Sweet as hell. Maybe they'll finally quit screwing around and show us Jak.. I really want to know which version he's based off of.

Release date: 23 October 2012
Pre-order bonus is alt. costumes for every character

Considering the fact that I see only two question marks: it looks like the game is only going to have 10 characters.. Idk. I could be entirely wrong.

But if it only has 10 characters, then it's definitely a no buy for a full retail price

I think those characters are Ratchet&Clank and Jak&Daxter; both of whom are confirmed to appear in the final game as playable characters but have not been shown yet (i.e. character model and or promotional artwork).

That's just what I think though, so I could be wrong.

EDIT2:
"Plenty of other costumes will be announced in the coming months. You’ll also be able to unlock different variations within the game itself. These, however, are only through pre-order."

Seems like this game has alt. costumes rather then swaps (maybe both? I don't know yet). But that is good, alternative (model) costumes were a feature I really wanted in Smash Brothers as well. Sounds like a good add. Here's hoping for Classic Ratchet&Clank (or Snowman from R&C3 multiplayer, haha), and Pirate and Tuxedo Sly Cooper.

The question marks are most likely place holders for the characters they'll officially reveal later today.

Then place your bets, gentlemen.

I'm gonna go with Jak and someone unexpected - ie, not Ratchet, Cole or Snake.

[Also, what the hell is that Big Daddy costume supposed to be?]


EDIT: In other news, I like this Christian guy.

A Little Sister's view of the Big Daddy?!?! Don't they see everything as happy!?!?

I suppose.

I hope none of those costumes are references to anything specific, because I don't actually recognize any of them (Other than Sly's) >_>

Looks like Hiehachi from Tekken is comfirmed along with Inoue.

This is really getting out of hand here...
Big daddy from Bioshock is cool but Heihachi from tekken..?

Are they listening to their Sony fanboy requests or are they tossing in whatever character they can find and call it a Sony roster?
Seriously... I was more anticipated for Jak than Heihachi of all things Sony.

The only Sony thing about Heihachi was him being an exclusive character in soul calibur 2 for the playstation 2 but that was about it :/

Tekken had a long history with Sony until Tekken 6. So it seems logical for Superbot to show a Fighter at EVO. Well, 10 down, 12-14 characters to go.

Hmmm. This game.

Toro's okay. Predictable. I don't like Tekken, but Heihachi looks cool as hell. Dat rocket, dat Kuma. Awesome. Would've preferred older Heihachi, though.

But let me tell you, this game's doing a good job of showing me just how idiotic most people are.
"WOW THERE'S ONLY TEN CHARACTERS? SONY IS FINISHED"
"WHERE ARE THE JAPANESE CHARACTERS? WHY IS THE WHOLE ROSTER WESTERN?"
"WHY WOULD THEY PUT FAT PRINCESS IN INSTEAD OF CRASH BANDICOOT? AWFUL ROSTER."

At first I thought everyone was f*** with me, but there's simply too many of them for it to be true. And they show up every single time this game is brought up, and in massive numbers when something new is announced like this. The whole roster hasn't been announced. They've already said there would be about two dozen characters, we're nowhere close to done. How are there this many f*** stupid people?

Yup

Oh. The site's back up. Cool.

I could not agree with you more. God damn. Do stupid people come in hordes? It sure feels like it.
