Popularity polls on the official PlayStation Facebook page have started to reveal what we can only assume are new characters for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, the Smash Bros-esque fighting game set for PS3 (and 99% for Vita).
New characters you can vote on include Uncharted’s Nathan Drake and BioShock’s Big Daddy, which would be an interesting battle in itself. Nathan Drake seems to be winning most polls by a landslide, with Fat Princess far too busy eating cake to actually do any fighting in what looks like being the ultimate Sony fan-service game.
Much more on the game is expected to be revealed during Sony’s E3 conference tonight, which runs at 2am in the morning UK time. We’ll be there – and here – covering it the best we can. Red Bull, here we come…

to be honest, it’d be more surprising if Drake wasn’t in the game.

for a second there i read big daddy and thought of the british wrestler and wondered why he’d be in it, then i remembered bioshock. ^_^

I would be more surprised if Drake wasn’t in the game. Big Daddy however is a surprise.

Yeah Drake was a no brainer but its nice to see some third party characters in the mix too. (could the Big Daddy have been included because of Bioshock Vita?)

Big Daddy would be a great choice for a third party character. No doubt if he features, he’ll have a Little Sister dangling from his shoulder.
If anything, I’m more fascinated in seeing how the dev handles third party fighters more than first party.

I’d want ‘Michael’ from Long Live Play, he sounds tough as girders.

Surely this game must have all the iconic characters from all the Sony exclusives to date- if not, what’s the point of it lol
It’s like Disney all stars not having mickey mouse in
