Mike, please just 25 00:02:19,199 --> 00:02:24,240 tell me how you're doing. I'm great snacks. Welcome to grus Snacks there, 26 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:30,120 right, buddy, let's go how games making money? Um? Yeah, 27 00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:34,120 I'm doing fantastic. I got to play some Voters game right before this. 28 00:02:34,159 --> 00:02:38,039 I streamed a couple of hours of it. Yeah they got I think 29 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,240 they like they're onto something there. Me too. I've not played a couple 30 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,800 hours and played about an hour and was like, oh, now I get 31 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,000 it. This seems like something that could be very fun. Uh. I 32 00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:51,000 think I probably do want to play as much as as possible, and multiplayer 33 00:02:51,039 --> 00:02:53,319 I just don't. I mean, how do you do eighty hour RPG. 34 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,919 See, I want to do the opposite. I don't think I ever want 35 00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,439 to play that Caveman multi player. I like the idea of um doing a 36 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,439 Dungeons and Dragons sort of thing in a very confined environment like this, where 37 00:03:05,719 --> 00:03:07,439 um, you know, most of the fun is taken care of for us, 38 00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:13,039 but then I can still get the campaign, you know, with friends, 39 00:03:13,199 --> 00:03:16,479 campaigning with friends sort of energy by doing multiplayers. UM. Also just 40 00:03:16,479 --> 00:03:19,919 seems like it's like they did a lot of work to make that interesting by 41 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,800 you being able to wherever you see what it's like. But I'm skeptical. 42 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:25,960 I'm skeptical that yeah, yeah, it's uh yeah, right, how does 43 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,240 that all work together? And does it actually is it that much more fun? 44 00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:32,240 Or you know that the game is about the story and the characters, 45 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,280 so maybe it is all actually better by yourself, But I don't know. 46 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,800 Well, we'll talk a little bit more about that. We're gonna talk about 47 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,879 Nintinill making money, Quake two remaster possibly coming all that first though, do 48 00:03:43,879 --> 00:03:46,199 you have something to say I didn't know about this Quake two remaster news. 49 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,240 Yeah, there's there's rumors out there. I'm not gonna sounds quite cons happening 50 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,039 soon? Isn't interesting? I think, I think it's happening soon. Yes, 51 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,319 and it's happening. Is it happening this month? That makes sense. 52 00:03:55,319 --> 00:03:59,319 I saw there's a quake, con sale or something, so I assumed it 53 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,120 was happening. I think quick CON's happening like next week, I think. 54 00:04:01,199 --> 00:04:04,039 But hey, hey, hey, we'll check on that real quick. This 55 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,800 is episode three hundred and eleven. That's as many episodes as the as The 56 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,120 Giant Beast Cast had. So get fucked Beast Cast? Is it really? 57 00:04:13,199 --> 00:04:15,480 Jeez? Forget eleven? Was the last episode? We looked that up the 58 00:04:15,519 --> 00:04:18,639 other day as I lostened up, It's like, aren't we like literally like 59 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,839 last week? I was like, aren't we almost at three to eleven? 60 00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:27,240 There we go, Finally a better podcast than The Beast Cast.

I have some big topics of the week I want 79 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,240 to discuss with you. Mike. Are you ready, mikey ready? Boulders 80 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,720 Gate three has a lot of people playing it right this very second when I 81 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,519 check before the show, right now, before the show, that we're doing 82 00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:44,519 it was at about four hundred and forty thousand concurrent players on Steam. Games 83 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,600 don't do that, like like, there's a handful of games that do, 84 00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:51,879 and they're the biggest games in the world. This game is doing that. 85 00:05:51,879 --> 00:05:58,959 That is it's incomprehensible how successful this game is. Obviously a lot of it 86 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,519 is zeitgeist, but he just you can't manufacture this stuff. This sort of 87 00:06:01,519 --> 00:06:04,959 thing just happens because it's get you know, a lot of bent pent up 88 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,240 demand, and it's it's giving people what they want, and it's also doing 89 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,959 it in a surprising way, in a bold way. And when you put 90 00:06:11,959 --> 00:06:15,560 bear fucking in your game, that's just what happens, right, Yeah, 91 00:06:15,639 --> 00:06:18,879 I think there's been a lot of hunger for one of these, Jeff, 92 00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:21,839 we have, you know, think about the Dragon Age Freaks, right, 93 00:06:21,879 --> 00:06:26,560 this isn't exactly like that, but for those people, this is probably the 94 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,720 closest they've gotten to that in a long time. Especially they don't want to 95 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,759 play. You know, We've had some other CRPGs lately that are probably looking 96 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:38,959 more traditional. Even this has that kind of triple a sheen to it that 97 00:06:38,959 --> 00:06:42,480 I think it's just going to help it appeal to more people that stuff just 98 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,800 does I mean, and I played it for a couple hours right before this. 99 00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:48,480 I was pretty shocked how good the production vetues are. I haven't tried 100 00:06:48,519 --> 00:06:51,480 it an early access or anything. I was like, Oh, this is 101 00:06:51,519 --> 00:06:57,439 like a much more of just a big triple A RPG that I was kind 102 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,800 of expecting. I thought maybe this would be the aim to get lost in 103 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,839 the shuffle of all these big games coming out. Nope, moving a little 104 00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:10,720 bit was very smart because this is now just another chapter in what excuse me, 105 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:15,120 has been a ridiculously good year. Yeah, and it's this game feels 106 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,319 like it is going to hit all of the beats in terms of getting attention 107 00:07:19,319 --> 00:07:24,759 at the right time. So here's its big launch on PC. It's hugely 108 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,959 successful. It's getting really good reviews or good word of mouth so far, 109 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,519 you know, when people haven't had enough time to play it for most reviews 110 00:07:30,519 --> 00:07:32,839 to come out, but it's you know, people are positive about it. 111 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:38,000 And then all the excitement of it's selling really well is going to get those 112 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,759 people on PlayStation five excited. And when everyone is playing in Starfield, it's 113 00:07:41,759 --> 00:07:45,199 going to launch that day on PS five and those PS five players are like, 114 00:07:45,199 --> 00:07:46,079 well, I'll just play poulterers Gate three then and then it's going to 115 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,199 have another huge successful day, I bet. So this game is just prime 116 00:07:50,279 --> 00:07:56,000 to crush and and it already is obviously, and you know, I think 117 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,199 a lot of it just seems earned. And boy, I think early access 118 00:07:59,519 --> 00:08:05,879 is an unsung sort of hero in terms of getting games like this into a 119 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,839 strong Like Hades is the last one that was like, maybe not the last 120 00:08:07,839 --> 00:08:11,079 one, last one that I can think of that just had a long early 121 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,720 access period, was very popular throughout that early access period, and then it 122 00:08:15,759 --> 00:08:18,480 went one point zero and it just demolished and took over the entire world. 123 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,480 And I would be very happy if more games did exactly this. And I 124 00:08:24,519 --> 00:08:28,839 think this game feels like the one that can convince more bigger games to actually 125 00:08:28,839 --> 00:08:31,800 try that. I know some people are like, oh, you know, 126 00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:33,279 moments it's triple a game and should just be finished when I play it. 127 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,919 Fuck that do this? This is great? Well, because I you know, 128 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,559 like I don't like I don't like early access, so I just didn't 129 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,440 play it. I touch just game in early access. But there's a lot 130 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,679 of people who are like happy to get that feedback or happy to like experience 131 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,679 throughout that and it's like they're going to do all the beta testing for you 132 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,799 and now there is a refined product. Yeah exactly. And you know it 133 00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:54,440 also helped cause you know, so those are all people who have been buying 134 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,159 this game over the course of you know, the couple of years it's been 135 00:08:58,159 --> 00:09:01,480 in early access or whatever it's been. That's part of why there is such 136 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,320 a big first day, I think, because they're already you know, it's 137 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,120 not like sales or this game went up today. There there's been some pre 138 00:09:07,279 --> 00:09:09,320 orders a month before. People have been buying this game over the course of 139 00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:13,399 years, and now they're all immediately jumping in and we can you know, 140 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,399 if if almost five hundred thousand people are playing at a given moment and the 141 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,879 game has already sold over a million copies, probably even two million at that 142 00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:24,039 point, it's not like everybody who bought the game is playing it right now, 143 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,519 right, So yeah, all right, it's insane for this kind of 144 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,799 game, which you would think is pretty niche Yes, And like you would, 145 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,519 you would also think that those early access sales people be like, well, 146 00:09:33,639 --> 00:09:35,759 yeah, I tried it an early access and so I'm not like rushing 147 00:09:35,799 --> 00:09:39,240 to get back to it for the one point. Oh no, that didn't 148 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,679 rushing They are rushing back. Everyone wants to be here for day one, 149 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:46,879 whether they played it or not. And yeah, it's just it's a sign 150 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,080 that that early access I think is going to continue to grow. And you 151 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,360 know, fire Hair and Chet says man, I wouldn't mind it if this 152 00:09:52,399 --> 00:09:54,080 is what it takes to get COT or remake off the ground, likeactly what 153 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,720 they should do, Like you're not worried about spoilers right now? Who cares? 154 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,039 Like God, they should have done that. Yeah, and they should 155 00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:03,799 still try it, Like that is a very good idea for a game like 156 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,600 that, three years of early access like this game got for for code or 157 00:10:07,639 --> 00:10:09,960 remake. Yeah, but I would that would I would just I would love 158 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,639 that. I would be very happy with that. If someone who's had really 159 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:18,120 good experiences with early access games like Dead Cells and others before Minecraft and Kurbel 160 00:10:18,159 --> 00:10:22,120 Space program like it has always worked for me for the most part, and 161 00:10:22,159 --> 00:10:26,000 when it doesn't, it's like okay, yeah, so what, I lost 162 00:10:26,039 --> 00:10:28,919 a little bit of money on a game that I'd end up not liking. 163 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:35,360 That happens with finished games all the time, So so what um, I 164 00:10:35,399 --> 00:10:39,840 mean this is also it feels like it is coming on the it's riding the 165 00:10:39,879 --> 00:10:45,240 wave of Dungeons and Dragons being more popular than it's ever been. Clearly, 166 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,039 I think people people heard like, hey, this is a good way to 167 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,080 experience Dungeons and Dragons as a video game. It's like the most robust take 168 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,200 on that ever, and I think that's having an effect as well. What 169 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,840 do you think? Yeah, I mean, I know the movie wasn't a 170 00:10:56,879 --> 00:10:58,360 bag it, but people did really like it. I don't was that movie 171 00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:03,000 Forgotten Realms or is it something else? I don't know. I don't know. 172 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,759 I honestly, I don't know the difference between Forgotten don Realms is just 173 00:11:05,799 --> 00:11:09,960 where I said, a very like a very popular setting that a lot of 174 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:13,679 D and D stuff takes place in. It was originally just some guys setting. 175 00:11:13,799 --> 00:11:16,840 I think it ended up working at a Wizards the Coast or whatever it 176 00:11:16,879 --> 00:11:18,759 is that does that stuff. So a lot of things, most of the 177 00:11:18,759 --> 00:11:22,919 big stuff do you think of, was D and D Like Never Winter It 178 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,440 was definitely I mean, I know Never Winter was in it and they talked 179 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,440 about that, but I know the there you go then, Yeah, So 180 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,879 basically I think basically most of the mainstream D and D stuff takes place in 181 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,720 forgotten realms, which you know, makes sense. You have that kind of 182 00:11:35,799 --> 00:11:39,240 unified setting and lore that you can work with. It makes a lot of 183 00:11:39,279 --> 00:11:41,960 sense. I started watching that movie and I had a really good time, 184 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,679 and yeah, I sugar back and fan of shit. Yeah yeah. My 185 00:11:45,159 --> 00:11:46,840 my one brother saw it and like the one who's even kind of less into 186 00:11:48,039 --> 00:11:50,879 fantasy nerds stuff, and he actually seemed to like it a lot. I 187 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,759 like Chris Pratt just fine, So yeah, I should see that movie. 188 00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:56,080 But no, I think you're right. You know, a lot of the 189 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,679 stuff that was probably really impenetrable for a lot lot of people, even in 190 00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,960 the nineties. I think a lot of us are much more used to the 191 00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:09,240 concept of rolling. Yeah, what's wrong, you said Pratt? And I 192 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,039 was like, I knew that was the right, but aptit care enough to 193 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,799 because it's so they're all Chris Is to us, They're all just Chrismas exactly, 194 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,399 Chris p Yeah, Chris PA was going to clap you, so I 195 00:12:18,519 --> 00:12:22,039 was just trying to do it before claps No matter what I do, Yeah, 196 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,679 boomer take Oh. I thought to say, do you see Gary Witta 197 00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:30,000 clap the people calling him boomer. I was like, hell yeah, Gary, 198 00:12:30,159 --> 00:12:33,559 Hell yeah, we're on your side like that. Although if I staying 199 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,360 with you, that means I am a boomer because you're very old. Love 200 00:12:37,399 --> 00:12:41,080 you, Gary, but it's like, yeah, I mean the movie did 201 00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:45,799 okay, But I mean some of those D and D real play podcasts are 202 00:12:45,879 --> 00:12:50,279 the biggest podcasts in the world. Critical Role is an industry unto itself, 203 00:12:50,159 --> 00:12:54,639 so that stuff has penetrated the mainstream, and I think this game is benefiting 204 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,919 from it. People are like telling me I should do D and D. 205 00:12:58,039 --> 00:12:58,879 While I was playing this, I was like, it's hard to get grouped. 206 00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,360 Well, I think we one day maybe think about that. Yeah, 207 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,399 we definitely should. I think that would be uh, that would be fun 208 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,600 and maybe we could be something we could do with game masks. We could 209 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,159 do that with the Giant Bomb as well. Maybe that could work. Um, 210 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,440 I would really enjoy that. I have never liked hard to get a 211 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,879 group together. You have to find we got a serious dungeon master, right, 212 00:13:20,919 --> 00:13:24,600 Oh yeah, for sure, exactly. We'll see something we'll think about. 213 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,480 But I'm very I am very impressed, just both with the success already 214 00:13:28,879 --> 00:13:33,120 and with the quality of the game. Both really have exceeded my expectations. 215 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,639 I think this is going to be kind of kind of a big deal. 216 00:13:35,799 --> 00:13:39,159 I don't think it's funny because like Pater's Gate was always a sort of kind 217 00:13:39,159 --> 00:13:41,480 of a big deal in the nisos, this prestige thing, we all knew 218 00:13:41,519 --> 00:13:43,480 about it. This seems like I think this is going to hit a lot 219 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:48,080 more people than even that did in its height. Who knows what that means. 220 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,480 Maybe Walter's Great Faked four might happen sooner rather than later. Maybe it's 221 00:13:52,519 --> 00:13:56,720 when Dale's back on the menu, right, never winner all this stuff. 222 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,120 And maybe I'm getting too excited too early because it is just day one, 223 00:14:01,759 --> 00:14:07,360 but boy, this seems like a really good day one. Yeah, and 224 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,960 it's like, I mean, we don't have to jump to what does this 225 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,759 mean next? But yeah, like you said, they could do the Iceman 226 00:14:13,799 --> 00:14:16,240 Dale, never Winter Nights, all those things. But Larry and Larry and 227 00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:20,080 the developer of this game, they came off Divinity Original Sin too, a 228 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,360 very similarly praised game, although you know that was never in the realm of 229 00:14:24,399 --> 00:14:26,360 success this is having, although it was very successful, very successful for what 230 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,519 it was. Yeah, um, you know do they. It kind of 231 00:14:31,559 --> 00:14:35,000 feels like the gravity of this is going to pull them into almost no matter 232 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,480 what, you're going to do a follow up the Boulder Skate three of some 233 00:14:37,679 --> 00:14:41,200 kind. Well, right, and they've said they have already said they want 234 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,720 to go back to Divinity original sins And I get that that's their world, 235 00:14:43,879 --> 00:14:50,120 of course, but it feels like the forgotten realms are going to come a 236 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,320 call in again at some point here. Yeah, and you know this is 237 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:58,960 um I think the kind of thing where they may have like a from software 238 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,559 are like like our here where you're like, yeah, we do we want 239 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,440 to go back and do our own thing, but maybe they will just grow 240 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,120 enough that they can kind of do both going forward. And uh, this 241 00:15:09,279 --> 00:15:15,679 studio feels it does feel like the RPG King now they have and that was 242 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,000 a vacuum that has been left open by EA, EAS, BioWare and a 243 00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:22,600 handful of other studios that just sort of like we're like, we're not going 244 00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:26,519 to make those kinds of games anymore. And then it seems like a really 245 00:15:26,559 --> 00:15:33,720 stupid decision and even more already did really fucking stupid. Yeah, I mean 246 00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:35,720 I get that, you like, it's so easy to like, if we 247 00:15:35,879 --> 00:15:39,360 just make this game, we sand off some of these edges and we make 248 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,320 it about shooting and all this stuff, it's going to appeal to this wider 249 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,480 audience. And it's like, man, you just don't go for the wider 250 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,759 audience, go for the horn of your audience, and just go for the 251 00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:52,000 people who are just desperate for this kind of game. And here it is. 252 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:56,480 Turns out more than ever people are either curious or very into this kind 253 00:15:56,519 --> 00:16:00,360 of game, and here we are. And you're right, a lot of 254 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,639 it comes down to high production values. You know, you start the game 255 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,440 after your character creator and you see like that long view and you're like, 256 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:08,200 oh, yeah, it's a top down and then you zoom in a little 257 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,759 bit. It's, oh, Matt, God, look at all the detail 258 00:16:10,799 --> 00:16:12,679 here. This is like, this is an increasing amount of detail. Yeah, 259 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,440 I kind of wasn't expecting it, you know, just when you're talking 260 00:16:15,519 --> 00:16:18,039 to Yeah. I liked the video originals in two, but it was still 261 00:16:18,159 --> 00:16:23,080 very much always overhead, you know, character dialogue box is talking to That's 262 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,799 fine, I don't have a problem with it. But this is when you're 263 00:16:26,799 --> 00:16:30,519 talking to people, it is suddenly much more like that Dragon Age style. 264 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,200 But you know, kind of looks better than Dragon Age ever did. Really, 265 00:16:33,279 --> 00:16:38,320 so just really impressive, really really impressed. This year is just ridiculous. 266 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,240 Jeff Yep, I uh, it's it's gonna be a tough one. 267 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:48,080 Like listen, I think kind of Tears of the Kingdom is still surprisingly for 268 00:16:48,159 --> 00:16:51,840 how strong this year is the shoe in for Game of the Year. But 269 00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:56,519 figuring out what that top ten looks like, it's going to be exciting because 270 00:16:56,519 --> 00:17:00,360 there's so many possibilities for very good games to be in that two, three, 271 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,879 four, five, six, seven slot and maybe you know, Walter's 272 00:17:03,919 --> 00:17:06,960 Gate if it picks up momentum from this point, it very easily could be 273 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,039 the kind of thing where it's like, actually, no enough people love that 274 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,720 enough that it could knock Zelda off in a lot of a Game of the 275 00:17:11,799 --> 00:17:15,480 Year. I mean the fact that this could like probably be up there, 276 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,599 and like the nominations at the Game Years for Game Awards for a Game of 277 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:26,400 the Year, that's at yep. Absolutely. There was then the Tendo earnings 278 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,039 report where they announced that the Switches at one hundred and thirty million units sold 279 00:17:30,839 --> 00:17:34,400 and the Tiers of the Kingdom is at eighteen point five million copies sold and 280 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,880 that's in about two months, like a little bit under two months, very 281 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:44,599 impressive for both the Switch hardware sales were up sixty percent in Japan year over 282 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,720 year. They were down seven percent in the Americas. So it's like, 283 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,599 yeah, the hardware, and that's I think, Um, it was something 284 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,799 about Japan right now is just getting even more into the Switch than ever before. 285 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:57,559 That's happening with both tiers of the Kingdom. But also pick him and 286 00:17:57,599 --> 00:18:00,640 four doing very well there. Yeah, are they having like what's the economic 287 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,200 situation in Japan right now? Is or Canny any kind of boost or something 288 00:18:04,279 --> 00:18:08,759 happening over there? I mean no, not necessarily. There's um, you 289 00:18:08,839 --> 00:18:11,880 know, the the yen has been very devalued, but that's that would that 290 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,000 means they have less purchasing power and yet they're still showing up for all these 291 00:18:15,079 --> 00:18:19,000 Nintendo games. So honestly, I think it's I think it's beyond the economic 292 00:18:19,079 --> 00:18:23,079 situation and it comes down to excitement about Nintendo is higher than ever. And 293 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,480 maybe it's the Mario movie, Like maybe people are just like maybe super into 294 00:18:27,599 --> 00:18:33,599 Nintendo overall and it's manifesting across all these games. Could be that, but 295 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,960 man, let me gosh again. Pickman four the last couple of nights, 296 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,920 I've really been playing that and for some reason, like getting past all this 297 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,640 stuff in the demo and actually, sorry, I think playing that one off 298 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:47,440 stream. I don't know why that mattered. Really enjoying that now too. 299 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:52,440 Pickman four is really fun. It's really good. I'm really enjoying that loop. 300 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,119 It has so much of a I'll just do one more day kind of 301 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,599 a thing. I would just do this one more thing and then stuff to 302 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:02,599 like keep that interesting. And because there's always like, oh one more day, 303 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:03,960 now do one more of these things, it doesn't take as much time. 304 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,079 And it's it's it's fair. The people who are like video games aren't 305 00:19:07,079 --> 00:19:15,359 goodnymore, such stupid assholes. It's the stupidest take you could possibly you know. 306 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,440 And I love retro gaming and I would be fine just playing games for 307 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,440 the rest of my life. I had to so many video games. There's 308 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,680 just coming in spite of everything, in spite of all this shit, like 309 00:19:25,799 --> 00:19:29,599 how hard it is to make them, how problematic it can be sometimes like 310 00:19:29,759 --> 00:19:33,039 every you know, all these challenges and we are still getting a year like 311 00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:37,559 this. If you think that overall video games just aren't what they used to 312 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,599 be. Are bad. You are just a stupid asshole, yep. And 313 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,759 it's uh, it's very like it's annoying because a lot of that, there's 314 00:19:45,759 --> 00:19:48,519 sentiment like that from all kinds of corners. But a lot of time, 315 00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:52,039 a lot of times I'll hear from like doctor disrespects is like it's weird. 316 00:19:52,599 --> 00:19:56,160 Yeah, oh you're you're you're like, you're getting bored. It's playing the 317 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,319 same shooters for forever. Like, honestly, look in the mirror. If 318 00:19:59,319 --> 00:20:02,480 you're looking for someone to blame for that game. People started making games for 319 00:20:02,759 --> 00:20:06,519 you, and here we are. But like, if you could just step 320 00:20:06,559 --> 00:20:08,680 out of your damn comfort zone a little bit, there are so much amazing 321 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:15,079 stuff happening everywhere, to the point where like this year, it is happening 322 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,319 in every it feels like every single too, Like a battle bit is like 323 00:20:18,599 --> 00:20:21,960 an interesting multiplayer shooter. And then you know, and then all these indie 324 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,599 games are being super successful and then Triple A games, I don't they rarely 325 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,279 have they been better like they have, Like we are lucky. I think 326 00:20:29,279 --> 00:20:30,519 it's the best time to be playing video games. For sure. It has 327 00:20:30,559 --> 00:20:36,480 been insane yea, Tiers of the Kingdom eighteen point five million copies sold. 328 00:20:36,599 --> 00:20:41,559 That's very good. Yeah, I mean fantastic that you compare that to the 329 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:47,160 first party releases for any other platform. None of them sell that fast. 330 00:20:47,519 --> 00:20:51,400 Just not a single one has a game that sells that fast. Spider Man 331 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,240 will come out and it'll sell faster than any other PlayStation game Spider Man two 332 00:20:55,319 --> 00:20:57,200 later this year, it will not be at eighteen point five million copies in 333 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:02,599 two months. It won't even be close. So uh yeah, it's that's 334 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:07,119 just Zelda is one of these top tier franchises beyond anything else in gaming right 335 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:11,480 now, and Nintendo's really capitalizing on that. A few updates on the switch 336 00:21:11,559 --> 00:21:15,960 too, and let's not like let's start like a little warning here. I 337 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,519 listened to Nate the Hates podcast where these rumors are coming from. He said, 338 00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:26,000 this is informed speculation, nothing confirmed, but he's heard rumors murmuring. 339 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,720 He says, whispers, industry whispers, which I know what he means by 340 00:21:27,799 --> 00:21:30,839 that, and it's like stuff you can't confirm, Like that's just what that 341 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,000 means. And I know what. I've kind of heard something similar, but 342 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,480 nothing like the details that he has of the screen, that LCD screen that's 343 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,559 not an old being eight inches instead of like I think the seven point five 344 00:21:42,839 --> 00:21:48,240 or seven inches that the old switches. And then it will have five hundred 345 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,039 and twelve gigabytes of internal storage, not an SSD, it'll be flash storage, 346 00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:56,400 so e MMC, which is kind of what like the steam the base 347 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,960 steam deck has, which is actually surprising fast these days, if you get 348 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,160 a fast enough CPU to process that stuff. Um, how's that signed? 349 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,640 You? Sound of you? Mike? It sounds about right. I mean, 350 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,200 you know, I'm not shocked. It's uh, it would be nice 351 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,440 to have an SSD in there, nice to have an all let the screen 352 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:17,799 being a little bigger, fine whatever, Uh yeah, that's fine. That's 353 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,079 none of the stuff I'm really really expecting or opinning by hopes on. So 354 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,119 much of it is just kind of what's the what's the CPU and GPU going 355 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,839 to be like? What is what are the quality of the game's gonna look 356 00:22:26,839 --> 00:22:30,920 like? What? What's it going to be comparable too? Is comparable to 357 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,039 place you should for? Places you shouldn't for? Plus what did they call 358 00:22:34,079 --> 00:22:37,680 that shit place? Bro? Bro? Yes? Yes, you know, 359 00:22:37,839 --> 00:22:41,240 So that's that's all I want to just want my games to look at bit 360 00:22:41,279 --> 00:22:45,440 better and to run a bit better. That's practically all I need from the 361 00:22:45,559 --> 00:22:51,519 new switch. More storage. Sure SSD not shocked that that's something they're probably 362 00:22:51,519 --> 00:22:55,559 gonna make us this time. I want there will be like the switch to 363 00:22:55,839 --> 00:22:59,200 BRO and it will do this shit like well, you know, not just 364 00:22:59,319 --> 00:23:03,359 the lip but the and an SSD altogether. Here. Yeah, it feels 365 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,400 like, um, you're right this generation they'll introduce some fast storage option at 366 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,720 some point. But it does sound like they are picking and choosing their battles 367 00:23:12,759 --> 00:23:18,079 with where they're going to spend the budget of manufacturing this console. Um so 368 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,920 pulling back from the old ED to save some money using flash storage instead of 369 00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:26,799 SSD, but making that bigger, um and get it. You know, 370 00:23:26,839 --> 00:23:29,960 they're not you know, they have to make something that is going to they 371 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,480 can't make anything. It's gonna cost probably more than four hundred dollars. They 372 00:23:32,799 --> 00:23:34,039 can't get away with that, probably, I mean can get away with it. 373 00:23:36,519 --> 00:23:41,160 You think four fifty maybe maybe it's probably four hundred. You're probably probably 374 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:45,359 four hundred. It's probably gonna be four hundred because it's you know what they 375 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,400 got to o edit three fifty. So four hundred. It's going to be 376 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,400 four hundred, at least four hundred, but probably four hundred. I mean, 377 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,160 they don't want a three DS repeat right where you have the successor to 378 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,759 your really popular console, but it's a lot more expensive than that one ever 379 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:02,839 was. That can really throw people off exactly. So it's like, you 380 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:07,160 know, you got to balance all these things out. But if the bulk 381 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:14,039 of that four hundred dollars goes towards the really good performance for what it is, 382 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,799 most people are going to be Okay, this is fine. That actually 383 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,480 is the most important thing. We want. Nintendo games that rob run it's 384 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,599 sixty frames per second, and then the most three the third party games kind 385 00:24:25,599 --> 00:24:27,319 of getting pretty close to that. Like that's where I think people want the 386 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:33,160 switch to be going forward. Um, all right, there's an Oblivion remake 387 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,920 rumor out there. They're going to remake Oblivion. I you know, in 388 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,240 terms of remakes, I think this one makes a lot of sense. It 389 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,680 is in that butter zone of it's not so old you have to redo everything. 390 00:24:45,839 --> 00:24:48,920 And that's one of the things about this rumor is they wouldn't redo the 391 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,319 physics or anything necessarily. Maybe they'll spruce it up, but they're going to 392 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,839 use the original creation engine too. I can't remember what the what the Bethest 393 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,319 engine is called, but the physics and the gameplay interactions would come from that, 394 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,400 and then they would redo the visuals in Unreal Engine and sort of pair 395 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:08,200 those things up together. And you could do that with something that isn't quite 396 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,440 as old as some other stuff. Oblivion is kind of right there on the 397 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,480 cusp where you can get away with that, and I personally would really like 398 00:25:15,599 --> 00:25:18,440 that. I love Oblivion, Mike, So I hope this is true, 399 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,400 and I hope that we're playing this in the next couple of years. Oblivian 400 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,119 is a great game, and it really does just need a bit of polish, 401 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,359 especially you know, graphically, character models, stuff like that. But 402 00:25:27,559 --> 00:25:32,799 otherwise there's a lot to really like in Oblivion. I think it's story is 403 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,440 better than Skyrim. I think it's questionnairetives were generally better than in Skyramion, 404 00:25:37,559 --> 00:25:40,599 even though I do like Skyrim a lot. Yeah, they is. I 405 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,480 do hope they go back tomorrow when at some point, just because that's when 406 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:47,559 I actually haven't played much of so I'd like an excuse to sort of be 407 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,599 able to play that on modern stuff and have it looking a little spiffier and 408 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:56,720 all that stuff. Yeah, same, And I think that probably won't happen 409 00:25:56,839 --> 00:25:59,640 right away, but maybe they get to that eventually. I think the much 410 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,039 more likely path is they do Oblivion and then fall Out three and then fall 411 00:26:03,079 --> 00:26:08,319 Out four and in Vegas and then Skyrim probably actually does get a full remake. 412 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,640 Question. Yeah, but probably the time you're right, yeah, right, 413 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,759 at some point that's going to be like a twenty year old game, 414 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,839 The Lincoln. That's going to happen. Yep, exactly, so, but 415 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,079 you know, at some point in there, it's like, Okay, let's 416 00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:23,319 figure out how to do this with Morrow and as well. And I hope 417 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,640 they do because that one deserves it as well. It's just it would we 418 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,799 see that it's a lot of extra work on top of all this other stuff. 419 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:36,039 Um finally, Quake two remasters rumored to come out August eleventh. I 420 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:40,880 think Bill Bill Kuhne, that leaker on Twitter is responsible for this one. 421 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,759 That would be fantastic. They did it at Quake one remaster. Machine Games 422 00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:48,319 worked on that. Machine Games is rumored to be working on a first person 423 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:53,279 shooter that it's got to be probably Quake two remaster, if not a whole 424 00:26:53,319 --> 00:26:56,279 new Quake, which maybe that could get announced too, but at the very 425 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,680 least I expect Quake to remaster to get an anounced and shadow dropped, probably 426 00:27:00,759 --> 00:27:04,119 with the Quake Con, which I'm gonna double check. I probably that must 427 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,680 be happening if that's coming out August, right, And I mean night I've 428 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,559 also worked on I think night Thine was like the main developer on the Quake 429 00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:15,559 one game sort of contributed a new campaign exactly right, Yes, that's what 430 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:19,160 it was. Um boy, I hope. So is this is during Quake 431 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,920 Con by the way, Okay, yeah, so it makes sense it's for 432 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,640 a shadow drop. I mean, you did Quake one, why not do 433 00:27:25,799 --> 00:27:30,039 Quake two. Quake two is such a that was such an interesting game because 434 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,079 that was the game back then. That was what we were all testing, 435 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:37,200 the graphic cards of the day on the Voodoo two and stuff like that. 436 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,480 You want that transparent water, Yeah, yeah, exactly, because I mean 437 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,240 it was, you know, an all polygon game, and it was one 438 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,920 of the first ones of like quick you know, the actual free mouse look 439 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,880 everywhere and all that stuff. It's interesting too because it's very different from Quake 440 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:53,880 one in a lot of ways, like Quake one has that kind of a 441 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,599 cult stuff going on, quite too pure sci fi from what I remember, 442 00:28:00,279 --> 00:28:03,079 kind of what Quake would go into in the future of stuff like Quake three, 443 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,839 Rin, I would love an excuse to play Quake two again. See 444 00:28:06,839 --> 00:28:08,559 it's bruced up. I'd be very excited for that. I hope this is 445 00:28:08,599 --> 00:28:14,279 true. Uh okay, I think I does it for the news. I 446 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:15,359 wanted to discuss. But Mike, we got a bunch of super chats, 447 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,880 so people wanted to bring their own stuff to the show. So let's let's 448 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,039 hop into those real quick, and then we'll take a break and get to 449 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:26,160 our topic of the week. Yeah, I'm a I'm a I'm a recal. 450 00:28:26,559 --> 00:28:30,119 I'm gonna recall that's on right. Let's see America, Ali Maricle, 451 00:28:30,319 --> 00:28:34,519 All miracle sounds way better. Back from fan Fest if Facy fourteen, Margarita, 452 00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:38,240 though, baby, h hope you had fun. I'm jealous. Yeah, 453 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,039 I'm sure, I'm excited. It's something for me to look forward to 454 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,000 next year already. You we're gonna try to go to the fan Fest. 455 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,400 Vegas is always fun. I would love to go. I mean, they 456 00:28:48,519 --> 00:28:51,200 do it in different places. I might not even be in this country next 457 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:52,160 time, you know you kind of do want to go when they're going to 458 00:28:52,319 --> 00:28:56,000 announce the expansion. I guess sure. Probably the next time that there's a 459 00:28:56,079 --> 00:29:00,079 big one in the US, I will be able to go. That's my 460 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,759 hope. That's my hope. Very cool. Stefan Ries says, pick Ma 461 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:08,279 Naughty and grubbers Gate. Oh I like that, like the ant that's pretty 462 00:29:08,279 --> 00:29:14,160 good. GameCube one eighty says what's the best game? What's the best game 463 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,279 to play while getting over a breakup? Uh, Tony Hawks pro Skater two 464 00:29:18,319 --> 00:29:22,240 because that's soundtrack. It's just gonna make you feel better. Yeah, something 465 00:29:22,359 --> 00:29:25,920 very mechanical focus in the you know not. Yeah, don't play a game 466 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:32,680 with romance like that. Definite. Dan Park says, Oh no, I 467 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,119 wonder what it could have been a lot of things we did. Oh yeah, 468 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,160 just the show in general. Oh no. Bailey from this says, 469 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:42,279 Mike, could you prefer the wind Waker GameCube or HD? Guy, It's 470 00:29:42,279 --> 00:29:45,079 like you's been a while since I played the GameCube version. I think HD 471 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,559 just because the faster sale is pretty nice, Like I do like him. 472 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,839 I liked the ceiling I never had a problem with it, but going a 473 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,720 little bit faster, it's good. That's cool. Yeah, maybe somethday I'll 474 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:03,519 boot up the GameCube version again, even FUNcube now shut up, Baba as 475 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,079 Me says, impressed by Mike's ability to carry a whole show tune all by 476 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,160 himself, irrespective of the interests of anyone else to join in. Thanks for 477 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,359 he only cares about entertaining himself, like that is, that's what matters. 478 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,920 And yeah, so no no issue there. Ever, Washington set their first 479 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,680 Trooper super Chat. No message here, but thank you so much, Washington. 480 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,000 ANTONIONI says, if you had to put money on it, what is 481 00:30:26,039 --> 00:30:33,759 your bet on what Nintendo names the follow up to the switch money on it? 482 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:38,279 Um? So I think it probably does use the switch I IP that 483 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:42,720 switch name because like, let's just look at Nintendo's history. Uh, Nintendo 484 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:49,119 Entertainment System, Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Uh but uh it wasn't ending a 485 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:56,359 hit Gameboy Game Boy Color DS three Dsum we you they have a giant hit. 486 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:03,359 They carried over at least one more generation exactly, so switch to they 487 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:07,200 probably wouldn't do a number. But like, if I had to like put 488 00:31:07,319 --> 00:31:08,880 money on it, like Super Nintendo, Switch is probably not going to be 489 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,640 it, although I would love that. I think it's just gonna be Switched 490 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,440 Too. I know they normally wouldn't do a number, but I think they're 491 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,440 so afraid of getting too creative with WEU that they want to be as clear 492 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:26,319 as possible. That's why this is exactly my reason for if I had to 493 00:31:26,359 --> 00:31:30,000 take my own money and bet it on it, like that is the most 494 00:31:30,119 --> 00:31:33,000 logical thing I can think of, even thoughing Nintendo is it the most logical 495 00:31:33,039 --> 00:31:36,920 company, I couldn't help. That's what I would have to bet on. 496 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,079 So Switch Too is my bet, and that's not I'm not confident about that, 497 00:31:40,119 --> 00:31:42,920 but that's my bet. Oh Grog says. Did Mike ever play that 498 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,319 Disney Illusion Island game that just came out or is he dis He not playing 499 00:31:47,359 --> 00:31:49,640 Found Fantasy sixteen? Not yet, because I want to play it with my 500 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,920 brothers. I want to do like the local co op thing, so I'm 501 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,640 waiting until we have a chance to all really sit down. But a bunch 502 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,720 of it. He did play it at the Magic Kingdom, that's right. 503 00:31:59,079 --> 00:32:01,480 Yeah, well at disney Land Park, which is called a Magic Kingdom. 504 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:06,119 But not like proper now and like the Florida Magic Kata, no one cares. 505 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:12,160 Oh Jesus, christ Cody Clement said, welcome to the besties. I 506 00:32:12,319 --> 00:32:15,759 know what the best game is right now? All right, steps kind of 507 00:32:15,799 --> 00:32:17,759 the best game of the week. Hi, I'm Mike Manadi, and I 508 00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:21,160 know the best game. Tam got to be on the best He's once I 509 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,839 was jealous, but he probably actually knows those people. Chris knows us. 510 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:28,920 We can't invite you like a Kid and Christa and I'll just sit over there. 511 00:32:29,839 --> 00:32:31,799 Hey, I mentioned you on there? So did I tickled my fancy 512 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,680 very much? Steph Tendo says, oh yeah, I did want to. 513 00:32:36,839 --> 00:32:38,240 I did want to tease you a little bit for being on Kid and Christa, 514 00:32:38,359 --> 00:32:43,960 not once plugging your Nintendo podcast. But sure, I'm pretty stupid about 515 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:50,720 that. Felt good. Step Tendo says. Top six games that could be 516 00:32:50,839 --> 00:32:54,119 nominated for Game of the Year twenty twenty three, Okay, right now, 517 00:32:54,240 --> 00:33:00,759 the six games that I think will be the biggest contenders are Zetta, Street 518 00:33:00,799 --> 00:33:08,640 Fighter, Resident Evil Orders Gate. Already I think I'm gonna say that, 519 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:15,319 Um God, shut me out. I'm Diablo, like Diablo Final Fantasy I'm 520 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,640 kind of like, I'm how do you about a Dead Space remake? Probably 521 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,839 not too busy, too crowded. Okay, So for games that haven't come 522 00:33:21,839 --> 00:33:23,880 out yet, Allen Wick two, well, for games that how many come 523 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,160 out? The only one that I feel and I'm feeling like real probably is 524 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,279 Starfield. I hope Allen Wake two. I'm really excited for it, hope 525 00:33:30,319 --> 00:33:36,160 it delivers. But yeah, Starfield seems pretty lucky. I want, oh 526 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,119 pick maybe pick it four, maybe pick yeah, picking four for me for 527 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:42,079 sure. But it's always gonna be tough. Oh god, I am kind 528 00:33:42,119 --> 00:33:45,480 of I am kind of forgetting about High Fight, Rush about rush it Probably 529 00:33:45,599 --> 00:33:47,279 it probably makes that six cut for the games that have come out so far, 530 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,200 maybe yeah. If it's the games that come out so far, I 531 00:33:50,279 --> 00:33:52,440 think it makes the six cut. Uh yeah, absolutely, O god, 532 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,880 we still have Armed Acre Spider Man too. I think I think Spider Man 533 00:33:57,039 --> 00:34:00,240 two. I wonder if it's gonna get for as much stuff. I mean, 534 00:34:00,319 --> 00:34:04,839 I don't get nominated for the Game Awards game Oh yeah, yeah, 535 00:34:04,839 --> 00:34:08,280 it'll get nominated for that. But Insomniak is as the bridesmaid, never the 536 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:13,559 bride. They even even among PlayStation fan I was listening to kind of funny 537 00:34:13,559 --> 00:34:15,920 talk about this a bunch of big PlayStation fans over there, and they're just 538 00:34:16,039 --> 00:34:17,840 like, no, it's goods, you know, it doesn't have what it 539 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,360 takes to be game of the year. The insomniak like Spider Man games. 540 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,639 I'm like, what the like, I know what they're saying, because the 541 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,119 Spider Man didn't win Game of the Year. It was a great game, 542 00:34:27,559 --> 00:34:29,519 and it was like, no, no, God of War it's a game 543 00:34:29,559 --> 00:34:30,920 of the year. Spider Man's just and I think that was the same year, 544 00:34:31,039 --> 00:34:35,000 right, So um, it's it's weird, but I kind of get 545 00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:36,800 it. But for me, I like Spider Man way more than any of 546 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,119 those other Right, that's the thing, Like, you know, like I 547 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,559 liked God of War Ragnarok, but I feel like, you know, and 548 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,119 I guess it's about kind of flight specifically, but them and are people like 549 00:34:45,159 --> 00:34:47,199 were Google Gaga for that? But yes, like, well, Spider Man 550 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:52,360 is not quite there really or like even more crazy to be Ratchett and Clink. 551 00:34:52,679 --> 00:34:55,119 Rift Apart isn't there. I actually don't know exactly how they felt about 552 00:34:55,199 --> 00:35:00,440 Rift Apartment, but part generally that's how people feel and that this crazy to 553 00:35:00,599 --> 00:35:04,639 me. Ripped apart to me is so obviously like the best exclusive we had 554 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,760 to place it, except for maybe Astro. Maybe I just like three D 555 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:12,559 platforms. Actually, maybe that's just what it is. Ye uh okay. 556 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:19,639 Next one here is from Big Fresh Story seven says I demand public Crow eating 557 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:24,639 the Swiss of Metal show turned out amazing. I've heard people are surprised by 558 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,000 how good it is. I haven't. I don't know if I've heard amazing, 559 00:35:28,039 --> 00:35:29,880 but I haven't. You know me, I don't exactly have my ear 560 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,239 to the ground on team. I think it's amazing that it's this good, 561 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:37,400 that's for sure. He's absolutely right, They're They're absolutely right. I should 562 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,480 eat Crow. And this is why I just shouldn't talk about ship before. 563 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:45,079 It sound like, here's the reality. I talked so much shit about it. 564 00:35:45,159 --> 00:35:49,639 I feel obligated to watch it now and I don't care. I don't 565 00:35:49,679 --> 00:35:52,119 watch for I never cared if it was good or bad. I should have 566 00:35:52,159 --> 00:35:57,400 just shutted the fuck up, but I opened my mouth on a goddamn podcast 567 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:00,239 like this will be a fun thing to make fun, just a worry that's 568 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,480 good, And then here I am, and it's like everyone like brit it's 569 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:07,079 a colleague peacemaker. It's pretty good, am I a fuck me and everyone's 570 00:36:07,119 --> 00:36:13,480 defense? They picked the terrible clip to show at Summer Game Fest, Like 571 00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:15,599 that clip was terrible. Yeah, one chance say it previewed like a two 572 00:36:15,639 --> 00:36:17,679 out of seven. It came out it's like a seven out of ten. 573 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,519 That sounds about right to me. Here you go, I'm good for them, 574 00:36:21,599 --> 00:36:22,960 good for them. I hope this means good things for that franchise. 575 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:28,320 Willow David says, Mike, Sorry, the GameCube reddit was boomerie. I 576 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,000 just bought a game cube since my brother sold us back when we got a 577 00:36:30,039 --> 00:36:34,719 Wii. And it has the digital output. Oh, very very very nice. 578 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:38,119 That's what you want, Yeah, is mod console or um. So 579 00:36:38,519 --> 00:36:44,440 I think what he means is the at some point they stopped doing the including 580 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,039 the one output. Thane, I can't component cable or whatever it is, 581 00:36:47,119 --> 00:36:52,119 the component output like the newer models of it didn't have that. So you 582 00:36:52,159 --> 00:36:54,920 don't want those GameCubes, okay as much, but yeah, man, that 583 00:36:55,199 --> 00:37:00,519 that can't keep sub reddit. It's just it is. It's to say somebody 584 00:37:00,599 --> 00:37:05,639 who could played about being called boober. It is so boober. It's a 585 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,679 lot of people basically asking other people to google things. I guess it's worth 586 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:15,559 anything, you know, stuff like that. Oh that's good stuff. Ecto 587 00:37:15,679 --> 00:37:22,280 Cool says, what is the best Disney game ever? Mike, Okay, 588 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:31,239 so like not counting Kingdom Hearts. Uh, probably any duck Tailstvolution is very 589 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:35,719 good as those question cast solution. It's probably a better game than the Quackshot, 590 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,480 but my heart is more with Quackshots. A lot of Duc Duc tells 591 00:37:39,639 --> 00:37:43,880 is so much fun. Gosh, I love that duck Tails game. Incredible 592 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,480 soundtrack to um Atric quests. Good Chip Rescue Rangers also good. You know 593 00:37:47,599 --> 00:37:50,760 chests, got a lot of them. But get that. If you can 594 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,880 get that. It still bums me out that they never took that Disney After 595 00:37:53,960 --> 00:38:00,360 New collection to switch. It's on everything else. But ye, and that's 596 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:01,760 always fun. But uh yeah, yeah it should be a collection. That's 597 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:07,639 weird. John Drakes Roman, Yeah maybe maybe they just don't know. May 598 00:38:07,639 --> 00:38:09,079 if I bug John Drake about Yeah, that's what you need to do it, 599 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,960 you're just doing a service there.

Me and Mike are gonna put together a list with your 609 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,800 help. If you're a podcast producer again, if you want to drop a 610 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,719 super chat, you can have your say as well. Okay, we'll be 611 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:52,599 right back after this, and we're back. We are gonna do the top 612 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,639 games of nineteen ninety seven. We've done nineteen nineteen ninety six so far, 613 00:38:57,159 --> 00:39:01,119 um picking Corona, Trigger Yoshi's Island in Donkey Kong Country two for ninety five 614 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:05,760 and then ninety six. Obviously Super Mario sixty four and Wave Ray sixty four. 615 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:10,159 There were some other games. We're gonna do this again for nineteen ninety 616 00:39:10,199 --> 00:39:15,079 seven. MICUs is a pretty good year for games. Yeah, it's pretty 617 00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:17,320 good year. I think we all know ninety eight is the real way year. 618 00:39:17,679 --> 00:39:20,760 We don't know about nineteen ninety eight, and that's gonna be wacky, 619 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,719 but there's some fun stuff happening here. We are a bit further into this 620 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:30,039 new generation at the time with PlayStation Nintendo sixty four, so we got some 621 00:39:30,159 --> 00:39:34,239 stuff popping off, especially in PlayStation. I think PlayStation is really coming into 622 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,840 its own now. Yes, there were some good, good games on PlayStation 623 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,519 in sixty four. We're still having a handful of droughts throughout ninety seven. 624 00:39:40,559 --> 00:39:46,639 I remember there's some big games, there's some there are, but it's definitely 625 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,559 PlayStation coming into its own. Some great stuff happened on PC as well. 626 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:52,559 Where do you want to start for nineteen ninety seven, Mike, Yeah, 627 00:39:52,639 --> 00:39:58,599 I think kind of the big one for me is going to be Final Fantasy 628 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:04,400 seven. Yeah, kind of. Yeah. This is the one that that 629 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:09,519 felt like a big deal at the time. Honestly still the most mainstream turn 630 00:40:09,639 --> 00:40:15,000 based RPGs ever felt on my lifetime. Everybody was playing Found Fancy seven, 631 00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:19,840 it felt like because you know, it was at a point where I think 632 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,119 you were able to make something like a turn based RPG suddenly had be like 633 00:40:23,199 --> 00:40:29,519 the best looking game ever. I think Squaring extumbled upon some tricks with using 634 00:40:29,599 --> 00:40:32,920 full motion video and like putting police on the top of that to do things 635 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,920 that really weren't possible and a lot of our games or even in a lot 636 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,920 of other genres. Right, So there's just some really stunning stuff at the 637 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:43,760 time. And on top of that, you had a lot of really memorable 638 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,440 characters, a really neat setting. They went way more sci fi cyer punk, 639 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:52,320 especially in the beginning Midguards are really striking location just in general, a 640 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:58,360 lot of memorable characters, another incredible soundtrack too. There's just a mistake about 641 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,159 this game. It's like it was like huge zekegeist. Everybody was playing it. 642 00:41:02,119 --> 00:41:06,920 Yeah, it's uh right, a mystique and and just uh, the 643 00:41:07,039 --> 00:41:10,400 cultural zekegeist, the way it captured everything. Um I just in that marketing 644 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:19,039 campaign felt so inescapable and important and it was yeah, and you're right, 645 00:41:19,119 --> 00:41:22,559 it was like the time where I was like, oh, turn based RPGs 646 00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:25,920 from Japan are just a big, huge, important thing of gaming and always 647 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:30,239 will be is how I felt. And uh, and then it turned out 648 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,760 that wasn't true, but it definitely felt like it could have happened, you 649 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,679 know, had we been on like some slightly alternate history or something like that. 650 00:41:37,079 --> 00:41:39,320 Uh, Final Fantasy seven the peak of that and and yeah, it's 651 00:41:39,559 --> 00:41:43,079 I mean before this, they were like, you know, Squarres did things 652 00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:45,639 like or Square did things like We're just not gonna released on Fantasy five in 653 00:41:45,679 --> 00:41:50,280 the US. Who cares? Right after Fancy seven. That was never gonna 654 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,559 happen again, that's right. Yes, Uh, it's like it was so 655 00:41:54,679 --> 00:41:59,400 like just it penetrated cultures so much that's like, oh, you know what, 656 00:41:59,599 --> 00:42:01,400 we were just gonna call it seven and because you know that's what it's 657 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:06,079 called in Japan, and we're gonna unify the numbering scheme because used to six 658 00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:07,079 used to be three in America. And it's like, well, no, 659 00:42:07,599 --> 00:42:10,239 this is we don't care anymore. You need to know that this is a 660 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:14,519 long running franchise and this is a big deal, and we're going to teach 661 00:42:14,559 --> 00:42:16,119 you the right numbers because you just need to learn it, because that's how 662 00:42:16,159 --> 00:42:20,079 big a deal, big of a deal this is. So yeah, Final 663 00:42:20,119 --> 00:42:23,679 Fantasy seven on the list almost certainly. Yeah. I do want to say 664 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,760 that Tactics came out in Japan nenty seven, but not in the US to 665 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,880 ninety eight. We are doing US release dates, so gonna be tough for 666 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:36,679 tactics. Sorry, yeah, I want to add and I can't. I 667 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:40,559 think this is ninety seven in America Castlevania Symphony of the Night that is almost 668 00:42:40,639 --> 00:42:46,760 certainly ninety seven the US. Yes it is in whoo boy. Yeah that's 669 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:52,119 a very good game. Yes it is. It's um it's one of those 670 00:42:52,199 --> 00:42:54,360 it's like in the like that. First for a little bit, it was 671 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:58,480 like maybe a little undersung because some people are like two D. But it's 672 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,400 like that lasted for a month and then people were like, oh, actually 673 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:05,119 nope, this rules, this rules. We should ever I'll be talking about 674 00:43:05,159 --> 00:43:08,119 this. This is great and Castlevania simply a night Quickly you kind of took 675 00:43:08,159 --> 00:43:13,679 on like another awesome thing happening on PlayStation. Uh yeah I love this game. 676 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,280 Yeah, just really great looking two D art and again, fantastic music. 677 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:22,840 Again doing like a like sparing but smart use of polygons at time, 678 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,480 like the save room and things like that, so you know, it looks 679 00:43:24,519 --> 00:43:29,119 really cool. The kind of fun twist where you know, unlocking the good 680 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:32,559 ending isn't just a longer cut scene. It's like a whole like second half 681 00:43:32,599 --> 00:43:37,280 of the game that you get with the upside down castle Outlookard is a cool 682 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,760 character. Just yeah, adding you know, kind of looking at Castlevania too 683 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,840 again for inspiration, which like as a game that had problems and really smoothing 684 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:51,000 out those edges and turning that into an experience that just worked so well that 685 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:52,599 you know, you know, we had metroids before, we had other games 686 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,920 like that. This is really where metroid Vania comes from. This is the 687 00:43:57,039 --> 00:44:01,400 Vanya part of Metroidvania. Yep. Then it's like, uh, I mean, 688 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:05,400 I like Castalvania sympth of the Night right away. But it's like as 689 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,360 soon as you start like getting those RPG elements and you see your character growing, 690 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,880 you're right, that is sounds good, yep, And it's like that 691 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,679 defines gaming from that point forward, those RPG molements in every game. It's 692 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,920 like, oh, I if it can work in Castlevania, it can work 693 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,760 in anything. And that was right, And honestly most games don't even don't 694 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,599 even do it as well as Symphony of the Night did. Like it's still 695 00:44:24,639 --> 00:44:28,679 a stellar example of what those what those mechanics can be like in a game 696 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:37,400 like that, all right, I think next up I am going to I 697 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:42,199 think those are really good locks. Yeah, I want to bring this up, 698 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,760 and maybe let's talking about me. Why I don't want on it because 699 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,320 it's a very big game. Yeah, that's fine out this year. Yeah, 700 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:52,280 Goling and I double seven came out in nineteen ninety seven, which again, 701 00:44:52,559 --> 00:44:54,079 and I know I just said a crap about how FOP with SY seven 702 00:44:54,199 --> 00:45:00,440 was this big zeitgeist absolutely true for gold and I also it was a huge, 703 00:45:01,079 --> 00:45:05,320 huge deal. Yeah, and it's I mean, for me that year, 704 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,719 Golden I would have been my game of the year without even without question, 705 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,159 But it just hasn't aged well enough for me to feel good about putting 706 00:45:12,199 --> 00:45:15,400 on a top ten or top five. Now all these years later, I 707 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:19,920 don't really enjoy playing Golden Eye Double O seven anymore. And I think that 708 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,320 I should still enjoy playing the game, playing a game if we're going to 709 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:23,880 put it on this list. I think that's kind of a good rule to 710 00:45:24,079 --> 00:45:29,079 abide by. It's definitely an important, an important game, and it was. 711 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,159 Yeah, it was huge. It was so popular and it sold so 712 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,719 well, and it just like it was the thing that really drove the n 713 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,920 sixty four at least in the America's through nineteen ninety seven for sure. So 714 00:45:40,639 --> 00:45:45,480 yeah, an important game. I will add it up here. But let 715 00:45:45,519 --> 00:45:49,440 me let me give you the kind of in the town sixty four game from 716 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,599 this year that I actually do care about more, and that's star Fox sixty 717 00:45:52,679 --> 00:45:55,719 four. Sure, this was actually one of my favorite games for that console. 718 00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,960 I think it was basically just the remake of the original Star Fox, 719 00:46:00,559 --> 00:46:04,880 but that's a game that really benefited from the jump in hardware. They added 720 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,400 a lot of personality with the voice the characters. You know, usually the 721 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,639 talking head things is annoying, but it works really well in this game. 722 00:46:12,079 --> 00:46:15,599 The different paths you could take the rumble. Remember this is the rumble pad 723 00:46:15,679 --> 00:46:19,159 game, and now we still have our controls are still shaking like crazy to 724 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,840 this day, and that kind of started here. I have a lot, 725 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,679 I have a lot of funness for star Fox sixty four. Actually, yeah, 726 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:29,719 I mean I think this is the Star Fox game. So it's actually 727 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,400 even though its yep, and I feel good about that, uh making the 728 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,000 cut, I have it up there, let's let's keep there. Yeah, 729 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,000 I um, it's one that it's like easy to go back to and play 730 00:46:38,039 --> 00:46:42,000 and keep enjoying. And it was really really cool at the time for sure. 731 00:46:42,119 --> 00:46:45,480 And it uh, I think they'd showed like, okay, like they 732 00:46:45,519 --> 00:46:49,599 were they weren't faking the Polygons on the Superintendent with the super X two chip, 733 00:46:49,639 --> 00:46:52,000 but it's like they were barely scraping by with that frame, right. 734 00:46:52,039 --> 00:46:55,639 It's it was nice to get something a little bit better in every single way 735 00:46:57,039 --> 00:47:00,679 on the n sixty four and Star Fox sixty four. Is it's a classic, 736 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,920 it really is. Um, I uh, it's it's it's tough because 737 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,840 I mean, I'm trying to like, there's obviously some other ones. I 738 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,559 think I'll get to this one next probably, but um trying to think, 739 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:15,159 are there any other in sixty four games worth considering? I think Mario Kart 740 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,440 sixty's that there's one I was thinking about. But it is Mario Kart sixty 741 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,920 four this year, I mean, I can't remember. I'm like, I'm 742 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,679 trying to see Mario Kart sixty four was nineteen ninety seven in the US. 743 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,400 Look at that it was ninety six in Japan, So yeah, Mario Kart 744 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:32,039 sixty four would count. Um God again, gosh, I really am becoming 745 00:47:32,079 --> 00:47:36,880 the Town sixty four hater. I swear I'm not. Actually I don't. 746 00:47:37,199 --> 00:47:38,719 I don't. I don't harbor a lot of love for Mario Kart sixty four 747 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:43,920 anymore. Um, it was, it was fun at the time. I 748 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:49,519 think it quickly got equipped a quip who eclipsed, get equipped, got equipped, 749 00:47:49,679 --> 00:47:53,360 get equipped. It quickly got eclipsed by Double Dash, and then by 750 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:59,639 seven and yeah game and eight. Yeah, all of them are better, 751 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,119 I think for the most part. So yeah, I'll write it up there, 752 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:06,480 but I think it's gonna have a hard time making the cut. I 753 00:48:06,559 --> 00:48:08,199 do think Blastcore came out the year, and I like, that's what I 754 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,239 was gonna say, Like, that's like the other one I have a sauce 755 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:14,800 about for. I don't know if it's really quite substantial enough to make it 756 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,920 on here, but that's yeah, definitely maybe one of the most interesting games 757 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:22,320 of that year. Uh, one of the ones that felt the most original. 758 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:28,639 I'm definitely writing it up there for consideration, but it will Yes, 759 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,400 we'll see, we'll see. Maybe maybe maybe it's SUPs into five. Maybe 760 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:35,679 we'll see. All right, there is a really big Mikey game that came 761 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,519 out this year that I am going to probably insist upon sure, and that 762 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:45,639 is the curse of Monkey Island. Yes, I just thought this might happen. 763 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:50,239 There is such a short period of time that existed where we got games 764 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,320 like this, these point of click adventure games with just the hand drawn art 765 00:48:53,559 --> 00:48:57,719 right like and like looking like a cartoon. It's so pops up every now 766 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,719 and then. But basically there's a short period time where we could do this 767 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:04,000 because the CDs and then everybody was like, no, we're doing three D 768 00:49:04,119 --> 00:49:09,960 instead, And this brief little window we got this absolute treasure of fun and 769 00:49:10,079 --> 00:49:16,159 adventure and really neat puzzles and beautiful locations and the credible voice acting in music. 770 00:49:16,559 --> 00:49:20,760 This was God. This was a pretty early Aventure game. My first 771 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,880 one was Day of the Tentacle, and then right after that I played Chris 772 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:24,840 and Muckey Island, and after that I just kind of went hand with the 773 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:30,679 whole genre, especially all of the Lucas Arts stuff. Love Chris and Mucky 774 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:32,840 Out and I replayed it again just last year in the Build It to Return. 775 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,280 Still my favorite in the series. Love this game. Uh yes. 776 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,840 I as soon as I saw that came out in ninety seven, I was 777 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:44,079 like, well, that'll that'll be up there for sure. Um, I 778 00:49:45,119 --> 00:49:49,159 think we probably should put Quake two on this list. Quake two came out 779 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,840 nineteen ninety seven. Quake two is a very good game. I think it 780 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,519 improves on Quake one and just about every way. Although you know, Quick 781 00:49:55,559 --> 00:49:59,119 one may be more important, I guess, but Quake two is still very 782 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,280 very sport centering because it is also it is still very important. It is 783 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:05,760 it's god things. We're moving so fast at this point because just the next 784 00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:07,440 year you're going to get Half Life, which is a pretty big leap. 785 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:12,280 Not not necessarily in terms of the tech, although a bit, but just 786 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,599 in the presentation these games, it's quite two is still very much from what 787 00:50:15,679 --> 00:50:19,320 I remember, it's been a little bit in that doom style of wandering around, 788 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,840 finding keys, opening doors and that kind of thing, but it was 789 00:50:23,079 --> 00:50:27,320 it was certainly a big deal at the time. Might make the list or 790 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:34,119 some other ones. Maybe just also be considering here an important game. I 791 00:50:34,159 --> 00:50:35,880 don't know if either of us have a whole lot of love for it. 792 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,119 How we think it like ages now, but Ultima Online was in nineteen ninety 793 00:50:39,199 --> 00:50:44,920 seven. Yeah, it's important. I just don't know if I can argue 794 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:46,280 for it to be on the list. I never played it and never had 795 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:50,280 much interest in it. Yeah, at the time, it was neat. 796 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,960 There's a it's it is a lot, right, and I think you know 797 00:50:54,039 --> 00:50:59,599 they're starting with ultimon line. We slowly and slowly kind of found a balance 798 00:50:59,639 --> 00:51:02,119 of making this stuff more accessible until we got toward a whircraft which should a 799 00:51:02,159 --> 00:51:07,000 trick. Ever quest a big step in that direction as well, for sure. 800 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,880 You know, there's two Mega Man games that came out this year. 801 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,920 Mega Man eight, which I liked a lot of time and still like, 802 00:51:15,039 --> 00:51:17,039 but not one of the better Mega Mans, but then Mega Man X four 803 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:22,480 Mega Man X four, which absolutely is one of the better Megan Man games, 804 00:51:22,599 --> 00:51:25,639 probably got definitely the best. The only other game in the X series 805 00:51:25,679 --> 00:51:30,079 that I really love, aside from the original is X four is the first 806 00:51:30,119 --> 00:51:35,079 one where you have the two separate campaigns for Mega Man X and for zero. 807 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,679 It has once again kind of has the so bad it's good voice acting, 808 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:42,679 really cool uh enemies. Yeah. X four is kind of where the 809 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,960 series peaked, and then they made like four more anyways, and none of 810 00:51:45,039 --> 00:51:51,679 them were ever remotely as good as this. Again, I like Rock the 811 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,280 Dinosaur Hunter. I'm not gonna put it up considered probably not good enough. 812 00:51:54,559 --> 00:51:59,519 It's fun, but it's not good enough. The game that I probably would 813 00:51:59,559 --> 00:52:05,199 put up is Grand Turismo one. Uh. I like that game, but 814 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,320 it's another one where it's like, I just, um, I don't hold 815 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:12,360 a torch for it these days. No, probably not. I think even 816 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:15,880 Grand Turisma two is you know that's what happened at some point. That's even 817 00:52:15,079 --> 00:52:19,000 that's even better. Definitely. Yes, Yeah, they're important game. There's 818 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,400 a lot of important games in this year, that's for sure, but we 819 00:52:21,519 --> 00:52:24,280 gotta have the luxury picking the ones we lot oh want a bit more. 820 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:30,039 You pretty much spat in my face when I suggested crash Bandicoot won the last 821 00:52:30,079 --> 00:52:34,239 time I have any better like Crash Bandicoot two. Cortex strikes back this time. 822 00:52:35,079 --> 00:52:37,400 I mean I've played one in three a bunch because I was like trying 823 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:42,239 to like figure out it's pretty similar to this. Yeah, listen, I 824 00:52:42,599 --> 00:52:45,119 do. I really do not think they're very good games. I think Crash 825 00:52:45,159 --> 00:52:47,880 Bandicoot is a cool character. Uh, and they're fine for what they are. 826 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:52,639 It's just what they are is not in any way impressive. I just 827 00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:55,000 play them and I have no fun. I'm sorry. Yeah, I mean, 828 00:52:55,039 --> 00:52:58,800 look, what can I do? What can you do? If you? 829 00:52:59,639 --> 00:53:01,320 I mean, I don't think it's gonna make this list. They're strongly 830 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:05,599 about other games. I feel like it could get up. Yes, totally. 831 00:53:05,639 --> 00:53:07,320 It's not said that about Mucky Island that I would be mad and like, 832 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,320 you know, throw a fit. But you know, I like, 833 00:53:09,679 --> 00:53:13,519 I like Crash too a lot. I think you're wrong, Am I fair 834 00:53:13,599 --> 00:53:17,280 enough? Whatever? I literally after the last sixth episode or whenever we talked 835 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:21,360 with that, I went and played Crash since then, and I'm just like, 836 00:53:22,039 --> 00:53:24,199 yeah, don't still don't get it? Still just eight fill at it. 837 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:28,559 That's yeah. I'm like, this is just real boring. Um. 838 00:53:29,039 --> 00:53:30,960 But okay, I mean, if you want to put it up there, 839 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:35,119 it's fine. It's like some other games that like, it's interesting, but 840 00:53:35,199 --> 00:53:38,440 they just kind of have way more important sequels, like Diablo Diablo one is 841 00:53:38,519 --> 00:53:43,039 at this point, you have Jedi Knights, but you know we did Dark 842 00:53:43,119 --> 00:53:45,519 Forces already. You know, I like better, and I like Dark Force 843 00:53:45,639 --> 00:53:50,119 better, and I like Jedi Outcast better. Jedi Knights just kind of in 844 00:53:50,559 --> 00:53:53,159 the middle there. For me. Age of Vampires, Age of vatpis one's 845 00:53:53,199 --> 00:53:59,400 good. I like two more than I like one. You're probably a good 846 00:53:59,639 --> 00:54:04,719 bit Worms two. I liked Worms two, Worms two, guys I like 847 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,000 worms. Uh yeah, I guess worms worse two. It was Worms two, 848 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,719 the one I played. I don't know, Worst two, I bet 849 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:12,480 is the one you played. A lot of people I think Worms, Worms 850 00:54:12,559 --> 00:54:15,840 two or that love Worms Armageddon. Yeah, we're definitely playing Worms Armageddon. 851 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:19,079 But I played something before that as well. I always like, oh, 852 00:54:19,119 --> 00:54:21,199 I love this idea, and so when I finally got a chance to play, 853 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,000 I played a ton of it. I love Worms, but I don't 854 00:54:23,039 --> 00:54:24,800 know. It feels weird to put it up there. I don't know, 855 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,880 that's a little weird. That's a little bit weird. You were you ever 856 00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,679 an odd World Abes Odyssey guy? Yeah, I like, I'm fine. 857 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:36,800 I don't have any deep reverence for those for that franchise, Like when I 858 00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:39,320 play the games, I'm enjoying it. Stretch back then it stood out more 859 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:44,880 because they did look very good, right, They had the cool cut scenes. 860 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:47,760 The graphics themselves are good because I think a lot of pre hundred backgrounds. 861 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:52,119 It was a big pre rendered backgrounds fan. Oh we better bring this 862 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,519 up before Shaw knows as we don't and yells at us, oh, never 863 00:54:54,599 --> 00:54:59,760 mind. Mega Man Legends nineteen ninety seven in Japane okay, in the U. 864 00:55:00,119 --> 00:55:01,679 We're safe for now. That is a good game, though. I 865 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:06,039 think the biggest game that we're not mentioning and probably won't be able to mention 866 00:55:06,119 --> 00:55:08,000 because I've never played I don't know if you have, is the Original Fallout. 867 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:12,239 I played a good bit of the Original Fallout. Actually I didn't be 868 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,880 it. I did not beat it. I played a good bit of it, 869 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:17,760 and I did like it, and I bet at the time it was 870 00:55:19,119 --> 00:55:22,119 really impressively. I felt like a big deal. I get that. I 871 00:55:22,159 --> 00:55:27,920 don't. I don't know if I'm excited enough about that one. I want 872 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,679 to say so like Tech and three is a little weird because it came out 873 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:35,440 in the arcades only Japan ninety seven. It never had a US release until 874 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,679 it came to the PlayStation in ninety eight here, so that's more of a 875 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:44,320 ninety eight game. So yeah, mad about Tech and three. I mentioned 876 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,400 Diabbo one and said Diabbo two is really where I care more. Anyways, 877 00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:50,639 you know, again, probably not gonna make it. I like Barman at 878 00:55:50,679 --> 00:55:52,360 sixty four a lot. That's actually another one of my probably favorite in TEL 879 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:57,920 sixty four games. That's pretty good stuff. Um but yeah, just looking 880 00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,960 there's like interesting like two rater two. No, not anymore w c W 881 00:56:01,159 --> 00:56:07,159 versus nWo World Tourists. This this is the first u acky one, right, 882 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:09,440 it's every one of the earlier acky ones. I think it's probably the 883 00:56:09,519 --> 00:56:13,800 first one. Yeah yeah, yeah, because you had revenge after this, 884 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:19,119 and then um and then yeah yes raw No Mercy and then two thousand that's 885 00:56:19,159 --> 00:56:23,039 right, are the four WWW ones anyways? Yes? Um yeah, I 886 00:56:23,119 --> 00:56:28,559 mean those That game is actually still very good. It's just they got way 887 00:56:28,679 --> 00:56:32,440 better as they kept to making those kinds of games. And yeah No Mercy. 888 00:56:32,519 --> 00:56:36,599 I think it is probably considered the best for reasons because it's got all 889 00:56:36,639 --> 00:56:39,639 that good fun wrestling action with the most content on top of it. So 890 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:43,760 we don't I don't think we need to include WCW. Yeah do you want 891 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,639 to? Should we go to the community now see if they have some more 892 00:56:46,639 --> 00:56:50,360 suggestions for us. I've been reading your suggestions and chat everybody. Thank you. 893 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,400 Yeah maybe a second, let me get that up. I'm meant to 894 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,800 do that as well. But it's still just take a second here. You're 895 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,679 all good stuff. By the way, if you wanted to link, yeah, 896 00:56:59,679 --> 00:57:04,800 I think I will go there a new punk okays stuff? Is it 897 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,679 in podcast stuff there? I have it open if you want me to hope, 898 00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:09,400 I got it right now, and I am fading back in there with 899 00:57:10,119 --> 00:57:14,840 let's see here. We're gonna just hit the highlights. Granches mcbasketball says Crash 900 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:16,679 Bandicoot two. I'm probably the only one who's going to vote for this one, 901 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:20,440 but it's the one I go back to most often. I'm with you, 902 00:57:20,559 --> 00:57:24,119 cran Jess, We're not alone. I'll get Crash Bandicoot to a chance. 903 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:31,119 I bet it's just like one in three is bench j C Final Fantasy 904 00:57:31,199 --> 00:57:36,119 seven Pickman Wolf says for the Love of God put Symphony of the Night one 905 00:57:36,119 --> 00:57:38,199 of the most important games of all time to help define an entire genre. 906 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:43,079 It just it defines all the gaming at this point. I think Nick Turbo 907 00:57:43,159 --> 00:57:46,280 says Quake two a game so good it's getting a remaster next week. Allegedly. 908 00:57:46,519 --> 00:57:50,760 Yes, we talked about that. It's actor Ryance is waxing poetic about 909 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:55,239 Mario Kart sixty four. Here, I mean I like miss I mean marcosts 910 00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:59,920 is fours fun because until sixty four had the four players support and that was 911 00:58:00,199 --> 00:58:01,360 great. Yes, it was a lot of fun. Yeah, I mean 912 00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:05,639 that was for me at that time. That was why I was at the 913 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,320 n sixty four kid because I would have friends over almost every weekend. It 914 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:13,559 was middle school time and maybe a little little a little bit of high school 915 00:58:13,559 --> 00:58:15,039 time, and people would be over all the time. We would just play 916 00:58:15,079 --> 00:58:21,239 in sixty four games NonStop. Um I yeah, mister Buller says star Fox 917 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:25,199 sixty four. People are still chasing that high honorable mention to Diddy Kong Racing, 918 00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:30,320 which I saw that that came out as well. That is so bizarre 919 00:58:30,559 --> 00:58:32,440 for me to think back that Mario Kart sixty four and Diddy Kong Racing came 920 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:36,320 out. You think they'd be like, well, let's let's not do both 921 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,960 of these literally this year. Right in my in my mind, there's a 922 00:58:40,079 --> 00:58:45,639 huge gap between those games. Well because they seem technically like like Diddy Kong 923 00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:47,920 seems like there's a lot more going on because the characters are actually all three 924 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:51,480 D models. Oh yeah, it's not just much and stuff. Yes, 925 00:58:51,559 --> 00:58:53,239 you could fly and stuff, but no, that's just the same year, 926 00:58:53,599 --> 00:58:57,800 yep. And it's like it probably was like maybe Mario Kart came out earlier 927 00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,079 in the year, and then Dinny Kong Racing came on holidays or something, 928 00:59:00,119 --> 00:59:01,719 and so it's like that for me, it was like the end of one 929 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,039 school year in the beginning of another school year. So it just felt like 930 00:59:05,159 --> 00:59:07,320 this huge gap back then. These days it's like I don't know, I 931 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,559 blink and that much time goes by. Um, all right, let's see 932 00:59:10,599 --> 00:59:15,159 Breadfish has a list here, Sympathy a night Fall, Final Fantasy seven, 933 00:59:15,199 --> 00:59:19,800 fall Out, Golden Eye Double O seven, Age Vampires Done Deal. Villain 934 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:22,760 Max says Golden Eye art. I know Mike doesn't agree with, but it's 935 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:27,199 Golden Eye Double O seven. Um. It's the game that introduced shooters to 936 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:30,599 many like myself on a console that has not mid and is superior to the 937 00:59:30,679 --> 00:59:37,039 Dreamcast Sasquatching Sasquatch Crossing says Fallout, Beef Hammers says Final Fantasy seven or Mario 938 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:42,400 Card sixty four will result in Any slander against these will result in them rioting. 939 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,719 I think we we'll get a little bit of a riot a going. 940 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:51,239 I think um n Lenny cool. Diick Denver mentions tech in three. Yeah, 941 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:52,800 I mean I said it like Camerol Japan the Arcades. It might have 942 00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:54,960 even been out here in the Arcades in ninety seven. I don't know. 943 00:59:55,079 --> 01:00:00,320 It's a little weird. Always be Clothing says I'm gonna going to pander today's 944 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:06,440 co host Mike and sake the Curse of Monkey Island. Like it? Uh. 945 01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:09,920 Cyberjack says, obviously it's final Fantasy seven. Tifa Lockhart is still the 946 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:14,400 hottest fictional character and it's not even close. Thank you, Cyberjack. Hey, 947 01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:16,280 hey, Brian Rios, thank you for joining the Lincoln Tier. Appreciate 948 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:21,599 yes, shout outs. Um probably will probably still we'll look for some of 949 01:00:21,599 --> 01:00:25,239 the highlights. Now, match's fallout. Yeah, I was just gonna say 950 01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:30,000 fall Yeah, Matt Clin fall miss via a Tetrisphere. How about that? 951 01:00:30,519 --> 01:00:34,239 I played Tetrisphere. I always get that in What Trick Smith? Yes up, 952 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,599 who doesn't? Right, we're all having that problem with Jeff exactly. 953 01:00:37,679 --> 01:00:42,360 I saving that problem every day. Tetrisphere. I do remember being a little 954 01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:45,800 bit a little bit better than What Tricks? Uh. Yeah, Terry Hockey 955 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:50,199 Blue says star Fox sixty four. Curse of Monkeyland gets mentioned. Jad Camp 956 01:00:50,239 --> 01:00:52,639 has a good point down here Sonic are the game sucks, but can you 957 01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:58,639 feel this? Yeah, maybe that soundtrack gets up there alone. The game 958 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,639 suck. No, people say it sucks, it doesn't. I mean, 959 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:05,000 you know, I also played it at the height of my Sega fan blindness, 960 01:01:05,119 --> 01:01:07,880 so maybe I'm not the person to ask. Buggy Dillo has got some 961 01:01:08,519 --> 01:01:12,800 like for the arcade, don't I'm Pacchi Vampire Savior, the Lord of the 962 01:01:13,519 --> 01:01:16,360 Is Vampire Sayers here good thinks Sean's not here? Ye. NFL Blitz Battle 963 01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:21,039 Circuit on PC. It's dungeon Keeper series I never played. I know people 964 01:01:21,079 --> 01:01:22,639 really like bengeon Yeah, and my brother played a bit dudget Keeper. I 965 01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,840 never really got it. It's I think that jet Keeper is kind of like 966 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:31,119 uh freaking um Viviva Pinata. Maybe I'm making that up, but I remember 967 01:01:31,199 --> 01:01:34,800 they're being similar. I thought it was like a trap game where it's like 968 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:37,000 you keep put down traps and then people come towards you and like you like 969 01:01:37,079 --> 01:01:39,280 they fall into your traps or something like. Yeah, but I think you 970 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:45,400 like do with the trap specific creatures that might get him so you can make 971 01:01:45,039 --> 01:01:50,880 spawn new creatures completely because like I think it's like, it's definitely also a 972 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,239 bit of a tower defense. I don't even know what those first. Maybe 973 01:01:52,239 --> 01:01:54,760 I'm just completely wrong. Maybe I need to look at what the hell dudget 974 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:59,199 Keeper was. Like I said, I've never played it a ribbon backyard baseball 975 01:01:59,239 --> 01:02:04,840 spot what I mean the sequel to miss That's right, Spy Fox in Dry 976 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,920 Cereal.

Um, jad Camp, you mentioned sonic Are Crash Bandicoot two 982 01:02:30,239 --> 01:02:35,480 from Clink, Kirby's Dreamland three from DMC depressed me crying, and the criminally 983 01:02:35,519 --> 01:02:39,599 under appreciated Clinoa Door to the Phantom Mile. Yeah, Clonoa's a cool game. 984 01:02:39,679 --> 01:02:43,119 I don't know if it really play makes it? Dream and three? 985 01:02:43,239 --> 01:02:46,440 Is it nearly as good as Kirby Superstar? So? Uh, Screaming Man 986 01:02:46,599 --> 01:02:50,840 says I want to give a Intelligent Cube a shout out since it's one of 987 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,920 my favorite puzzle games in dat ost rules, but it doesn't have a prayer 988 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:58,039 here though. What does have a prayer for game mess Game in the Year 989 01:02:58,039 --> 01:03:02,760 in nineteen ninety seven is Madden NFL ninety eight. I like those games. 990 01:03:04,159 --> 01:03:07,679 NFL Game Day ninety eight. I would consider Actually Game Day was good for 991 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,440 like two years back then around this time. Yeah, I think I saw 992 01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:14,800 some people in chat asking about Tie Fighter versus x Wing, and we brought 993 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:17,199 this up when it was x Wing. Definitely just somehow missed that series completely. 994 01:03:17,639 --> 01:03:22,360 It is one where I'm like, it's time to go play those games. 995 01:03:22,519 --> 01:03:24,760 Yes, by the X May fourth, I will play those games, 996 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,800 but I kind of want to do it sooner than that. I just who 997 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,880 the fuck has the time Balder's Game three is out, We're going to be 998 01:03:30,159 --> 01:03:35,360 hopefully get review codes of one Day for Starfield, and then my life's over 999 01:03:35,519 --> 01:03:38,800 because of those two games. Um okay, yes, so Mike, let's 1000 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:43,920 recap Game of the Year nineteen ninety seven, the games that we both several 1001 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:46,320 locks, Final Fantasy seven, Castlevania, Symphony in the Night. I think 1002 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:52,679 we just move Curse of Monkey Island up immediately, because yeah, I think 1003 01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:54,639 that goes goes without all the way. Number three let's go. Yeah, 1004 01:03:54,679 --> 01:04:00,239 I'm fine. I'm fine with that almost. I um yeah, okay, 1005 01:04:00,239 --> 01:04:01,840 So what we have left is Golden Eye, Star Fox, Mario Kart, 1006 01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:05,360 Blast Core, Quake two, Ultimate Online, Mega Man X four, Grand 1007 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,960 Trismo. I know some of these we've already kind of scratched, but whatever. 1008 01:04:10,599 --> 01:04:15,360 Um, picking from those, I probably actually do move star Fox up. 1009 01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,559 Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. Actually, that's probably the 1010 01:04:18,679 --> 01:04:21,320 one of all these in so sixty four games, that's the one of those 1011 01:04:21,559 --> 01:04:25,519 I like the most. Then it's the one most the most likely to play. 1012 01:04:25,719 --> 01:04:29,360 Now. Yeah, and I love I love blast Core, but it's 1013 01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:32,760 a very particular game, like it's a very it's very specific. Yeah, 1014 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:36,519 it's very specific, and you kind of have to forgive a lot when you're 1015 01:04:36,559 --> 01:04:40,639 playing it because it's so awkward in a lot of ways. But it's awkward 1016 01:04:40,679 --> 01:04:44,920 in a fun way. But it's just not top five material. It's it's 1017 01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:48,199 not um oh, someone you're chest saying, Papa Rapper. I like Propa 1018 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:51,840 fine. I was never a PaRappa guy, So I was I was wondering 1019 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:54,920 if you're going to bring that up or not how much. It's all in 1020 01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:59,159 the mind. I like it. I get it, Unjammer lammy stand myself 1021 01:04:59,519 --> 01:05:03,880 really is really I prep with the Rapper two. I just never played one. 1022 01:05:04,199 --> 01:05:08,159 No, that's a joke. You can probably guess what my next favorite 1023 01:05:08,199 --> 01:05:11,960 game is in this list. Yeah, And to be honest, Mike, 1024 01:05:12,039 --> 01:05:15,079 I just don't. I don't feel super strong about anything else. So if 1025 01:05:15,119 --> 01:05:16,719 you wanted to move Mega matt X four up, I am fine with that 1026 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:20,840 because I just I love Golden Eye Deumo seventh at the time. I don't 1027 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:24,880 want it in the top five now, it's I know that's it's just how 1028 01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:29,719 I feel. Um and then Mario Kart kind of the same. There is 1029 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,920 a part of me because there's a lot sizes are in blast Core. There's 1030 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:36,559 a lot of important games here. Yeah, Quake two great rismolts to my 1031 01:05:36,679 --> 01:05:41,360 line. Boy, would I rather played Meg Next Floor over any of these? 1032 01:05:42,079 --> 01:05:45,719 Right? I mean I think the maybe, I don't know, Quake 1033 01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:48,480 two feels like it maybe could go up there. But I'll make you want 1034 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:51,800 to put Mega Matics four up. Yeah. Well, Beefammer says this, 1035 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:55,000 this is gonna get a lot hafe do Mega but no, like, I 1036 01:05:55,079 --> 01:05:58,400 don't know. Maybe I'm in a bubble amongst the Mega Man fans that everyone 1037 01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:03,920 does agree X four is one of the better ones. Uh. It's interesting 1038 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:08,000 we have two two D place games at a time when it was so much 1039 01:06:08,079 --> 01:06:15,679 more about three D obviously becoming a thing. Um there's there's a part of 1040 01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,239 me that's thinking we do Quake two instead of Mega Man x four, But 1041 01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:24,760 I don't know how much fun we did Quake already. Quake was on the 1042 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:30,159 last list. Yes, we put it above Wave Race even so we gave 1043 01:06:30,199 --> 01:06:34,000 it, gave it its due. Listen, Quake two going up there at 1044 01:06:34,039 --> 01:06:39,880 number five. Megamaticx four makes perfect sense to me. But uh, Mega 1045 01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:42,840 manticx four. I've heard that. I know, I've seen the fans say 1046 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,920 that about Megamatics four being big, like really really like one am I fighting 1047 01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:49,960 far? Okay, well I wouldn't go that far, but uh, listen, 1048 01:06:50,239 --> 01:06:54,119 if the list is Final Fantasy seven, Cassivania, Sympthy Like, Curse 1049 01:06:54,159 --> 01:06:56,920 of Monkey Island, Star Fox sixty four, Mega Man x four, I 1050 01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:00,039 think that's interesting and good and we'll get hate because we're leaving off Golden Eye 1051 01:07:00,079 --> 01:07:03,000 Mario Kart, but we're not putting those on the list. Yeah, they 1052 01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,159 could deal with it. Let's go with it. I likes you actually seeing 1053 01:07:05,199 --> 01:07:09,719 some support and chat now, thank you everybody. Okay, yeah, you 1054 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:12,679 know, I got a couple of Mikey games on here. I think the 1055 01:07:12,719 --> 01:07:15,559 most important thing. Honestly, it is probably like from Busy seven, got 1056 01:07:15,639 --> 01:07:18,039 simply a Knight Wanted two That is such a super luck to me. Yes, 1057 01:07:18,119 --> 01:07:23,320 and there's so there's almost no doubt and it's like, um, if 1058 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:26,880 you know again at the time, Golden Eye double seven would have one hundred 1059 01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:29,559 percent be up there for me. But it's just and that's what I was 1060 01:07:29,599 --> 01:07:32,360 playing during that entire year. It was almost nothing about Golden Night and then 1061 01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:36,159 Samario Kart and and and so, like I missed out on a lot of 1062 01:07:36,199 --> 01:07:39,360 these other games at the time. I went back to him like the next 1063 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,559 year. But uh so, yeah, nineteen ninety seven was kind of one 1064 01:07:42,559 --> 01:07:44,880 of those ones like, oh, I'm kind of everything got lost in the 1065 01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:47,000 black hole that was Golden Eye in that time. So I'm fine with this 1066 01:07:47,119 --> 01:07:51,039 list. Uh there was that's interesting. I would I almost wonder if I 1067 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:55,000 fall out instead of being Max four. Nah, now we're not doing we're 1068 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:58,880 doing mag manx four. Following Well, let's do this, all right, 1069 01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:01,519 I put the thing there are let me uh post us to Twitter. Have 1070 01:08:01,639 --> 01:08:09,280 people yell at us while we're finishing up the ship next. Oh, back 1071 01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:16,680 like nineteen seventy nine people, at least for the audio listener. One more 1072 01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:21,079 time. Let's start from five, this time Megabend x four, then star 1073 01:08:21,159 --> 01:08:24,880 Fox sixty four. Moving up the list, you got the Curse of Monkey 1074 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,680 Island at number two. It's Castlevania Sympathy of the Night number one, Final 1075 01:08:28,760 --> 01:08:32,279 Fantasy seven. I personally would put Castlevania above Final Fantasy seven, but it's 1076 01:08:32,319 --> 01:08:35,760 not so strong in that direction that I feel like I'm gonna argue for it. 1077 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:40,399 So this is this is This works for me. Okay, I posted 1078 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,359 that to Twitter. Feel free to just go at me and yell at me 1079 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,520 about that if you want, and specifically Mike, Yes, Mike, what 1080 01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:49,399 have you been playing? I've been playing. I gotta go to bast Why 1081 01:08:49,399 --> 01:08:51,000 don't we take a quick break? But yeah, I was gonna say we 1082 01:08:51,039 --> 01:08:54,479 should take a break because Christian needs to put these ads in. Anyhow, 1083 01:08:54,479 --> 01:09:02,680 We'll be right back, everybody, and we're back once again, Do we 1084 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,880 get any more super chats? Yeah? I think we did get a couple 1085 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:10,119 more of those. Actually, one more of those, specifically from Dean boeing 1086 01:09:10,199 --> 01:09:15,399 sis, it's gubble, it's something censored on my end. Oh, it's 1087 01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:21,079 guble bitches. Fe deanaid, thank you, thanks Dan shout out, it's 1088 01:09:21,119 --> 01:09:29,239 couple bitches. Apparently that's good. Thank you. Okay, Mike, what 1089 01:09:29,359 --> 01:09:32,479 have you been playing? Yeah? I mean it's like, especially when we 1090 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:36,000 started the show right after finishing boters Gate three, then I started thinking about 1091 01:09:36,039 --> 01:09:40,319 how much I've also been enjoying Pick before I talked about both of those, 1092 01:09:40,359 --> 01:09:43,840 but I was like literally buzzing. I'm just so excited to be playing so 1093 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:47,199 many good games right now. It's just ridiculing, especially these are two games. 1094 01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:50,000 There are so many games I knew I was looking forward to this year 1095 01:09:50,319 --> 01:09:54,800 for real, all right, like my dia Bol Street Futters Final fantasies that 1096 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:58,199 it is, right, But like, these are two games. I no, 1097 01:09:58,399 --> 01:10:00,960 I wouldn't have like taken them in like my draft picks, you know 1098 01:10:00,239 --> 01:10:03,199 that kind of thing. And they're both great, They're both like really fun. 1099 01:10:03,279 --> 01:10:06,199 I want to play both of these all the way through now so let's 1100 01:10:06,199 --> 01:10:10,920 just just kind of like realizing that, like, gosh, these are good 1101 01:10:11,279 --> 01:10:15,000 games and they're really interesting and what's Oh, I'm just really excited. Yep, 1102 01:10:15,239 --> 01:10:18,479 it's uh, you're right, it's everything is hitting, Just everything is 1103 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,960 hitting. And I think, I mean a big part of it, I 1104 01:10:23,039 --> 01:10:28,720 think is that developers publishers have realized if they do put the extra effort into 1105 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:32,520 the game, it does pay off. It does turn into actual substantial sales 1106 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:38,680 and greases and excitement about the franchise. And I think both both of these 1107 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:43,159 games are examples of that. I think Pickman four isum is getting that shine 1108 01:10:43,199 --> 01:10:45,640 in Japan for sure. I think it's it might be due to get a 1109 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,920 little bit of it here in Europe and in the West in general, but 1110 01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:54,319 it's definitely getting in Japan. And Balder's Gate three obviously just crushing it worldwide, 1111 01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:59,720 huge success, And so like people, these publishers realized it's worth putting 1112 01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:02,119 things, putting things off as long as you can the extra cost of development 1113 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:06,439 to get things right is worth it. And boy, that's a pretty cool 1114 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:11,640 place to be at in terms of someone buying and playing these games, where 1115 01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:15,920 it's like, oh, they really do recognize that if if, if they 1116 01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:17,159 put in that effort, we'll, first of all, we're going to appreciate 1117 01:11:17,239 --> 01:11:19,760 it and we're going to be more excited to spend money on it. So 1118 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:25,399 Jana Choa and chat who says, I blame you for me enjoying these little 1119 01:11:25,479 --> 01:11:30,159 freaks grub Oh hell yeah, you playing too? Janod he was like, 1120 01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:31,680 he was like, so like the demos like good good to check out? 1121 01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:35,560 Like, yeah, jan please go play the demo please, I think you 1122 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:41,359 might like it. Yes, he says, I hate I'm bringing it Anakin 1123 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:45,840 Skywalker Nowger I hate you. Hey, jan Man, hope you're doing good. 1124 01:11:46,159 --> 01:11:55,880 Uh I thank you, thank you, Christian, thank you. Yeah. 1125 01:11:56,199 --> 01:12:00,039 Pickment for is is just it's fantastic. It is so well designed. 1126 01:12:00,199 --> 01:12:03,399 I've said it every week now for a couple of weeks, but I'm gonna 1127 01:12:03,439 --> 01:12:08,479 keep saying it because it does actually keep getting better because they keep introducing new 1128 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:13,079 stuff, and the new stuff is super additive in terms of keeping the loop 1129 01:12:13,159 --> 01:12:16,600 fresh. He's did my first night excursion, Yes, exactly, that was 1130 01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:19,319 fun. Right, They're not too long, They're always the way shorter than 1131 01:12:19,319 --> 01:12:24,079 you're expecting, and yet like they ramp up in terms of stress and intensity 1132 01:12:24,159 --> 01:12:27,000 in a way that though normal game does not. So it's like this different 1133 01:12:27,079 --> 01:12:30,319 feeling for a little bit of time, and it has the separate reward system 1134 01:12:30,399 --> 01:12:33,680 that gets you this different thing, and it's it's just all so good and 1135 01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:38,079 all to each other. So well we need next time we're in person, 1136 01:12:38,159 --> 01:12:42,960 we have to have a dan Dory battle with steaks of some kind. Sure. 1137 01:12:43,079 --> 01:12:47,239 I love that I figured something out. I m r dude. I 1138 01:12:47,279 --> 01:12:53,199 still wish the dog hat and nose. Oh yeah, totally. I submitted 1139 01:12:53,239 --> 01:12:58,760 some jokes for the next me too. We'll see. It's fun here exactly 1140 01:13:00,279 --> 01:13:01,960 with some stakes on it. This one too. Uh. And I definitely 1141 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:06,399 just ripped the dog. It's like the first a dog designed entirely by cat 1142 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:09,560 people, Like, seriously, we hate dogs. Look what we did to 1143 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:15,079 this fucker. Um. Yeah, a nose and front legs just make it 1144 01:13:15,199 --> 01:13:18,600 actually a dog if you're gonna make a dog. Um. But overall, 1145 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,199 like everything that they're doing for this game, it, like I said, 1146 01:13:21,279 --> 01:13:25,800 just feeds into one another and it keeps you wanting to play once you and 1147 01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:29,399 it's like one more day is so easy to do. And I love those 1148 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,720 kinds of games. SIV has always been that for me, Um, if 1149 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:35,840 you give me a little session of gameplay, this like a nice little nugget 1150 01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:39,640 of like I can see what I can accomplish, and all those things are 1151 01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:42,960 fun to do and feel rewarding and feel like I'm working towards a bigger goal. 1152 01:13:43,239 --> 01:13:45,479 I'm like, yeah, I'll do that for those Dan Dory battles I 1153 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:49,079 did, um U, I had a little bit of an edible last night 1154 01:13:49,279 --> 01:13:54,159 and I played right now. Yeah, and I played one of those Dan 1155 01:13:54,199 --> 01:13:56,279 Dory battles. I'm like, this is a terrible idea, And I'm like, 1156 01:13:56,640 --> 01:14:00,439 I was actually relaxed enough that I was like doing awesome micro management between 1157 01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:04,039 both Och and my guy separate, and I was like, I felt like 1158 01:14:04,159 --> 01:14:06,319 rain manned a little bit. It was pretty good. I was, and 1159 01:14:06,359 --> 01:14:10,159 I crushed it and I got everything. I beat the entire level and it 1160 01:14:10,199 --> 01:14:12,760 was like a higher difficulty than I've ever done before. So it was like, 1161 01:14:13,039 --> 01:14:14,800 oh, man, Okay, I should play this way more often. 1162 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,880 This is pretty good stuff. Um. Super chaff from matt Elhart, and 1163 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:20,840 I said earlier like this would have been my draft pick. He points out 1164 01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:28,399 that Mike, you literally got picked before as your first pick, but like 1165 01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:31,239 at the time, I was like, that's oh, that's left. And 1166 01:14:31,359 --> 01:14:36,079 also Mike's very bad at Fantasy critic. Everybody necessarily beat it fancy critic. 1167 01:14:36,119 --> 01:14:38,800 I meant, like, ol for some reason, I can only get like 1168 01:14:39,199 --> 01:14:42,279 five games from what I knew was coming out. Sure in the year, 1169 01:14:42,319 --> 01:14:45,840 I wouldn't have picked to pick before, and like I probably should actually because 1170 01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:50,359 yeah, it's it is just that good. And now, I mean Boulterer 1171 01:14:50,399 --> 01:14:54,399 Skate three is intimidating to me. Mike being like, oh, you could 1172 01:14:54,399 --> 01:14:58,239 spend eighty hours on it. I'm not gonna like try to tap myself into 1173 01:14:58,359 --> 01:15:00,279 feeling like I'm ever gonna have to beat it, but I think I'm gonna 1174 01:15:00,359 --> 01:15:04,079 enjoy just keep playing it to have fun exactly like beat it someday. That's 1175 01:15:04,159 --> 01:15:06,840 nice. If you don't, just yeah whatever, because it is it is 1176 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:10,880 fun to play. I mean I've played games like that before, like this, 1177 01:15:11,159 --> 01:15:14,840 honestly. I mean I've done that with Divinity Original Sin two a couple 1178 01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:16,239 of times that are quite got around to beating it. I wish I did, 1179 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:19,000 but I didn't. Oh well, I guess I did that with fall 1180 01:15:19,039 --> 01:15:23,119 Out one. Even I still like played a bunch of fall Out one and 1181 01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:26,760 enjoyed it, so there's there's nothing wrong with that. Yeah, D mentions 1182 01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:29,880 if I like that Micromansion might like, uh Pickman three on the U. 1183 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:31,279 I played that game. I reviewed it actually, and I really liked at 1184 01:15:31,319 --> 01:15:34,479 the time, but I liked the luxe even better on the switch, at 1185 01:15:34,520 --> 01:15:38,000 least at the time. I don't know why this it did intimidate me, 1186 01:15:38,079 --> 01:15:41,880 but the switching between the three people did intimidate me, and Picked and three 1187 01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:45,079 I would probably have gotten over it for some reason. You do through me 1188 01:15:45,279 --> 01:15:47,399 if you get over it. But I think that has been one of the 1189 01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:51,600 franchises big problems is even in Pickman two, splitting out like make it a 1190 01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:56,720 bit like you can split up oche and and you're captain in this game, 1191 01:15:57,279 --> 01:16:00,439 um and and that you can do that, but they don't really emphasize that 1192 01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:04,239 too much. They teach you eventually, they don't emphasize it Pickman two and 1193 01:16:04,319 --> 01:16:06,640 Pickman three very much. You're gonna have two captains, split them up. 1194 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:11,359 You need to be separated to like maximize your efficiency because there's a big time 1195 01:16:11,399 --> 01:16:14,439 limit hanging over your head. And three is like even more of that. 1196 01:16:15,119 --> 01:16:17,640 Although you know, once you get good at like well well, you know, 1197 01:16:17,680 --> 01:16:19,680 I'm just pointing you over to the map. There's something over there. 1198 01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:23,560 Send them over there. I know that this area isn't cleared out, so 1199 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:27,079 I will actually go along and make sure that this is a safe path as 1200 01:16:27,159 --> 01:16:29,840 we push further in this direction, Like you get the hang of it real 1201 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:33,039 quick. But the thought I think to most people is that just sounds like 1202 01:16:33,119 --> 01:16:36,000 a lot of added stress. And I don't, I don't. I can't 1203 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:39,720 even imagine myself doing that, and people so people don't even try it. 1204 01:16:39,880 --> 01:16:42,640 And with this game, they're like, we need to step back from that. 1205 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:46,079 And that was that was definitely the right choice, the right choice that 1206 01:16:46,239 --> 01:16:50,359 that is uh right uh and then yeah, like yeah, back to Boulder 1207 01:16:50,399 --> 01:16:54,720 Skate three. I just, um, I really liked to seeing the dice 1208 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:57,800 rolls on screen. I love the dice rolls. I think I don't know 1209 01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,720 why, but having them literally baite dice rolls. What a couple of times 1210 01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:04,960 I played Dudges and Dragons, I cared so much more about that shit, 1211 01:17:05,279 --> 01:17:08,239 Like, yeah, I'm talking to it. I'm talking like I'm talking to 1212 01:17:08,319 --> 01:17:10,520 my guy. He's pinning to be a barkeeper, and they want me to 1213 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:12,920 roll a dice to see if I get information or not. Yeah, I 1214 01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:16,000 don't know why. I liked that a lot more than doing the battle. 1215 01:17:16,079 --> 01:17:18,319 So I like that that is, and I like that it's not like, 1216 01:17:18,359 --> 01:17:20,800 oh, we're doing the dice roll just in the background. I like that. 1217 01:17:20,880 --> 01:17:24,119 It's like, here's the dice. You're gonna actually roll a dice. 1218 01:17:24,239 --> 01:17:27,560 Cool and um, I kind of wish and this is like a problem with 1219 01:17:27,680 --> 01:17:30,239 D and D. I'm a problem. This is a facet of D and 1220 01:17:30,319 --> 01:17:32,600 D where like when you get a failing roll, I kind of wish there 1221 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:38,000 would be consequences sometimes, so like I got a critical failure and I'm like, 1222 01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:40,479 there should be consequences, and it's like, no, actually, you 1223 01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:42,479 just really suck at the thing you were trying to do and that's it. 1224 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:45,079 Nothing bad happens, right, because I'm like, I want interesting things to 1225 01:17:45,119 --> 01:17:48,039 be happening, whether I'm rolling good or rolling bad, and it's like, 1226 01:17:48,119 --> 01:17:50,640 well, the interesting thing you usually is going to happen if you roll you 1227 01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:54,840 know, pretty good. But still overall, I really like that. I 1228 01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:58,840 liked m that. I don't know, it's that detective game. I can 1229 01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:00,760 never remember the name of that. Everyone really likes. Oh yes, yes, 1230 01:18:01,239 --> 01:18:03,720 now I'm breaking on it too. The one that they're having the legal 1231 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:08,239 trouble with the sequel, Yes, exactly, and everyone always in a chat 1232 01:18:08,279 --> 01:18:11,439 always has to help me remember it. But that game has dice rolls in 1233 01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:15,439 the disco Alicia, and thank you so much, h and like the seeing 1234 01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:17,199 the death of Dice rolls in that was always fun. This one puts right 1235 01:18:17,279 --> 01:18:19,159 up in front of you. I think I do wish it was like a 1236 01:18:19,239 --> 01:18:23,680 physical die die rolling around like a playing field. They just sort of like 1237 01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:26,960 cheat it, but it's it's a number generator, but it's still really fun. 1238 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,039 Um. And then you know, it's like exciting when you see like, 1239 01:18:30,119 --> 01:18:31,840 oh, you know, I gotta I gotta nine and the checks the 1240 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:34,359 skill check was a ten, but I have a plus one and so I 1241 01:18:34,399 --> 01:18:38,319 got a ten, so I passed. It's really exciting. UM. And 1242 01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:43,359 then like you sup, we're saying earlier the U the production values, it 1243 01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:47,199 looks so good for one of these, and it honestly just looks good period, 1244 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:51,600 Like like the details on all the characters. Um, the creative character 1245 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:56,720 is very very good. It's just you could tell that a lot of love 1246 01:18:56,800 --> 01:19:00,359 was put into this game, and it's not just um, oh, like, 1247 01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:03,560 oh, there's detailed characters if you're playing like this one kind of character. 1248 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:06,800 The breadth of content here, like it's it's just like you can do 1249 01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:12,399 your own specific character, or they give you six main characters that you can 1250 01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:15,680 actually select rights like straight out of the original. Sin two has something like 1251 01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:18,560 that. They did that before end. But it's like yes, and it's 1252 01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:23,079 like, looks like there's a ton of work from that angle put in here. 1253 01:19:23,159 --> 01:19:26,960 So yeah, it just feels like this is a love letter to the 1254 01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:30,319 genre, love letter to fans of this kind of game, and it also 1255 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:33,000 is it's not just that it is carrying it forward as well, and I'm 1256 01:19:33,039 --> 01:19:38,720 I'm very excited to play more. Very early on the game, speaking of 1257 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:41,720 dice rolls, they they want you to roll better than a one. Better 1258 01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,720 you have to roll at least a two. Yeah, basically just get a 1259 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:49,119 party member. Right yet, Oh really, but I wondered if they were 1260 01:19:49,159 --> 01:19:53,840 cooking those early ones some people assume, but in like, I didn't. 1261 01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:56,800 I don't want to be like the scums like save Scummer in this game, 1262 01:19:57,039 --> 01:19:59,000 right, Like, oh, I'm just gonna keep rolling. It's like what 1263 01:19:59,079 --> 01:20:00,560 I want. But I was like, Okay, look I'm not going to 1264 01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:04,960 not get this party member sure the rest of the game, because like Roto 1265 01:20:05,039 --> 01:20:09,920 one year, it was uh just incredible. What kind of character did you 1266 01:20:10,039 --> 01:20:15,479 make though? I actually went with a a historian, the white haired elf 1267 01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:17,479 guy Rogue, So you did go with one, the guy who's kind of 1268 01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:20,279 on the main cover everywhere. I think, here's here's my plan. I 1269 01:20:20,359 --> 01:20:25,720 think for my personal game, I'm going to play through like that and then 1270 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:29,279 if we do any multiplayer stuff with like the guy's a giant bomb. Uh, 1271 01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:31,159 my plan is to create a character for that, and I think I'm 1272 01:20:31,159 --> 01:20:33,279 gonna be a little uh. I think I'm gonna be a little dwarf. 1273 01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:36,760 I want to be either that or half lean one or the other. I 1274 01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:40,119 like the idea of being like a little hot but a little freak. Yeah. 1275 01:20:40,159 --> 01:20:41,920 Yeah, well I want to be a little freak. I absolutely do. 1276 01:20:42,039 --> 01:20:45,600 And I think that would be fun because I expect, uh, everyone 1277 01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:47,640 else to either make a super hot lady or a super buff dude, and 1278 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:50,239 I want to stand out from that a little bit. And if I stand 1279 01:20:50,279 --> 01:20:55,319 out, I mean stand down. Yeah. I made I made a standing 1280 01:20:55,319 --> 01:20:58,960 on real quick. That reminds me. I think last week we I was 1281 01:20:59,079 --> 01:21:01,560 making a joke about how we were taller than everyone at the gaming thing, 1282 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:03,840 and so one pointed out that that was kind of rude, and they were 1283 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:06,479 right, And I thought at the time, you did a good job of 1284 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:10,920 pointing out how stupid I sounded by making a sound like we're alpha males or 1285 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,800 something. I'm gonna emphasize that that was a very stupid thing I said. 1286 01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:16,760 I was just joking. Everybody, so sorry about that. I think it's 1287 01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:19,840 so you're fine. Yeah, someone pointed out, I'm like, you're right, 1288 01:21:19,880 --> 01:21:24,960 absolutely, it's okay. Somebody pointed out that we brought up that Taylor 1289 01:21:25,119 --> 01:21:29,119 Swift think from that Jimmy Fallon bitz. I was like, you shouldn't do 1290 01:21:29,239 --> 01:21:31,079 that. I'm like, man, even though I can't imagine anybody that's more 1291 01:21:31,199 --> 01:21:35,720 like aiming high, for sure, I won't make fun of Taylor Swift in 1292 01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:40,279 anyway. Well, that's just for your own personal safety. But that's just 1293 01:21:40,359 --> 01:21:42,640 for my own safety I was making fun of. I was just I just 1294 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:47,640 thought it was funny with those other guys. I don't care because I have 1295 01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:50,159 no opinion. I end up, to be honest, I never really looked 1296 01:21:50,279 --> 01:21:57,680 there. I don't even know Anyways, um I made I made out just 1297 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,239 a human male cleric. I like be healers in these kind of games. 1298 01:22:00,319 --> 01:22:05,960 Jeff, ever since Divinity Original, not Devin ever since Dragon Age origins, 1299 01:22:06,199 --> 01:22:10,319 because in that game, there's only one healer you can get in your party, 1300 01:22:10,359 --> 01:22:13,880 and it's just some old lady and you gotta have her at your party 1301 01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:15,720 because you need a healer. It's like just kind of had Grandma with me 1302 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:19,359 the whole time, even though they are all these cool characters I wanted by 1303 01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:21,720 party, and the whole time I kept thinking I should have been a healer 1304 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:28,000 then I wouldn't need this Grandma here, because I think you're always gonna find 1305 01:22:28,079 --> 01:22:30,560 other people to deal damage. You're gonna have those rights am around, right, 1306 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:33,199 But like a healer, you're gonna on the one may as well be 1307 01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:38,119 me in case the only healer they throw my way sucks or something. Although 1308 01:22:38,279 --> 01:22:41,560 in this game, like the second person you meet is a healer is a 1309 01:22:41,600 --> 01:22:45,039 clear healer too, So that's the one I almost didn't get in my party. 1310 01:22:45,119 --> 01:22:46,399 So yeah, have you, like in your game, have you met 1311 01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:48,600 a story and yet, because I'm wondering if, like, since I picked 1312 01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:51,800 him, if you get him handed to you earlier or whatever. I don't 1313 01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:56,159 think I just pulled a I just pulled a guy out of a portal. 1314 01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:58,880 That's that's not fake. I don't think it's a story, and I think 1315 01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:02,000 it was a wizard. So not him. Historians are what is a rogue? 1316 01:23:02,039 --> 01:23:05,119 Rogue? Yeah, not him. Then I'm to come across him yet, 1317 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:10,760 Okay, I'm It's it's like, oh, you they present those characters 1318 01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:14,279 to you that you could select from, and then when you play the game 1319 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:15,399 like that's those are the first people you're meeting. So I'm like, oh, 1320 01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:18,039 that must be the main crew and that's how they're actually making this all 1321 01:23:18,079 --> 01:23:20,359 work. So I was like, oh, well, if I'm paying one 1322 01:23:20,399 --> 01:23:24,560 of them, I wonder another character would have been here instead. And I 1323 01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:26,800 have no idea. Yeah, I was wondering something that myself just like, 1324 01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:29,359 yeah, well I know I could play this like you know that in the 1325 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:33,680 beginning. I know she's not an orc, but whatever, it's from Mass 1326 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:36,600 Effect but whatever. Yeah, but you see this like her in the CG 1327 01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:40,800 intro. Even I'm like, what if I'm her? How does this play 1328 01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:43,439 differently? Or exactly what if I am that? Quick? Yeah, it's 1329 01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:46,279 interesting think about that but again Divinity, Rigel said, uh, Sin two 1330 01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:49,479 did that, but there it was a bit more straightforward because all those people 1331 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:55,439 were like right there in that starting boat with Yeah, you don't immediately encounter 1332 01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:58,720 all these characters right away that you did in that one. Yep. I 1333 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,680 um, yeah, I'm just kind of curious to hear more people talk about 1334 01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,720 this game. I'm gonna I'm want to hear their other experiences because it seems 1335 01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:09,399 like it's going to have a lot of opportunity for that sort of stuff. 1336 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:12,680 And also it's the kind of game that I think a lot of people who 1337 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,520 are playing it haven't played before or have not played in a long time. 1338 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:19,039 So it'll be cool to have this genre of front out there, kind of 1339 01:24:19,079 --> 01:24:21,680 front and center, and to hear what everyone thinks about it. And then, 1340 01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:26,079 you know, a couple of weeks, we're playing Armored Corps, playing 1341 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:29,640 Starfield, We're playing so many back at it, yes, right back at 1342 01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:31,600 it. Yeah. We we had like one week where like nothing came out 1343 01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:35,119 basically, and then Picking four came out and now here we are and it's 1344 01:24:35,199 --> 01:24:38,279 just right back. I mean, you know, there's like Ben's like again, 1345 01:24:38,359 --> 01:24:41,319 smaller stuff. I feel bad and not play more but that Double Dragon 1346 01:24:41,359 --> 01:24:44,239 guide and we really like that than like the game came out. I haven't 1347 01:24:44,279 --> 01:24:46,720 really been able to play. Everyone everyone who played Dave the Diver it keeps 1348 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:51,279 talking about really likes that. And then um want to go back to remake 1349 01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:56,319 the Sister Star remake, which I feel like was really really you watch that 1350 01:24:56,319 --> 01:24:59,680 Matt mcmussele's video about it. I keep wanning to watch that System Shock Yeah 1351 01:25:00,239 --> 01:25:02,560 no, oh no, I didn't see it. Is what happened that just 1352 01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:04,760 came out now, I haven't seen that one. Yeah, yeah, I'm 1353 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:08,960 gonna check that out. Yeah, so because it was in development hell for 1354 01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:12,520 a while, so I want to see but yeah, just gosh, I 1355 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,640 kind of like I resent because I would like to play more Boarders GAT three 1356 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:19,039 almost tonight, but I like, I really want like a big block of 1357 01:25:19,159 --> 01:25:21,399 time to play it, and I know we kind of like hang out. 1358 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:25,199 I don't want to play it while talking to people. So it's like, 1359 01:25:25,319 --> 01:25:28,000 man, I just can't wait till hopefully it's some time tomorrow to play it 1360 01:25:28,079 --> 01:25:32,000 some more and all this stuff we'll see. Yep. We're we're kind of 1361 01:25:32,119 --> 01:25:35,319 debating, going back and forth about doing it for UPF tomorrow or maybe that 1362 01:25:35,399 --> 01:25:40,520 new Fortnite stuff. But I'm I can make two hours of Boulders game multiplayer. 1363 01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:42,399 I think I think I'll probably would be enough to like get a good 1364 01:25:42,399 --> 01:25:45,640 idea of what that's like. Yeah, so hopefully we can make that happen. 1365 01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:48,079 I think that'd be fun. Okay, Mike, I think we're gonna 1366 01:25:48,079 --> 01:25:50,079 wrap stuff up. So that sound good. Maybe get out of here, 1367 01:25:50,439 --> 01:25:54,159 Yeah sounds good. Oh Dan Record doesn't like our list, I don't know. 1368 01:25:54,199 --> 01:25:57,439 Oh he's he loves gold and nine that's right. Yeah, he's a 1369 01:25:57,520 --> 01:26:00,760 big goal. He's one of those freaks. I just um, I played 1370 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:05,840 a PC uh not port like basically remake that fans did of Golden Eye with 1371 01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:09,319 mouse and keyboard support, and that was fun. I played that for like 1372 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:12,640 a hot week and I had a good time with that. I just can't 1373 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:14,399 go back to that original. I mean, I think I don't have to 1374 01:26:14,439 --> 01:26:16,760 do analog sticks. I mean, I mean I said this before, but 1375 01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:19,960 like I had Quick like you know, I know it's spoiled. I could 1376 01:26:20,039 --> 01:26:23,640 play Quick do like we had a computer. I could do that, so, 1377 01:26:23,800 --> 01:26:26,319 like you know, and that was you know, around the saving year. 1378 01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:29,560 So I just never I never really cared about gold and I too much. 1379 01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:30,880 I played it. I had some of my play have to play with 1380 01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:36,199 people. Sure, but I was I never really quite understood the giant Uh 1381 01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:41,439 hoopla, Uh, Mike, anymore super tricks before we get out of here. 1382 01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:45,680 Yes, Giovanni di Giorgio says, just wanted to show my appreciation. 1383 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,079 Keep it the great work.

When 1387 01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:03,720 when I saw that meme, I immediately thought of Green Dog. Remember Green 1388 01:27:03,800 --> 01:27:10,199 Dog? I don't remember Green Saga Genesis Green Dog. No, no memory 1389 01:27:10,239 --> 01:27:12,880 of Green Dog for the Saga Genesis. I think I remember seeing Green Dog 1390 01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:15,800 at a demo station out of Sears and I thought the gate looked really cool. 1391 01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:19,119 Apparently it's terrible. Uh sorry, but I remember Red Dog that like 1392 01:27:19,199 --> 01:27:23,840 that beer from the nineties that was a big deal for Green Dogs is the 1393 01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:27,159 beach Bum and he's in a two D platform for the Sega Genesis, which 1394 01:27:27,159 --> 01:27:30,920 I still kind of want to place them.

For me, it's 1479 01:33:41,079 --> 01:33:43,399 like, yeah, it's like links awake in the rap. Sorry, it's 1480 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:45,960 like, um, linked to the past but three D and very good. 1481 01:33:46,039 --> 01:33:50,159 It's very good. But I just I don't know.

So and 1483 01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:57,439 you play this game so all the time, So it's not like this is 1484 01:33:57,520 --> 01:33:59,520 not like oh, when there was a Kuti, what's good? This is 1485 01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:02,359 like no, no, yeah, well yeah, it's it's been a couple 1486 01:34:02,359 --> 01:34:04,800 of years for Ocher enough time. But I yeah, I played the three 1487 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:08,479 D S version when I was getting my three DS hacked. I played it 1488 01:34:08,680 --> 01:34:11,960 again a little bit. Um, well, I should you get that out? 1489 01:34:12,119 --> 01:34:15,399 I'll get that out. Maybe that's why are you still in Nintendo jail. 1490 01:34:16,560 --> 01:34:21,600 Yeah, oh well listen, if we were out in Nintendo jail, 1491 01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:25,960 the things wouldn't be that different. Like it's not like it like, oh, 1492 01:34:26,079 --> 01:34:28,720 we'd been making so much more money because we have access to these games. 1493 01:34:28,840 --> 01:34:30,680 Now, people the same amount of people you're watch them. We'll be 1494 01:34:30,720 --> 01:34:33,840 fine. We're all good. Linked to the Past is is better. But 1495 01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:40,399 you can't deny yes, Occherio The Times importance is, Yeah, you cannot 1496 01:34:40,439 --> 01:34:45,000 overstate it. You're right, it's it's huge. Um yeah, I really 1497 01:34:45,039 --> 01:34:46,960 like Oker enough time. I just I just don't know if I still love 1498 01:34:47,039 --> 01:34:51,159 it the way I did back in nineteen ninety eight. Um, but I'll 1499 01:34:51,199 --> 01:34:55,760 get that three D S version out and play something this week. I just 1500 01:34:55,840 --> 01:34:58,560 played on the Steam Deck, though I don't know my three D S. 1501 01:34:58,600 --> 01:35:03,279 I ordered a battery for it Christian from Amazon, and I think I threw 1502 01:35:03,359 --> 01:35:09,479 it away. I think other things came in the box, because I remember 1503 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:12,520 getting a box that said lithium ion sticker on it. I'm like, oh, 1504 01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:14,000 that must be in there, and I opened it and like, I 1505 01:35:14,039 --> 01:35:15,720 think something else was on top, and then there was some paper, and 1506 01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:18,960 then I don't think I ever found or really even looked for the battery, 1507 01:35:19,279 --> 01:35:23,000 and I think I just threw the box out. And so I just threw 1508 01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:26,239 out a lithium iya. I knew lithium ion battery. So if my local 1509 01:35:26,319 --> 01:35:29,840 dump catches on fire, it's my fault. Yeah. The next yeah, 1510 01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:33,439 the next wildfire that happens. Yeah, I need to buy it directly into 1511 01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:36,000 you. I don't have to buy another one of those because my three DS 1512 01:35:36,119 --> 01:35:41,840 battery is fucking shot. It's completely shut. She gets strong here. Yep, 1513 01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:44,960 that's right, fishing love. All right, Mike, you're good to 1514 01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:46,680 get back into it.
