Astro Bot - Review - Do Yourself A Favour, PLAY IT!
Just over a month ago, I made a video about how much I loved Astro’s Playroom and why I thought that Astro Bot was lined up to be PlayStation’s next family friendly platformer mascot. Now that I’ve played and completed Team ASOBI’s latest entry for the character, I can confirm my original sentiments that this game proves they know how to make a platformer that oozes personality and shows just how good they at crafting experiences with fun in mind.

Xbox - The Road to Recovery

The dust has begun to settle since the knockout show that Xbox managed to produce as part of Summer Games Fest and I wanted to spend some time to reflect on what that means for me as a player.

Is Trophy and Achievement Support Important?

Upon seeing the discussion online for Shadow of the Erdtree it became apparent to me that there is no trophy or achievement support for this DLC on any platform. For now, that has swayed me enough NOT to play the DLC given that I was undecided anyway just based on time commitments for other games I’d like to play, I now feel part of the experience in how I like to ‘finish’ games is one more rea...

    Another great video man I have been back and forth between Xbox and PlayStation over the years, and one thing I've come to realise is that the box you play on doesn't matter all that much, you go where you enjoy the experience. That's kind of what Xbox and Microsoft have finally realised too, with their whole branding of Xbox now being about the experience, rather than the console. Heck we know of people playing games through their Samsung TVs with Game Pass now I think Xbox have conceded the traditional 'console war' because they know there's no coming back from the Xbox One. What they can hope for now is that people chuck them £15 a month every once in a while to enjoy an experience, and when you total up that potential income vs the profit & loss of trying to force people into the physical ecosystem, it's clearly the best business strategy for them now

EA kills everything. being in an interconnected ship was super fun but good lord the map was horrible. tho idk how they couldve improved it. yeah RE when you had to fight the blind dude was peak RE. Only criticism...people have reviewed the hell outta this game. we dont really need a summary or any rundown at all. I'd rather hear what you thought about the gameplay or what youd have improved.

      @@finallyanime Yeah I think Dead Space 2 (Remake Series) for the moment isn’t going to be any time soon and I hope that it does get a chance because I think the gameplay and world building is top tier stuff. Agree with the map being dreadful though haha I take the criticism on board and to be honest it’s one I had of myself when I was putting this video together. I actually re-wrote the whole script for this because I realised I kinda JUST explained the game and not too many of my thoughts on it so I tried to adjust what I had into something more inclusive of my actual opinion. I did choose the first few games I did videos on to somewhat clear out my own back log and get a grip on editing and writing a bit more so I do treat them as a first attempt at all of this. As for my thoughts on the story, I guess it’s mostly the overall delivery that didn’t really have me hooked as I mentioned. I’d worked out the Marker plot twist quite a while before it was actually revealed (not entirely but enough) for it to just carry a lot less weight when it happened. I didn’t hate it at all but I just didn’t find it as gripping as I’d liked. Thanks for the comment and appreciate the time!

    I think the sense of accomplishment that comes with getting achievements/trophies has got to a point where it is half the fun, it can change how you approach games and push you into different directions and side quests that you wouldn’t have done otherwise. I think that not putting achievements in a DLC or something similar is a bit of a waste as it’s pretty much an open goal in terms of adding a whole other kind of player base and getting people to interact with the game in a way that you’d like them to, plus people just like to have a little record of what they’ve done in front of them to make it feel more satisfying.

    Super Mario is and will always be an incredible platformer. It was the first of its kind, but that is not why the series of games holds the crown for best platformer. The controls are responsive and rock solid. In a genre of gaming that is based around “platforming” and traversing… saying the controls are important is an understatement. The LittleBigPlanet game series was very creative and fun but the controls were clunky and floaty, making it slightly a chore. Astro bot on the other hand is very responsive and smooth, very close if not the same to Super Mario. And it also shares the same craftmanship as Super Mario which is a very Japanese game studio skill. Astro bot looks incredible and will probably become a well deserved series. PS: Sackboy: A big adventure is a solid platformer. The controls are more defined than its LBP origins. If you haven’t given it a go, it’s great.

    PlayStation has a habit of creating mascots or using Third-Party characters that define that specific generation. For PS1 it was Crash, Spyro, Snake, Lara Croft, Sir Daniel Fortesque, PaRappa, Spike, Dart & Sweet Tooth. For PS2 it was Ratchet & Clank, Jak & Daxter, Sly Cooper, Wander, Ico & Dante For PS3 it was Nathan Drake, Cole McGrath, Joel & Ellie & Sackboy For PS4 it was Kratos, Aloy, Jin Sakai, The Hunter, Knack & Kat And yes I know Kratos originated in the PS2 days but the PS4 is where Kratos was at the peak of his popularity.

    I dont subscribe to this notion that "the newest entry in a series is the best one for newcomers." In fact, I think I despise it. In nearly every scenario, the most recent game in a series is the furthest from the series' original vision and/or design. If a prominent series is getting a new installment, and fans are excited, it is evidence of the work put in by the previous installments. It is basic logic to start with the first game in a numbered series, or (on a case-by-case basis) at least the first game in a series to share an identical gameplay loop, before jumping into the newest product. Metal Gear Solid is one of the most famous video game franchises of all time, and to this day people are still being introduced to the series and falling in love with it. If they have to be coaxed into a series by the new, shiny, and ruthlessly uninspired product, without any agency to seek the rest of it out for themself first, then perhaps they aren't mature enough to engage with that piece of media yet. This certainly does not solely apply to Metal Gear, as nor do the rest of my points. Are gamers so close-minded now that they can't go back and play a game that's older than them? It used to be that when a new game of a multi-work series released, people would go back to play the older games in order either immediately after, or before in order to prepare. Nowadays, people will play the newest game, and then passively wait for the next one. This is how franchises become diluted with simpletons and casuals who don't understand a series' roots and treat games, as well as all media, as simple escapism or fads. The only Witcher game they've played is Witcher III, the only Monster Hunter game they've played is World, the only Souls game they've played is Elden Ring. tl;dr Watch the other Mad Max films before seeing Furiosa in cinemas; Delta is a Metal Gear game for people who only use their $1000 PC to play Fortnite and Call of Duty. I didn't realise how intense I was about this subject until I started writing. This comment is way longer than I anticipated. I realise I might have come across as a colossal prick, but I really don't think my views are elitist, or even that unpopular. I sound so angry. I'm really not. Just so disappointed. Not at you, the uploader, obviously. But, this landscape. Good work on the video. Second Edit: This consumerist culture has brainwashed people into thinking that franchises need to be always active - always "producing." I would rather see my favourite franchises bite the dust on their own terms than become puppeteered by executives and director's boards. *Especially if they work for Konami.* There is such a staggering amount of media in the world that we will never experience or appreciate at this rate. If we keep going for what's familiar, then it will lose its taste. Don't beat a dead horse, ride a new one.

    • @Liquidizer_96
      @Liquidizer_96 3 месяца назад

      That’s a hell a comment! I take all of your points though and I think you have a good argument for what you’re trying to say. I don’t really disagree with you in all honesty and in a perfect world I would hope that everyone who did want to play this series would start with the original entires (right back to the Metal Gear days). Saying that though, I’ve had quite a few conversations recently with people about the franchise, especially to those I know personally that have also watched this video. It seems from their perspective that they’ve ’missed the boat’ somewhat on the original games and are happy to give this remake a chance based on the merits they’re aware of from the franchise as a whole. You’re likely accurate in that consumerist society we will live is to blame for that kind of thought process where the way we consume media is concerned. I suppose this video is just me trying more to embrace that’s the world we live in and to strike up a conversation more about Metal Gear as a whole. I know too many people that call themselves gamers and have never fully played a Metal Gear game so I hope that maybe a reinvention of the gameplay aspects could be more palatable to them as I think genuinely think the narrative and experience of Metal Gear is one of the best there is. I feel your sentiment though, thanks for watching and dropping your opinion here in any case!

      That’s a fair opinion, though I would say if you’re comparing to other series’… The RE4 Remake has been the fastest selling game in the series at 7 million copies sold as of March 2024 so the hunger for remakes is obvious amongst the communities I’d say. If something made money, the general idea is to capitalise on that trend. Keeping Metal Gear relevant is the more important part of this for me. You’ll get a whole new generation of players that never played (nor will) the originals like us and that’s the part I’m most celebrating out of this.
