Speaker 1 (00:06):
Let's do this.
Welcome everybody to anotherepisode of the Game of Traffic
show.
I'm your host, mike Sansom.
Children of my co-hosts, simplyamazing.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Feels good to be back , y'all.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Feels good to be back .
Mr Amazing, apologize to thepeople for delaying the Game of
Traffic show.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Talking about yourself?
Oh, I don't think so, mrAmazing.
Anybody Delayed?
Speaker 1 (00:22):
of the Game of Traffic show Is.
You know what I'm saying Withmyself?
Oh, I don't think so, mrAmazing.
Anybody delayed of the Game ofTraffic show is due to Mr
Amazing.
We won't go into details aboutit, but let's move on forward.
On today's Game of Traffic show, we're going to talk about the
Xbox.
You know what I'm saying.
See what's going on with Xbox.
We actually saved a man's life,believe it or not, mr Amazing?
(00:44):
And let's begin the show andtalk about what I said before
Xbox.
Mr Amazing, it's a surprisingreport that said Xbox only sold
not one, two million consoles,mr Amazing, unbelievable.
This comes by way of the latestquarter report earnings from
(01:06):
Take-Two that said over 94million consoles were sold last
year, big difference compared to2023, which is only 77 million.
Based on the studies, it showedthat Xbox only sold 2 million
consoles, mr Amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I think it was 2.7,.
I think it was 2.7?
.
2.7 million, whoopie, damn do.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
No, you're right, Still not impressive.
Not impressive compared to thePlayStation and Nintendo.
Mm-hmm, Mr Amazing, do the math.
Playstation sold 65 million .5.
Mr Amazing wanted to go to thepoints and you know what I'm
saying.
Come on, Mr Amazing.
What's going on here?
(01:50):
How do you feel about this?
It's a shame dude.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
But guess what?
Xbox don't give a F, they don'tcare.
They're not about the consolesystem, no more, they gave that
up already.
They don't care.
But before I get into that,because there's a lot to unpack
here, so, like you stated, asMike sold, mike says two, I say
2.7.
Whatever you want to pick, saycrap, we'll be new.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Exactly, I do agree with you on that.
It's still embarrassing.
Yeah, it's like yo.
But do you remember these cells?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I no, no, you got 64, you still failed no, no, I
agree, but these sales are Ithink they're strictly to the US
sales, so we have to clarifythat also yes, we do have to
clarify that yeah, so Xbox 20sold 2 million consoles in 2020
from the US, which is the lowestever for the company.
(02:38):
It's a 42% decline from theprior year.
Yeah, so that's a big.
That's a big loss, right?
So what decline from the prioryear?
Yeah, so that's a big loss,right?
So what contributes to thesesales, mike, to these low sales?
Is it fewer exclusives?
Is it changing consumerpreferences?
Like, who are we blaming here?
(03:00):
I mean me personally.
Like I just said not too longago, xbox don't care.
What do they care about,michael?
We always talk about it salesGame Pass.
Game Pass exactly.
So they don't care how you playit, they just want you to play
it or get a subscription to GamePass.
That's what they really careabout.
So I think their console isgoing to become obsolete
(03:22):
eventually, mr.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Mason, go ahead.
They are saying they are so Ithink their console is going to
become obsolete eventually.
Mr Amazing, Go ahead.
They are saying they are goingto come up with another console.
Why I agree.
Why I agree with you saying why?
But to satisfy the Xbox fanbase, so you know, and to show
that they're still in theconsole game and still allegedly
(03:44):
trying to get Sony competition.
But you're really not.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
You're not.
I mean at this point, just dowhat Sega did, follow the Sega
trend, make games.
I mean you'll be better thanwhat Sega did.
But because you still have aplatform where your game will
pass on the devices, I mean thisis not normal.
The Switch, on it's last leg,sold 5.9 million units last year
(04:10):
.
On it's last leg it's last legliterally sold more units than
you.
That's embarrassing.
So my thing is, since you guysdon't care about the console, do
what Michael said.
Don't need to drop variationsof your system.
We don't need a Xbox uh disc,need an Xbox Disless, an Xbox
1080.
Make one system, but you haveto make it price friendly,
(04:34):
because you do not care abouthardware.
So it has to be a pricefriendly console.
You're going to have to takethe loss here.
That's how I look at it.
You have to take the loss here.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
I told you this before Xbox and it was said in
many podcasts that Xbox one ofthe big mistakes is making Xbox
Series S.
I think that's a big mistake.
Agree, they could have justcame with a digital Xbox Series
X Like the PlayStation.
Yes, I don't know why.
(05:04):
The thing is that Xbox Series Sis what Mr Amazing, the Game
Pass machine.
That's what it was made for theGame Pass machine To get my
casual gamers or not really,we'll say, hardcore gamers to
actually, oh look, I'll probablyspend $400, but I'll get the
Series S to satisfy my cravingfor video gaming, especially on
(05:27):
the middle of video gaming.
On Microsoft allegedly, nowMicrosoft, let me say allegedly.
They have no excuses, no more,basically, but I digress they're
saying that the S was justsomething, a platform for the
Xbox Game Pass.
That's the bottom line.
I've been told that.
I've been told everybody that Ithought Xbox should have just
(05:50):
came out with Digital X and aDisk X.
That's it.
No developers complain about.
The S is holding us back.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
You're right to say that actually.
Yeah, you know it's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I don't know who thought about this.
I don't know Phil Spencer.
I don't know who thought aboutthis.
I don't know Phil Spencer.
I don't know Sandra Ball.
I don't know who did this.
I thought it was anirresponsible and a stupid move
by them.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, no, it was actually because it has held
them back.
Look, how Did they even getWukong?
Yet Black and Wukong, they gotit eventually.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Right, that ain't happened no, yeah, they, it was
no point and according to thedevelopers of Black Whoop, they
don't have experience with this.
I digress now, excuse me, tolack a better word doing that
transfer of the scaling it down.
Scaling it down, transferringit down to a lower level scale
(06:37):
for that system.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
So I don't know so just make it for their, make it
for their ex, and that's it andtoo bad for everybody else.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
everybody else you talking about the video game,
just make it for the X, forgetthe S, but the policy is the
game must play on the Series S.
Oh, so then you hold your ownstuff down Hold your own stuff
down.
Xbox, don't care y'all.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
That's almost like Sony saying, yo, the game must
play for the PS4 Pro.
No, stop it.
No, you're right.
You know what I'm saying.
Stop it with this nonsense.
And I think, do we know thetotal sales of Microsoft Xbox
Series X and S consoles puttogether?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
That's a good work.
We got to get the assistant toget the numbers in for us.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I think it's well.
According to what I read, Ithink it's either between 29
million and 35 million.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
That might be, but have one of the assistants check
for us.
We got to assist them, michael.
We got to check.
Michael, what the hell are youtalking about?
We got to check, check thenumbers, check the numbers.
Shut the hell up, shut the hellup, yo.
We gotta let her know.
We gotta let her know GaryCharles gets growing.
That was not funny, was that?
Was that a joke?
(07:52):
That was a joke y'all, it wasnot a joke.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
That was a joke, mr Bass.
It was not even funny.
It was not even funny.
Yo Jesus Christ.
No, I think it's so.
I think what I read between 29million to 35 million in that,
in that range alright, I mean itmight be.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
I'm trying to look it up as the show goes on why are
you looking it up?
Speaker 1 (08:16):
let's go to our next topic, mr Amazing.
Alright, let's go to the bottomline.
Xbox had a showcase a couple ofweeks ago.
Majority of those games I thinkevery one of them are going to
Mr Amazing, where PS5, ps5, baby.
So I mean another reason whythe hell should I buy an X or
(08:39):
Series S, mr Amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I know, but we keep saying it.
Microsoft don't care.
They say it's a profit for them.
So they're like, hey, we'regoing to drop it on our system
first, then we're going tomaximize our profit on the PC.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
That's how they look at it.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I'm not mad at that, though, either.
I mean it sucks, because if youbought a system for exclusivity
, it sucks, because if youbought a system for exclusivity
it sucks.
But at the end of the day,what's the famous word people
always say in every genre oflife?
Speaker 1 (09:10):
It's business, business, mr Amazing.
But let's hold on.
Let's see what former CIEWorldwide Studios Shuhei says
about this.
He said in the current podcast,mr Amazing, the kind of funny
podcast saying that.
I'll paraphrase it it's ablessing for Sony PlayStation 5
(09:31):
owners to get an opportunity toplay Microsoft former exclusive
games.
Mr Amazing.
One example of Forza game Forza5 post-com, I believe, in April
.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Mr Amazing, yes, it is, sir the upcoming games.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That was shown at the Xbox Direct.
I think we'll draw them, or allof them are coming to the
PlayStation 5, mr Amazing,nothing's being untouched.
There's no red line.
Xbox are now crossing that redline saying, damn it, everybody
gets an Xbox game.
We don't care.
Like you said before, we don'tgive up, let it burn, they don't
(10:05):
care.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Like you said before, we don't give up, let it burn.
Yeah, they don't, man, theydon't.
I mean, as long as you got agaming pass, that's all they
care about Subscriptions,subscriptions, subscriptions.
So subscriptions is the newconsole.
That's what I look at it.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
But the thing is, people should know this
Microsoft based on subscriptionservices.
Microsoft doesn't want you tobuy Word by itself.
They want you to buy thatmonthly subscription for Word.
Yeah for PowerPoint.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Excel, powerpoint, everything.
Yeah, you get an ocean bag.
Yeah, it always been about that, though.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
It always been about that.
At first it used to come withyour computer, I think Word used
to come with your computer.
It was free, it was with yourcomputer.
Now they said bleep you allthis as a service.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
$150, $200 bucks now Minimum.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
But you can buy outright as well.
Yeah, but I think as consumerswe're trained now for monthly,
monthly subscriptioninstallments.
And guess who wins?
They did, they're winning.
And once you say it's on yourcredit card, it's on your credit
for months.
Yeah, you're paying them, keeppaying them.
Yeah, you're paying them, keeppaying them, because it's blind,
you're not seeing it.
I mean it's made as an argumentreference to Microsoft,
(11:06):
microsoft, whatever word and Isay you might as well buy the
whole.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Thing you're right, but I remember at one time and I
was wrong.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Can you still do that can?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
you still buy it outright.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, okay well, I'm paying you a monthly description
for three or four years.
Why, why, why, why.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Why You're right.
It's not a topic, but you'reright.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
You're right.
I am right, Mr Mason, I'malways right.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Mr Mason, the rare time.
He is the rare time.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I'm always right, mr Mason.
Come on, stop the nonsense, mrMason.
But the funny part discussedthis Xbox as a third-party
studio for Sony.
Basically, they have moreexclusive.
They have more games coming tothem so far coming to
PlayStation.
Then the PlayStationfirst-party developers got
coming to their systems.
(11:54):
The only game we got.
What, mr Mason?
Death Stranded 2?
Yeah, death Stranded 2 is whatwe know.
And what else, mr Mason?
You know, I'm talking about theGhost of.
Oh, it's the Shimon.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Part 2 one yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Part 2.
Yotumi, yoti, yeah, yoti, andalso allegedly Fair Games, yes
yes, yes, that's a big alleged.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
We don't know that yet.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
To be honest with you , so you got what Forza 5 coming
to PlayStation.
We got Outer Worlds 2, theIndiana Jones.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Then we got CFDs also .
That came right.
That already came.
That already came already.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
You got Indiana Jones coming this spring.
You got Age of Empire 2.
Mm-hmm, I mean, it's amazing.
That's off the back right there, off the top of my head.
That's more games for the Xbox.
Quote, quote the third-partydeveloper coming to the
PlayStation 5, which isproducing less games as a
(12:50):
first-party developer to theirown system.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
So there's no exclusive Xbox number?
Is that what you're trying tosay?
What's amazing At the end ofthe podcast?
You're in this podcast.
What's amazing?
No, but my thing is we stillgot Halo.
We still got God of War those.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
We still got Halo, we still got God of War.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Those have never touched another platform yet why
do you keep saying God of War?
I mean pretty sure.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Mr Mays said, god of War.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
I mean sorry, when did God, when did Kratos?
I was gonna say Gears of War,my bad a legend.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Rumor is that if Gears of War has, I would say, a
remaster, oh, a remaster willgo.
Yeah, remaster trilogy, let'ssay Giz 1, 2, 3.
That might come to PlayStation5.
Damn.
Or Halo PS5.
That would be shot If Halocomes bang.
I think that's the bomb.
That's the bomb.
(13:36):
I think it's over.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
When I say it's over, it's like Xbox officially
became a third-party contentmaker.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
That's right, baby.
Third-party baby.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Ain't nothing wrong with it.
You make a lot of money thatway.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
But you got to understand.
As you said, it's business.
They bought these studios.
For how much money, mr Billions?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
You got to make it up you got to get your money back.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
They got to make their money.
The big heads Phil might notagree with them.
Sgt Barr might not agree that Iagree with, though but the big
people that are paying theirsalaries are saying yo, we got
to make some money.
I want to see returns now.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, you're right If not, slashing, slashing,
slashing.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And that slash could be your neck.
Yeah, which sucks.
So that's the way I look at it.
My thing to you is.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
We've had this time before, but my thing is it's
because, let's say, xbox decidesto go that route.
Are we going to see newconsoles, ps5?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
what do you mean?
They're already in that route,mr Nathan they are, but let's
say fully blown, it's like, it'slike the it's come on, it's
funny talk right now with Xboxno, but my thing is if that
happens it's full blown no moreconsoles.
We'll make a subscriptionrecently many interviews I say
many, it's more than oneinterview who say that yo,
there's no red line.
They're crossing that red line,they're making that over.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
No, I'm saying, but do you think?
In fact they ran over that redline and crossed over no I agree
with you, but my thing is wouldyou now see Xbox on a Switch 2?
Would you see theirsubscription as an option to be
used on the newer consoles tocome out, the PlayStation 6 and
(15:10):
the PlayStation 2?
Do you see that happening Ifthey decide to go that route
Because they're no longer yourdirect competitor as hard
consoles?
Speaker 1 (15:19):
anymore, Hardware.
Mr Mason.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
The default console right now is PlayStation 5.
If you see people make jokes,people, the mindset is yo, I'm
going to go home and playPlayStation 5.
Nobody says go play Xbox SeriesX.
I agree.
The mindset of PlayStation 5 isa default console for anybody
who plays video games.
Nintendo Switch is also anotherdefault console.
Xbox, who Xbox?
(15:45):
What?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
You're right because if you're talking to people you
know, younger generations, I'dbe like, hey, you're not going
to play that.
Nah, we don't play that no more.
It's rare you see on Xbox likethey used to be, which sucks and
Halo Master Chief has lost hissex appeal which is true and as
your homeboy what's his name?
Speaker 1 (16:03):
was saying that he liked that Halo series, what
happened to that series?
Cancel, bro, cancel, cause youknow what it was garbage.
And I say it was pure garbage.
You did call it out, I did callit out, I was like trying to
stay up.
It gave us a second season.
Of course, your boy, you know,gene, was like oh, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I didn't watch it, so I can't have an opinion.
I watched it, I didn't see it.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
So I can't have an opinion.
I was embarrassed man, I wasembarrassed garbage, and that
doesn't properly.
You could make a series of allmoving on, you know, but they
fumbled.
They fumbled the ball, bro,they fumbled the ball.
They fumbled the ball likePatrick and the Chiefs, fumbled
the ball in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
The bag was fumbled.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Yo, the bag was fumbled but, mr Amazing, as Xbox
had to showcase of the gamesthat are coming to every system.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
You mean the Sony State of Play and the Xbox
Direct Connect combined showcase?
Yeah, let's talk about it.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Yeah, yeah, Mr Amazing, At that showcase they
had the Doom Dark Ages.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That was my favorite one there, actually.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Which is coming out May 15th and it's a pretty cool.
It looks very well.
It looks very good.
I've been.
I played the recent CitizenRebooted.
I played all the Rebooted Dooms.
I'm very excited about it.
I'm very pumped up for thatgame.
Dark Ages maybe.
But Mr Amazing ask me thequestion which Citizen should I
(17:32):
get it on?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Well, you should get it for the Xbox, because your
PlayStation is going to be fullup and all of a sudden, it gives
you buy for it.
So you should get it for theXbox.
What do you think about it thatway?
Did you play for the Xbox thelast time?
No, no, what am I saying?
You played it on the last one,on the.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Xbox.
All the Doom games I had is onthe Xbox.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
But there's a funny story I wanted to tell everybody
.
I remember this is what I hateabout this digital age and my
game's not digital the onlineage.
So I was like I think somethinghappened.
I forgot there was a storm, ohand everything was down.
I remember that I'm trying toplay Doom can't connect.
I said, mother, what the what,the what's going on here?
(18:15):
Cause you have to connect tothe server.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
To online to access it.
I was like this is dumb Becauseyour games are safe to the
cloud, so you need to accessthem.
You need some kind of internet.
You need internet access.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Yo, so somehow Microsoft got to check the
license, whatever, and or thegame, or you play that game.
I find that.
That ticked me off.
But, mr Amazing, we're not hereor there or whatever.
You know what I'm saying.
But also a game I really likeis um Southwood Midnight yeah,
maybe I can't say that for awhile.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
The first time I saw it it's coming out.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
It's coming out, april 8th yeah, it's a more
polished.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
the game that you got a manga game played.
It reminds me of that becausethe woman lead character African
American, but this looks morepolished to me, though.
What was that one called?
Again, I apologize, I can'tremember the name, the one that
you guys didn't like that much,but you played it because you
were already invested in it.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah, I forgot the name of that stupid game god, I
can't remember it.
I'm so ticked off about that.
It was just like and the girl'san actor, well, actress yeah,
yeah, yeah, that, I know it'sridiculous.
I thought the Ryan was poor.
(19:27):
Well, she's just doing.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
She's just reading lines.
It's like no, but the Ryan waspoor.
The Ryan was poor, not true,ryan was poor.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
It was not a good game.
Now I came out of the top ofthe head what that game is yeah,
I know, but to me this gamereminds me of it.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
You know, the young lady she was kind of like, if
you saw the trailer, she hadlike an issue with her mom.
Then all of a sudden she's inthis whole different world
fighting and it just reminded meof that game.
But you know not to sit hereand compare.
The game is intriguing.
It looks different.
It's more of like a 2D slash,3d artwork kind of thing going
(20:05):
on.
You know, my thing is are yougoing to get this, mike?
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yeah, I'm going to get it.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Yeah, me too.
I think I'm going to jump onthis one too.
It looks very intriguing.
Actually, this is a day one forme, Not a day one, but it's
definitely something I'm goingto purchase Not a day one.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Mr.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Mason, not a day one, but I do want to talk about
what it is going to be a day onefor me that's coming out on the
Xbox, if I well, playstation 5version, because I'm going to
get a PlayStation 5 version.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Ninja.
That's out now.
That's digitally.
The two right, the one.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
That's out digitally now they dropped the two that
same day.
I believe.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Are you going to buy that one?
Yeah, why not?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
the J-Game was always a hard game for me.
I'm not going to lie to you,that's one.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
That game is always a hard game between that.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Shinobi.
Those were hard games for me.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
I don't know why I beat one of them.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Yeah, but it looked good, though I'm definitely
going to get a Ninja Gaiden 4,but I think I should get 2 as
well.
It's out right.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
So why not?
So are you going to buy it orare you going to wait?
I mean, I'll wait till you getit or the digital one.
The digital one You're going tobuy, that one?
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Yeah, yeah, I will actually.
No, anything to do with ninjasamurais.
I'm into that world, that wholeaspect.
That's my world.
I love stuff like that.
So you know, you think abouteverything that came out like
that.
I've mentioned it on the Gameof Traffic show.
I've always went out and boughtthose things.
So, yeah, it's up my alley,I'll get it but sure yeah yeah,
(21:32):
I'll get it.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I don't think you're going to get it, Mr Matthew.
No.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I am.
It's up by my alley, you're aliar.
But you know, to continue withthe Xbox Developed Direct.
Oh sure, I think we might havefinished, michael, that was the
show.
Huh, I think we might havecovered the whole show.
No, I'm just joking.
The Direct.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
What other games did you find interesting on there?
33?
Yeah, it's turn-based.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Turn-based.
Yeah, but that's not my kind ofgame.
That's not how I didn't talkabout it.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
It's an interesting game.
It's from a small studio.
I will.
Would I look into it For adiscount.
It's not my cup of tea.
The game don't look too bad.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
No, it doesn't.
No, it doesn't.
Just like I said, like I wastrying to face a great game, but
I never got to it.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I'm not a turn-based person.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, me too.
So, like I said, I'm not mad atit at all.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
You know what I'm saying, so you won't be seeing
me.
If it's on sale, I might, youknow, get the turn-based game.
Actually, I accidentally boughta turn-based game.
I was like freak it.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Oh wait, there's another game on there that I did
like I like Evolved.
Yeah, me too man you likeEvolved, I actually like that
one.
No, you was into it.
No, no, oh really, I thoughtthat was promising.
No, no.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
No.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Well it looks.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
I'm glad you're going to check it out.
Mr Macy, let's see.
Check it out with your wallet.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Oh, we'll see, it ain't happening.
It ain't happening it ain'thappening.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
I mean, I mean, Mr Macy, let me ask you a question
Are the console wars over?
Is the console war?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
over.
Xbox is not part of it, no more.
But I don't think it's overbecause Nintendo has a lot to
say.
So no, I don't think it's over.
It's no longer Sony versus Xbox.
Now.
It's literally sad to say Sonyversus Nintendo, two Japanese
world powers going at each other.
It might look like Sony's thesuperior one because the numbers
are just crazy from their end.
(23:30):
Just a fun fact I'm going tothrow out there Nintendo
surpassed PlayStation 2 in salesin the United States.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
In the United States.
So they surpassed that andthey're only 15 million away
from the worldwide sales of alltime.
So that goes to show Nintendo'sright there.
So you know putting that outthere.
So it's no longer Xbox versusSony, it's not going to be
Nintendo.
You know it's no longer Xboxversus Sony, it's not going to
be Nintendo.
You know Nintendo's always inthis Nintendo versus Sega.
You know, remember.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Yeah, but don't you think people just don't look at
Nintendo as a Sony competitor asfar as a video game genre at
this time?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And I know why because they don't have the same
AAA games as them.
They don't make that big AAAgames like that also.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
They make AAA games like that also.
They make AAA games, but theaudience is different.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, exactly, but let's see.
We got a Nintendo Direct comingup.
We'll find more out.
I can't wait to see that, tosee what are they going to find.
Listen and go that route,because that's something that me
and you talk about and otherpeople on different shows talk
about.
Okay, let's be straight uphonest.
(24:38):
At the start of the reveal,were you really pumped up for
the Switch 2?
Okay, no, not at all, becauseit looked like a Switch to me.
I'll be very honest it did.
It looked like a.
Switch to me.
I'm like okay, I saw it.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Let's just keep honest.
Let's just keep honest.
All the hype has died down.
Were you really pumped?
Speaker 2 (24:49):
up.
Okay, yes, no, what you juststated.
It looked like a switch to meand all I saw was a magnetic
connector from the joysticks tothe console, the mouse feature,
which could be a very cool tool.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
I don't know yet a feature nobody's going to use
yeah, I don't know yet.
So unless it allows you tomirror your, your PC to your
switch, mr Maisy, mr Maisy.
I don't know yet it's a featurenobody's gonna use.
We don't know that yet.
It's gonna be used for one ortwo games and never be used
again.
Well, that's a possibility Imight get out of here.
Let's just keep 100 but?
Speaker 2 (25:25):
but I can also make the argument if it ain't broke,
don't fix it.
So Nintendo might have beenlike yo, this is, this is, this
is what got us our money.
We're just going to tweak it,add little things here and there
, make it more, overallexperience better, but we're
(25:45):
going to keep the same hardwareand it's not a bad idea.
So I can see that We'll findout.
I'm holding judgment untilafter the Nintendo showcase.
About the Sony, about the SonyAh.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Nintendo.
Sorry, my thing is like if weask Mom got a game she bought,
she says no, she's not buying it.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
She did say it.
She said that to me yesterdayactually.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
It was all a surprise , yeah, so I'm not too hyped up
about it, but you guys haven'tseen anything yet you can't say
that.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
yet they might come in and be like guess what, Guess
what we got.
We got God of War coming to us.
I'm just playing.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
What's your assessment of God of War?
Have you mentioned it severaltimes?
I don't know actually.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
What happened?
I think I had to go for the DLCthat I never played.
Maybe that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I feel guilty about that.
I don't understand.
It might just be that You'reridiculous man, all right, mr
Amazing, I don't know what elseto say to you about that.
I think you need help.
So, mr Amazing, yes, sir,anything else you want to say
about the Council?
Wars, wars, sorry.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Well, between the two councils, the council's nothing
really, but I digress and wecan continue.

I'm just trying to find my way.

(29:12):
Let me do the talking.
I said him what I thought.
I work for a government agency.
I don't torture people.
You didn't.
I went to Ray and meet withsomeone who killed all these
people.
I actually didn't kill allthose people.
(29:33):
How do you know that?
No, do you often confess tocapital murder?
I actually didn't say anything.

Are you ready?
Yeah, I'm just trying to findmy way.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Mr Amazing accounting tool man starring Ben Affleck,
and what's?
The man who plays the Punisher?
I keep hearing the man's name.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I always know him from Walking Dead Punisher, but
I never knew his name in reallife man.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
It's sad, I should know the man's name.
I always know him from WalkingDead.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Punisher.
I never knew his name in reallife man.
It's sad I should know thatman's name.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
We need to respect that man's name.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Yeah, put some respect on that man's name.
Google the guy that plays inPunisher.
What's his real name?
I'll Google it for you.
Yeah, google it, google, mrAmazing All right, you keep
talking and I'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
But I mean, do we red light or green light this
trailer?
Mr Mason, I'm green lighting it.
I saw the first one.
I thought the first one wasgood.
It took a long time to get asequel.
I forgot the first one came outlike 8 years ago, I believe.
So so I green light it.
It looks very action packed.
The female FBI agent is veryinterested.
It does remind me of JodieForster's character in Sign of
(31:20):
the Lamps.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Where she goes, do you like?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
puzzles.
I'm like oh, you just tookright out of Jodie Forster's
repertoire John Burtow.
Okay, John Burtow, we putrespect to your name, John.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
No, he deserves it, man.
He's a great actor.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
You know what I'm saying, so it's amazing.
My question to you Igreenlighted the trailer.
Do you greenlight it yellowlight or red light?
Speaker 2 (31:42):
the trailer.
I greenlight it also.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah, okay, All right , Coming out April 18th.
Mr Amazing Right around thecorner, yeah right, baby right
Amazing Sam Wilson.
Yo, it's in bro, it's in youknow what I'm saying Yo, he's
(32:07):
there in full effect.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
I feel like he lost weight too.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
I don't know if he lost weight.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
He looks smaller to me.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
But, Mr Amazing, the movie has made overall.
Let me check real quick.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
Because you mentioned off-camera something to me and
then when I saw the numbers, Iwas like what were you talking
about?
Because if you're looking atthe numbers, it sold pretty well
to me, because I mean openingweekend.
It grossed $192 million.
It's opening weekend $100million in the US, $92.4 million
internationally.
It's the biggest opening of2025 so far.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Yes, big old, I was pointing out.
I put the question out there toyou.
What do you think of it?
Speaker 2 (32:45):
I haven't seen the movie yet, but the sales
suggested Well, you can't go bysales.
First weekend open weekend Well, the open weekend sales are
well.
But I did hear a lot ofcritique about him and then word
the fact that tomorrow we'reabout to come out and say we're
not replacing him, he's our guy,we're going to stick with him.
So that's usually telling whensomeone has to come out and then
Wait, wait, that place what.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
I didn't hear, anything.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
People were upset about it so I haven't seen it,
so I can't hold judgment to it.
Where His character?
Because everybody is so used toSteve Rogers.
Yes, miss Mason, go ahead talkto me.
You know why, you know why somepeople are saying I'm trying
not to go that route.
Yeah, you know why some peopleare saying that I'm trying not
to go that route.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
There's some people who feel that way.
But is that something that'sthey're going by?
What?
The comic book?
This is what goes on in thecomic book.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Yes, you keep it true to the story.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
It keeps true to the story.
Stop the BS.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Stop the BS.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
I haven't seen it so I can't say he did a bad job.
He did a good job.
But the argument, is saying, isthat he was more fitted as a
side role but not as the mainCaptain America.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
So do you want?
Speaker 2 (33:55):
him replaced.
They want him.
He can't hold the show, hecan't hold the title, like you
know.
He can't be the man holding awhole movie by himself like his.
His persona doesn't fit it.
They're saying that's what Ilike.
I said this is all speculationsand talks.
I haven't seen it.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I mean, my thing is that he's new to he's new being
Captain America, so he's poking.
If he came out, he's totallyhe's like hooking up and he's
actually just taking over, justlike that.
Sometimes that's not realisticin real life.
I agree.
You know what I'm saying.
So somebody, if you take themantle, how long it took
somebody to find a mantle forMichael Jordan?
(34:32):
The closest is LeBron, andLeBron we still don't look at
him, colby too.
You know what I'm saying, butit's not happening, I think.
Do I think he's Captain America?
No, no, I don't think he's.
You know what I'm saying, butlet's keep it real.
The first adventure movie wasnot a good movie.
It was not a good movie.
(34:54):
Let's keep it 100.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Did you see Captain America the new one?
No, I didn't see it yet.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
I didn't see it yet.
I didn't get to see it yet.
I mean the movie Brave NewWorld.
What it's on, let's see.
According to Screen Rant,that's like a Screen Rant so far
.
According to their big article,captain America Brave New World
box office officially surpassedMarvel's biggest bomb.
Is it a bomb?
(35:20):
Yes, box office explicitlysurpassed Marvel's biggest bomb.
It's a bomb, yes, biggest.
Yeah, it says well, mcu biggestbomb entry gross in just one
week.
That didn't sound like apositive spin on it.
So I'm looking like damn, notlooking good for you, bro, but
the gross if you look at thegross.
The first week after therelease Captain America Brave
(35:42):
New World, worldwide earns havereached over 208 million dollars
, mr Dimension not bad at all,not shabby surpassing the
Marvels, okay, which made 206million dollars total.
What the hell was the Marvels?
I forgot.
I don't remember.
I sit in my head, but milliondollars total.
What the hell was the Marvel Iforgot?
I don't remember.
I sit in my head, but I justdon't remember what was the
(36:03):
Marvels.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
The Marvels, it was the.
Oh, what was it?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
All the three females .
Yeah, garbage, straight,garbage Yo.
I didn't even want the movietheater to watch it.
It came on, I believe it camenot Netflix, it came on Disney
Listen it got 62% Rotten Tomato.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
man the marvels.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
I watched it, I was like I didn't finish it.
I didn't finish it, I didn'tfinish it.
Halfway through I said, no, Ican't do this.
I can't do this to show how badit was.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Budget was $374 million, the final gross was
$307, but they made it under thebudget, so that goes to show
you lost money.
You lost a lot of cheddar.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
And the real problem a lot of people had, that they
lose their Captain America BraveNew World movie to try to tie
up some of the Marvel's looseends oh, that sucks.
That's the problem.
I'm not going to go in theloose ends and tie up.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Nah, especially if you got a new character in there
too, you want to focus on himmore.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
I thought that was not a good idea.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
I agree with you.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
That's why all the reshoots happened, Gotcha.
So, Mr Amazing.
So what do you think the totalgross for that movie?
Speaker 2 (37:12):
I don't think it's going to hit half a billion
Billion.
Excuse me, I think it's goingto fall short under that.
I'm going to put it at 400 andchange 420 something mil what?
Speaker 1 (37:24):
you got what you think.
Yep, I agree Around there, Iagree.
I agree Probably four something, four something.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
I have about 420.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
400 million?
Yeah, I mean watched when itcalled Disney Plus.
I don't know, I'm curious.
I might still go by myself justwatch it become curious and you
know see what happens.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
But uh, you know, I think it'd be kind of cool if we
do an episode where we ask thefans to to poll the community,
yeah the, the, the to pull thecommunity.
Yeah the for what the gamertraffic community to pull a
movie that you and I should gowatch and ask for our feedback
on it.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
I would like to do that alright, mr Maison I think
that would be a cool idea yeah,okay, I think I'd be interested
in that.
Mr Maison, who challengedpeople online to play Street
Fighter.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Then annoyed their requests hey because he's a punk
.
I might be doing that withFatal Fury.
We'll see the beta's out, soI'll let you guys know.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
The beta's out, we can play it.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Yeah, the beta's out.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Yeah, I have to double check that, but I'm 90%
sure I don't know if the beta'sout, but is it out for the whole
world or just out for?
Speaker 2 (38:33):
I don't think it's exclusive numbers, people in the
YouTuber I think it's foreveryone.
Ign that might be wrong, Imight be giving you guys wrong
facts, but I think it is, thoughYo get Game of Thrones.
They're freaking beta so we canplay it.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
You know what I'm saying, so come talk with me, mr
Amazing Madden, and all thesegames.
Last time I checked, we two ortwo in the 19 and 13 19.
Speaker 2 (38:57):

What did I do?
Why would you give a shout out?
Speaker 1 (39:31):
I got hyped for nothing, yo I still have my damn
wings on my bed.
I have my damn wings this week,Mr Amazing.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I was hoping the topic would have been about me.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Tomorrow can I have my wings tomorrow, Can I?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
get them.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Can I have my wings?
We're working on it.
We're working for months on it.
Go, mr Maze shoot.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Okay, so we're going to call this topic Xbox Series S
A lot of us, to be honest withyou, just call it Xbox Series
saved my life.
So, to be honest with you, thisXbox series saved my life.
So Reddit user Jonesy2282 wasthis closest story and first of
all, I'm happy he's alive.
Where he had just bought anXbox on his way home, he was hit
(40:18):
.
I think it was a.
I'm not sure if it was a truckor what kind of car it was.
It was a truck he was.
He was hit.
I think it was.
I'm not sure if it was a truckor what kind of car it was.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
It was a truck.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
He was hit by a truck dragged about 12 feet.
He suffered a broken bone and alot of fractures, and he hit
himself pretty hard too.
Let me make that clear too.
And the reason he did not dieis because in his backpack he
(40:45):
had an Xbox which was kind of abarrier for him while he was
being dragged, which preventedhim from being more than he's a
lot, to tell the story.
It prevented him from furtherinjuries.
Yeah, from further injuries.
But what's more unique aboutthis story is Mr Jones.
He went home and guess what?
(41:06):
Y'all it still worked the Xboxand the horrible beat up.
There's a picture of that.
I wish this was YouTube so wecould put up the picture for you
guys.
There's a picture out there.
He put it up Xbox scratched up,beat up, but it still worked.
That's kind of cool and Iactually think that Xbox we
should go follow story to see ifthey reached out to him or
(41:28):
anything like that.
Microsoft reached out to himBecause that might be worth
money.
Now People are like, oh, that'sthe Xbox in my life.
It might actually be worthsomething and it still works.
So thanks, shout out to Xboxfor saving Mr Jonesy 2022's life
and he's going strong.
Have you ever heard anythingsimilar to that, michael?
Speaker 1 (41:51):
No.
I did, but not really JesusChrist.
Not like that Is it you, not me, though?
Speaker 2 (41:58):
What Tell me, not us directly, but we spoke about
this on.
Not me, though what Tell me,not us directly?
But we spoke about this on ourshow.
Actually, we heard storieswhere systems keep kids out of
gangs and stuff like that.
I mean, in comparison, we'veheard stuff like that, nothing
to where it physically savedyour life.
That's about it.
(42:18):
Shut the hell up.
Speaker 1 (42:21):
What the hell are you talking about, hey?
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Dude, let me ask you a question in regards to this
topic.
Speaker 1 (42:29):
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
So you have an Xbox that's all scuffed up but works
flawlessly.
Would you sell it to make aprofit Because it's getting
notoriety, or would you justkeep it because, hey, this means
profit, because it's gettingnotoriety?
Or would you just keep itbecause, hey, this means
something, because it literallysaved your life?
What would you do with the Xboxand someone's offering you a
million dollars?
Speaker 1 (42:48):
I got to see the beat up condition.
I forgot the picture of thatXbox we're talking about.
I could find it for you.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
But my thing is, what would you do if it was yours?
Sell it, you sell it.
Yeah, michael's about the moneyman, he doesn't care about the
thing that saved his life, it'salways about the money.
Hey, what we just said earlierin the show, it's just business
(43:15):
y'all don't take it personal,it's just business, baby it's
business.
I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
I'm probably still mine too beat up crap, forget
the it still works though, buddyman get out of here, get out of
here, yo get out of here.
Speaker 2 (43:30):
All right, man, that's pretty much it for me on
my end.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
We know Mr Mason.
We know Mr Mason.
But Mr Mason, should we care?
Top of the week.
Oh nice, what we got.
Mr Mason, you go into sportsfor later and those are gaming
show.
Well, we do touch on sports.
Yes, we do.
The New York Yankees havefinally dropped their positive
facial hair.
Speaker 2 (43:49):
I saw that that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (43:50):
Should we care a lot, a little or not at all?
And will this affect MLB, theShow 25?
Can my character now play theYankees with a beard?
Wait, they couldn't before.
Speaker 2 (44:06):
I don't know.
That's interesting.
I don't know the answer to that.
I mean no Shave November.
They can participate in thatnow Wait, no, is it no Shave
November or no Nut November?
There is a no Shave November.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
I know you're not saying November, we'll skip what
you just said earlier, although.
Speaker 2 (44:24):
I heard that part, but it is a thing, though.
Actually it is a thing.
I mean I saw that.
Do I care?
It's intriguing.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
You care a lot, a little, not at all.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I think it's intriguing because it's going to
be weird seeing Yankee playerswith beards.
Imagine Derek, jeter, bernie,bernie, I'm going to say Sanders
.
Bernie Williams, those guysthose guys that you know.
It's whatever.
I think it's cool, I think it'sabout.
I think it was about time.
It was about time you let it go.
You got rid of the policy.
It's a couple of decades oldpolicy.
It was outdated.
(44:57):
To me, personally, it'swhatever.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
I mean my thing, I'm so used to it.
I don't even care, I'm so usedto it like, alright, you know
what I'm saying.
I really don't care.
But, mr Amazing, my second dowe care topic is the PlayStation
themes have been removed.
Mr Amazing, do you care a lot,a little or not?
Speaker 2 (45:17):
at all the PlayStation.
What?
Speaker 1 (45:18):
the themes for PlayStation 1, 2, 3 and 4 have
been removed.
Speaker 2 (45:22):
Are removed yeah oh, I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
Yeah, I was.
I had the place To the onetheme.
Speaker 2 (45:27):
Oh, they've been removed From the 30th
anniversary.
Speaker 1 (45:30):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (45:31):
Damn.
That was quick.
Why didn't they let it Run forthe whole year?
Speaker 1 (45:34):
Yes, remember, they said it was only temporary.
Mr, amazing, damn.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
This is not the weekend.
This is gonna be donkey For me.
This is gonna be Wankster at me.
Pardon me, this is W materialright now.
They should have kept it forthe whole year.
It's a 30-year anniversary forthe whole 2020, what is it?
2025, right?
Yes, yeah, Come on man, Got tobe out here.
Come on man.
People are like I'm ChrisCarter.
Speaker 1 (45:58):
Yes, but I mean I care a lot, because I really
like it.
Speaker 2 (46:01):
Me too.
I liked it also.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
I had too.
Yeah, oh shoot, I really care alot.
I really wanted to keep it.
Speaker 2 (46:11):
Can we buy it?
Speaker 1 (46:12):
No, sucks, yeah.
So, mr Mason?
No, it's not happening.
Mr Mason, that's the end of theshow.
Mr Mason, that's it.
Unless you got a wankster organgster for the week.
Speaker 2 (46:25):
Do we have a wankster or gangster for the week?
Speaker 1 (46:29):
I don't think I do, but Mr Mason, I do what's yours,
sony PlayStation.
Speaker 2 (46:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:35):
Get the gangster and the gangster of the week, mr
Mason, simultaneously.
Mr Mason for the PlayStationOutage, which they didn't
apologize for.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
They never said what it was.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
It makes me even more pissed off, so that's the
gangster move, Knowing that Idon't have to tell you because
you're still going to play whatyou're going to play Xbox.
Laugh at you, Mr Amazing.
And that's the gangster move.
That's the gangster move.
Speaker 2 (47:02):
They're like, we're going to tell you why.
Just know, you're just back off.
That's what you need to know.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Shut your mouth and know your role and play the damn
game.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
That's actually a pretty good one actually, but I
did wish they'd tell us why,because I think it might have
been something that they wantpeople to panic.
That's what I think it was.
Speaker 1 (47:15):
I think so, and it's the way See credit cards got
compromised and that's alsogetting the way we're doing
maintenance.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
And Silicon Valley after the, after 7 o'clock in
the evening Made us for 24 hourswhat it was a Friday it was a
Friday, a Friday wheneverybody's home playing what
the no man?
Speaker 1 (47:34):
So Sony, you get the Winkster and the Winkster of the
week.

(48:21):
Thank you.
Let's do this.
Welcome everybody to anotherepisode of the Game of Traffic
show.
I'm your host, mike Sansom.
Children of my co-hosts, simplyamazing.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Feels good to be back , y'all.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Feels good to be back .
Mr Amazing, apologize to thepeople for delaying the Game of
Traffic show.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Talking about yourself?
Oh, I don't think so, mrAmazing.
Anybody Delayed?
Speaker 1 (00:22):
of the Game of Traffic show Is.
You know what I'm saying Withmyself?
Oh, I don't think so, mrAmazing.
Anybody delayed of the Game ofTraffic show is due to Mr
Amazing.
We won't go into details aboutit, but let's move on forward.
On today's Game of Traffic show, we're going to talk about the
Xbox.
You know what I'm saying.
See what's going on with Xbox.
We actually saved a man's life,believe it or not, mr Amazing?
(00:44):
And let's begin the show andtalk about what I said before
Xbox.
Mr Amazing, it's a surprisingreport that said Xbox only sold
not one, two million consoles,mr Amazing, unbelievable.
This comes by way of the latestquarter report earnings from
(01:06):
Take-Two that said over 94million consoles were sold last
year, big difference compared to2023, which is only 77 million.
Based on the studies, it showedthat Xbox only sold 2 million
consoles, mr Amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I think it was 2.7,.
I think it was 2.7?
.
2.7 million, whoopie, damn do.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
No, you're right, Still not impressive.
Not impressive compared to thePlayStation and Nintendo.
Mm-hmm, Mr Amazing, do the math.
Playstation sold 65 million .5.
Mr Amazing wanted to go to thepoints and you know what I'm
saying.
Come on, Mr Amazing.
What's going on here?
(01:50):
How do you feel about this?
It's a shame dude.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
But guess what?
Xbox don't give a F, they don'tcare.
They're not about the consolesystem, no more, they gave that
up already.
They don't care.
But before I get into that,because there's a lot to unpack
here, so, like you stated, asMike sold, mike says two, I say
2.7.
Whatever you want to pick, saycrap, we'll be new.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Exactly, I do agree with you on that.
It's still embarrassing.
Yeah, it's like yo.
But do you remember these cells?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I no, no, you got 64, you still failed no, no, I
agree, but these sales are Ithink they're strictly to the US
sales, so we have to clarifythat also yes, we do have to
clarify that yeah, so Xbox 20sold 2 million consoles in 2020
from the US, which is the lowestever for the company.
(02:38):
It's a 42% decline from theprior year.
Yeah, so that's a big.
That's a big loss, right?
So what decline from the prioryear?
Yeah, so that's a big loss,right?
So what contributes to thesesales, mike, to these low sales?
Is it fewer exclusives?
Is it changing consumerpreferences?
Like, who are we blaming here?
(03:00):
I mean me personally.
Like I just said not too longago, xbox don't care.
What do they care about,michael?
We always talk about it salesGame Pass.
Game Pass exactly.
So they don't care how you playit, they just want you to play
it or get a subscription to GamePass.
That's what they really careabout.
So I think their console isgoing to become obsolete
(03:22):
eventually, mr.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Mason, go ahead.
They are saying they are so Ithink their console is going to
become obsolete eventually.
Mr Amazing, Go ahead.
They are saying they are goingto come up with another console.
Why I agree.
Why I agree with you saying why?
But to satisfy the Xbox fanbase, so you know, and to show
that they're still in theconsole game and still allegedly
(03:44):
trying to get Sony competition.
But you're really not.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
You're not.
I mean at this point, just dowhat Sega did, follow the Sega
trend, make games.
I mean you'll be better thanwhat Sega did.
But because you still have aplatform where your game will
pass on the devices, I mean thisis not normal.
The Switch, on it's last leg,sold 5.9 million units last year
(04:10):
.
On it's last leg it's last legliterally sold more units than
you.
That's embarrassing.
So my thing is, since you guysdon't care about the console, do
what Michael said.
Don't need to drop variationsof your system.
We don't need a Xbox uh disc,need an Xbox Disless, an Xbox
1080.
Make one system, but you haveto make it price friendly,
(04:34):
because you do not care abouthardware.
So it has to be a pricefriendly console.
You're going to have to takethe loss here.
That's how I look at it.
You have to take the loss here.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
I told you this before Xbox and it was said in
many podcasts that Xbox one ofthe big mistakes is making Xbox
Series S.
I think that's a big mistake.
Agree, they could have justcame with a digital Xbox Series
X Like the PlayStation.
Yes, I don't know why.
(05:04):
The thing is that Xbox Series Sis what Mr Amazing, the Game
Pass machine.
That's what it was made for theGame Pass machine To get my
casual gamers or not really,we'll say, hardcore gamers to
actually, oh look, I'll probablyspend $400, but I'll get the
Series S to satisfy my cravingfor video gaming, especially on
(05:27):
the middle of video gaming.
On Microsoft allegedly, nowMicrosoft, let me say allegedly.
They have no excuses, no more,basically, but I digress they're
saying that the S was justsomething, a platform for the
Xbox Game Pass.
That's the bottom line.
I've been told that.
I've been told everybody that Ithought Xbox should have just
(05:50):
came out with Digital X and aDisk X.
That's it.
No developers complain about.
The S is holding us back.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
You're right to say that actually.
Yeah, you know it's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I don't know who thought about this.
I don't know Phil Spencer.
I don't know who thought aboutthis.
I don't know Phil Spencer.
I don't know Sandra Ball.
I don't know who did this.
I thought it was anirresponsible and a stupid move
by them.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, no, it was actually because it has held
them back.
Look, how Did they even getWukong?
Yet Black and Wukong, they gotit eventually.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Right, that ain't happened no, yeah, they, it was
no point and according to thedevelopers of Black Whoop, they
don't have experience with this.
I digress now, excuse me, tolack a better word doing that
transfer of the scaling it down.
Scaling it down, transferringit down to a lower level scale
(06:37):
for that system.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
So I don't know so just make it for their, make it
for their ex, and that's it andtoo bad for everybody else.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
everybody else you talking about the video game,
just make it for the X, forgetthe S, but the policy is the
game must play on the Series S.
Oh, so then you hold your ownstuff down Hold your own stuff
down.
Xbox, don't care y'all.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
That's almost like Sony saying, yo, the game must
play for the PS4 Pro.
No, stop it.
No, you're right.
You know what I'm saying.
Stop it with this nonsense.
And I think, do we know thetotal sales of Microsoft Xbox
Series X and S consoles puttogether?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
That's a good work.
We got to get the assistant toget the numbers in for us.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I think it's well.
According to what I read, Ithink it's either between 29
million and 35 million.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
That might be, but have one of the assistants check
for us.
We got to assist them, michael.
We got to check.
Michael, what the hell are youtalking about?
We got to check, check thenumbers, check the numbers.
Shut the hell up, shut the hellup, yo.
We gotta let her know.
We gotta let her know GaryCharles gets growing.
That was not funny, was that?
Was that a joke?
(07:52):
That was a joke y'all, it wasnot a joke.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
That was a joke, mr Bass.
It was not even funny.
It was not even funny.
Yo Jesus Christ.
No, I think it's so.
I think what I read between 29million to 35 million in that,
in that range alright, I mean itmight be.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
I'm trying to look it up as the show goes on why are
you looking it up?
Speaker 1 (08:16):
let's go to our next topic, mr Amazing.
Alright, let's go to the bottomline.
Xbox had a showcase a couple ofweeks ago.
Majority of those games I thinkevery one of them are going to
Mr Amazing, where PS5, ps5, baby.
So I mean another reason whythe hell should I buy an X or
(08:39):
Series S, mr Amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I know, but we keep saying it.
Microsoft don't care.
They say it's a profit for them.
So they're like, hey, we'regoing to drop it on our system
first, then we're going tomaximize our profit on the PC.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
That's how they look at it.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I'm not mad at that, though, either.
I mean it sucks, because if youbought a system for exclusivity
, it sucks, because if youbought a system for exclusivity
it sucks.
But at the end of the day,what's the famous word people
always say in every genre oflife?
Speaker 1 (09:10):
It's business, business, mr Amazing.
But let's hold on.
Let's see what former CIEWorldwide Studios Shuhei says
about this.
He said in the current podcast,mr Amazing, the kind of funny
podcast saying that.
I'll paraphrase it it's ablessing for Sony PlayStation 5
(09:31):
owners to get an opportunity toplay Microsoft former exclusive
games.
Mr Amazing.
One example of Forza game Forza5 post-com, I believe, in April
.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Mr Amazing, yes, it is, sir the upcoming games.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That was shown at the Xbox Direct.
I think we'll draw them, or allof them are coming to the
PlayStation 5, mr Amazing,nothing's being untouched.
There's no red line.
Xbox are now crossing that redline saying, damn it, everybody
gets an Xbox game.
We don't care.
Like you said before, we don'tgive up, let it burn, they don't
(10:05):
care.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Like you said before, we don't give up, let it burn.
Yeah, they don't, man, theydon't.
I mean, as long as you got agaming pass, that's all they
care about Subscriptions,subscriptions, subscriptions.
So subscriptions is the newconsole.
That's what I look at it.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
But the thing is, people should know this
Microsoft based on subscriptionservices.
Microsoft doesn't want you tobuy Word by itself.
They want you to buy thatmonthly subscription for Word.
Yeah for PowerPoint.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Excel, powerpoint, everything.
Yeah, you get an ocean bag.
Yeah, it always been about that, though.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
It always been about that.
At first it used to come withyour computer, I think Word used
to come with your computer.
It was free, it was with yourcomputer.
Now they said bleep you allthis as a service.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
$150, $200 bucks now Minimum.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
But you can buy outright as well.
Yeah, but I think as consumerswe're trained now for monthly,
monthly subscriptioninstallments.
And guess who wins?
They did, they're winning.
And once you say it's on yourcredit card, it's on your credit
for months.
Yeah, you're paying them, keeppaying them.
Yeah, you're paying them, keeppaying them, because it's blind,
you're not seeing it.
I mean it's made as an argumentreference to Microsoft,
(11:06):
microsoft, whatever word and Isay you might as well buy the
whole.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Thing you're right, but I remember at one time and I
was wrong.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Can you still do that can?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
you still buy it outright.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah, okay well, I'm paying you a monthly description
for three or four years.
Why, why, why, why.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Why You're right.
It's not a topic, but you'reright.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
You're right.
I am right, Mr Mason, I'malways right.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Mr Mason, the rare time.
He is the rare time.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I'm always right, mr Mason.
Come on, stop the nonsense, mrMason.
But the funny part discussedthis Xbox as a third-party
studio for Sony.
Basically, they have moreexclusive.
They have more games coming tothem so far coming to
PlayStation.
Then the PlayStationfirst-party developers got
coming to their systems.
(11:54):
The only game we got.
What, mr Mason?
Death Stranded 2?
Yeah, death Stranded 2 is whatwe know.
And what else, mr Mason?
You know, I'm talking about theGhost of.
Oh, it's the Shimon.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Part 2 one yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Part 2.
Yotumi, yoti, yeah, yoti, andalso allegedly Fair Games, yes
yes, yes, that's a big alleged.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
We don't know that yet.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
To be honest with you , so you got what Forza 5 coming
to PlayStation.
We got Outer Worlds 2, theIndiana Jones.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Then we got CFDs also .
That came right.
That already came.
That already came already.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
You got Indiana Jones coming this spring.
You got Age of Empire 2.
Mm-hmm, I mean, it's amazing.
That's off the back right there, off the top of my head.
That's more games for the Xbox.
Quote, quote the third-partydeveloper coming to the
PlayStation 5, which isproducing less games as a
(12:50):
first-party developer to theirown system.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
So there's no exclusive Xbox number?
Is that what you're trying tosay?
What's amazing At the end ofthe podcast?
You're in this podcast.
What's amazing?
No, but my thing is we stillgot Halo.
We still got God of War those.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
We still got Halo, we still got God of War.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Those have never touched another platform yet why
do you keep saying God of War?
I mean pretty sure.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Mr Mays said, god of War.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
I mean sorry, when did God, when did Kratos?
I was gonna say Gears of War,my bad a legend.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Rumor is that if Gears of War has, I would say, a
remaster, oh, a remaster willgo.
Yeah, remaster trilogy, let'ssay Giz 1, 2, 3.
That might come to PlayStation5.
Damn.
Or Halo PS5.
That would be shot If Halocomes bang.
I think that's the bomb.
That's the bomb.
(13:36):
I think it's over.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
When I say it's over, it's like Xbox officially
became a third-party contentmaker.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
That's right, baby.
Third-party baby.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Ain't nothing wrong with it.
You make a lot of money thatway.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
But you got to understand.
As you said, it's business.
They bought these studios.
For how much money, mr Billions?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
You got to make it up you got to get your money back.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
They got to make their money.
The big heads Phil might notagree with them.
Sgt Barr might not agree that Iagree with, though but the big
people that are paying theirsalaries are saying yo, we got
to make some money.
I want to see returns now.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, you're right If not, slashing, slashing,
slashing.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And that slash could be your neck.
Yeah, which sucks.
So that's the way I look at it.
My thing to you is.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
We've had this time before, but my thing is it's
because, let's say, xbox decidesto go that route.
Are we going to see newconsoles, ps5?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
what do you mean?
They're already in that route,mr Nathan they are, but let's
say fully blown, it's like, it'slike the it's come on, it's
funny talk right now with Xboxno, but my thing is if that
happens it's full blown no moreconsoles.
We'll make a subscriptionrecently many interviews I say
many, it's more than oneinterview who say that yo,
there's no red line.
They're crossing that red line,they're making that over.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
No, I'm saying, but do you think?
In fact they ran over that redline and crossed over no I agree
with you, but my thing is wouldyou now see Xbox on a Switch 2?
Would you see theirsubscription as an option to be
used on the newer consoles tocome out, the PlayStation 6 and
(15:10):
the PlayStation 2?
Do you see that happening Ifthey decide to go that route
Because they're no longer yourdirect competitor as hard
consoles?
Speaker 1 (15:19):
anymore, Hardware.
Mr Mason.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
The default console right now is PlayStation 5.
If you see people make jokes,people, the mindset is yo, I'm
going to go home and playPlayStation 5.
Nobody says go play Xbox SeriesX.
I agree.
The mindset of PlayStation 5 isa default console for anybody
who plays video games.
Nintendo Switch is also anotherdefault console.
Xbox, who Xbox?
(15:45):
What?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
You're right because if you're talking to people you
know, younger generations, I'dbe like, hey, you're not going
to play that.
Nah, we don't play that no more.
It's rare you see on Xbox likethey used to be, which sucks and
Halo Master Chief has lost hissex appeal which is true and as
your homeboy what's his name?
Speaker 1 (16:03):
was saying that he liked that Halo series, what
happened to that series?
Cancel, bro, cancel, cause youknow what it was garbage.
And I say it was pure garbage.
You did call it out, I did callit out, I was like trying to
stay up.
It gave us a second season.
Of course, your boy, you know,gene, was like oh, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I didn't watch it, so I can't have an opinion.
I watched it, I didn't see it.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
So I can't have an opinion.
I was embarrassed man, I wasembarrassed garbage, and that
doesn't properly.
You could make a series of allmoving on, you know, but they
fumbled.
They fumbled the ball, bro,they fumbled the ball.
They fumbled the ball likePatrick and the Chiefs, fumbled
the ball in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
The bag was fumbled.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Yo, the bag was fumbled but, mr Amazing, as Xbox
had to showcase of the gamesthat are coming to every system.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
You mean the Sony State of Play and the Xbox
Direct Connect combined showcase?
Yeah, let's talk about it.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Yeah, yeah, Mr Amazing, At that showcase they
had the Doom Dark Ages.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
That was my favorite one there, actually.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Which is coming out May 15th and it's a pretty cool.
It looks very well.
It looks very good.
I've been.
I played the recent CitizenRebooted.
I played all the Rebooted Dooms.
I'm very excited about it.
I'm very pumped up for thatgame.
Dark Ages maybe.
But Mr Amazing ask me thequestion which Citizen should I
(17:32):
get it on?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Well, you should get it for the Xbox, because your
PlayStation is going to be fullup and all of a sudden, it gives
you buy for it.
So you should get it for theXbox.
What do you think about it thatway?
Did you play for the Xbox thelast time?
No, no, what am I saying?
You played it on the last one,on the.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Xbox.
All the Doom games I had is onthe Xbox.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
But there's a funny story I wanted to tell everybody
.
I remember this is what I hateabout this digital age and my
game's not digital the onlineage.
So I was like I think somethinghappened.
I forgot there was a storm, ohand everything was down.
I remember that I'm trying toplay Doom can't connect.
I said, mother, what the what,the what's going on here?
(18:15):
Cause you have to connect tothe server.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
To online to access it.
I was like this is dumb Becauseyour games are safe to the
cloud, so you need to accessthem.
You need some kind of internet.
You need internet access.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Yo, so somehow Microsoft got to check the
license, whatever, and or thegame, or you play that game.
I find that.
That ticked me off.
But, mr Amazing, we're not hereor there or whatever.
You know what I'm saying.
But also a game I really likeis um Southwood Midnight yeah,
maybe I can't say that for awhile.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
The first time I saw it it's coming out.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
It's coming out, april 8th yeah, it's a more
polished.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
the game that you got a manga game played.
It reminds me of that becausethe woman lead character African
American, but this looks morepolished to me, though.
What was that one called?
Again, I apologize, I can'tremember the name, the one that
you guys didn't like that much,but you played it because you
were already invested in it.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yeah, I forgot the name of that stupid game god, I
can't remember it.
I'm so ticked off about that.
It was just like and the girl'san actor, well, actress yeah,
yeah, yeah, that, I know it'sridiculous.
I thought the Ryan was poor.
(19:27):
Well, she's just doing.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
She's just reading lines.
It's like no, but the Ryan waspoor.
The Ryan was poor, not true,ryan was poor.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
It was not a good game.
Now I came out of the top ofthe head what that game is yeah,
I know, but to me this gamereminds me of it.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
You know, the young lady she was kind of like, if
you saw the trailer, she hadlike an issue with her mom.
Then all of a sudden she's inthis whole different world
fighting and it just reminded meof that game.
But you know not to sit hereand compare.
The game is intriguing.
It looks different.
It's more of like a 2D slash,3d artwork kind of thing going
(20:05):
on.
You know, my thing is are yougoing to get this, mike?
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yeah, I'm going to get it.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Yeah, me too.
I think I'm going to jump onthis one too.
It looks very intriguing.
Actually, this is a day one forme, Not a day one, but it's
definitely something I'm goingto purchase Not a day one.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Mr.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Mason, not a day one, but I do want to talk about
what it is going to be a day onefor me that's coming out on the
Xbox, if I well, playstation 5version, because I'm going to
get a PlayStation 5 version.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Ninja.
That's out now.
That's digitally.
The two right, the one.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
That's out digitally now they dropped the two that
same day.
I believe.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Are you going to buy that one?
Yeah, why not?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
the J-Game was always a hard game for me.
I'm not going to lie to you,that's one.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
That game is always a hard game between that.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Shinobi.
Those were hard games for me.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
I don't know why I beat one of them.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Yeah, but it looked good, though I'm definitely
going to get a Ninja Gaiden 4,but I think I should get 2 as
well.
It's out right.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
So why not?
So are you going to buy it orare you going to wait?
I mean, I'll wait till you getit or the digital one.
The digital one You're going tobuy, that one?
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Yeah, yeah, I will actually.
No, anything to do with ninjasamurais.
I'm into that world, that wholeaspect.
That's my world.
I love stuff like that.
So you know, you think abouteverything that came out like
that.
I've mentioned it on the Gameof Traffic show.
I've always went out and boughtthose things.
So, yeah, it's up my alley,I'll get it but sure yeah yeah,
(21:32):
I'll get it.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I don't think you're going to get it, Mr Matthew.
No.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I am.
It's up by my alley, you're aliar.
But you know, to continue withthe Xbox Developed Direct.
Oh sure, I think we might havefinished, michael, that was the
show.
Huh, I think we might havecovered the whole show.
No, I'm just joking.
The Direct.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
What other games did you find interesting on there?
33?
Yeah, it's turn-based.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Turn-based.
Yeah, but that's not my kind ofgame.
That's not how I didn't talkabout it.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
It's an interesting game.
It's from a small studio.
I will.
Would I look into it For adiscount.
It's not my cup of tea.
The game don't look too bad.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
No, it doesn't.
No, it doesn't.
Just like I said, like I wastrying to face a great game, but
I never got to it.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I'm not a turn-based person.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, me too.
So, like I said, I'm not mad atit at all.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
You know what I'm saying, so you won't be seeing
me.
If it's on sale, I might, youknow, get the turn-based game.
Actually, I accidentally boughta turn-based game.
I was like freak it.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Oh wait, there's another game on there that I did
like I like Evolved.
Yeah, me too man you likeEvolved, I actually like that
one.
No, you was into it.
No, no, oh really, I thoughtthat was promising.
No, no.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
No.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Well it looks.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
I'm glad you're going to check it out.
Mr Macy, let's see.
Check it out with your wallet.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Oh, we'll see, it ain't happening.
It ain't happening it ain'thappening.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
I mean, I mean, Mr Macy, let me ask you a question
Are the console wars over?
Is the console war?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
over.
Xbox is not part of it, no more.
But I don't think it's overbecause Nintendo has a lot to
say.
So no, I don't think it's over.
It's no longer Sony versus Xbox.
Now.
It's literally sad to say Sonyversus Nintendo, two Japanese
world powers going at each other.
It might look like Sony's thesuperior one because the numbers
are just crazy from their end.
(23:30):
Just a fun fact I'm going tothrow out there Nintendo
surpassed PlayStation 2 in salesin the United States.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
In the United States.
So they surpassed that andthey're only 15 million away
from the worldwide sales of alltime.
So that goes to show Nintendo'sright there.
So you know putting that outthere.
So it's no longer Xbox versusSony, it's not going to be
Nintendo.
You know it's no longer Xboxversus Sony, it's not going to
be Nintendo.
You know Nintendo's always inthis Nintendo versus Sega.
You know, remember.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Yeah, but don't you think people just don't look at
Nintendo as a Sony competitor asfar as a video game genre at
this time?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And I know why because they don't have the same
AAA games as them.
They don't make that big AAAgames like that also.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
They make AAA games like that also.
They make AAA games, but theaudience is different.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah, exactly, but let's see.
We got a Nintendo Direct comingup.
We'll find more out.
I can't wait to see that, tosee what are they going to find.
Listen and go that route,because that's something that me
and you talk about and otherpeople on different shows talk
about.
Okay, let's be straight uphonest.
(24:38):
At the start of the reveal,were you really pumped up for
the Switch 2?
Okay, no, not at all, becauseit looked like a Switch to me.
I'll be very honest it did.
It looked like a.
Switch to me.
I'm like okay, I saw it.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Let's just keep honest.
Let's just keep honest.
All the hype has died down.
Were you really pumped?
Speaker 2 (24:49):
up.
Okay, yes, no, what you juststated.
It looked like a switch to meand all I saw was a magnetic
connector from the joysticks tothe console, the mouse feature,
which could be a very cool tool.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
I don't know yet a feature nobody's going to use
yeah, I don't know yet.
So unless it allows you tomirror your, your PC to your
switch, mr Maisy, mr Maisy.
I don't know yet it's a featurenobody's gonna use.
We don't know that yet.
It's gonna be used for one ortwo games and never be used
again.
Well, that's a possibility Imight get out of here.
Let's just keep 100 but?
Speaker 2 (25:25):
but I can also make the argument if it ain't broke,
don't fix it.
So Nintendo might have beenlike yo, this is, this is, this
is what got us our money.
We're just going to tweak it,add little things here and there
, make it more, overallexperience better, but we're
(25:45):
going to keep the same hardwareand it's not a bad idea.
So I can see that We'll findout.
I'm holding judgment untilafter the Nintendo showcase.
About the Sony, about the SonyAh.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Nintendo.
Sorry, my thing is like if weask Mom got a game she bought,
she says no, she's not buying it.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
She did say it.
She said that to me yesterdayactually.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
It was all a surprise , yeah, so I'm not too hyped up
about it, but you guys haven'tseen anything yet you can't say
that.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
yet they might come in and be like guess what, Guess
what we got.
We got God of War coming to us.
I'm just playing.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
What's your assessment of God of War?
Have you mentioned it severaltimes?
I don't know actually.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
What happened?
I think I had to go for the DLCthat I never played.
Maybe that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I feel guilty about that.
I don't understand.
It might just be that You'reridiculous man, all right, mr
Amazing, I don't know what elseto say to you about that.
I think you need help.
So, mr Amazing, yes, sir,anything else you want to say
about the Council?
Wars, wars, sorry.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Well, between the two councils, the council's nothing
really, but I digress and wecan continue.

And now that you've gone away, why'd you ask if he
was having money problems?
I'm just trying to find my way.
Did I make you nervous?
Speaker 2 (28:20):
You're an escaped convict trained by mob
accountants.
Your clients are drug cartels,money launderers.

(29:12):
Let me do the talking.
I said him what I thought.
I work for a government agency.
I don't torture people.
You didn't.
I went to Ray and meet withsomeone who killed all these
people.
I actually didn't kill allthose people.
(29:33):
How do you know that?
No, do you often confess tocapital murder?
I actually didn't say anything.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
You get these ideas in your head.
Good for you.
Let's get ourselves killed.
I can feel them coming.
Are you ready?
Yeah, I'm just trying to findmy way.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Mr Amazing accounting tool man starring Ben Affleck,
and what's?
The man who plays the Punisher?
I keep hearing the man's name.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I always know him from Walking Dead Punisher, but
I never knew his name in reallife man.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
It's sad, I should know the man's name.
I always know him from WalkingDead.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Punisher.
I never knew his name in reallife man.
It's sad I should know thatman's name.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
We need to respect that man's name.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Yeah, put some respect on that man's name.
Google the guy that plays inPunisher.
What's his real name?
I'll Google it for you.
Yeah, google it, google, mrAmazing All right, you keep
talking and I'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
But I mean, do we red light or green light this
trailer?
Mr Mason, I'm green lighting it.
I saw the first one.
I thought the first one wasgood.
It took a long time to get asequel.
I forgot the first one came outlike 8 years ago, I believe.
So so I green light it.
It looks very action packed.
The female FBI agent is veryinterested.
It does remind me of JodieForster's character in Sign of
(31:20):
the Lamps.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Where she goes, do you like?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
puzzles.
I'm like oh, you just tookright out of Jodie Forster's
repertoire John Burtow.
Okay, John Burtow, we putrespect to your name, John.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
No, he deserves it, man.
He's a great actor.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
You know what I'm saying, so it's amazing.
My question to you Igreenlighted the trailer.
Do you greenlight it yellowlight or red light?
Speaker 2 (31:42):
the trailer.
I greenlight it also.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah, okay, All right , Coming out April 18th.
Mr Amazing Right around thecorner, yeah right, baby right
Amazing Sam Wilson.
Yo, it's in bro, it's in youknow what I'm saying Yo, he's
(32:07):
there in full effect.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
I feel like he lost weight too.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
I don't know if he lost weight.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
He looks smaller to me.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
But, Mr Amazing, the movie has made overall.
Let me check real quick.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
Because you mentioned off-camera something to me and
then when I saw the numbers, Iwas like what were you talking
about?
Because if you're looking atthe numbers, it sold pretty well
to me, because I mean openingweekend.
It grossed $192 million.
It's opening weekend $100million in the US, $92.4 million
internationally.
It's the biggest opening of2025 so far.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Yes, big old, I was pointing out.
I put the question out there toyou.
What do you think of it?
Speaker 2 (32:45):
I haven't seen the movie yet, but the sales
suggested Well, you can't go bysales.
First weekend open weekend Well, the open weekend sales are
well.
But I did hear a lot ofcritique about him and then word
the fact that tomorrow we'reabout to come out and say we're
not replacing him, he's our guy,we're going to stick with him.
So that's usually telling whensomeone has to come out and then
Wait, wait, that place what.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
I didn't hear, anything.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
People were upset about it so I haven't seen it,
so I can't hold judgment to it.
Where His character?
Because everybody is so used toSteve Rogers.
Yes, miss Mason, go ahead talkto me.
You know why, you know why somepeople are saying I'm trying
not to go that route.
Yeah, you know why some peopleare saying that I'm trying not
to go that route.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
There's some people who feel that way.
But is that something that'sthey're going by?
What?
The comic book?
This is what goes on in thecomic book.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Yes, you keep it true to the story.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
It keeps true to the story.
Stop the BS.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Stop the BS.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
I haven't seen it so I can't say he did a bad job.
He did a good job.
But the argument, is saying, isthat he was more fitted as a
side role but not as the mainCaptain America.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
So do you want?
Speaker 2 (33:55):
him replaced.
They want him.
He can't hold the show, hecan't hold the title, like you
know.
He can't be the man holding awhole movie by himself like his.
His persona doesn't fit it.
They're saying that's what Ilike.
I said this is all speculationsand talks.
I haven't seen it.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I mean, my thing is that he's new to he's new being
Captain America, so he's poking.
If he came out, he's totallyhe's like hooking up and he's
actually just taking over, justlike that.
Sometimes that's not realisticin real life.
I agree.
You know what I'm saying.
So somebody, if you take themantle, how long it took
somebody to find a mantle forMichael Jordan?
(34:32):
The closest is LeBron, andLeBron we still don't look at
him, colby too.
You know what I'm saying, butit's not happening, I think.
Do I think he's Captain America?
No, no, I don't think he's.
You know what I'm saying, butlet's keep it real.
The first adventure movie wasnot a good movie.
It was not a good movie.
(34:54):
Let's keep it 100.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Did you see Captain America the new one?
No, I didn't see it yet.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
I didn't see it yet.
I didn't get to see it yet.
I mean the movie Brave NewWorld.
What it's on, let's see.
According to Screen Rant,that's like a Screen Rant so far
.
According to their big article,captain America Brave New World
box office officially surpassedMarvel's biggest bomb.
Is it a bomb?
(35:20):
Yes, box office explicitlysurpassed Marvel's biggest bomb.
It's a bomb, yes, biggest.
Yeah, it says well, mcu biggestbomb entry gross in just one
week.
That didn't sound like apositive spin on it.
So I'm looking like damn, notlooking good for you, bro, but
the gross if you look at thegross.
The first week after therelease Captain America Brave
(35:42):
New World, worldwide earns havereached over 208 million dollars
, mr Dimension not bad at all,not shabby surpassing the
Marvels, okay, which made 206million dollars total.
What the hell was the Marvels?
I forgot.
I don't remember.
I sit in my head, but milliondollars total.
What the hell was the Marvel Iforgot?
I don't remember.
I sit in my head, but I justdon't remember what was the
(36:03):
Marvels.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
The Marvels, it was the.
Oh, what was it?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
All the three females .
Yeah, garbage, straight,garbage Yo.
I didn't even want the movietheater to watch it.
It came on, I believe it camenot Netflix, it came on Disney
Listen it got 62% Rotten Tomato.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
man the marvels.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
I watched it, I was like I didn't finish it.
I didn't finish it, I didn'tfinish it.
Halfway through I said, no, Ican't do this.
I can't do this to show how badit was.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Budget was $374 million, the final gross was
$307, but they made it under thebudget, so that goes to show
you lost money.
You lost a lot of cheddar.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
And the real problem a lot of people had, that they
lose their Captain America BraveNew World movie to try to tie
up some of the Marvel's looseends oh, that sucks.
That's the problem.
I'm not going to go in theloose ends and tie up.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Nah, especially if you got a new character in there
too, you want to focus on himmore.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
I thought that was not a good idea.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
I agree with you.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
That's why all the reshoots happened, Gotcha.
So, Mr Amazing.
So what do you think the totalgross for that movie?
Speaker 2 (37:12):
I don't think it's going to hit half a billion
Billion.
Excuse me, I think it's goingto fall short under that.
I'm going to put it at 400 andchange 420 something mil what?
Speaker 1 (37:24):
you got what you think.
Yep, I agree Around there, Iagree.
I agree Probably four something, four something.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
I have about 420.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
400 million?
Yeah, I mean watched when itcalled Disney Plus.
I don't know, I'm curious.
I might still go by myself justwatch it become curious and you
know see what happens.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
But uh, you know, I think it'd be kind of cool if we
do an episode where we ask thefans to to poll the community,
yeah the, the, the to pull thecommunity.
Yeah the for what the gamertraffic community to pull a
movie that you and I should gowatch and ask for our feedback
on it.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
I would like to do that alright, mr Maison I think
that would be a cool idea yeah,okay, I think I'd be interested
in that.
Mr Maison, who challengedpeople online to play Street

What did I do?
Why would you give a shout out?
Speaker 1 (39:31):
I got hyped for nothing, yo I still have my damn
wings on my bed.
I have my damn wings this week,Mr Amazing.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I was hoping the topic would have been about me.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Tomorrow can I have my wings tomorrow, Can I?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
get them.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Can I have my wings?
We're working on it.
We're working for months on it.
Go, mr Maze shoot.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Okay, so we're going to call this topic Xbox Series S
A lot of us, to be honest withyou, just call it Xbox Series
saved my life.
So, to be honest with you, thisXbox series saved my life.
So Reddit user Jonesy2282 wasthis closest story and first of
all, I'm happy he's alive.
Where he had just bought anXbox on his way home, he was hit
(40:18):
.
I think it was a.
I'm not sure if it was a truckor what kind of car it was.
It was a truck he was.
He was hit.
I think it was.
I'm not sure if it was a truckor what kind of car it was.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
It was a truck.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
He was hit by a truck dragged about 12 feet.
He suffered a broken bone and alot of fractures, and he hit
himself pretty hard too.
Let me make that clear too.
And the reason he did not dieis because in his backpack he
(40:45):
had an Xbox which was kind of abarrier for him while he was
being dragged, which preventedhim from being more than he's a
lot, to tell the story.
It prevented him from furtherinjuries.
Yeah, from further injuries.
But what's more unique aboutthis story is Mr Jones.
He went home and guess what?
(41:06):
Y'all it still worked the Xboxand the horrible beat up.
There's a picture of that.
I wish this was YouTube so wecould put up the picture for you
guys.
There's a picture out there.
He put it up Xbox scratched up,beat up, but it still worked.
That's kind of cool and Iactually think that Xbox we
should go follow story to see ifthey reached out to him or
(41:28):
anything like that.
Microsoft reached out to himBecause that might be worth
money.
Now People are like, oh, that'sthe Xbox in my life.
It might actually be worthsomething and it still works.
So thanks, shout out to Xboxfor saving Mr Jonesy 2022's life
and he's going strong.
Have you ever heard anythingsimilar to that, michael?
Speaker 1 (41:51):
No.
I did, but not really JesusChrist.
Not like that Is it you, not me, though?
Speaker 2 (41:58):
What Tell me, not us directly, but we spoke about
this on.
Not me, though what Tell me,not us directly?
But we spoke about this on ourshow.
Actually, we heard storieswhere systems keep kids out of
gangs and stuff like that.
I mean, in comparison, we'veheard stuff like that, nothing
to where it physically savedyour life.
That's about it.
(42:18):
Shut the hell up.
Speaker 1 (42:21):
What the hell are you talking about, hey?
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Dude, let me ask you a question in regards to this
topic.
Speaker 1 (42:29):
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
So you have an Xbox that's all scuffed up but works
flawlessly.
Would you sell it to make aprofit Because it's getting
notoriety, or would you justkeep it because, hey, this means
profit, because it's gettingnotoriety?
Or would you just keep itbecause, hey, this means
something, because it literallysaved your life?
What would you do with the Xboxand someone's offering you a
million dollars?
Speaker 1 (42:48):
I got to see the beat up condition.
I forgot the picture of thatXbox we're talking about.
I could find it for you.
Speaker 2 (42:55):
But my thing is, what would you do if it was yours?
Sell it, you sell it.
Yeah, michael's about the moneyman, he doesn't care about the
thing that saved his life, it'salways about the money.
Hey, what we just said earlierin the show, it's just business
(43:15):
y'all don't take it personal,it's just business, baby it's
business.
I'm with you.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
I'm probably still mine too beat up crap, forget
the it still works though, buddyman get out of here, get out of
here, yo get out of here.
Speaker 2 (43:30):
All right, man, that's pretty much it for me on
my end.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
We know Mr Mason.
We know Mr Mason.
But Mr Mason, should we care?
Top of the week.
Oh nice, what we got.
Mr Mason, you go into sportsfor later and those are gaming
show.
Well, we do touch on sports.
Yes, we do.
The New York Yankees havefinally dropped their positive
facial hair.
Speaker 2 (43:49):
I saw that that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (43:50):
Should we care a lot, a little or not at all?
And will this affect MLB, theShow 25?
Can my character now play theYankees with a beard?
Wait, they couldn't before.
Speaker 2 (44:06):
I don't know.
That's interesting.
I don't know the answer to that.
I mean no Shave November.
They can participate in thatnow Wait, no, is it no Shave
November or no Nut November?
There is a no Shave November.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
I know you're not saying November, we'll skip what
you just said earlier, although.
Speaker 2 (44:24):
I heard that part, but it is a thing, though.
Actually it is a thing.
I mean I saw that.
Do I care?
It's intriguing.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
You care a lot, a little, not at all.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I think it's intriguing because it's going to
be weird seeing Yankee playerswith beards.
Imagine Derek, jeter, bernie,bernie, I'm going to say Sanders
.
Bernie Williams, those guysthose guys that you know.
It's whatever.
I think it's cool, I think it'sabout.
I think it was about time.
It was about time you let it go.
You got rid of the policy.
It's a couple of decades oldpolicy.
It was outdated.
(44:57):
To me, personally, it'swhatever.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
I mean my thing, I'm so used to it.
I don't even care, I'm so usedto it like, alright, you know
what I'm saying.
I really don't care.

Speaker 1 (46:35):

Mason, simultaneously.
Mr Mason for the PlayStationOutage, which they didn't
apologize for.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
They never said what it was.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
It makes me even more pissed off, so that's the
gangster move, Knowing that Idon't have to tell you because
you're still going to play whatyou're going to play Xbox.
Laugh at you, Mr Amazing.
And that's the gangster move.
That's the gangster move.

Just know, you're just back off.
That's what you need to know.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
Shut your mouth and know your role and play the damn
game.
Speaker 2 (47:08):
That's actually a pretty good one actually, but I
did wish they'd tell us why,because I think it might have
been something that they wantpeople to panic.
That's what I think it was.

I think so, and it's the way See credit cards got
compromised and that's alsogetting the way we're doing
maintenance.
