M m h it's the Internet. You're busy. Let's do this. Welcome
to the Game mess Acides podcast. This is the podcast where we decide everything
about the world games so you don't have to think for yourself. I'm your
host, Mike MINAUGHTI and with me is Sean Turbo Shan McDowell. In today's
episode, far for is big in Europe and probably other places, and we're
picking the mount rushmore of praries I mean songa games, I mean maybe both,
maybe both. Don't get don't get too excited, Sean. Yeah.
Uh, hey, Jeff's still busy with the kids. Uh so. Uh
we are going grubless today. That's okay though, because I got Sean with
me. How's it going, Sean, Oh, it's going good. Mike.
Uh, you know, we're getting to the end of the weekend.
I'm tired because that's the way things go nowadays. Out of Mike during the
intro. Sorry watching Yeah, god, yeah, I'm tired. I've been
on I was just kind of like in this computer chair a lot today.
But that's okay. Got some time to walk aroundside, make some food,
enjoy that record player that Grub got me. Did I tell you about the
record player. No, I don't. I don't think I know about the
record player. What's up with that? Jeff got me a kind of late
birthday Christmas present, and it's the record player, which is I've never had
one before mm hmm. So it's really it's it's it's a very it's very
nice. And now I'm into collecting vinyl, which for me is like a
couple real albums and then video games soundtracks. I have Streets of Rage Too
and Symphony of the Night, the kind of highlights on the collection. But
it's great. I love just kind of throwing those on and then going about
whatever I'm doing in the kitchen. It's a it's actually been nice. I
get the IPO. I get it. Yeah, is do you notice a
song quality difference or is it more sort of just like the whole process of
setting it up in earthing? I mean, it sounds really good. I
also did get like nice speakers for it. It's such a nice turntable doesn't
even have like its own speakers, like I had to get some like and
it does Bluetooth, but I got like the wired ones, right, So
okay, sure, I mean you know I'm not enough of like it sounds
not to really be like, yes, this is definitely the clearest. It
sounds very nice. I mean I'm used to just like playing music off of
my phone and carrying it around me, So yeah, it sounds a lot
better than that. Absolutely cool. Yeah. I used to have a setup
like that myself, but just through some moves, it kind of got to
be high maintenance and I just ended up giving it away. But I kind
of want to guess up like that again because I do. I don't have
many, but I do have a couple vinyls. I have both of the
Mega Man Legends vinyls that Nice shipped to Shore did, which actually, you
know, that's that's a little thing we can talk about real quick. Ship
to Shore. Do you know about this company, Mike All. They they
did a whole bunch of video game vinyls. You know, you give them
from variety places. They were one of the big ones. I think they
also like produced them for other companies, like some of the yetty ones that
they have they got from them. I believe they actually closed down or the
past week, so has a bit of a bummer. I don't know what
that says about the state of video game vinyl necessarily right, well, because
because I am a bit doesn'm I think and limited run Mondo used to.
I know Mondo had a lot of cutbacks at some point. I don't know
Mondo Johnese Japanese game developers do vinyls? I think, yeah, because yeah,
their soundtracks are big, so that makes sense. But yeah, I
don't know, uh either either way, just collecting collecting vinyl can be cool
because also a display peace condition of being functional. So I get I get
the appeal. Oh, Chris Can punched his microphone. I thought, I
don't know why. I thought you meant your punching me. It's like,
what do you mean you were like like like like figuratively punching me. Yeah.
I thought it was a bit like we were holding mike down and turn
on and everything and turn it off. I need to touch it in a
specific place on the top, but I just I punched it in the middle
and turn on and was like shit, and then I couldn't turn it off
again and was like, oh fuck, this shit is broken. So I
thought that came true. All right. Greb has like a whole bullet points
worth of other things that he says. Here to get more from Sean and

that's going on here. First thing, Fallout four is the best selling game
in Europe right now and kind of all over the place, Fallout games have
seen a giant surge in players. This is, of course, because of
that new Fallout TV show that it's on Amazon right, Yes, Sam's up
Prime, Yeah, absolutely so. Fallout just doing very well. This show
seems to be universally very well liked. Have you been feeling the Fallout itch
at all yourself, Sean, Nah, because I'm not a huge Fallout guy.
I'm kind of just not big well I was gonna say Bethesda RPG guy.
I'm not a big Western RPG guy broadly speaking. But like I've mentioned
on content elsewhere, I did really like New Vegas. I kind of got
the answer to go back to that. You know, Jeff was playing him
more at the day job today and I was like, it's been a long
time. It's been since like that game released. Mike. I did a
pass the controller play through with a friend way back when, well it would
have been roughly high school. Yeah, I should have been high school when
we did that when I first came out. No, just a good time.
So I am kind of thinking of going back to one of the games.
But the show itself, I don't know nothing about what I'm hearing.
Does it for me? Really? How about you? Have you watched that
all or no? But I want to. And that's saying a lot for
me because I don't watch anything. I don't watch any TV shows, as
you know. On the same way, Yeah, yeah, yeah, the
fact that I want to watch. It is a big deal. I you
know, even though Fallout four is the one getting like the patch right and
it's the newer game, New Vegas is the one I want to go back
to you. I didn't get to watch much of grub playing it. Did
he have a good time? From what I heard? Yeah, I had
on the background because I was taking care of ot stuff today. But it
seem yeah, it seems like you enjoyed it. I saw that he did.
After all, he said he was going to do it with mods.
I think he did with minor mods, is what is what happened, because
we might have talked him out of it. I don't know if I had
any any sway over him or not. Or Yeah, we have a thing
going on where we're getting some footage of mod and Fallout, So I think
he did like minor mods. Someone said mods were crashing, so no,
he wasn't. So he listen to me. It's just that it was impossible
to do it with Okay, got it? God, that's right. He
also puts like one hundred mods in the like because yeah, I've seen amount
of MUDs. Yeah he's going to crash for showing more mods. The better
I forget where you are on the whole the mod thing, Sean. I'm
I like functional mods. I mentioned when we were talking on the BombCast this
week last week whatever was uh something like Starfield not having DSS support. L
did have fs R and there was a mod to add in DSS in place
of as FSR. That's the kind of thing that I like. Or you
know, a mod that will if the the frame rate is capped and then
you can install a mod that oncaps it without breaking anything, Like it'll be
a mod to fix the physics when you on cap the frame rate. Stuff
like that, I'm really into. But when it comes to, yeah,
like the silly stuff like putting Maio nic cage is the moon. Yeah,
that's that's not really my jam. I'm like, yeah, I would just
watch on youtubefore Yeah, the tech talk content mods, I'm like, that's
I mean, it's fine, you know, I don't you know, I
don't want to know mean to be like some big grump about it, but
it doesn't just doesn't really do a whole lot. Yeah, for me,
I did. I did play Fallout seventy six, though I went back and
checked that out. I haven't played that since launch and like and everyone says
that game's like pretty good. Now, yeah, it's pretty good. Now.
It's basically just the Fallout game. Like all MMOs, it struggles like
really figuring out what it means to be an MMO. It's like, yeah,
there's other people around. You can do stuff with them, I guess,
but like, aside from like endgame content, there's usually very little reason
to do anything with them. Just the idea of like playing this Fallo up
game set in West Virginia, which is a really nice, a very different
setting. Yeah for these things, right, so I was enjoying that maybe
I'll maybe I'll jump in a little bit. Part of me is still like
if I really want to play a fall though, I really want to play
one those super single player Craft did one instead of one where you know it's
like, hey, go build your base. I don't want to build a
base. I really there's nothing. I can't just enough, how little I
want to build a base and fall Out yeah, something about that building out
and like in Starfield, I know, I know we're talking about followed,
but in Starfield, man, that was just so boring and it is.
I talked to people who are more familiar with you know their games. I
was like, what was the point of building in Starfield to get more stuff
to build? I'm like, okay, that's it weird. Well what was
it in FULLA And they're like, okay, well, in Fallow it actually
makes sense because you can sort of have like a little home based type of
thing. And okay, that makes that makes a bit more sense. I
can see why people would like that. Yeah, yeah, exactly. I
you know, of course we're getting a lot more of these media adaptations of
video games. The success of Fallout is only going to make that go further.
You know, there's there's that new Golden Ax show announced by the people
who do Star Trek Lower Decks. Yeah, and it's funny because, like,
you know, you think, like the thing with Fallow is that,
Okay, it's great that these people are playing Fallout, but these games are
very cheap. They're on sale. It's of course throwing some money. Apathize
that it would be if you if you have Amazon Prime, which if you're
watching the show, I assume you do have, seventy six is free through
Prime out if it still is, but at least it was. But it's
not the same as like if they had Fallout five out right now, no
seventy dollars at least if Golden Ax for some reason that show really hits,
which you know, I can't batu a hit as well. There is a
new Golden Axe game coming out right that is one of the Sega ones happening.
The synergy is there, so it's I know, obviously a Fallout game
is huge and hard to make. It does feel like, well, I
think you were mentioning dr Day, it feels weird. There's not a lot
of synergy between some of these adaptations that are coming out because when they hit,
they hit hard, and you get stuff like Cyberpunk edge Runners just absolutely
making everyone lose their minds over Tyropunk, which, by way, have you
seen Edge Runners, Mike, No, I heard good things, but that
to me, that seemed to me like that was the start of like the
good will finally coming to cyber Yeah, Cyberpunk around. That's how kind of
like the show is is people were like, oh, this is good.
Actually, even if it was you know, Cyerpunk was still messy at that
point, but people had almost like convinced themselves because of how good the show
was that the game was good too, which by the way, By the
way, Edge Runners is by my Frey Anime studio as well. I can't
recommend it enough. If anyone hasn't seen, including yourself, I recommend checking
out at some point. It's worth the watch. But yeah, like that,
and what else has there been? There's a oh, yeah, the
Witcher, I was saying, The Witcher, like CD Projects seems to have
this figured out right, Yeah, well, Witcher's last season has come of.
That show did have a big like turnaround for the worst at a certain
point. Everyone loved season one and then it was just kind of downhill.
Yeah, Christians Yeast of Us. Yet of course that was some surgery there
because it was Part one was Yeah, they had that remake come out,
and I mean also you know part you know, Last of Us two is
still out there for people to get. But you know, Twist Twisted Metal
gets brought up if you really like the Twisted Bell Show, There's really was
nothing for you to go by. There was nothing to go by like the
PS. You're gonna buy the p S three version or Twisted Metal two classic.
I think like Black is on one of the tiers of PS plus or
something like. Yeah, there's almost nearly the same. Yeah, so it's
just really weird that they would put out that adaptation with nothing to go with
it. I mean they were trying, it sounds like, but Vigian developments
just so hard. It's like nothing came of it, Like nothing happened,
nothing got off the ground. So what we really need is a megament legend
show and then we'll maybe have to get Meglo though nobody Beau. No one
likes the show, right, It's weird people. It's like Luke Warming too
about that show. They're like it's okay, and fans of Halo hate this
ship out of that show. So it's like renew all the time, like
you guys were new. Well because for Paramount Plus, I'm sure it still
does well at least for now. But that's the thing. Your show has
to be pretty well liked in order for it to actually have an impact,
because, yeah, the Halo Show didn't do anything for Halo infitting, even
though like in that case, there was a new game people could have jumped
into really work out. Okay, next thing here, Kingdom Come Deliverance Too
was announced by Warhorse Studios. They claim it will be twice as big as
the original did. You ever play Kingdom Come Deliverance, because I just I
never did. I mean, you're not a Western RPG guy, so yeah,
exactly, I'll be honest, Like I had to just google it just
now. This was the one people got upset about because it, uh,
I don't know, there was weird vibes or there's something this big because they
Fantasy sixteen did this as well. Was this the yeah, okay, okay,
the no minorities for historical accuracy thing, which like what what whatever?
I think they even said like this time that won't be the case because of
like the different scopes. So so whatever, I never played keep them Come
Deliverance. I looking at now, I've seen someone play a little bit and
they, I'll be honest, seemed unimpressed. So I don't know, I
mean it's it's it's like a real realistic one where it's like very medieval.
I don't think there's even a smidge of fantasy. It's just straight up medieval
stuff. Okay, So like my interest in like that kind of you know,
real dirty you can like smell the bo off of the like medieval nights
kind of fantasy. Not really exactly uh my kind of thing. Yeah,
I remember you saying you didn't love the at least aesthetics of Dragon's Dogma two
for the same reason. Exactly, Yeah, exactly, It's just not really
my thing. Uh yeah, yeah, like I don't know what I know.
Yeah, I just keep calling it dirt fantasy here, but again,
fantasy not really the order of that they are. But you know, there
is still a market for these games stuff the first game then it get good
reviews, but a lot of people played it. It found a surprisingly good
audience, and I think this one can slot in pretty nicely. Still,
there is still a big hankering for these big kind of Western RPGs. There
are only so many of them that do come out, so I want to
be shocked if this is a hit. Speaking of rpg hits, though,
Larry and confirms it's working on two new projects. They say, what we're
working on now will be our best work ever. Uh you know, I
guess it's nice that they're not like, yeah, we're phoning it in after
that's the success supporters K three. I bet one of these is Divinity Original
Sin three or some kind of Divinity thing, and then the other one is
maybe something new. Does that sound right to you Sean, that does sound
right to me, Yeah, because they you know, if you have your
own original series that can be doing some of the same things with your last
big hits, but you aren't tied down by a license and having to deal
with the license holder that is in not a great place. Right now,
it makes sense, you know, you go for it, right, Yeah,
that's exactly right. And you know, meanwhile, the Dutcher Dragons people
has bro right, They're like, oh, we're gonna get somebody else to
make boulders Gate, And it's like, man, good luck, because I
just don't know, like, like who, like Ubsidian was, maybe the
other people who could do it, Like I don't think you're gonna be able
to book them, so like there are a lot of studios that do make
these these Western RPGs, and hey, Larryan, like, you know,
the scope of the first original sin was small, and then they grew up
from there to the point where they could do a boaters Gate three. So
maybe somebody else can scale up like this. It's just I just don't know
exactly who. And the problem is, expectations are now very high. Whatever
you're gonna do with Bouldersgate going forward, and as soon as people see something
they don't like or doesn't feel right, they're just gonna immediately blame it on
the fact that that it's not larrying. Yeah, definitely, especially if they
change something about it from just being a traditional CRPG or whatever, right,
and they can't change much if people is like concerned about that. Like the
old Divinity games, they're not dn D based on their rules, but the
rules are very light close. Yeah, they're pretty close. I don't think
they're gonna lose that cool vibe of like tabletop feeling, you know. Okay,
Yeah, I wonder what they'll do. I was talking when I was
like, I was kind of reading comments and like Reddit about what they might
be doing. People like, I hope they do something that's a bit darker
than Divinity. Divinity is too like cartoony for me. It's like, isn't
everything else already? Like everything's gotta be like the Witcher and fucking Game of
Thrones now, I guess whatever, Like Boterskate already kind of was that.
I guess Boterskate is too colorful and fanciful for people. Also, it can
be yeah, I don't know, yeah people, yeah, or sometimes it'll
to edge Lordie. They want their dark fantasy, which, hey, you
know, if that's where you're into, that's where you're into, totally cool.
But I honestly want to see what Larian would do in an entirely different
setting in general, if the setting's not just sci fi. Okay, Like
when I say I want people who make fantasy games to do something new,
I don't mean I want them to do sci fi. And it's the same
if you make sci fi games, like, don't just make fantasy as your
next thing, right right? Yeah, I will say though with Larry and
specifically, I actually kind of would be down if they want to try their
handles. I guess the Shadow Run specifically, sure, I don't think yeah,
but I don't think they're gonna work with any other ip night. I
don't think they will. But just something in the vein of that where it
is, you know, fantasy mixed with technology. Maybe sure, something like
steampunk or something as well, which you know, again along the vein of
Shadow Run, there's a little steam punky in there mixed with the fancy and
the tech, but just something different. We used to have steampunk overload in
gaming and now feels like people have backed off from that enough that I'd be
fine seeing it again. They had in the day, yeah, yeah,
and then they had the the Xbox Shooter and everything. I just remember,
though, what is the someone to help us out here? Mike can't remember
that Xbox Steampunk game. Yeah, it's like something something Yeah, whatever,
that is whatever. That's an exile, which would have been a good that
is tender, Okay, an exile would have been a good contender to maybe
step into boters Gate. But again, they're with Microsoft. Now they're gonna
do what Microsoft tells them to do. Yeah. That was like one of
like three games coming out soon that looked like BioShock, including like the actual
Ken Levine game and apparently also an actual BioShock Clockwork Revolution is the name.
Thank you codding, Yeah, thank you, thank you. Yeah, that
one I don't remember looking at it didn't do necessarily a ton. It's so
funny because I love BioShock like one a lot. It was when I played
it the first time, I loved it, and now every time I see
something that's clearly aping yet I kind of rolled my eyes a little for some
reason. How original. But even their own names are like that, even
like bioshoke like three infinite or like oh sure, well bo Infinite immediately got
readdressed. Okay, next thing here, Pokemon Go has new avatars and they're
ugly and everyone's really mad. And at first I want to be like,
oh, what are people overreacting about now? And then I can go look
at them, I'm like, what the fuck is? They actually are kind
of ugly, they're hideous. What they do, I don't know what they
did, Mike. This is yet another example of Niantic just not knowing what
the hell they're doing. Seemingly it is weird. It's an unnecessary change.
They they're doing a lot with like the graphics in the game in general.
For example, if you if you go to catch a Pokemon and Pokemon Go
and you don't have ar turned on, it'll just be a static background of
something relatively similar to where you are. Usually it's like a grassy backround.
Sometimes there will be snow if it's snowing or something like that, and they've
updated all of those and they're doing some of that stuff. The lighting is
a little bit different, but they also, yeah, like overhauled the way
avatars look, and I don't nobody seems to know why. Yeah, it's
just it's weird. It's a risky thing, even if I'm fantacy fourteen.
It's next expansion, Dawn Trell. It's getting like this graphical overhaul. Everyone's
like really excited. And now some people are seeing like how their characters look
in the graphical overhaul, which you can do with the benchmark test, and
some people like, I don't it looks different. I don't really like it.
Yes, yes, true, but also you know what's genius final fund
of Tea fourteen. They're gonna give you one free, like what taught you
change the look at your character? Right? Yeah, what we understand,
and we're gonna give you that item that costs like ten bucks, we're gonna
give you for free because we are updating this nice Yeah, so what's going
on fourteen not a huge deal with more of a curiosity. But this Pokemon
thing is that's a bizarre are I don't know what they're going. Natic is
such a weird company because they had that giant, giant giant hit and its
bands to do well, but then everything else that they have tried since then,
it's just nothing's good to hit. Nothing is ever going to match that
game concept better than Pokemon. Nothing else will ever make as much sense for
that. And like, like I mentioned a little bit, they've made so
many odd decisions over the years that just piss off the player base, Like
when they rolled back the restrictions on remote rating. This is a very specific
thing. I'll try to keep it simple, not getting right two into the
weeds. But when COVID happened, when we were all in lockdown, they
changed their That was they i believe, the introduction actually of remote rating,
where someone could be at a location somewhere in the world and then they could
send invites to people to invite them to that raid remotely. And so what
people were doing is they were exchanging friends and codes, they were using third
party apps to you know, matchmake basically and get into those raids. Well,
when the pandemic you know, subsided as much as it has, Niantic
rolled that back and they're as like, wait a second, but we pay
you money to do these things, and you're getting rid of this source of
income for yourselves. Why would you do that? Like I'll I people were
happily paying like five bucks a week or something even just to like, you
know, remote rate and get some legendary Pokemon or something. Why would you
take that back? There's yeah, they've just done so many weird things with
that game, and this is just, yeah, another one of those.
It's so odd. Yeah, I have no idea what's going on over there.
We'll see what book becomes of Niantic last thing here. Hades too has
started a technical test. Some people are playing Haities two right now. I
peeked in on some streams. I don't have a code yet myself, and
hey, it looks like Haities more and that looks fantastic to me. I
loved Hades. Just seeing some cool little plot details here. I won't get
into specifics in case people don't want to know. Don't worry, Jef's not
here. Nothing will be spoiled for you today, you know, seeing some
returning character, seeing some some new ones. I confessed this I wasn't in
the last one, I believe, and you have him here. I am
just so ready for this. I am not much of an early access kind
of guy. This isn't even really their early access. So as badly as
I want to play it, there is still a part of me that does
just want to wait. But that that means probably waiting until next year.
I don't I don't know, yeah, because how do you just a tech
test? How do you feel do you want to play this or the early
access or you well? Okay, Well, first of all, to start,
I never actually played all the way through Hades one because I picked up
like the intro. But I've I've just never been a roguelike guy or even
rogue light for the most part. Interesting, man, that's kind of the
souper de jore. That's not really the frame. Yeah, well you're on
song here. I know you're chef coded, chef pilled already. It makes
something like a roguelike and it might be in Jeff Grubb's top ten gave me
the airlas right. It's ironic because Super Giant historically is like one of my
favorite I'm not yeah, yeah, I mix upthing super Massive, but no
super Giant. It's like one of my one of my favorite developers in like
the three sixty era, going to PS four Xbox one era. I loved
Bastion, I thought Transistor was super cool, and then yeah, Hades came
out. I was just not super thrilled about it, And some people have
told me I see Mikey O'Leary and Chad who is one of these people who
did really try to give a try. And there are also people who don't
love Rugu Lkes either and they say, yeah, it didn't change my mind,
but yeah, I mean it is roguelike. The roguel like it's it's
very rogue lady, that is what's going on there. Yeah, And so
I think I have developed more appreciation for rogue lights though, and Haites falls
more into that category to my understanding, because you know it is the entire
game is based around you dying, and so that always made it more appealing
to me. Thinking there's a lot of permanent upgrades in Haiti, right,
combined with the fact that they have dialogue that specifically references that and everything.
So Haites has just been on the backlog forever now for me go back to
and try. When Haities to get announced that I said, all right,
you know, I'll give it an a shot. Aboun't like. I don't
like it, but I do want to get back to it. But as
far as the early access thing goes, I'm just non early access kind of
guy like agreement on that. Yeah you grub yeah, when it was dropping
you update. You see how they change like like it's like weapons install,
how they changed their They've molded their ideas around community feedback. It's pretty cool.
I love that. It's cool to be involved in that. I agree.
I just yeah, I don't even know how to describe what to put
my finger on, but it is just one of those things where I prefer
the finished products. Did you like me row your eyes a bit at everybody?
Was that last year before putting Vampire Survivors High Up on their Game of
the Year with High Up? No, but shoot, what was it in
competition with? Because what it would have been twenty twenty two? Yeah,
I guess it was the last year's the year before that? Oh okay,
that I didn't have a problem like the elder Ring year. That was the
elder Ring year. And that's the thing. I'm not a Soul's guy,
so I just didn't care about elder Ring. So it was going, yeah,
I'm guessing my games a year, which is like Rumble versus. It
was your twenty twenty two game day. I think I sailed on saying that
Rumble Verse was. Yeah, I really liked Scarlet and Violet despite their flaws,
but there was, so I know. But that's the funny thing.
Twenty twenty two was such a not me year. Obviously, incredible games like
elden Ring just not for me. So I did have stuff like that in
my top five for the year. Uh, you know what is for you,
sean super chats. We're gonna read those right after a quick little break
here, we'll be right back. Okay, and we're back. All right.
We've got some super chats here. Thank you so much to everyone who
has sent one. You could still send in your super chat. We'll read
your comment. We're questioned during the show, Radu Pericle Tagana says Mars at
their Minnte is great worth the two hundred dollars. Also, Mike play Tangle
Tower best in classic voice. I think an animation sequle comes out this year.
Okay, I don't Yeah, I don't know either of these. I
think I don't know why Mars at the Mint would be two hundred dollars maybe
local for whatever that translates to that. Oh right, right, right,
that's that makes it because the super chats in a different currency. So that's
that's what I'm thinking. Tangle Tower you out to check. Oh, thank
you, Thank you. Willow Davis says, don't forget about Siga's best Billy
Hatcher. Yeah, we're going to be doing uh, we're gonna be doing
our Sega Mount Rushmore later. But what do you think about Billy Hatrick,
because I, uh, I think I didn't care for it, and I
like the Lover. It's solid. I think it's solid, not amazing,
but yeah, it is Glover adjacent. I think I think that's fun.
I like Glover as well, but it is the only other three D platform
where that you could say is a Glover like you're rolling around bag Katamari adjacent.
But yeah, yeah, but that's not really a platform or ketamory.
I don't know, definitely not. Yeah, that's more of a puzzle game.
So I don't want to I want to play Billy Hatchrick again. It's
been so long. Uh that boy. Jerry says, please tell me you
solid that Red Lobster is considering filing for bankruptcy. I'm losing money on the
endless shrip deal. Rest in peace, cheddar bag biscuits that this is distressing
news. Everybody filing for bankruptcy does not mean that you're done. You're done
that's just, uh, it's just it's a it's a thing you do so
that you can kind of protect yourself from certain financial things. I don't understand
it, but it doesn't necessarily mean the end of Red Lobster will be okay
everybody. The cheddar bait biscuits will continue. We'll get our popcorn shrimpies,
I'll get my Cajun chicken alfredo. We'll all be fine, at the very
least as long as they keep selling them in the stores in that mix,
We'll be all right, all right. I don't know if I've actually done
the mix. Is it? Is it really as good getting the mix?
I don't know. I tried it once and it was, you know,
it was pretty close. It wasn't the same, but it was pretty darn
closed. I was nothing nothing. The thing Chris Pratt is so happy where
people are enjoying video game adaptations after my groundbreaking performance reminds me of when I
was stomping hoopahs in Mario Our Kid. Thank you christ Son, Yeah forget
it. You know, the Mario movie did like and help some Mario games,
and I'm like fallout. People want to go buy a Mario game.
They were paying sixty bucks, or that it was no sale, so the
title did very well from all that figured out, right, right, it
was just like one game, every Mario game when the switch was still sixty
bucks. I think so pretty much. Chris Pratt is back, says,
Mike has never Kingdom comed chriss on, what this is like your Bubba Gump
mine? Come on, I thought you were classy, now come on,
Chris. Wow, the chared Wolf says thoughts on us getting a Medieval to
remake before Jack ratchert or Slyy remakes man I love. So anyway, did
they really announce a Medieval to remake that? I wouldn't be surprised if it's
a rumor. I definitely didn't see. Well, they remade the they remade
Medieval, I mean Medieval, because they remade the first Medieval, and you
know, it seems like no one cared right at all. Uh So I
just would be shocked if they were actually doing the second one, which I
understand that's supposed to be a better game by all accounts. There's a Medieval
too, uh PlayStation and lifestyle at that time. It's reportedly releasing soon.
I mean sure, it's from an insider who previously leaked the existence of the
Gravity Rush to remaster. Hey, like again, I think that's neat.
You already did the first one. This one's supposed to better. I am
surprised. I am surprised. Who did the other Ocean? What on earth
other Ocean did the Medieval remake? I didn't realize that. So okay,
a lot makes sense because they're probably not doing much else right now. Right,
it's you know the thing with Ratchet and and all those other ones,
right, those are still very big published developers. That's Sony who are busy
making other games. And hang on, Mike, this is this is really
going to take away from other oceans work on Cloudy Mountain and Nightstalker for the
Amiko. I don't know if they're gonna be able to do that, but
no, that's why this happened. They probably they got some time. I'm
trying to find out who did develop Medieval originally. Oh it was so Gorilla
Cambridge. That was Gorilla Cambridge so much tonight, jeez, Okay, so
hey, whatever grade they're making, Medieval Carbridge is not around anymore. Yeah,
they were just sc back then. I see, I see, that's
what happened just in internal PlayStation studio. Yeah so hey, yeah, any
bike can go and remake Medieval, whereas if you want to remake Ratchet and
Clank or a Jack in Dexter, you got to talk to Insomniac or freaking
Naughty Dog, and they might they might not know what you play if they're
toys. Speaking of PlayStation real quick, someone in Chad mentions some that remind
me, how do you feel about the idea of a PlayStation launcher on PC?
It's I don't know, it's just I certainly don't need any more of
those. I kind of just hope that it's just is integrated into their games
on Steam. I don't want a launcher. I put up with it with
Xbox because at least I get access to these game pass games on there,
but like achievements do nothing for me, and all this other stuff I hate
having. When I get a code, sometimes I have to activate on the
Xbox launcher instead of in Steam. Yeah really, so I want everything on
Steam. I want everything on Steam same because it just works, you know.
Yep Ope, the dogs are breaking that talk. Yeah, mister Jody
says, Hey, Mike, despite the meme is hollow night niche or it
is giant. I'm just full of uncultured gamers. Also, I have a
dog nags penny if you need to borrow one for some reason. I mean,
niches are always relative. I would say, no, it's not niche.
All nights are very In terms of indie games, Hollow Night is as
popular as they can come in a lot of ways. I think that's it's
It's probably sold five million copies or more. I guess, I'm not sure
how what the sale numbers are on Hollow Night Allow Nights again. Again,
that's probably been on sale a lot over three million as a December twenty twenty
is what I got up. That was a while ago, spinned up since
then. So you know, it's always like, hey, like, is
it niche in terms of like the world? Sure? In terms of like
people who are watching a show like this, No, I bet a lot
of people here underst know what holiday is and care about it, especially in
the grand scheme of indie games or even metroid venues or what have you.
I mean, Metroid Venya is still certainly a niche genre in the grand scheme
of things, But that doesn't mean that you know, it's it's like so
small beans, it doesn't matter. Oh also I looked up the so what
leaked out of the whole PlayStation thing is that they are doing the integration with
the games on Steam at least. But this brought up the fact that they
were originally going to do a launcher and maybe they would be bringing that back
as that's just speculation. Okay, I see, I see. All right,
well that's it for super chance. We want to go right into Mount
rush are here? Or should let's just go? We took a break a
little bit ago. All right, so everybody, we are doing Mount Rushmore
of furries right now? Uh yeah, I guess you gotta take lead on
this one. Shown. I don't really quite understand it myself. It's just
the sis Sega games is that TYPEO. That's the type of We are clearly
doing the Mount Rushmore of furries in video games. Okay, let's go,
let's go fastest one with me. We can still squeez Sega in here.
Who do you got Oh? We need Crystal on there? Okay, you
need Crystal? Uh about how about that that that that bunny Pokemon? Good
call Lopanie, Yeah, you gotta have the the Lopani absolutely obviously, I
don't know. Does H does Candy Kong do anything for you? I kind
of weirded out by her. The proportions are very nice. It's upsetting.
Same thing with like the Girl conquer Uh and Crash Bandicoots, although Crush Bandicoots
is actually better for some reason. I don't mind Tanah Remake Tana Remake Tana
very nice. Yeah, from from what's what's her name? From? What
h? That's not video gamecare one? Oh my god, you are not
helping. Come on anyways, you gottage. You gotta have Rouge, all
right. I like it mount Rushboo of furries. In video games, it's
Crystal Law, Pani Tanya and Rouge the Bat fantastic. Well, why don't
we switch over to Saga now? I guess we have to Mike just in
case if we have to. Uh, all right, man, this is
actually pretty hard to find just four games to represent Sega, because there are
some that just kind of have to be there, and then there are so
many other sectors of Sega that you could touch upon. I look, I
think you have to have Snuk the Hedgehog, and I think in Mountain I
this is, this is why we're doing it when Jeff's not here, right,
so Sonic actually gets on the list, right, Yeah, it should
be sonkeed the Hedgehog one. I think in this case for Mount Rushmore,
thank the Hedgehog one. Was this a very, very big deal. It's
what started everything. I know that, I know we talked. I know
we talked before, like I'm much more of a Sonic one guy than your
in general, but Rushmore terms like, of course Sonic two was also very
big, but it was like a trajectory. It's not like it was this
giant like step up. Let's talk options here because the options are so one.
I think song three and Knuckles is at least in the conversation because of
the legacy of it. People don't love Sonic one as much anymore, but
Three and Knuckles is like the one people usually go to in addition to being
a fairly big game back then that Sonic Adventure at least is in the conversation
that was a big release. It's a big release. Hey, yeah,
trust me, and I like Sonic Adventure a lot in the time, and
of course everyone's favorite. So which is the most hopefully right, if we
just write song the Hedgehog, it maybe we Meano sixfiing. There you go.
I talked to you into it, all right, got it? I
think you have to have something to represent the arcade era and maybe specifically kind
of like the that early three D era, And I don't know, it's
hard for me because they were big pioneers in three D gaming in the arcades,
and like the real big pioneer ones, it was like what was first
and most important. You can make a case for virtual racing, and then
Daytona just seems like so much better than that in a lot of ways,
and also important because it was now textured polygons. Virtual Fighter similar thing,
very early, very successful a fighting game. I guess if I had to
pick a rep from that kind of important arcade era, for me, Daytona
USA might be my go to. I wonder if you as like a fighting
game fight a fighting game guy feel more strongly about Virtue Fighter. Virtual Fighter
is easily one of the most influential games ever made. We wouldn't have three
D fighters without them, but we also wouldn't potentially have esports without them,
which may seem like a crazy statement to people, but Japan hopped on the
esports bandway or created the esports bandway because of Virtual Fighter back in like the
mid nineties. So I think it is the bigger game than Daytona personally,
as much as like Daytona is a fantastic game, a beloved game, I
think Virtua Fighter has more. Let's catch it. Let's do on those two.
Maybe we'll see what like the our supporters think or everyone on discord,
because it's I think it is between those two. Would you like considering it
the even earlier arcade games like an Outrun or anything like that. That's I
think that gives us to what a Mount Rushmore is because you know, Mike,
you and Jeff sometimes stray from the four oh, sometimes you play favorites
a little bit. Sure, I'm here to make sure that we stripe the
ballast between influential as well as still important, and something like Outrun certainly influential.
Was it important still is it's still beloved? I don't think so.
So Okay, so let me let me ask you this, because I feel
like there should be a Dreamcast game. But it's kind of hard. It's
hard to like, what is the one Sega made Dreamcast game? In some
ways, it's sonic adventure, but we're not going to do another Sonic game.
So it's like you like, there's so many of these that are of
equal importance to me, like Jet Said, Radio, Sambadea, Migo,
shen MoU, Crazy Taxi Skys of Arcadia, Like they're all bangers of almost
equal stature to me. It's hard to look at one and be like,
that's that's the one. That's gotta be c Man specifically, or virtue a
tennis. Some people are saying fantasy Star Online, which I think is good.
That's good. I'm gonna put it at least in the I do like
that because it's it's Dreamcast, and it's also like this important game, very
important to online gaming. The problem is that it meant the snooter kind of
yeah a little bit at the problem is it bothers me a bit that it
seems to like not matter a whole lot. Now I know that there are
Fantasy Star online games that people can play. It's like a shame that there's
some fancy Star online that's like one of the big online games. I think
they have one right now. PSO two is a thing not big anymore.
Well, they took forever getting it over here. Yeah, it was way
so late by the time we got on the West a little too late.
So I think that's where it loses points on importance. Well, what about
what about she? Shemy is very important? Is very important. That's sort
of a life sim mix with combat type. Yeah. Yeah, it's sorts
of like these games striving for realism. It was one of the first ones.
Some people really hate Shenmu. I'm not one of them. I still
like Shenmu and it's clearly a very important game, a very ambitious game.
What's your favorite of like the weird Dreamcast games, which which there are a
lot of, And when I think of Dreamcats as what I often think of,
Oh no, how weird you would say this is, but kind of
is. But I think the my answer to the what Dreamcast game would you
put on? There? In general is kind of a weird game as well,
is a very important like arcade game. It is Crazy Taxi. Crazy
Taxi makes sense to me, like it to this day. People think fondly
of Crazy Taxi and it was huge. It's coming back. It is too.
Yeah. I like sambad Ego a lot. I think it's hard for
me to argue that the wants the part of me wants to consider c Man
just because it is the weirdest one and that sort of epitomizes what that Dreamcast
era was about to me in some ways, but also how many people outside
of a v and viewers remembers you're probably not gonna play. I think.
I think Crazy taxiing Jets that Radio are similar in terms of like prestigious but
like real, but the different bearer Dreamcast games. Yeah, the difference there
is that just that Radio was almost like a beautiful moment in time, whereas
Crazy Taxi we said the words and suddenly the chazz going yeah, oh I
know that says something. Okay, So how about the kind of third party
era to me? The seen it comes to mind as yakas. I think
that's kind of kind of easy. It's almost at least one at this one.
Well, again, like I think, I think, I think on
Mount Rushware, especially unless there's some real circumstance, you kind of just go
with the first one. And I think there's a big, big argument to
be made for Yakuza Zero specifically, Yeah zero, people do like zero law,
and look, a lot of people came into the series with zero.
Yeah, I'm not and I'm not a big Uh doc is a guy yet
Uh so I could I have to defer a little bit here. Uh,
zero is does seem like because for a while we weren't even maybe getting all
the Yakuza games and uh like they were or they weren't getting translated. Zero
was when it seemed like it really started taking off, and then of course
much more so with seven. Uh but yeah, I could see zero being
the case. I do. There's a part of me that wish is I
could consider more Genesis ones and the one Genesis one I do want to consider.
Uh. Streets of H two just all time banger, sixteen bit era
game, still probably the best beat them up ever. I was just listening
to the soundtrack today on my record, but it's an all time great soundtrack.
The vibe that game immaculate. That video game music playlist I gave Jeff
that plays sometimes before shows. Yeah, I have some Streets Rage two music
on there because so good. That's that's where Expander is from, I believe,
and that's just no. Yeah, classic song, that's so good.
But you think Straets Race two over well for a moment rushmore? Yeah,
Yeah, I was gonna say over four, but yeah, definitely in terms
of my Yeah, I mean I Sika's involvement in Florida is like really like
it's mentally it's minimal. It's kind of weird. Yeah, which was probably
for the best in the long run with the way that game turned out.
Yeah, we'll see how good like the actual Super Sega back to New Streets
of Rage is gonna be. Because I am skeptical. Okay, what is
there anything from the Saturn era? I love the Saturn, don't get me
wrong. It's just like this anything to the most Saturn stuff that I think
of. It's not arcade ports in Japan. I noticed the ArKade ports that
did well. I think of Panzer Dragoon. That's what really mattered to me.
Those were the kind of prestige games of their time, even though they
were on real shooters. And then later yet the RPG, I'm not quite
sure if it's gonna if even that though, is going to make it on
a mount rushmore. No, I don't think so. And the game that
I would say from the Saturn also will not make it. I just want
to explain the case for it hypothetically. Soccer Awards is one of the most
important games of all time low key like Virtual Fighter. People don't know this,
but it was so influential on Japanese development. The combination of visual novel,
romance, dating sim stuff with combat. It's what got us to where
fire Arm blowm is today and blew Up you know, and so many of
our games I've done stuff like that. It is extremely influential game to developer,
but it doesn't necessarily hold down ports with the general audience. Now,
you wouldn't have Marvel Midnight Suns without Soccer Awards. Wars not exactly. Kind
of the longest running game. Also, as I like that game is all
the first games? Yeah, yeah, I definitely have a series there.
Yeah, there's like there's other second games that I love, like, you
know, I even like Knights. It probably can't happen, you know how
I feel about Shanoby three that you know, Shanoby one. Part of me
like that was a big early ark hit for them, and it is even
a master system hit for them. There's going to be a master system game,
which there won't be. Maybe it would be Shanoby one before we get
too far from the Arcade era though, Mike, I do have another favorite
of mine. I want to us out there for you. Sure. Super
monkey Ball, Yeah, super monkey Ball rules, and it's kind of the
other one from that third party era. Oh gosh, those games there was
it was their their machine with the Dole Banana controller before that though, before
it was a game. Yeah. I even thought about that when I was
doing the Arcade draft with Jeff Lett last week, like do I do super
monkey Ball because there was that Arcade version. Very iconic and not huge,
but very iconic. For sure. You see that and you don't forget it.
Yeah. Super monkey Ball too on GameCube was so much fun. Those
mini games are just an absolutely a great time. I'm excited for the new
Super monkey Ball. I'm always happy when to play those games. I'm not
quite sure if it's gonna make it because there's some stiff competition here now.
And to be clear, we're not we're not considering Atlas stuff at all here,
right WHOA. I mean, I didn't tell the podcast producers that,
and I think if a game came out, I will say it needs to
be a release from after Atlas was No, no, no, I don't
even disagree with that. Yeah, I disagree with that's all the same umbrella.
Yeah, I just don't think of them as Sega games. They are
so separated, like even now, even now that Sega always alas is this
deal super separated? So yeah, all right, where where we have so
few spots up for contention here? Yeah, I don't know, I'm just
I'm just explaining what the situation is. So all right, maybe we switch
over here and you see some outlist do all right? Yeah, okay,
you get kicked out, and I see some people in chat saying total war
maybe other people I just never been a total war. That's awesome. Well
that's also all those things were total war people associated with that's that was Sega.
It wasn't. Yeah, yeah it's true. Yeah, it's weird.
Why don't let's switch over. Let's take a look or should we take a
break right now before we do that? Actually, yeah, let's have a
little break. Let's take a quick break. It might go to the bathroom.
So let's let me right back. Everybody, We're going to hash out
the rest of this Mount Rushmore. Don't worry. Okay, all right,
we're back, Sean. Let's see what our discord community has to suggest here
for our Mount Rushmore. Okay, sounds goods turned off strong here with an
analysis. Yass Buckeroo says thirteen Sentinels, which I yeah, let's freaks.
I want to talk about later. I finally started eating the corn overlord.
Oh yeah, I want to chat about it. I'll see how you're feeling
about Since Samuel Dana Jackie g does say Shen Moon, we were talking about
that for a while there. Yeah, I do want to play Shen MoU
again. It's an interesting experience. It's a fun time. Goblin Queen here
says a Virtual Fighter five Ultimate Showdown, which I can be interpreted as one
of the Virtual Fighter games, but this is just the most recent and probably
most complete release. But yeah, one of the Virtual Fighter games. I
definitely think I heard were talking about. You know, I had a Saturn
pretty early, so we did play a lot of Virtual Fighter. But we
also got the thirty two X version of Virtual Fighter, which was not bad,
pretty shockingly right, Yeah, what the original there was some let's see
that was different than the Genesis one that was like just a side scol The
three X one was just Virtual Fighter with just like lowers, but it was
a three D fighting game. And then they mailed they mailed us Virtual Fighter
remix or whatever, because like the first version of it was so janky,
So that was awesome interesting. Yeah, uh b says Persona three Reload screaming.
Madden says Rome Total War for one of the Rome games. I guess
just in general, Beef Hammersy's Persona three, I promise we'll do a mount
Rushmore of Atlas at some point I did. I would get I got very
excited every time he said that new version of that line. Waiting for this.
Yeah, it's not quite the same though, it's not the same,
but it's you know, Ako was like the most different voice, but I
still liked it. Yeah, in the originally I've been waiting for this,
and he's like I've been waiting for that. He really is like I've been
waiting for this. Yeah, the delivery it is a lot better. It's
serious, like goes goes good. He would be would be on my Mount
Rushmore a Persona party members, how of that ma Rushmore boxers? What was
your uh what was your final party in Persona three beload? Uh? It
was Yukari because you gotta have a healer Mitsuru and Akihiko because okay, if
you yourself are the fire user which especially once you get into more powerful ones
like Seth at the end, it's very easy to do. Or you can
inherit it onto something like one of the other personas. Then you have a
good spread of elements as well as there's just a wombo combo where you Aqui,
Hiko and Mitsuru can raise your attack, lower the enemy's defense, and
just yeah, just get things popping off. It's great that I was what's
the name. I always forget the name of those spells because they are so
weird. Oh yeah, and there's like Tenta Raffu and so yeah, yeah,
I did a. I did Yukari and acha eco but I did,
I guess, and I never usually use like the physical attack one, but
I guess was very strong. It was fun doing that, Yeah, especially
once you online her. What did they even call them, like personality traits?
Yeah, she basically all of hers are just her tax are better.
It's like, all right, then let's go any plus with Yukari just healing
for free. Basically return doesn't matter if she's using HP AnyWho next ABC always
be clothing says, I'm assuming this is Yakaza is zero. I just know
it's Kiri. You uh, taking shirt off and showing his dragon tattoo,
and then eu Fey explicitly says Yakuza zero. So maybe if we do put
Yakuza game on there, maybe it is zero. Yeah makes sense. I
don't remember the full tattoo on zero. Isn't that the somes Kwami? It
might be one. Yeah, because the boxer for Yakuza one, which I
still have back there is that back dragon tax Oh fair point, fair point.
Yeah, it's all different hair cel too, okay. H s WSP
says socked a Hedgehog two. Interesting I had I had a poster of that
hanging in my room, but it was like from the back angle it was
good stuff. Nah. Nice, Yeah, it's good image. The robotnick
up there. Yeah, Freedom mclivery ball as this would be the first like
a dragon game over here. So Yakuza seven yeah, which there is an
argument to be made for that because a lot of people hopped in with like
a dragon as well. Yeah. I think it helped that it was kind
of a launch game for the new consoles. A lot of people definitely in
the switch to turn Base was nice and big for me because I just for
a variety of reasons can't really do subtitles. It was the first one since
the original PS two release of one to have an English dub. Yeah,
I remember, God, they weren't doing that. Yeah, and it was
annoying. Yeah yeah, which is Yeah, it's the only reason that the
series could come over here budget reasons. Breadfish does bring up Outrun, so
there you go. Love for Outrun. Outrun is a vibe of the Super
Scaler games. This is definitely the best one. Back when being able to
scale sprites was considered impressive. Uh villain mack here has this would be like
a dragon if in it well, which, yeah, in general, it's
hard to convince me that like games that are less than a year old can
be on a mountain rushmore but maybe right. But yeah, so just another
representative for Yakaza in general. Cherioki Blue says Streets of Race two shoe is
so good. Jarashi says, now I know this is yakas is zero because
the way they're dancing, I've seen that before. Tommy Pencil says Skies of
Arcadia that is very high on my my bucket list. My Piowa shame gotta
play some Skis of Arcadia. I played a bit of it back on the
day, but there's a lot more I gotta do. Yeah, I want
streamers. I watch actually used to speed run it, so I've seen a
DC it's by never play it myself. He Gante says Persona five, which
is this is the one I would give people. But if you really just
want to do zero, Alice, Actually, Sean, I think that's PERSONA
five Royale. I noticed that girl there. He's not in the original.
So first of all, you dorkis royal, not royale with cheese. But
PERSONA five in general was was post Perchase. So over four, I mean,
if I put one on there, I would bet you would be five.
Well, first of all, four wouldn't be eligible by the rule that
I said. That probably aren't doing anyway. Yeah, but us maybe we
bring up air. Probably not either way. Good game, Casual says Sonic
and knuckles like that emblem. Good emblem, Ali Mary Savesa. Cristal says
Space Channel five as Michael Space Michael. Yeah, SPA five is weird.
It's weird, but it's fun. Uh, it's good. It's good stuff.
I don't think it's quite nott rashmore from me, but it's good stuff.
Yeah, vanderl House's Kid Chameleon, K man want to like Kid Chameleon.
But it's uh, it's weird, and that's isn't that rumored to be
another one coming back? That's strange. KI might have been one of the
ones where they said, yeah, this wasn't announced, but it's a potential
one, weird one. I'm kind of mad. I'll be honest, I'm
gonna be madly a kid kimbleon before Echo, I'll just say, how dare
you? How fucking dare you? The rebirth Wall five, says Keanu Reeves,
is Shadow the Hedgehog. Yeah, yeah, I played Shout the Hedgehong
not too long ago. Look, there's definitely wor sonic games. I guess
there are, but it's just it's a fucking annoying game. No, people,
don't shut the fuck up the entire time you're playing. Yeah, it's
not a it's almost like twin Stick Shooter. It's weird. I don't love
it. Joy Z has a persona five that this is an all out attack.
Is this a royal character? Who is this person a spoiler? That's
who? That is? Just that Radio Future Yeah, or it might be
Jack grind Radio. I can't tell the difference. This is a well first
of all, they spelled out too, they spelled it. Well, there
you go. Then why do you fature? Chuco Bop says, yeah,
y man, that is taxi. What's what's the more more iconic song?
Sega song for you? Is it that? Or is it the Rolling Star?
Oh? Is this? I know it's not it's Saga specifically. Definitely.
I'm convinced the entire generation would not know the offspring if it wasn't for
Crazy Taxi. It's probably fair. Uh. Doctor Ryan says per soda for
Golden that definitely doesn't count, or does Golden count? I don't think so.
Golden on PC would but that's the only one, so I'm saying no,
the version does compound a surface. Kane says, this would be Outrun
Run to two thousands, out Run two, Yeah, out two, or
let's say outrun two. It's probably outrun are two and two thousand and six.
They're two different thing, they're similar. They're like Ridge Racers six and
seven. Kind of Yes, it's kind of like that. Okay, okay,
that's a good way of putting it. And this is a very game.
Oh it is. Yeah, I played it very good. I played
one of them very good. Johnny Boy does say, super monkey ball,
there you go, fantastic. Caleb El says Angry Birds Friends featuring Sonic Hedgehog.
And the bird doesn't even look angry there, it's smiling. I know.
Ready he lost his edge. No longer racist. It doesn't hate the
pig. That's right, that the entire movie was about racism. Jeus Christ
I forget and the weird bench j C says persona five Royal with cheese.
I like that cheese. Willow Davis says, rue the bats has already been
on one. Mount Rushmore's son Super Harman says Streets of Rage. Two.
There you go, love he Clink says the fancy Star Online branded gan Cube
keyboard controller. All right, all right, something I've learned from all of
these uh abount rusht wards or a thing is that if persona can be an
option, it's going to be a popular option. Yeah, of course it
is, dude. You know why because everyone knows bucket John. Everyone look
at John's here, bucket John. Hello, she had to make a cameo.
She had to bucket John. Uh cry Orris says, persona four mm
hmm. Vision forty nine says Crazy Taxi, Crazy Taxi. Oh yeah,
bring me back. Tim money Og says Yaka is a zero. Nice uh
In putting in here says Yaka is a zero. Matt the Rare Bondis says
I believe this is Yaka is a zero. Man lots of Yaka is a
zero. I love here. I got. I had to play that.
I have to play that. I started, I didn't finish it. I
uh, I'm not a huge fan of the beat him up yakazose actually interesting.
Okay, Yeah, but I'm I'm I liked like a dragon, and
I'm enjoying so much I might go back. Hammondo, Texas says Sonic spin
Ball. Look, I'm a Stillic spin Ball defender, but it has two
major problems. Won the frame rate, which for a Sonic game bad for
a pinball game. Yeah, you need a high frame rate. This thing
is chugging for some reason. And then two bad music, Like when you
think of that Sonic Gems style music, which is like real farty and harsh.
This is kind of the poster child for that shit. Yeah, but
I kind of love it anyways. I kind of love it anyways. Ooh,
here's my big Tony the Final Fantasy Guy says House of the Dead.
House of the Dead is good. All those games are good. How's that
one to two? Then how's the Dead three? The Shotgun one? And
how's the Dead four? The SMG one? Those are all super fun like
in games. Typing of the Dead also shout out that probably yeah, House
of That too is probably the big one for me if I had to pick
one of them, right, Adam Asleep says to Jam and Earl, and
I believe that specifically the sprites from planet are from a Funktron. The Tarija
won two, which is the correct answer actually is a thank you, Adam
Juice has I believe this would be Sonic Adventure two? This would be yes,
yes, we have the power of Yeah, I see the soap choose
yep, but Sonic Adventure too, Yeah, Weisman says a doctor. Robotics
mean being machine. I do like these meat being machine. It's just poo
pyo, but I do like it. Warden Cliff has an answer that I
will have expected from Screaming Mad in ESPN NFL two K five. Yeah.
Yeah, this was a basic Yeah, this is those two K games.
That everybody liked, basically the last one ever. I think, yeah,
I did like these because they were a little arcadie while still being a more
football sim I believe this was the one that was twenty bucks. Yeah,
I think so. Jesus Christ. Klaus Raynor has a seaman or maybe it's
a Mike man as we can see, Mike Mike. It's a recent picture.
I have a go t it's on man, everybody. I already almost
got the full beer back, so enjoy the go to while you can.
Everybody, it's been a week. Uh and then the last one here for
now our team bick says day till No. Okay, here's what I'm actually,
here's what I'm thinking. I think absolutely Neuza zero. Yeah, based
on what everyone says, based on us wanting to put yacas on in there
somewhere. I do want to say, I don't think anyone said this outside.
I just saw Kevin saying the chat Puyo, Puyo, play your play
out. Maybe yeah it's probably not, but probably well shortlist. At least
you have no love for columns. Columns. I think it's the game that
was everywhere. I don't care about coms. Yeah, I looked at them.
I don't either. There was also, uh, clearly, you know
what, there's a lot of crazy Taxi love I think would be that even
more so than Fantasy stuse there's no fancy Star on linemages. I think that
instead of fancy Star on line should be the Dreamcast kind of entry. I
agree, And that's that's yeah, it just is too iconic. Okay,
So that would mean okay, so let's probably moving Daytona out right well as
yeah, I mean, because some people did say Daytona like, oh maybe,
but we already have one card game and I know it's very different,
but I'll say this, I was. I was shocked, like seemingly nobody
else brought a Bruti Fighter. Yeah, but more streets of reach too.
We way more streets of each too than Virtual Fighter. Despite my influence Despike
Christians influence, not a lot of fighting game fans out there, audience,
I know, but there is a part it's like, oh, then we
should do streets of each two instead, But because two also does matter a
lot, it does, it does. That's a ritual fighter again. There
is something about those early three D games that I do think should be represented.
Fighter also represents the Saturn era as well, like it does both at
the same time. So okay, let's go. Let's go down the line
here real quick, because shen MoU, I don't think hangs probably not enough.
No, I'll short list it, but nah, I don't think so
we'll skip Strasa Rage, come back to it. Super Monkey Ball I'm crazy
Taxi fills that niche right right, And also like Yakuza Zero is representing that
third party era better for me, right, SOAKA Adventure, we know we
don't need the two Sonic games. No, and then yeah, Pso and
Daytonio say so, it would be I think at this point either Streetza Rage
two or Virtual a Fighter. And to be clear, I like Streets of
Rage too more than Virtues Fighter my favorite games. I just think in this
Mountain rushmore setting, I think having one of their early three D games and
something that kind of represents that Saturn era a bit, but the three D
ArKade thing is more important to me. I think Virtual Fighter is probably there,
you know, I kind of want to have a Virtua game in there.
If it's not gonna be racing or cop or tennis, I kind of
Fighter makes the most sense to me. Yeah, me and Christian were talking
about this while you were on the break. But just the virtual line of
games was so important. I think. I think I said before, but
I was a very old when I realized it was Virtua and there is no
L. I think I just always like Phantom saw the L. I just
assumed there was. It was visual virtual on is the only one and the
rest of Ratua. Yeah, it's very weird, messed up. But if
this is it right now, Sonic the Hedgehog, Yakuza Zero, Crazy Taxi
and Virtual Fighter, that seems really good to me. It does. I'm
just I'm mulling it over, and I think it. I don't think there's
a huge case for anything else. Are we sure it's Sonic one. I
think that's one. That's the one thing. I'm gonna put my foot down
a little bit. I think it should be Sonic one. Okay, Yeah,
because I'm not I'm not gonna debate that one too much because in terms
of being a mount Rushmore, Yeah, I think that feels right. So
and then yeah, I think that feels good song with the hashog Yakaza Zero
Crazy Taxi for sure. You know, I'll even hang on hang on.
Just to make it maybe a little more clear, let me chronologically, I
think we have basically the four major eras of segasor represent we have. Yeah,
Sonic is the Genesis, Virtual Fighter is transitioned to three D, Crazy
Taxi was dreamcast into third party, and then Yakasa zero is maybe their most
beloved modern game. It makes a lot of sense. I am pretty happy
with this. All right, look at ship at ik. We're done here,
all right, fantastic. I'm going to tweet this out while we take
a little break. We'll come back reading more super chats and talk about what
you've been playing. Sounds good, and we're back. Actually, yeah,
what we should do here is talk about what we've been playing, Sean,
if you don't mind me going first. I am excited because I got to
play a little bit of a World of Warcraft, the war within the next
expansion. I got to I had an early peak at the alpha for it,
so that was fun. I got to play a little bit like the
kind of intro experience and basically run around the first zone, do the major
quests there, but get to see some of the big new features in the
game, but just kind of like in a grand flavor thing. The whole
thing is very dwarf focused, and I like the dwarves every you know,
usually the dwarves get like a quest line or a zone, or there's like
one character who matters, but then it's like humans and L's human and L's
orcs orgs human, Elves undead, and here it's just like all dwarves all
the time. And I'm like, yeah, my first World of Workout character
was a dwarf hunter and I've made a lot since then, but I still
think about that dwarf Hunter all the time. Now, when you say that,
do you mean it's like the Elason in fourteen in Heaven's Word, where
it's just like they're the featured race of the expansion, or is does it
run deeper in that? It kind of runs deeper than that. It's not
even because there's like different factions of DAWs, and we're kind of like meeting
a new one, but there's a lot of other like normal Drawers and Dark
Iron Jaws is another faction. Because even if fourteen in Heaven's Ward, in
fourteen, in general, racial identity is not too much of a thing.
You don't meet characters who really talk a lot about like their they're a lesson
Pride or their La la fel like, right, it's all city state base.
It's more about where you're from than what you are, which is which
sounds beautiful when I say it like that, but it's not that much of
a distinction, honestly. But like some of the some of the big features
here, like there's Hero Talents basically a new talent tree a top of the
normal one where you kind of get to further specialize your character class. So
you know, I was, I was a paladin, and like my two
choices were one that really focused on my kind of hammer based another one that
was really about my kind of holy fire and light abilities. So I just
like getting to like kind of pick and choose that flavor aspect of a little
bit more and kind of carving out a better identity. And then you know,
it's all that progression, right, You get to look forward to filling
out that talent tree and getting all these new skills as you're doing it.
Sure, and then there's also like this thing called dells, which are kind
of mini dungeons basically, And I got to do one of those and run
around and I was, you know, rescuing dwarves. This is supposed to
like eventually be some form of endgame content. I'm not sure how it expands,
but I'm curious to see. But basically I was. I was pretty
impressed. I am kind of really in the mood to get back into World
Warcraft. They somehow brought that game back into a really good spot. There
are a ton of players, and they all generally seem pretty happy. It's
rough because I also want to play Foul Fantasy fourteen because it has an expansion
coming up even sooner with Dontri So that's why I'm glad. Let's think the
rest of the year might be a little slower because I kind of just want
to play these mmo a lot. Dude. This is year of the RPG.
Man. I'm so happy. There's so many that have come out between
like A Dragon and Persona and Unicorn Overlord, Dragon's Dogma, we got the
MMO expansions. It's just a good time to be an RPG fan. Man.
And I started Unicorn Overlord Hey a couple hours into that. So far
I really like it nice, of course, beautiful, all vanilla where games
are, but and I just I love the way that these games. Look,
I love that it is a lot like Firemum, but different right,
It is a different combat system, so it feels a bit fresh and unlike
Fireroom. And I kind of appreciate this about this game. Not that I
dislike silly games, and there have been some very silly games lately. This
game is taking itself as seriously as a heart attack. Oh it does,
it does, right, I personally think, to his detriment a little bit,
I could see that. I could see how that could be a sticking
play for some people. But at least at a couple hours in and maybe
by our ten or twenty or thirty it'll become overbearing. But at least right
now, I'm kind of like, yeah, I'm glad that this is being
played dead seriously. There's no like cheap jokes. There's you know, uh,
there's a little fan service, I'll say, mostly with the jiggle faces.
Yeah, more half of it. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm playing
on Switch and it looks very good on Switch. It's a very nice Switch
game. That's why I'm playing on too. I mentioned this on the BombCast.
I've temporarily shelved it while I play some Marti stuff. But yeah,
I definitely plan to go back because even if it's so, where I come
from is I think it's a bit busy, is what the conclusion I came
to where not on that has too much going on, but it's drawing from
so many different places that I think it I think it struggles a little bit
to have an idady of what it's trying to be. I saw some other
people talking about it and saying the same thing. It feels a little unfocused,
but it is unique, and I'll give it points for that. I
think maybe if I keep going, the tactics will just click more into place.
Because as I kept playing, I did like the tactics more and more.
I did like the story less and less because it is so just mcguffin
driven. Sure, yeah, I can understand why Jeff is in the spot
where he's in, kind of like you guys did with a fire Emblem engage,
where hey, the story isn't great and so maybe I'm skipping elements of
it, but the combat, the combat's real good, and so it feels
really so much of it is that kind of a gambit based thing where if
so, then do this. And Fromphacy twelve was a formulative game for me,
so I am always into that kind of kind of system. Yeah,
I'm curious to see what I'll think about after I spent a good amount of
time. I can't believe how generous the demo is, because again, I
play for like a couple hours, and it's like you could still play for
four hours. Man, Okay, Banks, thanks, I guess are you
sure? Like I'm good? I know if I like this game or not.
Now you could make me buy it right now. But yeah, I'll
keep playing for I guess Cayli square Enix. They give you a big demo
of a long RPG. I guess yeah. Okay, can't complain there.
How about you? What have you been playing, Mike? Oh no,
I've been playing games I can't talk about yet. Wow. Look at you.
Wow, Oh my goodness, you get to say the thing wow,
Oh my gosh. In case people don't pay attention to the BombCast that,
I'll give you something with I've been playing Hell Divers two with friends. That's
gone into the weekly rotation alongside our Tech and eight Sessions and everything. Uh.
Hell Divers too is just fun, man, It's just fun, like
dumb fun. A lot of the time. Too, and I love that,
uh you have you kind of just had to figure things out sometimes and
once you do and certain things click, Like I mentioned having a figure out
that you need to use the hell bomb a stratum that is situational in order
to blow up a objective that is a demolition space. I think that really
fun and that's cool. And when just the emerging gameplay of I is still
one of my favorites is me and my friends walk you along and I say,
wait, is that mine? And then it blows out my friend because
he didn't see it. And god, the the natural humor mixed with the
over the top, you know, for liberty, for democracy, like,
it's very fun. It's fun. It's every time I play it, I
have a great time. I really want to play even more of it,
and I kind of have to maybe get that going with my brothers really established.
Like Monday night as Hell Divers night. The nice thing is that's not
like the game's going anywhere. It's it hasn't fizzled out like you know,
like you know, Power Old and the finals kind of felt like flavors of
the week a little bit. Hell Diver seems like it's going to have a
much longer tale than that. Yeah, so hell Divers too. Great game.
Great game. And then I mentioned my little project of Red Viper,
the Virtual Boy emulator on just a cool concept. I love that. I
love that fans are doing this and bringing back old weird systems in fun new
ways. We had our zet a little bit earlier this year, bringing back
the CD I feel, but without a significantly better playing game. And then
you had this where the Virtual Boy was just a huge failure easily. Nintendo's
were a system and the fact that someone would go out their way to preserve
that experience, and it works really nicely on three DS once you know it.
You know, just that three D experience, you know, looking through
the goggles of a Virtual Boy translates super well to that three D screen.
I have a new three DSXLS with the eye tracking and everything. It just
works perfectly. I was playing even last night. I even played a little
bit more Warrior and Virtual Boy. Just a fun time. And most of
those games are bad, but you know, I have a couple of games
I can tinker with a little bit. It scratches like the techie itch in
me alongside having something new to play. So that's been a fun little project.
It makes me want to like dig up my hack to three DS and
do more with it. Probably is like it's like, well, and I'm
playing Unicorn Overlord, so that's like the next couple months of nighttime game time
spoken for. But you know, you know, I was spoiled. I
had, I had a virtual boy, so I have affinity for it.
I don't know what happened to it. Uh, Like most things, I
eventually will find again in some box or nothing. I have not seen the
virtual Boy in probably thirty years now, so my parents must have just gotten
rid of that at some point, probably saw the new story about it giving
people eye cancer or what. Yeah. The blinding red, which, by
the way, is a cool feature of red viper everyone is that you can
change the color from red to anything else on the RGB spectrum. You want
some Oh, hear that? Hear that bucket? John, we can make
a green bucket. Ye, we can make a green let's go bucket.
Yeah, I'll excited, are albably gonna be when we see the first persona
three thing? And is that freaking green? And there there's the green though
the one four, two, two, three, three, five and six.
I'm just gonna be popping off. Man, it's gonna be great.
Do you real quick here at the at the for Persona six, do you
want college in cetifigh school and do you think it'll be college and set of
high school? Okay? I want college because first of all, there's elements
of Persona that fly in Japan where that game is made for late teens,
that are weird. When it's an M rate game. You want to feel
more comfortable about dating the girls in the game, feel more comfory with it.
It'll be cool. Also, just you know they're going to play up
a fan service scene or something. Yes, right exactly, it just doesn't
translate as well. But also just you know, playing infinite wealth and having
adults deal with adult issues as much as you can when you're dealing with you
know, a crime drama. Yeah, I would like to see some slightly
more mature stuff come up, and you know, having say two people who
are ex'es or something navigate working together. Something that's that's kind of thing that
you don't get as much in Persona but can't be really cool if you have
something more like a college saying or something. So yeah, I would like
it for it to be that, especially playing Persona three again and like you
know, you're in a literal dorm, right, which like get in a
US perspective, that's something we associate more of college anyways. It's like,
yeah, like I like that vibe. You know, just have the classes
be you know, more college classes and some of that stuff. It's fine.
I mean I'm almost a little surprised that they because I guess Ken is
the one thing that like straight as we're fun, they could localize that in
the US. It's just yeah, this is a college like and it just
wouldn't have been weird. Yeah, but I do I think it will be
as a different story and probably not because they they still make those games for
Japan, and I mean they could go wildly different and they could try to
go global. That's what Sega as a company's trying to do. And as
we mentioned, you know, they they own Atlas, and even if Atlas
is pretty independent, they can't do their own thing whatever. Maybe to reach
a more global market. Yeah, they do mix it up. But I
do think that the teenage centric storylines and everything are still so popular. And
again I found this out relatively recently. The game is rated a little bit
lower in Japan. So that's why it is. You know, it's four
teenagers specifically, rare that adults, which you know slapped with the AM rating
here. It's a little bit different, so I think I think they will
still do a high school story, but yeah, it would be cool to
see something else. Even they tried it with Soul Hackers, which I I
nelady got around to playing Soul Hackers too, because it came out a bad
time for me with whatever I was playing. Now remember kind of reviews to
us, I felt like something I didn't need to play. Yeah, so
I just didn't feel the need to dive into it right away. But that
also dealt with you know, adults doing adult stuff, so yeah, who
knows. Nice. I mean, I think that's appeal with like a dragon
for a lot of people, right, it is definitely it's weird how like
college specifically, I feel like I don't see a whole lot of like people
in college and Japanese media. Maybe I'm not saying they do do things a
little bit differently, uh there. And also like ages are a little bit
different. Yeah I can tell you so much about that, but yeah,
it is just viewed a little bit differently rare than us. Just you know,
you go directly into college, like your state college, and it's almost
free of like public schooling, and there are things are seeing a little different
there without entrance exams and whatnot. So that's like, that's why you heard
like Mitsuru and Akihiko talking about so much in three and whatnot. They had
like big like tests to take them here, all them exactly before we go.
I just super quick looping back to the three DSK thing, Mike.
I want to let you know, three DS like downloading stuff and three desks
has become so easy nowadays. I don't mean the Jeff Grub method of downloading
things to your three das from the file manager app. You can now just
like scan QR codes. And there is a program called Universal Updater where they
just basically made a home brew shop where just everyone dumps all their homebrew applications
and they're soon just fire up this home brews shop and download stuff like red
Viper and just you know, have all these fun little fan PRIs I should
mess around with. So if you ever want to dig out the three D
the drawers, yeah, I really do. So you know, funny like
what I really want to do is play between worlds again, honestly, but
there's so much. There's so much. We got a couple of super tests
here we have to read before we get out of here. The Rochi,
this is about our Mount Rushmore says, yes, Mike, you do need
to play Yakaza zero. I'll make that happen eventually, and then I'm sure
I'll like it. Uh. Then that boy Jerry says, you didn't mention
Burning Rangers even once. Hey, look, if it was the Mount Rushmore
of songs from Sega game, especially lyrical songs from Sega games, then uh,
that Burning Rangers song has no business being so good with that ridiculous saxophone
solo sitting shoulder to shoulder with Daytona right there right well in Japan is the
same vocalist. But the English version is actually very good. I actually prefer
that version so nice. Uh Oh. The Rochi said they should set Persona
six in Ohio. You know it's a stupid but when I was, like
when I was younger, but before Persona five came out, I like imagined
it was a big twist would be that it was sending the USA and it
would be like persona USA, but the S would be a five huh oh,
my five A. I don't know why I always visioned it like that,
like that's what they're gonna do. Absolutely, of course that's not what
they did, but it made sense to me for some reason. I think
I just thought it was really clever the U five A thing, which it's
not that clever. Sean, Mike you so much. That was a ton
of fun. Really appreciate you stepping in covering for Jeff, looking up for
the kiddos, those good stuff. Yeah. Always always fun when I get
to fill in for one of you guys. Always happy to do it.
All right, I'm gonna start playing the music here what you want here,
but uh, any anything you think people should check out, Sean, I
mean this speaks for you me and Jeff. You know, go check out
our stuff during the day over at Giant Bomb or doing some fun stuff there.
Got more content warning coming up tomorrow and on professional Fridays, so that's
gonna be fun. We're good. Try to get in as many people as
possible so you might see me, Jeff and Mike all in there. Might
have to do some modding or something and try to figure out that your player
account. But yep, and then we're all three of us were on the
BombCast this week too, so go check those out if you like what we're
doing over here. Yeah, and please make sure you check out the new
voicemail dump Truck with Chef reactions. That was real good time. That was
reaction learning about my shenanigans, but mostly Dan's shenanigans was incredible. Yeah,
if you're if you're a game SPP who doesn't watch the Giant bomb stuff we
do all the time, the one thing you need to watch from this week
is Mike on Voicemail dunk Tripe. That was just so funny human Dan explaining
weird food Diggs, those former professional chef awesome. It was incredible. But
then, though, are you on anything tomorrow? Well, like I said,
the content warning upf is gonna be a big thing here. Yeah,
okay, content warning. Maybe we'll see we'll see why we can work out
here. Me and Jeff are supposed to get this up tonight, so well
let's see what happens. They're doing bombcasts instead of bomb instead of revengeance tomorrow,
right, Giant Power bombast BombCast. Yeah, yeah, podcast is not
descriptive enough excuse me. So I think, yeah, I think that's that's
happening. And they'll, you know, they'll they'll talk about their wrestling and
all that stuff. Are you watching any more wrestling? Now you're surrounded by
so many wrestling fucos. I might I might start watching stardom because janma,
oh yeah, you become the stardom corresponding Yeah, brother, yeah, for
the I've never seen a second of start. I used to be a new
Japan guy, and I kind of missed that for myself because it did make
me feel pretentious, and I kind of enjoyed that, like watching just a
w's not all that pretentious anymore. All Right, thank you so much,
everybody. We appreciate We'll see you later. Bye. You're starting to talk
for real. I don't get horny. I stay horny. Hm hmm,
all right, we're on a break all right, we can just go to
it. I'll read them. Yeah, I got all right, break time.
I was about to say one, but because we are in this,
I'm talking to you people. And when when you with you people, I
mean you people, the gringos. But I remember, like the biggest sega
game, like in Argentina was a virtual soccer or like a virtual striker.
I think he was. He was that did. Yeah, I think that
game was pretty pretty big, of course, not that. I mean there's
a lot of games that I really liked that I would like to put them
list, but yeah, definitely won't and up here because I don't think they
hold the importance anymore. Yeah, but I remember like like the first actual
like football game ever, like every other game they came out before that,
it was like these weird like tiny dudes in a green background, just like
kicking a white square and that's it. It wasn't like it, Well,
when did that game come out? We're a Striker? Oh, I don't
know. I was like seventh let me let me look it up. Striker,
Yes, take a look. Oh I was. I was gonna make
a joke about Mega Man's Soccer. But that's the game before that, I
believe. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I've never I've never paid much attention
to that's interesting. Interesting. Yes, I remember them pretty well, I
personally from so much of like the so much of the VIRTUEA series. You
know that that's our branding that Sega had with Fighter and everything. Yeah,
it's weird because some games were Virtua and some other games were virtual with the
L at the M and I was like, well, I think it was
just virtual on the met game. I think that was the only one.
I think everything else is virtue just the Oh, you're right, you're right.
VI Striker is without the I thought it was like, yeah, uh,
it's confusing because they mixed you up that one time. Wait, what
the hell Sonic was in Virtual Striker three? Oh yeah, they Saga Team.
They had a bunch of like fake names on it. Yeah, let's
do it, break Arena. Okay, cool, cool, Yeah, that's
open up, all right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I
wonder how much you're gonna get chilled about this. I'm sure people, you
know, especially I bet other people will be like, what about Atlas Kings?
And then yeah, I get it? But no, you did you?
Did you tweet it? I'm tweeting it soon. I'm saving this,
Okay, I could I could add no Atlas. Oh you know what?
You on a second, I have to look at to take a better screenshot,
don't. I don't worry about adding no at lists. People want to
yell at me. Won't be the first time, uh, won't be the
first time. More more more interactions for you. That's true. That's that's
why Jeff does it spoiler. Wait a second, Oh, that's why.
That's why I'm doing it wrong. Okay, you're doing it wrong. It
