The free astro bot game that came with every ps5 was a love letter to playstation games, really enjoyable.

[@thepuppetmaster9284]

The irony with Sony focus on big budget live service PvP/PvE games is that the only game that received universally very positive receptions from this SOP is *Astro Bot* , a platformer who's not just looks unique, super fun to play, and showed PS creative DNA from PS1-3 era but i bet the budget probably only 5-10% of whatever Sony spent for Concord, Fairgame$, and Marathon.

[@trainerbrendan969]

Its also a shock in that unlike most of the games on this SOP this trailer actually showed Gameplay. Which apparently is a shocking thing to do.

I know Max is saying this is how they hype you up for Dynasty Warriors games since the PS2, but I was popping off when I saw the Omega Force. Dynasty Warriors games are my favorite type of games. I love being a one man army and slaying soldiers by the thousands.

[@MegiddoTheImmaculate]

I've been wanting them to do something different for a while. This looks like they might actually be using a new engine which has me pretty excited.

[@nocturnalscotsman]

Dynasty Warriors always hooked me by their insane cgi intros (still watch all to this day and DW7's is on another level when Zhao Yun dropkicks a horse🤣) And then the incredible music in the OST's would keep me hooked throughout the gameplay. Besides the cost of some of the games I don't think I've been disappointed with a DW purchase besides DW9. Although personally I haven't played many non Dynasty/Samurai "warriors" since I genuinely enjoy seeing their depiction characters from history. Felt nice to see many of them again in games like Wo Long .

well the introduction to the game began with the introduction to the studio which was described as "developers having vast experience in multiplayer games"... at this point it was obvoius its multiplayer and even the cinematic before that with the different "classes" and their abilities hinted heavily at that. they didnt even try to hide it when max said it. we all knew

[@earlyriser03]

Nope. Concord was reported as one of Sony’s live-service games when the burger trailer dropped last year. And Asad Qizilbash clearly stated Firewalk’s “incredible pedigree in the online multiplayer space” just before the CGI trailer played. It was made very obvious what this was.

[@ka7al958]
