Speaker 7: it is now now Disney owns it because they bought Fox.
Speaker 3: But it was fun.
Speaker 1: D Anastasia.
Speaker 3: You watch Blew My Mind?

Speaker 3: I remember seeing that in our kids. I spent a
Speaker 3: great deal of time in our kides is last week
Speaker 3: we talked about that a little bit. Maybe no, But
Speaker 3: every time I see one of those, I'm just like,
Speaker 3: why is this so volumess? Like what's up in there?
Speaker 2: Like we say, they had to be probably a big
Speaker 2: con mirror mirror, and like that's what causes the effect.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's weird, but I love it.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of that now in the in the
Speaker 3: kid gambling games, like they do the fake screen projection stuff,
Speaker 3: like to what end? You know, there's like a like
Speaker 3: a four way sort of mirror where you can play
Speaker 3: competitively where you're sort of like jamming on buttons and
Speaker 3: the winner gets, you know, all the tickets kind of.
Speaker 2: Stuff are there, like little characters moving around a little you
Speaker 2: gotta like stomp people.
Speaker 3: There's I mean, it could be whatever it is because
Speaker 3: it's a screen. So like one mini game is like
Speaker 3: a stomper game. One mini game is like collect all
Speaker 3: the balls and then one of them is like whack
Speaker 3: them all kind of thing. Okay, for tickets, it's all
Speaker 3: about the time.
Speaker 1: I have a I have a question. If y'all will
Speaker 1: go on this thought journey with me, I'll take you
Speaker 1: thing you want, thank you? Uh is Until Dawn the
Speaker 1: spiritual successor of Dragon's Laird God.
Speaker 4: I think that's not a panic for Segacy d is Okay,
Speaker 4: Well that can be within the that's like, yeah, that's
Speaker 4: the missing link evolutionary chain there.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, you know, when we got really crazy
Speaker 7: with the quick time events, like that stuff was all
Speaker 7: just dragons Layer, dragons There was just quick time events
Speaker 7: before they were.
Speaker 3: Cool and the only thing in the game.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay. Is there more of a direct link from
Speaker 1: dragons Layer to Until Dawn or is there more of
Speaker 1: a direct link from dragons Layer to User's.
Speaker 3: Wrath Until Dawn? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Until dawn I would say story, it's like a movie.
Speaker 2: You know, they're all on the same tree, right, they
Speaker 2: branch off. You go in this direction, you get a
Speaker 2: night trap right where it's like, oh, you're gonna move
Speaker 2: cameras around, and then you go keep going and that
Speaker 2: directs you get five nights at Freddy's. But they're all
Speaker 2: sort of branching off from this, like.
Speaker 3: Sewark in that. Yeah, okay, yes, I think about sewer
Speaker 3: sharking night trap a lot. I don't know why I think.
Speaker 1: About sewer shark constantly. I love sewer shark. You a
Speaker 1: sewer shark, go up your butt?
Speaker 3: Yeah, come on, sewer is charitable, sewer sharp. Okay, listen,
Speaker 3: Oh John Dykstra, he's the I l M guy.
Speaker 2: Way, why are we okay, hold on, hold on, hold down,
Speaker 2: this podcast needs to slow down. I'm sorry, where are
Speaker 2: we going from this man's ass?
Speaker 3: John dikes so fast because John Diykster directed sewer Shark.
Speaker 2: John distra Sard Squad like he did the first he
Speaker 2: did the first Star Wars, and thenone was like I
Speaker 2: feel like when you watch.
Speaker 3: That first star was George Lucas Special, I was gonna
Speaker 3: have to sit and listen for a second. Okay, Uh,
Speaker 3: he was like the first round for the first Star
Speaker 3: Wars movie, right, he was like I don't know if
Speaker 3: he was like head of the studio, but he was
Speaker 3: like definitely the driving force at ILM or what was
Speaker 3: he was?
Speaker 2: He like was George Lucas's right hand man for forming
Speaker 2: ILM for Star Wars New Hope specifically, but they do.
Speaker 3: Sort of address it in the ILM doc that like
Speaker 3: there was a bit of a falling out.
Speaker 2: They broke up, and that he didn't go up the
Speaker 2: marine for win ISLM moved Yes, that's right, and then.
Speaker 3: He's like, so instead I went and directed myself some
Speaker 3: sewer sharks.
Speaker 7: I'm more like Joe Johnson guy for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Joe Johnson was like right there. He's like on the
Speaker 2: art team and stuff like that, did everything, but not
Speaker 2: Johnson different one. Dykester invented the Dykester Flex, which is
Speaker 2: the computer that moved the camera around so that the
Speaker 2: blue screen could be captured in a way.
Speaker 3: That made the ships look like they were flying. That
Speaker 3: was him, Yeah, Yeah, he's kind of brilliant.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jeff, we worked with.
Speaker 3: Daughter for a little Chloe Dykes Travel.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 7: Yeah, chloing in a while in which he's up to yep.
Speaker 1: All right, well we can all agree that the name
Speaker 1: Chloe is fun because you could pronounce it cello.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: Anyways, video games.
Speaker 3: Totally.
Speaker 1: I had a friend that this was a very important
Speaker 1: English English class presentation about what's it called? Just just
Speaker 1: a book we had to read? This was maybe like
Speaker 1: ap English and our grade really hinged on this. And
Speaker 1: he decided to give his presentation about the book Dante's Inferno.
Speaker 1: And if you're a first yes, it's also based off
Speaker 1: the game. Yes, and the I don't know. I guess
Speaker 1: one of the main characters is Euryticy. And I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure it's pronounced Eurytic because I've heard it in Hadestown
Speaker 1: as well the musical.
Speaker 4: Oh it's eu r y dice. Right, Yes, I've read
Speaker 4: that a million times. In my head, it's always been
Speaker 4: uri dice, but it's you say it again.
Speaker 3: That's a very different thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a game I'm playing this week. Uh. And
Speaker 1: then the whole time he and this was like a
Speaker 1: ten minute presentation we're supposed to give to the class.
Speaker 1: He just starts saying, you're a DJ and he kind
Speaker 1: of got marked down for that, but ury Dice coming
Speaker 1: to Steam soon, please wish list it. Uh, guys, I'm
Speaker 1: still playing the horse game game. Not you, not just you.
Speaker 1: Everyone I know is.
Speaker 4: People at a wedding I went to this weekend. We're
Speaker 4: pulling out their horse games.
Speaker 3: It's a very specific wedding number one number. Can we
Speaker 3: play a little bit of catch up? I've only gotten
Speaker 3: drips and drabs of what the horse anime?
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: Look, maybe for the purposes of like everyone else who's
Speaker 3: just tuning in needs to be caught up, like myself.
Speaker 3: Can we just explain it like I'm five for a
Speaker 3: second and tell me what the horse game is? Horse game?
Speaker 3: Side games? Gotcha game.
Speaker 1: Developers?
Speaker 3: Side games? Yeah, got it?
Speaker 1: Okay, gotcha game? And you roll for horse girls and
Speaker 1: then you race the horse girls.
Speaker 2: They're a girl that has horse ears and a horsetail.
Speaker 2: But then when they go on the horse race. No,
Speaker 2: they don't transform into horse. They just run as girls.
Speaker 3: So they're running on two legs.
Speaker 1: Yes, because they're girls.
Speaker 3: So it's there's almost no horse element whatsoever.
Speaker 1: No. No, because then you they're in like, what what
Speaker 1: is a gate? Like in actual horse racing?
Speaker 3: That's not a horse element that It's just like, it
Speaker 3: looks very horse element.
Speaker 2: Everything is horse except for the girl. Does that make sense?
Speaker 1: They're also they're also named after famous horses that race
Speaker 1: in Japan.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Special Week and Gold Show.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fine. I like horse names. They're weird and them, yes, okay,
Speaker 3: And then what about are they wearing blinders? Is there
Speaker 3: a jockey on them?
Speaker 1: That'd be weird?
Speaker 3: Of course, yeah, you're right. My mistake. Is this some
Speaker 3: sort of like Derby? Is it like, yes, Triple Crown? Yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 1: I have gotten to the umasume finale or the classic
Speaker 1: with I think god, what's her name? Special Week? No
Speaker 1: Super Week? No Special Week?
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's Special Week obviously, so you know I remember that.
Speaker 1: Anything else there's backler. The most important part is when
Speaker 1: you win a significant race, perhaps like a G one
Speaker 1: or a G two, your horse girl will put on
Speaker 1: a little concert singing.
Speaker 7: Yeah, j pop songs. Yeah yeah, some people getting worked
Speaker 7: up about this horse game. I had a hit skeet
Speaker 7: this weekend. I was the picture of Don Coals and
Speaker 7: Jim Ross looking like shocked in the ring, and I
Speaker 7: just captured it. My grandparents watching from heaven as I
Speaker 7: play the horse Girl game and.
Speaker 1: A most people like yah haha.
Speaker 7: One person was like, I've watched Giant Bump for ten
Speaker 7: years and I'm done.
Speaker 3: I was like, what was this person pro horse Girl game?
Speaker 1: Or were they anti horse Girl or like anti grandparent?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: So I tried.
Speaker 7: I tried to ask him, but I was blocked. Nobody
Speaker 7: harasses they. I just want to know, Like, I just
Speaker 7: wanted to know, Like, what do you think that like
Speaker 7: being picking on the horse Girl game? Do you think
Speaker 7: it's gross that I'm even evoking the horse Girl game?
Speaker 7: I couldn't tell you.
Speaker 2: I think it's mostly people mad that were we don't
Speaker 2: seem to get the horse Girl game. Now, Jane obviously
Speaker 2: does get it, oh more than.
Speaker 3: Sounds like you guys get it in a way that
Speaker 3: I can't even put my finger with the record. I
Speaker 3: do not.
Speaker 5: Let's make that clear.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, okay, we're just like pointing out it,
Speaker 2: like yeah, yeah, that's like one of those games where
Speaker 2: you're supposed to collect girls, and sure that's that's a
Speaker 2: thing that happens, and people can do that have fun.
Speaker 3: But we're pointing that out and everyone's like, it's not.
Speaker 2: Pervy though it's like, oh, okay, I'm sorry, but it
Speaker 2: is a game where you collect human girls.
Speaker 3: That's all. That's all I'm saying. Excuse me, they're not
Speaker 3: even judging anyone.
Speaker 2: That's right, you're not you're there horse girls. My bad,
Speaker 2: I'm not judging anyone.
Speaker 3: Go have fun.
Speaker 1: Knock yourself.
Speaker 3: Horse. Horse seers on top like horses would and then
Speaker 3: a tail. Right yeah, right, but they're not like centaurs. However,
Speaker 3: they're not like that.
Speaker 7: No, no, no, they aren't that much horse anyway.
Speaker 3: So they're not like the mermaid version of a horse.
Speaker 1: Negative. No, anyway, it's a fun game. Also, you can
Speaker 1: because of this game, people have been learned more about
Speaker 1: horse care. And also one specific horse that is currently active.
Speaker 1: You there's a link in the game to feed that
Speaker 1: actual horse, so you can send hay or like grass
Speaker 1: or whatever, and that horse has been inundated with food
Speaker 1: because of the generosity of the Umusume mussume pretty derby community.
Speaker 1: So that's pretty fun.
Speaker 2: What the game had to put out instructions to the
Speaker 2: audience to be like, if you go visit a real horse,
Speaker 2: here's like the rules of the etiquette for for how
Speaker 2: to handle a real horse.
Speaker 1: So very well, game Busters, I'm not.
Speaker 3: Going to take any We're publishing it, so that's yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to take any credit for it. But hey,
Speaker 1: you know, uh anyway, it had me though, So you
Speaker 1: can use all my cool friend cards because there's also
Speaker 1: a card collecting aspect. Maybe that'll hook you in backlar.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm back in and they're back in.
Speaker 1: Special shouts out to Matt Shipman that joined us for
Speaker 1: the Jantuch derby last week. Nice Jeff Grubb, I'm curious
Speaker 1: about micro dosing. Can you tell me more about it?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I've been microdo sing a little bit of Mico punk,
Speaker 2: and it's been like, I haven't spent a lot of
Speaker 2: time in there. I kind of want to just like
Speaker 2: get a feel for it because it's something we're probably
Speaker 2: going to play together. And I was like, okay, is
Speaker 2: this border lance? Because that's the sense I got before
Speaker 2: I actually booted it up. And for people don't know
Speaker 2: new shooter Cell shaded four player, you pick a class,
Speaker 2: it's border lance, and I think the thing about it
Speaker 2: that makes it work for me is it's very straightforward, still.
Speaker 1: Has a bit of silliness to it.
Speaker 2: They're like, there's going to be just kind of things
Speaker 2: happening in the world with characters trying to make jokes
Speaker 2: but not too over and it's not constant. But it
Speaker 2: just seems like a pair down, simplified version of border
Speaker 2: Lands that's all about shooting things with cool guns, finding
Speaker 2: new guns, and as you find new guns, the number
Speaker 2: that when you shoot an enemy and the number comes
Speaker 2: off the enemy, it gets bigger and that feels good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jeff Grub, I have a very important question. Yeah, please,
Speaker 1: two questions. One, are the characters constantly cracking wise?
Speaker 2: They are not constantly cracking wise? Yeah, I'm again, I'm
Speaker 2: not too far in so I might still be in
Speaker 2: a part where your characters aren't talking as much as
Speaker 2: like the characters that are introducing the environment to you. There,
Speaker 2: They've got a little bit of a cracking wise element
Speaker 2: to them, but not a ton It's it's definitely not
Speaker 2: trying to be exactly like Borderlands on that front.
Speaker 1: Okay, follow up question. Is there an affable automaton or
Speaker 1: a robot that follows me and then I can befriend.
Speaker 3: Perhaps there's a clap of some kind.
Speaker 2: There is I haven't seen a clap and or trap,
Speaker 2: but there is a character. I don't know if I've
Speaker 2: like met the character physically. He might just be talking
Speaker 2: to me on the radio. But he's definitely got like
Speaker 2: a sense of humor where it's like we walk up
Speaker 2: to this gigantic mammoth door and you think like you're
Speaker 2: gonna do this question and you're gonna open the door,
Speaker 2: and of course you do the quest and it opens
Speaker 2: a small little hatch to the left, and he's just
Speaker 2: kind of joking about that, like, you know, pointing out
Speaker 2: the humor of that situation.
Speaker 1: That's that's the kind of thing that we're getting from
Speaker 1: this game. Okay, Okay, Yeah, we're gonna try and play
Speaker 1: this tomorrow. I believe we're gonna try to settle a gang.
Speaker 2: I think that's where I came away from it from, like, oh,
Speaker 2: we should play this game.
Speaker 1: I think we would have a good time. Nice. Nice.
Speaker 1: Are the guns or of firearms in the game. Are
Speaker 1: they kind of outlandish or mushroom themed?
Speaker 3: Not?
Speaker 2: So far, they've been kind of just weapons. There's a shotgun,
Speaker 2: you know, there's a cool shotgun where when you aim
Speaker 2: it around, a bunch of laser beams shoot off the
Speaker 2: surface you're aiming it at to show you how they're
Speaker 2: going to deflect, and I think you get like a
Speaker 2: bonus if you hit something with that, you know, deflected
Speaker 2: ammunition instead. So say, okay, there's more to these guns
Speaker 2: than just it's a gun. But it's not so far.
Speaker 2: I've not seen anything that's a half mushroom half gun
Speaker 2: or anything like that, which I think we probably will
Speaker 2: get into. I mean that that's the whole theme of
Speaker 2: the game, is you're surrounded by mushrooms. Mike Minatti from
Speaker 2: john Bomb has a question though.
Speaker 7: On this game Steam page, there's a section of reviews
Speaker 7: and the first one is by Randy Pittsford and it
Speaker 7: says mic o punk is cheaper than a point of meth,
Speaker 7: probably has fewer side effects too.
Speaker 3: Is that real?
Speaker 2: I don't people can change their name. I'm if you
Speaker 2: look at people's ach this isn't to user review. This
Speaker 2: is like they put this on their Steam.
Speaker 5: It's a box quote.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's probably real.
Speaker 2: Then they probably got the blessing from the Godfather himself.
Speaker 2: Randy Pitchford of the Borderlands genre.
Speaker 4: Sure, it feels like a very nineteen ninety seven e
Speaker 4: gm ad Polking.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Mean Randy Pittrid feels like a very nineteen ninety seven
Speaker 2: kind of guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god, Hey, question for the room here.
Speaker 1: Was battle Borne intended to be horny because that's the
Speaker 1: last thing I remember with mushrooms.
Speaker 3: In it, battle Born on Romney. Yeah, there was a
Speaker 3: character that was a mushroom, right.
Speaker 7: I don't think it was even as horny is overwatched,
Speaker 7: to be honest, So now.
Speaker 4: Okay, well over overwatches no, you know, okay, Mike, Mike,
Speaker 4: you know how we mentioned like you you don't like
Speaker 4: it when I'm like, oh, did the artist intend this?
Speaker 4: Then it's not real thing. Do you think Overwatch was
Speaker 4: intended to have a horny element.
Speaker 7: I think that they definitely wanted their characters to be
Speaker 7: a t active and for costs.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I.
Speaker 1: Think they didn't mind if people found them actually attracted.
Speaker 7: I think even they were stunned by the links that
Speaker 7: people went to for those characters.
Speaker 4: I just think there's always like, well, who's the warniest
Speaker 4: Overwatch character?
Speaker 5: And I'm gonna see if it seems intentional.
Speaker 2: Widdow makers butt sticks out to like other states like
Speaker 2: it was from one state to the next.
Speaker 3: I just don't think there's a sniper lady downside. You
Speaker 3: don't know about him though, I mean sure, I.
Speaker 4: Think I'm saying here, she's got kind of a low
Speaker 4: v thing going on. I guess that's intentionally horny.
Speaker 7: Remember remember God, remember that early Tracer like victory post
Speaker 7: that they had to edit out because people thought it
Speaker 7: was I'll never forget sexy something.
Speaker 3: Dan, You're both.
Speaker 2: Right and wrong, Like, get what you're getting at? Did
Speaker 2: they intend for there to be graphic Pornogay.
Speaker 4: Was the meeting where mister Blizzard was like, we need
Speaker 4: people to be whacking off crazy to this.
Speaker 2: I know, yeah, it sort of just happens, Okay, so
Speaker 2: that some of the World of Warcraft character designed so
Speaker 2: look like the original so Vanas and Jana prowd Moore's
Speaker 2: they know what they're doing there.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, a peak behind the current folks.
Speaker 1: This is how we came up with the formation of
Speaker 1: the current Giant bomb is just to get that, that's.
Speaker 7: Right, much sexier. That's why they finally brought me in.
Speaker 7: Speaking of sexy, they had to like shave my body
Speaker 7: hair and parts to put the like vital sign things.
Speaker 3: I just have patches missing.
Speaker 1: Now. Look, I look like a damn fool off.
Speaker 3: The pool.
Speaker 1: They were They were just joking around with you, Mike.
Speaker 1: They didn't actually need to do that.
Speaker 3: Face.
Speaker 1: Did I feel bad with this?
Speaker 7: Like nurse who like has a much more important job
Speaker 7: than me and had to like has so much harder
Speaker 7: schooling and everything. I had a fucking razor and was
Speaker 7: shaving my fucking like army.
Speaker 3: Hair, Like why because that shaving process cost eleven hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: Well for that nurse. It was definitely some dark times,
Speaker 1: perhaps the Dark Ages. Just like Mike, you've been playing
Speaker 1: Doom the Dark Ages.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I've been trying to like catch up on this
Speaker 7: more and play through it because I do. I like
Speaker 7: this game, and I generally do like it a lot.
Speaker 7: I like it, you know, about that same wavelength as
Speaker 7: the other two. There's like a little bit of a Okay,
Speaker 7: we probably can't do another one of these for a goodwill.
Speaker 7: Even with the changes here, and I'm glad that they
Speaker 7: may changes, there is still something to I think the
Speaker 7: Doom reboot where I'd be happy to see them go
Speaker 7: a very different direction. Part of it is maybe my problem,
Speaker 7: the whole kind of hell aesthetic. I'm a little bit
Speaker 7: It was never my favorite and I wish they would
Speaker 7: change it more good game of course, yeah exactly, because
Speaker 7: there's like one level where I was in like a
Speaker 7: space ship. I'm like, okay, good, this vibe is a
Speaker 7: little bit different. But then like you know, Hell invades
Speaker 7: and it looks like a Hell spaceship and looks like
Speaker 7: Hell again. But yeah, I think this is a me
Speaker 7: problem too, And I thought about this more since I
Speaker 7: played those original Doom games. I don't love the way
Speaker 7: that the Doom Reboot trilogy handles secrets, or instead of
Speaker 7: it being things that maybe you find, maybe you don't
Speaker 7: find it, it's that it's just Matt Barf and it's
Speaker 7: tied so deeply into the progression of the game that
Speaker 7: you feel like it feels bad not getting all of them,
Speaker 7: because you need to get those currencies. You need to
Speaker 7: get that stuff so you can upgrade your weapons. So
Speaker 7: I feel like it's bad for the pacing that I
Speaker 7: kind of feel obligated to stop and look around and
Speaker 7: figure out how to get a secret. And sometimes I'll
Speaker 7: try to get one for like ten minutes and give
Speaker 7: up and then realize that, oh that door open when
Speaker 7: I progress the mission later. Over here, I almost wish
Speaker 7: I could like cut myself. Just don't stop going from them,
Speaker 7: just leave them alone, just just don't get them. But
Speaker 7: I kind of like that because it's like, no, I
Speaker 7: want to upgrade my shotgun. I gotta get it.
Speaker 4: You are, right, because like I feel like I like
Speaker 4: that game. But you know, you'll get a good way
Speaker 4: into a level and then you'll look at the mat.
Speaker 4: I'm constantly looking at the map, yes, and I'll look
Speaker 4: back and it'll be like, ah, the whole area is
Speaker 4: kind of like grade out, and I need it's gotta.
Speaker 5: Be something there. I gotta go.
Speaker 4: I'm just constantly checking and trying to figure out how
Speaker 4: to get the icons, you know.
Speaker 7: Right, Like I don't even know if you can call them.
Speaker 7: They call them secret areas. Still I don't know if
Speaker 7: it is a secret, And it feels like an obligation
Speaker 7: at a certain point now, And like you're playing Doom
Speaker 7: one and Doom two where it's like, man, maybe you'll
Speaker 7: find a secret and there'll be some AMMO, maybe you'll
Speaker 7: get the BFG.
Speaker 1: Earlier than you might have otherwise.
Speaker 7: There's you know, some fun to it, but it didn't
Speaker 7: feel necessary like it does here, and again it does
Speaker 7: kind of kill the pacer because I'd rather just be
Speaker 7: fighting things, and instead I'm sort of running around, yeah,
Speaker 7: making sure all the gray areas aren't gray, looking at
Speaker 7: the icons, getting all the currency stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Have you have you done any excuse me, have you
Speaker 2: done any like going through a level trying like actually
Speaker 2: ignoring some of that or maybe missing it and then
Speaker 2: going back and like trying to get that stuff a
Speaker 2: second run and it's much quicker, and oh, you're like,
Speaker 2: now I know where everything is.
Speaker 3: I could just run through this very fast.
Speaker 1: That works.
Speaker 2: That's how he did Doom twenty sixteen, and that mostly
Speaker 2: worked for me.
Speaker 3: Alth. I kind of agree with your overalls.
Speaker 7: I think I think I should and get part of
Speaker 7: this is definitely a me problem with just me having
Speaker 7: kind of a brain thing.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, especially now that I'm like on mission like what
Speaker 7: fourteen out of twenty two or something. I feel on
Speaker 7: normal mode, I'm probably strong enough. If I don't get
Speaker 7: a million more upgrades, I should be fine. So party
Speaker 7: must be like, let's just root force it a bit,
Speaker 7: and if I'm worried I don't have enough upgrades, then
Speaker 7: I can go back.
Speaker 1: Let's see how that feels.
Speaker 7: So I might try to play the game like that,
Speaker 7: but there's just a part of me where it's like,
Speaker 7: I especially when you can see it in the game,
Speaker 7: it's not as you'll literally see the thing behind some
Speaker 7: bars or something. I'm like, yeah, right, I want the thing.
Speaker 7: I gotta get the thing. How do I get the thing?
Speaker 1: You know what bummed me out with Doom the Dark
Speaker 1: Ages is I feel like it's kind of wild that
Speaker 1: tighten foll two maybe perhaps perfected controlling a gigantic mech
Speaker 1: and I'm chasing that feeling, and those segments in Doom
Speaker 1: the Dark Ages just kind of takes me out. I
Speaker 1: don't have the most fun with it.
Speaker 7: They're okay, diversions, you don't do it too often.
Speaker 3: So are they short? They kind of pretty short.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're pretty short.
Speaker 2: I could kind of yeah, I can get with that.
Speaker 2: If it's like breaking up the pacing, I.
Speaker 4: Kind of like and I just feel like like little
Speaker 4: gimmick levels of thing. You know, it's like, you know, oh,
Speaker 4: Yoshi's Island. In this level, you're a helicopter.
Speaker 3: You know. It's just like a quick little.
Speaker 7: Thing, similar to the Secrets. So I don't love the challenge.
Speaker 7: It's like I go on a level, and again next
Speaker 7: to my map it's like get kill five people with ricochet.
Speaker 1: Things or whatever.
Speaker 7: So now it's like before I feel like I can
Speaker 7: just play the game I want to, I gotta make
Speaker 7: sure I kill people with this gun or do this thing.
Speaker 7: And I kind of am like worried, I'm not gonna
Speaker 7: get it done until I do, even though I know
Speaker 7: I probably don't need that reward. But it's just staring
Speaker 7: at me. So again, I think part of it's a
Speaker 7: design thing, part of it is a me thing. Overall,
Speaker 7: that game is very good, super fun. I love all
Speaker 7: the shield stuff with it. I think the roster of
Speaker 7: weapons is pretty fantastic in it. Right, I love crunching
Speaker 7: skulls into a weapon and then shooting in at my
Speaker 7: enemies and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: You know what, That shield did remind me of a lot,
Speaker 1: And I feel like maybe it's because this has been
Speaker 1: on the brain for this website for maybe the past
Speaker 1: two weeks. Made me one of first person rye Gar.
Speaker 3: Hell yeah, Regar keeps coming up lately.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's grubs fault. I respect Jeff so much for
Speaker 1: playing through ry Gar.
Speaker 3: It's worth it.
Speaker 2: It's it's like it's a really good. It's short too,
Speaker 2: It's like, once you figure out a couple of secrets,
Speaker 2: it's like an hour and a half maybe, So yeah,
Speaker 2: it was.
Speaker 1: Worth it, all right. Speaking about good games, Mike Manatti,
Speaker 1: you claimed that this is maybe one of the greatest
Speaker 1: games of all time. You finished Sekiro.
Speaker 7: I did finish Secaro, and yeah, I think that's actually
Speaker 7: one of the best games ever. I loved it. It
Speaker 7: was like the whole time when I was playing through,
Speaker 7: and I'm like, man, I Old Rings probably sold the
Speaker 7: best drums off game, but this one's really good. Then
Speaker 7: I did that final boss and everything, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 7: this is this is the best one.
Speaker 3: Actually.
Speaker 7: I freaking adorse Scroo. I kind of I took to
Speaker 7: it in a way too. I really enjoyed that parrying
Speaker 7: and it just felt good to me. It made sense
Speaker 7: the stuff that I thought I would miss in it
Speaker 7: from like a Dark Souls or Outer Ring with the
Speaker 7: RPG stuff, I kind of didn't at the end. In
Speaker 7: some ways, it maybe even helped the pacing, just the
Speaker 7: faster movement stuff and the you know, having the grappling,
Speaker 7: but just fighting in that game feels so freaking good.
Speaker 7: Getting in that rhythm of the blocking and then really
Speaker 7: getting down all these kind of like other systems that
Speaker 7: will pop up. Sometimes the car recounter is an all
Speaker 7: time game mechanic. Stomping on a dude's spear or sword
Speaker 7: when they're lunging at you feels so.
Speaker 2: That's the up and perry button, right like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's that's the I think about that in my sleep.
Speaker 3: Sometimes. It's such good that feel.
Speaker 7: What time I called it shabbar recounter by accident, that
Speaker 7: was funny. It's the bar counter even like sometimes there's
Speaker 7: a sweeping ATTAXI get to jump on their heads instead. God,
Speaker 7: just all that just feel so freaking good. And these
Speaker 7: fights are so like many of my new favorite boss
Speaker 7: fights ever aren't this game. And I'm so glad that
Speaker 7: the final boss fight is like kind of the hardest
Speaker 7: one or one the hardest ones. Even Dark Souls game
Speaker 7: sometimes struggle with that, where the actual final bosses sometimes
Speaker 7: I've pushed over and you get to play the d
Speaker 7: LC for the really challenging stuff. So here having that
Speaker 7: big challenge at the end, uh felt super good.
Speaker 1: Yeah uh.
Speaker 3: You were Kayla ten tries baby.
Speaker 1: Final.
Speaker 7: Now Kyla has thrown down a Gauntlet that we should
Speaker 7: both play through Demon Souls and each keep track of
Speaker 7: our kills on each other.
Speaker 1: That's good, we do there. I'm I'm nowhere near the
Speaker 1: level of gamer that Mike is, but I I did
Speaker 1: have man is so fucking amazing. I completed off stream.
Speaker 1: But I do need to tell people that, hey, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of cool mods in the game to just
Speaker 1: put on a different ninja of your choice of.
Speaker 2: Your Yeah, like ee ninja, Yes, that's the number one
Speaker 2: actually yea with the community.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, everyone in chat right now. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: they're going insane about e ninja gat ninja. I was
Speaker 1: gonna talk cops. No, I'm just gonna talk about a
Speaker 1: nawrito ninja. I just by the way, I'm embarrassed.
Speaker 7: It's not even Hakari is the Japanese name of that
Speaker 7: song from Kingdom Hearts. It's not Shapari or Hikari. It's
Speaker 7: the micary counter.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: There.
Speaker 4: It is a part of me that wants to try
Speaker 4: securr Row. I mean I put like probably ten hours
Speaker 4: into it. I think I got pass Madame Butterfly and
Speaker 4: so like, I just was not able to click with
Speaker 4: the like not being able to level up and just
Speaker 4: kind of choose myself. Like, now that I've gotten very
Speaker 4: good at perrying, I want to go back and see
Speaker 4: if I can apply your skills to sec.
Speaker 7: I will say Lady Butterfly was the boss that took
Speaker 7: me the most tries. That one was like forty. I
Speaker 7: think I kind of did it, maybe a little bit
Speaker 7: earlier than I should have.
Speaker 1: But I think if you.
Speaker 2: Can, you can kind of you were you were when
Speaker 2: most people do it. I think, actually, if you could
Speaker 2: beat Lady Butterfly, I think you can beat the game.
Speaker 3: Honestly, I agree, Okay, I agree.
Speaker 1: Dan. We'll get to why you're an ace at pairing
Speaker 1: at the end of the game segment so folks can
Speaker 1: avoid spoilers. But Jeff Grubb, we played a lot of
Speaker 1: Tony Hawk pro Skater three plus four last week on UPF.
Speaker 1: We raced to see you could get to the cruise
Speaker 1: level first, and Dan's ace memory got him there the quickest.
Speaker 1: His memory skill.
Speaker 7: Destroyed us like a still trap. It wasn't even now,
Speaker 7: it wasn't even close, to be honest.
Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty minutes or something like that. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I've been playing Tony OOKX pro Skater four OG
Speaker 2: actually because I was like, well, you know, I do
Speaker 2: want to play some more of this to compare contrast,
Speaker 2: and it is nice to just like because those levels
Speaker 2: do feel like they were made for you to explore them,
Speaker 2: find the corners, and then find a mission and do
Speaker 2: that mission, and so like I kind of like having
Speaker 2: the ability to just free skating those worlds before activating
Speaker 2: a mission. But as a game where you know, if
Speaker 2: I'm to like just take each quest log for each
Speaker 2: of those games three plus four's version of four and
Speaker 2: Tony Oaks pro Skater four, the ones for for plus
Speaker 2: four do feel better designed. They feel like that this
Speaker 2: just feels like better for this game in this moment.
Speaker 2: It actually does a better job of expressing all your
Speaker 2: abilities or whatever, or or even like the like the
Speaker 2: parade float, that's one that's in both, but it's it's edited.
Speaker 1: For plus four.
Speaker 2: That one's like, don't just go back and forth like
Speaker 2: ten times, which is what they want you to do
Speaker 2: in the original, Like let's make it just quick but
Speaker 2: a burst of fun. And so it just feels like
Speaker 2: a better experience overall, even if I get people still
Speaker 2: missing out on the stuff and four, but original four
Speaker 2: still very good.
Speaker 1: I really like that.
Speaker 7: You like, do you enjoy like the NPC encounters? Is
Speaker 7: there something to talk into some of those goobers or skaters?
Speaker 2: Sometimes not always, like there's the occasional NPC that's like,
Speaker 2: oh that's funny, or has that Tony Hawk attitude, you know,
Speaker 2: that extreme sports game attitude that was that a lot
Speaker 2: of those characters had at that time.
Speaker 1: It's that stuff's.
Speaker 2: Fun, for sure, but I'm not it's not so good
Speaker 2: that I'm like thinking about, oh, I'm missing out because
Speaker 2: I'm not getting that in three plus four. So that's
Speaker 2: kind of where I've fallen down. But this is definitely
Speaker 2: when I'm like, I'm glad to have both. I'm going
Speaker 2: to go back to both going forward.
Speaker 7: Sure, did you get to the Zoo because that's the
Speaker 7: one where it's like, I agree that I think I
Speaker 7: generally just like the two timer goal thing better, even
Speaker 7: though you know, I think they're both ways are good.
Speaker 7: But you know, Zoo going from a full level with
Speaker 7: its own missions to just a competition level, that's, yeah,
Speaker 7: I get why people can be a little bit peeved
Speaker 7: at that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's definitely the one that hurts the most for sure.
Speaker 2: It's I am like I wonder how they came to
Speaker 2: that decision. It's I don't think it's obvious, like, oh, well,
Speaker 2: clearly they should just pair this thing back completely. So
Speaker 2: I'm not exactly sure how that happens. But uh again,
Speaker 2: just overall, I think the four package three plus four
Speaker 2: package is working really well for me.
Speaker 3: I love that. Again.
Speaker 7: I played that game a ton during my prep day
Speaker 7: and it did helped me get through that day a lot.
Speaker 5: I went through it twice.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I did it on switch to and then I
Speaker 4: did it on on PS five and I actually played
Speaker 4: a bunch on the portal, and I was expecting that
Speaker 4: to not be great because of how reflex heavy it is, but.
Speaker 5: Nextually worked pretty well.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I wonder if it's fixed the crashing thing on switch
Speaker 4: because I did stop there and start on PS five.
Speaker 2: I haven't heard one way or the others. So yeah,
Speaker 2: I wonder if that's something now that's out there. You
Speaker 2: figure it would be people would be hollering because you
Speaker 2: were playing it early, right before it was like.
Speaker 5: A day before it came out.
Speaker 3: But okay, I see somebody, okay, ye, all right, so
Speaker 3: maybe it's still happening. That's a bummer.
Speaker 1: I just want to do a quick temp check.
Speaker 3: Here.
Speaker 4: We're all dpad Tony Hawk players right now. Somebody told
Speaker 4: me who is the pervert? Somebody told me Sean Sean.
Speaker 4: That's because Sean's like fifteen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, you can't do that with a No you
Speaker 5: need a dpad.
Speaker 1: Yeah yep. If someone could actually run a twitch poll,
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see what it's, uh, what kind of
Speaker 1: skater you are? Forget Mungo or whatever. I want to
Speaker 1: know if your dpad or analog or careful.
Speaker 5: For Tony specifically.
Speaker 7: Sean's because he started on the GameCube. But that makes
Speaker 7: sense because the game cub just does not have a
Speaker 7: good D pad.
Speaker 3: The deep pad in the GameCube is rough. Yeah you can't.
Speaker 7: You could use it for menu stuff like metro, like
Speaker 7: select your weapon, it's rough to use that to actually
Speaker 7: control the character that deep.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: I was using the GameCube depad to play Tony Ouks
Speaker 2: pro skater Ford like on that TV background.
Speaker 3: That's what I was.
Speaker 2: Actually it's bad, but it's I can make it work
Speaker 2: because I'm so used to it, and it's better than
Speaker 2: using the analog stick in Tony Hawk.
Speaker 1: I'd rather do right the Cube that one.
Speaker 4: I I agree with only fighting game I do the
Speaker 4: analog stick for generally is soul Caliber. I like the
Speaker 4: pad for Teking, I like the bad for obviously World
Speaker 4: Combat and stuff, but yeah, sole Caliber feels like you
Speaker 4: don't have that three D.
Speaker 7: I was using the analog stick for like two D
Speaker 7: fighting games, and then I was told that's that's not right.
Speaker 7: So I learned dpad and the rights better. But I
Speaker 7: was trying to learn Zangie Moore and so you fighter
Speaker 7: six on the switch to for fun, Yeah, that's you
Speaker 7: can make that work because because I heard you know
Speaker 7: it's supposed to do the full circle. Well actually, and
Speaker 7: it's hard because whenever you do that, you just jump
Speaker 7: when you get to the up inputs. And I saw
Speaker 7: a video that explained to me, oh, you don't actually
Speaker 7: to do that. You can just go from right. You
Speaker 7: can go from like the three o'clock to the was
Speaker 7: it to the ten o'clock kind of frame share, and
Speaker 7: that'll actually be good enough to register as the full circle.
Speaker 7: But the dpad I still always jump, but I did
Speaker 7: with the analog stick at least on the switch to
Speaker 7: I was getting that grapple.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's something out every.
Speaker 1: Time, So maybe for a grappler.
Speaker 7: Analog stick is still okay, the uh.
Speaker 2: The poll is up in Twitch and I want to
Speaker 2: remind people don't lie in these poles. If you are
Speaker 2: just trying to make me mad, but it's working, stop it.
Speaker 1: Oh no, oh no, what are they saying? I can't
Speaker 1: see it.
Speaker 7: I think a lot more people use again, there's a
Speaker 7: little a little bit of a generational thing there because.
Speaker 3: The analog stick than you would think.
Speaker 4: I don't know if there's a generational thing or a
Speaker 4: Kyla thing, but like a couple of years ago, I
Speaker 4: told Kayla, She's like, how do you do this thing
Speaker 4: in this game? Kayla is a better gamer than most
Speaker 4: of us on this call, definitely better than me. She's
Speaker 4: been playing since the Super Nintendo. And I told her like, oh,
Speaker 4: PRES's up on the dpad and she's like, what's.
Speaker 1: The d pad? That might be Kayla kala thing?
Speaker 3: Okay, knowing what the deep ed is okay, Kayla.
Speaker 5: Okay, dib nose.
Speaker 3: It's a smart Well it's probably because I told him.
Speaker 1: But well, the six and eight year old book just
Speaker 1: plenty through the deepad.
Speaker 3: Three. I mean, you know, yeah, it could be. You
Speaker 3: know a lot of things are k.
Speaker 1: You're the same age. Okay, yeah, yeah, does that?
Speaker 3: Does that feel good or bad? But I don't know.
Speaker 1: Actually, I actually don't know. I'm gonna nritate.
Speaker 3: She might be thirty two.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, all right. I feel like I'm caught
Speaker 1: in like a maze of my own making, just like
Speaker 1: I've been playing maze mice.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: This is a new game from I believe the developers
Speaker 1: of Luck be a laenlord to this imagine is a
Speaker 1: pac Man like because you were navigating through a maze
Speaker 1: and you were collecting pellets, but also elements of.
Speaker 3: Super Hot where time is moving when.
Speaker 1: You are moving, so if you are standing still idle,
Speaker 1: time is not going down, so no one is chasing you.
Speaker 1: But that also means your abilities are not popping off.
Speaker 1: And speaking about abilities, this is where you throw in
Speaker 1: perhaps comparisons to Vampire Survivors, because you are navigating through
Speaker 1: a maze and these as a mouse and these kiddies
Speaker 1: are chasing you. As you pass by them, you activate them.
Speaker 1: So you're collecting your power pellet adjacent orbs or whatever,
Speaker 1: and those are your XP. As you collect those, you
Speaker 1: wake up cats and your different abilities will take care
Speaker 1: of the cats, so you lay down like a trail
Speaker 1: of fire or you're shooting knitting needles, and those abilities
Speaker 1: are popping off on timers which you can kind of
Speaker 1: fudge around with and set off at specific times if
Speaker 1: you are moving or not moving, because the game, just
Speaker 1: like Vampire Survivors, will get quickly populated with a bunch
Speaker 1: of enemies on screen, so you do have to kind
Speaker 1: of be wary of like, oh, hey, I have this
Speaker 1: ability that it is like an AOI attack around me,
Speaker 1: and these enemies that don't obey movement wise by the maze,
Speaker 1: like they're going over the walls, are about to get me.
Speaker 1: But if I just kind of like fludge around for
Speaker 1: like a second or two, I can wind up getting
Speaker 1: them in the blast radius as well as the cat's
Speaker 1: chasing me. It's a real neat idea. I really dig
Speaker 1: it a lot. I've only spent a little bit of
Speaker 1: time with it, but it feels like it has potentially
Speaker 1: has the depth of something like Vampire Survivors. I'm curious
Speaker 1: to see if there are different mice in the game
Speaker 1: where they're different abilities that pop up.
Speaker 4: I'm looking at images of this right now. Is this
Speaker 4: a roguelight rodents Revenge.
Speaker 1: I don't know what rodents Revenge is, but sure it is.
Speaker 5: A potential recognition there on the Windows oper system.
Speaker 3: I just laugh because that's a funny sentence you to.
Speaker 3: Is it a choo choo.
Speaker 1: Rocket like at all? No, I see where the chew
Speaker 1: cheo rocket comparisons would be because of the mice the maze,
Speaker 1: but you are you are controlling the mouse instead of
Speaker 1: like having them obey a specific maze order or whatever.
Speaker 3: So it's a more pack man. Yeah. Yeah, then it's chasing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm begging in a lot. Maybe we'll do a
Speaker 1: quick look this week.
Speaker 3: Damn, what is Rodent's Revenge?
Speaker 5: It was one of those that was just on like
Speaker 5: some Windows game packs. I google it.
Speaker 4: It was like it might have been three point one
Speaker 4: or maybe ninety eight or ninety five.
Speaker 3: Maybe it was on.
Speaker 4: Where you're a rodent and there's cheese you gotta get
Speaker 4: to and you're pushing blocks around.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, right, challenge like revenge like but yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: dang that that looks old ass.
Speaker 3: Fuck.
Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, you gotta avoid the cats.
Speaker 3: Yeah wow, okay, I remember I.
Speaker 2: Have played a game and have no one mentioned that
Speaker 2: game until thirty years later, you're on a podcast.
Speaker 3: And someone says it, that's weird.
Speaker 4: Chad says, how the fuck do you remember that? And
Speaker 4: no other human knowledge.
Speaker 1: That upset you?
Speaker 7: Jeff, analog stick won the poll forty seven to forty five.
Speaker 3: That gets about it. It lost time. That's a statistical time.
Speaker 4: I just want to chat say, they use analog even
Speaker 4: for two D platformers, and that is fucked.
Speaker 1: Okay, some platformers I'll use it, some of them.
Speaker 4: I mean you, like, it's not three with a fucking
Speaker 4: week class contour.
Speaker 3: What are you talking about? Yes, obviously stuff that's like,
Speaker 3: you know, built from that time of dpads. It does
Speaker 3: seem a little weird, but if it works, it works.
Speaker 3: Who cares?
Speaker 1: Did you all ever watch Furiosa?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I know.
Speaker 1: So there's a character in that who has like tattoos
Speaker 1: all over his body and he's kind of like this
Speaker 1: living book of like sharing knowledge.
Speaker 3: I would love like Memento to kind of.
Speaker 1: I would love to see Dan's version of that of
Speaker 1: like what facts will Dantine.
Speaker 3: Were? All wrestling and games like his Mowana tattoos?
Speaker 4: You mean, yes, nothing but wrestling games and maybe like
Speaker 4: Independence Day the movie.
Speaker 3: What I don't know, I just trying to think of
Speaker 3: something I like as a kid. I don't talk about
Speaker 3: that movie that much.
Speaker 5: Maybe not, Maybe it's more of the rock and face
Speaker 5: off and stuff.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like there was a brief period where
Speaker 4: I wanted to get an I D for custom license plate.
Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, I just can't.
Speaker 7: Wait till like people are like it's the apocalypse that
Speaker 7: go up to day, like Dan, how.
Speaker 1: Do we grow food?
Speaker 7: We forget we need this IFO It's like, I can't
Speaker 7: tell you that, but let me tell you about the
Speaker 7: Blue Meani's one first w W appearance.
Speaker 4: He was with gold Dust right there, say Valentine's Da
Speaker 4: Mask or nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 1: Tell you I can't tell you about corn but Chucky
Speaker 1: ducky quack quack. Well, yeah, it's weird that as the
Speaker 1: years go on, Independence Day of the movie just sort
Speaker 1: of doesn't seem so bad.
Speaker 3: Oh you like the reality? Yeah, like I just feel
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like first for me, it
Speaker 3: was always like, oh, children are men. That seems real.
Speaker 3: It seems real bad.
Speaker 1: And we're getting there, I mean a Handmaid's Tail. We're
Speaker 1: we're almost yeah.
Speaker 3: One hundred, but just you know, comparatively speaking, it's sort
Speaker 3: of like, alrighty four, we was kind of.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: We came together, we make out in the end, get
Speaker 3: on the hood and tell them how to take these
Speaker 3: sense of bitches down right.
Speaker 2: It's like it was this fantasy of like there was
Speaker 2: ever this global threatening event or a virus, we would
Speaker 2: all come together and then maybe.
Speaker 3: That happened and we didn't.
Speaker 4: We hacked the aliens, Yeah we did.
Speaker 3: We get them. We get him the m R DNA virus.
Speaker 3: There's so many one liners out of that movie I ever.
Speaker 5: Saw in the sequel.
Speaker 2: I know, I kind of like the sequel gold Boom
Speaker 2: is in the sequel. Really yes, that movie is the
Speaker 2: most made by ten set movie ever made, and it
Speaker 2: kind of rules for it. It's like you could just
Speaker 2: feel like China's like I like this, let's put that movie,
Speaker 2: and I'm kind of like China, You're up to something.
Speaker 5: It's like gun Maverick.
Speaker 3: They love that. Yeah, who exactly is great Spiner back? Right? Oh?
Speaker 3: They did? Yes they did? Yeah? Good good?
Speaker 1: He did?
Speaker 5: Was he not a zeppelp proof glass?
Speaker 4: No, sir, Oh no he he They pushed him against
Speaker 4: the glass, and then again.
Speaker 3: We don't. We don't actually for sure know he died
Speaker 3: is kind of what they did the scientistic he's very dead. Yeah,
Speaker 3: also invited. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love that scene where
Speaker 3: like the I guess he's like the Secretary of Defense.
Speaker 3: He's talking to Bill Pulman about Area fifty one and
Speaker 3: he's just like, that's not entire. That guy's the best
Speaker 3: sibling like in a movie ever died recently. A lot
Speaker 3: of those guys.
Speaker 7: When they made that Independent State sequel, it was like,
Speaker 7: we can't get Will Smith today.
Speaker 3: They would absolutely be able to get if they wanted him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the word his downfall, who's like started the same
Speaker 4: day he won the oscar.
Speaker 3: Like a media a weird day for that guy on
Speaker 3: door energy in one door out the other.
Speaker 2: For sure, an Independence State sequel is like a bad
Speaker 2: Fast than the Furious, and.
Speaker 1: You worst Fast than the Furious is a cinematic masterpiece.
Speaker 3: Well yeah yeah, but like if there was a bad one.
Speaker 1: It would be Independent States kind of like it, Grub,
Speaker 1: I've been meaning to talk to you about this. I
Speaker 1: haven't seen the f one movie, but people like it. Right,
Speaker 1: he want zero bad and he it's the same director
Speaker 1: as Maverick, Right, that's right, Yes, and yeah oblivion. Yeah, totally.
Speaker 3: Let's Jokazinski.
Speaker 1: Let's force him to make a pod racing movie.
Speaker 3: Okay, now that would go at any moment. We can't
Speaker 3: be more than two years away from a pod racing movie.
Speaker 2: Right, Greenland, maybe from actually being made. No way, right,
Speaker 2: that's exactly right. Why it's a curse franchise right now,
Speaker 2: they can't even get any movie made.
Speaker 7: I think ninety percent of the movies that they have
Speaker 7: like not just like announced to the public and a
Speaker 7: meetingful meaningful. Star Wars, Yeah, there's that Ryan Johnson trilogy,
Speaker 7: there was some like a public thing. There was a
Speaker 7: rope Squadron movie. A lot of them just don't get made.
Speaker 7: You think Starfighter remember they announced that. You think that's
Speaker 7: gonna be a real movie? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Come round? That's yeah right, godzy he did it, No,
Speaker 1: actually ask.
Speaker 3: Him to be That movie is gonna be.
Speaker 1: God. I feel like there's just like a great lamity
Speaker 1: happening with with Star Wars right now, just like there's
Speaker 1: one happening in high Roll. You've been playing Breath of
Speaker 1: the Wild.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm I'm killing a little bit of time here
Speaker 7: until the bonanza. So I was doing a switch one
Speaker 7: greatest hits thing. I started a Mario Odyssey playthrough rip
Speaker 7: before Switch two came out. I was like, this is
Speaker 7: gonna be my last Switch one game, and I'm like, boy,
Speaker 7: this game is still amazing.
Speaker 1: And then you know, take it.
Speaker 3: I beat.
Speaker 1: I was spending a lot of Platoon stuff.
Speaker 7: I'm taking a little break there before I do the
Speaker 7: side order, which is the Platoon three DLC. So I
Speaker 7: went back to Odyssey just ran through that campaign. Still
Speaker 7: one of the greatest games ever.
Speaker 1: Like, that game does look very good.
Speaker 7: Switcheo, that game looks pretty good Switch one though, honestly,
Speaker 7: kind of hard to tell the improvements. I'm sure they're there,
Speaker 7: probably the wild though starting that up, it is just
Speaker 7: so weird seeing that game at sixty franks per second.
Speaker 7: It's weird, like looking not quite as fuzzy and whatnot.
Speaker 7: It it looks I'm not going to do it a take
Speaker 7: my breath away, Puy and I swear, but it looks so.
Speaker 2: Good now well on Switch one and it's a thirty
Speaker 2: in best case scenario. And then you go to Coca
Speaker 2: Rico Village, Cocaico Village and if we don't.
Speaker 5: Know, it's like, oh, I know that about like breth Wall,
Speaker 5: I mean odesty.
Speaker 1: Oh no, honestly, it was only sixty No, yeah, I.
Speaker 5: Say, yeah, okay, okay, perfect, Yeah, you know broth the Wild.
Speaker 3: There is night and day different on switch to. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I played a little of Tears of the Kingdom on
Speaker 3: switch To. It was the first thing I've done on
Speaker 3: switch To since I got it. And it feels like
Speaker 3: you're playing it on something you're not supposed to be.
Speaker 5: You're emulating it on a steam deck.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeaheah, you know, And I'm looking behind me. I'm like,
Speaker 3: is this cool? Am I doing this? All right? It's
Speaker 3: really good? Unfortunately I hadn't played it in two years,
Speaker 3: and I am all kind of turned around. Well, you
Speaker 3: use the Zelda notes thing, I know. I just I
Speaker 3: don't is that like as elegant of a thing that
Speaker 3: as I wanted to be like, it works pretty well,
Speaker 3: yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: But elegans not the word.
Speaker 3: It's like it's like a wrecking ball, break.
Speaker 2: Through your balls, Like did you know this about that?
Speaker 3: I'm like, holy shit, I just have to like let
Speaker 3: go and do that because I'm probably only like halfway
Speaker 3: through that game and I just need to like use
Speaker 3: this easy pass, you know, just.
Speaker 2: Use the easy pass, use a guy to like kind
Speaker 2: of get pointed in the right direction again, and then
Speaker 2: just go choose something and start doing it.
Speaker 4: And shoot, yeah, I had the thing where it's like
Speaker 4: I was like, Okay, I didn't get every shrine and
Speaker 4: tears the Kingdom, so I should do that for the
Speaker 4: switch too, And I hop back into my save there
Speaker 4: and it's just like, man, I'm looking around.
Speaker 5: It's like there's the whole the abyss.
Speaker 4: There's I am totally lost as far as like, who
Speaker 4: are these fuckers following me around?
Speaker 5: All these ghosts?
Speaker 4: Like, and I'm just like it through me in the
Speaker 4: middle of all this stuff, and I was like, I
Speaker 4: think I'd rather maybe just start a fresh Breath the
Speaker 4: Wild save on this thing. So that's where I'm leaning
Speaker 4: right now on this.
Speaker 7: And that's what I did, and I'm glad I did,
Speaker 7: because well, that's so very good video game. It turns
Speaker 7: out awesome even just starting from like string from zero,
Speaker 7: starting naked in a pool and then slowly getting those
Speaker 7: abilities and you know that great plateau is such a
Speaker 7: good tutorial area.
Speaker 3: But then you get out there and it's.
Speaker 7: Just off to the races, right, and yep, That's where
Speaker 7: I am now, just going through the shine shines and
Speaker 7: find a cool stuff, like just the adrenaline rush I
Speaker 7: get from going to shrine and getting a bandana that
Speaker 7: increases my climbing speed or whatever. I'm like, oh baby,
Speaker 7: let's go. That's a good feeling.
Speaker 3: Damn.
Speaker 1: I'm just remembering the Dragon sequence and Tears of the Kingdom, like.
Speaker 3: The last one.
Speaker 5: Incredible.
Speaker 1: Fuck Jesus Christ, what a game man. Wow Wow. You know,
Speaker 1: the Quorrocks always reminded me of I mean, there were
Speaker 1: a bunch of weird little freaks, but they reminded me
Speaker 1: of the little dudes and freaks even pat Upon one
Speaker 1: plus two replay Grub and Minata.
Speaker 2: You've been playing this, Mike, I'm having a What's the
Speaker 2: What's the Dog game? The Capcom game where I couldn't
Speaker 2: draw straight line O com Okami.
Speaker 1: I'm having an O comedy situation.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I swear to God, I'm hitting the right
Speaker 2: buttons on the right rhythm, and I'm good at rhythm games.
Speaker 3: I'm like decent rhythm games.
Speaker 2: I can't get past the tutorial, like I'm gonna upload
Speaker 2: this and eras dem Takashi shame because I cannot get
Speaker 2: past like the second thing, I'm like, incredible, am I
Speaker 2: am I missing something? It's a similar path upon, and
Speaker 2: I'm doing that right every time. It's not taking grub.
Speaker 3: I'm with you.
Speaker 4: I that was my experience with all the patapons. Like
Speaker 4: I love the look and vibe of it and everything,
Speaker 4: but like I sucked ass at those games, so I
Speaker 4: don't get it.
Speaker 1: I can do the pad Upon. Here's my thing.
Speaker 7: I love the way Pata Pond looks. I respect the
Speaker 7: how of it. I think it's so cool with such
Speaker 7: a neat idea.
Speaker 3: But when I'm actually playing it though a little.
Speaker 7: Bit, like play thirty minutes, so I got's enough pad
Speaker 7: Upon for now.
Speaker 3: But you know what, I'll say this because something.
Speaker 7: About like just the setup of the game and everything,
Speaker 7: it feels like it should be a second screen game.
Speaker 7: But because it's so rhythm basi, it's hard to second
Speaker 7: screen a game. Like yeah, right, maybe that's a little
Speaker 7: bit of my hangup. I'm not giving pat Upon the
Speaker 7: resp that it deserves, and when I do make it
Speaker 7: the only thing I'm focusing on, I get kind of
Speaker 7: bored a little bit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I was kind of getting the sense
Speaker 2: of my I like the way this looks, but is
Speaker 2: there more to it? And I've looked into pad upon before.
Speaker 2: I think I would probably agree with you on that
Speaker 2: it's not like an Elite Beat Agents for me.
Speaker 7: I mean, I don't think I think it's a good game,
Speaker 7: just one of tho things where it's like, it's not
Speaker 7: super for me.
Speaker 1: I love the style of it.
Speaker 7: I love that they did something weird and different, and
Speaker 7: I think that aspect of it holds up tremendously.
Speaker 1: Still.
Speaker 7: Uh so, if you like Patapon, we're checking this compilation
Speaker 7: out if you're curious look at it. I am still
Speaker 7: so weirded out by the whole like so meat PlayStation
Speaker 7: thing just not being here, like you would have to
Speaker 7: pry an ip from Nintendo's cold dead hands, right, He's
Speaker 7: Sony like, ooh, if we don't publish this, well we'll
Speaker 7: save a little bit of money.
Speaker 3: That's yeah, that's simple.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yamamuchi to haunt you even if you did get
Speaker 2: it legally from Nintendo.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's it's weird.
Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to stop necessarily either, is
Speaker 2: Loco Roco that's the that's the motion one.
Speaker 1: Right, local.
Speaker 4: I mean you would do the I think they had
Speaker 4: the initure one was L and R on the PSP, right,
Speaker 4: then they put out one that us like maybe the
Speaker 4: PS fours motion, which makes perfect sense, and that's how
Speaker 4: they did an asbot to, right, That's.
Speaker 2: How I'm log Yeah, that's one. I'm like that could
Speaker 2: probably be on Switch as well.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: If that's not, I'm not even like a slightly bigger one. Mike,
Speaker 2: what's the three D platforming Vita series you really liked? Uh?
Speaker 2: With the Rush Gravity Rush feels you're not doing anything
Speaker 2: with Gravity Rush remaster.
Speaker 3: That switch Away, right, yeah, hair Away exactly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope they kind of do all those and
Speaker 2: really that just leads to them to getting less precious
Speaker 2: about all their other games, and then maybe at that
Speaker 2: point they.
Speaker 1: Do actually to be glad.
Speaker 7: I know you guys have, but like I'm not saying, like,
Speaker 7: I can't believe PlayStation is putting it's i PM no switch, No,
Speaker 7: I can't believe that they're just not putting the PlayStation
Speaker 7: name like in the it or anywhere.
Speaker 3: Published that published it.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, let's still it's the PlayStation game and play
Speaker 2: they still own it. They didn't like sell it didn't
Speaker 2: lapse it's just they're letting someone else publish it, so yeah, weird.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of I'm pretty excited for the spiritual successor
Speaker 1: of Pets upon Ratatan. I believe it's called Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: those freaks look like they got better clothing. Folks at home,
Speaker 1: Here is your spoiler warning, Jeff Beckeler. This is also
Speaker 1: your spoiler warning if you want to avoid some uh
Speaker 1: ending spoilers like game spoilers or Claire Obscure Expedition thirty three.
Speaker 1: We will talk about it until the break, so we'll
Speaker 1: see you.
Speaker 3: Have you been what's wrong? You can wait? No, wait
Speaker 3: one more side? Please? Yeah, you can have you can
Speaker 3: eat granola sooner. No, it's not about the granola. Jan
Speaker 3: It's never about the granola. I I think I'm right
Speaker 3: at the end of this game. I'm I'm inside the
Speaker 3: monolith okay, and I'm fighting Renoir okay, and he turned
Speaker 3: into a dragon. You're close. It's like a big wolf monster.
Speaker 3: Just having a problem with that fight. I like, I'm
Speaker 3: just not doing there.
Speaker 1: You'll get there.
Speaker 3: I know. I've only tried it like five times, and
Speaker 3: it's been like a week and a half since I've
Speaker 3: tried it again.
Speaker 7: It's always hard when you're going to like a vacation.
Speaker 7: He takes some time off to jump back in for sure.
Speaker 3: Chuck just DMed me and goes take your headphones off. Yeah, because,
Speaker 3: all right, I will bail for this because I am
Speaker 3: that emotionally invested into this French game.
Speaker 7: You should bail any French ass game. I know doesn't care,
Speaker 7: but I'm gonna make it bail anyways.
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, all right, so just you know, I don't know,
Speaker 3: clap hands or yeah, well we'll.
Speaker 1: We'll fade the black and then I'll I'll holler at
Speaker 1: you guys.
Speaker 3: Look at a drink. Okay, cool? Should we save it?
Speaker 3: I would love to be clear. I would love to
Speaker 3: spoil something.
Speaker 4: I got something I can say that kind of dances
Speaker 4: around things a little bit while they're here. You should
Speaker 4: take your your okay, all right, then I'll just I'll
Speaker 4: spill it here.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I've been thinking a lot about whether fantasy can affect reality.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, happy but happy.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, it is.
Speaker 7: It is kind of also one of the major one
Speaker 7: of the game, really is.
Speaker 5: But this one did it at the end when I
Speaker 5: already liked it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, at the end, I didn't realize what was going
Speaker 4: on when it's like you're making your choice. Uh, for
Speaker 4: those that don't know what I'm referencing metaphor, ask you
Speaker 4: that question at the beginning, like twelve minutes in and I
Speaker 4: was like, oh, fuck you, you pretend to strass whole game.
Speaker 5: And I stopped playing this one. It was at the
Speaker 5: end and I was like, that's profound.
Speaker 1: That's incredible.
Speaker 5: So you got my l or what's your Alissa? What's
Speaker 5: your real name?
Speaker 4: Her name is she was still my out to meet, Yeah,
Speaker 4: Alyssa or something. Yeah. She had this very traumatic event
Speaker 4: in her real life. It turns out her her house
Speaker 4: burns down, her brother dies, and her mom's you know,
Speaker 4: in a bad spot and everything, and she retreats into
Speaker 4: this fictional world that actually I used think her mom painted,
Speaker 4: but it was actually Versa as a kid that painted it, right.
Speaker 4: So I started the camps and the mom kept it going.
Speaker 4: So she found safety and comfort in her fictional characters
Speaker 4: to distract her from horror her traumatic real life. And
Speaker 4: then at the end, you got to face this, uh,
Speaker 4: this question of like do I want to stay?
Speaker 5: And it's a red pill blue pill.
Speaker 4: Thing, you know, it's like, do I want to stay
Speaker 4: in this fiction a world where things are cozy and.
Speaker 5: But they're fantasy.
Speaker 1: It's fake.
Speaker 5: It's it's these are sale people, you know.
Speaker 7: That's okay, that's yeah, that's so interesting that there's these
Speaker 7: two endings. And I saw both of the endings, right,
Speaker 7: It's like, at first I picked that my O ending,
Speaker 7: this will be the happy ending, and it seems like
Speaker 7: it should be happy, but then it's like, oh, the
Speaker 7: vibe is not good.
Speaker 4: Actually really quick thoughlet me the reason I would have
Speaker 4: picked the Versa ending if, like I think in my head,
Speaker 4: I thought that her real life was much more like
Speaker 4: I thought the house was in cinders. I thought the
Speaker 4: mom's like face was collapsed in and everyone.
Speaker 5: Was just like it was just off.
Speaker 4: But it's like, oh no, you see in the Versa
Speaker 4: ending that like, oh okay, it's like no, she's you know,
Speaker 4: she's got scars and she can't talk, and like they're
Speaker 4: all very sad obviously, but like there is a life
Speaker 4: to return to. I thought it was smoldering wreckage of
Speaker 4: a family in the house. Otherwise, I probably would have
Speaker 4: picked the Versa one because I thought it was like
Speaker 4: beyond saving. But then I saw the verse ending, I
Speaker 4: was like, oh, okay, you got to deal with your
Speaker 4: grief and you got process that.
Speaker 7: You know, it's good because it's not like good ending
Speaker 7: bad ending. Right, There's downsides the both, and some of
Speaker 7: it depends on what you think. Like, you know, you say, oh,
Speaker 7: these aren't real people, and I think for some people
Speaker 7: like no who says that, I think that Lune and
Speaker 7: them are real and it's kind of like, ah, but
Speaker 7: what if they aren't, because maybe they're not real people.
Speaker 7: You can have an argument both ways. But I think
Speaker 7: that so much of that game is about how we
Speaker 7: handle grief. I think some of it is because at
Speaker 7: the end of so many of these games, these big RPGs,
Speaker 7: I do kind of have this like, oh, I can't
Speaker 7: I'm leaving these characters behind, and I'm like kind of
Speaker 7: sad about that.
Speaker 3: Now I'm bummed down the real.
Speaker 7: World and I almost kind of take this as like
Speaker 7: a slap against that, where it's kind of like, wake up,
Speaker 7: do fist, you had fun?
Speaker 1: These aren't real people. Go out back to your family. Right.
Speaker 7: It even kind of goes into like the idea of
Speaker 7: video games and fiction as escapism and how sometimes that's
Speaker 7: powerful but sometimes it clearly goes too far. It is
Speaker 7: like that thing about you know, like than the ka
Speaker 7: generic story about the guy who stopped going to college
Speaker 7: and talked to his family because he played World of
Speaker 7: Warcraft things like that, and this kind of stuff is
Speaker 7: going to become more important as we see all these
Speaker 7: companies being like, we're going to bring back your dead ones,
Speaker 7: says Ai.
Speaker 1: We aren't going to.
Speaker 7: See people who just do nothing but stare at their
Speaker 7: computer screen whatever talking to an AI version of their
Speaker 7: dead son, and it's gonna be sat in tragic and
Speaker 7: these are these are real life situations that we're all
Speaker 7: gonna be dealing with now. Uh so, yeah, I just
Speaker 7: I don't know. I thought the ending and the way
Speaker 7: that they are the whole, the way the game is
Speaker 7: handling these issues and bringing up these themes was incredible.
Speaker 4: I loved it, and I was kind of surprised because
Speaker 4: like the fire escape that went up yesterday, I was
Speaker 4: talking to Mahardi about it because I was like, basically
Speaker 4: where Backler is where I was like in the Monolith,
Speaker 4: and I was really hot on the game, and Maharty
Speaker 4: didn't tell me specifics, but he's like, oh yeah, I
Speaker 4: was really hot on it where you are, but basically
Speaker 4: right past where you're at. That's when he kind of
Speaker 4: turned around and didn't like it, and I was like, oh, man,
Speaker 4: I guess they don't stick the ending.
Speaker 5: And then I played the rest of it. I was like,
Speaker 5: I this, Yeah, what is the general or people?
Speaker 3: Generally? People are upset up.
Speaker 1: I feel like their scuttle but online is not upset.
Speaker 1: But like, I think they wanted a happy ending and
Speaker 1: they don't want to come to terms with like the
Speaker 1: reality that like, oh, these characters that I spent X
Speaker 1: amount of time with may not be real. I feel
Speaker 1: like it's the whole uh tightest problem from Final Fantasy
Speaker 1: ten of like.
Speaker 3: Wait, I wasn't the main character. I'm not important. I think.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think a lot of people do like the ending,
Speaker 7: but I think there is there is a people who
Speaker 7: do kind of feel like they're not getting the pathos.
Speaker 7: They're not getting that kind of feeling they went to
Speaker 7: at the end, uh because they did just want to
Speaker 7: like bring back Gustaf and his girlfriend and you know,
Speaker 7: everything to be happy. I think it's I think it's
Speaker 7: kind of brave and interesting that it doesn't let.
Speaker 3: You have that.
Speaker 7: It's like Actually this is all pretty fucked up and
Speaker 7: there's no right way. And like for Mayo specific Alicia,
Speaker 7: it's like, well, you can live in your fantasy world
Speaker 7: as long as that's gonna last. It turns out maybe
Speaker 7: you're torturing what remains of your brothers, so to keep
Speaker 7: that going. But at least you're you know, this guy
Speaker 7: who's maybe real or isn't is back, or you can
Speaker 7: go back to the real life, which is definitely real
Speaker 7: and you definitely have family there. Sorry that you can't
Speaker 7: talk more, right, So it's just all kinds of messed
Speaker 7: up not yet not yet bachal are.
Speaker 4: They're They're both very bittersweet and fucked up, and like
Speaker 4: you said, there's not a good or a bad ending.
Speaker 4: It's just like I really thought it was fascinating and
Speaker 4: I was fully expecting as it went on that it
Speaker 4: was going to go into like just you know, really
Speaker 4: abstract like I'm not following anything the type of deal.
Speaker 4: But like, I only got more into it as I played,
Speaker 4: and I actually really liked these characters a lot. And yeah,
Speaker 4: I did not fall off at all. Yeah I didn't
Speaker 4: fucking dodge once. Hell yeah, one of the bigger I
Speaker 4: was about to fall in top me and that I
Speaker 4: was already got that. Oh yeah, yeah, of course, but no,
Speaker 4: that is I am so glad that people were so
Speaker 4: loud about how good this game is, because certainly one
Speaker 4: that if it was just kind of like under the radar,
Speaker 4: I wouldn't have checked out.
Speaker 5: But I fucking loved this game.
Speaker 1: Dan, I'm curious, what was it about this specific story.
Speaker 1: Was it like the on ramp before, like they kind
Speaker 1: of get to the foofy, fluffy bullshit. I thought this
Speaker 1: did it for you?
Speaker 4: Or I just thought even like people describing the concept
Speaker 4: to me, I thought was so interesting. I'm just like
Speaker 4: painting the number and then the gomage stuff and everything,
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, that's cool. I don't think I've
Speaker 4: seen anything quite like that in the game. And the
Speaker 4: fact that it's like it's not I guess it is
Speaker 4: fantasy in a way, but it's like I just get
Speaker 4: so tired of just like, oh, there's an evil king
Speaker 4: and here's the kingdom and the dragons or magic or whatever.
Speaker 4: It's like I just didn't like and learn of the rings,
Speaker 4: didn't like any like, I just don't like that trope,
Speaker 4: except for in the times where I do like Zelden
Speaker 4: Game of Thrones.
Speaker 5: But you mean I mean, yeah, yeah, but this just
Speaker 5: felt different.
Speaker 4: This felt very different in a way where I was like,
Speaker 4: I want to see what's going on with this very
Speaker 4: friendly glad I did because it's it's a tremendous fucking
Speaker 4: game and.
Speaker 7: They could have so easily just ended it like you
Speaker 7: killed the Patriss. You did it right, and I'm glad
Speaker 7: that it goes beyond that, right. Yes, yeah, there are
Speaker 7: like some things like here and there that like are
Speaker 7: so a little weird, Like you can have an optional
Speaker 7: conversation between Versa Mayo where me he's like you you
Speaker 7: didn't say Gustav on purpose?
Speaker 3: Huh?
Speaker 7: And he's like you got me and she's immed like
Speaker 7: I forgive you.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I do.
Speaker 7: But again, like gu back to like, well are these
Speaker 7: real people?
Speaker 3: Are they? I don't know.
Speaker 7: It's super fascinating. We should do a bigger spoiler cast
Speaker 7: some day.
Speaker 4: Dan one more thing Chance, says bet. Dan was a
Speaker 4: huge Monico fan. Fuck Monico. I didn't use him why
Speaker 4: I'd played him a few times. I don't know about
Speaker 4: your weird taking legs level up system. I don't like
Speaker 4: that you're weird ass like dog flag face whatever it is,
Speaker 4: he's fucking weird.
Speaker 5: I didn't even talk to that guy.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 7: I didn't use him because just because it's like he
Speaker 7: has to be in battle to collect the feet.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, well, I'm either going to commit to
Speaker 3: this or I'm not. I guess, And I is a
Speaker 3: good dude.
Speaker 7: I likes a buddy who was your party Dan for the.
Speaker 5: Almost always cl VERSU.
Speaker 3: And I did Mayel Lou never so.
Speaker 1: Una never left my party ever, you know what, And
Speaker 1: I'll let the internet decide why she never left my party.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I am excited to have a proper spoiler
Speaker 1: cast once back Lars finished it, we'll see whether or
Speaker 1: not grub we'll make it on that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe we should get like one of the people
Speaker 7: don't like the ending because I am more curious, like, uh,
Speaker 7: I would like to I hear that perspective, and I
Speaker 7: don't think I want to talk to them out of it.
Speaker 7: But I guess I am more curious, Uh why because
Speaker 7: I don't. I just think it's so interesting where it
Speaker 7: goes in next three and I think it has such neat,
Speaker 7: important and neat things to say as a consequence.
Speaker 3: Of that.
Speaker 7: Yes, a lot of Sean doesn't like the ending either.
Speaker 7: That's right, Sean beat the game.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I'm curious knowing that Shawn's pedigree with jerrpg's
Speaker 1: as well, why why he did not like the ending?
Speaker 1: I god is one of those. This is a fucking
Speaker 1: banger of a game. Huh.
Speaker 4: It's so freaking good we have Sean on I can
Speaker 4: explain JRPGs to him.
Speaker 1: Very good. There we go, folks. That does it for

Speaker 4: I got an email during the break. Here I will

Speaker 4: following last week's sudden tariff changes, Analog three D will
Speaker 4: begin shipping next month. We're absorbing the costs. Your pre
Speaker 4: order price day is the same, no additional charges. We
Speaker 4: port everything in the Antaect three D. Can't wait for you

Speaker 3: Games for you. Bu thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5: I'm excited sixty four we'll get to play it again, to.
Speaker 3: Play it again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is uh.
Speaker 3: I paid for this already right a year ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like a year ago, and it was like
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty, which is like a really good
Speaker 2: price now because I think probably is going to be
Speaker 2: more expensive once they get past this initial launch and
Speaker 2: things like that.
Speaker 4: So dumb question like did the tariff stuff, like is
Speaker 4: it gone now? Because I remember it was like it's
Speaker 4: on everything, and then it was like, well no, it's
Speaker 4: on ninety day pause, and now it's like wait, where
Speaker 4: is you?
Speaker 2: Okay, so we got back, we got done with a
Speaker 2: ninety day pause, and everyone's like, oh, he's just gonna
Speaker 2: like let it all go. And he immediately started talking
Speaker 2: about tariffs again. So he really likes tariffs, so they're
Speaker 2: gonna just keep popping up. So they're back. They're not
Speaker 2: as broad as they once were, but he's definitely uh,
Speaker 2: like talking about Taiwan and Vietnam and all this stuff
Speaker 2: like where places where switched twos are made again out
Speaker 2: of it. But he just he legitimately loves them because.
Speaker 3: Vote differently next time, Dan, What can I tell you?
Speaker 3: So one thing that hasn't changed is he's still a
Speaker 3: dumb bitch. Not he's a dumb bitch. Yeah with this. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's real bad.
Speaker 7: Just like mackav it's a virus stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I get his ass. Take hot take.
Speaker 2: Summer Games done quick also raised two point four million dollars.
Speaker 2: Well done to them. The doctors might be able to
Speaker 2: afford borders. Now that's going to be real excellent for them.
Speaker 3: That's a great show.
Speaker 2: Hey, that was It was a really good show. Lots
Speaker 2: of great speed runs there, but they always put on.
Speaker 3: Are Oh my god, I just didn't sorry to interject,
Speaker 3: but Dibb and Eye on Sunday, I think it was
Speaker 3: watched ninety minutes of Mario Brothers three speed running the
Speaker 3: any the one Fortresses and then any Percentage and this
Speaker 3: kid's mind and was blown.
Speaker 5: Does all the context of like the original Mario.
Speaker 3: Three, he's seen it, he's played some of it, and
Speaker 3: I was sort of like, is this the thing that
Speaker 3: gets you to like stop playing Rocket League and like
Speaker 3: go in there. I don't want to stop playing Rocket
Speaker 3: League cause he's very good, but uh yeah, he's He
Speaker 3: just thinks it's crazy that like you can glitch old games.
Speaker 2: He's like, you should show him Summoning Salt for like
Speaker 2: Super Mario Brothers.
Speaker 3: Sure, sure, show my quack shot runs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that'll get it. Show him the Bouncer run.
Speaker 1: His life will be changed in two different ways.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he'll be inspired. I had.
Speaker 7: There's one thing with games on Quick was amazing, a
Speaker 7: ton of great runs. The ae W Fight Forever run
Speaker 7: with like the wrestling style crowd was Yeah, Danny should
Speaker 7: check that out.
Speaker 5: Was it a through the career mode or something?
Speaker 7: Yeah, through career mode. It was a really fun run.
Speaker 7: So that was great. All sorts of good stuff there.
Speaker 7: They That Blue Prince Bingo thing was amazing.
Speaker 3: I love Bingo.
Speaker 1: I did think that Delta.
Speaker 7: Rune was a weird final game for because you know,
Speaker 7: I haven't like, you're.
Speaker 2: Right, they should probably have to get back all that
Speaker 2: money there is.
Speaker 3: I haven't.
Speaker 7: I haven't finished that game, to be clear, But the
Speaker 7: Palper hasn't finished that game.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 7: It's just like I'm not like, I haven't played most
Speaker 7: of that game, becau, I'm waiting for it all to
Speaker 7: come out. So it's like, oh, I guess I'm not
Speaker 7: going to watch the finale because I'm worried about spoilers.
Speaker 3: Uh so new. It was so new and story based.
Speaker 2: Like Delta Rune, that audience and the speed running audience.
Speaker 2: That Vin diagram is a circle. Yeah, I feel like
Speaker 2: so I just think they're like, ah, this is what
Speaker 2: our audience wants.
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Jane Chow from John Bam.
Speaker 1: I don't mean to offend anyone, I swear. I swear
Speaker 1: now within that Ven diagram that is a circle of uh,
Speaker 1: speed runners and people that like Delta Rune Slash Undertail,
Speaker 1: and I haven't played Undertail because the community scares me.
Speaker 1: How much of that intersects with the furry community A
Speaker 1: good bit?
Speaker 3: A good bit? Okay, what about that?
Speaker 7: You don't have to let it look, you don't have
Speaker 7: to interact. I always hear like, oh the Undertail community.
Speaker 7: I played through Undertail and loved it and never had
Speaker 7: to engage with this weird Undertail community.
Speaker 3: That's kind of.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, yeah, I didn't say that I played through
Speaker 4: Undertail was like that was a cool, clever little game.
Speaker 4: And then, uh, I just know that the people that
Speaker 4: are like into it are like into it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Same.
Speaker 2: I beat it and enjoyed it, and yeah, I didn't
Speaker 2: have to interact that audience. I've interacted with some of
Speaker 2: them and a lot of them very pleasant.
Speaker 3: Are the elements to Undertail? Yeah, aren't you just a.
Speaker 1: What's that?
Speaker 7: I mean everybody in that world's a monster, like an
Speaker 7: animal person?
Speaker 1: So oh okay, Well, I feel like I put off
Speaker 1: like Undertail for so long that I would have I
Speaker 1: should play it on a stream, like, God, what's the
Speaker 1: farming game everyone likes? Started starting Valley Stardoo Valley? Uh,
Speaker 1: and I should play that on a stream. And I
Speaker 1: feel like both online communities are very vocal about when
Speaker 1: you're doing something wrong or if I'm not understanding something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, started value one though, like such a like, there's
Speaker 2: so many things they'll just want to help you with
Speaker 2: that will probably be appreciative and under Kelly, it's a
Speaker 2: game you just go experience probably Yeah tell it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, there's kind of like two passing
Speaker 2: and to the game. All I need to know is
Speaker 2: don't be like wishy washy kill some people and spare
Speaker 2: other do well one or the other for everybody.
Speaker 4: I think the thing that got me with it was
Speaker 4: like the same thing that kind of got me with
Speaker 4: Expedition thirty three, where it's like it's turn based, but
Speaker 4: it's like it does fun things during the actual fight
Speaker 4: sometimes instead of picking them from menu, you're like doing
Speaker 4: like a bullet health Like I thought that was so cool.
Speaker 1: It's a really cool system.
Speaker 7: And uh doing the Sands fight, which is like at
Speaker 7: the end of the kill Everything path. That's one of
Speaker 7: the all time great boss fights. That's the one of
Speaker 7: that Meglomania song that everybody loves. Was very difficult, took
Speaker 7: me a couple of days to do it, but it
Speaker 7: was super o.
Speaker 2: Mega guy Kenny Omega come out of Sands one like one.
Speaker 7: Of the first, like aw Halloween shows.
Speaker 3: I remember that. That's right. That was a little dynamite.
Speaker 7: I think it came out to Megamania as the song
Speaker 7: can't Yeah Yes, I And Nintendo Direct is potentially scheduled
Speaker 7: for later this month.
Speaker 3: That's the current rumor.
Speaker 2: They're a rumored to be holding the Direct after Donkey
Speaker 2: Kong Bonanza comes out, but before the end of July.
Speaker 2: Some others were saying this. Nate the Hate backed it up.
Speaker 2: We don't know anything else really beyond this, though, so
Speaker 2: the exact timing hard to say. I would guess maybe
Speaker 2: the last week of July, but.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I haven't heard anything about it direct personally. And then
Speaker 2: like what would.
Speaker 3: Be in there?
Speaker 2: Well, that one's a little bit easier because there's a
Speaker 2: ton of dates. They still got to give us our
Speaker 2: Metroid Prime and all this other stuff. Drag x Drive
Speaker 2: got to release date, but everything else coming this holiday,
Speaker 2: air Riders, Kirby's air Riders, stuff like that.
Speaker 3: We don't know exact.
Speaker 2: Is this a full director, is it a partner director?
Speaker 2: Is it something else? We don't know that either, although
Speaker 2: they have enough to talk about that they probably will
Speaker 2: bring it up at this thing. You know, I serve
Speaker 2: of what. I was not trying to get my hopes
Speaker 2: up for another direct. I probably won't get my hopes
Speaker 2: up for this either, because this is probably is one
Speaker 2: where it's mostly about telling us exact dates for some
Speaker 2: of some games, and then some other third party games
Speaker 2: might get announced or something like that.
Speaker 7: Nate de Hate was also who said that Final Fantasy
Speaker 7: nine remake got derailed and it isn't happening now, So
Speaker 7: I'm gonna choose to not believe that.
Speaker 2: Right, you got to just right exactly everything he says
Speaker 2: has to be a lie, because you need that to
Speaker 2: be a lie exactly.
Speaker 3: I gotta keep my paper house up cool.
Speaker 2: I'll look forward to a direct any chance they could
Speaker 2: have a big game, or like a relatively big game again, there.
Speaker 5: Maybe some game cub of stuff.
Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe we'll get I don't think we're gonna get
Speaker 7: anything bigger than finally seeing that fire Emblem remake that
Speaker 7: we all believe is happening of Okay, that one that's
Speaker 7: pretty big, but yeah, pretty big, pretty big, but not
Speaker 7: like here's the surprise a three D Mario game. His
Speaker 7: coming out this year is though, Monny, think that big
Speaker 7: or even one tier below that? But a tier below
Speaker 7: that big?
Speaker 2: Sure, la bo to Finally we've got to above mar
Speaker 2: You build.
Speaker 3: A saxophone out of cardboard? All right? I love it?
Speaker 3: That sounds amazing.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: Pokemon is teasing next week's Pokemon Presents stream. The stream
Speaker 2: is gonna happen on July twenty seconds, so it's a
Speaker 2: week from today broadcast. It will be broadcasted on the
Speaker 2: Pokemon YouTube channel. Yeah, they're they're teasing it, but really, Jim,
Speaker 2: what do you need from Pokemon these days?
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, Gang, I feel like I might have
Speaker 1: traded in my badges and my poke balls. Sorry, Sonic,
Speaker 1: the Hedgehogs, SpongeBob and Final Fantasy characters and fucking magic
Speaker 1: the gathering. Let's go. You've grown up.
Speaker 3: That's maturity, the true son of puberty.
Speaker 1: Also, the reality is like Pokemon cards are so fucking
Speaker 1: expensive right now that even Barber Jean is out of
Speaker 1: the game. Wow.
Speaker 7: Really, okay, the barber business are on the cards.
Speaker 3: The cards for sure.
Speaker 1: Yo, Okay, there was a stabbing near me because of
Speaker 1: Pokemon cards.
Speaker 3: That's right, did you know what? Like, that's the game
Speaker 3: you're into that, that's that's just the price to pay,
Speaker 3: you know. Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, god, yeah, I don't know. I've been out of
Speaker 1: the Pokemon game. I the Pokemon game that I want
Speaker 1: to see more on is the competitive one that they
Speaker 1: showed that may just be locked to a mobile game
Speaker 1: I always called Champions or something. It's like a one
Speaker 1: that's the only one I care about. I don't I
Speaker 1: don't give a shit about z.
Speaker 2: Ah, well, yeah, he's the one you're probably gonna get
Speaker 2: most of the updates on. I said that seems like
Speaker 2: it's time for them to say exactly when and where
Speaker 2: and how much and all that for that game.
Speaker 1: So yep, that'll probably be I like the.
Speaker 7: Last Legends, I'm hopeful for Za I.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 7: Do you think we see a black and white remake?
Speaker 7: Because announcer, we thought that was gonna happen last time, yeah,
Speaker 7: and then it didn't.
Speaker 2: Well, Ron beginning to just real quick about the timeline.
Speaker 2: Are we in the thirtieth anniversary.
Speaker 3: Year of mans came out in Japan?
Speaker 1: So no?
Speaker 2: Okay, so it's next year, so they could announce it
Speaker 2: for next year, but I don't know.
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem probably red and blue again. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: being said, I do want to go to Pokemon Worlds,
Speaker 1: so that that'd be cool.
Speaker 3: Okay, I should go.
Speaker 1: Let let me commentate if.
Speaker 3: They want to rehook you. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2: Donkey Kong Bananca director says he's aware of occasional performance
Speaker 2: issues and they're prior prioritizing fun. You guys feel like
Speaker 2: this is an actual problem or like Puddle News a
Speaker 2: little bit.
Speaker 7: There's a lot of anxiety online about like I'll play
Speaker 7: the game, then I'll see if I think if it's
Speaker 7: a problem, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4: You know, I played it and I didn't notice it
Speaker 4: while I was playing it, you know, and typically I
Speaker 4: kind of I don't like thirty frames a second if
Speaker 4: it occasionally drops down.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 4: Look, Breath of the Wild, we talked about it before Kykriko
Speaker 4: Village got fucking it chugged, you know, and it's still
Speaker 4: like my favorite game ever. Obviously, in the perfect world,
Speaker 4: I'd love it be a sixty the whole time, but
Speaker 4: I would rather have a full destructible like world than that.
Speaker 2: So yeah, and I kind of want the I don't
Speaker 2: want the limit to be here's the safe zone of
Speaker 2: like what I can destroy. I want them to be like, no,
Speaker 2: you destroy as much as you want, and the game
Speaker 2: might start to slow down because you might go ham
Speaker 2: and we're not going to stop you from doing that.
Speaker 2: So I'm glad that they are prioritizing fund because that's
Speaker 2: to me, that's what that's that's what that means.
Speaker 3: Games out in two days.
Speaker 7: That's why I wonder if there's gonna be any reviews
Speaker 7: or anything like, because it was one thing with Mario Kart,
Speaker 7: and I'm like, are we never gonna get like early
Speaker 7: Nintendo game reviews again with the switch to era.
Speaker 4: I think at the very least, they're being much more
Speaker 4: singy about stuff because I've talked to around people in
Speaker 4: a lot of places and I don't know anyone personally
Speaker 4: that's playing it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're being weirder than even normal as NTINDO with
Speaker 2: the stuff. So it's not just the reviews. They're also
Speaker 2: like still not like readily handing out dev kits to developers,
Speaker 2: Like they're still being weird, like because the system's out now,
Speaker 2: so it's a publicly known factor. Everyone knows what the
Speaker 2: system is, so there's no reason to try to prevent
Speaker 2: as many developers from getting the thing as possible to
Speaker 2: dead kit because you're worried about them leaking something because
Speaker 2: now it's already out there, So what is the reason.
Speaker 2: I think they were like, well, we don't want to
Speaker 2: give it to an unknown developer that might help with
Speaker 2: piracy or something. It's like, well that's a well known
Speaker 2: indie developer. What are you what are you talking about?
Speaker 2: So they are being really weird on that side of things,
Speaker 2: and on the review side, of things. I think they're
Speaker 2: just kind of really shell shocked from the piracy that they
Speaker 2: happened in the last several systems.
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's that, and the you know, the things that
Speaker 7: they consider big leaks, like the amount of cat shines
Speaker 7: in Bowser's theory.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a little weird. Like, I look, they have.
Speaker 7: The right to protect themselves and all this stuff, but
Speaker 7: I kind of wish they would also be aware, like, well,
Speaker 7: there was a lot of piracy and whatnot on the
Speaker 7: Switch one and we still made a zillion dollars. Yeah,
Speaker 7: Like I wish at a certain point they would just
Speaker 7: sort of accept that, Yeah, a little bit that's going
Speaker 7: to happen. It probably won't be as about with the
Speaker 7: switch too, if your architecture is better and protected against that.
Speaker 7: I wish they'd stop making it.
Speaker 3: All of our problems.
Speaker 5: I do think you will see some reviews.
Speaker 4: I don't know, you know, and I am maybe pre
Speaker 4: release even I don't know when the barge would be.
Speaker 4: But like I think it's like very select places and
Speaker 4: the fact that, like you know, we know people at
Speaker 4: a lot of the big places, and a lot of
Speaker 4: the big places didn't get it, So I don't know
Speaker 4: who did.
Speaker 2: So yep, Yeah, I've heard some very like intermittent intermittent
Speaker 2: positive buzz, but and like beyond the previews, but beyond that, like,
Speaker 2: it doesn't seem like anyone really has it for the
Speaker 2: most part, maybe one or two reviews.
Speaker 3: Day we're all in jail together USA today might have
Speaker 3: a review. I don't know.
Speaker 1: That's bananas A.
Speaker 2: Nintendo and Universal are planning a Donkey Kong movie. This
Speaker 2: is one that we kind of felt honestly. It's like,
Speaker 2: didn't the announce that years ago? And that was just
Speaker 2: like an obvious sort of rumor, right, and now it's
Speaker 2: here we are. It's like they have put it into
Speaker 2: like a schedule of assets thing for when they're talking
Speaker 2: to investors. But hey, we're going to be making a
Speaker 2: Donkey Kong movie as well. And this is them in
Speaker 2: Universal Illumination coming back together. Of course they are I
Speaker 2: think a full Mario world, you know, not multiverse, but
Speaker 2: cinematic universe is something they probably want to do at
Speaker 2: Illumination because, especially if the doc Kung movie does well,
Speaker 2: that signifies to them that they can just keep making
Speaker 2: these for forever and that they will all make a
Speaker 2: billion dollars.
Speaker 1: So yeah, not too suppressed. So I the Mario movie
Speaker 1: was a DreamWorks joint, right or.
Speaker 2: Not dream Work Illumination, which they're both owned by Universal
Speaker 2: Now I think so.
Speaker 1: Over the weekend I watched the live action How to
Speaker 1: Train Your Dragon movie, which was just a carbon copy
Speaker 1: of the animated movie. Just dollar, do you think we're
Speaker 1: going to get to a point with the Mario movie
Speaker 1: and whatever Mario cinematic universe they're going to create here
Speaker 1: that maybe five ten years down the line, Nintendo will
Speaker 1: be comfortable to take another stab at a live action Mario. No,
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 3: Think that this one worked so well and made so
Speaker 3: much money.
Speaker 2: Maybe not in ten years, But I don't know. Man,
Speaker 2: eventually why they taking animated ones?
Speaker 3: And didn't you who was saying that kids hate live
Speaker 3: action movies? Now I was true, that's true. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I guess I mean Sonics live action and fucking love that.
Speaker 7: You know what, Sonic is a rare exception to that.
Speaker 7: You're right, well, the Lion.
Speaker 3: King movie is a live action, man, and.
Speaker 7: I agree, obviously that's not like blank sayment because like
Speaker 7: that Leland Stitch movie, which is live action, like did
Speaker 7: very very well.
Speaker 3: But yeah, we were trying to watch a movie this weekend,
Speaker 3: and I'm trying to get did to watch two movies
Speaker 3: the Material too. Yeah, I'm trying to get him to
Speaker 3: what did you say material? Is that the material?
Speaker 1: No? No, that's the Pedro Pascal right.
Speaker 3: We're trying to get them to watch the Substance.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're trying to get him to watch Missus Doubt Fire.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, and we're trying to get him to watch
Speaker 3: Wayne's World. Okay, Wayne World be interesting.
Speaker 1: Like both these movies a lot as a kid, I
Speaker 1: didn't the Wayne's.
Speaker 3: World pitch is like so easy, right, It's like.
Speaker 1: Dude, these are YouTubers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm like, don't you like, don't you want
Speaker 3: to see like the first YouTubers who love hockey, who
Speaker 3: love heavy metal and just like hang out right right
Speaker 3: and Swans Beetles the needles right, fucking meat loafs in it? Okay,
Speaker 3: what's the problem?
Speaker 2: And uh, we're roboting apparently, just but we can love
Speaker 2: our local recordings.
Speaker 3: Just keep going and we're trying to get uh and
Speaker 3: he wouldn't do it, So we settled on Ninja Turtles too, which.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was my favorite movie.
Speaker 5: That was if you were the right age.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a scene where they're recruiting foot soldiers. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And the guy this goon who like crosses over forty
Speaker 3: second Street to like meet the the sort of cast
Speaker 3: of rascals and hoodlums and outcasts. He's just like, who's
Speaker 3: hell was gonna work? Okay, all right, only you was
Speaker 3: gonna have to take a test and then we's gonna
Speaker 3: decide who gets in new organization. It's amazing. I just
Speaker 3: want that injected into everybody's eye. I'm gonna start talking
Speaker 3: that way. He should. I like I had to rewind
Speaker 3: it and watch it seven times because it is so
Speaker 3: fucking awesome. Also Raphael the entire time like so like
Speaker 3: Michael Angelo sounds like he's from uh, you know, like
Speaker 3: the West Coast, right, I forgot? And and Raphael sounds
Speaker 3: like he's born in bred Staten Island, And it's like,
Speaker 3: what happened? I get it off from New York different
Speaker 3: shows anyway, So we so the next night after Ninja
Speaker 3: Turtles is like, all right, dude, doubt fire Waynswo'll picket
Speaker 3: we he And maybe there is some truth to what
Speaker 3: you've said, Mike, because we had to watch toy Story
Speaker 3: two instead, which I've never seen. It's really good. That's
Speaker 3: a good movie. That's real good. I kind of want
Speaker 3: to see three now, oh.
Speaker 1: That much. Four.
Speaker 3: Everyone says three is the perfect movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's the perfect ending, is what they'll say. And
Speaker 1: then keep going sometimes and that's all right, Sure we'll
Speaker 1: get to we'll get to Chase the one with Wayne Knight, right, yes, yes, yeah.
Speaker 3: Don't tell me I look like Kim. That's not flattering people.
Speaker 1: People have told me.
Speaker 7: That sometimes, and I'm keep that one to yourself. Actually,
Speaker 7: that's not that's not a confidence boosters.
Speaker 3: Are people saying you look like the toy store guy
Speaker 3: or Wayne.
Speaker 1: Knight the toy store guy.
Speaker 3: That's not nice. You don't look like him.
Speaker 4: Chad says, we took my then seven year old son
Speaker 4: to a neighborhood movie night, and the folks in church
Speaker 4: decided that Weird Science was a good movie for the kids.
Speaker 4: I had that on BHS when I was a kid,
Speaker 4: and I loved I was probably about seven and I
Speaker 4: love that.
Speaker 3: But we all know, yeah, you had a different childhood.
Speaker 4: Never explained to my stepdad at the time, like ran
Speaker 4: for a second of a like video rental store, like
Speaker 4: he started his own like family video type thing and
Speaker 4: went out of business pretty quick, but he had all
Speaker 4: these fucking VHS tapes. So we just had milk crates
Speaker 4: and milk crates filled with all these like VHS's from
Speaker 4: like you know, eighty two to like ninety four, and
Speaker 4: so there's the ones that I was constantly dipping into.
Speaker 4: And so I would just see like the cover of
Speaker 4: Weird Science and pop it in, like yeah that makes sense, Yeah,
Speaker 4: that makes sense.
Speaker 2: It'd be Weird Science today. They would not make a
Speaker 2: beautiful like swimsuit model. They would make a horse girl.
Speaker 2: That's what That's what would happen in that movie.
Speaker 1: That we'd be a YouTuber.
Speaker 3: Yeah, be a tuber.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I God, I got I like lit up just
Speaker 7: hearing somebody talk about Secret of the News.
Speaker 3: That was just absolutely.
Speaker 7: I know, like everyone respects the first movie more and
Speaker 7: I get it, and like the second one is definitely
Speaker 7: more market.
Speaker 3: It's like Rocky versus Rocky four Secret so far it's
Speaker 3: just pitch black and you you need to like pump
Speaker 3: up the gamma even watch that film.
Speaker 1: No to get on the high horse of like see
Speaker 1: why I think Secret of the Use is better than
Speaker 1: the first one and you know, a lot more colorful,
Speaker 1: a lot more colorful, but yo as the little kid
Speaker 1: with not a lot of like brown kid representation. Seeing Keno,
Speaker 1: I was like.
Speaker 3: Oh, ship mom, I'm going to go deliver pizzas.
Speaker 1: Now, ca over Casey Jones hot take?
Speaker 3: Why don't you pump the breaks down?
Speaker 1: Well, I'm with you, I'm with you, Mike.
Speaker 3: Why can't why not? Both? Right? Why not both? It
Speaker 3: is kind of like where is Casey Jones in the
Speaker 3: second one?
Speaker 1: He was terrible?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I thought he was a fun character.
Speaker 5: Was it like Chris Maroney or something?
Speaker 3: No Elias Codius? Who if I say Jones.
Speaker 2: Sator maybe mis pronounced Chris Maloney or whatever. That Like
Speaker 2: that's a good like that is who that cared do gang?
Speaker 3: They're they're doppelgangers for sure. Jason. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But like the opening, like a couple of minutes of
Speaker 1: tm N T two makes me salivate.
Speaker 7: It's an underground Before that, the pizza montage is the
Speaker 7: greatest opening of a movie ever.
Speaker 3: How good Fellas that landed? Real? Well? That but that
Speaker 3: and that's like the most New York part of the
Speaker 3: whole movie because everything else is like so blatantly. Yeah
Speaker 3: that title when they jump, when they then they freeze
Speaker 3: frame it and they jump. I forgot. I had pre
Speaker 3: ordered all these like Ninja Turtles to Neca action figures
Speaker 3: and I unearthed them after the movie, and obviously is
Speaker 3: going crazy and he wants the t g R I canister.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Also, the new Toteller was better than the Corey Feldman.
Speaker 7: I'm sorry, he just the way he says, Yeah, that
Speaker 7: a lot all the time.
Speaker 3: I do that all the time. It's crazy. You rediscover
Speaker 3: all the things you say all the time. Every time
Speaker 3: I watch Wayne's World, every time, I was like, oh
Speaker 3: my god, I say that often.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: Keno is also the stunt guy for Donna Teller.
Speaker 1: Ernie raised Junior shouts out to fucking up cancer these.
Speaker 2: Movies should I I could? I can totally just show
Speaker 2: them teenage Meinja Turtles on. They liked they had a
Speaker 2: peer where they liked some of the cartoons and the
Speaker 2: animated shows.
Speaker 3: They watched that new anime movie that was really good. Yes,
Speaker 3: and they like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that one is really good.
Speaker 3: Like people's first sort of like pushback is like, oh
Speaker 3: it's violent, Like no, no, those are not These are
Speaker 3: not movies, and they're just from the soldiers, damn. And
Speaker 3: the puppets are so good.
Speaker 2: Super best thing that Jim handsOn Workshop did after Rastle.
Speaker 7: Right, what's great because three it wasn't Jim and you
Speaker 7: could just see the quality diplay creating.
Speaker 3: That's the that's the Samurai one, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the.
Speaker 4: Samurais are watching hockey on TV and out.
Speaker 3: Were expecting the Adams family.
Speaker 1: I had a fucking jump scare. I was scrolling through
Speaker 1: TikTok and someone was like talking about and so I
Speaker 1: stuck around and then they showed the fucking Michael Bay Turtles.
Speaker 3: Oh that was so that happened.
Speaker 7: Seamus was in the second I never saw the second
Speaker 7: one boy Receive and or rock Steady, and he was
Speaker 7: like the live action one before he got turned into
Speaker 7: the mutant.
Speaker 3: Then he became the voice. Oh I legit.
Speaker 2: Could not watch those movies because I hated looking at
Speaker 2: the hurtle. They looked disgusting, and Turtles it was the whole.
Speaker 7: Over designed thing that Michael Bay can't stop himself with.
Speaker 7: They had they had that's the right response. Megan Fox like, whatever, but.
Speaker 5: Where are their teeth like this?
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think I've told you all this do
Speaker 1: y'all remember who Master Splinter's voice was, Yeah, who, Tony Shaloup.
Speaker 3: Monk.
Speaker 1: It's weird, weird choice, very weird.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: Man, while we're talking about movies, Hey, uh Rachel Brosnahanda
Speaker 1: was fucking fantastic because Lois Lade she was just marvelous
Speaker 1: and amazing.
Speaker 3: I'm going to see that this next week. She's like
Speaker 3: an emo below emo punk rock?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, what.
Speaker 3: Makes her emo punk rock? Anyway?
Speaker 1: H So Seth Rogan is gonna be Donkey Kong again.
Speaker 3: Huh yeah, God, thank you. Yeah, I guess. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: they're going to bring him back. They'll bring him back.
Speaker 7: I mean they established the whole Kong's world pretty deeply
Speaker 7: in that other movie, and we saw Diddy and Trixie
Speaker 7: for a bit.
Speaker 1: They'll have more to do.
Speaker 7: I don't think we saw Funky in that movie, so
Speaker 7: we'll see Funky.
Speaker 2: Probably think he's like on one of the carts in
Speaker 2: the background in one of the scenes.
Speaker 4: Maybe I saw an image of Bonanza was supposedly leaked. Uh,
Speaker 4: I don't know. It's not like I don't know this
Speaker 4: counts as a spoiler.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you right now. Will people look at you.
Speaker 3: I don't care, but people, something completely insane.
Speaker 4: If it's real, if anybody wants to mute for like
Speaker 4: twenty seconds bluster Kong from the fucking TV show looking
Speaker 4: off funked up like bluster Kong.
Speaker 3: I don't know if it.
Speaker 4: Was a joke, photoshop thing or something, but if fucking
Speaker 4: bluster Kong from The Crystal Coconut is in this game,
Speaker 4: there's no way that's real. People are saying it's fake. Okay,
Speaker 4: all right, that would be so fucking weird. All right, anyway,
Speaker 4: not a spoiler.
Speaker 3: Not a spoiler. It's okay, it's fake. It's not even
Speaker 3: a spoiler. Okay, Yeah, it's fake, Mike, fake bluster Kong
Speaker 3: from the TV show. Yeah, it's like a blurry screen
Speaker 3: that guy can wreck. No one can recreate blurriness and photoshop.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Anyway E's putting in me for be it on the shelf.
Speaker 2: That's the last story I got your headlines. It's weird
Speaker 2: because it's like, that's a series that even when I
Speaker 2: was like does anyone still care about these?
Speaker 1: They still sold really well.
Speaker 2: They were often like the top ten best selling games
Speaker 2: of the year, and now doesn't even want to do
Speaker 2: those anymore, So what's going on?
Speaker 3: Yeah, they just don't want to make games.
Speaker 7: That's the way that last one came and went a bit.
Speaker 7: But I thought that about the ones before that too,
Speaker 7: and they apparently still sold really well.
Speaker 1: Anyways.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so ah, yeah, it's a bumber because we're not
Speaker 7: getting a ton of racing games anymore. Like, you know,
Speaker 7: the Forts Motorsports Studio was a big part of those
Speaker 7: layoffs that recently happened for Speed. It's not looking great
Speaker 7: for my Ridge Racer reboots. This used to be such
Speaker 7: an important genre, such an impactful genre, and now it's like,
Speaker 7: unless you have Sonic or Mario in it, good luck.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Ea also kind of just ran rough shot over Code Masters,
Speaker 2: who they acquired in the last couple of years. It's
Speaker 2: been a famous you know, driving game studio. Well not
Speaker 2: anymore really. They got I think they still make F
Speaker 2: one so they'll still have that or whatever. But yeah,
Speaker 2: so no more need for Speed for now. It's kind
Speaker 2: of indiffinite. But this is like the company was like, Okay,
Speaker 2: maybe they'll get back around to burn Out. Well forget
Speaker 2: about that, that's never happening. They're not even making need
Speaker 2: for speed anymore, so bummer. All right, that does for
Speaker 2: the headlines. I'm handing the show back over to you, Jan.
Speaker 1: All right, Gang, we're gonna go take a quick bricky
Speaker 1: break and wax poetically about the city of New York, cheese, pizza,
Speaker 1: and the sewers. Wow, sewers making a big impact of
Speaker 1: this episode right after this, and we'll be back with
Speaker 1: emails on YouTube super chats right after this. These are

Speaker 1: There you go, folks talk about representation, Bombcastigiant bomb dot
Speaker 1: com once again, the email addresses and your emails too.
Speaker 1: We got an obsunon amount a bunch this week. We
Speaker 1: may we only have the time to get through a
Speaker 1: couple of them, but first email the show comes from
Speaker 1: ABS from Brighton UK. ABS rights in all right, Bomb
Speaker 1: Giant Bomb Crew. Looks like this is the most relevant
Speaker 1: time to mention this. So when I was back in
Speaker 1: college in the UK, I knew someone who had their
Speaker 1: car pimped out on the show pimped My Ride UK,
Speaker 1: hosted by the now problematic host Tim Westwood. Here's a
Speaker 1: link to the episode on YouTube. There was there was
Speaker 1: one very clear thing about the UK edition of the
Speaker 1: show that I could clearly remember was that the budget
Speaker 1: for this show was clearly lesser than the US version.
Speaker 1: Instead of pre release PSPs given out or plasma screens
Speaker 1: being installed into bumpers we had especially for the guy
Speaker 1: I knew, a camcorder installed into the dashboard, or stone
Speaker 1: handprints of British actor Danny Dyer used to upgrade the vehicles.
Speaker 1: The car in question was a red Suzuki Swift, and
Speaker 1: I remember going on nights out. Nights out were as
Speaker 1: a taller man I would go. I would normally go
Speaker 1: in front of the passenger seat of a car because
Speaker 1: my legs were too long for the.
Speaker 7: Back seat all that I could afford.
Speaker 1: Do you find that but to make us not look
Speaker 1: like a group of mischievous reprobates in a mobile death trap,
Speaker 1: I would sit in the back and the backrest of
Speaker 1: the front seat would go against my legs, as a
Speaker 1: backrest couldn't stand upright on its own accord after the
Speaker 1: car had been pimped. Here two other things I remember.
Speaker 1: The car would constantly have to have work done on it,
Speaker 1: as the car would constantly break down. I'm pretty sure
Speaker 1: that there was a contractual obligation that they must take
Speaker 1: the car to a specific motor shows and events to
Speaker 1: promote the show. So even after getting the work done,
Speaker 1: he drove the car for less time than if he
Speaker 1: had just left it alone. I would like to add
Speaker 1: that my memory of this whole debacle is very fuzzy
Speaker 1: as it's roughly twenty years ago. Helpe you find it interesting. Nonetheless,
Speaker 1: thanks for everything you do. Abs from Brighton UK.
Speaker 7: That's fun time that they could just be like we
Speaker 7: got to take your car for a bit, we got
Speaker 7: a promoters show.
Speaker 2: Also, I'm sorry, a stone handprint of British actor Danny Dyer.
Speaker 5: Yeah, who's Danny Dyer?
Speaker 3: Nobody? Who the fuck is that? It's incredible, Like that's
Speaker 3: where I got hung up on this whole time.
Speaker 4: I've been like, you know, his breakthrough role was as
Speaker 4: Moth and human Traffic. He was open so if you
Speaker 4: don't know that he was also Billy the Limpet and
Speaker 4: mean Machine. Also you remember him as Tommy Johnson in
Speaker 4: the Football Factory right.
Speaker 1: Football thousand and four? What what about Emailer's friend made
Speaker 1: them think like, oh well, we got to get this
Speaker 1: guy's handprinted.
Speaker 2: They just like happened to have Danny Dyer about, Like
Speaker 2: that's just what happened there, Like this is what we
Speaker 2: can afford.
Speaker 1: He's standing there.
Speaker 7: Rules Danny Tyer is going to be in an upcoming
Speaker 7: Christmas musical drama film called Christmas Karma.
Speaker 1: Is that a Hallmark original? I don't think it is
Speaker 1: a Hallmark might be a BBC No, No, oh boy?
Speaker 1: Uh well, emailer, I hope you know what. Send pictures
Speaker 1: of the car if you have any. I would love
Speaker 1: to see them. Oh yeah, what zealous celebrity? Would you
Speaker 1: like handprints in your car?

Speaker 3: letter of the album.

Speaker 2: a superhero. It's okay, cheesy, but it's really well done.
Speaker 5: It was a sky High and I was picturing soul

Speaker 2: has anyone else seen it?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: I think I want to tell me if this is real.
Speaker 2: I think I saw it as a clip from this movie.
Speaker 2: Is there a point where uh, what what is their
Speaker 2: name of the Platinum?
Speaker 3: Wow? Wow? Platinum Wow Platinum?
Speaker 2: And the other guy, the the the creator whatever, walks
Speaker 2: in the room and John what's his name is got
Speaker 2: a crossbow under his blanket and he says.
Speaker 1: Do you like looking at my boner?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Johnny, he says, when you get a load of
Speaker 2: my boner, and then he removes the blanket and he
Speaker 2: shoots her in the heart with the crossbow.
Speaker 4: That sounds about right, yep, yeah, yeah, I think that happened.
Speaker 3: Crossbow thing happened.
Speaker 5: I just forgot if he killed Wild Platinum or not.
Speaker 2: Okay, man, this sounds like a work of art beyond
Speaker 2: what I could possibly concede.
Speaker 4: I mean, I would recommend people seeing Megalopolis. Yes, it's
Speaker 4: not quite It's not a net is like a good
Speaker 4: one of those megalo is a bad one.
Speaker 1: Of those cool fantasy effects reality.
Speaker 5: That's what I've been saying.
Speaker 1: Yep, ye, all right, No, the.
Speaker 3: Jets don't know.
Speaker 4: That's that's my non spoiler version of my Clare obscure stuff.
Speaker 5: Is now that what you get out how fantasy effects reality?
Speaker 3: Yes, oh my god, damn Dan three point zero sucks.
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan.
Speaker 3: I love that. I'm for the fourth version. Game is
Speaker 3: a good game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay. I was sticking in the UK. Tom from
Speaker 1: the UK writes in High Bombers, I attended one of
Speaker 1: the public days at TGS twenty thirteen Tokyo Game Show
Speaker 1: where there was a playable demo of Deep Down, which
Speaker 1: I ended up playing. It was a time limited demo,
Speaker 1: maybe six minutes at most. If I known how things
Speaker 1: were going to turn out, I would have savored every second,
Speaker 1: but I didn't. If you're interested, here's what I remember,
Speaker 1: feel free to skip this. I'm not. I'm one hundred
Speaker 1: percent sure that the play character could walk forward and
Speaker 1: turn both left and right. Walking backwards might have been possible,
Speaker 1: but I don't remember trying. Also, attack was on either
Speaker 1: right shoulder button or right trigger. Apart from that, my
Speaker 1: memory is extremely fuzzy. I think what happened is what
Speaker 1: I walked forward, fell down a hole, smashed some pots,
Speaker 1: started climb the ladder, and then my time was up.
Speaker 1: Apparently there were some enemies in the demo, but I'm
Speaker 1: sure that that I didn't fight any Maybe there were
Speaker 1: at the top of the ladder. Are there any games
Speaker 1: which ended up not being released that the crew remember
Speaker 1: playing at a trade show or preview event? Love the
Speaker 1: show been listening since two thousand and nine and I
Speaker 1: look forward to it every week. Keep up the good work.
Speaker 7: I played Soak Song at E through twenty nineteen. And
Speaker 7: Nintendo's Boof Was it just I had like one station
Speaker 7: in the middle of like the Boof we like in
Speaker 7: the rest of them, right, Like that kind of thing
Speaker 7: is like the last day, as I was leaving, I asked,
Speaker 7: I'm play a little Silk song. This is neat, Yeah,
Speaker 7: little tite noe. No one else would be playing that
Speaker 7: game for over half a decade, but that game.
Speaker 1: Will come out.
Speaker 7: I didn't play it, but I do think about that
Speaker 7: Prey to Theater demo. Yeah, like twenty ten, twenty eleventhing
Speaker 7: like that, and like everybody thought that thing looked amazing,
Speaker 7: and then that game got canceled and it was a bummer.
Speaker 7: There's also I saw a presentation for that Parts of
Speaker 7: the Caribbean game that looked a lot like Fable two,
Speaker 7: but it was Parts of the Caribbean. It wasn't like
Speaker 7: Johnny Depp. It was the original story in that world
Speaker 7: and it looked me and I thought there was something there.
Speaker 7: And that day game also did not ever come out.
Speaker 3: I remember playing. I mean it did come out, but
Speaker 3: Sculling Bones was like.
Speaker 7: There was like a different VI played a different game
Speaker 7: than what came out almost certainly, right, Yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Remember that.
Speaker 1: I remember playing a very bad Olympics game this I
Speaker 1: think this was my first E three. I no one
Speaker 1: else wanted this appointment, so I got stuck with it.
Speaker 1: It was like a Konami Olympics game for the Switch one,
Speaker 1: and I went to the appointment very nervous. And then
Speaker 1: as I was taking the appointment and playing the game,
Speaker 1: I was like, this is very bad. Is it okay
Speaker 1: that it's bad? I feel bad that it's bad. And
Speaker 1: then I don't know if it ever came out.
Speaker 2: I played some Skull and Bones early on, and the
Speaker 2: game was not much like that. When it eventually came out,
Speaker 2: it was very different. But that's the closest thing I
Speaker 2: have to this. Most of the games I played were
Speaker 2: you know, it was like Midas is Touched. They all
Speaker 2: turned into big hits. It did very well.
Speaker 1: Tom has a post. When Top Gun Maverick was released
Speaker 1: in Japan, there was a cross promotion with Uma Musume.
Speaker 1: As part of this, the voice actress for Mayano, Top
Speaker 1: Gun and three of the other voice actresses attended the
Speaker 1: Japanese premiere. They did a short interview with Tom Cruise
Speaker 1: where they told him they were horse girls and asked
Speaker 1: him to say I copy. It was incredibly wholesome. There
Speaker 1: we go, all right, moving along.
Speaker 7: There is something I'm sorry, There is something that Jay
Speaker 7: said about scientologists and the horse girl man.
Speaker 1: Like see Trevor and Tucson writes and Hello Duders. Last week, I.
Speaker 3: Finally made a childhood dream come true and brought home
Speaker 3: a pinball machine.
Speaker 1: Williams Whirlwind. It's been my favorite pin since I was
Speaker 1: a kid and wanted to be a meteorology meteorologist. Meteor
Speaker 1: meteor I can't you got it? Keep on me other
Speaker 1: ralogist yep. Then I went to school forgot about my
Speaker 1: dreams and ended up a lawyer instead. Life happens for Backlar.
Speaker 1: Any ownership tips for everyone? If you were developing a
Speaker 1: giant bomb themed pinball machine, what features would each of
Speaker 1: you pick to include? I can't help but imagine a
Speaker 1: large talking dan head gimmick on the playfield, a la
Speaker 1: Rudy from Funhouse, the great work Trevor from Tucson.
Speaker 3: Don't put that stuff into the into the world.
Speaker 4: You'll you'll you're gonna break into Backlar's house and install
Speaker 4: that in his pinball machines.
Speaker 3: That would be quite the fucking heist. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 3: you have an old machine. That thing's old. Uh, so
Speaker 3: you have to make sure all of your you know,
Speaker 3: connections and your your metal tips are clean or you know,
Speaker 3: you're gonna have problems with whirlwind. That's it, those things.
Speaker 3: I guess that was like maybe ninety or eighty. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so it's you know, I my fun house definitely went
Speaker 3: a little nutty, even after I generally restored it. You
Speaker 3: just you know, and the problem with those machines is
Speaker 3: that the PCBs that they run on are like the
Speaker 3: size of the entire backboard. Like right now now they're
Speaker 3: like raspberry pies. They're like, you know, four by four inches.
Speaker 3: They're little circuit boards. Now. The old ones from back
Speaker 3: then are so big they're just susceptible to stuff. A
Speaker 3: lot of fuses can blow, so you know, I would
Speaker 3: like sounds crazy, but like almost preemptively like scoping out
Speaker 3: a fuse set for the machine just to have on
Speaker 3: hand for when one does inevitably blow is a good
Speaker 3: sort of thing to just have and just keep it
Speaker 3: as clean as possible. You know, those things are designed
Speaker 3: to take a beating, but there's still just you know,
Speaker 3: big old analog pieces of uh you know, machinery that
Speaker 3: can that can get you know, jostle around. I if
Speaker 3: we I remember I did a top ten where I
Speaker 3: I like made up a beast cast pinball game. Do
Speaker 3: you remember. Yeah, I remember like a couple of years
Speaker 3: ago where we had like different multi ball you know
Speaker 3: modes and stuff like that. Yeah. I love all that.
Speaker 3: I I do like toys and the mechanical stuff like
Speaker 3: Jurassic Park has a t rex that bites the ball
Speaker 3: and spits it out like that stuff rules, So more
Speaker 3: of that the better.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I like anything involving magnets or things coming up from
Speaker 7: the board. Like I'm a I'm a big fan of
Speaker 7: the Jaws arcane machine. Yeah, one like Jaws himself comes up,
Speaker 7: but also his Finn comes up for a bit and
Speaker 7: you have to hit that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'd like something like that.
Speaker 7: Uh In one of my games, like I'm trying to
Speaker 7: think how to tight end with a robocopp or a
Speaker 7: Mortal Kombat Mythologies thing or something, your feet pop up.
Speaker 8: Yeah, hit my feet, everybody, and then after you like
Speaker 8: knock out all the toes, you just hear a voice
Speaker 8: clip if you're going they're flaky man.
Speaker 5: I like whenever there's like a second pinball thing, like
Speaker 5: there's a.
Speaker 3: Second below the playfield. Yeah. The sub stuff is really cool.
Speaker 3: I think the g at Night down there. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: that'd be sill. The Lebowski machine, which I know is
Speaker 3: like riddled with like quality assurance issues, has a sub
Speaker 3: field that's like a bowling alley in it. Oh cool.
Speaker 3: I do like that.
Speaker 1: That's great.
Speaker 2: I just like when you have to spell the word
Speaker 2: at the top with like there's four slots in B
Speaker 2: O M B and you gotta like hit the buttons
Speaker 2: to make adjust which one's lit up, and so the
Speaker 2: ball hits one that's not lit up so it clicks
Speaker 2: in place.
Speaker 7: I like that set up. Like we at the start,
Speaker 7: we'll say shoot, right because it's it's funny.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna shoot, then shoot.
Speaker 1: What do you okay? I'm sorry.
Speaker 7: I heard two people on the show now say the
Speaker 7: word couple and then they more than two things. What
Speaker 7: do you all think the word couples?
Speaker 3: Two?
Speaker 1: I'm just not hard.
Speaker 3: I'm not like a hard.
Speaker 5: I'm hard on three or four? You know, yeah, several
Speaker 5: am I wrong?
Speaker 3: But isn't like the actual definition of the word two companies?
Speaker 2: Yes, Yes, that's the actual definition. Yeah, but I'll use
Speaker 2: it to mean a few. I will don't.
Speaker 1: I don't like that we have a pick.
Speaker 2: Now, that's what I say too. I'll say a pair.
Speaker 2: I have a word for that. So I'm like, you know,
Speaker 2: a pair of for a pair.
Speaker 1: When I'm looking at that a nice pair walking down
Speaker 1: the boardwalk there, you know, I call them a couple.
Speaker 3: Couple. Yeah, that is insane that you you said the sentence.
Speaker 3: I will sometimes use the word couple to mean a few.
Speaker 2: And then I'll use a few to me nothing, It
Speaker 2: was nothing to you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, someone run the poll please all right. Next email
Speaker 1: comes from Alex from San Antonio, Texas. My team. I've
Speaker 1: loved the show for nearly ten years, and now are
Speaker 1: you are my favorite podcast? I never really right, but
Speaker 1: just wanted to ask. The following is returnal the blood
Speaker 1: Born of this gen Thanks ps. Dan has been my
Speaker 1: favorite from the first time I heard him on the podcast.
Speaker 1: Was gutted when he left, but damn am I glad
Speaker 1: he's stuck around. Alex from San Antonio, Texas, sent from
Speaker 1: my iPhone.
Speaker 3: I think, Alex, that's the kind of you.
Speaker 7: It is kind of the bloodborn because of it of
Speaker 7: this gen because it's this really super praised example of
Speaker 7: as genre that is actually a bit overrated.
Speaker 4: No Bloodborne has gotten its flowers many times over. I
Speaker 4: like Returnal more than Bloodborne. I'll go back and play it.
Speaker 4: Maybe I'll change my mind, but I think Returnal is
Speaker 4: still God is it maybe the best PS five no astrobot.
Speaker 4: But it's like it's a tremendous, triminous game. Whose game
Speaker 4: of the year it came out? Yes, Returnal deserves way
Speaker 4: more flowers than it gets.
Speaker 1: I think it gets a lot more flowers than you realise.
Speaker 7: I think you're surrounded by us being kind of poo
Speaker 7: pooing on it a little bit, a little bit, maybe.
Speaker 1: I feel indifferent to return I always wanted to check
Speaker 1: out the multiplayer mode.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I do want to try that too.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's right, they didn't do that. I want
Speaker 3: to play that?
Speaker 1: Is that just two max?
Speaker 3: I think? Is that a couple of players? I'm putting that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that's actually good? All right? Hey, dudes, is
Speaker 1: mich aware that in the Connectict New York, New Jersey
Speaker 1: area there's a supermarket chain that's been called the Disneyland
Speaker 1: of supermarkets by the New York Times.
Speaker 3: Hell, yeah, I know it's going to be.
Speaker 1: It's called I never heard of this and in addition
Speaker 1: to being built like an Ikea as it has audio
Speaker 1: animatronics singing mass a mascot cow named Clover walking around,
Speaker 1: and some have gold goats outside that you can feed.
Speaker 1: My favorite song is the Whole Fresh Vegetable Song with
Speaker 1: Cindy Celery and Larry Lettuce.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mitch.
Speaker 4: If you've ever seen the Comedians and Cars with Seinfeld
Speaker 4: and Letterman, they go there because it's like a word
Speaker 4: Letterman lived.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, Backlar.
Speaker 7: You got to take me to a stut Leonards so good.
Speaker 3: I mean it's yeah, the the experience is great, but
Speaker 3: the food there is out of control. Like it's very
Speaker 3: very good.
Speaker 4: It's a lot of like Desserty snacky type stuff. That's
Speaker 4: really a grocery store.
Speaker 3: They have to have a huge Baker's.
Speaker 1: There's a whole band of milk. Yeah, there's a milk band.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's awesome. They might they make their own pet
Speaker 3: chips and there the milk.
Speaker 2: The milk skin face is upsetting to look at.
Speaker 4: Oh my, next time you come here, I got to
Speaker 4: take you to the biggest candy store in Minnesota. It's
Speaker 4: just a giant yellow barn and it's got singing candy
Speaker 4: things like animatronic singing guys.
Speaker 7: You did a video with that for men man Leo, Yeah,
Speaker 7: I saw that one they get ro I'll see that.
Speaker 1: Walt Disney animatronic.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's son holy and I like it. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: like it.
Speaker 1: It makes I forget that really.
Speaker 3: I think it's need. How he can lean back on
Speaker 3: a desk. I think that's cool.
Speaker 1: I mean it's good technology for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Hey, look he brought back Lincoln. He was He had
Speaker 7: to defend though, but everyone's like, we don't know if
Speaker 7: you should do that, So we can't ask him if
Speaker 7: he'd be okay with it. But he'd be a hipocrit
Speaker 7: if he said no.
Speaker 5: Walt Disney brought back Abe Lincoln.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, from the dead, from the.
Speaker 5: What are you talking about?
Speaker 7: At the time, he made a robot percon of ape
Speaker 7: that was one of the first animatronics. Was Abe Lincoln
Speaker 7: like a world fair and it's at Disneyland.
Speaker 3: It's great, all right, all.
Speaker 1: Right, gang, only a couple more emails, but we did
Speaker 1: receive a boatload this week once again. Bombcasti giant bomb
Speaker 1: dot Com. This email comes from John from South Dakota. Hello, Duders,
Speaker 1: this may be my first email, frankly after listening to
Speaker 1: you for two entire children eight plus years. I'm not
Speaker 1: sure if I've emailed you before. If any of you
Speaker 1: haven't had an MMO arc, Thanks for everything you do.
Speaker 1: John from South Dakota.
Speaker 4: I actually think the first series I might have done
Speaker 4: on Giant Bomb before like Middle Year and Mario Party,
Speaker 4: was it was.
Speaker 5: Called like thirty Day Trial.
Speaker 4: And it's because I had never played a MMO before
Speaker 4: and I got like a thirty day trial to World
Speaker 4: of Warcraft. And I think we did like four episodes
Speaker 4: of me trying it out.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I remember watching that, but I'd be curious
Speaker 1: how that went.
Speaker 4: I mean, I think I generally was like I get it,
Speaker 4: you know, like I didn't play it afterwards at all,
Speaker 4: but it's like I get it. I think I still
Speaker 4: just couldn't track with like paying for a game every month.
Speaker 4: I think that just I still can't figure that out.
Speaker 1: Yeah I did.
Speaker 7: I've had thousands of hours in World Warcraft and Final
Speaker 7: Fantasy fourteen World Warcraft.
Speaker 1: Like on and off since it came out.
Speaker 7: Definitely had some high points with like God, I was doing, like,
Speaker 7: you know, like rating and everything during Legion, quite a
Speaker 7: bit of Raft of the lich King. When Wow Classic
Speaker 7: first came out, I played a ton of that and
Speaker 7: was doing Molten Core, Black Wing Layer things like that,
Speaker 7: and then Yeah fourteen, especially from that in that shadow
Speaker 7: Lands and n Walker era, I was playing an absolute
Speaker 7: ton of Fantasy fourteen and loved it. So I've been
Speaker 7: a big MMO person in the back. And there were
Speaker 7: some that like I played a bit of back when
Speaker 7: they were relevant, even going back to Dark Age of Camelot,
Speaker 7: which was kind of like the in between ever Quest
Speaker 7: and World of Warcraft one.
Speaker 3: Dark Age of Camont was really cool.
Speaker 1: Remember Ashuran's Call Back.
Speaker 7: When that came out, and that was the then Astaurants
Speaker 7: Call two came out and it wasn't that good, so
Speaker 7: they canceled that and just kept making more Asturants Call
Speaker 7: one stuff. I have a fascination one MMOs. I think
Speaker 7: they're neat. It's a big time commitment. It's hard to
Speaker 7: find the time anymore. Even like Lord of the Rings online,
Speaker 7: Star Trek online, they make momos for these properties.
Speaker 3: I really like.
Speaker 7: I'll you know, I've dipped into those, but almost afraid
Speaker 7: to make too big of a commitment in them.
Speaker 1: I have always been curious to go all the way
Speaker 1: into Final Fantasy fourteen. I get in for like a
Speaker 1: couple hours, and then I the the rest of gaming
Speaker 1: catches up to me and like, oh, I don't have
Speaker 1: time for this anymore.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I definitely had a pretty good spot there when
Speaker 7: you know, before doing too much of like this stuff,
Speaker 7: which I love, right, But yeah, I had a lot
Speaker 7: more time for Found Fancy fourteen than I do right now. Honestly,
Speaker 7: it was like part of it, like I'm not playing
Speaker 7: as many other games. That doesn't seem great for my job, right, Yeah,
Speaker 7: I still want to go back and finish the campaign
Speaker 7: for Don Treo and the patch stuff, like the story stuff,
Speaker 7: but by days of doing the like the big raids
Speaker 7: every week or whatnot probably behind me.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I've thought about doing just like a daily f f
Speaker 1: fourteen run for a bit, but then I just don't
Speaker 1: know what the interest would be in that, and then like,
Speaker 1: how do we even archive that?
Speaker 7: It's hard because like you playing Found Fantasy fourteen, going
Speaker 7: through the story mode is it is mostly going to
Speaker 7: be you clicking through dialogue boxes. That is the game
Speaker 7: it's like you better like that story and those characters.
Speaker 7: So it's in a lot of ways, it's actually not
Speaker 7: great streaming content. It really isn't all right.
Speaker 1: Moving on, Uh, let's see, I wanted to end with
Speaker 1: that one, so let's go to this one. Corey from
Speaker 1: Atlanta here last week's bomb cast Grub brought up trying
Speaker 1: to go to a weird al concert. Took my oldest
Speaker 1: son a few years ago and was only mildly interested
Speaker 1: at first, but he blew me away. That got me
Speaker 1: wondering if there are any concerts or something similar that
Speaker 1: you went to that you were not as pumped about.
Speaker 1: That changed your mind. Keep up the good work. You
Speaker 1: all are killing it, Corey.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 7: At a blizz Con, Muse was there and I was like, well,
Speaker 7: I guess I'll go see Mews since there I can
Speaker 7: see them for free because it's just part of blizz Con.
Speaker 1: Mus freaking rule. That was a great show.
Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty good. I was always kind of impressed by
Speaker 3: that man.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that was a very impressive show that mus put
Speaker 7: on for all the Blizzard nerds.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was Bonnaroo and I that's where I
Speaker 2: uh was trying to find a friend and there's like
Speaker 2: a bunch of stages and one of them was my
Speaker 2: Morning Jacket, and that's the first time I had heard them,
Speaker 2: and we both got like I found him and we
Speaker 2: got like sucked into that concert and couldn't stop watching
Speaker 2: because you know, it was a long week and we
Speaker 2: were partying, and then we're just like, oh, this is
Speaker 2: the exact music we need in this moment right now.
Speaker 2: And that was like really late at night too, so
Speaker 2: it just kind of hit us and never since them like,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, it's one of my favorite bands.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 4: I'm not typically much of a concert guy, but I
Speaker 4: remember The Stones played Arrowhead Stadium maybe like seven or
Speaker 4: eight years ago, and.
Speaker 3: What I'm not typically a concert guy, but the Rolling Stone,
Speaker 3: I mean it's a huge Stone span.
Speaker 4: It seemed like, okay, they're old as fuck, this might
Speaker 4: be my one chance to see live, and I did.
Speaker 5: And I did not expect much from them, because like.
Speaker 4: I've seen Bob Dylan twice and he was okay, I'm
Speaker 4: the grandpa, yet you continue go.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Dylan was not good.
Speaker 4: The Stones, despite being like their upper seventies, were like
Speaker 4: much better than I expected.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I got Carly ray Jepson tickets for like twenty
Speaker 1: bucks each and I thought I just wanted to hear
Speaker 1: the call me Maybe song. But then I became a
Speaker 1: lifelong fan because she fucking barred the house down, I.
Speaker 5: Said, Harley Race Jepson, And now I'm trying to figure
Speaker 5: out what that.
Speaker 1: Is Carley Ray, she is h yeah, yo emotions, fucking
Speaker 1: no skips album dog anyway, gosh. Last email of the
Speaker 1: show comes from Sandy. Hi, guys, Sandy from Minnesota here.
Speaker 1: A recent question about things to do in the area
Speaker 1: made me want to ask if Dan has been to
Speaker 1: starkad in Saint Paul. It's pretty cool too, floor arcade
Speaker 1: that's an old brewery and has cool stuff like old
Speaker 1: punch out machines, a big pinball section, and a big
Speaker 1: screen Mortal Kombat form machine at the rate of twenty
Speaker 1: five bucks for a day of freeplay. Either way, what's
Speaker 1: everyone's favorite local arcade slash game place if they have one. Also,
Speaker 1: my birthdays on Wednesday, would love to get a shout
Speaker 1: out from you. Thanks guys, Happy.
Speaker 3: Birthday, said birthday. Every birthday, Sady.
Speaker 4: I've considered this several times. A lot of people have
Speaker 4: told me about it. It sounds really cool. I consider
Speaker 4: doing it for my birthday last month, but wound up
Speaker 4: going bowling.
Speaker 3: I think it's just a thing around here.
Speaker 4: Maybe I'm more so than others with this, but like
Speaker 4: you see Saint Paul on something, and it's like, I know,
Speaker 4: it's the Twin Cities, and I could like go down
Speaker 4: the highway and be in Saint Paul in like fifteen minutes.
Speaker 4: But it's like I've lived in Minnesota for like seven
Speaker 4: or eight years. I've been to Saint Paul like twice.
Speaker 4: I don't know, it's it's a whole different thing. It
Speaker 4: seems like Minnesota or Minneapolis has plenty enough, so I
Speaker 4: kind of don't go over there much. But if there's
Speaker 4: something I wanted to do there, it'd be Starkate. I've
Speaker 4: heard enough people say it's awesome.
Speaker 1: I do want to check it out.
Speaker 3: Of course.
Speaker 7: Gosh, there's a newer one around me in Gerard called
Speaker 7: Past Times that I need to go visit. Still, I've
Speaker 7: heard the things about that. When I was in Orlando recently,
Speaker 7: my friends took me to Arcade Monsters. That was a
Speaker 7: really good one. And then of course Jeff and I
Speaker 7: did that the road trip to Galloping Ghosts. That one
Speaker 7: that will kind of spoil you a little bit. That
Speaker 7: was pretty amazing.
Speaker 3: Yep, that was cool.
Speaker 2: I mean, Beck, there was an arcade you took us
Speaker 2: too in in in the.
Speaker 1: Jersey area, right, that was pretty cool. One of the
Speaker 1: is one of those shutting down?
Speaker 3: Is that what I read shutting down? Oh no, that
Speaker 3: was Yeah. That was somewhere else in north in further
Speaker 3: than I am. I guess in Jersey.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 3: I had heard of it. I'd never been to it,
Speaker 3: but my the game Vault is where I'm pretty close to.
Speaker 3: I feel like most people now in the country live
Speaker 3: about an hour or less away from one of these places,
Speaker 3: right Like, I feel like they've been peppered out through
Speaker 3: throughout the country and mostly populated areas in such a
Speaker 3: way where like you can get your hands on one
