Astro Bot (PSVR) Review Thread
- Thread starter LifeLine
- Start date
Please do not treat your fellow users like this.
Not the developers technically. It's from Japan Studio but a new team within it called ASOBI! Team.
Nothing different. We still have games with 95 or even higher MC.
Yes! I'm so glad it reviewed well. I loved Robot Rescue, but I want VR to succeed, and nothing boasts legitimacy than a really good application of a medium.
Cannot wait to play this!

Not surprised by the great reviews, the demo was awesome, so a full game would only be even more awesome. I very much look forward to my physical copy arriving any day now. :)
Go back and read Jeremy Horwitz' tweets, please. The comparison to Super Mario 64 was not about quality of the game. At least 2 reviews today (Metro and IGN Japan) make the same comparison.
Wow; it's 89 on Metacritic now! Would be awesome if it cracks 90. I hope the development team are getting a big fat bonus and free reign on whatever they want to do next.
It's developed by Sony's Japan Studio. This won't be anywhere but Playstation.

SM64 had an incredible impact on the industry. Astro Bot is going to be another niche game with 50K sales.
Not to dogpile, but this post alone would probably make Lindsay Wagner's in-game character age to that of her real-world counterpart.
Shame they felt the need to use the qualifier of it being the greatest "PSVR" game and not just "VR".
What Astro bot do to you. Dude just wanna score well and hop some vines
Stand out demo on the PSVR demo disk so glad they were able to flesh out the game. I will definitely pick this up once I am back home later this month.

If this had a Nintendo logo slapped on the cover it probably would have gotten high-90s
There's plenty of games( IMO) that justify a headset. Wait till Black Friday to see what deals are out there.
I knew this was going to be huge, but from the demo I played in playroomVR to the demo I tried at Insomnia63 its like night and day. So much evolved.
I'll need to pick this up sooner than later, what with RDR2 coming up later this month. Also excited to have another VR game the whole family can play. Wipeout was the last one I bought, and it was just too much for the rest of the household. If we can get Beat Saber and Golem (finger-crossed it's good) before the end of the year, I'll consider it a solid year for PSVR.
What games you looking forward to so we can go over and trash those threads...there's nothing I enjoy more than spending my time talking about stuff I have no interest in...
Your obsession with one person's comment is pretty fucking weird.
I was very interested in this after reading a lot of great things....but....The trailer actually looks horrendous, in the minute and a half the music already got to my nerves. Looks like that free VR game that had many minigames with robots...is this from this series?
I will wait for a discount.
I hugely applaud Sony for its support for VR though, PS4 is my VR machine these days and I appreciate their work, despite PSVR not being a huge success.

If you didn't tie your identity to products like Mario 64 you'd actually understand what the journalists were saying when comparing Astro Bot to the game. They weren't talking about sales or metacritic or even overall impact on the industry.
Totally agree, they look great in that footage!
I really do love this trailer music track too.
But, but, but...
Thumper
Rez infinite
Tetris Effect
Deracine
Superhot
RE7
Wipeout
Beat sabre
Not interested in any of those?
Damn, I kinda regret selling my headset after farpoint. I have to resist getting another tomorrow.
I don't know why he insists on starting the same discussion as in the dedicated Mario thread here. Doesn't even make sense to use a metacritic score + sale number comparison in that discussion anyway.
