So the dream of every Playstation fan is having a game that neither represents the Playstation brand in gameplay nor in characters? OK.

huh???
the characters in the game have their movesets taken as directly as possible from the games they're from
and in terms of history all of the most important first party characters are in...
as for third parties like crash and spyro that were important to playstation over a decade ago it has been repeated constantly that the developers rely on the permission of third parties to use those characters

Without Lara Croft, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the Dragon, Cloud Strife, Squall Leonheart, Solid Snake or the original Dante this game does not represent what made Playstation the brand that it is today. Most of the characters in this game are exclusively PS3 affiliated, if even that. And the last 5-6 years are not exactly those where the Sony brand rose to greatness. The games name is All-Stars which implies that those characters had a certain success or impact. With characters like Nariko thats some deep reaching and Mecha Raiden and Punk Dante are completely unproven.
Concerning gameplay, using 2D to represent their "staple" franchises is nothing less than a travesty, but I discussed this before. Would this game be like Anarchy Reigns I wouldn't say a word since 3D was Sony's thing and I have nothing against a mascot brawler for Sony people per se.

nonsense...
ps1: parappa, sweet tooth, sir daniel, heihachi, spike
ps2 : kratos, sly cooper, jak and daxter, rachet and clank, colonel radec, raiden, dante
ps3: fat princess, drake, sack boy, evil cole, cole, nariko, big daddy
i'm honestly unsure of where toro fits in but i'd have to guess either the ps2 or ps1 era
as far the other third party characters absent it has been reiterated a million times that sony does not own those characters and as a result their presense in this game relies solely on whether third parties see fit to share them or not
"Concerning gameplay, using 2D to represent their "staple" franchises is nothing less than a travesty"
your opinion not really sure how its relevant to anything but knock yourself out
"Development of two-dimensional games is to be discouraged for the chief home consoles."
so i'm guessing that you're saying that sony has not developed any 2d games for ps2 and ps3?
