PlayStation All-Stars 2 Coming To PlayStation Omni

Posted by: Ernice Gilbert December 12, 2012 in News, Sony 5 Comments

As it ramps up for an apparent PlayStation Omni unveiling sometime next year, Sony’s looking to make PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale 2 one of its family-friendly next-gen titles.The role of game designer asks candidates for “a near encyclopedic knowledge of modern games, with emphasis on PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale”, and also “knowledge of fighting games, their systems and mechanics a serious plus”.

The winning art director candidate will be working on PS All-Stars Battle Royale 2: “A project such as PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, which by definition brings together elements ranging from an incredibly wide range of artistic styles, requires a strong and unifying vision to present a cohesive and polished product.”

The first game wasn’t a mega-sales blockbuster, however Sony seems please with returns, telling IGN: “Sales are right on target with expectations and we are happy with them.” Perhaps a sequel is on the way.

sigh.
$ony still throwing money at a game 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of their fans actually want!
yea, this is totally going to save the company who has posted a FY loss every year since the ps3 released, and has its stock the lowest in the companies history!

well if making these games are helping sony then make more then. personally though i think the game sucks. whoever says that PSASBR can compete with smash bros is lying to themselves.

…I actually like it. More than Smash Bros.
And I do not believe to be lying to myself, I do enjoy it more than playing Smash Bros, whether it’d be the first one or Brawl.

I’m not saying that All Star is better than Smash Bros, though, as the whole universe seems to disagree with that, but I would choose to play All Star over Smash Bros any time.

@Wolf1888 didn’t say that. i said if anyone thinks that all stars can “compete” with smash bros then they are lying to themselves. which is a fact all stars can’t compete with smash bros.

Yeah, you are right. All Star will never overcome Smash Bros, it is way too popular. If nintendo were to make an other Smash Bros, it would sell like crazy.
