Ok, it's true that Sony doesn't have a lot of recognised characters, but Ratchet/Jak/Sly/Kratos/Drake, etc are all famous enough to have their own brawl game.
I don't think Microsoft has enough known character. Yes, there are Master Chief, Marcus from Gears...and then?
This two are more famous than any other Sony's characters, but they're just two!


Banjo Kazooie

I don't think Banjo Kazooie it's such a big franchise, it's just on a popularity level as Ratchet or Jak . The only big characters that I can think about are Master Chief and Marcus, I know that there are other less known characters, but the Microsoft's less known characters are less known than the Sony's less known characters. (Hope you got my point! :) )


Comparing sales of N64 generation to PS2 generation is not really fair. PS2 generation was the DVD gen.

Also Banjo Kazooie is up there with Super Mario 64 for quality. And in many ways bettered it. So no Jak and Ratchet are not in the same ball park as what Banjo & Mario were. Its like saying PS1 Crash came close to Mario 64 or Banjo & Kazooie. It just didnt. Not even close.

Rare and Nintendo owned 3d platforming. Now its really just Nintendo. Crashs games are pretty poor in comparison and Spyro as always been me. Although the last one was cool. Rachet meh. Jak was pretty decent, but not the same level of exploration or level design as Rare and Nintendo could pull.

It would remain to be seen if Microsoft could ever put a decent team together to even come close to original Banjo level design.
