Too bad they turned Dan into a huge slow character that controls like a tank.

See, that's what I don't get; if they're going to use third party characters, couldn't they at least use Spyro and Crash, who, while third party characters now, were once exclusively associated with the Playstation brand name?

So, I've been playing this for about a day now and it's already pissing me off. Just about everyone has a weight like a ton of bricks, so they're all slow as shit and barely get any height from jumping. Only exception so far is Spike, possibly Jak and Ratchet, too.

The CPU players also gang up on human players to a much more ridiculous degree than Smash Bros. to the point where they'll ignore each other and travel all the way to the other end of the stage to beat the shit out of you.

Nathan Drake and Nariko are fucking irritating when played by the CPU. Drake will cower behind his wall cover half of the time, which effectively makes him invincible. And Nariko will just keep dragging you around the field and yanking you closer the moment you get too far away. As for getting points, since you have to Super everyone's asses to get points, it feels like you're barely doing anything worthwhile with normal attacks, which I guess is the point, but it's boring and irritating. And really stupid.

Then you have the fucking tutorials. These guys have no fucking idea what "combo" means. I'm trying to complete Fat Princess' combo tutorial and I'm stuck on the second to last combo. What you have to do is jump, do a forward Square attack, land and jump again to do a forward Triangle attack, all before the CPU recovers from the first hit. THAT'S NOT A FUCKING COMBO.

Really, half of the roster is just fucking retard city. Only good ones are Raiden, Sackboy and Spike. Haven't played as Ratchet and Jak much, though. Haven't been able to play online, either, because Sony's servers hate my Internet set up and won't connect to any matches they find.

There are a few good points, but they're extremely minor and overshadowed by the ridiculously bullshit aspects of this game.

I'm actually having a lot of fun with the game myself :> The supers only rule really keeps it from just being sony smash bros. Although I will never stop calling it that.

Also, add me luffy, we can fight each other! SandieSandwich :>

I believe I already have you on my PSN friend list, Sandie. Or have you switched to a new one recently?

I knew it.

Although I still don't have any applicable consoles so I'm just going to have to hypocritically take someone else's word for it ;)

The avatar you have right now, while I read that last post is incredibly appropriate. XD

For all two of you who got this, you're getting two DLC characters and a patch that balances the shit out of the currently existing roster.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Isaac could look better... Zeus looks like a badass. I think they're really reaching at the bottom of the barrel though, he's not even an exclusive.... but that's ok.

Zeus is; he's only in God of War, which is PlayStation exclusive.

Isaac is the multiplatform dude, but shit, don't fuck with the Plasma Cutter.

I don't get why they continuously dump third party characters when they have a ton more first party characters to work with.

Adding Isaac in after EA more or less sent the franchise to an unceremonious death feels like a punch in the dick, thinking about it now.

I'm trying to think of other first party games Sony has that haven't already been used and I'm completely drawing a blank. I feel that I've definitely missed one or two, but I'm not familiar with any of them. I'm having a hard enough time right now trying to separate the third party PlayStation exclusives from the actual Sony-owned stuff.

I think all they have left is racing. And that just won't work here.

I'm running into the exact same problem coming up with first-party exclusives. Isn't Sony kinda lacking in that department despite having so many third-party exclusives?
