Rumor: Smash Bros-Style Fighter With PlayStation Characters In The Works

A few weeks ago, some rumors surfaced about a Smash Bros-esque character fighter in development for the PS3. Now some more details have appeared to add dimension to this intriguing possibility.

According to Paul Gale Network, this over-the-top mascot fighting game is in development by SuperBot Entertainment, a new indie game studio that has confirmed it's working on a game for Sony. The game will supposedly be called Title Fight and includes well-known PlayStation-exclusive characters such as Sweet Tooth, Kratos, Sly Cooper, and more. Supposedly even James Bond was being considered at some point because of Sony's involvement in the upcoming Bond film.

According to PGN, the weird "Long Live Play" commercial that Sony put out in October ties into this game, although that makes me wonder why they didn't just announce it then.

The details definitely sound believable right now, but nothing has been confirmed by Sony or SuperBot Entertainment, so let's not jump to conclusions. We'll update you right away if and when that changes.

YYYEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! KRATOS & DRAKE WILL BE EPIC...OH YEA AND IM FIRST

I, for one, am surprised this hasn't happened sooner. Maybe Sony thought that if they waited for 10+ years, they wouldn't receive headlines like "Smash Bros-Style Fighter With Plastation Characters..." , etc.,. Jokes on you Sony.

Hmmm.. Should make for an interesting title. I'm a huge Smash Bros. and Sony fan, so this game sounds like it would be right up my alley.
by xghost777 Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:40 PM

Some of the pictures definitely lend credibility, it should be cool.
by john262728 Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:40 PM

cool I hope this rumor is true
by Chetashiny Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:41 PM

That would be interesting. I wonder if Spyro and Crash Bandicoot would be in the game.

Sony copies everything from the wii and xbox.

Edit: Im sry I was wasted when I wrote this I know what I said was wrong I didnt mean to start a fanboy war.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jeeeeeze! It took them long enough! I've been saying they should make something like this for like 10 years now!

Edit: Clearly Jak and Ratchet need to be in this game.

So if it has a connection to that trailer... then COLE MACGRATH AND ISAAC CLARKE IS IN IT!!!!

I want to see Wander from shadow of colussus vs Sora from Kingdom Hearts!!!!
by lightbright32 Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:44 PM

Sackboy vs kratos = epic
by itzVeritas Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:45 PM

Why isn't Dante, Crash, Snake, or Spyro in there?
by The guy who is meh Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:46 PM

Errr... Okay. I would't mind really. But I hope the developers have their *** together, most battle royals suck the *** out of ***. Except for SSB.

I'm tossing money at my screen but nothing is happening!!!
by Allen Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:49 PM

Sounds like an awful idea. I love Smash Bros, but Nintendo characters just work so well in that kind of melee. I don't see that with Sony. Also, the name reeks of trash, similar to Move Heroes. I'd like to see this do well, but I have some serious doubts.
by DarkeonWarlord Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:51 PM

Kratos vs Nathan Drake vs Rachet & Clank vs James Bond. lt the battle commence
by Data Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:52 PM

This is a great idea! Nathen Drake vs Lara Croft?
by TheMrNovick Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:54 PM

if this actually happens, and they make it well, i may have to start investing in cleenex.
by Brun Deign Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:55 PM

Isn't it kind of a stupid move to put the fate of a game with such potential in the hands of an indie game studio? Despite not owning a PS3 I've always been a fan of Sony's first party offerings and I don't want to see anything less than a really good game come of this.
by Garrus Vakarian Monday, November 28, 2011 at 08:55 PM

Smash Bros was pretty cool but it already got old.
