Character Wishlist: PlayStation All-Stars 2

No Caption Provided

This list was originally a wishlist for Battle Royale. I had about 30 ideas, but only four of them ended up being playable characters (Sir Daniel, Sackboy, Spike, and Nariko). I'm hoping that in a couple years we'll get a second game in the series, so this list is now a wishlist for characters that should debut in a potential second game.

To keep things from getting too crazy, I'm limiting this list to character from games that were published and/or developed by Sony. We could always make outlandish wishlists with a hundred third-party characters that would be fun to have in the game, but, while I'm sure there will be some third-party characters in the game, I'm keeping my hopes at least a little realistic here.

So, in no particular order...

List items

  • While EverQuest's mascot is infinitely more iconic to PC gamers, she does appear in the Champions of Norrath series on PS2.

  • Not a very good game, and, sadly, Phil Hartman's last project before his death. Let's bring Blasto back along with that bank of Phil Hartman one-liners that so many people missed out on.

  • If you've never played Jumping Flash, I'm not sure we can be friends anymore.

  • Probably one of my favorite characters of this console generation. I'd love to take a crossbow and twing-twang Radec in the eye.

  • Legend of Dragoon may have been a FF clone, but it was a pretty good one.

  • The dark, mysterious, 10,000 year-old, female party member from Legend of Dragoon.

  • The titular giant robot that is piloted by Lieutenant Lester.

  • Screw these guys from Killzone, Resistance, and SOCOM. Let's go back to our action/shooter roots on the PlayStation platform and get Gabe Logan's goofy looking running animation in 1080p.

  • I'm gonna get really thirsty, then build a bridge on top of your ass. Boom!

  • Okay, so not a character, but I'd love a Fantavision level in the game.

  • I mean...you kinda have to have Ico, right?

  • Let's transform into some demons and beat the hell out of some Fat Princesses.

  • Who doesn't love adorable space pirates that fight with twin daggers? I'd rather have in the game than the ridiculously named main character of Rogue Galaxy (Jaster Rogue).

  • This just seems like a no brainer.

  • Defeat your friends by weakening their psyche with constant chanting.

  • You can't have a game revolving around beating the shit out of other Sony characters and not include Rau.

  • The world needs more bloody halberds.

  • Got any Giant Enemy Crabs that need killin'?

  • He's smarter than you and will crack your skull with a giant wrench. What's not to love?

  • Transforming into a massive armored knight seems like an idea made for a fighting game.

  • What Pokemon Trainer was to Smash Bros Brawl, Ellen could be for Battle Royale.

  • This one will never happen, but I'm including her based on my own personal bias. Maggie was the virtual host of the later issues of PlayStation Underground. In a fighting game, she could kill you with sass and back-talk.

  • Great job, Jeremy!

  • When 3D platformers were all the rage, Jersey Devil went by mostly unnoticed.

  • Again, obviously not a character, but can't you just imagine an Intelligent Qube level?

  • If you can create a mist that threatens all of humanity, you're probably a good candidate for a fighting game.

  • Just imagine the grapples!

  • Asking for Lammy when we've already got PaRappa may be a bit much, but hey...it's my list!

  • I just realized I might be creating a Level 5 fighting game.

  • Put a different CD in to change his moveset.

@dvdhaus: I'm trying to stick to games that were published and/or developed by Sony since those wouldn't require crazy licensing deals.

How about Crash Bandicoot? He's no longer an exclusive but he'd make a great character for any platform brawler or whatever these types of Smash-like games are categorized as.

@manicraider: Ideally, you would want Crash and Spyro in there for historical significance as past Sony mascots, but they're not Sony characters anymore, so I didn't include them on the list.

Did they already announce Jak? If not, then that's who I'd want. Why wouldn't they put him in there?

@Metal_Gear_Sunny Not officially, but he does appear in some of the marketing images along with Cole, Drake, and Ratchet.

I was going for some of the more obscure ones.

@Mento: You're probably right about Max. I should add him either way.

The others you named include some good options, but, again, I was primarily looking at characters in games published or developed by Sony. Just being a PlayStation exclusive game doesn't mean they wouldn't have to license that character to get them in the game.

LOL you are still going. How about more recent people like Jeff the Cameraman or Tenzin. Although they might be too main stream.

@dvdhaus: I could see them having cameos, but I don't know about playable characters. Right now I'm just adding ones I thought about but didn't have pages (Mark of Kri and Genji).

@Hailinel: Cool. I didn't realize he was based on a real person til I tried searching for a default image, but obviously I didn't take the time to research it and fill it out.

I had to click on many of those character pages to see what games they're from, so nice work choosing obscure characters. :)

@LordAndrew: Thanks. I found/remembered another five or so today. I'm sure 90% of these won't make the cut though.

@dvdhaus: Yeah, he's not a playable character (yet), but he is featured in one of the stages.

How about a car from Gran Turismo? Wouldn't you want to play as a car in a fighting game?

@D_W: Glad I'm not the only one that remembers some of the more obscure Sony characters.
