I don't think Asobi twisted the knife... they reminded us that the knife had been twisted already, and not just with Sackboy.
Not to mention some salt for that wound when an Astro Bot skin was released for Sackboy: A Big Adventure
Honestly I miss A Little Big planet so much, they should definitely do like some sort of retro re-release
Honestly I'd take a LBP 1+2 remaster, that'd be great
I’ve been saying that Astro Bot 🤖 remind me of Little Big Planet but been criticised. The Sackboy Adventure was a PS5 which then came out on PS4 too I have it and like it. Astrobot’s look, design of levels and style remind me of sackboy from what a I’ve seen nice to see a platform ear doing well. We don’t love shooters.
Seems like such an easy thing to do too. Rerelease lbp but just with a much better level editor

Would play these as well Karting
Check out the private servers on rpcs3 if you ever feel like revisiting the old games. There's new levels being made every day!
Media Molecule wanted Sackboy to be Playstation mascot, but Sony turned it down saying that Playstation doesn't need a mascot because they tried in the past with other characters but it never worked. It wasn't till a new studio called Team Asobi at the time who Sony owns decided to make a game called Playroom for Sony Playstation Camera and it had a character called Astro Bot to show case how the hardware works as a fun game and because Sony like that so much they also used Astro Bot for another game called Playroom VR for Playstation VR to show case the hardware works as a fun game, then when PS5 was being made Sony decided to use Astro Bot since they loved the character so much to show how the PS5 Dual Sense controller works with a demo installed on every PS5 called Astro's Playroom. Astro Bot now has become Playstation mascot because the character belongs to Sony and can show how Sony hardware works with neat little games.
I think one of the reasons is that sackboy wasn't "cute" or japanese enough. In the box art in Japan they would make him look "cuter"
And now they're saying "Sony has no strong IPs". Pathetic. They could've had dozens of mascots to mine for shows and movies, but like always, Sony just shoots itself in the foot.
The Astro bot thing was made for the ps4 camera, not ps vr
@@ionobru Astro Bot was also used for Playstation VR
@@norso Seems spot on. Little Big Planet is fantastic, but Astro hit so many checks and is much more their "thing" than Sackboy could ever be.
I think you hit the nail with Dreams, as someone who has been a very active member since it's early access... the payoff of that game is great but takes too long to learn. It's especially apparent given the sheer scale of WHAT you can do in it.
LBP at it's heart is a 2D platformer that had nifty tools to jerry-rig it into something else. Dreams was literally anything, it doesn't even have to be a game, you can use it however you want and it's hard to quantify how a more casual player could get something out of it.
For instance I'm strictly a musician and treat Dreams as a DAW. I enjoy participating in music collaborations and sharing songs within the community; there is an entire side of the game I have BARELY touched and that's actually treating it like a video game. Meanwhile in LBP 1 & 2, I touched all corners of what could be done because it all looped back into the core of what the game was.
Dreams was honestly the natural evolution of LBP but really lacked what made it easy to get into
I had a nice time with dreams and I’m not an expert by any means. But I made some of those tutorial games and played around with art music and some game stuff. But yeah, you get to the point where it gets too hard/takes too long. And the community while really nice were either making memes or just taking forever to make things that either didn’t get released or they didn’t share. I liked it but I think it would be better to just learn programming 😂
@@jaybee4288 Programming is half the battle honestly, what makes Dreams easier to get into was it's curation system. Not much in that game is made from scratch and that's a good thing in all honesty.
I know for sure my music wouldn't have developed a signature style without a special few individuals custom/imported instruments. Honestly don't know what I'd do without them. You can say the same about people's sculpts and logic elements.
LBP will always be remenbered
Yes it will.
If LBP is forgotten, I'm dead
@TheGamerVideos I only forgot about it bc I was like 4 or 6
@@TheGamerVideosbut yeah
It will be remembered, not remenbered.
I think Media Molecule just doesn’t want anything to do with it anymore, unfortunately. Which is why we’re in this situation in the first place, had they never left it behind everything would probably be fine.
True, but only in the case they innovated more with Sackboy. It really never changed and was always "the same game" since the first title.
It was great, absolutely great, but Astro Bot smashed so hard that it will require too much effort to even compete with it.
With that in mind, why would they ever invest in 2 games with the same genre, that cater to pretty much the same target audience?
I think it is safe to assume that Sony planned to Sack Little Big Planet (pun intended) in favor of Astro, since they felt it was a much better mascot for them.
To be honest, I think Astro Bot has a little more emotional value than Sackboy. Astro has this charm that I just can’t find in Sackboy or any other character like those two. Is that just me?
I’m okay with Astro being the new replacement, so you’re not alone on that.
@@GlitchOnePlus It's just you.
Media Molecule isn't needed though. Sony could put another developer on the series. It's how we ended up with LBP3 and Sackboy: A Big Adventure.
I remember seeing content of Little.Big Planet at such a young age. I really wished theyd return.
The amount of time I spent creating stuff on there as a kid... I'd love a big PS5 return for the series
I feel extremely validated having purchased Sackboy on launch day. It has given me and my boys 100+ hours of fun. I even beat that damned Ripsnorter trial for the Platinum too. If Astro Bot is a huge success, I can see Sony pouring more money into games like these that people actually want and enjoy.
Astro Bot reminds me a bit of Sackboy from the future.
In terms of Nintendo, I really don't think they need to worry about anything; they're always been creative when it came to Mario mainline titles, and even Mario Wonder was a breath of fresh air in it's 2D scape. Hell, I'd say Nintendo's been the only one out of the big three to be putting out bangers with their first party IPs(Xenoblade, Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Metroid, Pikmin, Pokemon, Splatoon etc), as well as their good line up of 3rd party support; having the Switch stand strong for the 7 years it's been out.
Astro Bot truly does show gamers DO still want this fun little romps of charming games, especially if they're fun and creative. As well as Nintendo's Mario Maker proved there is a market for gamers who DO want to create their own little games, or levels, and Streamers who'd LOVE to play those levels too; free marketing right there. I like the idea of giving Little Big Planet to Team Asobi, in order to bring some new life into it; and maybe be a great tool for creatives, to make 3D game levels, like Mario Maker is great for 2D game levels. In terms of monetization, all the need to do allow players to either unlock cosmetics/costumes to be used in game with in-game currency, or just outright buy with for cheap, or maybe unlock some more creative skins for the levels: Uncharted style or Ratchet and Clank style for example. There's a lot they could do with something like this, and could be easy money too.
as much as i LOVE astro bot, it shouldnt be a replacement for LBP and sackboy, they should have success together on playstation
I mean i never played LBP i play astro bot games
Bro sony is tripping LBP is a wonderful game i don't know why they don't push for lbp4 :(
because of greed and change of direction to realism. they won't spend any money on any toony characters like crash and spyro. microsoft won't do anything to the iconic PS Mascot heroes.
Not really Sony just no developer interested in making a new game sadly media molecule has moved on from LBP and I think the new devs too just not as interested in the franchise
We don’t know what media molecule doing, and considering the last time Sony had a third part dev make a LBP game it ended up being the mess that is 3. Sony mentality is that if mm isn’t making it that it won’t be made.
I honestly don't mind. Asobi studio used to be Japan studio responsible for parappa the rapper, loco roco, shadow of the colossus, ape escape and now astro bot. They earned their place as the mascot of playstation.
Its the fact sackboy (a huge MMascot) didn’t get his own level…
like loco roco bro 😭😭😭
What would they have done? Then again they made a level completely for Nathan drake (didn’t deserve it imo)
Loco Roco was so fun though 😂. I wish they did more unique stuff with those levels like Wipeout and Parappa. I didn’t need GoW, Horizon and Uncharted, one of them would have been fine.
@@jaybee4288to be fair GoW is a huge franchise with PlayStation but horizon yeah idk why they did that
Fr it would've made sense for sackboy to have his own planet/level
then probably is not that huge
6:30 you forget that Little Big Planet since the original 2008 has had like a billion paid dlcs. They could just make another Little Big Planet as normal but not outsource or rush it. Just do paid dlc costumes like normal that they have done since the PS3. Amazing video though, LBP is my favorite game off all time, thank you for helping keep it alive.
Little Big Planet was the reason I got a PS3 back in the day, loved the games, I platinumed them all and had so many great memories with them, would love a new Little Big Planet game again, not a Sackboy Big adventure game
You make such a good point at the start - the shift from beautiful, colourful mascots to 'guy with brown hair and stubble who never smiles' is so depressing and a big part of why I mostly look to indie games. I REALLY hope Astro Bot helps them course correct away from that mold, and the entire 'sandbox, jack-of-all-trades' style of game they've been giving us for years now.
Never fogot Little Big Planet. I even have that turquoise PSP with the pouch. It was awesome !
Also, the thumbnail and the title of this video are so clever and creative.
"Hold on... say that again" ahh video title
Yeah😔😔😔😔 I always claimed sackboy as playstations mascot and he will forever be that in my heart
Yeah leave room for the memorable and lovable mascots we love growing up, the gaming industry need them more than ever.
I’m gonna be real, I like sack boy. But his games have very little beyond a surface level in common with Astro, and I don’t think ripping Astro’s developers away from their new baby to work on Little Big Planet is fair or even really a good idea? Like imagine the little big planet devs got told after their first game “great job! Now go make a new crash game.” Like wanting sack boy back is fine but this line of thinking is WHY we don’t get big new fun projects like Astro all that often anymore.
Gosh the A little big planet is memories I miss it..❤
👀 LBP4 mentioned?
Vro is everywhere
I remember buying the first LBP on day one for the PS3, and was completely enamored. I loved the whole series, and it's always been my number one to see a new game, even after everything I've played on the PS5 & PC.
Little Big Planet 1 and 2 are my favorite games of all time. I would be soooo happy if they released LBP4 or a LBP1-2 up-ressed port on PC/PS5.
I’ve always thought this was the future for LPB. Release it as a stand alone creation tool staring Sackboy. The level building tools were soooo accessible yet you could get deep if you wanted.
You hit the nail on the head. We can have big AAA games and smaller scale games. At the end of the day like you and many others, I just want variety. I love Ghost of Tsushima and it’s quickly become my top PS franchise. But I absolutely want Sly Cooper standing next to Jin Sakai
even after playing astro. I just love litle big planet sackboy needs to come back
They sacked, our boy. What a tragedy.
Imagine
Astrobot and Sackboy Save the Universe
I just hope Astro Bot’s success lets Sony or other game devs invest more into platformers. Its a genre that I think should always be apart of gaming no matter how great modern hardware has gotten
LBP 1 and 2 we're awesome! I made some pinball level on LBP2 and it got pretty popular for a while. I got mostly good reviews on it. I became obsessed with tweaking and modifying that level for a year. Playing Astrobot reminded me more of Sackboy's Big Adventure which I don't feel is getting the love it deserves. It plays almost identical to Astrobot
LBP 4 should have every Story level from 1,2 and 3..... along with all the community levels from all three games.
MM doesn't have to try and "reinvent the wheel" with LBP4. Just stick to what made LBP2 so amazing, and improve on that a little bit..... it doesn't have to be a lot.
Sony: Hmm Brown boy with Black eyes. Or White boy with Blue eyes. Hmmm gonna go with the white one🤔
As soon as my little nephew finished Astro Bot, he asked me to fire up LBP/Sackboy. Such potentials for both of those games. Everyone in the family plays them (Wifey, myself niece and nephew who are basically our kids..)
I’ve been playing Sackboy: A Big Adventure for past year and is still so damn good. Incredibly hard at times.. just all around holds its own super well vs today’s games. Will always love lbp tho so amazing esp in its day
I think Sack Boy never screamed PlayStation for me,but I think we could get more from the franchise to renember people about his existence
LittleBigPlanet was my whole childhood, when I heard the servers shut down for good I was super bummed out, Sackboy was and always will be PlayStation’s best mascot
Problem with Little Big Planet was Media Molecule abandoned it
Definitely need a new Little Big Planet. Astro Bot is getting all the love but you can spread it out a little bit. Even Nintendo doesn't just make Mario platformers. They also made a Kirby platformer a couple years ago.
I will always lie myself and say that astroboy is just future sackboy, it's the same character after thousands of years
The original team behind LBP at Mm all left. That studio is dead.
Me, my brother, and my sister would normally play Little Big Planet and I would say it's an amazing game. I miss it.
* sees title *
“say that again “
How about a true crossover with both games. That would be cool.
Little Big Planet is probably the best Game I've ever played, so much love went into it
I just can imagine how good would any Little Big Planet be with Dualsense. All of them would be GOTY contenders if I'm being honest...
Astro bot is the natural evolution of sackboy, they both served as tools to show the capabilities of their respective consoles (ps3 and 5), lbp was the precursor of what today is Dreams, Roblox, etc. Astrobot is here to remind us what games are really about. Not political platforms, not some movie ripoff or landscape simulator, games are about games.
btw the lbp 2 trailer still hits hard
I feel sorry my other friend who just jumped in PlayStation for the first time with the PS5, could not get to enjoy little Big planet 1 n 2. Bring us LBP 1 n 2 to PS5!
I would be content with that, refreshed and new servers 🤞
I'm on PC now but will never forget my friend Sackers
I don't know why everyone has been jumping on the LBP memory train with the release of Astro Bot... BUT I'M ALL HERE FOR IT, BABY!!
Sackboy always seems a bit gloomier to me compared to Astrobot. I find Astrobot friendlier and somehow more uplifting, whereas Sackboy has always come across as somewhat sluggish and outdated. Just the vibrant colors alone give me a liberating feeling, allowing me to leave real-world problems behind while playing. Of course, this is just my personal opinion.
Going through second playthrough of sackboy with my 8yr old boy. Was hoping astrobot was going to be co op.
This game will probably be little to Sony but it will be big to us
They should make one more Astro bot game and a sack boy game then the third Astro bot game would be Sack boy and Astro Bot team up
He has no characterization at all at least Mario is a character as robot He has no characterization at all at least Mario is a character Astro bot is nothing but a ad
I LITERALLY just played some Sackboy. He deserves a little respect.
Honestly my favorite Playstation mascot was Toro, im glad they added him and Kuro into the game
Dude got replaced by It Takes Two.
I loved this game so much when I was younger
my issue with dreams is that it wasn't a game engine. I loved it but as someone who works in game engines to make produces like games. there was very limited reason to learn it outside of my own enjoyment. if dreams had been an engine with a license where I could sell anything I could make it in, I would either use it as a tool to create assets for another engine or as the engine itself. it has so much protentional locked away inside a game that has no reason for real developers to play
THIS GUY KNOWS HOW TO COOK. GET THIS VID POPULAR SO SONY FRIGGIN SEES IT AND IT TALKS SOME SENSE INTO THEM.
He whas a big step for gaming🔥 a bigger step for sock creatures🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just can't imagine paying 700 dollars for a pro for the games out.
I'm late to the party and only recently found Sackboy and all his adventures, so I had no idea there used to be online play. I found him accidentally thru ps+ offering a Sackboy skin to use in Fall Guys. For this reason I did actually think that Sackboy IS the Playstation mascot even tho I've played Astro's Playroom.
(I say his, but you can play as a her, of course.) The Sackboy games are awesome. Sometimes tricky. Always fun.
That title actually goes hard 🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Man, Sackboy is such a good game.
Little Big Planet walked so Sackboy can run.
Little big planet is so nostalgic to me now. Wish they'd bring it back along with mod racers
I love both characters, If I had to choose 1 going forward (Thats a tough choice) I'd have to go with Astro bot at this point since Sackboy has pretty much already had his day in the sun. I loved Sackboy a big adventure but the little guy needs another LBP game and I dont see that happening anytime soon.
They could even take out the 4 and call it little big galaxy or something weird like that.
I enjoyed Sackboy: A Big Adventure, but LBP is the GOAT
LBP is a superb series of games, sack boys big adventure is fantastic and it excels where astrobot fails...... Multiplayer.
Sackboy should be the antagonist of the next Astro Bot game, jealous he's the one both figuratively and literally fading away into irrelevancy.
This is Sony, when have they ever continued a franchise, the only one I know is ratchet, grand turismo and god of war.
The title is genius
I actually really miss Little Big Planet. That game was my life as a kid, and now the servers are shut down and Sony has neglected it. I'll never get to finish and publish all those random levels I was making...
Sackboy deserved better
Sackboy got sacked 😂
😭
I was so dad when I got on LBP3 and wasn’t able to go to community (I thought it was a WiFi problem until I saw a video on UA-cam)
Astro bot is the PS mascot since 2013. I think ppl should get used to it.
Astrobot is sackboy in a space suit.
Idea: for next astro bot game make sackboy an oswald type character like in epic mickey
They HAVE to be working on lbp4 behind the scenes surely. LBP is THE Playstation game
I do hope it gets put on pc too but at the same time the ps5 needs some damn exclusive games
8:12 let’s bring LocoRoco back while whe’re at it
Welp astro realy took the mascot role
Personally I grew up with sackboy I got to play the mainline games on the ps3 and 4 but have never played the most recent one. I would love for Mm to come back and give us another masterpiece that would cheer millions up. I would be happy if team asobi would do the game to.
In my opinion this is the best multiplayer game after Mario Cart (its super fun with others).. im kinda old now but 10 years ago i had a blast playing this with some frinds and Mary Jane was there too..
Great vid, completely forgot about this delightful period in my life
Put so many hours into LBP 2 do miss playing it and making levels 😢
I feel like all of us to prove to Sony that we want more games like this. We need to play the games more often to prove Sony that that’s the games that we want sure, there’s some good titles but when you think about it, it just doesn’t work out for some people. Because put it like this every single time when Team ASOBI appears in a video or mostly in a PlayStation trailer we’re all just excited why because they make games that ask people actually wanna play and doesn’t cost us to break our controllers now if we were to bring all the good games back then I feel like PlayStation will be in a better spot
They also forgot about rayman.....
That's Ubisoft's fault.
I'm just glad that LittleBigPlanets legacy hasn't been forgotten and is getting a spiritual successor called Restitched, where you can play as a customizable stuffed animal known as a stuffy.
But seriously, Sony's legacy deserves to get better treatment in regards to what they've been doing with it as of now. Screw Sony and their disregard for their classics! I hope Astro Bot gets a PC port, just so if the PS5 goes under, that game won't go down with the ship.
Let's face it MM isn't coming back they haven't touched lbp since the lbp2 days and I don't think they are willing to. Plus most of the creative geniuses behind lbp1&2 have left MM so I don't think it will feel the same. I know the majority of the community will jump on me for this but I want Sumo to be given a second chance. People forget that the reason lbp3 came out the way it did was bc of Sony rushing them to put out lbp3 on black friday. Sumo who hadn't made an lbp game of their own before had to learn the game's custom engine port it to ps4 and make a ps4 version of the game and a ps3 version at the same time ON TOP OF a deadline by Sony and keep in mind that ps4 was pretty new at the time and they also had to update the ps4 version to look better. There was just too many stuff to do with too little time. I think SABA while not being lbp showed that Sumo can make good games they just don't have to be rushed. And fine say that you dont like Sumo I think we should leave team Aosobi do their own thing and get someone else for lbp. Who? Tarsier studios who made lbp vita which some fans consider the best lbp game is I think a perect choice. They really nailed that eerie yet magical atmosphere and the game was polished and added some new things. I would love if they made lbp4 (and no saba is not an lbp game its very different)
Sackboy: a big adventure came out in 2020 and is a brilliant platformer with couch Co-Op and lots of end game support and mastery challenges. Not sure why everyone is acting like its a dead franchise. 4 years without a game entry is nothing compared to some things we see in the industry today.
Astro Bot would be the perfect LBP replacement if they came out with an Astro Bot level creator type of game. A 3D environment for people to make levels on.
Team Asobi would make a killing with this game.
I liked LBP quite a bit, but its main problem is that, fundamentally, it doesn't feel that great to play as Sackboy. The jump, move speed and other verbs feel clumsy and have a lower skill ceiling. That's why I didn't finish Sackboy: A Big Adventure.
I missed LittleBigPlanet Franchise so much because 1. Media Molecule left the Franchise in 2011/2012, 2. Sumo Digital Left the Franchise in Early 2024. 3. There is no LittleBigPlanet 4 & No LittleBigPlanet Remastered Trilogy of 1 & & 2 & Karting, I wish we would have gotten LittleBigPlanet 4 And LittleBigPlanet Remastered Trilogy of 1 & 2 & Karting. 4. LittleBigPlanet 3 Hasn't Been Fixed for Many Years Before It got Shutdown Permanently, LittleBigPlanet 3 Would have been Best If It Weren't Rushed for Holidays/Black Friday.
I have Sackboys big adventure on PS5, honestly its a really great game.
