Dante's movelist is disappointing. I thought that it was going to be one button for rebellion and one for his other weapons, not one for melee and one for utility.

There's three buttons. So, I don't get what you're going with here. Explain? I never played DMC.

don't worry, if it's anything like the game he's in then you'll only need one button anyway

f*** you

Very funny.




Only then not.

Never have I seen Mario Party music be more fitting...

Beta's up! I won a code for it.

I think the best part so far is the screen that says "Opponents found, connecting.."

...I don't think the servers are up yet.

My psychic powers are telling me that BlackRock Stadium from Twisted Metal will be a stage... and.. and that it will mesh with Haven City from Jak&Daxter.

Radec's my favorite so far. No, I don't stand in the corner and spam forward triangle. f*** those guys.

Kratos and Fat Princess are my second favorites. I don't like the others much. Oddly, I don't give a damn about Fat Princess, God of War or Killzone, but I love Sly Cooper, Twisted Metal and Parappa. Strange that it should work out that way.

Sly needs a buff, damn. Can't generate any AP with the guy at all.

I'm best with Sly here. So many tools at his disposal, and gets AP just fine. He has the best level 1 in the demo so far, too.

Parappa and Sweet Tooth need buffs, somehow...

PaRappa really doesn't need a buff, from what I've seen in the GameStop demo. He's got the Boxxy Boy AP spawner, for crying out loud. And his Skateboard Dive can be really useful for messing up crowds.

From playing the Comic Con demo, I'm definitely doing well with Fat Princess and Spike, though I'd love to learn how to play as Sackboy.

I have no idea what you're talking about with Sly's level 1, since every time I saw someone use it Murray couldn't go one step without falling over. Then again, I only ever use his level 2.

So to make things interesting: Who do you think will rival against each other in the competition? List your results with all 20 characters.

This could make some interesting discussions/speculations

Kratos- Sweet Tooth (confirmed)
Sweet Tooth- Fat Princess (something with sweets and cake?)
Heihachi- Toro (confirmed)
Toro- Parappa (dog vs cat)
Dante- Nariko (confirmed iirc)
Nariko- Kratos (heavenly blade versus god of war)
Sly Cooper- Nathan Drake (both are thieves)
Nathan Drake- Sweet Tooth (Nate is affraid of clowns)
Big Daddy- Sackboy (confirmed)
Ratchet&Clank- Jak&Daxter (do I even need to explain?)
Jak&Daxter- Evil Cole McGrath (dark&edgy vs dark&goatee)
Colonel Radec- Ratchet&Clank (space whepunz)
Raiden- Cole McGrath (ORANGE LIGHTNING ZA ZA ZING)

and that's it for now. Colonel Radec vs Nathan Hale could also work.

To be honest, as of now, I find the rivalries hard to predict. If they're making Big Daddy go against Sackboy because Sackboy is 'cuter' than Big Daddy is, how is it impossible for the rest to be strange and unguessable?

I don't think Dante would go up against Nariko. If anything, I'd say Dante vs Raiden since of their way with their swords being a bit too similar and that Raiden looks like some kind of of demon. Idk.. My assumption.

For Parappa, I'd say toro but I think Its more of Heihachi due to the whole mentor thing in Rapappa the rapper

Anyways, got my hands on the beta. I'm definitely a Sweet Tooth main. Colonel Radec for second (I don't spam projectiles with him because it's really hard to get the shot to hit in this game. I'm not kidding).

Also, according to the public beta I played: The duration of the lvl 3 supers are actually longer than the ones shown in the video. However, your best option feels like the lvl 1 and 2 supers alot. Still, everyone plays it their own way.

Also, one more thing: someone give sly a god damn buff because regardless of whether he's invisible or not, I get most of my Kill points from Sly players in the beta.
