Beta64 - PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale / Title Fight [NEVER BEFORE SEEN PROTOTYPE]

[@Beta64]

So, if Sony ever made a sequel to PSASBR, who would you want to see in the game?? And hey, if you want to watch more Beta64, you can check out my new-ish video on Super Mario Galaxy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZSZYY2Im7h8n6M

Here's my take on a new Playstation Crossover Fighter 1. Kratos 2. Sweet Tooth 3. Aloy 4. Parappa 5. Toro Inoue 6. Crash Bandicoot 7. Spyro 8. Ratchet & Clank 9. Jak & Daxter 10. Sly Cooper 11. Nathan Drake 12. Kat 13. Dart Feld 14. Cloud Strife 15. Rudy Roughnight 16. Dante 17. Sir Daniel Fortesque 18. Spike 19. Sackboy 20. Heihachi Mishima 21. Leon S. Kennedy 22. Nightmare 23. Jin Sakai 24. Scorpion 25. Tomba 26. Ellen (Folklore) 27. William Adams (Nioh) 28. Yharnam Hunter 29. Joker/Yu Narukami/Makoto Yuki 30. Jaster Rogue 31. Kazuma Kiryu 32. 2B 33. Lara Croft 34. Panda King 35. Cole Macgrath 36. Delsin Rowe as for Joker/Yu/Makoto, they're less DQ Hero and more like Triborg from MKX, three different movesets with only one Super shared among them, the Super in question being the All-Out Attack, meanwhile their Level 1s and 3s are different, the reasoning for all three is cause Sakurai decided to rep all 3 Persona games in Mementos via Music/Motifs so I would like Sony to do something similar just with the way I proposed it.

[@Arcademan09]

I've told this numerous times that the biggest reason this game failed is because of Sony. No budget, not willing to help them with fan requested IPs and the fact that they dropped the studio *they formed* definitely shows how little of a shit they actually gave about the game

[@ditto6533]

Yep. Superbot really had it rough. From being mistreated and betrayed by Sony to being mocked by the Smash community, it really must have sucked to be them.

[@MrAzimuth24]

These facts alone are the reason I think Sony should outsource a new crossover game to either Dimps, Eighting, or Arc System Works in the event that they finally decide to do another one as maybe a PS5 Launch Title.

[@L1ght_7]

This game was released right around the same time that Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time was released and guess what? They did the exact same thing to Sanzaru Games. They basically gave it no advertising and no help for pretty much anything related to that game and then wondered why it never sold well enough to warrant a sequel. At least it was bundled with the PSTV and that sold well... Oh, wait--it didn't, and Sony stopped supporting that project after a little while too. This entire era was just bad on Sony's part.

[@MrAzimuth24]

@@Capnbritish All the more reason why I'm so fucking desperate for a proper Playstation Crossover that harkens back to the previous Gens, complete with all the characters it needs

[@ShoXwavee]

Well the hate it got from Nintendo fanboys was another reason. The whole "Smash clone ripoff" and whatnot

[@eggheadcobra]

You know what the worst part is? It's not like Superbot Entertainment DIDN'T try to bring in highly requested characters, but couldn't due to agreement and licensing issues. - Snake was excluded because Hideo Kojima was concerned people would be confused about Snake being in 2 different brawlers. We got Raiden instead. - Lara Croft was excluded because Crystal Dynamics wanted to wait until the release of the Tomb Raider reboot to see what would happen. - Wander from Shadow of the Colossus was excluded because Team ICO didn't like the idea of Wander being in a crossover fighting game. - The original Dante was excluded because Capcom wanted to promote DmC: Devil May Cry. We got DmC Dante instead. - Crash and Spyro were excluded because Activision asked for too much money in return (As expected from such a greedy company). Superbot openly acknowledged the large demand for these characters, and it's sad knowing of how hard they tried. But why were Big Daddy and Isaac Clarke included? I have no idea. Anyone knows?

[@dragondelsur5156]

Big Daddy was included because the company that made Bioshock (i forgot the name) helped with some of the funding.

[@Al0neStillAlive]

Smash works because Nintendo actually made all those games 1st party, this game didn't because Sony isn't really much of an actual game development company than one that sells hardware and occasionally pays for things to be exclusive.

[@REDRatchet]

Yeah I believe Big Daddy was included because originally there was going to be an exclusive Bioshock for the PS Vita but it got cancelled??? So my main guess is Big Daddy was originally put in to promote that exclusive Bioshock game

[@isaaccooper862]

From what I can remember, there was supposed to be a Bioshock remake coming to the PS3 (or was it Vita?), and Sony decided to capitalize on that by adding him to the roster. I also believe at the time AllStars came out, either Dead Space 2 or 3 was recently released/ had soon to be released. You can see a pattern here: Sony decided to use the game to market only characters to advertise titles soon to be released/ just recently released.

[@audoodle9963]

That reasoning for snake seems a bit weird. Part of me wonders if it was because Kojima wanted to see Raiden in a fighting game personally and have some more variety. Or maybe he thought Nintendo wouldn’t bring snake back into smash if he showed up in a Sony crossover game like this (he didn’t show up in Wii U anyway but)

[@kylewood4488-b9r]

Smash has had 3 successful games by then and the fact that this series literally helped revive multiple game series also took into account how influential Sakurai is with his work. Earthbound, Fire Emblem and Kid Icarus wouldn't be known by most people without Smash or Sakurai.

[@annoyingfrenzy3493]

@Just Squid I disagree on Earthbound. That game sold terribly in the west, to the point where it wasn't even released in Europe even though It did pretty well in Japan from what I can tell. It was considered a failure by Nintendo, hence why we in the west never got Mother 3 ported. If it wasn't for Ness in Smash Bros, a lot fewer people would actually know and/or care about that franchise.

@@SirBlackReeds Sony has a history of spending far more money on Games than Nintendo, so the money part wasn't really an issue.

Man, I always thought of this game as "the Sony Smash Bros" , the "Poor Man's Smash" . But after hearing that the developers actually put a lot of effort in this game, while Sony didn't care, it gives me a lot more appreciation for it. Hearing some of the ideas for it, it sounded really cool, and it could have been one of the few Smash clones to actually be good. If Sony had tried to make more negotiations with other IPs, and helped fund the game, this could have been awesome! Sadly, it couldn't have come to be... a sequel would've been cool, too.

[@SirBlackReeds]

Or did they? After all, even the devs themselves couldn't agree on what Sony's faults were.

[@scarrantsandreviews]

This is actually the game I want the most from PlayStation. It wasn't as good as Smash Bros. A sequel likely wouldn't be either. Who cares? There are 100 open-world action games. They don't all need to be the best in the genre to justify thier existence. Why should PlayStation All-Stars 2 happen? Because there are a shit-ton of iconic Sony characters who will never bein Smash. And Smash isn't going to have the resources to put every deserving third-party character in their game either. This game has the potential to be great. Sony just needs to treat it like a AAA release. They clearly didn't with the first one.

My heart truly goes out to everyone at SuperBot that help make this game, especially after release when they were working on DLC and trying to make the game better. I was one of those folks who originally didn't like it much, even after playing it on both PS3 and PSvita (thanks to both of my brothers for letting me play it on both systems, by the way). But over the years, it really grew on me so much so that after I decided to buy myself a PSvita Slim in 2019, this was one of the games that I wanted to get for it and to my surprise, I can see why this game still has a fanbase and why many others, myself included, would love to see a sequel someday. This game, just like the PSvita itself (now thinking about it), didn't deserve the treatment that Sony gave it, which was pretty much "let's make something cool that has a lot of potential, but if it doesn't do well...like at all, let's not do anything to help the product sell well, just drop it, and completely move on from said product without thinking twice." I'm hoping this game gets a true sequel someday because there's just a lot of potential sitting here and this is coming from a Nintendo fan that prefers Smash over PS All-Stars (although I'm a PlayStation fan, as well.)

[@fionna_cool_girl]

Honestly I was pretty happy with how the game turned out and loved it a lot as a kid. Without it, I never would've fallen in love with the Sly Cooper, Jak and Daxter, and Ratchet and Clank games

[@HollowSleep]

Playstation Allstars Battle Royale is the PERFECT example of an "Over-Hated" game. This was before Smash was effectively finished as a franchise (At least for the time being) and the world was a LITTLE MORE ACCEPTING of "Smash-likes". Before the game even dropped, I distinctly and specifically remember how much hate it accrued for simply TRYING to exist. You couldn't go to reveal or promotional trailers online without the comments being FILLED with livid comments from Smash fans denouncing it as a "Smash clone" and deriding it from the top down. But then the game came out, and it DIDN'T play a whole lot like Smash; it had built in combos and strings and actively encouraged somewhat of a facilitated "Competitive" element (I put this in quotes because in the dev's own words, they WANTED it to be competitive), didn't rely on Ring-Outs as a method for defeating the opponent, Items and stage gimmicks were a little more nuanced and utility centric and its control scheme was not as intuitive as you'd think it would be. None of that mattered though, people went INTO the game expecting it to play like Smash due to their criticisms of it being a "Smash clone" and were ultimately disappointed when it DIDN'T play enough like Smash. It was incredibly frustrating for someone who JUST wanted to playa Brawler with Playstation Characters and didn't CARE about any of that or that it was a B-Tier game. But that wasn't enough, because in the background of this you had the other debates about its roster, people whining and moaning about Crash and Spyro not being present. Well, they TRIED. The devs were sweating in the background to get these IP's and people kept shutting the doors on them, and Sony was not backing them either. They were out in the wild with a game literally carrying the name "Playstation" in its title but NO ONE was willing to help them outside of the handful of IP's they did acquire. Had the game not been roasted from the start and been allowed to accumulate a fanbase, it could have potentially secured some of those IP's. It might have GOTTEN a sequel that would have allowed them to followup on their original ideas but with more support from Sony. But none of that happened. The entire thing was a passion project that everyone collectively turned their back on then gawked at its failure. And the people who actually ENJOYED the game or JUST wanted a Playstation Brawler were cucked. Right idea, wrong time. I don't think PAS is coming back. It was too negatively controversial and people crapped on the poor thing too hard. Sony looks back at this thing with shame and supporting a sequel is just going to be seen as a huge financial risk. I've love for it to return, but I have no faith in that happening. (Original comment made by @Impalingthorn on Tactical Bacon Productions: We Need A New PlayStation All-Stars Game video)

My friends and I just all wanted another Smash Bros type game, we were pretty excited for this one. Then it came out and once we realized NOTHING MATTERS but who can hit with a super, and that it was really all about picking the characters with the most OP supers and just slurping up orbs, that the combat was meaningless, we all lost interest.

[@Mr.Foxhat]

Well the combos did matter to an extent. If you landed a combo while having a super, then you could guarantee a kill. Aside from that though, I agree. The main issue with this combat system is that it was too repetitive. It was always both players throwing projectiles and then doing the same combo over and over in order to build up AP, and then repeat to get a KO. If they had just done it like other fighting games (or even Smash) it would have led to more variation in combat scenarios and matchups.

[@blekiscooler]

The most recent game PaRappa has been in is PS All-Stars. I hope we get PaRappa 3 or Lammy 2.

[@ChristopherMoom]

1:15 I can't believe you'd disrespect the *_Kirby series_* with this image edit

[@darniusstudios5139]

Kirby will bestow the souls of beings he destroyed on him.

[@reesecates8620]

More importantly, why did Beta 64 even PUT fortnite in there?

[@juaneste4640]

It was in reference that 'Playstation All Stars Battle Royale' has 'Battle Royale' in the name, something 'certain' popular online multiplayer games are being called with that name.

[@darniusstudios5139]

Juaneste The thing is, it was the Kirby Battle Royale logo, fortnite has became hated.

[@juaneste4640]

Oh. Well, I guess he made that joke in reference that all games now are putting 'Battle Royale ' in their title (even if the Kirby one didn't put exactly that name but the idea of it is still there)

[@brandonkong4299]

It’s a shame to hear what happened to Superbot Entertainment and it’s sad that Dart, Abe & the Gravity Rush/Journey stage didn’t come to be and I was excited to see what Dart & Abe were gonna play like and to see the Gravity Rush stage in action but unfortunately no If a Round 2 doesn’t happen then if Nintendo and Sony could work out their differences and put that aside maybe a Sony character could happen so then the big console 3 are all represented in one game and I think Sly Cooper would be the perfect Sony rep

[@OFFATHER13]

Sony did not realize that the success of Smash was due to freedom, like wrestling games. You can choose to play with a bar, or play with a devastating finishing move, or play on the opponent’s exit.

[@arekrekas213]

Thank you for covering dreamscape first, i really apreciate that as a LittleBigPlanet fan

[@Beta64]

I'm a huge fan too, so I had to cover it first haha I actually did an episode on LBP, if you didn't know: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6CXdXSgesuIobs

[@awesomematt45]

I need a second All Stars game man. Just imagine Capcom making this and turning it into a MvC clone. Can you imagine how OP Sly Cooper would be with those kind of fucking combos?

[@sebastianmartinez1843]

Well MvC is Create by Capcom The not will we a Copy but will be Alternate MvC

[@SuperChunk84]

Okay, now that would be cool.

[@madmaster0015]

We could have gotten a Sony Smash Bros series which would have been amazing if it received the talent, time, and support that Nintendo gave to Smash Bros. The fact Playstation All Stars and its studio met such a sad fate is one of the biggest tragedies in gaming history.

[@nuibaba280]

A shame, Smash having a big rival would've been interesting.

[@callinater6133]

I wouldn’t call it one of the biggest tragedies in gaming. Not even close. Sure it’s disappointing but at the end of the day, Sony doesn’t really have the same IP power that Nintendo has.

[@madmaster0015]

@@callinater6133 Its a B tier gaming tragedy then.

[@hwanniggles187]

@@callinater6133 I mean all they really have is Mario and Pokemon with huge influence. Im sick of Nintendo fans thinking they have a huge recognizable cast when Im positive no one would know 90% of Nintendo's IPs if it wasnt for Smash. The same would've happened with PS All Stars. Hell it kinda did honestly. Without it, I wouldve never discovered Gravity Rush, Sly Cooper, inFAMOUS, Heavenly Sword and Twisted Metal

[@callinater6133]

@@hwanniggles187 there’s also Zelda. And Kirby. And Metroid. Nintendo’s character designs are also just generally more marketable and distinct than Sony’s. A big part of that is that a lot of Sony’s IPs have realistic graphics so it can be difficult to make the characters stand out from one another.

[@theminiyosshi2901]

1:40 Every time I hear 2009 I’m always reminded me that on that year I got my first Nintendo DS with Super Mario 64 DS

[@MlopsFunny]

And I get reminded of myself because... guess what?

[@KamyAnai03]

2009 is the year that my little brother was born 💚

[@fanlikeyourself5053]

I feel like now they could do it again. They've had a lot more franchises and characters since PSASBR came out and if Sony is willing to actually give a shit it could be really good.

[@gametron5917]

I’m sure if this game was developed more recently (around 2015-17) it would’ve probably gotten so much more support from Sony. But sadly we are left with a game that I can describe as ‘Lost Potential’. Who knows? Maybe Sony might try something like this again in the next 4-5 years.

[@HouseJambo]

My guess is that Sony was probably intimidated by the fact that this looks so much like smash bros and didn’t want to get into any trouble with the Nintendo Ninjas.

[@Echoesoftimelover]

Yep

[@Mr.Foxhat]

I guarantee it had nothing to do with Nintendo. Sony has a long history of imitating Nintendo and not putting in the full work for it.

[@dustymcwari4468]

Nintendo doesn’t own the genre, or any of the characters and stuff present in PSAll-Stars, so they can’t really do anything (nor there’s a reason to do anything really), Sony could’ve made another game if they wanted, they just chose not to do another or let the studio finish the DLC

[@sahaprocks7751]

Nintendo doesn’t own the platform fighters. That’s how other platform fighters still exist

[@vide0gurt]

The only thing I remember about this game is that Parappa the Rapper can shoot people with a bazooka.

[@kholdkhaos64ray11]

I actually really appreciate your wall of sources.

[@chuckeplushie]

Spike looks cursed with or without a nose, damn

[@Lewis_Sandilands]

The stages in this game are so well done!

[@gregwilliams4926]

I love the Locoroco music whenever Buzz appears on the screen, nice touch.

[@Ryno4Ever]

This what a treat I was not expecting.

[@PrimevalDemon]

Gotta say as a long time fan of beta 64 it's really great to see how far you've come. Each video has shown improvement. Love how you are finally making the show your own and being more out there as a personality.

[@8wsu]

“And There’s Our Pal Buzz Again.” 28:12

[@NotSoMelancholy]

I really hope this series gets revisited in some way shape or form. The original felt like it was having an identity crisis and was meh. But, I still enjoyed my time playing it with friends and it opens my eyes a bit to hear that they did try to get a more varied roster

[@AyaneOfDeath]

Thank you. What an incredible Footage. It let the Game shine in a completely new Light.

[@christophercarrasco154]

Man I *really* hope that rumor for a sequel comes true. A powerstone arena fighter sounds amazing.

[@BrendonMartinStarr]

A sony cross over game where it's a 3D Arena sounds cool. But a lot of people would prefer 2D smash bros style.

[@Ferdoe]

How come when i randomly start looking up things about this game's cut content a week later this is uploaded?

[@kuriatsu]

There's a phenomenon that states that once you recognize something, then you'll see more of it because you recognize it. those events would still be happening of course, but you may or may not have recognized them. that may or may not play a part. However, I've been working on my series on title fight(and consequently the footage beta64 used for title fight) for around 4 months. In that time, playstation all*stars stuff has appeared more frequently...so its definitely a strange coincidence.

[@isabelle2944]

This episode is amazing, definitely the best of yours so far. I love the formatting, editing, everything! You’ve really outdone yourself, this is kwality kahntent.

[@ToxicTurvey]

We need a sequel

[@ElijahW2003]

So... Every stage is a Buzz crossover?

[@ElijahW2003]

@Ryan Stewart Way to reply to a forgotten year-old comment, you sure showed me.

[@ElijahW2003]

@Ryan Stewart I'm pretty sure you're the only one between the two of us who actually cares, lol. Replying to old comments is kinda completely pointless considering the commenter usually barely even remembers what they were talking about.

[@ElijahW2003]

@Ryan Stewart ...Yeah? Literally everyone checks the date of a comment. It's just common sense if you don't want to make yourself look like an idiot, i.e. what you're doing at this very moment. And no, I don't care, lol, it's just entertaining to hear you go on with this weird sense of moral superiority you seem to have. And you, yourself, seem to care a lot about this, going by your own logic. Speaking of which, the fact that you have to constantly remind me (or yourself?) that you're an adult instead of actually showing it through your words is actually pretty telling of your own emotional maturity, lol.

[@neckapples3526]

They use the song Genesis fps their first trailer.

I'm excited for this episode. It's beta has always alluded me.

[@etrotm12thebluewolf15]

Would it make everyone feel better if I said theres rumors about a Playstation All-Stars 2 in development? I dont believe they're true but I do hope they are at least.

[@N0AHVEGA]

It does make me feel better

[@dragondelsur5156]

It's really sad that All-Stars ended up the way it is, i really liked the idea and seeing those early builds... basically SuperBot wanted this game to look unique. Now, if Sony announces something related to this game or a PlayStation crossover, i will be really hyped. PS: Give this comment a like or Buzz will come to your house.

[@Gaaraloverr1]

*low beep, high beep, low beep* “...What do you think?” I’m ashamed to say that made me laugh 😆

this new video format with the camera is actually amazing, adds a lot of personality to your vids, keep it up!

1:16 Why are there 2 Fortnite Battle Royale logos? (The original and one styled after Kirby Battle Royale)

[@ameerh839]

Everyone who actually played the game can agree that it became super fun after the update that fixed literally everything.

[@sinister-oni4177]

Too bad it broke the Vita version in advance.

[@ameerh839]

@Ryan Stewart I meant gameplay wise, but as for dlc characters, I thought Kat and Zues were really fun to play

[@Treydemark]

Watching this after the rumors came out for a sequel

[@coolbrotherf127]

One thing that they did really well was stage design. The evolving stages were cool and very creative. They did the moving stage thing better than Super Smash Bros.

[@CiccioImberlicchio]

Funny how Capcom refused to make a new Rival's school game, it was right after Darkstalkers resurrection dropped and they were bitching about the poor sales despite being a not so well known game in the first place. That was when capcom was in their Darkest times, i'm glad they got out of it

[@Next-xm2dh]

I hope They Let Itsuno Make A New One, He wants To do it

[@AyaneOfDeath]

So true

[@torqueandrikotoone]

I personally like the idea of collecting a item to change the stage. It gives a reason for the animation at the start of the game changer.

[@superkoopa3695]

So that’s why crash wasn’t in the game.

[@Echoesoftimelover]

Every time I heard your intro I would smile, because Earthbound is awesome. I’ll miss that feeling now :(

[@Stiiizz]

You know I’m interested in the beta of the mario and sonic at the Olympic Games series

[@connorbeith3232]

Glad the mystery of that Dog character was solved. Though you did miss one thing when you covered what happened with Superbot after their Sony departure, they did release one more game: A educational mobile game called “Cuddlefish Friends”. I’m not joking. Seriously, look it up.

[@Clankin]

In my opinion this is a ps3 and vita hidden gem
