If this gets nominated for Game of the Year at the Game Awards, bots are going to be hating on an entire genre. :ROFLMAO:
If it's bigger and better than the last game it sure should be a contender for the GOTY.

The last one to me, despite being short was more interesting than plenty of Mario games I see getting awards.

This legitimately looks more inventive and impressive than anything Nintendo's done for Mario in years.

no need to put two kings agaisnt each other tho, i see a lot of similarities between the astro games and odyssey, and its a good thing, since odyssey was a strong candidate to goty sometime ago

It's okay, not everybody needs to like good games and there are many people playing bad games like Fallout.

Taste is always subjective.
i have the suspicion that this subjective taste would be a lot different if mario wore a blue hat if you know what i mean lmao

What if I told you I thought both were very disappointing?
Odyssey was just ok. Galaxy and its sequel are miles and miles better IMO, I’d even put 3D world over it.

That being said, Astro VR is one of the best games I have ever played, and I think this will rival some of Nintendos best.

The amount of positive headlines and reactions this game is getting. I hope they realize they should lean more into this stuff. I'm curious just how many more legacy characters are in the game.

I admire Asobi for always paying homage to the legacy of PlayStation. Hopefully this game will inspire Sony to appreciate its own legacy more.

So much potential for cross promotional marketing leading up to this game. I hope they price it correct... $50 and you have a winner Sony... No need for price cuts for the rest of the gen.

They can definitely try to reach an audience, they have abandoned. I hope they push this in Japan too.
