Cos it was changed so fast it looked like a mistake or Sony didn't like it.
I'm sure they wanted the tags there, so that it would show up when people searched for Smash Bros, but they probably freaked out when they saw that people were noticing the tags being visible
Why? Trying to leech sales? From a business perspective, I don't see the problem. Movies do it all the time.
From a marketing perspective, it's a rather stupid idea, especially with the Wii U just being announced as getting a release date this November (although for monetary reasons, I hope they delay the release).
See it in perspective. People for at least a year have been waiting for any information of not one, but two Super Smash Bros. announcements, one for the Wii U and one for the 3DS. It's a stupid idea to tag something with something that is actually being anticipated.
Well, the trivia questions aren't that big a deal, it's been confirmed that stage hazards can be turned off, which is actually an improvement over Super Smash Bros.

Turning off stage hazards is only an improvement if you're under the mistaken impression that games like Super Smash Bros. are competitive fighting games, rather than the glorified party games that they are. This doesn't mean they aren't FUN. I have a great time bashing in Pikachu's face with Bowser's fist or having Sonic spin-dash into Mario, but these are not highly structured competitive games.

...why couldn't they make this game more akin to classic arcade style fighting instead? They... they didn't need to emulate the same gameplay scheme, considering the fact that what will sell this game are the characters.
The huge disappointment called DmC Dante is in my opinion offset by the awesomeness that is Spike and Sackboy.
I was looking forward to Dante too, I was thinking they'd do what happened with Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and put in DMC3 Dante. Or even DMC4 Dante. But no. We get DmC Dante. I didn't even watch the rest of that video. That particular version of Dante has a lot to live up to.
Though what really, really ticks me off is I want to hate the new game so bad, but it looks like a Devil May Cry game should. Plus Vergil is in it! The thing that irritates me is they're calling Dante's sword Rebellion when it looks nothing like it. At least his guns look right. Or close enough.
Anyways, here's hoping that the rumor of Sir Daniel Fortescue being in this game are true.
Well, crap. There went any idea of wanting to hate this game's guts despite being a Smash clone. Nariko from Heavenly Sword and Sir Daniel Fortescue from Medievil are now confirmed. Those two plus Raiden from Metal Gear Rising really want me to want this game.

As of now, the character line up for the game has been totally announced. Any further characters will likely be DLC. These characters are:
Big Daddy
Cole MacGrath
Evil Cole MacGrath
Colonel Radec
Dante
Fat Princess
Heihachi Mishima
Jak and Daxter
Kratos
Nariko
Nathan Drake
PaRappa the Rapper
Raiden
Ratchet and Clank
Sackboy
Sir Daniel Fortesque
Sly Cooper
Spike
Sweet Tooth
Toro
Gonna be honest, the only characters I'd likely play as are Nariko, Raiden, and Sir Dan. Dante if the REAL Dante is an alt costume. Maybe Kratos and Sweet Tooth.

How do you know? Also no playing as J&D, R&C, or Sly for you?

From IGN: Sony has revealed that no more characters will be announced for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale’s launch. In a post on Twitter, PlayStation Blog senior social media specialist Sid Shuman wrote that “We have revealed the full launch lineup of characters,” confirming that All-Stars will ship with 20 fighters.
And as for J&D, R&C, and Sly, I've never played any of the games they're from.

Sluggish, repetitious fighting...with trivia questions? If you're going to rip off Smash Bros...rip it off well.
Stage hazards are part of the fun.
Is that stage in the corner off Ape Escape!? If it has Ape Escape in it I might play it.
Sweet! It makes sense the gadgets make good SSB fighting gameplay.

You got into the beta!?
Where was it confirmed?
Same here expect Raiden instead of Sackboy.
Sir Dan really moves and fights like he does in his games, that's good. I wish for a new Medievil game.
