I didn't hate the game. Just didn't like the rules. It tried too hard to change the fighting game formula, and base things off of kill points. That's why fighting games are supposed to have multiple game modes.
Also, what is clockwork and seth doing? I'd feel better if those guys were on the project. I don't even remember if they're still at Sony. They don't need a massive experted fighting game team to develop the project. Just one, maybe two, to guide it.
I'm not a nintendo fan, I don't own nintendo consoles, and I don't play them. So, smash has nothing to do with my interest. I tried the beta, and liked it. But, not enough to buy.
However, I may get my 1st nintendo console after I get PS4.
Someone's going to have to balance the game, and namco is doing smash. Otherwise, balance issues may be a huge problem. but, we could have another Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 on our hands, which is a good thing. I don't have any Sony favorites, so I don't care who is in the game. Just make it fun.
