Welcome back to The PlayStation All-Stars Ultimate Roster Showdown! Remember PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale? Despite selling over 1 million copies, DLC support was canceled early on, and the game has been largely forgotten as it's online servers are now closing down. However, there are many PlayStation fans that are hoping for a remaster or even sequel one day, and it is from that love and passion that we created this. Each week, on our official Twitter, we will have a new poll in which we pit two PlayStation icons against each other. Alongside each poll will be an article on the site in which two writers make their case for each of the characters. And finally, every four matchups will get a podcast episode (in this feed) to recap the winners and theorize how they'd fit into the game. After 20 weeks and match ups, we'll have one big podcast to discuss all of the winners and our hopes and dreams for a sequel. This week, Graydon and Emmett go over each of the first 4 matchups of the Showdown and give some constellation prices to the losers. Curious as to who the first winners are? Well, check below for a list, with each of their articles and polls linked below! Match 1: Juan from Guacamelee beat Dart from Legend of Dragoon Match 2: Aya Brea from Parasite Eve lost to Gabe Logan from Syphon Filter Match 3: Chie from Persona 4 washed Claptrap from Borderlands Match 4: Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn vs. Big Boss from the Metal Gear Solid series
