You 194 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:31.039 can collect the Kong leaders with your power up band 195 00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:34.159 they have for the four letters hit around the park. 196 00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:34.799 Yeah. 197 00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:38.000 But then the ride is this mike cart ride and 198 00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.519 just the facade of it is so cool because there's 199 00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:44.000 this giant waterfall. You see the mine carts like the 200 00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:47.120 ride going through one of those giant barrels and shooting 201 00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:50.399 over the top of it, and like the whole ride system. 202 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:52.480 If you haven't looked into this, it has a kind 203 00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:54.639 of fake rail that it looks like the cars are on, 204 00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:56.240 but the rail is actually much lower than that. 205 00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.799 So when you're on the right, does all this neat 206 00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:00.039 stuff with misdirects, like. 207 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.799 Oh, you're almost like it looks like you're gonna hit something, 208 00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:04.080 looks like the track's gonna go this way, but actually 209 00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:05.799 you're gonna jump the track. 210 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:06.440 And things like that. 211 00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:10.960 Really cool. The line has a Krikey Kong animatronic. Oh cool, 212 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:13.639 talks to you and he's talking to squawks the whole 213 00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:15.919 time too. What what's what's the accent they went for? 214 00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:18.519 He does not sound like the movie version, just kind 215 00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:20.279 of sounds like an old man. And I think it's 216 00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:23.159 a better sound for it, Okay for sure. Yeah, So, 217 00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:25.879 but just like just standing around there and vibing and 218 00:10:25.960 --> 00:10:28.559 Donkey Kong country was so so amazing being on the 219 00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:31.039 ride and when you're outside just get these great views 220 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:32.639 and it has synced audio on the ride and it's 221 00:10:32.679 --> 00:10:36.639 just playing Donkey Kong country music that sounds so freaking good. 222 00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:40.120 So yeah, I loved the Donkey Kong Country coaster, and 223 00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:41.960 I'm a bit of a wimp with coasters. This was 224 00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:44.600 definitely a mighty size coaster was still pretty good for 225 00:10:44.639 --> 00:10:46.879 me to do. But there's just so many elements and 226 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:48.960 thematic things to it. I won't get, you know, any 227 00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:52.279 big spoilers about those moments, but yeah, that ride ruled. 228 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:53.960 But then god, there's three other lands. 229 00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:57.960 There's a dark Dark Universe is the classic Universal Monsters. 230 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.519 It looks so cool and pictures so cool. 231 00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:03.320 The ride there is kind of like the Harry Potter 232 00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:05.600 and Forbidding Journey ride. It's that seem system, but just 233 00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:08.720 on crack and way. It like way more animatronics and 234 00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:10.960 less screens, so it's just so freaking. 235 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:12.360 Amerse cool and cool. 236 00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:14.960 How to Train Your Dragons section that is like the 237 00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:18.639 big Sleeper hit, so beautiful, so pretty. There's a there's 238 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:21.120 another coaster there. It's a bit more intense, but still 239 00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:24.480 relatively family friendly. There's like a Broadway style thirty minute 240 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:27.320 show thing, all sorts of beating greets. They got a 241 00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:30.720 guy who sounds so much like Hiccup that I think 242 00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.559 it's just Hiccup. I think they they found the computers 243 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:36.200 to just make cartoon characters reel or something. 244 00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:37.639 He's done a fantastic job. 245 00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:40.519 There's another Harry Potter section, of course, and this it's 246 00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:43.120 funny because it's Paris. It's seemed around that one movie 247 00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:45.240 nobody's saw. But of course they did a very very 248 00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.759 very good job with that. That was the one ride 249 00:11:47.879 --> 00:11:49.600 that wasn't open, but we walked through the queues. 250 00:11:49.639 --> 00:11:49.840 Great. 251 00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:52.840 But yeah, not to pimp another podcast, but I go 252 00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:54.679 into a lot of detail on this on a new 253 00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:56.480 nineties Disney that should be going up today. 254 00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:59.799 So uh but yeah, look, incredible time. 255 00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:02.480 There were a Harry Potter movie that people didn't see. 256 00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:07.279 Beast movies, No, there you got damn Yeah. They made 257 00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:09.200 they made like new ones that were prequels. 258 00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:12.480 That's when where they explained why the Wizards didn't help 259 00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:13.200 defeat Hitler. 260 00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:17.080 Yeah, because they had their own Hitler that smoked out 261 00:12:17.080 --> 00:12:18.679 of a skull hookah, right. 262 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.440 And it would have been worse if they had stopped Hitler. Yeah. 263 00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:23.440 Shoot, Hitler exists in Harry Potter. 264 00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:26.879 Yes, yeah, and shoot Rolling wants to tell you why 265 00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:28.080 it's okay that he was around. 266 00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:29.639 I see. 267 00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:37.039 Yeah, good movies, Bobbies in the one. Yeah they do. Yeah, there, 268 00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.679 they're a hell of a thing. Five minutes ago on 269 00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:42.720 this podcast, Dan said the Tiger R Zone and we 270 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:44.799 were all just like, yes, we know that thing. We're 271 00:12:44.840 --> 00:12:47.559 all very old men, and I just no, no. 272 00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:53.440 Let me guess something. Grub you instantly knew. Instantly, Jan, 273 00:12:53.679 --> 00:12:56.360 you don't, but you were just letting it go and 274 00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:00.159 Mike with some jostling, you remember it is that correct? No, 275 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:02.559 I immediately knew what you were talking about. Oh okay, okay, Jan, 276 00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:03.960 do you know the Tiger R Zone? 277 00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:06.039 Tiger R Zone? It sounds familiar. 278 00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:07.480 I had the Virtual Fighter one. 279 00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:10.360 Oh yeah, I've seen this, but I'm not old. 280 00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:14.480 I for Christmas once. It was the main thing I 281 00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:17.000 wanted because I thought it was gonna beam just like 282 00:13:17.039 --> 00:13:18.600 I thought it because in the pictures you would see 283 00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:21.000 somebody every kid looked so jazz to be playing in 284 00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:24.960 the magazine and they would have like lasers shooting into 285 00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.799 your eyes, and but you especially wouldn't really see a 286 00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:29.799 lot of gameplay stuff in these ads. So I just 287 00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:31.799 assumed it'd be like I'm in Virtual Fighter if I 288 00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:34.600 get this thing, And then I got it for Christmas, 289 00:13:34.759 --> 00:13:37.000 I demanded on the way home from my grandma's house 290 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:38.480 that my mom stopped at like a Walgreen so I 291 00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:41.600 can get a billion AA batteries and I can set 292 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:45.279 it up. And it is a little handheld like licensed 293 00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:49.279 Tiger things that are just like there's like two buttons 294 00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:51.840 and it just sucks ass. It's that, but it's red 295 00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:54.159 wireframes projected on glass in front of your face and 296 00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:56.480 you look. 297 00:13:56.399 --> 00:13:58.600 Like a little dragon ball scouter. Almost. 298 00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.399 Yes, it is the most dragon ball scouter thing. 299 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:04.679 I kind of I guess I didn't appreciate that back then. Yeah, yeah, 300 00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:05.519 it sucked it. 301 00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:09.480 Speaking about getting old gents, Oh yeah, we'll get into 302 00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:13.440 the podcast.

But 410 00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:04.319 I still was troubleshooting my stove yesterday and typed in oven, 411 00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:06.319 so I'm still working on it. 412 00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:09.240 Look, my opinion is it's weird that there's a box 413 00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:12.200 in your house that can get up to hundreds of degrees. Like, 414 00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:14.240 if I think about it that way, yes, ovens are weird. 415 00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:15.880 How did you mean it, Jana Choa? 416 00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:20.960 I meant it as in using a baking steel, which 417 00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:28.640 is pretty much a sheet of metal. No st Okay, Yes, 418 00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:31.079 I didn't, yes anyway, and then. 419 00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:33.640 You up. 420 00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:37.119 I went off kilter from that. 421 00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:39.400 The age is catching up to me. 422 00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:43.559 The first thing to go, Yeah, I'm Benjamin Buttoning through 423 00:19:43.559 --> 00:19:48.680 this podcast, and the instructions on the baking steel were 424 00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:51.559 crank your oven up hella hot hot as it can go, 425 00:19:51.759 --> 00:19:53.359 and leave that ship in there for an hour. 426 00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:58.000 And I'm like, okay, all right. And then the instructions 427 00:19:58.039 --> 00:20:00.400 were when I'm ready to go, when I'm ready for pizza, 428 00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:03.960 time to throw the pizza onto there, but switch to 429 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:07.519 the broiler because the pizza steel is so hot at 430 00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:10.359 this point that it'll cook the bottom with the residual heat. 431 00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:13.440 And that's insane, that's scary, that's crazy, scary. 432 00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:15.880 Just throw them out, dynamics it. 433 00:20:16.039 --> 00:20:19.359 Just like, I, why is there on top of this 434 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:23.359 hot box in my house that can reach hundreds of degrees. 435 00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:25.839 Like Grub said, now there's a sheet of metal in 436 00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:28.720 there that's like terrifyingly hot. 437 00:20:28.759 --> 00:20:31.319 Yeah, yeah, that's scary. And like I don't know if 438 00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:33.599 you're this might just be like an ADHD thing or something. 439 00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:35.119 But like when my head is just always in a 440 00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:38.039 like I can see myself and I've done it before, 441 00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:40.599 just thinking of something else and like grabbing the pan 442 00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:43.279 out of the oven or grabbing out the stovetop when 443 00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:45.160 it's like I don't even think about the fact that 444 00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:46.319 it's unbelievably hot. 445 00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:48.240 You know, I'm usually not in that situation, but I 446 00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:50.440 definitely am in the situation where I might left the 447 00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:52.559 oven on. That oven's been on for two and a 448 00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:53.160 half hours. 449 00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:55.559 Yeah, I yeahing with that. 450 00:20:55.839 --> 00:20:58.319 There's definitely Thanksgiving that I went to where I had 451 00:20:58.359 --> 00:20:59.920 to cook the rolls and I got to like the how, 452 00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:02.039 and I was like, I am pretty sure I did 453 00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:02.839 turn the oven off. 454 00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:06.400 Was like even go back, Like yep, sure enough, man, 455 00:21:06.559 --> 00:21:09.839 I impressed the ship out of myself yesterday. I hungry, Yeah, 456 00:21:09.839 --> 00:21:11.400 because it's like I just I threw a chicken in 457 00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:12.960 the souvid and I'll do that and then I'll like 458 00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:14.839 see what I have around and what I could do 459 00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:16.680 with it, Like I'll make some potatoes or carrots or whatever. 460 00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:20.160 I took the chicken out, I seared the chicken I threw. 461 00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:22.279 I chopped up some onions and roasted some onions in 462 00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:25.400 there with some canola oil. I put some avocado in there, 463 00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:28.000 some greens I made. I made a couple of cups 464 00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:31.440 of quenoa uh, and then cheese tortilla strips, some avocado 465 00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:35.000 ranch sauce. I made this fucking like Southwestern bowl with 466 00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:37.039 chicken and quinoa and roasted onions and ship and it 467 00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:39.319 was good as hell. And it wasn't like recipe. I'm 468 00:21:39.359 --> 00:21:41.039 just like learning how to do this stuff. 469 00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:43.960 You're just jazzing over the styling. 470 00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:45.680 It was so good. 471 00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:47.279 Sometime I was like, I made this. 472 00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:48.799 I just came up with this. This is great. 473 00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:51.599 Now. Do you think turnips would have improved it? 474 00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:52.880 It's impossible to know. 475 00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:55.839 Yeah, no, one, No, it could for sure, that's true. Yeah. 476 00:21:55.960 --> 00:21:59.079 Uh, Well, we're gonna switch things up on the podcast 477 00:21:59.079 --> 00:22:01.880 today and we're gonna star ared with the news Dar. 478 00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:05.480 I wasn't torn about this, I said right before we 479 00:22:05.519 --> 00:22:05.880 went up. 480 00:22:05.960 --> 00:22:09.160 Yeah, I was been distracted as okay, Okay, okay. 481 00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:13.119 Fair enough, fair enough. I can read the news, and 482 00:22:13.160 --> 00:22:15.319 I'm gonna do so right now, let's get through some 483 00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:18.480 of these headlines. But as does Oblivion, Unreal Engine five 484 00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:22.920 remake could be releasing sooner than you think. Rumors and 485 00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:25.400 have been, and a bunch of corroborated reports suggest a 486 00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:29.559 fully remade Elder Schools five Oblivion by Virtuous, which is 487 00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:31.599 the same team that is doing that Metal Gear remake 488 00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:35.119 Meddle Gear Solid three Delta. Uh, they're doing it unreliged five. 489 00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:38.000 That could release as soon as May or maybe through 490 00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:40.119 the end of June, so we'd probably have to hear 491 00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:42.279 about it soon and then this thing could pop off 492 00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:45.039 like a month later, maybe two months after that. 493 00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:45.759 Uh. 494 00:22:46.759 --> 00:22:48.359 You know, this rumor has been going around for a 495 00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:50.079 while that this game existed. It's kind of been an 496 00:22:50.079 --> 00:22:52.680 open secret. Every once like, yeah, that's that's happening, that's real. 497 00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:56.160 They still not ever acknowledged it publicly, so we're kind 498 00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:58.160 of waiting for that to see what it even looks like. 499 00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:01.440 But at this point, just get announced the next couple 500 00:23:01.480 --> 00:23:03.680 of weeks and then launch right after that. You guys 501 00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:07.519 looking forward to an Oblivion remake in Unreal Engine five. 502 00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:10.799 I never played Oblivion, so I feel like this would 503 00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:12.160 be a good way to finally check that out. 504 00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:16.240 It's really good. It's maybe my favorite one of those 505 00:23:16.279 --> 00:23:17.759 for its time, I think. 506 00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:18.480 So, Mikaia. 507 00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:21.880 You know, it's it's pretty equivalent to Skyrim in a 508 00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:24.039 lot of ways. It's an uglier game than Scarram for sure, 509 00:23:24.039 --> 00:23:27.519 and this will hopefully help with that. But the quest 510 00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:30.400 design is really really cool. I think, you know Skyrim 511 00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:33.440 and it works. It is a lot of snow, right, 512 00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:36.519 there's a bit more biodiversity here for you know, if 513 00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:39.440 it's not biodiversity, but to look at one landscape constantly, 514 00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:43.720 I'd rather look at grassy fields than jef snow. But yeah, 515 00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:47.519 things like the Thieves Guild quest whatnot or very memorable here. 516 00:23:47.559 --> 00:23:51.079 The expansion for it, Shivering Aisles, was very very good, 517 00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:55.000 So that content will be amazing to see. Had Patrick 518 00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:59.240 Stewart in the beginning that was yeah, yeah, yeah, I 519 00:23:59.279 --> 00:24:02.240 remember looking this game quite a lot. I think it'll 520 00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:05.000 be really neat to see what's a remake of it 521 00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:07.680 can look like. It'll just you know, it'll be interesting 522 00:24:07.720 --> 00:24:11.400 to see a Bethesda game running in Unreal How does 523 00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:11.920 that work? 524 00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.640 Yeah? I think that's kind of there's more to that, right. 525 00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:19.640 They're probably not just doing this because this is the 526 00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:21.640 way this one study wants to do things. They probably 527 00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:25.240 are considering the future of Bethesda Games and maybe should 528 00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:27.599 we be making these games and Unreal Engine five? Is 529 00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:31.519 that even possible with that translate? So they're probably gonna 530 00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:33.160 figure out some of that together with their work with 531 00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:35.880 Virtue Virtuos. Yeah, well, I believe it's the game for 532 00:24:35.920 --> 00:24:37.400 me where it like I'm like, oh, I really just 533 00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.319 like the sandbox stuff. I'm never gonna play this campaign. 534 00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:43.200 I don't care, and I'm gonna I'm still gonna spend 535 00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:45.480 one thousand en hoors in here. And the game really 536 00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:48.839 kind of came together for me and revealed them like oh, 537 00:24:48.839 --> 00:24:50.960 I just like goofing off in these games. It was. 538 00:24:51.119 --> 00:24:52.359 It was a really good time for it to come 539 00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:53.720 out to because I remember like, oh, we have the 540 00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:55.480 three sixty and it had a pretty good launch. I 541 00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:56.880 know everyone played a lot of like Call of Duty 542 00:24:56.920 --> 00:24:59.039 two and stuff like that, but everybody was waiting for 543 00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:01.319 that that big game, and I remember everyone saying like, oh, 544 00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:02.960 wait for like March or whenever it came out, be 545 00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:04.799 like Oblivion's coming in. That's what the fuck is Oblivion? 546 00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:08.000 And you know, I'd heard Moro win before, but I 547 00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:09.640 also heard all the complaints about it, and they're like, oh, 548 00:25:09.640 --> 00:25:11.599 it's gonna be like that, but way better. And it 549 00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:13.880 was my first dive into one of those big kind 550 00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:16.480 of like Western RPGs, and I one hundred percent of 551 00:25:16.480 --> 00:25:19.359 that game got ever achievement, like love love, love of Oblivion. 552 00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:20.599 So I'll play that again. 553 00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:25.359 Yeah, looking forward to it. Apparently March twentieth, two thousand 554 00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:27.799 and six is the release dates. 555 00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:29.880 I remember because it was like this, It was very 556 00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:31.759 close to what kedom Arts two came out, and I 557 00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:34.119 was very much looking for to Keeno Arts two and 558 00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:36.759 my brother Adri was very much looking forward to Oblivion. 559 00:25:36.759 --> 00:25:38.559 And actually it was years later when I finally did 560 00:25:38.640 --> 00:25:41.319 play Oblivion. I was too fulk I had years to 561 00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:43.240 worry about Kingdom Warts two instead. 562 00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:45.440 Yeah, it took you that long to decode the story 563 00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:48.640 at that point. That back then the story was the 564 00:25:49.160 --> 00:25:49.720 no never. 565 00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:51.200 Mind just starting to go up. The rail was a 566 00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:52.799 bit with ude is starting. 567 00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.599 Yeah. Uh, Chat reminds me, says that March with Oblivion 568 00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:59.759 Fight Night Round three and Gras was so awesome. Man, 569 00:25:59.799 --> 00:26:02.559 that here are those three back to back to back. 570 00:26:02.599 --> 00:26:05.440 It's like, yep, I remember that. That month was just like, oh, 571 00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:07.960 this is the three sixty, like the face ship on 572 00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:11.480 Fight Night Round three, the just egregious. It was so good. 573 00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:14.240 And also it's like it was much more video game 574 00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:16.920 monoculture back then, because I would like listen to one 575 00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:18.440 up yours and maybe so they would talk about all 576 00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:20.160 those games. Then I would go turn on the Xbox 577 00:26:20.160 --> 00:26:23.720 three sixty and every single person on my friends list, yeah, 578 00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:27.039 forty to fifty people. Everyone would go from the one 579 00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:29.920 game to the next game together. Yeah. Everyone was just 580 00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:33.000 going from like grawl into oblivion and it was like, okay, 581 00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:34.640 so we're all just gonna go talk about this now. 582 00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:37.480 And then there were gas that were like that, like 583 00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:40.519 Prey was one of those. The first Lost Planet was 584 00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:42.880 one of those. For maybe even the first Dead Rising. 585 00:26:43.319 --> 00:26:45.839 Yeah Rising was huge. Yeah. I never got in the 586 00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:46.440 Lost Planet. 587 00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:49.799 It did either. Actually me, I tried a couple of times. 588 00:26:50.519 --> 00:26:52.039 I thought it was weird becase I'm like, this doesn't 589 00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:52.839 do anything for me. 590 00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:55.680 I liked it a bunch. I liked running around in 591 00:26:55.720 --> 00:26:57.119 the snow, and I do I did. 592 00:26:56.960 --> 00:26:58.519 Get like I was looking into it the other day. 593 00:26:58.519 --> 00:27:01.960 I'm like, could we play a cooperative lost planet uh 594 00:27:02.359 --> 00:27:04.599 today and see what that looks like. I'd be curious 595 00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:05.400 just to check it out. 596 00:27:05.599 --> 00:27:07.680 Are we all collectively just entering the age of three 597 00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:10.200 sixty nostalgia? Because like, between all these lists we've all 598 00:27:10.200 --> 00:27:12.200 been making lately and now we're all getting jazz. I'm 599 00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:13.920 just talking about memories of three sixty? 600 00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:15.599 Is that the star spot for There wasn't a time 601 00:27:15.640 --> 00:27:17.839 where it was like, considering the Xbox three sixty a 602 00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:20.519 retro console is crazy, yeah. 603 00:27:20.200 --> 00:27:25.000 And I'm like, that's not crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, twenty 604 00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:25.480 years ago. 605 00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:29.039 Yeah yeah, I mean I think it is. 606 00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:32.680 Yeah, I think so. You know, we're GameCube? Was it 607 00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:35.880 like the black hole of like a retro game nostalgia 608 00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:38.519 for a long long time? And I think we're just 609 00:27:38.559 --> 00:27:41.440 getting over the hump of like that. It's taking up 610 00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:42.240 all the oxygen out of it. 611 00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:44.079 It's interesting though, because like I don't think there's gonna 612 00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:47.160 be a giant xboxery sixty collecting scene because one of 613 00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:51.079 consoles signed Portley and Break a Lot and you know, 614 00:27:51.279 --> 00:27:53.799 like you get Xbox three sixty, what does that look like? 615 00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:54.359 What do you want? 616 00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:57.240 You want blades right, and you're gonna plug it in. 617 00:27:57.279 --> 00:27:59.799 Maybe you're gonna get avatars and that's super clean, white 618 00:27:59.799 --> 00:28:02.400 and all. So pretty much all of those games are 619 00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:05.119 just on PC and are cheaper and look better. So 620 00:28:05.200 --> 00:28:07.720 it's you know, collecting for three sixties kind of weird. 621 00:28:08.119 --> 00:28:10.359 That's funny. Like I always found the like Nostalia sweet 622 00:28:10.359 --> 00:28:12.880 Spot with the audience and just us is like always 623 00:28:12.880 --> 00:28:15.240 about you know, fifteen to twenty years behind, because I 624 00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:17.480 remember when I started the game and Former in nine. 625 00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:19.440 You know, it was like all the retro stuff I 626 00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:21.200 was doing on replay to start was like S and 627 00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:22.319 E S stuff. You know, it was like a lot 628 00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:24.119 of links to the past and things like that. In 629 00:28:24.119 --> 00:28:25.720 a couple of years, then I start realizing that, like 630 00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:27.680 oh man, when I started doing like Mario Party videos 631 00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:29.559 and like in sixty four stuff like those are really 632 00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:32.160 blowing up. Those are doing great, and like five years ago, 633 00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:34.480 you're right, GameCube was definitely a big thing, and now 634 00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:36.839 it's like I do kind of feel like we're moving 635 00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:38.400 into that three sixty era, you know. 636 00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:40.880 Yep, absolutely, I mean I think we could uh do 637 00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:43.960 like an Xbox Live Summer of Arcade stream, like play 638 00:28:43.960 --> 00:28:46.000 a bunch of those games, and I bet that would hit. 639 00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:48.079 Those for a lot of time. Write that down. I 640 00:28:48.079 --> 00:28:50.000 got on Misplosion man. 641 00:28:50.039 --> 00:28:52.200 Okay, hey yeah, oh he's going to play on a 642 00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:54.440 Commando rearm Oh good one. 643 00:28:54.480 --> 00:28:55.519 Yeah, not the hot one. 644 00:28:55.559 --> 00:28:57.279 Yeah. 645 00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:04.759 We should do Love More Trials Trials too, Yes, and 646 00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:06.640 plus I love plus plus. 647 00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:09.640 Yep. We could do a pac Man Championship Edition DX 648 00:29:09.640 --> 00:29:11.440 and just tournament or whatever. Yeah. 649 00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:14.119 People won't shut up about Wick in the Fable of Souls. 650 00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:17.240 That's right. Yeah, I can't well walk five steps out 651 00:29:17.279 --> 00:29:19.000 of my house without being assaulted about that. 652 00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:21.359 Game Shadow Complex. Oh yeah, we have to do it. Yes, 653 00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:24.240 let's do maybe Okay, yes, yes, yes, I'm writing that down. 654 00:29:24.079 --> 00:29:27.279 To appreciate that summer, our summer of summer. 655 00:29:28.279 --> 00:29:30.279 Maybe I'll do that for records. Let the money, I'll 656 00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:31.839 take a look at that would be okay. 657 00:29:32.599 --> 00:29:36.039 The first portable Xbox could reportedly hit shelves this year. 658 00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:40.519 Microsoft has uh reportedly worked with a sus on a 659 00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:43.960 project called Project Canaan. I'm gonna say Canaan. I'm not 660 00:29:43.960 --> 00:29:46.799 sure if that's exactly how to say. It's not Keenan. 661 00:29:46.839 --> 00:29:51.279 Apparently there's no there, uh Canaan aimy for a unified 662 00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:54.640 library of Xbox and PC games. Uh, basically is gonna 663 00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:57.200 do the hardware. Microsoft is going to tell them what 664 00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:00.000 they need from the hardware and then do the soft 665 00:30:00.039 --> 00:30:03.920 for environments, so the OS, the interface, all that stuff. 666 00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:07.480 They're bringing back Blades hopefully for this. But yeah, this 667 00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:08.680 is the kind of thing where it's like, I think 668 00:30:09.039 --> 00:30:12.119 they might still make their own hardware separate from this. 669 00:30:12.119 --> 00:30:14.279 This is the quickest way to just like get something 670 00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:17.480 out there and solve the biggest problem with PC handhelds, 671 00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:21.200 which is the interface can be cumbersome sometimes, and Microsoft's 672 00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:24.440 acknowledged that. Phil Spencer's talked about that repeatedly, So them like, 673 00:30:24.720 --> 00:30:27.000 you know that they have a team inside they're trying 674 00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:31.240 to make a UX experience that actually is fun to 675 00:30:31.359 --> 00:30:33.720 use and easy to use on a PC handheld and 676 00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:35.720 sounds like they're going to launch a product focused on 677 00:30:35.759 --> 00:30:40.039 that this year. You guys, like, how are you feeling 678 00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:42.880 about your handheld PCs right now? And do you need 679 00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:43.720 an Xbox one. 680 00:30:43.960 --> 00:30:46.559 It's a little bit weird, Like I'd like my Asis 681 00:30:46.720 --> 00:30:50.680 rog Lax quite a bit still, but I also am like, Okay, 682 00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:52.960 let's see what the switch to can do. And let's 683 00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:55.480 see just how many things get poored. They're including Xbox 684 00:30:55.519 --> 00:31:00.440 games anyways, right right, very luckily just show up on 685 00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:02.559 the switch to But you know, I'm still gonna be 686 00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:05.319 curious what the Xbox thing looks like, even though I 687 00:31:05.359 --> 00:31:07.880 kind of expect it to be very similar to a 688 00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:10.160 rog ally X yeah. 689 00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:12.880 And similar and interface to the way the Xbox works, 690 00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:15.400 which is, you know, I'm used to that these days, 691 00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:17.000 and I'm like, I'm okay with it. I think it's 692 00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:19.240 pretty good, but it's not gonna blow anyone socks off 693 00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:22.279 to be like, yeah, okay, Xbox UI on a handheld PC. 694 00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:24.759 I don't know. Maybe they have other ideas, but I 695 00:31:24.799 --> 00:31:25.839 don't know what kind. 696 00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:31.559 Do you think this is gonna be black black somewhere 697 00:31:31.599 --> 00:31:34.240 on it? In my head, I feel like it's gonna 698 00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:35.160 be sand Camo. 699 00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:38.240 Yeah. I don't know why. 700 00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:42.559 Yeah, yeah, yeah, I just think it's gonna be Yeah, 701 00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:43.720 it's gonna be sand Camo. 702 00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:45.759 It's gonna just have like a big X on it. 703 00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:48.720 I've been I've been playing Donkey Kong sixty four, so 704 00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:52.200 now every time I think about I don't because I 705 00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:54.279 got the N sixty four over here hooked up and 706 00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:57.680 I'm like, I I'm like, I hate that game, I think, 707 00:31:57.759 --> 00:32:00.319 but I'm I bet it's better than I remember. I 708 00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:02.519 just really, you know, there's a hacked version of the 709 00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:05.079 of that rom where you could switch the characters out 710 00:32:05.079 --> 00:32:07.559 on the fly. He fixes a lot. Huh yeah, and 711 00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:09.680 I'm like that. I haven't played that, bink. If I 712 00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:11.799 had that, I bet that would fix just about most 713 00:32:11.839 --> 00:32:12.920 of my problems with that game. 714 00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:15.640 It's the backtracking, and yeah, that's the worst part. It's 715 00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:17.920 I kind of like to back then. But as someone 716 00:32:17.920 --> 00:32:20.240 who has many times in his life been like, I 717 00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:22.240 bet it's better than we think it is, and gone 718 00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:25.160 back and done a whole series based on it. No, 719 00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:26.880 it's got the right reputation. 720 00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:30.160 That That's kind of where I'm settling in at least 721 00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:32.559 like it looks all right. But yeah, Funky Kong and 722 00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:35.000 his fatigues in that game always sends me. I'm like, 723 00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:35.559 what are you doing? 724 00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:38.599 I hope everyone at that Antarctic research station is enjoying 725 00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:39.359 the copy. 726 00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:42.279 Multiple times now. 727 00:32:42.279 --> 00:32:43.960 I'm sure, I dream if. 728 00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:47.680 They haven't had things yet, Wow, yeah, we don't know. 729 00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:48.599 We haven't checked in on one. 730 00:32:48.599 --> 00:32:50.119 Bottom came out. 731 00:32:53.200 --> 00:32:55.720 Apple Arcade is getting a brand new Katamari Debossi game, 732 00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:58.880 as well as a Space Invaders game next month. This 733 00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:03.799 this Katamarry Demassi Rolling Live, as it's called, uh, looks 734 00:33:03.839 --> 00:33:06.240 like a full on katamor Katemory game. But it's gonna 735 00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:08.200 be locked to Apple Arcade at least for some time. 736 00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:10.759 But because it's Apple Arcade, I mean, so it won't 737 00:33:10.759 --> 00:33:13.240 have micro transactions. It's gonna be a real video game, 738 00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:15.720 like a lot of the Apple Arcade stuff we've gotten before. 739 00:33:16.039 --> 00:33:18.720 And I'm okay with this. You know, I have Apple devices. 740 00:33:18.759 --> 00:33:20.720 I will probably try to play this on there. But 741 00:33:20.759 --> 00:33:22.160 even if I have to wait for it to get 742 00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:25.920 on switch to or or PC six to six months 743 00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:28.000 to a year later, I'm okay with that. Just happy 744 00:33:28.039 --> 00:33:29.920 that Katamari is still rolling along. 745 00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:36.440 I wonder how they're gonna make the levels given that 746 00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:40.079 the King of the Cosmos is now a hit streamer. 747 00:33:40.599 --> 00:33:44.039 Yes he's a Yes, he's a live streamer. He's a 748 00:33:44.079 --> 00:33:48.680 press record with uh yeah live on TV. Yeah, he's 749 00:33:48.680 --> 00:33:52.279 a streamer in this game, now, Dan, Yes. 750 00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:55.480 That's good. I love that. Yeah. 751 00:33:55.519 --> 00:33:59.240 So it's it's a great point of shame of me 752 00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:02.319 that I've actually ever really played any of these games. 753 00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:02.599 Somehow. 754 00:34:02.640 --> 00:34:05.079 I don't know how that happened. It looks like something 755 00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:08.639 I would like quite a bit. I think you would played. 756 00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:11.039 There's got to be a delight club where we make 757 00:34:11.079 --> 00:34:14.840 you play this. Oh yeah, yeah, I think it's like. 758 00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:17.239 The game I got it was PS two, right, I 759 00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:19.519 think I got my PS two for this with the 760 00:34:19.559 --> 00:34:21.079 hope of like okay, and then I'll get Shadow of 761 00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:24.320 the Classes like so yeah, as soon as it was 762 00:34:24.360 --> 00:34:25.639 available in the United States. 763 00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:27.239 That's the best one to play these days. Is they're 764 00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:29.000 like a good remaster of like one of them. So 765 00:34:29.000 --> 00:34:29.719 I just played it rich. 766 00:34:30.039 --> 00:34:32.800 The re roll on switch is good. That's all. The 767 00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:35.440 first one, which the first one'still my favorite beautiful Katemary 768 00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:36.280 is really good too, but. 769 00:34:36.880 --> 00:34:40.920 About always remember we love katamar we heart Katamorus like 770 00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:41.639 that's a neat title. 771 00:34:41.719 --> 00:34:46.679 The second one on PS two, I was the second okay, okay, yeah, 772 00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:47.679 that's first few. We're all good. 773 00:34:48.760 --> 00:34:53.000 You should play it, Mike, because the soundtrack is crucial. Yeah, 774 00:34:53.000 --> 00:34:54.440 you have to have that as a part. King of 775 00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:55.800 All Too Cosmas. 776 00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:58.519 Yeah, yeah, you got it, you got it. Good one 777 00:34:58.559 --> 00:34:59.719 there Mental Thank. 778 00:34:59.559 --> 00:35:03.079 You PlayStation is partnering with people can Fly on a 779 00:35:03.119 --> 00:35:08.000 mystery game franchise. People can Fly, the team that did 780 00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:11.599 Outriders and Bullet Storm. They put out a thing for 781 00:35:11.639 --> 00:35:14.239 their investors saying, we're working with Sony on as a 782 00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:17.360 contract studio on an IP that they own. So it 783 00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:19.719 could be an existing IP, it could be a new 784 00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:23.159 IP that Sony owns in some way, but we don't 785 00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:25.519 know what it is. People can Fly though there's done 786 00:35:25.519 --> 00:35:27.960 a lot of contract work on stuff like Years of War, 787 00:35:28.360 --> 00:35:30.760 so they you know, they're associated with being the shooter 788 00:35:30.840 --> 00:35:34.599 people to make games, you know, the shooting games. What 789 00:35:34.679 --> 00:35:37.400 do you guys want them to be working on? Jumping? 790 00:35:40.519 --> 00:35:43.440 I'm gonna get it out of the way now, so calm. 791 00:35:43.800 --> 00:35:48.519 I think that's more likely than jumping Flashy. 792 00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:50.440 But he's an astrobot. 793 00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:52.440 How many socoms were an astrobot? 794 00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:52.920 Huh? 795 00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:55.440 Everyone's a so calm if you try hard enough, Like 796 00:35:55.480 --> 00:35:58.480 come on, what if? 797 00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:00.760 And I still haven't played the game, even though I 798 00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:04.199 kind of want to. We get a sequel to the 799 00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:05.599 Order eighteen eighty six. 800 00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:07.320 Oh no, I. 801 00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:10.199 Like that game. I do. I like it. 802 00:36:10.519 --> 00:36:12.079 I am trying to figure out like what it could 803 00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:15.599 possibly be. You know, we're talking about three sixteen nostalgia 804 00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:19.119 so you assume PS three nostalgia is probably equally a thing. 805 00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:20.920 Lair not there. 806 00:36:21.000 --> 00:36:24.880 But I never cared for Resistance that much or even 807 00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:28.920 kills them, to be honest. But you know, maybe those 808 00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:30.920 and those are ones where I don't think those original 809 00:36:30.920 --> 00:36:33.519 studios are going back to those franchise. They both moved 810 00:36:33.559 --> 00:36:36.480 on to kind of bigger, better things. But Mabe, people 811 00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:38.760 can fly. I can do something with like a remake 812 00:36:38.800 --> 00:36:41.360 of Resistance. I don't know when I say that it 813 00:36:41.440 --> 00:36:44.079 doesn't have very much appeal to me, but maybe that's 814 00:36:44.079 --> 00:36:45.519 triggering some other people. 815 00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:48.079 Siphon filter. 816 00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:51.800 I have a lot of value these days, right, That's 817 00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:54.559 the thing. It's like, look you lad of Meal Jumping Flash. 818 00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:56.599 But it's like all of these things are almost starting 819 00:36:56.599 --> 00:36:58.880 back from zero. So maybe just look at the one 820 00:36:58.920 --> 00:37:01.679 that's kind of the is it interesting? Maybe I'm being 821 00:37:01.920 --> 00:37:03.159 optimistic there. 822 00:37:03.320 --> 00:37:05.760 But I mean a little bit, because you know, the 823 00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:09.199 pessimistic pessimistic version of this is that they are making 824 00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:11.719 a single player campaign for one of these live service 825 00:37:11.760 --> 00:37:14.480 games that got green lighted in the last Sure, some 826 00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:17.400 bullshit we've never heard of before that we actually wouldn't 827 00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:19.559 care about. Like maybe if we put a single player 828 00:37:19.599 --> 00:37:21.840 campaign in there. People will care about it, and it's 829 00:37:21.880 --> 00:37:23.639 people could fly. They could just do that as a 830 00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:27.000 contract job. So I got it. I got to crack 831 00:37:27.039 --> 00:37:28.840 the code. Concord. 832 00:37:30.400 --> 00:37:35.880 That's concord with a campaign. Sure, bring it back, everybody. 833 00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:39.199 Quick update here as I have been putting together a 834 00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:42.440 list of potential xbo A games for a stream on Monday. Okay, 835 00:37:42.480 --> 00:37:45.559 here's here's the Murderer's Row. Okay, yeah, I gotta start 836 00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:50.400 with Hexakhd the first one. Sure, Dorito's Crash Course, Misplosion 837 00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:53.400 Man Trials. I would love to see if we could 838 00:37:53.400 --> 00:37:58.000 play that multiplayer Castlevania Harmony of Despair. We can play that, 839 00:37:58.079 --> 00:37:59.519 still possible? 840 00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:01.920 Me and Sean will look into that. Yeah, okay, well 841 00:38:02.360 --> 00:38:03.400 maybe Parsec. 842 00:38:03.079 --> 00:38:08.639 That okay, Geometry Wars, Shrek and Roll Cloning, Clyde Wick, 843 00:38:08.760 --> 00:38:12.719 Fable of Souls and Mad Balls and Babo Invasion, Mad 844 00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:14.519 all the Stars. 845 00:38:14.960 --> 00:38:17.079 God, yeah, got a lot of those things were triggering, 846 00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:23.440 that's for sure. Miss Explosion Man. Yeah uh yeah, I'm okay, 847 00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:24.199 I'm looking forward to that. 848 00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:27.639 That sounds like a good time. I liked mister splosh Man. 849 00:38:27.639 --> 00:38:29.679 I played some misplosh Man. I didn't play all of that. 850 00:38:29.719 --> 00:38:30.079 All those. 851 00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:35.440 And Misplosion Man, right, exactly, that's right. 852 00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:39.880 I can't believe the credits theme they had for mister 853 00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:41.760 Splosion Man is part of the reason why I bought 854 00:38:41.760 --> 00:38:47.599 a ukulele. Really, yeah, I can't believe the craziest sence 855 00:38:47.639 --> 00:38:48.400 you've ever said. 856 00:38:48.679 --> 00:38:52.960 No, that makes a lot of sense. Actually, all right, 857 00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:56.840 AI upscaling on Nintato switch to is basically confirmed thanks 858 00:38:56.880 --> 00:39:00.199 to an updated patent. Really, we we know, we know 859 00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:01.519 this thing's going to happen, but there is a new 860 00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:04.360 patent that just talks about the AI up scaling solution 861 00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:07.280 for the upcoming switch to. The AI upscaling will allow 862 00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:10.840 a native five forty P image to output at ten ADP, 863 00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:15.559 saving storage space for games. That's not really how that works. Yeah, 864 00:39:15.599 --> 00:39:17.880 it's going to make it so that you can run faster, 865 00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:19.960 becau it's easier to render out five hundred and forty 866 00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:23.360 you know, pixels horizontally than it is or vertically than 867 00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:26.920 it is to do ten adp. They're using DLSS. We 868 00:39:26.960 --> 00:39:29.920 should see this here pretty soon because that April second 869 00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:32.880 reveal is just closer and closer every day. That is 870 00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:33.920 how linear time works. 871 00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:36.800 That is so close. 872 00:39:36.880 --> 00:39:39.920 I am very excited for that Yeah, I'm curious to 873 00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:42.079 see what this looks like, if it's going to somehow 874 00:39:42.079 --> 00:39:49.320 apply to like Switch one backwards compatibility or anything like that. Well, 875 00:39:49.360 --> 00:39:50.920 I just want to see you. You're saying on Game 876 00:39:51.400 --> 00:39:55.000 Miss Mornings on Game Breaking News the other day, Yeah, 877 00:39:55.119 --> 00:39:59.000 that you think there's a good possibility Metro Prime Forest 878 00:39:59.039 --> 00:40:02.199 talked about quite a bit the switch to Direct. 879 00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:05.159 I mean, that's what the reporting says now, and also 880 00:40:06.000 --> 00:40:07.320 when the hell else would they talk about it. 881 00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:14.480 I'm coming out this year? That was so good? 882 00:40:15.239 --> 00:40:17.519 Yeah, yeah, I mean, because we're two weeks away, less 883 00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:19.920 than two weeks away from that April second event, and 884 00:40:20.519 --> 00:40:21.920 they have to tell us what's going on with that 885 00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:24.559 game that they've already told investors multiple times this year 886 00:40:24.960 --> 00:40:27.920 is a Switch one game? Still? So yeah? 887 00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:29.760 Right, And I mean, look, you guys are trying to 888 00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:32.039 dunk on me a lot, like, Oh, Mike was gonna 889 00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:34.880 come out Switch one originally? Yes, but the argument did 890 00:40:34.960 --> 00:40:37.760 change to what is it going to be mostly positioned 891 00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:39.880 as a Switch one game or a Switch two game? 892 00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:42.800 And I think jury still out on that one. 893 00:40:43.199 --> 00:40:45.280 It feels like if it's a big part of this 894 00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:48.320 April second event, it's mostly going to be considered a 895 00:40:48.360 --> 00:40:52.639 switch to game widely. Silent Hill f's release date may 896 00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:55.000 be sooner than expected. It got rated by the SRB. 897 00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:58.639 That's that's the story here. This is a thing that 898 00:40:58.679 --> 00:41:01.800 happens when a game is about eight to you know, 899 00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:05.280 twelve weeks out, you know, not always it could take 900 00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:07.199 longer than that. But this is the kind of thing 901 00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:09.519 that happens when it's you know, not actually that far 902 00:41:09.679 --> 00:41:13.920 away from release. So Silent Hill F could release this year. 903 00:41:14.320 --> 00:41:16.599 Did you guys all watch the trailer? I caught up 904 00:41:16.639 --> 00:41:18.320 on it. I thought it was pretty good. 905 00:41:18.519 --> 00:41:20.039 It was it was good, but yeah, it did not 906 00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:22.480 have a date, didn't even have a year, So usually 907 00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:24.760 I take that as a sign of oh, not anytime soon, 908 00:41:24.960 --> 00:41:26.599 even though there was a lot that they showed in 909 00:41:26.639 --> 00:41:29.280 that trailer, right, so yes, yeah, maybe they're just being 910 00:41:29.360 --> 00:41:31.639 kloyd because they want to save that reveal for the 911 00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:34.519 next showing of this, maybe in some larger showcase or 912 00:41:34.559 --> 00:41:35.760 just another big drop. 913 00:41:36.039 --> 00:41:38.119 I don't know, but yeah, it was a good looking trailer. 914 00:41:38.440 --> 00:41:40.880 Great that the trailer did pop off at like it 915 00:41:40.920 --> 00:41:43.800 was a Silent Hill like event, right, like a little 916 00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:47.519 show for Silent Hill news. I like, we'll save the 917 00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:48.400 date for something else. 918 00:41:48.840 --> 00:41:52.000 I love how they've been running those events where the 919 00:41:52.079 --> 00:41:55.679 producers and whoever's talking about the game is obviously on 920 00:41:55.760 --> 00:41:58.519 a set, but they just add so much CGI fog 921 00:41:58.639 --> 00:41:59.239 to everything. 922 00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:05.239 Right, PlayStation has formed a new studio called Dark Outlaw 923 00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:09.199 Games with Call of Duty Zombies lead Jason Blundell. Sony 924 00:42:09.239 --> 00:42:12.119 has launched a new first party studio with Jason formerly 925 00:42:12.119 --> 00:42:15.599 of Treearch and Deviation Games. Deviation was that other studio 926 00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:19.360 that Sony was working with, I think closed down after 927 00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:21.320 like the game got canceled. I can't remember the exact 928 00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:24.119 history there, you know me, I can only think about 929 00:42:24.119 --> 00:42:28.079 Concord and then Fair Games. Yeah, the studio is working 930 00:42:28.079 --> 00:42:31.519 in secrecy for now. By Bloondale emphasized the privilege of 931 00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:36.480 establishing a new studio working with Sony. You know, probably 932 00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:38.400 probably a shooter game. I don't know. I guess I 933 00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:40.000 don't know what to expect from from these kind of 934 00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:45.480 partnerships anymore. On the service, right, come on, probably probably, 935 00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:47.239 But I mean this is a new studio they're starting 936 00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:49.719 right now after the last live service thing didn't work 937 00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:51.079 with Deviation, right, So. 938 00:42:51.880 --> 00:42:54.880 Yeah, but I mean yeah, they say they're still committed 939 00:42:54.960 --> 00:42:55.119 to it. 940 00:42:55.159 --> 00:42:56.519 Though, and I bet a lot of them are like, 941 00:42:56.559 --> 00:42:59.519 we have to make it work still somehow. 942 00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:02.239 You're right, it's probably hybrid with like, well, it's a 943 00:43:02.239 --> 00:43:04.559 trojan horse to get to something that is live service. 944 00:43:04.599 --> 00:43:07.119 But maybe that's not so be so brazen about we're 945 00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:09.280 making a live service game. For all those live service 946 00:43:09.320 --> 00:43:12.000 game fans out there, they will probably position at publicly 947 00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:15.760 a little bit differently, I would imagine, all right, and 948 00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:19.440 then just a little roundup of Star Wars stuff. Response. 949 00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:22.159 Next Star Wars game is going to be revealed at 950 00:43:22.159 --> 00:43:25.639 Star Wars celebration in Tokyo on April nineteenth. That is 951 00:43:25.639 --> 00:43:27.719 the one that they're working on with bit Reactor, which 952 00:43:27.760 --> 00:43:30.920 is a studio of former Xcom and Civilization veterans from 953 00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:35.199 for Axis. It's a strategy tactics game. We haven't seen 954 00:43:35.239 --> 00:43:37.559 it before. They haven't really actually even said the name 955 00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:39.960 or anything like that other than just confirmed this is happening. 956 00:43:40.280 --> 00:43:42.639 So we will get the details about that next month. 957 00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:46.440 And then Kotor remake is still in the works at Saber. 958 00:43:46.480 --> 00:43:50.360 They've once again reconfirmed that, although you know, Sony has 959 00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:52.719 not said anything about it other than taking that trailer 960 00:43:52.760 --> 00:43:55.079 off of its YouTube page a long time long time ago. 961 00:43:55.159 --> 00:43:58.159 It's the last thing that happened with that, So definitely 962 00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:01.679 still some weirdness around there, but chugging along apparently. And 963 00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:05.000 then Star Wars Hunters is shutting down in October, and 964 00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:07.039 I know you guys were sad about this one. Oh 965 00:44:07.039 --> 00:44:08.559 you big Star Wars Hunter's heads. 966 00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:12.280 Yeah, that's us. We were the hunter Heads, the hun guys. 967 00:44:12.079 --> 00:44:15.039 Just like any Zinga game is what it is, of course. 968 00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:18.800 Yeah, what was the fucking Zinga game. It was around 969 00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:20.920 the time of like some convention, because I remember it 970 00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:22.400 was one of the things where like a game came 971 00:44:22.440 --> 00:44:25.840 out for phones everybody in the universe was playing. I 972 00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:27.880 remember there was one convention or DC or something where 973 00:44:27.880 --> 00:44:29.800 it's like nobody could stop playing it. You get to 974 00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.039 draw stuff, and it was like it was a two 975 00:44:32.079 --> 00:44:35.400 player thing, so on a farmville, no. 976 00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:38.400 Words with friends or something. 977 00:44:38.480 --> 00:44:41.920 No, No, it's like and I think Zinga bought the 978 00:44:41.960 --> 00:44:44.679 studio that made draw something. It was to draw something, 979 00:44:45.000 --> 00:44:47.440 that's what it is. I remember that being the biggest 980 00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:49.639 thing in the world for like two weeks and then 981 00:44:49.760 --> 00:44:51.880 like they got bought off of all that hype and 982 00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:53.360 then no one ever talked about it again. 983 00:44:53.519 --> 00:44:54.559 We should play draws. 984 00:44:55.559 --> 00:44:56.639 We're being really good. 985 00:44:57.840 --> 00:45:00.519 Yeah, based on the Breu game draw my thing. 986 00:45:00.840 --> 00:45:03.159 All right, Yeah, well I'm sure to wonder what a 987 00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:05.119 Code to or remake looks like, right, because I feel 988 00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:07.519 like just a few years ago it would have been like, yeah, 989 00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:09.840 let's make it way more like real time combat and 990 00:45:10.199 --> 00:45:12.719 things like that. But now we're in a post Bordersgate 991 00:45:12.800 --> 00:45:13.840 three world. 992 00:45:13.800 --> 00:45:15.679 Right, and this is a game code Or was a 993 00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:17.840 game based on D and D rules, so yes. 994 00:45:17.840 --> 00:45:19.840 It was also bio or just like the first two 995 00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:22.639 Boulders Gates were. So yeah, you know, it's doing stuff 996 00:45:22.679 --> 00:45:26.159 like the invisible dice rolls and and things like that, 997 00:45:26.280 --> 00:45:28.280 and it was great and it's still great. 998 00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:28.880 Yeah. 999 00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:30.960 Still I still love playing Codeors. 1000 00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:32.719 So I feel like you go in there now and 1001 00:45:32.840 --> 00:45:36.679 try to you know, Dragon Age, Veilguard or something like 1002 00:45:36.719 --> 00:45:40.119 that that might be received pretty poorly. Like it's one 1003 00:45:40.119 --> 00:45:42.000 of those things where I would be pretty happy just 1004 00:45:42.039 --> 00:45:45.039 to have a relatively one to one remake with just 1005 00:45:45.079 --> 00:45:47.360 some extra juice on the graphics. I don't know if 1006 00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:50.920 that's the scale that they're thinking of. Boy, yeah, that's 1007 00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:53.159 that seems like a very difficult project. 1008 00:45:53.519 --> 00:45:53.760 Yeah. 1009 00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:57.760 I Code Tour is another series that escaped me as 1010 00:45:57.760 --> 00:46:00.199 a youth, and I'd love to circle back and check 1011 00:46:00.440 --> 00:46:03.320 Tour Jan Tour jantor Code. 1012 00:46:03.159 --> 00:46:07.400 Nights, Knights of the Ochoe of Public. 1013 00:46:09.320 --> 00:46:11.639 Yeah, okay, yeah, I love saying code. 1014 00:46:11.920 --> 00:46:13.599 But it's good. It's a good, very good. 1015 00:46:13.960 --> 00:46:17.000 Yeah. Although I think a few episodes ago we changed 1016 00:46:17.000 --> 00:46:19.360 it to no. Yes, I was not. 1017 00:46:19.639 --> 00:46:21.039 I was not okay with that. 1018 00:46:21.639 --> 00:46:24.880 The majority, you know, well, sorry, here that's how it goes. 1019 00:46:24.920 --> 00:46:27.320 But a couple other things that I did not put 1020 00:46:27.320 --> 00:46:29.639 his headlines here. The Analog three D has been delayed. 1021 00:46:29.639 --> 00:46:32.559 I've been told repeatedly, well, I guess it's coming out 1022 00:46:32.599 --> 00:46:34.880 in July. Now. I have not actually like tracked down 1023 00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:37.400 the announcement here, Dan, what did it say? 1024 00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:39.119 I just saw people in the chat saying it. 1025 00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:40.519 That's what all else? 1026 00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:42.119 Am I going to play Nintendo sixty four games? 1027 00:46:42.199 --> 00:46:43.679 I know, right, it's impossible. 1028 00:46:43.800 --> 00:46:46.199 I don't have forty devices in this house that I'm 1029 00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:48.880 including numerous Nintendo sixty fours. 1030 00:46:49.079 --> 00:46:52.599 Uh? Dan, say, did your four K CE arrive from retro? 1031 00:46:53.159 --> 00:46:55.199 I've been watching. I've got a tap open with the 1032 00:46:55.199 --> 00:46:58.199 fucking tracking and it's in here. Did you get proved 1033 00:46:58.239 --> 00:46:58.840 through customs? 1034 00:46:58.840 --> 00:46:59.039 And now? 1035 00:46:59.039 --> 00:47:02.000 Which is a labels rated and it's it's. 1036 00:47:01.880 --> 00:47:04.639 In this country. Yes, it's yes, that's all DHL has it. 1037 00:47:04.679 --> 00:47:06.599 So I'm like, I think DHL is pretty quick. I'm 1038 00:47:06.599 --> 00:47:08.800 expecting to get it soon. But I broke down and 1039 00:47:08.840 --> 00:47:11.079 got this thing. I was like talking myself out of 1040 00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:13.639 it all day when they went up for sale, and 1041 00:47:13.679 --> 00:47:15.519 then I think Sean was like, did you get one? 1042 00:47:15.559 --> 00:47:17.280 I'm like no, And then as soon as I said 1043 00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:18.760 I wrote no, I think I went and bought it. 1044 00:47:19.239 --> 00:47:19.440 Yeah. 1045 00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:23.599 They're strong men with good self control. Yeah. 1046 00:47:23.639 --> 00:47:28.239 The iron Will is how they described me. Yeah, it's okay. 1047 00:47:28.280 --> 00:47:30.039 This the the Analog three D is in the TENO 1048 00:47:30.119 --> 00:47:32.679 sixty four using the FPGA stuff that they do. Uh. 1049 00:47:32.760 --> 00:47:36.199 And it's supposed to come out early this year. Now 1050 00:47:36.239 --> 00:47:39.000 it's coming out in July and it still says out 1051 00:47:39.039 --> 00:47:40.239 of stock. So if you want to buy one and 1052 00:47:40.280 --> 00:47:41.960 you were like hoping the first run would come out 1053 00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:43.599 so you can get into that second wave, well that's 1054 00:47:43.599 --> 00:47:46.559 probably gonna be much later as well. I wonder if 1055 00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:49.000 they're like gonna get hit with tariffs if they keep 1056 00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:49.920 delaying this thing. 1057 00:47:49.840 --> 00:47:51.360 That would be well, they can't have charge this at 1058 00:47:51.400 --> 00:47:52.000 this point, can. 1059 00:47:51.880 --> 00:47:53.559 They can't charge? Yeah? They can't charge it's more. No, 1060 00:47:53.719 --> 00:47:56.280 that's right now, but they could charge even more to 1061 00:47:56.360 --> 00:47:58.639 that second round of people to like get it back 1062 00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:00.360 on the back end, so they all have to pay 1063 00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:04.159 our taxes for oh jeez. And then the other thing here. 1064 00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:07.760 Warrior sixty four posted that Kroc Legends of are you? 1065 00:48:08.039 --> 00:48:10.800 I thought we were doing such a good chack chack 1066 00:48:10.880 --> 00:48:11.679 cat bussing this one. 1067 00:48:11.719 --> 00:48:13.760 I want to be like, stop telling us about Kroc. 1068 00:48:13.880 --> 00:48:16.199 We're not talking about Kroc on this show.

Ooh dogs video games. 1132 00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:39.079 It's almost like we strategically planned doing the game segment 1133 00:51:39.239 --> 00:51:44.800 second to meet an embargo on time. Specifically, Assassin's Creed 1134 00:51:44.880 --> 00:51:45.960 Shadows is now out. 1135 00:51:46.519 --> 00:51:50.079 Yes, I have been playing this quite. 1136 00:51:49.920 --> 00:51:52.320 A bit, And okay, Dan, we don't. You don't have 1137 00:51:52.320 --> 00:51:54.760 to immediately jump into hit. We know you hate Assassin's Creed. 1138 00:51:55.119 --> 00:51:57.440 Say that you just said that you you never liked 1139 00:51:57.440 --> 00:52:00.360 an Assassin's Crew. I listened to you, like to you 1140 00:52:00.440 --> 00:52:00.880 like two right? 1141 00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:03.719 Two was fine? I played it. It's the only one 1142 00:52:03.760 --> 00:52:06.159 I beat. I feel like I've started almost all of 1143 00:52:06.199 --> 00:52:09.400 them and immediately gotten bored. This one I expected to 1144 00:52:09.400 --> 00:52:11.280 be the same. But here's the thing, Like the last few, 1145 00:52:11.760 --> 00:52:14.199 I just didn't even really try because it's like, first 1146 00:52:14.199 --> 00:52:16.239 of all, I've always thought just the story and the 1147 00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:18.840 setting were boring, and especially the last one, it's just 1148 00:52:18.840 --> 00:52:22.199 like that's like or Viking and grease stuff or whatever 1149 00:52:22.320 --> 00:52:25.639 just looked especially boring, even for Assassin's Creed and then 1150 00:52:25.639 --> 00:52:27.320 this one. I think it was the setting was kind 1151 00:52:27.320 --> 00:52:29.039 of like, Okay, I haven't really played one of these 1152 00:52:29.039 --> 00:52:31.679 in a while, and a lot of the complaints I had, 1153 00:52:32.039 --> 00:52:34.119 not all of them, but a lot of complaints I 1154 00:52:34.119 --> 00:52:37.320 had about the series are you know, mine were based 1155 00:52:37.360 --> 00:52:40.400 on the old old games and now it's moving around 1156 00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:42.719 the climbing and all this stuff. Like the control scheme 1157 00:52:42.880 --> 00:52:44.559 is a lot better now, and I'm sure that's something 1158 00:52:44.599 --> 00:52:47.360 that's like gotten better over the last few games. The 1159 00:52:47.400 --> 00:52:51.880 setting's cool. The two protagonist things I haven't really run 1160 00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:54.639 into yet because I've just been the woman so far, 1161 00:52:55.000 --> 00:52:58.440 and she's great, Like she's just like really just snappy, 1162 00:52:58.480 --> 00:53:00.320 Like there's something about just like that kind of like 1163 00:53:01.239 --> 00:53:03.320 almost like Ninja style running around like this is like 1164 00:53:03.360 --> 00:53:04.719 what I wanted you to feel. 1165 00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:07.360 Like it'ses where I keep going back to with her 1166 00:53:07.400 --> 00:53:10.400 and with a now a she's very much Tenshue coated. 1167 00:53:10.800 --> 00:53:11.480 Hell yeah. 1168 00:53:11.519 --> 00:53:14.000 And also, you know I always hated in the old 1169 00:53:14.039 --> 00:53:17.000 Assassin's Creeds where it's like, Okay, there's a stealth mission 1170 00:53:17.280 --> 00:53:19.679 and install fail if you get caught and stuff like that, 1171 00:53:19.960 --> 00:53:21.960 or you know, it's just like this one. You can 1172 00:53:22.000 --> 00:53:23.679 definitely do stealth, and I have done a lot, and 1173 00:53:23.679 --> 00:53:25.400 it's fun. It's hell to jump off roofs and stab 1174 00:53:25.440 --> 00:53:27.639 guys and stuff like that, but there's not a lot 1175 00:53:27.679 --> 00:53:30.320 of like, oh I got caught, everything's fucked. I mean, 1176 00:53:30.320 --> 00:53:32.760 you can just fight your way out of everything. And 1177 00:53:33.400 --> 00:53:35.719 because I do like the combat in this, you can 1178 00:53:35.920 --> 00:53:37.320 change I know it's not the first game to do this, 1179 00:53:37.360 --> 00:53:39.800 but you can change the combat options and the stealth options, 1180 00:53:39.800 --> 00:53:43.000 so you can basically just dumb down the guards and 1181 00:53:43.079 --> 00:53:44.960 just make it so they're like slower to react to 1182 00:53:45.079 --> 00:53:47.920 things and everything. So it's like I kind of can 1183 00:53:47.960 --> 00:53:49.719 feel like I'm having more fun with the stealth because 1184 00:53:49.719 --> 00:53:55.000 it's not so strict with it. Yeah, it's uh, it's 1185 00:53:55.000 --> 00:53:56.559 got that whole hideout thing grub. I don't know if 1186 00:53:56.559 --> 00:53:58.039 you've gotten to that yet or you're kind of like 1187 00:53:58.079 --> 00:54:00.440 building out your hideout and like kind of your stuff. 1188 00:54:00.440 --> 00:54:02.000 They've just they've done it before. But it's like it 1189 00:54:02.039 --> 00:54:04.079 really works because the Japanese setting, I think. 1190 00:54:04.559 --> 00:54:05.079 Yeah, yeah. 1191 00:54:05.119 --> 00:54:06.559 I mean, if there's a complaint I have that I've 1192 00:54:06.559 --> 00:54:08.480 always had by the series is I've always just found 1193 00:54:08.519 --> 00:54:11.280 it dry and boring in terms of like not having 1194 00:54:11.320 --> 00:54:13.239 much of a personality, and like, I know they were 1195 00:54:13.239 --> 00:54:14.840 always trying that old stuff at the Animus and all 1196 00:54:14.840 --> 00:54:17.320 that shit. I always thought that was just convoluted and boring, 1197 00:54:17.679 --> 00:54:20.800 and now it's just like, yeah, the cut scenes are 1198 00:54:20.800 --> 00:54:22.639 just kind of like I don't give a shit about 1199 00:54:22.639 --> 00:54:27.280 the story at all. They do some like interesting things 1200 00:54:27.280 --> 00:54:29.199 that aren't just like traditional combat things where it's like, oh, 1201 00:54:29.239 --> 00:54:31.239 you have to go to this like tea ceremony and 1202 00:54:31.280 --> 00:54:33.800 you got to like, you know, get a costume that'll 1203 00:54:33.800 --> 00:54:35.039 fit in with and you've got to learn the different 1204 00:54:35.079 --> 00:54:37.760 rituals like how to rotate your cup during the tea thing. 1205 00:54:37.800 --> 00:54:40.760 And it actually has implementations during the scenes and stuff. 1206 00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:43.079 So I haven't been like skipping all the cut scenes 1207 00:54:43.119 --> 00:54:45.760 or anything, but like I mainly like running around stabbing 1208 00:54:45.800 --> 00:54:48.840 people and jumping off buildings and climbing buildings and so 1209 00:54:48.920 --> 00:54:51.440 it's good, and it's like I've been doing it as 1210 00:54:51.440 --> 00:54:54.000 a podcast game because again, the story is very boring, 1211 00:54:54.159 --> 00:54:56.960 so I have not minded at all just running around 1212 00:54:57.280 --> 00:54:58.599 finding stuff and killing dudes. 1213 00:54:59.159 --> 00:55:01.320 So my and I think I'm in a similar about 1214 00:55:01.320 --> 00:55:02.840 you in in terms of how I feel about the 1215 00:55:02.840 --> 00:55:06.320 presentation and the story. I think there's a there's just 1216 00:55:06.360 --> 00:55:09.159 kind of a gap between this game and some other 1217 00:55:09.199 --> 00:55:12.199 open world games. This one clearly is inspired by mostly 1218 00:55:12.239 --> 00:55:14.599 Breath of the Wild and a few a few others, 1219 00:55:14.760 --> 00:55:19.800 but you know, ghost of what's the not Sushima, thank you? Uh? 1220 00:55:20.199 --> 00:55:24.039 And Ghost of Sushima is is very close because yeah, 1221 00:55:24.039 --> 00:55:26.840 there's a similar setting. Of course, ghost Sushima I think 1222 00:55:26.840 --> 00:55:29.519 does a little bit better of just looking beautiful at 1223 00:55:29.559 --> 00:55:32.159 all times, and this one looks very video gaming, which 1224 00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:35.000 I'm okay with, Like it's not like a huge negative, 1225 00:55:35.239 --> 00:55:38.440 but it's like it's just not as etheroroughly beautiful as 1226 00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:41.280 a Ghost was. And then same with Breath the Wild. 1227 00:55:41.280 --> 00:55:42.559 Breath the Wild is a real good job of like 1228 00:55:42.599 --> 00:55:44.400 if you kind of get into a flow state with 1229 00:55:44.440 --> 00:55:47.000 that game and you're just kind of walking around exploring 1230 00:55:47.000 --> 00:55:49.559 at your own pace, it could just wash over you 1231 00:55:49.599 --> 00:55:52.559 with its its presentational beauty. Breath of the Wild this 1232 00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:55.880 game doesn't quite get there. So and the story, as 1233 00:55:55.960 --> 00:55:58.480 Dan said, you know, the game does a lot of 1234 00:55:58.760 --> 00:56:01.679 now a upfront where I've not gone back to play 1235 00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:05.519 the Samurai since the very beginning introduction of him Yas 1236 00:56:05.800 --> 00:56:08.480 I think is his name. Yeah, So okay, so how 1237 00:56:08.519 --> 00:56:12.199 many because I'm like five six hours and I and 1238 00:56:12.239 --> 00:56:14.039 I think that was a deliberate choice to be like, 1239 00:56:14.719 --> 00:56:16.320 we're going to force you to play as you want 1240 00:56:16.360 --> 00:56:18.639 the Japanese character. Here's the Japanese character. Go ahead and complaining, 1241 00:56:18.639 --> 00:56:20.280 because if you can start complaining, it's a one. But whatever, 1242 00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:22.679 we don't have to worry about those chuds it. I 1243 00:56:22.800 --> 00:56:26.920 started playing this game as a the tourism simulator, the 1244 00:56:26.920 --> 00:56:28.840 thing that they've been doing the last couple of games. 1245 00:56:29.639 --> 00:56:31.400 You could walk around the world and there will be 1246 00:56:31.440 --> 00:56:34.199 these animous sort of shiny, shimmery objects that if you 1247 00:56:34.280 --> 00:56:36.760 focus on by holding down the left trigger, it'll be Okay, 1248 00:56:36.800 --> 00:56:38.559 We've add a new thing to your codex. And I'm like, 1249 00:56:38.599 --> 00:56:41.679 well cool, I'm never going to read that, but one time, like, 1250 00:56:41.719 --> 00:56:44.800 you know what, I'm in this neat like shrine, let's 1251 00:56:44.800 --> 00:56:46.360 see what it has to say. I opened it up. 1252 00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:48.320 It gave me the history of the shrine, of how 1253 00:56:48.360 --> 00:56:51.440 people would go up to this this you know, this temple, 1254 00:56:51.719 --> 00:56:53.960 and they would do this exact thing about Okay, they 1255 00:56:53.960 --> 00:56:55.840 would bow once and then they would walk a little 1256 00:56:55.840 --> 00:56:57.920 bit closer than they bow twice even deeper. They would 1257 00:56:57.960 --> 00:56:59.400 do two claps. They get down on the ground and 1258 00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:02.280 they're described this thing, and as they're describing, like, Okay, 1259 00:57:02.280 --> 00:57:05.280 that's that's pretty pretty interesting. I unpause, and then the 1260 00:57:05.360 --> 00:57:07.519 characters start talking about, Oh, these people are here and 1261 00:57:07.519 --> 00:57:10.079 they're so disrespectful. They go up there, they don't even bow, 1262 00:57:10.119 --> 00:57:12.159 they walk on the cinder path like their gods. And I'm like, oh, 1263 00:57:12.199 --> 00:57:14.719 I understand that now because I just read about it, 1264 00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:16.920 and it may be like get into this loop of 1265 00:57:17.119 --> 00:57:18.920 I want to learn more about this world because they've 1266 00:57:18.920 --> 00:57:22.280 clearly just recreated a bunch of things in Japan, the 1267 00:57:22.400 --> 00:57:26.320 historical settings, and I got like off of the story beat. 1268 00:57:26.360 --> 00:57:27.599 I was for a while there. I was just going 1269 00:57:27.639 --> 00:57:30.280 from one point White waypoint to the next doing fun stuff. 1270 00:57:30.280 --> 00:57:33.039 The stealth gameplay is fun when you, like Dan said, 1271 00:57:33.039 --> 00:57:35.239 when you get into a combat after the stealth fails, 1272 00:57:35.519 --> 00:57:38.000 that is also fun and cool. You feel like a badass. 1273 00:57:38.360 --> 00:57:40.440 But once I kind of like decide I'm going to 1274 00:57:40.840 --> 00:57:43.360 have my own fun over here, the game was like 1275 00:57:43.400 --> 00:57:46.119 ready to catch me with something interesting to do. I'm like, oh, 1276 00:57:46.159 --> 00:57:48.239 I really appreciate this, And now I'm like exploring at 1277 00:57:48.239 --> 00:57:50.960 my own pace and moving around. And again it's not 1278 00:57:51.159 --> 00:57:53.519 as like, oh, you're gonna look at the screen and 1279 00:57:53.559 --> 00:57:55.920 just be transported to this other world the way Ghost 1280 00:57:56.000 --> 00:57:58.760 and Breath of the Wild does, but the game differently 1281 00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:02.079 still has its aspect of kind of capturing my interest. 1282 00:58:02.480 --> 00:58:05.239 One other quick thing it does the memory thing from 1283 00:58:05.280 --> 00:58:07.920 a Tiers of the Kingdom. There's like little oh, there's 1284 00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:09.599 like little pads you go to where it's like and 1285 00:58:09.719 --> 00:58:11.960 now he's going to have her flashbacks and stuff like that, 1286 00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:14.199 and it's like, Okay, someone clearly was like, well, can 1287 00:58:14.239 --> 00:58:17.239 we take from Tiers of the Kingdom anything? And it's like, yeah, 1288 00:58:17.239 --> 00:58:19.199 you can take that. You're not quite hitting quite as 1289 00:58:19.239 --> 00:58:21.599 hard as that did, but all right, I appreciate you trying. 1290 00:58:22.079 --> 00:58:23.639 A thing that really got me the other day I 1291 00:58:23.679 --> 00:58:25.360 was playing was that, like I was just kind of 1292 00:58:25.360 --> 00:58:27.599 like going off the beaten path messing around, and I saw, 1293 00:58:27.679 --> 00:58:29.000 like there were some dudes fighting and it's like, I 1294 00:58:29.039 --> 00:58:30.199 don't know what's going on over here, but I'm just 1295 00:58:30.239 --> 00:58:32.119 to see who my camera locks onto and kill them. 1296 00:58:32.679 --> 00:58:35.599 I did, and then I killed one and it did 1297 00:58:35.639 --> 00:58:37.960 the like dramatic like does this like effect on the 1298 00:58:38.000 --> 00:58:39.960 screen and stuff, And it took me to my like, 1299 00:58:40.480 --> 00:58:42.519 there is a thing if you go into the objectives 1300 00:58:42.519 --> 00:58:44.239 where it's like there's basically a group of people that 1301 00:58:44.280 --> 00:58:45.920 you need to kill everyone in a circle. 1302 00:58:46.199 --> 00:58:49.480 Yeah, very Quentin Tarantino, you know, very yeah, kill Bill 1303 00:58:49.559 --> 00:58:52.239 style and grindhouse sort of thing. Yeah yeah, and. 1304 00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:53.880 It like crossed out and I was like, what the 1305 00:58:53.880 --> 00:58:55.960 fuck like that, I wasn't on a mission. I literally 1306 00:58:56.000 --> 00:58:58.360 just stumbled into a guy that I didn't even realize 1307 00:58:58.400 --> 00:59:00.239 who he was. And he was one of the like, 1308 00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:02.480 you know, they're like fifteen to twenty of these people 1309 00:59:02.519 --> 00:59:04.920 you're supposed to kill as a main objective. And it 1310 00:59:04.920 --> 00:59:07.920 reminded me of like mercenaries. Remember the mercenaries the Deck 1311 00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:09.719 of fifty two. Yeah, and you'd just be like on 1312 00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:11.239 the mountain somewhere and you kill a dude. It's like, 1313 00:59:11.239 --> 00:59:13.119 oh shit, that was the Jack of Hearts or something 1314 00:59:13.480 --> 00:59:14.760 that made me think of that, and I was like, 1315 00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:16.840 oh shit, okay, that's cool. I didn't realize these dudes 1316 00:59:16.880 --> 00:59:18.920 would just be around the world and like, I didn't 1317 00:59:18.920 --> 00:59:20.920 know a story would take me there at some point. 1318 00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:22.519 But I just killed this dude. I was like, oh shit, 1319 00:59:22.800 --> 00:59:24.480 objective complete, dude's dead, you know. 1320 00:59:24.800 --> 00:59:25.639 And that's really cool. 1321 00:59:25.840 --> 00:59:27.679 I'm hearing some really good things because I did not 1322 00:59:28.440 --> 00:59:31.440 click with Odyssey at all. 1323 00:59:31.840 --> 00:59:33.280 ADUs is the one that did click with me. I 1324 00:59:33.280 --> 00:59:36.000 did not click with Valhalla or Origins. Odist is the 1325 00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:36.920 one I played quite a bit. 1326 00:59:36.840 --> 00:59:39.840 Of people just people kind of forgotten that Mirage happened. Uh, 1327 00:59:40.760 --> 00:59:42.159 you know, this is is a. 1328 00:59:42.119 --> 00:59:44.760 Side thing, right, Mirage goes back to the original Assassin's 1329 00:59:44.760 --> 00:59:47.599 Creed style of doing things, Like I did play some miarage, 1330 00:59:47.599 --> 00:59:49.880 but this is in line with those other three games 1331 00:59:49.880 --> 00:59:53.159 that would Is it as RPG as those ones? You're 1332 00:59:53.159 --> 00:59:55.920 a bit hot, Mike, Uh yeah, yeah, it's uh it 1333 00:59:56.039 --> 01:00:00.360 is very RPGE. Yes, but it's not at am I Dan. 1334 01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:02.760 I don't think there's colored loot, like there's definitely like 1335 01:00:02.880 --> 01:00:06.360 late like yeah there is, Okay, okay, there is sorry, yes, yeah, 1336 01:00:06.400 --> 01:00:08.199 well then yeah, so very RPGE. 1337 01:00:08.960 --> 01:00:10.760 Yeah, and it has a lot of different loot and 1338 01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:12.280 I think it all looks pretty cool. So like when 1339 01:00:12.280 --> 01:00:13.960 you get something new, it's not just the stat boost 1340 01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:17.440 and everything, like it reflects on your character. One thing 1341 01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:19.840 I would suggest if you're playing it is I didn't 1342 01:00:19.880 --> 01:00:22.719 love the English voice acting. They have a mode called 1343 01:00:22.760 --> 01:00:23.639 Immersive Mode. 1344 01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:24.800 That's what I've been playing as. 1345 01:00:24.920 --> 01:00:27.079 Yeah, it's a mix of like Portuguese and Japanese and 1346 01:00:27.119 --> 01:00:28.960 so it's just like, you know whatever they would have 1347 01:00:29.000 --> 01:00:31.800 been speaking in those areas. Now, I found that to 1348 01:00:31.840 --> 01:00:35.000 be a lot more immerciful than yeah, English. 1349 01:00:35.320 --> 01:00:37.920 That's how I've been playing. It works really well. I 1350 01:00:37.960 --> 01:00:40.360 will you brought the Portuguese. That just reminds me like 1351 01:00:40.480 --> 01:00:43.760 Shogun deals with similar things that the FX show and 1352 01:00:43.800 --> 01:00:46.880 that's like, you can't compare this game to like something 1353 01:00:46.920 --> 01:00:49.239 like Shogun, where it's like, oh, this is a let's 1354 01:00:49.280 --> 01:00:53.239 take this familiar setting of people in Japan and kind 1355 01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:55.840 of do something more with it. I mean Shogun, the 1356 01:00:56.119 --> 01:00:58.480 book is quite old, and there was previous shows or whatever, 1357 01:00:58.559 --> 01:01:00.840 but it just like does a really job of exploring 1358 01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:03.039 topics of Japanese culture in a way that we don't 1359 01:01:03.079 --> 01:01:06.199 typically see in Western representations of it. And this game 1360 01:01:06.280 --> 01:01:08.199 is very much like now a story is just a 1361 01:01:08.239 --> 01:01:11.920 revenge story at least so far. Maybe that changes a 1362 01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:14.679 little bit, but it's so far it's just been all revenge, 1363 01:01:14.760 --> 01:01:15.840 revenge story, and it's just. 1364 01:01:15.760 --> 01:01:19.960 Not much to that happen anymore. Yeah, please please do 1365 01:01:20.039 --> 01:01:21.079 something more interesting, and. 1366 01:01:23.280 --> 01:01:30.679 Yes, just do those That's what movies and games are. 1367 01:01:31.239 --> 01:01:34.639 Im like, an exploration of like the Japanese political system 1368 01:01:34.800 --> 01:01:37.239 and things like that that does happen on Showgain that 1369 01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:38.719 would be way more interesting to me. 1370 01:01:38.880 --> 01:01:40.480 Oh no, just give me kill Bill every time. 1371 01:01:40.480 --> 01:01:40.840 It's fine. 1372 01:01:41.159 --> 01:01:45.079 Give me Zillah so bad because I hate kill Bill. 1373 01:01:46.599 --> 01:01:50.719 Yeah, terrible. The Rogues gallery that you're described in those 1374 01:01:50.760 --> 01:01:53.599 like those the badass bosses and stuff like that, that 1375 01:01:53.800 --> 01:01:56.760 is pretty good. Like them, get like here's a bunch 1376 01:01:56.800 --> 01:01:58.840 of like very strong characters that you're going to get 1377 01:01:58.840 --> 01:02:00.800 to kill later in this game. I'm like, okay, that 1378 01:02:00.920 --> 01:02:02.840 is a pretty good motivator for me as someone playing 1379 01:02:02.880 --> 01:02:03.480 this video game. 1380 01:02:03.679 --> 01:02:06.840 Yeah, middle Gear Solids Starts, Vulcan Raven Giants and Shame 1381 01:02:06.880 --> 01:02:08.840 and Psycho Manas I'm gonna kill all you motherfuckers. 1382 01:02:08.960 --> 01:02:10.920 Yeah, I basically have all of those in here. Yeah. 1383 01:02:11.000 --> 01:02:13.760 Yeah, No, I've really liked it, although I don't have 1384 01:02:13.800 --> 01:02:15.880 any illusions about like, look, this is the thing I'm 1385 01:02:15.880 --> 01:02:18.360 playing right now, and I'm sure something's gonna come out 1386 01:02:18.360 --> 01:02:20.000 in a week or two and that's gonna take all 1387 01:02:20.000 --> 01:02:21.840 my Actually, I am already playing something that's got my 1388 01:02:21.840 --> 01:02:26.079 attention more than Asasses, and but I it's all to 1389 01:02:26.119 --> 01:02:28.039 say I I have liked this. I've enjoyed this. I 1390 01:02:28.239 --> 01:02:30.679 it's the most time I put into Assassin's Creed since too, 1391 01:02:31.719 --> 01:02:33.599 So yeah, I'll probably keep messing around with them. 1392 01:02:34.000 --> 01:02:36.039 Yep. I'm I'm gonna keep playing for it for a 1393 01:02:36.079 --> 01:02:38.679 while now as well. I've been streaming it to the 1394 01:02:38.679 --> 01:02:40.800 steam Deck. That's been working. They say it's going to 1395 01:02:40.840 --> 01:02:43.239 be steam Deck verified, but we'll see. 1396 01:02:43.320 --> 01:02:46.920 The US have Connect plus stuff is fantastic with this, yes, 1397 01:02:47.519 --> 01:02:49.920 because yeah, sometimes I play in here on the computer 1398 01:02:50.000 --> 01:02:51.159 and you know that runs it and it looks a 1399 01:02:51.199 --> 01:02:52.880 little better. But then if I go one hundred inch, 1400 01:02:52.920 --> 01:02:54.639 I just have the PlayStation there and it's been working 1401 01:02:54.639 --> 01:02:57.079 great there too, So yeah, seamless with that. 1402 01:02:57.360 --> 01:02:59.280 Yeah, I jump from one PC to the other to 1403 01:02:59.320 --> 01:03:01.320 be able to play on this this TV. And it's like, 1404 01:03:01.360 --> 01:03:03.519 you know, it gives you your latest save, right, It 1405 01:03:03.519 --> 01:03:05.079 doesn't give you like if you have like ten saves, 1406 01:03:05.119 --> 01:03:06.320 it doesn't do all those, but it gives you your 1407 01:03:06.360 --> 01:03:08.239 latest one, which is all you want. So I just 1408 01:03:08.280 --> 01:03:10.119 loaded that up and I hopped right in. You're right, 1409 01:03:10.159 --> 01:03:12.559 completely painless. It's like, man, Ubi stuff did a lot 1410 01:03:12.559 --> 01:03:14.239 of work on Ubi soft Connect, this thing that no 1411 01:03:14.239 --> 01:03:16.280 one ever wants to use except for when it's handy 1412 01:03:16.320 --> 01:03:17.280 for these cloud saves. 1413 01:03:17.480 --> 01:03:19.239 Yeah, I remember Prince Persia worked great. I went back 1414 01:03:19.239 --> 01:03:21.239 and forth all the time, like, yeah, it's great. Also, 1415 01:03:21.320 --> 01:03:23.199 cutting bamboo in this game is awesome, and there's like 1416 01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:25.679 big defences and if you roll into it, they all 1417 01:03:25.719 --> 01:03:28.199 fall down. The physics are really good on watching bamboo 1418 01:03:28.199 --> 01:03:29.440 fall down. I'm into that. 1419 01:03:29.920 --> 01:03:31.960 Yeah, it's not you know, it's not like maybe ubi 1420 01:03:31.960 --> 01:03:34.639 Soft's like most interactive game like a far Cry too, 1421 01:03:35.320 --> 01:03:38.719 but it is definitely like much more alive in terms 1422 01:03:38.719 --> 01:03:41.199 of its physical interactions than a lot of recent Assassin's 1423 01:03:41.199 --> 01:03:43.519 creating Ubisoft games, which I'm like, okay, yeah, can we 1424 01:03:43.599 --> 01:03:45.760 veer back in that direction? That would be great? Yeah, 1425 01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:47.960 good for you be Soft. 1426 01:03:48.559 --> 01:03:51.000 Yeah, like they desperately needed this. 1427 01:03:52.239 --> 01:03:55.360 See, I mean it's what the mediccork. If you care 1428 01:03:55.360 --> 01:03:57.360 about such things, an open curs like at eighty two 1429 01:03:57.400 --> 01:03:59.559 and eighty one's that's pretty good. 1430 01:03:59.559 --> 01:04:02.719 Actually, I guess I don't know what previous Assassin's creeds 1431 01:04:02.760 --> 01:04:04.679 off the top of my head, but that's. 1432 01:04:04.559 --> 01:04:06.960 Not like you know about how I got an eighty 1433 01:04:07.079 --> 01:04:10.920 so actually yeah, or is eighty one so actually yeah? 1434 01:04:11.679 --> 01:04:14.960 Right, seems that certainly in line. But those other recent 1435 01:04:15.199 --> 01:04:16.280 very very big ones. 1436 01:04:16.599 --> 01:04:22.239 Yep, fantastic. Speaking about other big ones and big releases 1437 01:04:22.280 --> 01:04:25.360 that everyone is so hyped for. I've been playing another 1438 01:04:25.400 --> 01:04:32.360 one of those folks, Nubbies. Number Factory is now number Factory, 1439 01:04:32.599 --> 01:04:35.719 Nubbies Nubbies, what number factory? 1440 01:04:36.079 --> 01:04:37.039 I like her name of this. 1441 01:04:38.760 --> 01:04:42.159 I think the look of this game is incredibly up 1442 01:04:42.360 --> 01:04:51.000 our alley. It is a pegg like all right, So 1443 01:04:51.360 --> 01:04:55.000 how it works is initially your board is filled with 1444 01:04:55.800 --> 01:04:57.719 different little let's just call them pegs. 1445 01:04:57.880 --> 01:04:58.840 Oh, this is nuts. 1446 01:04:58.840 --> 01:05:00.719 This is threes as well. 1447 01:05:01.360 --> 01:05:04.519 Not quite to look at us a lot. It's it's 1448 01:05:04.559 --> 01:05:07.119 really good. It's only four ninety nine on Steam right now. 1449 01:05:07.400 --> 01:05:12.039 It's early like like flash junk, yes, the good way. 1450 01:05:12.159 --> 01:05:16.480 Yeah, very gripping story of if you set a revench story, 1451 01:05:16.639 --> 01:05:22.480 it's not a revenge story. It's sorry man, I'll then 1452 01:05:23.159 --> 01:05:26.199 it's a majora's mask story. But instead of the moon, 1453 01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:30.440 it's the sun. Does it will explode? It does have 1454 01:05:30.440 --> 01:05:34.519 a face? Actually, yes, okay man. So unlike PEG, where 1455 01:05:34.519 --> 01:05:38.800 you're just clearing the board, you have a target number 1456 01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:41.760 and that'll arrange from like all right, you got to 1457 01:05:41.760 --> 01:05:46.440 get up to forty points or five hundred and as 1458 01:05:46.519 --> 01:05:50.119 you hit the pegs, you clear the pegs, and you 1459 01:05:50.320 --> 01:05:53.800 they start with like just the number one on them, 1460 01:05:53.880 --> 01:05:56.800 so if you pass through them, you clear them. And 1461 01:05:56.840 --> 01:06:01.320 as you clear the pegs, more pegs get onto your 1462 01:06:01.480 --> 01:06:07.639 board and they increase exponentially. So if you hit a 1463 01:06:07.679 --> 01:06:09.960 peg that has the number two on it, it takes 1464 01:06:10.000 --> 01:06:13.159 two hits to clear, and then as you are progressing 1465 01:06:13.199 --> 01:06:16.599 through and doing that, more and more the numbers start 1466 01:06:16.679 --> 01:06:21.239 to combine and increase on top of each other. So 1467 01:06:22.000 --> 01:06:28.360 say you clear a specific set of pegs eight or 1468 01:06:28.360 --> 01:06:32.280 so times, it'll eventually add up to sixty four, and 1469 01:06:32.320 --> 01:06:34.760 then it just keeps going up, and then your target 1470 01:06:34.840 --> 01:06:38.960 number also keeps going up, and then you have different 1471 01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:43.719 You have a set amount of lives for Nubby, who 1472 01:06:43.800 --> 01:06:48.639 you are shooting at the board, and in that same 1473 01:06:48.920 --> 01:06:52.400 pegal vein you were just aiming and shooting and you 1474 01:06:52.400 --> 01:06:54.719 were just trying to go for that big, big number. 1475 01:06:55.360 --> 01:06:58.639 In between some of the rounds, it does introduce roguelike 1476 01:06:58.679 --> 01:07:00.480 elements where you get to buy an eye him, get 1477 01:07:00.519 --> 01:07:03.400 to visit a shop, or you have a boss battle 1478 01:07:03.679 --> 01:07:08.039 that affects the pegs and everything. It's a very interesting 1479 01:07:08.119 --> 01:07:11.480 look to the game. Like Mike said, it's like kind 1480 01:07:11.519 --> 01:07:14.679 of hard grunge flash game to it. 1481 01:07:15.440 --> 01:07:18.320 Yeah, speaking of that, Jan Chad did just point out 1482 01:07:18.519 --> 01:07:21.639 check out the website of the developer.

I'm doing this. Yeah, I'm 1518 01:09:23.680 --> 01:09:24.479 getting this right now. 1519 01:09:26.600 --> 01:09:29.039 I have no idea what this is, Michael Minatti, but 1520 01:09:29.159 --> 01:09:32.880 you put onto the list here little Nemo the dream Master. 1521 01:09:35.279 --> 01:09:41.439 Wow you are that's impressive. Little Nemo kicks ass. 1522 01:09:42.479 --> 01:09:46.960 So after the satisfaction of beating Festor's Quest on the 1523 01:09:47.680 --> 01:09:51.159 Bike Club, satisfaction, well, you know, there was a little 1524 01:09:51.159 --> 01:09:53.279 bit of it because it was this game I actually 1525 01:09:53.279 --> 01:09:56.039 had for the NES back then, and you know a 1526 01:09:56.079 --> 01:09:59.039 lot of MYNS games I didn't beat. I was pretty 1527 01:09:59.039 --> 01:10:02.520 young at that point, and yes, games can be usually 1528 01:10:02.520 --> 01:10:05.640 are pretty difficult, but you know I did that. I 1529 01:10:05.680 --> 01:10:07.880 had this NES out and I had a bunch of 1530 01:10:07.960 --> 01:10:10.439 other games that I found from my storage that I 1531 01:10:10.479 --> 01:10:13.039 brought up and I was like, okay, I really liked 1532 01:10:13.279 --> 01:10:16.000 Little Nimo the Dream Messer when I was a kid, 1533 01:10:16.079 --> 01:10:18.439 but never got very far in it. It's difficult. It's 1534 01:10:18.439 --> 01:10:22.039 a capcom game, so you know, it's good. It's based 1535 01:10:22.039 --> 01:10:24.159 off this animated movie that came out around that time, 1536 01:10:24.159 --> 01:10:26.640 which itself is based off of a very old comic 1537 01:10:26.720 --> 01:10:28.880 strip about this kid who goes to sleep and he 1538 01:10:28.920 --> 01:10:32.159 answers this dream world. Yeah, it's just really fun two 1539 01:10:32.199 --> 01:10:34.760 D platformer where there's a bit of a kind of 1540 01:10:35.439 --> 01:10:38.359 Kirby element to it, where you find some enemies, you 1541 01:10:38.399 --> 01:10:40.439 can feed them candy and then you jump on them 1542 01:10:40.520 --> 01:10:42.960 and you start riding them or you turn into them, 1543 01:10:43.439 --> 01:10:44.840 so you see a b and all of a sudden 1544 01:10:44.880 --> 01:10:47.479 you can fly, or there's this kind of chameleon thing 1545 01:10:47.479 --> 01:10:48.399 and you can walk. 1546 01:10:48.279 --> 01:10:49.640 Up walls, that sort of thing. 1547 01:10:50.039 --> 01:10:52.359 So yeah, I just took like three and a half 1548 01:10:52.439 --> 01:10:55.119 hours managed to play through the whole thing. You know, 1549 01:10:55.119 --> 01:10:57.800 it's difficult, but there are continues. The last level is 1550 01:10:57.920 --> 01:11:00.760 very long, and there's multiple bosses. When you die, you 1551 01:11:00.800 --> 01:11:02.760 go back to the beginning. So that one took a 1552 01:11:02.840 --> 01:11:07.520 little bit of doing, but still just really fun good 1553 01:11:07.560 --> 01:11:09.399 boss fights at the thing because like at the very end, 1554 01:11:09.439 --> 01:11:11.920 you finally get a weapon to attack with. Otherwise they're 1555 01:11:11.960 --> 01:11:14.920 mostly avoiding things or maybe some of those animal abilities 1556 01:11:14.960 --> 01:11:16.840 let you attack. Then like towards the very end, you 1557 01:11:16.840 --> 01:11:18.840 finally get this staff that you charge up and it 1558 01:11:18.880 --> 01:11:21.880 only shoots like diagonally, but you know, the bosses are 1559 01:11:21.920 --> 01:11:22.840 kind of set up for that. 1560 01:11:22.960 --> 01:11:23.520 So it's just. 1561 01:11:23.560 --> 01:11:27.920 Really really good encounters, great music of course because it's Capcom. Yeah, 1562 01:11:28.119 --> 01:11:31.319 just felt good beating another one of those childhood NYS games. 1563 01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:32.920 I never got to go all the way if you 1564 01:11:33.039 --> 01:11:35.279 feel like for me, it was always a rent in 1565 01:11:35.399 --> 01:11:38.199 game genie game, you know, yeah, like I really loved it. 1566 01:11:38.239 --> 01:11:39.640 I love the world of writing the little like a 1567 01:11:39.680 --> 01:11:42.840 feeding candy to the dinosaurs or whatever. But way too hard, 1568 01:11:43.239 --> 01:11:43.720 but uh. 1569 01:11:43.720 --> 01:11:46.039 Yeah, I guess, yeah, it's pretty difficult, but it was, 1570 01:11:46.159 --> 01:11:47.800 you know, so it was satisfying to go through it, 1571 01:11:47.800 --> 01:11:50.600 and there was something satisfying about going through it on 1572 01:11:50.680 --> 01:11:53.479 the shoot hardware and not you know, even when I 1573 01:11:53.479 --> 01:11:55.399 plan a rom and I don't use the same states, 1574 01:11:55.439 --> 01:11:59.319 it's always something about the possibility of them somehow taints 1575 01:11:59.399 --> 01:12:02.840 the experience.

Jesus, stop embarrassing yourself. 1631 01:14:32.840 --> 01:14:35.760 Sorry, Dan have a set of devil sticks in his. 1632 01:14:37.439 --> 01:14:40.239 I hope. So maybe it has death sticks. Yeah, no, 1633 01:14:40.640 --> 01:14:41.399 he's shaking his head. 1634 01:14:41.479 --> 01:14:44.279 No, all right, there's a new well, there's a new 1635 01:14:44.279 --> 01:14:45.800 thing that I haven't been able to do because my 1636 01:14:45.840 --> 01:14:51.399 fingers keep breaking. It's the like cut it. It looks 1637 01:14:51.439 --> 01:14:54.560 like a cup and ball, but it's like, yeah, I 1638 01:14:54.560 --> 01:14:55.840 think that's it. I bought one of those like a 1639 01:14:55.920 --> 01:14:57.520 year and a half ago. My fingers have been in 1640 01:14:57.600 --> 01:14:59.479 various sticks are broken since then. 1641 01:15:00.079 --> 01:15:02.119 You don't touch that. You have et tomorrow, all right, 1642 01:15:02.159 --> 01:15:03.319 you keep those fingers safe. 1643 01:15:04.239 --> 01:15:07.560 I'm pretty sure this knuckle is currently broken from when 1644 01:15:07.560 --> 01:15:10.960 I smashed it in a veggie slicer. I think it's 1645 01:15:10.960 --> 01:15:13.720 been broken for months without me attending to it. 1646 01:15:13.880 --> 01:15:19.279 Fantastic, fantastic, uh Dan, Right now, you've also been playing 1647 01:15:19.520 --> 01:15:21.800 Star of Providence and you played this for a little 1648 01:15:21.800 --> 01:15:23.319 bit yesterday on the website a little bit. 1649 01:15:23.319 --> 01:15:24.399 I want to show it off because I think it's 1650 01:15:24.439 --> 01:15:28.199 pretty cool, confusing history to it, because I just started 1651 01:15:28.199 --> 01:15:30.760 hearing about it like now and then you look it 1652 01:15:30.800 --> 01:15:32.479 up and it says twenty seventeen it came out, but no, 1653 01:15:32.560 --> 01:15:35.119 it came out of a game called not Mortimer. What 1654 01:15:35.159 --> 01:15:37.319 do I want to say, Mortimer? What's the game studio 1655 01:15:37.359 --> 01:15:43.000 that just shut down Lionsoth. The's a lot of yeah, 1656 01:15:43.239 --> 01:15:46.960 Monolith Monolith. Yes, it used to be called Monolith, and 1657 01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:50.920 then like Donkey's big Mode publishing thing picked it up 1658 01:15:51.000 --> 01:15:52.920 and is like bringing it switch and like there's updates 1659 01:15:52.960 --> 01:15:55.119 and stuff. So I think he basically revived it and 1660 01:15:55.159 --> 01:15:57.560 the name has changed because of like legal Monolith stuff 1661 01:15:57.600 --> 01:16:01.880 or whatever. But anyway, it's a Rogue Light twin stick 1662 01:16:01.920 --> 01:16:05.079 shooter or Each level of the like Rogue Light that 1663 01:16:05.119 --> 01:16:07.479 you're going through is kind of like a Zelda dungeon 1664 01:16:07.520 --> 01:16:08.920 where it's like you're kind of going around, you have 1665 01:16:08.960 --> 01:16:11.159 to destroy these enemies that will unlock the boss door. 1666 01:16:11.439 --> 01:16:12.760 Going to the bust room, you're you're getting a lot 1667 01:16:12.800 --> 01:16:15.640 of weapons with different alterations and stuff that are called keywords, 1668 01:16:16.119 --> 01:16:19.000 and uh, it's it's pretty simple just looking at it, 1669 01:16:19.039 --> 01:16:20.880 but every room you go into is like a really 1670 01:16:20.920 --> 01:16:24.239 fun little combat encounter. It's all just really good meaty 1671 01:16:24.279 --> 01:16:28.680 shots and everything. It's and it works as a rogue light. It'sn't. 1672 01:16:28.720 --> 01:16:31.159 I've only liked maybe four or five runs in right now, 1673 01:16:31.199 --> 01:16:33.600 so I don't know exactly all the stuff what's unlocking 1674 01:16:33.640 --> 01:16:35.560 outside of just the like you got this gun, you 1675 01:16:35.640 --> 01:16:37.840 got this gun. So as far as persistent stuff, I'm 1676 01:16:37.840 --> 01:16:40.399 not really sure yet. But it just immediately passes that 1677 01:16:40.439 --> 01:16:42.880 test of like, oh this this feels good immediately, like 1678 01:16:42.880 --> 01:16:44.199 like many shoot adventures did to me. 1679 01:16:44.239 --> 01:16:46.359 And it looked impactful, like what everything you were doing 1680 01:16:46.399 --> 01:16:48.279 in that game? Just like, oh that that looks like 1681 01:16:48.319 --> 01:16:51.439 it feels good to play. Which, yep, click me over. 1682 01:16:51.479 --> 01:16:53.039 I'm I'm I have it on the Steam deck now. 1683 01:16:53.119 --> 01:16:54.239 Got to start it probably tonight. 1684 01:16:54.479 --> 01:16:56.399 Yeah, yeah, it's a real solid one. I'll probably play 1685 01:16:56.439 --> 01:16:56.840 more of that. 1686 01:16:58.479 --> 01:17:01.640 Exciting, exciting. I like the look of it. We need 1687 01:17:01.720 --> 01:17:02.960 more schmups. 1688 01:17:03.399 --> 01:17:04.399 I like schups? Yeah? 1689 01:17:04.600 --> 01:17:07.640 Is Itooter come Back should just be a genre that 1690 01:17:07.680 --> 01:17:10.359 everyone has one of. Every company should make a dual 1691 01:17:10.399 --> 01:17:12.199 stick shooter. All right? 1692 01:17:12.279 --> 01:17:15.159 Yea, you you heard Jeff Grubb chet says, what if 1693 01:17:15.159 --> 01:17:17.079 there's a power Block show where Dan went to the doctor, 1694 01:17:17.319 --> 01:17:20.079 can we expense Like I hear about this medical tourism 1695 01:17:20.119 --> 01:17:22.520 stuff and it's like, I love the idea of like, 1696 01:17:22.720 --> 01:17:25.279 just send me to Turkey and then not for the 1697 01:17:25.319 --> 01:17:27.479 hair gimmick, but for like then you just go into 1698 01:17:27.479 --> 01:17:29.119 a building and they just put you in a bunch 1699 01:17:29.159 --> 01:17:31.079 of machines and scanning and everything.

Yeah, but a little nub. 1729 01:18:40.720 --> 01:18:43.720 I feel like I feel myself rapidly aging as we 1730 01:18:43.720 --> 01:18:47.199 were talking about this. Jeff bro Rogue Squadron two Rogue Leader. 1731 01:18:47.640 --> 01:18:49.279 I bought it. I bought a game cube. I've been 1732 01:18:49.319 --> 01:18:51.239 putting off getting all the real hardware stuff for a 1733 01:18:51.319 --> 01:18:53.640 real long time, trying to be like I am happy 1734 01:18:53.640 --> 01:18:55.760 with emulation. I love emulation. I'm not gonna be like 1735 01:18:56.159 --> 01:18:58.159 like the Steam deck. Having just everything on there, playing 1736 01:18:58.199 --> 01:19:01.279 games on there is great. But I did get a 1737 01:19:01.319 --> 01:19:04.680 retro tink four ksesee, and once that kind of clicked over, 1738 01:19:04.720 --> 01:19:06.119 I'm like, I have the N sixty four and a 1739 01:19:06.119 --> 01:19:07.640 handful of other things, like a plug in there, a 1740 01:19:07.680 --> 01:19:10.399 PlayStation one like, but I would probably like to plug 1741 01:19:10.439 --> 01:19:12.680 a GameCube in there. So I just hopped over to 1742 01:19:13.039 --> 01:19:15.039 a local use game store got it for about one 1743 01:19:15.079 --> 01:19:17.600 hundred bucks and picked up a rogue squadron. I did 1744 01:19:17.640 --> 01:19:20.560 also buy the Flippy drive, which should come next month. 1745 01:19:20.560 --> 01:19:22.560 Have you guys seen this then? Is that the thing 1746 01:19:22.600 --> 01:19:24.840 that you're going to remove the optical drive, and so 1747 01:19:24.960 --> 01:19:27.399 this is the one that it basically does that, but 1748 01:19:27.479 --> 01:19:31.159 without removing the optical drive can still It's the Flippy drive. 1749 01:19:31.159 --> 01:19:35.800 It's forty five bucks. It is solderless, so you just 1750 01:19:36.159 --> 01:19:38.319 all you need to install it is a screwdriver and 1751 01:19:38.319 --> 01:19:42.119 then you know the special video games the Gamesman screwdriver 1752 01:19:42.199 --> 01:19:44.880 to get the GameCube open. But you just screw it in. 1753 01:19:44.920 --> 01:19:47.560 You pull like one ribbon, You put the ribbon in there, 1754 01:19:47.560 --> 01:19:50.000 and then the ribbon also kind of has another part 1755 01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:53.520 of it that goes back off to the the optical drive, 1756 01:19:53.880 --> 01:19:55.560 so that you just like hit one button when you 1757 01:19:55.600 --> 01:19:58.039 want to use your disk drive. Still, so I'm going 1758 01:19:58.119 --> 01:20:00.840 to have a fully like kitted out and this thing. 1759 01:20:01.840 --> 01:20:04.039 It has a wireless chip in there so you can 1760 01:20:04.119 --> 01:20:08.239 use Bluetooth controllers. They're constantly updating it. They also did 1761 01:20:08.279 --> 01:20:11.159 a new version of the like, uh, what's the one 1762 01:20:11.199 --> 01:20:13.279 like swan, what's the one that everyone uses like to 1763 01:20:13.319 --> 01:20:15.119 like load your games or some whatever. 1764 01:20:15.359 --> 01:20:17.640 That Oh, oh, Swiss, Yeah, Swiss, Swiss. 1765 01:20:17.720 --> 01:20:19.880 Yeah, they have their like own I don't know if 1766 01:20:19.920 --> 01:20:22.600 it's a FOURK of that. It's an alternative that uses 1767 01:20:22.640 --> 01:20:24.800 all of the assets that were built into the GameCube 1768 01:20:24.840 --> 01:20:27.159 for its menu systems. So it looks like a Nintendo 1769 01:20:27.199 --> 01:20:29.800 built menu system to get to your video games that 1770 01:20:29.840 --> 01:20:32.920 are loaded on an SD card. So I'm like, this 1771 01:20:33.000 --> 01:20:34.880 looks like they really have come a long way with 1772 01:20:34.920 --> 01:20:36.680 this stuff. So I was pretty happy to be, all right, 1773 01:20:36.680 --> 01:20:38.920 I'm getting that, and I will install that on a 1774 01:20:38.960 --> 01:20:40.359 grubs gimmicks and we'll hang out. 1775 01:20:40.560 --> 01:20:43.399 Whoa I need to be on that, just like I 1776 01:20:43.399 --> 01:20:45.159 would buy another game keep and do that, because like 1777 01:20:45.880 --> 01:20:47.399 it's rare that I actually want to use a disc, 1778 01:20:47.439 --> 01:20:50.319 but I would like the ability to exactly Swiss was 1779 01:20:50.319 --> 01:20:51.600 come for some of a way that like I got 1780 01:20:51.600 --> 01:20:53.920 it working, but it's like like a lot of these things, 1781 01:20:53.960 --> 01:20:55.039 you get it working, and then it's like if you 1782 01:20:55.079 --> 01:20:56.680 want to add a game or take something off or something, 1783 01:20:56.720 --> 01:20:58.760 it's like, I'm not going to touch this because everything's 1784 01:20:58.760 --> 01:20:59.520 gonna break if I do that. 1785 01:20:59.560 --> 01:21:01.920 You know, I'm very curious to see how that goes, 1786 01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:04.119 because I mean, I have three game cubes here, I 1787 01:21:04.119 --> 01:21:08.000 should definitely try to install this on one of them. So, yeah, 1788 01:21:08.039 --> 01:21:12.319 I want to see that process, see how that all goes. Yeah, 1789 01:21:12.319 --> 01:21:14.880 there's you know, I've played a bunch of these consoles 1790 01:21:14.880 --> 01:21:18.159 into these retro tinks or whatever else or guns, bespoke 1791 01:21:18.800 --> 01:21:22.239 Hdmi converters for them, But there's still something about the GameCube. 1792 01:21:22.279 --> 01:21:23.000 For some reason. 1793 01:21:23.359 --> 01:21:24.680 I think there was a bit of a reason why 1794 01:21:24.680 --> 01:21:26.239 that became a bit of a black hole for the 1795 01:21:26.239 --> 01:21:26.880 retro market. 1796 01:21:26.960 --> 01:21:29.960 Oh yeah, cub is still very satisfying to play. Yeah, 1797 01:21:29.960 --> 01:21:32.760 I mean, it was just this perfect storm of it 1798 01:21:32.760 --> 01:21:34.840 was Nintendo. Some of the best games from that time 1799 01:21:34.880 --> 01:21:36.720 all happened on that console. So people who do have 1800 01:21:36.720 --> 01:21:38.880 a lot of nostalgia. Everyone at least played Smash Brothers 1801 01:21:38.920 --> 01:21:41.199 at their friend's house, and there was only like twenty 1802 01:21:41.239 --> 01:21:43.800 five million of them, So if you wanted to start collecting, 1803 01:21:43.840 --> 01:21:45.640 you had to get serious because there just wasn't a 1804 01:21:45.720 --> 01:21:48.680 lot of those games out there. So I got one 1805 01:21:48.680 --> 01:21:51.439 game with it, Rogue Squadron two Rogue Leader, and I've 1806 01:21:51.479 --> 01:21:53.760 been playing through that again. That was such a good 1807 01:21:53.840 --> 01:21:55.039 launch game of the game. 1808 01:21:55.560 --> 01:21:58.880 Incredible, Like that looks incredible. That is the trench run 1809 01:21:58.920 --> 01:21:59.600 in it, doesn't It. 1810 01:21:59.479 --> 01:22:01.760 As the trench. It's the and that was like the 1811 01:22:01.800 --> 01:22:03.520 demo that I think you could get for the game 1812 01:22:03.520 --> 01:22:05.159 cube early on if you didn't get the game right away. 1813 01:22:05.199 --> 01:22:07.039 And I played that over and over and over again. 1814 01:22:07.199 --> 01:22:09.039 I think it was the first one where they really 1815 01:22:09.079 --> 01:22:11.439 like went into ILM and got the movie assets that 1816 01:22:11.439 --> 01:22:13.640 they were using for like the special additions. So they 1817 01:22:13.720 --> 01:22:16.800 just had the X wing model from the movie and 1818 01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:19.079 they just reported it into the game. You know, obviously 1819 01:22:19.159 --> 01:22:20.720 had to simplify it a lot, but they just had 1820 01:22:20.720 --> 01:22:24.199 the data to work from. So it just looks astounding 1821 01:22:24.279 --> 01:22:27.760 to this day. A twenty six year old game or 1822 01:22:27.800 --> 01:22:31.119 whatever his twenty five year old game, and it's it's 1823 01:22:31.159 --> 01:22:33.479 still like really fun. It gets kind of punishing occasionally, 1824 01:22:33.560 --> 01:22:35.560 but like you just like look up one trick. It's like, oh, 1825 01:22:35.560 --> 01:22:37.359 don't worry about the tie fighters here, just fly to 1826 01:22:37.399 --> 01:22:39.439 those guns, take those guns out, and you can actually 1827 01:22:39.439 --> 01:22:41.640 beat this level in two and a half minutes. I'm like, oh, okay, 1828 01:22:42.239 --> 01:22:43.800 so I've been doing that and having a good time. 1829 01:22:44.800 --> 01:22:47.199 I just I really like all these Factor five games 1830 01:22:47.760 --> 01:22:49.279 and really happy to kind of be playing this one 1831 01:22:49.279 --> 01:22:51.199 again on shoot hardware because this is one of those 1832 01:22:51.199 --> 01:22:53.720 games doesn't actually still run great on Dolphin you can 1833 01:22:53.760 --> 01:22:57.279 get it, oh running okay, But all Factor five games 1834 01:22:57.520 --> 01:23:00.000 they were like wizards. They always had their own technology, 1835 01:23:00.239 --> 01:23:02.279 like Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine on N sixty 1836 01:23:02.279 --> 01:23:04.720 four is another one that isn't great on emulator things 1837 01:23:04.760 --> 01:23:07.479 like that. So yeah, I'm like, I'm glad to have 1838 01:23:07.640 --> 01:23:10.840 Shoot hardware again, and especially when the retro tink gets here, 1839 01:23:10.880 --> 01:23:12.439 I'm gonna be popping this thing in four K on 1840 01:23:12.479 --> 01:23:13.760 the TV and I cannot wait for that. 1841 01:23:14.199 --> 01:23:17.119 Yeah. This weekend I played a Twist Middle Black to 1842 01:23:17.239 --> 01:23:20.680 Completion on Shoot hardware and it's like that still looks 1843 01:23:20.800 --> 01:23:23.119 really good. That's you know, sixty frames a second feels 1844 01:23:23.159 --> 01:23:26.239 great like that game is. It's similarly punishing but has 1845 01:23:26.279 --> 01:23:30.199 held upgrade. So yeah, yeah, old games, huh yeah, I 1846 01:23:30.239 --> 01:23:31.680 like them quite a bit. Yeah they're good. 1847 01:23:32.199 --> 01:23:32.800 Yeah. 1848 01:23:33.039 --> 01:23:35.760 Gosh, I may or may not have been looking at 1849 01:23:35.840 --> 01:23:40.359 Facebook marketplace postings for a CRT this whole time. And 1850 01:23:40.479 --> 01:23:43.880 let me tell you, maybe it's because of the Bay 1851 01:23:44.000 --> 01:23:46.720 area and then thrifting culture here, but. 1852 01:23:46.760 --> 01:23:49.279 It is obscenely expensive to get a CRT. 1853 01:23:49.439 --> 01:23:51.640 Well, Jan, if you want to drive out to Minnesota, 1854 01:23:51.720 --> 01:23:53.640 I've got the nineteen intes trend front here and I 1855 01:23:53.680 --> 01:23:54.720 don't quite know what to do with that. 1856 01:23:55.680 --> 01:23:58.640 And don't don't search for CRT, search for old TV. 1857 01:23:58.840 --> 01:24:00.600 Yeah yeah, because if somebody says or do they know 1858 01:24:00.640 --> 01:24:01.239 what they're selling? 1859 01:24:01.439 --> 01:24:08.560 Yes, yes, yeah, I've had mostly bad experiences with Facebook Marketplace. 1860 01:24:08.600 --> 01:24:11.680 I have to say I did so much. 1861 01:24:12.239 --> 01:24:15.239 God, I miss the heyday of Craigslist. 1862 01:24:15.319 --> 01:24:18.319 Now I feel like it's it's just like a sketchy thing, 1863 01:24:19.159 --> 01:24:20.840 every single thing of it. I'm just trying to buy 1864 01:24:20.840 --> 01:24:25.159 a tripod or a c stand. Last game for today, folks. 1865 01:24:25.239 --> 01:24:29.039 We play this on upf and boy howdy was it 1866 01:24:29.159 --> 01:24:35.279 a probably one of the funniest streams I've I've witnessed 1867 01:24:35.279 --> 01:24:38.000 from this website in a very long time, and we're 1868 01:24:38.079 --> 01:24:39.039 nothing but funny. 1869 01:24:39.079 --> 01:24:40.439 So this is up there. 1870 01:24:41.159 --> 01:24:44.760 Repo r E p O, Jeff Grubb, Dan Reikert, Uh 1871 01:24:45.119 --> 01:24:48.880 play this along with Turbo Sean, Nikky, Tam and Lucy. 1872 01:24:49.479 --> 01:24:52.239 Yeah. We had a full six member crew go out 1873 01:24:52.319 --> 01:24:55.119 in Repo, which is a lethal company like. It is 1874 01:24:55.479 --> 01:24:59.960 one of these company games where you are sent out 1875 01:25:00.119 --> 01:25:03.560 to collect goods that you return to meet a threshold 1876 01:25:03.560 --> 01:25:05.319 once you have enough money, and then you can return 1877 01:25:05.359 --> 01:25:07.840 to the base, buy some stuff, and go back out. Uh. 1878 01:25:07.920 --> 01:25:10.680 It is a spooky version of one of these. Most 1879 01:25:10.720 --> 01:25:14.279 of them are pretty spooky ones. Got you know a 1880 01:25:14.319 --> 01:25:17.039 lot of different monsters that have their own gimmick. Like 1881 01:25:17.079 --> 01:25:19.880 one was a blind shotgun guy that uses a shotgun 1882 01:25:19.960 --> 01:25:21.960 as a cane and if he hears you or discovers you, 1883 01:25:22.000 --> 01:25:24.880 then he shoots in that direction. So it seemed like 1884 01:25:24.880 --> 01:25:27.520 he was paired up with like a a ghost lady 1885 01:25:27.560 --> 01:25:29.520 that could see you, and then she would like throw 1886 01:25:29.560 --> 01:25:32.479 you across the room like you're being pulled like a 1887 01:25:32.520 --> 01:25:34.520 clay pigeon, and then the shotgun guy, I would bless 1888 01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:37.279 you out of the air. It was. It's neat really though. 1889 01:25:37.319 --> 01:25:39.840 It's just all these emergent moments as we try to 1890 01:25:39.840 --> 01:25:42.479 like figure out, Okay, I'm going to go out here 1891 01:25:42.479 --> 01:25:44.720 with you and we are going to try to get 1892 01:25:44.800 --> 01:25:47.000 enough goods so we can go back to the smasher 1893 01:25:47.399 --> 01:25:50.800 and cash in. At the extraction point, we need a 1894 01:25:50.800 --> 01:25:53.359 couple of things. They're like, we haven't seen anything, so 1895 01:25:53.399 --> 01:25:54.680 let's kind of go a little bit further than we've 1896 01:25:54.720 --> 01:25:57.119 gone than we've gone before. And when we find something, 1897 01:25:57.159 --> 01:26:00.439 you just don't know what's gonna happen. Is it a moth, Reagan? 1898 01:26:00.840 --> 01:26:03.199 Is it like a little is it a doll that 1899 01:26:03.399 --> 01:26:05.359 is going to freak out when you pick it up 1900 01:26:05.399 --> 01:26:07.800 and start attacking you? And if it does, can you 1901 01:26:07.800 --> 01:26:09.479 figure out how to get that maybe into the cart 1902 01:26:09.520 --> 01:26:11.720 that you have with you with your friends, And we 1903 01:26:11.800 --> 01:26:14.199 came up with a plan. Now, in the process of 1904 01:26:14.239 --> 01:26:16.359 putting in the cart, she did get like whacked on 1905 01:26:16.359 --> 01:26:19.439 the ground several times and exploded and wasn't worth anything anymore, 1906 01:26:19.479 --> 01:26:22.399 so she just went away. But then one time I 1907 01:26:22.399 --> 01:26:24.199 picked up a music box. I'm like, okay, this is 1908 01:26:24.239 --> 01:26:25.960 worth like three thousand, this is going to get us 1909 01:26:25.960 --> 01:26:27.720 work good. But as soon as I picked it up, 1910 01:26:27.760 --> 01:26:30.640 it opened up started playing music, which would attract let's say, 1911 01:26:30.680 --> 01:26:33.560 a blind monster with a shotgun. And because it's a 1912 01:26:33.640 --> 01:26:35.640 music box with like a little spinny ballery on a 1913 01:26:35.720 --> 01:26:37.520 ballerina on the top, it made it so I could 1914 01:26:37.560 --> 01:26:41.119 not stop spinning like a crow cura coroa. And so 1915 01:26:41.159 --> 01:26:43.960 I like try to maneuver my way through the doors, 1916 01:26:44.000 --> 01:26:45.600 and I passed it off to Sean as he like 1917 01:26:45.680 --> 01:26:47.880 was going through the door, which actually was pretty slick. 1918 01:26:47.920 --> 01:26:49.880 That worked really well. Then we got to the next 1919 01:26:49.920 --> 01:26:52.960 door and it just kept whacking on the doorframe and 1920 01:26:53.000 --> 01:26:55.800 we couldn't get through, and then finally we did, but 1921 01:26:55.960 --> 01:26:57.720 by that point the monster came and shot me with 1922 01:26:57.760 --> 01:27:01.199 a shotgun. It's just a really good time. I think, 1923 01:27:01.439 --> 01:27:03.239 maybe a really good one of these. 1924 01:27:03.399 --> 01:27:06.319 The thing that killed me immediately was the way the 1925 01:27:06.439 --> 01:27:09.279 characters look. They're just old Terence and Phillips guys with 1926 01:27:09.319 --> 01:27:12.199 like flappy heads and like as you talk, the head 1927 01:27:12.279 --> 01:27:14.359 flaps and like the eyes, like the big googly eyes 1928 01:27:14.359 --> 01:27:15.960 that look at each other, and it adds so much 1929 01:27:16.000 --> 01:27:16.520 to the humor. 1930 01:27:16.640 --> 01:27:17.479 The positional audio. 1931 01:27:17.680 --> 01:27:20.159 Yeah, yeah, Mike, I don't know if you saw what 1932 01:27:20.279 --> 01:27:26.319 I did. I saw you dead that objectively one of Mike. Yeah, 1933 01:27:27.640 --> 01:27:29.239 already quiet and I hit him with a. 1934 01:27:29.560 --> 01:27:32.640 Jack pop and a right forest and. 1935 01:27:32.039 --> 01:27:34.960 My little guys flappy head go with that. Oh my god, 1936 01:27:35.000 --> 01:27:36.199 it's so fucking funny. 1937 01:27:36.439 --> 01:27:40.319 TAM's reactions to it with my favorite part, especially when 1938 01:27:40.359 --> 01:27:43.800 like the flappy head Dan with the mic voice would 1939 01:27:43.800 --> 01:27:45.720 be in one room and then Tam would be in another, 1940 01:27:45.760 --> 01:27:47.479 and so the position audio would just be this muffled 1941 01:27:47.520 --> 01:27:50.279 through the other room, coming through the wall. Shut up. 1942 01:27:50.960 --> 01:27:52.000 It was just very good. 1943 01:27:53.880 --> 01:27:57.319 One of the early moments in that stream is y'all 1944 01:27:57.359 --> 01:28:00.840 figured out you could hide underneath beds, uh huh, And 1945 01:28:00.880 --> 01:28:04.720 then grub you telling Nikki and Sean to hide underneath 1946 01:28:04.760 --> 01:28:07.119 a bed, and both of them just talking to each 1947 01:28:07.119 --> 01:28:09.800 other and looking at you and just like nodding along. 1948 01:28:09.920 --> 01:28:11.760 It's just so good. Yeah, like we were coming up 1949 01:28:11.760 --> 01:28:14.199 with a plan. And again, the positional audio is like 1950 01:28:14.479 --> 01:28:16.239 very good in this game. They do it like a 1951 01:28:16.279 --> 01:28:18.680 lot of great tech with like making the audio bounce 1952 01:28:18.760 --> 01:28:20.880 around the rooms and have like a really feel like 1953 01:28:20.920 --> 01:28:23.159 it's in that place. You know. We get in under 1954 01:28:23.199 --> 01:28:25.720 the bed and we're whispering to each other and I'm like, listen, 1955 01:28:26.279 --> 01:28:28.039 you know, Tam and Lucy, you're kind of running for 1956 01:28:28.079 --> 01:28:32.000 their lives right now. They're probably screwed, so we just 1957 01:28:32.039 --> 01:28:34.039 should just go now and let them deal with the 1958 01:28:34.039 --> 01:28:35.760 monster and then we'll be able to survive. And then 1959 01:28:35.800 --> 01:28:38.279 they were like, Okay, maybe they're dead, So here's the 1960 01:28:38.279 --> 01:28:40.119 new plan. All three of us are gonna have to 1961 01:28:40.119 --> 01:28:42.199 go out there and whoever's the slowest is just gonna die. 1962 01:28:42.239 --> 01:28:45.560 And Nicky's like character making their character nod along to me. 1963 01:28:45.880 --> 01:28:47.720 It was like, like Jane, you said you would watch 1964 01:28:47.880 --> 01:28:50.600 an animated show like this. Yeah, it was cartoonish. It 1965 01:28:50.760 --> 01:28:54.079 was It had the qualities of an animated television show, 1966 01:28:54.159 --> 01:28:57.680 but one that you were performing live. It was really 1967 01:28:57.760 --> 01:28:58.359 well done. 1968 01:28:59.239 --> 01:29:03.119 There was another moment where Nicki popped into a cauldron 1969 01:29:03.840 --> 01:29:07.119 and then the cauldron exploded, shooting Nikki off into the 1970 01:29:07.159 --> 01:29:10.279 sky on the grub. You just found them like laying 1971 01:29:10.319 --> 01:29:13.760 in a corner, just like smiling, giggling. Yes, it's just 1972 01:29:13.800 --> 01:29:14.359 really good. 1973 01:29:14.439 --> 01:29:16.760 And the giggle like we'd also mix the head flaps, 1974 01:29:16.760 --> 01:29:20.199 so you're like like that and like that.

Fine, 2161 01:39:34.439 --> 01:39:37.319 I hazard that ob D was a wrong answer, but now. 2162 01:39:37.479 --> 01:39:42.359 It was technically all right, Dan, you have three options again. 2163 01:39:42.720 --> 01:39:46.560 Two of these characters are in Lord of the Rings options. 2164 01:39:46.640 --> 01:39:53.800 Your options are Samuel Charley, sam Wise Gamgee, oh, Fatty Bulger. 2165 01:39:55.920 --> 01:39:58.159 Okay. I think there's a trick thing going on here 2166 01:39:58.199 --> 01:40:03.279 because Samuel Charlie in Samuel Gange. One of them, sam 2167 01:40:03.359 --> 01:40:06.840 Wise Gamgee, sam Wise Gangie. One of those I think 2168 01:40:06.960 --> 01:40:11.479 is the fat kid from Game of Thrones, and the 2169 01:40:11.560 --> 01:40:16.199 other one is the idiot that was Unlost. Right, I 2170 01:40:16.319 --> 01:40:19.720 can't help you say, Let's say the three again, Samuel Tarley, 2171 01:40:20.359 --> 01:40:24.880 I think sam Wise Gamgee okay, In Fatty Bulger, sam 2172 01:40:24.960 --> 01:40:29.039 Wise Gangie is the annoying guy from Lost and Fatty Bulger. 2173 01:40:29.920 --> 01:40:33.840 That is correct? Incorrect about the annoying guy from Lost? 2174 01:40:34.159 --> 01:40:35.079 Now it's Rudy. 2175 01:40:36.880 --> 01:40:39.159 Oh well, isn't the annoying guy from Lost one of 2176 01:40:39.159 --> 01:40:39.640 the Hobbits? 2177 01:40:40.079 --> 01:40:40.279 Yeah? 2178 01:40:42.479 --> 01:40:45.199 Okay, they all suck, but you know they're all interchangeable anyway. 2179 01:40:45.279 --> 01:40:48.239 I kind of like Bilbo. I thought Fatty Bulger was 2180 01:40:48.279 --> 01:40:50.399 a gangster. I did not know he was a hobbit. 2181 01:40:50.680 --> 01:40:52.479 What if I said what if. 2182 01:40:52.399 --> 01:40:56.520 I said, ghost dog, ghost face kill a fatty bulger. 2183 01:40:57.039 --> 01:41:00.439 Okay, so much. 2184 01:41:00.359 --> 01:41:02.760 Better if it was just about some some dude with 2185 01:41:02.960 --> 01:41:05.560 muscles who had to kill somebody, you. 2186 01:41:05.600 --> 01:41:07.399 Know, you know'd be better if Lord of the Rings 2187 01:41:07.479 --> 01:41:11.840 was just the Wu Tang clan doing because people are 2188 01:41:11.920 --> 01:41:13.880 cruel and I want to get behind man. 2189 01:41:14.680 --> 01:41:18.159 That game number six for Mike Manatti. Two of these 2190 01:41:18.319 --> 01:41:20.680 are members of the Wu Tang clan. One is not 2191 01:41:21.479 --> 01:41:27.880 three options. You have Rizza, Sizza, and Gizza or Jizz. 2192 01:41:28.520 --> 01:41:36.000 There's Gizza, Jizz was named Gizz, Gizz. It's the other two, 2193 01:41:36.159 --> 01:41:36.760 not Jizz. 2194 01:41:38.159 --> 01:41:45.960 Mike Manatti incorrect. Is like a lady singer, right, Yes, 2195 01:41:46.119 --> 01:41:50.279 Sizza is a modern lady singer. Yes, there are both, 2196 01:41:50.319 --> 01:41:52.000 and there is is a film director, Mike. 2197 01:41:52.159 --> 01:41:55.760 Yeah, worked on the soundtrack to one of your favorite movies, Mike, 2198 01:41:56.239 --> 01:41:57.600 Which one is that Kill Bill? 2199 01:42:00.760 --> 01:42:01.439 It's Killed Bill? 2200 01:42:02.760 --> 01:42:05.079 A woman gets killed in it. I mean a lot 2201 01:42:05.199 --> 01:42:07.560 multiple It's not it's nothing. It's I don't it's not 2202 01:42:07.680 --> 01:42:12.920 fairly a movie like that, all right, it's nonsense, just 2203 01:42:13.720 --> 01:42:17.479 as a shoot brother. Yeah, So I think both of 2204 01:42:17.560 --> 01:42:18.920 you are kind of tied right now. 2205 01:42:19.079 --> 01:42:21.760 Actually, yeah, if I i'd be curious if Mike just 2206 01:42:21.880 --> 01:42:24.520 watched like the gravel Pit video. I wonder if, like, 2207 01:42:24.600 --> 01:42:26.000 how could you watch that and not be like, these 2208 01:42:26.039 --> 01:42:27.760 guys seem like they're having fun and that's a cat 2209 01:42:27.880 --> 01:42:28.119 you too. 2210 01:42:28.199 --> 01:42:28.600 I don't think. 2211 01:42:28.600 --> 01:42:30.279 I don't think he's at. 2212 01:42:31.560 --> 01:42:31.720 Them. 2213 01:42:32.319 --> 01:42:35.319 I just have It's not like you where you watch 2214 01:42:35.399 --> 01:42:38.079 one of the reason dismissed it.

Scotty Pippen's cool. What are the first two? 2226 01:43:19.560 --> 01:43:22.159 Sharky Bill, the pony. 2227 01:43:22.600 --> 01:43:24.359 Bill the pony also sounds lame, so I'm gonna go 2228 01:43:24.399 --> 01:43:25.960 with that. Sharky sounds too cool to being Lord of 2229 01:43:25.960 --> 01:43:26.319 the Rings. 2230 01:43:27.079 --> 01:43:30.760 Trick question, Dan, all three of them are lord of 2231 01:43:30.800 --> 01:43:31.079 the Rings? 2232 01:43:31.239 --> 01:43:31.399 Oh? 2233 01:43:31.520 --> 01:43:31.760 Really? 2234 01:43:32.159 --> 01:43:32.479 Okay? 2235 01:43:32.800 --> 01:43:33.159 All right? 2236 01:43:33.560 --> 01:43:35.039 So does he get a point?

Uh, next email, I forgot their 2295 01:46:56.760 --> 01:47:00.479 name here High High Bombers. So if all through a 2296 01:47:00.520 --> 01:47:04.159 friend's porch last week and blew my knee out. Because 2297 01:47:04.199 --> 01:47:06.720 of the way my home is set up, gaming has 2298 01:47:06.880 --> 01:47:10.159 been pretty difficult. So do I buy a PlayStation portal 2299 01:47:10.199 --> 01:47:11.800 a Steam Deck? Do I suck it up and wait 2300 01:47:11.840 --> 01:47:14.000 for the switch too? I have some rch or handhelds, 2301 01:47:14.039 --> 01:47:16.000 but I'm starting to think I'm missing out on the 2302 01:47:16.079 --> 01:47:16.720 modern market. 2303 01:47:17.279 --> 01:47:22.680 Ps. Please check out your flimsy porch boards for me, 2304 01:47:22.800 --> 01:47:25.119 it's like, you know, Steam deck or a sus Roger ally, 2305 01:47:25.800 --> 01:47:28.640 which everyone like, fits better with your library. If you 2306 01:47:28.680 --> 01:47:30.840 have a lot of like game pass games and stuff 2307 01:47:30.880 --> 01:47:32.720 like that, you want to do that than the Roger 2308 01:47:32.760 --> 01:47:35.199 if you want to do a lot of emulation. I 2309 01:47:35.239 --> 01:47:36.880 think it's just so easy to set up on the 2310 01:47:36.920 --> 01:47:39.039 Steam Deck that I would probably go in that direction, 2311 01:47:39.920 --> 01:47:42.359 and then you could stream stuff to CHIACKI from your PlayStation, 2312 01:47:42.439 --> 01:47:45.039 so you don't need a portal. That oled screen looks 2313 01:47:45.279 --> 01:47:48.279 so good. Yeah I would. I would. I would hop 2314 01:47:48.359 --> 01:47:50.159 on this. See they're gonna have a new steam Deck 2315 01:47:50.199 --> 01:47:54.800 probably next year maybe, but your Steam Deck's still going 2316 01:47:54.840 --> 01:47:56.640 to be great. You'll get a lot of value out 2317 01:47:56.680 --> 01:47:58.199 of that over the next year or so. So yeah, 2318 01:47:58.239 --> 01:47:59.680 I would get that. I do too. 2319 01:47:59.800 --> 01:48:01.399 Yeah, And I saw someone Chad say, don't get the 2320 01:48:01.560 --> 01:48:03.800 PlayStation portal as your only handheld. I agree with that. 2321 01:48:03.840 --> 01:48:06.079 That's gonna limit you in a way the others won't. Also, 2322 01:48:06.680 --> 01:48:09.199 the switch to will but if you're a big Nintendo fan, 2323 01:48:09.479 --> 01:48:11.720 that might, you know, override the rest. But the Steam 2324 01:48:11.760 --> 01:48:12.920 decads is the most versatile. 2325 01:48:13.000 --> 01:48:13.239 I think. 2326 01:48:13.760 --> 01:48:18.640 Yep, agreed, Agreed, all right. Next email comes from Brock 2327 01:48:18.840 --> 01:48:23.439 from Toronto, Ontario. They write in about best co op games. Hey, 2328 01:48:23.479 --> 01:48:27.079 Bomber's longtime listener. After listening to the Revengeance on Friday 2329 01:48:27.119 --> 01:48:29.359 of the Mount rushmore of co op, I would like 2330 01:48:29.399 --> 01:48:31.920 to add one of my favorite co op games, Gauntlet 2331 01:48:32.199 --> 01:48:36.319 Dark Legacy for the original Xbox featured four player cop 2332 01:48:36.399 --> 01:48:38.560 in which each player chose a different class to play as. 2333 01:48:39.079 --> 01:48:41.520 My question is, have any of you played it or 2334 01:48:41.560 --> 01:48:43.600 remember playing this? Do you think it should make the 2335 01:48:43.680 --> 01:48:44.399 Mount rushmore? 2336 01:48:45.159 --> 01:48:47.680 Wouldn't just it was an update of Gauntlet Legacy, right. 2337 01:48:47.640 --> 01:48:51.439 For our Legacy or Gauntlet Legends.

It's so so much time, right, that. 2342 01:49:03.640 --> 01:49:05.439 Did that come out around the same time as the 2343 01:49:05.479 --> 01:49:07.960 first Tony Hawk, because I remember debating, like, you know, 2344 01:49:08.000 --> 01:49:09.760 I had enough money to buy one game, and I 2345 01:49:09.840 --> 01:49:11.199 was like, all right, do I want to get Gauntlet 2346 01:49:11.319 --> 01:49:12.479 or do I want to get Tony Hawk? And I 2347 01:49:12.479 --> 01:49:15.039 remember thinking, like, four player Gauntlet sounds great, and then 2348 01:49:15.199 --> 01:49:17.720 I just got bored of it quick and returned it. 2349 01:49:17.880 --> 01:49:21.199 Yeah, it's a it's a rental game.

Suck 2361 01:49:43.720 --> 01:49:45.039 to ask for That first one was fun? 2362 01:49:45.479 --> 01:49:47.279 Yeah, yeah, the second one just didn't hit as much, 2363 01:49:47.319 --> 01:49:49.359 but the first one was super fun and just very 2364 01:49:49.399 --> 01:49:50.000 easy pick up. 2365 01:49:50.039 --> 01:49:52.600 And everyone loves Ultimate Alliance three on the Nintendo Switch. 2366 01:49:52.640 --> 01:49:57.119 I forgot that.

Hey there, Willow from Cleveland here. 2371 01:50:15.560 --> 01:50:17.840 I heard on the last BombCast that Mike played tuba 2372 01:50:18.000 --> 01:50:20.840 in high school. I also played tuba in school for 2373 01:50:21.000 --> 01:50:24.000 seven years. I played that monstrosity in marching band and 2374 01:50:24.159 --> 01:50:27.359 regular band. However, I also made sure to branch out 2375 01:50:27.399 --> 01:50:31.159 by playing upright bass in jazz jazz band plus electric 2376 01:50:31.199 --> 01:50:34.119 bass and pet band in show choir. I even did 2377 01:50:34.159 --> 01:50:37.479 some singing in regular choir. What musical extracurricular talents did 2378 01:50:37.560 --> 01:50:39.600 y'all get up to in middle school? In a high 2379 01:50:39.600 --> 01:50:42.359 school Love you all, ps. I really tried to get 2380 01:50:42.399 --> 01:50:45.920 my band director to let me play the Moog synthesizer 2381 01:50:45.960 --> 01:50:48.119 in pet band. He refused vehemently. 2382 01:50:50.000 --> 01:50:50.920 Alto saxophone. 2383 01:50:50.920 --> 01:50:53.520 I've talked about it before, Sambademigo, that's it for me. 2384 01:50:56.159 --> 01:50:59.039 My brother who also did tubea and my one friend 2385 01:50:59.079 --> 01:51:01.239 who did to did the whole. Hey, I was gonna 2386 01:51:01.279 --> 01:51:04.439 do jazz band and play bass in that because he 2387 01:51:04.600 --> 01:51:06.560 kind of transferred in certain ways. 2388 01:51:06.560 --> 01:51:09.600 I never I was never going to the guitar like instruments. 2389 01:51:09.760 --> 01:51:11.920 Never could really get a handle on any of that stuff. 2390 01:51:11.960 --> 01:51:14.880 So our marching band program was very big where I 2391 01:51:15.079 --> 01:51:17.720 was at that time, Like we had like the school 2392 01:51:18.439 --> 01:51:20.520 was maybe six hundred kids, but the marching band was 2393 01:51:20.560 --> 01:51:23.640 somehow three hundreds. So it was just this massive percentage 2394 01:51:24.119 --> 01:51:27.079 of people were in the marching band with this big deal. 2395 01:51:27.800 --> 01:51:31.159 It was a cultural thing there. So that alone was 2396 01:51:31.359 --> 01:51:33.640 took up a lot of time doing all the marching 2397 01:51:33.760 --> 01:51:35.439 and the console stuff and whatnot. 2398 01:51:36.520 --> 01:51:39.920 I like I mentioned earlier on this podcast, I picked 2399 01:51:39.960 --> 01:51:43.880 up a ukulele because of Explosion Man. I also learned 2400 01:51:43.920 --> 01:51:46.239 to play the banjo and I would still be playing 2401 01:51:46.239 --> 01:51:49.319 the banjo if my friend did not sit on the 2402 01:51:49.359 --> 01:51:53.359 banjo and break the neck of it. He never he 2403 01:51:53.479 --> 01:51:55.279 never offered to pay pay me back for it to 2404 01:51:55.359 --> 01:51:56.079 replace the banjo. 2405 01:51:56.239 --> 01:51:58.319 What the hell, That's what I'm saying. 2406 01:51:59.600 --> 01:52:07.239 Oh, all right, let's go with three more emails. Happy 2407 01:52:07.359 --> 01:52:10.800 GDC week to those that celebrate. Thank you for visiting 2408 01:52:10.880 --> 01:52:14.520 my city. This email is about GDC. Comes from Sean 2409 01:52:14.560 --> 01:52:18.199 from Philly. Hello, Bombers. I'm going to my first GDC 2410 01:52:18.359 --> 01:52:19.960 this week, and I was wondering if you have any 2411 01:52:20.039 --> 01:52:22.319 advice for a first timer. I can only make the 2412 01:52:22.399 --> 01:52:24.960 career Day on Friday, and as crazy as it may sound, 2413 01:52:25.039 --> 01:52:27.800 I truly do want to work in this industry parentheses, 2414 01:52:28.039 --> 01:52:30.439 even with everything the past few years have been any 2415 01:52:30.520 --> 01:52:33.199 general advice, is it weird to be networking there? Should? 2416 01:52:33.239 --> 01:52:35.840 I just go with the flow, have fun, visit booths 2417 01:52:35.880 --> 01:52:38.399 that interest me. I've got a few speaker sessions scheduled 2418 01:52:38.439 --> 01:52:41.960 and speed networking, but was also hoping for any perspective 2419 01:52:42.000 --> 01:52:44.279 you guys can give thanks and hope you all have 2420 01:52:44.359 --> 01:52:46.760 a great week. Sean for Philly ps go birds. 2421 01:52:47.279 --> 01:52:50.159 It's the most networking of these conference. Yeah, don't feel 2422 01:52:50.199 --> 01:52:52.079 bad about networking there at all. That's kind of the 2423 01:52:52.159 --> 01:52:52.680 whole point. 2424 01:52:53.199 --> 01:52:55.199 Yeah, And like you know, I think the way you 2425 01:52:55.279 --> 01:52:58.359 make that happen is people do have booths, and so 2426 01:52:58.600 --> 01:53:00.920 go talk to them and get them some of your time, 2427 01:53:01.560 --> 01:53:04.479 and then once they like it's okay to be transactional 2428 01:53:04.520 --> 01:53:06.600 at a thing like GDC, everyone's pain to be there. 2429 01:53:07.039 --> 01:53:09.479 They know what the score is. So if you go 2430 01:53:09.600 --> 01:53:11.319 there and like listen to their pitch for their thing 2431 01:53:11.359 --> 01:53:13.960 and be like, that's really cool. I think that's really fascinating. 2432 01:53:14.159 --> 01:53:16.479 I have some questions. Here's my angle of trying to 2433 01:53:16.520 --> 01:53:18.600 get into this industry, Do you have any recommendations for me? 2434 01:53:18.640 --> 01:53:21.119 And they'll want to talk about their experience because they 2435 01:53:21.199 --> 01:53:23.039 know why you're there and they want to help it. 2436 01:53:23.159 --> 01:53:25.920 That's the whole point. So don't be shy about that stuff. 2437 01:53:26.760 --> 01:53:28.960 Try to look for some mixers. If there's people you 2438 01:53:29.119 --> 01:53:33.479 only recognize from you know, being online or from podcasts 2439 01:53:33.560 --> 01:53:35.920 or from Twitter or from videos, go say hi, I 2440 01:53:35.960 --> 01:53:37.760 tell them you like their stuff, and see if they're 2441 01:53:37.760 --> 01:53:39.119 willing to give you some of their time. Maybe they are, 2442 01:53:39.199 --> 01:53:42.000 maybe they aren't. But everyone knows the whole point of 2443 01:53:42.119 --> 01:53:44.199 being there, so it's okay to try to network. 2444 01:53:44.760 --> 01:53:46.560 I always thought so weird of GDC, even when I 2445 01:53:46.600 --> 01:53:48.239 went to lived in San Francisco, I never went to 2446 01:53:48.439 --> 01:53:49.960 It's not it's not our thing. That's the thing that 2447 01:53:50.039 --> 01:53:52.279 I never understood, like media people going out there, because 2448 01:53:52.319 --> 01:53:54.279 it's like this isn't for us, this is for developers. 2449 01:53:54.319 --> 01:53:57.119 Like I wanted to developers like networking, even even with media. 2450 01:53:57.199 --> 01:53:58.439 But I definitely had that same sense. 2451 01:53:58.560 --> 01:54:00.239 Yeah, I feel like I was encroaching, and I I 2452 01:54:00.359 --> 01:54:01.319 just never wanted to go again. 2453 01:54:01.399 --> 01:54:05.119 Yeah, there would be some good retro game like retrospectives 2454 01:54:05.239 --> 01:54:06.039 or panels like that. 2455 01:54:07.079 --> 01:54:09.640 I want to enjoy some of the talks. But yeah, 2456 01:54:09.680 --> 01:54:10.840 personally it was never mye I. 2457 01:54:10.840 --> 01:54:12.600 Was kind of wis was going this year? MVG is 2458 01:54:12.640 --> 01:54:15.079 like if we're showing off the stuff with with Kroc 2459 01:54:15.119 --> 01:54:17.680 and a bunch of with the Bubbsy stuff, and then 2460 01:54:17.720 --> 01:54:19.399 he's like, I'll show it to you ready to go? 2461 01:54:19.520 --> 01:54:21.039 I know you're the Bubbsy guy, like. 2462 01:54:23.800 --> 01:54:25.680 All the grateful dead around, You're gonna be like that 2463 01:54:25.760 --> 01:54:26.279 for Bubbsy. 2464 01:54:26.800 --> 01:54:28.359 It seems like that.
