Confession Time - Astro Boy PLAYSTATION 2

[SonicTheRainboom]

I don't know why, I actually like this game. Maybe I'm a sucker for bad games. Best 8 hours I've spent beating a game ever! Blue Knight was REALLY annoying to beat though.

[gabrielxlr9]

aonde compra agora esse jogo??

[Gaheroo]

Buddy*

[Gaheroo]

I should know what it looks like, I watched the show ALL the time.

Also, that sounds like an interesting experiment... I'll see if my puddy can get a .ZIP file of the game and load it to a PSP.

[Gaheroo]

It has some nice cutscenes cause that's the show. XD

[gmintyfresh]

@Gaheroo Yep, you're right. I wonder if the psp version play any better

[Deathfromtheright]

oh and where can i find walkthroughs for this D:

[Deathfromtheright]

LETS ROCKET!

[elmofreak121]

You sound like Piers Morgan when you say he has a slightly annoying voice!

[BekksRich]

God I love this game. I especially love the whole being able to fly around and go wherever you like thing. Makes it sort of an adventure. :) Two thumbs up!

[neonrainbowful]

I had this game..and I miss it :(

[FlamingHotPants]

@stringanime What's even better is that they're littered through out the game

[FlamingHotPants]

Aw. You didn't get to the "I think I can hear something!" part. Favorite line of the game.

[stringanime]

GBA game was developed by Jap game company "Treasure." No mystery why it's the best Astro boy game

[FlamingHotPants]

@stringanime It also explains some of the typos.

[MTFAMV]

the new astro boy game for psp ps2 and wii play like astro boy omega factor its not as good but if youre looking for a game thats like a sequel to omega factor with 2 player coop than astro boy the movie game is for you

the ds one sucks

[Gamndon]

this game used to be awesome, I never got past the boss in outter space tho(I think that he was the last boss) I might go back and play it on an emulator. If it was remade, this game would be BEASTY!

[mkdhdh01]

@Gamndon everyone saids its garbage cmon every gamer knows that in almost all games the tutorials + first missions suck

[RustyPete12]

@deathsign09 I agree! My friend's concern is well-demanded: why don't you like this game? It looks awesome!

[MsCocaKolaLover]

this was a big bust for me.i thought the game was gonna be pretty cool, but my bubble has been burst.

[WittleKittyCat]

where can I find the soundtrack to this game?

[gmintyfresh]

@WittleKittyCat I'd try Play-asia, at a pinch it might be on ebay but I think you'd have to be patient waiting for such an obscure item to turn up I suspect :D

[WittleKittyCat]

@gmintyfresh I mean just to listen to it, not to buy it or anything

[gmintyfresh]

@WittleKittyCat Try a site called Galbadia Hotel

[xJonTheReformedx]

lmao it turns into superman 64 at 7:30

[gmintyfresh]

@sasueke23 I agree!

[AstroBoyRocks75]

i have this game its awesome im up to the blue night hes totaly hard!!!!! if you past him tell me the stragets i need to know!!!!! thanks!!!!

[gmintyfresh]

@AstroBoyRocks75 Must admit not really watched much Astro Boy, I have played the amazing GBA version to death though it's amazing

[Dragonrider1227]

I liked bits of this game but you have to get through some boring and repetitive stuff to get to those fun bits. It would be better if you could choose the missions once you complete the game

[gmintyfresh]

@Dragonrider1227 I keep thinking I was a touch harsh on this game, might be time for a revisit I suspect :D

[Elementa2006]

It's a shame the distributors for the Western release gave all the heavy promoting to the PS2 version over the more superior Gameboy Advanced version, which had a much different plot than this one.

[gmintyfresh]

@Elementa2006 Yep I totally agree, stil we know the truth eh? ;)

[michealewk]

graphics look ok for a ps2 game

[gmintyfresh]

@michealewk They're not too bad :D

[calopie00]

obviuosly those crappy robots hes fighting after the birds a tenma's....they call him tobio, for one reason.

[calopie00]

whoa, its almost like watching an ep of astro.... same beginning. if ididn't know any better, id say i was watching and ep.

ican't believe they got the voices too so cool... 5 stars.

[KittenofTwilight24]

Huh. they used the english opening but used the japanese opening for background music.

[ewok86z]

ur a retard man blah blah shrimp yea kangaroo

[gmintyfresh]

I'm English you thick xenophobic bastard

[CCTXGABE]

while it was not that great of an expierience i liked some of the boss fights and some of the bgm but the whole psychic kid thing was sorta wierd. ive no idea whwere my copy is anymore and i dont intend to look. i had to see what somone else had to say about it since i just rembered. 5 outta 5 bro.

[gmintyfresh]

Thanks mate, the game just seemed a bit listless and devoid of character glad I wasn't on my own too thinking this was a little below par :D

[CCTXGABE]

greatly said id agree.,and you are welcome.

[calopie00]

@gmintyfresh

hmmm i wonder i you can play it on a ps3... probably not though right? i got the newest one, the 120 gb, most likely wont let me play it.... all my friends have xbox though, so i feel outta the loop.... OOPS, sorry, off topic

[calopie00]

@CCTXGABE

psychic kid? what? i don't remember any psychic kid in the series... why in the world would they put it in the game?

[shouyume]

He's awfully... shiny... in the game.... not that he's not shiny anyway, but it's difficult to see the graphics.... Oh well. XD You can't expect much from the 2003 version of Astro Boy, anyway. XD

[gmintyfresh]

It's sorely lacking character mate D

[sayastra]

i like Astro Boy a lot, game wise he's made some duds-- this doesn't look so crappy, the look of the game is actually quite acurate *note, they're going by the 2003 cartoon reference where he is longer and where the intro cut scenes come from, rather than the 80's version, or the craptastic 60's version.

I think the controls and possibly the camera angles seem a bit dodgy- and well, team sonic put more effort into this then there own mascot (which they're slowly killing with crap games) by the-

[sayastra]

@sayastra on the NES game apparently he can fly.... i don't know how- but he can :S

[calopie00]

@sayastra

rocket boots

[sayastra]

@calopie00 i know about the rocket boots- i'm saying how do they work? And once again, this is a referrence to the 2003 (not the 60's or 80's series) so that's why you're not familiar with the characters.

[sayastra]

@sayastra and you don't know what i'm talking about unless you've played the crap (both in look and control) Nes game.

[gmintyfresh]

I'm going to give this a second chance mate. I just had a quick blast on it to be honest :D

[tyzwain]

Lol it's annoying when games rabbit on way too much. Good vid matey :)

[gmintyfresh]

I know you expect it in an RPG not an bloody action game!!

[cloudskipa]

I also picked this up a few months ago on the cheap and never got round to trying it out, don't think I'll bother now. ;-)

[gmintyfresh]

I'd give it a go but as you can see just don't expect too much!! :D

[aidanpole]

Mmmm, young boys in just there shorts??? What game are uou playing Gminty??Bit worried about ya! lol

Seriously now, never played any of the Astro Boy games, and by the look of this I now realise why!

Thanks for the vid!

[gmintyfresh]

Mate I can't reiterate enough how hardcore the GBA version is, it's developed by Treasure and it really old school you should check it out!! :D

[LPhela]

If you like the cutsecenes of this game, be sure to check out the anime Astroboy (2003).

It is where these scenes are taken from.

Astroboy the game (PS 2) has nice looks, but the controls are a bit messy.

[gmintyfresh]

I thought it must have been, thanks for the pointer mate I'll definitly check it out

[LPhela]

Sure, you are welcome.:D

Sadly Astro boy (2003) is a little short.

But if you like the storyline then Astroboy (1980) is definitely worth a look too.

[sayastra]

@LPhela if you're talking the series, they both have the same amount of episodes (51- note 1980 took 2 episodes and made 1 nonsensical episode -that screwed up the rest of the story line-for the western market so it's 80's has ONE more episode.)

[AstroBoyRocks75]

@LPhela yeah they are and have you seen all 50 episodes i have and their awesome so are the 80s to in not used to the black and white tv so it cool to see what astro looked like back then and i also like the movie but wairs Zoran not cora i want Zoran!!!

[eterniaboy]

Haven't heard good things about this one. I agree the GBA version is awesome.

[gmintyfresh]

It's fine if you're about 10!! :D

[ash81b4u]

Yeah this game is certainly missing something. Never played an Astro Boy game and this hasn't convinced me to mate. I will take your word other versions are better. :)

[MrTEZUKAFOREVER]

astro boy omega factor is very good you should try that

[gmintyfresh]

I agree with you 100%!! A sublime little game :D

[Dragonrider1227]

Yes. Astro Boy: Omega Factor for the GBA is the best AB game ever. Possibly one of the best games on the GBA peroid

[MrTEZUKAFOREVER]

thats what i was thinking dr1227

[gmintyfresh]

Like MrTEZUKAFOREVER says the GBA version is awesome, part awesome treasure run and gun, part shooter, and with RPG elements it's amazing mate :D

[MrTEZUKAFOREVER]

did anyone play the new astro boy game thats supposed to be like omega factor

[gmintyfresh]

Nope which console has it come out on?

[MrTEZUKAFOREVER]

ps2,psp,wii and ds

note:i have the ds one its not like omega factor i reccomend the other ones not the ds or wii ones

[gmintyfresh]

Mate I'll check that out thanks :D
