PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

I don't see why they are trying to parody this game. They could have just came up with their own fighting game engine. It seems that the only fighting game engines used out there are 2. One that is used for super smash bros and another that is used for games like street fighter and mortal combat.

Also yes, I said parody because that is the actual word for what this game is. "Rip-off" is not the correct term. "Rip-off" is means a product that is not worth the price it currently is. The actual word is "spin-off" which is a synonym for parody. It also means an untraditional genre of a game in a game in a franchise (example: If a game like zelda had a party game or puzzle game). This game may have the same modes and engine as super smash bros, but it has different stages and characters which makes it a parody.

Here is my definition of parody
Parody
An imitation of an original work, usually to pay tribute to or expose the author's inspiration from the original work.

Parody can come in many different ways. Parody can vary from coping the genre of the original work, giving the same feel, mood or appearance of the original work or absolutely coping the original work and adding your own original touches to it
 
I can't tell if you're here to talk about the game or you just want to tell people you know what the word parody means.

I am trying to let people know the correct term of what this game is because people usually say rip-off when the actual word is parody or spin-off.

Anyway, it still is a copy of the same game. It sort of reminds me of super mario bros. all night nippon. It's a spin-off of super mario bros. because it features different graphics and stuff like that.

I am not a fanboy but I will say that it does copy a lot from the game and it can not be considered and absolute original work unless it has something in it that makes it different from the game like adding stuff that the game doesn't have or making the gameplay a little different. What I meant was that it is still a copy of the same game engine.

No, but I do want to play cartoon network punch time explosion XL for the wii. This game looks uninteresting to me mostly because of it's character selection. I don't know anything about most of these characters. Also, I do not own a PS Vita nor do I plan on getting one. I do support other companies though so I am not a fanboy. Here are a list of companies I support.

Data Design Interactive (guilty pleasure)
Sega
Nintendo
Sony
Majesco
Namco
EA
Disney

Here are a list of franchises I play

Mario Kart
Super Monkey Ball
Super Smash Bros
Wario Ware
Taito Minigame Collections
Kirby
Animal Crossing
Rhythm Heaven
Sonic
Metroid
Cooking Mama
Sims
101 in 1
Family Party
Luigi's Mansion
Mario
F-Zero
Ape Escape

Yeah, there are a lot of nintendo games on the list but that was the main company I grew up with but I wouldn't call myself a fanboy because I will be comfortable with change in these series and I do play other games other than nintendo. The reason why I support that company and sega so much is because they are the two companies that got me hooked on video games in the first place.
