Speaker 1: It's the Internet. You're busy.
Speaker 2: Let's do this. Welcome to Games Decides Podcast. This is
the podcast where we decide everything about the world of
video games, so you never have to think for yourself.
Speaker 1: I'm your host, Jeff Grubb and with.
Speaker 3: Me is aj Manati.
Speaker 2: It's Aj Manati in today's episode. No, I'm not gonna
be able to really talk about it, but we can't
talk about what's next. And hey, games are too expensive,
and rest in peace to Polygon and at least a
lot of people who work there.
Speaker 1: We'll get into all of that here in a little bit.
But first, Aj Manatti, how are you doing?
Speaker 3: I am ready to party, baby, Let's go. Not much happened.
We'll find some stuff to talk about. It'll be great.
Speaker 1: It's credible.
Speaker 3: Let's get a heavy right now. There are super chats
of plenty rolling in. I know the boys appreciate the
support everybody, so keep it up. Uh, it's it's it's you.
You know what's going on. You you you are on
the socials. You're all well connected people, so the support
is incredible and appreciated.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Mike is in Disney. He heard what was going on,
and that's right.
Speaker 3: You know what, No, this is all Jeff's money. Screwed
that guy just just because I went to Disneyland without
him in August?
Speaker 1: How dare I know?
Speaker 3: How dare you go?
Speaker 1: This is?
Speaker 2: I was explaining to Steph kind of how it was
going about Mike being in Disney with the family and
then and then I was like, well to now on tonight,
Trump I have a jam and audio and she's like, well,
that's great, and she's a, wait, why isn't he going?
And I'm like, I think he just went recently? Is
that is that what it was? You guys went recently?
Kind of couldn't justify it again.
Speaker 3: Well, my dad's new thing is that he's going to
rotate between the three groups of grandchildren. So my kids, ye,
my stepbrother's kids every year. So we were twenty twenty four,
Chris is twenty five, my stepbrother Will will be twenty six.
Speaker 1: So I'll go it's fine.
Speaker 3: But Mike the free will and bachelor that is, and
I decided to piggyback on this trip, so off he went.
Speaker 1: I think we call him a spinster, that's what he is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I like that.
Speaker 1: He's an old maid, Yeah, an old maid. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Hey, everybody, thanks for tuning in. I do appreciate I
see all the super chats coming in. Hey, it's it's weird.
It's weird now I did. I have left fandom. I
no longer work at fandom, but I can kind of
now I'm supposed to just say, and I'm looking forward
to what's next. That's where I'm at. That's kind of
what I'm going to have to say going forward for
at least a little while. That's just the way these
things normally go. A big part of it, though, is
there's a lot of people I know who's still work there,
work very hard and are trying to make good stuff,
and I don't want to make things any more difficult
for them, and really, if I could, I would make
things easier for them.
Speaker 1: So we're going to kind of start that now.
Speaker 2: And if you are sending in messages, listen, you're allowed
to have your opinion.
Speaker 1: It's your money.
Speaker 2: But let's try to focus on what's next and making
things as good as we can. But we'll read these
super chats, we'll get into it. If anything is particularly
particularly disparaging, we might have to skip it. But that's
just us trying to make sure we're doing right by
everything here.
Speaker 3: My judgment tonight, Yep, yep, ajon. They work in marketing
and PR, so I know how to do this. Yeah,
I would, I would be hopeless. I'm glad I got
ash guy on the case tonight. All right, let's damn yep.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And man, I see there's a lot of massive
super chats coming in Fro'm like, Kate, let's read this
one right now.
Speaker 1: Kbesquire just sending five hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: Jeesus, Kat, I'm sure I speak for everyone here when
I say, not only will it work out, but your
next steps will be better than ever. Yeah, listen, I
genuinely am excited about the future. I am genuinely excited.
It is something I've always thought about. You know, at
a certain point, you're like, I should just bet on myself.
Speaker 1: I should bet on myself.
Speaker 2: And when you're kind of given an opportunity where it
forces you to do so, it puts things in perspective
and it's really scary. But I want to bet on
myself and I've wanted to do that for a long time.
So we're going to do that, and part of that
is going to be quite a bit more game mess
exactly what that looks like. I am definitely figuring it out.
If you have subscribed A lot of people have subscribed
to the Patreon, but if you if you're in the
if you're in other ways by the being a member
here on YouTube, or if you are a subscriber to
like Mike's Twitch chain, over whatever. I'll put a lot
of details in the discord as we figure it out.
But yeah, look out for more stuff, especially in the
near future'll probably probably be streaming some more make it
some more videos made one today about I think one
of the things we will talk about about Xbox increasing
prices that you know, that was a timely one some
of the more evergreen ones that I plan to do.
Patrons will get those early things like that, and we'll
spend more time on stuff like that, and yeah, and
then we're gonna focus on making the community as fun.
Speaker 1: As possible, as rewarding as possible.
Speaker 2: It already is so great, and shout outs to everybody
who's always been there, and really shout outs to everybody
who made Giant Bomb so much fun to work at.
It really was a dream job and wouldn't trade that
experience for anything, really, truly was.
Speaker 1: Very special and got to do a lot of cool stuff.
Speaker 2: So that all said, let's get in with the show
and like, probably probably nothing special tonight other than we'll
go through some of the news and then we'll do
the many, many, many super chats.

Speaker 3: We're saying to you, guys have got a lot of
new patrons today for some reason. Don't forget everyone, don't
use the iOS app Apple. Yeah, you go to dot
com in the browser, although that could change too. We
didn't really put that in the news, but that Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's let's two big topics of the week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about that.
Speaker 2: That was what I was going to make a video
about that before the price increase happened from Xbox. So
Apple lost a another part of the suit. They've been
appealing going back and forth between Epic Games and Apple,
and the most recent judge that has overseen this appeal
kind of just gave it to Apple. And basically, it's like,
you ignored a judgment or pretended not to understand it,
and we know that you did understand it and understood
it and purposely violated it, and we have evidence of
you in criminal contempt of court by not abiding by
our judgment, and so we are I'm going to recommend
criminal contempt charges against you and the specific lawyer that
works for you, in addition to Apple for violating this.
And really, what it says is Apple cannot take a
cut of a purchase that happens on an iOS device
when someone clicks a weblink and then goes to a
store and purchases something from something outside of the iOS
store that had already been decided basically, but Apple's like, oh,
they just want us to make it cheaper, so we're
gonna make it twenty seven percent still do that instead
of thirty percent no, They're like, no, you're not allowed
to do that at all. And this does kind of
change things quite a bit. Epic said, they'll put Fortnite
back on the store whatever, But I mean, you know
what this is that that iPhone is really an Xbox now, right,
Like everyone can just put their stuff on app the
iOS app store, and then once someone has that app,
they can then give them links that send them out
and over to a store to process payments themselves, and
they can get much more of that money than they
were before.
Speaker 1: That's a pretty big thing, right right.
Speaker 3: We already saw the kind of early ramifications of the
decision affecting the Xbox apps. Recently, they just took the
ability to remote desktop stream out of the main Xbox
app because that app can now purchase games, which is
something the PlayStation app could always do. PlayStation got away
with it by having their ps remote play in a
separate app. So right now, in addition to xCloud streaming,
remote play is just a progressive web app, so the
Xbox app itself could have these payments. That was to
get around that twenty seven percent that Apple was, it
turns out illegally enforcing on purchases made on an app
store content, but like digital purchase in the app, because
they're the reasoning was if you're able to play the
game on your phone through this app by streaming it,
then you the payments count as an in app purchase,
which makes no sense, like if you think about how
that really works. So it's microcfoft's almost premature in that
because now that means in theory they didn't have to
do that, I guess, right. So this still doesn't necessarily
mean like we're going to get like a proper x
cloud app or like a g Force now app that's
technically even possible for a while, but it seems like
these companies are fine just with progressive web apps. But
like I said, what this does is I was kind
of inadvertently alluding to with Patreon, they can use their
own payment processing. They can you know, take those patren
fees the way they do on the website in the app,
and Apple can't touch that money. The Apple only gets
to touch the money if you use their in app
in API payment processing software. So yeah, this is this
is huge because this is a big chunk of what
Epic was fighting. This is what got to kick from
the App Store in the first place when they allowed
third party payments in Iowa's Fortnite without asking, and then
Apple just cut the app entirely. So yeah, I mean
this is this is essentially victory for Tim Sweeney, which
it's kind it's one of those things. It's like I
think it's it's a general good thing for most developers,
but it's like it is from the shittiest person you.
Speaker 2: Know and the worst the worst guy you know, Yeah,
terrible news, the worst guy you know had made a
good point or whatever. Absolutely yeah, yeah, Tim Sweeney is
a big web who just needs to stop talking. But
this was correct, absolutely correct. I mean really put to
put it in perspective, if people aren't necessarily following what
we're getting at, and there's probably a lot of people
listening that like don't really care about mobile gaming at all,
this would be the equivalent of on your Windows PC,
you click an Amazon link to buy something and then Orsoft,
because you're using Windows, gets thirty percent of.
Speaker 1: That money and or still think more.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but you know, or think
about it from your perspective. Let's say you had like
a you designed a T shirt and put it on
te spring and T Spring takes their cut, but if
someone used Windows to buy it, they would get a
thirty percent cut and send it to the Microsoft like that.
It would be that crazy. And that's just how i
iOS has been from the beginning, and it's been.
Speaker 1: Wild that they've actually been able to get away with
it for so long.
Speaker 2: And it makes them a ton of money, makes them
so much money. So of course they're trying to protect it.
I get it, but it's it is. It's something that
should have been broken a long time ago. I think
Europe actually has had pretty good regulations to get this
against this for quite some time now.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, your has full third party stores, you know, Bright
stores available on iPhones in Europe. There's the Alt store
from the guy who makes the Delta emulator that's up
and running in Europe. So we're not caught up. But
this is this is a big jump. Did you see
Epic already is preparing like a version of unreal payments
for iOS app or not real Epic game store payments.
So it's kind of funny because it's a little hypocritical.
But now they're saying, hey, like, if you have an
indie game on iOS and you want to accept payments.
Don't want to give the Apple they're thirty percent. Run your
payments through us. We only take eighteen percent. But the
first million dollars is fee free. And for a lot
of small indie games, they never hit that million dollar threshold,
So I mean, why wouldn't you, But it is kind
of disingenuous again, forced person, you know, but yeah, these
guys can't get their cut. That's unfair. We should get
a cut though, because we're gonna run your payments now.
Speaker 2: I mean, we all know what this really is. Tim
Sweeney wants his money, like we know, like all the
pudding that was it was another supercar.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2: It's what always rught me the wrong way is we
know it's about you putting another car in the garage.
Speaker 1: It's not really about the little developer.
Speaker 2: And you can say that all you want, we know,
but at the end of the day, this is going
to benefit the smaller developers.
Speaker 1: So it's just like whatever.
Speaker 2: I'm not even here to argue with you anymore. TIMPs
when you did it very cool, I do wonder like
does this like put a crack in the console stores,
like you know, what's the difference.
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, exactly right. You know, people talk about Steam
coming to Xbox. Could this be a legal requirement for
that to happen? Because fundamentally, the closed garden of a
console is no different than the closed garden of a
phone when you start getting down to it, especially modern consoles,
which are basically just PCs anyway, So yeah, it'll be
interesting to see what kind of slippery slope because Microsoft
wants this. They want that Microsoft Xbox Store on phones.
Speaker 1: They want it on PlayStations, right, they went on switches.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I don't think at this point, and again
I think this is part of microsoft p auto stategy.
They don't care if other platforms end up on Xbox.
I think they really don't playstational give a shit if
you can buy just epic games directly on the PlayStation
without going through the PlayStation store. Hoh, they like that? Yeah,
could you imagine?
Speaker 2: I know, it's it's it's like almost feels like a
little apocalyptic for those companies where it's like they make
a lot of their money, especially PlayStation but both of
those companies make a lot of them. Well, I mean,
Nintindo definitely makes a lot of money from just selling
a lot of games on there and taking thirty percent cut.
That stuff like goes away maybe like over a course
of like a couple of years as people figure out
other alternative payment methods, could really change the whole value
proposition for them even pursuing consoles in the first place. So, uh,
you know, that is definitely doomsday talk, and that is
slippery slope talk. At the end of the day, this
right now is good for small developers, and that's what
matters if there is some bad thing that happens to
console makers later on, so what they'll figure it out.
Speaker 1: They make a lot of money. Yeah, all right, Yeah,
polyguon guy hit with massive layoffs.
Speaker 2: The of who's it that owns them? I was going
to say The Verge, but it's the current company Vox
Thank you. Vox Media, who does own The Verge, also
owned Polygon. Has apparently sold Polygon to Valnet, which is
a company I never heard of before, but apparently they've
been doing games media for as.
Speaker 3: It's one of those things where they own a lot
of sites. You don't realize things like screen Rant. Oh okay,
it's one of their So it's it's one of those
things that they've been quietly buying up these sites, but
like they don't really put their name on it because
I think they don't want you to know. Yeah, because
they are just kind of a sleazy investment company, right,
but yeah, well that's investment company.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: On Valet. Under their brands, they own game Rant, The Gamer,
f Extra Life, Dual Shockers, Hardcore Gamer, and Open Critic.
Speaker 1: All right, they own someone owns Open Critic, Yeah, critic quest.
Speaker 3: You know that.
Speaker 1: Huh?
Speaker 3: They have Valant acquired Open Critic in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: Tell you what.
Speaker 2: Twelve hours ago that would have made me very mad
as one of the owners of Metacritic, but not anymore.
Speaker 1: That's fine, suck. Yeah, that was a competitor twelve hours ago.
Speaker 2: I will say that I am devastated by this. I
thought Polygon had just really figured it out, and the
reality is they did, and you know, Vox didn't figure
it out, but that team. You know, I talked to
Chris plant At it must have been the Game Awards
or something like that, and he's been sort of the
guy running that place for a few years now, maybe
quite a bit longer than that, and you know, it
was just interesting to hear him talk about how proud
he was, and I was proud of him, but how
proud he was of playing it slow, not trying to
expand super fast when they like maybe had some opportunities,
just trying to keep everyone he had safe and employed
and taken care of.
Speaker 1: And it was just like this such an admirable thing.
Speaker 2: And then meanwhile they're like, they're like, if you were
looking for a sober take on the news from a
written website, you go to Polygon, like you know, you're
not gonna get a lot of fluff there.
Speaker 1: And I love fluff.
Speaker 2: I love the extra I love the Cotaco headlines that
that go hard.
Speaker 1: I appreciate that stuff.
Speaker 2: But there is so much space needed for a Polygon
to just kind of be like, well, it's gonna tell
you what's going on. And then they at the same
time would have like the employed matt Leone, who was
an old one up guy who did who's a features
writer from the beginning. He's been at Polygon from the beginning,
and like once a year he would have like a
big story.
Speaker 1: Or something like that.
Speaker 2: And it's like, man, the fact that you were able
to keep him going doing his thing, you know, at
the slow pace that it would have to work.
Speaker 1: That's just how he worked.
Speaker 2: And he had you know, we talked to fifty sixty
seventy eighty people for a story. It's just so cool
and to have that ripped away in a blink of
an eye. I devastated is the word. I really appreciated
a polygon, really liked polygon.
Speaker 1: And it's going it's going to be missed because this
I don't what does it look like? Now? I have
no idea how did this all come across you?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's it's it's sadly predictable these days. And
not just in the gaming industry. I mean I see
this even in my own industry of higher education, where
you have these tech savvy websites that have a younger,
tech savvy demographic who are successful by all metrics as
far as numbers, and then these people in charge with
their MBAs and they're whatever, who just don't know what
to do with that. They don't they are so stuck
in this kind of data driven numbers go up mentality.
So therefore, if numbers go up, dollars go up, and
that's how the succeed. And they can't think outside that
very narrow box and all these great entities, all these
great writers employees across all these sites that have been
having layoffs. They they they're the ones you suffer for,
you know. And these these tech bros and these CEOs
and everything. You know, they're fine, They're always fine. They
have their golden parachutes. I don't understand how you can't
have a site a successful as Polygon, with the history
of Polygon and not figure out how to make that work.
How you cannot make money off that if you're so
damn smart.
Speaker 1: Yep, it's uh, it's real frustrating.
Speaker 2: And uh, I you know, these companies they kind they
bail and they give up, and when it's like clearly
there is still a ton of value and if you
just stuck it out, you could figure something out. But
you know, at a certain point, I'm just I just
want those people to keep making stuff, and it's a
shame they won't be able to do. I wasn't able
to like because you know, I'm in my feelings today.
I wasn't able to follow the news on this a
ton because it was just like too raw. Has vow
Net said what the plan is like our I mean,
I'm assuming it is ai right, like just put a
bunch of ali Ai slop on there and call it
Polygon still.
Speaker 3: Would think, yeah, but I don't. I don't think Valna
is anything. Vox had a statement that I read earlier.
Let me see I could find it real quick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no problem, I yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: The end of the Crazies is the Vox Media union
was like in the midst of like bargains over their
next contract when this.
Speaker 2: Happened, protections for new productions in case to get laid off, right, yeah,
and it's like, hmm, that's real, just kicking the ass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I uh, I'm I'm a Polygon fan, always was.
Speaker 2: I remember the early days of that site launching and
them having the launch documentary, and even before that, there
was like an announcement video and I always think about
it and if anyone can find this, let me know.
It's different than the I think it's different than the documentary.
But like Justin McRoy just comes on and like the
way he introduces himself is just like he stares directly
in the camera and like everyone's being pretty serious, like
we're gonna take games journalism seriously.
Speaker 1: And Justin mcroy's like.
Speaker 2: In fifty cent Blood on the Sand and then he
like tells a whole story about what fifty cent does
in the game.
Speaker 1: If anyone can find that, send that to me. I
love that so much.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's up like on their YouTube page
or anything only anymore.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, that's It's like, it's just such a
good balance.
Speaker 2: And then shout shout us to Arthur Geese, who's a friend,
but him getting the tattoo in the documentary.
Speaker 1: I also think about that all the time. I'm like, oh,
these guys, come on, but but yeah, that's it's a
it was a cool website, and it's just, yeah, devastating
what happened, all right.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Microsoft is raising prices on just about everything Xbox related.
Speaker 1: You know, I have the list here.
Speaker 2: Xbox Series S five hundred and twelve gigabyte version, Jesus
it was going It's going up to three hundred and
eighty dollars from three hundred dollars. The Series S one
terabyte is going up to four hundred and thirty dollars
from three hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 1: Xbox Series X Digital is going.
Speaker 2: Up man one hundred dollars from five from four forty
nine ninety nine to five forty nine ninety nine, and
Xbox Series X, like the standard version going up one
hundred dollars from five hundred to six hundred. The Series
X two terabyte Galaxy Special Edition is going up from
six hundred to seven hundred thirty dollars. This is bananas.
Speaker 3: It's insane wild.
Speaker 1: I could do that.
Speaker 4: No body, No, Xbox Series X already, I get it,
I get it, but I would slap somebody they said,
I'm gonna buy it Xbox Series X for.
Speaker 1: Six hundred dollars. No, hey, Jeff, how's it going?
Speaker 3: Anything happened today?
Speaker 2: No, buddy, you used to enjoy Disney.
Speaker 1: Disney World's fun.
Speaker 5: I had a nice I could see the fireworks from
my room.
Speaker 1: That was very pretty. That's nice. You've been to the
Tiki room yet. No, we didn't do anything parks off.
Speaker 5: We just had a nice Italian dinner with a very
nice Italian server.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go.
Speaker 3: For a walk, I think, and enjoy the resorts.
Speaker 5: Hey, you just want to stop in and let you
know that I love you, Jeff, Hi a j.
Speaker 1: Love you to.
Speaker 3: Buddy, Like, okay, I gotta go back. This hangs up
like she's like did you. Did he talk to you
today a little bit?
Speaker 1: I guess kind technically, yes, he's.
Speaker 3: Got to call Christy, he's got to call Mic on
his way home.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, yeah, that's Mike and Disney World everybody. I'm
sure he's having a good time. He's yeah, definitely an
Italian server, Italian restaurant, Italian wine too, I think shout
outs to him. All right, Yes, hey, seven hundred and
thirty dollars too, Terriby Xbox Xbox Series X.
Speaker 1: Sure, Okay, it's the big it's a special edition, seven
hundred and thirty dollars, more than a five pro.
Speaker 3: It's just insane.
Speaker 1: What are we talking about?
Speaker 3: I mean, like, okay, so the Series S, let's start.
There was three hundred bucks. That was a good sweet
spot for what that system was. I always viewed Series
S is what I'm using it for. It's the console
you by your kids, It's it's the secondary device, right,
And that two ninety nine was such a sweet spot
for that because that and you know, once you get
over that three hundred threshold, you know, that's when it
feels like you're getting into that upper restaurant of like
this is an iPad, this is you know, this is
more expensive than just like a thing I put in
a secondary position for you Internet. Your box goes way
over that, way over that. But like Mike, Mike said this,
and he texted to me earlier today, Who the hell,
who the hell is buying it? Xbox Series X for
six I wouldn't tell you about five hundred every holiday
they want they went on sale for like three fifty.
I tell people to get one then, But like, don't
even pay five hundred bucks for this machine. It's a
good console, it's a fine console.
Speaker 1: It's not a fine dollars.
Speaker 3: No, it's five years old now, like it's yeah, it's
it's not current tech. It's just not. And and I
think that's what the issue is. You know, even the
PS five Pro. Listen, if you think about a PS
five Pro, buy it now, because if I think you're
gonna let a morks Eventsive Xbox Series X exist and
be like, we could charge more for the psfi Pro,
tariffs are not. Yeah, they're gonna charge more for that,
so buy it. But these are now in the price
tier of a high end premium electronic device, and they're
just not. They barely were when they were new. I mean,
these systems launched with compromises. They we still had performance
mode and graphics mode. You know, if I'm paying premium
price for something, it should be like Mike says, four
K sixty all the bells and whistles, Like otherwise, what
the hell am I doing here? Like what am I
spending my money on if it's still a compromised device? Now, God,
these companies they want to blame it on tariffs, and
I get it, that's the reality that we're now in
right now, but that only goes so far. For again,
nintend an opportunity, THENTENDA could have raised the price of
these systems at the day after they announced it by
fifty bucks one hundred bucks, and we probably would be like.
Speaker 1: Wow, that's shitty.
Speaker 3: Yep, again, it's a five year old box we had
at this point, we should have had like the ninety
nine dollars PS one, right, Like, why are these prices
not already down or why can't they just eat at
the cost as part of like a price reduction of
what their manufacturing is, Like they just don't do that anymore.
I'm sure there's a technical reason why, but this isn't
the way the industry has ever worked. We've never had
prices go up like this.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 2: And it's I mean, I think that's a message in
and of itself. And that's the video I posted today
on this channel. fIF people want to watch that. That
was the point of the video. Is this is a
message to you. We're done growing this business. This is
we're gonna you. You, the motherfuckers that are showing up
for the stuff and watching all our videos or the
we're gonna have a developer director you're watching that. We
want more of your money. You you want these games,
We want more of your goddamn money. You are the
person who's gonna fund this whole thing. If you want
us to keep having this console party, you are gonna
have to show up for it, and you're gonna have
to pay for it, because we're not gonna grow it
by spanning the business into new markets with new people
spending more money.
Speaker 1: That's done. It is about nickel and diming you.
Speaker 2: And Okay, I do want the party to continue, you
don't have to make it so naked that you're taking
advantage of us and.
Speaker 1: And our our sort of loyalty to this way of
playing games.
Speaker 2: But that's one hundred percent where we're at, and that
like all this ignores the fact that what you started with,
who the hell is going to buy these things? Like
no one's buying xboxes?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 3: You know, we were at our stall five hundred bucks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were at a point where we would get
the Xbox numbers, you know, numbers in the report, the
investor report quarterly, and for a while there it was
basically like month or quarter after quarter the sales would
be down thirty percent forty percent. This is hardware sales,
so the amount of money that hardware was generating was
down thirty to forty percent. Several quarters in a row.
It'd be a little bit less here and there might
be a little bit more. There was times where it
was like north of forty percent, So it's like, okay,
the thing has already dropped. Now this last They did
just have an investor report yesterday, I think where they
said it was down six percent.
Speaker 1: Hardware was down six percent.
Speaker 2: So it's not as bad as it was, but that's
because it's already sort of bottomed out.
Speaker 1: You kind of can't go much lower than where it's
already at.
Speaker 2: People are not buying these things, so what what are
what are they hoping to accomplish by raising the price.
I think this is just again a message from them that, like,
we we do intend to keep selling consoles to you,
but it is going to be a very premium price
device going forward, or else we won't do this anymore.
So I mean, god, what does this mean for the
next generation, which we are not that far off from?
Speaker 1: But I don't mean maybe.
Speaker 3: And that's the thing too, like like if you were,
if you're, if you already weren't selling these boxes, what
the hell's raising the price even doing at this point
You're going to sell exponentially fewer than you would have.
So again, Nintendo was fortune it that they had a
generational refresh happening, And that's like I feel like at
least Microsoft, I guess this shows you how done they
truly are with, like you said, growing the console business,
and Microsoft tough it out for a couple of years
and then have that that new box be whatever, astronomical
and never get put on it. You know, is Sony
gonna raise their prices? You know everyone else has? They
kind of they almost have to in a way, like
I think they've.
Speaker 1: Always planned to.
Speaker 2: I think when they raised the prices everywhere else except
for America. I think the only reason they didn't raise
in the United States is they weren't sure where the
tariffs were going to land. They're not sure how much
to raise it by like that, I think that's what's happening.
So yeah, good, go ahead.
Speaker 1: Do you have anything else? Do you're gonna add there? Oh?
Speaker 3: So I was gonna say, when when you talk about
kind of what's next, I don't. I don't know what
your thought is on on next part because micro phil
Spencer has already said, you know, they're they're they're working
on the next Xbox. It's going to be the most
powerful thing you've ever seen.
Speaker 2: Like the greatest I think they said, the greatest generational
leap ever, which I just don't know how that is
physically possible.
Speaker 3: I think I think, honestly the move is if this
is truly where they're going. And maybe people disagree with
my thought on this, but fine, Let's make the premium
product that merits this price. Make it some twelve hundred
dollars machine that is going to actually do four K
sixty with all the bells and whistles, you know, competing
with like a fifty eighty or fifty ninety equipped PC
and then your series S equivalent the cheaper entry way
that you do want to have for kids or you know,
just the guy who's going to play Call of Duty
and Mad. That's where you're streaming, is I guess like
by then, maybe we have the streaming infrastructure where you're
you are selling that one hundred dollars firestick TV device
that is just streaming those games, and that's that's how
you're going to get your Xbox stuff.
Speaker 2: Now, I'm sorry people are hearing discord notifications. I turned
that off earlier day for a reason. I meant to
fix that again. I'll do that here in a moment,
and there it's going again.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, So I just when I look at like, yeah,
what could happen next, You're right, it's like I when
I try to game it out, they probably are.
Speaker 2: Thinking they're going to have to go super like expensive,
super premium. And this does feel like, you know, you said,
who is this four who's going to buy this of
the you know, at this price, Like, if you're not
already selling it, how how does this accomplish anything? And
I think really the only thing it accomplishes raising the
price on the consoles now other than you know, covering
the increased costs from the tariffs and the ongoing you know,
component prices that are pretty high. Other than that, which
you know, they probably should have just eaten that if
they were trying to sell these systems. It sets up
the next generation to be that much more expensive, right
because that you Hey, the last Xbox was six hundred dollars,
so now when the next one is seven hundred, it
feels a little bit more easy to explain. It's like, well,
the last one is that much hundred dollars more.
Speaker 3: I feel like that trick's not going to work this
time because you can't think you're right, gas You can't
gaslight as to say, oh, the last Xbox six hundred, No,
it wasn't, it was. We know, we know, we know
that we were I know we were there again.
Speaker 1: Goolf. Yeah, yeah, I think that.
Speaker 2: I think these companies have played that trick several times now.
In Vidia is actually the worst one at this, you know,
or the most guilty, I should say, they're actually really good.
Speaker 1: They pulled it off over and over and over and
over again.
Speaker 2: But you know, of setting up prices so that the
next generation could be set up to go up even higher,
and then Nvidia had the benefit of like messing around
with the nameing convention. So it's like this one felt
like it should have been the eighty, like the Bank
the XX eighty, but they're calling it in an XX
ninety and or whatever. So they've had their methods. I
think Xbox and all these companies are trying to do
those same tricks and they've reached they've hit a wall.
I think that started with the PS five pro to
a certain extent, and now you know, Nintendo definitely got
some backlash, obviously got a massive amount of backlash of
its prices. I think it benefited a little bit from
the tariff situation, kind of distracting from it, but people
were livid, And now I think this one is the
most egregious yet. And uh, you know, I you know, say,
I'm glad I'm not in their shoes having to have
like figured this all out and navigate what the future
looks like, because they're probably right growing this business is
maybe done. I don't know how you get convinced a
kid to spend three hundred dollars on an Xbox let
alone seven hundred and thirty dollars on a two Terrabyke
Galaxy Special Edition. So so yeah, like but but still
we know what's happening to us. You want more of
our money. No one's going to be happy about that.
In fact, you're going to drive more people to other
other ways of playing games, and that'll probably be for
many of them Steam, which I guess you know, you
sell games on Steam now, Xbox, So I think I
think that's really what the whole diversification strategy.
Speaker 1: Is about, is they are going to be everywhere.
Speaker 2: So even when you try to escape these price increases
from Xbox, well, the other part of this is you're
still going to be buying their games for eighty dollars starting.
Speaker 1: This holiday, so our Xbox games what yep?
Speaker 2: So they said as part of this, some first party
Xbox games will go to eighty dollars. You know on
that video did thumbnail with call of Duty. I don't
know if it'll be call of Duty. I bet it
will be call of Duty, but a lot of like
a lot of their stuff's probably gonna be eighty dollars now.
And you know, Nintendo broke the seal there and definitely
you get mad at them, for sure, but all these
companies were ready to do this. Clearly, there's a reason
that all these analysts have been predicting game prices would
go up again pretty soon. They they had their ear
to the ground. They knew what these companies were trying.
Where we're thinking, and here we are taking advantage of
the moment.
Speaker 3: And that's again, that's what it just feels like, because
you know, the the argument for price increases on software
as well as you know the cost development is just
it's so expensive to make these games, which feels like
a U problem, not a ME problem. You know, we'll
talk about the game later, but you know, I'm playing
Clear Obscure Expision thirty three and I can't everyone I know,
like literally, it wasn't thirty people in a room, but
it was a studio of thirty people plus whatever support
they had, who made this game that looks like one
of the best games I've ever seen in my life,
and it's a fifty dollars game. And like I said,
it's this small studios first game. Why can they do that?
And why can't you figure out whatever you have to
do to make an Assassin's Creed that isn't this bloated
monstrosity that's a little more streamlined, a little more focused,
and rain that budget in so you're not spending you know,
half a billion dollars to make a video game and
then you have to feel like I have to charge seventy
now eighty bucks. It's mismanagement. It's it's you can't tell
me it's a technological issue. It's not.
Speaker 1: It's just not yep, yep.
Speaker 2: It's it's mismanagement really, because yeah, you're right, they've gotten
out at hand the size of these developers, and and
I understand that we as gamers have demands and when
we say we want like you know, cutting edge games,
all these companies field they have to compete with one another.
But Microsoft is like one of those companies that does
like recognize that, Like I remember that, I will reference
it forever. Phil Spencer's note that was leaked in the
FDC stuff where you wrote a letter internally or whatever
was explaining you know, we used to have an advantage
as big publishers of the retail was our space, and
being able to get into retail was this massive advantage,
and all these smaller teams, smaller companies couldn't get into
retail and so just by seeing an Xbox game or
a Microsoft game, you would build a relationship with them
because it was one of you know, twenty companies that
you could buy games from at the store.
Speaker 1: And now things are different. Anyone can make a game
from anywhere.
Speaker 2: And what is the thing that differentiates you and gives you,
like the kind of brand loyalty that something like a
Disney has or a Nintendo.
Speaker 1: What are you doing to accomplish that?
Speaker 2: So he diagnosed the problem and diagnosed like, you know,
and the other part of that was the way that
companies have decided, like, oh, here's all a differential differentiate
myself is we're going to spend more money than anyone's
ever spent to make this game look prettier than any
game you've ever seen before. And that's only sustainable up
to a point, and clearly, clearly we've already passed that point.
So he knows the problem, and he's got a bunch
of teams working for him, and you know, you know,
credit to Microsoft, they've had a lot of smaller games,
interesting games, and then you know, then they'll sell those
studios and send them off and stuff like that. So
I don't I don't know how that's you know, understanding
the problem has manifested into a solution.
Speaker 1: If anything, it.
Speaker 2: Feels like they are kind of still stuck in the
same rut as anyone else I don't know well.
Speaker 3: And then the again, the marketing of it is what
baffles me too, that there's just this not understanding of
what gamers are perceiving, because you know, we have fifty
dollars games for a long time. Then I went up
to sixty. That was like, okay, games are even more expensive,
we get it. And it was sixty for a long time.
Then it went up to seventy, and there was a
little bit of that still that okay, we get it.
Games more expensive. Do you know how long it is
since we got the seventy dollars Xbox game? No, not
even two years. Do you know what the first seventy
dollars Xbox game was?
Speaker 2: I don't remember, right, Yeah, Red Fall, Oh my god,
that was the first one.
Speaker 3: So it's not like seventy dollars been like this established
long term price that like now you try to make
work like no, no, why That's why it feels predatory
in a way. And again you're dealing with a savvy audience.
If you're going to cater to and go after this audience. Sorry,
it's a savvy audience. You can't trick them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and like you know, there are there's some that
are savvy enough to like understand the dynamics beneath everything
of Like you know, in twenty seventeen, the purchasing power
of sixty dollars is equivalent to to eighty dollars now,
so inflation has already happened.
Speaker 1: But no, but everyone, but no one.
Speaker 3: Well, and again not to go too far into an
economics discussion, but that argument holds no water when when
wages don't match the same rate, it's like right, and
it's not again, like I don't care. I have the
same problem money, so not my problem. I guess I'm
your shit like or none, if that's right.
Speaker 2: It's like, we recognize what's happening is you're making it
our problem by raising the price. So you it was
your problem and now you're like, well now it's your problem,
you know ours, and it's okay, Well then what do
you expect us to do here?
Speaker 1: And you know, I I.
Speaker 2: Do think it's going to continue to push a lot
of people out of gaming and clearly. I mean, the
fence is as high as it's ever been. The barrier
to entry to getting into console gaming specifically has never
been this high, except for maybe at the very beginning
when it was you know, you know, those consoles were
pretty expensive when you take in place into account or whatever.
But that that was like a burgeoning medium at that point.
Now that it's well established and commodified and all this stuff,
it shouldn't be like this, but it is. And again,
to me, that message is we're done growing. It's it's
you suckers that are going to pay the bill. And
I don't know how to feel about that other than
like I guess I need to like start rethinking some
things here.
Speaker 3: So game Pass is going to go up again, right,
it has to.
Speaker 2: It's I mean, it's going to go up every two
to three years forever, right, I mean, you know it's
now clearly so our game prices though, So it's just
gonna be back and forth. They're gonna tennis back and
forth between those two things, and they won't be the
only ones. You know, Sony probably announces similar stuff across
the board here pretty soon.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: Do you think Ghost of Yota is seventy I think
they are. Maybe they've already said Ghost to Ota is seventy,
so maybe they can't do eighty on that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like for them to charge eighty bucks
for their first game. I mean, you know, like you said,
Call of Duty for Xbox makes sense. It's gotta be
something that that's you know, like Mario Kart. Like I'm
mad Mario Kart costs eighty. I don't understand why they
costs eighty. But fuck, if it wasn't for the bundle,
I'd be paying eighty bucks for Mario Kart. But you
know what I'm probably not doing. I'm not buying four
more copies for everyone else in my families. We could
eventually I'll get our own switch toes and play. Well no, well,
I'll split screen it or do their SharePlay thing or whatever.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: I can't justify spending three hundred and twenty dollars on
Mario Kart from my household.
Speaker 2: I can't, yep, yep, Yeah, people in chatter commenced they're
going to raise the price of yotay very easily.
Speaker 1: Could very easily.
Speaker 3: Could Yeah, well, wolf eating any bucks that makes a
lot of sense.
Speaker 2: Yep that God, what else would had something in mind,
but now I can't place it again. Game Oh yes, yes,
God that that game's not out for a couple of years.
Speaker 1: So differently you mentioned a real quick uh share play.
Speaker 2: Nintendo updated Switch to or excuse me, Switch one this
week with a new method for sharing your games, the
virtual Game cards. One thing that this did do was
eliminate the like, Christian, are.
Speaker 1: You here still? What do you? What do you call it?
When you have when you sign in your account on
your friends thing? Maybe Christian is laying.
Speaker 2: Down it is you know, I think he calls it
account sixty nine y where you you sign into your
friends account on their switch, they sign into your switch
with their account and then and that way you could
play all their games and then with your account like
signed in or whatever like that like remotely, and then
they could play all your games as well as their
own games. So it's like okay with the share and
this is uh. I do this thing with my family
where we kind of had two switches, and we did
this so that like the kids could play some of
the games while I was using my switch. And one
thing that apparently worked with this, although I remember never
being able to get this to work was you could
both play online at the same time with one copy
of the game. I could get it to work where
it's like you could you know, maybe I didn't have
the family account for the Nintendo Switch online thing happened.
That's I'm like a diagnosing my problem now.
Speaker 3: But I think it was it was something with the
order you launched the games and one had to be offline.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe that's what it was.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you were tricking the system Xbox. That's a similar
thing where.
Speaker 2: Real quick Nintendo had it on their support page as
a recommendation for this is how you could share games.
So this wasn't a you were tricking the system, but
it was a fully like understood and supported from.
Speaker 3: Playing was tricking the system. They wanted to share the game,
but they want you to play. They want again, if
you're playing Mario Kart, they want you to buy two
a coops of Mario Kart to play at the same time,
but they were cool with you playing one at a
time that way.
Speaker 1: Either way, They have removed a reference to this on
their on their support page and it doesn't work anymore
after this new update that has the virtual game cards.
So I've not messed around with it too much. I've
been meaning to but busy. My understanding now is the
way this is only going to work is you're gonna
have to be in close proximity with the person, so
you kind of can't like, oh, do you have a
cousin across the country who's also super into Switch, Well,
it's gonna be harder to share games with them.
Speaker 2: Now you're gonna have to do it and with someone
who's in your Nintendo Switch Online family account, and you
could lend a game to them for fourteen days. Now,
I think, I'm this is still going to be fine
for my situation, but I think it's going to cause
a problem for a lot of people.
Speaker 3: There's there's two ways doing it, So it's either sharing
it within your family account, or you individually can have
two switches red shirt to yourself that you can jump between.
So like this is for people who right now have
like an O lead and a light. This will probably
be for people going forward to have like a two
and a one, so you don't need the family account
for that. The family count is like, you know my
situation where there are five switches in my house, right
we can now all interchangeably share off a digital game,
but it does like remove that entitlement from your system
for that two week period and the handshake has to
happen on a local connection. Now, I don't know. I'm
sure there's a way you could like VPN and create
a virtual network.
Speaker 1: Right and I get around That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the nerds will find a way. But yeah, like
it's better than what we had, but especially compared to
like how Apple on the iPhone iPad, like where I
can just go into the App store buy an app
of my account and everyone in my family just can
also download and use that app freely.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: It's not that I wish it was because God again
I would have to buy five copies of the Mario kard.
I just have that one and everyone could as access it.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm yep.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna mess around with this a little bit though,
and then maybe I'll make a video about it, because
I big on family sharing obviously someone with the family.
Speaker 1: It's worked great on Steam, you know.
Speaker 2: I Valve eventually sent me a second Steam deck when
the o led came out, so I have two Steam
Decks in the house and having that work where it's
like I can actually give one of those to the kids,
and it has all my games on it and they
can use their account, so I could still be on
my account doing work at the same time.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: That seems also the same way though you can't you
can't play in the same more than one place.
Speaker 1: You couldn't.
Speaker 2: Yes, the same game is yes, and that that has
been like, well, it has not been too much of
a problem for me, except for in the situation which
is where like, we want to play this game and
we want to have it both going at the same time.
Speaker 1: Which only happened I think once.
Speaker 2: Really, Yeah, all right, we have a ton of super
chats to get to.
Speaker 1: So what we're gonna do is we're go to take
a break.
Speaker 2: We'll come right back and we will get on top
of that and read all of those right now. See
in a second, all right, we're back into it. Thanks

That's what I do there. Tashi dropped two.
Speaker 2: Hundred dollars, Thank you so much, Koshi and said nothing
but love tonight.
Speaker 1: Excited for the future. We should be. Kitty Catman ninety
three says, I love you guys.
Speaker 2: Dark Steel Bush Brushwag says, sending some cash so you
guys can afford a three hundred thousand dollar retro tink
or however much it's going to cost.
Speaker 1: Now rest in Penis GB.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I'm glad. I'm good with playing my retro games
on a steam deck and at most my analog pocket
because I could, I couldn't keep up with you guys.
Speaker 2: The steam Deck's a great way to play that stuff though,
So yeah, no, no shade to that.
Speaker 1: Although I do love my retro tank Company, I'm like
I did get I got a little extent, you know,
I'll talk about it and what we've been playing. Let's see.
Speaker 2: Kitty Man ninety three, Love you guys, Dark Steel Brushwa No,
here we are. Chao Roberto says, do not go gentle
into that good night. It's it's not brand safe, very
very good.
Speaker 3: The drum that's a good name.
Speaker 1: The chower birth though.
Speaker 2: The drum Kid ninety two says, thank you for breathing
fresh life in the GB. Now the community gets to
breathe it back into you. Oh that's very sweet.
Speaker 1: Let's swap breaths consensually. I love you say it back.
I love you too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just it's like when kids I try to tell
you a secret by whispering into your mouth instead of
your ears.
Speaker 3: And then they just give you bird flu.
Speaker 1: Or something exactly.
Speaker 2: Yes, Lazy Stegosaurus says, you and Mike weren't there for
all of GB, but you were some of the best
of GB. Thank you for the rhyn oh yeah, And
of course shout out to everybody everyone who's ever been
a part of GB.
Speaker 1: It was an awesome legacy to be a part of.
Speaker 2: Nick Turbo says, wishing you to the best Giant bomb forever,
game mess forever.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Nick will O Davis says, I found GMM when Hogwarts
Legacy came out because the gaming news show I used
to watch was totally dismissive of the JK rolling protesters.
Speaker 1: I think that says it all. People are here for
the good vibes. Thank you, will oh yeah.
Speaker 2: And it's one of those situations where it's like, I
look back on that, I'm pretty happy with how we
handled that. I just didn't play it, and I did
not tell anyone else they shouldn't, but I just said
how I feel about it, and I was not judgmental
of anyone who did play it, like I think people
should be able to make their own choices. But I'm
gonna tell you it was hurting some of my friends

wish I could find when he was like a toddler
eating an apple. So god, he has consumed an apple
in his life. I don't know when this started, this
abhorrid like this distaste of apples, but there was a
time when when he consumed them freely.
Speaker 1: You got to get the whole Minati Klan on the
work of finding that.

good time. El Gruggs says, my internet cut out halfway

Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe we'll see I believe it. Walshriss says, uh,
let's see here and dropped a hundred dollars. Thank you
so much.
Speaker 7: So.
Speaker 2: I've been a silent viewer of you guys for a while,
but in lieu of everything, I felt the need to
say something. Started watching a few weeks before and ten
Dog started a new Giant Bomb. But started watching once
all of you showed up there loved GB at Night
and what you did with it. Oh, thank you so much.
That was you know, of everything, most proud of GB
at Night. It's that something was important to me to
keep it going.
Speaker 3: You always killed that. That was always that was the
new E three highlight for me. That that that kind
of brain space it was. It was those streams.
Speaker 1: So yep, yes, thank you so much. Yeah, I was.
Speaker 2: It was very cool to get to do that. So
we'll always have that and we'll always cherish that.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: I think I'm at George now, I'll read the George
one and then let's take a break again real quick,
and then would you be ready to read at that point?
Speaker 1: Then? Aj Or kind of messed up.
Speaker 3: The first one I have is is Colin joining the
Lincoln tier and then it's chat for screaming Matt.
Speaker 8: That's okay, all right, all right, yeah, let's talk, get
on on on the break. I think I have a solution.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well let's take a quick break. Then
we'll be right back after this. Thanks for hanging in.
Speaker 2: Everybody, all right, We're back at it. Plenty more super
chats to get into.
Speaker 1: My little sidebar scroll thing is about halfway up. But
it doesn't refresh automatically, so.
Speaker 2: If the refreshm when we get to the top and
see where we're where we're really at. Okay, we left
off with George, so let's go to not Tony, who says,
if heavy with our beef and cheddar boys, I also
pluck heavy with you, not Tony. Absolutely, Nick says, who
is Jeff Grubb without his steam press account?
Speaker 1: Like they can't take that on? That's fine, that's right.
Speaker 2: I had that before I worked at a Giant bomb,
so that's that is not theirs at all. Jody Pelzel says,
do you recommend an Ambernick RG thirty five xxsp to
someone that has a steam deck?
Speaker 1: You know, it depends on what you're getting it for,
you know. That's the one. That's the one Mike just
picked up from Dan and he took with them because
he wanted some for Disney. Right.
Speaker 3: My girls we got them those for their birthday and
then my son's birthday is in July, but I bought
him his already in case they became scarce. But I
mean the advantage, there's portability. Fold it in half and
throw it at your pocket and you're off the go.
And if you really want to, because it is just
running retro arc, like you can move the save files
back and forth.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it's just retro arc.
Speaker 3: So see if you want to, if you want something
that's more portable than this team deck, Yeah, so again,
and buy it now too before they drive Go on
Amazon get them for like what seventy five bucks and yeah,
good to go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I really like mine. I've ended up playing a lot.
Speaker 2: More of the the Ambernik one that looks like the
original Game Boy Advance, because yeah, that's just because the
the Os was a little bit more updated and I
haven't had a chance buy it to take my sp
and put MoU os on it that that handles the
closing of the screen a lot better and keeps the
battery running longer. I kept closing it and it would
like still run, so the battery would just fucking drain,
and I'd go to pick it on my pocket five
hours later and it barely had any battery left. And
that was pretty frustrating. So I'm gonna sit down maybe
this weekend, get that solved, and I'll start using mine
a lot more.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's see here, I.
Speaker 2: Think we are at keywork, who says keep your head up, y'all.
Everything will work out. If any of the crew need
a cheap vacation to Orlando, feel free to reach out.
I have helped the Manatis once or punish, and I.
Speaker 3: Love you, buddy.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, keywork. You know I'll take you up on
that at some point. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: You've always been very awesome. Alex Be sending a sticker again.
These things are animated and they look cool, but I
can't It's hard to see in the version of YouTube
I'm using because it makes everything super small.
Speaker 1: But thank you so much, Alex B. I really appreciate it.
Speaker 2: David Petal says, how much do we all got to
pitch into fund a gay mess couch at SGF? David,
that's hey, that would be awesome. It's something like if
I could replicate that again someday somehow, I would love
to make it work. But hey, we're just getting started
on this, on this new journey, so you know, don't
expect anything like that anytime soon. Detest says love y'all always.
Christopher Mate or Christopher Matte I want to say, because
I'm thinking of Cherva mode, but I'm gonna say Christopher Mate. Well, says,
I will always fuck with Jeff grabbed Mike, Manatti, AJ
and everyone else.
Speaker 1: Who comes along for the ride. Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Christopher uh Fager zero dropped one hundred dollars and said
a long live the mess cast. Absolutely, we're here. Keep
hanging out with us, everybody. Simon from Saskatchewan his back, says, AJ,
is Mike the only one in your family who has
a bloodlust against dogs?
Speaker 1: Jeff? If Mike keeps refusing to watch and or is
he a bad friend? It's so good? All right?
Speaker 3: I think I think we're losing the fot. Mike saved
the dog. Yeah, ok, I feel like we lose that far.
My sweet dear grandmother just got a little absent minded
and forgot it was tied to the garage or Mike
restricuted it. Okay, he didn't let it hang to death.
He keeps saving night. Let's let let's let's stop with
the uh you know he again marketing and pr here
saying dogs don't have souls was not the.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say the story. It was like the
sort of glint in his eye when he was telling
the story. That was more about that. I think for
a lot of people.
Speaker 2: I feel pretty similar to how Mike feels when people
talk about me playing Kingdom Hearts. So he loves Kingdom
Hearts so much that the idea of like why don't
you like, go hey, Mike, don't you want a force
Cheff to play Kingdom Hearts? That doesn't sound appealing to
him because he doesn't want to hear me talk shit.
Speaker 1: About it and be kind of like bad, Like that
does make.
Speaker 2: Me a bad friend, yes, but he doesn't want to
hear me go off and spout bad things about something
he loves so much and ors very much. That for
me where it's like this is a precious thing to me.
It is so good, so well made. I like can
like in this, especially in that first season. You know,
we're halfway through the second season, so it's a show
that I've rewatched a couple times. For the first season.
I'm like, I'm watching every scene. I'm like, every scene
is a masterpiece. Every scene has so much to say,
It's got so many layers, so much to talk about,
so much to think about.
Speaker 1: And if someone be like, yeah, so it's okay, I'll
be like, you don't get it, and it would just
make me mad.
Speaker 2: So if Mike doesn't want to watch it because he's
not in the mood for watching TV at this point
in his life.
Speaker 1: I think that's probably for the best, and I would
never force him to watch it.
Speaker 3: Jeff I, I watched the first two episodes season one
last week, so I'm finally on that.
Speaker 1: Train and on there.
Speaker 2: Here's what I'll say about those first two next first
three episodes is it might feel like things aren't like
like get like setting up for a payoff.
Speaker 1: Everything pays off.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I I get that sense. I can see
what they're what they're doing here, and uh again, everything's meaningful.
I struggle with any TV is. Anytime I watched he
was like, I could be playing a game right now
because I myself, and that's why I haven't watched much
TV at all. But I do want to. I do
want to watch it. I've been meaning too. And season
two beyond is kind of a good, uh jolt for
me to to to see it through now.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: And the thing about and Or that does really well
and it's doing even better in season two is setting
up like cultures and settings and really making them come
to life. And that fer the Farriks planet and the
culture and the work culture in the way all those
people like look out for each other but also like
have their petty grievances, and how that spins and turns
into something so much bigger. It's masterful's oh, it's so good.
All right, so let's keep going. I can't spend all
the show talking about and or. Dirk Hardpeck sixty nine says,
announce the new project here and now you cowards. Also,
I love you all, and I can't believe Mike skipped this.

for a job of security, I can get you a
gig building drones and a rill. I promise we are
not all fascist. And then that's a very long emoticon
penis there at the end of that message gonna pass.
Although if you really do work there, I hope, I
hope it's true that they're not all fascist, and you
should definitely build a security back door into those things
so we can take them over when they are inevitably
turned against the American public. Quincy Herman says, I fuck
with Jeff Grubb. Lots of love to you, the crew
and the community.
Speaker 1: Debt Left Shrimp says, can we get a live update
from the Rainforest Cafe? Now? I don't Is he gonna
get the Rainforce Cafe on this trip? I don't know.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think that that's in the plan. I mean,
maybe he'll stop by for a photo op at Animal Kingdom,
because there's there are two in Disney.
Speaker 1: There's two, Yes, yep, absolutely.
Speaker 3: Maybe he'll go to the Lava Bar at the one
at Disney Springs. But that's on the itinerary as far
as I knew.

Speaker 1: We won the league.
Speaker 3: We won the league.
Speaker 2: We told the story like how you and your friends
just decided to pick a team because you were like,
we want to get into this, and so you all picked.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's such a fun thing.
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm in a pretty active slack group. That's it
started from a lot of old Squadron of Shame people,
if you guys remember that for days, and then we
did Too Old for This, which was a podcast we
did for a few years, and the Slack channel has
just been going is just now just a virtual friend group.
And a lot of them were into Premier League football
for for some reason, like four or five years ago.
They started picking it up. So I was like, well,
I want in on this, but I don't want to
like and I didn't want to do it because they
all had different teams so that I can't go in
one of their teams. So I got in touch with
my four best friends from you know, when I was
in high school, who you know, we're all Cleveland Sports
diehrds like Okay, let's let's do this. Let's pick a team,
and we're all in. And we did our research on
culture and players and we weren't going for a front
runners or we would have been Man City fans, and
we landed on Liverpool. And I think my wife thought,
like this wasn't a real thing, Like she's like, you're
not a Liverpool fan. You just kind of watch this
and like stop. And I've watched like almost every game
for the last three years. I absolutely love it. I
I it's it's it's almost become my number two sport
after baseball as far as interest level goes. Right now,
I'm actually coaching my son's soccer team this summer, like
that's that's where we are. And my only reference on
how to play this game is watching these three years
of Liverpool, so god knows.
Speaker 2: Oh no, that's way more than enough for coaching a
kid's soccer team, Like yeah, absolutely, yeah, so.
Speaker 1: It'll be fun.
Speaker 3: But yeah, Liverpool clinched the Premier League on Sunday. Uh,
so we won, we did it. Uh And there's still
more games, Like there's still four more games left in
the season.
Speaker 1: I found this out. I love this. The teams were playing.
Speaker 3: Now they have to line up like a tunnel outside
of the entrance to the pitch and applaud us as
we enter. It's called the honor Guard. It's like it's
like the opposite of Smash Brothers, where you're the people
you just came out of the state. You have to
apply for me. It's backwards, but I love it.
Speaker 1: That's fantastic. All right? Where were we?
Speaker 8: Uh?
Speaker 3: Dark brushwag it says, Flake Club Forever? Yes, Sam, right, Uh,

You that's? INCREDIBLE i did not know you were in
the community watching. Along that's. AWESOME i.
Speaker 2: Went to pack seast one time WHEN i really shouldn't
have gone BECAUSE i couldn't afford, it AND i bought
my train ticket on the packs train this the year
AFTER i met, You, aj AND i bought my ticket
like the night to, leave like the train. Ticket i'd
already got my packs passed, by like being pressed or.
Whatever that was mostly a lie, too and they were
out they were sold out the train to go all
the way To, boston but it did go to Like,
Rochester New york or something like. That SO i just
like bought a ticket To rochester and Then i'm, LIKE
i just won't get off the train and see what.
Speaker 1: Happens.
Speaker 2: Uh and eventually the guy did good like he didn't
the year. Before no one ever checked my, ticket So i'm,
Like i'm probably gonna be fine this. Year my ticket
to get checked And i'm, like, Oh he's, like you're
still on the. Train you're supposed to get. Off i'm, like,
OH i THOUGHT i was had a ticket To. Boston he's, like,
well just pay me the difference and it's. Fine so
that worked out, fine but they like AND i was
so preoccupied with. THAT i hadn't figured out like where to.
STAY i had a hotel room for like three nights
AFTER i, arrived but not that NIGHT i did, arrive
And i'm, LIKE i, like oh, shit NOW i got
to solve that. Problem and SO i asked someone like
on the, Train, hey can anyone anyone have a ROOM
i could just sleep in for that? Night AND uh
Had jago apparently was, there AND uh and hooked me
up and that Was, Yeah i'll never forget.
Speaker 1: That there was like scraping by in the early parts
of my.
Speaker 2: Career there are a lot of stories like, that and
there were a lot of people who did have my
back and and supported me and made SURE i found
ways to make things, happen and, yeah just. Can't there's
like a line of one hundred, people one hundred people
long that made it so EVENTUALLY i could be in this.
Speaker 1: Position it's A i WISH i could just. Go thank.
All so thank, you Rad. Jago that's.
Speaker 3: Awesome one more stuck in while you were, Talking, jirachi
Says akrena of Time.
Speaker 1: RULES i promised to replay it, everybody And i'll. Do
i'll do a new. Review all, right let's, SEEK i.
Speaker 3: Says originally the name for the extra chair in hotel
room was the acrea time.
Speaker 1: Fanair oh holy, crap, everybody thank you so much for all.
Speaker 6: That.
Speaker 1: Christians should we tell actually there's another. One we'll read
that real. Quick. Christian should we take another? Break?
Speaker 2: Yes, Please, okay let's let's take one more. Break we'll come.
Back we will clean up any more super chats we.
Get we'll talk very briefly about what we've been. Playing
then we'll get out of.
Speaker 1: Here it's.
Speaker 2: Late, everybody all right back after. This all, right we're.
Back that was a tone of super. Chance we did
get one more ash, guy you want to read, that.
Speaker 1: Yeah Chase sims, says if you ever need to crash
In la you have a. Room thank, You.
Speaker 2: Chasing you guys are the. Best all, Right, UH i
have not been playing. MUCH i did get a so
The flippy DRIVE i got for the.
Speaker 1: Game tell me about.
Speaker 2: This, yes it's it's, awesome but it's been My i've
left my GameCube in a state of disassembly BECAUSE i
ordered another piece that can expand its. Functionality so Real,
normally you get the flippy, drive you put THE sd
card in The flippy, drive you close the GameCube back up,
right so if you need to get back into THE sd,
card and it might support some Like Wi fi stuff
or something like, that but, really if you want, to,
yeah if you want to play more games on, there
really you're probably gonna want to actually get that thing
out and put a ton more games by connecting it
to your. Computer there is an extension cable you can
get that causes. It so THE sd drive kind of
like sticks out a little bit so you can access
without having to disassemble your.
Speaker 1: Game SO i ordered. That it just arrived. Today i'm
gonna connect that up and Then i'm gonna spend this
weekend playing a lot of GameCube. Games.
Speaker 2: Uh, really the assembly or the installation of The flippy
drive itself was super, simple so much easier THAN i
was expecting. That you, know they say solder lists and, like,
okay that's. Great is it still going to be? Complicated
not even a little bit it. WAS i, mean make
sure you're keeping track of all the screws and stuff like,
that and having the game bit. Drive you, KNOW i
had AN i Fix it repair kit that had that
has the game bit drive in. There gamebit drives like
a little bit different than even than like some of
the security screws will have on this. Stuff so, yeah
you're gonna need that. Bit but they, did LIKE i got,
IT i got that, out that's, fine and then you go.
Inside it's just normal. Screws you just got to keep
track of all that. Stuff and if you do, that
it's super easy to do, so AND i guess as a,
Reminder Flippy drive is a replacement for the optical drive
and it's the optical drive emulator without having to replace
the optical drive and the, GameCube which is how a
lot of them. Works SO i could still use the
optical drive to put in discs IF i, want and
then at the same, TIME i have this thing that can,
support you, know put a bunch of games on. There
and then they also made their their OWN i don't
know if they made their own operating, system but they
made their own front end for accessing the games that
is cohesive with the GameCubes operating.
Speaker 1: System so it looks right and feels right and it's
really well.
Speaker 2: Done so looking forward to kind of completing that little
project this, weekend closing that thing back up and just
installing Every GameCube GAME i want on.
Speaker 1: There you have you been spending time with?
Speaker 3: Anything, yeah So i've been playing kind of the hot
and someone else is. On first of, All Clear Obscure
expedition thirty three might be my personal top ten of all.
Speaker 1: Time when it's all, said popping that hard for, you
it really like it hitting fucking, yeah oh my.
Speaker 3: God you, know a turn BASED rpg is good when
you're you're excited to get into a fight on, Purpose
like every battle is, like oh, COOL i get to
fight something and that's going to. Rule there is something
so satisfying about coming out of a fight in that game.
Unscathed like if you pull off all your counters and
it hit the right combos with your party and you
could just get through a fight without taking any. Damage
you feel like you pulled something, off which which is
cool because it still has the strategy elements that a
good turn based system should. Have but then that that
real time dodging and parrying and, everything it's just so so.
Speaker 2: NICE i, mean it feels great to do, right and
it's like it's just a big part of that is
they don't make it so, impossible but it's still. Difficult
and so then they telegraph it with like really good
sound cues and things like, that like a built like
a crescendo almost sort of like a hidden, Crescendo like
the music is crescendo, ween and or the sound effect,
is and so you kind of feel it in your.
Bones i'm supposed to paary you, now and when that,
works that's WHAT i. Think that's where the satisfaction comes.
From obviously it looks so.
Speaker 1: Good the animation really does leap off the, screen everything
that particle just to got everything right about. It it's so.
Speaker 3: Good i'm so drawn into this role of the story
and these. Characters when they had that kind of first
big show of the game at The xbox showcase where
we kind of learned the premise of The painter and
and everything like like stuff like, that like it's so
creepy to, me like like, like what's her? Story why
is she doing? This like these people just Disappear like
it's compelling in the way The thanos staff is, compelling,
right because it's like people are, Gone like what you
do about? That i'm, Like i'm so excited to like
finish the game and find out more of the why
of this world and like what's going. On so it's
it's pulled me right. Along and, boy it's just it's
so good. Looking it's so good, looking and and all
the performances from all the actors are just. Incredible it
does that thing where you, know and a lot of
role playing, games the dialogue kind of gets a little.
Stilted you could tell like they weren't in the same room.
Recording you, know you have like these dot dot dots
written into the dialogue that just feel flatt and here
like everything just flows so. Natural characters are interrupting each,
other talking over each, other arguing with each. Other it
just feels so real in a way that games don't
often do because it's hard to pull that. Off so,
again for such a small team and their first, effort
it's so. IMPRESSIVE i JUST i adore this.
Speaker 1: Game. Yep i've been enjoying it as.
Speaker 2: WELL i haven't played it much since The Lost BombCast,
episode but, Yeah i'm gonna get back to.
Speaker 1: It it's, one you.
Speaker 2: Know it's also it's been working really good streaming it
from the from the computer to The steam. Deck you
kind of need the full frame rate because of the
timing for some of these real time actions and stuff like.
That so, yeah it technically does work on the steam,
deck but kind of streaming it's been the much better.
Speaker 1: Option and it just, looks like you, said looks so.
Speaker 2: Good performances are so, good AND i just think the
overall design work on the interactions for the combat than
just the way the combat presents.
Speaker 1: Itself it's. Astounding really a big fan of, it.
Speaker 3: So good THAT i haven't put as much time Into
oblivion as you THINK i would have BECAUSE i in
this Great oh my. God so it's so good because
we got that Thing i've always. WANTED i love the
gameplay of The bethesan. GAMES i like the JANK i
like the world, building but there's always that sense like
why don't these look better than they? Do like why
why is it that like these games come out and
like a week later there's all these character face mods
that just look, better and it's like why didn't they
do that the first time? Around so to have everything
like looking nice in one of these games Like off.
Speaker 1: The go is, like, wow this is. Incredible, yep it's.
UH I i did spend some time with, it and it's.
Speaker 2: Uh you, know now THAT i got a little bit more,
TIME i might spend a lot more time with it
because it is a perfect sort of just you, know
veg out is maybe that's not the right vibe. Out vibe, Out,
yeah just like get in there and like where like
let it take you where it takes. You and really
it's like it's not taking, you it's letting you sort
of pilot. Yourself but it enables you to be. Autonomous
it enables you to just like explore its world at
your own pace and do things your own, way And
i'm Actually i'm super in the mood for. That And
oblivion is the game that introduced me to that kind
of gameplay in the first. Place so to have it
back and doing it again and really delivering still in
the way THAT i remember it, Doing i'm, Like, oh
this game totally still is just that, thing And i'm
so happy to have it.
Speaker 1: Back.
Speaker 3: YEAH i had that moment WHERE i guess minor spoiler
for the beginning of a twenty year old. Game but
you leave the first city where you do, stuff you
have two characters following.
Speaker 1: You you just have to go.
Speaker 3: Somewhere you can just open the menu and fast travel
and you're. There BUT i was, Like i'm gonna hop
on my horse And i'm gonna travel the actual long.
Route and all we. DID i didn't even. Gallup we
just the three of us were going. Along every time
a rat showed, Up they're, like, oh we're being, attacked
and like, overreacted but we fought her at AND i
just made that whole, journey you. KNOW i got the
torch out when it was, dark and we got our
way up to the gate of this temple you're going
to and it's just like, again it was just kind
of like a vibe Like i'm just enjoying the, scenery
enjoying right this. Horse i'm, like, man this this just
feels so. Good it's so often like these remasters and,
remakes like they have that like that that lens of.
Nostalgia but then, like, oh this doesn't like quite hit
the same way it, Did like maybe it was a
product of its time or WHERE i, was but like
this game is taking me right.
Speaker 1: Back AND i love. It, yeah it's awesome that it
can capture that that feeling while still like looking pretty
much like a modern game for the most. Part, yeah
it's it's it's.
Speaker 2: Awesome i'm starting The Thieves guild And i'm gonna do.
That i'm gonna do The Dark brotherhood quest, lines and
then After i'm gonna try to do some new. Stuff
But i'm like very nostalgic about those two quest, lines
So i'm going to do those again for.
Speaker 3: Sure have you have you messed with like a new like,
ENGINE i N i file for optimization or anything like,
That so this is the, Thing, like like the game
actually went fairly well for, me but like there were
some some some THAT ui Five, jenkins some hitching and,
stuff and a lot of people are posting On nexus
mods like CUSTOMIZED i AND i files that they claim
fixes all the, stutters makes no graphical. SACRIFICES i tried,
one And i'll be damned if it doesn't work like
it just.
Speaker 1: Does that's, man that's Still bethesta right right.
Speaker 3: Again and it's like like maybe you can speak to
it better because you know more about the industry THAN i.
Do but it's just so bizarre to me that, again,
like this team makes this game for however long it takes,
them has these. Issues and then some dude is, like
let me look at the config. File i'm gonna add
these lines like to a text document and now the game.
Works like why didn't they do?
Speaker 7: That?
Speaker 1: YEAH i.
Speaker 2: DON'T i think it's there is no like one answer
you can apply because It's bethesta And methesta is so
singular and.
Speaker 1: Specific you.
Speaker 2: Know part of it IS i think they just test
the game one, way and because they have so much to,
test and so when it comes time to, ship they're,
like don't change, anything even things make things run better
because we're trying to avoid a bunch of crashes and.
Speaker 1: Stuff like.
Speaker 2: That i'm sure it doesn't cause, that but they're a
relatively small, team and the way that they test things
seems antiquated and insufficient for the kinds of games that they're.
Speaker 1: Making but the.
Speaker 2: Reality is the community adopts these games and takes them.
Over you, know at a certain, Point bethesda gives birth
and then everyone else raises the. Game that's How bethesda
games have always. Been it's you, know it takes a
village to make A bethesda, game and the village. Does
it's not all employed By. Bethesda And i've accepted that
and been okay with that for a very long. TIME
i know there's a lot of people who just find that.
Repulsive they're, like, no this game should come out and.
Work you're asking money for, it AND i have no
argument against.
Speaker 1: That you're, Right.
Speaker 2: They're absolutely, Right and YET i can't bring myself to
care BECAUSE i am part of that community and very.
Speaker 1: Much i'll install all the, odds, Go i'm gonna go
do this thing you just.
Speaker 2: Describe i'm gonn getting THAT i AND i file and
make some, changes And i've accepted that's just part of
the journey of playing these.
Speaker 1: Games and that's. Bad no one else be that, way
but that's WHO i, am.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 3: Yeah the other Thing i've been playing real. Quick i'm
still playing a lot Of Monster Hunter. WILDS i am,
REALLY i don't. KNOW i played pretty much every. Day
there's like the first in game event is going. On
it's like The Blossom, festival so The Grand hub is
all decorated and there's some unique, armor and then they
introduced the what is, It christian the arch Tempered Rado.
Speaker 8: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah above, temper which is the most
difficult type of.
Speaker 3: Right so so this is like the hardest fight in the.
Game BUT i found an armor BILD i use that
basically makes my character. IMMORTAL i, TAKE i take very little,
damage and the damage THAT i do take almost immediately.
Regenerates SO i think one TIME i had to use
a potion WHILE i was fighting this, thing and that's.
It SO i don't like my damage output isn't great
because of, it but LIKE i don't.
Speaker 1: Die so that's.
Speaker 3: Good so, hey it's it's really, fun, Man Like i've
bust is one of those. Games i've wanted to like
it for so. Long going back to THE psp GAMES
i tried to get into try on The. WEIU i
had four altman on the three ds the. World the
issue there WAS i didn't have anyone else playing, it
and the online was a little. Confusing mike AND i
played a little bit more Of rise on The. Switch
that's WHEN i first started kind of rocking it for
the first. Time but this is just everything's clicking about this.
Speaker 1: ONE i love. IT i love. It that's.
Speaker 2: Fantastic sounds all, right LET'S i think we got a
couple more super. Chats let's let's hit those and let's get.

that's right, Rule he's so much.
Speaker 2: Fun christian's been looking forward to it for for, forever

can't perry the the like, visually try to purry the.
Sound i've seen a lot of people had in trouble with.
That try to parry the sound even if you. Can't,
yeah use Use dutch. Doutch it recovers faster than the,
paries so you can kind of kind of miss the
dodge and do it. Again just mash it and you
might get The. Dutch and even after, that check your.
Pictos your pictos are kind of op. There they're pictos that. System,
yeah they're pictures that will give, You, yeah they will
give YOU ap points for getting. Hit and the pictus
itself has a lot of health and a lot of,
defense so like you can build your characters to survive
a couple of. Hits some pictos even give you shield
and that kind of. Stuff we'll like you can choose
tank the hit if you get if you get, Hit
so like having the game is way more deep than
shes pairing. Hits he has more and more systems that
you've definitely. Used you should.
Speaker 1: Use it's, yeah it's super deep, like.

now people can we can retreat here and kind of
keep doing the.
Speaker 1: Thing it feels very special to, me very, important and you, know.

like when things are on, fire you kind of like
this calm washes over, you And i'm, like, NO i

would like to. Panic and so When i'm dealing with
things today And i'm like turning around like explaining things
to my, family it was very much LIKE i could
point to you all and be, like, listen at the very,
Least i'm going to figure out some of this because
there's a lot of people who are going to want
to hang out with me and kind of keep making
stuff or be a part of me making stuff on the.
Internet and it was very nice to like have a
rationale for not panicking because you all were, there and
so to do a show like this.
Speaker 1: And to have this kind of support it it means a.
Speaker 2: Lot AND i know it's, like you, know it's not
gonna be like this every week going, forward and it
doesn't need to be like we.
