First off, Astro Bot is incredible. It's probably my GOTY and also one of the best game I've ever played. It's rare that you can play a game that feels built personally for yourself, but this is one of those. The gameplay is great and it injects nostalgia directly into my veins. So, this list is by no means a complaint.
Several months ago, I made a list of Forgotten PlayStation Characters That Should Be Astro Botted. Of the 24 characters I picked, only 5 made it in. However, 2 other ones I picked ended up getting a different character from their franchise into Astro Bot, so I'm gonna count that as 7.
So, I'm making a new list of characters I'm sad that didn't make the cut. There's always the next adventure!
The list is restricted to games developed or published by Sony. I love that they put so many third-party characters in the game, but opening up the speculation to any game would result in a massive list.

I mean... c'mon.
Blasto is not a good game. I like Blasto. RIP Phil Hartman.
I can hear you saying, "Shut up, Marino. Not everything is about EverQuest." I get it, but hear me out. People loved the Champions of Norrath games on PS2. Even people who had no prior knowledge of EverQuest. EQ may not be owned by Sony anymore, but I feel like this could still happen.
Toshinden's Sofia was as much a mascot for the PlayStation launch as anyone else.
Someone get Limited Run on the phone or something!
The face of the early days of PlayStation 3. Also, Anna Torv is great.
Give that robot a silly run animation and a tazer.
God of War was not the first game to come from the Santa Monica studio. How could you forget this weird, futuristic racing game where sexy ladies strapped wheels to their hands and feet? Kinetica is wild.
Remember when the Gran Turismo dev made a mech game? No? You should fix that problem.
Just imagine an Escher planet in Astro Bot.
