this shit out of Hell Divers too, and that's what we played
this past Sunday. That's right, Hell, divers too.
Always a great time with Hell divers too.
It really is. Yeah, Oh my God, it's mad fun.
Game gets terrifying sometimes. Man, I got addicted to this

(02:35):
game. Like I haven't in a long time
because I got up to level 21 from level.
What was it, 14? I got up to sound.
Like that? Before we left the stream. 15.
How long did it take you to get to advance all the way to 21?
I didn't take that much actuallybecause it it depends on the
difficulty that you that you play through to get your level

(02:58):
up faster. So I was just playing on the
hardest difficulty with random people and it was pretty damn
fun, man. It's pretty damn fun game.
It's funny as you start to unlock stuff, you're like, oh, I
wanna see that next. Yep.
Oh, I want yeah, next. What the fuck is that?
I got the jetpack recently. I said oh that shit is fire as
fuck. Yeah, they got you.
Yeah, I was. Like, oh, there we go.
I like the jetpack. What's what else they got?

(03:19):
Then you start looking at the inventory.
You're like, oh damn, I gotta save up for that.
I wanna buy that. And then you're like, wait, how
close am I to the exo suit? Yep, I want the exo suit.
That's I want the I want the Jeep or whatever the fucking the
next thing is the the that show was fire.
No Exo squad. Ohhh yeah.
Wait, what was that sounds familiar.
Remember exo squad? Was it an anime or?
It was it was a cartoon, it was an anime inspired, but ohh, OK,

(03:40):
they had that. They had those, like those full
suits. They were fighting against
aliens. It was it.
Was actually I felt familiar butI don't remember.
I feel like you're the colors ofyour character are reminiscent
of EXO. The yeah, that there was one.
The main guy had the blue EXO suit.
Yeah, yeah, now I gotta look at this shit now.
Now I gotta look it up 'cause they.
Had they had an exo squad game actually.
Exo squad, let me look this up. Squid I.

(04:02):
Remember Exo man of war? Oh.
Man, sorry. Yo, I know yo.
I remember Turbo and Salio. Loved that.
Game, yeah, we played the show, I don't think.
They loved it, I mean. That's no, we enjoyed it, but I
mean, it's one of those you can't go back to, yeah, EXO
squad. At the time, like Jedi power
battles, that's. Like what?

(04:22):
Was this show exactly the same? At the time it was good.
We'll just leave it there. EXO squad.
Yeah, that's crazy. One of those toys?
One of them. Yeah, me too.
I had that one. That's dope.
Yeah, that's the shit from holdovers.
I remember, I remember. Now mask you have exo.

will remember. We do, yeah.
Anyone else have anything to addto the Hell Divers discussion at
all? Yeah, make it 5.
Players yeah, I. Wish ball.

In I, I, I bought the jump pack and then I realized that's not

(05:04):
the same as the the jet pack. Yeah, there's a jump pack and a
no. The jet pack, I think you have
to, you have to have forgot whatlevel you have to be at.
Higher than that. I think it's 25.

Stop it, Sir. Yeah, literate bastard, I call
him. No, I call him the Illuminati.

I know, we know that. Yeah, you just gotta keep saying
it over. And over we understand.
We will. Yeah, when you have access to
all those spaceships and the walkers and stuff.
Like that, The joke's over. The joke's done, boy.
It's actually done. Yeah, yeah.
It's it's that's that's. That's that's fun, fun game.

(05:49):
Super to find some new stuff. I just hated this stage that was
just so fucked up. It's just it's felt, it really
felt like a survival horror on the stage because like when I
got. Killed.
You were getting chased there. Yeah, well yeah, that's the
thing because I, I died and I all my samples and all the shit
I got were were on the map and I'm like yo let me go back and
get there because nobody was around.
Yep, I went back there. That shit was surrounded.
I said I got chased out of there, 6 wing came back to come

(06:11):
get me. I said Nope, turn around and
run. Yep, I was getting chased by
this big buck who would not stoprunning.
I said he will not leave me alone.
That is. That's the thing about the game,
like the enemies just they follow you forever.
They just chase you. He chased me down the street.
So I saw him getting chased downthe I said no.
Yeah, yeah. Go back, go back.
I can't fight that thing right. Not by myself.

(06:32):
That shit was terrifying. I should have shot him with a
rocket like right over his shoulder.
He dope though. He had like the armor in the
front running. I was like, Nah, man, good.
That looks wow. It was like my hell.
Of a movie you know? Man.
He melts nicely with a freaking laser can to his ass.
I unlocked new difficulty levels.
Also I got up to new. Difficulty.

(06:52):
Levels yeah, I did no, I did I cuz you had in order in order to
we have it on challenging right that's the highest level that we
have right there we go yeah so II continue going and I played
online huh. How difficult does it get on
those? Difficulties, dude, I got.
I can't get. You have no idea, dude.
One hit. You know what's crazy?
It's not only that the, the, thethere's more enemies, but

(07:13):
there's new enemies that come out that I've never seen before.
Only until you get to like the higher difficulties.
One of them was like out this giant.
It was like a Godzilla. You're fighting basic Kaiju and
your regular, your regular weapons don't do anything.
So you gotta play with. A nuke.
But the people that you play with 'cause that playing with
people with like level 150 one 22150 freaking 96.

(07:37):
Oh, they love that. Like and they're and they have
all the way. They have all the shit That's
like a whole freaking arsenal intheir disposal.
They could just freaking. Yeah, I can only imagine if I
understood the game as much as they do.
It's ridiculous. But I I learned some some like
like some skills that they were doing.
Like one of the things that I never did was the kneeling, like
bending down and like getting onthe floor, like in a, like in a

(07:59):
sniper prone position. Yeah.
And you could crawl too and do that shit.
Amazing. Prone prawns.
Kind of sounded. Weird.
I love the confused faces chalk has right now.
So confused. Like what?
The hell. Not necessary.
Not necessary. I don't.

(08:19):
Understand that word? Jeez.
I was like. Oh man, no, but yeah.
Buy some stuff and we'll join you.
Like I want to play it now watching this shit.
I'm like dude. They almost got me.
They just had $5 to buy the nuclear bomb.
I was like, yo, I'm about to do that.

Oh, that game is dope. Is that guy Zhao as it goes out,

(09:01):
bubbles out, bubbles out. Wow.
Wow. Wow.
But yeah, it's a super fun game,Metro.
Havana. Yeah, Metro Havana, Vania.
Metro. Havana I was playing through the
first, Yeah, I think. I think I was playing on this
part. This is the first.
Yeah, dude, it's mad fun. Yep, you change between the sun

(09:25):
mask and the moon mask, and I think this game was first
presented at the Video Game Awards, I think. 23 two years
ago. Two years ago.
Yeah, it was. I bought.
It when it first came out. I didn't play it yet though.
It's it's a solid. Game I like how you narrative is
very. Cool.
I like how you can freeze water,but Chuck, there's probably

(09:45):
platforms here. Yeah, there are.
No, there are platforms. There there are definitely
platforms and I haven't minded them yet.
That'll give you the right tools.
Does Chuck be fronting? Man, he'd be fronting.
Just because I'm good doesn't mean I want to do it.
They give you the right tools, though.
Yeah, that that freaking yeah. That freezing the water or
whatever. That was dope.
I was like, that's cool. It's very cool.
Very, very. I bought that right when I

(10:06):
bought Prince of Persia so I waslike damn which one should I
play? No, definitely give this a.
Give this a run through. It's it's a.
Does look really good. Yeah.
It's on my radar. There you go, there's the water
right here. Yeah, and you can freeze.
It so you froze it and then you could just run right up.
That looks dope. It's pretty dope.
Yeah, it got the wall jump, got the double jump.
And I remember this, I, I think the developer he, he was, he

(10:28):
really was passionate about thisproject because his.
Dedicated to the Pops. Yeah, his father passed and it
was just like. That's how I bought it when it
first. Came out it was therapeutic for
him to to make the game and thisit's a solid solid.
Game it was. It was at the Game Awards I
believe. Yeah, if I remember correct.
This is it's, it's beautiful. It's available on everything

(10:49):
y'all. Yep.
Yeah, check it out. So you have no excuse, Charles
playing at Metroidvania. Man, what is going on?
I can't believe it. Next I'm gonna play a first
person shooter. Wow.
Wow. Well, if you like that, you
should play Castlevania Symphonyof the Night next.
Yeah. I forgot you.
That's like a that's like a mustplay, man.

(11:11):
That's a masterpiece dude. Makes me mad.
It's a masterpiece. I'm gonna get around to it, I
think. Let's see.
I'm not making any promises. That's odd.
You're gonna feel like, like how, why did I, why did I leave
this game for so long? Chuck?
You're gonna be like, why? Why have I not played this?
Chuck is waiting for a Halo Vania.

(11:31):
Halo Vania. Actually, that wouldn't be a bad
idea to make one. I mean a side scrolling Halo.
Nobody did not. They did Haloid.
Hey, Lloyd. Hey Lloyd, remember the
crossover on the YouTube when hewas fighting?
Oh yeah, when he was fighting. Samus.
Didn't Samus win that fight? I think.
She. She.
Oh, really? She.
Better easy fight though. That was way back, way back in
the day. Hey Lloyd, I like the name,

(11:51):
remember? The stick bigot fighting it was
like that but with Halo. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, Samus. Yeah, specs.
It's definitely worth playing. So if you're if you're
interested, check it out. It's if you have Zao play with
your with your game pass then you can you can play it for
free. Tales of Canzilla Zao.
I'm interested in this unless he's imitating a la carte and
Symphony of the Night all. Right.

(12:12):
What do you like that? So like so confused.
I gotta apologize to everybody out there you got.
I'm interested in this. You're confused.
What did you play? Jesus, yeah.
Oh, it's my turn. Was that your segue to tell us
what you played? No, that's how like kill the
energy and then start. So you get rid of the happy

(12:33):
energy and start with some bullshit.
No, it's just it's Mario Kart World is probably what I played
most. Still training to finish 4th.
I'm going to kill you guys next time.
It's going to, you know, I'm winning this time, guys.
I've learned some new techniques.
I've I know the race is a littlebit better.
I got some shortcuts going and some strategies.
It's going to happen, man. It's going to happen.
I just need to get gold and 150 in just two cups.

(12:57):
My cup runneth over, but I'm going to get it in those two
cups. It's going to happen.
You said my cup like. Yeah, you're going to get,
you're going to get like gold and gold in two cups.
But like, are you going to beat them when you play online?
That's the question. That's it'll happen.
That's how you know he's mad. I say spec, see, look at you.
So it was an Alicard reference. See, that's right.
He said that I'm interested in this.
What are we talking about right now?

(13:18):
We. Know that.
That's what it. Was yeah, we know, but it was
bad. Yeah.
Let's move on from that. Really.
Talk about the fucking game. You guys know about Mary?
Forgot why we're here. 60 frames, great game.
I'm kill you guys. That's all I got. 60 frames,
great game, What a review. Bro worst I've ever heard.
Frames great game, going to killyou guys in it.

(13:39):
Oh gosh, sorry. Watch next time.
Let's see. It's going to happen.
I also play a little Street Fighter 6 as well on the on the
switch to and yeah. The street fight at 60 frames.
Great game. It's 60 frames again and yeah,
I'm almost ready to do it onlinenow.
I had to get acclimated to the new buttons and I can't get the
six button control of the work. I can't.
I got the Genesis 1. The 8 bit oh doesn't work yet.

(14:01):
Do they say when Saget comes out?
August 5th, August 5th, 5th. OK, yes, and I'm going to get
Saget. Rest in peace, Bob Saget.
But I can't wait until Saget comes out and I get to use them,
and that's gonna be a great time.
I get to need people in the face.
Okay, that's all I got to say. Kev just said, like a whole
bunch of nothing. Yeah, that was like the biggest
waste of time. You just said nothing.

(14:23):
I can't believe you said Bob Saget.
Yeah. And it's Sagat.
Yeah, like I don't. 2 Two different pronouncements.
Appreciations. Every time I say Sagat, I think
of Bob Saget. It's messed up.
We know. Bob Sagat, we know.
This so all right, let's we'll move on.
All right, six. What'd you play, man?

(14:43):
Besides hell divers too, obviously.
Yeah, I finally beat Shadow 4 Door. 9.
Defeated the. Game really.
Really. Yeah.
How many hours? I don't know, man.
That's like 40 something 45 hours.
And I think the game was like 20hours, Yeah.
And how long to beat. So yeah.

(15:04):
And it's funny because after I beat the game and put you back
into the game and I played for an hour and a half after.
Because it's shit that you missed.
Damn it. No, no, I was just, I was just
bullshitting. I'll just run around beating
everything up and like, I didn'tknow that you you can reload the
enemies by going back to the tower.
Yeah. I cleared the whole area like
everyone was dead. And I was like, wait, there's no
more missions, What do I do now?And then I wore back to my, my,

(15:28):
the home tower or whatever. And they said new mission, new
mission, new mission, new. I was like, oh, so you got to,
you got to go back here and it reloads all the stuff.
So I was like, all right, because everyone was dead.
Everyone's on the floor dead. Everyone's just a head on the
floor. Damn.
Oh yeah. But yeah, I I got through it and
I should have put that extra hour and a half to the second
one. That's just what I say.

(15:49):
I mean, once you start the second one, it's going to be
hard to not continue playing it well.
I'm saying instead of wasting the time after I beat this,
yeah, I should have just jumped over to the second.
Yeah, but it I'm not going to talk about the end, but I see I
was kind of surprised it ended where it did.
And I was like, what the Oh, OK,all right.
Yep. So.

(16:10):
But the game, I can't say enoughhow much fun it is.
It's so much fun. I didn't.
You just run around and kill everyone?
Yep. Doesn't matter if you're
sneaking or not, you just run up.
I was running up in people's faces.
Sometimes you just want to smoke.
Well, before they get ready, youcan just stab me through Yep.
I was like, hey, you see me, butdoesn't matter.
Yep, Yep. And I was just running to
everybody. So yeah, game is dope.

(16:30):
Game is dope. I don't know if we're going to
jump right into the second one just yet because there is a role
player to get to and Chuck was playing.
I was interested in that since Ibought it a while ago.
Football Zao Zao. Yeah, Tales of Kinera, exactly.
Kunzu, Zika. Zao Zika.
Zao Zika. Zao, Zika.
Sir, Sir, stop. The title is very long.
Beanie Man. Yeah.

(16:51):
Just call it Zao Zao. Yes, I was going to play that,
but I don't know, man, I was. I've been waiting to play.
What the heck was it? It's a blue, blue fantasy.
Blue Stinger. Grand Blue.
Grand Blue Fantasy Relink. I bought that a while ago and
that game is amazing and I played it for a couple hours and
then I jumped into something else.

(17:11):
I'm getting back to that becauseI didn't, you know, having time
for role players, like I need toknow when I'm going to jump the
the. Toughest thing is to have time
for role. Players but dude, the game is so
tough. But I heard nothing but good
things about this game. Yeah, it looks so freaking dope,
and I was having fun with it too, but I got to like the first
dungeon. I was like, all right.
Isn't there a multiplayer mode or something?
I think there's an online component to it.

(17:33):
Yeah because it looks like multiplayer.
It was the size of the I remember seeing like 4 people
fighting a big fuck like that. It's.
Like Tales of Mana? I mean like Trials of Mana.
Sorry, no Tales of Tales of Abyss.
Motherfucker, Tales of Abyss, Trials of Mana.
Yeah. So I'll probably, I'll probably
get back into this pretty soon. So probably next week I'll talk
about. All right, she's smacking the

(17:55):
numbers out of his ass. Wow.
What about? What about you style?
Seafood has been conquered. No, you.
Guys are beating games. Jealous.
How'd you like? It's because they're not
playing. Yeah, because it's like 1 at a
time. I told you, man, Fury's the
hardest shit I've played. I.

(18:16):
Mean, yeah. Seafood's Don't get me wrong,
seafood's a problem. Seafood can be Seafood's a
problem. But it's a fun problem and you
you're forced to get ill, you'reforced to, you're forced to, to
have a, a certain way of playingand learning the the enemies
like they're, they're like what can take him out quick.
You have to be the character. Yeah, you really have to.

(18:39):
And like when I did beat it, like I ran back in and I played
the first stage without dying. Second stage I died once.
Third stage I died like once or twice just because I can but.
You do get better like you understand it.
Yeah, but The funny thing is howI beat the game, I was, I think
I started the last stage at age,I'm going to say like 33 or 30
something. And the last boss was whooping

(19:00):
my ass, like really whooping my ass.
And I was age 74 and I was at the second, second form of his
and I just dodged a bunch of shit and I counted one of his
punches in it. The prompt came up to do it like
a the takedown. And I was like, wait, did I just
fucking beat it? I said that don't fucking wait.

(19:21):
At the last 74 years old, I was like, let's go, let's not get.
Your last like. Yeah, but game's awesome, man.
I really, really enjoy it, even watching it now.
Yeah, I would definitely play itagain because the stages are
fun. Stages are fun, but there's, you
know, there is. I love those shortcuts I found.
Thank God. I wonder if Shenmue played like

(19:41):
this how much better it would. Be a lot better.
That would be a great game, thisgame of the year yeah Shenmue
should definitely steal everything Yeah, this game does
cuz that it works it works perfectly, but yeah no, I I
recommend it did. You get the good ending or the
bad one. I don't.
Don't know. I don't think, I don't think it
was a bad ending. OK, yeah, from, from, I don't

(20:03):
even know there's a bad ending, but I love the control scheme in
this game. Like fighting an old lady.
I love whooping this bitch's ass.
The control. Scheme.
Bro that's. A boss.
I think the control scheme is perfect in this game.
They like they they perfected it.
It makes sense. It's like it's intuitive.
It's awesome. There was one, there was one
enemy who I always say is a fucking piece of shit and he's

(20:26):
like, he's not even a boss. He's like one of the cheapest
enemies to fight because he's big and he attacks like he's
small and he could tackle you and he ignores your hits.
I was like 8 feet tall. He's like, wait, is he the guy
on the right? I think so, no.
He's. Not he's taller, he's taller
than that. It's in that area.
It's in that area definitely. But no, he just fucking cheats.

(20:49):
He like, I'll counter something,I'll hit him, ignores it,
punches right through what I'm doing.
I'm like, dude, what the fuck isthis?
This guy was a douche bag too. Yep, I had to throw.
You know, the coolest thing you could do in this game that I
love is like when you're using aweapon, chopping somebody up and
someones popping in from behind.You throw the weapon right in
their face blindly and then you start attacking.

(21:09):
I love doing that. I love doing it with the with
the bottles, whatever you pick up, just random anything.
Throw a brick in his fucking face.
Oh, I love that shit. He's awesome.
He got throat punched and he walked away from him.
Really makes you feel like a badass when you when you run
through this shit, man, It's awesome.
But yeah, I would say John Wick would work like this.

(21:31):
I would say Matrix would work like this.
Daredevil, they're not doing anything with the engine
anymore. That engine.
Yeah, they're not doing anything.
With that's a waste, Daredevil would work like that.
Daredevil would be sick. That would be because they do.
They do the fucking hallway fights just like the fucking
show. If they want to get paid, just
get that license and yeah. Just take the.

(21:52):
I'll eat that up. That's part that's perfect.
Pause. I actually found the game.
They're doing soccer right now, so they're making their money.
They're getting their money now.There's a game called Suit for
Hire. They say it's a John Wick
simulator. Oh, really?
Yeah, it's an indie game. Paul was just telling me about
that today. I downloaded it man, it's it's
pretty damn good. It's good.
It's pretty damn good. I only played like 5 seconds of

(22:14):
it though just to try it out andI'm like Oh my.
God does. Does he go?
Yeah. Oh man, it's like, it's like a
Max Payne, but it switches camera angles.
So it'll go like top down, that's then it'll switch right
there. Look at that.
But yeah, and then it does meleeengine.
Oh dude, it's crazy. It's awesome.
Oh, is this bullet time too? It's.
Like going on. It's a lot of shit man.

(22:36):
It's awesome though. Camera.
When he's getting oh. No, it's awesome.
This might be my next game, man.Yeah.
I'm thinking I'm back. This might be my next game,
Looks dope. Oh God I got shot.
Fucking it should be called JohnWick, damn it.
They can't. Legally.
Call it that, Sir. I know, right?
You should call it Wick John. Stop.

(22:56):
Saw that coming. No, I thought it a bad joke in
my head. Oh my.
God, yeah, same here. I was like you.
Showed restraint. Yeah, I was like a funny bad.
What's that like? I was.
Like that's a bad one. Kev's gonna say it.
Lo and behold, it's like we all thought it.
Yeah. And he said it.
We're like, we're like updated, like models.
You. Guys.
Saying the same shit, We're like, no, that's not gonna work,
Yeah. No, you guys thought it was.

(23:18):
You should be called Wick John. Wow, no.
So anyway, moving on. This man is obsolete.
But yeah, I got these jokes are definitely obsolete.
Yeah, I got to do 2 hours of Jedi Survivor.
What'd you? Think, oh, nice, just two hours.
And The funny thing is like the the frame rate was fucked up.
So it was like jittery. Yeah, but I was on a a gummy, so

(23:39):
I thought it was that, but it no, it wasn't because I went
right to the computer and I was like, oh, that's what it's
supposed to look like. OK, but Jesus, man, they the,
the, the lightsaber, the the mechanics are, it almost is like
it's like what, what the last game was, but they added like
something where if you block at the right time, it turns into
like a counter. Yep.
Yeah. I was like I said, what's that?

(24:00):
They impacted? I said, what is that?
That was amazing 'cause it's done like a like the movie.
It's like a yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, oh, that, that
was that felt good. That was very good.
They basically improved every aspect of the game and like from
the story and they gave you a lot of things available.
Like I went to the I got to the ship.
That's where I stopped 'cause I don't want to stop in the middle
of a mission. I and they I went to use the

(24:23):
customization for the lightsaber.
I made that the handle all gold.I made the fucking blade gold.
I know you. I know you love customization.
I love customization. I fucking, I went to the
changes, his jacket, his pants and all that shit and I was
like. Oh, there's a Jedi.
Role but I'm like I'm gonna waitfor more colors to for to do
that I'll do that later if it turns black there's a lot of
cool shit available and I'm likeall right now now they got me in

(24:46):
the Star Wars world right now OKI'm I'm and you could throw your
your lightsaber off the bat. I got the two blades and the the
double Saber for the for different stances, but I'm but
you can only hold do 2 at once, yeah.
You can only have two two fighting stances equipped at
once. I'm doing the the regular and
the double blaze. I can't wait till you get to the
mic drop moments. But Oh my God, now the key for

(25:10):
this. I just have to find like a
bracket of hours because I don'twant to do one hour here.
No, I want to like 6 hours. Sit down.
Yeah, with this fucking game, minimum 3 hours.
Yeah, yeah, minimum. I need definitely need to do
that. But no, it's I can tell it's
going to be fucking fun. I can't wait to.
I got to change the look at the graphic settings for that.

(25:31):
I forgot to do it. I was going to do it yesterday.
Yeah. I should have almost gave me a
seizure. Damn these pieces.
I had screen tearing or something, like it was like
jittery or it was like the cameraman was nervous.
Yeah, just like a like I'd move around.
It'd be like, it'd be like a little jerky here and there.
I'm like what the fuck man? That's a PlayStation One mode.

(25:54):
Everything's WAVY. Imagine it has this heroin,
they're doing this and. Shows those that.
Would be funny if they had that they.
Had PlayStation one looking horror games.
No, I'm saying like what if theyhad like a modern game and then
you could downgrade it to like it would look like it would be
so bad you wouldn't even know like where you are in the
location. Like wait, am I at?
Is that a wall? What the fuck is that?

(26:16):
It's so gross. No, but now this game's clearly
fucking dope. Can't wait to play through it.
I still gotta get through. The first one, man.
And it's a great game. That was.
Amazing. So awesome.
I'm. Like what I wasn't.
It's tough. First one was, the second one
is. And the first one had had a
crazy mic drop moment. And and and, and as I play it, I

(26:38):
get pissed. I'm like, there's no show of
this, the actor. Is.
Exactly show or. Movie dude the the fucking how
is it the script of the game is like that could be a movie on
its own. Why like why don't why why is it
not doing it? Why is there no show or like
crazy dude? Because it requires no effort.
It's so good. It's such a good story and such

(26:59):
a. They could just move it over.
He looks exactly like the guys still.
Like now we don't do it. We'll have someone else play
you. How?
Why? Too old to do it.
They would be a new guy. Just use CGI man, make him
younger. He's not that old, he's maybe in
his 30s. When they decide to do the
movie. He'll be old.

(27:20):
He'll be in the 60s. He'll be in the 60s.
Let's do it. The fuck you mean he has no
hair? He'll be Tom Cruise.
It'll be Tom. Wow, it'll.
Be like solo damn. Oh man, first of all, old ass
reference. Second said Solo on the podcast.
It was terrible. Man, and that was an instant
moment of silence for all of us.We all, you know, it's crazy.
We're like, he said it so fast. I couldn't even get to the

(27:42):
button. I was like, no, I was.
I registered that like oh that more.
Place they had to replace Han Solo 'cause he was too old.
That was the reference I was getting it.
Yo, I was thinking he's still about Mario Van Peebles.
Wow, wow. That's what I thought you were
talking referencing. No Han Solo the Solo.
Good solo movie, No, I thought. You were thinking the same
shake. Alright, at least we were.

(28:04):
We were thinking the same thing,girl, I thought solo.
No, I I thought he was the movieSolo.
The Star Wars movie, yes. Y'all thought he was talking
about Mario Van? Peebles yes, in the middle solo.
I thought that was a joke. So I thought he was just joke.
How? Real.
That is banana. I thought, really talk about how
old he's gonna be like. That was terrible.

(28:29):
Jesus, we guys were unhinged. Yep, exactly.
Now I got to see the damn. That's a generational joke.
He jumped back. An entire generation hit that
solo joke. Anytime I hear so, I do not
think Han Solo. I just don't.
I think. I just think of that terrible
Mario Van Peebles movie. This is the old ass trailer.

(28:53):
Oh. No, this is what I thought.
You meant dude solo? I mean, that's funny in his.
Own way. This movie was so bad.
Oh my God this movie was so bad.You mean he's not your exercise?
This came out at the same time as a Rumble in the Bronx.
Why I know this is because I remember seeing a an interview

(29:15):
where 96 he was on the Level 857podcast where you will only see
the trailer to solo. Yeah, it was 30 years.
Ago Mario Van Peebles. I guarantee that's
demonetization. I'm sorry, no one cares.
No one cares about that. Trying to make money off yeah.
Marvin, people's got to get paidsomehow.

(29:37):
Gross up, I'm gonna let y'all know.
It's like, I'm gonna take, I'm gonna take worlds.
He's over that podcast. Nope.
He's like y'all playing. He's like, can I just be a
guest? What just for?
Future reference If I'm talking about Star Wars and I say Solo,
I mean the Star Wars solo movie.It automatically pops up.
Yeah, same. You have to say Han.

(29:57):
You have to say Han before. If you say Han Solo, then it's
like, all right. Or the movie with the movie
called Solo with Han Solo. As soon as I hear the movie
Solo, I'm like, what? Marry that people, I don't know
why. Same here I thought the same
shit. I'm like wow I like some the
corny as fuck but it was bizarrety.

(30:17):
World bizarre on the shot. Watch it too dude.
I never saw that movie. I probably never.
Will I never saw that shit either.
Our listeners, they, they know what's up, man.
He. Said thanks to Star Wars, you'll
probably never be able to find that movie if.
You search for it, you'll never think of.
Download. They should make a Mandalorian
game. Actually it might be on Tubi.

(30:40):
Oh man, I got to search that nowI got to search.
Oh God. I want to see how bad it is,
yeah. I never saw it.
You never saw it. No, you might have to watch that
on. Page.
It's actually funny to watch. It's actually watching.
It's one of those so bad, it's good.
That might have to be. It it fits that category, so bad
is good. That's the first, first movie
we're watching on page. It's super cheesy.
It's super cheesy. You might see, you might see a

(31:02):
reaction to that. Oh, it's bad.
All right, so that's the games we.
Play Jesus. Christ.
That's the games we played, not the game that is definitely not.
Why wasn't there a game made outof the movies?
1996 there was. One actually.
Let's see if there was there. Wasn't there was.
I feel like there was a Nintendo1.
There was. Not.

(31:23):
There was never a game. Well, PlayStation One came out
in 95 S. Because I said it's on Fubo TV.
That shit is hilarious. Solo fuck it up because the TV,
that's what that Channel is. Solo the video game, not Star
Wars. But was the Star Wars Solo movie

(31:44):
bad? I have not seen it wasn't that
bad. I didn't think I saw it.
It was fine. They.
Trash it. And I was like, I bet you it's
not that bad. You know, they had like they're
the childish game being to win there.
How's it going to be bad? Wow.
Anyways, what are we doing next?It's we're going to announce.
We're going to announce we'll see in the game of the week.

(32:04):
Y'all OK? Oh yeah.
Oh Oh Heavy Burger. Released October 25th, 2018.
Developed by Lub Blub. Published by FTE Games.
Available on Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

(32:24):
Let me get some of that love, love.
I mean heavy burger. Yo girl, let me get some of
that. Love, love.
How do you describe this game? Love, love.
It's, well, it's like a Smash TVtype game.
It's a team based Smash TV kind of type.
Game Yeah, Day to East Party of games.
It's like a tribute to Day to East so.
It's yeah, every stage is a different day to East game.

(32:45):
Yeah, Burger time karate champ. Bad dudes.
It's a versus game. And from what I remember,
because we played it, we played this a while ago, you have to
get like the bag of money, right?
You got to give it to the president or some shit.
It's basically like a race to get to the end.
That should have me dying with the fucking Reagan at the end.
It's freaking great. It's a tug of war type, yeah.

(33:06):
I think it was yeah, like you golike, yeah, you're trying to
like one team's trying to get goto the right, the other one
trying to go to the left. And if you.
Have like you have to. Take the one screen at a time.
If you win, it's like each stageis like a round, right?
Yes, yeah, yeah. And there you go, this.
Heavy burger, not burger time. That's Heavy Burger.
That's a burger. Burger time is in the game,
though. Yeah, that's heavy.
That's Heavy Barrel right there,right?

(33:27):
Yep, Heavy Barrel. That's a Heavy Barrel stage I
believe. And burger time.
Burger time Burger time Stage first.
Stage they made and that's when they named the game.
I like the they have every stagehas like different hazards that
you have to like, avoid. And the pool table shit was
tough. Yeah, yeah.
That was tough to get around. It's like an arena shooter also
kind of it's like. An arena.
Shooter tug of war. It's very interesting and it's

(33:50):
very unique. It's like, it's not like
anything else. Yeah, 4 player party game
though. Yeah, super fun.
Especially if you you know you want something with a retro
flavor to it, you know? You're not cooking.
Yeah. If you want a four player party
game where you're not cooking. I like it.
When doesn't Karnov pop up sometimes?
I think so, yeah. It's that.
Easy, it has to show. Up.

(34:10):
Let me see if I can find the spot where Reagan this comes
out. Fast forward.
Save the ending. Save the ending.
Don't no. It's when you finish them out of
whatever the winner the then. They see that.
Where is it? I like how it switches the
arcades so they're pretty. That's pretty.
Oh, we got through that. That's yeah, they.
Oh, you have to do that roll at the end.
Like, yeah, I remember that shit.

(34:31):
Oh, this, yeah, that stage was rough.
Yeah, man. So you had to grab the bag of
money and then you had to go to the to your opponent's.
It's like capture the flag kind of.
Yeah, yeah. You should make.
You should. Make an action spy versus spy
like this. That would be fun.
To try and get through the house.
Spy versus Spy I. Remember that.
You know, Paul C said. I was busy working but FU Solo

(34:52):
was great. So we got some solo fans.
Wow, I. Mean there's gotta be something
somewhere. Hey, man.
He's like Mario fan people. Was an excellent action. *.
OK. Got a poster of him in your
room? Yep, I remember that I.
Remember that name in Radon Chong?
Oh man, I don't even know what that.

(35:12):
Is Radon Chong was in commando? She was the main.
She's a chick. Is in every she's.
In the 80s, yeah. She was like Lisa Bonet before
Lisa Bonet, pretty. Much.
Yeah, that's, that's a good reference there.
Where is that damn Reagan shit? It is Reagan, right?
That's the president. Well, it looks like him.
It's. Not actually.
It's not actually Reagan. But they they make him look

(35:34):
like. This it's 2018.
It's not actually him. Oh, Karnov, there he goes.
That's. Not true.
I think he. Goes Karnov.
He was like their biggest villain, but he.
Was a good no shit. At his own games.
Yeah, his own game. He was like the first boss of
bad dudes. Yep.
Yeah, that's right. And.
Then you got, I think this is the part where we were at the
end. You have to take it to the bank

(35:55):
at the top, right? Yeah, that's it.
This is at the end. Funny.
Fast forward. So like shooting each other?
If there we go, there we go, right here, the winner.
You shoot them, take the money. Fake ass.
That's Reagan. Fake ass Reagan.
It could be. It could be George Bush.
Yeah, that's old. That could be George Bush.

(36:17):
Senior, I was trapped. Yeah, we played this.
We off guard. This was four years ago.
Four years ago we played that. Well, that was that was a while
ago, but I still remember it being a pretty fun game.
Yeah. So if you got.
There you go, heavy burger. Got nostalgia for debit?
Sorry Dana E at its prime and you got to want to stretch that
freaking retro itch. You got a few friends, play some

(36:40):
tug of war. Versus is the gateway the game
to do it. Happy Burger.
Gets that official level 857 sealer quality, yes.
Oh, yeah, So that was good. There we go.
I know, I know. If you want to play a game.

(37:00):
All right, I was going to say, could we take a?
No, I'm not going to. I'm not ready for a break right
now. It depends on your bladder.
I'm good, I'm good. So is it time yet?
I don't know is it? What?
What is it? I like that.
I like that volume. I like the volume on that one.
Is it? No.

(37:23):
No, sorry. I take that back.
I take that back. I take that back.
You said yes. Ladies and gentlemen, it is time
for. The news.
I can't hit the high notes. Yo, he's.

(37:43):
Saying what the hell is wrong with you?
No problem. And he cracks up every time.
Yep. But he's so he's so he's still
going. He's pleased with himself.
Yeah, he's mad pleased with himself For what?
I'm going retro with this. Man, not dog, you're not.
You're just making this up as you go.

(38:04):
Let me know when you're ready. Metal Gear.
Metal Gear. Anyways.
News. Oh boy.
All right, here we go. Has Xbox become irrelevant this
generation? Yes, yes, yes, absolutely.
Next article. Yeah, let's answer the question.
Oh my God. 1000%. Why?
Why is that even a question? They lost their way, man.
All right, next. Well, let me, let me.

(38:26):
Put gears, let me put gears on Nintendo Switch F y'all.
I mean, I'm so disappointed in you right now.
Yeah. This article was on Game
Central. I wasn't a real big fan of this
article because it's like. It's an opinion piece man.
It's like a hit piece on a particular person and I don't
like it when people take a a face of a company and go after

(38:47):
the face like it's the only, like that's the person.
Controlling all this I hate. That and yes, people are mad
because Microsoft has gone through structure changes and
fired a lot of people. Microsoft in general, which is a
huge company, but yeah, wheneverthere's firings, people get mad.
But it's not all about Xbox, andobviously we know that Microsoft

(39:10):
is focusing on a different path for Xbox, and some people won't
like that. Chuck, how you feel?
I don't like it at all. Why is that even a question?
Why are we even talking about this right now?
I am I am upset. I am upset like how are you
going to put your one of your number one franchises on the
competitions console? Like what are you doing?

(39:32):
Like Chuck, are you buying the next Gen.
Xbox? No, fuck that.
They're getting hell. Divers, man, I don't care.
Sony's following their foot slips.
All right, I need to calm down. I'm gonna sit this one out.
Guys, yo, it's too much, too much.
About last week we talked about them, you know, canceling

(39:54):
perfect dark and Yikes. Like I mean listen, I don't know
what what goes on. With the creation of these games
and where they were in the process of doing so.
But if you're at 10 years and making a game or over 10 years
and you still don't have a game,it's probably time to cut it
loose. Regardless of how people feel
about the title, if it's not something that you were going to

(40:16):
make money off of in the next two years in this generation,
you're probably going to be like, yo just we wasted so much
money already you got to cut ties with.
It you guys ever seen this They're.
Not playing any game. You ever seen this meme of
Microsoft in Japan? Microsoft bin bows.
Wow. It's actually a real thing.

(40:38):
It's a building that they had that actually said that on the
fuck? My God, it's in Japan.
Wow. No luck.
I think it's cool there too. It's crazy.
Chalk. You got to go visit that man.
Yeah, that building. Maybe Microsoft?
Maybe we'll see. I'm listen, Microsoft is focused
on Game Pass. They focus on the rental service

(41:00):
and subscription service of the games.
Obviously, we know that's where they're going.
People still get mad. We know that's what they're
doing. These games that they like.
Listen, this generation, if you look at first party Microsoft
games, either they came out very, very, very unfinished, or
they came out and you didn't know they came out and you never

(41:22):
heard about them again. They're like a modern
blockbuster. It's a real bad bad like time
for them. It's.
Bad. Business model, they have no
identity. Like these titles that you
thought were going to come out probably had no idea.
Like they would no idea behind the game at all.
Yeah, at all. These weren't going to be good
games, regardless of what they look like.

(41:43):
And they know this because they play.
They see what's there. So yes, it's unfortunate that
they cancelled all this stuff, but I don't know what they're
doing as far as making first party games at Microsoft.
I know that they're turning themselves into Microsoft PC
division. And online, they don't know what
they're doing. They're moving, they know what
they're doing, but people don't like what they're doing.

(42:05):
I feel like, like Phil Spencer, right?
There's a rumor going around that he's like getting ready for
retirement, you know what I mean?
Like. Wasn't, but yeah.
I mean, he's. Doesn't matter.
CEOs say that shit all the time and if he wants to retire, they
lie. They fucking, you know.
If he wants to retire, let him retire.
Don't retire the Xbox. Well, that's what I feel like
he's doing. Like it's a, it's like an exit

(42:26):
strategy, like, you know? Fucking it up.
They already know the plan for Microsoft.
Yeah, if, if he's there or not. Someone's not going to walk and
be like, now make these games today.
What will happen when the that's?
Not going to happen this generation.
Well, they they put him in charge after What the Hell's
name? Don Mattrick messed up the the
the Xbox One that reveal. What about Mr. Booty?

(42:50):
Oh God, yeah, Mr. Booty. And for a while he he was doing
good for for Microsoft. He was helping out the Xbox
brand and getting the games on the system.
But now I feel like dude. And it started with Red Fall and
like all these other game companies.
In charge of finishing these games doesn't know how to,
right. They don't know what ideas they
have that make money. They don't know what they're

(43:11):
doing. Yeah, every game that they had
that maybe could have been a cool single player game or even
multiplayer, they don't know howto go past the finish line.
Yeah, and make money because it's either too late, like the
idea was already done, people are tired of it, or they or they
think that they have an idea that people like and it gets
killed in seconds. They went gung ho with trying to

(43:33):
acquire all these freaking studios just to let them go and
shut them down when they don't perform.
Like even when the game performs.
These. No, that's not.
It has nothing to do with this. We're talking about 10 years of
games. This is way before they bought
any of those companies, all right?
These are games that Microsoft has been working on for over a
decade. Yeah, like Fable.
These are what they can. State of Decay 3.
You know, these games are what have not.

(43:55):
We haven't heard about these games.
They have problems. They're not coming out for one
reason or another. Behind the scenes, we don't
know. But we're not talking about the
acquisitions that they bought. That's fine.
They they've been making games. Those are coming out.
That's what that's. That we know of.
The 9000 employees, though, wereacross different studios.
Nah, Nah, that's not even, that's Microsoft.
We haven't talked about their gaming division.

(44:16):
That's Microsoft in general because they go in AI.
That's that's another story completely.
Their gaming division is not making games.
That's that's the problem. And when they get rid of people
who aren't making the games, whether it's their decision or
not, something is wrong there. Trash.
But I don't know what they're doing.
But I have Game Pass. When the games come out, the

(44:37):
games are what's important. I don't know what's going on
there. Trash.
But yeah, this article is more about Phil Spencer being fired,
which I was like, I get out of here with that.
Do you want him to be fired? Listen, do you think you?
Should be fine. Whenever you blame one person
for the whole company. I know it's never good.
It's. It's not a good thing.
Yeah, I agree. I think that the entire

(44:58):
Microsoft gaming division or their infrastructure or whatever
they're going for, I don't know what they're doing, but it's
about games and whoever is behind all this, it's about
money for them. But he's the face of the
company, so yeah, it's unfortunate.
He's like a target base. He should wear a mask.
He should wear a mask with the chick.
Like now she's the face. Like whenever you put a face and

(45:19):
the company death threats happenand all the bull, all the
bullshit happen and people go and target these people until
their lives are miserable, regardless of if there's
thousands of people behind what's going on.
Yeah, yeah, that's all I have tosay about it.
Perfectly said, yes. But let us know what y'all feel
about Microsoft and what they'redoing either.

(45:42):
I mean, no one's, no one's with what they're doing.
No trash. And that's why they get the
Microsoft Bimbo. I can't.
I mean, they probably have better games than Microsoft
right now, right? Maybe by Michael.
Next article. I hate this.
Microsoft. Bimbo, Michael.

(46:03):
Soft. Bimbo.
That's a completely different. Product that sounds weird.
It's going to sell a lot more than what Microsoft is doing
next. Yeah, next is Microsoft news.
John. Oh.
God. It's all you.
Microsoft's dominating the news.Right.
Dominating. The fucking dominating.

(46:25):
You just made-up a new word, man.
Dominating. Dominating.
There you go. Microsoft exec tells devs laid
off because of AI to ask it for job advice.
I mean, that's addictive. Oh that's so fucked up man.
Whoever said that? I thought it was a joke.
No what? It was crazy.
What? That's for real.
He said you guys are mad AI is taking over.

(46:48):
Tell AI to write your resume to help you get the new job that's.
Dick fucked up, man. Dick.
That's like fuck you and. It wasn't Phil Spencer who said
that. Find that guy.
Yeah. Like, you shouldn't.
You shouldn't. You should have asked someone
next to you. That's whether you should tweet
that. That's fucking crazy.
And they would have said. Hell no.
If you have to ask somebody if it's OK to tweet something, you

(47:10):
shouldn't tweet it. That's.
Bad PR? Yeah, that's real bad.
That is terrible. If you have to ask anyone,
should I tweet this? No.
And usually I'll look at a tweetbe like, where were they going
with this? Like is this misunderstood?
Could this have been said wrong?Maybe he said a word wrong and
people would misconstruing it. Did they delete the the tweet?
No, I. Didn't even.
I didn't even look it. Up Because you know how
sometimes people say some fuckedup shit and they're like oh shit

(47:32):
and then they delete it but somebody always clips it or
whatever? It's too late.
If it was up for a minute, it's up there.
Yeah, that's true. But yeah, you don't say that
when 9000 people are losing their job.
You don't say maybe that AI likeAsk AII.
Mean that's that's tone deaf, man.
You might say that asshole thingto a person in the office and be
like, yo, they should ask them, like trying to be funny.

(47:53):
Maybe they should ask that AI toget them a job.
You know, you don't tweet that out to the people who just lost
their job. Yeah, that's foul.
Yeah. So whatever happens to this guy,
listen, I don't wish like, I don't, I don't know.
He's like, I'm like the. Bathroom, but that's a foul
thing to do. You got to wish him explosive

(48:13):
diarrhea. It's an.
Explosive. Diary Explosive.
Time non lethal explosive diarrhea It's it's it's messed
up it's it's. You're not going to die.
This is very. Inconvenient.
You're not going to die, it's just you should be miserable,
that's all your. Underwear is going to be trash,
yeah. That's a good deal.
That's awesome. I.
Don't want to go in a bad direction, it's.
A very disturbing behind the seasons look at how some of

(48:35):
these guys think when they do these mass layoffs.
He did it on LinkedIn, so that just goes to show you Jesus.
Yikes. It's public, man.
It's public. This office guy.
It's public shaming. Suits man, suits crazy dude.
I like this is funny. Oh damn, the next article's more
more Microsoft news. What the fuck is going on here?

(48:56):
How many articles we have? 4/4 Is it all Xbox?
No, no. Jesus Christ.
Three of them are though. 33 outof four.
What the fuck? It's a bad It's a bad week for
X. Oh my God, it's like when we
started talking about Switch toomuch.
Now we're talking about Xbox toomuch.
Well, there you go. It's a bad it's.
A gaming podcast. We have to kind of cover
something. All right, go ahead.

(49:17):
Listen, I didn't do it. Joke of the company.
Xbox fans are campling. Yes, they're cancelling Game
Pass descriptions and protests after mass layoffs and game
cancellations. Oh damn.
I mean. I get it.
Articles like this, I don't really give them much attention
whenever they say like you see anews thing that says this guy

(49:40):
tweeted this, I'm like dude, youmade a news report about this
guy tweeting like one person no one knows tweeted that this is
happening. But they got a blue check, so
you know, yeah, it's real. For real, I know, probably.
Not real, right? For this article, it says about
200 people in a subreddit are cancelling their subscription

(50:03):
out of the millions of people who have subscriptions to Game
pass. Exactly.
But yes, people are mad about what Microsoft is doing and
they're protesting against them by not having game.
Pass you mad bro, You mad. Are you guys going to be
cancelling your your game passes?
Yes, in protest, but no man. We're gamers.

(50:23):
This is about the games. If they have games that you want
to play, Game Pass is still worth it.
As they're doing these things, Ican understand how someone may
be fed up with them. And if they don't have games
that they want to play, then they're probably going to leave
and be like, I'm done with Microsoft, blah, blah, blah.
But these people are like, yeah,I'm not using Windows, I'm not

(50:43):
doing this and that. And I'm like.
I mean, if you have the console already, why the heck would you
get like, I don't get it. I don't know, that's a weird
protest be. Heard and seen, but like I said,
people mad that they cancelled these games that apparently
someone cared about. Like ever Wild was shown never
shown to be a game. They never said it was an actual

(51:05):
game. They said this is an idea we
might have had. That's it.
So people who are distraught about it not coming out, what
are you distraught over? It was not a game ever.
It was a title. Well, the fact that they wasted.
Their time on I. Mean.
Well, what if they're not just doing it because of the games,
they're doing it because, you know, people are getting fired
and they're doing. It no, no, they're not doing

(51:26):
this because of the game. I said if you are, if you're a
subscriber to the thing, it's about the game.
Oh, I see. OK.
Like, I'm not too interested in like what's going on behind the
scenes with money and how the company is making money.
And if you're an investor, I'm not an investor in the company.
I don't care how much they're making, what decisions they're
doing, if the games are there. If the games aren't there, I can

(51:48):
understand you leaving as a gamer because it's not worth
having. But if they had the games and
it's worth it and you're saving money, I don't see why you'd
leave. But I'm not disagreeing with
what these people are doing, if they feel that Microsoft is
doing wrong and if they feel that this can make them not do
wrong. But I don't think they're going
to rehire any of these people because this small margin of

(52:12):
people have left Game Pass. Nah. 200 people.
Nah. No, even if it was a million
people, they're going to not care.
This is Microsoft, they don't care about gaming division at
all. Their whole gaming division is
such a small piece of pie to Microsoft's money daily.
They make what they lose in gaming hourly.

(52:33):
Like they don't care about that.This is someone's hobby.
It's a giant monster. And they might just be
encouraged to Jack up the subscription price per month
because because they have less people.
I mean, that's inevitable, man. That's always going to.
That's always going to happen if.
They have less subscribers. When those games come out,
they're going to offer it and charge you more money, and it's
going to hurt everyone. Yeah.

(52:54):
And then everyone's not going tohave Game Pass at all.
That's the end of it. I'm just glad I don't.
The layoffs are foul though. Man, it's not right.
Like redirect them to another part of the company, to another
studio, but just to just lay them off like this companies.
Doing what they do, companies dothis.

(53:14):
It's. Whether you like it or not, they
get. AI man, AI is the problem.
And they're going to write theirresumes with that AI?
Yeah. Well, the AI's are going to make
the game. Terrible.
Write resumes with the. AI I'm going to it's still such
a I don't know. I don't know if I want to be
around when like the first game I was like developed 100% by AI.
Awesome. I don't know if I want to be

(53:37):
alive when that happens. Man, technology happens.
Technology has happened. People don't write with #2
pencils and script anymore. Technology happens.
So regardless of how you use it.It's not a good thing.
There's always been good and badways that use technology.
But if it eliminates talent and creativity, that's the problem.
No, I don't. That's the problem.
That's that's that's when it gets to a point where there

(53:59):
needs to be something to fix this because.
But there's always a good and a bad.
There's always a good and a bad.But that there is, however,
that's just bad. That's not.
Good, that particular. That's bad.
Yeah, that's bad, but that's where it's gonna go.
People are committing suicide, jumping out of windows, working
too long. Yep.
And then for making code that takes too long if they use AI to
help them with that and maybe get 8 hours of sleep and see

(54:21):
their children and blood. Like all this stuff.
Like I said, good and bad on each side.
To compliment the you know, cuz I look, I use AI, right?
I use AI to, to help me with thesetting stuff like art
artistically also I use AI, but I don't use it like 100%.
Well, there's I use it as a toollike like there's a balance.
You mean as it, as it should be used?
Well, we're talking about human beings.

(54:42):
Yeah, human beings abuse everything.
And they will. And they will.
And they're gonna try to get they'll.
Never 100% do. It they they always they always
will try to do some evil shit with it.
And I don't trust human beings when it comes to AI.
And it by the by the time, like you can go against it, by the
time it's like, oh, we start to notice, oh, no, this is going
too far. It'll be too fucking light.

(55:03):
Yeah. That's, that's a problem with
Silicon Valley. They just, they, they do what
they're going to do. And then they ask questions
later. And they, they were, they don't,
they don't see like 20 years from now, what's, what's the
effect that it's going to happen.
You know, like they don't do that.
They just. Trying to create Ultron.
It's just, it's like, oh, for real.
It's a giant experiment. They just like, all right, let's
try this. And then it becomes successful

(55:24):
and it becomes popular. And then it's like, oh shit, we
can't control it now. Yeah, they create a monster and
there's no laws or anything likethat.
And then they have to create legislation for it.
It's too late. But things with digital, they
had to make new laws. They had to do all the same
stuff. Oh yeah, yeah.
And people said when things go digital, we're going to lose
creativity and artists and, but.And they have.

(55:44):
We have. It's the artists and creativity
who use that digital technology to do what they were doing back
in the day. Like there's always a balance.
As time goes on, they're going to, technology's going to do
this and it's going to try to weed out people like us.
And then the youngins will be born into it.
So they won't even have to learnhow to draw.
They won't have to be that creative because the tools will

(56:04):
already be doing that. So they're just waiting for us
to die off so we don't. They don't have to worry about
that shit anymore. Look at it this way, the
development of games is going onpast five years, past 10 years.
If AI helps that be 3 years, regardless of how you're using
it, and you're getting differentideas and different people jobs

(56:26):
and different things instead of wasting 10 years of someone's
life and then cancelling something.
Yeah, like there's ways to do this The.
Problem is, the problem is the corporations don't.
I know, but I'm not the. Corporations don't do that.
They would rather just replace they do it humans for and just
have AIA 100%. If they're spending ten years
making something, at least they have a job for 10 years.

(56:46):
You know what I'm saying? It's like you make it in three
and they don't need you no more.It's like, come.
On I thought my creativity wise yeah yeah see the same thing
slowly for 10 years or not see anything.
In a perfect world, yes, that would work 100%.
I'm all for that. However, corporations don't.
We know corporations care. They're like, no, we want to,
oh, you could get AI can do it in two seconds.
Yeah, fuck it. Fire, fire everybody, fire the

(57:08):
whole team like they would. They're going to do that.
There's always soul. And artistic work, there is
always soul. AI does not do that.
Well, it does. Not yet.
Yeah, It takes their soul. Yeah, it won't do it.
It will get to a point where it's going to be
indistinguishable from a human being.
It's going to copy someone else's work.

(57:29):
It can't make new work. Wait till AI, wait till I'm
gonna map your fucking brain. Then when AGI happens.
That's the E launch ship. When AGI happens right?
When it happens, when AI is to the point where it's like
smarter than us, it will happen.Yes, already.
Yeah, but the planet, the planetwill explode by then.
So I mean, I wait, Hopefully I'mout of there.

(57:50):
It's just, it's like I said before, yeah, before that.
I hope I'm not alive. I want to be out of here before
that same dude like I said. There's always getting bad.
I look at it the same way as a zombie apocalypse.
Yo, I'm dead. I'm the first one to go.
That should happen. I don't want to live in the
world there's. Still there's there's still
people who want to use records instead of MP.
Yeah, it's a novelty though. But I mean, people we like that

(58:11):
ruined it. They did it ruined stop
mainstream. You don't see records in the
fucking Best Buy. Yeah, you do.
You do. Yeah.
Oh, really? No.
These big how? Big is the section.
It's not huge. It's not huge, no, but.
Anything now? All the music sections, but
there's nothing but. There is a store in in the in
Roosevelt Field mall that has a giant vinyl section like.

(58:35):
Really. Yeah, just a huge rack of
vinyls. It's crazy.
I'm sure the argument was there.I mean, I'm not gonna talk about
this all day, but I'm sure the argument was there when cell
phones first came out and someone was calling on a Rotary
phone and they're like, that's gonna take off.
I mean, it did. Listen, that's bad, and good
there is. It took over.
Everybody's an idea, everyone's using the phones casually, and

(58:55):
that happened right away. And no one's it makes it more
bad. And now no one's communicating
with each other out in public. Now we're all, we're all
addicted to our phones. Great.
Job. Yeah, we're all addicted to our
phones. How great is that?
Your phone. I could order food right now,
which is great. Yeah, but then again, I don't
want to go out and speak to people.
Yeah, great. Wait till Uber is 100% self

(59:17):
driving and AI takes over all the people that tell you it's
going to happen. They spend billions, Uber and
Lyft, they spent billions of dollars like to do research to
get AI to do self driving, aren't they to get rid of the
picking? People experimenting.
On they have been. Yeah, they have been for years.
Self real. Self stop traffic.
Self driving is great until the car kidnaps you.

(59:38):
Well, moving now, let's let's sothe next the last article y'all.
Sure about. Thanks.
For helping us move. Yeah, lucky.
That was actually a good. I do want to say one one last
thing though about what you weresaying.
Sakhari actually was talking very positive about AI.
He said he liked to see more AI in video games to help the
development go fast. He wants someone to take over
for him because an executive saying that they like AI.

(59:59):
Oh wow, he's like Nintendo works, leads to the bone.
You need to get out of here. I can't do Smash Brothers all
the fucking time. Yeah.
Copy my fucking brain. Yeah, and exactly.
They have a different outlook onhow to use it.
Like I said, we could all say it's going to take over and
control everyone. That's the easy way.
Sacrifice rich people, I've beensaying save me for years and no
one cares. I can leave my room now.

(01:00:20):
I can. I can actually go out and.
Do something. I can see my family now.
Well, I mean, if AI, if AI is going to help develop like a
Centurions game, a Visionaries game and a Thundercats game, I
mean. You can make it yourself now,
yeah. Yeah.
And then, yeah. And then it'll put you in the
game and you'll be like, what the hell, Get Me Out.
And I have a purple cake. It'll.

(01:00:40):
Be crazy, it'll be crazy. I'll be the final boss.
No, no, no. Like you'll be physically in the
game. Like they'll take your
consciousness. And put it on the side.
That AI can write your resume toget the job that makes those
games. That's crazy.
And then they could put you in as a mid.
Boss and then you won't get hired.
Correct? Correct.
That final boss nonsense. Main boss all day.
I don't know why you're hating. Move on now.

(01:01:01):
If they become stronger, but it may become a final.
If everybody has AI to to write the freaking how the hell like
businesses aren't gonna they're gonna know that so you used AI.
So what the hell next topic, goddamnit.
Next topic, goddamnit. So you're.
Gonna know this when a person writes it.
There you go, that's what. It is and then you can not hire
them. No, they don't know.
That's. Why this was?

(01:01:21):
Funny, this isn't a soulless robot.
I like this guy. He's soulless robot.
Exactly. I like him just right.
You could hire me and that's it.When you read an article, you
can tell. I could tell when I'm ready when
I freaking read an e-mail that'sAI generated.
Actually. I was like, no man, this is just
no. There you go.
All right. No, it's the.
Last one. That's now though.
Jeez, that should have been the last.
One switch and two, it's fast. It's fast switch to as a massive

(01:01:43):
hit. So where's all the conversation
about it? Right here.
That's it. Level 857.
Come on, why? Why are we surprised what kind
of article is like? I.
Don't understand. Like we knew this this, we knew
this console was going to be a hit like.
Well, no. People are confused.
That sense, it's sold so much. How come there's nothing but

(01:02:05):
negativity to talk about? Because people are trying to get
clicks. This shit's on.
It's not even a month old. And that's just the one thing
about like negativity. They act like there's so many
people, right? It's a big bunch of people.
It's actually the same. Group.
It's a, it's a solid group of balls.
Yeah. They just hate on everything.
And then, you know, when the positive shit comes out, it's

(01:02:25):
like, all right, where'd it go? Well, yeah, because there's more
people excited for it than they were that they were going to be
upset about the price and all that shit.
Like, come on. Obviously if you like the Switch
one, you're gonna like the Switch too.
It's a fucking upgraded, souped up, steroid it out Switch.
Well, wait till Donkey Kong comes out in like it's.
A week. It's been a month.
It's only been a month. Yeah.
People have talked about Mario, Mario Kart World, You talked

(01:02:47):
about Cyberpunk, they melt everything they could have
possibly done in a week and theywant more and they're like
Nintendo. How come you're not announcing
new stuff? How come we're not getting new
games? How come we don't know what's
happening after freaking donkey comments?
How come we don't have another direct?
How come we can't post anything today?
I need to know the news and that's what's wrong with the

(01:03:11):
Internet right now. How about you use that time and
play a game? No, because they're using the
time to say when the next directis going to happen because they
have nothing to talk about. Or nothing to play.
They have stuff to play, but they don't.
They're not, They don't. They're not, no.
They're not. They're really not game.
They're acting like it's a gaming drought.
Yeah, like, dude, really? They're like, come on, man.
Three games a year. But when the fuck you?

(01:03:31):
Talking about the company, just the company already said what
they're doing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they
said and not A and and fall, they're going to have another
rollout. That's the purpose of it, to
show you. More of the stuff we're working.
On yeah, it's called a Nintendo Direct yeah, that's the purpose
of it what they do that's the purpose of it but.
They're saying, oh, we want it this week, we want it today, we
want to know what's going on. I bet you do.

(01:03:51):
I bet you do too bad and it's like 10 people that but you
know. But you know what?
Sometimes in life you can't get what you want when you want it.
But them talking about it is what people are clicking on.
Yeah, that's what they want people to know.
They're like, how come we don't have a direct click on it to
find out? Because we don't have one.
And I'm like. Get a job.
Cuz you got to sit down, shut up, and wait.

(01:04:13):
Wait two weeks? Literally twoweeks.com comes
out? Yeah, what happens
thedayafter.com comes out. Everybody's talking.
What's next? No, no.
What's next? What's next?
Yeah. I want to know what's next.
Of course. What's after?
It's the, it's the, it's the Smash Brothers character thing
all over again. Yeah.
Oh, they announced this person. Oh, it's awesome.
Who's next? How come I didn't get this guy?

(01:04:33):
Who's next? Oh, this person.
That's awesome. Oh, Sora.
Who's next? I can't believe this person.
You're never happy. No, you're now.
You're never gonna be happy because it's over saturated.
You're never happy. Never happy.
There's planning that goes on. There's timing, yeah, of
announcements. And people working, people
working on stuff. You want a direct.
You have to have stuff to show. You can't make a direct out of

(01:04:53):
nothing. And you know what?
You know how many people it takes to to make a direct?
Yeah, and you know how many people working on the games that
are in the direct, But you know who cares about.
That right, but if they. Show someone that's not
finished, it looks bad. Oh, then.
Because they wanted it early. Then they have something to
talk. About yeah, I can't believe they
would release this. It was so early.
Yeah, but you complain about it not coming out, but still shut

(01:05:14):
the fuck up. Well, it's rage baiting
basically. That's it's a business tactic.
It's how they, you know, they make these stupid titles.
That's why. And there's a.
Conversation. Expects it.
They need an old school grandma.You will eat when the food is
ready. Exactly.
Exactly. A couple of issues that the
author of that article was bringing up also is just like

(01:05:36):
the switch to sold about 5 million copies, 5 million units
already. To let people be happy.
And it's like it took the PlayStation 5 double the amount
of time to even get that many. So just like, and no one's
really like raving about it. And if the guy's like, like, I
think the, the reason why no one's really talking about the
Switch to success is because, you know, you got Mario Kart

(01:05:57):
World, which was the main launchtitle.
And Mario Kart's kind of been like a, an like a expected
staple of a Nintendo, you know, console gameplay experience.
So even though Mario Kart World is newer than Mario Kart 8, it's
still very it's feels very familiar.
So I think that that was part ofthe reason also that they were
saying also the switch to UI looks pretty much almost

(01:06:20):
identical to the switch ones UI.So it was just like it was very
seamless on how you transfer your game.
It, it feels like a continuationof that experience so that maybe
people didn't go crazy over because it's, you know.
I mean in a different interface,so UI would have been cool.
Oh yeah, like look at that statement by bizarre.
Hate to say this but Sora sucks and Smash.

(01:06:42):
That's your boy. I've been telling you about him
man. I've been saying that your boy
from Kingdom Hearts is SUS. Wow.
When when Sony came out, the PlayStation Vine and the Xbox
came out, it was during the pandemic and it seemed like it
was way too early for them to release this stuff and they

(01:07:05):
didn't like they were being heldhostage like the the systems
were being bought and held and being charged 700 to 900.
Dollars or. More.
Yeah, they took over and they didn't have enough systems for
people to actually even buy. So to say that oh, Nintendo's
doing such, so much better than they did, yes, they had the
chance to make more and have it available for people to buy.

(01:07:27):
These other these other systems sold out completely.
They just didn't have enough to make those sales count as much
as Nintendo did right now, yeah.So I still think that we're sold
left. That's why people are going
crazy about the sales of the system, because people are just
playing the games and having funand shutting up about.
It 6 That's a hot take. But it's like it's not an Xbox.

(01:07:50):
No one expected it to fail. You know what I mean?
Like no one expected to switch to fail.
So like that's why that's why they're not ranting and raving
about it. They're like, oh, the Switch
sold 5 million units. Yeah, we did No shit.
It like. No shit, Same as.
I'm gonna go back to playing Mario Kart World now.
Yeah, like, like Turbo said, it's a big deal that they put.
Mario Kart World with it. That's that's a seller that is

(01:08:13):
a. You have to have it, yeah.
But people are saying they should have had Donkey Kong come
out with it. And I was like, Nintendo's like,
stop, we don't care about that. Doesn't matter.
We sold 5 million. We sold. 5 million, yeah.
Exactly Mario Kart system seller.
We didn't make a mistake. Why not?
Yeah, that's that's so stupid. It's like, what are these people
talking about? You don't know what you're
doing. You didn't sell 5 million units
like shut. Up again, it's it's rage

(01:08:35):
baiting. It's just a way to get you to
freaking click. That's always get a get
attention. That's you know how many times
in the video someone will say something positive in the video,
but the thumbnail will be negative and because negativity
emotions, that's it. What the fuck?
You mean this movie sucks? No, I actually like the movie,
so you got me. Yeah, you got me.

(01:08:55):
That's how they do. And they got the click.
And that's what. And we got caught too 'cause we.
Were talking about yeah, they fooled it.
And they get that page. Negativity is what that's what
people feed off of and it's thatsick.
A thumbnail you make nothing. But you sure though we're?
Promoting this shit. Damn it, as a switch to fan I do
think that not enough people aretalking about how great the 5

(01:09:16):
million is in one freaking monthis the fastest selling console
in history. Yo, he'd be looking at you first
of all. First of all, this is history.
You picked this article, Turbo. Yeah.
And And of course, yeah, you did.
Yeah. Kev just looks for, he looks for
reasons to get on his knees. That's it.
That's. It the newer generations have
sold out of everything they've made.

(01:09:38):
That's what I'm talking about. They have sold out of every
system that they have been able to produce.
Yeah. So the fact that Nintendo had a
shit load, they they were makingthese for like 2 years.
They were just stacking up switches to sell and they had
enough to sell. They already would have sold
out. Doesn't matter if Sony came out
tomorrow, they would sell out. No, no, not that.

(01:09:59):
Yo. I'm surprised.
Not that price. I'm surprised Turbo doesn't
have. That price.
But that price? Sony's more.
Score 99 I. Just totally ignore it.
What the hell I'm saying, are wein a podcast or not?
What's going on? Hear what you're saying.
So I'm sitting here like he's. Saying Jay.
Jay's saying blasphemy. Same blasphemy.
He's saying blasphemy. $700 and sold out.

(01:10:21):
So is this topic done? I was going to say I'm
surprised. I'm surprised Turbo doesn't have
lock draw with how much DB he's got.
Knee pads. On Oh, he does.
I'm just spitting facts and people don't like the truth,
that's all. It's spitting out you.
Ain't spitting anything out. It's a.
Hand held console. Yeah, you swallowed.
All man held con you're. Spitting.

(01:10:41):
No, you swallowed. Man's appeals.
Swallowing. All that swallowing.
If there were more PS fives thatlaunched, no, it wouldn't have
sold because people couldn't afford that show.
Jargling, now we got to get to the main top.
Yeah, now we got to get to the main taxes.
Break we going to the main top. We got to take a quick break.
Water. Crazy.

(01:11:03):
Doesn't understand that there was 0 to buy.
Look, there was short though there was short with the with
the stocks. There were no chips to make the
system. I understand they had a chip
shortage and stuff like that, but what happened?
What happened? They eventually caught up and
now you see freaking PS Fives sitting in stores.
Ain't no one buying them right now.
Same thing is freaking the Xbox Series.

(01:11:23):
Like same. Thing is going to happen to the
Nintendo. It's going to understand is
going to happen to Nintendo. They're not going to keep
selling out. They're not going to.
Sell them by saying that switching I catch up to both of
them know. People, the people who love
Nintendo, have bought the systemalready.
It's going to slow down. It will.
Moms and pops are not going to buy the system for their little
kid. Not like the Switch 1.
Look, they're going to take some, they're going to take some

(01:11:45):
of the college fund money. 9 to the offers a switch too late.
They are not going to purchase this for their little kids.
Multiple in the same house? Hell no.
We'll see what happens. We'll see.
We'll see what. Will be available in stores.
I think I think the the appeal of the switch to even though
it's expensive, it's at least something could hold in your
hand, something you could blast to the freaking screen when you

(01:12:06):
put in the dock. It's a hits different.
The whole switch, as you understand why we didn't talk
about the switch breaking in thenews, because that's fake news.
Switch braking, Yeah, switch braking is not.
Like banning a system is not braking a system.
Banning your system from going online for stealing is not

(01:12:27):
braking your system. Because Nintendo felt like they
wanted to. The person who's buying and not
doing anything weird with their system, they're not going to be
like, well, let's just break hissystem.
That's not that's not what they're doing.
They're doing what every system that's been able to go online
has always had that you sign a document or read in the
beginning, say I read this, it'sbeen in that documentation since

(01:12:52):
the Xbox 360 and everybody's madnow because Nintendo said we can
mess up your system. We're going online if you're
doing something shady. And people are like, no, I can
steal games if I want, and I cango online and I can go online
and play just like I wanted to because I bought the system.
That's what they're saying. And people act like that's not
wrong and. Microsoft's been doing that

(01:13:13):
since 360. Anything that goes online.
That has been doing that, yeah, everything.
Yep. For real, For real.

Man, this is crazy, yo. It's like he's insane.
Sipping. Deriding.
Like guys don't understand. Too much, man, it's too much.
Terrible. I don't understand the
negativity cells. Not this, not this.
Glossing over everything. Kevin's like yo, I love the
system so much but I suck at Mario.

(01:15:19):
Kart. Yeah, yeah.
Terrible. You said you want to return the
system, That's how bad you were losing.
Damn we'll. See what happens next.
Time we'll see what happens nexttime they can.
They can't repeat. 4th place. 4th place all day they.
Can't repeat it. He's recorded.
Damn. We'll see what happens.
Oh, shit, I need my phone for this list.
Imagine they had a no. Never mind.

(01:15:41):
I'm not going to say it. OK, I'll save it for after the
podcast. All right, let me look.
It's not appropriate. All right, I'm hitting you with
the main topic, y'all. I had to cancel games and games
that might join them. Oh man.
So let's talk about it, man. Microsoft has cancelled
everything. So let's talk about games that
have been cancelled that we werelooking forward to.

(01:16:03):
Yeah, so it's either Al or me starting.
I'll start. Ham, Ham, Ham.
Wonder Woman. That's on mine.
Bro that was on mine too. Shit.
How the hell can they cancel Walmart?
They. Do come on, man.
How could you slap? How could she slap?

(01:16:24):
How could she slap? No, but I know that reference.
It's the worst that reference. I'll give she slap.
I'm. Sorry, put all those all those
white Knights though, man, that pissed me off.
I know everybody white knighted for I'm like, yo, that was come

(01:16:45):
on, man. But yes, but yeah, Wonder Woman,
yeah, that that's that's that was very upsetting because not
only did I want to play a WonderWoman game is because the that
had the nemesis system, that wassupposed to have the nemesis
system and it died with it and that's.
Fucked up. That is so fucked up.
So upsetting, so upsetting, man,the nemesis system I was excited

(01:17:09):
for because that that mechanic has been dormant for years, you
know, and it stayed with the with Shadow of War.
Does it look like a single player action game?
Yep. And when you?
Mechanic in. It and and I oh, who the fuck is
that? When you when you get to Shadow
of War sticks and you see how they perfect they like they
perfected the nemesis system andlike Shadow of Mordor was like a

(01:17:31):
an introduction to it, but they perfected it in the sequel.
Don't think 10 years after what they could have done and.
Oh my God, dude. And they said what?
The way this game was looking, they were like it was looking
really good. And the fact that all we got was
a thing mentioned that, it's like, dude, come on man.
But they were bar into it, like getting this thing out, it's
fucked. It's not like it was just
thought of. Exactly.

(01:17:52):
It's such oh God it fucking pisses me off.
They just pulled the plug man. I forgot all about it actually.
No, that was on my, I had to go deep into the archives to find
like, I have all this stuff on my deep, deep into some anger,
yeah. Hatred, yeah.
But yeah, that was a that was a big one for me, man.
The darkness. Wonder Woman got me.
I was baited it. Scale down.

(01:18:14):
That's not my, that was from a minute ago.
Yeah, that's a that's a classic.That wouldn't piss me off
because they had like 15 or 20. They had 20 minutes of gameplay.
They had Dragons. Bro it looked good they had.
Microsoft. Both All right, Yes.
Yeah. Well, that was by Platinum.
Yeah, yeah. Oh God, that was a Platinum
game. Yes.
Oh God, You know that soundtrackwould have been sick.

(01:18:34):
They had Dragons. And they had Dragons.
They had. It was like a double May cry
with Dragons. It wasn't odd concept if you
think about it. Dude had headphones on and a
dragon. But I mean, wherever they were
going with it, I guess they didn't know.
Oh I'm sorry, I said 15 minute nose, 5 minutes of actual
gameplay. They did have stuff to show,
yeah. It's crazy out there we go.

(01:18:56):
It's crazy, man. 5 minutes of gameplay.
Does this look like it's not? It's like it looks like it's.
Done well, this is Devil May Cryand Monster.
Yeah, no, that's exactly what itlooks like.
Don't. That's where it went.
But no, Microsoft, I heard wanted to make this like online.
They want to make this like kindof like live service.
They're like and that's why we have a stupid idea.
Let's make it live service. Yeah, and.

(01:19:17):
How to kill a game. Let's I really want to do it.
Let's ruin it. Oh wait, let's cancel it.
So that was the reason. Platinum didn't make it,
especially at that time. Well, yeah.
Well, the only time they did it was Babble on.
The way later and they were forced to do that too and look
what happened. Yeah, you know, I like the
headphones. Dude, I love this fucking game.
It reminds me of game looks. Freaking.
Dope. I'm pretty sure they had an idea

(01:19:38):
where they were going, like withnew technology and old and old
stuff. They're mixing both, yeah.
They had a dragon well. Look, they had a dragon.
It looks kind of like a Final Fantasy acknowledgement look at.
It it's freaking dope, man. They had a goddamn dragon.
I'm getting, yeah, definitely getting Devil May Cry, Final
Fantasy, Monster Hunter. Oh my God.
Yeah. Looks awesome, man.
Looks cool. It's never going to go.

(01:20:02):
We're never going to see it. Jesus, God, man.
Call it something else. Release the game, call it
something else. They did.
They called it cancelled. They called it Final Fantasy 16.
Cancel bound. Cancel.
Cancel bound damn fucked up. This man said.
That looked great too. That was a tough, such a
freaking disappointing. If they had it, if you jump on

(01:20:22):
the dragon turns and a pants of dragon that would.
Have been Oh God. Oh God, that would have been
crazy. Oh, God, thank God they didn't
show that. If they showed that, I'd be
like, yeah, I would have been like, this.
Someone's gotta get fired. I'd be like, clinically
depressed man to go to see a therapist.
Like, yeah. And they said they wanted to
still bring it out if if anyone wanted to.
They still don't. Tease me like that, man.

(01:20:43):
Don't, don't tease me like that.It's been years, dude.
It's been a long time. Don't.
Fucking do it to me. I'm sure you're sure you've seen
this game released and broken bits and pieces in other games.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. This is a depressing topic, man,
and I'm the one that freaking. I was looking out on my list and
I'm like, I'm mad. I'm like, I'm legit looking at
this pissed off. This is depressing.

(01:21:04):
All right, What you got Chalk? Speaking of depressed, I said I.
Said scale bound. Oh, you were OK, You said scale
bound. Oh yeah, you said Wonder Woman.
We got Wonder Woman in scale bound.
You said cancelled woman. I'm Jesus Christ.
I'm going to go a little obscure.
Earthbound 64. That was the thing.
Earth Battle 64 was it the game that no, that was.
I didn't even know. It was originally going to be

(01:21:24):
Mother 3 for the N64 but then they cancelled that.
Product. Did they have any footage or
anything or no? I think there was a little
footage on it. Wasn't it supposed to be for the
64 disk drive? I'm not sure I'm pretty.
Sure, it was supposed to be for the disk.
For the disk drive, yeah, I knowthere was a Fire Emblem also
that was supposed to come out with the N64.
That got here he goes. There's a trailer for it.
Probably better off. It's like podcast.
Yeah, I mean, it looked. It looked, it looked like

(01:21:47):
something it was. It was odd this.
Is the trailer. For it.
Yeah, right here. Yeah, it was odd back then.
So they they made this is the thing that I hate when they they
show a trailer and then they cancel the game.
Like it's one thing. Like Wonder Woman just had the
title. That was it.
It was just the and they show her with the whip.
Yeah. So that was it.
No gameplay or anything. It was look like just a concept.

(01:22:09):
Exactly. Let me throw something like
that. That's one thing, right, Because
it just leaves it up to your imagination.
If you if you saw her doing I'llcombos and throwing the lasso,
Oh yeah. I would have been like, Oh my
God, you guys need yeah, like bebanned from making games.
Exactly. That's one thing.
But when you see gameplay, it's like, come on, guys, come on.
Man, you show a teaser, it's like you guys don't even have a
game. Like just just release it?

(01:22:31):
Just release it. Why do you have to cancel it if
you're that far along? Just Earthbound is the only
thing that works with N64. Like it's OK to look like that.
That's the only thing where it'sOK.
Well, it's a weird game. That's still early.
Yeah, that's still early. Yeah.
So weird. It won't look too much
different. Yeah.
Yeah, at the time, yeah, they weren't that good in 3D.

(01:22:51):
Maybe some of the issues will besmoother, I don't know.
Better have a lot of like personality.
All right, that was a good one, Sticks.
I'll go with an easy one. Well, you know what?
I might as well go with a deep dive Mega Man Legends.
Three. Yes.

(01:23:11):
And you felt the pain in his. Yeah, I might as well start with
that one because I don't want anybody else taking.
That oh, I don't have it yet so I didn't put it on my list, but
I saw it and I was like. That's true, I bought I bought
the 3DS for like $350.00 just because this game was coming
out. I remember that.
Yeah, there. Was nothing else I even cared
about. That's why I sold.
It to you, That's why you sold to me.
When you finally it was cancelled, you sold to me.

(01:23:33):
I was like I was. Like dude I can't believe they
cancelled this. Game look at this.
I mean, I was questioning what they were doing with it by the
time they actually were talking about it.
That's not Megan man. It's not mega wall bug.
No, it was a different. But look at that, they have the,
they're like showing the game and they're like talking about
it. The execs are like talking about
the all the new features and stuff and.

(01:23:54):
At the time when they were talking about it, when the when
the 3DS came out, they were talking about a a demo.
They look like they're on a gameshow.
Yeah, I know. It's Japan.
Yeah, it's Japan. They do it different over there.
They do it very different over there.
But they were coming out with a demo where people can vote on
what to do with it and getting feedback from people.

(01:24:14):
That's what they were supposed to do when it came out.
Downloadable demo, cancelled it completely.
Right. And I was like, OK, I questioned
it because first of all, it's not Mega Man.
There were two different characters you can be.
And I think it was supposed to save Mega Man or something.
So I don't know where they were going with that.
I love mega, my life is 1 and I love Part 2. 1 was great.
More 2 was better. I never, I never played two, but

(01:24:37):
one was. Great dark streak and it was
pretty dope. Yeah, that 1 was great.
Obviously, if you go back to it,the controls may not hold up.
I mean they will not hold. Up.
It's dated. I would love for them to do it
over again and fix that but withsome.
Valkyria. That was before the analog right
for PlayStation. No, but it was very tank movie.

(01:24:58):
Like you move around kind of tanky, but they pulled it off.
Listen, they don't do any Mega Man games.
I don't know why they don't do a3D Mega Man since they had this
template and they already had the characters and so much
personality in that game that they could have made a cartoon
out of it. They could have done so much
with this. Well, you see the technology we
have to to make a game like Hi-fi Rush and then you think of

(01:25:19):
like they just like they could easily do it.
This is PlayStation One exactly and they had movable mouths and
eyes. It looked great then it's one of
those games that still holds up.Yeah, still holds up.
This is. The time when static faces look
at you and be like right, You just hear words.
Yeah, we met at Resident Evil where the face was just like.
They're not moving and it made them look like.
The man mannerism. No, the gesture, The hand

(01:25:41):
gestures. The hand gestures and the
movement. How many times is Barry going to
do like this? Every time he's talking about
Chris's blood? Like fuck out of here.
The fucking hand. Stop moving your fucking.
Hand, But yeah, it it was such, it was so dramatic when they
cancelled the zombie that I soldmy 3DS to turbo for like 100
bucks. They said I'll take the loss,

(01:26:03):
get this out of my face. And then he sold his body.
Yo check this out though. Did not.
My body is ready. Damn.
No, I was going to say, somebodymade a fan made Mega Man Legends
3 fan project. You got to torture him some
more. No, I saw this.

(01:26:23):
I was like, oh, you saw this? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It doesn't look bad man. No, of course not, except what I
got. Yeah, I don't even know.
Like this skinny Hagar. Yeah, this guy.
This guy made it himself. Wow.
But like I said, they they, theyhad the idea.
I don't understand Capcom but this particular thing because
they just won't do it. Some creative people out there.

(01:26:43):
Man, that's crazy. Won't do it.
I don't know why. They have the whole world
already. And a lot of people still want
it too. They still talk about to this
day. So Capcom, if you're listening,
don't make it, man. Get a fan.
Get a fan to do it. Yeah, you don't have to even.
Raikkonen in the building he wants to.
See the X-Men shirt? See the X-Men shirt?

(01:27:05):
That's 90 seconds. X-Men 97.
That's a dope shirt that is. It is.
It's fire. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaking of shirts, I even have a Mega Man shirt on because this
is how much it hurts. That's a Mega Man.
It's pretty appropriate. Yeah, always try.
I try. Legends 3 that's.

(01:27:26):
What do you got there? I got Shining Force, Heroes of
Light and Darkness which is currently suspended.
Developed by Vespa, but they hadfinancial issues so I looked up
a article recently. They said it's not dead in the
water, but it's just really, yeah, it's not 100% in the water

(01:27:47):
right now. They just need money.
Interesting. And this is funny, you would
think, why am I talking about a phone game?
Why would I even care? This game looked fucking
beautiful. I was blown away.
It was like part the characters from Part 1 and 2 in the game.
Yeah. And the bosses, The, the, the,
the, the attacks were like animecutscenes.

(01:28:07):
I'm like what the? What?
Who is in charge? This is the game.
Yeah. This is.
This is the game. Yeah.
Wait, wait. This is the one thing that could
have breathed life into. Kids, that's what I'm saying.
The main reason I wanted this tocome back to come out because
maybe this could have been released for the console and
then if everyone's like, yo, this is amazing, then three
probably would have got remade and everyone will start talking
about fucking Shining Force all over again.

(01:28:28):
Now wait for the attacks. It's fucking insane.
It's like the it's like the Turtles game that was out of
mobile first for like a year. Yeah.
And then they brought it on Switch.
Yeah. I was just like, dude, you got
the characters from 1:00 and 2:00 in this shit.
Oh wow, that looks good. Wait till you see them attack.
That's crazy. Like, I think it's special moves
that, like, turn into anime cutscenes.

(01:28:50):
Yeah. That's actually pretty cool,
man. Yeah.
I don't understand. This is not.
Done at all. No, it just never happened,
never came up. Why Sega just doesn't try to?
Work. How beautiful that looks.
Wow, that looks. That's supposed to be the.
Phone. Are you kidding me?
That is. That's insane.
Do they have the same voice actor?
Look at that, The talk. No, that's no.

(01:29:10):
You're thinking of part 30. OK, dude.
That does look crazy. Dude what the how is this?
How is this even can't like what's?
The Like a Thundercats intro. It's yeah, it's insane.
That's an attack. Oh yeah, they nuke the budget on
the on those. Yeah, that's probably what it
was. They they lost money right
there. On those on those special.
Movies and dude, they have no budget and there was like more
footage I found of the game of music.

(01:29:31):
Yeah, the music was remixed. I was like, dude, this is see
that again. I can't believe that that's.
Crazy. That's beautiful.
That looks better than everything they've ever done.
Yeah. Imagine the action part, and
that's end game. Yeah, that's right.
Before a special move that's. Crazy.
Imagine Part 3 in that art. Oh God, God.
You'll have to. You'll have to.
Unfortunately. That's it's not.

(01:29:54):
And yeah, like what? Like how and.
That's nowhere. No, it's, it's just they said
it's suspended. That's I think they're looking
for someone to to help but just suspended, they said.
They're trying to figure out a way to milk money out of people
the hardest way possible to get money back when they bring it
out. Yeah, yeah.
We can't just bring out a regular strategy game.
No, no, they no. It's probably gonna be like loot

(01:30:14):
boxes. And shit like that.
Perfect way to do it and then that'll come.
Cuz Fire Emblem, the Fire EmblemHeroes, they.
Did that bank? That made a lot of money bank
and they didn't even need it, but they just made a lot of.
Money. And they cancelled that too.
Heroes good fuck that game Hey Ifucking.
Stand fire em heroes got cancelled.
Let me see. I think it's still available.
Let. Me see right now.

(01:30:34):
Fire em Heroes got cancelled. I think Nintendo took it down.
I don't know. I like just got a good mobile.
Division like delisted you mean?Yeah, I'm not.
I saw. I'm not sure.
It was making good. Money dude that shit looked
anime. That was anime that looked
great. That was fucking ridiculous.
That looked gay. Yep.
This is it right here. He's still there.
Let. Me.
See if you can still play it. Please, please tell me it's

(01:30:55):
still alive. Please you.
Don't care about the game. All right all right what you got
your next one Let's see here. You gotta.
Go back and sign in as garbage. So many freaking cancelled
games. Which one should I pick?
Damn it. All right, I'll go with the
Twisted Metal. Yes, bad idea.
I can't believe, like we were talking about member sticks, we

(01:31:20):
were talking about how perfect it would be for a live service.
And an era of arena games being as popular as they are.
Yeah, the original arena game. It's the real.
It's cancelled. Yeah, man, it's like the perfect
formula for a live service game.Plus as far as like licensing
and stuff they could add, you know, other vehicles.
TV show They have a television show.

(01:31:40):
A great television show by. That's actually good.
Yeah. And they couldn't bring out the
freaking game. I don't understand it man.
It would have been the. Perfect.
It just has to have a clown in it.
That's. Great, it just has to have a
clown in it. That's it.
That's all it means. It baffles me.
I don't know why they decided tojust.
They saw an invitation version of it come out and fail, so they

(01:32:02):
said, oh, we're scared, we can'tdo it.
That wasn't even anywhere I played that I remember it was
Destruction All Stars. I think it was something like
that. Yep.
And I played that on my PS-5 andI was like, all right, it's
cool, but it's like, it's not like Twisted Metal because you
have like your character can getout of the car and run around.
And I'm like, I didn't like that.
It's been years since they've done a Twisted Metal.

(01:32:23):
They could have done amazing. Stuff easily.
Easily. It's online.
That's. Great.
And people want to see it. They want to see twisted.
Metal, it's a game everybody canenjoy.
Twisted Metal makes sense. If they did that, I think it's
like, it's just sad. Just to quickly fix what I just
said, it looks like you can't still play the Fire Emblem game.
I don't know if you can still download it, but yeah it on the
phone. You see the picture.
Looks like you still play it. The art is crazy, the art on the

(01:32:45):
characters is crazy, but when you actually play the game, it's
like little chibi. Little stupid fucking.
It's, it's for a phone, you know, it's like it's a mobile
version, so. Angry damn remember they came
out with the little twist the metal the little RC cars they
even did that remember that yeahAs for I think it came out for
PS2 like one of the last ones they came out with before really

(01:33:06):
black and all that stuff yeah all may have been for PS1, one
of the last ones but they came out with a little like a little
baby and twisted metal his. Next.
Wow. But they even did that baby
Twisted Metal. Yeah, it used to be a franchise,
y'all Sony. What happened to Warhawk?
What happened to Twisted Metal? What happened to all these
titles you came out with in the beginning?
Sony just forgot about. What y'all complaining about

(01:33:26):
with Sony? Y'all got all y'all.
I don't want. To hear shit from y'all.
No, I don't want to hear. We don't have lost the metal.
Well, they're following Microsoft's lead, man.
Oh, we don't have, we don't haveTwisted Metal.
We have God of War. We have Ghost of Sushima.
We have Horizon. We have Crash.
Baby, Shut up. I just saw a pass crash.

(01:33:48):
Baby. Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my bad. Yeah.
Anyways, is it my turn? I'm sorry.
I'm crash. Guys, I'm crashing out.
I'm sorry. That's fine, people love it.
Anyways. Small brawl?
Yes, that's what it was called. Small brawl.
Daredevil, The Man Without Fear for PS2 and GameCube.
Yeah, so that was on my list also.
Man, that was a thing that was on my list.

(01:34:09):
Yeah, that was a thing. They're waiting for seafood.
Yeah, right. Yeah, that's perfect.
That's what they're waiting for.Yeah, I mean, like Daredevil
would have been a very cool game.
Like to have for him to have hisown game the way they're making
superhero games nowadays. Now they're killing it.
Yeah, dude, they're killing it. I think Daredevil could be done
and done very, very well. So that.

(01:34:31):
Was that was going to come out doing the Fox Daredevil though?
I don't know about that game. Yeah.
The Fox. Yeah, yeah.
That's the problem. It was when Ben Affleck was
paying. Oh good thing they waited and
cancelled. Yeah, yeah, we all know why that
was cancelled. Now, not for nothing, I didn't
mind that Daredevil movie. Watch it now.
No, no, no, no, I I'm spoiled bythe series so.

(01:34:55):
Watch that an Electro. No, no, no, no, no.
Oh, watch. No, you can't.
No, you can't watch. You can't watch it.
Like, stop it, stop it. That's not funny.
Send Madam what he said Send. That is not.
Funny. And then Morbius.
No, no, no, no, Madam. Webb is already worse.
And then you got to finish it off with Joker 2O.
No, just just. You know, I think I think Madam

(01:35:16):
Webb might be worse than. Don't get Craven.
Oh yeah, Craven, also yes. Craven was still.
It's like an appetizer, Craven. Craven was better than Madam
Webb and Morbius I think. I haven't seen any of them.
You shouldn't don't. I saw like an hour of Morbius.
Don't. Did you don't.
Yeah. So like.
An hour of it. It was just one of those.
I was just like, nothings happening.
It was like, you know when you have like AB movie on in the

(01:35:37):
background, that's what it felt like.
I was like, nothing's really going on.
I just drink. Really, Netflix?
It's morbid time. I wanted to at least see one
episode of Morbius. I haven't I haven't done yet.
It's. A movie episode.
It's a movie. It's a movie.
Movie I was. Like man 2 movies checked out
man. Sorry, sorry.
I love it. Yo, I'm.
Gonna check out an episode of Morbius.

(01:35:58):
I was. Thinking of Daredevil and threw
a Morbius. I was like once I was like, oh,
that shit was. Let me know how to first episode
is and I might watch it first. Actually, you're into the
movies. You're up next right now, man.
What? Game Morbius Morbius Morbius TV
show. TV show that.
Morbius was such a great character in the Marvel Midnight

(01:36:19):
Suns too. It sucks that the movie sucks.
He's also in the Marvel Alliance3.
And he's great in that all righttime Splurs 4.
Oh, that was they. Weren't gonna do that too.
Yeah, I. Forgot about that.
The whole franchise, man. One of the only first persons I
actually enjoyed. Yeah.
Was it the time Minds? Is that what it was?

(01:36:39):
Yeah. Yeah.
Those were fun. Those were great.
You just load them up on the person.
'S face. Yeah, I had a great physics
system. I like Time Square, so that was
very time square wasn't bad either.
That was my goal. Yeah, this is a teaser.
That was my gold man teaser. Trailer from 13 years ago.
Recently it got cancelled though.

(01:36:59):
No, I'm saying this this right here was from. 13 years ago
footage. It's a teaser.
Free radical. I forgot where they went.
Every journey has a final step. I just see tiny things, yeah.
I don't know what's. Going on, every game has a
sequel. That's Sam.
That's not true. That's not.
True. Yeah, Yeah, it's not a true.
What about Vanquish motherfuckers?
Yeah. That's a monkey.
That looks like a monkey. That's hilarious they put a

(01:37:20):
monkey in that suit. Wow, fun game though man.
It was great and you know, I really wanted.
To that. That was the.
Truth. Better off not showing it, yeah?
Terrible. Don't even show anything.
Oh man. Well, yeah, Times players 4.
Good socks, good one, good one. Socks.
All right. What you got 6?
I'm gonna go with the playable teaser.

(01:37:43):
Ah, that's on my list too. PT.
Silent Hills. Silent Hills is what it ended up
being. This is one of the greatest
mysterious releases I've ever played.
Oh. That had Norman Reedus at the
end. Yeah.
Yeah, it was. It was like a.
It's like a fake, like this was a demo of a game that wasn't
going to be anything. Guys, it was the prequel to

(01:38:04):
that's trending. Yeah.
Pretty much can you do? Stop.
Yeah, I might as well have been that.
That would make sense if they ifthey announced that and say
yeah. It's still one of the scariest
games I played, and it's not even like a game.
It's like, yeah, it's a full, it's actually a full demo.
What I really liked was just thelike the just the marketing

(01:38:26):
behind how they shadow dropped it.
Yeah. And they didn't.
There was no explanation. But the thing that got me was
how the community all got together online to like, help
each other out, how to get through and like, get this.
Oh dude. Dude, I was there during that
first day. Yeah.
And I went online. It's like, yo, how do you do
that with this phone? Yeah, well, how does this sound?
How do you get this? What's the baby sound?

(01:38:47):
What is this? And people were figuring that
shit out. They was like yo put a
microphone in your controller. That's crazy.
I was like, what are you talking?
About. How do you know this?
But it was like a whole, like the whole, imagine the whole
world, the whole gaming community was got to join
together to get through this game.
That's a demo. That's like, what the hell?
And. It's the actual gameplay loop.
Is an actual loop in the game. Yeah, that's the genius of it.

(01:39:11):
And it spawned other other companies making games that was
that. With that I would that in mind
also. I would have bought that game
for a full retail price, yeah. As is, as is.
It's like a 2 hour game maybe, yeah.
You were paid. I mean, we're looking for that.
For the experience I had, yeah. Wow.
Now here's a question. Yeah, I'm good because this this

(01:39:31):
the PT is a is a. Why would?
You play this. PT is a is a game, right?
That that never released, right?They cancelled it, Yeah, but
they had a playable demo. Yeah.
What other games that they cancelled had a playable demo?
I can't think of any off the topof my.
Head Well, the thing about this game is that yes, it's supposed

(01:39:54):
to be Silent Hills. They said that if they did make
silent hills. It's not going to play like.
That it would not be anything like PT.
Yeah. So it wasn't actually a playable
team. So that it's not a demo, it's a
teaser. For.
Just for the title, that's what it was, a playable, that's crazy
teaser for the title of a game that's coming up.
How do you get people to open? Became a delivery man.

(01:40:17):
Yeah. FedEx job, he said.
Fuck this. Yeah, yeah, I'm out.
Unfortunately it's one of the like casualties of digital only.
Yeah, the fact that they ripped it like off the servers that you
can't download it unless you've already downloaded.
It's still on my PS. It's still.
On not deleting that. Shit.
And people actually sell their PS Fours with it on it for a lot

(01:40:38):
of money. That's crazy.
A lot of money. That's just selling your
account. I'm not selling.
Yeah, I sell my freaking Sony account.
That's enough to it. But they've actually made PC
versions of this game. Yep, like fake.
Like they made their own just tohave it available to play.
It's insane man. Yeah, but it yeah, it's it's sad
that that guy cancelled with thehype that they had going for it.
It's so crazy. But like you said, normally just

(01:41:00):
became a delivery you. Work for FedEx.
And it's a big title now, so PT yeah.
PYT. Pretty young thing.
What you got there style? All right, I got something that
might be cancelled. State of the K3.
Yes. So I so I looked up some stuff
about this the other day. So it said.

(01:41:21):
And of course, you know, AI answered everything it said.
While there's been a concern about Santa K3 development due
to recent layoffs at Undead Labsand lack of updates, REAP
reports suggest that the game isstill in development and not in
immediate danger of cancellation.
Rumors about a delay to 2026 have also surfaced, but the game
is reportedly progressing with the studio receiving assistance

(01:41:44):
from other Microsoft owned studios.
The other studios is Obsidian Entertainment and the Coalition
on specific aspects of the game's development, such as
multiplayer and optimization. Yeah, there's a good chance this
is never coming out. So, yeah, I mean that's that's.
Good chance. There's there's problems.

(01:42:05):
I mean, there was obviously you had the first trailer with just
the deer that everyone's like, we haven't seen anything.
But then this trailer came out where it actually showed
gameplay and you know, the effects of people dying in the
community and the, you know all that stuff and it looked great,
looked awesome. That's what hurts the most when
you see gameplay and a follow uptrailer, because that was the

(01:42:27):
problem. There was no trailer.
It was kind of a teaser at 1st and it was no gameplay and they
showed gameplay. So I'm like all right.
And then silence So. I'll speculate, Alan, about this
title is I think that they are trying to figure out how to make
it a like a viable live service game and how to get that loop to
get everybody to pay. I think there was a thing that I

(01:42:50):
read about this game. So in the first game, when you
shoot your gun, Zonom. Zonomies.
Wow, Zombies. What the fuck?
What is this? Zonomy?
They're zombies, but they're enemies.
Yeah, there we go. Zombie enemies.
Zombies randomly pop up, right? They won't be on the map,
period. But when you shoot, Oh my God,
there's two. And it's like spawn out of

(01:43:11):
nowhere. So they wanted to eliminate that
and apparently it's a big fucking deal to get like to
shoot your gun and have zombies from like around the area,
right, to hone in on that spot, like to to develop that.
Apparently it's like it would beit started becoming a problem.
So that's why they reached out to other cops.
So that's what they're actually,that's one of the things that

(01:43:33):
they're working on. So they're probably rebuilding
the shit from the ground. Yeah, that's pretty much what
they're doing. Just because that was a big
thing in Part 1 and two shoot your gun, they randomly just pop
up right next to you. But they're getting rid of
because that's not realistic. So now they're they're.
Shooting zombies aren't real, they could pop up, whatever.
Yeah, and it's like they if if you watch, you know, zombie
shows like The Walking Dead, youmake a loud noise.

(01:43:55):
They from like miles down, they go to your location.
And that would be the that to mewould be amazing and realistic.
So I know nothing about developing.
I don't know anything about thatshit.
So, you know, it's not officially cancelled.
Am I optimistic? No, I'm not optimistic at all.
Has the potential to be. But this?

(01:44:17):
The amount of time that they've taken with this game, they, I
would have liked to have seen like an idea of how this game is
supposed to be and the fact thatthey haven't given us an idea of
where they're going with it. Obviously they showed what it
looks like. Yeah, like the story going to be
live. Like live service, is it going
to be single player? Is it going to be multiplayer?
Like do you show a bunch of people playing together?

(01:44:39):
Like, show us something in the game.
But for me, I think it makes sense that's taking so long
because I think they are in overtheir heads.
If they understand how to go. I think they had a plan, yeah.
And I think. People come in.
Yeah, I think the execution, they were like, I don't know if
we could pull this shit off and we need some fucking help.
Yeah, they could also. I think the idea, yeah, I think
the idea was too big for them. And they're like, but I think

(01:45:02):
they were along where they don'thave to start from scratch.
They just need some fucking help.
But I don't know, you know, we got to hope that, yeah.
Microsoft needs help. Yeah, they need to release
something. They need to release something.
You know they have to release one of these fucking so I got
to. Add that we'll talk about Yeah,
because they can release something and then we'll forget
about it. Well, I'll to add to that, I'll
go next. So to add to that Fable ah, it's

(01:45:25):
online as well. The new Fable has the potential
to be cancelled. I I I have a weird feeling that.
They're doing the same thing like they are announcing it and
not showing it exactly. At all.
Exactly. And there's been years.
Like years. You gotta give.
You gotta give like, like bread crumbs.
You gotta give little something.This is the thing to get people
confident. Nintendo made the mistake of

(01:45:46):
doing that with Match Prime, right?
But, you know, kudos to them foractually still doing the fucking
game because everyone thought itwas going to be, you know, it
just took 10 years, 1 success story.
Yeah, but that's Nintendo. Nintendo, you know that
Nintendo's like, my bad. And they even said we actually
broke it all the way down and started from scratch.
Yeah. OK, cool.
Yeah, they gave you information,you know they.
Kept you? Yeah, yeah.

(01:46:06):
They kept you informed they. Didn't say it's not it's not
cancelled. We just we're we're restarting
from scratch. However, Microsoft has a bad
right now. They have a bad record.
They get rid of everything. They get rid of everything.
So the fact that state of decay 3 and Fable is my a Microsoft
product, it's like I don't know.Those are their those are their
games yes, and you just and you just can't and you just
cancelled. It's on someones list.

(01:46:28):
Perfect. Dark.
Yeah. So alright, that's one gone.
No, they cancelled three games. Yeah, three.
You know, it's like, like what they're known for.
Like dude, Fables supposed to belike, you're Zelda.
Yeah. But all these games with things
they announced and talked about and didn't show much about.
And they as. These other games.
And the messed up part is there is gameplay a fable they showed
a little bit and I found some more.

(01:46:50):
I saw that they that they didn'teven like put up and it looked
good and I'm like, but it was like 27 seconds it's.
Like they have an idea of the whole game like they anyone,
like they said with what'd you call it when they did, when they
did a perfect dark and they saidthat level was made to look that
way, like it was gameplay, but they made it so you had if you

(01:47:10):
had to go this way, you had to catch the guy at the same point.
Like if you went, you stepped tothe right a little.
That whole thing wouldn't. Yeah, they said most of it was
real gameplay, but they used some stuff that wasn't.
Yeah, that's cool to work, but. That's what I'm.
Saying, but you're doing it the wrong fucking way.
You don't show prized games thatpeople want to see like that
because you're teasing everybody.

(01:47:31):
Exactly. Oh, we just fucking made this
amazing steak come to the restaurant.
Oh, no, we don't have. We're out of state.
Yeah, we're. Out it's like a Jamaican
restaurant, right yo-yo, yo-yo, we got the ills ox killer on the
block. You know the restaurant we're
not have not ox till. We don't have that, yo.
No, they always added everything.
Man, Popeyes, like what's that news?

(01:47:54):
No, Remember. Do you remember when that
Popeyes first opened? Yeah.
And there was a line down the street for spicy.
Chickens had to have cops to freaking like direct.
Traffic for the spicy chicken just to get just for the regular
chicken when it first. Just because it was a new
restaurant, that was it. I'll talk about last week.
Oh shit this happened last. Week, there's still a line.

(01:48:14):
No, I ordered food on the app. I got there and he said where
are we don't have? That we don't have that, but we
have your money. Wow, I bought it.
I bought it though. Yeah, can I get a refund?
You would give you this two tenders And so I was like,
bullshit. It's not what you ordered.
What the hell? We'll give you that.
That kind of shit that doesn't. Even add up.
It's all tricky. I just bought a Nintendo.
I gave you an Xbox. Like right excuse.

(01:48:35):
Me. Oh, nobody wants this.
Yeah, we don't. Have that.
Nobody want that. I asked for that.
I asked for the system of games.I got a.
PC, not just a. Box.
If you're like, I could use a doorstep.
I can't. I can't even argue with y'all
now. It's so messed up.
I can't argue with y'all. I've already got.
A but dude, yeah, it's it's fucking scary with with No, in
fact, that like after that was apad and and I don't and I don't

(01:48:57):
I don't see things getting better.
I don't Fable to be honest, I think there's more of a shot of
stay of decay than fable. I don't know fable.
They showed nothing of fable. What about stuff they bought out
Like hell Blade 2 came out? Yeah, yeah, the day after it
came out. I still haven't.
Played that but. Forgot it came out.
I keep forgetting that I don't even know that came out.

(01:49:17):
I. Keep forgetting that thing was.
Like I heard it was good, but it's like I heard I didn't even
hear what I played at. I played it, I have it.
Downloaded the only thing I readabout it.
The the only negative was too short.
That was the only negative thingI read.
It's so short, no one played it,but it's.
Crazy though, but it's not. Sure you hit start, it's over,
but where's the marketing for itlike they did?
I don't even know they knew it was released.

(01:49:38):
It's crazy. That's why I had no faith in
Microsoft. So who's whoever's in charge?
I think that's the problem. I think whoever's in charge of
marketing these freaking games, Yeah, Is that's the problem.
Come on, fire. Them because it's like if you
got why are you showing fucking gameplay and then like then it's
0 nothing for years. Dude, they had that up like it
was God of War and it came out and no one saw it.

(01:50:02):
Dude, you know, I might, I mightas well just buy.
Since I can't find it, I might as well buy State of Decay too.
Yeah, you know, because you might as well, you know,
remember I was afraid to to buy it because I felt like they were
gonna announce the release date.I'm like, now I'm confident.
Yeah, I can actually buy Part 2 again and play it from scratch.
I think it's a safe play it withyou guys.
Actually, I think that's a greatidea.
So I'll just do that. They come on and announce an

(01:50:22):
update for that before the othergame.
And they have a shit load and they have a shit load of
updates. Well, they just update it to
three, Yeah. Yeah.
That's it. Update to part.
They get, they get live. Oh, and not to go on about State
of Decay 3, but it's it's so frustrating that Dying Light 2
just got an update with Walking Dead characters.
Yeah. Oh wow.
You know. Fucking it's it's Rick.

(01:50:42):
I think it's Michonne and I think it's Daryl's outfit or
something. That's weird.
That's. Fucked up.
Because this is that's State of Decay, dude.
That's Allstate of Decay. And they're missing it.
They're missing all of that right there.
Dying Light is the franchise I've I've been wanting to get
into. I've been wanting to get into
that. I think I have it.
It was free or something. One of them was what could have
been Dead Island. I don't know, those games are

(01:51:03):
the same to me. Wait.
A minute, yeah, I was confused both It's my turn that's.
Marvel versus Capcom 4. Well, that's never coming.
It doesn't. Not a next.
Game let's talk let's talk aboutit we'll talk about it for a hot
second God damn man sorry man somarvel versus Capcom infinite
comes out tanks. Hard that actually got an update

(01:51:26):
for 35 gigs 2 days ago. Really.
For what? It was like 13 years, you said.
I don't know for what. Jesus Christ.
So, so yeah, then Marvel versus Capcom, that whole front quiet.
Then the Marvel versus Capcom Fighting Collection comes out.
We're like, oh, and it does and it does well, apparently.

(01:51:46):
And we're like, oh, so so there's a chance.
There's a chance. And then what?
Trailer drops Marvel tocon fighting souls that name that
game. Yeah.
Marvel VS Capcom 4 ain't never coming out bro.
No. Ain't ever coming out.
Dude if they add wheel to it. Though, and don't get, and don't

(01:52:07):
get me wrong, like Marvel Tocon,I'm going to be first, I'm going
to be first in line to get the physical copy of this.
Let me ask you this. Don't care when they did the
rewind, which one? When they did the rewind at the
end of that trailer, did you think they were going to drop
Capcom in that? No, that would no, no.
I don't like that thing on Iron Man's head.
He looks. He looks too.
And. He looks like a Gundam.

(01:52:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Get that off, because that's
that's very Gundam. No, that's fine.
I don't. Like that, he's like, he's like,
I'll take what I can get, man. Let it be, Let it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah, this.
Is very Japanese. This game, yeah, this game is.
So. What you want?
Arxis has the IP and it looks like they're going to knock it
out of the park with this game. I still want a Marvel Versus

(01:52:50):
Capcom 4, but if this is what I have to hold on to in the mid
time in in in the time between. That'll hold you over.
By all means, yeah. Give me this game.
Marvel's Capcom 4. I'm sorry.
It'll hold you over. I'm sorry because it's tag team
fighting with all Marvel characters.
Yep, they better come out with that Japanese version again
while they're waiting and figureout with the Duke.

(01:53:13):
Wait, what's it called? It's Tatsunuko.
Tatsunoko versus Capcom. Yeah.
Yeah, that game was fire. It was why not brush up on your
versus with another version of that?
I mean, obviously the lights is it is crazy.
Yeah. But.
Could you imagine the anime characters they bring in?
Maybe they'll do a different verses?
Maybe. Maybe.
Why not? Because if they do a Tatsunoko
versus Capcom and they can bringin other anime universes.

(01:53:35):
But there's Sega versus Capcom. I, I I'd mess with that.
Do. Something there there there is a
Sega versus. Capcom, but they didn't make.
It it's a fan made game, it looks fucking awesome.
OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It looks really awesome. Mega Man X Axel.
Yeah, I saw that. Looks awesome, I've been trying
to get them on the podcast but they haven't.
Been responding to. Me what they do like a versus

(01:53:56):
the beat em UPS, Capcom beat em UPS versus those characters.
I'd love to. See those versus series with all
those. I no true.
Oh, don't be Street Fighter too.Yeah, yeah, it's already Street
Fighter. Whoa and final fight, No but
like all that beat em UPS. I got you.
No one cares about final fight anymore.
Damn, wow, damn, with that I'll hate right now.

(01:54:21):
Oh damn. That's a wild how do you say it?
Because Marvel, they're not getting for a while.
Yeah, not for a long time. And it's unfortunate because
like, I, I wish they made-up sooner because like the way the
MCU was going, they could, they have so many more characters
that they could use it, but whatever.
But it was gonna be fire. I needed to ask how many more

(01:54:44):
does everyone have on? I have like 1 I can do.
One I have one maybe 2. I got 3, I'll do one but I'll do
I could do 1. I'll take Perfect Dark off since
you mentioned it style real quick.
Yeah, yeah, it was. I mean everybody knows about
that. Yeah, I don't really need to
elaborate and every wild also I'll take that off the list.
So if I do that, I'm left with three games.

(01:55:06):
I mean, you can run through quick, but talk about you guys,
yeah. I can run through this.
Yeah. I can run through, run through,
run through them. OK, yeah.
Star Wars 1313. Yeah, I looked at just then.
What? What was that one?
Star Wars 1313, that was. About the other one, right?
Yeah, it was about Julio. Was there a trailer?
I think. So I think so.
Yeah, that was been The Mandalorian, like right before
that game, I think. Really.

(01:55:27):
It was. It was.
Yeah, it was before the what came out after that?
Outlaws. Star Wars Outlaws.
Oh yeah, it was way before that though.
Yeah, but 1313, yeah, it was. That was the game that was.
It looked like Outlaws Lucas beforehand.
I don't remember this. No.
This looked, I don't. Yeah, this is dope.
I don't remember this one player.

(01:55:47):
Well, it focused on one player. Yep.
From a weasel. Really.
Yeah, it just got like a wiped off the planet.
And they just cancelled it. That damn man.
And look how great it was. How to play like what did it?
Play like like outlaws. It looked like it looked like
outlaws. Oh, really?
But you're a dude with a, you know, a bounty hunter.
Yeah, think of a bounty. Hunter like a.

(01:56:07):
Like. A Mandalorian, not a
Mandalorian. Boba Fett.
Probably can get in his armor or.
Something Boba Fett. Yeah, that's what it.
Was like Boba Fett probably giveyou the armor later.
Remember the movie? Both of it that look crazy
buffet that looked like it wouldhave really.
That looked really good. Action like all action.
Actually, hold on, let me go go back look like some some drama

(01:56:28):
going on Look at that that looksfun.
They. Probably would have gave him the
Mandalorian armor later. You.
Never know, you know, they probably cancel it and they're
probably gonna reskin him with Mandalorian word.
Well, that would have been a great idea, but.
Don't merge it with the next Jedi game.
Paul see it turned into Bounty Hunter where you play as Django
Fett. I tried to play that game about

(01:56:50):
a month ago and yeah, I couldn't, I couldn't get past
the first thing they throw at you, which is like you're
fighting the beast. And I was just like I'm I can't.
Turn this off, he said. Turn this off.
Turn this game. I wanted to give it a chance and
try to beat it. I think I was just fucking up.
I just was. I wasn't liking what I was
playing already in that game. Do you have any other?
Yeah. Let me let me throw these, throw
these out. Super Mario 64 two.

(01:57:12):
That's fake. That never happened.
They had. Never heard of?
That. They were trying to they were
trying to put Luigi in there. Okay, they try, they try and
they still haven't been able to do it.
Make a two player game where it's like full 3D, not like
Mario, it's not like Mario 3D World.
Close. It does say Mario 64 Two was a

(01:57:32):
planned sequel to look at that was ultimately cancelled.
OK, all right, look at that. I'm doing.
Facts here, man facts. I'll shut up all.
Right, my last one, Captain America and Black Panther game.
Oh. Yeah, actually I have the Black
Panther that's on my list. That one would look, yeah.
That was cancelled. Yeah, that was, I forgot that
was cancelled. That was on my list, man.
I was. Gonna cancel the other Black

(01:57:53):
Panther game, not that one. Yeah, Oh, no, they yeah, they
definitely cancelled the the thesolo Black Panther.
Game that was the one that got cancelled, not this one.
The solo Black Panther game. Oh yeah, where you could play
various Black Panthers across different timelines or something
like that. No, I think that one's the cap
that and they're going through different time periods, I think.
I don't know. No they because the the Captain

(01:58:14):
America Black Panther game takesplace in like World War 2. 1943.
So it is the throwback, but thatnot jumping through time.
Yeah, I think that's still goingthough.
I don't know. Oh no, but that.
No, no, that's solo. But that Black Panther main
game, I think, I think that is. Cancer like 2 weeks ago or
something that's crazy but I don't know if that one got
cancer. You saw it.
Let. Me see.
Well, Captain America one that cancer because it closed.

(01:58:35):
It's a teaser. Yeah, they did have a teaser.
They had a teaser, they looked really good, which is just this.
I mean it probably will get canceled if it didn't.
Oh, sorry, yeah, I think it's a Black Panther game, that guy.
Came the regular black man. Though the one that's with Cat
America, that one's still going on.
Yeah, sorry, I got the Black Panther game picks.
Up tomorrow. Tomorrow cancelled.

(01:58:56):
Tomorrow it's going. To go wow.
Yeah, yeah. Watch in an hour.
An hour from now, they cancelled.
Why a bit Marvel 1943, Rise of Hydra, The Captain America with
Black Panther that's still in the works.
OK. That we know of.
Wait for it. Yeah, wait for it.
That we know of. Wait.
For it, yeah, we know. It's got to turn out.
Who knows? Right.
Anything else? No, that's the last last of my

(01:59:19):
list. All right, I got three.
I run too quick. Yeah.
I was super interested in this game.
It's like a third person game. It was a Starfield ghost.
Huh. See Starfield Starfield.
Really long time ago, long time ago.
Really. I guess.
You could say it's Ghost. Or stop.
Actually, is it field? Let me see Starfield Ghost. *.

(01:59:44):
I'm looking this up and I can't.I might have said field wrong.
I'll hold up because it says Star.
I'm not seeing anything. Craft StarCraft Ghost StarCraft.
Space Ghost. Space.
StarCraft StarCraft Ghost Yes, long time ago dude.
This is way back in the memory, but it looked like.
Oh, StarCraft ghost trailer? Here we go, remastered.
Like when Tomb Raider was popular as hell and they came

(02:00:06):
out with this one, it looked like it was in space.
Stressful. Like I'm not a I wasn't a
StarCraft person at all. Oh, what is this?
What? The game is pretty dope.
What the hell this is? I hate when they do this
comparison videos. They look like a Resident Evil 0
trailer. Yeah.
Speaking of which, that could beon some of the list Part 1.5
group. So this is the trailer for it,

(02:00:27):
right? Yeah, you can skip for it.
It's quick though. I don't know if they even show
them. What type of game?
I know StarCraft is a strategy game, right?
A real? A real.
Person like Tomb Raider? Really.
Yeah, StarCraft is a strategy game though.
It was a chicken up like a Metroid suit, kinda.
Yeah, I know. It's it's originally.
So real time strategy. Yeah, I don't see her in this

(02:00:47):
trailer, so I don't know what this one is, but.
Big ass feat yo armor man. That's war handsome you.
Wait, you ain't moving around that shit.
Yeah, I don't know if this is the trailer for but she was like
in a blue suit, blonde hair, butdramatic.
Trailer. What else?
Moving on, Castlevania resurrection but a Dreamcast?

(02:01:09):
Oh. That got cancelled.
That was what the chick? Sonja.
Oh, they had footage of that right online.
They had a demo I think. Yeah, that was available.
Played it. They do with a mustache, not.
Do with a mustache. What are you talking about?
He was one of the characters. You could be Sonja Belmont and
the do with the. Man, I'm just seeing the chick.
OK but this never came out. It got cancelled.
I don't know where they were going.

(02:01:30):
This is a 1999 trailer. Yeah.
This is old. Already got a demo out.
Yeah, you could actually just get a game play footage of the.
Yeah, you could play it. Why she has no armor on?
Well, this is not done, Yeah. She's like, I'm just trying to
figure out why I'm here. She's very agile, she doesn't
need it. It's old man.
It's. A skinny ass dragon.
Whoa, that was a jump. It's dated, man.

(02:01:52):
It's dated 1990. This is very unfinished after
the Nintendo 64 three D1. We call that a concept trailer.
Yeah, this. Is 1999 So what it was?
This is about what graphics looklike back then.
There was something you could play but never released. 26
years ago. God damn and my last one.
And this one's crazy. I mean luckily they reversed it,

(02:02:13):
but The Walking Dead Telltale. Oh yeah.
Dude that was in the final season.
There was 2 episodes left. Oh yeah, and.
They cancelled the whole thing like there was no one to bring
this game out anymore. The publisher was done.
What was the name? The sequel number, do you
remember it was called Final Season.

(02:02:35):
OK. Yeah, it's final season, but
don't show it, you know, spoils.OK, never mind.
But yes, they cancelled it with two episodes left and I was
like, dude, I invested so much time, it's crazy in this game
and you cancelled that. Emotion.
Before it bending and it was allemotion but I damn this shit I
think I did shit to you. So they announced that I was
like, dude, there's no way they can cancel this right now.

(02:02:57):
Can you give people closure, man?
Come on, it took you. Gotta get big gamers closure.
I think half a year. I love it when it lingers.
It's like, get this fucking thing off.
I think it's half a year or so, half a year or so.
People begging and writing in tofinally get this thing done.
It's crazy. I forget what happened, but they

(02:03:19):
said and found somebody to give us money or whatever and we can
bring this out now. Somebody was kidnapped.
Maybe it's crowdfunded? Possible.
Maybe. Maybe it was.
That was that makes sense. The game was made by force at
Gunpoint, the first game to fillup by gunpoint, developed by
Gunpoint. Let's name the company.

(02:03:39):
You can say that. I don't think it's crowdfunded,
but somebody picked it up and they came out and I was like,
yes, thank goodness. There's no way y'all could have
done this and just left us hanging.
That would have been the worst thing.
That's a ball drop. Man, Ever.
That's battle chasers type of ball dropping right there.
Yeah, I think that was like, I think we streamed that live too.
I was like, and the news like. You've seen my emotion.

(02:04:02):
Through all that, there's no ending.
Yeah, it's ridiculous. It all came out.
I'm happy. Oh, yeah, style.
You got any others? That's my favorite button, by
the way. I'm a no.
It's the best one. Speaking of cancelled, Yeah it
came out, but it then it was cancelled multiverses.

(02:04:22):
Yeah, that's fair. That's fair.
I bet that for that they get cancelled, yeah.
And that was probably one of themost heartbreaking ones because
I at least got to play it and enjoy it.
You guys were like, that was a community thing.
Yeah, that was that was a. Oh man, it.
Had so much promise so to. Show named after.
Yeah, that that was. And it legitimately it won
Fighting game of the year, Yeah,for the beta.

(02:04:44):
The beta won the beta. Game did not win the beta.
The The Real 1 was nominated. Yeah.
No, it was. Which is crazy.
And then a month or two later, it was done.
It's crazy I'm taking one and then that got cancelled.
This is what I don't, I don't rock.
That would be me. I, I don't rock with live
service man, I, I knew that was,that was the worst possible way
to go about that. Game there was no physical

(02:05:05):
edition? Nope.
Or like no final version. No, even Hell Divers 2 which is
also a live service game has a physical edition like they have
a physical copy. One, no one player mode they're.
Like give me that $40 first. They paid for that win.
Yeah, that's exactly what it was.
But staying optimistic, Shout out to Hakio with Multiverses

(02:05:26):
Infinite. They're working hard.
I've been getting updates. Obviously I can't reveal much,
but they got some awesome awesome.
Awesome things cooking. They cook and let them cook, and
then when it's time to reveal stuff, they'll reveal it.
And shout out to Tony Win for bringing us the game.
Together Tony win all day cancellation.
I would like to have Tony Winn back on the podcast.
And shout out to Play First Studios or Play First Games.

(02:05:48):
Yeah, you know, absolutely. All right.
And fuck WB. Yeah, I second that.
Yeah. Damn, I got two games here.
Hold up one time. Oh, the perfect, perfect.
Thank you for that. No, the first one is The Last of
Us Online. They cancelled that.
Great. I was actually excited for that.

(02:06:09):
Actually, I was happy. To I like the other.
No, I like the other Last of Us one I mess with online with
that. That's actually very, very good.
As a standalone. I actually heard that that was
fun. Someone very, very good.
Well I'm saying that's a standalone game.
I'm glad they cancelled. It but I'm saying like when I
heard that they were doing an online, but I'm like for for the
second one, I'm like, that's actually cool with the same

(02:06:30):
mechanics and everything. I'm like, that would work very
well. They're they're they're gun
mechanics were probably one of the best I've played.
Yeah, it's it works very well. Yeah, very especially with the
crossbow. Put that shit in the mother
fucker's throat. Hear them go.
That shit was amazing man. But that was when I was thirsty.
I understood why they cancelled that because it would hold them
back on that with single player games and you know, like big

(02:06:52):
titles because they're stuck like live service.
You're stuck with that for 10. Years I want that Co I wanted
that Co-op so that was the rumorat 1st that it was going to be a
Co-op game and then I think theysaid it was like a multiplayer
online or something like that. But the online you can do Co
like you can work together to freaking you can want a
campaign? Well, yeah, well, yeah.
How dope would it be if it was part of part three or the
sequel? Like you have your story.

(02:07:12):
That would be amazing you. Have a side thing that's online
like it used to be. Man, I already got the idea for
that man. But the focus on it, that's one
singular thing, yeah. To take away everything.
Like that's not the way to go. I mean they learned their.
Lesson. Hopefully.
Hopefully, hopefully and then the last game, the last game,

(02:07:33):
which I mean, this is a game that originally played on Xbox
360 Prey. I don't know if you guys
remember that game. I remember the original prey
which. Was that was dope.
And then I was like, oh cool. I remember they announced the
sequel like oh I can't wait for the sequel.
That was the one on the reservation with the aliens.
Yes. Not the other one.
No, not the other one that that's a reboot, basically,

(02:07:54):
Yeah, but no, they they actually, I like that we're
working on the the prey too. And I'm like ah, cancel.
Don't mess with me. Yeah, never heard anything
about. That they had a sequel to the
other one they remade? Yep.
Which didn't do that great. No.
Yeah, Guy. Don't play the and sound effects
happy but yeah no, that was a disappointing man cuz I'm like.

(02:08:19):
That was one of the only first person shoes I played through.
I don't know why. That was so great, it was like
it. Started.
You were immersed like the way it started.
The story, the way they, the waythey set everything up, it was
just so engrossing, like you were.
Just a mercy. There was a scene to be guys
like, oh. I mean, there's a lot of, like,
messed up scenes, yeah. But it's like, imagine, imagine
an alien invasion and it's like,and they put you in the shoes of

(02:08:43):
like, a just getting abducted. Yeah, Yeah.
And everybody around you is getting abducted.
You're just like, it's crazy. Yeah, it's.
Dope, it was a cool concept for for a game man.
Anyone else got anything? And that's it.
That's. AI got an honorable mention.
You. Marvel's Avengers.
Everyone's like dude this is depressing.

(02:09:03):
It's still going. It is not still going.
It's still going. No, it's not.
You can still play it. You can't still play it online,
right? We should probably.
Try. No, you can't play it online.
You can still play it at one. Play at one, yeah.
That's about it. So we can't even play that rate.
No, no, no. You can play the campaign.
The game is over. That's fucked up.
I think that's about it. I think those servers shut down
back in like September. You could only play the single

(02:09:24):
player campaign. That's at least.
It's still, well, at least you could still play that.
At least you still not sure you.Could still play the campaign at
least. That one hurts.
I liked that game a lot. That Ray was crazy.
I wanted to at least beat that Ray at.
Least it should have beat that ray.
Yeah, they yeah, they glitched out, got you out of it.
Yeah, they freaking. And then I stayed around and
then I had to flip into the roomevery single time for the same

(02:09:46):
people. Like flipping around like a
fucking moron. I just thought of an honorable
mention. Mario 35.
What the hell, man? That was fun, man.
What the hell? That was fun.
Thanks, Nintendo. Nintendo, thanks for the hell.
What the hell are you doing? Thanks.
For the breath of fresh air. How you gonna pull the rug like
from everybody? Like, come on.
They'll bring it back when MarioSuper Mario turns 40.

(02:10:09):
Yeah, close. Super Mario 45 more.
And he's just moving around withback pains, yeah.
My honorable mention is this game hasn't actually been
cancelled, but it's damn short cancelled.
What's that? It's remember the what's the
game with the chick with the camera Jade?
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Beyond good and evil.
Beyond good and evil, yes. Oh, that's cancelled as fuck.
That's cancelled. That's a good one.

(02:10:30):
That's a good one, I think. That's probably not coming.
That's cancelled. I beat that game twice.
I played that game two times. It's a good game.
I played an HD remaster of it and then the original and I beat
it. I played the original version.
Question though, awesome. Can you still play a spider man
in the campaign or no? Yeah, if you download it, I
guess. Really.
Yeah, but he's like, but he doesn't pop up in the story.

(02:10:52):
I don't know. Well, no.
People had. Were you able to do it?
What or were you not? Are you asking?
Are you asking if you are able? To yeah, because if it's just
the campaign that's available iscan spider is spider man like
no, not done in that game, probably because he was like you
could use him online, but he wasn't he's not in one player.
He's not in the one player mode.No, no.
So he's not in it. Oh, I haven't tested that.

(02:11:12):
That's like, wait, so I mean tryit out, but what a screw job.
I would say no if I had a guess.No, sure.
Cuz there's a whoa. That's the foulest.
Shit wait wait, can you play theXbox One?
Oh. God, Lord, maybe that one still.
I'm so tidy all right now. If you have game pass.
It's actually a genuine. It was a great podcast, guys.

(02:11:33):
It's. Like that's all we got for you
today. That's it.
It's probably the most depressing podcast.
No, it really is just I thought it was a good idea.
Turn. Off I was like I regret my I
regret my my bad. It's my bad.
I thought it was a good topic. Next topic is games that were
saved and bought out. Yes, yes, got.

(02:11:54):
To go off with a high note man next week that list will be like
2 games I'll. Just say walk in bed again.
We'll bring it back back. We we save the games and then
like 5 minutes later they they cancelled.
No, Jesus, man, it's a dark timeVideo games right now.
It's dark. Yes, it's dark.
Actually, one more. It's dark time in the industry.
One more, one more, one more, one more.

(02:12:16):
I don't imagine. OK, I said it before.
Resident Evil 1.5 What? Was it?
Resident Evil 1.5, yeah. I forgot about that one.
What was that? The Game Boy Color.
No, it was 1.5. OK.
Yeah, he. Said the Game Boy Color.
It was the one in between 1:00 and 2:00, yeah.
OK, but. They redid it to make 2.
That's when she Claire was, but it I think her name wasn't even

(02:12:37):
Claire. For a different.
Kind of, yeah. She was in a bike outfit and she
like crashes a motorcycle and ends up in Rakusini with Leon.
But then they changed her to Claire.
It actually came out like unofficially it came out with
1.5. There's actually footage of
that. It crashes, but you can play
through. I think they actually, they
tried to get you as far as you can in a game and then it stops,
right. I don't know if they add an

(02:12:57):
ending to it, but yeah, you can download it.
But yeah, well, never came out. They should release that as like
a like updated, but like a Side Story.
Yeah, that's like an hour or twoor something like that.
That'd be pretty. Cool how you dope.
I remember that. That's all we got for you.
Yeah, man. Yeah, I read in the comments if
you have any other titles that got cancelled that we may have
missed. Yeah, I'm sure there's tons.

(02:13:19):
Well, we don't know all of them.Oh yeah, or maybe we do.
Those are some foul ones though,that we.
All right, Batman. I'll recommend some.
Yeah, we're going to recommend some therapists for anybody
who's depressed. That's good after looking at we
upon. The news in this topic bro.
Like dude. Mega Man Legends 3 I'm still
depressed. No, a lot of those I haven't

(02:13:41):
gotten over. Just cuz there's no Mega Man
legends at all. I haven't gotten over the
Marvel's Avengers and I haven't gotten over the multiverses.
Marvel Rivals has helped me kindof get over Avengers, but it's
