DEATH BATTLE! Discussion Thread (2024–2025) (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

It's crazy how this game fell off in popularity
I remember as a kid seeing folks play it at a BBQ

I remember owning one of those discs which had a bunch of GameCube demos on them, and one of those demos was Soul Caliber 2 which had Link as a playable character.

It was so surreal seeing Link in a game that wasn't Zelda or a crossover game like Smash Bros, especially when SC looked so much more realistic and serious compared to what I was use to.

Covid hurt this game chances especially with the bad netcode and some other issues it had in its run

Hopes Namco gives it another shot during its 30th anniversary

Also they tease more on T-1000

All I’m hearing is Spider-Man is likely stronger than that fodder Superfraud

Huh, so the crossover canonically takes place not long after Secret Wars? That's interesting.

They've been doing quite a few comics set then, mainly in regards to when Peter had the black suit...

This happening after Secret Wars is interesting. Hulk's synopsis is less clear about where it would occur in the timeline. So if this is explicitly after the original SW, does this mean that anything that happens, while non-canon, scale to Spider-Man?

Redditors see other Redditors do Dimensional Scaling really poorly and then complain about Dimensional Scaling. Rinse and repeat.
