Team Asobi creates unforgettable platform games and with Astro Bot on PlayStation 5, the developers have done it again with an outstanding effort that's up there with Nintendo at its best - with its own range of individual flourishes and features. The joy of video games is encapsulated in this beautiful game - as John explains in the DF tech review.​

Interesting how Square Enix rejected there characters being in Astro Bot. It would be crazy if Square Enix relationship ended they played a major role in PS & not being in a game the celebrate it + it’s such a universal game that doesn’t hurt or damage there characters/ip is interesting yet sad. No cloud in Astro boy & no KH.

Sony needs to acquire Square or they will completely loose them when the Switch 2 release. Nintendo receiving Square Enix mainline games day n date will hurt PS + further cement Nintendo dominance in Japan.

Buy Square Enix + buy the Dragon Quest ip

we need more, give Sly to Team Asobi
Asobi should focus on reviving Japanese mascot. Ape Escape, Legend of Dragoon, Parrapatherapper, Wild Arms, Gravity Rush needs to comeback after the success of Astro Bot (hopefully)

Sucker punch & Naughty Dog need a smaller 60 man team to bring back & make a new mainline Sly Cooper & Jak & Daxter + maybe even license those ip to 3rd party like Nintendo to make them annualized or partner w Toys for Bob
