A mighty chunk. Hope this game's a good 12 - 14 hours at least. Might be one of the funnest platinums to get in a while. Day 1 for me and millions of others I bet as well.

As platinum of astro bot is so easy and not fun for a confirmed player.. i went for it because i was missing like 2-3 artifacts and a weird trophy with a rabbit after i finished the game.
I hope the game will be a little more challenging.

Day one nonetheless

Number1TailzFan10d ago

Ya, should start off easy/medium difficulty and slowly ramp up from there to fairly challenging, ideally.

MASTER_RAIDEN10d ago

I couldn’t agree more. I honestly don’t get why everyone is excited for this game. The first one was extremely basic and way too easy. As a glorified presentation of jthw dual sense controller, it was fine I guess. But as a full blown game? It was so forgettable.

DarXyde10d ago

I think the Mario formula is the way to go:

The main game can be pretty chill with some exceptional challenges for those who want to engage with it and go for the platinum.

It's such a great approach.

Millions...... and millions.....

" Astro Bot will require approximately 66 GB"

By helicoptergirl logic modern warfare 3 had a 20hr campaign then

This is not on 7th gen consoles file size means nothing this gen

Hypertension14010d ago

Japanese games like resident evil, all soulsborne games, and the evil within, and many others seem to fix large scale games into less than 50gb.

I'm kind of sad this is the ONLY major exclusive coming out this holiday season for PlayStation. So I hope it's S-tier.

Curious to see what that interprets to in terms of length. Cuz there’s a lot of really cool physics simulations in the game, not sure if those are something that would take up much space or not. Either way I’m stoked. They’re going to release free challenge levels after launch as well.

1nsomniac10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

Physics simulations aren’t assets they’re calculations and algorithms therefore they take practically no space whatsoever.

The size content will be the same as any other game mostly raw sound files. The rest, mainly hi res textures.

Psychonaut859d ago

Ok cool. I genuinely wasn’t sure, makes sense though. Thanks. So seems to imply it will be sizable then, that’s good.

rlow110d ago

This game not only looks fantastic but will play fantastic. Worth every gig!

Gaming4Life198110d ago

Looks like good fun, definitely picking this up day one.
