Huh. You know, I don't know that I'm as excited about this as I would be about some news on the next Smash Brothers. I guess, in my mind, Nintendo just has a more interesting line up.

She's the PS All-Star answer to Kirby.

Already seeing some undeserved personalities. Fat Princess...Killzone, ugh. These types of games are supposed to have legendary line ups.

Nathan Drake and Sackboy seem like obvious should-have-been-announced before some of these. And I haven't bought a new game in about a year. Not exactly the best way to build hype. |

I don't think Sony has a large enough cast of iconic and beloved characters to justify a game like this, but I can think of plenty that are missing. Where's Jak and Daxter? Ratchet and Clank? Wouldn't Cole McGrath be a shoe-in for Sony's answer to Pikachu? All far more deserving of headliner status than Fat Princess and Guy From Killzone.

My impression is that Sony has so many games that even if they also have some iconic characters amongst them, those characters' iconic-ness is heavily diluted in gamers' minds.

If anyone's ever been to Disneyworld and seen "Fantasmic" (that enormous live action stunt show that's basically a celebration of every Disney movie/character/story ever created), imagine if DreamWorks made their own version of that, and that's pretty much what this game looks like to me.

Meh, I think I'll pass. Sony's characters work great on their own, but together they're much too motley. I enjoy the Smash Bros. games because Nintendo's characters have not only the aforementioned nostalgia factor, but they're all pretty even in terms of game atmosphere. One game is not significantly darker than the other. To me, it's just doesn't work having Kratos in the same game with Fat Princess. Their games are far too different, and their atmospheres are practically polar opposite.

I'll get this if Ethan Mars is playable and you can beat your opponents by yelling "JAAAAAAAY-SOOOOOOOON"

This would probably work better if Sony held on to their franchises across generations. How many Sony characters have appeared on all three PlayStations?

Genj is right. If that happen, I will also pledge to buy it. But I will only play Ethan Mars.

Actually, I think they should make the balloon the playable character. It played a pivotal role and I bet its floating ability would come in handy.
