Astro Bot

I'll gladly let others dive into detailed reviews of the game, but just to briefly explain my personal rating - I'm giving it a solid 9/10, and the only reason it's not a perfect 10 is that multiplayer is missing, which would have added a whole new layer of fun and replayability. However, besides that small omission, this game is truly outstanding and easily stands toe-to-toe with Nintendo's iconic Super Mario 64 in terms of being a revolutionary 3D platformer. It's nothing short of a masterpiece, showcasing both technical and creative brilliance. The level design, gameplay mechanics, and overall experience are among the best I've seen in a long time. In fact, I'd confidently say it's one of the best games released in this entire decade. The sheer attention to detail, the fluidity of movement, and the engaging worlds make it a game that will stand the test of time.

After playing Astro's Playroom it was really cool to see how much Team Asobi expanded on the mechanics of that game with this one. There were more special abilities to use, especially in the end levels of each galaxy.

And there was a ton of physics simulations and particles to go send flying in the air. A lot of stuff was destructible which was cool, and just like in Astros Playroom there was haptic feedback with a lot of things in the game. I really think Team Asobi are masters at haptics because this game was up to the same level of controller feedback as the last one, which I rarely see that level of inclusion in other PS5 games.

There were plenty of levels and each one I think didn't get boring. There were also a lot of levels that had pretty good music. Although the audio mixing could be better on some levels.

ASTRO BOT (2024) is a really great, exciting and super nostalgic game! This game is a special nostalgic treat, as if especially recommended to those gamers (like me) that grew up on the many great PlayStation products over the years, as well as still enjoying them today. If you've ever played the pre-installed "Astro's Playroom", you may have something of an idea of this game, in terms of style and sensation.

This full Astro Bot game utilizes those previously explored areas and so much more. It takes the player on an new epic experience, with new effects, sensations and worlds to explore. Mechanically, the game uses very smooth, very fluid controls making for a very fast paced and

"JOIN ASTRO IN A BRAND-NEW, SUPERSIZED SPACE ADVENTURE! The PS5® mothership has been wrecked, leaving ASTRO and the bot crew scattered all over the galaxies. Time to ride your trusty Dual Speeder across more than 50 planets full of fun, danger and surprises. On your journey, make the most of ASTRO's new powers and reunite with many iconic heroes from the PlayStation universe!"

Overall, this was a really fun play.

Astro's Playroom is a game filled with so much love and attention to detail that it's an absolute joy to play. From the very first moment, you can feel the dedication of the developers to make every little corner of this game an experience. The levels are creatively designed, and the controls are incredibly smooth.

What's especially impressive is how the game plays with nostalgia while also showcasing the new features of the DualSense controller in innovative ways. It's a love letter to PlayStation's history and a must-play for any fan.

For me personally, Astro's Playroom is one of the best games I've ever played. It's not only a technical masterpiece but also a game that is just pure fun and constantly leaves you amazed.

This is the first game I have had an enormous amount of fun playing and discovering everything, and the creative levels and the funny little bots are so cute and adorable. This game feels like the first definitive game for the PS5, Astros playroom was a fun short Miles Morales length game but this is full length game and you can feel all the love and hard work that was put into this, I did not come across 1 single bug or glitch (That shouldn't be something i have to say but with how games come out now i guess that deserves to be mentioned) this is as polished as a classic Nintendo game where it doesn't need a day one patch or anymore updates but the fact Team Asobi is still adding more DLC to this game is great, so far all the speed run levels are still just as fun and thrilling to get a new high score. When I first bought this game I was worried that I had wasted $90 Canadian or that the game wasn't going to be worth it but I was happily proven wrong within the first few minutes of playing it. I don't see this as a "story" game but the one it showed off was cute, funny and great and Astro Bot is one of my favorite PlayStation icons now up there with Kratos, Cole, Jin and Ratchet and clank.

Basically this game is worth the $90 Canadian or the $70 American or whatever I without a doubt recommend this game to anybody who enjoys platformers and wants a fun classic game.
