Splashing Sprint was my personal hell.

[@GoodKingMort]

I've just reached this level. I've not hated something so much for a long time.

[@spongebelt]

Same. Hardest level in the game imo

[@supergoat94]

I finally beat it after 5 hours and many, many deaths.

[@reggietheporpoise]

These are a lot of fun, and you guys are great hosts! I know it’s a family channel, but the fact that the odd swear doesn’t just slip out amid everything is an absolute feat.

[@thesarge7732]

Omg, that first handover to Rosie, and she just walked it...brilliant 😂🎉

[@oscarbazan1679]

Splashing Sprint and To the Beat were the most difficult for me.

[@flippingnational]

These are my last two. I've tried every night for the last week. I am taking a break so I don't break my controller

[@xliquidpliskinx4327]

To the beat was def the hardest for me

[@kobekoh]

​@@flippingnationaldawg i beat splashing spirit in 45 minutes more or less

[@flippingnational]

@@kobekoh nice! I've only just got to getting past the flame wall

[@sh0gun77]

@@flippingnationalliterally same. Finally beat them today. Took me a couple of hours. 😞

[@emilioslouca2430]

Thank you, Access Crew. Chef kiss on all fronts. The game, the challenges picked and most important... the reverent professional tone and demeanor of the skilled Robert Pearson. Well done. Rosie is quite awesome as well.

[@Kratos4ever94]

Despite the return of the Rage Rob, he ultimately pulled through all the challenge stages in a single sitting. He deserves some well earned praise for that one. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@CrazeeAdam]

Rob: there will be no raging Also Rob: *shouts and rages at 1st Square level*

[@thembill8246]

That freaking splash one of the squares took me FOREVER

[@ProcrastinatingGameCat]

Saw this with my 3 year old and my 7 year old that both love astrobot. They and I loved this stream :) and what an ending indeed

[@stevef38]

'To the beat' almost had me. Took me way too long 😅😅

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

I finished all of these levels in Astro Bot. They are definitely more challenging than the other levels in the game and if I died, I would be sent back to the beginning of the level.

[@ShadowofthePhalanx]

Rosie keeps saying "unlucky" when its Robs fault every time haha. 😂

[@michaelwill5972]

Rob is actually pretty good at platforming

[@RDSwords]

Robert S. "Aggressive Baby" Pearson hahahaha

[@MikeRKO316]

I'm looking forward to the Astrobot challenges/Speedruns on the Christmas Maze this year!

[@ShadianVise]

This is definitely Christmas Maze content

[@MegaJAD2011]

I got the Platinum Trophy! Some of these levels were an absolute nightmare - I get shudders every time I see a rubber duck now...

[@Manganra7]

Rosie’s “I am impeccable” was pretty epic. Totally superhero intro material.

[@xperience-evolution]

Splashing Sprint is killing me

[@Gaskinmoo79]

Just finished stream. Rosie really does have top tier gaming skills.

[@dmravi13]

Rob raging in this stream reminded me of the Games Meister! Whatever happened to that series?

[@Gaskinmoo79]

Hands it to Rosie... "Whats the button again?" ... does it first time.

[@shazam2022]

I like that support between the two they are true friends true family 😅❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊

[@joeltrowe5155]

Really love this challenge videos...want some more of it.

[@k-leighmarbury8128]

Great job Rob!!! This was a treat to watch.

[@LargeLimpet]

Well done Rob! I've been doing these symbol challenges and some are no joke 😂. Just have X left.

[@mariomunoz525]

52:08 Great recovery Rob 👍

[@kobekoh]

hey i watched the stream just to see him beat the great master challenge blindfolded one hand behind his back

[@graemedocherty-walthew3382]

52:08 😂 brilliant 👏

[@avalon7832]

Happy birthday Dave!!

[@onnxyeah]

That time slowing effect looks great.

[@MrNLough]

This challenge is a great dose of good vibes. Thanks Rob n Rosie :)

[@SuperAntz85]

I haven't watched the whole thing but I'm going to assume Rob somehow remained professional enough not to swear. And for that I give him massive applause! When I went through these, if I had a swear jar, I'd have been able to buy a copy of the game for everyone watching the stream

[@rolypoky]

I had to laugh when Rob repeated “keep up the good vibes!” Through gritted teeth as he was suffering on the circle levels.

[@RoryStarr]

Genuinely impressive, Rob

[@torsvik2024]

I made it to 26:59, but then I got flashbacks to when I did these myself, and woe the music is still driving me up the walls. But good job so far Rob, I'm sure you smashed the rest ^_^

[@nc55]

Splashing sprint was hell. Especially I had to do it twice. Once for me once for my son.

[@andykegs5584]

Just got the Astro Plat so can finally come back and watch this, can’t wait to see how rob handles these, I think there’s only a few that annoyed me so should be fine!

[@marquard18]

Thanks for the motivation, I just got the Platinum trophy in Astro bot!!

[@GSpice2411]

Not to sow dissension but could we get a stream or video showing how quickly Rosie can finish these challenges?

[@aarontaylor2308]

Splashing sprint and the great master challenge were the only tricky ones for me. Got the platinum so happy days 😁

[@One-Watermelon]

Splashing Sprint gives me PTSD.... Rosie just did it like it was nothing. What a legend!

[@Sandmancoast]

Think this is the closet I’ve ever seen Rob come to swearing 😂 F………FILLY

[@CrazeeAdam]

I feel like Rosie and Rob's sister would be good friends. From the sounds of it xD

[@OGNabs]

Why does Rob remind me of Alan Carr chatty man… and why is he a hardcore MGS fanboy like me… -_- And why does he always put a smile on my face? Very strange how contagious he is =/

[@theoneallinblack]

I believe in you Rob. It's not about seeing you rage, it's that we know how much you want to achieve whatever the goal is... how into the game you are. All of us who love games have that person in us!

[@nicklovesohio]

34:09 made me laugh out loud. I know that feeling too well 😂

[@RD_Clarke]

These really remind me of the Knitted Knight Trials.

[@ghostlyone2]

Except if an ASTRO bot challenge takes more than 15 minutes you get mad. Meanwhile, I think the ripsnorter took me 3 weeks...

[@stevendavis1984]

Fragile frenzy had me in a frenzy lol 😂

[@thomaspickering2344]

Rob did so good! Fun watch.

[@mark-sk3do]

These levels are all just about sheer perseverance, Splashing Sprint is particularly difficult

[@shazam2022]

Okay, I remember that armadillo level that was a pain in the bum

[@mikezh3575]

Robs gotta give them one of those "hop moves!" You Know, hop on that Thang!

[@kenkioria]

I found Great master challenge easier than splashing sprint. Splashing sprint was just devious!

[@Valstrax_The_Pirate]

Finished and got the platinum for it. Those extra challenges especially in the later galaxies are challenging

[@eggsandchips91]

Wow, Rosie bossed that duck level 😮

[@codydoxey2497]

There was one level and the master challenge that had me chuck my controller and now it's making a clicking noise. Was literally shaking i was so relieved to get those levels done. So happy I was able to platinum the game.

[@MultiDenizen]

So great!

[@Thatbergelinboy]

Splashing Sprint and To The Beat took an embarrassing about of attempts.. The Grand Master Challenge is testing my patience now 😅

[@sammalone7881]

Honestly didn't find these to be brutally hard outside of Splashing Sprint, but they were still pretty fun.

[@TheCivico]

I bought it for my babygirl and ended up hooked!!! I get the platinum and this game is one of the most difficult game I have ever played!!!

[@noteuser15]

What a delightful freakin video

[@JohnnyLancast]

“This stream could be done in a half an hour!” Looks at video, hour and a half lol

[@clintonfredricks]

I hope we see Rob take on the master challenge next week 😄

[@retrogamerdad9621]

#VodSquad Kids and I are looking forward to picking this up as soon as we have the means. We'll content ourselves with the secondhand joy through you guys. 👍

[@johnpadley2861]

Rob is actually really good, Rosie is insanely good 😮

[@samuelcarlson1012]

This victory is as legitimate as Alex’s platinum in sack boys, big adventure.

[@likwid_smoke]

Splashing sprint is probably the hardest level imo only other one I would say that is potentially harder is the game master stage.

[@aarontaylor2308]

Bravo 👏 👏

[@dvdhound79]

Splashing Sprint, I thought, was harder than the final secret level.

[@GameQuestUK]

I found that 3 of the X challenges were pretty simple, especially compared to some of the other shape challenges.

[@hellaalferdinck5879]

I find the restroom breaks Rob's taken in this stream very suspicious... I'm convinced that instead of having a wee he's silently/ secretly raging in the restroom... 🤣

[@DenerNogueira]

"to the beat" was harder for me than the Master Challenge

[@GameQuestUK]

Yeah, it's definitely to the beat that I got stuck on. The rest of the X ones didn't take me half as many times.

[@victorexequielibanezbustos7177]

This is the best 😂

[@theheroofkvatch8370]

Rosie is aware of two things - the situation and Oasis

[@commander-fox-q7573]

51:40 *glances away from my 90 hours playtime* xD

[@dominiklieberenz5985]

Great game. These levels were really challenging. Would you guys know where to get the little plush figurine?

[@Tom-ec7nh]

Watching the VOD has me cackling.

[@mononoke721]

Are there time trials in this new Astro Bot? Those old PS Access streams of Astro's Playroom's time trials were a lot of fun - would be great to see that format brought back, though this was good too!

[@ryancoate5083]

It’s funny you mention it: They just announced free time trial levels coming to Astro Bot this year.

[@PassTheSpuds]

Hitman coming to PSVR2 in December. Rob’s perfect early Christmas gift. Can’t wait to see him stream it!

[@alanjamest83]

Some of these level exceed hand eye working as one😂

[@beady123]

I wonder if the toilet breaks involved going into a room and screaming for minutes at a time

[@shazam2022]

I have got it at 1:30 am about two nights ago it felt good 😊 to have

[@SPG113]

Splashing sprint was the worst. But the great master challenge… oh boy….

[@Michaelrojas24]

59:10 is where the real fun begins

[@legacyreaper1834]

Do you enjoy torture? 😂😂

[@ion_X]

That's the last bot?! Rosie they definitively included them for you

[@MrKurtis88]

Access, what headsets do you use, they sound so clear amd I'm in the market for an upgrade

[@theheroofkvatch8370]

Rosie’s reactions to robs rage are so brilliant

[@danistheguy]

Bring back the meister!

[@andrewbeecroft6509]

I've got the plat, these challenge levels fell into "harsh but fair" levels of difficulty. It's having to do it in a single run that can be frustrating, clearing a tricky section just to have to redo it when you make a mistake.

[@darthslain]

weird way to spell unfair frustration pits

[@sublucky74]

I need Rosie to help me with these levels. I can do the main levels but these are mostly too tough for me

[@paulsikorski9109]

got my nephew to do it

[@Wokevaccine]

You know your getting old when you remember being a master at Mario 64, and now getting my grandson to do these levels.

[@thunderdragon8341]

out of all the levels in this game the final secret level is hardest took me 2 days to final do it

[@11simondo]

I’ve only platinumed 1 game my 1 & only platinum Astro playroom ❤

[@mudshark0761]

I just want to know is this ilmed with a delay as the amount of "F" bombs I would have dropped playing these levels would have shut the channel 😂

[@jaysonmerritt2541]

I cannot beat the one with the lava at the start. I get to the fire breathing things with the duck and the black slime and I can't outrun the fire things

[@nicolem6752]

A trick for me was using the ducks water to knock out the black blobs and black goo before running and initiating the fire

[@esteban280889]

I finally got them all done. just master challenge yet for plat

[@Ricky-qq2bz]

Spolier!! The uncharted level was my favorite. Who else enjoyed it and would have loved more levels like that and gow? Awesome game so far. 👌

[@andyc7666]

Same here. Uncharted was my fave too mainly because I've played Uncharted. God of War I've barely played. I just haven't got round to it

[@spiderhulk26]

😃🎉
