Seems like it probably has the most support here! Rebirth is still my personal GOTY, but I wouldn't be upset with anyone giving it to Astro Bot.

The menu music is stuck in my head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure it does anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the game too. Some of the most fun I’ve had gaming this year. But those triangle bonus levels can go die in the hottest fires of hell.

SaysWho? Posted September 16 Author Share Posted September 16 @matpiscatella.bsky.social on Bluesky BSKY.APP Don't usually talk weeklies but wanted to add some context to the UK reporting from last week. Across both physical & digital, Astro Bot ranked 2nd in unit sales in the US for w/e Sept 7th (behind only NBA 2K25), and the Astro Bot DualSense was the week's best-selling accessory. Solid week 1.

TwinIon Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 This game is almost overwhelmingly delightful. It's replete with small touches that can't help but make you smile. Every level has so many little interactions that exist only for the vibe and it's so wonderful. I'm only through the first galaxy so far, so I'm not quite ready to declare it my GOTY, but it'll be high up on my personal list for sure. It's certainly harder to find fault with than FF7 Rebirth or Outlaws or any other big games. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly harder to find fault with than FF7 Rebirth or Outlaws or any other big games. It's going to be hard to top Rebirth for me, even though if you asked me to find improvements with one of the games, it'd be easier to talk about Rebirth since there's so much in it. But that's also something which can be said for anything big game. I can point to improvements and bugs of Baldur's Gate 3, but it's also hard to ding it strongly considering how much is in it. So I dunno; everyone will judge differently. Astro Bot definitely has enough levels and gameplay to justify $59.99, and it's an extraordinarily polished game with a lot of little bits that improve the experience, and it's an easy game to pick up and replay just because you feel like playing it. Caveat: I don't think I've played any new games besides the Apollo Justice trilogy remaster, Rebirth, and Astro Bot (though Stellar Blade will be played sometime this year), so my opinion for GOTY is kind of worthless considering how little I've played that actually released this year.

Best Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 This is more enjoyable than Rebirth. In fact I tried to get back into Rebirth today and I was completely turned off by it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the soulslikes I've been playing lately I can't do all those freeze frame high fives and forced laughs.
