WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:26.120
Mmmm, twenty fourteen. It's a
new year, a new year full of

2
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:32.719
new video games. Twenty fourteen more
like twenty snore. Are you gonna be

3
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:36.079
a video game? It's like Halo
Spartan Assault. Halo Spartan Assault, twenty

4
00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:46.159
snore blacks teen Okay, yeah,
yeah, twenty yes, funny core meat

5
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:49.200
teens. You know, I don't
want to be a bummer here, but

6
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:54.039
anybody else feel like twenty fourteen.
It's just a holding period until twenty fifteen.

7
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.000
Twenty fifteen sounds like a year.
Sounds like a year. Yeah,

8
00:00:57.079 --> 00:01:00.359
yeah, in twenty fourteen is just
like lead up to twenty fifteen. All

9
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.679
right, we let's just tread water
and we'll do this week's edition of the

10
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.359
Giant Bomb Cast. All right,
that's what it might be like Star Trek

11
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.079
movies. Weird, like the even
numbers are good. Yeah, let's say

12
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.159
what I was twenty twelve, Like, yeah, I was a banger?

13
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:18.680
Sure was it? I just looked
into light now blind, don't look into

14
00:01:18.680 --> 00:01:19.920
I mean, we can turn the
lights off. You think that would help.

15
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.000
I got that thing back in my
Caravella. Yeah, Hi Jeff Gersman,

16
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.879
Hello, Ali, Welcome to twenty
fourteen. It's great to be here.

17
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:29.560
It's fantastic to be here. I'm
so happy it's twenty fourteen. It's

18
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.359
great that I'm here with Drew Scanlon. Hi, Brad Shoemaker can come as

19
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:40.480
well. Fourteen and introducing and introducing
Brad Shoemaker in a role that will surprise

20
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.640
you. This is when it got
all weird, and twenty fourteen we had

21
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:47.480
to add Brad and yeah, we
had to bring Brad in. Finally became

22
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:51.239
a series regular. Yeah, it
was weird. It's no longer a featured

23
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:53.920
player. Yeah. Yeah, as
arbitrary as the years stuff is, And

24
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:59.200
you know it always does. With
the break, it does feel like wipe

25
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:00.560
as much of that slate this comes
off, you know, it's like a

26
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:04.200
dryer raseboard. Not everything comes off. Yeah, there's a little bit left

27
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:06.519
over and you look at it and
go like fuck, somebody wrote in permanent

28
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:08.240
marker instead of a dry race marker. But most of it came off,

29
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:12.639
and I feel great. I don't
know, man, you're putting servers together

30
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:15.840
and yeah, I took a part
that whole cabinet and put things back in

31
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:19.879
that are different. I'm gonna clean
my desk. I got a hair cut

32
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.159
there you go, yeah, like, that's that's all you can ask for.

33
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:25.800
It's a new year. It's a
new year. Something's happened. You

34
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:30.680
know, my pants still don't fit. Okay, that's that's that's the bummer

35
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.560
to me. There's certain aspects of
last year are still linger. You don't

36
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:39.280
just reset everything. Yeah, life
carries over and enough New Year's days,

37
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:44.120
man add up over the years.
What you know what I'm saying. Yeah,

38
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:47.800
I do. Yes, absolutely,
I'm what I'm saying. Whiteboard compounds

39
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:51.960
every year, which the ship that's
left over, And sometimes every year you

40
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:53.599
got to put a new registration sticker
on your car. And every year you

41
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:57.120
say, this is gonna be a
year I find a razor blade and razor

42
00:02:57.159 --> 00:02:59.840
off all the old stickers. But
then it comes around you just go,

43
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:02.560
oh fuck it and just put the
sticker over the old sticker. Sometimes I

44
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:06.639
take the little license plate holder off. I had to do that this morning.

45
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.639
I had to take the license plate
holder off to get sticker. Say,

46
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:13.159
like, where you bought the car? It does? I hate it?

47
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.800
I hate it. It says worried
about the car, and it's disgusting.

48
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.120
Yeah, buy you one. But
but it was a bitch on the

49
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:23.719
bottom. That's right. It's gonna
say bitch queen queen of the bitches.

50
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.879
If this car is a rock and
queen to the bitches. Yeah, if

51
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:35.199
you can read this, the bitch
fell off, right is that the don't

52
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:39.719
know that? That's bikers would have
that. I think that's their old lady

53
00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:45.080
on the back. That's kind of
funny, kind of or offensive? Well,

54
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:49.080
it's can it can be both?
Yeah, I guess funny then offensive.

55
00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:53.000
It's all about perspective, and if
you can read this in your perspective.

56
00:03:54.400 --> 00:04:05.080
Is fourteen The podcast of Champions returns. When is that on that right

57
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:08.120
after this one? I should listen
to that. Yeah, Heads comes on

58
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:12.560
right after this one. It's coming
up next. Brad records it on his

59
00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:17.160
own. It's his DODA podcasts breaks
down patch changes, Who won Champions?

60
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:20.560
Yeah, which champion is the champion? What are they called? And Doda?

61
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:24.600
Are they called champions? That's a
league thing? Okay, I don't

62
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:29.519
know. Characters, dudes, characters, dudes, heroes. It's ladies and

63
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:36.000
gentlemen. Ancient defenders, yes,
an ancient defenders. All right, Doda's

64
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:40.279
done. It's twenty fourteen, exactly
right. Doda is over. If you

65
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:46.639
wanted to. It's all about that. It's all about Blizz Heroes of the

66
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:49.519
Storm, New Storm. Yeah,
heros of the New Storm. Will you

67
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:55.480
guys play that? I heard someone
someone I have not heard a lot about

68
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:58.920
that game, but someone said it
was like Super stripped down by comparison,

69
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:04.720
and like sounds like it might not
have So here's my thing about video games

70
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:08.480
twenty fourteen. We're gonna get the
thing. Here's the thing. Finally,

71
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:14.600
I don't like games. What got
shops in them? You're very gone too

72
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:17.959
far that aren't persistent shops. And
this ties into what we were saying about

73
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:25.439
Halo Spartan Assault earlier, because the
shop is not persistent in DODA. What's

74
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:28.839
a persistent shops? Like if I
buy an item, I want to have

75
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:30.240
it forever. I don't like this
idea of like I need to buy stuff

76
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:32.639
out of store in a certain order
and do it every single match this same

77
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.439
way. Like I didn't like Counterstrike
for the same reason because at the start

78
00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:39.120
of every round it's like I gotta
buy stuff like it was. It's not

79
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:43.000
an insurmountable hurdle, but it was
enough. At the beginning of me starting

80
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:45.360
to play Counterstrike, I was like, man, fuck this, I don't

81
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:46.800
want to think about what kind of
just give me the guns. Oh I

82
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:48.920
can't afford the gun I like to
eat, fool, What the fuck am

83
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.680
I doing? I'm gonna go play
Quake because that has the gun I really

84
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:55.839
like to use. You still have
to pick up the rocket launch for every

85
00:05:55.879 --> 00:06:00.519
time. That's fine, though there's
no money monetary transaction. Feels like I'm

86
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:04.040
earning a rocket launcher by going and
getting it yet, right, yeah?

87
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:09.920
Fuck So you don't like So that's
the whole concept of the shop and the

88
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:13.000
courier stuff in Dota. I mean, granted, there are there's a long

89
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.319
list of things in Doda that make
me not want to play Doda, but

90
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:19.759
that is that is definitely one of
the things. Well, with that many

91
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:26.279
playable characters, I mean they all
use different items, so they're very they're

92
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:29.040
God, there's like maybe three items
in the whole game that like every single

93
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.360
character can use effective. Then they
should just have a straight up regular upgrade

94
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:35.399
tree for those characters that includes those
items and eliminate the shops, shouldn't they.

95
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:39.040
I mean that's just donell. But
getting to the shop getting the items

96
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:41.600
as part of the you know,
that's part of the push and pull.

97
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:45.439
That's part of the But isn't it
a dumb part of the push and pull?

98
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:48.279
Because you know you can you can
zone people out by Yeah, sure

99
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:51.519
I can. You know, it's
it's like math control. It's like preventing

100
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:57.279
someone from getting the all right,
stopping somebody from getting their items, can

101
00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:59.680
you know give you a huge advantage? All right? That's no, Okay,

102
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.680
totally fine. I just don't like
that game. I don't. I

103
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.560
don't know. I thought I saw
that Heroes of the Storm doesn't have items.

104
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:11.240
Yes, so that is what someone
wrote me and said, hey,

105
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:13.720
are you gonna play this game?
Because it doesn't have a shop or items

106
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:15.759
or any of that bullshit, and
team experience is shared and there's no last

107
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:19.120
hits, and so it just sounds
like I was making like just they're taking

108
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:24.279
out any nuance and just going like, any idiot can play this fucking game

109
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:28.319
that's super dumbed down, even next
to League, which removes mechanics from DODA.

110
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.000
You know, that's that's crazy.
So I don't know that. Again,

111
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.040
that is just a person asking me
if I was going to play that

112
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:36.360
game, and then listening a bunch
of things that make it sound like they

113
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:41.680
dumbed it down. Hell of So
so what's the verdict? I don't know.

114
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.199
Like with those things make you try, it's still an RTS without the

115
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:48.639
RTS bass building stuff in my eyes, So that's sort of what if?

116
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:51.040
Okay, here's another way to look
at it. What if it was an

117
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:56.120
RTS mixed with quake. What if
it was an RTS that was just about

118
00:07:56.199 --> 00:08:01.120
killing other people playing the game?
I don't like no, because I don't

119
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.879
I don't like, uh caring about
units in an RTS style game. I

120
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.600
like to build swarms of them and
if they die, great, I don't

121
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:13.879
fucking care. Why didn't like Warcraft
three hero units are bullshit? What except

122
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:18.399
for Jimmy Rayner, there's an exception
that every to every rule, jim Rainer,

123
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.560
what if it were one how many
people on the side? Five?

124
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:24.839
So what if you five guys spawn
and you know they have the hero five

125
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.399
guys spawn and the creeps go.
But when you go to attack another player,

126
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:33.080
it zooms in and becomes like a
fighting game and then you just the

127
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:35.200
two of you guys have like a
fighting match. So it's Dota. So

128
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:37.799
okay, all right, let me
wrap my mind around this. So it's

129
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:43.639
r CON but instead of a chess
board, it's like whatever, an RTS

130
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.480
matt whatever, the doda, whatever
the DODA is. Yeah, so say

131
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:50.159
like moral Kombat, right, like
Scorpion and everybody's spawns on this side,

132
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:54.360
and then the other guys, like
you know, Johnny Kate spawns on the

133
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:56.879
side. But then when they meet, you know, you kill the minions

134
00:08:56.919 --> 00:08:58.759
or whatever that are fighting in the
middle, and then when you two meet,

135
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.399
it just turns into a moral combat
match and the other people who are

136
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.840
watching just see like an overhead of
that ship happening in the real timy Like,

137
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.000
but you're in a side fighting,
would you play then? I don't

138
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:13.720
know. Maybe, I don't know. I'd give that a shot because that

139
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:16.519
sounds fucking ridiculous. But they didn't
have to buy a spear, And I

140
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:20.279
like Arkon if you're if you're a
Scorpion, no all right, no you

141
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:24.559
have to save about money? Yeah, I love Arkon. They remade it.

142
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:28.559
I heard it was that that was
not so good, like fan remake.

143
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:33.559
Yeah, I don't know why.
Well, it's I think just conceptually

144
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.759
that was a game very much of
its era, and you know, like

145
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:41.080
the action side of Arkon. You
know, modern fighting games and stuff like

146
00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:45.240
that have gone off in a really
crazy direction. And did you ever play

147
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:48.960
the Arkon equivalent that they did for
Mortal Kombat? No on, It was

148
00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:52.120
like a PS two Xbox era like
they did Chess combat or whatever. That

149
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:56.120
was just like Mortal Kombat characters on
a chess board and the fights were fights.

150
00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:58.360
Wait, which they made Arkon?
Was that built into one of the

151
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:03.279
main cont releases? Yeah, okay, yeah, I vaguely remember back when

152
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:05.399
they were making like fucking cart racing
games in NKA and all sort of stuff,

153
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:07.080
like they just straight up made our
camp. Yeah, I think I

154
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:11.200
remember that. I forget which one
that was. It was Deception, I

155
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.279
don't know whatever. Those all those
games kind of run together as games.

156
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:20.039
I promising there were some cool things
about those games, but not in a

157
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:24.360
way that stands out in any way
today. Yeah, what if you met

158
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:26.200
in the middle and then you have
like a random like Wai to ware style

159
00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:28.240
thing came up, and then maybe
one's a cart race and you got a

160
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:31.080
race around that map while everybody else
is just fighting. Yeah, all right,

161
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:35.799
like a Mario party Mobi. Yeah, so it's just when you meet

162
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:39.279
on the map and any game occurs, and that determines what happening between you

163
00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:41.919
two guys and everybody else who's watching
from the top ten view. Just he's

164
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:45.720
like two cards, yeah, you
know, riding around in a circle.

165
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:48.000
Okay, I think DODA needs more
weird mods, like I want to go

166
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:56.080
into a roll the Dice server DODA. Yeah, right, first person shooter

167
00:10:56.159 --> 00:11:01.039
mode DODA. You can you can
want to to mod that makes it so

168
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.600
okay. So you're this silent dude
with a crow bar, right, and

169
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:07.360
there are some alien dudes, and
there's this guy who looked astensibly works for

170
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.120
the government but you don't really know, and he's always talking to you d

171
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:16.799
man. Yeah, these are all
great ways to make DODA more accessible.

172
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:22.000
Yeah, the International four is going
to all be played in this mode.

173
00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:28.759
It's very exciting. The b KB
is now crow bar always was. Oh,

174
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:33.879
well, you're the thing that stops
other people from using stuff on you,

175
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:39.120
the crow bar. Yeah, the
crow bar. You're the crow bar.

176
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.039
You're of the crow bar. Wait
a minute, are we making predictions

177
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:46.480
already? So you're the crow bar? What is it? You're the horse?

178
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.519
Uh? I think so? Yeah? There you go. Gross.

179
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:54.320
Yeah, well not yet in like, yeah, two weeks, two and

180
00:11:54.320 --> 00:12:03.000
a half weeks. I think I
think literary New Years First, the monkey,

181
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:05.360
Snake, I think spake. I'm
pretty sure it's snake, my brother

182
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:11.240
for Christmas. You're the cat on
vinyl, but out of season, not

183
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.919
the right year for it. Yeah, that's bad. I gotta wait a

184
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:18.679
long time to play it. Fair
enough, at least you're ready. Yeah,

185
00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:22.799
we're back. Okay, after a
couple of weeks out of the office,

186
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:30.679
we're back in this office. The
stuff that deadens the sound as still

187
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.879
on the walls here, but a
lot of the lamp is going The lamp

188
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:35.360
disappeared. Wait where to go?
I don't know, but it didn't work

189
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:37.639
when we left. And this monitor
that used to sit on the other side

190
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:41.559
of this monitor that I'm looking into, that used to show whenever I looked

191
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:45.559
on the TriCaster. See I'm watching
like c nets CS coverage over here,

192
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:48.200
and it's some guy wearing an ear
piece in the wrong ear because he's turned

193
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:52.919
to the way that you just see
all your piece. You think somebody would

194
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:54.000
get mad if we put that thing
back where it was. Well, I

195
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:56.320
don't think it was that. No, No, it was another monitor.

196
00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:00.440
Oh wait, there's no this This
monitor has always been here that I can

197
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.320
see. The one that was facing
us, one was facing away. I

198
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:05.679
don't know, maybe they took it
too CS. I don't know, maybe

199
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.200
maybe Yeah. Like I got up
here and realized, like there's no one

200
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:11.440
sitting in any these desks, and
I was like, geez, did we

201
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:16.960
come back early or like realize like
maybe all these people are at CS is

202
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:22.000
gonna come back all curve damn it, stupid ass Curve TV bullshit. But

203
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:26.960
they look fancy. Man. I
don't know. I really feel for those

204
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:31.240
people having to cover CES. Oh
you know, it's like, do you

205
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:33.720
have to come back from your holiday
break right into covering a trade show?

206
00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:37.840
I don't know. What's the ideal
think about it? As well? It

207
00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:39.600
depends on how hard you cover the
show, right I mean, if you're

208
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:45.080
there and you're like really working like
an E three style workload, then yeah,

209
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:46.799
that's that's what I'm saying. What
I'm saying is if what if we

210
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:50.200
were at E three right now,
yeah, that would be a bummer.

211
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:52.440
But if we were at CES right
now, we would be looking at TV's

212
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:58.519
for five minutes and then just drunk
somewhere right take a few meetings, and

213
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.399
then there's so little for a to
do for game stuff at cs. I'm

214
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:03.960
talking to fun, I'm talking about
people in the tech industry, yeah,

215
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:07.919
who do have to work that thing. But even that, like the are

216
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:11.039
there that meaning annoucements anymore? Like
Apple holds its own stuff, like so

217
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:16.200
many companies hold their own events for
the products that really matter that it seems

218
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:18.600
like this is just literally now the
show where like, hey, the TV's

219
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:22.679
are curved now, all right,
yeah, see you next year. I

220
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.559
had a good time when I went
with Tested. Yeah, we had a

221
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:31.240
lot of people that a lot of
editors and shooters. Yeah, it was.

222
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:33.440
It was editing for most of it. I think it is weird looking

223
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:37.200
at like you knows, keeping an
eye on the verge or something like how

224
00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:41.919
much of the actual news at that
thing is targeted at stuff nobody you know

225
00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:43.720
we'll ever buy yep, you know, yeah, like those like those ten

226
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:48.600
thousand dollars curved old tv s.
I think like this for like five years

227
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.879
maybe until it well, but every
every year the big headlines are all the

228
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:54.720
things that are like oh it's prototype
or oh it's twenty grand. You know,

229
00:14:56.120 --> 00:14:58.159
it's fun to read though it is, but it's at the same time

230
00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:01.759
like I would like to read about
things like it actually, but CES has

231
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:05.159
like always been that way because when
I was going in like ninety two or

232
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:09.039
ninety two, there were definitely TVs
that were there that you looked at and

233
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:11.799
just went like, what, that's
not a square. But in those cases,

234
00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:15.120
they weren't even selling those TVs.
It was like Sony was there.

235
00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:18.000
Its like here's it was like a
concept car, but a TV. It

236
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:20.840
was like, look at this thing, like, oh, it's a three

237
00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:24.399
D hologram television. That's really great. When's it coming out? Never?

238
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:28.720
Oh cool, it's really great.
Thanks for bringing it's the only one that

239
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:31.200
exists in the world right now.
Yeah, oh well when you get him

240
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:35.279
mass produced these never But I find
that more exciting than somebody showing me what

241
00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:37.559
I can buy. Well, I
guess I like, yeah, because when

242
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:41.000
we can buy is just as boring
too. Yeah, well that's what I

243
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:43.759
mean. I wish TV is slightly
nicer than the one I just bought.

244
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:46.879
That's what I'm saying. I wish
there were interesting things that were available for

245
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:50.600
I just think that tech is boring
now, maybe like as soon as cell

246
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:56.720
phones got boring again, like over
the last year or two. I don't

247
00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:58.960
know about you guys, but I'm
fucking bored to death with the iPhone,

248
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:03.320
and I still find new phones exciting. I saw my four G four US.

249
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:07.360
Yeah, you know the stuff they
keep doing to Android like a great

250
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:10.720
Like I don't really want a bigger
phone. It's now like the like the

251
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:15.639
apps are not getting that much more
interesting that I'm like, it's not the

252
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.519
early days of the iPhone three G
going like I'm downloading five apps a day

253
00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:22.440
because there's so much it's a land
rush and there's all this crazy shit and

254
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:25.039
everyone's coming up with new ways to
use this. Now it's like, no,

255
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:27.639
the the tech is pretty established,
like what you can do with it,

256
00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:30.440
what people want to do with it, So just install the Twitter app

257
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.799
and you're good, Like it doesn't
matter. I could buy a Windows phone

258
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:37.240
at this point. Well, it's
like getting your map app, yeah,

259
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:42.639
my map app ap yeah, and
your social networks and then you're done.

260
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:45.879
Yeah, so that's why I have
an upgrade. I should upgrade for the

261
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:51.279
LTE stuff. That sounds pretty cool, but uh, I haven't really felt

262
00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:52.559
the need to drop, you know, whatever it is. Two hundred three

263
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:56.360
hundred bucks. Yeah, well at
this point, I mean it probably would

264
00:16:56.360 --> 00:16:57.840
be less than that because you for
the new one. Well, if you

265
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:02.720
want a new new one, I
guess. Yeah, but because my screen

266
00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:07.880
isn't my screen isn't cracked. Yeah, I don't know my battery lass about

267
00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:11.440
twenty minutes. I would love to
see a big new generational shift in phone

268
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:18.559
technology or just not just some something
man like instead of phone. Yes,

269
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:19.759
a phone that I can roll up? No, it like it can't be

270
00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:22.319
form factor. I can't be anything
like that as to be like, here's

271
00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:26.319
a paradigm shift. Okay, well, what do you want to do?

272
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:27.079
You don't even know what you want. I don't know what I want to

273
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:30.759
do. I want someone to show
up and go like, here's a fucking

274
00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:33.240
new thing that's going to blow your
fucking mind. It's called the Yeah,

275
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:38.559
no, that's not Google ass.
I don't know how reasonable is it to

276
00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:42.920
ease? I mean, so what
you're talking about is like the classic example

277
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:47.319
is the removal of all buttons from
phones, right, like the move to

278
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:49.920
nothing but a touch screen, right, I'm sure, I guess, but

279
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:56.759
that in like in that facilitated people
doing new things with this device. Well,

280
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.920
you know, how how reasonable is
it to expect something like that every

281
00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:02.799
safe? Totally unreasonable? Yeah,
Like I don't like, I don't.

282
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:06.039
I just don't think anybody's figured it
out yet obviously, but I'm but I

283
00:18:06.200 --> 00:18:08.519
like by that same token. And
that's why it feels like we're in this

284
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:14.119
weird lully tech wise where it's just
like CS just seems like like why would

285
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:15.160
you go to that? Well,
what about like Google Glass? Like what

286
00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:18.799
if they integrate your phone into like
Google Glass? Wear glass feels like yeah,

287
00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:23.880
like wearables, Yeah, seem potentially
very interesting, but it's potentially interesting

288
00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:27.599
since I was watching Beyond two thousand
and the nineties, right, Yeah,

289
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:30.000
but then they could do apps that's
just like, hey, this is facial

290
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:33.039
recognition, and this will you're looking
at somebody will tell you who it is,

291
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:37.319
look up their Facebook profile and be
like, hey, this is whatever

292
00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:41.119
whatever scan this, dude. Sounds
like a fucking nightmare. Yeah, like

293
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:45.160
people wearing I think I've said it's
war wear, like QR codes on your

294
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:48.880
shirt and then it just scans those
and like people are walking billboards and pops

295
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:51.759
up and just like a picture of
my balls or something, and like hah,

296
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:55.039
you scan like R. I want
to wear I want to be paid

297
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:57.440
to wear a QR code. And
for every person who looks at me while

298
00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:03.319
learning wearing the device, an AD
shows up over my face and then I

299
00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:06.680
get paid and it's like a little
counter. So it's on me to be

300
00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:10.640
seen and I have to get out
there and be seen to make money.

301
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:15.279
And that's why I took all these
hostages. Get a big cardboard arrow spinner

302
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:22.000
around behind you, over your head, whatever the highest tech station forget to

303
00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:26.119
forget. They've removed humans from the
arrow holding loop. Have you seen any

304
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:30.279
of the h in Pedaluma. I've
seen a couple of them. In Pedaluma.

305
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:34.839
There is literally a mannequin, just
a basic standard mannequin. It is

306
00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.200
a lady mannequin that they have put
a blonde wig on and dressed up in

307
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:44.559
some clothes that look like not like
appropriate for how cold it is right now,

308
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:47.680
and then they have put an arrow
in front of it, and the

309
00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:52.039
arrow is hooked up to a system
of motors and pulleys that makes the arrow

310
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:56.480
kind of move around, shimmy around
a little bit like is she holding it?

311
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:02.680
They took the no, No,
it is a mannequin. Not at

312
00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:06.319
all attached to this arrow that is
moving, and then it says, like,

313
00:20:07.599 --> 00:20:14.119
fuck, they're selling printer parts or
something. That's I saw another one

314
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:17.359
that has it is it is an
arrow with a giant and part of the

315
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:21.519
cardboard cutout at the arrow is this
woman's smiling face and she's huge, she's

316
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:23.720
not even person's sized at this point, but it's just like from her like

317
00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:32.359
chest up above this arrow and the
whole thing is moving. What is exactly

318
00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:37.480
like that's They had to find cheap
advertising, so they said, well,

319
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:41.559
at some point, rather than going
out and buying real advertising space and doing

320
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:45.519
a real advertising type purchase, we're
going to pay a person to stand here.

321
00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:48.720
And it's cheaper for us to pay
this person minimum wage or whatever,

322
00:20:49.000 --> 00:20:52.000
better than just sticking a sign in
the ground. Exactly, it's gonna catch

323
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.359
people eyes, people's eyes. And
then at some point someone said, wait

324
00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.400
a minute, we don't need a
person, but what kind of boring ass

325
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:03.759
neighborhood you living in? And that
thing isn't completely defaced? Yeah, every

326
00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:08.440
time I see it, I think
about going out and cutting the man your

327
00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.039
face on it? Yeah, Like, how is that not immediate? Like

328
00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:18.880
the first day I don't know.
It's been cold kids. In these video

329
00:21:18.920 --> 00:21:21.720
games, you're not getting out there
causing trouble. It's true. Yeah,

330
00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:25.279
they're definitely not like they used to. But it is. It's a weird

331
00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:30.759
recursive thing like it's it's like video
game paintball or something. Right, it's

332
00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:33.240
like a simulation of a simulation.
Yeah, whatever. It's like sales on

333
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:40.160
an aircraft carrier. Dumb. Yeah, well, it's a good for emergencies.

334
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:44.400
Emp knocks out everything. You gotta
get sales, Yeah, hoyst sales.

335
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:48.279
I played a lot of Assassin's Creed. We'll see then. Yeah,

336
00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:55.319
I spend my vacation. Well did
you defacing myself? What did you deface

337
00:21:55.359 --> 00:22:00.000
yourself with over the past couple of
weeks, respecting your temple, Yeah,

338
00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:06.319
Assassin's Creed Okay, I spent many
hours in that game. You beat it?

339
00:22:06.599 --> 00:22:10.319
I did, at the cost of
like sixty or seventy hours whatever was.

340
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:11.960
Every time I would sit down I
had video game time, I'd put

341
00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:17.400
up Assassin's Scream and go hunt around
for chests or find some animus. Fragments

342
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:19.799
are out there, truth is out
there. That game is jam packed full

343
00:22:19.839 --> 00:22:23.039
of like Moore, could you get
out of the animus and find all the

344
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.960
stuff, the QR codes and stuff
there. Yeah, I did hacked a

345
00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:30.640
bunch of computers. I didn't like
that hacking game that much. But there's

346
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.359
a lot of really interesting dumb stuff
in that game too, uncover and really

347
00:22:34.440 --> 00:22:40.079
long stuff like long audio logs where
you're sitting there listening for five six minutes

348
00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:45.200
just with a playhead moving across the
screen. People, I assume the animus

349
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:48.240
fragments have story attached. Well,
I don't know about that. No,

350
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:51.559
I don't think so. Those are
pure collectibles. I think so, but

351
00:22:51.640 --> 00:22:56.799
you know, a lot of it
since it's I'm trying to think if I

352
00:22:56.799 --> 00:22:59.359
can talk about this without spoiling too
much, but you know, it's up

353
00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:02.680
Sergo would be soft at that point
or whatever. And yeah, they're putting

354
00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:06.680
out Assassin's Creed games. Uh wait
a minute, is Ubi Soft and Entity

355
00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:08.759
as such in the world of Assassins
Street four or I thought, yeah,

356
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:14.240
I thought ob Stergo Entertainment was supposed
to be the standard they with, so

357
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:18.279
they are. Yeah. They put
out Liberation, the hottest hot game.

358
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:22.960
It was one of their Animus products. Okay, Ubisoft put that out in

359
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:26.759
the world of assassin's creed. Okay, I thought ob Stargo was like I

360
00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:29.640
said, it was, would be
soft there. So you know they had

361
00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:32.640
the Stargo logo after the UI.
I can tell. I can tell we

362
00:23:32.680 --> 00:23:34.839
took a break because I forgot if
it was Ubi softer, you'd be soft

363
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:38.480
again, you'll be or not you
bub you'll be for sure? Is it

364
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.720
you be? I think it's you. I don't care. I can say,

365
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:48.000
get that little bit that uh Eve
gimme and the other guy, the

366
00:23:48.079 --> 00:23:52.240
Rayman guy, so whche Michelle And
yeah, they did that little sketch in

367
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:56.759
like a like three twenty eleven or
something. Yeah, so now I remember

368
00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:03.599
it's always you'd be there be would
be or not would be you'd be soft.

369
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:07.799
And so you got a lot of
fun stuff that's like, uh,

370
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:11.720
the templars you killed in other games, they have like portraits you can unlock

371
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:17.519
that are like family Man, like
this guy was a real leader and cut

372
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:18.920
down in the prime of his life, and you know he was you know,

373
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.079
red Rigo Borgia was like he was
gonna set the world right and cut

374
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:26.960
down by you know, assassins,
and which is pretty fun. And they

375
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:30.880
all have names family man, true
Hero. That stuff is fun. You

376
00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:36.839
find audio locks from like Subject zero
and like Subject one and all these people

377
00:24:37.160 --> 00:24:41.839
and they're just you find his cool
flyer that has the animus from like the

378
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:45.799
seventies, eighties, nineties and like
different advertisements for it, and like the

379
00:24:45.839 --> 00:24:49.440
eighties one is all this like weird
data bank of computers and the shitty looking

380
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:52.839
chair. Uh, this is something
really fun, goofy stuff in there.

381
00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:57.200
That is like from the Absturgo perspective
what they've been trying to do. Uh,

382
00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:00.839
and and set the world right.
So from here, like how do

383
00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:03.519
you how do you want it to
play out? Do you want they open

384
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:07.279
up a lot of doors in this
one? I mean there's a potential there

385
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:12.839
for like quite literally, what if
that is the right? It's weird,

386
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:17.880
It's super weird. What if from
here on out the Templars really are like

387
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:21.440
not just you know them reframing it
this way and you can like as a

388
00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:22.640
kind of a wink and nod,
But I was like, oh wait,

389
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:25.759
no, the Templar is actually worth
the good guys all along. I mean

390
00:25:25.799 --> 00:25:29.759
they don't necessarily paint them as as
as great people, but they are.

391
00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:33.519
They're pushing their agenda, sure,
and there's some other funny stuff. Since

392
00:25:33.559 --> 00:25:38.079
it's all marketing material. They have
these trailers for like et Ceo and alta

393
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:44.799
Year, which are like they're like
fake focus groups trailers and they go through

394
00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:48.000
like you know, et Ceo is
a bit of a you know, a

395
00:25:48.079 --> 00:25:51.599
ladies man, and this isn't going
to play well with some of our crowd,

396
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:55.759
and we should avoid using this property
for future endeavors. Like alta Year

397
00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:59.279
was a little brooding and like,
uh, you know, lecherous and like

398
00:25:59.519 --> 00:26:02.480
he's not the one you know really
well. I think it was more at

399
00:26:03.799 --> 00:26:07.200
Connor's got his own problems and like, let's not develop a game based on

400
00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:11.000
that character. Probably had to refrain
from talking too much shit about Connor.

401
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:15.680
Those wounds are probably still pretty fresh. Yeah, but it's in there,

402
00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:18.359
like all those guys, you know, because they didn't make games of those

403
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:21.839
in that universe at all, so
they're all like, let's avoid all these

404
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:26.839
bloodlines. I'm like, but they
make this great trailer you find kind of

405
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:30.559
late in the game, uh,
for the game you're making for the pirates

406
00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:33.440
one that think it's called like I
figure what it's called, like Pirates of

407
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:38.200
the Nightmare or something something dumb and
it's just the lady I think presents it

408
00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:41.079
to you. Be like, you
should see the new trailer we put together

409
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:45.279
with your footage, and it's all
like in a world of pirates, are

410
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.079
you gonna be the ones to save
the day? And just painting all the

411
00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:52.880
stuff you've been playing and the cut
scenes you've seen into this, like Michael

412
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:56.680
Bay is crazy, explosion boats just
blowing out of the water. What do

413
00:26:56.680 --> 00:26:59.880
you think I think it'll sell?
That's it's pretty funny. I really enjoyed

414
00:26:59.880 --> 00:27:03.680
it. Yeah, the gameplay stuff, uh, once I collected everything and

415
00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:07.799
started steamrolling into the story stuff.
Like Patrick is right, they still do

416
00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:11.599
just jam in the same mission types
and that can get a bit boring.

417
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:15.119
But I really enjoyed the rapper they
put on. I think they took it

418
00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:21.720
in a great direction post Assassin's Creed
three with you know the Desmond stuff.

419
00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:26.599
It's really weird Desmond stuff in there, super weird. In this game,

420
00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:30.920
you find a movie and again this
isn't really spoilers, be find she might

421
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.319
not find it, but you find
a movie. There's a lot of them,

422
00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:38.359
uh, basically autopsying Desmond and taking
his organs out and stuff like at

423
00:27:38.359 --> 00:27:41.160
the scene where he's dead because they're
storing it and they're gonna, you know,

424
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:45.559
use the sample. It's like really
weird. Uh. And then and

425
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:48.119
they don't go into anything which I
thought they were going to have, like

426
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:51.599
Desmond's in the Machine Man and he's
like still alive, but because it's like

427
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:56.839
kind has some of the Desmond with
the other subject or whatever sixteen or something,

428
00:27:57.319 --> 00:28:00.160
but it's it's it's in interesting.
I don't know, I found that

429
00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:03.599
whole thing interesting. But they do, like you said, they do open

430
00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:07.440
up the door in that game for
like there's one other document that just lists

431
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:11.920
everybody in between, like et CEO
and like Connor that's like French Revolution,

432
00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:15.039
like we here are other avenues we
can explore this product like a bunch of

433
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.960
other stuff that just goes down and
you're like, sure, okay, why

434
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:22.039
not, let's just keep going?
Yeah, I know. Fun. I

435
00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:23.079
don't know if they can manage it
an on an annual schedule, but I

436
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:26.480
would love to see them jump from
time period the time period every year at

437
00:28:26.480 --> 00:28:30.559
this point, you know. Yeah, I like, like if they do

438
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:33.960
another year of Caribbean Pirates with the
same style of sailing and boat up parades

439
00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:36.799
and stuff, like that, like
that's going to be a real shame.

440
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:38.640
Yeah, there was one in that
document again that just goes through everything where

441
00:28:38.759 --> 00:28:41.039
like I said, like French Revolution, there's like a Wild West one like

442
00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:44.599
that would be fun. I don't
need to climb buildings that much anymore.

443
00:28:44.599 --> 00:28:48.880
They've gotten so far away from the
kind of like tumb raider ish uh you

444
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:51.799
know, yeah, climb to the
top of this Prince of Persia. Like

445
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:53.000
Marylin was all like, oh,
this is kind of like Prince of Persia,

446
00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:56.880
like that's gone at this point.
But if whatever, I'll be a

447
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:00.279
gun slinger and don't even have to
climb a building. It's fine, give

448
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:03.519
me a horse. Again. I
don't know about these Old West stuff is

449
00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:06.759
you know, it's probably wouldn't work. It could be its redemption. Yeah,

450
00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:11.359
open world, but that's mostly what
I played. But I also do

451
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:15.319
you know with with in four,
you know, with all the like hunting

452
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:17.960
and skinning and stuff, like maybe
some Old West skinning, maybe they can

453
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:21.160
find a way to make that fun. Yeah that's impossible. That's an impossible

454
00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:22.960
dream. Well, all I gotta
do is just you know, position your

455
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:26.440
horse right up for the animal and
then you won't see that animation. It's

456
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:30.720
the hunting and as dumb, but
it's it's kind of fun, don't It's

457
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:33.880
so fast you don't even need to
do it right. Yeah. You can

458
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:37.799
also buy all the materials at a
store. So I never got the white

459
00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:41.240
whales. They never showed up for
me because I guess that's one of the

460
00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:45.279
network things, like oh, it's
one of the yeah, yeah friends,

461
00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:48.680
whatever's, but you just buy it. I had tons of money by the

462
00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:52.759
end, and I was a badass
in my boat. I had like ninety

463
00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:56.759
thousand cannons on the side just roll
up on the side of a ship and

464
00:29:56.839 --> 00:30:00.960
just unload in it and just it
just like a nucle bomb just went off,

465
00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:04.119
which is pretty fun. I can't
find anywhere in that game to see

466
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:07.440
how like how many crew members you
have or who your crew members are,

467
00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:12.000
Like there's like a bar. There
are so many menus and sub menus and

468
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:15.640
different types of commodities in that game
that like there's just like a little bar,

469
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:18.519
Like Okay, it just has like
the filled up with full crew or

470
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:22.240
not full crew. Okay, maybe
maybe I placed too much importance on it,

471
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:25.480
but I barely dabbed on the game, to be fair. I still

472
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:26.799
haven't played that much of it,
but I just did my first like kind

473
00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:30.440
of random boat takeover yesterday. You
are the crew in that point, okay,

474
00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:33.200
and when I you know, I
jumped over there and like in the

475
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:36.279
middle of the battle. Every time
when of your crew dies, it will

476
00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:37.079
be like minus one crew, And
I was like, oh, I don't

477
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:40.559
want to lose crew members. Fuck
that, Like is that not? That's

478
00:30:40.599 --> 00:30:41.720
nothing to work? Come up in
the water. They're like, yeah,

479
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:45.559
I know. I very quickly found
a guy drowning and saved him and he

480
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:48.200
became You find that all the time. So are they not named? Are

481
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:52.839
they not? You have they completely
lost the mechanic then from the last like

482
00:30:53.039 --> 00:30:56.519
no, you have three of the
kind of assassins, says Fleet, Which

483
00:30:56.519 --> 00:31:00.559
is which is that? And that's
the online stuff that if you have more

484
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:03.200
than a hundred friends on a PlayStation
platform, you don't get to see it

485
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:03.960
all. That sucks. You don't
get to see it at all. It

486
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.880
doesn't like if there's a bug with
you play where because like the online stuff

487
00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:14.000
is kind of optional, like you
could speed up your friends, uh convoys.

488
00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:17.319
Is that the same framework though of
like instead of assassins that you train

489
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:19.960
up you have other boats you so
you get to a point I don't think

490
00:31:21.000 --> 00:31:25.039
you're there yet where you can repair
the jackdaw. When you take over a

491
00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:26.960
ship, you can. That's all
I can do right now. So you'll

492
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:30.200
get a point where you can add
to Kenway's fleet and you steal that ship

493
00:31:30.279 --> 00:31:33.599
and then you could send it out
and then you send them on missions.

494
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:36.400
Yeah, just like okay, you
just get golden stuff. So I guess,

495
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:38.440
like when I launched that game,
it's just it refuses to connect to

496
00:31:38.440 --> 00:31:41.759
you play at all. Oh wow. So at the top of the game,

497
00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:47.559
ye oh boy, you're playing on
the PS four. Yeah, apparently

498
00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:51.720
PS three has the same issue.
I've never had that problem. How many

499
00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:56.359
friends? Yeah, like four,
that's fine. So it's it's literally if

500
00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.359
you're over one hundred, it breaks. So I could remove friends until I

501
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:01.960
get out of the list. I
don't know. I'm at the cap now.

502
00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:06.799
Oh you are? Yeah, nice, So just wipe and start over.

503
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:13.200
Yeah, play that prestige my friends
list and there is no single button

504
00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:15.880
way to clear your friends list.
No, I mean adding adding those two

505
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:21.559
thousand friends was a hassle. Removing
them will probably even more of one.

506
00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:28.440
But too many friends so many friends. It's a good number, but not

507
00:32:28.519 --> 00:32:30.240
at the expensive like system performance stuff, and they're there are a lot of

508
00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:36.559
games that just don't seem to handle
it particularly well, like uh like sass

509
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:38.640
screen. Call of Duty has a
thing in the corner that tells you how

510
00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:42.039
many of your friends are online at
a given time. That number is almost

511
00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:45.799
always zero for me, which I
guess it is possible. Actually maybe that

512
00:32:45.799 --> 00:32:51.200
no one's playing Call of Duty,
but I don't know. That seems unlikely.

513
00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:55.279
Yeah, yeah, that that the
Yes, they need to make some

514
00:32:55.400 --> 00:33:00.720
changes to the way the PlayStation that
we're handles friends who new consoles coming Yeah

515
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:01.720
okay, well yeah may when the
new console comes out, like and raise

516
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:06.119
the friend limit. That'll probably solve
the problem out of the Yeah, what

517
00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:09.440
do you think we'll see firmware updates
already has already it's already been I mean,

518
00:33:09.480 --> 00:33:14.519
like like big ones. Yeah,
we're talking about a total overhaul of

519
00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:16.759
the interface. Yeah, I mean
on the Xbox side that five years.

520
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:21.319
On the Xbox side, that won't
happen until they abandoned that whole company wide

521
00:33:21.359 --> 00:33:24.759
initiative to have the same interface on
everything. Because but I think even like

522
00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:30.920
the Xbox stuff that needs needs tweaks, it needs rebils of certain features that

523
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:35.240
wouldn't be necessarily a whole new interface, but like the party system like that

524
00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:37.440
totally totally you know he but he
said an n XC thing. He's talking

525
00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:42.200
about a whole new interface. I
mean, drastic change is not just like

526
00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:45.279
we're adding Netflix or well that stuff. That stuff will happen. The system

527
00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:51.000
stability means that stuff will happen.
That'll that'll happen incrementally. Like they are

528
00:33:51.079 --> 00:33:54.880
both so in need of fixing.
Yeah, they the fixes and the promised

529
00:33:54.880 --> 00:33:59.359
additions have got to get by first, right, Yeah, of course.

530
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:00.839
Yeah. I don't think. I
don't think they're one of them to hold

531
00:34:00.839 --> 00:34:05.200
that stuff back for like a giant
like here's the Fall update or whatever.

532
00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:07.960
Yeah. I hope they have to
get this stuff out as soon as it's

533
00:34:07.960 --> 00:34:12.239
ready. Yeah, one would hope. Is that is that? So?

534
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:15.639
That is that how you spent your
break? I played Legends Raymond Legends.

535
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:20.119
Okay, that's fun on what on
the PC? I didn't really buy anything

536
00:34:20.119 --> 00:34:24.559
on that team sale, like I
played on the WEU. I was gonna

537
00:34:24.599 --> 00:34:27.800
I was gonna play it on the
PC. I was like, oh,

538
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:30.440
I have a we U copy year. I'm gonna play it on that.

539
00:34:30.599 --> 00:34:35.039
Yeah. Uh, I'm gonna pick
up anything on this team sale not another

540
00:34:35.079 --> 00:34:37.800
thing. Yeah, well did you
do I mean, did you get anything

541
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.840
else done over last week? I
spent a lot of time with a kid,

542
00:34:42.639 --> 00:34:45.679
the child. Yeah yeah, m
hm, oh wow, Yeah I

543
00:34:45.719 --> 00:34:49.800
got one over for Christmas. Oh
cool, cool, Yeah, that's cool.

544
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:52.079
I heard they hadn't really shipped a
lot. No guy was an early

545
00:34:52.119 --> 00:34:55.199
access Oh okay, okay, getting
the bugs out because I heard like they're

546
00:34:55.239 --> 00:35:00.840
just you can't find them in stores
anywhere. So it's sold like a million

547
00:35:00.880 --> 00:35:02.960
in the first play four hours.
Well, you know you'd buy him.

548
00:35:02.960 --> 00:35:07.519
And then it's like, you know, hopefully there's no hardware failures. Hopefully

549
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:12.199
it doesn't shit the bed. Uh, but it does. The secret is

550
00:35:12.199 --> 00:35:16.480
they all do uh eventually one hundred
percent failure rate. I shouldn't say that

551
00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:20.840
wet the bed, jeez, and
I'm gonna go home and shit in my

552
00:35:20.840 --> 00:35:24.840
bed. It spent a lot of
time, yeah, with Max, And

553
00:35:24.880 --> 00:35:32.840
that was a lot of fun,
just kind of enjoyed life. What is

554
00:35:32.880 --> 00:35:39.960
that like, It's like it's pretty
different more. Uh, it's fun.

555
00:35:40.159 --> 00:35:44.960
It was good. Uh. Like
the vacation seemed long. You know,

556
00:35:44.960 --> 00:35:49.199
it's never long enough, but it
seemed like I was. I was really

557
00:35:49.239 --> 00:35:52.760
enjoying it. And it was really
nice too, and I'm sure my wife

558
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:57.400
appreciated it too. Just to like
not feel like I have to cram everything

559
00:35:57.440 --> 00:36:00.360
in and then shut out the family
life to stuff done, and you don't

560
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:02.519
feel like, oh, I had
so little time when I get home,

561
00:36:02.599 --> 00:36:05.360
I need to get this all done, to be like, oh, dude,

562
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:08.039
tomorrow, all right, let's do
this today, not be super stressed

563
00:36:08.039 --> 00:36:13.880
out. So that was really nice. H made meatball hero. My wife

564
00:36:13.880 --> 00:36:16.079
made me bole Hero is delicious?
Are you the meatball hero? I have

565
00:36:16.840 --> 00:36:21.800
make a meatball hero out of you? Kind of meatballs? That's a personal

566
00:36:21.880 --> 00:36:23.400
question, So I don't know,
take that off the air, all right,

567
00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:29.119
talk about my meatballs off the everything? What what? What different kinds

568
00:36:29.119 --> 00:36:30.760
of meatballs up? Like turkey meatball? You just go to stop Bay and

569
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:34.159
go give me meatballs? No bread? Mean, like what kind of meat

570
00:36:34.199 --> 00:36:37.400
basically beef? Like I like,
well that's yeah, you know, that's

571
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:39.119
the fucking meat balls right in the
name. What do you want? I

572
00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:43.559
mean, I had like a fish
ball? I had no you would call

573
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:46.679
those fish meat balls there. They're
absolutely pork meatballs out there. Would you

574
00:36:46.679 --> 00:36:50.599
would you call that a pork meat
ball? Though? I might, Yeah,

575
00:36:50.639 --> 00:36:52.760
I don't know if you. If
I if you said, hey,

576
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:54.840
didn't give me a meat ball,
I would not immediately and you showed up

577
00:36:54.840 --> 00:36:59.679
with turkey, Yeah, I'd be
like, fuck, I'm kind of hippie.

578
00:36:59.719 --> 00:37:02.400
Do you think Guyanne that merit's being
called out if it's turkey, because

579
00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:05.760
then you can expect it to be
a little dryer, and then you want

580
00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:07.679
to know that ahead of time.
You would seriously consider somebody giving you a

581
00:37:07.719 --> 00:37:10.920
pork meat ball as a correct response
to saying I want to meat ball?

582
00:37:12.079 --> 00:37:15.320
Yeah, what I don't. I
don't know what the fuck? What?

583
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:17.519
What is it cooked in? I
don't know, like a marinara sauce?

584
00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:23.559
That is another question. Wait,
you can even get like chopped pork like

585
00:37:23.599 --> 00:37:29.239
that, I mean ground pork.
I do I do half pork half turkey.

586
00:37:29.320 --> 00:37:30.840
That's exactly what I was getting at, Like I had some cocktail like

587
00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:35.559
some I've got my own things going
on, Venny, So don't take that.

588
00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:38.960
It's like standing up. Yeah,
I was exposed. I was exposed

589
00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:42.880
to some more derve meat balls over
the holiday that had pork, beef and

590
00:37:43.039 --> 00:37:45.440
chicken in them. I got like
Jimmy Dean lean sausage. Just think how

591
00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:52.639
wasteful squeeze that three animals had to
die for that one meat ball, yeah,

592
00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:57.440
stuffed inside it. Yeah see there
you go. Okay, all right,

593
00:37:57.480 --> 00:38:00.119
it's a ball. That was It
was a it was a beef meatball.

594
00:38:00.280 --> 00:38:05.119
Okay, motherfucker damn. It was
a meat ball. All right.

595
00:38:05.519 --> 00:38:07.400
I don't think I've ever heard of
like everything that is. I don't know.

596
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:12.639
Man's some San Francisco ship that's a
spicy meat ball and it's beef.

597
00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:15.199
Guess what beef? Do you know
how many people are gonna write in about

598
00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:21.239
the contents of their meatballs? Zero
because I just told him not to do

599
00:38:21.280 --> 00:38:25.760
it. They're gonna save meatball is
beef. Everything else is. If I'm

600
00:38:25.760 --> 00:38:30.480
making a meat ball like to serve
other people, and like this is I'm

601
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:32.639
making a big dish and it's gonna
taste delicious, that's what I put beef.

602
00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:37.079
But if I'm making like a meat
ball to sustain myself over a week

603
00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:39.280
with my spaghetti and my fridge,
like one giant meatball, that you're just

604
00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:46.320
that's what I do I's got a
basket that sits on the edge of the

605
00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:50.840
bed that the meatball just stays in, and it's just any moment you go,

606
00:38:50.880 --> 00:38:54.920
oh, I'm gonna do any fridge
just for the meat ball. Grab

607
00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:59.960
a handful and then a handful of
pasta and just put it in your mouth

608
00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:04.320
and eat it. Wow. If
you type meat into Google, meat loaf

609
00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:07.199
is more commonly searched than meat ball. Would you think a pork mute loaf

610
00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:12.079
is okay? Because meat balls are
unto themselves and self explanatory. No one

611
00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:15.199
is looking up beat balls because I
know, like I've had turkey meat loaf

612
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:19.199
before. Also, there isn't a
singer named meat perfectly fun fair enough,

613
00:39:19.280 --> 00:39:22.639
I suppose that's true until right now. Well, I feel like a meat

614
00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:25.760
loaf can just be a giant meat
ball in the wrong shape. No,

615
00:39:25.920 --> 00:39:30.639
because it's meat meat loaf its own
fucking dumb thing. Yeah, yeah,

616
00:39:30.719 --> 00:39:34.880
it's kind of gross. Meat loaf's
good. I've had like one or two

617
00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:38.039
really good meat leafts, but I'm
not a fan. I would not tell.

618
00:39:38.119 --> 00:39:44.239
I mean to be fair. Meat
loaf originally was conceived to kind of

619
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:46.679
get more mileage out of the food
you had like I catch all back in

620
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:52.199
the lean leanard in times. You
know, do you remember that sandwich place

621
00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:57.280
and sauceleto that's old meat loaf as
well. So much place. Yeah,

622
00:39:57.559 --> 00:40:00.639
I had like behind the counter they
had beat loaf. I added it up

623
00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:05.679
one time and estimated that with one
meat loaf, if they sold they sold

624
00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:07.239
them per slice and for how much
they sold them. But if they if

625
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:10.360
they sold all that meat loaf,
they made like two hundred dollars. It's

626
00:40:10.360 --> 00:40:14.519
an expensive meat loaf. Yeah,
it's an expensive sandwich shop, but really

627
00:40:14.880 --> 00:40:19.639
it really was an expensive sandwich shop. Yeah. Yeah, everything there we

628
00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:22.079
love to stupid caught fresh. Yeah. So the North based search arg even

629
00:40:22.119 --> 00:40:25.159
the dive bar was the drinks.
I remember the drinks, but there being

630
00:40:25.239 --> 00:40:29.960
kind of expensive. I just ended
up on the Food Network landing page for

631
00:40:29.960 --> 00:40:31.760
meatball recipes. Yeah, there are
quite a few. The feature pork.

632
00:40:32.039 --> 00:40:36.519
That's because that's like a fancy that's
you're in fancy tan. Yeah, and

633
00:40:36.519 --> 00:40:38.239
they probably you know, but at
the same time you you would say,

634
00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:43.440
let's make these pork meatballs. Yes, you'd say, I mean, oh,

635
00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:45.199
these are delicious. Well I tried
A new thing is a pork meat

636
00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:51.119
ball? Actually yeah, like what
that's crazy. It's crazy kind of a

637
00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:57.239
foodie. Which point then I slit
your throat and walk on door. No,

638
00:40:57.480 --> 00:40:59.280
I don't want to talk about this. Like if you went into like

639
00:40:59.280 --> 00:41:04.000
an Italian restauran in order and meatball
sub would you have to clear make sure

640
00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:07.320
that's beef in that meatball? Because
you would, because you can refuse to

641
00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:09.440
eat anything else. No, because
you'd expect it to be beef, right,

642
00:41:09.440 --> 00:41:12.440
you wouldn't have to clarify. I
don't know, Like at this point,

643
00:41:12.480 --> 00:41:15.199
I want to look up the subway
meatballs and see if they're beef or

644
00:41:15.239 --> 00:41:19.960
not. You definitely don't want to
do that. Just fucking ground up sawdust

645
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:24.320
in newspapers, you know. Uh
yeah, I middle of Zigna too.

646
00:41:25.159 --> 00:41:29.400
All the quiz noos in my town
closed, so it was food is traffganza

647
00:41:29.440 --> 00:41:31.840
for everyone. They really you're better
off? Are they pulling out because it

648
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:35.639
closed around here? I don't know, I don't know what it used to

649
00:41:35.679 --> 00:41:38.800
be. Subway started toasting, and
then it was it was like, all,

650
00:41:38.840 --> 00:41:43.000
we're fun. What if that?
Literally? Is it? If?

651
00:41:43.039 --> 00:41:46.920
Subway said like, Subway is the
world of warcraft? A fucking sandwich shops

652
00:41:47.079 --> 00:41:51.320
the new Innovator comes out with all
these new features, and then the next

653
00:41:51.400 --> 00:41:52.559
patch, Subway goes, oh we
can toast that ship, and nowt too

654
00:41:53.440 --> 00:41:59.320
like fuck, yeah, what we
lost our thing? Well, oh well

655
00:41:59.480 --> 00:42:04.119
ship close it down. I keep
saying one of these weeks we should get

656
00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:07.119
one of those forty man party raids. Yeah. I really shouldn't really tackle

657
00:42:07.199 --> 00:42:09.599
that thing World Warcraft. Yeah,
yeah, I thought, I mean,

658
00:42:09.639 --> 00:42:16.480
like forty sandwiches. No, it's
one sandwich that takes like the Internet burger

659
00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:20.400
fucking player class bra But yeah,
you've got to be in the right place

660
00:42:20.440 --> 00:42:22.920
at the right time. You're supposed
to be there. I'm gonna be the

661
00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:24.920
one that east all the SALAMMI yeah, you're supposed to be on SALAMMI duty

662
00:42:25.199 --> 00:42:29.719
wait to take a nap. I'm
gonna tank this fucking sandwich on asshole.

663
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:31.360
On the third phase, you're gonna
have to deal with those olive ads.

664
00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:34.840
They're gonna keep popping out. I
could do. I'm like, I'm like,

665
00:42:35.079 --> 00:42:37.079
you know, I could do a
lot of damage really fast, but

666
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:40.880
I'll I'll go down if I get
hit, if I hit like a green

667
00:42:40.920 --> 00:42:45.480
pepper or something like, I'm just
out. I'm not playing healer on us.

668
00:42:45.880 --> 00:42:49.239
Make push me in the stomach.
I need the vomit. I need

669
00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:52.320
to keep going. Just punch me
in the stomach. All right, I'm

670
00:42:52.320 --> 00:42:55.199
gonna push the four key. I
think to do that. Boy, I

671
00:42:55.199 --> 00:43:00.960
could sell it. I think I
could. Yeah, it's so over leveled.

672
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:05.639
It's been all day in Subway just
grinding. Why they call him grinders?

673
00:43:05.880 --> 00:43:08.239
There you go, Well, Drew, what did you do with your

674
00:43:08.239 --> 00:43:10.599
break? We haven't heard from you. That's right. Yeah, you guys

675
00:43:10.599 --> 00:43:15.159
did that podcast with the Google.
We did. We went to Google and

676
00:43:15.199 --> 00:43:16.800
did that part the Google's doing.
All right. Google had a pretty good

677
00:43:16.800 --> 00:43:22.440
break. Gave all of our information
to the government, which I thought was

678
00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:27.159
a little weird. But oh man, you got scrugle. Oh fuck.

679
00:43:27.679 --> 00:43:31.280
But they gave was free lunch,
so it's cool. They did our launder

680
00:43:31.559 --> 00:43:34.519
like they took care of Max for
like two hours. Yeah, it was

681
00:43:34.519 --> 00:43:38.519
really cool. Yeah, campus is
really fantastic. Razor Uh. I spent

682
00:43:38.559 --> 00:43:43.360
a lot of it up in Lake
Tahoe. Uh played some disc golf.

683
00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:46.239
It was it was the weather like
up there, it's snow warm. It

684
00:43:46.360 --> 00:43:50.800
was. There was snow on the
ground, not so it was just enough

685
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:54.559
to like lose a disc if your
disc way snow on the ground. Plabe.

686
00:43:54.760 --> 00:44:00.480
That's right, there's snow on the
ground. Played disc golf? Does

687
00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:01.840
it have the chain? Is that
disc golf? It's like the goal post

688
00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:06.960
of the chains around it. Yeah. So the goal is like a bowl

689
00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:10.400
on a pole. Yeah, and
the chain and it's something right like if

690
00:44:10.400 --> 00:44:14.079
you well, the chain knocks it
down into the bowl. Oh, it's

691
00:44:14.119 --> 00:44:21.199
not different points like I hit the
play that. Uh yeah, that's rules.

692
00:44:21.639 --> 00:44:24.039
We played the first day and and
then I went to the gym and

693
00:44:24.079 --> 00:44:28.480
worked out up there, and then
I tried to play the next day in

694
00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:32.079
my shoulder really hurt. So I
played left handed. Oh wow, and

695
00:44:32.159 --> 00:44:40.519
I got like plus ten pop up
any disks. Yeah, we're not able

696
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:45.480
to play goofy. So, I
mean I was impressed with my own left

697
00:44:45.480 --> 00:44:49.800
handed performance, but it was nowhere
near. You have to work on it,

698
00:44:50.000 --> 00:44:52.960
yeah, be you as I have
a dextrous he can throw and catch

699
00:44:53.320 --> 00:45:00.960
whatever, anything anything. People had
recommended after I mentioned I played the Resistance

700
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:06.639
the board game Yea over Thanksgiving,
they recommended that I get the expansion or

701
00:45:06.800 --> 00:45:13.079
slash sequel called Resistance Avalon. Uh, and it is way cool. So

702
00:45:13.079 --> 00:45:15.440
we played a lot of that We
have some friends up there too, so

703
00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:22.320
we got a good like nine ten
people game going. Uh see what else

704
00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:23.880
did I play at? A bunch
of my old systems are up there,

705
00:45:23.920 --> 00:45:30.159
so we played like Mario Carton and
also one of the best games golf games

706
00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:34.679
ever, Mario Golf Toads Steal Tour
for the Nintendo GameCube. That is a

707
00:45:34.880 --> 00:45:43.599
solid game. Someone of the name
cool Ones. Okay, we're still doing

708
00:45:43.639 --> 00:45:49.079
it then, Uh, that's kind
of it for Yeah, we do.

709
00:45:49.119 --> 00:45:54.639
It's not it's not would, it's
not gas. It was like spar the

710
00:45:54.639 --> 00:45:58.320
air all break. Yeah, there
were a ton of No, it's been

711
00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:00.440
super dry. Yeah around here.
You can like that fireplace. No you

712
00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:04.559
get well, I mean you can, They just recommend you don't. It's

713
00:46:04.599 --> 00:46:07.559
not like that fireplace. It was
pouring rain in the place where I went

714
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:10.360
for the holiday, so we made
plenty of fires and didn't worry about it.

715
00:46:12.679 --> 00:46:15.400
I heard a story about Tahoe about
Oh, I heard a story about

716
00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:21.719
they're not keeping it blue or whatever
green? What color style? Blue?

717
00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:25.719
Blue? There's a construction and bad
stuff and taho is basically gonna be assessible

718
00:46:25.719 --> 00:46:30.400
in about three months. Well,
from the weird thing, I always thought

719
00:46:30.519 --> 00:46:35.599
was that they don't recycle up there. Really, Yeah, you just throw

720
00:46:35.639 --> 00:46:40.559
all your stuff into one throwing the
lake lake. They might just separate it

721
00:46:42.199 --> 00:46:45.079
after the fact. That's that's there
are definitely locations that do that kind of

722
00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:49.239
after the fact recycling, which sounds
great yea in terms of, like,

723
00:46:49.320 --> 00:46:52.639
you know, no one has to
think about it. Everything just gets thrown

724
00:46:52.639 --> 00:46:57.800
away and then it all gets recycled
properly ideally hopefully. I may have heard

725
00:46:57.800 --> 00:47:01.079
it wrong, but there was somebody
was saying that they were gonna there were

726
00:47:01.119 --> 00:47:06.119
so many restrictions if you live up
there or you know, have a business

727
00:47:06.239 --> 00:47:08.280
up there. I'm like, what
you can do for the environment that nobody

728
00:47:08.320 --> 00:47:13.800
follows them? Said they were gonna
roll them back a bit to make fewer

729
00:47:14.239 --> 00:47:16.480
in the hopes that people would then
follow them the few that were left,

730
00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:22.960
and some people were like, you're
what, like, no, then people

731
00:47:22.039 --> 00:47:25.360
then will be cleaner, because the
people will then because it's so daunting now.

732
00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:29.760
But if we just will get rid
of a bunch, then people we

733
00:47:29.800 --> 00:47:32.800
could focus on these big ones.
I don't know. I went to Tahoe

734
00:47:32.800 --> 00:47:38.639
once. I liked it. I
guess yeah. There was no snow though,

735
00:47:38.679 --> 00:47:43.920
so no skin. Yeah, but
you know, hung out, binged,

736
00:47:44.000 --> 00:47:47.440
watch TV shows. Yeah, it
was good, and then came back

737
00:47:47.559 --> 00:47:52.840
to the city for New Year's spent
thout some friends and then uh, you

738
00:47:52.880 --> 00:48:00.280
know it's kind of vegget out nice
caught up on some pork veg pork pork

739
00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:07.079
vegim Yeah. Yeah. Turkey mean
bolls turkey meet balls are probably totally fine.

740
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:09.800
I probably haven't had them before.
I just can't. You just gotta

741
00:48:09.840 --> 00:48:14.480
make sure you say it's a turkey
mean bo I like turkey burgers. I

742
00:48:14.519 --> 00:48:17.440
just I just want to know,
Like if I were exactly like totally yes,

743
00:48:17.880 --> 00:48:22.440
go somewhere and say let's have hamburgers
and then give you turkey burgers,

744
00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:27.480
you'd be pissed you to be But
he said, hey man, I got

745
00:48:27.480 --> 00:48:29.199
turkey burgers. I might just say, like, fuck it, man,

746
00:48:29.280 --> 00:48:30.239
let's have turkey burgers. They're good
too. I don't know if I go

747
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:34.239
as far as say you could be
pissed about it getting free burger of any

748
00:48:34.280 --> 00:48:37.119
kind, I don't know. I
get my hopes up as someone who can

749
00:48:37.199 --> 00:48:42.880
afford a hamburger. What if you
had to go there for free hamburgers and

750
00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:45.599
then they're like, hey man,
here's your free hamburger. You came to

751
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:47.199
this thing. You came to this
time share event and at the end we

752
00:48:47.239 --> 00:48:51.639
said we're gonna give you hamburgers.
Yeah. Different, here's a turkey burgers.

753
00:48:52.360 --> 00:48:53.760
Fucking I don't want it. You
don't like it? Eat now?

754
00:48:54.599 --> 00:48:58.760
Yeah, I like veggie dogs,
but I would call it a veggie dog.

755
00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:00.800
Yeah, I wouldn't call it,
wouldn't or if you a hot dog

756
00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:09.840
and then say it was beef pork. Yeah, bread, Yes, I

757
00:49:09.960 --> 00:49:15.519
ate some meatballs. Yeah, out
of a crock pot. That was probably

758
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:20.400
good. They were like it was
like a cocktail sort of small small meatball

759
00:49:20.440 --> 00:49:22.800
you need to put a toothpick in
it to eat. Yeah. It was

760
00:49:22.800 --> 00:49:28.639
in like sweet sort of a ball, you know, sauce sure of some

761
00:49:28.760 --> 00:49:30.840
type I kind of it's like a
sweet and sour you kind of was my

762
00:49:31.039 --> 00:49:35.119
parents house. It was one of
a couple of they're putting on like an

763
00:49:35.119 --> 00:49:38.559
industry family functions. Have a cocktail
like mashed potatoes and a cup to even

764
00:49:38.599 --> 00:49:42.239
free meal or derve. Tell you
about the games, like you know,

765
00:49:42.280 --> 00:49:44.440
there was a crock pot of meatballs. There was a big thing of checks

766
00:49:44.480 --> 00:49:49.239
mix playing and one of one of
the two gatherings. Yes, they were

767
00:49:49.239 --> 00:49:52.320
totally deviled eggs prior to the meal. I love devil leggs. I tell

768
00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:55.440
you I can eat like eighty They're
gross. That's what's excessive. I don't

769
00:49:55.440 --> 00:49:58.679
like what you don't d Yeah,
I feel like you wouldn't like the things

770
00:49:58.719 --> 00:50:00.599
that are in it. Deviled eggs
are pretty I don't. I don't like

771
00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:07.599
softballed or hard boiled eggs. Usually
I love deviled eggs. Yeah, there

772
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:08.960
are a couple of cheese plates.
It says devil right in it. I

773
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:15.440
don't. I'm allergic to eggs,
not actually like peanut allergy alert. Yeah,

774
00:50:15.480 --> 00:50:20.800
not like ANAPLA or whatever. I
just can't really digest them very well.

775
00:50:21.480 --> 00:50:25.599
So for the meatballs, I have
to use weird stuff like and stuff

776
00:50:25.760 --> 00:50:31.400
bind it. No, so I
have to use yep uh, flax seed

777
00:50:31.400 --> 00:50:36.400
meal kind of interesting pour water in
that three to one, and it's like

778
00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:42.239
creates this kind of jelly consistency.
Either that or apple sauce and baking powder.

779
00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:45.760
Okay, huh, that actually sounds
like it'd probably all right. Yeah,

780
00:50:45.000 --> 00:50:47.039
what's that due to the flavor you
get a little bit of apple kind

781
00:50:47.079 --> 00:50:50.199
of back, Yeah, you kind
of. I don't do the apple for

782
00:50:50.199 --> 00:50:52.960
the meatballs, but I do it
for like a sweet stuff if I'm baking.

783
00:50:53.159 --> 00:50:59.519
Maybe, yeah, apple sauce and
instead of sugar somethings. Yet such

784
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:05.599
too. Oh man, I love
apple sauce period, coming out with it,

785
00:51:06.760 --> 00:51:09.800
screaming exactly. I don't care who
knows it. Apple sauce is great.

786
00:51:09.960 --> 00:51:15.280
I like apple juice. Yes,
absolutely underrepresented. If I find myself

787
00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:17.599
in a Las Vegas buffet, yeah
it's good. Yes, anywhere, get

788
00:51:17.639 --> 00:51:21.159
apple juice anywhere, bever. Just
come out of to Spencers. It's a

789
00:51:21.159 --> 00:51:23.840
good place to get out. Ever
have Martin Alley's. Oh yeah that sounds

790
00:51:23.920 --> 00:51:27.639
good. Yeah it is. Yeah. Yeah. The bottles are too small,

791
00:51:27.760 --> 00:51:30.039
too small, Yeah, a little
little little apple shaped things. Oh

792
00:51:30.199 --> 00:51:32.679
no, no, these are like
the big like the champagne bottles. Oh

793
00:51:32.719 --> 00:51:36.280
those are like there's just like sparkling
or whatever. Yeah, I'm not a

794
00:51:36.480 --> 00:51:40.639
probably, Yeah, some into the
bubbling stuff, the bubbles getting the way

795
00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:45.119
of the apple of the apple.
Yeah, then you spend time burping,

796
00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:47.960
which is time you could be drinking
apples more apple juice. Yeah, think

797
00:51:47.960 --> 00:51:52.880
about a Vegas buffets. They will
keep bringing you apple juice, or you

798
00:51:52.920 --> 00:51:54.320
could just go get it. Whenever
you want it. Yeah, well yes,

799
00:51:54.440 --> 00:51:59.559
now, I mean that's you know, not every buffet had drink stations.

800
00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:02.119
Sure, then back in the dark
days, back in the dark days

801
00:52:02.239 --> 00:52:07.679
of going to Vegas. Oh god, that's probably some bad apple juice.

802
00:52:07.760 --> 00:52:09.400
Last time I was in Vegas,
I went to a buffet by myself.

803
00:52:09.800 --> 00:52:14.360
All right, Yeah, that sounds
all right. It was all right.

804
00:52:14.840 --> 00:52:16.519
It just felt kind of crazy because
like it's a bunch of you know,

805
00:52:16.559 --> 00:52:20.199
I forget what I was there for, some event, some game thing.

806
00:52:20.920 --> 00:52:23.440
It's the EA thing. But like
everything's a buffet in Vegas. It's like

807
00:52:23.719 --> 00:52:25.800
this, might as well go to
a restaurant and call it a buffet.

808
00:52:25.880 --> 00:52:29.199
Like but no, but I went
to like the buffet where it's like just

809
00:52:29.400 --> 00:52:32.800
go stand up and there's a billion
like a bunch of horrible food. Like

810
00:52:32.960 --> 00:52:37.559
some good food here that you can
eat in horrible quantities. Sure is here

811
00:52:37.960 --> 00:52:40.840
they have an ice cream machine,
of course, Okay, jus a super

812
00:52:40.840 --> 00:52:45.000
bowl instead of the ice cream boll
Yeah, that's I'm not I've done this

813
00:52:45.320 --> 00:52:49.599
before. That's not. Ain't no
amateur. I'm kind of a foodie.

814
00:52:49.760 --> 00:52:55.599
Okay. They brought me a lot
of apple juice. Nice, that's the

815
00:52:55.639 --> 00:53:00.679
point of my story, keeping coming, keeping coming of the apple juice on

816
00:53:00.679 --> 00:53:04.079
the ice cream. You know that, I'm wonder if that would be terrible

817
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:07.760
that, you know, liquid on
on ice cream. You don't see an

818
00:53:07.760 --> 00:53:09.599
apple ice cream might be too much. You don't you'll see like an apple

819
00:53:09.639 --> 00:53:15.719
pie all a mode, okay,
but like an apple ice cream. How

820
00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:17.800
do you feel about apple butter?
Because I had some of that over the

821
00:53:17.840 --> 00:53:22.079
world. I don't know. It's
all right, put it on like cornbread

822
00:53:22.159 --> 00:53:24.719
or something. No, buttermilk biscuit. Put a bunch of butter on there.

823
00:53:25.119 --> 00:53:30.199
Then put the apple cider on Sunday, which basically was like apple cider,

824
00:53:30.519 --> 00:53:34.400
but all the spices you would put
into a pumpkin pie just dumped into

825
00:53:34.440 --> 00:53:37.159
that cider, so it was still
apple based. It was just h with

826
00:53:37.440 --> 00:53:40.800
pumpkinny spices. Weird, so it
was there was no actual pumpkin, there

827
00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:44.920
was any get in there. That's
really crazy. It was. It was

828
00:53:45.000 --> 00:53:49.239
bizarre but tasty. It sounds like
an apple spiced cider or something. Yeah,

829
00:53:50.119 --> 00:53:52.840
there's a big old pumpkin on the
label, so okay, well it's

830
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:58.639
probably it contains two percent pumpkin juice
right East Coast. Yeah, so I

831
00:53:59.000 --> 00:54:02.639
have realized, and my reclusive old
age, that I measure the quality of

832
00:54:02.679 --> 00:54:07.119
my vacations by how few times I
have to leave the house. Yeah,

833
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:10.480
now you're talking. Uh the week
one at my parents on the East Coast,

834
00:54:10.639 --> 00:54:15.599
I went out twice nice both times
for like, you know, requisite

835
00:54:15.639 --> 00:54:17.400
family. Okay, family, I
was gonna say. I thought it was

836
00:54:17.440 --> 00:54:20.639
you know, it's like very quickly
to get food and then go home.

837
00:54:20.719 --> 00:54:22.199
Well, we kind of would roll
age, you know, a trip to

838
00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:25.440
the Chick fil a or whatever into
into the front or back end of those.

839
00:54:28.239 --> 00:54:32.639
There's nothing quite as like satisfying and
shameful as going to a dinner or

840
00:54:32.719 --> 00:54:37.320
something like that and then going to
a fact we didn't do that. We

841
00:54:37.440 --> 00:54:40.800
did. Fact we do all days, right my family, So nobody was

842
00:54:40.880 --> 00:54:45.159
capable of eating after the family gatherings
or for the rest of the day.

843
00:54:45.239 --> 00:54:47.000
Actually, definitely some events I've gone
to where it's just like are you are

844
00:54:47.039 --> 00:54:51.719
you hungry? Like family ones,
no, oh okay, Like a friends

845
00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:53.159
thing where you're just like, okay, you know you didn't really have a

846
00:54:53.239 --> 00:54:55.519
chance to eat too much or something
like that. You're just like, okay,

847
00:54:55.960 --> 00:54:58.920
you know you want to go to
like breaking or something. Yeah,

848
00:54:59.239 --> 00:55:01.000
totally. Yeah, at least where
I'm from. Like, every I take

849
00:55:01.000 --> 00:55:05.360
her that up front, you eat
before you go. Yeah, every I

850
00:55:05.480 --> 00:55:08.800
have done that. I have definitely. Yeah, you're around people and you

851
00:55:08.840 --> 00:55:12.960
don't want them to see you eat
the way you eat, so you're like,

852
00:55:13.199 --> 00:55:15.280
well, I'm gonna have to eat
first. I got a qualms about

853
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:17.559
that. Well, the family is
different, Yeah, I guess so.

854
00:55:17.920 --> 00:55:22.280
I mean we had Christmas stuff at
my aunts and then I promptly found a

855
00:55:22.320 --> 00:55:27.039
recliner and fell asleep in their house. It's great, I found a side

856
00:55:27.119 --> 00:55:30.679
room. Wait, did that mean
you are the like family member who was

857
00:55:30.760 --> 00:55:31.679
on the recliner? I was like, you're looking for both. They have

858
00:55:31.719 --> 00:55:35.840
a lot of recliners. What do
you What do you mean like you're the

859
00:55:36.000 --> 00:55:38.199
one that was off somewhere. That's
definitely not the only one. Okay,

860
00:55:38.519 --> 00:55:42.280
there were multiple people were there have
a lot of recliners. Well this was

861
00:55:42.360 --> 00:55:45.320
in like a little sitting room off
to the side. Yeah, just a

862
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:50.360
bunch of people sitting there. Like
there were like ten people were playing or

863
00:55:50.440 --> 00:55:52.519
something, just like a bunch of
beds. There was just there were like

864
00:55:52.559 --> 00:55:54.960
ten people playing like scattergories or something
like that. And then everybody who was

865
00:55:55.000 --> 00:55:59.519
not into that, which I was
one, No, I haven't found a

866
00:55:59.559 --> 00:56:04.920
place to slump falsely weird picture of
like a shoemaker family event where everybody's not

867
00:56:05.880 --> 00:56:08.840
that's like a bunch of recliners,
just in a very orderly rose all right,

868
00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:14.920
Time to string up the hammocks,
triple decker hammocks, just a little

869
00:56:15.000 --> 00:56:16.599
ladders up to him. You know, everybody's just that's the Shoemaker set.

870
00:56:16.760 --> 00:56:24.079
The family is just kind of just
recliners, you know. Yeah, you

871
00:56:24.159 --> 00:56:28.119
stop eating, set the napkin down, pull the rip cord of the recliner,

872
00:56:28.920 --> 00:56:31.880
all right. Most most most people
do not eat as foolishly as I

873
00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:35.719
do with those things. So most
people were fine, kick the back of

874
00:56:35.760 --> 00:56:39.840
the recliner up, he'll eat for
a while. Longer ud be great steam

875
00:56:39.880 --> 00:56:45.800
trays at every place setting. My
dad used to be the one who who'd

876
00:56:45.840 --> 00:56:49.320
find the couch of the recliner and
just like you know, you'd disappear,

877
00:56:49.840 --> 00:56:52.440
and then like we'd go walking around
like twenty minutes later and you'd have found

878
00:56:52.519 --> 00:56:55.480
the place where it was quiet.
Sure took a nap. I just say

879
00:56:55.480 --> 00:56:58.280
I never really felt like I was
old enough to do that. Or get

880
00:56:58.320 --> 00:57:00.480
away with that. Yeah, I
kind of do. Yeah. Now we're

881
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:05.320
getting to the point where it's it's
it's socially acceptable to doze O the little

882
00:57:05.360 --> 00:57:09.440
kids running around Yeah, okaya.
At that one, the youngest was like

883
00:57:10.199 --> 00:57:16.079
thirteen, so it's not such a
thing anyway. Yeah, like just stay

884
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:20.280
in the house, nice, fantastic
nice, had a lot of handhelds.

885
00:57:20.320 --> 00:57:22.639
Just get a good funk going.
No, no, I mean go bathe

886
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:27.760
every day we're clean flow wasting time. Uh. And I built a lot

887
00:57:27.800 --> 00:57:32.440
of fires, sat there with three
d s and Vita and iPad jeez dabbling.

888
00:57:32.559 --> 00:57:38.639
Would you play Zelda tear Away Room
The Room too? Yes? What's

889
00:57:38.639 --> 00:57:42.519
that? Has the Room too?
I like it. We talked about it

890
00:57:42.559 --> 00:57:45.239
some last week the podcast, Like
I have you finished it? Yeah?

891
00:57:45.400 --> 00:57:46.559
You did finish it? Yeah?
Uh? Do you know many chapters?

892
00:57:46.599 --> 00:57:51.800
It is? The calling like four
or five? Okay, I must be

893
00:57:51.880 --> 00:57:54.199
close to the I think I'm on
chapter four. Uh, going back and

894
00:57:54.280 --> 00:58:00.320
discovered I had not played that little
ad on yas pretty I mean it's not

895
00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:05.079
impossible, but it's pretty challenging.
Like yeah, uh, and anyway,

896
00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:09.079
I played in just like wet my
whistle right up? Yeah, I don't

897
00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:12.159
Yeah, I don't know that.
Maybe I don't know if this is a

898
00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:14.719
little nitpicky, but I don't know
that. I love that there is like

899
00:58:14.880 --> 00:58:17.960
a like three stations. Well there's
that, which I feel like kind of

900
00:58:19.000 --> 00:58:22.280
makes some lose focus on the puzzles
a little bit, although sometimes they find

901
00:58:22.320 --> 00:58:25.280
ways to make the different stations kind
of interact with in some kind of neat

902
00:58:25.320 --> 00:58:29.360
ways. I think the thing I'm
finding a little more off putting is there's

903
00:58:29.480 --> 00:58:32.360
like this just this really jarring jump
from one kind of cultural esthetic to another,

904
00:58:32.440 --> 00:58:35.320
from room to room. I mean
it's like I was like, oh,

905
00:58:35.360 --> 00:58:37.519
I'm in the I'm in the shipwreck
room, and now I'm in the

906
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:39.800
Egyptian room, and now I'm in
the like Baroque room, yeah, or

907
00:58:39.920 --> 00:58:44.599
Victorian or whatever that's decorated my house. You are almost done. I think

908
00:58:45.360 --> 00:58:49.000
I'm gonna hang out in the bounce
House room. Yeah, yeah, I

909
00:58:49.039 --> 00:58:52.400
think I'm I'm in the one that
looks like a you know, the kind

910
00:58:52.400 --> 00:58:57.000
of Victorian era, uh like man
mansion or something. I think I barely

911
00:58:57.039 --> 00:58:59.280
got into it and turn it off. But the point is, like I

912
00:58:59.360 --> 00:59:01.559
don't know, the game had like
a really nice cohesive kind of atmosphere to

913
00:59:01.639 --> 00:59:05.400
it. You know, you felt
like you really were delving layer by layer

914
00:59:05.519 --> 00:59:08.360
into this crazy, this magical Yeah, that's what I mean. It's like

915
00:59:08.440 --> 00:59:12.400
this one, you're just sort of
there's a little mysticism, jumping from place

916
00:59:12.440 --> 00:59:14.639
to place and it's sort of I
don't know, I still really like it.

917
00:59:14.639 --> 00:59:15.920
It's it's it's fun, it's still
cool. So that part didn't bother

918
00:59:16.039 --> 00:59:19.639
me, And the and the multiple
sections in the room didn't bother me so

919
00:59:19.760 --> 00:59:22.360
much. It was more of the
less of the What I really liked about

920
00:59:22.360 --> 00:59:27.880
the first one was that kind of
this mechanically, I like to imagine mechanically

921
00:59:27.920 --> 00:59:30.119
a lot of this stuff could be
possible, Gears turning inside these boxes.

922
00:59:30.159 --> 00:59:31.880
Totally. This one, I felt
like I had a little more of like,

923
00:59:32.039 --> 00:59:35.719
wow, that's a little more fantastical
magic it is happening. Yeah,

924
00:59:35.760 --> 00:59:38.159
Like they don't even try to justify
in any kind of tangible player what's happened

925
00:59:38.199 --> 00:59:42.960
some of that stuffs like, uh, you know, the laser hits the

926
00:59:43.079 --> 00:59:45.360
crystal and then the crystal does magic. Yeah. It was a little bit

927
00:59:45.400 --> 00:59:49.599
of that in the Room one,
but for the most out, and it

928
00:59:49.679 --> 00:59:51.840
was towards the end of that game. Yeah, they really go balls out

929
00:59:51.880 --> 00:59:54.360
in this one, Like stuff is
just happening. So really enjoying it,

930
00:59:54.400 --> 00:59:57.440
though, I'm looking forward to finishing
it. It's a lot more of that

931
00:59:57.559 --> 01:00:01.000
ips. Yeah, yeah, sure
dark, Sure that game is still very

932
01:00:01.000 --> 01:00:04.719
close. Those games are still awesome. Yeah, Like, I'm really glad

933
01:00:04.800 --> 01:00:07.639
those exist did beat Zelda. I'm
really close to the end of that.

934
01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:10.960
Just more I play of that more
glad I am that. I put it

935
01:00:12.039 --> 01:00:15.079
way up on my top ten list. It's so fucking good. Yes,

936
01:00:15.159 --> 01:00:17.079
I know I didn't finish it,
but you know what, I liked what

937
01:00:17.199 --> 01:00:21.400
I had played of that game more
than most of the games I had finished

938
01:00:21.480 --> 01:00:24.599
last year. If it had gotten
horrible forward, I don't you know.

939
01:00:24.679 --> 01:00:29.199
I was prepared for that. I
was perfectly willing to take that risk.

940
01:00:29.280 --> 01:00:32.639
Acceptable. Yeah the games, Yeah, did you did you get all the

941
01:00:32.679 --> 01:00:36.800
mime eyes? No? I got
like forty. Oh really, I've already

942
01:00:36.840 --> 01:00:40.440
got like seventy something, how many
are I think? I started upgrading stuff,

943
01:00:40.719 --> 01:00:45.039
and then I realized that the upgraded
stuff didn't seem like I was doing.

944
01:00:45.079 --> 01:00:49.000
It's not that much better and you
don't really need yeah, like,

945
01:00:49.000 --> 01:00:50.800
you know, being able to throw
a bunch of boomerangs at once and just

946
01:00:50.840 --> 01:00:52.639
spam them is kind of cool.
But I don't think I ever used the

947
01:00:52.639 --> 01:00:55.599
boomerang. I just I just like
finding the things, like I find it

948
01:00:55.719 --> 01:00:59.079
to be a fun collectible with you
know, they make the little sound that

949
01:00:59.119 --> 01:01:01.639
you can get throw in on and
don't like how it gives you the I

950
01:01:01.840 --> 01:01:06.440
found this every time you find them, am I This just takes like what

951
01:01:06.599 --> 01:01:07.719
three seconds? Yeah, but it
should just do it the first time,

952
01:01:07.760 --> 01:01:10.719
and they should just pick him up. I guess like he does the hole

953
01:01:10.760 --> 01:01:15.559
hold it up and then yeah,
yeah, that's because you know they did

954
01:01:15.599 --> 01:01:20.039
it with like finding rupees and chests
before. You know, still they do

955
01:01:20.159 --> 01:01:22.000
that with keys and dungeons. Yeah, that stuff, Like it's so different.

956
01:01:22.079 --> 01:01:24.079
I think this is I don't know, I felt like it was silly.

957
01:01:24.159 --> 01:01:27.039
I didn't bother It doesn't bother me. I kind of want to get

958
01:01:27.039 --> 01:01:30.920
all of them for whatever. Help
save them, manet. I've got two

959
01:01:30.000 --> 01:01:35.119
dungeons left. I don't know.
I just you know, I'm almost putting

960
01:01:35.119 --> 01:01:37.519
off finishing it because I don't want
it to be over. It was so

961
01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:38.960
good the wind really when I of
my sales, when I when I beat

962
01:01:39.079 --> 01:01:42.440
up as far as finding the rest
of the stuff. No, no,

963
01:01:43.000 --> 01:01:45.000
well, yeah, a little bit
of that, but more of like I

964
01:01:45.119 --> 01:01:47.679
was bummed after it ended. Oh
it was over. Yeah, yeah,

965
01:01:47.760 --> 01:01:51.559
totally has having a really good like
just having that to go back to whenever

966
01:01:51.599 --> 01:01:53.880
I feel like it has been.
Yeah, like I like it so much.

967
01:01:53.880 --> 01:01:58.280
I have violated my rule of not
playing the hand held stuff in my

968
01:01:58.360 --> 01:02:00.119
house, oh you know, like
trying to save it for when I'm out

969
01:02:00.159 --> 01:02:02.119
on trips or whatever. It's just
like, I have to finish this.

970
01:02:02.239 --> 01:02:08.719
It's too good. Played a little
more assassins played most of I think I'm

971
01:02:08.719 --> 01:02:14.800
almost at the end of that BioShock
barreletcy. I've heard that short. I

972
01:02:14.840 --> 01:02:17.039
don't know. I mean, I'm
I'm in the part where there's combat,

973
01:02:17.079 --> 01:02:19.920
and I know they had said,
like, oh, the first half of

974
01:02:20.000 --> 01:02:22.639
it there's no combat. So I
guess maybe it is short, if that's

975
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:24.440
the case, because it doesn't feel
like I've been playing it that long.

976
01:02:24.519 --> 01:02:29.280
But I feel like I heard nothing
but negativity about that thing part of playing

977
01:02:29.320 --> 01:02:36.159
it, and I think it's cool
what you would, Well, you're wrong,

978
01:02:36.599 --> 01:02:39.280
I mean, I really I really
only came to it to see rapture

979
01:02:39.400 --> 01:02:42.719
kind of re envisioned in this new
engine, you know. Yeah, and

980
01:02:42.760 --> 01:02:45.400
then also you know, there's this
kind of rapture before the fall, you

981
01:02:45.480 --> 01:02:50.199
know, it's when you know,
it's when everything was still gleaming. I'm

982
01:02:50.199 --> 01:02:54.280
not gonna say everything is perfect,
because obviously things didn't stay for very long.

983
01:02:54.559 --> 01:02:59.960
Yeah, it's actually it's set after
I almost wish I had gone back.

984
01:03:00.000 --> 01:03:01.239
I can read up on the story
of BioShock because I don' remember the

985
01:03:01.280 --> 01:03:07.119
exact sequence of offense, but the
revolution, there's the whole thing where it's

986
01:03:07.159 --> 01:03:08.960
kind of been. Yeah, it's
been really cool actually picking up audiologs from

987
01:03:09.039 --> 01:03:14.599
characters like Suchong from the first BioShock
and remind being reminded of all that stuff.

988
01:03:14.960 --> 01:03:17.639
I guess I had never really considered
the concept that this would have characters

989
01:03:17.800 --> 01:03:22.639
and stuff like that from original BioShock. Totally. That's that's all it is,

990
01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:24.679
Huh, Like, you know,
you you're still Booker and Elizabeth is

991
01:03:24.719 --> 01:03:30.280
with you although there so that's kind
of the weird thing that is really uh

992
01:03:30.599 --> 01:03:35.840
taking me by surprise, is that
it's kind of defied my expectations twice because

993
01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:38.840
going into it, your booker and
you're with Elizabeth, Right, They seemed

994
01:03:38.840 --> 01:03:43.239
to be playing totally different roles,
you know, like you're you're just a

995
01:03:43.280 --> 01:03:46.519
private eye who has an office on
like the Promenade and Rapture or whatever.

996
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:50.880
You're just a guy who lives in
Rapture. And she comes to you,

997
01:03:51.559 --> 01:03:53.400
you know, looking all like fim
fatal or whatever. It's super warrish.

998
01:03:54.519 --> 01:03:57.079
I was like, Oh, well, so they just kind of took these

999
01:03:57.159 --> 01:04:00.559
basic treatments for these characters and slotted
them into these totally different roles, which

1000
01:04:00.679 --> 01:04:02.920
is not what I expected. Yeah, But then the deeper you end you

1001
01:04:03.039 --> 01:04:08.000
get, the more it starts seeming
like, mostly through little off handed comments

1002
01:04:08.079 --> 01:04:11.519
that she makes. I don't know
what the hell is going on, but

1003
01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:15.280
like, there's clearly some greater connection
to buy a shock infinite than it seemed

1004
01:04:15.360 --> 01:04:18.920
like initially. But I as makes
sense. But I assume none of that

1005
01:04:18.920 --> 01:04:23.039
stuf's gonna get answered by the end
of this first half, right, Yeah,

1006
01:04:23.079 --> 01:04:24.639
you have to, and I don't. I don't know when that other

1007
01:04:24.679 --> 01:04:29.320
half's coming out, so I'm kind
of breecing to be disappointed by not getting

1008
01:04:29.320 --> 01:04:31.360
any answers at the end of this
one. The next one is another part

1009
01:04:31.360 --> 01:04:34.320
of this round. They split.
They split this thing into it's it's literally

1010
01:04:34.400 --> 01:04:40.719
called like Part one or episode one, but just seeing seeing rapture, seeing

1011
01:04:40.719 --> 01:04:43.119
that kind of familiar setting, but
in this you know, you know,

1012
01:04:43.159 --> 01:04:45.880
it's six years later obviously, just
the graphics are way way better. Like

1013
01:04:45.920 --> 01:04:49.880
that's it's been really really interesting to
see that. Yeah, I kind of

1014
01:04:49.920 --> 01:04:53.960
still don't care about the gameplay that
much now that I'm fighting splicers again,

1015
01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:59.239
but it's still a cool place to
be. Do they have the old plasmids.

1016
01:04:59.760 --> 01:05:02.119
No, it's just straight up the
stuff from Infinite although they call them

1017
01:05:02.119 --> 01:05:06.679
plasmids like if you go to your
wheel, yeah, they they're like,

1018
01:05:06.760 --> 01:05:13.159
you know, select a plasmid.
Not it's bullshit, no, because one

1019
01:05:13.159 --> 01:05:17.880
of the audiologs that you pick up
very directly explains why there were plasmids in

1020
01:05:18.079 --> 01:05:23.480
Colombia. It's crazy, it's weird. It's really weird stuff. Like,

1021
01:05:23.519 --> 01:05:26.079
if you're interested in that in that
lore at all, you should go check

1022
01:05:26.119 --> 01:05:28.880
it out. But at the same
time, it's hard. It's hard to

1023
01:05:29.000 --> 01:05:33.199
really, you know, with the
nature of their being infinite multiverses and such

1024
01:05:33.320 --> 01:05:35.840
like, it's hard to kind of
even but it's a lot more specific than

1025
01:05:35.920 --> 01:05:41.440
that. Yeah, it's it's real
weird technical detail about the plasmids and how

1026
01:05:41.719 --> 01:05:45.199
how they became vigors and stuff like
that, like characters from Infinite are referenced

1027
01:05:45.719 --> 01:05:48.320
in these audio logs. Weird.
Yeah, that's what makes it so weird.

1028
01:05:48.400 --> 01:05:51.360
But without any any kind of preamble
about like, oh, they came

1029
01:05:51.440 --> 01:05:57.039
through this terror and reality and took
our stuff, Like they just drop the

1030
01:05:57.159 --> 01:06:00.400
names of characters from Infinite Infinite where
they were. So I never I never

1031
01:06:00.519 --> 01:06:02.800
followed up on that rapture. People
were saying, well, yeah, so

1032
01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:04.199
there was that stuff. Well,
I mean, you know, it was

1033
01:06:04.280 --> 01:06:09.360
basically all but stated that Songbird was
based on Big Daddy designs or whatever,

1034
01:06:09.480 --> 01:06:12.880
you know, like they they've almost
came out and said, we peered into

1035
01:06:12.920 --> 01:06:16.719
this other reality and took this technology. But I guess that clash in the

1036
01:06:16.760 --> 01:06:20.079
Clouds you could buy some of the
unlocks in that gallery, you could buy

1037
01:06:20.199 --> 01:06:25.000
basically explain the plasma stuff more directly, So I guess this ties into that,

1038
01:06:25.280 --> 01:06:29.039
but it's still just it's it's weird. It's weird to pick up audiologs

1039
01:06:29.079 --> 01:06:31.400
from characters that you remember from the
first BioShock and hear them talking about characters

1040
01:06:31.440 --> 01:06:34.239
from Infinite. Yeah. I think
it's crazy. Yeah, So between that

1041
01:06:34.280 --> 01:06:38.760
stuff and like Elizabeth sort of little
intrigue here and there about where she came

1042
01:06:38.800 --> 01:06:42.639
from, and like Booker can't remember
what year he came to Rapture. It's

1043
01:06:42.760 --> 01:06:45.360
weird stuff like that, right,
Like I'm really curious to see where that

1044
01:06:45.360 --> 01:06:50.480
stuff goes. Oh jeez, I'm
over here watching c S keynotes with no

1045
01:06:50.679 --> 01:06:55.599
volume up on whatever. This the
track aster just has some feed of whatever

1046
01:06:55.639 --> 01:06:59.639
scenet is doing, and it's this
maker bought thing and just literally says,

1047
01:06:59.719 --> 01:07:02.320
joy the conversation. It's on the
screen. I feel like I need to

1048
01:07:02.360 --> 01:07:09.679
drink or something. The hashtag is
MakerBot. Of course, join the conversation.

1049
01:07:09.800 --> 01:07:12.760
They're gonna start selling. They have
an in house team making three D

1050
01:07:12.880 --> 01:07:15.760
models that you can buy and print
out on your maker Bot. That's their

1051
01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:20.880
announcement. It's like trucks and stuff
for kids to paint. So buy yourself

1052
01:07:20.920 --> 01:07:25.679
a macrobot. I don't know.
That seems crazy. We had We had

1053
01:07:25.920 --> 01:07:30.599
MSNBC on for a lot up at
the Better Place in Tahoe, and those

1054
01:07:30.679 --> 01:07:34.840
guys love three D printers really,
like like they're they're always talking about like

1055
01:07:35.000 --> 01:07:38.079
bad things you can do with it, as like you can print guns.

1056
01:07:38.239 --> 01:07:40.559
No, it's like, this is
the future. Everyone's gonna want a three

1057
01:07:40.599 --> 01:07:43.760
D printer. What's havin in this
holiday? Everyone's buy three D printers?

1058
01:07:45.159 --> 01:07:51.000
Yeah, everybody. Yeah. It
was like I don't know anyone that outside

1059
01:07:51.039 --> 01:07:55.760
of Will Smith, I don't even
know anyone that really knows what a three

1060
01:07:55.840 --> 01:07:59.760
D printer is now that I think
about it, like, it's not oh

1061
01:08:00.159 --> 01:08:05.559
Ce and C Music a plastic factory. Yeah, I'm gonna make you extrude

1062
01:08:05.719 --> 01:08:12.960
to you. Is that dope enough? Indeed? Well, I spent my

1063
01:08:13.079 --> 01:08:16.000
time. Yeah, I didn't really
do that much like hanging out with friends

1064
01:08:16.039 --> 01:08:18.680
here and there. Some people will
come by, went out, saw some

1065
01:08:18.840 --> 01:08:24.640
people, you know, dinner party, this, venture out to bars that,

1066
01:08:26.399 --> 01:08:29.920
so this and that, this and
that. Yeah, I did I

1067
01:08:30.000 --> 01:08:31.520
build up quite a bit of that
stink you were talking about. The fun

1068
01:08:32.479 --> 01:08:35.840
there was, Yeah, there was
like is that enjoyable? Well I'm not,

1069
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:42.000
yeah, Or is it more just
that the the effort to make yourself

1070
01:08:42.039 --> 01:08:45.840
clean is not outweighed by the groadiness
of sitting around in your own filth?

1071
01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:46.359
Well it was. It was.
It was this thing of just like,

1072
01:08:46.520 --> 01:08:48.560
well, you know, I'm not
doing anything today. So I also had

1073
01:08:48.640 --> 01:08:51.199
like all the friends friends like traveling
out of town and stuff. So it

1074
01:08:51.279 --> 01:08:54.600
was like like, oh, I'm
gonna go hang out with Oh, that's

1075
01:08:54.680 --> 01:08:59.239
right, they totally left, So
I'm just gonna hang out here and that's

1076
01:08:59.279 --> 01:09:02.239
cool too. And then once you've
committed to that, then it's like,

1077
01:09:02.399 --> 01:09:06.279
well, I don't necessarily have to
like get dressed today. Yeah, you

1078
01:09:06.279 --> 01:09:09.439
don't have to be presentable. I
understand, it's just I don't know.

1079
01:09:09.680 --> 01:09:12.800
See there's a part with having a
kid though, or that's like a dad.

1080
01:09:12.920 --> 01:09:15.119
Now I feel like I'm gonna leave
the house like this. I don't

1081
01:09:15.439 --> 01:09:17.680
care. I just finding a change. So I woke up. Who do

1082
01:09:17.760 --> 01:09:20.439
you have to impress? Nobody's not
like you need to attract a mate.

1083
01:09:20.680 --> 01:09:24.399
Nope, just gonna go out because
I'm going with like a playground, right,

1084
01:09:24.479 --> 01:09:27.479
I'm just gonna sit there and like
run around like I'm just gonna put

1085
01:09:27.520 --> 01:09:31.239
on my shoes and like let's maybe
and let's go outside, go out,

1086
01:09:31.560 --> 01:09:33.840
go out, and your sweat pants. I left the house. I didn't

1087
01:09:33.920 --> 01:09:36.920
even have My wife was driving.
I was like, oh, you know,

1088
01:09:36.920 --> 01:09:39.920
I guess stopped by the story and
I picked something up. Oh,

1089
01:09:40.119 --> 01:09:44.079
I don't even have my wallet or
my phone. Yeah, that's insane.

1090
01:09:44.279 --> 01:09:45.319
That's great living right there. Yeah. I was just like, oh,

1091
01:09:45.399 --> 01:09:48.920
because they're pajamas or you know whatever, they weren't. It doesn't matter what

1092
01:09:48.960 --> 01:09:51.880
I'm waiting I bought. I bought
a new pair of sweat pants at the

1093
01:09:51.920 --> 01:09:55.880
beginning, a little bit before the
beginning of the break, and those really

1094
01:09:55.920 --> 01:09:59.039
paid dividends. But the pockets are
really shallow on them. So the one

1095
01:09:59.079 --> 01:10:01.880
time I did decide like, all
right, I need to drive somewhere real

1096
01:10:02.000 --> 01:10:06.520
quick. These cheeseburgers are not just
gonna show up. I wait here,

1097
01:10:06.680 --> 01:10:09.960
So I mean, I'm not getting
out of the car, so I don't.

1098
01:10:10.039 --> 01:10:12.239
I can leave the house in these
sweatpants and that'll be okay. The

1099
01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:15.319
car is an extension of my house. The wallet fell out, the wallet

1100
01:10:15.359 --> 01:10:16.439
fell out, yeah, the wall, the shallow pockets on the pants,

1101
01:10:16.479 --> 01:10:20.000
wallet fell out, the car.
I'm like digging around four going yes,

1102
01:10:21.000 --> 01:10:24.079
yeah, that's good. Yeah.
You know. I played some games I

1103
01:10:24.119 --> 01:10:26.560
don't know. I played got into
Risk of Rain for a little bit there,

1104
01:10:26.760 --> 01:10:28.880
got to the end of it and
lost, and then said fuck this,

1105
01:10:29.039 --> 01:10:32.720
and they're playing this again. Fuck
you. I think I finally get

1106
01:10:32.760 --> 01:10:35.279
it with that game, Like Patrick
and Alex seemed really into it, and

1107
01:10:35.359 --> 01:10:38.159
I was like, I don't know, Like, no, it's it's it's

1108
01:10:38.199 --> 01:10:42.840
pretty cool. John Carpenter like that
game. Probably it's his. If he

1109
01:10:42.960 --> 01:10:45.800
had a room for a seventh game
on his list, it probably would have

1110
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:47.079
been Risk of Right. Good fun. Please please, it's been a good

1111
01:10:47.119 --> 01:10:54.560
fun. Please. I took all
my PlayStation three games and put them in

1112
01:10:54.640 --> 01:11:00.800
a box. There you go,
yeah, with move controllers and cameras.

1113
01:11:00.920 --> 01:11:04.159
I d camerad the house. When
it comes to old cameras, yeah,

1114
01:11:04.199 --> 01:11:08.640
I took down all the old cameras. How deep were you up? Would

1115
01:11:08.640 --> 01:11:13.319
you have like Xbox Live camm So
in the living room, I had a

1116
01:11:13.399 --> 01:11:20.119
Connect and a PlayStation three camera.
I yes. Uh. In the other

1117
01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:26.640
room, I had a PlayStation three
camera and an Xbox Live Vision. Oh

1118
01:11:26.760 --> 01:11:29.920
yeah wow. I also had a
vision hooked up until about a month ago.

1119
01:11:30.039 --> 01:11:31.600
Yeah. So I yanked all those
out from behind the TV, ran

1120
01:11:31.640 --> 01:11:34.760
all the cables and just threw through
them in in with the What do you

1121
01:11:34.960 --> 01:11:38.399
if you played Burnout Paradise? Yeah, like, you never know when the

1122
01:11:38.479 --> 01:11:41.199
chance to play Uno is going to
present itself. It's true, but I

1123
01:11:41.239 --> 01:11:44.119
don't have an Xbox three sixty hooked
up in that room anymore island. So

1124
01:11:44.560 --> 01:11:49.039
where is the Xbox one version of
Uno? I know it's called the fucking

1125
01:11:49.199 --> 01:11:56.079
Xbox Uno comes with one card and
you have to buy the rest. M

1126
01:11:56.239 --> 01:12:01.439
hm m m. That's well it
would be the other way actually, right,

1127
01:12:01.479 --> 01:12:03.960
because you have all the cards in
me at the paid word of them,

1128
01:12:03.960 --> 01:12:06.600
because otherwise they would just win.
Ye. Hey, do you guys

1129
01:12:06.680 --> 01:12:13.800
want to listen to the Sony keynote? It's starting at six and we have

1130
01:12:13.880 --> 01:12:15.840
a feed of it here. I
don't know, yeah, I mean that's

1131
01:12:16.000 --> 01:12:19.640
this is like I said, we
have set c net feed coming into this

1132
01:12:19.760 --> 01:12:24.840
board. If you wanted to stand
up and tell me how to switch the

1133
01:12:24.880 --> 01:12:28.279
try caster over into getting the seed. It's six at six, that's an

1134
01:12:28.319 --> 01:12:32.000
hour from now. They said,
coming up next Sony Keynote. But I

1135
01:12:32.119 --> 01:12:35.279
think I did read that it was
at six. Well is Vegas at times

1136
01:12:35.319 --> 01:12:38.920
on a way? Oh? Yeah
it is? Okay then, yeah,

1137
01:12:39.279 --> 01:12:42.359
I think it's starting. I think
it will start soon as Yeah, we

1138
01:12:42.399 --> 01:12:45.680
could put that on, although I
mean, isn't that historically I think it

1139
01:12:45.760 --> 01:12:46.680
isn't that. Mostly just let's just
have it as an option. We're not

1140
01:12:46.720 --> 01:12:48.880
gonna I don't I don't necessarily want
to like talk through the whole thing.

1141
01:12:49.600 --> 01:12:54.680
I don't know how much game stuff
there will be his whole yea, yeah,

1142
01:12:54.800 --> 01:12:57.479
yeah. All I know is that
Sony asked us if we were going

1143
01:12:57.520 --> 01:13:01.159
to see, yes, the PlayStation
PRP. So there's they do have some

1144
01:13:01.600 --> 01:13:05.479
kind of thing there somewhere. All
right, you ready, yeah, this

1145
01:13:05.560 --> 01:13:14.560
might get weird this wait a minute. Vegas is also specifica okay that this

1146
01:13:14.680 --> 01:13:16.880
could be an hour away, insistent
it's gonna it's gonna continue with TV,

1147
01:13:16.960 --> 01:13:21.800
so they'll be a massive range of
TVs there. It makes computers, but

1148
01:13:23.079 --> 01:13:26.000
it makes a really good range of
bio computers. It nice. And when

1149
01:13:26.000 --> 01:13:29.039
you talk, when I talk,
do I come through it? I come

1150
01:13:29.039 --> 01:13:31.000
through? Don't know? Now this
sounds fine. Tablet screen and kind of

1151
01:13:31.159 --> 01:13:33.600
things that move around and some things
that move around. All right, well

1152
01:13:33.640 --> 01:13:36.439
we have that as an option in
case, in case anything interesting happens,

1153
01:13:36.479 --> 01:13:39.800
I can fade it up here,
real client, That sounds good. Otherwise

1154
01:13:39.800 --> 01:13:42.600
I'm going to hang out over here
and look at Brian. I guess it's

1155
01:13:42.760 --> 01:13:45.640
coming in through there are they here? No, this this is coming in

1156
01:13:45.680 --> 01:13:49.640
from Vegas on the roof. I
have no fucking idea what they're doing.

1157
01:13:50.159 --> 01:13:53.239
Yeah, I don't know. I
guess, I don't know. We get

1158
01:13:53.239 --> 01:13:55.680
a studio feed from them. I
never know normally, and I don't know

1159
01:13:55.800 --> 01:13:59.159
why it comes into this room and
it's it's or if they're using it.

1160
01:13:59.359 --> 01:14:02.760
Yeah, are we talking over it
right now? Hi? Hey, as

1161
01:14:02.960 --> 01:14:06.640
Consumer Electronic Show, what do you
think kind of has all this stuff going?

1162
01:14:06.800 --> 01:14:11.960
It's a ton of great TVs here
there. They hold more television before.

1163
01:14:12.119 --> 01:14:14.760
There are so many more channels that
you can watch on these TVs and

1164
01:14:14.800 --> 01:14:17.560
you could on the old sets.
It's very exciting. Talk about New Year's

1165
01:14:17.640 --> 01:14:21.479
resolution. That's right, it's a
much higher resolution. And it's in color.

1166
01:14:23.239 --> 01:14:27.439
Really yeah, I don't know if
that's politically correct anymore. It's a

1167
01:14:27.520 --> 01:14:33.680
television of color HD we call it
now. Oh sorry, yes, yeah,

1168
01:14:33.840 --> 01:14:38.279
sorry, it's geez At the time, I feel really bad. Tell

1169
01:14:38.319 --> 01:14:42.840
me about refrigerators. They're cold,
They're colder than ever before. That's hot

1170
01:14:42.920 --> 01:14:45.479
news. It is hot news.
Off the CS show floor. Car stereos

1171
01:14:45.600 --> 01:14:53.760
totally non existent, not anymore.
Car refrigerators. Bang, they're booming in

1172
01:14:53.920 --> 01:14:58.720
dash refrigerator. You want to shred
papers and you're in dash paper shredder.

1173
01:14:58.760 --> 01:15:02.680
I do you're in luck like this
license and registration that don't belong to me

1174
01:15:02.920 --> 01:15:06.479
in this car I'm driving, Yes, exactly as they're pulling you over.

1175
01:15:06.760 --> 01:15:12.680
Just all this paperwork nothing. I
don't know. I said, why the

1176
01:15:12.720 --> 01:15:15.800
smell like shredded marijuana. I don't
know what are you talking about. Throw

1177
01:15:15.840 --> 01:15:20.239
all the shreddings into your still.
This car is from Colorado. It's perfectly

1178
01:15:20.680 --> 01:15:24.560
I was transporting it for first running
the car. Just throw it all into

1179
01:15:24.600 --> 01:15:27.880
your end dash gas fireplace. There
you go. It's bare the air.

1180
01:15:28.119 --> 01:15:30.960
Yeah, he was holding marijuana in
this car, but it was Colorado.

1181
01:15:31.039 --> 01:15:33.840
He had in Colorado at the time, so it was fine. His car

1182
01:15:33.920 --> 01:15:39.119
is holding it for from sold out
on day one of course, of course

1183
01:15:39.279 --> 01:15:41.520
it was like a huge line.
Like I was watching, the knock was

1184
01:15:41.600 --> 01:15:45.119
just depleted. That's just a scam
from the marijuana companies to make it look

1185
01:15:45.159 --> 01:15:47.560
like they're selling it. I don't
think there's any real companies yet. They'

1186
01:15:47.560 --> 01:15:51.520
announcing they're sell in numbers, not
their sell through. You think like big

1187
01:15:51.840 --> 01:15:57.800
we'll see there there is a big
weed yet big hemp. You know,

1188
01:15:57.920 --> 01:15:59.800
they like, all right, take
it. I'm not saying it won't get

1189
01:15:59.840 --> 01:16:02.800
there sake. It's legalized on the
federal level right like where it is across

1190
01:16:02.840 --> 01:16:05.760
the country probably a long ways off, so sure. But do you think

1191
01:16:05.840 --> 01:16:10.960
like you'll see like pepsi weed and
like you know, it could could like

1192
01:16:11.159 --> 01:16:15.800
weed Brownie company, baby, Yeah, but what I mean company? The

1193
01:16:15.880 --> 01:16:20.640
Sony keynote really is is starting now, I think Mike Blayer so no,

1194
01:16:21.600 --> 01:16:27.359
sorry, sorry, showing the intromontage. This picture of a camera, Hey,

1195
01:16:27.439 --> 01:16:30.800
everybody, this picture of some sort
of watch a picture of some headphones

1196
01:16:30.840 --> 01:16:34.239
with a bloggy. There's a picture
of a PlayStation four a phone. Oh

1197
01:16:34.319 --> 01:16:40.359
we really need that monitor back.
I know it's better just listening to it,

1198
01:16:40.399 --> 01:16:44.279
all right, I'll Madge drive us
happy and now welcome to the stage,

1199
01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:54.840
Sony Group CEO Kazhai, thank you, thank you. It's been a

1200
01:16:54.920 --> 01:17:00.520
great year. Persony. Please turn

1201
01:17:00.600 --> 01:17:10.359
I can't because I live Tyler.
Hello, all right, h Beyonce.

1202
01:17:10.760 --> 01:17:14.520
There's just that's Beyonce dancing. There's
a man while wearing headphones. It's a

1203
01:17:14.560 --> 01:17:18.039
woman wearing headphones. She's boxing.
It's great stuff. Man. There's a

1204
01:17:18.039 --> 01:17:21.960
PlayStation four control anyway, picture a
infamous A little bit of Infamous right there,

1205
01:17:25.800 --> 01:17:35.079
let's actually see who they are going
to introduce its great music. Yeah,

1206
01:17:38.520 --> 01:17:41.319
it's just there's their pant. It's
a panning shot of the crowd.

1207
01:17:42.680 --> 01:17:50.880
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Caswell. HOLI I should have realized that Di

1208
01:17:51.079 --> 01:17:56.640
you just want to bet? What
do you do it? Good afternoon,

1209
01:17:56.680 --> 01:18:02.439
everyone, and welcome to our CES
twenty fourteen press conference. I want to

1210
01:18:02.760 --> 01:18:09.479
thank you for joining us here today, and to everyone watching VR live stream,

1211
01:18:09.760 --> 01:18:12.800
we'd like to extend a very warm
welcome as well. He's talking to

1212
01:18:12.880 --> 01:18:16.760
me and all of you and Aline
you can participate in the conversation on Twitter.

1213
01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:33.560
All right. Oh man. Yeah, so I didn't do too much

1214
01:18:33.720 --> 01:18:40.880
over the break. I got into
eyeball in some Commodore sixty four games and

1215
01:18:40.960 --> 01:18:44.319
stuff like that. Hot New Ones, yeah, hot and Hot New jams,

1216
01:18:46.000 --> 01:18:50.680
little, played a little RBI baseball
okay video that's up on the site,

1217
01:18:53.079 --> 01:18:57.159
and uh yeah, I don't know
that's about it. I had multiple

1218
01:18:57.199 --> 01:19:00.760
opportunities where it was like, oh, maybe i'll play some some games.

1219
01:19:00.960 --> 01:19:04.319
Yeah it's like some proper modern video
games, and then just went nah,

1220
01:19:05.159 --> 01:19:10.359
I'm all right. I did end
up playing a little bit of Battlefield okay,

1221
01:19:10.600 --> 01:19:13.560
like Sunday, like I'm going back
to work tomorrow. No. PS

1222
01:19:13.640 --> 01:19:16.119
four. How was it like multiplayers? Right? Yeah? Ok, yeah,

1223
01:19:16.159 --> 01:19:18.960
yeah, it's uh. I was
able to connect to servers and play

1224
01:19:19.279 --> 01:19:24.000
a couple of graphical glitches here and
there that I noticed, but it did

1225
01:19:24.079 --> 01:19:29.159
not crash. Well that's something the
friends aspect of it of like are my

1226
01:19:29.279 --> 01:19:30.760
friends playing on servers and all that
other stuff? None of that works.

1227
01:19:32.600 --> 01:19:39.720
But you know, I was not
having major trouble playing it. Battlefield's weird,

1228
01:19:39.800 --> 01:19:42.279
like you know, it's every time
I get back into Battlefield there for

1229
01:19:42.319 --> 01:19:45.680
a little bit and there's like this
moment where I think I'm gonna upgrade the

1230
01:19:45.720 --> 01:19:48.359
premium. Yeah, man, this
game seems cool, like I want to

1231
01:19:48.399 --> 01:19:54.199
see what these matt packs are and
yeah, and then like it's like just

1232
01:19:54.600 --> 01:19:59.640
busted enough to where I's going.
Nah, I'm good, and then turn

1233
01:19:59.720 --> 01:20:04.600
it off off. Yeah that's the
same. Yeah. Yeah, so I

1234
01:20:04.640 --> 01:20:09.039
don't know that's do unlock any dope
new guns? Not? I I don't

1235
01:20:09.039 --> 01:20:11.920
know, like I got you know, you're assault rifle. No, no

1236
01:20:12.359 --> 01:20:15.279
assault rifle. I don't like shotguns. You gotta get too close. Get

1237
01:20:15.319 --> 01:20:21.800
the slugs. I don't know,
yeah, it's right now. It's the

1238
01:20:21.920 --> 01:20:29.239
thing I realized playing it yesterday is
that I just I hadn't been I'd been

1239
01:20:29.319 --> 01:20:32.079
playing it like Call of Duty in
terms of like weapons selection and and how

1240
01:20:32.119 --> 01:20:36.520
it was building my load out.
And I build most of my Call of

1241
01:20:36.600 --> 01:20:42.800
Duty loadouts for like the size of
Call of Duty maps, Like I don't

1242
01:20:42.880 --> 01:20:45.239
use an acog scope that has a
zoom on it because that's just gets in

1243
01:20:45.319 --> 01:20:50.960
the way, Like I don't need
that much zoom. But for battlefield where

1244
01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:56.520
you are having these more distant encounters
with with other players, like that acog

1245
01:20:56.600 --> 01:21:01.119
scope is actually like the perfect like
medium range weapon or you know, attachment

1246
01:21:01.199 --> 01:21:04.840
for my style. So as soon
as I put that scope on there,

1247
01:21:05.279 --> 01:21:09.079
like I just started cleaning up nice. I was like, all right,

1248
01:21:09.159 --> 01:21:11.920
okay, all right, this is
this is what I've been missing the whole

1249
01:21:11.960 --> 01:21:15.720
time, Like this is this is
working now is working a lot better.

1250
01:21:15.920 --> 01:21:18.760
So so I started having a pretty
okay time with it. Nice. Yeah,

1251
01:21:20.479 --> 01:21:25.319
yeah it is. It's uh yeah, have you been playing four at

1252
01:21:25.359 --> 01:21:27.920
all? Or you guys are still
playing three? Still three here and there?

1253
01:21:28.159 --> 01:21:30.880
Uh. I played a little more
before, but not not enough then

1254
01:21:30.920 --> 01:21:33.640
that with my family. Yeah,
I think it's it's interesting. The more

1255
01:21:33.680 --> 01:21:35.680
I played it. A little bit
more I played, I think it's interesting

1256
01:21:35.720 --> 01:21:40.000
what they did with some of the
class stuff, mix it up and the

1257
01:21:40.279 --> 01:21:43.000
play listen, watch, learn,
discover, communicate, create, share.

1258
01:21:43.399 --> 01:21:46.039
So those are the words that they
have on screen, yeshazzling New four K

1259
01:21:46.239 --> 01:21:56.920
displays the watch, and at each
of this past fall the keyword was created.

1260
01:21:57.319 --> 01:21:59.720
He's gonna go through all of them. Yeah, he's He's gonna step

1261
01:21:59.760 --> 01:22:02.920
you through the entire philosophy behind this
one slide. It's amazing. You still

1262
01:22:02.960 --> 01:22:09.760
hear playing games to playing music,
watching or participating in sports. It's hitting

1263
01:22:09.840 --> 01:22:14.079
play on your favorite device, but
above all, you're lumping all that into

1264
01:22:14.119 --> 01:22:16.680
play. If you push play on
a DVD player, that's the same as

1265
01:22:16.680 --> 01:22:20.079
playing video games play. I don't
know, it's our corporate st leave me

1266
01:22:20.159 --> 01:22:25.640
alone. I came up with this
last night. I had been drinking.

1267
01:22:27.640 --> 01:22:30.279
They told me twenty minutes, here
you go. Sorry, I'm sorry,

1268
01:22:30.439 --> 01:22:35.479
sorry, I'm sorry. I'm winging
it. Yeah, so, I you

1269
01:22:35.560 --> 01:22:40.039
know, I guess I'll probably stick
with Battlefield. It was a weird thing

1270
01:22:40.079 --> 01:22:42.880
though. After I played some Battlefield, I put Call of Duty in and

1271
01:22:43.800 --> 01:22:48.880
really cleaned up in that too,
like really shooting people hardy one game.

1272
01:22:48.920 --> 01:22:53.760
Can you sort of hone you make
you better at the other. Whenever I

1273
01:22:53.840 --> 01:22:56.359
got bad, counterstrike up to go
back to day defeat and that would bring

1274
01:22:56.399 --> 01:23:00.479
me up because you train your way
back. O. Man, you got

1275
01:23:00.560 --> 01:23:05.199
one shot. Sure, yeah,
yep, yeah, absolutely make account m

1276
01:23:05.359 --> 01:23:11.560
hm yeah. Pretty good break overall. Yeah. I thought, so it

1277
01:23:11.760 --> 01:23:14.640
last another six months, that'd be
good. Yeah, so that'd be great.

1278
01:23:14.680 --> 01:23:18.720
I definitely got the Sunday blues over
No, I'd like by Sunday.

1279
01:23:18.760 --> 01:23:21.399
I was like, because I think
I you know, that's how I managed

1280
01:23:21.399 --> 01:23:25.840
the break was. I was like, I said, I didn't do shit,

1281
01:23:26.079 --> 01:23:28.000
So you're ready to come back?
Oh yeah. By the end of

1282
01:23:28.000 --> 01:23:29.319
it, I was like, all
right, I gotta, you know,

1283
01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:35.239
speak again. Instead of going whole
days where I don't have to because there's

1284
01:23:35.279 --> 01:23:41.720
no one here speak to other than
myself. Turn on that webcam. Just

1285
01:23:41.840 --> 01:23:45.920
get to the world. Talk to
the world. Hey, world, have

1286
01:23:46.000 --> 01:23:53.479
a shower in a couple of days. God. Sometimes not sure if it's

1287
01:23:53.479 --> 01:23:58.159
me or something else is wafting in. I haven't drinking, let's talk,

1288
01:23:58.279 --> 01:24:01.520
let's talk talk. Yeah, I
get sure what it was. The channel

1289
01:24:01.560 --> 01:24:06.079
you have to do on the PlayStation
four Yeah, yeah, play good play

1290
01:24:06.199 --> 01:24:11.079
room and then reach out. I've
had some people say that that's gotten way

1291
01:24:11.159 --> 01:24:14.840
crazier that there's definitely been. I
mean there was a stream. There was

1292
01:24:14.880 --> 01:24:16.680
a stream. I saw a screen
grap of it floating around of people just

1293
01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:21.279
straight up doing it on a playroom
stream. Really a little robot circle around

1294
01:24:21.319 --> 01:24:25.399
the streame. I guess I don't
remember that part. But sparks, sparks

1295
01:24:25.479 --> 01:24:29.800
flying out everywhere. That's not a
person, that's not a person that's oh

1296
01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:35.199
blush. Well if you can,
you got everybody's got to get it out

1297
01:24:35.239 --> 01:24:41.640
of the system. New technology,
porn, you know, paves the way.

1298
01:24:42.239 --> 01:24:45.920
That's true. Everything porn does pave
the way, and then it never

1299
01:24:45.000 --> 01:24:50.600
goes away. Once it's there,
it's there forever. Like weeds. Hm,

1300
01:24:51.359 --> 01:24:56.640
you guys want to talk about some
news? Is there nothing happen now?

1301
01:24:56.880 --> 01:24:59.119
There's there's a couple of things.
I don't turn the volume up.

1302
01:24:59.560 --> 01:25:04.279
I would say breaking and gritty detail
that helped to tell what is arguably TV's

1303
01:25:04.359 --> 01:25:10.720
best story. Is all available for
the first time in stunning four K,

1304
01:25:12.439 --> 01:25:16.000
and this was a true collaboration and
demonstration of the breadth of Sony's entertainment offerings

1305
01:25:16.479 --> 01:25:23.920
including the best picture quality Sony Pictures, four K recording and mastering technologies,

1306
01:25:24.399 --> 01:25:30.880
and the power entertainment Now was one. D three also know that consumers want

1307
01:25:30.960 --> 01:25:35.079
choice, so we'd be remiss to
offer only one option. That's why we

1308
01:25:35.239 --> 01:25:41.359
can thank you to secure partners to
expand the world of four K entertainment even

1309
01:25:41.479 --> 01:25:46.760
further. These include five hundred Picks
for Photos, YouTube and more. Five

1310
01:25:46.880 --> 01:25:53.039
hundred Picks is a worldwide premier photo
community, and new four K Bravia TVs

1311
01:25:53.399 --> 01:25:57.640
will have access to that community,
so consumers will be able to enjoy high

1312
01:25:57.800 --> 01:26:03.880
quality four K photos. I'm so
sick of hearing about four thousand photos.

1313
01:26:04.000 --> 01:26:09.760
I'm only just begun to collaborate with
YouTube on a new Internet video decoder.

1314
01:26:11.439 --> 01:26:15.199
Video decoder, It's a ring nine, will be built into our new products

1315
01:26:15.359 --> 01:26:18.680
in the near FIEU. Today,
I'm really excited to announce. I'm really

1316
01:26:18.720 --> 01:26:24.119
excited to announce that we're going to
four K on YouTube content, no changeing

1317
01:26:24.159 --> 01:26:30.079
bit rates, taken a giant leap
forward. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome

1318
01:26:30.119 --> 01:26:36.000
the CEO of Netflix, mister Reed
Hastings. We're gonna offer you the movies

1319
01:26:36.079 --> 01:26:40.880
you don't want to watch anymore in
a resolution that they were not originally shot

1320
01:26:40.920 --> 01:26:45.479
in. Thank you good night.
I can get Netflix on my TV.

1321
01:26:46.479 --> 01:26:54.680
Yeah boom, it's four K.
Shit seems like such fucking bullshit. It

1322
01:26:54.800 --> 01:26:56.680
is, swear to god. I
mean, it's just it is this year's

1323
01:26:56.680 --> 01:27:00.279
three D. It's just their way
to try to sell new TVs because body

1324
01:27:00.279 --> 01:27:02.279
has already got TVs. They're happy
ones now. I think that like higher

1325
01:27:02.279 --> 01:27:06.560
resolutions sounds great. Yeah, and
I guess, you know, maybe it's

1326
01:27:06.600 --> 01:27:12.199
smart that they're out here talking content
first, but hey, you can look

1327
01:27:12.199 --> 01:27:15.600
at photos. Hey, you can
watch YouTube videos. Like YouTube's gonna be

1328
01:27:15.760 --> 01:27:19.000
like a They're gonna pave the way
for video quality. That's they're they're gonna

1329
01:27:19.000 --> 01:27:24.079
be the ones because you know,
all the consumers streams consumer four K.

1330
01:27:24.680 --> 01:27:27.960
You know technology out there that allows
users to upload their stuff in native four

1331
01:27:28.039 --> 01:27:30.880
K? Oh? Yeah, yeah, maybe it's the YouTube originals. We're

1332
01:27:30.880 --> 01:27:34.000
all gonna be in a fourtune you
two. I think already does technically support

1333
01:27:34.000 --> 01:27:38.560
four K, but like, who
who can record in four K? I

1334
01:27:38.640 --> 01:27:41.760
can? What are you talking about? No? Yeah, I don't know.

1335
01:27:41.960 --> 01:27:45.359
I think doesn't. The new doesn't
the newest GoPro actually do like fifteen

1336
01:27:45.439 --> 01:27:49.479
frames per second four K or something
like that. What like what compression on

1337
01:27:49.520 --> 01:27:54.840
it? I don't know, no
idea four K, four kilobytes per sect.

1338
01:27:54.920 --> 01:27:57.920
Yeah, that's the bit, right, Yeah, great, let's see

1339
01:27:57.920 --> 01:28:00.680
what this guy's to say. And
so we're working with only on that to

1340
01:28:00.760 --> 01:28:02.760
come out and be able to show
on the Brovia TV. So there's gonna

1341
01:28:02.760 --> 01:28:06.159
be a lot of content. It's
a chance for the Internet to really shine

1342
01:28:09.039 --> 01:28:12.039
because none of the people making TV
and movies give a funk about this resolution

1343
01:28:12.119 --> 01:28:17.279
bullshit. We have roped in the
internet in quotes to make content great.

1344
01:28:18.119 --> 01:28:23.520
Great, I'd like to watch something
in four kN and four K TV totally.

1345
01:28:23.920 --> 01:28:27.159
Yeah, I mean once it's you
know, like obviously, all of

1346
01:28:27.239 --> 01:28:30.479
these things will progress, resolutions will
continue to get better, like that's just

1347
01:28:30.600 --> 01:28:32.399
the nature of things, right,
Well, the Internet will get faster,

1348
01:28:32.760 --> 01:28:35.960
storage will get cheaper. Yeah,
just right now. I don't think we're

1349
01:28:36.119 --> 01:28:39.520
obviously there's a point in the future
where four K will make sense. But

1350
01:28:39.760 --> 01:28:43.920
this year I don't think is the
year. Well maybe they're laying the foundations.

1351
01:28:44.199 --> 01:28:45.680
I don't know, but yeah,
for selling these TVs this year,

1352
01:28:46.000 --> 01:28:49.159
that seems selling the TVs is putting
the cart before the horse, Like getting

1353
01:28:49.199 --> 01:28:53.199
color that was a big deal.
Going widescreen, I think it was a

1354
01:28:53.239 --> 01:28:57.039
big deal. Flat panels instead of
HD was a huge leap. It was

1355
01:28:57.079 --> 01:28:59.920
a big deal. We are we
are into diminishing returns. He didn't seem

1356
01:28:59.920 --> 01:29:02.640
like usually at the time like when
it when it was like finally reaching a

1357
01:29:02.680 --> 01:29:06.800
point where it was a consumer level
upgrade, not like when like when I

1358
01:29:06.840 --> 01:29:10.079
would go to CES and they'd be
like, this is an HDTV. You

1359
01:29:10.159 --> 01:29:13.119
see it and be like this is
fucking mind blowing because it was all their

1360
01:29:13.199 --> 01:29:15.439
custom content. There was you know, like underwater shots and all this great

1361
01:29:15.439 --> 01:29:19.399
looking stuff. But when I went
out and bought my first HDTV, like,

1362
01:29:19.560 --> 01:29:23.680
yeah, it look nice, but
the content generally wasn't there. But

1363
01:29:23.760 --> 01:29:26.119
it wasn't know, maybe you got
one way before I did. But I

1364
01:29:26.199 --> 01:29:28.720
got mine into first one in two
thousand and eight, and it blew my

1365
01:29:28.800 --> 01:29:31.079
fucking mind. Yeah I got from
the day I got mine and hooked an

1366
01:29:31.079 --> 01:29:33.279
original Xbox up to it. Okay, so that's the thing. By the

1367
01:29:33.319 --> 01:29:38.039
time I got an HDTV, like
PS three and three sixty were well established,

1368
01:29:38.479 --> 01:29:45.159
Like I was getting HD channels through
Rabbit ears that seven twenty two did

1369
01:29:45.199 --> 01:29:46.079
seven twenty there were a few games, Yeah, there were a few games

1370
01:29:46.119 --> 01:29:48.159
that did it, and there were
some PS two games that did four ADP.

1371
01:29:48.319 --> 01:29:50.560
But I mean that's kind of where
we're at with games on four K

1372
01:29:50.800 --> 01:29:55.439
now, Like these new consoles can't
even touch four K. Yeah. Also,

1373
01:29:55.479 --> 01:29:59.159
it looks like what's gonna look like
reported F zero x four k,

1374
01:29:59.439 --> 01:30:03.000
right, it's like flow in four
K, right or something. But like,

1375
01:30:03.159 --> 01:30:06.800
yeah, I think they diminishing returns
at this point. Yeah, Like

1376
01:30:06.960 --> 01:30:10.319
when I went four by three to
widescreen, I thought that was pretty cool.

1377
01:30:10.359 --> 01:30:13.520
Yeah, like that was a huge
deal going for that was just just

1378
01:30:13.600 --> 01:30:15.720
straight up in different shape. Like
the resolution stuff, Like, yeah,

1379
01:30:15.760 --> 01:30:18.000
I look better, But I think
it's one of those things of like also

1380
01:30:18.119 --> 01:30:23.479
being like a PC owner at some
point, the resolution stuff just it doesn't

1381
01:30:24.159 --> 01:30:27.239
like I've already been running pretty high
resolutions PC. So seen TV, it's

1382
01:30:27.279 --> 01:30:29.760
like, okay, great, it's
catching up. Great, Like Blue Ray.

1383
01:30:30.199 --> 01:30:31.239
I don't know if you guys still
watch blue rays, but they look

1384
01:30:31.279 --> 01:30:34.520
pretty fucking good. Yeah on my
TV at home, Like I don't need

1385
01:30:34.600 --> 01:30:36.760
movies to look better than that at
the moment. I want somebody to get

1386
01:30:36.840 --> 01:30:40.560
up there with a paint roller,
paint the wall and then turn it on

1387
01:30:40.800 --> 01:30:44.399
and say like, I just made
a TV. Here's here's TV in a

1388
01:30:44.439 --> 01:30:45.600
can. Yeah, yeah, hit
paint the wall and it turns into a

1389
01:30:45.640 --> 01:30:51.199
TV. This new electron paint,
uh fed is gonna get Yeah, that's

1390
01:30:51.439 --> 01:30:55.000
the fucking Panasonic gets up there and
says, yeah, I don't know what

1391
01:30:55.039 --> 01:30:59.720
Sony was talking about. Check this
out here. Here's the Sony press conferences.

1392
01:30:59.760 --> 01:31:01.680
I just painted it, like that's
what I want. Somebody to get

1393
01:31:01.760 --> 01:31:04.880
up there. We haven't told anybody
and we're so surprised it didn't leak.

1394
01:31:05.479 --> 01:31:09.760
Check it out. Here's a man
covered in that paint. He's now a

1395
01:31:09.840 --> 01:31:15.720
movie well dead, with upcoming twenty
fourteen projects ranging from Spike Lee's newest movie,

1396
01:31:16.319 --> 01:31:20.520
The Sweet Blood of Jesus, to
Think Like a Man Too, and

1397
01:31:20.680 --> 01:31:28.199
About Last Night on TV. Our
fifty five cameras are now being used by

1398
01:31:28.279 --> 01:31:33.880
Hulu to produce an original four K
series and Sony's Crackle platform, wanting many

1399
01:31:33.920 --> 01:31:42.479
of its Sony's Crackle platform they owned
Crack. I guess TV shows like Trophy

1400
01:31:42.520 --> 01:31:46.159
Wife Hot new TV shows like Trophy
Wife are using it. So four K,

1401
01:31:46.720 --> 01:31:49.119
fuck are you doing? I don't
know. Yeah, the content is

1402
01:31:49.159 --> 01:31:54.119
there, clearly. They showed spider
Man on that screen earlier. Four K.

1403
01:31:54.319 --> 01:31:57.279
Spider Man's the leader of all new
technology the PlayStation three. Four K

1404
01:31:57.600 --> 01:32:02.000
like that spider Man is the harbinger
of new expensive deck. Spider Man goes,

1405
01:32:02.119 --> 01:32:08.159
the rest will follow. Yeah,
okay, yeah, but let's see

1406
01:32:08.159 --> 01:32:11.600
what's happened in na CS news.
Stuff happened. I just thought of a

1407
01:32:11.640 --> 01:32:16.399
couple. Two K has erased all
mentions of uh, the Major League Baseball

1408
01:32:16.560 --> 01:32:19.199
from its website and all this other
stuff. It looks like they are out

1409
01:32:19.239 --> 01:32:28.239
of the baseball gamere noticed that there
were Yeah, they were the exclusive rights

1410
01:32:28.319 --> 01:32:31.239
holder for a third party baseball,
So that meant EA could not make a

1411
01:32:31.279 --> 01:32:34.880
baseball game, but that Sony could. So this year it would seem that

1412
01:32:34.960 --> 01:32:38.880
the only baseball game is gonna hit, is gonna be the show, is

1413
01:32:38.960 --> 01:32:43.600
Sony's game. So unless Microsoft steps
up. Yeah, I mean two k's

1414
01:32:43.600 --> 01:32:47.800
baseball game has not been outstanding for
brings back n or whatever was the XSN

1415
01:32:47.800 --> 01:32:53.000
It's gonna be MLB Inside Pitch twenty
fourteen. It's gonna be huge, huge,

1416
01:32:56.560 --> 01:32:59.520
I feel like baseball video games are
just hard to do in this day

1417
01:32:59.520 --> 01:33:02.399
and age. People really like the
show. It's it's very configurable. It's

1418
01:33:02.439 --> 01:33:05.560
like very true to the game of
baseball because I understand it. But I

1419
01:33:05.600 --> 01:33:10.520
mean I have no fun playing that
game, like for as confusing as most

1420
01:33:10.560 --> 01:33:14.640
sports games have gotten over the years, you know, compared to the sixteen

1421
01:33:14.680 --> 01:33:17.520
bit games and stuff like that.
Like I thought that baseball mini game in

1422
01:33:17.600 --> 01:33:21.159
Link Between World is gonna lame.
Yeah hardly. Yeah, I didn't really

1423
01:33:21.199 --> 01:33:29.159
enjoy it. Yeah, we gotta
hit the yea happened. Not enough control.

1424
01:33:29.680 --> 01:33:34.359
Here's your four KSE system seller soccer
for instance, the World ces.

1425
01:33:35.319 --> 01:33:43.199
We will have two four K projectives
blended to give a full soccer field image.

1426
01:33:45.159 --> 01:33:47.560
This guy seems really blown away about
his full soccer field image. Is

1427
01:33:47.560 --> 01:33:58.520
gonna be fund and some changes,
uh you know around EA, some departures,

1428
01:33:58.560 --> 01:34:02.680
stuff like that Alex Warden feel a
Sperry or the Ran Criterion. Yeah,

1429
01:34:03.159 --> 01:34:06.279
uh, they are no longer with
EA. They announced any plans to

1430
01:34:06.359 --> 01:34:09.960
go somewhere. They say that they're
looking to start their own studio and kind

1431
01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:12.960
of go that route with it.
Cool, wish them the best. Yeah,

1432
01:34:13.039 --> 01:34:16.199
interesting weird, weird history and see
what they come up with. Yeah,

1433
01:34:16.319 --> 01:34:18.199
yeah, you know, it was
kind of just a weird thing for

1434
01:34:18.319 --> 01:34:21.399
Criterion with like most of the developers
moving over to this Ghost Games thing and

1435
01:34:21.479 --> 01:34:25.279
working on Need for Speed. And
I was like, well what is Criterion

1436
01:34:25.359 --> 01:34:27.359
now? And they're like, what
we're working on a thing, like,

1437
01:34:27.520 --> 01:34:32.720
nah, are you I don't know
games? I mean Burnout stuff really went

1438
01:34:32.800 --> 01:34:36.000
places. Yeah, it really did. It's a it's a shame because you

1439
01:34:36.039 --> 01:34:41.399
know, it's like you you got
to think that, like there probably aren't

1440
01:34:41.399 --> 01:34:45.720
too many champions for Burnout left at
EA these days that would be able to

1441
01:34:45.800 --> 01:34:49.199
overcome the kind of inertia that Need
for Speed has in terms of just being

1442
01:34:49.239 --> 01:34:54.079
a bigger brand name and stuff like
that. Is it performing, must be

1443
01:34:54.159 --> 01:34:59.079
selling Need for Speed? Yeah yeah, I mean it would outperform as I

1444
01:34:59.159 --> 01:35:00.840
understand it. Burnout. Yes,
it's just because of the brand. Yes,

1445
01:35:02.119 --> 01:35:03.560
it's weird. And they felt it
was, you know, like the

1446
01:35:03.600 --> 01:35:05.640
brand with the real cars and stuff
like that, that it was just a

1447
01:35:06.199 --> 01:35:11.359
more appealing game to a wider audience
as opposed to like crash them up fake

1448
01:35:11.439 --> 01:35:15.239
cars weird, which too bad.
This is a dumb thing. It's something

1449
01:35:15.279 --> 01:35:17.920
for people to get hung up on
because real cars are boring yep. And

1450
01:35:18.119 --> 01:35:21.640
the fake cars they designed for Burnout
I thought were fucking great. I wouldn't

1451
01:35:21.640 --> 01:35:25.119
even know the difference. Yeah,
yeah, I just I don't care.

1452
01:35:25.159 --> 01:35:27.399
I just want to I want I
want to crash them. Yeah, I

1453
01:35:27.479 --> 01:35:29.720
want it to be fun to drive
them. Yeah. And you know,

1454
01:35:29.920 --> 01:35:31.920
there have been some great I mean
even Criterion did some terrific need for speed

1455
01:35:32.039 --> 01:35:38.760
games in their time with the franchise
and stuff. So I just think they

1456
01:35:39.399 --> 01:35:41.960
was cool. Yeah. I think
even more than the car So they're just

1457
01:35:42.039 --> 01:35:45.960
smart about some of the online and
the multiplayer stuff that was Yeah at the

1458
01:35:45.000 --> 01:35:48.720
time, like it seems totally crazy. Yeah, I mean Burnout Paradise,

1459
01:35:49.039 --> 01:35:53.039
like I said, game of the
generation. It's pretty good, aren't there.

1460
01:35:55.319 --> 01:35:58.479
Stuff. It's the game of the
generation. It's like top five,

1461
01:35:59.199 --> 01:36:03.399
top ten. It's like, I
mean, if you want to say it's

1462
01:36:03.520 --> 01:36:09.239
number two, maybe we could have
that talk about whether Call of Duty four

1463
01:36:09.399 --> 01:36:16.840
is better than Burnout Paradise. But
what Call of Duty two four? That's

1464
01:36:16.880 --> 01:36:21.239
pretty good game too? Yeah?
Important important? Well are we ranking the

1465
01:36:21.279 --> 01:36:26.399
most important games of the generation?
It was? I mean I think it's

1466
01:36:26.479 --> 01:36:29.079
both. I think Call of Duty
four is both what's the generation. I

1467
01:36:29.079 --> 01:36:31.119
don't think it's the best game.
I think the generation is. I think

1468
01:36:31.199 --> 01:36:36.920
that that's how this conversation has to
actually start is defining the terms. I

1469
01:36:36.960 --> 01:36:42.399
would say, we are literally talking
about console games from the Xbox three,

1470
01:36:42.479 --> 01:36:46.560
sixty, PlayStation three and we okay, so no period. I think we

1471
01:36:46.600 --> 01:36:51.439
should cut PC out of it to
to Otherwise you get into time frames and

1472
01:36:51.680 --> 01:36:56.439
years and graphics, hardware and stuff
like that, and it's a weird list.

1473
01:36:56.720 --> 01:37:01.880
But it's a weird list either way. So forty four minimum specs must

1474
01:37:01.960 --> 01:37:05.920
include that. You know, it's
it's a weird Generations don't exist on the

1475
01:37:05.960 --> 01:37:10.399
PC. It's it is forever.
It is eternal. And that's right up

1476
01:37:10.439 --> 01:37:13.119
until the point where they, you
know, make it hard for you to

1477
01:37:13.199 --> 01:37:16.960
run old games. I'd say they
do in insofar as game design on the

1478
01:37:17.000 --> 01:37:19.600
PC is influenced by what the consoles
are doing. You were totally right,

1479
01:37:20.159 --> 01:37:25.880
but but that but that's a weird
gray slivery slope. Yeah, I think

1480
01:37:25.880 --> 01:37:30.039
to make it cleaner, that would
be. That would be the consideration.

1481
01:37:31.159 --> 01:37:34.760
And it is a game console,
and but do you think we should include

1482
01:37:34.760 --> 01:37:41.600
handheld games? And what would that
be? Yeah, that would be because

1483
01:37:41.640 --> 01:37:45.479
like the PSP like launched and withered, and then the Vita launched, all

1484
01:37:45.520 --> 01:37:48.199
in the space of quote unquote flast
generation. Yeah, but you probably don't

1485
01:37:48.199 --> 01:37:51.399
want to include both of those in
this conversation. Be a subcategory. And

1486
01:37:51.520 --> 01:37:55.520
like the DS flourished, but the
three DS came out. Yeah, yeah,

1487
01:37:55.680 --> 01:37:59.039
they both kind of operated on a
weird cycle that was not lined up

1488
01:37:59.159 --> 01:38:03.640
with the console. So to make
it cleanest, we could just talk about

1489
01:38:03.680 --> 01:38:11.439
the console generations the yes, the
big three, unless there is a fourth

1490
01:38:11.479 --> 01:38:16.720
console that you can think of,
the Phantom, the Nwan that would not

1491
01:38:16.800 --> 01:38:27.680
have fallen into that category in that
context. The top three is we Sports

1492
01:38:27.760 --> 01:38:31.840
call Duty four, Burnout Paradise.
So no rock Band or rock Band's probably

1493
01:38:31.920 --> 01:38:40.239
number four right there with US Guitar
Heroes. Last generation. Yeah it is.

1494
01:38:41.079 --> 01:38:43.800
Yeah. Again, like it sounds
like you're talking about most important games

1495
01:38:43.880 --> 01:38:46.000
the generation, which is a fine
list to put together. No, I'm

1496
01:38:46.119 --> 01:38:49.399
just wait. We Sports, We
Sports is a great fucking game. Sports

1497
01:38:49.520 --> 01:38:53.319
is one of the most important games. Perhaps it is, Yeah, it

1498
01:38:53.439 --> 01:38:57.359
is, it is hyper important,
but also it's really fucking good. Is

1499
01:38:57.399 --> 01:39:02.039
a great important it made the week? I mean like that that might actually

1500
01:39:02.079 --> 01:39:06.079
be the best selling game of the
generation or up there? Right, Yeah,

1501
01:39:08.039 --> 01:39:13.079
exactly. We Sports pretty much does
exactly what it sets out to do.

1502
01:39:13.239 --> 01:39:16.000
You know, I think it's okay, I don't know, you know,

1503
01:39:16.039 --> 01:39:19.199
maybe it's not number one. Yeah, but it is incredibly well made.

1504
01:39:19.479 --> 01:39:23.720
I think it is super fun.
It's single handedly made the Wii a

1505
01:39:23.880 --> 01:39:27.119
viable console. But that's all.
That's the only thing that did. But

1506
01:39:27.239 --> 01:39:30.359
look at how milani of those it
went on to sell, Right, I'm

1507
01:39:30.359 --> 01:39:32.720
gonna saying it might have been important
for Nintendo. Oh sure, Yeah,

1508
01:39:32.920 --> 01:39:36.720
I don't know how important for me, Like something like Mass Effect two.

1509
01:39:39.119 --> 01:39:43.039
Massifecto is a fantastic game. It
is, but it's only it's Yeah,

1510
01:39:43.039 --> 01:39:46.520
but it's that's the thing. It's
only one third of Continued Ark. But

1511
01:39:46.600 --> 01:39:48.600
we're right, we're only talking.
It has to be a game, not

1512
01:39:48.720 --> 01:39:50.680
a series. I think it has
to be a game, not a series.

1513
01:39:50.760 --> 01:39:55.720
And I think I'm saying, like
furthermore, like ground rules wise,

1514
01:39:55.800 --> 01:39:59.520
you would have to say we are
going to try to get as many different

1515
01:39:59.640 --> 01:40:02.239
franch shies is in here, as
opposed to saying, well, Uncharted two

1516
01:40:02.319 --> 01:40:05.079
is number two and Uncharted three is
number eleven. You know, like that

1517
01:40:05.800 --> 01:40:12.720
you pick one, you pick Uncharted
two, and you leave on Charted three

1518
01:40:12.720 --> 01:40:15.039
off. You pick mass Effect two, you leave the other two off.

1519
01:40:15.600 --> 01:40:19.760
Charted two stands on its own quite
well. Mass Effect two is hindered by

1520
01:40:19.880 --> 01:40:24.000
relying on two inferior games. But
I'm saying, like, if you were

1521
01:40:24.039 --> 01:40:28.239
talking about mass effect in the context
of this conversation, you were talking about

1522
01:40:28.239 --> 01:40:31.119
Mass Effect two, how about Gears
of War? Gears does nothing for me

1523
01:40:31.239 --> 01:40:33.479
when I think back on but it's
I think it's a very I think it

1524
01:40:33.600 --> 01:40:39.119
dictated a whole generation of games totally. Yeah, like in the importance.

1525
01:40:39.359 --> 01:40:41.560
Yeah, but again, are we
talking about important games or games that you

1526
01:40:41.720 --> 01:40:43.920
like? I don't know. You
brought up we sports. I like,

1527
01:40:44.600 --> 01:40:47.159
I think Gears is important, and
I also really like you three of the

1528
01:40:47.199 --> 01:40:51.399
core Gears games like they're like I'm
saying one as of right now thinking back

1529
01:40:51.479 --> 01:40:55.560
on it, like, it doesn't
really my heart does not swell. By

1530
01:40:55.600 --> 01:40:58.479
the end of Gears three, I
was straight up fucking dumb. I mean,

1531
01:40:58.600 --> 01:41:00.720
I thought Gears three far best.
I enjoyed it the most. I

1532
01:41:00.760 --> 01:41:03.560
think it was the best. It
was the most refined in terms of like

1533
01:41:03.720 --> 01:41:05.680
variety and stuff like that. You
know, the things they've done to the

1534
01:41:05.760 --> 01:41:11.960
multiplayer by three made it more viable. But I might actually just say here's

1535
01:41:12.000 --> 01:41:14.800
one because I think it was just
such a better campaign than that what they

1536
01:41:14.840 --> 01:41:17.079
did after that, and like Halo
like with the with the matchmaking stuff and

1537
01:41:17.119 --> 01:41:21.000
then the stuff like Halo three was
was a profound release. Uh. I

1538
01:41:21.119 --> 01:41:29.199
think that's an important game just for
showing console server stuff. But it was

1539
01:41:29.520 --> 01:41:32.560
Halo two, did I'll pick one
a lot of Well, Halo two was

1540
01:41:32.600 --> 01:41:38.720
not a three sixty game, so
didn't have all the ad matchmaking, It

1541
01:41:38.760 --> 01:41:42.960
didn't have stuff like the forage or
the theater or three did a lot of

1542
01:41:43.000 --> 01:41:45.880
stuff around the edges. Yeah,
but I think, you know, the

1543
01:41:46.159 --> 01:41:49.000
game you pick to represent a franchise, you would have to pick a balance

1544
01:41:49.039 --> 01:41:54.600
between importance and sheer value or or
you know, like like in you know

1545
01:41:54.960 --> 01:41:59.600
greatness at the time, because like
Call of Duty four was you SURPD in

1546
01:41:59.640 --> 01:42:02.279
a lot of ways by the games
that that came afterwards. Like you might

1547
01:42:02.479 --> 01:42:08.840
say, Black Ops is the pinnacle
across the board, like where they got

1548
01:42:08.920 --> 01:42:12.880
it, where they refined the formula. Yeah, I got the closest perfection

1549
01:42:13.119 --> 01:42:17.039
you might. You might I would
I would probably go with before. Yeah,

1550
01:42:17.199 --> 01:42:19.560
but four is like, yeah,
that is the watershed moment. That

1551
01:42:19.720 --> 01:42:24.319
is like that game came out,
everything that came out after it was changed.

1552
01:42:25.479 --> 01:42:30.399
That's kind of any thing about gears. But it's paradim shito. What's

1553
01:42:30.399 --> 01:42:38.359
that paradise subject there? So yeah, stellar rules, the household whatever,

1554
01:42:38.920 --> 01:42:45.239
they're looking at pictures of dogs.
I don't know, Okay, So I

1555
01:42:45.319 --> 01:42:46.880
think those have to be the ground
rules. That's a lot of rules,

1556
01:42:47.760 --> 01:42:50.359
it's I mean, yeah, and
some of them are total bullshit. But

1557
01:42:50.840 --> 01:42:55.279
that's all lists and all forms of
total bullshit. You have to yeah,

1558
01:42:55.319 --> 01:42:59.359
exactly, all lists and all forms
are like based on total bullshit. There,

1559
01:42:59.680 --> 01:43:04.439
total arbitrary, arbitrary. So let's
make the rules work for us by

1560
01:43:04.520 --> 01:43:09.079
honing the conversation, as opposed to
make the work against us by having us

1561
01:43:09.439 --> 01:43:15.279
consider a trillion different factors. That
would I think that counts. That's that's

1562
01:43:15.359 --> 01:43:23.279
like that that might be like top
three or something. That's Geometry Wars is

1563
01:43:23.359 --> 01:43:26.399
a fantastic game. Would you do
a hundred games of the generation? I

1564
01:43:26.479 --> 01:43:34.279
would rather play Smash TV really perfect? Imagine sorting game is nearly perfect,

1565
01:43:34.600 --> 01:43:40.279
seventy eight or seventy nine. Fucking
I don't care, it's okay, all

1566
01:43:40.319 --> 01:43:45.039
right, all right? Oh god, let's not do this all at once.

1567
01:43:45.920 --> 01:43:48.399
Yeah, I mean we should stretch
it out over some period of time

1568
01:43:48.520 --> 01:43:53.560
or something. But let's go a
month by month. It'll only take us

1569
01:43:53.640 --> 01:43:57.119
ten years. Okay. Yeah,
what came out this month in two thousand

1570
01:43:57.159 --> 01:44:03.079
and three? I don't know.
I don't panther dragoon order it wins.

1571
01:44:03.720 --> 01:44:08.439
All right. Wait, we're doing
Game of the Month again. Yeah,

1572
01:44:08.880 --> 01:44:12.239
come back around of that. Everybody
have their votes on by Thursday noon?

1573
01:44:12.399 --> 01:44:16.159
Please? Does it bring any news
about any Valve stuff? Does that happen?

1574
01:44:16.479 --> 01:44:19.199
There's some steam Box stuff coming out
of CS right now, like who

1575
01:44:19.800 --> 01:44:21.880
wonder people getting this? What company? No? No, I mean like

1576
01:44:21.960 --> 01:44:26.680
other new models being announce Yeah,
just different companies like alien waar and just

1577
01:44:26.760 --> 01:44:29.079
like you know, a much different
companies saying hey, we're also going to

1578
01:44:29.159 --> 01:44:31.640
make a Steam certified machine. But
no, like screenshots of a NOSK or

1579
01:44:31.640 --> 01:44:36.680
anything like that, we go download
the doesn't want its thing? We should

1580
01:44:36.680 --> 01:44:40.239
we actually probably should do that if
we can find a PC. Yeah,

1581
01:44:40.359 --> 01:44:42.960
I think it has to have an
ATI card in it. What's wait?

1582
01:44:43.800 --> 01:44:46.560
Sure I thought they said that.
I mean that's like the beta right for

1583
01:44:46.760 --> 01:44:54.000
right now doesn't have probably might trust
effects, weird physics, extra eyes.

1584
01:44:54.560 --> 01:44:58.960
When I'm calling the reference standard for
four K, what's he show? What's

1585
01:44:58.960 --> 01:45:01.439
he showing? What's happening? What
what's you doing? It's televisions. In

1586
01:45:01.479 --> 01:45:08.960
addition to try luminous display and four
K X reality pro our flaw, the

1587

X nine fifty B series TV features
extended Dynamic Range PRO technology to deliver superb

1588
01:45:16.680 --> 01:45:23.680
picture quality. Oh well it's superb. You feel the beauty. A much

1589
01:45:23.800 --> 01:45:27.479
wider dynamic has appeared on the screen. Thanks for telling me that your brand

1590
01:45:27.560 --> 01:45:30.760
new ten TV is going to look
good. I was worried for sixty five

1591
01:45:30.840 --> 01:45:38.560
inches and our largest of the line
eighty five. These televisions are eye catching

1592
01:45:38.760 --> 01:45:43.800
no matter what you're viewing. How
thick is it looks thin? Joining the

1593
01:45:43.840 --> 01:45:49.239
four K Ultra HD Bravia range is
the X nine hundred fucking tarps off of

1594
01:45:49.319 --> 01:45:55.000
TVs. As he's saying them,
this series of TV is sure to please

1595
01:45:55.079 --> 01:45:59.720
the most discerning viewer with features that
enhanced the home theater experience. I don't

1596
01:45:59.720 --> 01:46:01.760
know, I'm looking at this TV
on this like internet stream. It look

1597
01:46:01.840 --> 01:46:04.359
the picture looks like ship. The
soccer fields all jaggy. I don't know.

1598
01:46:04.479 --> 01:46:06.159
This seems like a bunch of crap. Well, it's not blended.

1599
01:46:06.159 --> 01:46:12.079
Are any of those did they say, I don't know, high density probe

1600

it's Ultra HD Ultra HD XB nine
thousand. Yeah, x XBR Bravos.

1601
01:46:17.520 --> 01:46:21.760
Yeah, for the best, they
were great, trying to troyn t Yeah,

1602
01:46:24.039 --> 01:46:27.039
for a four K experience. Well, it's a lot of we've been

1603
01:46:27.119 --> 01:46:29.600
checking in. Yeah, and it's
been four K for the last four Will

1604
01:46:29.680 --> 01:46:35.239
they really are using that XBR like
distinction again? Brought that back ages old?

1605
01:46:35.359 --> 01:46:38.920
Yeah, or are still using it
or whatever? They stuck with the

1606
01:46:38.960 --> 01:46:44.079
Bravia name punchy patch that out years
ago. Yeah, totally go back,

1607
01:46:44.239 --> 01:46:47.600
go back to Vegas, talk about
four ksymore. We're also working on the

1608
01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:56.359
next generation four K media player.
We can't just can't. What's the next?

1609
01:46:58.039 --> 01:47:01.640
What's the next? What is the
media player? Ab via televisions because

1610
01:47:01.640 --> 01:47:08.239
you know who to media format?
Yeah, exactly, a track three and

UMD supportable four K Bravia TVs,
but many discs applications video available now in

1612
01:47:16.079 --> 01:47:20.239
the US and EXPANSE. There's a
press conference going on right now too.

1613
01:47:21.079 --> 01:47:27.279
Allows you to instantly enjoy your four
K photos in all their glory on your

1614
01:47:27.800 --> 01:47:30.399
screen four thousand by whatever whatever?
How many megapixels that? Why do they

1615
01:47:30.399 --> 01:47:35.479
just start building TVs? Is like
content and hardware, whether you're capturing your

1616
01:47:35.520 --> 01:47:42.920
own with any of our device,
were watching professionally created entertainment, the very

1617
01:47:43.039 --> 01:47:48.720
highest achievable quality in detail. See
at Sony. We don't believe in the

1618
01:47:48.800 --> 01:47:56.680
phrase just good enough in a world
which I don't know man sacrifice for convenience

1619
01:47:56.800 --> 01:48:00.520
or accessibility, that we go above
and beyond? Why did you make it

1620
01:48:00.640 --> 01:48:02.640
twelve and with Sony four k al
trade? How come the friends list on

1621
01:48:02.720 --> 01:48:06.479
PS four loads so poorly? Then
that's just good enough. We gotta ship

1622
01:48:06.520 --> 01:48:10.279
it. It's good enough to hear
that. We'll fix it later. So

1623
01:48:10.399 --> 01:48:15.000
let's talk. Here's Sony. Our
slogan is hi res audio three to seven

1624
01:48:15.079 --> 01:48:24.560
times hi res audio, delivering sound
the way the artist meant it to be

1625
01:48:24.640 --> 01:48:31.119
heard. Okay, hi res audio, hi res audio. What's the resolution

1626
01:48:31.199 --> 01:48:34.720
on this audio? Four KOs four
K audio? Okay, man, that's

1627
01:48:34.720 --> 01:48:38.600
pretty little bit right, I don't
worry about it. Were up to twenty

1628
01:48:38.600 --> 01:48:43.840
eight now it's one sixty. Holy
crap. Valve, valve press release just

1629
01:48:43.880 --> 01:48:46.439
came out about Steam machines. There
are what looks to be about a whole

1630
01:48:46.479 --> 01:48:56.000
new approach that makes their more compatible
flack ape Uh. Looks looks to be

1631
01:48:56.039 --> 01:48:59.560
about a dozen different companies making steam
boxes. Yeah, yeah, totally,

1632
01:48:59.560 --> 01:49:04.680
including such luminaries as Falcon Northwest Yeah
uh and Falcon four point zero and the

1633
01:49:04.760 --> 01:49:10.319
next Spa Yeah, and Webb Holland
I needed a good spot computers. Are

1634
01:49:10.359 --> 01:49:13.760
there prices on any of these?
It says the lowest end model is four

1635
01:49:13.880 --> 01:49:16.520
ninety nine. That's actually more expensive. Yeah, I'm kind of surprised.

1636
01:49:17.079 --> 01:49:20.439
It's come with a controller starting at
four eight four ninety nine and top end

1637
01:49:20.520 --> 01:49:26.039
systems rivaling today's bleeding edge gaming PCs. One of the songs we were recording

1638
01:49:26.159 --> 01:49:32.319
for it was called say something,
Wow, I'm really saying something in high

1639
01:49:32.319 --> 01:49:35.399
res audio an episode of So You
Think you Can Dance? And that kind

1640
01:49:35.479 --> 01:49:45.720
of yeahs turn that off. H. So that's all I add for the

1641
01:49:45.800 --> 01:49:47.840
news. I mean this, this
press conference is still happening. So you

1642
01:49:47.920 --> 01:49:51.840
think something will get announced. I
imagine they'll have a PlayStation chunk at some

1643
01:49:51.960 --> 01:49:56.239
point, sure say here's what's going
on. They'll they'll have to announce uh

1644
01:49:56.920 --> 01:50:02.760
sales stuff because Microsoft announced I guess
three million units sold through in. I

1645
01:50:02.880 --> 01:50:08.520
think I'm not sure, but they
used the retailers through is the consumers?

1646
01:50:08.600 --> 01:50:13.199
Yeah, okay, yeah, I
could actually look and see what the actual

1647
01:50:13.319 --> 01:50:15.520
language on it was. They've done
sell through up to this point, so

1648
01:50:15.640 --> 01:50:17.920
I'm not sure if this was a
switch to sell in, but they did.

1649
01:50:18.159 --> 01:50:23.520
They did throw a three million number
out there. Let's see if I

1650
01:50:23.560 --> 01:50:29.560
had deleted that email or not.
Meanwhile, let's have dueling press conference recaps.

1651
01:50:30.920 --> 01:50:32.680
Gabe Newell apparently said at the Valve
thing that Dota two is bigger than

1652
01:50:32.720 --> 01:50:39.760
Monday Night Football. Wow. Well, yeah, they fucked up like the

1653
01:50:39.920 --> 01:50:44.279
NFL totally fucked up. NFL Monday
Night Football though, like Sunday Night Football

1654
01:50:44.359 --> 01:50:46.600
is the game that matters now because
they moved Monday Night Football to ESPN.

1655
01:50:47.000 --> 01:50:50.920
That's just now it's capable like Monday. It's a like Monday Night Football is

1656
01:50:50.960 --> 01:50:54.439
a shample. It's compared to what
it used to be. It's not it's

1657
01:50:54.439 --> 01:51:00.640
not the institution that like I'm taking
my friends are Monday night football is one

1658
01:51:00.920 --> 01:51:03.720
compared to Sun Football. About that. Actually, Dot to one is still

1659
01:51:03.880 --> 01:51:08.840
bigger. Look man, do two
or league. As far as I know,

1660
01:51:14.119 --> 01:51:16.560
we ushered in and blah blah blah's
get number one, record setting pace,

1661
01:51:16.920 --> 01:51:21.680
the fastest selling They keep using this
fastest selling console during our launch month

1662
01:51:21.920 --> 01:51:27.560
thing, and I don't I don't
know that they've ever said exactly what that

1663
01:51:27.680 --> 01:51:33.119
means. But you know this doesn't
over Okay, Yeah, that's sell through.

1664
01:51:33.199 --> 01:51:38.039
Over three million Xbox one consoles were
sold to consumers in thirteen countries before

1665
01:51:38.079 --> 01:51:42.119
the end of twenty thirteen. Well, somebody's gonna be hitting their next market

1666
01:51:42.159 --> 01:51:45.880
soon, right, Japan in February, Japan in February. Yeah, yeah,

1667
01:51:46.399 --> 01:51:48.880
twenty second, I think it is. I'm not sure if that's the

1668
01:51:48.960 --> 01:51:53.479
next launch. It probably is.
I'm not sure where they're available right now.

1669
01:51:53.600 --> 01:51:59.079
How many people are in Japan,
like fifty seventy five. It's pretty

1670
01:51:59.119 --> 01:52:01.720
small islands. Yeah, they all
too busy plane wind jammers to really notice.

1671
01:52:03.159 --> 01:52:06.760
It's American sport depends when you take
the sense of like after a battle

1672
01:52:06.840 --> 01:52:11.680
Royale, like, oh well yeah, that's Y's like you wait a little

1673
01:52:11.680 --> 01:52:15.159
bit. Yeah, that's why the
population is getting so much older over there,

1674
01:52:15.199 --> 01:52:19.439
is because all the kids keep killing
each other pair scissors versus hand grenades

1675
01:52:21.039 --> 01:52:27.279
the most extreme. Yes, yeah, he knows. Oh four K Yeah,

1676
01:52:27.359 --> 01:52:29.600
four K is the most extreme.
So what are they gonna do when

1677
01:52:29.600 --> 01:52:32.359
they get to the place? Guys
talking about fucking headphones? See a relatively

1678
01:52:32.600 --> 01:52:39.880

1682
01:53:00.640 --> 01:53:02.359
make sure that we are here.
When they do talk about the PlayStation stuff,

1683
01:53:02.520 --> 01:53:04.479
just kind of wait until you see
a picture of that. See if

1684
01:53:04.479 --> 01:53:09.760
they say four K during that thing? Right, yeah, but now they're

1685
01:53:09.800 --> 01:53:15.039
talking about headphones for running. I
believe it was swimming, scretch. Now

1686
01:53:15.159 --> 01:53:17.159
they've moved on from swimming to running. Oh because he's a marathon. Uh

1687
01:53:17.319 --> 01:53:25.079
yeah, this the bias can run
for sixty minutes, right, doesn't seem

1688
01:53:25.159 --> 01:53:28.199
like that. I don't know,
that doesn't seem like that long. What's

1689
01:53:28.239 --> 01:53:31.399
the cats like? It's real,
really good. It's high rez audio and

1690
01:53:31.479 --> 01:53:34.000

life. I guess, wait, sixty

01:55:32.159 --> 01:55:36.720
a suit on an airplane wearing some
kind of dumb looking headset. But it's

1712
01:55:36.720 --> 01:55:43.279
just a viewer. Seven hundred fifty
inch screen. That's a big that's a

over here, it's to my right. Tennis censor is a lightweight device.

1722
01:56:25.640 --> 01:56:34.039
Tennis censor your tennis racket analyzes your
play tennis screen. It can log your

1723
01:56:34.039 --> 01:56:43.319
shot count, impact point on the
racket, swing speed, and how big

1724
01:56:43.439 --> 01:56:48.039
is the video. And your smartphone
analyzers on fire because they make too many

1725
01:56:48.079 --> 01:56:54.159
TVs. The bunch of new TVs
like way too many models opens up and

1726
01:56:54.279 --> 01:57:00.479
a tennis censor user experiences. And

01:58:16.760 --> 01:58:18.920
All right, it is faded to

01:58:30.319 --> 01:58:35.079
tracking time in bed and time spent
listening to music. It's a silhouette walking

01:59:57.439 --> 02:00:01.319
get to emails. Before we get
to emails, I enjoying the world along

1758
02:00:01.399 --> 02:00:09.319
you. Mm hm. Brendon in
New York writes In says, now that

1759
02:00:09.439 --> 02:00:12.520
voice recognition is commonplace. Do you
think we're finally going to see a new

1760
02:00:12.640 --> 02:00:17.479
version of Seaman? Just imagine how
cool it would be if you could Seaman

1761
02:00:17.600 --> 02:00:25.039
eyes your own face via connect.
That's the only reason I took this email.

1762
02:00:25.279 --> 02:00:27.199
Yeah, very good. That was
very good. Yeah. Great.

1763
02:00:27.399 --> 02:00:30.439
Sega's not going to make a new
Seaman game. SEC is not even making

1764
02:00:30.479 --> 02:00:32.800
new versions of games that were actually
popular. Why would they make a new

1765
02:00:32.840 --> 02:00:39.199
Seaman? Actually, I don't know
they even Seaman Total War developed original Seaman.

1766
02:00:39.840 --> 02:00:41.960
There's only one came out here,
right, yeah, yeah, two

1767
02:00:42.000 --> 02:00:46.279
came out over there on the p
S two. Sound of people taking pictures

1768
02:00:46.279 --> 02:00:50.479
of technology could be the tiniest the
gadget. Sony has it ever? Mate?

1769
02:00:50.600 --> 02:00:55.640
What is it? It's a little
ship's at the heart. I don't

1770
02:00:55.640 --> 02:01:01.439
know. That's a little quarter shaped
the core, it's the core, the

1771
02:01:01.520 --> 02:01:09.600
life log application. This tiny waterproof
device. We let you capture and analyze

1772
02:01:09.800 --> 02:01:14.439
many aspects of your life. Hide
it in your ass. This is creepy.

1773
02:01:14.439 --> 02:01:16.600
It's pretty small. Bide you with
the information you need to explore,

1774
02:01:16.760 --> 02:01:24.520
and they enjoy the world around you. Okay, this core can be worn

1775
02:01:25.760 --> 02:01:32.119
and the counterst different ways. For
example, all right, where do I

1776
02:01:32.199 --> 02:01:39.319
wear it? Subdermal? It's not
that small, this core in this smart

1777
02:01:39.399 --> 02:01:45.359
band. Actually, this is already
it's a it's a wrist band, this

1778
02:01:45.600 --> 02:01:59.600
band smart band, which will be
available this spring. Yeah, now let's

1779
02:01:59.640 --> 02:02:02.439
take a growth they experienced. Did
he hold up his wrist very ready?

1780
02:02:03.279 --> 02:02:10.359
Yeah, it's just four K.
I don't know they haven't gotten to that

1781
02:02:10.399 --> 02:02:16.760
part yet, but it's probably all
TRAHD. This video of very nice product

1782
02:02:16.840 --> 02:02:23.239
shots. What is what do they
do? Brad? You know what?

1783
02:02:23.319 --> 02:02:26.680
If you fit it? Just got
one? Why would one? Why would

1784
02:02:26.720 --> 02:02:29.600
one wear one? I mean,
if you want metrics on your activities.

1785
02:02:29.680 --> 02:02:33.119
I bought that job boned up because
it purported to say how well you were

1786
02:02:33.239 --> 02:02:36.960
sleeping at night. That's in addition
to the walking something that you're not aware

1787
02:02:38.000 --> 02:02:41.439
of consciously exactly. I was like, oh, I wonder you know,

1788
02:02:41.640 --> 02:02:45.199
like what am I getting deep sleep? And it turned out I was.

1789
02:02:45.560 --> 02:02:47.560
I was like, Okay, mission
accomplished. I'm gonna stop wearing this.

1790
02:02:48.159 --> 02:02:50.680
Like, Brad, what are you
hoping to? I know it's a gift,

1791
02:02:50.760 --> 02:02:53.880
but like, what would you hope
to get out of your Fitbit?

1792
02:02:53.960 --> 02:02:57.560
I'm hoping it's motivating factor to say, like I'm not walking in something that

1793
02:02:57.640 --> 02:03:00.039
I've been slacking off? Do you
compete with you can? I mean,

1794
02:03:00.119 --> 02:03:02.119
well, you know each each one. You know, there's there's the Nike

1795
02:03:02.199 --> 02:03:04.920
one, there's fit Bit, there's
yeah, so like with the job of

1796
02:03:05.000 --> 02:03:08.319
them, Yeah, like each one
it would sink to an app and you

1797
02:03:08.359 --> 02:03:10.359
could have friends lists and stuff and
it would tell you how what you were

1798
02:03:10.399 --> 02:03:13.159
doing each one. Each one has
its own ecosystem obviously, so you know

1799
02:03:13.439 --> 02:03:15.720
Fitbit friends list is separate from the
Nike friends list. Sever but this one

1800
02:03:15.720 --> 02:03:20.479
at least will let you export data
in like some common health formats. I

1801
02:03:20.520 --> 02:03:25.039
didn't even know such thing existed,
h t H. But but there are

1802
02:03:25.199 --> 02:03:28.199
like like you can spit the data
out that will go into other sort of

1803
02:03:28.239 --> 02:03:31.359
lifestyle tracking software that that will let
you aggregate that stuff. But it's like

1804
02:03:31.479 --> 02:03:34.319
tracking steps like a pometer. Yeah, yeah, this thing, this thing

1805
02:03:34.439 --> 02:03:41.880
does, uh it does steps distance
stairs like flights of stairs or heart rad

1806
02:03:42.000 --> 02:03:45.359
No, no, no, no, definitely not just although I read that

1807
02:03:45.800 --> 02:03:50.880
like statistically, like these things are
actually shown to increase activity level if you

1808
02:03:50.920 --> 02:03:55.880
want to get moved psychologically, Like
they tend to get people to be more

1809
02:03:55.920 --> 02:04:00.319
active than they were watching you than
you tend to do a little bit of

1810
02:04:00.399 --> 02:04:04.319
Nike one, like it shows you
a a number. It's not calories,

1811
02:04:04.359 --> 02:04:09.520
it's like fuel fuel is there fake
score, it's like a high score score.

1812
02:04:09.640 --> 02:04:12.560
And so like when he like gets
home or you know, home weekends,

1813
02:04:12.680 --> 02:04:15.760
he's running around doing areas or something, and it says like twenty nine

1814
02:04:15.880 --> 02:04:17.840
hundred, Yeah, he'll go out
and run for a bit until it his

1815
02:04:17.960 --> 02:04:21.520
three thousand, and that's just a
round number. Yeah, Like this thing,

1816
02:04:21.680 --> 02:04:24.520
I don't know if you can see
it from here, but if I

1817
02:04:24.600 --> 02:04:27.239
go to the steps display, there's
a little bar underneath it. Okay,

1818
02:04:28.279 --> 02:04:30.079
the default goal on this one is
just ten thousand steps a day, which

1819
02:04:30.079 --> 02:04:34.079
is like the American Heart Associations like
recommended minimum activity. Yeah, that's all

1820
02:04:34.119 --> 02:04:36.520
the job on ever really wanted.
You could set your own, Yeah,

1821
02:04:36.520 --> 02:04:40.000
you same here. You can go
on go on the dashboard and just like

1822
02:04:40.079 --> 02:04:42.960
type in your own goal for you
know, I want to there's another between

1823
02:04:43.000 --> 02:04:45.479
a step and a run. I
don't know. I don't, like I

1824
02:04:45.520 --> 02:04:47.359
said, today is the first day
I've used it. I don't know about

1825
02:04:47.399 --> 02:04:54.359
that. Maybe don't the jama didn't
know about that, but you guess it

1826
02:04:54.399 --> 02:04:57.199
does. Actually, I just I'm
sorry. I just found the difference between

1827
02:04:57.600 --> 02:05:02.199
two steps and running step up like
the poker tracker or whatever. Count your

1828
02:05:02.239 --> 02:05:04.880
step yep, yeah, yeah.
There have been tons of things that it's

1829
02:05:04.880 --> 02:05:10.159
just basic pedometer stuff kind of taken
to the next sort of iteration. Yeah,

1830
02:05:10.600 --> 02:05:13.000
Like the job bone would do stuff
where like if you were gonna go

1831
02:05:13.199 --> 02:05:16.000
running, you could hit a button
and start a timer and then when you

1832
02:05:16.039 --> 02:05:18.760
were done, you would hit stop, and then later on you would classify

1833
02:05:18.760 --> 02:05:24.319
it in the app as this I
was running, I was fucking you know,

1834
02:05:24.399 --> 02:05:26.920
like whatever you were into with that
time. Oh you went up an

1835
02:05:26.960 --> 02:05:30.279
elevator, I did. Yeah,
I was sleeping in an elevator. Yeah,

1836
02:05:30.520 --> 02:05:34.520
got it interesting. And then that
thing broke because apparently they all break,

1837
02:05:34.560 --> 02:05:38.960
because all the job oonne ups were
total pieces of like physically broke,

1838
02:05:39.079 --> 02:05:42.399
like it wouldn't stay on, it
doesn't work, and that was apparently a

1839
02:05:42.439 --> 02:05:45.600
widespread issue those things. Rather than
go get it fixed because apparently the ones

1840
02:05:45.640 --> 02:05:48.159
that people were getting replaced also broke. I said, well, that's that

1841
02:05:48.960 --> 02:05:51.760
all right, Great, I had
learned the thing I wanted to know.

1842
02:05:53.399 --> 02:05:57.760
Apparently sleeping just fine. How do
you find the bracelet? Brad? That's

1843
02:05:57.800 --> 02:06:00.439
the one thing that people don't like
about this thing, and I can kind

1844
02:06:00.439 --> 02:06:03.439
of understand. It's initially pretty hard
to clasp, but once I figured out

1845
02:06:03.439 --> 02:06:05.560
how to do it, it works
pretty much fun. And now you're wearing

1846
02:06:05.600 --> 02:06:09.880
ah, you know, jewelry.
Yeah, you're not a watch guy.

1847
02:06:09.920 --> 02:06:12.399
I know. I haven't wren to
watch in almost twenty years, so it's

1848
02:06:12.560 --> 02:06:15.840
kind of weird. Adjust a pebble
steel instead, man. Yeah. Yeah,

1849
02:06:15.880 --> 02:06:17.520
because it's it's pretty minimal, and
it's you know, it's got a

1850
02:06:17.560 --> 02:06:19.640
nice screen on it, so you
can have hit the button and get the

1851
02:06:19.680 --> 02:06:24.079
time. Stuff like that. You
can go on, you can go in

1852
02:06:24.079 --> 02:06:27.640
the dashboard and change your your clock
face. There are different styles of clocks.

1853
02:06:28.359 --> 02:06:32.479
It's kind of cool in this,
but I can tell you I've taken

1854
02:06:33.079 --> 02:06:39.479
three hundred and forty four steps,
so you've taken over thirty three hundred steps

1855
02:06:39.479 --> 02:06:42.880
today. Wow. Wow, but
that's only a third of my the way

1856
02:06:43.000 --> 02:06:45.359
to my daily goal of ten thousand. What's he holding up there? Two

1857
02:06:45.399 --> 02:06:48.840
phones? He's showing that one is
smaller than the other, and people are

1858
02:06:48.880 --> 02:06:53.680
clapping. I don't know if they're
clapping because the one phone is smaller because

1859
02:06:53.720 --> 02:07:01.199
the other one got bigger, smaller
than three design. It's a stydish metal

1860
02:07:04.199 --> 02:07:10.960
on the high resolution display. Amazing
to any bang up pixel camera. There

1861
02:07:11.000 --> 02:07:15.920
you go, exactly what you expect. Uromahiro device. I just got a

1862
02:07:15.960 --> 02:07:18.239
nap on my phone. Moves three
bucks. Yeah, I've heard of that.

1863
02:07:18.720 --> 02:07:21.359
It's pretty cool. It'll track you
on a map too. Yeah,

1864
02:07:21.439 --> 02:07:24.760
say like, yeah, I've heard
those are pretty good. I'm mainly I'm

1865
02:07:24.760 --> 02:07:28.079
afraid to go out and exercise with
my phone. It burns the heck out

1866
02:07:28.119 --> 02:07:30.039
of your battery. That. Yeah, I heard it would also do that.

1867
02:07:30.800 --> 02:07:31.920
I'm just worried about it, like
bouncing out of my pocket and hitting

1868
02:07:31.920 --> 02:07:34.199
the ground. Like the announced a
smaller phone, Like I don't know,

1869
02:07:34.520 --> 02:07:38.479
like maybe that's the same screen size
and it's just all like bezel reduction or

1870
02:07:38.520 --> 02:07:43.279
something like that. But the whole
trend was bigger phone cs. Keynotes are

1871
02:07:43.319 --> 02:07:46.720
boring as shit now, It's really
they really are almost almost to a one

1872
02:07:47.720 --> 02:07:53.239
sweetness. They're just horrible handheld sweetness. He held up a different phone that's

1873
02:07:53.239 --> 02:08:00.119
a different color. Thanks to Sony's
strong history of making a compact that is

1874
02:08:00.119 --> 02:08:05.319
out compromising the creatures, the best
of Sony can now fit perfect today in

1875
02:08:05.399 --> 02:08:07.680
your in the palm of your hand. People are standing up to get a

1876
02:08:07.720 --> 02:08:16.239
better shot of these fucking phones.
Ah, doomed. What do those phones

1877
02:08:16.359 --> 02:08:20.000
run? I don't know, right, pretty sure, let's see palm os

1878
02:08:20.159 --> 02:08:26.199
Is it is Sony ericson stuff or
experience? These are all experienced devices ericson.

1879
02:08:26.199 --> 02:08:28.600
I don't think they used the Erickson
name anymore. Okay, it's all

1880
02:08:28.960 --> 02:08:33.920
SMC, Sony Mobile Communications or whatever
corporation, whatever it was. John writes

1881
02:08:33.960 --> 02:08:37.840
in and says, I just finished
watching Jeff play RBI baseball and was thinking

1882
02:08:37.920 --> 02:08:41.439
of my own memories of playing Blades
of Steel. Do you think that modern

1883
02:08:41.479 --> 02:08:45.199
sports games could benefit from a simplification
of their mechanics or is it just nostalgia

1884
02:08:45.279 --> 02:08:46.359
that makes these games great? Yeah? See, this is what I was

1885
02:08:46.399 --> 02:08:52.399
going to ask you earlier, Like, why do you think we've gotten away

1886
02:08:52.439 --> 02:08:56.159
from the simplicity of those games.
Do you think because they're the graphics are

1887
02:08:56.199 --> 02:09:05.800
better and and people playing games expect
more features, well they're more simulation now,

1888
02:09:05.319 --> 02:09:09.760
yeah, like, but there's the
difference between features and depth, right,

1889
02:09:09.840 --> 02:09:13.199
I mean we've seen with win Jammers. Yeah it's a simple game.

1890
02:09:13.319 --> 02:09:18.000
But right, I think it's that
the bulk of the people that purchase sports

1891
02:09:18.079 --> 02:09:24.880
products care about the real sports and
care about authenticity and realism. It's why

1892
02:09:24.239 --> 02:09:31.319
when Sega went out and did you
know, all Pro football to you know

1893
02:09:31.399 --> 02:09:35.439
whatever that didn't have real players or
didn't have the NFL license because you know,

1894
02:09:35.520 --> 02:09:39.399
EA locked it up like no one
cared, and that Backbreaker game came

1895
02:09:39.439 --> 02:09:41.720
out, No one cared. People
want the real thing. It's why I

1896
02:09:41.760 --> 02:09:46.039
needed for speed Out sells Burnout in
some cases as real cars, and Burnout

1897
02:09:46.079 --> 02:09:48.800
doesn't. You know, there's people
that whether it makes a better game or

1898
02:09:48.840 --> 02:09:50.960
not, there are people that have
it in their head that they want that

1899
02:09:52.159 --> 02:09:56.880
level of authenticity and they want games
that go to extremes. But you know,

1900
02:09:56.119 --> 02:10:01.199
once that started happening, we grat
to hockey the that it was like

1901
02:10:01.319 --> 02:10:05.920
NBA jam but hockey it wasn't good. Yeah, it wasn't great. It

1902
02:10:05.039 --> 02:10:13.920
wasn't great. I think once those
things got more complicated and more correctly emulated

1903
02:10:13.960 --> 02:10:18.319
the real sports, the people that
care about those real sports went there.

1904
02:10:18.800 --> 02:10:20.000
And it's why I like, I
mean, he just tried to do NFL

1905
02:10:20.039 --> 02:10:24.079
Blitz. Recently, they tried to
do a couple of NBA jams and like

1906
02:10:24.159 --> 02:10:28.039
they didn't, you know, like
they kind of did. Okay, I

1907
02:10:28.079 --> 02:10:31.800
guess that's why you see people who
like only play Madden, right, Yeah,

1908
02:10:31.319 --> 02:10:35.439
Like they just that's that's the realistic
football game. They know that that's

1909
02:10:35.479 --> 02:10:39.119
going to be the thing that's gonna
have what they're looking for in terms of

1910
02:10:39.359 --> 02:10:41.039
they care about real football and all
that other stuff. Yeah. Yeah,

1911
02:10:41.039 --> 02:10:43.880
it was like you're saying, with
the need for speed having real cars,

1912
02:10:45.159 --> 02:10:48.560
Yeah, like that, There's there's
definitely value in that. It's why when

1913
02:10:48.680 --> 02:10:52.640
it became available and they found a
good way to get it, ya went

1914
02:10:52.680 --> 02:10:56.439
ahead and got the UFC license.
You know, they can get the right

1915
02:10:56.560 --> 02:11:01.079
league, they can go that comes
with all the right five you know,

1916
02:11:01.159 --> 02:11:03.840
before that, they did that a
Sports MMA game that had like the Strike

1917
02:11:03.920 --> 02:11:07.399
Force fighters in it. Before that
got bought by UFC, and yeah,

1918
02:11:07.560 --> 02:11:09.159
no one really cared, even if
it was a pretty good game on its

1919
02:11:09.199 --> 02:11:13.560
own. I also think that those
games came out today, people would look

1920
02:11:13.560 --> 02:11:18.760
at him as low value totally.
Yeah, you know, those become downloadables

1921
02:11:18.840 --> 02:11:20.520
and stuff like that, like you
can get away with fifteen dollars, five

1922
02:11:20.560 --> 02:11:24.199
dollars, you know, games of
that nature. But they've done that,

1923
02:11:24.279 --> 02:11:30.119
like they did you know MLB Power
pros like the Konami style uh baseball game.

1924
02:11:30.159 --> 02:11:35.319
You know, they did something like
that. Yeah, Like you know,

1925
02:11:35.600 --> 02:11:37.279
a tech like a new tech Mo
Bowl game came out like a couple

1926
02:11:37.279 --> 02:11:41.880
of years ago that was not so
great. Uh it was it was a

1927
02:11:41.079 --> 02:11:45.720
portable, wasn't it was a handheld? Uh? It was an Xbox Live

1928
02:11:45.800 --> 02:11:50.840
arcade game. But it may have
also something happened come to the handhelts everybody

1929
02:11:50.960 --> 02:11:56.720
Xperia, zvan s comes these unique
entertainment offer all right. They were showing

1930
02:11:56.760 --> 02:11:58.960
the PlayStation app there for a second, but it was just the same thing

1931
02:12:00.079 --> 02:12:05.560
that's on iOS. So yeah,
I just think that's the bulk of the

1932
02:12:05.640 --> 02:12:11.640
audience for sports like wants authenticity over
playability, and and the market for that

1933
02:12:11.760 --> 02:12:16.000
kind of arcade style sports game or
that kind of like you know, more

1934
02:12:16.039 --> 02:12:24.960
accessible experience just doesn't really exist in
the numbers that it used to. And

1935
02:12:24.039 --> 02:12:28.079
it's like I kind of give EA
some credit for like making that attempt,

1936
02:12:28.199 --> 02:12:30.359
Like it was a pretty valiant effort
of them to say, like, no,

1937
02:12:30.479 --> 02:12:33.199
we're going to go make a new
NBA JAM and like we're going to

1938
02:12:33.319 --> 02:12:37.479
kind of do right by that game's
roots and not try to overcomplicate it.

1939
02:12:37.520 --> 02:12:41.079
I mean, they made it a
deeper game than it was, and I

1940
02:12:41.119 --> 02:12:43.680
don't know if that made it better
or worse, but you know, they

1941
02:12:43.880 --> 02:12:48.159
they did pretty good. You know, Blitz I think was unfortunate in a

1942
02:12:48.239 --> 02:12:54.039
couple of key ways compared to actual
real midway NFL Blitz, But uh,

1943
02:12:56.279 --> 02:12:58.239
you know, it was cool they
tried it. But I just don't think

1944
02:12:58.279 --> 02:13:05.600
anyone really cares. So robots sports, Yeah, it's why. You know,

1945
02:13:05.680 --> 02:13:07.039
you still get stuff like that in
golf, Like you still get hotshots

1946
02:13:07.079 --> 02:13:09.640
golf, you still get Mario Golf. Well, I guess there has actually

1947
02:13:09.680 --> 02:13:13.479
been a Mario Golf probably since that
GameCube game has there. I don't think

1948
02:13:13.880 --> 02:13:16.399
there are three D S one or
D one. Rather, it might be

1949
02:13:16.399 --> 02:13:22.319
a DS one. I don't know
what if that came out before you know,

1950
02:13:22.560 --> 02:13:26.399
yeah, you get Camelot and Clap
Hands and you know, Japanese companies

1951
02:13:26.439 --> 02:13:31.279
like that and making good, solid, accessible golf games. Uh, and

1952
02:13:31.399 --> 02:13:35.199
that's great, but not not a
ton of stuff like that. It's too

1953
02:13:35.239 --> 02:13:39.520
bad. But at the same time, like those games have come out and

1954
02:13:39.640 --> 02:13:45.439
I didn't even play them with the
fervor that I used to actually play legitimately

1955
02:13:45.479 --> 02:13:50.239
play sports games with. So it's
it's sort of probably a mixture of people

1956
02:13:50.319 --> 02:13:52.720
haven't moved on and it's gotta be
some happy medium though, right, I

1957
02:13:52.800 --> 02:13:56.600
mean, i'd like to think.
So what little I've played, it's very

1958
02:13:56.680 --> 02:14:03.119
little of the NHL games seems like
they're towing the line pretty well between like

1959
02:14:03.840 --> 02:14:07.199
all the features that you want,
Like you can do everything that you like

1960
02:14:07.279 --> 02:14:13.119
a hockey player can do, but
it's not hard to do or you you

1961
02:14:13.199 --> 02:14:15.079
know, as long as you understand
how to do it, you can do

1962
02:14:15.199 --> 02:14:18.720
it. Yeah, put some practice. Yeah, he tries to do it

1963
02:14:18.800 --> 02:14:22.880
with different control options with you know, like like hockey specifically as likening,

1964
02:14:22.920 --> 02:14:24.039
you can go back to like two
button mode or three button mode or whatever

1965
02:14:24.079 --> 02:14:28.960
it is to try to simple fly
it. And yeah, I think hockey

1966
02:14:28.520 --> 02:14:33.399
is probably the most accessible sports game
that we played last year. Yeah,

1967
02:14:35.960 --> 02:14:39.079
I got basketball wasn't so bad hit
the button and pass. I feel like

1968
02:14:39.119 --> 02:14:43.159
I was not slam duncan like I
ought to. I just think maybe I

1969
02:14:43.199 --> 02:14:45.600
don't know. I don't watch enough
basketball. Is that just how basketball is?

1970
02:14:45.680 --> 02:14:46.760
I have no fucking idea. You
don't just throw the ball to the

1971
02:14:46.840 --> 02:14:50.840
other side of the court and they
breaks the back every time fast break.

1972
02:14:50.880 --> 02:14:52.720
That's the Lake Show, right,
It's just I don't I don't know.

1973
02:14:52.880 --> 02:14:54.560
That's how I thought it was gonna
go. Yeah, if I'm running and

1974
02:14:54.640 --> 02:14:58.520
I hit the button that shoots,
I should jump from wherever I am half

1975
02:14:58.560 --> 02:15:03.399
court wherever. Yeah, I might
not make it. Yeah, but like

1976
02:15:03.479 --> 02:15:07.399
I'm running, Yeah, totally,
I was laid it up. Yeah,

1977
02:15:09.279 --> 02:15:13.479
that cricket game was the most realistic
sports game I've played from what I know

1978
02:15:13.520 --> 02:15:16.760
about cricket. Yeah, dead on, dead on real cricket. The realist

1979
02:15:18.159 --> 02:15:22.520
uh Phil Wrightson and says, as
we all agree, sim City was a

1980
02:15:22.560 --> 02:15:26.279
disappointing game. The score, however, was pretty dope by Chris Tilton.

1981
02:15:26.319 --> 02:15:31.359
Do you think that his work is
considered less valuable in the industry because the

1982
02:15:31.439 --> 02:15:35.199
game for which he composed a dope
score turned out to be a clunker,

1983
02:15:35.520 --> 02:15:39.520
surely not. No, no,
yes, And it's one of the interesting

1984
02:15:39.600 --> 02:15:41.039
things here. They've gone back to
the desk here at Sony. A few

1985
02:15:41.039 --> 02:15:43.279
of the things that we heard about, you know what Sony talked about and

1986
02:15:43.359 --> 02:15:48.279
released. The one thing that stuck
out with me is breaking Bad in four

1987
02:15:48.359 --> 02:15:54.159
K. Yeah. I wonder if
that's over. I wonder if they didn't

1988
02:15:54.159 --> 02:15:56.159
actually have a PlayStation chunk or if
they're just cutting in and break. I

1989
02:15:56.199 --> 02:15:58.039
don't know, but it's maybe it's
over. I think it's I think it's

1990
02:15:58.039 --> 02:16:05.159
over lame. Well, that was
fun. I get the impression that like

1991
02:16:07.119 --> 02:16:11.479
people who stuck through, and it's
it's a little I mean, doing the

1992
02:16:11.520 --> 02:16:13.560
score for a game is a little
different because you know, you're doing your

1993
02:16:13.560 --> 02:16:18.359
work kind of separate. But like, if you shipped a game and it

1994
02:16:18.399 --> 02:16:22.560
turned out to be a bad game, that's probably still better for your career

1995
02:16:22.680 --> 02:16:26.159
than not shipping a game. Yeah, well, it's definitely better than than

1996
02:16:26.199 --> 02:16:30.239
not shipping game at all on your
resume. But like a lot of like

1997
02:16:30.600 --> 02:16:37.479
middling or bad games have really compelling, crazy development stories attached to them that

1998
02:16:37.680 --> 02:16:43.319
are like described the game as being
completely in crisis. Yeah, so if

1999
02:16:43.360 --> 02:16:48.760
you made it through that project and
managed to get something on shelves, and

2000
02:16:48.239 --> 02:16:52.840
by some miracle it did not burst
into flames and take people with it when

2001
02:16:52.879 --> 02:16:56.680
it went. That is probably still
pretty good for your resume. Sure.

2002
02:16:56.840 --> 02:16:58.360
I mean, you know, if
you can say, like, hey,

2003
02:16:58.440 --> 02:17:03.879
I'm actually like the creative direct or, I'm the person behind this great award

2004
02:17:03.959 --> 02:17:07.479
winning game, like, that's great
too. But my understanding is that like

2005
02:17:07.600 --> 02:17:11.680
the people that are you know,
in the trenches sticking it out, fucking

2006
02:17:11.760 --> 02:17:15.879
making shit happen on these games that
you know go on to get shipped on

2007
02:17:16.040 --> 02:17:22.719
by assholes like us or or totally
passed over by assholes like us, there's

2008
02:17:22.719 --> 02:17:26.239
still real value in that. Yeah, And I gotta believe that. I

2009
02:17:26.280 --> 02:17:33.639
don't know how the music biz do, but I would imagine sending in that

2010
02:17:33.879 --> 02:17:46.639
music itself is gonna influence someone's decision
work much more than yeah, music work,

2011
02:17:46.879 --> 02:17:48.399
you know, particularly in a game
where whether it's you know, how

2012
02:17:48.479 --> 02:17:52.760
interactive it is or what or whatever
it might not be in you know,

2013
02:17:52.879 --> 02:17:56.520
the realm of the composer or something
like that that much. But you know,

2014
02:17:56.680 --> 02:17:58.479
like the the actual music of the
game, that, yeah, that

2015
02:17:58.520 --> 02:18:00.399
totally stand on its own. It's
like, hey, you'd like this music,

2016
02:18:00.440 --> 02:18:01.280
we like the style of music,
or you know, we want something

2017
02:18:01.360 --> 02:18:03.760
like it, And then it becomes
like, well, did did so?

2018
02:18:05.000 --> 02:18:07.399
Did this person turn it in in
a timely fashion? Were they easy to

2019
02:18:07.440 --> 02:18:09.440
work with if we needed a change
made? Could they make it really quickly?

2020
02:18:11.120 --> 02:18:13.840
I mean in Tilton's case, he
was not internal on that project,

2021
02:18:13.959 --> 02:18:18.520
like he was external doing the score
and stuff, so as like a contractor,

2022
02:18:18.959 --> 02:18:20.959
it would be like, Okay,
how easy was he to work with?

2023
02:18:20.399 --> 02:18:24.360
Was he a total dick? Probably? Probably? Probably Tilton? He's

2024
02:18:24.399 --> 02:18:31.280
wasted constantly. Can't trust him,
No, obviously, you know we're friends

2025
02:18:31.280 --> 02:18:33.520
with him, so grain of salt
or whatever. Like I went back and

2026
02:18:33.520 --> 02:18:35.040
watched some footage of sim City when
we were doing the awards and stuff,

2027
02:18:35.040 --> 02:18:39.159
and like that music is like fucking
perfect for that kind of game, except

2028
02:18:39.159 --> 02:18:45.159
for that part, Like there's one
song where it's really good. Yeah,

2029
02:18:45.639 --> 02:18:48.360
weird, I don't know, the
music can't the music can't turn left a

2030
02:18:48.399 --> 02:18:50.559
little a little really strange, and
the music was a little slow, like

2031
02:18:50.639 --> 02:18:54.600
originally it was running it like the
music was running cheetah speed. And then

2032
02:18:54.879 --> 02:19:00.000
no, I don't think that being
associated with a bad game or a disappoint

2033
02:19:00.000 --> 02:19:03.719
poinning game, and in that case
necessarily is bad for your career. If

2034
02:19:03.760 --> 02:19:07.719
you're the person at the top of
a project that went totally sideways, and

2035
02:19:07.879 --> 02:19:11.760
that the stories that get around the
business are that went bad because the people

2036
02:19:11.760 --> 02:19:15.360
at the top didn't know what the
fuck they were doing, that might be

2037
02:19:15.440 --> 02:19:18.520
a problem, But even those people
get jobs. I think, well,

2038
02:19:18.799 --> 02:19:20.319
if the game were terrible and the
music were bad, oh yeah, if

2039
02:19:20.360 --> 02:19:24.000
the music was bad, then yeah, that's feel like the thing people are

2040
02:19:24.040 --> 02:19:26.959
talking about was like the music.
So yeah, I mean to your excure

2041
02:19:26.000 --> 02:19:28.639
point about it being better to ship
a bad game than no game, Like,

2042
02:19:28.879 --> 02:19:31.559
maybe maybe this should be totally self
evident, but it seems like the

2043
02:19:31.600 --> 02:19:37.079
people who make video games understand all
the many different ways that making a video

2044
02:19:37.120 --> 02:19:39.360
game can go wrong. Yeah,
and moreover, they understand that a game

2045
02:19:39.399 --> 02:19:43.440
coming out bad is not necessarily the
fault of anyone or you know, handful

2046
02:19:43.479 --> 02:19:46.159
of people on the team necessarily exactly. It's like, and you know,

2047
02:19:46.239 --> 02:19:48.159
you can be attached to a good
game, but you could still be a

2048
02:19:48.200 --> 02:19:52.520
total fuck up, right it could
have been you know, in spite of

2049
02:19:52.639 --> 02:19:54.760
you being garbage, the game still
came out fantastic. Conversily, you can

2050
02:19:54.799 --> 02:19:58.440
have a bunch of really talented people
working on a project under all kinds of

2051
02:19:58.559 --> 02:20:03.159
dress that makes it come out in
some horrible compromised state. Yeah, so

2052
02:20:03.200 --> 02:20:05.440
I suspect that, Like, you
know, when it comes to that sort

2053
02:20:05.440 --> 02:20:09.200
of process, like if you're a
hiring manager and you're doing it the right

2054
02:20:09.239 --> 02:20:13.120
way, you are finding the good
people and you're you're getting the stories out

2055
02:20:13.159 --> 02:20:15.680
of them and going like, tell
me about this project and what were the

2056
02:20:15.760 --> 02:20:20.079
challenges associated with it and how did
you you address those challenges personally? Plus

2057
02:20:20.120 --> 02:20:22.079
you know, like you know,
artist Steph portfolios, you know, like

2058
02:20:22.120 --> 02:20:24.719
I always hear about, you know, people being hired in programming jobs,

2059
02:20:24.799 --> 02:20:28.959
you know, often put on the
spot and have to solve serious serious right

2060
02:20:28.959 --> 02:20:31.120
now, eating a hot dog,
I mean a hot dog. What would

2061
02:20:31.120 --> 02:20:37.559
be some good hot dog music for
this hot dog game we're making seven Yeah,

2062
02:20:37.479 --> 02:20:41.360
weird time signature, it's about hot
dogs. That being said, I

2063
02:20:41.479 --> 02:20:46.920
bet it's pretty awesome when everything comes
together and you're a piece of the game

2064
02:20:48.520 --> 02:20:50.120
is also a piece of one of
the greatest games. Oh sure, yeah,

2065
02:20:50.479 --> 02:20:54.600
I did that. I did that. Yeah, music for Brennan Paradise.

2066
02:20:54.639 --> 02:20:58.479
It's it's funny. Yeah, I
picked out the soundtrack for Yeah,

2067
02:20:58.680 --> 02:21:01.040
it's all weird. Ever, once
in a while, when like we you

2068
02:21:01.120 --> 02:21:03.520
know, if we panned the game
for something like a year ago, two

2069
02:21:03.559 --> 02:21:07.319
years ago, and then it gets
to the point where the people who made

2070
02:21:07.360 --> 02:21:09.799
it feel comfortable talking about it.
Yeah, and then you hear specific stories

2071
02:21:09.840 --> 02:21:13.840
of the perfilliate, like things were
bad about the game that you look at

2072
02:21:13.920 --> 02:21:18.120
and you went like, what person
in the right mind would make it this

2073
02:21:18.200 --> 02:21:22.079
way? And then you hear the
story like it was Yeah, you hear

2074
02:21:22.120 --> 02:21:24.719
the story a couple of years later
of exactly why it came out that way,

2075
02:21:24.760 --> 02:21:26.760
and you're like, oh, well, nobody in their right mind wanted

2076
02:21:26.799 --> 02:21:28.879
to do it that way, right, Just hear the like three to five

2077
02:21:28.959 --> 02:21:33.079
fucked up things that converged and made
it happen like that weird eleventh hour mandate.

2078
02:21:33.239 --> 02:21:37.200
Right. It's always really funny to
me to like it's happen. It's

2079
02:21:37.200 --> 02:21:41.079
happened multiple times where I've reviewed a
game, pointed out flaws with a game,

2080
02:21:41.799 --> 02:21:43.000
like, you know, six months
a year later something like that,

2081
02:21:43.120 --> 02:21:46.920
had a conversation with someone who worked
on the game and said, yeah,

2082
02:21:46.920 --> 02:21:50.280
you're right, this game was like
maybe you were a little easy on it

2083
02:21:50.280 --> 02:21:54.520
because this happened and this they kind
of tell a few stories that the scarred

2084
02:21:54.600 --> 02:22:00.479
them and then to think back about
like angry people that were angry about that

2085
02:22:00.559 --> 02:22:03.000
review that we're defending this game that
even the people that worked on it were

2086
02:22:03.079 --> 02:22:07.840
like, no, no, this
is we got away with it on this

2087
02:22:07.959 --> 02:22:11.799
one good thing. These guys on
this message board really like us because that

2088
02:22:11.840 --> 02:22:15.760
happens all the time. Yeah,
you even hear stories like that about games

2089
02:22:15.799 --> 02:22:20.000
that came out and were universally praised. Sure, yeah seeple the best games

2090
02:22:20.000 --> 02:22:22.280
of the year. Like you'll hear
their developers say like, we were really

2091
02:22:22.319 --> 02:22:24.879
sweating that, right, We didn't
know, We had no idea if that

2092
02:22:24.959 --> 02:22:28.559
was any good or not. Like
some questionable decisions happen at the very end

2093
02:22:28.600 --> 02:22:33.639
there. And yeah, that's over
the last five or six years, I

2094
02:22:33.719 --> 02:22:37.319
feel like I've learned more about how
games are made than I have over any

2095
02:22:37.440 --> 02:22:41.200
time I've had before. That totally. And it's that thing where it's like

2096
02:22:41.319 --> 02:22:46.360
it's amazing that anything ever comes out
because everything is always on fire. Everything

2097
02:22:46.440 --> 02:22:48.799
is a nightmare. Like, yeah, that's the most assfiying revelation for me.

2098
02:22:48.959 --> 02:22:52.879
Is somebody who has to put a
stamp on the quality of a game.

2099
02:22:52.040 --> 02:22:54.559
Is that most of the people that
make games seem to be very realistic

2100
02:22:54.639 --> 02:22:58.280
about the process of making games.
You know. You do run into people

2101
02:22:58.319 --> 02:23:01.280
here and there, though, Yeah, that will you angry letters about how

2102
02:23:01.399 --> 02:23:05.760
you have taken food off their table
with your review of their game, which

2103
02:23:05.840 --> 02:23:13.559
is always very crazy and very detached
from reality, but interesting nonetheless. But

2104
02:23:13.639 --> 02:23:16.840
yeah, by large, it seems
like, you know, by the time

2105
02:23:16.040 --> 02:23:18.719
something is actually coming out, most
of the people who are working on it

2106
02:23:18.879 --> 02:23:26.280
are way more aware than a reviewer
is about any issues a game may have.

2107
02:23:26.639 --> 02:23:30.120
Yeah, and I can tell you
after being on that side, you

2108
02:23:30.399 --> 02:23:35.559
know, you know where the problems
are, and you just want the reviewer

2109
02:23:35.639 --> 02:23:41.000
to give it a fair shake,
like you want to him to understand or

2110
02:23:41.079 --> 02:23:48.760
her your side of the story.
No, this is like you you you

2111
02:23:48.840 --> 02:23:52.840
want them. Yeah, I guess
well, you can't necessarily go that far

2112
02:23:52.920 --> 02:23:56.159
because from a purely consumer oriented point
of view, all that matters is what's

2113
02:23:56.159 --> 02:23:58.639
in the box, you know,
and what somebody who sixty is going to

2114
02:23:58.680 --> 02:24:01.120
see. Yeah, I'm not I'm
not saying they need to understand like where

2115
02:24:01.280 --> 02:24:05.840
the game came from, but like, okay, they understand what we were

2116
02:24:05.920 --> 02:24:11.799
trying to do, and yes it
doesn't work. They are blasting it for

2117
02:24:11.040 --> 02:24:13.479
very fair reasons. You just wanted
to be fair. I guess yeah,

2118
02:24:13.520 --> 02:24:16.840
like they're I've definitely seen some people
out there, some developers out there,

2119
02:24:16.879 --> 02:24:20.239
and say, like, you know, it's reviewers should really know what it

2120
02:24:20.319 --> 02:24:22.719
takes to make a game, and
that is one hundred percent wrong. Like

2121
02:24:24.120 --> 02:24:26.520
I honestly feel like I know a
little too much about how games are made.

2122
02:24:28.479 --> 02:24:31.040
I wish I knew less. Well
whatever, if I was going to

2123
02:24:31.079 --> 02:24:35.600
be reviewing games constantly, if that
was still my thing full time, I

2124
02:24:35.719 --> 02:24:41.079
would not talk to game developers because
you don't want to know. No,

2125
02:24:41.280 --> 02:24:43.920
it doesn't matter if you're recommending games
to consumers, Like those are interesting stories,

2126
02:24:43.959 --> 02:24:48.479
they have their place, But when
it comes to saying, hey,

2127
02:24:48.600 --> 02:24:52.479
is this game any good or not, they're intent barely matters. It's what

2128
02:24:52.680 --> 02:24:54.200
is in the box? Does it
work? Is it functional? Is it

2129
02:24:54.280 --> 02:24:58.079
fun? Does it look good?
Is it too much? Is it on

2130
02:24:58.200 --> 02:25:01.120
fire? It's how many times did
it crash? I want to know.

2131
02:25:01.200 --> 02:25:05.680
I want the inserts, no more
manuals, how many pas does it have?

2132
02:25:05.000 --> 02:25:07.719
No more epilepsy warnings? I want
to know the budget, how long

2133
02:25:07.799 --> 02:25:11.520
you had, how many people were
on your team, and the names of

2134
02:25:11.520 --> 02:25:13.799
all the production babies. Well we
get those at the credits. This just

2135
02:25:13.879 --> 02:25:18.239
starts the credits with the budget and
the time. It's just like how many

2136
02:25:18.280 --> 02:25:22.159
people turned over? What was your
contractor rate? Like how many dinners did

2137
02:25:22.239 --> 02:25:26.639
we feed the team on the way
through crunch? That just raw numbers,

2138
02:25:26.719 --> 02:25:28.520
just meant did you hit your milestones? Did you hit your first you know

2139
02:25:28.639 --> 02:25:33.440
original? Is the GM of your
studio a piece of garbage? Yeah,

2140
02:25:33.719 --> 02:25:37.079
that's just it. You just see
it's just you look at surveys from everyone

2141
02:25:37.319 --> 02:25:39.799
in the credits. You can click
on their name and see the survey.

2142
02:25:39.040 --> 02:25:45.399
Did you think the GM was terrible? Did someone from the corporate parent come

2143
02:25:45.440 --> 02:25:48.760
in and fuck your ship up at
the last possible minute? Were you shipping

2144
02:25:48.799 --> 02:25:54.760
on a console that wasn't finished yet? There'd be fantastic and credit buffer.

2145
02:25:54.799 --> 02:25:58.559
I would watch credits that's like wow, huh, like you finished the game

2146
02:25:58.680 --> 02:26:03.000
or your opinions already done, and
then just get this in. Check this

2147
02:26:03.079 --> 02:26:05.280
out, check this out? Did
you like it? Wow? Wow?

2148
02:26:05.920 --> 02:26:11.319
Thanks ship. Here's some screenshot twelve
hours before we lock the issues one one

2149
02:26:11.559 --> 02:26:16.319
lost still under and then see like
the end is just the bug list that

2150
02:26:16.479 --> 02:26:20.159
was like at the end of everything. Yeah, that's actually that everything that

2151
02:26:20.239 --> 02:26:24.760
got waved at the last minute.
And then like people's comments on it,

2152
02:26:24.879 --> 02:26:26.719
like yeah, fuck, that's fucked
up. Could not reproduce. Did you

2153
02:26:26.799 --> 02:26:31.520
find this in there somewhere? I
don't know. We'll ship it out of

2154
02:26:31.559 --> 02:26:33.799
these people and someone will find it. Hopefully they won't, I don't know.

2155
02:26:35.079 --> 02:26:39.520
Just audio logs that are actually meetings
from the game's develop Like it's like

2156
02:26:39.559 --> 02:26:45.760
the Valve developer commentary mode, but
piped into like BioShock styled audio logs.

2157
02:26:45.920 --> 02:26:48.239
You find them around the world,
and it's just like, did you know

2158
02:26:48.319 --> 02:26:50.280
if you stand here for eight minutes
looking out this window, the game eventually

2159
02:26:50.280 --> 02:26:54.639
crash this like one that's just like
I knew somebody was gonna find a way

2160
02:26:54.639 --> 02:26:56.120
to get up here. I knew
it. You're probably stuck. You fell

2161
02:26:56.200 --> 02:26:58.360
through the world. But now you
can listen to me. Let me tell

2162
02:26:58.399 --> 02:27:05.399
you about my dead audiology auologus bugs
in my cue. I don't know how

2163
02:27:05.719 --> 02:27:09.719
any of them, this is one
of them. The thing you're experiencing right

2164
02:27:09.719 --> 02:27:13.280
now. I've been staring at this
code for four months fucking straight. I

2165
02:27:13.559 --> 02:27:15.680
didn't know it in and out,
but I don't know any of it anymore.

2166
02:27:15.879 --> 02:27:18.319
We have to just ship it now, and when it'll go out there

2167
02:27:18.360 --> 02:27:22.719
and it's fucked, but it leads
to people will find and reproduce the parts

2168
02:27:22.760 --> 02:27:26.639
that are fucked because I can't fucking
see it anymore. So great, and

2169
02:27:26.719 --> 02:27:30.920
then we'll be able to fix it. I don't know. I know the

2170
02:27:31.040 --> 02:27:33.079
code reaches this line somehow, but
I don't know how to stop it.

2171
02:27:33.239 --> 02:27:35.639
Yeah, but when it hits here, it's going to trigger this audiologue,

2172
02:27:37.159 --> 02:27:39.159
right, I'm sorry, right,
and right before the game crashes, it

2173
02:27:39.200 --> 02:27:45.879
will say I'm very sorry, so, and then it'll hang. It'll save

2174
02:27:45.920 --> 02:27:50.399
your game right here. That'd be
great, like just a little error trap.

2175
02:27:50.200 --> 02:27:56.399
It's like quick save game development.
Yeah, I don't know how stuff

2176
02:27:56.399 --> 02:28:01.479
gets done. I don't know either. It's it sounds ridiculous. It's insane.

2177
02:28:01.840 --> 02:28:03.840
At least, it's insane at large
companies. It's insane at small companies

2178
02:28:03.920 --> 02:28:07.040
like the you know, there are
risks associated with either path, like there's

2179
02:28:07.639 --> 02:28:11.559
you know, it's it's fun to
hear all the you know, the kind

2180
02:28:11.600 --> 02:28:15.040
of small team indie stories about like
people just like I put my life savings

2181
02:28:15.079 --> 02:28:18.239
into this project and it paid off, and now I'm a millionaire. And

2182
02:28:18.280 --> 02:28:20.239
then I went crazy, you know, like whatever, Like that stuff's super

2183
02:28:20.440 --> 02:28:24.280
interesting. But I've heard plenty of
great stories about huge games too, But

2184
02:28:24.479 --> 02:28:28.639
like it's the only thing like movies, And like movies, I used to

2185
02:28:28.719 --> 02:28:31.920
think the same thing, Like I'm
I'm amazed at any big budget movie ever

2186
02:28:33.000 --> 02:28:35.200
gets me. There's just so much
stuff involved. But at the end of

2187
02:28:35.280 --> 02:28:37.159
the day, it's a it's a
render out, it's compact, and it

2188
02:28:37.319 --> 02:28:41.520
is what it is for every person
that experiences. Right, It's like you

2189
02:28:41.840 --> 02:28:43.440
send that that movie. No matter
where you watch it, you're gonna get

2190
02:28:43.440 --> 02:28:48.520
the same experience. With the game
that's interactive, there's people just trying to

2191
02:28:48.600 --> 02:28:50.600
fuck like me, just trying to
break that shit constantly. Yeah, just

2192
02:28:52.000 --> 02:28:54.799
on my weird machine on my computer, Yeah, exactly, and throw it

2193
02:28:54.840 --> 02:28:58.079
on a PC where you deal with
a million different configurations, deal with consoles

2194
02:28:58.120 --> 02:29:01.280
where they may have have the hardware
in such a way that like, oh,

2195
02:29:01.360 --> 02:29:05.319
our game ran fine on the first
revision, and then this weird little

2196
02:29:05.440 --> 02:29:07.559
thing that we did that no other
game does just for whatever reason, it

2197
02:29:07.559 --> 02:29:11.639
doesn't work on rif seven of the
fucking Xboxies. Its fuck great. Yeah,

2198
02:29:11.760 --> 02:29:18.520
I don't know any yeah, yep, weird. So what was the

2199
02:29:18.600 --> 02:29:22.319
question, right, yes, yeah, yeah, totally yeah. No,

2200
02:29:22.399 --> 02:29:24.479
I don't think. I don't think
Chris Tilton's career was harmed by doing the

2201
02:29:24.559 --> 02:29:26.719
music for sim City, right,
But I don't know. I'm not his

2202
02:29:26.799 --> 02:29:35.040
agent yet. Well, I guess
that's gonna do it for the podcast for

2203
02:29:35.159 --> 02:29:39.280
this week. That whole Sony keynote
sure was well whatever it cs like,

2204
02:29:39.319 --> 02:29:43.120
they're obviously going to talk about their
four KTVs Brad anything new coming out of

2205
02:29:43.200 --> 02:29:46.520
it. I don't see anybody else
saying no. They just put out that

2206
02:29:46.559 --> 02:29:52.200
press release they said, here are
here are companies that are making boxes.

2207
02:29:52.920 --> 02:29:56.120
No other stats about the boxes.
Do we have any extra PCs around here

2208
02:29:56.120 --> 02:29:58.799
that we could throw SteamOS on?
We should get that old gay way that

2209
02:29:58.799 --> 02:30:01.479
we is to use for stuff.
I didn't use that. Yeah, yeah,

2210
02:30:01.520 --> 02:30:05.360
we should look and see if what
respects of that are. Let's let's

2211
02:30:05.360 --> 02:30:07.159
see if it. You can't so, I guess you can't dual boot it

2212
02:30:07.280 --> 02:30:11.879
right now with the version of the
of the s they have out right now,

2213
02:30:11.920 --> 02:30:13.079
it doesn't dual boots. You have
to you have to take over a

2214
02:30:13.120 --> 02:30:22.600
whole machine with its it with the
steam. I do have a brand new

2215
02:30:24.040 --> 02:30:28.959
it's one hundred and twenty gig about
I d E drive. We got mixed

2216
02:30:28.000 --> 02:30:31.520
in with one of our like four
terabyte stage throw that in there. Yeah,

2217
02:30:31.639 --> 02:30:37.479
so just screamings isn't at least like
super fast? No, I don't

2218
02:30:37.479 --> 02:30:41.719
think so. I feel like I
feel like this. I'm sorry to interrupt

2219
02:30:41.719 --> 02:30:43.159
it. I feel like this tweet
from Will Smith pretty much sums up CS.

2220
02:30:43.559 --> 02:30:46.319
Let's hear it. We aren't doing
the nightly live shows this year.

2221
02:30:46.399 --> 02:30:50.959
Our hotel bandwidth sucks, but there
isn't much worth talking about anyway, all

2222
02:30:52.040 --> 02:30:58.399
right, CE twenty fourteen complaining about
CS is the new CS. At some

2223
02:30:58.520 --> 02:31:05.760
points, stop going whatever I would
have gone. I hope they flew this

2224
02:31:05.879 --> 02:31:07.959
year. Yeah, yeah, Well, if they're not doing the live show

2225
02:31:09.000 --> 02:31:11.319
then I don't have to bring gear, then they probably don't have to drive.

2226
02:31:13.239 --> 02:31:18.959
In fact, I'm pretty sure they
flew. That's good now that I

2227
02:31:18.040 --> 02:31:22.040
think about it, that I remember
seeing them talking about airports. They really

2228
02:31:22.159 --> 02:31:26.719
enjoyed that van trip. Yeah,
totally like a good really proud of the

2229
02:31:26.799 --> 02:31:28.159
video I made. Yeah, totally, it was great fun that was a

2230
02:31:28.200 --> 02:31:33.159
fun one to do. I love
road trips. We should I should force

2231
02:31:33.200 --> 02:31:37.799
you guys to drive with me to
E three next year. I mean this

2232
02:31:37.959 --> 02:31:41.719
year. This year, let's drive
to Japan. Okay, ye're still driving

2233
02:31:41.719 --> 02:31:48.479
those any three anymore? The threason, like five six six months still in

2234
02:31:48.639 --> 02:31:52.959
La Yeah, I think. So, yeah, what are they gonna show?

2235
02:31:54.879 --> 02:31:56.840
Well, they're gonna show. I
don't know. You tell me what

2236
02:31:56.920 --> 02:32:00.959
are they gonna show? Give me
your your your prediction for twenty fourteen.

2237
02:32:01.479 --> 02:32:05.479
As we're getting the year out of
the way before anything gets announced, this

2238
02:32:05.639 --> 02:32:07.639
is the time to do it.
So. Uh, Nintendo has a new

2239
02:32:07.719 --> 02:32:13.200
peripheral Okay, you're gonna love it, am I. Is it a vitality

2240
02:32:13.239 --> 02:32:16.959
sensor? Nope, can attract my
heart rate? Yes, it's not a

2241
02:32:16.079 --> 02:32:20.879
tele censor. Uh. Fitness is
gonna be big again on all the platforms.

2242
02:32:22.280 --> 02:32:28.520
I think they're gonna everybody's gonna fitbits
are gonna interface with xboxes and you

2243
02:32:28.600 --> 02:32:31.440
know all that stuff, and and
that's gonna be a big thing. Okay,

2244
02:32:33.360 --> 02:32:39.399
let's see QR codes are huge,
Like game wise, you're gonna be

2245
02:32:39.440 --> 02:32:45.440
You're gonna have your two new ips
from Microsoft. I saw, I saw

2246
02:32:45.479 --> 02:32:48.200
major Nelson tonight tweet a code from
actually Curse of Brotherhood and it was QR

2247
02:32:48.280 --> 02:32:54.920
code. Nice app it's happening,
It's happening. QR codes are finally well

2248
02:32:54.959 --> 02:32:56.639
whatever. At least it got them
to use that stop using that stupid Microsoft

2249
02:32:56.719 --> 02:33:01.239
tag reader thing. Yeah. I
don't know what the big thing is going

2250
02:33:01.280 --> 02:33:05.399
to be time new time Splitters fucking
video games. I hope I hope so

2251
02:33:05.559 --> 02:33:13.040
Too announced some goddamn games. I
watched some Japanese wrestling over the weekend,

2252
02:33:13.959 --> 02:33:18.120
like pro wrestling, Yes, professional
wrestling live via the internet, not pay

2253
02:33:18.159 --> 02:33:24.479
per view live from Japan. Wow. And there was a tag team called

2254
02:33:24.600 --> 02:33:28.360
Time Splitters. Nice and they came
out in a DeLorean, actual an actual

2255
02:33:28.440 --> 02:33:33.479
del Yeah, and one of them
was wearing a Marty McFly vest. How

2256
02:33:33.479 --> 02:33:35.879
did they get the DeLorean in the
ring. They didn't drive it to the

2257
02:33:35.959 --> 02:33:37.479
ring. They drove it out to
the entrance ramp or whatever and then walked

2258
02:33:37.559 --> 02:33:41.040
down from there. Did have a
mister fusion, No, it was just

2259
02:33:41.159 --> 02:33:45.360
a stock DeLorean like kind of den
it up. They had overhead shot and

2260
02:33:45.360 --> 02:33:48.319
you could see like it's had some
finder binds in there. The driving it

2261
02:33:48.440 --> 02:33:50.760
or they drove it in and it
got out running. Yeah. Ok,

2262
02:33:50.079 --> 02:33:56.079
yeah, huh yeah. So that's
that for me, is the first clear

2263
02:33:56.120 --> 02:34:01.120
sign that there's going to be a
new time Splitters. Yeah yeah yeah.

2264
02:34:01.920 --> 02:34:05.680
Bradney predictions, I mean, like
I said, I just well hope games.

2265
02:34:05.719 --> 02:34:09.319
Yeah, it's not so much a
prediction as a desire. We're just

2266
02:34:09.479 --> 02:34:11.079
you know, like, fucking where's
Fallout four? You know, we're stuff

2267
02:34:11.120 --> 02:34:15.639
like that. Yeah, we're are
games to get excited about. I think

2268
02:34:15.680 --> 02:34:18.120
Fallout four will come out this year
because there's not Yeah, I hope so,

2269
02:34:18.239 --> 02:34:18.719
because there's not a whole lot else. I mean, you know,

2270
02:34:18.799 --> 02:34:22.280
I really want to play Infamous.
I know a lot of people are super

2271
02:34:22.319 --> 02:34:24.760
stoked about Titan Fall. Well I
have it the big What else is there?

2272
02:34:26.040 --> 02:34:30.200
It's Half Life coming out this year. This is the year, I

2273
02:34:30.239 --> 02:34:35.319
don't know, maybe fuck it?
Yeah sure, yeah yeah, why not

2274
02:34:35.520 --> 02:34:37.799
just stol Sure, I'm just gonna
say that every January from here to the

2275
02:34:37.920 --> 02:34:41.639
end of time. Yeah, this
is the year fralf Life to come out.

2276
02:34:41.680 --> 02:34:43.920
I'll eventually be right. No,
I won't, No, because you

2277
02:34:45.040 --> 02:34:46.959
lose like five fingers every time you're
wrong. Like, wait, I only

2278
02:34:48.040 --> 02:34:52.040
have ten I know, I want
to take this back that gives you a

2279
02:34:52.120 --> 02:34:56.879
full decade. No a shot,
not a finger a year, five fingers

2280
02:34:56.920 --> 02:34:58.920
a year? Oh oh I'm sorry, yeah, no were I thought it

2281
02:34:58.959 --> 02:35:05.479
was time thought the finger in January. I'm waiting that long fingers. Can

2282
02:35:05.520 --> 02:35:07.879
you pick which which five they are? Yeah? Sure, like two pinkies

2283
02:35:09.120 --> 02:35:15.520
and two ring fingers, yeah yeah, yeah sure, space amount. I

2284
02:35:15.559 --> 02:35:18.840
don't like this conversation. This is
just creepy. You can have four four

2285
02:35:20.159 --> 02:35:22.520
yeah, I need these three.
I need the thumb, four finger and

2286
02:35:22.559 --> 02:35:28.680
middle fingers. Yeah, so I
can shoot business guns all the time.

2287
02:35:28.680 --> 02:35:35.040
Yeah, ring finger and pinky just
getting away. I'll get buyed, figure

2288
02:35:35.120 --> 02:35:39.200
something out. Uh that would be. That would be make this year really

2289
02:35:39.280 --> 02:35:41.959
fun. I just want to see
the announcement. I just want to see

2290
02:35:43.360 --> 02:35:46.600
how they do it. I want
to see Twitter shut down. I want

2291
02:35:46.600 --> 02:35:48.879
to see the Internet explode, and
then I want to see that game come

2292
02:35:48.920 --> 02:35:54.639
out, and then I want to
see everybody be like, huh oh huh

2293
02:35:54.000 --> 02:36:03.920
h it's a mobi weird zombies.
That's me. I didn't expect Gordon Freeman's

2294
02:36:03.920 --> 02:36:09.360
first words to be pills here but
well, or to have to pay for

2295
02:36:09.479 --> 02:36:15.120
it, but weird. Yeah,
that would be to me. Twenty fourteen

2296
02:36:15.120 --> 02:36:18.040
would be very exciting if that happened, so well, the threat of it

2297
02:36:18.159 --> 02:36:24.159
happening makes it exciting nonetheless, right, just like the last ten years.

2298
02:36:24.600 --> 02:36:28.079
Yeah, I don't even care anymore. I don't remember where that kind of

2299
02:36:28.360 --> 02:36:31.120
like every time people get all up
on arms about where it's half like three,

2300
02:36:31.200 --> 02:36:33.399
I'm like, fucking but it's what
do you talk for me? It's

2301
02:36:33.479 --> 02:36:37.920
it's the last big thing, right, it's the last it's forever came outs

2302
02:36:37.959 --> 02:36:41.360
are out. I guess, like
what's suspended in the air right now?

2303
02:36:41.520 --> 02:36:46.879
Like that that's kind of it that
in the last guarding Yeah, and blizzards

2304
02:36:46.959 --> 02:36:52.280
next thing, but like not even
that, like that seems so nebulous and

2305
02:36:52.879 --> 02:36:56.840
out there, But like this is
a thing that is a parody, right,

2306
02:36:56.920 --> 02:37:00.440
that is a joke at this point. They never said we're making half

2307
02:37:00.520 --> 02:37:03.879
Life three. It's a same they
leave it off. It's been supposed to

2308
02:37:03.920 --> 02:37:05.719
be a series. I mean there
was a cliffhanger. Yeah, it's episodic,

2309
02:37:07.120 --> 02:37:09.360
but whatever, they're coming out every
year, like a Half Life two

2310
02:37:09.479 --> 02:37:13.120
episode three is due, but a
half Life three is not sure what a

2311
02:37:13.239 --> 02:37:16.360
new half Life I think they know
how fucking outstanding would it be if they

2312
02:37:16.440 --> 02:37:20.440
waited this long and then put out
something that was Half Life two episodes three,

2313
02:37:20.719 --> 02:37:22.239
that would be great. Just like
it's this four hour thing. You

2314
02:37:22.280 --> 02:37:28.600
wouldn't Alex on an old engine that
would be great. That would be fantastic.

2315
02:37:28.680 --> 02:37:31.040
And he plays Alex and he's just
not even Gordon, right, Yeah,

2316
02:37:31.200 --> 02:37:35.040
Cord gets smoked like five minutes in
or it's like this is are passed

2317
02:37:35.079 --> 02:37:39.920
out, it's a flashback. Yeah, yeah, I would be great.

2318
02:37:41.000 --> 02:37:48.159
Sure, why not new Portal?
Yeah? No, yeah, I'm not

2319
02:37:48.280 --> 02:37:52.680
that excited either, Like, yeah, like even the the basic assumption that

2320
02:37:52.840 --> 02:37:56.000
like Left for Dead three is something
they're actively working on, like that doesn't

2321
02:37:56.040 --> 02:38:00.360
well would I'm the wrong person for
that anyway, But I mean that seems

2322
02:38:00.399 --> 02:38:03.520
more likely than the other stuff.
But still, like I mean, like

2323
02:38:03.680 --> 02:38:05.120
for me, Valve is in is
it in a particular spot where I feel

2324
02:38:05.120 --> 02:38:09.879
like they have the freedom to experiment
and do a lot of weird things with

2325
02:38:09.040 --> 02:38:13.120
with games. C Clint Hawking is
not longer a Valve. Yes, it's

2326
02:38:13.200 --> 02:38:16.959
kind of weird. He he was
there like less than a year, no

2327
02:38:18.680 --> 02:38:20.360
couple years or something. But I
don't know, fouls making all the game

2328
02:38:20.399 --> 02:38:24.840
I need right now? Do you
think I'll think twenty fourteen will be deep?

2329
02:38:24.239 --> 02:38:28.360
Like seriously, Well, yeah,
I did almost nothing but that the

2330
02:38:28.440 --> 02:38:31.799
second week of the break. But
uh, I mean I want to see

2331
02:38:31.799 --> 02:38:33.719
stuff from other companies, you know. Do you think I want to see

2332
02:38:33.799 --> 02:38:37.840
justifications for these new consoles? Sure? Yeah, from all like a zillion

2333
02:38:37.879 --> 02:38:41.680
other developers. Do you think another
realm will put a game out? They're

2334
02:38:41.760 --> 02:38:43.120
usually on a two year cycle,
and Justice came out last year, so

2335
02:38:43.559 --> 02:38:48.120
pretty good reason for their not to
be a Mortal Kombat. I don't this

2336
02:38:48.319 --> 02:38:52.399
year. But at the same time, I kind of feel like, now

2337
02:38:52.559 --> 02:38:54.040
is the time for a new Mortal
Kombat? Is it? Maybe that's just

2338
02:38:54.120 --> 02:38:58.079
me. I have no idea what
a new Mortal Kombat is. Yeah.

2339
02:38:58.440 --> 02:39:01.959
Same. They kind of burned through
all of their capital with the last one.

2340
02:39:01.120 --> 02:39:05.639
It's that Mobo right, like,
like you know, they captured all

2341
02:39:05.719 --> 02:39:09.000
three of the games that you remember
fondly. I think they just got to

2342
02:39:09.040 --> 02:39:11.360
go off on their own direction and
make new characters and just you know,

2343
02:39:11.520 --> 02:39:15.360
make a sequel to that game as
if the other games didn't exist. Sure,

2344
02:39:16.479 --> 02:39:18.799
that's probably the way to do that. I mean, no, chinak

2345
02:39:18.719 --> 02:39:22.879
no, they've already I think they've
already mentioned was in the new one.

2346
02:39:22.959 --> 02:39:26.239
Yeah, well where that motherfucker is, Shanak is sure to follow. I

2347
02:39:26.319 --> 02:39:31.079
think they do specifically reference Shinak in
in this in that last one. I

2348
02:39:31.079 --> 02:39:35.559
could be wrong, but I seem
to remember that being there. Uh what

2349
02:39:35.719 --> 02:39:37.479
else? What other teams are there? What other studios? I mean?

2350
02:39:37.600 --> 02:39:39.799
I think? I mean, you
know, Uncharted has already been announced,

2351
02:39:39.879 --> 02:39:43.040
but you know that doesn't mean that
Naughty Dog isn't also working on something else.

2352
02:39:43.159 --> 02:39:46.879
But that wouldn't happen this year.
But if like last year, is

2353
02:39:46.879 --> 02:39:50.680
any indication it's the smaller indie you
know, yeah, totally. Stuff that's

2354
02:39:50.680 --> 02:39:54.479
going to be games that you haven't
heard about yet, games that haven't even

2355
02:39:54.479 --> 02:39:56.479
been conceived yet. Let's make it
out in November totally. You know,

2356
02:39:56.680 --> 02:40:00.440
something like a No Man Sky that
just comes out of nowhere, damn,

2357
02:40:00.479 --> 02:40:01.600
and then you see it and you're
like, funk I want that? But

2358
02:40:05.319 --> 02:40:07.319
man, I'm trying to think,
Yeah, fall Out makes a lot of

2359
02:40:07.399 --> 02:40:09.200
sense. I mean, it's time, like they typically take like three years,

2360
02:40:09.360 --> 02:40:13.159
and it's been this holiday will have
been three years in skyriom right,

2361
02:40:13.479 --> 02:40:18.040
right, So yeah, even if
you know, if if by some weird

2362
02:40:20.319 --> 02:40:22.559
uh, like Twist of Fate,
it's not fall Out and it's something else.

2363
02:40:22.639 --> 02:40:24.600
Well, what about ever? It
is like they're they're due for a

2364
02:40:24.639 --> 02:40:28.200
game sky Room Online. What about
Oh that's a totally different team, different

2365
02:40:28.319 --> 02:40:33.440
everything, the company's different quality of
products, a different quality of product.

2366
02:40:33.719 --> 02:40:39.559
Is that coming out this year?
Sure? Think so? Yeah? All

2367
02:40:39.639 --> 02:40:41.799
right? Yeah? Fuck I don't. I don't know. No, no

2368
02:40:41.000 --> 02:40:46.799
like studio or developer like springs directly
to mind when I say I don't want

2369
02:40:46.840 --> 02:40:50.760
to see new games. But how
I met Mirror's Edge too. I bet

2370
02:40:50.840 --> 02:40:56.559
with Battlefield being so fucked that probably
derailed any work at Dice it was happening

2371
02:40:56.600 --> 02:41:01.879
on anything else. Yeah, I
bet that's true, because they suspended like

2372
02:41:01.879 --> 02:41:05.079
they're they're they're out there saying like
we suspended development all the DLC. So

2373
02:41:05.159 --> 02:41:07.159
you'd like to think that they,
you know, anyone that would have been

2374
02:41:07.200 --> 02:41:11.600
working on Mirror's Edge pre production or
wherever that is. I bet that.

2375
02:41:11.760 --> 02:41:13.799
I bet that doesn't happen this year. Yeah, they you know, they

2376
02:41:13.879 --> 02:41:16.000
really played the fire on that thing. You know, they're on the verge

2377
02:41:16.000 --> 02:41:20.079
of shareholder revolt over the state of
that game, Like they got to get

2378
02:41:20.079 --> 02:41:26.520
their act together. I hope we
don't see as much uh consolidation as we

2379
02:41:26.600 --> 02:41:31.000
did last year, with everything kind
of converging into one mega studio buying up

2380
02:41:31.280 --> 02:41:35.000
you know, students, smaller teams
going out of business, bigger teams getting

2381
02:41:35.120 --> 02:41:37.079
soaked up. I like the diversity. I mean, I don't don't think

2382
02:41:37.079 --> 02:41:39.600
we'll see a lot of it because
I don't know if there's a lot of

2383
02:41:39.639 --> 02:41:43.040
it left. Yeah, you know, Uh, maybe smaller teams will get

2384
02:41:43.040 --> 02:41:46.200
bigger, smaller studios will get bigger
and grow, and I don't know.

2385
02:41:46.719 --> 02:41:48.920
Yeah, I don't know either.
It's it just seems like, you know,

2386
02:41:48.159 --> 02:41:54.600
there's EA Activision like Microsoft and like
Sony Nintendo. You'd be soft.

2387
02:41:54.120 --> 02:41:58.559
They's huge. Well, like they
make the properties they make right and then

2388
02:41:58.639 --> 02:42:01.840
like they lean on those for a
while. Yeah, which, you know,

2389
02:42:03.000 --> 02:42:07.120
let's diversity flourish in the lower tier
of indie stuff. But like you

2390
02:42:07.200 --> 02:42:11.440
know, yeah, UB seems like
kind of a known quantity. Yeah,

2391
02:42:11.520 --> 02:42:16.559
and a lot of their stuff people
see in the town Clancy Movie Company.

2392
02:42:16.639 --> 02:42:18.319
Yeah, yeah, yeah they are. I think they've already. There was

2393
02:42:18.360 --> 02:42:22.760
some studio profile of the Splinter Cell
Studio saying, yep, take another one.

2394
02:42:24.719 --> 02:42:28.680
Got that Black Rocks studio. Yeah, they're doing some first party Microsoft

2395
02:42:28.719 --> 02:42:33.280
thing. The heck is it or
black black black Tusk studio they like found

2396
02:42:33.319 --> 02:42:37.200
it or whatever. I don't like
there's there have been a lot of people

2397
02:42:37.239 --> 02:42:37.920
going like, oh, I really
want to know what they're working on,

2398
02:42:39.040 --> 02:42:41.319
Like do they have a pedigree?
I don't know, are there are the

2399
02:42:41.360 --> 02:42:46.000
people they're running it from something?
That's the thing they implied that was the

2400
02:42:46.040 --> 02:42:48.959
case. Okay, I don't know
anything about it. That's just it seemed

2401
02:42:48.959 --> 02:42:54.280
like that was getting an undue level
of interest considering it's just so mysterious.

2402
02:42:54.280 --> 02:42:58.319
I think that's why. Yeah,
when's Fantasia come out? I don't know,

2403
02:43:00.200 --> 02:43:03.639
is it this year? I thought
that was that was launching, Like,

2404
02:43:03.840 --> 02:43:05.799
I had no idea it was never
launched. But yeah, that's yeah.

2405
02:43:07.280 --> 02:43:09.559
I'd be curious to see what those
guys do next. Ye, Like,

2406
02:43:11.200 --> 02:43:13.559
is that is the rhythm genre kind
of gone? Do you have to

2407
02:43:13.639 --> 02:43:18.319
move on? Do you reinvent it? Like other plastic instruments? Well that's

2408
02:43:18.360 --> 02:43:22.520
I think the reality is that I
don't think retailers would take plastic instruments again

2409
02:43:22.440 --> 02:43:28.200
too much. Shelf space learn that
lesson, I do, motherfucker, God

2410
02:43:28.319 --> 02:43:31.879
damn it. This is my this
is my DOTA moment. Then with you

2411
02:43:31.079 --> 02:43:35.840
then, because I do not understand
the fuck what are you talking about?

2412
02:43:35.639 --> 02:43:39.399
You have had plenty of good times
with the rock band franchise, don't pretend.

2413
02:43:41.280 --> 02:43:43.479
Yeah, I'm kind of with Brad. I'm just I'm over. I

2414
02:43:43.639 --> 02:43:46.520
recognize that it's awesome. I to
play it right now, but I just

2415
02:43:46.680 --> 02:43:50.959
don't want. I would because I
don't want to leave those consoles set up.

2416
02:43:52.159 --> 02:43:56.079
But do you need new instruments?
You just need that poured it up

2417
02:43:56.159 --> 02:43:58.360
to Yeah, you know, just
bring everything up and you can. Subscription

2418
02:43:58.440 --> 02:44:03.280
service music's, yes, a Spotify
for rock bands, where you are just

2419
02:44:03.440 --> 02:44:07.120
getting access to like, change that
business model to be more like that instead

2420
02:44:07.159 --> 02:44:09.719
of selling individual songs. Actually,
considering how much artists tend to not like

2421
02:44:09.799 --> 02:44:13.600
Spotify, I bet that wouldn't work
at all, but at least not at

2422
02:44:13.639 --> 02:44:16.799
a reasonable price. But god damn
it, that'd be great. I mean

2423
02:44:16.840 --> 02:44:18.760
also for me. I mean maybe
it's just that I've gotten to the point

2424
02:44:18.799 --> 02:44:20.760
where most of the people I know
we're married with kids. But I just

2425
02:44:20.840 --> 02:44:24.360
don't see myself like drunkenly convenient with
people to play this. I don't.

2426
02:44:24.520 --> 02:44:28.920
I guess anymore. Yes, I'm
not in this situation to fully enjoy rock

2427
02:44:28.959 --> 02:44:31.879
band as much as as I used
to be. Though last year I did

2428
02:44:31.920 --> 02:44:35.680
play it a few times on the
We Know Less because a friend of mine

2429
02:44:35.840 --> 02:44:41.000
that she had the version. This
is ridiculous though, totally. Yeah,

2430
02:44:41.040 --> 02:44:45.000
I mean yes, in a lot
of ways, my problems could be solved

2431
02:44:45.040 --> 02:44:46.840
by just hooking up at three sixty
and playing rock band three. It's a

2432
02:44:46.920 --> 02:44:52.120
better karaoke, it's a it's a
more, it's funding good for a group,

2433
02:44:52.360 --> 02:44:54.760
it's yeah, people who are like
scared of singing still have something they

2434
02:44:54.760 --> 02:44:58.879
can do. My big idea was
I wanted to get like the fancy drum,

2435
02:45:00.559 --> 02:45:03.120
the ion, yeah, and then
try to learn how to play the

2436
02:45:03.200 --> 02:45:05.079
drums like that was like two months
ago or a month ago. I was

2437
02:45:05.079 --> 02:45:09.719
like, man, I should try. I don't know, probably not,

2438
02:45:11.440 --> 02:45:13.159
but so yeah, so you'd probably
get one that was like beat of shit,

2439
02:45:13.840 --> 02:45:16.479
like yeah, I don't know,
maybe that maybe that's not realistic or

2440
02:45:16.520 --> 02:45:24.000
something, but yeah, rock band
was pretty awesome. I wish they would

2441
02:45:24.000 --> 02:45:26.079
make more of it. I don't
Yeah, I don't know what that studio

2442
02:45:26.159 --> 02:45:31.120
does if they come up with ideas
for rhythm games that are like because at

2443
02:45:31.159 --> 02:45:37.159
the same time, like rhythm games
without instruments, that dried up when the

2444
02:45:37.200 --> 02:45:39.719
instrument games came along, so I
don't know that you can really go back

2445
02:45:39.760 --> 02:45:43.079
to that. Like rock Band Blitz
was a neat idea at air Goodhart with

2446
02:45:43.159 --> 02:45:48.799
connect so as rock Band Unplugged for
the PlayStation port will develop a backbot entertainment.

2447
02:45:50.959 --> 02:45:54.319
Still remember getting my first demo of
rock Band Unplugged for the PSP in

2448
02:45:54.399 --> 02:46:00.479
the middle of my living room.
Alex Navarro out on a trip, so

2449
02:46:00.680 --> 02:46:01.360
yeah, all right, yeah you
want you want to see it, like

2450
02:46:01.399 --> 02:46:05.040
he was out showing it to print. So technically, as an online outlet,

2451
02:46:05.079 --> 02:46:07.120
we weren't supposed to be like,
yeah, show it to him,

2452
02:46:07.920 --> 02:46:11.559
you know what. I hooked it
up plaated like one song went yeah,

2453
02:46:11.559 --> 02:46:15.920
okay, I think of it.
I also got a demo of a harmonics

2454
02:46:16.000 --> 02:46:20.520
game in my living room. It
was Beatles, but that was because because

2455
02:46:20.559 --> 02:46:22.639
we didn't have Alito Yeah that's right, and they didn't have time to come

2456
02:46:22.719 --> 02:46:26.079
up there or something. So Sean
Baptiste like like slept the giant case of

2457
02:46:26.959 --> 02:46:31.920
Beetles, stuff of instruments and stuff
to my apartment in San Francisco, showed

2458
02:46:31.920 --> 02:46:35.440
me the game in my house.
Beatles the Rockman Beetles. It was Beatles.

2459
02:46:35.639 --> 02:46:41.040
Yeah, what a production. Yeah
that was Yeah. Those fuckers had

2460
02:46:41.200 --> 02:46:46.079
like Beetles at the Microsoft press conference. Crazy and you know it came out

2461
02:46:46.120 --> 02:46:52.680
the same day as they're like giant
remastered full catalog. Yeah. That game

2462
02:46:52.120 --> 02:46:56.639
made me appreciate the Beatles, which
I did not go up until that point,

2463
02:46:56.840 --> 02:46:58.680
like hearing the individual parts of the
songs and stuff like that, like

2464
02:47:01.959 --> 02:47:05.879
these songs are well written, interesting
parts. It did a lot for music

2465
02:47:07.040 --> 02:47:09.079
for me. Think Tony Hawk will
come back, no, yea, yeah

2466
02:47:09.159 --> 02:47:15.799
I will. I would love to
think that, Like, you know,

2467
02:47:16.040 --> 02:47:20.200
someone would would come along and put
out an amazing fucking skateboarding game, an

2468
02:47:20.200 --> 02:47:24.920
amazing one. I mean Skate's done, yeah, well, I mean for

2469
02:47:24.239 --> 02:47:26.719
yeah, yes, the skate team
is working on that. Plans for his

2470
02:47:26.879 --> 02:47:33.280
Zombies shooter. Uh the you know, never Soft is making Call of Duty

2471
02:47:33.319 --> 02:47:37.079
maps or whatever other call of duty
stuff. Uh. Yes, I would

2472
02:47:37.159 --> 02:47:41.120
love for someone to roll back in
and say, like, we are making

2473
02:47:41.559 --> 02:47:45.680
a super fucking serious, brand new
Tony Hawk game that is sort of like

2474
02:47:45.879 --> 02:47:50.360
the old Tony Hawk games, but
fucking way crazier because the technology is so

2475
02:47:50.440 --> 02:47:52.479
much more advanced. And we're not
talking about Nail the trick or Nail the

2476
02:47:52.600 --> 02:47:56.600
grab. I think everything. Just
take all the franchises. There's an easy

2477
02:47:56.639 --> 02:48:03.000
solution, okay, fanchise and fast
forward like five hundred years. Okay,

2478
02:48:03.120 --> 02:48:07.360
So it's Tony Hawk in like twenty
five fourteen. Yeah, but he's still

2479
02:48:07.399 --> 02:48:11.680
skateboarding. He's like like a video
game company needs to have like a equivalent

2480
02:48:11.760 --> 02:48:16.319
of like a summer event, like
Comic book style, where it's like it's

2481
02:48:16.399 --> 02:48:20.639
Tony Hawk twenty ninety nine and Call
of Duty twenty ninety nine. Like there's

2482

a giant robot. He's a metroplex on

2485

a skateboard. Yes, skating like
grinding on the Golden gate Bridge towards the

2486
