DEATHSPRINT 66 is a racing game, except it's on foot, in a dystopian setting, and there's a lot of murder. And even though it looks chaotic, the game is surprisingly accessible and fast-paced.
Issue # 403 of Edge Magazine has been released, and it features reviews for games including Astro Bot, Space Marine 2, and more.
Wow, Edge are usually pretty stingy with scores, but they gave Astro Bot a 10. It really shows just how fantastic that game really is, getting universal acclaim.
Most of the time Edge gives Nintendo games high score, I am assuming they like Platformers?
Kudos to Team Asobi and Sony for this masterpiece though
See, I feel like you unintentionally stumbled upon one of Edge's main review issues: "they." Since it's not easy to know which critic(s) played what, it's tougher to grasp which elements make someone feel annoyed or excited. A pet peeve for you may carry more weight for me and vice versa.
Yet they have Outlaws a 7 which is super generous from them
I’ve seen them call other games for less
Certainly suspicious in light of Space Marine 2 netting a 6. I'm 99% confident it's more polished than my recent experience with Outlaws.
I'm dying for more Astro Bot content. Can't wait until more speed run levels come out in the following few months
I just got the plat yesterday. I hate those dam birds that get shot at you like missiles. But still loved every single level. Can't wait for the free update with more levels coming soon.
Astro’s pure video game. Good gameplay, pacing, design. There’s something refreshing about it. In comparison, I recently started FFRebirth and was already feeling open world intel burnout by Junon. Theres definitely still a place for linear games.
Deathsprint 66 is the lovechild of several old-school racers with a touch of death and a game show element that works better than it should.
TSA writes: Sumo Digital has stuck with the tried and true gameplay of a kart racer, but it’s doing a great job of blending that with a distinctive and deadly flair.
