Sly Cooper's shown costume is actually from his new game. All the costumes look awesome and I REALLY hope Sony keeps prices low on future costume packs.
@Elektro, I wait one week after this is released we'll see a sale for it on Newegg for $40 just like with Lollipop Chainsaw :D
They are going to add more character right? To be honest, to get a sale out of me it's going to need well over 20 at the minimum.
I'm really hoping for a steady steam of character reveals; 25+ would be great. Since this is announced at EVO, I wonder if there'll be any 3rd party fighter characters from Capcom (Street Fighter), WB (Mortal Kombat), and the like. Kratos was in MK9, maybe we'll see Scorpion and Kung Lao in PSASBR. If they strike a deal with Capcom too, I'd love to see MK vs SF characters in a party setting.
So what they're saying is that, while it might be derivative of SSB, it's far far superior. No palette swaps or lame characters from stagnate franchises. I can buy that.
yeah parappa is totally not stagnant right now and selling costumes as dlc makes this game much superior to smash bros. for distributing content free of charge and having free alternate costumes (which are recolours but better than having to buy shit after the $60 to me)
There's no problem, Tristrix. I never played smash bros. so I didn't know about Snake being in there. I just thought the characters were all supposed to be exclusives, that's all. Guess I was wrong.
Is this game going to earn the most derivative game award of this generation?
Seriously, I fucking love Smash Bros. but there's nothing appealing about this clone whatsoever. Something about Nintendo mascots fighting one another makes sense. This just seems forced to me.
At least Nintendo had the sense to use a singular style for the characters to make the game cohesive. This game looks like a game that was developed without an art director as is.

I thought it was a little weird at first too, but once you take into account that BioShock Infinite will have move support, and they're planning on making an exclusive Bioshock Vita game, and Levine has praised Sony on a few occasions it's not that big of a surprise.

@Tristix - Metal Gear got its start on MSX and NES. Snake is no more a Playstation character than Bug Daddy is an Xbox one.
That said, Snake makes more sense in a 2D fighter due to his heritage than any of the characters in this game do. Why not just rip off Power Stone instead? it's a 3D brawler and Capcom hadn't made a new one in 13 years.

Thank you, exactly my point.

Not sure where all this negativity is coming from. Speaking as someone who has moved away from a lot of the buddies I used to enjoy SSB on the couch with, a Sony skinned SSB with competent online connectivity alone is worth the price of admission.
Ewwww
Is that Sweet Tooth's pre-order costume from StarHawk? Why? Its soo fugly. I would have appreciate the "oh-so-silly" Sweet Tooth from Twisted Metal 2 instead. Aw well, beggers can't be choosers. Everyone else has a pretty cool one I guess.

I really hope they release a demo, despite all the hype. I'm not expecting it to be better than SSB, but I want to make sure this game is not mediocre. And by that, I mean a lot better than TMNT Smash-Up (which was not really bad).
why is everyone so confused about big daddy?? he is not a playstation exclusive character. The game is just gonna have 3rd party characters as well as sony owned characters...this was announced! Why the confusion?
Im glad they didnt stick to one art style. That alone makes the game for me. Each character somewhat is true to their original games and gives each fighter even more personality and distinction.
@ZThrillz
It was a given that there would be third party character's in this game. Sony's exclusive library of mascots simply isn't robust enough to fill the roster.
Which kind of begs the question as to why they even bothered in the first place.

Was anyone else disappointed not to see Sackboy anywhere? You would think how LBP became such a huge hit, he would have made it in. And if they bring him in later, they should create a module to allow you to bring your costumed saved SB from your LBP/2 save I think.
@ragnar
Maybe because they thought it would be fucking fun? Just like i think it looks really fun from everything ive seen?
Like seriously why is it so hard to understand that? Why cant i have fucking choices? I want to play smash bros and i would love to have other options to explore.
Hate to break it to you fuckers but this game looks amazing.

Thank god these aren't something as stupid as preorder exclusive characters. That would've killed the game for me. Also 2 new characters being revealed today! Woot!
Nice! Nin dropped the ball on alternate costumes, but the hacking community made up for that in Brawl (see: Fierce Deity Toon Link :O).
Still waiting for the Prince from Katamari. It's not exclusive but it's certainly biased torwards the Playstation.
Plus a final sm...attack of a giant ball rolling over everyone with NAAAANANANANA in the background would sell me on the game.

How about Kat from Gravity Rush? What a missed opportunity. It's only the best game on Vita right now, and it seems as if it's going to be a huge franchise for them.
Even with that fucking horrible title I was still pretty excited to play this, but if that roster doesn't beef up a whole lot more I'll be passing this up. I hope they're just taking their time with the reveals.
Yeah...for me to buy this game they have got to havr a bigger fucking roster. This does not even tickle SSBM.
And there better be a fucking huges ass assortment of stages. I swear if it's only like 7 stages with 2-3 unlockable ones, they just fuckin failed.
Seeing the roster size gives me absolutely no hype at all.

They're showing us 8 mother fucking characters.
Skullgirls has 8 characters and it's $15.
You best be troll'in sony.

I love how everyone expects Sony chose only these characters for the game.
Its not like Ratchet, Clank, Jak, Daxter, Sackboy, Cole McGrath, etc would fit into a game like this so I guess it makes sense there are no more characters than these. /sarcasmderp

I'm not the only one who thinks all those costumes look dumb, right? The one I like most is Sly's and even then it's "meh".
This is just not appealing. Then again it's hard for me to imagine a Sony lineup without Crash and Spyro, though they have long since moved on from the Sony exclusive camp.
What a contrived looking game, too. None of the characters seem to mesh with one another. It's a shame they didn't go with one art style and some kind of cohesiveness. This looks like a jumbled mess.

They'll release those characters as DLC. Six months later. And you have to pay for them. And they're on the disc.
