00:00:26,879 --> 00:00:29,879
It's the Internet. You're busy,
let's do this. Welcome to the Game

2
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,520
Mesticides podcast. This is the podcast
where we decide everything about the world of

3
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,000
video games so you never have to
think for yourself. I'm your host,

4
00:00:37,119 --> 00:00:43,200
Jeff Grubb and with me is Mike
Manati. In today's episode, Nintendo Hates

5
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:48,280
Gary, Stellar Blade reviews are out, and the best games of twenty twenty.

6
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,000
We'll get to all of that and
more. But first, Mike,

7
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,640
how are you doing? Yeah?
Not bad. I had a bunch of

8
00:00:55,679 --> 00:01:00,479
stuff to hang that I finally finished
hanging. I got this replica electric umbrella

9
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,200
signed behind me. Now that is
an old fast food rest on an epcot

10
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,400
that I like. That's not there
anymore. My one brother got me a

11
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,599
very nice replica of the sign.
So that's finally all right. You guys

12
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:14,120
talk about that that the Electric Yield
or whatever what's it called umbrella? And

13
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,040
yeah, yeah, it was just
it was just a burger place. It

14
00:01:17,079 --> 00:01:19,879
was nothing special, but I thought
it was neat and I like the name

15
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:23,519
electric Umbrella. It's a good it's
a good name, is uh electric umbrella?

16
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:26,560
What are they going for with electric
umbrella? Do you think? Do

17
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,519
you understand oh, just futurism.
Just you know, everything's electric in the

18
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,359
future, a neon lights and stuff
like that. That's it. It was

19
00:01:34,359 --> 00:01:37,599
in future world. Oh that's that's
cute and cool. I like it.

20
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,959
Yeah, I mean it was a
long day for me, and I'm feeling

21
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,120
it right now, but it's not
like a totally like bad way. I'm

22
00:01:44,159 --> 00:01:46,840
like, oh, yeah, that
was a full day, NonStop, you

23
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,599
know, and then get done with
work and then it was that was still

24
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,719
NonStop, but happy to be here, ready to talk about some more video

25
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:53,280
games and all that. It could
have been a long day for me because

26
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:59,319
I had to get up very early
for a appointment a dental thing. I

27
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:00,799
have. I have a front truth
that was chipped when I was a kid.

28
00:02:00,799 --> 00:02:02,239
I think I told you about this, and there's all. It's just

29
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:06,280
been like on and off issues.
And I had some new specialist look at

30
00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:07,840
it today and they want to do
another root canal on it next week.

31
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,240
But I didak it up very early
for that. When I got back,

32
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,319
I was just tired and didn't field
gers like I'm just gonna actually go lay

33
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,240
down for a bit. So I'm
fine. That's why That's why I missed

34
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,479
so much. Of your excitement today. I haven't seen too much of what

35
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:23,000
you guys did. I caught like
the end of a voicemail dump truck,

36
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,919
but yeah, I was like,
wow, you guys were playing with DIB.

37
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,680
You did a grab bag you know
sorts of stuff today. Yeah,

38
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:30,400
yeah, and like we would cut
the grab bag a little bit short,

39
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,439
but we still kind of went for
a bit and got into quite a bit

40
00:02:34,479 --> 00:02:37,879
of another Crabs treasure. You know, the crab gets a gun. Well

41
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:39,759
you can have you can get a
gun, but from the accessibility options,

42
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,680
right. But I remember seeing that
back at Summer Game Fest last year.

43
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,960
I think when you're showing it,
they're all very excited to show people the

44
00:02:46,039 --> 00:02:49,800
gun. Yeah it was. It's
a good idea. It's maybe one of

45
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,400
the best accessibility settings and probably will
win an award from Giant Bomb. We'll

46
00:02:53,439 --> 00:02:57,199
probably make a category just for that
so we can give it an award.

47
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,000
Well, we're we have a big
crab era right now. Huh you might

48
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:06,439
have the crabs er, I don't
know. Yeah, wait, what's the

49
00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:09,960
other crab stuff? Crab people?
Jeff, oh ship, that's super dancing.

50
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:20,240
That was yesterday. Man, that's
old news. That's all news.

51
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,599
I don't know what you're talking about. Man. People are asking for the

52
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,360
laser shirt, and I think we
need to make it happen. Yeah,

53
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:30,080
I'm like, I'm pretty sure I
have the power to make that happen.

54
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,599
I just haven't gone into the UI
of the shopify or whatever and really done

55
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,599
much with that. But I'm feeling
moved. I might just do it.

56
00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:40,199
I might put the shirt up for
like a week or something like that.

57
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,520
It'll be a special limited then or
something. I think it should be the

58
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,800
new Marquee shirt personally, but you
know, I feel like it's of a

59
00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:55,039
time. But we'll see. Maybe
you forgot about it already. Well everyone's

60
00:03:55,080 --> 00:04:00,319
just forgetfuls me. But I believe, all right, we should get into

61
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:01,759
this. I want to thank you

00:04:30,319 --> 00:04:32,600
Thank you to the mods and support

72
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,199
slash game mess That gets you access
to our Discord server, the monthly Q

73
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:41,920
and a participation in our monthly game
club discussions, one month early access to

74
00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:46,800
new episodes of game Mes, Jeopardy
and Columbros and one month We're just about

75
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,199
to read that again, and of
course all of our shows ad free.

76
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:53,319
A little bit of housekeeping. You
might have noticed it was changed up there

77
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,560
at the top. Going forward,
the discord server is now going to be

78
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,759
supporter only. This is just something
we need to do to like kind of

79
00:04:58,759 --> 00:05:00,399
make the keep things a little bit
more saying. As you may have noticed,

80
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,120
there's bots, trolls, et cetera. People have been showing up,

81
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,199
a lot of people have been showing
up lately. We decided the best way

82
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,279
to keep the community safe is to
close things a little bit. This is

83
00:05:11,319 --> 00:05:15,199
a big part of that is just
we look at the Discord, most of

84
00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:19,040
the conversation is still happening between the
people who are already Patreon members. So

85
00:05:19,079 --> 00:05:23,000
this doesn't feel like it's going to
be too drastic of a change. But

86
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,319
if it feels that way, it
is still like it's it's for us,

87
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,480
and it's to keep us and to
keep things simpler for us. That said,

88
00:05:30,759 --> 00:05:33,279
if you are listening and you are
a Discord member, but you have

89
00:05:33,399 --> 00:05:38,000
not supported to you so you can't
get in in other ways, we have

90
00:05:38,079 --> 00:05:41,160
a bunch of ways to make sure
you become a supporter, the Patreon of

91
00:05:41,199 --> 00:05:44,399
course, YouTube membership, Twitch memberships, so if you use you're like Amazon

92
00:05:44,439 --> 00:05:46,360
Prime membership. When Twitch is or
when a mic is streaming on Twitch,

93
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,600
that gets you in as well.
There's a bunch of ways to get in.

94
00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:53,600
But otherwise we're probably going to just
try to keep things a little bit

95
00:05:53,639 --> 00:05:57,079
more enclosed going forward. So thank
you to everyone who has joined so far.

96
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,519
Absolutely, all right, I got
a bunch of topics I want to

97
00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:03,079
talk about from this past week.
You ready to get into it? Yeah,

98
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:06,800
Jeff, Movie like a Wagon Wheel
rock me? All right, let's

99
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:12,480
go here, Stellar Blade reviews.
We're in it landed at I think an

100
00:06:12,519 --> 00:06:15,480
eighty four on on Open Critic and
eighty two on Metacritic. I think is

101
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,399
where it lasts when I last when
I looked those, Yeah, eighty two

102
00:06:18,439 --> 00:06:20,759
on Metacritic. So I think it's
funny. I think I forget if we

103
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,360
said this when we're actually online,
but I no offline, we were sick.

104
00:06:25,399 --> 00:06:30,319
It's probably gonna land around where Lies
of P did, which is like

105
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,920
an eighty or eighty two. We
had that conversation after the show last week

106
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,920
or or earlier this week, I
think after Ninten Dogs, and we were

107
00:06:35,959 --> 00:06:41,920
all like, yeah, that sounds
about right fair. I think Shawn who

108
00:06:41,959 --> 00:06:46,879
literally said he expects an eighty two, and someone who's doing review coverage for

109
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,079
I'm like, this feels like an
eighty two is where ask called it.

110
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,439
Thank you, Yes you nailed it. And then once you started saying now,

111
00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:56,240
I'm like, what e Lies of
P doing? You are like that's

112
00:06:56,319 --> 00:06:58,240
right where lots of people was.
I'm like, okay, then that's what

113
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,079
I think as well, So yeah
you know that, Sean, uh,

114
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,879
And then Mike, I do think
you also nailed it in our guessing game.

115
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:10,879
I think, uh, when I'm
based on the number, but wait,

116
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,040
isn't left doing open critic now,
No, oh that's right, Well

117
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:17,120
you still, you still win?
You still? I think I was.

118
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,800
I'm an eighty what special points though, but I think I won the other

119
00:07:21,839 --> 00:07:26,040
game, and I already forget what
the game that was so okay, so

120
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,240
hey, right where we were kind
of expecting based on playing the game a

121
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,720
little bit seeing the game, and
it seems like most people say the same

122
00:07:31,759 --> 00:07:34,680
thing, and the reviews for the
most part, very fun to play,

123
00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:39,560
that kind of nailed the action.
Everything else is a little lackluster, And

124
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,920
I'm like, well, that sounds
fine to me. I'm ready to play

125
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,720
a fun action game. And I
have been playing it a little bit.

126
00:07:43,759 --> 00:07:46,360
I've not had a chance to play
the last couple of nights, but I

127
00:07:46,399 --> 00:07:49,199
was. I enjoyed what I played
so far. I think I think it

128
00:07:49,279 --> 00:07:51,120
is a good action game. I
think it's going to be right there with

129
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,560
other character action games. I don't
think it's going to be replacing you know,

130
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,079
Bayonetta two for me, or Secro
or anything like that. I was

131
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,199
never expecting it. I think I
was expecting it to land right here,

132
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,480
and the fact that it was able
to meet those expectations is a very very

133
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,480
good sign to me. How do
you feel about it? Yeah, it

134
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,399
looks like they made a good game. I probably do want to try it

135
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:13,560
out at some point. It's been
a little bit about second since I played

136
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,720
a newer character action game, so
why the heck not? Yeah, it's

137
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:24,519
the kind of thing where this is
a game where they can like build on

138
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,040
what they've done in this first game. That's like a really strong introduction and

139
00:08:28,079 --> 00:08:31,440
if they want to make a Stellar
Blade too, which everyone says seems the

140
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,480
game is set up to introduce a
sequel in a pretty heavy way I would

141
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,480
imagine they would do, so,
I bet it's gonna sell way better than

142
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,399
they expected. So yeah, a
second game following this up, building on

143
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,039
everything in a decent way, it's
gonna be good. Are you gonna Are

144
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,440
you someone who's gonna be like a
little bummed out that it's like trying to

145
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,960
be near Automata and doesn't have the
decent like storytelling. Apparently has very good

146
00:08:52,039 --> 00:08:54,679
music, so it's got that side
of things. Are you gonna be upset

147
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,399
that it's just like a good action
game. I don't know. I mean

148
00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,639
I never expected it to do that
stuff as well as or a taumas though

149
00:09:00,799 --> 00:09:05,399
that's kind of the problem with aping
us stuff as much it's and that's one

150
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,279
thing, Hey, Eliza p wants
to be bloodborn. I know there's some

151
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,159
like from software siccos who really love
like that kind of lore and whatnot,

152
00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:15,879
But that story is all very kind
of background in there, right, whereas

153
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:20,120
in a near automata it's very foreground
all that stuff. So you would all

154
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,159
have a pretty hard time matching that
with sort of an early effort like this,

155
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:28,039
right, So I just don't have
that expectation of going into it.

156
00:09:28,759 --> 00:09:31,120
Yeah, I think for me,
like this is a game that if it

157
00:09:31,159 --> 00:09:35,519
was on steam Deck, if I
could be playing on on there, I

158
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,720
would percent be playing it. I'm
probably gonna I'll probably stream it to the

159
00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:39,720
Steam Deck try to see if I
can play a little bit more of it.

160
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,279
But when I have a little bit
of time to sit down on the

161
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,799
chair and the TV over here and
play some games, it is what I'll

162
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,200
I'll turn on. I just don't
have a ton of time for that right

163
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,840
now, and it's not one of
the games that I'm going to one hundred

164
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:56,320
percent like make time for. But
when I have that time, I'll take

165
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,960
it for that, right, that's
kind of my takeaway this game. Maybe

166
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,320
I probably will want to pla.
It doesn't seem urgent or anything that kind

167
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,360
of like how I felt with Liza
P. And I did say then that

168
00:10:05,399 --> 00:10:07,279
one was Lise of P was game
pass, so it was very easy to

169
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:13,200
check that out right away. Anyways, I forget this is like PlayStation Plus

170
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,720
or something or an another. Right, I know Sony's involved, I don't

171
00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:20,639
know exactly how easily it is the
access it. Yeah, so Sony is

172
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:26,360
publishing the game, I believe.
I think that's right, but they it's

173
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:33,200
not like in PlayStation PlayStation Plus or
anything like that. But yeah, I

174
00:10:33,279 --> 00:10:35,519
just like, I think this game
is probably gonn end up on PC in

175
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,919
about a year or so, maybe
a little bit longer, and those things

176
00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:43,759
range. A lot of PlayStation first
party games are three years. But it

177
00:10:43,759 --> 00:10:46,279
feels like these games that are like, yeah, their first party, but

178
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:50,440
it's a partner studio, sometimes they
come a little bit quicker. So we'll

179
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,759
see. That said, I still
will be playing it when I get some

180
00:10:52,799 --> 00:10:58,240
time. The Thousand Year Doors previews
went live earlier this morning. Mike,

181
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:03,919
you and I were both in there. You got a little bit some people

182
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,200
think got to play, but we
kind of had a some people they get

183
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:07,919
to play. I had a hands
off preview. You did too, so

184
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,039
yeah, I think some people had
some kind of hands on thing at least

185
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:16,240
if that's in New York or LA
or something like that. Yeah, yeah,

186
00:11:16,279 --> 00:11:18,639
but yes that it was like,
Okay, we're I'm gonna sit down

187
00:11:18,639 --> 00:11:22,360
with this preview, gonna see what
they're gonna say. And they basically talked

188
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,840
about what Mario or Paper Mario the
Thousand Year Door was as a video game,

189
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,919
and I'm like, oh, yeah, I played this before, guys,

190
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,639
I know all this, So it
was like a little bit. I

191
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,240
was a little bit like lost there
first, like okay, and when are

192
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,919
we going to get like what's new? And then they did talk about a

193
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,879
few things that were new. There's
a badge in there, they could play

194
00:11:37,919 --> 00:11:43,360
the GameCube music. That new music. There's new music, right. Uh.

195
00:11:43,399 --> 00:11:46,679
There's a character called the battle Master
I think in Toadsport who can teach

196
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,240
you more about how to like get
the most out of the combat system and

197
00:11:50,279 --> 00:11:52,960
all the other stuff. Yeah,
just some other neat things. They're like

198
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,039
you could instantly swap party members,
which I don't think you could in the

199
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,720
original game, so that's really nice. And like the newer Piper Mario games,

200
00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:01,600
you can and kind of swing your
hammer and more directions like up and

201
00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:05,559
down, not just left and right, so that makes certain things easier.

202
00:12:05,879 --> 00:12:09,480
It was really impressive, you know. I think the big thing is what

203
00:12:09,799 --> 00:12:13,480
excites me is that this is more
of a graphical update than I was expecting

204
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,559
it is. Looking. Yes,
it looks really very snappy, at least

205
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,720
ins of at least in terms of, like, you know, the actual

206
00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:24,480
graphics and the fidelity. Yeah.
It in the zoom call where they were

207
00:12:24,519 --> 00:12:30,399
previewing it. Excuse me, uh, they made it. It looked very

208
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:33,960
smooth, to the point where I'm
like, maybe this is sixty and it's

209
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:37,279
you asked about that while I was
gone getting my kid from the bus.

210
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,080
Now, I know you can't like
quote them exactly or anything like that,

211
00:12:39,159 --> 00:12:41,679
but like just kind of what was
the vibe they gave you so and I

212
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,240
was a little bit wasty. I
was like when I was looking, I

213
00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:46,600
was like, I was like,
this looks pretty good. I don't think

214
00:12:46,639 --> 00:12:52,039
it's sixty. It looks funnish,
but I couldn't tell. I thought it

215
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,080
might have been because the zoom Call
is probably eating up something here and it

216
00:12:54,159 --> 00:12:56,120
was smoothed it out to me,
so I'm like, I don't know,

217
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,279
but you know, and I asked
him, look, this is just a

218
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,759
run by, you know, the
marketing people. It's not like we're talking

219
00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:07,080
to developers. But I just said, hey, is this thirty or sixty?

220
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,399
And he I kind of got along
when answered like, well, you

221
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,559
know, there are some things that
are different, so the game might feel

222
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,200
a little different some people, which
to me was like, okay, so

223
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,240
it's thirty, even though they didn't
really say that. Well, and you

224
00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:20,799
saw the trailer today, right right, do you want it? That's at

225
00:13:20,799 --> 00:13:24,960
thirty. So that was uploaded without
a sixty frames per second option. It's

226
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,960
you know, you see the ten
ADP sixty, It was just ten ADP

227
00:13:28,159 --> 00:13:31,399
on YouTube, which to me is
basically a confirmation that it's, if not

228
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:35,639
always running at thirty, most of
the time running at thirty frames per second.

229
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,519
That said, the way it looks
in that trailer, the way it

230
00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:41,639
looked in the zoom Call, I'm
like, it looks pretty smooth in terms

231
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:46,360
of like how it appears to me. I think, I'm okay, I

232
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,679
do just have some concerns about the
timing of hits in battle, but that's

233
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,679
something you can also get used to, so I don't know. I just

234
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,679
want to play for myself and judge
at that point. At this point,

235
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,039
I'm like, I have my concerns, but they probably won't be that big

236
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,720
of a deal. Yeah, that's
I think that's where I am. You

237
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,720
know, Like I was pretty upset
about this early on, but yeah,

238
00:14:03,759 --> 00:14:05,799
looking at that preview, looking at
the video, I'm like, Okay,

239
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:11,200
like this looks fine. Honestly.
The only concern now is the timing stuff,

240
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,600
and they can do things like have
like inputs be read at sixty fps

241
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,720
even if the game's not running at
that. I don't know if they're going

242
00:14:18,799 --> 00:14:20,200
to do that, and I don't
know, maybe, like when I played,

243
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,919
it actually won't even be an issue
anyways, but it is still a

244
00:14:24,039 --> 00:14:31,279
concern in what is otherwise looking like
a very good project. Otherwise, I

245
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,399
am very excited about this pretty much
every angle. Yep, I feel like

246
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,039
they nailed what they were going for. Yeah, and chat they're like,

247
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,360
oh yeah, the Orgomi King was
thirty frames per second and that felt pretty

248
00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:43,679
good. Yeah. I didn't have
any trouble with the timing in that game.

249
00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:46,399
I didn't think that game had a
great combat system that I never it

250
00:14:46,399 --> 00:14:48,919
won't be an issue. I bet
it won't be an issue in the end,

251
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,320
and I won't be surprised if they
like basically just used what they did

252
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,320
for Origami King here. So that's
why we're kind we kind of ended up

253
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,679
with this. And again, when
I was really upset, like I was

254
00:14:56,679 --> 00:15:00,320
like, that's a bullshit that we're
having a GameCube game that was at sixty

255
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,879
and now it's at thirty switch And
I still stand by that a bit.

256
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,879
But this, again, this is
more of a remake than I was expecting.

257
00:15:09,039 --> 00:15:13,320
It does look noticeably better. So
no, I just want to be

258
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,240
excited about this game. I love
the thousand nine Door. I'm not gonna

259
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:22,000
let this like be some kind of
weird ring cloud hanging over me and the

260
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,559
whole thing now right, I mean, what's the worst that can happen?

261
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,879
Right now? We get excited,
we get disappointed, it's like, okay,

262
00:15:26,919 --> 00:15:28,559
oh well, then we can always
go back to the original and play

263
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,159
that game. No one's taking that
away. So it's like, yeah,

264
00:15:31,399 --> 00:15:33,600
I'm gonna get my hopes up that
this is going to be a really nice,

265
00:15:33,919 --> 00:15:35,960
not you know, not swan song
for the for the Switch, but

266
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,960
something close to something very close to
the end, the last game that we

267
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,120
know. It could be one of
the last big game, might be the

268
00:15:41,159 --> 00:15:43,960
biggest game on the Switch this year, you know, good point, it

269
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,159
could be, And like, I
want to have good memories of the Switch

270
00:15:46,559 --> 00:15:48,440
at the end here, and I
don't want to be kind of shitty about

271
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,919
it. So if it still bothers
people, I don't blame them. If

272
00:15:50,919 --> 00:15:54,840
they're just like, if this is
indicative of like, you know, what's

273
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,519
annoying about these remakes, so especially
things that come from GameCube that did run

274
00:15:58,559 --> 00:16:02,519
at sixty frames per second, I'm
with you as well, but in this

275
00:16:02,919 --> 00:16:04,320
particular case, I'm going to be
like, Okay, moving that aside.

276
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,480
I'm excited about this game. It's
clearly not as bad as Tails a Symphonia,

277
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:11,360
which was, you know, a
sixty FPS game on GameCube. Then

278
00:16:11,399 --> 00:16:15,200
they did a bad remaster of it, which barely did much to make the

279
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,519
game look any better. They didn't
bad remaster of the PS three game right

280
00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:22,159
right again, Well, yeah,
the PS three which was then The Weavers,

281
00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:25,200
and right exactly, it's like that
being at thirty fist per second was

282
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,360
completely unacceptable, Whereas here, I
guess maybe I can see and again when

283
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,120
you're looking the trailer, you know, you can look at the contra.

284
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:33,799
Nobody in like the comments, at
least that I saw them as are like,

285
00:16:33,799 --> 00:16:37,159
whoa, this looks like it's real
sluggish. No one's really saying that.

286
00:16:37,399 --> 00:16:41,480
It doesn't look like that. I
think a part of that is they

287
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,159
built the game around this, as
I think this was the scope from the

288
00:16:45,159 --> 00:16:48,240
beginning, so the animations are all
built to look good at this frame rate,

289
00:16:48,559 --> 00:16:52,360
Whereas, like you know, obviously
in a shooter game you're strafing side

290
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,480
to sign, the whole world can
can become a slide show or feel like

291
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,519
a slide show. To me,
at least, that's that was not happening

292
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:03,320
in this trailer. Maybe we'll see, we'll get the final game. But

293
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,480
there are times where it does like
it's like like three y fastest borderline repulsive

294
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,559
to me, Like I could not
stand playing off seven rebirths on the thirty

295
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,039
fps mode and other people prefer that, right, So it's just like a

296
00:17:14,079 --> 00:17:17,359
difference of you know, perspective.
You know, we all have different eyes

297
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,880
and brains and all that stuff.
Usually I am very sensitive to it.

298
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,440
It didn't seem bad here. We'll
see. I'll play the game, then

299
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,799
I'll see how I feel about it. But I'm excited for a thousand year

300
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:33,880
door sticky with Nintendo. Apparently,
Nintendo has started issuing takedown notices for many

301
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:38,400
of the mods and assets that are
on the Steam Workshop that use Nintendo IP

302
00:17:38,839 --> 00:17:45,000
for the fun sandbox game Gary's Mod. This is something that people have been

303
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,799
They've been uploading content based on Nintendo
the Steam Workshop for a very long time.

304
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,880
Some of these assets are around twenty
years old and Gary, the people

305
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:59,039
responsible for Gary's Mod. Gary himself
took the Twitter said this is confirmed Nintendo

306
00:17:59,279 --> 00:18:04,400
is sending these takedown notices. Let's
start with with why do you think this

307
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,279
is happening? Do you think Nintendo
is I speculate on Game of Mornings this

308
00:18:08,319 --> 00:18:14,160
morning, Mike that it was lawyers
at Nintendo of America just finding their next

309
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,920
project to work on, being like, okay, we like did the emulator

310
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,319
thing. We were still I still
get paid every day. I got to

311
00:18:18,319 --> 00:18:22,160
be finding something to keep myself busy. Let's just get to that. I'm

312
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,319
like, I still think it's probably
that I guess I wouldn't be shocked if

313
00:18:26,319 --> 00:18:30,240
it's like, well, Nintendo has
this idea of user generating a user generated

314
00:18:30,279 --> 00:18:33,359
content future, and so we got
to like, you know, we got

315
00:18:33,319 --> 00:18:37,359
to salt the earth. Yeah,
it's probably not that. It's probably a

316
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,920
bored lawyer, right. I don't
think there's any way this is hitting at

317
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,480
the future of Nintendo. And anyways, probably you're right, they have a

318
00:18:41,519 --> 00:18:45,599
bunch of lawyers, uh that work
there. There's not a whole lot for

319
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,240
them to do right now because I
think, you know what, there's not

320
00:18:48,279 --> 00:18:51,119
a lot of legal lees to do
about new projects or even the switch to

321
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,839
at this point, right, So
yeah, they're just they're just looking for

322
00:18:55,039 --> 00:18:59,759
something to do that seems likely to
me. And this is pretty stupid.

323
00:19:00,319 --> 00:19:03,839
Mod is so completely harmless, just
freaking leave it alone. But no,

324
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,160
they're gonna go in there and stir
shit up. Yep. I think this.

325
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,519
I think this stinks. It is
I think the people who are who

326
00:19:11,599 --> 00:19:15,480
say like free advertising are right.
I think when Nintendo stuff pops up in

327
00:19:15,519 --> 00:19:21,640
something like a Gary's mod, it
does almost zero measurable harm to Nintendo and

328
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,319
probably only helps them. When we
were saying that about like Samu's being in

329
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,240
Fortnite, You're like, okay,
so people who play on PlayStation five are

330
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,920
gonna see samus Like, how is
that a bad thing, except that it

331
00:19:32,039 --> 00:19:37,000
like weirds out some seventy year old
Zeo or whatever at Nintendo. I don't

332
00:19:37,039 --> 00:19:40,759
know. Yeah, I think the
other side of this sad for me is

333
00:19:40,759 --> 00:19:44,200
always I'm surprised it worked this way
in the first place. I am like,

334
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:45,839
when I think of mods, I'm
like, yeah, mod, you

335
00:19:45,839 --> 00:19:48,079
can do with anything with mods.
I'm a big fan of mods. I

336
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,920
like them. But my expectation is
when you want a mod, you got

337
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,720
to go find it. You got
to go look on their you want to

338
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,720
find the real shit. I mean, yeah, but that's the dot that

339
00:20:00,799 --> 00:20:03,440
like Launcher you can use to like
launch mods on the Xbox version of like

340
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,920
Skyrim and Fallout and all that stuff. That's really cool, But they like

341
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,240
have that police hard. There is
no copyright infringement on there. They won't

342
00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:17,039
let the ones that like use real
songs or have like Star Wars conversion mods

343
00:20:17,319 --> 00:20:18,640
like that stuff isn't on there because
they don't own that stuff and they just

344
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,640
block it out right. I would
assume that I assumed a little bit that

345
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,359
like Steam was doing that to a
certain extent. That's why I never would

346
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,079
really use the Steam Workshop for the
most part. And we'll use it a

347
00:20:29,079 --> 00:20:30,880
little bit with Skyrim and they're like, Okay, well there's one mod not

348
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,400
on here. I'm going to go
over to the Vortex and use that thing

349
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:41,039
or just install it myself. All
these mods apparently still exist online in other

350
00:20:41,079 --> 00:20:44,039
places, so you're still gonna be
able to install these things. They just

351
00:20:44,039 --> 00:20:47,160
won't be on the Steam Workshop.
I asked around. That's my understanding.

352
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,880
If that's not right, then that
really stinks. If these things are just

353
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,599
being scrapped from the scraped from the
internet for good, I really hate this.

354
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,599
But if this is just Nintendo going
like saying, hey, Steam,

355
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,279
you have to stop distributing these things, like of course they are. We

356
00:21:00,319 --> 00:21:03,039
all understood that we shouldn't be doing
that in the first place. You got

357
00:21:03,079 --> 00:21:06,000
to like be brave, go find
it on the internet yourself and install it,

358
00:21:06,079 --> 00:21:07,519
you know, with with like into
the folder like a big boy.

359
00:21:07,559 --> 00:21:11,119
I'm like, this doesn't really affect
me all that much when I really think

360
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,720
about it. But that's I don't
know, does that sound right to you?

361
00:21:14,799 --> 00:21:17,079
Sure? You know, I know
I'm not the biggest mod guy in

362
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,440
the world anyways, So I had
no idea how it works for a Gary's

363
00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:22,880
mod, to be honest. I
think I loaded up Gary's mod one time

364
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,000
and I shot a gun and a
Gordon Freeman showed up, and I was

365
00:21:26,039 --> 00:21:29,920
like, that's interesting. Yeah,
this happens. This happens all the time

366
00:21:30,039 --> 00:21:33,799
with the tabletop simulator, where like
people miss tabletops games all the time,

367
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:38,960
and then like a company that own
certain tabletop is like, hey, Steam,

368
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,680
you can't do that, so they
take that one down, but they

369
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:47,880
lift like the other like thousands up. So he happens a lot of time.

370
00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:51,680
I do know if Larkana there's like
that one like digital card game thing,

371
00:21:51,759 --> 00:21:53,279
but it's not like you can like
open it up and then from with

372
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,440
their load the lar Khana packs.
You have to like go and like find

373
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:02,160
the zip files yourself that have that
has all the Larkana art and effects on

374
00:22:02,319 --> 00:22:04,960
it to load into that. Yes, there's my frame of reference and it's

375
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,400
it's the exact same thing. It's
it's you know, downloading retroarchs. Yeah,

376
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:11,599
yeah, yeah, where are the
ROMs? Oh, we can't tell

377
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,559
you, Like it's it's that sort
of thing, you know, in every

378
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,000
YouTube video about that, being like, oh, it's impossible to find you

379
00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:22,359
know, Google doesn't exist. It's
like everyone winks and nods, and as

380
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,640
long as you do that, as
long as you know, shut the fuck

381
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,240
up Friday, like everything else is
chill and we can all keep getting away

382
00:22:27,279 --> 00:22:30,559
with this. Uh. But once
you start being like we're gonna use the

383
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:36,079
Steam commercial platform, it's like that
is crossing a line that I thought again,

384
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,079
I thought we all understood, so
like, why even do it in

385
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,039
the first place. And the reason
is because they got away with it for

386
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,240
so long, figured people could just
figure it it's fine at a certain point,

387
00:22:44,599 --> 00:22:48,200
and Steam only stops people it seems
like when they do get a DMCA

388
00:22:48,319 --> 00:22:49,599
claim, which is they're right,
they're allowed to operate that way. That's

389
00:22:49,599 --> 00:22:52,440
the way the DMCA rules are written. That's how YouTube works, right.

390
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,079
You got upload a movie and it'll
be on there until someone does something,

391
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,400
unless it's on content ID, which
is also actively an active thing. You

392
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,720
have to lay like here's my content, please idea it for me. So

393
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,759
yeah, I think this sucks.
I think this is indicative and Nintendo being

394
00:23:06,799 --> 00:23:08,960
a curmudgeon and being kind of a
stick in the mud about this stuff.

395
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:15,279
I also don't think it's that big
a deal. All right. Finally,

396
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,480
just this little thing here, I
talked about this, I think with m

397
00:23:18,599 --> 00:23:22,559
Ron yesterday maybe it maybe it was
with jan today. Capcom raised their earnings

398
00:23:22,599 --> 00:23:26,079
expectations today they were all Capcom yehes
today. Capcom was already one of the

399
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,880
fastest growing companies in Japan, and
now they're expecting to grow even faster.

400
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,720
This is I mean, everything's going
Capcom's way, right, Yeah, And

401
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,839
you know that is the benefit where
you get to a point where you release

402
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:45,400
so many quality games that suddenly just
you yourself become a brand. It's something

403
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,799
that Nintendo has been able to enjoy
for a long time. It happens to

404
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,119
very few other companies. It happened
from Software for example, and that's a

405
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,839
great position to be in. It's
probably gonna happen to say Alarian Studios now,

406
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,079
but it's happened to Capcom now.
Like Dragons Dogma too, right,

407
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,640
Dragon's Dogma on with such a kind
of low key thing that people liked.

408
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,359
It was kind of a hated gem. The fact that Dragon's Dogma two can

409
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:14,359
exceed expectations right and help them raise
their forecasts like, you know, everything's

410
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,440
going great over there. Like when
they have a misfire, it's something like

411
00:24:17,559 --> 00:24:19,759
Exo Primate, what is still like
whatever that was fun, which is so

412
00:24:19,839 --> 00:24:22,279
big deal. No one's mad about
that. Yeah it's a good game,

413
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:27,680
right, No one cares. So
yeah, yeah, it's a Capcom world

414
00:24:27,799 --> 00:24:30,319
right now. Yep. They kind
of the Midas touch a little bit.

415
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:36,440
It's and that's not like luck.
It is like they've crafted a certain way

416
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,119
of making games and obviously they have
their tech like they have their artistic side

417
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,359
of like, here's what we're here's
our vision for how we're going to make

418
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,119
games, and then they have their
technical side of here's the engine that we're

419
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,680
going to do it all in.
And both are working hand in hand and

420
00:24:47,759 --> 00:24:52,480
both are like at the top of
their game and everything's benefiting. It does

421
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,160
feel like the growth is going to
be a good continue to be the thing

422
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,200
that every other company is looking over
and being jealous of. And I think

423
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:00,759
every other companies can like, man, we could have had that, because

424
00:25:00,759 --> 00:25:04,759
I don't think Capcom's doing anything that's
like that strange or that different. Now.

425
00:25:04,839 --> 00:25:07,039
I think the big thing is is
the reach for the Moon Engine,

426
00:25:07,079 --> 00:25:11,559
the RI engine, sure, but
like Capcom had Fox Engine, if they

427
00:25:11,599 --> 00:25:14,880
would have stuck with that and kept
updating it, maybe I don't really fully

428
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,519
understand that. Maybe it had so
much technical debt they couldn't have done that.

429
00:25:17,799 --> 00:25:19,000
I don't fully know, but it's
like, you know, there was

430
00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:22,079
a world in which they were building
an engine and then they stopped and because

431
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:23,920
they were like, well, we're
not gonna invest in these games anymore.

432
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,759
Was that? So you said Capcom
had the Fux engine, that's gonna thank

433
00:25:29,759 --> 00:25:32,960
you. Yeah, I mean it's
pretty easy to see that world where they

434
00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:37,920
didn't piss off Kojima and they released
PT and they like had more fallow ups

435
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,039
to metal gear and other things using
that engine. And you know they were

436
00:25:41,079 --> 00:25:45,920
able to like massage Silent Hill to
be in a Capcom status way earlier,

437
00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:49,000
so that it's already there now.
And then Medical Cure Ke is doing things,

438
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:52,599
and maybe you could have actually done
something with Contra, right, because

439
00:25:52,599 --> 00:25:56,319
you know Capcom has these legacy franchises
that's doing stuff with. It has so

440
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,640
many more that kild I can always
go back to and bring back also,

441
00:26:02,319 --> 00:26:03,839
uh, you know, like like
a Mega Man all these other things.

442
00:26:04,559 --> 00:26:07,559
Yeah, they're just in a fantastic
spot I'm so I'm always just excited to

443
00:26:07,559 --> 00:26:10,559
see what's happening next. I was
even thinking today it's like, oh,

444
00:26:10,559 --> 00:26:12,680
I wonder when they go into announce
the next Resident Evil. I was listening

445
00:26:12,759 --> 00:26:15,079
to Bullet in the Blade on Spotify
at time. I was like, I

446
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,000
like that game. I hope we
got another Resident Evil soon. Those are

447
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,039
very good. And before remake came
out like early last year, right about

448
00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:26,720
this, yeah, this this time
last year just about actually I think maybe

449
00:26:26,759 --> 00:26:30,400
a little earlier. So yeah,
it's about a year old now. So

450
00:26:30,559 --> 00:26:34,720
and we know they have that that
action game coming out that I can't remember

451
00:26:34,759 --> 00:26:38,720
the name of, can it Sugami
Path of the Gods? Yes? Right,

452
00:26:40,319 --> 00:26:42,079
And they announced a new Monster Hunter, so we have a little bit

453
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:47,759
of an idea of what's coming next. Ish now New Devil May Cry probably

454
00:26:47,799 --> 00:26:51,119
bits away because that was the Dragon's
Dog with two team, although I imagine

455
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:52,960
that's what they will be working on
next, so they might be doing a

456
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:59,920
little Dragon's Dog the DC or something
or so. Yep, they're they're full.

457
00:27:00,279 --> 00:27:03,480
They're all in on on street Fighters
sports. Street Fighter Yep. Yeah,

458
00:27:03,519 --> 00:27:06,720
street Fighter is going to continue to
get content, and it's like our

459
00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:10,079
Stalker's going to continue being dead.
Well, That's that's what I wonder is

460
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:11,240
like, are they going to expand
now? Because I mean that's the thing

461
00:27:11,279 --> 00:27:14,920
about growth. Growth is great.
Where are you gonna get more growth now?

462
00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:17,519
Are they going to maybe try to
spin up some more studios or we

463
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,400
are they really going to try to
push to get a new versus game happening

464
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,119
or bring back to dog Stalkers,
do something with Mega Man, do more?

465
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,279
Uh? I guess I'm curious to
see what the next step is.

466
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,599
I think they probably do like get
a little big in their bridges and say,

467
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,559
you know what, let's do Mega
Man. Let's make Mega Man than

468
00:27:33,599 --> 00:27:37,000
our next big sort of project here, not like projects like our next video

469
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,480
game project are next like a renovation
project, like let's really make make it

470
00:27:41,519 --> 00:27:45,160
as big as possible. But then
they they probably are going to reach a

471
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,720
little bit of a wall, right
because like, like I think what you're

472
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,319
saying, like, do they have
to expand to make new studios, because

473
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,720
what they've done now is like you
know, you take the the the Devil

474
00:27:55,799 --> 00:27:59,200
May Cry studio, let them go
back to Dragon's Dogma and that like as

475
00:27:59,279 --> 00:28:02,599
a franchise to could be that much
bigger. It is they've done that now,

476
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,160
and okay that they've sort of reached
their their limit here or reached their

477
00:28:07,599 --> 00:28:10,480
kind of see it, Bethesa.
You can have a studio work on maybe

478
00:28:11,039 --> 00:28:15,640
two Giant Triple A franchises. Three
are asking a lot these days, right,

479
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,279
That's yeah, that's like not an
option, right, So it's like

480
00:28:18,559 --> 00:28:21,920
they're doing what they can. It
seems like all like seems like they've tapped

481
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,440
out like the potential for Resident Evil. They will keep making Resident Evils,

482
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,160
but it's like, yeah, is
there like a third fourth uh you know,

483
00:28:29,279 --> 00:28:32,920
tier echelon of of Receievil. It
can be happening simultaneously. Probably not.

484
00:28:33,039 --> 00:28:36,119
They have the occasional multiplayer side game
that they put out, and that

485
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:37,680
seems to be like them reaching as
far as they can reach. Yeah,

486
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,440
right at you wall soon, I
think. Yeah, like Rezie was in

487
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,960
a very good spot, but you
can't exactly saturate it more. You have

488
00:28:45,079 --> 00:28:48,000
this great thing going on with remakes, new game, remake, new game.

489
00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:51,559
You can continue to do that for
a bit. It's like the old

490
00:28:51,599 --> 00:28:55,680
days where we can make another light
gun game or something just like fill things

491
00:28:55,759 --> 00:29:00,319
out. Gosh, I don't want
to get myself worked up a gosh it.

492
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,759
It just makes up with sense to
me. You have a little extra

493
00:29:02,839 --> 00:29:06,640
capital, now you do you are
look for ways to grow, and people

494
00:29:06,759 --> 00:29:11,359
do still like Mega Man like,
let's take an action ready crisis. Sorry,

495
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,839
hey, well that be neat too, although I'm I'm still little confused

496
00:29:17,839 --> 00:29:22,519
where all these Dino Crisis fans game
from bring it up every time? But

497
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,200
sure, hey, I would not
complain about more Dino Crisis. That be

498
00:29:26,279 --> 00:29:29,720
neat, but give me I think, go ahead. It would have be

499
00:29:29,799 --> 00:29:32,960
on top five of my like Capcom
franceises, I went back, I would

500
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,480
give me Demon's Cress and power Stone
and similar things first, but sure,

501
00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:40,680
sure do Dino Crisis whatever. Uh. I think the good news for Capcom

502
00:29:40,759 --> 00:29:45,559
as it stands right now is the
the fundamental strategy of continuing to invest in

503
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,720
these franchises that have worked in the
past and continue to continue to find new

504
00:29:49,759 --> 00:29:53,079
fans are going to keep finding new
fans. Whereas Evil's Big, it keeps

505
00:29:53,119 --> 00:29:56,839
getting bigger. Monster Monster Hunter is
big, it keeps getting bigger, and

506
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:02,839
I think that is at a certain
point a sort of a self feeding loop

507
00:30:03,039 --> 00:30:06,920
of people get excited because their friends
are excited, so they come to check

508
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,440
in on the next game, and
you make the next game that much bigger,

509
00:30:08,519 --> 00:30:11,200
that much more accessible. That's clearly
what they're doing with Monster Hunter over

510
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,599
and over again. Now, I
think that there's still like growth within what

511
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,599
they're doing, still yet to be
untapped. It's just like they are going

512
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,400
to begin looking for new opportunities and
that's going to be tough to pull off.

513
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:23,240
I think that's all. Yeah.
I see the people chest say,

514
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,440
oh, kids don't like Mega Man. Well, they haven't made a Mega

515
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,640
Man game since twenty eighteen, so
like most of the kids weren't. Let

516
00:30:30,039 --> 00:30:33,960
Mega Man is a cartoon character.
If you make a good Mega Man game,

517
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:37,240
it is going to appeal to kids. Uh, you know that can't

518
00:30:37,279 --> 00:30:40,359
happen. I mean that's why I
liked Magas Watch because I was a very

519
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,039
young kid. He just he's an
appealing looking, fun, cute character.

520
00:30:44,799 --> 00:30:48,400
They'll take care of itself and the
kids are often wrong. Also, Yeah,

521
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,839
if they don't like Mega Man,
fuck them, I know better than

522
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,960
them. That does for the big
stuff this week. Oh go ahead,

523
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,279
what was that? Sorry? I
imagine if they do the game in like

524
00:30:57,359 --> 00:31:02,240
a cartoon, you will live with
a go like Mega Man car. Imagine

525
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:06,000
they had a Megma game that kind
of looked like Hiphi Rush Jesus Christ Jese.

526
00:31:06,119 --> 00:31:08,000
Okay, yeah, yeah, gotta
be good. A big swing.

527
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,920
I think they should take a big
swing with Mega Man next. Look,

528
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,720
if you want to do like the
safe swing and make a new Mega Man

529
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:18,279
X or something also, of course, sure do that too. There's probably

530
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,559
ten studios that have made good Mega
Man likes that you can go and throw

531
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:23,720
some money to and just have that
happen while you're doing the big Mega Man

532
00:31:23,799 --> 00:31:29,920
thing. I do appreciate Dominic Malta
remind us about pragmata. Pragmata pragmata in

533
00:31:30,039 --> 00:31:33,480
chat. Capcom always needs to have
one of those as well. There was

534
00:31:33,519 --> 00:31:36,519
always a deep down, there's always
a pragmata. There's always one of these

535
00:31:36,519 --> 00:31:41,240
games. It's been forever, the
justings in the background. How fucking dare

536
00:31:41,359 --> 00:31:45,240
you? First you say Darkstalkers are
going continue to be dead? Now you're

537
00:31:45,279 --> 00:31:48,359
shitting on my dreams? A pragmata? Okay? Are you? Are you

538
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:53,039
being for shoot with this? Yes? Why what is it? I completely

539
00:31:53,079 --> 00:31:56,720
forget about it. Other than their
Capcom game that looks like I could have

540
00:31:56,759 --> 00:32:00,680
been a Kojima game. I know
that, but what else is it?

541
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,160
Why are you excited about it?
Because sci fi as hell? Okay,

542
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,680
if that's it, if that,
if that's your heart, I'm with you.

543
00:32:06,759 --> 00:32:09,000
I get that fair enough. This
is like this, It smells like

544
00:32:09,079 --> 00:32:15,200
somebody who misses a lot of what's
the vanquish? Is this like we need?

545
00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:19,920
It's like we need that that type
of game again? Do speaking of

546
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,319
the speaking of the three sixty era
and cap when we see that Dark Void

547
00:32:22,359 --> 00:32:25,960
and the like the eight bit,
I went to get them todayan do you

548
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,640
listen? I gotta buy five bucks. Yeah, I'm gonna might do that

549
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,720
right now before you just do it
because I was afraid I was gonna forget

550
00:32:34,759 --> 00:32:37,640
so actually I think I need to
buy him case I ever lose my Dark

551
00:32:37,119 --> 00:32:42,160
Dark Void zero. Yeah, I'll
get both of this right now. Get

552
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:46,279
one, buy Dark Void. Maybe
we'll confuse them, but really what's more

553
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,359
dark? We'll get Dark Void before
Mega Man, I'll be like, what

554
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,119
the fuck? What do you think
is happening? There? Is there like

555
00:32:52,519 --> 00:32:58,799
some music because I know they had
I'm back that music was like bought for

556
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,319
that game that was like work for
hire. That has to be. I

557
00:33:00,599 --> 00:33:04,160
mean, I don't know. I
yeah, no, no idea. Maybe

558
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,079
they just because it does have mixed
reviews on Siano as a matter of like

559
00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:09,160
peoplen't really like this game. It
like makes us look bad. I don't

560
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,599
know, I can't imagine what it
is. Yeah, I mean, maybe

561
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,200
it's like starting to break down and
it's hard to support it. You know

562
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:20,759
what. The capcom definitely is probably
gonna announce soon is Ace Attorney seven?

563
00:33:20,839 --> 00:33:23,119
The next eights Attorney's probably geting announced
soon, and I will be happy.

564
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:27,519
I'm glad we live in a world
where Ace Attorney and Professor Layton are still

565
00:33:27,559 --> 00:33:30,200
going that. Professor Layton looks good
like Ace Attorney never even really went away,

566
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,599
like Lighton's coming back with this quaintness
ye back yeah, yeah, yeah,

567
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,240
there's a new Layton young. Wow, I forget what's called on one

568
00:33:37,279 --> 00:33:38,640
future? Was that a different one? Uh? Yeah, there's a new

569
00:33:38,759 --> 00:33:43,160
uh Layton. It looks great and
we are definitely going to get a new

570
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,000
Ace Attorney soon and that will be
awesome. I bet. Well, those

571
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,359
are the big topics I wanted to
talk about. We have to get in

572
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,720
some super chats. Let's see what
those kids want to talk about let's do

573
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:59,519
that actually right after this break,
do that right after this and we're back

574
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:00,720
and we've got some super chats.
Mike, you want to hit those for

575
00:34:00,839 --> 00:34:06,480
me? Yes? Yes. Our
Lincoln member Daily Beating says, thanks as

576
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,679
always for the shows. Thank you
Daily Beating, Thank you Daily Beating.

577
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,599
That's how we keep them morale around
here. That's right, the ten Derek

578
00:34:12,599 --> 00:34:15,000
says, the Watchdog series is one
of my favorite games series. So this

579
00:34:15,079 --> 00:34:19,360
week's news was rough any other unique, open world GTA like games you'd recommend,

580
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,920
So yeah, it seems like Watchdogs
is not coming back. It also

581
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,760
seemed like, you know, you
run your polls on game this morning.

582
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,320
They're not the most scientific thing in
the world now, of course, but

583
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,360
the fact that only twenty five percents
like seems we're like, yeah, I

584
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:37,199
want a new Watchdogs. That's pretty
low. It's pretty low, I think.

585
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,079
I think, I do think that's
the explanation, even though you're absolutely

586
00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:45,159
right not scientific. Have you if
you haven't played Sleeping Dogs, play Sleeping

587
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:46,800
Dogs. I played quite a bit
of that and I thought that was pretty

588
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:51,199
good. I think though, you
know, so many games are kind of

589
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,320
becoming open world and they're not trying
to be GTA. Well no, what

590
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:58,719
kNs they THO could afford to make
a GTA clone anyway, if that new

591
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,599
Mafia happens, that'll be as close
as you're probably gonna get. But that's

592
00:35:00,639 --> 00:35:05,039
probably a good ways a way,
right, So I think just didn't fully

593
00:35:05,119 --> 00:35:07,119
embrace you know, RPGs. Be
happy to like, go play like a

594
00:35:07,199 --> 00:35:10,199
Dragon Infinite Wealth, and that's a
decent game that's like, hey, this

595
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,599
is an open world with a lot
of stuff going on. It's not exactly

596
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,519
like that, but it's close enough. Maybe when the crazy text it comes

597
00:35:15,559 --> 00:35:20,159
out, it'll be a bit like
that. Damn. Then you know,

598
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,239
that's one of those what do they
call it? The ultimate games? I

599
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,719
can't remember, but yeah, you
know, I'm the weirdo who liked Watchdogs

600
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:29,079
Won five, like I Watch Talks
two is good and probably better, but

601
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,519
like Washington, you also really like
Assassin's Creed one, right, yeah,

602
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:35,360
yeah, I do like these ones
that people are always like Eve Sonic one.

603
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,840
I like these ones that people like, Oh these ones are rough,

604
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,840
then the sequel makes it better.
I kind of like the roughness sometimes,

605
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:44,199
and I don't you know, like
Watch Talks two is better, but it

606
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,800
thought it was better because it just
started being sillier, which I you know,

607
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:51,119
I get that's going to be more
popular. And maybe Watchdogs one did

608
00:35:51,199 --> 00:35:57,000
take itself too seriously, but there's
something to that sounds not everything's gotta be

609
00:35:57,159 --> 00:36:00,079
like you know, it's not huh, we got jokes, although I did

610
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:04,559
like that character who had the led
face. He was nice. Yeah,

611
00:36:04,639 --> 00:36:08,360
I and I thought Legion was a
bunch of interesting ideas and none of it

612
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:12,360
really came together in any really fun
ways. So yeah, too bad.

613
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,440
Yeah, Legion just clearly didn't work
out. Yep. Uh all right,

614
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,559
Ali Miracle says we're all skibbity in
me and motos World. Okay, what

615
00:36:19,679 --> 00:36:24,000
skibbity? Uh skimmity. I think
it's just it's bad or evil? Yes,

616
00:36:24,639 --> 00:36:29,559
uh like and skimmitty toilet I think
is. I do think this comes

617
00:36:29,599 --> 00:36:32,800
back from skibby toilets. I think
there's a song where the toilet sings and

618
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:37,519
it it has skibbity in the lyrics, and then I think the toilet is

619
00:36:37,599 --> 00:36:40,280
evil. It clearly is. There's
like a seventy eighty part like YouTube short

620
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:45,920
series of this skibbity toilet eventually turning
into like a giant mech like blowing up

621
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,840
cities. Don't worry, I'll make
you watch the whole thing next time.

622
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,440
Ye, what was the movie that
had the evil toy? Was it Look

623
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,400
Who's talking to or was it something
else? There wasn't evil toilet in a

624
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,840
movie, even toilet like Scared the
Baby or something. Yeah, it might

625
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,360
have been sounds familiar, yeah,
because he would have been enough for potty

626
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,039
trings. So it couldn't be the
first one. It had to be a

627
00:37:02,119 --> 00:37:06,840
sequel where Roseanne is the baby daughter, but not someone with the talking dogs

628
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,039
with he's talking now. No,
they love getting that toilet. So skimmity

629
00:37:10,159 --> 00:37:15,559
is batter evil. Well, Ohio
means cringe. Do you know that the

630
00:37:15,639 --> 00:37:20,119
kids literally literally did set it today? Yeah that's yeah. Oh well yeah,

631
00:37:20,559 --> 00:37:22,880
don't don't come here. It's so
cringe, it's terrible, you'll hate

632
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:28,079
it. Comfortable housing. Yeah,
it's mostly about like they were like apparently

633
00:37:28,119 --> 00:37:30,639
there was this period of time where
there were like four or five videos that

634
00:37:30,679 --> 00:37:34,760
were really cringey, and every single
one like took place in Ohio. So

635
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,159
it just like caught on with the
kids, like, oh that's so Ohio.

636
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,920
Something to be proud of yes,
uh and then Riz of course is

637
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,400
the other one that they still wonder
if that even the Olhawkins were doing it

638
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,280
when I was in Ohio, like
in high school, everybody had like,

639
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:50,840
uh stuck in Ohio like license plate
stickers or something. It was the cool

640
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:55,440
agy thing to do. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, listen. I was

641
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,840
listen. I didn't know what to
say that I did not portic. I

642
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:05,199
was in Michigan and up yeah.
I was like, I was like,

643
00:38:05,199 --> 00:38:07,679
all right, Tom for the next
super check. Yeah, I had to

644
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:12,440
read those actually, a char wolf
says Hi. Has Mike or Sean played

645
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,360
Pokemont, colisseum or XD really check
them out and they're pretty fun to go

646
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,960
back to, even though they're slow. I have both of them for shoot

647
00:38:20,119 --> 00:38:22,480
over there and I want to play
them for people don't know. These are

648
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:28,840
the GameCube games where like Pokemon Stam, you can import characters, but they

649
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:34,920
also have single player like story mode
things that are pretty well liked. So

650
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:37,320
I kind of fallen off playing GameCube
stream. I want to get back to

651
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,280
it very very soon, Jeff,
I want to be playing, you know,

652
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,880
for so long, like fifteen months
there. We did have that onslaught

653
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:46,840
and yeah, there's new games coming
up, But like I said, like

654
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,840
okay, like Stellar Blades out in
a game worth a crab who can't have

655
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,559
a gun but usually doesn't not good
game Stoll. But I don't feel like

656
00:38:54,599 --> 00:39:00,880
this insane pressure keep up like I
did for almost fourteen months straight there or

657
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,559
whatever for a while. It is
kind of nice that things have fun really

658
00:39:04,679 --> 00:39:07,519
slowed down a little bit. Yep. Yeah, I think we'll well.

659
00:39:07,679 --> 00:39:08,960
I think if it stays like this
through the holidays, where I'll be like,

660
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:10,519
man, this is kind of a
bummer. But at right now,

661
00:39:10,559 --> 00:39:14,599
I'm like, I'm welcoming it right
Like the fact that I was able for

662
00:39:14,679 --> 00:39:17,719
a week to just dream treasure play
it on the PS two was very nice.

663
00:39:19,199 --> 00:39:22,480
I liked it. Kiking Jacobson says
that Dolphin Slash GameCube is getting retro

664
00:39:22,559 --> 00:39:25,920
Achievements support soon for some reason.
I don't give a shit about achievements or

665
00:39:27,039 --> 00:39:30,079
trophies, but retro achievements I really
like they are better. It's just better.

666
00:39:30,079 --> 00:39:34,960
And they also like keep track of
speed running stuff like right on the

667
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,119
steam deck. It's so cool.
Cody Bishop says any plan on covering sand

668
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:45,079
Land on Giant Bomb maybe, I
think I think we did play it at

669
00:39:45,199 --> 00:39:47,199
some point, and like one of
the demos. I think, if not,

670
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,440
maybe I was just playing it for
then I was going to talk about

671
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,199
it on a bomb cast or something
like that. But I think we did

672
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:57,599
like a little demo thing, the
steam neck Fest. It's I didn't love

673
00:39:57,679 --> 00:40:00,760
the demo it was, but I'm
like, I I wonder if like that

674
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,960
was missing maybe the main thrust of
it. So like, and this is

675
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,000
also what I'm talking about, like, yeah, there's still new games coming

676
00:40:06,039 --> 00:40:07,880
out and they're like good, but
like Sandline has a seventy three on Metacritic

677
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:12,199
whatever, but it is like,
Okay, I don't feel insane pressure to

678
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,719
go and play sand Land right away. The show is pretty good. I

679
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:16,760
recommend the show. Oh it is. I'm glad to hear that. Is

680
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:22,400
that on? I think it's on
Netflix or something like that. I can't

681
00:40:22,559 --> 00:40:27,719
Yeah, I don't remember it's on
Well, it's on Disney Plus here,

682
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,400
so I don't know, Oh Disney
Maybe it was, so it's either who

683
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,440
were Disney plus here. Yeah,
there's plans, but that was part of

684
00:40:34,519 --> 00:40:36,400
Like that was one of the games
I was thinking about maybe playing for the

685
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:37,920
grab bag today. We had so
many that we were considering that it actually

686
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,480
didn't make that cut. Well,
maybe we'll do another one of those and

687
00:40:40,519 --> 00:40:44,599
give people a chance to vote if
they want to see it. El Grug

688
00:40:44,679 --> 00:40:47,159
says, right to hell, Mortal
Kombat mythologies, it's Superman sixty four is

689
00:40:47,159 --> 00:40:51,840
an insane lineup of Blake Club games. How does Jeff feel about his next

690
00:40:52,039 --> 00:40:57,199
non Dreamcast Blake game? Not great, El Grug? Not great? Okay

691
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,599
today, do you hear the yeah? I heard that you're peeking. I'm

692
00:41:00,639 --> 00:41:04,920
not peeking. Amaz unfailed. This
is not my fault. They sent it

693
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,840
in a clear plastic bag, and
I'm like, what the fuck is this?

694
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,679
I didn't order a yellow shirt with
a collar. And I'm like,

695
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:14,920
oh, Jeff Graub Blake Club,
Well it's here's here's the good news.

696
00:41:15,159 --> 00:41:16,840
No idea what that is. That's
what I realized. He's not gonna be

697
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:20,880
able to make any sense of that. Am I playing a bad golf game?

698
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,280
I don't know. Oh gosh,
I am so excited for for that

699
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,679
reveal on Wednesday. I want you
to know I did. I looked for

700
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:34,239
a Dreamcast game. There was like
one possible why am I could just tell

701
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,039
you now because it's not that there
was like a game based on the ring

702
00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:39,320
that was that's supposed to be bad, the wrror thing. But it's like,

703
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,199
I don't know, was it a
very sexy blake up pick. Dan

704
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,360
wasn't feeling it. Dan was probably
and Dan was saying earlier there's just not

705
00:41:45,519 --> 00:41:49,440
enough really bad Dreamcast games. I'm
like, yeah, that's probably right.

706
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:55,480
It's weird, that's me yeh all
right. Next one here is from super

707
00:41:55,679 --> 00:41:59,440
Blastics. I just got to work, so I haven't checked all of y'all's

708
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,840
counting yet. But if Dan or
Grubb given their thoughts on the ano flip

709
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,639
the flip yet, I in neo
flip, I in neo flip. That's

710
00:42:06,679 --> 00:42:08,480
way more syllables than I would have
guessed the I in neo flipped. We'll

711
00:42:08,519 --> 00:42:12,480
love to hear what you guys have
to say. Thank you. Dan has

712
00:42:12,559 --> 00:42:15,320
it. I don't. He is
checking it out, though he keeps showing

713
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,400
me all the cool things he's doing
with it. I think it looks really

714
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:22,960
interesting. It is. I think
it's his first just straight up like windows

715
00:42:22,039 --> 00:42:25,159
handheld, and so that like threw
him off like for a second, and

716
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,599
then he immediately was like, oh, you could do so much with this,

717
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,280
and he has been he's been playing
stuff like a Link between Worlds on

718
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:37,239
it because it's the dual screen.
So and he also was like really happy

719
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,280
with it because it's more compact.
So he's like kind of thinking about taking

720
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,760
places where he wouldn't maybe have taken
the steam deck. That said, I'm

721
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,920
like interested to see how battery life
is and all those things. But I

722
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,559
think we'll get a chance to talk
about it next time he's on the BombCast

723
00:42:49,639 --> 00:42:51,679
for sure. But maybe we'll just
do a video dedicated to it. I

724
00:42:51,679 --> 00:42:55,000
don't know, we'll see Salaam Hillfinger
says, I'm not asking you to go

725
00:42:55,119 --> 00:42:59,960
firmer and I but I'm just saying
this game name out loud, trestpath,

726
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:02,440
sir, love you all. Will
that be drastic park Trespassers. That's something

727
00:43:02,519 --> 00:43:07,360
else I am. I mean,
I think there's a trespasser was very old.

728
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,440
That's not what the new game's called. Yeah, there is a rumor

729
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:13,599
that there's a new trustpasser game,
but I don't know anything about a truspasser

730
00:43:13,679 --> 00:43:17,679
game. Oh is this the Was
this the code name for the do guest

731
00:43:17,679 --> 00:43:22,079
singer? Am I completely making that
up? I'm gonnaut here from Kotaku,

732
00:43:22,199 --> 00:43:28,639
Uh trustpasser to Oh, they're trying
to guess a black club game, that's

733
00:43:28,679 --> 00:43:31,960
what it is. Oh, well, I'm not gonna say this or no.

734
00:43:32,079 --> 00:43:37,599
Although for my confusion right now,
you might have well you're a very

735
00:43:37,639 --> 00:43:40,360
good actor, could be like you're
very expressed. You're right, You're I

736
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:45,119
have a lot of respect for you. Jeff, Okay, Well we'll see.

737
00:43:45,199 --> 00:43:47,559
Wow, that's what we're doing.
Bake Fresh thirty seven says, you

738
00:43:47,639 --> 00:43:52,239
guys have heard this old uh infrogrames
rocks my World song? Right been in

739
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,840
my head ever since the news broke
a few days ago. I have not

740
00:43:55,039 --> 00:43:59,320
heard that song. Actually I heard
people bring it up, but I didn't.

741
00:44:00,079 --> 00:44:02,599
I didn't look it up myself.
Yeah, it's definitely something that people

742
00:44:02,639 --> 00:44:05,880
have been like, they're they're mind
blown by. I think it was like

743
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:07,559
a bit on Giant Bomb or something. So I was like, oh,

744
00:44:07,599 --> 00:44:10,639
we can't like redo that bit.
So I think that's why I didn't even

745
00:44:10,679 --> 00:44:14,800
look it up. Dark band,
he says, don't care what people say.

746
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,320
I'm going to play Stellar Blade because
of someone's Korean but can't speak as

747
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:22,519
then language. Best to support my
culture diversity as Japanese games are overpopulated to

748
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:28,920
other Asian devs. Good news is
no one's gonna say anything. I mean,

749
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,159
I don't I don't want to get
into all of that stuff too much,

750
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:36,079
except that, of course the game
actually coming out getting reviews has changed

751
00:44:36,199 --> 00:44:39,639
good good reviews has changed absolutely nothing. That the people who are still mad

752
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:45,000
and have their ax to grind about
their perceived unfairness as game is getting for

753
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:50,360
critics are still real mad about other
things, mostly imagined. So you know,

754
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,519
of course it's all very stupid.
But yeah, go play Stellar Blade

755
00:44:52,519 --> 00:44:55,079
if you want to, and play
Stellar Blade because it's yeah, because it's

756
00:44:55,079 --> 00:44:58,079
from South Korea. I think that's
a great We can play that game.

757
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:01,239
Those those developers have been doing great
stuff for forever, and now they're like

758
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:05,159
kind of putting out awesome games in
the console space. That to me nothing

759
00:45:05,159 --> 00:45:07,280
but good news. Bob as Me
says, I wanted to get your thoughts

760
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,519
on Tales of Kenzara. It is
a lot more derivative of Ori than I

761
00:45:10,559 --> 00:45:14,840
expected, to the point that I
think I might want to play or rather

762
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,679
than this or the new game from
Riri Dev's. Well, the new game

763
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:21,719
from ARIDV is nothing like a Metroid
Vinya, right. I talked about that

764
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,280
on the BombCast. It's a top
down souls like game. It's an early

765
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:29,719
access. Now I've seen people say
this maybe a Segely get it other way.

766
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,599
I don't get a ton of Orri, specifally from Kenzara. I don't

767
00:45:32,639 --> 00:45:37,840
know. I get more as the
game went on, and maybe that's what

768
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:43,400
it is. Then it's but as
escape sequences apparently too. Huh. Yeah,

769
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,880
it has several escape sequences, and
those that's when it was like really

770
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:47,159
hitting, like, oh, this
game was taking more from RI than I

771
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:52,159
realized. But it's it's not that
derivative of RI overall. And Or is

772
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,039
a Metroidvania. I mean, yeah, it's like doing a lot of cool

773
00:45:55,079 --> 00:46:00,599
new stuff there, but it's at
its heart it's kind of a derivative genre.

774
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:04,519
I mean it's called metroid Vanya,
that's right. And what we want

775
00:46:04,599 --> 00:46:07,800
from them is to be like Metroid
or Castlevania Symphony of the Night. That's

776
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:12,960
what we want. So I really
don't. I don't feel good holding that

777
00:46:13,039 --> 00:46:16,400
against a game and being like another
game in the genre. That said,

778
00:46:16,519 --> 00:46:20,000
if you're not feeling tells of Cancerras
out, I don't blame you. I

779
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,480
think it's a I think it's a
good game that kind of borders on fine,

780
00:46:23,199 --> 00:46:28,559
more closer to fine than great.
And if the story does not win

781
00:46:28,639 --> 00:46:30,239
you over, then yeah I would. I can imagine I could see you

782
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:36,480
putting it down, no problem,
crossing Boomer Hidden Zoomer says Capcom just needs

783
00:46:36,519 --> 00:46:40,199
to adapt the Proto Man rock opera. Man. I loved Proto Men when

784
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,599
I discovered them, but that was
like thirteen years ago now, Like I

785
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:49,480
saw them at the first Packs East
and their Act two album was out then.

786
00:46:50,039 --> 00:46:52,280
I don't think Act three has still
come out yet. Are they still

787
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,760
like actively working on it. I
think I think they like may want and

788
00:46:55,880 --> 00:47:00,840
scrapped it, and then some people
have left and and all this stuff.

789
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:05,880
I think it's a little bit like
the last song of Versus Fire or the

790
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:07,960
next song of the Fire Ice and
Fire Book, right, it's kind of

791
00:47:08,079 --> 00:47:12,000
like, yeah, they're working on
it, probably, I guess. I

792
00:47:12,079 --> 00:47:14,119
don't think we're ever going to see
it, but they're working on it.

793
00:47:14,639 --> 00:47:16,679
Yeah, But they're released a single
or two that's supposed to be from it,

794
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:21,800
like what came out in twenty twenty
two, but there's no album,

795
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,360
And I don't know if there ever
will be fair enough. It's too bad.

796
00:47:25,599 --> 00:47:30,239
Uh. Next one here is from
Mikey O'learria says, I don't know.

797
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,960
Let's all get together for juice Boxes
and a double feature of Heavyweights and

798
00:47:34,039 --> 00:47:39,280
Camp Nowhere and never seeing Camp Nowhere. But Heavyweights is one of the best

799
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:49,320
movies ever. No, yes,
yes, absolutely, it is no good.

800
00:47:49,519 --> 00:47:55,360
I'm not gonna I won't accept it
until you watch Goonies. Heavyweights is

801
00:47:55,440 --> 00:48:02,119
great. The Goonies think They're Goonies
is a fantastic movie. I never said

802
00:48:02,159 --> 00:48:05,079
goody stinks. I just said a
dinner. It wasn't like my thing.

803
00:48:05,159 --> 00:48:09,599
I didn't know. I want you. I have the yeah, you have

804
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:13,559
the stink of a Goonies fans what
I said? That's right, that is

805
00:48:13,599 --> 00:48:16,400
correct. I think ay Wit is
pretty good. That is anyway quite a

806
00:48:17,159 --> 00:48:21,400
yeah. I still I still quote, uh, what's his face's? Character

807
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:24,280
from that Bence stores Benisour is so
good. He's basically doing a proto version

808
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:30,440
of his character from Dodgeball, and
yet it's so funny. Oh god.

809
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:32,079
At the end of the movie,
where like the kids should like they're they're

810
00:48:32,159 --> 00:48:36,239
like film of how terrible Camp was, and they thought that they like had

811
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:37,159
locked them up. But he's like, hey, you get the raptors that

812
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,480
he's doing the slow cap. He's
like, oh, what a what a

813
00:48:40,519 --> 00:48:45,960
film. The editing technique, the
cinematography, he does like a triple backflip

814
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,079
on the He's like, by the
part of the villain was a little over

815
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,519
the top. Oh my god,
is it good? I love that movie.

816
00:48:57,039 --> 00:49:00,079
The next one here is waits Camp
Nowhere, the one with the I

817
00:49:00,199 --> 00:49:02,679
from Home Alone. I don't I
don't know a thing about Camp Nowhere.

818
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:06,480
Actually I don't know nothing about that. Is it? I would have thought

819
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,760
of Ernest Goes to Camp as the
next one. Uh oh no, it's

820
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:13,519
it's the one with Christopher Lloyd.
I think, oh really, oh,

821
00:49:13,559 --> 00:49:15,239
I probably like that a lot.
Then I like Christopher Lloyd. Now you

822
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:19,280
know, I see this box I'm
like, man, I remember this from

823
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,000
like Blockbuster, seeing the box art
of it, right, and I was

824
00:49:22,039 --> 00:49:25,079
thinking of bush Whacked. You know
what, I'm gonna watch all three?

825
00:49:25,519 --> 00:49:29,039
Just decide that sounds a great time. That's like, I just got that

826
00:49:29,159 --> 00:49:31,519
outside like patio things set up.
I'll put almost see if I can get

827
00:49:31,519 --> 00:49:35,000
like a little computer set up in
there. I'll just watch all three outside

828
00:49:35,039 --> 00:49:37,039
the Sound. That's an interesting genre
for a while. They're camp movies like

829
00:49:37,159 --> 00:49:40,400
we had like these and Ernest goes
to camp. We had camp Kresty on

830
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:44,760
The Simpsons, the kids go to
camp anymore. I went to camp?

831
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:49,000
Uh did goes to summer camp.
I don't think he goes like overnight and

832
00:49:49,079 --> 00:49:51,079
he just goes to summer camp each
day. Is that what you did?

833
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:52,000
Oh? No, I was there
for like a week. Yes, I

834
00:49:52,079 --> 00:49:54,360
did some. I did summer camp
with boy Scouts. That's what I did.

835
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:59,119
And I was there for like a
week maybe two. I didn't like

836
00:49:59,199 --> 00:50:01,480
it. I love it. I
loved it. It was so much fun.

837
00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:05,679
No, I was not a fan. It was I thought it was

838
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:10,599
kind of dirty and grips. The
camp counselor stole my uh uh where he

839
00:50:10,599 --> 00:50:15,039
would He kept taking my Calvin and
Hobb's books. I was stuck with my

840
00:50:15,119 --> 00:50:19,760
Magic School Bus book instead. Sludge
Reinhold says, hello, Jeff t here

841
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,119

community of our games and rumors, grub

842
00:50:23,199 --> 00:50:27,960
and my why Milk minority. Wow, hope you're all having good evenings that

843
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,039
it's all. Thank you, Sludge, you too. You have still a

844
00:50:31,199 --> 00:50:35,280
very good name. Burrito says,
Hey, guys, here's a tip for

845
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,440
the latest bike Club. Wanted Dan
to have a bit of a terrible time.

846
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:42,880
It was not disappointed. I am
satisfied. I think everyone satisfied.

847
00:50:43,039 --> 00:50:47,239
Yes, guess whatever Dan had coming
to him, he got it. He

848
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:51,599
got it. He has paid the
blood price, lazy and gentlemen. We

849
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,239
got him. And he's got freaking
Jake Drake of the Diny Night Dragons and

850
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:59,440
so Terminator game coming his way.
Also, yeah, he'll be miserable for

851
00:50:59,519 --> 00:51:01,079
a while. We are, I
am It is funny, how bit it

852
00:51:01,119 --> 00:51:05,639
goes like man Dance begetting it so
easy. He's just played one game,

853
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,360
blah blah blah. Then he took
time off to just like he definitely played

854
00:51:08,519 --> 00:51:13,519
the worst game. Oh yeah,
god, I am so glad we made

855
00:51:13,599 --> 00:51:16,280
him play Superman sixty four when we
did me too. That was perfect.

856
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:22,719
Big frustrating sentences. Greg Miller latched
onto the Infogrames song because it's hilarious,

857
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:27,280
but he didn't invent it. It's
in Infogrames og reportably cost him fifty thousand

858
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:30,559
dollars. Greg Miller, That okay, all right, all right, let's

859
00:51:30,559 --> 00:51:37,159
see if I have it here you
hear it? Yeah, I'm gonna play

860
00:51:37,159 --> 00:51:40,760
this whole thicke. It's three and
a half minutes. Makes it sounds like

861
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:45,199
Adam Sandler. Yeah, give me, give me Maady literally more juice,

862
00:51:46,599 --> 00:51:53,960
Testra, I just hurt. I'm
real Tournament and they shine, Superman says,

863
00:51:54,320 --> 00:52:00,719
and they shot Dancing Hotline, dragon
Ball, look on the doc and

864
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:28,960
that's not all sas entertainment, small
programs, oh ship, It's just like

865
00:52:29,079 --> 00:52:34,559
an EPCOT song. This is literally
like the songs we played to step Free.

866
00:52:35,599 --> 00:52:53,000
It feels like a song written by
Ai today. It does rock my

867
00:52:53,159 --> 00:52:57,480
world. There's planty more they got. We'll get more juice out of that

868
00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:00,400
style here the last one from kind
of Wood and play the infrogram song.

869
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,920
You won't regret it? Yeah,
you're right, con Yeah, I don't

870
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:07,239
regret it. Holy shit. Okay, Well that was fantastic, man.

871
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:08,920
The part where they were just saying
the names of the video games they published

872
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:14,320
and making them, that was the
best part. What right when you boosted

873
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:19,639
it up? Immediately just heard Unreal
Tournament, yep Tournament, test Drive,

874
00:53:21,159 --> 00:53:23,400
Motivilization. There was an in sync
game, I think Yeah, I said

875
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:29,760
dragon Ball, and that's not all. Okay, that's good. That's good

876
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,639
stuff. Very excited about that.
Welcome back Infogram, We'll come back.

877
00:53:32,679 --> 00:53:36,280
That's why they brought it back.
They Yeah, that song was is that

878
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,280
powerful? Apparently? Okay, so
the song can't cost fifty thousand dollars,

879
00:53:38,519 --> 00:53:43,920
God damn bad. What the repenny? Yeah, I ran a company.

880
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,679
I'd pay fifty thousand dollars for that. That's nothing. All right, we're

881
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:50,559
done with super chats. Do you
want to do you want to just shown

882
00:53:50,639 --> 00:53:53,800
for riding into the topic, or
you want to do a break? No,

883
00:53:54,079 --> 00:53:55,880
it's like a break. Let's take
it. I set it up.

884
00:53:55,880 --> 00:54:00,679
Anyways, I go a bathroom.
All right, we're back. Let's do

885
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:06,880
this. Uh. This week we
are going to decide the best games of

886
00:54:07,159 --> 00:54:10,320
twenty twenty. Uh. This was
a this is the beginning of the pandemic.

887
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,840
I'm I'm like, and yet I'm
like, I can I know a

888
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,559
couple of games for sure, because
I associate it with the beginning of the

889
00:54:15,639 --> 00:54:20,519
pandemic. But it was also I
think it was also a pretty good year

890
00:54:20,559 --> 00:54:22,000
for games overall. But I'm gonna
have to take a look here and see

891
00:54:22,039 --> 00:54:25,039
what it is. It's also weird
because like this is when the PS five

892
00:54:25,079 --> 00:54:29,440
and Xbox Series X launched. Okay, that's messed up when I think about

893
00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:30,840
it. Messed up. Yeah,
because like I saw Demon Souls on here,

894
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:32,400
which you know, I don't think
that'd make it, but like I

895
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:36,079
saw it, I was like,
what, No, that doesn't make sense.

896
00:54:36,159 --> 00:54:38,079
Devensils is a PSI have launched game. That's a new system, not

897
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:42,679
that new. It's not that new. Yep, we are yeah, we're

898
00:54:42,679 --> 00:54:46,440
getting Yeah, it's twenty twenty four. Okay, Mike, I'm gonna let

899
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,840
you start with this just to let
people know what we do here. If

900
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,960
this is your first time listen to
this. We go through me and Mike.

901
00:54:52,079 --> 00:54:55,079
We offer up a bunch uh and
then we started we have to cut

902
00:54:55,079 --> 00:54:59,239
it down to a top five.
We do take some input from our podcast

903
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,760
producers, but this list is me
and Mike. We come up with this

904
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,400
list and we determine the order of
everything. So we're gonna do that.

905
00:55:05,519 --> 00:55:07,800
Now, Mike, offer up your
first game for the top five games of

906
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:13,400
twenty twenty Orion The Will of the
Wests. Oh oh yeah, that was

907
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,320
this year. That was this year. This was when I made my passionate

908
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:19,760
speed over speech over at games Beat
to make it Games Beats Game of the

909
00:55:20,159 --> 00:55:25,519
Year. Still probably my favorite.
Metrovinya and I love metro Vinyas, and

910
00:55:25,559 --> 00:55:30,719
there are so many good ones.
This one pretty much has it all.

911
00:55:30,039 --> 00:55:34,400
It has that kind of understated style
of storytelling that I like. There's a

912
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:37,159
few textboxes here and there, but
mostly things are just sort of told through

913
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:43,960
the world and through context. Incredible
visual Still a gorgeous and striking game,

914
00:55:44,079 --> 00:55:47,599
super fun and smooth platforming. They
made the combat a lot more interesting in

915
00:55:47,679 --> 00:55:52,239
this one. They made boss battles
a thing here, and those are spectacular.

916
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:57,159
I still think about the final boss
against Shriek in this all the time.

917
00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:02,559
Just an incredible finale, a fantastic
passage package all around. Or Weld

918
00:56:02,599 --> 00:56:07,039
the West one of my all time
favorites. Uh yeah for me, it's

919
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,639
this is a pretty easy one.
Hades. I think this is the year

920
00:56:09,679 --> 00:56:13,760
that Hades went one point. Oh
you're supposed to say something about Or first,

921
00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:15,599
Oh, sure, yeah, but
you did such a good job and

922
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:20,519
or he is also very good.
I love I do like Or quite a

923
00:56:20,599 --> 00:56:22,440
bit. And when you did make
your impassion speech, I'm like, yeah,

924
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:24,840
he's right, I do like it
that much. And I was totally

925
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:28,679
happy to make a game of the
Year for game speed. I don't know

926
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:30,440
where where one of my personal lists, I think it was top five,

927
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:36,519
but I really really do enjoy or
Hades. Yeah, is this the year

928
00:56:36,519 --> 00:56:38,559
that Hades went one point oh?
I think it says Haites one point oh

929
00:56:38,679 --> 00:56:43,719
year. And uh, that's a
pretty good video game. That's a it's

930
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,119
a yeah, it's a really good
game. That is one that I just

931
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:52,039
could not stop playing. Is it
does so many things right? It does

932
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:57,320
it kind of unlocks more potential in
a genre that was already finding its footing.

933
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:00,639
The roguelike genre was pretty well established
at this point, and I think

934
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:02,719
people were like, well, I
don't like rogue lights because I don't like

935
00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:07,079
it feeling like I'm not making progress
towards something. Well this solved that by

936
00:57:07,159 --> 00:57:10,159
being like, here's story progression,
which you probably care about even more because

937
00:57:10,159 --> 00:57:13,719
you're a freak, and it's like, yeah, this is good stuff,

938
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,400
and every time you like do something, the game will move forward in so

939
00:57:16,559 --> 00:57:21,480
many more important ways that you feel
like things are going in one direction and

940
00:57:21,559 --> 00:57:24,039
you haven't lost anything, and those
skills that you're building up to play the

941
00:57:24,079 --> 00:57:28,239
game even better that will matter more, and it is a game that actually

942
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:31,280
is pretty important to upgrade your character
overall, that stuff is there as well,

943
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:36,360
but it goes to hand in hand
with improving as a player. And

944
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,280
then the story is very good.
The characters are incredible, the music is

945
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:43,920
incredible, it looks fantastic. It's
such a good overall package. Yeah,

946
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:47,239
it's still definitely my favorite roguelike.
But you're right because like, doing the

947
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:51,280
runs feels great, and I love
how much variation there can be there.

948
00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,920
But having that permanent progression, not
just with the upgrades that you're getting,

949
00:57:55,039 --> 00:58:00,320
but the way that the story is
evolving in your home base is changing based

950
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:04,559
on that stuff, and there are
like these goals beyond just completing a run.

951
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:10,400
It felt so good. It was
an absolutely addicting, never boring experience

952
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:14,119
that I only thought because like I, you know, I was at a

953
00:58:14,159 --> 00:58:15,840
point where like, okay, I
kind of have at least done most of

954
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:19,760
the carts on the sticks that I
care about. There could have been more,

955
00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,480
but I could have probably kept going. I sometimes wish I would go

956
00:58:23,599 --> 00:58:27,360
back to it. It's so much
fun. Yeah, for YouTube game,

957
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,519
I'm like, looking at the rest
of the games came out of this year.

958
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:31,679
I remember twenty twenty now being like
the year I fell out of sync

959
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:36,320
with most other people because there were
so many huge games and most of them

960
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:37,800
didn't hit for me. And it's
like I did spend a lot of time

961
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,679
with habes. I'm like, Okay, I'm gonna be just fine. Games

962
00:58:40,719 --> 00:58:44,159
like this are coming out and everyone
else is getting these other games that they

963
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,199
love. But it's like, I'm
wondering where this list is going to end

964
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,639
up, because I'm interested to see
what else you're going to get on here.

965
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,639
So yeah, go ahead. I
see a lot of games that I

966
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:55,719
like. And another really really big
one for me is Final Fantasy seven remake.

967
00:58:57,119 --> 00:59:00,440
Right that was twenty twenty. Yeah, and we had Reap just now,

968
00:59:00,519 --> 00:59:02,159
And you know, it's interesting people
are kind of hear people kind of

969
00:59:02,199 --> 00:59:06,159
talk about which one they like more. I think I might like Rebirth more.

970
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:07,960
I like the open world stuff in
that a lot. I like having

971
00:59:08,079 --> 00:59:14,280
a ton of goofy and silly mini
games. I also really like remakes Focus.

972
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:16,440
I love that it just takes place
in Midguard and they let that one

973
00:59:16,559 --> 00:59:22,719
city really come alive. The stuff
they did here with expanding characters like Jesse

974
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:28,599
and other Avalanche characters worked really well
for me. And this introduces that combat

975
00:59:28,639 --> 00:59:31,920
system, which I think is maybe
the best combat system ever. It is

976
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:37,960
definitely the best way to make a
marriage between a turn based RPG and something

977
00:59:37,039 --> 00:59:40,679
a bit more action y. It's
so good I would be happy if more

978
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:45,960
games used it. Love Love Love
Fun Fantasy seven Roommate also just insane soundtrack.

979
00:59:49,719 --> 00:59:52,519
Yeah, I found Fltasy seven is
also one that I did enjoy.

980
00:59:52,519 --> 00:59:53,159
I didn't play a ton of it, but I play. I played.

981
00:59:53,239 --> 00:59:55,480
I think I got close to about
ten hours, So for me, that's

982
00:59:55,719 --> 01:00:00,679
quite a bit for an RPG of
any kind. And the thing that clearly

983
01:00:00,719 --> 01:00:02,920
stuck out to me is it's a
really fun combat system. Everyone is right

984
01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:07,320
about that. It really does hold
up that entire game for me. And

985
01:00:07,239 --> 01:00:09,480
you know, it looked great,
and I thought the characters were pretty cool,

986
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:15,119
and as someone who has only ever
dabbled in Final Fantasy seven, it

987
01:00:15,239 --> 01:00:19,360
was like, Okay, I have
always seen these characters as iconographic, and

988
01:00:19,559 --> 01:00:22,679
I think they're doing a great job
with them. And while I was playing

989
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:25,199
it not really fully understanding what they
were trying to do with the story,

990
01:00:25,199 --> 01:00:28,679
I'm like, it would be interesting
if they did this, and it turns

991
01:00:28,679 --> 01:00:30,159
out that's exactly the game they were
making, and I think that's cool.

992
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,880
And I know fans have their debates
about that, but from where I'm standing,

993
01:00:34,079 --> 01:00:37,480
I think they took a cool stab
at something new and different for a

994
01:00:37,559 --> 01:00:42,239
remake, and I think that's really
really neat for me. I think the

995
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:46,400
next one I probably would go with
is probably Spider Man Miles Morales. Actually,

996
01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:52,400
I wow, yeah, yeah,
I'm a big fan of Miles Morales,

997
01:00:52,559 --> 01:00:57,320
the character and the game, and
I think this is like such a

998
01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:00,679
good refinement, such a good expand
alone of let's take the same city,

999
01:01:01,079 --> 01:01:05,960
Let's take this character that we established
in the first game. Let's let players

1000
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:09,000
plays that character and keep things a
little bit more limited. And everything is

1001
01:01:09,039 --> 01:01:15,440
improved by that. And I don't
think that necessarily the story holds up to

1002
01:01:15,159 --> 01:01:19,360
Peter Parker's story in that first Spider
Man game, but it's good enough,

1003
01:01:19,719 --> 01:01:22,800
and I think everything else is better
just because they were, like, knew

1004
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:27,039
what was fun and they just did
that instead. And they definitely learned their

1005
01:01:27,079 --> 01:01:30,679
lesson for Spider Man two as well. But Miles Morales really holds up for

1006
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,960
me. Yeah, and hey,
it's area I love the Christmas five.

1007
01:01:34,119 --> 01:01:36,039
That's a ton of fun. Yes, kind of Maybe you want to go

1008
01:01:36,079 --> 01:01:38,119
back to it every Christmas. Just
see New York snowy and you get just

1009
01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:40,639
do that opening mission, right.
I think that opening mission. I still

1010
01:01:40,679 --> 01:01:44,519
think that opening mission is way better
than Spider Man two's opening mission with the

1011
01:01:44,599 --> 01:01:45,920
sad Man. I know that people
were really blown away by that, but

1012
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:50,159
it didn't work for me at all, And it was part of that was

1013
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:55,000
remembering how much I love Miles Morales's
opening mission. Uh, okay, I

1014
01:01:55,719 --> 01:02:01,039
am going to actually go with Streets
Rage four next. Oh that's a good

1015
01:02:01,079 --> 01:02:05,480
one. I'm glad you remember that. Yeah, Streets of Rage four was

1016
01:02:05,599 --> 01:02:09,679
a man. This series had been
dormant for in insanely long time. Would

1017
01:02:09,719 --> 01:02:14,440
have never thought it was coming back, And then we got this awesome version

1018
01:02:14,519 --> 01:02:17,320
with this gorgeous to the art that
I really love the way this game looks.

1019
01:02:19,159 --> 01:02:22,400
They kind of made the combat system
very similar to to but a bit

1020
01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:24,960
more complex in some ways. There's
more juggling and things like that, a

1021
01:02:25,079 --> 01:02:29,800
ton of more playable characters. This
game would later get pretty good DLC also

1022
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:34,360
including a roguelike mode that I played
through. Streets of Rage four a ton

1023
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,599
of times, really really love it. I think this is part of what

1024
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:42,119
made Beat Them Ups have a bit
of a comeback there for a while.

1025
01:02:42,199 --> 01:02:44,960
Maybe still going on, but this
was a huge factor there. Good,

1026
01:02:45,039 --> 01:02:46,719
good, good stuff. I think
it's I think it's the best Beat them

1027
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:52,159
up ever in my opinion. I
really really enjoy it. And I am

1028
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,760
so impressed that you know, this
is true for a lot of these games

1029
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:59,480
that are in this this zone of
indies where it's like they want to keep

1030
01:02:59,519 --> 01:03:01,440
updating, keep adding new stuff,
and it's gonna get like a Rogue Lake

1031
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:04,920
mode of its own. It does. It's got that. It's very good

1032
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:07,519
played. Every time my sister in
law comes over, she's a big streets

1033
01:03:07,599 --> 01:03:12,360
Rage fan. My wife is a
big streets Rage fan. That they've played

1034
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,599
together as kids. Yes, they've
played together as kids. As sisters,

1035
01:03:15,639 --> 01:03:19,400
they were like always playing streets Rage
two usually, but they played all of

1036
01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:21,800
them, and so I was like, I like streets Rage as well.

1037
01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:23,679
This new one's out, let's play
it. And the sister in law always

1038
01:03:23,679 --> 01:03:27,800
brings over her copy and she's played
it a ton, so she has everything

1039
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,280
unlocked, and it's like such a
cool game when you do have everything.

1040
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:34,039
They did such a good job with
that out of the gate, and the

1041
01:03:34,119 --> 01:03:36,920
fact that they kept supporting it making
it better. It is such a good

1042
01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:43,920
game at this point. Tony Hawk's
pro Skater one plus two. Yes,

1043
01:03:44,119 --> 01:03:47,719
this is kind of a forever game
for me at this point where I just

1044
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:52,239
play this game whenever I need to
just turn something on and turn my brain

1045
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:57,800
off. It is. They really
nailed it, and it's never soft or

1046
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:00,920
not never soft. It was a
god the name of the students. No,

1047
01:04:01,039 --> 01:04:06,360
it's the one that got absorbed into
not fulition. Vicarious Visions, Thank

1048
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:11,199
you, Vicarious Visions. Going back
to Tony Hawk after working on a lot

1049
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:14,280
of the ports for a very long
time back in the day, and they

1050
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:16,639
just nailed the feel in such a
in all the crucial ways, and it

1051
01:04:16,719 --> 01:04:21,440
looked cool, and they did cool
things like update the Tony Hawk bottle to

1052
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:26,679
make them look old and have them
re record his grunts, so that was

1053
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,400
it was old Tony Hawk and all
that stuff was a really nice touch.

1054
01:04:29,679 --> 01:04:31,719
But it's like you just go back
these levels and you remember where everything was

1055
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:35,000
and how they feel, and they
still feel that way, and then it

1056
01:04:35,159 --> 01:04:39,559
just like holds up in a modern
way and the soundtrack is mostly fully intact.

1057
01:04:39,599 --> 01:04:42,639
They just did such a good job
with this game. Yeah, it's

1058
01:04:42,719 --> 01:04:45,920
just Tony August is so good and
this is just a fantastic way to play

1059
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:49,199
it now. It looks awesome an
time. I love the way they kind

1060
01:04:49,239 --> 01:04:53,239
of combined to Wanted two into one
game. That seals, right, and

1061
01:04:53,599 --> 01:04:55,800
you know, there's like a separation
there, but it is kind of one

1062
01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:59,480
game and I love that. Yeah, I could play this whenever they did

1063
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:03,480
job as one of the best remakes
ever. Okay, I can go a

1064
01:05:03,559 --> 01:05:08,880
few places. I think I'm actually
gonna go with thirteen Sentinels next though,

1065
01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:11,400
right, I was wondering if this
would come up. Yeah, and I

1066
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,760
didn't. I didn't play Toil quite
a bit later when it came to the

1067
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:18,480
switch. But you know, that's
a slightly different version, but not much.

1068
01:05:18,559 --> 01:05:23,719
It's the same game. Thirteenth Sentinels
is largely a visual novel with very

1069
01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:28,639
light kind of like playing click adventure
game elements in that stuff. But it's

1070
01:05:28,719 --> 01:05:34,239
that mix with this kind of RTS
tower defense mode also, and both aspects

1071
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:39,039
of it actually worked for me really
well. I like the way Vanilla ware

1072
01:05:39,079 --> 01:05:41,760
games look a lot. I think
that they're really shrinking, and they do

1073
01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:45,679
a good job of making something that
is unique. Not much else looks like

1074
01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:47,880
it. And even though like this
game's kind of high concept and it's the

1075
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:53,159
plot is a bit twisty and weird, sometimes that stuff doesn't work for me

1076
01:05:53,159 --> 01:05:56,639
at all. This worked for me. There was enough of a logic to

1077
01:05:56,760 --> 01:06:01,280
it, and it ultimately went somewhere
satisfying that I liked the narrative of it

1078
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:05,760
all. This was just a very
satisfying playthrough for me. I really enjoyed

1079
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:10,599
my time with Thirteen Sentinels, and
you love those naked teens. Yeah,

1080
01:06:10,639 --> 01:06:13,239
you had to say it. Well, well, you said I have to

1081
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:15,400
say some about every game, and
that's what I said about that. Now,

1082
01:06:15,519 --> 01:06:17,760
Jeff, I did bring this upon
myself. You're right, Yes you

1083
01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:21,480
did. I'm saying it's your fault. You got it all right. I

1084
01:06:21,599 --> 01:06:27,360
think the next one I would go
with his Animal Crossing New Horizons, important

1085
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:30,360
pandemic game. I think it really
hit. Obviously, it hit really well.

1086
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:32,280
We talked about that a ton,
but it's just a good fun game.

1087
01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:35,039
I think evidence of that is the
fact that, like, you never

1088
01:06:35,079 --> 01:06:38,480
really got an animal crossing before.
I think you had a pretty good time

1089
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:40,840
with this game, right, Yeah, I liked Animal Crossing. Okay,

1090
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,920
this is definitely the most I played
of one. This to me is the

1091
01:06:44,159 --> 01:06:45,840
most twenty twenty game. This is
the first game I think of when I

1092
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:51,039
think about the pandemic, I think
about twenty twenty. This game got a

1093
01:06:51,159 --> 01:06:57,559
bigger switch bump than anything Animal Crossing
always did like good and then this was

1094
01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:01,880
a massive hit in a way that
it was just really interesting to see.

1095
01:07:02,039 --> 01:07:05,039
My fairite thing about this game is
the glow up that the museum got.

1096
01:07:05,119 --> 01:07:09,400
I loved how much of the museum
looked like an actual, like naturally asser

1097
01:07:09,519 --> 01:07:12,639
museum in this one. That was
a ton of fun. It was great

1098
01:07:12,719 --> 01:07:15,280
just decorating my island. You know. Of course, there are some Nintendo

1099
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:17,360
stuff that still made it obnoxious or
more annoying than it had to be to

1100
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:21,760
visit people's islands and all that stuff, But so much what was fun about

1101
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:26,159
this was the zeitgeist. Everybody was
playing this game. Everybody was talking about

1102
01:07:26,199 --> 01:07:29,599
it. It was neat yep,
and huge parts of it are like,

1103
01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:32,280
that's still Animal Crossing. I know
other people have issues with like, oh,

1104
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:36,199
the villagers aren't quite as interesting as
they used to be in my opinion

1105
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:40,159
or whatever. I'm like, yeah, okay, everything kind of hit and

1106
01:07:40,199 --> 01:07:42,800
worked for me. And that's a
big part of that is I like the

1107
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:45,440
villagers being around. I don't need
to interact with them a ton. I

1108
01:07:45,519 --> 01:07:49,039
am the museum. That is what
I'm going for. So just going fishing,

1109
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:53,840
finding things, that's, you know, having these daily activities, living

1110
01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:56,280
on my own. That's the kind
of stuff I like out of that game.

1111
01:07:56,320 --> 01:08:01,880
They really got all those things right, anythils from you? I think,

1112
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:08,400
yes, I did speak again,
excuse me, that one's on me.

1113
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,360
You're such an idiot, Mike.
Here, I can go up myself

1114
01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:15,159
too. It's fine, half life
Alex. Oh yeah, that's right.

1115
01:08:15,239 --> 01:08:16,840
You played this game, that's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah I did.

1116
01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:19,720
And you know, it's weird because
I like this game a lot.

1117
01:08:20,359 --> 01:08:25,800
I think it's quality is undeniable,
and I was still kind of miserable playing

1118
01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:28,000
it, just because it is a
VR game, and I get kind of

1119
01:08:28,039 --> 01:08:30,960
queasy and sick. And my room
wasn't like quite big enough for it's like

1120
01:08:30,239 --> 01:08:34,119
barely big enough, which isn't really
big enough, but I think it is

1121
01:08:34,199 --> 01:08:38,119
still. So it's you as to
make what's the best VR game? It's

1122
01:08:38,119 --> 01:08:42,680
so obviously either this or Astro,
and like there's some other things in between.

1123
01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:46,399
But man, there's a lot going
on with Half Life Alex. It's

1124
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:49,960
it's commendable that they really wet for
it that hard on a VR game.

1125
01:08:50,039 --> 01:08:53,920
Of course they were a bit you
know, they hadn't sent them because they

1126
01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:57,119
were selling VR headsets, so they
had to make a killer app. I

1127
01:08:57,199 --> 01:09:00,600
also just like Half Life a lot. Halfway two is one of my favorite

1128
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:04,279
games ever, so at least in
some way getting a new Halfway game not

1129
01:09:04,319 --> 01:09:06,920
in some way it's like really just
getting a new half of like game that

1130
01:09:08,079 --> 01:09:12,239
was fantastic. Yeah, I didn't. I played out Alex up until the

1131
01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:15,199
dingy underground parts. Then I got
too spooked and then I never went back

1132
01:09:15,199 --> 01:09:17,960
to it, and I want to, especially now with the Quest three and

1133
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:21,399
then Networks so well wirelessly, I'm
like, I should just play that game

1134
01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:25,680
again. I'll find some time for
it. And I know everyone loves that

1135
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:29,279
game, so what I played of
it was amazing. So and I'm not

1136
01:09:29,319 --> 01:09:30,800
too surprised to hear that you you
put it on the list. I think

1137
01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:38,000
probably the last one for me is
Clubhouse Games fifty one Worldwide classics. Clubhouse

1138
01:09:38,079 --> 01:09:43,640
Games is one I really loved on
DS and it was one Okay, you

1139
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:45,279
can just could do your little thing, but you always do whenever her game

1140
01:09:45,319 --> 01:09:51,000
comes up that you're like, it'stop
for me. When it doesn't register on

1141
01:09:51,039 --> 01:09:58,680
the backlar important scale get to you. I love Clubhouse Games on the DS.

1142
01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,079
I dought Clubhouse Games on on Switch
was really neat. They did a

1143
01:10:01,159 --> 01:10:08,680
great job of making these games feel
so tactile and shiny, and all the

1144
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,279
pieces like like look really expensive,
and it just feels really nice, like

1145
01:10:12,359 --> 01:10:15,039
to actually play the games. It
was the kind of game where you know,

1146
01:10:15,079 --> 01:10:17,399
I could bring the switch into bed
and me and Steph would play the

1147
01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:20,439
Yatzi Clone in there every night before
bed, and that was really fun.

1148
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,479
Yeah. I don't know. I
think they just nailed it. It's not

1149
01:10:26,039 --> 01:10:29,880
maybe quite as fun as as the
DS one that has all the like the

1150
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,199
touch screen games, the stylists that
worked that way. There are touch screen

1151
01:10:32,239 --> 01:10:34,239
games in this, I think,
but it's like it wasn't quite the same,

1152
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:39,439
but the overall presentation was so incredibly
done. I just I really love

1153
01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:42,960
Clubs Games. Jeff. I'm sorry
that I had to unleash them a naughty

1154
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:46,680
judgments soon. Listen, I knew
it was coming. I knew it would

1155
01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:49,439
come, but it still hurts.
It does. Here's the thing, because

1156
01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:51,239
I thought you're gonna say something else, and I have a game that I

1157
01:10:51,279 --> 01:10:56,279
think you're going you would, you
would myself sure higher than clubus Games.

1158
01:10:56,319 --> 01:10:59,640
And that's Astro's play Room. Oh
sure, yes, Astro's Playroom. Definitely

1159
01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:02,600
that is. It's funny because it's
like the cute little packet thing to show

1160
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:05,479
you, like what the what your
PS five is like. It's still maybe

1161
01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:10,920
the best PS five game. Honestly, it's probably still my favorite. Yeah,

1162
01:11:11,279 --> 01:11:15,239
it still feels so good to play. And look it's Member Barry's but

1163
01:11:15,319 --> 01:11:17,000
I love all the cameos and they
go deep with it, right like you

1164
01:11:17,119 --> 01:11:21,199
do have jumping flash in there is
not just Kratos and a Treas, it's

1165
01:11:21,279 --> 01:11:26,600
all these things. It still does
the most with showing why the Polication five

1166
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:30,119
dual Sense controller is cool and almost
a disappointing way because it's never quite as

1167
01:11:30,199 --> 01:11:32,960
good as it is in other games
as it is in this. And of

1168
01:11:33,039 --> 01:11:36,279
course we had so much fun with
the speedrunt challenges. It was fantastic.

1169
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:40,359
Yeah, I mean god, It's
a game I played, you know,

1170
01:11:40,399 --> 01:11:45,399
before I beat it. Years later
I put eighty ninety hours into it speed

1171
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:47,920
running it, and it ruled.
It was so much fun to get into

1172
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:51,479
that. And huge part of that
is it's just it's it doesn't try to

1173
01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:56,359
do a lot. The things it
does in terms of movement and mechanics are

1174
01:11:57,039 --> 01:12:00,880
very simple, but they're very well
done. It feel really good. You

1175
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:02,880
understand what's gonna happen every time you
hit the jump and you do the laser

1176
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:08,359
double jump and everything, and then
everything around that surrounding it with like you

1177
01:12:08,359 --> 01:12:11,399
said, having the living museum that
you're walking through at all times, or

1178
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:15,000
just like, all right, we're
gonna go through a GPU stage and there's

1179
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,479
gonna be this amazing song about how
the GPU like makes your games work and

1180
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:23,159
all that stuff. It's so cute
and well done and like feels like people

1181
01:12:23,199 --> 01:12:26,720
that yeah, it's it's joyful and
they nailed it so and uh, you

1182
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,399
know, that's a game that the
kids go back to pretty frequently still and

1183
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:30,439
everyone in a while just hear that
GPU song and be like, oh,

1184
01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:34,840
that's so nice. So yeah,
I love Astros play Room. Is uh,

1185
01:12:35,119 --> 01:12:39,319
is there one we could we want
to bring up that's conspicuous in its

1186
01:12:39,399 --> 01:12:43,600
absence. Well, I mean probably, but I can't think of anything else.

1187
01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:46,199
Uh okay, wait, unless you're
trying to make a reference to a

1188
01:12:46,279 --> 01:12:50,079
game that we're not gonna put it
on here, I don't know, you

1189
01:12:50,159 --> 01:12:54,960
know, bus I played eight hours
of it and I thought it was like,

1190
01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:58,359
I think it's a game that has
some cool mechanics. Actually, but

1191
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,319
I just I stopped playing it.
I stopped having fun. Yeah. I

1192
01:13:01,399 --> 01:13:04,560
played ten hours of Last of Us
Part two and I liked the first one

1193
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:10,119
even and then yeah, ten hours
into it, I just felt like oppressed.

1194
01:13:10,199 --> 01:13:12,319
I was just like, gosh,
right, and I think I said

1195
01:13:12,359 --> 01:13:15,159
it before, I've had enough of
these miserable people with these in their miserable

1196
01:13:15,239 --> 01:13:19,319
problems. I related, that's right, And then I do a maternal.

1197
01:13:19,359 --> 01:13:23,199
A lot of people mentioning that we'll
get to the podcast producers here in a

1198
01:13:23,239 --> 01:13:28,600
second. I do Maternal is one
where it's like I played Doune twenty sixteen,

1199
01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:30,319
loved it so much, and I
was like waiting for doing Maternal,

1200
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,600
and then the reviews were like just
like on the edge that I'm like,

1201
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:35,840
I'll get around to that, and
then I never did. It's one I

1202
01:13:36,039 --> 01:13:39,680
really want to go back and play, but I just never have. There's

1203
01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:42,039
some other ones at chat I see. I bet our podcast producers are going

1204
01:13:42,119 --> 01:13:43,760
to bring them up. If not, we will, But yeah, there's

1205
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:45,880
a there's a few where don't we
check out? What this question? All

1206
01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:47,479
right? Yeah, give me a
second to get that, like perfectly so,

1207
01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:49,399
No, it looks like it's mostly
set up. There we go?

1208
01:13:50,399 --> 01:13:55,439
Is this? This is from the
ten Dogs podcast? Threads right there and

1209
01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,399
then I click on this. There
we go? All right? Dann Fiasco

1210
01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:01,720
says Haites, which, yeah,
that's already on the list for obvious reasons.

1211
01:14:02,239 --> 01:14:06,119
Ben Seven says Genschin Impact. Have
you ever even played Genschin Impact.

1212
01:14:06,199 --> 01:14:10,359
I played a little bit of Genschen
Impact. I like both got it and

1213
01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:13,600
kind of didn't get it, if
that makes any sense. Yeah, Tommy

1214
01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:16,159
Pencil says Crusader King's three. This
is one I definitely tried to understand.

1215
01:14:17,239 --> 01:14:20,039
H I played. I played a
bunch of this, and it's like,

1216
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:25,359
I feel like I played enough to
like understand it, but I didn't play

1217
01:14:25,399 --> 01:14:31,319
enough of it to know why people
love it so much. Yeah, it's

1218
01:14:31,359 --> 01:14:34,640
clearly a lot there. I knows
deep and I usually pride myself on somebody

1219
01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:40,279
being able to jump into any genre, and this was still a bit beyond

1220
01:14:40,399 --> 01:14:43,239
me. I had to say I
couldn't at least, I wasn't able to

1221
01:14:43,279 --> 01:14:46,560
stickle stickle with it long enough to
find the fun. Right. I could

1222
01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:51,720
see it was there, I could
since its presence is the storytelling, right,

1223
01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:54,760
the emergence storytelling. I was,
I was starting to get some of

1224
01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:57,319
that. It's just like, I
think maybe I need to play it on

1225
01:14:57,399 --> 01:15:01,760
stream or something. Uh bubbs e
g says or in the will of the

1226
01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:06,359
wisps. Absolutely, Hospital says spirit
Fair that's when you played right. Spirit

1227
01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:11,079
Fair is a cute game. That
is a good I didn't beat or anything,

1228
01:15:11,079 --> 01:15:15,119
but I did enjoy for a bit, very nice artwork. Look,

1229
01:15:15,319 --> 01:15:17,119
it is a cozy game, but
it's a it's a good cozy game.

1230
01:15:17,239 --> 01:15:19,399
It's good. Yeah, but it's
my dead animals, right, so that

1231
01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:23,239
makes it bad? Yeah? Yeah, it's back on your good edge of

1232
01:15:23,239 --> 01:15:27,960
Lord's side. Yeah. I like
that they're all fucking dead. Uh screaming

1233
01:15:28,079 --> 01:15:31,039
Madden says, I know I can't
parse this mic. What is happening here?

1234
01:15:31,199 --> 01:15:33,520
I don't know. There's me and
you was this when we were doing

1235
01:15:33,560 --> 01:15:36,199
our rby stick. That can't possibly
be. That had to be a little

1236
01:15:36,239 --> 01:15:40,399
bit later. I feel like,
yeah, well maybe not because like gosh

1237
01:15:41,199 --> 01:15:43,880
dang it, because when the podcast
started popping off, it was when we

1238
01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:46,000
were talking about like Xbox Series S
because you had to hit it behind you.

1239
01:15:46,119 --> 01:15:50,199
Man. I was definitely still I
was definitely still in Uh. Columbus

1240
01:15:50,359 --> 01:15:57,119
was a crusader. See a picture
of Madden served delicious served delicious three.

1241
01:15:57,239 --> 01:15:59,960
Yes, that makes sense. There
we go, Okay, well you may

1242
01:16:00,119 --> 01:16:02,960
that game up. No, that's
our real thing. Okay, sounds nice.

1243
01:16:03,159 --> 01:16:10,319
I offer dis naked. That's good, more naked in the next one.

1244
01:16:10,399 --> 01:16:13,479
Somehow She's like, well she's still
the same amount of naked, but

1245
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:15,399
she thrusts it forward there. Yeah, it's a new pose. I like

1246
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:18,520
that. Yeah, she puts it
in your face. Yes, hades of

1247
01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:24,039
course, Jill and neck. There
it is. Uh. Nick Turbo says,

1248
01:16:24,079 --> 01:16:27,279
Yakuza like a dragon. It's a
very good game and one that I

1249
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:30,399
wish I like, I only fell
off of it, not because I wasn't

1250
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,720
enjoying the games because other things happened
and I wish I did it. Yeah,

1251
01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:34,600
I bet I could go back to
it. And enjoy it even more

1252
01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:39,079
now that I played so much like
a dragon Infinite Wealth. I did play

1253
01:16:39,119 --> 01:16:42,279
some like a Dragon. I do
remember the like trying to find the like

1254
01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:45,399
a phantom pisser or whatever you like, to find the guy that was actually

1255
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:47,000
Peen, and I really liked that
quest and that made me want to play

1256
01:16:47,039 --> 01:16:51,239
more of the game. Uh Freedom. Mcleberty ball says, a Doom eternal

1257
01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:56,079
anime is temporary. Doom is eternal. Yes, I was talking about this

1258
01:16:56,399 --> 01:16:58,640
earlier my show. I don't know
why this one didn't hit from me like

1259
01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:01,479
the previous Doom did. And I
know most people have a problem with the

1260
01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:05,159
first person platforming. I don't.
I like first person platforming. I don't

1261
01:17:05,199 --> 01:17:09,119
know if it was the long levels
or what. And it's a good game

1262
01:17:09,159 --> 01:17:13,359
and I like it, but it
didn't wow me. I love doing twenty

1263
01:17:13,399 --> 01:17:16,479
sixteen, so I need to play
it and decide for myself. Cass buckeros

1264
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:24,640
is thirteen Sentinels. Agus m joy
Z says this is Kentucky Root zero Kentucky

1265
01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,279
Road zero. Right to Get the
last episode came out this year, right,

1266
01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:30,640
Yeah, so we finally had the
full collection. Sure, we played

1267
01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:33,319
this in the game as a game
club. It was not really my thing.

1268
01:17:33,399 --> 01:17:35,800
I'll tell you what, you want
to make Dan play a game that

1269
01:17:35,880 --> 01:17:40,239
will be torturous to him, if
somehow you could force him to play Kentucky

1270
01:17:40,359 --> 01:17:43,000
Root zero, feel like you wouldn't
be able to actually force him to do

1271
01:17:43,119 --> 01:17:45,079
it. Yeah, I think there's
no I think you just wouldn't. Yeah,

1272
01:17:45,079 --> 01:17:48,560
I think he just wouldn't. Doctor
Ryan says The Last of Us Part

1273
01:17:48,640 --> 01:17:53,720
two. There it is h there's
that game. There's Ellie. I remember

1274
01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:56,840
I thought this was the this was
the Boxer. People were still shocked that

1275
01:17:57,079 --> 01:18:01,800
like characterism. Ye uh do you
know? Revenge is bad? Mike uh

1276
01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:08,079
Low Rules says China Fantasy seven remake. It's so good. Absolutely, it

1277
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:14,119
is the Buster Sword the coolest video
game weapon. I mean the key blade.

1278
01:18:15,199 --> 01:18:16,840
I'm I think I am partial to
the fucking gun sword that what's the

1279
01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:20,079
same has a squall has? Yeah? Yeah, they were on a pretty

1280
01:18:20,079 --> 01:18:23,119
good role there for a while.
We went some cool weapons. I do

1281
01:18:23,279 --> 01:18:26,960
think the Buster sword rules. Yes, I don't know what this is.

1282
01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:31,119
That's uh that come on the Three
Sentinels again? That that that lady has

1283
01:18:31,119 --> 01:18:34,359
a medic played this game? Well, it just looks so Vanilla Warish,

1284
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:39,680
I guess so when I see the
movement. Yes, uh Fhlobatron says Ghost

1285
01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:43,159
of Sushima played a little haven't brought
up yet? Huh? Yes, I

1286
01:18:43,199 --> 01:18:45,439
played that. Yes, I played
a little bit of this game. Uh.

1287
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,239
My plan is when it launches on
PC, I'm hopping on. I'm

1288
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:53,159
jumping on this game and playing it
for real. This time, I played

1289
01:18:53,199 --> 01:18:55,319
through all of it. I liked
it quite a lot. It didn't like

1290
01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,960
Super Stick with me in any big
way, but I had a lot of

1291
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:03,279
fun while I was playing it.
Jamie h says Highral Warriors Age of Calamity.

1292
01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:05,800
I was like, I know people
like this game. I was wondering

1293
01:19:05,800 --> 01:19:09,720
if anyone would mention it for Game
of the Y or like their favorite game

1294
01:19:09,760 --> 01:19:12,399
of twenty twenty. I know people
like that. As from a lot of

1295
01:19:12,399 --> 01:19:15,039
people think it's not as good as
the first Hyral Warriors, sure, because

1296
01:19:15,199 --> 01:19:17,199
it's like more focused. I think, what what do you want from a

1297
01:19:17,239 --> 01:19:20,520
Warriors game that's based on Zelda.
It's like, hey, everything's in there,

1298
01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:23,359
that's what it's fun about. The
the other ones like, yeah,

1299
01:19:23,399 --> 01:19:28,199
here's like Tunelink and you yeah,
and the fucking skullcare or whatever. Like

1300
01:19:28,239 --> 01:19:31,039
everybody, everyone's here, and now
it's like it has to be an actual

1301
01:19:31,119 --> 01:19:35,279
prequel to a real Zelda game,
and it kind of felt less for that.

1302
01:19:36,359 --> 01:19:41,479
Willow Davis says Animal Crossing New Horizons, which one of my favorite things

1303
01:19:41,479 --> 01:19:44,760
about New Horizons or any Animal Crossing
game is just seeing other people's stuff,

1304
01:19:45,119 --> 01:19:49,720
just seeing people's characters having their fun, and it is so nice. Elie

1305
01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:57,960
Mera Servesa Crystal says Graham Blue Fantasy
Versus. Yes, yeah, versus.

1306
01:19:58,399 --> 01:20:04,920
This is like the most three fighter
two game ever created by artist's so good

1307
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:09,720
and he was so unlucky. Did
the pandemic killed it? And he had

1308
01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:15,239
a bandko Yes when game came out, shut down happened. It was so

1309
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:19,279
unfortunate. That's what Ali Miracle has
in Here is a meme about how Side

1310
01:20:19,319 --> 01:20:24,239
Games released it during the pandemic with
bad with no rollback, and then later

1311
01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:29,159
updated with rollback after the pandemic.
So yeah, killing the game. Mister

1312
01:20:29,239 --> 01:20:31,600
Buller says, Bug Snacks a game
that I think is interesting. I never

1313
01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:34,239
played a ton of it. I
tried it was it didn't hit for me.

1314
01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:39,239
Yeah. I reviewed this game,
I played through all of it.

1315
01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:41,600
I think I give a through Off
five. I liked it, but I

1316
01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:45,479
didn't love it. Yeah, always
be closed. This is the other one

1317
01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:48,800
we didn't mention, Cyberpunk twenty seventy
seven. I know, I know,

1318
01:20:49,319 --> 01:20:54,000
God, I know you love this
game. I didn't like this game playing

1319
01:20:54,039 --> 01:20:57,319
it like last year or whatever when
it was supposedly good. I can't imagine

1320
01:20:57,319 --> 01:21:00,600
what I would have thought of it
in twenty twenty. Yeah. Uh,

1321
01:21:00,319 --> 01:21:02,840
I think got game is fine.
I don't. I don't like it that

1322
01:21:02,960 --> 01:21:06,039
much though, so it's not gonna

01:23:44,159 --> 01:23:46,039
to be able to make it.
Oh shit. Boomer of the Vault twenty

fulfilled with that. Clubhouse has a really

01:23:55,039 --> 01:24:01,640
good version of Solitaire. Oh my
god. His as Clumbus games. I'm

1364

wanting to waiting to see if this gift

1369
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:26,960
turned into animal crossing, just by
the loves there of that year. T

1370
01:24:27,199 --> 01:24:30,359
money Og says like a dragon lots
like a dragon love by way, I

1371
01:24:30,359 --> 01:24:33,199
think animal crossing got the better end
of that doom animal crossing thing. Yeah,

1372

Morales, which as always, like
these Spider Man games don't get mentioned.

1377
01:24:53,039 --> 01:24:56,800
That excuse me that often in these
lists from from the community, it feels

1378
01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:59,680
like I think everyone likes these games. I don't think anyone really puts it

1379
01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:01,840
a and number one for their year. Yeah, like, I don't know.

1380
01:25:02,319 --> 01:25:04,159
I bet it was in my top
five. I don't know if it

1381
01:25:04,159 --> 01:25:06,079
would have been my number one.
I know it was my number one,

1382
01:25:06,119 --> 01:25:10,319
but yeah, Morales. Morales was
very good as a launch game. I

1383
01:25:10,399 --> 01:25:13,000
know it's cross platform, but I
liked it a lot at having it there.

1384
01:25:13,039 --> 01:25:15,279
For the launches, I've had a
good launch. This is a big

01:31:01,199 --> 01:31:04,680
It sucks. I like a lot
of it feels just my top five maybe

1469
01:31:05,520 --> 01:31:12,319
a hard call over here. I
don't even I don't even think Catholic Fox

1470
01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:15,239
quite makes it. Again, I
just I hate that Doc things are just

1471
01:31:15,359 --> 01:31:18,319
like that being the kind of game
they are. But VR is just only

1472
01:31:19,079 --> 01:31:21,800
Kelly is so much for me because
it just inherently makes me sick. What

1473
01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:25,720
am I supposed to do when a
game inherently makes me sick? How I

1474
01:31:26,079 --> 01:31:29,479
overlook that? I just don't know. I just don't know. It's difficult.

1475
01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:30,520
Well, okay, so wait,
what are you thinking about moving out?

1476
01:31:31,199 --> 01:31:34,039
I think the three I'm really thinking
about, Well, there's four.

1477
01:31:35,159 --> 01:31:38,600
There's four that I think I'm really
thinking about. I think I lean towards

1478
01:31:38,600 --> 01:31:42,479
Street to Rage four personally, streets
Rage four is one of them. Myles

1479
01:31:42,560 --> 01:31:46,520
Browse Tony Hawk wanted two Animal Crossing
off definitely again, like I says,

1480
01:31:46,560 --> 01:31:50,159
for Animal Crossing is such the twenty
twenty game for me in a lot of

1481
01:31:50,199 --> 01:31:55,359
ways. Yeah, and I feel
good about that. But then that's let

1482
01:31:55,399 --> 01:31:58,560
me tell you what. Honestly,
leaving off Tony Hawk and streets Rage is

1483
01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:01,760
really tough for me. Let me
tell you. We could take off off

1484
01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:04,720
of seven remake. Okay, let's
do it. I like it a lot.

1485
01:32:04,840 --> 01:32:06,760
It doesn't need to be on here, it's fine, and we could

1486
01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:13,720
put up Streets of Rage and Animal
Crossing. Cool. I'm okay with that

1487
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:15,640
because it is, you know,
it's remakes. I didn't understand, I

1488
01:32:15,720 --> 01:32:18,479
know, I know, yeah,
yeah, totally, And I like,

1489
01:32:18,600 --> 01:32:20,640
I mean, God, I love
Animal Cross the answers, so those are

1490
01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:23,920
both my picks or no. Streets
Rates was worse, but I would have

1491
01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:28,960
picked it had you not. I
wish you guys could feel the little hard

1492
01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:36,000
attack I just had Royal Well Jesus
remake, of course, But like this

1493
01:32:36,159 --> 01:32:40,359
is you know, this is a
I gotta be considerate here. It's not

1494
01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:45,399
just a feature. Your uh,
okay, all right? So that means

1495
01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:49,119
we are cutting Marvel, spider Man, Miles Morales, Tony Hawk's pro Skater

1496
01:32:49,199 --> 01:32:53,119
one plus two, Thirteen Sentinels,
Ages, Rim, Half Life, Alex,

1497
01:32:53,479 --> 01:32:56,680
Clubhouse Games fifty one, Worldwide Classics, Heart Space, Shipbreaker, Crash,

1498
01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:59,319
Bandicoot, for It's About Time,
Final Fantasy seven remake. I have

1499
01:32:59,399 --> 01:33:01,399
to say goodbye to a bunch of
board games, my cast, Sigabyte,

1500
01:33:01,399 --> 01:33:04,479
to a bunch of naked teens.
We all have to make sacrifices, all

1501
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:09,560
hurting over a year. We're all
hurting. Uh And that means in our

1502
01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:13,079
top five Unordered at the moment,
Orion, The Wild of Whips, Whisps,

1503
01:33:13,119 --> 01:33:15,680
Hades, Astros, play Room,
Streets of Rage, four, Animal

1504
01:33:15,720 --> 01:33:20,880
Crossing, New Horizons. Oh,
I do hate not having Pop remake on

1505
01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:26,800
there, but it's over. It's
over. It's over. Got Ort number

1506
01:33:26,800 --> 01:33:29,000
one last time? Can we play
Hades A number one? I was gonna

1507
01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:33,199
say, I think probably Hades number
one is so freaking good. You're right,

1508
01:33:33,279 --> 01:33:41,720
I Hades is just yeah, Hades
is. It'ssanely high quality. One

1509
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,159
of the most quality games I can
think of. Gosh, yeah, it's

1510
01:33:44,319 --> 01:33:47,760
just it's like kind of the ideal
video game to me at a certain point.

1511
01:33:47,840 --> 01:33:53,680
They just do everything right. I
think about when I play modern games

1512
01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:58,159
today and the first game that comes
to mind, like it would be better

1513
01:33:58,159 --> 01:34:00,600
if they did stuff that it's more
like Hades, you know, if the

1514
01:34:00,680 --> 01:34:03,720
upgrades were more like Hades. If
like I was, if this dash move,

1515
01:34:04,079 --> 01:34:08,159
I could keep upgrading the dash move
so that when I dashed into bullets

1516
01:34:08,199 --> 01:34:11,319
they were bounced back and stuff.
I love that stuff. I love that

1517
01:34:11,399 --> 01:34:15,640
stuff. And it's like Hades nailed
that better than any other game at that

1518
01:34:15,800 --> 01:34:18,399
time and pretty much any other game
since then other than now Hades too.

1519
01:34:18,479 --> 01:34:23,960
Coming out with the technical test,
all right, I'm looking at this.

1520
01:34:24,039 --> 01:34:26,239
I think I'm mostly okay with the
rest of the list as is, what

1521
01:34:26,319 --> 01:34:28,439
do you think, Yeah, actually
think I pretty go with it. As

1522
01:34:28,600 --> 01:34:31,279
is right now, that's uh pretty
right to me. Man, It's interesting.

1523
01:34:31,359 --> 01:34:35,720
We uh, this is an US
list. This is a very sing

1524
01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:40,680
to be upset have left You're right, we left off a lot of the

1525
01:34:40,760 --> 01:34:44,960
triple big triple A gaves that most
people cared about this, and many of

1526
01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:48,199
those aren't even in the short list. Wen't even consider that. Actually,

1527
01:34:48,279 --> 01:34:56,880
what everyone's oh, we're gonna be
in trouble. Oh boys, already right,

1528
01:34:57,159 --> 01:34:59,760
that's just a taste of it.
Oh boy, I've already lost the

1529
01:34:59,800 --> 01:35:05,479
ball. Yeah, in trouble this
time. Yeah. No one's gonna agree

1530
01:35:05,479 --> 01:35:12,199
with us on Streets of Rage far
wrong, absolutely not, but wrong about

1531
01:35:12,279 --> 01:35:15,439
that. That's the new problem,
right, that's we're right, yeah,

1532
01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:19,159
exactly, Okay, it's not our
fault. Streets Rage four is definitely better

1533
01:35:19,359 --> 01:35:23,159
than the last of us part two. I'm sorry, Oh god, oh

1534
01:35:23,279 --> 01:35:27,079
god, yes, all right.
Uh the list one more time. Number

1535
01:35:27,119 --> 01:35:30,479
one hades than or in the well
of the lisps Astros Playroom Streets Rage four

1536
01:35:30,600 --> 01:35:34,079
and rattening out the top five is
Animal Crossing New Horizons. Mike, we

1537
01:35:34,159 --> 01:35:36,560
did good work here, we did. There's a bit of me. It's

1538
01:35:36,600 --> 01:35:41,039
like, why do I let animal
Crossing on there and get rid of remake.

1539
01:35:41,039 --> 01:35:42,960
But it's done. It's done.
It's done, it's done, and

1540
01:35:43,119 --> 01:35:45,399
it looks pretty good. It looks
good to me, So thank you for

1541
01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:48,600
doing that. All Right, we're
gonna take one last break and we'll come

1542
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:57,199
back and talk about what we've been
playing. And we're back, and I

1543
01:35:57,359 --> 01:35:59,600
just decided I'll leave up the list
for a little bitau I did just posted

1544
01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:02,319
to Twitter. Some people come in
here and yell at us. Yeah,

1545
01:36:02,359 --> 01:36:04,920
all right, Mike, what have
you been playing. I've been playing a

1546
01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:10,079
handful of games, but interested to
hear your Mini shoot Adventures maybe. Yeah,

1547
01:36:10,279 --> 01:36:13,399
That's what's been really exciting this week
for me is Mini shoot Adventures.

1548
01:36:13,520 --> 01:36:17,960
This is a It's the easiest pitch, is it? Zelda as a twin

1549
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:24,640
stick shooter, especially the old top
down Zelda's Dan record actually recommended this to

1550
01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:27,439
us. You played first, and
then I jumped on it, and yep,

1551
01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:31,880
this is fan freaking fantastic. This
just feels so good to play.

1552
01:36:31,960 --> 01:36:36,840
It really is like as simple as
that pitch, and yet they find ways

1553
01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:40,960
to make it work wonderfully. It's
very simple, right, This is not

1554
01:36:41,079 --> 01:36:45,720
a game with the dialogue box JPEGs
trying to add some ghost. It's a

1555
01:36:45,239 --> 01:36:49,399
game. It's very due. It's
like zeld it's mostly like Zoto one.

1556
01:36:49,479 --> 01:36:51,800
Really you do just kind of start. In fact, there's like, did

1557
01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:56,279
you see the one screen that is
just the first zouda one screen complete with

1558
01:36:56,359 --> 01:36:59,279
where the cave is and everything.
Like that's awesome. I don't know if

1559
01:36:59,319 --> 01:37:01,199
I did notice that. I did. I thought the first dungeon was like,

1560
01:37:01,319 --> 01:37:04,119
oh my god, this is the
most Zelda one ass dungeon. Yeah.

1561
01:37:04,479 --> 01:37:08,000
Yeah, yeah. So like there
are dungeons and you get upgrades.

1562
01:37:08,279 --> 01:37:11,439
You know, it's a little Metro
Vanu, but it's more Zelda thing.

1563
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:14,720
But there's also like leveling up,
and you level up, you get points.

1564
01:37:14,760 --> 01:37:16,760
You can increase things like your fire
rate, your damage or your fire

1565
01:37:16,880 --> 01:37:20,199
distance and all that stuff. So
you have like the persistent upgrades even just

1566
01:37:20,319 --> 01:37:24,399
like the UI is very good,
like when you level up, these little

1567
01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:28,520
rocks that get put into like your
jar, and that's really satisfying to see.

1568
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:33,199
Like the sound design very good.
The whole thing is just an incredible

1569
01:37:33,279 --> 01:37:36,800
delight. I don't know. There's
a whole lot of people talk about this

1570
01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:41,119
game right now. It came out
this month. I think it should definitely

1571
01:37:41,199 --> 01:37:45,279
hasn't done positive on sweat Steam.
I think I think people that are playing

1572
01:37:45,359 --> 01:37:46,640
it are getting it, and it's
only on Steam right now. Again,

1573
01:37:46,680 --> 01:37:49,520
there is a demo. I think
progress carries over, so I think you

1574
01:37:49,560 --> 01:37:53,199
should do yourself favorite check it out. I understand it works very well on

1575
01:37:53,319 --> 01:37:57,920
your Steam deck and probably other portable
devices. It is the kind of thing

1576
01:37:58,039 --> 01:38:00,359
where I'm playing it, it's like
it's doing all those simple things, but

1577
01:38:00,399 --> 01:38:03,319
it's doing them so well, and
all those simple things are the kinds of

1578
01:38:03,399 --> 01:38:06,960
game styles that tickle my brain,
like, yeah, the Zelda great,

1579
01:38:08,039 --> 01:38:10,640
that's the kind of exploration and the
fact that they do just get into it,

1580
01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:13,279
don't have a ton of text that
works for me fantastic. But then

1581
01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:15,680
like the combat is, yeah,
it's dualstick shooter, but it's not like

1582
01:38:16,880 --> 01:38:20,319
I suppose it is like Robotron or
Geometories, but it feels very bullet hellish,

1583
01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:25,720
and that is like, ooh,
that's a cool feeling to be like,

1584
01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:29,039
all right, that's the combat.
And now I like bullet hells,

1585
01:38:29,359 --> 01:38:31,640
but I don't like playing through a
whole bullet hell schmuck. These days,

1586
01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:36,720
I'm mostly like I need something else
and going to be really stressful because they

1587
01:38:36,800 --> 01:38:40,319
like you know, have things like
big game overs and you're kind of bright

1588
01:38:40,319 --> 01:38:43,039
things over a lot here, like
the bullethill segments. You know, if

1589
01:38:43,079 --> 01:38:45,119
you fail it, you go back
a little bee start over, and a

1590
01:38:45,199 --> 01:38:46,880
lot of times it's like the big
set piece of mom It's like boss fights,

1591
01:38:47,279 --> 01:38:49,600
right, but it's like I'm getting
into it. I'm like in the

1592
01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:54,279
zone and I'm like doing the like
the finesse movements through all the bullets,

1593
01:38:54,319 --> 01:38:56,840
and I'm like, oh, I'm
nailing this. This is great. And

1594
01:38:56,960 --> 01:38:59,840
it's because it is in like bite
sized chunks. It's not the whole thing,

1595
01:39:00,199 --> 01:39:02,039
so I can like save up that
the reserve of all of the parts

1596
01:39:02,079 --> 01:39:05,199
of my brains it takes to actually
accomplish those things and come at it and

1597
01:39:05,279 --> 01:39:09,479
tackle them, and it just makes
you feel so cool. And then you

1598
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:12,960
get then you geld to go explore
this world and your unlucky new abilities and

1599
01:39:13,039 --> 01:39:15,159
your little ship can do cool things
it couldn't do before. And that's that,

1600
01:39:15,359 --> 01:39:18,279
Like, you know, the Metro
Advanue style stuff really nails it.

1601
01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:21,960
I love that you just are as
sentient spaceship or whatever. You're not a

1602
01:39:23,079 --> 01:39:27,239
person controlling as ship. You are
as ship. Yep, it's uh And

1603
01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:30,840
I got the upgrade of like all
the little crystals you get going into that

1604
01:39:31,119 --> 01:39:34,359
that bigger crystal and like filling it
up and like the piling up inside there,

1605
01:39:34,520 --> 01:39:38,720
Like that looks so great. Everything. It just is a really well

1606
01:39:38,800 --> 01:39:43,159
polished take on all these ideas that
I'm just I continue to be blown away

1607
01:39:43,199 --> 01:39:45,319
by it. And I started playing
it. I just couldn't put it down

1608
01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:47,319
last night. I've played a ton
more of it. Yes, many shoot

1609
01:39:47,319 --> 01:39:50,319
adventures. Everybody is the name of
that one? Uh? Yep? I

1610
01:39:50,359 --> 01:39:53,920
think it's fifteen dollars on Steam.
It's around there. Yeah. Yeah.

1611
01:39:54,079 --> 01:39:57,880
So for my favorite comment on Twitter
after you posted our top five from twenty

1612
01:39:57,960 --> 01:40:00,840
twenty was the one that says,
I didn't even know Streets of Reach four

1613
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:05,039
existed. Law. That's pretty good. Actually, there's lot of people are

1614
01:40:05,119 --> 01:40:08,680
very happy we put it on there. Yes, I'm glad to see that.

1615
01:40:08,880 --> 01:40:12,680
That's nice. And the Tokyo Game
Life says, why waste your money

1616
01:40:12,720 --> 01:40:17,079
in five games when you could get
fifty games? Very good pay, very

1617
01:40:17,119 --> 01:40:21,720
good? All right? Uh I
I did uh? I played that Tales

1618
01:40:21,800 --> 01:40:25,199
of Canzera zo I talked a little
bit about did I talk about that on

1619
01:40:26,319 --> 01:40:28,760
on the Less Than ten Dogs.
I can't remember the way. I feel

1620
01:40:28,760 --> 01:40:31,000
like you've talked about it somewhere.
I've talked about it a bunch, but

1621
01:40:31,119 --> 01:40:34,800
yes, exactly, it's like it's
it's it's worth checking out if you think

1622
01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:38,800
that the story looks good and the
characters look cool, because that stuff does

1623
01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:43,159
work. But then other than that, I'm like kind of like looking around

1624
01:40:43,199 --> 01:40:46,760
for the next game. Any Shoot
Adventures definitely has overtaken me a lot,

1625
01:40:46,880 --> 01:40:51,359
right, and I'm glad it has, but I'm like going back to expeditions.

1626
01:40:51,399 --> 01:40:55,319
I started another Crabs Treasure today.
I played that on stream a little

1627
01:40:55,359 --> 01:40:58,920
bit. I my system was like
being really weird, so I'm like,

1628
01:40:58,960 --> 01:41:01,720
I couldn't tell if it was the
game sort of lagging and chugging because it's

1629
01:41:01,760 --> 01:41:04,880
the game isn't optimized, or because
my system was breaking. I'm going to

1630
01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:06,960
chalk it up to my system.
At this point, I want to go

1631
01:41:08,039 --> 01:41:10,359
back to that and like play it
for real and see how it feels.

1632
01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:14,159
But as I was playing it on
stream, it's like, yeah, I

1633
01:41:14,239 --> 01:41:18,439
think I'm getting this, But the
Dark Soul's side of everything, the Soul's

1634
01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:23,119
like aspects, I'm like Okay,
can I be Dodd rolling out of the

1635
01:41:23,119 --> 01:41:25,439
way of these attacks? And it's
like some of them felt like I really

1636
01:41:25,439 --> 01:41:27,399
couldn't, So I'm gonna have to
like figure out how those work, I

1637
01:41:27,479 --> 01:41:30,560
figure out the rules of the world
a little bit more. But you know,

1638
01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:32,439
the Perry system does feel pretty good
and I like that. And then

1639
01:41:32,439 --> 01:41:34,600
I played a little bit more Stellar
Blade as well, and the Perry system

1640
01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:38,399
and there feels really good. I'm
like decigning which pary system am I going

1641
01:41:38,439 --> 01:41:40,920
to go with. I think I
am probably leaning towards Stellar Blade though at

1642
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:44,640
the moment. Beyond that, though, Yeah, it's been a lot of

1643
01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:46,279
mini shoot adventures and fall Out New
Vegas. I started a run of that

1644
01:41:46,840 --> 01:41:51,000
that's been That's actually been really good. I am really liking that game quite

1645
01:41:51,039 --> 01:41:55,319
a lot. I'm like three four
hours in and I'm already like, feel

1646
01:41:55,359 --> 01:41:57,800
the hooks in me. I want
to be playing it all the time,

1647
01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:00,760
but I'm playing it on stream for
Giant Bomb, so I'm like, well,

1648
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:01,960
to find more time on the site
so I can make that happen more

1649
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:05,800
frequently. That's really working for me. Uh, that probably does it for

1650
01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:09,439
me, though, Mike, anything
else you've been playing, no I mean,

1651
01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:11,720
you know, more than a corn
overlord, but not have anything new

1652
01:42:11,800 --> 01:42:15,239
to say, just still really enjoying
it and I'm excited to play more.

1653
01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:18,800
Yep, all right, I think
we should wrap this show up. More

1654
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:21,279
super chests. Oh yes, let's
hit those and then we'll hit the music.

1655
01:42:21,359 --> 01:42:25,840
Mike, what are the super chests? Chris Quinton says, Manati's apple

1656
01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:29,520
orcher? How do you even say
that word? I don't deal with orchards

1657
01:42:29,640 --> 01:42:34,479
very often? Or orchard? I
thought he was right. He's he's talking

1658
01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:38,520
about it like an apple orchard.
He hates apple so much he's never even

1659
01:42:38,560 --> 01:42:44,520
considered an orchard. Manate's Apple orchards
CEO Mike Manatti and the man who's in

1660
01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:47,279
for a blighting but can't survive it
because he's viewed by prime Jeff Grubb?

1661
01:42:47,720 --> 01:42:50,359
Is there a game mess Jeopardy this
month? I love you guys either way,

1662
01:42:50,439 --> 01:42:53,000
keep it up? Yeah? Are
we gonna do one this month?

1663
01:42:53,399 --> 01:42:57,880
The plan is next Friday, because
I've been busy reviewing stuff. Okay,

1664
01:42:58,760 --> 01:43:02,000
making it Friday? T Bucket twenty
three sins Can we get Mike to personate

1665
01:43:02,159 --> 01:43:06,680
Jeff after Jeff Frey? Mike helping
Dan out of Super Dan sixty four got

1666
01:43:06,720 --> 01:43:13,039
sure or something like, uh it
was? It was, certainly it's McNaughty

1667
01:43:13,079 --> 01:43:18,600
and I'm going home, damn record
game. I feel like if I try

1668
01:43:18,640 --> 01:43:21,680
to do a shooting personation of you, it would be more offensive somehow,

1669
01:43:21,800 --> 01:43:26,520
I think i'd agree. Yes,
sounds like I got into the characterisation.

1670
01:43:27,520 --> 01:43:32,319
Yeah, yeah, the broad Way
to describe my voices. I don't know

1671
01:43:32,319 --> 01:43:42,000
if Italian it is one of the
really uh look Disney Plus. I got

1672
01:43:42,039 --> 01:43:45,319
a Disney Plus and just like in
the Home Country, uh, the old

1673
01:43:45,359 --> 01:43:49,159
country Jacob Benches Sean please yelled them
about Person of five Royal Oh he did,

1674
01:43:49,279 --> 01:43:51,960
don't worry. I hate you both, he did, Don't worry.

1675
01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:58,680
I always think it's royals. I
don't know, not royal fault injury.

1676
01:44:00,920 --> 01:44:03,680
Well, I'm hitting the button like
Manati, Where can people find you on

1677
01:44:03,720 --> 01:44:10,600
the internet? Twitch at Tolkoto.
Been having fun streaming there a bunch,

1678
01:44:11,119 --> 01:44:13,720
but streaming that many shoot adventures.
It was a good time. Yeah,

1679
01:44:13,720 --> 01:44:15,520
I enjoyed that stream. That was
great. Thank you. It's definitely want

1680
01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:18,399
to do some more old games again
soon. I think some GameCube stuff.

1681
01:44:19,319 --> 01:44:23,000
Plenty of things to get to.
Gotta do some quack shot here soon.

1682
01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:26,279
I'm gonna I'm gonna give mythologies at
least one more good stream. I think

1683
01:44:26,279 --> 01:44:28,399
I'm a little over it. I
gotta be honest. We'll see, we'll

1684
01:44:28,399 --> 01:44:30,439
see how I feel the next time. I think. I mean, you

1685
01:44:30,680 --> 01:44:31,880
said you were doing one more,
right, have you done that at least

1686
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:34,520
one more? And I haven't done
it yet? Okay, Well, and

1687
01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:36,840
then when you're if you're done,
you're you're done. You've done your bid

1688
01:44:36,920 --> 01:44:41,520
for king and country whatever Shatner says
in that movie. Yeah, yeah,

1689
01:44:41,560 --> 01:44:43,199
something with that. So we'll see, we'll see. How about you,

1690
01:44:43,239 --> 01:44:46,520
Jeff, what's going on? I
don't know. Lots of stuff. Check

1691
01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:49,319
out Giant bum. We've been doing
a ton of things over there this week.

1692
01:44:50,199 --> 01:44:54,359
Got some new art I'm excited about. Yeah, over there that Jerem

1693
01:44:54,399 --> 01:44:57,520
did a really good job with.
So our streams look a little prettier,

1694
01:44:57,600 --> 01:45:02,199
I think in my opinion. Yeah, and so uh got Tomorrow we'll be

1695
01:45:02,319 --> 01:45:10,279
doing a upf Fallout seventy six still
seems to be the plan there, and

1696
01:45:10,399 --> 01:45:14,399
then bcr we're gonna do a review
cast for Stellar Blade actually, and that'll

1697
01:45:14,399 --> 01:45:16,880
be a good time. But then
I don't know. I am ready to

1698
01:45:17,159 --> 01:45:20,640
like do some stuff around the house
and kind of lay about this weekend.

1699
01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:24,800
It's last weekend to hand with this
stuff I was doing. I need to

1700
01:45:25,880 --> 01:45:28,760
done the house last weekend. It
did improve my mood the whole week,

1701
01:45:28,880 --> 01:45:30,960
just walking around looking at this like
being my bedmak wow, this room's clean.

1702
01:45:31,079 --> 01:45:34,399
I felt way better. I cleaned
the kids, I helped the kids

1703
01:45:34,439 --> 01:45:40,279
clean their rooms, and I did
some other stuff and I pipe, oh

1704
01:45:40,359 --> 01:45:43,560
yeah, fucking Christy, and I
didn't get to do anything in my areas.

1705
01:45:43,640 --> 01:45:45,560
And I've been kind of miserable this
week because it's a disaster in here.

1706
01:45:45,640 --> 01:45:48,199
Like I like, got a new
table and so the old tables sitting

1707
01:45:48,239 --> 01:45:50,680
out there on side. I think, there's so mu shit I just want

1708
01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:53,399
to do. So that's what I'm
doing this week, and I'm gonna clean

1709
01:45:53,479 --> 01:45:56,800
this hole zone up and feel better
about myself. So I'm looking forward to

tools and ship Mammalian pride. He's cooler.

1718
01:47:00,560 --> 01:47:03,600
All right, we're done. This
is a break. I'm ready.

1719

1727
01:47:44,119 --> 01:47:48,720
All in sync hotline. Huh.
I should do a thing where we

1728
01:47:48,840 --> 01:47:59,720
have to play every game in the
Infogram song Genius Idea, thank you,

1729
01:47:59,800 --> 01:48:03,760
I I thought so, yes,
yeah, okay, when we play this,

1730
01:48:05,720 --> 01:48:08,760
all right, I'm just gonna go
to three thirty in the video I

1731
01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:12,520
have and you wan to wait for
Mike to be back. I think I

1732
01:48:12,880 --> 01:48:18,800
probably be better probably m fuck crams. Oh my god, it's in my

1733
01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:34,279
head. Now get out the doesse
God damn those very good. I was

1734
01:48:34,319 --> 01:48:36,560
waiting for a moment to play that
during the stream to next it's like,

1735
01:48:36,640 --> 01:48:43,359
that's the We have very few that
aren't Mike screaming about something that he's gonna

1736
01:48:45,239 --> 01:48:50,039
fluid or pornographers, yeah, exactly, or beating it. Most of them

1737
01:48:50,159 --> 01:48:55,520
are about beating it, and so
it's I had a couple and that the

1738
01:48:56,600 --> 01:48:59,000
skill issue is one of them.
That one worked that was very fun.

1739
01:48:59,039 --> 01:49:03,239
We're coming, Oh you beat it? Like this is so violent. This

1740
01:49:03,359 --> 01:49:09,479
one you come, you come up
with people. Yes, I was thinking

1741
01:49:09,520 --> 01:49:16,279
about doing that one. Oh you
beat it. I beat it. I'm

1742
01:49:16,319 --> 01:49:27,399
so proud of him. So most
people are beating it right now. This

1743
01:49:28,279 --> 01:49:32,399
should be the podcasts this. Yeah, rename all these to start with beats,

1744
01:49:32,439 --> 01:49:35,159
so we can have the beat zone
all in one place, so you

1745
01:49:35,359 --> 01:49:39,520
just like quickly hit one after the
other. That sounds like a little work.

1746
01:49:40,319 --> 01:49:45,960
Yeah, well then you know,
listen, I don't I upload them

1747
01:49:45,960 --> 01:49:49,199
in the first place, I'll just
re upload them. Yeah, oh,

1748
01:49:49,279 --> 01:49:54,560
you have to re upload them you
can't reorganize them. I'll just favor them.

1749
01:49:55,560 --> 01:50:12,800
Yeah, oh yeah, the Xander
mobis Cameo. Couldn't know. That's

1750
01:50:12,840 --> 01:50:26,159
cool. Enjoy your gaming. Wait, yell about himself? You know as

1751
01:50:26,199 --> 01:50:31,239
he does. It is a stupid
ass on whoa, whoa, Mike talk

1752
01:50:31,279 --> 01:50:36,640
about yourself that way. I don't
remember saying that. Okay, all right,

1753
01:50:38,640 --> 01:50:45,119
serenadeum, serenade mikey all right,

1755
01:50:50,000 --> 01:50:53,439
Than? Uh? That is that
