Just watched the evo panel from the twitch archives, I was already excited but it just made me even more excited. Was hoping to see Ryu instead of Heihachi because I’m a street fighter player, hopefully one of Toros stances is shoto, look forward to hearing more about those stances. The rivalry clip was awesome and excites me for the single player mode which I usually just skip in a fighting game. Also loves you guys addressing major complaints like no life bars or the smash bros. comparisons/complaints. I get it and am excited about the unique things this game is introducing but I know a lot of people are more skeptical about it. I’ve had a hard time convincing people why this game is gonna be amazing but your panel did a good job of that! excited to see more of this and already pre-ordered my copy.

Yeah Toro is a beast. One of the guys here at the office has a really impressive Toro. That level 2 super is dangerous!

Yo! What’s up Playstation Blog!?

I hope you guys enjoyed our character/stage reveals the past weekend. EVO was crazy! Big thanks to everyone who came out to support and play Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale. We received a ton of valuable feedback from players all weekend long, and it was sick to see people finally getting their hands on Heihachi and Toro for the first time on Saturday.

Speaking of Saturday, we had a panel discussion regarding the game complete with a Q&A and videos. In case you missed it, we’ll be uploading a few of the videos from the panel on our Youtube page shortly. This includes our first combo video, which got a great response at the panel. Glad people enjoyed it.

Don’t forget to check us out this weekend at Comic-Con! We’re doing a few more character reveals (!) and another panel. If you plan on attending Comic-Con, our panel is on Sunday, July 15 (11am to 12pm) – Room 24ABC. SuperBots that will be on the panel include Chan Park (SuperBot President) and Omar Kendall (Game Director), with Greg Miller moderating.

Hope to see you guys there!

And I don’t like the look of Toro and Heihachi’s Tier 3 super. Killing the whole screen for a cinematic experience isn’t something I like (Unless it had been implemented from the start, in which case it would be fine). They can still be awesome and be in the battle (Look at Sweet Tooth!), and it makes it possible to get more kills than “Okay, you’ve built up your meter to 3. Here’s three kills.” I seriously hope that that is changed, before even more characters end up like that.

Why couldn’t Heihachi launch a rocket at a portion of the screen to explode instead? Or why couldn’t Toro Inoue charge in-game? It takes the level of strategy and skill from choosing carefully where to use your moves away, IMO. Please fix this Superbot, because I’m certain that watching those cinematics will eventually get old (Okay, I get it, could you hurry up and kill me?), while seeing Sweet Tooth transform into the mecha (Oh dang! Run! RUN!) most likely won’t, as the action of the players is included in it, and it is much shorter.

Sorry for the double post, but there is no edit button.

I’m slightly worried about the melee in this game. We need at least one more character like Colonel Radec and more mixed characters, because right now I feel as if at least 75% of them focus on melee.

And I honestly can’t wait for tomorrow (Thursday). Congratulations, PSASBR, you’ve stolen my attention (And soon my money :P). Here’s to hoping that Caesar from White Knight Chronicles and Cole MacGrath from InFamous are revealed.
Caesar because, though he is melee, he’d be somewhat unique due to his spear (And it’d save the developers from having to choose which weapon Leonard would be wielding), and he is still a knight. The only problem I can see is that he isn’t really an All-Star, Leonard is.
If you really need me to explain why Cole MacGrath needs to be in this, then you’re out of your mind. One of the most unique PS3-Exclusive characters ever. I just hope that he DOESN’T have the amp normally, instead summoning it for a special (And an Ionic move as the final), and is focussed on a mid-ranged basis, in order to balance the melee a little.

And please reveal a new stage. I crave them just as much as characters, and I still want to see a Castle That Never Was stage from Kingdom Hearts.
