Color me suprised but the reviews are really positive. Didn't expected that considering the mocking and animosity that everyone had for this game.
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=500618 Not that it really matters to me but I am still happy. With Sony's shitty advertising the game needs good word of mouth and reviews to sell because I want my sequel. |

Whether it's original or fun or not, the fact is that it has plenty of iconic characters people will remember. Except... you know, using DmC Dante's model instead of the Dante that has been there for 4 DMC games. But hey, no one ever said it was perfect! |

And people hate the roster. About every review complains or remarks the same things: roster and presentation. It didn't get the good scores on nostalgia alone. |

And after reading some of the reviews that were linked, all I'm getting is that the game is a solid party fighter. I don't see complaints that the roster is bad, but that it's lacking, which is a difference. The reviews praise the fact that the characters there retain unique moves that come from their own game. The roster being lacking just comes from that fact that the characters are less "iconic" than Nintendo's cast. |

Problem is Ike belongs to Nintendo. So there is no problem of using the old (and better) model of Ike. Dante is third party. All Superbot can say is we want Dante. Capcom decides which model they have to use. In this case they said Dino. Sony or SB can't say anything. They can't force Capcom to use the old one. I fully blame Capcom for that reboot shitface and partly Sony for letting this marketing happen but not Superbot.
Yes I should have worded better. Reviewers don't say the roster bad just unsatisfying. The main main first party choices are really good and very well implemented. But the omission of any Sony JRPG and other first party request is baffling. And the third party choices are also meh but I know that it is not in Superbots hands when publisher doesn't want or asks too much. And the iconic crap is bullshit imo. Almost every of the first party choices are iconic or from a million seller franchise. Yeah they are not Mario or Zelda level but how many are? |

In the case of the problem with the roster, I could see two reasons why it could be a problem:
1. Whereas Smash Brothers had a number of characters that needed to be unlocked (with quite a number of characters that need to be unlocked in Brawl), pretty much all the fighters on the disc in PS All-Stars are available from the get go. 2. There's a number of franchises missing from the game that I'm sure some players would have loved to have seen be playable here. Luckily, this game will be getting DLC characters, so you can probably expect the roster lineup to grow somewhat throughout 2013 (although the big question will be how many more besides the two that have been announced so far).

Well for the one or two people that are interested we have pictures and infos on Kat and Emmett. http://www.polygon.com/2012/12/4/372...sh-dlc-preview

Kat, Emmett and the new stage will be released in early 2013. Kat and Emmett will be free DLC for the first two weeks and after that most likely become paid DLC. Superbot are still uncertain about the stage. Last edited by defki; 2012-12-04 at 14:31. |

Pretty much yes (as much as my inner Kat fanboy screams no). If they pull it right Emmett could be the most interesting character.
Edit: Omar also confirmed that there will be more DLC in 2013 Last edited by defki; 2012-12-04 at 14:11. |
