Everyone knows the elegant weapon for a more civilized age is the fight stick (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/01/10/the-joystiq-joystick-chapter-1-parts-is-parts/), the tried-and-true sidearm of every fighting game fan the world over. And so SuperBot Entertainment announced on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/notes/superbot-entertainment/playstation-all-stars-supports-arcade-stick-controllers/419840108067325) today that the PS3 version ofPlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale (http://www.joystiq.com/game/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale) will support fight stick peripherals.
"Fans of the fighting game genre can use their favorite arcade-style controller to play Battle Royale to full effect," the Facebook post mentions. "Every attack, combo, and strategy that can be performed on the DualShock 3 controller is seamlessly mapped to arcade button layouts."
Actually, there is one difference between using the fight stick and DualShock 3 – throwing. On the DualShock 3, the move is done using the right analog stick; on a fight stick, it'll be "an easy button combination, similar to many traditional fighting games."
