Starfield is coming to PS5 this week?? Man I'm out of the loop.
Played recently: Horizon: Forbidden West
Finished: nothing
Added to backlog: nothing
We had family visiting all last week so I didn't get in much time with Horizon. Hope you all had a very happy Easter!

So I beat Astro's Playroom. The glazing of PlayStation products was excessive but it did show off the controller pretty well and the final boss not my cup of tea unfortunately. I am not big on the boss is invincible, deal with their nonsense until they let you hit them style. I also liked showing off the controller but not so much the motion controller bits. Astro Bot came with my PS5 so I am looking forward to that.
Not as much time as I wanted to play during this spring break. I am going back to work tomorrow until Friday when I am going to have to suffer through Super Mario Galaxy because that's what the 10:year old (who dismissed the first one instantly and has zero connection to Nintendo mind you) really wants to see it suddenly. At least it's really short apparently. It's just a movie right?

Can't answer the Mario question, but Astro Bot is more focused on the levels but with some Playstation product fun mixed in.

Sounds like Swol Ebert gives it two thumbs down.
