Astro Bot | OT |

[Armadillo]

Finished this today, was fun. Now to wait for the time attack dlc.

Only slight disappointment was no ball rolling levels similar to Astro's Playroom, the ones where you rolled a ball using the touchpad. Levels where you rode the Armadillo were similar, but I really liked the touchpad ones in Playroom so was hoping for some here.

Finished today and got the platinum, a few levels were very annoying, such as some of the void levels and the space level from the crash site statue.
I give it an 8.5/10

Just about to finish the last galaxy, shame it has to end!

Just finished the game, and managed to get the platinum trophy. Didn't find the end game secret level too bad ; there were definitely harder challenge levels prior to that, imo.

edit: according to the Playstation email I finished the game in 4 hrs ... quicker than 100% of the global playerbase. Yup, I'm just that good (coulda sworn I took 20 hrs ... )

Yes, the square, triangle, circle and x challenges. I've managed to do them .... eventually. But they aren't fun, and are quite jarring when compared to the rest of the game.

I have these left to do but tbh I’m not sure I will bother far too old to be doing things over and over.

Yeah I noticed my email said something like 8hrs, yet it took me about 16hrs over a week. I found that last level Grand Master challenge 5 on the crash site tricky, it wasn't hard in way of what to do, it was just so long I kept making silly mistakes.

Completed and loved it, such a fun game to kick back and enjoy, finding the void challenges a little frustrating!

This is getting such rave reviews but I'm sceptical at 16 hours quoted above Vs the cost is it worth it?

A couple of quid per hour isn't too shabby and if you buy the disc version you can always just sell it on and lose around tenner on what you paid.

It’s well worth it. Honestly. It’s not too long, but doesn’t feel too short. Certainly beats padded out open world with nothing between point A and B

Caved and bought it, feedback incoming in a few days

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Quality over Quantity…..

After about 2 hours in I regret nothing, amazing fun game!

is there a way to play without owning a ps5? Like ps cloud service

Don't think so ...

Well it's been the weekend and I've just got the Plat for it. Absolutely fantastic bit of fun (Final level aside I never want to see that again)

Astro Bot finds it "difficult to comment on" why Square Enix characters were notably absent

Team Asobi says that while "almost 100%" of its most-wishlisted iconic Sony characters made it into Astro Bot, it finds…

Odd some of the more notable characters associated with Playstation weren't in the game. There were rumours about supposed DLC but it looks like it was just business reasons.

This game really is fantastic. Sometimes I see a game get loads of rave reviews and when I play I feel they aren't justified. That's not the case here; the rave reviews really are justified!

Oh man, I'm at 296 bots collected but the final 3 X challenges and Djinnys revenge are battering me.
