What is the significance of Astro Bot winning Game of the Year?
I'm not going to sing anymore to save y'all's ears. Sorry about that. We are re-releasing our Astro Bot episode to celebrate it winning game of the year. Ryan and myself also picked Astro Bot for best game of the year. Sorry, Paul Blackmuth Wukong didn't quite make it, even though we know that was your favorite game of the year. But we are re-releasing this episode so you can live the hype, live the amazingness that is Astro Bot all over again. And we will be back at the new year to go over our most anticipated games of 2025. We hope you enjoy this episode. Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast. The day has arrived. One of our most anticipated titles of the entire year that we didn't even know about until the end of May has arrived. Astro Bot has released. We've both beaten it, and we're here today to break it down with one of our classic gaming deep dives. Stick with us as we break down graphics, gameplay, fun factor, and more
What are the main features of Astro Bot?
And I've even heard rumor that some people are whispering game of the year contender. What? Game of the year? We'll get to the bottom of all of that in this awesome episode. But first, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh. And joining me, he's the buster bulldog to my rocket, the iron girdle to my loins, the super giant sponge robot thing to my puddle of water.
It's Ryan. Dude, I will be your iron girdle any day of the week. You better believe it. And I'm so proud of you that the world knows who you are now. Because last episode, apparently, they didn't. In the middle of summer, Ryan.
You're still going to be my iron girdle?
That's the only time. Absolutely.
Oh, boy. That's real friendship right there, buddy. oh man all right so listen we are deep diving astrobot we just brought this up in our latest twig episode that we were playing this game it is time you and i have both beaten it like i mentioned um I literally finished it this morning. I was up at like 5 a.m., dude. And I was like, well, I'm up. I might as well finish up Astro Bot. And then sure enough, it took me about two hours and I beat it right before I headed off to work. So we are going to get into all things Astro Bot. This is the disclaimer that says, listen, we're going to cover a lot of aspects of this game. We are going to cover some of the abilities in the game. A few of the little secret things that you might come across.
This game doesn't have any huge spoilers. It's not like there's some huge twist or something like that. But if you want to go into this game completely blind, then you might want to come back to this episode later on. If you're the kind of person that's like, look, I just want to know what you guys think, and I'm going to pick it up and have fun with it. Hearing about an ability that you get in the game may not bother you, but, you know, we always like to respect people's, you know, thoughts on that kind of stuff. So, yes, we will talk about aspects of the game, but we're going to try not to, like, spoil or anything too crazy. But I don't really think there are any, like, major spoilers.
No, I mean, yeah. I mean, the basis of it is pretty simple. Rescue bots. That's about it.
Yeah. All right. So, you know, top of the show.
