left arm on Beltran left arm wow.

All right, well yeah, what a good start every got everybody
out there. As you know if we see you in the
chat we give you the DHD the DHDgood though.
We appreciate y'all good news. Leave your comments in the chat.
We will get to you when we get the chance.
Of course, Big Tacos. Moderating the chat as we speak.
So, say, what's up boys? Good main character energy right

(01:39):
here at all. Saying, I only see hair and a
hairline that's all and then, you know exactly who it is not.
I could be anybody. I guess I just could be people.
I know it could be me. Aaron are like, you just take

(02:01):
off the wig. Just like every week we talked
about the games we've been playing.
So let's get on it, let's get inon it.

(02:22):
So let's start off with the first game.
We played co-op with me and turbo.
Oh, that's right guys. Play some more Groove.
Yes. Finally, for the first time in
two years literally. It's been two years.
I think I looked it up. I was like, oh damn, the last
war group was I see no threat tomy command.
Is this battle and we heard thatbattle.

(02:43):
Yes. So this was the Will you said
that I see? No, you know, I had flashbacks,
man. I was that's what I'd say in
part. He's like, oh yeah.
And it was a long, it actually, it actually went and way longer
than I thought. I thought it was gonna go like
maybe two hours it was longer than the stream.

(03:04):
That shit went three hours and change then I have wow.
Yeah, one place one battle. Yeah that's normal.
Oh, that was three hours. The last what we did Yahoo a cut
into the cut into the other stream.
The longest battle was the ship battle member in the snow.
That was like, I thought you said shit matter, shit, battle
shit. That'll know, that was a for our

(03:25):
battle, and we did that on line.We lost the save data for that
over locally. Yeah, the the hard drive ran out
of space in the middle of the battle, so then recorded this
shit. Yeah, so there was no way we
could recover it. Garbage is added, it did a
voiceover and said, listen, I did this, it moves here, it's
your move. I think it's time to do the

(03:46):
thing about it, it's Co-op, obviously and it's it's a very
ambitious game with the coop. But I think that also is the
reason why it was so long like each battles crazy long because
it's not just one you have threeturns technically.
Yeah, you got three turns and asfunny because like, you're not
only, you're not only like looking at your, like, your

(04:08):
move. You're working with a co-op
partner. So then you have your own troops
that you move. So it's like, you're almost like
Looking at the other person playing like, we help each other
out a little bit. But I think each per school, be
a person online espresso should be a very character in the game.
It's called an MMO, I'm sorry, one more battle laughing.

(04:32):
One more battle left. Yeah, we're finally going to put
the nail in the coffin and finish this damn game after
three years here at level 3, 5 7weepy games.
But sometimes it just takes us very long time.
Yeah, sometimes tears streaming.And Co-op takes a long time.
Salt and Sanctuary. While it's not a switch though.
It sounds like that. Yeah.

(05:09):
What do you think? Do you think they are?
You think they're making a sequel?
They are we have a trailer up with Could you didn't see it?
I didn't see it. No, yeah, there's a real.
Yeah, I think that's when they announced that I follow go.
I think, I threw that link in this court a while ago.
I thought it wouldn't do this. That's crazy.

(05:34):
Yep, you're probably doing work for the podcast, but I don't
know. They should call it.
You know, how you call your boobs?
Get focused, forget everything else.
I think it was Rated by a new Commander also who's in theirs,

(05:58):
is the he's also, he was like, they showed him in some new,
some new art form. Look pretty cool.
Yeah, they got a second one coming out.
It's coming. Ambitious, can they can they
change the frickin name of his special from T off to your for
something else? Do you understand that with
magic? Don't go to your Force.
You off work, I just threw it inthe group chat, it's actually
was three months ago when hot Americans looking forward to

(06:22):
that one. I can't believe I missed that
well, cared for, that's freakingcrazy how you can actually watch
it right now. All right, you guys go on with
the podcast. I want to be beside you.
I got to use to print to change.Yeah, no, but it was a good.
It was fun. It was a good streaming.
That was good. I did miss playing it.

(06:43):
I know right? I forgot a lot.
Lot of shit to know when we first I was like what the hell
are we doing? It's like, we had to look at the
unit's again. Well, yeah, three different
facilities that make units and like were they do again?
But clearly forgot a lot of shit, man.
I was like, oh wait, you could do that after two rounds, we
kind of were like okay yeah we need harpoons.
Yeah, it's warships. We're going to be attacking and
we right-click. That's a great thing about that
game. All right, all I did was once a

(07:09):
it's like it's moving along hereand we bought back versus we
brought back. First is the first multiplayer
versus with a live scoreboard? The first is versus the first or
the verses where live school horses?
It's curtains. Yara.
Anyway spider. Heck is a game we played.
Oh what? That spider pit.

(07:30):
What a spider Hickman. That's what a fun game.
What a fun game? That was no.
It was really, really, that was hilarious.
Asking really encourage everyoneto grab that game.
For the always tell ya, the learning curve.
Is there John? Oh, yeah.
That once, once you get a hold of it, it's it's a larious.
I think it's pretty easy to pickup and play.
And as you do this, you can either feel overly confident

(07:52):
about any win. No, you cannot now, it's it does
to there's a learning curve, butonce you get the hang of it,
it's like, okay, I kind of get the even when you do have the
hang of it, you don't know. Accidentally throwing my weapon.
I'm like, the hell am I doing seriously?
I like The Swinging mechanics. I like how it's like you double

(08:12):
basically you do a double jump in.
That activates your web. Yeah.
And then use the analog stick todirect it and yeah they have the
random weapons and some weapons that I think the fun of it also
is like knowing what the heck each weapon does remembering
that because most of them will get you killed.
Yeah especially when there's like a new one like we do it.

(08:35):
Look like right there. I like the lightsaber fights,
but it looks so easy to pretty cool control but it's really
not. Yeah, like sewing in the
lightsaber. Actually, when you have a
lightsaber yeah you kind of got a, does it hit let her be okay,
if you if you catch him because it'll kill but really fun game.
I got ripped off right there. By the way, very fun though.

(09:01):
Very tax is my friend. You had a.
Thank you note. Dax is my funky.
No no that's that's a that's a no that's a thing.
That's a thing. It reminds me of the same.
All right. The same type of game that that
kind of screaming and shit. Yeah absolutely the same type of

(09:26):
got to bring back to our fall. It was fun, having someone like
it up on the wall like an arrow in their chest.
Those types of games are great, especially before wasn't one of
them like more than four playersversus which one, huh?
Like Tower fall across Swan, oneof the systems is more item. 66,

(09:47):
I feel like that's instant death.
Remember that's like that by me again.
We had like, 200 by women. Oh, that's a.
I mean, that is better than 200 Bomberman.
Yes. Adding one more from what we
usually play was into. It won't be to 200, bomber be
Jesus. Yeah, I forgot what I was.
Slowly. Yes, that was a loading time.

(10:07):
Everyone is said and left. I was going to say the real Dana

(10:40):
Oh, I beat a truck to Yummy. Oh, you did.
Yes, it's a short game. It was only about I want to say
like five hours, jump to Mike, but dope dope game, the stories
freaking dope and the last couple of battles were pretty
rough. Look.
So pretty rough. These look good.
I do what you have to learn. Yeah, you got to learn the the

(11:01):
Parry system. You do get like power-ups stuff
like that, and upgrades but pretty dope like a Mortal
Kombat. Yeah, I do.
All right, that's pretty dope, man.
Thoroughly enjoyed the game. That file is real Raiden Vibes
raid and the other game I playedwas Vernal Edge nice.

(11:23):
And I'm about halfway through. I think I'm halfway through our
more than a little bit more thanhalfway through.
I'm almost done with this. This is I got to the part where
I got lost. Wow, sounds around going.
A bunch of places. Yeah, but I got lost.
I'm like, yeah, I don't know. Where the hell we go.
This goes. It's definitely dope.
How is fun? Have not played it yet, but it's

(11:45):
on my list. It does have a challenge.
Like it's fun to play and there the move sets are cool.
You I did learn a lot of new stuff, right?
But come by like as you can customize it also your load up
and go. Look at that school, your
specials and stuff. Yeah, actually I actually got
this is done by two people. I'm actually a way past this

(12:06):
part but yeah, that is. So it sweetly put up saying he
just found out a move. You can do even though you do
realize that's crazy. No, it's like the moveset.
You can customize completely customized.
So like if you get a power, if you could put it, you can assign
it to a button, press like a up on the d-pad down left, right?
And same with like, your magic and stuff.

(12:27):
Wow, pretty dope. It's pretty pretty, though.
I'm definitely messing with this.
You gotta check the house or that you can throw at any point.
It's better than I possibly could have imagined.
Yeah, it really is. It's like a 2d platforming
Castlevania Devil May Cry. Mashup.
Kinda. That's sort of devil Vania.
Yeah. Exactly.
Double Vania or it's a castle cry.

(12:54):
As the controls of the Mega Man.Yeah, well edges on.
So one more with a because you can shoot diagonal and stuff
like that, also like that you can't do it Megaman but but it
feels right. Oh yeah.
Now they did. They did a hell of a job on the
controls man. That that was very, very good.
Oh, I see mass-produced. So these kind of play soldiers

(13:14):
next. I highly, highly recommend that
game and game is special very, very special actually miss
playing that game. That's how much I liked it.
It the steam have a summer sale,right?
Not even sure they always have some time not yet I think it's
next week they're going to startthe summer so it's saying
soldiers l in Vernal ages on. So right now there's always a
freaking. So every week, there's like a

(13:35):
publisher sale or freaking car Silva of the sea rats.
I heard got update or a fix somestuff.
You guys still playing that, we are hell.
Yeah, I think I think hit boxes and stuff like that and that's
good. Okay we did we had one
playthrough on me. Was a lot of fun, that was
great. Yeah, we definitely like it.
Listen, it's like a simple, coolstylistic fun game.

(14:00):
How far did you guys get closer to write?
Everything gets stuck at all? Yeah, doesn't seem like it's
gonna be a long game though. Yeah.
Give me like three or four playthroughs those.
Yeah, I would say four four places depending on how much of
it was about eight bastard about810 hours like that, something
like that as long as we can tellthe difference between the

(14:20):
foreground and the background. Yeah, that's that's There's a
problem with that was what game was it?
That happen a lot actually What was it?
Narita boy, hakan. You didn't know you can jump on.
Yeah, that's why I was stuck here.

(14:40):
Getting lost, man. I'm like, yo, where the fuck do
I go? It's like, oh no way, you can go
in here. Yeah, just press up you moron.
What the hell? Blends into the background?
Anyway, chalk. Of course, you play Street
Fighter, 64 fighter Fridays. I tried.
How did it go that came to play?That night threw me a beat down

(15:09):
liking, beat the crap out of me.Okay, um, you gonna beat the
crap out of me. All right, got it.
Um, Everybody every Honda chocolate, I'm sorry.
I wish I was able to do it was that I was not.

(15:38):
Yeah, it is. Yep,
it's quite the learning curve. Quite the learning curve.
So, learning, you put that work in.

(15:59):
I mean, you get nasty at the game, but People got nasty and
I, you know, I had to like go towork Caffrey, Fox Cafe, Fox had
poor chalk. Yes he saw he saw some of the
beatdowns not circles playing and we ended up fighting or you
gone off and on because he just kept beating the crap out of

(16:20):
both of us. So he was the main character in
yourself. Yeah.
Pretty much quite the streak butI ended up snapping that streak.
Okay. So, you know, and I almost won
the last set, it was 22. And I think By like a slipper.
I was mad. I slipper.
Yes, I have a feeling. They're going to take a little a
second date. Why?

(16:40):
Because I don't want it to come out the same years.
Three bodies. I think you'd shut up.
I don't know. I don't think it is coming out
this year. It's supposed to get a date for
its. Wasn't it supposed to be
November? A Mortal Kombat.
As far as what they announced? I mean it could be like
Christmas I don't know. Who knows man?
IBI yeah, I'm here for it but I feel like The I feel like it's

(17:03):
not coming out this year they ohyeah, I mean they announced that
the characters business JP. Is that the guy that the old
dude hat. Whatever old dude zoning.
He is annoying. He looks like he belongs in that
Dick. Tracy game.
Looks like he doesn't look like he's innocent cable.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
Like SNK. Like he's like there's
something. Yes, there's something my man's

(17:27):
in the wrong place. The hitboxes are huge.
They do a ton of damage and they, any, oh, and I always seem
to get like punishment, countered.
You know what I mean? Like, yeah.
Which adds more damage to it. It's crazy, bro.
But, um, my name is fireman, love that game.

(17:48):
That's all true fighter. Friday's will continue until
further notice. There we go, there we go, gets
too rough if I can continue playing.
After that. I'm I mean I'll be fine because
I had the model combat either. Oh, you did.
Yeah, that's definitely coming out this year.

(18:10):
That's definitely let September.That's definitely coming.
I'll take, there's going to be adelay in that.
They did a stress test, but online, my family went pretty
good good. Does anyone know if it's Co-op
or no? I, that would be awesome if they
don't think so. The characters or whatever that
they kind of showed but it looked like Co-op didn't look

(18:31):
like That's the, that would be pretty fun.
I want world tour mode. People already have it in there,
like, believe it or not, as to people really, you know.
Yeah, it play it. It's like world tour mode and
she fought. It's kind of like final fight.
Yeah, really? I haven't played it yet, but
you'll have other cards come in and fight with you against
people like, you know, I wasn't other people, but the computer

(18:53):
so the person that need to add amold like in Street Fighter,
Alpha 3, a 2 1 2, 1, 1 / 2, computer versus one.
That was cool. I could have sworn it was also
in summer fighter. He X right dramatic.
I don't remember. I think it was accept the X3.
You think it was probably? Yeah.
I think that was two players on the X3 had I think it was like a
three like a two-on-one. I remember that was the only one

(19:15):
I had it. I don't remember playing.
She buddy. X3 at all.
I remember seeing it. I never played it either.
But at a bad time. Yeah.
It was a fun game, man. Anything at the Tekken 3, I
couldn't mask. It's crazy.
Series can't even give remade. Like it's it's a product of its

(19:36):
time. It's all it is.
Fighting is fighting ex white layer e^x.
Yeah, that's what that is. Now the same people who made
that although some of those characters that were in that
game on Indiana, really like skullomania, whatever name
scoffs I got it and they go crazy.

(19:59):
Like that's what that's what street Pottery exits.
Okay. Now So it's still a remake that
I liked it. It was it was out of it is it
was the first like 3D Street Fighter, right?
Well yeah but it was still two polygons but still to the yeah
but every 3D fighting game was back.

(20:19):
Yeah this would polygon. Yeah, yeah fighting e^x lay an
egg. Fighting e^x layer.
Yeah. Okay.
I should be on sale. Right shit.
Try them out. A big update on that.
Made it look crazy. Good, combos were ridiculous.
Yeah, like a hundred cows. Ridiculous, a doing crazy stuff.
Well, if the price is right, this is wrong Baba.

(20:49):
Like, the funniest sound that sounds like so Clash, because,
like, a few mess up or say it bad.
Joe, can you hear that? You're like, damn it adds to it.
That's the perfect sound of it. Really is imagine losing in the
game show, and then, yeah. Now, I really feel like this.
Thank you, not only did I lose my money when that lawnmower and

(21:10):
I lost a ton of my dignity along, even if you lose in
Street Fighter, you hear that every time you lose like, dude,
like I can't hear that. That would have been, it would
have been the trombone. I'm sorry that tuba sound the
entire night. It'll add sound effects to that.
I think. I'm probably sure they would you

(21:43):
wouldn't know because you don't know So what else do I played a
little to k23? There's new, there's no
wrestlers available. It was.
I used Randy Orton and Matt riddle Against The Steiner
Brothers. Oh, I don't know.
There it is. Yeah, yeah.
And Steiner old school style. Yeah.

(22:04):
Okay. Not the big pop of fun.
Not a big pump. Pump totals to be the big bad
booty, Daddy. Yeah, pretty much.
Yeah, hold are. So my oh, what kind of tow ball
one and two reference? Yeah.
E Plato ball to Lost over time. Songs on what's going on.
Cobalt it was dope. So ball one was ahead of his
time too but tobal 2 is still 60friends.

(22:26):
Why does it look so dope? Well then have it didn't have
textures so it's kind of odd butit was a dirty never came out.
Never came on the u.s. whatever it was.
It was it was it the quest QuestQuest.

(22:47):
Yo, you got leg swept by a panda.
So there's like a big hair has like a spider and shit.
Not do it. Ridiculous, getting spammed on a
move just about to kick. You can do shit gets a load of I
thought I was crazy when they first had the quest month they
just because all we had was thatTekken final fight mode.

(23:10):
Yeah. And I was like compared to toe
balls like hey this ain't it. But yeah that game is great.
Seto ball to and never never came out.
This is where yeah, where Saul or Enix to go?
Always talking about. Yes, the Pentagon, it should
make all three. Absolutely Cafe Fox.
Yes, here's some letters that they have are guys.

(23:31):
Got this gun. You're playing it.
Yeah, dude, playing it. It was pretty cool.
It was like just like Smooth. I was like, Virtua Fighter
symbol. Like they did a virtual fighter
like that on Saturday, that's crazy.
That ran like that and remember the Fireballs.
Yeah, it had moved it, still holds up an energy, drain your

(23:55):
life. She's dead.
So, that's pretty much it. That's all you played, man.
Yeah, man is eg EG yeah. You know what?
We see gradual gotta do to k23. Of course there's the green.

(24:18):
Now, we know we gotta do. Man has managed GM mode.
We could do that or we could do tag team.
There's a lot that we could do and there's a lot of other games
too. I know that we have in the
pipeline so we gotta, well, it'sbeing that you have something
called firefighters, you should throw some total.
I mean, you know, yeah, footballat all.
For a while. Yeah, tobol Friday's.

(24:39):
That would be, that would be a perfect spot for you.
Yeah. Right now.

(25:00):
That's the only thing I had a chance.
He has one eye. Be the shrine.
Nothing? Nothing?
Eventful? Nothing.
Nothing. Really?
I was just like a busy week, I was too busy.
It was question. Question question, I had there
was a game that you haven't brought up in a very, very long
time. I was wondering what happened to

(25:20):
it. All right.
Midnight, Sun, the marble game. Yeah, no, I don't have it.
I have. I thought you bought it.
That was me. I was the one that said I got
really. I could have sworn.
You said I'm thinking about, butwaiting for it to go down price,
midnight, Sons is dope and then I will get for the Xbox.
I got it on sale. I think, was like 25 bucks,
really? For the Xbox.
No, man. Can see I got my PC.

(25:42):
I forgot that piece doesn't count so console.
He sees, yeah, that's no console.
Wow. Wow, even though it has all the
console games. Yeah, exactly.
Pay the pay the full price. Wait, till next year when you
can buy it for 20 bucks, it'll be I'll be on sale next month
because it will be on game. It'll be on sale next year,

(26:02):
because they have no choice. I'm not going to make any more
sales, might as well put Damn, and not going to make any more
sales. Why is that was a failure.
They said didn't do as good as we thought it was, but it's like
our brains and it's assess RPG. So, I'm going to be all over
again is a very successful strategy.
Let's get doesn't play like a card game at all.
Does it doesn't play? It's plays more like a tactical

(26:26):
RPG, turn base. Yeah, and I thought you would
that's all I was trying to go back to Fire Island, engage with
that battle. But about shenmue 3 though.
Ha ha ha. Damn, what happened to that?
Oh shit. Yeah that's right.
I completely forgot about that guy.
How far did you even get in that?
I got out. I got pretty far into it.
Actually I'm on you forgot aboutat least 10 hours into the game.

(26:49):
10 hours. Yeah.
I'm like that. I wasn't thinking like a team.
Yeah, man, I have to play because I know it runs better
than the PS5 and I haven't I ain't you got to start it over?
No, no. I transfer from the PS4.
He just hates the PS5. So he's you know he's how hey
The PS5. I just have a problem with
Sony's business practices. That's why you haven't played it

(27:10):
because you hate it. Fro Activision, Microsoft
merger, okay? So that's my problem with
selling. Did you download the actual part
of Final Fantasy 7? I downloaded it whisk and no, I
didn't. It's got 22 minutes left as of
now I've 22 minutes left of the freaking install.
Yeah, the install. And then it says it's I see it

(27:30):
already says a 20 bucks for the upgrade, right?
But I don't know. Doesn't include freaking
intermission. No.
Or is it just like it's looking like an upgrade fee just to make
it the PS4 version, A PS5, you know, PS5 or don't do it.
That's but it didn't say anything about the you freaking
intermission. So I'm like, I'll sure that's I
don't want to pay 20 bucks for Ithink it was Ray upgrade.

(27:52):
I think it was a fucking I did it before the PSP version came
out. Yeah.
And I bought the separate part but that's only available on
PS5, so, right? You had to do that.
So it doesn't say nothing. I know it's 20 bucks, whatever
you people. And a charging 20 bucks for the
upgrade. So I'm assuming I was like this.
I'm like I this should include the uffizi.
I would think how dedicated I amvery good at 40 bucks.

(28:15):
I'm very very yeah, I'm very, very tired.
Yeah. It's not 40 bucks, 20 bucks.
I'll pay 20, which I deserve it for free, but I'll pay the 22
deserve it for free. I deserve it.
Whoo. So these developers they just
make games for free for you, man.
You get the support I bought integrate, okay and it didn't
have Download it by force, I deserve it for free.

(28:38):
It doesn't matter if I bore me, get that benefit, all right.
They shouldn't allow for the second-hand Market to exist.
If they have a problem with, they don't want it to doesn't
exist in Japan, I'll make that happen.
I'll make that happen. Microsoft destroys, everything,
it touches. That's problem, midnight, sun

(29:00):
has to go on. So I'll get a 30 bucks.
I'm not paying more than 30, getthey got a freakin a storm deal.
Elsie. They got some cool DLC for that
to analytic. It looks amazing, it looks
great. I know we're going to lab
working on a gaming that's that's the last.
You'll see the storm I think, isthe last, you'll see obviously
more computer now and start working on more vs.
Capcom for sticks, what you beenplaying them.

(29:21):
I've been playing Street Fighter6 but yes I've been playing the
story mode and I ran into the arcade in there and I checked it
and final fight was in it and I was like, let me play.
I'll fight right now. I just play the first level.
I was like, you know what? I'm on a second level already.
So I was just funny how that damn lines.

(29:42):
It does asked him, I was like, man, I just cycle through other
characters became cheap as hell.Do they kill you?
With my two moves ahead? It is red.
They just running like chest bump, you and your happy and
he's gone hot. Take final flights overrated.
Oh, I mean it was one of the best heavy metal in the chat.

(30:18):
Because it's an arcade use. I wasn't paying.
Just put credited worse. Last boss that last boss.
He's strapped to a wheelchair man in the wheelchair.
Dude. What a crossbow.

(30:43):
Without shooting arrows, awful awful boss.
Well priced Christ, I don't kickthem through the window with a
gun. It slow motion.
It's amazing. It's so hit the fluid but I mean
listen the game obviously it doesn't have the lineage that
the Streets of Rage has now but when Streets Raised three treys
got influenced by final fight. Oh yeah, absolutely.

(31:03):
Yeah definitely. Yeah they're enemies got
influence enjoyed. I enjoyed Donald's right but I'm
a double dragon Streets of Rage guy.
Yeah. But I don't think wait anything
from final fight, although, it should have been, they should
have been kept constant of milk.That yeah.
Like they did Street Fighter. It was supposed to be Street
Fighter. Yes.
So they might as well have milk.That is where they should make

(31:25):
it over. Just just do know what they need
to do is with the with Street Fighter.
Alpha grab these and add Street Fighter, characters and that's
it. That's all sort of say that's
it. Should have done that.
Yes and that calls me but I'll vehicle I don't fight he fine
whatever? Yeah, final fight the street
fighter and they should do. Final fake actors in Street
Fighter. Six just saying nine, I keep it

(31:46):
in. Keep it on.
I'm seriously, they should have gone Co, especially since
Kody's. Like now the mayor and I
separate the occult. Yeah, keep that.
If she found out, I want to keepit out.
You gotta do that, keeps she putout.
They already make row, so they crossed over into Street Fighter
running in that you're running through Metro City.
Like you can you can sit there and look at a giant statue of
hag, aren't I got definitely definitely he should be in the

(32:08):
game. That's my that's my hot take.
I was surprised though. It was in there too.
The wait time finding love what my character, likewise gave me
these same with magic tools in the demo Pete, magic sword like
that. I gotta beat that again.
I don't know that it might name in first place that mode though,
is, you can unlock costumes for characters, right?

(32:28):
If you find the Masters and you give gifts and stuff like that
crazy but you know, five people online, you just play that mode,
only play that much cheese cheese like that.
People on my oh I got them I finally got my re ranked the

(32:48):
worst. He's gold one right now gold but
uh I keep playing the way I'm playing.
He's about to be silver and I'm working on getting my Ken placed
so okay, well it's too many games out right now and is I
still get to file fancy 16 and Iknow that's going to take over
everything. So I got two plays other stuff

(33:10):
like it. Yep.
But yeah, that's probably why. I'll be playing Nexus office and
hopefully get through it like a week.
We'll see that's 2010 10 hours aday.
I don't know if I can, it's crazy.
The game is what for a week. It's like 70 hours, not knowing
it, but I'm gonna try and put insome time people put in hours
and it's like around, 66, basically Skies of Arcadia.

(33:43):
If you play just that, not a bigdeal.
But yeah, that's the only games I could play for like 10 hours
straight without no, hmm. Okay, that's right.
Baby. Boom.
Speaking about you, but I finally finished the game, it
was right before the podcast, because I didn't play it at all.
Last week, Greek, Greek to use of his or yeah.
I was on the last stage. Last time I was on a podcast,

(34:04):
was one last stage. Last stage, has no enemies.
It's all puzzles, really. And it's, and it's right at my
threshold of Tolerance. It was right.
I was like, I'm not liking this,they got you because all three
characters do different shit. So you have to do this thing
through this thing and they have, like a telep, there's like
teleporters everywhere and you have to, like, oh, I gotta get

(34:25):
this guy on this side. So I have to put the little dude
on one teleporter and wait for the big, dude, Popeye the other
teleporter so they could switch places and go it was so
annoying, right? It was fucking annoying.
The last boss I didn't know, wasthe last boss is really.
It was just that's all it was just constant.
Love it all know you're tough part is navigating you three

(34:46):
people. And I'm like, I'm just going to
group them up and attack them when he moves them.
Like oh my God. That was it.
And I didn't like when I beat them you you know, get your item
and then like the place that you're in starting to crumble so
everywhere that I just was as enemies everywhere.
So I have to get out and some other puzzle kill kill the

(35:07):
enemies. I mean it's not really maybe
there's one area that was a little stupid but like it was
pretty easy to get out of there,but there.
His enemies. Legit everywhere.
Is there a timer? No, I thought there was, I
thought there was, I was like, well, I'm dead because I'm,
like, I fell down like, all the way at the bottom and nothing
happened to me, but I got out and then it goes to a cutscene,
I'm like, okay, you're on the Airship.

(35:28):
Okay, cool. Cool.
Little cutscene. And I'm like, what I feel, this
is it. This is over, isn't it?
That's fucking over and credits.I said, nope.
Yeah, that's what they said in the on Google around 9 hours and
I didn't like nine hours. Change.
But it looks like it's highly highly possible.

(35:49):
It can have a sequel. Hmm.
I like just from the last image they showed.
I was like, okay, would you liketo see a sequel?
I would love to see a seagull. And can we fucking do this
Co-op? Give you see coal-based sound?
Mad ain't enough is enough. Maybe you're right.
I'm trying, I'm trying to get him on the podcast.
I can see how my, how, well that's old then hopefully sold
well, but, um, you got a sequel.It was fun.

(36:11):
So now I could finally go back to Horizon.
I don't what they do. A call, I'll buy it, I'll buy
that shit up. I'll pay full price for Co-Op
them about the first one. What I want a full price?
No discounts, if it's $20 no gold in WoW, spend cash, money
cash, money, same as what Cash Money, saves money, same as

(36:36):
gold, same thing as gold. Wait, what?
No, don't get the hell don't game.
I'm cool very fun but to answer your question podcast, go Jake,
no, it is not better than a salon.
No, nope. Okay, soldiers is better.
A salon is better but this is just short game.
This is like 99 hours. Hmm.

(36:58):
As long as I like 15:18 short games are good.
Yep, soldiers was like, 32 They're more thought out.
But this one has some cool ideas.
Like that, like a little shop. You could buy stuff a little
town. You can learn techniques and
stuff. But there's nothing wrong with a
solid game. Yeah, that's this quick quick

(37:19):
Sol game. But if they did a sequel, no
padding. Give me Co-op.
Make it a little bit longer pause and the but Horizon is
next, I stopped playing it for two weeks because that's what
I'm saying. Yes, I gotta go on this and then
figure out what games got to come after that.
You said, you played fire. Them also are.
Yeah we play fire him, cool thing.

(37:39):
I looked up today terrible like this the dialogue between two of
the characters the some of them characters Sauron and I already
with this a whole fucking dialogue with the more I play.
The more I keep thinking to myself, damn Fire Emblem.

(38:03):
Engage is really good. It really like if I had a chart
of different things that all theFire Emblem games, do the best
firewood, engage gets number onein a lot of areas.
Yeah, it really does it get someone a lot of various
gameplay. Definitely gameplay is

(38:23):
definitely like top. Yep, fucking top, same thing
with three houses music. Top.
Yeah, but radiant Dawn though, this is the trainer Dawn.
They still can't beat radiant Dawn their maps and their
characters best. I think it's criticized a lot.
Like they'll the support suck the support shocked.

(38:44):
I was like, put Nolan and Aaron together and tell me that their
support suck like you see effects?
Yeah. Exactly.
Okay. It's like they still they still
have cut scenes where they talk to each other and stuff like
that. So you know, these characters
are Path of Radiance Islands. It was a big, it's gonna not the
main character in Path of reading Path of Radiance, it's
Ike. Okay, Emma Kai.

(39:05):
I'm sorry, sorry. No, no, I kept at the radiance
radiant Dawn is Micaiah and IkeaIke, I thought you started
makya. Wow!
It's somebody, that's all I've been playing.
All right, cool, cool. Cool cool.

(39:26):
Yeah definitely does right now. I think what we got is, it's
time for something. Something we always do.
After we talk about the games weplayed, go to go ahead.
Tell him to put that camera on me.
It is time. For the news, I didn't even meet

(39:58):
you Mike to didn't even hear youat all which is great.
Well harmonizing was good no sounded pretty awful.
Now guy trying to say that he said where's that from?
It's from you Smurf has three All right exactly.
All right saying that but the thing is not trivia question

(40:19):
because nobody would win. Assassin Creed mirages
comparatively. Tiny map is great news for a
series that needs more Focus. So what we just talking about
games being smaller and more compact being there, yes,
because it's a solid Vision Without padding, a bunch of
extra things that people get tired of.
Yeah, it's not see that you get your money's worth.

(40:41):
So yeah, I'm cool with that. A lot of people's was saying
that the other says no screws that came out last three I think
grind. Lar to Big Odyssey is massive
grinding. Ellen, around the world.
It is still part of that. So, plus you couldn't even get
past that in Parts because it was like, like level locking.
Yes, they took that away though,right?
Well, the the fact you had to pay for it to get some extra.

(41:05):
Yeah, I didn't know they took that out because people are
pissing it if they epistle. And what was the one I was like,
God of War. The one that the North's Norse
mythology, mythology is that Odyssey.
Know a lot. The last one that came out of a
hollow ha, ha ha ha. I couldn't remember the name but
uh yeah. Now when I think that's what
they I think they you can you can you can get levels Faster by

(41:30):
paying for it but then people would like but it was too it was
still they did that just to makemoney.
Yeah I mean it was still combat heavy, it wasn't like there's
really wasn't that much stealth.From what I heard well wasn't
Assassin's Creed exactly as it is.
I mean it hasn't been for the last four girls.
At least I forgot which one it was.
But they when they had like someareas, you would infiltrate And

(41:51):
they're like, oh the their level10, your level 1, you shoot an
arrow in the head takes away. Nothing.
I'm like kind of sit with her onthe head.
Yeah, we have to if you're running out of his eye socket.
Yeah. In his but couldn't hurt him.
I'm like the levels thing is stupid.
They didn't even like put a helmet on him or anything like
that for no, it's nothing. Wow.

(42:14):
Yeah, well he tried to go in a different direction with that
the origin of but that Origins it just looks like one and unity
and that's great the best. Yeah, you know these the best in
the series fight me on that looks like a return to form.
If you are a fan of the originalSanskrit, lot of people were
saying that they came out too many too fast and it's too
similar. Yeah.
So they had to take a break. Yeah, it was what like, yeah, I

(42:37):
think there were recent five years again, every year, then
they said, two years, two years.Sometimes reboot should I say
weirdo? Awesome.
Then 3 came out. I'm like there's a cashmere you
guys got stopped and they did. I'm looking forward to a new

(42:58):
one. Yeah, it's about time.
Same shit was Assassin's Creed. There was no hoods.
What was the point of the hoods?They were there with their
weaker than the fucking helmets Ubisoft?
They know how to milk shit and that's, you know.
Yeah, it took him two years to make the game but They also made
the map like it was repetitive because they did the same thing
over and they put the, you know,they just patted the whole game

(43:19):
G in a fan of Ubisoft since Assassin's Creed one who's the
tools to is amazing. Ever.
Seen Prince of Persia, like, that was, my dad's last time I
mess with you. Be.
So and Brotherhood course, Raymond really Brotherhood was
Brotherhood was awesome. Arguably.
Probably honestly, I didn't playit.
That's my favorite Brotherhood. Three was even even it was
boring at the beginning. It was awesome.
Three weeks good. And a lot of which was

(43:55):
Very main character in three? No, it's not Donna.
What is it like Assassin's Creedtent?
What it is? What's the number?
Fighter though, but not like a fake like extant, like Black

(44:17):
Flag was for was for, don't you think LIF?
I've but then you got to count also the the Chronicles series
because it was really three of those that we don't cut ties
with Arjun. Those are so Odyssey.
Valhalla it was wonderful Origins with the the brother and
sister. Well the topic that was they
changed the combat but it was good.

(44:39):
It was good. It was apparent that a pirate
once? No no, no.
That's black flag. Flag was fun, but it was good.
I had I didn't like the story, but it was very good.
It was very good. I miss.
When they had sci-fi in the Assassin's Creed, that was HOH
with the real story. That was cool.
I wish they would just add it, at least.

(45:00):
That was the cool twist. Keep my attention I did see that
hole. I love art.
I love that sci-fi story. I will tell you nothing.
They do they come out to drop the ball, they just dropped it.
Oh, you're just in this area. Now, you're back in time, they
got they got to bring back home.Is Co-op, really hit very good.
I believe this. And usually there's always that,
right? No, I didn't hear anything about
a mirage Bob multiplayer. I don't think that they said,

(45:22):
they have more surprises and stuff to announce.
So I didn't hear, maybe they'll let me the Japanese 1901 when
they said someone had multiplayer in it.
That would be a big surprise. It was announced that one which
one Jade you talking about. Hey, is that the that the one
I'd say was in Japan. I'm not sure there's so many
dimensions. 13, new ones. Yeah, Thor red, shaded.
But Jade, maybe read, but Jade. I think there was Another one

(45:44):
where the character looked like,it could be Ezio hmm.
So I don't fucking know. I heard it's going to be a new
Silent Hill. Assassin's Creed crossover and
not yo, silent silent. Silent Assassin will be a dope
Fashions. He'll be called

(46:13):
You play Silent? Yeah, let's go people.
Oh no, I'm getting. This is a discrete.
I'm definitely in this one. I don't know the way I play
Mirage. I still want to play.
I have to beat thighs. Like I'd be freaking Valhalla
and airplanes. It probably is a fun game.

(46:37):
I'll see what I got. Pretty much but of course still
there. There is still some self Odyssey
was Was 300 the game, which is agreat game.
Yeah, it wasn't set screen. Obviously was like, Says theme
song. Blind Men.

(47:15):
Should appreciate that. I'm glad, I'm glad it's not as
large as those games because it was a little overwhelming.
Yep. It's too big.
It's like games aren't too much to do.
Give me twenty something hours. We're good.
Yeah, so people support this one.
Yeah. Hopefully, I don't know if he's

(47:36):
gonna be 70 bucks. Who knows?
Short games are underrated. Meant to be found Game Pass.
That's what that's what, Microsoft takes off or Ubisoft.
Yes. Let us know in the comments if
you're pissed that it's a tiny map or smaller map or do you
want a larger game? Let us know in the comments.

(47:58):
Lots of Square Enix staff. Squeenix they want you to, they
want to, they want to remake Final Fantasy 6, it's good
choice. Yeah, the staff wants to do it.
I would like to know how becausethat game is the large game.
Make it. I want to give it a good 10-15

(48:18):
years and we'll find out. That's the problem.
Final fact, that's the problem. Exactly how it was, you know,
you know how it dies chibi Style.
No. You know what I would do
anything. I would like to see this game
as, and I saw it by accident on YouTube was like a fan-made
thing, but I would like a maid found fancy.
Not know. It was it was a fan made of this
game this but done as tactics. Really.

(48:39):
Yeah. Why and I would like to see this
done like, Try no strategy. Oh, exacting to the HD.
I would like it done. Like I would love that.
That's the answer. I think that'd be so would take
as long as them doing a Final Fantasy, 7 type remake, maybe
touch up, you know, obviously touch up the grabs a little bit
but you know, keep that same style.
I think it's strategy. Role-player techniques and shit
like that map's. I think it could work.

(49:02):
I would love that. Yeah, the problem with them
trying to make it like crazy. You mean, there's too much time
he takes too much time. No one has 20 years to wait for
this to create about the Creator's.
Who did that won't be around when It's out and the staff have
the staff never even seen without fancy six hits he has
they're all new people to have to be but if they did it like a

(49:25):
just a higher definition versionof it like you said the to DHD
would work and people would be ecstatic because it's more
similar to what the old game looked like but Nostalgia
purposes plus it's crazy lookingor a you didn't chronic lighting
and everything like this that's tiles is beautiful.
Everyone likes that shit now butI'm sure people would love to
see it the On remake style like seven.

(49:46):
It would love to see that. Yes, but you're gonna need way
more stat. Oh my God.
Way more staff. And in the storyline is like two
times the size of Final Fantasy 7, that's my favorite in the
series. It's this is my favorite so many
characters. There's so many Side Stories
there and yeah it would be great.
It's one of the best if not the best Final Fantasy and you know,
it's messed up is show the worstfootage to look at fucking

(50:08):
stupid ass low-budget. Fucking octopus.
It's one. It's the one title.
It's never gotten like a real remake.
They got pizza remakes out. Yes, it's so close like that and
it's Coop. But they remade found fancy for
with the chibi graphics on DS. What?

(50:29):
Regardless, it's still a remake of it.
Although I would prefer to see that but like it's this crazy
because it's been too big of a game to try and take the steps
to try and get that done over there.
We need an entire department to just dedicate And that they
didn't like a whole studio. That they'll be no Final Fantasy
17, if they're working on that they'd have to have.

(50:52):
We're going on seven and sixteentogether.
They'd have to split the studio and I have one working on the
Retro remix and then have another Studio at the other half
of the studio, working on the new ones.
Yeah. It's the only way they'd have to
start tomorrow and we have to wait about 10 years.
Yeah. Much for the first part.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, they'll be no disc by
then, it's all just download. See, I want when it comes to

(51:14):
that. Remake that extreme remake that
seven had. I would want that for like
Phantasy Star 1 and 2. I think that that would be more.
That would be in case they need.Those are like an RPG.
He didn't play seven combat. Like what does that the way it
looks? It's the graphics.
I tell you didn't play seven. It did you?
No, I did not know. I'm probably gonna play it close
to the end of the year. I'll probably have time.
It's a good trade-off between a real time and it was it a TB.

(51:38):
Yeah. I like that.
It's a good trade-off there. I think they did a perfect there
but now to 16 I came out, I was like get rid of it all special,
got a war to fight thing is likewhen you think of remake for
you, think of the things that happen in six in the characters
like we're just just look at Tara alone.

(51:58):
I'd rather see it as a like tarek as an Arcane animation.
Like I rather see it. Yeah, pretty much.
But that's okay. It's so that.
That story is so dope, it is so good.
I mean, he was so I just don't Ijust don't see it happening, no
matter how much they want to do it.
Unless it's adolescence to DHD and they just take it that.

(52:19):
We cannot go down three years. Cool.
But, you know, you can't they dothat.
They do have to pay travel. You have to forget about any
game that squares making. Yeah, all the pretty much.
Yeah. Shut up all down, shut down.
But in all honesty, if they tookthe team that did the path
Traveller and they worked on a spin-off of Final Fantasy 6, I

(52:39):
was getting mixed up his three. But I'm six and they just took
it. That way I'll be fine with that
and I would buy it. Same people all the people who
would buy the better. Remake version will buy that
one, huh? Yeah, just shut down the whole
student view and just call it Final Fantasy Enix.

(53:14):
Remake of that. I saw the the fanbase one.
I look crazy. I would love it that way because
I never played. Nine is the with a main
character. Kind of looks like a like Alex
Kidd like a monkey type. You kind of like a yeah, I would
like a room like that. I'd like a redesign of my
daughter Story. The game is great.
I heard like one of the best ones I would like to play it but
that character really do me livehim so they don't care about
remaking 80? No I swear they shouldn't well.

(53:39):
That was what the main can. We do like everyone?
Everyone hated that. The only people who like eight
If you only play date, if that was the first game you played
Final Fantasy. Because that first Final Fantasy
is May 8 gets a lot of squall about a lot of squall leonhart,
but his, his gun sword was dope though.
And I don't do it for me, either.

(54:01):
Except when you fire the freaking concern, you gotta run
after the blade. Catch it and I wasn't feeling
the, I wasn't feeling the story that story was not good.
That was not feeling the story. It was like, although I bought
it, I've had issues with final fantasies Main Over the years.
Yeah we know a couple of largelydocumented plays you haven't,
you haven't eaten since 60, you know I've done so much.

(54:22):
Just looking at the characters like other you will likely come
on design more, not more, the development like like cloud has
cool design. I like cloud has his not back in
the day when he was a little puppy with a Popeye's Chicken.

(55:13):
kind of, Silly everyone. Look cool.
Sarasota, main case on Cecil whatever you want.
Whoever's fucking name was cool.Tara's cool dark clouds, cool.
The new guy, the new game that guy's cool.
Design school wasn't a bad design.
It was it was just a boyband boyband, a car.

(55:34):
Yeah. There was the bad boy.
There was the Yeah, really my thing is so much

(56:16):
cooler, that characters a deadpan, though. 13 characters
are kind of stopped. None of them a personality, I'm
sorry, do with afros. None of them had percent
dedicated to put. Yeah, dude, look at him, they
had an afro with a baby. I got a problem with it was not
a nest. It was gonna say,

(57:14):
Early copies of pet the rabbit. That's all I think.
I think. I think we need to have another
topic. Yeah, well those yeah,
mistreatment misrepresenting ratio games.
We haven't talked about, you know, but I would prefer less.
Yes, I would love a Final Fantasy 6 remake of any sort

(57:35):
which is just not just a pixel remake which I bought anyway.
But yeah, I would look forward to that, but I don't know if I
would even remember because I probably be seen on when it
comes out. Let us know if you have a plan
to make this game, but I don't know how we went from racism.

(58:13):
Parts of tech for instant YouTube games.
What so, this news was interesting because this is one
of the things that got us excited about Stadium Stadium.
Will Google is doing when they first announced it.
Yeah. And they never it never liked
materialized and I was like, could you can watch your
favorite streamer and then hop in and the game while he's

(58:35):
playing his demo. Whatever the hell such a dope.
Such a dope way to sell it. Yeah.
And I was on board ever happenedonce.
Nope, everything else that they told.
About happen and they really pushed on the 4K streaming and
all this stuff, it really wasn't.
They need to do that. But yeah, the reason that they
closed down to begin with they said was because of the cost of
keeping it open. Obviously if you're not making

(58:57):
any money and you get a bad planto try and make money, it was a
bad plan but the tech was good. The tech was good.
I play Platformers, the timing was on and I was dreaming like
there was no delay early and I was literally count me touching
the button and see him. I jump, it was crazy.
It was crazy because that doesn't happen on.
But the fact that they are, I always say that.

(59:17):
Okay, even if they close now stadia they got to use that text
or something. They got to use that type of
something. It was too good.
It's awesome. And they said they were selling
it to whoever's looking to try and do that stuff selling it.
Yeah. So, it's like, which I, then
they said, no, we must cancel the completely.
It's gone. We're not selling anymore.
They probably couldn't even, don't probably wants to keep it
going later. They couldn't even do it that

(59:38):
way, but I don't understand. I listen Google, the one thing
I've had solid. And as all the things they close
down, and shut down the one, then it kept going is YouTube.
So if they can add something to YouTube that even twitch, like
I'm not a stop competing with Twitter because Twitter is gonna
kill itself anyway. Apparently that's what.

(59:58):
It's how ya which not a person. Yeah, it's taking advantage of
its own. But yeah, they make a lot of bad
decisions and YouTube online. People to use the actually gets
them paid. But I mean, I can't say that to,

(01:00:22):
you know, a couple of people making a million on switches
like, yeah, I'm still doing good.
But yeah coming but there's no wall.
Who's never, did he tell people that?
I mean, it's, although we are stupid.
Yeah, we are. The stadium jumping in and

(01:00:54):
playing right away especially since you are twitch stream
stops. Yeah.
But if they would add that, that's just another thing that

(01:01:15):
they can put another feather in the cap of something and you to
does that, no one else can do you think Yep.
What is it Amazon announced? Which right?
Yes, yes. Oh, let me have that Elder.
A lot of money? Well, they have.
What is it Luna? Which is their version.
Exactly. What is that?
They have their version of stadia.

(01:01:35):
What is Luna, what's that? And it's not purple at the
purple thing. They've been testing it for
forever. Hmm, it's still it's running
now. It's so yeah.
Nobody talks yeah. But it is still running.
Yes true. It still exists.
Its soul. Exist.
But why can't they take this idea?
Like they got money. The fact that Google didn't do

(01:01:56):
it when they had stayed in the first time.
Makes it seem like it was a moreof a pipe dream.
Yeah. That's something that they
actually can get working. It may be that they're not
running that whole service. Maybe now they have the
bandwidth to do that. I would love to be in the
freaking boardroom. That's the brainstorming that
and then like we don't have the technology ready yet.
No, it's not going to be ready for another couple of years.

(01:02:18):
Fuck it. We're coming out.
We're gonna let him know. We got it.
It's a good. You can make the deadline?
No! Not at all.
All right. Fuck.
It will be so, so I still have it.

(01:02:48):
I said how's the d-pad? That's the best thing that came
out of stadia unfortunate. But yeah like I said if they can
take any of this and put it towards you to make YouTube a
better thing, I'm cool. Well, I use it a lot, I don't
know, I don't know, but if it's that easy, but it's pretty cool.
I think if you guys can jump on and play games with us, yeah,
I'll be pretty dope without download anything.

(01:03:10):
You don't have the game or anything.
We just like you jump on. I think streaming for you.
It would make strumming interesting man.
And yeah it also with indie gamesoup.
Yeah. If all guys, but you only 30
people in here, right? Something you have to download.
You play on your phone, whateveryou got to do every dope.
Playing with the audience man. Yeah real time.
That's what that's what it's forthat's open.
There are. I mean it's fun till the
audience beats the crap out of you like dude I had to wait at

(01:03:36):
least a half an hour 45 for not filing for Street Fighter.
Six download pre the shaders andwhen I first played it weight as
PC, right? Yeah.
That's why I had to download fans before.
The person I played on my portable.
Yeah. And I was like dude, this is
like a half an hour sucks. It was just sitting there
loading like damn but afterwards, it's fine but it has

(01:03:57):
to load that to begin with atomic.
Art was like that for me, that'swhat I was.
I was like, oh, I haven't playedthis in a while.
Let me just put it that way it up, and it was like downloading
shaders. And I was like, how long do I
have left? 45 minutes?
What the fuck is that? So you can download 75, gigs of
shade. What the hell?
- somehow just let me play, right?

(01:04:18):
Okay, that could be happening a battle on.
In the background, it down the background.
By the time that's done, I can get off streaming it that way
and played normal, but I have itsaid, oh, I have it set to
download in the background. It doesn't, but it wouldn't
allow you to allow you to download the game the past to
get like 25 percent or whatever before you can even play it.
Well, it's a feature. It's a futuristic service.
And it needs to happen to make downloading.

(01:04:39):
Yeah, the norm if they're going all digital, this has to be
something that's possible. The infrastructure.
The infrastructure needs to be there.
First before, all this, hmm. Futuristic Tech can, you know,
we're not there yet exist, I think, and now, we're not there
2030. What after that?
The last do it at the. Let us do it before with their.
So if they do allow it, we're pretty much there.

(01:04:59):
Yeah. I mean it's not going to be a
walk in the park once they do get it.
You know, there's going to be it'll get better over time.
I'll say. Yeah, in fact that you could do
is get. Yeah.
Give us the ability to. Yeah.
Someone is not going to cause them crazy.
Somebody's got to start it though.
It's still running YouTube. It's not going to cost them
crazy to add this hopefully true.
So this is somebody out there. Any developers out there, find
out how much it's going to cost and get his Kickstarter.

(01:05:23):
Get a Kickstarter going man. Yeah, I'll support that.
Yeah. So let us know if this is going
to be something. You guys are looking forward to?
Or is it something you just say?Yeah.
I don't care about it at all YouTube games.
Now I didn't ask you and if it works as you download your game

(01:05:45):
for 3 hours, you don't care. You.
Okay. For you to games.

(01:06:32):
First of all, it's too soon. Thinking right now it's game on
2020. It's too soon.

(01:06:55):
All right. Now in ago right now that would
shock it feels too soon we haven't tapped into some
serious. I know when that is we have our
time talking to an Xbox rep. All right.
It's too soon. It is whatever.
We know consoles by 2020. Yeah.
Not gonna be consoles anymore. By the way, not the way we see
him right now. Yeah, because their PCS right

(01:07:16):
now, everything's gonna be in except for Nintendo.
That's gonna be a goddamn subscription and The world just
going to be like all right. Cool.
Now we don't own games anymore, Michael self of all people.
Yeah. And they still PCS constantly.
They want you to own a PC to play, all the games.
Of course, they've just selling you an Xbox PC to play all your
games, they're gonna bring back mixer, let me stop there.

(01:07:38):
And then have the downloadable game so you could doubt himself.
That's where it'll be. You could join any.
I think about eight years is what it always was any way it
used to be five years. That was that was passed back in
the 16-bit eight. Used to be five years and we've
like your move it on because we were kids at times that time
felt like forever. Well it was cheaper to make back

(01:07:58):
then it was you didn't need of the the, you know, the AAA
budget. Well, technically be just as
fast then it will mean but they weren't making the Leaps and
Bounds that they're making now right?
No. No, it's bad.
It's yeah. It is larger.
I mean, not now not like this, is that moment?
It's not. But did you see that hair?
Take them all that shit was crazy for for Unity.
No, don't care. The guy who It was, it was, it

(01:08:30):
was the epic epic games. What is it?
What is there? An unreal unreal?
It is not bad. They used in it and they had a
pulled up this chick's hair and it was standing up like they had
gel in it like some about Mary that wasn't gel.

(01:08:52):
But that it held up ahead and Export individual strands and
everything and it was ridiculous.
That's the one thing they got tochange in graphics to make it
look more real. Well, I saw that's because it
wasn't the same conference but it was it was about the Unreal
Engine 5, but it was the animation, whatever that they
like the live animation. But I had that yet, so they have
the voice actor in real time andit was done like that talking

(01:09:12):
reading the lines and acting it out and they had the freaking
motion, cannot even motion cap. It was just literally a camera,
endured the render was done. It was rendered in real time.
And you see the game, and you see the character in the guy
playing the in the characters talk like it was literally done
in real time. They didn't have them edit, they
didn't have no editing or processing nothing.
It was done. So they were like, this is going
to this is going to revolutionize game development

(01:09:35):
because you don't need you just you don't even need to have the
markers and stuff and the face not anymore.
Green suit? No, no, according to camera,
that's it. What I wanted to put, I want to
put stock in. I was like, this is too much
money. That is like, that's a lot,
dude. It might be worth it though.
After the fact, if I did before that yeah it is crazy.
But that money was yeah, but that that is crazy Tech and it

(01:09:59):
is moving fast, but I mean, I would say 7 to 8 years would be
what it used to be or what it was going as.
And that's why everyone's like switch needs to come on.
Everyone's begging switch to geta new system, right?
Two years ago. But I mean, that was a little
fast because they kept talking about it, but I mean bout now.
Now, we're not ready. Now, the tech is a little Slope

(01:10:21):
of the games that come out for. Unfortunately, they want to make
better. I mean Zelda was like the final
straw, I mean Pokemon was but ifye but as far as moving on with
the tech and a system should move on past that is after 10
years of the, if the tech is older than 10 years and they're
still making games for it, I think they can get some type of

(01:10:42):
reboot like get another one pastor something else to factor in
AI is going to also revolutionize game development
as well. And I think it's gonna hopefully
be passed what it's going. Yeah, beat it up a lot faster.
So what we think in traditional sense, how long it takes for a
game to come out, it might change.
Well, my gonna stay in that, it takes too long and everybody,
they're trying to get people used to it, but they, but if I,

(01:11:03):
for me, I game, right? I mean, look at, look at
Grantham, I mean, listen great. They've got totally big really
own it got too big for his own good.
Yeah, literally three generations in.
Yeah, we haven't gotten a sequelto that, that's great.
That's pretty, yeah. But that's a long time.
You know what's crazy though? If making games come out
quicker, we don't need that. The nice too many games left
until we don't even have time toplay the AAA games around now.

(01:11:25):
Yeah, there's no grandpa. There's no Grand Theft out.
Now, if it was out now who here has time to play it, the thing
is, this is Gail the snail of the game has to not be as Grant
like they shouldn't have to makeit he 100 hours.
Yeah, to do something crazy likehave to make like a sky or
doesn't have to be that big of the game.
But if the scale is not that great and it's just something we

(01:11:46):
call Theft Auto. I feel like they should make the
game. They should make the main game
20 to 25 hours, max, that's fine.
And then to complete the entire them people be doing, episodic
Adventures forever and we will do not want episodic.
I mean, the complete puzzle to 100% the game.
It'll take like 50 60, maybe 70 hours so games do take a while.

(01:12:08):
I mean I think it happened. I mean it could be in touch with
myself but I think that when it will Metal Gear came out, that's
when people start questioning the size of games and like, does
it, is it worth my money if it'snot this time?
I have time. I think it was around that time
I did after that, always has to be 10 hours.
I'm not paying 60 bucks. Yeah, something some people

(01:12:28):
justify like that. Yeah.
That's the old. And that's 10 hours like that.
It's nothing. Yeah.
And it's like, okay, is it over a thousand hours?
Some people played, like, I've seen people's lists of hours of
game. Yeah, dude, over 1000 over 1,000
hours and I go watch some stuff.I'm original.
Hell played the original hell-blade was six hours and
people were complaining about that.
Yeah, but roughly reflected in the price.

(01:12:51):
I think at the time it was like 40 bucks for the game 34 you Som
like something like that, and it's crystals like yelling, it
wasn't a budget title, right? Like people for thousands of
hours into these games and it's like I just don't have the time
like y'all know how much I love dragon ball Fighters, I've only
played against been out since 2018.
I think I've only played it for like 400 hours maybe.
Hmm, that's a long time. It is now it's lower.

(01:13:12):
Now, if you were 16 years old, obviously it's through the roof.
Because hundred, what the fuck are you doing?
When you're 16? You're not doing anything.
That's what I'm in your hands. Well, like that's the that's the
thing about games. Now this is like older Gamers
like us like it you don't we can't play everything.
We can we never will be able to play it unless we're getting
paid to get unless he's doing this full time.
Yeah. When we were younger games used

(01:13:33):
to be maybe a half an hour. Yeah, that's the only got that
one game per year. Maybe for your birthday, maybe
for Christmas, you get a game. So, two games a year that
30-minute game would last you for five years, like, literally
five years, Ninja Gaiden, for Nintendo.
I still played to this day. That game is literally like
maybe 35 minutes Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers.

(01:13:55):
I see somebody that there's a sponsor has been tested again.
Maybe in the 11:49 minutes. Yeah.
And he beat, I was like two stages behind, dude.
He beat the game around like damn man.
I thought I was faster this game.
Yeah, I'm not that close. I got hit the game is over,
dude. I'm like Zelda and Metroid which

(01:14:15):
we thought was the longest gamesever.
Yeah. And you know, they for that
time, they were pretty long though.
Games are very lengthy and that's fine but like we didn't
question it. But right today's version of
Zelda or metroid they take way. Is this a big scale?
It's such a big deal. If games then come out as much
it wouldn't be a big deal. All I got here is the kingdom

(01:14:35):
for the year, I can fuck with that for the entire year and be
good and maybe play a fighter onthe side and they'll be more.
But no, I got five or six open world games, that I can't touch,
that's crazy. And there's hundreds of games,
dropping a week, not even, not even triple.
Is what all these great independent games a drop in.
And I didn't even really in the end.

(01:14:56):
He didn't even mention it and he's like, we don't need, I
don't hate things to be out quicker.
Or I think 2028 though is a goodtime for me because everyone was
saying, no PlayStation 5 pros coming out this year.
And like dude why why do we needa pro version of these right
now? Yeah, I don't think that's what
I think I can understand a slim slim cheaper and smaller and

(01:15:18):
that's fine. I mean anyway Something like
that. Okay.
Do I need that? I don't need it but it's cool
that they made a smaller and cheaper version of but they
don't go. This is it.
They raised the prices first of all, since the release, right?
And it coming out pro version, that I can be more expensive
than the original. Of course, that's crazy.
I don't know if they are, I don't know what they are.
I hope they're not, I don't evenknow how they're selling the

(01:15:39):
freaking the VR to whatever it dropped against daesh.
Oh no, you didn't drop the priceon that.
I'm saying like how is it selling the face, The Meta,
right? They drop that back down.
It went up a hundred in each other.
It's ridiculous. How else is a turbo supposed to
play five role-playing games at 1:00?
Well, you'll probably beat thosegames by 2028.

(01:16:01):
Yeah, probably problem. But the thing is, I beat them
all at the same time. Like when I beat one, I'm going
to be another one like in next week, because I'm playing them
all at the same time. So it's like, you know, I don't
know how you do it as but doesn't sound fun to cause
like--'cause from. It's a lot of fun.
I want to hear you explain the storyline.
Yeah, everybody's confused the stories that I was betrayed how

(01:16:23):
long I played, one piece Odysseyfor it.
I'm like how do you how do you play another RPG?
Alongside that and another and another.
Yeah I don't I don't know how you do it.
I can only play five games at once stuff that if I'm those
other if I'm playing other games, like that's why I haven't

(01:16:50):
played much. If I start buying fancy 16, I'm
like, damn, I can't play this. But if I play this, then I can't
play these. You candies that I had on
beating. You can play them all, and I'm
gonna play them all. Just play a little bit here, a
little bit there, little bit here, a little bit there.
I've been organizing my don't really Master the gameplay
mechanics, depending on the game.
If you're spreading your focus like that.

(01:17:10):
And that's just and also selected to piggyback off of
that Pockets. Also you don't get the full
experience from the game for me like that's why I stopped
Horizon cause I'm like I need tobecause when I played, I was
immersed in the game. I like what was going on, but I
was like this game was a dollar fifty when we mess with this and
I played it for a little bit. I said I like this game too and
I was like wait, how long is this nine hours?
I'ma knock this out. And then I'm gonna go back to
the Horizon because Horizon deserves my full attention.

(01:17:33):
It's a work of art. It's a beautiful story and I
can't just keep jumping around cuz I'm not going to.
I'm just going to rush eventually.
I'm not. I don't want to rush through
games. I'm enjoying, you know, it's
hard and I feel like when you stop playing you lose the, the
momentum also yes. And it's like right, like give
you an example. God of War Ragnarok.
I stopped playing that. I played it like to play

(01:17:55):
throughs. Super busy, didn't really have
that much time and then I'm thinking about it now I'm having
anxiety thinking about going back to it.
Like I could not even know what the hell that's kind of freaking
like and that's one game I couldn't put down because I do
when you, when you master the fighting and that game.
Yeah, I might have to even startover so much fun.
It's muscle memory, man. I'm like the slit the muscle

(01:18:17):
memory. When you're playing one game,
you play five at one time, right?
It's like 5:00 in the same rotation, but when you're in a
game you just in that game in that moment you give that game
all your attention. You need to do a series or you
explain the people like yeah. Your message.
Yeah. Because that that's foreign to
me, man. In streaming.

(01:18:52):
Don't let them out with a streaming console, it's like 20
bucks or for free to send it to your mailbox.
As a trojan horse. Is that Google did it.
They said, I'll stay here. Everybody.
It didn't work out, but I got that for free.
It's like if you remember Prime,he go.
He got it on YouTube. I'm like okay.
Cool. Xbox series, see ya?

(01:19:14):
Yeah. But like I said, I don't think I
don't know if they even come outanother console in the way we
think of consoles right now, whoknows, but by that, Time by
2028. Who knows, if it's not going to
just be a TV. It'll be a Xbox surface.
I think so. I think Sony an Xbox or so.
We'll do some different. I think Nintendo still have
consult. Yeah, at least that'll clear out
some space. Yeah, I'm gonna be wearing this

(01:19:36):
console in my eye. No, I'm not turning you wake up.
Zach is getting small and small.Do the handles it.
Smaller and smaller, I'm tellingyou, man, it's the pill.

(01:19:57):
You have a power, Global variable stevebecks is huge.
You have a power glove for real,I'll be like, yeah, this is but
all right. Let us know if you think
Microsoft acting and come out with a console, tell you honey,
28, nope, Elliot so we're back y'all and we get into the main
topic. Yeah yeah, yeah.
And it's what Studios should Xbox acquire the little diamond.

(01:20:21):
Polly. I love this news actually.
Well, the news came about because obviously Sony and
Microsoft is still in court and it's getting a little crazy.
Sorry. Down Sony, my little crazy and I
was an accident. I thought you were going to say
if you guys follow the original post for the for this podcast,

(01:20:44):
that's why I thought you were going to sit and I was like oh
okay I see but I mean this isn'tit came up that Microsoft had in
talks plans to buy other. Other businesses like Sega.
Yes and this is some like okay that's common sense.
If you were following the gamingnews at all, say okay, if

(01:21:08):
Microsoft has to buy a company saying it would probably be
there. It was probably one of the
things that they would choose because of how the company is
doing, how much money Microsoft has.
And Is it possible? Like some companies are around
and it's just not possible to buy them.
Yeah. And we'll go over them right
now. But I mean, I'm still wondering

(01:21:32):
what? I just go over a quick thing
that they said in that Sony saidto Microsoft in their little
little courtroom Shenanigans going on.
So he said, if if Activision if they buy, if Microsoft buys,
Activision Blizzard, if they go through with that, That then

(01:21:54):
Microsoft will not get Sony's plans like they're they're
they're PS PS 6 console to work on it.
It it don't care for it. They said they will not give
that to them because that's giving away secrets to the, you
know, to Microsoft. What am I gonna like?
Yeah. But true though, wasn't it the
same company to said, okay, we get a down.
Pour it like a bad Port of Call of Duty.

(01:22:17):
That's one of the reasons why wedon't want this to go down.
So I was like if you're not giving them a day, Kid, and I'm
making it. So, I mean, I don't know if it's
going to come out like, right when the system's come out
where, whatever, but if they don't have a dev kit and you
want them to make it on the samelevel as Microsoft system, or
whatever, they're going to use, how is that going to be
possible? How are you not going to get a
dump down? Watered-down version of it, if

(01:22:38):
you don't give them the time to work on your system with like,
how is that true? They're not gonna get up for
period. That's right.
Yeah, they're not gonna if they don't do that.
So it's kind of a catch-22 like how is that?
That possible you can't use thatin your defense and then have
that as your defense also. That's true.
Look, we're not going to give you something to help us out but

(01:23:00):
you better do it the right way. So what has happened, what they
did on cloud-based? They don't need a system so you
guys better open it up and put it on PlayStation, Plus the
stream. Only because Nintendo's probably
gonna be a cloud version. Yeah.
Yeah. But yes, they said Sony was they
had emails. That said that Sony was And I

(01:23:22):
mean, Michaels is trying to by Sega and yeah, he go if you
didn't know if you don't follow your video game history.
Way back in the Dreamcast days Dreamcast is running on Windows
CE, which is Microsoft that was their chipset.

(01:23:42):
So way back then, like yourself had ties to Sagan and even when
the Dreamcast was cancelled was done and they were making
anything else for it. Like so comes out with the Xbox
and the Xbox is pretty much known as if you follow what was
coming out for it as the Dreamcast to because all of

(01:24:02):
sega's titles were moved over tothe Xbox, the original, the OG
and they had had Panzer Dragoon orta, they had should move, I
can't believe I still haven't played order.
Yeah she said Radio Future and Jet Set Radio Future and yep
they had Sonic Adventure. The first one go.

(01:24:47):
I mean we can start. I mean I've just given the
history on why. It's not so much of a surprise
if Microsoft was the by Sega. It's not as yeah, I don't want a
surprise now. Yeah.
This was a room of way back. Yeah, not.
But it's Sega Sammy now which kind of throws a wrench into it
because obviously who was just saying it would have been
Microsoft, right? Sammy was like, yeah, this is
the only reason that they makingmoney, not money right now, but

(01:25:09):
what do you think? I mean, I let you talk about
what you want. No.
I was going to say that at first.
When I first thought about it, Iwas like oh, that's cool, man.
Somebody by Sega and hmm. And I'll bring out their awesome
IPS bring them out, however, like the, then I started
thinking about it more and then I remembered Microsoft bought

(01:25:32):
rare back in the day and they had, they did nothing with the
freaking IP, they did nothing. Got no, Kobe Bryant one gay bro.
Stop it. They brought one game on the 360
and it was a, it was atrocious, it was bad.
The Banjo Kazooie nuts, and bolts and I played it to make a
meal. Also good question.

(01:25:52):
I don't remember. I don't remember what company
made. I don't know either, but rare,
they use mostly for their familyoriented games.
Yes. And the Kinect games and, you
know, people are people say is misuse.
It definitely wasn't the same rare that was making stuff for

(01:26:13):
64. Definitely wasn't because most
of those developers went on to make other games that weren't
rare properties. They working in their own
companies. So they bought the name and the
name alone, which is if, if Microsoft bought Sega right now,
they'd be buying the name alone.Exactly.
Most of those guys aren't makingthe games which is scary that
were talking about. I wouldn't trust them.

(01:26:35):
That's scary. Like, I really wouldn't trust
them to be honest. Like yeah, when we were talking
about like what? Like podcast ago we're like oh
yeah some of these of them. Yeah Microsoft needs it Bob on?
I'm like wait this out first. First of all you're like,
positives - that's a good. Yeah.
But then you start thinking about it more like like they
have a history. Okay, but like the Sega that we
want, right? I don't know.

(01:26:58):
Yeah, well, here's the thing, what they did when they bought
all these other companies like when you bought that stuff, they
say we let those companies work on whatever they want to do, and
we leave them alone. Uh-huh.
So it's got nothing to do what they want with.

(01:27:25):
Goes off money, if that's the problem.
They just need the capital to dowhat they want to do.
Then that's, that's a positive. But do we trust seg on their
own? That's the thing.
Yeah, let's say go do what they're doing.
Now, letting other people made agame yet ND companies and stuff,
father thing while getting Microsoft money to support that

(01:27:47):
that's incredible. That's going to be what we would
want, if that's what we want. Otherwise there are other than a
Sonic game that would benefit Microsoft if they were doing it
the wrong, they would bring out all their say guy piece to Game
Pass. Pretty much.
That's what I do. That's that's what I want to buy
these companies. That's what I would think is
gonna. That's you get Altered Beast on.
Yes, Sega and nothing. Nothing remastered, either just

(01:28:13):
straight-up Portsmouth. That's what that's what I used
to say ages. Yeah.
At the very least. They bring out all their IPs on
Game Pass and then like we get some C equals the huh listen
I'll tell you what dude? Shame.
You would probably get fancy style online.

(01:28:34):
Yeah, paper like the live version of it right?
Like the live game service on Game Pass?
Yeah, yeah. That's what you probably won't
get the magic. Oh, the magic is not gonna
happen that that's, that's what I that's what I'm afraid of.
I was that he may be crazy Dragon back as they did have
that dragon game. Was it something scale?
Something they'll bounce a scalebalanced little bit?

(01:28:55):
Have that in their mind that they wanted to do and look what
we got? Oh, nothing.
Nothing. Yeah, you make, if they can make
any of those a reality, you know, if you want to remind me
of I would I would expect. It's like when Razor Ramon and
Diesel left WWE. Right?
And I know and then they had thefake versions of them come out,

(01:29:17):
right? That's what it would.
It would it would be like sayingit's just something it's not
only. Yeah just that's what I would
expect just the name and that's it.
It's not coffee and that's that all that makes me want to throw
up what I mean. But you don't know for sure.
Just thinking. Yes I mean but based off
history, we only go by what they've done turbo.
You look like you're in deep thought.
No, it's like this the thing about this Saiga thing, it's

(01:29:39):
like, um, it's not a bad thing if they own it.
But it's like I like the blizzard thing and Activision
thing because it's gonna improvetheir position in the market.
And I think that's why, that's the first motivation for doing
these mergers is that they want to improve their third, but
they're a distant third, they want more market, share, you
know, and giving them Diablo. Oh, and can call of duty' going

(01:30:03):
to do that and I would love to see and those are great games,
that would be great to see on a day, one game past, what does it
have to do with Sega? I'm getting back.
Is like, the cool thing about the Sega is that, okay?
And what Microsoft does, if you look at Game Pass particular,
you see a game like Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Generations,

(01:30:24):
their 60 frames, okay? You can't play those games on
PlayStation 5 and plan. Proves you know, Microsoft cares
about improving past generationsof games for third-party.
So that's a positive of what I'dlike to see of why, you know,
like them moaning Sega and seeing their whole catalog on a

(01:30:45):
game past would be cool. I just don't know if improve
their position in the market, will be cool to see but equally
also if Nintendo own Sega, it would be pretty cool as well,
you know? It's not so I would trust them
more. Yeah, okay.
Nintendo. They don't care about any of
that other shit. They're already doing very well

(01:31:06):
doing their own thing having inferior Hardware.
Yeah so like like they they would, you know, they used to
battle say go all the time and you know set Sonic's men in this
shit low, their game specially Smash Brothers.
So they like Sonic so that's all.
Well yeah. And and you know if anyone that
would do any justice to some of their titles like you know
intended Nintendo finds value instrategy role players, as you

(01:31:28):
see with valkyria Chronicles, triangle, strategy and Fire.
Emblem. That's the only time you'll see
a Shining Force. I think the tender with see that
as important but I don't see Microsoft doing something like.
Yeah. And all I see is Sonic and Mario
in the Olympics every four years, which is not a bit, they
aren't bad, I can guarantee Nintendo would do that.
Yeah, yeah, that's yeah, that's yeah.

(01:31:49):
But look at the other. So the game, The Genesis games
are on there. They just had goals of ghost
revenge of Shinobi, there's a lot of gray.
If you like Sega Genesis like, oh, they have that everything I
like I should pack has you like your favorite games on there?
Which is crazy. So it's like Nintendo knows and
understands cycle of, I'm not saying Microsoft wouldn't.

(01:32:10):
I don't think it would even comedown to them?
I think it's Sega, that we'd have a problem with, hmm.
Regardless of what these companies going to do for Sega,
what's a going to do for Sega like they just going to bring
out all that. Well titles again and how
they're going to manage how exactly they're doing that
correct. Yes.
But they are, they really doing that right now?
We don't know. We don't know.
But they have they have done it.Who's doing Superstars?

(01:32:30):
By the way? They said the created oh I don't
know who's there's people from the original team doing it but
like who's the it's not Sonic team, is it?
No no it seems like thing. I don't know who's doing that
because the other people who maysign of mania making the other
3D game night. So I don't know, any Microsoft
may be neat, maybe his microphone.

(01:33:01):
It comes down to what they'd be able to do.
What's a will be able to accomplish regardless of how
much money they have. Sorry because of all the money
in the world but our zest and Sonic Team side seam is work,
they might have been so maybe it's because of those two guys
were on Sonic Team. Maybe that's maybe.
Okay, hmm, who's our zest? No, no I have no idea.
That's what's a good does many fine people who work on stuff

(01:33:23):
that you don't know. Well, it's just looking at it.
Like, the funny thing is about watching that trailer like I got
legit old-school. Excited watching that.
And I'm like, someone knows anymore aspect.
Yeah, I'm like they they they know and it's not Green Hill
Zone. Again.
It's not only that the same shitagain, but it's the same feel

(01:33:44):
and they did that. They were able to grasp that.
It's like, that's what that's what you need.
That's the magic. Someone got the magic, right
people who were behind that magic along done.
Yeah, making these games or they're making this one or two
scattered around doing differentjobs and sure they get like a
lower in version of what it Is Imean, who can give me my Golden
Axe? No idea.

(01:34:05):
This is my cul-de-sac. I haven't been a good girl.
It's what would be ridiculous.

(01:34:26):
Yeah, it would the fire and multiplayer had no business.
This being as good as it was back then because it was ugly.
Yeah, it was super ugly. It was great.
But like, ideas have to be there.
Yeah. And the people who make these
magical ideas, aren't in the company.
So who is Sega? Then why was why would you buy
Sega? If those people aren't Sega,
let's say could be the fans thenunless you just want to take the

(01:34:52):
money and give them the opportunity to make it happen.
I think question is how they running it because you can get
somebody. The rent sign of was like,
someone who's passionate you look online.
Be like, who's passionate about sign employees?
Who knows how not to mess this up.
Give them a test run, give him the money, let them do it.
Give him a team. Puts egg on it, right.

(01:35:13):
Call it a day. I don't think Microsoft will
handle it like that, though. It's a good thing of this red
fall. They left their, let the devs do
there there. Should they stood out the way?
They're like, all right. You guys do your thing and look
what happened. Crush.
They didn't start, they didn't start what I'm saying.

(01:35:34):
What it's all messed up, but they stayed out of it.
They stayed on. I was on saying like that.
That should tell you that. Yeah, I don't think they're
gonna but that doesn't mean it was Microsoft fault.
If they stayed out, I mean, theycould have found it.
If they ultimately, they came inMidway.
I mean that's just a lot that can go, but I don't know if they

(01:35:55):
said change this to multiplayer.Change this to this game but do
that, that they didn't really make games like that.
I guess I'll just Throw money, the right.
People are Caden, make games that's like Hi-Fi Rush was an
excellent game. That wasn't true.
It was excellent. That team should make a jet
grind radio. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(01:36:15):
If they were to do something like that, they put other teams
yes in there to help them out that but that is a ultimately
it's up to him, Microsoft to do that.
That's what I'm saying Rica. Well it's very good if you let
them make the game to have to have the drive to make the game.
Well that Microsoft is not good.Give them the drive, then the
money, but they're the owners sothey can give a dumb guy.
Like, listen, if I want to make a game I don't know how to make

(01:36:37):
a game. You can give me 10 million
dollars if yeah, I made this game still compete rash.
How to make the game? So I have to have the power in
the drive to make a like the passion.
You can't buy find me, the people I need to make the
vision. Yeah, cuz I can't do it.
Yeah, you know like oh you worked on blah blah blah, I need

(01:36:57):
you to do this. You worked on this now.
I need you to do it. So now I know the Blueprints are
there now, let's get everyone that you guys need.
And let's make what we're supposed to.
As I can't do about, my Camelot,tell him to make Shining Force.
Just finally, one guy that's still around me one fucking guy
guys said, oh my gosh, I had a great idea and there was

(01:37:19):
somebody like two or three yearsago, they're trying to reach.
Someone want to do for someone from that team wants to do for.
It's like no fuck for you guys are forgetting about three which
is Polish. This polish three.
Make it happen. The way it's supposed to.
Say that didn't make that money and then people are going to
crave a for if you fix three. But it was incredible Hammond.
I don't know. I have my faith in what if they

(01:37:41):
did acquire the name of zone of what I'm saying, I'm sorry, what
would be another company that you would you might be able to
see Microsoft, buying? Eric, because obviously this,
this deal might not even go through it.
Of course, I think it, well, I think it might not, I don't
know, but I'm saying no gonna have a lot more money to use on
other companies that brass does not fall through.
And Have to look for that they need games.

(01:38:03):
They will think, stallion said it before tendo.
Would be the negative by Nintendo.
No, no. I mean, I told you mean by
Microsoft If they really wanted a freaking

(01:38:39):
rock star. That would be wouldn't I'm
saying but then they passed the past.

(01:39:02):
Yeah. Yes.
Beyond their only recently that he doesn't want anything to be
exclusive so it's not doesn't. Little Spencer.
What was he just talking about saying?
I think it was talking about if they acquired Sega.
Yeah, I'm sorry yet if he's quiet one.
Yeah. Yeah.
He didn't want to be for everything that was just saying
though, right? Yeah.

(01:39:22):
Yeah, this is the plan for anything.
They get. They just want it to be
available on their service. Yeah.
Then they'll take whatever moneyelse they get anywhere in the
kickback from all the other platforms.
If Microsoft phones, Sega, I'm sure they're going to have Sonic
on Nintendo systems, like, they're gonna want to pick
something to be exclusive. Yeah.
But they are like I'm telling you, like they knew would be

(01:39:44):
also, you know, it's like this certain
certain franchise that just feelbetter on the Xbox.
I think, you know, they do want to add anything else, they need
something. So, Grand Theft would be rock.

(01:40:06):
Star is now considered a rock star is now considered Grand
Theft Auto. Mother's be like Grant if Grand
Theft Auto is for sale. I guess I can buy it.
Not even for the amount that they offered for Activision,
Blizzard wouldn't be, they wouldhave to at least double that to
get Grand Theft Auto like this is the money or is everything
alright that bread that is stillthere?

(01:40:26):
But they used to be a company that made what they make bully
made table tennis game a lot. They made a lot of games back in
the day and now they're just those two games.
Let me know they're so big. They can't do anything.
A billion dollars and the onlineinfrastructure, you know, with
is money, when freaking Microsoft's expertise.
It's a, it would be a good fit, rock star.

(01:40:47):
Thank you. Why don't just make the grant
that machine, though, gonna steal your money on a grand
scale, I think it would be, I think would be smart because for
them to acquire them because it would be comparable to Sony
owning Insomniac. It's like, they have that's a
Spider-Man 2 but she was there like, that was like a mic, drop

(01:41:08):
moment. Yeah.
And that's the only reason. Why give Sony's presentation B+
instead of a be for Microsoft's was because of that well it's
certainly nobody wants Xbox to have exclusive only so up in
arms against anything exclusive to Xbox.
Yeah dude. But like some reason it's like

(01:41:28):
Sony's like nah man really only looking at me I think overall
the industry sees it as more as a fight of do we want retail
games or do we want? Cloud games, we want digital
games. I think it's more in the sense
of this in the future and certain companies are like,
yeah, we don't want that to happen.
We don't want to give them the power of All Digital everything,

(01:41:51):
all right? For one reason or another, I
think that's the biggest argument worldwide over what
this is. That's why they're saying if you
give them the power of a cloud this is going to such and such
for us. It's like who does the fuck?
All right now yeah right now. Yeah but overall when it's only
digitalwrite riding out to ask for stuff that's not even
Forever. I can't even keep it.
That's why monopolies aren't good, man.

(01:42:13):
That's probably what they reallyinviting because we control.
Once you have everything in the market, you control the control
of the price. But once you look at it that
way, it's different. I don't get screwed, it's a
different Outlook. I mean, look, because I know you
love all the, all the, all the basic, all the online stores,
right? Depending of the no matter where
it is, you know, if you're on the eShop for Nintendo and the

(01:42:34):
PlayStation store you're lookingthrough Xbox, or I don't know
why you would, but you'd be through the Xbox store game of
pass. Forget ya know, but they can
charge whatever they want and you're going to because you have
that platform, you're going to pay whatever it is because then
people won't. Oh man, they were stopped paying
exactly. The still pay exact 70, 80 90,

(01:42:54):
whatever they want for these games, people got by enough,
people are going to buy it to make your decision enough look.
Came past is going to go up in price.
They're divisible it's going to keep going every time they
acquire these companies the and this is before they got the
deal, right? So I have the power to do that

(01:43:18):
everything. Now you're forcing people to
feel like gosh, everything they will have, I'm saying.
Yeah, I know, that's what you don't want.
Yeah, but they act like Call of Duty is like everything, right
as on every, that's not everything, not accept big deal,
but it's a billion dollars. Billions of dollars.
It's a big deal. Yeah.
But What the fuck? Konami, someone, someone at this

(01:43:42):
point, anyone, please, I think it's the same.
I think I'm gonna turn around though.
They are making the announced that the metal gear stuff.
They got the new remake coming out, they got, they got the
Silent Hill games. They are making new games again,
which is by far, what they weren't doing the long oval.
Now they just have to announce maybe a Castlevania some such as
myself. Fascists, give me give me a

(01:44:03):
castle, real, a real Contra, I mean, I'm, like I said, they got
to rethink these. Yeah, Contra needs rethinking.
Because I don't know how to do it besides the regular 2D.
Yeah. And this is Contra 19, I would
not eat some of these games are dated, is dated know how it

(01:44:23):
works because you have your cup head, which is Contra.
Yeah, cuphead is Contra with different mechanics.
Contra needs an update and I don't know how to update it yet.
That's why it goes. It goes a collection.
See if people care is a collection.
See people? Still care and all right.
Maybe we'll try to figure out how to make a A new one that's
actually good. People didn't like the 3D
because that was fucked Resh. Well that was not even that was

(01:44:44):
that wasn't even each. I can't even say Konami made
that they tried something else. Way back a lot of people didn't
like you didn't like the overhead but I actually enjoy
the overhead one but um that that but that's our Warriors.
What pretty much? But like that's that one has to
be reshuffled right? Castlevania, are you going to
still you go try to 3D route. Are you gonna do a remaster or
remake of something in the night?

(01:45:05):
Like these are, I think they should try both.
On every game. Yeah a 2d version a version like
Mario. Does Yandy Mario 2D Mario's work
it out or wine fan bases where and yeah I had a great idea with
that the the phone game that was2 player co-op and you got rid
of it. Why was that a phone game?

(01:45:25):
Apparently didn't work at all. So the idea was great, it was
good, but but, but they still are trying to throw their
characters into shit. Like dead cells and all right,
we know your characters right? They have a give us out.
They have the titles. And a lineage.

(01:45:47):
But they would seem like a company would be for sale if you
gave them enough money because it doesn't look like they had
the heart until recently. They didn't look like they had
the heart to make anything at all.
Plus they don't have they don't have kijima they can't make any
new metal gears. Like unless you got somebody
who's like yeah I'm the next guy.
Let me get it. Let you know because this other
people who can direct and do movies and stuff.

(01:46:08):
I mean, they can't make which isbasically a metal gears a movie.
You can get someone else, who has the passion that could Gina
had without being too crazy. Like it's you, maybe that's what
sold the game. But, all right, you can find
someone who has that passion? Who grew up with this and can do
it? Yeah, he's got a higher them but
I mean, I don't see them lookingfor that guy unfortunate.
Oh, just remake Metal Gear on NES?

(01:46:30):
Yeah, I'll get someone. Get someone to direct that.
Try it. But you're gonna need money.
It's one of those things, man. It's like even if they do
acquirement, who's gonna, I don't know.
Who do you trust? Yeah, exactly.
Like it's not enough. It's not enough to just own the
company. It's like whatever they have to
have a plan that was money. They just got to put it out
there. They just need up.
They need a plan. Hire the right people.

(01:46:51):
It's like a right. If you're going to buy, if
you're going to buy anything, you do your research, you mean
like, you got to have a plan? Yeah, otherwise, it just wasting
one but they do have the cartoonfor Castlevania.
You have the movie coming out from Metals.
You can make him out, you can make a cartoon version of it
that like like that, you could take that.
Yes, characters in the same way,it's true.
So don't know it's not rocket science, it's not rocket science

(01:47:14):
LED yeah, I don't know what other company would be a good
fit for Microsoft to acquire. I kind of want them to by
Capcom. You want, how come is doing
crazy? Yeah, they're doing amazing.
I know they're going to be specially happening.
Great, I noticed before this. It's a pipe told me 10 to 13
years ago. I was like yeah, I can make a

(01:47:36):
better Street by like mistreatment by Capcom was
stinking it up. Yeah.
A couple years back. Yeah.
I like, they were like He had a bad Street Fighter, was they
improved given that, but it was bad.
They were do do for men. Then Resident Evil 2.
Remake came out, we were like, oh, that Resident Evil 7 was
some people. Love evil fans, from old-school.

(01:48:00):
Really like here, we're trying something new without I can't
say. Listen without reasonable 7.
Wouldn't have Capcom the weight is now and without Monster
Hunter. We wouldn't have especially my
son. Yeah, I'm not gonna shut up.
We would have Capcom the way it is now, but that's what we need
Microsoft to do. We need Microsoft to be Capcom
to look at these old titles. Do these remakes do it like hat

(01:48:21):
cam does now and if you're making new titles do it like
they did Street by 26 do it likethey're doing that like they
have people who care. All right.
And they pulled, they pulled back from being garbage with
Microsoft, has I mean they say they don't but still wouldn't
make it exclusive though either.No.
No. I'm sorry about this.
I'm just, I'm just saying that. Do they have?

(01:48:41):
They need to do a Capcom then right now and they came out
there. Ashes they came out here is what
came out of the ashes came out in the bathroom, completely
terrible games that nobody caredabout and really losing faith in
the company. Yeah, being one of the top Elite

(01:49:02):
game makers out right now Capcom.
Yeah. And they're like the only
company that really did it like that.
Yeah. Nintendo has never really went
to like they haven't really Burnt down like it's it has been
steady with what they do. They do what they do and that's
Nintendo ain't never been like oh nine inches making fun of

(01:49:22):
crap. There's never been a just the we
you they made a couple of titlesof that was like an outer out
that title but you know they tried.
I don't know about that. Mario Sunshine though.
You know what do y'all think? Some people love?
Mario some people love the fuck out.
This is the first Mario deeply. I mean, I know it makes it not
fair. I still don't like I do an
internal bought the studio but Mmm, Platinum.

(01:49:46):
Make a good but it would be great if they make it a great
time. I won't play them come out their
own system. Yeah.
But they're like a Capcom. Yeah.
They are like they used to what if Microsoft boy retro soft
Studios. There we go, retro.

(01:50:09):
So then you'll have a tons of wrestling games.
Yeah. And then you would have Mike
Herman starring in his own. Own 3D open world game.
Yeah. Mick Mike Herman.
Yep. They would have to buy like a
ton of Indies if you're going that route.
Yeah. I like what they bought like
game, passman, what you call it.Yes weight forward.

(01:50:32):
If they bought a Way Forward, something like that and like a
package deal, they would need toget like, wait for T, mu naught,
Nicholas D mu D, mu, especially that emu Jesus.
I'm saying that, although in thefreaking All-Stars, man, well
they put treasure that, they're not even a thing.

(01:50:52):
What the hell? That's what that's garst,
Gunstar Heroes and guardian Heroes.
They'll basically an Alouette, Mirage.
Some amazing new though. They have made recent what
treasure made. Something they did what?
Wait, they're a company. Still, I did make something they
used to be like, the last maybe three days to be one of my
favorite companies. Well, base is an offshoot of
Konami so amazing, other companies like Indie creates and

(01:51:16):
stuff. You can see them making, I get
the guy who made Mega Man and them together.
And that's what you need to do with your money.
Like, hire the people who made these games like, you know,
blood-stained dude who makes Castlevania.
Yeah. That's like if you by Konami you
hired this for the exactly like you get these people back to

(01:51:37):
work on these projects. Well speaking of that since you
split up well not blood-stained,I was thinking a blood-borne,
they should get from software that would be a smart
acquisition which was that from software is dialing ring.
Now there now didn't they make armored Core they made?
Yes, yes and I can see that typeof game being a Microsoft thing.

(01:51:58):
That's what they do do is comingout, you know, that's the like a
great idea. Because like, there's also much
like like this, I don't know, like a lot of these companies
were making some of these games.Like I saw, I don't know who it
is. They're like doing this boxing
game. It looks like a fight night or
whatever. Like when you see either of its
fan-made or a bunch of people were making some shit.
Yeah, find them and make a new one because obviously they got
something from the game that youmade.

(01:52:19):
So just pay them take their idea.
Just come out with the fucking game.
It's like, He's taking your money to put the puzzle back
together. It's basically a zombie game.
The day before whatever. Get out there.
Stay the K. Why don't you just fucking
mirjam? Like it?
So maybe we'll get a game done. Yeah.
And you get it cuz I haven't seen shit aesthetic. 83, the
one, you know, so that's the business model that Budweiser

(01:52:40):
use it by all the microbreweriesand they just own them and I
just I mean let them do that. Unfortunately, they are buying
all these companies that so happy can't even name companies
like we used to right? Yeah, right.
There's no, we can't Name all the Oh Come.
Oh, I got one. This one doesn't exist anymore.
The Acclaim yeah, yeah, exactly Midway signals

(01:53:15):
and sometimes they do from thesecompanies are somewhere else
somewhere. Yes.
Things like this just like they did with music industry just
like they did with movie industry.

(01:53:36):
We have the money like three to four companies left.
Yeah and I really sucks for whenyou're looking to do something
creative Gathering them like Pokemon.
Yes, yeah. That's true.

(01:53:56):
Gets kind of collect them all. Oh man the MB they need to buy
all these companies that are making these crazy games in
Korea but never come out, how many how many Outsiders did you
see? The look crazy and it doesn't
come out. Yeah.
But a Pokemon game because they can silence.
The one, the one with the guy was skateboarding around, it's

(01:54:17):
like you do every type of game in there.
Look like an enemy and was like,what happened to that game?
No, no. It was what happened to that
game? But to make like these crazy
demos there was that it was likethe Ninja Gaiden, looking game

(01:54:38):
that got a few, a few trailers. And people like this looks
great. It's not moot long, but it's
like like it's like that cuz it's not it's not Korean.
But the Superman fan made game that look freaking knows God
that looks okay. So that's why I'm like, this is
like a almost, like a finished game but most of all that was
Like, take that mechanic. I'll toss it up and idea, that

(01:54:59):
is money. Oh my God, let me go on Twitter.
Let me see if I can pull this up.
I can still just going to it andoffer a million and pick up a
like ten companies. Are these people doing these
games? Dude, I watch some of that this
the powers in the shit. The environment was like
definitely it was so beautiful but that guy and then get

(01:55:21):
freaking the dudes who made Batman together, put them
together. Well yeah, I was gonna say
Rocksteady. Yeah.
They should get his rocks. They might think about to lose
money. He's a muscle bottom right after
that, not because I will wait till they crash because I look
like not Engine 5. They know what they're doing
with DC, you know, with the DC Universe and stuff.
And you know, some of these got like Insomniac with the Marvel

(01:55:43):
stuff is fight, what Spider-Man Wolverine.
So I think they should definitely get that.
I just wish they would. I was crazy ways out.
This is the fan made Superman. That's insane.
Running on unreal. Five to come out.
Yeah, Iron Man. Game on unreal 5.

(01:56:03):
It looked insane everything on the, yeah.
I mean, it's a, you know what, Iwaitressed say, I just want to
say, I just want to Matrix game that is just gonna Matrix Game
period, Please, their leader should have been one of the
words out there that say, I don't know what's going on.
It, based on the movie, The Kingnobody wanted.

(01:56:41):
Collection of games that they can put on Gamepad so whatever
they do. I know he's kind of square is
probably not for sale. Like certain companies are just
not percent, right? I'll fix companies that are
making a ton of money right now.Really don't need Microsoft.
So I don't know what will happenif this blizzard deal.
Doesn't go through PlayStation pay, everyone to stay exclusive

(01:57:03):
and then everyone be okay with that area.
Yes, on you do it I mean people are pissed Tony.
We've been doing it for the past.
How many years bro? Sony slow down there.
They're porting to PC. Slowed it down and explode at
The Last of Us. Yeah.
That that Port was garbage. Yeah, if Michael said did it
wouldn't come out. Yeah.

(01:57:27):
So let us know what you think, Microsoft should do and what
companies you think would benefit by the way.

metamorphic Force. Hey there in 3D, there goes work
