Google.com. I can't.
Oh, man. All right, let's get to the the
games we played. Of course we had the the tier
list last week. So yeah, we missed a week of
talking, but we didn't play anything last week, right?
So. So that being said, what was it?

(02:52):
Absalom? It was a turbo and style.
How'd that go? That went very well.
I'm curious to know what do you think, Turbo?
I think it was dope. You know, you got to be very
suspicious when it comes to these roguelikes.
But again, you know, dot is it emu or dot MU?
I never dot emu, dot emu, OK. You know, they they prove

(03:15):
themselves. They've proven themselves.
I think man, in this industry already.
And this you, you know the way the hits feel, man.
Is it lizard cube? The hits what?
Lizzy Cube. They made all.
Of OK, all right that. They not even as.
Attached the publisher they theythink they sometimes develop
too, but. Yes, Streets Race 4 Shinobi.
Tribute games, Lizzy Cube, yeah,they're kind of like, yeah,

(03:36):
they, they're, they, you know, they're the devs that you.
Know handle the accidents OK cool cool.
Cool. Yeah, but no, I mean, the
gameplay is very good. The hits are great.
I like what is the chicks name again?
Cider. Cider right?
Yes I was serving people drinks the whole entire game.
It was insane. This chick, I like that, but the
dwarf Gillius, Lord of the ringsgilliest looking guy was he's

(03:59):
cool too. They're all they're all good.
That's. Not his name.
I know, but it's like he he looks like.
I was about to leave. He's he's inspired by him and
stuff. So it was good.
We were getting far and yeah, wehad the forfeit.
We didn't even like Die I, I couldn't continue the stream.
I was. Like the second?
We Oh yeah, we beat the second boss on some silly shit.
The revivals were crazy. Oh yeah, that shouldn't have

(04:22):
beat. That no, we shouldn't have.
We definitely, we definitely. We're playing.
Turbo died like 7 times on that board.
He said, all right, I'm gonna goout the bounce ball, all right,
just. And then at one point he said,
don't even revive me anymore. White flag, man.
That was it. Yeah, Gimli.
Thanks. Bizarre.
Yeah, it was Gimli. I said Gilius, that's a Golden
Axe. I think that's Thunderhead.

(04:42):
Yeah, I'm picking the Gilius Thunderhead.
Yeah, yeah. But yeah, this, this Absalom is
still one of those that I, I just could just throw the game
right in anytime. They're inspired by Golden
Golden Axe in there too, right? Hell yeah with the.
With the animals. Yeah, they they should do a
Golden Axe. Man, I I think that should be
next year. I think Golden Axe or Guardian

(05:03):
Heroes, Oh, they they would murder that.
Yeah, Guardian Heroes would. Be insane done like that dude.
The game is impressive. I see why it gets the praise of
the gets. It deserves it and you know this
is another notch for dot emu. It's so funny, right?
Nice. That emu, the catalog.
It's funny that since Turbo's been away for a while, it's like

(05:24):
we got to start introducing you to the games you've missed.
I'm like, I'm like, Absalom is number 1.
Then you gotta get Double Dragonrevived.
I'll get that. Then you gotta get Claire
Obscure. Then you gotta get.
Like it's. A lot of games, yeah, but you're
here in time for Cosmic invasion, so that's.
Good, True. Alright, bullet.
So I'm ready to go. And then don't have.
Game Pass? Oh yeah, don't have.
Game pass style and sticks. You guys played double dragon

(05:47):
revive right? Yep, we were the Lee brothers.
Yeah, oh that's right, I had to introduce Styx into Double
Dragon Revive, so gotta hear your thoughts man.
What a time it was, yeah. What a time story man Fucking.
It was so much fun. No, it was a lot of fun.

(06:09):
There's a lot of shenanigans that happened in the game.
Oh yeah. You could throw people pretty
much anywhere on the stage, out windows, and you could drown
them in little ponds. Yeah, it's.
Ridiculous. Yeah, man, it's ridiculous.
Yeah, it's one of the more fun double Dragons.
Like, you know, I had my reservations seeing the trailer

(06:29):
and I was like, I don't know if this one's going to be the one
because I didn't understand whatthey were doing and they were
flying everywhere in the trailer.
I'm like this is you hit them and they go so far but but I
didn't see that you can grab them and choke slam them to the.
Ground right, that changes. The entire game and you can
juggle them off of walls and hopoff the wall and do a whole
bunch of stuff. Man, it's pretty dope.
It's it's it's great. And I said the one thing that it

(06:52):
had to do was be fun and that itis.
So if you have any reservations about playing this game, try it
out. If you like beat em UPS it's
it's going to be a fun. Time.
What do you, what do you think about the, the, the, the
platforming stages like the the like I like for me personally?
I like put it there just for thehell of.
It I know, but I like I like thefact that they put it there, but

(07:13):
it's like they. They don't have to use it.
Right. And they don't even take it
seriously. They did it more of a nostalgia
thing. Like Double Dragon has nonsense
obstacles, right? Here goes some nonsense
obstacles, but it's like you're not going to be stuck there.
Yeah. You're not going to lose a life.
And they put a checkpoint right after it, so it's like it's
perfectly placed it let's just like Top Hat said, he said.
You know, it's, it's put in there.

(07:33):
It's more you laughing at falling everywhere and then then
it ends, you know, but it's funny because after we were done
playing the game, we were havinga discussion about what's the
top double dragon game, you know, and we, we narrowed it
down to 4, right. 4 double dragon games, double dragon
Gaiden, double dragon revive, double dragon 2 for the NES and
double dragon neon for me with awith 5th place would be super

(07:56):
double dragon for me but I don'tknow which one's number one.
I can't tell you what's number one cuz they're all so
different. They're so different.
I get different things from eachone, right?
Don't. Forget advanced, I forgot.
Advanced I would give For me personally, I would give
advanced number six. Really.
I love Super Double Dragon like I love the fuck out of Super
Double. Dragon Advanced was great.
That was a great one. But but these these hit on on so

(08:19):
many Gaiden and revive. I've been throwing this game in
a lot lately. The boss battles and the music
is the best in the series. Yeah.
The one for Zebu was good too. Zibo was good.
Solid it was. I haven't said that one yet.
Solid pasta. Debo it's a it's a solid game.
I haven't played that one yet, but this soundtrack is Oh my
God. Jesus.

(08:39):
That ain't the thing with the music.
That was the most surprising thing about the game.
It was the soundtrack. The the remix that.
Wasn't expected, yeah. Wasn't expected.
It it's it hits. And even the new tracks I'm like
what the it's club shit. I love the stage design.
Like they did shit that that wasnever done in in like a beat em
a 3D beat em up Where like what was it that that I forgot what

(09:00):
it was like a Asian. Oh, like the temple before you
fight Ranzo, right. Yeah, you go up the stairs and
then the angle changes, but it'sin the same stage.
Yeah, but it's like it. It just changes different,
different angles, which is pretty, pretty solid.
They gave the regular charactersmore personality, yeah, by
making them bosses, yeah. And I was like, yeah, they do
deserve to be bosses by now. Williams yeah, they've been

(09:21):
Linda Roper They've been like corny.
Hench men for years. Like really corny, give him give
him some personality and. Yeah, boss fights are fun, Yeah.
Very best, Best in the series. Yeah, best boss fights in the.
Very very fun. Best music and best boss fights
in the series. So that stands down Revive is
is. I mean, there's still a few
tracks in Neon that can't be. Tough Neon's got something they

(09:43):
they neon. They didn't remix anything.
They they remix a track from Double Dragon 2 that I
completely forgot. I was watching a playthrough
with Double Dragon Neon the other day.
I was, I was like, they remix this, why don't I remember this?
And I'm like, damn, I gotta download the soundtrack now.
Yeah, but that's what happens when, you know, it's like a
recency bias. You know, it's like, I haven't
played Neon in so long. It's easy to say Revive is
better but right Neon is so dope.

(10:04):
Right, it's. So dope.
So it's tough to say actually, let's do something a little
different cuz I know we're playing the same games, me and
the style. So I want you to talk about it
since I've already started, you know, talked about it before,
but clear obscure. Yeah, we finally started it, man
Yeah, I got what's happening. I played what, 2 hours before
the podcast? So I got like 7, probably 7

(10:25):
hours into the game. I mean, there's a lot I could do
a whole podcast about this because there's just so much to
appreciate, you know, like it's,it's, it's to me, it's like it's
just an art. Like the game is art, you know,
like just from, from every from the menus to the, the story, the
voice acting, the character design, the strategy in terms of

(10:46):
the, the battles, the dodging, the the parrying, the jumping,
the music, the music, how it goes along with how the battle
is going. You're playing a a movie, a
movie, art like comic book or oror or or.
It's just. I think it's the best argument
for art as a video game. Yeah, and and the thing the one

(11:07):
of the first things I told you guys, this one of the first
things I thought of cuz like I Idon't really play too many turn
base. Something has to stand out about
it cuz it's not my type of game.Like this is not my type of game
to play. I know see a stars.
I just like the way that looked so much and I played through it
and I loved it. Same thing with this.
It just whenever I see modern JRPGS, they kind of look like

(11:29):
real time games. So I always think, why isn't
this a real time beat them up tight except something this game
does with the angles they use, the effects they use on the
moves to make it feel more than just oh, I'm just going up to
them and attacking them, you know, and.
It's cinematic. Yeah, and, and even hench men

(11:50):
are like epic. They're like they're big.
They look like they're part of the journey that you're going
on. So that's that's what I really,
really enjoyed. And there's something special
about the last hit in the fight that just slows down like a it,
it feels more impactful. Yeah.
Then then it's like satisfying like in Smash Brothers Ultimate,

(12:11):
right? Hit that last hit the zoom in
and the that sound it's more like those things are double
Dragon to the NES for the NES, right.
The last boss. Yep.
The you hit him with the knee and the, you know, the slow
down. It's satisfying.
It's so satisfying, especially when you're on a tough boss and
you you beat him and that slow down.
Oh man, I like him when you justhit those dodges out of fear.

(12:34):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But actually that counter, like,
oh fuck you, I got the upper hand, you know, like.
How the impact is? How they do they do an amazing
job at that. A small team doing this.
Yeah, no, it's that's that's what baffles me about the hoping
it changes the game moving forward because I see fantasy *1
being redone like this. I could see fantasy *2 being

(12:56):
done like this, like many RPGs that could get the treatment.
Yeah, no, it's just a pleasure to play through.
To me. It's like I compared it.
Obviously not doesn't play anything like it, but I compared
it to Overcook on how Overcook changed the game for
multiplayer. Yeah, this kind of changes the
game and kind of resets the genre to all right.

(13:18):
Now this is the standard Yeah, because it's what everyone has
to to reach. I like the the also like even
though it's turn based, but theyalso give you the freedom for
the the projectile. Like when everybody has a
projectile move. Yeah, and they give you the
freedom to shoot wherever. Yeah, I love and it's blasting
the shit out man Fun as hell. The thing you used to be able to
do in a turn based role player is pretty much Fast forward,

(13:40):
right? If you hold down the button,
right, you can just mash the button, not even look at the
screen. Like, OK, I just grind and
getting stuff. You know, you're not really
thinking. I mean, sometimes you can do,
you know, a good one and strategy involved, but most of
the time you're just mash it on a button.
They made it so that you cannot do that.
Yeah, no, that's that's and thatmakes it more engaging.
That's why I appeal to it, because I'm a strategy RPG guy.
That's my number one. I love that genre.

(14:02):
I love strategy RPGs. And it's just opening up and
this and this and. Sticks was telling me shit I
didn't even know today and I said that added more strategy.
Actually, I learned to how I to how I approach matches.
I said now that actually is pretty fucking cool cuz that cuz
that could change from this is atough battle.
So I just whoop your ass in two rounds like that could change it
real quick. So yeah, I mean these I hope

(14:23):
they get every award that cuz they deserve it.
I hope they let they let my my game shinobi eat.
Because. Shinobi is a 10 out of 10.
I don't care what anyone says. Shinobi is a beautiful work of
talk about art piece. Shinobi is an art piece that is
fucking beautiful, but this, this, this changes the game for
for that genre, and I think everything should follow.

(14:45):
Steal everything from this game.Yeah, yeah, I don't give a fuck.
Steal, right? Yeah, if you even a slight Final
Fantasy fan, you owe it to yourself to play this game.
Yeah, Turbo. Yeah, chalk.
I'm gonna get to. I'm gonna.
Play this. Game.
If you ever thought Final Fantasy was magical and it
hasn't had that magic in a while, you need to play.
This. No, For real though, it's a
recommendation. The thing about this game is

(15:05):
that it's a. It's a I'm trying to find a word
for it, but it's like, you know,some people only play certain
types of games. This is the type of game to get
someone who doesn't mess with those type games.
Yeah. To transition into transition
style. Well, that's why I know that
you're not into the turn base, but I'm like, no, you're you're
gonna like this. I'm really a weirdo when it
comes to that. Like I'll mess with Soykuden,

(15:25):
right? And I'll mess with, you know,
like here and there. If I like the art, I'll mess
with, you know, character design.
I'll mess with it. But no, no, everything like I
was 2 hours in, I said no, this is special.
Right off the jump. You're like, whoa, what the cuz?
I'm intrigued to know the story.I don't know what's going on,
what's happening in this little town or whatever.
And I'm like, it's epic, man. And then when obviously I don't

(15:46):
want to ruin anything. But when you arrive, when you
arrived to at the beginning, you're like, oh fuck yeah.
I was like fuck yeah. But no, it's fucking beautiful.
It deserves everything if it wins everything, right?
Except for the Shinobi award. But like, you know, it'd be the
person getting the game it deserves.
It deserves everything they theyget.
Well, they've already ran through a lot of award shows for

(16:07):
every nomination they've gotten,right?
They pretty much they. Cleared it.
They they they cleared it. Swept every.
Oh, wow, yeah, wow. I have no problem with that.
I don't. It deserves it.
And the fine thing is there's like not one this is I give this
is like Absalom. And it's like blasphemous to me
when it comes to the music because there's not one track
that's it's just. A.
Don't start to stand. Just a just a big giant

(16:29):
masterpiece of music. That's just how we can go left
and like, whoa, whoa, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's change up. You're like, wait, what?
But I like that, though. I don't want it to sound one
way. I like weird shit thrown in
there, like the fucking amusement park shit in the near
Automata. Yeah, that shit's one of the
best tracks in the game when you're going up the roller
coaster. I'm like, Oh yeah, this is
weird, but it's so powerful withthe fireworks and shit.

(16:50):
It's like, I love stuff like that, but they, they fucking
murdered it, man. They killed it.
But I just need more time to fucking play it.
Like for like 7 hours. Can I just sit down?
Can I, Can my job fire me for a day?
Pause. I mean, you could just not go in
that you go fire, can't get fired.

(17:10):
You're on to something. Oh man, you'll.
Have about a week of somebody. Wow.
Other other than that, of course, I had to dabble in some
cosmic invasion. Yeah, I also played that too.
I had to dabble. I said let me try a stage.
I played five stages. I couldn't stop playing this
rocket. Game Nah and and the stages are
like quick enough for you to go through so you can just pick it
up play it Yep and be good like.And mess around with characters.

(17:34):
Everyone's dope. There's no one that sucks.
I can't pick one. I can't decide.
It was 8. Right now there is 8 or 9
available. You have to unlock the four of
them. Oh, there's more.
There's more available. Then there's 11.
There's 11 available. There's eleven.
Yeah. I love Noah.
Noah. Nova.
Nova. I love Nova.
He he's he's very fun to use. Captain America, Wolverine,

(17:54):
those are my guys. So why they put the goat in
instead of? Why did they put the goat in?
Bella Ray. Ray, Bill.
Yeah, but it's that that. Cosmic shit.
I'm seeing him. I'm like, why is he here?
Dude, the animation looks like it's all is Fantastic Four 80.
Well, I haven't used them but like.
Black Panther is fun. He's very I like Black Panther.
He's I like Black Panther. I like.

(18:16):
And I want to try Cosmic Ghostwriter.
I haven't tried him. Iron Man is dope.
Do you have a fish tank on the side?
Yeah. Kind of, yeah, no.
But everyone's already talking about DLC.
They're like, fucking Cyclops needs to get in here, we need
Cyclops. I'm like.
Well, you know, they're gonna add different outfits.
Yeah, you know that. Well, they have the different
colors already. They got the.
Different. They got different.
Wolverines yellow that's in there already all.

(18:37):
Right. That was the major one.
The game plays like a homage though to like every single side
scrolling. It plays a It pays homage to
Spider Man in the arcade. It pays homage to Captain
America and The Avengers. And Marvel versus Capcom.
Freaking yeah. Marvel versus Cap.
Right. Yeah, they stole some animation.
Cannon from fucking Iron Man that is right from that game.

(18:59):
I'm like, they just like they were influenced by all those
games like I felt them like. But it feels the most like the
newest turtles, yes? It feels like a lot like Shreds.
They need to just release an X-Men pack, some Avengers pack,
and then release a random. Pack and they put Hawkeye in
this game for. Me, the Hawkeye would be solid
as fucking this. Dude, like that's cool, just
just they're not in. There.
No, they're not weird, right? No.

(19:22):
Oh, Daredevil would be good in this game.
Yeah, he was. Put the whole MCU in there.
Just keep that man. Put like 20 more characters, I
don't think we would care if. You're throwing funny showing
movie I got just throw them in this game it's.
It's worked. It works.
They have enough characters, man.
They got it. They got it.
Facts though. But it's easily.
It's just those are the only two, right?
Yeah. And then?
We're definitely see it on the channel.

(19:42):
Oh, that's definitely that's. Happening probably this week.
For Thanksgiving, damn it. Might have to play for Friday.
I only had about an hour into this game just to just to try it
out. And I didn't want to get
addicted to it, but I started Assassin's Creed Shadows.
Oh, you started PS Five? Yeah.
And I was like, all right, I gotta turn this off because.
You know it's gonna be. You know what's crazy?

(20:03):
I know, but I'm low key. I'm dying to play that dude.
I'm like like right after Clare UPS here.
I'm like, I might just buy this and just because I've been dying
to play that game. Well, I got a Black Friday sale.
30 What was it? A GameFly, believe it or not,
that we're selling the shit. 35 That's solid physical copy.
Not bad. We're talking to Mahmoud,
Captain Crunch, 31, and he was like, yeah, I got like 120 hours

(20:27):
outside. Yeah, that's right.
He said that. He said that last night.
I was like. I play casually at a.
You know 100. And 20 That's funny, but.
He's like, I don't want to end. He's like, I'm the last thing I
don't want to end. I'm he's a game.
I'm like, it's that good. It's like Survivor for me.
I'm like, I didn't want that shit to end.
No, it's that people are saying that it's like their favorite
Assassin's Creed. They say it's a well, like a.

(20:49):
It's like a kind of a, a reset again after the last three A.
Clip for the Internet is one of the worst games ever made.
Wow. Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, because they've never
played it. Yeah, they've never touched the
game. Except for the the last DLC they
released. Man it made no sense.
I heard it was an attack on Titan.
Oh yeah, now they do. That I read about.
That was why. Fucking weird man.

(21:10):
Do a Final Fantasy. They do a lot of cross, I mean.
Look, I, I watched some of it and I was just like, all right,
it look, it doesn't look bad, but it's just like, why?
What's it doing here, right? Like what is it doing?
What are you doing? Somebody got paid.
Right, They were smart. They would have crossed it over
with Demon Slayer. That makes more sense.
Yeah, it makes more sense. Bring back Tenshu.
No, this is somebody broke down the wall, he said Don't Attack

(21:32):
on Titan, dude can do that. And then they put him in there.
Or origami, but that like this characters me.
Yo, that'd be weird. Origami all day, man. 51
missions. Yeah.
Yeah, but this? 51 missions.
This was crazy, man. I was like, this is very, very,
very beginning of the game. Hair looks crazy.

(21:54):
I saw. I saw Yasuke.
I think that's his name, right? Yasuke Yeah, Pop off dude's
head. Yep.
In the middle of a combo I said yeah, I got to get this soon.
I want to pop off someone's head.
And the fact that this was not Co-op is a tragedy.
Yeah. Why was it Co-op?
Because. Then it'll be 50 hours.
They play very different. I know that's.
Per hours. Perfect.

(22:15):
I would play to Co-op 50 hours. That'd be great.
I would, man. Listen, I'll be on this channel
and Kev would be a perfect partner.
He'd be the samurai. Because there's no fucking
stealth. True.
Yeah. So you don't have to be the
boot. Yeah.
Yeah, you don't have to worry. About walk in the front door and
talk about. But that'll be perfect.
Yeah, that's perfect. He'd be like, how?
How come they saw me? I just walked in the front door

(22:37):
how they see me. Well, you can't trip.
You can't trip to the front door.
Wow, it's not a good representation.
Truck you played that was not this past Friday, but the Friday
before you play more of the street fighters.
Hell yeah, man. I play Street Fighter.
I love that. Shit, I called this back.
Yeah, I'm trying to get back. Getting those WS.

(22:57):
No, I actually I broke kind of even like I was playing against
this diamond player and the first two rounds he whooped my
ass. But I think we we we ended up
breaking even 2 and 2 diamond. Right.
Oh, diamond player diamond there.
So what the fuck? Yeah, No, first of all, what the
fuck? What that was made?

(23:18):
No, that's from a from. A Cameron.
'S mom. That was Cameron's crackhead
mom. Jesus, man, I'm like, huh, she
said. Ain't no diamonds.
There Street Fighter 6 is such awell done game and I need to it
is put more time into it and start taking taking names again.
I always wanted to play Street Fighter 6.
No, it's. Step up bro.

(23:39):
No, I probably will get it when I get the switch to when I get
the fire MM game I'll. Probably Oh, that's a great
fucked up. I say great port I've had I'll.
I'll most likely get it for a year.
You have you had it for fucking year.
Well, I mean. I bought this shit was on sale.
Like, you know what let me get it.
I've never touched it in plastic.
Never touched that's. Wild.

(24:00):
Never. The base game was 20 bucks.
This no, I was on. It was a digital.
It was a digital copy. Yeah, man, I never fired it.
I'll get it for the switch too when I get switched too many
games. As soon as the chat donates.
Right now you can make sure toy dirt style gets a.
Switch too. Wow, wow.
Now, but to dedicate yourself toto, you know, to to start
playing and then like learning character, I would need to like

(24:23):
a bracket of time, yeah, to dedicate to that game because
I've never played it. I played Street Fighter
obviously, so that's good. I only played the demo.
You really like Terry? Terry, I would pick for you, I
would pick. I would pick Cammy and I would
pick Rasheed. He looks interesting.
Rasheed looks dope. Rasheed looks.
Fun. I forgot how to play for me.
That's why I haven't jumped backonline.
I forgot how to play. Yeah, see that's.

(24:44):
Just what characters who I was ill with.
I'm like yo, I don't even know how to do a special yo just.
Jumps in about casual. You just gotta jump in and get
murdered. Yeah, I mean.
That's it dude. The easiest way to learn.
Just gotta get chess cake, that's all.
Eddie Raymond, what's going on? What?
I'm Eddie, yo. Yeah man, but and I also
finished Ninja Gaiden 4. Yeah, always right we.

(25:06):
Finished it nice. I finished it.
I finished it. Good shit.
I attempted to play it again andthe power went out, so it kind
of killed my momentum. Like, I literally was like, oh,
I'm killing them. I'm doing it all right.
You know, the power did go out, man.
I have my PS-5 on freaking sleepmode and I never turn it off.
So I was always, you know, they get the updates and everything.
Yeah, all the power. And then one day I freaking went

(25:27):
to, I'm like, what? This shit's off.
I was like, damn, yeah. Killing these as well.
I was like, yeah, are you touching me?
Like, and I had to go somewhere.I'm like, oh, I'm done.
Yeah, but now that game is mad fun.
Just the way you dismember your enemies.
It's mad. It's just.
So does Ryu play better in Part 4 than he does in the past?
How about you stop asking this? Question, you know it's it's I

(25:48):
just. Stop asking these.
Questions. I just want to play the game.
I play a game I don't have. Game Pass I can't play.
Well, I do have Game Pass. I'm on the the essential.
Team why just pay $70 and buy it?
No, I mean. Not yet.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
No SO. Buy it.
Let me tell you, Yakimo's weapons are are cool.
They're cool as hell. Whack a mole.
I don't see them. Sorry.
You know what? Whack A mole.

(26:08):
No, let's move on. Can't be doing this.
I don't switch. Between them at, you know, at
will yet a little bit. I just got the well, I'm on
stage 10 now, so I got the thirdweapon.
I use what they give me for a while so just so I can build it
up of course, but I don't switchin between combos and stuff
sticks. As well, I started, I started
trying to, but like there's a, there's a slight delay when

(26:30):
you're when you switch your weapon.
So yeah, I mean, you'll figure it out.
Sticks is waiting for. That DLC Garden 4 better than
rage bound. I didn't play rage bound, what
did you play? He's yeah, he'll just keep
saying. He's like a, he's like a.
He's not done. And one more thing one.
More. He's not done.
Oh. What's up, Marvel wobbles.
Wobble, wobble. I'm not putting footage of that

(26:51):
anymore, man. You say that shit every week,
man. I'm tired of putting the
footage. It's almost been, it's almost
like the year anniversary of that, of that.
Game has it been a year? Almost no.
Yes, it was. January.
Nah. I mean, it's just about.
Of this year. No, no, it came out December of
last year. Season 0 was December.
Oh. It was January, it's all a year
already. I had no idea.
Season 1 started in January. That's what I meant.

(27:14):
Yeah, Season 0 was was December.I didn't even know this was
season 0. They released this 18 versus 18
Annihilation game mode 18 on 18/18 on 18.
Annihilation. Yeah, and I think it's it's it's
kills only it's like deathmatch.So the first.
You die. You no.
No, no, you, you keep responding, but it's the first

(27:34):
team to 120 wins. Oh my God.
That's fun though, but you got to keep in mind that like
sometimes, like Hawkeye can one shot a healer.
Yeah, yeah. With a headshot.
So, you know, those games go pretty quick.
Bad fun. Though you can't be out in the
open as a. Healer, you know, I gotta give
them credit because they're trying out other modes to get
other types of people into that game because.

(27:55):
That sounds fun. Because the competitive shit,
you know, a lot of people like, fuck this, they're cheating.
I ain't playing this. But they got other modes now,
yeah, that are actually cool. Actually.
I'm dying to come back to it. I just need to find more.
Time, I must say I was able to mess.
I finally got a little bit of time to mess with Marvel Rivals.
I messed with Gambit and freaking Blade.
They're both dope. I know they're both dope.
Especially Gambit is complex. I still don't trust you plant

(28:19):
trying to play as. Healers.
Oh, no. Get me in there, man.
Get me in there. Yeah, I know it.
What'd you play, Turbo? OK.
Oh, first we write down the time.
Final Fantasy Tactics. All right, I didn't just beat
Final fan. I beat it to death.
I beat it to death. I'll tell you what I mean by
that. I explain.
I beat, I beat it to death. No, I killed.
No. I their explanation that last

(28:40):
boss fight. No, I murdered that last boss
fast. I built Ramza the main
character. I built him up crazy this time
around than I did 20 years ago when I played this on the PS1.
I made his ass a freaking samurai you.
Made him humble. I made it first.
I I trained to be a samurai. I got all the freak.
What? Did you made him humble?

(29:01):
I made I made him humble. I really did actually, I made
him a samurai, right? Masters the samurai job class,
whatever. And then I also mastered his
gallant night class. I got the chaos blade right.
I gave him this technique calleddouble hand, which means you you
hold a weapon with two hands even though you're he doesn't
physically hold it with two hands, but that's what the skill

(29:21):
gives him. So it makes his freaking his his
attack. Like they say double, but I feel
like it quadruples his freaking power.
So I was taking like 999 a hit off the last freaking ball.
9999. 9. 90 boy wow. 999999. Inside joke.

(29:41):
Inside joke, everyone. But no, I was taking, I was like
wow, like sometimes I was taking850 off some people.
No one was able to fuck with him.
So I just after a couple of hits, the boss was just dead.
I was like. Yo better than triangle
strategy? No.
But the Kane's jump technique todouble down on the jump to kill
him with the Kane 999. No, I.
I was some of the nights at the round for 99999999.

(30:03):
You got to give the audience a back story to that because they
don't know what the fuck they'retalking.
About, I mean, they played both players.
They know what, 999? 9/9 No, there's a there's a back
story to that. Exactly.
They know what it means. A friend of ours in high school,
he played the hell out of Final Fantasy 7 and he he built up the
Knights of the Round summon so high that it was taking
literally 9999 with each hit offa Sephiroth.

(30:27):
But he has like a nasally voice,but he kept repeating.
He kept repeating it. He's like, I fought this.
I fought this guy and I took away 999-9999 and then I took
away 9/9 and then I killed him because I took away 9 million.
10,000 or 100,000. I was like, oh, he just kept
saying that he was flexing then.He was, he was flexing.
He was flexing. But in Final Fantasy Tactics,
when you see 9999 from a freaking strike, you're like,

(30:49):
oh. Shit, the same as you feel in
every role play when you see that.
I hit him with the freaking the chaos blade I took I got because
I didn't beat this right away. I went to the freaking special
dungeon. Like I said, the other the the
two weeks ago I got every special item in that dungeon and
I just was like OK, now it's notto face last.
Voice so it's worth the the playthrough?
No, it's. It was worth the playthrough.

(31:09):
It's a great, it's a fantastic. Well, you're like the original,
so you're gonna like this with alittle bit better.
Well, this, yeah. And no.
The voice, the voice acting as well is top notch that the the
original didn't have voice acting.
This one's got voice acting and it was it's it's stellar.
It got me and I'll tell you right now, I was when I first
played the game, the story, I was just like, oh God, like this

(31:31):
is just this is too much. I can't I couldn't really follow
it too much. I didn't like the story and now
after I've watched Game of Thrones, I had more of
appreciation for the game story and now it's I, I get the story
more. I'm, I'm older, I'm more mature,
so I'm like, I like the story. This is not a bad story.
I still think Triangle Strategy has a stronger story, stronger
characterization, larger scale battles, and I like that as a

(31:55):
better it's, it's a better strategy RPG experience.
But Final Fantasy Tactics still holds up.
It's still an excellent game. It's still a flag bearer for the
genre. So I would be furious if they
came out with Shining Force 3 and they just put like a fresh
coat of paint on it and it's still jaggedy and ugly and I'd
be like, you lazy wow of shit fucking.

(32:16):
Not doing it. You can't.
Hamlet doesn't exist. I know someone have to be like,
oh, let me get that. All right, let's do it.
No ones doing that. You get the guys who doing
everybody's golf. Everyone.
Everybody's golf, they did it actually.
Camera was that. And you played terrible.
You played the Octopath Travelerthe demo.
Yes, I downloaded the demo 'cause I was like, look, you

(32:37):
guys know how my history with Octopath Traveler series, I'm
still playing the second one by the way, have about 45 hours in
that one. But playing Zero, I have a free
demo. And I was like, when this game
got announced, the Octopath Traveler Zero, I was like, oh
God, how many more of these games are they going to have?
I'm like. I mean, they're at zero 100.
Hours, I was like, how many? I was like like they're beat

(32:58):
like 2 is better than one, but I'm like they're beating the
formula to death. So I was like, you know what,
let me not judge it too harshly.Let me download the demo.
I download the demo. I played it, You know, I give a
three hour time limit and I'm impressed.
I'm very, very impressed with Oxopath Traveler 0 because they
take a different approach than they did with with the first two
games. How so?
How so? OK, I know I didn't get a chance

(33:21):
to even this feature's in the game, but I didn't get far
enough to unlock this feature yet.
But you have a party. Instead of having a party of
four, you have a party of eight.And you can swap people in
during the battle as you need. That is a huge, huge.
Thing there are over there are over 30 characters you can
recruit. You know they have a

(33:41):
customizable main character. You can make them any of the 8
familiar job classes that are featured in the the the other
prequels to. Tactics like this Why?
Why? Why?
Why what? Why did they make tactics?
Why didn't they make tactics like this?
I, you know, I guess 'cause it was already like at a freaking
diagonal view and it was. The sprites look nice anyway, so

(34:03):
they probably just like let's just do the remaster.
That's what I was expecting, andthen when I should have done it,
that was like I would have. Liked to have seen it more, have
them play around with this the HC2B style for that game.
But they didn't. But this game takes a different
approach. You build a village like you're
doing things for the village. You're going out doing side
quests to recruit more people oryou're doing main quest things

(34:24):
to, you know, to enact your journey of revenge.
There's three different paths you can take in the beginning.
I think that changes the the endboss, kind of like secret Amana
2 style, you know, trials Amana,I should say, you know how, how
who you pick? Well, now the character you pick
in that game determines your last boss, but this you can

(34:45):
choose out of three who's going to be the boss.
And it's just you kind of play the game.
It's more open-ended compared toprevious Octopath Traveler games
because you know another other ones you have like, you know,
you got your eight guys, they have a predetermined story and
you play out their story in any order that you want.
Here you're either building the town, you're going, you know,

(35:07):
through the main story, you're going on a side quest.
I just was when I saw how it opened up, I was like this, it's
going to be special. And yeah, it's got me excited
for it. So it's.
Like another 60. Hours.
Yeah, it's they say it's 80 to 100.
More than what I. Heard, but it's like 30
recruitable characters that's different than any other
Octopath. You just get your eight in the

(35:28):
in the prequels you just get your 8 and that's it.
But this one is like 30 different ones.
You know, you might not be able to recruit everybody.
It depends on it depends on how you play the game.
So it's it's more open-ended andI'm excited for it.
So yeah, OK. It's a lot of hours.
Yep. Bizarre.
Yeah. He played the he played the, you
know, the the demo. It's like the demo.
The demo was dope. I was impressed.
And not just because it was 60 frames, but because it's like,

(35:51):
Oh my. God, we're done with him.
We're done with. All right, Sticks.
Talk about burnout. Revenge, man.
Yeah, but besides playing Ninja Guten 4 and having the power go
out, I went back to one of my favorite games of all time.
I loved this game. I have to.
I have to give flowers to this game every time I talk about it
because no racing and this is Burnout Revenge.

(36:12):
No racing game comes close to this game as far as speed.
Arcade racer. There's so much, it's so fast.
And it's not like like F0 fast, like where you can't control
anything. This is like a need for speed.
Want to go first? I don't know what that game.

(36:32):
Got to go fast. No, it does speed better than
need for speed and I know they came close, but not quite.
I I never really, as much as I love this game, I never really
played like percentage wise through the game.
I always stop and then end up playing it somewhere else and
starting at 0. So I played the hell out of it,

(36:52):
but I don't recall ever beating this game.
So with this playthrough, I was like, all right, I'm going to
try and get golds on everything and like actually progressed
because you know, they have theyhave a thing.
Back in the day they didn't really do this, but like with
mobile games and stuff now they they give you dopamine by giving

(37:13):
you a whole bunch of items and you won this and you won this
and you won this and you like every race in this game.
It's like you got a trophy for this, you got a new car, you got
this, you opened up this and then it's like they did it here.
And this is way before mobile games and all that.
So this is already there. Has that addictive factor.
Let's just smashing the cars in front of you.
Come on, get out of the way. I love the freaking what was

(37:34):
that road rage is. Called road rage is amazing.
I love that smash your competitors off the road.
It's like a fighting game for racing cars.
Get off, get off and you smash them to the walls.
It's. So satisfying when you like just
knock somebody off the track. Plus they have the crashes and
all that so I know there was more after.
Like paradise. People swear by paradise.
Don't know, I don't like paradise.

(37:55):
I don't like it. Either I don't like it at all, I
don't know why the it's a different game.
So it's either this or I play Legends for the PS for the PSP,
which is kind of like this. It's fun.
And what's the third one take? Well, there's there's 123.

(38:17):
Yeah, 3 There's revenge burnout take.
I forgot the name of it, dammit.Takedown.
Takedown, takedown. Is it takedown?
Yeah. But I thought that was 3 was 3
takedown. That's what I'm.
Saying yeah, yeah, three and four, yeah, are like neck and
neck, but the fact that you can crash into the cars and get them
out your way is yeah, is that much more fun.
But yeah, so I'm attempting to actually get through this game

(38:39):
because I need to. And the other game I played
makes me want to play it, man. Yeah, I know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I never played versus, by the
way. It was versus online back in the
day. Really.
Yeah. I never did that.
I didn't. I didn't even know.
That nobody who cared. I didn't even know that they had
that. Really.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got to freak out.

(38:59):
I never messed with it and another game I played.
It's an old school game. Also don't.
Play No. Games I was playing game.
I was playing all this on the the Ayn Thor.
So I was still testing out olderstuff.
That's why I'm still playing some old stuff now.
But guitar room man, guitar man,guitar man, I was like, I

(39:21):
haven't played this game in a very, very long time.
This is the stage where I I never passed.
I never passed the stage. I passed the stage, I just.
Never passed the stage. This is where I stopped playing.
The third stage. Wow, this is where I stopped
playing this game. Fun though.
They don't make games like this anymore, at least not in
America. This is definitely Japanese is
how. This is what Japanese games used
to be like. It's a rhythm game.

(39:42):
It is a rhythm game, yeah. And it's not like a beat a beat
mighty game or. Whatever.
So it's like Guitar Hero or DJ Hero.
Kind of well, you see the quite you see that in the center
that's here you use that the analog to to move it yeah and
you have to hit the buttons that.
Yeah, it's with the analog and the buttons and the coordination
of hit buttons. So this part is kind of like
that, but this part is not. Yeah, but yeah, the stage after

(40:04):
this is impossible. Listen, I don't, I beat this
game back in the day, and there's no way in hell I can do
it now. So this is one of the games
where it's like I, I was awesomeat it.
And I'm older now and my reflexes I guess are slower.
I guess the age. Yeah, that's so because I got to
that, I got to that, I got to the fourth stage.

(40:26):
I was like, there's no, because it was drum and bass, damn, man.
And you got to hit the buttons to drum and bass.
And I'm like, yeah. Yeah, it's fast how and it
changes timing like this time signatures is like so you.
Have to hit the button on. Each so stick so you were like
Turbo and Mario Kart. I remember I remember beating

(40:46):
you, but I remember winning. I mean, listen, if I play it
enough, I'm pretty sure I can get to the just I just jump back
into it. So there's no way I was going to
do it right away. Even back in the day, I could
have beat this stage. Yeah, yeah.
I don't know the fact that you beat this.
Back then I'm like, damn, no, that's the first time I got past
first two stages. I.

(41:06):
Couldn't do, I don't know, of course, always stopped in this
stage because of that fucking part.
The the drum and bass part would.
Yeah, mad shit. Like the stage after me, it's so
much fun. I gotta pass it.
Really. Yes.
It's one of the best songs in the game.
Never. Even fuck is it like.
No. It's not hard to pass.
But if that's a full playthrough, if you skip to the

(41:28):
next stage real quick just to show them what the buttons look
like. I got to see.
I got to see. I've never seen no.
Yeah, on there. If it skips past this stage, the
next one with the stupid whale chasing you, there's a whale,
Yeah, or whatever someone's chasing you.
Stage. Yeah, right here.
This one. What?
So once you see the buttons, you're going to be like, OK, I
understand now, OK. Flying out.

(41:49):
Oh my God. Stupid and it gets way worse.
Oh my God, flying. Oh, it gets.
Way worse and I'm like I. Peeped this back in the day you
have. To hit like you.
Just have to know the song. You're right, yeah.
And you have to pay attention tothe freaking buttons.
That's mad easy. I could do that, and I'm gonna.
Wow, I'm sure someone thinks it's mad easy.
Yeah. Oh yeah.
Some misses there, yeah. And then once you miss a bunch
and rolls like the. Game yeah, yeah, no, the

(42:10):
rhythm's off once you do that once you get thrown off you
can't you can't throw 2 and I got.
Pretty far out. I was like, alright, I'm
getting. Oh no.
Oh no dude, that is the worst thing chasing you.
What is that? But here that's.
A shark. Hammerhead shark.
And The thing is, it's like you,when you're playing this shit,
you just blur out all the background.
Yeah, you can't. You can't.
You can't focus on any of that shit.
So playing it on a portable, maybe that's probably why I

(42:32):
wasn't doing it right, because maybe on a PlayStation
controller, maybe it's a little better, maybe, but it's on the
PSP also. Yeah, that's stupid.
That's why that's. Yeah, no, this game is stupid.
Turn that shit off. Turn that game off Turn.
That game off. It is a available guitar.
Roman Lives was on the PSPI. Think there was a delay in the
buttons on that one. It wasn't quite the same as the

(42:53):
PlayStation one. Yeah, same with same with
Parappa really. There was a delay on the on the
PSP 1. I think an update might have
fixed it, but it's it was a little off.
So that's why Stage 4 and Parappa was almost ridiculously
impossible. Also, that's the break 8 tracks.
Dude the next stage is like maracas and stuff.

(43:13):
Like it is a dope song. It's one of the best songs in
the game. What's this one here?
Oh, that's that's the end of thethat's after the the the shark
chases you. I think that's the end of that
stage. Yeah.
What the hell, dude? I'm not.
Playing Kaiju? What the hell dude, I'm not.
Playing. I just remembered this part of
the stage. I'm not playing this Oh, look,
I'm chasing you. Wait, let.
Me see the fuck is chasing him Oh so yeah the OK so.
This part is easier. Though Oh no, they start out.

(43:35):
That's the thing about this game.
This shit starts easy and then it just throws some bullshit at
you. You're like, wait, what the
fuck? Yeah.
That's drugs. Every stage starts mad easy and
you're like, oh, I got this drugs.
If you like wearing the games atall and haven't played this
though, and you like Japanese games, this is definitely.
It's even fun to watch though, yeah, so watch.
If your game isn't over in seconds, yeah.
Well. This game over.

(43:59):
Yeah, I just remember when you when you hit the wrong note or
hit the wrong button, it's like that's the sound of.
I can't imagine beating the stage.
I'm done. What'd you?
No, that was it. I won't be.
Playing because I won't be playing that right going back to
Ninja Gaiden, damn it. Yeah, man, now.
You're not. You ended off the the segment,
man. There you go.
That's all we played y'all. All righty.

(44:22):
That is all we played and. I'll be street fight A2.
Oh, yeah, I want to get these get these shots down before the
next segment real quick, you know?
You. Know what we could do that while
we do the next segment. Drink responsibly.

Digital thing and someone, I think it was Hove who recognized
what I was saying it. Was a double dragon.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Shout the Hove.
Shout the Hove. Man.
Bobby Digital. Digital.
No. I love this game, man.
This game's a. Shit, yeah, this game's.
Like the match or? The metrics.

(45:26):
The matches the. This is like the gun version of
like Cortana 0. Yeah, and Max Payne.
Yeah, how about I say it's like a size scroll of Max Payne?
Size scroll of Max Payne is probably more accurate and a
pretty dope soundtrack is freaking soundtrack is fire
fire. I gotta actually look it up
again because I remember it being so intense and awesome.
I would give this another playthrough.
This was a lot of fun. I know just just watching this

(45:47):
is like this is probably like 5 bucks or something now right?
That's probably cheapest. How many hours is this game?
Quick, it's like you could, you could probably beat it in one
one place. Yeah, I like games like that
though, you know, quickly. Quick, quick throw with the
Pedro. And the story I remember it was
nonsensical, but it's and then it got like deep at the end,
like what what is what's this isactually has meaning?

(46:08):
I thought a dude was like tripping on drugs.
He's searching for his friend, which is a banana.
And the boss is Donkey Kong, not?
Imagine. Oh man, we'll crossover.
Yeah, I remember the story was freaking wild and at one stage
everybody knows I don't want to spoil.
It I do caught every bullet. There's a stage in this game

(46:28):
that you're just like, what? Yeah, no, there's a lot of
drugs, a lot of drugs. What drugs are they on this
shit? But it's awesome, man.
This is such a great fun time man.
Let's still say mystery meat. I forgot how.
How did we discover this game? Was it when we did indie game?
You got me into it? It was.
I think we saw this on. You told me about it.
I think we saw this on. Indie game showcase or whatever.

(46:50):
Yeah, yeah. When we had that, when we were
watching the trailers, I remember just a lot of gems on
those shits as I remember seeingthis and I was like, oh, this
looks freaky. That's the one thing I miss
about this show is like, I'm missing out on some indie games.
Probably because I have to find out like late, late, like a year
after they're they're they pop out.
But this one? You play Nintendo in their
freaking dog store. That store?

(47:11):
You mean there's smut store in the in the abyss?
I have to go through like fucking 5 pages of smut to get
to something. Aflong.
The way it's Speaking of Nintendo, the E shop is the new
E shop. Does it have like a way to to
like bookmark? It's better.
It's a better shop, yeah. OK, great.
Way better it. Instantly loads.
Oh, so you put it up and it's there.

(47:32):
You. Press the wait and instantly go.
This goes pop. It's there.
You don't have to go. That's no, you don't get that
you don't get that they. Fixed it.
Even when they had the Mario icon, it slowed down the entire
system. It slowed everything down and it
was an 8 bit version of him. One thing at school they have a
section called for you. So if your friends are playing
something, it'll it'll show you what your friends are playing,
you know, and it'll just flash like a preview or something like

(47:53):
that give you recommendations that way that's cool.
It's more friendly. I like, I like this Dave, like.
Somebody got paid for it. Yeah, check out my friend Pedro,
the official Level 857 Seal of Quality.
Yeah, Pedro. Holla.
Holla oh for Pedro. Hell, for Pedro, it's a
different. Zip with.
Yeah, I know. That is a case.

(48:19):

This is what that is. I didn't see this trailer.
From what they say it's a rogue like third person.
Oh yes, this looks like. Oh, I think I saw some of this.
This looks pretty. Anything Eternal?
It looks like a lot like Eternal, almost to like the
copy. Copy Is it rogue light?

(52:41):
It's wrong. Like yes it's a Co-op when you
die you come back. Like it's the same premise.
Did they say Co-op? I didn't hear shit about.
Because I like the mechanics. They look solid.
It looks like fun game. It looks like single.
It look like vanquishing this for a second and then it look
like you're, you know, third person.
Oh, what the you know what it looks like?
It looks like it's going to be on every other system.

(53:05):

Xbox. Did I say something wrong Xbox?
Did I say something incorrect? The next game.
Here. Next trailer Here is a crow
swarm. Crow swarm, Yeah.
That's the tongues with twisted anyone fucking speak when I.
Figured this looked like as you can see.
Oh, I've seen this before. This was.
They showed this a while ago, right Crow?

(54:30):
Swarm. This is the first time I saw it
that they may have. Who knows?
Those get announced every which way.
I mean it looks fucking beautiful.
Another Metroidvania. It's a metroidvania, but it's
basically a Hollow Knight. Definitely inspired by Hollow.
Knight it looks nice, but you know the difficulty through the
roof and I will not play this. So you gotta add precise for my.
For my own sanity, was that a gun?

(54:50):
That looks good though, and it looks beautiful it.
Looks like if you like Hollow Knight, you're gonna like.
This oh wow Oh my God look at that.
I am a sucker for like games. Spikes on the floor that look
like like hand drawn beautiful shinobi ish.
Not animations. Like, I love that look.
It's just. It's just.
Fucking, you know, it looks like, it looks like if they made

(55:12):
Spy versus SPY and Action, Yeah,yeah, yeah.
Yes, it doesn't look like a Metro spy versus spy.
Yes it does. My only question is, is this
going to run on the Nintendo Switch?
Wow. Yes, switch, I believe so.
Switch to switch to I I figured.Just switch the the effects of
the moves. Look, the effects of the moves
look incredible. No, it looks like.
The lighting and shit looks looks smooth, Yeah, beautiful.

(55:34):
Looks beautiful. Looks gonna look great on my
PlayStation. I mean, it's not like you got
rid of your Xbox. Yeah.
But. Everything else.
Yeah, they should have had shockat the showcase.
Say that it's gonna look great on my PlayStation with a
straight ass face. But it won't be on Game Pass on

(55:54):
your. PlayStation, they did an update,
I think of Dave the diver. Dave the diver will be available
and there's a date in the jungle.
Y'all haven't rocked with that right?
No I thought I thought either Alor Jay would rock.
I play, I only play like 5 minutes just to just to test it
out. Because I know I need time with.

(56:15):
It OK. And it's like a casual game that
you build with and like you'll get addicted.
I know, right? But you have to have the time to
actually play it. OK.
And I know the premise and I understand it, but in the jungle
now, you know, they're really doing it was.
Crazy fucker just got murdered. But that's coming out soon,

(56:35):
David. Diver.
Early, early 2026, Yeah. So if you like David Diver, it's
more and it crosses over with everything.
Wow, look at that thing as well.Explode.
Yo man, so weird man. Looks good though.
Like I like the I like, I reallydo like the the the graphic
style. It's pretty cool.
It's like pixel pixel, but it's 3D also.
Yeah, it's really kind of cool. I mean, if you liked Echo the

(56:55):
Dolphin back in the day, I guessyou can.
Hey, let's step it up with this.Echo is cool, less processing.
This looks definitely better than Echo the Dolphin though.
Speaking of EE generation two, look at this was the other
trailer. Look at this Segway is.
Flawless, look at that. What game is this?
One. I don't know what type of game
this is though it. Says let's bring back the first
game. Spooky, supernatural setting.

(57:17):
What type of game? 90s action. 80s and 90s action.
Shit, it's fucking graphic. Jesus Christ, dude.
All right, all right, we got eaten.
It's a role player. Oh.
It's a hard. Card role player.
That might be you know what, because I I was won over by
sleigh the Spire because I'm not.
I was never in the card baseballRPGs and that that was addictive

(57:37):
as shit and that might this might.
I dude it's dead. This actually kind of intrigues
me. Marvel Midnight Suns had a great
card system, so it could be fun.Yeah.
So you guys? Say it could be fun.
Mass produced in the building. Kind of run me over man.
The card produced. At first I was like Nah man, I
want to play card game man same.Here.
But once you see how they work, it's like, OK.

(57:58):
It's like an RPG. It looks nice just with cards.
Yep, it really looks good. Like definitely got an art
style. The the style is really it draws
you in because I don't really see that style too much.
That's like Arcane, dude. You can make you can make
Transformers like this bitch, right?
You could really make Transformers like that.
This art style. Yeah, hell.
Yeah, with cards. No stop don't put that in the
universe cards. They put Transformers enough

(58:21):
Transformers card game and they cancelled the more players shit.
I think a mobile 1 was like a card game.
It was something strategy. I'm sure it was.
I'm sure it. Was no.
The one on the phone is a tower defense.
And there was a strategy one on the switch.
It was, I think, Turbo Player. I played some of it on the Xbox,
it's actually not bad. I figured it wouldn't be bad,
but it. I like what I played.

(58:43):
The other trailer they showed was erosion.
And this, they said, was a isometric action game set in the
stylish Western. This is very stylish man.
I like theme voxel world. I love the pixel art pixels for.
You. Yeah.
I love the pixel art it looks like in television.
It's 3D pixel that that that what was with the latest?
That walking cycle is crazy, butit's 3D pixels.
Dude this reminds me of. Pretty cool though that that.

(59:04):
Puzzle game that I like played this I played the demo.
It was like a puzzle game that was like this and the the but it
looked better than this but. They call.
They call it boxes. Boxes.
The pixels that look like that, like Minecraft.
CF. But no, it looks better than
Minecraft. No, it's better.
Than Minecraft, yeah, yeah, it'sboxes.
This is the same art style of a game that when Turbo gave me for
Christmas years ago. What was it?

(59:26):
They gave me a gift card for their E shop and I bought a game
called What the fuck? Is it the the Taurus?
Taurus, yes. And that game, it's like that
too. It was awesome.
Yeah. What are they listening to?
Because they're all bump into that shit.
They're like. It's a western though.
It's funny. Man, Joe, that's that's
intriguing, man. Listen, I fuck with pixels.
No, look at that. They do so many like cool things

(59:48):
with with pixel art and I I really fucking enjoy.
It this has it looks like a Digital Devolver or a Devolver
Digital. Game.
Yeah, and it looks like some, you know, some weird Boss
Battery bullshit going on. Happening with them leg.
Them leg? No, it's all about the legs.
Happening with them. Skinny ass legs.
They got the sand worm there. Nah, this game looks dope.
Interesting, interesting. I like the style.

(01:00:10):
And then of course, when this comes out, the Xbox is not gonna
say shit about it. They're not gonna down.
It's gonna. Be on Game Pass so we could try
it if you have it. If you got Game Pass by then I
don't know this. Will be on the Nintendo Switch,
no? Yeah, by then it'll be on
everything. It's on Xbox.
Oh, it's an exclusive. LPC all.
Right, next one is funny. Hold.
On a second. Is it I'll that's Trump's game

(01:00:33):
that he will play the next one Isee here.
I don't know if you have this onhere, but I went by that article
Hitman World of Assassination. Yep, with.
Guess what it is, though. Eminem crossover.
I saw some of that, yeah. Weird.
Funny. Eminem versus Slim Shady you.
Have to kill Slim. Shady.
Yep. That's hilarious.
That's hilarious. And he, Eminem was into it.

(01:00:55):
He's all he's voicing it. Yeah, I think Dashie stream
this. Right.
Yeah, he played. It does he rap in the game, No.
There's it's just music turned off.
You had turn off music? Yeah, there's music.
I think it's yeah, yeah. That's funny, man.
Maybe. Doing some weird crossover.
Listen, I need to own Hitman because there's some funny shit.
Dude, there's so much funny shitI am missing out.

(01:01:19):
Is the part three-part 3 right? You want to remember those they
had there? There's so many, the way they
they label them, it's. Hard to even sell.
But it's like name something. But there's something else after
it's confusing. It's world of assassination.
And that's the game. It's so much, It's so much.
I got to look it up, I guaranteeby.
The time they made it so it's hard to pick up.
Right. She just named it 3 and call it

(01:01:40):
a day. Seriously.
DLC for this but I guess. The most fun I've had in the
game is Hitman when I play. I think it was Part 2.
Whatever. And we saw some clips that
stupid. Oh clips are insane.
You know, cafe, Cafe, I said. I'm more bitter than a lion.
You're not wrong, my guy. You're not.
Wrong. Got that stank face on.
But yes man, Mom's spaghetti does make an appearance tonight.

(01:02:00):
It does, Yep. It's in the background.
I saw that you said it's on the wall.
You skip the next I don't know about.
This one, yeah, I'll say it realquick.
It's the mound Omen of Cthulhu. Yeah, I don't know.
And I don't know what the hell is it a Cthulhu?
I hope this is a This is a trailer for.
Us in any game that has that title is usually a first person
game and I. But you know, You know what?

(01:02:22):
I'm surprised. This is the only thing I've seen
first person so far. Is I don't know if it's first
person. I don't even know what this is.
I mean, you know, I could tell it is.
Oh, look at that. Totally.
Yeah, that's first person. Get that shit off.
Whenever I see first person I get.
I turn this, I turn this shit off as soon as possible.
I'm tired of first persons. Man, usually it just gets it.
It's just out of out of my head right away.

(01:02:42):
I mean, it doesn't look bad. No, I mean listen, it looks
fine. Look bad do.
People love first person. That's awesome.
That's great. I just don't love I, I can't
stand them. There's a whole generation that
loves. Yeah, that prefers to play.
They would. Rather play this in first
person. That's great.
Anything. There's only certain games I can
play. And it looks fine that work.
Yeah, it doesn't look bad, it looks fine, but get that shit
out of my face. Looks fine all.
Right, we mentioned it. All right.

(01:03:05):
We mentioned we we put it up on that.
Yeah, he's all right. We mentioned we had enough.
If you are interested in those titles, let us know.
Yeah, that's why you are. Yeah, that's maybe we'll try.
It out. That is hilarious.
It does look bad. It's actually pretty good.
All right, I've had enough. The next game trailer was Raji

(01:03:27):
Kylie Yuga. There you go, Said it right,
better than I. Was trying to read that.
Damn it, I'd rather have JC Oh. Word Kalioga.
Wow, Yuga. Kalioga.
Or maybe Kaliga shit. No.
No, I said it wrong purpose so Idon't know what type of game
this is. This third person in here, but

(01:03:49):
as far as the trailer, it didn'tshow me anything.
Pretty much anything. They got to stop doing.
That in the trailers, man, I didn't know what I was looking
at. You know, I get, I get companies
being excited to like show something, but at the end of the
day, when you show nothing, you got to show something.
You're hurting. You're hurting it more than
anything. Showing the look they're
showing, like the artistic. Style of the world and stuff.
But no one's going to get hyped,right?

(01:04:11):
I'll tell. You apparently this is a sequel
so I don't know what what the original was.
The only time people get hyped for like something that's kind
of like still in the oven and it's not ready is if it's like a
title that you know about, Right?
Right. Like, oh shit, is that a
Thundercats logo? You know, you know what I'm
saying? Like a.
Teaser A teaser for something you are, you know you have some.
Knowledge. Oh, is that the Triforce?

(01:04:31):
Oh shit, you know. Like I said, if this is a
sequel, someone knows about the first one and they got hyped for
this. If.
Anybody saw the zombie monkey things?
Yeah, I don't know what's. Going on, if anyone out there
knows what this is, man, let us know, yeah.
You play as Raji and a younger brother, Dash.
No, he's that's what it is, Dualprotagonist.
So it's interesting. Could be Co-op, it could be but

(01:04:53):
I don't know. We don't know anything because
the trailer didn't say shit. I'm assuming the first game was
called Raji. I just want to see.
I'm assuming I just want to see more.
I'll footage, man. Speaking of I'll footage, the
next game shows the. Footage.
Footage. It's called Reanimal.
Reanimal, Rihanna. They need to like link up

(01:05:17):
Rihanna and do a Rihanna. So this is by the people who
made what's the thing that came out the little nightmares.
These are people who made the 1st 2 little nightmares.
They didn't make Part 3. They did this instead.
Co-op. This is Co-op and it looks way
more freaky than Little Nightmare.
I I, I volunteer chalk and Jay to play it.

(01:05:39):
Yeah, let's. Dope, I would play this in a
second. Done.
That's what it has like there you.
Go guys like that inside look and like it looks ridiculous.
Oh shit, I like what it looks like.
Chalk said he's good. Nah, yeah, chalk's down for it.
Yeah, you're down now this. Is scary with little people
running, no. Oh, look at that, we got little
people running. Look at that, we got a super
chat. Chalk, Chalk.

(01:05:59):
Super Champion Chuck to play this.
Yo, that'd be hilarious, $100. He's playing it all right.
I guess he is. He.
Has to play it, but now? I like the trailer.
I, I I'm definitely going. To play February 13th.
Wow, that's. Yeah, and I should still have
game Pass when it comes out so you'll be able to see at least
one person. Wow, don't play games.

(01:06:20):
I'm playing this one. If you play, don't play.
The next game, Roadside Research, they had this, many
games aren't. You yeah, it is a bunch, but
this one was like. Yo, what just happened?
What am I looking at? So you I think you run a store.
This is like Rory Kenshin, fucking dashy shit.
Right. Oh really?
It's an endy title. Looks like it, but you're aliens

(01:06:43):
in disguise. You have some other disguise.
They're inhuman. They're now to be human.
You know, the the disguise is just a freaking piece of paper.
That is not a good disguise. That's hilarious.
Though I think. I think you run a store though
and you have to sell stuff to the humans and act like you're a
human. That's hilarious.
That's actually funny, man. So that's the friend in black.
Yo, you blasted the shit out of you.
That premise is pretty funny. The fact that those are humans

(01:07:05):
is hilarious. It's like you can't tell by the
blue skin, the faces, they have a face.
That's. Funny.
Who are you fooling? I'm interested to watch people
play it online. Yeah, I'm.
Definitely. Look at the freaking nonsense,
nonsense. Funny.
Humor. I appreciate the originality of

(01:07:26):
the concept though. Suspicious.
The next y'all can't see that the next trailer Tides of
Annihilation. So this was the highlight of the
night of combat. This looked amazing and I'm
definitely buying this. Clarence Skewer playing.
Her. She's playing the voice.
Oh, for real? Yeah.
Who lune? No, no, no.

(01:07:47):
Mayo. Mayo, Mayo, Mayo.
Really, Mayo? That's her.
Mayonnaise. Sorry.
Come on. Sorry.
Come on. Is.
Playing the Voice. Oh shit, so it's going to win
awards for voice acting, You know that?
So this is like real time fighting though Looks like God
of War. It's spin off kind of like Final
Fantasy 16, so it's going to be like.

(01:08:09):
Okay. Devil May cry Ish Devil.
May cry. But this, what they show, was
very cinematic. There's a lot of stuff going on.
It's like set piece. It's so funny that we're so far
into like, you know, the way games look, It's like, all
right, how does it play? Cuz I have, yeah.
You don't know anymore. Right.
Well, I played, they showed it before, they showed another
another thing before, and they showed a lot of the regular

(01:08:30):
gameplay and it plays a lot likeFinal Fantasy 16 Wow, but
hopefully with less role-playing.
Man, it looks like it. That was the worst part of Final
Fantasy 16 was the the weird. You might as well just let it be
real. Time, but this looks like more
action and this they went they went crazy with what they're
doing here. It looks like a very very, very
very advanced Tales game. Damn.
Right. I mean.

(01:08:50):
Because, you know, like Tales has that space.
Yo look at this. They're doing a lot.
Well, you can do combos and stuff.
Yeah, you saw that in the different worlds.
Crossing the different worlds, that's insane.
That's freaking crazy. That's drugs.
They showed a regular boss fightthough, and it's it's looks
this, I'm playing, this, I'm definitely playing.
This I'm gonna have a seizure. Is there a demo on because
they're showing a lot of gameplay for.
This. No, no.
Oh, it wouldn't surprise me if there was going to be a demo.

(01:09:13):
Right, This has to be some sort of Co-op though.
I love the animation. That's ridiculous.
No, look at that. I.
Highly doubt this. Like online Co.
OP no, no, wow, no. You're calling you're switching
between these characters helpingyou kind of like your game when
you switch between the shit the astral chain, how kind of, but
who knows what it's going to be like that looks pretty crazy.

something like. Stupid people should not.
There should be a survey right? To see if you're stupid or not
and like oh God and you should be banned from saying stupid.

(01:09:57):
Shit, yes they they, they just nitpick.
And that's like, and that's 70% of the people comments.
So let's get rid of 70% of theseidiots.

No, you never played. You never played anything like
this before. 3D What the heck? Yes, it's like a dungeon

(01:14:14):

Good and role player with their graphics.

Oh my God. Exactly.
It's like a casino gives you thesatisfaction.

Actually, I tried to play it again.
I sucked. The second topic?
Vampire Survivors. Well, we gotta get a four
player. On yeah, we do need a. 4 player
on there. But that was just trying to play
it quick. And I was like, dude, I, I was
so much better. Yo, Bizarre said.
But you're the final boss, Chuck.
Get a final boss. If Chuck's really the final
boss, he wouldn't be scared of that game.
Final boss, don't act. Like me, bosses are scared of
shit. Like yes, they're not the final

(01:15:01):
bones. Final boss gonna shot the heads
off all of them. Vampire Survivors.
Does that have a Castlevania crossover?
Yes it does. It does.
Right, that does. OK, that looked awesome.
Kept like I'm intrigued. It's fun as hell.
How are you, man? And I would.
Play we got. One more we got.
One the the showcase they they they hit a home run with the
last trailer. Which is the stand out also.
Yeah, they they ended it off big.

(01:15:22):
What was it, a zoo punk? Zoo Punk, I know this.
Is one of the few trailers I sawand it's Co-op.
It's three player call. It's three player, it's on, it's
2 characters. It's online Co-op.
It is wow online Co-op wow. Cuz a lot of a lot of the fights
I saw him I'm like the other characters are around fighting.
I'm like what the fuck how is this not Co-op and it said
online Co-op. This looks impressive.
I would fuck with. This.

(01:15:42):
I like the art, the graphics of this.
It's cool. You're the main character,
Yosaki Ojimbo. Yeah, absolutely.
So this is a sequel or is it a prequel?
I don't it is. It's the same character from the
game, Fist forged and shadow torch.
Really. Remember the little rabbit?
The side scrolling? You got a big ass arm.
I played that I. It looked dope too though.

(01:16:04):
I played that like 2 years ago. I got to run.
Out about two or three. Years ago, yeah.
And. But that game was dope.
I did have a side scroller. I forgot about it though.
Man I completely forgot about the game.
Apparently that's the same character.
That's. Cool I would I remember the
Bunny in that game and is the same I would rock.
With he had like a rough voice too.
I remember it was like a like a gravelly.

(01:16:25):
Like, I like what this looked like because I was like, I was
like a Bunny. Who cares about it?
But oh. But that's all right.
That looks solid. That's interesting though, to go
from a side. Scroll to Jimbo and.
They went to a crazy look at the.
They weren't. They went from a side scrolling
in the first game to this. Yeah, crazy.
Look at how polished. That's a huge jump.
This looks like totally cry had a totally lifestyle.

(01:16:46):
It sounds like this. Gives me gives me a Jedi
Survivor vibes with the environment.
But he doesn't have the the fists.
He doesn't have the the robotic fists.
No, nothing more. Not.
Not yet, at least. I wonder.
I got to. Go back to Pequel or it's a
sequel, I'm not sure. I got to go back to that.
I have it. I have it on Epic.
I got it, Epic story. So I don't need to go on Epic
story. I got it on what was it PS4?

(01:17:09):
Look at that. And then he called in his boys.
I was like, girl, what? If it's if it's campaign Co-op
that's going on the channel that's going, oh, what the heck.
This I'm not sure, Brodie. Said it looks like the the Bunny
from the Michael Jackson video Speed Demon.
But it did say it reminded him of that character and the
Moonwalker and the Moonwalker, which that's not the other Bunny

(01:17:29):
like that, right? Look at the.
Lips, man. The Bunny lips.
He has to get his Easter eggs. Now imagine if that's the main
story. Oh my God.
Those jewels they used to take? Easter eggs.
Now he's dope though. I like it a lot actually.
That's good. You know how get?
That bad sign? You know how they made like God

(01:17:51):
of War, like extra chunky? Like the way that's what it
looks like they did with this. I got, I got a yo.
That ship was not graceful. No, that shit just fell down.
Yeah, so there it is. It's not like you know the the
the the X-Men when they fly in or whatever.
No, that motherfucker just crashed down.
Other characters are funny too. It kind of has a Marvel vibe
too, with the like guards of gasbecause that's like.
The squirrel. The squirrel.

(01:18:11):
Kind of like the squirrels, the raccoon, and.
The Rocket just the big dog, right with the.
And that's the big. The rhino, The big.
Chainsaw Sword? That's crazy.
That's. Crazy from chalks like that's
my. Gears of War.
That's the Gears of War character.
That's awesome man. Mad meat.
Dude, this is all chalk. This is all you?
Yeah. You can't even deny that this.
Yeah, this is all you. I'll play.
This all day. The characters are.

(01:18:32):
Scary. Total chaos.
We got you. Yeah.
Yeah. We're playing.
We'll join you. Yeah, we'll join you only if you
play the other game. That was a zoo punk.
What a way to end the showcase though.
Man, that's a that's a crazy game.
It was a very nice. Solid Xbox, not bad.
Man that fish glitched on him and he can't get the platinum.
Oh damn. Wow, that's fucked up.
But it was dope though, right? I got to play that maybe before

(01:18:54):
this comes up. They didn't have a release on
that though, right? No.
Didn't say anything next year I think but the other game is out
now. Yeah, there is.
A I'm getting that, Mark my words, I'm buying it.
I want to see. I really know I wanna play it
myself. I wanna see it.
So I'm definitely buying it. If any please someone stream it,
I would like to watch it. I'm definitely gonna buy it.
So for what it's worth, that showcase is pretty much one of

(01:19:14):
the best ones this year. It was good, Yeah.
That was good. Good, solid video games.
They're all new. They all look different.
No farming Sims. I know, yeah.
And like maybe one or two first persons.
Xbox has been getting a lot of hate lately, but it's nice to
give them their flowers, man. Yeah, that was a good showcase,
it looks. Like they showed hey so all.
Jokes aside, that does that was a pretty good showcase.

(01:19:35):
Yeah, they barely had anything. I was like maybe two titles.
I was like and. They look polished and even even
the titles like the first persongame or whatever, even that it
was like it didn't look bad at all.
Yeah, look. That was I've seen.
I don't think they put it on this but there was another
trailer for like an Elder Scrolls looking first person
game that looked too good, but it also had like a suede motion
camera that made me sick so didn't want to, I didn't want to

(01:19:58):
mess with that. But if you like Elder Scrolls,
there's the game coming out that's like that.
I'm just disappointed there was no perfect dark.
I wonder what? It's gone.
It's gone all right. There is no perfect.
Dark. Let's go wait for style to get
back so we can get into the maintopic.
Actually, let me switch. The main topic, yeah, definitely
got to mess with that. Game.
We gotta had it, which was crazy.

(01:20:19):
Yeah, no, same here. When you said that it was, it
was tied to that. It's a seagull.
I'm like, wait a minute, that's.Because I know the characters
look the sounds like but it's the same people who make the
game. And I like the combat for the
side. The first one, the combat was
pretty fun. Look dope, now ask me that
bottle of Teramana please. Oh.
No. Are you ready to drink after the
Xbox? Come on man.
You need you need a drink after that showcase man.

(01:20:41):
Come on, it's still alive. We just showed you.
No need for that. Oh no, Anytime you talk about
Xbox, chocolate needs to take a sip.
He's like. It became an alcoholic because
of Xbox. Actually, we should probably do
our mid roll. What's that?
Oh yeah, actually, yeah. Let's take a break because I

(01:21:01):
have to use the bathroom too. Man you.
Could do your ad. Read Oh yes, I love it.
I love it. They they exactly.
That's what we make the mother freaking big keep.
The bottle over there, man. Hell yeah.
You could use it. Absolutely.
Yo guys, you guys know what it is.

Game Pass. Yeah, I, I don't have, I have

(01:22:06):
the 999. But you know what, it is so
limited. I might bump it up to the 1499
because I was playing Halo Wars the first one and I was just
starting to gel and click with the, you know.
What I was I, I started that game and I was just like, I just
could not stay in in like into it.
You couldn't say anything. Well, it's because you're used
to the action and shooting somebody in the face.

(01:22:28):
Yeah, yeah. It was like, it's it's
intriguing. It's pretty cool.
I want to go, I want to play it longer.
But then when X, when Microsoft announced the $30.00, I was
like, oh, hell no, that's not happened.
I bumped it down. I still had access to Halo Wars
2, but not Halo Wars 1. So I'm like, what kind of
nonsense shit is that? So it seems like most OK, most

(01:22:49):
of my collection that I have downloaded already I can access
on the 1499, so I might go back to that, but I'm not paying No
30. That's just crazy.

(01:24:14):
Most anticipated game. OK, that's a good one.
You want to start with that? Yeah, let's do it.
Let's go. What's the name?
Let's see what we got here. There's a lot of good ones,
actually. Yeah.
Double O 7, First Light, The Grand Theft Auto 6, Wolverine,
Resident Evil, Requiem and The Witcher.
All right, what I think is I'll start.

(01:24:35):
What I think is going to win will be Grand Theft.
I forgot that was a game actually.
My what? What for me, Wolverine?
Easily. I'm dying for that Wolverine.
Game. I agree.
Yeah, I agree, but I think GrandTheft will get it.
Yeah, I think Grand Theft Auto 6is going to get it, but I I out
of that list there, I'd I'd rather play Wolverine first out
of anything, yeah. I'm excited for actually all of

(01:24:56):
those games besides Witcher because I didn't play Witcher.
And it's probably dope I. Don't know it's going to be.
You know it's going to be dope. I just don't really.
Have. If I got into three, I would be
like, yeah, I need it. I.
Don't have the connection? I'm excited for 007.
Yeah, it's gonna be. Fun.
I'm definitely excited for GrandTheft when it actually comes out
cuz I'm gonna play it. I'll play it in 27.
I'll play it in three years. And 2027.

(01:25:16):
Wolverine yes, I am excited to play that cuz I know it's gonna
be it's it's insomniac, it's it's gonna be dope.
So, and obviously Resident Evil reckon they need to put out the
next trailer. No, I need to see more.
I need to see more. I can't.
I can't even comment on 9 how I see more.
That is third personal first that that that's how it's going.
To make or break it, man. That's my interest.

(01:25:37):
So they didn't just kill it withthe first personal.
Game. But since I don't think Grand
Theft is a game yet, I. Don't think it's a game.
I would probably vote Wolverine out of those.
For yourself or you think it's going to win?
I think Grand Theft is going to win.
Yeah, that was like 200 million.Yeah, the.

(01:25:58):
Prediction is who? Who's going to win?
Who do you think is going to winthe category?
OK, so we're going by that. Yeah, I would vote for
Wolverine, but Grand Theft is going to win.
Right. Yeah.
Because there's no, there's nothing more anticipated than
that game. Always.
Do you agree? Yeah.
Yeah. You guys agree?
I agree also, I agree. What what do you want?
What do you, what are what are you guys anticipating?

(01:26:18):
What are you mostly me? Personally, what?
Would you pick what's your 4? I actually don't know anything
about. That I mean I'm pretty much
everything but the same with sticks.
Everything but the Witcher pretty much like the double O 7
looks dope. Freaking Grand Theft.
No, if you had to pick one game that algae is participating.
You had to vote anticipating if you had to vote right now.

(01:26:39):
For you, just you. Me personally, I would say
Resident Evil just because of curiosity.
I'm curious to know more about the game.
Definitely it's going to get delayed again, so not coming for
this year. Chuck, what about you?
No, I I definitely want to play Wolverine and then, you know,
Grand Theft Auto then double O 7definitely skipping Resident
Evil. So what about you, Kev?

(01:27:02):
Wolverine, Wolverine. I mean, we played Spider Man,
like, come on, you know, so you see.
That we know how good that game is going, we know.
What it's going? To be Wolverine's my favorite
superhero. So that's that's my game.
I think Batman, yeah. Yeah, no, he's my favorite
superhero. Yeah, OK.
And I love Batman, but I don't use Batman like in in, you know,
only if there's a Batman. I don't understand the best

(01:27:23):
adaptation. What?
What the? Heck.
Oh, TVTV. TV shows, OK, Yeah.
So we want to do that one. Let's see what's in there.
We got Minecraft movie, Devil May Cry, Splinter Cell Death,
watch The Last of Us season 2 and Until Dawn.
Boo Boo. I didn't.
I didn't see it yet. I didn't see that.

(01:27:44):
I didn't watch Splinter Cell, soI.
Didn't know that was a thing. Yeah, I didn't know.
It's on Netflix. I thought Devil May Cry was
incredible. I thought Last of Us was
incredible. Wasn't Tomb Raider this year on
Netflix? On Netflix.
Early this year? I think so.
Damn well they put until dawn. I heard Until Dawn was terrible.
It. Was it was real bad?

(01:28:05):
Really. I love Until Dawn the game.
That movie was bad. Oh, when we get to the the tier
list of you know, I, I, I, I wait.
Sonic 3 isn't on this list. Sonic Three got skipped.
Oh, that is wild. You know this is the Game
Awards. You know, they, they, they will
always make someone mad. That is what they do.
Wild, you know that. I think it came out just before

(01:28:27):
the actual voting. Oh OK, So what?
Sonic 3. Yeah.
What do you mean? Didn't it come out like just
before Christmas? No, last year.
Sonic 3 came out earlier this year.
Yeah. Yeah, I was this year.
Really. I gotta look.
It feels like it was last year. It definitely wasn't last.
Year Sonic through is great. Sonic through it should be there
the. Best one out of is the best one
out of the Sonic. It is the best.

(01:28:48):
December 20th, 2024. 20. See, there you go.
Which is bull, because you know before that.
Then it should have came out this.
It should be. This year it should 'cause it
came out after the last Game Awards.
But you know how it is when they.
Have a. They have a weird timing.
When it's in the when it's too close to the end or too close
like in the beginning, they have.
It's a bullshit fucking yeah gap.
Just forget about it. My vote My vote is for Devil May

(01:29:11):
Cry. You want Devil May Cry to win?
What do you think's going to winDevil May Cry?
Last of Us probably, but I want Devil May Cry to win.
You know, I'm a I'm a piggyback on that because I love Last of
Us, right? I really love that show and I
think it's going to win. I won't be mad if it does,
right? But I there's something special
about Devil May Cry. I got to go with that Episode 4,
man. Episode 4 had me the the back

(01:29:32):
story of that chick with the with all music and the silence.
Yeah, no, no worries. Just.
Evanescence. I was like award-winning
episode. I said that was I said that was
a powerful episode and that needs recognition.
So I want Devil May Cry to win. Something about episode fours.
Yo, no, for real with and it's always music.
Yeah, but if Last of Us, obviously I would not be mad.

(01:29:53):
I think they did an amazing job.With Last of Us, yeah.
Regardless of the stupid Internet.
Yeah. I really, I really hate the.
I don't listen to idiots online,man, I listen.
To I enjoyed the last of a season 2 a lot that was.
Awesome, that was good. Yeah.
And I do think that it should win.
Best adaptation probably will. It's probably going to win if

(01:30:13):
I'm just going by. But then again, listen, the
majority of people aren't on theInternet, so I can't go by what
it's not. Me Internet's not real.
But the people looking for me, it's not a real place, so and
the people who didn't watch it, first of all.
So I'm going to win Until Dawn now one. 2nd go in the corner,

(01:30:35):
laugh so hard. I got it.
I got to give it my. I do want to see the Splinter
Cell because I I feel. Left.
I didn't know Splinter Cell the thing.
Download that shit actually. So I'll check that shit.
I want to see it. I gotta see.
That I would say it was on Netflix.
Yeah, it's on Netflix. Oh so.
I wouldn't be mad. I wouldn't be mad if Devil May
Cry 1 because I loved, I loved Devil May Cry.
That was a super surprise. That was I wasn't ready because

(01:30:56):
I was like, Castlevania was dope.
What the hell is Devil May Cry coming out for?
Because I didn't know nothing about it.
They did a great. Job and it started weird.
I was like what is this? I thought it was solid.
It was. No, it was dope, but I didn't
know what was going on. It was like because I didn't
know the storyline of what they were doing.
Right, I think they told the story better in the anime than
they did. In the game.
Well, I mean, the game really didn't have a A.

(01:31:18):
Story. Not really the story.
Not until later the. War didn't really start until
Devil May Cry 3. Yeah, it.
Didn't really. It wasn't really anything.
I was shocked by how good it was.
Me too. So.
Amy Lee Man. I but that being said, I didn't
see Minecraft. I heard stuff Minecraft.
I heard stuff. I hear it's good.
It was OK. Fuck.
Minecraft. I honestly I heard, I heard the

(01:31:39):
kids loved it. Yeah, but I don't know why.
Wow. OK, Did he calm down?
Yeah. But that was also mean quality
stuff that they were going crazyover so dumb and cry or Last of
Us. I think last was probably last
was a probably win all. Right, I agree.
I agree. Either one of those that we have

(01:32:00):
I like. To cry win, though.
Yeah, me too. Until you go that way, OK.
I would like to see. That and I want to watch
Splinter, yeah. I didn't hear enough.
Because I would like to. I didn't even know it was out.
Nobody. Because I need, I need the Devil
May Cry show to get far. Far along enough that they
introduce Nero and they have Nero, Virgil and Dante fighting
side by side. I think the same character.
You know how sick that going to be?
The same. Character.

(01:32:20):
You know. Whatever you broke, it would be
animated. You know it would be.
That's the same character shot. You know it would be better than
that if they fucking release theDevil May Cry in the anime style
of the show. If they were going to redo it,
yeah, like. The guilty gear style.
Oof. Like the show that would be.
Like Kazan, that game is oh, oh oh.
Very crazy. All right, what's the next?

(01:32:42):
Next category, how do we go to the all or view all categories?
There we go. Oh.
Yeah. So what was that?
That was best adaptation. I mean, we'll skip some.
Yeah, Best multiplayer. Do we care about that?
Yes, we do. Yes we do.
Yes, we. Do there we go?
Where's FIFA? No FIFA.

(01:33:02):
All right, so we got Arc Raiders, which I hear good
things about Battlefield 6, which are also very good things
about Elden Ring. Elden Ring.
Night ring. Night ring.
So I was trying to. Peak.
Never heard of that. I've seen it.
And split fiction. Split Fiction.
Split fiction vote Split fictionis getting my vote.
Split fiction. Yeah, Split fiction.
Split Fiction. I haven't played any of these

(01:33:24):
games, no. Offer the strength of your love
for split fiction. How you need to play.
I watched that a lot and I said no, that the fact the fact that
that's nominate. Wait, how was that not nominated
for game of the year? But it's nominated for this
fucking category. Let's get a shit that later
these. Motherfuckers, we're going to
get into it too. That's the last.
Thing multiplayers can't get Game of the year.
They have. But they can't anymore.

(01:33:45):
Not. Anymore.
I well, listen what I think is going to win, which is crazy, I
know. I think Arc Raid is going to
take that. Because it's been hot and.
People are they want that to wingame in here, but it's not
there. But that'll be another snub
because I called this and I got yelled at online for saying it.
I said, how dare you say listen,listen, Claire, I'm scared

(01:34:09):
versus not. I didn't say verse.
I said I said that Split Fictionis going to get snubbed because
of all the games that are comingout this year.
Also, when the time, the time itcame out was February, so it's
like. It was the first game.
So when it comes out earlier in the year, it usually gets
snubbed in the But you know what?
That's called bullshit. Like fucking it's bull.
Stupid. Whatever is running it is

(01:34:29):
bullshit because why is that going to shit on your game?
Because it came out early. Look the.
Thing is to see bias. Yes, that's exactly what it.
Is. But Indiana Jones, they say,
came out very early and it wouldbe shocking to see it still get
remembered. And they remembered that, Yeah.
What the hell? But The thing is, we can see
bias and someone's getting paid.Award shows getting paid are all

(01:34:51):
does. It doesn't matter what the award
show is, it's all paid off. All all all award shows are
bullshit. It's a giant commercial.
Yeah, commercial. For trailers, this is a trailer
commercial. Yeah, with mentions of things
that should get recognition. We just care about the trailers,
right? Exactly.
Because after Unicorn Overlord got screwed and fired, Engage
got fucking screwed. Fuck the awards.

(01:35:12):
No recognition, man. Sir Split Fiction should win
that. That's tragic if.
It now it should. Win.
That's tragic. It needs to take something, man.
I'm voting split fiction. Sam Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And for those who haven't playedit, God damn it, what are you
doing? Yeah, play the fucking game.
I watch, I watch a lot of you guys play that shit.

(01:35:33):
You don't have to even own 2 copies of the game.
They give you a freaking code that the person doesn't have to
have the game. Multiplayer.
That's the definition. Of multiplayer, unless it's
multiplayer. Right come.
On man, come on. I mean also come.
On you know, it's funny, I talked to a Co worker about this
like split fixer, you got to play that.
He's like, I don't have any friends.
I was. Like.

(01:35:53):
That would just calmly walk awayfrom the conversation.
We're done here. What the fuck?
And he was serious. He wasn't even joking that shit.
With a sad ass face too. What's another shot?
Caught me off guard. I mean, apparently the guy who
has no friends. I'm good.
I got it right here. Oh damn.
Where's that in your pocket? Yo, I'm going to need that shit

(01:36:15):
at The Game Awards and I'm watching.
Hold that shit up. Dude, split fiction still gives
like high recommendation for thegame of the.
Year and it doesn't win anything.
If split fiction does not win any award believe that I'm going
to go on a rant. There was torsions.
There was stuff done in that game.
I've never seen in any video game ever, ever, ever ever.
And I was just like, wow. Yeah, people want to talk about

(01:36:38):
it and haven't seen the last 3rdof the game.
Yeah, no, they've judged up thatnever, never, never.
Seen. You can't even imagine it.
Even if you have a fucking wild imagination, you can't even
imagine something like that. Multiplayer things that you've
never seen in your life. Quite awesome.
Yeah, awesome. I'm going to go on a foul rant.
If they did not win anything, they should have gotten

(01:36:59):
nominated for Game of the year. Damn.
It like the game you turn into pigs Nah, there ain't no game of
the year and that's what they'lltalk about that's.
Right, right. What?
Do we got next guys what we. Got No, I want to talk about.
I'm not going to split fiction, man.
That's what this is all about. We do care about spit fiction
and and you guys, you know, but there are a lot of.

(01:37:19):
I hate this category with a passion.
The best best sports slash skip skip skip about the sports and
race I'm. Actually burning I'm kind of.
I'm curious. To know what the fuck was
nominated. Oh, sorry.
Oh, OK. Sonic All right, so the.
Only racing game, No Mario Kart.Mario Kart.
Was whoa when you got Mario versus Sonic?
Where's Kirby? Yet too late.

(01:37:39):
No sports. Sports race All right, let.
Me. All right, that's kind.
Of Can we read off this shit forthe audio list?
Yeah, All right, so we got EA Sports FC-26.
Football Fight Club football. Club I know F-125.
That's always. Racing Mario Kart World.
Racing. Yep.
Rematch. Looks like soccer again.
Soccer. And Sonic racing cross world.

(01:38:02):
First of all. First of all, why are we
combining? Yep, that's why I hate this
racing and sports, that's why. Racing is a.
Sport, they've always. Been so they just.
Call it sports. See.
This is arcade. Racing.
This is what bothers me about the fucking award show.
Are you trying to tell me there wasn't enough racing games to

(01:38:22):
make five games this year? But racing is a support that's.
What? I'm saying it's not 5 they got.
If they want to, if they had five separated, then.
Just take the soccer out. But you know what?
No, let's soccer. I I don't know, I only played
one of those games. I played Mario Kart World.
I love Mario. I thought it was a lot of fun.
I would play it again. I want to play Sonic.
I heard Sonic was dope. I heard Sonic was very good.

(01:38:44):
Actually. I want Sonic to win.
Me too. Give Sonic some motherfucking
love. Me too, Sonic.
Let's give Sonic some love. Sonic we didn't get nominated
for best adaptation. Exactly.
I want Sonic. I want Sonic to win this.
Chad, Chad gave a good thing, they said.
Yo, Marvel Rivals isn't in multiplayer of the year.
Wait, I know it got not it got nominated for another for
another game. It was no live service.

(01:39:06):
Live service maybe? Live service OK.
I think it was live service, so now they're probably putting in
a. Multiplayer.
That's it Is multiplayer? It really is without
multiplayer. I got to talk to these people
that make these decisions for these categories because they
should be fucking fired. And not for nothing, we should
host the show like every year. I think it'd be way better with
a bottle of alcohol. Yes, as we read the category.

(01:39:28):
Why the fuck is this a category?Yo, yeah, honestly, if we're, if
we're like hosting the show witha bottle of tequila, it's a
wrap. I think it's going to be the
highest rated show ever. It'd probably be the most
entertaining by all means by because no one, no one knows
what the fuck. By far.
But I want Sonic to. I think Mario Kart World is
going to win but I want Sonic towin so bad and I'd be pissed if

(01:39:48):
any of the other games. And he said Indiana Jones came
out the same month as Sonic 3, but they skipped Sonic 3.
What do you guys want to win this crazy sports category?
Sonic, Sonic, Sonic. I don't even know what to pick
here because Sonic America, two different categories.
I haven't played any of these games, but I'm going to pick
Sonic. I I consider racing a sport, so
it's Sonic. I wouldn't pick Mario Kart as
any best racer of the year. I wouldn't.

(01:40:11):
Why? There's a lot of stuff that's
missing. For you personally or for the
community? All saying I didn't play any of
those, but that. So you like world though?
World. I like world.
Yeah, I do like world. That's the only one I played.
I didn't play any of the. Other.
So it's marry world. I'm trying to say who would, who
do you think would win? I think world's gonna win.
You think world win? Yeah, it's a whirlwind.
Cause 'cause 'cause I think a lot of the hates from a lot of

(01:40:33):
crybabies that are expecting what they got from Mario part. 8
A lot of love. And this game just came out so
you have to wait for DLC if theyintend to do DLC it.
Plays so much better and. It plays fucking great.
It plays great, so there's a lotof crybabies out there.
So here's the thing. But I never played Nintendo.
It is Nintendo. There was a Nintendo bias, so it
wouldn't surprise me if it did win.

(01:40:54):
But I want Sonic to win. You want Sonic to win?
I want Sonic to win. I think Sonic needs some love.
I think Sega needs some love. Listen, rematch got crazy
though. Love rematch.
And that was the the seafood developers.
And it's rematching. What's rematch?
Rematch the soccer game that wasby the Seafood Guys.
Get the shit out of here. And I mean, soccer's a huge,

(01:41:14):
that's a huge sport around the world, man.
A lot of people, a lot of other countries.
I mean, I heard a lot of good. Things that's why sports and
racing oh, just be separate if that's the case, that's why I
hate this category. It's a, it's a it's a shit
category plus. I never touched F1.
I don't know anything. Yeah, but I don't know who's.
Because soccer is huge and it's going to probably get more votes
because it's bigger. I hope I say Mario because

(01:41:35):
Nintendo, yeah. Bizarre One Sonic.
Sonic is supposed to get a protoman and Mega Man also his
character. They go, yeah, they get a bunch
of that's, they got a lot of shit.
In there, Yeah, Mega Man, let's get.
Some Minecraft, Mega Man, Pac-Man.
Let's. Get I'm not voting that until I
ask it. All right, so the next one here.
What is this here? Best SIM strategy simp?

(01:41:55):
Yeah, best simp and strategy best.
But but they all they all have the same strategy.
There is no strategy. All right, What's the strategy?
What is it? Give money so I can get angry.
Final Fantasy Tactics? Yeah, of course.
Jurassic World Evolution 3. What the heck?
OK. Oh, OK.
I didn't even know that was a strategy.
That's a build a park simulator type thing.

(01:42:16):
Oh, Sid Myers this year. Sid Meier's Civilization.
Civilization. OK, that was this year.
Simulation came out for a sync switch too.
It's on everything. Yeah, it was on a lot.
Tempest rising. Never heard of it.
The altars. I heard a little bit.
What is this 2 point museum? You know, just give it to Final

(01:42:37):
Fantasy. I don't move on from this.
Just move on from it. It'll be nice to see tactics
with get something even though Idon't.
I don't care. Even though I don't agree.
But you know what? I hope Final Fantasy doesn't get
it. You know why?
Because I've been broken heartedbefore and everyone needs to
fuck you. Feel that pain.
Beautiful pain. I want you all to feel that
pain. See, this is how you turn into a
villain. Yeah, it's a villain story.

(01:42:58):
This isn't my villain arc. I legit have AT shirt that says
this is the start of my. Yeah, for real.
This I'm going. Styles Life.
I'm going with the altars. I'm going with the altars.
The altars, I'm going with that.I don't know nothing about, I
don't know any of these fucking,I don't know anything about
anything. I don't know Small Fantasy
Tactics as a strategy RPG that alot of people love.

(01:43:20):
Give it to that. The only one I played.
But you know what? If it loses, now you know how it
feels. Oh, I'm gonna stab you, let me
say. Yeah, I know about fans,
tactics. I don't know what to actually
win that one. So you guys, no.
One knows anymore because they don't pick strategy RPG I'm.
Saying you guys know more about at least five fans.
Taxes to me. So fucking horse.
There you go. Fuck that category they ruined.

(01:43:40):
It I mean, what else did you putin there?
What? What else did you put in there
for this? Year No, not that this year, but
they ruined it every year. Yeah, yeah, Unicorn over there.
Fucking fire all. Of these are and they just.
Pick these random. Shits.
That these are worth anything. But what's the next?
What's the next one? Where I can use the best family?
No, you know. Yeah, click it, click it.
There might be some marriage. You're curious.
It's gonna be done. I'm not, I'll click it just out

(01:44:01):
of curiosity. Donkey Kong.
So we got Donkey Kong Bonanza Lego Party.
Let's see. Lego Voyagers, which I have by
the way, and that's a Co-op Legopuzzle platform here.
Mario Kart World, Sonic Racing, Cross Worlds, and Split Fiction.
Ohh, actually they got they got some bangers in there.
They. Got some bangers in there.

(01:44:21):
You know what, Sonic? Donkey Kong is not family.
I'm good. So we're getting that out.
I'm going to say split fiction, man.
I would say what's gonna get, what do I think's gonna win?
I don't know the Lego. Though it's about family.
Lego though. Listen, as much as I love split
fiction, I don't think it's a family game because of what he
deals with, and I don't think a little kid can deal with a lot

(01:44:42):
of the loss in that game. They do curse in that right.
No loss. That's dark.
There's some themes in there that I don't think.
That's not family. No, that's spoiled.
That's not family. There's themes.
In there for like under 10 will be like, oh, you're pushing it
a. Little I'm gonna say Mario Kart
World is going to get it. I want Sonic.
Give Sonic the other one Mario Kart World can get.

(01:45:02):
Family. I think Mario Kart World also
because I played the demo of Sonic Racing with my daughter.
She didn't like it. She like it's a little chaotic
no and because it's 30 frames the it's like I tried I tried to
explain where I was like mom it's.
Not know anything about that. She nothing to do with.
She knew something was off. She knew it's a racing game.

(01:45:24):
Yeah, it wasn't Mario that was. She loves Mario.
Yo, is this hereditary? I guess.
Must be behind. It she's like she she knew
something was off and I was like, don't worry December 4th
it's gonna have 60 frames you're.
Playing, If she says to me, yeah, it didn't have 60 frames,
I'm a fucking joke. You 'cause you fucking poison.
You know buddy frames is playable smoothly.
Yeah, not true. I still play some games, 30

(01:45:46):
frames. It's OK, but I'm gonna push back
a little bit. I'm done.
Kong Bonanza, because I actuallybeat that with my daughter.
And you can play it, but it's. Yeah.
Compared to a Mario Kart World, Mario Kart World is more of a
family. Hole in the building, ho.
Ho ho, what's going on? Well, stop.
So. Stop.
Yeah, me personally, I want split fiction.
I want I would vote split fiction, but I would I want.

(01:46:08):
Split fiction to win something. I want it to win, but.
Because I it's not. For that category.
But if it wins, that's fine. I think Mario Kart.
Mario Kart should get that one. Split fiction should get.
The I want Sonic to win all day.And if Sonic wins, that's fine.
Hey, I want Sonic to win something.
I think the Lego games might have a a higher caliber of
family. I would agree with that, I
actually. Think so, but because I haven't
played, I can't vote. On it I've won.

(01:46:29):
But you know, also all the Lego games are good for that they're.
All they're easier for them. And if you die, you come back,
and there's the infinite continues.
Voyagers the game. I think that that I think the
the the Lego Party when they'll probably get through that game
possibly easier than any of the other.
Lego should Voyagers looked interesting though, dude, I'll
show you guys footage of it. But it looked it looked.

(01:46:50):
Oh yeah, I want to. I want to play this on the
channel, man. But I think Mario Kart would win
because of the child modes like the OH.
Yeah, you know all those. Steering and stuff like that so
it looks like they can play. I got beat by a three-year old.
Mario Mario Kart World will get something.
Yeah, trust me, think it would be that it will.
Yeah, yeah, I agree. I agree.

(01:47:10):
But Don Kong, you just breakthrough the ground.
Kids ain't looking at that. Banana.
All right, best fighting. There we go.
Let's go Best fighting. This is funny.
What's up? Yeah, that's hilarious.
It's funny. 2X KO. It's not out yet.
Capcom Fighting Collection 2. Is a collection of old games.
Fatal Fury, City of the Wolves. Yep, Mortal Kombat Legacy

(01:47:32):
Collection. Also a collection.
Spelled with AK Virtual Fighter 5 revo world stage.
Wait, why are why are all these like old?
Games old game. These are all old games.
Yeah, well, 2X KOI think. That's not out.
It's been the demo, they have a demo that they're playing and.
How you gonna give? They gave a multiverse beta.
Early it's a game. DLC last year as a fucking.

(01:47:55):
It's early access. Yeah, it's early access, so not
a completed game. Not all the characters.
I know, I know they did. Wait.
Let's I pull pull those up again.
I know they did it once. So you have a collection of old
games, collection of old games. 1.
New fighting game? This isn't real.
Technically not. What's the new game?
Where's? The Fatal Fury, City of the
World. Give it, give it.
I want. I want Fatal Fury to win.

(01:48:15):
Yeah, yeah, give it to fatal. The rest of fucking old.
Yeah, the fuck are we doing? And it's good.
Mad anime fighting games. Yeah, well.
Here's the thing I heard the bleach game was.
But is it a new fighting game? It is new.
It should be OK. It's a game from the 90s.
Collections should not be up there.
No, Collections and remakes should not be up there.
But if they're gonna have collections, didn't Marvel

(01:48:37):
Versus Capcom come out this year?
Early collection. It's on there.
It's not. It's not listed as a no.
Capcom. Fighting Fighting Collection
Capcom. Collection.
No, that's not Marvel Versus. Capcom so it shouldn't be there.
No, that is no, that is the Cap,that it's not Marvel.
The Marvel Fighting Collection. That's the other one, yeah.
So I'm like, I'm, I'm thinking like, why the hell is not?
Because there's not that many categories.

(01:48:57):
Give it to City of the Wolves. Yeah, I think.
That's the only I think that should win.
No Fatal Fury City of the Wolvesshould win because like this is
all stuff that came out except for two XKO which isn't fully
out yet. Two XKO looks like it should
win, but who? Is in charge of this shit.
It's. Every year it gets.
Worse. Well, actually, if you really
think about it, no big fighting games except for Fatal Fury.

(01:49:17):
City of the Wolves came out, so give us the awards.
That anime fighting games, therewas a bunch.
Oh yeah. There's a bunch and.
Even if they're not that good, put them up there.
There's enough. There's enough.
There's enough. By choice actually qualify.
And you know what, all these games I get nominee, they get
recognition. So if you know what I mean, like
it gets it out there. Plus you could put, plus you
could put a racing game in there.

(01:49:38):
Dude, best fighting game. Throwing a racing game in that
bitch Sonic. I swear these are most.
Sonic Fighters. They get me mad every year.
I'm going to bring Victor Lucas back on next year.
We're going to talk about this shit because I know he defends
it a lot. But I I go, I'm like, no, no,
there's something wrong here. Yeah.
Dude, they put an update for Virtual Fighter Five, Yeah,
which is over 10 years. What's?
The next one Beyond Moving on. Best RPG.

(01:50:01):
Let's do it. There we go.
Avowed. OK, Claire.
Obscure, Expedition 33. Kingdom Come, Deliverance 2.
Monster Hunter Wilds. OK.
The Outer Worlds 2. Claire.
Claire. Claire.
Claire. Claire.
Claire. There's, there's.
And you know, as Listen, I didn't play the other ones, and
I know it. You know, it sounds bullheaded

(01:50:23):
to just vote for something if you didn't play the other games.
No, Claire. Yeah.
You can only fight with me. You could only talk about what
you played, man. Kingdom come, I've actually has
a chance, but. I heard a lot of good things.
I heard a lot of good things about it.
But that's if the PC World was voting.
That's it. Then maybe they would have
picked that right? But Claire's scared Expedition

(01:50:43):
33 is pretty much going to take everything that it's in.
I will bet a lot of money that they're even not even playing
the the other games in that category, that they don't do
what Claire does. And I've played seven hours.
That's crazy. OK.
And I played. But that's how good it is.
That's how good it is. You played overnight.

(01:51:04):
I played seven. And I'm telling you, I don't
even want to see the other games.
I already know what deserves thebest RPG RPG of the.
RPG of the. Year, yeah, that should win.
Yeah, there's no RIP offs or or bias here.
Next category. I got about 14 hours in and I'm
like yeah, no, no, you know whenyou play it, you know what?

(01:51:25):
Unless the last boss is the worst shit in the world, it's a
fucking clown. And it's like the worst ending.
Drop the ball at the end, you lose 2 points automatically.
But I'm sure that's not the case.
No, it's not. So yeah, we.
Don't like the mimes? I love killing them.
They all have to die. I want to find all of them and
kill everyone of them. I love shooting them.
What's next? All right, so let's go back.

(01:51:47):
To RBG should be a given. That that if it doesn't, I'd be
like you guys, so crazy. So by the way, that's the first
category that Claire obscure washow your nomination.
So that's the first multiplayer game of the year.
But but it's not multiplayer. Yeah, it's just in there.
I don't know. Still voting?
Yeah, sure, he gets it. I don't know.
Bass, bass, bass. Bommers.

(01:52:09):
Nonommers. What the hell is wrong?
Best Action Adventure is the next category and we have Death
Stranding 2 on the beach. Ghost of Yote.
Oh wow, that came out. Hollow, hollow night like it
didn't. Come out.
Yeah, it's finally in a categoryfor once.
Holy shit. Hollow Night, Silk Song, Indiana

(01:52:30):
Jones and the Great Circle and Split Fiction.
They got some bangers in that category.
That category is crazy. Respectfully, respectfully,
Ghost of Yote better take this son.
Wait, wait, what's category? No action.
Adventure, action adventure shit.
I can't be mad that's. Odd place like a samurai flick
bro. It's it's so cinematic.
Every duel that you have in thatgame, it's like the intro to the

(01:52:54):
duel right before you start. It's like an it's like a samurai
movie. It should win.
I didn't play any of those games.
I'm sure ghost. But Ghost needs to win
something. Yeah, Ghost is as polished as
I've seen. I have to assume that Ghost is I
would like it to win that category.
However, if if split fiction gotit, I would not be mad because
it deserves something. Yeah, Indiana Jones, I heard was

(01:53:16):
fucking incredible. Yeah, but I, you know, I tried
playing it and, I don't know, pissed me off.
So fucking so first person and it goes to third person when
you're climbing. I'm like, it should be third
person. People love Indiana Jones.
I know they say it's love. Dope.
As far as they'll stay, it stoodthe early test of time when it
came. Out.
I do want that nostalgia something.
The nostalgia factor is cool. I do want to.

(01:53:38):
Watch it is Indiana Jones. I like watching people play it,
but playing it I was like, Nah, man, I can't.
I couldn't do it. I would have played if it was
third person. I definitely would have played
it. Same.
I was wanting it to be third person but.
Silk Song is in there, which is an oddball out of those songs
because none of those games are Metro Albania's right.
And that popped in there like, hey.
To be honest, I think it's between Yote and Hollow Knight.

(01:54:00):
Hollow Knight I. Think it's gonna be between?
Strong on Silk song, yeah. Yeah, I think.
It's between those two. But I also heard people who
played Death stranded too love. But you know, but you know, this
category won't upset me because they're all solid Yeah, all the
games are solid from what I heard.
So I this this will not upset me.
Whatever they pick, whoever wins'cause it's all quality games.
Yep. Even even Death Stranding too,

(01:54:21):
which you know, the first one got hated on for being a fucking
FedEx simulator. Yeah, but but I heard this one
was very good. I don't know who's going to
actually win this one. I didn't play all of them.
I didn't play any of the butt split picture.
I think it's Yote or Hollow Knight.
Split picture still get my butt.Split.
Picture. I know it's not going to, but
I'm. Voting I'd be low key excited
but like yo get them, get some awards, get those awards.
I want split fiction to win, butI'm going to say what might win

(01:54:44):
is a. Ghost should win something, so
should win something ghost and Idon't think there are any
categories rather than this. Right.
See, this category calms me because it doesn't bother me.
These are all quality games, they're all bangers and they all
deserve it. So that's.
Fine voting for Yote 'cause you got a top knot.
Right. No, I am I I got my samurai shit
right now. Look at that Yote.

(01:55:04):
And mass Mass Exhibition 33 is really that good.
Yes, but those who played it. I'm going to start it this
weekend. No, I, I, it's really that good.
I vouch. It's a work of art.
Now you gotta skip that. Skip that.
That's better too. Skip that.
Wow. And next you kept playing next.
Listen, Sticks put me on and andI listened and yeah, no, I'm

(01:55:25):
blown away, man. I'm blown away.
Exhibition 33 is still on Game Pass.
You got, you got hit. I just wish this piece of
garbage would play Unicorn Overlord.
Wow, oh wow. Called out.
Called out. Why did you voice that?
Why? I don't like that respond.
You got called out, son. Yeah.
What's? The next category.

(01:55:46):
All right, so whoever takes to this one, I don't care.
It's a win. They probably deserve it.
It's a win. It's a win.
Okay, best action game. Let's do it, yeah.
Okay. OK, we got Battlefield 6.
OK Doom. The Dark Ages.
OK, Hades 2. All right.
Ninja Gaiden 4. OK, Shinobi.

(01:56:07):
Shinobi all time. Let's.
Go now. This is tough.
This is a tough one, man. Tough because I played Hades 2
got like 10s, Ninja Gaiden 4 gotcrazy.
A lot of people love it. You guys love it to Doom the
dark shinobi's fucking 10 out of10.
You play Doom, you fucking love that shit.
Fucking battlefield. You can.
How about a plane you get in another plane?

(01:56:28):
What's it got with Doom? The Dark Ages did differently
and it was awesome, but none of the other Doom games did was the
shield and the freaking the melee is so freaking satisfying.
This is another category where it's like, tough.
It's tough, but you know me, Shinobi.
Should win something. The ones who've played through
it, You know, this game deservesan award.

(01:56:51):
Yeah, Yeah, right. This this is this is not even
like, oh, you know, this is justsomething no list.
This game is fucking crazy. So we know now what you're going
to pick obviously for your person, right?
No way. But what do you think is going
to take it put it up. Let's see.
I don't think ninja guy 4 is going to get it.
I think there's a strong chance Haiti's two gets it.

(01:57:12):
I think it's a big chance that Haiti's two gets it because
Haiti's won one and was nominated for game of the year
didn't win it. It won, yeah, but that name is a
popular name, so they might haveto give it something.
It did win. It did win the first one, yeah.
It one game of the year. It guy gave it a year.
I thought it was nominated. No, no, no.
So even that even helps it even more that it might get
something. I mean, people are high on.

(01:57:33):
But shinobi, first of all, shinobi being nominated is
special. That's fucking awesome.
But it needs to win. It is. 10 out of 10 I agree. 10
out of 10, you can't fight me onthat.
Shinobi is a 10 out of 10, but Idon't think the world works.
I think it's either Hades 2 or aNinja Gaiden 4.
I think Ninja Gaiden 4 is pure action.

(01:57:56):
I mean, listen, Shinobi's pure action too, the way you have the
mechanics in there. And I do pure action, and I do
like for you, Hayabusa, better than Joe Musashi.
But Joe Musashi needs to get something he's get.
Something 4 is like all suck. You see an enemy, it's all
action. Yeah, so I don't I wouldn't mind
if that one, but I I would vote shinobi.
I think Shinobi should win because it's gorgeous and it is

(01:58:18):
a 10 out of 10. Turbo a truck.
Ninja Gaiden 4 gotten 4 like I can't like after after playing
through that game like Nah Ninjagarden 4 dude dismembering these
enemies and being you feel like a real super ninja bro.
I need I need you to play show though.
I need you to play that. I need you.
You would you would eat that game.
I. Really love it.
I love the Ninja Gardens, the 3Dones I love.

(01:58:40):
Well, I like the 2D ones you played. 4.
I have not played 4I. I've not.
It looks great though, but I can't wait to play 4.
It's on. My Shinobi So you haven't played
any of these games? No, no, no, no.
I played Shinobi. I'm about like 10 hours in the
Shinobi. Yeah, I play a lot of Shinobi.
I love that game. I think it's awesome.
I'm also playing Ragebound also.I'm halfway through that game as
well and I think. Prize this that's not, and

(01:59:01):
there's no fucking ragebound. There's no rage bound, but.
Oh, it's I'm so mad, right? You know I I like Shinobi's
action better than rage bound. It's definitely combat.
But I like the platforming better than Rage bound.
So it's like it's but I like to see Shinobi win.
I like to see him take this award.
I would, I would love for shinobi.
It will not. Though I'm not sleeping on

(01:59:22):
battlefield though it wouldn't. Surprise, it probably wouldn't
piss everyone off. Doom, Dark Ages, you played it
right. Good campaigns.
I think hate is to a win that though what I think.
I'm tilting towards hate is 2. Is going to win that?
I think so too, but I'm voting shinobi.
I will. Doom could take it too.
Dooms I don't. Like Dooms taking it.
You don't think so? I'll.
Be doomed. There's something.
Yeah. I don't think it will.
You think Doom is doomed? Moving on, we got.

(01:59:44):
Next, I really wanted to see you.
Making people hate the game, making people hate the podcast.
Jesus Christ hit that like. That like please please somebody
please before you wrote I gotta deal with this.
Got 20 people in the chat. Let's get 20 likes up in this
one. Help us.
All right, so we got help us. What do you guys think of this

(02:00:05):
here? Best VRAR?
Nope, I. Played it.
Hold on a second, let me just stop podcast for a second.
We got 10 likes and 20 people inthe chat.
What's going on? Whoa, the map.
Map ain't mapping. Come on y'all, come on.
Y'all take a while to move theirfinger over what's going on.
Come on y'all, come on. Actually, don't just put your
thumb up, actually hit. The thumb hit the thumb up and

(02:00:28):
then put a thumb in the chat. Word.
Yeah. So we don't care.
About that we. Don't care about that.
No, we are right. Best mobile game?
No. No.
Best debut indie game? Yeah.
We. Go now we can skip it.
It's weird. Is it?
Yeah. I don't know any of those.
What? Oh, actually, no, man.
What are you talking about? I see one.

(02:00:49):
I see one. All right, Let me read it out.
Let me read it out. I know.
I see two blueprints. Claire Obscure.
Expedition 33. Yeah.
Desperate. Deep love.
Desperate. I don't know.
I don't know, Kemp said. Deep love, Come on, come on.
And and dispatch. I love this man.
I heard dispatch was fucking dope and no Claire man sorry

(02:01:11):
that's a debut. Dispatch is that superhero game,
right? Yeah.
And you know what? The blueprints, I played a
little bit of it. It's good.
But Claire, man, Claire. I think honestly, I think from
all the love I hear about Claire, I think Claire is going
to take. That Claire.
Well, that's why I said skip. This one, to be honest, Claire
should win almost every categoryand I would not be angry.

(02:01:32):
This is the perfect category. For people are actually angry at
the debut indie type deal. They don't want it to be an
indie game. There should be a fifth choice.
Also, it's a whole argument. Technically the whole argument
it is. Mad indie games game you.
Know what? I wish they would let me go into
the board room with them and redo these categories.
They need to split it up a little.
Bit they fuck these categories up every year.

(02:01:53):
Yeah, you shouldn't have a over a bunch of $1,000,000 for indie,
so it would be a different category, but it should take
whatever. Yeah, but it shouldn't be
against the guy who's 1 little guy.
It should be best AAA. Eddie Raymond said dispatch.
Dispatch is dope. This guy looks good.
Yeah, it's actually, I watched alot of it.
Looks pretty. Fun.
But they said that. Let me tell you a quick thing

(02:02:13):
about dispatch. They said that in the awards it
could not be nominated for best narration because the whole game
wasn't out yet. It was.
It came out. But you can nominate 2 XKO right
for best fighting. Not even out yet.
Not even. And it's not even done.
They need. To read you.
Got it. Here you.
Need to redo these categories. They're contradictive so not in

(02:02:34):
constant. Man, it is terrible and
ridiculous. Two XKO with like 6 characters.
Oh, OK. Bad fighting Game of the year
The demo. They should have a category 4.
Demos. They put a demo.
They should have a demo. They should have a demo
category. There's a lot of horseshit going
on at all times, and I'm. Tired but but but they also said
that it is not eligible for nextyear because of the time frame

(02:02:55):
that it was shut off. You know you can't be in either
year. You know what?
What? That's what that is.
So we'll see if they go. To the toilet.
Yeah, The next category. Yeah, let's go.
Get me awards. Get me if.
Claire. So, Claire Obscure, right?
We're all in agreement. Yeah, yeah.
Take it, Take. It if Claire doesn't win, take.
That it. Should be Leon.
What's the next? Category Next category here is

(02:03:17):
Best Independent game. Is that the same thing?
It was debut. The other one was debut.
Hold on hold, on hold on hold. Your Yeah, Hold on, hold on,
hold. On Oh my God.
Starting with Absalom shit ball X pit, which actually I forgot I
I did play this game people hugeon it's actually it's pretty

(02:03:37):
good blueprints Claire obscure Hades 2 there's some bangers
there this. Is Jesus.
This looks like a solid category.
All right, all right, there's, there's all of them are quick.
There's 2II. All right, 2.
Controversy. What?
Let me tell you. Controversy.
Yeah. So go back to the thing.
So they said that since Hades and Hollow Knight both had the

(02:04:00):
sequels to highly successful independent games already,
right? And they use the budgets for
those. And obviously Claire having the
budget that it has, those 3 should be excluded from the best
independent game. Because of the budget.
Because of the budget that they have and the popularity that
they had, those two released that hades.
And Silk Song. Because of this, obviously going

(02:04:23):
to be popular because of what already happened.
The second one. Yes.
So those three they had a problem with, do I agree?
I don't know. I'm not in that they're there
all right for this category. These three, I want Absalom to
win this category. I want Absalom to get something
because that is a amazing game. It's a beautiful game and

(02:04:45):
Claire's going to get everything.
Claire is going to get everything.
They don't need to take every single category.
Here's the thing, some people got to eat these.
Like these three games, Claire, Obscure, Hades 2, and Folk Song
are all in the game of the year now.
They don't need this. They don't need this.
Let Absalom No, I agree. This I agree.
But you know what's going to winif it's not clear.

(02:05:05):
Claire. Claire will if it's.
Not clear? You know what's going to.
Win. I don't know, because silk Silk
song they'd be. They'd be deciding.
Yeah, they'd be. So song's going to win.
It or haters too. No, I think so.
Song I don't. I'll do it.
I don't think Absalom is winningthis category.
No, I do not think it is. You don't have faith in it.
No, I just don't have faith to people on the fucking show.
But it got through nomination. It is there.

(02:05:27):
It is there. And you need to win this
category when games are nominated, it gives them a lot
of recognition. But when you see when?
You see, it's gonna make a killing.
When you see the fix, it's a good fix.
Is in. There's three fixes in that
category and Absalom cannot overcome that.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, independence shouldn't
have juggernauts. Absolutely.
Juggernauts. Yeah, it should have sequels.

(02:05:47):
Like I don't think. Yeah, I don't think it should
really have. Absalom is the one that we want
to win, but I probably just thought of it just now.
What's that podcast topic? How to fix the awards like we'll
have IDSI? Don't.
Know don't we do that No, no, wewe never we we made our own
award show but we got to like take out categories and fix them
yeah I'm a fucking do that shit I'm done with that I'm tired of

(02:06:09):
this shit I'm done with that next category before I throw
something. I mean, it's only gonna get
worse. No, as we get further it gets
bad. Do you have a stress toy or
something? No, I don't.
No, I don't. I should get one.
Let's see, that was best community support.
I'll. Take a peek.
Take a peek. Let's see.
Let's see what's there, right? We got boulders.

(02:06:30):
Gate three. Final Fantasy Fortnite.
Hell Divers 2O, Hell Divers 2. Hell Divers 2.
Let's go. Hell yeah, Yeah.
And No Man's Sky. I mean, No Man's Sky wins, but.
Hell divers. Two, I like hell divers 2 hell.
Divers 2 man. But No Man's Sky should win
because it's been 10 years and they.
And I'm happy that they're stillheld divers is actually in
there. I'm happy that they're still
talking about gold divers. Man, No Man's Sky has a switch

(02:06:52):
to port, so yeah, No Man's Sky. But that is live, live.
I like how that's your only likecriteria you said.
So how old I was 2 did not make the cut for multiplayer game of
the year. That's there's so many
questions, there's so many. I guess it wasn't questions.
It didn't come out this year. No, it didn't.

(02:07:13):
Yeah, I guess if it's new, if itcame out this year, doesn't make
sense. OK, I'm OK with that.
But live service is still alive.And this is community support.
So yeah, the community, the community is good though.
Yeah, yeah, they. Bought it back, they bought it
back to life. It was on what came out on Xbox.
I don't want to see, I don't want, I don't.
I honestly don't want to see Fortnite in any category ever.

(02:07:34):
I mean, that's ever. But you see it every year.
I can't every. Year I can't question every
every year they they support it.They don't.
They do. I just don't want to see it
because I'm tired of it. It's like Joe, man.
They've done magic with that game.
Next category, please. Yeah.
They've done magic. I don't know how the.
Awards is the awards is not goodfor me.
Man it gets me so mad. Day three is live service.

(02:07:55):
I mean, wait, so live service and I don't know about that best
ongoing with what the heck Yeah,that's.
Live service OK, I want to checkthat.
Out. Oh, so that is live.
Best so boldest get is not live series, whatever that was, it's
community. All right, so it's Final
Fantasy, Fortnite, Hell, Divers to Marvel Rivals and No Man's
Sky rivals. Let's do it.
Marvel wobbles. They, they, they've done a good

(02:08:15):
job. I have to give it to them.
Agreed. I like it.
Yeah, Agreed. Agreed.
I like it is. Yo Nah, Marvel rivals better
than that. I'd like to see Marvel rivals,
but they might not like the newest kid on the block, Yeah.
I still vote No Man's Sky. They had it VR that's.
Crazy. Wow, they had it so much.
Wow. No, they did.
That was done so much. That's a 180 man.
That shit was a a failure when it launched.

(02:08:37):
You got to give respect and theyjust turned it around and it's
crazy good. For hell divers, let's go.
Hell divers, but yeah hell divers. 100% games for Impact.
OK, well, let's check it. Out I don't even know what that
I don't even know what the hell category is.
I don't think they know what that means.
They don't know what that category means.
It says it says for a thought provoking game with a pro social
meaning or message. Yeah.

(02:08:59):
OK, I don't. Play it any of them.
I don't know any of these games but consume me to split Lost
Records, South of Midnight Wander Stop.
I don't know. Any of those.
Any of them. Yeah, it's got out of that
category and who cares? I was actually looking for
Claire in there. I was like, it's Claire in
there, then I'll vote for it. I mean, it should be.
It should be best ongoing. Best.
No, that should be for. Respect.

(02:09:19):
I mean, there's some impact in there, dude.
We got innovation and accessibility.
No, not really, no. Best performance for sure.
Yeah, it is interesting. It's going to be clear, a lot of
it. Yeah, actually Claire Obscure is
3. Damn.
Ben Starr. Charlie Cox, Erica Ishi from

(02:09:39):
Gosa Yote, Jennifer English fromClare Obscure, Kansatsu Kato,
Silent Hill, F Hill, F Troy Baker from Indiana Jones, OH.
Shoot. So we got three.
They got some big, they got some.
So we got these three, these three people from Clare Obscure.
I'm not. They murder it.

(02:10:00):
They kill it. Jose Yote, Silent Hill, R and
Indiana Jones. It's.
Gonna be tough. My voters are Erica Ishi cuz you
know, I played through Ghost Yote so yeah.
And they, you know, they all fucking killed it.
So I think anybody from Clear obscure is going to win it.
Yo, Charlie Cox cracks me up. He's like, I feel like a fraud.
He's like, I know nothing about the game.
I'm not a gamer. I just took the thing and I did

(02:10:21):
it. All right.
I'm sorry. I feel like a fraud.
He did a great job. No, he did a good job.
He's. Fucking great.
I will throw this out there. What's that?
I think regardless, I I want Jennifer Lingus to win.
Jennifer Lingus, I want to win, OK, because she did a
phenomenal. Job.
Oh, was she? She's she's what you call it.
What's your character? She's a melody.
Oh man, I'm sorry. Kevin just sang that.

(02:10:43):
She just sang everything. Play the game.
I'm just saying. Throwing things out.
She's male. She's clear.
She's male. She's male.
Oh, no, she's male. Yeah, she's male.
Yeah. You know, that's she kills it.
She takes it. But I think Troy Baker can't be
overlooked for that because he was Indiana Jones.
That's hard. And he is Indiana Jones.
He did a killer job at being, I heard him, not Indiana Jones.

(02:11:06):
I agree with the part. He's not Harrison Ford, right?
You know what? So as a voice.
Give it to him. I think he has a.
Troy Baker. I have a chance of taking it
again. I can always wins.
He always wins. You know what he always
honestly, anyone in this category, I personally, I'm
pretty sure every one of them fucking murdered him, right?
You know, so it's like, but you know, being, that's a tough task

(02:11:26):
to be Indiana Jones. It wouldn't surprise me if he
but as. Far as the chances of winning,
like, I think I don't know, because like Clamps here wins
everything, but there's three actors from it, yeah.
I mean, like, who are you gonna pick?
They're pretty much taken into the category though, like.
Jennifer English wins Game of the Year for every game she's
in, right? Right.
So she doesn't kill it. She's getting paid, she's
picking, but I mean Ben. Starr always top Top all

(02:11:48):
everyone. Charlie Cox, Top.
Give him, give him all the fucking right, you know, they
give him every one of them. They fucking all deserve it so.
Charlie Cox is the Hollywood actor.
Yeah, yeah. So he's, he's good.
I mean, yeah. And he's like, I don't even know
about this game. Who's going to be on the podcast
next week? I'm joking, I'm joking.
Call us people. We got to get.
Him tell him to stop being Daredevil for a second and show

(02:12:09):
up, yeah. He's going to be like, guys, we.
Will have the winner. I don't know why I'm here.
That category on the show. But I wish.
I wish. Yo, he'd be a hilarious
interview. But like, guys, listen, I'm a
fraud. That's what he said too.
He's like I'm a fraud. Charlie shot a quizzy tomorrow
I. Was like, man, listen, take a
week, get off and just play the game.
Just play the game. They all deserve it.
I don't care. Yeah, now this is.

(02:12:30):
Did a kick, guys. I wouldn't be mad if.
It's all of them. Right.
Yeah, give it all. So best performance, best audio
design? Sad music?
I don't know. Sound effects.
Yeah, sound effects. Okay, Battlefield 6, Clear
Obscure 33. That's Stranding 2 Silent Hill
FI Can't comment on the other games.

(02:12:52):
Yeah, design, because I don't know if it's sound effects and
music or is it just sound effects?
My. Atmosphere.
I think it's. Sound, it says, recognizing the
best in game audio and sound design.
Yeah, OK. Because if it's soundtrack, no,
no, no, no, that's not. But the next category is best.
I don't think Claire should get this one because they did have
some audio mixing problems. I hope they fixed it but when

(02:13:16):
you first start the game the music is way over their voices
and I was like dude I couldn't fix the beginning of the game.
I didn't experience it. I didn't.
I didn't. Experience it?
Well I'm saying I played it right like earlier so they might
have fixed it so but I'm saying there were problems with audio.
I can't say what's going to because I didn't play the other
ones right. Hopefully Silent Hill because
it's probably creepy as shit. I know the sound.
My votes for Gosa Yote. I mean, you played it so.

(02:13:38):
Yeah, you heard I didn't play that.
Yeah, the the sword clashing. The blood, the blood squirt.
I remember Part 1 had their sound was polished.
Bizarre, bizarre, says Ghost. Ghost yeah, the sound of the
horse hooves beating the floor as they as it runs the.
Ground the grass. Yeah, the wind and.
Yeah, the arrows flying through the air.

(02:13:59):
Cinematic and. The voice actors for Cat, for
the cast of dispatch, because like I said, they're not
eligible for that. They they can't put the game
out. They got screwed and.
Bizarre, said Ghost. I mean, that's the intern man,
Even though he may act. Oh boy, listen.
Battlefield 6, Battlefield 6 andDeath Stranded 2 highly capable

(02:14:22):
of taking it. Yeah, but I haven't played them.
I. Wouldn't be mad at any of these
to be honest. I don't know.
I can't say the sound. But a war, if you could pull up
a war, the the sounds of the bullets and everything in the
buildings, like I think there's I think possibility.
I take it, I think battlefield might take this one man, cuz I,
I know a few people from from myjob that like Co workers that
are like every, every time I talk to them like, yo, there's

(02:14:44):
one thing. Oh yeah, I played Battlefield 6
all weekend. I played this shit.
It's like they're addicted to this.
Fucking it's what killed that and they.
Were like, yo, you could, you could destroy pretty much
everything in this game. It's crazy.
Wow. Yeah, but that Stranded 2 is
Hollywood. You know they ain't messing with
that. But we'll we'll see who wins
that. Yeah, I might tilt towards Seth
Stranding too. Now let's give it to Death

(02:15:05):
Stranding too. Give him some.
Give Daryl some love. Give Daryl some love.
Yeah, man, I I want all. I want all these games to eat,
man, I want True. No, no, I want games to eat.
I think it. Should, since they were done.
Well, yeah. I don't, I don't want clear the
clear clean sweep, but I wouldn't be something if that
happens. A clean sweep wouldn't be fair.
Clear. Obscure.

(02:15:25):
Yeah. Clear everything.
Everything is like sweep, obscure.
I like I would like all the games to get some type of
recognition somewhere. Dude at least I'll be very happy
if shinobi got something. I'd be like, yes, thank.
You, I mean, it's probably goingto get something somewhere else,
yeah. And there will.
There will win. Something that artistic design
has to win fucking gorgeous has to win something gorgeous.

(02:15:46):
What's the next? One.
All right, almost to the finish line.
Here we go. What was the best audio design?
Best score and music? Yes, here we go.
Oh yeah, Claire, it's the same fucking game.
But as we get closer, what threwme off is it's showing the the
names of the composers. Christopher Larkin for Hollow

(02:16:08):
Night, Silk song, Darren Korb for Hades 2, Claire, Obscure
Ghost of Yote and Death Stranding.
What pisses me off about this category, right?
Because because, you know, musicis very subjective, right?
So it's like, I didn't, I'd never heard any of the tracks
from any of the games besides Claire in this category.

(02:16:30):
Yep, say. However, the fact that Absalom
is not in this is fucking tragic.
I mean, there's a ton that tons of music in tons of these games.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It will never get.
Heard. Absalom The fact that that
that's not there is bullshit. Obviously little bias here when
it comes to Double Dragon Revive.
Double Dragon Revive I think hasan incredible, incredible

(02:16:50):
soundtrack, but that type of music will never make it to a
category like this because of whoever the fuck heads are we're
picking these games. Well, the fact that Claire
Obscure did not make it, did notmake the cut for the Grammys.
And they had games that have nowhere near as good music in

(02:17:12):
that category. Yeah, games that you would never
look at it for music, they were just popular names.
That is undeniably the wrong I. I can't believe that happened at
all, especially with the year and the soundtrack that this guy
put out was 8 hours long. That's crazy. 8 hours.
That's insanity. And everything in the game, it's

(02:17:35):
not like the same music. Yeah, it's dynamic, so it
changes. I think.
I think that needs to be like, there needs to be a spotlight on
it because you know, you have, if you're, you're playing a
game, you're going on stages andyou know, you have your music
for this stage music. But if you're playing a RPG and
the music kind of evolves as you're playing.
You'll find out. Like, like, like and I'm already
experiencing, I'm 7 hours in like, like if you that, if that

(02:17:57):
does not get priority over othersoundtracks, you need like,
people need to understand like Absalom does the same shit.
Yeah, that's why I'm upset. Absalom is not in there.
It's like the music enhances as you go further.
Like that's a big fucking deal. And it's not even, it's like
shit music. It's fucking amazing music.
So like, shinobi does not get talked about.

(02:18:18):
So as far as the the what's on here, as far as the categories,
I'm going to say Claire, becausethat's the only one I
experienced. Same.
Same. Yeah.
It's not Silk Song over Claire Silk.
Song Wow, Silk song is not a good story Yeah it.
Is not very. I'm going to go see, OK.
It is not. Wow.
It is clear all day. Shout out to all the composers

(02:18:39):
on this, on this category. They're all fucking talented,
this shit, yeah. All of them, I'm sure.
They're all good, I'm sure. They're all good, man.
Yeah, I. I but I have a soundtrack on my
yeah. To play Sok song, play Sok song.
On my music list that is 40 songs long.
I told you, I told you my favorite song so, so far in
Clair Obscure, which is the manner it's the name of the
track. I play it on repeat.

(02:18:59):
I just want to do a podcast. I'd probably have to be on
Patreon 'cause that's the only thing we can play.
I just want to do a four hour podcast about music because I I,
I will not stop talking about music because it fucking bothers
me to no end. How is people know the
importance of music in the game?Yeah, there's so much good
music. I have two playlists because I
forgot I had to come back in thehead like 10 more songs.

(02:19:22):
I discover new shit. I'm like what the I didn't even.
Hear. I didn't know.
Yes. When a song stops you in your
tracks, yeah. And you're like, I don't care
what's next, right? I just kind of want to listen to
this for a bit. Yeah, that that's, that's,
that's powerful. And people don't fucking mention
that shit in the the awards because they're getting paid the
fuck off you little Dick fucks. And I don't send, I don't send

(02:19:45):
soundtracks to people. I sent people to the Declare
Experience soundtrack multiple times.
It's awesome man. It's a shout out to what is it,
Lorian Tester, Who's the the composer?
Yeah, I got it. And all the other composers.
I get some people, some of thesepeople on the podcast.
So so so so. All right, let's let's, let's.
Podcast. Shout out to Daniel Lynn home

(02:20:07):
with the soundtrack there you. Go.
He's not in there. What the?
Hell, he throw his name in there.
Daniel Lynn home all day, throw throw his name in shout out.
All right, so we got best art direction.
What do we got? OK.
Interesting. Obviously clear, Obscure.
That's stranding, too. So so did I click the right?
Did I click the? Did I click the right one?

(02:20:29):
Oh, no, it's the same one. All right.
So, yeah, clear, obscure. That's Stranding, too.
Ghost of your take. Hades too.
Silk Song Give it give it to hates too.
Mario Kart World should have been in here for best art
direction. Wait, Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait. Art direction.
Shinobi is not an art. Shinobi is not in.
Shinobi is not an art direction.Shinobi is not in here, but Silk
Song is. This this category is nonsense

(02:20:49):
to me. There is no shinobi in this.
It's Dick writing on. Marvel rivals should be in here.
Too. Yes it should.
Yes, it should. Because now you're right, that
art direction is yeah. No, no saying the the.
No, you're right. TR Direction.
Yeah, the designs for every character, they're top.
They're top in the. Menu The menu makes you want to
buy the. Wait wait, why is best art

(02:21:10):
direction? Why is Death Stranding too and
best art direction? I mean, they're not well, that
looks, they're not real, dude. They look real.
They're not real. It looks good.
It's art. Good.
It's art. It is art, guys.
I mean, you're overreacting, man.
It is art. Have you watched the fucking
trailer? I have watched a lot of the
game. That is not best art direction.
Have you seen Absalom? It's cinematic, real.

(02:21:32):
I. Mean you're comparing a cartoon
art direction to to fucking Hades is cartoon.
I I got to say Ghost of Yote like the landscapes are
beautiful, the costumes gorgeous.
But does a. Little bit, the little bit that
I've seen of Claire obscure, like it's just a beautiful
looking game and I haven't even played it yet.

(02:21:53):
I have no, I think I think Claire is going to take that.
Yeah, it's going, I think it. Is.
I think so too. I mean, it looks, it does look
phenomenal, but. Replace Silk Song with fucking
shinobi. This is bullshit, Marvel.
Rival Song has a great. Art stranding out.
Put fucking Marvel rivals in there.
What takes? 80s to.

(02:22:13):
Hollow Knights 80s. To star direction.
Hollow Knights. Very artistic.
I'm so mad. Terrible.
I told you were off the podcast.Why are you still here?
Yeah, got a mute. Yeah, got a mute his mic.
When the ancient spirits of people revolt.
Against each other. Well, you talk about silk songs.
Art direction, dude. You know what's crazy as Shark
Alice, you go further. The more here that comes.

(02:22:34):
I mean, it's it's so the last category is the most angry, I
mean. Insect going to take everything
it's. Going to be the same five games.
No, it's going to be the same game.
Same games. As you get closer, it's the same
shit. What do you got?
Best narrative. Let's see the same games.
Look at that dispatch. With the different yeah, so we

(02:22:54):
got a clear obscure that's trying to ghost of Yote Kingdom
come deliverance to Silent Hill.F I'm not gonna I'm not gonna
shit on Kingdom come. A lot of you know what a lot of
people talk about Kingdom come. I can't shit on.
I never played it, but sat on hill.
I watched some of the game. OK.
I wasn't that intrigued. Yeah, I'm like, OK, that to be
cool, to be honest, I don't think it should be on this
category. I really.

(02:23:15):
Don't. Go so Yote did not play, but I
know that narrative is fucked crazy because the first one's
fucking insane yes it is. That's stranding too.
I heard a lot of great that I'm not no problem with that either.
Claire obscure obviously. What else am I going for?
Right, right, right, right. I mean, that is the best
narrative to me. I'm going to say Claire.
Same, same. I would say Claire and Yote
should probably get this. You know what's in the whole

(02:23:36):
game of Claire? I will highly vote that.
Yeah. Yeah.
I think I think they might throwa curveball and and put Death
Stranding too. Possibly.
They'll throw a curveball and say Silent Hill.
I'd be like turn off shit that'snot.
But as far as what I want to win, I've of course Clash Clan.
Clan. If Death Strand is going to win
anything, I wouldn't mind it taking back, yeah.

(02:23:59):
You know, yeah, I wouldn't be mad.
I was going to win. Because, I mean, baseball should
get freaking. It's a narrative game, but fuck,
man. Yeah, like, come on.
Yeah, person narrative. Silk Song should be silk.
You need to talking soon. You gotta stop.
I need to I'm gonna throw a glass for.
The audio listeners, you're about to hear a freaking smack.

(02:24:19):
Yes. The loudest smack.
Going to be a shop. Now I'm bringing a frying pan.
It's like it just Bing, Yeah. They're sleeping on Silk Song
man, sleeping on it. The only the only category I had
a problem with Claire so far is the one that was Shinobi.
That's it. All right.
So what the heck? Oh, so best art direction is
here, right? We did that already.
Yeah. Then this one.
Then it was narrative best. Best game direction.

(02:24:41):
Sure. You know, it's the same game
that's. The same fucking thing we're.
Not on the screen bro. It's not on the screen.
You know it's the same games slip picture.
Really, it's on there. This is the.
Game of the. Year you know what any category
split fictions and I wanted to win I want to win I actually
want to win so just to clarify this is the description of it so
best game direction awarded for outstanding creative vision and

(02:25:05):
innovative design game directionand design OK split fishing 100%
split fiction needs to take thisplease that that that is that
the definition of that category exactly word for word fiction
word for word that is split. In half, it's going both
directions. It should win.
From If we're going based on thedescription of the category,

(02:25:26):
yes, Split fiction should win without a shot of them.
Yes, they installed the description of the.
So just for the audio listener. I didn't read out the games that
were off here. It's a clear obscure Death
Stranding 2, Ghost of Yote, Hades 2 and Split Fiction.
Split fiction give us split fiction.
So yeah. That's a split fiction.
Death Stranded 2 on the beach isthe silliest title I've ever

(02:25:48):
heard. You just had to put that down.
Oh, that's the full name. Yeah, on the beach.
That's the the subtitle. That's stupid.
On the beach. I hate the title.
That's stupid. That's weird.
But yes, this is the true game of the year category.
What? It should be out there.
Yeah, Yeah, people are going to say so.
Some should be there. But listen, split fiction
shouldn't have been taken off the list.

(02:26:08):
That's all I got to say. Yeah, it.
Should be 10 games. Listen 10 games.
Game of the Year selection. Listen, split fiction should get
at least 2. Awards I should.

Apologize. That that was warranted.
Pull those up again, it's warranted.
There's one up, man out. Like really really.
Dude, no, Goes to Yote and SplitFiction are not on there.
Yeah, why? I don't doubt that Donkey Kong
Bonanza is a good game. I do.
Yeah, you gave it an 8, You gaveit an 8.

(02:27:14):
That's a good game, right? But it's not a game of the year.
Yeah, it deserves. 8A9 but it's not a game of the year.
I'm comparison to the games up there.
Yeah, it. Doesn't mean Donkey Kong's a bad
game, but does not hold up with a lot of these.
Could goes to Yote. You know is A10 right?
OK, split fiction. You know it's a 10.
Claire Obscure is a fucking 12 right?

(02:27:34):
Like Donkey Kong should not be there.
I wasn't engrossed in that guy like that the whole game.
I was like, all right, is the when does it get real good?
But. You know what?
Damn. Call me crazy.
All right? Even though I did not play this
game, but Silk Song should be replaced with split fiction.
Yeah, I'm sorry. No, I agree with that for a game

(02:27:55):
of the year. Silk Song.
Silk Song. Undeniable.
They can get their game with their their awards for other.
But even though it shouldn't be but I'm sure listen, I don't.
I just never understood the the astounding hype for Silk song.
I know Internet is going to comeafter.
Me because? But the fact that it wasn't

(02:28:16):
released for so many years is why it built so big.
Yeah, the hype game of the year.I don't know if Hollow Knight
was ever. Game of the Year.
I don't think it was that hype for Game of the Years.
I don't remember it being ghost of your taste not on there.
Ghost of your taste not on. There, that's wild.
Ghost. Wait, wait, wait.
Where's Indiana Jones? Not on there.

(02:28:37):
It's not on either. Wow.
And they said that should have been game of the year a long
time. There is problems snubbed.
There is problems with this category.
Mass isn't done with Kojima. I can't, obviously, I can't say
anything about King Lipcom because I've never played it,
but I hear it's fucking incredible.
Same thing about Death Strandingtoo.
I can't say anything. I hear great things, man.
But everything in between, hey, these two, I hear it's amazing,

(02:28:58):
it's great, all that stuff, OK. That's a heavy snub.
Though but but Ghost of Yo Tang.Yeah, yeah.
Not being in there, not even to mention.
That not not not nominated for game of the year.
What did you say? Yeah, that's.
And I know what type of game it is.
Yeah, playing the first one, I know that it's fun.
And they say it's better than the first one.

(02:29:18):
And it's not on Game of the Year, but Donkey Kong is.
Donkey Kong need to be a perfectten to be on that list.
Because they, you know, why not?Because they, they paid for
like, there's somebody paying some money.
Nintendo's like yo. He said no, we can't get Mario
Kart here, So what the hell. That's exactly that's exactly
what it was. It was they were like no Mario
Kart. OK, so we can we can throw a

(02:29:39):
Donkey Kong on there. OK, how much do you do?
How much do we need to pay? OK, we got that done.
He. Said it looks like a safe bet.
Let's do Donkey Kong here. Bullshit.
Donkey Kong is like Hulk, but you're a monkey fighting.
Give it a fighting fuck that category, give it to fucking
Claire, and we're done. Yeah, we know it's going to
take. And if they don't, it's going to
be yo-yo. It's going to be.

(02:30:02):
Shot if Silk song wins this shit, oh, why anything?
There will be a podcast just on that.
Yeah, yeah. Decision, yeah, yeah.
Anything other than Claire Obscure wins game of the year.
This year there is going to be some I'm boycotting.
I will only watch the trailers on YouTube.
Yeah. Same I'm sorry, I'll wait I'll
wait. This shit is done and be like

(02:30:23):
all right, there will be an epictrashing of the game awards on
this podcast yes, if Claire doesnot win yo, you know what we
should do? We should get a Jeff Keeley
dartboard and. I mean one will be ordered if
this happens. That's a good idea.
I should make those because if there's something that's just a
clear, this is game of the year,just get it's game of the year.

(02:30:45):
But we're going to watch. We're going to be excited.
And we're going to be. The trailers, no, we're going to
watch. But the trailer?
Just going to watch for the and when they give the awards we.
Go like this. All right, where's the next
trailer? We're going to see if they
announce anything that gets us excited.
We'll see. So that concludes the the.
Awards, Yeah. What do you guys think?
Predictions. Our predictions.

(02:31:05):
In the comments guys. In the comments, what do you
think is going to win at least game of the year if you don't
want to go through each category, But if you want, I
mean, listen, you can type what you want down there.
If you don't just type some bullshit man.
They should have. They should have 10 on the like
button. The game of the year.
They should have a there. Should be more.
There should be more there. Should be 10, there should be
10. There should be at least a year.
Look at yeah, 'cause it's not like we have any control over

(02:31:27):
what wins. You know what they said?
They said 10% of the vote is people like us. 10%. 10% So why
include us? How about you know the rest of
it is why? Why even have it Voting?
You cannot turn the tide. Just for sure.
Yeah. Yeah, it's just a hey.
Our our voting power is already disenfranchised.

(02:31:48):
And the way. It's like these idiots are going
to vote. The way that a lot of people
said that, you know, that they do this, yeah, is each person
makes a list of games that they think should be in a category.
Yeah, they don't talk with each other.
They cross. They cross and see which ones
are in the list, right. And then they put them.
There bullshit. That's how they do, that's how
it's done. That's.
What they do they. They don't do.
Anything so they so she said that this is not a real award

(02:32:11):
show. No, it's not.
It's not done like a real award show you watch.
This for the trailer, that's what everybody watches.
And with that being said, what what trailers real fast What
what do you think? What do you want to see?
What do you think you're going to see?
Double my cry 6. That I think Xbox is going to
announce their my the two show you.

(02:32:34):
Say. No, I think they're going to
announce their new console OR/PCor whatever the hell they're
going to come out with. Whatever the the excess the the.
Will we see some more footage ofa Sega?
These Sega games that have been oh I forgot shown like 2 years
ago and Shinobi came out but nothing else.
I think they. Are I think it's time again you

(02:32:54):
know what to show what else you.Got something?
Anything as far as like predictions, Taxi, I think Crazy
Taxi and Jet Set are ready. I think they're both, yeah.
Ready to be shown. I don't know about everything
else, but those should be ready to be shown.
I mean, they could throw a they do, they could throw a freaking,
you know, pull the rug and and show us like a game that we
didn't think that was going to be out.

(02:33:14):
Sonic the Head. Hey, listen, give us.
Give us something for Sonic. Give us something.
Imagine they show eternal champions.
Yeah. No, they are working on it.
No, they are working are workingon it.
So. I mean it looks good.
Oh God. No champions.
Oh God, Lord. Maybe we'll get a Street Fighter
teaser trailer. Maybe.
You never know. Maybe never.
Maybe. Well, actually, they gave us a

(02:33:35):
mortal combat trailer, didn't they?
Like for Thanksgiving, I think. Did they?
Yeah, they gave us not, but theydelayed it until.
Next I'm saying the trailer. Yeah.
I would have thought they would have waited to show the people
who want to watch it. Wow.
Can we get you know it came out?Can we get a State of Decay
three finally? Can we get a release date?
Can we see what's going on with this fucking game already?
Why wasn't it on the Xbox showcase man?

(02:33:57):
Something from Microsoft doing this that I don't know.
How come that wasn't in the showcase?
I think they're going to show with Fable one day.
At the same exact time one day, 2035.
Not today, and it's coming out on PlayStation.
I mean, listen, if standard cakecomes out on PlayStation, I'll
give a fuck. This guy come out somewhere?
Yeah. I would like for maybe Valve to

(02:34:20):
give us some more information, maybe a price.
Price. That's the only thing.
That'd be cool, yeah. Or maybe a game release, who
knows what game, But it would becool if they did all that at the
award show. Yeah.
So maybe I would look forward tosomething like that.
But like I said, I don't know what's happening this year.
I know they look. For the.
