People will hate me for this but maybe they shouldnt rip off smash, maybe go to the MK/Street fighter type of fighter, or innovate and make there own.


"Rip Off" - so its ok to rip off MK/Street Fighter but not Super Smash Bros? Nintendo doesnt have copyright on the genre or type of game, they have copyright on the characters and the content used within.


it was a Rip off, But even if you like it many others criticised it for it. Thats one reason it didn't sell so well imo

I didn't like the game, but it's not a ripoff.  It's clearly not a ripoff.  The graphical style looking similar to Smash is the only ripoff about it.  Oh noes.  Graphics look like Smash!  Ripoff!  Play the game and you might see how much it isn't a ripoff.

The graphics didn't look like smash, it was a rip off in terms of gameplay, it might of played different but in all truth it played just like smash. obviously differences here and there but still. Look at all the reviews for the game, i bet 90% of every review compared it to smash brothers. They wouldn't have if it we'rent similar

While you may have played it, I doubt it from your statement.  It may look similar in style to Smash, but it plays nothing like Smash.  Even if you were to remove the supers in order to kill enemies, it'd still play nothing like Smash.  The combat itself is entirely different. 


I should of said the community thinks its a smash rip off (which in many ways it is) and thats wat turned this game down. Sales are good dont get me wrong but it did many things wrong. 

No unlockable characters unless you pay for them is a huge slap to the face, my friiend is a huge FF fan and thats where i played the game at (i only played 6 matches) and he was beyond pissed that no FF made the roster, even Sora! He was pissed that you had to pay for characters! I mean seriously, sony aint bad like other huge third party company in terms of dlc+$$$ but they could of added the 6 DLC characters as unlockables. They hold back for more $$$ is a huge slap to the face


2 characters were free: Kat and Emmette

Can't remember if Zues was, didn't care to grab him.

I was also dissappointed that some of the most iconic characters were noticably missing. The game is still fun to play tho. Like I said in OP, it just needs a lot of polish and leveling out.

He doesn't play like Link, just he exudes some really over powered techniques. Every Tourny I've watched of Smash mostly has Meta Knight and Link owning all else. Or how Ryu is over powered in Streetfighter, or Jin in early Tekkens. Kratos isn't meant to be the face of the game so their is really no excuse for it.

Unless you're not playing the most recent patch, Kratos is no longer overpowered.  He's a good character still, but he's not even top tier anymore.  I haven't played for over half a year, but he was mid tier before I quit playing.

I haven't touched it in some months so maybe not. I

I found it to be a really good time waster on Vita while riding the bus until the patch that for some reason blocks me from using custom soundtracks......WTF is that about? Some games I really can't get into without listening to my own music, no matter how much I love them. PSASBR and SuperstarDust are those games.

Sony made the mistake in character selection, they put more of an advertisement roster than a Real PS Roster, how do you not add Spyro/Crash/Sora/At least 2 FF characters (Cloud FTW).

I mean big daddy? Bad Cole? a clone (reminds me of SSBM with clones -_-).

Based off one single review that I pulled from Metacritic.  Went to Metacritic, opened the first review, and it starts with this.

It’s clear from the offset that Playstation All Stars Battle Royal is not an original concept. Franchise favourites competing against each other in brawling melee combat is something companies like Nintendo have been doing (and doing well) since the days of the N64. This in turn has made it far too easy for far too many to dismiss Playstation All Stars as a ‘Smash Bros clone’. However, after just a few minutes of playing you will realise that such a dismissal would be a huge mistake. Look past the concept and you will find that Playstation All Stars is a different beast altogether.

Just looked at the next review text on Metacritic.

DO NOT call PS All-Stars a Smash Bros. knock off, it is actually anything but a copy or clone of Nintendo’s fabled fighter. SuperBot has taken the most basic premise of that series and crafted a full-featured fighter that delivers something beyond the casual experience and that crosses over into the competitive fighting realm.

Going to the next review yet again points out that it's very different from Super Smash Bros.  I'm not even going to bother posting review after review, but you get the idea.  The only people who continue stating it's a Smash Bros clone are those that haven't played it.
