Sacred Symbols+, Episode 292 | PlayStation All-Stars 2: Building Our Dream Roster (Video)

Tony Hawk would have a pretty great moveset too!

Jeremy Tan

I second this! Was surprised he wasn’t on anyone’s list, especially Colin

Jeremy Tan

Might have missed it, but part 2 has to be the stages from games. Where are we fighting?

Cormac

No idea what the reference is to some guy y’all are going on about in Colin’s neighborhood or what not. I need answers.

Brent

I would love Juan from Guacamelee. If not him than the severed girl, something to get drinkbox in there

Joshua Fielder

Super-fun episode! Digging the Toshinden and Jumping Flash love

Aaron

Love the Battle Arena Toshinden pull, Eiji was one of my favorites growing up. Only addition that comes to mind right now would be Kena!

Publius_616

What about the Vita goat himself Monokuma?

So how did you guys miss....Shuhei "yosp" Yoshida ?! :O

I think the crucial thing that killed the first game and that needs to be critically done for the second is an esthetic that binds all characters and locations together. The thing that makes Smash Bros shine is that you could envision those characters in a pixar-like animation movie together, and they wouldn't feel weird. Even the humanoid characters got a bit of a "cartoonization". The first All Stars game was so confusing because the characters retained their own style and esthetic. The development team needs to come up with a style that makes them work together. If they nail that - massive step into greatness.

Germanos

This was awesome. Loved it!! Thanks for the continued awesome content.

Miracle Peach

Unless I missed it, I’m really surprised Colin didn’t mention Sion from The Bouncer. Early launch window PS2 game from Square.

Sergio Pina

Mel from Hot Shots Golf no doubt.

Great idea. I think there should be another tier for stages/settings, that's where things like Wipeout/GT/Ridgeracer could fit. Things missed that I thought could be fun: Rocket League Destiny 2: Oryx or Savathun Atreus The Dwarf Brothers from GoW Resogun ship Super Stardust Squall from FF8 Something from VR like Moss or Job Simulator Pyramid Head Eve from Parasite Eve Lara Croft Dino Crisis, the raptor The Last Guardian birddog, but it is always delayed in entering the match The First Light DLC character (cool powers) MLB The Show (Ortis was first cover, roided and beating people with bats) Nioh Sekiro Tearaway Patapon army Tenchu (that spray of blood) Something Yakuza

Nathan Densley

Very good episode, loved the Tomba and Blasto picks. Two of my favorite games I still own and play sometimes. If I had to pick a few not mentioned on the episode it would be, Jersey Devil, Cubix (from Cubix racing), Laura Croft, and Tony hawk for fun.

Robbie Cooper

Exactly! Original Tomb Raider trilogy Lara Croft

Jerison Reidell

How is there no Abby? Give her a shotgun and a golf club!

Matthew Bunton

I came here to say the same but a bit more crude. Like triangle boobie Lara Croft.

Melvin Jones

Great episode with some really solid picks! I was a bit surprised no one said Lara Croft from Tomb Raider.

Jerison Reidell

Sam Porter Bridges and Fetus

leaf lettuce

Imagine a Constellation episode with Colin, Chris, Dustin, and Geno

Chris Morton

I love this topic! I didn’t know a third of the characters you guys mentioned but entertaining all the same. Though, one that was missing from the lists was Vexx! I don’t know how affiliated this game was with PlayStation. It was on GameCube, but I played it on PS2. So that’s my justification lol. #bringVexxback

Michael Gates

This was an awesome episode, and honestly kind of awkward when Colin was talking about Pixel Opus needing representation. Lol Jim and Herman disagree. ☹️

Tonys_Always_Write

There should be some kind of battle stage or SOMETHING where all the Playsation Racing games get their due. Gran Turismo, Ridge Racer, Motorstorm etc

Christopher Heeley

Kevin Butler, glad Dustin brought it up, and ODB from the Wu-Tang fighting game and a gravel pit stage

Michael Thew

No Kiryu from Yakuza, NO VIB-RIBBON?! NO LARA CROFT?!?! What kind of PlayStation show is this? I'd also consider; a Worm from the Worms series, Pyramid head from Silent Hill, Jehuty from Zone of the Enders, Tony Hawk, from THPS, Max Payne, 47 from Hitman. As for Tekken, Killzone and Resistance; Jin Kazama has been the face of Tekken for nearly two decades now so he should be the pick (maybe Devil Jin), Heihachi is dead and isn't even in the games anymore. A Helghast Trooper should be the Killzone pick (so iconic it's on every box art) and a maybe a Chimera trooper for Resistance.

Christopher Heeley

I would've loved to have seen Death Jr get some respect in this

Sindri

For Killzone, I thought the Helghast soldier also could have been an easily recognisable character.

Mark Corlson

Love this conversation, as a fan of PS All-Stars I spent a lot of time thinking about a sequel. Assuming it's the same kind of platform fighter as the original, I always envisioned that Shadow of the Colossus and Journey would be suited better to being represented with stages. Fighting on the back of the 5th colossus in the sky or in the dessert would be pretty neat. Also thanks, I started watching the Chris Chan documentary and it's actually enthralling.

Jack Fining

No love for Delsin Rowe? Infamous second son was the best infamous game, fight me.

LuisTheTruest

Best part of that Donkey Kong show, it's got musical numbers.

James Pies

I know that Jin is a guarantee but I definitely think Samanosuke from Onimusha is a solid pick! Also loved the GameFAQs character battles every year.

Stoney Gamer

Adding Sonichu would be pretty hype

Walker Simmons

how do you not say pyramid head from silent hill or jill valentine resident evil 1

iain mcmanus

Great, now I've watched episode one of the Chris Chan documentary, immediately after this episode. What have I got myself in for?!

King0fChickens

The Pepsi Man theme is the ring tone on my work phone. (I work for Pepsi's competitor)

Xero

Ethan Mars was all I needed. BEYOND!

Throw7

Monokuma!!

Jin Pak

Fuck yes
