Edit: I reply in the wrong comment, apologies. Original: Well u won't have silly scene the "puff puff" since well is "woke"/ "westernized" now, even though you never saw anything in the puff puff, it was just fade to black (dq8) and just text implying stuff.
I don't have a playstation but I remember when it came out there was nothing but surprised positivity about the original Astro Bot game. It seemed very cool to me but not cool enough to convince me to buy a playstation and a television
I imagine the people clowning on Jake about being excited for Astro Bot haven't actually played the Playroom and probably dismiss it as just a "kids game" or because of the PlayStation branding. That's just a guess though, but I wouldn't be surprised.
Anybody who was clowning on you for looking forward to Astrobot is crazy. That game looks amazing. I just pre-ordered it a few days ago, which is something I rarely do.
Game looks mid. Drench in brand nostalgia with no identity or soul of its own. Not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as actual mascot platformers. Smh Hope that game goes double plastic. If this sells more than Sackboy their ain’t no hope for the brand identity anymore.

Mario and Luigi Brothership, Zelda Echoes of Wisdom, MVC Collection, Super Mario Party Jamboree, Wu Kong, Ace Attorney Investigations, MGS3, Indiana Jones, Dead Rising, Star Wars Outlaws and DQ3 HD! Cant wait to play those!
Imagine , they made so much money with the Pachinko machine that they have the biggest MGS budget ever. Finally Kojima could've been doing anything he wanted😂
@@Spam591_as an avid fan of playstation exclusives i found them a bit lacking in recent years, there were a couple big ones but i was expecting more. So if they are kicking it up next year i am excited
@@rensb9214 I 100% agree. The games are all about excellent, they just come too infrequently. But yeah all indications internally suggest a late-PS4 era type deluge of first party content is gonna happen again over the next two years
Conscript, Mina the Hollower, Rise of the Golden Idol, Avowed, Diesel Legacy, and Shadows of Doubt is supposed to release out of early access. All of these things are allegedly before the year is out.
Ones I’m excited for: The Thing, Astrobot, the new Life is Strange (though hesitant), Silent Hill 2, LOZ game where you play as Zelda, and Kingdom Come Deliverance! I love Medieval style fighting games.
I mean you got Metaphor, Star Wars, Stalker 2, Space Marine, Frostpunk, Dragon Age, Path of Exile 2, Age of Mythology, Avowed, Indiana Jones, CoD, Life is Strange, Astro Bot, Visions of Mana, Diablo 4 xpac, WoW xpac, Legends of Zelda game, SH2, Mario and Luigi Brothership, Flight Sim 2024, LEGO Horizon, Assassins Creed, bunch of indies/AA games I can't remember right now and thats all in like 3 months which feels like a LOT more then last year to me personally.
I’m curious about Avowed, obsidian does a Skyrim-esque thing in the Pillars universe, could be awesome, but I honestly haven’t seen enough to truly be “excited”. That and Outlaws are the only other major releases I’m actually interested in for the rest of this year I think
Random note how you liked the original crash bandicoot: I have a memory of playing the first game on a demo kiosk in a store. It was the very first screen of the game and I could not figure out at all what to do. Up until that point I had run to the right of a 2D screen, on a rare occasion run to the left even! But then I somehow realised - probably by random dpad presses - that you could run into the background of the screen! It destroyed my imagination...in a good way.
After the crazy 2023, this year is a bit lighter for big AAA games (and thank god!), but the indie scene is absolutely crazy this year. There's easily a few really good indies coming out every month, I can't keep up.
I am so stoked for Space Marine 2. I never thought I’d see a SM 2 , so that alone was a welcome surprise. But I was even more stoked to see it was done by the same guys that did that really underrated World War Z game. If the campaign is strong, and the multiplayer is at least good, it has all the ingredients of something I’ll put at least 100 hours into. Really really hope it’s good
I finally started TLOU2 this past weekend. I'm absolutely loving it so far. I had no idea the game was this fun to play! I'm looking forward to DRDR as well, might be the first "new" game I buy at launch in many years, though the original is my favorite game ever so that's not entirely surprising.
I just played TLOU2 last year. Prepare to be blown away. Best story in a game ever! I was mad at first and stopped playing 😂, but picked it back up after a couple days and so glad I did.
@@cherrycoke3254 I just finished it not even an hour ago haha. I wasn't expecting to like Abby anywhere near as much as I did. I might like her part of the story more than Ellie's honestly 😶
I'm looking forward to: •Astrobot •Thank goodness you're here •Rugrats adventures in Gameland •The casting of frank stone •Silent hill 2 remake • Mgs delta snake eater (if it comes out this yr) •plucky squire (this is a maybe for me and if it comes out this yr) •until dawn remake •Dredge collectors edition •as dusk falls ps5 edition People are crazy to doubt you for being excited for astrobot!
I'm so pleased you mentioned The Plucky Squire. I'm so hyped for it too! Also, you're not alone, Jake. Astro Bot looks awesome and is my most anticipated game rn.
Dude, Astro Playroom was one of the best new IP I've played in the last few years. Everyone in my house wanted to play it and had a blast on every level. It was Mario level great platforming
I'm looking forward to avowed, Hellskate, No rest for the wicked, Black myth wukong, Gothic 1 remake, Unknown 9 awakening, Dragoin age veilguard, expedition 33, South of midnight, Entoria the last song, Codex lost, Clockwerk revolution, Dungeonborne, Light no fire, Outrward 2, Fable, etc. Right now mostly playing dota 2 and elden ring (though I picked up nightingale
I've sort of fallen off with VR but Behemoth might be the game to get me back into it, plus it'll be winter and more time to chill inside. Looks cool like Shadow of The Collosus mixed with their previous game that and the time travel game The Wanderer. And clown face game.
Nice picks! From the ones you mentioned, I didn't know about Gori and Kingsmaker. They both seem really cool and I want to try them at some point. This second half of the year is not feeling light, at least to me. Trails through Daybreak, Visions of Mana, Astro Bot, Ys X Nordics, Metaphor ReFantazio, Dead Rising, Romancing Saga 2, Mario & Luigi Brothership, DQ3 HD, Ace Attorney Investigations Collection. There are a lot of pretty cool-looking games (with dates!) coming out. I think if you are looking at the AAA or "heavy hitters" side of things, I could seem a little light. Slitterhead is looking a little rough, but I still want to try it. Also, I can finally play Alan Wake 2 since we are getting the physical edition!! I think I'm gonna skip Black Myth Wukong until they release it on a disc.
kinda glad this year was pretty slow for gaming. Been attacking my backlog lately. This gives me a break from playing the lastest games. Its absolutely insane how many games drop nowadays.
Outlaws, space marine 2 and MGS3 if it drops are my top 3. Only thing you missed that I’m so excited for is neva , the next game from the team behind Gris, no firm date but 2024 slated. Plus it’s got a wolf/ dog so I’m gna cry I guess
These are the games I'm looking at for the remainder of 2024 1 Nobody Wants To Die - 17th July 2 Star Wars Outlaws - 30th August 3 Stalker 2 Hearths Of Chernobyl - 5th September 4 Astrobot - 6th September 5 COD Black Ops 6 - 25th October 6 Life Is Strange Double Exposure - 29th October 7 Slitterhead - 8th November 8 AC Shadows - 12th November 9 Avowed - 12th November 10 The Thing Remastered - No Release Date 11 Indiana Jones And The Great Circle - No Release Date 12 Lego Horizon Adventures - No Release Date 13 Vampire The Masquerade Bloodline 2 - No Release Date 14 Metal Gear Solid 3 Remastered - No Release Date 15 Dragon Age The Veilguard - No Release Date 16 Wolf Among Us 2 - No Release Date I am also keeping a close eye on from a VR Space Batman Arkham Shadows - 13th October Metro Awakening And for DLC I'm looking at Avatar Frontiers Of Pandora (The Sky Breaker DLC) - 16th July Diablo IV (Vessel of Hatred DLC) - 8th October Starfield (Shattered Dimensions DLC) Possible Spiderman 2 DLC, hopefully Top 3 most anticipated from the above list I'm most looking forward to Star Wars Outlaws AC Shadows Wolf Among Us 2 But Spiderman DLC would jump to the top if it got announced
Just for reference, on the 1st half, the games I've picked up so far in 2024 were 1 WWE 2k24 2 Bannishers Ghost Of New Eden 3 Prince of Persia The Lost Crown 4 System Shock 3 (on PS5) 5 Hifi-Rush (on PS5) 6 Tekken 8 7 Senuas Saga Hellblade 2 8 Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League 9 Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered DLC WWE 2K24 (Season Pass DLC) Mortal Kombat 1 (Character Pack 1 DLC) Alan Wake 2 (Night Springs DLC) Hitman 3 (The Undying & Disruptor Pack DLC) Atomic Hearth (Trapped in Limbo DLC) And, I will pick up Yakuza Infinite Wealth once I play more games in the series
@@SRW_ I got Starfield for free for the most part, though, due to Gamepass on PC, and I heavily modded Starfield. I spent the game running around playing as Batman with guns while I had Mass Effect crew in my squad. For the 1st 20 hours, I just played the game normally, and then I got a little bored
@@bobjacob4237 I paid the 140 dollar pre order. Personally i feel like ive gotten far more moneys worth out of the game. And now with mods its getting even better. Very fun game.
@SRW_ Yes, 1st 20 hours were great, and I really enjoyed it, but then a lot of the side quests started to feel quite similar to me so I needed something to pick the momentum back up. Which is fair as ya could say that about a lot of big RPGS. Honestly, 1 of the big RPGs like that I didn't think had any similar quests was the Witcher
Dragon Ball Sparking Zero for me, I've been a dragon ball fan since I was a little kid playing Budokai 1 on GameCube and i loved the Budokai Tenkiachi series on PS2. I can't wait.
@dylanbyard4594 Budokai 1 is what actually introduced me to the anime, and I got as many copies of the series on VHS as I could find, GT was mainly what I could find in the store so I had to rely on pawn shops/online dbz site at the time. I loved doing the tournament modes in all the games, just was so much fun.
Astrobot, Sackboy, Crash... They're all fun with diverse levels but without a story, they'll always fall short compared to something like Psychonauts 2. We need way more games like THAT!
Not every game needs a crazy story. That is what made older games fun a lot of the time. Just hop in and play levels in whatever order you feel like at the time. It’s moved so far in the other direction that a lot of games now a days are closer to a movie than a game
As someone who still has the bethesda rpg itch i can't wait for avowed and am glad they are sticking with the scope outer worlds because i already have so many long games im playing right now.
I am excited for Dead Rising remake. I'm not as hyped for it as I am for RE remakes because this one will be one-to-one remake but since I haven't played the original in years. I want to play this one as a fresh experience, especially since it will have a better survivor AI and some new gameplay additions.
I think I remember you saying that you like to play horror games during Halloween. If you dont have something in mind already, I recommend Still Wakes the Deep. It's pretty creepy. I wish I had saved it for Halloween myself.
Just Space Marine 2 that comes to mind for me, but Plucky Squire looks good & I'll be picking up Astro Bot likely at boxing day or black Friday if it's on sale. I'd buy it day one but I've got so many platformers in my backlog I can't justify it. Mostly hoping to get time this year to play a bunch of games I haven't gotten to over the years, but we'll see what I actually end up getting around to as most of this year has been spent getting my game room setup finally.
I am amped for the dead rising deluxe remaster, I hope that its more of a remake and we can actually move and aim guns, I'm hoping, maybe a sprint button?
I would say astro bot, zelda echoes of wisdom, mario and Luigi brothership, indiana Jones, and avowed. You're right, it's a bit of a quiet year but I don't mind it personally
Great list Jake. I’m really excited to check out Enotria: The Last Song! I’m also looking forward to Astro Bot, Frostpunk 2, Stalker 2 and Black Myth Wukong. Always look forward to your videos!
