Astro Bot, from a tech demo, to one of the most heart wrenching nostalgia trips I've ever had. And I'm saying this as someone who only had a ps4 lmao The ps5 playroom just made me feel a childhood that I didn't really have with the Playstation consoles.
Imagine if Sony and Team Asobi wrote a backstory for Astro that played into his tech demo root. As in, something like Astro once being a standard-issue Bot before finding something that upgraded him into the hero we know today, and the vast majority of Bot-kind not being interested in the past before Astro found some artifacts.
I agree with you. Astro is a fantastic character who makes me appropriate all of my PlayStation consoles and accessories even more. I can’t wait to journey through Astro’s new adventure on Friday!
@@Oli_Heath oh true, but at least this game promises more purchases since you don’t need a whole headset to play it (at least from what PlayStation shared so far)
This was such a fun video. It's games like these, that truly let you appreciate Sony, what they've done for the gaming world and the plethora of fun we've had with it over the decades of gaming. Astro's Playroom was such a breath of fresh air and still one of my most favourite platformers. I do admit, the homage to the older generations and Astro's overly cute nature was a huge part of that. But the snappy controls, the absolute masterclass work with the DS5's features and the adorable soundtrack just makes for an all-in-one package. Albeit, a short package. I hope it's games like Astro, that made us all love Sony for all the games they've made in the past, help point Sony back in the right direction to once again, make games for the players. With that said, I am beyond hyped for Astrobot 2024! One more day guys!
I'm glad you enjoyed it 😀 and it's been so great to see everyone sharing in the joy and excitement for the character. Let's hope the new release meets everyones expectations 🙂
I was never a PlayStation guy until I picked up a PS4 purely for Spider-Man back in 2018, got a PS5 this year with Spider-Man 2. Even though I grew up with Nintendo and Xbox I still feel the nostalgia of this game and it might sound over the top but it’s genuinely a top 20 game of all time for me, it’s just a beautiful experience. I wish Nintendo would make something like this using Mario. They have enough of their own consoles, peripherals and iconic characters to reference of their own. Cannot wait for Astro Bot this week!
@@Mercs_Beamers I didn't realise until my second playthrough that the GPU and the RAM etc. were signing the songs in the sky for each area in Astro's Playroom. So fun and clever.
@@franknsteainyeah I noticed it when I was playing Astro Bot (the new game) and after getting both Memory and SSD back I heard both of them singing to the crash site music singing “Memory” and “SSD” respectively
Astro Playroom is an amazing game and I am still shocked it was given away for free with the PS5. Playing that game made me tear sometimes, it's a memory lane really. Buying the physical version day 1!
As someone who 100% Astro Bot's Rescue Misson and getting the Platinum Trophy, i fell in love with Astro and the cuteness of the series, so to see him now being such a big name on PlayStation is brilliant, great video man ❤
Astro Bot does everything a proper game mascot is designed to do. Fun and engaging personality, easy to pick up mechanics, and bountiful map collectables. Sony has invested in making pretty much zero of these kinds of games and now that it's a tech demo achieving it speaks to how anemic they've made their catalogue.
You have my respect for making this video.. entertaining keep doing it you really cared about the content you presented here today.. nice one i can sense the passion lol (anyways in all honesty astro bot pretty much filled the void little big planet left behind in my opinion which hey that's awesome)
I loved Astro since the 1st time I booted up Astro’s playroom & can't wait to see how Astro Bot plays, but what speaks the most to me is the care & love for Playstation & its franchises, like my favourite beging God of War, to see Kratos Bot made me happy beyond belief & in the future for your channel I think it'd be really kool if you could do a deep dive on Kratos & the whole God of War series because it truly is a fascinating tale
@@INKY_627 GOW is one of my most beloved franchises, from hiring the original at my local video store in my youth, getting the special edition version with the DVD for my birthday one year and to Ragnarok, it holds a special place for me. I'll be visiting the franchise one day, watch this space 😄
My son has interacted with Astro bot on ps4 since he was 5 years old with the camera and now with me having a ps5 he played the astros playroom free game with the ps5 and he loved it as of this moment he’s enjoying astro bot and loving every moment of it .
I just wish they’d re-release Astro Bot Rescue Mission for PSVR2. I had the pleasure of trying it at the Manchester Science Museum a few weeks ago, and I was blown away! I’d never tried VR until then, and that hour convinced me I needed to open my mind to it again!
Another commentor made that same point earlier too, with multiple people echoing the same opinion there would definitely be a market for it. I'm glad you enjoyed your time with VR, it has so much potential to be seen 😃
Yeah it will be great. Personally i can still play the game since i have my PSVR1 and PS4 and an adapter for PSVR1 to PS5 so i don't need it but it will be great for users that only have PSVR2 and it will keep the game more alive as well.
I had played Astros playroom first and absolutely loved the game about two months ago. I finally got the original PlayStation VR playing Astro Bot rescue mission and it is amazing game already pre-ordered and downloaded Astrobot just waiting for it to unlock now.

Astros playroom is great. Playing through that little free experience brought me more joy than almost every other game over the last decade or so. At the risk of sounding cliché, it actually made me feel like a kid again, just having fun and the biggest grin on my face.

It's funny, the ps5 came out in 2020 and i only just played astro's playroom about a month ago. And it was pretty fun and because of that I got astro bot and it was a great experience
@@noamskplaying Me too honestly, although the first gen VR's are cheap these days I couldn't fit the cost into my budget for the video. Although I wanted too I had to make the more practical call this time around, but I feel I hit a nice middle ground. I hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
@@noamskplaying All comments I see as feedback, no hate taken 😄 and I appreciate yours. I'll get better and as I grow I hope to be able to expand my capacity, and comments and feedback like yours go a long way to helping me improve. Thanks again, and all the best 🙂
That's a good point, I feel they tried to hit a balance with them to show thw tech off more, but I'm sure they'll have worked on that, as well as boss variety in the most recent release 😀
Wish they’d port rescue mission to PSVR2. It’s still one of the best VR games I’ve played and looks great, just upscaling, adding haptic support and increasing lighting and texture resolutions would be enough. There are of course technical challenges and it would probably need to use the vr sense controllers instead of dualsense due to the dualsense not having in built 3d tracking that the DualShock 4 had with its light. Beyond that and the challenge of changing things for inside out tracking instead of camera, I think it would be fairly quick for team Asobi to port it over in a good level of quality, it doesn’t need to be a big new release they could just allow people to download and buy a ps5 version like some other psvr1 to 2 portrd games
@@Coool151 With more players voting with their wallets and showing devs what we truly want to see, perhaps this is the time for change and to revitalise beloved franchises 😄
@@TheEnvixity. 4D gaming would be a whole new world, maybe one day 👀 I mean they do have haptic VR suites these days, so it will be interesting what the future both near and far have to offer
@@franknsteainsadly not going to happen and wouldn't be nearly as good as a PS5 version considering Astro has the strongest haptic feedback from the controller.
I just learned that most of the best music tracks in Astro Bot originally came from Astro Bot: Rescue Mission. I never bought a PS VR headset because Sony wouldn't allow Valve to port Half-Life: Alyx to the consoles. There's no point of buying a VR headset if you can't play the best VR game ever made
@@Sorigir one day in the future for sure, I'm more aligned with Retrospectives than Reviews so once it's content updates are done that's when ill be ready to tell its story :)
IMO Astro Bot Rescue Mission VR is to VR platformers, what Super Mario 64 was to 3D platformers. It has tight gameplay, beautiful visuals, a memorable soundtrack, clever and immersive use of the VR headset and the PS4 controller... I could go on. My only complaint is that I wish it were longer. Hopefully the new game is successful enough to warrant a re-release of Rescue Mission on PS5VR and PC headsets.
Astro Bot is the PS5's LittleBigPlanet. It's a flagship exclusive that is necessary to the Playstation brand as a whole, especially with all the huge mistakes Sony keeps making and continues to make, all while leaving games people actually want to just be sat on and done nothing with. This franchise is the diamond in the wroth for the PS5, and Sony needs to realize it or else they'll end up nowhere much like Microsoft's Xbox at this rate.
@@Cyberbrickmaster1986 With recent events I think now more than ever players will be heard, not just from their commwnts and feedback but now that they are voting with their wallets. Let's see where things go from here 🙂
Quality in build is one thing, character charm is another, but as has been seen in the past week players want fun and enjoyable titles ans Astro hit the mark 😁
@@markatebleplushie Thank you very much for the feedback 😄 it's something I'll be working to addresss in the future, comments like this help a lot with my improvement, so its appreciated!
It’s the tec being utalized in its best way. Put this on switch or even Xbox/pc and you lose so much without the PS5 controller at the very least to carry its best features. Switch couldn’t do shit even with 3D rumble and motion controls, other systems look better with that interactivity with small objects being important but lackluster compared to using the original controller. This is what exclusive games should be, using every aspect of a systems capabilities to run, look and feel as great as it can be. That all said, no PSVR2 support? That’s retarded.
Personally i will buy it because always waiting this games on the cheap is what kills this games. To anyone wondering why there isn't another Sly Cooper made or another Jack and Daxter etc. Well because gamers didn't throw their money at them while they did with Spider man or God of War etc. The worst is when people spend much more on some silly microtransaction skins in a game and then complain that a whole game with Astro isn't worth paying.

@@Gothems_Worst-_-7711The AR stands for augmented reality, so they are "Augmented Reality Bots"
@@jodyposey9558 that doesn't fit
@@Gothems_Worst-_-7711 Yes, I know, I'm just letting you know what AR stands for, that's all.
@jodyposey9558 ik, I was just respond saying that I don't think it fits and that playbots is a better name than AR bots
Great video!
@@rikimarizard thank you 😄
@@franknsteain you’re welcome. I should have elaborated and said your narration and script writing is really good. I like how you tell the story of the team and clearly spent a lot of time on research. Look forward to more

I am astro bot
Astro bot is PlayStation savior
@@jacobfisherLego It's great to see so many people getting behind the title and being excited for the release!
It's funny, the ps5 came out in 2020 and i only just played astro's playroom about a month ago. And it was pretty fun and because of that I got astro bot and it was a great experience
@@pizzaninja0 I'm glad you enjoyed them 😄
i wish you played all of the games you mentioned
@@noamskplaying Me too honestly, although the first gen VR's are cheap these days I couldn't fit the cost into my budget for the video. Although I wanted too I had to make the more practical call this time around, but I feel I hit a nice middle ground. I hope you enjoyed the video 🙂
almost all of the video was astros playroom which was kinda annoying
@@noamskplaying Worked with what I had, and loved every moment of it 😄
im not trying to hate i just think you could have made a video about astros playroom and not all of the history

The new game is even better
@@notgamingwithfaz the review scores are great to see!
My only negative about astro playroom was I wish the bosses were a tad bit more difficult
That's a good point, I feel they tried to hit a balance with them to show thw tech off more, but I'm sure they'll have worked on that, as well as boss variety in the most recent release 😀
Wish they’d port rescue mission to PSVR2. It’s still one of the best VR games I’ve played and looks great, just upscaling, adding haptic support and increasing lighting and texture resolutions would be enough.
There are of course technical challenges and it would probably need to use the vr sense controllers instead of dualsense due to the dualsense not having in built 3d tracking that the DualShock 4 had with its light. Beyond that and the challenge of changing things for inside out tracking instead of camera, I think it would be fairly quick for team Asobi to port it over in a good level of quality, it doesn’t need to be a big new release they could just allow people to download and buy a ps5 version like some other psvr1 to 2 portrd games
Really good point! With the success of Astro Bot too it could sweeten the deal for those on the fence about purchasing a PSVR2
I love Astro

Imagine if the PS5Pro has heat and cooling in the controller, reacting to heat in game.
@@TheEnvixity. 4D gaming would be a whole new world, maybe one day 👀 I mean they do have haptic VR suites these days, so it will be interesting what the future both near and far have to offer
If I were rich I would buy a PS5 just to play Astro's Playroom ngl
@@NinjaElectroRUclipsr I'd love to see a PS4 version of Astro Bot some day, just so Sonh can share the love 🙂
@@franknsteainsadly not going to happen and wouldn't be nearly as good as a PS5 version considering Astro has the strongest haptic feedback from the controller.
@@nytrobros.4810 true, I'd love more players to get a chance to experience it but I suppose the PS5 content will become more accessible over time :)
I just learned that most of the best music tracks in Astro Bot originally came from Astro Bot: Rescue Mission. I never bought a PS VR headset because Sony wouldn't allow Valve to port Half-Life: Alyx to the consoles. There's no point of buying a VR headset if you can't play the best VR game ever made
@@RotcodFox no point having the hardware without software that interest you 😄 half life alyx looks great too, I'd love to try it out some day.
Are you going to talk about Astro bot?
@@Sorigir one day in the future for sure, I'm more aligned with Retrospectives than Reviews so once it's content updates are done that's when ill be ready to tell its story :)
IMO Astro Bot Rescue Mission VR is to VR platformers, what Super Mario 64 was to 3D platformers. It has tight gameplay, beautiful visuals, a memorable soundtrack, clever and immersive use of the VR headset and the PS4 controller... I could go on. My only complaint is that I wish it were longer. Hopefully the new game is successful enough to warrant a re-release of Rescue Mission on PS5VR and PC headsets.
The Astro Bot reviews are looking great! Let's hope this shows Sony what the players want and gives rise to more quality platformers 😀
Bro you sound like you're reading a script from chat gpt
It has a story?
@@DummyDum-et1tm a history much longer than I expected
Astro Bot is the PS5's LittleBigPlanet. It's a flagship exclusive that is necessary to the Playstation brand as a whole, especially with all the huge mistakes Sony keeps making and continues to make, all while leaving games people actually want to just be sat on and done nothing with. This franchise is the diamond in the wroth for the PS5, and Sony needs to realize it or else they'll end up nowhere much like Microsoft's Xbox at this rate.
@@Cyberbrickmaster1986 With recent events I think now more than ever players will be heard, not just from their commwnts and feedback but now that they are voting with their wallets. Let's see where things go from here 🙂
I adviced everybody that Astro Bot game was going to be goated. I was right.
Quality in build is one thing, character charm is another, but as has been seen in the past week players want fun and enjoyable titles ans Astro hit the mark 😁
@@franknsteain yeah, it reminds me of the good ol' days of PS2 Licensed Games, that were made for a very specific reason: Have fun!
Nice vid! I am not trying to insult you but you are repeating some words a bit too much. Other then that nice vid and keep up the good work buddy.
@@markatebleplushie Thank you very much for the feedback 😄 it's something I'll be working to addresss in the future, comments like this help a lot with my improvement, so its appreciated!
It’s the tec being utalized in its best way. Put this on switch or even Xbox/pc and you lose so much without the PS5 controller at the very least to carry its best features. Switch couldn’t do shit even with 3D rumble and motion controls, other systems look better with that interactivity with small objects being important but lackluster compared to using the original controller. This is what exclusive games should be, using every aspect of a systems capabilities to run, look and feel as great as it can be.
That all said, no PSVR2 support? That’s retarded.
Great point about the tech, much of the charm comes from what can be felt 🙂
I really want the new astro game coming out soon but 70 dollars is crazy
It'll sit around there for a while, but I could see a really good holiday deal on it near the end of the year, fingers crossed 🤞
Personally i will buy it because always waiting this games on the cheap is what kills this games. To anyone wondering why there isn't another Sly Cooper made or another Jack and Daxter etc. Well because gamers didn't throw their money at them while they did with Spider man or God of War etc.
The worst is when people spend much more on some silly microtransaction skins in a game and then complain that a whole game with Astro isn't worth paying.
bro no offence but listening to this video it feels like 70% of this script was written by AI
@@khalidal26 Thanks for the feedback, I'm trying to strike a balance between more elaborate word use and casual scripting, but I'll get better 😄
why does this video feel AI generated?
This video reads more like a Wikipedia page then a deep dive on the games. Share your opinions!
@@Fishy-Squad9 Noted, thanks for the feedback, I'm still working on my scripting and delivery, I'll get better 🙂
Lauded is pronounced lord-ed, not loud-ed. Its similar to how some people pronounce niche as n-itch instead of neesh. Good video otherwise.
Thank you for the feedback, I should have dialed in the pronunciation a bit better 🙂 I remember back when I recorded my Last of Us video that I had to practice "ophiocordycepts unilateralis fungus" over and over again 😅
