from what i've played the game does indeed deserve to be a million seller imo

its the most fun i've had in a fighting game since the first naruto ultimate ninja storm came out and i'm enjoying the mechanics more than smash's mechanics

sony coming out with a game like this has been long overdue imo

Out of curiousity, what makes you say the mechanics of this game are better than Smash?

 

comboing opponents is more natural

killing with supers in general forces players to be more strategic with how they play for most characters while with smash once the opponents percentage is high enough the overall strategy is simply to deliver a blow powerful enough to knock the opponent off the stage 

the characters vary in terms of their movesets, movement etc more than characters from smash imo
