I'm your host, jan Oh Shoa joining me co captain

00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,880
of the ship, joining me as always. He's riding the

5
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:45,039

tries to get us on task, and we all kind

10
00:00:53,359 --> 00:00:55,320
of like just we goof off, but we also just

11
00:00:55,359 --> 00:00:57,600
like talking to each other. We're like, Channe'll tell us

12
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,000
when it's time to go, and when he has to

13
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:01,320
actually tell us it's time. Ago, you could tell he's like,

14
00:01:01,439 --> 00:01:03,320
I don't want to be the buzzkill guys, but we

15
00:01:03,479 --> 00:01:06,040
need to start the show, and he it's hard for him.

16
00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 3: I can tell, and I appreciated you.

17
00:01:07,519 --> 00:01:10,519
Speaker 1: It's like wrangling my own little group of kitty cats,

18
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,879
and I'll do it every single week if I have to.

19
00:01:14,359 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaking about kitty cats. He's the coolest cat in town.

20
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:23,120
Ian Riikert, that's me, Hi, Hi, Drane. How's it going bud, great, fantastic.

21
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,319
I have something to talk about the weekend, but I'll

22
00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:30,200
talk about that during the emails. Actually, because we have

23
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,400
the hater of all cats, anything Feeline is not fine

24
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:36,959
with him.

25
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,719
Speaker 4: Jeff Beckler, Hey, what's up, Jan? I'm still stoned, still

26
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,760
stone from four to twenty.

27
00:01:43,799 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 3: Man, that's right, I said, brother, that's right. We're gonna

28
00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:49,159
green out today, the green twenty.

29
00:01:49,239 --> 00:01:51,879
Speaker 4: It's a leap year for four twenty this year, what

30
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:57,799
does that mean? Goes into the following day. So everyone

31
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,640
who celebrated yesterday is still stone today. That's hown works

32
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,680
every four hundred and twenty years.

33
00:02:05,239 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: Damn, just like Jesus predicted exactly. He has risen and

34
00:02:10,319 --> 00:02:15,479
Jeff Backlar is high and he's never getting high because

35
00:02:15,479 --> 00:02:18,719
he's grounded because he is the bad boy of games.

36
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: Mood Mike Bnati, Hi, I like you.

37
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:32,879
Speaker 5: And I like you like you always so weird?

38
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 3: Yeah you got weird.

39
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: Hey, you know, if you're listening out there and you're

40
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,439
listening on maybe YouTube, on a twitch, maybe a podcast provider,

41
00:02:40,719 --> 00:02:43,840
why don't you just like give us five stars? Why

42
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,560
don't you just do a thumbs up? Why don't you subscribe?

43
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 3: I don't like you too.

44
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,599
Speaker 1: I hear all these other podcasts talk about call to actions.

45
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,719
I think we should have a couple more call to actions.

46
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,879
Go like like it and then go like another video.

47
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 3: Please.

48
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: I think it genuinely does help us out. It would

49
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,759
would make Chuck very happy. It would make Sean very happy.

50
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,159
It would make Will very happy. Every time. People don't

51
00:03:07,199 --> 00:03:10,520
know this, but every time a video gets liked, Will's

52
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,400
mustache curls.

53
00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:16,719
Speaker 3: Just a little bit more. I need yeah, exactly exactly.

54
00:03:16,759 --> 00:03:21,479
Speaker 1: Every little like increases the millisecond that Chuck floats whenever

55
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,360
he smells a pie. And don't you guys want to

56
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,560
see that at home? Don't you want to know that

57
00:03:25,599 --> 00:03:29,159
she provided pie floats to Chuck. Mike It likes for

58
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:29,960
Mike as well.

59
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 3: Likes for Mike.

60
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: Look look at the space, Look at that guy, Mike.

61
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,039
I just liked two videos just now. Oh oh, I

62
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:39,919

63
00:03:40,039 --> 00:03:42,639
Speaker 3: I like four the audio listeners missing out here? Holy

Speaker 3: Yeah? I did. I did the Red Eye situation for

92
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,639
a play. I tried to in and out weekend for

93
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,120
the first time ever where it's like, I'm just gonna

94
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,279
try to do forty eight hours in a town and

95
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,160
come back, and it's like, overall, I think I'm positive

96
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:26,000
on it because it doesn't feel it. It's I just

97
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,920
went with a backpack, you know, to Vegas for forty

98
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,240
eight hours and it was great. But it's like you

99
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:31,920
get back and you do the Red Eye thing, It's like, oh,

100
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,319
that does kind of it does kind of fuck you up,

101
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,399
but it's worth it. I told uh, I was telling

102
00:05:37,399 --> 00:05:39,199
my Debaucher's Vegas story of these guys before I went

103
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,839
on the air. I was in a suite that had

104
00:05:41,879 --> 00:05:44,199
a free candy situation, and I ate so many sour

105
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,800
Patch kids and Skittles that I threw up and that

106
00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:49,639
was not TI. I threw up. Did you really grow up? Yeah?

107
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,079
The next morning, yeah, because you're like, well, I kind

108
00:05:53,079 --> 00:05:55,199
of thinking I was. I really fucked up. The whole

109
00:05:55,199 --> 00:05:57,879
food situation was. I was in Vegas because I sounds

110
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,639
like it. Yeah, I assumed a night one it would

111
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,959
just be like they would have like real food in

112
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,639
the press box and stuff like that, and they didn't

113
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,800
for like a couple hours. It was just like pretzels

114
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,839
and potato chips and cheese ites, and so I kept

115
00:06:09,879 --> 00:06:11,560
like grabbing bags at that. So I didn't eat anything

116
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,519
all day. And I get there and I'm like, all right,

117
00:06:13,639 --> 00:06:16,319
gonna go nuts on some burgers and stuff, and it's like, oh,

118
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:17,680
they're not out yet. I guess I'll just get a

119
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,439
bunch of bags of chips and then they'd keep it.

120
00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:22,399
They didn't come out, and I kept drinking soda and

121
00:06:22,399 --> 00:06:25,759
eating chips and everything. Uh, And it wasn't like alcohol.

122
00:06:25,759 --> 00:06:27,279
They didn't have alcohol up there, so it was just

123
00:06:27,439 --> 00:06:28,959
chips and stuff was all I was eating all day.

124
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:30,959
And the next day I had a friend who had

125
00:06:30,959 --> 00:06:32,959
an empty spot in a suite, like if you had

126
00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:35,720
pe sweet thing. They had like an unlimited concession stand

127
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,959
for free and including sour Patch kids and skittles, and

128
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,600
I just ate those the whole fucking day. And so

129
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,920
my entire color work intake for the day was sour

130
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,399
Patch Kids, skittles, and beer. And then I read eye

131
00:06:46,439 --> 00:06:47,959
home and I woke up at like five in the

132
00:06:47,959 --> 00:06:50,680
morning just puking, like and it was not like a

133
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,959
hangover drinking puky. It was definitely my stomach is on

134
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:55,800
fire because of how many fucking Sour Patch kids.

135
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 5: I ate it happened.

136
00:06:57,519 --> 00:07:00,879
Speaker 1: It's did you realize you may being too many Soua

137
00:07:00,959 --> 00:07:03,720
Patch kids during the consuming process?

138
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 3: You know, I was in cloud nine. I was in

139
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,120
cloud nine. He doesn't know what.

140
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 5: And then as I was like.

141
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,839
Speaker 3: The show was wrapping up, I went to go pee.

142
00:07:11,079 --> 00:07:13,959
A lady that works at the stadium was like, better

143
00:07:13,959 --> 00:07:16,680
fill your pockets about the show's almost over, and I

144
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,279
wasn't going to, but then she told me to. She

145
00:07:18,399 --> 00:07:18,800
enabled me.

146
00:07:19,199 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 4: This lady, I figured, with her skin red, does she

147
00:07:22,279 --> 00:07:23,759
have horns pointing out of her?

148
00:07:23,959 --> 00:07:27,439
Speaker 1: She was a very nice now, very nice lady in

149
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,800
a suit. Follow a question about this lady's appearance, was

150
00:07:29,879 --> 00:07:32,519
she maybe tiny? Does she look like she was made

151
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:40,079
out of a jelly or gum and covered in sour cream?

152
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,079
Speaker 3: And I wasn't gonna get any more because I was like,

153
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,639
I had too many Sara Patch kids. And then she

154
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,240
said that. I was like, I'd be rude not to

155
00:07:47,519 --> 00:07:49,759
so I went up there and I just went fucking

156
00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:52,439
nuts and just filled all my Pocketay was literally like

157
00:07:52,439 --> 00:07:55,839
Homer in that Simpsons episode, like leaving just bulging shorts

158
00:07:55,879 --> 00:07:58,079
from fucking sour Patch kids and stuff. But then I

159
00:07:58,079 --> 00:07:59,399
didn't want to carry them out loose, so I had

160
00:07:59,439 --> 00:08:00,839
to get like a loose bag, and I'm carrying around

161
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,639
like a trash bag I got from my concession stand

162
00:08:02,639 --> 00:08:06,120
filled with candy through Las Vegas. It's you're the.

163
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 4: Kind of person that I'm like, Dylan, don't don't go

164
00:08:08,759 --> 00:08:14,000
up to that guy, you know, like in the bucketration,

165
00:08:14,319 --> 00:08:16,439
You're like, leave that guy with the loose bag of

166
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,199
Skittles alone in a zip you.

167
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 3: I don't know what deal.

168
00:08:19,759 --> 00:08:24,639
Speaker 4: They're gonna name a fucking disease after you, man, diabetes.

169
00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: Dana Beates, Well, I'm better. I think I got most

170
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,039
of it out of my system. I got a lot

171
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,440
of sleep, so I think I'm on the upsloe being

172
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:35,000
healthy again.

173
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: But Dan, your your teeth. You you were talking in

174
00:08:38,159 --> 00:08:40,200
the mic check about how you went to the.

175
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,159
Speaker 3: Dentist right before this this morning again, how you know

176
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:49,600
the candy factors into that some what lifetime I realized

177
00:08:49,759 --> 00:08:52,360
today I was there getting the bite adjusted again because

178
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,000
my teeth keep hurting. And I looked at my layout

179
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,120
thing of all my teeth, you know, it's like, okay,

180
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,519
this one has crowned as crown crime crann. And then

181
00:08:59,519 --> 00:09:02,559
they had one that just had a big, like cartoon

182
00:09:02,639 --> 00:09:04,600
crack in it, and I pointed at it because I

183
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,440
don't remember having work done on that. I said, what's

184
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,039
that and they were like, oh, that's a you've got

185
00:09:09,039 --> 00:09:11,120
a tooth with a fracture in it. But the other

186
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,639
stuff was higher priority, so we'll get to that, so

187
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:17,879
crack in it right now. So that's gonna have to

188
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:19,480
be a you should just eat paste.

189
00:09:19,919 --> 00:09:24,759
Speaker 4: You you're sending not only your dentist kids to college.

190
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,240
I feel like you're sending people on your dentist street.

191
00:09:28,799 --> 00:09:30,159
You're just sending to college.

192
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,159
Speaker 2: I think we could do like this could be a

193
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,840
huge sort of service we do to the public, where

194
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,080
if we just clip that out and send it to

195
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,840
people before they go to the dentist and be like,

196
00:09:38,879 --> 00:09:41,080
play this for your dentist, and then whatever they're gonna

197
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,240
say to you, you could feel better. Oh you don't

198
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:46,679
floss enough, trust me, Nothing compared to this.

199
00:09:47,039 --> 00:09:49,159
Speaker 3: Is I do floss and I brushed and everything. I

200
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,320
just do a lot of other real bad stuff to it. Yeah, yeah,

201
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:52,960
we got that.

202
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,879
Speaker 4: I think you man your whole, like I want all

203
00:09:56,919 --> 00:09:59,720
my teeth out and have like cyber teeth or whatever

204
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:00,320
you want on it.

205
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 3: I get it.

206
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,519
Speaker 4: Now, you're you're fully within your right to request that

207
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,279
kind of ridiculous A four.

208
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 3: Percent they do it in Vegas. It's like nine thousand

209
00:10:08,759 --> 00:10:11,000
dollars upper, nine thousand dollars lower. They just got all

210
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,039
your teeth and they give you these bionic teeth I'm

211
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,519
thinking about it gets a lot.

212
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 5: Of sensation when you do that, though, good what tooth?

213
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:21,080
What sensations you have my teeth besides pain? I guess yeah,

214
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,080
if your your sensations are mostly painful, maybe you like

215
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,000
fun tickles, Like what are you getting your It's like,

216
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,200
oh the sick it's yeah, it's it's pleasurable, Dan, you

217
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,360
don't have the pleasure teeth.

218
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 3: What are you feeling on your teeth? That's fun, you

219
00:10:35,759 --> 00:10:38,600
know when you crunch on something nice? Right?

220
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's doing right here.

221
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 2: All Okay, the amount of tooth trauma Dan has. I

222
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,360
don't blame him for feeling this way, but it makes sense.

223
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, how much of it is self inflicted?

224
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,440
No one can know, but yeah, I feel bad.

225
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:55,159
Speaker 5: I feel well.

226
00:10:55,279 --> 00:10:57,879
Speaker 3: Well, dad got peer pressured at the end there, like

227
00:10:57,919 --> 00:10:59,559
the fine.

228
00:11:00,159 --> 00:11:01,919
Speaker 2: Just getting the microphones into our mouth now to make

229
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,159
this podcast really sing?

230
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 3: No, yeah, because like I know where this mic has been,

231
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:07,639
and I know where that mic has been.

232
00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm older, all right, gang. Other than the teeth stuff,

233
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,039
how's everyone else?

234
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 2: Uh, ADDIE's actually having teeth pain, like she's she was

235
00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:23,200
like her molar's coming in. It's and it's like, oh,

236
00:11:23,399 --> 00:11:25,840
this is one of those things where she's in a

237
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,759
great deal of discomfort and some pain and there's just

238
00:11:28,799 --> 00:11:30,039
nothing you could do about it. You're like, yeah, this

239
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,480
is just gonna happen. You need to just go through this.

240
00:11:32,639 --> 00:11:35,039
That's a rough position to be in. Its parent, You're like, oh, yeah,

241
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,879
I guess here's some tail and all. I guess we'll

242
00:11:37,879 --> 00:11:39,639
try that. And then I have to send her off

243
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,159
to school. So I'm kind of waiting for the call

244
00:11:41,159 --> 00:11:43,080
from the teacher being like she's been crying all day,

245
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:43,679
come pick her up.

246
00:11:43,759 --> 00:11:47,879
Speaker 3: So, man, yeah, tea stuff's not fun. Oh here's fun stuff.

247
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,679
I got an idea. I got some marketing plans now

248
00:11:50,799 --> 00:11:52,399
that I learned over the weekend. Let's just in the

249
00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:56,679
middle of any conversation we're having insert Snickers ads. Okay,

250
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,840
does that work? I think people like that. I think

251
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:00,000
we should do that. I think we need to be

252
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,039
doing like thirty times more ads and make them as

253
00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:04,279
intrusive as possible.

254
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 5: Let's be sure to highlight their dental benefits.

255
00:12:08,879 --> 00:12:12,159
Speaker 1: Who yeah, yeah, in the middle of one of our

256
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,000
very important game discussions, we should just flash like a

257
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,919
slimjam ad instead.

258
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 3: No, we need to cut it out and cut out

259
00:12:19,039 --> 00:12:20,720
the conversation. I don't think people should be able to

260
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,679
hear the content. I just do the ads.

261
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 5: A joke about it, I don't I don't know.

262
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,399
Speaker 3: Wrestlemanting was fucking bad.

263
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 2: Their strategy for making more money from wrestling is to

264
00:12:31,639 --> 00:12:35,440
take something that was already pretty bad and make it

265
00:12:35,519 --> 00:12:37,360
worse and just about every way.

266
00:12:37,759 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 4: But how do you mean? I don't know, because you know.

267
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 2: You know, you grew up like remembering all these awesome

268
00:12:44,039 --> 00:12:48,559
entrances from these wrestlers, and it's like they were tiny, icic, iconic.

269
00:12:48,639 --> 00:12:51,279
Yeah yeah, what if they're what if they paused in

270
00:12:51,279 --> 00:12:52,759
the middle to tell you about Snickers?

271
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 5: Shut the fuck up and backler.

272
00:12:54,639 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: Here's where it gets crazy because we come from like

273
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,960
the old pay per view era where you pay, they

274
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,399
get your money and then you watch a wrestling show. Right, Yeah,

275
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,279
here's it's all confusing. Now it's a thirty dollars ESPN

276
00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:05,240
aff you're already paying, and then so the home viewer

277
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,240
is getting a million ADS and the people who pay

278
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,720
the ticket price of this year were fucking insane. We're

279
00:13:09,759 --> 00:13:11,960
talking many thousands of dollars if you're like anywhere on

280
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,240
the floor or whatever. So and it's the two night things.

281
00:13:14,279 --> 00:13:16,480
If you're a family, imagine that much you're spending.

282
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,919
Speaker 5: There and no families go there?

283
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 3: What do you mean are a ton of families? It

284
00:13:21,159 --> 00:13:24,440
was like half families. I would say, yeah, he was.

285
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,320
And then like during entrances, like in the middle of

286
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,039
an entrance, the guy's music will cut out. Snickers ads

287
00:13:31,159 --> 00:13:33,559
or whatever Capital One or the General or whatever ads

288
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,960
are blaring on every screen an Allegiance stadium, and then

289
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,679
they come back, they start the guy's music up again

290
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,639
and he's doing his taunts in the ring and crazy,

291
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,240
it was so fucking aggressive on top of all the

292
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,039
stuff on the ring, although like they had a fucking

293
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,919
crypto guy some bills, some crypto billionaire pay to sit

294
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,840
at commentary for the women's championship match, and they didn't

295
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,279
have him on a mic, so they just him sit

296
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,120
next to the commentators because he pays. Insane, the most

297
00:13:58,159 --> 00:14:02,039
aggressive greedy bullshit, Like in an industry that has always

298
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,440
been known for aggressive, greedy Carnie bullshit, now it is

299
00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:09,480
just like past parody. It is fucking insane. Yeah, I

300
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:12,200
guess it's not surprising, right, it's not surprising. No.

301
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,519
Speaker 2: No, the current owner ownership, no, yeah, I mean the

302
00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:17,000
previous ownership was bad and now it's worse.

303
00:14:16,799 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 3: In every way.

304
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 2: I didn't watch a second of it, but all the

305
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,120
stuff I was getting on social media was like, yeah, cool,

306
00:14:22,159 --> 00:14:24,480
good decision to spend my time elsewhere, for sure.

307
00:14:24,519 --> 00:14:28,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, speaking about stuff spending time elsewhere, I've been, you know,

308
00:14:28,799 --> 00:14:33,000
perusing the streets of San Francisco and Oakland, and I've

309
00:14:33,039 --> 00:14:36,360
been going to a couple more bars, not in a

310
00:14:36,399 --> 00:14:39,720
sad way, folks at home, in a fun way where

311
00:14:39,759 --> 00:14:45,919
I'm like, oh, I appreciate the craftsmanship of cocktails once again, specifically.

312
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 3: A good martini.

313
00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:49,519
Speaker 1: But let me tell you a gang. Let me tell

314
00:14:49,559 --> 00:14:56,039
you I absolutely adore eclectic, weird bartenders, and I think

315
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,000
sure there was like a period of time, specifically in

316
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,279
San Francisco, where they were prevalent and a little bit

317
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,320
too much. I think we have now reached a middle

318
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,600
ground where there are still too much but you're cool

319
00:15:08,279 --> 00:15:11,159
meta dude over the weekend shouts out to Trick Dog.

320
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,559
Go to Trick Dog if you're in San Francisco. One

321
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,440
of the best bars. I think I got voted like

322
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,679
one of the best bars in the country. But uh,

323
00:15:18,759 --> 00:15:21,519
I'm with my friend the person I'm I'm going to

324
00:15:21,559 --> 00:15:24,480
this bar with. They introduced me to the bartender. Bartender

325
00:15:24,559 --> 00:15:27,440
just like holds his fist up, just goes put up dog.

326
00:15:28,039 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 3: I'm bones. Oh cool? Like yo is that short? He's bones?

327
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: And I was like, yo is that short for somethings?

328
00:15:36,559 --> 00:15:38,639
Like nah, it's just bones, And like yo is that

329
00:15:38,679 --> 00:15:42,519
with with a Z? It was like no, but maybe

330
00:15:42,519 --> 00:15:43,480
it should be with the Z.

331
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:46,799
Speaker 3: Is his mcoy.

332
00:15:48,039 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 5: It might not be as cool as you think. This

333
00:15:49,519 --> 00:15:50,720
could be a star trek thing.

334
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: But what I do want to shout out is I

335
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,080
like flights are fun, right, A flight of beer, very

336
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:04,240
fun flight. It's like the sampler of alcohol. But the

337
00:16:04,279 --> 00:16:08,960
more fun thing is a flight of tiny teenies. Jeff Backlar,

338
00:16:09,559 --> 00:16:12,399
I thought of you during this A right, okay. We

339
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,519
had a regular martine. We had a regular Martini's one sure,

340
00:16:15,879 --> 00:16:21,159
second one big ass blue cheese olive sure, third had

341
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,480
some palm.

342
00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:27,679
Speaker 3: A palm rindedn't it palm like cheese? It was a

343
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,879
dirty cheesey martini.

344
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 4: Were these all gin or vodka?

345
00:16:34,759 --> 00:16:37,639
Speaker 3: Vodka? Well? I chose so you could do either or

346
00:16:38,039 --> 00:16:38,919
yeah no, I'm.

347
00:16:38,799 --> 00:16:41,639
Speaker 4: A vodka guy too, so you so. The first one

348
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:42,919
was just like a standard one with.

349
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 5: Olives, yeah, yep.

350
00:16:44,519 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 4: And then like dirty dirty though, or just like.

351
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 3: Normal dirty, dirty dirty.

352
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 4: Then one with blue cheese, which don't knock it if

353
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,039
you've never tried it. I know on its face it

354
00:16:54,159 --> 00:16:57,679
sounds like, hey, what's this blue cheese doing in my cockten?

355
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,399
It sounds like a ranch soda? Yeah yeah, but it plays,

356
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:05,000
it plays. And then a parm rine. Wow, no olives

357
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,440
with the parm rine, No olives, no olives, just the

358
00:17:07,519 --> 00:17:08,079
parm rine.

359
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:08,799
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah.

360
00:17:08,839 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: And then I had a pickle beer, which was crazy delicious.

361
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 3: It was good.

362
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: Again, don't knock too, try it. I'm not one for

363
00:17:17,519 --> 00:17:20,960
pickles too much, but I had it and I greatly

364
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:21,480
enjoyed it.

365
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 5: Huh.

366
00:17:23,279 --> 00:17:25,279
Speaker 1: Anyway, I'm talking it to the list of like you

367
00:17:25,279 --> 00:17:27,640
know what next. I don't know when, if, and when

368
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:29,920
any of the boys will be back in San Francisco,

369
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,319
but I'm like, I want to take them to my

370
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,799
special places. Yeah, speaking about special places, everyone is good

371
00:17:36,839 --> 00:17:39,839
in their special places over the weekend before we get

372
00:17:39,839 --> 00:17:41,480
to video games.

373
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

374
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I've spent most of my time outside, which

375
00:17:47,279 --> 00:17:49,240
is nice. I have to say that, right, I have

376
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,240
to say going outside is nice. Yeah, if you like it,

377
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:52,960
don't look.

378
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:53,519
Speaker 3: I mean I do.

379
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 2: I do, but it's like reluctant because it's like every

380
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,640
time I go outside, I'm like.

381
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do feel better.

382
00:17:59,079 --> 00:17:59,759
Speaker 5: This is stupid.

383
00:17:59,799 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 2: That makes me feel better. I wish, I wish I

384
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,160
could just still feel better laying down doing nothing, but no,

385
00:18:05,319 --> 00:18:08,119
going outside does work. It was like doing yard work

386
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,960
and stuff. Still I this, uh my robot lawnmower saga

387
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,799
continue where it's like it's working now, but it's not

388
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,240
doing a good job anymore, and I'm worried I'm gonna

389
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,440
have to start mowing my lawn the manual way against

390
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,519
so I replace, Yes, I'm like, Okay, I need to

391
00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:28,880
replace these blades, and I did you know it comes

392
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,880
with little razor blades you put in there. I replaced them,

393
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,960
and uh it's yeah, I think you know, the grass

394
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,200
got too long, so the batteries were fucked to begin with.

395
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 3: So I waited too long.

396
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 2: And I'm hoping it's like it just needs to get

397
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,519
through like a couple of good mos and then once

398
00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:43,559
it gets to a good baseline, it'll do a good

399
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,119
job of maintenance. But we're not getting over that hump.

400
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,880
It's it looks it looks bad out there. It looks

401
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,559
worse than when the grass was just long. It's a

402
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,759
patchy and weird. Uh So, yeah, I spent a lot

403
00:18:54,799 --> 00:18:57,559
of time trying to diagnose the problems with a robot

404
00:18:57,799 --> 00:19:00,319
that's supposed to make my life easier, which is, I

405
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,200
don't think the point of getting a robot for your birthday.

406
00:19:03,319 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 3: How much is a lawnmower? What kind of lawn more?

407
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,680
Are you talking about a replaced or get a new

408
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,279
one or something?

409
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,039
Speaker 2: So if like I were to get a lawnmower, would

410
00:19:12,079 --> 00:19:15,319
probably spinning a minimum of like fifteen hundred to like

411
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,359
to like get something that's going to be decent at

412
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,039
this point. The robot mower, I mean just kind of

413
00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:22,920
like we I would like probably go all out and

414
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,599
get like a decent you know, maybe entry level riding

415
00:19:25,839 --> 00:19:26,400
more at this place.

416
00:19:28,319 --> 00:19:31,279
Speaker 3: Yeah yard, Yeah, yeah, riding sounds fine.

417
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the that was the choice. It was

418
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,799
riding lawn mower or the robot.

419
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: And yeah, you make it so terrified to to try

420
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,640
and own a home eventually.

421
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:41,279
Speaker 3: And the maintenance.

422
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 5: I mean, some people like mowing their lawn. You know,

423
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,720
it's fine, you Mike, what do you do? I pay people,

424
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,000
he pays to help.

425
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:51,559
Speaker 3: Please.

426
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,279
Speaker 5: I get it. I don't like it, but it's fine.

427
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,680
It's worth it to have a lawn, all right.

428
00:19:59,759 --> 00:20:01,079
Speaker 3: Yeah I would. I would.

429
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,599
Speaker 4: I feel like I would prefer I don't know. I

430
00:20:03,599 --> 00:20:06,240
don't know what's more environmentally friendly. I'm sure it's not

431
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,920
watering a lawn for six months out of the year,

432
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,960
eight months a year.

433
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 3: That seems bad.

434
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would, I would. I would do, Like, I

435
00:20:13,319 --> 00:20:15,599
don't know, is terf a thing that you could do?

436
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 3: You can't do it almost no way that the HOA

437
00:20:18,759 --> 00:20:21,359
would be cool with that. I'm a h I am.

438
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 2: I do and it's pretty chill, but I don't think

439
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,559
they're gonna let me put in fake but I don't.

440
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,400
I do like having the lawn. We don't have to

441
00:20:29,559 --> 00:20:31,799
we don't have to water it because there's a lake

442
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,279
right over there and that just it just happens. No

443
00:20:34,319 --> 00:20:37,480
one's got springing, no, no, yeah.

444
00:20:37,079 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 5: There's I just no, I've never seen anybody like I

445
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,599
don't have to water lawn.

446
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,599
Speaker 3: And it's pretty much thrust all of Ohio.

447
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,839
Speaker 2: Sprinklers are really rare, really but yeah, but especially up

448
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,920
here where it's like I am, you know, like I said,

449
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,000
like five hundred feet from the lake or whatever, and uh,

450
00:20:51,039 --> 00:20:54,440
it really does just yeah, my super green grass all

451
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,680
the time. You know, we do a little bit of

452
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,680
extra to it. But yeah, that's that's not too much

453
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,079
of an effort. So it's like, hey, I can have

454
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,160
a nice yard if I want to without having to

455
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,759
worry about all the like wasting too much water. But yeah,

456
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,880
that springtime getting over the hump, it's like, oh, I

457
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,599
do have to put quite a bit of energy into

458
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:10,559
this to get it into a decent shape.

459
00:21:10,559 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 4: In the beginning every year, every year, the sprinkler guy

460
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,880
gotta do this song in the dance with the sprinkler

461
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,440
guy who wants to put new sprinklers in, and I'm

462
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,400
just like, what's wrong with the ones that are in there?

463
00:21:20,559 --> 00:21:23,200
And he's like, he's like, oh, they'll break, they'll bust,

464
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,319
and you know you got to clear it. I'm just like, buddy,

465
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,799
I don't want new sprinklers just yet until there's just

466
00:21:28,839 --> 00:21:30,640
like a pool of mud in my front lawn.

467
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

468
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 4: He's like, all right, and I'll put a pool of

469
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:33,640
mud in your fucking.

470
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,839
Speaker 3: Fall, know if I have sprinklers.

471
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, so so yeah, I feel like it's you know,

472
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,039
it's a it's it's a nice thing to do to

473
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,319
like keep it nice.

474
00:21:46,599 --> 00:21:48,799
Speaker 3: I mean there, but I think I might have sprinklers,

475
00:21:48,799 --> 00:21:49,759
but I'm not sure.

476
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 5: From sprinklers.

477
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,759
Speaker 3: If I do have them, they've definitely never been on

478
00:21:54,799 --> 00:21:56,559
since I've lived here. But there are like things in

479
00:21:56,599 --> 00:21:58,599
the lawn that look like what's that weird hole for?

480
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 5: You know? Far as to come? Okay, we got a

481
00:22:06,039 --> 00:22:07,359
back or veto all right.

482
00:22:10,319 --> 00:22:13,839
Speaker 1: I was gonna say taking care of alone, Uh sounds

483
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:18,440
like a scam and that's appropriate because during UPFU, most

484
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,599
of us were able to play scam lines. I just

485
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,799
want to talk about it briefly. Very fun game. There

486
00:22:23,839 --> 00:22:27,079
was about seven of us there. Most of the crew

487
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,160
Backler was out on assignments, so we pulled in Bailey

488
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,799
Myers to join us, and we had a great time.

489
00:22:31,839 --> 00:22:36,039
And I'm glad that our friendship in and like uh

490
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,680
bonds are strong enough to sustain all of the lying

491
00:22:39,799 --> 00:22:44,240
that happened. The only type of pat a little bit.

492
00:22:44,759 --> 00:22:46,680
I didn't lie once at all. It was it was

493
00:22:46,759 --> 00:22:50,480
kind of like observing now how much Will was trying

494
00:22:50,519 --> 00:22:53,279
to manipulate everyone and turn everyone against us.

495
00:22:53,559 --> 00:22:56,559
Speaker 3: Wow, you know. And then the same thing with Sean,

496
00:22:56,759 --> 00:23:00,160
Sweet Sean was was pulling the strings the puppet as

497
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,519
through the whole time Grub. This is one of those

498
00:23:02,559 --> 00:23:06,400
games where you can only talk to people via the

499
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,160
phone and you can only talk to one person at

500
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:10,640
a time during these mini games.

501
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 1: So the games will range from like trying social deduction

502
00:23:14,559 --> 00:23:18,000
and lying to each other. For instance, like you will

503
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,400
have a shape and you're supposed to help or maybe

504
00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:24,559
lie to the other person on the line to figure

505
00:23:24,559 --> 00:23:26,039
out what shape you both have.

506
00:23:28,279 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 2: Yep, it's the It's like there's a lot of you know,

507
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,920
prisoner's dilemma stuff in there. There's just a lot of

508
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,000
game theory and it's all about yeah, we're working with

509
00:23:38,319 --> 00:23:41,119
or working against the other people and sort of trying

510
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,400
to gauge how willing they are to work with you

511
00:23:43,759 --> 00:23:47,319
or if they are lying, and uh, it's it's really

512
00:23:47,319 --> 00:23:49,119
smart because it's very quick games.

513
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 3: It goes very fast. The points system is not like.

514
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,039
Speaker 2: Out of Whack where if you win one game you're

515
00:23:54,079 --> 00:23:56,000
gonna be super behind. You have a chance of catching up.

516
00:23:56,039 --> 00:23:58,000
So everyone like felt like they were in it, and

517
00:23:58,039 --> 00:24:01,279
it really did encourage everyone to like along. You know,

518
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,920
there's a I watched that documentary that Holding Ideas did

519
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,240
about the Beast Games, which is his uh mister Beast's

520
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,920
take on Squid Games, and he their game design for

521
00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:15,640
that game show is pretty bad, where like they didn't

522
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,039
give people incentives to like lie in a lot of them,

523
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,400
and this does not have that problem. Everyone was eventually

524
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,480
incentivized to sort of being a I'm like, we were

525
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,440
playing the Prisoner's Dilemma one, which is, hey, if we

526
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,079
press the green button, we're both going to get three points.

527
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,279
If if we both press the red button, we're going

528
00:24:32,319 --> 00:24:33,839
to get one point. But if I press the green

529
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,039
button and you and you press the red button, I'm

530
00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:38,319
gonna get zero points. And you're gonna get five points.

531
00:24:38,799 --> 00:24:40,799
And I was starting out like, let's just always press

532
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,599
the the green button. Guys like that's you know, do

533
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,319
what's best for yourself, then the other person. That's beautiful

534
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,440
mind game theory stuff. That's the best thing. Very quickly

535
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,559
you could see the scores of the people who are lying,

536
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:57,720
mostly Bailey just shooting ahead of everywhere else. And I'm like, okay,

537
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,160
we have to lie. And so Mike up and he's like, hey,

538
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,359
I'm gonna press the green button. I'm like, oh, buddy,

539
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,960
I'm sorry, but yeah, me too. And I pressed the

540
00:25:06,039 --> 00:25:08,440
red button and I got my first five points. I

541
00:25:08,519 --> 00:25:09,519
was like, well that felt nice.

542
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,559
Speaker 1: Well funny you mentioned that, Grub, because like in the

543
00:25:12,599 --> 00:25:15,240
first game we were playing, you were very adamant about

544
00:25:15,279 --> 00:25:17,359
I'm not lying, I'm just letting you all lie to yourselves,

545
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,480
and that quickly changed from games onwards.

546
00:25:20,839 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's multiple strategies, right. There was one where it's like,

547
00:25:23,799 --> 00:25:26,240
I'm I'm a bad liar in this game. People are telling,

548
00:25:26,319 --> 00:25:28,319
so I'm gonna tell the truth. But I can tell

549
00:25:28,519 --> 00:25:30,960
I can gather information about when other people are lying,

550
00:25:31,279 --> 00:25:34,799
and so division among other people. So I'm like, tell

551
00:25:34,839 --> 00:25:37,319
me who told you that, oh they're lying to you.

552
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,400
And I always told the truth on that and it

553
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,720
would cause people to go back and have these conversations

554
00:25:41,759 --> 00:25:44,799
and break through agreements that they had and that also

555
00:25:44,839 --> 00:25:46,680
benefited me. And it's like, oh, this is a really

556
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,839
cool way of getting people together in a different kind

557
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:51,119
of multiplayer game. And I thought it just kind of

558
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,920
boiled down to its most component parts and worked surprisingly well.

559
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,480
I think we all had a good time despite the

560
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,160
fact that we were lying and screwing each other over

561
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,920
for an hour and an hour half or whatever we did.

562
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 3: I struggle because it'd be like there, it'd be like

563
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,880
Jan or Mike or whatever on the other line, and

564
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,559
it'd be just so earnestly sounded just like hey, okay,

565
00:26:07,599 --> 00:26:09,480
like they are we really gonna We're gonna be bud

566
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,079
buds here, right, And yeah, Like I as much as

567
00:26:12,079 --> 00:26:13,759
I like control and stuff like that, it's like, man,

568
00:26:13,799 --> 00:26:15,519
I don think he'd just lie to his face like

569
00:26:15,559 --> 00:26:18,119
that and him over like that's that that hurt? Yeah,

570
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,880
but like some of it was fun, like the ones

571
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,039
that would mask your voice. Yeah, so you're trying to

572
00:26:23,039 --> 00:26:25,599
figure out there, like you because I've never thought actively

573
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,000
about like anyone's speech patterns or things like that, but

574
00:26:28,039 --> 00:26:30,519
like somebody would start talking like like that sounds like

575
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:31,640
kind of how Bailey talks.

576
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 5: Now.

577
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 3: I think Jan does that, like when he says hi

578
00:26:34,039 --> 00:26:36,680
to me or something like that. That was interesting that

579
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,920
one that one did not help me at every would

580
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,240
immediately do it.

581
00:26:40,279 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 5: Was me, I don't know because my speech pattern is

582
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,839
so recognizable, or the audio maasking just was not enough

583
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,519
for this distinctive voice. But everyone's immediately just like bike

584
00:26:49,799 --> 00:26:50,200
like shit.

585
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,559
Speaker 2: I said hello and so I still know who don't

586
00:26:53,559 --> 00:26:55,359
know who it was. I said hello, and they're like, wait,

587
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,720
that's grub. Just from Hello, I could tell it's grub.

588
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 5: Wow.

589
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: So I started doing I started like talking in a

590
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,920
high pitch voice, trying to hide it, and everyone thought I.

591
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:08,039
Speaker 5: Was Mike, Oh wow, that looks I'm.

592
00:27:07,839 --> 00:27:09,839
Speaker 2: Like, this is really funny. I like also try to

593
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,039
use my goggsler to hide my voice more. I'm like,

594
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,720
I want to like see if I could really.

595
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 3: Hide my voice. That didn't work.

596
00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 2: It was definitely patterns and stuff, but yeah, the high

597
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:18,680
pitch voice did work.

598
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 3: I tried to keep singing under the sea, thinking people

599
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,359
would think it was how far do you get in

600
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,799
that one under the se.

601
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 5: Little Yeah, we gotta get back we gotta get back

602
00:27:34,279 --> 00:27:35,759
Lar into two scam lines.

603
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 1: We've got to run it back one time for the

604
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:37,759
one time.

605
00:27:37,839 --> 00:27:39,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly funny.

606
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,839
Speaker 3: Because I Backler does these voices that I feel I

607
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,799
could could really fudge around with the whole everything.

608
00:27:46,559 --> 00:27:49,559
Speaker 5: Just yeah, just uh do that whole thing as one

609
00:27:49,599 --> 00:27:52,799
of your famous characters do it as the entire time.

610
00:27:54,319 --> 00:27:57,799
Speaker 3: But then we would know, we would know that will.

611
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,039
Speaker 5: Get feels speakls here.

612
00:27:59,079 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 3: We'll have to invent new people for yes.

613
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,319
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, okay, yeah, we'll have to get Nikki. I

614
00:28:05,319 --> 00:28:11,440
feel like Abby would be very yeah. Yeah uh speaking

615
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:16,039
about lying in things tied to lying why lying can

616
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,079
lead to hatred folks at home, So don't do it

617
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,640
too much because Mike Manatta, you've been playing, and I

618
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:22,799
believe this is safe to talk about.

619
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, yeah, yes it is. I see the reviews up.

620
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you've been playing Diablo four Lord of Hatred yep.

621
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,839
Speaker 5: This is the second Diablo four expansion. I got some

622
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,759
early access to this one, didn't play through it or anything,

623
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:44,079
but was able to make the new class a Warlock

624
00:28:44,359 --> 00:28:47,799
and check out the campaign for a good while here.

625
00:28:48,039 --> 00:28:50,839
Now I'm like kind of like, okay with Diablo four.

626
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,680
Up to this point, I always have a good enough

627
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,440
time playing it, I don't find it interesting enough to

628
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,200
like really stick with seasonal characters and dive deep. The

629
00:28:59,279 --> 00:29:01,519
combat kind of like devolves to me into just like

630
00:29:02,079 --> 00:29:04,559
I don't you know that moonnight go random bullshit thing.

631
00:29:04,599 --> 00:29:06,480
I feel like I'm kind of mashing buttons and a

632
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,559
million things are happening. I know there's more nuance to that,

633
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,920
especially at higher difficulties, but it at least playing through

634
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,559
the campaigns isn't as engaging as playing a Diablo two

635
00:29:15,599 --> 00:29:19,720
campaign or something like like that. But in this one

636
00:29:19,759 --> 00:29:21,839
I was having a pretty good time so far. The

637
00:29:21,839 --> 00:29:25,319
warlock is a really cool class. I was a little skeptical, like, okay,

638
00:29:25,359 --> 00:29:29,480
another kind of castor you know, magician thing, how does

639
00:29:29,519 --> 00:29:31,880
this feel different? And they have a lot of you know,

640
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,039
like fire spells and they summoned demons things like that.

641
00:29:35,359 --> 00:29:37,359
Even just beyond the aesthetics of it, some of the

642
00:29:37,359 --> 00:29:39,519
stuff it was doing was neat, Like my one of

643
00:29:39,519 --> 00:29:42,960
my big spells would make a fissure and then fire

644
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,519
would explode out of it when it clicks. So where

645
00:29:44,519 --> 00:29:47,400
if I click booms. But then the neat thing is

646
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,759
if I did another one, like the old fissure would

647
00:29:49,759 --> 00:29:51,759
still be there for a little bit. So if I

648
00:29:51,799 --> 00:29:54,160
cast somewhere else, I'd make a new fissure that explodes,

649
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,920
but the old fissure would explode too, so for it

650
00:29:57,119 --> 00:29:59,440
kind of places around and do a ton of damage

651
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,279
over all wider area. Then another point, I was like

652
00:30:02,319 --> 00:30:06,039
summoning a like a demon head that was just shooting

653
00:30:06,079 --> 00:30:09,680
like a flamethrower kind of wherever I put it. So, yeah,

654
00:30:09,759 --> 00:30:14,200
the moosset seemed pretty fun. The story was moving along

655
00:30:14,279 --> 00:30:16,640
at a good pace. There has a very nice recap

656
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,720
in the beginning, because even I'm like, what happened in

657
00:30:18,759 --> 00:30:22,200
that last expansion in the main game, something about a

658
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,039
devil and an angel? Right, so caught me up. Good

659
00:30:26,079 --> 00:30:29,400
there you you immediately go on a boat to a

660
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,480
new city. The boat sequence was kind of fun, and

661
00:30:31,519 --> 00:30:34,200
then the city itself seems like really big, much bigger

662
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,119
than a Diebo city has felt, and it also has

663
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,759
a good vibe. Sometimes everything in Diablo is kind of

664
00:30:39,799 --> 00:30:43,319
just like it's shitty in this place, that's sleep right

665
00:30:43,839 --> 00:30:45,599
in this place. It's like, oh, it's like this kind

666
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:48,039
of court Town, and like, you know, there's obviously a

667
00:30:48,079 --> 00:30:51,119
corrupt undercurrent, but it's pretty to look at for a bit,

668
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,359
and the uneasiness comes in other ways and just showing

669
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,880
piles of wooden boxes and sand everywhere or something, you know,

670
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,079
so aesthetically it looks nice. But yeah, I was having

671
00:31:02,519 --> 00:31:04,440
a good time with it. I bet I'll enjoy playing

672
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,960
through that campaign again. I don't I don't know if

673
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,440
this is like peak Diablo or anything like that for me,

674
00:31:10,519 --> 00:31:12,920
but I was into it.

675
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:19,079
Speaker 2: I want tom short of of Mike doing the voices

676
00:31:19,119 --> 00:31:21,319
for like Decord Kane explaining the world Diablo.

677
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,079
Speaker 3: It's shitty.

678
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 4: I love that, Mike. I just want to bottle that up.

679
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: You know, we should put that on a bumper sticker

680
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:36,640
actually just Mike's space and then just go shit, it's

681
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,240
pretty rough.

682
00:31:37,319 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 5: It's pretty rough here. Then you'll it's shitty, then you'll die. Probably.

683
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 3: Hey if that could apply to our real life place

684
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,039
of residence right now? Uh?

685
00:31:46,279 --> 00:31:49,079
Speaker 1: Like, do you ever play these Diablo games like multiplayer

686
00:31:49,119 --> 00:31:51,640
or is this purely a solo dolo experience for you?

687
00:31:51,759 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 5: I all my memorable experience with what the games have

688
00:31:55,519 --> 00:32:00,079
been me solo dolo ing. Uh, right, Like even like

689
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,440
I'll do some multiplayer stuff like du dungeons with my brothers. Honestly,

690
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,160
like most of that happened when Diablo three was a

691
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,960
console game and it was suddenly a really good couch

692
00:32:10,079 --> 00:32:12,920
co op experience. It just kind of felt like Gaunt,

693
00:32:13,079 --> 00:32:15,599
like a modern one of those Gauntlet games. That was

694
00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:20,319
the most fun it's ever been co op. Otherwise, I

695
00:32:20,359 --> 00:32:22,200
don't know, I could I get into that stuff a

696
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,279
little bit, but again, a lot of that is sort

697
00:32:24,279 --> 00:32:28,599
of more almost end gaming. It's just kind of a

698
00:32:28,599 --> 00:32:32,119
different how the game feels because like Diablo two, Diablo one,

699
00:32:32,279 --> 00:32:35,160
the game was playing the campaign that was the game

700
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,599
There's obviously a lot of post game stuff too, for sure,

701
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,319
but to me that felt like the experience. And then

702
00:32:40,599 --> 00:32:42,720
in the kind of Diablo three Diablo four world, the

703
00:32:42,759 --> 00:32:46,640
campaign is almost like I don't say tutorial, but almost

704
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,640
feels like a prelude to the quote unquote real game,

705
00:32:49,799 --> 00:32:52,720
which is the seasonal content and like getting all these

706
00:32:52,759 --> 00:32:56,359
cosmetics and going up to Torment level fifteen to get

707
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,160
your super delves or whatever all that stuff is called. Right,

708
00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:02,200
I think we could become life service games, right, and

709
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,400
that that that is the model here and that that

710
00:33:04,559 --> 00:33:06,480
is going to be the model. Then doing these big

711
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:08,960
expansions like this, I mean, you know, that is a

712
00:33:09,039 --> 00:33:10,440
nice thing to do. I'm glad we still get these

713
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,319
big content drops and it's not just stuff slowly getting

714
00:33:13,319 --> 00:33:16,319
dold out and less interesting ways. We do get huge

715
00:33:16,319 --> 00:33:17,000
story beats.

716
00:33:17,039 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 3: Here.

717
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 5: That guy with the voice from Uh, I don't know

718
00:33:20,759 --> 00:33:23,599
he's he was he was sitting sixteen. He's a major

719
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,000
character in this one again. So I liked having him

720
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,000
back because he was kind of out doing his own

721
00:33:29,039 --> 00:33:32,359
thing during the last expansion, So him being back was nice.

722
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,319
Speaker 3: Is it Ralph in a sense? Dud Dude's So it's

723
00:33:36,359 --> 00:33:37,960
got a good voice. It's got a good voice. He

724
00:33:38,039 --> 00:33:40,200
was good in The Green Knight as well.

725
00:33:40,799 --> 00:33:42,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's the Green Knight.

726
00:33:42,559 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, wow, Mikey with a movie. Okay that that.

727
00:33:45,799 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 5: Movie had semen in it.

728
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: Well, going from the depths of uh.

729
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,799
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, Michael, Jesus stop coming.

730
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 3: I didn't hear what you said, Mike, but don't don't worry.

731
00:34:00,319 --> 00:34:04,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, I gotta go pick up a child who's not you.

732
00:34:06,279 --> 00:34:10,199
What else do you know? You wizard peek into your

733
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:11,559
crystal ball for us.

734
00:34:12,119 --> 00:34:15,159
Speaker 3: Bye, guys, we'll be right back. Okay, by this what's coming,

735
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,760
He's not going to leave leaves. No, that's good, that's good.

736
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:21,679
Speaker 5: It'll okay.

737
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 4: The layout someday, someday, let's see, let's time him go.

738
00:34:29,519 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 3: Well, this is perfect it Las Vegas, do long, sir long.

739
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: I agree, this is perfect because I think Jeff Grubb

740
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,800
is still early in uh a game that I think

741
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,920
we're all very far to, if not completed.

742
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,599
Speaker 5: If not talking about being.

743
00:34:50,039 --> 00:34:54,679
Speaker 1: Mas that's right, Mada p Mags, as it is known

744
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:59,159
in the streets boys gang. I think this would be

745
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,880
a ten out of t ten or a five out

746
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,760
of five game if it had one thing, one more

747
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:09,599
thing in it motorcycle. No, no, no. I've since completed

748
00:35:09,639 --> 00:35:12,400
the game. I absolutely adore it. I like where the

749
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,719
story winds up going and everything a little cheesy little.

750
00:35:16,079 --> 00:35:21,000
It feels like it's like a popcorn like Blockbuster style game,

751
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,599
but it doesn't overstay. It's welcome to the thing that

752
00:35:23,679 --> 00:35:26,320
I need this to do. Because in the quick look, Mike,

753
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,280
you alluded to, Oh yeah, by the time I finished

754
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,639
this game, I had like eight dashes or boosts that

755
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:34,480
I would just zipping all over the place, and the

756
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,599
way that the game futz is around with gravity because

757
00:35:36,599 --> 00:35:39,440
you're in space, those dashes go a very long way.

758
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,480
It's very fun how they mess with that and the verticality.

759
00:35:43,599 --> 00:35:45,800
It would be five out of five for me if

760
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:51,000
they had given h a ground pound ability, if they

761
00:35:51,039 --> 00:35:54,920
gave him, if they gave him a butt stomp with

762
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:59,119
his boosters, it would be perfect, primarily because I think

763
00:35:59,159 --> 00:36:02,760
it would lend its very well to the overall mobility

764
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:03,199
of the game.

765
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, but what about what's her face, Deanna? That would

766
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,559
like screw up her positioning?

767
00:36:08,639 --> 00:36:12,559
Speaker 5: No, she's a little lit Yoshi, but Thompson Yoshi's island

768
00:36:12,599 --> 00:36:15,440
and mark on him and he's.

769
00:36:15,199 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's got enough hardware on the back there

770
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,280
where I'm sure it could like modify itself to right.

771
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 5: She doesn't have real needs, so she'll be fine, right.

772
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the best part of this game is that

773
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:27,159
she's not a person.

774
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,199
Speaker 3: You know, there's no escorts of whatsoever. You never have

775
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,079
to worry about her dying, like, yeah, that is great.

776
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, And and the fact that like you don't have

777
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,519
to really care about her well being, you know, at

778
00:36:38,559 --> 00:36:41,679
least Hugh seems to. I mean, I'm not I've I've

779
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:46,880
only finished that Big Boss in the Times Square. That's

780
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,079
that's as far as i'm But like, it's just yeah,

781
00:36:50,159 --> 00:36:51,599
she's just it just doesn't matter.

782
00:36:52,079 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 3: She's her her.

783
00:36:53,559 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 5: You know, disagree, disagree, disagree, I mean protected at all Cross.

784
00:36:58,960 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 3: Yes, I would.

785
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 4: Faced with the same dilemma, I would also protect her.

786
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,960
I I think I think she's she's very funny and likable.

787
00:37:07,119 --> 00:37:11,360
I think that's everything about her is pretty cool. But again,

788
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:12,920
you know, it's sort of just like at the end

789
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:13,679
of the night, if it was you.

790
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 5: Or me again, make another one of you, if it

791
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,320
was you or a random actual child.

792
00:37:24,599 --> 00:37:24,679
Speaker 3: Me.

793
00:37:26,599 --> 00:37:28,599
Speaker 5: All right, well, I don't want to.

794
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:33,599
Speaker 4: I don't want to go I don't want to experiments

795
00:37:33,599 --> 00:37:34,320
with you right now.

796
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 1: No offense to a regular decular child.

797
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:38,840
Speaker 3: But like what there there?

798
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: They won't be able to hack into a robic there

799
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,159
will be They'll be no use to you, is.

800
00:37:44,079 --> 00:37:44,760
Speaker 5: What you're saying.

801
00:37:45,519 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 4: Yes, Yeah, that's what he's saying.

802
00:37:48,039 --> 00:37:50,800
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. Yes, that is the hot take.

803
00:37:51,599 --> 00:37:55,920
Thanks for Mike. Everybody like this video. Please like all

804
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,559
the videos, even if it doesn't have Mic on it. Please,

805
00:38:00,639 --> 00:38:03,639
but holy smokes, gang, at the end, it's been a

806
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,000
very long time since I've felt compelled to go back

807
00:38:07,039 --> 00:38:09,679
through a game and try one hundred percent or hit

808
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,159
up a new game plus. But like, just the gameplay

809
00:38:12,159 --> 00:38:15,679
loop and just how it feels has me hooked in

810
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,960
a way where I don't want to leave the world.

811
00:38:19,039 --> 00:38:24,079
I guess the moon yet with Pragmata, and it just

812
00:38:24,199 --> 00:38:24,599
hid me.

813
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 3: Oh go ahead, dan oh No, I was gonna say,

814
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:27,880
they make it easy if you want to do that,

815
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,480
where it's like it's it's so easy to go back to, like, Okay,

816
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,320
this place, I have three out of five of these boxes.

817
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,119
I'll just work back there immediately. Very it's a very

818
00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:35,440
fun one.

819
00:38:36,639 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: And I on top of Diana and Hughes' relationship, like

820
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,360
I like that it doesn't get too muddy with introducing

821
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,719
other characters, and I like that Cabin is just stuck

822
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,840
there in your little shelter and doesn't do too much.

823
00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:53,679
He's charming enough. And then when you get more training

824
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,840
missions because you find the broken cabins in.

825
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,559
Speaker 3: The world, I feel bad, my little struble and there's

826
00:38:59,599 --> 00:39:01,400
like a spar some stuff like that, and you seems

827
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:02,239
like a poor little guy.

828
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 1: Yeah for him, uh oh right. Moving on from Pragmata.

829
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,239
We have kept Jeff Grubb's seat open and he is

830
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:17,079
not replaced, But Jeff Bakalar, you have been playing Replaced.

831
00:39:18,039 --> 00:39:19,039
Speaker 3: Yes, I certainly have.

832
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,559
Speaker 4: I owe it to myself to play some of this game,

833
00:39:23,639 --> 00:39:27,039
because I've been thinking about it on and off for

834
00:39:27,159 --> 00:39:30,960
what feels like the better part of five years or so.

835
00:39:31,039 --> 00:39:34,119
I mean, my gosh, when did they first debut this thing?

836
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,039
I can't even remember. I always remember it was like

837
00:39:37,079 --> 00:39:43,400
an Xbox thing, like some sort of showcase or whatever

838
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,400
it is. And obviously you know it launched on game Pass,

839
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:52,960
so so there's that connection following through. Replaced is finally out.

840
00:39:53,039 --> 00:39:56,239
It is on game Pass like I said it is,

841
00:39:56,679 --> 00:39:59,840
and again, uh, we can all agree. This game trailer

842
00:40:00,159 --> 00:40:04,440
real well like what not many games trailer as well

843
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,519
as a game like this for folks at home.

844
00:40:06,559 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 1: This is like the two D cyberpunk Blade Runner that's

845
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:10,840
looking that's right.

846
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 4: It is a nineteen eighties sort of alternate history cyberpunk,

847
00:40:20,119 --> 00:40:26,960
sort of pixely side scroller where you play as the

848
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:32,840
body of the return No no, no, stay with me.

849
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:37,519
You play as a body that is being controlled by

850
00:40:37,559 --> 00:40:45,000
an a I after some sort of military experiment goes

851
00:40:45,039 --> 00:40:51,880
haywire and I believe the world is left like I radiated. Okay,

852
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,360
and that's the setup. Like you say, it's like that

853
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,960
two point five D side scroller, So it's a three

854
00:40:58,119 --> 00:41:00,400
D world, but you're sort of only moving through single

855
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,519
plane in it. You do get to go up and

856
00:41:02,559 --> 00:41:05,920
down stairs in the foreground in the background, which adds

857
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,280
a little bit of dimensionality to it, but that is

858
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:14,440
the sort of the broad strokes of the gameplay. I'll

859
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,119
say this before we get into like what I actually

860
00:41:16,159 --> 00:41:19,239
think about. This is one of the most visually strikingly

861
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:25,159
impressive games I've seen in many many years. Nothing looks

862
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,280
like this. A lot of games try to do a

863
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,239
sort of visual storytelling kind of thing, a visual style

864
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:35,199
that chips away this, but this is the most realized

865
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:41,719
and well executed hybrid of that. Pixel y with tilt shifty,

866
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,559
with like real world assets as well or real photo

867
00:41:45,639 --> 00:41:50,039
realistic assets as well, incredible stuff. Nothing looks like this again.

868
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,800
Art direction is superb, the character designs are super compelling.

869
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,480
It is truly like unlike anything I've really ever seen.

870
00:41:59,519 --> 00:42:00,519
Speaker 5: There is combat.

871
00:42:00,639 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 4: It is basically like Arkham Arkham style. Right where you

872
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:10,880
are dodging some attacks countering others. There is not a

873
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:15,679
combo counter, but you do gain the ability. You find

874
00:42:15,679 --> 00:42:18,800
a weapon and that becomes like a it's a gun,

875
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,400
but you use it as a baton until you unlock

876
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,480
the ability to like use your attack melee attacks to

877
00:42:25,639 --> 00:42:29,239
earn the right to shoot one bullet right, So like you,

878
00:42:29,519 --> 00:42:33,159
your combos don't get counted, but they are used to

879
00:42:33,159 --> 00:42:36,519
sort of fill up this gun icon, and once you

880
00:42:36,599 --> 00:42:40,079
max out that your character can shoot, and it's a

881
00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:43,480
pretty devastating blast when you when you when you earn

882
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:48,559
the right to shoot. So here's so that's I think

883
00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:52,440
the combat is well executed enough. I find that enjoyable.

884
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:57,320
What I'm struggling to really stay jacked in on is

885
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:03,800
the kind of expositional, raggy storytelling that this game is doing.

886
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:10,119
And I wish I wish the storytelling delivery matched the chops,

887
00:43:10,119 --> 00:43:13,079
the visual chops that the game this sort of sort

888
00:43:13,119 --> 00:43:17,320
of has it in my opinion, wastes the time very

889
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:22,519
slowly dragging through unskippable dialogue and you have to read

890
00:43:22,559 --> 00:43:24,760
a lot and that's okay, but there's no way to

891
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:28,079
advance it, and game seems like it wants you to really,

892
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,440
you know, really make a meal out of every dialogue

893
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:38,559
interaction that's going on. Some dialogue is fast forwardable and

894
00:43:38,639 --> 00:43:41,239
kind of skippable, which you will want to do because

895
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,719
you can read much faster than the words are appearing

896
00:43:44,199 --> 00:43:47,159
on screen. But like I said, it is, yeah, it's

897
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,239
it's it's a little rough, and there is a pace

898
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:49,920
to it that is.

899
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,800
Speaker 3: Just I don't know, it's just a little just a little.

900
00:43:53,519 --> 00:43:55,800
Speaker 4: Too sluggish for me. I wonder if that's a thing

901
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,480
that they maybe kind of patch in and I don't know,

902
00:43:58,519 --> 00:44:00,400
maybe a little bit of feedback, who knows. So again,

903
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,400
it's it's the developer's decision to kind of like position

904
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,679
it that way. So I think that's fine, right, and

905
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:08,960
that's what they want. But it does feel like a

906
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:13,320
bit of a slog. But again, like visually speaking, like

907
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,719
there's it's an incredible The animations in the game are

908
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,360
really incredible because the characters themselves, they are not a

909
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,719
lot of pixels, but they have this realistic sort of

910
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,639
flow and body movement to them that are that is

911
00:44:25,679 --> 00:44:26,559
really really cool.

912
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

913
00:44:28,639 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 4: So the AI is named Reach and your body that

914
00:44:32,519 --> 00:44:35,159
you play is named Warren, and there is a lot

915
00:44:35,159 --> 00:44:39,559
of like self dialogue between your your character and reach

916
00:44:39,679 --> 00:44:42,719
the AI, and it's mostly you the AI talking to

917
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,039
you and you just sort of listen and the AI

918
00:44:45,199 --> 00:44:48,119
is controlling you, so like you'll, you know, you'll murder

919
00:44:48,159 --> 00:44:49,719
like a bunch of gang members in the A is

920
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,880
like I'm sorry, Warren, I had to do that.

921
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:54,199
Speaker 5: We had to kill all these people.

922
00:44:54,679 --> 00:44:54,800
Speaker 3: Uh.

923
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 4: So there's that, but yeah, it's I think, you know,

924
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,760
I think the story is the story is not really

925
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,400
grabbing me, but I do think the way it is presented,

926
00:45:07,159 --> 00:45:10,280
uh and the kind of like all the other things

927
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,519
that that that make up the parts of this game

928
00:45:12,559 --> 00:45:15,719
are probably what's gonna keep me hooked in and kind

929
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:18,599
of see it through to the end. It's got an

930
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:23,679
incredible sound design, like really really awesome detail to attention

931
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:29,519
to detail. There such a really intoxing energy, intoxicating, sorry

932
00:45:29,639 --> 00:45:34,039
energy to the whole thing. I just wish the story

933
00:45:34,119 --> 00:45:35,800
was a little bit more kind of special, a little

934
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,119
more important, you know.

935
00:45:38,679 --> 00:45:41,199
Speaker 1: So it's not like a Metroid Venous style at all.

936
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,719
You're just like going from level to level or is

937
00:45:44,039 --> 00:45:45,559
there anything open world?

938
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,159
Speaker 4: As far as I can tell, there's not much of

939
00:45:49,199 --> 00:45:52,679
that mechanic there in the game. There is a couple

940
00:45:53,199 --> 00:45:55,400
you know, you do eventually reach this sort of like

941
00:45:55,800 --> 00:46:00,239
dystopian refugee town and you're meant to go around kind

942
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,599
of ask some of the people in there, like, hey,

943
00:46:02,599 --> 00:46:04,519
what's your deal? Can I do something for you? There's

944
00:46:04,519 --> 00:46:08,679
a couple fetch quests peppered in throughout that experience, but

945
00:46:09,559 --> 00:46:12,159
it is just you know, and like so, you know,

946
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:16,239
the first ninety minutes or so, you know, you're just

947
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,440
doing the left to right sort of thing for what

948
00:46:18,599 --> 00:46:23,800
feels like forever, and none of that gets really impressively

949
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,199
complicated or fun. The puzzle it's very very very light

950
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,920
puzzle solving to the extent that you're just sort of

951
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,320
like moving. It's that saying, like move this to the

952
00:46:32,559 --> 00:46:34,199
edge just so you can climb up to the wall.

953
00:46:34,199 --> 00:46:34,679
Speaker 5: And it's like.

954
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 4: You're just gonna have to start off with something a

955
00:46:39,519 --> 00:46:44,639
little bit more cerebral there for me. But again, I

956
00:46:44,639 --> 00:46:48,960
think the style this thing is dripping with such distinct

957
00:46:49,039 --> 00:46:51,880
and impressive style that it's probably enough to get me

958
00:46:52,039 --> 00:46:53,039
all the way to the end.

959
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:54,599
Speaker 3: I will.

960
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 4: It is opening up where I'm at now, and you

961
00:46:57,039 --> 00:46:59,440
do need like kind of interesting characters. I think the

962
00:46:59,519 --> 00:47:04,199
characters are definitely stronger than the story overall. This one

963
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,239
dude Tempest, who's sort of this like eighties you know,

964
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,639
hair metal dude who drives a a sort of like

965
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,639
Mad Max creation that rides on rails, and you you

966
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,039
have to, you know, do some missions with this guy.

967
00:47:17,119 --> 00:47:21,119
It's yeah, I think I think there's a I think

968
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,280
all the points were just sort of dumped into the

969
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,239
style of this game, and maybe some were not pumped

970
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,559
into the kind of moment to moment run around. So

971
00:47:31,199 --> 00:47:33,039
we'll see how it goes. I I do feel like

972
00:47:33,079 --> 00:47:36,480
I'm going to finish this. I've I've heard it's not

973
00:47:36,559 --> 00:47:40,079
incredibly long, so that's definitely a plus at this point

974
00:47:40,119 --> 00:47:44,239
for me. But yeah, that's replaced, you know, a little

975
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,000
bit of a disappointment, I think, so far from me.

976
00:47:46,039 --> 00:47:49,719
But again, you it's honestly worth the price of admission

977
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,440
just to see what this freaking thing looks like, because

978
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:52,800
it is tremendous.

979
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:59,760
Speaker 1: Speaking about tremendous this this tremendous father right here already.

980
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,039
Back on the podcast, Jesus Age christ A, School's not far.

981
00:48:03,159 --> 00:48:05,599
Speaker 3: She's back. She's chilling, Greb.

982
00:48:05,639 --> 00:48:08,280
Speaker 1: We talked about Pragmata very briefly. You did a launch

983
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,920
of a class Friday. Anything you want to share about

984
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,800
PRAGMANA or if you dug deeper into it.

985
00:48:14,679 --> 00:48:18,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've played what I've played on the launch. Look,

986
00:48:18,639 --> 00:48:21,760
I had to play some other games, but what I

987
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,159
played there was excellent.

988
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:23,800
Speaker 3: It is.

989
00:48:24,079 --> 00:48:27,320
Speaker 2: It is just a well crafted game. They knew what

990
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,119
they were going for, they deliver on it. It's got

991
00:48:30,159 --> 00:48:35,280
a ton of style. I do love the characters, their banter,

992
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:39,920
their conversation, the relationship very authentic, feels very real.

993
00:48:40,159 --> 00:48:41,280
Speaker 3: And then it's not.

994
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 2: Just feels real, it's like, oh, it's also interesting.

995
00:48:44,559 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 3: I think that the rewards.

996
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,639
Speaker 2: That they give you sort of the loop of hey,

997
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:50,719
go to this next checkpoint, and then once get to

998
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,679
that checkpoint, you can return to the hub and we're

999
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:54,440
gonna give you a chance to upgrade and get some

1000
00:48:54,519 --> 00:48:56,840
cool goodies, and those goodies also have their own related

1001
00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:01,480
upgrades associated with them or currency. It's just yeah, it's

1002
00:49:01,519 --> 00:49:03,360
a it's a video game, ass video game that has

1003
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,880
all of the extras stapled on top of it in

1004
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:10,800
terms of style, character, storytelling, uh, music, just general vibes

1005
00:49:11,159 --> 00:49:13,679
that elevates it above just being a video game ass

1006
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:16,159
video game, not that that would be some shame. Yeah,

1007
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:20,320
just another Capcom win. I'm just so, I'm really infatuated

1008
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:21,280
with what I've played so far.

1009
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,519
Speaker 1: It makes me nervous for Onny Musha because then it

1010
00:49:24,559 --> 00:49:28,119
would just be like one of the best years for Capcom, right.

1011
00:49:28,079 --> 00:49:31,280
Speaker 5: They got.

1012
00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:33,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, they said a month or anything with.

1013
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 5: No just this year, so probably later, probably later this year.

1014
00:49:36,639 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: Well, let's keep things in the Capcom world. Because Mike Manatti,

1015
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,360
you have been playing Resident Evil two? Is this the remake?

1016
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 3: You've been playing?

1017
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:46,960
Speaker 5: No, sir, this is the PlayStation one.

1018
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:49,039
Speaker 3: Wow.

1019
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, been in the big resume mood lately, obviously

1020
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:57,119
since Requiem came out. And I know I played Resumel zero.

1021
00:49:57,559 --> 00:49:58,519
What's a funny jan.

1022
00:49:58,679 --> 00:50:01,280
Speaker 3: I just see Kayla booing in the chests.

1023
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:06,400
Speaker 5: It's incredible. But yeah, you know, there's a few of

1024
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:07,880
them I haven't played yet, and one of them is

1025
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,199
the original too. I played the remake a couple of

1026
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:14,079
years ago and loved it too. Is supposed to be

1027
00:50:14,079 --> 00:50:16,599
an all timer game to something. At the time I

1028
00:50:16,639 --> 00:50:21,280
da'tven consider playing because I was tower these games. There's

1029
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,119
that the games always just seemed to timiding. I always

1030
00:50:23,119 --> 00:50:25,440
assumed that they were like the hardest games ever for

1031
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:28,960
some reason as well. Right, so it's fun to could

1032
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:32,199
go when there finally dig into it started with Claire,

1033
00:50:32,599 --> 00:50:34,840
did the Claire play through, then the Leon play through,

1034
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:40,039
and boy, it's just still awesome. It's still so freaking cool.

1035
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:43,440
It's so much more approachable than I thought it would be.

1036
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,119
If you're weird about Tink controls, boy, that immediately just

1037
00:50:47,159 --> 00:50:49,239
feels good in this game and makes a ton of sense.

1038
00:50:50,159 --> 00:50:54,760
The RPD, the pre runner backgrounds, that stuff still looks awesome,

1039
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,760
and it is like the the A B stuff is

1040
00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,719
cool and it's a bit more intricate here than even

1041
00:51:00,199 --> 00:51:03,440
in the remake in terms of, Okay, you're gonna do

1042
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,679
stuff in the A playthrough with Claire and then Leo's

1043
00:51:05,679 --> 00:51:07,920
gonna have different experiences are kind of to e the

1044
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,639
repercussions of the things Claire did. You're not gonna have

1045
00:51:10,679 --> 00:51:15,280
the same boss fights necessarily even But yeah, it's just like,

1046
00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:18,960
it's weird playing a game after almost thirty years of hype.

1047
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:22,000
And I'm like a big nineteen ninety eight and gaming guy.

1048
00:51:22,119 --> 00:51:24,000
If you've asked me, like, what's the best year for

1049
00:51:24,079 --> 00:51:26,880
video games, I'm like, nineteen ninety eight. We had halfway

1050
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:31,199
and awkward time, Metal Gear, Solid Grinfin Dango, and I'll

1051
00:51:31,199 --> 00:51:33,239
go on and on, and this is this is one

1052
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:34,880
of the games that is brought up and I'm like,

1053
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,679
and that one that I didn't play yet, now I

1054
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:42,480
have played it. It's freaking cool, even like it's funny

1055
00:51:42,519 --> 00:51:44,840
because like the voiceid thing is definitely better than resuvo ones,

1056
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:48,440
but it's still pretty cheesy and also like bizarrely Canadians

1057
00:51:48,599 --> 00:51:50,800
that part of it is Also it's like the one

1058
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:55,000
guy goes yeah, yeah, there's a famous some guy goes sorry, Like.

1059
00:51:58,079 --> 00:51:58,519
Speaker 3: It's just.

1060
00:52:00,119 --> 00:52:02,280
Speaker 5: Directs, right, because in this one, mister X only shows

1061
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:04,800
up in the bleep the b play through, yes, which

1062
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:08,239
is interesting. That's like a different wrinkle there. The game's

1063
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:10,679
got me a couple of times, especially like the first

1064
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:13,360
few hours when I was playing as Claire, I just

1065
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,519
like walked by a window and some plants reached out

1066
00:52:15,599 --> 00:52:17,480
and grabbed me and I freaked out for a moment.

1067
00:52:18,039 --> 00:52:20,400
Then there's the I don't even know how I forgot

1068
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,159
about this. I feel like I knew about this, but

1069
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:26,360
you're like the interrogation room with the one sided mirror.

1070
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:28,920
I'm in there. Then all of a sudden a liquor

1071
00:52:29,039 --> 00:52:31,119
jumped through it and I lost my shit. I freaked

1072
00:52:31,159 --> 00:52:32,679
out there for a moment.

1073
00:52:33,159 --> 00:52:35,280
Speaker 3: But even just the dog that's the dog window moment

1074
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,239
of two, I think, yeah, yeah.

1075
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 5: It's classic. But even just like the the tension because

1076
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,840
of the survival horror stuff. There was a point where

1077
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:44,239
I got my inventory is limited and I had to

1078
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,599
carry a couple of bees with me, so I was like,

1079
00:52:46,639 --> 00:52:49,079
I'm just not gonna take a healing item this time.

1080
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,599
It's gonna be fine. And then of course I get

1081
00:52:51,599 --> 00:52:54,320
beat up a bunch and I have like no health left.

1082
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,360
If something tickles me, I'm gonna die. And I'm like, okay,

1083
00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,440
there's gonna be a safe soon, I'm gonna be fine. Well,

1084
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,320
sure enough, here's cuttinge And now mister X is like

1085
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,119
on this fucking narrow bridge with me, and it's like

1086
00:53:05,159 --> 00:53:08,599
where I need to go. Like my strategy mixed mister

1087
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:10,639
X every time has been just let him hit me

1088
00:53:10,639 --> 00:53:13,840
once and then I'll get by It's okay. I'm like, well, shit,

1089
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:18,079
that's not gonna work. So I'm like, you know, like

1090
00:53:18,159 --> 00:53:20,559
take control jukeig, which you can only juke so much

1091
00:53:20,559 --> 00:53:24,519
because of the lack of strifing and I just kind

1092
00:53:24,519 --> 00:53:26,760
of like start going right, then I go left, and

1093
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,519
I prayed to God somehow mister excited to do the

1094
00:53:29,599 --> 00:53:32,360
longest to wind up ever and it's just kind of

1095
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:38,639
squeeze there, beauty, and it was exhilarating. Yeah, the game

1096
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:42,280
is still so freaking fun, uh steph. Yeah, definitely. Uh

1097
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:45,360
still just one of the best residevils. There's a lot

1098
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,239
of really good Resident Evil. I don't like it quite

1099
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:50,079
as much as the remake, just because the remake has

1100
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,800
it has better puzzles. The puzzles in this game are

1101
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:56,239
kind of simple. A lot of very simple block pushing

1102
00:53:56,280 --> 00:54:00,880
puzzles things like that, and you know, there is something about,

1103
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,519
you know, actually being able to aim at a zombies

1104
00:54:03,599 --> 00:54:06,039
head or leg and do stuff with that. Even though

1105
00:54:06,039 --> 00:54:08,880
like the tank control shooting stuff still feels fine. It

1106
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:11,480
feels good. It works in a game designed for it,

1107
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,119
for sure.

1108
00:54:12,159 --> 00:54:15,159
Speaker 2: And pre rendered backgrounds. I mean, come on, that's pretty cool.

1109
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 5: Your backgrounds are so fucking cool.

1110
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:20,800
Speaker 3: It's awesome for a replay of two remake because I

1111
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:22,679
only played three one because I never played the original

1112
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,280
two and I love to remake, but I did it

1113
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:28,280
as Leon And is it a significantly different thing as Claire.

1114
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,039
Speaker 5: It's just it well it's again in the remake. Yeah,

1115
00:54:32,079 --> 00:54:34,000
good enough, but also you kind of get the sort

1116
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,440
of true ending when you do both of them back

1117
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:38,239
to back. There's a little bit extra at the end

1118
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:40,800
there and it's worse. And that's the case here as well.

1119
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:42,679
And I was kind of a little surprised by how

1120
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:44,960
much it was and I was just I don't know,

1121
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:47,960
it was still exhilarating. Man still still.

1122
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,239
Speaker 3: Has wonder like the steam cloud still has my save

1123
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,840
from bet. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case. Yeah,

1124
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:54,039
it probably does. Mike.

1125
00:54:54,079 --> 00:54:58,199
Speaker 2: Remind me the PlayStation one, one campaign on one disc,

1126
00:54:58,239 --> 00:54:59,440
another campaign on the other disc.

1127
00:54:59,519 --> 00:55:01,800
Speaker 5: Is that how yeah, that's right here? Uh, well my

1128
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,519
one's in there, but yeah, here's my Claire's on discshoes.

1129
00:55:04,519 --> 00:55:06,719
So I try to put disc two in first. But

1130
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,239
as Claire, then Leon would have been here Leons in

1131
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:12,280
my PlayStation two right now. Backwards compatibility, God, is there

1132
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:16,039
anything better than these PlayStation cases that can hold more

1133
00:55:16,079 --> 00:55:16,639
than one disc?

1134
00:55:18,119 --> 00:55:18,760
Speaker 3: Big boys?

1135
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 5: Yeah? Like, oh, I had this really weird moment where

1136
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:26,199
I was playing the game and the disc looked pretty good, right,

1137
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:28,599
I had no issues, no startering. Then I was in

1138
00:55:28,639 --> 00:55:31,039
a cut scene and the camera's just stuck on this

1139
00:55:31,039 --> 00:55:34,880
one character and then mid sentence had just stopped. I

1140
00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,280
was like, oh, that's not good, and like the music's

1141
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,960
still playing, but she just wasn't going to her next line.

1142
00:55:40,679 --> 00:55:43,280
He's just kind of standing there, like, all right, I

1143
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:44,960
guess I'm parking threes of the game. But let me

1144
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,079
try taking the discout and looking at As I took

1145
00:55:47,079 --> 00:55:49,320
the discout, I kind of wiped it as I wasn't

1146
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:53,880
looking and I was streaming this, the character just moved

1147
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:58,679
her head and then everyone in my chat was freaking out.

1148
00:55:59,039 --> 00:56:03,199
Oh yeah, so I cleared the disc like put the

1149
00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,119
disc back in, but I'm getting ready to restart the game.

1150
00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:07,239
But just putting the disc back in the games like

1151
00:56:07,679 --> 00:56:12,000
and next line and the scene's just going.

1152
00:56:12,119 --> 00:56:13,599
Speaker 3: Real hardware, all right.

1153
00:56:13,639 --> 00:56:16,199
Speaker 5: We just we loaded, we loaded in the next line

1154
00:56:16,199 --> 00:56:18,079
of one and zeros that we're good to go again.

1155
00:56:20,159 --> 00:56:24,039
Speaker 4: Those black discs man, yeah right, but I can anyone

1156
00:56:24,079 --> 00:56:25,159
see anything.

1157
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,679
Speaker 5: So it's really good. Still got a few Classic Redivils.

1158
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,159
I got to play Original three. I gotta play Coveronica,

1159
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:34,920
the Revelations and Dicks, and then.

1160
00:56:35,039 --> 00:56:37,079
Speaker 3: I'll be like any of any of those.

1161
00:56:38,159 --> 00:56:41,639
Speaker 5: Uh no, I don't think.

1162
00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:46,039
Speaker 2: That's interesting, Like it's not gonna hold up. But at

1163
00:56:46,079 --> 00:56:48,559
the time, I remember really enjoying it on the Dreamcast.

1164
00:56:48,679 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, to me, that's.

1165
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,039
Speaker 5: One of those Dreamcast games that people like, loved and

1166
00:56:52,079 --> 00:56:55,159
heaped praise on that. Yes, people kind of don't like anymore.

1167
00:56:55,159 --> 00:56:58,320
It's a talk about it's an echo defender of the future.

1168
00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:01,920
Speaker 2: Like, I bet you're going to like it because with

1169
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:05,400
all the context and with all the really I mean yeah,

1170
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:07,760
with the realization of where that series goes. Yeah, it's

1171
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:09,440
gonna just be a fun little bit. Oh we got

1172
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:10,480
another one of these?

1173
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,239
Speaker 3: Would you do the Dreamcast version? Or they made that

1174
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:14,519
PS two one not long after?

1175
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:17,880
Speaker 5: I have the I have the Dreamcast versions. My brother

1176
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:19,559
had that game. I still have his copy, so I

1177
00:57:19,639 --> 00:57:22,840
kind of just want to play that. And uh for

1178
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:26,000
RESI Evil three the original. I have the GameCube version

1179
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:27,440
of that, so I'll probably play it on there.

1180
00:57:27,559 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, right, people forget it's rare, right, the

1181
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:35,360
GameCube two and three a little bit more expensive. I

1182
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,400
can never see those. Yeah, it was just weird because

1183
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:39,119
the GameCube was so much more powerful. But it's like

1184
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,719
it's not a remake. It's just the old one.

1185
00:57:41,519 --> 00:57:43,480
Speaker 5: Right, because yeah, they remade one. Then they're like, and

1186
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,360
now we're just going to Port two three and co

1187
00:57:45,559 --> 00:57:49,480
Ronka X made sense. It was technically that generation, but boy, just.

1188
00:57:49,679 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 2: Only RI two on GameCube is like one hundred dollars, and.

1189
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:55,599
Speaker 3: They have just been printing so much money with that

1190
00:57:55,719 --> 00:57:58,599
series in so many different ways since the beginning. Basically

1191
00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:01,920
I don't know, put them out again on game sure, whatever.

1192
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,360
Speaker 5: And it's it's work Like, this isn't a series I

1193
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,519
like had much affinity for it when I had to

1194
00:58:06,559 --> 00:58:10,519
review Resume Lake Village, you know, just a few years ago,

1195
00:58:10,599 --> 00:58:12,480
whenever that came out at the time, it's like no

1196
00:58:12,519 --> 00:58:13,960
one else is able to do it. I'm not really

1197
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:16,719
resival guy, but I guess I'll review this one kind

1198
00:58:16,719 --> 00:58:19,039
of like since then, I've slowly just been calling my

1199
00:58:19,119 --> 00:58:21,360
way through it, and it's been a ton of fun,

1200
00:58:21,599 --> 00:58:23,800
So I don't think it's too long scoring jump into

1201
00:58:24,079 --> 00:58:26,480
o G three. It's like just like one of my

1202
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,440
favorite series now, and I'm like even trying to think, like,

1203
00:58:28,639 --> 00:58:31,039
can I name five video game series that I think

1204
00:58:31,079 --> 00:58:33,000
are better than Resident Evil? I don't know.

1205
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:37,559
Speaker 3: Welcome to the party, pal, yeah, if we try good ship,

1206
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:39,800
did you try right now?

1207
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 5: Year Megan my final fantasy. I know you don't agree

1208
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:50,440
about being a fantasy. That's better than it's.

1209
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:56,159
Speaker 3: Better, it's more, Yeah, it's more. No, Yeah, every metal

1210
00:58:56,199 --> 00:58:59,800
your game is an incredible game. Meddle Year never had

1211
00:59:00,239 --> 00:59:03,639
six or even five like every numbered Medalid.

1212
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:08,159
Speaker 2: That's true, that's true. Good point. Yeah, but yeah, it's close,

1213
00:59:08,199 --> 00:59:09,360
it's close between more.

1214
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 5: But there's more resident evils. There's a lot more of them.

1215
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:16,039
It's nice. Sure, it's nice to have more of them, the.

1216
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:17,639
Speaker 3: Three that come to mind right away, or just Marios

1217
00:59:17,639 --> 00:59:18,320
Elda Medal Year.

1218
00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,960
Speaker 5: I'm stretch Troid even though it doesn't rest and fumbles

1219
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,599
the side. What I don't worry about that.

1220
00:59:26,119 --> 00:59:29,119
Speaker 1: Mystical Ninja goim on right, Oh yeah, I forgot about

1221
00:59:29,599 --> 00:59:33,159
on Yeah, yeah, okay, let's just Dynasty Warriors of course,

1222
00:59:33,599 --> 00:59:37,320
of course, of course. Well we can ruminate and marinate

1223
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:40,400
on this more. But let's stick around this time period,

1224
00:59:40,559 --> 00:59:44,320
because Jeff Grebb, you are ready for the you're ready

1225
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:48,239
to blow past spring because you have been looking at

1226
00:59:48,679 --> 00:59:50,639
Summer Kart sixty four.

1227
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Summer Cart sixty four is another one of

1228
00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:58,079
these flash rom card cartridges that you can put on

1229
00:59:58,119 --> 00:59:59,320
your sixty four to read stuff.

1230
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:00,159
Speaker 3: I have.

1231
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 2: I have a damn what's the other one called ever Drive?

1232
01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:05,599
I had it never Drive, and it works great, especially

1233
01:00:05,679 --> 01:00:07,559
in the Analog three D. After I got an update,

1234
01:00:07,599 --> 01:00:10,000
everything worked. But the Summer Cart sixty four is the

1235
01:00:10,159 --> 01:00:13,000
preferred one now, and I could tell, like, first of all,

1236
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:17,360
it's open source and relatively affordable. But it's open source,

1237
01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:21,119
it's constantly getting updates, and it has like pretty good

1238
01:00:21,199 --> 01:00:24,159
sixty four d D support, which is not something that

1239
01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:27,039
I have ever really messed around with, especially on a

1240
01:00:27,039 --> 01:00:30,480
real in sixty four hardware. So I got you know

1241
01:00:30,519 --> 01:00:35,480
that Myriat shut down recently, which was the big repository.

1242
01:00:34,719 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 3: Of all these ROMs, and people were downloading stuff.

1243
01:00:37,679 --> 01:00:41,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeahs as I've been told by nefarious individuals.

1244
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 3: Criminals, criminals have told us.

1245
01:00:44,679 --> 01:00:46,719
Speaker 2: So I talked to those criminals and they had me

1246
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:50,199
some translated patched in sixty four sixty four d D ROMs,

1247
01:00:50,599 --> 01:00:52,639
and I got that loaded up on the Summer Cart

1248
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,280
and it was really easy to get that thing patched

1249
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,679
up and updated to its most recent stuff. That also

1250
01:00:57,719 --> 01:00:59,960
gave me an excuse to update the Analog three D two,

1251
01:01:00,039 --> 01:01:04,159
its most recent firmware, which supports the Nintendo Switch in

1252
01:01:04,199 --> 01:01:08,000
sixty four controller, which is fantastic. Yes, so yeah, got

1253
01:01:08,039 --> 01:01:11,079
all that going and booted up a dose in the

1254
01:01:11,159 --> 01:01:12,280
Giant missed around with that.

1255
01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:13,639
Speaker 5: For a little bit, as you do.

1256
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 2: I booted up yeah, SimCity sixty four, which is a

1257
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,519
sixty four D D game. Yeah, and it's like this

1258
01:01:19,559 --> 01:01:21,400
is like and like it was great. I boot up

1259
01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:23,559
SI sim City sixty four for the sixty.

1260
01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:27,679
Speaker 3: Four D D D DDD D. Yeah, sixty four d D.

1261
01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:31,280
Speaker 2: And the first character that pops up is mister Wright,

1262
01:01:31,719 --> 01:01:34,239
you know, the character from the SimCity for Super Nintendo.

1263
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,360
And he shows up in links Awakening and stuff like

1264
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:39,880
that where his friend does Mister Left does That's right.

1265
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:42,599
And it was like, oh, yeah, this is one of

1266
01:01:42,639 --> 01:01:44,639
those things where as a kid, the sixty four D

1267
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:48,000
D was this a mythical thing that was going to

1268
01:01:48,119 --> 01:01:50,320
change the sixty four that I loved so much, and

1269
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,119
it was finally going to deliver on the promises of

1270
01:01:52,119 --> 01:01:54,760
what people are getting with CD based systems. And it

1271
01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:56,760
never came out. It got canceled. It came out in Japan,

1272
01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,320
but it never came out here. And I've never after

1273
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:01,960
all these years, after like looking forward to it for

1274
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,320
so long, never really messed around with it, and getting

1275
01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,599
to see it's like, yeah, these are pretty much just

1276
01:02:06,639 --> 01:02:09,599
still Nintendo sixty four games. Like there's some stuff happening here,

1277
01:02:09,599 --> 01:02:11,960
but none of the promise was really delivered on because

1278
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,480
the thing just didn't take off. It didn't have any

1279
01:02:14,559 --> 01:02:18,760
support whatsoever. So there's like seven games, and yet it's like, oh, yeah,

1280
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:21,119
you could see the glimpses of the future of these

1281
01:02:21,119 --> 01:02:24,280
games eventually coming out on GameCube, like Animal Crossing or

1282
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,119
whatever and getting a completely different take on it. I

1283
01:02:27,119 --> 01:02:29,199
don't think Animal Crossing was a sixty four D D game,

1284
01:02:29,239 --> 01:02:29,880
but yeah.

1285
01:02:29,719 --> 01:02:31,079
Speaker 3: Still yeah.

1286
01:02:31,119 --> 01:02:34,519
Speaker 2: The Summer Chart is very well made, works really well,

1287
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,719
very basic, but everything's presented very well where it's here's

1288
01:02:38,119 --> 01:02:41,800
a simple menu system. It has a ton of customization

1289
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,000
features that you can access from the on screen display

1290
01:02:45,039 --> 01:02:46,920
the on screen menu, so you don't have to do

1291
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:48,559
stuff on your computer and then take.

1292
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:49,159
Speaker 3: It back over there.

1293
01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:52,639
Speaker 2: It's just really well thought out, and I see now

1294
01:02:52,719 --> 01:02:56,079
why people recommend it as the go to cartridge if

1295
01:02:56,079 --> 01:02:57,800
you want to just have all your n sixty four

1296
01:02:57,840 --> 01:02:58,679
games on one thing.

1297
01:02:58,719 --> 01:03:01,480
Speaker 3: It's really well done. So yeah, highly recommend. It's got

1298
01:03:01,519 --> 01:03:04,039
the fantastic colors. I got the blue US and one.

1299
01:03:04,079 --> 01:03:06,159
That's fine, yeah, because I got it because initially with

1300
01:03:06,159 --> 01:03:08,559
the Analog three D, the ever drive wouldn't work on it,

1301
01:03:08,599 --> 01:03:10,800
and that first week yeah, and like yeah, and immediately

1302
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:12,400
they had at work. But it's like, well, no, I

1303
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:14,800
just have this thing and it is. It's a solid one.

1304
01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:17,360
I like it for sure, the d D stuff. I

1305
01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:21,840
remember when they were first showing Madora's mask screenshots and magazines, yes,

1306
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:24,119
and they were calling it like, you know, like Zelda

1307
01:03:24,159 --> 01:03:26,400
sixty four to two or whatever, and they were just, yeah,

1308
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:27,719
you're gonna have to buy this new thing. It's like

1309
01:03:27,719 --> 01:03:29,559
a two hundred dollars add on for the sixty four.

1310
01:03:29,599 --> 01:03:31,559
And I would look at these screenshots and it just

1311
01:03:31,719 --> 01:03:34,719
looks like, yeah, Okarina, Like what the fuck? Well no,

1312
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:36,960
it's got this whole clock thing and all that. But

1313
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,039
then it just worked on sixty fours. Well what were

1314
01:03:39,039 --> 01:03:40,199
we trying to do? Right?

1315
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:42,800
Speaker 2: I remember like one story about it, and it must

1316
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:44,400
have been like talking to someone at Nintendo.

1317
01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,079
Speaker 3: You know how these products get like blown up.

1318
01:03:46,079 --> 01:03:48,960
Speaker 2: The idea was like you can have persistent worlds where

1319
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:51,639
you pick up an object and then you drop it

1320
01:03:51,679 --> 01:03:54,000
on the ground and you come back a year later

1321
01:03:54,039 --> 01:03:56,280
and it's still there on the ground because the system

1322
01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:58,480
holds it into memory, because you can rewrite to these

1323
01:03:58,559 --> 01:04:01,440
these disk cartridges and stuff. And I'm like, Okay, that

1324
01:04:01,599 --> 01:04:03,320
sounds cool. And it's like, I don't know why I

1325
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:04,920
was so excited about that, but I was.

1326
01:04:05,079 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 3: But then fast forward to like Breath the Wild, and

1327
01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:08,199
you still have to do a blood moon thing to

1328
01:04:08,239 --> 01:04:09,119
take care of that, you know.

1329
01:04:09,199 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 1: Yes, lovely, lovely, Well, boys, I'm almost ready for the

1330
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:21,599
summer because I just I just want to like kick back,

1331
01:04:22,719 --> 01:04:27,559
go to a beach, perhaps you know, be friend or

1332
01:04:27,599 --> 01:04:29,039
you know, hang out with you all on a beach.

1333
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:34,599
Maybe run into the likes of perhaps Hai Hachi Apollo Creed.

1334
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:41,920
Maybe go to Cocaine Mountain and visit James Brown and

1335
01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:46,199
right right, not his ghost but his ghost friend.

1336
01:04:46,519 --> 01:04:49,079
Speaker 3: His friend's a little ghost pet. Yeah, his little ghost pet.

1337
01:04:49,079 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 5: Pizza.

1338
01:04:49,679 --> 01:04:50,920
Speaker 3: Yeaah u pizza.

1339
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,679
Speaker 1: Jeff hasn't been able to stop tweeting or posting about

1340
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:58,559
Ugu pizza. Just him just go and again, scanned all

1341
01:04:58,599 --> 01:05:01,079
over the place. Folks, we're talking about to Adaci living

1342
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:05,559
the dream and we're specifically referencing Dan's Island and we

1343
01:05:05,639 --> 01:05:08,079
had a very fun quick look. I suggest you go

1344
01:05:08,199 --> 01:05:11,159
check out but Grub you've been playing it. I believe

1345
01:05:11,199 --> 01:05:14,239
the Gimmicks have also been playing at a bunch. I've

1346
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:18,159
fired it up. It's just a happy, fun times gang.

1347
01:05:18,199 --> 01:05:21,440
It's just so fucking goofy it is.

1348
01:05:22,039 --> 01:05:24,920
Speaker 2: I think it might be a perfect game for kids

1349
01:05:25,599 --> 01:05:30,079
seven to eleven in that range, especially so Emmy's nine

1350
01:05:30,239 --> 01:05:34,239
and because of her vision and some other issues, she

1351
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:37,159
struggles with reading, and this game is such a good

1352
01:05:37,199 --> 01:05:41,079
tool for that, specifically because everything that she puts into

1353
01:05:41,119 --> 01:05:43,559
the game, it can read back to her. Oh so

1354
01:05:43,599 --> 01:05:46,199
it's like if she gets the spelling wrong, it's like, oh,

1355
01:05:46,199 --> 01:05:49,000
what's going on here? And she's almost asking for no

1356
01:05:49,079 --> 01:05:51,079
help playing this game whatsoever. I'll have a lot of

1357
01:05:51,119 --> 01:05:53,960
games like this where like, Okay, they're going to really

1358
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:55,960
be into it, and then a lot of it is

1359
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:58,360
and this is Minecraft, this is everything it is. Every

1360
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:01,679
twenty to thirty minutes, there's something else they need help with.

1361
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:04,000
These games are more complicated than you would think. They

1362
01:06:04,079 --> 01:06:06,760
want to figure this stuff out, but it's just out

1363
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:08,360
of their grasp. In a lot of they don't have

1364
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:10,800
the built in sort of fundamental so playing games for

1365
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:14,159
twenty years that we all have that is not Tomodacci Life,

1366
01:06:14,199 --> 01:06:16,519
Tomodacci Life. They have both of them. It's seven and

1367
01:06:16,639 --> 01:06:20,639
nine have been playing pretty autonomously for the last four

1368
01:06:20,719 --> 01:06:23,360
or five days, almost as much as they possibly can get.

1369
01:06:23,239 --> 01:06:26,280
Speaker 3: Their hands on. It's are they staring an island because

1370
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:28,360
it's not like you're not playing it, so they just

1371
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:29,239
have their own islands.

1372
01:06:29,239 --> 01:06:33,039
Speaker 2: I'm in for two copies, Dan, Yeah, absolutely.

1373
01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:35,440
Speaker 3: You can't do the family thing is you can like lend,

1374
01:06:35,519 --> 01:06:36,840
but then you couldn't play at the same time.

1375
01:06:36,719 --> 01:06:38,400
Speaker 2: Only one person at a time, So they will sit

1376
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:41,360
next to each other and both have their own islands,

1377
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,599
and they're kind of just doing They're doing their own things.

1378
01:06:43,599 --> 01:06:47,440
But they are using every available feature. They're going into

1379
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:51,039
the palette houses and making stuff. They've made little pets

1380
01:06:51,079 --> 01:06:53,840
for their characters. They are They're just they're using it

1381
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:56,280
all and I'm just kind of blown away. But by

1382
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:59,079
like they've needed very very very little help here.

1383
01:06:59,119 --> 01:07:01,039
Speaker 3: Cool have they done any of the because there is

1384
01:07:01,599 --> 01:07:03,480
there's not a lot of online stuff. There's like not

1385
01:07:03,639 --> 01:07:06,559
any real sharing or anything. There's not really online play.

1386
01:07:06,639 --> 01:07:09,360
But there is that local you can like share items

1387
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:11,559
you've made, me's things like that. Have they messed around

1388
01:07:11,559 --> 01:07:12,000
with that at all?

1389
01:07:12,239 --> 01:07:15,000
Speaker 2: So they they just discovered that this morning, or maybe

1390
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:17,239
it was yesterday and so they haven't. But they on

1391
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:19,639
the school ride when I was taking to the school this morning,

1392
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:21,840
they were talking to each other and Emma it's like,

1393
01:07:22,039 --> 01:07:25,719
I made Rainbow Surprise, which is one of the dessert

1394
01:07:26,039 --> 01:07:27,760
the desserts that she made, which is just a cake

1395
01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,280
that is colored like a rainbow. And ADDIE's like, I

1396
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:32,159
want that, and she's one of that since they started

1397
01:07:32,199 --> 01:07:34,079
playing the game. It's one of the first things Emmy made.

1398
01:07:34,119 --> 01:07:35,480
And he's like, I'll send it to you when we

1399
01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:38,559
got home from school today. ADDIE's so excited. So yeah,

1400
01:07:38,599 --> 01:07:42,760
they're using every single feature here. And I've been paying

1401
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:47,559
attention to the Tomadacci Life reddit, which is surprisingly popular.

1402
01:07:47,599 --> 01:07:49,840
People have been on there for a long time, thousands

1403
01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,159
of users all the time, and there is a little

1404
01:07:52,199 --> 01:07:54,880
bit of a disappointment of some of the features that

1405
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:59,000
are missing. Some of the musical aspect, there's some other

1406
01:07:59,039 --> 01:08:02,400
stuff like quirky questions. There's things missing that we're in

1407
01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:06,079
Tomodacci Life for the three DS that aren't here.

1408
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:08,280
Speaker 3: Which you can see those features on Mary Me Tomadauci,

1409
01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:10,320
a premium show we're making with Abby Russells. She's and

1410
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:12,079
we've seen a lot of quirky questions and stuff on

1411
01:08:12,119 --> 01:08:14,320
that show exactly. We've seen a lot of that stuff.

1412
01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:16,159
Speaker 2: It's like, oh yeah, So, I mean, is this one

1413
01:08:16,159 --> 01:08:19,439
of those times where Nintendo's kind of like phoning it in?

1414
01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:21,560
And I don't think that's what's happening here. I do

1415
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:23,279
get the hunch that they have a lot of this

1416
01:08:23,319 --> 01:08:24,960
stuff lying in wait and they're going to update it,

1417
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,720
but that's no excuse. What is here is a really

1418
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,760
solid game. I think the worlds feel very alive. The

1419
01:08:31,119 --> 01:08:35,439
mees are like much They have a lot more internal

1420
01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:38,279
lives of their own where they are just deciding to

1421
01:08:38,319 --> 01:08:40,560
do stuff and you don't have to force everything and

1422
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:43,039
they can't they can mingle out in public where that's

1423
01:08:43,079 --> 01:08:45,199
not really a ton. There's not really a ton of

1424
01:08:45,199 --> 01:08:47,760
that in Tomodachci Life for the three DS, and I

1425
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,439
think that aspect of it has just made them be like, Yeah,

1426
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:52,479
this is exactly how I want to play a game,

1427
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:56,439
and Tomodachi Life Living the Dream facilitates that at every turn.

1428
01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,159
So I've barely been able to play it myself because

1429
01:08:59,159 --> 01:09:00,520
they are not stop on it.

1430
01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:02,880
Speaker 3: I was really impressed by like the Island Builder part

1431
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,119
because like I kind of assumed it was going to

1432
01:09:05,199 --> 01:09:07,520
have more requirements in terms of like currency and stuff

1433
01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:08,960
like that, Like you do need to buy like okay

1434
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:10,880
unlocks the bench. Now I have to use this money

1435
01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:12,920
to get a bench, but like you don't have to

1436
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:14,920
buy a lot of stuff, and you're also constantly getting

1437
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:16,920
money in that game, so at any point you can

1438
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,640
just go into that Island Builder and completely reshape. It's

1439
01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:21,680
so easy, just like I'm moving this house over here.

1440
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:23,960
And that's something now that it's out. Is like when

1441
01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:25,680
I was playing it for review, which you can read

1442
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,039
my review on the website, I would make tweaks and

1443
01:09:29,039 --> 01:09:30,439
stuff like that where it's like, all right, I'm gonna

1444
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,279
make this a stretch of beach that Apollo Creed can

1445
01:09:33,359 --> 01:09:35,159
can live on, or I'm going to move this over here.

1446
01:09:35,399 --> 01:09:37,439
This will be the shop district over here. But then

1447
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:40,159
I've started seeing more images online and people like have

1448
01:09:40,359 --> 01:09:44,680
completely rent, like completely changed the initial layout of just

1449
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:47,399
like this big central island with like kind of beach

1450
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:49,680
roads and stuff like that and whole sections of town

1451
01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:51,680
and it's like, oh shit, okay, I guess you really

1452
01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:53,119
can kind of go nuts with that. I want to

1453
01:09:53,159 --> 01:09:53,880
explore that more.

1454
01:09:54,279 --> 01:09:57,880
Speaker 2: It's also really intelligent about it, where when you are

1455
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:01,279
building these new houses as you new me's and they

1456
01:10:01,359 --> 01:10:03,399
move in or like let's say they move in together,

1457
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:04,920
and you're now you got to build a bigger house

1458
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:06,760
so that they have space to live together. So it's like, okay,

1459
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:08,279
I got to have this bigger house, so you're taking

1460
01:10:08,359 --> 01:10:10,880
up more space. It's kind of made my road system

1461
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:13,720
a little bit weird though. Meat will just be like, hey, uh,

1462
01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:15,439
do you want to like build the roads and in

1463
01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:17,720
a way that just looks right and does it look bad?

1464
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:20,520
And you just pay like a nominal fee in the game,

1465
01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:22,760
and we'll just have it done and it's like yeah,

1466
01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,680
you click one button and suddenly it builds a nice

1467
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:29,239
graded road system that just looks natural, and it's oh wow.

1468
01:10:29,239 --> 01:10:30,880
The kids didn't have to like figure that out. The

1469
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,279
game is ready ready to meet them where they're at

1470
01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:36,760
and kind of keep things looking professional and right.

1471
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,399
Speaker 3: It's oh yeah, a preview, it's like, hey, I was thinking,

1472
01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:40,880
here's kind of what I was picturing and it's like

1473
01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:42,720
there's the road systems, like you just hit this button

1474
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:43,960
for forty bucks and you're good.

1475
01:10:44,279 --> 01:10:44,760
Speaker 5: That's awesome.

1476
01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:45,039
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1477
01:10:45,159 --> 01:10:48,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's fantastic. So yeah, just very happy with it.

1478
01:10:48,319 --> 01:10:50,399
And again it's exactly how they want to be playing games.

1479
01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:55,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've recreated. I had to rewatch Marry Me Tomadacci

1480
01:10:55,359 --> 01:10:58,560
episode zero. I think that was a creation episode to

1481
01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:02,960
kind of replicate how Abby lovingly crafted all of our mees,

1482
01:11:03,359 --> 01:11:07,520
because I'd like to just post the different social tableaus

1483
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:11,479
that happen on socials. Uh, if y'all have any suggestions

1484
01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:15,000
for other mes you want on the island, Osama bin Laden,

1485
01:11:15,880 --> 01:11:18,600
If you guys have any other suggestions for mes you

1486
01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:19,880
want on the island.

1487
01:11:20,279 --> 01:11:24,920
Speaker 2: The first one I tell you what I haven't been

1488
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:27,600
able to play yet my island. You know the scene

1489
01:11:27,640 --> 01:11:31,920
from the beginning of a Naked Gun where Frank is

1490
01:11:32,319 --> 01:11:35,319
undercover and he beats up all of the evil leaders.

1491
01:11:35,039 --> 01:11:35,560
Speaker 3: Of the world.

1492
01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:37,399
Speaker 2: I just want to make that scene, but maybe with

1493
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:41,399
Suber instead of Frank Drevin. Okay, yeah, yeah, that's that's

1494
01:11:41,560 --> 01:11:42,399
that's my dream.

1495
01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:47,079

there we go, Hey everybody, it's Tuesday. Jeff Baklor.

1499
01:12:11,399 --> 01:12:13,000
Speaker 2: It's funny because the kids don't do any of that.

1500
01:12:13,039 --> 01:12:15,159
They don't do the famous mend. They don't do uh,

1501
01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:19,920
they don't do It's all just like their own creations,

1502
01:12:20,039 --> 01:12:23,880
like they just have. Yeah, Mike is very muted like you.

1503
01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:26,199
Speaker 5: Okay, I'm just muted.

01:12:26,319 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 3: Was all it was.

1505
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:27,920
Speaker 5: That's all I had nothing to say.

1506
01:12:28,199 --> 01:12:32,119
Speaker 3: Uh, Backlar, Who would you like on Giant Bought My Island?

1507

Speaker 5: Seven of nine for Star Trek Voyager.

1512
01:12:59,600 --> 01:12:59,960
Speaker 3: There you go.

1513
01:13:00,319 --> 01:13:05,560
Speaker 4: Three people all chose Osama bin Laden, and I chose

1514
01:13:06,199 --> 01:13:11,119
High Fidelity. High Fidelity's own John Cusack a terrorist in

1515
01:13:11,159 --> 01:13:14,880
his own right for sure. Yeah yeah, wait he's is there.

1516
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:18,840
There's nothing problematic with John Cusacksack.

1517
01:13:19,079 --> 01:13:22,720
Speaker 5: Oh boy, what did he do?

1518
01:13:23,079 --> 01:13:23,119
Speaker 1: You?

1519
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:26,239
Speaker 3: Did you hear what he was? He's not making any

1520
01:13:26,319 --> 01:13:29,920
movies anymore. There's a there's a reason I love his

1521
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:34,279
sister to Joe Cusack. Can I make a me look

1522
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:36,119
like the twin Towers.

1523
01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:40,159
Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna go take a quick bricky break,

1524
01:13:40,239 --> 01:13:43,159
maybe a longer one, and just examine things that we've

1525
01:13:43,199 --> 01:13:43,880
said today.

1526
01:13:44,319 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 5: Death may not be back.

1527
01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:53,000
Speaker 4: Go pick up your child to bring her back to school.

1528
01:13:53,279 --> 01:13:55,640
Speaker 3: Bring her back, have them call you. We're gonna go

1529
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:57,760
take a bricky break, and maybe we'll be back with

1530
01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:03,800
the news, uh after the Before we get to the news,

1531
01:14:04,079 --> 01:14:05,800
I also just wanted to bring one more thing, a

1532
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:06,600
little show and tell.

1533
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:09,960
Speaker 1: I bought these headphones. I don't know if I like them.

1534
01:14:10,239 --> 01:14:14,600
They're the costs Porta Pros. I got some like, got

1535
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:15,960
some cool pads on them.

1536
01:14:16,079 --> 01:14:17,000
Speaker 5: Are they wireless?

1537
01:14:17,159 --> 01:14:19,079
Speaker 3: Yes, these are wireless, so.

1538
01:14:19,079 --> 01:14:21,119
Speaker 2: I didn't know they made wireless Porter pros. I'll tell

1539
01:14:21,159 --> 01:14:23,199
you what Porter Pros were the first It was fifty

1540
01:14:23,239 --> 01:14:25,720
dollars when I first got them, And it was the

1541
01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:28,600
first time I realized audio could be like really good,

1542
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:30,359
to the point where I was hearing things in like

1543
01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:32,720
Pink Floyd songs and I'm like, oh, I've never heard

1544
01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:34,119
this instrument in this song before.

1545
01:14:34,399 --> 01:14:37,000
Speaker 3: Oh, I should be investing in better headphones.

1546
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:41,000
Speaker 1: If folks at home can like help illuminate me on

1547
01:14:41,039 --> 01:14:44,960
what particularly makes a good headphone. I would like to

1548
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:46,800
know because I'm still on the fence and whether or

1549
01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:47,680
not I like these.

1550
01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:51,399
Speaker 4: Swaggy the wired ones are like like Grub said, they're

1551
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:52,680
very highly regarded.

1552
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:55,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, especially at the price point exactly.

1553
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,399
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1554
01:14:57,439 --> 01:15:04,079
Speaker 1: Anyways, let's get to the news group.

1555
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:09,520
Speaker 3: Thank you janat show.

1556
01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,720
Speaker 2: All right, let's get into the story that broke right

1557
01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:17,000
before we got started here Today Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

1558
01:15:17,079 --> 01:15:19,399
price update starting today.

1559
01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 3: This is a blog post over there.

1560
01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:22,439
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna read the blog post for everybody so

1561
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:25,239
we can all be caught up. Starting today, Game Pass

1562
01:15:25,319 --> 01:15:29,479
Ultimate drops from thirty dollars to twenty three dollars a month.

1563
01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:31,239
Speaker 3: Ooh what a deal right.

1564
01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:34,199
Speaker 2: PC Game Pass will also drop from sixteen to fifty

1565
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,319
to fourteen dollars a month. Prices may vary by region,

1566
01:15:38,199 --> 01:15:41,279
but beginning this year, future Call of Duty titles won't

1567
01:15:41,279 --> 01:15:44,439
be joining Game Pass Ultimate or PC game Pass at launch.

1568
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,399
New Call of Duty games will be added to Game

1569
01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:49,520
Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass during the following holiday

1570
01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,680
season about a year later, while existing Call of Duty titles,

1571
01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:55,680
titles already in the library will continue to be available.

1572
01:15:56,159 --> 01:15:58,800
Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will continue to have access

1573
01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:02,239
to hundreds of games on Xbox console and PC, including

1574
01:16:02,239 --> 01:16:05,359
current Call Duty titles, in game benefits, blah blah, all

1575
01:16:05,399 --> 01:16:06,880
the other stuff. So it's just they're taking Call of

1576
01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:11,279
Duty out and they're charging less. I think that this

1577
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,239
is going to be effective in this moment because that

1578
01:16:13,319 --> 01:16:16,520
last Call of Duty I'm checking for what scientists call

1579
01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:20,840
it sucked shit, yes, and that is going to make

1580
01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:22,800
it kind of a pretty easy decision in this moment

1581
01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:25,159
for people to be like, Okay, this doesn't matter. And

1582
01:16:25,199 --> 01:16:26,560
I think a lot of people who do show up

1583
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:31,039
for game Pass call of Duty either doesn't matter or

1584
01:16:31,079 --> 01:16:34,079
they're already getting game Pass so they have online play

1585
01:16:34,119 --> 01:16:36,000
on Xbox and then they were going to buy Call

1586
01:16:36,039 --> 01:16:37,920
of Duty anyway. So I see why this all makes

1587
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:41,479
sense for Microsoft from a positioning game Pass as best

1588
01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:45,479
they can. But this does sort of break the contract

1589
01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,399
right of You're going to get all of Xbox's first

1590
01:16:48,399 --> 01:16:52,159
party games in game Pass ultimate no matter what, and

1591
01:16:52,199 --> 01:16:54,039
now there is an exception, so it's like, Okay, what

1592
01:16:54,159 --> 01:16:57,239
is this thing really? I guess how much does that matter?

1593
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:00,279
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, It's kind of like how does PlayStation It's

1594
01:17:00,319 --> 01:17:03,479
like instant game catalog or something where it's stant library

1595
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,560
is what you do. Yeah, something like that where it's like, yeah,

1596
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:08,279
you know, it's not saying it's this comprehensive thing. Uh,

1597
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:10,199
but like that was the thing game pas. They used

1598
01:17:10,239 --> 01:17:11,600
to be able to say that, and now it's and

1599
01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:14,359
there's something. There's a tier game Pass that is like that. Now.

1600
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a Select Games and it's like a

1601
01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:19,199
tier down from the what wasn't thirty dollars and it's

1602
01:17:19,199 --> 01:17:20,079
now twenty three dollars.

1603
01:17:20,159 --> 01:17:21,640
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, I mean, not to mention they seem

1604
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:24,000
to have come through quite the bit of trouble to

1605
01:17:24,159 --> 01:17:28,680
acquire a big, old gigantic company just to decouple the

1606
01:17:29,399 --> 01:17:33,560
thing from game Pass. I mean, look, you you you're right, Grub.

1607
01:17:34,079 --> 01:17:37,560
You could not have chose a more strategic moment to

1608
01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:43,159
decouple Call of Duty from game Pass because it was

1609
01:17:43,199 --> 01:17:45,880
so bad last year. So I think that's a that's

1610
01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:51,760
a much easier pill to swallow. I don't know, I yeah,

1611
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,119
And I think your assessment is spot on about like

1612
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,800
most normy game pass people not really giving a crap

1613
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:01,800
about what they're not. Their thing comes with it. They're

1614
01:18:01,840 --> 01:18:04,760
gonna be you know, the the Call of Duty people

1615
01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:06,560
are going to buy that thing, and it's not really

1616
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:10,000
going to matter to them, So I think it really

1617
01:18:10,079 --> 01:18:11,920
what it nets out is like this is probably how

1618
01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:15,199
it should have been the whole time, maybe.

1619
01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:17,640
Speaker 5: Right, Well, it's kind of weird thing, right is I

1620
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:20,399
think maybe Call of Duty was sort of that last

1621
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,239
chip to play of Well, let's see if this grows

1622
01:18:23,279 --> 01:18:26,720
game pass in a substantial way, and it kind of

1623
01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,199
it kind of didn't, and now you're retreating from that,

1624
01:18:29,319 --> 01:18:31,760
and it's it's nice to see the price go down.

1625
01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:34,279
It's novel, especially these days, to see the price for

1626
01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:38,680
anything go down, but it does feel like an admission

1627
01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:42,239
the game pass is never going to grow again, and

1628
01:18:42,279 --> 01:18:44,520
they're gonna keep it around. They're gonna, you know, make

1629
01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:47,600
the money that they can from it. But it almost

1630
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:48,840
sort of feels like the end of the road in

1631
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:49,239
some ways.

1632
01:18:49,399 --> 01:18:52,119
Speaker 2: So it's temporary, right, Like it goes down in price

1633
01:18:52,319 --> 01:18:55,960
now and we know it just floats back up natural time.

1634
01:18:56,520 --> 01:19:00,319
Like we're talking five years here, maybe before where this

1635
01:19:00,319 --> 01:19:03,239
thing is thirty dollars again, like maybe longer than that,

1636
01:19:03,279 --> 01:19:05,119
but at some point it's going to be thirty dollars again.

1637
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:06,039
Speaker 3: This is a.

1638
01:19:06,039 --> 01:19:11,239
Speaker 2: Temporary reprieve in a in a solution to a to

1639
01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:14,000
a problem, but it's not a solution to the problem

1640
01:19:14,039 --> 01:19:16,960
of game pass, which is people do not want to

1641
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:18,880
engage with their game purchases in this way.

1642
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:19,600
Speaker 3: Necessarily.

1643
01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:22,600
Speaker 2: They do still want to own stuff. Getting a Steam

1644
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:26,039
collection is still way more appealing to more people who

1645
01:19:26,079 --> 01:19:29,840
engage in video games than having this sort of game

1646
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:35,680
pass rental idea. So yeah, it's yes, the price going

1647
01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:37,800
down is going to help for some people. I'm sure

1648
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:40,000
it will make some difference, but this is not suddenly

1649
01:19:40,039 --> 01:19:42,000
going to change the fortunes of game pass. I think

1650
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:43,479
that's pretty sentenced doone at this point?

1651
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:44,239
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1652
01:19:44,239 --> 01:19:46,960
Speaker 4: Well so all right, So there is an internal memo

1653
01:19:47,079 --> 01:19:49,960
right that leaked Lewis had last week, in.

1654
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:52,239
Speaker 2: The last couple of weeks yea words, they were having

1655
01:19:52,279 --> 01:19:54,720
serious conversations about doing this exact thing.

1656
01:19:55,159 --> 01:19:58,880
Speaker 4: Right, So, I don't know, like it does seem I

1657
01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:02,720
wonder like where along the sort of line of thought

1658
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:06,680
this was decided. Right, Certainly, this is not a thing

1659
01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:08,680
you'd like figure out in a week or two.

1660
01:20:09,159 --> 01:20:13,199
Speaker 2: I mean, because New Boss as a stamp on things,

1661
01:20:13,239 --> 01:20:15,159
so it's like accelerated. But you're right now, it's this

1662
01:20:15,239 --> 01:20:17,319
is conversation that I bet has been got ongoing for

1663
01:20:17,359 --> 01:20:19,239
a long time, and Nasha Sharma comes in and puts

1664
01:20:19,239 --> 01:20:20,199
her foot down, right.

1665
01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I also and and like you said, like

1666
01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:24,560
it's it's obviously game best can't be like the future

1667
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:25,840
of this business.

1668
01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:28,279
Speaker 5: Model, right, So, like, uh.

1669
01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:31,239
Speaker 4: Everything, every every time something like this happens, a large

1670
01:20:31,239 --> 01:20:33,600
grain of salt is just sort of, you know, floated

1671
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:37,239
along with it, because it's like, how long is this?

1672
01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:39,720
Is this a mechanism to just keep this thing floating

1673
01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:41,720
along for a certain amount of time? What is the

1674
01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:43,279
real sort of big picture here?

1675
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 5: I don't know.

1676
01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:48,039
Speaker 2: Yep, well kind of we'll see what it does. I mean,

1677
01:20:48,079 --> 01:20:50,479
I think it was Jordan Midler on Blue Sky's like,

1678
01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:52,079
now watch this year's call of duty is going to

1679
01:20:52,119 --> 01:20:53,039
be awesome.

1680
01:20:53,359 --> 01:20:57,840
Speaker 5: Right, yeahs be fantastic. Are we saying what that's gonna

1681
01:20:57,880 --> 01:20:59,680
be this time around with modern warfare?

1682
01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:02,880
Speaker 3: I'm sure they are, but I can't remember. I do

1683
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:03,399
not care.

1684
01:21:04,239 --> 01:21:07,560
Speaker 5: Black ops eight, right, this one is supposed to not

1685
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:13,479
be as two, right, just to what it would go

1686
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,600
back to the numbers. There hasn't been a call of

1687
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:18,000
duty six yet, right, just call it that was there?

1688
01:21:18,039 --> 01:21:20,600
Called duty five? Yes, called duty five? World at War

1689
01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:21,439
that is.

1690
01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:23,119
Speaker 3: I don't think no, no, no, no, I don't think the

1691
01:21:23,119 --> 01:21:25,199
five was on the box. I don't think it was

1692
01:21:25,279 --> 01:21:27,920
Call of Duty colon World of War, Mike, look it up.

1693
01:21:28,239 --> 01:21:30,640
I don't think it says five. I played a ton

1694
01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:33,159
of that game. I don't remember that game. I don't

1695
01:21:33,159 --> 01:21:35,159
remember tapping a five in that headline?

1696
01:21:36,399 --> 01:21:40,319
Speaker 4: Do people still regard game pass like? Is the value

1697
01:21:40,319 --> 01:21:41,439
proposition of that whole thing?

1698
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:41,560
Speaker 3: Is?

1699
01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 4: That's still like delivering in a in a meaningful way.

1700
01:21:44,119 --> 01:21:44,479
Speaker 5: It is.

1701
01:21:48,199 --> 01:21:51,039
Speaker 3: You got to pick your battles better, mikey, come on, he's.

1702
01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:54,760
Speaker 5: Had a goddamn five in it. No, they didn't. No.

1703
01:21:55,199 --> 01:21:56,880
Speaker 2: I think you maye think of a vanguard which has

1704
01:21:56,880 --> 01:21:57,760
a V at the beginning.

1705
01:21:58,159 --> 01:21:59,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's there was a five there.

1706
01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:02,640
Speaker 3: Back, I'm gonna get black Ops five out of five,

1707
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:04,279
and I think it was just Cold War, wasn't it.

1708
01:22:04,359 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 5: They don't like the five, there's no five? No, what

1709
01:22:07,039 --> 01:22:08,439
did I make up this fucking five?

1710
01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:08,760
Speaker 1: Wow?

1711
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:11,479
Speaker 5: It is the fifth?

1712
01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:11,840
Speaker 3: One?

1713
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:16,039
Speaker 2: Shit Backlar to answer to answer your question, the meme

1714
01:22:16,239 --> 01:22:19,800
of the best deal in gaming that has flatlined? No one,

1715
01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:22,239
No one talks that way anymore, because, for one, you

1716
01:22:22,279 --> 01:22:24,720
look fucking corny. If you're still saying that. But the

1717
01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:28,279
other one, it's it's just not true, but it's it

1718
01:22:28,359 --> 01:22:30,359
is definitely still one of those things where people can

1719
01:22:30,399 --> 01:22:33,760
sit down do some math and be like I think

1720
01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:35,760
Marino was doing some math in chat a little bit ago,

1721
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:36,760
and he was saying it wasn't worth it.

1722
01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:38,720
Speaker 3: To him at like around two hundred and forty dollars

1723
01:22:39,039 --> 01:22:41,720
a year or whatever it was. Uh, And it's but.

1724
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:44,239
Speaker 2: Some people go, Okay, I'm buying enough games in this

1725
01:22:44,319 --> 01:22:47,159
ecosystem that that does make sense. That is still happening

1726
01:22:47,159 --> 01:22:50,239
to a certain degree, but it's not in the growth

1727
01:22:50,359 --> 01:22:53,439
user acquisition period of they have clearly underpriced this thing

1728
01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:55,600
to get more and more users. They hit their ceiling

1729
01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:58,720
of thirty to thirty five million subscribers, it's not going

1730
01:22:58,760 --> 01:22:59,079
over that.

1731
01:22:59,560 --> 01:22:59,680
Speaker 3: You know.

1732
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,399
Speaker 2: Years ago now, Phil was saying when he was still

1733
01:23:02,479 --> 01:23:05,159
the boss that, uh, this is it's you know, a

1734
01:23:05,199 --> 01:23:07,479
fifteen percent chunk of our business or thirty percent chunk

1735
01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:09,319
of our business, some percentage of our business, and it's

1736
01:23:09,359 --> 01:23:11,520
always going to be there. So he was already saying

1737
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:12,399
that it was flat lining.

1738
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:14,680
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's changed. Cool.

1739
01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:17,079
Speaker 5: That's like, oh, Mike was thinking of Battlefoot, I want

1740
01:23:17,079 --> 01:23:19,600
to be clear about what what I was wrong about,

1741
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:21,920
and I was wrong and Dan was right. Dan was right,

1742
01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:23,760
Dan was right to go ahead, put on your fucking

1743
01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:24,920
soundboard in Son of a Bitch.

1744
01:23:26,319 --> 01:23:26,479
Speaker 3: No.

1745
01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:28,479
Speaker 5: I I just thought that Call of Duty or what

1746
01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:30,800
were which is the fifth Call of Duty? I thought

1747
01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:33,800
it was Call of Duty five with there was.

1748
01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:35,920
Speaker 3: Like the big red one, there were other ones. It

1749
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:38,039
is the main line series.

1750
01:23:38,199 --> 01:23:41,479
Speaker 5: Yea, yes, that's for sure. Maybe maybe magazines were just

1751
01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:43,359
calling it call of Duty five for so long that

1752
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:45,239
I thought that was the thing until I got.

1753
01:23:45,079 --> 01:23:45,640
Speaker 3: A real name.

1754
01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:47,239
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1755
01:23:46,319 --> 01:23:49,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll uh, we'll make us make a clip of that.

1756
01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:53,159
Speaker 3: I think that'll be very funny warning right, yes, yeah,

1757
01:23:53,159 --> 01:23:54,039
well let's get on that.

1758
01:23:54,359 --> 01:23:56,680
Speaker 5: Let's do something else. Let's do the Osama bin Laden things.

1759
01:23:58,000 --> 01:23:59,239
Speaker 3: You just don't have the reference.

1760
01:23:59,239 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 4: The Osama been a big h during the break Oh

1761
01:24:04,039 --> 01:24:07,760
Sama bin Laden single player spin off Splatoon Raiders comes

1762
01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:10,600
to Nintendo Switch to this summer, and they.

1763
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:14,640
Speaker 3: Won't believe who's in it? Quick?

1764
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:17,199
Speaker 5: Is he as quid as her kids up?

1765
01:24:17,279 --> 01:24:21,039
Speaker 3: And it's got tentacles behind that beard. Yeah.

1766
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,239
Speaker 2: I was working out in the gym this morning and

1767
01:24:24,359 --> 01:24:26,239
I was like looking at my phone and I was like,

1768
01:24:26,319 --> 01:24:28,640
what app is this giving me a notification? I was like, oh,

1769
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:32,399
the Nintendo Today app Splatoon Raiders gets its date.

1770
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:34,319
Speaker 3: It is coming July twenty third.

1771
01:24:34,960 --> 01:24:37,319
Speaker 2: They announced it on the Nintendo Today app, something that

1772
01:24:37,399 --> 01:24:40,079
they are wont to do for some reason. Uh, this

1773
01:24:40,319 --> 01:24:44,000
is the single player focused Splatoon Raider Splatoon game. It's

1774
01:24:44,039 --> 01:24:46,039
unfair to call this the single player game because all

1775
01:24:46,119 --> 01:24:48,319
of them have had single player modes, but this is

1776
01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:51,640
focused on single player. I'm I watched that trailer and

1777
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:55,439
I was like, is it my ADHD, my processing or

1778
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:57,640
is it is the trailer just not getting across exactly

1779
01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,880
what kind of game it is. I bet it's the former.

1780
01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:02,239
Uh do you guys have any idea what kind of

1781
01:25:02,319 --> 01:25:02,760
game this is?

1782
01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:06,760
Speaker 3: And watch that? Oh I didn't.

1783
01:25:08,159 --> 01:25:10,199
Speaker 5: There's a fog of war opening up on that map.

1784
01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:13,399
So so in all, and I liked the uh Splatoon

1785
01:25:13,399 --> 01:25:15,800
single player campaigns a lot. They've been really good. Yes

1786
01:25:16,039 --> 01:25:17,840
they're failed, but they've always been kind of like, go

1787
01:25:18,039 --> 01:25:21,479
to this level, and the levels are usually like tubes

1788
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:25,239
floating in space, and it's very structured levels, kind of linear.

1789
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:27,960
Do your low poles, do your shooty thing here? It

1790
01:25:28,119 --> 01:25:31,840
was big, open areas, there was there's you know, there

1791
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:34,199
was a map and kind of like things on the

1792
01:25:34,279 --> 01:25:37,279
map to see. So that was the vibe I was

1793
01:25:37,319 --> 01:25:39,600
getting is that there's maybe not open world, but there

1794
01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:43,600
is a much more openness of some kind going on here.

1795
01:25:45,039 --> 01:25:47,279
Speaker 2: I'll kind of read some of this brief description. In

1796
01:25:47,319 --> 01:25:49,479
this fourth installment of the series, players take on the

1797
01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:54,079
role of a mechanic rating the Spearholite Islands for treasure,

1798
01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:58,479
using mechanical gadgets and ink splattering weapons to fight Salmanids.

1799
01:25:59,079 --> 01:26:01,760
The game will feature return arning characters. Blah blah blah, there's.

1800
01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:03,159
Speaker 3: New amiebo blah blah blah.

1801
01:26:03,239 --> 01:26:06,359
Speaker 2: Platoon Raiders also supports online and local wireless multiplayer for

1802
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,680
up to four players in cooperative play, and it will

1803
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,760
be Yes, it'll be part of the July release, alongside

1804
01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:15,640
another July release, Rhythm Groove, which of course is a

1805
01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:16,399
switch one game.

1806
01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:17,479
Speaker 3: This is a switch to game.

1807
01:26:19,039 --> 01:26:21,039
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I think we still have yet to like

1808
01:26:21,119 --> 01:26:23,039
get the full rundown from them and like what the

1809
01:26:23,119 --> 01:26:25,119
moment to moment will be. But yeah, it does look

1810
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:27,880
like it has open zones. I bet you do kind

1811
01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:31,359
of go out on raids and collect resources, come back

1812
01:26:31,399 --> 01:26:34,279
and upgrade that enables you to go further out into.

1813
01:26:34,119 --> 01:26:35,199
Speaker 3: The open zones.

1814
01:26:35,399 --> 01:26:38,000
Speaker 5: But I think making an contrackson shooter without the kind

1815
01:26:38,039 --> 01:26:40,760
of fun part of the other people being in the matches.

1816
01:26:42,479 --> 01:26:46,000
Speaker 3: I just wouldn't be surprised and wouldn't be surprised.

1817
01:26:46,159 --> 01:26:47,720
Speaker 5: It's like, I want to be optimistic because again, I

1818
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:50,760
like those Splatoon single player campaigns a lot. This is

1819
01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:54,479
clearly a bit different from that. I hope there's still

1820
01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:57,600
something And it's interesting because you know, we already had

1821
01:26:57,680 --> 01:27:00,840
them add another single player campaign to the to the

1822
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:04,319
three with side it's almost a Rogue Light mode that

1823
01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:06,840
was like the more rogue light ish one. It feels

1824
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:08,560
like this almost could just be another one of those

1825
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:11,880
because it's those characters again, it's big Man, Fire and Shiver.

1826
01:27:13,119 --> 01:27:15,600
But yeah, is this a standalone fifty dollars so which

1827
01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:19,600
is budget title these days? Fifty dollars with prices, no,

1828
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:22,399
no multiplayer component asides from the.

1829
01:27:22,439 --> 01:27:24,239
Speaker 3: Co op along with it.

1830
01:27:24,399 --> 01:27:27,720
Speaker 2: So I'm update sarious the multiplayer for three when they

1831
01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:29,279
do that, right, Like, when they when they put this

1832
01:27:29,319 --> 01:27:30,319
game out, they probably have an.

1833
01:27:30,239 --> 01:27:30,840
Speaker 3: Update for three.

1834
01:27:31,279 --> 01:27:33,600
Speaker 5: I mean they updated three when they get a switch

1835
01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:35,439
to edition of it. A little bit, but I don't

1836
01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:37,279
know what else. You update it well and again like

1837
01:27:37,359 --> 01:27:40,119
new comment. Yeah, this isn't necessarily coupled with that though.

1838
01:27:40,159 --> 01:27:42,359
Maybe you in lock things here you can then access

1839
01:27:42,399 --> 01:27:43,159
in there. I'm not sure.

1840
01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:45,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe find excuse me.

1841
01:27:46,319 --> 01:27:48,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had assumed that this was like another one

1842
01:27:48,399 --> 01:27:50,680
of those roguelike modes, but I guess I'm wrong.

1843
01:27:51,399 --> 01:27:53,720
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it being a standalone fifty dollars game

1844
01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:56,159
to me, just it's got to be building on that

1845
01:27:56,199 --> 01:27:57,359
in some significant ways.

1846
01:27:57,439 --> 01:27:59,159
Speaker 3: But I don't know. I think we are.

1847
01:28:00,119 --> 01:28:02,000
Speaker 2: While they are talking about this in Nintendo Today and

1848
01:28:02,039 --> 01:28:04,640
giving it a date. You know, they have this, they

1849
01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:08,239
have Groove, They allegedly might have a Star Fox game

1850
01:28:08,279 --> 01:28:11,000
coming out, even maybe before these games, So there's got

1851
01:28:11,119 --> 01:28:12,800
to be some point where they kind of maybe talk

1852
01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:14,640
about some of this stuff and tell us what to

1853
01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:15,640
expect from all of them.

1854
01:28:15,840 --> 01:28:18,439
Speaker 5: It's strange because I mean, you know, at some point

1855
01:28:19,119 --> 01:28:21,000
before this game comes out, you think there's gonna be

1856
01:28:21,119 --> 01:28:24,800
a direct of some kind. But see, we have just

1857
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:29,279
sort of been getting these Nintendo Today drops in the meantime.

1858
01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:33,000
Speaker 2: And there's not been a like a full real Nintendo direct,

1859
01:28:33,039 --> 01:28:37,119
a traditional directtions a main line direct as they say,

1860
01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:38,640
since September, and.

1861
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:41,960
Speaker 5: There's like you know and again like Platoon Raiders, your

1862
01:28:42,119 --> 01:28:44,159
Yoshi's and your rhythm heave and so I'm not to you.

1863
01:28:44,279 --> 01:28:47,720
That's all well and good people are going to want

1864
01:28:47,720 --> 01:28:50,039
to hear about what the big game is this year,

1865
01:28:50,199 --> 01:28:54,079
if it's that Alkaret Time remake and or more. We

1866
01:28:54,359 --> 01:28:55,920
got to kind of have something to look forward to

1867
01:28:56,079 --> 01:28:56,479
here soon.

1868
01:28:57,319 --> 01:28:59,680
Speaker 2: Uh well, I mean, on that note, a bunch of

1869
01:28:59,720 --> 01:29:01,199
Switch two games are on the way and haven't been

1870
01:29:01,239 --> 01:29:04,199
announced yet. There was a recent flurry of rating board

1871
01:29:04,279 --> 01:29:07,399
updates for both first and third party to Switch to titles.

1872
01:29:07,880 --> 01:29:11,479
One of those games in the ratings flurry was Splatoon

1873
01:29:11,560 --> 01:29:14,479
Raiders got a Peggy seven. At the same time fire

1874
01:29:14,560 --> 01:29:17,039
Emblem Fortunes We've got a Peggy twelve. So it's all right,

1875
01:29:17,119 --> 01:29:18,880
that's ready to come as well, though I think we

1876
01:29:18,920 --> 01:29:21,720
can probably expect that later in the year. But then

1877
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:24,359
there was a bunch of like third party ports and

1878
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,760
other games that got announced one way or another, whether

1879
01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:30,520
that was through the THHQ Nordic website, with a bunch

1880
01:29:30,600 --> 01:29:33,079
of unannounced games pages that we don't know what they are.

1881
01:29:33,239 --> 01:29:35,479
A lot of them probably are ports, and a lot

1882
01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:38,239
of other ports that did get raided, including like Hell

1883
01:29:38,359 --> 01:29:41,880
is Us, Devil May Cry, Five Hunters, Yeah, Devil Hunter edition,

1884
01:29:43,159 --> 01:29:45,600
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, which will now have maybe

1885
01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:48,479
a native version instead of the cloud version, Diablo for

1886
01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:51,720
Lord of Hatred. There's a lot of stuff. These are

1887
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:54,359
the kinds supports that could easily just get announced anywhere,

1888
01:29:54,800 --> 01:29:56,880
but there's enough of them sort of being held back.

1889
01:29:56,920 --> 01:29:58,680
These games, none of them, I don't think, have been

1890
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:01,800
officially announced in any way. That does feel like a

1891
01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,159
lot of these companies holding them back from yet another

1892
01:30:04,199 --> 01:30:06,800
partner direct, another mini direct, maybe a full direct.

1893
01:30:08,039 --> 01:30:10,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's piling up, so I think we can expect

1894
01:30:10,319 --> 01:30:10,920
one soon.

1895
01:30:12,239 --> 01:30:14,920
Speaker 2: Is it separate from a big direct direct in June

1896
01:30:15,039 --> 01:30:17,399
where they kind of have their traditional E three timeframe

1897
01:30:17,439 --> 01:30:19,640
where they do kind of go all out and announce

1898
01:30:19,720 --> 01:30:21,640
what else is coming from them this year? Maybe, or

1899
01:30:21,680 --> 01:30:23,399
maybe these all just show up there, or maybe they

1900
01:30:23,399 --> 01:30:25,039
don't show up in a direct at all. It's hard

1901
01:30:25,079 --> 01:30:28,760
to tell, but it does feel like Nintendo's overdue to

1902
01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:32,079
begin giving us more information about what they what we

1903
01:30:32,119 --> 01:30:36,960
can expect from them later this year. All right, let's

1904
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:41,119
see here, Capcom says Matta Pragmata is off to a

1905
01:30:41,239 --> 01:30:44,680
strong start, with one million sold in its first two days.

1906
01:30:45,039 --> 01:30:48,640
Capcom's new sci fi action adventure, Pragmata, has sold over

1907
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:52,000
one million copies despite being a new ip. It just

1908
01:30:52,039 --> 01:30:54,479
took two days to do so. Capcom credits the success

1909
01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:57,760
to early marketing initiatives like releasing a playable demo and

1910
01:30:57,840 --> 01:31:00,399
a day one launch on the Nintendo switch To. That

1911
01:31:00,640 --> 01:31:03,960
they did say that, and that is curious because it's like, oh,

1912
01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:07,000
the switch to contribute that much to it. Getting over

1913
01:31:07,079 --> 01:31:09,760
a million copies sold in two days sounds like it

1914
01:31:10,119 --> 01:31:13,159
might have. So that is them already maybe building momentum

1915
01:31:13,359 --> 01:31:16,760
off of the positive word amount they built with Resonating Requiem,

1916
01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:19,720
which didn't seem to like just destroy the world on

1917
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:21,560
switch To in terms of its sales, but it did

1918
01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:22,119
well enough.

1919
01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:25,640
Speaker 3: Maybe they're procketing Grace though it runs great against that

1920
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:27,720
is it the Ari engine for Pragmata.

1921
01:31:28,239 --> 01:31:31,640
Speaker 2: It is the moon yep m So, like I think

1922
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:33,600
people are now starting to believe, like, hey, when Capcom

1923
01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:36,039
puts one of those games out on the switch To

1924
01:31:36,359 --> 01:31:38,840
at launch, you can have faith that it's going to

1925
01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:41,560
run well instead of having to like walk on eggshells

1926
01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:43,520
and wait for Digital Foundery to tell you it's all right,

1927
01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:44,800
although they were right there.

1928
01:31:44,720 --> 01:31:47,640
Speaker 3: Doing that right away. Reputation that's awesome exactly.

1929
01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:49,159
Speaker 2: I think it's the kind of thing where it's like

1930
01:31:49,239 --> 01:31:51,880
that if they keep delivering and there's no missteps, that

1931
01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,000
stuff built up over time and a bitefits all these

1932
01:31:54,039 --> 01:31:57,920
third party games, but especially Capcom's, which Capcom has said

1933
01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:01,880
explicitly one of their strategies for this next generation, for

1934
01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:04,680
the current generation we're in, is to support the switch

1935
01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,279
to a lot more So, this is them paying that off,

1936
01:32:07,359 --> 01:32:09,039
and it it paying back toward them as well.

1937
01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:15,600
Speaker 1: I was just gonna look at Capcom's other stuff. I

1938
01:32:15,680 --> 01:32:18,760
didn't realize that Monster Hunter Stories three came out on

1939
01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:22,039
systems other than the switch to or the switch. I

1940
01:32:22,079 --> 01:32:23,800
don't know why I assumed that that was like locked

1941
01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:25,319
to that, but I guess it's everywhere else.

1942
01:32:25,880 --> 01:32:29,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, Monster Hunter's like traditionally like a not tradition, but

1943
01:32:29,279 --> 01:32:32,239
often a portable first one. Yeah, that's the kind of

1944
01:32:32,279 --> 01:32:34,119
thing where I think it does have a strong association

1945
01:32:34,199 --> 01:32:35,279
with Nintendo at this point.

1946
01:32:35,359 --> 01:32:37,520
Speaker 3: But because I think that one did do very.

1947
01:32:37,399 --> 01:32:40,159
Speaker 1: Well on Switch Yeah, because that's one of the Capcom

1948
01:32:40,239 --> 01:32:42,119
games that have come out this year that we haven't

1949
01:32:42,159 --> 01:32:44,840
really checked out, and it's it's intriguing me more and

1950
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:46,279
more as the weeks go back.

1951
01:32:46,279 --> 01:32:47,640
Speaker 3: I would I would love to hear what you think.

1952
01:32:47,880 --> 01:32:50,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, especially Yeah, somebody who complains about the production values

1953
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,039
of Monern Pokemon games. This thing seems like it has

1954
01:32:53,119 --> 01:32:53,920
productive looks.

1955
01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:55,600
Speaker 3: Beautiful, yeah, yeah, gorgeous.

1956
01:32:56,239 --> 01:32:58,920
Speaker 4: But you guys like you, guys like me, where there's

1957
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:02,520
something going on when you play this game that I

1958
01:33:02,920 --> 01:33:05,079
every now and then we'll just I don't know why.

1959
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:07,720
I mean, maybe you can help me understand why. But

1960
01:33:07,800 --> 01:33:10,159
every now and then I just hear I just see

1961
01:33:10,239 --> 01:33:12,479
like the Lost Planet title screen.

1962
01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:15,840
Speaker 3: I and I sometimes all playing it thought like, oh,

1963
01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:17,479
this is like if Lost Planet was fun?

1964
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:21,000
Speaker 4: Yes, Like that's I think That's what I'm getting at right.

1965
01:33:21,079 --> 01:33:24,520
It's like it's like, how close were were we to

1966
01:33:24,760 --> 01:33:28,399
like Lost Planet being this and good?

1967
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:32,199
Speaker 5: And I bet there was one pitch from somebody or

1968
01:33:32,239 --> 01:33:35,239
one conversation like why don't we just close game Lost Planet?

1969
01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:37,600
And like they had to kind of fight against it

1970
01:33:38,239 --> 01:33:40,520
in the in the world that brought you that game

1971
01:33:41,079 --> 01:33:45,720
is called Pray Why, Like I'm shocked they didn't all this.

1972
01:33:45,960 --> 01:33:47,640
Maybe the fact that it didn't take place on a

1973
01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:48,640
planet saved us.

1974
01:33:49,199 --> 01:33:50,359
Speaker 3: How about this? How about this?

1975
01:33:50,560 --> 01:33:53,880
Speaker 4: I know, uh the I'm reading the description of the

1976
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:59,439
story you just reported on grub when I when I read, uh,

1977
01:34:00,039 --> 01:34:03,000
young development team? Are we talking like young people or

1978
01:34:03,079 --> 01:34:04,880
a team that was assembled recently?

1979
01:34:05,319 --> 01:34:06,880
Speaker 3: I think it's a combination of the two.

1980
01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:11,000
Speaker 5: I think when they started development on this, it's the

1981
01:34:11,079 --> 01:34:12,079
game I made them old.

1982
01:34:12,920 --> 01:34:18,239
Speaker 4: I wonder like, if Lost Planet did never existed, does

1983
01:34:18,359 --> 01:34:24,520
this game exist like in a weird timeline? Like I again, Yeah,

1984
01:34:25,159 --> 01:34:27,920
there's something I again, like I, we all seem to

1985
01:34:28,000 --> 01:34:30,399
like can't exactly put our finger on it other than

1986
01:34:30,479 --> 01:34:31,720
saying the word vibes.

1987
01:34:32,199 --> 01:34:35,319
Speaker 3: It's like, what is it? What is There's a lot

1988
01:34:35,359 --> 01:34:37,840
of big boss fight, it's a lot of mechanical and

1989
01:34:38,319 --> 01:34:41,399
you're in a big chunky spacesuit. There's chunkiness.

1990
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:44,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the circumstantial aspect of it of like, uh,

1991
01:34:45,359 --> 01:34:48,359
Capcom has their core franchises that always do well, and

1992
01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:51,840
the last time that they were making original ip was

1993
01:34:51,960 --> 01:34:55,840
that Lost Planet time. Yes, and they did a bunch

1994
01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:58,279
of those and then that sort of fizzled out or

1995
01:34:58,319 --> 01:35:00,520
in some cases crashed and burned and they were treated

1996
01:35:00,560 --> 01:35:03,239
back to all their core things and now they're reintroducing

1997
01:35:03,359 --> 01:35:07,479
that concept of new IP and this one's like last

1998
01:35:07,520 --> 01:35:09,640
time I felt that way was Lost Planet, but.

1999
01:35:10,119 --> 01:35:12,720
Speaker 3: It's hitting so much more now, Like even like Knitsagama

2000
01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:15,479
and stuff like this is this thing. It's just better.

2001
01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:19,079
Speaker 4: Yeah, everything they're just working right now. It fixed me, doctor, Thanks.

2002
01:35:20,119 --> 01:35:21,960
I think I think them all better now. They made

2003
01:35:22,319 --> 01:35:23,760
three of those games they did.

2004
01:35:23,840 --> 01:35:24,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't like that.

2005
01:35:25,119 --> 01:35:28,560
Speaker 5: It's like Capcom's lost generation now when you think about it. Yeah, right,

2006
01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:30,880
and like they kind of they did better than a

2007
01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:32,880
lot of people because they had early hits like Dead

2008
01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:34,800
Rising and Lost Plane and then by the end it's

2009
01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:38,880
like res Evil six and the Bionic Commando reboot.

2010
01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:40,880
Speaker 3: People don't remember and weird.

2011
01:35:40,720 --> 01:35:41,279
Speaker 5: Shit like that.

2012
01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:44,359
Speaker 2: I mean, people get sensitive about it. But like Japanese

2013
01:35:44,399 --> 01:35:48,439
companies were figuring out the HD era and Capcom to

2014
01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:50,840
its to its credit, like tried a bunch of stuff

2015
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:52,680
and some of it worked. Yeah it didn't, but I

2016
01:35:52,720 --> 01:35:54,640
think it like really hurt when it did it because

2017
01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:58,800
when it did not, because those games were relatively way

2018
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,359
more expensive than the previous generation to create, and so

2019
01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:02,680
It's like I think they got a bad taste in

2020
01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:04,159
their mouth and then they pulled back. And now they've

2021
01:36:04,479 --> 01:36:06,640
spent so much time building up their tech and their

2022
01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:09,399
know how for their own engine and made it so

2023
01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:11,720
versatile that it can work in all these different kinds

2024
01:36:11,760 --> 01:36:14,279
of games, that they've built a business model where they

2025
01:36:14,279 --> 01:36:17,239
can attempt those things again and and it really helps

2026
01:36:17,279 --> 01:36:18,920
that when the game comes out it sells a million

2027
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:22,159
copies in two days. It's like it's hitting and it's

2028
01:36:22,239 --> 01:36:25,239
probably more business friendly to them at the same time.

2029
01:36:25,359 --> 01:36:29,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, those Lost Planet games did some I remember the

2030
01:36:29,640 --> 01:36:32,840
first one specifically had had a motion blurring kind of

2031
01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:33,279
thing going.

2032
01:36:33,560 --> 01:36:35,800
Speaker 3: A lot going on there. It was very much that

2033
01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:38,920
like thirty Frames a second era. It's also when I

2034
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:42,119
think of games to do like egregious obvious boss week points,

2035
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:44,199
the Lost Planet is the first one I think of

2036
01:36:44,239 --> 01:36:48,520
because everything was glowing prestual on something's back.

2037
01:36:48,760 --> 01:36:50,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, how's the bloom?

2038
01:36:52,439 --> 01:36:52,840
Speaker 3: Bloom?

2039
01:36:53,239 --> 01:36:56,960
Speaker 2: There was a cyber connect too, is like a Japanese

2040
01:36:57,279 --> 01:37:01,079
developer that they sold their tech to all these other

2041
01:37:01,159 --> 01:37:03,439
studios and it was just like, we can add bloom

2042
01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:05,600
to your game, and all these games have the exact.

2043
01:37:05,279 --> 01:37:07,600
Speaker 3: Same bloom Bloomint.

2044
01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:10,720
Speaker 5: I'll take side order of the Havoc physics engine please.

2045
01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:12,720
I don't know, we'll figure out what we're gonna do

2046
01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:14,359
with that. Just throw it in there. Just have it.

2047
01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:16,640
Speaker 3: We need it. No, every game needs to have Havoc.

2048
01:37:17,359 --> 01:37:18,720
Have Havoc, all right.

2049
01:37:19,079 --> 01:37:21,880
Speaker 2: Next story here, S and K is releasing a modern

2050
01:37:22,079 --> 01:37:25,039
Neo g O a e S the Advanced Entertainment System

2051
01:37:25,239 --> 01:37:30,239
console with unrivaled authenticity and seventy pound game cartridges. We

2052
01:37:30,399 --> 01:37:32,520
think it's going to be ninety dollars game cartridges in

2053
01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:33,439
the United States.

2054
01:37:33,920 --> 01:37:35,039
Speaker 3: This thing is pretty neat.

2055
01:37:35,119 --> 01:37:37,439
Speaker 2: It's two hundred and fifty dollars, or if you're Mike Minatti,

2056
01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:38,840
one thousand dollars and.

2057
01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:39,720
Speaker 5: It's uh.

2058
01:37:41,439 --> 01:37:42,680
Speaker 3: And two capavores. That's right.

2059
01:37:43,640 --> 01:37:47,239
Speaker 2: And it's a recreation, a sort of reissue of the

2060
01:37:47,359 --> 01:37:50,560
original Neo Geo hardware. Now it isn't It is a

2061
01:37:50,640 --> 01:37:54,760
different chip. But it's not an FPGA exactly, and it's

2062
01:37:54,960 --> 01:37:59,039
not a emulation box, just a PC that is running

2063
01:37:59,039 --> 01:38:01,159
an emulator. It is an ASIK chip.

2064
01:38:01,239 --> 01:38:03,479
Speaker 3: They haven't really said exactly what they mean by that,

2065
01:38:03,640 --> 01:38:05,520
but it's you know, it's a specific chip built for

2066
01:38:05,600 --> 01:38:06,159
this purpose.

2067
01:38:06,760 --> 01:38:09,319
Speaker 2: And we'll have to see how authentic it's going to

2068
01:38:09,359 --> 01:38:12,039
be in terms of oh, is it cycle accurate and

2069
01:38:12,119 --> 01:38:14,720
all that stuff. But for now it seems pretty promising.

2070
01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:17,600
And one reason to believe it's going to be pretty

2071
01:38:17,640 --> 01:38:20,560
accurate is the games that they are reissuing as well

2072
01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:23,359
work on original hardware. They'll work on here, they'll work

2073
01:38:23,399 --> 01:38:26,520
on original hardware. It's all just kind of a neo geo.

2074
01:38:28,079 --> 01:38:32,239
People have been pretty excited about this. Obviously, S and

2075
01:38:32,319 --> 01:38:36,560
K fully owned by NBS, almost like NBS himself basically

2076
01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:40,840
owns it, not just Saudi Arabia, but NBS does person

2077
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:44,439
like his his like there's like the public Investment Fund

2078
01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:48,039
for Saudi Arabia, and then there's NBS Industries, which is like,

2079
01:38:48,279 --> 01:38:50,640
I SK that's the thing that owns S and K.

2080
01:38:50,920 --> 01:38:55,399
So yeah, it's basically him personally, and that definitely rubs

2081
01:38:55,439 --> 01:38:57,560
people the wrong way because they have slavery in Saudi

2082
01:38:57,560 --> 01:39:00,720
Arabia and he had a journalist killed. I frown upon

2083
01:39:00,800 --> 01:39:03,960
those things, but it's one of those situations where uh,

2084
01:39:05,119 --> 01:39:08,079
if like S in, you could try to hurt S

2085
01:39:08,199 --> 01:39:11,600
and K and try to hurt MBS by not purchasing

2086
01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:13,319
S and K, and I don't blame anyone for doing that,

2087
01:39:13,520 --> 01:39:16,039
but it would only hurt s and k NBS makes

2088
01:39:16,079 --> 01:39:18,640
all his money because you buy plastics and he owns

2089
01:39:18,680 --> 01:39:22,319
the petrochemical industry and the oil industries. So it's complicated,

2090
01:39:22,359 --> 01:39:25,319
it's nuanced, and I don't blame anyone for being sick

2091
01:39:25,359 --> 01:39:27,199
to their stomach about this stuff. But I think this

2092
01:39:27,319 --> 01:39:29,319
thing looks pretty cool, and I cannot help that I

2093
01:39:29,359 --> 01:39:29,880
feel that way.

2094
01:39:31,039 --> 01:39:33,760
Speaker 3: It is cheaper than every time I ever saw NeoGeo,

2095
01:39:33,960 --> 01:39:36,079
which was just in a magazine in the back for

2096
01:39:36,119 --> 01:39:38,760
an ad for some weird import place, and every game

2097
01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:41,319
costs like six hundred dollars, so always looking at it,

2098
01:39:41,680 --> 01:39:43,520
this has to be a typo every month. There's no

2099
01:39:43,560 --> 01:39:46,239
way I caused this much. Did you ever? Like?

2100
01:39:46,479 --> 01:39:48,880
Speaker 2: For me, it was like I could want this thing,

2101
01:39:49,119 --> 01:39:51,920
of course, but I'm never gonna, like entertain the idea

2102
01:39:51,960 --> 01:39:54,359
of actually ever owning one, because I'm never gonna be

2103
01:39:54,359 --> 01:39:55,920
able to save up that amount of money as a kid,

2104
01:39:56,079 --> 01:39:59,000
and I'm not gonna ask my parents. No, I don't

2105
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:01,119
want them to think that video games could be that expensive.

2106
01:40:01,239 --> 01:40:03,439
I don't want them to know about the neog.

2107
01:40:03,279 --> 01:40:04,600
Speaker 3: I didn't think I could be in the same zip

2108
01:40:04,640 --> 01:40:06,319
code as someone who owned one of those things like

2109
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:07,760
crub what you.

2110
01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:13,159
Speaker 4: Just said unlocked some repressed memory Like yeah, where like

2111
01:40:13,239 --> 01:40:15,600
you hit a certain point where you're just like, oh,

2112
01:40:15,960 --> 01:40:18,960
Mom and Dad don't want you to know. I don't

2113
01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:21,319
want you to know this thing that I know, but

2114
01:40:21,479 --> 01:40:23,800
if you I'll be embarrassed about the cost.

2115
01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:24,039
Speaker 3: Of it all.

2116
01:40:25,840 --> 01:40:29,960
Speaker 4: It was probably around uh like a PS two where

2117
01:40:30,079 --> 01:40:33,119
I where I was buying it right, where it was like,

2118
01:40:33,319 --> 01:40:35,279
this is not what I want for my birthday. This

2119
01:40:35,439 --> 01:40:37,159
is a thing that I'm gonna have to think. It

2120
01:40:37,239 --> 01:40:39,399
was maybe three hundred dollars right or whatever.

2121
01:40:39,399 --> 01:40:42,039
Speaker 3: It was. Wow, what just happened to me? So I

2122
01:40:42,079 --> 01:40:44,359
feel like I'm in therapy, which is something just happened

2123
01:40:44,359 --> 01:40:44,520
to me.

2124
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,279
Speaker 2: I mean like when you go from like having did

2125
01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:52,439
every political conversation with your parents, like of navigating their

2126
01:40:53,079 --> 01:40:55,760
willingness to buy you stuff to trying to like shift

2127
01:40:55,840 --> 01:40:58,239
to you buying the stuff yourself. It's a yeah sort

2128
01:40:58,279 --> 01:41:01,640
of transition, right, It's almost traumatic, Like Okay, I guess

2129
01:41:01,640 --> 01:41:04,439
we gotta it's a like a buy up GameCube.

2130
01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:07,439
Speaker 4: It's yes, It's it's like a loss of innocence in

2131
01:41:07,520 --> 01:41:11,039
a way too, where it's like I have agency. I'm

2132
01:41:11,159 --> 01:41:14,239
going to spend my money on the thing, and I

2133
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:17,880
don't need your approval on the matter, thank you very much.

2134
01:41:18,359 --> 01:41:20,119
Speaker 3: It was also don't look at me. I'm scared to

2135
01:41:20,159 --> 01:41:22,760
admit I'm bad. It was so scary every fucking time

2136
01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:24,399
because the only way I could get new consoles if

2137
01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:27,079
I traded in everything I had of the previous generation.

2138
01:41:27,279 --> 01:41:29,199
So it's like, I'm already I wanted to Segacy D

2139
01:41:29,359 --> 01:41:31,479
and I traded in my NES in every game, and

2140
01:41:31,520 --> 01:41:33,239
it's like, all right, well, hopefully the Segacy D is

2141
01:41:33,239 --> 01:41:35,680
going to be better than the NES and it was not,

2142
01:41:35,920 --> 01:41:39,039
and that so it's like you have to do so

2143
01:41:39,199 --> 01:41:41,479
much research and you were so worried, like PlayStation Saturn,

2144
01:41:41,520 --> 01:41:43,359
which one's gonna be the better one? Here, I'll go

2145
01:41:43,399 --> 01:41:45,319
with this because I'm trading it my Superintendo and my

2146
01:41:45,399 --> 01:41:47,319
Sega Genesis for this, Like scary.

2147
01:41:47,399 --> 01:41:50,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, God, I was so dumb doing that stuff. Yeah, however,

2148
01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:55,439
I know you're right. Yeah, it was nice for Neo

2149
01:41:55,520 --> 01:41:58,159
g O. There's a lot of ways to play those games, everybody. So, yeah,

2150
01:41:58,640 --> 01:42:00,800
if you don't want to get this thing, mister, I

2151
01:42:00,880 --> 01:42:03,600
have all those Neodo games on my superstation, right now

2152
01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:06,359
and they work real well, so you have a lot

2153
01:42:06,399 --> 01:42:10,079
of options out there. The collector's market is pretty excited

2154
01:42:10,079 --> 01:42:13,000
about those games getting reissued, though they were expensive to

2155
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:14,680
begin with and they're just not like there's a ton

2156
01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:16,920
of them out there, to the point where people are like,

2157
01:42:17,039 --> 01:42:19,680
just get the arcade boards instead, and there's a way

2158
01:42:19,720 --> 01:42:21,760
to like rig those up to work on neo geos.

2159
01:42:21,760 --> 01:42:24,640
I'm like, that sounds pretty in depth, but people are

2160
01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:25,039
out there.

2161
01:42:24,960 --> 01:42:26,720
Speaker 3: Doing all kinds of crazy stuff for neogos.

2162
01:42:26,840 --> 01:42:31,479
Speaker 2: Yep, all right, Mind's Eye Studio, The saga continues.

2163
01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:31,960
Speaker 3: Everybody.

2164
01:42:33,039 --> 01:42:37,199
Speaker 2: Mind's Eye Studio staff takes a legal action saying management

2165
01:42:37,319 --> 01:42:42,199
installed invasive surveillance software. Basically, the story here is that

2166
01:42:42,359 --> 01:42:46,279
the IWGB Game Workers Union is working with employees at

2167
01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:49,199
Build a Rocket Boy, which is the Mind's Eye Studio,

2168
01:42:49,760 --> 01:42:55,960
to basically sue Build a Rocket Boy for installing this software,

2169
01:42:56,000 --> 01:43:00,119
which is called terror Mind without fully explaining all of

2170
01:43:00,199 --> 01:43:02,039
the data it was going to be keeping, which you're

2171
01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:06,159
you're aware of like European regulations. Big no, No, that's

2172
01:43:06,199 --> 01:43:08,279
a big problem. You've got to tell everybody, like what

2173
01:43:08,439 --> 01:43:11,199
data you're keeping. They have to agree to it. Uh,

2174
01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:13,319
And this is the kind of thing where it's like, oh,

2175
01:43:13,439 --> 01:43:15,960
is this the sabotage you're talking about, the self sabotage

2176
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:20,479
of you just being a bad company. Yeah, the story

2177
01:43:20,560 --> 01:43:24,359
around Mind's Eye way more interesting than the game itself.

2178
01:43:24,399 --> 01:43:26,560
Speaker 3: You know, you're going to regret your words. Indeed, when

2179
01:43:26,600 --> 01:43:29,199
they that mission comes out, I want to do a stream.

2180
01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:33,199
We all get a we're all wearing a fedora, and

2181
01:43:33,239 --> 01:43:34,239
we're gonna get to the bottom of.

2182
01:43:34,239 --> 01:43:37,800
Speaker 1: This, and we're gonna find out that's pretty good if

2183
01:43:37,840 --> 01:43:39,239
we can expense the fedora.

2184
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:42,079
Speaker 3: Sure, let's all doesn't get to the bottom of it.

2185
01:43:42,199 --> 01:43:45,279
It's mine sig noir. That mission is never coming out, right,

2186
01:43:45,960 --> 01:43:46,920
You're going to regret your.

2187
01:43:47,439 --> 01:43:50,920
Speaker 5: It's the proper legal names of the people he suspects

2188
01:43:51,159 --> 01:43:54,800
from his illegal in office monitoring.

2189
01:43:55,039 --> 01:43:57,359
Speaker 3: You think, what the are we talking about?

2190
01:43:57,760 --> 01:44:00,279
Speaker 1: Do you think he didn't realize that he was doing

2191
01:44:00,359 --> 01:44:01,479
the corporate infiltration?

2192
01:44:02,600 --> 01:44:07,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's delusion, of course he is.

2193
01:44:08,279 --> 01:44:09,760
Speaker 5: You got too many people told me it was the

2194
01:44:09,800 --> 01:44:11,720
greatest thing ever because he made GTA on line and

2195
01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:13,399
got a bunch of money. So now he came in

2196
01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:16,920
fathom failure. There's got the other people's fault. Everyone's out.

2197
01:44:17,359 --> 01:44:20,840
It's a classic everyone's out to get me. Yep, he's

2198
01:44:20,840 --> 01:44:23,359
got to prove it. And like we're laughing at him,

2199
01:44:23,479 --> 01:44:25,479
that makes him more mad. But he'll show us.

2200
01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:28,760
Speaker 3: He is gonna show us. It's gonna rule.

2201
01:44:29,199 --> 01:44:30,600
Speaker 5: I know, crazy people work.

2202
01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:37,039
Speaker 3: Now, imagine if this man had a fedora on those Yeah,

2203
01:44:37,279 --> 01:44:38,640
that would I would buy it.

2204
01:44:40,239 --> 01:44:43,279
Speaker 2: Mark Gerhard, who's not Leslie Bensay's, but he's the CEO

2205
01:44:43,399 --> 01:44:45,279
and it works closely with Leslie Benza's who was the

2206
01:44:45,279 --> 01:44:48,560
guy that was at the Grand Theft Audio, worked at

2207
01:44:49,199 --> 01:44:52,000
Theft Auto and all that stuff, and sued Take Two

2208
01:44:52,079 --> 01:44:53,439
and sued rock Star.

2209
01:44:53,279 --> 01:44:55,319
Speaker 3: And there was a big falling out there. Uh.

2210
01:44:55,439 --> 01:44:58,079
Speaker 2: The suggestion has always been that rock Star and Take

2211
01:44:58,159 --> 01:45:01,119
Two we're interfering with mind's eye. Yeah, and your heart

2212
01:45:01,239 --> 01:45:04,920
was yeah, your heart was saying, uh yeah, organized espionage

2213
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:08,439
and corporate sabotage. That's a direct quote. Those are the

2214
01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:11,239
terms that he used. And as Dan and Mica alluding to,

2215
01:45:11,439 --> 01:45:13,439
there's that mission that they're gonna put out that has

2216
01:45:13,520 --> 01:45:17,119
the names of the people responsible for the corporate espionage

2217
01:45:17,239 --> 01:45:17,960
and sabotage.

2218
01:45:17,960 --> 01:45:20,199
Speaker 3: Oh you wait, you're gonna have egg on your face journalists.

2219
01:45:21,199 --> 01:45:23,840
Speaker 5: The mission? What is he what does he think's gonna happen.

2220
01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:26,000
We're gonna be like, well there, oh we were wrong,

2221
01:45:26,159 --> 01:45:31,159
we apologize. Do you think where this goes to court,

2222
01:45:31,640 --> 01:45:33,960
a fucking judge is going to have to play this mission?

2223
01:45:34,960 --> 01:45:38,520
Speaker 2: Yes, that would be the dream. That would be amazing.

2224
01:45:38,760 --> 01:45:40,039
I guess to stream it on twitch?

2225
01:45:40,199 --> 01:45:40,680
Speaker 3: I would love it.

2226
01:45:41,239 --> 01:45:43,199
Speaker 5: What's going on? All right?

2227
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:44,880
Speaker 3: So bad news? Bad news? Back?

2228
01:45:44,920 --> 01:45:47,840
Speaker 2: Here's some good news. It sounds like the cult in

2229
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:52,640
sixty four Shooter buck Bumble is really coming back games.

2230
01:45:52,960 --> 01:45:56,039
The studio behind Kroc is hinting at a revival for

2231
01:45:56,119 --> 01:45:58,960
its cult in sixty four Shooter buck Bumble that came

2232
01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:03,720
out in nineteen ninety eight. Recently, Argonauts they reissued Kroc.

2233
01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:05,920
They did a collection of Croc games that's also theirs.

2234
01:46:06,319 --> 01:46:08,800
And then about a week ago someone was like, hey,

2235
01:46:09,159 --> 01:46:11,560
uh people are doing all this stupid stuff. You should

2236
01:46:11,600 --> 01:46:14,439
just go, you know, emulate buck Bumble, just go get

2237
01:46:14,479 --> 01:46:17,239
buck Bumble, and Argonauts is like, uh no, we own that,

2238
01:46:17,399 --> 01:46:19,479
not ubi stuff that would hurt us. And everyone's like,

2239
01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:20,880
what do you talk about. It's not like we can

2240
01:46:20,960 --> 01:46:23,319
go buy that right now. And then they got kind

2241
01:46:23,359 --> 01:46:25,600
of quiet, and a week later they started putting out

2242
01:46:26,279 --> 01:46:30,039
teases of like black and white Bumblebee colored stripes dancing

2243
01:46:30,079 --> 01:46:33,159
around to different music. It's like he's back and the

2244
01:46:33,279 --> 01:46:36,800
key the reference in here might be mister buck Bumble himself.

2245
01:46:37,479 --> 01:46:40,880
Speaker 3: Wow, God, it's so weird. Like we joke about the

2246
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:42,680
theme song and stuff like that. But like, oh, when

2247
01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:45,520
that game came out, there was nothing there. It wasn't like, oh,

2248
01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:48,159
this is good for its time, Like no one cared when.

2249
01:46:48,039 --> 01:46:48,560
Speaker 5: It came out.

2250
01:46:48,680 --> 01:46:51,199
Speaker 3: It was another like three years later it's like, oh,

2251
01:46:51,239 --> 01:46:54,680
hell yeah, buck Bubbles. It kind of wished it was Glover,

2252
01:46:54,880 --> 01:46:59,520
which is sort of a sad thing. Better than Glove.

2253
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:01,359
The Skase scenario was bad.

2254
01:47:06,159 --> 01:47:08,039
Speaker 2: When they reissue this, it might be you know, if

2255
01:47:08,079 --> 01:47:10,680
they fix up the controls. It's not like some terrible game.

2256
01:47:11,119 --> 01:47:16,279
It's like a weird a scent clone. Kind Yeah, there

2257
01:47:16,319 --> 01:47:18,279
we go make people sick with buck Bumble have that

2258
01:47:18,399 --> 01:47:19,560
music playing the entire time.

2259
01:47:19,720 --> 01:47:20,680
Speaker 3: Good association there.

2260
01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:24,960
Speaker 2: PlayStation has started telling UK and Iron players Ireland players

2261
01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:28,640
to verify their age by June to keep certain features.

2262
01:47:29,199 --> 01:47:31,960
Sony is notifying PlayStation players in the UK and Ireland

2263
01:47:32,079 --> 01:47:35,279
that mandatory age verification starting in June twenty twenty six

2264
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:38,960
will be required to continue using search and certain features

2265
01:47:39,079 --> 01:47:42,720
like messaging, voice chat, and broadcasting. Players can verify their

2266
01:47:42,800 --> 01:47:46,119
age now via QR code using Sony's service provider YOT,

2267
01:47:46,760 --> 01:47:49,319
with options including mobile number, facial.

2268
01:47:49,039 --> 01:47:49,960
Speaker 3: Scan, or ID.

2269
01:47:50,640 --> 01:47:55,000
Speaker 2: If age verification is not completed, communication features well on PlayStation,

2270
01:47:55,159 --> 01:47:58,199
the PS app, web, and discord, as well as broadcasting

2271
01:47:58,239 --> 01:48:02,000
to platforms like YouTube and Twitch will be blocked. This

2272
01:48:02,199 --> 01:48:04,640
is a trend across the globe. It's happening more and more.

2273
01:48:04,800 --> 01:48:07,640
Everyone's like, hey, every time you do this, it feels

2274
01:48:07,680 --> 01:48:09,960
like one of these third party verification companies you use

2275
01:48:10,039 --> 01:48:11,880
gets hacked and takes all of our data and we

2276
01:48:12,000 --> 01:48:14,359
blame you company who forced me to do this, And

2277
01:48:14,399 --> 01:48:17,079
they're like, it's not us, it's that company. So we're hey,

2278
01:48:17,479 --> 01:48:19,800
wash our hands of it. H It's kind of a

2279
01:48:19,840 --> 01:48:23,279
shitty situation, definitely. I deal with some of this in Ohio.

2280
01:48:23,359 --> 01:48:25,680
I'm showing Mike how I have my Blue Sky's like, hey,

2281
01:48:26,239 --> 01:48:28,359
can't read your DMS unless you send us your ID,

2282
01:48:28,520 --> 01:48:30,399
and I'm not going to send you my ID.

2283
01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:32,399
Speaker 3: That is crazy. I've been using the.

2284
01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:36,079
Speaker 2: Internet for thirty goddamns for thirty years. I'm not doing

2285
01:48:36,159 --> 01:48:39,640
this now, but it's coming, and it seems kind of unavoidable,

2286
01:48:39,640 --> 01:48:41,199
and it just feels like it's going to keep spreading

2287
01:48:41,279 --> 01:48:43,439
and these are the kinds of headaches it's going to introduce.

2288
01:48:43,640 --> 01:48:44,960
Speaker 3: I'm sure you use it for Blue Sky.

2289
01:48:45,119 --> 01:48:48,199
Speaker 2: You had to can't read my DMS unless I do

2290
01:48:48,439 --> 01:48:52,359
use a bunch of workarounds. Wh Yeah, that there's a

2291
01:48:52,560 --> 01:48:56,920
state Ohio. There's an Ohio state law about certain platforms,

2292
01:48:56,960 --> 01:48:59,600
and platforms interpret it in different ways. Blue Sky is

2293
01:48:59,600 --> 01:49:02,279
interpreting it as as long as we don't let you

2294
01:49:02,479 --> 01:49:06,600
communicate directly through DMS, we're in compliance unless you send

2295
01:49:06,680 --> 01:49:08,960
us your ID and verify your age. And I'm I'm

2296
01:49:08,960 --> 01:49:11,039
not going to do that. Whoa, I mean, it's like,

2297
01:49:11,119 --> 01:49:12,720
look at what I'm posting. You could tell him a

2298
01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:15,520
forty forty two year old man, forty three year old man.

2299
01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:19,439
So just yeah, forty four is in chat club forty

2300
01:49:19,439 --> 01:49:22,760
four club drop the forty four's there. Yeah, this stuff

2301
01:49:22,800 --> 01:49:24,640
is gonna I mean, there's laws like this all over

2302
01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:27,520
different states that I know, Mississippi has them. There's a

2303
01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:31,000
handful of United States states that have this already, and

2304
01:49:31,279 --> 01:49:33,600
that that patchwork is going to make it even more annoying.

2305
01:49:33,600 --> 01:49:36,039
They're just going to do at a certain point the

2306
01:49:36,119 --> 01:49:39,800
lowest common denominator and whatever state has the most traconian laws,

2307
01:49:39,920 --> 01:49:42,319
they will comply with those and apply them across not

2308
01:49:42,439 --> 01:49:43,920
just the United States but the world.

2309
01:49:43,680 --> 01:49:46,479
Speaker 3: Because it'll be easiest for these companies. And that's going

2310
01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:48,880
to be again huge headaches. Is this gay Burn's fault?

2311
01:49:49,640 --> 01:49:52,319
Speaker 5: I think this might be Gabo with yeah, yeah, yeah,

2312
01:49:52,319 --> 01:49:53,600
what he did with the driver's license.

2313
01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:57,039
Speaker 3: Okay, moved on to discord and stuff. Okay, yeah, yeah,

2314
01:49:58,199 --> 01:49:58,920
spread of Gabo.

2315
01:50:00,159 --> 01:50:03,439
Speaker 2: All right, let's see here. UBI stuff confirms Assassin's Creed

2316
01:50:03,479 --> 01:50:06,560
Black Flag remake reveal. They were like, hey, you know

2317
01:50:06,640 --> 01:50:08,239
this is coming, but we're going to tell you more

2318
01:50:08,279 --> 01:50:11,439
about it anyhow. On April twenty third, at six pm

2319
01:50:11,640 --> 01:50:14,960
Central European Standard time. I never know what that is,

2320
01:50:15,079 --> 01:50:18,399
maybe summertime, but yeah, nine am Pacific time, they will

2321
01:50:18,399 --> 01:50:21,199
be telling us more about Assassin's Creed Black Flag. We've

2322
01:50:21,359 --> 01:50:23,239
mentioned this so many times at this point, I'm just

2323
01:50:23,319 --> 01:50:25,359
kind of following up so people know that it's actually

2324
01:50:25,399 --> 01:50:29,199
real and actually going to get announced. Although I don't know,

2325
01:50:29,279 --> 01:50:31,319
occasionally I do get in the mood for Assassin's Creed

2326
01:50:31,359 --> 01:50:32,439
for it's a decent game.

2327
01:50:32,479 --> 01:50:35,399
Speaker 5: It's a great game. Yeah, like back then, Dan shick

2328
01:50:35,439 --> 01:50:35,760
in your head.

2329
01:50:35,840 --> 01:50:39,079
Speaker 3: No, I mean I like any Assassin's Creeds back then,

2330
01:50:39,119 --> 01:50:43,319
but I super didn't like Black Flag. Really he hates shanties.

2331
01:50:43,720 --> 01:50:45,840
The chanties were annoying. There were a lot of stealth

2332
01:50:45,920 --> 01:50:49,039
missions where somebody spots you and it ends the mission like, Yeah,

2333
01:50:49,039 --> 01:50:54,560
it's everything I disliked about Assassin's Creed. Plus like bad Sailing's.

2334
01:50:53,199 --> 01:50:57,319
Speaker 5: Okay, sailings. The sailing is good. I get the other

2335
01:50:57,359 --> 01:51:03,119
things so bad sailing. The sailing's fun. I like Windwaker,

2336
01:51:04,039 --> 01:51:08,720
no good look said Ubi Soft the tiny I'm already

2337
01:51:08,720 --> 01:51:13,840
in trouble because of the freaking Neo jo here real

2338
01:51:13,920 --> 01:51:17,399
bad on that one. I'm house said, uh.

2339
01:51:17,600 --> 01:51:19,960
Speaker 2: Shoe Hey Yoshida says he was fired from his role

2340
01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:24,039
at PlayStation as studio president because he quote didn't listen

2341
01:51:24,119 --> 01:51:27,720
to Jim Ryan. He's like, yeah, Jim, he wouldn't say,

2342
01:51:27,720 --> 01:51:29,760
I like what they disagreed about or what like Jim

2343
01:51:29,840 --> 01:51:31,520
Ryan was asking him to do that he didn't do.

2344
01:51:31,920 --> 01:51:35,479
But if you remember, shoe Hey, Yoshida was the president

2345
01:51:35,560 --> 01:51:38,600
of PlayStation Worldwide Studios and then one day he just

2346
01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:41,439
wasn't he was in charge of indie games and indie

2347
01:51:41,479 --> 01:51:44,880
relationships at PlayStation, and it's like that always felt weird,

2348
01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:47,800
that felt like a demotion, and he's suggested as much before,

2349
01:51:47,840 --> 01:51:49,239
but this is the first time he basically said he

2350
01:51:49,399 --> 01:51:52,680
was fired from that role. And this is a reminder

2351
01:51:52,720 --> 01:51:56,600
as always that play the internal politics of the higher

2352
01:51:56,880 --> 01:52:00,720
corporate echelon within PlayStation has always been a pretty tough

2353
01:52:00,760 --> 01:52:03,680
political game. And you know, you think of Sean Leyden

2354
01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:06,000
one day just announcing that he's done and leaving the company,

2355
01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:10,000
and they didn't have a successor announced probably a similar situation,

2356
01:52:10,479 --> 01:52:14,279
and that was him people people's surmise in a power

2357
01:52:14,319 --> 01:52:17,199
struggle with Jim Ryan and Jim Ryan winning out there

2358
01:52:17,600 --> 01:52:19,479
and then now that kind of having having any effect

2359
01:52:19,479 --> 01:52:24,319
on Yoshida. Yeah, look, Jim Ryan's legacy does feel like

2360
01:52:24,560 --> 01:52:26,880
he got powered, didn't know what to do with it,

2361
01:52:27,039 --> 01:52:29,159
made a bunch of live service live service games, and

2362
01:52:29,199 --> 01:52:32,319
now PlayStation's paying the price, and stories like this certainly

2363
01:52:32,359 --> 01:52:35,000
make it feel like, oh, that was a mistake in

2364
01:52:35,119 --> 01:52:39,279
a lot of ways, because Shuehey is beloved and it

2365
01:52:39,359 --> 01:52:43,239
did seem like his instincts on games were mostly correct,

2366
01:52:43,239 --> 01:52:45,800
and it feels like had he not been fired. I

2367
01:52:45,880 --> 01:52:48,000
can't remember the timeline. We might we might still have

2368
01:52:48,359 --> 01:52:50,880
Japan's studio, and it seems like PlayStation could use at

2369
01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:52,119
Japan studios these days.

2370
01:52:52,359 --> 01:52:56,039
Speaker 5: Sure, all right, last.

2371
01:52:55,880 --> 01:52:58,079
Speaker 2: Story here, Tony X pro Skidar three plus four developer

2372
01:52:58,159 --> 01:53:02,520
lays off ninety employees or up to ninety employees Iron Galaxy,

2373
01:53:03,159 --> 01:53:05,199
but alt Tony ex Prostkater three and four, they've worked

2374
01:53:05,199 --> 01:53:06,720
on a bunch of other stuff. They worked on Metroit

2375
01:53:06,800 --> 01:53:11,159
Prime four or no excuse me, Metro Prime remake, and

2376
01:53:11,560 --> 01:53:14,680
now they are saying, hey, because of the global climate

2377
01:53:15,359 --> 01:53:18,119
of making video games, we are going to have to

2378
01:53:18,159 --> 01:53:20,239
lay off up to ninety employees after they laid off

2379
01:53:20,239 --> 01:53:24,039
around sixty six last year. And I think I would

2380
01:53:24,039 --> 01:53:26,640
point to like blue Point getting closed down by PlayStation

2381
01:53:26,920 --> 01:53:29,880
as if blue Point doesn't make sense, all of these

2382
01:53:29,960 --> 01:53:34,000
other United States based work for higher companies that do

2383
01:53:34,199 --> 01:53:37,560
ports and do remasters and do remakes also probably don't

2384
01:53:37,600 --> 01:53:39,239
make a lot of sense. And the reason for that

2385
01:53:39,439 --> 01:53:41,079
is it's you know, you could point to AI, but

2386
01:53:41,199 --> 01:53:44,960
also these big companies are just going to studios in

2387
01:53:45,039 --> 01:53:47,479
other parts of the world that are more affordable. And

2388
01:53:47,960 --> 01:53:51,600
even if Iron Galaxy finds a million ways to reduce

2389
01:53:51,640 --> 01:53:53,960
their costs by laying people off, they're still going to

2390
01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:57,640
be less attractive, excuse me, than like a virtuos that

2391
01:53:57,800 --> 01:54:00,920
can do the same the same project at what is

2392
01:54:01,159 --> 01:54:04,479
likely a fraction of the cost. So that's the global climate.

2393
01:54:04,520 --> 01:54:07,119
A company like that finds themselves and they're they're just

2394
01:54:07,199 --> 01:54:08,720
kind of trying to reel and.

2395
01:54:09,119 --> 01:54:09,920
Speaker 3: Make it work.

2396
01:54:10,199 --> 01:54:13,079
Speaker 2: They're not shutting down. But the future of a studio

2397
01:54:13,239 --> 01:54:16,079
like that based inhere, where they're mostly based in Chicago,

2398
01:54:16,119 --> 01:54:18,520
I think I think they've worked for hire or work

2399
01:54:18,560 --> 01:54:21,760
from home. Uh yeah, I don't see how that continues

2400
01:54:21,800 --> 01:54:24,000
to work right now with the way games are going.

2401
01:54:25,760 --> 01:54:28,000
Speaker 5: I feel so bad for this. Yeah, I mean they

2402
01:54:28,119 --> 01:54:32,319
just they've done a lot of great work. I like Proscacy,

2403
01:54:32,359 --> 01:54:34,880
but for a lot Rumbel First was great, which yep,

2404
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:37,159
the shame they could that couldn't work. They did good

2405
01:54:37,199 --> 01:54:40,680
work on or Instinct. Yeah, as a support studio, all

2406
01:54:40,720 --> 01:54:44,720
these giant like successful games that they worked on. I mean, god,

2407
01:54:44,960 --> 01:54:47,760
they worked on the last of US remasters for carrying

2408
01:54:47,840 --> 01:54:52,000
out Loud Crashed Batykod four. H Yeah. If this doesn't

2409
01:54:52,039 --> 01:54:55,439
make sense here, it's just rough because the quality is good,

2410
01:54:56,079 --> 01:54:59,800
and that's not what's being rewarded yepp.

2411
01:55:00,520 --> 01:55:05,119
Speaker 2: It's it's a shame rumble versus that one where it's like, man,

2412
01:55:05,479 --> 01:55:08,760
that just Epic who paid for that game so they

2413
01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:09,560
could do whatever.

2414
01:55:09,319 --> 01:55:09,800
Speaker 3: They want with it.

2415
01:55:10,439 --> 01:55:11,800
Speaker 2: The thing they should not have done with it is

2416
01:55:11,880 --> 01:55:14,039
kept it exclusive to Epic Game Store. Had it been

2417
01:55:14,079 --> 01:55:16,279
on Steam, I think we'd still be playing Rubble Verse today.

2418
01:55:17,399 --> 01:55:17,520
Speaker 3: Uh.

2419
01:55:18,239 --> 01:55:20,439

happens every week. We've again lots and lots of emails,

2435
01:56:08,960 --> 01:56:11,399
so much so that I can only fit so many in,

2436
01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:14,279
but I am still incredibly appreciative of those that come in.

2437
01:56:15,319 --> 01:56:18,520
First email comes from Mike from Loveland, Jan parentheses and

2438
01:56:18,560 --> 01:56:23,079
the others. Tournament of Champions seven is over. The champ

2439
01:56:23,159 --> 01:56:26,399
has been crowned. What is a niche competition? You were

2440
01:56:26,479 --> 01:56:29,439
deeply invested in? What is a niche competition?

2441
01:56:29,560 --> 01:56:30,159
Speaker 3: You have entered?

2442
01:56:30,399 --> 01:56:32,880
Speaker 1: Love the show, Love you all, Mike from Loveland. Now,

2443
01:56:32,880 --> 01:56:34,239
I don't want to spoil from you.

2444
01:56:34,399 --> 01:56:34,560
Speaker 4: Jan.

2445
01:56:34,800 --> 01:56:36,279
Speaker 2: I know you wrote that one and so you could

2446
01:56:36,279 --> 01:56:37,800
talk about tournamented Champions.

2447
01:56:37,920 --> 01:56:39,760
Speaker 1: Now, now, I don't want to spoil anything for folks

2448
01:56:39,800 --> 01:56:42,159
that may have been behind, all right. Tournament of Champions

2449
01:56:42,640 --> 01:56:47,039
is the ultimate cooking competition, all right, because you take

2450
01:56:47,239 --> 01:56:50,760
the top contenders from Top Chef Chopped, all these other

2451
01:56:50,800 --> 01:56:53,640
ones and you throw them in this in a battle

2452
01:56:53,720 --> 01:56:57,239
dome of sorts against the randomizer and against each other.

2453
01:56:57,680 --> 01:57:01,640
The final four this year ultimate cinder Ella's stories. People

2454
01:57:01,760 --> 01:57:04,680
that have always been the bridesmaid, never the bride of

2455
01:57:04,800 --> 01:57:07,560
cooking competitions. I don't want to spoil the final four

2456
01:57:07,760 --> 01:57:10,159
because there's a big thing that come out of it,

2457
01:57:10,399 --> 01:57:15,840
and also the ultimate winner, holy smokes. Finally, finally, getting

2458
01:57:16,079 --> 01:57:16,560
their due.

2459
01:57:18,720 --> 01:57:20,560
Speaker 3: I like the Food Network too much. I think it's

2460
01:57:20,600 --> 01:57:25,119
because it's replaced the WW in my brain. But how

2461
01:57:25,159 --> 01:57:27,199
do you watch the show? Is it? Is it on cable?

2462
01:57:27,359 --> 01:57:32,119
Is Max the One Max formally known or HBO Max

2463
01:57:32,199 --> 01:57:33,479
formally known as Max the one.

2464
01:57:33,399 --> 01:57:36,760
Speaker 1: To watch for HBO has them understood on?

2465
01:57:37,119 --> 01:57:37,319
Speaker 3: Yes?

2466
01:57:38,600 --> 01:57:40,520
Speaker 1: Because the thing is gang like. You need to start

2467
01:57:40,720 --> 01:57:44,039
from season one of Tournament of Champions because there is drama,

2468
01:57:44,359 --> 01:57:48,840
not actual drama between the chefs. There's there's like stories

2469
01:57:48,960 --> 01:57:52,880
that are organically unfold and I love how every chef

2470
01:57:53,640 --> 01:57:57,560
has like their little tagline their fight name attached to

2471
01:57:57,600 --> 01:58:00,199
them as well. So it's great, it's fun. Any any

2472
01:58:01,239 --> 01:58:04,880
niche competitions, y'all really dig what's that?

2473
01:58:05,119 --> 01:58:07,800
Speaker 2: What's that Japanese Strong Person show?

2474
01:58:08,159 --> 01:58:11,600
Speaker 3: Like it's like strong physical one.

2475
01:58:13,760 --> 01:58:15,880
Speaker 2: I've only seen clips of that, but that's the one

2476
01:58:15,920 --> 01:58:17,920
I'm most interested in. That seems like a good time.

2477
01:58:18,119 --> 01:58:19,600
Just a bunch of strong people who are kind of

2478
01:58:19,680 --> 01:58:22,119
seem very friendly and like supportive of one another.

2479
01:58:22,279 --> 01:58:29,159
Speaker 3: Like that's the energy for me. Uh another competition, Yeah, yeah,

2480
01:58:29,159 --> 01:58:29,359
I'm not.

2481
01:58:30,079 --> 01:58:33,840
Speaker 5: I think the last time it's weird because it's like

2482
01:58:33,880 --> 01:58:36,359
college football, which is not niche. But I only care

2483
01:58:36,439 --> 01:58:41,319
about the pop Tarts Bowl, like single one that matters

2484
01:58:41,399 --> 01:58:45,239
to me and who wins it. Yeah, the pop Tart you.

2485
01:58:45,279 --> 01:58:46,880
Speaker 3: Gotta know about this back is that.

2486
01:58:48,359 --> 01:58:51,000
Speaker 5: You never saw the memes of the pop Tart mascot

2487
01:58:51,119 --> 01:58:54,560
going into the giant toaster and getting eaten by the

2488
01:58:54,600 --> 01:58:55,479
winning team.

2489
01:58:55,520 --> 01:58:57,800
Speaker 3: They kill pop Tarts and he's really yeah, they're real

2490
01:58:57,840 --> 01:58:58,479
happy about it.

2491
01:58:58,720 --> 01:59:01,239
Speaker 5: The first year that guy, the pop Tart mascot, this

2492
01:59:01,279 --> 01:59:04,279
stupid face brought up a science says dreams do come

2493
01:59:04,399 --> 01:59:08,239
true or something. Then he got lowered and then man

2494
01:59:09,159 --> 01:59:11,239
like an actual pop Tart and the winning team like

2495
01:59:11,399 --> 01:59:13,760
just dug in like mid Summar style or whatever.

2496
01:59:14,920 --> 01:59:18,720
Speaker 3: You really need the very online show to come back sometimes.

2497
01:59:18,720 --> 01:59:22,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that would be helpful. And this is during college football. Yeah,

2498
01:59:22,800 --> 01:59:25,039
it's a bowl game. It's a bowl game, like one

2499
01:59:25,079 --> 01:59:26,840
of the big ones. Like I think Notre Dame said,

2500
01:59:26,840 --> 01:59:27,520
we're not doing that.

2501
01:59:29,319 --> 01:59:30,359
Speaker 5: It's one of them.

2502
01:59:30,960 --> 01:59:35,960
Speaker 3: Okay, it's to make them stronger, right, Yeah, I didn't invest.

2503
01:59:36,079 --> 01:59:37,560
Like when I used to go to Royals games grown up,

2504
01:59:37,560 --> 01:59:39,000
they would do the thing where it's like the ketchup

2505
01:59:39,000 --> 01:59:40,880
the mustard and the relish thing would run around or

2506
01:59:40,960 --> 01:59:43,800
like anything where you get assigned like, hey, this is

2507
01:59:43,840 --> 01:59:47,720
your representative for your section, like you know, Minion time style.

2508
01:59:47,840 --> 01:59:50,560
Speaker 5: Yeah exact, Yeah, yes, I agree one million percent. There's

2509
01:59:50,640 --> 01:59:53,039
like I'm told I am in a tribe and this

2510
01:59:53,159 --> 01:59:56,279
is your tribe leader over there. I love that man.

2511
01:59:58,920 --> 02:00:03,560
Yeah yeah, yeah, it's bad. It makes me un comfortable

2512
02:00:03,840 --> 02:00:04,319
by itself.

2513
02:00:05,239 --> 02:00:08,199
Speaker 1: I don't know how, Gang, but I need to wind

2514
02:00:08,279 --> 02:00:10,159
up on the Food Network somehow. I don't think I'm

2515
02:00:10,199 --> 02:00:12,000
the best chef by any stretches I imagine.

2516
02:00:12,359 --> 02:00:14,920
Speaker 4: I mean, I've look, I'm not taking anything away from

2517
02:00:14,960 --> 02:00:18,000
your culinary ability, but it seems like they let all

2518
02:00:18,079 --> 02:00:19,279
kinds of people on that network.

2519
02:00:19,439 --> 02:00:22,319
Speaker 2: Dan, I don't think you're gonna have a problem. I mean,

2520
02:00:22,439 --> 02:00:25,439
don't they do gimmicks all the time. Wouldn't there be

2521
02:00:25,479 --> 02:00:27,199
an episode of one of these shows where they bring

2522
02:00:27,239 --> 02:00:29,319
on the familiar schefts and be like, all right, this time,

2523
02:00:29,359 --> 02:00:33,079
the inspiration is video games. Here's our guest judge Jane

2524
02:00:33,159 --> 02:00:38,920
Choa from Giant Bomb. We're only using fish juice, you know, Jen,

2525
02:00:39,720 --> 02:00:40,600
your time to shine?

2526
02:00:40,840 --> 02:00:42,760
Speaker 3: Gang, I shit, you not.

2527
02:00:43,760 --> 02:00:46,560
Speaker 1: I have crafted. I mean, we we've all probably crafted

2528
02:00:46,560 --> 02:00:50,680
our own strategies for for for game shows. But I

2529
02:00:50,840 --> 02:00:53,600
know the ins and outs a fucking Guys grocery game

2530
02:00:53,760 --> 02:00:57,520
so fucking bad. I know how those aisles are designed.

2531
02:00:58,000 --> 02:00:58,960
Speaker 3: I know how to do this.

2532
02:00:59,359 --> 02:01:03,880
Speaker 1: And here's the thing people, people don't tell you me

2533
02:01:04,039 --> 02:01:06,600
becoming a better gamer, I think, is also just conditioning

2534
02:01:06,680 --> 02:01:10,399
me for for a clean sweep at Guy's grocery games

2535
02:01:10,439 --> 02:01:10,800
one day.

2536
02:01:10,920 --> 02:01:12,560
Speaker 5: All right, what are you going for first? What's the

2537
02:01:12,600 --> 02:01:13,800
first item going in your cart?

2538
02:01:14,079 --> 02:01:16,399
Speaker 3: Baby? You gotta go for the proteins, you know, okay,

2539
02:01:17,680 --> 02:01:20,840
SuperM Like if I have a bunch of supermarket sweep

2540
02:01:21,000 --> 02:01:24,039
knowledge and strategies, would they translate to Guys Grocery games

2541
02:01:24,079 --> 02:01:25,840
at all? Like just filling a cart with turkeys?

2542
02:01:26,319 --> 02:01:29,760
Speaker 1: At the very end, they'd be like, hey, this is

2543
02:01:29,960 --> 02:01:34,199
like an alternative sweetener used in alcohol that's a primary

2544
02:01:34,319 --> 02:01:37,319
ingredient in tequila. And it'd be like a gave, So

2545
02:01:37,640 --> 02:01:39,680
you would have to find out where where the gave

2546
02:01:40,000 --> 02:01:41,079
is in the grocery there?

2547
02:01:41,199 --> 02:01:41,520
Speaker 5: Got it?

2548
02:01:43,439 --> 02:01:46,039
Speaker 2: Is there a video game that's like Guys grocery games,

2549
02:01:46,279 --> 02:01:50,520
like a cheap friends slop game on a Steam I would.

2550
02:01:50,279 --> 02:01:52,359
Speaker 5: Love That's so yeah, it'd be fun. So it's so

2551
02:01:52,479 --> 02:01:55,560
hard when games try to like stimulate the idea of

2552
02:01:55,760 --> 02:01:56,960
judging cooking.

2553
02:01:57,840 --> 02:02:00,720
Speaker 2: Oh sure, yeah, but I I I guess I mostly

2554
02:02:00,840 --> 02:02:03,439
just want the challenge of running through a grocery store.

2555
02:02:03,479 --> 02:02:04,439
Speaker 3: That's mostly what I want.

2556
02:02:04,560 --> 02:02:06,640
Speaker 4: See, I don't want to be on the show. I

2557
02:02:06,760 --> 02:02:09,680
want to host the show here basically, I just I

2558
02:02:09,760 --> 02:02:12,720
want to be Ryan Seacrest and and be allowed to

2559
02:02:12,880 --> 02:02:14,800
tear into contestants on Wheel Offorge.

2560
02:02:14,920 --> 02:02:17,439
Speaker 3: Oh, you would be really good. I want to be

2561
02:02:17,920 --> 02:02:18,479
able to.

2562
02:02:18,800 --> 02:02:26,119
Speaker 4: Just go completely uncensored and tear these people limb from limp,

2563
02:02:26,239 --> 02:02:29,600
like that's what I want deep down in my heart

2564
02:02:29,720 --> 02:02:34,600
of hearts so badly. Oh my god, I fantasize about it.

2565
02:02:34,880 --> 02:02:37,079
Back once a week, Beckler.

2566
02:02:37,159 --> 02:02:40,359
Speaker 2: In the next couple of weeks, I'm I'm gonna try

2567
02:02:40,399 --> 02:02:43,359
to sit you down with me on a discord call.

2568
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:46,960
We should watch an episode, maybe even like an infamously

2569
02:02:47,039 --> 02:02:49,640
bad episode of Wheel of Fortune. I just want to

2570
02:02:49,720 --> 02:02:50,399
put out that time.

2571
02:02:52,600 --> 02:02:54,840
Speaker 3: We need to do that for this week.

2572
02:02:55,640 --> 02:02:58,680
Speaker 1: American Idol and back Home. No so so.

2573
02:02:58,840 --> 02:03:01,039
Speaker 4: I used to watch them a lot of American Idol,

2574
02:03:01,439 --> 02:03:07,119
and I didn't I didn't feel I didn't feel good

2575
02:03:07,199 --> 02:03:09,920
about making fun of people who didn't realize they couldn't

2576
02:03:09,960 --> 02:03:14,800
seure just because it felt like, uh yeah, like it

2577
02:03:15,000 --> 02:03:18,800
just seemed unnaturally mean, where it's like I want to

2578
02:03:18,840 --> 02:03:23,720
be mean to people who make very bad decisions and mistakes,

2579
02:03:24,520 --> 02:03:29,119
and like just yeah, it's the list of things you

2580
02:03:29,199 --> 02:03:30,279
can do to upset me.

2581
02:03:30,319 --> 02:03:33,399
Speaker 3: On wheel of Fortune knows no bounds, so they should.

2582
02:03:34,439 --> 02:03:36,399
Why don't they have a game show with multiple hosts,

2583
02:03:37,439 --> 02:03:40,000
because that's I mean, we all fortune kind of does

2584
02:03:40,319 --> 02:03:42,000
I mean no, no, no, Like at the same time,

2585
02:03:42,119 --> 02:03:44,840
I have not said a word in forty three years.

2586
02:03:46,159 --> 02:03:49,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, one time they led her host was like when

2587
02:03:49,239 --> 02:03:55,199
Wayne left Garth in Wayne's World, where her head seemed

2588
02:03:55,239 --> 02:03:57,319
like it was just going to explode.

2589
02:03:57,479 --> 02:04:00,119
Speaker 3: What about and Temple? You had Kirk fog and.

2590
02:04:01,680 --> 02:04:06,119
Speaker 5: Sure was more of a supervisor. I would say, okay,

2591
02:04:06,119 --> 02:04:11,079
what about Guts? Michael Malley and Mot.

2592
02:04:10,520 --> 02:04:17,319
Speaker 3: Was just the cop was just the ID.

2593
02:04:19,079 --> 02:04:23,000
Speaker 4: I didn't see disqualifying people from the Agro crack because

2594
02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:24,239
they stepped over the line.

2595
02:04:26,079 --> 02:04:30,159
Speaker 5: You can't roll all right, we can't just do whatever

2596
02:04:30,199 --> 02:04:31,439
we want up there on that crag.

2597
02:04:32,159 --> 02:04:35,960
Speaker 3: Just saying mo is the cop of guts? I think,

2598
02:04:36,039 --> 02:04:39,199
I'm I can't believe this is what ends us and

2599
02:04:39,279 --> 02:04:42,800
divides us. Not anyone say a bad word about mo

2600
02:04:43,159 --> 02:04:43,840
that's insane.

2601
02:04:44,119 --> 02:04:47,039
Speaker 4: Anyway, Let's let's let's walk it back to me going

2602
02:04:47,439 --> 02:04:51,000
completely nuts over idiots on wheel of fortune.

2603
02:04:51,920 --> 02:04:55,199
Speaker 3: I guess we could do it? Uh where we Yeah,

2604
02:04:55,279 --> 02:04:57,399
it seems it sounds like we could do something like that,

2605
02:04:57,520 --> 02:05:00,520
grub I would love that. Okay, okay, fantastic. I'll put

2606
02:05:00,520 --> 02:05:01,199
it on your calendar.

2607
02:05:01,960 --> 02:05:06,720
Speaker 1: All right, all right, moving along. Next email comes from Daisy, Hey, duders,

2608
02:05:07,439 --> 02:05:09,439
how the hell do I play games with my husband?

2609
02:05:09,960 --> 02:05:12,199
My husband isn't much of a gamer, but we do

2610
02:05:12,399 --> 02:05:15,319
enjoy playing games together, especially when we can be in

2611
02:05:15,399 --> 02:05:18,199
the same room that isn't our shared office. Both work

2612
02:05:18,239 --> 02:05:21,279
from home. The problem is I'm more of a console gamer,

2613
02:05:21,359 --> 02:05:24,640
and we don't really have multiple gaming setups. We've already

2614
02:05:24,720 --> 02:05:27,479
played all the expected ones, like It Takes Two Split

2615
02:05:27,560 --> 02:05:34,560
Fiction Away Out, MARIOCARTI, Mario Party, Blank Orbitals I don't

2616
02:05:34,560 --> 02:05:37,279
know what they meant by blank Orbitals is already on

2617
02:05:37,439 --> 02:05:39,960
our radar. I've heard PC might be the place to be.

2618
02:05:41,000 --> 02:05:43,760
Having almost no experience with PC gaming, are there many

2619
02:05:43,840 --> 02:05:47,119
couch co op games and decently affordable ways to get

2620
02:05:47,159 --> 02:05:49,560
a setup going in the living room? Love from the

2621
02:05:49,640 --> 02:05:53,560
seven oh seven Daisy ps for context, We're rocking one

2622
02:05:53,640 --> 02:05:57,119
PS five, a switch to and switch one, two Mac mcpros,

2623
02:05:57,479 --> 02:05:59,520
one big TV in the living room, one small TV

2624
02:05:59,600 --> 02:06:02,079
in the guest room, two monitors in the office, an

2625
02:06:02,199 --> 02:06:04,920
old Xbox one, a wee with a couple of game

2626
02:06:04,960 --> 02:06:07,199
cube controllers, and a Nintendo sixty four.

2627
02:06:07,760 --> 02:06:10,880
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, I mean there's definitely more co op games

2628
02:06:11,079 --> 02:06:12,880
out there. Look into some beat them up.

2629
02:06:12,840 --> 02:06:15,239
Speaker 3: See not much more, though, It's yeah.

2630
02:06:16,000 --> 02:06:18,960
Speaker 5: I would say, hey, maybe try to play single player

2631
02:06:19,000 --> 02:06:21,199
games together, actually, especially if you're in a row. Oh yeah,

2632
02:06:21,479 --> 02:06:23,840
Grob and I just played through all of Bully for

2633
02:06:23,920 --> 02:06:26,159
the a Durance run. And I say, I know a

2634
02:06:26,199 --> 02:06:28,039
lot of people who kind of play through games like

2635
02:06:28,079 --> 02:06:30,000
that with a partner or a friend, or you're just

2636
02:06:30,119 --> 02:06:32,560
on the couch. Maybe you passed the control around every

2637
02:06:32,600 --> 02:06:34,279
once in a while, even just one percis control er.

2638
02:06:34,319 --> 02:06:36,840
It's kind of I don't know, it's fun to watch.

2639
02:06:37,000 --> 02:06:39,159
That's how we played there. I feel like I played

2640
02:06:39,159 --> 02:06:41,000
the miss games because we were all working together on.

2641
02:06:41,119 --> 02:06:44,479
Speaker 3: Stuff until dawn. Like those games are that that you

2642
02:06:44,560 --> 02:06:47,119
everyone take a character or whatever, like, okay on these characters,

2643
02:06:47,159 --> 02:06:50,479
you're these some of the Telltale games are like that.

2644
02:06:50,560 --> 02:06:52,880
As well. Yeah, uh, Bonk and I Slay the Spire

2645
02:06:53,039 --> 02:06:54,640
too has been like I really thought it would be

2646
02:06:54,720 --> 02:06:56,720
more gimmicks, side mode or something like that, but it's

2647
02:06:56,720 --> 02:06:58,600
like you're just playing the full ass game with someone.

2648
02:06:58,680 --> 02:07:00,920
So it's fun strategizing, like trying to get your builds

2649
02:07:00,960 --> 02:07:03,840
to compliment each other like that. That's been very surprisingly fun.

2650
02:07:04,199 --> 02:07:06,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, if there's like a story that maybe appeals to

2651
02:07:06,520 --> 02:07:09,680
your husband, Daisy, like y'all could sit back and enjoy

2652
02:07:09,760 --> 02:07:13,319
that together. Like I've heard of a lot of couples

2653
02:07:13,439 --> 02:07:16,760
do playing through Expedition thirty three because you know their

2654
02:07:16,800 --> 02:07:19,439
partner significant other isn't into games but really likes the

2655
02:07:19,520 --> 02:07:22,560
look of it, really likes a story. So maybe dive

2656
02:07:22,640 --> 02:07:23,399
into something like that.

2657
02:07:24,800 --> 02:07:25,960
Speaker 3: Just don't do what it takes.

2658
02:07:26,039 --> 02:07:29,680
Speaker 4: Two They already did it, but they did they had

2659
02:07:29,760 --> 02:07:33,840
what it touched altogether. Okay, I glossed over that fact.

2660
02:07:33,920 --> 02:07:36,960
If you survived that, your marriage can survive anything.

2661
02:07:39,199 --> 02:07:39,720
Speaker 5: All right.

2662
02:07:39,840 --> 02:07:42,720
Speaker 1: Travis and Fargo writes in Every week since in five Questions,

Speaker 5: Oh? Boy, I kind of like a how's it going.

little bit that's okay. Games are thing, sure, super tiring,

2670
02:08:06,560 --> 02:08:07,960
hot Dog Sandwich.

Speaker 5: Yeah those are dumb.

2673
02:08:11,760 --> 02:08:14,039

2674
02:08:14,119 --> 02:08:17,159
lifetime of you know it's fake, right, you know, yeah.

2675
02:08:18,039 --> 02:08:20,479
Speaker 5: My least favorite and it's not doesn't come up as

2676
02:08:20,560 --> 02:08:23,159
much anymore. But if if I told people about my job,

2677
02:08:23,399 --> 02:08:26,479
they'd me be like, so PlayStation or Xbox, and I'm like,

2678
02:08:26,680 --> 02:08:30,640
I don't care. Actually they're good, I guess, or they're

2679
02:08:30,680 --> 02:08:35,199
both bad, depending on the day. They're often in equal sections,

2680
02:08:36,039 --> 02:08:38,840
like whatever, it's their they they're they're boxes that play

2681
02:08:38,880 --> 02:08:39,680
Bay games. It's fine.

2682
02:08:39,840 --> 02:08:42,000
Speaker 3: You could be my therapist. Back in New York to

2683
02:08:42,000 --> 02:08:44,560
would say hello or Mario, which one's better?

2684
02:08:45,119 --> 02:08:49,680
Speaker 5: I don't care. Shut up the same question when you

2685
02:08:49,800 --> 02:08:51,000
talking about.

2686
02:08:52,680 --> 02:08:56,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, back in my seene at time, Uh, it was

2692
02:09:10,279 --> 02:09:13,680
to buy. And I'll tell you a different answer tomorrow.

2693
02:09:14,039 --> 02:09:19,119
Speaker 5: Hell yeah, it's yeah. It's like LG. No one knows

2694
02:09:19,159 --> 02:09:21,239
what the LG stands for, but it's that life's good.

2695
02:09:21,960 --> 02:09:24,039
Looks good, looks good.

2703
02:09:41,520 --> 02:09:44,279
the games I've missed out on parentheses. I did not

02:09:44,479 --> 02:09:47,039

02:09:57,880 --> 02:09:59,760
I feel like there are a lot of cool or

2709
02:10:00,039 --> 02:10:04,039
weird games that have just been completely just completely fallen

2710
02:10:04,159 --> 02:10:06,960
out into the dust bin of history, and it'd be

2711
02:10:06,960 --> 02:10:08,840
great to experience a few of them. Thank you for

2712
02:10:08,920 --> 02:10:10,600

and playing. I was digging up all like the currying,

2722
02:10:40,520 --> 02:10:42,479
put it on the plates and stuff like that. That's

2723
02:10:42,600 --> 02:10:43,159

2734
02:11:19,079 --> 02:11:21,600
Speaker 3: I can't, man, Man, I had to do the thing

2735
02:11:21,640 --> 02:11:23,439
with that super station because like everyone for the last

2736
02:11:23,479 --> 02:11:25,000

02:11:26,720 --> 02:11:29,000
when's mine coming, and that, well, you chose to bundle

2739
02:11:29,079 --> 02:11:30,680
your thing with the super Docs, so you had to

2740
02:11:30,840 --> 02:11:32,560
something or other. And I finally like, I have to

2741
02:11:32,600 --> 02:11:35,479
pay two shipping costs now so I can get it. Now,

2742
02:11:35,520 --> 02:11:37,159
I have to do thirty five dollars for the dock

2743
02:11:37,199 --> 02:11:38,840
and thirty five dollars for this, like whatever, I just

2744
02:11:38,880 --> 02:11:39,920
want to get the fucking thing.

Speaker 5: I regret song at the time, and now I'm just like,

2748
02:11:47,119 --> 02:11:47,880

2749
02:11:47,720 --> 02:11:49,439
Speaker 3: Like how else were we gonna play PlayStation games?

2750
02:11:50,720 --> 02:11:53,279

2754
02:11:59,319 --> 02:11:59,800
Speaker 3: Oh right.

02:12:00,159 --> 02:12:04,239
Speaker 1: Moving on a long Darien from Toronto. This goes out

2756
02:12:04,279 --> 02:12:07,199
to the midwesterners Quad City style pizza.

2757
02:12:07,439 --> 02:12:08,039
Speaker 5: Have you had it?

2758
02:12:08,479 --> 02:12:09,960
Speaker 3: Any? Good cheers?

2759
02:12:10,560 --> 02:12:15,880
Speaker 5: What style? Style? Apparently not, I don't think any of

2760
02:12:15,960 --> 02:12:19,720
us have had Quad City Iowa, Illinois, hand tossed well

2761
02:12:19,880 --> 02:12:24,960
flavored crust, spicy sauce, and toppings, especially finnyl laced sausage

2762
02:12:25,079 --> 02:12:28,239
placed under a heavy layer of cheese, all caught cut.

2763
02:12:28,199 --> 02:12:32,039
Speaker 2: Into long thin strips with scissors, my fucking scissors.

2764
02:12:32,079 --> 02:12:35,479
Speaker 5: Why does that we have the guys the pizza roller

2765
02:12:35,560 --> 02:12:38,800
will do this too. That seems way less convenient than

2766
02:12:38,880 --> 02:12:39,680
the pizza roller.

2767
02:12:40,159 --> 02:12:42,319
Speaker 3: There's a picture of someone here cutting it with scissors.

2768
02:12:43,439 --> 02:12:44,279
How this upsets you?

2769
02:12:44,920 --> 02:12:47,319
Speaker 5: Yeah? So this is yeah, this is something like it's

2770
02:12:47,319 --> 02:12:49,960
probably good Southern Illinois. I see why I say Quad.

2771
02:12:50,000 --> 02:12:51,199
It's where these four states meet.

2772
02:12:51,439 --> 02:12:52,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've not had this.

2773
02:12:53,279 --> 02:12:55,479
Speaker 5: I bet it's fine, although some of these pictures. Boy,

2774
02:12:55,560 --> 02:12:58,920
that cheese could use some more browning. Maybe that's Wikipedia's fault.

2775
02:12:59,439 --> 02:13:00,920
Speaker 3: I don't know. I could be there in five and

2776
02:13:00,960 --> 02:13:02,680
a half hours if we want to do that today,

2777
02:13:02,680 --> 02:13:04,319
if we're gonna taste test, I don't want to do

2778
02:13:04,399 --> 02:13:06,880
it today. Near me. Let me see if there's any

2779
02:13:06,920 --> 02:13:08,319
Quad city style pizzas near me.

2780
02:13:08,439 --> 02:13:08,720
Speaker 1: I like that.

2781
02:13:08,840 --> 02:13:12,880
Speaker 5: Apparently, Like there's just a sausage layer and it's like

2782
02:13:12,960 --> 02:13:20,079
a fenely Italian sausage a I r too? Yeah, me too, sausage.

2783
02:13:21,239 --> 02:13:24,359
Speaker 3: Wrestler sponsored by Pizza Sausage.

2784
02:13:24,439 --> 02:13:27,159
Speaker 5: Like that's not what I meant. Like a layer. You know,

2785
02:13:27,279 --> 02:13:29,079
there's a layer of sauce and a layer of cheese.

2786
02:13:29,359 --> 02:13:31,800
There's a sausage layer. I don't think they just sprinkle.

2787
02:13:31,520 --> 02:13:33,920
Speaker 3: It on like like one big circle of sausage.

2788
02:13:34,000 --> 02:13:36,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that's what How do they do they

2789
02:13:37,039 --> 02:13:41,479
mean when they say layer? Just the sausage is typically

2790
02:13:41,640 --> 02:13:46,640
a thick blanket of lean fennel flexed Italian sausage, sometimes

2791
02:13:46,720 --> 02:13:50,239
ground twice. It's spread from edge to edge, so that

2792
02:13:50,319 --> 02:13:51,840
aspects winning me over.

2793
02:13:52,199 --> 02:13:53,000
Speaker 3: Is like an herb.

2794
02:13:53,600 --> 02:13:55,920
Speaker 1: It's like alb. It looks like an onion.

2795
02:13:56,319 --> 02:13:58,760
Speaker 5: It's almost like a seed fenel. It has a little

2796
02:13:58,800 --> 02:14:01,359
bit of that anise fla. It's very nice. It's it's

2797
02:14:01,399 --> 02:14:04,880
what makes Italian sausage tastes like Italian sausage.

2798
02:14:05,279 --> 02:14:06,880
Speaker 3: Okay, it's got like a little liquorice.

2799
02:14:07,720 --> 02:14:11,159
Speaker 4: Ok Yeah, I put it with Caraway's right.

2800
02:14:11,520 --> 02:14:16,119
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, Fennel huge in cooking competitions.

2801
02:14:16,520 --> 02:14:21,399
Speaker 5: It's true that I'm out, are right?

2802
02:14:21,800 --> 02:14:24,319
Speaker 1: DW from Seattle Rights and Hey Bombers. What do you

2803
02:14:24,439 --> 02:14:27,039
call the genre of games where the goal is to

2804
02:14:27,239 --> 02:14:31,039
go up like ice climbers, getting over it, baby steps

2805
02:14:31,119 --> 02:14:36,800
of Cairen, et cetera. Often suggestions up them ups or uppies.

2806
02:14:37,399 --> 02:14:39,960
Speaker 3: Struggle ups is really good.

2807
02:14:40,800 --> 02:14:42,960
Speaker 2: I think I just call them vertical platformers.

2808
02:14:43,000 --> 02:14:43,359
Speaker 5: Honestly.

2809
02:14:43,439 --> 02:14:45,800
Speaker 2: I mean that's ice Climbers was a vertical platformer. Yeah,

2810
02:14:46,520 --> 02:14:52,760
like Verdies, Verdies going vertical. Yeah, VERTI I was getting

2811
02:14:52,760 --> 02:14:56,920
mad at genre names. I finally saw Project Hell Mary

2812
02:14:57,159 --> 02:14:59,000
this uh this weekend.

2813
02:14:59,199 --> 02:14:59,760
Speaker 3: But you did.

2814
02:15:00,239 --> 02:15:02,920
Speaker 5: It was great, it was fantastic. I thought it was

2815
02:15:03,039 --> 02:15:06,720
a first, the first movie I saw that made me

2816
02:15:06,760 --> 02:15:07,760
feel things in a while.

2817
02:15:07,920 --> 02:15:08,359
Speaker 3: I liked that.

2818
02:15:08,520 --> 02:15:11,239
Speaker 5: Okay, what does that mean? I think I go a

2819
02:15:11,279 --> 02:15:13,560
lot of movies. I'm kind of just numb at the images,

2820
02:15:14,000 --> 02:15:17,319
and well, you hate them all happening at me? Yes,

2821
02:15:17,399 --> 02:15:19,960
because you hate them all? Yeah, well very good.

2822
02:15:20,199 --> 02:15:23,640
Speaker 3: Yeah right, No, that's fair too. I'm glad you felt

2823
02:15:23,680 --> 02:15:24,960
something I did.

2824
02:15:25,079 --> 02:15:26,640
Speaker 5: But like there's a part of me that like still

2825
02:15:26,720 --> 02:15:30,319
feels disenfranchised because like this is just a movie and

2826
02:15:30,359 --> 02:15:32,279
it's like, oh, it's you know, it's a bit uplifting

2827
02:15:32,359 --> 02:15:33,920
and it's like kind of as a happy ending, and

2828
02:15:34,000 --> 02:15:38,119
then everyone's like it's that's a hopecore movie, and I'm like,

2829
02:15:38,239 --> 02:15:40,359
back in my day, man, the movies that were sad

2830
02:15:40,399 --> 02:15:42,079
were like called grim darkers, and now we have a

2831
02:15:42,279 --> 02:15:44,479
special name for the movies that just don't make you

2832
02:15:44,560 --> 02:15:46,319
want to go hurt yourself after you see them.

2833
02:15:47,520 --> 02:15:51,359
Speaker 2: The part of that is like we're always just colonizing stuff,

2834
02:15:51,399 --> 02:15:53,520
so like new like new people come along. They're like,

2835
02:15:54,079 --> 02:15:57,600
I just discovered this thing, and yeah, just ignore that.

2836
02:15:57,720 --> 02:15:58,239
Speaker 3: I was.

2837
02:15:58,319 --> 02:16:00,680
Speaker 5: I'm shocked by how some of the stuff I assume

2838
02:16:01,279 --> 02:16:04,520
is online lingo is actually real life. I was at

2839
02:16:04,600 --> 02:16:08,479

2840
02:16:08,520 --> 02:16:11,079

02:16:18,359 --> 02:16:18,720
rage bait.

2844
02:16:18,800 --> 02:16:22,399
Speaker 3: It's not if it's on TikTok. It's their lingo. Yeah, man, okay,

2845
02:16:22,920 --> 02:16:24,000
and the internet's popular.

2846
02:16:24,920 --> 02:16:29,600
Speaker 4: Yeahs now they have that's the one with the email right,

2847
02:16:29,960 --> 02:16:31,880
just like but like rage bait used to be such

2848
02:16:31,960 --> 02:16:33,840
like that is such a four chan thing and now

2849
02:16:33,920 --> 02:16:34,200

Speaker 7: Uh, Man, that sucks to show people. Actually, I will

2894
02:19:01,079 --> 02:19:04,440
say this on the top. It says day one little

2895
02:19:04,799 --> 02:19:09,559
black book black is bolted. Uh, Claire is checking her

2896
02:19:09,600 --> 02:19:14,840
makeup sitting on a person and that maybe and I'm talking.

2897
02:19:14,799 --> 02:19:18,319
Speaker 3: A person is a person of color. But why why

2898
02:19:18,440 --> 02:19:20,920
is this? Yeah? Why, that's the pertinent question.

2899
02:19:21,440 --> 02:19:22,040
Speaker 5: But why?

2900
02:19:22,799 --> 02:19:22,920
Speaker 3: Uh?

2901
02:19:23,239 --> 02:19:24,280
Speaker 5: And this is a photo?

2902
02:19:24,280 --> 02:19:26,559
Speaker 3: I think this is a shoot photo shoot, uh, for

2903
02:19:26,680 --> 02:19:27,280
this magazine.

2904
02:19:27,319 --> 02:19:28,959
Speaker 2: I can't show you guys the magazine because I might

2905
02:19:29,000 --> 02:19:31,239
give away some stuff from the game we're gonna do.

2906
02:19:31,959 --> 02:19:34,360
But I opened this up and I saw that, and

2907
02:19:34,600 --> 02:19:38,920
and friends, I was confused by this image of Claire

2908
02:19:38,920 --> 02:19:43,040
at Redfield doing her makeup not acknowledging the fact that

2909
02:19:43,159 --> 02:19:44,959
she is sitting on a black person.

2910
02:19:45,120 --> 02:19:51,319
Speaker 5: But what is ad? Yeah, but the AD's calling to

2911
02:19:51,520 --> 02:19:55,680
it by bolting black. What buddy, this isn't an ad,

2912
02:19:56,559 --> 02:19:59,040
This is editorial magazine.

2913
02:20:00,040 --> 02:20:05,840
Speaker 3: Oh you know what? This is Insight. Okay, that actually

2914
02:20:06,639 --> 02:20:08,840
I looked at the bottom. That actually makes a lot more.

2915
02:20:09,120 --> 02:20:11,520
I have that issue in my house. I subscribe to

2916
02:20:11,639 --> 02:20:12,399
that magazine.

2917
02:20:14,399 --> 02:20:15,840
Speaker 5: What is Insight? So let me tell you.

2918
02:20:16,120 --> 02:20:18,840
Speaker 3: Insight was a thing where it's like some some exact Obviously,

2919
02:20:18,879 --> 02:20:20,440
I had the brilliant idea of like, all right, what

2920
02:20:20,520 --> 02:20:22,840
if we took these nerdy game magazines, but we put

2921
02:20:22,879 --> 02:20:25,200
super stars on the cover, like The Rock and the

2922
02:20:25,239 --> 02:20:28,479
girls from Son of the Beach and like, I know,

2923
02:20:29,360 --> 02:20:34,719
like d Basically it's yeahs like The Rock I think

2924
02:20:34,799 --> 02:20:36,000
was on the first of The Rock holding It in

2925
02:20:36,040 --> 02:20:39,799
sixty four controller I subscribed with the first episode or issue.

2926
02:20:39,879 --> 02:20:42,120
I think it lasted definitely less than a year because

2927
02:20:42,120 --> 02:20:43,639
I got a thing in the mail saying, hey, we're

2928
02:20:43,680 --> 02:20:45,159
going out of business, so we're just gonna make this

2929
02:20:45,239 --> 02:20:49,879
an e GM two subscription. Right yeah, it is like, yeah,

2930
02:20:50,479 --> 02:20:55,319
what's what the racism? I think that's that's just a

2931
02:20:55,399 --> 02:20:56,840
happy circumstance for these.

2932
02:20:56,719 --> 02:21:00,120
Speaker 1: Things, like we could just do that merit in an

2933
02:21:00,120 --> 02:21:01,399
American publication.

2934
02:21:01,600 --> 02:21:04,000
Speaker 3: Yes it was, it was, Yes, it was aw So

2935
02:21:04,000 --> 02:21:07,159
it would literally be like we interviewed these six women

2936
02:21:07,239 --> 02:21:09,000
that are on Son of the Beach about dead or

2937
02:21:09,000 --> 02:21:11,680
alive beach volleyball? What's it like avin boobs? How would

2938
02:21:11,719 --> 02:21:13,719
that be in a game? Or just the dumbest shit

2939
02:21:13,840 --> 02:21:16,760
ever it is.

2940
02:21:16,920 --> 02:21:19,680
Speaker 1: It is not a latex suit. If you look closer,

2941
02:21:19,840 --> 02:21:21,879
it is just a dude in shorts.

2942
02:21:22,399 --> 02:21:24,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a dude in like biking shorts, and he

2943
02:21:24,959 --> 02:21:30,120
is he's looking away and there's no other word other

2944
02:21:30,200 --> 02:21:33,000
than objectified. This this man is being turned into an

2945
02:21:33,040 --> 02:21:34,280
object by this photo shoot.

2946
02:21:34,360 --> 02:21:36,639
Speaker 1: All right, well that's crazy, you know.

Speaker 2: This is the ad on the back that I won't

2952
02:21:48,959 --> 02:21:50,760

2953
02:21:50,840 --> 02:21:54,360
It's an advertisement for video game review dot com. It

2954
02:21:54,520 --> 02:21:57,159
is a woman in a towel who looks sad in

2955
02:21:57,239 --> 02:21:59,360
the doorway as a man looking away from her. Hold

It's black and white. Uh what video game is this?

2982
02:23:15,399 --> 02:23:17,559

02:23:17,600 --> 02:23:18,600
a video game ad?

2984
02:23:19,079 --> 02:23:20,719

Speaker 3: Like is this a thing where it's like this is

2989
02:23:27,879 --> 02:23:31,680
for a fighting type of game or is it like, oh,

2990
02:23:31,760 --> 02:23:33,040

2991
02:23:33,079 --> 02:23:33,559
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.

2993
02:23:36,079 --> 02:23:39,479

02:23:55,520 --> 02:23:57,840
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I just think you guys collectively we'll

3001
02:23:57,920 --> 02:24:01,079

3002
02:24:01,680 --> 02:24:02,959

3003
02:24:04,760 --> 02:24:07,159
Speaker 5: This is not Tecand what does the fans have to

Speaker 2: There you guys, go and you can kind of see

3010
02:24:35,840 --> 02:24:38,159
there's some other ones. I can't remember who that one

3011
02:24:38,239 --> 02:24:41,479
is supposed to be because I think these are actual wrestlers.

3012
02:24:42,440 --> 02:24:47,239
There's like, yes, and then again I can't remember who

3013
02:24:47,239 --> 02:24:48,079
that first one is supposed to be.

3014
02:24:48,079 --> 02:24:51,760
Speaker 3: Maybe someone will know. Here's another one after that, New Jack.

3015
02:24:51,959 --> 02:24:54,280
It's New Jazz, Saman New and Salmon.

3016
02:24:54,440 --> 02:24:54,600
Speaker 4: You go.

3017
02:24:55,280 --> 02:24:57,120
Speaker 2: That's a lot of these people at the Horse. They

3018
02:24:57,200 --> 02:25:00,680
got the whole magazine that there was three pages and

3019
02:25:00,760 --> 02:25:03,959
a row. Okay, so then here is the next one.

3020
02:25:04,040 --> 02:25:06,399
All right, Can you guys tell me what game this

3021
02:25:06,639 --> 02:25:09,520
is an ad for. There is a passage there on

3022
02:25:09,600 --> 02:25:11,120
the right. Let me open it up for myself so

3023
02:25:11,159 --> 02:25:13,719
I can read it for people. But the big sort

3024
02:25:13,760 --> 02:25:15,799
of draw. The thing that's gonna draw your eye is

3025
02:25:16,000 --> 02:25:19,840
a big close up on an eyeball. It's someone's eye

3026
02:25:19,879 --> 02:25:21,520
right there with eyelashes and everything that's right in the

3027
02:25:21,559 --> 02:25:24,520
center of the page. And then there is a description

3028
02:25:24,600 --> 02:25:26,799
there on the light the left there that says perspiration,

3029
02:25:27,559 --> 02:25:34,639
dilation of the pupils, trembling, nausea, loss of appetite, dry mouth, kinetic.

3030
02:25:35,799 --> 02:25:35,840
Speaker 6: Is.

3031
02:25:36,079 --> 02:25:40,200
Speaker 2: So it's not Connecticut, It is not wipeout is parasite, Eve,

3032
02:25:41,600 --> 02:25:43,200
This is not parasite.

3033
02:25:43,520 --> 02:25:44,239
Speaker 5: This is not the ad.

3034
02:25:44,639 --> 02:25:46,440
Speaker 3: Also that was around all the time with the eye

3035
02:25:46,520 --> 02:25:49,440
with the eyelashes ripped off and the blood coming down.

3036
02:25:49,520 --> 02:25:51,680
That was it was like a photos It was awful. Yeah,

3037
02:25:51,920 --> 02:25:54,079
you guys can see here. It's a mature rated game

3038
02:25:54,280 --> 02:25:56,840
for the PlayStation one. Yeah, I feel like.

3039
02:25:58,520 --> 02:26:01,840
Speaker 4: I almost I almost approach the is like their Jeopardy

3040
02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:06,120
clues now because I'm not gonna know the game, but

3041
02:26:06,200 --> 02:26:08,280
I'm going to use the context clues in a way

3042
02:26:08,319 --> 02:26:11,120
that like, well obviously the e c W thing, but look,

3043
02:26:11,200 --> 02:26:13,879
the dilation of pupils is in red. I wonder if

3044
02:26:13,920 --> 02:26:18,879
that has any sort of like interesting was well you

3045
02:26:18,920 --> 02:26:21,799
are not ready, right?

3046
02:26:22,200 --> 02:26:25,239
Speaker 1: There was that so you'll frame us too early?

3047
02:26:25,399 --> 02:26:29,040
Speaker 3: Right, this is not fatal frame.

3048
02:26:30,920 --> 02:26:35,719
Speaker 4: There was another there was another horror thing from that.

3049
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:38,360
So this so look at the place. It's the PlayStation

3050
02:26:38,719 --> 02:26:42,239
and I'm assuming right, Yeah, because what was the game.

3051
02:26:42,719 --> 02:26:45,799
Speaker 3: What was the It was a game. It's a horror thing.

3052
02:26:45,959 --> 02:26:48,879
Block It made me think, photo, it's.

3053
02:26:48,840 --> 02:26:52,719
Speaker 5: Not this is not clockedower you take a fear effect

3054
02:26:52,760 --> 02:26:54,559
because there's no lesbians on the said.

3055
02:26:55,680 --> 02:27:00,799
Speaker 3: Yes, we don't know this is lesbian because this is

3056
02:27:00,920 --> 02:27:02,159
fear effect. Everybody.

3057
02:27:05,200 --> 02:27:07,799
Speaker 4: Actually, that's two for two for Backlar today. By the way,

3058
02:27:08,840 --> 02:27:11,559
you look at me, go uh so with an assist

3059
02:27:11,719 --> 02:27:13,000
I think I think Mike and I.

3060
02:27:14,520 --> 02:27:15,520
Speaker 5: I said, it's not.

3061
02:27:18,040 --> 02:27:18,479
Speaker 3: Because I was.

3062
02:27:20,639 --> 02:27:22,200
Speaker 2: One of the things I blocked out here was symptoms

3063
02:27:22,280 --> 02:27:27,159
of fear right, that the effects of fear right. So yeah,

3064
02:27:27,159 --> 02:27:29,319
and then it has all the images here on the

3065
02:27:29,360 --> 02:27:31,280
other side of the page. But yeah, that's an ad

3066
02:27:31,360 --> 02:27:34,360
for fear effect, one of the rare ads for fear

3067
02:27:34,360 --> 02:27:37,000
effects that does not focus on lesbians.

3068
02:27:37,280 --> 02:27:41,680
Speaker 4: The trick that was like a stationary camera stuff too, right,

3069
02:27:41,799 --> 02:27:43,760
that was I think we had a.

3070
02:27:43,840 --> 02:27:45,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, that probably had a fixed camera.

3071
02:27:45,399 --> 02:27:47,920
Speaker 5: Yes, that game looks really good.

3072
02:27:47,959 --> 02:27:51,000
Speaker 1: Still, Hey, you know what, you know what shouts out

3073
02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:51,559
to lesbians?

3074
02:27:51,639 --> 02:27:57,200
Speaker 3: Huh absolutely, I mean worked, it worked in the advertisement.

3075
02:27:56,600 --> 02:27:59,280
Speaker 2: But just cool people across the board. Absolutely, all right,

3076

Speaker 1: Fan fantastic. Thank you Jeff Grub for that lovely little game.

3079
02:28:07,639 --> 02:28:10,440
I get all my fashion advice now from lesbians. I

3080
02:28:10,520 --> 02:28:12,360
don't trust dudes. Oh yeah, any of it.

3081
02:28:12,520 --> 02:28:13,559
Speaker 3: I don't like it. I don't like it.

3082
02:28:13,879 --> 02:28:17,000
Speaker 1: Mike Minatti, hit me with some YouTube super chats please

Speaker 3: Have any we do.

3085
02:28:18,680 --> 02:28:21,520
Speaker 5: Flobble Tron says Jane and Dan should really play the Warriors.

3086
02:28:21,600 --> 02:28:25,399
It's a great brawler with fantastic atmosphere, has shoot pouch

3087
02:28:25,479 --> 02:28:27,479
co op and a two D side score of brawler

3088
02:28:27,559 --> 02:28:29,559
game within a game. My game is Game of the

3089
02:28:29,639 --> 02:28:31,639
Year two thousand and five. I reviewed it.

3090
02:28:31,799 --> 02:28:32,879
Speaker 3: I liked it a lot. I thought it was a

3091
02:28:32,920 --> 02:28:34,879
really cool thing. I would have liked to see more

3092
02:28:35,040 --> 02:28:38,040
kind of cult classic movies turn into modern video games.

3093
02:28:38,319 --> 02:28:38,959
It's a cool idea.

3094
02:28:39,040 --> 02:28:41,120
Speaker 4: I mean, for sure, I would love to just play

3095
02:28:41,200 --> 02:28:45,280
a Diehard one game like you follow every scene.

3096
02:28:45,040 --> 02:28:46,000
Speaker 3: In Time one.

3097
02:28:46,159 --> 02:28:47,680
Speaker 5: That seems like that would be a lot of fun.

3098
02:28:47,760 --> 02:28:49,399
Speaker 3: I reviewed. I gave it an eight point eight. I'm

3099
02:28:49,399 --> 02:28:51,879
looking at my review right now. Wowat I like him.

3100
02:28:52,879 --> 02:28:56,319
Speaker 5: Martin Hallis says pragmat I'm more like swag Matta game

3101
02:28:56,440 --> 02:28:58,319
has stop. It's a good looking game.

3102
02:28:58,639 --> 02:28:59,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like it.

3103
02:28:59,399 --> 02:29:02,079
Speaker 1: A lot of chunky tech, yeah.

3104
02:29:02,280 --> 02:29:05,799
Speaker 3: But fast chunky tech fast yeah yeah yeah, just like

3105
02:29:05,959 --> 02:29:06,280
that's me.

3106
02:29:07,799 --> 02:29:11,879
Speaker 5: Shift Zombie Porn says, you guys know what there is

3107
02:29:12,000 --> 02:29:14,479
to do in Denver? I'm going there tomorrow apparently. Good

3108
02:29:14,600 --> 02:29:17,920
luck with the whole getting poisoned thing, Grubb or.

3109
02:29:20,239 --> 02:29:20,280
Speaker 3: No.

3110
02:29:20,440 --> 02:29:23,399
Speaker 2: Dinver's a great city. There's lots to do. I guess

3111
02:29:23,440 --> 02:29:25,559
there's the like sixteenth Street, Mack.

3112
02:29:25,719 --> 02:29:29,000
Speaker 3: I think that's right. That's like an outdoor area. It's

3113
02:29:29,079 --> 02:29:29,479
really nice.

3114
02:29:29,520 --> 02:29:32,040
Speaker 2: They've really built it up, but gets kind of busy, hectic.

3115
02:29:32,319 --> 02:29:33,920
I don't know what you're in the mood for. If

3116
02:29:33,959 --> 02:29:36,200
you like pepsi products, there's a lot of that. It's

3117
02:29:36,200 --> 02:29:38,000
a pepsi city. I was telling Michael the other day,

3118
02:29:38,079 --> 02:29:40,399
like our pepsi cities, and that's one of them, because

3119
02:29:40,399 --> 02:29:43,280
I think they have a headquarters there, so oh yeah,

3120
02:29:43,360 --> 02:29:43,760
comes out of.

3121
02:29:44,799 --> 02:29:45,719
Speaker 3: It, comes out of the faucet.

3122
02:29:45,959 --> 02:29:51,920
Speaker 2: You could smoke a lot of weed in Denver, and then.

3123
02:29:52,000 --> 02:29:54,840
Speaker 3: There's a lot of breweries as well, so get fucked up.

3124
02:29:54,879 --> 02:29:56,040
I guess that's maybe what I'm saying.

3125
02:29:57,399 --> 02:30:00,280
Speaker 5: Daniel Bradley says, tuned in late so sorry, this was

3126
02:30:00,280 --> 02:30:03,319
already addressed. But if I rate The Giant Bomb the

3127
02:30:03,399 --> 02:30:06,399
Giant Bomb Podcast five stars, does that mean it's only

3128
02:30:06,639 --> 02:30:12,360
as good as Metro Prime four? Like than that? Yeah,

3129
02:30:14,120 --> 02:30:21,000
favorite joke original, which is the best part, Miggsy says.

3130
02:30:21,760 --> 02:30:25,600
Excuse me, says Jeff Grubb. Will you ever go back

3131
02:30:25,639 --> 02:30:28,280

3132
02:30:28,760 --> 02:30:29,920
Speaker 3: God? Did I not finish it?

3133
02:30:30,239 --> 02:30:31,200
Speaker 5: Joseph Farrymore.

3134
02:30:32,120 --> 02:30:35,239
Speaker 2: I have the controller for it, and I always meant

3135
02:30:35,280 --> 02:30:35,799
to go back to it.

3136
02:30:35,879 --> 02:30:38,120
Speaker 3: Let's do that. Yeah, I'll find sometimes too. That for sure.

3137
02:30:38,440 --> 02:30:39,719
Speaker 5: That's one of those games. Every time I see it,

3138
02:30:39,760 --> 02:30:42,040

02:30:46,399 --> 02:30:49,840
I finished Residueval six this weekend, all four campaigns finally done.

3141
02:30:49,879 --> 02:30:52,239
It sucks real bad. You've gotta play it. I'm gonna

3142
02:30:52,239 --> 02:30:54,479
play the game eventually. It's gonna be the last one

3143
02:30:54,520 --> 02:30:57,280
I play if and look, maybe we'll make content out

3144
02:30:57,319 --> 02:30:58,680
of it. But if I get to it where it's

3145
02:30:58,719 --> 02:31:00,559
my next one, I'm gonna have to play that game

3146
02:31:00,600 --> 02:31:01,040
on my own.

3147
02:31:02,159 --> 02:31:03,440
Speaker 3: No, you have to save it.

3148
02:31:04,360 --> 02:31:07,319
Speaker 5: Let's get it go. Well, let's get to six. Thing

3152
02:31:12,520 --> 02:31:13,799
Speaker 1: We should draw names from a hat.

3153
02:31:14,399 --> 02:31:19,079

3196
02:33:47,079 --> 02:33:49,639

3197
02:33:49,719 --> 02:33:50,639
the Diar game right there.

3198
02:33:50,559 --> 02:33:53,959
Speaker 5: Ye trilogy, but the trilogy to for this one.

3199
02:33:53,959 --> 02:33:56,680
Speaker 2: Actually it doesn't follow. It doesn't follow the movie. You're

3200
02:33:56,680 --> 02:33:59,200
still you know what I'm saying because I never I

3201
02:33:59,319 --> 02:34:00,319
never played at.

3202
02:34:01,879 --> 02:34:03,879
Speaker 3: Three and it was three different genres. The first one

3203
02:34:03,959 --> 02:34:06,079
was the third person shooter, second one was a light

3204
02:34:06,159 --> 02:34:07,920
gun game that you could use the gun con for,

3205
02:34:08,200 --> 02:34:11,000
and the third one is this insane, fucking violent, crazy

3206
02:34:11,120 --> 02:34:13,959
taxi for Diehard with the vengeance. It's awesome. I love

3207
02:34:14,079 --> 02:34:18,360
Diehard t so like in New York City like the movie.

3208
02:34:18,479 --> 02:34:19,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's just.

3209
02:34:20,120 --> 02:34:23,760
Speaker 3: Vehicular manslaughter, like non stop, like wiping chunky blood off

3210
02:34:23,799 --> 02:34:26,760
the thing with like a bad Sam Jackson impersonator, and

3211
02:34:26,840 --> 02:34:29,440
there's like a it is a weird fucking game. I honestly,

3212
02:34:29,479 --> 02:34:32,120
one of my favorite PS one games is Diehard Trilogy. Okay,

3213
02:34:32,680 --> 02:34:35,120
second one too, called Viva Las Vegas that was sent

3214
02:34:35,159 --> 02:34:37,040
in Vegas and obviously not tied to the movies, but

3215
02:34:37,120 --> 02:34:38,079
Diehard trillity.

3216
02:34:37,799 --> 02:34:39,239
Speaker 5: That's what this one, and that's my thing is like

3217
02:34:39,319 --> 02:34:42,159
I don't even I didn't know Diehard Trilogy to existed

3218
02:34:42,319 --> 02:34:43,920
till like five years ago, and I had the first

3219
02:34:43,959 --> 02:34:45,479
one and liked it a lot, And I still don't

3220
02:34:45,479 --> 02:34:48,159
really understand what it is. It doesn't sound like it's

3221
02:34:48,200 --> 02:34:50,440
the three different gameplay modes thing again.

3222
02:34:50,719 --> 02:34:52,360
Speaker 3: It's it's a totally different thing. Like I remember reading

3223
02:34:52,360 --> 02:34:53,719
the reviews and being like, this is not what I want.

3224
02:34:53,799 --> 02:34:56,120
But there's also Diehard Arcade, which is done my deca,

3225
02:34:56,200 --> 02:34:59,280
done my cap. I remember that a lot of like

3226
02:34:59,360 --> 02:35:02,440
early you stuff like pre you should move qut stuff. Yeah,

3227
02:35:03,680 --> 02:35:04,760
all right, mikes.

3228
02:35:04,799 --> 02:35:07,559
Speaker 5: He's back and says Dan, When will you bring back

3229
02:35:07,680 --> 02:35:09,879
Jason to any of the Giant Bomb podcasts? Would be

3230
02:35:09,879 --> 02:35:13,000
cool if he part time in Giant Bomb, though, bring

3231
02:35:13,200 --> 02:35:15,479
a striker into something, I think so I love I

3232
02:35:15,559 --> 02:35:17,040
love a striker. I'd love to catch up with them.

3233
02:35:17,280 --> 02:35:19,840
Yeah he's awesome, make me, he says Jan. Do you

3235
02:35:21,719 --> 02:35:25,520
Speaker 1: A hot dog code? Kay, just like we wouldn't shut

3236
02:35:25,600 --> 02:35:29,719
up if the fiberless members of the team had fiber

3237
02:35:30,200 --> 02:35:33,319
If I could get you a couplon code for hot dogs,

3238
02:35:33,680 --> 02:35:35,520
you would have known twelve years ago.

3239
02:35:35,719 --> 02:35:38,639
Speaker 3: All right? For hot dogs though, those are basically free,

3240
02:35:38,680 --> 02:35:44,079
aren't they? I mean, right, the only other.

3241
02:35:44,000 --> 02:35:46,399
Speaker 1: Word out of my mouth that I say most frequently

3242
02:35:46,680 --> 02:35:48,680
other than the random bullshit, it's just dog.

3243
02:35:48,840 --> 02:35:51,760
Speaker 3: Why don't I have a hot dog code? Good point?

3244
02:35:51,799 --> 02:35:53,520
I had a Nathan's hot dog in Vegas and it

3245
02:35:53,639 --> 02:35:55,360
was the first time had one a while and still

3246
02:35:55,399 --> 02:35:58,200
pretty good. That's good. Yeah, good hot dog.

3247
02:35:58,559 --> 02:36:01,680
Speaker 5: Yeah that dog zombie porn, says the local news person

3248
02:36:01,760 --> 02:36:04,559
here was talking about people taking breaks from their phones

3249
02:36:04,600 --> 02:36:09,120
and calling it digital raw dogging. Wait wait, wait what

3250
02:36:10,600 --> 02:36:13,479
say that? A local news person here was talking about

3251
02:36:13,520 --> 02:36:16,879
people taking breaks from their phones and calling it digital

3252
02:36:17,559 --> 02:36:20,399
raw dogging. Is that we're to say TV doesn't makes

3253
02:36:20,440 --> 02:36:21,920
sense digital raw dogging?

3254
02:36:25,040 --> 02:36:26,120
Speaker 3: No, that's the thing.

3255
02:36:26,440 --> 02:36:30,479
Speaker 4: What this is demonstrating is that the hellscape in which

3256
02:36:30,520 --> 02:36:35,200
we all currently occupy dictates that everything must have a

3257
02:36:35,360 --> 02:36:37,200
funny fucking phrieze about it.

3258
02:36:37,360 --> 02:36:39,159
Speaker 3: But you can't just put down your phone. It has

3259
02:36:39,239 --> 02:36:40,559
to be digital raw dog.

3260
02:36:41,200 --> 02:36:42,280
Speaker 5: Making us to have a clip.

3261
02:36:43,559 --> 02:36:46,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, but it may be well, Jan careful there, buddy,

3262
02:36:46,399 --> 02:36:48,479
some of them might accuse you of being old.

3263
02:36:49,559 --> 02:36:53,520
Speaker 2: Okay, no means you're doing the thing without protection, so

3264
02:36:55,280 --> 02:36:58,040
without I understand, and I.

3265
02:37:00,719 --> 02:37:05,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I share the frustration with everyone. It's like it's like,

3266
02:37:05,280 --> 02:37:08,719
oh my god, you sneezed without it, you're raw dogging sneezing.

3267
02:37:09,000 --> 02:37:13,280
I get it, I understand. Like what's happening? Like its

3268
02:37:13,319 --> 02:37:14,440
fucking dumb as hell.

3269
02:37:15,440 --> 02:37:18,120
Speaker 5: It's kind of funny when we said raw dogging flights, right,

3270
02:37:18,200 --> 02:37:19,920
that was kind of funny, but like, yes, that was

3271

3272
02:37:23,079 --> 02:37:23,319
it is?

3273
02:37:24,319 --> 02:37:27,559
Speaker 3: Everything? All everything is now is everyone trying to be

3274
02:37:27,760 --> 02:37:29,520
the one to be the funniest.

3275
02:37:30,600 --> 02:37:33,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, get fucking hopecore movies.

3276
02:37:33,000 --> 02:37:37,680
Speaker 4: Now, exactly like everyone And because our society has valued

3277
02:37:38,120 --> 02:37:40,879
virality in such a way that it forces everyone to

3278
02:37:41,079 --> 02:37:46,959
just compete with language and vocabulary. Manbody, I am, I'm

Speaker 5: You have to play that hard video game for like

3330
02:40:08,479 --> 02:40:10,120
forty minutes before you get to that part that you

3331
02:40:10,200 --> 02:40:10,680

Speaker 5: Thing and everybody's stopping a good time, Dan, and I

3336
02:40:20,840 --> 02:40:22,959
want to be clear, you have not played as much

3337
02:40:23,000 --> 02:40:26,159
of this game yet as I had to play a virtuo.

3338
02:40:26,319 --> 02:40:27,600
So all right, I hope.

3339
02:40:27,440 --> 02:40:30,559

Speaker 3: I have no promises on that.

3342
02:40:37,680 --> 02:40:40,680
Speaker 1: I heard on like a show somewhere that someone said

3343
02:40:40,840 --> 02:40:43,360
it was like a postgame interview was Tournament Champions, and

3344
02:40:43,440 --> 02:40:45,000
they asked him, one.

3345
02:40:44,920 --> 02:40:47,600
Speaker 3: Of the cooks, how'd you feel after that battle?

3346
02:40:47,719 --> 02:40:49,159
Speaker 1: And then they had said like, man, I'm just a

3347
02:40:49,200 --> 02:40:51,760
bundle of nerves, and then they looked at no one

3348
02:40:51,799 --> 02:40:52,559
else in the room.

3349
02:40:53,159 --> 02:41:00,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we did my mon like he's ruferencing virtuos. Realize, No,
