Having his face on the cover, the instructions, character select screen, in fights urgh it sends tingles down my spine. For the love of all this is holy in gaming, why couldn't we have the proper Dante? The tried, tested and loved Dante. Hopefully this scum will of all been forgotten in a few years. Ninja Theory can suck it.
Also about Crash to those asking: He's now owned by Activision Blizzard. There that was easy to answer.
With Raiden listed, it can't be the first MGS game, so I wonder if we'll get MGS2's soldier or 4's ninja, or possibly MGR's ninja. An item is listed from MGS4, so perhaps that's the one. Any ninja is fine with me!
chill out dude. dante was always a douche, he just looks like a 2010 one instead of a 2000 one.
WE WANT SNAKE.
WE WANT SNAKE.
Konami gives you... RAIDEN!
Snake is for Smash Bros.
And the Raiden joke continues... muahahahaahaha.
What the hell were they thinking? Especially when the original Dante was born on PS2. If it's true it kills some more of the excitement I had for this game.
i guess Raiden would be suffice for the lack of Snake.
still the game looks stiff tbh, some characters just felt out of place.
2- Put character in game (reboot Dante) that hasn't even appeared in a Playstation game yet.
Love that logic.
I also just thought of the possibilities for 3rd party developers putting their characters in as dlc.
But I'm not really complaining about the lineup so far. I'm pleasantly surprised that they've put some of the characters in that they have. At first I had absolutely no interest in this game (as I don't really care for fighting games in the first place), but even now I'm becoming more and more tempted to buy it.
Put those characters (or at least a few of them) in that I mentioned above and I'll definitely buy it.
Okay, probably not, but a guy can dream.
Still don't get the inclusion of Bioshock. Dante and Heihachi make sense, as do the MGS characters, but Bioshock is just strange. That's not a Sony franchise in any way. Maybe it's cause of that Vita game that's supposedly in development? Who knows. Still kinda strange. The rest are cool though.
Kinda surprised that I'm so excited by this game. Maybe if they do a PS3/Vita bundle for like $80 I'll pick it up, assuming I get around to getting a Vita this year.
Goddamn is Capcom hellbent on shoving him down everyone's throat, it doesn't help that every gaming site on the planet writes perpetual fluff pieces for that game.
"We've never played anything beyond the original BUT ITS TOTALLY LIKE ALL THE OTHER DMC'S EMBRACE IT YOU ENTITLED BABIES", even D-toid is guilty of this.
ya fuck games that dont take them selfs serious and have fun we need more gritty reboots of characters that say Fuck and write fuck you to be edgy
@Pencoin: I love original Dante. I hate emo. You still are a bit crazy about this, even for me. Hopefully we will get an alt costume of original douche Dante. Because yes, as John said, he was always a douche.
"Hey guys, you know dante from DMC?? Yeah that badass dude that was in 2 of the best Ps2 games (DMC1&3).. yeah well we are going to use the emo one".
Shitty list overall. I was expecting Spyro, Crash, Mabye amaterasu, people for FF (you don't even have to use the non-exclusive one... there is Tidus, Auron, Steiner, VIVI, etc).
The game is turning out to be nothing like what expected when I heard the idea of a "Sony Smash Bros"... I hope it launches at 40 bucks like the Vita game it is. I mean, it seems to have less charatcers, less items and lass stages than a 4 years old Wii game. And while brawls is still a great looking Wii games this one looks like a PSN game.
Evil Cole (Infamous) - We already have Cole, fuck that.
Nariko (Heavenly Sword) - No one cares about this character, fuck that.
Raiden (Metal Gear Solid)- Raiden is cool, hopefully it's the Rising/4 version. Unfortunately this game has way too many humanoid characters already.
Sackboy (LittleBigPlanet)- LBP sucks, fuck that.
Ratchet & Clank (Ratchet & Clank)- This series sucks, fuck that.
Sir Daniel Fortesque (MediEvil)- Never played it, but I'm happy to see something more obscure and less bland.
Spike (Ape Escape)- Cool, I like Ape Escape and it's not yet another bland humanoid character.
The only stage I see that looks decent is the Loco Roco one.
I mean, Activision owns Crash, right? I can't imagine them refusing to let Sony use him and I wouldn't even put it on Activision to be so low as to ask for some ridiculously stupid royalty fee per copy sold, either.
