Here’s a guide to get you aware of the combat system of the game, along with terminologies and basics.

Playstation All-Stars Basics

In PASB, there is no indicated Health Bar for your character. Instead, a player relies on the Super Meter to finish off opponents.

You must fill up your Super Meter, which is directly dependent on the amount of AP you have acquired. Filling the meter will allow you to execute one of three levels of ‘supers’. Supers are one-hit insta-kill moves that are unblockable, and are the only way to kill.

Their power relies on how many players they can take out, and the AP is the resource used to fill up the meter.

Supers are discussed further in detail later on, but it was important to understand the basic method with which you finish off enemies.

Controls:

Regular Attacks:
Performed with Square, Triange, and Circle

They can be combined with the directional controls to create different attacks.

Block:
L1 (Sly Cooper turns invisible with L1)

Evade:
L1 + Left Analog Stick

Pick Up/Drop Item:
R1

Jump:
Performed with X

Super:
R2

Taunt:
L2

Throw:
Right Analog Stick


Infinite Avoidance System:
An important combat mechanic to know about in PlayStation All Stars is the Infinite Avoidance System.

Playstation All-Stars features extremely powerful characters from the world of PlayStation (like the god slaying Kratos, the uncatchable Sly Cooper, the impossible-to-kill Heihachi Mishima, and many more), and the team has attempted to make the character as close as possible to their original selves, gameplay balance issues arose because of which the inclusion of a fair-play mechanic was necessary.

Supers:

Supers or Super Attacks are ultimate moves for each character, and are the only way to finish off an enemy.

They are available once the Super Meter is filled to certain amounts.

There are three levels of Supers for every character.

Level 1 Attacks:
Level 1 Attacks are fairly strong and are capable of knocking out one or more fighters. However, their duration is short, and they are unstable.

Level 2 Attacks:
These attacks are more powerful than the Level 1 type, and are capable of taking out multiple fighters. Additionally, they last longer and require less control.

Level 3 Attacks:
Level 3 Supers are the most powerful and generally have the capability to take out all the characters on the screen.

Only thing i hate about this game is that you have to complete the arcade mode 20 times (40(!) times if you play them on ps3 and vita) to platinum it as arcade is boring, takes way too long and some characters are just horrible to play with...

Also o bought it for 35$ for ps3 and vita together, dont think its overpriced for actually 2 games
