Astro Bot PS5 wins Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2024

[@Dgrealy1]

Astrobot remembered that games are meant to be fun

[@Goobo0461]

@@Dgrealy1 and it made me remember why i love playing videogames

[@OtterloopB]

You mean a game that's joyful and clean with no agenda won? A game that's all about discovery and the pure joy of movement and gameplay won? And people are mad about that? If you're a fan of Wukong, I get it, but... a video game that remembers it's a _video game_ rather than a movie won! A game that anyone of any age can play, escape, and have fun. When did we all suddenly hate color and fun?

[@sastaassh1112]

It's not kids choice awards uq moron😂

[@AlastorAltruistGaming]

Probably around the 2010s. Games used to be fun during the arcade era; we, as gamers, have REALLY gone downhill over the decades.

[@johnathandoe6034]

People will scream about "woke games are ruining the industry >:(" But then the most apolitical game ever wins Goty and people start screaming again

[@JarumaruKnox]

This is what Astro Bot needed. Now we can be sure, there will be new games further on in the future. It became the real mascot of Playstation 💙

[@TheDarkOne2217]

From being a tech demo to win game of the year....congratulations astro bot

[@BenWillock]

Right now there's an executive sitting at Xbox HQ cursing over cancelling Crash 5, Spyro, Banjo Threeie etc.

[@Austinator0630]

Xbox has its own issues that set itself apart from PlayStation.

[@ingamedetails]

AstroBot: 1. No politics 2. Fun, Nostalgic 3. Everyone at any age can play it 4. Innovative (makes fantastic use of PlayStation hardware including haptic feedback, speaker and gyroscopic control and the game has crazy physics, underwater levels, platforming, flying) 5. No language barriers, everyone around the world can play it 6. Made by a team of 65 people 7. Is PlayStation’s new mascot 8. AstroBot replicates mechanics from God Of War, Horizon Zero Dawn and Uncharted (and they can if they want to replicate mechanics from other games) 9. Embraces the fact that it’s a video game and made it FUN Wukong: 1. Loved by manchild 2. Loved by people with no job with a lot of time to spare 3. Loved by single people with no family, hold onto controller by themselves and don’t have anyone to pass it to 4. Loved by nerds in basement 5. Tries to be a FromSoftware title 6. Tries to be a movie and takes itself too seriously Other Nominees: 1. Trash 2. Boring 3. Stupid Verdict: -AstroBot wins GOTY Wukong and other nominee fans: -Bitching and crying in YT comment sections

[@Goobo0461]

I love 3d platformers and astro bot is my goty too but this is just mean man, i get people being upset and throwing a tantrum is really dumb but your comment is baseless and just awful. Games aren’t meant to cause conflict, all of the (actually good) games that this year had to offer don’t deserve to be put down because you and i like the competition more. Appretiate all good games.

[@bfgdkfjslkfjsd-c7j]

You sound just as bad as the wukong fans LOL

[@akebikomichi7101]

Man you sound worse than those Wukong fans fr.

100% Deserved winner. This game was absolute perfection from start to finish, it was innovative used EVERY inch of the PS5 and the Dual Sense controllers, great gameplay and was absolutely beautiful.

I dont get why people are mad wukong lost. Im waiting for my copy to arrive to see if it really is a revolutionary game that surpasses anything like it or if its just another ok souls like which is what i see so far.

Even though there are lots of fun games play that doesn't mean I should automatically think this deserves it

[@julbiot9768]

@@emuman09 Omg, you're everywhere. Get over it. You think it shouldn't and won't change anything. Every SINGLE YEAR, there's a group of people who whine for months about how the goty should have been different. It's like gamers have to get mad over anything "Graphics ruin games" but then get mad when a 4k robot isn't realistic. "Videogames are turning into movies" but then complain about how games need good narrative. "Playstation releasing new consoles I don't have to buy if I don't want to! This sucks" but also "Xbox release something you're forgetting us gamers!" "There's a woman, this is so woke" but then "There's no women, this is not inclusive" It's ridiculous nobody can keep you happy like just play it, you don't have to make three hours long video essays about how you think everything is bad, the gaming industry is so tiring just because of the people

[@julbiot9768]

@@emuman09 Yeah basic reading comprehension and you'd understand I'm talking about gamers in general complaining about everything and anything. You are in this case complaining about the Goty, not surprised, and then I used something called "examples". Hope this helped!

One of these days, I keep saving money & I’ll get this game, see it for myself! I’m certain it’s a lot of fun, but as it stands, I’m currently waiting to get back to work AND I’m also playing Uncharted 4 in the meantime.

[@vaasmasseffect2003]

No offense to astro bot its a really good game but a game that couldnt go past 2 million sales with 95% positive view aint the same as 20 million with 95% positive view, having lots of sales isnt necessarily the main reason but lets not pretend that astro bot won purely based on merit, gaming journalists didnt want bmw to win and so chose an option that is hard to criticize, at least it wasnt dragon age veilguard but yeah definitely something behind the scenes

[@davidcase8972]

A game being “more popular” is completely different than “quality” of it. By your argument COD & EA sports games are the “best” games every year. Astro Bot is a well deserved GOTY 🤷

[@vaasmasseffect2003]

@davidcase8972 if COD gets 95% positive reviews it should, dont pick half the argument and twist it.

[@zombiezone2010]

​. You want to judge the game objectively? Look at metacritic user score for both games and come back to see whether your 95% for both games are sound. Don't pick half the argument and twist it.

[@vaasmasseffect2003]

@zombiezone2010 sorry I dont follow what a retarted zen/xi gaming journalist with blue hair tells me to love, and you can bet that if dragon age sold more (lets say 5 million) astro bot would be lucky to get a nomination, this isnt to say astro bot is a bad game its not at all, but ff7 had a higher metacritic score so why didn't it win GOTY? You cant deny that astro bot was chosen only so that gaming journalists feel better about themselves. Really if they kept the user voting at the % that it used to be instead of the pathetic 10% they gave and astro bot won I wouldnt say anything cause I know but they changed it to 90% journalist opinion to 10% user opinion this year suddenly and I can see why

When a game as Astrobot win as game of the year . That an absolute proof that gaming industry is a fail or down or boring and proof to me that I wasted my money on buying ps5. I don’t mean by that to disrespect the game it self .
