Sony's Teaser Vids Lead To Live-Action PlayStation All-Stars Trailer
PlayStation All-Stars Battle RoyaleSo what did "The Reload," "The Arrival," and "The Aftermath" signify? Something totally earth-shattering as some had hoped?
Eh, not really. After Sony teased the heck out of a big new announcement, it turns out that behind the secret door lurked...PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.
Not that this isn't a really cool trailer, and not that we think the game will be disappointing. It's just that when it comes to such marketing, one tends to assume they're gonna reveal something we've never seen before. Then again, it is the only top-tier PS3 exclusive for the holiday season and therefore, Sony is right to push it. Furthermore, they need to push it, given the typically stiff competition from heavy-hitting titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Assassin's Creed III.
At any rate, this is a pretty great vid.

I'm wondering what surprises(or dangers) are inside or linked to them.

I was hoping for a new, unannounced game but the trailer is pretty neat though.

...I really feel it's more of personal kind of thing I have to play with my friends to really believe how amazing it is. But there's always one main question buzzing around in my head.
...is SOLID SNAKE GONNA BE IN THIS?! Because I haven't seen any like super super official announcement/video/quote/gameplay announcement about him when I just check the regular news on gaming and all. I remember there was a tweet by the casting director(?) about how David Hayter was working on it.
..but can anyone absolutely confirm that he's actually coming. Don't see how it can be PlayStation All Stars without Snake.

Now, "this" trailer below is what I call great game advertising....
You can now play Assassin's Creed's new free interactive "Battle of Bunker Hill" mission trailer....

(raiden, shang tsung, quan chi --> cole, sack boy, drake)
joining forces to combat a greater threat
(onaga --> kratos)
side note: lol i just noticed the way i listed the characters actually matches up quite well
raiden - cole
both have power over lightning
shang tsung - sack boy
both can change their appearance, and a variety of powers
quan chi - drake
this one isn the best, but if you think about it, quan chi stumbles upon onaga's tomb (somewhat of a lost treasure) and drake himself is a treasure hunter always looking for lost cities, riches,etc.
and even the onaga - kratos pairing works
onaga finds the kamidogu that grant him god like strength
kratos finds pandora's box, which helps give him the power to defeat ares

seriously, all this hype for a crappy super smash brothers wannabe?
really?
why dont they hype up games that actually deserve it like this?
priorities all screwed up, games that should be promoted get left in the dark, and games that shouldent get put in the light of hollywood.
sigh, ill never understand $onys logic.
i always said they were run by a bunch of apes, but now im truly starting to believe it!

Glad Sony is attempting a legit marketing campaign (hopefully we see these ads on TV). After seeing the first video I was hoping for an inFamous 3 announcement. However after the next two teaser ads popped up it was pretty clear it was leading up to something All-Stars related. Cool commerical nonetheless. I'm glad that they are using their biggest franchises (God of War, Uncharted, LBP, inFamous) to headline the action.
