(04:13):
Sleeping. I'm going to remix it, man.
In this loop you go crazy. 444444 All right, let's talk
about the games we played this past week.
Hell yeah, man. We're going to start off with
Marvel. Rabble, rabble rabble rivals.
Marvel rivals everyone. That's right, we played this

(04:35):
Sunday. Did we play though?
No. This, this I think we got
played. This this probably is one of the
most painful. Stop the FL.
No, you got a painful experienceplaying this game, this this
past week. This was foul.
We won like 2 matches, but therewere like bots.
No, now we beat 111. We won actually a total of three
or four against actual humans, and we beat.

(04:56):
Bots twice. Well, that I that I played
because I have to leave early. But yeah, it was, it was a rough
time. There was a lot of death.
Oh yeah. What was the?
What was the update in this one?Listen, they've they've updated,
so they released. The Phoenix.
They did so many like stages that I don't, I've never played
on and I don't know where to hide and then they find me.
They buffed. They buffed Punisher.
Yeah, Punisher's been buffed. Buffed them.

(05:17):
To the grave, yeah. They buffed thing yeah, then got
a couple new moves yeah. It's I feel like they reworked
the characters around a little bit.
That ice arrow that Hawkeye had has with the Lunas?
No, I can't remember her last name.
I. Was like you idol.
I don't. Know Yeah, yeah, I was brain

(05:38):
farting, you know? Western Encyclopedia with comic
books. No, no, no, it's no.
It's because Captain Crunch keeps calling her Luna Star.
Wow. And she's a completely
different. Person.
Wow. And I was like Lunas in the
snow. Yeah, he he was fighting very
hard. Yeah, I, I sure was.

(05:59):
I sure was. But yeah, they, they, they
nerfed it a little bit. So I'm a little upset about
that. But you know, Hawkeye still
dope. Still fun.
He can still one shot like the Flyers, so it's.
I definitely need to. I got to I got to practice.
This is something I can't play every time that we play like
like a Mario Kart. I could do that with Mario Kart.
I I can't do that with this gamebecause when you have live
service games and you keep having updates and new

(06:20):
characters, you have to evolve with the game or you're gonna
get left behind. You take a break and that's it.
Yeah. So this has to be in a rotation
of me at least getting a couple of matches in, messing around
with maps and stuff like that, because it was it was so
embarrassing, especially when they like all the updates that
they did to the game. Like the the update, first of
all was huge. 56 gigs. Yeah, it just took me an hour to

(06:43):
download. I'm like, yo, what's?
A whole new game. We we downloaded all the elves
before we even play. Oh, and then we streamed it
live. I know we streamed it.
Yeah, but yeah, I agree, man, you got to you got to grow with
the game when they when they have an update, like play it so
you can get used to it. We we have them the same.
I haven't played since the last time we streamed and it's AI got

(07:04):
forced to play only two characters.
I usually play 4 to 5. I yeah, I said I'm stuck with
Hawkeye and I you're more luck. I'm a healer.
I guess you have to stick with what, like I was doing what was
it, freaking Scarlet Witch and Moon Night.
I tried Punisher. I was getting beat.
I was getting beat and. I was like, alright, well see,
that's. Why?
Everyone who plays the game has to be good with a bunch of

(07:25):
characters so you can mix and match.
Yeah, with, with who's good at what, who's good at this, You
know, maybe this even Turbo was using a healer for once, which,
Jesus. And I said, Oh my God.
Because you have to, everyone has to get good at every
position, you know? So Captain America popped in.
He used to be like, my #2 that dude was getting murdered.
I would step on the the the the the stage and obliterate it.

(07:49):
Yeah, with, with Cap, I think they lowered his health bar a
little bit. I got murdered in seconds.
Also shout out to Riken man. Yeah, CGB Riken came through and
tried to carry the team and it just didn't work.
Yeah, I mean, he, I mean, he didthe best.
He did the best he could. He did the best he could.
Yeah. What up Song?
What up song? What up?
What up? What up?
Yeah, he did the best he could to hold this down.

(08:09):
I'm like yo this is not going well.
This is not definitely doing. I think one match it was like I
had two kills, Turbo had three, you had four, someone had zero.
I was like, this is sad, fuckingsad.
Yeah, 'cause we got steamrolled,Yeah, so.
I tied someone that wasn't there.
Yeah, you could have popped in and put up the same exact stat.

(08:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's.
Why? Yeah, it.
Was like, come on, happy to helpout.
Yeah, happy. We were all trash.
We were. Yeah.
Paul, See, we had like 3 healersin a match.
Yeah. And it just for the sake of
surviving longer than 5 seconds.It's like heal, heal, heal,
heal, heal that. Dad, Dad.
That was not fun at all. No, I was.
We could not even like, no, I got to practice.
I got to practice. Yeah, that's what happens.

(08:53):
So that's what happens. And that we paid for it.
So that is what it is. Oh, man, talking about live
service games, I've been giving a lot of run to Hell divers too.
And holy crap, man, I'm addictedto this game.
It's a it's so I'm addicted to this game.
It's so fun, but I unlock so much stuff.
We're going to have a lot of fun.
You guys play. Oh, you, you, you unlock the.

(09:16):
I unlocked the Yeah, I unlocked the vehicle and I tried.
I just did one match with the vehicle just to test it out.
Oh my God, it's pretty fun. Did you put some rims on that
shit? Actually, you you can customize
really put. Yeah, put some DS on it.
I don't know what they like. They had some stuff that you can
unlock like purchase or whatever, but you can you can
put. Some pinners on it.
I customized my my shotgun pinners.

(09:38):
I customized my shotgun to to a white shotgun.
It's dope with camera with. Camera has to be white that.
'D be ill got camo on it man yo,that'd be.
Dope. It's powerful.
Wow, wow. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you get the Tommy bomb?

(09:58):
That was the Mini 1. The hell bomb.
I did not get that so. Yeah, you gotta get that.
I need to get the exo suit 20,000 credits and holy crap but
you're at the you're at the level you can get it though
right I can yeah I can get it. I just need to play more to get
to get money to buy SARS said wow.

(10:19):
But I oh, another thing I unlocked too was a, I forgot
what this is called, but it's a,it's a defensive force field
shield. Yes.
And when I played online with other people, they were, they
were throwing it at the extraction point.
So they can't break that. So, yeah.
So they could just well, you could shoot, you could shoot.
They can walk through it. They can walk through it, but
they can't shoot past it. Oh, so that blocks like those

(10:39):
robot folks? It's just for projectiles.
Have we ever beaten the stage with those robot folks?
No, no, we haven't played. But now I have so I also unlike
what was it? I got up to an unlocked hell
dive difficulty and holy shit, man, welcome to hell.
It's like a it's like you're in war.
You're like. One shot kill.
Huh. One shot kill.

(10:59):
No, it's just less healing fat, more like less time to do
objectives and more enemies see if it's less time.
To me that's not fun. I I don't I don't like to get
yeah, I'd rather just have time to do stuff.
Well, when you're playing with people that are like 100 level
160 a 120, so. If you got the weapons to deal
with it then. Fine.
And they all, they have every weapon they have, they're like
it's hobby, carry you through the whole thing.

(11:20):
Well, they can, they can have fun with, they can have fun
with. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I did play on on hard by myself just solo and I talking
about difficulty. Pause.
He's. Come.
On pause. Come on, playing.
Hard by myself. You all do that.

(11:42):
Playing the week he. Doesn't really play hard by
yourself. So.
Yeah, Play the outro, play the outro, play the outro.
It was a podcast, y'all. Yeah.
We're so done. That's the podcast, everyone.
Thanks for watching. Thank you.

(12:03):
I'm done anyway. Yeah, I was able to finish the
whole the whole thing on my own.Oh, the whole thing.
No, no, that's it. It's over now It's over.
Man, you sound like Joey Chess at the Glossy Goblin.
Wow. Where do we go from here, folks?

(12:25):
How do we get here? You're just, you're just
steering it right back into the front like I'm trying to move on
to the next game, all right? So hell, Divers too is fun, all
right. Oh.
Man, Oh, there goes the, the, the, yeah, now this thing.
Is the warthog. It's dope, so you can have
somebody in the back using the the gun.
Awesome and the person, the passengers seat.

(12:46):
Can they shoot or no No, you could just ride.
You can't shoot out the window and shit.
So there's two people in past, two passengers, driver and then
somebody in the back It's. Not like Halo.
So question if they if they managed to blow this up,
everyone dies. Right.
Yep. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The same as the same as Halo. And there is there energy for
it. You can blow up the vehicle.
Yes. No, I mean like, do you know,

(13:07):
like if you're in danger, was itgoing to be smoking or like,
yeah, you could, you could, you could.
What do you mean like is there an energy?
Can you tell if it's going to blow up?
No. Oh, you can't tell.
Is it it? Does it like?
So I'd be smoking more. Yeah, it does.
Good 'cause you I didn't. I've only been in one battle.
We'll find out. How I've only been in one battle
where I just want to jump off the fucking thing when it's

(13:28):
about to blow up. I'm like, yo, this, this is
fucking dangerous. But you can't jump out.
You can't jump out and it's weird driving it though it it
drives fine. It's just if you have to go to
reverse, if you look at the bottom of the screen there you
see the, the, the the shifter nut letters.
Ah, yeah, there you go. See the reverse neutral Dr. You
have to hit the bumpers. You have to hit the left bumper

(13:49):
to change to go left and right to to change the the driving
position. So you can go in reverse neutral
first second gear. It's like a.
Real car. Is he in the middle of the city
with that though? Yeah, no, it's weird, man.
You. Leave it outside the city and
get to it and get the hell out of shit.
We're going to have to find out who the best driver in this
shit. What's dope is you could just
you can call it, you can call itdown so you can get it like to

(14:11):
to get through missions faster. What's going on?
He's just trying to run over everybody.
That is not good idea. Maybe I don't.
Know. Oh, he has a flamethrower?
That's a dope weapon. They got a lot of stuff going
on. That's a dope weapon.
Just make. Just make it 5 players already,
guys. Come on, man.
Enough's enough. Enough's enough, man.
It's dope though, man. It's dope.

(14:33):
What else? What else?
Another game I played. It's an indie game.
I talked about it last week. It's a suit for hire.
Yes, the John Wick simulator. It's like Max Payne, John Wick
and Seafood put together. Get out of here.
Suit. Pretty dope and I'd learned.

(14:53):
I thought it was fixed where youcould do top down perspective or
third person and you can actually switch.
Yeah, I thought it was. You have to pick one or the
other that was just for the tutorial in the beginning.
But this game is, it's addictive, it's fun.
It really is like seafood. If it was, you mean that game

(15:15):
that I beat like 2 weeks ago? It's like seafood but with guns.
Seafood with guns and Max Payne.It has a bullet time.
Also you guys weapons like samurai sword.
I got up to the second stage andI got the samurai sword which is
dope. One hit kill.
Pulse, he said. He picked this up.

(15:36):
Oh, nice. It's a dope game.
It's a dope game. A very indie though, very indie
like. I could use some Polish.
I could use some Polish, but it's super fun, Super fun.
It's a good pick up and play super duper.
But yeah, that's pretty much allI played.
All right. And then Chuck, how was Smash

(15:56):
Friday, man? Oh yeah, I forgot about that.
You got to ask Turbo with that about that because like about an
hour into the stream, really it was it was it was three of us
playing, three people playing and it and I hit him with the 2
for one special, knock them bothout at the same time and to
finish the match, knock them both out at the same time.

(16:17):
Yeah, buddy. Yeah, it was.
They were not happy with me. And you said that was an hour
in. Yeah, just about an.
Hour. Well, if they get hit with a
you're not going to be happy, man.
I'd be very upset. It was an hour in.
Yeah, I think this might have been it.
Yep. And I just got killed.
That was. Great, you were rocking with

(16:37):
Gandalf. Yeah, most of the time, yeah.
Not disgracing my bylaw. Who is shut up?
Any any newcomers that join the stream or no the usual suspects?
That really looks new. No.
Who's Ridley? That guy's looks like he's new.
Yeah, the person who was playingRidley was new.
Fucking hate. Fucking hate Ridley.
I never seen Ridley in this game.

(16:59):
It was. That's 212 from special on.
Me Ridley's got some moves. OK, so yeah, I.
Don't think I've ever seen him in the game.
Somewhere around this part the. 2 Is it this?
Is this the stage? This should be, yeah.
Oh really? The 240 and this was the two for
one. Yeah. 2 for the price of 1
though it's. Called.
It's called a happy birthday. I forget what it is.

(17:19):
One of these things. It's called that if for some
reason, I don't know why. Yeah, dude, like I was actually
playing like I knew like I had since.
He just died right there. I know he.
Said Nah, you just died right there.
I mean, at least I played, yeah.I'm just, I'm just telling you,
I saw. I'm telling you what I saw.
Bong bong, there we go. Oh, we.
Call that special. See, that was, that was

(17:40):
especially nice. I told you.
I'm just telling you what I saw.Yeah.
Yeah, Bizarre Smash Online is fucking vicious.
Yeah, it is vicious. Yeah, I haven't played online
and Smash Bros. Maybe a?
Year it's not for the faint of. Heart and I'm I'm almost
terrified to come back because they will welcome me back with

(18:00):
open arms. Dedicated cheetahs Dedicated.
Cheat and they will dig a grave.Yeah, they will be like, oh, you
used to be pretty dope. Hold up.
Welcome. I didn't stop playing.
I just thought of Luigi can justlike easily kick you up the side
now. I never saw that.
Now there's a lot of disrespectful cheap shit that
people figured out, man. Like you're hanging on edge.
They could just pop pop your knuckles.

(18:22):
I think so. With a little little kick, Yeah,
that's Louie. Just got some cheap ass shit.
His hands behind his back get him on.
Just mad casual. It's foul.
I do miss that game though. And also sticks.
How was Grand Blue Fantasy relink?
Yeah, so I'm still going back into my RPG error.

(18:43):
I guess there's a couple of themthat I got to catch up on and
this is one of them. Trying strategy.
That is like strategy RPG. That's different.
This is the J. This is the JSRPG.
JRPG. Does it stand for Jason RPG?
Japanese man. But yeah, it's it's, it reminds
me of like classic, classic RPGs, even though it's like not

(19:04):
turn, turn bases. Is that like tails?
Yeah, kind of. It's like.
A. So it's like an action turn
based action RPG. Your characters, you're gonna
sign them to do stuff, but I letthem do what they do, OK.
And you control your character basically like the Tales Tales
games. Oh man, it's just funny.
Is that this is Co-op online. I just never.
I don't know how to set. That up, but that's it's a mode,

(19:25):
right Or is it story? It says Co-op write my pause.
Put the fuck. Out of here and it says pick the
characters so I'm like wow. Whoa, that's a misstopic we got.
We got to figure something out. We got to have a talk at this
podcast. How far are you in the game?
4 hours now I think. I was gonna say I'll join in,
but No 4 hours. Listen no, we have to restart
too at the beginning. Those types, I love playing

(19:47):
those games. Those type of like Co-op games.
Oh my God. And that's like that looks like
tails. Well the character like I said
the characters don't deny all you like there's literally 5
different like guys with swords like that's in truth items your
characters but. I have to say though like play
dialogue, the dialogue is still very JRPG ish.

(20:07):
I like default default. Has it been translated 100%?
I mean, it's it's cheese. There's like some cheese in
there, but like the game itself is beautiful and the music is
very final fancy type too. So but old school Final Fantasy.
So, so far it's really good. Looks fucking nice.
Play this we shall. Yeah, I got to look into.

(20:27):
I still got to look into the coop though and see what you
need because if I could lend youthe game you could play online
that'd be cool. Oh shit, dreamy touch myself, I
will. Oh man, wow.
So it's Co-op, two player Co-op or what?
4 multi four, Yeah, I think so. Is it?
Or is it more 4 right? There's four in the squad.
A4 in squad. Car, yeah, you could pick change

(20:49):
out your party and stuff. That's cool.
I want to see what that's about.And they got like different
armor and stuff. Like I just got a whole new set
of armor and it's different, a different look on the character
in. The ocean.
Oh, no. On the screen.
See, now, see, now, now see. It's all about the little things
for me, man. Like if you get armor in a game
or a sword and that shit changes.
I fucking love that. Yeah, I I'm obsessed with shit

(21:09):
like that. I like the artwork.
Back in. I was wondering if I remember
how to play, and I was like, yeah, I pretty much picked it
back up right away. I could go through some bosses.
I'm like, all right, I could beat some bosses.
Now I think I'm OK. I would try.
I would definitely. This is tails.
This is pretty much tails. Yeah, it has like Vesperia, I
mean other Asperia it has well that too, but I carry Chronicles
graphics basically like the clean, clean anime look I.

(21:32):
Love. Yeah, it all looks beautiful.
Looks, looks, but they follow around like like fancy star,
like, you know, the character Folly and.
Don't and don't let me know if this game has promotions.
If it has promotions, I'll startcrying that I don't know.
That's the most important thing to.
Upgrade the weapons and this stuff.
But that's insane. I haven't learned all.
About it, I, I would, you know what's so crazy just off of

(21:52):
that? Mentioning those things I'll
play in 2 seconds. Like just those things alone I
will play in 2 seconds just because of those things.
It's very important. You gotta play clear.
I'm scared though. I'm never going to say no.
I'm still trying to figure out how to have time to play RPGs.
Because. Because remember, I unit
chronicles, I'm at like 15 hoursand I'm like, I don't know how I
could figure out to play this game because I, it's, I don't

(22:15):
know, RPGs and open world games.Those, those are like the, the
time sync, But you know, it's crazy.
And the counter argument is, Eric, how you going?
You always find time to play strategy RPGs.
That's that's different. I'll make a sacrifice and not go
out that week. I can't make that sacrifice for
a regular RPGs because I don't. That's not my type.
Regular RPGs aren't my type of games.
Roundabout Clare Upscares Roundabout about 30 hours, 25 to

(22:37):
30 hours. That's why I was suggesting to
you, OK, OK, I played it for like 50 to 60, but you can
roundabout and. Sea of Stars was a special type
that was a special. Type that plays like that,
that's why. These are all on my damn
backlog. Like I want to get it all
depends on how many people send like you know, super chats.
You know, I could quit my job, Icould quit my job.
I don't have time to wow. We need what time for games.

(23:01):
I'm gonna do this full time so Icould just catch up on all.
I still got to play Dead Space too.
Actually. Damn it, If somebody invented a
way to play video games while you sleep, let me stop.
Yeah. I mean they do have Pokémon
sleep they tried. Bad man.
You know what it's gonna be. It's gonna come to a point where
I mean, well, it's already therebecause I'm gonna just start
paying for games to have other people play them like I'm gonna

(23:23):
play. YouTube.
Yeah, well, watching other people play, well, I'm gonna,
well, you know, I already said I'm gonna buy the game.
I'll just so Chuck can play it. So, you know, that's what we'll
you know, that's where I'm headed.
We don't have to do this. It's a birthday present for you.
Happy birthday. I have 7 boulders gate 3 play
through. Oh geez.

(23:44):
I bought Boulders Gate 3 and it is not the game I expected it to
be and I will not beat it. It's not intriguing to me.
I've seen a bunch of It's just not intriguing to me.
I'm not intrigued by that. Game not like the game play of
it. I know everyone says it's the
best game of all time but I cannot get into how.
Like I'm not even stuck in the game, it's just like I don't
want to play it. I know exactly what that is.
I I've been there before. I'm like, I just don't want to

(24:06):
play it. But those like the the tons of
Dragons mechanic, I don't understand.
Like that world said, the terminology and stuff.
I'm not. I don't know what any of this
stuff is. What are you, a noob?
So it's a it's a large learning curve then?
Possibly, but like I said, I'm not stuck in the game.
It's just like if I go somewhereI'm not supposed to go, I'm
instantly dead. Wow.
Like instant, but I mean, last thing I did, I played that for

(24:28):
like maybe about four or five hours.
Gotcha. But yeah.
Didn't grab you. Yes, sorrow.
Look at that. Yes, sorrow.
Sorry, what up man? It's your.
Job, Yeah. Thank you, Sir.
You know, cheers to Siren for the Super chat right there.
Cheers. Cheers.
Cheers. Drinking some sake.
Thank you, Sir. Yes, cheers, Cheers.
Appreciate. Quitting our job.

(24:50):
Yeah, sorry. Thank you.
Oh my, that's all. I've been playing with you.
How about you? I am playing Castlevania
Portrait of Ruin. That is correct.
Actually. It's funny because I forgot that
I bought the pack after I beat Ecclesia 3 of.
Them man what's that? Is that 3 pack?
Yeah 3 pack and everyone always raves about this one so I was

(25:12):
like you know, let me get like at least two hours in just to
see what the hype's about. This game is dope.
Yep, this is like, really fucking dope.
I like switching the character. No, it's it's seamless.
Like like the switching of the characters is smooth and that
you could have them come in there for an attack, you could
switch jump off their fucking head, you could have them walk
with you. It's really awesome.

(25:34):
And like the two of them, you know, you have the magician, you
have the the dude who could either use swords or or Spears
or whips. It's fucking awesome.
It's a really cool game man. Really, really cool game.
I have like 2 complaints. Portable one.
No, not even not not even not even 1 complaint is how the fuck

(25:54):
was this not Co-op? Oh yeah, like that is Gal
Guardians. That is legit Gal Guardians
because it was on a handheld. That's why.
Say it, say it again, say it again now it was originally on
handheld. Fucking bullshit.
That's why. That's why I hate handheld.
Turbo 857 in the chat Speaking of.
Turbo. What up?
Turbo? Yeah.
Portrait Ruin. I played two 2 1/2 hours or
something like that. It's solid.

(26:16):
It's very solid. Music's dope as always, and you
feel powerful. Was it Charlotte?
I think her name is Charlotte. Charlotte.
Like I just got like a wind spell and a fire spell and I
switched between them. I'm like, you know, the spells
are fucking cool as shit. Like you just feel, it's kind of
how I wish Shinoah felt in Ecclesia.

(26:39):
I felt like, I just felt like the game wasn't like I think
they left things on the table and this, this feels more like a
complete game and I'm only two, 2 1/2 hours in.
Like there was a lot of issues to me with the IT just felt like
mainly handheld. This feels like the dopest game
on a handheld, but it felt like it could be on console
seamlessly. You know, it was evolution.
Yeah, yeah. I just felt like.

(27:01):
You didn't get to like the parts, the portrait parts.
I I got to the the first painting, so you got yeah, which
is which is really fucking cool.That really, really awesome
concept. So I instantly like that, but
I'm like, this screams out Co-opman.
Like it really does. So definitely fucking enjoying
it. Me and I played.

(27:21):
It's a boss rush. Deed Lit Wonder Labyrinth,
Sauru. Yeah, we played that.
I didn't beat it because I forgot and I don't know what I
played it on. I'm thinking it was Xbox Game
Pass. I got the early access of of the
game on PC and also portrait ruin feels like the stages are
bigger and more and more castle like a more like Symphony in the

(27:42):
night. Like then I felt Ecclesia they
could just confined it. This is the little small area
and that's it. You know, if they broaden it,
like made it bigger, I thought it would you know, I thought
it'd be very, very dope, but I Ijust feel like they didn't
really give Shinoa that many spells.
I just felt like it was like a solid 3 that I used that were

(28:03):
any good? Even in even in the the pocket
the portable mode me and turbo plated the boss rush multiplayer
because that's all they offered.That's bullshit.
I know. I wish the regular game was 2.
Players. It should have been.
It should have been. Sup.
Sasquatch. Yeah Sasquatch.
Oh, I forgot to get Sarua there you go but no gal guardians,

(28:26):
especially the new one. Oh my God, I can't wait to to
play it that little bit further.But yeah, you could do Med Troy
Vania's two player co-ops on theway.
Everyone's. Back then.
I know everyone's a big pussy. Konami doesn't do it though.
Yeah. Yeah, Konami, doesn't anyone?
Speaking of big, Konami doesn't do much, yeah.
I mean styles styles. Excited about the new blood
stain. I could be, I gotta wait and

(28:46):
see. I like it, looks dope.
I see a lot of Co-op but I want to know how that Co-op is
incorporated. I hope it's just not a mode.
But we'll definitely be playing it.
Two players, yeah, I still got to go back and check on the two
player mode in the old one. Oh, that's right.
Yeah, they released it. Yeah, they released it because
the 1st 2 characters you could be is Miriam and Miriam like how
you started the two of the same character like.
There's 3 characters you can pick now.

(29:08):
Yeah, 3 or 4. The wasn't Zengetsu and.
Whatever other characters. But I'm digging it, loving it,
look forward to beating it and playing Donna Sorrow after
because I want to see what everyone, because everyone says,
oh, this is better, this is better and I'll figure it out
which one my favorite is after that turn.
The show, but it. Beats silence your phone.
Someone's phone is on. No, no, it's actually silence.

(29:29):
But for some reason notificationthat that comes through.
I don't know why. Stop it.
It's voice activated. Stop it.
God damn it. It's voice activated.
Shut my phone. Stop messaging me.
All right? Yeah, that's all I'm playing
for. I will get back to Jedi Survivor

(29:50):
probably next week. Yeah.
Cool, actually I'll play them both at the same time 2.
At a time. Good days, days.
Wow, Jesus. Dude, I read up on an app I got
to see how this works. I read up on an app that lets
you play multiplayer like old school retro games and it's
supposed to split the screen in four and you can like play them
together like on separate screens like a challenge mode.

(30:11):
What you mean? So like if I'm playing, I don't
do like Ninja Gaiden and you play Ninja Gaiden, play Ninja
Gaiden. And we're battling each other.
It's like a race to get through the stage.
That would be pretty dope if it does that.
Yeah, that's interesting. And then you can see how many
times Jay dies. It's like Mario.
We'll do that with Resident Evil.
It's like Mario 35 for. That works.

(30:32):
If it works that way, that'll bepretty damn dope.
That's interesting. But I have to look into it.
If it works, it'll be on the channel you guys will know all
about. It Oh I would love to see Chuck
and Al play Ninja Gaiden at the same time.
Yes, yes, yes, yes. Yes, that would be amazing.
He's so awesome. I'd be so mad.
I'm getting honestly. I'm getting mad just thinking
about it. Yeah, same.

(30:53):
So I remember that time I playedMad Guy in two for Nintendo.
Bad memories. I beat the game, but I'm just
like, yeah, I'm never playing this.
At what cost? You played the 3D ones though.
Yeah, I don't even mess with the3D ones, man. 3D ones were fun
but I I tried playing ninja gaidin black and bro they're.
Difficult, dude. They're difficult.
I started with taking this guy in black.

(31:13):
Talk about games you used to be good at I.
Was like fuck the. Street.
I thought I was good at this game.
I'm getting beat up by Hench. Men, they will fuck you up.
Your game will go in slow motionin seconds.
By hench men I'm like what? Crazy, man, Crazy.
Anyway, why? All right, let's talk about the
indie game of the week. Yo, this shit is strong.

(31:36):
Wow, that's not the game. Yeah, it could be.
Anyway, indie game is. CD Run released October 24th,
2019. Developed and published by Quack
Quack Games. Available on the Xbox One and
Steam. Oh yeah, quack, quack.

(31:59):
I got thousands of chickens. Quack, quack.
Quack, quack, quack. Wow, wow.
Shout out to Quack Mike. Yo, Mike.
Yeah. Yeah, I like this game.
Wait, oh, oh, this is not footage of this is a trailer.
I do have that footage. I will put it play.
Oh wait, they they Oh no, they don't have my character.
This is a trailer because I had the stupid eyes with the lips
That shit is amazing. Now this game is fun as fuck.

(32:21):
Yeah. Actually this needs more fucking
run on the channel. It's stupid.
We haven't played. We played four years ago.
We played four players though. Damn, we played five, didn't we?
Did we? Did we do five players?
I don't think so. We were.
I think it was 4. No, we played four players, yes.
'Cause it's it's like 8 players.Though I think we did but at one
point but we didn't stream it. Yeah, it is the most the most

(32:43):
simplified way of gaming, but even that could be the funnest.
Dude and the music, Dick as hell.
Yeah, the music was dope. It's so funny 'cause like when
the stage flips upside down, I'mlike, I'm useless sometimes.
I hate that part. That's the part of that.
Can't do it. Any video game, any platform
game, you flip it upside down. Done.
What was it, Mario? The Contra.
The new Contra garage doesn't. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(33:04):
Holy crap. And it turns.
I'm like, my brain doesn't. No, I can't register you.
You flip upside down on the couch, try to play.
It's like me trying to right with my left hand.
I'm like, I can't. You just got the TV.
Just get a monitor that can fliparound.
That's why you put it on your phone.
But yeah, this is this is the four player that we had four
years ago. Oh, wait, just you'll probably

(33:24):
see footage of Jay cheating. Oh, that's the first fucking
shitty design I picked. I didn't like that one eye, the
double eye, but I have the lips.Oh, that was actually it's me
and J Wow me and J cheated Yes, look at.
That scumbag. That's a hideous fucking face.
Gum bags. Any, anytime someone gets to

(33:46):
that one little area that, no, it's like, oh, here comes this,
here comes the scum. I'm trying to remember, like
when somebody jumps on your head, you can't jump or you
can't move. No, it goes like this a little
bit. You have to move left to right
to get him off you. But it's still that's annoying.
Yeah, there's a lot of fucked upand they're like quick matches.
It's like oh every it's like 510seconds or whatever.
Depending on like what the layout is, you can get screwed

(34:07):
in the first 3 seconds. Yep, there we go and be very
furious. Here's one.
Yeah, that. Yeah, I was mad.
This one right here, everything this is this is in the middle of
the stream. Jay had the Pac-Man guy that
looked like when it reverses, there you go reverse.
This is a reverse. I'll repeat.
I was mad playing this game because it was platforming and I

(34:31):
had to like. Well, you can screw people over
bad. Well, you can jump at the same
time and like block the jump. Yeah, and there's a dash too.
There's a dash. Yeah.
Strategy in this man. The strategy in this Fast
forward. I hate it.
Yeah, I hate it. Done.
Murdered. Somebody's gonna cheat me some.
Oh, now watch, it's gonna be a little, it's gonna be a little
crevice, and then you're gonna next.
It's always Jay. Right here I'm dead next.

(34:53):
Oh he could have got him. Oh no wait.
I hate how Jamie stopped it. He's such a scumbag in this
fucking game. Please.
Oh no straights he'll he'll randomly just stop.
I hate that right there. Hesitation.
Yeah, die. There, Yeah, stop.
Yep, could have killed him rightthere.
So. Y'all be thinking?
Oh, y'all went for a while here?Yeah, I thought Myas Myas died
very quick. I thought this was over with.
He plays like a dickhead. Is this kind of too upside?

(35:15):
Oh, shot got screwed by the jump.
Oh, I think I remember this. I think I died on this one.
I think you might have died. Unless Jay fucks up.
I forgot where I met that one. Did it go upside down, Jay?
So probably died dumb there. Yeah.
What terrible. Of course I won.
Shit, it's almost like we shouldplay that live, right?
Yeah, freaking crazy, man. Anyway, fun game.

(35:37):
Fun. Game.
CD run. Yeah, it's a dope party game.
Yep. Cuz everybody looks at that and
like I can play that. Yeah, it's easy.
Yeah, you dash and jump, but. Can you play it though?
It's. Just fucking aggravating.
I would love to see Media Glitchplay this and yell at each
other. Hell yeah man.
I wish it gets the official level 857 sealer quality.

(35:59):
Let's go, man. You're.
All right, all right. Oh, sorry about that.
Oh, that's right, he never played the game.
Is it time yet guys? Is it?
Time for time. Shot for doing drinks now, is it
time yet? Come on, man, I'm asking if it's
time yet. Oh, what is it?

(36:23):
Whoa, whoa. Easy there, man.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it istime for the.
News. Why are you messing up this?
Why would you do this? Why, why?

(36:43):
Why would you do that? We had the chance to finally do
the intro. Turbos not here.
And. OK, I can't do the melody
because of my voice. Of course, you can say again,
that would have been the real bass.
That would have been the real bass.
Can't do that. Double Dragon, Double.
Dragon. Oh my God, look what you fucking
did Kev. I'll see how you see how stupid
it is. I want to cycle and kick you in

(37:04):
your face. Kev's mad proud of you.
He's mad proud, mad proud. Terrible.
Terrible what I had to do. That's fucking.
Awful, awful. On with the news.
I'm very upset. I was, I was mad excited.
Here we go, the energy out of the.
Room I was like this is going. To.
Be very cool. I'm like turbos out here.
Why is it happening? It wouldn't have been flawless.

(37:26):
Yo-yo, whatever bro. Halfway through I was just like,
yo forget this, he said. Yo forget this, forget this.
Yo Turbos man, happy. Turn this off.
Turn off the stream. Play the outro.
Play the outro. Yeah, I'll play the outro.
Yeah. We're done, man.
We're done here. I would have played the outro.
Word like I've had enough. Speaking of Turbo, this is one

(37:46):
of his articles. Let's do it.
There we go, of course, the turbo switch.
To the Switch to the perfect example of why consoles don't
feel special during their launches.
Why So as being one of the ones who went on the midnight release
of the Switch to, I can speak from experience that yes, it is

(38:09):
not the same as back in the day.You know why?
There's an easy reason why. Obviously, we're older.
So that's the reason why his legs, his legs started hurting.
Your legs started to hurt while you were waiting on the line.
It's like it was past. I should have got you a Walker,
my God. It's past my bedtime.

(38:29):
Everybody has bones. There is no conversation on the
lines. Everybody's staring into their.
Phone. There's no exciting.
People are looking at reviews, stuff to buy and blah.
Blah, that is true. That's very, that's actually
sad. So no one was talking with each
other at all. No, no, no, no.
So everyone was online not saying a word to each other.
Looking at the phone exactly, that was terrible.
See, I remember Turbo and I got the Wii.

(38:52):
We waited. We waited in for what was it,
Toys-R-Us at the time and we didthe the launch now.
The Wii was at the mall, that was at the mall.
Turbo, you're in the chat. That's what you got.
We were. That's what you got waiting.
OK, so you tell me how, what wasthe memory that I have?
Yo, I just all right, correct mywhat the hell, man?

(39:15):
I'm telling the story, he said. You out, you why you why you
lying to everybody right now, man?
You telling lies to everybody, right?
Just verifying the spot, it was them all.
But yes, go ahead. Because on the line they said,
oh, it was 857 CD that we saw itall.
We were there, you were there, yes.

(39:36):
Look, it didn't used her. Picked it up at what you would
call it. The reason why?
Because the other shit didn't have it and we have to go to
Toys-R-Us to pick it up and we went early.
That's why I was at Toys-R-Us anyway.
OK. I remember waiting in line
though and it was dope because Iremember brought my 3DS or the
2DS. I'm sorry the regular DS and

(39:58):
Turbo had the DS. And other people had this, and
we were like, you know, oh, whatwhat game, you know, what games
do you have and stuff. Oh, actual conversation.
Yeah. Yeah.
Like, it was like, like humans talking.
It was like a community. Oh, they had me pass also.
It was just cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, it was dope. It was dope.
Or the street pass. My bad.
So that was taken out. Interaction between, I mean, but

(40:19):
I went alone, so I wasn't with agroup of people.
So maybe it's different for me. But there was a there was a
funny part, which is kind of obnoxious also, but somebody
flew by in their car, blasted Mario music.
It was hilarious. So somebody was excited, right?
But but yeah, it was very like robotic.
You got in there, you got your stuff, you picked it out left.
But the reason why this wasn't that exciting is because of the

(40:41):
Internet and because everyone was talking about the switch to
for the past five years like there was no, there was nothing
like you knew about it already. There was no surprise.
You know exactly what you were going there for.
It's not like finally I get to pick this up.
And plus this was closer to whatthe switch was.
So when you opened it just like,all right, better switch, same
interface, same basic hand, likeit's the same thing basically

(41:04):
but better. Just souped up.
So it's not like you get to turnit on and say, wow, this looks
different, this is different, this feels better, blah, blah,
blah. So that that type of reason why
it was special. Other times, like when you
bought Xbox and you bought Xbox 360, you're like this is
completely this looks. Different.
Completely different. So it's not only just about
graphics or anything like that, it's just about the feeling of
actually the experience of opening and stuff.

(41:26):
So I can understand why that particular launch wasn't exactly
exciting because people were tired of talking about the
Switch 2 by the time it came out.
Literally when the Switch one came out, it was like, what
about the Switch 2? What about the Switch 2 for
eight years? Like there's.
And then and then the day it's released, we're about to switch
three. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What about the Switch 2 Pro? Yeah, it's like, come.

(41:48):
On I Hate Humans, Yeah. No, seriously.
So humans fucking suck. They suck.
Bizarre. If you were on that line at Best
Buy, then maybe you did see me there, but yeah, it.
Would have been nice if you guyslike called each other.
Yeah. That would be pretty fun.
Like spoke. Right next to each other.
Yep. No, we wouldn't.
On the phone. We.
Wouldn't have spoke, we just listed.

(42:10):
That hey yo. Imagine.
Wow. Yeah. yo-yo.
I mean, right now I couldn't talk.
You wouldn't catch me talking anywhere except if I had a
microphone. Like what do you think?
What did? I'm here to get the switch, too.
What are you picking up? Hail car?
That's the baby saying that's exactly how the interview would

(42:32):
go. Are you excited?
Yeah. Dude, I remember when I picked
up APS two, we were on the news when we picked that up.
That's crazy. I remember somebody got shot.
Well, that's exam. That's why he was on the news.
Jay was What were you doing withthat gun man?
I was joking and he was like, did you see him?
Did you see? I said no, I didn't see nothing.
I said I got phantom vision. I remember.

(42:53):
You got that? That game was terrible.
Jesus. I did not open it.
I returned it to Toys R. US Fireworks.
But but yeah, that was that was no, there was no news report
there. There's nothing like it was just
very lackluster. Did you get any any bonuses for?
No, I mean if you. Didn't have anything like
special. Coin that you can get for buying

(43:15):
or pre ordering? I did not get one.
A coin, you shove it up your ass.
Wow. Coin the.
Boy no. I was not the guy blasting the
music. I know actually.
That'd be great. We should have been, to be
honest. I should have been like a Mario
Brothers cipher on the line. Out the window, I was like,

(43:37):
dude, you're gonna crash. Yeah, we should have been like
fucking playing Mario music, andthen we should have been like
rapping. Yeah, while everyone's online,
just keep. Let your spit your illest Mario
bars. Bro Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo.
But the gold article I could seewhy there wasn't any like magic
moment inside feeling from getting.
It the magic's gone, baby. Well, no, I feel like, and I
feel like another thing with these console releases, you were

(44:00):
kind of uncertain whether or notyou were going to get one.
But with the Switch too, I feel like they were completely
stocked and like everyone knew that they were going to get one
as long as they showed up, you know what I mean?
Or the lab was full of scalpers,didn't care about gaming and
they just went to the cell. That's also a difference.
I think that's a big difference.That's the big difference
between the old days and now is the scalpers online thing.

(44:23):
It's an investment. Yeah, seriously, Sir, do you
have a switch too? Thank you.
I'll buy 500 of. Them I would like all of them.
I'm the first one here 2 days ago yo there was literally
people there two days waiting. That's why I got there an hour
before and was still on the sameline and got one.
That's when you know you don't. You know damn well you ain't got

(44:44):
shit going on. You have two days to burn.
Yeah, there's chill online. There's nothing going on, Adam.
That a launcher. It's sitting down.
I was like, dude, it's way too early.
Did they have a tent also? They said it's like, yeah, this
is, this is easy work cuz I ain't showering.
That's what they're like. I ain't.
What the fuck am I to do after, after I buy this Switch too.
I'm gonna go compete in the Smash tournament and then I'm

(45:07):
gonna go to and then I'm gonna go to Comic Con right after.
And then wave the arms and wave the arms and eat some popcorn
and mix it all with my phone. Oh God, that's what happens,
man. Can you imagine if you like the
you have to have somebody with you.
If you go down early, you can't leave the line.
How do you go piss and then theyeat like you gotta have somebody
with? It's good.
No, it's a diaper, man. No.

(45:29):
Don't they wear diapers? You can't leave the line.
They they wear diapers, Don't they give you like a like a
ticket or something? The night out they did.
The night out they did. I gotcha.
Bizarre, I said. They need to touch grass.
They've been eating. They've been.
Eating grass. Eating the grass.
They're eating grass. No I didn't get 2 at that place.
I ordered one and wasn't sure ifI was getting that one so I went

(45:50):
to get it. So yes they didn't sell it too
well. I'll.
Say it other to add to the hold up.
We got celebrity in the building.
We got John Lisa. Yo, what is good?
What's going on? What's going on, John?
Yeah. Lisa, what are you doing bro?
What is really good celeb in thebuilding?
That's celebrity y'all Celebrityin the building?

(46:12):
What's good, Sir? What is good?
How are you guys coming out tomorrow?
And we are excited. About it, yeah man got a 10 on
IGN. I don't go to IGN but that's
cool. Yeah, no, he got a 10 on IGN,
which means what? That means whatever.
I mean, they hate on everything.So it's like, you know, until
they pay, they get paid and thenit's like, oh, you got a 10 you.
Got a 10. I'm expecting it to be decent so

(46:33):
I don't care what the views are.You know you're getting it
anyway. It's coming.
It's ordered already so. First 5-10 minutes Sticks plays
this game. He will be lost.
Watch. Yeah, shut up.
Wow, he said. Hate, he said.
So much hate when you get lost in games all the time.
I beat these boring Mario games.Now.

(46:54):
I hate it building up. I beat these.
Boring, I know. That anger.
Though but anyway. Maybe in the next article.
Not an ad. Now I was going to say the ad
which I got cut off because of what you would call this in the
chat, but I was going to say to add to that the the the switch
one, when that came out, everybody got it.
We all got it right. And just to to go to show how

(47:17):
how lacklustre console launches are, I didn't get one.
That was expensive as all hell too.
Well, that that I mean, that's afact that I can afford it, but
it's like I don't feel like I need to get a switch to I I
didn't even get it on release. This the the the original
switch. I didn't get it.
I waited. I waited.
For a hot switch at the time when the switch came out, it was
totally different than what you can get on any console.

(47:38):
Actually, you know what it was? I think it was Smash Bros
Ultimate. That's what I said.
Oh, of course, now I got to own it.
Switch to now. I ain't getting shit until
either Fire Emblem or Smash Bros.
Yeah, it should be some. Cheers to that.
Let's go to that next topic, allright.
We'll see what happens when the new systems come out.
PlayStation not Xbox. I don't know about that.

(48:00):
Damn, next news GTA6 rumoured Lucia actor deletes social media
and we all know why. I don't.
It's the smart thing to do. Listen, I think if you were in a
popular eye you should probably delete all social media, but I
know you people need it to interact with people so it's a

(48:22):
double edged sword. It's marketing also.
I know, but I think that they should be those limited to only
posting. Or hire someone to do the
marketing part of it and act like you're you don't be on that
shit. I'm saying don't read it, post
it, and then never read anybody's replies ever.
I don't know. I don't think it's good for your
health, whether it's good or. Bad.
I think I can agree with that, but I could.

(48:44):
I think personally I don't thinkthey should be on social media
at all. Yeah, I mean.
Like at all. At all.
At all. Mentally, yes.
If you're in the public eye or whatever, cuz remember the old
days when like actors and stuff you didn't know what the hell
they. Thought they had a lot of
mistake. They had a lot of mistake, but
nowadays you have to have it. I think this should be social

(49:05):
media for that game, but like you don't have to have it
individually for the people who are in the game just because I
guess if they put up like a shitperformance or a performance
that a lot of people aren't favorable for, they're going to
get like, you know, the hater, the Boo birds, you know, which
is only like usually 20 people, but they sound like they're
3000. But like, you know that and then
all those comments and the burner accounts, Oh, you suck,
you suck, You did a terrible, that sucks.

(49:26):
It's bullshit, it's bullshit. So it's like, you shouldn't have
those. Just have GTA6 and all that,
everyone thinks about the game and the actors can go right to
there and the actors won't even have to deal with that shit.
Well, the thing about this one is the actress that's room to be
playing the character. She's not even like they didn't
even say she was the character yet and the amount of people

(49:47):
going at her account because this is a year, it's going to be
a year before it even comes out.Yeah, so they're just waiting
like this. I mean this.
Is a they're kind of harassing now and she's not even.
How are you harassing someone that's not even the actress?
Not even confirmed. You're a loser, Yes, like you're
a loser. I.
Mean a lot of people who spend alot of time on the Internet are

(50:08):
losers. Yeah, you know, that's a.
It is what it is, a. Valid point.
Her name is Maniel Perez and that's the rumor to be playing a
part even if she's not or is doesn't matter.
Like why are people harassing? What is the harassed about?
I mean, we'll find out when she's on the podcast next week.
She's not on the podcast. Put her on social media.

(50:28):
She's not on the podcast. It's crazy how how media is.
It Gordo. What's up Gordo?
What are you saying? I was just saying it's crazy.
How social media has become sucha.
Vile but yet useful tool. A toxic freaking vile.
Because it's diarrhea soup. Because from what I understand
sometimes like when people are getting casted for parts like.
They'll contact. They'll no, they'll use their

(50:50):
social media to be like, oh, they got more files, so we're
probably going to cast them, youknow?
Of course, of course. It's a popularity contest, yeah.
It's all about marketing. Yeah, that's why you gotta have
it. That Black Mirror episode man's
coming more and more true by theday.
It's all about the likes. Yeah, but yeah, it sucks.
It sucks but I don't even understand what they're mad
about. Yeah.

(51:11):
You know. What?
What is that to be mad about? I got to get some more actors
and actresses from video games on this podcast.
I got to go contact some. That's what I'm going to do.
Yeah. And.
I want this side of the story. Yeah, I want to hear what they
go through because I'm very curious.
But I would understand shutting it down.
Shut it down? Yeah.
Like you know today at the Post on Twitter or X.
What you could do is turn off the comments.

(51:31):
That's it. Yeah, but then people no there
doesn't want comments. Yeah, I'm gonna find your
e-mail. I'm gonna find this.
I'm gonna find your home with docs, you shit.
Yeah. There's too much information
known about these people and andeasy to get.
Damn, the less they know, the less the public knows, the
better. Never underestimate the
patheticness of people from online.
Like really pathetic. They will dox you, they will

(51:55):
find you. Like they're really pathetic.
Yeah, Paul makes a good point. Remember Phantom Menace and they
harassed Jake Wood while he was a 10 year old just trying to?
Yeah, no, because people are pieces of shit.
Like people. There's no.
Age limit. There's no age limit to this
bullying. Yeah, you're right.
That's what I said, when people post online they should have
their known identity. It's now the time that you can't

(52:16):
hide behind a computer. Yep.
I don't care what they say aboutoh you shouldn't have your real
name on everything. No, that these these people.
Yep, I need. You should.
Now, because you ain't going to say that to much.
You ain't going to say that. What I'm saying it should be
consequences for or actually posting the bullshit.
But if it was like a driver's license or you have to go
exactly for real, that would be.Interesting verification.

(52:36):
Verification should be for everyone.
Oh yeah, you. Shouldn't be able to post if
you're not verified under a reallicense.
Because you don't want that smoke in real life and.
If you don't got a license, you're too young to be on it.
Yeah, like, come on. This is this should have changed
a long time ago. But don't we go.
But your protection. Your protection.
Stop being a bitch. Stop it.
Stop being that person online you're worried about.

(52:57):
You worry about the people you're harassing.
I think the crazy, I think. Stop harassing.
I think the craziest thing aboutsocial media, not to keep going
on this, but is that like peoplecare so much about your opinion.
Like if I like if I like Sony and you like Nintendo, but you,
you don't own a Sony system. Yeah, but you like Nintendo.

(53:17):
You hate on me and the games that I play because it's Sony.
Yeah, but why not like both? Like, like, if I like both, is
that a. That's not good.
That's not good. That's not good.
It's like a Giants fan liking the Cowboys, you know?
It's just like, it doesn't make fucking sense.
I'm. I'm entitled to enjoy whatever I
want to enjoy. No.
You're. Not it's like so mass.
You know, mass produced in the building but.

(53:39):
Take Superman for example, like.Superman you can.
It's not perfect, for example. You can.
You can like Henry Cavill and you can like David Cornswit, you
know what I mean? Like you can like them both.
And Chris, or Reeves and Brandon, Ruth, whatever, whoever
the fuck you want to like. And Dean Cain.
You could like whoever you want,except for Dean Cain.
I'm joking. I'm joking.
I'm. Joking.

(53:59):
I mean, you got to play. You know, that's going to be on
the Patreon. We're going to talk about all
Batman movies and all Superman movies and give our opinions.
That's that's going to be. A Spider Man movie soon.
Yeah, we can do that too. Yeah.
There's been enough of them. I'm sure there's a lot of them,
yeah. There's been enough actors to go
through and. See.
Yeah, yeah. And compare.
I think that'd be pretty fun. There you go.

(54:20):
But let's go the next. One on to the next one before I
get angry. Oh well.
This is fun. Kid looks a wild in Fatal Fury.
City of Wolves gameplay revealed.
Oh yeah, yeah. Oh yeah.
He. Looks like he's looks more.
And more likely. No, it sounded like you said
that. Dude, that's the craziest part.
He looks dope. Yeah, he looks like a bad ass.

(54:42):
His beard's a little weird, though.
His beard's weird beard's. Weird you don't like his beard.
Complain is his hair is too short or shorter and his beard
not his beard moment. You know, I think it's fine for
this world. Yeah, Yeah.
I mean, I like. If that was in Street Fighter,
I'd be like, that's kind of thatdesign that I'm not really cool
with. I think in this world it works.
No, it's just, it's just it's a super NIT picky thing.

(55:02):
Yeah, well, like, it's unacceptable.
I don't care. Your opinion's not valid.
Yeah, he. Looks like he looks like the
Indian dude in Street Fighter 6.Rasheed.
Yes, that's what he looks like. Which is funny, because that's
Ken. But yeah, like, it's just super
nitpicking. Yeah, he's got.
Moves, yeah, now the combos are.Crazy.
That's fucking oh oh, he bouncedweird right there.

(55:25):
What the fuck is? That his beard's weird.
I do like the they have a different costume.
That's kind of show. I do like the fact they're doing
crossovers more and that's pretty fun.
They should just do a another flat out Capcom versus SNK.
I mean, they're working towards it.
Yeah. And wait, they showed his other
suit right there. The red suit.
There you go. Yeah, his original Old School 1

(55:45):
looks perfect. That looks perfect.
That's clean, that's clean, that's perfect.
I like that. I like the white outline one
from the Super. The Super that's clean.
Well, you all know that the original, original, the original
Fate of Fury was like the actualStreet Fighter too, right?
Really. Yeah.
By the creators who did Street Fighter One, they moved over to

(56:06):
SNK and they made, they made that the same year the Street
Fighter 2 came out. So it was literally no copy.
And they were just making their own version of Street Fighter.
Wow. I mean, Street Fighter 2 is much
better, but that was like, therewas like there was a crossover
between their worlds in real life.
They're that close. That's so seeing them in there
isn't like, shocking. Yeah, how does Terry, Andy and

(56:28):
Ken look the same? I mean, it's anime well.
I I mean, I don't want to say it, but.
They just changed the hair. No, that's draggable.
It could be because they're Caucasian.
Well. I mean possibly.
Is it the comment or is it the voice?
I don't know. You tell me.

(56:50):
You tell me. Wow.
What's cool? About this crossover though is
that they actually they did it in Street Fighter 6, but Terry
and my hell yeah. And now they did it with Chumley
and Kim in their game, so that'spretty dumb.
So damn cool. Now I think they should be
working on since they can't do freaking Marvel versus Capcom,
they should definitely be doing an SNK versus Capcom.

(57:12):
Why not? Yeah, until they get that Marvel
license back, you know what I'm saying?
But Jesus, I mean, they can let Arxis hold on to that for a
little while, you know what I'm saying?
Dog You. Know he's a cock Asian.
Yes. That's Rio.
Rio's not in the game. Rio is definitely that.
Nobody knew he was like not Asian.
He doesn't look Asian. Yo this is hitting me.

(57:34):
Yeah, sure, it's hitting me but but yes, they said that fade up
her with a copy and no it wasn't.
Dude, the sorrow's here man. You got to drink more.
You got to go to the data E for that copy, right?
What's that game power instinct This.
That was a copy of St. Power instinct that sounds power
instinct that sounds early 90s as fuck.

(57:55):
They went to court for that and they lost, he said.
Yeah, they didn't copy. It was very close.
Terrible. Sorry to.
Cock. Pivot to cock.
No man, no man, we're going to pivot to the next news.
Pivot to the next news. Let's go.
So this was today, right? Yes, today.

(58:15):
Nintendo confirms actors set to play Link in Zelda in a live
action Legend of Zelda film. How does Turbo feel about this?
Because I I know Turbo's. A oh, Turbo was live right now.
Yeah, yeah. It's like right here.
There's a close up of the. Was it fighters history?
Oh shit it was power. It was firefighters history not
powers thing. Same shit.

(58:37):
They all got me Street Fighter. All right, so I'm going to give
my opinion based off of just these pictures, just these
pictures because this is not from the movie, obviously.
So what do you think about the? I think, I think since I don't
know who these people are, I think that's a good thing.
I think that's a good thing. I think the girl can play Zelda.
I think that could be fine. I like the way she looks.

(58:57):
I think that could be fine. I don't know how she is as an
actress, so I can't like, Oh no,she's going to be terrible.
Which is good. Yeah, yes, I have no idea,
especially it's too early. You don't want to complain
online and docs people and theirfamily and dude, I'm typing
something toxic right now. As far as link is concerned, I

(59:19):
don't know like just from that picture, I don't know.
I don't fucking know how he's going to do what's the what
what's the makeup they're going to do?
What's the hair going to do Hairgoing to grow.
How is he looking costume? How does his voice sound?
Is he going to speak? I think it's just go like I
think it's too it's too early. It's too early to reserve
judgement. It's like I'm going to wait for,

(59:41):
I say I will give a positive that I don't know who they are.
That's a positive to me. I agree, too, because if they're
good, they can grow with the series.
Yeah, and that's Link. That is Zelda that could be
really big, rather than just some Hollywood actor that's paid
millions of dollars that probably shits all over the role

(01:00:01):
and then ruins the entire franchise for years to come.
You don't Wait. You didn't want Tom Holland to
play Link? You know they probably would.
They probably would. Well, if he was younger,
definitely would have. No, I don't want no Tom Holland
Savage. Hollywood would definitely No,
they would. But I have no problem with the
the two people I just saw. I mean, that's, that's, that's
fine, whatever I mean. Looks like they're going for
young also. Yeah, I mean, you got to grow

(01:00:23):
with the series, so if you're going to start with the original
Zelda and you want a Zelda 2-3 in.
Multiple films. Original Zelda was like a little
kid though, right? I don't know if he was a little
kid, but he was definitely whatever age that guy, that kid,
that actor looks like, that's probably Benjamin Evan.
Benjamin Evan. That's the name of the kid.
And they were from other things,right?
Yeah, and Bo Bragson, Braggersonthe female's Bo Bo.

(01:00:46):
Yo, what up Bo Bo? Braggesson's 21 and what is the
other dude? Oh. 16 that's is that right?
Ben he probably is younger than her, right?
Probably. But on on film, it's, it's, you
know, no, I mean like. Yeah, he's 16.
As long as they can pull it off on film, that's all.
I think that's fine. I think that's.

(01:01:07):
Fine, it's illegal. No, you know Link is a simp.
He doesn't get anything from Zelda.
Same thing with Mario. Nintendo promotes Sims, they get
no action but they do all the saving.
We know this already, so it's fine.
Two years it's. Fine, it's fine.
Remember they have, they had a million games and they ain't got
no damn kids. He's simping forever, but damn.

(01:01:30):
Same. Lincoln, excuse me, talks like
that. A simp.
But you can say I can't. Yeah, I can't wait to see a
teaser trailer or something. I, I, I hope it's good, I think.
Hope they're going to do it the right way.
Live action, I'm fucking nervousabout it.
It's one of those things where you know that the the director
has a vision and we just got to wait to see what it is.
Man. In the in the trailer.

(01:01:50):
What are you talking about? Dude kept you talking about the
other the other Zelda that they said was going to be Zelda.
What did he say that that was? The other Zelda was a trans
woman and everyone and she looked like Zelda but she is not
cast as the current. Are you talking about Hunter
Schaefer? I don't know names,
motherfucker. The person from Euphoria.
Yeah, that's Hunter Schaefer. Yeah, the the, the that was
never. The picture they had looked like

(01:02:13):
Zelda from like Twilight Princess, but they're like, oh,
that's a, that's a trans woman. That was never.
But she's not. She was never cast.
She was never cast. And the Internet took that and
was like, yeah, they rolled withit.
Yeah, they rolled with it, but this is someone else that was
actually cast. What's up, Zonzon?
What up but we're? Going by the actual actors here
who are playing the part. I could see the link somewhere I

(01:02:38):
can I could see link. Tell from the pictures they
show, which is always the thing.That's always the thing.
When and The funny thing is and they use the best possible
pictures too, because that's very Zelda ish, you know, but
like. Green in the background.
Yeah, yeah. It's not like they're in a city.
I could see Zelda, definitely. I could definitely see Zelda,
yeah. What if they're Lake in Zelda
but they get transported to Earth?

(01:02:58):
I would shut that shit off in seconds.
That's. The.
Master of the Universe. Yes.
Yeah, I would shut that shit offin seconds.
They just got to cast me as Ganondorfin.
It would be fine. It's always listen, it's always
hard to tell what these characters going to look like
based on their casting picture, but it's never the same.
They always look completely different by the time they

(01:03:18):
actually at the. Park, but we all know the hate
train has already started. Oh yeah, that's going to get the
clicks. Listen, the rage bait.
Negativity, negativity. It's all about negativity.
You know, all rage bait. So what do you think?
What do you think? Really.
Wow. Yeah, for the short listen,
there's no hate here. Yeah, this is the right.
One says the hater of yo says the says the God of hate.

(01:03:43):
This article. This article.
This is there is no hate. This is the God of hate, the God
of hate, waiting like a poster on the Lord.
The God of hate. The sticks and a cloak, yo.
Wait and see moment we got to wait and see how this turns out.
I'm not sure what they're going to do with a live action Zelda,
and it's always a big if if that's going to actually work

(01:04:04):
he. Said Batista as Gannon.
First of all, that real quick, First of all, bizarre.
I mean, he's slightly more famous than me, Chuck.
Can he? You're the mid.
Boss Chuck, Yeah, you got to be a mid.
Boss. What was the mid boss?
Since Elder Turbo knows what I'msaying, you got to be a mid.
Boss I mean Gannon maybe not Gannon dorf though.
Get in from the get in, get in from the first from the first

(01:04:25):

We didn't roast the cat. The actors though.
No, no, they're fine. They're fine, right?
Right now they're fine. I think it's going to be fun.
I got to use the bathroom, but yeah I think I also agree.
I think it would be fine as. Long as like is a Michael B
Jordan. All right, man.

(01:05:12):
Well, that's what Hollywood would do.
He could be Ganondorf. Possibly.
Nah, Nah. He's not open, right?

fucking the horror games, man. You ain't tough.
Yeah, we gotta get to that. We gotta get to the main topic,
so we gotta do these shots. Yeah, sorry.

(01:09:07):
Horror games. You ain't tough.
Play a horror game. I'm a beat.
Come talk to me. I'm sorry I'm cut off after
this, man. I'm.
Oh shit. Oh yes, sorrow.
An animated Zelda would have been the way to go.
Like, no complaints. That's I mean, that's that would
be amazing. That's a safe bet though man
don't have. Fantasy.
I mean, obviously we've all seenLord of the Rings.

(01:09:28):
You could do fantasy in real life.
Yeah. But Willow.
Yeah. And Willow.
But if you could pull it off, great.
Yeah. Imagine that, but as a cartoon.
It would be like, yeah, I'm all for that.
Oh yeah, that'd be pretty easy. Yeah, send them to the evil jar
all day. The stupidest guy, your policy
said Scared of platformers? I'm not.
Scared of platformers? I get annoyed by platformers.

(01:09:49):
Yo-yo yo, so much shit. By platformers.
That's amazing. That's cool.
Taken out by a platformer. Yeah, whatever.
Y'all All right, This one. This is the main topic,
everybody. Yeah, yeah.
What are Indies doing right thatbig studios aren't?
Yes, it's the big question. A lot of bad news from, you

(01:10:13):
know, certain video game companies.
And they're big, big, big titles.
And they're big budgets. Yes, which is what AAA usually
refers to as big budget title orflagship title.
You know what I have to look up why they call it AAA and not not
like blockbuster. I'm like, why don't they call it
a blockbuster? They used to, but it's easier to

(01:10:34):
write and type, say. Well, the reason why was because
it's a, it's a credit score. They, they used it over credit
because if you say blockbuster, that means it's successful.
Not every AAA game is successful.
Really not. It's pretty much basically the
amount of money that that's put towards the game, yeah.
It's still a weird way to. I know, it's still weird dude.

(01:10:56):
Does it understand? Why they want to put these in
little categories? Yeah, but I mean, come on, not
every AAA game is the best game of all time.
Yeah, AAA is basically just for investors.
It's a term that they use in theindustry and then it just caught
on. So why are they failing?
Yeah, that's a big question. Right now and what Indies are
doing better. So yeah, with Xbox and

(01:11:16):
PlayStation right now, a lot of the AAA titles are not coming
out or not doing as well as they'd like or not being talked
about at all. Regardless of budget, regardless
of commercials they get for it, regardless of promotion.
Something is very wrong. And I think that the way the

(01:11:38):
industry is steering towards stockholders is really like the
worst thing. And I was thinking like, I don't
even like reading most of the news now for video games because
it's all about stockholders. And I'm like, I don't hold stock
in these companies. I don't care what your sales are
this week. Like it doesn't interest me.
And they're like, oh, it did this in the first day.

(01:11:59):
I'm like, so all right, that's great.
But what impact does that do forme?
How is the game? What is this game we're talking
about? It's almost like they're trying
to turn like a lot of AAA open world games.
They're trying to make movies, you know, it's and everything.
Has been a case since PlayStation.
Yes, but for a long time they'vebeen let's try and make a movie.
Let's try to beat the the last the prequel.
Let's try to beat, you know, let's let's and for the most

(01:12:20):
part, like the Last of Us games,right?
They, they're beautiful, they'reawesome.
It's like you're playing a A. Fucking movie, Yeah.
And that's that's that's awesome.
Horizon, you know, you're playing a this giant, massive
new world, you know, where you're having conversations with
different characters. And I get it, I get it.
But like, and that's a great, that's a great game.
That is that is a great. I'm not shitting on.
And the gameplay is there. Yeah, but it's like.

(01:12:42):
People like that. That's the whole game.
But it's like that's, that's a lot of fucking time.
That's a lot of time that peoplehave to spend to get that full
experience. Same thing with God of War.
It's like that's why a lot of and I know Joel will be like
Yep, that's me too from media glitch.
Shout out to Joel is that they prefer the older stuff because
it's. More of a game.
It's more of a game, quick gameplay right there in your

(01:13:04):
face, beat the game done. And a lot of indie games capture
the essence of what games were originally.
You know, you play for the gameplay you play for.
You know that fast adrenaline rush, and then you're done with
it. It's not going to take you 60 to
70 to 80 hours. And I love Red Dead Redemption
too, but every mission is 1% of the fucking game.

(01:13:26):
That's fucking crazy, man. That's insane.
A lot of these games, a lot of Triple E games, are trying to
blend gaming with the cinematic outlook.
Yeah, like the best way possible.
And it's still cool. I'm not like I'm not shitting on
that by any means. AAA is doing that, Yeah, now,
yeah. And that's usually how you
determine a AA from a AAA, how much gameplay is in it, which is

(01:13:49):
crazy. I feel like the indie games
capture like the golden age of gaming.
Yeah. Like gameplay mechanics.
Gameplay mechanics easily and just easily.
Overall fun. Like yeah, take for example.
Hit start. Have fun.
Yeah, exactly. And that's the thing, like the
like the like the indie games, they don't take 3 hours to

(01:14:10):
install onto your. Or to start, yeah, but do you to
start and walk around? Level though.
Do you like the tutorial? Though like, you know, you know
how many times I would start oneof these games, whether if it's
an Assassin's Creed Horizon, whatever, you know how long it
takes to start moving. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It takes a long like at least 1/2 hour.
If you if you have an hour and ahalf before you have to go to
work, you're spending that half an hour to start like the just

(01:14:33):
start doing stuff and then just.To start 1/2 an hour to.
Install the game. No, this is following the game
after installing. Like, like, like to actually
like. And then like you're when you
start, you're either talking to somebody and you're, there's no
action until maybe that first hour is up and then you have to
go to work. Dude, if they could somehow fit
the tutorial and while the game is loading would be the perfect

(01:14:53):
way the perfect way to do it. I mean some studios do the
tutorial like they blend it in the game like.
Well, yeah, yeah, yeah. Seamlessly where you don't even
notice. There's a tutorial all right.
Turbo as well. And he said, Indies care about
the meat, not the buns, lettuce or pickle.
What? I don't even know what that
means. I don't even know what that
means. He just said that because he
knew you were going to read it out.

(01:15:14):
Lisa, thank you for joining the the Patreon man.
I appreciate you. I always.
Appreciate you. Thank you, Sir.
Thank you. Appreciate you brother.
Yeah, I think. And I think yeah, like games
like Shredders, Revenge, St., Streets of Rage 4.
Jump right in. Boom, you.
Jump right in. If you got that hour and a half,
you're going to have a fun time playing the game and you're
going to get a chunk of experience in action and fun,

(01:15:36):
yeah, you know what I mean? And with AAA games like an hour
and a half into the game, you'rejust barely scratching the
surface. Even with indie games, even with
indie games that have like a very, I heard that provolone,
provolone cheese, Swiss. Even indie games that have a big

(01:15:59):
story narrative like a deaths gambit, right?
Or like a Prince of Persia. You know, gameplay starts fast.
I play Prince of Persia 1st 2 fucking minutes, I'm in action,
there's shit going on, Death Stranding main character fucking
blows up and dies. And then the story starts and
you start playing immediately. Yeah.
And the story develops as you continue what you like rather

(01:16:19):
than huh. Deaths gambit.
Deaths Gambit, Yeah. I thought you said stranding.
Oh, my bad. Death Gambit probably probably
said that. I told you now this is strong.
No, that's that's Gambit. Yeah, that's Gambit does that
very well. You know, it it takes you into
this this whole world and you'reyou're learning as you continue
to play the game, which is awesome.
You know, you and it by the end,you're blown away by the amount

(01:16:41):
of story that you thought wasn'tthere.
That's actually there. You don't need a a whole.
I mean fucking Metal Gear Solid was notorious for this shit.
Well, they probably don't have aboardroom also that's trying to
nickel and dime you. Yeah, constantly.
Rather than not getting the gameplay right, they're trying
to think of ways to get you to buy an outfit.
Yeah. It's like, come on, man.
Like they're just looking at thestocks, man.

(01:17:02):
Yeah. But what Turbo was talking
about, I could tell I'm they're thinking about the meat and not
the Pickles. And you know, Turbo's.
Always thinking about. The meat all the time.
Oh man. Damn.
But I could tell what he was talking about was like
graphically AAA games. Think of the way it looks more
so than the game at some point. Some games they're trying to

(01:17:24):
make it look the prettiest. They're trying to spend the most
money to try and get some look the most realistic and they're
not put into consideration. Is this actually fun?
It's great to look at some games.
I'm not saying all games, but some games really focus on that.
But a but a budget game would focus on an art style.
They wouldn't focus on real lifelike picture photorealistic

(01:17:45):
looks. They would focus on their art
style but integrate that into their game.
That's why they can still do it at that level.
They don't need hundreds of millions of dollars to make that
game look like an artist. They don't need it.
You don't need it. Look at what's the game you
play. Claire.
Claire Obscure. Yeah.
Exposition 33. You don't.
You don't need that. You don't need.
Obviously they did have a budget, but not a AAA budget.

(01:18:08):
Well, that's another thing too. A lot of AAA budgets have a team
of like 300 people and they believe freaking 400 people.
Years. Yeah.
Takes too long to develop. And then when the studio closed
down, that's all those jobs. It's all gone.
And look at the game that I played for.
Spoken. Beautiful game, huge narrative,

(01:18:30):
voice acting was great, tanked hard AAA game.
Well, you can't invest, you can't do anything new.
That's the problem with doing AAA.
It wasn't even like the gameplaywas not like I, I didn't.
Feel like you enjoyed the game like.
New. You enjoyed it though.
I I I personally enjoyed. It yeah, so.
But who's going to invest? Speaking of investors, who's

(01:18:51):
going to invest hundreds of millions of dollars into
something that's not proven already?
Like if it's not proven already,it's not a sequel.
It's not something that, oh, this is a spin off of the exact
same thing that made hundreds ofmillions of dollars already,
right? No one is going to invest that
into a new property that can flop the second day it comes
out. That's why you're seeing a lot
of these, like remakes, reboots.A lot of this stuff is proven

(01:19:11):
already, yeah, and it's already come out before, so that's a
safe bet. Oh, but in any time you throw
in. Yeah, they take the the
experiment. 1,000,000 bucks, right?
And you can do whatever you wantwith that and oh, it's crazy.
And then you can come out with that.
And on top of that, like the thethe price points of indie games
are much more appealing than theprice points of these triple E
games. Yeah, sometimes, most times.

(01:19:34):
For the most part, yeah. Take a look at like, like games
like seafood, right? Seafood.
Like that's, that's all gameplay.
Yeah, that is all gameplay. First and foremost, yeah.
And there's something. And The funny thing is, after I
beat that game, I had this feeling.
I said there's a part of me thatwants to own this because it
just feels great. It's a polished work of art when

(01:19:54):
you in your head. When you play a game that's
polished to the gameplay, think of Symphony in the Night, right
where the things that you pull off.
That are just so polished and soclean.
Streets of Rage 4, same shit. The hits feel great, Everything
is done very well. You want to have that.
Because. But see who's not
photorealistic? But it's like stylized, it's

(01:20:15):
exactly, that's when you're like, you know that whatever
they were, whatever that companydid, they, they, that vision,
they care. They did it.
They, they, they did it. And it's a work of art.
And that's how that you got to approach it.
That's how you got to treat it. It's a work of art.
See Who is a work of art? Could they have had better
voice? I just sure.
Sure, absolutely. You could always have better

(01:20:36):
voice. But that doesn't have to do with
the gameplay. No, that's the point.
Yeah. Those things to me are just
like, you know, I mean, SymphonyKnight has terrible voice
acting. Resident Evil One has God awful.
And I'm not what do. You mean you don't want to?
Like. I'm not condemning AAA titles, I
love what they do. Same, same, same they.
Pull it off and it does well. But it's not necessary to go

(01:20:56):
like buck ass crazy with spending all this shit if you
want to just to get a good game.Every Hollywood actor in the
world to play your character. I mean that's that's where the
expenses are going. Yes, I don't want to hear
complaints if it flops because you didn't have to pay that
dude, right? Don't act like there's no one
else in the world that's talented to do that.
You didn't need Denzel Washington to do mocap, but

(01:21:17):
yeah, like. But it's more about marketing at
that point though and what Disney did.
Yeah, that's exactly what it. Is they're like this person does
this voice, Yeah. So then.
Don't you want to play it because we got celebrity voice
actors? No, that doesn't make me want to
play a fucking game. But I mean, they do go on tour,
they go on these shows and they talk about their game, so I
understand why they want the promotion.
But however, to kind of give youknow, that, you know, perfect

(01:21:37):
example of it working is obviously the Batman series.
You know you had Mark Hamill playing Joker.
And Kevin Conroy. And Kevin Conroy playing Batman
and you kind of jump into the action.
That's how you do it. Perfect.
Because they rode the coattails of the animated series that
people know and. Yes, exactly.
And they did that the right way,Spiderman, the right fucking

(01:22:00):
way. That's that's what, that's what
I fuck with. You know, Star Wars, Jedi Fallen
Order and beautiful, beautiful. No microtransactions.
No, none of that shit goes to Sushima straight game.
That actually perfectly blended that cinematic look that they
wanted with the with the gameplay that.
Action was right there, gameplaywas right there.
Perfect. No, the gameplay was one of the

(01:22:22):
best, best games I've played, period.
Let's it's incredible. So they didn't slack off on
that. Thank God.
The problem with AAA though is then titles like Final Fantasy
come out. They spend super huge budgets,
they expect it to do tons and tons, 10s of 1,000,020 million,
30 million. And when it doesn't do quite

(01:22:43):
that well, it's considered a failure, regardless of how much
money you spend on it and how much money it made.
And that's fucked. Up like the the like how much
they expect is way too much. Yeah.
No, no, that's, it's, that's, I agree with that 1000% because
it, and it's, it's unfortunate too, because we talk about this
a lot when it comes to Final Fantasy.
And I always say I'm fucking jealous of you 'cause you got

(01:23:03):
your, you got your role-playing game remade and you got all
these the bells and whistles andeverything looks great and this,
but you have to wait like 10 plus years.
I don't want to wait 10 plus years for Shining Force 3 to be
remade. If they said we're going to make
it look like Valkyria ChroniclesDone, done, done.
I won't argue. I don't care.
I don't want it to look like Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
I don't want it to look that polished and beautiful.

(01:23:25):
I don't need. It but they don't have to push
that far. Yeah, you don't have to do that
to get a beautiful looking game.You don't have to do that.
Like something is broken there. Yeah, that's a lot of money they
spend on it. Is this.
It's not that's. Crazy because if I could like
start seeing the stitches and clouds shirt like it's like bro.
That's dope, but it's not necessary.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you need to see the stitches

(01:23:47):
in the. Shirt and this and the and the
sidebar real quick. You putting up that Batman
footage dude, I want to play it tomorrow like like I'm not like
I'm like stop the other two games and just start the whole
series. I've been dying to play Batman
over. It's been hurting my soul, dude.
It's just Oh my. God got to wait another seven
years. Ago exactly I got it that's
exactly what it is I got to waitwe got to invent something so
you could play in your sleep andyour tongue Jesus Christ.

(01:24:08):
I'd never leave my house though I.
Mean then you won't you won't berested but.
Not now. You get your rest, but you still
play the game sensation. You're dreaming, but you're
playing. A lot of people get mad at these
new releases, saying that they don't look much different than
their other titles like the Ghost of Sathima and the the new
one. Ghost of Viote.
Yeah, they're saying, oh, what'sthe difference?

(01:24:29):
Looks like the same game. See, that's a dumb comment.
I'm like, what do you mean that's?
A stupid comment because it's like they were there a different
game completely. So you want realistic to look
more realistic? Expect leaps and bounds of
something different. But The thing is when we were
coming up on games, not to say we reminisce so much better, but
when we were coming up on games,they had multiple titles like

(01:24:50):
during a generation of a system.So you would get like a Mega Man
1A, Mega Man 2A, Mega Man 3A, Mega Man 4.
When those games came out, we didn't say this looks like the
same. It looks like the same game.
No, they, they, they like to take what they had and make it
better, Polish what they didn't get to put in the game, add new
things in the gameplay. We're talking about gameplay,

(01:25:10):
not the look of. It they're small minded, that's
why, because they look at it. Oh, it still looks.
Oh, you mean it looks beautiful?Yeah, it looks beautiful.
The best looking games ever. Made Ghosta Sashima is gorgeous.
So you would want the sequel to look just like Ghosta Sashima?
The first one this is based on New character, new story, new
gameplay, new things you can do.You didn't play it yet.
Shut the fuck up, shit, shut thefuck up.
And they don't have. They don't play the game to

(01:25:32):
begin with. The people are hating on this
stuff. Don't play the game to begin
with. They don't know a difference
because they didn't play a difference.
Yeah, they, they just in their bombs, basement chilling.
That's all they doing. But it takes too long.
I'm saying it's taking too long for these games to come out.
So every 10 years I'm like, oh, it's going to definitely look
different because it took 10 years to come out.
Remember, remember, we've had this conversation before.

(01:25:53):
I'm like, we're getting to the point of where it's, we were
like we have to really look to see the difference in terms of
graphics because it looks real. It looks like us, right?
So it's like it's, and if peoplearen't impressed, you want
something to look more realisticthan a human being.
Like, have you, have you seen that yet?
I haven't. I haven't.
I mean, but it doesn't make me want to play more.

(01:26:13):
No. Like Deaf Stranding, too.
They look damn near real. Yeah, I've seen a I've seen a
trailer. So they look like real.
Yeah. And it hasn't made me say I'm
going to buy that when it comes out at all.
Yeah, but like, let's. Say it doesn't have any power of
making me buy it. Let's go back to the Ninja
Turtle arcade games back in the day.
They were like yo this looks so cool.
I mean they look like real turtles.
They look like real turtles, but.

(01:26:35):
But you take Shredders Revenge, which is essentially an upgrade
to those two games. Yeah, it visually doesn't look
much, much better than those than those games they're.
Just more rounded. It's more polished.
It's just so, yeah. Just more polished.
Just slightly more polished, butthe gameplay is there.
But the fine thing. And it's enhanced because they
add two more players, so you have 6 players instead of four.
It's insane. And, and no one has ever brought

(01:26:57):
up the, the, the love for the, the, the Turtles arcade and this
as Oh my God, the graphics are amazing.
No one ever brings up the graphics because they're not
really important. And no one said more of the same
thing. Boom.
Yeah, exactly. Exactly.
If you like what that was, say that game guy like in the 90s
for ratings. They give you more of that.
What are you mad about? Oh, and by the way, I played

(01:27:17):
this the other day, dude, I'm not playing survival mode by
myself ever again. I got waxed.
The fucking. The computer's relentless.
Yeah, man, I was like, dude, I'mthat must be terrible or they're
just fucking really psychotic. That back on the channel again.
For real, 'cause I need revenge.I need some friends with me
Shredders. Revenge, Turtles.
Revenge. Turtles revenge because I just

(01:27:38):
got smoked. Shredders Revenge.
People did. People did get crazy about tears
at the Kingdom also saying that it was an update, but they did.
It was a. $75 update. And people want to get mad, be
mad over that fucking the Final Fantasy Tactics, the new one,
the the, the mad, the the remaster, whatever.
Be mad over that, be mad over that.
I'm mad about that. I would be pissed over that.

(01:27:59):
That's that's a RIP off. That was just it looks like a
port. It's a port.
It looks like a port. It's bullshit.
And yes, there were 20 versions of Street Fighter Two.
Listen, that was when they were doing updates with cartridges,
yeah. Yeah, that that there was no way
to to have DLC that was releasedanother game.
That was their original season pass.
And another thing about the AAA games, they don't release entire

(01:28:21):
games. They're always DLC.
They're like, oh, there we go, buy this game and the season
pass and then you'll have a whole game. 150 bucks.
But the problem is that that thescope of the game is too big
the. Video Scope the video.
No, no, the scope of the game, it's too video.
Score and but not to say that that that the indie games don't

(01:28:42):
release DLC as well but. An indie title is smaller and
the scope isn't as large. They can actually fit what they
really want into the game. They try to get that.
They want that money, money backfrom the AAA games.
That's what they're trying to do.
Yeah, they because they spend somuch.
That's why you shouldn't spend so much, because it's not
needed. They don't have.
To you don't have to RIP off your consumers with with extra
DLC. Why don't you release a full

(01:29:03):
fucking game and they will love it and they'll buy it, but don't
put so much money into making it.
You don't have to do that. You don't.
Listen, instead of spending so much money and requiring people
to buy your game and having 20 million in sales, 60 million in
sales in order to make a profit,how about you put less money
into the game and more love and then less sales would be needed.

(01:29:26):
Less people too. I'm.
Saying if you make 10 million insales on something that didn't
cost you nearly as much as what you've actually paid on it,
that's going to even out the same as if you wasted that much
money to try and get your profit.
Because if you don't hit that, you're going to lose all that
money. Yeah.
So what's the purpose? Pour that money into gameplay.
Imagine like Speaking of what's the the first person the

(01:29:47):
Concorde game. So the amount of money that Sony
wasted on that title to cancel? It 400 million.
Rumored to be but yes, but to spend that amount of money like
everything that your God award did to be successful, all of
that money is gone. Like what's the purpose?
You just made God of War but no profit basically.

(01:30:08):
I'm not sure I probably made more than that, but a huge chunk
of the the actual money that yougot from these titles that you
thought was successful, you justlost for nothing.
It's dumb. It's stupid decisions.
Very, very stupid decisions. They were tone deaf also.
I'm saying they're not going to be able to make these games
anymore. That's the problem with your
blade. They're not going to be able to
sustain this. Tone them down.
Also this big thing with the AAAgames, like they're tone deaf

(01:30:32):
when it comes to the the audience.
Like the the the the gamers. Maybe they don't listen to any
takes. Too long.
They could have been, I'm saying.
By the time the game is ready tobe released.
They do it more so for like I, for example, was it a record of
Lotus War and Wonder Labyrinth? I got the early access of that
game, right. They have on Steam, they have

(01:30:55):
the thing where you could like amessage board for the fans of
the game. And it's all people, all fans of
the game putting all the stuff that they would like to see.
And then they added it to the game because they listen to the
fans fanfare. But they don't really do that
with AAA games. Is that what you're you're just
going to wait for it because you're going to buy a monkey?
Yeah, exactly. They don't really do.

(01:31:15):
That dance monkey. Yeah, the message board is not
going to give them the solid solution that they need to make
money. Well, I'm saying like for them,
well, it will make money if the game is good, but you know, it's
crazy. No, I get it.
You know, there's people out there who are who are, you know,
do fan games, you know, who are more talented than and get and
get the job done with less resources, no money with no

(01:31:37):
money, no money. So it's like, why did this
happen? And you guys are failing so much
with millions of dollars thrown in there.
Like someone needs to step back and be like you don't know what
the fuck you're doing at the endof the day for planning.
Their planning is awful. It's whoever's in charge is an
idiot. Whoever's in charge of doing the
planning for Xbox releases needsto be gone, needs to be gone.

(01:31:58):
What do you mean Halo launched perfectly?
Incomplete. I don't know if they're gone
already. I don't know how many times
they've been replaced. Yeah, but whoever they have
doing those decisions needs to be somewhat different.
Listen, gamers aren't, they're not the, the, the, the hardest
people to please, you know, like, it's, if you're a Mario
fan, it's you're kind of have anidea of what a Mario fan's gonna
like. You know, if you're a Final

(01:32:19):
Fantasy fan, you're pretty sure what type of game you have to
make to make those Final Fantasyfans happy, right?
You know, if you're in forums or, you know, this, this and
that. Oh, I would like to see this.
I'd like to see that. Take a peek.
OK, We haven't done this yet. Do that, you know, But if you're
tone deaf and if you just look at numbers and you're looking at
money, that's a fucking problem.You're going to kill the game,

(01:32:39):
you're going to kill the magic. And when it comes out, they're
going to pick it apart because it's not going to be what it's
supposed to be. Perfect example was Shadow of
War, when it first dropped. Yeah, when it first dropped,
littered with microtransactions,littered with a whole bunch of
I'm like, this wasn't in the first game.
Same. With Star Wars Battlefront 2.
Yeah, it wasn't in the first game, but but, but after the

(01:33:00):
sales went down, you know your wallet, you know money is.
What you want? Yeah, they freaking reversed it.
Then a 180 got rid of it. But they did.
What they had. Excellent game.
They did what they had to. After I think it was like 4
months of like low sales they they were.
Just lucky there's updates because now if you make a
horrible decision like that you may be able to get yourself out
of it if they give you a chance.Nowadays.
If that happened again you wouldhave cancelled that game.

(01:33:23):
They are not. They would not.
Yeah, nowadays everything gets cancelled rather than fixed.
They. Wouldn't have given them well.
They they cancel shit now there is a game.
What was it? And they still call out EA for
that. Cyberpunk 2077 did a did a 180.
And they were it. Was cancelled for like a year.
They were. Now they fixed.
Yeah, no, if they. Had the money to actually
continue fixing it. And also the other game, the

(01:33:45):
space exploration game. What the fuck is it called?
Shit, I don't even tell them howthey've been working out of a 10
years Starfield. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
The other one where you can build your oh, you, you travel,
travel planets and. Not out of words out of.
Words. No no, no.
Fuck, man. It was on the tip of my tongue
and I'm like, dude. They've been working on that for
over 10 years for free, which isimpossible to do.
How do you do right and related to the game that they promised?

(01:34:07):
But look what they did though. They they over they over
promised a whole bunch of features that was never in the
game. Because the game is it.
I forgot. Yeah, I'm trying to.
Remember the name of the game? But let me describe like I
remember the E3, when they firstannounced it, they were saying
it was Co-op. They were saying all this stuff.
Like they had ABR to it. They talked so much nonsense
stuff that wasn't in it, but thereason why they did that because

(01:34:28):
they had a lot of pressure from the freaking shareholders.
They're like, yo, we, you know. Do this like no.
We're trying to promote the freaking thing.
They took Fable now and actuallymade it what it was supposed to
be. That was their main thing back
in the day, they said. Such a disaster, such a disaster
with them. It's so, it's so disgusting.
What's going on with that? It really is very, very
disappointing. But I mean, there's a lot of
choices for Indies. That's what they're doing,

(01:34:50):
right? There's a lot of choices for
everybody. But AAA, there's not a lot of
choice for everybody. Yeah, What's up, Barcode?
No Man's Sky. Yes, that's it.
Thank you. That's fine.
Three people at the same exact time.
You. No Man's Sky.
John, Lisa World the bizarre embargo they.
Got Google but yeah. Thank you.
Yeah, thank you. It's hard to Google doing
everything else here exactly, but.

(01:35:13):
But yeah, they complete 180 on that.
They fixed those games. But on the other side of the
spectrum, Marvel Rivals released.
Rabble, rabble. Free to play in.
February. You're getting all the
characters. All you have to do is buy
costumes. If you want, that's optional.
They did their greed right though.
Yeah, no, that's. The problem?

(01:35:33):
Greed done right? Well, no, because.
You still get a full game that you can play for free, but you
don't have to buy all the costumes.
I haven't spent it done. Done wrong is what WB was doing,
ripping you off. Yeah.
So they got greedy and they did it wrong and now there's no
game. Yep, fuck you WB.
Damn multiverses, yeah. But y'all didn't like Suicide

(01:35:54):
Squad killed the. Suicide Squad, it was pretty
much you. Know what The funny thing is?
If I if I would, what happened with that?
See, Suicide Squad is not. Who even cares about Suicide
Squad like that? Well, when they no, I kind of
do. No, I mean like like that.
When they did it, they were probably banking on the movie
baking, on the success of that baking, on All Guardians of Guys
I. Didn't like either one of the

(01:36:14):
movies. This is going to be huge.
I'm saying when they were deciding on the game, you know,
it takes a while to come out. They were like, yo, we got this,
we got this, this is. But listen.
Just make it beat them up and people would have been fine.
Just make it beat. Them up?
Yeah, because they were working in that game for seven years, I
think. No, no one wants to beat.
Them and they were two. They were two 2 movies.
No one wants. No one wants to beat them.
No one wants to be a. Suicide, they found out.

(01:36:35):
That's cool. Bro they found out is.
He the entire suicide, No. Everyone's going to be fighting
to beat that shot, pretty much. What about Captain Boomerang?
What the fuck is that? No.
What about King Chuck? Well, listen, this is just like
hardly quit. They weren't sure about the
gameplay to begin with. They weren't sure about
anything, to be honest. That was the problem.
Listen, you could put out any game with the gameplay loop is
fun. It's going to be fun, you know

(01:36:57):
it's. Like Fortnite with suicide,
yeah. And and that's the thing because
like this is not the yeah, this is like Fortnite with, with DC
comic book characters. Yeah.
Because the there's no, there's no fight that would go down
looking like this, you know whatI mean?
Yeah, and you don't know. You don't know your source of
material. You're just trying to get money
from it. Yeah, and when they decided and.

(01:37:18):
It's on the cash in. When they decided on that,
that's when Fordite was really making crazy money and they see
what it's doing. So they're like, how do we get
in on this? This is a business move, not a
gameplay. No hearts, no nothing in that.
There you go NBA2K. Is greed done wrong?
What about the voice acting in 2K15 though?
Dude, what they did, they must have saved money on that, yeah.

(01:37:38):
I'm sure they paid them. Actually, no, that was act the
actual Ballers. So maybe they, maybe they paid.
Yeah, they paid them. But I'm saying like NBA used to
be high regard best basketball game all the time.
Yep, Madden used to be basketball game all the time.
Out here, none of that shit. No more no.
Everybody hates on those now. NBA Live 90.
Five, what they did in WWE with that island, that's a bad move.

(01:38:00):
I didn't see, I I didn't get. Oh, WWE, I heard it's I I.
Remember that free roam island? It's not a good idea.
I heard about it and I remember when it was first mentioned and
I was like, I, I don't know about that.
I mean, that's the what was, I don't know.
About that, what was the thing about it?
It's just same thing they did for the NBA.
Is the NBA island? Walk around, build your stuff by

(01:38:21):
your stuff. This is stupid.
So that's just wrong. Greed, greed, greed, greed.
Greed, greed, greed, greed. It's like a casino, Paul.
C said cosmetics is the way to do microtransactions, even if
you have to buy the game like Marvel Avengers.
They call the content free. Only charge for costumes that
have no effects. You know what's funny about the
Marvel's Avengers? I paid maybe 20 bucks for one

(01:38:42):
costume. Or something like.
That, yeah, no, but it's like, but it's not.
You don't have to. You could actually.
They did it right, because you did.
Yeah. Yeah, I see.
Game because you because The thing is I enjoyed the gameplay,
I like the characters and I wanted to support them yeah, but
that was that was that was basedoff of the gameplay and the fun
I was. Having yeah and, and and not
not. I can't deny the fact that when

(01:39:03):
we played four players, it was dope.
That was incredibly fun. And you can't be like yo I'm
having so much fun with this. This is free.
I was just thinking about the I was thinking about the other
day. I'm like, damn, that was fun.
I was like, I really like the characters in that game.
And there was more on the way. I'm like, that was just that's,
that's the, that's the the tragic formula of the business
nowadays, man, when it was live.Service, that's when it's having

(01:39:25):
when you have magic, that's whenit's done right.
Yeah, like we're playing hell divers and that's.
Just. I'm about to buy this nuke bomb
for 5 bucks. Not going to be heard about it
like I was going to do. It hell Divers is a beautiful
game and it's not a free to play.
It's but you can't play. You can't play to do it.
I could have done it for free ifI'm going to play for another 30
hours. Yeah, I was like, yo, I want

(01:39:45):
that now. It's only 5 bucks.
Yeah, yeah, that's when it worksout.
I'm not playing against people. So you're not cheating.
Yeah, so it's a beautiful, fun game, Yeah.
And whenever I buy a costume in Rivals I have no issues 0.
Cuz you love it, it gives you a great experience so you don't
mind throwing money to keep it going.
Yeah, and I want that game goingfor as long as humanly possible.

(01:40:08):
And Helldive is considered AAA, right?
That's weird because yeah, according to budget, I don't
think it's considered triple AI.Don't think.
Plus the game is 40 bucks. Yeah.
So yeah, I'm not sure, but they made they mean a lot.
They mean a lot, yeah. John makes a good point.
Magic. 10 player. Bomberman at your place on the.

(01:40:28):
Saturn. Oh, he's dropping that Saturn
knowledge right there. Man, that is magic.
Listen, that's one that's maybe top 2 Bomberman games of all
time. You.
Don't like Bomberman 0? Bomberman 0 what's what?
Oh don't even. I never even played that
fucking. Trap I'll bring up bring up
footage of Bomberman 0. We were having such a good time

(01:40:50):
until you brought that up, like we were doing just fine.
It's one of those games. And they're trying to make
Bomberman like super serious with Oh yes.
I I bought, I played the new one, I got 1 Bomberman act 0.
Yes. I've no time to play it, but I
love Bomberman. That's a decision gone wrong.
What the hell is this? That's the party mode.
This is Bomber man. That's the party mode.

(01:41:11):
The regular mode is up close. What happened to the big ass
helmet with the not the fuck? No, man, Halo.
I used to love and the and the Saturn bomber man I used to love
killing Higgins from. Master.
Higgins from Adventure Islands, anytime he was on the floor.
Yeah, Bonk. Bonk was in there.
Yeah, that that, that. I love when they added shit like
other characters to the game. That was pretty cool.

(01:41:33):
Dude I missed when AAA games were just well known games.
Yeah. That was.
Fine, when they were just the well known games that was.
Fine. Like the Nintendo put out AAA
games, like, all right, it wasn't, it wasn't hugely
budgeted. It was just they put time into
it. Yeah, that's what made it.
Time and love. And love, yes, it should mean
heart. AAA should be how much heart put

(01:41:53):
into the game, Yeah. And if it's and if it's not
finished, it's not finished. People like to put titles on it,
like indie. All that's just an indie game.
It's like what makes it bad? Yeah, yeah, like Indy doesn't
mean like, trash. Like I think that it's a that's
why they don't want to put low budget with Indy.
They want to put low budget withthat like it's trash.
That's not the case. People are stupid, man.

(01:42:15):
I'm tired. I'm tired of human beings.
I'm done with human beings. But.
That's kind of like there's no games on the system when there's
1000 games that came out this week and I'm like, there's no
games. Where's Elden Ring?
I'm like, dude, it's not. That's not the only game.
It's a great game. That's like there's three games
in the world. Yeah, that I play.
That's what you know when you goto work and they're like, you

(01:42:36):
play in this. I'm like, I play in Assassin's.
Creed yeah, a fake ass game. They play the big title of the
month and that's it. But that that qualifies as games
if everyone's talking about it. You know, if I pull out a game
I'm talking about, you're like, I don't know what.
The fuck? I I always love.
I love it when younger cats are at, you know, they'll grow up
with like N64, whatever, and they'll be like, oh, so what's
your favorite game or whatever? I'm like, if I say you ain't

(01:42:56):
going to know. I could drop five games, you are
not going to know what I'm saying.
They're like, what game? I'm like shine Force 3 forsake,
Sir, What's that? I just told you, you're not
going to fucking know. Dude, I said.
I said Astrobot is going to be game of the year this year, they
said. What's that?
Astrobot. Really.
Yeah, yeah. You play 3 games, then you only
play three games. Casual.
Gamers don't know what No, no. And it actually won game of the

(01:43:20):
year. So I was like, see, I told you
and. If you play it, you probably
would like it. You would probably enjoy.
It yeah, Astrobot is cool, I said.
It's like, it's like Sony's Mario.
I said. I had no idea, no idea what it
was. I'm like, that's, that's the
crazy part. Sorry, no, no one, No, no one's
hyping. It up no.
So I don't know what it is. No one told me what to do.
It's not on my hype train bro. Yeah, yeah, you got to tell me

(01:43:42):
what to do. It's not on my feed.
Yes, it's not in my timeline. It's not trending bro.
I'm seeing memes on Astrobot. Come on man.
But yeah, wait, this. Is like arms the platformer?
Wow, that's the power up dude, can you?
Wow, you know what ARMS would work better as a platformer to

(01:44:03):
be honest. And I didn't even like Arms.
Actually Arms would work better as a platform fighter.
It'll be better as anything else.
Arms was such a like lackluster game dude.
A bare bones. I appreciate the idea but this
was not a good execution. I got that at launch man.
Was that considered AAA? Yeah, I want who meant what?
That's Nintendo, right? It's Nintendo.
So yeah, it is No title bad, butit was so it was like, what was

(01:44:28):
it? 88 round 8 fights and then I was
it and you get an ending screen.I was like there's no, they
didn't add anything to the game.They didn't have any.
I mean, if there's any downside to Indy titles is the yes, there
are too many games. There's a lot of and they're
good. They're still like really good.
Lastly, remember Al? I was just mentioning the
fucking Metrovanias. I'm like, remember that guest

(01:44:48):
vault or whatever, whatever thatgame is, I was like, whatever
happened to that? I'm like, that's crazy, dude,
that's amazing. I installed like 5 Metrovanias
on the computer over here and it's not even, and it's not even
like somewhere. No, they're all pretty.
They're all great, great. They're all great in the in the.
Title that you'd rate a nine it's like yeah yeah yeah and

(01:45:09):
there's so many games that are that that quality and you're
like yeah that's a good one but this one's just as good as
blasphemous last. Faith and.
Then when it's not half as good as getting all the publicity,
that's what sucks. Cortana Zero, man Oh God, that
game's crazy. You wouldn't hear anyone talk
about that. My friend Pedro who talks about
that. My friend Pedro is another one
we. Should go into work tomorrow and

(01:45:29):
talk about these games. Yeah, yeah.
See what that Yeah, you play that new fucking Catata 0.
No got to put people. Talk about Retromania wrestling.
No, Like what? Look.
At this man, yo, I've been a little sidebar.
I've been low key just keeping an eye on wait forward because I
know ever since that interview, I'm like, what you guys, you
guys get a brewing on something.I'm like something, man.

(01:45:51):
And I always just go back to what Ben and Root has said about
he loves Guardian Heroes. And I'm like.
I mean, it would be something because I did hear rumors of a
Guardian Heroes coming from Segaand I was like, I'm Sega.
Guardian or a gun star? Was it guardian or gun star?
Actually, I think it was. I think Gun Star.
I think it was Gun Star either. One I was like, how was that
owned by Sega? But I guess that now it is.

(01:46:13):
Because that was treasure, and treasure's gone.
So maybe they're like, all right, I'll take it.
Yeah. So it would be interesting.
Oh dude, I would probably. I would no.
Seagull there's no legs. Kev Turbo there's no legs.
Game no legs. Damn, that's terrible.
Yo, he did a bad joke in the chat.
Yeah, no, he can't help. He can't help.
He's a bold add mode. Shit's fucking.

(01:46:35):
Crazy. You know what new beat em up?
They actually come out with Bionic 6.
Bionic Bionic 6. Wait, did anyone see that that?
Hold on. Hold on, hold on.
There was a video I sent you guys and no one responded.
It was a looked like a Metroid venue, but it was like an 80s
cartoon. Did I see it?
I don't know if I even clicked. It hold on, there's been a lot

(01:46:55):
of that chalk. So it's what was it not far
fetched that that that would wasit a YouTube clip?
There was a trailer? Yeah.
Give me a thumb. I'm saying it was called Cobra.
Cobra. It was a YouTube clip.
Yeah, it's good. I can pull up the chat now.
It was going out. Cobra the awakening how far was
the No, I I have the link. I just I'm going to pull up the
chat so I can click the link. It's not it's not too far.

(01:47:17):
I can post it again. If it's you don't want to
scroll, I'll post it right. Now just forward it back to the.
Thing. Yeah, where it was today.
You sent it? No, a couple days ago, but I
just posted it. I just posted it just now just
so you can see it. I got it.
Yes, we can't run from Turbo's bad jokes.
No, no one can. Report them.
We're all prisoners. Yeah, you can block them for a
little bit. All right, this is the trailer
here. Yeah.
I don't know if this was a cartoon, maybe it was, but it's

(01:47:38):
like a 80s, it's so 80s Space adventure, Cobra, The Awakening.
Adapted from the iconic anime. OK, so yeah, so it isn't it's an
anime. Oh, I didn't even see him run
from that perspective, I guess. Wow, that's interesting.
Like Strider? I kind of like that, yeah.
Oh said he killed a dolphin. That looks cool.
I was like, yo, they've been doing, they've been doing a lot

(01:47:58):
of these 80s style fucking things coming back.
And I, I'm, I'm here for it. Man, what the fact that you
could do it and look so polished, Yo, that's not 80s
that. Dude that's like 82.
Yeah, that's like the pirate what?
That pirate anime Starship something.
The butt pirate battleship something.
This guy. What the hell this guy No man,

(01:48:20):
bro. Bro.
It was like you got Tourette's, man.
The same. It's it's, it's the sake.
It was like he looked like that.He looked like that.
Oh, man, sorry. I'm sorry, man.
I'm sorry. Yo, I would love to see if
Thundercats look like that. I love the Yeah, they can beat

(01:48:41):
them up, Yeah. Cartoons look like that.
That's fine. Like whenever you make a game
that looks better than the cartoon.
It's it's possible now? Yeah, that was mad Flash Gordon.
We talk about Dragon Ball. He was like when we see the new
Dragon Ball games. It looks better than the cartoon
ever did for sure. The the Polish on the fucking,
the inking and just that reminded me of yeah.
Is make the show over? Reminded me of this show that's.

(01:49:02):
It. Mullet Mad Jack is an indie
game. Mullet.
What? Mullet Mad Jack?
It's like a 80s. It's inspired by 80s anime.
Oh, that's a 99. I must say I'm getting like a
fist of an All Star zillion zillion vibe.
I'm getting robots. That's dope.
That's all robots. You don't drive.
This is not a driving game. This is just how it starts.
That was like the Sega CD game that had the cars, all you can

(01:49:23):
hit left and right like Dragon'sLair.
You want a, You want a, You wanta techno cop like this?
Hell yeah man. Yo, if this was that would be so
sick. But you gotta keep the bad
sounds. Hell yeah man, don't.
That's Gunsmith Cat's heart. I can see it.
Yeah, that's definitely the sameartist who does Gunsmith Cats.

(01:49:44):
Yeah, what kind of game is this?It's a you'll see in a second.
Driving. So this is the guy.
He's got to keep saying driving.And that same guy, he's
terrifying. Makes me think, damn, see, that
makes me think of another Xbox game that's probably not going
to come out. Yeah, the cyber was recharged or
whatever replaced. So it plays like, remember the

(01:50:07):
movie Crank? Yeah, where you drugged out?
It's like a it's a time based thing.
So every time you kill somebody,you get more time on the on the
clock. Right now it's like a Sega CD
game. Yeah, it.
Looks like a puzzle. Kind of is That's her.
That's she's like telling you your objective or whatever.
Is this a puzzle game? No, I don't even know.
Oh, this is the game play. It's the first person.
OK. It's fun as shit though.

(01:50:27):
Oh, this is drugs and this is indie.
Yeah, but it's make things look so clean now.
It's dope. You have to go fast.
You have to like you're like racing basically for the clock.
See, I'm telling you, I'm legit waiting.
I mean these you kick shout out to all the developers who are
doing this. But like, ever since even though
that one game that came out thatwas first person, it looked like

(01:50:48):
an 80s like medieval game. It did not do well.
But like, but I but I but I lovethat fact that they're keep
trying to come out with shit like that.
I was, I was disappointed with that game.
But yes, I give them credit for trying something.
It shouldn't have been first person, dude.
Yeah, it shouldn't have been, shouldn't have been.
Yeah, but oh, this is on Game Pass, by the way.

(01:51:09):
Oh, mullet Mad Jack. But the thing that the thing,
just to go back to the question of the thing, the thing that the
Indies is doing better than AAA is their budgeting in a decision
making. That's the biggest process,
getting their games out the door.
Yeah. I mean something like some of
the Indies, like some of those Indies titles have taken over 4
years, five years. Yeah, like a fucking fallen

(01:51:31):
don't come out fallen city. City Brawl.
Is it brawl? Yes.
Why does that sound like like a different game to me?
It's because I've been drinking.Well, Fallen City brawls took a
minute to. Come they do take a long time to
develop also but. But it's released though, it's
coming out and he started, he was by himself.
Yeah, he is making the game. So I can't imagine.
Actually, I can't imagine because I work on something

(01:51:52):
myself. So like to have other people
come in and help out and stuff like that.
It's it's must be a breath of fresh air.
But an overblown budget with 1000 employees?
Shout out to Mike Wells because this comes out August 12th and
he's going to be back on the podcast y'all.
What is the date? I didn't know there's the date.
Yeah, August 12th coming out full release.
Yeah. Nice.
And I think this this demo is upon Steam now, the new the demo's

(01:52:14):
up and I The funny thing is I love it when we have any
developers on and we talked to him, He asked us, you know, what
do you guys think? I said we all said the sound of
when you hit someone is beyond important.
Yeah and it beat them up. That sound has to be, you know,
and the juggling 22 important things and what's in the game
now juggling and that hit the hits are like sounds so fucking

(01:52:39):
good. And yeah, man, I'm excited to
play it. I'm excited to play it looks
like a fun Arcady beat them up. But that's like my little my
little side thing I want to say.And it's awesome how it started
as a Kickstarter. Yeah, man, I like I like to see
these guys do good man, That's awesome.
Any developers, man got to support them.
They're keeping the magic alive and gaming.

(01:53:01):
Fuck the AAA now. I'm joking.
I'm joking guys, I'm joking. For no reason.
So you go over, you start breaking your games.
Like I used to love it. I love, I love AAA.
It's got to like, toned down on spending so much money on
nonsense. It's pretty much a yeah, Small,
smaller teams. Yeah, man.

(01:53:22):
And they're too much of A time sink.
Also, yeah, for my age at least.I was young for no, no, for
everybody, for everybody that either has kids, married or has
a job and nobody has that. Time in order to get into these
takes far too much of an ass sometimes.
They actually call them forever games.
No, because they never end. They just keep.
Live service, Yeah, Not for that.
How many games have I recommended to you guys?

(01:53:44):
And you guys aren't married withkids and it's you still don't
have time, dude. I haven't played Horizon 2 yet.
I bought that three years ago, maybe 4.
Years I got it. Was it 4 years now?
Horizon I got the about a year and a half.
For me, I was supposed to get that DLC and I never did.
Dude the first Black Friday was available for cheap.
I bought it, haven't even openedit yet.
That's. Correct.
Horizon 2 is. Incredible, and I like Part 1 a

(01:54:06):
lot. You'll fall in love with part
like all the characters they didsuch like you actually give a
you give a damn. First one I don't really care.
This one I was like, I actually give a damn about the
characters. The bad guys were dope.
The the new weapons are fucking dope.
But how many games I played before that?
That's the problem. No, it's hard.

(01:54:26):
It's hard. To sink 60 hours into this movie
or do I want to play 18 other games?
Like, you know what's crazy? Stop it.
The way I see that, it's like like open world games are like
games that take like 100 hours to be.
I see that the same way I see, like, TV shows, like trying to
watch a show. No, same time I have to, like,
dedicate all this time. Yo, what up, Riken?

(01:54:48):
Yo, shout out to Riken. Thanks for doing your best to
carry us. Yeah, we needed that.
You know, I'm going to try to practice in the meantime
because, oh, my God, we stunk itup so big.
My apologies. Well, another thing though, like
for the time, all right, trying to do all these TV shows that
come out because, you know, there's tons.
There's awesome shows, there's there's and movies and movies

(01:55:10):
too many. Man, you want to keep up with
that while I haven't time to play all these games.
You have to pick. Yeah, and then there's also
YouTube. Dude, you know how many times
I've beaten the game and watchedsomeone else play the same game
but the same amount of hours? Like dude I just put 40 hours
into all. Right, I'm I'm, I know exactly
what you're talking about too, because it's it's.
I mean, there's other stuff too.We watch other people play.

(01:55:32):
It's so many distractions. But I mean, yeah, it's taking
the time away from you actually playing because there's been
days I was like, I had the wholeday off.
I'm about to play this whole game, get through like 20 hours
today and one day. But I'm, I'm like, oh, it's 8:00
PM already, right? And I was like.
Should I just watch this 2 hour movie?
Right? Yeah.
The thing is, is that like, all right, right now?
Like I'm, you know, trying to play Jedi Survivor.

(01:55:55):
Is it that's, you know, open world.
But I'm like, but I was like, you know, when I think of
playing an open world, I'm like,I really got to.
I, it's not just I'm playing. I got to get immersed, Like I
really got to. And then, you know, what pops up
in my head, you know, I just cando a couple of battles in
Shining Forest too. Yeah.
And I do that and I do that because that's like 30.
Minutes. No.
And then hours are still fast. Yeah, yeah.
It's just like because it's just, it's familiar.

(01:56:17):
I know what it is, and I need that, that that quickness, you
know, rather than getting all right.
Oh, shit. I went the wrong way in this
game. Yeah.
Because if you don't play, if you don't constantly keep
playing that game, you're lost. You're not building up the right
things in your character, and you're getting waxed.
Oh, yeah. So it's like.
And you know how many people have watched play Clarifsphere?

(01:56:37):
Like I've watched people play Clarifsphere like 5 Times Now,
like different parts of the game.
But those hours rack up and justto see their expression when
they get to certain points and we listening to like the music
and stuff while I'm watching I'mlike, this is awesome.
But during that time I could have been like.
I could be playing, yeah. Know something else?
Because I beat that, right? I already got through that game,

(01:56:58):
but I'm still living experienceswith that game, right?
Because, you know, you don't want to rush through everything,
Yeah. Sometimes, yeah, John, it's,
it's old people problems. Yeah, pretty much.
Or or mature mature grown up problems.
Should I say no? Like no, Having YouTube having
too many options is a young person problem.
A lot of stimulation, man. Like a lot like young kids will

(01:57:18):
be watching, playing a game, watching YouTube while chatting
with people, while videoing withsomeone else, while watching a
movie. Like I'm not doing all that.
It's too much at the same time, too much stimulus.
I'm not watching a movie while playing a game portably in my
hand. No, like I'm watching something
and paying attention. This is why the young UNS are
coming out. Weird man.
This is why they can't interact with each other out in public.
Because they're. Stuck here doing all this shit

(01:57:40):
this. Is what they'll do.
They'll do all of that the next day.
They go on Reddit, they'll watchall the memes, and then they'll
discuss what they thought about something based on what they
read. Yeah, Yeah.
We said, yo, how'd you like thatmovie?
I don't know. I was even watching.
But on the Internet they say it sucked.
So it sucks they don't have a million at home.
That's the no, that's, that's their world.
And then if they actually go outin public and like a female

(01:58:03):
talks to them, they shit themselves.
It's. Weird.
It's like. A It's a weird thing.
It's a very weird, weird thing. They'll be like.
You know how bad Spider of Superman was?
Like I just heard the Superman came out or see how bad it is.
I'm like, did you watch it? No.
Look how opinions are formed before things are out.
Yeah, that shit they see before they see.
This the craziest thing I've ever seen.

(01:58:24):
They're like, I ain't gotta watch that shit.
I'm like, how is it bad? Then I ain't gotta watch it.
It's bad. What are you talking about?
Zon Zon said Butt pirate from Yeah, that's that.
That's true, John. It's not just young people.
It's not just young people, but I'm just saying like, you know,
that it's, it's, it's a problem because there's too much

(01:58:45):
stimulation everywhere, man. There's too much, too much
things to watch, too much entertainment.
Yeah, around this, not just young people, 'cause just just
said old people. You said it's everybody and I
agree, John, I love, we loved ittoo.
That was a lot of. Man, it's dope.
That was a fun movie. I love the the new Superman.
My point is, don't say that something is bad without
actually experiencing what's badabout it.

(01:59:06):
Tell me what you think is bad, not because you saw it.
And you know what the And if yousee it, don't just say it's bad.
No, explain and not explain anything you.
Form your own opinion. You know, and if you disagree
with something that we say, tellus why.
Because it because it makes for a fun discussion.
Yeah, I love the Reeves, I love Cavill and I like Cornerset.
I mean, come on, It's it's it's fine.

(01:59:28):
But like if you. See a take.
If you see a take on the podcastand you say what a bad take,
explain what your good take is on that so we can discuss what
we think and what you think. It's not a problem.
It's not a problem having a different thought than us.
Yeah, it's OK. And yes, Mass I I've been
avoiding AC shadows because thatlooks amazing and I heard it's a
lot of time, but I want it. I'm waiting for a price drop,

(01:59:52):
but yeah, and I know it's on sale right now, but I wanted to
drop a little bit more. And yes, there are little.
There's little patches of hate. Online for everything.
Yeah. And if you look for them, you'll
find them. Oh, yeah.
You might think that's the entire world.
It's not. It's not.
It's the it's the army, the minority of people, the army of
the sexless. Yeah, and I don't care about

(02:00:13):
people who disagree. I'm not going to give them the
time of day. Yeah, I don't listen to that.
Yeah, it's. Not they're not going to change
my opinion because they thought differently, it's just I wonder
why. And if you discuss why that'll
be cool, the discussion, that's just wow, I didn't think that or
you, I can maybe change. I'm not trying to change
anyone's mind, but maybe I can be like, yo, did you not think

(02:00:34):
that was cool? Oh, maybe they should have did
that. Maybe see that's how it goes.
Yeah, it's no, I think it's we're in the movies is an art,
man. We're in a generation now where
it's like you have to have a gotcha moment.
You have to freaking get somebody.
You have to freaking hate. You can't.
You can't explain and. The only things that matter are
AAA. So AAA movies, AAA games, indie

(02:00:54):
things don't matter. It doesn't matter how many indie
movies come out, how much indie music comes out, how much indie
games come out. No one cares about those.
They only care about the AAA. And that's a big problem with
the AAA industry. Just to shut it down as the main
topic. Zanzan said it's not very hard

(02:01:16):
not to prejudge nowadays. I mean for a lot of.
People thing that's what people do now.
Yeah, that's what it is. Now everybody judges.
But now? Judge enough to cancel.
That's the. Problem, yeah.
They were like, I don't know whythis exists, why did you even
think of making that instead of actually experiencing it and
determine whether it's good or bad?
Going back to what you were saying before with the license

(02:01:37):
to go, like I think that should be a thing though, yes, it
should be a no, a real no, a good idea that that'd be a great
idea, but. People can find you.
Perfect. Yeah, I'll be.
I'll be over the house. It'll say that shit, say that
shit to my face. Now.
Fighting games will be interesting.
No, they'll find out. A lot of they'll find out.
A lot of people will be much more of a bitch and it'll be

(02:01:59):
much less of a problem. But harassing people, Yeah,
they're not gonna show up. Yeah, they're not gonna be at
your door. It's true, but that's the thing
about that. The prejudging is like, it's
like the Zelda news, right? That's why I didn't.
That's why I didn't even click and see people's reactions.
I guess I don't care about people's reactions.
Like this guy? I care about my reaction and I
don't really see an issue at this point.

(02:02:20):
Yeah, my reaction was like, oh, cool.
Yeah, you had an actual reaction.
I did. I did.
Yeah, oh, you had a reaction. I had a reaction.
I was like, oh, cool. I can't wait to see the freaking
trailer. In your head.
Yeah, your home's in the building.
What's? Going on, what's going on?
Oh yeah, that's the main problemis people don't have.
Opinions of their own, they waitto.
See the They don't have a brain.They're like, oh wait, is

(02:02:42):
everyone hating? Because I might as well jump on
that bandwagon. I think it's cool.
Because hive mind. Oh, everyone likes it, I guess.
I love it. No, no, I have an opinion of
your own. What's that?
Leave the house. But I mean, like, you can go on
forever and that's why it's the podcast, so we can go on forever
again next week. John has brought up a good

(02:03:05):
point, man. What do you got, Chad?
John said We used to consume entertainment to experience.
Now it has to be exactly what you personally expect.
Nobody wants to be taken on a journey anymore.
Well said. Well said.
I want to be taken on the journey.
They're going to take you for a ride.
And actually, instead of experiencing what it is, they

(02:03:25):
try and determine what it is. So while watching something,
they say, how come they didn't do this, they didn't do this,
they didn't do this. How come they made this ending
when I had an ending in my head that was so much better.
Like experience what it is, and it's for what it is.
To go with that, the recent Superman movie, I purposely
avoided any reviews or anything,any comments or anything.
I didn't even watch the second trailer.

(02:03:46):
I didn't even watch anything. I wanted to go in there fresh
and just enjoy the movie for what it is.
And I did thoroughly enjoyed it,Raikkon says.
It feels like things come too fast, that it's hard to enjoy.
Games, movies and the music, everything is in reach all the
time, Yeah. Well, that's why there's a huge
backlog. It's bang, bang, bang, bang.
Oh, oh, this game's out. Oh my God.
Next week. Oh, another one.

(02:04:08):
What was it? Another one?
What was it? They.
Do that to placate the master sothey can just get over on us all
the time. We were talking about Overcook 2
yesterday in the group chat and then I was like, yeah, we
streamed that on the channel, but which was it?
Me? Did I have it moving out to
moving out to my bed? And I was like, do I?

(02:04:29):
I don't remember buying shit. Do I have the game?
That's how many games we have, man.
We have so. Many kids in the channel here,
so if you were just one person, you pretty much know which one
you stream. But because it's all of us,
you're like, who has that game? Yeah, I'm thinking in my
library. I'm like damn, what the hell did
I buy that I don't? But I mean, yeah, it is a lot of
stuff, but the fact that it takes the 10 years now to make a

(02:04:50):
AAA game is a problem. Yeah, especially if you're a fan
of such and such a game. I'm like, yo, Last of Us was
dope. Maybe they're not going to.
They said they're never going tomake another Last of Us, which
they probably may never do. They never said to him making a
three. But people like to assume
there's going to be another one.But waiting 10 years is kind of
crazy. I mean Final Fantasy like oh
remember it was Final Fantasy 123456.

(02:05:12):
I mean GTA within 10 years. You know what I'm saying?
Within like 5 years, Yeah, yeah,yeah, yeah.
Two and three. Well, yeah.
What was it? It was 4-5 and six.
Yeah. On Super Nintendo, it's a five
year span. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now it's like, did we get Final Fantasy 16?
Yeah, actually did we get 15 over that last that might have
been last seen? On the Xbox One and the PS.

(02:05:34):
Yeah, that was last two. That's crazy.
But yeah, that's crazy. You'll never get another Chrono
truck nowadays. Yeah, how many people did
Microsoft fire man in the last year?
Gaming division I'm not sure, but Microsoft in general.
In general. Over they probably.
Well, they probably have the most.

(02:05:55):
Over 9000 it was. Definitely over 9000, Yeah,
yeah, yes. They probably have the most 20.
Years between Fallout 4 and five?
Maybe. Maybe.
Yeah, these games take a long time now the the scope is too
large. GTA six, man, I don't know.
You know how they say it's too big to fail?
I don't know, man. No, I don't know.
Nothing's too big to fail nowadays, Yeah, I.

(02:06:16):
Don't know. Yeah, and if it takes magic, if
it took you 15 to 20 years, actually make a sequel and
people forgot because, listen, that's generations of people.
I don't know nothing about Fallout besides the show, but
people are fans of Fallout 4, New Vegas are grandpas now.
So when they come out with that sequel, they think, oh, we're
going to make as many sales as we did back in the day.

(02:06:38):
Not quite sounds I said. I'm so sick of when I get a
chance to play a game, the console needs an update, then
the game needs an update to pull.
Yep, that's true. That's what happened with
Marvel. Marvel Rivals. 50 gig. 56 gigs,
man, took me an hour to freakingdownload.
I was like, Jesus, This is why Streets of Rage 4 gets so much
gameplay, because it's like I play it so I'm like, I don't,

(02:07:01):
you know, I'm gonna throw it in.I'm gonna throw it in.
Fuck it. Large game files, man.
That's that is an issue. When you have to preload your
games and even think about enjoying it when it comes out,
it's crazy. Superman is not emo.
Now. Don't listen to the Internet.
Yeah, don't listen to it. Come on.
Emotional. I mean, yes, he is emotional.
He's he's a vulnerable Superman.He's not as interesting.

(02:07:22):
He's a symbol of hope, a symbol of hope.
Great movie, fun times. He's not an uncharismatic
muscle. Damn, that, that sounds like a
hate. That sounds like hating taking
shots at somebody. What the hell?
That's hater sticks. What that that was?
That was hater sticks right there.
I didn't say anything. We we felt the hate from here.
Listen, yes updates, we should have a podcast about updates,

(02:07:43):
