00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:27.160
Hey, everybody, it's Tuesday.
You're listening to the Giant BombCast. I'm

2
00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:32.759
your host. Jeff Grubb joining me
is a cavalcade of just real nonsense.

3
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:37.359
Dan Reikert is here. Dan Rikert, how are you doing. I'm doing

4
00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:40.759
great. I'm feeling all right.
I'm at like ninety plus percent right now.

5
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:43.479
I'd say I'm running again. I'm
good. That's the first time in

6
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.079
a while, right, bub ninety, I think so, I'm bub ninety.

7
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:48.320
I'm moving around. Just some weird
goop in the face, but not

8
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:51.920
much. It's a it's I'm feeling
feeling better, traveling, doing a doing

9
00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:55.240
the things. It's great, Sean
Turbo, Sean McDowell, how is your

10
00:00:55.320 --> 00:01:00.079
goop in your face? It's all
together and contained in Jesus Christ, I

11
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.320
could never be on a sitcom because
Dan just like knows how to break me

12
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:07.840
so well. So Dan Rekert got
a teleprompter and he's using it to stare

13
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.599
directly into Turbo Sean Soul. I
mean, he's looking at all of us,

14
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:14.480
but I think it's mostly getting Sean. I'm just looking away feeling it.

15
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:19.000
Yeah. Oh whoa this, Oh
this is too much power. Sean,

16
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.480
who do you think is going to
be more annoying with their new technology

17
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:26.719
today. Dan Reikert or Mike Manati's
also here. How are you doing?

18
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:29.519
Hi head, No, I'm good. I dreamt about you last night,

19
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.799
Jeff. But oh, okay,
what do we do? We were at

20
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.920
EA seeing a fronque of dragon Age
the Veilguard, and you were being very

21
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:44.439
rude and it may be very uncomfortable. Yeah, like what was I like

22
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.640
just like leaking EA stuff to their
face or something. No, like the

23
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:49.799
like the person give me the demo's
like how's everyone doing? Everyone's like great,

24
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:52.280
great, great, And you got
to you, Jeff. You're like,

25
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:53.640
I'm doing all right. She's like, ah, why all right?

26
00:01:53.719 --> 00:02:00.040
And You're like, well, I'm
not really enjoying the demo. And then

27
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:05.359
like later I look over at you
and like, for some reason you had

28
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:13.439
somehow changed your devastation to be playing
Modernation Racers because you as you do,

29
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:15.199
We've all done. You know,
I'm like trying to think I'm gonna like

30
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:17.840
work with a pr person to do
this to you in real life. At

31
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:21.840
some point three years from now,
I was like, forgot about this,

32
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:25.639
you can't do that. I went
to a demo mic I went to a

33
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:29.639
mod Nation Racers pr event, and
while I was playing it, I wished

34
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:35.080
I could modit to play something other
than Modernation Racers. What deep recess of

35
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.319
my brain is mod Nation Racers living
in right now that I can dream?

36
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.159
Do you think I am probably the
last person in your life to say the

37
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.479
words mod Nation Racers to you,
like a couple of months ago. Probably

38
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:54.400
what happened there. There's one neural
connection in my brain and like the literally

39
00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:00.199
the electricity zapped them together for this
what tree to seek? It's incredible.

40
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:02.879
We got to do something with this. It's like it's just sitting there.

41
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.879
This is too good to pass the
minati. Speaking of press events, it

42
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:10.240
made my heart feel good to see
you and Ben Hanson hanging out. Yes,

43
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:15.319
I was enjoying that. How that
great house at Disneyland again, I

44
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:22.080
was there for a Star Wars Outlaws
appreciated in your defense, that's not that

45
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.840
you need defending. You did try
not to go, like you tried to

46
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:28.439
get like some other people on your
staff to go, and then they're like,

47
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:30.879
no, we're good. What it's
like, all right? I guess

48
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:35.439
how good at Disneyland. Sure,
I'm a little tired of making that l

49
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.479
lasherp I will say the third time
this summer. But no, it was

50
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:42.039
a it was a good event.
I'm not allowed to talk about that game

51
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:44.479
yet. I'm not allowed to say
when I could talk about it. But

52
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:46.439
you know, when I can,
he'll all be the first to hear about

53
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.680
it. But yeah, we had
like a fool day at Disneyland. I

54
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:53.240
was there even longer than I when
I was there with with you two,

55
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:59.000
like I think, a good sixteen
and a half seventeen hours in a heart

56
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.039
hang on, you weren't king about
the no, of course not. We

57
00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:04.840
got there at eight am when they
opened, and then so the park closes

58
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:08.759
at midnight, but you can linger
for a while before you actually have to

59
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:12.879
leave. So I probably walked out
there about like twelve thirty twelve forty five.

60
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:15.759
Yeah, and I felt great.
This man dead ass was like,

61
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:18.560
no, no, Sean, what's
wrong with you? Of course I was

62
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:24.040
there for hours. You got to
maximize your hours when you're in there.

63
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:26.560
Yeah, it was the last one
standing, for sure. We had a

64
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:29.439
we had a pretty good group.
But yeah, hung out with Ben for

65
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:31.199
uh for the whole time. That
was really nice. Really, you know,

66
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:34.000
I've met Ben a few times now
Dan, but really got to bond

67
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:36.800
with and it was good stuff.
Yeah, and I think you guy,

68
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:41.160
huh yeah, yeah he didn't.
I know, he's kind of he filmed

69
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:45.160
me a lot, uh, giving
kind of a tour and dropping my Disney

70
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:46.839
nuggets of wisdom. And I know
there's gonna be a video over on min

71
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:50.600
Max about that too. So I
like that Dan has stopped describing him as

72
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:54.399
a serial killer and just says interesting
guy. Now, I don't think he's

73
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.680
a serial killer, for I know
he stopped. I said, you started

74
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:01.720
human being. Just think he's interesting, which is like leaves the door open

75
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:04.800
for so many more possibilities. I
think. So that's nice. I know,

76
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:09.759
I know Disney freaks are more freaks
than wrestling freaks now because like you

77
00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:13.680
know, Minati will say for sixteen
hours and only leave when he's like kicked

78
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.759
out of the park where he's like, look, I am obsessed with wrestling.

79
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:19.079
I know Jan loves wrestling. You
know, we go to WrestleMania.

80
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:23.319
Anytime I've gone to the last ten
or eleven, WrestleMania is in a row

81
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.839
and every time me and whoever I'm
there with, by the end of even

82
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:29.600
just a couple of days, You're
like, there's a lot of fucking wrestling.

83
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:31.879
This is a lot of this is
a bit too much wrestling maybe,

84
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:34.680
whereas like Disney preaks are just like
my mom, I just give me more,

85
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:39.480
you know. I might argue that
there's perhaps a greater variety of things

86
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.360
you could do, and it's the
park at a wrestling show that I have

87
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:48.480
Uncle Howdy VHS tapes exploring death and
Greep. I could find PHS tape at

88
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:57.680
Disney. I have mentioned the Uncle
Howdy of Disney like that that how excited

89
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:00.120
are you boys for twisters? You
know? And yeah, me too.

90
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:03.120
Actually, I'm like I was gonna
come in here and do it, be

91
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:05.920
like, oh, isn't it funny
we're excited about twisters? And now I'm

92
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:09.639
like, actually, just like really
excited. We're want to have the same

93
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:12.360
thing I had with Top Gun Maverick, where I was not excited at all,

94
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.680
didn't care, and then like the
buzz was so good that I saw

95
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:18.360
it it absolutely loved it. So
that happened for this one. I'm good

96
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:20.680
to hear that. I'm glad to
hear that, because, like I have

97
00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:26.360
wondered in recent years, whether like
in my head Twister is like a movie

98
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:30.360
event of the nineties. But then
I also realized I grew up in Kansas

99
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:33.399
and saw it in Kansas, so
everyone that I'm like, we all related

100
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.839
to it. You know, like
it was like we've all been in the

101
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:40.079
basement a million times hearing the sirens. I've seen tornadoes. You know.

102
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:42.600
It's like so it's like, wait
a minute, do we hold this as

103
00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:45.839
like a very important cinema event And
in the rest of the country's like,

104
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:46.920
oh, yeah, it was that
cheesy tornado movie. You know. I

105
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:50.839
thought the same thing about Major League
because it was about the Cleveland Indians at

106
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:53.920
the time, so it was like, no one else cares about this.

107
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:57.079
Yeah, people like, actually,
I think I think Major League's pretty popular.

108
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:01.040
I think Twister actually was very like
huge. It was big as big

109
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:04.199
as maybe it was in Kansas.
It was a big movie. This one

110
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:06.920
feels this one feels like it is
going to do the top Gun Maverick thing.

111
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:10.279
Though. Yeah, it was one
of those movies like Jurassic Park,

112
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:15.279
where like the subject matter suddenly became
very popular. There are a million TV

113
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:19.480
documentaries about tornadoes and everything everywhere,
just like there was all that dinosaur stuff

114
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:25.040
after Jurassic Park, suddenly we all
know what an F five is. Yes,

115
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:28.600
exactly, the finger of God.
Of course, you guys, ever,

116
00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:30.800
think about how it's weird that other
countries in the world don't really have

117
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:34.560
a tornado alley, Like they don't
really have a place in their country where

118
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:38.959
it's like that's just where tornadoes happen. What do they have like hurricane junction

119
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:43.600
or yeah, yeah, mostly in
earthquake zone. Yeah, what other countries

120
00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:46.839
even do worry about tornadoes? A
lot of other countries have tornadoes, but

121
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:53.439
they're all like very very brief and
small and tiny. I looked into this,

122
00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:55.759
I'm like, is God just punishing
us? I think that's probably the

123
00:07:55.759 --> 00:08:01.240
most likely scenario. But also it's
like the the mountains on one side,

124
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.000
the Golf of Mexico down there,
and just flat land right Antarctica up there,

125
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:07.879
and all these things kind of push
against the mountains and it causes this

126
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.920
twisting wind that happens right over the
plains, and then there's not a lot

127
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:15.759
of stuff from the planes to stop
that wind. Speaking to yeah, the

128
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.600
plains, I got a real you
know, I grew up in Kansas,

129
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:22.120
so plenty of them. But like
this weekend. The last weekend, I

130
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:26.839
did the drive from Kansas City to
like near Oklahoma City there and back for

131
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:31.879
my sister's wedding. Boy and uh
oh boy, Oklahoma. I had not

132
00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:35.639
really spent a lot of time there. There is not a lot going on

133
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:39.639
there. And I say that as
someone from Kansas. Yeah, you say

134
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:41.240
that. It's like the drive through
Kansas. There is nothing going on.

135
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:45.799
So yeah, I even like Blahoma, let's spend one of them. Well,

136
00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:46.840
No, here's the thing. It
seems like it's just boring. Like

137
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:50.120
boring is fine. Like I'll take
Oklahoma over like literal hell on Earth,

138
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:54.759
which is Missouri. You know.
So like Oklahoma is not terrible. Missouri

139
00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:58.519
is a terrible state, of course, but Oklahoma is just very very boring,

140
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.000
and Kansas also very very boring.
I'm not acting like Kansas is amazing,

141
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.919
but at least we have Lawrence,
a good college sound and Barbaria.

142
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:09.360
Yeah, Jeff guys cauys you a
question. Maybe uh Sean can help out

143
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:13.080
to the Ohio jokes. I've been
ramping up lately, and that's fine.

144
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.519
I always you know, kind of
election. It's an election year, right,

145
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:16.440
and I was gonna get broughtup a
lot. It's on the tap of

146
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.279
people's minds. Yeaheah, I laugh
along with it, I go haha ha.

147
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:24.759
But I guess I never actually knew, like, are they serious?

148
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:33.120
People think Ohio is like a problem? What's the what is the gist?

149
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:35.879
Why are we the subjects of?
Because I lived there my whole life,

150
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.879
I just don't really know what it
would even be like to live somewhere else.

151
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:43.320
I'll say this as someone who is
a limited knowledge of Ohio about to

152
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.879
get some more in a couple of
weeks here. I growing up had no

153
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:52.879
thoughts on Ohio. I remember the
most interesting thing I thought about Ohio was

154
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:56.799
there were like the three biggest cities
all started with the sea. And my

155
00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:01.799
first time on the ground and Ohio
was driving through it when I was moving

156
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.240
back to Minnesota, and I do
remember us being in the car for it's

157
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:07.000
a good chunk, it's a fairly
wide state, and just doing a lot

158
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.639
of looking around, just being like, all right, yeah, I guess

159
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:15.200
there's just not it's I would say, unnoteworthy. It just seems like it

160
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:20.159
wasn't a Hell on Earth Missouri style. It wasn't it wasn't flat boring planes,

161
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.799
boring, like like Oklahoma or Kansas. It was just like, here's

162
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.000
a bunch of highways and this seems
to be some kind of city that we're

163
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:28.919
driving through. What what are the
other states? Like? Do you not

164
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.919
just drive through highways and rural areas
and cities? Is there like, uh,

165
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:35.840
the largest ball of t line is
like there something like I don't love

166
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:37.960
California, but like, you know, I've done that drive from like San

167
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.840
Francisco to l A and like it's
kind of interesting to look at. There's

168
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.200
like, you know, vistas and
the ocean. Unfair. Yeah, yeah,

169
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:52.559
Like more like, what what does
Ohio have going for it? As

170
00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:54.600
someone who has lived there his entire
life, Mike, you tell us was

171
00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:58.600
Ohio have going? I think we
have h you know, we have all

172
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:03.440
four seasons and and that's it's very
affordable. I appreciate that about it.

173
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:09.440
You know, we do have major
metropolitan areas that have all the stuff that

174
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:11.639
cities have in a nice mix of
I don't know, I guess it's just

175
00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:18.559
to be so in a nice way. We have a bedroom, we have

176
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:24.000
a bathroom exactly. It's like but
none of that is what the jokes are

177
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.320
about. The jokes aren't it's a
noteworthy. The jokes are it is a

178
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.639
problem, And I think what it
is is Ohio is a fun word to

179
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.919
say. I think it's ramped up
from Ohio's a boring nothing state to just

180
00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:37.759
like, well let me just pick
Ohio. Who's gonna care about us picking

181
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:41.200
out Ohio. It's two things.
It's like, Ohio does have three major

182
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.679
cities, so there's a chance that
you probably know someone from Ohio no matter

183
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.720
where you live, because we have
a lot of exports, a lot of

184
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.279
people that leave Ohio go elsewhere,
so you probably know someone from Ohio.

185
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:52.559
And then you're but then you're like, okay, wait, so what about

186
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.639
Ohio? And then you just the
word is funny to say. I think

187
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:58.759
people just like it's a good pageline
the concept. I think the joke would

188
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.919
work a with like Indiana, because
who the fuck thinks about Indiana? I

189
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.720
think I think, I think I
think we were getting shipped from Indiana.

190
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:09.120
I think I got shipped from Indiana
recently and I was like, you're just

191
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:18.200
Ohio to what are you? We
have the standards Indiana. The only thing

192
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:20.240
I know about Indiana is that lettermans
from there other than that, I don't

193
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.000
know as single pucking. It's like, Ohio, it's like, oh,

194
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.559
you got the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame, you got the Easter of

195
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:26.919
Cleveland, Columbus. You know,
I know these cities like Indiana, jack

196
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:33.159
Ship, their city is called indian
Indianapolis, it's city. Well, Kansas

197
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:39.159
is Kansas City and it's not even
in Kansas. That's New York City.

198
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:43.799
Yeah, come on, give me
a break. The polis like Sonapolis,

199
00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:50.440
Minneapolis, Indianapolis. Is that just
Indiana metropolis? No, because there's Minneapolis

200
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:56.639
and Kansas also, like paulis there. It's got to be like the same.

201
00:12:56.679 --> 00:13:00.360
It's got to be etymology of population. Paulis all right out right,

202
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:01.720
yes, yeah, okay, policy
right, yeah, okay, So it's

203
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:07.159
just the city, right, Greek
something like that, yeah all right,

204
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:09.679
yeah, so it's very uninspired.
It was. It was weird though,

205
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:13.879
Mike bringing it up during a Games
Done Quick or the past weekend. Two

206
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:20.240
weekends ago, they were doing the
one of the Mario Romhack ones, and

207
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:22.679
so like Grandpoo Bear was there because
it was what grandpoo World three or whatever,

208
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:28.440
right, and Poo just he's an
older streamer, I think he's you

209
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:33.039
know, his late thirties or something
like that, and the older first streamer.

210
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:41.600
Anyways, he makes it. I
can't do. It's too much because

211
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:43.440
you know he's looking right act I
know he's looking right at me. And

212
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.519
Poo just makes an Ohio joke out
of nowhere, and all the kids just

213
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:50.600
pop in the crowd, like,
is what what is this man learning on

214
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:54.440
his street? This is wild?
Why are the Ohio jokes popular? Now?

215
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:58.039
I don't know. Oh wow,
it's all right, you keep making

216
00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.759
your jokes. Just don't move here
and increase the rate of my mortgage or

217
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:07.240
something. It's fine to keep saying
away in that we are homeowners mic because

218
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:11.240
that would make our house is worth
more so. But whatever, I don't

219
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:13.480
want them to move here. That's
that's yeah. They did, and they

220
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:16.600
made it suck there, so I
can actually know how that works. I

221
00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:18.519
bought a house with time. They're
like, give us this bunch of buddy

222
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:26.159
each But I'm like, okay,
whatever you say. Real quick, before

223
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:31.200
we get into the video games,
are you guys going to uh peruse Prime

224
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:37.720
Day sales? Yeah? Prime Day? Let's go very good, excellent.

225
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:41.960
He's drinking up on Prime Day,
Yes, Okay, very good idea.

226
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:46.120
Do I need anything DVDs? I
didn't know there was a Planet Earth three

227
00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:52.000
that's on sale. I had to. I'm listening to an audio book by

228
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:54.480
David Attenburrow right now. It turns
out that's a very good move, right.

229
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.559
That voice, that's a good One's
good at reading stuff. Yeah,

230
00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:03.559
worried about chocolates other right, Yeah, he is Barry Attenborough. Nice.

231
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:07.080
I think it was Barry cool.
He's also Santa Claus in the remake of

232
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:11.120
mir Kwan thirty fourth Street. Speaking
of movies with young children in them,

233
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:15.759
I've had songs from Annie stuck in
my head the last few days. You

234
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.799
it's a hard knock life for us. It's so fucking old boy us.

235
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.559
Yeah. Look, I wasn't actually
born when Annie was out. Okay,

236
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.759
that's seventy seven times in Oklahoma over
the weekend, I heard a lot of

237
00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:33.879
my dad trying to sing what he
thought the musical Oklahoma sounded like, Yeah,

238
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:39.240
so incredibly accurate. Yeah, Dark
Day Leronde just poppy, and Chat

239
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:43.039
says old. No, he's just
weird. Yeah. Yeah, it's funny

240
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:48.000
because you're you're laughing about calling Benett
serial killer. My friends like to do

241
00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:52.240
that to me if I didn't know
any better, I think you are a

242
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:58.120
serial Oh god, Ben handsome.
No, I also don't think you're a

243
00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:00.360
serial killer. I don't think I
know many serious. The way he says

244
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:04.039
it as if it was a serious
possibility for both you and Ben is the

245
00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:11.240
funniest part of all this now,
And I don't think so now. I

246
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:15.320
wouldn't kill anybody. That'd be mean. I think less weird now than he

247
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.679
was, maybe like ten years ago. I think we all grow up and

248
00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:25.279
become well, did we become less
weird? Yeah, I think you could,

249
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:26.799
definitely. I think a lot of
people become more weird as to get

250
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:30.440
older. So maybe there's like a
dip and then we'll like shoot back up

251
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.799
here pretty soon. I'm just I'm
so happy that Dan has been because now

252
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:37.639
you know what it's like to look
in a mirror, maybe a funhouse mirrors,

253
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.879
looking at a mirror. No,
we're very different, different way,

254
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:48.960
it's the same thing in a weird
angle. Different, but it's cooked to

255
00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:52.639
the same time. There's enough common
threads and how we think and what we

256
00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:56.919
like for us to be really good
friends. But definitely both of us have

257
00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:00.679
thoughts and things we say that the
are you talking about? Dan? I

258
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:03.799
listened to that podcast you guys did
a few months back, just the two

259
00:17:03.839 --> 00:17:07.359
of you. Yeah, and it
was just YouTube going back and forth saying

260
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:11.720
you're the craziest person on Earth,
and it was it was hilarious. It

261
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.559
was like having two dance. I
loved it. It's been my relationship with

262
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:18.079
him for like fourteen years. Yeah, all right, I'm not gonna do

263
00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:21.799
a segue. I'm just gonna hit
the video game button. That's how I'm

264
00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:25.720
gonna host this ship. Everybody,
brace yourself for it. Jan don't you

265
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:33.720
dare? No way? Yeah,
there we go. All right, where

266
00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:34.920
are we going to go? First? Seeding? Meanie miney mo h,

267
00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:37.880
Mike, you were playing Dark Souls
last night. Let's talk about that,

268
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:41.720
because guess what it got me to
start playing Dark Souls too incredible. When

269
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:45.400
did you beat a ring yet?
Though? Yeah? Yeah beat all ring?

270
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:48.079
Yes? Right you did? You
did beat that file boss? Okay?

271
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:49.559
I was at I was literally at
the bottle. Like I mentioned that,

272
00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:52.720
you you were like texting me because
you were just streaming, and so

273
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:56.480
when he text Jeff and then you're
like, hey, they want me to

274
00:17:56.480 --> 00:17:57.119
tell you that I beat it,
and I'm like, oh, man,

275
00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.000
he's so far ahead. And then
I like went I did the fight where

276
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:03.920
you fight multiple people, and then
the next fight is the final boss fight,

277
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:06.000
and I'm like, oh, I
didn't realize I was here. I

278
00:18:06.039 --> 00:18:07.920
went to go do a bunch more
stuff, and then I was on my

279
00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:11.559
vacation. So it's kind of like
I don't really have a couple of hours

280
00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:14.759
here dedicated to like figure out this
boss. So when I got back and

281
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:18.480
I had done some skippey tree fragment
hunting, I came back and it was

282
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:23.599
like fifty sixty tries I think god
mine was forty three. I'm better than

283
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:26.319
you. I'm better than you.
Yeah. A big part of that was

284
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:30.720
I was just like going in there
doing some like data, but also my

285
00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:34.200
character build was not great for that
fight because they're like use a shield.

286
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:40.799
I'm not going to learn how to
use a shield now that game once.

287
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:42.759
Yeah, I'm still second to boss. I'm probably like twenty thirty tries in.

288
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:48.200
But quick question, have any of
you beat Sekero? Yes? Okay.

289
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:51.599
I was at Kayla's a couple of
nights ago and she's been stuck on

290
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:52.599
the last boss of Secaro and she
showed it to me, and how it

291
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:57.119
has like Boss four phases, and
like just watching her try again and again,

292
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:00.079
and you can't just like cheese it
and level up the way you can

293
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:03.440
and other from games now, so
you really do have to get good.

294
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.960
Well, yeah, and she is
incredible at those games. And I'm watching

295
00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:08.720
her straight at games I've seen her, yeah, and I'm watching how bad

296
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:11.319
she's struggling in and I'm like,
there's no like, there's a part of

297
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:14.000
my brain that for a long time, it's not like maybe I should go

298
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:15.839
back to second row. And I
watched that and I was like, there's

299
00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:18.759
no fucking way I would ever be
able to beat this game. Did you

300
00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:22.480
enjoy the final Boss of the Jeff? I did? Actually I was.

301
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.279
I'm glad it was as hard as
it was. Yeah, uh, and

302
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:30.119
it was. It really felt like
I was just barely getting by, and

303
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.960
I had to build my character in
a certain way that did play with my

304
00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:37.000
style, but where I could take
a couple of hits because it was just

305
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:41.759
so hard to avoid damage in that
second phase. So I was taking hits

306
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:45.519
and then I found the time to
either heal up or whatever. What really

307
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.160
helped is I was using the blastamous
blade and something about that. Listen,

308
00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:51.119
I only pay so much attention to
a game I'm playing. Come on,

309
00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:53.519
was coming to me to regain health
every time I would do damage? That

310
00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:56.880
works? Yeah right, so wait
wait wait, sorry, when you do

311
00:19:57.000 --> 00:20:00.759
damage or you take damage when I
do damage, So when you do that

312
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:03.000
l thing, yes, yeah,
yeah, that's killer exactly so so right,

313
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:06.880
so that like that's baked into that
weapon. So I was like,

314
00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:10.519
you know what, I'm going to
strategically kind of think about my health and

315
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:14.000
not always just go run to the
s S flask. I am going to

316
00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:15.240
be like, Okay, no,
I took damage, Let's just find some

317
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:18.680
safety and if I could do an
attack, I'm going to get back most

318
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:23.000
of that life and kind of peppering
that in and then also using Millennia's a

319
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:26.400
big ability that you can get that
causes scarlet rot. Oh yeah, that

320
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.839
scarlet rot will just destroy him.
So yeah, it doesn't look like it's

321
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:34.000
doing shit, but if you hit
him and the mimic is also doing the

322
00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:37.839
scarlet rot, everything was doing way
more damage. And then I got to

323
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:41.680
the second phase where he is you
know, there's a point where you can

324
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:44.759
grab you Yeah, yeah, he
can grab you. I'm not, Yes,

325
00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:47.960
he can grab you, and and
they like whisper something. And during

326
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:51.480
that he had been so scarlet rotted
that I was watching his health go down

327
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:53.880
whispering in my ear. And I
got out of there. My mimic died.

328
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:56.400
I hit him a couple of times
with the sword, and I was

329
00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.680
about to die let My life was
nothing, but the scarlet actually got the

330
00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:03.160
final hit on them the show.
I don't think I've gotten to the whisper.

331
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:06.279
Is it like a I'm sorry,
I love you type thing? Kind

332
00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:08.039
of? It's scarlett, I know. Yeah, is the thing I was

333
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.359
using, yes mechanic to dodge,
right, because it is kind of like

334
00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:14.799
it's like a big telegraphed one.
When you dodged, it feels great.

335
00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:17.160
I haven't even seen that yet.
Ship that makes me think of like it.

336
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:19.079
It doesn't do any damage though,
like when when they grab you like

337
00:21:19.079 --> 00:21:22.440
that. No, I don't want
to give the mechanic away, but you

338
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:27.240
don't want to be hugged by sure
the emotional damage yeah and maybe real.

339
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.799
Yeah, I'm glad you know it
turns out. Really it is just Hey,

340
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:36.440
get your reps and you're gonna learn
those patterns and stuff like that.

341
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:40.880
It's like every other bus ultimately at
the end of the day. Uh yeah,

342
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:41.640
and I enjoyed a lot, but
you know, yeah, so after

343
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:45.720
like beating that, I haven't actually
played through a whole lot of the frum

344
00:21:45.799 --> 00:21:49.880
Soft Souls games really well, which
ones have you played? I beat Bloodborne

345
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:53.759
back when that came out, and
no, I don't hate it. I

346
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:57.359
like Bloodborne, but I am like, I feel like everyone else who plays

347
00:21:57.359 --> 00:22:00.759
through Bloodborn is like, that is
one of my favorite video games ever.

348
00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:03.680
And I was like, yeah,
I liked that, and I don't know,

349
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:07.319
I never I didn't think about it
a whole lot. I don't know

350
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:10.640
if it was just me at the
time. Maybe I have more appreciation.

351
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:12.400
Yeah, I'm the exact same as
you. I played it, I beat

352
00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:15.759
it, and I think it's one
of the only from games I've beaten.

353
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:18.720
I think it's like that Elden Ring
and Armored Cordy, only once I've beaten

354
00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:21.960
like exactly the same. Then yeah, oh wow, Yeah, and I

355
00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:22.640
beat it. I was like,
damn, that was Yeah, that's clearly

356
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:26.559
a very well made game, and
I didn't really like think about it much

357
00:22:26.559 --> 00:22:29.119
afterwards. But then then you'll hear
people like plenty of people talk about how

358
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:30.599
it's like one of the best ever, and it's like, holy shit,

359
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:33.799
I had no idea it was that
revered. Maybe, like I don't know,

360
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:37.680
maybe that whole like kind of gothic
Victorian vibe just isn't super my thing.

361
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:44.960
I don't know as a person who
reacted the way he did when he

362
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:49.759
played cyberpunk, it's too cyberpunk.
Yeah, what the graffiti and the cyberpunk

363
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:53.920
was like you bleed or something.
Yeah, yeah, until you die or

364
00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:59.559
something. Oh god, that's realm
was hilarious. But just saying they're very

365
00:22:59.640 --> 00:23:02.440
uncover well, he's like, it's
all about sex, drugs and rock and

366
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:03.440
roll. It's so bad, And
the rest of us are like, yes,

367
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:10.440
Mike, that's why old Grandma.
Yeah, not to derail you too

368
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:12.279
much here by I'm curious for both
Mike and Dan, what what are your

369
00:23:12.519 --> 00:23:19.160
favorite from soft games? Usually out
in Ring Eldon and Armor Core prior to

370
00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:22.200
elden Ring would have been that's the
thing, Like I never played it,

371
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:26.799
really never played a ton more of
them, Like say, like I played

372
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:29.839
a bit of Sekero and I wasn't
joying it and then like fell off and

373
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:32.720
I want to get back to that. But the reason why I'm playing Dark

374
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:36.599
Souls is I have not really ever
played any of them very much. I

375
00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:40.880
played one and two and the Demon
Souls Remake, and I really have like

376
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:44.960
a big appreciation for those games.
I just think that like I don't know

377
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:47.839
if I'm just not good enough at
them, or like I always get like

378
00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:49.480
twenty five hours into them and then
I just kind of stopped playing. I

379
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:52.960
did that with Darkles and Dark Souls
two and Demon Soul's remake. For me,

380
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:55.960
it's like a patience thing where it's
like, oh, I got to

381
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:59.640
like really learn the patience here and
and kind of bring that throughout the whole

382
00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:02.359
game. And I can bring that
for like you said, a good twenty

383
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:06.079
twenty five hour period, but one
thing goes wrong, it's so hard to

384
00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:11.680
rebuild that like patientness and the patients
in there. But I'm with you,

385
00:24:11.720 --> 00:24:12.759
Mike, where it's like I haven't
played a lot of the Dark Souls one

386
00:24:12.839 --> 00:24:17.400
specifically, so I started with like
when you were playing it last night,

387
00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:18.720
and I put on the steam deck
real quick. On the steam deck,

388
00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:22.039
I can't tell if there's like something
wrong. It's just like, is dark

389
00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:25.519
and a weird way, and I'm
trying to are the gama just feels off.

390
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:29.200
But other than that, which I'm
going to maybe restart the steam deck

391
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:32.920
and see if that does something there, I'm enjoying it. It's like,

392
00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:36.039
hey, I'm glad to have so
many from soft games that are in this

393
00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:37.839
vein to go back to because I've
never really played Dark Souls one, two,

394
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:41.000
or three before I forget grabbed.
You mentioned your steam deck. I

395
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:45.440
know we were both having similar issues
recently with like the SD card and yeah

396
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:48.960
stuff like that. Mine is good
now I was able to go fight a

397
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:51.440
bunch of wind Waker again. My
save is good and everything is yours back.

398
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:53.279
Did an update correctly, I've not
had the same issue in the last

399
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.799
couple of days, so an update
must have fixed it. Okay, cool,

400
00:24:56.880 --> 00:24:59.519
cool, Yeah good good here.
But yeah, so, you know,

401
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:03.160
just kind of my first time playing
through it finally, and I alwall

402
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:06.480
say it playing it on stream helps
because they just kind of fun having people

403
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:07.759
there, like, you know,
if I like want a little like advice

404
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.240
or something. Yes, I cast
for it for some reason, and people

405
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:14.200
are I know, this isn't like
other things I watched people get really excited

406
00:25:14.200 --> 00:25:18.279
when you say the words I'm gonna
play Dark Souls for the first time watching

407
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:22.599
Last Night, people are excited for
it. You know. It's it is

408
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:26.160
like such an Xbox three sixty game
and like a lot of good ways and

409
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:27.200
bad ways, Like I like the
way it looks, but it also like,

410
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:33.680
oh yeah, lots of browns and
kind of like Puke Green playing remastered

411
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:40.440
edition. No no, no,
the remastered one. Well remaster Okay,

412
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:42.079
so you're right, that's right there
company remulous one. I mean, you

413
00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:45.920
know, which is like it runs
like sixty phrase per second, and you

414
00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:48.079
know, it's like in four K, which is nice, but it's still

415
00:25:48.160 --> 00:25:52.359
like the color palette is still very
Xbox three sixty, and I mean that's

416
00:25:52.400 --> 00:25:56.160
appropriate, right for Dark Souls.
It is called Dark Souls. That's not

417
00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:59.559
like something necessarily bothering me. In
fact, it's kind of endearing in a

418
00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:02.839
way. But yeah, you know, like a lot of my odoring stuff

419
00:26:02.880 --> 00:26:07.039
does just transfer over to this pretty
much. It's all very familiar and comfortable

420
00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:10.680
to me. I do miss having
a jump button, but you can still

421
00:26:10.720 --> 00:26:15.920
do a jump attack and things like
that. That that is uh b or

422
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:18.680
that's like dodge and uh are one
to do that to do the kick or

423
00:26:19.039 --> 00:26:25.000
in the jump out dodge in R
two, it's it's yeah, it's it's

424
00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:26.319
or is it a it might be
the sprint, Oh no, no,

425
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:32.720
it's just push forward on the move
forward right, Okay, that's fun because

426
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:34.480
it likes there's a lot of enemies
of show and I fought a lot of

427
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:37.759
skeletons with shields so far. So
you do that kick and they like lose

428
00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:41.200
their shield and then you hit them, so that feels satisfying. I find

429
00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:44.960
those games, like frum games in
general, are the only ones where I

430
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:48.880
want to actually put those back paddles
on my Elite controller. It sounds like,

431
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:51.359
b I'll put on like the back
when they're so it's like I can

432
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:53.519
run or dodge out of the way
while still moving the camera and move my

433
00:26:53.599 --> 00:26:57.000
character around stuff like if there's a
note or like cycling through all the like

434
00:26:57.079 --> 00:27:00.200
dpad things for like your items and
your your equipment and stuff like that.

435
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:04.240
It's actually really helpful totally. But
yeah, you know, it's just yeah,

436
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:07.799
it's just all feeling good. It's
working. It's you know, it

437
00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:11.000
is kind of nice doing a less
not linear because the map interconnects and all

438
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:15.119
those fun ways and playing Bloodborne,
I am kind of familiar with that style

439
00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:18.359
and that setup, but it all
is working here. There are some like

440
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:22.119
bullshitty things that, again because I'm
streaming, are kind of fun, Like,

441
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:26.000
oh, I turn a corner and
a boulder falls down the stairs.

442
00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:27.680
There's no way I could have possibly
reacted to that, but everybody has a

443
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:30.799
good laugh, right, so why
not? And you know, just the

444
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:34.640
way I play like, I will
sometimes come across this like optional mini boss

445
00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:37.759
guy that kills me six times,
but I can't. I just can't let

446
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:41.440
it go, so I kind of
throw myself against the wall there. But

447
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:45.240
then when I kill him, he
dumps this really great big sword and I'm

448
00:27:45.240 --> 00:27:48.880
like, oh great, now I
can equip this at some point. That

449
00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:52.400
feels good. So you know,
turns out Dark Souls is good for the

450
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.240
reasons everybody does think it's good.
I've already run into some of those characters,

451
00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:57.759
like the Praise the Sun guy.
I'm like, I know him,

452
00:27:57.920 --> 00:28:03.000
he's in a mebo, what's going
to be up with that? The bosses

453
00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:07.519
have been fun so far, but
yeah, just enjoying it and I'm excited

454
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:11.279
to kind of go through this one
it's going to be a fun time and

455
00:28:11.319 --> 00:28:12.960
then you know, maybe check out
some other ones. Like part of me

456
00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:15.759
is like do I play Dark Souls
too? Because so many people are weird

457
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:19.599
about that one. I really want
to play Dark Souls too because because of

458
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:22.960
the weirdness and theirs one playing a
lot of people has like a lot of

459
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:26.400
like really strong defenders and stuff like
that, and I kind of want to

460
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:27.960
play it. In last what if
I like played tark Sooles three, I

461
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:33.839
think I'll like guarantee that you'll end
up hating it. Ship Yeah, okay,

462
00:28:33.920 --> 00:28:37.400
but I mean whatever, that's fine, but the three is the one

463
00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:40.359
you hear the least about. Yeah. But it's also like like if you

464
00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:41.359
were to ask frum fans like,
hey, I want to go back to

465
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:44.640
Dark Souls, which one should I
play? They'll tell you to go play

466
00:28:44.680 --> 00:28:47.839
Dark SoRs. We talk about two
a lot because they want to, you

467
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:51.359
know, deride it, but they
like three was there something like the main

468
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:55.119
team didn't work on, Like I
do like their a team two is the

469
00:28:55.119 --> 00:28:59.200
one that team didn't work on.
Okay, mi a Zaki didn't direct to

470
00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:03.079
is how I remember people say that
control is feel weird and it's the one

471
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:06.960
that like it's you know, red
headed step child situation, right, but

472
00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:08.200
but like yeah, but like yeah, Austin Walker's a big fan of h

473
00:29:08.240 --> 00:29:11.839
Bomber Guy did a whole video why
d S two is like better than the

474
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:17.559
like the Devil May Cry to thing
where everyone's like ship with no caveats right

475
00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:19.440
there. There are people who do
defend too, so I kind of I've

476
00:29:19.519 --> 00:29:23.400
never heard the d m C two
is good actually defense, I've never heard

477
00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:29.160
of anyone, because no person say
that it's a game. I'm a d

478
00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:33.400
MC defender, like the Ninja Theory
one that's a good game that gets a

479
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:37.000
lot of may cry that one.
Okay, yes, two two is hot

480
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:41.359
garbage like everyone Yeah, well,
I mean in that comparison, you know,

481
00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:45.480
d MC Don't Make Cry is a
good playing game like everything that people

482
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:48.799
don't like it. But I came
down to aesthetics, whereas dm C two

483
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:53.400
is just busted ship, so heavily
on the aesthetics, like I actually really

484
00:29:53.480 --> 00:29:56.160
liked a lot of it, and
the fact that it is a story reboost

485
00:29:56.200 --> 00:30:00.680
so that people like this isn't how
Dante should be, you know, stuff

486
00:30:00.680 --> 00:30:04.599
like that. Whatever. Lot of
those kinds of fans crazy like Box News,

487
00:30:04.680 --> 00:30:10.799
like Level with That Boss credible,
very fun, It's very fun' I

488
00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:12.839
am curious, Mike. Do you
do you think you specifically are willing to

489
00:30:12.880 --> 00:30:17.200
go back to the old frum Soft
games just because you like elder Ring so

490
00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:19.799
much as not even a I want
to see what else this developer has done.

491
00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:22.880
It's sort of changed your mindset on
the games. Yeah, I think

492
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:26.160
I think that's a big part of
it. Like, I don't know why

493
00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:29.640
I was so disinterested when these games
were first popping off, because I do

494
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:33.559
consider myself somebody who plays a very
large variety of games and who will try

495
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:37.400
to play like whatever the biggest games
are of that year. So it's very

496
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:41.000
weird that I did just completely miss
I mean, I played you were You

497
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:44.960
in like the the bit Mob.
I don't know what we used back then,

498
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.799
but like maybe it's email threads where
like the editors were all crazy for

499
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:51.599
Demon Souls and I was just like, what are you guys talking about?

500
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:53.319
What is this game? Do you
want that? I played Demon Souls when

501
00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:56.839
it came out and like got a
little bit into it and not you know,

502
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.559
maybe maybe like because I didn't stick
around it long enough I just bought

503
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:03.599
into the hype about how hard it
was. It's like, oh, I

504
00:31:03.599 --> 00:31:07.400
guess they're just very hard, and
I'm, you know, not good enough

505
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:10.680
for it, I suppose, so
I don't know playing Elt and Ring like

506
00:31:10.680 --> 00:31:12.640
and I understand how this all works
now. And again I did beat Blood

507
00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:18.119
Born back in the day, so
like I can beat these games. Part

508
00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:21.640
of it, too, is just
even still people talk about Dark Souls one

509
00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.039
specifically all the time, right when
they're talking about their favorite game, the

510
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:29.599
best games ever. It's like,
Okay, I should probably go and experience

511
00:31:29.680 --> 00:31:32.359
that. Then, yeah, I
mean, maybe just enough time has passed

512
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:33.559
that things have changed, Like I
think people know by now. I'm a

513
00:31:33.640 --> 00:31:37.559
huge persona fan. I played four
when Golden came out and it just was

514
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:41.599
not clicking at all. And then, you know, several years down the

515
00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:45.119
road, I played five and that
one just magically clicked. And I went

516
00:31:45.240 --> 00:31:47.680
back and I was like, oh, Okay, this one is flawed in

517
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:49.119
this way and this one's lawed this
way. But they're both really good games.

518
00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:52.039
I do like them. Getting that
experience now it takes time. I

519
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:55.559
had that with Dragon Quests, where
I tried to get in the Dragon Quest

520
00:31:55.759 --> 00:31:59.440
multiple times, and then it was
when I finally played eleven that I really

521
00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:01.640
loved it and then was able to
go back and play a bunch of other

522
00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:05.839
entries in the series. Yep.
Sometimes it just suddenly clicks. Yep,

523
00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:09.160
Sean, you've been playing Kunitsugami.
I want to hear about it. I

524
00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:12.839
have specifically played the demo I want
to do. Want to be clear on

525
00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:15.359
that, because I know Redrews are
out, but yeah, I finally fired

526
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:17.599
up the demo for the first time. It's uh, it wasn't quite was

527
00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:22.640
what I was expecting because I feel
like every time someone plays that, they

528
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:28.200
say it's a hack and slashy mixed
with tower defense, which I think is

529
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.720
an interesting comparison. I definitely see
where a tower defense comes from, because

530
00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:34.880
if anyone still doesn't know what the
premise is, if you've only seen trailers,

531
00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:37.160
I wouldn't blame you for not knowing
what the premise is. Actually,

532
00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:40.640
it's like a brutal legend type situation
where it's like got that on the ground,

533
00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:45.960
hack and slides, but also there's
this like meta like because you're like

534
00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:50.839
a guy walking around instead of like
being a mouse cursor doing the quote unquote

535
00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:53.880
RTS or Tower defense. Right.
So yeah, so what this up is

536
00:32:53.880 --> 00:32:58.000
is at the start of a level, you can think of the level as

537
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:02.599
you know, your typical it's a
little bit smaller than an average like character

538
00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:07.200
action game arena. I would actually
speaking of the Delamite Cry series, the

539
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:12.519
original Delimite Cry sort of how those
levels are laid out where they have like

540
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:15.400
a central area and then sort of
some branching paths off of a kind of

541
00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:19.079
resident Evil style. It feels like
that. I think that's where some of

542
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:22.920
the comparison to classic capcom comes from. It does feel like sort of that

543
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:25.200
level design in addition to, you
know, the production value in the rtsell

544
00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:30.079
and earthing. At the beginning of
the level, you have your goddess.

545
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:34.880
I forget her name because I play
for a couple hours, but she starts

546
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:38.599
there and then you play as this
like Samurai style character who needs to go

547
00:33:38.759 --> 00:33:45.440
forward and basically clear the path for
her, the path of the Goddess.

548
00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:51.599
So what she does is she just
like slowly walks through the stage and purifies

549
00:33:51.640 --> 00:33:55.720
everything around her, like there's this
corruption that's corrupting everything, like demonic power,

550
00:33:55.839 --> 00:34:00.759
whatever it is. And so what
you do is you gather up just

551
00:34:00.839 --> 00:34:06.720
this currency orbs crystals wherever they are
as you go around the stage helping people

552
00:34:06.759 --> 00:34:09.880
out, like they'll be trapped in
this little trap, and then you get

553
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:14.079
them out, they give you some
currency and this can all be fed back

554
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:20.320
into giving the people you save weapons, pushing her forward along the pass and

555
00:34:20.360 --> 00:34:23.119
get to the goal quicker, and
then a couple other things. What happens

556
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:28.639
is it's a day night cycle.
So during the day you are preparing hence

557
00:34:28.679 --> 00:34:31.320
where people are getting the tower defense
elements from, and then at night the

558
00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:35.639
demons attack out of this gate at
the end of the level, and so

559
00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:37.480
that's where you run in and start
hacking and slashing, you know, your

560
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:42.960
deblement croye, your Okami style stuff. And where the strategy comes in is

561
00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:46.320
those villagers you save during the day, you position them around the map to

562
00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:50.760
take out those enemies as well to
help you, because eventually it's a Horde

563
00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:52.920
style, you know, like classic
zombie Hord style thing where they are just

564
00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:57.320
coming in droves and you need to
get rid of them so they don't attack

565
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.880
the goddess because you need to get
her to the end of level. And

566
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:06.480
in practice it feels more to me
a little more like what I think of

567
00:35:06.599 --> 00:35:10.000
as an RTS game as someone who
doesn't play rts's like, that's sort of

568
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:15.159
the vibe I was getting while playing
it. It felt like people within Capcom

569
00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:19.119
are strategy fans and they want more
people playing like the strategy stuff that they

570
00:35:19.320 --> 00:35:22.400
like, so they put strategy in
a game that makes sense to those of

571
00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:28.000
us who don't like that kind of
thing. I think it's a really interesting

572
00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:35.199
combination. I'm a little worried about
how what the longevity of the formula is

573
00:35:35.400 --> 00:35:38.639
of. You know, in the
daytime you get ready and that nighttime you

574
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:42.800
fight the monsters. Because in the
demo at least, which is a couple

575
00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:45.400
hours long, it's a decent demo, that's all I was doing, and

576
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:50.440
it's basically the same enemy types are
coming at you. You only get so

577
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:53.960
many soldiers. But I did hear
that there is more variety as the game

578
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:58.039
goes on and the difficulty does ramp
up, so you need to get your

579
00:35:58.039 --> 00:36:00.679
strategy more on line because there will
be more brand pass where they can flank

580
00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:05.480
the goddess and stuff like that.
So I'm really interested why I saw to

581
00:36:05.480 --> 00:36:09.079
begin with. I'm I'm curious I'm
curious how much longevity the formula has.

582
00:36:09.079 --> 00:36:13.079
For sure, how is it doing
with reviews? Because I haven't been paying

583
00:36:13.079 --> 00:36:19.519
too much attention every day some nines
following around, so I assume it's somewhere

584
00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:22.039
like the load of mid eighties.
Okay, that's that's not too bad.

585
00:36:22.199 --> 00:36:25.960
That's pretty good for you know what. I'm glad is still making like you

586
00:36:25.960 --> 00:36:30.000
know, the Capcom makes a lot
of very very big games right now.

587
00:36:30.039 --> 00:36:31.960
I'm glad that they are still doing
something like this. It's a it's a

588
00:36:32.000 --> 00:36:35.679
new ip. By the way,
Jeff, you have to update the game

589
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:37.800
title me. No, never mind, Sean, I'm sorry. I just

590
00:36:37.840 --> 00:36:42.119
assume everything's Jeff's fault, is the
right, I mean, he was so

591
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:46.280
rude to those poor exactly what my
wife gets mad at me for stuff I

592
00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:50.920
do in her dreamy absolutely may be
very uncomfortable. It's like, Jeff,

593
00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:54.000
we're never gonna get invited again.
What do you but yeah, and you

594
00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:59.519
know it's it's a game pass game, so I think don't really quite understand

595
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:02.119
what this means, uh, and
what if they're gonna like it? So

596
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:06.920
if game pass should be an easy
thing to try out on there, it's

597
00:37:06.920 --> 00:37:09.920
also like a forty dollars game,
right, Like it's a I think the

598
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:15.599
price was reduced. I don't think
it's your whole seventy dollars. That's fifty

599
00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:19.800
fifty Okay, well that's still the
budget price now, yeah, but bucks

600
00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:24.480
more than High Fire Rush. Yeah, I know that was a lot like

601
00:37:24.599 --> 00:37:28.760
word soup that I've saw of just
threw at everyone there. So hey,

602
00:37:28.760 --> 00:37:30.639
that's why the demo is there.
You know, you can go try it

603
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:32.360
out for yourself and see what it
is. But yeah, it is sort

604
00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:36.679
of that weird Capcom they do kind
of miss a little bit, So I'm

605
00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:39.519
glad that we have got, yeah
that complimenting, you know, your Residu

606
00:37:39.519 --> 00:37:44.599
Evils and Monster Hunters like man.
Capcom is just so back and I love

607
00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:47.079
it as a huge cap Com fan. They're just killing it across the board

608
00:37:47.480 --> 00:37:50.679
even more than ever, right,
I mean, like they've always been a

609
00:37:50.719 --> 00:37:53.480
presence and they always had a million
franchises. The degree of difficulty that they're

610
00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:58.199
operating at is way higher than they
to operate at before. Like having several

611
00:37:58.840 --> 00:38:02.159
massive giant budget games be great back
to back is different than having several nes

612
00:38:02.239 --> 00:38:06.199
games straight back to back. Like
the level of success they're seeing with like

613
00:38:06.280 --> 00:38:08.599
their big franchises right now, between
Resideval and Monster Hunter and everything, it's

614
00:38:08.599 --> 00:38:13.159
like they're fucking killing it. Yeah, they'll be they'll be really back once

615
00:38:13.159 --> 00:38:17.119
they announced that new Mega Man.
But they're doing very good. Kind of

616
00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:22.159
the last puzzle piece there isn't it? Eleven eleven is technically the best of

617
00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:25.480
my Mega Man game ever, which
means it's so like about two or three

618
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:30.760
million copies. And I maybe once
had a conversation with somebody at cap On

619
00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:35.000
Tolimita believe they weren't super thrilled with
with how it did. But I mean,

620
00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:38.119
look with Mega Man, how expensive
do they have to be to make?

621
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:42.199
And you know at least this right, it's like, oh, Bega

622
00:38:42.199 --> 00:38:44.920
Man, none of the games sell
more than a one or two million copies,

623
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:46.960
but a lot of them sell one
or two million copies, is the

624
00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:51.400
thing, right, So there's consistency
there, Like the Mega Man Battle Network

625
00:38:51.400 --> 00:38:54.719
collection sold a couple million copies,
So that's crazy. They'll make They're going

626
00:38:54.760 --> 00:38:59.360
to make a Mega Man game here. Eventually it'll happen or or is Mega

627
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:01.840
Man's fated of similar to what happened
with Mickey Mouse. Mic where it's like,

628
00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:05.199
well, he's a great mascot,
but we don't need to keep making

629
00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:08.639
movies with him. It's actually been
in games, Mickey Mouse has never been

630
00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:15.119
on TV. So but like with
that analogy, like what happened not too

631
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:17.320
long ago, right, like five, six, seven years ago they made

632
00:39:17.360 --> 00:39:20.519
those the Mickey Mouse shorts, like, oh, we're gonna actually start doing

633
00:39:20.480 --> 00:39:23.920
stuffing and fantastic. They actually made
a ride with Mickey Mouse again, right,

634
00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:27.320
so you know these things have been
flow. We'll get some Mega Man

635
00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:30.960
stuff here though. Man. Uh. Sean Shohnson, who makes like PlayStation

636
00:39:31.079 --> 00:39:37.000
one videos, released his big six
hour long video on every Capcom game on

637
00:39:37.039 --> 00:39:39.280
PlayStation one, which is really fun
and people should watch it, you know.

638
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:43.119
Like that was another era where Capcom
was just going nuts, like they

639
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:46.000
had Resident Evil, but tons of
Mega Man games and boy do I want

640
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:52.039
to play uh Misadventures of Trombon and
Mega Man Legends so very badly. Yeah,

641
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:54.440
you talk about weird Capcom. I'm
ready to play More Dead Rising.

642
00:39:55.440 --> 00:40:01.079
Oh yeah, because played sooner or
you never played it? Oh, they're

643
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:05.840
so funny and play I played three
because it was a launch game for the

644
00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:08.800
Xbox One, and actually I liked
it. I like it too, but

645
00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:14.000
one and two were way weirder and
funnier. Like I, I think this

646
00:40:14.039 --> 00:40:16.360
will be the ideal one to get
into. It was very anti zombie at

647
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:21.159
the time, so this was I
was too, But this was like good

648
00:40:21.239 --> 00:40:23.559
zombie stuff. This wasn't like Walking
Dead, serious zombie shit or whatever,

649
00:40:23.639 --> 00:40:29.559
like this is funny zombie when it's
just September. Oh cool. Yeah,

650
00:40:29.599 --> 00:40:32.239
I just don't like zombie games the
formula at all. And even I think

651
00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:37.599
there's charm in Dead Rising if nothing
else, because it's such a capcom game

652
00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:42.559
and knows it like Frank West puts
on a serve bot head and lights up

653
00:40:42.599 --> 00:40:45.440
a z saber like it's so good, but like it's just dumb, half

654
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:51.360
fun with it. Chad is informing
me that tron Bond was Ben Hansen's childhood

655
00:40:51.360 --> 00:40:54.280
crush per their Thirst Council show on
Men Max. So tron bon I can

656
00:40:54.400 --> 00:40:59.960
see that, not even not even
roll casket, no trombone checks out for

657
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:05.360
all. Right, let's see,
Sean, you've also been playing that stuff

658
00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:08.239
on your iOS device, which is
your new purchase recently. Tell me about

659
00:41:08.239 --> 00:41:12.400
that. Well, mostly put this
on here as an excuse to talk Apple

660
00:41:12.440 --> 00:41:15.880
products with my fellow Apple hater,
Jeff Grupp. I do not hate.

661
00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:20.880
I just let's be real. Let's
be real. Come on now, come

662
00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:24.440
on now, for since the dawn
of history, all the features everyone always

663
00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:32.159
talks about came to Android eight years. It's true. And you guys are

664
00:41:32.199 --> 00:41:35.840
just like, well that doesn't matter, but it kind of does. Yeah,

665
00:41:35.880 --> 00:41:37.679
yeah, no, no, no, because you and me are in

666
00:41:37.719 --> 00:41:43.280
the same boat where we've been using
you know, Windows PCs and Android phones

667
00:41:43.280 --> 00:41:46.199
for the long. I did get
the MacBook Air, That's yeah, that's

668
00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:49.800
yeah, that's what I wanted to
bring up because we're at a point now

669
00:41:49.880 --> 00:41:54.639
where these ecosystems are open enough and
then the hardware is interesting enough that it's

670
00:41:54.679 --> 00:41:59.000
actually like, you know, I
look at an Apple product, I'm like,

671
00:41:59.079 --> 00:42:01.320
this just does it better than the
equivalent? So yeah, I guess

672
00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:05.199
I will just buy it because now, you know, my iPhone here,

673
00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:08.320
I'm just putting Google apps on it, and I'm not using any of the

674
00:42:08.360 --> 00:42:13.199
built in apps, like I used
the clock and I use the calculator and

675
00:42:13.480 --> 00:42:17.480
everything else is Google apps and I'm
just using like an Android phone. So

676
00:42:17.559 --> 00:42:22.400
Sean, get Delta and get Warrior
worre twisted on your phone, and it

677
00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:27.880
is the best possible way to play
warriorword twisted Dan. I did that on

678
00:42:28.039 --> 00:42:34.440
my tablet in Study Hall High School. That's how long ago and right seventeen?

679
00:42:34.559 --> 00:42:38.719
Oh my god, is that even
exaggerating? I was trying to go

680
00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:45.519
comically. Wait a second there,
try like twenty ten. But cool.

681
00:42:47.559 --> 00:42:50.960
No, well, we'll speak of
emulation. I did figure out how to

682
00:42:51.039 --> 00:42:52.920
install alt stores, so now I
can just like sideload apps as well.

683
00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:57.840
It turns out Dolphin can't be on
the app store. Dolphin can be in

684
00:42:57.880 --> 00:43:04.039
other places. Dolphin on your phone. Yeah wow, Okay, what was

685
00:43:04.079 --> 00:43:06.199
the reason they won't put it in
the app store? I can't it doesn't

686
00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:13.920
have jit a Justina. But anyways, specifically, I want to talk about

687
00:43:13.920 --> 00:43:19.679
the performance because it is interesting,
like just how powerful these mobile devices are

688
00:43:20.039 --> 00:43:22.800
nowadays, Like I can run a
game I want to talk about here in

689
00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:25.920
a sec. But like Zembles Zone
zero, I'm running it on my phone

690
00:43:27.519 --> 00:43:30.360
with like, you know, not
far off settings from what I'm running on

691
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:35.320
my like mid range PC. Like
that's kind of wild that we're at that

692
00:43:35.400 --> 00:43:37.880
point now. I know it's a
simpler game and everything, but it's really

693
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:42.400
cool that I can. Yeah,
I can put it on. I assume

694
00:43:42.519 --> 00:43:45.400
you three have never done this on
your phones. But when you fire up

695
00:43:45.679 --> 00:43:50.239
a like high level Triple A game
on your phone, they just give you

696
00:43:50.559 --> 00:43:54.800
like PC settings to play with.
It's kind of weird to like select okay,

697
00:43:54.920 --> 00:44:04.239
texture quality especially, Yeah sevens on
on iPhone fifteen. Resident Evil eight

698
00:44:04.519 --> 00:44:07.719
is on your phone. I can
download village on here. Yeah yeah,

699
00:44:08.159 --> 00:44:13.039
Resivil seven that here will burn a
new story. Fewer than two thousand people

700
00:44:13.119 --> 00:44:17.039
have purchased Resume Evil seven on ils
Yeah. Wow, well yeah, because

701
00:44:17.119 --> 00:44:22.960
it's because it needs the iPhone fifteen
pro specifically wants to buy those games on

702
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:28.199
there. Sean, it's because it's
that it's a remake. Yeah, yeah,

703
00:44:28.360 --> 00:44:30.440
the Full Ass game, the Full
Ass Game. Yeah. How much

704
00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:35.559
is this get in at purchases?
Oh, it's notable with my device.

705
00:44:35.599 --> 00:44:38.599
Okay, it's like sixty or seventy
dollars. See it's not comparable with his

706
00:44:38.719 --> 00:44:42.960
device? Yeah, can get it, and then the people who do don't

707
00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:46.320
want to spend sixty dollars out that's
why it's not selling, right crazy,

708
00:44:47.159 --> 00:44:50.760
It's kind of wait okay, wait, no, Dan, are you would

709
00:44:50.800 --> 00:44:52.480
you if you could buy if it
was compatal with your dice device, would

710
00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:57.119
you spend sixty dollars to play Recule
four on your phone? No, exactly

711
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:01.599
what you're talking about. It's a
neat thing, but yeah, no one

712
00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:05.920
wants to do that. That's why
games, you know, like you like

713
00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:07.840
your wife, WU gotcha, games
are still like the what's big on mobile

714
00:45:07.880 --> 00:45:10.920
right now, because even with all
this power, you know, people still

715
00:45:10.920 --> 00:45:15.639
want to play this free to play
stuff you got Ashley an Ada though true

716
00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:25.679
anyway, probably probably not, Probably
no modes Jeff's Endless Zone zero sean that

717
00:45:27.000 --> 00:45:30.519
I saw this on the Google App
Store and I had like, oh like

718
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:34.159
three point one stars, and then
I looked at the other Mihelio once and

719
00:45:34.199 --> 00:45:35.960
they're all the same. And I
bet it's the thing where it's like,

720
00:45:36.000 --> 00:45:38.719
this doesn't run on every Android device, so people get like review it low

721
00:45:38.800 --> 00:45:44.880
or whatever. Oh no, it's
it gets reviewed bombs gambling. Oh sure,

722
00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:46.840
yes, yes, that definitely seems
like it could be it as well.

723
00:45:47.039 --> 00:45:50.280
Okay, but how are you finding
it? Are you happy with it?

724
00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:52.199
I know you, I know you've
been playing it for a few weeks

725
00:45:52.280 --> 00:45:54.159
now. Yeah, I I haven't
a ton of time to play it because

726
00:45:54.199 --> 00:45:57.639
I'm not gonna talk about it here. I'm not gonna bore people, but

727
00:45:57.679 --> 00:46:00.559
the actual game, I've been playing
a lot of Final Fantasy fourteen getting caught

728
00:46:00.679 --> 00:46:02.960
up before the news action I just
came out, So yeah, in between,

729
00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:07.280
I'll just fire up something else that'spou
on my radar, like the Kannitsagami

730
00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:12.360
demo and stuff. But Zeno Zone
zero is one that I've been looking for

731
00:46:12.480 --> 00:46:15.639
to a long time because, like
I said, our stream of at the

732
00:46:15.719 --> 00:46:20.360
r day, it's just it's so
my shit. Just the the art style

733
00:46:20.519 --> 00:46:25.559
of being jet Set Radio mixed with
Splatoon, the gameplay being very you know,

734
00:46:25.719 --> 00:46:30.039
just very character action, very deble
may Cry or like an action RPG.

735
00:46:30.519 --> 00:46:35.039
And then the music, the soundtrack
is being really good. It's just

736
00:46:35.159 --> 00:46:37.119
a fun, as I described it, popcorn experience. You know, you

737
00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:42.480
don't you got to think too hard
when you're playing it. There's story stuff

738
00:46:42.519 --> 00:46:45.599
for freaks like me who want the
story stuff because it is kind of just

739
00:46:45.679 --> 00:46:50.719
an action RPG, like they're you're
just following the story of these characters.

740
00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:53.639
People think like like when Jan was
playing you know, Jam being Jan,

741
00:46:53.719 --> 00:46:57.440
he wanted to get to the gotcha. He was playing it like thinking,

742
00:46:57.519 --> 00:47:00.440
Okay, when's the when when's the
gotcha happening? When am I gonna you

743
00:47:00.480 --> 00:47:02.639
know, put money in then try
to get my wifu. It's like,

744
00:47:02.760 --> 00:47:07.039
no, there's like a whole ass
game there. It's just like when gtch

745
00:47:07.079 --> 00:47:09.480
An Impact first came out and people
just wrote it off as you know,

746
00:47:09.599 --> 00:47:13.480
Breath of the WIFU, like,
oh, this is just some random knockoff

747
00:47:13.519 --> 00:47:15.719
that is going to try to get
you with the in that pursues, and

748
00:47:15.800 --> 00:47:19.920
then they play it and it's like, oh, there's actually something here.

749
00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:22.679
The cout just did put out a
decent, you know, triple a ish

750
00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:29.119
quality game for free. And then
also over here if you want to buy

751
00:47:29.239 --> 00:47:32.119
into the whole gambling aspect, which
for the record, I don't support.

752
00:47:32.199 --> 00:47:37.480
I don't spend money on that stuff, but that's how mobile games work and

753
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:40.039
that's how they're making their money.
Yeah, kind of unavoidable in that space.

754
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:44.880
Yeah, I understanding. Its terrible, that's awful. We shouldn't condone

755
00:47:44.920 --> 00:47:47.639
these kind of things. Anyways.
If I told you guys about Disney's Larkana,

756
00:47:51.760 --> 00:47:53.119
you never know what you're gonna get. That's the exciting part. That's

757
00:47:53.119 --> 00:47:59.599
what makes it good. I'm not
a huge trading card game. Guy in

758
00:47:59.719 --> 00:48:02.920
Jen, I don't buy packs by
the singles. I need to, uh

759
00:48:04.119 --> 00:48:07.480
to play competitively. That's all I've
ever done, Sean, Which is your

760
00:48:07.559 --> 00:48:15.760
favorite of the Mahoyo Moisturizer trilogy?
The fuck are you talking about? Between

761
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:22.639
this Zendless Zone Zendless Zone zero gets
you an impact and the Train one Star

762
00:48:23.320 --> 00:48:28.800
Star Rail Yeah, uh, Star
Reil was actually really good. I put

763
00:48:28.840 --> 00:48:32.400
it down because you know, last
year was freaking crazy, but I like

764
00:48:32.480 --> 00:48:35.960
that one a lot. This this
is definitely the one for me though,

765
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:42.159
like the urban setting and just everyone
being you know some some The style just

766
00:48:42.239 --> 00:48:45.880
gets you so hard. They know
not like that. The style gets you

767
00:48:45.000 --> 00:48:50.679
so good because they know what they're
doing with those getch you myself there.

768
00:48:51.639 --> 00:48:59.119
The designs are just they know how, they know how to get people,

769
00:48:59.239 --> 00:49:01.039
they know how to pull them in
with these designs. You know, Jan's

770
00:49:01.039 --> 00:49:05.880
obsessed with his Shark Maiden Wi Fu
And yeah, you stick around for the

771
00:49:05.920 --> 00:49:09.000
game players there and it's it is
legitimately a fun game. You get in

772
00:49:09.079 --> 00:49:14.280
the flow of hacking and slashing,
switching to your gun guy, switching to

773
00:49:14.320 --> 00:49:17.239
your one, and there's just these
super flashy animations that happened the whole time.

774
00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:22.280
It's fun. Is this is this
one on PlayStation? The ways Impact?

775
00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:24.760
Was it that starter? Well that's
the thing they yeah, yeah,

776
00:49:24.800 --> 00:49:29.440
that's right. Ginst Impact did launch
on PS five Starrail actually did not.

777
00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:32.840
That's how I remember. Like my
first introduction to Ginsham was a new story

778
00:49:32.840 --> 00:49:37.079
about a guy in China who was
destroying a PS five because they were ripping

779
00:49:37.159 --> 00:49:43.800
off Breath of the Wild. Ye
right, I do remember that. Wow,

780
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:47.760
it barely plays like Breath of the
While, right yeah, before it

781
00:49:47.800 --> 00:49:52.960
came out. Yeah, speaking of
anime, what's the deal with I'm hearing

782
00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:58.400
people talk about there's an anime Mario
party? Yeah, what what's the deal?

783
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:00.840
There's been a lot of these,
which what are you talking about?

784
00:50:01.119 --> 00:50:04.440
Start a link to a YouTube video
today. It said it was out in

785
00:50:04.519 --> 00:50:06.719
like April, so it might be
out already. And I watched it.

786
00:50:06.760 --> 00:50:08.920
It straight up got hot rope jump, it's got It looks like a straight

787
00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:14.280
up Mario party, And I'm curious
they're making a Demon Slayer Mario party.

788
00:50:14.400 --> 00:50:15.559
What the hell is this? It
looks like it might have party come out.

789
00:50:15.599 --> 00:50:17.880
I'm not sure. Maybe that was
like an old trailer something came out

790
00:50:17.880 --> 00:50:22.119
on Switch. Already, multiple Devin
Slayer games are showing up on Steam,

791
00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:25.280
and I'm not sure when Mario Party
style Demon Slayer game for Nintendo, like

792
00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:30.199
it's over he Wheel or something or
what. That came out April twenty six.

793
00:50:30.440 --> 00:50:35.480
Okay, sweep the board, yes, yes, sweep the board.

794
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:38.960
Yeah. I'm going to try to
get some coach for that. That came

795
00:50:39.079 --> 00:50:45.159
up today. Oh really on Steam's
Steam. It's on Steam today right now

796
00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:47.480
with sixty bucks, so we can
if it doesn't have online play, which

797
00:50:47.519 --> 00:50:50.679
it might, but if it doesn't, we can do Steam remote play together

798
00:50:50.760 --> 00:50:52.480
to play. We should do that. I don't know. I don't know

799
00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:57.960
the characters or the anime, but
like its Mario Party, this is online

800
00:50:58.039 --> 00:51:00.000
PvP, is what it says on
Steam. All right, great, oh

801
00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:02.880
ship, we have to do that. This is perfect for us because I'm

802
00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:06.440
the only one who knows the story
of this game on this website. That's

803
00:51:06.480 --> 00:51:14.000
gonna be a big advantage. Garottee, you come in last, actually if

804
00:51:14.039 --> 00:51:17.159
any of these because Demon Slayer is
oftentimes a very serious anime about, you

805
00:51:17.199 --> 00:51:21.480
know, slaying demons that are trying
to rule the world, but it also

806
00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:24.360
does have these moments of levity,
so that if any anime was going to

807
00:51:24.400 --> 00:51:28.079
do this, I guess, is
this the one that makes sense? Sure,

808
00:51:28.559 --> 00:51:30.480
let's maybe do that like next Friday
or next week or something. I

809
00:51:30.480 --> 00:51:34.920
would love to get Churt the gang
together and do that. Yeah, sure

810
00:51:35.000 --> 00:51:38.400
that On the board, I played
a bit more concord. Dan, your

811
00:51:38.480 --> 00:51:44.920
keyboard is so loud that he's the
one I was writing down. Play anime

812
00:51:45.079 --> 00:51:50.039
Mario party next week. Yeah,
right, there we go. Yeah,

813
00:51:51.079 --> 00:51:54.639
I played a bit more concord yesterday
during the day before the thing shut down,

814
00:51:54.760 --> 00:51:57.320
they extended a little bit. I'm
like, Okay, I guess I

815
00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:00.280
should play a little bit more.
And I did find a character that I

816
00:52:00.599 --> 00:52:04.840
was more that more clicked with me
than any of the other ones had before.

817
00:52:04.920 --> 00:52:07.480
It was the Knife Lady, which
does give because if you're especially if

818
00:52:07.480 --> 00:52:14.280
you're not communicating yeah knife Fou,
if you're not communicating with your team,

819
00:52:14.360 --> 00:52:16.800
which you might not be if you're
randomly matchmaking, this is a good one

820
00:52:16.880 --> 00:52:21.320
because she's supposed to be a lone
wolf. She can crouch and see through

821
00:52:21.440 --> 00:52:23.519
walls, and she has knives so
she can like and she has a pretty

822
00:52:23.519 --> 00:52:27.800
good moment movement, so you can
get around behind people. So I was

823
00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:30.360
I was doing a lot of that
and it felt really good. And she

824
00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:34.000
has this you know, kind of
leap stab attack that you could do that

825
00:52:34.079 --> 00:52:37.840
felt pretty good, and yet it's
like just pretty good. None of it

826
00:52:38.039 --> 00:52:42.199
still really clicked with me where I'm
like, oh, this is super fun.

827
00:52:42.599 --> 00:52:46.239
I think the game is. It's
fine enough. Had it come out

828
00:52:46.440 --> 00:52:50.360
several years ago and also was free
to play, I think it would stand

829
00:52:50.400 --> 00:52:52.559
a much better chance with me personally, But as it stands right now,

830
00:52:52.599 --> 00:52:54.960
it's like, I think this game
is solid in a lot of ways.

831
00:52:55.320 --> 00:52:58.960
It's I don't love the way it
feels, but I'm also at a point

832
00:52:59.000 --> 00:53:01.320
now where I don't hate the way
it feels. Uh but it's just not

833
00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:05.599
winning me over to the point where
I can imagine being like, let's let's

834
00:53:05.599 --> 00:53:07.800
set up a game night to play
Concord. I just don't have that inside

835
00:53:07.880 --> 00:53:12.039
me for this game. Yeah,
I want to try it. I didn't

836
00:53:12.079 --> 00:53:15.440
do the uh Close beta because I
don't want to play it on PlayStation.

837
00:53:15.519 --> 00:53:17.159
I'm not going to pre order it
so I can play on PC. Open

838
00:53:17.199 --> 00:53:21.599
Beta starts soon, I think on
the nineteen, so I'll check it out

839
00:53:22.199 --> 00:53:24.960
there because like, I man like, I had so much fun with Overwatch

840
00:53:25.039 --> 00:53:28.119
back in the day, and I
really do just feel like I can't go

841
00:53:28.280 --> 00:53:30.039
back to that. I don't really
want to. I don't think it would

842
00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:35.039
feel good too. So like one
of these could hit that would be great.

843
00:53:35.239 --> 00:53:37.880
I don't really know if Concord's going
to be that, but I'll give

844
00:53:37.880 --> 00:53:44.199
it a shot. Yeah, there
is another open beta next weekend and we'll

845
00:53:44.199 --> 00:53:46.199
see. Might maybe I'll play a
little bit more, but now I got

846
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:49.199
a lot of other stuff on my
plate, so I'm not sure. And

847
00:53:49.320 --> 00:53:52.280
and this game, you know,
out in like a couple of weeks now,

848
00:53:52.360 --> 00:53:54.000
right, it's the beginning of August
for this one to your schedule though,

849
00:53:54.000 --> 00:53:58.760
because tomorrow is ANYS World Championships.
Oh yeah, no, that is

850
00:53:59.159 --> 00:54:01.960
the rest of my Yes, absolutely, I cannot wait. I'm like losing

851
00:54:02.039 --> 00:54:05.239
my mind. Were traveling this weekend, so I'm going to be in a

852
00:54:05.320 --> 00:54:07.880
hotel room and airplanes, just feversly
trying to be all of your times and

853
00:54:08.119 --> 00:54:12.719
upf will be us setting a bunch
of times this week everybody, so definitely

854
00:54:12.760 --> 00:54:15.719
tune in for that. It will
be a good time. What what what

855
00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:20.400
game do you each think you're going
to be immediately the best at Mari.

856
00:54:20.719 --> 00:54:22.800
Did you punch out? Yeah?
Do we don't such out? Oh yeah,

857
00:54:22.840 --> 00:54:28.000
yeah there's Yeah when you look up
that list of games while we're talking

858
00:54:28.000 --> 00:54:30.239
about it, but yeah, I
mean I mostly remember. I mean it's

859
00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:34.960
all the Zelda's, the Marios,
kidd Orris, uh, Kirby's Adventure,

860
00:54:35.119 --> 00:54:40.519
Balloon Fight Site Bikes and ice Climbers
in there. Yeah, Kidris and ice

861
00:54:40.559 --> 00:54:44.559
Climb. Yeah, I know right, ice Climb is Urban Champion. Uh

862
00:54:45.079 --> 00:54:49.960
no, I'm looking at it now. Also every virtual console. Yeah.

863
00:54:50.000 --> 00:54:52.400
No, punch Out kind of limited, honestly, so I hope there is

864
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:54.679
enough in this post. There's no
third party right like it, you know,

865
00:54:54.760 --> 00:54:57.719
and I get it. But boy, when I think of NYES,

866
00:54:57.840 --> 00:55:00.800
I do think of like Mega Man
and Castlevania thing to punch out. I

867
00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:02.679
mean, they don't have to have
typs. This outs weird. That's a

868
00:55:02.760 --> 00:55:07.039
weird, to be fair. I
think there's a chance they're trading this kind

869
00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:09.360
of how they've been treating their recent
sports games, where they'll do an update

870
00:55:09.400 --> 00:55:14.400
with like a new round of games
a couple of months. They also just

871
00:55:14.519 --> 00:55:17.280
add like what golf and baseball like
something. Yeah, they put the lost

872
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:21.760
levels in there. That's gonna suck. Star Tropics. What the hell where

873
00:55:21.840 --> 00:55:24.360
is it? But yes, that
will be the rest of my week.

874
00:55:24.440 --> 00:55:29.079
Honestly, I cannot wait. In
the meantime, I've been playing E Sports

875
00:55:29.119 --> 00:55:34.119
college football, which is a lot
of fun. They I think they nailed

876
00:55:34.199 --> 00:55:37.119
what I want from the college football
experience game, which is it needs to

877
00:55:37.159 --> 00:55:42.280
feel really atmospheric, because if people
don't watch college football. The thing about

878
00:55:42.320 --> 00:55:46.960
it's just it is brimming with excitement
from the stands, from the band,

879
00:55:49.000 --> 00:55:52.639
the just it feels majestic in a
lot of ways, and the game does

880
00:55:52.679 --> 00:55:57.400
a pretty good job of capturing that. And then the product on the field

881
00:55:57.719 --> 00:56:00.239
is also a little bit different than
the NFL, where everyone is so skilled

882
00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:05.000
in the NFL that there's very few
mistakes made, and if our mistakes made,

883
00:56:05.039 --> 00:56:08.000
it is they're very slight, or
it just doesn't feel like anything can

884
00:56:08.039 --> 00:56:12.519
happen in an NFL game at any
moment. In the college football game,

885
00:56:12.559 --> 00:56:15.000
it does feel that way, and
that comes across as well to the point

886
00:56:15.000 --> 00:56:17.320
where, like in the old game, there is just a lateral button where

887
00:56:17.360 --> 00:56:21.440
you can lateral it at any time
right there on l one, and you

888
00:56:21.480 --> 00:56:23.119
know there's been a lot of matins
where I don't think that's necessarily the case.

889
00:56:24.320 --> 00:56:29.320
And then the athleticism where you know
you are not necessarily as skilled as

890
00:56:29.360 --> 00:56:34.000
a team, but your quarterback probably
can run really well and at any moment

891
00:56:34.079 --> 00:56:36.639
you could just you know, tuck
it down and start running and feel like

892
00:56:36.719 --> 00:56:39.039
you can juke anyone. That stuff
is very good as well. So I'm

893
00:56:39.079 --> 00:56:42.679
enjoying Is that a newiest thing in
football? Because I feel like when I

894
00:56:42.800 --> 00:56:45.840
was a kid, no quarterback could
ever run, and then Michael Vick came

895
00:56:45.960 --> 00:56:49.280
along, and now every quarterback can
run like crazy. Yeah, I mean

896
00:56:49.280 --> 00:56:53.519
it's definitely it's newish, for sure, but it's much more popular in college

897
00:56:53.559 --> 00:56:57.559
football than in the NFL, for
sure. And then in the NFL now

898
00:56:57.639 --> 00:57:00.920
it's catching on where there's a lot
of guys that can be dual threats,

899
00:57:00.119 --> 00:57:04.280
and that well, that did start
with Michael Vick. Absolutely, I assume

900
00:57:04.320 --> 00:57:07.119
not. But does the game have
like a persona style mode where you get

901
00:57:07.159 --> 00:57:10.280
you at the go to school during
the day, and like your relationships impact

902
00:57:10.320 --> 00:57:13.239
how you do and to feel like, oh, maybe your girlfriend broke up

903
00:57:13.280 --> 00:57:17.440
with you and that now you're gonna
be there's literally Mike, are you are

904
00:57:17.480 --> 00:57:22.760
you referencing the meme that went around, because literally that does happen. So

905
00:57:22.960 --> 00:57:25.079
there. I have no idea.
I know very little about this game,

906
00:57:25.159 --> 00:57:29.119
Jeff, I promise you in the
Creative Player, there's a creative player thing.

907
00:57:29.239 --> 00:57:31.320
I haven't done this yet, so
but I've seen this where someone's like,

908
00:57:31.880 --> 00:57:35.880
uh, you're doing a creative Player
and one of your friends text you

909
00:57:36.000 --> 00:57:38.199
and says, Buddies, my girlfriend
just broke up with me. Can we

910
00:57:38.280 --> 00:57:40.960
have a boys night? And like
you got to go spend time with them

911
00:57:42.000 --> 00:57:44.679
to keep you like your team a
rale high or something like that. So

912
00:57:45.159 --> 00:57:49.519
yeah, that's there, That's what
the boys. Let's do it with the

913
00:57:49.599 --> 00:57:52.760
boys. Thatt's backwards, Let's go
how far? It's Uh, it gets

914
00:57:52.840 --> 00:57:57.320
my my biggest issue personally, although
I don't know how much of an issue

915
00:57:57.360 --> 00:58:00.199
it's going to be for the get
this game's audience. Where the two offline

916
00:58:00.239 --> 00:58:04.559
modes are Dynasty, which is the
mode that I think most people really like

917
00:58:04.639 --> 00:58:07.960
from these games, and keep them
want that's what they wanted in this so

918
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:10.840
they're getting that. But Dynasty,
you are recruiting and you are worried about

919
00:58:10.840 --> 00:58:15.079
the Transfer Portal, which is this
time where players from your team if they're

920
00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:17.039
unhappy, can declare, hey,
I'm going to transfer, and then another

921
00:58:17.079 --> 00:58:21.480
school can come and swoop them away. This super portal, yes, it's

922
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:25.000
it is menacing now. It's like
kind of a weird thing in college football.

923
00:58:25.000 --> 00:58:30.199
That's kind of making it feel very
different. But I don'twas have the

924
00:58:30.280 --> 00:58:34.920
transportal. I don't want to think, yes, the hospital for transporting.

925
00:58:34.960 --> 00:58:37.599
I don't want to think about that
stuff too much because it's like, oh,

926
00:58:37.639 --> 00:58:38.960
I got all these players, and
now I've got a bunch of like,

927
00:58:39.159 --> 00:58:43.440
you know, computer generated players that
I'm recruiting, and I just don't

928
00:58:43.440 --> 00:58:45.920
get too excited about that. But
that's a big part of the Dynasty mode.

929
00:58:46.000 --> 00:58:50.800
Then the other one is just to
create a player mode, and I'm

930
00:58:50.880 --> 00:58:53.239
like, I think I'm looking for
something that is a bit more lightweight where

931
00:58:53.679 --> 00:58:58.280
I can just start the season and
my goal is to win the national championship

932
00:58:58.320 --> 00:59:01.119
with the current football team that I'm
a fan of, and the only real

933
00:59:01.199 --> 00:59:06.360
way to do that is to I
suppose maybe you can go to the Creator

934
00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:07.800
player mode and that would have that. Again, I haven't played with that

935
00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:09.639
too much, but Dynasty it's like, no, you're gonna have to deal

936
00:59:09.679 --> 00:59:13.519
with recruiting and sort of just minimize
it, put in the background and not

937
00:59:13.679 --> 00:59:15.079
care if you're not doing good at
recruiting because you're only going to play the

938
00:59:15.079 --> 00:59:21.400
one season. But yeah, either
way, the game is already massively successful.

939
00:59:21.519 --> 00:59:23.599
It is in early access right now
for people who pre or not didn't

940
00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:28.480
pre order but bought the one hundred
dollars edition, and Greg Miller posted last

941
00:59:28.519 --> 00:59:31.760
night that were there were six hundred
thousand people online last night playing the game,

942
00:59:32.239 --> 00:59:35.440
and so those are all people who
paid one hundred dollars for the game,

943
00:59:35.480 --> 00:59:37.159
and those are just the ones who
are online at that moment. So

944
00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:42.079
it is going to be massive.
I could probably use this right when it

945
00:59:42.119 --> 00:59:45.119
seems like that Apex Legends money is
drying out. Huh definitely. Yeah.

946
00:59:45.360 --> 00:59:47.760
And you know, so they're like, hey, a new Ultimate Team.

947
00:59:47.800 --> 00:59:52.679
The game does start with, like
before anything else, you're writing ultimate team

948
00:59:52.719 --> 00:59:54.079
for college football, and they're like, hey, you want to so you

949
00:59:54.119 --> 00:59:57.519
want to play this? And they
like make the button where you're like,

950
00:59:57.519 --> 00:59:59.039
you're like, no, I don't
want to play this. They make that

951
00:59:59.119 --> 01:00:01.559
really small and often the side and
all that stuff. But yeah, so

952
01:00:02.239 --> 01:00:07.639
I will probably play some online,
but I'm sure, I'll just get wrecked

953
01:00:07.639 --> 01:00:09.559
because I kind of played pretty people
saw yesterday. I kind of played pretty

954
01:00:09.559 --> 01:00:14.239
sloppy. Uh, And that's that's
how I enjoyed doing it, because again,

955
01:00:14.239 --> 01:00:17.159
it's college football, that's what that's
what it's there for. But going

956
01:00:17.199 --> 01:00:20.159
online, I think you have to
be a little bit more conservative, and

957
01:00:20.199 --> 01:00:22.280
I'm not necessarily looking for that experience. Boy, I like sports games.

958
01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:25.119
Okay. I don't know there's anything
I'd rather do less than play like a

959
01:00:25.239 --> 01:00:30.360
sports game with a stranger. Yeah, that's a big time commitment. I

960
01:00:30.400 --> 01:00:34.760
don't know. And it's like it's
definitely for a certain kind of person who's

961
01:00:34.840 --> 01:00:36.639
like, no, I like trash
talk, you know, I want to

962
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:44.280
be trash talk too, and I
know that exactly exactly. All Right,

963
01:00:44.440 --> 01:00:54.159
So Mike, you bought a Zoo. Huh? But you were about to

964
01:00:54.159 --> 01:00:57.800
see I was gonna like buy your
time and then you like, I muted

965
01:00:58.599 --> 01:01:00.880
microp, Yes, I bought it, Zoo. Why did you buy that

966
01:01:01.119 --> 01:01:07.760
Zoo? I did I buy that
Zoo? Frontier announced Planet Coaster too.

967
01:01:07.320 --> 01:01:10.800
I'm excited for that. I like
the first Planet Coaster quite a lot.

968
01:01:12.519 --> 01:01:15.840
But they remind me they did also
make Planet Zoo, which doesn't get talked

969
01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:17.800
about quite as much as Planet Coaster, but it's a lot of fun.

970
01:01:19.280 --> 01:01:22.719
It is basically just those tools that
they have for Planet Coaster, but it

971
01:01:22.840 --> 01:01:24.800
is, you know, we're making
a zoo instead. It's some of that

972
01:01:24.840 --> 01:01:29.519
stuff transfers over pretty literally, like
making the paths for your park and kind

973
01:01:29.559 --> 01:01:32.519
of the decorating that you can do. But like the simulation stuff here is

974
01:01:32.679 --> 01:01:37.519
very much about you know, buying
animals and making the pens and the habitats

975
01:01:37.599 --> 01:01:39.840
for them, and making sure they
have the right amount of tree coverage that

976
01:01:39.920 --> 01:01:44.679
they need and has to be trees
from their kind of specific biomes so that

977
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:47.079
they're happy, and making sure you
have the right people working in the park

978
01:01:47.199 --> 01:01:51.920
and maintaining all of these things right. So all of that theme park sim

979
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:53.599
stuff. And because of that,
maybe it feels a little bit more on

980
01:01:53.639 --> 01:01:57.440
that sim side. But you do
have the sandbox mode that you can do

981
01:01:57.480 --> 01:02:00.280
if you just wanted to like make
a zoo and you know, without any

982
01:02:00.480 --> 01:02:05.480
money restrictions worrying about the kind of
financial stuff. But I was having fun

983
01:02:05.519 --> 01:02:07.880
playing through the you know campaign where
you have the scenarios in At first it's

984
01:02:07.920 --> 01:02:10.679
kind of tutorially, but I did
the first one where it was just like

985
01:02:10.719 --> 01:02:14.840
here's a plot of land in Canada
and there's a little bit here, but

986
01:02:15.440 --> 01:02:17.320
you know, basically you're building a
zoo from scratch, and you know,

987
01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:21.280
try to have several different exhibits and
this, you know, try to make

988
01:02:21.320 --> 01:02:22.920
this much money, right, Yeah, And I was having a great time.

989
01:02:23.039 --> 01:02:27.960
I you know, do enjoy these
games every now and then. It

990
01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:30.239
was fun making my zoo. You
can do things like put the camera on

991
01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:34.079
your animals, just kind of follow
them around. I had a hard time

992
01:02:34.119 --> 01:02:37.719
with education. My education rating was
bad, so I kept trying to like

993
01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:42.519
put up more like billboards with the
Youngstown States. So yeah, it's hard.

994
01:02:42.920 --> 01:02:44.800
You know, It's like, okay, I got to tell people more

995
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:47.920
about the forestation and whatnot, Like
you put like speakers in your part that

996
01:02:49.079 --> 01:02:52.039
tell them about the animals they're looking
at. You gotta hire people to go

997
01:02:52.159 --> 01:02:55.280
around. You couldn't even like build
whole stands and have like a show of

998
01:02:55.400 --> 01:02:59.760
some kind, and that's intimidating.
But I didn't quite dive into that.

999
01:03:00.079 --> 01:03:02.800
There's a lot there. There's a
ton of death into the experience, right,

1000
01:03:02.880 --> 01:03:07.880
And I probably played six seven hours
just doing the kind of the tutorial

1001
01:03:07.880 --> 01:03:10.480
and then this first real campaign.
She was like the simple way of explaining

1002
01:03:10.559 --> 01:03:15.079
that, it's like it is planet
coaster, but without designing coasters, or

1003
01:03:15.320 --> 01:03:21.519
or he's designing like a lion entrapment
as complicated as designing a roller coaster.

1004
01:03:22.079 --> 01:03:24.800
Maybe it's it's pretty different, right, And again, I think the management

1005
01:03:24.840 --> 01:03:29.960
stuff of it, it feels more
important here, right, like like looking

1006
01:03:30.039 --> 01:03:31.400
into at the needs of the line
and things like that. Did you ever

1007
01:03:31.519 --> 01:03:38.760
play Frontier Developments Jurassic World games?
Actually, yeah, because I think they

1008
01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:43.519
actually get evolution one first, and
that's like that is kind of similar.

1009
01:03:43.599 --> 01:03:45.280
It's a similar thing, okay,
Right, It's like, okay, making

1010
01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:49.840
sure we have the stuff to make
these animals happy and making sure the guests

1011
01:03:49.920 --> 01:03:52.519
can see them and all stuff.
And there is also like make sure the

1012
01:03:52.599 --> 01:03:55.519
walls are are high enough and make
sure that you know, yeah, you're

1013
01:03:55.599 --> 01:04:00.199
maintaining the walls because the animals can
get out and that's a problem. So

1014
01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:02.559
you know, there's it's kind of
you're spinning a lot of plates and you're

1015
01:04:02.599 --> 01:04:08.159
making sure everything's going well while also
trying to expand the park while the complexity

1016
01:04:08.280 --> 01:04:13.079
keeps building and building. Right,
Okay, it's relaxing. It's a good

1017
01:04:13.119 --> 01:04:15.599
time. Yeah. The Planet Coaster
too, is that the one that has

1018
01:04:15.639 --> 01:04:18.519
the water parks. Water parks is
like the big new feature. It sounds

1019
01:04:18.559 --> 01:04:21.280
so exciting to me for some reason, Like I'm like, I would love

1020
01:04:21.360 --> 01:04:25.360
to design a water slide. Yeah, it looks great. It looks like

1021
01:04:25.480 --> 01:04:28.599
kind of like the water park can
be in your theme park like some places

1022
01:04:28.679 --> 01:04:30.960
have, so it can all be
conned. Can you make a lazy river

1023
01:04:31.039 --> 01:04:34.079
that kind of goes underneath everything?
I mean, we don't know much.

1024
01:04:34.320 --> 01:04:39.159
I would almost guarantee it right that, So I like something about that just

1025
01:04:39.239 --> 01:04:41.519
really sets me off. I'm like, yeah, that'd be great. Planet

1026
01:04:41.519 --> 01:04:45.000
Coaster one is just very good with
how much freedom you have with building things,

1027
01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:49.400
and then also how much of your
own assets you can pull into it,

1028
01:04:49.679 --> 01:04:51.960
so you can like bring in your
own music and your own kind of

1029
01:04:53.039 --> 01:04:57.239
video files for video screens. I
mean, people can do wild things in

1030
01:04:57.320 --> 01:05:00.719
Planet Coaster one. And you know
there's a whole uploading and downloading community service

1031
01:05:00.800 --> 01:05:05.440
things, so you can just you
know, hey, somebody made Peaches Castle.

1032
01:05:05.519 --> 01:05:08.719
You could just go download that and
put that into your theme park,

1033
01:05:08.880 --> 01:05:11.800
so you can start kind of building
your own little Mario Land in whatever theme

1034
01:05:11.880 --> 01:05:14.320
park you have, they get through
things like I'm gonna, you know,

1035
01:05:14.639 --> 01:05:18.199
just upload the Mario theme song,
so it kind of plays there as ambient

1036
01:05:18.320 --> 01:05:21.599
noise or for my fireworks show.
You can snacronize firework shows. There's a

1037
01:05:21.719 --> 01:05:26.400
Planet Coaster is very good if you're
like me and you really enjoyed Roller Coaster,

1038
01:05:26.559 --> 01:05:29.400
Tycoon and Tycoon two back in the
day, and maybe even three.

1039
01:05:30.039 --> 01:05:33.639
Planet Coaster is absolutely the successor to
that series. Are there like Disney mods

1040
01:05:33.719 --> 01:05:38.320
for Planet Coaster? I don't think
there's official ones, but again official,

1041
01:05:38.599 --> 01:05:44.159
Yeah, the community workshop lest Disney
is like being real strict about that stuff.

1042
01:05:44.239 --> 01:05:46.840
I assume it's there, but I
don't know. Interesting all right,

1043
01:05:46.920 --> 01:05:50.800
Dan, you finally finished Hollow Night? Did you get the true ending?

1044
01:05:51.119 --> 01:05:55.360
No, I'm still working on it, so I think I'm at like ninety

1045
01:05:55.639 --> 01:05:58.800
percent. But it's like there is
a good amount after you, like beat

1046
01:05:58.800 --> 01:06:00.480
the last boss. There's a lot
of stuff you can do, and it's

1047
01:06:00.639 --> 01:06:06.000
just like it's not the most easily
googleable game because it's like it doesn't track

1048
01:06:06.079 --> 01:06:09.719
every little thing. It doesn't show
you everything on the map, so it's

1049
01:06:09.719 --> 01:06:12.199
a lot of like looking at maps
online being like, Okay, I don't

1050
01:06:12.199 --> 01:06:14.760
think I've got that charm. I
don't think I've done there. I haven't

1051
01:06:14.800 --> 01:06:17.880
beat this Colisseum thing. So the
discovery aspect of it is really good,

1052
01:06:18.039 --> 01:06:20.960
and like, I think it's pretty
cool that I beat the game, and

1053
01:06:21.000 --> 01:06:24.440
I'm you know, I've probably gone
five ten hours past that. I'm still

1054
01:06:24.440 --> 01:06:27.480
trying to kind of mop everything up. It's an incredible steam Deck game,

1055
01:06:27.840 --> 01:06:30.639
of course, so you know,
with all the time in the car and

1056
01:06:30.719 --> 01:06:33.360
everything going to and from Oklahoma and
all that, got some good time in

1057
01:06:33.480 --> 01:06:36.760
this weekend on it. But yeah, just again to say I beat it.

1058
01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:40.400
You know, probably gonna keep playing
a little bit here and there to

1059
01:06:40.559 --> 01:06:43.920
finish it off. But yeah,
fantastic game, and I'm glad that.

1060
01:06:44.599 --> 01:06:46.000
I'm sure Soak Song is pretty far
along and I'll get to just hop right

1061
01:06:46.039 --> 01:06:50.320
into it afterwards. Yeah, yeah, exactly, Yeah, I remember,

1062
01:06:50.800 --> 01:06:55.519
I think the big fun things to
do obviously getting the True Ending, which

1063
01:06:55.639 --> 01:06:58.840
is just like a couple of items
you need to sort of find somewhere to

1064
01:06:58.960 --> 01:07:02.800
unlock that I believe leave. And
then there's the Dark Troop, which was

1065
01:07:02.920 --> 01:07:08.159
like DALC that's an optional boss that's
very difficult but very fun. And then

1066
01:07:08.239 --> 01:07:11.679
yeah, that Colisseum, the last
wave of the Colisseum is very difficult about

1067
01:07:11.679 --> 01:07:15.280
that because I have the most powerful
nail now, so it's fairly easy for

1068
01:07:15.320 --> 01:07:18.519
me to beat things now. Yeah. Yeah, oh it's a good game.

1069
01:07:18.920 --> 01:07:24.280
You have you felt shamed into going
back yet now? Yes? Absolutely?

1070
01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:27.159
Oh I feel the shame. I
haven't done it yet. I was

1071
01:07:27.239 --> 01:07:29.559
debating, like s to do that
or Dark Souls, and then you start

1072
01:07:29.599 --> 01:07:31.199
playing Dark Soul, so it's your
fault. Yeah, that's fair. Usually

1073
01:07:31.320 --> 01:07:36.000
is Monkeyball multiplayer? You played some
of this, Dan, how'd you find

1074
01:07:36.039 --> 01:07:39.920
it? So? Also, while
I was back in town, I stayed

1075
01:07:39.920 --> 01:07:43.559
at Kala's one night and my sister
Katie also came over, and so we

1076
01:07:43.599 --> 01:07:46.760
played some multiplayer games and we tried
some of the like you know, race

1077
01:07:46.880 --> 01:07:50.159
stuff in the Banana Collection and stuff
like that, and you know, it

1078
01:07:50.280 --> 01:07:53.360
wasn't really hitting for us that much. I know, we did a little

1079
01:07:53.360 --> 01:07:55.280
bit of Summer Games Fest and we
thought like, oh, well, we'll

1080
01:07:55.280 --> 01:07:57.480
play a bunch of this, but
like I wanted more like Monkey Target,

1081
01:07:57.639 --> 01:08:00.000
like the box and stuff, all
that darts, all the weird stuff.

1082
01:08:00.400 --> 01:08:02.079
It's mostly like a bunch of race
and collection type stuff, and we weren't

1083
01:08:02.079 --> 01:08:05.679
super hot into that, but we
found this mode that we absolutely love that

1084
01:08:05.679 --> 01:08:09.320
I'm gonna recommend to anyone, especially
locally. I don't know if you can

1085
01:08:09.360 --> 01:08:13.320
do it online or not, but
just do the Story mode multiplayer. It's

1086
01:08:13.360 --> 01:08:16.800
split screen and you can turn collision
on or off. So at first we

1087
01:08:16.880 --> 01:08:19.199
started it from the very first level
and it's like, Okay, we're just

1088
01:08:19.199 --> 01:08:21.119
gonna fuck with each other. We're
gonna kock each other off, we're gonna

1089
01:08:21.199 --> 01:08:25.119
race to the end and stuff like
that. But very quickly you realize like,

1090
01:08:25.199 --> 01:08:28.279
Okay, this game gets hard and
you're gonna need to kind of like

1091
01:08:28.479 --> 01:08:31.000
not necessarily work together because you're all
in separate balls. But you're not gonna

1092
01:08:31.000 --> 01:08:33.560
be able to actively fuck with each
other and get anywhere. You're gonna die

1093
01:08:33.560 --> 01:08:36.039
a million times. So it's like, wait, but if you could collide

1094
01:08:36.079 --> 01:08:42.000
with each other, is there just
one plane of existence that you're all controlling

1095
01:08:42.079 --> 01:08:45.239
together? I mean me, moving
through the stage isn't like tilting the stage

1096
01:08:45.279 --> 01:08:48.199
for others. Everyone seems to have
their own, but like, your balls

1097
01:08:48.239 --> 01:08:50.560
were knocked in each other, so
you can like, oh, you can

1098
01:08:50.600 --> 01:08:55.039
do a spindash and accidentally clip someone
and some them flying off. So even

1099
01:08:55.079 --> 01:08:57.159
when we're all trying to like okay, Kayla, you go okay, then

1100
01:08:57.159 --> 01:08:58.840
I'm gonna go, oh shit,
she fell. Okay, Katie, you're

1101
01:08:58.840 --> 01:09:00.399
the only one to lie, only
one you have to finish to go to

1102
01:09:00.479 --> 01:09:05.319
the next level. So the entire
story mode multiplayer like that, and like

1103
01:09:05.640 --> 01:09:08.640
we thought we would just try it
out, and we went through like half

1104
01:09:08.720 --> 01:09:12.239
the game that way and it was
super okay. Yeah, so it was

1105
01:09:12.279 --> 01:09:15.640
an on story mode multiplayer. I
would I would highly recommend for sure.

1106
01:09:15.079 --> 01:09:19.199
The secret monkey ball if anyone didn't
know, is that you're not actually controlling

1107
01:09:19.239 --> 01:09:24.000
the stage or anything like that.
You're controlling the gravity of your individual monkey

1108
01:09:24.119 --> 01:09:27.840
ball. So that's why multiplayer.
Yeah, it's all a camera trick where

1109
01:09:27.840 --> 01:09:29.800
it tellts the camera while you do
it to make you look like that.

1110
01:09:30.159 --> 01:09:34.640
That's why multiplayer could work. You're
affecting your own monkey and interesting their own

1111
01:09:34.680 --> 01:09:38.159
monkey boy. Jeff, don't you
feel stupid now? Yeah, I'm a

1112
01:09:39.000 --> 01:09:43.640
yeah, I don't know that Sean
stuff. Huh. We got to do

1113
01:09:43.720 --> 01:09:46.399
something about this guy. Yeah,
Okay, well that that sounds cool.

1114
01:09:46.520 --> 01:09:48.720
Weld. Still I still want to
play monkey ball on the site at some

1115
01:09:48.840 --> 01:09:51.640
point it might be hard this week
with everyone gone, and it's kind of

1116
01:09:51.720 --> 01:10:00.399
like championships and parties and a party. I played shoot Mario Party while home.

1117
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:04.640
Yes, okay, how'd that go? Well? So okay, normally

1118
01:10:04.880 --> 01:10:09.880
the crew when I go home now
for Mario Party is me, my sisters,

1119
01:10:10.319 --> 01:10:15.159
and my brother in law. And
so you know, Bok was there.

1120
01:10:15.520 --> 01:10:18.159
But Bac, I think, I
will say, has a active disdain

1121
01:10:18.359 --> 01:10:26.000
for the act of playing Mario Party, so that she didn't play it that

1122
01:10:26.199 --> 01:10:30.880
much. You immediately realizes someone who
very much knows that analyzed video games saw

1123
01:10:30.920 --> 01:10:31.960
it like once, it was like, oh, this is complete horseshit.

1124
01:10:33.680 --> 01:10:36.439
We decided, okay, so here, we're not going to force Bunk to

1125
01:10:36.479 --> 01:10:41.640
play. But there's a new member
of the family that I needed to incorporate

1126
01:10:41.680 --> 01:10:45.760
into the Mario Party, you know, family tradition here. So she's five

1127
01:10:45.920 --> 01:10:50.960
weeks old, yeah, five weeks
old, my niece Eva, and so

1128
01:10:51.159 --> 01:10:56.079
we legitimately made her a human character. We did random and we're like,

1129
01:10:56.119 --> 01:10:58.000
hey, Ava, this is who
you're going to be for the rest of

1130
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:00.439
your life, just so you know
whatever it randomizes, Like, you know,

1131
01:11:00.680 --> 01:11:05.520
I'm always wa Luigi. Kayla is
always Luigi, Katie's Yoshi, and

1132
01:11:05.920 --> 01:11:10.119
okay, we randomized she got Mario, so that means she's she can play

1133
01:11:10.119 --> 01:11:15.159
all the old ones now as Mario. She's yes. So the rule was

1134
01:11:15.600 --> 01:11:18.399
we had Bank was playing probably a
better game on her Steam deck, and

1135
01:11:19.159 --> 01:11:23.279
we had the joy Con next to
her, so Bank was kind of surrogate

1136
01:11:23.359 --> 01:11:26.560
playing for Ava since the five week
old can't you know, press the buttons

1137
01:11:26.600 --> 01:11:30.800
when needed. But the rules were
though she is a baby, Ava is

1138
01:11:30.960 --> 01:11:35.319
so like all she we decided all
she can do is hit a so no

1139
01:11:35.760 --> 01:11:40.720
thinking is allowed. Literally, the
only thing that could happen is when we

1140
01:11:40.840 --> 01:11:43.680
said, like Ava, roll the
dice, Bank would hit the button.

1141
01:11:44.119 --> 01:11:47.319
So that also meant when on like
item shops and things like that, you

1142
01:11:47.399 --> 01:11:49.960
can't make any decisions. If you
get to a pork in the road,

1143
01:11:50.039 --> 01:11:55.119
you can't decide left or right.
You literally can only hit a no mini

1144
01:11:55.199 --> 01:11:59.359
game participation, know anything, She
just stood there. Let's see that seems

1145
01:11:59.359 --> 01:12:00.680
so unfair. Then she probably wouldn't
have a chance of doing well in the

1146
01:12:00.720 --> 01:12:03.439
game, because that made this is
this game of skill. She was in

1147
01:12:03.560 --> 01:12:09.880
first place for a dude chunk of
the late game for at least like seven

1148
01:12:09.960 --> 01:12:13.680
or eight turns she was in first
place. Only now this is this was

1149
01:12:13.760 --> 01:12:15.920
amazing to us. Katie, my
sister has been playing with us for our

1150
01:12:16.119 --> 01:12:21.159
entire lives. She never won once
until like she was like twenty seven.

1151
01:12:21.680 --> 01:12:25.319
This was like four years ago,
and she was like oh. She cried.

1152
01:12:25.399 --> 01:12:27.319
She was like, oh my,
I can't believe I won. I've

1153
01:12:27.439 --> 01:12:30.840
never won me and Kayla always fucked
her over so bad, and she went

1154
01:12:31.880 --> 01:12:38.119
her five week old daughter almost beat
her. And the only reason she didn't

1155
01:12:38.399 --> 01:12:42.359
is because we had to hit only
a at item shops. Whenever we went

1156
01:12:42.399 --> 01:12:45.399
there, she had to buy a
skeleton key for four coins because it was

1157
01:12:45.439 --> 01:12:46.000
the first one that popped up.
She was like, do you want to

1158
01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:48.560
buy an item a? Yes,
why do you want to buy a skeleton

1159
01:12:48.640 --> 01:12:51.960
key? So she was about to
buy a star on that turn, and

1160
01:12:53.119 --> 01:12:55.279
she went and she had to buy
a skeleton key, which made her like

1161
01:12:55.399 --> 01:12:59.399
one coin short. Oh my star. That would have beat her mother.

1162
01:13:00.439 --> 01:13:03.680
But she's not stupid. She she
had like ninety skeleton keys. She had

1163
01:13:03.680 --> 01:13:08.239
to keep throwing skeleton keys on the
ground to get more. So if she

1164
01:13:08.319 --> 01:13:10.960
had not had to buy all those
skeleton keys, she would have beat her

1165
01:13:11.039 --> 01:13:15.319
mother. The five week old infant. It's incredible. I've been dying to

1166
01:13:15.359 --> 01:13:18.560
ask you about this since Society tweet
Dan, how was she in the lead?

1167
01:13:18.920 --> 01:13:23.399
Wow? What? Well, there
was a chance time that went really

1168
01:13:23.479 --> 01:13:27.119
bad and like some of Kyla stars
went to her. So here's the thing.

1169
01:13:27.640 --> 01:13:30.079
This was eye opening to me as
someone who's been playing Mario Party a

1170
01:13:30.119 --> 01:13:33.159
long time. I've never seen the
horseshit so blatantly happen where it's like,

1171
01:13:33.600 --> 01:13:36.800
so she would like not be winning
any mini games or anything, obviously,

1172
01:13:36.840 --> 01:13:40.359
you know, she's just standing there. She did better than you would expect,

1173
01:13:41.199 --> 01:13:48.279
but I probably do pretty well by
not playing, Like yeah, yeah,

1174
01:13:48.520 --> 01:13:50.920
Kayla would like get a star because
she would like, you know,

1175
01:13:51.079 --> 01:13:54.800
seek it out and go to the
star place, buy the star. And

1176
01:13:54.960 --> 01:13:59.960
then like once Ava started falling,
falling behind a good amount, Oh where's

1177
01:14:00.119 --> 01:14:02.279
the star gonna go? Oh it's
two spaces in front of Mario. Weird,

1178
01:14:02.800 --> 01:14:06.319
Like, hey, that's bullshit.
They're just doing that because she's losing.

1179
01:14:08.000 --> 01:14:12.119
But what happened and she would get
enough coins just through horses. I

1180
01:14:12.159 --> 01:14:15.520
don't know how many times the communist
bowser shit happened, and like all of

1181
01:14:15.600 --> 01:14:17.239
my one hundred and twenty coins,
suddenly I have to give a bunch to

1182
01:14:17.279 --> 01:14:20.760
the fucking baby, and now the
baby has sixty coins and can now buy

1183
01:14:20.880 --> 01:14:25.560
some fucking stars. So revolution,
Yeah, yeah suck if you're if you're

1184
01:14:25.560 --> 01:14:28.000
doing a two B two though,
you get stuck with the baby who kid.

1185
01:14:28.239 --> 01:14:30.680
That happened several times and it was
hilarious. There was somewhere you could

1186
01:14:30.720 --> 01:14:32.199
win. There's like the bob sled
race where it's like, all right,

1187
01:14:32.319 --> 01:14:35.039
if I can just turn real hard
here, we're not gonnall out of the

1188
01:14:35.119 --> 01:14:38.359
pit, or the one where you're
doing the like mind cart things. So

1189
01:14:38.439 --> 01:14:42.399
there are ones where the baby could
do all right. But yeah, I

1190
01:14:42.560 --> 01:14:45.319
literally would have beat her mother if
not for the skeleton keys she had to

1191
01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:49.000
keep buying. Who did win those
full thing? It was probably me?

1192
01:14:50.239 --> 01:15:00.359
Uh, congratulations, Kala. Yeah
that's about right. It was fun though,

1193
01:15:00.399 --> 01:15:01.560
So yeah, it's uh, we'll
keep doing that every time and we'll

1194
01:15:01.560 --> 01:15:05.840
see how it goes as she gets
older and can think more. It's weird

1195
01:15:05.920 --> 01:15:10.359
that it's the Bowser Revolution is named
after the Communist Revolution, Like I get

1196
01:15:10.439 --> 01:15:13.439
the joke that like they're giving everyone
the same amount of money, but wasn't

1197
01:15:13.439 --> 01:15:16.920
the Communist Revolution kind of like bloody
and deadly and stuff Nicholas the Session and

1198
01:15:16.920 --> 01:15:24.199
the Bolsheviks and all that stuff.
Yeah, exactly a pretty pretty deadly Dan.

1199
01:15:24.279 --> 01:15:26.880
If you ever actually played like Mario
Party with an actual child, like

1200
01:15:27.000 --> 01:15:30.079
like a five year old or like
a I mean with my sisters, but

1201
01:15:30.199 --> 01:15:32.359
when I was also pretty much a
kid, yeah, they they do not

1202
01:15:32.520 --> 01:15:36.760
handle it well. No, they
cry a lot. They get cry.

1203
01:15:36.840 --> 01:15:42.680
So every time we play Mario where
I just play against I guess you're the

1204
01:15:42.680 --> 01:15:45.000
only children. Can we do a
stream where I just play Mario Party against

1205
01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:48.199
your children and I'm mean to them? I have to ask my wife.

1206
01:15:48.239 --> 01:15:51.399
Folks, they're gonna cry. That's
good. And also Backlar's kid, but

1207
01:15:51.479 --> 01:15:57.560
back Lar's kid fucking sucks. He
would be annoying. Probably I'm lovably annoying

1208
01:15:57.840 --> 01:16:01.439
Backlar's kids. Shoot shuts. Okay, Hey, the reviews are in on

1209
01:16:01.640 --> 01:16:06.119
Dan Record. Dan Rekert says,
lovably annoying. You love me? No

1210
01:16:06.199 --> 01:16:15.159
one loves him. Pull on the
chat here, Dan or Dib like kids

1211
01:16:15.239 --> 01:16:25.760
like age five would laugh in their
face like one of those wired video like

1212
01:16:25.840 --> 01:16:28.600
white rooms. Just three kids.
And then suddenly Dan Record walks in,

1213
01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:32.600
Wait, what's that I can't wait
to see dad. To do with the

1214
01:16:32.640 --> 01:16:34.880
fact that, like, a kid
could be winning and something goes wrong and

1215
01:16:34.920 --> 01:16:42.159
they still cry. Speaking of a
kid could be winning, DIB overwhelmingly more

1216
01:16:42.199 --> 01:16:45.520
popular than Dan. Can't imagine why
I don't see it? Damn Would it

1217
01:16:45.720 --> 01:16:48.279
bother you that the kids were crying
because they were losing the game. If

1218
01:16:48.319 --> 01:16:51.119
they were strangers or someone else's kids, No, I mean if it was

1219
01:16:51.199 --> 01:16:56.079
like I got you know, I
got a news, I got neppiers.

1220
01:16:56.119 --> 01:16:58.560
Now, I wouldn't want to see
them cry. They're related to share them,

1221
01:16:58.600 --> 01:17:00.560
they're family, but like like I
don't know, like Grub, look,

1222
01:17:00.640 --> 01:17:03.520
I well, I get it,
Grub. I don't want to make

1223
01:17:03.560 --> 01:17:08.760
your kids right strangers that I don't
know at all. I think it would

1224
01:17:08.800 --> 01:17:12.439
be very funny if they were shoot
upset at how I was playing Mario Party

1225
01:17:12.479 --> 01:17:15.960
against them. Parents should bring their
random unknown choulder to you for punishment.

1226
01:17:16.039 --> 01:17:21.239
Basically, yes, yes, and
Mario Party jee twenty player me against nineteen

1227
01:17:21.359 --> 01:17:26.920
children and I'm bereding the entire time. Let's right there. I saw a

1228
01:17:27.000 --> 01:17:33.920
feature Backlark. We need to be
able to pay for twenty Kids'm a packet

1229
01:17:33.960 --> 01:17:38.560
of gushers or something there is.
Yeah, that's that's how you get around

1230
01:17:38.560 --> 01:17:43.800
the labor laws recording any of this. All right, well, how did

1231
01:17:43.800 --> 01:17:45.720
the future judges when they listen to
this? Bye? Everybody? All right,

1232
01:17:45.880 --> 01:17:49.600
next video games. We're gonna talk
about the news here after a quick

1233
01:17:49.720 --> 01:17:54.239
break to hear from maybe Jan talking
about sponsors, I don't know what happens.

1234
01:17:57.479 --> 01:18:00.920
All right, we are back and
and uh, what are you guys

1235
01:18:00.920 --> 01:18:02.439
getting on Prime Day? Mike,
you're gonna you're gonna go through the purchase

1236
01:18:02.479 --> 01:18:08.439
of getting a new microphone. I
mean, well, I sound better I

1237
01:18:08.640 --> 01:18:11.319
listen. I think I don't think
there's any issues with how you sound.

1238
01:18:11.600 --> 01:18:15.239
No one's ever complained about it.
It does sound fine. Nobody ever I

1239
01:18:15.920 --> 01:18:18.720
people complain about how I sound.
I don't think they meet my mic quality.

1240
01:18:19.279 --> 01:18:23.119
Well, yeah, it wouldn't be
a huge step up. But if

1241
01:18:23.159 --> 01:18:27.319
you're having that's like, yeah,
you don't need it, but it would

1242
01:18:27.359 --> 01:18:29.800
be nice to have you. I'm
gonna ask chat if I need a new

1243
01:18:29.880 --> 01:18:33.039
microphone. I'll start. I kind
of feel like I'm cheating here because outside

1244
01:18:33.039 --> 01:18:38.159
of there's a bunch of four K
blu rays on Prime Day actually buying a

1245
01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:41.159
lot of liquid death. Now,
oh, what the hell, Dan,

1246
01:18:41.920 --> 01:18:44.239
I'm sorry. No, no,
no, no, I'm sorry. I

1247
01:18:44.359 --> 01:18:48.079
could do I could do prime.
You're buying liquid death. Now I will

1248
01:18:48.119 --> 01:18:50.800
tell you it was. I'll tell
you why I never thought of it.

1249
01:18:50.880 --> 01:18:55.479
I'd say the commercials water. Well, that's what I thought too. And

1250
01:18:55.720 --> 01:19:00.800
this is not a bit of yes
it is back when you it is.

1251
01:19:00.399 --> 01:19:03.119
But I'm telling you I was on
the road trip. I was on the

1252
01:19:03.159 --> 01:19:05.840
way back. We're stopping the man
gas stations because, oh boy, you

1253
01:19:05.960 --> 01:19:10.039
want to stop at some gas stations. Have Paul Riker drive and you will

1254
01:19:10.079 --> 01:19:15.079
pee and see every gas station between
Oklahoma City and Kansas City you will stop.

1255
01:19:15.800 --> 01:19:17.840
Oh the amount of times we stopped. It is incredible that you are

1256
01:19:17.880 --> 01:19:20.800
the one completing about this like not
those second like Dan, you have no

1257
01:19:21.039 --> 01:19:25.760
no crying to stand on. It's
how often does he pee that even you

1258
01:19:26.000 --> 01:19:29.520
are annoyed at how often he peas
I mean usually like a lot of times.

1259
01:19:29.560 --> 01:19:30.840
If he if he drives me to
the airport, like a forty minute

1260
01:19:30.920 --> 01:19:35.560
drive, it'll be like he'll pee
right before. He'll pull over during the

1261
01:19:35.640 --> 01:19:38.560
thing if he finds a gas station, and a lot of times, the

1262
01:19:38.600 --> 01:19:41.479
amount of times I've seen him pull
off under a bridge on the highway to

1263
01:19:41.560 --> 01:19:44.319
pee on the side of the road
and a forty minute drive. We're talking

1264
01:19:44.399 --> 01:19:46.199
like three timesh shit, I gotta
go sign for a thing. I'll be

1265
01:19:46.279 --> 01:19:50.640
back to sorry, all right,
Yeah yeah, we'll keep a bookmark on

1266
01:19:50.800 --> 01:19:56.520
Dad's pee there. All right.
I guess most people told me that I

1267
01:19:56.600 --> 01:19:58.640
do not need a new mic,
so I'm gonna say my sign. I

1268
01:19:58.680 --> 01:20:01.600
don't think you need any you need
it. It's like, if there's an

1269
01:20:01.640 --> 01:20:05.000
issue one day, you can get
it then and again, do you want

1270
01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:08.840
to have it it becomes a problem, that's yeah, exactly, because I

1271
01:20:08.880 --> 01:20:11.640
don't think you need to spend the
money in case it becomes a problem one

1272
01:20:11.720 --> 01:20:15.000
day. That's I think it'd be
a right service. Has just bought Summer

1273
01:20:15.079 --> 01:20:19.319
Slam tickets anyway, so yeah,
yeah, exactly right. That's and that's

1274
01:20:19.359 --> 01:20:21.439
why I haven't been looking at Prime
Day because I spend a lot of money

1275
01:20:21.479 --> 01:20:24.399
on that. So I'm like,
I don't need to spend any more money.

1276
01:20:24.560 --> 01:20:28.399
But I am curious about any one
of these teleprompters. But I don't

1277
01:20:28.439 --> 01:20:30.680
do I need to know a Gatto
one or can I get like a random

1278
01:20:31.000 --> 01:20:36.359
brand on me by teleprompters. Not
so it's not another computer screen, you

1279
01:20:36.439 --> 01:20:39.039
mean, like no, no,
no, So what it is is it?

1280
01:20:39.239 --> 01:20:42.520
It's really what it is. It's
it's a device, a mechanical device

1281
01:20:42.600 --> 01:20:45.640
that has plexiglass on it that's angled
so the camera could go right through it

1282
01:20:45.720 --> 01:20:48.239
on the back and not see it, but you could see the reflection of

1283
01:20:48.279 --> 01:20:53.399
a screen, and then the software
that co pairs it with makes it reverse

1284
01:20:53.560 --> 01:20:56.920
and backwards so that when it reflects
up to you on the on the glass

1285
01:20:57.239 --> 01:20:59.840
you could read it correctly. And
then there's probably a buttons to make a

1286
01:21:00.159 --> 01:21:01.800
up and down right. No,
there's not that. So there's a camera,

1287
01:21:01.960 --> 01:21:04.800
Like I'm pointing my camera here,
I can't really see it because it's

1288
01:21:04.840 --> 01:21:09.159
behind the reflective like last thing,
the actual monitor thing is down here.

1289
01:21:09.199 --> 01:21:11.359
I can see it and it's just
kind of flipping and turning it. But

1290
01:21:11.479 --> 01:21:13.800
it's cool. It's it's got stuff
where you can just like see the twitch

1291
01:21:13.880 --> 01:21:15.439
chat and stuff like that, and
like built in things like It's I haven't

1292
01:21:15.439 --> 01:21:17.560
spent a lot of time messing with
it for like Twitch or anything yet,

1293
01:21:17.640 --> 01:21:20.159
but so far from just like zoom
calls and stuff. It's cool. But

1294
01:21:20.279 --> 01:21:26.199
liquid death So my dad peece a
lot. So we're stopping a gas station

1295
01:21:26.319 --> 01:21:30.840
and how they make with death and
listen. I was trying to find prime

1296
01:21:31.119 --> 01:21:33.760
X because I'm trying to fill out
the treasure map to become a millionaire.

1297
01:21:34.399 --> 01:21:38.640
But I'm missing the eleven piece.
So if anybody has the eleven piece,

1298
01:21:39.000 --> 01:21:45.079
split with me. You can buy
another piece of chicken nuggets. I have

1299
01:21:45.359 --> 01:21:47.960
so many of all the other map
pieces. Uh well, but we're gonna

1300
01:21:48.000 --> 01:21:51.760
cash it in for a tech tee
and doing monopoly. They're basically just doing

1301
01:21:51.960 --> 01:21:58.000
McDonald's Monopoly, and there's one in
four. There's four pieces in the world

1302
01:21:58.079 --> 01:22:00.039
of this eleven piece that I'm trying
to get me. My friends have been

1303
01:22:00.159 --> 01:22:03.199
like texting each other eight times a
day with pictures of caps, and I've

1304
01:22:03.199 --> 01:22:06.920
been filling it in on the treasure
chart. Summer of the first McDonald's Monopoly

1305
01:22:08.119 --> 01:22:13.159
was so the most important. Yes, it was so important. We didn't

1306
01:22:13.159 --> 01:22:17.319
have much going on. One of
the girls that had the security like stole

1307
01:22:17.359 --> 01:22:19.680
all the pieces in one of himself. They were like, we had O.

1308
01:22:19.840 --> 01:22:23.680
J. Simpson, we found out
Ellen was gay, then we had

1309
01:22:23.800 --> 01:22:28.600
mc Donald's all we cared about.
Yes, so thecarago happened there somewhere.

1310
01:22:28.600 --> 01:22:30.680
I don't know. They didn't have
Prime exim one of these. By the

1311
01:22:30.720 --> 01:22:31.640
way, I still love Prime.
I got a bridge full and I got

1312
01:22:31.680 --> 01:22:33.600
a bunch of Costco packs back there. I love it. But that's my

1313
01:22:33.720 --> 01:22:38.159
hydration drink. Now, that's my
I just got done with a drink or

1314
01:22:38.239 --> 01:22:42.760
a run. So this, now, this character. I saw it on

1315
01:22:42.880 --> 01:22:44.800
the shelf and I was like,
you know what I've saying, the commercials

1316
01:22:44.840 --> 01:22:45.880
and stuff. I don't know what
the big deal is. I hear people

1317
01:22:45.920 --> 01:22:48.760
talk about it and stuff, and
it's it was like mango chainsaw. And

1318
01:22:48.800 --> 01:22:50.960
I was like, all right,
I'll see what a mango chainsaw it tastes

1319
01:22:51.000 --> 01:22:55.119
like. And I tasted, and
god damn it if it doesn't taste really

1320
01:22:55.159 --> 01:22:57.159
good. I think it's been the
same thing Prime does, where it's like

1321
01:22:57.199 --> 01:23:00.560
twenty salaries flavored water. Yeah,
so this is like water millon and it's

1322
01:23:00.600 --> 01:23:02.399
like it's like Seltzer, but it's
like it's got some calories, sir,

1323
01:23:02.760 --> 01:23:08.119
I just bubbly. Well, so
I like Bubby, I like Lacroix,

1324
01:23:08.199 --> 01:23:11.199
I like all those Seltzers and everything, but those are zero calorie. I

1325
01:23:11.319 --> 01:23:14.319
think the thing is I think there's
a doctor pepper tent situation. It's like

1326
01:23:14.560 --> 01:23:18.800
ten manly calories. Uh, the
one you got, spin Drift is in

1327
01:23:18.840 --> 01:23:23.279
that ten calories. Spend Drift is
low spendrift. And again, I think

1328
01:23:23.279 --> 01:23:25.439
that's why spend Drift is one of
the better ones, is because they do

1329
01:23:25.560 --> 01:23:28.239
have some calories there, but it's
not enough to make you think like,

1330
01:23:28.600 --> 01:23:31.720
you know, you drink as more
number of calories than zero to be fair.

1331
01:23:31.880 --> 01:23:34.119
So yeah, of course it's better. These are all like twenty and

1332
01:23:34.199 --> 01:23:38.159
there is like a serious flavor to
it, and it's I bought all the

1333
01:23:38.199 --> 01:23:43.279
flavors and everything. It's it's very
good. Does it doesn't the branding make

1334
01:23:43.359 --> 01:23:46.760
you feel ashamed though, you feel
like you should be wearing ed hardy while

1335
01:23:46.800 --> 01:23:53.039
you drink. Let me read everything
on this can water. Let me read

1336
01:23:53.039 --> 01:23:55.199
the things on this can. This
is the flavor. Yeah, do you

1337
01:23:55.279 --> 01:23:58.079
have mm A clips on in the
background while you're reading this? The flavor

1338
01:23:58.199 --> 01:24:02.399
is convicted mellon in here. It's
oh my god, hang on, it

1339
01:24:02.520 --> 01:24:09.319
says this ruthless tall boy of flavored
sparkling water has a twisted plan to use

1340
01:24:09.439 --> 01:24:15.399
natural agave and exploding bubbles to murder
your thirst and recycle your soul. My

1341
01:24:15.720 --> 01:24:18.920
damnness, Danny, it might be
a doctor peppertin situation. This is the

1342
01:24:19.000 --> 01:24:26.279
most it's not for women thing I've
ever seen a woman. It would evaporate

1343
01:24:26.399 --> 01:24:30.359
immediately. I'm just can listen.
It tastes good. It tastes okay,

1344
01:24:30.720 --> 01:24:33.319
I would like taste good. I
would like to go on the record.

1345
01:24:33.520 --> 01:24:38.279
Dan, you you realize that the
base liquid death is literally just water?

1346
01:24:38.479 --> 01:24:41.960
Right? There is just nothing confused
me. So I think I did buy

1347
01:24:42.000 --> 01:24:44.159
one of those on Prime Day just
to confirm it, like this is just

1348
01:24:44.319 --> 01:24:46.880
water that's overpriced, right, which
probably will be. I did not realize

1349
01:24:46.880 --> 01:24:49.319
they had all these fun flavors and
that's where they got me. I didn't.

1350
01:24:49.319 --> 01:24:54.119
I actually didn't know that watermelon water
that tastes really good and like,

1351
01:24:54.359 --> 01:24:59.399
so like now legitimately I normally have
I normally have a couple like stories like

1352
01:24:59.520 --> 01:25:03.279
zero stories with my dinner. I
feel like this will replace that. And

1353
01:25:03.399 --> 01:25:06.640
also this is water, you know, so like that is a net positive,

1354
01:25:06.760 --> 01:25:10.319
right, like going from dietzoda to
water, like is that not a

1355
01:25:10.439 --> 01:25:14.960
net positive? I mean died soda
is also like water. No, I

1356
01:25:15.079 --> 01:25:16.319
know, but and I'm not one
of those like, oh, diet sodas

1357
01:25:16.319 --> 01:25:19.000
are terrible for you, like in
types of plans pertain rules, Yeah it's

1358
01:25:19.000 --> 01:25:23.439
the best, but this, honestly, it tastes like as good, if

1359
01:25:23.479 --> 01:25:26.359
not better than some of that.
I the only time I had liquid death,

1360
01:25:26.479 --> 01:25:30.279
I was at a Final Fantasy concert
with the Minates and I was like,

1361
01:25:30.359 --> 01:25:33.479
I got thirsty and I saw it
do for the first time. Yeah,

1362
01:25:33.640 --> 01:25:36.079
I was thirsty, and so I
was like, I'm gonna go order

1363
01:25:36.119 --> 01:25:39.159
a water and I'll pay for it. Of course, I know where I'm

1364
01:25:39.199 --> 01:25:41.319
at. I'm at a concert.
I'll get a bottle of water, and

1365
01:25:41.399 --> 01:25:44.439
they hand me this liquid death thing, and I'm like a media, I'm

1366
01:25:44.479 --> 01:25:45.279
like, they're gonna give me shit
for this. I'm gonna go back and

1367
01:25:45.319 --> 01:25:47.399
sit down with the Minates and they're
gonna give me shit, just so I

1368
01:25:47.439 --> 01:25:51.479
should say. I should say something
like diffuse it before they make fun of

1369
01:25:51.560 --> 01:25:54.560
me. And by the time I
got back to the seat, I had

1370
01:25:54.600 --> 01:25:57.960
tucked myself into it, like no, they're gonna know it's I did not

1371
01:25:58.159 --> 01:26:00.680
order a liquid death. I just
wanted to water. They go, They're

1372
01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:02.359
gonna get it, and I sat
down. I think immediately Mike's like what

1373
01:26:02.439 --> 01:26:08.960
the fuck is that I'm going to
start? I would order this at a

1374
01:26:09.039 --> 01:26:13.880
place like I'm sure. Yeah,
I'll tell you that, try it later.

1375
01:26:13.960 --> 01:26:15.359
You're gonna like it. It's good. I'll try it, of course,

1376
01:26:15.359 --> 01:26:19.119
I'll try it. How much does
the can of that cost? Dan?

1377
01:26:19.439 --> 01:26:23.199
I think at the gas station it
was like two fifty. Uh,

1378
01:26:23.720 --> 01:26:27.840
let me see the course power.
This is like what water would be like

1379
01:26:28.000 --> 01:26:32.079
in cyber Punch. Okay here an
eight pack that I got on Prime Day

1380
01:26:32.800 --> 01:26:39.760
was eleven fifteen. That's not terrible
if it's a huge, Yeah for twenty

1381
01:26:39.800 --> 01:26:44.880
four Okay. The official state water
of Idiocracy is what it feels like.

1382
01:26:45.239 --> 01:26:47.439
Yes, yes, look I giving
that to plants. Yeah, yeah,

1383
01:26:47.640 --> 01:26:50.960
I say. I saw Idiocracy once
when it first came out, and there

1384
01:26:51.000 --> 01:26:54.680
there was stuff like, uh like
awl my balls and stuff, and I

1385
01:26:54.760 --> 01:26:59.079
was like, it looks like a
watch that Yeah, absolutely, I said.

1386
01:26:59.199 --> 01:27:02.680
So normally it looks like it's like
thirteen bucks thirteen twenty five, like

1387
01:27:02.720 --> 01:27:08.039
flavored water, like you know,
a dollar something for like a good can.

1388
01:27:08.159 --> 01:27:11.039
Yeah, that's that's okay, that's
right. Those are tall boys show.

1389
01:27:11.239 --> 01:27:15.159
Come on, you looks so cool. Yeah, all right, somebody's

1390
01:27:15.159 --> 01:27:17.840
got get this show on track,
Jeff, what's the news? Where it

1391
01:27:17.960 --> 01:27:26.720
is? There we go, I'm
too busy talking about Dad team. All

1392
01:27:26.880 --> 01:27:29.600
right, I got some news for
everybody, And by that I mean it

1393
01:27:29.680 --> 01:27:30.600
was a slow news week, so
we got some headlines. Here. We'll

1394
01:27:30.600 --> 01:27:34.439
get through and whatever. A fifth
Crash Bandicoot game was in the works,

1395
01:27:34.520 --> 01:27:38.560
but not anymore. It was apparently
put on the shelf or canceled or put

1396
01:27:38.600 --> 01:27:43.039
on hold or something. Former Toys
for Bob artist Nicolas Cole claims a fifth

1397
01:27:43.079 --> 01:27:47.319
Crash Bandicoot game was canceled at the
studio the project This is actually confusion here.

1398
01:27:47.359 --> 01:27:50.640
There was another project he worked on
called Project Dragon that was separately canceled,

1399
01:27:51.359 --> 01:27:57.199
and but then Crash five was at
the works at Toys for Bob.

1400
01:27:57.560 --> 01:28:00.399
They aren't working on anymore. But
he said it would be heartbreaking to fans

1401
01:28:00.439 --> 01:28:03.760
because apparently it was something that they
would all want. This is the kind

1402
01:28:03.800 --> 01:28:08.680
of situation where they're not like cancer, there will never be us Crash five.

1403
01:28:08.800 --> 01:28:11.199
This is just like they're not going
to do a Crash five right now,

1404
01:28:11.399 --> 01:28:14.319
right right, So to remind people
like kind of the timeframe there is,

1405
01:28:14.439 --> 01:28:15.680
you know, they probably would have
had some projects they were working on

1406
01:28:16.279 --> 01:28:20.119
after Crash four, and a Crash
five makes a lot of chance, a

1407
01:28:20.239 --> 01:28:24.880
lot of sense. But it was
not too long after that where they did

1408
01:28:25.000 --> 01:28:30.760
become a call duty support studio under
the old Act Division management, right,

1409
01:28:30.920 --> 01:28:32.239
so that's what they became, and
they did, like still put out that

1410
01:28:32.479 --> 01:28:39.359
Crash Team Rumble the Most, which
was a game that they were able to

1411
01:28:39.479 --> 01:28:43.600
make with a lot of Crash four
assets, right, So you see how

1412
01:28:43.720 --> 01:28:47.640
that still was able to happen.
Probably not a very big risk. But

1413
01:28:48.479 --> 01:28:51.439
you know, once they were put
on the call of duty mill, they

1414
01:28:51.520 --> 01:28:55.279
were not going to have time to
make a Crash five, which is very

1415
01:28:55.439 --> 01:29:00.359
stupid. Crash Band into four was
amazing. Activision was made a ton of

1416
01:29:00.399 --> 01:29:04.439
money from the Crash Insane trilogy.
Crash Word did make very well. That

1417
01:29:04.600 --> 01:29:08.800
did very well. Crash War didn't
do that well, but it still sold

1418
01:29:09.159 --> 01:29:14.439
millions of copies. There was momentum
there. You should just keep making Crash

1419
01:29:14.520 --> 01:29:18.760
games every few years so you do
have something there instead of just immediately retreating

1420
01:29:18.880 --> 01:29:24.960
because the one game didn't make as
much money as you think that effort would

1421
01:29:25.439 --> 01:29:29.680
have. If there has to be
the Meshi returns at some point, but

1422
01:29:29.800 --> 01:29:32.039
you're putting more studios there, had
it done better, had it done better

1423
01:29:32.119 --> 01:29:36.199
than Insane Trilogy. It's like Tony
Hawk's pro Skater one plus two remake was

1424
01:29:36.279 --> 01:29:40.840
the best selling Tony Hawk game of
all time, a franchise known for being

1425
01:29:41.000 --> 01:29:43.880
like massive, and then they didn't
make a fall up to that. So

1426
01:29:43.920 --> 01:29:45.399
at a certain point it's like,
no, no matter what happens with these

1427
01:29:45.439 --> 01:29:47.960
other games, you're going to go
work on Call of Duty. But the

1428
01:29:48.000 --> 01:29:51.840
weird thing is, even when Xbox
did kind of come in, you know,

1429
01:29:53.680 --> 01:29:56.720
twice for Bob, then it's not
like they were like, Okay,

1430
01:29:56.920 --> 01:29:59.800
yeah, you're with us and you're
gonna become you know, Crash and Spiro.

1431
01:30:00.600 --> 01:30:02.159
Yeah you can go off on your
own instead of us closing you,

1432
01:30:02.319 --> 01:30:06.399
I guess yeah. And what's weird
is like they are working with Xbox.

1433
01:30:06.479 --> 01:30:14.039
Now is the contract some project.
It's weird and it's probably Spiral or Crash.

1434
01:30:14.119 --> 01:30:15.479
But I'm just like, wind up, why did you just let them

1435
01:30:15.520 --> 01:30:20.199
do that as part of like you
The whole thing is weird. I hope

1436
01:30:20.239 --> 01:30:25.720
we still do get Spiro and Crash
games because again, hey, the Spiral

1437
01:30:25.840 --> 01:30:30.039
trilogy also sold incredibly well. Yeah, that was very much a good one

1438
01:30:30.039 --> 01:30:32.680
because I never played those and then
like that was they aided so well.

1439
01:30:33.199 --> 01:30:35.960
The actual way they put the trilogy
together was great. It looked beautiful,

1440
01:30:36.039 --> 01:30:40.680
like I that's one of my favorites, like HD Remake Remaster. It's just

1441
01:30:40.720 --> 01:30:43.279
the amount of time they put in, like giving all those like because like

1442
01:30:43.560 --> 01:30:46.359
in Spiral one set of Stars,
you save dragons, and they gave each

1443
01:30:46.479 --> 01:30:51.079
dragon this incredible unique design. They
were like the same dragon, right yeah,

1444
01:30:51.079 --> 01:30:54.119
and there's like a few different malls. They had different colors and like

1445
01:30:54.199 --> 01:30:57.600
each of them had a different design. They were animated, so it looked

1446
01:30:58.039 --> 01:31:01.319
so good. Like just yet the
Spiral in Crash Remix are great, but

1447
01:31:01.399 --> 01:31:04.159
the Spiral ones especially, and that
was Toys for Bob. It's not how

1448
01:31:04.239 --> 01:31:09.399
much crowing Activision had, and it
kind of all just led to more call

1449
01:31:09.520 --> 01:31:12.680
duty. That's say, like Toys
for Bob. It's so talented and so

1450
01:31:12.800 --> 01:31:15.359
incredible. I'm so glad they weren't
shut down. It's wold to be.

1451
01:31:15.399 --> 01:31:16.720
The Xbox was just like, yeah, you can go be on your own.

1452
01:31:16.720 --> 01:31:20.640
Then we'll just like who gets you
pro bono or whatever? We guess

1453
01:31:20.840 --> 01:31:25.000
all right, I am keeping pro
bono. It's fine. I'm thinking about

1454
01:31:25.000 --> 01:31:28.640
Tony Hawk a lot lately because I
am playing Tony Hawk three on a shoot

1455
01:31:28.720 --> 01:31:32.239
PS two lately, and oh man, like, look, I love the

1456
01:31:32.279 --> 01:31:35.079
one plus two remake and I love
you know, emulating and stuff like that,

1457
01:31:35.199 --> 01:31:39.760
but I am just playing with a
dual shock in my hand on a

1458
01:31:39.880 --> 01:31:44.079
CRT and everything is so fucking snappy, and every song that hurts, like

1459
01:31:44.319 --> 01:31:45.560
god damn it. I've been thinking
about Tony Hawk a lot lately, and

1460
01:31:46.039 --> 01:31:49.319
I just would love more of that. I got that soundcheck on vinyl recently,

1461
01:31:49.399 --> 01:31:53.600
son ext pro Skater three specifically,
and this and the vinyl is fun

1462
01:31:53.680 --> 01:31:55.960
because like, in between tracks,
it will just kind of play like the

1463
01:31:56.119 --> 01:31:59.399
menu sounds and like stuff like that, which like all sounds like skateboard stuff.

1464
01:31:59.760 --> 01:32:01.680
Yeah, that's still That's still my
favorite Tony X pro Skater three.

1465
01:32:01.680 --> 01:32:04.359
It's kind of everything like I want, like, you know, four in

1466
01:32:04.479 --> 01:32:06.800
the Thug series when it went more
up in the world. It's still fun,

1467
01:32:08.439 --> 01:32:12.319
but I definitely prefer the more run
based game. Yeah, three or

1468
01:32:12.359 --> 01:32:18.800
three? Oh yeah. Can I
say my controversial uh Tony Hawk take Tony

1469
01:32:18.840 --> 01:32:27.119
HOS pro Skater one is best on
N sixty four. That's insane. It

1470
01:32:27.279 --> 01:32:30.399
feels better. I am the biggest
in sixty four control defender on the planet

1471
01:32:32.079 --> 01:32:35.840
for Tony Hawk and also the right
the control it right. But if you

1472
01:32:35.920 --> 01:32:45.439
played on an emulator these days,
now I get hot tailor Yeah, it's

1473
01:32:45.479 --> 01:32:48.119
not a hot take, it's stupidity. What are you the oldest thing to

1474
01:32:48.199 --> 01:32:51.199
say? The game plays better on
the N sixty four than it does on

1475
01:32:51.279 --> 01:32:57.399
PlayStation one, Ship and Dreamcast and
Dreamcast. If it plays better than that

1476
01:32:57.479 --> 01:33:00.760
one too, that's like saying,
like, oh no, Super Mario sixty

1477
01:33:00.800 --> 01:33:04.199
four. What's the best way to
play that is N sixty four is see

1478
01:33:04.439 --> 01:33:09.520
the decompilation, Like, yeah,
of course pros Skater two on everything felt

1479
01:33:09.720 --> 01:33:12.439
more like the N sixty four version, which is why that one started really

1480
01:33:12.439 --> 01:33:15.279
getting better. And then then then
it didn't matter in sixty four and you

1481
01:33:15.279 --> 01:33:18.640
can play Tony pro Skater two X
for the Xbox it's very good. Yeah

1482
01:33:18.920 --> 01:33:23.159
it's a latch game. Yeah it
was. I forget that all right,

1483
01:33:23.199 --> 01:33:25.960
everyone's mad at me. That's what
I like. Link will be playable in

1484
01:33:26.039 --> 01:33:29.319
the Legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom
in the upcoming game, The Legend of

1485
01:33:29.359 --> 01:33:31.079
Zelda Echoes of Wisdom players will be
able to assume the role of Link,

1486
01:33:31.439 --> 01:33:35.399
as confirmed by US Entertainment Software Rating
Sport. Basically, the game got rated

1487
01:33:35.640 --> 01:33:39.119
and they're like in the sections where
you play is link and everyone's like,

1488
01:33:39.159 --> 01:33:42.479
I thought you played a Zelda.
Do you think that this is anything more

1489
01:33:42.560 --> 01:33:45.920
than the intro section we saw at
the game? It would be the fucking

1490
01:33:45.000 --> 01:33:47.880
thing in Spirit tracks where every once
in a while there's this like side little

1491
01:33:47.960 --> 01:33:50.399
section where it's like, oh,
every year before you go into ever Dunetin,

1492
01:33:50.479 --> 01:33:54.079
you do this link thing to unlock
it in a spirit world or something,

1493
01:33:54.159 --> 01:33:56.239
you know, like yeah, yeah, I mean it could be that

1494
01:33:56.399 --> 01:33:58.760
it could be, yeah, just
as little as that intro, because it

1495
01:33:58.760 --> 01:34:01.920
specifically says like use this and uh
bow and arrow, and I bet like,

1496
01:34:02.039 --> 01:34:04.199
yeah, that's probably the extent of
his abilities, because it is just

1497
01:34:04.279 --> 01:34:09.960
going to be that little intro just
using his model and his stuff that they

1498
01:34:10.000 --> 01:34:13.319
already had from the Links of Wake
any remake. I'm sure this is still

1499
01:34:13.760 --> 01:34:17.399
ninety five percent or more playing as
Zelda. This isn't like some concern And

1500
01:34:17.520 --> 01:34:21.159
also, who gets ah if there's
not a big deal, like right,

1501
01:34:21.720 --> 01:34:25.720
I don't think at very least it's
like definitely not a problem. But it's

1502
01:34:25.800 --> 01:34:27.760
like, Okay, is there going
to be more than what we saw?

1503
01:34:27.840 --> 01:34:30.079
I bet it's not. I think
it's just the intro. I bet I

1504
01:34:30.119 --> 01:34:32.199
can play the intro as links and
that's it. I really hope that there's

1505
01:34:32.239 --> 01:34:35.800
some kid out there somewhere who gets
a Melgear Solid two experience with this game.

1506
01:34:36.119 --> 01:34:44.560
That would be so connection. Yeah. Yeah, just a man on

1507
01:34:44.640 --> 01:34:47.479
an island, the last person out
there defending the link. All right,

1508
01:34:47.600 --> 01:34:51.840
yeah, we'll see. Uh.
Resident Evil seven on iOS has proportedly been

1509
01:34:51.880 --> 01:34:57.119
purchased by fewer than two thousand people. Resident seven on iOS has had a

1510
01:34:57.199 --> 01:35:01.399
slow start, with an estimated eighty
three thousand down loads and twenty and forty

1511
01:35:01.399 --> 01:35:06.079
dollars in revenue excluding apples thirty percent
cut. This suggests that less than two

1512
01:35:06.119 --> 01:35:12.159
thousand paying customers have actually converted on
the game. Other console ports on iOS

1513
01:35:12.239 --> 01:35:15.680
have had similar slow launches, although
most are like around ten thousand or so

1514
01:35:15.800 --> 01:35:18.880
in terms of people who have bought
it. Yeah, that's that's rough.

1515
01:35:19.239 --> 01:35:25.039
That's rough. I get why this
happens in terms of why these games come

1516
01:35:25.079 --> 01:35:28.800
to the iOS in the first place, where it's basically all the same thing

1517
01:35:28.920 --> 01:35:30.199
as their computers. So if they
make it for Mac, they could just

1518
01:35:30.239 --> 01:35:33.680
put it on the phone. But
do you think they even keep doing this

1519
01:35:33.800 --> 01:35:35.920
in the future. I don't know. I guess they give it a chance

1520
01:35:35.960 --> 01:35:39.840
when more people can play it on
more devices. Right, Yeah, based

1521
01:35:39.920 --> 01:35:43.560
on the way because I did watch
wwe DC this year, and based on

1522
01:35:43.640 --> 01:35:47.520
the way Apple's talking about gaming and
these Triple A games, this feels like

1523
01:35:47.600 --> 01:35:53.520
an Apple initiative and not specifically a
Capcom slash Ubisoft initially, right, and

1524
01:35:54.000 --> 01:35:59.319
those always flame out those role ways
like talk about games at one WWDC and

1525
01:35:59.359 --> 01:36:01.239
then two years later there's a new
initiati or even just so text stuff like

1526
01:36:01.279 --> 01:36:04.199
this in general that's a little bit
disconnected, like you know, Stadia talking

1527
01:36:04.279 --> 01:36:08.399
up some big exclusive or something that's
probably Google going to that developer and say,

1528
01:36:08.439 --> 01:36:11.279
hey, you know, may we
work out a deal here, and

1529
01:36:11.399 --> 01:36:14.880
then you know, when it doesn't
take off, well obviously, then the

1530
01:36:15.000 --> 01:36:17.399
developer just nopes on out and yeah, this is what we were talking about

1531
01:36:17.399 --> 01:36:20.880
a little bit before. It's a
combination of a lot of these games do

1532
01:36:21.079 --> 01:36:25.880
require a newer device. You need
either the fit iPhone fifteen Pro or you

1533
01:36:26.000 --> 01:36:30.319
need to have a one of the
newer iPads, and so that already limits

1534
01:36:30.359 --> 01:36:34.439
the market you can address because people
upgrade their phones slower and slower nowadays.

1535
01:36:34.640 --> 01:36:38.560
So there's plenty of people out there, I'm sure, with like an iPhone

1536
01:36:38.640 --> 01:36:42.600
twelve who have slapped a backbone on
and might wat check this out, but

1537
01:36:42.720 --> 01:36:45.960
they can't, and then only within
this newer audience you're gonna charge them full

1538
01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:51.319
price for it. That's not what
they expect out of mobile gaming. Like

1539
01:36:51.439 --> 01:36:56.079
even if it is a triple A
quality game like a mijoio game or you

1540
01:36:56.159 --> 01:36:58.880
know, any of the art ones
similar to that, they expect it to

1541
01:36:59.079 --> 01:37:02.760
be free to play the whole way
through. Yep, I just remembered that

1542
01:37:03.479 --> 01:37:10.279
metal Gear Solid four had an iPhone
version in two thousand and nine, and

1543
01:37:10.680 --> 01:37:12.920
I just googled to make sure I'm
not losing my mind, and yeah,

1544
01:37:12.920 --> 01:37:15.800
meddle Gear is like a cover shooter. Well yeah, but it's like I'm

1545
01:37:15.840 --> 01:37:17.560
looking at it now, and both
the wiki and also this Kataku article,

1546
01:37:18.039 --> 01:37:21.880
I guess they put the whole story
in there, so like the entire story

1547
01:37:21.880 --> 01:37:28.279
of metal Gear, but like the
it's just like a shooting gallery thing where

1548
01:37:28.279 --> 01:37:30.079
you're just like tapping the screen and
like pinch to zoom on the sniper and

1549
01:37:30.119 --> 01:37:34.239
stuff like that. But the imagine
experiencing the MGS four story on a fucking

1550
01:37:34.600 --> 01:37:40.159
two thousand and nine iPhone. Do
you still cross through the microwave tube like

1551
01:37:40.319 --> 01:37:43.159
he's just tapping? I would imagine
like everything I'm seeing it says that I

1552
01:37:43.239 --> 01:37:46.159
have the whole story, which is
insane. So it's like the it's like

1553
01:37:46.239 --> 01:37:51.840
fifteen pocket edition. Yeah, it
sounds like okay, okay, I've been

1554
01:37:51.880 --> 01:37:56.760
trying for a while, haven't they. Yeah, oh yeah, they keep

1555
01:37:56.800 --> 01:37:59.479
wanting to make this work. But
yeah, well, the idea is like,

1556
01:37:59.560 --> 01:38:00.640
oh, there's a billions of these
devices in the world. If we

1557
01:38:00.680 --> 01:38:03.279
can get them buying those games,
then then we can keep making games like

1558
01:38:03.359 --> 01:38:06.399
this, and boys that that's just
not gonna happen. Huh No, it's

1559
01:38:06.560 --> 01:38:10.439
and it all comes down to the
monetization. You know, Someday they'll realize

1560
01:38:10.439 --> 01:38:14.640
you can't just take this you know, solo single player experience designed for a

1561
01:38:14.720 --> 01:38:18.359
stationary console and then just part it
over to a random device expected to work.

1562
01:38:18.399 --> 01:38:23.119
Because the reason something like a Steam
deck takes off or a switch port

1563
01:38:23.159 --> 01:38:27.600
of something is because the people buying
those devices are the people who want to

1564
01:38:27.680 --> 01:38:30.960
play on a console or a PC. It's the same audience. You can't

1565
01:38:30.359 --> 01:38:34.239
just grab this entirely different audience expect
them to think the same way that someone

1566
01:38:34.319 --> 01:38:38.840
like us might, and it's it's
just so far disconnected. Like imagine,

1567
01:38:40.239 --> 01:38:43.039
it's the same thing as like you
used to pay for a newspaper every day

1568
01:38:43.279 --> 01:38:45.640
and now you go to the website
and it comes to your house free every

1569
01:38:45.720 --> 01:38:46.920
day. Now, what if you
had to pay for that website once a

1570
01:38:47.039 --> 01:38:50.039
day to read it? And they're
just no one can ever imagine doing that

1571
01:38:50.119 --> 01:38:54.600
again. And they're not going to
do that with these games on devices.

1572
01:38:54.960 --> 01:38:59.199
They've just moved past that monetizations game. By the way, just because we

1573
01:38:59.399 --> 01:39:02.680
brought up mail your Solid, dude, we need to do Metal Grub Solid

1574
01:39:02.800 --> 01:39:08.720
just so Jeff Grubb can experience the
story of its entirety. I just I

1575
01:39:09.039 --> 01:39:12.359
so badly want you to see that. It's so good. I would do

1576
01:39:12.439 --> 01:39:14.319
it. Yeah, I'll do it. I want, I want to so

1577
01:39:14.520 --> 01:39:17.199
yeah, I want my missed play
through first. Yea, all the name

1578
01:39:17.239 --> 01:39:19.640
you dumb bastard. Go ahead,
we know what you want to do here.

1579
01:39:19.960 --> 01:39:26.479
The fear of missing out Monday mornings
missed with Mitch, there's a colon

1580
01:39:26.560 --> 01:39:31.359
in there. Why didn't we do
this one grub was gone. I don't

1581
01:39:31.359 --> 01:39:40.680
know. I know it's a good
idea. What time we're on Giant Bomb.

1582
01:39:40.720 --> 01:39:42.800
We just need to shoehorn your name
into the name of the game.

1583
01:39:42.880 --> 01:39:51.000
That's what we do here on YouTube. Rock Stars g t A Plus subscription

1584
01:39:51.119 --> 01:39:56.600
service could be coming to Nintendo Switch. Rockstar Games is reportedly planning to bring

1585
01:39:56.680 --> 01:40:00.600
its g T A Plus subscription service
to Nintendo Switch. As for an update

1586
01:40:00.640 --> 01:40:03.479
on its website. Gt A Plus
offers access to a variety of Rockstar titles,

1587
01:40:03.520 --> 01:40:08.399
including g t A online benefits such
as extra cash, cars, cosmetics,

1588
01:40:08.439 --> 01:40:12.600
and exclusive events. But GT five
isn't on, right, That's what

1589
01:40:12.720 --> 01:40:15.439
I was just wondering. Yeah,
right, So currently Red Dead, Redemption,

1590
01:40:15.600 --> 01:40:18.520
Grand Theft, Auto the Trilogy,
The Defenditive Edition, and La nou

1591
01:40:18.640 --> 01:40:23.119
R are available and attendant Switch and
could be included in the service, which

1592
01:40:23.119 --> 01:40:25.960
I think you get as part of
your g T A Plus subscription. But

1593
01:40:26.079 --> 01:40:29.199
gt A five is not. But
you know what be an interesting switch to

1594
01:40:29.399 --> 01:40:33.439
launch game though? Uh huh yeah, yeah. Do they still do the

1595
01:40:33.560 --> 01:40:42.800
Rockstar Social Club? Then yeah they
do? I think right? That was

1596
01:40:42.880 --> 01:40:45.039
like that I was trying to play
those modded games, the community modded games

1597
01:40:45.039 --> 01:40:47.520
where like you drive a car up
a hill or something like that, and

1598
01:40:47.880 --> 01:40:50.840
it was so confusing how to activate
those inside the game. So you got

1599
01:40:50.920 --> 01:40:54.960
to go to the website and then
go to the app and then activate inside

1600
01:40:55.000 --> 01:40:57.159
the app, and then you go
in the game and you find certain stuff

1601
01:40:57.159 --> 01:41:00.159
inside the game. The amount we
had to do to make that GTA Crime

1602
01:41:00.239 --> 01:41:04.479
Crew feature back in the day was
that seeming insane? Yeah? Absolutely,

1603
01:41:05.880 --> 01:41:10.079
But I've never really played much GTN
online, so I still kind of want

1604
01:41:10.119 --> 01:41:13.720
to go experience out there. It
is kind of weird. J keeps talking

1605
01:41:13.760 --> 01:41:15.760
about it, and there's new content
all the time. Maybe we just go

1606
01:41:15.800 --> 01:41:17.520
in there mess around a little bit. We don't have to do a recreation

1607
01:41:17.680 --> 01:41:20.920
of the Crime Crew. But it's
also would be easier now because back then

1608
01:41:21.119 --> 01:41:26.439
no one was doing like remote stuff. But it wasn't as easy as it

1609
01:41:26.560 --> 01:41:29.279
is now. Yes, it was
well thought out as we have it now.

1610
01:41:29.359 --> 01:41:31.279
Yeah, good point. Interesting,
that's all bringing hard drives to Vinnie

1611
01:41:31.359 --> 01:41:36.760
with like gigabytes of row put it
on it for him to go through an

1612
01:41:38.079 --> 01:41:43.199
Oh my god. Yeah, that
was crazy, Ubisoft says it's actively working

1613
01:41:43.359 --> 01:41:47.680
on the Driver franchise. Plans for
a live action Driver series have been canceled,

1614
01:41:47.960 --> 01:41:51.560
but Ubisoft says it still has plans
for the Driver franchise despite no major

1615
01:41:51.600 --> 01:41:58.560
game releases in over a decade.
Ubisoft Driver related subsidiary hot Rod Tanner,

1616
01:41:58.840 --> 01:42:00.760
LLC, which was the name of
the character by the way, was dissolved

1617
01:42:00.800 --> 01:42:05.159
in January, and that was going
to make the show. You're just a

1618
01:42:05.600 --> 01:42:09.199
decade. I feel like it's been
way longer than that. What was the

1619
01:42:09.279 --> 01:42:12.720
last Driver? Now, there was
one where you you were a ghost man

1620
01:42:12.800 --> 01:42:15.880
that travels between cars. It was
awesome. Okay, there was a mobile

1621
01:42:15.920 --> 01:42:21.319
one in twenty fourteen, Driver Speedboat
Paradise. You all forgot about Driver's Speedboat

1622
01:42:23.159 --> 01:42:28.039
the hell? Okay, fair enough? You like the Driver Dan. I

1623
01:42:28.199 --> 01:42:30.359
like Driver one. I liked a
lot. I like just the mode where

1624
01:42:30.399 --> 01:42:32.640
it's just like, Okay, these
cops are going to come try to kill

1625
01:42:32.680 --> 01:42:34.600
you and see how long you can
survive. That was fun. Like a

1626
01:42:34.640 --> 01:42:38.039
lot of ramps, A lot of
it's in San Francisco. I like ramps.

1627
01:42:38.479 --> 01:42:41.840
And then San Francisco had such a
goofy ass gimmick of like you're in

1628
01:42:41.920 --> 01:42:45.800
a coma, but your spirit can
travel between cars and had that crazy tag

1629
01:42:45.920 --> 01:42:48.079
mode to the local multiplayer mode that
Ben Hanson introduced me to, and it's

1630
01:42:48.079 --> 01:42:53.079
one of the weirdest, most like
hidden gym. So it's like a tag

1631
01:42:53.159 --> 01:42:55.439
mode thing. Did we do this
for Extra Life Manati? Does this sound

1632
01:42:55.479 --> 01:43:00.439
familiar? No, because I've never
played a driver somehow, it's weird.

1633
01:43:00.720 --> 01:43:03.680
It's a big series, and I
mean the first one predates GTA three in

1634
01:43:03.760 --> 01:43:08.840
terms of being like an actual three
D open world driving game kind of thing.

1635
01:43:09.119 --> 01:43:10.760
It is open, but you're not
like getting out of the car and

1636
01:43:10.760 --> 01:43:15.560
stuff until Yeah, it's it's so
cool that the tag mode though, is

1637
01:43:15.600 --> 01:43:17.359
like, Okay, both of us
start in this open world and we can

1638
01:43:17.399 --> 01:43:21.279
at any point zoom out like zoom
the map up like Google Map style,

1639
01:43:21.560 --> 01:43:25.600
and then bring a cursor over any
other car and take it over. And

1640
01:43:25.680 --> 01:43:27.880
it's just a tag mode. So
it's like, okay, I'm it,

1641
01:43:28.039 --> 01:43:30.960
and so I need to tag grub. But we can be warping between cars

1642
01:43:31.000 --> 01:43:34.159
and stuff, so like our souls
are leaving cars and this is the most

1643
01:43:34.239 --> 01:43:36.600
chaotic, fun local multiplayer thing.
We have to do that for the next

1644
01:43:36.640 --> 01:43:40.199
Extra Life deal. Yeah, let's
do it. That sounds great. What

1645
01:43:40.279 --> 01:43:47.920
happened with Drivers three? It's like
Dress three three R three Yeah, gvavers

1646
01:43:48.000 --> 01:43:50.520
must be okay, but it looks
like the console version was rough. Great.

1647
01:43:50.600 --> 01:43:56.880
Yeah, all right, I guess
so the work on Driver I guess

1648
01:43:57.119 --> 01:44:01.279
up. It's not just Assassin's Creed
repainted as a Driver game or something like

1649
01:44:01.359 --> 01:44:04.680
that. But it sounds better than
the Assaustin's Creek. Yeah, it does.

1650
01:44:04.800 --> 01:44:10.840
Actually. Double Dragon Revive revealed Yukes
is working on a three D revival,

1651
01:44:11.760 --> 01:44:15.000
also with the Arc system Works.
Double Dragon Revived developed by YUS,

1652
01:44:15.279 --> 01:44:18.640
which who's known for the wrestling games, of course, releasing in twenty twenty

1653
01:44:18.680 --> 01:44:23.039
five for PS four, PS five, Xbox Series, Xbox one MPC.

1654
01:44:23.840 --> 01:44:29.199
Double Dragon Revive features classic gameplay with
the refined controls and balance supervised by staff

1655
01:44:29.319 --> 01:44:32.600
experience in Arc system Works fighting games, making it but while making it accessible

1656
01:44:32.640 --> 01:44:38.640
to new players. It feels like
there's a Double Dragon revival every couple of

1657
01:44:38.760 --> 01:44:41.199
months. I was just gonna say, they did Neon and then was it

1658
01:44:41.359 --> 01:44:45.800
four or something that came out.
We had Guiden not too long ago.

1659
01:44:45.039 --> 01:44:48.159
Yeah, it was like the Rogue
Click one with the pixart and it's good.

1660
01:44:48.359 --> 01:44:50.199
Like yeah, me and like both
like it and we're the only ones

1661
01:44:50.239 --> 01:44:53.279
on earth who ever talked about it. Yeah, it really got slopped on

1662
01:44:53.279 --> 01:44:56.119
because that came out last year when
it was just like a million other games

1663
01:44:56.159 --> 01:44:59.840
were coming out. But it was
actually I enjoyed it. I really liked

1664
01:44:59.840 --> 01:45:01.960
the way that it looked A had
a ton of playable characters. This meanwhile,

1665
01:45:02.439 --> 01:45:08.600
it looks like a YUX game.
Yes, it's kind of ugly models

1666
01:45:08.640 --> 01:45:12.880
everyone street wise like that rarely works. Like turning that type of game into

1667
01:45:12.920 --> 01:45:15.960
a three doesn't look as petest street
wise, but it does. I don't

1668
01:45:15.000 --> 01:45:19.399
even know if it looks as good
as Double Dragon Neon did. Don't don't

1669
01:45:19.439 --> 01:45:21.680
love the way it looks might still
be funny. That's because it's like they're

1670
01:45:21.680 --> 01:45:27.000
working with Arc system Works and they're
not using arcs Incredible visuals. Arc system

1671
01:45:27.039 --> 01:45:30.439
Work is a publisher also, and
that's not Yeah, but they're overseeing it,

1672
01:45:30.600 --> 01:45:33.279
like yeah, just like that.
It looks like it might be some

1673
01:45:33.479 --> 01:45:40.199
other TEPO without the Celi shading,
which is literally the problem with adapting that

1674
01:45:40.319 --> 01:45:43.760
art cell, like you need everything. Yeah, Jeff, I know we

1675
01:45:43.800 --> 01:45:45.119
talked about all the time, but
there was just a period in our lives

1676
01:45:45.439 --> 01:45:49.239
in the ne s era where Double
Dragon was one of the big franchises.

1677
01:45:49.439 --> 01:45:53.560
It got a movie, Yes,
it got a movie. There was a

1678
01:45:53.640 --> 01:45:58.319
cartoon. Everyone friends had it.
Yeah, yep, everyone had on it.

1679
01:45:58.399 --> 01:46:01.000
Like it was like we talked about
it diffinitely, like it was cool,

1680
01:46:01.119 --> 01:46:05.199
like you I did. There was
definitely multiple times during recess in elementary

1681
01:46:05.239 --> 01:46:10.159
school where we played Double Dragon.
We pretended to be And I like that

1682
01:46:10.239 --> 01:46:13.920
idea of games that like back in
the day were considered among there with the

1683
01:46:14.039 --> 01:46:15.479
top tier, and now they were
in the cannon. They were on Mount

1684
01:46:15.520 --> 01:46:19.039
rushmore then and not anymore because they're
weird ones Like you know. Castlevania was

1685
01:46:19.159 --> 01:46:21.199
one of those, and then it
had all these like dips and valleys and

1686
01:46:21.199 --> 01:46:28.079
stuff like that. But like Double
Dragon just kind of fell still yeats yeah

1687
01:46:28.920 --> 01:46:30.239
yeah. But what else is like
in the Double Dragon tier of like during

1688
01:46:30.279 --> 01:46:34.159
the days like Bubble Bubble, I
don't know. Well, I mean there's

1689
01:46:34.199 --> 01:46:39.560
Battle Toads who went Time, Yeah, met the Double that that series,

1690
01:46:39.600 --> 01:46:53.319
Mega man a lot of merchandise Mega
Mano joke that disappeared. Venture Island's really

1691
01:46:53.359 --> 01:46:56.319
good, yes, that I guess. Contral a little bit like I mean

1692
01:46:56.359 --> 01:46:59.319
there was a contral recently, but
no one cared about it. Did Adventure

1693
01:46:59.319 --> 01:47:03.399
Island die because Hudson just started making
Mario party money? Yes, I think

1694
01:47:03.479 --> 01:47:08.960
so they killed my baby Adventure.
The weird guy that lived on the street,

1695
01:47:08.960 --> 01:47:13.039
I guess he wasn't weird, was
normal. What's that I know?

1696
01:47:13.520 --> 01:47:16.880
Neo graphics? Yeah, yeah,
oh yeah, definitely, Yes, there

1697
01:47:16.920 --> 01:47:18.439
was a guy who lived on my
streets. Like, you just want to

1698
01:47:18.479 --> 01:47:21.119
borrow adventurel and I know you like
video games and I played that and that's

1699
01:47:21.119 --> 01:47:25.079
where I learned about that game.
And yeah, you guys are playing Super

1700
01:47:25.119 --> 01:47:28.119
Adventure Island too on the s n
E S. It's kind of a kind

1701
01:47:28.119 --> 01:47:32.800
of rules. It's very good.
Yeah, very underrated, uh sn e

1702
01:47:32.920 --> 01:47:36.319
S game Super Inventure Island two specifically, it's very cool. That was purely

1703
01:47:36.359 --> 01:47:39.840
an NES series for me. Like
I rented one, two and three a

1704
01:47:39.920 --> 01:47:42.399
million times. I don't think I
never made the jump to super with it.

1705
01:47:43.319 --> 01:47:46.279
Play play Super Adventureland. I got
the big power up as a skateboard,

1706
01:47:46.319 --> 01:47:50.399
and it just makes it easier to
die. I was going to run

1707
01:47:50.399 --> 01:47:54.920
into a rock or but it looked
cool. I love getting the skateboard every

1708
01:47:54.960 --> 01:47:59.319
time. I saw what he used
to be, but he's around. Yeah.

1709
01:48:00.399 --> 01:48:02.920
I have been wanting to, like
you were talking about street Wise and

1710
01:48:03.000 --> 01:48:06.640
that maybe think about Bomberman Act zero. Still to play all the bad glow

1711
01:48:06.760 --> 01:48:12.079
up games, every game that was
trying to be cool and gritty, and

1712
01:48:12.319 --> 01:48:15.880
play all of those back to back. That would be fun, all right.

1713
01:48:15.000 --> 01:48:18.960
Riot Games reportedly canceled plans for a
Smash Brothers style fighter. Riot Games

1714
01:48:19.000 --> 01:48:23.399
canceled the plans for the game.
The platform fighter was in development with a

1715
01:48:23.439 --> 01:48:28.199
team of around seventy to eighty developers
and had evolved to include party game elements

1716
01:48:28.279 --> 01:48:32.399
and casual mechanics. Riot executives were
concerned about the game's potential success, signing

1717
01:48:32.439 --> 01:48:39.319
the citing the performance of Warner's free
to play crossover fighter Multi Versus Mike.

1718
01:48:39.399 --> 01:48:43.239
Do you think there was a chance
for a League of Legends a platform Fighter

1719
01:48:43.279 --> 01:48:47.359
to succeed. I mean, maybe, but not much of one. It's

1720
01:48:47.399 --> 01:48:50.399
hard. We've seen so many people
try to come after that space, and

1721
01:48:50.479 --> 01:48:56.520
it's just very difficult to topple Nintendo, even when we are like years away

1722
01:48:56.600 --> 01:48:59.760
from the release of the last Smash
Brothers, because people will just keep playing

1723
01:48:59.760 --> 01:49:02.920
those games. Multi verses seemed like
it had a little bit of momentum immediately,

1724
01:49:03.399 --> 01:49:06.319
and that died down quick and when
they relaunched it, it didn't really

1725
01:49:06.399 --> 01:49:11.840
seem like there was that much excitement
momentum there. It's also weird because they

1726
01:49:11.880 --> 01:49:15.159
are making like the their actual,
like normal two D fighting game, so

1727
01:49:15.479 --> 01:49:20.399
working on both of those at the
same time kind of seems bizarre. Probably

1728
01:49:20.439 --> 01:49:25.239
a smart thing just to focus on. I can't remember what's what the two

1729
01:49:25.279 --> 01:49:30.520
D fighting game is called anymore?
How could I forget? I like that

1730
01:49:30.640 --> 01:49:39.920
name. I'm defend it great.
You can defend that exactly. You can

1731
01:49:40.039 --> 01:49:42.439
chuck it liquid death while you do
it. Oh yeah, let's go.

1732
01:49:43.039 --> 01:49:45.199
Yeah. I mean look, I
mean, pardon me side because I like

1733
01:49:45.399 --> 01:49:47.199
those kind of fighting games, and
maybe they could have made a good one.

1734
01:49:47.279 --> 01:49:50.239
And I'm also sad because I don't
play League of Legends, but I

1735
01:49:50.319 --> 01:49:53.880
do think there's a lot of fun
characters there. I would like to have

1736
01:49:53.960 --> 01:49:57.079
a way to kind of interact with
that world more, and maybe a platform

1737
01:49:57.159 --> 01:50:00.760
fighter would be a good way to
do that. But I can kind of

1738
01:50:00.840 --> 01:50:02.960
see why you just want to focus
on the other fighting game. Yeah,

1739
01:50:03.119 --> 01:50:06.199
you kind of don't need two fighting
games. Speaking of the characters. That's

1740
01:50:06.239 --> 01:50:10.439
why I'm excited for two XKO is
because it is a way to interact with

1741
01:50:10.520 --> 01:50:13.600
that world without having to play a
mobile where you know the chat's going to

1742
01:50:13.640 --> 01:50:17.520
be super toxic to you all the
time. I think part of the problem

1743
01:50:17.640 --> 01:50:23.640
with anyone making a platform fighter is
that so many just miss the point.

1744
01:50:23.800 --> 01:50:27.560
And that's why any of these,
like big, large scale ones are destined

1745
01:50:27.560 --> 01:50:30.239
to fail most of the time,
is because they try to make super smash

1746
01:50:30.239 --> 01:50:34.960
players melee. You don't make super
smash players melee. You can't recreate that

1747
01:50:35.119 --> 01:50:40.359
magic because the magic of that was
people played it casually, liked it so

1748
01:50:40.560 --> 01:50:43.960
much that they want to play it
competitively, and that's how the competitive smash

1749
01:50:44.000 --> 01:50:49.439
community really began to grow. And
you can't just replicate that organic growth out

1750
01:50:49.479 --> 01:50:54.560
of nowhere. Way now they I
think they see, oh, smash cells,

1751
01:50:54.960 --> 01:50:58.319
you know, ten million, fifteen
million, twenty million copies of the

1752
01:50:58.399 --> 01:51:00.880
newest release, They're like, we
get in on that. We have IP

1753
01:51:01.279 --> 01:51:06.079
we have these characters being put in
not realizing that you need to make it

1754
01:51:06.199 --> 01:51:10.960
for the casual audience. And the
casual audience isn't you know, glued to

1755
01:51:11.279 --> 01:51:15.680
your franchises the way they are Mario
and Zelda and everything, and they can

1756
01:51:15.880 --> 01:51:18.439
just you know, play it casually, whether they're chucking items at their friends

1757
01:51:18.479 --> 01:51:21.920
and stage hazards kill you and y'all
like laugh about it. That's how you

1758
01:51:23.039 --> 01:51:27.119
get people in the door. You
can't have this like ultra competitive one v

1759
01:51:27.279 --> 01:51:30.079
one, you know, like some
flat platform and everything. You'll get a

1760
01:51:30.359 --> 01:51:33.960
small core audience, but you're not
gonna see a huge grow. That's why

1761
01:51:34.399 --> 01:51:39.479
Multi Versus was. It is a
good idea in general because it is a

1762
01:51:39.760 --> 01:51:44.039
very large portfolio of IP mixed with
free to play, and that's the first

1763
01:51:44.079 --> 01:51:47.319
time that really happened. But even
they, you know, started to struggle

1764
01:51:47.359 --> 01:51:50.760
a little bit as players fell off
in that first day. Of thirty five

1765
01:51:50.880 --> 01:51:56.199
hundred active players right now and it
usually has around five thousand coording the Steam

1766
01:51:56.279 --> 01:51:59.560
charts sounds right, yeah, I
mean to me, at this point,

1767
01:51:59.560 --> 01:52:02.920
it's like the idea is Nickelodeon that
version where it's like, now, let's

1768
01:52:02.920 --> 01:52:05.359
put out a game for twenty dollars, and then here's a sequel a few

1769
01:52:05.399 --> 01:52:09.600
years later with more characters and more
stuff, and that's also twenty dollars.

1770
01:52:09.680 --> 01:52:12.399
By it have a party game,
and then maybe we'll have another one in

1771
01:52:12.399 --> 01:52:14.760
a few years and then later.
I think they put that on game Pass

1772
01:52:14.760 --> 01:52:16.520
recently. There's another little windfall for
you. It's like, yeah, makes

1773
01:52:16.600 --> 01:52:20.680
some money, makes some money.
Yeah. Expectations like look you have you

1774
01:52:20.760 --> 01:52:25.640
know you have Garfield and SpongeBob squared
pants Like okay that, yeah, you're

1775
01:52:25.640 --> 01:52:29.159
not that's not ever going to be
an EVA let alone. The number one

1776
01:52:29.319 --> 01:52:32.680
most entrance is at like a fighting
game tournament, the way Melee and the

1777
01:52:32.760 --> 01:52:39.399
Ultimate is no exactly all right.
Nintendo releases creepy teaser trailer for mystery M

1778
01:52:39.479 --> 01:52:44.560
rated Switch game. Nintendo has teased
a mystery horror game titled Emeo or Smiling

1779
01:52:44.640 --> 01:52:47.840
Man in Japanese. The trailer features
a Nintendo Switch logo in m and eighteen

1780
01:52:47.960 --> 01:52:54.439
ratings from the ESRB and Peggy respectively. The hashtag who is Emeo is included

1781
01:52:54.439 --> 01:52:58.840
in the trailer description and Nintendo's social
media posts. The Japanese video description links

1782
01:52:59.000 --> 01:53:01.680
to a teaser website. Nintendo recently
held a direct presentation, but it did

1783
01:53:01.720 --> 01:53:05.239
not include this game. There we
still haven't heard anything more about this,

1784
01:53:05.479 --> 01:53:10.760
and it really is just fifteen seconds
of a man standing around and who is

1785
01:53:10.800 --> 01:53:13.800
Emeo? What do you guys expect
from this? Is first party? Teasing

1786
01:53:13.840 --> 01:53:17.039
it like using it. People are
assuming it's first party, and it probably

1787
01:53:17.159 --> 01:53:21.159
is because there is no reference to
a third party publisher or developer in the

1788
01:53:21.279 --> 01:53:26.079
description or in the video itself.
And Nintendo, Like, is Nintendo going

1789
01:53:26.159 --> 01:53:28.039
to do that for someone else?
Are going to put themselves on the line

1790
01:53:28.039 --> 01:53:31.800
for another company? I don't think
so. I just I assumed it was

1791
01:53:31.920 --> 01:53:35.760
Fatal Frame. But if it's you
know, first party internal, I don't

1792
01:53:35.800 --> 01:53:41.159
know. Maybe it's just a completely
new horror game they've done weird way,

1793
01:53:41.760 --> 01:53:44.920
like we published one of those Fatal
Frames though, right where it's like basically

1794
01:53:45.039 --> 01:53:47.439
was a first party game that was
made by the third party company or something?

1795
01:53:47.720 --> 01:53:51.000
Yeah, I guess it could be
that again, but I don't know.

1796
01:53:51.720 --> 01:53:54.760
I don't know about Fatal Framed to
know if this is a reference to

1797
01:53:54.800 --> 01:53:57.239
that. No one's really said that. So yeah, it's just I mean,

1798
01:53:57.279 --> 01:53:59.720
it just seems like I guess they're
making up a horror game. We

1799
01:54:00.039 --> 01:54:01.840
don't know who's making it. We
probably won't know him too. We see

1800
01:54:01.920 --> 01:54:09.119
the credits like Mansion, Yeah,
exactly what we say, a horror game

1801
01:54:09.279 --> 01:54:13.399
and we understand like the vibe,
but like that could be so many things

1802
01:54:13.479 --> 01:54:17.479
like are we expecting a Silent Hill
or Resident Evil? Are something completely weird

1803
01:54:17.520 --> 01:54:23.079
and different here? It should be
a Warrior where mixed with night Trap.

1804
01:54:24.640 --> 01:54:28.479
Yeah, with the night Trap.
Yeah, have licensed the night Trap song.

1805
01:54:28.479 --> 01:54:30.560
They're not doing a new Man's Hunt. And that's why Rockstar Service is

1806
01:54:30.560 --> 01:54:34.079
coming to Switch exactly. And you
got to play with the wims. You

1807
01:54:34.119 --> 01:54:36.720
can actually snap next. Yep,
right, I'm going to the microphone.

1808
01:54:36.720 --> 01:54:40.359
If you're talking, they can hear
you. Yeah. Uh huh God.

1809
01:54:41.359 --> 01:54:45.800
Nintendo brings three Japan only GB A
Game Boy Advance platformers to the Switch Online.

1810
01:54:45.840 --> 01:54:49.680
Nintendo has released three previously unreleased games
that were only available in Japan,

1811
01:54:50.119 --> 01:54:56.279
Starfee, Starfee two and Starfy three. Starvey Is Cool, The d one

1812
01:54:56.279 --> 01:55:00.720
A pretty well did come to North
America. You also disappoint and Jeff's lack

1813
01:55:00.760 --> 01:55:03.359
of Starfy knowledge over the past week. I feel like you should know more

1814
01:55:03.399 --> 01:55:08.439
about Starfy, Like I should know
more about Starfy too, Yes, emulate

1815
01:55:08.479 --> 01:55:11.000
and everything. Yeah. I feel
like if I had not reviewed that game

1816
01:55:11.039 --> 01:55:12.960
when it came out on DS,
I don't think I ever would have heard

1817
01:55:12.960 --> 01:55:15.239
about it. I've never heard anyone
else bring it up or anything, so

1818
01:55:15.279 --> 01:55:18.399
I could see why it would like
I've seen the picture a bunch of times

1819
01:55:18.439 --> 01:55:20.479
and I was like, I should
play that, and then I just never

1820
01:55:20.600 --> 01:55:23.840
did. And part of it was
no one was there going, well,

1821
01:55:23.880 --> 01:55:26.560
you should definitely make Starfy. No
one's ever said that to me. I

1822
01:55:27.680 --> 01:55:31.800
like getting Japanese games on the English
stores or NSOs. That's fine. These

1823
01:55:31.880 --> 01:55:36.640
games are relatively text dependent, though, I don't think you're gonna have a

1824
01:55:36.680 --> 01:55:41.359
good experience. There was a moment
in the trailer for this where they announced

1825
01:55:41.399 --> 01:55:44.800
this where they're like, and here's
Starfy too, and it was like thirty

1826
01:55:44.840 --> 01:55:46.840
seconds of text from the story and
it was all in Japanese. It was

1827
01:55:46.840 --> 01:55:49.479
like, what the hell are you
doing it. It's like that's it'd be

1828
01:55:49.640 --> 01:55:55.000
like, oh hey, here's Mother
three. It's not translated. It's not

1829
01:55:55.119 --> 01:56:00.479
quite as bad as that. Yes, survey's at least like mostly apply farmer.

1830
01:56:00.640 --> 01:56:03.039
So it's like, you know,
I gave its one an eight point

1831
01:56:03.119 --> 01:56:05.920
eight, and I said, here's
hoping for more Starfee titles in the future,

1832
01:56:06.119 --> 01:56:10.199
and possibly re releases of the ones
we never got to play here in

1833
01:56:10.239 --> 01:56:14.680
the States. Age They must have
read that review. Excellent I'm sorry I

1834
01:56:14.720 --> 01:56:16.840
insinuate you're a bad person for not
knowing more about Starfie. No, I

1835
01:56:17.000 --> 01:56:19.239
like I said, I think I
should know about more about Starfie too.

1836
01:56:19.319 --> 01:56:24.479
I agree, Yeah, what you
Mike? Was it? Is it literally?

1837
01:56:24.560 --> 01:56:26.359
How who did it? By the
way, now I'm like, I'm

1838
01:56:26.359 --> 01:56:29.279
not I don't know. Is it
literally the Kirby people who made Starfie.

1839
01:56:30.279 --> 01:56:32.159
It looks a lot like like Kirby, But I don't know. All right,

1840
01:56:32.359 --> 01:56:40.720
Well, maybe the people who did
ham Taro. Who's better starfee or

1841
01:56:40.920 --> 01:56:46.119
rye star uh star starfe r star
looks like a European platformer character, and

1842
01:56:46.159 --> 01:56:55.199
I mean that like parenthese name like
that was like probably definitely Mario pluck,

1843
01:56:55.319 --> 01:57:00.479
He's like plot flock plock fucking isn't
the egg Disney like Fantastic or something?

1844
01:57:00.840 --> 01:57:06.239
Yeah? Those games. Beat's like
like the government's like, all right,

1845
01:57:06.279 --> 01:57:12.560
here's the government mandated Mario. That's
what it feels like. All right,

1846
01:57:13.000 --> 01:57:16.640
that does it. That does it
for the news. I'm gonna hand the

1847
01:57:16.680 --> 01:57:23.800
show back over to Jen. Oh
my god, he's not here. All

1848
01:57:23.880 --> 01:57:26.640
right, We're gonna take another break. When we get back, we'll answer

1849
01:57:26.760 --> 01:57:34.000
some electronic mails. Wow, we
are the electronic mails and we're back.

1850
01:57:34.840 --> 01:57:38.560
We're gonna we're gonna get some emails
here pretty quick. But I don't know,

1851
01:57:38.600 --> 01:57:40.840
Dan, you want to show off
your your your package or is that?

1852
01:57:41.079 --> 01:57:46.640
My goodness, it's your package private, not for free, for free?

1853
01:57:48.159 --> 01:57:54.159
It's this I just got this,
yah, Pennsylvania? Are you sorrow?

1854
01:57:54.760 --> 01:57:58.720
Complete in the box? Now?
Game? What is the like?

1855
01:57:58.800 --> 01:58:00.079
What's the plane here? You have
it? Pleating box? Do you take

1856
01:58:00.119 --> 01:58:01.720
it out of the box and play
it? Or you know you just go

1857
01:58:01.760 --> 01:58:05.439
play on one of your devices?
I collect, I just collect. You

1858
01:58:05.520 --> 01:58:10.119
want to see it on the shelf? Got things? And this? What

1859
01:58:10.520 --> 01:58:15.119
did a bird just fly through Manati's
room? Wait? Okay, this just

1860
01:58:15.239 --> 01:58:19.720
happened. This is what I was
worried about. Doing something he's doing you

1861
01:58:19.960 --> 01:58:23.720
hear something? Is he doing bits? Mister? I got to tell a

1862
01:58:23.760 --> 01:58:27.039
proper I'm going to stare into your
heart. That's just being a professional.

1863
01:58:29.680 --> 01:58:33.960
We we might have told him about
virtual cam. We might have told damn

1864
01:58:34.000 --> 01:58:38.279
it, we might have told him
about obs scam. So now you can

1865
01:58:38.359 --> 01:58:42.920
control what we see beside him.
Look at that smile, right, And

1866
01:58:43.000 --> 01:58:45.840
I was like, it's gonna be
an arms race between you two with the

1867
01:58:45.920 --> 01:58:48.640
dumb technology on this episode. Welcome
to my library. It's like your tiny

1868
01:58:48.720 --> 01:58:51.279
little mice looking in at me.
You can go reach out and grab you.

1869
01:58:51.920 --> 01:58:57.960
Get out of there. This guy
doing usual jokes on an audio medium,

1870
01:59:00.159 --> 01:59:02.399
and I'll consider it. Geez you, oh mister, like just like

1871
01:59:02.920 --> 01:59:05.640
you're showing up the game. You
did even say the name of it I

1872
01:59:05.800 --> 01:59:10.960
had I was talking about on this
video game podcast. I'm being a professional.

1873
01:59:12.119 --> 01:59:15.560
Get out of my emails. You
can email the podcast by sending them

1874
01:59:15.600 --> 01:59:20.039
to BombCast at GiantBomb dot com.
That is BombCast at GiantBomb dot com.

1875
01:59:20.640 --> 01:59:25.000
Let's hop in with this first email. Hey bomb crew, Tyler from Gilbert,

1876
01:59:25.039 --> 01:59:28.039
Arizona. Here. When I was
in college, the best class I

1877
01:59:28.119 --> 01:59:30.840
took was an elect just very distracting
whatever you're doing with your hand. It

1878
01:59:30.960 --> 01:59:35.039
was. When I was in college, the best class I took was an

1879
01:59:35.039 --> 01:59:40.520
elective class called George Lucas and Steven
Spielberg Movies. It was a great class

1880
01:59:40.560 --> 01:59:44.199
for two reasons. One, it
was a full semester packed into three weeks,

1881
01:59:44.680 --> 01:59:46.720
uh, where we just dis stuff
on Friday night and all day Saturday,

1882
01:59:47.000 --> 01:59:49.720
so you had one less class for
the rest of the semester and two.

1883
01:59:50.039 --> 01:59:54.239
All we did was watch movies,
discuss them, and write a few

1884
01:59:54.279 --> 01:59:59.079
papers comparing and contrasting the two filmmakers. My question for you all is if

1885
01:59:59.159 --> 02:00:01.720
Giant Bomb had to make a similar
video game class with only two topics you

1886
02:00:01.760 --> 02:00:04.800
could discuss, compare, and contrast
for a semmester, what would it be?

1887
02:00:05.359 --> 02:00:10.359
Hideo Kajima and Sugara Miamoto games,
Yeahcauza and Grand Theft, Auto Street

1888
02:00:10.399 --> 02:00:14.399
Fighter, Immortal Kombat. I'd love
to hear your thoughts. They nailed it

1889
02:00:14.439 --> 02:00:18.520
with That's my three favorite franchise right
there. Here's my problem with that.

1890
02:00:18.640 --> 02:00:26.479
I think Spielberg and Lucas have a
connection that cause Memoto, don't really they

1891
02:00:26.560 --> 02:00:33.039
like yes, oh yeah, yeah
definitely is documented in my diary. I

1892
02:00:33.199 --> 02:00:39.119
feel like for Twin Snakes they have
to have like a point like Japanese development

1893
02:00:39.159 --> 02:00:42.560
is small? Amought. Both of
their pictures are on the Cycomantis wall.

1894
02:00:42.800 --> 02:00:45.239
Yeah, so they met in that
room. He hasn't met as as frequently

1895
02:00:45.279 --> 02:00:48.159
as he met Gott And I can't
remember his name. Top complete my joke,

1896
02:00:48.720 --> 02:00:55.960
Tommy, Tommy Talla Rica. There
we go, the Tommy tell Rico

1897
02:00:56.000 --> 02:01:00.880
and Jeff Keeley. We got compare
to the boyfriends in this line, Dennis

1898
02:01:00.000 --> 02:01:05.000
Dak and Randy Pitchford, that's a
good one. It's a nightmare. Yeah.

1899
02:01:08.600 --> 02:01:11.319
Uh there was a ps here.
I'm watching Better Call Sault right now,

1900
02:01:11.600 --> 02:01:13.880
and they did the trick with a
shaking can of soda. You will

1901
02:01:13.920 --> 02:01:20.439
discovered a few months back. I
discovered that also. You've also like a

1902
02:01:20.680 --> 02:01:26.239
rebuke. I won't do I retired. It's like I'm like will Ospray with

1903
02:01:26.279 --> 02:01:29.600
the Tiger Driver. Yeah, I
can't do it. It's it's fucked up.

1904
02:01:30.279 --> 02:01:31.439
Yeah. We went back on you
once. Who broke a neck?

1905
02:01:31.520 --> 02:01:36.199
You fractured a neckbar cocky. You
don't you don't let it settle long enough?

1906
02:01:36.279 --> 02:01:39.880
I did it was the poker table. Yeah, I think I did

1907
02:01:39.920 --> 02:01:41.279
it there and I was like,
well, I can just never do this

1908
02:01:41.359 --> 02:01:45.399
again, right, okay? Joe
from New York, Oh my god,

1909
02:01:45.520 --> 02:01:48.039
I can't believe this ship is actually
real. I just saw commercial for sky

1910
02:01:48.319 --> 02:01:53.800
Rizzy Manati didn't just make that?
Shut up? Who let the Zoomer scientists

1911
02:01:54.079 --> 02:01:58.439
name the drug? I hate?
I hate that the commercial is good.

1912
02:01:59.720 --> 02:02:02.359
This long is catching it's his new
drug. What's it doing? It's gonna

1913
02:02:02.359 --> 02:02:08.520
be my new I get my infusion
on Thursday. Very exciting. Do they

1914
02:02:08.600 --> 02:02:11.520
like, like dip you in a
pool with like cucumbers in it or something?

1915
02:02:12.600 --> 02:02:15.680
Jeff Okay, well yeah, get
all scientific about it. Jesus.

1916
02:02:17.560 --> 02:02:20.399
I was like, I it sounds
scary, but like they didn't make it

1917
02:02:20.640 --> 02:02:23.840
then't tell me about side effects,
like, yeah, just come in,

1918
02:02:24.000 --> 02:02:26.600
have somebody drive you. I was
like, oh, they're gonna be side

1919
02:02:26.600 --> 02:02:36.359
effects. I can't. Let's go. Yes, you are the sky Rizzler.

1920
02:02:36.479 --> 02:02:41.319
That's right, sky Wrizzler. I
like it. Uh. Rich from

1921
02:02:41.399 --> 02:02:45.479
Seattle, I've been listening to the
news surrounding Xbox and found myself wondering what

1922
02:02:45.600 --> 02:02:48.199
is next for their hardware. I
mainly game on Xbox because I'm old and

1923
02:02:48.319 --> 02:02:51.479
left PC gaming when kids became a
part of my life. I'm not seeing

1924
02:02:51.479 --> 02:02:56.520
a good argument forgetting whatever hardware they
make next other than the sunk cost in

1925
02:02:56.600 --> 02:03:00.960
my library. So is my future
a gaming PC or if they're a possibility

1926
02:03:00.000 --> 02:03:03.520
of their next console being a low
grade gaming PC open to Steam? Oh?

1927
02:03:03.880 --> 02:03:08.199
Thanks Rich from Seattle. I mean
both of those things could be true

1928
02:03:08.239 --> 02:03:11.479
based on what we've been hearing.
But yeah, but if someone like,

1929
02:03:11.560 --> 02:03:13.880
let's say someone came to you and
they were describing themselves this way, like

1930
02:03:14.159 --> 02:03:16.119
I was in the PC gaming once
I've been playing Xbox. What should I

1931
02:03:16.199 --> 02:03:19.399
do next? Bro? Just seeing
back in the PC gaming he's seen in

1932
02:03:19.439 --> 02:03:24.079
the living room like we it's the
safest option. And I've been shoying this

1933
02:03:24.239 --> 02:03:27.359
up when you have stories like this
on Game of Mornings. I've been chatting

1934
02:03:27.399 --> 02:03:30.359
up people in the Bulb Giant Bomb
Chat a little bit here and there.

1935
02:03:30.399 --> 02:03:32.720
I'm trying to trying to tell people, y'all, you can't just build a

1936
02:03:32.760 --> 02:03:36.079
PC for your living room. Like
I know you might think, like PC

1937
02:03:36.239 --> 02:03:40.279
gaming, Oh this is two thousand
dollars, I need all this suff Now

1938
02:03:40.359 --> 02:03:44.000
you can buy a PC for the
price of console. I know. The

1939
02:03:44.760 --> 02:03:47.119
thing is boots into stemos, so
you control it like a console and you

1940
02:03:47.239 --> 02:03:50.199
just use it like you're right.
And I'm sure we've all done that then,

1941
02:03:50.279 --> 02:03:51.960
like we know how easy it is
and stuff. But I think there

1942
02:03:53.079 --> 02:03:55.479
is a large amount of gamers out
there who, like, you know,

1943
02:03:55.560 --> 02:03:57.880
I think I like, you know, my sister Kayla, she's played games

1944
02:03:57.920 --> 02:04:01.039
her entire life. She's never you
computers, you know, like when like

1945
02:04:01.159 --> 02:04:03.640
when she was starting to stream,
might explain to her the difference between like

1946
02:04:03.640 --> 02:04:06.800
the monitor and the tower and stuff
like that. So the idea of like

1947
02:04:06.920 --> 02:04:11.319
all the little things think of you
have to do when you're getting stuff that

1948
02:04:11.359 --> 02:04:14.359
we do all the time, just
oh changing the resolution, different settings and

1949
02:04:14.399 --> 02:04:15.319
stuff that they've never heard of.
Like, I think there are a lot

1950
02:04:15.359 --> 02:04:19.000
of gamers who just don't know the
first thing about what Steam is, or

1951
02:04:19.319 --> 02:04:23.199
people that play tons of stuff on
PlayStation Xbox because they buy the thing,

1952
02:04:23.319 --> 02:04:26.239
they put it in and it works, you know, so like run Definitely,

1953
02:04:26.319 --> 02:04:28.680
Yeah, I don't say it's as
easy as you think it is for

1954
02:04:28.720 --> 02:04:30.239
a lot of people. No,
No, I am specifically talking about someone

1955
02:04:30.359 --> 02:04:34.960
like this who is already into PC
gaming, and okay, in that case

1956
02:04:35.399 --> 02:04:39.359
that that's the different from someone who's
completely outside of it. I would say

1957
02:04:39.399 --> 02:04:43.039
like steam Deck is a good gateway
to that. It's because it is so

1958
02:04:43.399 --> 02:04:46.960
consoleized through and through. But someone
in Chelse says, five hundred dollars doesn't

1959
02:04:46.960 --> 02:04:49.079
buy you a good game PC.
No, it buys you a console.

1960
02:04:49.479 --> 02:04:54.520
That's why it buys you. You
can just have a console level PC and

1961
02:04:54.640 --> 02:04:59.079
that's okay. It doesn't need to
be doing ray tracing at native four K

1962
02:04:59.199 --> 02:05:02.399
one hundred and twenty f it's okay
for you to have a lower grade PC

1963
02:05:02.680 --> 02:05:06.079
and run at console settings, and
then you just get all the benefits of

1964
02:05:06.119 --> 02:05:10.960
having a PC as well. It
sounds like this person has like an Xbox

1965
02:05:11.039 --> 02:05:13.680
series something right now. Yes,
that's what they are right now in the

1966
02:05:13.760 --> 02:05:16.239
library on there. Yeah. So
look like, if if you're anxious about

1967
02:05:16.239 --> 02:05:19.640
what they're gonna do next, I
think you you can still wait. You're

1968
02:05:19.680 --> 02:05:23.920
gonna be fine with that for a
while. Still, like most of the

1969
02:05:23.960 --> 02:05:26.920
games you're gonna care about are still
going to come out on that console.

1970
02:05:27.079 --> 02:05:29.520
You can see what the next Xbox
is going to look like. If it's

1971
02:05:29.560 --> 02:05:31.119
appealing. If you're antsy, then
yeah, you can go and look into

1972
02:05:31.159 --> 02:05:34.720
building a PC right now, because
that well, that is definitely the most

1973
02:05:34.800 --> 02:05:39.439
future proof thing you could do at
the moment. But I don't think there's

1974
02:05:39.439 --> 02:05:43.279
some urgent rush out for you to
make a decision like that, right yeah.

1975
02:05:43.319 --> 02:05:45.800
And you also have a bit of
a parachute if you are playing on

1976
02:05:45.960 --> 02:05:49.359
Xbox because if you build, if
you do go back to PC gaming in

1977
02:05:49.479 --> 02:05:54.399
whatever form that may take for you, if it is on a Windows machine,

1978
02:05:54.560 --> 02:05:57.359
a lot of that will transfer over, like if you're buying stuff,

1979
02:05:57.399 --> 02:06:00.119
if you're using game Pass, you
can fire up the Xbox. Doesn't you

1980
02:06:00.159 --> 02:06:04.399
know, it's not as seamless,
but there is that method for you if

1981
02:06:04.399 --> 02:06:08.880
you're worried about like controlling in everything
like that. You know, just I

1982
02:06:08.960 --> 02:06:12.800
have a buried back there somewhere,
but like one of those Logitech wireless keyboard

1983
02:06:12.880 --> 02:06:16.039
and trackpad combos. It's very easy
to like get back to that, but

1984
02:06:16.239 --> 02:06:20.159
just in your living room. So
you know, if like Mike said,

1985
02:06:20.199 --> 02:06:24.600
you know, Xbox isn't just gonna
poof vanish overnight. But if you're not

1986
02:06:24.720 --> 02:06:27.800
feeling great about the platform and you
do want to go back, there are

1987
02:06:27.880 --> 02:06:30.319
options for you. And I think
it's easier than ever to get back to

1988
02:06:30.359 --> 02:06:35.079
that if you want to. Yep, definitely all right Next to email,

1989
02:06:35.159 --> 02:06:40.199
good evening, Bombers. This is
Joe from Charlotte. This last Sunday morning,

1990
02:06:40.239 --> 02:06:44.159
I went to bo Jangles for breakfast
and stumbled upon this standy of Biggie

1991
02:06:44.319 --> 02:06:48.800
Kofe Kinkson and Xavier Woods promoting the
new WWE sandwich combo. Aside from being

1992
02:06:48.800 --> 02:06:53.840
objectively hilarious, he got me thinking
about celebrity product endorsements in general, what

1993
02:06:53.960 --> 02:06:57.239
are y'all's favorites, And I'll bring
this episode one could see it real quick,

1994
02:06:57.239 --> 02:07:00.479
just give me a moment. Yeah, it's not really celebrity, but

1995
02:07:00.520 --> 02:07:03.640
Jeff's uh pod racing shirt is making
me think of an episode one came out

1996
02:07:03.760 --> 02:07:09.159
and like, like all three of
those restaurants owned by Pepsi with Pizza Hut,

1997
02:07:09.359 --> 02:07:14.479
Taco Bell, and KFC Giant episode
Yeah, and each one represented one

1998
02:07:14.520 --> 02:07:15.960
of the three different planets from the
movie, and I like, I was

1999
02:07:16.000 --> 02:07:18.720
like, this is important. Like
I loved going there and getting all the

2000
02:07:18.840 --> 02:07:23.880
stupid crap and jar Jar Binks cups
you can get and everything like that.

2001
02:07:24.000 --> 02:07:28.359
It was good times, like the
purflect Ravioli for all Mankind, the Chef

2002
02:07:28.399 --> 02:07:31.880
Boyerd. Yeah. I also liked
j R. Screaming about Skittles over the

2003
02:07:32.000 --> 02:07:38.239
course of like weeks, just trying
to make just trying to make Jerry Lawler

2004
02:07:38.359 --> 02:07:45.680
Last Voice Party delicious, delicious,
just like got more and more with Final

2005
02:07:45.720 --> 02:07:51.199
Fantasy X two. Yeah, that's
good. Yeah, it's my favorite brought

2006
02:07:51.279 --> 02:07:56.520
up. I don't you love Logan
Paul whenever he comes out with Prime during

2007
02:07:56.560 --> 02:08:01.800
as Popera, Logan, it's good
wrestling. H This emailer also said,

2008
02:08:03.079 --> 02:08:07.680
mine, my favorite is the Japanese
ad featuring Hugh Jackman. Bonus podcast points

2009
02:08:07.720 --> 02:08:11.119
for the team if they can guess
what the product is before the end of

2010
02:08:11.239 --> 02:08:13.840
the ad. I'm just gonna play
it. You guys should be able to

2011
02:08:13.880 --> 02:08:16.920
hear it. You guys hear it? Yes, yeah, you guys can

2012
02:08:18.159 --> 02:08:24.560
see it on the he's ringing a
magazine about himself a handsome man. It

2013
02:08:24.600 --> 02:08:28.039
looks like it's for lypt and tea
or is it not. It's for Lipton

2014
02:08:28.079 --> 02:08:33.279
t Mike, you got it?
Wow? From him holding the lyptin ized

2015
02:08:33.319 --> 02:08:37.039
tea is one that stallone they had
the like celebrity death match looking saloon doing

2016
02:08:37.079 --> 02:08:41.840
a Lypton brisk. I remember that. Yeah, yeah, that's brisk.

2017
02:08:41.039 --> 02:08:43.800
Yeah yeah, that was from back
in the day. I don't think that

2018
02:08:43.880 --> 02:08:48.159
was Japan like this one. But
hey man, all right there he goes,

2019
02:08:48.199 --> 02:08:52.800
yeah, yeah, this is good
man. Japanese commercials are so much

2020
02:08:52.840 --> 02:08:56.279
better. I thought he was gonna
walk on the water. That would have

2021
02:08:56.279 --> 02:09:03.239
been so sick. Yeah yeah.
Do you guys have any other favorites celebrity

2022
02:09:03.319 --> 02:09:09.000
endorsements. I hope New Day are
getting paid for this, unlike the old

2023
02:09:09.039 --> 02:09:15.239
regime where it just went against your
downside and they're getting paid since I left.

2024
02:09:16.119 --> 02:09:18.079
Yeah, I would hope. So
they should be able to make those

2025
02:09:18.119 --> 02:09:22.239
deals themselves on their own, Wouldn't
that what the whole thing is, all

2026
02:09:22.359 --> 02:09:26.079
right, mister knowledge bro from Sweden? Right z in. This is an

2027
02:09:26.199 --> 02:09:30.239
update on when we talked about zen
on some podcasts. Might have been the

2028
02:09:30.279 --> 02:09:33.439
voicemail dump truck. Zen is a
form of snooze. Is that how you

2029
02:09:33.479 --> 02:09:37.079
say? It's snooze? Snuff snooze, which is who am I asking you?

2030
02:09:37.119 --> 02:09:41.239
Guys have probably never done it either, which is deeply ingrained into the

2031
02:09:41.319 --> 02:09:43.760
Swedish culture and is like a form
of chewing tobacco but you put it under

2032
02:09:43.800 --> 02:09:48.239
your lip and look like an idiot. Regular snooze is fucking horrific, but

2033
02:09:48.359 --> 02:09:50.920
like thirty percent of all Swedes do
it. It is as common as cigarettes.

2034
02:09:52.279 --> 02:09:56.119
Zen is like the vanilla version of
snooze without all the life threatening stuff,

2035
02:09:56.159 --> 02:10:01.000
but only the addiction stuff. Snooze
is really big amongst Swedish hockey dudes.

2036
02:10:01.079 --> 02:10:05.159
Tell Jeff Baklar that almost every Swedish
player in the NHL has been doing

2037
02:10:05.239 --> 02:10:09.479
snooze since they were fourteen years old. Yes, a recommendation don't do snooze

2038
02:10:09.600 --> 02:10:13.800
ors in it is disgusting. You
look like shit, you smell like shit,

2039
02:10:13.039 --> 02:10:16.840
your teeth are destroyed, and you
are presented to a nice collection of

2040
02:10:16.920 --> 02:10:20.319
potential cancers. So do a good
amount of out of seven kansas. Oh

2041
02:10:20.439 --> 02:10:26.039
yeah, sure, yeah. Write
like chewing tobacco like zen is like little

2042
02:10:26.079 --> 02:10:30.239
pouches so you don't have to spit
anything, and it's like there's no tobacco

2043
02:10:30.319 --> 02:10:33.000
in there, okay, And it's
become very popular with like finance bros.

2044
02:10:33.000 --> 02:10:35.680
Because they can like get a buzz
during the day and not have to go

2045
02:10:35.760 --> 02:10:39.439
smoke cigarettes. The only time I
ever was like really around a lot of

2046
02:10:39.479 --> 02:10:43.840
people who did chooting tobacco is when
I worked in the restaurant industry in the

2047
02:10:43.920 --> 02:10:46.039
kitchen. It's only everybody was doing
it for some reason. I don't know.

2048
02:10:46.119 --> 02:10:52.239
That's exactly where I want my chewing
tobacco to be is the cops.

2049
02:10:52.560 --> 02:10:54.399
Yes, I do not, well
know. I don't want to see the

2050
02:10:54.439 --> 02:10:56.760
cups. It's like the last thing
on earth I want to look at is

2051
02:10:56.840 --> 02:11:00.319
someone's chewing tobacco cup. Yeah,
I thought I had a bad and where

2052
02:11:00.359 --> 02:11:03.439
it's In my welding class in high
school, everyone did too, because you

2053
02:11:03.520 --> 02:11:07.079
know the kind of guys who would
do that, And then where do they

2054
02:11:07.119 --> 02:11:11.000
do it? They want to spit
it in the buckets of water that we

2055
02:11:11.000 --> 02:11:15.479
would dunk our hot metal into,
and so the teacher had to like sit

2056
02:11:15.560 --> 02:11:18.880
everyone down. Look, guys,
first of all, you can't do cho

2057
02:11:18.000 --> 02:11:22.239
I'm not saying you can't, but
you can't spit in the buckets. Guys,

2058
02:11:22.319 --> 02:11:28.079
come on good times. Uh,
hey, bombers Jeff from Quebec Grub

2059
02:11:28.119 --> 02:11:33.239
mentioned he'd like to talk about everyone's
past employment. So here goes. What

2060
02:11:33.439 --> 02:11:37.119
was your favorite job and worst job
you had before you got in the gaming

2061
02:11:37.399 --> 02:11:41.880
slash streaming industry. For me,
my favorite was easily movie projectionists back when

2062
02:11:41.880 --> 02:11:46.359
there was actual film worst was cleaning
kid vomit at the same theater. Uh.

2063
02:11:46.720 --> 02:11:48.840
And then Beckler doesn't need answer because
he's not here, cheers Jeff from

2064
02:11:48.960 --> 02:11:52.880
Quebec, who wants to start,
Mike, you want to go? Yeah.

2065
02:11:52.000 --> 02:11:54.439
I actually had a couple of friends
who were film projectionists, like right

2066
02:11:54.479 --> 02:11:58.159
before that stopped being a thing.
These a couple of times I would just

2067
02:11:58.239 --> 02:11:58.880
kind of go up there and hang
out with them, So that was pret

2068
02:12:00.159 --> 02:12:03.720
fun. But for me, my
best job. I worked at a law

2069
02:12:03.359 --> 02:12:07.720
a law from just like like helping
file theirs their stuff way me my friend.

2070
02:12:07.119 --> 02:12:11.199
It was a very easy job.
They just had some like dungeon basement

2071
02:12:11.199 --> 02:12:13.039
of a bunch of files. We
just put on music. We had to

2072
02:12:13.119 --> 02:12:16.880
like go look through each file find
out when the case ended it right in

2073
02:12:16.000 --> 02:12:20.359
on the front. But mostly just
kind of goofed around a bunch. That

2074
02:12:20.560 --> 02:12:22.920
was easy. The pizza place I
worked at, it was that was like

2075
02:12:24.000 --> 02:12:26.439
a busy, tough job, but
that was kind of fun. It was

2076
02:12:26.479 --> 02:12:30.560
an interesting collection of characters. I
worked at a different restaurant where I was

2077
02:12:30.640 --> 02:12:33.359
just a dishwasher that was poorly managed
and just not very fun and that was

2078
02:12:35.119 --> 02:12:37.239
a lame summer. But like,
you know, nothing crazy or anything.

2079
02:12:37.680 --> 02:12:43.680
But I think that's basically had those
three jobs, then like some stupid like

2080
02:12:43.760 --> 02:12:48.199
campus jobs like oh I watched the
computer labs in the English department, sure,

2081
02:12:48.560 --> 02:12:52.159
yeah, and you know the pizza
one. Until I started doing this

2082
02:12:52.319 --> 02:12:54.600
full time, So just like five
jobs or so, nothing crazy. I

2083
02:12:54.720 --> 02:12:58.520
had like twenty jobs. Yeah,
yeah, but you had a lot of

2084
02:12:58.600 --> 02:13:01.640
them. I did quit it and
most of them, yeah, And then

2085
02:13:01.640 --> 02:13:03.800
I got fired from I got fired
from a couple including for my favorite job,

2086
02:13:03.880 --> 02:13:09.920
fed X, I worked at the
sorting center at the FedEx outside of

2087
02:13:09.960 --> 02:13:15.920
Columbus, Ohio. So big like
containers would come in off of the planes

2088
02:13:16.239 --> 02:13:18.600
with a ton of packages, and
then someone was in those containers throwing them

2089
02:13:18.600 --> 02:13:22.039
on the conveyor belt career belts.
All the containers. There were people of

2090
02:13:22.039 --> 02:13:26.199
the containers. They would throw out
the gun onto the conveyor belt and they

2091
02:13:26.239 --> 02:13:30.119
would all get sent into the center
of the building. And that's where I

2092
02:13:30.439 --> 02:13:33.640
was. So there's this huge like
tray filled with packages, and there's like

2093
02:13:35.000 --> 02:13:37.079
ten of us and we would all
get our own pile here in front of

2094
02:13:37.159 --> 02:13:41.760
us, and then there were several
conveyor belts marked with the location that each

2095
02:13:41.920 --> 02:13:43.640
box had like labeled on him,
and we had to physically pick up the

2096
02:13:43.680 --> 02:13:46.479
box and put it on the right
conveyor belt so it could go to its

2097
02:13:46.520 --> 02:13:50.600
next to the location. And it
was four hour shifts of just doing this

2098
02:13:50.720 --> 02:13:56.479
pretty much NonStop, and I could
like shut my brain off and just go

2099
02:13:56.760 --> 02:13:58.640
super fast and just move things,
and it was like a good exercise.

2100
02:14:00.119 --> 02:14:01.319
And I didn't have to deal with
anybody. I didn't have to talk to

2101
02:14:01.359 --> 02:14:05.840
anybody. It was awesome, it
was perfect. Well, problem was it's

2102
02:14:05.880 --> 02:14:09.039
like you were part time for a
reason and they weren't going to make you

2103
02:14:09.119 --> 02:14:11.720
full time, and so I wasn't
making enough money and so I stopped caring

2104
02:14:11.039 --> 02:14:13.159
and then I came in late too
many times and then they fired me.

2105
02:14:13.399 --> 02:14:18.000
So podcasts and stuff or was that
during the podcast? It was? It

2106
02:14:18.039 --> 02:14:22.960
was it was the very beginning to
podcast. Honestly, maybe I wasn't listening

2107
02:14:22.000 --> 02:14:24.000
to podcasts. I was probably listening
to like music. It might have been

2108
02:14:24.039 --> 02:14:26.920
like the iPod was maybe just coming
out at this point, because it was

2109
02:14:26.960 --> 02:14:30.680
two thousand and one, two thousand
and two. When did the i pod

2110
02:14:30.760 --> 02:14:35.479
come out, Like two thousand two. Yeah, so I might not have

2111
02:14:35.520 --> 02:14:37.760
been able to afford one yet.
Yeah. So, but we definitely like

2112
02:14:37.800 --> 02:14:41.039
would have music on or some something
like that on the shift then show up

2113
02:14:41.159 --> 02:14:46.479
late. I probably would have.
Yeah. Then. My least favorite job

2114
02:14:46.680 --> 02:14:50.319
was Formaggio's Pizza on Ohio State Campus. It was I worked as the pizza

2115
02:14:50.359 --> 02:14:54.760
delivery guy, so they paid me
less than in one wage because I was

2116
02:14:54.760 --> 02:14:58.479
supposed to get tips, but there
were very few deliveries. So there's a

2117
02:14:58.600 --> 02:15:01.000
sign in the back of the store
that the government makes you put it up

2118
02:15:01.039 --> 02:15:03.399
that says, if you don't make
this much money per hour as a tipped

2119
02:15:03.399 --> 02:15:05.920
employee, the company has to make
up the difference. And I kept track

2120
02:15:05.960 --> 02:15:09.439
of that for a while and I
presented it to them, and then they

2121
02:15:09.560 --> 02:15:11.920
fired me because I asked for the
money that they owed me. So then

2122
02:15:11.960 --> 02:15:18.760
I took that to this the Department
of Commerce at the Ohio, Ohio government,

2123
02:15:18.800 --> 02:15:20.239
and said, hey, they won't
pay me, and they're like,

2124
02:15:20.279 --> 02:15:22.039
okay, well we'll get back to
you. And then they sent me a

2125
02:15:22.159 --> 02:15:24.640
check for two thousand dollars like a
few weeks later, because they just did

2126
02:15:24.640 --> 02:15:28.359
all the work for me. Happy
happy ending. But those guys, those

2127
02:15:28.359 --> 02:15:31.600
guys sucked. I watched them fire
a bunch of people for various reasons like

2128
02:15:31.720 --> 02:15:33.279
that, where they like asked the
question they're like and they never fired like,

2129
02:15:33.359 --> 02:15:35.479
oh, just go home today and
we'll call you and let you know,

2130
02:15:35.600 --> 02:15:39.479
and then they would never call you
back. So I realized, ever

2131
02:15:39.560 --> 02:15:43.199
since I was fourteen, I've like
always had two jobs. I don't think

2132
02:15:43.199 --> 02:15:45.640
I've ever been fired. I've had
like a good amount of jobs, but

2133
02:15:45.680 --> 02:15:48.000
I usually stayed with them pretty long. But yeah, I've never been laid

2134
02:15:48.039 --> 02:15:50.039
off. Or fired. Well,
you were like you were You're kind of

2135
02:15:50.079 --> 02:15:54.039
a go getter Dan, right,
Like that's like the movie job like where

2136
02:15:54.079 --> 02:15:56.239
you were like, I'm going to
try to become an assistant manager. And

2137
02:15:56.319 --> 02:15:58.720
that's when I I started getting I
started run I was fourteen. When I

2138
02:15:58.760 --> 02:16:03.520
was ten, I started there,
and I was at McDonald's and then I

2139
02:16:03.520 --> 02:16:05.760
equip McDonald's and when I turned sixteen, it was so that was my favorite

2140
02:16:07.239 --> 02:16:11.680
to answer the question, AMC and
funkal Land at the same time. So

2141
02:16:11.880 --> 02:16:15.880
that was from like sixteen until college. I worked at Yeah, I got

2142
02:16:15.920 --> 02:16:18.680
free movies, free video games all
through that high school period where I didn't

2143
02:16:18.680 --> 02:16:22.039
have a lot of money, but
I've worked two jobs and they were across

2144
02:16:22.079 --> 02:16:24.079
the parking lot from each other.
It was a you know, a Laitha

2145
02:16:24.119 --> 02:16:26.840
Kansas. It's one hundred and ninteenth
and String Lane. I would like finish

2146
02:16:26.000 --> 02:16:30.840
up a Saturday shift at Funko Land, which turned into game Stop while I

2147
02:16:30.880 --> 02:16:33.079
was there, and then I would
just like change in the bathroom, walk

2148
02:16:33.120 --> 02:16:35.360
over to the AMC thirty and just
work my night shift there. So that

2149
02:16:35.440 --> 02:16:39.200
was awesome. I was just like
constantly like hanging out in that parking lot

2150
02:16:39.319 --> 02:16:41.920
like playing games at work or going
over and just watching a bunch of free

2151
02:16:41.959 --> 02:16:43.239
movies, and we would see stuff
beforeand like I was working there during the

2152
02:16:43.239 --> 02:16:46.959
prequel trilogy and stuff, so we
would see that before. Like I remember

2153
02:16:46.040 --> 02:16:48.719
like seeing that the night before and
you'd walk out and you'd see the line

2154
02:16:48.760 --> 02:16:52.200
like wrapped around the building and be
like, oh, I know what happened.

2155
02:16:52.239 --> 02:16:54.719
Like that was such a like cool
feeling as the teenager. So that

2156
02:16:54.799 --> 02:17:00.200
was probably my favorite pre gaming industry
one is those two. The worst was

2157
02:17:00.920 --> 02:17:05.040
Garman the GPS company. It was
like post college, I was still writing

2158
02:17:05.120 --> 02:17:07.040
you know, game reviews and stuff
for the paper and everything, but I

2159
02:17:07.239 --> 02:17:11.559
you know, was applying at IgM
and Game Informer and game Spot and everything

2160
02:17:11.719 --> 02:17:13.799
and didn't get jobs. So I
was like, fuck, I went to

2161
02:17:13.840 --> 02:17:16.840
college for all this time. I
put all my eggs into this like games

2162
02:17:16.000 --> 02:17:20.000
review bucket and it's not paying off. I mean, I'm still getting free

2163
02:17:20.040 --> 02:17:24.120
games and stuff and I'm not getting
paid and I'm just doing like GPS shit

2164
02:17:24.399 --> 02:17:26.200
like with it. Like a lout
of people that like are just you know,

2165
02:17:26.399 --> 02:17:28.319
basically in high school and like here
I am five years of college.

2166
02:17:28.360 --> 02:17:31.479
I'm like getting paid the same and
like helping old people try to like acquire

2167
02:17:31.559 --> 02:17:35.799
satellites on their you know, Garmin
newbie devices and stuff like, Man,

2168
02:17:35.879 --> 02:17:37.360
I fucked up. I really fucked
up. Like I really went hard on

2169
02:17:37.440 --> 02:17:41.719
this games reviewing thing and it did
not pay off. Holy shit. And

2170
02:17:41.760 --> 02:17:43.200
then I remember when oh I had
that moment for sure. Yeah, and

2171
02:17:43.239 --> 02:17:46.000
then that morning McNamara called me and
it's like, hey, they want to

2172
02:17:46.040 --> 02:17:50.959
move to Minnesota. I remember walking
into Garman to give my two weeks with

2173
02:17:50.120 --> 02:17:54.079
them. I wasn't shitty about it, but in my head I was shitty.

2174
02:17:54.120 --> 02:17:56.440
But I was just like, oh, I'm gonna tell them I'm fucking

2175
02:17:56.559 --> 02:17:58.200
leaving this shitty as and I'm gonna
go get paid to play video games.

2176
02:17:58.239 --> 02:18:03.639
And that was about the best feeling
in the world. So yeah, but

2177
02:18:03.879 --> 02:18:05.959
that was the worst job was just
yeah, call center tech supports should sucked.

2178
02:18:07.680 --> 02:18:09.520
Yeah, that's w because you loved
working for events, so like at

2179
02:18:09.639 --> 02:18:16.159
w W. Of course, a
good point I forgot. I worked for

2180
02:18:16.239 --> 02:18:18.680
a call center for one week.
That was I worked for a call center

2181
02:18:18.719 --> 02:18:22.319
for what do you mean you worked
at a call center for one week?

2182
02:18:24.479 --> 02:18:26.360
After a week, because I turns
out I'm not very well equipped to have

2183
02:18:26.479 --> 02:18:31.559
people yell at me because I'm you
know, forced to bother them. So

2184
02:18:31.799 --> 02:18:35.079
yeah, I didn't like that.
The call center I worked for was a

2185
02:18:35.280 --> 02:18:37.799
call support, so they would call
in and ask for help, and I

2186
02:18:37.840 --> 02:18:39.479
didn't know they would yell at me
still, but I would. I was

2187
02:18:39.520 --> 02:18:43.040
able to handle that. If you
don't if you don't want help, that's

2188
02:18:43.079 --> 02:18:46.520
fine, but I'm here to help. The one I was at in college

2189
02:18:46.719 --> 02:18:50.479
was calling the alumni of KU University, Kansas to get the money. I

2190
02:18:50.559 --> 02:18:54.440
did that for like four years.
I think, like my whole social circle

2191
02:18:54.479 --> 02:18:56.360
in college is all from the call
center and stuff. Uh and I got

2192
02:18:56.360 --> 02:19:00.520
all my friends to work there and
everything, and uh yeah, they put

2193
02:19:00.520 --> 02:19:03.719
you on like okay tonight you're on
the pool of the School for Social Welfare.

2194
02:19:03.959 --> 02:19:05.520
So it's people that like graduated,
spend a bunch of money, oh

2195
02:19:05.639 --> 02:19:09.120
a bunch of money, and are
not getting paid well. And you always

2196
02:19:09.159 --> 02:19:11.440
had to start with the ask ladder. You had to start with would you

2197
02:19:11.520 --> 02:19:15.719
like to join the Deans Club with
a donation of a thousand dollars? And

2198
02:19:15.799 --> 02:19:18.600
you would just get laughed at and
so like. But then you get put

2199
02:19:18.639 --> 02:19:20.719
on like the School of Medicine one
and you'd see like, oh, every

2200
02:19:20.799 --> 02:19:24.360
year since nineteen seventy seven they've given
five thousand dollars, Like all right,

2201
02:19:24.479 --> 02:19:28.040
easy, night tonight. So just
totally depend on have you seen the John

2202
02:19:28.079 --> 02:19:31.120
mulaney bit about that where it's like, uh, it's like would you like

2203
02:19:31.159 --> 02:19:35.520
to give us more money? Would
you like to clothe and feed me and

2204
02:19:35.600 --> 02:19:37.000
house me? It's like no,
would you stop doing that? It's like

2205
02:19:37.159 --> 02:19:39.360
you fell in love with your school, like you just like you fell him

2206
02:19:39.440 --> 02:19:43.120
up with the sex worker or whatever. So yeah, it's a good bit,

2207
02:19:43.879 --> 02:19:46.719
all right. No marketing though,
Yeah, oh yeah, sure that's

2208
02:19:46.799 --> 02:19:50.920
right. I knew he's moving off. I was just like, I'm just

2209
02:19:50.920 --> 02:19:54.280
still cook for a second. Listen, you're fourteen years old. How many

2210
02:19:54.360 --> 02:19:56.600
jobs have you had? Well?
I didn't work in school, because when

2211
02:19:56.600 --> 02:20:01.319
you're broke as shit, you need
to work your ass off in school in

2212
02:20:01.479 --> 02:20:05.600
order to just you know, get
into college. So I've had just like

2213
02:20:05.719 --> 02:20:09.239
a decade issh of odd jobs up
until you know, getting this gig.

2214
02:20:09.719 --> 02:20:13.799
And easily it's only that you bring
up like shipping and stuff, Jeff,

2215
02:20:13.840 --> 02:20:18.799
because that was easily My least favorite
job was I worn shipping and receiving at

2216
02:20:18.920 --> 02:20:24.319
a car dealership, which you know
when you when you can manage and it's

2217
02:20:24.399 --> 02:20:28.719
just you know, you get a
giant like bin of shit and they just

2218
02:20:28.799 --> 02:20:31.440
scan it and you put it where
it needs to go. That's totally cool.

2219
02:20:31.799 --> 02:20:35.000
Problem is I was doing the work
of entire team because they refused to

2220
02:20:35.120 --> 02:20:39.360
hire anybody else because how you know, the owner, how's a millionaire become

2221
02:20:39.360 --> 02:20:43.000
a millionaire not spending money on anything? And so yeah, I was busting

2222
02:20:43.120 --> 02:20:48.200
my butt for barely any money,
but with stable, full time work.

2223
02:20:48.239 --> 02:20:50.479
So I kept doing it. And
uh, hey, that's how I learned

2224
02:20:50.479 --> 02:20:52.879
how to drive a forklift. So
that's on of it. Yeah. Man,

2225
02:20:54.600 --> 02:20:56.600
the the other ship in receiving when
I did, I did a couple,

2226
02:20:56.680 --> 02:21:01.360
but uh the Jcpenny warehouse, that
one was rough because it was like

2227
02:21:01.479 --> 02:21:05.040
putting away towels or put no picking
towels to put for orders for stores,

2228
02:21:05.239 --> 02:21:07.520
and it was all towels all the
time, and so I was like,

2229
02:21:07.639 --> 02:21:11.079
and it was that the towels were
stored in cardboard. So this was probably

2230
02:21:11.239 --> 02:21:16.600
the driest place on earth, and
my whole body would come home chapped because

2231
02:21:16.600 --> 02:21:20.399
there was just no moisture in the
air. It was all getting absorbed by

2232
02:21:20.440 --> 02:21:22.559
the towels and the cardboard and just
rose and rose and rows of them.

2233
02:21:22.639 --> 02:21:26.239
So it was it was miserable.
And that's the that's the job I did

2234
02:21:26.479 --> 02:21:28.559
where my friend was like, I
gave you a hit of acid, but

2235
02:21:28.600 --> 02:21:31.840
I'm gonna take it unless you take
it tonight before you go to work,

2236
02:21:31.239 --> 02:21:35.280
Like, okay, here we go, I guess. So that was a

2237
02:21:35.319 --> 02:21:39.600
good time. I just have I
technically been fired if in college I accepted

2238
02:21:39.639 --> 02:21:43.479
a job as the Bigs Barbecue Chicken
who dressed up in a chicken suit and

2239
02:21:43.559 --> 02:21:46.760
stood on the side of Iowa Street
in Lawrence, Kansas And it was supposed

2240
02:21:46.760 --> 02:21:50.479
to dance for cars with the big
sign. But then I woke up my

2241
02:21:50.600 --> 02:21:52.959
first day and I was hung over
and it was like one hundred and two

2242
02:21:54.000 --> 02:21:56.600
degrees outside and I didn't show up
and I never heard from them, So

2243
02:21:56.799 --> 02:22:00.840
like, does that count is getting
fired if I except for the job?

2244
02:22:01.639 --> 02:22:03.239
To me, if you don't show
up, that count. But to me

2245
02:22:03.360 --> 02:22:05.879
that sounds like quitting. Okay,
I quit. Yeah, I quit as

2246
02:22:05.879 --> 02:22:07.879
the big Barbecue QUI okay, cool? Cool, Yeah, I think it's

2247
02:22:07.959 --> 02:22:11.319
on that side of the thing.
Cool. Yeah, completely relate to that.

2248
02:22:11.520 --> 02:22:15.799
My favorite job would have been to
just work out best Buy because like

2249
02:22:15.920 --> 02:22:18.719
as far as like retail goes,
that's a very really chill environment in there,

2250
02:22:18.760 --> 02:22:20.600
you know, like you go and
do a best Buy and it's kind

2251
02:22:20.639 --> 02:22:24.559
of just like everything's kind of relaxed. Actually, is that way working there

2252
02:22:24.600 --> 02:22:26.719
too? What section were you in? I started as a cashier, and

2253
02:22:26.760 --> 02:22:31.239
that I did like customer service stuff
because you know, I have to deal

2254
02:22:31.319 --> 02:22:33.879
with some shittier people but also get
paid more money. But it was it

2255
02:22:33.959 --> 02:22:39.520
was cool, Like obviously working at
a text store, the break room was

2256
02:22:39.799 --> 02:22:45.000
ball or Gigantic TV, all the
consoles set up with like all the latest

2257
02:22:45.040 --> 02:22:48.840
games because yeah we expense one whatever, and that was really cool. So

2258
02:22:48.079 --> 02:22:52.440
I was for some reason they put
me in digital imaging, like I got

2259
02:22:52.520 --> 02:22:54.879
hired. I listen it was injured
as cameras. It was like selling like

2260
02:22:54.920 --> 02:23:00.479
a three megapixel code and stuff like
that, and I was like right across

2261
02:23:00.479 --> 02:23:03.200
from the media section I wanted to
be in so I would see the guys

2262
02:23:03.200 --> 02:23:07.200
over there like giving people recommendations on
video games and stuff and just outright lying

2263
02:23:07.239 --> 02:23:09.559
to customers like yeah, you know, the next Halo is going to be

2264
02:23:09.600 --> 02:23:11.680
on PlayStation, Like it's not public
don't tell anyone that, but next Halo's

2265
02:23:11.680 --> 02:23:15.000
gonna be I want to run over
there. In fact, no, that's

2266
02:23:15.079 --> 02:23:22.760
bad relations. Jeff Grubb. Yeah, I don't know. My brother worked

2267
02:23:22.760 --> 02:23:24.840
at Best Buy for a while and
I had a freend of did too.

2268
02:23:26.280 --> 02:23:30.040
I didn't like it that much.
I didn't last too long. All right,

2269
02:23:30.319 --> 02:23:33.520
Uh, I'm just getting the what
we learned? Ready here, give

2270
02:23:33.559 --> 02:23:37.319
me a second. Wow, there
we go? All right, what we

2271
02:23:37.440 --> 02:23:39.280
learned today? I actually know they
can't hear it? There they can now?

2272
02:23:41.000 --> 02:23:43.280
Uh. We learned that Bailey is
the one who claps now. We

2273
02:23:43.399 --> 02:23:50.799
learned that Jeff needs Jonathan. We
also learned Mike dreams about Jeff Grubb and

2274
02:23:50.159 --> 02:23:56.040
embarrassing him. Of course, Ben
Hanson and Mike Manatti are probably not serial

2275
02:23:56.120 --> 02:24:00.639
killers. And of course we learned
Dan only finds pleasure in making rangers kids

2276
02:24:00.680 --> 02:24:07.760
cry. Very important, very important. All right, there's that. Okay,

2277
02:24:07.879 --> 02:24:11.399
what do we have happening on Giant
Bomb This week? We will have

2278
02:24:11.120 --> 02:24:16.159
more GB sixteen videos will be going
up, those out, and we will

2279
02:24:16.360 --> 02:24:28.479
return the side which one hell are
you gonna do without anyone here on Friday

2280
02:24:28.559 --> 02:24:35.280
show? So yes, yes,
I'm gonna get Mike in there. I

2281
02:24:35.959 --> 02:24:39.159
heard that there's some people on the
staff who are interested in any S World

2282
02:24:39.239 --> 02:24:41.959
Championships, so I might bring them
on Bailey included, so we'll see if

2283
02:24:41.959 --> 02:24:45.440
we can get them on board.
But you to play by myself. I'll

2284
02:24:45.440 --> 02:24:48.079
play We're friends on Switch obviously,
right like me and yes, okay,

2285
02:24:48.159 --> 02:24:50.520
well I will certainly be playing it
tomorrow and while I'm traveling stuff like that,

2286
02:24:50.600 --> 02:24:54.719
so I'll try to make sure any
of my times are uploaded and so

2287
02:24:54.879 --> 02:24:56.840
like, yes, so I will
in spirit be competing with you on Friday,

2288
02:24:56.879 --> 02:24:58.840
exactly. Yeah, I can bring
my switch with me. I can

2289
02:24:58.879 --> 02:25:03.639
do yeah, yeah, just starting
certain times, and we'll make it happen.

2290
02:25:03.399 --> 02:25:07.760
And while we're playing live, we'll
probably just I'll probably just show my

2291
02:25:07.799 --> 02:25:09.040
gameplay, but maybe we get Mike's
in there and stuff and we can do

2292
02:25:09.159 --> 02:25:13.639
some fun competition stuff. It'll be
good. Well, speaking of travel though,

2293
02:25:13.719 --> 02:25:16.840
speaking of my little being out here
over the weekend, right, I'm

2294
02:25:16.879 --> 02:25:22.239
going to evo Evo's this weekend,
and so if anyone listening is going to

2295
02:25:22.399 --> 02:25:26.639
be there, make sure to say
hi and not challenge to fight me.

2296
02:25:26.840 --> 02:25:31.159
As Jan keeps saying, like,
look, maybe may I'll bring my Steam

2297
02:25:31.200 --> 02:25:33.879
deck maybe I'll have a dog.
Maybe you can fight me anytime anywhere.

2298
02:25:33.959 --> 02:25:37.559
Who knows, Maybe that can make
for a nice feature. Maybe if you

2299
02:25:37.680 --> 02:25:41.799
say hi, you could be part
of a certain log of my travels that

2300
02:25:41.799 --> 02:25:43.680
I might be working on after the
trip. Who could say? All right,

2301
02:25:45.360 --> 02:25:48.079
but yeah, looking forward to that. And then I haven't had chance

2302
02:25:48.120 --> 02:25:52.920
to talk about this yet, but
I just wanted to briefly mention the the

2303
02:25:52.959 --> 02:25:58.399
Melgear Scanlon project that you know went
up and everything. I'm glad everyone seems

2304
02:25:58.399 --> 02:26:00.479
to love that we did that,
that we just put all of it up

2305
02:26:00.559 --> 02:26:03.920
on this great YouTube channel. So
yeah, if if anyone wants to go

2306
02:26:05.120 --> 02:26:07.719
check that out, it's all available, its entirety, every single thing.

2307
02:26:09.040 --> 02:26:13.399
I made sure to take the files
as they were and then just merge them.

2308
02:26:13.479 --> 02:26:16.760
There's been no editing, no recompression, no changes. It's just the

2309
02:26:16.879 --> 02:26:20.799
videos as you remember them back in
the day, just now on YouTube.

2310
02:26:20.840 --> 02:26:22.360
And part of why we did that
is because now you can share it with

2311
02:26:22.440 --> 02:26:26.520
your friends. And I already saw
a bunch of comments being like, this

2312
02:26:26.760 --> 02:26:28.319
is one of the ways I'm going
to get my friends into a giant bomb.

2313
02:26:28.319 --> 02:26:31.959
Because we know that it can be
difficult to get people into that back

2314
02:26:33.040 --> 02:26:35.360
caalog especially. You know, nowadays
you show them, you want to show

2315
02:26:35.399 --> 02:26:37.959
them Giant Bomb. You say,
hey, here's the newest Episolte BombCast,

2316
02:26:39.079 --> 02:26:41.920
Here's Black Club, And that's very
easy, but you want them to like

2317
02:26:41.000 --> 02:26:43.760
see the older stuff. That's been
kind of difficult. So now you can

2318
02:26:43.840 --> 02:26:48.120
be like, here's the playlist for
melgear Scanlon, go have fun with that

2319
02:26:48.200 --> 02:26:52.000
on your own time and without specifics
and without timeframe. Just know that I

2320
02:26:52.200 --> 02:26:56.319
am a big fan of having that
stuff, that old stuff easily accessible,

2321
02:26:56.600 --> 02:26:58.879
and I've been talking to Sean about
it, and I would like to do

2322
02:27:00.079 --> 02:27:03.360
more of that in the near future. So yes, it's a It's a

2323
02:27:03.399 --> 02:27:05.840
good thing to do, especially on
when holidays happened, because it was like,

2324
02:27:05.840 --> 02:27:07.200
oh, July fourth, this is
the most patriotic thing I could do.

2325
02:27:07.239 --> 02:27:11.000
Today's watch Mel where it makes sense. We we have stuff we're cooking.

2326
02:27:11.159 --> 02:27:16.040
Yep, excellent, great work.
Boys appreciate that. Uh so,

2327
02:27:16.159 --> 02:27:22.520
yeah, Tyker Grebble happen, Blake
Club and then on Thursday you can expect

2328
02:27:22.959 --> 02:27:24.639
voicemail down truck. We will do
that. I've got ways to make that

2329
02:27:24.760 --> 02:27:28.040
happen. We'll get a crew in
there for that. U P. F

2330
02:27:28.399 --> 02:27:31.000
we will be the n S World
Championships, and then we'll do a BCR.

2331
02:27:31.079 --> 02:27:33.479
We'll do a BCR this week.
I'll get some super people in there

2332
02:27:33.520 --> 02:27:37.520
as well, and maybe circle a
week from Priday on your calendar, because

2333
02:27:37.520 --> 02:27:39.680
I think it'd be a great time
to do the anime Mario party. Let's

2334
02:27:39.719 --> 02:27:50.879
let's look into that. Sounds good? You heard it all right? How

2335
02:27:50.879 --> 02:27:52.559
does Jen end this show? Does
he say buy or something? Does he

2336
02:27:52.600 --> 02:27:58.440
have a catch for his He did
what we learned here and then yeah,

2337
