Omg you are right I never even spotted that! Cheeky b@stards putting that in small overlay writing at bottom of screen rather at start of video!
Small claims court might be busy lol š
Ok definitely pleased I missed out now šš

Imagine if it was a screen. You'd get about 4 minutes out of the battery.

The special edition with animated eyes or just the regular one with static eyes?

Not long now! Cheapest I can find it is Ā£51 GC via EBay UK with coupon and Iām still hanging back for final reviews at that price. Might have bitten @ Ā£45 given how positive the previews have beenā¦ anyone else already bit?

Yeah no surprise at all the scores. "Lowest" I've seen so far is 9/10 from ign.

This is my real platform exclusive envy game... looks amazing, desperately want to play it, but it would literally be the only reason for me buying a PS5. I can only hope for a PC port some time down the line, as unlikely as that is. Have fun guys, looks like an all time great has arrived.

Looks fantastic from the EG review. Have a few games on the go at the moment, but when I clear some of those I will definitely be grabbing this.

Tied highest rated game of the year is pretty good. I wish they'd remaster Rescue Mission for VR2.
Looking forward to this tomorrow.

Tonight belongs to Space Marine 2 but come tomorrow it's Astro all the way.
Pay attention Sony, for fuck's sake!

But publisher success can only be found in Live Service games, right?
Really hope Astrobot does gangbusters sales wise. Can't wait to play it with the kids this weekend.

Interesting take from the Kotaku review.
"Astro Bot is a mighty game and so is its eponymous hero, but I donāt think either is likely to save the world or this industry."

Sounds like itās very good, but is just completely and utterly not my type of game.
Itās weird, Iāve been gaming since the dawn of time but just never understood the appeal of platformers. Not even Mario or Sonic. Everyone loves them apart from me.
Enjoying your jumping.

Why should this one specific platformer be responsible for saving the world and the industry?
It looks great and I'll definitely grab it when I've got through a bit of my backlog, but I'm not expecting the second coming of Christ...

Bugs Bunny defeated Hitler. When is Astrobot going to defeat Putin?!

Just a great fuzzy nostalgia feel to everything |

I'm looking at the DF review of this and on a technical level it's astounding and reminds me of all those tech demos of the ps2 and ps3 finally brought into real gameplay and makes believe even more that we really don't need a PS5 Pro when we're getting stuff like this at (reconstructed)4k 60. I see fun here and I see stuff that just looks absolutely remarkable. I would hope Sony looks at the reception to this and realise that games like this get attention not your endless non descript GaaS.

Avoided all the hype, only seen the trailers, but this is definitely a purchase now - really looking forward to it.
