1
00:00:05,599 --> 00:00:27,160
Man silent school. He just kept
going. Today it's the Internet. You're

2
00:00:27,199 --> 00:00:30,519
busy, let's do this. Welcome
to the Game Mess Deicides podcast. This

3
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,799
is the podcast where we decide everything
about the world of video games so you

4
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,679
never have to think for yourself.
I'm your host Jeff Broben. With me

5
00:00:37,079 --> 00:00:47,280
is Mike Mannaughty today's episode PS fives
are slimming down and smoke. Who where

6
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,439
there's fire, there might be smoke. But first, Mike, how are

7
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:57,560
you doing? Pretty good? I've
assembled this gamer shelf, which I guess

8
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:03,000
it's just a bookshelf right but it
has mom My Game Cuban original Xbox games

9
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,319
on it right now, it's some
other fun things. So nice to finally

10
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,480
put that thing together and have that
behind me. There you go. Yeah,

11
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:11,480
you show the people. Trying to
show the people, but I click

12
00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:15,280
on you and then it moves me, so my camera for a second.

13
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,439
Sorry, Uh, there you go? But um yeah, it's I had

14
00:01:19,519 --> 00:01:22,640
like just stacks of these games before, so it's nice to finally have these

15
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,400
on a shelf. That's that's something
very happy for you. I um,

16
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,040
I want to like keep getting I
want to keep fixing up my place.

17
00:01:30,079 --> 00:01:34,159
I did actually because it was July
fourth, and apparently that's the big like

18
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:40,200
furniture sale weekend thing. I did
buy a recliner for my my gaming zone,

19
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:45,359
my gaming area. Oh so that'll
be here and probably like next week.

20
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,439
And I'm very excited about it because
that I got like a little hammocky

21
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,599
like chair thing and it's not very
comfortable the kids sitting in it. It's

22
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,799
fine for them, but I want
to move that over here because I didn't

23
00:01:55,799 --> 00:01:57,640
have it when you it's not good
for the adult push exactly. You when

24
00:01:57,799 --> 00:02:00,400
when you guys were over, when
you and Dan came over to watch Commando,

25
00:02:00,959 --> 00:02:04,239
I had the couch. I brought
the couch over here and that was

26
00:02:04,319 --> 00:02:07,319
great. I thought about leaving it, but it's like that couch needs to

27
00:02:07,319 --> 00:02:08,759
be in the other room for when
like Grandma's over and needs a place to

28
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:12,039
see. Yeah, that's fine,
so you know, ask you for you

29
00:02:12,039 --> 00:02:14,479
guys. I always hate being the
middle couch person. I don't know what

30
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,199
to do with my arms, so
I was just crossing them the entire time.

31
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,960
You can watch that video, just
kind of like crossing my arms of

32
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:22,759
fidgetings. I don't know what to
do with my arms when I'm the middle

33
00:02:22,759 --> 00:02:25,120
couch person cut them off. We
can use some things, yeah, pie,

34
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:30,080
Yeah, become Jack's. Yeah,
become Jack's. Just that would be

35
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:34,080
kind of convenient if you could just
like take your arms off at night and

36
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,680
go to sleep. Yeah, they
are a pain in the butt these days

37
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,719
at beutty by time. Yeah,
they're always fung asleep like I came in

38
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,000
sleep on my one side anymore.
Like it's kind of like falls asleep or

39
00:02:44,039 --> 00:02:47,840
hurts, probably being an overweight issue
kind of thing. But still, yeah,

40
00:02:47,879 --> 00:02:51,520
it's a pain in the butt.
Still it is h Thank you for

53
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,759
I think I will do that sometime. I'm deally gonna do it by this

54
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,719
weekend. I might just like pull
the trigger on it and do it out

55
00:03:40,759 --> 00:03:44,120
of nowhere. So keep an eye
on the discord if you really want to

participate sometimes. Yeah, it's just
kind of I'm just kind of fitting in

57
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,719
where where I can. Might I
think I also might do this one live

58
00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:54,280
to both YouTube and Twitch. But
if you are you can only ask a

59
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:59,759
question if you're if you're in the
private channels, if you are podcast producers,

60
00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:02,039
this might be a special one.
We do live the riff raff out.

61
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,639
We're gonna keep the riff raff route
out. That's exactly That's our big

62
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:09,400
thing here is we just don't we
really hate riffing half Yeah, yeah,

63
00:04:09,439 --> 00:04:13,039
that's exactly what it is. Uh, mikes, some stuff happened this week.

64
00:04:13,039 --> 00:04:15,879
It's it is still like technically a
short week. It's like a holiday

65
00:04:15,879 --> 00:04:16,879
week, so I think a lot
of people have taken it off in the

66
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:20,199
video game industry. I was putting
together the news for gamess Mornings today and

67
00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:25,199
there wasn't a lot happening, but
there are some headlines that I'd like to

68
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,800
read. You. Are you ready
for this week's big topics? Mikey ready?

69
00:04:29,319 --> 00:04:32,839
The PS five Slim is expected later
this year by everyone, including Microsoft,

70
00:04:32,959 --> 00:04:35,480
who in their FTC file ins We're
like, hey, we expect the

71
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:41,040
PS five Slim to launch for four
hundred dollars later this year. That thing

72
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,959
probably is real, probably is happening. I think it just kind of makes

73
00:04:44,959 --> 00:04:47,600
a lot of sense that we would
get a Slim by now. The good

74
00:04:47,639 --> 00:04:53,959
news for mister Michael Manati is apparently
it is going to keep mostly the same

75
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,240
design of the PS five, just
be actually smaller. How does that make

76
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,120
you feel good? And I hope, I hope all the people there with

77
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:05,279
bad esthetic opinions continue to cry about
it. They're really upset. They will.

78
00:05:05,959 --> 00:05:12,279
Yeah, I hope they go and
huddle their five hundred boring black boxes

79
00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:15,879
that all of their entertainment machines look
like now and get out. Yeah.

80
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,680
Too bad that we actually have one
console that decided to have a little bit

81
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:26,279
of fun, almost like it's met
for playing video games. I have been

82
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,959
like looking for VCRs because there I
have a fanful of tapes I want to

83
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,920
watch and digitize and stuff, and
actually need a VCR to do that.

84
00:05:32,639 --> 00:05:36,240
They're expensive on Amazon, obviously you
got to get them used. So but

85
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,240
I was on Amazon, I saw
a couple that were like, oh,

86
00:05:39,319 --> 00:05:41,439
this one's like cool and purple.
I wish I would have had a cool

87
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:46,199
purple VHS player when I was when
I was younger, but all we had

88
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,680
ever were the boring black boxes.
Maybe occasionally they'd be silver or gray,

89
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:55,279
but usually it was boring black.
So I was I'm with you. I

90
00:05:55,759 --> 00:05:58,680
like that the PS five is interesting
looking, and I want them to maintain

91
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,560
that. I think they probably will. I think they believe in their design

92
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,279
in the way a lot of their
fans do not. I don't know.

93
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,800
Yeah, I think you're right.
I mean, look, it's you know,

94
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,279
obviously some people are gonna complain about
nobody's I don't think there's anybody who's

95
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,040
not going to buy one because I
think it's ugly anyways, So why bother

96
00:06:15,199 --> 00:06:18,839
redesigning something if you know it's working, but also it is a chance for

97
00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:23,160
them to maybe I mean, hey, one of the big problems that people

98
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,519
do have it with it is just
that it's too big. So if it's

99
00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:30,399
a slim, just making it smaller, but maybe keeping kind of that those

100
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,639
curves and whatnot, that will make
it more palatable for some people. That

101
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,879
four hundred dollar price tag sounds a
bit strange to me. I don't know,

102
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:42,079
what do you think, Yeah,
that seems pretty low, because what

103
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,720
it's still five hundred right now,
right fifty everywhere except for the United States

104
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,759
for the most part, and then
in the United States you pretty much have

105
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:55,519
to get version that comes with a
game. So five fifty is their target

106
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:00,360
price that they all they launched it
at five hundred and increase the price.

107
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,879
So the idea of them giving back
up not just that ground, then a

108
00:07:02,879 --> 00:07:06,120
whole bunch more now to be fair, PS Slim, PS five slim is

109
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,199
not going to have a disk drive. That's the reporting makes a lot of

110
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:14,920
sense. They seem to be happily
moving away from physical media, or like

111
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:18,040
or encouraging people move away from physical
media, and then when those freaks come

112
00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:20,920
by and say, hey, I
love my discs, they're like here,

113
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,040
we'll sell you a separate disk drive
that you can connect your PS five slim.

114
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,800
Now that that in mind, I
like a four hundred dollar price tag

115
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,160
makes some sense, but it doesn't
make a ton of sense if that is

116
00:07:31,399 --> 00:07:35,560
truly going to replace the PS five
and the PS five digital, because that

117
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,199
is also the reporting that this will
be the one model of PS five going

118
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:46,560
forward until we get maybe a pro
next year. Man, that's so I

119
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,319
don't know. I'm just kind of
stuck on the only actual model of the

120
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:54,279
PLACE five is not going to have
a disk drive by default. I mean,

121
00:07:54,279 --> 00:07:57,160
we'll see what that actually looks like
in reality, because you never they

122
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,560
might still keep manufacturing the five hundred
dollars destroy and keep that on store shelves

123
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,920
longer than we think. But that
is the reporting right now. So I

124
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:07,319
think we're going to get a lot
more of like video because, like I

125
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,319
still magic places like Walmart and whatnot
are going to sell video games quote unquote,

126
00:08:11,319 --> 00:08:15,399
I wanted we're to be getting a
lot more of codes and boxes or

127
00:08:15,439 --> 00:08:20,959
things like that. Probably maybe I
think that's because you know, the idea

128
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,240
of going to a store and buying
a physical version. I know a lot

129
00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:26,480
of people do appreciate that, and
they they want to resell their games and

130
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,480
all that stuff. But for a
lot of people, it just comes down

131
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,480
to a lot of people, not
most people, but a lot of people

132
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,200
going to a store is easier and
they like it better than go in online.

133
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,200
Lot a lot of people still buy
stuff with cash theacier just to go

134
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,159
into a store and buy the thing
you want. And if that thing is

135
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:46,200
just a disc and you can't use
it on your PS five going forward,

136
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,240
and that's the you know, the
PS five you could find, I suppose

137
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,759
that might encourage you to want to
go get the disk drive. I don't

138
00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:54,600
think that's what Sony is actually trying
to encourage you to do. I think

139
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,759
they are trying to get you to
go all digital so that you can't sell

140
00:08:56,799 --> 00:08:58,840
your games and you are stuck with
them and stuff like that. So,

141
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,519
yeah, how much does the disc
Playstition five costs right now? Four hundred

142
00:09:03,519 --> 00:09:07,879
dollars? That is four hundred you
know what I think now that I think

143
00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:11,519
about, they might have increased the
price for that fifty dollars as well in

144
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,759
a lot of territories. I can't
remember. The reason I can't remember is

145
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,639
that thing is. I mean,
listen, I got one, but it

146
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,320
took me months to track one down. Um that's the version I have of

147
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,879
the PS five after I sold my
game, my PS five original to my

148
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,440
nephew. Um I so it took
me a long time to track that down.

149
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,799
I really don't think that PS five
digital editions are something that they're making

150
00:09:33,799 --> 00:09:35,480
a lot of. Like maybe ten
percent of the PS five's in the world

151
00:09:35,519 --> 00:09:39,480
are the are the digital editions.
So the pricing of that almost doesn't factor

152
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:43,840
into this the arithmetic, really,
but that is what it costs right now

153
00:09:43,879 --> 00:09:46,159
if you were to, you know, actually be confronted with one in a

154
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,519
store. Okay, well that's not
now. I'm like, so like now,

155
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,759
these two things almost don't seem lining
up to me, Like they're not

156
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,360
selling early as many of the discs
version. They're also not making that many

157
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,960
as Really, that's what it is. That's the that's the real factor there.

158
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,399
They probably would have sold a lot
more. I think they still would

159
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,840
have sold more overall of the PS
five disc version. I think that's still

160
00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:11,399
like the kind of people who are
showing up to get a PS five in

161
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,799
these first few years, those are
going to be the ones that want the

162
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,000
disks. So yes, so with
this, uh you think this is going

163
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,240
to come out? This place?
Should five slim? Like what like right

164
00:10:20,279 --> 00:10:22,840
around Spider Man two or just kind
of right before a holiday? I know,

165
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,600
yeah, Spider Man two. Yes, I think it comes to that

166
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:28,639
same week probably, So that back
to the question, Mike, when do

167
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:33,399
they announce this thing? They're gonna
have to do it soon, right,

168
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:37,399
and I want to win and where
I know when we were all kind of

169
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,919
underwhelmed by there's place they should showcase
from a month or so back, we

170
00:10:41,919 --> 00:10:43,519
were all wonder rings they're going to
be another one of those, right,

171
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,120
and uh, maybe maybe there's going
to be something where they can announce this

172
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:54,919
and maybe actually do announce a few
things to look forward to beyond Spider Man,

173
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,960
right, because we didn't really get
a whole lot of that. And

174
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,639
hey, it's great that Spider Man's
coming. We're all very excited. But

175
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,200
now that that's soon, mom,
fancy sixteen has happened, we do have

176
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:09,159
some stuff like fancy seven. I
never remember what's called reunion. Let's say

177
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,919
reunion, uh coming coming soon.
It's not reunion rebirth, rebirth rebirth.

178
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,759
Yeah, I was gonna call it
remake two. Um, yeah I do.

179
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,120
I do want to you know,
hear about like Ghostasshima two or whatever

180
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,480
else is happening. Yeah, it's
Uh. I feel like one of those

181
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,799
PlayStation showcases is when they showed the
hardware of the PS five. Was that

182
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:33,799
Like the first PlayStation showcase in the
lead up to to PS five is when

183
00:11:33,799 --> 00:11:37,320
they showed the hardware for that.
So if they do another showcase this year,

184
00:11:37,799 --> 00:11:41,279
I could see that ending with and
here is the PS five Slim.

185
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,960
You could pre order it now at
PlayStation Direct. Uh. Yeah, that

186
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,240
that sounds that sounds right to me. Uh, the psorry Pro then,

187
00:11:48,279 --> 00:11:52,039
do I mean, do we still
think that makes I mean, if the

188
00:11:52,039 --> 00:11:56,080
PS five Slim comes out and replaces
the both models, I do think a

189
00:11:56,159 --> 00:12:01,320
PRO is going to happen and probably
be at least one hundred dollars more expensive

190
00:12:01,759 --> 00:12:05,360
than whatever the PS five Slim launchers
for. But I think the PS five

191
00:12:05,399 --> 00:12:09,000
Slim could easily be four fifty to
five hundred dollars, and then a PRO

192
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,200
coming out being six hundred is not
out of the realm of possibility. I

193
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,799
don't know, what do you think. I never thought a PRO was going

194
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,960
to happen until like the last few
months, right, just just all of

195
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,679
these games suddenly having a hard time. You know, you know, we

196
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,399
went from like, oh wow,
yeah, every game has a pretty good

197
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:30,879
sixty fps mode. Well, Insomniac
has a sixty fps ray tracing mode on

198
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,240
its games, and we went from
that too. Well. I mean,

199
00:12:33,799 --> 00:12:39,000
you know, of course Redfall can't
do sixty fps because that's just a bad

200
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,799
game and it wasn't made well.
But you know, now we have Jedi

201
00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:48,399
Survivor pumping sixteen in Starfield just not
even trying to hit sixty fps. So

202
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,720
yeah, I think this stuff might
be coming this jen after all. And

203
00:12:52,759 --> 00:12:58,039
it's a little bit of a bummer. But I kind of kind of blame

204
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,480
myself for being gullible, really ying
into the hype about how powerful these machines

205
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:07,639
were, right, and just the
realities of what console gaming can actually do

206
00:13:07,919 --> 00:13:09,440
at the prices it needs to be
at. I do wonder, so,

207
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,000
okay, Places and five pro does
that have a disk drive? I think

208
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:16,840
it does, because that's the pro
option needs to come with everything, right,

209
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,120
you need to be able to have
I think it comes through twice the

210
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,679
amount of storage, a lot more
power. Now you know, significantly more

211
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,279
power and then you know, more
powerful GPU at the very least, and

212
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:31,080
then and then a disk drive will
still be in there. Yes, Um,

213
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,159
can you actually read this rogers og
super chat real quick because this jumps

214
00:13:35,159 --> 00:13:37,120
off of this topic, and then
we can move on to what's next,

215
00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:39,960
right, and hey, you you
can send a super chat too during the

216
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,919
show and we will read your question
or comment live on the air. But

217
00:13:43,039 --> 00:13:46,919
from rogers Og, here says,
regarding physical games, I work out a

218
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,639
Walmart, and I can tell you
way more people buy the gift card vouchers

219
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:56,399
for digital games rather than physical versions. Very few people actually buy the disks.

220
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,000
Okay, Walmart is a place where
I thought maybe that would still be

221
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,600
happening. So that's interesting. Yeah, I mean I bet that's true.

222
00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:05,320
I mean, this is the Rogers
This is anecdotal, but I still believe

223
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,120
you. I think. I mean, we can look at the numbers that

224
00:14:09,159 --> 00:14:13,919
these companies provide, and no one's
saying like one hundred percent of their stuff

225
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,759
is digital, but it like it
does range from fifty to seventy percent of

226
00:14:16,799 --> 00:14:22,440
their revenue from selling new, full, new full games is digital. Sometimes

227
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,000
those numbers get mixed up because they're
like, oh, we make this much

228
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,360
money from digital, and sometimes that
includes micro transactions, but a lot of

229
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,960
times companies clarify the number and they're
like, no, this is for full

230
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:37,279
game sales and sixty percent is digital. So a lot of people still are

231
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,720
buying physical and enough that it really
matters. But I do, and I

232
00:14:41,159 --> 00:14:45,000
do believe that today, like at
a Walmart or a game a game stop,

233
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,919
a lot of places like that,
because there are a lot of Xbox

234
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,919
series s is out there, I
bet a lot of people are buying digital

235
00:14:52,279 --> 00:14:56,840
like codes because they don't even have
a describe already. Yeah, I think

236
00:14:56,879 --> 00:15:00,639
that's right. I do. Uh. It makes me think of when I

237
00:15:00,679 --> 00:15:03,120
was at a game stop for Christmas
this year and I was just kind of

238
00:15:03,159 --> 00:15:07,519
in there looking for like presence for
nephews and nieces. Like the thing people

239
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,639
kept coming in to look for was
Roebucks. Like four people came in and

240
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:16,080
asked about Roebucks cards for roadblocks and
they're all turned away because they had sold

241
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,879
out, right, And then I
think it's it's it's weird to a lot

242
00:15:20,879 --> 00:15:24,360
of people, I think, but
that generation has already moved on. They

243
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:28,679
that all their games are already all
digital because they are live service games like

244
00:15:28,759 --> 00:15:33,120
Roadblocks and stuff like that. Uh, this pricing like before we move on,

245
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,840
those numbers were from Microsoft internally,
like speculating it seems. Do you

246
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,960
think there's a chance that they're trying
to like just yeah, I'll do a

247
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,399
little bit of an underhanded thing to
Sony where it's like, oh, it's

248
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:48,440
gonna be four hundreds, so that
when Sony announces it's one hundred dollars more

249
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,440
than that, they look bad.
Maybe that maybe it's like showing you have

250
00:15:50,559 --> 00:15:54,399
to see like, look, you're
you know, we have to compete with

251
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,000
their console at four hundred dollars now, so you know, it's really real

252
00:15:58,039 --> 00:16:00,960
hard for us. I mean there's
it certainly benefits them in multiple ways to

253
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:06,080
present it like sonything is going to
be as cheap as possible. But I

254
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,559
mean if it is four hundred dollars, you know, yeah, because because

255
00:16:10,559 --> 00:16:15,000
that's going to make the Series S
look worse. How much is a Series

256
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,000
S right now? It will be
cheaper, right the base version three hundred,

257
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:22,759
the the one terabyte version is three
fifty. I think, yeah,

258
00:16:22,799 --> 00:16:25,720
so it's like okay for one hundred
dollars more. They're both three dollars.

259
00:16:26,159 --> 00:16:30,799
Yeah, you can just get a
place they should five slim And yeah,

260
00:16:30,799 --> 00:16:33,840
it's smaller, but it's more a
lot more. It's decently more powerful than

261
00:16:33,879 --> 00:16:37,360
a series that's so. Yeah,
I think that's going to put Microsoft in

262
00:16:37,399 --> 00:16:41,080
a spot and man even more so
than places. And I think they're going

263
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,600
to maybe want that mid gen refresh
huh, yes, for no other reason,

264
00:16:45,799 --> 00:16:48,039
so they can maybe finally be like, hey, you don't have to

265
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,360
worry about Xbox Series S parody.
You have to get your game to run

266
00:16:51,399 --> 00:16:53,360
on series S. But of course
we don't expect it to run as well

267
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:59,080
as it does on the Xbox one, x X whatever they'll they'll call it.

268
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,440
Fifty was right the right price.
But but yeah, um, all

269
00:17:03,519 --> 00:17:08,319
right, let's see what is next
here. I have Capcom is pondering Mega

270
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,759
Man's future. Mike Gasp. They
basically were like, we're asked, hey,

271
00:17:12,839 --> 00:17:15,519
MegaMan, that's like, listen,
you're doing a ton of stuff.

272
00:17:15,559 --> 00:17:18,160
What's what are you doing with MegaMan? And they're like, listen, we

273
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,400
are thinking about what to do with
MegaMan. How do you take that?

274
00:17:22,519 --> 00:17:26,519
Hey? At least it didn't say
well, no comment, right, Yeah,

275
00:17:26,559 --> 00:17:29,079
they could have just said nothing and
they said, yes, we are

276
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,119
thinking about it now. There is
a bit of like that almost did Tendo

277
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,119
talk right When it's like, hey, why don't you make a new of

278
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,920
the zero, It's like, well, we just need a new idea.

279
00:17:36,759 --> 00:17:38,759
Yeah, so a little bit of
that, say it is in rocket science

280
00:17:38,799 --> 00:17:42,039
here. But you know, I've
been telling you for a while I want

281
00:17:42,039 --> 00:17:45,160
them to be ambitious with the next
Mega Man. I mean, if they

282
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,400
announced Mega Man twelve, Mega Man
x nine, it's you know, a

283
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,799
two D game, I'd still be
very excited, of course, but I

284
00:17:52,839 --> 00:17:56,240
do want to see, like them
use that ri engine make some really cool

285
00:17:56,319 --> 00:18:02,279
Mega Man game that people will spend
sixty dollars for to be like a you

286
00:18:02,319 --> 00:18:04,839
know, a five million seller maybe
gosh even a four million sewer three million

287
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,880
so would be pretty good for Mega
Man. Yes it would. So something

288
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,920
like that would be really cool.
You know, I start to see you

289
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,559
before too, and like, you
know, I look. I like Mega

290
00:18:14,599 --> 00:18:17,759
Man Legends also a lot. I
played Megama Legends one all the way through

291
00:18:17,799 --> 00:18:21,240
for the first time recently. I
still think it's great. I don't want

292
00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:25,119
the next Mega Man game to be
Mega Man Legends three because I want the

293
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:30,400
next Mega game to sell him.
Listen, that is one hundred percent correct.

294
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,200
I'm sorry. Mega Man Legends three
is not going to fail because it's

295
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,400
um the sequel to MegaMan Legends one
and two games that didn't sell very well.

296
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,880
It would it would not, it
would like not perform as well as

297
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,799
a new, fancy from the ground
up, fresh star big three D Mega

298
00:18:45,799 --> 00:18:49,319
Man game that feels like this,
Hey, this is important because we're Capcom.

299
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,640
We're saying this is important. This
isn't important because a bunch of nerds

300
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,400
from there who are too old are
saying are begging for this game series to

301
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,720
come back. Like I mean,
I'm sure they could a lot of fun

302
00:19:00,759 --> 00:19:03,799
stuff with MegaMan Legends three, and
maybe eventually they do get around and eventually

303
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,200
eventually you'll get that boy off the
moon. But like, you know,

304
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:11,279
let's we got to really do something
splashy here first. I think Big Turbo's

305
00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:14,279
right. I think they do a
MegaMan Legends compilation with Tronbon in there,

306
00:19:14,279 --> 00:19:17,720
and that's yeah, that's three games, yep, just fantastic. That would

307
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,440
get modernized the controls a bit on
some of those. I mean again,

308
00:19:19,559 --> 00:19:22,759
I think those games actually still hold
it up really well. Aside for maybe

309
00:19:22,799 --> 00:19:25,880
the controls. You know, I
mean, I'm a sick goo I can

310
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,839
get used to that stuff. But
for other people, you spice those up.

311
00:19:29,039 --> 00:19:32,440
I think a collection, I mean, the Battle Network collection did really

312
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,519
well, and I think that probably
actually has more fans of legends. Maybe

313
00:19:34,519 --> 00:19:37,880
the Little Just collection wouldn't do that
well. It would do well enough,

314
00:19:38,279 --> 00:19:41,000
and I think we I at this
point, I think we're getting every MegaMan

315
00:19:41,079 --> 00:19:45,160
game in a collection. I think
that is going to happen. Maybe get

316
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,480
those Star Force games. I'm not
sure how much people are how fun people

317
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,240
were of those, but it'll happen. But again, I want more than

318
00:19:52,279 --> 00:19:55,200
collections, and they, you know, basically kind of acknowledge that, and

319
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,519
I you know, I bet,
I bet there are ideas churning. I

320
00:19:59,519 --> 00:20:02,640
don't think we're going to hear anything
imminently. I don't know if we're going

321
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,680
to hear anything within the next year, but I am hopeful it's not.

322
00:20:06,839 --> 00:20:10,440
It's definitely not the situation like some
of these other companies where it's clear that

323
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,559
the character's dead and they want nothing
more to do with it. They still

324
00:20:12,599 --> 00:20:15,920
do kind of use Mega Man as
a mascot. Any lot of stuff.

325
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,559
Battle Network selling as well as it
did. The collection clearly has had to

326
00:20:19,559 --> 00:20:23,160
open up their eyes too. Oh, there are a lot of MegaMan freaks

327
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,720
out there, and we are actually
leaving money on the table. I just

328
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:33,079
I'm not like a skeptical skeptical of
Capcom's ability to like learn the right lesson.

329
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:37,079
I do wonder what lesson they take
away from Hey, MegaMan Battle Network

330
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,920
collection did better than most of our
other collections? What do we do next

331
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:45,039
with this information? And it's like, I hope it is do a lot

332
00:20:45,039 --> 00:20:47,519
of stuff with Mega Man, including
a new Battle Network. I wonder if

333
00:20:47,519 --> 00:20:49,440
they're just like, oh, let's
just do a small new Battle Network game.

334
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,799
That seems very likely as well.
So yeah, that wouldn't exactly let

335
00:20:53,839 --> 00:20:57,359
my world on fire. Yep,
stop calling me a freak list. We're

336
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,480
all freaks here. What do you
think? I think the Scott Damn podcast

337
00:21:00,599 --> 00:21:07,839
is red That's right, the freak
Zone red Dead redemption remaster rumors continue to

338
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:12,000
pick up some more credible credible evidence. Um, basically a bunch of more

339
00:21:12,039 --> 00:21:17,240
people are are corroborating this report.
That sounds right. I don't know if

340
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,000
we talked about this last week,
because there was this mostly this is from

341
00:21:19,039 --> 00:21:23,079
the last week. But Reddeption one
remaster, Yeah, Red Dead Redemption one

342
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,440
remaster is what I if I didn't
say that, that's what I meant to

343
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:30,319
say. I guess I've just missed
it. It could also just be a

344
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,920
remake of sorts um but you know, probably a Big Boy remaster is actually

345
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,319
what they're going for. Uh.
This is something that they were working on

346
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,400
a long time ago and they put
it on pause after that GTA Trilogy was

347
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,960
a complete cluster fuck. Apparently they
really did just put it on pause,

348
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:48,319
though with every intention of going back
to it, because of course they did,

349
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,119
like this is a game that would
is going to sell well when they

350
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,440
put it out as long as it's
competently produced, and this will be a

351
00:21:56,519 --> 00:22:00,279
chance to maybe get it onto PC
finally in a way, and then went

352
00:22:00,319 --> 00:22:03,880
away that it hasn't been before.
So right now it's been rated in South

353
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,799
Korea for console, not for PC
at least as far as anyone can tell,

354
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,599
So they will probably what they'll probably
do is they'll update it for the

355
00:22:11,599 --> 00:22:15,319
modern consoles and then put out a
PC version later. If they're doing all

356
00:22:15,319 --> 00:22:18,160
this work, that makes a lot
of sense. Red Dead Redemption one.

357
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:19,039
Is that one that you have a
lot of fondness for. I know you

358
00:22:19,079 --> 00:22:23,440
like too, I like too,
but I love one. Redemption one was

359
00:22:23,599 --> 00:22:29,240
fantastic. That was definitely one of
my favorite games from that generation. Actually,

360
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,480
that one hit from me really well. I'm not usually a big growth

361
00:22:32,519 --> 00:22:36,680
left auto guy. I think red
Der Redeption did a much much better job

362
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:41,640
having a consistent tone to it.
I really liked its vibe. The music

363
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:44,799
was great, you know the whole
you know, when you go to Mexo

364
00:22:44,839 --> 00:22:47,440
for the first time that song plays. I don't know why that was such

365
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:52,160
a good moment, but it really
was. Had a really really strong ending.

366
00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:53,720
I thought mechanics were a lot of
fun. Yeah, I love Red

367
00:22:53,759 --> 00:22:57,759
Dead Redemption One. Actually, I'm
really interested to go back to that and

368
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,799
see what I think of it.
Now. Uh do you think it comes

369
00:23:02,799 --> 00:23:07,039
to the Switch huh Um? I
say, well, they did get the

370
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:12,599
GTA trilogy on Switch, but that
right sucked? Yeah? Yes, uh,

371
00:23:14,279 --> 00:23:17,119
I mean hey, maybe hey,
maybe they're they're thinking about Switch too

372
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,519
now right Maybe not? Maybe it'll
be an early switched to thing. Yeah,

373
00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:22,359
maybe kind of fun. Okay,
if you put put that out as

374
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:26,359
a launch window game on the switch
follow up, I bet it does very

375
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,839
well. Actually, all right,
Smoke and Rain confirmed as playable in Mortal

376
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:36,720
Kombat one, and then Sector Cyrax, Frost, and Scorpion are now all

377
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:41,359
also confirmed as cameo fighters. Um. I watched that trailer that this game

378
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,720
continues to look so like so much
fun, and Smoke and Rain in particular

379
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,799
look very good. I was very
impressed. I think Rain looks actually kind

380
00:23:48,799 --> 00:23:52,960
of awesome. It looks super cool. Yeah, Like Smoke is very much

381
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,559
like the classic kind of uh ninja
look, he looks pretty simply, and

382
00:23:56,599 --> 00:24:02,000
how subzero Scorpion look in this game. But Rain has kind of like a

383
00:24:02,079 --> 00:24:04,319
cool mage thing, going, what
are you flashing to the camera? By

384
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,880
that? I just want people are
talking about my physical game because I'm a

385
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,440
freak. Two. I just was
trying to show him the price. It's

386
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,680
three dollars and fifty one cents for
this Mario golf for the Game Boy Color.

387
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:17,720
When did you get that? Long
time ago? About to say I

388
00:24:17,839 --> 00:24:19,519
have some games like that too that
have old sticker prices. When I bought

389
00:24:19,519 --> 00:24:22,640
two nine goal in Yeah, and
it's very funny to see how much we

390
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,160
used to get these four But yeah, I mean, right, looks great,

391
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,319
but you know me, I'm a
smoke freak. I mean, I

392
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,319
almost feel I feel bizarrely blessed that. I mean, I've been crying about

393
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,119
Smoke this whole time Wortal Kombat one, and literally the first character announced for

394
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:41,440
it after like the initial roster is
Smoke. I told you all that ed

395
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,880
Boone led me to believe it was
going to happen. I also got some

396
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,799
info from some other people. Thank
you very much. You made me think

397
00:24:47,799 --> 00:24:49,519
it was going to happen, so
I knew I was pretty sure it was

398
00:24:49,519 --> 00:24:53,319
going to happen. But seeing it
and announced right away, he looks really

399
00:24:53,319 --> 00:24:56,000
cool. He's kind of he has
like he's like kind of fighting with like

400
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,240
knives, which is a little bit
different, I think than what he's done

401
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,000
before. So there's some twist there. But yeah, I don't know why

402
00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:04,680
I love all the ninjas. Actually, they're all good. I feel like

403
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,039
I feel like every more combat game, I want all of them. I

404
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:12,319
don't just want Subsiduent Scorpion. They're
great. Give me Irmac, give me

405
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:17,359
Rain, give me Reptile and Smoke, even give me Tremor. Hell,

406
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,920
I don't care. I think they're
all great. Yeah, I want them

407
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,319
to keep and really the way that
they're doing this continues to be really fun

408
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,839
where it's like, oh, these
characters come back and we get to see

409
00:25:26,839 --> 00:25:30,160
how they change from Mortal Kombat one, and then we also get all these

410
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,839
cameo fighters that are just like absolutely
hitting the nostalgia buttons. Um yeah,

411
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,920
like Cyrax and Sector just straight up
how they look in like Mortal Kombat three

412
00:25:37,319 --> 00:25:41,400
and uh yeah, and they look
great. I do always like those characters.

413
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,960
I wouldn't mind if Robots Smoke was
a it was a cameo character on

414
00:25:45,039 --> 00:25:47,880
top of that exactly. I'm not
I'm not gonna get that greedy, but

415
00:25:48,319 --> 00:25:52,720
it's fun. But yeah, it
looks great. Aw Fight Forever Stadium Stampede

416
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,640
Battle Royal Moode was has been teased. We don't have to like talk about

417
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,759
the mode, although it looks pretty
fun. It's like a Battle royalmode.

418
00:26:00,079 --> 00:26:02,960
I mean kind it's it's a free
update, I think too. So that's

419
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,799
neat exactly. That's kind of where
I'm at. So they they've talked about

420
00:26:04,839 --> 00:26:08,200
in the past, at least I've
heard this. I can't remember who said

421
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,920
it, aw And or Yuks,
but that the plan is to support this

422
00:26:14,079 --> 00:26:18,480
game, this specific game, for
two years. This feels like a really

423
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,160
good start, and I hope that, like the future updates look a lot

424
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,359
like this, where like, let's
just try big, crazy things in this

425
00:26:26,599 --> 00:26:29,319
because I think that could be a
really good way to keep this game relevant

426
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,359
as long as they keep updating the
roster pretty heavily. They introduced sting that

427
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,440
was good, We've got staying,
We've got I think FTR and I believe

428
00:26:37,759 --> 00:26:41,480
the acclaimed is either they are coming
soon, I'm exactly. I mean,

429
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:44,079
look that that's a great plan,
but they're gonna fall through with it if

430
00:26:44,079 --> 00:26:47,559
the sales numbers are there. And
I still worry that they really shot themselves

431
00:26:47,559 --> 00:26:49,400
on the foot with a sixty dollar
price pet price tag for this game.

432
00:26:49,519 --> 00:26:52,759
Yeah, but I feel like it's
one. If you drop it to forty

433
00:26:52,839 --> 00:26:55,559
and you keep doing these updates,
I bet it. I bet like it

434
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,119
picks up like positive word of mouth
enough, I would hope. I hope

435
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,400
so, I hope so. But
it would have been better if it just

436
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:06,000
came out at forty. But sure
they'll drop the price eventually, but not

437
00:27:06,079 --> 00:27:07,599
how many people are waiting for that? And then people might be wait for

438
00:27:07,599 --> 00:27:11,160
that and then miss it when it
happens. Right, Yes, it's difficult,

439
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,519
but because like I still want to
play the game, but I don't

440
00:27:14,519 --> 00:27:17,200
really want to spend sixty bucks on
it, and I didn't get a code,

441
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,039
and plus it's this time of the
year, right, it's crazy any

442
00:27:19,079 --> 00:27:22,200
games we had to play, but
well you're playing it's the quick click on

443
00:27:22,319 --> 00:27:26,000
Jianbom. I thought it looked really
fun. Actually, that's kind of into

444
00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:30,599
it. I think the best way
to describe it is it really is WCW

445
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:37,759
w W versus INWO Revenge, not
WWF No Mercy Mercy, because it's like

446
00:27:37,759 --> 00:27:41,880
No Mercy came out after and was
more refined and had more stuff. This

447
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,400
for me, and I didn't play
a lot of that because I was watching

448
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,079
WCW, so I was like renting
the WCW games over and over, and

449
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,039
those always felt pretty slight and then
but it was like still a lot of

450
00:27:51,039 --> 00:27:53,200
fun because the systems were there,
and this feels a lot like that,

451
00:27:53,319 --> 00:27:57,519
where it is not quite as refined
as you can imagine it maybe end up

452
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,200
end up being in a couple of
years. I hope it kind of gets

453
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:03,799
there. I think i'd be very
excited. I mean, would you rather

454
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:10,000
they just make the sequel and like
a year um with some improvements of bigger

455
00:28:10,079 --> 00:28:12,839
roster. I don't know, because
it's like for this kind like that.

456
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:18,519
It was not some great idea for
Yukes Games previously, right, Like Yukes

457
00:28:18,559 --> 00:28:22,839
wasn't like making huge improvements because they
were on an annual, annual early schedule.

458
00:28:22,079 --> 00:28:29,359
So I'm hopeful that by focusing on
this game that has a decent foundation,

459
00:28:29,559 --> 00:28:33,119
I find it very fun to play. And so if you take that

460
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:34,839
and you keep adding to the roster, and you keep adding new modes and

461
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,960
then maybe add some new moves here
and there, I think that is pretty

462
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:44,440
promising. Obviously, there's a lot
of stuff that would be probably easier to

463
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,920
introduce in a sequel, like an
improved character creator mode, because like that's

464
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,559
a lot of work to go into
something that it just doesn't feel like you

465
00:28:52,559 --> 00:28:56,279
get a lot of mileage from that
as a developer putting that out as an

466
00:28:56,359 --> 00:28:59,319
update. That feels like I'm a
feature you put on the box when you're

467
00:28:59,319 --> 00:29:02,279
first selling the game. So yeah, I do want them to get around

468
00:29:02,279 --> 00:29:04,680
to doing a sequel, But I
think that updates to aw Fight Forever can

469
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,799
really work. And you know,
they have a platform to promote this game,

470
00:29:10,319 --> 00:29:12,559
you know, every week on television
throwing forward. So I kind of

471
00:29:12,559 --> 00:29:15,160
hope they just know. There's always
a big reason I think why the w

472
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,799
E games always did so well.
Right right, really remind people that those

473
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,680
exist. You can really target your
fan base directly. Yep. And it's

474
00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:26,200
um it's kind of thing where you
know, you just every time you have

475
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,599
a new big content update drop,
you just make a new just tell them

476
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,400
made for TV commercial. Just tell
the fan base and give them a reason,

477
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,279
like because people you miss last time, be like it still has all

478
00:29:34,319 --> 00:29:37,279
that stuff and now it has this
thing that you might be into. Either

479
00:29:37,319 --> 00:29:41,440
you can work, get Excalibur to
scream about it will be We'll be happy.

480
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,160
There's a lot of fun fighting game
stuff. I don't know if it's

481
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:48,720
on your rundown, but the Rashid
the first DLC character for a Streetfighter six

482
00:29:48,799 --> 00:29:52,759
scot a gameplay show there or at
least date on July twenty fourth, and

483
00:29:52,839 --> 00:29:56,119
he's looking like a lot of fun. He's a streamer, which is an

484
00:29:56,119 --> 00:29:59,799
interesting character quirk. Now, yeah, he's he's he's four K sixty f

485
00:30:00,079 --> 00:30:03,079
yes, beat your ass kind of
guy. Now that's going to that bandwidth

486
00:30:03,079 --> 00:30:07,640
on that that that's going to require
unless he's use an AV one encode of

487
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,000
course. Um. Last of Us
Part three millcap filming is happening this year

488
00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:17,400
apparently, Mike, you are someone
that I used to very much associate with

489
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:22,319
Naughty Dog fandom, and now you're
not so much that. Well, how

490
00:30:22,319 --> 00:30:23,799
are you feeling about this? Yeah? I mean, look, I just

491
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,559
I like Last of Us one.
Then I played half of Last of Us

492
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,279
two, and like, you know, after a while, I have enough

493
00:30:33,279 --> 00:30:36,680
of these miserable people and their miserable
problems. Is kind of how I feel.

494
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:37,839
Like. That's the way I put
it, Like, Yeah, I

495
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:42,279
get it. Shit sucks for these
people and it's terrible. I mean I

496
00:30:42,319 --> 00:30:47,000
get it. I get why people
really like it. And you know the

497
00:30:47,039 --> 00:30:49,759
fact that I did like Last of
Us Part one so much it was me

498
00:30:49,839 --> 00:30:55,200
kind of going against the aesthetics that
I generally are into, right, or

499
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,440
the kind of like the tone of
the kind of games I'm into. Right,

500
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:02,039
I charted very much more of my
thing. We're having an adventure.

501
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:07,559
It's fun, the sun's out and
all that stuff. But yeah, the

502
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,240
Last of Us just doesn't do it
for me, I'm not shocked we're getting

503
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:15,279
a third one. I really wish
we sort of got another new game from

504
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,920
Naughty dock first and in the way
that we got Last of Us between a

505
00:31:18,039 --> 00:31:22,279
chartered three and four. But with
how long games take to make, now

506
00:31:22,559 --> 00:31:25,880
Last of Us is obviously this huge
thing, I'm not surprised. Yeah,

507
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,599
strike Strike while that Iron's hot,
finish up Lasts of Us. Hopefully this

508
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,400
is like kind of the conclusion there
so that night Dog can start working on

509
00:31:33,599 --> 00:31:40,000
something else. But I'm not sure. Yeah, you know, like you

510
00:31:40,039 --> 00:31:41,720
said, you get it. I
get it. I get that, this

511
00:31:41,799 --> 00:31:45,480
is why. I get why this
is happening. But then at the same

512
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,119
time, i'd be like, you
know, uncharted, I get like why,

513
00:31:48,119 --> 00:31:49,720
I get why we're gonna always get
uncharted games from Naughty Dog, and

514
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,599
we're not getting that. Clearly they
want to make a Last of Us Part

515
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,240
three on top of also probably in
making a lot of financial sense, and

516
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:01,920
Sony very much encourage and encourage them
to do so. Um, But I

517
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,519
don't know. If I wonder if
Naughty Dog were to turn to something more

518
00:32:06,599 --> 00:32:08,319
crowded pleasing, if that is you
know, and that's what I would prefer

519
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:12,720
but I never know if my tastes
are aligned with a wider audience or not.

520
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,119
Oh, I think that, I
think this is what's crab pleasing.

521
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,799
You're you know what, You're probably
that's almost exactly right. This is this

522
00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:22,880
does seem actually, because whenever I
hear wider audiences talk about video games,

523
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,319
Last of Us is what comes up
and they talk in and it's like they

524
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,880
like, I would still more games
like that, and I'm like, I'm

525
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,200
glad there aren't, because so much
resources goes into it that like even like

526
00:32:31,279 --> 00:32:36,359
one or two things like that is
to take so much, so much oxygen

527
00:32:36,359 --> 00:32:38,920
out of the room for these big
publishers that yeah, there's a reason why

528
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,359
we only get a few of them. Yeah, I wonder what miserable shit's

529
00:32:42,359 --> 00:32:45,279
going to happen Last of Us three. I wonder if someone's going to like

530
00:32:45,319 --> 00:32:47,720
get their leg chopped off in the
beginning, and then they'll they'll fall,

531
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:52,000
they'll go'll get like a pony,
and then the pony will die. Yeah,

532
00:32:52,079 --> 00:32:55,319
the pony will will just be beautiful
and pure, and they'll they'll punish

533
00:32:55,319 --> 00:33:00,519
it for that, they'll punish it. Thing will be really brown and it

534
00:33:00,559 --> 00:33:06,519
will be really sweaty and dirty.
It's nice. Yeah, we'll see Naughty

535
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:08,160
Dog fans will keep getting those Naughty
Dog games though, so I mean they

536
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,160
do. Yeah, they make good
games. They are They're definitely good games.

537
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,400
I'm sure if I like did sit
Down be like I am going to

538
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,599
beat Last of Us two, I
would have a fine time with it.

539
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:20,119
I find a lot I appreciate.
But again that that really is my tagline

540
00:33:20,119 --> 00:33:22,759
for like what is my problem?
Why don't I care more about Last of

541
00:33:22,839 --> 00:33:27,960
Us? I am tired of these
miserable people and their miserable problems. I

542
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,799
really like the rope physics. They
should make an entire game about that.

543
00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:34,039
Charted It four had that rope shit. Man, I'm ruled in there.

544
00:33:34,039 --> 00:33:36,720
I think they just stolen stole,
but they just use the rope physics.

545
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,079
I Charted It four a lot of
fun. I really like. I love

546
00:33:39,119 --> 00:33:42,519
on Chart at four. I think, okay since the ridiculous to say on

547
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,960
Chart at four is underrated, but
that game no one talks about it.

548
00:33:45,119 --> 00:33:50,200
I no one talks about that.
Maybe it's like I'm not like listening to

549
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,480
the right people. But these big
sony games do, I guess because like

550
00:33:53,519 --> 00:33:57,960
God of War kind of always gets
brought up, but it's like anything that's

551
00:33:58,039 --> 00:34:00,599
not God of War or the Last
to us, it does feel like they

552
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,160
come and go and then they like
they get forgotten about, and I'm like,

553
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,480
I'm trying to for this one.
I would like think about all the

554
00:34:06,519 --> 00:34:09,519
time. I just enjoyed myself,
but I'm probably just like missing the conversations

555
00:34:09,559 --> 00:34:15,480
about that dick termss Mike, why
are people in an apocalypse so visible?

556
00:34:15,079 --> 00:34:20,239
Yeah? I get it, but
I don't have to like inhabit that world

557
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,079
constantly. I feel like if you
were an apocalypse, you would still be

558
00:34:24,079 --> 00:34:27,880
pretty much the same person, Mike. I think you would probably pretty much

559
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,239
still be Mike. Yeah. I
don't think I would suddenly be dour and

560
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:36,079
like, yeah constantly like solemnly playing
a guitar and being sad. I don't

561
00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:39,280
know, all right? That does
are the big headlines I have written down

562
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,559
here? Yeah, look at that. I even I told you. I

563
00:34:42,679 --> 00:34:45,039
screamed at you about the headline I
found for you. I said, put

564
00:34:45,039 --> 00:34:46,400
it in the round down and you
didn't. I didn't. You did it?

565
00:34:46,519 --> 00:34:52,239
What is it? It's street Fighter
six? Yes, sales numbers.

566
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,119
Street Fighter six has sold two million
copies. Everybody. Mike did tell me,

567
00:34:55,159 --> 00:35:00,400
I forget what I was doing at
the time. Yes, that is

568
00:35:00,039 --> 00:35:04,599
I think pretty good for a fighting
game. Listen, street Fighter has never

569
00:35:04,639 --> 00:35:07,519
been the top selling fighting game except
for a probably a street Fighter two.

570
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:12,480
Since then, Mortal Kombat has only
grown bigger every time that they put out

571
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,679
a new one. Mortal Kombat eleven
has sold fifteen million cups were wide,

572
00:35:15,679 --> 00:35:20,599
which is very very very good,
very good. Mortal Kombat was a good

573
00:35:20,599 --> 00:35:22,960
I mean, street Fighter SIPs wasn't
going to do that, but they did

574
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,960
aim for ten million. They said
that they're aiming for ten million. They're

575
00:35:27,199 --> 00:35:31,559
probably on a trajectory to hit that. Street Fighter should have pretty good legs,

576
00:35:31,119 --> 00:35:36,079
though I thought it. I thought
it would get off to a slightly

577
00:35:36,159 --> 00:35:38,360
better start. But I don't know. I mean, you know, we

578
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:42,599
haven't seen it at its first EVO
and things like that. Does that stuff

579
00:35:42,599 --> 00:35:45,119
make a difference. I honestly don't
know. I guess. I mean,

580
00:35:45,119 --> 00:35:49,639
apparently of street Fighter five has somehow
sold seven point two million units, which

581
00:35:49,679 --> 00:35:52,519
shocks me. That's a game those
only on PC and PlayStation four. So

582
00:35:52,599 --> 00:35:55,440
yeah, this game is going to
have to sell better than that. It's

583
00:35:55,519 --> 00:35:59,960
going it is going to sell better
than that. I think it probably probably

584
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,360
you know, halts around nine to
ten million. You know, they're going

585
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:06,079
to support this game for a long
time, So I yeah, I do

586
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:08,320
think it gets to ten million.
It's just, um, do get to

587
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:13,320
a strong ten million with like,
you know, a few few price drops

588
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,480
and things like that. Probably not, but I don't know if that's ever

589
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,239
what they meant. Yeah, I
guess. I mean it's just you know,

590
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,719
two millions good, but all again, this isn't like two million.

591
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,679
It's first weekend. This is two
million. Now the game came out about

592
00:36:23,679 --> 00:36:28,519
a month ago, right, Yeah, I think that's um, I think

593
00:36:28,559 --> 00:36:30,400
it's good. It's good. It's
like you gotta keep good fighting games away.

594
00:36:30,519 --> 00:36:37,559
Yeah, Mortal Kombat eleven is the
best selling fighting game that's not a

595
00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:42,400
Smash Brothers and uh and Smash Brothers
is what like thirty million? Thirty five

596
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,719
millis? I mean? Is it
got to hurt it that Mortal Kombat one

597
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,400
is coming out? Like, you
know, if your goal is maybe get

598
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,480
some more of that audience, people
are just getting play Mortal Kobat after all,

599
00:36:51,519 --> 00:36:52,679
I don't think it hurts it.
I think I think well, with

600
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:57,320
fighting games, it is a little
bit of a rising tide lifts all boats

601
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,960
so that things like that, that
that road every town has of all the

602
00:37:00,039 --> 00:37:01,559
card dealerships kind of thing exactly.
I think it's that sort of thing,

603
00:37:01,679 --> 00:37:06,519
yes, where it's like because one
if one card dealership starts doing better,

604
00:37:07,199 --> 00:37:09,559
it usually improves business at another one. I think it's that sort of thing

605
00:37:09,599 --> 00:37:13,800
where the more people that are excited
about fighting games, the better for everyone.

606
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:15,400
And if more to Kombat one is
the reason people get excited about fighting

607
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,320
games, that's actually just gonna mean
good things for street fighters six, I

608
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,079
think, and GE's probably how to
work I much just before remakes sort or

609
00:37:24,639 --> 00:37:29,840
curious now, I don't know.
I'll try to find that, but we

610
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,920
can move on now. Well,
we're gonna move on to a break.

611
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,719
When we get back, we're going
to read some super chats. We are

612
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,440
going to do our Metacritic prediction for
the next quarter. After my stunning and

613
00:37:40,039 --> 00:37:46,079
just glorious victory from last quarter,
we're just stunted on this hoe just absolutely

614
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:50,440
destroy it them. We'll give them
a chance to get a little bit of

615
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,119
redemption. We'll do that when we
get back as well, and then we're

616
00:37:52,119 --> 00:37:57,800
gonna do a mount rushmore of sports
video game arcade staff sports video games?

617
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,360
Man, did I not tell you
that's interesting? Tell me that that's interesting.

618
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:08,159
We'll do that. We'll get back
right after these messages, and we

619
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:13,239
are back. Mike, you have
some super chats. I'm led to believe

620
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,559
this is in fact correct, sir, And in fact, the first one

621
00:38:16,559 --> 00:38:20,519
here is from I column seventeen XS
and says, hey, guys, hope

622
00:38:20,519 --> 00:38:22,119
you had a great fourth of July. Also, did you guys see that

623
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,920
the reeptually got raided in South Korea? Maybe a potential remasters on the way,

624
00:38:27,039 --> 00:38:29,480
we think so? I did have
a nice fourth of July? Uh,

625
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:30,920
And I did? We did?
We talked about that. Man.

626
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,880
Again, I am hopeful. I
I do wonder just what that's going to

627
00:38:36,039 --> 00:38:38,239
be, because we do have we
are getting some games from that generation just

628
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:42,880
actually being remade, like I guess
just Dead Space is the only example I

629
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,920
can really think of. But clearly
they have to do better than what they

630
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:51,360
do with the Grand Theft Auto trilogy. You said, you said they paused

631
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,559
the efforts on this and grewd Theft
Auto four after that was a bit of

632
00:38:54,559 --> 00:38:59,760
a mess. So hopefully they rethought
what they were doing there. I hope

633
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:05,159
that this is a really impressive remaster
again, I love that game. Yeah,

634
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,400
I um, I yeah, I'm
right there with you. I think

635
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:12,320
they are doing it. I think
it'll be a big boy remaster, bordering

636
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:16,519
on remake, something that can to
definitely Metroid Prime, but maybe as much

637
00:39:16,519 --> 00:39:22,199
as Dead Space. We'll see.
Connal Wood says, no way, as

638
00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:24,880
Slim is four hundred, if Project
Q is three hundred, what's Project Q

639
00:39:25,039 --> 00:39:30,599
again? It is? So you
have this ultrahndibility from Zelda and then you

640
00:39:30,639 --> 00:39:34,360
have a dual sense weu game pad. Yes, you ripped the duel sense

641
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,719
in half, put a tablet between
it and it used ultra hand to glue

642
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:38,960
it together. And then that you
have a project QUE that you're sold a

643
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,599
three hundred dollars and not only works
with to I, it's three hundred dollars.

644
00:39:42,639 --> 00:39:44,880
We don't know what price? Yeah, where where does that price coming

645
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:51,239
from? Canal excuse me? Put
it in chat because I um Jan said

646
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,079
the same thing today and we couldn't
figure out where we had heard that.

647
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:59,599
I think a lot of people were
just pessimi pessimistically guessing. I don't think

648
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:04,199
they say it's going to cost that
we'll see, right though, that'd be

649
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,360
insane. No, I actually I
don't. There's just no way that's insane.

650
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,320
The I mean, okay, I
get it. We'll see it's charting

651
00:40:09,639 --> 00:40:14,039
for things. Yeah, I understand
that, but still, okay, my

652
00:40:14,159 --> 00:40:16,480
god, we'll see, we'll see. Jodaka says. The real question is

653
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:20,679
if Xbox as a pro model,
do they fix the sense of their past

654
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:27,599
and use NVM this time? Jeff? What is eDV M E non volatile

655
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,000
memory? What's the E stand for
you? A camera excitement excitement UM?

656
00:40:31,159 --> 00:40:36,119
Extreme sex Express because of some new
version, right right, that's right?

657
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:40,199
So I liked extreme sex. Yeah, of course NBAME is just they do

658
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,400
they use SATA? They use they
do they? I thought they used MBAME

659
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:45,639
for a long time, but I
guess now that i'm thinking about I do

660
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:50,199
remember hearing that they use SATA insteads
These are just a truth to me,

661
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:55,119
is instead of the card like is
it just instead of since a CF express?

662
00:40:55,199 --> 00:41:00,639
So they were okay, uh no, no, no, they're just

663
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,320
I get what you mean. So
instead and so you want to be able

664
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:08,599
to just install an m to SSD
into your thing to expand your storage instead

665
00:41:08,599 --> 00:41:13,679
of being stuck on the CF Express
cards that are proprietarily made. Um,

666
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:16,679
I could see that. I mean
for a pro model. If they do

667
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,760
a pro you would hope that they
wouldn't give you every option. They're probably

668
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,599
not going to because they've made all
these deals. They're probably just going to

669
00:41:23,679 --> 00:41:29,440
stick to this thing that's simple and
clean. Whatever, simple and clean.

670
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:34,000
Yes, you're like the way that
you're making me feel. Does that mean

671
00:41:34,079 --> 00:41:39,159
I have to meet your father?
From Ryan Allen and says Mega Man meets

672
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:43,360
Dead Cells or Hades, Hey,
I got a game for you, Ryan.

673
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,480
Thirty XCX is in early access,
but it's actually sequel called twenty XCX.

674
00:41:47,599 --> 00:41:51,239
I think you should just play thirty
XCX even though it's in early access.

675
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,599
But that is in fact just Mega
man X as a rogue light and

676
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:59,639
it's a very fun. I'm a
big fan of it. Although again,

677
00:41:59,679 --> 00:42:02,800
like I I want Capcom whatever,
I don't want it to really take us

678
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:07,000
braces from indie games necessarily. Nothing
wrong with indie games. I love indie

679
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:08,679
games, but they're track you hate
them? Yeah, well, you know,

680
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,880
look, I'm not exactly the big
reternal guy, but like you know,

681
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:15,360
maybe look at Returnal. Actually,
what the Mega Man absolutely not look

682
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,800
at Hades. Are you insane?
What are you saying? I'm actually mad

683
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:22,000
at what was a shooter? Are
you talking about? Well? Because well,

684
00:42:22,039 --> 00:42:23,159
because I look, I want a
three D game, I do.

685
00:42:23,199 --> 00:42:28,119
I just want to take just make
Hades, but three D Reraternal is a

686
00:42:28,159 --> 00:42:31,639
bad Hadies not bad, it's fine, but like all the truth comes out,

687
00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,440
all this stuff that Reternal does,
in terms of being a rogue light

688
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,079
is okay, pales in comparison to
what Hades does. Okay, that's fair,

689
00:42:38,119 --> 00:42:40,280
that's fair. But I guess I
just mean in terms of more like

690
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:45,000
the game three three, If that's
what you mean, I think Mega Man

691
00:42:45,159 --> 00:42:51,679
should have a gun and not a
sword unless you're zero ah An TONIONI says,

692
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:57,119
make Mega Man like Kirby Forgottenland but
hard. Yeah, Kirby had a

693
00:42:57,159 --> 00:43:00,440
gun in that game. Yeah,
yeah, you could do kind of have

694
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,519
megamanness to it. Thirty xx has
a Maker update. Apparently you can like

695
00:43:04,599 --> 00:43:07,920
make levels in thirty x X.
Now that's yeah, that's it's yeah,

696
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,960
that game is very good. I
kind of have kept waiting for it to

697
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:14,559
get out of early access. I'm
most surprised, Like, I'm glad you

698
00:43:14,559 --> 00:43:16,360
have a Maker update. Maybe get
out of early access and then work on

699
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:23,079
the Maker stuff totally, you know
whatever, Burrito says Mike MegaMan Bass Sash.

700
00:43:23,159 --> 00:43:27,639
Mega Man Forte was created before Shadow
the Hedgehog, and unlike Shadow,

701
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,199
as an auto cannon and doesn't feature
in games. That suck. Here's some

702
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:36,280
money though, X thank you.
Look, yeah, I know he came

703
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,599
before Shadow. I'm just shadow energy. That's just like, oh, this

704
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:44,119
is this is a Mega Man's shadow, like, yes, absolutely, like

705
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,880
he's he's a bad character. I
do not like bass or bass or whatever.

706
00:43:47,199 --> 00:43:51,559
It's base. Yeah, like it's
all music things. Yeah. Bryce

707
00:43:51,559 --> 00:43:54,760
Gilbert says Batshit Prediction. Actors from
the show are gonna come on stage at

708
00:43:54,840 --> 00:44:00,400
Last of Us Part three reveal and
announced they are playing new characters. Right,

709
00:44:01,639 --> 00:44:04,800
No, I don't know. That's
difficult because yeah, you're gonna have

710
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,719
to recast them, Sash. A
lot of those characters are aged and are

711
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:14,599
dead now. But us they're expensive, right, you don't need to do

712
00:44:14,639 --> 00:44:17,800
that. You got you got your
homies there. I think you misread that.

713
00:44:19,079 --> 00:44:22,000
I think the person people, yeah'll
bring them as to people, but

714
00:44:22,079 --> 00:44:25,000
he would still like why pay them? Yeah? I don't think so.

715
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,559
I don't think. I don't think
you need to do that. I think

716
00:44:27,599 --> 00:44:30,480
we just got a new one from
Dan. Okay, we gotta do one

717
00:44:30,519 --> 00:44:35,559
from uh uh oh, Bryce Gilbert
just set in the same one twice,

718
00:44:35,599 --> 00:44:37,599
But thank you, Bryce, I
appreciate it. And then Dan Park says

719
00:44:37,639 --> 00:44:42,760
what animal depictions would a new Mega
man X use if a new one is

720
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,400
on its way, I don't know
which ones it has used in the past,

721
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,679
Mike, so I have to leave
this to you. Well, let's

722
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:51,840
use a lot of them, and
trust me, there's a quite a few

723
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,440
I don't remember because they're from like
Mega Man X six or X seven,

724
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:59,400
So who gives a shit? So
I think they could do pretty much anything

725
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:00,679
they want to. I don't know
what a fun theme would be. All

726
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:08,800
the sexiest animals? How about yeah, only foxes apparently? Yeah, there

727
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:14,000
you go, Sean, that's for
you. All right, that's it for

728
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,360
super chests for now. If you
guys have more super chats, we are

729
00:45:15,519 --> 00:45:20,400
happy to read those on the air. We will get to them all before

730
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,079
the end of the show. But
I think it's game time. It is

731
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:29,400
game time, yes, So how
are you doing this, Sean? Like,

732
00:45:29,599 --> 00:45:31,119
do you have like the list of
games that we just tell you what

733
00:45:31,639 --> 00:45:35,599
our guess is, our lovely presentation
pulled up. I'll look at this,

734
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,760
he does. All right, all
the listeners will We're back right after this.

735
00:45:39,559 --> 00:45:44,400
We're back obs crashed. But that
doesn't matter. We can still do

736
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,239
a podcast. Mike, I think
you had something on your mind. I

737
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:51,679
forgot to talk about Peter Mahlanu.
What do we even? I mean,

738
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:53,719
we're just gonna do the same jokes
we did fifteen years ago. Yeah,

739
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:58,039
I put it in the description for
the YouTube video. Guys, like,

740
00:45:58,039 --> 00:46:01,239
what else is Jeff gonna talk about? He never passes by an opportunity to

741
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:06,159
make fun of Peter macause I don't
actually ask you what we're talking about.

742
00:46:06,199 --> 00:46:10,639
It just kind of assumed, yeah, something, Yeah, Peter Malanu is

743
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:15,199
making he did he say what it
is, because here's what he's talking.

744
00:46:15,599 --> 00:46:16,679
He says, that's something we've never
seen before. So it must be a

745
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:21,639
good game from Peter Molineu. Of
course, Uh, you know, he's

746
00:46:21,639 --> 00:46:25,440
made good game. I respect that
he is still doing that same sales pitch,

747
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:30,559
that he's still running the same old
old community. Yeah, just thought,

748
00:46:30,559 --> 00:46:34,039
just like I'm just gonna try to
make a fun video game. No,

749
00:46:34,039 --> 00:46:37,079
no, still it's gonna change everything. No growth as a person,

750
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:42,320
no changing, just still doing the
same old song and dance. Fuck yeah,

751
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,239
Peter Malaneu. How old is Peter
Malan Because that's a guy who looked

752
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:46,760
like he was sixty, like fifteen
years again, right, well, and

753
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:51,760
he looked old when he was like
making populous and stuff. Um, he

754
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,519
probably is sixty now sixty issue can't
be surprised for him. I don't know

755
00:46:54,559 --> 00:46:58,320
what what else do we do about
this? Mike, just actually fable the

756
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,239
ride to that being incredible? That
would rule. That would actually be that

757
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:06,480
we found out that game is like
ten hours long, right yes, because

758
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:07,440
we were like how long could that
be? And we're like, that's probably

759
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:12,880
like four hours at long at the
longest two hours. Yeah hours, what

760
00:47:13,159 --> 00:47:15,599
are you talking about? Um?
I would love it if it was a

761
00:47:15,599 --> 00:47:19,880
game where when you started up and
it had one of those terms of services,

762
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,440
it's just this game you have to
agree this game is not on rails,

763
00:47:22,519 --> 00:47:25,480
and then click on the box and
they hit agreed and then it is

764
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:29,320
on rails. I would very much
like, Hey, Nick Turbo sentence superd

765
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,519
say talk about black Flag, Mike, Yeah, there's that rumor that they're

766
00:47:31,519 --> 00:47:35,800
making a Black Flag remake, and
that's kind of weird. Yeah. Um,

767
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,920
apparently they have like what eleven or
fifteen Assassin's Creed projects in the works,

768
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:44,000
so of course there they're remaking Assassin's
Creed Black Flag if that's true.

769
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,599
Um, yeah, because they remastered
like all of the two games, and

770
00:47:47,599 --> 00:47:52,119
they remastered assass to Creed three,
even which wasn't that popular, right,

771
00:47:52,159 --> 00:47:54,320
So I wonder if you know if
this is actually remake or just a remaster

772
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:58,039
to get it out on modern platforms, to make it so you can play

773
00:47:58,039 --> 00:48:00,280
it on Switch. That means that
game? What's even the difference like,

774
00:48:00,639 --> 00:48:04,000
because like, for for me,
it feels like that game, Like what

775
00:48:04,199 --> 00:48:07,159
you remake it, it's just gonna
look how I remember it? So yeah,

776
00:48:07,199 --> 00:48:10,320
I don't know how much does it
really need? Right it is a

777
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:14,280
Crisis Core. I bet it looks
a lot like that, but for Crisis

778
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:19,679
Core going from being the PSP game
to going to being like a modern game.

779
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,440
Flags on Switch already? Fuck me? Never mad it is boy remake?

780
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:27,639
Then what why? Because if they
put a lot of Assassins Create games

781
00:48:27,639 --> 00:48:30,760
out on Switch, I think Black
Flag come to Switch. It was like

782
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,239
I think they did black, Black, fag and rogue. It's like a

783
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,519
two did you just said it this
time? Oh? Did I? Did

784
00:48:37,559 --> 00:48:40,159
I just do it? I'd think
so it's I'd like to apologize to all

785
00:48:40,159 --> 00:48:46,119
our listeners out there for my dumb
feel better about the time I accidentally wha

786
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:52,159
we talk? Why you should point
it out? You should just let it

787
00:48:52,199 --> 00:48:57,559
go because it even the skills now
now see it happened to anybody. No,

788
00:48:57,679 --> 00:48:59,840
he did it? Okay, maybe
I'm just hearing what I want to

789
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:01,199
hear. Jeff. I bet Jeff
did it. That's a better person than

790
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:07,239
me. Um, let's stop talking
about that game recorded on the internet so

791
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,199
we'll never know. Uh. Hey, we got a game here, Game

792
00:49:09,199 --> 00:49:14,440
mess Metacritic Q three predictions. I'm
gonna hand it over to our host.

793
00:49:15,639 --> 00:49:20,639
I hate this fucking show. All
right, we have part two of this

794
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:25,480
segment that we introduced last week.
Uh, the quarter three predictions for the

795
00:49:25,559 --> 00:49:30,679
Uncharted Wolf in the Communities Metacritic prediction
game that does every quarter for us.

796
00:49:30,519 --> 00:49:37,320
As always, this slide show is
executive produced by Benji Bob Coochimo. Sure

797
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,920
of course. All right, so
this time around, y'all are gonna get

798
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:45,719
a list of eleven games come out
in the third quarter of the year.

799
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:50,599
The goal is to get closer to
the actual Metacritic score that ends up with

800
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,320
closer. So try that this time
instead what you did last time. Oh

801
00:49:57,039 --> 00:50:05,400
god, we're starting out right a
sore winner. If you get closer than

802
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,599
your point, you will get one
point. If you predict the score exactly

803
00:50:07,679 --> 00:50:12,239
right, you get two points.
The score will be determined by the platform

804
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,119
that gets the most reviews, And
if you don't think a game will come

805
00:50:15,159 --> 00:50:17,960
out by the end of the quarter, you can simply say will not release

806
00:50:19,039 --> 00:50:22,400
and you'll get double the points.
So that being said, quick summary.

807
00:50:23,039 --> 00:50:30,239
Quarter one Mike one and the community
Alex and Superharman. Quarter two Jeff one

808
00:50:30,559 --> 00:50:35,199
the community of Screaming Man. So
the way Wolf does this is he doesn't

809
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,320
like comeback factors, you know X
factor V trigger all that he's not a

810
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:42,719
fan, So as the winner of
the last quarter, Jeff will be predicting.

811
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,000
First. That being said, I
need both of you guys to tell

812
00:50:46,039 --> 00:50:53,079
me what you think. XO Primal
is going to begin on metacrect dot com.

813
00:50:53,199 --> 00:50:58,960
This is tough. I thought about
like all these I'm like, I

814
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,320
don't want to think about these two
much. Extra Primal is one where it

815
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:06,519
is because people are having fun with
it. But also I think if you

816
00:51:06,559 --> 00:51:07,639
were to us, if you were
a signing someone to review a game,

817
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:09,800
right, go get on Extra Primal, I think there's a strong chance to

818
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:15,840
be like, yeah, it's not
for me. I'm gonna go with a

819
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:22,599
seventy nine. Okay, that's about
where I was thinking. It's a bit

820
00:51:22,639 --> 00:51:27,239
of a Capcom glow up factor.
I think it's gonna be some people are

821
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:30,440
gonna be whoa, it's on game
pass and a better run that runs well.

822
00:51:32,519 --> 00:51:36,400
I could see, yeah, I
could. I could see going lower.

823
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,119
I could see if I go lower, I could go a little bit

824
00:51:38,159 --> 00:51:40,320
lower if I go high. I'm
just gonna go buy a little bit,

825
00:51:40,599 --> 00:51:44,920
right, I'll give my look,
I love my Capcom. I'll give them

826
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,199
a little bit for the doubt here. I will say an eighty fair Okay,

827
00:51:47,519 --> 00:51:50,840
So I take you neither you guys
played in any of the betas or

828
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:52,920
anything like, yeah, I've heard
good things because yeah I did, and

829
00:51:53,039 --> 00:51:55,559
uh yeah it was pretty fun.
It's like it's kind of mindless fun.

830
00:51:55,599 --> 00:51:59,199
So I went to paid sixty four
buys a game pass game. I'm gonna

831
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,119
last play this with friends, play
that much, all right? Game number

832
00:52:02,159 --> 00:52:07,400
two, Pick Man four. Now
we are alternating here, so Mike,

833
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:12,159
you get to pick first. Yeah. Pickments three got very good reviews,

834
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:19,039
even on the WIIU. So this
this is going to be high. I

835
00:52:19,039 --> 00:52:21,760
don't know. I don't think it's
gonna be astronomically high. I'd be surprised

836
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:24,360
if is he even nineties, even
though it could do that, I think

837
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:36,440
it's going to be more like in
eighty so pretty say eighty nine, okay,

838
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:42,039
Jeff, Yeah, I Mike is
right. These games do review pretty

839
00:52:42,079 --> 00:52:45,719
well. I think they've also been
trending up. Um. I really like

840
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:47,360
that demo. I think that it
got a lot of the craft out of

841
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:51,000
the way of like with the stop
and start with the text bubbles, and

842
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:52,840
I think once people are actually playing
the real game, they'll be past that

843
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:57,119
and they'll just jump right into it, and I think that'll help. Um,

844
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,599
I don't. I don't think it's
going to do higher than eighty nine,

845
00:53:00,639 --> 00:53:02,360
though that's what you said, Mike. Eighty nine, Yes, eighty

846
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:06,679
nine. I'm gonna go with eighty
six. I think it's I think I

847
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,440
gets right in that just a little
bit lower, but I think it's gonna

848
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:13,320
be eighty six. Is might be
eighty seven, but I'm gonna go Actually,

849
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,920
can I let me do eighty seven? Sorry, I'd like double guess

850
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:17,960
myself, but I'm gonna do eighty
seven. Yeah, we haven't moved on

851
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,239
to the next game. That's okay, all eighty seven, thank you?

852
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,320
Okay, that is locked in now
though, going on to game three,

853
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:28,639
Jeff, I need to tell me
anything. Disney Illusion The Island is gonna

854
00:53:28,679 --> 00:53:32,320
get. This is another tough one
because this is a family game. It's

855
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:38,039
a game made for kids to play
with kids. And I wonder if after

856
00:53:38,199 --> 00:53:44,679
the fourth level, without combat,
without direct combat, if people reviewing this

857
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,039
game are going to get a little
bit bored with it. So I'm gonna

858
00:53:47,159 --> 00:53:51,000
go with And this is not like
a reflection of how I felt, because

859
00:53:51,039 --> 00:53:54,280
I enjoyed my time with it.
I'm gonna go with seventy six. Yeah.

860
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:59,519
I think it's gonna do better than
that. I think there's enough platforming

861
00:53:59,559 --> 00:54:02,840
stuff there that people won't miss that
too much. I think it's going to

862
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:06,280
charm a lot of people. I
think it's gonna be astronomically high, but

863
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:10,559
I think it's going to be more
like an eighty two. I think if

864
00:54:10,559 --> 00:54:15,719
it does like Raymond Legends numbers or
like a like a diet version of Raymond

865
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,840
Legends, I think eighty two is
completely fair. Gass, Yeah, I

866
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:23,360
think it still seems raisonable. Yeah, all right. Game number four balters

867
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:29,559
Gate three, Mike, Yeah,
this is rough because Divinity Original Sin two,

868
00:54:29,559 --> 00:54:32,719
which is probably the best comparison here, did really well. People really

869
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:37,000
liked that. There's different expectations with
it being a Balds game, but people

870
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:43,559
have liked that early access version of
it already, so I think it's going

871
00:54:43,559 --> 00:54:49,639
to do really well. Hmm.
Like like Divinity Original Sin was like nineties

872
00:54:49,679 --> 00:54:52,480
something that it seems weird. It
seems unlikely to be that high. To

873
00:54:52,519 --> 00:54:59,159
me, people have some kind of
issue. I want to go eighty six.

874
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:06,360
Okay, that is like right in
the range of what my original guest

875
00:55:06,519 --> 00:55:08,360
was when I like wrote down some
numbers when when we got this list last

876
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:15,440
week. But I'm like, now
I'm second guessing myself. I think Mike's

877
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:21,480
recent name is pretty good. Where
Divinity Originals into very well reviewed, this

878
00:55:21,519 --> 00:55:24,679
game could have different expectations. Cereogramy
people who want something from a boulders Gate

879
00:55:24,679 --> 00:55:27,880
game because it's Boulder's Gate and this
game is probably not gonna give it to

880
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,960
him, very very specific small things, but I doin't gonna be enough to

881
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,000
put it some people off. But
I don't think it's gonna be that much

882
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:36,400
lower. I think I'm gonna go
with a ninety even. Yeah, I

883
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,440
gues's gonna do very well. Okay, I could see it all right.

884
00:55:39,559 --> 00:55:46,000
Game number five, Immortals of a
Vum. Jeff, how you feeling about

885
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:51,880
this one? Just I'm not feeling
anything at all. This is it's so

886
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:57,719
hard because it looks so boring.
And then I've heard some I haven't played

887
00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,280
it, but I've heard some people
play it and they're like, yeah,

888
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,079
it's fun once you start playing it. So what do I do with that?

889
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:07,159
Uh? I think it's gonna be
a you know what, I'm gonna

890
00:56:07,159 --> 00:56:09,480
going in the Gut seventy four.
I was gonna go Hire, but I'm

891
00:56:09,519 --> 00:56:15,920
gonna go in the Gut seventy four. There's a part of me that wanted

892
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:17,519
to say, I don't think this
game's coming out, But I don't think

893
00:56:17,519 --> 00:56:20,840
it's gonna it's supposed to come out
in August. I think it's gonna get

894
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,519
delayed that much, if at all. Yeah, gosh, it's this is

895
00:56:23,519 --> 00:56:29,519
hard because I keep looking this game
and I see all the stuff you need

896
00:56:29,519 --> 00:56:35,440
for a video game. I got
graph fix and action and characters, all

897
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,000
the things are there, Yet I
feel nothing, even like it looks like

898
00:56:38,079 --> 00:56:42,679
snappy. Um gosh, I think, Jeff, what did Jeff say,

899
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:47,000
seventy four four? I'm gonna say
seventy one? Okay, Yeah, it

900
00:56:47,039 --> 00:56:53,639
looks like, you know, BioShock
without the heart maybe something like that.

901
00:56:54,199 --> 00:56:58,440
So e a shit, mcgat my
tense I then you mean tensex. Yeah,

902
00:56:59,039 --> 00:57:05,280
like sensory right, yes, game
number six. Mikey, what are

903
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:09,760
you feeling about Armored Core six Fires
of Rubicon. Yeah, this is definitely

904
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:14,360
gonna get Uh. This is definitely
gonna be the best reviewed armor Core.

905
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:19,360
It's gone big. I think I'm
getting big shine. Uh. Even though

906
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,320
it's going to be very different from
like a lot of what we associate with

907
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:25,800
from software, there's gonna be enough
of just that presentatiou stuff that people are

908
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:30,360
gonna like. I think it's gonna
probably the prettiest looking from software game ever.

909
00:57:30,159 --> 00:57:34,719
Um, and I think because people
are going to want to like this

910
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,360
they are going to forgive some of
the Met game stuff that would normally throw

911
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:42,159
them off. I think this is
probably going to do very well. I'm

912
00:57:42,159 --> 00:57:50,920
gonna say a ninety one, okay, Jeff, Yeah, I I I

913
00:57:51,079 --> 00:57:54,199
just I saw a theater demo and
it looks it looks promising. The art

914
00:57:54,360 --> 00:58:00,880
is very good. It looks like
a big important from software game. Um.

915
00:58:01,519 --> 00:58:05,519
I do think it'll turn off some
players who want it to be more

916
00:58:05,599 --> 00:58:08,000
like the other Frontsoft games, And
then I wonder if the Armored core fans

917
00:58:08,039 --> 00:58:13,199
are there'll be enough of them to
like boost that back up. I'm not

918
00:58:13,199 --> 00:58:15,840
gonna go as high as Mikey.
I'm I'm gonna go within eighty seven.

919
00:58:16,159 --> 00:58:22,519
I think I'm gonna go like Dark
Souls like three area sort of scores.

920
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:28,079
Okay, that sounds all right for
what it's worth. I am, you

921
00:58:28,119 --> 00:58:30,960
know, infamously not a Souls guy, and I'm also not, despite being

922
00:58:31,039 --> 00:58:37,159
to sci fi, a big like
more hardcore Met guy. But this game

923
00:58:37,199 --> 00:58:39,559
looks dope to me. I'm liking
everything I'm seeing, so I definitely think

924
00:58:39,639 --> 00:58:44,159
this one could hit. Got a
really good look. Yeah, definitely.

925
00:58:44,519 --> 00:58:46,880
Was that an ugly switch MEC game? The kind of came and went,

926
00:58:49,639 --> 00:58:52,039
yes the game. I only know
because I was the first game that they

927
00:58:52,119 --> 00:58:58,039
launched a hory split pad pro.
Yes, exactly the logo. Yes,

928
00:58:58,599 --> 00:59:00,719
is that game out on Steam?
Yeah? It came to see him one

929
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:07,559
year later for whatever reason, I
should should try that and I should all

930
00:59:07,639 --> 00:59:10,400
right, well game number seven.
I didn't realized this one was coming out

931
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:15,000
in this quarter, So I'm excited. See if Stars, Jeff, Yes,

932
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:21,920
See if Stars is gonna get an
eighty one. H I hope,

933
00:59:22,039 --> 00:59:24,519
I hope it's like a ninety.
These games always, I think, have

934
00:59:24,519 --> 00:59:28,039
a lot of promise and then they're
like, they're pretty good, but they're

935
00:59:28,079 --> 00:59:30,519
not gonna be as I mean,
it's an indie game, and as we

936
00:59:30,559 --> 00:59:32,800
know, the press hates indie games. Oh yeah, absolutely punish Yes,

937
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:38,559
I mean the evidence is right.
Yeah. I think that these indie games

938
00:59:38,599 --> 00:59:44,960
that promise to like call back to
the golden era of sixteen bit jerfpeges guys

939
00:59:45,039 --> 00:59:51,440
actually saying indie games, you ask, we do we get a lot of

940
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:53,719
these games out. This is gonna
be like Chrono Trigger, and of course

941
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:57,960
it's never like Crun Trigger. I
think See of Stars is definitely the most

942
00:59:58,039 --> 01:00:01,000
promising of these we've seen in and
and this is this company that made The

943
01:00:01,039 --> 01:00:06,440
Messenger, which I really liked.
Uh yeah, Chain Echoes kind of broke

944
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,519
that trend of bits. So I'm
gonna throw a little bit more faith behind

945
01:00:09,719 --> 01:00:15,119
see If stars and say in eighty
four, I think that's actually pretty good.

946
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:21,519
Yeah, like mid eighties is usually
where these nostalgia players games tend to

947
01:00:21,599 --> 01:00:25,079
end up south there. That sounds
right, ye, okay, Game number

948
01:00:25,199 --> 01:00:32,239
eight from Our Lord and Savior Todd
himself got a Starfield God hour there should

949
01:00:32,239 --> 01:00:35,679
I should say, I think it's
game delayed just to really fun with people.

950
01:00:36,239 --> 01:00:37,679
Oh my god, No, you
can't do that. The reddit threads

951
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:45,239
might think about the rudder threads Jeff
grub set that Stars this is hard,

952
01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:51,360
you might I think it's me first. Yeah, yeah, this is difficult

953
01:00:51,519 --> 01:00:57,639
because I feel like expectations are sky
high after that presentation. I think the

954
01:00:57,719 --> 01:01:00,360
fact that they won people about the
thirtys thing, I think no one's going

955
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:04,159
to care about that. It looks
so good if it can deliver on that

956
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:07,840
promise. And you know, we've
we've we've had less, we've had pretty

957
01:01:07,039 --> 01:01:12,760
quote unquote messy. Uh but as
the games before that's still reviewed very well.

958
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:15,239
Um, you know, even like
Fallow four, which I kind of

959
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:17,000
should on a little bit, It's
still reviewed fine. Fall seventy six is

960
01:01:17,039 --> 01:01:22,800
obviously an outlier, but Skyrim was
a big deal. This should be I

961
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:28,679
think this should be huge. I'm
gonna say in ninety two two got it?

962
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:36,119
Oh that's a really good guess.
Um. Yeah, I'm like debating,

963
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:37,920
do I do I want to like
have faith in in this game?

964
01:01:38,079 --> 01:01:40,920
Last time I felt I think people
really want to like it too. He

965
01:01:42,079 --> 01:01:44,519
can help, yeah, And I'm
like, I want now I want to

966
01:01:44,519 --> 01:01:46,480
have faith in it. The last
time I sort of like had this much

967
01:01:47,199 --> 01:01:51,119
hope in a game, it was
Breath of the Wild, and it's like,

968
01:01:51,239 --> 01:01:53,199
man, then I got I like
believed in that faith and then they

969
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:57,320
delivered on it and it was even
better than I was what I was expecting.

970
01:01:57,519 --> 01:01:59,480
Do I really think that's going to
happen here? I don't know.

971
01:02:00,039 --> 01:02:02,599
Probably not, But what's the harm
in habit a little bit of faith in

972
01:02:02,679 --> 01:02:07,800
that? So I'm gonna go.
I'm gonna go whole hog. And this

973
01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:09,199
was not my person, this is
not my plan. I'm changing it on

974
01:02:09,239 --> 01:02:12,920
the fly here. I did have
eighty eight written down here and I think

975
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,599
I think that number's way It's entirely
possible. But I think I'm gonna go

976
01:02:15,599 --> 01:02:17,679
with the ninety four. I'm gonna
go with the ninety four. Yes,

977
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,800
oh interesting, Okay, okay,
gotcha, gotcha? All right, Well

978
01:02:23,119 --> 01:02:25,760
we're going back there away then,
Jeff, you need to tell me we

979
01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:34,199
think lies of P is gonna get
Uh, I'm going to say a flat

980
01:02:34,679 --> 01:02:37,360
eight zero and eighty four lies of
P. I think it's gonna have its

981
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:42,719
fans. I think it's gonna be
um, It's gonna impress a lot of

982
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,199
people, and then I think there
was gonna be a lot of people who

983
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:49,960
are going to judge it harshly compared
to a Frond game. Mhm hm.

984
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,199
Did you look at the woe long
Metacritic also see that it got an eighty

985
01:02:53,239 --> 01:02:55,760
one? Is that where you pulled
that one up? I originally had eighty

986
01:02:55,800 --> 01:03:00,239
one written down here because I looked
at wo Long. Yes, that's exactly

987
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:04,159
right. Yeah, I think I
think this is gonna be more promising.

988
01:03:04,239 --> 01:03:07,320
That people really liked that demo,
right, there was a demo, and

989
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:09,400
I think people like it. Yes, I think people like people liked it.

990
01:03:09,559 --> 01:03:12,800
Yeah, they they liked it.
More on they thought they would.

991
01:03:13,119 --> 01:03:15,280
Yeah, I do think a great
Jeff, there is still stealing on a

992
01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:21,920
lot of these Souls likes that aren't
straight up souls games. Uh, I'm

993
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:25,280
gonna be slightly more optimistic here and
say, I don't know if I want

994
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:29,079
to be too much more optimistic.
I think I'll just say eighty two.

995
01:03:29,119 --> 01:03:31,199
Actually, I'll really hug up the
Jeff on this one. Cool, Okay,

996
01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:35,000
I think that sounds right to me
too, because this is in some

997
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,599
ways it does kind of feel like
that we're just talking about like nostalgia plays

998
01:03:37,639 --> 01:03:43,719
and stuff. It's going for the
blood Born, Yeah, hiding it a

999
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:47,400
little bit. I mean the glance
test that's blood Born yep, yep.

1000
01:03:47,599 --> 01:03:52,079
All right, Well, Mike gets
first pick, and I think he's gonna

1001
01:03:52,159 --> 01:03:59,159
like doing it on this one.
Mortal Kombat one. Okay. I almost

1002
01:03:59,159 --> 01:04:01,119
wish I would second on this one
because I think because I like, I

1003
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:05,880
know some of the apprehensions of the
fighting game community on this if that's going

1004
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:10,760
to be reflected in review scores,
I don't know, but I know that

1005
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:15,000
some people are worried that movements seem
slow, jumping seem slow, things like

1006
01:04:15,039 --> 01:04:17,320
that, things that I probably aren't
going to affect on the scores. The

1007
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:21,199
Lortal Combat games have been really good, and this one is looking really nice.

1008
01:04:21,559 --> 01:04:26,960
I think critics are going to like
it quite a lot. There's still

1009
01:04:27,199 --> 01:04:30,639
there's still something of a stilling Mortal
Kombat is there. I'm going to say,

1010
01:04:31,559 --> 01:04:33,480
I don't think it's good. Review
as well Street of their six I'm

1011
01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:40,000
going to say in eighty nine okay, uh yeah, I'm writing that same

1012
01:04:40,119 --> 01:04:43,559
zone. But I don't I don't
think I want to go lower because I

1013
01:04:43,719 --> 01:04:45,719
think that this game is going to
pop off with critics in a really strong

1014
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:48,639
way. I think it's going to
be, like I gues, it's gonna

1015
01:04:48,639 --> 01:04:55,320
be cool to like Mortal Kombat again
in a way that even even after eleven

1016
01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:58,559
it wasn't necessarily like it was still
obviously there's a lot of people who love

1017
01:04:58,599 --> 01:05:00,000
it. I think Mortal Kombat one, it's gone. It kind of asked

1018
01:05:00,039 --> 01:05:03,960
everything going for it in terms of
what a critical audience is going to like.

1019
01:05:04,039 --> 01:05:08,039
So I'm gonna go the ninety.
I'm gonna I'm gonna give it a

1020
01:05:08,119 --> 01:05:15,280
ninety. Okay. Um. I
think I think it's interesting because this game

1021
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:16,760
people are of two minds. Because
you have the people you know, like

1022
01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,159
Jeff you've been talking about you said
you really liked what you play at a

1023
01:05:19,199 --> 01:05:25,000
stiff Yes. Then the FDC,
Yeah, people are lukewarm on this game.

1024
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:28,519
They're like it feels weird, like
there's stuff they could iron out before

1025
01:05:28,559 --> 01:05:31,239
release. But as a Christian point
on the chat, the FTC and review

1026
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:34,880
in this game, so I think
that's Jeff's got a reaction on a lot

1027
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:38,639
of this stuff is probably how it's
can end up paying out. Well.

1028
01:05:39,079 --> 01:05:41,800
That being said, we're at our
final game for the evening. Jeff,

1029
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:49,039
you're going first on pay Day three
seventy nine, Okay, go on.

1030
01:05:50,639 --> 01:05:57,199
Uh yeah. I think that these
games don't need review scories. Even this

1031
01:05:57,320 --> 01:05:59,639
is a game that's not gonna it's
not gonna matter what how it reviews.

1032
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:04,760
What's gonna matter is that word of
mouth. And I think at launch it'll

1033
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:09,719
be it'll have its problems. It's
not gonna feel complete. It's going it's

1034
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:13,119
gonna probably be a pretty substantial game
in a lot of ways, but I

1035
01:06:13,159 --> 01:06:16,400
think it's gonna annoy reviewers in some
very key ways, and so I think

1036
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:19,199
that's gonna hold it back at launch, and that won't matter in the long

1037
01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:21,920
run. But at launch, when
we're gonna have this review score, it's

1038
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:25,920
going to be about a seventy nine. Yeah, I agree. I don't

1039
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:27,719
think this is gonna be a game
for critics. I think it's going to

1040
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:30,440
review worse than paid eight two.
I've thought even a little lower and say

1041
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:35,800
seventy five. That sounds right,
sorry five? Okay, Well, that

1042
01:06:36,079 --> 01:06:41,480
being said, if y'all in the
community want to play, I will be

1043
01:06:41,599 --> 01:06:45,920
putting up a thread in the podcast
producer's channel of the discord, which from

1044
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,480
the remindering get in on if you
go at patreon dot com, slash games

1045
01:06:48,559 --> 01:06:53,679
or become a YouTube member and you
can play along with the boys here throughout

1046
01:06:54,159 --> 01:07:00,320
Q three. So that being said, if I get this done correctly year,

1047
01:07:00,039 --> 01:07:04,639
I do believe I can bring up
a nice little summary for us where

1048
01:07:04,719 --> 01:07:09,440
the audio listeners, I'm gonna rd
off to you at the end of our

1049
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:15,239
predictions here game number one Exo Primal
Jeff took seventy nine, Mike went one

1050
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:18,519
higher at eighty. Pickman four Jeff
one with eighty seven, Mike one with

1051
01:07:18,679 --> 01:07:25,079
eighty nine. Disney Illusion Island one
of the bigger discrepancies here. Jeff at

1052
01:07:25,119 --> 01:07:31,360
seventy six, Mica eighty two three
A little bit maybe. Jeff went when

1053
01:07:31,519 --> 01:07:36,320
ninety on Balder's Gap three. Mike
went with eighty six Immortals of a VM.

1054
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:40,159
Both of the guys were cool on
this one. Jeff was seventy four,

1055
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:44,119
Mike at seventy one armored cores six. On the r hand, they

1056
01:07:44,159 --> 01:07:47,599
both went high Jeff at eighty seven, Mike and ninety one see if stars

1057
01:07:47,599 --> 01:07:53,760
were somewhere in the middle with Jeff
at eighty one, Mica eighty four Starfield,

1058
01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:59,480
the boys have faith and mister Howard
ninety four from Jeff ninety two from

1059
01:07:59,559 --> 01:08:01,599
Mike, Jeff, for the love
of God, wherever you're typing, please

1060
01:08:01,639 --> 01:08:10,239
stop typing. Sorry, Jeff eighty
My Kawenna lit hire at eighty two.

1061
01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:14,719
Was that a keyboard? What was
that? That's a gamer browser. It's

1062
01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:21,760
the gamer browser. Oh my god, it needs to make any Oh my

1063
01:08:23,239 --> 01:08:32,760
fucking holy mortal combat one. Jeff
o win ninety Mike undercut, well technically,

1064
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:38,920
Jeff overcut him. Mike went eighty
nine. Payday three, Jeff was

1065
01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:42,199
seventy nine. Mike went with seventy
five. So there you go. That's

1066
01:08:42,199 --> 01:08:44,920
the boys prediction. If y'all want
to make your predictions, you can do

1067
01:08:45,079 --> 01:08:47,840
so after the live recording here.
Uh, let's do this now, Mike.

1068
01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:53,199
Are there any of these games that
I've defended that you gave a high

1069
01:08:53,239 --> 01:08:57,800
score to higher score two that if
you going to embarrass you again? No,

1070
01:08:58,079 --> 01:09:00,359
there's no. There's nothing egregious here
the game that you've been shitting on

1071
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:05,640
for or you've been defending for a
whole year and then suddenly thought it was

1072
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:09,720
gonna do worse than me. There's
no gollums here. There shouldn't be any

1073
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:13,680
gums are red falls here. I'm
not expecting it's weird that we had multiple

1074
01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:16,119
games in like the thirties last time. Um. I mean, look,

1075
01:09:16,199 --> 01:09:20,239
maybe Immortals of Avium will surprise us
and be absolutely right, but neither of

1076
01:09:20,359 --> 01:09:24,000
us are, Like even have I
ever talked in any sort of positive way

1077
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:26,920
about that. We Honestly, I
don't think about Immortals of Avium. That's

1078
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,720
where it's at. Yeah, so
I don't really have three. I don't

1079
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,000
think about that. Yep, not
at all. Sean, thank you so

1080
01:09:32,159 --> 01:09:35,159
much, Wolf Uncharted Wilf, thank
you so much for putting that together.

1081
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:40,560
We will have Benji Bop. Thank
you, Executive producer Benji bop Kojima.

1082
01:09:41,239 --> 01:09:45,039
We will have the results for that
in three months at the end of the

1083
01:09:45,119 --> 01:09:47,560
quarter as we're going into the holidays, So be sure to tune in every

1084
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:50,960
week as we get updates from wolf
on on what Me and Mike guests and

1085
01:09:51,039 --> 01:09:56,039
who was closest as we go along. In the meantime, though, let's

1086
01:09:56,079 --> 01:10:00,680
go ahead and get into our Mount
Rushmore of arcades for it's games, unless

1087
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:05,119
Mikey, you need a bathroom break. Mikey's bladders holding on? All right,

1088
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:10,079
that's that's great news. This is
what I was typing. I was

1089
01:10:10,119 --> 01:10:13,479
getting this stuff all said our mom. Yes, your mom is the number

1090
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:16,159
one arcade sports games. So for
people who aren't aware, occasionally we do

1091
01:10:16,279 --> 01:10:19,079
a Mount Rushmore. Uh. There, it broke that, but I can

1092
01:10:19,159 --> 01:10:24,520
fix that real quick. Here we
go and there we go where we try

1093
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:30,079
to pick the four most emblematic games
for whatever we're trying to accomplish here this

1094
01:10:30,119 --> 01:10:32,600
time it's arcade sports games. Uh, you know, just like the actual

1095
01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,600
Mount Rushmore. Mikey, do you
want to start us off here with any

1096
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:41,279
other things that come to mind?
Immediately? Yeah, NBA Jam, it's

1097
01:10:41,319 --> 01:10:45,479
pretty immediate. I know, you
know, maybe there's like better versions out

1098
01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:48,119
of the future, like te or
even hang Time, but I think just

1099
01:10:48,239 --> 01:10:54,079
base NBA Jam kind of covers it. It was this giant deal, huge

1100
01:10:54,159 --> 01:10:58,479
arcade. Hit was part of Midway
just being the absolute king of arcades in

1101
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:02,279
the nineties along Mortal Kombat. Still
something I think a lot of people missed

1102
01:11:02,279 --> 01:11:06,520
today, specifically this kind of game. God, yeah, it's just absolutely

1103
01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:10,760
the first one I think of.
Yeah, I'm right there with you.

1104
01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:14,920
I think the second game I think
of it occupies a similar space, and

1105
01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:18,079
I think that's going to be the
trouble with this thing. But NFL Blitz.

1106
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:25,760
NFL Blitz is probably gonna end up
on here. But it really is

1107
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:28,520
just like hey, NBA Jam,
but but with football. But I guess

1108
01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:31,960
that's what this whole category is.
Yeah, it's all I mean, yeah,

1109
01:11:32,319 --> 01:11:34,640
it almost does kind of also have
to be there. It was a

1110
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:39,520
giant deal. It really was just
this but like the next generation of kind

1111
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:43,960
of arcade hardware and taking that idea
to football. Sadly, when they tried

1112
01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:46,000
it with baseball, they made like
one test arcade cabin Afford and it didn't

1113
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:49,680
really take off. But Blitz is
still so good again people, Miss Blitz.

1114
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:53,760
I would love to have that now. Um, I do some questions

1115
01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:58,079
like like what what what is a
sports arcade game? What isn't like we're

1116
01:11:58,079 --> 01:12:01,279
not talking about are we talking about
things? It's like ten eighty snowboarding?

1117
01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:05,920
Is that on arcade? I feel
like that. I feel like if you

1118
01:12:05,960 --> 01:12:10,479
could make an argument for it,
yes, I don't know if it plays

1119
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:13,600
you out, yeah, I don't
know if it. I think punch Out,

1120
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,039
I mean punch Outs literally started as
an arcade sports game, um,

1121
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,840
like racing games, right, Like
that's weird, like that arcade sports like

1122
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:25,399
a tone a USA like kind of
racing games. Because you guys have already

1123
01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:29,199
done that's fair. Oh it makes
sense and I think I think I think

1124
01:12:29,239 --> 01:12:31,680
that's I would have put that in
separate category. Anyhow, here's the here's

1125
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:36,319
the actual problem though. Next is
that like we both love the NBA Street

1126
01:12:36,359 --> 01:12:42,479
Volume two and it's incredible. That's
that too much basketball? I mean we

1127
01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:44,760
coul put it up there for now. I mean it really different now,

1128
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:47,039
yeah, because it is. It
is just kind of like it's clearly like

1129
01:12:47,159 --> 01:12:51,039
taking inspiration from NBA jam and it
is like evolving that idea in a really

1130
01:12:51,079 --> 01:12:56,920
cool way and it's you know,
really really really good. But yeah,

1131
01:12:56,960 --> 01:13:00,880
I don't know if we can get
away of two NBA games off amount rushmore.

1132
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,439
I do have some contributions here from
the community, uh vs, says

1133
01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:09,039
Tony Oks pro skater one plus two
obviously, and I'm uh, I'm one

1134
01:13:09,119 --> 01:13:11,560
with you. Where it's like,
does that feel right for this category?

1135
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:13,960
Is it? Of? It feels
right? Because like I do think of

1136
01:13:14,319 --> 01:13:19,239
extreme sports as something different than Yeah, we sports, we could do a

1137
01:13:19,279 --> 01:13:23,039
whole thing about extreme sports games.
Yeah, I think that's a different genre.

1138
01:13:23,279 --> 01:13:26,640
Okay, Um, well, then
how about current basketball? Mario golf?

1139
01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,199
This one. I kind of do
feel I can make the list.

1140
01:13:30,399 --> 01:13:34,039
It could, But then is that
the right golf game because we have Neo

1141
01:13:34,159 --> 01:13:39,680
Turf Masters for the Neil Jo I
think is really promising for that spot.

1142
01:13:40,319 --> 01:13:43,800
And then you know, I know
it's maybe not. I see if I

1143
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:46,920
wear one, But Golden Tea still
kind of a big deal. It's still

1144
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:51,720
a lot of fun Golden Tea golf, right, Uh, yeah, you're

1145
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:58,079
right, that's like the actual arcade
cabinet sports game that is forever, it's

1146
01:13:58,119 --> 01:14:03,720
always there. Um yeah, I
don't like of these, Um god,

1147
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:06,640
maybe the problem with Mario Golf is
that there's been a bunch of Mario golfs

1148
01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:10,159
and maybe they dilute themselves a little
bit because it's like, well, this

1149
01:14:10,199 --> 01:14:12,560
one has that, and this one
has that, but none of them have

1150
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:16,119
everything. Um. I think Neoturf
Masters is definitely better than Goldtee. I

1151
01:14:16,159 --> 01:14:19,600
don't know how. Unfortunately, I
don't know how many non Boomers know about

1152
01:14:19,680 --> 01:14:24,159
Neoturf Masters. It was one of
my first Switch games. I remember when

1153
01:14:24,199 --> 01:14:28,680
the Arcade Archive game came out of
a version for Switch about that and played

1154
01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:30,800
a ton of Neoturf Masters. I
should boot that up. I love Neo

1155
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:34,279
Great Masters. I'm gonna probably buy
it tonight. Yes, it's on Switch.

1156
01:14:34,359 --> 01:14:36,880
It's great. It's like eight bucks
when it's nonsters. By the way,

1157
01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:42,000
you're you're triggering MYOCD there and Neoturf
Masters. Yes, okay, multiple

1158
01:14:42,079 --> 01:14:45,920
masters, all right, um Neoturf
Master. Um. Okay. You know,

1159
01:14:46,039 --> 01:14:51,279
Jeff, people are always saying not
enough Neo Geo representation at constantly by

1160
01:14:51,319 --> 01:14:56,039
the Neo Geo nites out there.
Yeah. Um, you see that Epeid

1161
01:14:56,239 --> 01:15:01,760
is making a Neo Geo controller game
pan just game pad. Okay, yes,

1162
01:15:02,119 --> 01:15:05,760
it looks pretty good. Okay,
let me see some of these other

1163
01:15:05,840 --> 01:15:12,880
recommendations from our podcast producers. This
one moves me a Technobowl or Super Technobowl.

1164
01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:18,079
I would probably go with Technobowl.
I really this is the first football

1165
01:15:18,159 --> 01:15:24,119
game, and it's like right on
the border between sim and arcade because it

1166
01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:28,720
is very arcady. But it is
eleven on eleven. I think like they

1167
01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:32,039
do try to like make it feel
like real football. Yeah. I almost

1168
01:15:32,079 --> 01:15:34,479
have to defer to you have been
this for some reason. I was just

1169
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:41,600
never much for technobole. Oh my
anys sports games were actually baseball, and

1170
01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:45,439
even then, like I wasn't playing
RBI baseball or like whatever the more popular

1171
01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:48,439
ones was. I was playing Bad
News Baseball, which rules, but it

1172
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,199
is just not popular enough to make
this list. But I want to shout

1173
01:15:51,239 --> 01:15:56,199
out Bad News Baseball, you rule. I'm gonna put Technobowl up there.

1174
01:15:56,199 --> 01:15:58,560
I just already kind of looking at
this list. It feels like it's gonna

1175
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:00,640
be a tough sell to get that
on it. So like unless you replace

1176
01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:04,600
a blitz with it, which maybe
the argument, maybe it doesn't feel right.

1177
01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:08,319
Well, I feel like we will
get yoed at. I think we're

1178
01:16:08,319 --> 01:16:10,399
gonna get yoed at if we don't
have tech Mobile on there. We're gonna

1179
01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:13,359
get yoed at even more if we
don't have NFL Blitz on there. And

1180
01:16:13,399 --> 01:16:15,720
I think I was literally named myself
after a FL blitz. If you tape

1181
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:18,800
off and favor a fucking tech Mobile, I'm going to ring you by the

1182
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:23,720
next makes me want to do it
more a little bit. Of course,

1183
01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:27,880
of course, zoomer Sean doesn't care
about tech Mobile. This is a shocking

1184
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:30,119
here. Okay, hold on,
hold okay, sometimes sometime here. That

1185
01:16:30,239 --> 01:16:34,960
mobile was basically the football sim of
the Ens. Yeah, it's kind of

1186
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:38,600
where I'm at, where it's like
kens. It's the best they could have

1187
01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:44,760
done for sim about the distinction.
Yeah, it was Madden esque before you

1188
01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:46,119
know the Man series took off all
round Zoe, right, I mean,

1189
01:16:46,199 --> 01:16:49,960
you do one hundred yard throws and
and Bo Jackson makes it feel very ard

1190
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:53,479
katy. But that I don't know
if that was a conscious choice so much

1191
01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:56,119
as that was just what they could
do. I mean, compared to Madden,

1192
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,600
there we are, katy. But
but compared to every other football game

1193
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,000
on any yes, pretty SIMMI.
I think Michael Larry has in the chet.

1194
01:17:02,079 --> 01:17:05,119
It's a sim but everything played Arcadie
back then, so it's just like,

1195
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:10,840
exactly the time, is there any
like baseball game you would really considered.

1196
01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:14,079
I love baseball, but it seems
to thrive more when it's doing more

1197
01:17:14,119 --> 01:17:19,439
sim stuff. I don't the bigs. God, I forgot about the bigs.

1198
01:17:19,680 --> 01:17:24,000
What I forgot about the bigs?
I did like the bids? Uh?

1199
01:17:24,319 --> 01:17:30,239
Well, well, baby breaking news
here that will check this, But

1200
01:17:30,359 --> 01:17:33,680
Connor would sit in a super chet
that Eugen Naka has been sentenced to two

1201
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:41,439
and a half years in prison,
h suspended four years. Let's I will

1202
01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:44,640
verify this, Yeah, go for
I was trying to look. Yeah,

1203
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:47,079
I was looking it up and I
can't find like a source for that shows

1204
01:17:47,079 --> 01:17:51,399
a tweet. Yeah, there's a
tweet. So let's let's we'll continue with

1205
01:17:51,439 --> 01:17:55,079
this and then we'll try to shake
this out right now, but that is

1206
01:17:55,159 --> 01:17:59,159
going around. You verify this.
If he goes to prison for two point

1207
01:17:59,239 --> 01:18:01,119
five years, do you want to
travel to Japan when he gets out so

1208
01:18:01,199 --> 01:18:04,279
we can greet him and have a
big party with him and stuff. Jeff,

1209
01:18:04,399 --> 01:18:06,319
No, Okay, I'm gonna do
it. I'll go by myself.

1210
01:18:06,399 --> 01:18:12,159
Fine, I'll go to Japan always
becore. He says, hot shots Golf,

1211
01:18:12,279 --> 01:18:15,760
NBA Street, Mario Tennis the bigs. Hot Shots golf is pretty cool

1212
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:18,359
too. I think you know it's
so similar to Mario tennis. Uh,

1213
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:24,520
like what what Mario tennis? By
the way, Mario Mario golf. Yeah,

1214
01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:28,920
I just got Mario Tennis Mario golf
mixed up. People still like Virtue

1215
01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:30,880
a tennis because that's the tennis game. I almost think of first Virtue of

1216
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:34,239
tennis was fun. Virtual tennis is
very very good. Yeah, I mean

1217
01:18:34,319 --> 01:18:38,039
of the arcady. I don't know
if it's gonna fly. It's not gonna

1218
01:18:38,079 --> 01:18:41,760
make this list. I don't think. Um it's it's tough. People.

1219
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:44,920
A lot of people in chatter say
mutant League football, like that was never

1220
01:18:45,039 --> 01:18:46,840
my football game. Never mind,
I wasn't a big fan of that.

1221
01:18:47,119 --> 01:18:54,000
Um honestly, like we're the from
the Mario sports games. Uh maybe um

1222
01:18:55,039 --> 01:18:58,800
uh the Scott why is the name
is giving me the soccer one strikers?

1223
01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:02,439
Yeah, maybe strikers, the one
that kind of represents for all of Mario.

1224
01:19:04,039 --> 01:19:08,439
It means super Mario Strikers. Yeah. Maybe I'm trying to like,

1225
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,800
what if it's not that? What
is what is the other Mario sports game.

1226
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:15,000
I don't. I mean, like
what are the j GBA or game

1227
01:19:15,039 --> 01:19:17,119
Boy Color RPG ones? But like
we like those more for the RPG things,

1228
01:19:17,119 --> 01:19:21,239
which isn't really very Arcadie, right
right, yes, um, I

1229
01:19:21,279 --> 01:19:26,640
mean listen, I think that Mario
Golf on the three DS is fantastic.

1230
01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:30,000
It's really good. But it's I
you know, I do feel like we're

1231
01:19:30,079 --> 01:19:33,039
kind of iconic, right exactly.
It's probably not emblematic enough. Oh um

1232
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:39,399
yeah. Ryan Allen mentioning NHL ninety
four. That really is very good shit

1233
01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:42,840
NHL ninety four rules. Yeah,
it's been getting a glow up like that's

1234
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:45,439
honestly, like back when I had
a GENA says, I didn't know it

1235
01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:47,560
was supposed to be good, and
now everybody talks about it. Yeah,

1236
01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:50,439
and it's it really is a ton
of fun to go back to to this

1237
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:55,000
day. They did a throwback version
a couple of years ago. It had

1238
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:58,479
a modern roster, but it was
still just NHL ninety four and that that's

1239
01:19:58,520 --> 01:20:00,239
a lot of fun. I love
playing that all the time. Time.

1240
01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:03,239
That feels like it could really make
the list. It's one of those ones

1241
01:20:03,279 --> 01:20:06,000
where it's um it's a sports game. It's based on real league, has

1242
01:20:06,039 --> 01:20:10,279
real players, and anyone can pick
up and play and have fun. Uh,

1243
01:20:10,359 --> 01:20:14,399
and that I think that's the hallmark
of a arcade sports game. Okay,

1244
01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:16,640
do me a favorite an add Super
Mario Strikers to the short list?

1245
01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:23,159
Yeah, yes, we'll do.
Yeah, I'm sorry, there's no I

1246
01:20:23,199 --> 01:20:26,079
don't think there's any way NBA Street
point two can get on there. It

1247
01:20:26,159 --> 01:20:29,560
just it just suffers from NBA Jam
being a thing. That's every problem with

1248
01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:30,600
it. Yep, it's I mean, it's one of the best games of

1249
01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:34,640
all time, it really is.
Um, but there goes and a type

1250
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:39,399
of bowl is just going to suffer
because my football is already taken. Yea

1251
01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:45,560
same similar thing, yep. I
think so all right, moving can okay?

1252
01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:48,319
And then so, like, which
one would you argue on to like

1253
01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:51,439
get in there with NBA Jam and
Blitz right now? Of the short list,

1254
01:20:53,279 --> 01:20:56,239
NHL ninety four is actually the first
one I go to of these.

1255
01:20:56,479 --> 01:21:00,760
And then do we um have the
same conversation like that was a him for

1256
01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:04,960
that time? I don't know,
because it I feel like it like they

1257
01:21:05,039 --> 01:21:09,119
were they were just making arcade sports
games just because that's what they were.

1258
01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:11,680
It feels maybe weird to penalize them, to be like, well, that's

1259
01:21:12,239 --> 01:21:15,680
you know, a technical I get
it because like compared to the other NFL

1260
01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:18,000
games at the time, it was
it was like the most realistic for the

1261
01:21:18,359 --> 01:21:25,399
Super for the Nintendo an entertainment system
for Genesis, NHL ninety four was by

1262
01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:28,079
no means the most realistic one there
was definitely once they were trying to be

1263
01:21:28,159 --> 01:21:30,319
more. Yes, I think that
distinction existed by that point. It's certainly

1264
01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:34,760
now people look back on it,
they definitely describe it as more arcadie,

1265
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:38,680
right, that is like, oh
I wish it was more arcadie like NHL

1266
01:21:38,800 --> 01:21:42,119
ninety four, is what they'll say. So that's the one I would probably

1267
01:21:42,159 --> 01:21:45,920
put up there. And then I'm
as, we don't like get further away

1268
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:48,680
from you arguing it. I'm kind
of buying him more on the Golden Tea

1269
01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:54,840
one. Yeah, so like I'm
either one of the one of the golf

1270
01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:58,880
games. It's like going to definitely
more popular Neil Turfbasters is better and still

1271
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:01,800
kind of like famous yea. And
again we don't give we never give Neogio

1272
01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:04,680
any love here. I mean,
if let's say, if it won't take

1273
01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:09,079
a ton to get me to put
Neoturf Masters on the I love Neoturf Masters.

1274
01:22:09,159 --> 01:22:11,880
I also like the idea of doing
Super Mario Strikers, and it kind

1275
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:15,119
of it represents the whole Mario side
of things, and that's a big part

1276
01:22:15,159 --> 01:22:19,119
Marios. All these arcadie sports games, and you know, there's something about

1277
01:22:19,199 --> 01:22:24,600
Strikers where we maybe maybe the best
one and kind of just a big deal.

1278
01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:27,680
Let's just to help people out in
the chat again, because people are

1279
01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,359
making a lot of recommendations. We
are going to do extreme sports as a

1280
01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:34,000
separate one of these so SSX and
ten eighty and all that stuff. Yeah,

1281
01:22:34,039 --> 01:22:38,960
we're not really good. We're not
concerned with these are our professional sports

1282
01:22:39,039 --> 01:22:41,640
leagues, the arcade versions of those
for the most part, right, that's

1283
01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:45,079
what we're going for. Yeah,
yeah, I think that's correct. Okay,

1284
01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:48,840
sports balls, sports balls. Let
me read some of these other recommendations.

1285
01:22:49,039 --> 01:22:53,479
Let's see efficient lefts as golf with
your friends is a blast, well,

1286
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:57,880
well friends with friends. Uh.
They also say Super Mario Strikers,

1287
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:00,840
the game Q one, win jammers
two. A lot of people were saying

1288
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:02,960
win jammers. I don't think we
have enough personal love for win Jammers is

1289
01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:05,479
too much of like a made up
sport that's not even like a real sport

1290
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:10,560
though. Is a fighting game?
Yeah that's really cool? Yes, but

1291
01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:14,079
hey we get up again. Neil
turf Masters compete the Neil Geo boy here.

1292
01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:19,359
Um Final Sports chatter saying we sports, which is like, yeah,

1293
01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:24,359
but I always think of that as
like a completely different thing than yeah sports

1294
01:23:24,399 --> 01:23:28,600
party game. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, exactly. Final Fantasy people are

1295
01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:30,960
gonna hate these distinctions, but hey, it's our fucking show. The Final

1296
01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:34,359
Fantasy Wolf of five says, as
a sports game hater, I can at

1297
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:39,000
least admit Mario golf games are pretty
fun, especially the original Game Boy one.

1298
01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:43,359
I definitely agree with that. Um
and you face says NFL Blitz,

1299
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:47,359
NBA Jam Nbastree Volume two and Burnout
three. We did Arcade Sports Racers separately.

1300
01:23:48,199 --> 01:23:51,319
What about wrestling games? We should
just do one of these for Mount

1301
01:23:51,399 --> 01:23:55,319
rushmore wrestling games that could be funsome
Yeah, wrest I mean, look,

1302
01:23:55,359 --> 01:23:59,640
wrest is wrestling a sport even right, It's a It's a fine athletic endeavor.

1303
01:24:00,079 --> 01:24:05,039
But yeah, uh lots more Nbastree
Volume two, Super Dodgeball Advance from

1304
01:24:05,039 --> 01:24:10,399
Buggadillo. JD. Camp says,
we sports for its little barrier to entry.

1305
01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:13,000
But I don't know how a game
with a shirtless warrior eggman and silver

1306
01:24:13,239 --> 01:24:16,560
isn't the goat and this is the
yet Tokyo Olympics Games twenty twenty, same

1307
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:21,000
shirtless eggman's shirtless wire unless each other
is really fucked up because they have like

1308
01:24:21,079 --> 01:24:27,560
the same body, but then limbs, the limbs are just very different than

1309
01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:32,279
just has actual legs and Warrio only
has feet. It is really it's like

1310
01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:36,199
two different. It's like a breed
of dogs that you could tell used to

1311
01:24:36,279 --> 01:24:39,720
be the same and now they're just
like, oh, we're gonna keep breeding.

1312
01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:42,279
These ones have long legs and these
ones have short legs, and you

1313
01:24:42,359 --> 01:24:45,119
put them next to each other.
That's exactly what it looks like. How

1314
01:24:45,239 --> 01:24:50,039
dare they include silver? Right?
That is a disgrace. This is disgusting.

1315
01:24:50,119 --> 01:24:54,159
I can't believe that they even acknowledge
that that thing is still happening.

1316
01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:59,279
Uh, Surface Canes is baseball stars
too for Neogo the goat arcade baseball game.

1317
01:24:59,319 --> 01:25:00,520
This looks man, I never plated. Now I really want me to

1318
01:25:01,199 --> 01:25:05,079
bagdad to say love you? Do
you ever? You do you have like

1319
01:25:05,159 --> 01:25:09,720
those? That's the usual. Like, I think that's the gamer midlife crisis

1320
01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:12,479
is I'm going to get a Neo
Geo. Have you been feeling that fall?

1321
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:15,520
Yeah, just recently I think as
my midlife crisis. So yeah,

1322
01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:16,880
I've been like really thinking like,
oh, I'd like to get a Neil

1323
01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:20,039
Geo. I don't know why,
because not only is a Neil Geo expensive,

1324
01:25:20,119 --> 01:25:23,920
but then the games are incredibly expensive. So what am I doing with

1325
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:27,079
my life? Exactly? I usually
end up talking myself out of it.

1326
01:25:27,640 --> 01:25:31,640
Uh, I d Kevin, uh
says Rocket League. Sorry, Daisy,

1327
01:25:31,640 --> 01:25:34,000
but I can't think of a better
arcade soccer game to play here. Roca

1328
01:25:34,079 --> 01:25:41,880
League is a good pole, right
man. It's just I don't know,

1329
01:25:42,239 --> 01:25:45,039
I never really thought of as an
arcade sports game, even though like it

1330
01:25:45,199 --> 01:25:46,600
is again, it's kind of a
made of sport. Again, it's soccer

1331
01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:51,680
basically, it's so extra. Though
it's so extra I guess I always just

1332
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:56,319
thought of it more it's just like
a competitive e sports the kind of game.

1333
01:25:56,399 --> 01:25:58,760
I don't know. Yeah, I'm
I kind of agree with you.

1334
01:25:59,279 --> 01:26:03,399
Matt Raremonk NBA, jam NFL,
Blitz, Neoturf Masters, the Virtual Virtua

1335
01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:09,079
Tennis. Uh, that's good.
See Dugan says a big buck Hunter,

1336
01:26:09,199 --> 01:26:13,760
I'm going I'm going literal on this
one. There's like a documentary about like

1337
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:16,560
professional big buck Hunter players, and
I really want to watch I would love

1338
01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:21,960
to watch that. Uh but Bob
Dolphus Bob Dolphins has uh Daytona USA.

1339
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:27,039
Yeah, that's racing games already had
their moment. I love Daytona USA though.

1340
01:26:27,119 --> 01:26:30,000
God. Yes, of course,
just art something we'll maybe even do,

1341
01:26:30,119 --> 01:26:34,319
like arcade games in general, talk
about Daytona there because yeah, yeah,

1342
01:26:34,319 --> 01:26:39,199
I mean there's a reason you still
find Daytona machines pretty pretty much everywhere.

1343
01:26:40,079 --> 01:26:43,359
Man Arcade New New Barcades are gonna
have them, yes, absolutely.

1344
01:26:43,560 --> 01:26:48,960
Rolling stock Razzle Jazl says backyard Baseball
backyard Baseball deserves a shout, specifically the

1345
01:26:49,039 --> 01:26:54,399
character Pablo Sanchez that the gout.
Yeah, I've heard about it. I

1346
01:26:54,439 --> 01:26:57,119
think I was like, I think
I thought I was too old for backyard

1347
01:26:57,119 --> 01:26:59,520
baseball time it came out, so
I missed on it. There's a Madden

1348
01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:01,800
NFL our Kid game that's yeah,
I guess so, man, that's weird.

1349
01:27:02,199 --> 01:27:04,560
Uh Yeah, I feel like I
saw that at a David Busters a

1350
01:27:04,560 --> 01:27:06,359
couple of times and then I was
like, I'll just go play Woods.

1351
01:27:08,079 --> 01:27:11,720
Um let's see. But also,
yeah, Mike Tyson's punch Out is one

1352
01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:15,880
where I'm like, it's almost like
a rhythm game or a puzzle game.

1353
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:20,239
I don't know, yeah, I
mean right, it's not the first thing

1354
01:27:20,279 --> 01:27:23,600
that comes to mind, but when
I like think it out, when I

1355
01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:25,640
talk it out, I kind of
like, ah, yeah, of course

1356
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:27,600
it is. But I don't know. I think a lot of people in

1357
01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:30,039
the suggestions saying neo turf Masters,
which is almost like make we think it's

1358
01:27:30,039 --> 01:27:33,359
a bit more kind of known amongst
the populace than I even thought. I'm

1359
01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:38,520
kind of feeling stronger about Neo turf
Masters now. Yeah, and I really

1360
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:42,199
I really love neoturf Masters. Um
yeah, you know what, Like I

1361
01:27:42,239 --> 01:27:45,199
get like going toe is certainly more
and you know, everywhere, but yeah,

1362
01:27:45,279 --> 01:27:50,319
let's get and I'm not a boomer, and yeah, they're just they're

1363
01:27:50,359 --> 01:27:57,000
disgusting bikini models they shove in there, and those those cabinets are always so

1364
01:27:57,119 --> 01:28:00,800
sticky. As a drunk people are
spilling their beer everywhere. Golden Tea goes

1365
01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:05,439
on the Mount Rushmore of games that
your friends drunk step mom plays and it's

1366
01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:09,840
like the only game she plays like
that. Yes, that's that, and

1367
01:28:10,079 --> 01:28:13,239
big Buck Hunter and big Buck Hunter. Yes, it's like and they like

1368
01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:15,279
want to talk to you about it
because you play video Gammy. I don't

1369
01:28:15,359 --> 01:28:20,000
care about this at all. Autobiographical
there a little bit um Brian Rose says

1370
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:25,920
when Jammers, Christian says FIFA Street
two and of course got the three Golden

1371
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:30,439
stars by his name. What Rizzo
says, Wa Luigi's first appearance Mario Tennis

1372
01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:34,279
on the n sixty four Mario Tennis
is very very good, very good.

1373
01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:38,960
I actually because we're playing Mario Tennis
sixty four recently, just on on professional

1374
01:28:39,039 --> 01:28:44,359
Fridays for funds, and it was
actually really good. So but but you

1375
01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:47,399
know, I kind of it's rough
because I almost want to get a Mario

1376
01:28:47,479 --> 01:28:51,880
game on there. But I also
like NBA JAM, NFL Blitz, NHO

1377
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,079
ninety four, Neil Turfmasters as a
list that seems pretty good to be.

1378
01:28:56,520 --> 01:29:00,800
I guess the one question there is
do we do we actually need to midway

1379
01:29:00,279 --> 01:29:02,920
games on there? And part of
me is like, yes, but I

1380
01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:05,319
don't know what do you think?
I think yes, yes, yes,

1381
01:29:06,439 --> 01:29:11,239
yea they are arcades sports to me, like they defined it and then they

1382
01:29:11,640 --> 01:29:15,279
I think they earned two slots on
here. And yes, it means um

1383
01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,560
that the Mario games might get left
off, but I think that's probably right

1384
01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:23,600
for this Mount rushmore. I think
everywhere else, yeah, Mart gets this

1385
01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:26,800
love everywhere else, and you know, those are obviously great games, but

1386
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:30,560
I think ninety four Neio Turf Masters
makes more sense. It is also I

1387
01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:36,600
do also associate this kind of era
almost from this time and maybe not so

1388
01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:41,199
much even like Intil sixty four a
bit less, even though Blitz is kind

1389
01:29:41,199 --> 01:29:44,000
of in that era. I don't
know. I like this list though when

1390
01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:46,279
I look at it. Here,
Uh, we got a good spread of

1391
01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:55,279
sports games different platforms, even finally
giving Neo Geo some love. Um yeah,

1392
01:29:55,399 --> 01:29:58,720
I think like the only thing is
like, isn't a NHL ninety four

1393
01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:00,479
sports game? Maybe people disagree.
I think it is, yep. I

1394
01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:04,439
think it's a it's in our kid
sports game yep. And this as usual,

1395
01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:06,720
we get to this point. I
look at it like, that looks

1396
01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:10,760
right to me? That looks right, yeah, and I'm I'm really happy

1397
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:14,920
with the Neo turf Master's pick.
Actually, as as our as our who

1398
01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:17,720
we always say is at Roosevelt.
That's the uh, that's the Roosevelt Roosevelt

1399
01:30:17,760 --> 01:30:21,359
about so and I think that's definitely
a Roosevelt. Ya. We just got

1400
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:26,640
a super chat from Shagir Miyamota,
who's asking where is we support? Sorry,

1401
01:30:27,399 --> 01:30:30,479
oh yeah, we just yeah,
Shaggy, you're gonna visit Usu Naka

1402
01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:35,600
in jail, gonna vote or anything? Come on. It's just like like

1403
01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:41,560
a fucking Nemesis and nimeses like just
finally they got you and now I'm still

1404
01:30:42,119 --> 01:30:44,680
in the movie, right, Yeah, I'm gonna take over your life now.

1405
01:30:45,199 --> 01:30:46,680
I would love that very much.
Yeah. To be clear, we

1406
01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:51,560
still can't really verify this everybody,
but the Twitter versus saying that UNA is

1407
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:57,199
going I can independently verify it,
Okay, I did. I did the

1408
01:30:57,359 --> 01:31:00,680
research and I found the news article
that you know, I had to dig

1409
01:31:00,760 --> 01:31:05,159
through the dregs of Twitter. But
yeah's breaking news from TBS that Eugene Knaka

1410
01:31:05,479 --> 01:31:11,119
is being sentenced to two years six
months in prison, four years of probation,

1411
01:31:11,319 --> 01:31:15,239
and two fines for his two crimes
one hundred and seventy million yon and

1412
01:31:15,359 --> 01:31:19,600
two million Yon two crime. Eugen
knackats what they call him from Free the

1413
01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:25,399
Homie. Look, I know,
Bong Wonder World's bad, but come on,

1414
01:31:25,600 --> 01:31:28,800
have you really had to go to
jail. I don't understand it because

1415
01:31:29,079 --> 01:31:31,680
there's way more than just two crimes
in that game. Come on, I

1416
01:31:32,359 --> 01:31:36,479
can't believe you Nackets could actually be
in prison. Oh my god, it

1417
01:31:36,720 --> 01:31:43,680
is um. I'm like, I
would love to put make put out a

1418
01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:46,039
T shirt of him in prison,
but it's as tasteless. And I know,

1419
01:31:46,199 --> 01:31:53,000
I know, I know, I
know. I said I would love

1420
01:31:53,079 --> 01:31:57,880
it though, That's what I'm saying. I would love it just him behind

1421
01:31:58,039 --> 01:32:02,439
bars, like fucking Mario and Super
Mario Sunshine. Uh, don't we already

1422
01:32:02,479 --> 01:32:05,000
have a shirt still up there someone's
face? Who do ask? You know?

1423
01:32:05,159 --> 01:32:08,760
We do not? Actually I took
that down that weekend? Okay,

1424
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:11,399
collector aside on Rowe there go.
Yes, I made my money, but

1425
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:15,279
I mean, fuck um, all
right, let's see here one more time.

1426
01:32:15,319 --> 01:32:18,680
Mount Rushmore of Arcade Sports is NBA, JAM, NFL, Blitz,

1427
01:32:18,920 --> 01:32:24,720
NHL ninety four and Neo Turf Masters. Uh. Feel free to kid,

1428
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:27,159
Feel free. I like that.
I like this too. Feel free to

1429
01:32:27,279 --> 01:32:29,960
yell at us. I would really
appreciate it. Bet we're gonna get yelled

1430
01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:31,920
at about Techno Bowl and the Mario
games and most probably the Mario games the

1431
01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:35,359
most. Yeah, I'll be I'll
be surprising. I'll be excited to see

1432
01:32:35,399 --> 01:32:38,319
what people have to yell. Let's
see. I Like, people say,

1433
01:32:38,399 --> 01:32:42,119
boomer list is there? I mean, arcade sports games is already a boomer

1434
01:32:42,199 --> 01:32:45,439
genre? What do you want?
Also the like actual Mount Rushmore is a

1435
01:32:45,520 --> 01:32:48,159
list, like a boomer list of
presidents, Like what do you That's the

1436
01:32:48,239 --> 01:32:51,560
whole thing, like, what do
you want from us? Yeah, assumers

1437
01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:56,680
these days don't know who Abraham Lincoln
is. Yeah. People people are saying,

1438
01:32:56,680 --> 01:33:00,159
like NHL in ninety four does that
count as arcade sports? But but

1439
01:33:00,319 --> 01:33:03,399
yes it does, said it never
cared about those mutant league games. Sorry,

1440
01:33:03,840 --> 01:33:06,039
yeah, sorry, And whenever they
try to bring them back, everyone's

1441
01:33:06,079 --> 01:33:09,359
like, I'm excited, and then
they never get their funding goals. So

1442
01:33:09,840 --> 01:33:13,640
okay, wow, charter Wolf.
I didn't know that a charter Wolf was

1443
01:33:13,680 --> 01:33:16,199
a bad person, but they said
in the super chat due to Mike suggesting

1444
01:33:16,279 --> 01:33:21,800
a goddamn Neil Geo game a console
nobody owns. Jeff wins the Q three

1445
01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:26,359
predictions, Hey Wolf, get Yeah, no one owned what but guess what

1446
01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:30,920
it's in arcades. You could play
the arcade Sports game in an artcade.

1447
01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:36,520
You've definitely played Geo you know S
and K arcade games like that. That

1448
01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:40,279
was always the weird thing I like
never understood the time, Like, why

1449
01:33:40,319 --> 01:33:43,000
are these new geo games so much
money? It's like they're just the arcade

1450
01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:45,439
boards basically, It's Oh, okay, well, I guess that does make

1451
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:48,760
some sense. All right, Mike, should we take a break. Are

1452
01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,760
you ready to talk about what you've
been playing? Yes, let's get into

1453
01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:54,960
it. Let's just get into it. I we'll do that, then we'll

1454
01:33:55,000 --> 01:34:00,680
finish up the super chats. Although
actually I think I actually did catch up

1455
01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:02,119
on those. I think the only
one I missed because I just brought up

1456
01:34:02,119 --> 01:34:05,680
every other one as they came in. Uh was this one from the Andrew

1457
01:34:05,760 --> 01:34:09,920
thirteen? He says, mikey winning
sexy Animals and going to the burg for

1458
01:34:10,039 --> 01:34:15,680
a baseball game during the Furry Con
makes perfect sense? Now, incredible?

1459
01:34:15,199 --> 01:34:19,239
Um, all right, thank you
for that. Tim. We glad we

1460
01:34:19,319 --> 01:34:21,399
are we're able to get all the
super chats. Mike, what have you

1461
01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:27,680
been playing? I finally got to
star Fantasy sixteen. How are you feeling

1462
01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:31,319
about I think everybody's been holding their
breath waiting to hear what Mike Manati thinks

1463
01:34:31,359 --> 01:34:34,479
about Fantasy sixteen. Yeah, because
that's all. That's the only opinion that

1464
01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:36,840
really matters. I like it a
lot things great, It's really fun.

1465
01:34:38,039 --> 01:34:40,800
It's pretty well made. That's how
that's why I'm on made. Yes,

1466
01:34:41,119 --> 01:34:45,039
Uh it's where are you at?
I gosh, what's a good way?

1467
01:34:45,359 --> 01:34:47,880
Uh? Okay, not counting,
Like maybe the intro sequence I have,

1468
01:34:48,119 --> 01:34:53,119
I did the second big Icon fight. Okay, maybe a good way of

1469
01:34:53,439 --> 01:34:56,279
putting it. Yeah, Like the
combat is really good. I mean the

1470
01:34:56,479 --> 01:34:59,199
story is just really strong, and
I know there's a lot of it,

1471
01:34:59,279 --> 01:35:01,159
of course, but I think it's
great. I think a lot of these

1472
01:35:01,239 --> 01:35:06,960
characters are really cool. Obviously said
Dolphus is fantastic. Even even Clive.

1473
01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:10,239
He's a good boy. And you
know, that was one thing I was

1474
01:35:10,239 --> 01:35:13,800
worried about, especially when you talk
about like Game of Thrones and Prestige TV.

1475
01:35:14,199 --> 01:35:16,760
I was worried about a lot of
like moral grayness where it's like,

1476
01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:21,159
yeah, this character who shoved the
child out of a window because he caught

1477
01:35:21,319 --> 01:35:25,920
him having sex with his sisters are
to be like everybody's hero in season five

1478
01:35:26,079 --> 01:35:28,600
or shit like that. It's like, now, just I just want good

1479
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:30,720
guys and bad guys, and this
game is very much here are the bad

1480
01:35:30,840 --> 01:35:33,560
people and here are the good people. And you know what, that's actually

1481
01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:38,399
what I want from Vinyl Fantasy.
Yes, that's fine, and so yeah,

1482
01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:40,680
it's like it's it's very easy for
me to know what I'm rooting for,

1483
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:43,600
what the stakes are, and also
glad that even some stuff I was

1484
01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:46,319
worried about was kind of subverted.
I don't want to get into spoilers there,

1485
01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,439
but it's more interesting than I thought
it would be from some of the

1486
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:55,720
marketing. I guess I'll say,
yeah, it's it typically starts off very

1487
01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:58,880
much and again, I know you
don't watch Game of Thrones. It sets

1488
01:35:59,000 --> 01:36:01,479
up as Game of Thrones, and
then it very quickly. It's just like

1489
01:36:01,720 --> 01:36:04,600
we can't help it. It's gonna
be Final Fantasy in a couple hours,

1490
01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:08,239
like like we just can't help ourselves. Of course, we wanted to make

1491
01:36:08,239 --> 01:36:10,760
it more like Game of Thrones,
but we're not actually going to see a

1492
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:13,520
lot of that stuff through. And
I think that's one percent the right choice

1493
01:36:14,119 --> 01:36:17,279
because it's like they set up an
interesting world in a way that I think

1494
01:36:17,319 --> 01:36:20,359
they were encouraged by Game Thrones to
do that, and uh, there is

1495
01:36:20,359 --> 01:36:24,840
a lot of politics, but you're
right, the characters themselves are much more

1496
01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:30,039
in archetypes in a much stronger way
than in Game of Thrones, where it's

1497
01:36:30,039 --> 01:36:32,600
like they have to always be its
constantly crossing different archetypes. Because these characters

1498
01:36:32,640 --> 01:36:35,880
are much more complicated for for the
you know, the literature that they come

1499
01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:39,840
from. This is uh, this
is like, yeah, you're right that

1500
01:36:40,119 --> 01:36:43,039
they are going to be the good
guys. They are going to be the

1501
01:36:43,079 --> 01:36:45,439
bad guys, and the things that
they're fighting for are black and white,

1502
01:36:45,520 --> 01:36:49,600
and I'm I'm very much into that
as well, So I'm I'm enjoying it.

1503
01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:54,800
I have fallen off a bit mostly
because kind of finding time to sit

1504
01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:58,239
down at my PS five has always
been a bit of a problem. And

1505
01:36:58,319 --> 01:37:02,039
I got the rog ally and I'm
trying to set up remote streaming on that.

1506
01:37:02,439 --> 01:37:05,000
I got it working up to the
point where it's like and now you

1507
01:37:05,039 --> 01:37:09,800
got to make sure the controller is
set up properly. I'm like, okay,

1508
01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:12,520
I got to download a separate thing
for Windows to get that to work.

1509
01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:15,840
Stupid PlayStation just won't let any controller
work and I haven't done that part

1510
01:37:15,920 --> 01:37:17,960
yet, but once I do,
I will probably get back in the swing

1511
01:37:18,039 --> 01:37:25,079
of things for that game because I
am enjoying it. Are you like upset

1512
01:37:25,279 --> 01:37:29,199
that there isn't a ton of rpgenus
in the RPG? Are you worried about

1513
01:37:29,239 --> 01:37:32,119
the side quest things like that?
So like no, but like all those

1514
01:37:32,239 --> 01:37:35,199
like big criticisms, they're all they're
all right, they're all true. I

1515
01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:40,600
agree, there's not much in the
way of like customizing your play experience.

1516
01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:43,079
Everyone's base going to play this game
in the same way, except for maybe

1517
01:37:43,159 --> 01:37:45,760
picking like which cool down abilities they're
going to have. That seems to be

1518
01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:50,720
the big variants there. The side
quests are not very involved or interesting and

1519
01:37:53,399 --> 01:37:57,159
doesn't really bother me too much.
I do get it. But yeah,

1520
01:37:57,239 --> 01:37:59,720
like I am kind of into this, Like no, like this is very

1521
01:37:59,840 --> 01:38:03,000
much story focused action game. That's
fine. File Fancy is always doing different

1522
01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:05,199
things and maybe, you know,
maybe the next one will be more like

1523
01:38:05,359 --> 01:38:10,039
a big open RPG, even if
not a turn based RPG. I don't

1524
01:38:10,039 --> 01:38:12,680
know where we're going to go back
to that, but I'm like really down

1525
01:38:12,760 --> 01:38:15,680
for what this game is throwing at
me? And uh yeah, like the

1526
01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:19,119
production eyes are great, Like those
big moments, they are really cool.

1527
01:38:19,159 --> 01:38:21,319
You know, this is going back
to my level and Charted. I love

1528
01:38:21,399 --> 01:38:25,840
big set piece of moments right when
you are doing stuff like that kind of

1529
01:38:25,960 --> 01:38:30,560
like even like the very opening right
with some of it's uh let's say two

1530
01:38:30,640 --> 01:38:32,920
Towers vibes, They're like, yeah, this stuff rules. This is big

1531
01:38:33,000 --> 01:38:36,880
and bombastic and it is really cool. And that part has always been an

1532
01:38:36,920 --> 01:38:41,359
aspect of Fall Fancy, especially since
seven. This is very much of like

1533
01:38:41,439 --> 01:38:43,880
what if we just made a whole
game that was kind of just based around

1534
01:38:44,279 --> 01:38:48,920
making the summon animations for Papacy seven
like the bigger part of the game itself,

1535
01:38:49,439 --> 01:38:51,680
and like part of the story too
in a strong way. Yeah,

1536
01:38:51,960 --> 01:38:55,039
but it is you know, it
is interesting, Like that's kind of where

1537
01:38:55,079 --> 01:38:57,840
we are with with fa Face to
maybe some other games where you kind of

1538
01:38:57,840 --> 01:39:00,920
have to cherry pick, like which
aspects are you going to use for this

1539
01:39:00,199 --> 01:39:02,760
game because you can't do all of
it. So this is the one that's

1540
01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:08,199
really focused on presentation and story and
some of that stuff you maybe do have

1541
01:39:08,279 --> 01:39:13,159
to sacrifice some of the RTPG mechanics
and the customization and things like that along

1542
01:39:13,239 --> 01:39:15,840
the way. But yeah, but
you know, it's just like christ Is

1543
01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:18,279
saying thirteen was like that as well. Yeah, but likes but then there

1544
01:39:18,319 --> 01:39:21,239
the characters, the story was kind
of bad. So like this is just

1545
01:39:21,399 --> 01:39:26,439
immediately better because that stuff seems good
at least so far. I've heard some

1546
01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:30,520
people have some Act three criticisms.
We'll see if I feel the same way

1547
01:39:30,560 --> 01:39:31,840
about that. Yeah, I won't
be surprised if I feel in the same

1548
01:39:31,880 --> 01:39:38,039
way Sarah's Wrath. People keep pointing
that out as like a good point of

1549
01:39:38,159 --> 01:39:41,039
comparison, and I think that's right. It does remind me a lot of

1550
01:39:41,119 --> 01:39:45,640
a Sarah's Wrath when you hit those
big icon fights. I do occasionally so

1551
01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:47,000
far, I'm still pretty early on
because, like I said, I put

1552
01:39:47,039 --> 01:39:50,800
it to the side for a bit. I find myself getting a little bit

1553
01:39:50,880 --> 01:39:56,520
bored during the icon fights when things
are dragging on a little bit. I

1554
01:39:56,680 --> 01:40:00,119
bet a part of that is they
they're saving some of the bigger clashes more

1555
01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:03,119
it's interesting stuff for later into the
game. So yeah, like the big

1556
01:40:03,159 --> 01:40:05,960
one together, it looks really there's
like a section there where there's a lot

1557
01:40:06,079 --> 01:40:10,079
of just oh, this is a
This is like a movie I'm watching now,

1558
01:40:10,279 --> 01:40:13,399
and they even calling them qute ease
is generous, but it's almost like

1559
01:40:13,479 --> 01:40:15,680
to make sure you're not falling asleep
behind the wheel, like push x now,

1560
01:40:16,439 --> 01:40:19,920
so the movie continues like Okay,
sure, I'll do that. Wasn't

1561
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:24,399
like bother me, but also doesn't
excite me. How do you feel about

1562
01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:27,880
as Wilf brings up, this has
been the talk this week. You know,

1563
01:40:27,960 --> 01:40:30,159
there's one backlash after another with the
Final Fantasy Game. Right now we

1564
01:40:30,239 --> 01:40:35,680
are in the it's too easy backlash. I think that is probably right,

1565
01:40:35,960 --> 01:40:41,279
but I'm also not necessarily hating it. I remember being surprised early on when

1566
01:40:41,319 --> 01:40:43,920
I was in a boss fight and
I went into the boss fight without a

1567
01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:47,279
lot of health and I died near
the end of that boss fight. I

1568
01:40:47,359 --> 01:40:49,439
was like, pretty frustrating, mine, I'm gonna do that whole thing over

1569
01:40:49,520 --> 01:40:53,560
again, and it's and then it
had a checkpoint in the middle of the

1570
01:40:53,600 --> 01:40:56,399
boss fight, basically at the last
phase, and I was like, oh,

1571
01:40:56,720 --> 01:40:59,119
and I had and then I got
all my health back as well as

1572
01:40:59,159 --> 01:41:01,439
healing item. So I'm like,
oh, this is very generous in terms

1573
01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:05,359
of very generous and you get you
get the feeling that they were conscious.

1574
01:41:05,359 --> 01:41:09,359
I mean, you heard so much
about this was making sure where people play

1575
01:41:09,359 --> 01:41:12,520
a final fantasy, and maybe they
go they went a little too far into

1576
01:41:12,680 --> 01:41:15,199
coddling there, right, Yeah,
I don't know. There's like a harder

1577
01:41:15,239 --> 01:41:17,000
MODU unlock when you beat the game, and maybe you'll be interested in trying

1578
01:41:17,119 --> 01:41:20,359
that out, but yeah, I
won't be interested in that. I can

1579
01:41:20,399 --> 01:41:23,600
I know now I won't do that, so it doesn't really help me.

1580
01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:26,479
But I'm glad it's there for people
who want that. Yeah, and you

1581
01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:29,920
know, I thought the same thing
about uh, that will make cry five.

1582
01:41:29,960 --> 01:41:30,640
To be honest, I thought that
was too easy, and I don't

1583
01:41:30,680 --> 01:41:33,600
think I don't know if too many
people agree. Actually this is probably even

1584
01:41:33,640 --> 01:41:36,479
easier than that, though. Yeah, maybe you know, we seem to

1585
01:41:36,479 --> 01:41:39,840
be kind of passed there. I
wonder how hard Bayonetta three was. I

1586
01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:44,079
don't know because I didn't play it. Um three, I played a little

1587
01:41:44,079 --> 01:41:46,840
bit of it. It's it's it's
not very hard. Um. I think

1588
01:41:47,359 --> 01:41:49,479
we're just too good. We're a
pro gamer. Yeah, I mean I

1589
01:41:50,239 --> 01:41:54,239
am at a certain point expecting any
sort of game that looks like this to

1590
01:41:54,319 --> 01:41:58,800
have more inspiration from front from from
Software Games, and so I was like,

1591
01:41:58,840 --> 01:42:00,239
oh, this is weird. I'm
like a little bit right because it's

1592
01:42:00,319 --> 01:42:03,800
fine, yes, because it's it's
very much not so yeah, but yeah,

1593
01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:05,680
but even um, I guess,
you know, I guess, uh,

1594
01:42:06,039 --> 01:42:10,720
it's funny Comparabi Prophecy Origin, Stranger
Paradise. I guess that was a

1595
01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:14,159
bit harder. Even God of War
Ragnrock was a bit harder than this.

1596
01:42:14,279 --> 01:42:17,920
But that's also like a game where
you can run across like end game bosses

1597
01:42:18,000 --> 01:42:20,840
sort of just like in the miliar
playthrough, you get tried to beat them

1598
01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:24,920
anyway, So like that stuff is
going to be really difficult for sure,

1599
01:42:25,479 --> 01:42:30,720
But here it is basically all oops
only main path. I haven't unlocked the

1600
01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:32,720
Hunts yet though, which are some
of the optional bosses. Maybe there'll be

1601
01:42:32,800 --> 01:42:40,960
some difficulty stuff there. I have
been mostly been playing with my rog ally

1602
01:42:41,119 --> 01:42:43,720
and getting that set up. It
took me a minute to like just get

1603
01:42:43,760 --> 01:42:46,239
it functioning. A lot of games
would not start, especially games from the

1604
01:42:46,720 --> 01:42:50,840
Xbox app. I found out that
is because I did not set the time

1605
01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:55,079
properly, and so the time on
the system was different than the real world

1606
01:42:55,159 --> 01:42:58,960
time, and that was triggering some
DRM mechanisms, so the game just wouldn't

1607
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:01,159
I click it and nothing would happen. Now the games are loading. I

1608
01:43:01,199 --> 01:43:05,079
played a whole bunch of Yakuza Like
a Dragon accidentally. I was just testing

1609
01:43:05,119 --> 01:43:08,359
it out, and then I was
enjoying it so much that I was I

1610
01:43:08,399 --> 01:43:10,840
actually just played a whole bunch of
it. I really enjoyed that. And

1611
01:43:11,119 --> 01:43:13,319
yeah, I like that game too, and I kind of wish I didn't

1612
01:43:13,359 --> 01:43:15,720
fall off it, but I did. And it's hard. It's hard to

1613
01:43:15,760 --> 01:43:18,079
go back, and it's hard to
start over because it's a begin, a

1614
01:43:18,319 --> 01:43:21,000
very story heavy opening, and I
do I don't really want to do that

1615
01:43:21,079 --> 01:43:25,439
again where I'm at, So if, if anything, I would just go

1616
01:43:25,520 --> 01:43:29,760
and play Yakuza Zero or like the
Ishan or something else. Yep, it's

1617
01:43:29,880 --> 01:43:34,880
um like I just got past that
very story heavy opening. It is wild

1618
01:43:35,039 --> 01:43:39,800
how much story there is there,
but it's also mostly compelling. It sets

1619
01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:42,119
up an interesting conflict and stuff,
and now I'm like, oh, I

1620
01:43:42,119 --> 01:43:45,319
want to see what's gonna happen next. So I don't know if I'm gonna

1621
01:43:45,319 --> 01:43:46,039
have time for that game. In
fact, I know I don't have time

1622
01:43:46,079 --> 01:43:48,840
for that game, but I wish
I did because I'm enjoying it. Um.

1623
01:43:49,079 --> 01:43:53,640
Yeah, I'm officially doing a staycation
in a couple of weeks here where

1624
01:43:53,760 --> 01:43:56,720
Oh I'm glad that week. Yeah, I think that we cant sent.

1625
01:43:56,760 --> 01:43:59,399
Thing is I'm just really catching up
on games then, so hopefully I can

1626
01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:03,319
just like beat Final Fantasy during that
week. Um, I've been playing more

1627
01:44:03,399 --> 01:44:06,399
Deal before and um, I'm definitely
gonna beat that. I'm when I played

1628
01:44:06,399 --> 01:44:11,039
that season when it starts, things
like that. So so'll be doing this

1629
01:44:11,119 --> 01:44:13,720
podcast. I could do any giant
pump stuff you want. That's always fun.

1630
01:44:13,800 --> 01:44:16,239
But I'm gonna be working working that
week, which is going to be

1631
01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:21,680
nice cool. I appreciate that.
Um. The other thing I started it,

1632
01:44:21,800 --> 01:44:24,520
I haven't played much of it,
but I kind of want to just

1633
01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:27,600
bring this up because I'm wondering if
you even know this. This game came

1634
01:44:27,640 --> 01:44:34,279
out six days in Flujah came out. That came out June twenty seconds,

1635
01:44:34,319 --> 01:44:41,319
so a couple of weeks ago.
It has four thousand reviews on Steam and

1636
01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:45,880
it's very positive on there. Ah. Gross, that's not what I was

1637
01:44:45,880 --> 01:44:47,760
expecting me here, I wonder who
was reviewing those games? Hi? What

1638
01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:53,600
kind of people is there. So
here's here's from a cup of coffee on

1639
01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:57,119
Steam. He says, God bless
my brothers in arms. And that's a

1640
01:44:57,239 --> 01:45:01,680
review. That's a thumb, that's
a positive review. Here's a war flower.

1641
01:45:02,399 --> 01:45:06,560
A positive review says love how it
was team based. Oh sorry,

1642
01:45:06,560 --> 01:45:11,079
I'm actually that team based and there
was not any just running gun. I

1643
01:45:11,199 --> 01:45:14,640
think there are people who are kind
of going this without knowing the story behind

1644
01:45:14,680 --> 01:45:15,399
it, and some of them are
like, oh, yeah, this is

1645
01:45:15,399 --> 01:45:19,680
actually surprisingly good. One person joined
that it's not call of duty. I

1646
01:45:19,760 --> 01:45:24,439
think that gets the moving shooting gallery. I think it's a big part of

1647
01:45:24,520 --> 01:45:29,039
it. Yes, And then um
Grace, who is an ex serviceman who

1648
01:45:29,079 --> 01:45:30,640
served in Iraq, has a lot
of issues with it, but it's none

1649
01:45:30,640 --> 01:45:33,399
of it is like the problems with
like, you know, the depiction of

1650
01:45:33,439 --> 01:45:36,560
anything it is. Hey, the
AI is disappointing and things like that for

1651
01:45:36,680 --> 01:45:42,239
people people don't know this is the
game that's based off of like an actual

1652
01:45:42,399 --> 01:45:47,680
thing that the deadliest battlefield in the
Iraq War for the for Americans, Uh

1653
01:45:48,079 --> 01:45:51,159
right. And there's a lot of
controversies about the ways maybe the US troops

1654
01:45:51,199 --> 01:45:55,840
handled civilian the way more iraqis died, and then this game was going to

1655
01:45:55,880 --> 01:45:58,479
be like, oh, we're gonna
tell the real story and they and then

1656
01:45:58,520 --> 01:46:00,399
everyone's like the real story from who
perspective, as it's just going to be

1657
01:46:00,680 --> 01:46:03,439
American military, Like no, we're
gonna talk to Iraqis too, and it's

1658
01:46:03,479 --> 01:46:06,840
like, okay, well, we're
pretty skeptical about your ability to do that

1659
01:46:08,239 --> 01:46:12,680
and your motivations here, and the
game got canceled and paused a whole bunch

1660
01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:14,840
of times, and then for the
last couple of years it's like, well

1661
01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:18,000
we're really making it. Um,
yeah, it's it's it's It's always been

1662
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:23,119
a strange one. I'm I've always
been up the opinion of games should be

1663
01:46:23,239 --> 01:46:27,119
able to do this kind of thing
right, But is this the right team

1664
01:46:27,199 --> 01:46:29,760
and the right way of doing this
one? I have no idea. It

1665
01:46:29,960 --> 01:46:31,680
always seemed pretty sketchy that they were
gonna be able to pull it off.

1666
01:46:32,520 --> 01:46:35,119
But yeah, I'm gonna try to
play through it so I can actually see

1667
01:46:35,159 --> 01:46:39,960
for myself of what I think I'll
staying. Well, I think that's where

1668
01:46:40,039 --> 01:46:42,800
most people are because I haven't seen
any coverage of this. Maybe I've missed

1669
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:45,119
it, But honestly, even if
like even with like out all that other

1670
01:46:45,159 --> 01:46:48,199
stuff. I am. I am
just kind of weird at about games about

1671
01:46:48,239 --> 01:46:53,800
these very real reset wars like I
did not even want to touch called Duty

1672
01:46:53,840 --> 01:46:56,720
Wanta Warfares campaign. It just kind
of weirds me out. I don't know,

1673
01:46:56,920 --> 01:47:00,600
it's it is. Um only feel
is recent because it's been going on

1674
01:47:00,800 --> 01:47:03,920
since then. But the door did
start twenty years ago. So it's like

1675
01:47:04,279 --> 01:47:09,119
if there was a game about Vietnam
in like the nineties, like that's like,

1676
01:47:09,479 --> 01:47:13,000
which there definitely was. Oh no, I'm just old. Yeah,

1677
01:47:13,039 --> 01:47:15,920
but you're not wrong, because I
guess I guess what, I really meet

1678
01:47:15,039 --> 01:47:18,279
his wars from my lifetime. I
guess yes, I mean that's so I

1679
01:47:18,359 --> 01:47:24,439
totally get that. I will be
surprised if this game handles everything with any

1680
01:47:24,520 --> 01:47:30,399
sort of deft fingers exactly. But
well, i'll see because I'm curious.

1681
01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:32,319
Hum. Oh, I don't need
to have the amount rushmore up anymore,

1682
01:47:32,319 --> 01:47:34,279
by the way, Oh yeah,
thank you, I'll fix that right now

1683
01:47:34,640 --> 01:47:38,560
here. Just one more review.
It's from Panic, a positive review,

1684
01:47:38,680 --> 01:47:43,640
and it's an asky version of of
that Omega chad guy with the big jawline

1685
01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:47,840
stuff. Very cool, that's anything
that says average average six Days in Fallujah

1686
01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:53,079
Enjoyer. So that is that a
zoomer thing or like an embarrassing always online

1687
01:47:53,119 --> 01:47:56,279
millennial thing? Who does that?
I gets think it's both. Yes,

1688
01:47:57,239 --> 01:48:00,880
yes, uh, let me fix
your height. I moved you down here

1689
01:48:00,880 --> 01:48:04,399
a little bit. I'll do that
please. People already think I'm short height.

1690
01:48:04,720 --> 01:48:08,359
There we go, fixing MIC's height. Oh no, it's just moving

1691
01:48:08,399 --> 01:48:15,600
me down. Fantastic. Okay,
what else have I been playing? Oh?

1692
01:48:15,760 --> 01:48:17,880
Only up? Is that other one
I've been playing? Oh yeah,

1693
01:48:17,880 --> 01:48:21,720
you're really bad at that. I'm
pretty good at it except for every time

1694
01:48:21,760 --> 01:48:26,479
I fall down, and then I'm
very bad at it. Um I it's

1695
01:48:26,479 --> 01:48:28,840
a it's a bad game that I
really like, you know me how I

1696
01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:32,039
am about those kinds of games.
It is that this viral uh three D

1697
01:48:32,159 --> 01:48:38,800
platformer from China that is made with
a bunch of apparently stolen assets, because

1698
01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:41,399
they took it right down from the
Steam Store for having a bunch of stolen

1699
01:48:41,399 --> 01:48:45,279
assets. It is back up now
though, apparently, so they must have

1700
01:48:45,359 --> 01:48:48,199
fixed whatever the issue was. I
um, I don't know. It's just

1701
01:48:48,359 --> 01:48:51,840
it's a good concept for me,
just a it's like getting over it with

1702
01:48:51,880 --> 01:48:56,560
Bennet Foddy but instead of being in
the little barrel and two D, this

1703
01:48:56,720 --> 01:48:59,479
is a three D game and you
run around instead of being in a barrel.

1704
01:49:00,640 --> 01:49:02,560
I don't know. I'm enjoying it. I don't know if I'm ever

1705
01:49:02,600 --> 01:49:05,039
going to be able to beat it. I would have to really dedicate a

1706
01:49:05,119 --> 01:49:10,079
lot of time to it. I
think I get that the cheapness is supposed

1707
01:49:10,119 --> 01:49:13,479
to be part of the appeal,
but like you know, the reused assets

1708
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:15,359
and maybe stolen assets. I don't
really care if they're stolen. I just

1709
01:49:15,359 --> 01:49:17,319
don't like how cheap they look.
And I like the fact that the voiceover

1710
01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:20,560
is clearly an AI robot, Like, din't you make enough money out the

1711
01:49:20,640 --> 01:49:25,239
lasting? Can't you just pay somebody
to say these lines? Now? But

1712
01:49:25,680 --> 01:49:29,439
maybe I'm just kind of missing the
point. Yeah, yeah, oh my

1713
01:49:29,520 --> 01:49:30,920
god, there really is just a
reference to have been at Foddy's game in

1714
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:35,640
here. Um. Yeah, I
think that you are both missing the point

1715
01:49:35,720 --> 01:49:40,840
and also completely correct, because that
is the proper opinion I think on this

1716
01:49:41,159 --> 01:49:44,319
is it looks off puttingly cheap.
Because most people are going to agree with

1717
01:49:44,399 --> 01:49:46,319
you. I just this for me, this is it strikes a certain nerve

1718
01:49:46,960 --> 01:49:49,239
and I get into it and it
makes me want to just keep going to

1719
01:49:49,279 --> 01:49:54,439
see what the next bullshit scene they've
set up for me looks like. But

1720
01:49:54,600 --> 01:49:58,920
yeah, it's got weird physics,
it's kind of half broken, but it

1721
01:49:59,119 --> 01:50:00,399
is a lot of fun to dream. I did enjoy that, and my

1722
01:50:01,239 --> 01:50:04,239
miserable failings were a lot of fun
for people to watch. So yeah,

1723
01:50:04,720 --> 01:50:09,560
I was talking about your miserable failings
always. Yes, you've been playing anything

1724
01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:15,199
else, Mike, Um. I
did start FAM Fantasy four Pixe remaster now,

1725
01:50:15,399 --> 01:50:18,560
which is a bit fun. I've
always been kind of down on FOM

1726
01:50:18,640 --> 01:50:23,119
basically four compared to a lot of
people, and I don't know if I'm

1727
01:50:23,119 --> 01:50:27,359
really turning around on that. It
is like it's really simple, even compared

1728
01:50:27,359 --> 01:50:30,399
to some of the NES games.
There's not almost like six seaters, only

1729
01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:34,800
not that much in terms of like
the RPG mechanics in terms of character customization,

1730
01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:38,920
like characters just who are who they
are, and they learn new abilities

1731
01:50:38,920 --> 01:50:42,439
when they level up. I forget. Maybe that gets more extensively in the

1732
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:45,119
game. We'll see. But so
like all the Pixe remasters, once they

1733
01:50:45,159 --> 01:50:47,520
fix that, Fawn is Shoe actually
look really nice. So I've been enjoying

1734
01:50:47,560 --> 01:50:50,119
that of course I've been playing more
Street Fight or six just kind of right,

1735
01:50:50,640 --> 01:50:53,800
yeah, especially when, like you
know, the battle pass got me

1736
01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:56,239
because like I played a lot more
when the battle pass was almost up to

1737
01:50:56,319 --> 01:50:59,800
make sure I finished it. But
there's like the new Rashid battle pass.

1738
01:51:00,239 --> 01:51:02,600
Uh, so you know, I
am like pretty stuck now in the platinum

1739
01:51:02,720 --> 01:51:04,840
ranking. I don't know if I
can really get to much hire than that,

1740
01:51:04,840 --> 01:51:08,680
but I still want to try to
get a little bit better with Lily.

1741
01:51:09,119 --> 01:51:11,960
But at some point here maybe I'll
try to pick up a second character,

1742
01:51:12,640 --> 01:51:15,600
maybe even try Rashid. I don't
know, that's what I think about,

1743
01:51:15,600 --> 01:51:16,800
although there's a part of me that's
like, maybe play a little bit

1744
01:51:16,920 --> 01:51:20,319
less Year Fight or six now so
I can especially I want to beat the

1745
01:51:20,359 --> 01:51:25,439
Elbow six the Elbow Forres campaign before
the season starts and then do that season

1746
01:51:25,520 --> 01:51:30,199
content with my brothers things like that. Um, yeah, sounds like a

1747
01:51:30,319 --> 01:51:32,159
plan. Uh did you pick anything
up on the Steam Summer? So,

1748
01:51:32,279 --> 01:51:34,359
because I actually did pick a few
things up. Well, you know,

1749
01:51:34,600 --> 01:51:36,760
I have the account, but I
was like kind of looking around a little

1750
01:51:36,760 --> 01:51:42,319
bit and we got i mean hell
Divers and that was that was people I've

1751
01:51:42,319 --> 01:51:45,199
always talked about it, and it's, you know, a co op top

1752
01:51:45,239 --> 01:51:46,640
down shooter. I get it.
I didn't get it. There's so much

1753
01:51:46,680 --> 01:51:49,439
more going on, and that's getting
really fun. I'm probably kind of missed

1754
01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:54,079
out on it. Yes, having
friendly fire turned on and having it like,

1755
01:51:54,279 --> 01:51:57,159
oh, it's not just guns things
wrong from the sky and it's like,

1756
01:51:57,239 --> 01:51:58,760
no, just get the fuck out
of the way. We're not going

1757
01:51:58,800 --> 01:52:00,000
to make the game easier for you
by doing that stuff. No, just

1758
01:52:00,199 --> 01:52:03,520
actually pay attention to what's going on. I love that kind of thing.

1759
01:52:03,840 --> 01:52:08,199
I love that the mechs are big
and slow and lumbering. I love that

1760
01:52:08,239 --> 01:52:11,600
you got a duck if there's a
machine gun that's shooting from behind you.

1761
01:52:11,760 --> 01:52:13,560
No, no, get out of
the way, and like, do we

1762
01:52:13,640 --> 01:52:15,800
give you something to do? Duck
if it's right there. I'm like,

1763
01:52:15,880 --> 01:52:18,439
man, all that stuff really again
strikes a nerve with me where it's like

1764
01:52:18,600 --> 01:52:23,079
I like games that push back against
you, and this one feels like mostly

1765
01:52:23,079 --> 01:52:25,520
it's not even push you back against
you, it's just saying, fucking pay

1766
01:52:25,560 --> 01:52:28,079
attention. And I like that a
lot. I mean, it was fun,

1767
01:52:28,159 --> 01:52:30,880
just like we're like the very easiest
first missions. We were like kind

1768
01:52:30,920 --> 01:52:32,560
of fucking around a lot. Then
as soon as it got slightly harder,

1769
01:52:32,640 --> 01:52:38,920
we worked like we're acting like an
actual squadron, really like communicating, making

1770
01:52:39,119 --> 01:52:44,039
plans of like minimizing our like movementally, wouldn't get caught in crossfires things like

1771
01:52:44,119 --> 01:52:45,880
that. So yeah, I was
really enjoying that. It was pretty surprised.

1772
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:47,840
I think. I think the setup
is pretty good too, where like

1773
01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:51,279
the missions are pretty short and so
like when you do get in one of

1774
01:52:51,319 --> 01:52:54,159
those more difficult ones, it's like, well, I no, I just

1775
01:52:54,239 --> 01:52:56,840
we just got to get over a
couple of these things, survive, and

1776
01:52:56,880 --> 01:52:59,439
we'll be okay, We're not gonna
be stuck in here for a long time.

1777
01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:01,239
It's a really good set up for
like a four player multiplayer game.

1778
01:53:02,279 --> 01:53:04,199
I did pick up some other things
on the Steam seale. I don't know

1779
01:53:04,199 --> 01:53:06,640
why I'm going to play them,
but there's just some good sales and some

1780
01:53:06,760 --> 01:53:11,119
games I've been meaning to try.
I got Out or Wild, never touched

1781
01:53:11,159 --> 01:53:15,039
that somehow, Tropica six I've been
kind of having a little bit of a

1782
01:53:15,279 --> 01:53:18,119
city builder craze that'd be fun.
Sub Nautica, which again just never touched.

1783
01:53:18,439 --> 01:53:21,439
And then Return of the Obra Din, which is in fact our Gamess

1784
01:53:21,560 --> 01:53:26,520
Game Club it did win. Okay, all right, So I will be

1785
01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:30,000
playing Return of the ober Din here
pretty soon. Game a lot of people

1786
01:53:30,079 --> 01:53:32,760
love I know you love it,
a lot of Jeff though game. So

1787
01:53:32,840 --> 01:53:36,159
I'll be very excited to try that
one out. That's probably the most I've

1788
01:53:36,199 --> 01:53:41,399
spent on a Steam sale in a
while. Just been feeling kind of motivated

1789
01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:44,079
again, even though I already have
way too much shit to play. But

1790
01:53:44,119 --> 01:53:46,199
again, I got the Staycasia coming
up. Hopefully I can stream some for

1791
01:53:46,319 --> 01:53:50,399
fun and dive into some of these. I will be excited to hear your

1792
01:53:50,439 --> 01:53:56,039
opinion on ober Din. Just go
into it and pretend your Colombo. That's

1793
01:53:56,119 --> 01:53:59,840
my recommendation to you. Don't don't. I don't have to say that to

1794
01:53:59,880 --> 01:54:01,640
me. Choice. Uh, Mike, remind me to tell you about it.

1795
01:54:01,680 --> 01:54:03,600
Another game I've been playing I can't
talk about yet, but I'll be

1796
01:54:03,640 --> 01:54:06,479
talking about it soon everybody. One
of the time. I'm interested you to

1797
01:54:06,520 --> 01:54:09,840
see if you have it. And
then I played a little bit of Day

1798
01:54:09,880 --> 01:54:13,119
of the Diver. I get it. It seems very good. It has

1799
01:54:13,159 --> 01:54:15,479
a pretty good loop. Dave of
the Diver is you're gonna dive down you're

1800
01:54:15,520 --> 01:54:18,880
gonna catch fish, and then you
go at night, you go back to

1801
01:54:18,920 --> 01:54:21,720
your restaurant, your restaurant opens,
and then you got to provide service in

1802
01:54:21,760 --> 01:54:26,199
the restaurant for your to help out
your chef. And then the next day

1803
01:54:26,239 --> 01:54:29,199
you go back out and now you
have enough money you can maybe buy stuff

1804
01:54:29,239 --> 01:54:31,800
to make you dive a little bit
deeper, get more a rare fish.

1805
01:54:32,199 --> 01:54:34,600
That looks like the loop. I
haven't played a ton of it. I'm

1806
01:54:34,640 --> 01:54:39,560
sure there's more to it than that, but that's it's a good loop.

1807
01:54:39,600 --> 01:54:41,920
It seems like one. I just
don't know if it's necessarily the kind of

1808
01:54:41,960 --> 01:54:44,720
game I want to be spending my
time with right now. It feels like

1809
01:54:44,840 --> 01:54:45,880
more like a game for a slower
time of year, where it's like,

1810
01:54:45,880 --> 01:54:48,840
oh, I spend some time with
Dave the Diver. But people people seem

1811
01:54:48,880 --> 01:54:51,199
to really enjoy it, and I
have no complaints about it. It's just

1812
01:54:51,279 --> 01:54:53,960
now I wasn't in the mood for
it. I guess that is how I

1813
01:54:53,960 --> 01:54:58,119
would put it. That's fine.
I do have a few more super shits

1814
01:54:58,159 --> 01:54:59,840
here. Yeah, let's hit him
and then let's get out of here.

1815
01:55:00,439 --> 01:55:05,279
Yeah, so doctor Ryan says,
my gripe of phansy sixteen is the cut

1816
01:55:05,359 --> 01:55:09,880
scene to gameplay ratio is rough twenty
mits of cut scene to walk down the

1817
01:55:09,920 --> 01:55:13,279
hallway to another twenty mits of cut
scene is draining. Yeah, I mean

1818
01:55:13,279 --> 01:55:16,439
it is. It is definitely that
kind of games, verry story focused.

1819
01:55:16,960 --> 01:55:19,840
Uara Wolf says, but you know
what, part of me almost likes that

1820
01:55:19,920 --> 01:55:24,840
we do that instead of like just
trying to do all that stuff like like

1821
01:55:24,920 --> 01:55:28,479
a God of War where yeah,
I guess that's happening while I'm technically in

1822
01:55:28,560 --> 01:55:30,119
control and I'm walking, but it
is just a lot of the characters are

1823
01:55:30,159 --> 01:55:35,000
talking while I'm walking, and I
don't know that seems like a revelation for

1824
01:55:35,079 --> 01:55:38,760
a bit. Partment's like, actually, why don't we just do that stuff

1825
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:42,439
and cut scenes more so that we
can do more interesting stuff with like camera

1826
01:55:42,560 --> 01:55:46,439
angles and character motions and animations.
I don't know, I don't know where

1827
01:55:46,439 --> 01:55:50,079
the balance there is. Chary Wolf
says about Found Fantasy sixteen, lack of

1828
01:55:50,159 --> 01:55:53,880
hard mode at the start is my
real issue. Yeah, I could I

1829
01:55:53,920 --> 01:55:58,319
could see that, ye yep.
Riel Dogado says, can we raise a

1830
01:55:58,399 --> 01:56:01,039
couple of thousand dollars on a ten
stock to get the angry video game?

1831
01:56:01,079 --> 01:56:04,359
Nerd in an investor call to rant
and cuss out Nintendo. It will be

1832
01:56:04,439 --> 01:56:10,279
funny. I told you see angry
come back, his stocks up. He's

1833
01:56:10,279 --> 01:56:13,920
an older statesman. Now he's respected. That's weird. Yeah, I'm glad

1834
01:56:14,159 --> 01:56:16,119
this pleases me. I'm happy for
it. Oh and Ryan Alan says I

1835
01:56:16,199 --> 01:56:19,560
bought thirty XCX. Thanks, Mike, you are welcome. I don't know

1836
01:56:19,560 --> 01:56:23,760
if you actually say it's thirty xd
X. I think it's just thirty x

1837
01:56:23,960 --> 01:56:27,600
X. I like to say xd
x though it's funny. Wow, okay,

1838
01:56:27,800 --> 01:56:32,119
yeah, because is it funny?
Though? Um, why don't think

1839
01:56:32,119 --> 01:56:40,079
you find it very funny? Apparently? Yeah, you're up there, Yes

1840
01:56:40,199 --> 01:56:42,840
it is. It is funny.
You could tell by how much I tell

1841
01:56:42,880 --> 01:56:45,880
you it's funny. It's hilarious.
It's okay, you're Ryan. Shouldn't pay

1842
01:56:45,880 --> 01:56:48,359
attention, Yeah, yeah, should
pay attention. Uh that's it, though.

1843
01:56:48,399 --> 01:56:50,720
I think I think we're I think
we're done here. Got a lot

1844
01:56:50,800 --> 01:56:54,720
done today. Uh sorry, there
was don at ten dogs everybody, but

1845
01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:57,600
it was on the holiday and it
just didn't work out. We'll be back.

1846
01:56:57,760 --> 01:56:59,680
We could have tried we'll do push
in a recording, but it would

1847
01:56:59,680 --> 01:57:01,760
have been cult and we differently.
We're going to do all of half fast.

1848
01:57:01,880 --> 01:57:05,239
So yeah, but we'll do on
Tuesday. We'll just do We'll just

1849
01:57:05,279 --> 01:57:09,880
take questions again and uh yeah,
we'll be back with some ninten. We'll

1850
01:57:09,880 --> 01:57:13,720
be ninten donging it raw dogging it
very soon. Don't worry. That's exactly

1851
01:57:13,840 --> 01:57:16,520
right. Um, people people did
jedied moss esday. Do you finished Here's

1852
01:57:16,520 --> 01:57:18,119
the Kingdom? No? But it
is the game. I continue to be

1853
01:57:18,159 --> 01:57:21,840
playing the most. That is what
I'm mostly working on, and I'm I'm

1854
01:57:21,880 --> 01:57:26,479
getting there. I'm just like continue
cleaning stuff up. Before I even gone

1855
01:57:26,479 --> 01:57:30,920
to the Fourth Temple, I just
also the things really happened where. That

1856
01:57:31,119 --> 01:57:33,640
is the game. Addie wants to
be playing all the time now. She's

1857
01:57:33,640 --> 01:57:38,640
a big, big fan of Ink. She continues to say she likes Ink.

1858
01:57:38,760 --> 01:57:41,199
She likes Dada and Ink Cloves the
only two guys she likes. Other

1859
01:57:41,239 --> 01:57:45,199
than that showsn't like men um,
but she's been playing a lot. She

1860
01:57:45,319 --> 01:57:47,960
likes you. I'll remember about Uncle
Mikey so that she knows. Uh,

1861
01:57:48,199 --> 01:57:51,359
but maybe she just thinks you're Ink
as well. Um, maybe I thought

1862
01:57:51,399 --> 01:57:55,560
she though she thought every other bald
guy with a beard was Uncle Mike that

1863
01:57:55,720 --> 01:57:59,479
we definitely had that era for sure, that definitely happened, not even necessarily

1864
01:57:59,520 --> 01:58:04,239
bald, but especially bold um.
But I'm still really loving Tears of the

1865
01:58:04,319 --> 01:58:09,560
Kingdom, still easily my game of
the year. Uh okay, mikey,

1866
01:58:09,920 --> 01:58:13,479
I am going to hit the button
and then I'm gonna ask you, where

1867
01:58:13,640 --> 01:58:17,600
can people find you on the internet? Uh find me on Twitch and Twitter

1868
01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:23,560
at toe you know, on blue
Sky at tolkoto, and I guess on

1869
01:58:23,800 --> 01:58:28,239
threads at Mike Tulkoto somehow the one
place where Tolkoto was taken. I don't

1870
01:58:28,239 --> 01:58:30,399
know about this threads thing. I
haven't posted on that. I'm not gonna.

1871
01:58:30,560 --> 01:58:32,239
I'm not gonna even tried to invest
in the until there's a desktop version.

1872
01:58:32,880 --> 01:58:36,359
Uh we'll see. But yeah,
and go go to games Beats,

1873
01:58:36,520 --> 01:58:40,039
always doing stuff there. Jeff and
I have funnel with a blight club.

1874
01:58:40,079 --> 01:58:43,000
Today. I made him play some
Flintstones games. I've been in such a

1875
01:58:43,079 --> 01:58:48,840
Flintstones mood for some reason, because
you're a boomer. Yeah, I don't

1876
01:58:48,840 --> 01:58:53,000
have any defense. There's no way
I get justified not being bold if I

1877
01:58:53,119 --> 01:58:59,279
liked the Flintstones, h I am
Jeff Grub In most places, on threads,

1878
01:58:59,319 --> 01:59:01,800
I am Jeff Bee grub grub because
mine was also taken, like and

1879
01:59:01,960 --> 01:59:04,960
all of my like normal backups were
also taken. Yeah, I don't.

1880
01:59:05,039 --> 01:59:09,359
Yeah, it's because so many people
have Instagram accounts. It's definite right,

1881
01:59:09,520 --> 01:59:13,399
it's stupid. Yeah, I was
a grub zero zero four seven, which

1882
01:59:13,439 --> 01:59:15,279
is actually what I am on discord
now, after I had to choose a

1883
01:59:15,359 --> 01:59:18,760
name, which was my discord that
was discord with numbers. It was discording

1884
01:59:18,920 --> 01:59:24,079
thought you were seven grub. It's
a completely normal thing to think, completely

1885
01:59:24,159 --> 01:59:27,760
normal thing to say, very stupid, very normal thing to think that that's

1886
01:59:27,760 --> 01:59:33,159
how it would work. I am
also on Twitch, Twitch dot tv slash

1887

you're going look out for that has Whopper.

1901
02:00:27,039 --> 02:00:39,159
I think that's pretty cool. Least
we were one of the name of

1902
02:00:39,319 --> 02:00:42,159

she was going to just say pretty cool.

1903
02:00:42,199 --> 02:00:47,000

she's about Yes, I say,

1904
02:00:51,039 --> 02:01:05,760
bad ass white girl joint, fuck

1905
02:01:05,800 --> 02:01:09,439
in the podcast producers, and and
then Sean was like, no, we

1906
02:01:09,439 --> 02:01:12,239
haven't done that before, because if
we had, I would yell at Mike.

1907
02:01:12,279 --> 02:01:14,279
I'm like, I want, I
wonder what that's about. I didn't

1908
02:01:14,279 --> 02:01:17,039
put in the group chat putting podcasts
producer. I didn't even put it in

1909
02:01:17,079 --> 02:01:19,680
the podcast producers that were doing that. I just asked if we'd done it

1910
02:01:19,760 --> 02:01:25,199
before, and then I might have
said I might have said that that sounds

1911
02:01:25,279 --> 02:01:27,680
fun. Yeah, it'll it's easy, like that's why we do them like

1912
02:01:27,720 --> 02:01:30,319

just think of some arcades, sports games.

because I don't see it on the group

1917
02:01:45,039 --> 02:01:46,199
chat, no, I didn't.
I didn't put it in the group chat.

1918
02:01:46,399 --> 02:01:49,880
I put it in podcast producers and
