“If Disney won’t let Sora be in Smash, Disney won’t let him be in the Smash knockoff” …welp

"Please let that Avengers game be good!" That aged like milk.

Silent Hill would make a sick stage transition. Pick any other stage and have it become the Otherworld version.

This video takes aged so bad and so well at the same time that is astounding

Cortex and Nefarious together would be freaking amazing in any circumstance.

If I remember correctly, the devs of this game were gonna have good & evil Cole be the same character, with choices made during the match determining which route you went down. It was actually Sucker Punch who suggested making them separate characters.

Knack as Waluigi is genuinely brilliant and my respect for your marketing acumen has gone way up

If classic Dante and Raiden were in the same game I would absolutely hope they’d have a rival battle, you could say that with all the weird world mixing Dante assumes Raiden is some alternate version of Vergil and Raiden assumes Dante is somehow part of desperado, it really feels like a perfect matchup imo

I’ve never played Yakuza, so why did I get so happy when I saw Kiryu in this hypothetical roster?

Here's the problem with Kiryu: the director of that series, Toshihiro Nagoshi, said that he doesn't want Kiryu in Smash Bros. because Kiryu would never beat up a woman...kind of a problem if you had him in a roster with Heather Mason, Fat Princess, Aloy, etc. AND had his rival be Tifa. Instead, I say for Tifa's rival, you replace Kiryu with Goro Majima himself, or even get another kickass lady in there by putting in Nina Williams from Tekken

"Goro Majima, pouncing out at you, wearing a big foam Crash Bandicoot costume." That made me laugh.

I was with you until you said Toro shouldn't be in the roster. The literal mascot of Japanese PlayStation, should 100% still be in this game as a fighter. Just like smash Bros makes picks for both it's western and Japanese audience ( Hero from Dragon Quest, to Banjo.) You need those characters for both sides.

I would have included Astrobot! Rescue Mission was a cool game and he definitely is full of personality. I could see the watcher robot assisting from offscreen in his moveset.

I just imagine Kiryu giving dorky dad advice to every character including Kratos and Nathan Drake with people like Sweet tooth of course being the exception

For a character from a horror series, Leon Kennedy works very well as he's very action oriented and has been in lots of games. Lots of good picks, I would add: Raven (Gravity Rush) Dr Nefarious (Ratchet and Clank) Lara Croft (Tomb Raider) Atoi (Tearaway) Dart Feld (Legend of Dragoon) Wander (Shadow of the Colossus)

You know what would be cooler than Cortex and Nefarious teaming up with a Colossus? Cortex and Nefarious teaming up with a Colossus infused with the Clockwerk parts. You see, it works because they're both scientists

>"Toro would have been cooler if the roster hadn't been so small." >Is going to almost double the roster size. >Later in the video says a big problem with All-Stars was that it was very western-centric. *>Cuts Toro Anyway.*

I feel like Lara Croft would've been a better choice than Chloe, especially as a rival to Nathan Drake. And no Dart?

And now we know that it wasn't Disney that was keeping Sora from Smash, but rather Nemora who was worried about how Smash would fit into Sora's story. XD

i have an idea, what if? the Polygon Man has a backstory in-game where explains that after being rejected as the mascot for playstation he was going to be erased from existence, but manage to escape with that kind of energy we seen in the original all-stars battle royale, and with that kind of power with his anger and wishes for revenge he goes to the playstation multiverse to destroy the legacy of playstation with the idea that if he's not going to be the face of playstation, nobody can. and now with the fighters seeing their worlds being erased one by one they come on the journey where they have to find the way to stop whoever is behind all this and find the way to restore their universe in the way they were before.

I suppose i should let you in on some behind the scenes details about the roster to help you understand the reasons behind some of the roster choices When asked about why Crash wasn't in the game the lead directer of the game said "It takes two to tango" implying that they tried to get him in but Activision either didn't want him in or just most likely wanted an unreasonable amount of money for his rights, same can might be said for Spyro The reason why it's reboot Dante is because Capcom wanted it to promote the reboot and wouldn't let them use the classic design even for an alternate costume There are two Coles in the game because Sucker Punch, the Infamous creators, wanted it, most likely because Cole has different powers depending on how good or evil he is, Evil Cole was originally supposed to be an alt Big Daddy is in the game because the writer and director of BioShock, Ken Levine, went to the developers with the idea as soon as he heard about the game's development, he even wrote Big Daddy's story mode The developers wanted Snake in the game but Kojima wanted Raiden in instead, for reasons unknown They tried to get Lara Croft in the game but the Tomb Raider developers wanted their reboot version of Lara in their game before anything else The developers considered a Katamari Damacy character to be playable but couldn't think of how that would work Originally other option for the final boss was considered including Dr. Nefarious and the entire Helghan army The developers decided to use Polygon Man as the final boss because they wanted the player to feel like they were fighting PlayStation itself so they used the brands former mascot Six other playable characters were gonna be DLC but were cut after Sony stopped supporting the game, these characters are Dart from Legend of Dragoon, Abe from Oddworld, Ryu from Ninja Gaiden, Tomba from Tomba!, Sub-Zero from Mortal Kombat and Chun-Li from Street Fighter, Dart and Abe were near completion, Ryu and Tomba were in development and Chun-Li and Sub-Zero had only made it as far as the concept stage Also a stage based on Gravity Rush and Journey was gonna release alongside Dart and Abe All that plus the game was supposed to be entirely different, it was supposed to be a capture the flag game with each character being a archetype, possibly kinda like Overwatch before Overwatch was a thing, it would have even had 35 characters, but Sony changed it to compete with Smash and after that they sort of gave up on the project setting it up for failure Here's what the capture the flag version of the roster would have been i.redd.it/avzxr1v67mfz.png Sony also originally wanted Naughty Dog or Santa Monica Studios to develop the game but they were busy with their own projects, The Last of Us and God of War: Ascension respectively, so they built SuperBot from the ground up with a focus on team-members with experience in fighting games

Ok hear me out the final boss is... Bill Gates.

A sequel to Playstation All-Stars should have some representation of Sony's more obscure franchises like Tomba, Wild Arms, Puppeteer, and The Legend of Dragoon.

I’m just imagining Sony watching this video going “write that down” 😂😂

Dante vs Etna is fun and all, but I think Dante vs Raiden would be an amazing rival battle simply because it'd be Dante fighting a serious white haired katana user.

If street fighter II taught us anything it’s that fighters don’t really get good until the sequel.

As much as I love FF7 and Tifa I think Vivi Ornitier would’ve been a better 2nd PlayStation Final Fantasy rep. Not only representing another popular game but being completely different than Cloud in visuals and moveset

The fact that you said FF12 is underrated made me subscribe immediately, that’s my favorite in the series lol

Ideas for future Build the Roster episodes: 1) Nintendo vs Disney: possibility realism aside, considering these two companies have some of the most iconic characters in their respective mediums, and since they're basically the equivalents of each other, I think a crossover game between the two could be cool to theorize. You could just make it a Disney game if you want too. 2) If the first Smash Bros came out today: pretending the previous Smash Bros never existed, what would the roster of a Smash Bros game be like if it first came out this year (or next). 3) An indie game crossover fighter.

The only real issue I have with your list here is that you didn't include Delsin Rowe or Lara Croft.

You removed my cat. You are my mortal enemy now.

One of the most magical things Nintendo did with the Smash rosters was modernize potentially super obscure characters from their older games and japanese-only properties. Anybody else remember playing that Brave Fencer Musashi demo on a playstation demo disk waaaay back in the day? I think Musashi would be super sick in one of these games.

I... really feel like Delsin Rowe should've been in this roster somewhere.

You literally removed the Japanese mascot of PlayStation yet complain about how PSASBR had to few characters that would appeal to the Eastern audiance of PlayStation Great video though

Important to note reboot Dante and Evil Cole were insisted on by Capcom and Sucker Punch. If a new game was made, since the reboot universe got canned and DMC 4 happened, I imagine classic Dante is assured. As for Cole, the fact a lot people hated him taking up two slots might convince Sucker Punch to keep it to one character.

New Characters 36:18 Spyro (Spyro) 37:25 Crash Bandicoot (Crash Bandicoot) 38:43 Coco Bandicoot (Crash Bandicoot) 39:06 Chloe Frazer (Uncharted) 40:58 Captain Qwark (Ratchet & Clank) 43:04 Carmelita Fox (Sly Cooper) 44:40 Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy) 46:42 Tifa Lockheart (Final Fantasy) 49:33 Kiryu Kazuma (Yakuza) 51:53 Yu Narukami (Persona) 53:31 Elizabeth (Persona) 55:27 Aloy (Horizon: Zero Dawn) 56:35 Abe (OddWorld) 57:53 The Hunter (Bloodborne) 59:42 William (Nioh) 1:01:42 Jin Sakai (Ghost of Tsushima) 1:03:57 Heather Mason (Silent Hill) 1:08:26 Etna (Disgaea) 1:10:17 Ryu (Street Fighter) 1:12:00 Kratos & Atreus (God of War)

I'd keep Polygon Man (I like the idea of a villain with a motivation stemming from the real world) and have the Colossus be a "Giga-Bowser" type of character, where you'd fight it under unique conditions.

Did you intentionally psyche us out with Tifa over Sephiroth? Because I am confused and slightly disappointed lmfao.

So i'm the only one that cares about Raven from Gravity Rush? *P A I N*

As a Colonel Radec main, he should definitely return. He was an actually well crafted long range fighter.

The lack of Astrobot has me concerned.

I'd love to see a roster like this for a Microsoft equivalent... Characters owned by Microsoft like Master Chief, Fulgore, Steve from Minecraft, and then some neat guest characters too... could be fun!

The saddest part about PSABR being a flop was that the studio tried to pitch a new Rival Schools.

If Avengers flops then Disney'll pick up their toys again and nobody wants that" Uhhhhhh

Alright I’m only half an hour in, but I want to clarify that the “rumor” of Disney shitting down Sora in Smash was WIDELY misreported. The actual quote from the “leaker” makes it very clear that they are just speculating wildly, and that it’s not an actual rumor

This was pretty good. If you're taking suggestions for future episodes, then one I'd like to suggest is a potential sequel to Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion. Basically another mediocre Smash clone that could've been so much more.

this guy: I'm not going to put Toro since nobody knows him The same guy later: I'm going to put fat princess since it is the equivalent of ice climbers Xbox: Ah this sucks *buy crash and spyro ips*

It did hurt that Tomba didn't make the cut with your list. But I do have a couple personal choices that I feel would make good additions: Dart - Legend of Dragoon (Since he and Abe were supposed to be DLC in the first game.) Aya Brea - Parasite Eve Kain or Raziel - Legacy of Kain Serge or Lynx - Chrono Cross Rivet - Ratchet & Clank Klonoa - Klonoa Ashlay Riot - Vagrant Story Uriko - Bloody Roar

I love the fact that you specifically picture one character as a memetastic Waluigi non-pick. Of course the internet will probably end up using Tomba for that instead. He's got something about him that just screams "I bet he's more powerful than Goku and Shaggy Rogers combined".

Honestly,imagining all the rival interactions these characters could have is so hype

Just found this channel and I think I’ll be binging the “build the roster” series, definitely my kind of videos!

Disney the: "This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things" company.

I appreciate the effort and industry know-how that went into this video, but I've gotta STRONGLY disagree with your "I couldn't think of a moveset" argument against The Prince. Sakurai made a moveset for the dog that laughs at you if you miss in Duck Hunt. SOMEONE could make a clever moveset for The Prince. Also, if Lucasfilm could have an entire pre-Rise of Skywalker event in Fortnite that tied into the actual film itself, I think Marvel would let Spidey be a DLC character in a family-friendly fighting game like this. Especially knowing that it was being worked on by the same company that published Spider-Man PS4. And if THAT went over well, I could imagine Disney Japan loosening their grip on Sora. The rest of your video is some A++ stuff though. THIS is what PAS should've been at the very start.

I would like to see your new stage ideas for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale 2 for the next video.

"Please let that Avengers game be good" Oh dear. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear....

This video aged terribly considering Sora

Make a "Project X Zone: The Fighting Game" video Imagine the insanity of it all. 4 Companies duking it out with The 4 OCs from Namco x Capcom and Project X Zone 1, for any potential Story to Focus on. Capcom, Namco, SEGA, and Nintendo (since they were in PXZ2 in a limited capacity). For Nintendo just assume after they got a taste test in 2, they'd allow for a full bore inclusion on this... Project.

You know Thorgi, a while back Ed Boon of netherrealm studios said theyd had conversations about possibly using marvel characters in a future project... So maybe one of your future building the roster videos could be marvel vs dc made by netherrealm studios?

Sony really should reconsider doing a crossover honestly. It has potential and Nintendo could use some competition.

Oh god, the damn avengers game dropped the ball, we're in trouble

This was a nice roster, but here are some other characters I'd consider: Wander (Shadow of the Colossus) ICO Dr. Nefarious Cyber Errol Old Snake Jehuty (Zone of the Enders) Ava (Kinetica) Blasto Dart (Legend of Dragoon) Demi Fiend (SMT3) Lazarevic Jeanne (Jeanne D'Arc) Taon (Dark Cloud) Delsin Rowe (Infamous) Joel & Ellie Lara Croft

Thorgi: Having 2 characters who are clones is so stupid. Proceeds to put 2 Kratoses in the game anyway.

So about that avengers game...

56:41 - 57:53 I've actually been conceptualizing how Abe could work in a PASBR 2 before you posted this video, and an idea I've had for him is that he could be an indirect fighter not unlike Phoenix Wright of MvC3 Ultimate. Like, Abe would still attack with his slap and tossing grenades, but most of his other attacks would be manifesting hazards and enemies from Oddworld to harm the other fighters for him; pulling switches (that suddenly pop in front of him) to cause saw blades to slice ahead, arcs of electricity to appear on his left and right, or as showcased in the video drop a boulder from above. Another attack could probably have Abe "accidentally" alert a Slog (Oddworld's version of guard dogs), which would then leap at and attack whoever is in back of Abe. Things like that. Although looking into Munch's Odyssey, the Captain Olimar approach is actually quite feasible as that game had Abe commanding troops of Mudoken to fight his enemies. The problem with this, though, is that not only was Munch not as famous (nor good) as the first two Abe games but was Xbox exclusive, so not sure it would be the best source to utilize for Abe in a Playstation fighting game. But I suppose it's worth it for any kind of moveset. For Abe's Supers, though, they definitely have to be... *Level 1*- Abe summons a Popper Slig or a Scrab (random chance of either), who he promptly mind controls, and opens fire/charges at anyone directly ahead of him. Fun idea I have with this Super is that Abe and his summon would respond differently depending on the outcome: if the Super was successful in hitting/killing anyone, Abe and the Slig laugh at their foe's expense. Or if the Scrab is summoned, it does its victory dance. But if the Super fails to hit/kill anyone, Abe growls in anger while the Slig does the "BS" sound, and the Scrab roars to the sky (which they do if failing to kill Abe IIRC). *Level 2*- My initial idea for this is that Abe drinks a can of SoulStorm brew, farts, possesses his fart cloud, and has it float around the battlefield. After a set amount of time passes, or the player presses a designated button, the fart cloud explodes in a massive radius. Although, I had actually come up with an alternative (likely preferable) idea of Abe instead summoning and possessing a Flying Slig, which he would then have fly across the stage and bombard the other fighters with grenades. In either case, Abe possesses something that flies and explodes lol. *Level 3*- The battlefield suddenly becomes that of Monsaic Temple with Abe in the center surrounded by a crowd of Mudoken, all of whom doing spiritual chanting. Abe looks around unsure before chanting alongside his fellow Mudoken, upon which their spiritual energies are channeled into Abe and the blue Mudoken transforms into the demigod Shrykull, frying every single combatant with divine lightning.

I'm one of the 3 people who played the fat princess game religiously

Watching this after Sora made it into smash was entertaining! Lol

1:16:54 better yet, each character has their own "story mode," like in Skullgirls. A plot driven forward by rival battles.

Though what would have been hilarious to have as a rivalry out of the honorable mentions would have been Knack and Katamari Prince. I feel like I can make The Prince's move set work honestly. The mechanics for his character would be as follows: Square - Katamari Square: Katamari Spin Forward Square: Katamari Dash (tapping square repeatedly spins the Katamari faster and builds speed on the dash) Down Square: Katamari Bounce (flattens opponent) Up Square: Katamari Launch (Kicks the Katamari up at an angle - knocks opponent in the air) Square (In air): Arial Katamari Spin Forward Square (In air): Arial Katamari Dash Down Square (In air): Arial Katamari Bounce (Spikes opponent to the ground) Up Square (In air): Katamari Bash (kicks Katamari up at an angle - knocks opponent towards the wall) Triangle - Item Spawner Triangle: Small Objects (creates up to 5 small objects that can be rolled up to create a bigger Katamari, lose one item with each hit given/taken) Hold Triangle: Oblong Object (a long object will spawn, can be picked up and will make the Katamari roll off-balance and creates a long hit box but also slows down on upwards motion of the Katamari - gets knocked off [de-spawns] after hitting/getting hit by opponent or wall) Forward Triangle: Rat Trap (creates a rat trap that when touched, launches the Katamari forward quickly) Down Triangle: Human Object (creates a human from the game that will be knocked out when hit, launches in direction of hit and becomes a projectile, can be hit by opponent to hit back at The Prince) Up Triangle: Large Object (becomes a wall, cannot pick up, will roll the Katamari up and around the item to get around it while other characters must jump on or over the item) Triangle aerials (Same as the ground moves, spawns items on the ground) Circle - Launch Attacks (not sure how to name this one) Circle: Reversal (The Prince jumps over the Katamari and does a quick dash back) Forward Circle: Katamari Kick (sends the Katamari forward towards the wall, which then bounces off the wall back to The Prince) Down Circle: Counter (Katamari grows briefly and bounces character's attacks back like when the Katamari is of equal size to an object in game) Up Circle: Katamari Toss (throws the Katamari in an arc Throws: Left and Right Throw: Rollover (rolls over character and they get tossed off left or right) Up Throw: Toss off (Character gets knocked off as The Prince runs into a quickly placed large object that fades after hit) Down Throw: Katamari Crush (rolls character underneath and slams the Katamari down above the character stuck at the bottom Finishers Finisher 1: Rollup (Katamari grows in size, does a short dash and quickly rolls up anyone it hits) Finisher 2: Katamari March (Small swarm of Prince characters march through with Katamaris) Finisher 3: Kings Judgement (Characters appear rolled up on the Katamari in front of the king, Katamari then turns into a planet/constellations of the characters)

Oh shit this was created on my B-day? What a great gift! Humor aside I been wanting people to talk about PSASBR so much but every time I mention the discussion to smash. Hell smash recently put joker in and I was sad cause that means if he appeared in PSTABR they'd say "Oh it's just a smash clone." So I'm gonna list a few changes I make to the series that could spark discussion! 1.If I had to change the series first the title needs to change to something more recognizable. 2. the battle system could change to a MVC life bars and multiple specials.(say what you will about current MVC but they put alot of care into how the characters move and what they could do.) 3, People need to be more lenient on how much cash they have as a creator so when they can't afford crash. (like PSAS asked for cloud and was outright denied, smash asked and got it easily and even square's SSN and first borns) 4. I(Let's say they had lucky and got the cash .) Well to generate interest there would be DLC and every other character+music/stage combo would have one free dlc character. 5. Dissidia like talk intros to each character What do you think thus far?

i'd love for Jin Sakai to be added. a true ninja in just about every sense of the word and as real as you can get.

I FREAKING LOVED THIS GAME, am I the only one that FREAKING LOVED THIS GAME

There's something I think that could solve the two Coles thing in a possible sequel: Let both be in, but as a single character. They could add some sort of gimmick where, depending on which attacks he uses, a Karma Bar starts building towards a Good side and a Evil side, and when it reaches the max on either one, it turns Cole into either his Hero or his Villain form, giving him different movesets, just like in the original game. I love InFamous, so I think this would be the best way to implement that crucial part of the game into his playstyle

Been holding my breath waiting for Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn the entire video, now I have brain damage. Still worth it. Also, not sure how much this would work as a "Rival Battle", but I'd love to see Aloy interacting with Atreus and have them both poke fun at Kratos for being grumpy and unfun. That's would be the best thing ever! X3 Also, as far as naming this game goes, why not just shorten it to Playstation Rumble or something?

To be honest, i like your roster, but you shifted your attention to the third party side of the console too much, so, i'll add mine: -Dart (Legend of Dragoon) -Raven (Gravity Rush) -Astrobot (Same fucking name) -Fetch (inFAMOUS) -Knack (i know you wanted to make him the Waluigi of this game BUT, the difference is that Knack has a moveset, he saved the world with two punches and one kick) -Joel (The Last of Us but only the first game, let's pretend the second one never existed) -Lammy (Parappa the Rapper) -Iota and Atoy (Terraway) -Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami (King of Fighters. I want them here because, if Tekken got Geese and Smash got Terry, then why not someone from KOF? They could even face each other in the rival battles) -Toro Inoue (Yes, i know you cut him but listen, you complain about the big focus on the western side of the brand but you cut Toro, a japanise mascot, from the roster. Being Sony, they won't cut him from the game at all, especially considering that he was the first option for DLC in Street Fighter X Tekken) -A custom character (i took the idea of PlayStation Home, the difference from the Miis is that there would be no classes, the playstyle is depending on the weapon you choose) This time, to make this game stand out more, let's change the gameplay to a tradicional fighting game, it makes more sense than having realistic humans bouncing around the screen, if they want to keep 4 players on the screen, make it 2v2 or 3v3 like Marvel Vs Capcom. The question is, what this game would do differently? Bring back the stage collision but also have the option to disable it for players who want a classic experience. For the story, because the rule for PlayStation is having some kind of narrative, i would take the narrative of Rift Appart. To resume, Nefarious tries to use the Dimensionator on Ratchet and Clank until Ratchet stupidly shoots it, causing masive chaos. Over time, this affects other PlayStation worlds and those heroes have to find out what's going on, simple stuff. Here, they will be divided on different groups depending on their similarities, for example, Kratos, Jin, the hunter and Aloy would conform one group, Ratchet, Jak and Sly Cooper would conform another, etc. Nefarious would be the base boss but a new face (or well, old face) would be joining, the rifts reach to a sealed dimension long ago which is where Polygon Man resides, but this time, he has a body instead of just being a head. To end this, not everyone hated this game, the most hate came from the close minded Smash fanboys who don't know the brawler sub-genre is even a thing, All-Stars wasn't good but it wasn't bad either and many people is begging for a continuation, who knows, i would even go to Sony to propose my idea.

The Toro and Radec cuts were big oofs from me, my guy

Sakurai explained in one of his latest videos that in order for each character in Smash to look and feel like they belong in just about any environment, they had to blend in realistic details for some characters while simplifying the details for others to make the franchise not look like it’s cartoon vs. live-action

1:14:58 I disagree. I think I’d be fun for Elizabeth and Yu to interact with people outside there series. Elizabeth has already fought Yu on four different occasions in persona 4 arena, blazblue cross tag battle, persona q, and q2. I would like the see Elizabeth have fight with someone else. Edit: I’d be nice to see Yu go up against Dante. Wouldn’t be the first time a mega ten character and Dante square up.

I've seen a lot of dream rosters of Playstation Allstars and its rumored sequel but if I can combine all the roster ideas then it would be like smash ultimate if these roster builds for their names had already existed

1:07:25 A bloody Pyramid Head to come stumbling up to Heather with a long rusty blade, ready to slash her from behind only for her to turn around and blast it, turning it into a cartoony sheep that bounces away... I NEED this in my life.

There can be a Persona item where if a character holds the Arcana card, they will shout, "PERSONA!" A custom P3/P4 cut-in of the characters face will flash on-screen, and they will summon a random Persona like Jack Frost or Jack-O-Lantern. The custom cut-ins will be made by the Persona artist himself, Shigenori Soejima.

You compared it to Smash way too much and you complain about how there's no Japanese characters yet cut out Toro and not include Tomba, Knack, Dart, AstroBot and so on.

To quote the wize words of Mr Findley: HELL, ITS ABOUT TIME

Bring back Toro, that cat is awesome and Radec was my main.

Greek Saga Kratos and New Kratos being rivals would be so fitting given the recent Valhala DLC i can imagine him quoting his monologue from the end of the Valhala DLC as a victory line, it would be so epic

Three Build the Roster Videos I would want: Cartoon Network Punchtime Explosion 2 (Just one request: Billy and Mandy have to become separate characters at least.) Nickelodeon Fracas Fun. Disney's Duelling Dance.

I swear I just got a cool idea for Abe So, Snake has his codecs to where he has a talk with his fellow comrades, like Otacon, Mei Ling and Colonel Roy Campbell to talk about the fighters of smash that Snake is up against So what if they do that with Abe except instead of Abe talking to somebody. It’s instead a news cast from M.O.M (Magog on the Marge) from Abe’s Exoddus with a Slig detailing on some of the fighters. Hell, if villains are gonna be added (which might be a doubt idk) we could have the Slig talk about the villain but then the screen turns static and it transitions into a Glukkon (Possibly Molluck, Commander Dripig, V.P Aslik, or Dir. Phleg) giving their own thoughts about the villain in question. That’s just my idea though

*Looks at Sora in the honorable mentions* Boy, did that not age well.

Actually, you're wrong about Snake. It was actually Cloud Strife that was the hardest to bring back to Smash. If Smash had a hard time bringing Smash, then PSAS doesn't have a chance.

I feel like the two Coles in the game actually makes sense from how the developers explain it. A big part of the Infamous series is how you can push the main character into either a superhero or a supervillain. So in order to represent that two characters were needed. Although now how I would do it is that Cole will represent the good path while the main character of Second Son will represent the evil path. Also man if it wasn’t for Etna I would’ve used Valvatorez instead to specifically be Yu Narukami’s rival. Also also I feel like Dart from Legend of Dragoon should be in the roster as well. Not only because he was going to be DLC in the original game with Abe but there also needs to be more JRPG reps in the game.

Tomba was considered in the scrapped DLC for the original game along with the Dart from legend of dragoon. I would want both in along with Gabe Logan from siphon filter, relevancy to modern generations be damned. I also hear that Chun-li was in consideration along with a Ryu Hayabusa. I also think that Delsein Rowe would be a nice trade out for Evil Cole and I think this new Lombax in the ipcoming Ratchet has potential. I see your point with Quark, but would honestly prefer her or Nefarious.

I was not expecting Disgaea or Etna on this list, but it makes me super happy to see the BEST JRPG series represented.

"please let that Avengers game be good" - it was not good

I hope you let Kat from Gravity Rush return. I know this is just a fan-roster, and that GR is pretty niche, but it was my favorite game represented in the first PSASBR, and she had some of the funnest gameplay imho. EDIT: now that you did have her in (thanks, btw), I think you could’ve had a more interesting idea for her rivalry with Fat Princess. The second game had a running joke of Kat being really into food, and she’s technically a queen (albeit and amnesiac one), so she has more in common with FP than you gave her credit for. And on the subject of her rival, an interesting second rival for Kat would be Cole in a battle of electromagnetism vs gravity. She could also have a good echo fighter in the form of Raven, but I understand why you didn’t add her: not really a big enough franchise for two reps.

WE NEVER FORGOT THIS GAME EXISTS

The format is good and it's a very interesting video, well made video. We'd all make a few changes but that's part of the fun

Personally I'd love to see some kind of attempt at another big Playstation crossover game. Playstation Move Heroes was... a game that exists... and Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale was... also a game that exists... yeah playstation definitely needs an actually great crossover game

Captian Qwark is one of the funniest Characters in Gaming History.

Here are my thoughts: "10% of the population wants Knack but the other 80% doesn't mind not having Knack" Yet you assume 80% of the planet want Coco, Tifa, Etna, Chloe and Kratos 2: Eletric Boogaloo included. "Radec is too generic" Yet there are a bunch of Sword Users. "Too Western-focused" Yet you cut Toro, Sony Japan's LITERAL mascot. Only 1 character in this lineup is supposed to be for Japan (Etna). "The Last Of Us is too dark" So is Bloodborne. So is God of War. So is Nioh. So is Ghost of Tsushima. So is Devil May Cry (eh, to a degree) yet they're all in. Though, this has to be my favorite roster. I don't agree with your choices, but the love for this is impressive.

Sora didn’t age well

dude fr bamboozled us with sephiroth only for tifa to show up & kick him
