriel White
Even they knew the game is shit.
Jaxson Green
I can't remember the specifics of their game modes, but I think it had some weird gimmick to the scoring that I didn't like
Jason Peterson
pretty awful.
its like they took the digimon battle games and made them shit with a godawful roster, visual direction, music and everything pretty much
Nolan Rogers
Might be the only person on Yas Forums who liked alot
Wyatt Watson
You could only kill with supers which you get by landing regular attacks. It gave huge advantages to characters that could combo easily into a level 1 super (Raiden) and held back characters that couldn't (Jak)
Jordan Rivera
The original roster was better also Dart and Abe were going to be DLC.
Jack Brooks
Nah, I bought it full priced the day it came out and played it all day with my friends at my house. I'll fully admit to loving the shit out of it, but I will acknowledge glaring issues.
Oliver Roberts
>but I think it had some weird gimmick to the scoring that I didn't like
You could only get points by hitting people with super moves. Problem was that the super moves were unbalanced as fuck and the system also caused people to play like faggots.
Matthew Hill
I like it as an example of how shitty and unmemorable playstation characters are
Nathan Lopez
Not to mention some stages actively fucked some supers. Just try getting a kill with Sir Dan's Lvl 3 on the Ape Escape/Killzone Stage.
Jason Walker
I mained Sweettooth in that game. It was an alright game years ago.
Chase Martin
My only real issue is the roster
Adrian Jenkins
>Melee came out 11 years prior and had much more content
No excuses Snoy.
Joshua Brown
Oh right that was definitely the thing I didn't like about it. Can't remember much else about the game so I'm not sure if I had other problems with it outside of that
Nathan Kelly
>Ape Escape/Killzone Stage
If there's one thing that Smash should rip off from this game, it should be the mash-up stages. LocoRoco getting fucked up by a Metal Gear RAY was god damn amazing.
Joshua Smith
I'm genuinely curious. What was your main issue(s) with the roster?
My main gripe was going full bore with the "we really need 3rd parties no matter what!" the devs went with despite not having any leverage with negotiations.
It would have been much better if they stuck with 1st parties, at least for the first entry.
Wyatt Gomez
All they had to do was copy Smash. What a shame.
I really hope they try again and redeem themselves.
Carter Rivera
They tried harder to make it not smash than trying to make an actually good game, the combo system and super kills only really dont mesh with the platformy nature
Christian Clark
>It would have been much better if they stuck with 1st parties, at least for the first entry.
This right here
Kayden Bailey
Sony's sad attempt at gaining the Smash audience. They forgot they don't have mascots or memorable IPs anymore.
Jack Collins
Not just that, but the ost was bomb as fuck. Since they were all mash up stages that means all new remixes for the stage music.
I don't even care for Twisted Metal, but this is probably the best remix in the game and gives me nostolgia like a motherfucker when it gets to the Haven City drop.

Jacob Lewis
I can understand that and agree mostly. I still love the alot of the characters (Sly, Jak, Ratchet) and will still love them even if they never receive a new entry.
Sony properties tend to have a "problem" when it comes to making a game like this in that most of their IPs are story focused and can't continue on indefinitely, taking away recognizability after a certain amount of time has passed.
