    Could be interesting, but I hate the KO system and the stages are too busy.

    I'm pretty interested in seeing the rest of the characters. If a character from The Legend of Dragoon gets confirmed it'll definately boost my interests. I'm surprised to see Parappa the Rapper in it.

    Oh ho ho? A bunch of characters that new gamers won't recognize because Sony abandoned all of them? That's a great way to appeal to your core audience.

    Calling this an "All-star Brawler" is laughable.

    Yeah, who's ever heard of God of War or Killzone

    They've revealed six characters, and each is from a relatively well-known franchise (i.e.: Killzone, Twisted Metal, God of War, LittleBigPlanet, Uncharted, etc.), though Parapa might be stretching it, he definitely appeals to the older crowd.

    Saying these characters are abandoned or not well-known is laughable.

    Parapa The Rappa, Jak and Daxter, and Sly Cooper are not cherished or appreciated franchises, by Sony's current standards. Oh, and just because a character is well-known doesn't make them an All-Star, in my opinion. I mean, the Fat Princess? Really? Liked the game, but why THAT character?

    It just looks like a watered-down Smash Bros. and further supports my views that modern game development is trash. I see nothing that vaguely supports originality here and they're hopping on a bandwagon that Nintendo has, and probably will do better. I mean, why is Kratos wielding a spear and shield? Don't you want to do the signature moves of the franchise of your choice...? Sure, the special gauge may seem like it's "TOTALLY NEW" but it isn't.

    i think this doesnt look to bad. just not too big on the characters (due to not playing them on the game they was in)

    with seeing they said there would be third party characters....Sonic and Snake???

    Doesn't look too bad. I don't own a PS3, but I just hope this doesn't end up like bad Smash Bros. copies.
    Here are some of my suggestions for characters:

    - Cole Macgrath (Infamous series/PS3 Version of Street Fighter X Tekken)
    - Nathan Drake (Uncharted series)
    - Commander Shepard (Mass Effect series)
    - Zeus (God of War series)
    - Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid series)
    - Isaac Clarke (Dead Space series)
    - Crash Bandicoot
    - Sackboy (Little Big Planet series)
    - Ratchet w/ Clank (Rachet & Clank series)
    - Jak w/ Daxter (Jak and Daxter series)
    - Blob (de Blob 1+2)
    - Murray (Sly Cooper series)

    It looked pretty good but I really don't want to buy that PS move for it if I have to have that to play it. I would consider this game cause it reminds me of smash bro's.

    I think I'll pick this up. II played SSB-M-B, and they were great, so if this is really a KO, I'd love to play SSB with Sony Characters.

    Exactly! I want this game because a) I won't be buying a Wii U, so the next SSB won't be played by me and b) SSB is always fun, but I like Sony characters more, meaning I'm getting the best of both worlds.

    Also, the reason Kratos uses a spear and shield is because he uses them in Ghost of Sparta, if I remember correctly. I'm sure the Blades of Chaos will be his main weapons, but they had to give him more than those.

    I played through DreamMix TV World a while back. Despite being a shameless Smash Bros rip-off it was rather fun. Beating up Bomberman, Solid Snake, and Yugo the Wolf with G1 Megatron made up for the shallowness. I expect my feelings for this game to be the same.

    The move lists look rather fun especially Kratos pulling up virtually every weapon from his series. I just have a problem with the rather boring level designs.

    Something about seeing Playstation and All-Stars in the same sentence seems oxymoronic to me. I mean when you say Playstation, nothing jumps into mind as a flagship character.
