00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,719
It's the Internet. You're busy,
Let's do this. Welcome to the Game

2
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,399
Mesticides podcast. This is the podcast
where we decide everything about the world of

3
00:00:33,439 --> 00:00:36,759
games, so you never have to
think for yourself. I'm your host Jeff

4
00:00:36,799 --> 00:00:41,960
Grubb, and with me is official
speed runner Mike Minatti. In today's episode,

5
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:46,439
Saber Interactive has extracted itself from the
embrace. GTA six is the biggest

6
00:00:46,439 --> 00:00:50,359
game in human history and it will
bring world peace and Battlefront is borked.

7
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:55,119
But first, Mike, how are
you doing? Great? Great? I

8
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,799
play even more Mortal Combat Mythologies before
this and managed to get a time of

9
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,840
a about fifty one minutes. Now
we are sub one hour. If that

10
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,599
run gets approved, which I'll submit
after this show, that would be number

11
00:01:07,719 --> 00:01:11,959
seventh in the world. And there's
still plenty of room to improve. So

12
00:01:14,519 --> 00:01:19,599
yeah, I got that going for
me. I'm is it encouraging that you

13
00:01:19,599 --> 00:01:22,120
have so much more room to improve
or does it like that You're like,

14
00:01:22,519 --> 00:01:23,879
are you at a point We're like, Oh, I gotta play more of

15
00:01:23,879 --> 00:01:26,480
this game because I'm kind of committed
to it. Yeah, the game's fun

16
00:01:26,519 --> 00:01:30,799
to speed run. Yeah, you
know what a lot of people come to

17
00:01:30,799 --> 00:01:34,079
those streets. So it's fun to
have so many people there, like,

18
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,920
look at that number. I bet
maybe maybe my next partner requests will be

19
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:44,799
accepted this time. Now you seem
to have the market cornered on Mortal Kombat

20
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:48,840
mythology sub zero. I sure do. It's a good little niche carved out

21
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,280
there. It has been fun to
speed run, especially right now because there

22
00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:56,680
are so many big rooms for improvement
we're narrowing in. It's gonna have to

23
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,799
come down to you like grinding and
like small optimizations depending on like how far

24
00:02:00,959 --> 00:02:05,400
I want to go. I think
top three is realistically where I want to

25
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,199
take it. I don't really want
to get number one, for one thing,

26
00:02:07,319 --> 00:02:10,280
Like Scott, who is number one, is the one who like taught

27
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,719
me everything, So it's not like
I don't want to like them and like

28
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,840
take this record, which I can't
do anyway, so we'll probably leave that

29
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,680
alone, right It would be that
would be like real long term commitment to

30
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,840
get a lot of those specific tricks
correct, and yeah that's the start play

31
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,919
other games. Yeah exactly, Yeah, like that, it's just not really

32
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,400
realistically in the cards unless you became
a full time speed runner, which you

33
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,039
know you know a couple of layoffs
that might happen. Who knows right,

34
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,159
Yeah, exactly, I'll tell you
what if that happens. I'll be tuning

35
00:02:40,199 --> 00:02:43,360
into every single one of those streams
because I think you could do it.

36
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,039
But as is, who got a
lot happening? You can get more from

51
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,199
All right, big topics of the
week, let's just go ahead and

52
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:42,879
get Saber out of the way real
quick. Saber bought themselves out from Embracer,

53
00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:47,120
and it's part of that wider story
of these companies are either closing down

54
00:03:47,479 --> 00:03:51,360
or they're figuring out other ways to
go out from underneath these big companies that

55
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,639
have huge debts, and Saber is
a kind of pretty massive publisher on its

56
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,000
own. Underneath Embracer with several studios. They were able to take many of

57
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,280
those studios with them as long,
along with many of the games and the

58
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,800
projects they were working on, for
about two hundred and fifty two hundred and

59
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,879
seventy five million dollars in that range. I'm struggling to remember exactly what the

60
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,439
number was, but it was not
ninety five hundred million dollars two hundred and

61
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,519
forty seven million, yes, yep, yes, thank you. So that's

62
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:25,639
not the five hundred million that Embracer
bought the studios for in the first place,

63
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,800
but Embracer is keeping some of the
studios. They are also continuing to

64
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,040
have hands in some of the projects
that Saber will work on now independently.

65
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:41,600
This is the result of what seems
like a couple of weeks of Saber trying

66
00:04:41,639 --> 00:04:44,959
to get the investments so they could
buy themselves out. We heard about the

67
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,720
reporting. Now it's all confirmed,
and I just wonder what's your sort of

68
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:54,160
position now on how you're feeling about
for one, Embracer and then two,

69
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:59,800
how a publisher like Saber, a
publisher slash developer like Saber can thrive or

70
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,519
vibe in the industry on its own. Now, I mean, I feel,

71
00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:04,959
I don't know, feel good about
Embracer. I have no idea what

72
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:11,000
the endgame there is. But asides
from like selling off more studios just destroying

73
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,480
more studios, there's no way that
this ends Like a few years like,

74
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,519
well, Embracer did stabilize and rebound
and like no, right, no,

75
00:05:18,959 --> 00:05:23,480
very unlikely. This was kind of
like you said, this was a giant

76
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:29,360
arm of Embracer, everything that fell
under that Saber Interactive umbrella, right,

77
00:05:29,759 --> 00:05:31,879
that was a huge umbro for them, and now that's just gone. So

78
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,800
yeah, it's just another sign of
just wherever that's going with Embracer, that's

79
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:43,959
going nowhere good Saber. You know, they're their future could be fine.

80
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,319
It's they're gonna have the same troubles
that every game studio is gonna have right

81
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,120
now, right, it's definitely better
to not be under Embracer, So that's

82
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,120
going to help them. And they
have a lot of talented studios that are

83
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,480
following them. Still a few are
staying at Embracer, I know, but

84
00:05:58,519 --> 00:06:00,439
it seems like they got a lot
of big ones. You get the sense

85
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,360
though, that a Saber on its
own if it does something like puts out

86
00:06:04,399 --> 00:06:09,519
Space Marine two, which I think
pretty sure Embracer's still involved with that to

87
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,759
a certain extent. But regardless,
I think if they play out a game

88
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,079
like that and it does very well, I get the sense that that's going

89
00:06:15,079 --> 00:06:18,560
to benefit Saber in a way that
it just would not help Embracer situation at

90
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,920
all. So maybe that's the good
sign here is if Saber puts out good

91
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:26,040
games, they are in a situation
where, well, that pays the bills,

92
00:06:26,079 --> 00:06:29,839
that enables us to green light other
projects and keep this whole thing going,

93
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:34,759
and they should have multiple projects that
have the potential to do that obviously,

94
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,519
not just Space Marine two. Recently
they did put out Expeditions, a

95
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,480
modor Runner game seems to be doing
pretty okay. And then they do have

96
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,319
like somewhere around ten other studios.
They had more, but like I said,

97
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,199
many of them are staying with Embracer. They have around ten, and

98
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,759
they're going to be churning out games
stell because that's what they do. They

99
00:06:53,879 --> 00:06:57,759
just work on games constantly. And
they're kind of in that double A space

100
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:03,720
that seems to be maybe more comfortable
now than the exponentially more expensive and unsustainable

101
00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:08,240
Triple A area. Right, So
yeah, I think they might be in

102
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:13,079
a better position than some I still, so what's what's going off koetor Jeff,

103
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Like, is that really going to
be a thing still? I mean,

104
00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:20,759
I'll just repeat what I've always heard
is that Sony seems very uninterested in

105
00:07:20,839 --> 00:07:25,240
anything to do with that anymore.
And so that game that we saw that

106
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:29,120
was announced at the Sony showcase or
State of Play, I can't remember exactly

107
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,160
what it was, but it was
at a Sony event and it was here

108
00:07:31,279 --> 00:07:35,360
is Aspire making Knights of the Old
Republic remake. Well that's already moved to

109
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:41,920
Saber from Aspire, So that's one
thing. But internally at Sony, they

110
00:07:41,959 --> 00:07:44,680
are not looking at that project as
something that's ever going to have become to

111
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,279
fruition for them, I think,
And that's what I heard, and that's

112
00:07:47,279 --> 00:07:50,639
why I said that that game was
done. It's done as it was announced.

113
00:07:51,399 --> 00:07:55,439
Now Saber has continued to work on
it, though I heard that it

114
00:07:55,480 --> 00:08:00,000
will follow up pretty quickly from multiple
sources after that. And so, hey,

115
00:08:00,199 --> 00:08:03,879
what does that mean. I'm with
you know, Jason Tryer who keeps

116
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:05,839
saying like they're they're working on it, But does that mean it ever comes

117
00:08:05,839 --> 00:08:09,759
out? No idea, Absolutely,
no idea. And you know they they

118
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:13,319
did mention Lars Wingifers, who you
know, they are still going to be

119
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,519
evolved in Knights the Old Republic.
That's one of the things that's stole part

120
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:22,279
of this deal. They've said,
Hey, that game's going to need at

121
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,600
least more than a year. It's
going to need a lot of love and

122
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:26,399
attention. And it's like, well, uh, it's definitely gonna need more

123
00:08:26,399 --> 00:08:30,519
than a year. It's probably gonna
need several years if that thing ever comes

124
00:08:30,519 --> 00:08:33,960
out. In any way that resembles
how they announced it. It won't be

125
00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:37,120
until like twenty twenty seven. It's
just such a that's a big ask to

126
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:43,919
remake Code Tour without some big backing
like a Sony. It's something like,

127
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,919
you know, Saber Active has a
lot of talent and they have resources.

128
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,360
I wonder if they have the resources
to do the kind of remake of Code

129
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:58,440
Tour that I think most people are
expecting. Yeah, it is. It's

130
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,639
going to be a tall order.
It absolutely really something that's just like the

131
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,960
old game with some like slightly better
graphics. I'll be okay with that.

132
00:09:05,039 --> 00:09:07,639
Most people won't though most people would
not. Yeah, that's not what h

133
00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:13,279
That's not what anyone is asking for
when they are getting all excited in the

134
00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:16,879
way that they got excited after after
the initial announcement. It's also not what

135
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,360
they promised. What has been talked
about publicly is a full on remake from

136
00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:26,399
the from the ground up. We
have all kinds of potential changes, including

137
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,759
how the game functions at a fundamental
level, and so yeah, I think

138
00:09:30,799 --> 00:09:33,360
if they put out a game that
even just replaces all the assets with more

139
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:39,679
with newer, remade assets, even
that seems like it would be pretty short

140
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,279
of what people are expecting from that. We'll see, I'm I would I

141
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:48,679
would wager that that game probably doesn't
ever actually really come out, not in

142
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,039
the way that not in any way
that it's related to what they announced.

143
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,759
But we'll see. Could be wrong. GTA six is the biggest game,

144
00:09:58,039 --> 00:10:01,279
and it's going to save the industry, or at the very least, it

145
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,240
is potentially going to be the most
important game release of all time. That's

146
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:07,440
how Matt Piscatella is framing that,
and he does that. He couched that

147
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,240
in terms of what this year is
going to look like compared to last year

148
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:16,159
in the United States in terms of
spend on gaming. He gave a couple

149
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,639
of scenarios where he said, listen, the optimistic scenario here is the industry's

150
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,799
been down about two percent year over
year. The real like the more realistic

151
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,840
scenarios, and then the more pessimistic
scenarios can go all the way down to

152
00:10:30,039 --> 00:10:33,679
ten percent decrease in spending on gaming
this year if things go really sideways,

153
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,039
he said. He pointed out the
big reason for that is tough comparisons.

154
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:43,600
Last year had games like Zelda,
Tears of the Kingdom, and Harry Potter.

155
00:10:43,399 --> 00:10:48,600
The big Harry Potter game, and
these are Hogwarts legacy. They had

156
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,600
massive sales, and they were big
budget, big, big priced games,

157
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,000
seventy dollars games. The games that
have done so well so far this year,

158
00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:01,159
they have propped up the industry,
Powell World and held these games are

159
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,440
not sixty dollars, not seventy dollars, they are forty dollars. And so

160
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,960
already, like the big games that
are selling a ton are not being able

161
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,559
to replace what happened last year.
So the comparison is going to be tough

162
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:13,799
just on that side of things.
And then also we're looking at a second

163
00:11:13,799 --> 00:11:16,639
half of the year where we don't
really know much what's going to happen.

164
00:11:18,039 --> 00:11:20,039
And then there's the factors of the
switch to moving out of this year,

165
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:26,200
GTA five moving out of the fiscal
year, So there's these big gaps.

166
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:30,639
And then He's like a lot of
the industry is looking to GTA six as

167
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:37,080
like this bell Weather of can the
industry support massive games like that anymore?

168
00:11:37,399 --> 00:11:41,519
Are games of that scale going to
make sense after GTA six, Because I

169
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,919
think the assumption here is GTA six, if all things are equal, should

170
00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:50,120
be massive almost no matter what it's
going to be massive. But is it

171
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,080
massive in a way where everyone feels
great about it, or is it like

172
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,559
begrudgingly massive, where it's like,
well, it's GTA, We're going to

173
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:01,559
buy it. But this feels like
it's missing something because the budget's so massive

174
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,679
they weren't actually able to accomplish what
they set out to do, or GTA

175
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,879
Online is broken in some fundamental way. There's a lot of important factors that

176
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,759
go into releasing that game in a
state where it can justify all of the

177
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,360
hubbabaloo that's going to be around it, and so people are gonna be looking

178
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,240
at it. Hey, is does
that side of the industry the biggest of

179
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,559
the Triple A the Quada games?
Are they gonna make sense after that?

180
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,679
And I think a lot of companies
are gonna It's questionable, like is anyone

181
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,440
really gonna try to make a game
anywhere close to a GTA six or a

182
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,759
Red Dead Redemption two after GTA six. Yeah, A lot of it makes

183
00:12:35,799 --> 00:12:41,480
me uneasy, uh, Like maybe
GTA six is the biggest but supporting game

184
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,840
ever. Uh. It kind of
scares me that we have so many eggs

185
00:12:43,879 --> 00:12:46,960
in just that one basket, right, Yeah, I mean look, it's

186
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,879
almost certainly gonna be a big game. It's gonna probably be ridiculous in sorts

187
00:12:50,879 --> 00:12:54,879
of the success. But like,
what is something weird does happen? Like

188
00:12:54,480 --> 00:13:00,600
nobody's moving over to this version of
GTA Online or I don't know, maybe

189
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,279
all the people who boycotted Bud like
are freaked out that you play as a

190
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,320
woman, or are shocked to learn
that a game based in Miami has a

191
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,240
lot of you know, Latino people
in it. Like, something weird could

192
00:13:11,279 --> 00:13:13,799
happen. But even if it doesn't, this game does you know it's hu

193
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:18,759
Jenesus Giants success. It is like, okay, that's great for that game,

194
00:13:18,919 --> 00:13:22,120
and yes, like all that money
is technically money for the industry,

195
00:13:22,919 --> 00:13:26,360
But there's not going to be a
thing like that again until we wait another

196
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:31,320
eight years or whatever for red de
Redemption three. I mean, spoiler alert,

197
00:13:31,399 --> 00:13:33,559
you're Jeff. We're talking about the
best games of twenty eighteen and a

198
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:39,600
big here twenty eighteen sometime ago six
years ago, now that that's when Red

199
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,679
deb Redemption two came out. Have
games, normal games, even the top

200
00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:48,879
games, really caught up in terms
of scale and scope and fidelity to Red

201
00:13:48,879 --> 00:13:54,039
deb Redemption two used to be six
years was the same difference. They somehow

202
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,639
got more more expensive still, right, and we're not necessarily seeing that money

203
00:13:58,759 --> 00:14:03,679
on the screen in a way that
we used to. So, yeah,

204
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,759
this game is going to be very
expensive. It's going to be a big

205
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,639
hit, I just don't and it's
going to help video games for that quarter

206
00:14:09,759 --> 00:14:11,279
in that year, and then it's
going to continue to help Take two for

207
00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:13,679
a while because that game is probably
gonna sell very well for a very long

208
00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:18,600
time. Is it really going to
overall be a net positive for the industry

209
00:14:18,799 --> 00:14:24,240
in any kind of meaningful way past
that opening window. I don't know.

210
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,440
It's kind of scary. Yeah,
And I think it is going to be

211
00:14:28,639 --> 00:14:33,440
a marker of something. And I
think the likeliest thing that's the marker of

212
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,559
is this is the kind of the
end of that kind of game, or

213
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,960
at least that being the video game
right where it's where the whole industry revolves

214
00:14:43,039 --> 00:14:48,039
around only those kinds of games.
Obviously a huge proportion of the marketing and

215
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,360
hype and excitement will always revolve around
these massive games. They just have a

216
00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:56,840
gravity well all of their own.
But I think that we're going to come

217
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:01,759
out of years of fewer and fewer
games from companies like that, and like

218
00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:05,399
you pointed out, even when we
do get games from the biggest developers in

219
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,000
the world right now, they are
spending more money to kind of get the

220
00:15:09,039 --> 00:15:13,000
same amount of game that they always
had, so that they aren't able to

221
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,960
catch up to Red Dead Redemption two
because doing that would be even more expensive

222
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,039
and they're already spending more money.
They don't want to do that, excuse

223
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,759
me, So like they're in a
situation I had ARBs for dinner, So

224
00:15:22,759 --> 00:15:28,480
this is just gonna happen. You
blame this on RBS. I'm enjoying it,

225
00:15:28,519 --> 00:15:31,600
but it's, you know, not
the other way for lunch. Look

226
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,039
at us, we're beef and cheddar
boys. Where the beef and cheddar boys

227
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:37,519
everybody, And so I think it's
gonna we're gonna be in a situation where

228
00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:41,399
someone on Twitter like pointed this out
to me, and I'm like, this

229
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,639
is a really good point. It
does feel like the industry is kind of

230
00:15:43,679 --> 00:15:48,080
in that point where the film was
in the seventies where all of the massive,

231
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:54,480
big production movies from the huge movie
studios was like, that's all we

232
00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:58,120
had for a very long time,
and those just kept getting bigger and bigger

233
00:15:58,159 --> 00:16:02,879
and bigger until they once of them
starting to fail. Entire studios were collapsing,

234
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,600
and then they were replaced by independent
films in the seventies, stuff like

235
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:11,320
Easy Rider, and that took over
for a very long time. It feels

236
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,840
like we are in that moment for
gaming right now, and I think something

237
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,000
like GTA six, whether it works
for itself or not, it is going

238
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:22,600
to mark it's going to set such
a high bar that it's so impossible to

239
00:16:22,639 --> 00:16:26,559
reach for even the biggest companies that
compete with rock Star, that everyone looks

240
00:16:26,559 --> 00:16:30,399
around goes, that's impossible for us
what we were not even going to try,

241
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,440
And so I think everyone's going to
start looking for more independent and gorilla

242
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:38,639
ways to make games. We know
how how very expensive spider Min two was

243
00:16:38,679 --> 00:16:41,440
to make because of that leak,
and then also because of that leak,

244
00:16:41,639 --> 00:16:45,960
like an early demo version of it
came out and like this, like just

245
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,919
like pre build test thing had destructible
environments, and I saw a lot of

246
00:16:48,919 --> 00:16:52,480
people's response to that was like,
Wow, they rushed this game because they

247
00:16:52,519 --> 00:16:56,000
did. Finally it didn't have like
so even with the amount of money that

248
00:16:56,039 --> 00:17:00,960
takes to make a Spider Man two. You are doing as much as some

249
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:06,200
people think that you should anymore.
Gosh, it's just it's just yet.

250
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:12,200
I think it's definitely a reckoning.
We definitely can't keep doing this. Rock

251
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,079
rock Star is the one person in
a position that can. There's maybe a

252
00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:19,160
few others like Naughty Dog. Even
Naughty Dog in terms of the kind of

253
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,799
games they make, they are big
open world games. Necessarily, they're gonna

254
00:17:22,799 --> 00:17:26,839
be able to make very big,
expensive games that are the top of what

255
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:32,839
they're trying to do that other people
just can't really compete with. But yeah,

256
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,759
I think there is gonna finally be
by necessity people looking around saying,

257
00:17:37,839 --> 00:17:41,079
we gotta we gotta rein this in
a little bit. This arms race is

258
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:49,000
going nowhere except destruction and then Battlefront. You know, well we can talk

259
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,279
a little bit more a Battlefront and
what we've been playing, but Battlefront launch

260
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,920
today. It's Star Wars Battlefront Classic
Collection, I believe, is the name.

261
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,160
And people are frustrated because I think
one for the price, it's a

262
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,599
pretty expensive game for what is not
a remaster. It literally is a collection

263
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:11,519
of older titles, but you know, some quality of life stuff in there,

264
00:18:11,599 --> 00:18:14,240
and it works. It works online, so if you want to play

265
00:18:14,279 --> 00:18:18,160
these games online, it's pretty seamless
to do that if there were enough servers

266
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,920
and the game wasn't quite as buggy
for some people. Now I say that

267
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,640
when my experience was mostly pretty bug
free. We did have one instance,

268
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,480
though, I think Sean, your
game bugged out and we had to restart,

269
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,880
But it was like my game run
pretty ran pretty flawlessly, and we

270
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,720
played online. We had a bunch
of people in there. I think we

271
00:18:36,759 --> 00:18:38,279
had like around ten people of twelve, ten to twelve people in there at

272
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,240
times, and then the rest was
filled out with bots, and it just

273
00:18:41,319 --> 00:18:44,640
kind of it worked for me.
So I'm like, I'm not going to

274
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:45,680
be like, oh, well,
the other people saying that this is a

275
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,000
problem, that that's not true.
I'm sure it is. I just I'm

276
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,480
like, I didn't experience any of
it myself, so it must be a

277
00:18:52,519 --> 00:18:56,599
case by case basis. But I
also don't blame people who are like,

278
00:18:56,599 --> 00:18:59,279
this is not what I was expecting. I was expecting any more from this,

279
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:00,960
and so I getting out. But
there's been there's been quite a reaction

280
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,480
to this, so a little bit
more than I was expecting I think,

281
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,039
hey, look, Jeff, we
learned this the hard way. These gives

282
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:11,240
me a lot to a lot of
people, I think, look like I

283
00:19:11,279 --> 00:19:15,759
do think they missed a trick by
not maybe doing more here, like maybe

284
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:22,880
just they should have actually spent resources
really remastering that Battlefront two and making it

285
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:26,079
more modern in some pleasant ways,
but still being that game, you know,

286
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,839
like even when like you said,
it's not a remaster. So when

287
00:19:29,839 --> 00:19:33,400
you're joining games, it is like
you're joining an online game from two thousand

288
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:38,480
and three or whatever. You have
server lists and things like that, but

289
00:19:38,519 --> 00:19:41,960
I think, you know, and
again like there's you know, servers were

290
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:45,960
rough or there weren't enough of them
because maybe either they didn't anticipate the demand

291
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,680
or they knew that there would be
an initial rush of demand and they weren't

292
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,039
going to pay for all the servers
just for that when they knew it was

293
00:19:52,079 --> 00:19:56,200
going to die off so pretty quick. At some point, reprobably there were

294
00:19:56,519 --> 00:20:02,160
only three servers per platform, so
we had I understand, like there was

295
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:07,119
three servers, but three official Aspire
servers per platform, and there were like

296
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,480
twenty thousand people trying to play.
So it's like at any one time there

297
00:20:10,519 --> 00:20:14,759
was one hundred and ninety two inch
people playing the game now, But you

298
00:20:14,759 --> 00:20:17,720
could do peer to peer servers and
that worked great for us. So it's

299
00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:19,400
like, you could have a ton
more servers in there. I think,

300
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,119
actually these games used to work as
people would, you know, make servers

301
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,440
and you're joined them. But again, not what people expect these days though,

302
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,160
And yeah, probably should have been
more infrastructure there for them. And

303
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,480
that said, when we logged on
today, the first thing I saw was

304
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:37,160
a couple dozen servers from Aspire to
the point where there were several several with

305
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,079
three people in there, a handful
more with zero people in there. I

306
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:41,839
was like, oh, maybe we
should just hop into one of these,

307
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,240
But then we tested it. We
did peer to peer and that worked mostly

308
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,599
fine. Like I honestly didn't notice
any issues with that, and that worked

309
00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:53,039
better for our purposes. You could
go online and play this game and enjoy

310
00:20:53,079 --> 00:20:56,680
it if you want to enjoy it. Nothing is stopping you from doing that,

311
00:20:56,759 --> 00:21:00,400
except for if there are bugs that
I'm not accounting for that I did

312
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,599
not experience them myself. But as
far as my experience was, I had

313
00:21:03,599 --> 00:21:07,000
a pretty good time. And I
can see why people hold this game at

314
00:21:07,039 --> 00:21:11,480
such high regards, even though it's
like I definitely don't I still don't agree

315
00:21:11,519 --> 00:21:18,599
it's like the most important game of
all time. Everybody but nobody still that

316
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:23,079
weird, weird thing we got yet. Look, we had a lot of

317
00:21:23,079 --> 00:21:27,319
pushback for not including it as in
the Mount Rushmore of Star Wars games.

318
00:21:27,319 --> 00:21:30,559
That's where it's from. And I
played it. I really enjoyed it.

319
00:21:30,599 --> 00:21:33,240
I was having fun. You know, I love games of that era.

320
00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:37,279
But I still feel pretty comfortable with
that take. I don't know if I

321
00:21:37,279 --> 00:21:41,519
put it on the Mount Rushmore of
like PS two era Star Wars games still,

322
00:21:42,039 --> 00:21:45,480
but look, I totally get it, especially you know you were there

323
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,279
at that time. This is a
game that you could play a ton of,

324
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,279
right, It is sort of a
forever game in a lot of ways.

325
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,759
Back then, I totally understand why
this game meant a ton to a

326
00:21:56,759 --> 00:21:59,359
lot of people. It just was
anything that I devoted a whole lot of

327
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,119
time to myself back then. Yeah, and it's when I was talking to

328
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,920
Sean, we were setting the stuff
up. It was it does. The

329
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:10,000
way you all talk about this game
reminds me of how I feel about GoldenEye,

330
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,119
and I don't remember we do we
do a mount Rushmore first person shooters?

331
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,960
Did I put Golden Eye on there? Like I could see me maybe

332
00:22:17,079 --> 00:22:18,799
doing that, But even that's like
a stretch. I think we might have

333
00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:23,319
it. I think I think,
yeah, you did, and you didn't

334
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,440
put it on top of there?
Yeah, and I could probably. I

335
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,640
think it's kind of where I would
expect people should be with this game,

336
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,680
where it's like, uh no,
it's enough that I personally think maybe you

337
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,359
can make this mount Rushmore, But
when we really talk about it, I

338
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,160
could see why it doesn't. That's
it. I'm not trying to take any

339
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,440
of the fun away from anybody.
This. It was a very good time.

340
00:22:42,599 --> 00:22:45,799
It's a you know, in a
lot of ways, better than better

341
00:22:45,839 --> 00:22:48,960
than those Star Wars Battlefront games from
EA, and in other ways I would

342
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,440
sometimes be rather be playing the Star
Wars. Was surprising how much it's still

343
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,039
reminded me of those in a lot
of Yeah, it was much more similar

344
00:22:56,039 --> 00:22:57,279
than I was. Just a testament
to them. It is a testament to

345
00:22:57,319 --> 00:23:02,000
them, all right. That does
it for the big topics I wanted to

346
00:23:02,079 --> 00:23:06,720
talk about this week, We got
some super chats. Let's take a quick

347
00:23:06,759 --> 00:23:10,119
break. We get back Michael read
off those and we'll answer your questions and

348
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,680
all that right after this. It
sounds to me that you hate about front.

349
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:18,319
I don't know. And we're back, and that means it's time for

350
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,359
super chats. Mike Manaudi take it
away. Big Fresh thirty seven says,

351
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,799
you guys are play Extreme Warfare Revenge
dope. I have not. That's a

352
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,160
very generic sounding name, but maybe
it's fun. Do you ever played Extreme

353
00:23:30,279 --> 00:23:37,480
Warfare Revenge? I've not played Extreme
Warfare Revenge? What the is this game?

354
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:42,279
It's a real It's a professional wrestling
management text simulator that goes back to

355
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:47,480
nineteen ninety five. This is not
what I was expecting, but it does

356
00:23:47,599 --> 00:23:51,480
sound like a res wow game.
Okay, not what I was expecting.

357
00:23:51,519 --> 00:23:55,519
Okay, cool. We'll make a
stream and I'll control it, but I'll

358
00:23:55,519 --> 00:23:57,079
make Mike, I'm make and Dan
make all the decisions. It'll be funny

359
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,480
like that. The tenth Direk says
I had have my appendix removed. It

360
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,680
sucks. I do not recommend it. What games your recommend? While recovering

361
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,119
from surgery or illness? I hope
you are feeling better in a tender Sorry

362
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,079
you had to go through that.
I hope everything as well rough, sorry

363
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,480
your end. Hope, hope you
got a lot of ice creamated that when

364
00:24:15,519 --> 00:24:18,440
you're in the hospital, at least
when you're a kid, you have to

365
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,440
go to the hospital. They always
try to like soothe you by saying you're

366
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,119
gonna get a lot of ice cream, though, and I'm always like,

367
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:29,240
bitch, I can get ice cream
now? When you said that when you

368
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,039
were kid, or do you say
that now? I had a big potty

369
00:24:32,039 --> 00:24:34,440
mouth of this kid. No,
I was terrified to swear. I get

370
00:24:34,519 --> 00:24:40,119
yauta. What games you should play
to recover from surgery or illness? I

371
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,000
like Summer Center. Yeah, I
actually do like playing like the thing that

372
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:45,759
is like dealing with the thing I'm
dealing with. Like I watched a lot

373
00:24:45,759 --> 00:24:51,759
of like pandemic based movies during the
pandemic. I would I like playing one

374
00:24:52,039 --> 00:24:55,559
those one more turn games, so
Civilization, Bilatro, things like that,

375
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,279
things where it's like you can turn
off your brain and the game's going to

376
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:02,519
kind of drag you along and ca
you playing to fill up time. I'd

377
00:25:02,519 --> 00:25:07,160
play something that is both kind of
chill but time consuming. So Stardu Valley

378
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:11,000
would maybe be perfect for me.
It's a good one. Big First thirty

379
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,880
seven says, for the first time
in a decade, I went back to

380
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:18,200
Mass Effect three multiplayer unbelievable how it
holds up still getting full games without waiting.

381
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,799
Yes, criminal for not having a
current version going. Yeah, a

382
00:25:21,799 --> 00:25:26,799
lot of people still do hold a
torch for that multiplayer mode. So it

383
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,960
is a shame that we almost certainly
will not get something like that in the

384
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,440
next Mass Effect because you can't just
release a multiplayer mode, right, You'd

385
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,880
have to be like, well,
we'd have to support this forever. And

386
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,000
that was even a concern back then
a bit right like this was kind of

387
00:25:41,079 --> 00:25:47,319
at the beginning of these every game
having a live service component. But then

388
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,920
that's I don't know, do you
think there's a chance that Max Effect has

389
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,880
a successor to the Mass Effect three
Horde mode thing? There's a chance.

390
00:25:55,599 --> 00:26:00,160
When Legendary Edition was coming out the
collection, I remember people asking like,

391
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,880
will there be a new version of
the multiplayer? And when I asked about

392
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,559
it back then, they're like,
no, the the multiplayer in three is

393
00:26:07,599 --> 00:26:11,519
still going and they don't want to
sort of split that or shut one down

394
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:14,880
to replace it with the same thing. Basically, so it's like they're they're

395
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,599
just going to keep that going.
That same thing wouldn't necessarily apply with a

396
00:26:19,039 --> 00:26:22,680
new mass effect, so maybe they
would do it, but my guess is

397
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:26,640
probably not because it's a lot of
extra work, and you're right, these

398
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,559
days, how do you justify doing
that if you're not going to keep it

399
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:34,160
making money forever? Jason Fulton says, do you think we'll get Firebom Awakening

400
00:26:34,319 --> 00:26:37,759
or Zoda Link between World's remasters for
switch To? And do you think we'll

401
00:26:37,759 --> 00:26:42,599
get a new mainline Zoda game for
the fortieth anniversary March twenty twenty six?

402
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,599
Mainline by twenty twenty six seems unlikely. Maybe we'll get a collection or a

403
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:53,960
remaster something cute like that. But
I mean, just look how much time

404
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:59,839
it took to make excuse me,
Tiers of the Team of Matter Breath of

405
00:26:59,839 --> 00:27:02,319
the Wild, and that's you know, it was a sequel, the sequel

406
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,000
that we used a good amount of
assets and stuff, and that still took

407
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,480
like seven years, right, So
twenty twenty six is gonna be too soon

408
00:27:08,519 --> 00:27:11,680
for the next main line? Yeah, But I mean, I if it's

409
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,000
twenty twenty six, if something does
happen and there's something new, a new

410
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,000
Top Down two d Zelda from like
Grezo or something that's that's possible maybe,

411
00:27:21,039 --> 00:27:23,440
but like, yeah, even if
it's that team though, like the Top,

412
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,440
people still have to be involved,
supposed to be like a Numa producing

413
00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:30,799
or and like the guide directing,
right, that's how those games usually worked.

414
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:36,680
They're not gonna have gonna give total
creative control to Grezo to make their

415
00:27:36,839 --> 00:27:37,759
own main line. You're right,
but I mean I think they would give

416
00:27:37,799 --> 00:27:41,880
a lot of control over to them, and then they they would provide the

417
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:47,200
guiding producing hand to do something like
a follow up to a Link between Worlds

418
00:27:47,279 --> 00:27:51,359
or something like that should get Capcom
again. Uh, I am good,

419
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,160
quite you. I wouldn't be shocked
if we see Awakening and Link between Worlds

420
00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,759
get remasters or even remakes on twitch
to at some point. Especially Awakenings wlish

421
00:28:00,759 --> 00:28:07,079
people gosh, that's the fire freaks
like me. A lot of people do

422
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,599
love that game, especially and Linke. Buttran World is basically the same,

423
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,400
really they yes, they both those
games should be on switch or switch to.

424
00:28:14,519 --> 00:28:18,079
That would be great, but but
yeah, I don't know. I

425
00:28:18,079 --> 00:28:22,000
think I would settle for not a
whole new game but like the Oracles,

426
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,720
Oracle games getting remade, just like
Next Awakening. I would like that.

427
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,119
Doctor Ryan says, is that Mike
sub our sub zero min naughty? Thank

428
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,680
you? I do like that sub
hour sub zero? That's cute. Did

429
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,279
you beat it and listen an hour? Yeah? Beat it fifty one minutes?

430
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,200
Was that? Was that earlier tonight? Earlier today? Yeah? Well

431
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,039
done, Mike, thank you very
much. I am a hero. Sign

432
00:28:42,079 --> 00:28:45,119
Guy Bubsy says, I wanted to
be a hero. I want to be

433
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,480
the center of attention. I wanted
the glory. I wanted the fame.

434
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,599
I wanted the pretty girls to come
up and say Hi, I see that

435
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,680
you're good at Mortal Kombat mythologies.
Sub zero, thank you. Sign Guy

436
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:02,200
Bubsy. Coddy Bishop says, have
you ever read or seen Stephen King's Desperation?

437
00:29:02,839 --> 00:29:06,279
It stars Ron Pearlman and it's set
in a desert town where an ancient

438
00:29:06,279 --> 00:29:11,519
god has taken over people's bodies.
I have not seen that. I'll check

439
00:29:11,559 --> 00:29:18,319
it out when I like the I
like the bad Stephen King adaptations like Lengolers.

440
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,279
That's a fun one. Yeah,
you got wrong from in a really

441
00:29:22,359 --> 00:29:29,839
really bad makeup and that's just we
should we should watch that bad Dark Tower

442
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:33,720
movie together some time. I have
a heart. I have a hard time

443
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:40,240
getting over Stephen King's like weird relationship
with the Shiny movie. And look,

444
00:29:40,359 --> 00:29:41,240
I get it, like, you
know, he wrote the book, he's

445
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,440
allowed to be, not like to
be. But I'm a little shocked he

446
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,680
doesn't get it right. Who cares
how faithful it is to your book or

447
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,960
not? Clearly this is incredible and
he just doesn't care. I still have

448
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,519
never seen the Shining. Oh really, I mean I can't say ship.

449
00:29:55,519 --> 00:29:57,720
I didn't you know I was a
coward forever since I came out of my

450
00:29:57,759 --> 00:30:00,279
coward era. It's definitely one of
the the best movies I've ever seen.

451
00:30:00,319 --> 00:30:04,799
Though, Shining, it's great,
Ali miracle, says am I in the

452
00:30:04,799 --> 00:30:11,119
minority, thinking Stellar Blade looks like
midtown mid so oh, I see if

453
00:30:11,119 --> 00:30:15,759
it's gameplay on socials just coombers and
nut Job's praising it. Also busy Days

454
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,799
boys take any three you can.
Yeah, you know, as somebody who's

455
00:30:18,839 --> 00:30:22,839
like I want to play swar Blade, I don't care that a game was

456
00:30:22,839 --> 00:30:26,960
to be sexy, but it's getting
like, you know, if everything else

457
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,720
going on, it's being propped up
as like this is the game that isn't

458
00:30:30,799 --> 00:30:33,200
woke, and like this is a
smarter fraid to have sexy characters. And

459
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:37,759
now it's like, well, it's
like and it's like they clearly have brain

460
00:30:37,839 --> 00:30:41,240
damage because like finally someone put a
butt with jiggle in it, and it's

461
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,079
like most people are beating exactly past
Jeff. It's like, oh, you

462
00:30:45,119 --> 00:30:49,200
guys didn't play you know, near
automata, Like her butt is hanging out

463
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,480
that whole Exactly what are we talking
about with games? Like all the time,

464
00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:56,480
the entire cast that Overwatch, But
some of those Overwatch characters are gay,

465
00:30:56,559 --> 00:30:59,519
so they don't count Mike that they
don't woke. It doesn't matter that

466
00:30:59,559 --> 00:31:02,279
they're sex. They're gay, so
it's woke, right. I Mean,

467
00:31:02,319 --> 00:31:04,440
it's just the other thing is always
frustrating because it's just so obviously that's what

468
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:10,240
it is. There's too many gay
people and people of color and not us

469
00:31:10,319 --> 00:31:15,200
anime supermodels for them. These people
are freaking out and un ironically saying things

470
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,240
like the revolution is starting now while
posting a picture of cleavage from Stellar Blade.

471
00:31:19,319 --> 00:31:23,400
I swear to god, they're just
gonna like start openly having circle jerks

472
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:29,119
on acts or whatever and be like
like, this is us fighting like wokeness.

473
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:33,359
Well, they're fucking I don't like, it's just weird, Like go

474
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:38,599
watch pornography like a normal person.
Yeah, And no one is trying to

475
00:31:38,599 --> 00:31:44,640
take this away from you, a
Stellarlay. We all like this. She's

476
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,160
a cute character. No one's like, oh man, this is bad.

477
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,599
Honestly, no one's like that.
I pointed laugh at it, but I

478
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,880
got so mad at her that we
did Mortal Kombat nine and I was just

479
00:31:55,039 --> 00:31:59,559
pointing and laughing at the ridiculous tits
and cleavage in the game. Of course,

480
00:31:59,599 --> 00:32:01,200
everyone was like, what's the matter
with that? I like that.

481
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,240
I was like, yeah, cool, me too, Like how could like

482
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,039
I on it, Like, how
could no one like look at Dragon's crown

483
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:13,160
and not laugh at the absurd proportions
of those characters? And no one was

484
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,519
trying to take it away even when
they were criticizing it, no one was

485
00:32:15,559 --> 00:32:19,799
actually trying to take it away.
That's honestly, Mike. I can't handle

486
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:24,319
what's gonna happen with Resident Evil five. I'm gonna fucking insane because it's like

487
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:29,319
IGN's like, hey, this there's
you know some trouble troubling imagery here.

488
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,680
Every quote tweet is just like if
you think this is racist, you're the

489
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:36,200
real racist. Oh so killing poor
Spanish people, that's okay. I'm like

490
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,400
that made me feel weird too.
What are you talking about? We just

491
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,920
want to talk about it. It's
just what I like, have a conversation

492
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,079
and they just can't handle it.
It's gonna be a goddamn right there.

493
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,960
It's wrong because like I know,
you can't play defense with these people,

494
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,640
and like it just trying to be
crazy. And then you see fucking you

495
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:58,720
know elon like being like, yo, something's been weird about video games on

496
00:32:58,799 --> 00:33:01,400
it and it's like, wonder what
it is and the fact that fucking grumbs

497
00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:07,519
grumbs is the biggest piece of shit
loser, he sucks. Please, what

498
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:12,039
this is is what you got.
You can't fight anybody else on your side.

499
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:17,839
There must, by coincidence, be
somebody, some large numbers should dictate

500
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:22,880
that you can find someone who just
does. And the best part about that

501
00:33:22,119 --> 00:33:24,839
is when I was like, this
guy sucks. If you are buying what

502
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,400
he's saying, like you're a sucker. There are a lot of people who

503
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,079
are like fighting the real fight to
keep the sexiness in gaming and all this

504
00:33:31,279 --> 00:33:35,240
other bullshit. Who are like,
well it doesn't matter, Like they know

505
00:33:35,319 --> 00:33:38,319
he sucks too, They're like,
well, that doesn't invalidate our claim to

506
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,000
guess that's their favorite. Thing is
always like, well that doesn't matter,

507
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,960
because even is the same thing with
the first game or Gate. It was

508
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:51,200
the whole thesis of it that game
developers are having sex with game journalists to

509
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,039
get good reviews. That was wrong, and they said, well that doesn't

510
00:33:53,039 --> 00:33:58,880
matter because this and this and this, this whole original thesis the sweet baby

511
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:04,079
ink or whatever was like, well
they're they're ruining video games by turning characters

512
00:34:04,079 --> 00:34:08,280
into lesbian ugly woman who was like, well that wasn't true. It doesn't

513
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,159
matter. It doesn't matter, so
I don't know. And now that's about

514
00:34:12,199 --> 00:34:15,239
that. Well, actually they started
targeting this one guy. It's like,

515
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,199
honestly, they just felt attacked by
this thing. And then they like,

516
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,679
there's just one person from one company
was like, hey, do something here,

517
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,760
and then they all there's a lot
of losers, a lot of idiots

518
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,719
on the internet. I can't change
your mind. It is going to be

519
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,840
best to just ignore them. I
had to vent every once in a while.

520
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,039
You know what I did today?
It made me feel better, Jeff,

521
00:34:32,039 --> 00:34:36,000
because I was like, this stuff
was bothering me. I drove home.

522
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,119
There was a kid on my street
had a little like stand up by

523
00:34:38,119 --> 00:34:40,840
her driveway. I thought it was
lemonade. So after I parked, I

524
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:45,440
walked over there. She was selling
bracelets. It was so cute. I

525
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,159
bought up bracelet. I like it
was like two dollars, and I gave

526
00:34:47,199 --> 00:34:51,840
her five instead. She was so
thankful. I'm like, man, that's

527
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,519
doing little communities. It's so nice
to be bought back to a micro level

528
00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:01,079
like my street, where you could
actually make it difference and interact with people

529
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:06,480
in a real human way. I'm
like, oh, this is real life,

530
00:35:06,599 --> 00:35:13,119
not this bullshit social media nultural arts
destroying our brains. Yeah. We

531
00:35:13,519 --> 00:35:15,920
when we were in at Arby's tonight, we dined in because Steph was an

532
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,760
important meeting tonight, so where like
the kids couldn't be loud, so we'll

533
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,719
just go dine in at Arby's like
crazy people. And it was just us,

534
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,960
and so I was kind of let
the kids like go up and get

535
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,199
the food and stuff, and the
workers were just like, these are the

536
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,039
cutest kids, and it was so
nice just to like let them have this

537
00:35:31,119 --> 00:35:34,599
like fun interaction with these little kids. You could tell it was such a

538
00:35:34,599 --> 00:35:37,880
relief from their job. And I'm
like, oh, this is so nice

539
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:42,199
compared to the insanity that's happening online. And at the same time, people

540
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,800
are like seeing ig and be like, people are saying nice things about how

541
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,599
hell divers is it pay to win? And everyone's like, you fucking think

542
00:35:47,639 --> 00:35:51,960
hell Divers pay to win. I
am going to drop my pants and shit

543
00:35:52,039 --> 00:35:55,559
on the floor right now because I
can't handle this. Guys, bring it

544
00:35:55,599 --> 00:36:00,079
down. Take a deep breath.
What they said, I mean, if

545
00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:01,480
you said this, Cheff, And
I've seen our people say it's like,

546
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:05,880
look, people just get worked up
in election years. I guess we are.

547
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,599
Everyone's on edge for a million reasons. And that's going to be the

548
00:36:08,639 --> 00:36:14,920
biggest determining factor is that it's an
election year and everything is amped up and

549
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,800
we are gonna have to like get
through this together. Everybody. You know,

550
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,000
we're complaining, we're ranting. Uh, this audience, the giant bomb

551
00:36:22,039 --> 00:36:27,159
audite guys, fucking rule got so
mature, you so nice, Thank you

552
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,599
so much. Honestly, it's what
keeps me grounded in all this, so

553
00:36:29,679 --> 00:36:37,039
thank you all right, Socrtaise friend
Darryl says Battlefront Classic has me replaying PS

554
00:36:37,079 --> 00:36:40,079
two Xbox era Star Wars game.
Jedi Academy is still great, and these

555
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:44,760
Xbox back combats are fantastic. Yeah. I think Jeff and I say all

556
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,199
the time, it is the golden
era of Star Wars game I feel that

557
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:51,519
way. Yeah, even like the
stuff that's not great, like ob One

558
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:58,559
for Xbox, I'm kind of like, hell, yeah, let's go one

559
00:36:59,079 --> 00:37:02,719
Xbox. Yeah. I mean like
coming out of Phandom Menace for PlayStation one

560
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,320
and being like, yeah, just
kind of rules, and then having just

561
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:12,800
fifty different Star Wars games in that
Xbox PS two game Cuber era and all

562
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,159
like bespoke for each console. Yeah, that stuff rules. Yeah, absolutely

563
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:23,400
fantastic. H next one here is
a FRA Sorry it's from Tom Raptors,

564
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:29,000
says Jeff. Did you ever hear
anymore on the Xbox Shadow run rumor you

565
00:37:29,039 --> 00:37:31,599
talked about in November of twenty twenty
one. We're testing your memory here,

566
00:37:31,679 --> 00:37:36,679
Jeff. Yeah, I don't think
I ever heard much more basic. Basically,

567
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,559
what I remember at the time was
it's like they were interested in doing

568
00:37:39,559 --> 00:37:44,639
it. They were trying to round
up the rights to ensure they could do

569
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,719
it. I wonder if that kind
of got derailed at some point. I

570
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,719
never checked back in on him.
That seems likely, But at the same

571
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,480
time, it's like, yeah,
that was only twenty twenty one. Things

572
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:57,480
could quietly be boiling in the background
and still take another four years before we

573
00:37:57,519 --> 00:38:00,599
ever hear about it publicly. So
I don't know right now, but I'll

574
00:38:00,599 --> 00:38:02,800
look and see what I can find
out. Super harm it says I have

575
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:07,480
a twenty six year unbroken run of
Superman comics. Super Dan sixty four filled

576
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:12,039
me with both sadness and joy.
Man. That last episode of super Dan

577
00:38:12,199 --> 00:38:15,360
was I don't know if we've ever
had more fun or will beat you anyway?

578
00:38:15,679 --> 00:38:20,360
I was a great time. Holly
crap, was that funny? Super

579
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,199
Dan has been more than I ever
could have hoped for. It has been

580
00:38:23,599 --> 00:38:28,800
so much fun. Yep. And
it's a miserable game in a really fun

581
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,440
way. At least again for me
sitting on the sideline just throwing popcorn in

582
00:38:32,519 --> 00:38:37,480
my face and enjoying the shows.
It's almost validing du because when you do

583
00:38:37,559 --> 00:38:39,679
say bad game. Superman sixty four
is the one I always think of.

584
00:38:39,679 --> 00:38:43,559
And I was like, am I
being hard on this? Am my piece

585
00:38:43,599 --> 00:38:45,519
of shit? And I'm watching this
like, no, I'm glad that we

586
00:38:45,599 --> 00:38:50,760
have super MAEO sixty four, just
like being that game, like being like

587
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,280
Atlasson willing the goal of that burden
for all of us, just having its

588
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:59,199
entrails eaten over and over. It's
stole bad games from the gods, and

589
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,199
the gods have punished it forever.
That's that's Prometheus. But yes, yeah,

590
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,280
I was going. I didn't feel
like I had to say I'm going

591
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:13,880
to go with all right, you're
right right, Max says, this is

592
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,639
a good show. Some chat right, Sorry, don't make Mike mad,

593
00:39:19,039 --> 00:39:22,559
Mike game happy. Max says,
can anything beat Bilacho for a Game of

594
00:39:22,599 --> 00:39:24,519
the year? Is you know,
in all seriousness, do you think Bolo

595
00:39:24,559 --> 00:39:29,440
is your game of the year right
now? No? But it's up there.

596
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,119
I think it's like it could.
I could easily see at the end

597
00:39:32,119 --> 00:39:36,920
of the year that's gonna be pretty
lots solid in my number, in my

598
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,400
top three. But I think things
will move around it. Like I think

599
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:44,639
that's like a number two or a
number three, and then things move around.

600
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,239
I don't know, I think I
think for you, that's the kind

601
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,679
of game that gets like in the
top five, right, maybe not the

602
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,920
top in my top ten, right, Yes, I mean like as high

603
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,440
as your top five. It's not
exactly, you know, I have a

604
00:39:55,440 --> 00:40:00,440
little bit of that Jeff Backlar importance
problem. There's it'll be like how important

605
00:40:00,639 --> 00:40:05,920
is blot It could be a little
bit of a ship about that stuff.

606
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,000
But no, it's definitely going to
be a contender. It's fantastic. I

607
00:40:09,559 --> 00:40:15,280
still play it almost every day.
Oh, I got sass, a tiny

608
00:40:15,559 --> 00:40:19,599
cool little bil. I got to
the Balatro. I got this joker.

609
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,559
Yeah, I got this joker that
turned every face car into a golden car.

610
00:40:23,039 --> 00:40:29,199
And then I got another joker that
takes away any upgrade to the cars

611
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,800
and added to the multiplier. So
I got the multi car. Yeah,

612
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,880
and it will turn like all the
face car into like gold and then it

613
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,519
will suck it up and it will
give me like multiplier. And it was

614
00:40:37,559 --> 00:40:40,360
really cool. I was, yeah, I've heard that. I heard about

615
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,880
that bill from someone else, and
it's like, oh, that does sound

616
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:45,480
like that would be huge because by
the end you could have like a like

617
00:40:45,519 --> 00:40:49,719
an X twelve multiplayer or something like
that. Yes, I was fishing for

618
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,800
that other joker that makes every car
a face car, but I then I

619
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,000
never got it, so like,
oh, this is like an incomplete bill

620
00:40:55,440 --> 00:41:00,519
that I need to like experiment.
I did have fun today because I was

621
00:41:00,559 --> 00:41:05,840
playing one of the newer deck sign
locked where you get the double tag stuff

622
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,960
where it's like when you skip yeah, and when you skip an anti or

623
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,320
whatever, you get like a benefit. And I had all these built up

624
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,400
and the thing I got was next
the next joker is the negative jokers you

625
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:20,679
get on more jokers, So I
was able to just have like nine jokers

626
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,360
for the first time, just all
like so many jokers, just like I

627
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,920
didy't even really have a specific plan, but I just had so many jokers

628
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,679
that I want you can kind of
do whatever you want. Yeah, that

629
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,159
was fun, all right, Oh, grug says. So it's been debate

630
00:41:34,199 --> 00:41:37,760
in on who's weirder between Mike and
Dan. However, who is weirder between

631
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,599
the Jeff and Jan man. But
Dan's in chat so if you want to

632
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,559
argue that, right, Hi,
Dan, Me and Dan will hash it

633
00:41:45,559 --> 00:41:50,000
out some other time. But uh, it's interesting because Jan seems so normal

634
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,199
and then he'll just call, He'll
just say something about his life or something.

635
00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:55,559
I was like, why do you
think that me and Jane are weird

636
00:41:55,599 --> 00:42:00,960
and very similar ways? I do
think that. I think pairing you and

637
00:42:00,079 --> 00:42:09,400
Jan and me and Dan together is
correct. Yes, absolutely, it probably

638
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,440
is me, but I wouldn't be
surprised if it's like like you said,

639
00:42:13,559 --> 00:42:15,519
like Jan will ocasually break out something. If he broke out something that was

640
00:42:15,599 --> 00:42:19,800
just completely unhinged, that makes it
clear that he's weird, weirder than me,

641
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,320
I wouldn't be surprised. Uh.
Deachi says our GG studio should make

642
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,360
a seinefold game. Thanks, hey, that world for that would be great.

643
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,199
Someone should make a seine fold game. I'm sorry, I was thinking

644
00:42:31,199 --> 00:42:38,519
about Elaine's business casual outfits there are
Edgar Marino says I started playing through the

645
00:42:38,559 --> 00:42:42,960
Akuza series at the beginning of the
year, currently on five. Should I

646
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,400
play Trails or Ye's Next? Both
are currently on sale. See to me,

647
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:50,719
both of those are series that like, I don't know if I play

648
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,960
through them, Like, there are
so many Trails games and there are all

649
00:42:54,119 --> 00:42:58,039
very long. I mean, if
you if you want to devote that kind

650
00:42:58,039 --> 00:43:00,599
of time, and yeah, I'll
go for. That is interesting because that

651
00:43:00,679 --> 00:43:06,719
stretches back, like way back,
like you're talking about games like the original.

652
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,719
These games you don't really have compacts, you know, you just kind

653
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:15,679
of bump into people literally things fun. It kind of sounds good both foutcome

654
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:20,159
games that's not the same company Gore's
in a big foulcome ever, end up

655
00:43:20,159 --> 00:43:22,199
playing more of the Trails games.
Mike, just no, I just played

656
00:43:22,199 --> 00:43:25,599
Trails in Sky wanted to and love
them, and I got zero and I

657
00:43:25,639 --> 00:43:29,360
haven't, like just never got time
to get around to it. I still

658
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,800
want to from for why, I've
heard from everyone who's played them, like,

659
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,760
eventually, Trails does pay off if
you have played all of them right

660
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:42,800
till a point that you pretty much
everyone who plays them more like, yeah,

661
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,760
we know how ridiculous this is,
but you do need to start from

662
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:50,760
the beginning. Whereas EASA's kind of
final Fantasy ish where even though there's through

663
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,880
line with at least eight all the
main character, a lot of people say

664
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,039
you can't just jump at eight.
So it depends on how much of a

665
00:43:55,039 --> 00:43:58,480
commitment you want. I think that's
exactly right, Like, yeah, if

666
00:43:58,519 --> 00:44:00,960
you want to play through when do
Trail do you want to play some Ye's

667
00:44:00,039 --> 00:44:04,039
games, like play Ye's eight or
whatever else, and you know you can

668
00:44:04,039 --> 00:44:07,000
have fun. You can go back
to more if you want to. Uh.

669
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,800
Epic Open World says Folks freak out
Triple A games cost too much to

670
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:14,119
make. They say they need to
be cheaper. Game Pressed sensays Rise of

671
00:44:14,159 --> 00:44:19,119
Ronin looks bad and cheap. Pick
a lane. I haven't. I haven't

672
00:44:19,119 --> 00:44:21,880
actually played much of Rise of Ronan. I don't know what the I haven't

673
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,039
really been looking into it too much. Like what has the reception been like

674
00:44:24,079 --> 00:44:27,960
for rez of ron and Jeff It's, you know, it's it's a little

675
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:32,119
bit all over the board. It's
generally for the preview period, which is

676
00:44:32,119 --> 00:44:36,480
the first two hours, has been
mostly positive, as Jan pointed out.

677
00:44:36,559 --> 00:44:38,400
And Jan was like, that's weird
because the first two hours for me,

678
00:44:38,599 --> 00:44:42,480
I didn't like so much. And
for me, I was like, I'm

679
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,599
I'm not sure if I could put
my finger on the pulse of this game

680
00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:50,840
in the first two hours. So
I think it's people being cautious until they

681
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:54,159
can get to the review period.
Jacob Bench says I finally rolled credits on

682
00:44:54,199 --> 00:44:59,000
fil basically seven Rebirth last night at
ninety hours and came to the conclusion that

683
00:44:59,039 --> 00:45:01,199
it is my favorite game of all
time. When was the last game that

684
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:07,280
you knew was now your favorites or
in your top five? Hm, I

685
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,760
can pull up my list. I
know that Resident Evil for Remake is the

686
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:15,880
latest game to get into my top
ten. I think Mario Odyssey was the

687
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:17,880
last game to get into the top
five. Where I played, I was

688
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:22,599
like, this is just absolutely one
of the best games ever, favorite Mario

689
00:45:22,679 --> 00:45:25,519
game, favorite, one of my
favorite games. So yeah, I think

690
00:45:25,679 --> 00:45:30,639
I think Odyssey is probably the best
for what you're asking about. Yeah,

691
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,719
the clearest one for me is Breath
of the Wild, where I played that

692
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:37,800
game for review and it was so
good that I cried and I was like,

693
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:43,440
this is the best game I've ever
played. And after that, there's

694
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,440
been a lot that have been like
odysty Loudeste was quickly after that, Odisty

695
00:45:46,559 --> 00:45:49,679
was like, oh, this is
one of my favorite games of all time

696
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,000
too. But it was just so
clear to me how important Breath of the

697
00:45:52,039 --> 00:45:57,039
Wild was. Immediately that that's the
one that stands out the most. I

698
00:45:57,039 --> 00:45:59,320
mean, I guess I have Oughtyssey
at three. My number two is File

699
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,880
Fantasy fourteen, which you know I
played through, so that not too long

700
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,320
ago. No, it's just like, yeah, especially it's after you play

701
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,079
Shadow Bringers. I think for most
people like, yeah, that's just one

702
00:46:08,119 --> 00:46:13,239
of my favorite games ever and it
always will be. Now. Next one

703
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,760
is Willow Davis. Where where were
you when you realize gaming was a mistake?

704
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:22,719
That's probably at Arby's. That's where
I was tonight when I realized.

705
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,159
So, yes, Arby's is where
that revelation is most likely to happen.

706
00:46:27,199 --> 00:46:30,960
And put video here says thanks for
calling us a mature community. Anyways,

707
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,880
where did we land on the Pasuri
debate? I was, I was vindicated

708
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:43,039
by Sean offline. I'll have you
know that I use the term. The

709
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:47,639
scroll isn't going up and down,
so it's not like, really it's good

710
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:52,199
enough of it. It's like when
you have a mouse hiding down there and

711
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,599
you know, and they pull that
out. It's a gag. I don't

712
00:46:54,599 --> 00:47:04,960
see Spanish, so I know we're
s that's a Columbo of us. That's

713
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,440
a Columbro's joke for you. No, the entire Wolf says, with the

714
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:13,800
popularity of Nintendo in Japan is Dragon
Quest twelve guaranteed to come out day one

715
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,559
on switch slash switch to. Do
we see it this year? I'd be

716
00:47:16,679 --> 00:47:21,320
shocked if they're not going to try
to make that work on switch to.

717
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,039
There's still a lot of questions about
Dragon Quest twelve. They announced it by

718
00:47:24,079 --> 00:47:30,079
just showing a logo. They had
some vague language about like switching things up,

719
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,920
which kind of made people nervous and
it maybe being darker. But we

720
00:47:35,039 --> 00:47:37,880
really don't know anything about that game. But still you would think they would

721
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:43,079
want that on switch to. Drag
Quest eleven got on switch eventually, but

722
00:47:43,119 --> 00:47:45,880
not right away. But even still, there was a DS version of it.

723
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:47,679
There was like a D make right. I think that's correct. Oh

724
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:52,119
yeah, Cody, there was.
There wasn't antendo version of that right away,

725
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,440
So yeah, I thinking about it. I bet they're going to really

726
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:58,679
try hard to make sure there's a
switch to version at launch. Yeah,

727
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,000
I think. I don't know if
it's guaranteed, but I think that's right

728
00:48:01,079 --> 00:48:04,840
that. I mean, if there's
only one or the other, it is

729
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:07,880
a switch one version, right like
that, Like if they only have one

730
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,480
version of this game, it would
be switch one and then maybe you get

731
00:48:10,559 --> 00:48:13,320
we get a switch to or do
you think it's the other way around.

732
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,639
I don't know, because, like
you know, it's not like before we're

733
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,519
I don't know how much this game
is going to scale compared to eleven because

734
00:48:20,519 --> 00:48:22,800
a lot of it's already you know, like running thirty frames per second.

735
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,000
It's kind of pushing the switch in
some ways. I just don't know how

736
00:48:25,039 --> 00:48:30,280
we can scale down a Dragon Quest
twelve that's going to come out in like

737
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:35,679
twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six
to run on twenty seventeen portable hardware.

738
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,760
It maybe maybe I would pull my
money on switch to But we know,

739
00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:43,000
on these these kind of debates,
Jeff, I usually lead towards these things

740
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,639
happening with switch to right, and
I go with Switch one. Yeah,

741
00:48:45,639 --> 00:48:51,559
I think the likeliest scenario is both
platforms at the same time. I think

742
00:48:52,159 --> 00:48:53,480
I also just think that this game's
further out than maybe you do. Like

743
00:48:53,519 --> 00:48:57,639
again, I think maybe twenty twenty
six. I don't think it's Switch one

744
00:48:57,679 --> 00:49:00,280
in twenty twenty six. That's fair. Ali Miracle says, I said,

745
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:04,920
take it easy, geez, you
the best folks. They can't we got

746
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:12,840
shoot hot over. The Christian says
he's nuts. That is a funny name

747
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:17,000
for a big why why? Yeah, people, we do. We should

748
00:49:17,039 --> 00:49:21,920
probably clarify that because there's gonna be
a significant portion of the audience every time

749
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,840
that are like, what the fuck
are these people saying? Why? Why?

750
00:49:25,119 --> 00:49:28,960
S Yes, I don't know.
I forget why. I think because

751
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,880
yigre so the world trees involved,
and they just shorten it to why.

752
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:37,199
I forget why. It's called that. That's my best guess, always showing

753
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,800
up and ship. Yeah, I'm
gonna pronounce the why. Yeah, I

754
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,039
just I just feel better pronouncing the
why. Look as if you get it,

755
00:49:45,039 --> 00:49:47,880
guys, it's fine. Only two
letters, and one of them is

756
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:52,800
why. I want to pronounce the
on the capital one too. Why is

757
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:57,239
the apostrophe there? That's what I
want to know, It's not why.

758
00:49:58,199 --> 00:50:01,960
Yeah, that's messed up. Phantom
twenty three says any excitement for the Triple

759
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:07,119
I initiative in two weeks, it's
something from the studios behind Slay the Spire,

760
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,480
v Rising, Vampire Survivors and more. I don't know too much about

761
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:13,199
this, Jeff. Yeah, this
is the first I'm hearing about it.

762
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:17,079
But that sounds exciting. Sure,
I'll pay attention to that. See buckets

763
00:50:17,119 --> 00:50:21,400
twenty three, says Jess beat Mega
Man two. Always played that during the

764
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,440
Wii, but didn't beat it until
now. Might try three at some point,

765
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:30,480
Hey, congratulations, Magnan two rules
played Mega Man three. It's very

766
00:50:30,519 --> 00:50:34,960
similar but better. That's Mike's favorite
game. It's a fair game of all

767
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,679
time. I spent I spent a
lot of time thinking about how pretty much

768
00:50:38,679 --> 00:50:42,639
everybody like agreed that Mega Man three
was one of the best Megama games,

769
00:50:42,679 --> 00:50:46,840
even better than two, until like
a quote from what's his face? The

770
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:51,239
Mighty number nine guy came out where
he's like, yeah, Megne three was

771
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,159
rushed, and then everybody was like, yeah, meg Man three is not

772
00:50:53,199 --> 00:51:00,599
as good as it was. He
never caught that before. And then doctor

773
00:51:00,679 --> 00:51:06,639
Ryan says, y'all should play the
first Tales to see the best RPG villain

774
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:16,400
Gun Days. Motherfucker, we're talking
about Tails of Fantasia here. I'm sorry,

775
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:20,199
I'm sorry, I lost I lost
it. What's the boss's name?

776
00:51:20,639 --> 00:51:30,159
The Gun Days? Gundees and nuts. Mike, you didn't pay attention.

777
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:38,239
I read ahead, and I was
trying not to like jump out of my

778
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:42,719
seat, like hoping that that would
happen. Oh boy, this is why

779
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:47,920
we keep the good, the Good
Doctor Ryan, everybody. They indicted me

780
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,920
for AUDIR listeners. Mike has left
the podcast. He's retired. Actually,

781
00:51:55,039 --> 00:51:58,599
I expect a statement from his family
in at any moment. Now, you

782
00:51:58,639 --> 00:52:00,559
want to do a break, Let's
do a break. We'll be right back

783
00:52:00,559 --> 00:52:07,639
after this. Everybody, and we
are back. We're gonna do the best

784
00:52:07,639 --> 00:52:12,440
Games of twenty eighteen. As always, it's a top five list. Me

785
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:16,239
and Mike decide. We take input
from the podcast producers. Let's get started

786
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:19,880
with Mike Manati, what do you
think we should put on the list?

787
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,159
First? Right? That? Redemption
two came out in twenty eighteen, one

788
00:52:22,159 --> 00:52:28,199
of the critically acclaimed games of all
time, one of the most high things.

789
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,119
Do you really like it that much
as much as everyone else? Yo?

790
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,199
Okay, no, my second,
I do like it. Maybe it's

791
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,119
always like it. I know you
like it. I just for some people

792
00:52:37,159 --> 00:52:42,000
it is like the patron Saint of
video games. I think it's a nine

793
00:52:42,039 --> 00:52:44,039
outs. I don't think it's a
ten out of tight. Okay, and

794
00:52:44,079 --> 00:52:46,800
that's yes, Okay, that's what
I thought. Okay. Seriously, though,

795
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,880
game, I think I can actually
get on here. There's there actually

796
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,039
are a lot I'm surprised, you
know, twiceventeen again you're think about all

797
00:52:53,079 --> 00:52:58,199
the time, lots of good games
this year. I think I'll actually go

798
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:01,679
to Celeste first. Oh okay,
interesting, not what it is expecting,

799
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:06,639
but definitely deserving of consideration. Yeah, I think we both like this.

800
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,519
I think we made a game of
the Year at games Beat Jeff when we

801
00:53:08,519 --> 00:53:13,840
were there. That sounds right,
Celest rules, Celest is a an all

802
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,000
time great game. Yes, I
love Celeste right, And you know,

803
00:53:16,119 --> 00:53:20,840
like I love two D platformers,
and what I My favorite mechanic in those

804
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,360
games is usually like like wile jumping, And here's a game that's kind of

805
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:29,360
really built about while jumping and dashing
and just making that feel good. It's

806
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,079
got this fun, cute little story
and character moments built in between there.

807
00:53:32,079 --> 00:53:36,679
And I love, like, you
know, the way the difficulty works,

808
00:53:37,039 --> 00:53:39,280
Like the base game can't get difficult, but like the real difficult stuff is

809
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:44,280
this optional stuff that is fun to
tackle when and if you want to.

810
00:53:45,159 --> 00:53:50,079
I would probably keep it in a
similar vein or maybe a similar scope.

811
00:53:50,079 --> 00:53:52,320
I regard that this was a new
beer I was drinking, so I tipped

812
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:55,800
it too much. A lot of
beer skilled on me. It's never never

813
00:53:55,800 --> 00:54:01,119
got I recently have had bad luck
with my drinks from of like fast food,

814
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,519
and I'll just be like the straw
on the lid on and I'll just

815
00:54:04,559 --> 00:54:07,400
tip it a little bit and it's
like the whole thing just spills out of

816
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,400
the very top of like how full
it is. It's very frustrating. Into

817
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:15,639
the Breach that is the game that
I would put on there. I yeah,

818
00:54:15,639 --> 00:54:21,639
I really like Into the Breach.
It is this small, condensed tactics

819
00:54:21,679 --> 00:54:27,000
game that does everything right to make
them get the most out of the five

820
00:54:27,039 --> 00:54:29,800
turns you get for each round.
And it's not like, oh, it's

821
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,119
five turns because it's a mobile game
first or something like that. It's like,

822
00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:37,679
no, this is everything just boiled
down to its barest parts. And

823
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,639
then on top of that, it
gives you all the information you need to

824
00:54:40,679 --> 00:54:45,320
make these really tough choices, and
you will be in these situations where you

825
00:54:46,039 --> 00:54:49,760
are trapped by one of these bugs
and you're like, it's a game where

826
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,920
you're a giant robots fighting kaiju and
one of these kaiju will have you,

827
00:54:52,199 --> 00:54:55,679
yeah, bug, we'll have you
held down, and another one will be

828
00:54:55,679 --> 00:54:59,679
about to hit a building and another
one will be about to emerge out of

829
00:54:59,679 --> 00:55:02,519
the ground, and you'll rack your
brain for fifteen minutes on this one turn

830
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:07,039
and finally find the solution where you
can kill everything, stop everything from happening,

831
00:55:07,079 --> 00:55:10,239
and also make sure that you take
no damage to your city. And

832
00:55:10,679 --> 00:55:15,760
it feels so satisfying when you find
those after I thinking about it for so

833
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:20,840
long, and it's like almost at
any point you have enough capabilities and if

834
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:24,280
you're creative enough, you can find
that perfect solution, and having all the

835
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:28,920
information makes it really easy to do
that. And then having only five turns

836
00:55:29,199 --> 00:55:30,400
gives you this light at the end
of the tunnel of being like, if

837
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,880
I just can survive this next turn
and that next turn, we can get

838
00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,400
out of here without taking any damage, And it just feels so cool.

839
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,599
And it's also a rogue light,
so you're like slowly unlocking things over time.

840
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:44,199
And if you get in this situation
where you are playing a bunch of

841
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,719
the playing with a bunch of different
different builds and different kinds of teams that

842
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:50,679
you can have, it could be
a very different game from one run to

843
00:55:50,679 --> 00:55:53,280
the next. So just love into
the breach. I don't know why I

844
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:55,960
didn't get into it more. I
play a lot of games like this.

845
00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,679
I don't know why this was the
one that kind of stressed me out.

846
00:56:00,039 --> 00:56:02,480
I love the way the game looked, I loved its mechanics. For some

847
00:56:02,559 --> 00:56:07,480
reason, I didn't stick with it. Yeah, it's kind of like I

848
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,719
think Austin Walker said, It's like
a dance, but in a turn based

849
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:14,159
dance. And when I thought started
thinking about it that way, it made

850
00:56:14,159 --> 00:56:17,320
it feel like this these epic anime
battles happening, even though it was clearly

851
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:21,920
like just turn based and not a
lot happening in terms of the animation itself.

852
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:30,239
Super Smash Brothers Ultimate came out this
year. There you really really did

853
00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:36,480
live up to its name with that
Ultimate Moniker just a ridiculous roster in this

854
00:56:36,599 --> 00:56:40,559
game, it feels so smooth,
so good to play. Just just it

855
00:56:40,639 --> 00:56:43,920
really is the ideal form of Smash
Brothers in a lot of ways. I

856
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:47,400
know Mainley will always be Melee,
but just really is the best feeling Smash

857
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:52,039
Brothers. You know, there's a
little equips here and there. The online

858
00:56:52,079 --> 00:56:59,239
still isn't great. That main Spirits
mode or whatever could have been maybe a

859
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,440
bit more, but it us still
pretty fun. But man, I could.

860
00:57:01,519 --> 00:57:05,000
I could play this game till the
end of time. It's somewhat fun.

861
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:07,599
Yeah. I like Ultimate too.
The kids are playing it more and

862
00:57:07,599 --> 00:57:13,719
more frequently, which is a did
they play with no items? No,

863
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:17,000
Mike, they happen to play with
items. They kind of said after I

864
00:57:17,079 --> 00:57:21,719
said that, there's a big thunder
strike, like, okay, sorry God,

865
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,920
God zach or is there to judge
you? Okay, my path.

866
00:57:27,639 --> 00:57:36,039
I didn't know God was a filthy
casual. Hit Man two. Hit Man

867
00:57:36,079 --> 00:57:40,880
two is really good. There's some
fantastic maps in hit Man two. This

868
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:45,840
is the game where they were independent
now, and they sort of like scaled

869
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:50,519
back some of the of the presentation, like some of the things were like

870
00:57:50,519 --> 00:57:52,519
static images. I think this is
the one where that happened. And yet

871
00:57:52,599 --> 00:57:57,079
I also cared way more about Ancient
forty seven in this game. They like

872
00:57:57,199 --> 00:58:00,000
nailed that part of it, which
was really surprising. And then on top

873
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:04,159
of that, it just it just
has more and more of the great features

874
00:58:04,159 --> 00:58:07,559
you want from this clockwork world and
enabling you to go in there and throw

875
00:58:07,639 --> 00:58:10,920
a wrench into the works to mess
things up. I think it had the

876
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:15,280
reflective mirrors so people could see you
in mirrors now and that like made things

877
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,760
really interesting. Hit Man two is
just so good on top of what hit

878
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:22,360
Man sixteen or twenty sixteen was already
doing, and this is that much better.

879
00:58:22,199 --> 00:58:25,000
Yeah, Miami is such a good
level. I love those two DLC

880
00:58:25,119 --> 00:58:30,599
levels, the Bank and the Bank
Island really good. Yes, they so

881
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:32,840
some of the best DLC ever.
I think it's up there for me.

882
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:37,360
And then yeah, that that Miami
race level is when I played over and

883
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:39,559
over and over and over again.
Now yeah, yeah, when I did

884
00:58:39,599 --> 00:58:44,000
that Bank level, I accidentally did
the hardcore mode or whatever, and my

885
00:58:44,079 --> 00:58:45,719
friend was like just happy watching me, so like I was playing it so

886
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:51,320
carefully and that made it so much
fun. Actually, yeah. Yeah,

887
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,400
it's a game where where when they
find the opportunities to ramp up the stress,

888
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,920
it just adds to the tension of
the game and makes it that much

889
00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:02,679
better. A Lot of War twenty
eighteen came out this year. This was

890
00:59:02,719 --> 00:59:06,079
a really fun you know, it's
funny, like the name and everything.

891
00:59:06,119 --> 00:59:08,400
It's it's a reboot, but it's
also a sequel, and I think that's

892
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:14,199
what's really great about this is that
there finally is some character growth, a

893
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:19,320
character change for Kratos. Putting him
in this dad role is fun. You

894
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:22,280
know. Just doing the over to
shoulder thing seemed a little weird at first,

895
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:27,440
but it actually did work in making
the combat feel a lot more visceral,

896
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:31,440
up close and personal, you know, even something more gammicky stuff like

897
00:59:31,599 --> 00:59:36,639
it's like one continuous take. That
was also neat. I think this is

898
00:59:36,679 --> 00:59:40,159
a tidier game than Valhalla, even
I think the story is simpler in a

899
00:59:40,159 --> 00:59:44,519
way that helps it and benefits it. It's not branching off into all these

900
00:59:44,599 --> 00:59:47,400
other different paths, doesn't feel like
it has any padding. Just a really

901
00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:52,280
good time. Yeah. I didn't
play a ton of this game. I

902
00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:55,280
played more Valhalla than I did of
I'm sorry, I mean, I'm getting

903
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:59,440
things mixed up. I played quite
a bit of twenty eighteen, but now

904
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,559
I didn't finish, didn't get all
the way through it, and I thought

905
01:00:02,559 --> 01:00:06,280
it was good. It's one of
those games where I could see why people

906
01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:08,960
like it so much. It's not
entirely for me, but there was nothing

907
01:00:09,039 --> 01:00:13,079
I found offensive or bad, and
most of the stuff I'm like, oh,

908
01:00:13,119 --> 01:00:15,320
this is clearly a very well made
game. So yeah, I appreciate

909
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:21,639
twenty eighteen. Mostly from a distance
I would go with, Yeah, Tetris

910
01:00:21,679 --> 01:00:27,280
effect, that is a one that
I feel very strongly about, especially every

911
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,639
time I go back to it and
it's like, oh, this still does

912
01:00:29,679 --> 01:00:32,000
have all the magic of what I
first experienced there. This is the game

913
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:38,800
that made me fully reckon with the
idea that games are not just their mechanics.

914
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:43,079
It is the like, the meaning
of games comes from where the mechanics

915
01:00:43,119 --> 01:00:47,239
meet the audio visual experience. And
when you have something that is still Tetris,

916
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:52,440
but then all this amazing music and
visual delights are happening alongside it,

917
01:00:52,559 --> 01:00:57,760
or in conjunction or in sync with
it, it gives the mechanics of Tetris

918
01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,880
even more meaning and it blew me
away. It's a great game. Yeah,

919
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,519
you can always argue what's the best
version of Tetris, but this is

920
01:01:02,519 --> 01:01:07,440
a version of Tetris that's never going
to be obsolete because that's both a great

921
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:12,599
Tetris game and is doing something unique
and interesting and kind of timeless. I

922
01:01:12,639 --> 01:01:15,719
love it, yep, I do
too. Okay, quite a few here

923
01:01:15,719 --> 01:01:20,280
to choose from. I'm gonna go
Dragon Quest eleven next. This was the

924
01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:23,159
game that really finally did get me
into Dragon Quests. You know, especially

925
01:01:23,199 --> 01:01:28,159
at a time where like Sweary Knicks
was basically uninterested in ever making a traditional

926
01:01:28,199 --> 01:01:30,679
final fantasy game again, like we're
not going to do turn based. I

927
01:01:30,719 --> 01:01:37,000
loved how this does just actually feel
like a modern version of a very old

928
01:01:37,039 --> 01:01:40,039
school Japanese gerrapeg was still being turn
based, still having that party, still

929
01:01:40,039 --> 01:01:45,400
having all these really classic and in
a lot of ways simple Dragon Mechanics,

930
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:51,760
just doing it in a big world
with just a ton of different towns and

931
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,880
dungeons to explore. It's a big
game. It's a bigger game than you

932
01:01:55,920 --> 01:02:02,920
even expect when you're playing it.
Definitely one of my favorite Jrpgee's got him

933
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:06,159
there are There's still quite a few
to choose from. There's some that I

934
01:02:06,159 --> 01:02:08,079
think I would like to get to
as honorable mentions when we're done with the

935
01:02:08,079 --> 01:02:12,559
podcast producers. One that I want
to go back to is Battle Tech.

936
01:02:12,559 --> 01:02:15,159
I want to play more of that. That's one of those strategy games that

937
01:02:15,199 --> 01:02:17,400
I enjoyed and wish I would have
spent more time with. But I think

938
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:22,199
the next game I would actually put
on here is Marvel's Spider Man. Yeah,

939
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:27,239
Marvel Spider Man. Gosh, I
remember, I remember we played that

940
01:02:27,239 --> 01:02:31,119
Devil for the first time at Sony's
last E three press conference thing. It

941
01:02:31,159 --> 01:02:35,880
was just so much fun because it
did finally bring swinging back in a way

942
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:40,400
that felt incredible, felt right up. Yeah, I liked having this giant

943
01:02:40,519 --> 01:02:45,159
New York to explore. I'm glad
that they did jam a lot of villains

944
01:02:45,159 --> 01:02:47,440
in there because I like, I
like all those Spider Man villains, just

945
01:02:47,559 --> 01:02:52,000
like great versions of Peter Parker,
great version Miles Morause, a great version

946
01:02:52,119 --> 01:02:57,519
of doc owk of Mary Jane.
I loved how familiar yet slightly different this

947
01:02:57,599 --> 01:03:00,320
interpretation of Spider Man fl especially you
know, the New movies, but like

948
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:07,079
that Tom Holland Spider Man is such
a different take that I appreciate it.

949
01:03:07,119 --> 01:03:08,639
But I do like how this feels
a little bit more like this is just

950
01:03:08,679 --> 01:03:13,280
what Spider Man would have been like
if it was made now instead of in

951
01:03:13,559 --> 01:03:19,280
the sixties. Yeah. One of
the biggest things I appreciate about the storytelling

952
01:03:19,519 --> 01:03:22,519
of Marvel Spider Man is not an
origin story. We are well within him

953
01:03:22,639 --> 01:03:28,159
being a Spider Man and being able
to like just get into things was really

954
01:03:28,239 --> 01:03:30,000
cool, and that was one that
I was happy I played all the way

955
01:03:30,039 --> 01:03:34,920
through and got to the climax and
the fight there with the boss. In

956
01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:38,199
that game, they put so much
good. Final Boss is a good Boston's

957
01:03:38,199 --> 01:03:43,239
Too, does right, Absolutely yes, and and a lot of that is

958
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:45,760
you know, it meant more like
it meant more with what is happening in

959
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:51,280
the first one, because I cared
about the personal stakes a lot more in

960
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:52,800
the first one, and the second
one gets a little bit more muddled with

961
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:58,519
that stuff. But you know whatever, Marvel Spider Man is also just like

962
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:01,280
the kind of open world game I
want to be playing one with really great

963
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:08,079
locomotion and a fun New York City
with the occasional distraction. Actually there's a

964
01:04:08,079 --> 01:04:11,519
ton of distractions in the first Spider
Man, but I didn't even know if

965
01:04:11,519 --> 01:04:13,559
you did do them all, and
that was fine, Yeah, exactly.

966
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,280
The Messenger came out this year.
This studio is getting a lot of love

967
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:24,199
now because they did Sea of Stars, which is actually in the same universe

968
01:04:24,239 --> 01:04:27,159
as this game. This game is
really fun because it starts out as a

969
01:04:27,239 --> 01:04:31,199
kind of eight bit inspired almost a
Ninja Guidance style game, and then halfway

970
01:04:31,199 --> 01:04:34,679
through it opens up into being more
of a Metroidvania. It even sort of

971
01:04:34,719 --> 01:04:41,599
shifts the aesthetics into the sixteen bit
world. Just really clever design, really

972
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:46,559
great feeling platforming. I think it's
still probably one of the more underappreciated Switch

973
01:04:46,599 --> 01:04:48,960
games. I think a lot of
people do know about this one now.

974
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:53,079
I think it slowly has built up
a pretty good audience. I think CIA

975
01:04:53,159 --> 01:04:57,760
Stars' success probably helped it. The
last one I feel like I really need

976
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:00,320
to get on here is a Return
of the Overden not you might bring that

977
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:04,679
one up. Yeah, I die
you adore of this game. It is

978
01:05:05,519 --> 01:05:09,840
well into my wheelhouse in terms of
the kind of bullshit that I like,

979
01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:15,480
mysteries, detective stuff. The game
is mostly played in your head. It

980
01:05:15,559 --> 01:05:20,880
gives you information and then you need
to do the inferential and deterministic work of

981
01:05:21,079 --> 01:05:25,159
putting the pieces together and then coming
back to the game and saying, well

982
01:05:25,199 --> 01:05:27,079
what do you figure out in your
head? And the games like, yes,

983
01:05:27,159 --> 01:05:29,800
that's correct. That is a really
cool process and this is one of

984
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:32,320
the better games at doing that.
Big fan of for Turn of the Overdain

985
01:05:33,559 --> 01:05:39,119
a couple more I want to mention
here. Astro Bought Rescue Mission is probably

986
01:05:39,239 --> 01:05:43,760
still the best vr G game.
Like that are halfway Alex, It's nuts

987
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,639
that's kind of stuck on platation VR
of like all the games that The Sunny

988
01:05:46,679 --> 01:05:54,679
should release on PC. Please this
one God Rescue Mission is so much fun.

989
01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:58,880
Then Mega Man eleven I got.
I could tractually obligate to bring a

990
01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,320
Megamus. He's such a important character. Jeff, you know series of solover

991
01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:05,599
forty million cock gree here's the third
third party character to be added to Smash

992
01:06:05,639 --> 01:06:10,360
Brothers. Yeah, five percent of
the Giant Bomb audience also agrees. That's

993
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:14,760
just a super majority, I believe, right right. That's how meg Mae

994
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:18,599
eleven is a ton of fun.
I love the dual gear system. I

995
01:06:18,719 --> 01:06:23,400
love how like the one gear slow
things down, So it's kind of like

996
01:06:23,519 --> 01:06:27,000
helps in an easy mode sort of
way because you don't ever actually need to

997
01:06:27,119 --> 01:06:29,679
use it, and it kind of
feels good after you played a few times

998
01:06:29,719 --> 01:06:31,440
and you don't need to use that
one anymore, and you can kind of

999
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:34,920
go through these sections that you thought
you needed to slow down, but actually

1000
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:39,079
if you kind of learn those patterns, you have some muscle memory, you

1001
01:06:39,079 --> 01:06:42,400
can get through it. Actually,
some of my favorite boss designs in the

1002
01:06:42,559 --> 01:06:45,960
series I do. I think I
like a Blackman quite a lot A lot

1003
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:49,280
of fun powers, tons of good
stuff in Magnelman. I can't believe it's

1004
01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:53,079
actually been six years since Megan May
eleven. I think I deserve a new

1005
01:06:53,159 --> 01:06:55,800
Mega Man game. Jeff, Yeah, you've been a good boy. You've

1006
01:06:55,840 --> 01:07:02,679
been a good boy. I've been
speed running the talking. I'm gonna be

1007
01:07:02,719 --> 01:07:06,199
talking a lot about Mega Man and
not doing anything about it other than like

1008
01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:15,119
you have a fucking skin on the
numbers and they're gonna do something. I'll

1009
01:07:15,159 --> 01:07:16,639
do something with Mega Man. I
think a lot of people are gonna start

1010
01:07:16,679 --> 01:07:21,199
realizing that actually a video game that
can sell like one point five million copies

1011
01:07:21,239 --> 01:07:24,840
and not cost three hundred million dollars
is a good thing, and I think

1012
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:29,280
people might want to make more of
this, uh anymore? Before I get

1013
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:31,760
to the podcast producer, i's look
at the podcast producers. I am spent,

1014
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:38,360
all right, give me one moment
while I get that suggestion on the

1015
01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:45,119
super chats. Okay, we'll get
to that too. All right, there

1016
01:07:45,159 --> 01:07:47,800
we are. Let's start here with
Slain, who says Red Dead redemption to

1017
01:07:48,119 --> 01:07:51,800
Cohen, Fuck you grub Wait,
what the hell? It's a pretty good

1018
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:55,119
to edit. I love it.
Yeah, it's a really good edit that

1019
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:59,920
uses the right fune and everything good. I wouldn't even noticed. I'll put

1020
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:04,079
that is my my wallpaper on windows
here. Super Harman says, Dragon Quest

1021
01:08:04,119 --> 01:08:09,639
eleven, Bench j C says Super
Smash Brothers Ultimate. Mister Buller says God

1022
01:08:09,719 --> 01:08:12,840
of War. Uh wow, it
was okay. Buggetilli says for real this

1023
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,440
time, Dead Cells? Did Deed
sales come out one point this year?

1024
01:08:15,599 --> 01:08:19,640
I believe that point in twenty eighteen. We'll consider that for sure. Remember

1025
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:23,880
the teach integration with that, So
that was pretty fun. Oh that's right,

1026
01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:28,239
Yeah, that was cool. Wonder
if that still works. Dominal Crossing

1027
01:08:28,359 --> 01:08:30,000
says Mega Man eleven. I believe, no, no, no, that's

1028
01:08:30,239 --> 01:08:32,479
that's Super Smash Brothers. This is
I got it. I got it.

1029
01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:35,880
Sorry, this is Super Smash Bros. Helped the Ridley reveal where he kills

1030
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:43,359
a bunch of characters. I I
was so like Smash Ultimate. First they

1031
01:08:43,399 --> 01:08:45,359
had the Everybody's here announcement, which
was great, and then at that point

1032
01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:49,239
the two characters I won his Smash
Brothers. Of them most were Ridley and

1033
01:08:49,399 --> 01:08:53,000
Simon Belmont, and they were like
the first two to get announced. I

1034
01:08:53,159 --> 01:08:57,640
was so happy. Yep, that's
I mean They're never going to be able

1035
01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:00,319
to replicate what it was like when
they were announcing characters are Super Smash Brothers

1036
01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:04,119
Ultimate and so many of those all

1042
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:32,039
Apparently they had a Magma crossover.
A lot of people have crossovers with

1043
01:09:32,119 --> 01:09:36,439

character. Jamie h Christmas Christmas, Who

1078
01:12:04,279 --> 01:12:09,720
That's incredible. Oh, it's weird. I didn't realize it is.

1079
01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:13,680
Yeah, that's right, I was
gonna say that. That's right. It

1080
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:15,399
came out in twenty eighteen, and
then really popped off a couple of years

1081
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:19,880
later. Input name here, says
Valkyria Chronicles four. I want to play

1082
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:21,960
more of this game. I played
a little bit out of free and it

1083
01:12:23,079 --> 01:12:26,920
was very fun. Yeah. I
think I started it and then I abandoned

1084
01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:30,439
it for some reason. I should
go back to it. Oh, yes,

1085
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:31,720
Lenny Cool, Dick Denver. I
was well. I was figured we'd

1086
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:33,600
get to this in here. I
was going to ask you when we got

1087
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:38,199
to the end if no one mentioned
it. Monster Hunter World, oh man,

you a Clemency's fantastic. It's a I

1090
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,840
mean, this is the game that
finally made Uster Hunter World big in the

1091
01:12:56,000 --> 01:13:00,640
US. I love its aesthetics a
lot still. I think it's it's my

1092
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:02,199
favorite. All that colonialism, you
know, Jeff, I can't get enough

1093
01:13:02,239 --> 01:13:04,159
of it. Oh yeah, that's
what makes a game good to me.

1094
01:13:06,079 --> 01:13:09,760
Not true? Is this a lie? I don't know why people say that

1095
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:12,760
it's not true. There's I want
to kill you. It's not real.

1096
01:13:14,359 --> 01:13:18,760
Christian always defending his problematic games,

01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,880
working. Yeah, Devil Joe Baby, look at that beautiful motherfucker. Oh

1105
01:13:55,880 --> 01:13:59,399
Was this the last WI release?
I hope? So I feel like I

1106
01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:01,840
feel like just coming leave. The
last one was twenty twenty, Okay,

1107
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:05,159
I was going. I thought for
at least one more year. Joy Z

1108
01:14:05,399 --> 01:14:10,239
says last of their return of the
ober Den Man. I bet I could

1109
01:14:10,239 --> 01:14:13,359
replay that game and not remember anything
that would rule. I also think you

1110
01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:20,199
could do Terioki Blue says into the
breach. Yeah. Matt Rare Monkey says

1115
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:43,439
five says Octopath Traveler Mike, anything
to say about that one? I think

1116
01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:49,279
I'll refrain this time. Wow,
that's way worse than if you would have

1117
01:14:49,319 --> 01:14:54,640
just said something we's been says Fallout
seventy six. Mike, you want to

1118
01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:57,439
say anything? Yeah, a great
preview event, not a good game.

1119
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:03,319
I always daydream about getting into Fallout
seventy sixties days play. That would be

1120
01:15:03,399 --> 01:15:08,600
a pretty funny professional Friday. Oh
that's yeah. We can have like a

1121
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:11,880
slightly longer one where you can do
a couple of quests in there. That'd

1122
01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:16,800
be fun. Uh. Rees Racers
says Mega Man eleven. Uh, that's

1123
01:15:17,319 --> 01:15:19,960
that's a good name. And also
yeah, Mega Man eleven, Mike talked

1124
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:24,199
about that one. Yeah, that's
a good name. Uh, Jeff,

1125
01:15:24,319 --> 01:15:27,319
you gotta stop teasing us, buddy. There's be some kind of development on

1126
01:15:27,399 --> 01:15:31,640
all that Ridge Racer diving or doing. My contacts are are mad at me

1127
01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:38,359
for pronouncing the name of the company
wrong. Get the ordering back Jeff,

1128
01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:41,920
I did. It's one step foward, two steps back, major step back.

1129
01:15:42,159 --> 01:15:44,439
I'll take them out to dinner.
I will. I'll make amends.

1130
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:47,960
I will get this fixed for you, all right, better Clink says Tetris

1131
01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:56,199
effect b A. King says Shadow
of the Colossus the remake. I like

1132
01:15:56,239 --> 01:15:59,199
the original better, but I don't
hate this or anything. I mean,

1133
01:15:59,239 --> 01:16:00,399
I think I I think I'd rather
play them. I don't know. It's

1134
01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:03,000
hard to say. I've played the
original while I liked this remake a lot,

1135
01:16:03,079 --> 01:16:08,199
but I I just love Shallow the
Colossus really shape or form I could.

1136
01:16:08,359 --> 01:16:12,560
I freaking can't get enough of that
game. It's so good. Wardencliff

1137
01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:15,000
says On Rush is this game still
playable? Because I've never touched it and

1138
01:16:15,039 --> 01:16:17,720
I can always wanted to. I
don't know much about on Rush. It's

1139
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:23,239
the game where you need to hit
the ramps to like land your car on

1140
01:16:23,359 --> 01:16:26,359
the other cars to like take them
out. I think, okay, oh

1141
01:16:26,359 --> 01:16:29,319
okay, and that always sounds good
to me. Okay, this is okay,

1142
01:16:29,319 --> 01:16:30,960
and it's not playable. I wonder
if I could like get a like

1143
01:16:31,079 --> 01:16:34,640
local version running or something. I
don't know. Let's just play that monster

1144
01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:38,199
truck game where it comes out,
because that kind of looked like on Rush

1145
01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:42,359
that they look a little bit like
on Rush. DMC depressed me crying,

1146
01:16:42,399 --> 01:16:46,119
says Horizon Chase Turbo. This is
yeah, this is a solid outrun like

1147
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:51,000
I know a lot of people really
like these games. Corley Pooh says astro

1148
01:16:51,439 --> 01:16:55,159
Bots rescue mission, right, that's
what that one's calling. Yep, I

1149
01:16:55,199 --> 01:17:00,279
can never be one straight. Adam
GC says a way out. Did you

1150
01:17:00,279 --> 01:17:02,800
ever play this one? No?
Actually, which is because I've played Brothers

1151
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:09,079
and I've played the you play the
divorce game, right, yeah, you

1152
01:17:09,159 --> 01:17:11,640
know. I'm just I'm a big
rule follower, Jeff, So I don't

1153
01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:15,119
want to help these uh these criminals, right person. They need to do

1154
01:17:15,159 --> 01:17:17,960
their time and then if the other
one is a divorce game, to get

1155
01:17:18,039 --> 01:17:21,159
you get married at the end on
this on this one, yeah, probably

1156
01:17:21,520 --> 01:17:26,159
all right. I kind of want
to check this out eventually, but I

1157
01:17:26,199 --> 01:17:31,239
don't know, I don't know when. Stereotypic stereotypically hot villain Eden says Reckfest.

1158
01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:34,760
Reckfest is a fun time always,
like when we do Reckfest stuff at

1159
01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:40,520
Giant Bomb. We'll probably do that
again eventually. U barspackl says Red Dead

1160
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:43,079
Redemption too. I haven't seen a
ton of that. I mean, I

1161
01:17:43,079 --> 01:17:45,560
think we had a couple earlier,
but not nothing. Everyone's afraid to draw

1162
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:48,359
your ire I don't think. I
don't think so. I don't rule this

1163
01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:55,680
discord with an iron fist. That's
absurd, rub it, says Pocket Monsters.

1164
01:17:55,760 --> 01:18:00,479
Let's go peek at chew. Yeah, I was like, I thought,

1165
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:01,359
let's go pick. It was going
to be a baby game, and

1166
01:18:01,399 --> 01:18:03,880
then I had a ton of fun
with it actually, So yeah, babies

1167
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:10,159
are to have fun. Are allowed
to have fun, says Assassin's Creed Odyssey,

1168
01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:13,560
which is a good game. This
has not come up yet, No,

1169
01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:16,079
I think I think this is my
favorite of those three really big open

1170
01:18:16,119 --> 01:18:19,840
world games. I still think it
has the problem being like like too big,

1171
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:24,319
of course, but it's definitely the
prettiest of them. I think the

1172
01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:29,239
ancient Greece setting is the most interesting
of the lot. It's definitely the one

1173
01:18:29,239 --> 01:18:33,199
I would want to go back to. Wong Gibbs follows that up with Assassin's

1174
01:18:33,279 --> 01:18:42,600
Creed Odyssey. Hammond of Texas says
Insurgency Sandstorm It's like yes, so yeah,

1175
01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:46,640
it's it's in the counter Strike like
Orbit, a little bit more stimulator,

1176
01:18:47,239 --> 01:18:51,680
a little bit more, Yeah,
like a Dylan infinite Well, says

1177
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:58,399
Celeste. Laser wolfs says Red Dead, Redemption two. Now that bunch more

1178
01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:01,680
gonna come in. Adam Juice a
boy boy God of War twenty eighteen.

1179
01:19:02,279 --> 01:19:08,439
Uh t money Og says read Edward
emptionoud too, that's strange. Michael Riley

1180
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:13,520
says The Messenger Nice Vision forty nine
comes in with Dusk, which I like

1181
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:17,520

a whole bunch. JD. Camp

1187

says Subnautica. I was wondering if
Subnautica come up. This is another big

1188
01:19:46,079 --> 01:19:51,000
one on my back catalog. Me
too, I uh and again, I'm

1189
01:19:51,199 --> 01:19:56,479
afraid of playing games where there are
things underneath me in water, So grub

1190
01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,520
Nautica will still have to happen.
At some point we will uniter that,

1191
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:04,119
yes, and I'll be I'll be
in v Jesus Christ. ZOOMR says PlayStation

1192
01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:09,600
they actually have a pretty good year. Huh. I guess PlayStation did have

1193
01:20:09,640 --> 01:20:13,479
a really strong twenty eighteen. As
that Spider Man God of War. I

1194
01:20:13,560 --> 01:20:16,800
mean, yeah, that's a good
year. Klaus Rainer says Kingdom Come Deliverance,

1195
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:19,119
which I always thought was kind of
a corny game, but I know

1196
01:20:19,239 --> 01:20:23,880
lot of people would like it.
It's it's yeah, I know, it's

1197
01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:28,880
not me. Dorachi says, yeah, Kuzza six the Song of Life,

1198
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:34,880
I believe that could be anything.
No, the Song of Life. Alexa

1201
01:20:45,399 --> 01:20:49,720
Ultimate. Wow, first look at
you know what what character my eyes are

1202
01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:54,399
drawn to here? I mean Mario
first, sure, but then like this,

1203
01:20:54,760 --> 01:21:00,199
Mega Man right really front and center, visiting as protesting. I think

1204
01:21:00,359 --> 01:21:04,239
I tried to convince himself he seems
pretty important in this picture, doesn't he.

1205
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:09,399
Mike, you won the poll.
Come on, dude, I'm a

1206
01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:15,079
sore winner. We all know that
not wrong. Freshly streamed games Monster Hunter

1207
01:21:15,199 --> 01:21:20,399
World, Mitsurugi says, Dragon Ball
Fighters, Yes, let's go a game.

1208
01:21:20,760 --> 01:21:24,079
It's a great game. We should. We should play some of that

1209
01:21:24,199 --> 01:21:28,640
again, we should. It has
to be roll now, Yes, I

1210
01:21:29,319 --> 01:21:31,720
would want to play as if I
played Dragon Ball Fighters, I would just

1211
01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:40,800
play one of the Goku disgusting maybe
yo. I don't know now, but

1212
01:21:40,920 --> 01:21:45,159
Jana was like top tier back in
the day. I would have Life Savings

1213
01:21:45,199 --> 01:21:49,359
and Michaeho plays Android eighteen. I
love, and I think that was my

1214
01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:56,159
tent. I think that was my
Budekuei. Three Man Mike says that Mike

1215
01:21:56,399 --> 01:22:00,800
earlier sisters grew up thinking is flat
like Florida kinda I kind of think that.

1216
01:22:00,039 --> 01:22:04,279
Yeah, I'm just not imagining Colorado
like mountains is all I think,

1217
01:22:04,319 --> 01:22:11,319
says the Messenger. Turbo Sean says
Super Smash Brothers Ultimate and that does it

1218
01:22:11,359 --> 01:22:15,680
for her time. I forgot to
post She's why is the best smash?

1219
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:18,039
We all know that. Yeah,
there's a lot of support for Monster hundred

1220
01:22:18,039 --> 01:22:23,920
worlds in the thread. Huh yep, Monster Hunter World and it actually played

1221
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:26,720
as much of it as I wanted
to, just because I don't. I

1222
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:30,079
played a lot more Rise just because
it was convenient to play that game portably.

1223
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:34,239
I didn't, Sorry, I didn't
play a lot of Monster Hunter World

1224
01:22:34,239 --> 01:22:36,800
when it come out because he didn't
come out of BC the same day as

1225
01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:40,600
in console you had to wear like
eight months or something like that. That

1226
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:44,800
was something ridiculous. So yeah,
I played way more than the next year

1227
01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:47,680
when it came out on PC.
And also I kind of like more of

1228
01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:53,680
the expansion Ice Warm than the Bass
game Ice Worn. Is that really what

1229
01:22:53,720 --> 01:23:00,720
it was called? Yeah, So
like, yes, sir, I will

1230
01:23:00,720 --> 01:23:03,640
I will put eyes on eyes one
was on this these years. But no,

1231
01:23:05,560 --> 01:23:09,840
here's what Here's what we have,
Red Dead, Redemption Too, Celeste

1232
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:13,560
Into the Breach, Super Smash Brothers, Ultimate hit Man to God of War

1233
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:16,800
twenty eighteen, Tetris Effect, Dragon
Quest eleven, Marvel Spider Man, The

1234
01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:21,439
Messenger, Return of the ober Den, Astrobot, Astrobot Rescue Mission, Mega

1235
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:27,479
Man eleven, Nintendo Labbo, Monster
Hunter World, and Dead Cells. Right,

1236
01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:34,199
what did Labbo get on there?
Okay, I'm removing Nintendo Labo.

1237
01:23:34,399 --> 01:23:38,239
Fine. The good thing that came
out of Labbo is that one guy who

1238
01:23:38,279 --> 01:23:43,359
did that awesome Mario Medley using the
Labbo piano. Yes, I listen to

1239
01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:46,760
that. That's great fun. All
right, So no Nintendo Labo, that's

1240
01:23:46,840 --> 01:23:51,039
fine. I'll settle for that.
Hey, look, that's a lot of

1241
01:23:51,119 --> 01:23:54,399
games. Yeah, I like mag
Man eleven. It's not gonna it's not

1242
01:23:54,399 --> 01:23:57,800
gonna make it. And get rid
of Magnet eleven. Yeah, I'm not

1243
01:23:57,840 --> 01:24:02,000
gonna have eleven. Check the check
the John Bone video they did with Labo

1244
01:24:02,199 --> 01:24:05,560
is one of the funniest videos.
Yeah, that was That was a good

1245
01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:14,359
time. I'm not in that one. I'm not interested. Uh god,

1246
01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:17,000
I love Yeah, says lab a
bear the red the Redition two. Look,

1247
01:24:17,239 --> 01:24:20,159
yes, I know Redemption two is
not making it. You can get

1248
01:24:20,239 --> 01:24:24,399
rid of it. It's fine.
Yeah the relation to I love read the

1249
01:24:24,439 --> 01:24:30,720
relation too, but fuck it.
Ah yeah, okay, well let's pick,

1250
01:24:30,800 --> 01:24:32,239
like pick what we think we should
definitely go up, Mike, because

1251
01:24:32,279 --> 01:24:39,439
it's kind of hard to cut things
now for me. Ah, I think

1252
01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,159
the lesson is all is definitely gonna
get up there. That's yeah, that's

1253
01:24:42,159 --> 01:24:45,760
an easy one. There we go. I can go up Let's and I

1254
01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:50,119
think kit Man two is definitely getting
up there. I would I agree,

1255
01:24:50,359 --> 01:24:54,920
Yes, that is one of the
five best games of twenty eighteen pretty easily.

1256
01:24:55,159 --> 01:25:00,520
Let's go, Mike. Yeah,
listen, I like the big Triple

1257
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:04,560
A games that are on this list. Spider Man's my favorite. I I'm

1258
01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:09,279
like, I like Super Smash Brother's
Ultimate a lot, just not the kind

1259
01:25:09,279 --> 01:25:11,640
of game I was gonna play a
ton of. Uh, So that's why

1260
01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:15,079
I'm not like rushing to it.
But I think this makes the list.

1261
01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:18,319
I don't know who, do you? Uh what, Smash or spider Man

1262
01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:23,159
Smash? Yeah, I think Smash
makes the list maybe number five again,

1263
01:25:23,279 --> 01:25:26,319
but like, I think Spider Man
probably has a good chance, also more

1264
01:25:26,359 --> 01:25:29,359
so than God of War for me. Spider Man. Yeah, definitely for

1265
01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:34,079
me too. That's hard because like
I do, And what about Monster Hunter

1266
01:25:34,119 --> 01:25:36,439
World? Is that something like that
you would want to put up there?

1267
01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:41,680
Because I'm not really I like it
a lot, uh some ways. I

1268
01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:44,079
like Riseing in a lot of ways. I think the next one is going

1269
01:25:44,119 --> 01:25:49,239
to really be for me for some
reason. I agree. I think it's

1270
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:54,680
God. God, It's God.
Yeah, I'm like, I'm trying to

1271
01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:57,079
think, like I would like to
see Return of the Oberdain up there,

1272
01:25:57,079 --> 01:26:00,880
but I would also select to see
Tetris effect. I would rather I would

1273
01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:03,840
want touches effect more than over.
Then. Yeah, it is a it

1274
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:08,479
is a character flaw that you don't
like Oberden as much as me, Mike,

1275
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:11,680
But I did like it not as
much. No, maybe I was

1276
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:15,399
just bad at it. I don't
know. It's like right, I beat

1277
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:17,439
it, but I kind of felt
like I was guessing sometimes, and that's

1278
01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:20,520
oh okay. I feel like I
forced it a little bit, okay,

1279
01:26:20,720 --> 01:26:25,640
yes, and I didn't think I
was expecting a bigger payoff at the end

1280
01:26:25,720 --> 01:26:33,479
than just uh and you know magic
sure, So okay, so we didn't

1281
01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:36,760
put Spider Man on there. Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm down to

1282
01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:41,119
clown with Spider Man. I'm gonna
miss into the breach, but that's fine.

1283
01:26:41,239 --> 01:26:45,439
I don't really know. Yeah,
okay, if I'll keep into the

1284
01:26:45,479 --> 01:26:48,039
breach, if it keeps or an
EMPI, I feel I feel worse about

1285
01:26:48,039 --> 01:26:51,520
I feel bad about no Drank Quest
eleven, but I'm also not getting rid

1286
01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:54,600
of anything here for it. And
also, like you know, the game

1287
01:26:54,640 --> 01:27:00,680
does have a better version later god
like Drug Qust eleven. Uh what else

1288
01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:01,720
was there when you might scrolling down? I have to keep Yeah? Yeah,

1289
01:27:01,800 --> 01:27:04,199
so it's into the breach. God
of War, Dragon Quest eleven,

1290
01:27:04,239 --> 01:27:10,159
The Messenger, Return of the oberden
Astrobot Rescue Mission, A Monster Hunter World,

1291
01:27:10,319 --> 01:27:13,760
and Dead Cells. I mean,
I think if any of these games

1292
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:15,039
is going to get moved up,
it would be into the Bridge and then

1293
01:27:15,079 --> 01:27:18,399
after that Dragon Quest eleven. Yeah, so you know, I think those

1294
01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:21,199
are just two games that like one
of us really likes, the know,

1295
01:27:21,239 --> 01:27:25,399
the one does that much experience with
so as a together this list. Now,

1296
01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:28,439
look, I played, I played
a good ten to eleven hours a

1297
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,079
Dragon Quest eleven when I was on
I believe one time, and I enjoyed.

1298
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:36,439
I enjoyed it quite a bit.
I if there's something you want to

1299
01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:42,279
take off, I'll entertain it.
I mean, I mean that's the thing,

1300
01:27:42,399 --> 01:27:45,920
not really, not really you You
really like Tetris effective as well?

1301
01:27:46,079 --> 01:27:49,239
Right? You know what? Maybe
I wouldn't have until I think just this

1302
01:27:49,359 --> 01:27:54,600
year I finally played through all of
it on a switch on like some trip,

1303
01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:58,000
and like I always did like it, but I really got into it.

1304
01:27:58,159 --> 01:28:00,520
It's great, It's really good on
that switch o led it really is

1305
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,520
fantastic on the switch olid. Yeah. Okay, listen, In fact,

1306
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:06,760
why don't we put it above Spider
Man? Yeah, I'm I like that.

1307
01:28:06,960 --> 01:28:12,000
Okay, let's do that. In
fact, let's put Smash Brothers above

1308
01:28:12,039 --> 01:28:19,159
Spider Man. All right, interesting, I'm okay with that too, Super

1309
01:28:19,359 --> 01:28:25,199
Smash Brothers. Ultimately, are you
okay with Celesti at number one? Because

1310
01:28:25,279 --> 01:28:30,760
I am? I am also Celesti
rules. I love Celeste. It's I

1311
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:33,920
have not gone back to it in
any real way since, so I just

1312
01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:36,319
playing the hell out of it,
you know, doing those B sides,

1313
01:28:36,399 --> 01:28:42,159
doing as much of the challenges as
possible. The core game getting to the

1314
01:28:42,239 --> 01:28:45,159
top of the mountain is such an
awesome experience. I love that game,

1315
01:28:45,319 --> 01:28:47,640
honestly, I want to I want
to play that again. And then there's

1316
01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:53,479
all those Super Mario World I think, or maybe a Super Mario Brothers three

1317
01:28:54,279 --> 01:28:57,279
hacks that make the game play like
Celeste. I'm like, I want to

1318
01:28:57,319 --> 01:29:00,680
do that. God, I love
Celestia. I remember you're playing Prince of

1319
01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:03,039
Personal Lost Crown. They were just
obvious to lists is there and how happy

1320
01:29:03,119 --> 01:29:05,239
I was about them? Like yeah, And the DFC is like, We're

1321
01:29:05,239 --> 01:29:08,720
gonna have challenge packs of more of
that stuff, and I'm like, hell,

1322
01:29:09,039 --> 01:29:13,439
yes, let's go. Uh if
the list is number five, Marvel

1323
01:29:13,479 --> 01:29:16,840
Spider Man, then going up to
Super Smash Brothers Ultimate at four, then

1324
01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:23,159
Tetris Effect, Hit Man two at
two, and Celested number one. I

1325
01:29:23,359 --> 01:29:25,119
like it. What do you think? I like it. There's a part

1326
01:29:25,119 --> 01:29:28,279
of he's like, uh, Dragon
Quest or Spider Man, but then I'm

1327
01:29:28,319 --> 01:29:32,239
finding the way and I don't know
Spider Like we talked about great year just

1328
01:29:32,279 --> 01:29:35,000
for PlayStation. I think there should
be eight play station game on there,

1329
01:29:35,039 --> 01:29:39,960
because yeah, that's a pretty good
point. Yeah. I was gonna was

1330
01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:41,840
gonna say, no, maybe we
should move it, but you're right,

1331
01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:45,840
that was a strong gear for PlayStation
and I always felt that Spider Man was

1332
01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:48,279
like sort of underrated that year.
Yeah, all these games were getting Game

1333
01:29:48,279 --> 01:29:53,039
of the Year consideration and Spider Man
was never even really in that conversation.

1334
01:29:53,399 --> 01:29:56,279
And obviously we saw how much better
it could get with I think, like

1335
01:29:56,399 --> 01:29:59,760
even Miles Morales, but then with
Spider Man two in terms of like just

1336
01:29:59,800 --> 01:30:02,560
the the way the games play.
But still Marvel Spider Man nailed that out

1337
01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:05,399
of the gate for that team.
Yep, I like it all right,

1338
01:30:05,640 --> 01:30:08,720
Mike read the list for me one
more time while I go ahead and put

1339
01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:13,039
this on Twitter. Game has decided
the best games of twenty eighteen, and

1340
01:30:13,159 --> 01:30:15,680
they are a number five, Marvel's
Spider Man, a number four, Super

1341
01:30:15,800 --> 01:30:20,600
Smash Brothers Ultimate number three, Tetris
Effect, number two, hit Man two,

1342
01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:26,600
and the number one Celeste. All
Right, we're gonna take a quick

1343
01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:28,880
break. When we get back,
we'll talk about what we've been playing right

1344
01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:35,439
after this. All right, good
job, Mike on coming up with the

1345
01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:40,520
top five games of twenty eighteen.
Uh, that means it's time for what

1346
01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:44,479
we've been playing. And Mike,
I played some Star Wars Battlefront today,

1347
01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:46,560
as did you. And this is
a game that we you know, we

1348
01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:48,560
talked about it a little bit.
Let's I was like, you know,

1349
01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:53,479
let's have a real conversation about it
real quick. This is one that our

1350
01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:56,880
community is really hot and heavy on. They really like it. They are

1351
01:30:56,960 --> 01:31:00,159
frustrated with us for not giving it
the respect they think it deserves. And

1352
01:31:00,239 --> 01:31:05,159
after playing it, I get it. I think comparing it to I think

1353
01:31:05,239 --> 01:31:12,319
comparing it to GoldenEye was a very
like eye opening thing and really today it's

1354
01:31:12,319 --> 01:31:14,800
a much better game to play than
gold and I in my opinion, it's

1355
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:17,520
hard to go back to GoldenEye.
For me, this was you just go

1356
01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:23,119
fit right back in and you're immediately
playing a really fun multiplayer game. I

1357
01:31:23,199 --> 01:31:28,880
think that for like the big multiplayer
games where you have like thirty two versus

1358
01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:31,880
thirty two or something like that,
or that's a possibility. This one is

1359
01:31:32,199 --> 01:31:36,239
maybe works better for me than any
of the battlefield games I played. I

1360
01:31:36,319 --> 01:31:41,279
always thought battlefield games were kind of
messy, and I was always like running

1361
01:31:41,359 --> 01:31:44,640
back to the battle. These ones
were just like, no, you're going

1362
01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:46,960
to get back to the action pretty
quickly. I was really enjoying it.

1363
01:31:47,279 --> 01:31:50,159
How about you. I did,
like I liked Baffle ninety forty two and

1364
01:31:50,239 --> 01:31:55,840
like Vietnam a good bit, and
there's some of that. There's definitely a

1365
01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:58,279
lot of that in here. Some
of it is like some of the negatives

1366
01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:02,039
were I don't know if this probably
excushoe, but never like it. Somebody

1367
01:32:02,079 --> 01:32:04,520
in the other teams in a vehicle, it feels like they go around and

1368
01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:08,159
just win the game and then when
I get one, I explode in two

1369
01:32:08,279 --> 01:32:11,399
seconds. But no, I totally
get it, you know what, Jeff.

1370
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:13,680
In a lot of ways, especially
at the time, this was the

1371
01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:16,760
most Star Wars game, right,
Yeah, like everything is here, it's

1372
01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:20,960
doing all of all of those movies, all these different characters. I think

1373
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:27,000
it doesn't have episode three because that
wasn't out. Maybe maybe I'm making that

1374
01:32:27,119 --> 01:32:29,600
up. Actually I'm not sure.
Two thousand and five, so it would

1375
01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:31,520
have been. Yeah, that would
have been like just coming out. I

1376
01:32:31,560 --> 01:32:34,239
suppose at least what we played Like, No, no, it would have

1377
01:32:34,279 --> 01:32:36,600
been because we were at that mushroom
planet where that one Jedi di I never

1378
01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:40,720
mind, Episode three is in there
same year. So yeah, it has

1379
01:32:40,800 --> 01:32:43,319
everything, and I you know,
you get to play as all these characters.

1380
01:32:44,319 --> 01:32:46,199
I get it. It was a
lot of fun. It definitely it

1381
01:32:46,359 --> 01:32:51,680
nails the mission statement of just being
battlefield. But with Star Wars, yeah,

1382
01:32:51,680 --> 01:32:55,439
we were playing a time, yeah, and we were playing you planted

1383
01:32:55,479 --> 01:32:58,439
out like yep, it's just that
music that you want to hear when you're

1384
01:32:58,479 --> 01:33:00,840
doing Star Wars stuff, and like, yeah, they had it all in

1385
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:03,840
there and rules. When I was
building the server originally, I was testing

1386
01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:08,039
things out. The maps are like, okay, here's the map. Here

1387
01:33:08,279 --> 01:33:12,399
is it wasn't haf Hoth was just
the classic series. But there'll be like

1388
01:33:12,439 --> 01:33:15,800
playinget's like tattooing. Do you want
to do tattooing in the classic trilogy or

1389
01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:19,239
in the prequel trilogy and you can
pick one, so they like had everything

1390
01:33:19,319 --> 01:33:23,479
represented. You're right, there's just
a ton of Star Wars stuff in there.

1391
01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:27,119
So if people were hopping online playing
this game all the time with their

1392
01:33:27,159 --> 01:33:30,760
friends, or playing the split screen
which I saw Barrett and Blessing we're doing.

1393
01:33:30,760 --> 01:33:33,640
I'm kind of funny today because I
bet that's how a lot of kids

1394
01:33:33,760 --> 01:33:39,520
actually experienced this game, just playing
two players split screen co op non stop

1395
01:33:39,560 --> 01:33:42,680
with your kid with your kid friend
after you got home from school. And

1396
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,840
I could see that being a very
very good time. So I'm glad we

1397
01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:47,560
spent some time with it. I
do have an appreciation for it that I

1398
01:33:47,640 --> 01:33:51,159
didn't necessarily have before. And yet, as you said, like, yeah,

1399
01:33:51,199 --> 01:33:54,520
it's not gonna it's not gonna go
on my Mount rushmore Star Wars.

1400
01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:58,359
I'm just all very proud of you
guys forgiving Fair's sake. Thank you.

1401
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:01,600
Oh yeah, really quick. I'm
heurious. Are you guys aware of the

1402
01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:05,319
single player content? I started playing
that on treatment I remember that from the

1403
01:34:05,399 --> 01:34:11,239
time. The single player campaign in
Battlefront two is actually really cool because you

1404
01:34:11,279 --> 01:34:14,840
start playing as a Kong Trooper and
you kind of follow them through the movies

1405
01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:17,199
to the point like where they are
a stormtrooper. It's actually a really fun

1406
01:34:17,279 --> 01:34:20,800
campaign for just you know, having
you fight bought matches in these maps.

1407
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:25,119
Essentially, it works really well.
Yeah yeah, if it's like the diaries

1408
01:34:25,159 --> 01:34:28,279
of someone who ends up in the
five Ozho first, Okay, that sounds

1409
01:34:28,600 --> 01:34:30,119
I will play through that. That. It has like cut scenes and everything's

1410
01:34:30,119 --> 01:34:34,840
pretty well. But the other thing
is actually the thing that people really like

1411
01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:40,600
though, Galactic Conquest. It's basically
almost like a board game, but the

1412
01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:43,479
board is sort of like a Katan
shaped, you know how. It's kind

1413
01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:46,359
of like a hecks and everything with
like branches, you and your you and

1414
01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:50,600
the Empire star and opposite sides,
and you branch out to the different planets

1415
01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:54,760
that you each own with your ships. You like move ships in sort of

1416
01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:58,039
board game fashion, and you get
points every time you win a match,

1417
01:34:58,319 --> 01:35:00,840
and you can then spend those points
to get up You get new troop types,

1418
01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:04,319
you can get upgrades for your troops. You can buy heroes to use

1419
01:35:04,439 --> 01:35:08,960
like Luke Invader, or you can
buy new ships where you can like move

1420
01:35:09,039 --> 01:35:14,520
multiple ships across the board and then
kinds. It's very risk. Yeah,

1421
01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:17,000
I definitely recommend just get a shot. Okay, yeah, I will pay

1422
01:35:17,039 --> 01:35:19,720
that. That would probably be a
fun like little switch thing in bed or

1423
01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:21,359
something like that. Yeah, I'm
gonna throw it. I'll throw it on

1424
01:35:21,399 --> 01:35:26,960
the steam deck. And you know, it really makes me wish I actually

1425
01:35:27,039 --> 01:35:30,039
they they would just make another one. Uh. Battlefront two was already quite

1426
01:35:30,039 --> 01:35:35,279
a while ago, like the New
Battlefront two yep, you know, like

1427
01:35:35,399 --> 01:35:40,439
that game got That game never had
a chance because of its pretty atrocious loop

1428
01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:43,760
boxes, but it was a fun
game. I think they were so close

1429
01:35:43,800 --> 01:35:45,359
to just really nailing it with a
Battlefront three, and it kind of I

1430
01:35:45,399 --> 01:35:49,319
think they get that if they were
to bring back the original concept for the

1431
01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:54,279
old Battlefront three that would have been
on like three sixty ps three. The

1432
01:35:54,399 --> 01:35:58,680
idea was that was going to be
seamless ground to space combat, So you

1433
01:35:58,720 --> 01:36:00,880
would fight like what weight day and
they could gain a ship. You would

1434
01:36:00,880 --> 01:36:04,079
have like a pseudo cut scene,
and then you would be fighting above the

1435
01:36:04,159 --> 01:36:08,239
planet and space bellt you could like
go between them. Wasn't that the one

1436
01:36:08,279 --> 01:36:12,880
with like that the least concept art
of like a lot one. Yeah,

1437
01:36:13,399 --> 01:36:16,640
that's one of like the great game
stuff. Yeah, I had fun,

1438
01:36:16,720 --> 01:36:20,800
Jeff me too. And then beyond
that plan some review games won't be able

1439
01:36:20,800 --> 01:36:25,239
to talk about some of these things
for a little bit, so that's kept

1440
01:36:25,279 --> 01:36:29,039
me pretty busy a little bit more
bolatro. That's still very like taking up

1441
01:36:29,079 --> 01:36:30,920
time here and there, really enjoying
that. Uh but yeah, uh,

1442
01:36:31,079 --> 01:36:33,960
the Star Wars Battlefront That's what I've
been playing. How about you, Mike,

1443
01:36:34,680 --> 01:36:39,560
I took I'm taking a little break
from Persona three to to play Mario

1444
01:36:39,680 --> 01:36:43,760
Golf the Game Boy Color game.
Oh fun. We talked about this,

1445
01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:46,560
how every always think of that Gameboy
Advanced One really a similar and it really

1446
01:36:46,560 --> 01:36:51,159
played the Gameboy Color One as much. And it is also just just kind

1447
01:36:51,159 --> 01:36:55,000
of perfect, right, It's everything
you need. It has just enough of

1448
01:36:55,079 --> 01:36:59,560
that RPG stuff. It's not blocked
down and boring dialogue and like story,

1449
01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:00,640
it's a little bit of it,
but yeah, it's just you know,

1450
01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:04,600
you're leveling up. You have these
like clubhouses to explore. I love just

1451
01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:09,199
like having this little map. You
go to the different courses and you challenge

1452
01:37:09,239 --> 01:37:14,640
these champions to match games, and
the golfing itself is so simple and clean,

1453
01:37:14,760 --> 01:37:17,319
like the way that you're making me
feel tonight. It just so long

1454
01:37:17,319 --> 01:37:21,079
as I don't have to meet your
father. It just feels perfect, even

1455
01:37:21,119 --> 01:37:25,720
though it's missing some of the like
the top spin mechanics that we had starting

1456
01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:28,359
in the GameCube games. I believe, you know AA for spin, a

1457
01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:30,840
B for super spin. Even without
that, it kind of reminds me of

1458
01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:35,560
how the golf actually, uh does
feel in the o Geo Turf Masters are

1459
01:37:35,840 --> 01:37:41,079
yeah urf yes, yeah right,
it's a bit like that's that's that's the

1460
01:37:41,159 --> 01:37:45,640
ideal, a Neo Turf Master's RPG
that would be the real deal right there.

1461
01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:51,000
Yeah. I think that description of
not not bogged down by a lot

1462
01:37:51,039 --> 01:37:54,720
of dialogue, I think we probably
could have guessed that based on the fact

1463
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:59,880
that I enjoyed the game. But
it's it's also like my platonic ideal for

1464
01:38:00,079 --> 01:38:02,039
what I would want from going out
learning how to play golf, where it's

1465
01:38:02,039 --> 01:38:05,319
like I'm just gonna go out on
my own, I'm gonna try to get

1466
01:38:05,359 --> 01:38:09,720
better and that occasionally I will challenge
someone who's better than me and see if

1467
01:38:09,720 --> 01:38:11,960
I could take them on and beat
them in golf, and then it's just

1468
01:38:12,039 --> 01:38:14,840
going to go back and you know, kind of go to the next course

1469
01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:16,960
by myself and enjoy it. And
that sounds so pleasant. And I think

1470
01:38:17,039 --> 01:38:19,840
I think that the game that's such
a good job of capturing that right away

1471
01:38:20,399 --> 01:38:24,399
that I really hooked onto that.
So glad you're playing it, Glad you're

1472
01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:29,399
enjoying it. That's that's really fun
to hear anything else. Mike, Yeah,

1473
01:38:29,399 --> 01:38:33,079
I'm Mortal Kombat mythologies. But you
know we've got a lot more about

1474
01:38:33,079 --> 01:38:38,119
the place though. You are going
to be able to submit the sub hour

1475
01:38:38,239 --> 01:38:41,039
run right fifty one minutes you said, yeah, I'll submit that one.

1476
01:38:41,239 --> 01:38:43,439
What does that put you want?
Where does that put you on? Seven?

1477
01:38:43,960 --> 01:38:47,279
Number seven? I want to be
so or emmy for number for top

1478
01:38:47,439 --> 01:38:51,079
five. But the thing is wasn't
in top five. It's not that much

1479
01:38:51,119 --> 01:38:54,960
for them to get to top three. So top top three is the real

1480
01:38:55,640 --> 01:38:58,279
end goal. What's it got?
Top three is when I might be done,

1481
01:38:58,920 --> 01:39:01,039
right, I think, So we'll
see hopefully, Like there's a day

1482
01:39:01,039 --> 01:39:03,479
this week, and so far I
kind of been sneaking runs in here and

1483
01:39:03,560 --> 01:39:06,560
there. It's like one run and
I want to day this week and where

1484
01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:10,760
I can really sit down right,
just do several runs back like six hours,

1485
01:39:10,800 --> 01:39:14,000
like just like play this game and
really try to grind out right,

1486
01:39:14,640 --> 01:39:16,600
very good run and you'll probably I
mean, you'll probably have a good run

1487
01:39:16,640 --> 01:39:18,920
after that, but I bet then
the next time you come back after that

1488
01:39:19,079 --> 01:39:24,800
like long session, you'll get your
best run at that point. All right,

1489
01:39:25,479 --> 01:39:29,039
God, I mean Dragon's Dogma two
is out here pretty soon. I'm

1490
01:39:29,119 --> 01:39:31,359
definitely looking forward to playing that.
Anything else that you're like kind of eyeballing

1491
01:39:31,439 --> 01:39:33,520
right now? Are You're pretty happy
with what you have and you're you know,

1492
01:39:33,560 --> 01:39:35,640
locked and loaded on your switch and
your Steam deck and all that.

1493
01:39:36,239 --> 01:39:40,760
I'm pretty happy with that. I'm
like looking for a dragons on with two,

1494
01:39:40,760 --> 01:39:43,680
but I'm actually kind of looking forward
to some downtime to catch up on

1495
01:39:43,760 --> 01:39:45,760
things like, hey, you know, never got to never got to beat

1496
01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:48,319
Jedi Survivor or FOMP Fancy six.
We'd still like to do both of that.

1497
01:39:48,600 --> 01:39:56,800
So saying here and I do need
to make a point of getting on

1498
01:39:56,840 --> 01:39:59,760
the horn with you all and getting
us back into some more hell divers.

1499
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:01,600
I know, it's so much fun. Yep, it's it's a good time.

1500
01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:05,119
I did some random matches this week
and had a pretty good time with

1501
01:40:05,199 --> 01:40:09,520
that, and I'm like it would
be much better with friends that I'm talking

1502
01:40:09,600 --> 01:40:13,520
to, but it still definitely works. Matching up with random people. But

1503
01:40:13,680 --> 01:40:15,760
I'm like, I do wish I
was just hanging out with the buds,

1504
01:40:15,199 --> 01:40:18,000
So try to make that happen.
I might try to beat Penny's Big Breakaway.

1505
01:40:18,039 --> 01:40:25,079
I'm making progress there. God yeah, and there's a ton I have

1506
01:40:25,159 --> 01:40:30,319
a Touch WWE and I want to
play. It's too much, all right,

1507
01:40:30,359 --> 01:40:32,640
everybody, I'm gonna hit the button. It takes a couple of months

1508
01:40:32,640 --> 01:40:34,119
to go out of here from there, so that means, Mike, I

1509
01:40:34,159 --> 01:40:38,479
don't know. We got planned this
weekend? Anything fun? I think not

1510
01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:42,600
much finally, which is kind of
good. I might see Dune too at

1511
01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:46,600
some point, but I could use
a quiet weekend get and play some video

1512
01:40:46,680 --> 01:40:49,359
games. That's what I want to
do. It would be hard for me

1513
01:40:49,439 --> 01:40:51,800
to get out there. I'm like, but let me know if you go

1514
01:40:51,880 --> 01:40:56,199
see Dune too. I'm looking for
an excuse to go see it, so

1515
01:40:56,399 --> 01:40:59,560
just like loop me in. I
know it probably won't be able to happen,

1516
01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:01,880
but if I that'd be great.
I did stay up late last night

1517
01:41:01,920 --> 01:41:04,359
cleaning the house, so I won't
have to do that this weekend, and

1518
01:41:04,479 --> 01:41:09,239
that's nice. Yeah, yes,
but it was nice. I heard you

1519
01:41:09,319 --> 01:41:12,119
say that and like about how you
felt good about yourself, and I was

1520
01:41:12,159 --> 01:41:15,439
like, God, I want that
for me. I really need to do

1521
01:41:15,560 --> 01:41:19,000
a big clock. I put it
off for like two weeks. In the

1522
01:41:19,039 --> 01:41:23,359
house was just an absolute disaster.
So it had to happen. I have

1523
01:41:23,399 --> 01:41:26,039
a pile of floors in my bedroom. It's not a pile floors, a

1524
01:41:26,119 --> 01:41:28,560
pile of clothes in my bedroom.
It's not of the dirty clothes. It's

1525
01:41:28,640 --> 01:41:32,079
of the clean. Sure, that's
the that's the only marginally better, if

1526
01:41:32,159 --> 01:41:38,199
not worse. So I gotta sort
all that. Yeah, clothes should clean

1527
01:41:38,239 --> 01:41:42,279
themselves. Clean clothes, right,
someone should in vent that. By now,

1528
01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:46,960
fucking Eli Super we have more super
checks. Sh ah. All right,

1529
01:41:47,000 --> 01:41:54,359
Mike read the super chats like Leary, thank you so much, Mikey,

1530
01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:57,920
thank you by Leary. God,
someone's doing their job around here,

1531
01:41:58,239 --> 01:42:00,399
man, all you other assholes in
chats. Actually a bunch of people mentioned

1532
01:42:00,399 --> 01:42:03,039
it in chats. By the way, Gold start for Mikey a fan of

1533
01:42:03,119 --> 01:42:06,039
twenty three. No, we did
that one that the doctor Ryan said that

1534
01:42:06,079 --> 01:42:10,800
one fit, Sir says, is
it just me? Or does Tyler Breeze

1535
01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:15,760
look very brad? Shoe maker coated
on the menu icon for the my GM

1536
01:42:15,840 --> 01:42:19,640
mode in w W twenty K,
twenty two, K twenty four also happy

1537
01:42:19,720 --> 01:42:24,600
belated three eleven day boys. I
will look out for that. When we

1538
01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:28,920
played w what do you think Christian
it does? I was thinking yes,

1539
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:30,399
I was like, oh, this
guy kind of looks like Russia Maker.

1540
01:42:30,640 --> 01:42:34,960
That's crazy the guy, but yeah, he does it. Is it here?

1541
01:42:36,640 --> 01:42:41,399
Nick says a new Locus Pope game
just came out this week. I

1542
01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:45,479
don't know, I will. I
will buy this. It's on My Little

1543
01:42:45,600 --> 01:42:47,039
God. I had it right here
now. Of course I fucking lost it.

1544
01:42:47,560 --> 01:42:55,319
It's on the oh there. It
is the Cranker God game. After

1545
01:42:55,399 --> 01:42:59,039
you play the first one, are
you going to send another one? They

1546
01:42:59,039 --> 01:43:00,119
sent jan one at the same time, so I think they were just doing

1547
01:43:00,159 --> 01:43:02,399
a new They send you that case
for it too, so you don't break

1548
01:43:02,439 --> 01:43:09,560
it again. Yep they did.
Lucas Pop's game is six dollars on the

1549
01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:12,720
store on here. I will get
that because I love Lucas Pope games.

1550
01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:15,079
We were talking about Return of the
Overden, but I will make up to

1551
01:43:15,199 --> 01:43:17,720
it and make it up to him
for not playing his game on the top

1552
01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:21,399
five by buying his game. You
can blame me. Saraface King says Fall

1553
01:43:21,479 --> 01:43:26,600
seventy six is good now actually no
really no, I know it's I know

1554
01:43:26,720 --> 01:43:30,560
it's uh in a pretty good place
now, but Q magic you imagine what

1555
01:43:30,760 --> 01:43:33,920
what we've really gone to Fall seventy
six now, like fuck me, no

1556
01:43:34,039 --> 01:43:39,640
way, Yeah, it's that seems
insane. Do you think there's more active

1557
01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:44,319
players on fallse seventy six than uh
scalling bones right now? We can check

1558
01:43:44,399 --> 01:43:51,119
that right now, check it.
Check seventy six versus Squad Starfield Starfield.

1559
01:43:51,279 --> 01:43:59,399
Wow, Starfield. Oh you're gonna
make like a big expansion for Starfield.

1560
01:43:59,399 --> 01:44:00,399
I wonder what that's going to be
like. Yeah, they've got a ton

1561
01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:04,279
of updates and stuff. Yeah,
absolutely bring super checks white checks that.

1562
01:44:04,479 --> 01:44:10,119
Yeah, well Davis is do not
put rum dumb the dumb dumb too,

1563
01:44:10,239 --> 01:44:12,520
please, Yeah, I don't worry. It didn't make it. Yeah that

1564
01:44:12,640 --> 01:44:14,960
we're caught up there. Thank you. That's a close one. If you

1565
01:44:15,039 --> 01:44:20,359
put that would have been rough.
Thank you. Hitting again. Uh yeah,

1566
01:44:20,439 --> 01:44:25,880
I mean Starfield. I bet Starfield
does have more, but I mean

1567
01:44:25,920 --> 01:44:33,159
how much more honestly he has?
Like Starfield has like five thousand and and

1568
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:39,199
also five thousand like they will.
Yeah, are just right now five thousand,

1569
01:44:39,279 --> 01:44:44,720
five thousand, same. Okay,
hmm, I don't think. I

1570
01:44:44,760 --> 01:44:48,119
don't think it should be that Starfield
has a little bit more and seventy five

1571
01:44:49,159 --> 01:44:53,880
all right, that's great. I
like think if I were to go play

1572
01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:56,560
one of those games right now,
I would would rather play fall Out seventy

1573
01:44:56,600 --> 01:45:00,720
six than Starfield at this point.
I agree. I enjoyed my time with

1574
01:45:00,760 --> 01:45:03,439
Starfield. I did, but I
beat that game, and I don't think

1575
01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:08,039
about, Oh I have stuff unfinished
that I and all the stuff that would

1576
01:45:08,039 --> 01:45:10,840
be possible if I went back there. I just don't think about that game

1577
01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:15,880
in those terms. Yeah, and
I haven't really played football. That's a

1578
01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:17,199
different thing. Well, and I
really want I would, I really want

1579
01:45:17,239 --> 01:45:20,199
still to watch you play fall Out
New Vegas. That still's kind of happen.

1580
01:45:20,479 --> 01:45:24,439
Yes, that does have to happen. God, I mean, do

1581
01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:29,560
that gentlist Jam plays a coach and
we're just gonna play two thousands era like

1582
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:33,000
computer RPGs or you know, Western
RPGs. That'd be fun. Which one

1583
01:45:33,039 --> 01:45:36,119
can I play? I'll play Vampire
the Masquerade or something. Oh that would

1584
01:45:36,119 --> 01:45:40,239
I would love to watch that.
I mean, it would kind of rule

1585
01:45:40,479 --> 01:45:43,000
if games would slow down a little
bit. It would kind of roll to

1586
01:45:43,159 --> 01:45:45,680
go back and play some old games
that I haven't finished before. I would

1587
01:45:46,119 --> 01:45:50,720
adore that. It is like fitting
so much stuff into that. Like today

1588
01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:53,840
was one of those days where it's
like, Okay, work all day,

1589
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:56,640
get all get all this stuff done, go from one thing to the next.

1590
01:45:56,920 --> 01:45:58,920
And as soon as work is done, it's like STEP's got work stuff

1591
01:45:58,960 --> 01:46:00,319
that she needs me to get the
kids out of the house because she was

1592
01:46:00,319 --> 01:46:03,520
like, have an important meeting with
a huge company and it was like they

1593
01:46:03,560 --> 01:46:05,800
can't. You couldn't have kids yelling
in the background. So it's like,

1594
01:46:05,840 --> 01:46:10,159
okay, well I will help you
with that, and then immediately get home,

1595
01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:12,680
get them a bath, and as
soon as that's done, run to

1596
01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:15,199
this And it's like, man,
this is It's kind of what life is

1597
01:46:15,319 --> 01:46:17,600
for me right now at the moment. So if I could get to a

1598
01:46:17,680 --> 01:46:21,840
point where I didn't also have to
juggle five or six new games I wanted

1599
01:46:21,840 --> 01:46:24,960
to play at the same time,
that would be good for me, just

1600
01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:27,399
for a little bit. All right, everybody, till next time. I

1601
01:46:27,399 --> 01:46:41,159
have a good boy, take care
of yourself. So goodbye. I don't

1602
01:46:41,159 --> 01:46:48,319
get horny, I stay horny,
and Dan you can't just say that three

1603
01:46:48,399 --> 01:46:53,520
inches a girl? What Aclar?
It's a clean show. Guys, what

1604
01:46:53,560 --> 01:46:56,760
are you doing here? Did you
get in here? Master Chief comes?

1605
01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:05,880
It's a classic, that's og the
lich don't battles such a stupid ass.

1606
01:47:09,640 --> 01:47:14,079
Mm well that's that's the secret underneath
what I'm saying. Yes, we are

1607
01:47:14,159 --> 01:47:18,039
both very famous for holding back our
opinions. So I'm going to leave that

1608
01:47:18,119 --> 01:47:27,119
in perfect I'm ready. I'm ready. Yep, me too. Actually give

1609
01:47:27,159 --> 01:47:32,119
me one second here. You know
I'm not cut it when I when I

1610
01:47:32,239 --> 01:47:34,159
say like that, you hate it, and I'm going to cut the other

1611
01:47:34,199 --> 01:47:39,640
part. I'm gonna be the funny
one there. Did you put on a

1612
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:43,279
metal gear solid codec filter? That
freaked me out at the beginning because he's

1613
01:47:43,319 --> 01:47:47,000
had like his camera having me weird. Yeah. John Bama was like,

1614
01:47:47,039 --> 01:47:50,199
oh his camera is dying in a
weird way. But now he's just like

1615
01:47:50,319 --> 01:47:55,119
a filter. What do you think
Colonel Campbell sounds us? What do you

1616
01:47:55,199 --> 01:48:00,520
think Colonel Campbell smells like it smells
like a cigar? I think he smells

1617
01:48:00,560 --> 01:48:05,079

cigar. Ready, yep, I'm bring

damn it. He didn't hear me.

1619
01:48:10,720 --> 01:48:15,880

wants to check it out to it's not

1622
01:48:27,359 --> 01:48:30,479

1623
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:33,279
the demo of this because I remembered
how I heard about it. It's a

1624
01:48:33,399 --> 01:48:40,000
Playtonic Friends game. I think it's
well now so Playton's published. Okay,

1625
01:48:40,119 --> 01:48:43,840
man, this looks so goddamn cool. It's really funny. It's a nice

1626
01:48:43,920 --> 01:48:45,920
little game. Especially if this released
that like ten or fifteen bucks, I

1627
01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:50,159
think it's gonna do very well.
That's it for super chats break. I

1628

in another beer. Have a game? Is that bracelet by the way?

1630
01:49:01,760 --> 01:49:04,960
Nice? Probably? Not? But
yeah, do you? I mean?

1631
01:49:05,359 --> 01:49:11,159
Is this a child in neighborhood that
knows you by sight? No? Not

1632
01:49:11,359 --> 01:49:14,279
really, it's a few houses down, But like you, is there anywhere

1633
01:49:14,319 --> 01:49:16,840
where you feel like weird? Like
approaching a kid that at their standards because

1634
01:49:16,880 --> 01:49:18,840
it's a stand and it's out in
front of their house, Like, no

1635
01:49:18,880 --> 01:49:21,439
one's gonna be like, who is
this man talking to a child? I

1636
01:49:21,520 --> 01:49:25,000
mean she was, you know,
selling these things. Yeah, Like normally

1637
01:49:25,039 --> 01:49:27,319
I would not go approach this child. And like, of course, of

1638
01:49:27,399 --> 01:49:31,960
course child. Are you like mister
Manatti in your neighborhood? Dude? Like

was funny. And then the neighbor too

1641
01:49:40,039 --> 01:49:42,960
down the streets who got her was
like, I kind of a bag and

1642
01:49:43,079 --> 01:49:46,079

her. She's yes, Mike, here's

1643
01:49:46,079 --> 01:49:50,479
her dog. Was like, oh, thanks, fucker rude, I'm appreciated.

1644
01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:54,119
Keep vamping. I'm getting set up. I'll just be one more secondized.

1648
01:50:04,720 --> 01:50:09,880
for? Mike mccunch. Mostly actually
like club I think was the big one.

1649
01:50:10,119 --> 01:50:12,880
Was it like T s A or
does a random person just no,

1650
01:50:13,039 --> 01:50:16,439

uh, their partner. I was actually

1651
01:50:16,479 --> 01:50:20,319
at the charge rod station swapping out
my charge Rod. It sounds dirty,

1652
01:50:20,399 --> 01:50:24,520
yeah, but yeah, I was
working with my charge Rod. Yeah,

1653
01:50:25,279 --> 01:50:30,159
we'll have been a bit odd til
I answer Mike mcquonchie questions while being frisked

1654
01:50:30,279 --> 01:50:31,640
or something. I thought I was
embarrassed because, like they said, Mike

1655
01:50:31,720 --> 01:50:35,439
MINAUGHTI, and of course binding media
response again is oh no, somebody who

1656
01:50:35,439 --> 01:50:38,079
knows who I am? I don't
remember them. So I was like,

1657
01:50:38,199 --> 01:50:45,520
hey, goodness, see you,
while you definitely don't know who I am.

1658
01:50:47,119 --> 01:50:53,039
Okay, great, what's up you? Yeah? Do you think they'll

1659
01:50:53,079 --> 01:50:55,640
let you on a plane, fool
mcquantchie gimmick. I don't think so,

1660
01:50:58,199 --> 01:51:00,920
because uh, probably not. I
mean with those spikes. I mean they

1661
01:51:01,039 --> 01:51:04,399
probably would, because the way you're
dressed. I would just assume it's your

1662
01:51:04,439 --> 01:51:11,000
religion. I don't want to get
if you put the mouse on his forehead,

1663
01:51:11,479 --> 01:51:15,479
yeah, I bet they would too, Dan, all right, I

1664
01:51:15,720 --> 01:51:19,359
think we are good to go.
All right, let's get bring it back

01:51:19,399 --> 01:51:25,880

01:51:26,520 --> 01:51:27,800
