Can't really try the online stuff my friend brought the game and the online pass and all that prevents me.

I second this.

He's just got the wrong hair, but o'well.

Oh and Mink, I think you should include the fact that the game does use an online pass, specifically under this section:

PlayStation All-Stars supports Cross Buy.
If you buy the PS3 version you get a downloadable Vita copy free!
Linked to your account, you can’t buy the PS3 version and give the vita version away/sell it.
"_______"

Sucks, especially for those who plan to gameshare it/ bringing the copy over to a friend's place, as well as it having an effect on the trade-in value.

It looks bigger than his default hair, without being super saipan style that the original has. Good enough for mine.

So if you go under tutorial there are are 4 different option Basic which is in the beta, Advanced which teaches you more stuff like how to dodge level hazards and items and how to drop through platforms, different wake up stances basically in depth stuff.

There is the character section which will teach you all of your characters moves there is a separate one for everyone.

Lastly there is a combo section which teaches you combos for your character like sf4, or mvc3.

Then if you go under combat trials there are activities that train you to become better with certain mechanics the one under general trials is broad and you can use any character. Then if you go to character combat trials there each character has like 20-25 trials that basically trick you into learning the character. All these can be done at 3 difficulties.

Also I tried in game soundtracks and it didn't work so I really don't know why that's on the box maybe there is another way.

There is definitely a lot of stuff to do here but if your not interested in that kind of stuff it doesn't really add anything.

The AI is really good at high levels for arcade and the trials there are only 3 levels for the AI. If you go to versus or practice however and there are 5 levels and these guys know what they are doing dodging specials and doing things such as hitconfirming into their level 1's they are definitely a challenge.

What could drive such a company to stoop this low?? I mean you ever see Omar's facial expression when talking about the game? His morose facial expressions tell it all.

Seth and Clockwork are also henchmen on drugs that can talk about this game with such high spirits and not just break down and cry...

Makes me sick!!


Just kidding SUPERBOT DON'T BAN MY PSN AND RELINQUISH MY COPY OF PASBR!

Hmm. I wonder if I can give the vita version to my friend then... Like, I'll make a new ps3 account with his psn info, download the vita version there, and then just play all stars using my account.

thanks for the answer btw!

Ohhh SSReborn, great info on the AI. The two AI difficulties in training mode, are they higher than the three in regular play?

Can you go into the gameplay options and see what is tweakable? Can you turn off stages midway, for example, can you turn of certain super levels, etc.

For in-game music, have you considered checking the sound settings? Something may be in there to allow for it

Can second player sign in to his/her own account?

WHERE IS THE STAT TRACKING?? Please dont tell me they removed stat tracking, I'm going to be so upset if they did.

Can you detail some of the higher level challenges/the ones you find most unique?

Thank you very much

Sorry guys I'm at the tourney right now will give you more info later but to answer a quick couple questions I did try looking for some kind of options in the sound setting.

Also there are 5 AI levels in this game but for arcade and trials there are only 3. The 2 other levels are much stronger then the first 3 and can give a good challenge.

Wow, why would they not have harder difficulties for the arcade? And are the difficulties available for offline casual play (against bots/local MP)?

Why would they disable harder difficulties? :S

Thanks Reborn, I'd appreciate answers to the other questions when any1 has the time/game.

My guess is that they didn't feel that those higher difficulties would be fair since you would at times have to face 2 or 3 characters and the AI could be so hard it would feel broken.

I am glad the Vita copy is linked to a certain account. People would have abused it, and we probably would never have seen any other games doing it.

But that only happens during the final boss. Otherwise, it's FFA, or 1v1. Not a big deal, All-Stars difficulty should suffice.

Hey, what are the other two difficulties called?

I hope Superbot has a quit penalty in the way of time outs and depleted rank/XP. The beta was all casual and lovely, but the dangling of the unlockables will surely result in some rage quitting. They need to get that down ASAP.

I wonder if online has more content in terms of stat tracking, and the options for in-game server settings. I have heard nothing of the stat tracking that I was sure was in this game, and it really bothers me.

Where IS this? Surely Im not the only one who loves stat tracking so much

From which contest? I'm still waiting to hear something from twitter. I think it would be silly if they announce the winners on release date. I don't want to jump early if I actually won a free game.
