Phase 3

Feels Good Man
Every single game that has attempted to remain within the realm of smash gameplay but distance itself ever-so-slightly has failed miserably. Hell, according to most players even the last Smash Bros. game failed miserably. I don't really expect this game to be remotely competitive; however, I do hope it's at least a fun game.

I'm not really into the Playstation characters all that much, but if there are 3rd party characters I can hope for one guy to save the roster...



He was in the Sony commercial that featured a bunch of different characters, so here's hoping. Stasis and Kinesis would be too much fun.
 
Don't really see what could be controversial about it. It's not as if this will be the first time an idea has been copied.

The only problem with this that I can see, is that it probably will not sell as many copies as something like Smash Brothers unless they can borrow popular characters from other series' and put them in this one.
 
I will play this.

I actually like the Smash Bros. series, so this sort of appeals to me.

Hopefully they make some good maps and balance is a design goal.
