In a console generation full of overblown, over-budgeted “experiences,” what a refreshing return to a simpler time Astro Bot is: a shorter-form, gameplay-driven love letter to PlayStation’s past, and a hopeful symbol that said return won’t be a short stay.

In accidental tradition, the days I had to record the VA for the video I got kinda sick, so sorry if it gets kinda gross near the end.
Also, can I just say I was not expecting how tough it’d be to capture footage via VR. You’d think it’d be simple like “oh well my face is the cameraman,” but the way VR transposes to 2D video, everything is always just a little lower in frame than you think.
Anyway hope you like the video 🙂
Incredible video Scotty. Worth the wait for sure! Your presentation of Astro makes me wanna drop everything and go play. Your editing is great, the perfect foil to the hilarious commentary. Overall incredible video. I hope it gets the recognition it deserves ❤
