WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:11.160 Hell me a gummy bit. It's the Internet. You're busy. Let's do 2 00:00:11.199 --> 00:00:14.640 this for July eleventh, twenty twenty two. For the next hour or so, 3 00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:18.120 let me help you sort through the world gaming on Game Mess Mornings Live 4 00:00:18.199 --> 00:00:22.120 with me Jeff Grubb. Today, I didn't update this thing today. It's 5 00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.760 Monday, so we're gonna talk about some video game news. But first please 6 00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:29.600 join me and welcoming today's co host to Game Mess Mornings. It's Mike Manatty 7 00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:34.799 from games Beat. Everybody, who hooray Mike, how are you doing good? 8 00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:37.560 My nose started itching as study you started doing the countdown, and I 9 00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:39.920 was like, oh my god, I need to scratch my nose. It's 10 00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:43.840 the first thing people are gonna see. You know what it's it's it's always 11 00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:45.920 better to just point it out. Now it's all I could see, Mike, 12 00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:51.439 So everyone just stare at my schnausers. I need to touch it during 13 00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:55.520 this show. Mine started itching during the show the other day, and that 14 00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:57.679 then it's all I could think about. And I'm like, oh this this 15 00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:00.280 Mike Manatty feels all the time, yes to talk about because it's just like 16 00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:03.079 itchier all the time. I need Yeah, I need to get like I 17 00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:06.879 don't know, they need to get a device I get put on my nose. 18 00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.599 I don't look like a James Bondville and it just like gently massages that 19 00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:14.359 scratches it the entire time. Right, you want to look syphilitic. Absolutely, 20 00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:17.200 it's always a good look to go for him. Well, isn't that 21 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.319 a fancy college words for someone who never went to college of Jeff, I'm 22 00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:26.120 just like all I think about it's like Syphilist's all I ever think about, 23 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:29.640 Miche. I don't think about as simphilist. That sounds like that sounds like 24 00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:32.760 a song from the two thousands. Oh, I ever think about to sit 25 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:36.719 for this on YouTube? If you like, swear in the first like minute 26 00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:40.319 or two or two or whatever, it like will lower your ranking in the 27 00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:45.760 algorithm. Do you think syphilis counts, Jeff? How much lower? Quickly? 28 00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:51.920 Possibly go name this show after syphilis? Yes, absolutely, That way 29 00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:55.560 YouTube will know what to expect from it every every Monday. The cover arts 30 00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:59.040 would just be like a zoom in on the syphilis strain, yes, exactly. 31 00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:02.159 And then what's the what's the Chicago gangster's nose? Who had syphilis? 32 00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:06.200 And I had like a fake nose or whatever exactly. It'll be just like 33 00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:09.919 that, all right, before we get into the wow, Before we continue 34 00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:14.719 the mess, let's explain ourselves. It's already been. It's already been a 35 00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:16.240 mess. Each weekday, I, Jeff Greb, will help piece your gaming 36 00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:20.560 life back together. That includes breaking news, the catchup where we discuss the 37 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.400 biggest topics consuming the lives of gamers everywhere, and maybe even bring some of 38 00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:27.800 our own original reporting. For all these topics, I'll get the input of 39 00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:32.080 a bona fide expert or Mike and they will look smart.

Okay, we have a lot to 45 00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:55.120 get into, so let's start the Morning Mess with Hideo Kojima is considering legal 46 00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.520 action against news groups that accused him of killing former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. 47 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:07.879 So scragic event here where the former Prime Minister of Japan was literally assassinated. 48 00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:09.879 And this is something where I'm like, I was kind of happy attention 49 00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:13.080 to the news and then I saw this, I'm like, what is even 50 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.479 happening? And like and then I got to go back to my life and 51 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.840 I kind of caught I caught up on later. But when I was catching 52 00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:23.639 up on it later, Hideo Kojima was trending on Twitter because apparently some people 53 00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:30.240 misidentified him as the as the person responsible for the assassination. Uh, let's 54 00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:32.400 see. Let's go over to news assets. Take a look at this tweet 55 00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:38.680 from him. Well, this is from Kajima Productions. They say, Kajima 56 00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:43.560 Productions strongly condemns the spread of fake news and rumors that convey false information. 57 00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.840 We do not tolerate such a libel and will consider taking legal action in some 58 00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:53.680 cases. This is a wild situation. So basically what happened here is let's 59 00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:57.919 check out this tweet and a now deleted tweet. This comes from knocked on 60 00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:02.439 on Twitter. French far right politician Damian Rue accused the far left of murdering 61 00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:08.960 Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and use photos of game developer Hideo Kojima instead of 62 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:14.560 pictures of the current suspect, tetsu Yamagami. Uh these uh these tweets. 63 00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:18.720 Basically, it sounds like Damien Rue saw pictures posted as a joke on a 64 00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:23.600 forum or something, and he must have googled like who was responsible and maybe 65 00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:27.560 this came up and he took it as as you know, truth and then 66 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:31.399 posted on Twitter and then it spread really fast from there. This is a 67 00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:34.480 nightmare scenario, Mike. This is just it's it's it's kind of thing where 68 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:39.319 if it wasn't about the assassination of a human, it's almost like, Okay, 69 00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:43.720 this is another massive insane thing involving Kojima. This this weird thing. 70 00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.560 Of course it would happen to him, but it's just impossible to even joke 71 00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:48.720 about, right, Yeah, it's a it's bizarre. And then you know, 72 00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:53.480 this spread the kind of fake news more. A news station in Grease 73 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:57.959 picked up on it and like did a segment with these pictures of Kojima. 74 00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:00.639 Uh. Yeah, you know, if I was Sideo Kajima, I would 75 00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:05.360 I would definitely pursue legal action here. Yeah I wouldn't. Yeah, I 76 00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:10.519 mean, god, you know, making making a joke support taste about Hiokajima 77 00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.759 is usually our job jet but there is a line, There is a line. 78 00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:18.560 Absolutely, it's it's the kind of thing where I did it again vertical, 79 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:23.560 I believe in you. Yes, uh, it's it's the kind of 80 00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.560 thing where it's like you can't even you couldn't even make something like this up. 81 00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:30.920 It's when it happens in reality. It's almost so far beyond the kind 82 00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:33.079 of farce that I would normally associate with, like jokes I would make about 83 00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:36.560 Hideo Kajima that's just like, oh, what what is happening. I hope 84 00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:41.519 that they do end up doing, like taking some legal action against the people 85 00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.800 responsible for spreading this, because it's the kind of thing where it's gonna probably 86 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.959 follow Kojima for quite some time, where you're gonna google it and this kind 87 00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:53.560 of stuff is gonna pop up and it's gonna turn into like a not probably 88 00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:56.519 not a long term problem for him, but it's I mean, I wouldn't 89 00:05:56.600 --> 00:05:59.120 want to have to deal with this, and I'm sure Cojima doesn't want to 90 00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:01.920 either. Yes, it is an actual legal issue, and you know what 91 00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:05.040 this this damien rue When he apologize, it's like, oh, I know 92 00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:10.240 it naively took a joke for a mission. I couldn't even imagine that people 93 00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.079 would joke about something like this on Twitter. It's like, have you really 94 00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:16.360 been on Twitter? Have you actually looked around? Of course, people are 95 00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:20.600 gonna joke like you have to be the most careful right now. Yeah, 96 00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:26.839 And it's like on Twitter, it's very easy to just put out a tweet. 97 00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.560 Like a news station in Greece like kind of doing the same thing is 98 00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:33.600 even more mean. I guess it's not too surprising because you're you're rushing. 99 00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:40.199 It's a you see a politician posting it, maybe like it's easy to like 100 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:42.879 just make those mistakes. But the point of a newsroom is people are supposed 101 00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:46.000 to stop and fact check. And yeah, none of that, None of 102 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.800 that happened here. And it led to a situation where, you know, 103 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:54.800 if anyone being falsely accused is troublesome, but when it's someone who has some 104 00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:58.240 notoriety, it's the kind of thing where like, yeah that they're probably gonna 105 00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:00.600 suit you. We're probably gonna have to deal with some consequences here and justly 106 00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:04.680 so. Now I don't know what the like libel laws are like in Greece, 107 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:10.720 I wonder if it like where like if Kajima were to sue them for 108 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:12.959 that, like where he would like sue them at Would he sue him in 109 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:15.560 Greece or would you have to like sue him like in Japan or something like 110 00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.959 that. But I think even just the threat is like that he's making here 111 00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:24.279 as saying like hey, I will, there should be consequences. There could 112 00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:27.680 potentially be enough to make the accompany you that you know that was just responsible 113 00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.560 for these this this news report to rethink how they do things and hopefully not 114 00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.399 make mistakes like this again in the future. Probably not. They're probably going 115 00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:36.480 to continue want to be faster, faster, faster. What's we saw a 116 00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:41.360 thing on Twitter? Look, here's pictures of the Killer faster faster exactly. 117 00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.399 Uh. We will will stay with this story. If any anything happens with 118 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.399 Kojima and filing lawsuit, will update you here on Game Morning mess Uh Game 119 00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:54.000 mess Mornings. Sorry. Uh until then, though, this is just it's 120 00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:57.319 just a wild thing that happened. It's unbelievable and and we'll move on. 121 00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:03.439 Uh. Nintendo is updating its patent that aims to upscale low res images via 122 00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:09.160 machine learning. This comes from Rawbat Cowboy at Go Nintendo U. Nintendo has 123 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.480 had previously filed a patent for how to take low res images and upres them 124 00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:18.680 using machine learning. Similar it sounds a lot like DLSS, But they filed 125 00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:24.240 this back in twenty twenty and now they have a they've updated it recently, 126 00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:28.519 which is like adding fuel to the fire that they might be doing something with 127 00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:31.440 this technology pretty soon. Uh see, let's check out the patent here. 128 00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:39.039 Uh it's like they've been slowly updating this patent for a couple of years now. 129 00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:43.639 This most recent update was on July fifth, and the patent like, 130 00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:46.320 I'll just read from the abstract here. This is a computer system is provided 131 00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:50.960 for converting images through use of a trained neural network. A source image is 132 00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:56.639 divided into blocks and context data is added to each pixel block. The context 133 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:01.120 blocks are split into channels, and each channel from the same context block is 134 00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:05.480 added to the same activation matrix. The action matrix is then executed against a 135 00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:11.039 trained neural network to produce a changed activation matrix. A changed at activation matrix 136 00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:15.440 is then used to generate a converted image. That's a lot of work for 137 00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:18.360 Tron and his friends and side. Yes, exactly, yes, Jeff in 138 00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:22.399 there inside the tron machine is doing a lot of hard work. Basically what 139 00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:28.120 this is, it's just saying that they can add sort of trained neural network 140 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:33.600 models to a GPU and then when they are running a game on that GPU, 141 00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:37.759 the GPU can use that that that that training to take the image, 142 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:41.000 understand what it is, understand what it would be if it was if it 143 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:46.559 was higher resolution, add that using these matrices, and then output that image. 144 00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.799 And I mean it is very similar to what the LSS is, which 145 00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:52.159 makes me wonder like what is the difference between this patent and nvidious patent for 146 00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.480 DLSS. I don't know. I'm not an expert on that, but you 147 00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:01.320 know, the bigger story here is is Nintendo going to actively use this stuff? 148 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:05.360 We've heard reports that like Nintendo is going to have some DLSS model, 149 00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:09.960 whether that's a switch pro or switch too. Is this the kind of thing 150 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:13.559 that you expect to be like the key mark like marketing feature of the next 151 00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.000 switch sort of no matter what it is. Yeah, I guess I wonder 152 00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:20.559 like what's the buzzword for it? Right? Because DLSS if I can't remember, 153 00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.000 those are the letters. That's not as that's not as publicly known as 154 00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:26.679 some of these other things. Right, Like we me and you have like 155 00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:30.879 lat before about the idea of a four K switch because it's unnecessary, but 156 00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:33.679 at least the public knows what four K is, right, right, They 157 00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.159 almost wouldn't need to like invent a word for it again, like blast processing 158 00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:41.000 or mode seven or whatever to actually get people to understand what this is doing. 159 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:43.600 Yeah, I mean, wouldn't be surprised if they go with like switch 160 00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:48.879 four K something like that. Yeah, like matrix, they should just they 161 00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:52.120 should just jump onto this action matrix. Action should be what's called yeah, 162 00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:56.919 switch action matrix. I like it. What Like whether or not this stuff 163 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.600 is exactly what Nintendo ends up using. They file patents like this all the 164 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:07.120 time. It's very likely that they'll probably just end up using DLSS since in 165 00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:11.799 video is there is their key hardware partner. They've been they've been partnered with 166 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:13.960 them four years now, and they sat at the time when they first started 167 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.480 their deal together that they were going to have a deal for twenty years into 168 00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:22.200 the future. So obviously they're going to continue working together on the next system 169 00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:28.000 as well. That's no surprise dal DLSS and requires a little bit more power 170 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.000 though, So I wonder if like they are like looking at ways of doing 171 00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:35.360 that without having to fully upgrade. Uh, like, maybe this is a 172 00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.759 solution for the original switch if we do get a Switch Pro, and if 173 00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:43.840 that switch Pro is big, like has DLSS, like, maybe like, 174 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.679 well, we can add this stuff to our original hardware and maybe that'll be 175 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:52.240 a way of sort of letting the old switch last longer. Now, I'm 176 00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:54.600 not super interested in that. We ran a pull on the show last week 177 00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.000 asking people like how they're feeling about like wanting to start a new generation from 178 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:03.159 Nintendo or elongating it with the Switch Pro. Most people want to start a 179 00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:07.200 new generation with Switch too, But I'm like, who knows what Nintendo's gonna 180 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.000 end up deciding, right right exactly, because they're gonna you know, the 181 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.240 Switch is but one of the most popular systems ever. That's a lot of 182 00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.480 people who have one. It's always a scary thing starting a new generation. 183 00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.440 I mean, they saw the giant issue they had going from the Wii to 184 00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:22.960 the Wii U. So even though it seems like, of course the next 185 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.039 system is going to be a hit, they are probably kind of terrified about 186 00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:30.399 right now. And You're right, they're probably finding ways to maybe keep all 187 00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:33.399 those people who own switches buying new games again. Right. They almost wanted 188 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.320 like the old days, back when they were able to release games for the 189 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.279 nes in like nineteen ninety two and nineteen ninety three, well after the Super 190 00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:43.519 Nintendo already came out. But the market is just so different now. You 191 00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:48.159 have to you have to kind of find some ways to to to to put 192 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:50.960 that to my geiver your old system, I guess, And maybe that's what 193 00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:54.519 this is. Yeah, maybe you know that's just speculation, but it's it's 194 00:12:54.519 --> 00:12:58.039 the kind of thing where why is Nintendo doing the separate from Nvidia. I 195 00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:01.360 mean, obviously they might be researching it and they figured something out and they 196 00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:05.840 were able to patent it, So maybe as simple as that, but maybe 197 00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:11.600 there are other explanations. It's hard to say. I do still think that 198 00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.480 we will get some sort of word from Nintendo about like what their plans are 199 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.039 for the future here in the relatively near future, whether or not that's a 200 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.399 switch pro or switch to, or if it's just them saying to investors, 201 00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:26.720 hey, we've begun, really we've begun like to transition, and that transition 202 00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:30.519 is going to take years, but we've begun it. I think they will 203 00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.720 begin having those conversations here publicly pretty soon, and maybe that gives us some 204 00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:37.639 more insight into exactly what is happening here. I mean, the bay problem 205 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:41.960 with the old switch is performance. It's frame rate anyways, right, so 206 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:43.080 I don't know how much this is going to help. Well, we have 207 00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.120 a crisper image at fifteen frames per second, now, great, right, 208 00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:50.960 exactly. Yeah, it's a lot of this patent talks about five fortyp and 209 00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:56.000 going to ten ADP, so that's maybe again I might be reading into this. 210 00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:00.440 This stuff is placeholder for a patent a lot of the time, but 211 00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:01.639 for me, that's like, oh, well, maybe you run out on 212 00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:07.559 the original switches forty and then you can upgrade it to ten ADP and still 213 00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:09.159 keep like, you know, sixty frames per second that you get from running 214 00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:13.240 at five fortyp. But I don't know, like I don't even know if 215 00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:16.159 this stuff would be able to run on that original switch hardware. It's it's 216 00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:18.600 it's hard to say. Like, for example, DLSS needs just a touch 217 00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:22.919 more power, like I was saying earlier than what the switch offers, so 218 00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.200 they would need a new basically a new chip to be able to run DLSS 219 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:30.320 on a new switch, it wouldn't be able to just like backpork DLSS to 220 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:35.960 what the switch currently has, so maybe it makes some sense. Assassin's Creed 221 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.840 Liberation Steam page suggests it will soon be unplayable even by owners. This comes 222 00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:46.000 from Chris Scullion at BGC. Assassin's Creed Liberation HD will no longer be playable 223 00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:50.480 on PC as of September first, according to its Steam listing, the game 224 00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:52.799 has already been removed from sale, and according to a message on its Steam 225 00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:56.960 page, it seems players will no longer be able to even boot the game 226 00:14:56.000 --> 00:15:01.440 from September onwards at the request of the publisher. This quote from the Steam 227 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:05.159 page, Assassin's Creed Deliberation HD is no longer available for Steam on for sale 228 00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.559 on Steam. Please note this title will not be accessible following September one, 229 00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:15.919 twenty twenty two. Ubisoft gave VGC the following statement regarding its recent run of 230 00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:20.360 decommissioned games. We don't take the decision to retire services for older Ubisoft games 231 00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:24.799 lightly, and our teams are currently assessing all available options for players who will 232 00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:31.320 be impacted when these games online services are decommissioned on September one, twenty twenty 233 00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:35.120 two. We are also working with our partners to update this information across all 234 00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:39.039 storefronts so players will be fully informed about the removal of online services at the 235 00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.039 point of purchase, as well as via our support article where we shared the 236 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:48.159 news. Right, but like, this isn't just about the like they said 237 00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:50.159 before that they were going to get rid of the online service for Liberty Wood 238 00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:54.799 Cares whatever. Why are you going to stop selling the game and making it 239 00:15:54.279 --> 00:16:00.159 inaccessible through that standalone version. Now there is a version of Assassins Creed three 240 00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:03.440 that does just come with it, but like you know, you're gonna have 241 00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:07.320 to buy it again. And apparently Liberation was even on sale during the Steam 242 00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:12.159 Summer Sale. Like this version that's going to go away. Uh, this 243 00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:15.759 seems bonkers, right, It's one thing to stop selling a game on Steam, 244 00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:19.559 to make it so that you can't access it anymore. And this is 245 00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:22.000 from this is from one of the first companies that want that wanted to talk 246 00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.159 about NFTs too, Jeff. They're they're the one's showing us how completely immaterial 247 00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:32.720 digital ownership can be. Incredible. It's it's kind of you're right, it's 248 00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:37.600 bonkers. I mean there must be some online portion that costs the whole game 249 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.519 to break. That's my only guests here. Can't be because then it's still 250 00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:45.559 playable on the Assassin's Creed three version, right, right, Look, if 251 00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:48.480 it's that bad and you have to do it, then just give everybody who 252 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:51.559 owns that access to that Assassin Creed three version, right, I mean I 253 00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:55.879 can either do that or take that version and extract it from Assassin's Creed three 254 00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:57.759 and make that the like, just get people that version of the game. 255 00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:02.840 Whatever, but do some work here and don't do this. Don't take a 256 00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:07.279 game that people bought and make it inaccessible. That's like crossing a line. 257 00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:11.640 I think that publishers and like place like Valve, they've known that this is 258 00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:15.559 a red line for a very long time, and now this feels to me 259 00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:19.759 like they're getting complacent. They're like people will just at this point will understand 260 00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:23.559 that sometimes this is gonna happen. And I think that what's gonna happen here, 261 00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:26.559 so there's probably gonna be sort of some outrage and you'd be soft, 262 00:17:26.559 --> 00:17:30.440 will have to figure something out here, which is the right thing, the 263 00:17:30.519 --> 00:17:33.640 right way to handle this, unfortunately, is kind of yell at you be 264 00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:38.079 soft a little bit because this is I'm I've gone all digital, and whenever 265 00:17:38.119 --> 00:17:41.119 this stuff like this happens, people are like, well, this is why 266 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:45.519 you buy your game's physical and I'm okay, I get that, but you 267 00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:48.440 know, physical things degrade as well. Physical things don't last forever either. 268 00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:53.440 But it's not like this. It's not like suddenly one day the publisher gets 269 00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:56.880 to decide to pull the plug on it. Right, so if you take 270 00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:00.200 care of your things, they will last for a very long time. This 271 00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:03.640 is this is like, this feels like having the rug pulled out from underneath 272 00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:07.680 you in a way that, even when it's a small off to the side 273 00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:11.440 Assassin's Creed game, it's unacceptable. Yeah, it is Tom Payne and Chatt 274 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:15.599 saying that apparently the one with three is the ones that's shutting down. I've 275 00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.000 seen people say separate things. I think everyone I don't know it's excusing. 276 00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.599 I don't know. Yeah, exactly, I don't understand. I think a 277 00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:23.839 lot of people to understand. Maybe even Ubisoft doesn't understand what's going on here. 278 00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:27.000 But it is just a bizarre move to completely delist a game. I 279 00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:32.400 mean, even when Fall guys left Steam, right, and it did so 280 00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:36.759 for a reasonably, we understood the Epic Games bought that studio, so it's 281 00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:40.240 going to the Epic Game Store. I can still run Fall games on my 282 00:18:40.279 --> 00:18:42.759 Steam. They didn't make it, so it just doesn't work anymore. Right. 283 00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:49.200 It's the kind of thing where if you don't sort of stamp this out 284 00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:52.839 immediately when it happens. But I mean, in a certain point, it's 285 00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:56.519 like Valve should step in here and do something because this hurts the reputation of 286 00:18:56.599 --> 00:19:02.680 Steam that they're not happy. Yeah, you hope that like enough people recognize 287 00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:07.799 that the success, like the digital games went from something that very few people 288 00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.920 and it like engaged with to being like the dominant form of purchasing games. 289 00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:15.440 And now that's what it feels like. They've like, Okay, there's so 290 00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:18.680 much momentum behind it, we could sort of do whatever. Uh. I 291 00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:21.359 still think there's like a chance that, you know, if they don't deal 292 00:19:21.359 --> 00:19:23.720 with the situation, it could backfire in their faces, and so hopefully they 293 00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:29.119 do something about it. Respawn is recruiting for a single player, first person 294 00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:33.640 shooter game set in the Apex Legends universe. This by Andy Robinson at VGC. 295 00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:37.039 How do you feel about the words the Apex Legends universe, Jeff, 296 00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:42.440 I feel like it's very specifically not the Titan Fall universe. That's the same 297 00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:47.799 thing. I guess it was Achchuch much more popular. Yes, exactly. 298 00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:52.960 As spotted by dex Sertos, several job listings for Responds Apex Universe first person 299 00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:57.559 shooter incubation project have appeared, describing the in development game as a brand new 300 00:19:57.880 --> 00:20:03.480 Respawn single player adventure. This new single player title is a developer's dream. 301 00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:07.839 This is a quote from the job listing. Excuse me, uh, It's 302 00:20:07.880 --> 00:20:11.319 a developer's dream playground with the freedom to innovate made possible by the unique universe 303 00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:15.640 it inhabits. One job ad reads. It's unclear if the project is related 304 00:20:15.680 --> 00:20:19.599 to the unannounced single player project. Respond first confirmed when it was working on 305 00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:22.960 that it was working on last year. According to a games Beat report earlier 306 00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:26.799 this year, that title is a first person shooter being built around the guiding 307 00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:32.240 principles of mobility and style. But it isn't a Titan False sequel. That 308 00:20:32.359 --> 00:20:33.720 was your report, wasn't it that? My report? To work with me? 309 00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:40.720 Yes, So let's let's stop here and just confirm this is that game. 310 00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:45.000 This is that single player game that Respawn was working on. They they've 311 00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:48.519 begun basically saying it's in the Apex Legends universe as part of that thing we've 312 00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:53.000 seen happen a lot over the last year where developers sort of come out and 313 00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:56.839 confirm the game they're working on a little bit more firmly as part of like 314 00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:02.079 hoping to recruit people come work on the game, right, so that this 315 00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:03.599 is part of that. Like, they weren't gonna they weren't ever gonna say 316 00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:06.960 it was in the Apex Legends universe. They were gonna wait until they had 317 00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:10.480 more to show. But they want to recruit people, and they want people 318 00:21:10.640 --> 00:21:15.440 who are excited to work on the Apex Legends games. I am still really 319 00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:18.839 excited about this, even though it very specifically is not going to be titan 320 00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:22.839 Fall three. It's yeah, but it's even weirder that it's not a Taitall 321 00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:27.240 sequel when it takes place in the same universe as the titan Fall games. 322 00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:30.960 Dude, now, right, so yes, like, how is it a 323 00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:33.319 I mean, it's it's not like I don't want people to get any sort 324 00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.519 of mixture in that. I've been told so explicitly this is not going to 325 00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:41.119 be titan Fall three. What do you mean by that? Is You're not 326 00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:44.839 going to be in giant robots in this game. I'm guessing it's gonna be 327 00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:47.960 like it's gonna take stuff from Apex Legends. It's not gonna be worried about 328 00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:52.079 like trying to follow up the lineage of what titan Fall was. You know, 329 00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:56.720 I'm still really excited about this. I think Respond is one of my 330 00:21:56.759 --> 00:22:00.160 favorite developers for you know, since they started. This is the kind of 331 00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.680 thing where it's like, oh, they get to just experiment and the first 332 00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:07.839 person shooter single player game space. Like I wasn't expecting that. Like once 333 00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:11.000 I started hearing about this game up, it was like immediately exciting, but 334 00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:12.759 having it be like, oh, they're gonna be able to make a single 335 00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:17.720 player game because Apex Legends is so popular makes so much money, Well that's 336 00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:19.119 awesome, And they call it an incubation project. This is the kind of 337 00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:22.440 way that this is the way that Respond makes games. They're just prototyping for 338 00:22:22.519 --> 00:22:26.119 years trying to figure out how to make it as fun as possible. At 339 00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:30.839 its heart, it's still gonna it's gonna have that same spirit as a titan 340 00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.960 Fall, even if it's not gonna be called titan Fall and and really it 341 00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:37.839 won't be titan Fall at all. So I'm really excited about this. It's 342 00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:41.599 gonna be called the Apex Legends, yes, the yesh, it'll just be 343 00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:45.519 called not tighten Fall ship heads. So yeah, yeah, stop yelling, 344 00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:49.440 yeah, stop out, You're not getting one of those. Uh. I 345 00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:52.559 mean, I don't know, people like abs beast As again ea, just 346 00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:56.480 leaving money on the table. I don't know, like a actually yeah yeah, 347 00:22:56.559 --> 00:22:59.839 Like I can criticize them a lot about how I'd rather have titan Fall 348 00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:03.279 three. This might actually be the much smarter financial move again, a tex 349 00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:07.599 Legends has made them probably much much, much, much much more money than 350 00:23:07.759 --> 00:23:12.720 titan Fall once you combined. Ever, did I think that's right? Uh? 351 00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:17.400 And mobility and style of those are things I think the studio is really 352 00:23:17.400 --> 00:23:19.400 good at. I would be very excited to see them express that in a 353 00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:22.400 single player game built new I mean, I guess. I guess The bright 354 00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:26.240 side is when I actually think about my favorite moments from titan Fall two, 355 00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:30.559 not that many of them involved being inside the Giant robot, right. I 356 00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:33.599 really liked my relationship with what's what's his name be two or something like that 357 00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:38.480 and Optimus Prime, yes exactly, yes, uh, And I like when 358 00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.519 he threw me. That was awesome. That was one of the best Game 359 00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:45.880 of moments ever. And look, there's times where it's like like the robot 360 00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:48.960 is like running beside you and doing something while you're shooting, and then when 361 00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:52.640 you come back together like that to us feel like a climactic moment. But 362 00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:56.880 you're right, the best parts of that game are when you're running around and 363 00:23:56.920 --> 00:24:00.440 you feel like a first person Jedi or whatever and you're done. Those kind 364 00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:03.680 of mirrors edgy but with guns BT, thank you, thank you, chat 365 00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:07.960 BT. Yes, remember his name, Jeff? Why should I love him? 366 00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:10.720 I should get some BT you love so much? You don't know his 367 00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:11.960 name. Listen, Mike, I can't remember your name half the time, 368 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:17.039 and I, well, I don't love so let's be clear. Xbox Series 369 00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:22.279 is all can't remember my god damn u. Xbox Series has already sold more 370 00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:27.240 than double Xbox One in Japan. Data published by Famitsu indicates that as of 371 00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:32.759 July third, Xbox Series X and S have sold some two hundred and sixty 372 00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:37.759 uh and five hundred four thousand units, or yes, two hundred and sixty, 373 00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:41.000 five hundred and four thousand units. Space in here that it's messing you 374 00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:44.119 up, it is messing me up. Yes, basically two hundred and sixty 375 00:24:44.160 --> 00:24:48.960 thousand units and it's a that's according to the same source. Microsoft's previous Xbox 376 00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:52.960 one console sold around one hundred and fourteen thousand units, around one hundred and 377 00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:57.000 fifteen thousand units and it's lifetime, so already double that for the Xbox series 378 00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:03.799 X sus pretty impressive. We're only what two years about nearly two full years 379 00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:10.519 into this into this generation. Now it's still it's still not the best selling 380 00:25:10.640 --> 00:25:12.880 Xbox ever in Japan, that is the Xbox three sixty with one point six 381 00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:17.880 million units sold over its lifetime. It seems like this is probably gonna just 382 00:25:17.960 --> 00:25:21.359 get to their right, right, And they did a lot of work to 383 00:25:21.400 --> 00:25:23.680 get the Xbox ree sixty to sell that much in Japan, right, that's 384 00:25:23.680 --> 00:25:27.880 true. Of those miss Walker deals, they had Blue Dragon Lost Odyssey, 385 00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:30.519 they had a Tales game, They got a lot of JRPGs on there. 386 00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:36.000 They make sure I found Fantasy. Their team was cross platform things like that 387 00:25:36.079 --> 00:25:37.920 and this. You know, they seem like they're on that road already without 388 00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:41.799 having to do any of that work. And again, like these days, 389 00:25:41.799 --> 00:25:45.400 we know that the Japanese market for console gaming isn't nearly as important as it 390 00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:52.039 once was. Yes, I think that Microsoft probably won't do exactly the same 391 00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:57.480 strategy because Japan in general cares less about console gaming, and you know, 392 00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:02.400 and it's probably a little bit more toficult to make those deals because though a 393 00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:06.319 lot of those developers move on to work on mobile or whatever or already have 394 00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:11.079 existing deals with companies like Sony. So Microsoft making a bunch of JRPGs to 395 00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:15.200 appeal to that audience, it's probably probably wouldn't work as well anyhow. And 396 00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:18.200 this it seems like the system doesn't super duper need it. This is like 397 00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:22.079 way better than I would have expected for the Xbox series X and S, 398 00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:26.119 especially after like the one and even the PlayStation four was like sort of not 399 00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:30.559 struggling but not selling nearly as fast there as it was everywhere else in the 400 00:26:30.559 --> 00:26:34.519 world. So you know, this is probably just it's like just a nice 401 00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:40.559 thing for Xbox. Now it's outsold the PlayStation five like a couple of times 402 00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:44.519 in Japan has nothing to do with demand. It's all about supply, and 403 00:26:44.839 --> 00:26:48.480 it continues to be the case. So yeah, Returnal Steam listing continues to 404 00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:53.039 get updates ahead of a possible reveal. The Steam database entry for what is 405 00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:59.400 almost certainly Returnal continues to receive regular updates as an eventual reveal appears to be 406 00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.799 all but guaranteed. In May, Steam dB log the presence of a new 407 00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:07.759 product in the database, which goes by the codename Oregon. While it wasn't 408 00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:11.759 immediately clear what the game is, certain localization strings in the game's listing make 409 00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:15.440 it clear that it's a PC port of Returnal. Now. The site's history 410 00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:18.640 page shows that the end development game continues to get new builds on a daily 411 00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:22.559 basis. Uh. Some of those those localizations strings, by the way, 412 00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:30.559 are Atropos and Tower of Sisyphus in Helios. Yes, Tower of Syphilis in 413 00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:36.839 Helios, and Returning, making the game's identity pretty clear. So just get 414 00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:41.880 yourself some antibiotics that will help clear that all up. Yes, So yeah, 415 00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.359 I think that Returnal is going to come to probably PC before the end 416 00:27:45.359 --> 00:27:51.599 of this year. You know, think back to Sony saying they were gonna 417 00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:56.480 have like make like three hundred million dollars in revenue on PC this fiscal year, 418 00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:59.279 and that was like more than double what they made in the previous years. 419 00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:02.160 Obviously a lot. That's a lot. That's gonna come down to them 420 00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:06.200 finally launching on Charted and there's a few other things. Yes, eventually whenever 421 00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:10.119 that happens, and then they're probably gonna launch some of their free to play 422 00:28:10.200 --> 00:28:15.519 games like simultaneously on on PC that you know, those will make a big 423 00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:18.599 dent. But they're probably gonna put a lot of PS five games onto PC 424 00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:22.519 and pretty quickly. Here when do you think that like really starts happening? 425 00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:29.839 Like Returnal is a PlayStation five exclusive, so that'd be like that'd be pretty 426 00:28:29.920 --> 00:28:33.880 quick. You know, their past, like Cadence was about three years or 427 00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:37.079 more before moving the game from PlayStation to PC. If it happens before like 428 00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:42.240 let's say November U, that'll be what like two years the year and a 429 00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:45.200 half, Yeah, year and a half for Returnals, So that's pretty quick. 430 00:28:45.759 --> 00:28:49.039 That's pretty quick, but also feels plenty of time. Right it's you 431 00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:53.119 think everybody who wanted to get Returnal on a PlayStation five, like you're sure 432 00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:56.119 of course there's gonna people who get playsation five still and are maybe gonna get 433 00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:59.680 it there, right, but there aren't gonna be a ton of people who 434 00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:02.559 are getting it on PC, and now because of that, they're never buying 435 00:29:02.599 --> 00:29:06.119 it on PlayStation five or never have. Right, Yes, I think time. 436 00:29:06.200 --> 00:29:07.680 I think it's I think we can't start moving a little bit faster on 437 00:29:07.680 --> 00:29:11.759 this stuff, and returnal absolutely seems prime for it. And I don't want 438 00:29:11.799 --> 00:29:15.119 to say smaller game, because I know it's a full price game and all 439 00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:18.920 that stuff, But for something of this scale, why not get it over 440 00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:22.079 to PC a little bit faster? Jeff, I do think it's messed up 441 00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:26.680 that you can cod name a video game Oregon, as if that isn't just 442 00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:30.880 completely taken already in the video game space, Like like what what zoomers decided 443 00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:36.119 that they can just codename this Oregon as if? As if real gamers like 444 00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:40.039 us did it grow up playing Oregon Trail in computer class. You're right, 445 00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:44.079 they're great, right, Like how dare this I'm trying to imagine is there 446 00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:48.559 any lineage they're thinking there? Like this game is like the spiritual successor to 447 00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:52.799 Oregon Trail, and you know, there'sy at some points. Oregon Trail is 448 00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:53.680 kind of like a rogue light, right, like, because you go as 449 00:29:53.680 --> 00:29:57.200 far as you can, have to start over. Now, you're really messing 450 00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:06.680 with me on Trail a rogue show. Yeah, I be liked Oregon Trail 451 00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:08.720 to the one that was like a seedy rom game and it had like some 452 00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:17.759 FMV and okay, chet, Chet's mad at how we're pronouncing Oregon so Oregon 453 00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:27.880 like like Oregon the ogregation of Polygone Regan Trail Trail. You gotta pack up 454 00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:32.759 the kids. Why might are they Italian? They might be Italian because we 455 00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:37.079 gotta go to an orton Oregon on the trail. I think I felt like 456 00:30:37.119 --> 00:30:42.200 I said it pretty good the first time Oregon Oregon, Oregon It's lost. 457 00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:48.319 I felt went pretty good about the time I said it was very mean to 458 00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:52.960 us. I agree with that. Yeah, come on, guys, it's 459 00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:56.200 easy for you because you don't even have to pronounce it dance correcting us. 460 00:30:56.319 --> 00:31:00.839 Yeah, I can't, jesus excuse me, Ray, All right, let's 461 00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:06.039 get to the catch up. Cap On held Capcom held an Exo Primal network 462 00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:08.680 test, so I guess you could see gameplay of that. Now if you 463 00:31:08.759 --> 00:31:11.640 really want to. I'm gonna click over to that for us real quick. 464 00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:15.599 Let's uh, I don't know. It looks I don't know. It looks 465 00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:21.000 like one of those MANI online shooters. It looks like man yeah, way 466 00:31:21.039 --> 00:31:25.920 too way too much like Neon stuff. The lady's just all over the place. 467 00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:29.720 There's yeah this, I mean, oh look it's Reinhardt. Guy's a 468 00:31:29.759 --> 00:31:32.960 Reinhardt shield. That's funny, and I mean it does take on my fancy 469 00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:36.519 a bit that it looks like a generic online shooter. And then there's just 470 00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:41.079 a tri Serra tops funny that works a little bit. And there's a lot 471 00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:44.480 of dinosaurs there that's pretty cool. But you know, there's a character playing 472 00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:47.960 as the healer and obviously someone playing as a tank and stuff like that, 473 00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:52.240 Like they're like Reinhart literally ran literally a Reinhart. So it just is is 474 00:31:52.279 --> 00:31:56.759 one of those that doesn't mean it can't be good. It's just I'm just 475 00:31:56.799 --> 00:32:00.880 having a hard time getting super excited about it. Yeah shooting, try, 476 00:32:00.880 --> 00:32:04.640 okay try. Saratops are just inherently cool, so that is working for me. 477 00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:07.799 I guess I'm more excited for this than hyenas. Yes, I suppose 478 00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:10.599 so but it does like like, I know, I bet you could show 479 00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:13.759 me if you took out the dinosaurs. I bet you can show me both, 480 00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:16.000 and I wouldn't be able to guess which swich. I guess. Maybe 481 00:32:16.039 --> 00:32:20.160 that's why they were like, we've got to throw dinosaurs into this generic aas 482 00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:22.680 looter shooter thing we came up with. We gotta do something we can't just 483 00:32:22.720 --> 00:32:28.039 do. We can't just do aliens or robots again in this we're screwed. 484 00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:30.319 Uh, And like we have what can we have a lot of? But 485 00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:32.359 yeah, it's like, well, yeah, there's like a couple of things. 486 00:32:32.359 --> 00:32:35.359 You can have a lot of Nazis, a lot of zombies, a 487 00:32:35.400 --> 00:32:37.640 lot of thought ants. And they were like, ship that's already a game 488 00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:42.960 site. Yeah yeah, although, hey, just do another an online version 489 00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:45.720 of Earth Defense Force. I'd buy play that. It muld be fun. 490 00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:46.920 I'm gonna leave this on while we talked about this.

Iowa has previously said the new map will have an intriguing narrative 498 00:33:20.799 --> 00:33:22.759 for hit Man fans, as it takes place before the events of hit Man 499 00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:28.599 three and fills in a few gaps from the World of Assassination storyline. So, 500 00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:32.400 Mike, I spent much of my life trying to convince you to finally 501 00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:36.279 play hit Man, and you had in the last couple of years, and 502 00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:38.559 this is like, are you at a point where I like hearing about a 503 00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:42.839 new map gets you excited to get back to hit Man. Absolutely, I'm 504 00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:46.039 super stucked about this. I mean, the two DC maps after hit Man 505 00:33:46.079 --> 00:33:50.359 two are some of the best maps in the trilogy. Right that New York 506 00:33:50.400 --> 00:33:55.079 bake Yes said that island resorts are incredible, So yeah, it seems like 507 00:33:55.119 --> 00:34:00.720 they're able to get even more creative than usual sometimes with with these This definitely 508 00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:02.200 seems like it has some potential. I bet at spot we get to go 509 00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:07.000 on a treasure hunt. Right, come exactly right island, we have to 510 00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:08.920 be able to go at a treasure hunt. So it also seems like this 511 00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:14.440 is a great like sandbox for them literally to two prototype ideas that they could 512 00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:17.639 use in James Bond and whatever else they're working on. Uh like, hey, 513 00:34:17.719 --> 00:34:21.320 yeah, come up with some ideas. Experiment with him here. It's 514 00:34:21.559 --> 00:34:23.719 a free DLC, Like we can only complain so much. Uh Like, 515 00:34:23.800 --> 00:34:27.199 I hope it's like just a really solid hit Man map, but I also 516 00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:30.920 hope it continues to be them figuring out the their future, which is like 517 00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:32.719 a big part of a Hitman three felt like, and it really works for 518 00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:36.400 me. People saying play this on the site, I'm app I'm gonna be 519 00:34:36.440 --> 00:34:38.400 playing Hitman a lot on the site because like, whenever there's not something new 520 00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:42.360 tail made, do they mean the trailer right now or do they mean play 521 00:34:42.400 --> 00:34:44.639 the game on thee that they want us to play that they want us to 522 00:34:44.639 --> 00:34:49.039 play? Yes, I will. I mean I was I almost considered just 523 00:34:49.039 --> 00:34:53.079 playing hit Man on UPF last week, so yeah, I mean, like 524 00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:55.559 I love doing escalation missions, so maybe we'll figure out some stuff to do 525 00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:59.039 with that problem now, Jeff is that I got my Steam deck, and 526 00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:02.920 part of me like wants to just play this game on my Steam de Yeah, 527 00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:07.280 but that's like a big because in my mind, I can't just have 528 00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:09.599 one. I had to have Hitman three and those two passes that give you 529 00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:13.599 all the old maps, and that's like together, probably a two hundred dollar 530 00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:16.480 purchase or something, right, I think, I mean no, because I 531 00:35:16.480 --> 00:35:19.480 think if you get hit Man, I don't know, it's not that I 532 00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:23.000 don't think it's not that expensive, but but fair enough. Also hit me 533 00:35:23.079 --> 00:35:27.039 up. I'll just I should put you on my my family account on Steam 534 00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:30.360 because yeah, well maybe maybe we'll Yeah, I just look like, but 535 00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:34.159 look, I'm very excited for this. Hitman's great. Just give me more 536 00:35:34.239 --> 00:35:37.400 levels. I wish that they Part of me almost wishes that original episodic model 537 00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:40.639 worked out from Hitman one. We just kept getting new levels like every two 538 00:35:40.679 --> 00:35:45.119 months or every few months or so. But this will do fine, well, 539 00:35:45.159 --> 00:35:49.000 I mean they this is the kind of thing where they didn't mention any 540 00:35:49.239 --> 00:35:52.599 new maps are coming when they first started talking about the roadmap for Hitman three, 541 00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:55.000 and it did so well that they just I think they felt like they 542 00:35:55.039 --> 00:35:59.239 had to, which to me, is just a win win when where it's 543 00:35:59.239 --> 00:36:01.159 like, Okay, the game selling so well, and then that means we're 544 00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:04.800 gonna get new stuff. So obviously they feel good about the game. I 545 00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:07.639 feel good about the game. I love Hitman three, So this is this 546 00:36:07.719 --> 00:36:12.079 is just fantastic stuff for me, all right, Mike, there was some 547 00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:15.159 hub people are continue to be mad about seventy dollars games, and then other 548 00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:20.440 people are mad that people continue to be mad about seventy dollars games. The 549 00:36:20.440 --> 00:36:22.360 most common thing I see now is people are like, you don't have to 550 00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:25.599 pay seventy dollars if you don't want to quit talking about this. And I've 551 00:36:25.599 --> 00:36:30.599 seen that like tweet basically like four times over the weekend. I guess I 552 00:36:30.639 --> 00:36:32.159 wanted to just check in with you, Mike. How are you feeling about 553 00:36:32.159 --> 00:36:37.159 the jump to seventy now that we're so far into the generation. I don't 554 00:36:37.159 --> 00:36:39.719 know. I guess I have. I have some acceptance of it at this 555 00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:43.840 point, right, I mean I still, I mean I get it if 556 00:36:43.840 --> 00:36:46.400 people think it's it is expensive and it's a jump, especially now because you 557 00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:50.800 know, everyone's hurting a little bit right the economy, music and the dumps 558 00:36:50.840 --> 00:36:52.480 a bit sure, but you know, there's there's a lot of points that 559 00:36:52.519 --> 00:36:55.440 people have repeated Jeff, how we had sixty dollars games for a very long 560 00:36:55.480 --> 00:37:00.320 time, a jump was going to happen. I think there are I think 561 00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:04.159 instances that make it feel bad, like Last of Us Part one, uh 562 00:37:04.639 --> 00:37:09.199 being seventy dollars. The original wasn't a psycho physical version. Second, who's 563 00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:14.679 getting a physical version and that's gonna be seventy dollars that's from last run, 564 00:37:14.840 --> 00:37:17.599 So it's like made for collectors. So it's like, I don't even consider 565 00:37:17.679 --> 00:37:21.239 that that like part of this. It feels like so separate from this whole 566 00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:23.760 seventy dollars discussion a little bit. Yeah, I mean I and uh, 567 00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:28.599 I'm Caddy Puts said this in chat. I'm old enough to remember when like 568 00:37:28.800 --> 00:37:31.719 there was like a really wide range of prices for games like on the S 569 00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:36.880 and S like RPGs which just costs a lot more. My mind, Super 570 00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:40.400 MARIOPG was like one hundred bucks or something like that because there's like more megabits 571 00:37:40.480 --> 00:37:45.119 or whatever. Yeah, I remember, like I think in every game is 572 00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:46.800 fifty dollars and then my parents being like, no, look at this toys 573 00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:50.679 r us add and some of these are like eighty dollars something, what the 574 00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:54.000 hell uh? And that like that being a really startling, startling realization during 575 00:37:54.000 --> 00:38:00.119 the Supernintendo and N sixty four era, especially during late Supernintendo. But I'm 576 00:38:00.239 --> 00:38:06.239 mostly just over this. I think the subscription models on both systems now really 577 00:38:06.280 --> 00:38:07.280 help. I mean, especially on Sony. This is where you're getting get 578 00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:10.360 most of the seventy dollars games, although there absolutely are seventy dollars Call Duty 579 00:38:10.400 --> 00:38:15.320 games on Xbox and stuff like that. But I think the PlayStation Plus Extra 580 00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:20.079 is so good for giving you a lot of games that you probably haven't played. 581 00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:23.280 Well now you have a beefy backlog. Go play that stuff instead, 582 00:38:23.280 --> 00:38:27.559 and wait until these games go down in price. They always do, if 583 00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:30.920 you're not talking about Nintendo, all these games always go down in price. 584 00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:32.239 Now, they might not go down to twenty, but a lot of them 585 00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:37.199 are going to go down to forty five dollars within the first year. So 586 00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:39.440 just have a little bit of patience and you'll be fine. It's just hard 587 00:38:39.519 --> 00:38:43.039 enough to be like, yeah, this is the way things work. It 588 00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:45.639 sucks. If you want to complain about it, go ahead. It seems 589 00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:47.559 like the deal is done. The toothpastes out of two out of the two, 590 00:38:47.719 --> 00:38:51.719 there's no one doing this, So complaining about it does feel a little 591 00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:53.400 bit like just yelling at a wall. But hey, I'm not going to 592 00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:57.280 tell anybody not to criticize something. Criticize it all you want, but at 593 00:38:57.320 --> 00:39:00.199 a certain point it might just be better for your own mental health to be 594 00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:01.760 like I just I will just wait, I just won't pay it. This 595 00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:06.360 will be a personal decision and I'll move on. Estebond kind of robs something 596 00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:08.079 interesting in chat, like when does switch? When does the tendo start doing 597 00:39:08.079 --> 00:39:12.920 seventy dollars games? Because that's what it's really here to stay. Maybe they're 598 00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:15.800 probably maybe it's part of the whole reason that they are struggling figuring out how 599 00:39:15.840 --> 00:39:19.639 to like present everything recas we talk about like, oh, how do they 600 00:39:19.679 --> 00:39:22.239 move from one console to the next when the switch is so successful and they're 601 00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:23.480 not sure maybe if they're going to be a pro or a switch too or 602 00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:28.760 something. Maybe they're also like, we really should be charging seventy dollars shit 603 00:39:28.840 --> 00:39:31.400 Breath of the whild too. How do we navigate that? Like it feels 604 00:39:31.440 --> 00:39:35.159 like to do that it would have to be on the switch too, but 605 00:39:35.159 --> 00:39:37.320 maybe they're not ready for that. I don't know. They were still doing 606 00:39:37.320 --> 00:39:42.079 fifty dollars games for a while on the weed That's when most things were sixty 607 00:39:42.079 --> 00:39:44.880 dollars, right, right, Yes, But I mean I think it's them 608 00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:49.000 looking at and be like Returnal launched for seventy, We're really going to launch 609 00:39:49.039 --> 00:39:52.360 a Breath of the Wild two for sixty less than Returnal. I could just 610 00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:55.519 see them having that sort of logic about it. But we'll see. You 611 00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:59.519 think, do you think Nintendo knows what a returnal is? Yeah? That's 612 00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:02.440 that might be a good point too. Maybe they maybe they don't know. 613 00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:06.440 I just I think when it like comes under the value proposition, I think 614 00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:09.400 they probably assume that they should be the top valued game in terms of like 615 00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:14.639 how much they cost when they launch, because they keep their prices high forever. 616 00:40:14.880 --> 00:40:16.320 I think this is just part of a little bit of a pride thing 617 00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:19.760 for them at a certain point, even if it also is a very good 618 00:40:19.840 --> 00:40:23.639 business strategy that has worked for them very well. Uh. Okay, last 619 00:40:23.679 --> 00:40:29.719 week I asked which is more likely to win the Keiley Game of the Year 620 00:40:29.760 --> 00:40:34.559 this year, Elden Ring or any other game that came out and let's see 621 00:40:34.559 --> 00:40:38.159 here the results. Eighty two percent said elden Ring. Eighteen percent said any 622 00:40:38.199 --> 00:40:42.000 other game. Mike, where are you at with this? Oh? Yeah, 623 00:40:42.039 --> 00:40:45.840 it's gonna be elden Ring. Yeah. I mean it's like, like, 624 00:40:45.880 --> 00:40:49.760 what else is coming out that can really contend God of War. I'm 625 00:40:49.760 --> 00:40:52.800 sure it's going to need to be nominated. It's hard to imagine it's going 626 00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:54.199 to win because it's some sense. I bet it's going to be a good 627 00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:58.840 sequel, but it is by default gonna be a lot of more the same, 628 00:40:58.920 --> 00:41:01.519 which isn't necessarily problem. That doesn't usually get you Game of the Year, 629 00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:05.960 right, I think that if it's because it's the conclusion. I think 630 00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:09.039 if it really turns people into a mess of being like this story was so 631 00:41:09.119 --> 00:41:13.760 powerful and so moving, that is the one way I could see it, 632 00:41:13.800 --> 00:41:16.559 like sneak it in there Marino and Chat asked is it before the cutoff? 633 00:41:16.679 --> 00:41:22.480 It is? And also they will fully understand the value of pushing that game 634 00:41:22.519 --> 00:41:24.480 out to the press and make sure everyone has a copy and saying, hey, 635 00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:27.199 make sure you play it before the Game of the Year thing, and 636 00:41:27.239 --> 00:41:30.079 remember you can update your ballot if you need to if you already sending ane, 637 00:41:30.119 --> 00:41:31.519 you could update your ballot if you just play God of War. Sony 638 00:41:31.719 --> 00:41:37.519 is very mindful of what of that entire process, so they will make sure 639 00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:43.280 that it gets nominated. I think that elden Ring is kind of guaranteed though 640 00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:49.039 it's just hard. It's like there's too much love for from in the people 641 00:41:49.039 --> 00:41:52.480 who vote, and from his last two games one Game of the Year when 642 00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:55.599 they came out right something like that, I know Seccaro did. Seccaro did, 643 00:41:55.800 --> 00:42:00.679 and games that have a tie to the Game award or two. Keiley 644 00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:02.679 seemed to have some kind of help here, like it takes two one last 645 00:42:02.760 --> 00:42:07.599 year, Yeah, that has a tie and didn't didn't death Stranding actually win 646 00:42:07.719 --> 00:42:09.920 Game of the Year's Training did not Training did not made that up. I 647 00:42:09.960 --> 00:42:14.719 think it didn't get nominated down they got nominated and that game came out right 648 00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:17.719 at the cutoff. So but if you remember death Stranding is the reason that 649 00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:22.920 I know Sony knows how the process works because they send us out code super 650 00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:25.000 early. They said, hey, there's everyone on a staffeed code to like 651 00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:28.079 make sure that they can nominate for a Game of the Year if they want 652 00:42:28.119 --> 00:42:32.840 to like they were very like aggressive about that stuff. So they'll do the 653 00:42:32.880 --> 00:42:36.679 same thing with god Award. But of course I'm glad you correct me. 654 00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:40.280 I've almost started spreading my own Codejima fake. Yeah, he has awards that 655 00:42:40.320 --> 00:42:44.599 he didn't win. Yes, how dare you what did win that year? 656 00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:46.840 I can't remember. Remember, that's a good that's a good question. I'll 657 00:42:46.960 --> 00:42:51.760 I'll bring that up. Okay, let's see. I wanted to do another 658 00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:55.000 tweet for the pulled on Wednesday. Actually, let's see what did I have 659 00:42:55.159 --> 00:43:00.239 here? I wanted to say, do you expect PlayStation first party games come 660 00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:02.480 to PC under two years in the future? What do you think about that, 661 00:43:02.559 --> 00:43:06.719 Mike Under? Yeah, I think at some point it's gonna I'm pretty 662 00:43:06.760 --> 00:43:09.760 curious to see when Shushima gets on there. How long that's that one is 663 00:43:09.840 --> 00:43:14.599 going to take? Yeah, I think that's kind of a big bell Weather 664 00:43:14.760 --> 00:43:19.800 right where that was a big game late PS four, it feels like they're 665 00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:22.400 immediately going to a Ghost of Sushima two. It feels like the kind of 666 00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:25.360 thing that they should put on PC relatively soon to kind of keep that momentum 667 00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:30.440 going. But we'll see. I mean, they did a PS five native 668 00:43:30.559 --> 00:43:32.360 version, right, that process already happens, so yeah, it feels like 669 00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:36.400 what's left to do. It's at least a version for PC. Although week 670 00:43:36.400 --> 00:43:39.119 we're getting pretty close to what two three years for that, so probably that 671 00:43:39.159 --> 00:43:42.719 one's going to probably just fall into the time frame. It might be more 672 00:43:42.760 --> 00:43:45.639 interesting with God of War two, since the first one has already been on 673 00:43:46.199 --> 00:43:50.280 PC and is doing. Well, let's see how long it takes for Ragnarok 674 00:43:50.360 --> 00:43:53.000 to get to PC, right, yes, apparently, Jeff, Yeah, 675 00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:57.800 Actually, twenty nineteen when Secoro one was also the year Distraney came out, 676 00:43:57.880 --> 00:44:00.320 So we answered our own question really with that one one. Okay, look 677 00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:02.760 at this, maybe Resievel two should have won that year. I don't know, 678 00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:07.519 I can't. I'm still kind of mad in twenty twenty that Last of 679 00:44:07.599 --> 00:44:12.079 Us Part two one over Hades actually or in even fun Phasy seven REMI, 680 00:44:12.320 --> 00:44:15.360 yeah, well, what the Last of Us Part one this year? Oh? 681 00:44:15.480 --> 00:44:17.480 God, no way, no way, right, no way, please? 682 00:44:17.960 --> 00:44:21.639 No, that would be I No, there's no way, there's no 683 00:44:21.719 --> 00:44:23.239 way that's happened. Not in a year with elden Ring. Not no chance 684 00:44:23.320 --> 00:44:25.039 in that year, right, not a year with old All right, we 685 00:44:25.239 --> 00:44:29.639 tag this and then we'll send that all right, Thank you everybody for your 686 00:44:29.679 --> 00:44:32.639 patients there. All right, if what games do you have in these campuses 687 00:44:32.679 --> 00:44:36.119 behind it? They look sharp, but I feel like you have a Dunkey 688 00:44:36.159 --> 00:44:39.679 Kong junior one only to mock me. That's that you cost us the arcade 689 00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:45.599 pit with that, what's suddenly some great affinity for Ducky. You barely played 690 00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:49.800 it, you sucked at it. You have some big affinity for you played 691 00:44:49.840 --> 00:44:52.639 it? Okay, So the story is I had played it like a couple 692 00:44:52.679 --> 00:44:55.800 of times before. I never got past the first level. I was all 693 00:44:55.840 --> 00:44:59.119 right, that's interesting, and moved on with my life. And then of 694 00:44:59.159 --> 00:45:00.480 course came up in the art hate pit, and of course Dan Reker was 695 00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:02.440 like, I love this scream I player a million times, so he just 696 00:45:02.559 --> 00:45:06.280 flies right through it, while I'm like, overget that. I gave you 697 00:45:06.360 --> 00:45:09.199 like a two minute head stark because I had. That's not how I remember 698 00:45:09.239 --> 00:45:13.519 it anyway. Later that day, because I was feeling so terrible about losing, 699 00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:15.599 I mean, we would have lost anyhow I we won, but whatever, 700 00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:21.400 it was still an embarrassing showing her. I don't have much give me 701 00:45:21.559 --> 00:45:23.760 that, at least in an effort to regain some dignity. I played a 702 00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:27.800 lot of Donkey Kong Junior that day and really kind of fell in love with 703 00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:30.760 it. It's really hard. It's a day too late. Ja, Look 704 00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:35.880 what else I see? I seem sixty four? What's in between out Run 705 00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:38.119 and Donkey km that's it's it's kind of dark. It's Mike Tyson's punch out 706 00:45:38.199 --> 00:45:42.280 at night when they're running at night. Oh cool, Yeah, I like 707 00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:44.599 it. There's a few more I gotta put up, but I'm I'm happy 708 00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:46.800 with those. What did? I had another gameplay scene. It was actually 709 00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:51.079 Donkey kNN but I accidentally ordered it as a mouse pad, so I kind 710 00:45:51.079 --> 00:45:53.599 of that kind of I was gonna put that in the supermar sixty fourth spot, 711 00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:57.559 but I figured that that's fine. I got a few there's actually and 712 00:45:57.639 --> 00:46:01.599 over there there's the maps for Super MARIARP and Super uh and linked linked to 713 00:46:01.639 --> 00:46:05.239 the past and stuff. So like that. Well, I'm gonna try to 714 00:46:05.639 --> 00:46:07.480 visit you this weekend so I can get a full tour. Yes exactly, 715 00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:09.880 I'm looking forward to it. My wife's making me really clean up, and 716 00:46:09.960 --> 00:46:13.320 Mike. Mike's a slop. He doesn't care. Yeah, I don't get 717 00:46:13.360 --> 00:46:15.960 too fancy for me? Please? All right, what is happening on Giant 718 00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:20.159 Bomb this week? You know it's gonna be a week. I don't know. 719 00:46:20.239 --> 00:46:22.679 We're gonna do the BombCast tomorrow.

We're did any newsbreak while we're here? It feels like 730 00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:00.880 Monday's kind of get off to a slow start. Yeah, I think chat 731 00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:02.480 with Tooth it does feel like us those start, which is kind of nice. 732 00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:05.960 Knock on wood. Yeah, well see, we'll see well, I 733 00:47:06.039 --> 00:47:08.800 didn't beyond good and evil to start like some kind of test today, which 734 00:47:08.880 --> 00:47:12.719 is crazy to me. So at some point we're going to find out what 735 00:47:12.920 --> 00:47:15.920 kind of game that actually is. It's a it's gonna be a Joseph Gordon 736 00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:22.599 Levitt special, and that we are at the museum of other people's art that 737 00:47:22.639 --> 00:47:25.480 they didn't pay for perfect, just like j G.
