The dawn of the Playstation brought with it some epic video game franchises. Without Sony consoles we wouldn’t have such characters as Solid Snake, Lara Croft or even Spyro The Dragon. Have you ever thought about how cool it would be to have characters like Kratos and Nathan Drake pitted against each other in a fight to the death? Or even sack boy having a brawl against Crash Bandicoot? Well soon your wishes maybe granted
PlayStation's Official podcast is being delayed a bit tonight, possibly for details on the upcoming PlayStation 3 exclusive game reveal.
Well, it is a PlayStation game. It's not unreasonable to expect that the PlayStation Blog and the Blogcast will discuss it.
In fact, I think it's expected. But it's a good thing to know that they might have more details up by tonight. :)
Yeah, also says it in the article. Didn't really need to check your TV guide. lol
From the article: " GTTV is supposed to reveal PlayStation’s new game from SuperBot Entertainment tonight. Tonight meaning, 1 am EST which is tomorrow morning for some people or late tonight for others."
Yup.
Not sure why you got disagrees, the article does say,
"Whether Sid’s reply about God of War starring Fat Princess was an obscure hint or a simple reply in jest, is yet to be seen."
Anyway, it would be interesting to see which characters they include in the game. I doubt she could be a main fighter as all she does is get captured and eat cake lol.
Maybe a special/support character that throws cake? =p Or sends out her fighters for her?
Ahead of the reveal of a “huge new PS3 exclusive” next Thursday, Sony has registered the web address for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
This will definitely make the wait for SSB4 easier, best of both worlds being a PlayStation and Nintendo fan :)
I wonder if it'll play like Smash Bros though... I mean, knocking people around the screen and stuff. Smash Bros. is one of the main reasons I love Nintendo, so if there's something like it on PS3 I will be one happy man. Too bad Snake probably won't be on there, then again... Maybe we'll get Old Snake haha! XD
@Abash... no homo here, but I love you right now. I mean if only this whole site was filled with people like you, the trolls would fade away and every article wouldn't turn into a flame war.
If it's a fighter like Tekken or MK I don't know if I would like it. The biggest thing I love about SSB is the huge levels full of moves and items and interactivity. It's a fighter like no other. I really hope Sony goes all out smash. If they do this, they will have my money like yesterday.
I hope so Sony need a game like this hopefully its on the VITA too...
If theres anyone who could make a game like this its Sony.
Nathan Drake

It's actually ridiculous how many characters Sony have at their disposal.
I love how everyone is making the character's list, but both of you guys forgot Nariko!! How could you! XD
here's 4 people I want to see.
Nariko (heavenly sword)
leonard (white knight chronicles)
Keats (folklore)
Ellen (folklore)
How could you guys forget the kingdom Hearts characters (Sora and Riku especially? Would be nice to have some Disney characters from there as well but Disney would never allow it, damm :(
I'm pretty sure that little cape dude from The Last Guy will kick all those characters' asses. Either him or the Fat Princess.
Let's hope so! Either that or definitely AT E3. I just wanna see the roster of characters... Would love possibly having someone from Persona 4, or the Disgaea series!
Also... If Drake's gonna be in there (which we KNOW he is), Sully better be playable too dammit.
Dream Roster right here

Spike (Ape Escape), Arc (Arc the Lad), Toan (Dark Cloud), Artemis (Dark Mist), Ellen or Keat (Folklore), Princess with servants (Fat Princess), Kratos (God of War), Nariko (Heavenly Sword), Ico, Cole (InFamous), Jak (Jak&Daxter), Jeanne (Jeanne d'arc), Sev (Killzone), Dart (Legend of Dragoon), Sackboy (LBP), Sir Daniel (Medievil), Parappa the Rapper, Rachet and Clank, Nathan Hale (Resistance), Jaster Rouge (Rouge Galaxy), Wander (Shadow of the Colossus), Sly Cooper, Sweet Tooth (Twisted Metal), Drake (Uncharted), Leonard (White Knight Chronicles), and The Monsters (War of the Monster).

Cool, very excited to see how it plays. Fingers crossed that it's fully 3D with four players as Sony entered the market with 3D mascots and characters. I'd love power ups/weapon pick ups like Power Stone/SSB, special movesets and unique finishers like in Power Stone.
Also, I like the name, PlayStation All Stars sounds pretty good. Thank god it's not call Title Fight lol.
One of the big rumors of late last year was that Sony is working on a Super Smash Bros-style game with all your favorite PlayStation characters. Now, a survey seems to suggest that the game will be called PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
O_o - juicy rumor that seems to be true. I was beginning to think the original rumors were non-sense.
I kind of like the name even if it is a little long, I think it's the best title fit for it
I also think Sony needs a Kart game with all PlayStation characters in it. Imagine how awesome that would be if developped by Naughty Gods!
Those guys created the best Kart game ever on the PS1: Crash Team Racing!
I don't really like the name when it's written in an article like this, but I would imagine that when it comes to box art, "PlayStation All-Stars" will be on top and a little smaller, and "Battle Royale" will be the stand-out.
I don’t like the title. The title gives off that there will be no one from outside of Sony’s franchises that will be in the game and we all want to see some character from other games in this. I want to see someone from Mortal Kombat, and someone from one of the Assassin’s Creed games. There are endless characters that can be in the a PlayStation oriented fighting game other than the ones that Sony owns.
I didn't get that impression when I read it. If it was named "Sony All-Stars..." yeah, but I think using the PlayStation name is fine, and could allow for any character that's been present in a PS game, Sony-owned or not.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the name. I'm not a fan of long names in general. It's just awkward when it becomes a mouthful, and something short is easier to talk about. "Hey, you wanna play PQRSTUVWXYZ?" is more obnoxious to say than "Hey, you wanna play X?" I mean, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is NINE syllables. That's a lot for a game title.
skyttskytt has a good point. I don't know if you've realized this, but Mortal Kombat and Assassin's Creed are both on Playstation, and might even be considered All-Stars.
Me too. Paul Gale Network is a just horrible looking site with bad content yet they were the ones to break this story.
On topic: The name sounds good...its bit of a mouthful but i'll get used to it.
If it is basically Sony SSB, it'll be a shameless rip off, I can't help but get excited.
Who says it will be a rip off?
The idea is dominated by Nintendo and they do it very well, but so can Sony. IMO there is a whole class of genres Nintendo does very well in that I think Sony can benefit borrowing from for their own franchises, especially LBP-themed games.
Personally, I prefer a 3D fight world with simple arcade fun like Power Stone, which is the direction I hope they take this game, especially considering most of Sony's biggest franchises started in 3D anyway
Ahh, the amazing Power Stone. How come Capcom never bothers to bring this franchise to the current generation with proper online etc? It would have been a killer.
Did you not know? Sackboy and Kratos are one in the same. Hence why both of them are so damn epic.

That could work but I think a little more is needed to define it as a fighting game. 'Playstation All Stars' could eventually turn in to something more like 'Playstation All Stars Soccer' or 'Playstation All Stars Football'. I'm just happy to see it is being discussed.
Call me crazy, but I think every word in the title screams generic. It's overly descriptive of what it's trying to be. It needs to have a more creative title. Something that'll give me that same chill I get when that announcer guy says, "SUPER SMASH BROTHERS!!!"
"Title Fight" was a much better name. Remember you're not selling to kids Sony.
This game will not be a bloodfest. It's going to be E10 man. It's their smash. Lighting effects and awesome flash instead of blood. Your getting E rated Sony characters and R rated characters. It will meet in the middle. And I am pretty sure it will be amazing.
Either which way, I am excited.
I really wanna hear more about this game. This is the first I've heard about it since like December. I hope it gets revealed soon
