Speaker 1: It's the Internet. You're busy, Let's do this. Welcome to
the Game has Deicides Podcast. This is the podcast where
we decide everything about the world of video games so
you never have to think for yourself.
Speaker 2: I'm your host Jeff Grubb, and with me is Mike Manati.
Speaker 1: In today's episode, Doom the Dark Ages Fucks Kojima World
Tour is on. Switch to specs are out, and a
mount rushmore of weapons.
Speaker 2: Guns. You don't want to do weapons because you don't
want to acknowledge the key blade. That's right.
Speaker 1: I want to actively dissuade anyone from thinking about the
key blade.
Speaker 3: Precisely correct, Mike Manati, How are you doing?
Speaker 2: Very good? Nintendo just announced a new Nintendo sixty four
game from Rare on NSL. Do you guess what it is?
Speaker 4: Is it?
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say it's Diddy Kong Racing.
Speaker 2: No, it is Killer Instinct Gold Actually, whoa, really that's why? Yeah? Okay,
killers think gold and volable now that it's neat, Yeah,
that's one that definitely be on there. I was never
a big killer like old school killer Instinct.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think the old Killer Instinct isn't very good. The
new one was good, but the old one just wasn't great.
Speaker 2: People. Do you like gold? I think, okay, play it,
but yeah, let's give it a shot.
Speaker 3: Do you think this means sixty four?
Speaker 2: The heck? Where's the K sixty four? That's what I want?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, like because we're pretty close to that.
I mean, I guess.
Speaker 1: Maybe two months out from Donkey Kong Bonanza, maybe they
maybe they could still do it. Just feels strange. I
don't know what were you gonna say?
Speaker 2: Just that. I was even trying to play some blast
Core on my switch last night, and for most games,
the N sixty four one is the one where I'm like,
I just kind of need that controller, man, I don't know, yeah,
like the remapping here, like they're doing their best. I
used to think the same thing when just trying to
emulate in sixty four games. Honestly, I just need that controller.
Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, as soon as you start
getting any sort of non camera action on the sea buttons,
it's like, oh, you definitely need the N sixty four
controller because I hate the idea of pressing left on
a right stick to do the left sea button, Like
that's crazy.
Speaker 3: I really find that discussing.
Speaker 2: I mean, for Killer Seeing Gold, I imagine the sea
buttons were used as just inputs for attacks. Yeah, I
don't know. I will see how that all works out.
But hey, that's okay. I have a sixty four controller
around here somewhere. I could play it like that, but
generally I played my switch in handheld mode as all, yep,
how you doing.
Speaker 1: Otherwise, John Bomb stuff is coming together. That's been keeping
us busy.
Speaker 2: We're kind of doing content, but it's a lot. Yeah,
it's been good.
Speaker 4: It's uh.
Speaker 2: I recorded my first quick look of the new era
that'll be going up tomorrow. Do that with jan so
pephone that I'm like set up to do that now.
So I think I can just start pumping those babies out.
Yeah really, so that's exciting. You know, it's been busy.
There's like some you know, stress whatever, but of figuring
out some our game fest and the couch and all
that stuff and just trying to find a place. So
people are moving, uh, to be honest, other people are
moving more than I am on that front, so I
can't complain too much. Someone is moving Heaven and or Earth. Yeah, absolutely,
we're trying to get that figured out so that we
can't do that. But like you know, clock is ticking there,
so nope, we're trying to get that figured out.
Speaker 1: For people that didn't listen to last and then ten dogs.
If you are someone who's joined game Mess recently or
joined the Patreon for the time being, things aren't going
to change very much. The biggest factor there is, uh,
there are There's enough changing that I don't want to
have to think about this changing quite you know, anytime soon.
If we do make any sort of long term changes,
he mess won't go away in any permanent way, like
I'll always do something over here. But yeah, for now,
I'm just happy to keep I'm happy to keep doing
these podcasts with Mike in the evenings during the.
Speaker 2: Week, and I think we can can rely on that.
Speaker 3: At least through at least through the summer. If we
changed anything, we'll let you know, but for now, just
hang with us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I said, I think I'm feeling good about
still doing this. I don't want people to think like, oh,
it's gonna end the summer, but no, you know what, no, no, no, no,
no busy.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I just mean like any changes like, yeah,
I like especially because we got that influx of supporters,
so if there's anything that would change, it wouldn't be
it would be more stuff. It would be like, hey,
We're going to do even cooler things along with these
things that we got going here.

all right, Yeah, let's get into the big topics of
the week here with you know, Doom the Dark Ages
does seem tube. Indeed, Fuck, it looks pretty cool. I
watched I did that quick look with watched him play
a bunch of it. I think it looks like it's
a game for me I have. I still have not
been able to make any time for it though you
played a little bit, right.
Speaker 2: I've been playing, yeah, a bit of it yesterday and today.
I'm in the middle of the first dragon writing chapter.
And that that shit's really cool. That's neat. I like
that there's you know, it's not like there's really a
ton of panther dragon vibes there, but there's enough of
them that I like that. And I also love that,
you know, at first it seems like, oh, it's like
a corridor thing, and then now you're actually kind of
flying around a large area and landing and doing stuff
and chasing things around. But I just like having that
in this other section where I was inside a giant
robot mech thing walking around like, okay, having this stuff
sort of break up the normal Doom stuff is pretty nice.
I like to do Maternal in twenty sixteen a lot,
but it is nice to have something besides just a
random turret sequence to break things up a little bit, right, Yeah,
I think you know.
Speaker 1: Doom's way of doing that in twenty sixteen was here's
like those throwback levels where you could like find teleport
teleport rooms that would send you back to Doom the
original Doom style graphics and still be with your polygonal gun.
It was neat, but that was like, still, yeah, more
Doom to break up the Doom here, it does feel
like distinct in a really strong way, and it looked
it looked like just kind of dumb fun in a
lot of ways too. These other sequences and then you know,
you do go back to the Doom with the you know,
the shield and the Perry system, and it looks like
I recognize this game, but it looks like it plays
in a slightly different way that I find to be
pretty cool.
Speaker 2: I'm glad.
Speaker 1: It's like, here's some big green projectiles that you know
that you can parry, just go hit those They're gonna
come at you a kind of a decent speed, but
something where you could still react to it.
Speaker 2: It all feels like it's here for.
Speaker 1: You to have fun and to really engage with these
systems and not feel overwhelmed in any real way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I like that. It does feel different from
you know, the last couple, especially Do Maternal, which I
played not that long ago in the game mess Game Club.
I like that they are deemphasizing the glory kills and
it is more about these parries and these maneuvers that
you have with the shield and the shield charge and
all that stuff. Feels really cool. The weapons, off course,
still feel fantastic. I think the upgrade system is a
bit better here. There was just so much junkierre collecting
the last one. So far it's mostly just collect gold
use that to upgrade pretty much everything. There's like at
least one other currency come across, but there are like
six upgrade currencies in the last game. It kind of
got obnoxious, honestly. Yeah, yeah, for sure. All right, some
other stuff happening in the news.
Speaker 1: I got worth pointing out it has an eighty six
on open critics, so do.
Speaker 2: Them pretty well? All right?
Speaker 1: Nearly five years in PS five sales remain neckingneck with
PS four. Yeah, it just seems like it's probably gonna
fall behind now because the price is as high as ever.
They're talking about raising the price, and same time, they've
already sort of slipped in terms of keeping up with
the pace because this most recent holiday season, oh I'm sorry,
the most recent three month period, which would be the
first three months of this year, the PS five didn't
sell as much as the PS four did during that time.
So it's like beginning to slip, and there's expectations the
price could going even higher in the United States.
Speaker 3: It's already gone higher just about everywhere else.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: To me, Mike, it doesn't seem like these companies like
Sony and Microsoft care all that much that they're not
getting a ton of new people coming into buying these systems,
or a ton of new people that they have never
seen before. Like, we know the people who are out
there who want this thing, we know they're willing to
spend spend a certain amount on it, and those are
the people who are also going to spend the most
amount of money on our video games as well, which
is where we really make our money. So they seem
to just be catering that direction and leaving everyone else
out of the party.
Speaker 2: I don't know, what sense do you get? Yeah, I
get that. I don't know my big take a. I'm
actually surprised, honestly. The PS five has been keeping up
with the PS four.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was behind for a while early on, and
then as the pandemic was sort of come like things
were coming out of there and it was it was
less supply constrained, it caught up pretty fast. And there
was that six month period where PlayStation made like a
big proclamation for the number of PS fives it was
going to sell, and so it like cut the price
pretty aggressively for like a short period of time, and
a lot of people jumped in then, and that seemed
to kind of catch it up. And now it's just
a million behind the PS fours. You're right, that's that
alone up to this point, what is that around seventy
five million PlayStation Yeah, seventy seven point eight million PlayStation
five sold. That's you know, more than the three ds.
You know, that's really really good. So, yeah, they're kind
of already there with that audience.
Speaker 2: Its PlayStation. I mean, they might be set up, Let's
be honest, they're I mean they have been, but they're
going to continue to be the de facto home console
machine for quite a while now, now you know, is
that going to continue to mean what it used to?
I guess is the question here. And it's sort of
up to them to keep that torch burning.
Speaker 1: Yep, they did say that they were considering a price
increasing in the United States. I mean, they're definitely going
to do one. They did one everywhere else everywhere else.
Since then, Microsoft has raised the price of the of
the Xbox. Excuse me, how much do you think the
PlayStation five goes up in price in the United States?
Speaker 2: Oh God, I don't know. It's it's just wild to like.
The Xbox price increase is still so wild to me.
I can't actually believe it. In some ways, I just can't.
I just can't believe they can get away with much
of one. They already have the PlayStation five Pro at least,
and that thing is, what's seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: It's seven hundred or seven fifty, it's I think it's
seven hundred.
Speaker 2: I think it's seve hundred dollars, So what are we
talking about? An eight hundred dollars PlayStation five pro to
seven fifty with a disk drive? Is so that what
I'm thinking of, that's probably what it is. Well, the
disdrive is alway, yeah, but gosh, it's just hard to
it's hard to imagine. There's part of me because they
had been skins before about doing in the US because
they know how upset people gets. Maybe they maybe they
know that next gen's just a couple of years away,
so maybe they want to just kind of bearing grant
here a little bit with that.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Am I crazy for thinking it still might not happen? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they raised it everywhere else, and this
is the place with the crazy tariffs. Now, of course
tariffs kind of on pause again this time with China
not really there are still thirty percent tariffs, but that
is like down drastically from the one hundred and forty
five percent tariffs that were on China, which was just
an absurd thing.
Speaker 2: They might as well just be infinite at that point.
Speaker 1: So I think that the right in this moment, PlayStation's like, well,
we probably actually should act now or never, because what
if these tariffs actually just go away completely and we
never hear about them again.
Speaker 3: We at that point, we won't have such a good excuse.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think they think they probably do this
pretty soon, mostly because they can, because Microsoft's already done it.
And you know that at a certain point, they're just
leaving money on the table if they're like, why are
we undercutting the price of our competitor when they are
barely able to compete with us in the first place.
Speaker 2: So I think at a long so I PlayStation five
console like the slim right, that is five hundred dollars,
And I'm like, gosh, it's a six hundred dollars PlayStation
five base. Ah, oh that's what it's five years old.
It's so old. Yeah, the thing is so old. Yeah,
I don't know. That's rough. We're getting the mean price
of the PlayStation three. The meme price of that thing
are gonna get up to it. It's just it's well,
and I get why it's probably gonna happen, And they're
still a part of me that's like, I just can't.
I just can't.
Speaker 3: Is that the five hundred dollars one is the one
that does come with a disk drive, right.
Speaker 2: These things are not super specific on here anyea. Because
there's there's an Astrobot bundle that's four fifty, I'm best
on the PlayStation.
Speaker 3: That's going to be the one with that that's probably drive.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So if I were them and I was trying
to get cute, I would just drop the one that
has the disk drive in it and just raise the
price of the digital one up to five hundred.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so sorry, the digital one is for fifty in
the one of the disk drive is five hundred, and
then the Pro. I can't believe the Pro is two
hundred dollars more. It's crazy, it's hard. It's already tw
hundred dollars more. Jeff, that Pro is so expensive. Can
they really raise the price on that thing?
Speaker 1: I guess I know at a certain point, like what's
the different difference between that and seven ninety nine.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just already for the freaks who just have
the money throw around at that kind of thing.
Speaker 1: That's it's already too expensive for me. I have not
bought a PS five.
Speaker 2: Pro, so I have not either, And it's probably the
first like console slish console like refresh, I usually get
all the refreshes, even yeah, I was just like, no,
absolutely not.
Speaker 1: Yep, it's it's weird. So it's weird for me, it's
probably normal for most people.
Speaker 2: Astrobot Bundle does have a disc I don't know, why
do you want to get this? The Astrobot Bundle is
fifty dollars cheaper then the I guess it's not good.
Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 3: Maybe it's not a slim Maybe that's what it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, slim. I have no idea. It just comes with
a game and normal one.
Speaker 1: They do do aggressive pricing on PlayStation occasionally, like they
will have discounts on some things every once in a while.
All right, let's see here. I'm gonna let's not do
that one. Uh did you see did you hear this?
The Games Mornings today and how Kochama He says the
one thing that's a real problem for him is that
everyone likes death stranding too.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Look I saw this and I saw how he's
world to note. Nope, yeah, the world tour so people
can tell U Grady is and now his no pad
of ideas for his his U underlinks to make games
about his ideas after he dies, because they probably don't
have any ideas let's do you just please Jeff admit
this guy sucks a little bit, a little.
Speaker 1: Bit, yes, of course, I mean like of course, being like,
oh man, that just really bothers me that my game
is universally beloved by everyone who's played it, of course, Mike,
but in a fun way that I enjoy, Like you're
gonna suck suck like this.
Speaker 2: Yeah. See, let's see what he would say if his
game got a sixty percent Metacritic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd be real strow. What I bet he's like.
He wants it to be divisive, is what he is.
What he's trying to get at. I guess, all right, sure,
that's fine.
Speaker 2: I didn't don't remember hearing that we made metal gear
solid and yeah, sure, yeah whatever. Look he's yeah, he's
a he is. That guy's a little weird. I'm not
trying to hold it super against them, but it's it's obnoxious.
It's a little obnoxious. And I do think that his
obnoxiousness has been increasing in the last several years or so.
Speaker 1: I think it might be just like where out it's
welcome a little bit faster, because I don't know how
much it always has felt kind of this way, but
it's like it is the same trick in some ways
and it maybe gets a little bit grading. All right,
I mean, hey, desth Trainting two is going to be
in Los Angeles, Sydney, Tokyo, Paris, London's Soul, Taipei, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Riad,
Sal Paolo and Luca.
Speaker 3: If people want to go check it out. If you're
in those cities, most or can't.
Speaker 2: Go to a tour. Device of Art has world tours
like this.
Speaker 1: Jeff, that's right now, But that's he says, it's not
that because everyone who's played it.
Speaker 2: Loves it, So that's right. And he regrets it.
Speaker 3: He regrets making it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it hurts him.
Speaker 1: Uh s and Case CEO steps down after heavily marketed
Fatal Fury City of the Wolves seemingly it's seemingly muted launch. Yeah,
game just didn't seem to really catch on, and it
had a big marketing campaign, so they did spend a
lot of money trying to get in front of people.
Speaker 2: What do you think happened here? Yeah, it's hard to say.
I mean, part of it is just that Fatal Fury
and S and K stuff in general is so hardcore, right,
that brand has always been kind of for the hardcore games,
even going back to the days of those arcade machines
and you know them, so doing the pixelated, high detailed graphics,
well after that was a thing. Fatal Fury was always
kind of in the Shadow street Fighter but people love it,
but they're just you know, how many of those fans
are there, and how many of them were already served
enough by just being able to play as Terry Ami
and Street Fighter six, right, don't you know? For me personally,
it was a lot of the whole well, what is
this DJ doing in this game? Was Ronaldo in the game? Yeah?
Like and you know, maybe a lot of people don't
know about, don't care about, but again, like it these
games are for a relatively savvy hardcore audience. Maybe that
did turn on the people off For me, just there
wasn't that much of an audience for it. And putting
your logo in the WrestleMania Matt doesn't really mean anything.
You could spend that money, and I know that they
had money to spend there. I think maybe more the
money should have gone in the game and we could
have seen that because it's hard because you do a
street Fighter sex, Street for Sex is just a prettier
looking game than it. I know some people might prefer
the art style and City of the Wolves here, but
it's just a tough comparison. Street Fire Sex is not
that old. It is still going and there's just enough
kind of weird things here to throw people off.
Speaker 4: My brother in christ Why is this DJ and fucking
Christiano Ronaldo in the game and we don't even have
like a pretty render of of it. Can and chan
Lee there they're gonna be in this video game. The
announced it when before the game came, like, right, what
what's going on?
Speaker 2: Why? It should have been a lot louder about that
Street Fighter collaborations stuff.
Speaker 4: It's a no brainer. Who the fuck was like Christiano? Now,
even if he's the biggest if you see, you first
need to sell it to the to the fighting game players,
and you're not gonna sell it to them Christiano Ronaldo
and cell them. We can with the other, but the
other biggest fighting game in the their south right now,
it's insane, It makes no sense.
Speaker 2: The game play is good, Oh, it's just very it's
very similar to Street Fighter Sex. It really it is,
It really is in a.
Speaker 4: Lot of ways.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, you know, and like part of it is
because Street Fighter has kind of been becoming a little
bit more like Fatal Fear in some ways. Maybe you're
a little bit more like in some ways. I don't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there there is a there's a generalization. This is
this every fighting game now has it became very homogeneous
with the way the characters feel like they're trying to
make it more welcome into the to the players. So
there's standardizing all the older In older games, different characters
will wake up at different timing or different characters like
in different video games now and every video game is
that everybody wakes up at the same time when you
not them down. Every always have at the same time.
Everybody has that one space like two supers and one
in a couple of special Everything is time theized. So
the games feel kind of samey a little bit. No,
not a lot of games are specifics, but it's just that, yeah,
and specifically there isn't k this stuff feels more like
that because they were inspired at the beginning by a
Street Fighter and vice versa, you know, so yeah, you
can't feel that way now.
Speaker 2: Parties like, I mean, what were their expectations here, right,
Like they probably spent too much money marketing it, thinking
that they could just brute force the game into a
higher tier of popularity. Like what, what did the best
selling Fatal Fury ever sell?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, the best selling like traditional fighting game, like even that,
Like they were kind of I mean, I think they
were thinking that could be the ceiling.
Speaker 3: That's like, yeah, but you're not going to reach the
ceiling with this.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. I mean, even Street Fighters sick.
So it's not like that the game that has sold
ten million copies, it's like sold up to it has
sold five million copies, and that Street Fighter and they're
the ones that are gonna sell better than anybody. So yeah,
I don't know what expectations were. Mortal Combat it's a
whole different thing, and we know what you know, the
things that it has going for it, for sure, But yeah,
so I don't know. It's a little bit of a
bummer because I like the idea of more of these
kind of old school fighting game franchises coming back.
Speaker 1: They definitely don't need these big marketing campaigns though. They
should just be focused on their audience.
Speaker 2: That was silly and if they thought that the Ronaldo
thing was going to like help them. I hope they
maybe they see that that backfired. I don't know.
Speaker 4: You know who? Do you know who is going to
save the IFGC? The fighting game community is nanning by
this game, maybe by eight and they has absolutely no money. No,
no one's putting money on the game. This game is
gonna save everybody loose like shit, but it has so
much harder. I love it. It's coming up like a
Hunter Hunter Nant Impact is coming in July, the sixteen
of July. That game is gonna it has no money.
Nobody put money on that game, but that game is
going to be so good. I put my money on
this hit. Let's go.
Speaker 3: Hopefully they finished soon so they can get to work
on Pickman five.
Speaker 2: Please? All right? That's what eighteen did that do? All right?
Speaker 1: Industry veteran Jade Raymond leaves the Sony owned Haven Studios.
This happened a little bit ago. If you're trying to
keep track Haven Studios.
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 1: That is a newly acquired or relatively newly acquired studio
by Sony PlayStation Studios that was working on fair games.
Speaker 2: Do you remember what that is? Everybody?
Speaker 3: Mike, do you remember what fair Game, and that.
Speaker 2: Was that one that I was reminded of its existence
when they canceled Concord and we were all like, oh no, yeah,
this thing doesn't have much of a chance.
Speaker 1: After Google pulled the plug on Stadia, former Ubisoft veteran
Jade Raymond left the company and in twenty twenty one
founded our own studio called Haven. She would develop a
live service game called fair Fair Games for Sony, and
just a year later, Sony.
Speaker 3: Bought the developer. Yeah, they were like working.
Speaker 1: With Sony for a while before Sony came in and
like actually gave money to buy the entire studio, so
they We've not seen much of Fair Games since, like
a state state of play last year.
Speaker 3: Maybe I can't keep track of it.
Speaker 1: No explanation was given here about what is happening, but
it's probably not because Raymond is so happy and everything
is going well, says this story. There were some reports
that you know, and how true this is, I don't know.
This is not me like a corroborating anything here, that
there were recent internal play tests of this game, and
I mean, and now she's gone, So I think people
are trying to draw a connection between those two things.
And again we don't know if that first one is
true or not. But okay, so maybe the game is
not in a good state and Jade Raymond's like, well,
I'm going to resign or something like that, or Sony's
moving on because they want to try to rescue this game.
I don't know, we're speculating. Maybe it's something else completely,
I don't know, but I'll say this, Mike, it's a
bummer because Jade Raymond is someone who worked at Ubisoft
a long time ago and was like one of the
faces of overseeing Assassin's Creed and turning that into kind
of this juggernaut that it is. And then since then
she has left and worked at a bunch of different
places where she wasn't able to actually to actually ship
a video game. And now it seems like the same
thing is happening yet again. You know, she was at
Google Stadia for years, a place that claimed it was
gonna make video games, although we all knew better. But yeah,
this this sucks for her.
Speaker 2: I'm sad. Yeah, it seems rough, and you know, maybe
there's a chance of just her work's mostly done on
this thing, right, like you know, right, like what do
they what mean, for a creative, how much more work
can there be for the life service game at a
certain point, maybe there's an iffinite amount of work if
it's a life service game. I don't know, maybe she's
had enough it or yeah, maybe just once again it's
falling aparts. I mean our gut instincts when we look
at fair games, is that what makes this different from
con It's kind of hard to see. It's sometimes with
live service games it feels like a flip of the coin,
for sure, But we also all had a bad feeling
as soon as we saw Concord, and then that ended
up worse than we thought. I don't know. Part of
me is like, they're still going to try to release
fair games. You may as well see, but even that's expensive, right,
I mean, think about we're talking about the marketing just
sunk costs for Fatal Fury. I mean, they did all
sorts of stuff for Concord. They had that secret level
of episode about it and all this stuff and the
expense of cg AF. Fair game does come out, jet,
I bet it is somewhat quietly and then they'll sort
of see if maybe it surprises them, But otherwise, you
know that thing could never come out.
Speaker 1: Right, like launching in some form of like an early
access at like twenty bucks and then as you like
improve it over time or something like that, and now
here's the one point over release and it's thirty dollars.
Speaker 2: Or something like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that this game, the last we heard about
it at all was a few months ago, in the
wake of Concord and everything else happening. This game was
delayed into twenty twenty six. Apparently it was supposed to
come out this year, but now it's twenty twenty six.
There's a chance we just never see it again, right,
that's maybe even the most likely scenario.
Speaker 2: Could go the way of the Hyaenas for sure. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, How are you feeling about PlayStation sort of overall
in the wake of.
Speaker 2: This Oh gosh, I don't know. They went so hard
on that live service thing and it looked good. They
had hell Divers, but then you know, a bunch of
stuff canceled, including the freaking Last of Us game, the
Concord Disaster. Marathon wasn't for me when I played that alpha.
What was your sense did you get the sense that
there's excitement for marathon after people were checking that thing out.
Speaker 1: No, no, I got the sense that people are like,
I don't think this is for me.
Speaker 2: And then Christian, what's your game? Arc greaders?
Speaker 4: Out graders? Yeah, out graders came by and she just
ate them, then lunch and destroy them.
Speaker 1: And then the ARC Creators test came out and everyone
was talking about that.
Speaker 2: Who played that.
Speaker 3: There was people who was like, this is real ship.
Speaker 4: Yeah. People were felt when about the marathon, they felt
cautially excited. They were like, yeah, there are some things
here for the people.
Speaker 2: That like it. Yes, there's something here.
Speaker 4: Yeah. But the art reader was, we love this ship.
This feels incredible. Like the reception was so much candid,
so much exciting about it. So yeah, it totally still
the construction shooter discoursed at the time for sure.
Speaker 2: And now a bunchie's facing allegations of plagiarism of using
work again. Just before.
Speaker 4: By the way, I don't know what's going on over there,
because it happened with the Destiny were some icons for abilities.
They were also like lifting sum from somewhere else years ago.
Speaker 2: Process they have an art team. I know they keep
firing people, but they should still have like artists to
make assets. I don't know, biz are Yep.
Speaker 1: The one one one of the ways that it was
confirmed that that art was stolen is the person who
made the art joked on social media a couple of
years ago that they snuck loss the reference to Loss
the comic from Charlot Delete comic into one of their things,
and that was found in Marathon on that piece of
art that person made.
Speaker 2: That was that pretty bad? Yep, that's pretty bad. So yeah,
that's that's bad. I don't know, like I just I
don't know if PlayStation has a good strategy right now.
For the longest time it was well charted two did
really well. Is just make a bunch of games like that,
and then that became prohibitively expensive and slow. So then
it became we got to find some life service hits.
I don't think that's happening. So I don't know what
else they can pivot to here. Yep, you know.
Speaker 1: I think the good news is for people I saw
when we started this topic, Mike, people say, hey, where
where is PlayStation?
Speaker 2: Where are are they?
Speaker 1: I think the good news is they probably are mostly
ready to reload from a lot of big studios over
the next year or two like it will. It's not
all gonna happen on one day, but over the next
year or two of them having stay of plays and
summer game fest uh, you know, appearances of whatever stripe
or you know, a showcase if they have. If they
actually go that route, I think they're gonna start like
bringing in those major studios to tell people about their
games that are coming out in the next couple of years,
and then and interglact it can sort of hover over
all of those and be that thing that's just a
little bit further out and.
Speaker 2: We have that we we you know, we have Wolverine. Okay,
so there's stuff, yeah, and we know it's coming. But boy,
you you you you kind of wish there was more
of it. You know. I loved Astrobot. Boy, I loved
getting tastes of that, and am I thinking now, I
was like, yeah, yet anything else like that? You got
more of that stuff back there, And it's kind of like,
how about seven more years of the you know, each
TV style games. Again, they're good, they are good, They're
sometimes they're great really well, yeah, but I got tired
of them a little bit for a reason. And maybe
I'll be in the mood for them again too. I
don't know, but it's not the thing that's going to
super excite me probably.
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, I think that's going to do it
for the headlines, unless there's something else you wanted to
talk about, Mike, But I'm sure we got some super
chats people.
Speaker 2: A lot of people are concerned. We didn't see children
sink cold, but we talked about that in the very beginning.
I caught that one. Yeah, thanks everybody. Yeah, rid race up.
Some people were getting mixed up because Ridridge is sixty
four is announced for Japan. We already had Ridrie. We
have that, ye trust me. I know I played it,
so we're good there. All right, all right, I had
to sew it up.
Speaker 4: But for a little bit, did you talk about the
Nintendo switch to the text specs that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't bring it up. What do you want to
talk about? I don't know.
Speaker 4: I just saw him on the on the duck and
rereading them a little bit, and they seemed pretty big.
I don't people were kind of look warm after the thing,
but they seem pretty good. Is it?
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's tough because you know people are
reading this and then they're also seeing that the you
know that Chinese YouTuber who got the board the motherboard
and was like kind of scraping things down and getting
the information.
Speaker 2: It's like, look, this thing was it's like a.
Speaker 1: Copyrighted in twenty twenty one or something like that, And
so a lot of people are like, man, have they
been sitting on the underlying tech here since twenty twenty one?
Speaker 3: And probably it probably happened.
Speaker 1: And so if people are like worried about that because
it's like, oh, this is this gonna be another situation
where Nintendo starts a generation with old mobile tech, it's like, well,
it's not going to be exactly like the switch because
this time around, they everyone involved knows it works, and
video knows that if they put every piece of technology
they possibly can into the switch too can act as
like this foundational jumps like springboard for that stuff getting
supported elsewhere, and they'll have like a long term reason
to reinvest in these things. So I think that the
switch to is going to be just fine in terms
of its technical specifications, because a lot of it is
what's not said.
Speaker 3: A lot of it is how is DLS that's going
to work?
Speaker 1: And how do some of these other bespoke components, like
the dedicated decompression tool that will take a load off
the CPU while it decompresses stuff at a very high rate.
It's like, okay, yeah, that clearly is going to make
a difference for this handheld system. So the proof's going
to be in the games, and we're gonna get those
here very soon, and we'll just kind of know and
we'll have a good idea of how like viable this
thing is going to be long term.
Speaker 4: Yeah, to me, it's weird because we've already seen the games.
In the games, look, they're looking pretty good. So I
don't know if it's like, oh, there's an old chip.
Speaker 2: It's kind of weird to already see if the games
look good and then see the specs and be like, well,
maybe the games will look bad. What do you mean, Yes,
I don't know. Well whatever, I'm excited. All right, let's
take a break.
Speaker 1: We'll come right back and we'll do some super chats
and then get into the rest of the show right
after this. All right, here we are back into Game
Mess Decides. Mike Minati, could you please read some super
chats for me?
Speaker 2: Yes, Woke Gopa, gool Boy, says, just finish and or
and now my soul hurts people. Yeah, I don't think
i've heard anything about from you yet about Yeah. I mean,
it was just it was perfect.
Speaker 3: They nailed it. It was way Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was so worried that like you would hate season
two or something, your favorite TV show would be ruined.
So I'm glad you still really like it. Yeah, I
kind of what's that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think I think I will, yes, because there's like
there's aspects of it where like you hear people discuss
and right now I'm in the like the afterglow of
kind of just like absorbing all the other stuff that
people are talking about. I do really miss a more
civilized age talking about it. But I completely respect the
decisions that they made regarding the BDS movements boycott. So
I'm like, hey, I get it, but a boy I
would die to hear them talk about this stuff.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm kind of enjoying that. And I'm probably
gonna go rewatch.
Speaker 1: Those last three episodes. It really just ended in such
an amazing way. And then you know the three episodes
before that, like it's not just me anymore. Everyone's out
there saying this is the best Star Wars we've ever had.
It really kind of crushed to the point where I
think this will be have long term of roberations of
people coming back to the show for forever now.
Speaker 2: So just very happy, all right. Next up is from
sign from Saskatchewan. One says bike club has altered my
YouTube algorithm and shows me loads of terrible games, Like
have you seen the Disney Europe only NYES games? They're
sixteen bit dmakes what if he means eight bit? No,
I have not. I've heard that there are these terrible
Europe on the Disney games because usually the Disney games
are either like good or fine. So I didn't because
before I looked for bad ones just because I thought
might be playing mcdan and I couldn't see him. So
we'll have to look into these. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm always curious about like long late support games that
come out of nowhere, and sometimes they are adaptations of
games that you mostly think of as sixteen bit games.
Speaker 2: Uh. Next up is from Eli Miracle says first week
of real employee Mike co owner Minati our co owners employees,
I guess I'm still an employee. No, oh no, when
you're not an employee. You are your boss, yeah, yeah,
but I'm nobody's bosses. We're all co owners. We got
to get some employees to push around. It's like almost
like a cooperative model. So I guess from that side
of things, maybe we are employees of our own you know,
co op business or something like that. But whatever, it
doesn't matter. Cooperative compadres. Uh back, it says completely unrelated
to my last super chat Mike, who'd look better as
Gaston Jeffer Dan YouTube channel Big Old World's video It's
fun about boss Fight Big Old Words video. Excuse me you?
There would be a much better guest on than Dan.
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of the power is in the
hair of Ghistan, right, yeah, at least some of.
Speaker 2: It, and just just almost almost everything except I think
that I think Dan might have more chest hair than you.
Speaker 3: Definitely, yes, that's good for guess. I'm smooth like a dolphin.
Speaker 2: Brendon says, please rank these Nintendo Racing Slash Sport characters
based on name only, uh Dion Blaster, Mimi Lea Moose, Gurley, Fatty, Roger, Buster,
Octo Man, Lord Biber. I'm gonna say that Mimi le
Moose is at the top and everyone else can go straight.
Speaker 1: The hell uh, Deon Blaster is the one name I
actually recognized, so I'll go with Deon Blaster.
Speaker 2: And Deon b Where's jumping Jim Rivers?
Speaker 1: That give us jumping Jim Rivers? We would really have
popped for jumping Jim Rivers.
Speaker 2: Simon's back, sayings Rascal, Mike looks like a deep bag,
Vikings fan. I love how you go and buying it.
Don't read the manual for first episode? Is it a
rule one does nothing straight to say? Oh what, It's
just it seemed like such a simple gave that I
like refuse to believe I wasn't grasping something with the controls.
I didn't think there'd be a break button in the platformer.
Speaker 1: I now I'm like thinking about I think Bubbsy had
a break button too. That's just a weird era of
video games. Oh my god, everyone's gonna watch Blake Club
if you haven't, though I know most people here probably have.
Speaker 3: But Mike just did a great job of looking cool.
Speaker 4: He looks so fucking cool.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, see snack, that says Roscoto. So I
don't know, Rascatto, Roscoto, help us It's proud when people
do the d jokes because I know we're supposed to
get them.
Speaker 1: I Knowscoto, Oh, Christian fingering it out.
Speaker 2: This isn't his first fucking language.
Speaker 1: Le mean, listen, we are constantly insulted on this platform.
Speaker 3: All right, I get it.
Speaker 2: Rest code. Oh very good, good job, Christian job snacked that.
Thank you night, Trauma says when I watched the pack stream,
I cried unexpected manly tears into a plate of pulled
pork and ribs when Jeff said, you all bought it.
Ben a doer since almost a star, giant bomb, love
the screw, thank you, thanking Trauma. It is, it is.
It is always really nice to hear that from people
who have been around since almost the beginning. Yeah, you know,
there's there is a legacy there, and you know, when
I was just contributing, like I felt that a little bit,
but now it's like, oh, I kind of, you know,
own part of this thing. That's all very important. So
upholding that and making it still mean something to the
people of us cared about it is important. Yeah. Yeah,
kind of like doing right by the many many.
Speaker 1: Hours worth of work that you know, years of work
that the guys put in originally to build up Giant
bomb up in the first place.
Speaker 3: It's like, I just want to respect that and do
right by it. So yeah, that's the plan.
Speaker 2: Next to a screaming man, it says great first week
of Indie GB content starring Bruh Hot Grub and so
cool son of NATO employee, and that NATO thing is
still went through me for the biggest Oh yeah, yeah,
that's just like I just was like, here's a word cloud,
go ahead and cross off the ones you are sure
will not be in this game, NATO, what would have
been like one of my first for sure. Let go
my gir and says Mike, please say gurst men for me.
They go perfect. Yeah, I figured it out. That s
that I was getting roight up a little bit. Yeah,
brad lynch Reno says, New Super Mario Brothers is nineteen
years old. To know, it's almost as old now as
Super Mario Brothers was no no time.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, that sounds right.
Speaker 2: I was looking at it looks pretty old. Oh yeah, sh.
Speaker 1: New super Mario Brothers is someone who loves Mario Brothers games.
New Super Mario Brothers is a bee, It's a b
It's like a, yeah, that's all right, it's got set
out of it's.
Speaker 2: At the time, it was like so long since we
got a new and so I forget a lot.
Speaker 1: But even then I was like, that was I think
at that time I would have said it was an
eight out of ten.
Speaker 4: I spend more time played in mini games than the
game itself.
Speaker 2: Sure, it's no Sonic Menia, it's no Mega Man nine
even in terms of like no yeah two Dy revivals.
Speaker 1: Definitely, And you know, it's also lower on the tier
of new Super Mario Brothers games. There are some very
good new Super Mario Brothers games, even though that series
obviously quickly became sort of like you know, wrote in a.
Speaker 2: Lot of ways. Yeah, pretty much everyone thinks We's the
best one, right.
Speaker 1: I think Jeremy Parrish put we you on number one
on his list. I think the WI one is the best.
Speaker 2: The Wei one was like just an HD then that
would be pretty easy. I do, like, you know, the
Wei one does look it looks crazy? Yeah, absolutely, Actually
that's the first HD Mario game we ever had because
it was a Wei launch game, isn't that. Yeah, that's
that's very weird. Yes, and trail woof says, have you
guys ever played Slay the Spire. I'm getting reobsessed with
it and I'm dying for that sequel. Any chance EA
starts Early Access? Oh, Early Access not Elettron to guards.
Any chance Early Access starts for it soon? Gosh, I
have not, and I'm been me. I've watched Bailey play
it on her stream a bunch, so that's most of
my exposure to it. It seems like something I would like.
Speaker 1: I know, I kind of want to like force myself
into a situation where I have to play it, But
it's like we have so many things we want to
make now at Giant Bomb. I'm not gonna like promise
like a stream of that, but this is like this
and what is it?
Speaker 2: Monster Train?
Speaker 1: People love those games and I definitely want to spend
some time. You know, I've been meaning to get back
to streaming on the weekends. Maybe I could pick something
like this because I have always wanted to play Slay
the Spire.
Speaker 2: Jordan says, looking forward to you all setting up your
switch tos on the couch at Nikki's Grandma's house during
SGF or wherever you and uh, that is that something
you're thinking about? Much like the switch to situation or
are you too busy with everything else?
Speaker 1: No, I'm definitely thinking about it. But it's like one
of those things where it's I'm gonna want to just
go all out.
Speaker 2: When we're there in La, it's like, we're gonna be together.
Speaker 1: We'll get GB at night figured out somehow someway I
got to say.
Speaker 2: It's like like earlier this evening, I'm like, man, I
don't know.
Speaker 1: And then you know, got some updates from the guys
who were all working on this and say, okay, maybe
we can still make that happen. Really looking forward to it,
and then it's like okay, and then we can use
some of those spaces to maybe record some stuff of
the switch too. That would be really fun. But that's
as far as I've thought about it. It's like, that
would be cool if we could do that, you know.
Speaker 2: How busy we are. Other people were like, maybe we
can go to Disney at the end, and I was like, guys,
I don't think we can go to Disney. Yeah. Yeah,
that was quite a moment.
Speaker 1: That was quite a moment where it's like we were
taught about maybe not even at the end, we didn't
fully understand the schedule that we were even talking about
till you were like, guys, we can't go to Disney.
Speaker 2: I'm like, you're right, Mike's right. I'll find another excuse
for us to go to a theme park or something.
I think Halloween Horneck is going to be fun this year.
Speaker 3: Maybe I think that would be great.
Speaker 2: All right? Cool? Next up is from uh l grug
oh no El Sacy Sacy. This is just similar to
the previous one, praying that the switches reach you in La.
Mine's gonna be here. So I'm leaving kind of later
on the fifth and might it's supposed to come in
the morning. I am so concerned Jeff though that I
am going to the Best Buy midnight launch with ag
because he's picking his up and I'm I think I
ordered a carry in case there. Anyways, they're gonna have some.
If there's like one there, I will just buy one.
Speaker 1: Then it looks I mean, we know because Aj said
this is exactly what you would do, right, he knows.
Speaker 2: And then like, look, if I have two switches, I'll
find somebody who wants to buy a switch for costs.
I'm not gonna like sell it for a profit. I'll
know exactly I find something. I just want to really
make sure I have my switch to before I leave
for La.
Speaker 1: Yeap, okay, I think, I Yeah, I think you're gonna
be able to work it out. And then yeah, I
think I'll just have to wait to them in LA
to get mine, but it'll be there. I should be
in LA by the time it arrives at Nicky's house,
so I'm looking forward to it.
Speaker 2: Al Greg says Man that Rascal game looked like it
sucked immediately, like there wasn't a buffer time for it
to get bad. It's just bad right from the jump. Pinche, Yeah,
it's pretty rough. My My one hope, Jeff, is that
I'm making good proggies and that I'm even further in
the game than you guys would like to admit I am.
That's my hope right now. But I don't know how
many levels there.
Speaker 1: Are, right, I would say, like, I think at your
current pace, we're looking at three episodes.
Speaker 2: That's what I think. But it's hard.
Speaker 1: It's hard to tell because who knows what an episode
could do, you know, or what a level could do
from one to the.
Speaker 2: Next, right, And I don't have lives anymore, so, like
I gotta start being these levels in one go now,
which is super exciting. What did you think of my
idea for a Dan's game?
Speaker 1: By the way, I think that that's probably right. I
think I want to do that.
Speaker 2: We don't always do it just based off the name.
Possibility is the opposite with Rascal, but might right. The
name was the last consideration.
Speaker 1: I mean, the first consideration is will they look funny
dressed up this way? Usually, but sometimes it's like now
that this person's just got to play this game.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be good, all right. Next up is from
looking with my girk in is people in Xbox? Is
people related to pip Boy?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: I think it's just a coincidence. The pit pit Boy
is completely different species. I got to explain Pipo Pepo
excuse me on the Aftermath podcast because someone wrote in
there and asked about Pepo.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I always always happy to represent Pepo and
I go by.
Speaker 2: We I didn't get to watch I was doing that
quick look.
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, no, it was, it was. It was
really good. It was so great to hang out with
those guys. You know, they are doing an independent games
media website, you know, and they do the podcast as well,
but their main stuff is writing content on the internet,
and I just think that's awesome that they're able to
make that work.
Speaker 2: I think I'm going to be on Acts of the
Blood Gods, so I'm going to be doing a little
guesting and promoting my stuff here soon, so I'm looking
forward to that at Sterling, Jones says, I'm a long
time casual listener and I just subbed a giant on
for the first time ever. So happy we've got the
best possible ending out of this fiasco, and incredibly proud
of you all for pulling it off. Thank you, Thank
you so much everybody for the support. Like it's been Uh,
it's been good, right, it's making us feel good. We
do appreciate it. We have noa you know, I see
numbers that don't necessarily know what they mean, but I
know that I'm happy, Like it's it looks like people
have really showed up and we appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's we're definitely at a point where it's like, Okay,
we could see how things are going going to come
together as we start like getting everything routed too the
right bank and stuff like that, and uh, I'm just
excited that this can turn into a business and we
can keep Giant Bomb going.
Speaker 2: It's cool. Next up is from SAS Squatching. He says,
Rest and peace, Joe Don Baker forever Mitchell. Yeah, yep, yep,
rest in peace to a.
Speaker 1: Real Yeah, Joe Don Baker's you know, Mystery Science Theater
three thousands favorite son, but also just like an actor
that I genuinely enjoyed. He was in a couple of
James Bond movies and I always like to see him there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he was in Golden I Yeah, right, Okay,
what would I have known from from a Mystery Science
Theater thing?
Speaker 1: So Mitchell is the big one, but he's got He's
got a few others as well.
Speaker 2: Have I seen Mitchell? I maybe I didn't see that one.
What the hell? It's a classic. Next up is so
Dot the gamers says, congratulations boys, Jeff, do you have
an updated on the PlayStation event you report on? And
what are the chances we see Wolverine, Red Nine or
iron Man? Yeah?
Speaker 1: It's you know those other games. I'm I'm I'm not sure.
I haven't really been asking around about any of them.
But as far as the PlayStation event. No, I don't
have an update, and I've been too busy to ask.
I am kind of at the point where it's like,
if something's happening, it's probably gonna find its.
Speaker 2: Way to me. So I'm being a little patient. Yeah,
what are you thinking? That's just embarrassing. It took me
to realize Red nine is Resident Evil nine probably, right, man. Yeah,
I mean I hope we see Residentvial nine or whatever
the next rem Resident Evil game, either a placeation thing
or at Summer game fest. I hope like at some
point this summer we see that. I think that's very likely. Yeah,
losty and says Grub Any chance for us to invest
into Giant Bum? Why are you asking just him? I'm
as much shit owner actually right now, he's much more
of a noted than Yes, theoretically, I mean, you know what,
you know, I don't think either us foresee a lot
of profits in that sense. If we had that much profits,
we would just want to hire people, I suppose, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you know we will be we'd be
willing to talk to investors to hear him out and
what they're looking for and things like that. But it's
like that's not been our plan right now. Our plan
is to turn it into a business that makes money
on its own. And then you know, we're not looking
for an exit strategy, right, We're not. This is not
us like building up the business so we can sell
it off. Again, we're building up the business so it
could be something that makes us money so we could
survive in the long term and Giant Bomb can be healthy.
Speaker 2: So yeah, we'd be willing to hear anything.
Speaker 1: But otherwise you we'll give you ways to put your
money into the business and support us in different ways
for sure.
Speaker 2: Right right, But we're not sharing our profit STAMU, which
again I expect there to be very little of mm hm.
Mikey O'Leary says, as a Bostonian, I'm a purist, but
I'm now converted. It makes absolutely zero sense at all.
How good that salted caramel lobster role at the Omni is.
I had a few people taking like go there at
taking pictures and showing me. I loved that people were
going to this restaurant getting that thing. Were you guys
at the Omni again? Did you get that partake in
that thing? Again?
Speaker 1: So some of us were at the Omni, I was
at the Seaport Hotel, which is just like a two
minute walk down the sidewalk there, right next to right
next door.
Speaker 2: Uh, but we were in uh we were.
Speaker 1: In a back of our's room and Stacy's like, I'm
downstairs at dinner. Do you want do you want me
to order for you guys? You guys come down and
have dinner. And I was like, I looked at back,
I'm like lobster rolls. And he's like, yeah, that's where
she's at, Like please, lobster rolls. Please, And she had
to like order like four for us and all this stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3: It was very good.
Speaker 1: I was that's the first time I had it because
I didn't order it last year. I think I had
the fish tacos or something, which were good. This was crazy, It's.
Speaker 2: Like, what how is it this good?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So good. Everett, if you're in Boston and the by
the Convention Center, go the Omni, get that salted caramel
lobster roll. Oh that's the ticket. Oh that's right.
Speaker 1: Jan Jan For a minute there did not have a
hotel at all. They like did not book work for him.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Oops, yep, that's okay. You can just sleep with Jeff,
like I did that one time. Exactly.
Speaker 3: I did have I did actually have another queen bed
in my room, so yeah.
Speaker 2: You could have easy peasy. We might have to start
getting used to that. We had to book our own
rooms up Tony nuts and says Bungeie, bringing back Marathon
as an extraction shooter is a case of incredibly fumbling
the bag. But there's ever a franchise begging for a
Doom twenty sixteen style reboot, this was it. Yeah. I
do remember when they were showing that trailer. I was like, oh,
this is how they can make another Halos. They're just
gonna bring back Marathon and then they said extraction shooter. Yeah,
and I was like, oh, And you know, at the time,
I at least got it, And now it's it seems
like they're already kind of missing the window there, and
now I once again don't get it. I don't know. Yeah,
I'm ahead.
Speaker 4: They're too deep into the life service oh yeah stuff.
So oh sure, that's kind of the sauce now, so
they do they It's kind of funny, you guys. I
feel like the best part of their games are the
single player campaign, so it's kind of weird, you know.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: I think that they were just like, hey, the next
game really does also have to be live service, it
really has.
Speaker 3: To make enough money on its own.
Speaker 1: To pay for all of this whatever Bungeie is, and
so they just they necessarily couldn't make a single player game,
which stinks because I think they would make an awesome
one these days.
Speaker 2: Yep. Next up is from tg I f Bramalgia, who
says I was on a work trip and missed the
amazing news. Congrats Pennett's thank you so much, TGIF appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Thank you so much, mister fibromyalgia.
Speaker 2: Rad Gohs Marenescu Renescue says, any update, if if it
will be a place to showcase. So I stay to play,
keep up, keep up the good work.
Speaker 3: I will, you know what, I'll ask tonight.
Speaker 1: All right, no promises, because you know, I can't force
people to tell me anything, but I'll ask.
Speaker 3: I'll ask tonight and maybe have.
Speaker 2: Something for game lest mornings in the morning and put
video here, says practice soul Cawber two. Dan is going
to challenge you. I don't want to practice. We'll just
well we'll go into it with you know, day one
the same level of readiness there. I played soa cobra
one with him when I visited him the one time,
and he did be me more, but I held my
own Okay. He seemed to be surprised how well I did.
I think he mostly dominates people at it and I
didn't really Okay, So and so I played more Soul
Cowver too than I did once. Maybe I'll do better,
Maybe I'll played a lot more one than two. But
I played some too, I think. He says, I fuck
with Jeff smooth like a dolphin grub.
Speaker 3: Thank you or or or or or or or.
Speaker 2: For it what I said.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely more of a yeah.
Speaker 2: Alex w P says heading to work, but just wanted
to say love you guys, Love you too, Alex, thank
you so much. Good day at work. Chris Pratt says, hurt,
Mike looks cool. So I took a look, and wow,
Mike Son, he's so cool. The motor is going to
become obsessed with you. Now watch out. No No, Chase
Kennedy says, Packers, Bears, Lions, Brown's Bengals suck goal.
Speaker 3: All right, we'll have fun with that. Vikings fan Joe.
Speaker 2: Beezer says, is this the Lion's year? What do you
think of the schedule? Grub?
Speaker 1: I think the schedule is it's fine, manageable. Uh you know,
if that schedules too much for the Lions, they don't
deserve to win, that's for sure.
Speaker 2: So uh yeah, I feel good about it. Beezer says
content idea, as Mr Mario, You're welcome. I feel like today,
by showing Dan's weird, Blood's not, we did the opposite
of as Mr.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we did uh yeah, repulsive theater, like like if
you see it, you actually have to look away and
leave the video and repeal your subscription to Giant Bombs.
Speaker 2: So just great work. Maybe people something nice. I don't know.
That's an episode without Dan? Is it? Bailey gonna be
on next week? We can? I think? So yeah, there
we go. We'll put Dan on the bench after show.
Everybody not Blood ecto coolest that's currently playing Skyrim and
maybe wonder how many Bethesa games you guys have beaten?
The main Fallout four, follow three, Well four, Fall three, Oblivion, Skyrim, Starfield, Oh, Starfield, Yeah,
seventy six does not not. Seventy six of New Vegas
does not count. I'm not beating Tomorrow once, so I say, yeah,
I think those five may three excited.
Speaker 1: I don't I have not beat the main questions Skyrim
or Oblivion, because why would I do that.
Speaker 2: That's not that's not how that game plays. Yeah, well
it's not very hard at least I went and that. Yeah. Yeah,
but it's like yeah, I'm just like mah, definitely not
the most exciting thing to do. Yeah, those games, it's Starfield.
I mean, I don't know. There wasn't too much of
do sides to make quest Sometimes it felt like even
though it was okay. Next up is ep idiot Box
share this on the discord. But the baby penguin hatch
at the beginning of the pack stream. I need suggestions
for the two other eggs that will hatch soon. I
suggested giving them all like Blake Club names. So if
we have Tolkoto, maybe the one could be Grub and
the other one can be I don't know. Damn, this
is crabs Tokoto and that's Dan.
Speaker 4: That's Dan.
Speaker 2: Isn't this penguin? I want to see this penguin? Yeah, oh,
people would be a good penguin named though, Oh ship,
that's true. People's great. Yeah, go go with Pipo for me. Yeah,
I like that. Okay, there you go. Pepo's pretty good.
Big fresh thraty seven says, seems like Nintendo just revealed
that Captain to will have online co op et effort
switch to do it together. You're weirdo. Did that game
always have offline co op?
Speaker 1: I think there was some sort of cooperative multiplayer thing
in there. But if this is true, if this is
if this is happening, I promise that we'll play it.
Speaker 2: I promise, yeah, we'll call it will be a giant
bump feature called Captain Chodes. Very good, Mike, thank you.
Carlos is funny, Yeah, funny guy, That's why I on
a funny website. Captain Lopez says, I'm traveling the Honduras
and don't know any of the currency, no idea how
much I'm donating. Long can we look forward to the
gipum couch at SGF. I need that we're working on it.
It's working okay at the moment, right yeah, yeah, it's
looking okay at the moment.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, it seems like like right now we've been
budgeting it out and it's like I think we can
make it make sense. It's just a matter of lining
everything up, and you know, cause it's it's two weeks out. Basically,
it's two weeks away. So we're gonna need equipment, We're
gonna need maybe need a little bit of help with
audio and stuff like that. We're gonna need the the
venue to understand what we're trying to do. So when
we need an internet access and we need a hardline,
they're able to provide that. So it's there's a lot
of logistics that go into it. But we are working
on it and I've begun reaching out to people to
schedule the couch. So yeah, I have my hopes up,
and I think you can get your hopes up to.
Speaker 2: Andrew thirteen, says caines Win. I assume it's about the Hurricanes.
Speaker 1: Yes, and this is definitely the team that I have
picked to win it because their defense is just insane.
Speaker 2: So not surprised. But it's been a close series. Oh no,
it's that the Cavs blew it.
Speaker 4: Boy.
Speaker 2: I watched the end of Game two of that series
and it was pathetic how they threw that away.
Speaker 3: I do right then it was done. It was kind
of a rough series.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, yeah, but that first sers went so well.
Oh well, when we're playoff basketball for Mikey Guardians are
still doing all right though, so that's good. Next time jobs, Yeah,
Joe Beezer says episode four hundred of Game Mes Decides
is a week before SGF and switched to launch. Yeah,
you know, we'll try to think of something special. Don't
expect anything crazy one. We're very busy too. Out of
all the one hundred milestones, four hundred is just not
that exciting. For is an ugly number, right. Nobody likes
the number four. It's it's not a great number. Three
is more track. The number five is a better number.
But three looks like a butt. That's good. That's good
for foremost like a crooked arrowhead. I don't know, depending
on how you draw it. It sucks. I hate the
number four. You heard it here, everybody. We're not doing
well with God. I love this CA's guy for Gods.
It's not related to the way he writes to Day
at all, which is again, are Jeff the food?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: But says shout out to Ken Burns. Yeah, Skip Bird's okay,
die did he? Uh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're saying that because we've got a super
chat that says shout out to ken Burns, and that's weird.
Unless he died, I'm with you. I think I don't. Yeah,
I don't think he died.
Speaker 2: I think he's okay, just making sure.
Speaker 1: I like, you know, I like, maybe guys is just
watching a good documentary right now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, how much how much Ken Burns have you watch?
Because I think I've watched five?
Speaker 4: Was the one with the fives?
Speaker 2: Forgot the fives? Oh? The Central Park I guess that
I've seen is Thomas Jefferson. I did see his newer
Benjamin Franklin one I meant to. But baseball is great
to watch that great Civil War, the wars great. Uh.
Speaker 1: There was an old one he did about the Brooklyn
Bridge and how it got and I like, I've sought
that one out a couple of times because it's like,
it's really harrowing story because it's we have to go
to the bottom of this river and build pressurized like
cabins for people to be in, and people would get
terrible bins and lots of people died making up like
just to make the fucking Brooklyn Bridge. So yeah, I've
watched quite a bit of ken Burns, but not as
much as I want to.
Speaker 2: I want to watch way more of it. Oh, yes,
shot out to ken Burns. Indeed, Nick says, here's two
dollar for the lockdown license fee. Genus, thank you, thank
you quick get ken Burns for the smell dump truck.
Speaker 1: I think so we can probably hook that up. Yeah,
I think that's my number one number this episode. I
think yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were toe Dad to not show any of
his spot blood to that tape. Deadly Virus Eva says, yes,
up to gbpremium. Let's go. Thank you so much, Deadly.
Thank you so much everybody for the support. You don't
have to, but if you want to, it is at
Giant bomb dot com slash to join what's gonna grease
all of the wheels at Giant Bomb now, So thank
you so much. Some people did also ask about ways
to give more, which is completely not necessary, but we
did set up a cofi account ko dash Fi dot
com slash Giant Bomb Kofi if case anybody wanted to
for whatever reason give more than that ten dollars a
month or whatever a year. Again not necessary, but some
people were asking, so we set that up. Everything is
super appreciate everybody, thank you. Uh chow. Roberto says, can't
wait for the next bike club. Mike's gonna look so cool.
I could. Yeah, I've gotta look so cool again, Jeff,
I do like the gun. I've got to have the
cool toy down prop. It gives you something to do, right,
It's always good to have a prop. Yes, exactly, Uh ten,
Derek says. Recently, Nick de Hate mentioned that Project double
seven and or the tomb Raider reboot and Orf among
Us two will appear at Summer Gamefest. Which of the
three do you think is most likely? In which is
the least? I mean, we sall. Surprisingly we saw the
tiniest bit of Double oh seven at the Switch to Thing,
which shocked me, but not much of it, right, God,
Wolf among Us two has Summer Gamefest written all over it,
doesn't it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Wolf among Us two probably is the most likely,
But then I do think it is Double O seven.
Speaker 3: And then way down on the list is that tomb
Raider reboot.
Speaker 2: Didn't didn't didn't we hear that it was canceled? Maybe
maybe that was a rumor. Oh no, I don't. I
don't remember anything about tomb Raider being canceled. There's a lot
of stuff and going on those studios. But maybe they
canceled them.
Speaker 3: Maybe they canceled the movie.
Speaker 1: It was a show or something. Oh, the Netflix stuff
was canceled. That's what I was thinking about.
Speaker 5: In that show.
Speaker 2: They had that one season of that animated show. I
don't think people liked it.
Speaker 1: Sure, that sounds right, okay, fair enough. But I'm curious
what they do with the reboots.
Speaker 2: I liked the the last reboot fine, but it was
a bit you know, it took itself very seriously, and
I would like to be a bit more fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, give me, give me a t Rex again.
Speaker 2: Give me a t Rex. Gwen the Hunter says, if
you could make Dicapolote dial game? Did I say that right, Jeff,
I'm so scared. Oh thank god.
Speaker 1: If you can make a tenst me not the Spanish speaker,
you can make a Disapolote style game about a moment
your childhood, what would it be?
Speaker 2: I do something about going to Yosem many nests? Uh
was magical? Gosh, that's cool. God, just say it. Oh no, well, actually,
you know you say that a game about going to
Disney as a kid would be pretty sweet.
Speaker 3: It'd be pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that'd be pretty cool. Actually, I just something about
you know, but you know, I think when you were
kids like this too. But you guys just wander the neighborhood,
just weaving in and out of friends back yards in
their house. Is just kind of coming going and coming
as we Please tell me.
Speaker 3: There was there was a creek at the end of
my street.
Speaker 2: Uh it was there was a hill.
Speaker 1: Would go down there, go past the houses down there
that they never cared, just went down to the creek
and we'd spend all day in there. Uh yeah, yeah,
that would It would be something along that probably just
like being on the street where I lived and doing
that weaving between houses and and kind of hanging out
with friends and going, you know, to one house for
a slumber party, then the next one, then going.
Speaker 2: Back to the basement. Uh that or a summer camp uh.
Speaker 1: You know, boy Scott, sum which I would we'd sleep
away intense for two weeks at a time, something along
those lines.
Speaker 2: That that would be neat. I didn't sa our camp
for a week. I didn't love it. It was okay,
it was not necessarily for me.
Speaker 1: It was always nice for me to have to feel
like autonomous and be like, oh, I'm on my own.
I could decide what I do with my day a
little bit more. And that was a very freeing feeling
for me.
Speaker 2: Uh Man, my summer I can't I phel It was
very structure. They constantly were telling us what to do.
Speaker 1: Go hear, do that, and our boy Scot summer camp
was just like a little bit more like, yeah, here's
some marribage stuff you can go do, but the rest
of the day is I kind of up to you,
like build fire, go, set up a game, play a
thing where it's like everyone in the summer Camp is
going to have a massive capture of the flag game
stuff like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was good.
Speaker 2: Mike Fitzgerald says, I bet Dan could pronounce Kofi lu
lay low. I get that. That's funny. Yep, very good. Then.
Kilo Thor says, I've been a listener Giant Bump for
years twenty sixteen, but listening again when Jeff Grubb joined
the Grow became a supremium sub excuse me, when Giant
Bond became independent. Proud of you guys. Thank you so much, Killethoria,
I really appreciate that.
Speaker 3: Yep, thank you so much good looking out.
Speaker 2: And that's it for now. We're caught up at the moment.
Thank you so much everybody for all the supertest. If
you want to send anymore, we will read them before
the end of the show. Thank you.
Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna take a break. When we come back,
we're gonna play our game. We're gonna do the Mount
Rushmore of Video Game Guns. Talk about that right after this.
Then we'll talk about what we've been playing. All right,
we're back. There were zero issues during that break. That's
the coolest thing about it. And instead me and Mike
Andadi are going to do the Mount Rushmore of Guns.
Speaker 2: Mike, what are we doing here?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: Well, Dune the Dark Ages came out. It has some
neat weapons. So you know about Rushmore of video game
Will you please write video game guns. I am very
uncomfortable with Mount Rushmore of Guns. No, no, not what
you said back at the discord. You insisted.
Speaker 4: Number one the collection because he.
Speaker 3: Of course, of course you know what, he put the
P ninety on there.
Speaker 2: He's bold. All right, good for you.
Speaker 4: Guy, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Number four is the knife missile.
Speaker 1: All right, Mike, Video game Guns, Mount Rushmore. Where do
we start.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm thinking of Doom so, I mean, BFG is
still the most famous doom gun, right, yeah, BFG nine thousand?
Does it have multiple different numbers? I just we just
do it.
Speaker 4: Is it the nine thousand the big cannon that he
gets shoot up from?
Speaker 2: Uh? I think maybe it's that's good enough.
Speaker 3: I think it's BFG nine thousand, But I'm just gonna
say BFG.
Speaker 2: Yeah. The versions found the Dealings are called BHT nine thousand. Oh,
and then those in Quake are the BFG ten k.
Yeah you could say nine thousand, yeah, BT nine thousands correct. Yeah,
I don't know. I feel like a lot of these
games would always have like the one super weapon right
inspired by this, But it's such a great name. I
hated to think about the Rock bringing the BFG on
what like Conan or some other talk show at one
point when he was in that movie. It's it's pretty iconic. YEP.
Speaker 1: I agree, I mean definitely, as soon as we said
on this, I'm like, well, obviously the BFG nine thousand
will be the first one that we talked about. Here
we are, you know, I don't even know how like
fun I find the BFG, but it doesn't matter, right,
that's not the point. It's just you want to have
something so powerful it makes the rest of the game
stupid and like romas.
Speaker 2: Jefferson is not fun, but he's on rushmore exactly parties.
Speaker 1: Yeah, bro, it's just very like corners you and you
won't stop talking. He's a huge coke head, all right.
So for me, the second thing that came to mind
was the cerebral bore from uh tur Rock which one
is the TROC two? I think si ebral Yeah, borer.
Speaker 2: I think is how you say it. It's a real
I don't know. I would not have remembered the name
of this thing, jeff that's a strike against it for me.
Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, but that just means you were out
of touch with the most importants and video games. I mean,
it says a BFG knockoff kind of the thing, right, No, no, no, so,
uh the cerebral borer can track your brain waves, Mike,
and that's important because it shoots out a homing drill
bit that like will fly through the air and it
kind of does. It goes all crazy and then it'll
fly all the way around the room and then it
just snaps into your enemy's skull and then drills a
hole in there, and then once it's in there, it explodes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got a troubled teenage life, didn't you.
Speaker 1: You should see like the all my journals where I
wrote down all my evil thoughts.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it, Yeah I thoughts.
Speaker 4: Okay, uh yeah, cool, cool.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the gravity gun from Half Life two. Yeah,
fair enough. That's pretty good too, the opposite of the
BG incorrect, doubly fun to use. So fun. And then
at the end of the game, when it gets powered up,
it could pick up people. You can throw the people
and to the other people. That's that's a good time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, And it's it's like it almost like unlocked
an entire new idea for a lot of developers of
how character or how players should be interacting with the world,
which is uh maybe it's definitely the most influential gun.
I think uh probably should uh make its way onto
this list because of that.
Speaker 2: All right, let's see here gun.
Speaker 1: I mean, god, you said that, and it's almost like
I could put the portal gun on there right after that.
Speaker 2: Right, but why not? It's also very good, you know,
let's talk about it at least.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the portal gun is Yeah, it's very good. It's
it's also really like it's design obviously it's part of
that whole aperture science aesthetic. But yeah, yeah, they made
shooting those like those teleport you know holes, the portals
it made.
Speaker 2: They made it feel really good too. I just id
like to thing about it. It does like it's the
most if Steve Jobs designed a gun, it would look
like the Portal gun, right right, Yes, absolutely, yeah, it's
very aesthetically pleasing in an upsetting kind of a very
sterile kind of way. It's very interesting just looking at it.
The Lancer from Gears of War. They put a chainsaw
on that gun. That's cool.
Speaker 1: Yep, that that is still cool, right because I think
it's cool.
Speaker 2: It's very fun when you go and you chainsaw people.
The act of reloads are great. It just sounds good.
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, yes, they got all of the movement
of like or the sounds in the movement of that thing, right,
so it always feels super impactful. Mostly I do think
about using the chainsaw part of it, but it's fun
to shoot as well.
Speaker 3: Of course.
Speaker 1: I'm you know, back to doom, you know, BFG nine
thousands one. One thing, the super Shotgun is really the
most fun gun in that game, and it's still like
it's still the shotgun against all like that all other
shotguns are judged against. I think that's super fair because
it really does hold up in how much fun it
is to use.
Speaker 2: It's like the name super Shotgun says it all. Is
there what you need to know? It there exactly. The
plasma cutter from Dead Space, that thing is cool. I
love that it's like actually supposed to be a tool, right,
and then he gets repurposed as a weapon just so satisfying.
Every time you change it from the horizontal to make
it go vertical. It can go vertical. That's great. It's
so satisfying shooting off all of the limbs and stuff.
What that thing? I'm a sure plasma cutter mark yep.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I'm so glad they built the whole
game mostly around using that. That was because it's like,
this is so good. This is your game's gravity gun.
In a lot of ways, I'm glad that it was,
like they didn't try to take you away from it
for too long.
Speaker 2: I almost like sometimes I wish it was the only
gun in the game because you do get other ones
and it is you know, like, oh you got to,
you know, use the other one because you'll run out
of AMA for this thing. Sometimes I'm like, she was
almost just this. It's the most fun one to use.
Speaker 3: It's the most fun one to use. Yep, exactly for.
Speaker 4: The people that's a given suggestion. In child we're not
using like real guns from like Call of Duty and
that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I think the P ninety is pretty cool,
but it's not gonna hang on this list.
Speaker 4: I just wanted to do about video games kind of
no real guns for a real four reeal, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, you're so not American Christian.
Speaker 4: Out of all three, I'm pretty sure I'm the one
who likes guns.
Speaker 2: For you, but I hate gun Yeah, I'm cool.
Speaker 1: Okay, this one is the closest to a real gun though.
Chat So maybe you'll like this the Red nine. Oh
you think that's a good one. I'm like wanting to see, how,
like what your temperature is on this because I love
the Red nine handgun from Resident Evil four.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do like it. I like, if you had
told me to remember the event I wouldn't necessarily I
am swapping between guns so frequently in those games, I'm
not necessarily getting that kind of a deep attachment to
one of them, but it is. It is very good.
Speaker 1: I think Red nine is the one where I just
that's the one I always end up like sort of
using the most and upgrading as much as I can,
and that's the one I don't swap in once I
upgraded it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love the Red nine, all right? Yeah, anything else, Mike.
Speaker 2: Is this a gun or is this a power up?
The spreader from Contra.
Speaker 3: That's a gun. Yeah, you're getting different guns.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the spreader, the Spreader. I think that maybe's
a little cute. I'll tell you what I probably should
have said. I'm just gonna taken the return here, because
when you said Red nine, you're taking pistols. I mean
the Halo one pistol is still that pistol, right right? Yeah?
That or the Golden Gun. I guess the Golden Gun
from Golden and I perhaps, but the Halo one pistol.
I'm not even like a big Halo person, but that
was a good pistol. Once again, I can almost just
play the whole game with that thing.
Speaker 1: Yep, uh you know Needler uh from Halo? Is that
gonna hang here? I think pistols way better than that.
Speaker 2: Kneeler looks cool and in some games the kneeler's fun
to use. Yes, it's. Yeah, it's got a very bespoked design,
but like the pistol is just so you know, it
was overpowered. That's why it was fun.
Speaker 4: I like.
Speaker 1: I do like the fat Man from a Fallout, mostly
because mostly because a lot of times the nuke is
like in there separate from the rest of the geometry.
So if you like get in a situation where you
like aim it down, the nuke can fall out and
explode and blow you up, and that's that's a.
Speaker 2: Lot of fun. I do like that. Okay, I like
that fat Boy. We're doing pretty good here, Yeah, I
think we're pretty close. Is there anything from from Quake?
You would do? The rocket launcher?
Speaker 3: I would do I would do the rail gun right.
Speaker 2: From I went to the from a Real Tournament? Right? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Isn't there one in Why do I think the real
gun is associated with Unreal Tournament?
Speaker 2: Is that right? Now? They didn't they have? They have
like a nail gun. There's a nail gun quake, Yes, okay,
is that what I'm thinking of? Then? Yes, the one
that shoots the metal really fast. I like that. That's
the nail gun. That's the nail gun.
Speaker 3: Okay, yes, but yeah, but I don't know. I mean,
there's a lot of good guns.
Speaker 2: It's pretty tough. That's pretty tough. It's pretty tough.
Speaker 1: That the skull chunk gun from Doom the Dark Ages.
That looks really cool where it's just like you put
a skull in there. He keeps real dolls and it
just chips away at it and just shoots out those chips.
Speaker 2: Is like very hot, and yeah, that's a neat thing.
Can we consider squalls gun blade from foun Fantasy eight?
It's a gun and a sword, you tell me? Can
we consider it? Actually no, because it's actually not as
much of a gun as you think. You pull the trigger,
it's not the shoot projectiles. It actually just makes the
sword stronger. Can't get a gun is a stretch?
Speaker 4: The Yeah, lightning sword is more of a gun than
the sword gun than they have. Her actually turns into
a gun and she shooested it.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it would do much better and best swords
for sure. For sure, Oh yeah, it would hold its
own there without a doubt. I think we're pretty good here.
Speaker 1: But I'm like, I'm seeing chat still going off anything
else from you, Mike, I don't know.
Speaker 2: You know, there's like Sniper for from two, which just classic. Yeah,
the heavy machine gun, Peve just two. Plenty of other
good guns for sure, but I think we have the
four in here. Like some people are saying percenta three evoker.
I think that's cute. I don't know if it's really
gonna make it ratcha quake has a bunch of good guns,
but I don't know what the one would be right
from that, So so I don't know. You know, there's
a lot there's a lot of people have like iconic
pistols like Bonetta has hers, Dante has something in Ivory
right and Ivory. Yeah, those are neat, those are neat.
Keep saying the laptop gun.
Speaker 3: From Perfect Dark?
Speaker 2: Is that from Perfect Dark? I think yeah, or I
don't know, and then uh, you know, Mega Buster. I
don't it's a gun I guess for Mega Man, but
I don't really think of it as like a lot
of people also saying Barrett's arm, Yeah, what about the Megabuster?
Or whatever. That's what I was saying. Yeah, I don't know,
you're okay, yeah, gun, he's too sweet of a boy
to have a gun. That's just that's just.
Speaker 4: A control service weapon.
Speaker 2: There you go, I think you said from Control? Yeah good? Yeah,
do we want to consider the Golden Gun from Golden Eye,
So sure, I'll put those too. And then when we
start figuring it out, what's it's called service weapon?
Speaker 4: Correct?
Speaker 2: So the service weapon. I was thinking about control just
like shopping today. I need to finally go back and
play through that. It's good.
Speaker 4: I'm really excited about that lift for that, like they're
making a little good previews are coming up from that.
Speaker 2: Okay, here's what we have.
Speaker 1: The BFG nine thousand, Cerebral Borer, gravity Gun, Portal Gun, Lancer,
super Shotgun, Plasma Cutter, Red nine Spreader from Contra, Pistol
from Halo Combat, A vult.
Speaker 2: I Wanted to Stay Championship Edition, fat.
Speaker 1: Boy from Fallout three, Slash four Squalls gun Blade actually no,
Golden a gun from Goldeneyed Double O seven, and service
weapon from Control.
Speaker 2: Okay, is there anything that's a lock for you? God,
let's see here.
Speaker 1: I mean probably the gravity gun, and honestly, maybe the
super Shotgun.
Speaker 3: Maybe that's not a lock, but it's close.
Speaker 2: I think gravity gun is absolutely a lock. And I
don't know if we can have gravity gun and portal gun.
There's only four spots here, No we can't.
Speaker 3: I think gravity gun sort of kind of covers it anyhow.
Speaker 2: See, I mean, I get what you're saying about super
Shotgun over the BFG. It's definitely more fun. The BFG
is the BFG. It's more. Okay, you'r iconic that that
argument works on me. We can put it on. You're
you're right, you know what, You're right. It's probably BEFG.
Speaker 1: I think I think, uh, super Shotgun, Best Guns. That's
that's the list that that's different, and that's different. We're
doing the Mount Rushmore video game guns.
Speaker 2: Yep. Now, hey, okay, where do we go from. Halo
Pistol is probably also on the best Guns, but it
could be on the Mount Rushmore that Halo picks. So
I think that I think it's definitely at least should
be considered pretty strong.
Speaker 3: Out here, all right.
Speaker 1: I mean, I I'm almost like, I think the Lancer
might go up there.
Speaker 2: Answers pretty good. I like that it's very iconic. Yeah,
it's very iconic. I like Plasma Cutter a lot. It
just might not be quite as iconic as the Lancer. Yeah,
I mean it's definitely a Roosevelt. It's gonna make it.
Let's see.
Speaker 1: I think I like Spreader from Contra fat boy. I
think it's pretty fun. I don't know, let's see, I'm
gonna move Lancer over there as well, just to.
Speaker 2: Con over there. It's like, I don't think Red nine
is gonna quite hang it's no cerebral bar, probably not
gonna quite make it.
Speaker 1: No, I love the cerebral bar, but no, it's it's
definitely of its time.
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: There's a part of me that's like, maybe gravity, Gun, BFG, Halo,
Pistol and Lancer is just it that's pretty good. Yeah,
it probably is. Yeah, it probably is.
Speaker 1: If someone in Chad just said Spreader as an inspired
first fourth choice or whatever, and I'm like, yeah, I'd
like to see Spreader Contra on the list, but I
don't know what i'd knock off.
Speaker 2: You know, having a big moment right now right No, Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean there's definitely something foundational about a gun that
shoots a spread shot. And there was stuff that did
that did that probably before Contra. This is definitely where
like I I mean, where I think it begins.
Speaker 2: Right, Like I think we were talking about in Doom
Dark Ages is basically the Spreader brad GUNN Yeah, I
think this is probably it.
Speaker 1: So gravity gun BFG nine thousand pistol from Halo Combat
evolved in Lancer from Years of War.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm thinking I don't know. More people set about
super shotgun being cut out, maybe we do just put
it instead of BFG. I mean, I don't think it's wrong.
I could.
Speaker 3: I mean I could find either way personally.
Speaker 1: But okay, I think for people who like who play Doom,
the super shotgun is this thing of reverence, and then
I think for the wider audience, the thing they think
of is probably the BFG before even the super shotgun.
But I think, I don't know, a super shotgun maybe
could even be a George Washington on this list.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I think I think it
is BFG because people are like the people would just
keep saying I like the super shotgun more, and I'm like, yes,
I know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah it too, right? Is it more iconic? I
don't think it's more iconic.
Speaker 4: Actually, no, they put they put the BFG on that movie.
They didn't put the super shot gun a rocket.
Speaker 2: It right, people are some people are yelling about retch
of click, but they just keep like they're almost beening
my point. They just say, what about Roch and Clink.
I'm like, well, what gun? They don't tell me what gun.
There's a bunch of good guns in there.
Speaker 3: But which there's almost too many guns to kind of
sort of cancel.
Speaker 2: Each other out right, right, So, and look, I would
love to get Plasta cutter and I would love to
get Spreader in, but like, what would I get rid
of out of these? Exactly?
Speaker 1: It's really hard to get rid of any of these,
probably it, Mike, Yeah, I think that's right, all right,
moving that they're moving.
Speaker 2: I love it because even when I said, like, name
a gun for Rech and Klink, It's like there's so
many good guns that, like I've heard, I've seen like
three or four different ones show up in chat. Yeah,
the disco gun, the sheep gun, the Rhino, they're all
very good. Okay, I'm gonna capture this honey gun from warm.
So if it was best grenades, the Holy Hand grenade
would be in there for sure. Those best grenades. Someday
we'll do best grenades.
Speaker 1: Absolutely right, fantastic, let me go here, there we go,
all right, I am gonna post this the Blue Sky.
Speaker 2: We're gonna take one more break, will come back. Just
the case for audio listeners. That report of video game
guns is the gravity gun from Afflic two, the BFG
Night thousand from Doom, the pistol from Halo uh, and
then the lancer from gearso war. Yeah, somebody says this chat.
Microsoft does own three out of these four actually now,
so that's interesting. They love guns over there, absolutely all right.
Speaker 1: Like I said, we'll be back right after this, and
we'll talk about what we've been playing, will clean up
any super chets we've missed, and then we're gonna get
out of here.
Speaker 2: Thanks everybody. All right, we're back. Mike. What have you
been playing? It was Doomed the Dark Ages. I am
enjoying that quite a bit. I will say, like not
that the game is super story heavy. I'm a little
surprised how many cut scenes there are. It's like one
of the beginning and start of every level, and I'm like,
I don't really care. They keep showing me this guy
who's a king and he doesn't wear a shirt and
they show me him a lot. I don't know why
he matters well I should care, but yeah, yeah, and
I'm like, all right, that's fine, just let me go
shoot the do one or Doom twenty sixteen was still
the best with that stuff. Yes, by far.
Speaker 1: I mean it was very much like someone is trying
to tell Doom Guy what to do and he just
punches the TV or whatever in the conversation and it's like, yeah,
that's that's.
Speaker 2: What I want, right, So you know, who cares? You know,
there's some other stuff that's clicking up the pace you
don't have, like you had that ship and Doom Maternal
kind of between missions, and I don't think too many
people really cared for that, so I'm glad they don't
do that. It's just like a mission select screen, just
go do the next thing. So that's nice.
Speaker 1: Said I called that Doom Guy's office Doomslayer's office, and
people thought that was very an absurd way of describing.
Speaker 2: That, But it's funny. It's up to me. It's just like, yeah,
it's his office. Does he like put like collectibles there
or whatever? I don't know it is. I suppose kind
of an office. Yeah you're not, You're not wrong, excuse me.
But now I'm enjoying a lot, excited to get back
to it. But I haven't started clariub Scure yet again
since getting back from my vacation. I'm bad about that sometimes,
or whatever game I'm playing before I go on vacation
remains unfinished. I do not want that to happen with
clarip Scare. It's gonna make sure I get back to that.
This weekend. I mentioned beating Hydrobotics me Bean Machine, so
then I went and uh, I played Kirby's Avalanche last night,
because why the heck not. It's one of the mores
to pop. That's also a good game. It's nearly identical
the tyd Robotics mean being Machine, and yet I like
Doctor Robotics mean Bean Machine more. I could see that. Yeah,
but everybody gets a pu Yo pu yoh of course, yeah, yeah,
everybody get trbographics probably have one. It's probably just called
Pua PuO for all. Yeah. Probably it's probably a PC
Engine exclusive something like that. But how about you, Jeff,
what you've been playing?
Speaker 1: Yeah, road craft and stuff, like that it's not a
ton of time, and I've talked about that on BombCast
a little bit, so yeah, I've been kind of just
trying to make some time for other stuff. I'm near
the end of Despilote. It's kind of what I played
before bed, so I'm like playing it in like thirty
minute chunks. It's not a long game, but that's still
very affecting. I'm really really enjoying.
Speaker 2: That, still getting the hankering to play a lot of
different stuff.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I would like to play maybe some GTA
five because of all the GTA six stuff.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know what I'm gonna do with that.
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, it's like I really keep coming
back to this computer to play something, and then it
just keeps being funky in weird ways like tonight with
the obs crashes and games running way worse than it should,
and it's like hard to like calm down and just
like play a game when it feels like something's broken.
So I need to get that fixed so I can
just get back to playing games like normal, because it's
been a real pain in the ass. And the worst
part is it's like, yeah, worst part, it's like, you know,
we got this computers from in zxt and it's not
their fault, and until stuff is falling apart, but it's like,
I gotta go take this PC apart that I wasn't
ever supposed to think about, and here we are me
fixing it once again.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's just kind of a shame.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I played a little bit of Bionic Bay as well.
Speaker 1: That's the kind of platformer limbo sort of thing that
Dan was talking about. It feels really good. It's got
this really nice sort of weighty physics to it, and
you have your character can do this great thing where
it's like you're trying to do a long jump, so
you kind of dive roll into the long jump and
then you jump, and then you do another air dive
an air dash basically, and you can just go these
really long distances.
Speaker 3: It just has this really great feel to it.
Speaker 1: So I'm not someone who has played Munch Limbo or
any of those other games, but this one caught me
immediately because the physics of the of the platform and
just feels so cool. So yeah, I think this is
one that I'm gonna stick with on Steam Deck because
it's one of the few things that has come out
recently that runs on there and isn't doesn't have any issues,
and that's been nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I probably should check that one out. It looks good.
I did forget to mention I have been playing that
Capcom Fighting collection too, and I can talk about that
and I could say too, that is what the quick
look is going to be tomorrow. Everybody. Jan hung out
with me while I showed him that. Uh, I was
very excited for that, and it seems great. It seems fantastic.
It's really good. This is one of those things where
you know, sometimes I'm like, I don't know, maybe like
the real fighting ame freaks are going to find some
problems about that. I can't tell. But it just seems
like it's got all those games, and it's got a
ton of them. You have like Capcom Forces S and
K two, like really being an anchor for this very
hardcore two D finging experience thing at Powerstone two, as
this other anchor for this this really fun multiplayer play
with friends thing, and then all these neat curiosities and
things I wasn't super familiar with, like Project Justice and
not the sequel to Star Gladiator, that's Plasma Sword, right,
the the weird sequel to that weird game that they
made that was going to be a Star Wars game,
but then they lost the license that thing, so that
being on there. Even have Capcom Fighting Evolution, which is
a bad game, and I'm glad they put it on
there too. Yeah, I put everything preserve the bad games
as well.
Speaker 4: That's neat.
Speaker 2: I know there's that new that's like a different version
of Street Fighter Alpha three Street Alpha three Upper Christian.
I know you've been really enjoying that, right, Oh yeah,
I love that.
Speaker 4: I love that version. I never played the all perversion
Offala Tree. I have probably regular offal Tree I love
when I was a kid. So this version has a
bunch of you characters, a bunch of secret characters that
they made him choose selectable, like I think Evil real,
and like I think a Kuma is also there. Usually
it has all those characters and on top of the gameplay,
which is just us. I love Alpha three. I'm a mistake,
but it's I feel like the rule for fighting game
is the first fighting game you play out there, okay,
becomes like your personality. So Alpha three became a personality,
and this this collection has that. The other collection has
pregular OUTPHA three and I love it to play a lot.
But this version, with all the characters and all the
stuff that has going on, it just it's perfect for me.
So I love I love that version.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so it's great, Like, and I can see
myself playing a lot of Cat Rumbers is ess o
kid too. I love that game and it just still
looks and sounds so freaking good here. So having that
with net code and just easily playable, that's super exciting
to me. And you know, we're talking about Fatal Fury earlier,
and you know I was, I like that game, okay,
but I'm already like, no, I'd rather play Cat versus
I have that again. Going to be fair, I kind
of did that even with Street Fighter six. Once I
got Marvrus's gonna come to Bright I'm like, oh, yeah,
these games, these games rules so exactly. Yeah, really really
happy to have those. It's cool because Capcom has basically
just given us all its fighting games and collections recently.
It's a little weird that we have like the sequels
to Rival Schools and Start Gladier, but not Rival School
and Start Gladiator yet and there's some other things missing,
like the street Fighter ex games haven't been anywhere, right
or you know, like right, maybe a little strange because
they feel strange, but they have fans.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, just because like the development of them
was you know, not that capital was.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and some of those are in the City Year
Anniversary Street Fighter collection whatever they did a couple of
years ago.
Speaker 2: That it wasn't the X games are in there, no.
Speaker 4: You no X. Well there were some versions that weren't
like available on that thing. So I think the thing
that the X games have never been re released, well
version did they?
Speaker 1: Because I was I was playing that Street Fighter thirtieth
Anniversary collection the other day.
Speaker 2: There's e X in there and I remember seeing the X.
Speaker 5: But Capcom recar cool they've done crossover stuff recently, so
like that could happen.
Speaker 1: I will return And am I gonna like Street Fighter
Alpha three? Like uh, someone who like just really likes
Street Fighter three a lot?
Speaker 2: Is it is gonna be like if you like your
three a lot, you're gonna like cap co versus Key
two a lot.
Speaker 1: That's what you said, Yeah, that's what you were telling me.
I'm like, okay, yeah, I definitely want to check that
out then.
Speaker 2: Because it's basically just that, you know, you pick multiple
characters on your team, but it's not a tag fighter
in that officers capcom set. You're not like swapping people
in and doing supers with each other. It's more grounded,
you know. It has the whole isms thing where you
pick a kind of you kind of picked the mechanics
that you want in the start. Do you play it
so it works a bit more like street Fighter out uh,
or so that it works a bit more like you know,
King of Fighters or so that it kind of works
like Street Fighters three and you have the Perry system
and stuff like that.
Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, yeah grooves, that's its grooves in alphah. Yeah,
but it's more than that you picked like if you
have a role or if you if you wake up
in a way like it changes a lot how the
game plays.
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, it's just just tons of plus it
as Mochi from Final Fight too, and she is rad
so it's really cool roster in that game.
Speaker 1: From on Blue Sky I posted the results of our
Mount Rushmore and user super Shotgun dop Blue sky Dot
Social says we are Insane posted the gift of Everyone
from naked gun slapping their foreheads and the bugs bunny
no image. So the super Shotgun himself not happy with us, right.
Speaker 4: I wonder what he said agenda is, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Me too. It's impossible to steep through the veil here, Yeah,
it's impossible to anything else. Mike, No, I'm excited to
play some more. I think we're going to play some
power Stone two on UPF tomorrow. Actually a giant bump.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we might play some of the other games, but
a lot, a lot of power Stone is kind of
what I'm.
Speaker 2: Power too is just it's such a fun time. It's
such a good for player game. So many of these
games are Even though these are all arcade versions of
these games, a lot of these games had Dreamcast Sports,
so there's a very big Dreamcast vibe to this collection
and I just love that.
Speaker 1: Yep, for sure, I'm looking forward to spending some time
with this. Tomorrow, we'll do that on UPF everybody. Of course,
the quick Look will go live as well, so lots
of coverage of CAFCUM Fighting collection too.
Speaker 3: Shout out to mikey for leading the charge on that
to make.
Speaker 2: Sure it happened. And it was good because I just
wanted to get set up to do these quick looks, so,
uh yeah, you know it's even you know, even before
all this, Jeff, it was like something I always fantasy
books for myself. If I ever got involved, I would
be like, I would try to talk to them into
bringing quick looks back. Think that they're neat and I
think they'd be fun to do. So I'm ready. I mean,
I'm excited to do more quick looks. I think they're
they're a good time me.
Speaker 1: Too, And I'll the Roadcraft quick look ready here in
the next week or so.
Speaker 3: I'm enjoying that game quite a bit.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's see here, I think, Mike, we should probably
just catch up on the super chats and.
Speaker 2: Then wrap up the show there anymore?
Speaker 3: There was two more?
Speaker 2: Yeah, CJ said, I think so too. CJ says, star
Sis and launch an end game a ship today for
nineteen hundred dollars and made a million dollars and lessen
a minute. I'm in the wrong business. We all are,
we all are.
Speaker 1: So Wait, that's like they sold a thousand. Wait, how
many do you have to sell to get to a million.
Speaker 2: Let's let's say it's twenty thousand or I mean two
thousand instead, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: It's two thousand. Even if it's like one thousand, would
that be ten thousand? They'd have to sell a five
thousand okay, yeah, thank you or thank you Jason Bonelli
bath Heart.
Speaker 3: Yeah, five thousand These sold instantly.
Speaker 1: How engaged are these people that there's five thousand people
that can drop nineteen hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: It's just weird that, like, these people are still really
excited about Star Citizen. It must really be scratching an
itch for a very small but cash fluid group of people.
Speaker 4: I know, I know, I know, freaks of this nature,
and they just like walking around the place. And I'm like, okay,
but I don't think it's nineteen hundred bucks worth walking
around this shit. So I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 2: Diet all the EVO freaks go to Star Citizen? Are
they still just in EVO or in jail? Now?
Speaker 4: What do you evil?
Speaker 2: Even?
Speaker 4: I mean Evil nine Eve, not Evo Evo?
Speaker 2: No Evil?
Speaker 4: You're huge?
Speaker 5: Still?
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm like huge? Still? Well? What EVE is for? Yeah? People?
The ship out of ev Yes, I mean I reference
even the gamer wrap, that's how old it is. Sure
a lot of these games are old though. Hey yeah
Roadblocks two thousand.
Speaker 4: And six, Mario Ross is nineteen years old and then
killed me.
Speaker 2: Yeah there you go, I score, says hey all John here.
I love the super Scoper and Zapper from Splatoon. Yeah,
super Scope is in like the Menacer and like a
little bit of a different category there.
Speaker 3: And the super Scope is a gun in uh Splatoon.
Speaker 2: Well then they're cheating. They're cheating in a good way.
I'm pretty sure that when I think about Splatoon, though,
the most iconic weapon of me is just like the
giant paint roller that you just kind of run over, right.
Speaker 1: I like the end zapper as well, but it's uh,
you're right, there's some other guns that were just better
to use.
Speaker 2: Man s Platoon's fun. Shooting the guns in Splatoon feels
really good, kind of like you go for a Splatoon again, honestly. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe we challenge someone else to it and do
a couple of matches for Yeah.
Speaker 2: They made that roguelike mode for suppletoon three and I
just never played it, Like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, cool, okay, yep, Now we have a good excuse
to just play whatever we want.
Speaker 2: So yeah, nothing can stop us.
Speaker 1: Now I should know every time I say that I
should just write the ideas down and then one day
I can, just like one day a week, even do
a stream where it's like, people just vote from this
list of shit I said I wanted to do.
Speaker 3: Force me to play it. I would love that. Now
I might start doing that.
Speaker 1: All right, any other super chats, Mike, I think we
are caught up now, all right, fantastic in that case,
hit this one.
Speaker 4: Just reminder to people that tomorrow community event RIPO Community Night.
It's happening Friday, May sixteenth, So fire Ahead will be
giving one copy of the game to someone who wants
to join the night, So keep that in mind. If
you don't have the game you want to play, there's
one copy there the fire heres can it's giving away
so we will wait. Oh my god, I can't do English,
please Jeff.
Speaker 1: That's all right, Yeah, no, just get in the discord.
All the details will be there. It's Repo. It's a
really fun game. I wanted to play more of it myself,
so might try to, might try to join, will depend
on how dead I am from this week, all right,
Mike Minati. Tell people where they can find you on
the internet.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, giant Bomb dot com. It's the website of
our video games and I somehow own a part of
it now. Uh so there's that game's beat dot com.
I'm still managing editor over there as well. We're gonna
record a new nineties Disney I believe this Sunday trip report.
So if you haven't heard me talking too much about
the trip yet, all of those details from my like
eight days in Disney and going back to Epic Universe
will be in there. So yep, plenty going on a
guys think should be on Ax of the Blood God.
Speaker 1: Oh fantastic here so yeah, yeah, awesome that thanks to
everybody who supported us on Patreon dot com slash game
mess uh uh. You know, like I said, plans to
be figured out like how to expand here here pretty soon,
and I was saying by the end of summer. There
is some stuff that could happen before then. But you know,
like I said, think of like what mid Max does.
A chance to bring in some other people and do
some fun stuff on the evenings, things like that that
would be completely separate from Giant Bomb anyhow, So.
Speaker 2: Some cool creators that we could maybe work with in
some like one off ways.
Speaker 1: Going forward, I would like to do some more of that,
but it's gonna be a minute before I could figure
all that out. In the meantime, I appreciate the sport
as always. Thank you everybody. Yeah, and we'll be over
on Giant Bomb doing stuff and we'll be back on
Tuesday with last of then ten Dogs and yeah.
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna tune into nineties distey. I can't wait.
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, thanks for listening. Until next time, have
a good one, take care.
Speaker 2: Of yourself, and goodbye. Master Chief comes. They are going
to come for Zelda, other classes, my Dixie wrecked, mainstream penetration,
all the start.
Speaker 4: Break, break break, hashtag nted up. Brother, we are an
impact lets bro, I'm telling you that game is going
to break the world.
Speaker 2: I believe you.
Speaker 4: It's funny because some of the content creators are like
there were then if it gets no marketing money, so
it's kind of funny for them to talk about that
game when he got known. He has no marketing money
at all, and Sinkay put every every penny on on Garrol.
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be how it goes for sure. Yeah,
you just like I'm ready to bring it back in.
Speaker 4: No, I should to people choose to watch the gameplay
the release of that game, which looks insane. It is
from the people that it's not eighteen exactly, it's people
from it. I think this is a yeah, but it
looks fucking insane. I totally recommend people to check that out.
