selnor said: To be honest this is why PS allstars is a bad idea. The characters are just so BBBBlllllllllluuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Apart from Kratos, J&D and R&C the rest are so boring. In fact a lot are 3rd party and have appeared on Xbox and could easily be in an Xbox allstars. Hell I'd rather an allstars game with Banjo & Kazooie Joanna Dark Masterchief Arbiteur Conker Any Killer Instinct character Battletoads Gruntilda sabre wulf Juno, Vela, or Lupus or all 3. Blinx Marcus Dom Then whatever decent 3rd party dudes

hahahhaha oh wow..now this is a first!

Out of that list I've only ever heard of Marcus. Dom and Masterchief + Arbiteur. That's two franchises.
Selnor, It's really cool and all that you have zero interest in characters like Sweet tooth and Drake but seriously get out of here. This is about the full roster reveal and not about your dream Xbox dream team. Go make a thread for that and ask Microsoft to give its players what you want. That would seem more appropriate.
I'm just happy I will be able to play so many characters out of my childhood memory. If your childhood differs and you seemingly don't even give a shit about the game which has been stated long before: Why continue to bring it up? Why derail every thread with your "view"? Do you see me entering every Forza thread and saying how I dont like the physics and prefer Gran Turismo 5? No.
Because while that could be true (irrelevant at this point), it just has no benefit what so ever.
You are looking over this whole thing from the wrong angle. See it from my perspective!
I love Killzone, Uncharted, God of War, Twisted Metal, InFAMOUS. And I won't include your R&C + J&D.
To even have people like Radec, Drake, Kratos, Sweet tooth and Cole in one game is insane to me. You listed two people from Halo and Gears. I can list 4 from Uncharted alone. But you cannot relate, perhaps it is because you never got attached to these characters. I do reckon you getting a PS3 (and no playing on your "friends" isnt the same) fairly recently whereas I have had it as nearly as long as you have had your 360.
I refer all of you to this thread http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=142755&page=7
Where Selnor claims the game isnt full of a "rememberable" cast.
"My confusion with this is Sony doesn't have any memorable characters. Its true. Kratos, Parapa the Rapa, Drake they are all forgetable."
With all due respect, to me: I will never , ever, forget Nathan Drake.
That character in a way, has inspired me beyond that of a video game. I don't expect you to understand that. After all, you probably find someone like Marcus Fenix to be more "rememberable". Maybe even not. But you have to understand there are people beyond you in this world and not everyone shares your opinion. What are you? Some kind of fortuneteller?
I have now gone rather off topic and would find a temporarily ban rather deeming. I apologize.
You say its your personal opinion or whatever. Yeah, we know it too well and if you actually contributed to the discussion in any way that was new, perhaps we would care. It's exactly as my obsession with Uncharted and the constant praises and jizz anthems I throw everywhere. I am no better.
THIS is however the reason why we cannot have nice things (Sully <3) / discussions in VGChartz and many forums alike.

Actually...
Your post has exposed you for your true mentality. Selnor raised a very strong point - that was based from a neutral perspective. The character roster is awful and you are disuputing that. Most casuals haven't even heard of more than a 3rd of those characters. You may well have but isn't a game for the hardcore...
You sound awfully bitter against a valid argument and sought to make it a personal vendetta against Selnor, what's your problem!? How about adressing his valid argument.
It's not about what characters YOU want, he's argument was that it was generally a bad list. It is because a lot of those characters are obscure ones that MOST PS3 owners won't have heard of (myself included). What's worse is that it is missing the characters that truly are associated with "Playstation". I.E Where the fuck is Crash Bandicoot and characters like that.
Trying to have a sensible conversation and you have to make it about some kind of Sony Vs Microsoft fanboy war. I'm not calling you a fanboy as that is against the rules but it's pretty obvious the way you worded your post that you have some kind of weird damage control defensive nonsens going on?

"Selnor raised a very strong point - that was based from a neutral perspective. The character roster is awful and you are disuputing that."
no...
selnor's post was basically i don't like any of these characters...
which is to be expected because he's not a playstation fan, but the problem with that lies in the fact that the game itself is intended to be based mostly on playstation exclusive chacracters...
if his ( or your ) gripes with the roster are rooted in unfamiliarity with the characters how can his perspective be called neutral when he then goes on to list a bunch of obscure characters from microsoft?
who are blinx, juno, sabrewolf etc?
from my perspective this already makes it look like you have some kind of immature grudge against aldro and that you're unwilling to see that selnor's post at least partially if not entirely doesn't make much sense
"What's worse is that it is missing the characters that truly are associated with "Playstation". I.E Where the fuck is Crash Bandicoot and characters like that."
it has been explained repeatedly that those characters are not sony owned and hence if the associated ip holders are not willing to share them then they may not appear in the game
anyway i'm trilled that there's a game being made where i can duke it out with jak, rachet, drake etc
because i'm actually a fan of their games... which it should be obvious is the intended target of this game
as you've said many times you aren't in that category so why are you bothered about the game?
edit: also
"Most casuals haven't even heard of more than a 3rd of those characters. You may well have but isn't a game for the hardcore..."
who are you to decide who will buy the game or not?
