As someone that owns all 3 main current consoles and plays the hell out of all of them, this was truly one of the best current gen games ive played, first game in a long time ive gone through the effort of getting that elusive 100%
My 12 year old just finished it. My 10 year old is 3/4 quarters of the way through. They smile so much playing this game. The best indicator of this game's success with rhem, when they get killed, they don't get irritated but they try again. They don't see the game as frustrating, they see themselves having to get better. They don't quit, they evolve. If their current approach doesn't work, they try a different method instead.and win the level. Smiling most of the time. "This is so much fun" they constantly say.
@af6456 what do you mean why? It's got other games comparable to astro bot that kids would love. Mario Odyssey, Kirby and the forgotten land, super mario Bros Wonder, etc
@@af6456if they love this game, you should almost surely get a switch, which has many games like super mario odyssey which give off a similar vibe maybe get them a wii, they’ll almost definetely enjoy the mario galaxy series if they enjoyed this
You ever play the 3D Kirby game on switch? I think this game is far more similar to that than the 3D Mario’s. Not a knock at all - that Kirby game is awesome
FUN FACT: Nebulax (the goopy green alien) is based on the alien from My Alien Buddy, a subgame in The Playroom for PS4 (2013). My Alien Buddy was developed by Double Fine (Psychonauts, Brutal Legend), which explains why Nebulax looks so different compared to any other character in Astro Bot! FUN FACT 2: Team Asobi, the devs of Astro Bot, is a Japanese developer led by... a French guy?! That's right! Nicolas Doucet moved to Japan to work with Sony in 2011. In April 2021, he was made the lead of Team Asobi following the departure of other senior staff. Looks like it was the right call, since Astro Bot is probably PS5's best game (and that means a lot coming from me, a die-hard Spidey fanboy).
I was blown by how … CUTE?!?! this game is?!?! Like everything is so charming, all the lil bots make cute noises and their actions are super neat! The gameplay looks so fluid and bouncy??? This game just exudes fun ❤❤ This game makes me wish I owned a PS5 just for this lol
The devs have shown interest in a PC port, if people request it. I’d love to play it again there along with Astro’s Playroom which is also a blast (and free with every PS5).
As a speedrunner for this game I think you very much underestimated the amount of movement mechanics and skips that already exist in this game lol. I’d recommend checking out the records for individual levels like “Downsize Surprise”, “Wormy Passage”, “Furnace Fever”, or even a level as simple as “Creamy Canyon”. Some of the things people have already figured out are insane, and Astro’s movement can be really fluid.
Just watched a Furnace Fever Speedrun based on your recommendation. The moves and exploits being employed are impressive. Looking forward to seeing how quickly some of these levels get beaten.
ikr i play on my switch because of its portability and because i love the exclusives but if there was a truly portable modern playstation console i would consider buying it (tho judging by today's sony it would be expensive)
I began my life as an avid Nintendo fan, with the SNES back in the early 90s. Since then I've been firmly on the Playstation side of things, from the PS1 all the way to today's PS5. But even though characters like Crash, Spyro and Ratchet have made up the majority of my personal gaming history, I'll always retain a soft spot for Mario and the gang. To me, both sides can live together and have fun together. Because really, what else are games for, if not to give us fun? ^_^
The norm these days is to own a Switch and a PS5, bub. Before that, a PS4 and a 3DS… What I’m saying is, why choose when you can enjoy both worlds? Though I understand Sony is not on a great position at the moment and is in dire need of big support to continue their legacy to the next gen, so please do continue supporting them.
i moved to Sony once i got out of my teenager stage. owned a ps2 aged 17/18 never looked back since but some of us move away from the kid like games but the fact this game is a throwback to 30 years of playstation makes me smile
To me a fanboy usually is exceedingly apologetic and closed minded about whatever they're "fanboying" about. Your company is perfect, pointing out mistakes = hate/jealousy. Using other products = treason. Your friend seems open minded about though (aside from obvious jokes) which is good because there's more fun to be had that way ^^ I loved Astro bot especially because it borrows many mechanics from any 3D plattformer ever. You've got varying level themes, a map, a small hub world, secret exits and so on, it delivers exactly what I hope for in a 3D plattformer. They're rare, especially 3D Marios and I am perfectly fine with Astro the way it is. It's just adorable ❤
Astro Bot is by far one of the greatest games of it's genre. I love how they made a mission called "Bot of War: RagnaBot) where in that mission your Kratos Bot and get Keratoses Axe and is able to throw and recall it just like "God of War: Ragnarok". Astro Bot is my GOTY.
I think the Nintendo Fanboy is starting to give in - here's the next video of him playing MORE Astro Bot! th-cam.com/video/5ixYNvrwK_k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=QlfCbQPqSpTgTg5A
Until he realizes the levels are identical to past Nintendo games they did not do anything except copy Nintendo levels and give them a pretty nice paint job. The creativity is all Nintendo so there is your non-bias report from a true gamer:P The game Crash Bandicoot by Naughty Dog was a platformer that rivaled Nintendo and was completely new and was created by not doing what Nintendo does.
I got the platinum trophy for this game just a few days ago and enjoyed every second of it....even if some of the challenge stages were incredibly frustrating lmao
I absolutely love Mario and grew up playing Super Mario World on the SNES. Been playing every mainline Mario game and have enjoyed every single one especially Mario Odyssey. I think Astro Bot is a stellar game. I’m not going to be some stickler or act like a pretentious gamer. If a game is great then a game is great whether it is inspired by Mario or not. I think both Mario and Astro Bot are one of the most joyful games ever and I look forward to some Astro Bot sequels if Sony ends up going for it.
That's THREE Nintendo fanboys that I know love Astro Bot~ 0:10 Awwww, Mario plushies 0:55 I will be taking detailed notes! Also I will only count joyful laughs directed at the game, not at a Basement joke ⁂ 1:20 He likes the polish! ✅ 1:40 This is not the last Mario Galaxy parallel you will see, not by a LONG shot 2:10 Points for DualShock ✅ 🎶 2:30 OHHHH~ ✅ 3:05 "Okay, THAT'S good design, right there!" ✅ ✨ 3:25 "He punches you because he likes you, silly!" 3:40 Music Note glee laugh ✅ 😂 4:25 "I like the music here" ✅🎶 4:40 You know, that's a good point!

Maybe the closest to a Sony mascot could've been Spyro, but he's only had three major series (including Skylanders), so he doesn't have that same broad brand appeal that Mario and Sonic did- And I think all of those were Sony... does Microsoft have any specific characters like that? 5:10 Remember when Nintendo and Sony almost collaborated but they instead created their worst enemy 5:45 "The feel is excellent" you heard it here first, folks! ✅ ✨ 6:25 Looks like the Discord logo 6:35 Glee laughs and giggles!

You're gonna break the poor guy 27:40 Accurate sound design ✅ 🎶 28:00 The noises you're making make this even more fun 28:15 I think this is a Basement joke laugh, so I won't count that ⁂ 28:50 "I have to admit I had fun" ✅ Very very good start 29:00 I will, at the bottom~ 29:15 There's a LOT going on, but he'd love it as a kid; Very exciting, characters want to be your friend but NOT annoying, 29:35 Like dessert - enjoyable if you stop at just the right time 29:55 Ted Question: A perfect game? 30:10 Peter: Too early to cast judgement, but the building blocks are there. He doesn't know if there can be a PERFECT game .. maybe Tetris? Really, Really, Really good 30:50 Feel good 3D platformer 31:10 Brand loyalty would've had an impact 31:25 Astro Boy LOL 🤖 That's a very different boy robot. I've seen all of them except the Pluto anime, I need to see that one SIR PETER'S FINAL THOUGHTS: Really good! I'll say A - highly enjoyable, not that many legitimate gripes about the game so far ⁂ Okay, you've heard Sir Peter's final review, but now it's time to tally the Enjoyment Statistics! Good Game Designs ✅ ✨: 3 Haptics (Touch) ✅ ✋: 3 Sound Design ✅ 🎶: 4 Gleeful Laughs ✅ 😂: 10 General Fun ✅: 10 (Final review comments all count as one) Final score: 30 Exclamations of Enjoyment That's about one exclamation per minute! (Or .946 to be exact, since Sir Peter is a math person. I hope I'm right or he'll know instantly). I think that's really good in general, but especially when it comes to a non-Nintendo game. Well done, Astro Bot! If I had a PS5, I'd get it myself!
210K Hype! Congrats. Also, I have been looking forward to this since this game came out. So excited that you guys were able to put out a couple of videos about it. Oh, and 220K subscriber hype!
Astro Bot has been the best platformer I've played and I have played all Mario's etc... it's so interactive due to the controller haptic triggers and its amazing
I’ve not touched my switch since getting this game, it’s the best thing I’ve seen on PS, just so well polished. Wish my Xbox controllers had sound and haptics like the PS ones do.
3 years and what would likely be a smaller budget than most other games. The kind of game the industry looks and says “What are we even _doing_ over here?”
No that's not Sly Cooper at 7:34. That's Rivet from Rachet and Clank Rift Apart. She's a pretty recent character and in the game she's AWESOME!!!!! And the one that looked just like her that you collected earlier is Ratchet.
People are missing out on Astro Bot: Rescue Mission, the PS VR game. It’s so good, it ruined flat 3D platformers for me a bit. I still love them, but even playing this amazing game I just lamented that it wasn’t also in PSVR2. It was like playing Super Mario 64 for the first time, in that it felt genuinely like something I’ve never experienced before. Felt the same with Astro’s Playroom and its use of the DualSense and Tearaway on the PS Vita.
I've grown up on PS1 and games like Crash and Spyro, then drifted away from platformers. A year ago I rediscovered Jak & Daxter, another ND classic through OpenGOAL PC port, played through 1 and 2 and collected everything I could. And I only recently discovered Super Mario Odyssey and played that game as well. I had an absolute blast, collected all (at least 90% on some) of the stars before I even moved on to the next world. Nothing in any of these games felt like Ubisoft checklist gaming, everything was fluent, fun and natural. exploring the Mario movement was great (though, I'm getting to old for the most intricate ones :D ), and then I played Astro bot, actually worried I might dislike the "simpler" movement set, but in the end it took me 2 days and 23 hours of game time to get the platinum (right after I finished Astro's Playroom and got the platinum there) and I absolutely loved it. The references hit home hard, levels were fun to explore and if Astro bot 2 came out with identical gameplay but 5 new worlds to explore, I'd be first in line. Sadly that's not how I feel about Odyssey.. When I finished that, and got all stars on peach's castle, I lost the drive to go to the dark/darker sides of the moon even though I had unlocked those, and going back to all the worlds to get the remaining stars didn't seem as much fun because of how some stars are basically impossible to find with less than 350 IQ.. It was fun and amazing while it lasted, and it served it's course, but Astro bot I want more of, and I can't wait for next Thursday for the new speedrun level
I don´t know if it´s the perfect game, or if it´s the best game of its kind. What I do know is that me, and my 4 year old son enjoyed this game like crazy. I never bonded with my dad with a videogame. What Sony achieved is a core memory for my son and, for that, this game will have a very, very special place in my heart.
The bot early in the video was not Sly Cooper, it's that female character from the new Ratchet and Clank (don't know her name) But Sly Cooper does appear in a later level Also I totally get him saying 'pressing the X button' even though it isn't an X since I play on multiple platforms and whenever I change console I have to look down to the controller to be sure what the button layout is
I was a Sega Fan back in the 8 and 16 bit days and I also believe I was also on the right side of history. Nowadays I play Nintendo as well as Playstation. Both have good and bad games. I had fun with Astros playroom and I was disappointed at the Astro Bot announcement because it has no VR2 support. But damn, this game is so good. Mario Odyssey was the best 3D platformer to me so far. Astro Bot is actually even better.
I just got Astro Bot for PSVR for PS4, but have not has time to play it yet. Plan to start it up this weekend. The sample is really fun, so excited for the full game. The striped ears bot is Ratchet from Ratchet and Clank.
You're going to be blown away. It's truly a testament to how good a platformer can be. I was personally more impressed with Astrobot: Rescue Mission than the newer Astrobot, but they're pretty much the same game
Ive been gaming for over 40 years and have always been a Nintendo fan first and foremost, and that’ll never change. I own every Nintendo console and every Sony console as well. Let’s face it, there’s things you’re not going to get on Nintendo, and things you’re not gonna get on either Sony or Xbox. Astro Bot is an amazing game, anyone into 3D platformers is going to love this. The game is so polished and so interactive, it’s just a really immersive world. Music is amazing, just like Astro’s Playgroynd. It improves on AP in the best ways it could have. I really love how you have to kick the bots that you save in the ass to get them. It’s everything you’d expect it to be and more. Almost worth buying a PS5 just to play both Astro games.
I love all systems. I truly enjoyed astro bot. I got the platinum trophy yesterday. With some new games coming out over the next few months my switch will finally get some love.
You can tell he's a Nintendo fan by how little he cares about the premise of the video and immediately is just having a fun time. I've also noticed more direct Mario lifts than Playstation refrences. More fun platformers is good for everyone.
This was fun :) I didn't see if Peter saw the mechanic where if you start an already played level you have an optional single unlock floating bird thingy to help you find the rest of the secrets? That's a really nice implementation of that feature, I thought. A bit similar to the ring in Uncharted: Lost Legacy
Astro Bot is honestly better than most, if not, all Nintendo first-party games in my opinion. The level design, content, and celebration of the PlayStation brand genuinely is why this is the main GOTY contender.
Yeah no, lol. Astro bot is amazing, but I'm sorry, it's nowhere at the level of nintendo's IP. Over 40 years of history and this single game is better than all of that? No, just no.
It's an incredible game no doubt, a phenomenal platforming game, but to say it's better than ALL of nintendo's first party IP is definitely a bit of a stretch
Every single thing in astrobot is copied from a mario game even the intro sequence is just mario odyssey which is a much better game in every single way LMAO play mario odyssey right now
@@repingers9777Mario Odyssey was whack. Galaxy 1 is the best platformer in my personal opinion. Rayman 2 was better than Banjo Kazooie on Nintendo 64. Nintendo is not the end all, be all of platforming games.
The three special bots you collect in Creamy Canyon are references to the Metal Gear series. The first one in the tree is Solid Snake, the second one captured by UFO is Psycho Mantis, the boss that makes you plug in your controller in port 2, and the third in the special room is Gray Fox. The first two special bots in the starter level are Ratchet and Clank references. The one tied to the tree is Ratchet, and the one in the aquarium is Ratchet's female counterpart Rivet.
Agreed. I (Ted) like playstation games, but so many of them are made for adults to enjoy, I can't share a lot of those experiences with my kids until they're at least 12, and some I don't ever want to experience with them because of awkward adult scenes. They can play that when they're older on their own. But this game is so good, I hope Sony makes more stuff that can be fun and appropriate for all ages. I don't think it's too big of an ask.
I love astrobot in VR in its original form I like astrobot playroom that comes with the PS5 but astrobot rescue mission is the best vr platform ever so Sony needs a VR Mode for this game and fast
He at the beging saying "yup" confirming he's a fanboy makes me think, he either doesn't know what exactly fanboy means or he's just shameless. Because being a Fanboy (= doesn't matter what it does, you still like/follow them blindly, something that is a curse) is different than something's Fan.
Also sony had a mario, they've had multiple but they always abandon them as soon as they have one mid game, sackboy was their previous mascot but he got abandoned after fans said LBP 3 didn't do enough innovation
11:08 … they had snow like that in Mario odyssey. The way they did it here and in Mario odyssey is not super computationally expensive the type that deforms depending on the actual feet or the character is this one is just a radius around player snow height = 0
This could become my favorite game of all time (if I played it), but I would just become a fan of Team Asobi. If Sony starts making games more like Astro Bot, then we'll talk. Sony has had mascots, as displayed by Crash Bandicoot. Astro Bot could be a good mascot, but I don't see them doing it, as easy as it could be. And I don't think it's enough to compare to Mario if Astro Bot is stuck to platformers, but at least Astrobot makes for a good brand image AND method of showing off console capabilities. Astro Bot could be very flexible ngl. Microsoft has Master Chief, who I think DOES hold a candle to Mario, except Halo is too different from Super Mario to really try comparing them closely. Overall, Astro Bot is a character I would love to see more of, and if Sony ever released a handheld form of device with Astrobot now as their untainted brand image, I'm not gonna lie, I might be there before I'm with Nintendo. That is a very specific scenario that I have no reason to believe will happen, but the hopium kinda exists. Not really.
I got 3 minutes and 43 seconds in doing this but it was too much and I wanted to enjoy the video so here’s you go: 1:23 Compliment on game’s polish 1:29 Compliment on the PS5 ship being funny (maybe followed by a chuckle?) 2:00 Small chuckle 2:14 Compliment on use of controller 2:18 Gasp of joy about the controller again 2:36 Gleeful sound, followed by a giggle of happiness 3:01 Giggles after punching a fox 3:15 Compliment on game’s design “Felt really good” “I punched him… He’s happy!” 3:39 More giggles
I think the game is perfect for us Sony fanboys just because of the nostalgia. Also the special levels based off of Sony exclusive like the GoW level and the Uncharted level those are just amazing and i loved every second of them. I just started the fourth world and cannot wait to see what it's going to be.
Me and my ten year old daughter played a couple of jump n runs over the last couple of years, mostly Mario games and none of those was as much fun as Astro bot. Highly recommend playing this!
He thought this was too easy... so I made him play some of the hardest levels in Astro Bot...

As a lifelong Nintendo fan, I gotta say, this does look fun.
I have it and it’s a lot of fun. It reminds me of the n64 games like banjo kazooie, Mario 64 and donkey Kong 64 a lot.
It’s super fun
I agree
Love super Mario odyssey and super Mario world but this game is within top 5 best platform games of all time to me
True
I actually find it kinda weird they released Mario Galaxy 3 but released on the ps5 and replaced Mario with robots
lol
What can we say, robots are taking humans’ jobs. Even Mario’s, it seems 😂
And replaced all the Nintendo characters with PlayStation cameos. How odd
You ever play the 3D Kirby game on switch? I think this game is far more similar to that than the 3D Mario’s. Not a knock at all - that Kirby game is awesome
FUN FACT: Nebulax (the goopy green alien) is based on the alien from My Alien Buddy, a subgame in The Playroom for PS4 (2013). My Alien Buddy was developed by Double Fine (Psychonauts, Brutal Legend), which explains why Nebulax looks so different compared to any other character in Astro Bot!
FUN FACT 2: Team Asobi, the devs of Astro Bot, is a Japanese developer led by... a French guy?! That's right! Nicolas Doucet moved to Japan to work with Sony in 2011. In April 2021, he was made the lead of Team Asobi following the departure of other senior staff. Looks like it was the right call, since Astro Bot is probably PS5's best game (and that means a lot coming from me, a die-hard Spidey fanboy).
I was blown by how … CUTE?!?! this game is?!?! Like everything is so charming, all the lil bots make cute noises and their actions are super neat! The gameplay looks so fluid and bouncy??? This game just exudes fun ❤❤
This game makes me wish I owned a PS5 just for this lol
I don't remember the last time I've smiled so much playing a video game, it's really special
All the sounds effects and animations and physics are really good in this game…oh and the music
Haptic features are soo good you could almost convince me that there are actually little bots inside my controller lol
It’s like “8k rumble”
The devs have shown interest in a PC port, if people request it. I’d love to play it again there along with Astro’s Playroom which is also a blast (and free with every PS5).
As a speedrunner for this game I think you very much underestimated the amount of movement mechanics and skips that already exist in this game lol. I’d recommend checking out the records for individual levels like “Downsize Surprise”, “Wormy Passage”, “Furnace Fever”, or even a level as simple as “Creamy Canyon”. Some of the things people have already figured out are insane, and Astro’s movement can be really fluid.
Just watched a Furnace Fever Speedrun based on your recommendation. The moves and exploits being employed are impressive. Looking forward to seeing how quickly some of these levels get beaten.
Make peace, not war. All consoles can co-exist. And the term "Fanboy" is ussualy used for people i would call: "Radicalist". A true fan likes all.

i play on my switch because of its portability and because i love the exclusives but if there was a truly portable modern playstation console i would consider buying it (tho judging by today's sony it would be expensive)
We need a little war otherwise Sony will sell you a disc drive and a stand separately….ohh wait!
@@Diamoondust ps portal is basically a portable PS5, but you need a ps5 for it and good internet.
@@confuseddog6746 so it's not a portable ps5...
hope yall keep playing this game
We definitely will! If we can continue to find ways to make it extra fun to watch, we will make more videos, too!
You gotta show him Astro's Playroom, he will be just respected on the Consoles & devices he will find
Astro bot rescue mission is the real goat
I began my life as an avid Nintendo fan, with the SNES back in the early 90s. Since then I've been firmly on the Playstation side of things, from the PS1 all the way to today's PS5. But even though characters like Crash, Spyro and Ratchet have made up the majority of my personal gaming history, I'll always retain a soft spot for Mario and the gang. To me, both sides can live together and have fun together. Because really, what else are games for, if not to give us fun? ^_^
The norm these days is to own a Switch and a PS5, bub. Before that, a PS4 and a 3DS… What I’m saying is, why choose when you can enjoy both worlds?
Though I understand Sony is not on a great position at the moment and is in dire need of big support to continue their legacy to the next gen, so please do continue supporting them.
@@Bouncing_Pig I don't really get comments like this. The PS5 is selling faster than PS4 and has sold a lot.
i moved to Sony once i got out of my teenager stage. owned a ps2 aged 17/18 never looked back since but some of us move away from the kid like games but the fact this game is a throwback to 30 years of playstation makes me smile
To me a fanboy usually is exceedingly apologetic and closed minded about whatever they're "fanboying" about. Your company is perfect, pointing out mistakes = hate/jealousy. Using other products = treason.
Your friend seems open minded about though (aside from obvious jokes) which is good because there's more fun to be had that way ^^
I loved Astro bot especially because it borrows many mechanics from any 3D plattformer ever. You've got varying level themes, a map, a small hub world, secret exits and so on, it delivers exactly what I hope for in a 3D plattformer. They're rare, especially 3D Marios and I am perfectly fine with Astro the way it is. It's just adorable ❤
Astro Bot is by far one of the greatest games of it's genre. I love how they made a mission called "Bot of War: RagnaBot) where in that mission your Kratos Bot and get Keratoses Axe and is able to throw and recall it just like "God of War: Ragnarok". Astro Bot is my GOTY.
“Ahhh! I can’t decide which to watch! Basement craft or basement! Ohh but I do think this one is better.” Every basement fan

I think the Nintendo Fanboy is starting to give in - here's the next video of him playing MORE Astro Bot!

Until he realizes the levels are identical to past Nintendo games they did not do anything except copy Nintendo levels and give them a pretty nice paint job. The creativity is all Nintendo so there is your non-bias report from a true gamer:P The game Crash Bandicoot by Naughty Dog was a platformer that rivaled Nintendo and was completely new and was created by not doing what Nintendo does.
this game is amazing every world is so different you don't know whats going on next. I've been left in awe at some stages and bosses
I got the platinum trophy for this game just a few days ago and enjoyed every second of it....even if some of the challenge stages were incredibly frustrating lmao
i gotta watch this again once i finally get a playstation again.
If you are getting a PS5, I’m so envious of you. You’ll get to play a lot of great games for the first time.

I absolutely love Mario and grew up playing Super Mario World on the SNES. Been playing every mainline Mario game and have enjoyed every single one especially Mario Odyssey. I think Astro Bot is a stellar game. I’m not going to be some stickler or act like a pretentious gamer. If a game is great then a game is great whether it is inspired by Mario or not.
I think both Mario and Astro Bot are one of the most joyful games ever and I look forward to some Astro Bot sequels if Sony ends up going for it.
I’m not sure what the perfect game looks like, but Astrobot is absolutely fantastic.
The perfect game looks like Super Mario World on the SNES
@@DonkeyFilms Great? Sure. Perfect? Not for me.
Nah the perfect game is Pikmin 4. Truly an amazing experience playing it after waiting years for a sequel after 3.
He didn't even see the immense versatility and sweet ending this game has and was already close to calling it perfect
That's THREE Nintendo fanboys that I know love Astro Bot~
0:10 Awwww, Mario plushies
0:55 I will be taking detailed notes! Also I will only count joyful laughs directed at the game, not at a Basement joke

1:20 He likes the polish! ✅
1:40 This is not the last Mario Galaxy parallel you will see, not by a LONG shot
2:10 Points for DualShock ✅ 🎶
2:30 OHHHH~ ✅

3:25 "He punches you because he likes you, silly!"
3:40 Music Note glee laugh ✅ 😂
4:25 "I like the music here" ✅🎶
4:40 You know, that's a good point! I don't know if Sony or Microsoft have actual mascots like SEGA did back in the day- sure they have a few flagship franchises like Sly Cooper, Ratchet and Clank... Maybe the closest to a Sony mascot could've been Spyro, but he's only had three major series (including Skylanders), so he doesn't have that same broad brand appeal that Mario and Sonic did- And I think all of those were Sony... does Microsoft have any specific characters like that?
5:10 Remember when Nintendo and Sony almost collaborated but they instead created their worst enemy
5:45 "The feel is excellent" you heard it here first, folks! ✅ ✨
6:25 Looks like the Discord logo

12:50 You can't 180° - legitimate concern
13:15 A 94 and it's the fourth best rating of all time? Metacritic is one tough customer it seems- (well a bunch of tough customers but I digress). And it's only beaten by Mario titles in the 3D platformer category. Huh... now THAT is interesting
13:35 Banjo Kazooie?!
13:45 That's interesting, considering you guys Let's Played Odyssey but still haven't finished Galaxy

14:50 Oooohhhh~
15:10 "Nintendo did this in the 80s" Well EVERYTHING has technically been done before sooo, haha; I honestly thought the patterns reminded me of Tears of the Kingdom
15:30 Oh no! Bad immoral Koala
15:45 I have never seen this LOL - maybe Crash was their mascot back then idk
16:00 SEGA was your arch nemesis back then so understandable. Now it's Sarah Jessica Parker

19:00 Wait... Is that the area boss?! I just realized that!
19:25 It's copying both the big guys!
19:55 Ooooh it's Boss Time
20:40 OH NO! It's a THINNER BRIDGE
21:05 I love how the game punished your sarcasm
21:10 That IS a nice Pompadour
21:20 You could've left it at "that game show in Japan" and still have been accurate- but yes, I see some Hole in the Wall in here

30:50 Feel good 3D platformer
31:10 Brand loyalty would've had an impact
31:25 Astro Boy LOL 🤖 That's a very different boy robot. I've seen all of them except the Pluto anime, I need to see that one
SIR PETER'S FINAL THOUGHTS: Really good! I'll say A - highly enjoyable, not that many legitimate gripes about the game so far
⁂
Okay, you've heard Sir Peter's final review, but now it's time to tally the Enjoyment Statistics!
Good Game Designs ✅ ✨: 3
Haptics (Touch) ✅ ✋: 3
Sound Design ✅ 🎶: 4
Gleeful Laughs ✅ 😂: 10
General Fun ✅: 10 (Final review comments all count as one)
Final score: 30 Exclamations of Enjoyment
That's about one exclamation per minute! (Or .946 to be exact, since Sir Peter is a math person. I hope I'm right or he'll know instantly). I think that's really good in general, but especially when it comes to a non-Nintendo game.
Well done, Astro Bot! If I had a PS5, I'd get it myself!
At 7:30, it was actually Rivet.
@@ThorWilhelms Ahhh, thank you!
" is that sly Cooper?" Okay that one hurt. That's rivet from Ratchet and Clank
Astro bot does what nintendon't
210K Hype! Congrats. Also, I have been looking forward to this since this game came out. So excited that you guys were able to put out a couple of videos about it. Oh, and 220K subscriber hype!
Astro Bot has been the best platformer I've played and I have played all Mario's etc... it's so interactive due to the controller haptic triggers and its amazing
That “Sly Cooper” at around 7:40 is Rivet from Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart
I’ve not touched my switch since getting this game, it’s the best thing I’ve seen on PS, just so well polished. Wish my Xbox controllers had sound and haptics like the PS ones do.
I am so in love with this game. I am here for any and all sequels they make. I'd love to get one per year honestly.
This is the third Astro bot game isn’t it
Although the first Astro bot game was a psvr exclusive
Dude ASTRO BOT changed my view on the gaming industry as a whole!
3 years and what would likely be a smaller budget than most other games. The kind of game the industry looks and says “What are we even _doing_ over here?”
@@Yu7Zithe gaming industry -Nintendo
No that's not Sly Cooper at 7:34. That's Rivet from Rachet and Clank Rift Apart. She's a pretty recent character and in the game she's AWESOME!!!!! And the one that looked just like her that you collected earlier is Ratchet.
People are missing out on Astro Bot: Rescue Mission, the PS VR game. It’s so good, it ruined flat 3D platformers for me a bit. I still love them, but even playing this amazing game I just lamented that it wasn’t also in PSVR2. It was like playing Super Mario 64 for the first time, in that it felt genuinely like something I’ve never experienced before. Felt the same with Astro’s Playroom and its use of the DualSense and Tearaway on the PS Vita.
Best comment on this thread.
Best part is that it keeps surprising you as you go along.
7:30 “Is that Sly Cooper?” had me dying 😂😂
Astro Bot to the moon!
This is amazing I really want this game and also can you try swimming through the kakariko waterfall where they get the water from
ooo interesting idea!
I was so hoping yall would play this game! I’m so excited!! Astro Bot is pure joy.
such a fun and delightful game!
“Oh, they left a little snow down there” with Astro just standing over the edge, felt like if Astro actually said that😅
I smiled for about 99.9% of this game. It was an absolute joy from start to finish
16:45 “who’s that”
Me: 😢
“Is that Sly Cooper?” 🤦♂️
I play Nintendo AND PlayStation since 2009.
I preordered Astro Bot right after i saw the first trailer months ago 😆

I've grown up on PS1 and games like Crash and Spyro, then drifted away from platformers. A year ago I rediscovered Jak & Daxter, another ND classic through OpenGOAL PC port, played through 1 and 2 and collected everything I could. And I only recently discovered Super Mario Odyssey and played that game as well. I had an absolute blast, collected all (at least 90% on some) of the stars before I even moved on to the next world. Nothing in any of these games felt like Ubisoft checklist gaming, everything was fluent, fun and natural. exploring the Mario movement was great (though, I'm getting to old for the most intricate ones :D ), and then I played Astro bot, actually worried I might dislike the "simpler" movement set, but in the end it took me 2 days and 23 hours of game time to get the platinum (right after I finished Astro's Playroom and got the platinum there) and I absolutely loved it. The references hit home hard, levels were fun to explore and if Astro bot 2 came out with identical gameplay but 5 new worlds to explore, I'd be first in line. Sadly that's not how I feel about Odyssey.. When I finished that, and got all stars on peach's castle, I lost the drive to go to the dark/darker sides of the moon even though I had unlocked those, and going back to all the worlds to get the remaining stars didn't seem as much fun because of how some stars are basically impossible to find with less than 350 IQ.. It was fun and amazing while it lasted, and it served it's course, but Astro bot I want more of, and I can't wait for next Thursday for the new speedrun level
I don´t know if it´s the perfect game, or if it´s the best game of its kind. What I do know is that me, and my 4 year old son enjoyed this game like crazy. I never bonded with my dad with a videogame. What Sony achieved is a core memory for my son and, for that, this game will have a very, very special place in my heart.
Not Sly, Rivet from Ratchet and Clank: ARA on the PS5.
The bot early in the video was not Sly Cooper, it's that female character from the new Ratchet and Clank (don't know her name)
But Sly Cooper does appear in a later level
Also I totally get him saying 'pressing the X button' even though it isn't an X since I play on multiple platforms and whenever I change console I have to look down to the controller to be sure what the button layout is
You had me at "quantifiable evidence" 😂.
I was a Sega Fan back in the 8 and 16 bit days and I also believe I was also on the right side of history.
Nowadays I play Nintendo as well as Playstation. Both have good and bad games. I had fun with Astros playroom and I was disappointed at the Astro Bot announcement because it has no VR2 support. But damn, this game is so good. Mario Odyssey was the best 3D platformer to me so far. Astro Bot is actually even better.
I just got Astro Bot for PSVR for PS4, but have not has time to play it yet. Plan to start it up this weekend. The sample is really fun, so excited for the full game. The striped ears bot is Ratchet from Ratchet and Clank.
It’s fun, only thing is that the psvr has like 1000 wires
You're going to be blown away. It's truly a testament to how good a platformer can be. I was personally more impressed with Astrobot: Rescue Mission than the newer Astrobot, but they're pretty much the same game
Ive been gaming for over 40 years and have always been a Nintendo fan first and foremost, and that’ll never change. I own every Nintendo console and every Sony console as well. Let’s face it, there’s things you’re not going to get on Nintendo, and things you’re not gonna get on either Sony or Xbox. Astro Bot is an amazing game, anyone into 3D platformers is going to love this. The game is so polished and so interactive, it’s just a really immersive world. Music is amazing, just like Astro’s Playgroynd. It improves on AP in the best ways it could have. I really love how you have to kick the bots that you save in the ass to get them. It’s everything you’d expect it to be and more. Almost worth buying a PS5 just to play both Astro games.
This game is better than any mario game has ever been
Can’t beat Super Mario 3D World, that game is top tier for it’s price
I love all systems. I truly enjoyed astro bot. I got the platinum trophy yesterday. With some new games coming out over the next few months my switch will finally get some love.
You can tell he's a Nintendo fan by how little he cares about the premise of the video and immediately is just having a fun time. I've also noticed more direct Mario lifts than Playstation refrences. More fun platformers is good for everyone.
I like both you guys. Astro Bot is amazzzing, almost done beating it. It reminded me of Mario Galaxy but (gasp) better. Who knew Sony had it in them?
It's a great game. And I gotta say, it took five generations but finally Playstation has its mascot.
This was fun :) I didn't see if Peter saw the mechanic where if you start an already played level you have an optional single unlock floating bird thingy to help you find the rest of the secrets? That's a really nice implementation of that feature, I thought. A bit similar to the ring in Uncharted: Lost Legacy
Astro Bot is honestly better than most, if not, all Nintendo first-party games in my opinion.
The level design, content, and celebration of the PlayStation brand genuinely is why this is the main GOTY contender.
Yeah no, lol. Astro bot is amazing, but I'm sorry, it's nowhere at the level of nintendo's IP. Over 40 years of history and this single game is better than all of that? No, just no.
It's an incredible game no doubt, a phenomenal platforming game, but to say it's better than ALL of nintendo's first party IP is definitely a bit of a stretch
Every single thing in astrobot is copied from a mario game even the intro sequence is just mario odyssey which is a much better game in every single way LMAO play mario odyssey right now
@@repingers9777Mario Odyssey was whack. Galaxy 1 is the best platformer in my personal opinion. Rayman 2 was better than Banjo Kazooie on Nintendo 64. Nintendo is not the end all, be all of platforming games.
That’s a stretch. It’s not beating peak Mario, Zelda, Metroid? Etc.
Just picked it up yesterday. It’s such a pleasant game. Everything in it feels so alive.
Peter: Sees dynamite: "Can I have MORE?"
Next, try Astrobot rescue mission. You will see where this is coming from, plus the VR really is excellent.
Great video, enjoyed watching
15:30 - I laughed very hard about this Koala joke, I even understood it because I just read an article about it.
I love how on the box snake hides in they put "Solid State" instead of "Solid Snake"
This game is just so charming! Definitely had me smiling a lot!
The three special bots you collect in Creamy Canyon are references to the Metal Gear series. The first one in the tree is Solid Snake, the second one captured by UFO is Psycho Mantis, the boss that makes you plug in your controller in port 2, and the third in the special room is Gray Fox.
The first two special bots in the starter level are Ratchet and Clank references. The one tied to the tree is Ratchet, and the one in the aquarium is Ratchet's female counterpart Rivet.
Well, he looks like a Nintendo fanboy, Im sure he smells like one too 😂
HHahahah
Subbed. I'm a simple man. Fun banter and Arlo gets a name drop.
Thanks for the sub!
Fun fact: nebulax (the green alien) is green because of Xbox (I think)
At 7:34 that is Rivet from Ratchet and Clank:Rift Apart. Dont give up hope on Sly Cooper tho👀
As a giant nintendo fan, when the ps5 came out i already loved astros playroom, this is a dream come true
It doesn't matter what you a fan of because all that matters is if you have fun with a game
“Look how its teeth gets.. more british everytime lol” funnny as ff
It’s great to see that there’s Nintendo fans discovering and liking the game 😊❤
Thank you Team Asobi for an amazing game. I absolutely love it.
Astro Bot is some of the most fun I’ve had with PlayStation in a while. It deserves all the praise it is getting. A fantastic game
Agreed. I (Ted) like playstation games, but so many of them are made for adults to enjoy, I can't share a lot of those experiences with my kids until they're at least 12, and some I don't ever want to experience with them because of awkward adult scenes. They can play that when they're older on their own. But this game is so good, I hope Sony makes more stuff that can be fun and appropriate for all ages. I don't think it's too big of an ask.
Lifelong Nintendo fan here.
Astro Bot is just good game design. Nintendo has their work cut out for them.
I love astrobot in VR in its original form I like astrobot playroom that comes with the PS5 but astrobot rescue mission is the best vr platform ever so Sony needs a VR Mode for this game and fast
He at the beging saying "yup" confirming he's a fanboy makes me think, he either doesn't know what exactly fanboy means or he's just shameless. Because being a Fanboy (= doesn't matter what it does, you still like/follow them blindly, something that is a curse) is different than something's Fan.
Also sony had a mario, they've had multiple but they always abandon them as soon as they have one mid game, sackboy was their previous mascot but he got abandoned after fans said LBP 3 didn't do enough innovation
Yeah Sony needs to take a page from Nintendo and not listen to their fans too much hahahahahaha!!!
@@The8asement I never said that, you sound a bit nuts
Honestly since I bought this game I don’t play any other games 😂❤
11:08 … they had snow like that in Mario odyssey. The way they did it here and in Mario odyssey is not super computationally expensive the type that deforms depending on the actual feet or the character is this one is just a radius around player snow height = 0
interesting!
This could become my favorite game of all time (if I played it), but I would just become a fan of Team Asobi. If Sony starts making games more like Astro Bot, then we'll talk.
Sony has had mascots, as displayed by Crash Bandicoot. Astro Bot could be a good mascot, but I don't see them doing it, as easy as it could be. And I don't think it's enough to compare to Mario if Astro Bot is stuck to platformers, but at least Astrobot makes for a good brand image AND method of showing off console capabilities. Astro Bot could be very flexible ngl.
Microsoft has Master Chief, who I think DOES hold a candle to Mario, except Halo is too different from Super Mario to really try comparing them closely.
Overall, Astro Bot is a character I would love to see more of, and if Sony ever released a handheld form of device with Astrobot now as their untainted brand image, I'm not gonna lie, I might be there before I'm with Nintendo. That is a very specific scenario that I have no reason to believe will happen, but the hopium kinda exists. Not really.
6:21 bro was Thinking about xbox control 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I got 3 minutes and 43 seconds in doing this but it was too much and I wanted to enjoy the video so here’s you go:
1:23 Compliment on game’s polish
1:29 Compliment on the PS5 ship being funny (maybe followed by a chuckle?)
2:00 Small chuckle
2:14 Compliment on use of controller
2:18 Gasp of joy about the controller again
2:36 Gleeful sound, followed by a giggle of happiness
3:01 Giggles after punching a fox
3:15 Compliment on game’s design
“Felt really good”
“I punched him… He’s happy!”
3:39 More giggles
I kept saying “this is just as fun as Super Mario Brothers”
I love it so much
0:09 that "yup" is personal, almost like "Sup you Sony pony, whachu got."
12:59
I think that the option to snap the camera to the back with a button press is in the Accessibility menu.
I think the game is perfect for us Sony fanboys just because of the nostalgia. Also the special levels based off of Sony exclusive like the GoW level and the Uncharted level those are just amazing and i loved every second of them. I just started the fourth world and cannot wait to see what it's going to be.
10:55 Skyward Sword has a boss fight that involves height map manipulation for sand
I hope there will be more games like this. I realy like playing games like this
*This Game is awesome!*
Ohhh this is a great idea!!!💡
The game is fun, an Illumination level of fun. Not at a Pixar or DreamWorks level because something is missing, but still fun.
Me and my ten year old daughter played a couple of jump n runs over the last couple of years, mostly Mario games and none of those was as much fun as Astro bot. Highly recommend playing this!
local co-op play in Mario 3D World is so good with kids :) *meeeeow
7:32 No it’s 100% not. its Rivet from Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart.
