PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

Did anyone get into the current BETA for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale? I downloaded it last night and played a few matches. I have to say I'm glad I did because I now know I have one less game to buy later this year.

I guess I should have known because I'm not really a fan of Smash Bros., a game that clearly influenced PS All-Stars. I was excited to try this though because it has so many recognisable characters. I had the same problem with PS-All Stars as I have with Smash Bros. Basically I find it so hard to concentrate on what is happening, especially when there is more than one of your chosen character on screen.

The game seems very well put together and a lot of thought has gone into some of the signature moves and the environments. I guess the game just isn't for me.

Anyone here interested in it?

Just played the Beta for a bit there and I did enjoy it to my suprise.

That being said, you're dead right about trying to keep track. I lost track of my character in the mayhem so many times. From multiple versions of the same character having little difference between them, to the screen pulling out so far you can barely even see your character, they need to add something.

Kratos seems to have a huge advantage over the other characters atm too.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It might just be because I don't know how to play properly and Kratos' weapons have some range and he suited to button-mashing.

From what I've seen of it doesn't look half as fun as smash brothers.Actually it looks quite poor in comparison
