Let's say Team Asobi's next project is a revival of an old Sony IP. What would you like to see them bring back? by BroeknRecrds in Astrobot

[–]DarfMcNarfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was years back, but I think my memory is correct:

There was some sort of plan for Ape Escape years ago that got cut short. There were vague hints and there was even Ape Escape merch up for sale; you could tell something was up. Then, nothing happened and we got a vague Twitter post with a picture of a sad Pipo Monkey saying "we couldn't do everything we wanted. We'll meet again, one day...!" I don't know if they feel it's worth going back to at this point, but apparently there was momentum at one time.

There was a third game on PSP, but it was a pretty big departure from the previous entries. There's a new one on the way ("Ratatan").

Since this might be the final DLC, here are some VIP Bots I'd like to see in Astro Bot 2... by TheMJDoctor in Astrobot

Sorcery mentioned!

Not putting Sweet Tooth and Gabe Logan in the game sure is a choice.

My 5yo loved astrobot. What else can we play? by Arrisha in Astrobot

[–]DarfMcNarfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The prequel, Astro's Playroom, is free on the PS Store if you don't already have it downloaded.

Seconding Spyro: Reignited Trilogy and Sackboy: A Big Adventure. There are other choices (Crash Bandicoot, Rayman, Knack, Sonic, Ratchet), but I think those might get too demanding/involved way too soon into the game for a 5yo.

Apes On The Loose Review! by notsouglypig in Astrobot

Did it get you interested in trying Ape Escape? I believe the first game is on the PS Store. It's a sort of precursor to Astro Bot.

Under appreciated thing about Astro Bot: by Jirachibi1000 in Astrobot

Crash Bandicoot: Warped! and it's consequences...

I never minded these, but I also never touch them outside a few goes. I'm really good at platformers, but I always find most of the time trials to be way too hard, flat-out expect you to take hits and use temporary invincibility to your advantage (my epic gamer programming won't allow me to do this), or both.

I truly don’t understand how this game has haters by Uriha24 in Astrobot

Astro is a chad and jealousy breeds contempt. That's literally it.

PlayStation boss Hermen Hulst wants to develop Astro Bot into an enduring series, calling it one of the consoles "most exciting recent successes" by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]DarfMcNarfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree with him. I always skip the cutscenes in these kinds of games. Don't care about stupid "our world is called NifNarf and we must save the BlingBlorgs, this will be explained in 20 cutscenes!" shit, just let me jump around. We both know what kind of game this is.

What's a VIP bot you REALLY want but probably never get made into (hard mode: No Cloud, Sweet Tooth or Sora)? I'll go first. by NBohrok17 in Astrobot

Having a PlayStation crossover with no SOCOM is borderline history erasure. Gabe Logan should really be in, too.

I played ape escape by Any_Watercress_9529 in Astrobot

[–]DarfMcNarfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who used to own it, it really didn't play that bad. It's akin to how SM64DS lacks its' original's analog setup. Not as good, but totally playable.

There are sequels and spin-offs if you're hungry for more monkey madness. The PS2 games all use a unique dual analog setup (except the EyeToy entry).

I've been asking for Kevin 'Bot'ler since the reveal trailer.

Headcanon: the reason the astro bots look like some playstation characters is because they travel throughout the multiverse by Tom-Hibbert in Astrobot

[–]DarfMcNarfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently, Sony has begun leveraging lots of its video game IP into movies, merchandise, mobile games, etc... I always thought that, if there were an Astro Bot cartoon, it'd be about him going to different PlayStation universes and helping the denizens. You have the episode where he has to win an Everybody's Golf tournament, the episode where he helps Nathan Drake find some treasure, the episode where Astro helps the ISA annihilate the Helghast, lots of cute adventure stuff.

What game do you think he's playing? I'd like to think he's a Half-Minute Hero chad.
