Speaker 1: Might have to make some cuts.
Speaker 2: Hello, and welcome to side Quest. This is our video
Speaker 2: game show here at geek First, and we got the
Speaker 2: full crew today. I'm your host, del Musa with me,
Speaker 2: I am with me. I guess I am with me,
Speaker 2: but I also with me. Here is My time is over?
Speaker 2: Travis Snell? How are you doing tonight? My friend?
Speaker 3: My time is over? Oh, Kirkland's doing Shenanigans. Change that
Speaker 3: on me.
Speaker 4: It was my time is now but doing some fraudulent
Speaker 4: But you know that's okay. I'm doing well up until
Speaker 4: that moment. I'm doing well.
Speaker 3: But that's okay.
Speaker 4: Right to cream Kirkland and this uh this uh this draft?
Speaker 3: Give him a pounding, give.
Speaker 2: Him a pounding. Well, here we go again, Kirtlas. Are
Speaker 2: you ready ready for that pounding?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I am ready for any pounding. I'm
Speaker 1: happy to be here another year, drafting twenty twenty six,
Speaker 1: healthy start of the year. No, yeah, I don't really
Speaker 1: have anything else say than that my time is over. Travis. Noo,
Speaker 1: there you go.
Speaker 2: You're wanting to introduce Travis again.
Speaker 1: I guess I'll just read it off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pulling a wrong berg Ta is for Taylor. Also
Speaker 2: two is for twenty twenty six. Taylor, how's it going tonight,
Speaker 2: my friend?
Speaker 5: That was good, happy to be here, happy to you know,
Speaker 5: have the homework done for this episode.
Speaker 2: So I was like it, yeah, yeah, we're doing our
Speaker 2: yearly video game draft as we always do. I'll explain
Speaker 2: the rules of it. I guess in a bit, maybe
Speaker 2: I'll just quickly wrap up last year's draft. So it
Speaker 2: was really hot and heavy coming into the end of
Speaker 2: the year where uh, you know, Kirkland, you know, fell
Speaker 2: behind because of a delayed game. Unfortunately, mean to the
Speaker 2: hollower got kicked to still who knows. We don't actually
Speaker 2: have a date for that yet technically. But it was
Speaker 2: looking like me and Taylor were pulling ahead. Travis was
Speaker 2: looking like he was eyeballing like third place there. But
Speaker 2: then me and Taylor both had one more game to
Speaker 2: come out, Marvel Cosmic Invasion for me, Metro playing four
Speaker 2: for Taylor. Uh, and we were I think at the
Speaker 2: exact same point or like one point difference or something.
Speaker 2: So it was really coming down to the wire on
Speaker 2: like those two final games.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 2: And then you know that went the way it did.
Speaker 2: But then I went and retabulated everything and then there's
Speaker 2: a little bit of variance. Now, I think all four
Speaker 2: of us have had numbers that have changed, which is weird.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's like months later, like Doom randomly has like
Speaker 2: changed two points or something like that. So what's up.
Speaker 3: I feel like you understold me.
Speaker 4: I was at a point where if you guys got
Speaker 4: like a seventy six both you, I could have won it.
Speaker 4: So you like always said on that third there could
Speaker 4: have been a miracle. There could have been something that happened.
Speaker 2: To my account, I have over twenty points higher than you,
Speaker 2: So I guess it. Yeah, I guess there was. Marvel
Speaker 2: Cosmic was extremely tanked.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there was a chance.
Speaker 4: I don't don't just say I settled that through there
Speaker 4: were I was looking for the you know it was
Speaker 4: locked that or it wasn't locked that you guys were
Speaker 4: winning it. There's always a chance for a surprise. We've
Speaker 4: seen games before, so put a valiant fight, you know.
Speaker 2: I will say when I was retablating things, Travis, because
Speaker 2: I had originally you had called to do Black Ops
Speaker 2: seven on your list, which had a seventy, but I
Speaker 2: checked it again today was at sixty five, So it's
Speaker 2: dropped five points since it came out, which is weird bad.
Speaker 3: Caller, So it sounds like, yeah, you.
Speaker 2: Would think most of those reviews like come out day
Speaker 2: and date like maybe for smaller games it takes longer,
Speaker 2: but anyway, I'll quickly rifle this off because we have
Speaker 2: a lot of stuff to do tonight. But yeah, fourth place. Unfortunately, Kirkland,
Speaker 2: because of me to the Hollower, delayed your other games.
Speaker 2: You had Doomed Dark Ages with eighty three, Split Fiction
Speaker 2: ninety one, Adam Falls seventy four, Mafia seventy three, MGS
Speaker 2: Delta eighty five, Pokemon Legend seventy eight, Baby Step seventy seven.
Speaker 2: So I guess to remind people who haven't listened to
Speaker 2: this before we all pick games. We usually start with
Speaker 2: five and then somewhere in the middle of the year
Speaker 2: we add more games onto our list. Whatever that game
Speaker 2: gets on Metacritic is added to your overall total points,
Speaker 2: so that gives your overall totals. So Kirkland had a
Speaker 2: five hundred and sixty one. So that was fourth place
Speaker 2: for Kirkland, who is currently the CHAMPI he's won two years.
Speaker 2: I think he won the first two years. Then it
Speaker 2: was Travis that won the year previously to that. Oh
Speaker 2: hat trick, yeah, al hat tricks.
Speaker 4: Over, time's over, Yeah, I talking about hat trick. I
Speaker 4: forgot when you said Mafia three. Forgot that game even existed,
Speaker 4: and even like another game I thought today was METROI Prime.
Speaker 4: I've heard nobody Dell did you pick up Metrod Prime
Speaker 4: or whatever the new one is.
Speaker 2: I did not.
Speaker 4: I don't think I know a single person that has
Speaker 4: that game.
Speaker 2: Play it, but like I'm not spending one hundred and
Speaker 2: ten dollars on it.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I just feels that it came and went
Speaker 4: for like all like years away from Metroid and nothing
Speaker 4: like a far in the wind, you know, a fart.
Speaker 5: In the win.
Speaker 2: I couldn't have said it better myself in third place, though, Travis.
Speaker 2: So you had two games delayed GT six and Judas,
Speaker 2: which you got repicks on, but you had avowed at
Speaker 2: eighty seousand, screen Shadows at eighty one, WWE two K
Speaker 2: twenty five, eighty Hollow Night, Silk Song ninety, Kirby Air
Speaker 2: Riders seventy nine, Borderlands for eighty one, like a Voyagers
Speaker 2: seventy nine, and Black Ops that the you know, carrying
Speaker 2: it all down there with the sixty five.
Speaker 3: Yeah, black ops.
Speaker 4: I was surprised by because I think anytime you pick
Speaker 4: call Duty game there is a gamble, because there is
Speaker 4: other games of the franchise we've seen that have low ones.
Speaker 4: The one that let me down the most, I think
Speaker 4: for me was the Kirby aer Riders. I expected a
Speaker 4: better score than that. That's the one I'm more Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's the one I'm more mad about when I look
Speaker 4: at that list you read off to me. So yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm pretty happy with that. I lost two of the
Speaker 4: bigger ones, So I'm happy with that score considering. But yeah,
Speaker 4: Zach ry pick it up next time, you know.
Speaker 2: I mean the next one might be smashed, So hopefully
Speaker 2: does pick it up.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So uh and then to you know, drum roll here
Speaker 2: the reveal is that Taylor, you did end in second place.
Speaker 2: It ended up being a four point difference between you
Speaker 2: and I, so very very close. You had death Randing
Speaker 2: two with eighty nine, which was a really really great
Speaker 2: score like a Dragon Pirate Kuz on Hawaii seventy nine
Speaker 2: and oh one one seven eighty four Metro Prime for
Speaker 2: seventy eight Onstop eighty Lego Party eighty one. That field
Speaker 2: six eighty three in Jurassic World Evolution three eighty one,
Speaker 2: so really like solid overall, really just clean average, and
Speaker 2: then yeah, death Stranding was a nice almost ninety for.
Speaker 4: You, Yeah, Matra again good seventy yeah, crazy yeah.
Speaker 2: Seventy nine yeah or seventy eight yeah, and then yeah
Speaker 2: for me. So I ended with six point fifty nine,
Speaker 2: had Monster Hunter Wilds eighty eight, Elden Ring Night rain
Speaker 2: at seventy nine, Ghosts of Yo Taie eighty six, Seventh
Speaker 2: Midnight seventy seven, m'lb The Show twenty five, eighty three,
Speaker 2: Outer World's two eighty three, Marvel Cosmic Invasion when my
Speaker 2: last one was eighty one, and Ninja goid In four
Speaker 2: at eighty two. So uh yeah, I had. I think
Speaker 2: Monster Hund Wild and Ghost Yoai were nice good ones,
Speaker 2: high eighties for me. I think we're the two big
Speaker 2: dogs in the fight. So we talked, we talked about
Speaker 2: this mid year. I'm curious where you guys are out
Speaker 2: with this, where we're talking about like adding steaks to
Speaker 2: these drafts. Now, obviously I won, so I want the
Speaker 2: stakes to count, but are we counting that for next
Speaker 2: year or do you guys want this to somehow be
Speaker 2: retroactive and like this year, I do get to pick
Speaker 2: a game that you guys have to play, or I
Speaker 2: would even be okay going back game even you for
Speaker 2: the years you won a pass because there's only that
Speaker 2: would only had three things and you know there's no
Speaker 2: timeline when you got to play these things. But I
Speaker 2: what do you guys think? What do you guys want
Speaker 2: to do?
Speaker 3: I'm a this year vote?
Speaker 1: I'm a this year guy? Yeah? How does it?
Speaker 2: Good?
Speaker 5: Time starting? It's starting twenty.
Speaker 3: This is the year. It starts twenty seventy six.
Speaker 5: The stave vote for that?
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, sounds good.
Speaker 4: Uh, Tato's getting serious this year.
Speaker 2: I did think of a game, but I'll you know,
Speaker 2: I won't even tell you what it is. I'll have
Speaker 2: to win again this year and hear what it is.
Speaker 2: I had a suggestion for you guys, And I'm curious
Speaker 2: what you think about this because I think you know
Speaker 2: issue with the draft and the way we do this
Speaker 2: is that if you have a even one, if you
Speaker 2: have one game delayed and the other three people have
Speaker 2: all their games come out, you just automatically lose, like
Speaker 2: if there is a delay one delay on your board,
Speaker 2: you're just done for unless everyone else's games get like forty.
Speaker 2: But like auto Metacritic, you know, people, you know, rarely
Speaker 2: are games getting like a you know, less than forty
Speaker 2: or something like that. My thought was, if a game
Speaker 2: gets delayed, how would you guys feel about just putting
Speaker 2: fifty points on it? So it's a really bad score,
Speaker 2: but it's at least something. It puts you still in
Speaker 2: the race. And then if the off chance that there's
Speaker 2: a game that gets even less than fifty, then that
Speaker 2: would become the minimum. So for anything it gets delayed.
Speaker 2: Let's say, so, you know, Kirkland drafts South Park snow
Speaker 2: Day two and it gets forty three on Metacritic, and
Speaker 2: that's the lowest rated thing of the year, and we
Speaker 2: make that like the lowest thing, and all the games
Speaker 2: that got delayed just get like a forty three slap home.
Speaker 2: So you're not getting zero, you're not out of the fight,
Speaker 2: but you're getting like a really bad score, Like it's
Speaker 2: not what you want. How do you guys feel about that?
Speaker 4: The only thing before answer would this be post the
Speaker 4: second like the midway point.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So if once we get to the midyear thing
Speaker 2: where we add games if there's anything that has officially
Speaker 2: been delayed out of the year, we would still repick
Speaker 2: those ones, Okay, But yeah, then if there's anything that
Speaker 2: is still unknown, like GT six, let's say it's not
Speaker 2: delayed yet, but it gets delayed in like September or something,
Speaker 2: you kind of get screwed there, but you'd at least
Speaker 2: get your you'd get fifty points for that one having
Speaker 2: it on your list.
Speaker 1: Thoughts, So this is sorry, is this just for the
Speaker 1: one like one game being delayed or this This could
Speaker 1: be like half my list, I'm just getting fifties on this.
Speaker 2: Or I mean if you're half if half your list
Speaker 2: you're getting fifties on, you're still gonna lose anyway. So
Speaker 2: that's why I feel like it's not like a huge advantage,
Speaker 2: like you still want to pick games that are good
Speaker 2: in games that come out because you're probably gonna get
Speaker 2: more than fifty. But it would be I would think
Speaker 2: it would be for every game. Hopefully you don't have
Speaker 2: too many games delayed. I think I've had two delayed
Speaker 2: in the past, maybe even one year that was like
Speaker 2: the worst that we saw.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, considering I've had a game go worse
Speaker 1: than fifty. I am okay with that. Uh, what do
Speaker 1: you guys think?
Speaker 5: Sure?
Speaker 2: I I I'll yeah, I guess. The only example I
Speaker 2: can give you is like last year, Kirkling, Let's say
Speaker 2: Mina the Let's say we had this last year, meaning
Speaker 2: the hollows on your list, it got delayed. Let's say
Speaker 2: you threw fifty extra points on your thing. You would
Speaker 2: be at six hundred and eleven. I think, so you'd
Speaker 2: still be twenty points below Travis, So it's not like
Speaker 2: you're still in the fight there, Like obviously that really
Speaker 2: tanks your score overall, we.
Speaker 1: Get seventy let's make it seventy points that.
Speaker 2: I mean. My other thought was like whatever game scores
Speaker 2: the absolute lowest on all of our lists, that becomes
Speaker 2: like that minimum threshold. But I don't know, I kind
Speaker 2: of like, I feel like fifties maybe a bit cleaner,
Speaker 2: and I do like it'll make much of a difference,
Speaker 2: but it's worth the truck.
Speaker 1: I like the strategy of like taking that risk that
Speaker 1: your game might get delayed, Like I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: like just to free get out of jail free card.
Speaker 1: So I yeah, I think I do.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think there is still like a rule
Speaker 2: ish that, like you have to have a reasona believe
Speaker 2: that the game's coming out with.
Speaker 1: This this year, you know, yeah elder score.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like that's that's that's that's illegal and that's an
Speaker 2: illegal pick.
Speaker 1: Example.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I I guess I alluded to it. But
Speaker 2: the reward, we've decided on a reward. Whoever wins this
Speaker 2: draft this year, we'll get it to pick a game
Speaker 2: that the other people have to play, and we'll probably
Speaker 2: try a base episode around talking about that game when
Speaker 2: everyone's played it. Something like that. Other just rule things
Speaker 2: before we get into the pick the order pick selection.
Speaker 2: You can't pick anything that's currently in early access. You
Speaker 2: can't pick any remasters. You can't pick any ports. Of course,
Speaker 2: remakes are a weird things. Yeah, there's reimagines for dragon quests.
Speaker 2: It's a tricky situation. You know, Kirkland did have Metal
Speaker 2: Gear Solid last year. You could argue that's like too close.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I I still it's really hard for
Speaker 2: me to decide what's like the right rule here. I
Speaker 2: think if it has remaster in the title though it's
Speaker 2: it's it's no, or if it's like definitive edition or
Speaker 2: enhanced edition or Director's cut, Like, I don't think any
Speaker 2: of those should count, but it is tricky, so you
Speaker 2: can make a case for it if you want to
Speaker 2: pick one of these, like ambiguous ones, I think is
Speaker 2: a good way to go about it. Other than that, Yeah,
Speaker 2: we all just we're just gonna start picking games here.
Speaker 2: Can someone get the wheel of the order wheel up
Speaker 2: for me? I should have done that, And if you
Speaker 2: guys want to keep it's the same dog from last year.
Speaker 2: So if you guys you want to open that up,
Speaker 2: I'll type the names in as we're as we're going
Speaker 2: through here, and yeah, like the you know, Metacritic just
Speaker 2: is like an overall aggregated So course you don't have
Speaker 2: to pick a console. We had that last year already,
Speaker 2: but just a reminder on that. And yeah, I guys, so,
Speaker 2: who's someone's wheeling up here?
Speaker 1: Yeah, wheels, wheels coming pull up the wheel.
Speaker 2: This is going to be our order of who's drafting.
Speaker 2: We do a snake draft style, so spin that bad
Speaker 2: for that?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I need those claps.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, that's me mister. So I'm picking first. Second
Speaker 2: pick goes to.
Speaker 1: I like it the run of the plas commanthing. It
Speaker 1: random on the new computer too, a lot less leggy.
Speaker 1: That's nice to see.
Speaker 2: That's good. Hell, the third pick looks like it's going.
Speaker 2: That leaves Travis for last. Now, Kirklin, I wanted to
Speaker 2: keep this wheel open. You can spin it if you want.
Speaker 2: Keep this wheel open for a second. So let me
Speaker 2: start with a little little quick behind the scenes. This
Speaker 2: is how a lot of things go at geek. First
Speaker 2: whenever there you go, Travis, you can yeah, celebrate there.
Speaker 3: I don't have the wheel. This is all a Kirkland.
Speaker 3: You know I'm not doing any of them.
Speaker 2: No, you're celebrating because you picked. I saw it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: So today in the chat, I went in our discord
Speaker 2: and say, hey, do you guys want to do five picks?
Speaker 2: Or do you want to do six picks? And this
Speaker 2: is a frequent thing oftentimes if you ask, you know,
Speaker 2: I'm guilty of this too. If you go in our
Speaker 2: group chat, if you look through all of their history,
Speaker 2: if anyone asks a yes or no or a binary question,
Speaker 2: half the time you'll get a reaction gift that doesn't
Speaker 2: answer the question at all. You'll get some unrelated answer,
Speaker 2: You'll get a meme that's later followed up with a
Speaker 2: just kidding answering the question. So when I asked, you
Speaker 2: guys want to pick five or six games, Kirkland responded
Speaker 2: with his new favorite meme of six seven. Taylor responded
Speaker 2: with his favorite reaction gift of the count, saying eight,
Speaker 2: and then Travis just said like he said ten, but
Speaker 2: he also just said the more the merrier. So you
Speaker 2: know what, Kirkland put on this wheel, five, six, and seven,
Speaker 2: and we're gonna determine how many games we're picking right now.
Speaker 2: We're throwing it to the wheel eight though eight actually
Speaker 2: ye eight as well? Put it.
Speaker 5: Yeah there, let's get is that a six or nine
Speaker 5: looks like a nine?
Speaker 3: It's a nine?
Speaker 2: Sorry, yeah, not ten, but nine. Take take five off there,
Speaker 2: just do six, seven, eight. So we're gonna roll the wheel.
Speaker 2: This is how many games we're gonna pick today. It's
Speaker 2: either six seven Kirklin's favorite, or eight. So Taylor.
Speaker 4: A leg game.
Speaker 2: So Taylor, it's Taylor as you as you requested.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's perfect, I'll take it.
Speaker 2: So you have an advantage in the draft because you
Speaker 2: were prepared for.
Speaker 5: This, right, I mean, as I said before I got
Speaker 5: I got picks, I gotta make a few cuts, but
Speaker 5: I got picks.
Speaker 2: You have to cut with eight you might have picked,
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to pick.
Speaker 3: Remember, we all get picks too, so.
Speaker 5: I don't know if you guys have well, I don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't know if you guys got my picks.
Speaker 2: That's a huge listener. It's fair, Okay, I will kick
Speaker 2: it off. I'm first pick here. I have Yeah, I
Speaker 2: have a few tiers, and I have like maybe six
Speaker 2: or seven or eight games in my top tier. But
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the big dog here. We're gonna
Speaker 2: learn about this game and just a couple of weeks.
Speaker 2: I think it will come out this year, and these
Speaker 2: games historically review really well. I'm gonna grab four as
Speaker 2: a Horizon six nice is set in Japan this year,
Speaker 2: so I think that could be extremely spicy.
Speaker 4: One after Tayo's just like, I don't think I of
Speaker 4: you have what I have. Boys take this this first
Speaker 4: time drafting. I feel like we look at the field,
Speaker 4: you know, so no pun intended.
Speaker 2: The teas for taylor Field all right over to Krookland.
Speaker 1: I don't like second pick. This is actually really stressful
Speaker 1: A lot of long time too until I pick next,
Speaker 1: which is scary thought. Oh man, oh man, I think
Speaker 1: I think I'm just gonna take the big boy. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take GTA. I know it could be a pretty
Speaker 1: middle of the tier, like maybe even I dare I
Speaker 1: say yellowish tinge to that green on there, but I
Speaker 1: think it'll at least be that. And I'm hoping just
Speaker 1: the hype and buzz and just people just glazing on
Speaker 1: Rockstar on their games just just make this this number
Speaker 1: a lot higher than what it could because I definitely
Speaker 1: could see this being disappointing of a pick, but it's
Speaker 1: just such a big boy that uh yeah. And I
Speaker 1: do believe it actually is coming out this year, you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: despite it multiple I think it is.
Speaker 2: Hitting this year as well for sure, and I think
Speaker 2: it will review really well. I think it's a great pick.
Speaker 2: It's a great pick.
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna get Forza. I thought GT
Speaker 1: was gonna go first, but fort is a you know,
Speaker 1: maybe I was I was overvaluing the fact that you
Speaker 1: would just see right now.
Speaker 2: After your Japan trip, you're hyped on the Japan set
Speaker 2: over to Taylor.
Speaker 5: Hmmm, okay, I'm gonna go Wolverine. I was looking around
Speaker 5: then I saw The last standoff sent on the Wolverine
Speaker 5: game was X Men Origins, and that has seventy five
Speaker 5: a Metacritic. That was from two thousand and nine, so,
Speaker 5: you know what, it's been a long time. I think
Speaker 5: there's a good chance this will be at least the
Speaker 5: seventy five plus.
Speaker 2: Supposed to the correlation that's like September bro the correlation
Speaker 2: to this team that made the movie tie in game
Speaker 2: given us a seventy five.
Speaker 3: That's why it's gonna be good.
Speaker 2: What did Spider Man two get? Like probably eighty.
Speaker 4: As at least like eighty I bet even like eighty
Speaker 4: five or something maybe because we take it are pretty safe.
Speaker 3: So Spider Man.
Speaker 1: South Park's not it, that's for sure.
Speaker 4: God ninety oh yeah, that's yeah, Slinging.
Speaker 2: I think it was only right just because like if
Speaker 2: it doesn't come out this year, which is possible, but
Speaker 2: it wasn't quite a first round pick for me. But
Speaker 2: it's still a solid pick overall.
Speaker 4: You know, other than August and then all the retrospective
Speaker 4: months that my children are born and then the month
Speaker 4: that Emily is born, I do a fair month, and
Speaker 4: my fair month is February. I love February because it's
Speaker 4: give me my first because I guess Snake draft. So
Speaker 4: I'm going not just one, but two games in the
Speaker 4: big old February film the Vibe cos on it. Give
Speaker 4: me that Leon Kennedy, that Resident Evil wreck Ram. The
Speaker 4: hype is gonna bring me there, and then I'm also
Speaker 4: gonna slap it down for Neo three as well. Those
Speaker 4: last two games have reviewed pretty well. It's coming out
Speaker 4: February six, So I'm going out for some big head
Speaker 4: honchos that are coming out early, because even if they
Speaker 4: get delayed, which I don't think res is. Even if
Speaker 4: Neil has delayed, I feel like I got some I
Speaker 4: got some time there.
Speaker 3: Wolverine.
Speaker 4: There's no date, GTA, it's getting delayed again, you guys.
Speaker 4: Do you guys not see that report last week from
Speaker 4: Jation Shreier. All the employees are like, this game's not
Speaker 4: gonna be good to go for Fall.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you that game's.
Speaker 4: Not coming out anymore.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I h that's some ester scooping.
Speaker 4: So I'm happy to take Neo and Resident Evil.
Speaker 2: Hey, great picks, both in my top tier.
Speaker 5: I'll take you, Taylor, you know what, I definitely wanted
Speaker 5: to pick those A navel but I for some reason
Speaker 5: lost it on my list and I totally forgot about it.
Speaker 5: So fuck but that's okay because I am going this already.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have it. I said a row. Someone gets
Speaker 3: picked and like I lost the.
Speaker 2: List, it's dropping.
Speaker 5: I have one that's I feel like it's a safe play,
Speaker 5: but well no, I'll do it because I feel like
Speaker 5: there's a chance it could be good'mnna do Yoshi in
Speaker 5: the Mysterious book. I don't have any personal excitement for
Speaker 5: this game at all, but hey, maybe it might have
Speaker 5: at least a high seventy and I'll take that too.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be orange orange bar right there, Orange yellow
Speaker 1: medic prediction, new record, hold over.
Speaker 3: Snow Day or whatever.
Speaker 2: I've got three left in my top tier, so I'm
Speaker 2: curious if Krookland's gonna grab one of these before I
Speaker 2: can nap up the other two. With the snake drafting powers.
Speaker 1: We have been in sync here on Nicks. I guess
Speaker 1: it's me now.
Speaker 3: That's what Dylan was alluding to, a little hGe for
Speaker 3: you and set you.
Speaker 1: Up there, man. I think I'm gonna take a gamble here. No, no,
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm Noah, I'm gonna go I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: double seven here. I'm gonna go double seven here. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna pin some hype pick. No, I'm not going high guard. No,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like hit Man's been uh
Speaker 1: reviewed really well, and this could be like a very
Speaker 1: disappointing drop. And I'm also getting hype for the game,
Speaker 1: which just I'm trying to will that into existence that
Speaker 1: it is going to be just a real standout title
Speaker 1: and uh yeah, hopefully it really delivers. I think it'll
Speaker 1: be in that eighty range minimum. I don't really see
Speaker 1: it being in the seventies. I've been wrong before, clearly,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know. Let's go double seven. Lenny Kravitz.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is a great pick. Great pick. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that was that was in my top tier. So I
Speaker 2: know people some people seem to have a little less
Speaker 2: faith in that one from what I've seen some chatter online.
Speaker 2: But I you know, I'm obviously in IOI super fans,
Speaker 2: so that makes sense. Good pick. I'm gonna grab two here.
Speaker 2: First up is I'm gonna grab a control resonant from
Speaker 2: Remedy Games. You know, the older games review really well
Speaker 2: Resonant has a bit of a question mark on it,
Speaker 2: like is this a sequel? Is it like a smaller game?
Speaker 2: I don't really know yet, and so that's where there's
Speaker 2: a bit of who knows with this one. But it
Speaker 2: is still remedy in a new control game, So I
Speaker 2: feel like it's gonna be hot off the presses. And
Speaker 2: then I'm also gonna grab a game that's coming out
Speaker 2: very soon, I think in March Sony first party game.
Speaker 2: Their last game, Reternal was a big hitter, so I'm
Speaker 2: gonna grab Sorrows.
Speaker 3: I would have that one next. That's a good one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Returnal then a six on Metacritics, so yeah, good,
Speaker 4: good good chance there, So.
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely good chance.
Speaker 1: Okay, back to me here, look at my list. I
Speaker 1: got some hearts on here for sure. Ah, I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna touch that one. That one's too much wildcard. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go with a heart pick here, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with I'm gonna go with the big fuck whould I go?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I know, I'm gonna go with my heart here. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take to the skies. I'm going ace Combat eighth
Speaker 1: Wings of Thieve. This game is gonna be the best
Speaker 1: in the series so far. I truly believe it's last one.
Speaker 1: Not bad, not bad in the in the reviews. I
Speaker 1: feel like this is a nice, solid staple again, another
Speaker 1: one that I'm just willing that manifesting that's gonna be
Speaker 1: a fantastic game because I do want to be their
Speaker 1: day one and I want to enjoy myself. And from
Speaker 1: everything I've seen so far, it seems like it's it's
Speaker 1: gonna be the one I want.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I uh for that one is Yeah, they've
Speaker 2: slapped the twenty twenty six on it, right.
Speaker 1: Yes, twenty twenty six. It's no solid date here, so
Speaker 1: it is a bit of a risk. But yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: hoping I.
Speaker 2: Kind of forgot about that one so that you snuck
Speaker 2: that one from under my my little nose here.
Speaker 1: I should have left it for later.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, Taylor, all right, hmm, I'm gonna, I'm gonna,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna sneak in. I got two here, I got
Speaker 5: to here. What do I want to know? I got
Speaker 5: another safe one, but I don't know how safe that
Speaker 5: really is. So I'm gonna go Phantom Blade Fantom Blade zero.
Speaker 2: Okay, You're really you? You love Fall right now. That's
Speaker 2: what I'm learning about you.
Speaker 5: I just want to just slam dunk all these points
Speaker 5: in one month.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had them my under the radar snipes category.
Speaker 2: I didn't know if that was top of mind for anyone,
Speaker 2: So nice drops snipes category. Although maybe Blade comes out
Speaker 2: this year, that would be cool. I would love that,
Speaker 2: thank game.
Speaker 1: There's only ever gonna be one Blade.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's only gonna be one bla. Well, as I mentioned,
Speaker 4: I love February, right, great month, just talking up a
Speaker 4: little bit well on February and some of theos. A
Speaker 4: third game in there, And if a Kirkland can have
Speaker 4: a mental gear on his less list and that's a remake,
Speaker 4: then I think. You know it's even better than a
Speaker 4: remake is a reimagining. And I'm gonna take Dragon Quest
Speaker 4: seven reimagined. You look it up. They say it's a
Speaker 4: remake technically, but I don't take that. And then I'm
Speaker 4: gonna jump out of the February band waging. Now I
Speaker 4: think I've I've farmed that enough and I'm gonna go
Speaker 4: Lego Batman. I feel pretty good. Lego Frontiers Obviusly last
Speaker 4: year or whatever I got wasn't as good. But I
Speaker 4: think this one I'm feeling good in like a high
Speaker 4: eighty five being the minimum for Lego Batman. I think
Speaker 4: they're gonna put a lot of love in this. Every
Speaker 4: day more news comes out and it feels like it's
Speaker 4: always positive news, like nothing nake, nothing to worry.
Speaker 3: I think this is going to review.
Speaker 4: Really well, do really well, and I'm pretty safe with that.
Speaker 4: I know it's May right now. I guess there's always
Speaker 4: something that could happen, So I'm not like, I don't
Speaker 4: think it's one hundred percent log but I feel pretty good.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 4: I don't think the Lego games you should do the
Speaker 4: big delays, but you never know. But I think if
Speaker 4: it comes when it has come out, it's gonna get
Speaker 4: me some nice screen. It's gonna be uh, it's just
Speaker 4: gonna be my fear color popping off. So yeah, Lego
Speaker 4: and Dragon.
Speaker 2: Really solid picks, both in my upper echelon field.
Speaker 5: Okay, let's do Pregmata first contact. Oh you didn't see.
Speaker 2: It's a subtitle.
Speaker 5: That's what says. I get rid of that subtitle unless
Speaker 5: just do pragmatic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great pick. That's great. It's had a
Speaker 2: demo o. People really liking it so solid picks, old pick.
Speaker 4: I don't see the subtitle anywhere too, so you might
Speaker 4: have just added that.
Speaker 5: I don't know where I pulled that from.
Speaker 2: Then what was the subtitle again?
Speaker 3: Sorry?
Speaker 5: First Contact?
Speaker 2: First Contact? Okay, yeah, I don't know about that.
Speaker 4: That's a sequel.
Speaker 1: That's good, Okay, if that counts correct, It's back to
Speaker 1: me here, he's.
Speaker 4: Going to mass and you told me the subtitle. You
Speaker 4: just embarrassing me in front of everyone on the draft, laughing.
Speaker 1: Every right now, I don't know lego bat that's gone.
Speaker 1: You took that one. Oh yeah, I'm gonna go. Fuck,
Speaker 1: I'm really struggling here. I wish there was just obvious
Speaker 1: ones to take for me. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go ontos here another heart pick of mine, one that
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be rooting. It succeeds really well, but
Speaker 1: first one reviewed really well, so I'm hoping this one's
Speaker 1: even better. Yeah. I don't remember if there's a date
Speaker 1: for that one, but uh, I hope there is.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't think it does, but I think it's probably
Speaker 2: coming out this year. I feel pretty good about that.
Speaker 2: Nice pick. Nice pick. Well Taylor's way. I can't believe
Speaker 2: you pick Yoshi. That was crazy.
Speaker 4: I guess he has high hopes for it. You never know, right,
Speaker 4: maybe maybe we're saying that, but we could he could
Speaker 4: be laughing next year, right, like percent.
Speaker 3: Game of all time?
Speaker 2: Yeah, the switch to console seller Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's the new Animal Crossing. Everyone's talking about it,
Speaker 4: writing about it.
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's not even gonna outperform fucking High Guard
Speaker 1: whatever that game was.
Speaker 3: I got.
Speaker 4: Oh, he should pick up. We should talk him into
Speaker 4: picking High Guard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, first content, he doesn't know what that game is. Yeah,
Speaker 2: speaking of the switch too, I am gonna grab a
Speaker 2: switch to game here. I'm gonna grab a it doesn't
Speaker 2: matter what order, because I get two picks here. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna grab a heart pick for me as well. Kirkland,
Speaker 2: following your footsteps, Fire Emblem Fortunes.
Speaker 3: We next. That's a good one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no date, it's a risky but say that again.
Speaker 4: No date yet, but risky, that's only risk to right,
Speaker 4: But it should come out, right.
Speaker 2: I think it. Yeah, I think it'll be out this year.
Speaker 2: And because they kind of the two alternating Fire and
Speaker 2: Bloom teams and this team's last one is twenty nineteen,
Speaker 2: I think, so it's been it's been cooking for a
Speaker 2: while and it is, yeah, from that team that had
Speaker 2: like kind of the better of the two Switch era games.
Speaker 2: So I'm feeling decent about this one. We haven't seen
Speaker 2: much of it yet, so it's a bit of a
Speaker 2: wild card, but I think it'll definitely be coming out here.

Speaker 2: all the, time and this one could be a weird.

Speaker 2: Bloods it's the switch to from software exclusive, GAME i, think,
Speaker 2: yeah LIKE i, said has that kind of it could

Speaker 2: high ceiling because of the fact that it is from
Speaker 2: software as. Well and, yeah So i'm gonna grab Dust blood.
Speaker 1: Here, nice, nice good pick you can always count on from,
Speaker 1: SOFTWARE i, think, yeah, yeah some good.

Speaker 2: like high seventies or, whatever like seventy. Eight like it's,
Speaker 2: fine you, know.

Speaker 1: gonna be getting some. Points, nonetheless AND i think the first,
Speaker 1: one you, know underperformed for WHAT i thought it would have.
Speaker 1: BEEN i think it's like in that seventy six. Range
Speaker 1: but you know, what those are valuable. Points and in
Speaker 1: the long race that is this uh this draft that
Speaker 1: we do. Here SO i think this one will do
Speaker 1: a little bit more than. That, though there's something in
Speaker 1: the air that that's got me. Sniffing so, yeah there you.
Speaker 5: Go all, Right i'm going to be bold And i'm

Speaker 4: nerds like, it all the people to review these games
Speaker 4: like it go With Pokemon. Poketopia you, KNOW i just
Speaker 4: feel like that's at least a seventy green if it's lower.
Speaker 4: Tier BUT i, THINK i think that audience will like.
Speaker 5: It it's gonna be your Black ops seven pick.
Speaker 4: All it could.
Speaker 2: Be, Yeah pokemon hater is grabbing A pokemon.
Speaker 4: Game you gotta. Play you gotta play for the love
Speaker 4: of the. Game you, know you gotta sometimes become friends

Speaker 5: Game really in this, space that's.
Speaker 4: TRUE I i've if the jury does not allow me
Speaker 4: to pick, this that's. FINE i have more coming, up
Speaker 4: BUT i feel LIKE i should be allowed to pick.
Speaker 4: It considering two weeks ago they announced they're doing a
Speaker 4: direct on. That IF i want to Throw fable on this,
Speaker 4: list would that be a ya or AN a.
Speaker 2: Because of the release date of, them, well.
Speaker 4: There's no date for, it but they're doing a direct
Speaker 4: in two. Weeks and that's when it's not even, like,
Speaker 4: oh we're Tunnel. Field it's, like there's the three games we're.
Speaker 4: Highlighting to, me that feels, It, Okay i'm gonna throw
Speaker 4: f on. There i'm very Un this is to me
Speaker 4: more of a, yeah big risk Because i'm something in
Speaker 4: the camp THAT i think is going to, Disappoint but
Speaker 4: if it's the other, SIDE i think it's also big,
Speaker 4: risk big. REWARD i think there could be a chance
Speaker 4: where maybe it does recapture that magic and people love
Speaker 4: and they're just, like, man they took their time in this,
Speaker 4: game but thank, goodness it's.
Speaker 3: Perfect Uh SO.
Speaker 4: I think it's it is a, risk BUT i want
Speaker 4: the high potential. REWARD i think it could be one
Speaker 4: of those games, like, damn look at. It it's like
Speaker 4: a nice like eighty nine eighty eight doing really. Well so,
Speaker 4: yeah you can take the risk with the With fable
Speaker 4: now so very.

Speaker 4: the middle there because place got. Taken i'm gonna replace
Speaker 4: replaced with another one that's. RISKY i have said many
Speaker 4: times that this game feels like a pyramid scheme that

Speaker 4: desert in, there because you know, what maybe it is
Speaker 4: everything it.
Speaker 3: Says maybe it.
Speaker 4: Is you can ride a raft and then swing Like

Speaker 4: Than Red, dead bigger Than, skyroom.
Speaker 3: You can swing Like Spider. Man you can do this
Speaker 3: like like it feels like a lot of.
Speaker 4: Hype but if for some reason then we're going for
Speaker 4: seven games with pans, out maybe it is the next big.
Speaker 4: Franchise we've seen that, before right new ip comes out
Speaker 4: and it's just, Huge So i'm hoping it's. That and
Speaker 4: Then i'm gonna take a safe one with The Mario.
Speaker 4: Tennis i've seen there kind of always between like the
Speaker 4: either low eighty or, seventies So i'm hoping it's a better.
Speaker 4: One but the other, GAMES i just either they don't
Speaker 4: have a date AND i DON'T i don't believe in,
Speaker 4: them or they're just too new where they are kind
Speaker 4: of like With Crimson Deavor, DESERT i can see the
Speaker 4: height where there's other ones WHERE i, Go, EH i
Speaker 4: don't know IF i believe enough in this to take
Speaker 4: a risk on. It So i'm just gonna With mario
Speaker 4: tens to be safe for, now and then if we
Speaker 4: add somebody can maybe revisit some of those other ones.
Speaker 4: Later but, Yeah i'm those.
Speaker 2: TWO i actually really like The Mario tennis. Pick there
Speaker 2: was just like some new trailer thing that came out last.
Speaker 2: WEEK i think that was, like, oh it has like
Speaker 2: thirty eight, characters the most in the series in the series,
Speaker 2: history AND i JUST i just wonder if they're gonna
Speaker 2: switch it, up BECAUSE i feel like all The switch
Speaker 2: one era sports games Like Strikers golf and the Original Tennis,
Speaker 2: aces like all of those games came out and they
Speaker 2: had like the amount of content they, did and then
Speaker 2: like over the next, year every month or, two they
Speaker 2: added like a couple of new, characters a new, map
Speaker 2: a new item or. Whatever AND i feel, like you,
Speaker 2: know because of, that obviously it's gonna like tank the
Speaker 2: review scores a bit on those, games because you, know
Speaker 2: a year, later if they came back and, reviewed it's, like,
Speaker 2: oh there's so much content, here so much more going. On,
Speaker 2: yeah and it seems, LIKE i don't know if this
Speaker 2: is what they're, doing if there's strategy is changed with
Speaker 2: the switch to but it seems like maybe they are
Speaker 2: switching that. Up and Like Tennis fever is gonna come
Speaker 2: out fully fledged, game not have like this drip feed.
Speaker 2: Content it's just gonna be like a, huge big game at,
Speaker 2: Once and so maybe that fares well for its review.
Speaker 2: Scores but that's all just kind of hearsay on my.
Speaker 4: Part releases with two characters nothing BUT dlc every, month
Speaker 4: it's a complete opposite spectrum What dylan.
Speaker 2: SAYS i, mean has like a story mode, too which
Speaker 2: you know people want from these sports. Games SO i don't.
Speaker 2: Know it looks really nice too in terms of the,
Speaker 2: Visuals so it could be a good hitter for. YOU
Speaker 2: i like, IT i.
Speaker 3: Hope SO i like that that makes me sound or makes,
Speaker 3: me uh feel.
Speaker 2: GOOD i PROBABLY i might have picked it If taylor
Speaker 2: didn't grabble these like GAMES i forgot.
