You still aren't receiving the full experience with a demo/beta. Playing two different maps and just four characters doesn't give off a fun type of experience. 

If I played a ssbb demo with the same limited maps and characters I would find it to a be a crap experience. 

but it was doing bad before "these two weeks(ending Jan 5 and 12)"

;)

you little devil you

lol

trying to pour salt in the eyes

but what number does it need to reach to "sell good" in your opinion, tbone?

depends on expectations. 500k is the median for an ip like this. you may aswell say 400k is the benchmark.

Anything over 500k is good for a new franchise, but since this is the SSB of PS, i expect no less than 2mil lifetime, but it'll be good if this game gets a mil i guess. TBH, if it gets a mil now it wont be that much of an accomplishment! Why? Well PS3 has over a 70mil userbase and this game got heavy discounts, more than every game this holiday! Me personally think it well have 1.2mil life w/o bundle imo

PSASBR doesn't have even a tenth of the star power of the SSB series. So, yes, 1/10 is quite justified, since it's mostly the star power and not the gameplay itself that sells the title.

As a massive fan of fighters (see: I own more than six dozen games in the genre), I don't see how you can say PSASBR DOESN'T have glaring issues. Its battle system fails to make anything clear to you except how soon you'll be able to do a power attack, and how powerful that attack might be. It doesn't tell you how many kills you've made, how much damage you've accrued/how easily you might be killed, how many lives you have, or when you're even in a match that's decided by most kills, first to three kills, last to die so many times, etc. The power attacks don't always kill with the same rate of damage, and I am occasionally capable of escaping them. But without any kind of meter to display how quickly they're damaging me, there's no way to properly understand the mechanic.

Combine all of that with the absolutely ridiculous lineup, and I really don't see how you can make any argument in the game's defense EXCEPT to say that, yes, it's enjoyable - especially if you're a big Sony fan.

The problem wasnt the characters or the maps, it was the mechanics and the physics i had a problem with.  

its kinda weird how much delight people take in trashing this game
whenever i encounter a game i don't enjoy or that offends me in some way
i take a step back acknowledge that its not for me and move on to another one, i don't make it my business to jump at any opportunity to trash it just because i've acknowledge that its not for me
seems pretty childish imo, but carry on

It's not that it's just bad it is insulting to Nintendo and anyone can see it is a carbon copy of the idea of Smash bros with a worse roster and worse gamplay mechanics. Even non-nintendo fans shake their heads at this game.

I as a consumer have the absolute right to complain about a product when it is terrible. All this trashing is a warning left for years to come. "Don't blatently copy others". If trashing the game on internet forums is they way to do it I'm happy with that.

We all know the power of trashing, it has forced people to change. 

Oh okay I get what you are saying. It's a total different game from other fighters. 

Normally I'd roll my eyes at such a thread but all these All-Stars hate threads have really gotten on my nerves.  Why not just keep it to the several that are already up?  In this instance, a copy-cat thread comparing PS3 and Wii U sales would be amusing.
