1
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, it's Tuesday, June ninth when you're seeing this,

2
00:00:26,879 --> 00:00:30,280
but it's still June seventh for us over here, we're

3
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,439
still down in sunny Los Angeles for Summer Game Fest.

4
00:00:33,719 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Giant BombCast.

5
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm your host, jan Ochoa joining me co Captain of

6
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,479
the ship is slicing and dicing through time.

7
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,439
Speaker 3: Shank, Shank, Shank. I'm just over here, hanging out. I'm

8
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:46,159
glad to be alive.

9
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: Speaking about being alive, he's he's listening and doing cartwheels

10
00:00:51,679 --> 00:00:53,159
all over this studio.

11
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: He's mopping the floors.

12
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,759
Speaker 1: He's gonna clean up that beautiful mug over there at

13
00:00:58,759 --> 00:01:00,600
home with Crosby.

14
00:01:00,759 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 4: It's me, I broke both my hips.

15
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 2: Speaking about his hips. His hips don't lie.

16
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: He tells nothing but truths, and he'll always smile and

17
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:16,560
look you in the eye at Backler. Yeah, this isn't

18
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,319
a bit you're dying.

19
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 5: No, I just I'm okay.

20
00:01:22,079 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 3: I'm just very never said I'm okay when he's okay.

21
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 2: That's true.

22
00:01:26,239 --> 00:01:29,519
Speaker 6: It's just it really started to hit me after the

23
00:01:30,519 --> 00:01:34,680
Abby and Alex and Greg and George and Patrick segment.

24
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 2: Those people weren't here.

25
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,359
Speaker 5: The first second. It was like it was like my

26
00:01:40,599 --> 00:01:41,680
mind was like maybe that was.

27
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 7: Friday, maybe last Friday.

28
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,159
Speaker 5: I don't know what's going on. I think it's a

29
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:51,239
combination of just like, yeah, I guess you know.

30
00:01:51,359 --> 00:01:53,079
Speaker 6: I used to make fun of people who complain about

31
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,760
the three hour time difference.

32
00:01:54,359 --> 00:01:56,439
Speaker 2: But right, it's awful.

33
00:01:56,599 --> 00:01:57,879
Speaker 5: It does something.

34
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm fine over here and I traveled.

35
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 7: Yeah.

36
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 5: No, we're trying to figure out why.

37
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 7: Yeah.

38
00:02:03,719 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 6: So and then I'm flying back tonight for a red

39
00:02:06,439 --> 00:02:08,479
eye and I don't know mistakes or me.

40
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:11,759
Speaker 1: You're gonna be okay. We got Sean producing behind the

41
00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:12,560
ones and twos over there.

42
00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 2: Hi Sean for the first time.

43
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, there we go.

44
00:02:16,759 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: No one will ever know Mike and Dan are out

45
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,240
on assignment. They're just running around la.

46
00:02:23,719 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 7: Yeah.

47
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,759
Speaker 3: They're not even seeing video games. No, They're like they're like, hey.

48
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 7: Let's go see we can get mugged. Yeah yeah, yeah,

49
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,159
Oh did you hear that?

50
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,159
Speaker 1: Chuck and I had to escort Dan to a liquor store. Sorry,

51
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,400
we had to escort Dan to a liquor store because

52
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:39,639
you grub.

53
00:02:40,599 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 2: I don't know why he didn't hit you up. Yeah,

54
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,199
so it takes two people to replace.

55
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 7: What it is? Cool?

56
00:02:45,159 --> 00:02:48,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then we just walked to a liquor store

57
00:02:48,759 --> 00:02:51,199
and then I asked, like, Dan, you could have just

58
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,360
walked here is the block away.

59
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,039
Speaker 2: It's like, well, you know, like what if something happens,

60
00:02:55,159 --> 00:02:56,879
nothing happened, nothing happened.

61
00:02:56,879 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 5: What if something happened, we'd move on.

62
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, La has been pleasant.

63
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 2: I love LA. That's what they say, will hit them

64
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,639
with a song. I love Ah. It's beautiful. We can't

65
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,479
talk much about Summer Game Fest though.

66
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:17,439
Speaker 3: Mike said that Pico Park is neat Sonic Peaco Park,

67
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,199
thank you, yes. And then Dan's like got a list

68
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:22,360
of games he wants, the one he's really excited about,

69
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,240
but you like, we just can't talk about it until

70
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,879
like literally later this year.

71
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:27,159
Speaker 7: It's nuts.

72
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: It's weird that they're doing that because, like I've heard

73
00:03:29,319 --> 00:03:31,639
a lot of the embargos are like kidding around July.

74
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: If not later later.

75
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:34,919
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean they're just gonna take this like some

76
00:03:34,919 --> 00:03:36,680
of these traveling circuses and go out and do it

77
00:03:36,719 --> 00:03:37,719
in Europe or something like that.

78
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:40,919
Speaker 7: But it does take the air out of the balloon

79
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,599
a little bit. Here. What we're just saying is it almost.

80
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 5: Makes it like not a pressed thing.

81
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, the whole purpose.

82
00:03:46,599 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 5: Of this right is that? And it sort of extracts that.

83
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,280
I don't we talked about this. I can't remember when

84
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,280
we just discussed this.

85
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: It might have just who could know?

86
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:55,719
Speaker 7: Who could?

87
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 6: But everything just feels out of sync. It feels like

88
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:03,479
entity are not communicating, not in a nefarious way.

89
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 7: And sorry Mike, and I hear the giant.

90
00:04:14,319 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 6: Yes, Yeah, everything just seems discombobulated in a way that's

91
00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:20,800
like this is inefficient.

92
00:04:20,959 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 3: It's it's I bet it's I bet they think it's

93
00:04:23,319 --> 00:04:25,120
very efficient for them. I bet they don't do it

94
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,079
again this way next year.

95
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's different.

96
00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 6: Because they've also never done it this way where it's

97
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,920
been so disjointed.

98
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel really bad for like it makes sense

99
00:04:33,399 --> 00:04:34,959
for all of us to come because we're putting on

100
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:35,360
a show.

101
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, we have our own reasons for coming.

102
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,079
Speaker 2: We need all hands on deck.

103
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: And then you know, we see kind of funny sending

104
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,160
Greg and then blessing Andy for a.

105
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 7: Day or two.

106
00:04:42,959 --> 00:04:46,519
Speaker 1: But if you're like a freelance journal or games media

107
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,560
person and you're traveling from out of state, it's really

108
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,560
hard to justify like making the way over here because

109
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,399
of how things are.

110
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 3: Right, I guess like Xbox had like their fan fest thing,

111
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,079
but that is not like a press thing.

112
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,639
Speaker 7: You don't go to watch that thing. We can't talk

113
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,279
about some of the showcases we've seen.

114
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:05,519
Speaker 3: I did want to bring up one thing, and it

115
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,480
is going to bring the mood down for my friend

116
00:05:07,519 --> 00:05:09,720
Sean over here. Have you guys seen what's happened with

117
00:05:09,759 --> 00:05:13,920
Crazy Taxis since it got announced. I heard Mike and

118
00:05:14,439 --> 00:05:17,480
talking about yea, so they are saying, hey, we're using

119
00:05:17,519 --> 00:05:20,079
generative AI to help with this game, and so everyone's

120
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,199
like going from being super excited, like damn it, no,

121
00:05:22,319 --> 00:05:23,519
come on, we just didn't want to.

122
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 7: Have to think about it for this game that we

123
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:25,720
were really looking forward to.

124
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: Should have put that in the trail?

125
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, well are they using I two beat me to?

126
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:33,879
It's using a I two.

127
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 6: For it, like just the AI and then all of

128
00:05:36,759 --> 00:05:38,519
a sudden, like the T and the X come in

129
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:46,120
and it's like Taxi that would have been.

130
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 7: Bye.

131
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 5: I'll be here for next year's AI text Chris Mexican.

132
00:05:51,959 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did get I did bring like a bunch

133
00:05:54,879 --> 00:05:57,560
of stuff from home that we wrapped. I don't know

134
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,160
when that's going to be a video or whatever, but

135
00:05:59,399 --> 00:06:01,600
we'll get something with that, But I did leave one thing.

136
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,120
It's this question mark from I believe this is from

137
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:06,399
Lewis Garcia.

138
00:06:06,519 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 7: Someone opened that as well.

139
00:06:08,439 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 3: See here it's got question marks on it.

140
00:06:11,319 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 7: In sympathy is.

141
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 3: What the card says, see you soon from Balin. Okay, Well,

142
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,600
that's terrifying. I think we're gonna be bladed with ballin

143
00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:25,079
Wonder Old by the fans at some point.

144
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:26,519
Speaker 7: It's a real threat.

145
00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 3: I've actually played ballin Wonder World and it's surprising it

146
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,199
hasn't been on Blake Club yet.

147
00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 7: But the game that came with it is Little Dragon Cafe.

148
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:35,920
What did you know what that is? No idea, I

149
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,680
have no idea what that is. So thank you and

150
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:39,560
fuck you Lewis.

151
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,399
Speaker 2: Folks are almos gonna be a little shorter pod.

152
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: We're all pretty exhausted and we got a bunch of

153
00:06:45,079 --> 00:06:45,959
stuff to still do.

154
00:06:47,399 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 3: We are going to go to play days still all

155
00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:50,480
us here. We're gonna we are going to go see

156
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,360
these games. But to talk about one.

157
00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:54,199
Speaker 1: Day, you know, my highlight of play Days so far,

158
00:06:54,959 --> 00:06:57,639
besides running into friends and everything and all that jazz,

159
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,639
they had these little snack olives. Oh yeah, a little

160
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,759
bag super sick.

161
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 5: And those cucumber potato chips were not bad.

162
00:07:07,319 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 7: I have tried those.

163
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:13,439
Speaker 4: The free stride uh kittles were. Dan came around on

164
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,079
them eventually, but they're weird.

165
00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: You a horror of Dan eating choos?

166
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:25,879
Speaker 6: Oh, we like like an actual raccoon, like when no

167
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,959
one's looking, how a raccoon must.

168
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 5: Eat in a dumpster?

169
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,399
Speaker 7: It was like two little hands.

170
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:32,319
Speaker 6: It was just so insane, like and he ate it

171
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,759
in a way where like if he didn't have this medicine,

172
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,560
he was going to go into cardiac or like he

173
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,199
needed it to survive and.

174
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,399
Speaker 2: No one's taking them from him.

175
00:07:41,439 --> 00:07:44,879
Speaker 6: No, I can't even We're not even like exaggerating.

176
00:07:45,279 --> 00:07:49,199
Speaker 4: It was like an up starting to unwrap, shoving it

177
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,279
into the mouth as it unwrapped, but the rappers not unwrapping.

178
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: Just like Sean, did you see any of this?

179
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: It was kind of like he was cracking open a

180
00:07:59,279 --> 00:08:02,040
pack of cars and then shoving them directly.

181
00:08:02,399 --> 00:08:04,199
Speaker 7: Which is how you open Pokemon cards.

182
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 6: Like in a way that like it was almost like uh,

183
00:08:07,959 --> 00:08:12,199
someone you know, like an astronaut who needed oxygen and

184
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,759
found like a bag with oxygen.

185
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:14,279
Speaker 7: It was just.

186
00:08:14,199 --> 00:08:15,439
Speaker 2: Like the.

187
00:08:17,879 --> 00:08:20,639
Speaker 7: Head drug underwater like it was.

188
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,439
Speaker 5: It was horrifying.

189
00:08:22,519 --> 00:08:25,439
Speaker 6: Yeah, and and his and he's putting the Empire wrapper,

190
00:08:25,839 --> 00:08:27,439
which god knows where it was.

191
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: Always was his mouth. What does that mean?

192
00:08:31,839 --> 00:08:33,159
Speaker 7: But they.

193
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:41,159
Speaker 6: Come on, it was it was crazy man, straight up

194
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,159
fing car but Dan.

195
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,279
Speaker 1: At this point, we've seen State of Play, the s

196
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,240
GF Showcase and now the Xbox One, the Nintendo One

197
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,039
might have happened, might have happened.

198
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, baby Zelda Acria, time goun announced or something. Who

199
00:08:55,759 --> 00:08:58,159
could say, but yeah, that that's that's the bummer of this.

200
00:08:58,519 --> 00:09:00,399
We are gonna be traveling, which we could talk about

201
00:09:00,399 --> 00:09:02,519
it here, but we'll have plenty of coverage. We'll have

202
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:03,679
some sort of talk over.

203
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:04,279
Speaker 7: Figured that out.

204
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,519
Speaker 2: Any highlights from y'all from the week.

205
00:09:06,639 --> 00:09:11,039
Speaker 6: Well, the funniest thing is that of everything there at

206
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,360
play Days, and someone said this to me, I did

207
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,480
not Everyone gonna be like, Oh, it's just baggler trying

208
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,440
to pinball his way into a conversation. One of the

209
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,559
only things people can actually, like realistically talk about is

210
00:09:22,639 --> 00:09:24,399
the Transformers Pinball.

211
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 7: Super not even finished. It's like, yeah, it's a prototype, Yeah,

212
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:27,840
I mean it's there.

213
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,759
Speaker 6: It's a one of one, so it's like the it's

214
00:09:29,759 --> 00:09:32,440
the prototype one. It is close to a production unit.

215
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,399
There's just the caveat of like, hey.

216
00:09:35,919 --> 00:09:38,039
Speaker 5: And it's really good.

217
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,759
Speaker 6: It's really good that I actually was really impressed, even

218
00:09:41,799 --> 00:09:43,720
more so than with the Pokemon game that I hadn't

219
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:48,000
played before. But like, it shoots really well, it's super smart,

220
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:50,240
it's got a lot of toys. The cinematics and it

221
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,919
did you see are cinematics or like Alex we were

222
00:09:53,919 --> 00:09:58,799
there with Navarro and Minati and it just the video

223
00:09:58,879 --> 00:10:01,600
that they grabbed for it looks really really good, really.

224
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,159
Speaker 2: Said, she was super duper into it.

225
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:04,159
Speaker 7: It's awesome.

226
00:10:04,639 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: It's awesome.

227
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,799
Speaker 7: Is Vinny gonna be okay with this? Like he's gonna

228
00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:08,120
like it?

229
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 6: I mean, I feel like he's gonna he's so sort

230
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,399
of like passionate about it.

231
00:10:13,399 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 5: He's gonna be upset, like something's gonna upset him. I

232
00:10:16,039 --> 00:10:17,240
don't know what's gonna upset.

233
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 6: I think like the optimist Prime being looking real chunky

234
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,559
in that compressed, sort.

235
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 5: Of top down vide. I think everyone's nerves are gonna do.

236
00:10:25,799 --> 00:10:27,879
Speaker 7: But like the pinball won't be the problem.

237
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 6: No, the pin balls not yet, I don't think, and

238
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,240
I don't think the theming like is bad, you know, for me.

239
00:10:33,279 --> 00:10:36,960
It's like, I couldn't care about frenchformers, but it shoots.

240
00:10:36,639 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 7: Really really well.

241
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 5: It's got really cool ramps.

242
00:10:38,799 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 7: And yeah, yeah it's dope.

243
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 2: What's it's like gimmick? What's it's different?

244
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 7: There's nothing.

245
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,039
Speaker 6: I don't think there's anything like stuper stand out. It's like, oh,

246
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:50,519
no game's ever done this before.

247
00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:51,879
Speaker 5: It's just got a lot of like really.

248
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 6: Inventive shots on uh drop targets, like blocking rounds and

249
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,519
stuff like that in ramps, Like it seems like a

250
00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:00,720
really good shooting game.

251
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 7: Nice.

252
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 6: It's got a weird pop bumper location or like Godzier,

253
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,639
so the pop bumper is like that iconic thing where

254
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,279
like the balls go okay. It's got a pop umper

255
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,559
like on the in the bottom right of the playfield,

256
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:14,159
kind of like Godzilla game, which people are like.

257
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,279
Speaker 7: Oh, they're putting pop bumpers.

258
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, it shoots real well. I'm into it.

259
00:11:18,799 --> 00:11:22,279
Speaker 1: Will anything from any of the showcases you really stuck

260
00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:24,519
out to you nothing crazy.

261
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,159
Speaker 4: I The only one that's fresh in my mind is

262
00:11:27,159 --> 00:11:30,840
the Xbox one. So that Vivarium one that was very ghibilisque.

263
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like that.

264
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna try to say the name, but it's

265
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,240
that like my summer games, Japanese games, like going around

266
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,720
doing little things. And then I'm really looking forward to

267
00:11:41,799 --> 00:11:45,159
Metro twenty thirty nine. Yeah, I love the Metro game.

268
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,799
They're just they just are really fun to play, So

269
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,120
those will be cool.

270
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 3: I mean, who can carol about any of that when

271
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,279
you just got to wait or Call of Duty to

272
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,159
close out the show and just everyone.

273
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,519
Speaker 2: Away baff like so bad.

274
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 3: I didn't like, I wasn't even on my radar that

275
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,559
they would do that again. And then as it's starting

276
00:12:06,639 --> 00:12:09,600
up and realizing that's what's he's like mad Booty comes

277
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:12,080
on stage and it's like building it up as like

278
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,279
one last thing, and it's Call of Duty again.

279
00:12:14,399 --> 00:12:18,039
Speaker 1: And Sean pointed it out like Booty had said, like

280
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,120
some they've been with us since the beginning, the beginning

281
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:21,799
of what right.

282
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 7: Just not maybe.

283
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,279
Speaker 3: Like I'm not even joking, And I do think Copilot

284
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,519
wrote a lot of that, and it's like Copilot's just like,

285
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,759
I don't know, that's what you say in this spot

286
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,440
is the thing's been with this a long time.

287
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 7: It's been with us since the beginning.

288
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 3: They just they don't know, they don't care it's it's

289
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,559
weird to end with that, even though Call of Duty

290
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,320
is still as big as it is it is, but

291
00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:46,159
it doesn't get anyone excited, especially DMZ. Even Call of

292
00:12:46,279 --> 00:12:49,360
Duty fans aren't excited about even the extraction shooter part of.

293
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,159
Speaker 4: It, even if they had never done DMZ or any

294
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,000
of that before. It just wasn't It didn't look like

295
00:12:55,759 --> 00:12:58,279
especially with games like Marathon now and all this, like

296
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,399
it just and then the weird helmet cam and I

297
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,039
was like, it's something broken it here.

298
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,879
Speaker 5: I don't they played the wrong video.

299
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 2: I don't know.

300
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,879
Speaker 7: I just trying not to be super negative, but I

301
00:13:10,919 --> 00:13:12,440
was just like even that I couldn't help. But I'm like,

302
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,600
this is boring, yeah, paffling. Yeah.

303
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: And then like the game is taking place in Korea, right,

304
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,840
and like you can take advantage of so many different

305
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,000
like looks and everything, and they.

306
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,919
Speaker 7: Can, but you can't have no clowns allowed, So no fun.

307
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: No k pop, no btes.

308
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:29,039
Speaker 3: You have to be they have to be so carefully

309
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,440
to walk such a straight line that it is returned

310
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,399
to a blandness that even Call of Duty hasn't had before.

311
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,080
It looks more like like like a crossfire or something

312
00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:41,080
like completely just sauceless across the board, a different Crossfire

313
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,000
than the Crossfire we're seeing now exactly, although who knows,

314
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,919
maybe they're related. I don't yet, but the old Crossfire games, Yeah.

315
00:13:46,799 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 2: Was there anything you did really enjoy?

316
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 3: Greb, I mean yeah, but I mean it does feel

317
00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:52,919
like this is where because we can't talk about a

318
00:13:52,919 --> 00:13:54,399
lot of these games we're playing. Like the things that,

319
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,840
like the conversations everyone's going to keep returning to, are

320
00:13:56,879 --> 00:14:01,039
the Xbox exclusive stuff called Indy McCall of duty, the

321
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,799
AI generated stuff for Crazy Taxi and Tupac, Like these

322
00:14:04,799 --> 00:14:06,720
are gonna be the things that keeps going back to

323
00:14:06,879 --> 00:14:10,759
because we stuff that's fun, like were fun games. People

324
00:14:10,799 --> 00:14:13,360
are buzzing about stuff we can't talk about it.

325
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, for anyone that may have missed it, we didn't

326
00:14:16,159 --> 00:14:18,200
talk over it. But like the mix of Showcase, Yeah,

327
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,480
I had a bunch of really cool things, indie stuff

328
00:14:21,399 --> 00:14:25,039
out of the show big showcases we covered though. I

329
00:14:25,039 --> 00:14:27,600
think I've like turned around on God of War.

330
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, lay Yeah, Loufi. I don't know she's called Fay,

331
00:14:32,639 --> 00:14:33,919
but it's it is Loufi.

332
00:14:34,159 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 7: I think.

333
00:14:34,559 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's like an Icelandic artist and she pronounced ouse.

334
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 3: I what kept saying that it just didn't sound right,

335
00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:46,159
which is.

336
00:14:45,399 --> 00:14:46,279
Speaker 7: Hell, yeah, all right, great.

337
00:14:46,399 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 2: I did say, here's someone call it broad of war.

338
00:14:49,879 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm with you.

339
00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:54,639
Speaker 3: I think deb brand Wool getting to star in a

340
00:14:54,679 --> 00:14:56,000
game is cool because she's cool.

341
00:14:56,399 --> 00:14:58,159
Speaker 5: Has anyone said fatos yet?

342
00:14:58,519 --> 00:14:59,279
Speaker 7: Oh that's good?

343
00:15:00,039 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 8: Oh there we go worldto Yeah, and it's supposed. It's

344
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,360
not supposed to compliment the story or like be a

345
00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:10,399
continuation of it.

346
00:15:10,399 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 4: It's alongside the first game.

347
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:12,159
Speaker 7: Yeah.

348
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 3: It's like while they're going up the mountain or whatever

349
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,519
they're doing in Gotta War twenty eighteen, she's in the

350
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:17,360
underworld doing this.

351
00:15:17,759 --> 00:15:20,559
Speaker 1: Like I think I've like I watched the video that

352
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,120
the dev's put out and seeing jack Quaid and like

353
00:15:23,159 --> 00:15:25,639
a PBC pipe climb.

354
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:27,159
Speaker 7: I like that cube.

355
00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 4: Do you think he'll transform?

356
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 7: I hope not.

357
00:15:29,919 --> 00:15:30,799
Speaker 2: I hope not.

358
00:15:30,879 --> 00:15:32,519
Speaker 7: But do you think that? I don't think. I don't

359
00:15:32,519 --> 00:15:33,879
think so. I think you got to commit to that

360
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:35,679
I think.

361
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 4: No, Yeah, but I wasn't sure. It's like, oh, the

362
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,320
cube's got a fox form or now a human form,

363
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,799
or like at some point they free the jack the

364
00:15:47,919 --> 00:15:50,360
jack Quaid character out of it, where he's.

365
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 7: Cursed to be a kid or like that. That's a possibility.

366
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,679
I don't think so. I think the Cube is the guy. Yeah.

367
00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: That and Wolverine still yeah yeah, really really fucking meat.

368
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, definitely, definitely. Yeah. There was a couple games in

369
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:03,919
the Xbox showcase that looked all.

370
00:16:03,919 --> 00:16:06,279
Speaker 2: Right, it looks beautiful. It was really good.

371
00:16:06,399 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 7: That Magician the Magician, Yeah.

372
00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 4: Right, Magician's nephew, Mortals of Avia Magicians, huh yeah, yeah,

373
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,039
throwing cards.

374
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 7: There was plenty of cool stuff.

375
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 3: But yeah, right now, I'm kind of just like hearing

376
00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:21,320
good things from people playing stuff.

377
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,919
Speaker 7: Like you know, Orbitles looked great in its last trailer.

378
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,159
I'm hoping we could see more of that in the

379
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,519
Nintendo direct and they're just like going hard on that.

380
00:16:28,799 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: A lot of people are super duper positive on Control Resident. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, gang.

381
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,720
We we got a head over to Playday's ourselves, and

382
00:16:38,759 --> 00:16:40,720
I want to get there before the coffee shop closes

383
00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:41,159
this time.

384
00:16:41,559 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 7: Idea.

385
00:16:42,039 --> 00:16:45,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, yesterday we tried to get afternoon coffee. No one

386
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,000
was in the shop, but it was open. I was

387
00:16:48,159 --> 00:16:50,679
this close to hopping behind the counter, just doing it myself.

388
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's if I went over like there's union involved there.

389
00:16:54,679 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 7: But I could have blocked him. I could have the

390
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,039
door and saved you, and you could have just made

391
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,519
us all coffee. That's what we should have done.

392
00:16:59,879 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: Social video, Yeah, the machine twenty k two or we

393
00:17:03,759 --> 00:17:09,039
