Starting point is 00:00:00 Music Everybody feeling okay? We're not all too tired? I'm a little sleepy. A little sleepy. That Red Bull did nothing. I think it powered him down. It wasn't great. Like a nega Red Bull? Yeah, nega Red Bull.
Starting point is 00:00:27 Well, there's, there's, uh, slow cow. Drank and mellow. And there's slow cow as well. Slow cow's like the funniest. There's the Bob Marley drink as well. I don't even want to actually do it. So mellow down if you're getting ready for bed. If you're too hype, no.
Starting point is 00:00:41 You have to get on stage in a minute. All of you guys out there should always be drinking this shit. It's like, there was a moment on stream where I kept drinking Red Bulls and everyone was like, Pat, you're turning redder and redder. You're going in as well. It's like, I was like, maybe I could have used a mellow cow. Whatever. Our official energy drink would be the Zybatzu Pumped Down.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Yeah. Zybatzu Pumped Down. Who's ready to get pumped down? Yeah. It's just poison. That's how you get it. Medicinal ingredient, 2% arsenic. It's only 2%.
Starting point is 00:01:16 How bad could it be? Yeah. You'll run slower than Kenyans. You'll never get me into a ring. Boxing causes brain damage. He just drinks like a bottle of varnish. Well, the reason why we're all tired is because big Zybatzu on a big day. It's been a big week.
Starting point is 00:01:34 I think the term burning the candle up both ends would apply here. I never understood what that meant. That's why the candle's on its side. I thought it was something wasted all the wax. Wasted all the wax. No, it's not. I thought it was actually like a super filthy thing. No.
Starting point is 00:01:51 And I was confused that people used it all the time. In particular, my week was fun because prior to even doing the Nuzlocke stream, had my teeth yanked out and did recording. So Wally is now toothless. Had my last wisdom day. His natural state. And was also recording and editing for the days prior. And we're going to be doing that for the days after this as well, if there's really no
Starting point is 00:02:15 breaking site, but it's good times. Well, there's a break for Matt. There is. Big break. Run away from a nicer place. After doing the most work. That seems fair. It seems fair to me too.
Starting point is 00:02:28 But let's start with... Forget about all that shit. Here comes Nuzlocke. I was going to go with podcasts. Well, we're here. We're doing a podcast. We've been doing it for like two minutes. You already yelled that.
Starting point is 00:02:42 We've been doing it for 51 weeks in a row, you guys. It's 51. Oh my God. Yeah. This podcast is soon approved. Predictions that we made are starting to come around. Matt, will you be on the podcast next week? Ooh, I like that actually.
Starting point is 00:02:58 What? Goichi podcast. Goichi podcast. I doubt it because I don't think Cuba's got the strongest Wi-Fi signals going on. I'm going to assume and I'm not going to... That's why I'm working and editing so much. Because I can't be editing stuff while in Cuba. And then in case I can't upload it.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Lest you play it back to yourself at some point. And like people over here, a shout of America. Fucking dudes kick your door down. What the fuck's going on in here? Not a great idea. So, you know, I don't see myself being on a podcast next week. No podcast birthday cake for you. Try not to get too hyped down there, man.
Starting point is 00:03:38 I would just try. Because the whole point is to get pumped down. Yeah. To go there. Like when we went to New York, whatever, let's do videos, let's record things. I'm not going to do a fucking thing. I'm going to lay on the beach and look at people get eaten by sea rye. Squirt catch up on your stuff.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Squirt catch up on myself. Now is this part of an elaborate ruse in which you'll have to go in for anti-leprosy treatments? Is that a thing? Is that a thing? It's a symptoms of something. I don't recall that one. Homer convinces people that he has leprosy. So they send him down to a leprosy treatment center in a tropical island.
Starting point is 00:04:18 And then Bar goes too. Yeah. And they get these horrible treatments with all these needles for like eight hours a day. They're like, it's totally worth it. We'll get back to the Simpsons in just a minute. Will we? We will. Oh shit.
Starting point is 00:04:31 And now, more Simpsons references. But first, the stream. The stream. That's some fucking, that's some best friend's history right there. It went well. That went really well. It's considered it was the first. It was okay.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Consider it was the first stream that had like all of us sort of involved. And being in a much more complicated fashion. Being a huge amount of time. You guys, I wish you could have seen my room because when they walked in, it's like serial experiments lame. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There was water on the bottom to keep the stream systems cool. I want to see Willie hooked up to all these like electrodes, like ghosts in the shell. There's all these wires coming out of his limbs.
Starting point is 00:05:11 I am a living entity born on the foundation of knowledge. My fingers split into like all these keyboard pressers. Yeah. He's going to step down there like at what? Nudish. And I looked at like what I would, you had the two laptops going with the same screens like on both. And I was like, okay. Yeah, I'm sure he knows what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I hope he knows what he's doing. He did. He did know. He worked out then and then off camera on the wall that the viewer couldn't see was that framed picture of spooky. Yeah. Every time I lost confidence. No, it's like he's praying like he's like Mother Teresa or something. Every time I lost confidence, I look over at him and he just like, I feel the spirit bless me.
Starting point is 00:05:50 And he just look at you and be like, you're free now. Yeah. He's looking at you and he'd be like, don't touch my computer. And when the completion of the Nuzlocke happened, you like the spooky is looking down on everyone. He's just like the going nothing. My spooky S link is at nine. I'm almost there. You guys.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Oh, which one did you pick? I don't ever mind. Two inside. Two inside. Two inside. So I saw looks like a bumper crop. Tell that shit. This dude's losing it.
Starting point is 00:06:22 We're just walking back from the Nuzlocke dinner talking about P4G and shit. And just all the people I'm hanging out with all the fun. And just every fucking hanging out with in person in person. And that's right. And every fucking time you plant your crops, they're always a bumper crop. Dojima. Why is everything a bumper crop? Because you're harvesting them on time.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Oh, looks like I haven't done this in a while. You did it four days ago with me. Your uncle. We got closer together for doing it. Your uncle is a bit of a scatterbrain when he's not doing detective shit. Fuck him. No wonder Nanako's so sad. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Just bind the little ice creams and then I'll let you know. Those little ice cream things he loves at Junas. Oh, Topsicles. That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's right. He loves that shit. I was going to say that one of the most things that I took away from the stream was someone
Starting point is 00:07:15 made a comment. I forget what it was in the other in the chat or is it a comment posted on the channel or whatever. But it was just like with this and pro Jared, something he did with the Nuzlocke is like I really think Pokemon maybe in general or just moving Nuzlocke's are much better suited for streams because it's more interactive and then people can give advice and things. Well, the main thing is that you can call like you or I out on something stupid that we said in 30 seconds and rectify it not a week and a half later.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Yeah. Two or three parts later. And so on. I mean, it's generally it seems like it's generally accepted that like pro Jared's Nuzlocke was like the best fucking one now. He's a pro. I don't know. And I was in Jared.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Yeah, sure. I didn't watch it because I didn't want to watch the thing of the thing we're going to do, you know, but that being said, yeah, like that got really fucking tense at the end. That got really fun. I said it like eight times on the stream, but I can't believe we got there. Every time we got somewhere further, I was stunned because I was hedging my bets that we'd die.
Starting point is 00:08:17 I like the fact that a lot of people were playing their own dramatic music of choice once we were moving on. And some people were playing Lieberomy from Hell. So people actually started playing a battle for everyone. Sorry, your old days. Yeah. Yeah. Bunch of nerd shit.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Yeah, man. Tell me about the islands. What about the? That told me to ask you about the islands when I got over the islands, but I forgot. It was a GBA, like a quest of that version. So that wasn't sure what it was. There's a whole new thing they threw in at the game and apparently someone explained it to me later.
Starting point is 00:08:52 It's like, it's where you go to get the. It was after you beat Blaine and just Bill just comes up to you and kidnaps you. He asks you, you want to come with me? And I was like, okay. Say no to Strangers. Yes, Stranger Danger. You know him very well. They shove you on a boat and they send you to a whole other region.
Starting point is 00:09:10 And that's apparently the part of the game where you get the stuff that's not in the Kanto Pokedex. Yeah. And it fucking is this side quest thing that you're stuck on for a while doing fetch quests and shit before you go back up to fight your time. Well, it's a good thing you did it. Otherwise I would have shown up to nothing. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:09:28 That's true. Yeah, because that was a really broad. All intents and purposes was literally a progress halter. It was. It took about an hour to get back on track. But the one level we got there was the difference between winning and losing. Yeah, maybe. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:09:40 And you got Hydro Cannon there. I got Hydro Cannon there. So we got the fucking Giga Drill Breaker that ends everything. Without having that, it wouldn't have been as amazing. The thing is too, I didn't know that they moved Moltres apparently. I totally forgot. So Moltres is no longer on Victory Road. They dropped them over on that new mountain or whatever.
Starting point is 00:10:00 I don't fucking remember. Exactly. I didn't play that game. But we got back on the path and we fucking, you know. Somehow did it. Set the fucking thing to slay four gods and we did it. And for those of you who are asking, because a lot of people still are not too sure, yeah, we're going to take this stuff and we're going to put it up for you guys to watch
Starting point is 00:10:16 on the site and on YouTube. So, you know. It'll be there. It'll be there. Yeah, no worries. I think we'll take away that when we find an appropriate thing, we could probably do more altogether streaming stuff. What it makes sense.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Like I said, when it makes sense, that's the key thing. It's going to make sense. Because we don't have any further plans immediately. 24 hours! Don't stream coming! We do not have plans immediately, but I named the channel Super Best Friends Play for a reason. If there's a good thing to do, we can go and do it.
Starting point is 00:10:47 But it's not a definite part of our plans right now because we're spread out pretty thin as far as coverage goes on a lot of stuff. Now, everyone has a really good idea for a stream that we should do. Sure. Here's how you do this. You type up your email to superbestfriendcast.gmail.com, then before you send it, delete it. That's how you do it.
Starting point is 00:11:13 And pretend you sent it. Yeah. Okay, we'll go with that. So, Nuzlocke is Nuzlocke. Those who weren't there, you'll see it soon. Or you can catch the archives. And absolutely the best choice was to stream the end. Even if it didn't fail your dream.
Starting point is 00:11:31 No, I'm really happy that that worked out. I basically said, look, at the point this is at, we've got to make it go good, or it can just go terribly and burn horribly. Exactly. One way or the other, push it to an extreme, and we got some good shit, man. We got some good shit. The artwork just started flowing. The videos and the gifts and all that fun stuff.
Starting point is 00:11:53 I'm glad. Looking up at fucking Luda. Luda in the sky. I got a message from someone that said, since you now have a channel stream, are you still going to do Streamslam? Yeah, I'm still going to do Streamslam. The next thing I'm going to do is Counter-Spy, but I don't know what day it comes up.
Starting point is 00:12:11 But I'm super hyped for Counter-Spy. Since you mentioned art, I just wanted to say, it was like kind of buried in there, because it was kind of not a day of you per se, but you did the Nuzlocke. I noticed what you threw up that day. I'm completely forgetting that Nuzlocke was that day when I scheduled the ultimate destruction to go up there,
Starting point is 00:12:31 but my favorite piece of artwork, all the Pokemon stuff was great, but it was just that picture of Hulk pointing that with another Hulk stand behind him. Because the Hulk stand is the Hulk. We should also take this time to mention, too, about the scheduling thing. What that's going to be about. How that works.
Starting point is 00:12:52 I remember seeing a lot of comments in particular on Reddit and NeoGaff in terms of light-wise the YouTube stuff going up way after the site stuff. And the reason is because when you make a little page for the video on the website, you can just say, I want this to go up at 3pm tomorrow. And then at any time, you can save it and say, no, I want it to go up at 4.25pm.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Because I'm not going to be or something... Or something different or whatever. But YouTube, with their scheduling thing, you can only choose to schedule stuff at the time of upload, which sucks. So one of us has to get to a PC and manually do the YouTube thing. So it means that on the days that it used to be
Starting point is 00:13:33 like one in the morning, when I would come home and go, oh shit, nothing went up. But a Chrono Trigger. I remember that happening like six times. Now the site will go up automatically, because it's a robot. And it'll be on schedule.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Which we're currently, what is it? Three and nine o'clock? We're generally doing three and nine o'clock. Right now, since the superhero month, three o'clock for let's play parts and then nine o'clock at night for a super friend. You guys also might have noticed that we're doing two videos a day now.
Starting point is 00:14:05 So in fact, the YouTube one is still on the exact same schedule as it used to be. It's just the website. It's just that we have to actually do it. Do it. And sometimes we don't. So most days it's gone up within like 10 minutes, 15 minutes,
Starting point is 00:14:22 or whatever, because Matt said I'm out of the house. Can you put this up? But sometimes I'm also out of the house, so you're out of the house. But when we went to Con Bravo, it was totally automated. We were busy. But we still had to rush back to the hotel room
Starting point is 00:14:38 and we were hours late. But that's why, and to just kind of bring it all together, that's why the Facebook post will go up when we get to the computer, because there's public, because you know, okay, we just got to sit down. The site will update itself and no one will be there, so there won't be a Facebook post about it.
Starting point is 00:14:54 But the schedule releases. A person has to do the Facebook post. Exactly. That's a nice benefit of the site. I feel like we should invent a robot to do this stuff. Why don't we just hire someone? To just upload, to just publish videos.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Should hire a robot. Yeah, okay. Can we get Zack to do this? We can teach him. We can work on this. He's got the little furry paws. Then we make him a furry paw keyboard. If he's the only one that can stomach a certain game,
Starting point is 00:15:26 maybe he's the only one that can do this manual labor. Zack's a tough cookie. Oh, it's so hard. I was under the impression he wasn't. Oh, that's true, he quit. Besides the Nuzlocke, other things that went down for me personally this week. Aside from all this bullshit,
Starting point is 00:15:43 what's going on with you? I had my jaw torn open. I had my jaw torn open, I yanked out the tooth, it's fixed. And then you went to the dentist. Yeah. It's actually funny that this time around,
Starting point is 00:15:59 it was the easiest tooth pulling I've ever had. That's really nice. That's saying like pulling teeth? Not really. I talked to you right after this happened the other day, all the cutting in the world didn't work. So I had the moment
Starting point is 00:16:15 where the dude latched the pliers on and honest to Christ, put his foot up on the chair. Why was he saying that as a joke? And had to go full on human power. That's bullshit.
Starting point is 00:16:31 No, that is standard. Yo, but it sucks. Remember, you didn't have to go through that shit. Back in the day cartoons would be like tie the string to the doorknob. Yeah, because putting your foot up makes it feel like I'm not a toolshed
Starting point is 00:16:46 that you need to do stuff physically, I'm a human being. But it came right out and the dentist was like, whoa, geez. I was expecting way more trouble there. Hey Mabel, look at this. Put him under the gas anyway.
Starting point is 00:17:02 Take off his pants. Your friends, we have last time this happened during Nuzlocke when he was falling asleep. You remember? We were recording when I took the drugs. I knew it was dead.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Yeah, that wasn't great. I also went out and checked out the new Luc Besson movie, Lucy. Wow, both of you saw that. That's weird. You saw Lucy too? Oh, was it you that? I told you that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:34 So my first question about Lucy is it better than Phenomenon starring John Travolta? I did not see Phenomenon starring John Travolta. Damn. Fuck. That movie's terrible. Amazing. So that's the thing here, right?
Starting point is 00:17:50 Lucy. I was saying to you that is it weird that the movie just looks like the trailer's like it's salt? It's woman that's killing everybody. But it's not that at all. This is probably destined to be classic.
Starting point is 00:18:06 It is bad. It is not good. It is terrible. When Matt told me that Luc Besson is not having a hot streak these days. Not having a hot streak.
Starting point is 00:18:22 The only thing is that he produced Taken 1 and 2. It hasn't directed anything of like merit or positive praise since 5th Element. 5th Element was a cult thing and then when it came out it jumped on it. You know?
Starting point is 00:18:38 It's getting mixed reviews because some people are on the side of this is so bad shit that I'm on board. But like it basically tries to do things too smart for the writers and directors. So they needed to use more than 10%
Starting point is 00:18:54 of their brain. Exactly. But they weren't. It's whenever you see fiction where they introduce a... Is that a line in the movie? That's the premise. The 10% of your brain shit. Lucy can use more. That's the premise.
Starting point is 00:19:10 The whole premise of the movie is she can use more than 10% of her brain. Like every human that exists. That's besides the point. Don't point out the fact that that's been proven to be bullshit. It was proven to be bullshit like 20 years ago. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:19:26 And they just keep on with it. Whenever they get like Morgan Freeman on camera to be the guy that's explaining the pseudo-science he's doing it in the most layman terms possible. To a university class. I can't handle that.
Starting point is 00:19:42 That was also in the other movie with Bradley Cooper. He takes that drug that makes him super good. Remember that? I forgot what it was called. He takes that drug and everyone's like oh geez why are you so good and that entire premise is also this drug unlocks the other 90% of your brain.
Starting point is 00:19:58 The places that it goes are so grand compared to the dumb origins of where it begins. And the thing is they put up, he came out and gave the script an explanation for what this movie is
Starting point is 00:20:14 when he was describing it as a pitch to people. I saw this page and I kind of fucking like oh my god I understand now. This is literally word verbatim from Luc Besson. This is the pitch. This is the pitch. One page. Half a paragraph.
Starting point is 00:20:30 This film is extremely visual. It's difficult to describe in words without running the risk of losing or boring the reader. So I have a simplified summary like a reader's guide in as few words as possible. The beginning is Leon the professional. The middle is inception. The end is 2001 a space audience.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Shut up! Shut your damn mouth! That's how you get something green lit. That's a very smooth progression Word for word from himself. And you fucking see it and now I understand why he said that but god damn does he not know how to fucking piece that together?
Starting point is 00:21:02 I think anyone would struggle to piece together that way. That sounds like all those piece of shit games that we play and you say to me Pat you know what word was used for this that you don't want to hear? Ambitious! That's
Starting point is 00:21:18 the most ambitious description of anything I've ever heard in my life. And some ideas in the movie in the hands of someone that you know what the fuck they were doing could be good, right? There were some concepts that could have worked but in general it was like
Starting point is 00:21:34 you took a premise that was way beyond your ability and you just exactly because you're trying to reach for whatever you don't understand and just make up an explanation and then whenever you realize it doesn't work you throw in a car chase. Jesus
Starting point is 00:21:50 How David Cage of you Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So Lucy I got the irony of that tagline considering this movie like fuck. That being said, Lucy dominated the fucking box office.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Look at it! I can explain to you why because this weekend you gave me a free pass, thank you for that ticket to go see the movie. Right? It was for any movie. For any movie. And we sat there and we were looking at and nothing else is on.
Starting point is 00:22:22 There's nothing to see. You know what? You probably would have scoffed at it but Hercules got better reviews than Lucy. Really? I will go see that one. Hercules is like it's dumb fun. Like if you like the Mummy movies go see Hercules. Okay. Because it's just we looked at all these posters but there's nothing to watch. I guess let's go see the loop
Starting point is 00:22:38 best song thing. I hear that guy's pretty good and I liked Leon the professional. Yeah, well right. And then he doesn't like Leon the professional. No one. No one. Okay, but who does like Leon the professional? The guys that made Onimusha. No! The response
Starting point is 00:22:54 is everyone! Everyone! I softballed that. Sorry, sorry. It was a confusing softball. I know, I screwed it up. I screwed it up to set up. You should have said it softly like everyone. Everyone?
Starting point is 00:23:10 Yeah. Okay. That's that. Now, why don't you guys tell me about the Destiny Beta? Well first, but before that, I wanted to segue from I think you were talking about something that its high concept is beyond the writer's
Starting point is 00:23:26 ability to deliver on. So, Leon, you were telling me that you've been keeping up with sword art. Yeah. Why? Did you catch up? No, I couldn't. Is this a segment now? Sure.
Starting point is 00:23:42 I was just like, you would just tell them. And now, living in the database with Liam and Pat. Database. Database. Database. Wow. Wow. That refuses to watch it.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Because I'm the only one that sees no merit in watching something that's still terrifying. No, you just need to watch the song. No, also that. The song with the lyrics in front of you. The database. I watched up to episode 4
Starting point is 00:24:14 and it's like, there's a new main character they introduced in this season and she is infinitely more interesting than any other character in the show. Yes, I'll believe that. And every time Kirito comes back on screen The original main character. She does something incredibly Mary Sue.
Starting point is 00:24:30 And it is at a point where I am just laughing. So willheartedly and ironically I don't think he's doing because the gimmicks they're playing are so blatant. That makes him such a Mary Sue. So there's this big thing where you can
Starting point is 00:24:46 transfer your character between MMOs. Which is a really cool idea actually. What an interesting premise. Exactly. So he gets to this MMO where everyone uses guns. You buy companies like money. Who to thunk it? He gets to this game where everyone's using guns
Starting point is 00:25:02 and he's like, but I want to use a sword. No, look, and he's amazing with the sword. Because he's practicing it. He's the main character. But prior to getting the sword he needs money. Shut up. Well, fuck this movie.
Starting point is 00:25:18 So she's like, yeah, you can get money for it. Why? Kirito, why is the name of the show SAO? That's the first MMO is sword art. The second MMO is Alphine and the third MMO is Gun Gale. So he needs to get money.
Starting point is 00:25:34 So there's this game that's extremely hard that nobody can beat. This minigame. And it's so tuned to his specific abilities that he's gathered. It's like you can see them writing it to the character. And then he jumps on this vehicle grabbing the girl by the hand
Starting point is 00:25:50 and drives this vehicle. And she's like, how can you ride this? They're so hard to ride. And he's like, because I used to play race. But he's got a motorcycle. He's got a motorcycle with a helmet in real life. He is such a Mary Sue. It's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:26:06 The new girl is... You're saying if this was completely its own thing? If Kirito was not in it, this might be fine, actually. But holy shit. Every time he's on screen, just That's what the writer said
Starting point is 00:26:22 when he was writing it. Fucking nothing. Eventually, I got to get you to stare into this abyss. No, I watched the intro and that was enough. No, that was Log Horizon. That's different. Different show entirely.
Starting point is 00:26:40 I'm not even going to do that. You watched like Devil May Cry 2 just to feel it. I told you the only way you guys can make me do that is if you actually trick me and not say in a facial conversation look at the sword art thing. No.
Starting point is 00:26:56 That's some clever way. Like that time I walked in here and what was that show? Oh, because we were doing the promo for Anime North. Queen's Blade. Oh, God. It was in Matt's favorites, so we just popped it over.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Yeah, it was like that. It's got that girl from What's His What's His. The samurai showdown. The one you like so much. Which girl? The one with the pseudo-mane outfit. Oh, the girl with the blades in Samurai showdown that was in Samurai Shrine
Starting point is 00:27:28 when we did the Fist of Constance. The one with the blade. Sure. I was going to segue differently. It's terrible. I was going to say... Did you read Seconds? Not yet.
Starting point is 00:27:44 He read Seconds. No downtime since we got back. Alright, so fuck it. Let's just talk about the Destiny Beta. It's pretty good. I'll talk about Seconds after. I had a lot of fun with that beta. Destiny shaping up to be a really good game. Not a fucking blow your pants off.
Starting point is 00:28:00 A smaller game than originally anticipated. A smaller game than originally anticipated. Much smaller. But despite that, still like 30 plus hours solid. It'll be... You guys got in there, you made your little character. I made a space warlock.
Starting point is 00:28:16 I was throwing space magic. I had a space robot girl who was talking shit. I also picked a robot. Yeah. Robots are cool. It's a fun game. It's Halo lands.
Starting point is 00:28:32 That's it. That's what it is. And if you're okay with that, fine. But if you expected it to be World of Warcraft, Halo, then you're in for a fucking rude disappointment. For sure. Rude awakening.
Starting point is 00:28:48 You're all convinced and going to be on board on day one? Day one. Cool, cool, cool. I was going to say seconds. Wow, what a really good comic that just super falters right near the end. Seconds is the new Brian Leo Malley book. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:29:04 When we went to Conor Bravo, I picked it up. I read it on the train. The space train that we were on. I read it on the plane. And then you guys also picked it up. Here's what you guys think. If you think it's the same thing as for me.
Starting point is 00:29:20 Where I was like, it's really good. Like the first half and then it kind of just goes off the rails. I thought the fourth and fifth sixths of the book were a wreck. Because I liked the ending. And I liked more the first half. They were erect.
Starting point is 00:29:36 A wreck. So the first half of the third act. The first half of the third act? Yeah, a bit more than the first half of the third act. Exactly. It just got messy. The word I used, I was like, this is messy. I have a bunch of ideas.
Starting point is 00:29:52 I need someone to help me put them in there. And it sucks because I adored the first everything up until then I adored it. And the ending was pretty R2. Trying not to set my expectations. No, absolutely. It's good though.
Starting point is 00:30:08 It's a shame that it's not. Again, I did see the Con Bravo guy. He did a little post and he was basically saying it's a lot more like Lost at Sea than it is like Scott Pilgrim. So if you're a fan of Lost at Sea you'll probably be more
Starting point is 00:30:24 prepared. I know what you're saying, but it's still messy. I haven't read Lost at Sea and you're telling me it's a lot different than Scott Pilgrim. But when I read Seconds I'm like, it wasn't all that much different from Scott Pilgrim to me with how the characters speak. Especially the main characters.
Starting point is 00:30:40 That's like a Kevin Smith or Tarantino thing. Like Brian Lee is never not going to sound like Brian Lee. It's like the main character of Seconds is almost indistinguishable from Scott. It's the same manic whatever. Weird hipster.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Funny character, but has almost less depth than Scott. Almost an incredible thing. But Scott's a black hole of anti-death. He's one book. As opposed to Scott's six.
Starting point is 00:31:12 Unrelated but related. Did you see that picture of Michael Sarah as Jotaro dodging the kiss from the girl in the movie that he's in by any chance? It's a hilarious thing. It sounds great. He and his co-star in this movie were fooling around
Starting point is 00:31:28 and she tries to kiss him and he leans way the fuck over. He's almost at a 90 degree angle like this and his face is just like, and someone just put a hat on it. It's hilarious. I think I'm going to hold on to really good. I'll find it so that the people listening to the
Starting point is 00:31:44 podcast can also hear us find me in it. The only other thing I really did this week of like significance. Besides cooking up a storm which was really fun for the stream was I played Oddworld which just came out. What an impeccable port.
Starting point is 00:32:00 It's like a full remake of the game. Did they fix the difficulty? Yeah. The normal difficulty of the old one is hard now and there's a normal and an easy of the best remake I've ever played. It is so above and on.
Starting point is 00:32:16 It fixes things. It fixes things. It makes everything better. That's a really funny picture. It fixes things, makes it better. It plays smoother. It looks better. It sounds better. Nothing about it is worse
Starting point is 00:32:32 than the old one. For those of you listening at home if you type in Michael, Sarah, Jotaro, it's the first result. Perfect. If anyone likes platformers and would want a hard, very non-traditional kind of 2D platformer
Starting point is 00:32:48 It's very weird. You could say it's odd even. Oddworld, really fucking good. It's on PS4 now. The Vita and PS3 are coming out soon but I don't know about the other. Oddworld games, they're just like so fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:33:04 They're just like coming at you with weird shit and I really appreciate it. Can I pray to learn landing that The Stranger's Wrath remake gets that treatment too? If they ever do it? If they ever do it. They're doing Munch's Odyssey now.
Starting point is 00:33:20 To be fair, they already did that before. The crazy future one. I would love for a future remake of The Stranger's Wrath down the line for sure. With as many improvements to it as there are to this one. I'd be like Godlike.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Yeah, you're the best. Go play that game. Dude, aside from stuff that we've been doing for the channel and the Nuzlocke and all that and I played Destiny but I didn't do much of nothing this week. To be honest.
Starting point is 00:33:52 I didn't really watch anything. I just kind of was tired. Oh, I guess I can play anything even. No, you just sat in your pocket. I just read Gaff. But that's as good as playing games with it. It's the same thing.
Starting point is 00:34:09 I spent way too much time in those Last of Us threads about the shadow difference in the 30s and 60s. You would, you would. Like, what Lilium said just now. Earlier I was like, hey, did you know if you swap it down to 30, you get better shadows? Not knowing that that was just like
Starting point is 00:34:25 a loom up with this huge debunk. And it was debunked. That was way too passionate for something I don't really care about. And I'm constantly checking my phone to see if the second digital foundry or if you played what you said, if you played Last of Us at 33%
Starting point is 00:34:41 If you played the new Last of Us or if you played the original Last of Us you really only played half of the remake. And by that token if you play the PS4 version it's as good as two plates or the original. Because there's twice the frame rate. You only played it half.
Starting point is 00:34:57 There you go. So since you don't have much of a week I'm just going to jump in with a question. I don't want to jump in with a question. Are you going to talk about sword art? Are you going to play the game when it comes out later this month? I don't know. I keep hearing that that game is super awesome.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Exactly. But how much of the story is in there? It takes place between floors 70 and 100. Okay, do I have to play this? Oh my god, is this Tartarus? Is there a Tartarus in sword art? You should probably watch sword art! You should probably watch it.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Because you're going to have the same thing that happened to me where you're going to be like Oh, this premise! Oh, this is so good! Oh my god, everything's so bad! Oh, the premise! But do you get to play as Eggil? No, you play as Kirito.
Starting point is 00:35:45 But Kirito is like a custom character in this one. So whatever. I want to play as Eggil. I want to play more about sword art. But really it's good too. I guess I'll also like just how I can go. Liam, I have bought my tickets for Japan. Hey, awesome! Sick!
Starting point is 00:36:01 When are you going again? I'm leaving on the 27th of August. No, sorry, September, sorry. August! Because that would have been bad! That's really bad. Sorry, sorry, sorry. That would have been bad for two gigantic creatures.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Wow, awesome. That's really soon. So yeah, going to try to figure that shit out. Apparently, you actually need to know Japanese. So, a bit. I have just enough weeb to make my way. Can I give you some money to pick up some stuff for me?
Starting point is 00:36:33 That you missed? Absolutely. So now that that's out there, I guess I should come clean and say that I've also bought my tickets to Japan. Hey, hey, hey! Weave now for October 14th. We're the Nippon Bros. You'll just come back and
Starting point is 00:36:49 I'll be getting the fuck out of here. Man, you guys are really getting in there. Have fun in Cuba. For vacation. You... You beat us! You beat us? I got nothing, I got nothing.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Well, I hope you have a fucking good time. It's an awesome place. I really do hope I have a good time too. You will. Where are you staying? It's in Osaka and I can't wait to ride the ship. Osaka? Sure, absolutely. Hell yeah. Are you going to go downtown to Osaka Castle? Yeah, get in there with those giant Oni
Starting point is 00:37:21 and fucking stare at them and hope that they don't come to life like in my enemies. You want them to come to life! Sort of. You want it! But then Nagoya Gundam will save us all. You want Bishamontem to come down and say you're worthy! That would be amazing.
Starting point is 00:37:37 Are you going to try to go to Tokyo? Of course. I'm going to go there and I don't go to Akihabara. Then what the fuck am I doing? You need to go to Super Potato. I'm going to start a running gag that I will then finish and confuse the shop owner.
Starting point is 00:37:53 So Liam failed in his task. So it's up to Pat and Liam to actually... So now that Liam has failed... It's up to Pat and Liam. Sorry, it's up to Pat and Woolly to complete this task. Because I need to deliver an I stay in the suicide forest for a night video.
Starting point is 00:38:09 And get that for me. You've failed at that. It's a legal song. Guess what? I'm preemptively failing this task. Well, it's up to you. I'll walk around and then fucking bitch make a ghost.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Forgive me, motherfucker! As he gets arrested... By a really nervous Japanese cop. A lot of those older, deader ghosts will think you're like a scary monster. Like a scary monster. Like Japanese ghosts.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Please don't call me that. That makes me really uncomfortable, you guys. Excuse me, my son. Some Japanese ghost looks at Woolly. Yoroshiku, bitches! Some Japanese ghost looks at Woolly and he's like Gouki! Yeah, we'll see what's up.
Starting point is 00:38:59 We'll see what's up. Matt, I hear you saw a movie last night. I saw quite a few movies. I don't get it. I like that. That's pretty good. I hear you saw a movie last night with me. I didn't hear it me, because you started laughing.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Thank you for the ticket, by the way. I saw a bunch of movies this week since the Fantasia Film Festival. It's not too far. I saw a movie called The Honeymoon, which stars, I forget her name, Rose or something. The girl that played the Wild Lean in Game of Thrones.
Starting point is 00:39:33 And it's just a simple like, with my new fiancé, and then the guy wakes up one night and she's just sleepwalking in the forest and acting really weird. And the rest is like this dread-filled like, oh, what the fuck is happening here. Because she starts acting really weird.
Starting point is 00:39:49 She starts writing in a notebook over and over. My name is this. I'm married to him. That's the main goal. My name is this. I'm married to this guy. And he goes, why are you writing what you know? Nothing. And she's got weird
Starting point is 00:40:05 like, wounds on her inner thighs, like near her goodies. And he's like, what are those? And she's like, it's nothing. It's just, I got bit by, and it just goes on and on. It's not jump scares. It's just like, tension. What the fuck.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Unease. Just bad ending for everyone. Not a feel good. Was it a good movie? It was an incredible movie. I was like, holy shit, it's really good. And then I saw an Irish religious horror movie.
Starting point is 00:40:37 This one was a fucking trip. Called Let Us Pray. And it started Liam Cunningham, the guy that's also in Game of Thrones. This wasn't the zombie. It's the Davos movie. Yeah, he is the one that consults
Starting point is 00:40:53 Stanis. For those that don't remember his name because I never remember his name. Is there a priest in this movie? Is there just a giant potato with a cross around his neck? And it's got a bomb in it. Is there a bomb in it? Did someone put it there?
Starting point is 00:41:09 But the Game of Thrones guy plays basically death and he goes around as soon as someone gets near him all their sins flash through their minds and they're like, holy shit, what the fuck was that? And he's like, it's coming. It's coming. And then they put him in jail
Starting point is 00:41:25 with other convicts, like the little holding cells and he goes like this guy did this, this guy did this and he makes them all kill themselves and like, oh, won't get too much into this one but someone's head is killed with a police battering ram. That's a very punisher-esque
Starting point is 00:41:41 It's a very punisher-esque thing. It was pretty good. So wait, this villain is just a walking Shangogusatsu? Yeah, basically. Kind of. And he just goes around and I can't understand half the movie because them Irish and thick and fast.
Starting point is 00:41:57 They were round and round the re-road? Yes, they were round and round the re-road. Exactly. It was all pretty good and then, well, you got caught wind of this but Dead Snow 2 Red vs. Dead is probably one of the most fun zombie movies I've ever seen. And we've seen it all.
Starting point is 00:42:13 I heard the first one was a good time too. The first one was alright, nothing super special but still good and this one was like, okay, let's just, alright so Nazi zombies, that's the premise. Right, right. We've all heard of this. How do you defeat Nazi zombies? Well, you get the power to resurrect zombies yourself
Starting point is 00:42:29 and then you go up into the mountains of Russia and get the Russians that fought those Nazi zombies and bring them back. And the main Russian zombie is a seven foot tall red bearded guy and he has a knocked down fist fight with the head of the Nazi zombies
Starting point is 00:42:45 and the movie just gets mad capped. It's really fun. I was telling him about a scene where the main guy of the movie is fighting with the head of the Nazi zombie in a car and the Nazi zombie's arm gets cut off and he had to cut off his arm earlier because he got bit and he's like, this is the only way
Starting point is 00:43:01 to solve it. I won't get turned into a zombie. But these aren't shambling dumb zombies. They're cursed, undead guys. They're magic zombies. So they have a plan, they're smart, whatever and then he's in the hospital and his car crashes and then they go oh, you severed
Starting point is 00:43:17 your arm and really started to hear that yeah, where am I? And they go, but fortunately we found your severed arm in the car with you. It was weird, it was kind of pale but we just reattached it and he has the Nazi zombie's arm that's how he gets the power to resurrect things
Starting point is 00:43:33 and he can't control the arm. It's fucking liquid. Okay. Liquid and off spot and the arm starts punching and killing people he takes a scalpel, kills his doctor immediately and he goes I'm sorry, this isn't what it looks like
Starting point is 00:43:49 as his arm is slashing everyone. It's like a more elaborate version of Ash's hand. Yes, exactly. And a little ginger kid comes up to him later. Later in the night and goes, hey, what's that? That's a weird zombie arm. What are you doing? Oh my god, I'll take pictures of this and send it to the zombie group in the US
Starting point is 00:44:05 and they'll come check it out. Oh my god, it's still cool he's really annoying or whatever and he helps the guy escape and then the guy, the kid's like hey look at me, look at me. The guy just back hands the kid out of the building crashes through the wall and he looks down and he goes oh shit and he jumps down
Starting point is 00:44:21 there and then he starts to pound on the kid's chest like be alive and then he pounds the kid and then blood just splashes him and he goes oh and he's trying to put the organs back in and then the cops that are investigating all this stuff they look out the window and they see him
Starting point is 00:44:37 and he looks up and he's got only organs and he's like this isn't what it looks like it was just insanity I like the bit I like the bit you told me about where they siphon gas using a guy's fucking intestines
Starting point is 00:44:53 the nazi zombies see an old tank and then they're like there's a segment to be discovered here the nazi zombies find an old tank and they're like we need to get this filled up with fuel we want to use this for our nazi like you know terror squad here and then they take out innocent guys
Starting point is 00:45:09 intestines and put it in the gas tank of a car bring the other side of the intestines into the tank start sucking on the intestines to siphon it and they're like we're good to go that's the one place I think that I haven't seen zombies going yet
Starting point is 00:45:25 even though we're getting tired of them is good zombies on your side to help you and it was a high fight you know last samurai those types of two armies they had that really good and then me and Liam like you said
Starting point is 00:45:41 we saw the angry video game well you used last samurai as the example but that was actually a bunch of samurai running into bullets well there was one scene where guys had anyway yes you're right and those were muskets I do remember
Starting point is 00:45:57 they had a gallon gun but they all said muskets so we saw their video game their movie and me a lot of people were concerned because when you saw the trailer it was like alright he made the movie cool but this seems to have a lot of stuff that is not
Starting point is 00:46:13 associated with the angry like there's a little teenage sidekick there's a girl sidekick there's a two girl characters there's a two girl characters so yeah the first half hour is actually really good they had a sense of energy and it sets up the angry video game nerd his boss working at the game store was hilarious
Starting point is 00:46:29 his boss like the first half hour has a certain energy too and I'm like this is good and then it hits this middle portion and as soon as they introduce this military presence they're like what are you doing in this area landfill trying to find ET cartridges that's what it all kind of goes
Starting point is 00:46:45 like the movie's quality it's way overwritten with too many gross jokes and there actually was an intriguing almost too complex plot about why ET is so bad is because since it was made in five weeks they actually have the guy that created ET for the Atari 2600
Starting point is 00:47:01 show up in the movie explains the reason why it's so bad is because it's encoded with special messages and that's why the game is barely a game because it was just a delivery device for this ancient alien metal like that's what I mean that's what really happened?
Starting point is 00:47:17 that's what the movie explains that's the movie's narrative about why it's like that Microsoft has those messages now that would be true but there were like a lot of scenes and a lot of jokes that I thought were really really funny remember there was a one scene where
Starting point is 00:47:33 Angry Buddha getting into a rick's-up and he just had a hard playstation with the Nintendo exercise mat and a guy's downstairs listening and you go, Harder! Harder! Go faster! and then she gets down on all fours and she starts smacking her hands the dumbest sex joke ever
Starting point is 00:47:49 and then Angry Buddha goes, No, don't use your hands that's cheating he goes, No, I'm using my hands ow, ow, and it's just one of those dumb sex jokes but what? and it was somehow like actually and then when he wakes up the little like black teenage
Starting point is 00:48:05 sidekick kid goes, What? you're hanging out with your girlfriend now and then the angry gamer's in bed and he gets up and he goes oh, fuck off! and for some reason that was super funny I was like one of those like shuddering and trying to keep my laugh cause no one else in the theater loved it
Starting point is 00:48:21 you and I were looking at each other like oh, fuck off! oh, fuck off! it was really funny and but William mentioned there's two female characters that are not rich very well they're just bad characters and like
Starting point is 00:48:37 I'm not usually one to like stick up for this kind of thing but even though they make a meta-joke where they're like, now we're gonna have to have a cat fight you know what I'm saying? like no, just don't do it instead of making the meta-joke just make the meta-joke and then not do it or something
Starting point is 00:48:53 that's what I think we're terrible the whole way through the movie complete trash characters no, it was the worst cat fight I have ever seen shit but her death in hard ticket to Miami her death scene was her death scene was hilarious because
Starting point is 00:49:09 now we're just spoiling everything then I didn't say who's death scene there's two characters okay, there's a death scene that's hilarious we should know by now that Matt like just spoils shit it's barely a spoiler
Starting point is 00:49:25 it's not for me, it's for the audience get good at watching it's not out yet it actually is this is as out as it will be there's no Blu-ray thing anyway anyway
Starting point is 00:49:41 there was a cool kaiju sequence there's all this fun stuff it's clearly stuff that he loves and he wanted to put it in there and overall like at the end of the backer thing there was a calvocate of names to thank so what do you put during that scene
Starting point is 00:49:57 of the credits huge credits he just reviews ET for the Atari 2600 it was a great classic old style AVGN review of the game that made me laugh at several points it was a lot like Raiders of the Lost Ark of 2600 which is way more complicated
Starting point is 00:50:13 than an Atari 2600 game has any fucking right to be he actually makes totally valid points in his last little summary where ET's actually totally not the worst game ever it's complicated it's hard, it's frustrating but people say it's the worst game ever
Starting point is 00:50:29 there's stuff that was at least last week that's worse like Aquaman Aquaman there's interesting stuff in the movie I think there were kind of also what hurts it is the ability not to actually name games
Starting point is 00:50:45 or have companies you can't mention like Activision you can't mention LJN sorry they have fake footage of video games that are clearly games that he's played on can you say Sobi
Starting point is 00:51:01 can you say Activision they don't work at GameStop they work at GameCops Famitendo no one ever says the word Nintendo or Sony or Microsoft they say Atari who's going to stop that?
Starting point is 00:51:17 yeah it was going to stop but like I enjoyed it overall but like it could use a medanine it could use some like snow it wasn't perfect but it was nice to see it are you just like internally like in mad at info games
Starting point is 00:51:33 right now? a little bit a little bit but I also remember because I heard the little little peep you made a second ago about like Jinger's in movies dying out more than black people or at a comparable level
Starting point is 00:51:49 would you say it's comparable? I don't like I said that and I feel like it's the case because I can't pull that many out but I have a feeling if you look at the percentage it's probably similar but they don't put Jinger's in movies
Starting point is 00:52:05 you know what you're wrong because if you take leprechaun back to the hood that's one Jinger killing every black guy on earth right? so what? so where's
Starting point is 00:52:21 the black slasher flick in Ireland? were all the children of the corn Jinger? no they're blonde blue eyes blonde blue eyes I want to say that maybe candy man went to Ireland at some point so the real question is
Starting point is 00:52:37 find Jinger's in movies I don't mean people with red hair either I mean Jinger the only one I can think of is Kirsten Dunst Dunst he's actually blonde great Emma Stone isn't
Starting point is 00:52:53 did you just watch Spider-Man? is that all you got? no I did not Emma Stone is a blonde too we're rare we're rare I'm a little rare the girls are coming
Starting point is 00:53:09 redhead girls are coming redhead guys not so much they get rid of us the yearly cullings the purge pat your argument would be that there are more Jinger deaths
Starting point is 00:53:25 but they're all off camera remember Armageddon in the scene in the beginning when all those buildings are exploding? all of them I'm literally thinking of Armageddon of course you don't want to miss a thing
Starting point is 00:53:43 so who's ready for creepy chicken portal holes? I am that shit's nuts it looks great in fact you made this happen he made this happen I don't know what the fuck they're talking about
Starting point is 00:53:59 introducing Lana the new character that's really scared of chickens of course that new Hyrule Warriors trailer with Lana having a portal open up and just like an army of flesh eating cuckoos
Starting point is 00:54:15 chasing her I can't believe they just threw in a character like that you know she's been announced for weeks right? I think since almost E3 she's been around for a bit there's Shia as well
Starting point is 00:54:31 Agatha being thrown into there Luto those are some pics but there's also Shia who's an original character it's like a cute chick that's the villain
Starting point is 00:54:47 I'm asked to get playable characters she's probably gonna be playable the trailer made it seem the enemies they're getting the same intro as the Hyrule Warriors but when you watch it so we're gonna get playable to your aim?
Starting point is 00:55:03 no he's not he's in the game but you're fighting him exactly but what Liam is saying is that bosses are playable in these games well because you're fighting army vs army it's never army vs boss character it's Tautau vs Lubu they're just on different sides
Starting point is 00:55:19 but we have seen the big Skyward Sword oh of course you're not gonna play as the the Demise whatever the big tall black whatever it's got a cool name actually it does have a cool name
Starting point is 00:55:35 what's the over under on Lubu being in this game I fucking hope that's gonna be the great could you imagine if the first words Link ever says our whole shit it's Lubu do not pursue Lubu
Starting point is 00:55:53 that trailer is just amazing so much going on and Link getting that whole new weapon that makes some suplex giant pillars when he pulls out the master sword he pulls out the master sword and it looks like he's already got another sword
Starting point is 00:56:09 on his back but you saw that in the trailer he's also got his regular soldier clothes he doesn't even have the tunic yeah normally he doesn't have the clothes he looks like a Templar so is he gonna have the master sword and the hero sword
Starting point is 00:56:25 well he's gonna start with the hero sword presumably and the goddess blade that's gonna be nuts man I don't know if he's ever gonna do a wield he could but he has to start with the normal one and then get the master sword as his tradition
Starting point is 00:56:41 that being said with all these weird outside picks like Princess Ruto and Darunian it's like just fucking announced Gruus already Gruus has attacked and had more combat prowess than Princess Ruto or Darunia you need to write you need to write to the White House
Starting point is 00:56:57 and get petitions signed you know what I think Obama would support this I'm probably pretty alone on this one but I really want Ralph from Oracle of Ages to be in who is like your rival character for the game kind of and he's got a sword and a hat as well
Starting point is 00:57:13 but we notice that of all the dimensions they jump around I could see them pulling I could see them pulling I wouldn't have heard neither of them the fucking the item guy from Link to Live Between Worlds what's his name
Starting point is 00:57:29 he looks like a nabbit I could see that guy being thrown as a little playable character with a joke moveset of all those weapons maybe this is dumb and I haven't been following this game as closely as I could have but has Ganon showed up yet?
Starting point is 00:57:45 not yet not this game if there's no Ganon in this door that's the big final reveal most likely of these Virgil we're doing a setup to all Zelda games and the Triforce of Power is not in it come on
Starting point is 00:58:01 there's one Zelda there's one Zelda but she has all the different costumes oh yeah Sheik if you consider that playable Sheik her new costumes I hope that the feeling of using her in Smash translates into this
Starting point is 00:58:17 I doubt it of the loose high jumping you know what I mean the really fast ninja I doubt it I seriously doubt it do characters even have jumps in this one? I don't know I don't remember I can't remember if characters even have jumps in this one just let her feel like that
Starting point is 00:58:33 you know what just letting her feel like a cool ninja she is a cool ninja that's what she'll probably be but she uses the harp in this one do you see that the notes bring people in it's crazy
Starting point is 00:58:49 no man that trailer was fucking awesome it's where those gameplay trailers are just like five minutes of gameplay five minutes of content five minutes of new stuff how minute is it when your new character shows up and is humming the Zelda theme to herself Lana's great
Starting point is 00:59:05 what does that even mean Zelda theme exists in Zelda it does exist in you it does exist they play Zelda's lullaby in the gameplay like obviously it's just a fun reference but it does exist in universe remember when T people teach you the song
Starting point is 00:59:21 yes it does I mean obviously this is a send up but like I think it's so good she's great I can't wait to use her did you see her cube attacks they are fucking on it's the cube girl
Starting point is 00:59:37 reminds me of Tetris girl from Neo Geo the partner whatcha gonna call it the the website did it update and have any extra question marks on it did you have it checked
Starting point is 00:59:53 I haven't checked back to see but like now that they've announced I missed eight characters now I'm wondering if there's more boxes I'd be really surprised that this was the whole list no there's gonna be more it's picked people that
Starting point is 01:00:09 I think when we were talking about it we were like oh he can have this this and it's got like Sheik and all that but did anyone say Princess Ruto did anyone say Darunia no I didn't I fucking loved Darunia but all those guys that help you in Twilight Princess the bar
Starting point is 01:00:25 you'd have full of them and on the fucking flip side of the hype trailer coin you guys probably didn't click on the trailer for Firefly online oh I thought you were gonna say tech and stuff I thought you were gonna say tech and stuff is that the mobile game or whatever
Starting point is 01:00:43 it's gonna be on PC2 oh is it don't click on that trailer is it Pachenko it's the trailer that has to hire a bunch of people to talk to you about what they would do as a space captain
Starting point is 01:00:59 god damn it they're intercutting it with footage pretty good so they gotta pepper it up with this and then they actually got Nathan in there for a little bit at the end do you miss Firefly then just go see Firefly 2 Guardians of the Galaxy
Starting point is 01:01:19 it's got a raccoon in it it just guardians the galaxy it's just no critic has the balls to be like no it's Brad it's fucking 100% no now it's back up to us how did someone go and
Starting point is 01:01:35 redact his 98 to a 1 more people came over the scale in so that it came less than 1% I get it so it tilted it but that's too funny that it went back up tech and 7 I didn't even watch the full extended trailer
Starting point is 01:01:51 I just watched that trailer I am more and more willing to believe that Harada did not want to show tech and 7 at Evo because they originally planned for something else but a lot of people were saying oh no it sounded like a joke in his tone and I don't speak Japanese fluently
Starting point is 01:02:07 I don't speak it well at all but now that we've seen the shit trailer it's like you would not use such a shit teaser for a shit trailer for an upcoming release that's not going to show up yet this is the extended one we're talking about that has twice as much
Starting point is 01:02:23 footage as Evo it's actually twice as much but the same amount of nothing it's just more nothing so that just means that there should be also guys tech and cross street fighter not cancelled
Starting point is 01:02:39 show that instead I don't believe you it's not can do stop stop because if you know what I'll believe him when he says that and shows me a screen so when they tell you when he literally tells you
Starting point is 01:02:55 years ago we're going to tell you that this game exists but it's not happening for a very long time please forget about it when these words come out is that not good enough? it was then
Starting point is 01:03:11 but later when during all the tech and tag 2 interviews when Harada was asked what's going on tech and cross street fighters he said I don't want to talk about that right now we're pushing tech and tag 2 which is fair yes please ask us after
Starting point is 01:03:27 tech and tag 2 has come out then we will be ready to talk about tech and cross street fighter and now we are all the way over to tech and 7 and still no tech and cross street fighter because he's saying it's not cancelled there's still working on it but if you say
Starting point is 01:03:43 don't ask me now ask me later and I ask you later and you say I don't believe you anymore until you show me proof so the game's cancelled would you rather
Starting point is 01:03:59 a nothing trailer like you just got? no I'd rather nothing and then a week before the game comes out they announce it whatever we're moving forward exactly but I will say this the other piece of tech news that you guys should be happy about
Starting point is 01:04:15 is the fact that Harada came out and said I think I know exactly what this is and I am happy about it we're trying to make tech and 7 easy to approach because a lot of fans skipped TTTT because it was too difficult to learn two characters yes so you guys should have an angle in
Starting point is 01:04:31 on 7 I prefer one character and here's the thing when you actually do know 2 it makes it really good but tech and 7 you still have that wall to climb I agree with you
Starting point is 01:04:47 I prefer to have one fighter I agree and obviously if you're that good it would be way better I'm okay with learning multiple characters from Marvel even Street Fighter Cross Tekken but any Tekken character any of them has a move list
Starting point is 01:05:03 longer than 6 characters in those games and it is so hard to remember all the moves and Soul Calibur 5 was a step towards simplifying 3D games and Soul Calibur 5 kicks ass so the theory is tech and 7 is going to follow a similar approach
Starting point is 01:05:19 this is going to upset a lot of tech and faithfuls of course imagine if a bunch of really good normals were just gone but what I'm worried is that when it says the conclusion of the Mishima like bullshit whatever and it says unreal engine
Starting point is 01:05:35 just straight up and I'm like okay here's the thing is that I really think after tech and 5 after tech and 6 TTT of like 60 character rosters where I'm like fuck this I don't have the time I kinda wanted another
Starting point is 01:05:51 tech and 4 in the sense or a tech and 3 where it's like in terms of roster and changes and instead of having 60 characters you don't want the fucking pitchforks out your window I would have appreciated a next gen time warp
Starting point is 01:06:07 as well I wouldn't be surprised if we head in a MK10 direction with like that's what I want time jump cause tech and 3 was a time jump and it kicked ass that it was a time jump and like characters felt fresh even if they had
Starting point is 01:06:23 their movesets like they were like long and martial or whatever there's just new characters and I feel like this isn't going to be that I feel like it's going to be another 40 character roster but a big part of what assisted that really fond memory of tech and 3 was the fact that it was so much better
Starting point is 01:06:39 than tech and 2 which was great in its own right and then tech and 3 was like that perfect not arcade perfect but arcade feel perfect I guess it became the best selling fighting game of all time
Starting point is 01:06:55 I love it I think it's franchise but it doesn't matter the ultimate thing though is just going to be like whenever we see that character select screen then we'll know cause 7 might even be that they said Mishima things but we don't know what the roster is going to look like
Starting point is 01:07:11 so please get excited cross your fingers I'd rather have 20 awesome unique characters than 20 awesome unique characters and then another 20 that are all the same and you might get that here but just remember
Starting point is 01:07:27 that the other side of your opinion is a whole lot of people that like the people they like from the old series I totally understand that but there's like the last 3 games have been that where it's every single character and also tech and
Starting point is 01:07:43 what's the free to play one the free to play one is also the same cast but does I have all the characters it's the same kind of cast they're just missing some people no it's missing but I mean it's the same cast like it's not a future one it's not a past one
Starting point is 01:07:59 it's just missing a few and it's got vampire realm when Zazz will know because everyone wants Zazz the only character to be just straight up removed from Soul Calibur and you know what I didn't hate him I liked him the 3DS one also has the exact same cast
Starting point is 01:08:15 oh you mean tech and for the 3DS it already came out so like actually like the last 5 games the last 5 tech and games have all been that but Lars though we have this discussion you know it's the same thing with Street Fighter
Starting point is 01:08:31 and it's a difficult decision you make 3rd strike do you go for what people do you go for what the larger larger outside core wants or do you try to do both I'd say go half half I'd say 3rd strike went too far
Starting point is 01:08:47 and Street Fighter Street Fighter 4 didn't go far enough maybe New Generation went too far yeah New Generation went too far and Street Fighter 4 didn't go nearly far enough keep the meat I remember if New Generation wasn't even going to be that
Starting point is 01:09:03 New Generation wasn't even going to have Ryu Candidate but don't forget too that like it took fucking 10 years for us to feel so close to all those 3rd strike characters that we wanted them back because the time it passed at the time nobody liked 12
Starting point is 01:09:19 nobody liked any of them it was really really exciting I liked Q the minute I saw him sure but Q was in Street Fighter 2 it's true so the background of Ken's stage there he is he's wearing different costumes depending on
Starting point is 01:09:35 what version you're playing there he is I'm really excited for that even though I'm not like super technical into Tekken as much as I am with other fighting games I really hope that because it's on PS4 and Xbox One and PC it won't have fucking
Starting point is 01:09:51 framerate issues like Tekken Tag 2 did where like you do an attack with Raven and you just kill the game's framerate the game dynamically shifting resolution was like the king of the framerate rock solidness
Starting point is 01:10:07 in fighting games it matters it always matters fam last of us we already covered that little thing or whatever also the movie is now a little bit more concrete and word on the street
Starting point is 01:10:23 is they are talking to Aria from Game of Thrones to be Ellie wait it's not two original characters I was under the impression it's gonna be straight up the game and we already do know as well that there was plans
Starting point is 01:10:39 to change the ending for movie audiences and then Sam Raimi talked him out of it he basically said no don't change it I know I kind of burned all my goodwill with that
Starting point is 01:10:55 ultra cynical view of Tekken Cross Street Fighter but when you say this movie is more concrete do I need to pull up all the promo shots and huge ads and posters for the canon lynch movie? all I mean is that
Starting point is 01:11:11 this was like rumors of news and stuff it was like at the comic con they said this is a thing that's and here's some stuff about it there is a key difference too which is that this and the newly renewed announcement of the Uncharted film
Starting point is 01:11:27 are of course Sony Pictures so they actually have a bigger stake in it Sony Pictures literally has produced zero movies based on their video game this goes back like almost 10 years where a God of War movie was announced much the same way as this one
Starting point is 01:11:43 we have a director with like promo shots no promo shots a bit more concrete but with the Metal Gear thing Metal Gear still like 2 years past the point and I am so okay with that
Starting point is 01:11:59 the most concrete video game movie news was the Warcraft because Warcraft had a fucking panel and it remains in development and it has a release date one of the reasons I'm more willing to believe is I believe it was CES this year which I watch CES because I'm a nerd
Starting point is 01:12:15 don't bother watching it anyway I watched everyone's panel and Sony during their thing the pictures guy said we're going to work closer with our other groups within the company to get our films moving and it's such an
Starting point is 01:12:31 oversight I understand the bubble logic of like until it's in front of me it doesn't exist I know that's how you think about things I think though that a lot of these big name movie announces we're seeing that's somewhat myopic
Starting point is 01:12:47 like I didn't say it but you know yes but I think that a lot of these movies are like big name things they're announced they're happening and they're taking their fucking time with it because we're probably going to hit a place in maybe 2 to 3 years where we won't make comics
Starting point is 01:13:03 well video game movies are back and they'll be in and they'll be hot yeah watchdogs and they'll all be hitting in the same span of years I agree with that that being said do you honestly believe this movie has greater than a 50%
Starting point is 01:13:19 chance of actually coming I believe it has less I think it does I'd say I believe it's hovering around maybe at best 5% oh no I'm like at 30 that's really okay hey hey let me remind you
Starting point is 01:13:35 I've say hello didn't get a movie because the movie studios do not have enough faith in video games that being said I watched that being said that being said I watched the trailer
Starting point is 01:13:51 this week for Halo Nightfall produced by Ridley Scott like it just falls apart let me run that back this week I watched the trailer for Halo Nightfall produced by Ridley Scott this week but Halo here we go that's not the movie
Starting point is 01:14:07 yes you're right that estimate is really really low but I've watched a shit ton of game movies and they're all garbage but then I also kept up for years and years and years oh for every optioning
Starting point is 01:14:23 and we're gonna make this we're gonna make Metroid we're gonna make Uncharted with the fucking it's gonna be a rip off of the Nicholas Cage like National Tournament and it's like 99% of these announcements
Starting point is 01:14:39 go nowhere and they get as far as ads for movies that haven't even started reproduction we still we're not on the set or on the production team so we don't know the actual numbers so there's no point in actually like debating you know how far
Starting point is 01:14:55 along because it's like we'll figure it always has a chance of not happening also Sony has I mean the heavenly sword movie looks like they have the Sly Cooper one which is gonna be in theaters and they have the Ratchet and Clank Ratchet which is in theaters next spring that's why I raised it to 5%
Starting point is 01:15:11 over zero you know the difference do that Ratchet and Clank and Sly are super easy to make because you can say it's not based on a video game it's a dumb kid CG there's still a chance and it's very easy to get a movie company to go yeah okay
Starting point is 01:15:27 I'll bite that but if you go I have this thing about zombies it's based on a video game like it's so everything else and it's not the Ratchet movie and Sly movies it's Sony Pictures they just walk to them and say this is the last one Sony Pictures is still different than the Sony video games
Starting point is 01:15:43 they don't have to buy the license there's no fees it still costs more to make a movie than it does a video game the Ratchet movie and Sly movie are still dependent on mainframe being able to keep the lights on so the percentage of that coming out is still mainframe making those
Starting point is 01:16:01 I never heard that I didn't know that but it's Rainmaker mainframe oh right Rainmaker's a thing Barbie mainframe I'm like no back to where you were wait no their lights are on though Rainmaker's fine
Starting point is 01:16:17 they flicker now hey we also work for this company the Deus Ex movie was announced two years ago where is it it's not being made is where it is and so although actually never mind I'm like
Starting point is 01:16:33 we can't talk about it I have something that shows that it's actually going on probably like the reason why I'm so skeptical about this one in particular is that they're announcing it now they're saying we're working on it now and they put out the teaser photo
Starting point is 01:16:49 the promo shot and this is alongside like discussing casting with people you know what I mean it's like in conclusion no casting there's no pre-production so we don't know
Starting point is 01:17:05 but it sounds like they're getting serious about it but there's always a chance right here's what is a surefire shot you can go check out the live performance of The Last of Us by the actual actors themselves the voice actors you mean the voice actors that's super weird that's going to be happening with even the guy
Starting point is 01:17:21 who did perform to the theme they're live directed by what is this a stage show it's a weird Last of Us live performance of select scenes Last of Us turn off the dark I'm glad it's a select scenes
Starting point is 01:17:37 because then you got a big Troy Baker like hiding behind a bunch of people like barrier you know even if it was just the cut scenes it'd still be like and that's what it seems like it's going to be well they're going to have to chop that to fuck town and it's being directed by the guy you know
Starting point is 01:17:53 are they going to wear the little mocap ping pong balls unfortunately not but if they gave out free tickets for it and it fucking of course is full up immediately so it's going to be streamed live as well when's that
Starting point is 01:18:09 that's being streamed I'll tell you right now I would like everyone to do a little bit of homework either of you guys at home I want a Netflix and Xbox video this is the movie what? and I looked at the trailer and all it was
Starting point is 01:18:25 was CG footage of the game I have no idea what it is someone tell me what it is I researched it I couldn't find it it says it's like three hours long I think it's just the cut scenes I think, I don't know it's the weirdest thing
Starting point is 01:18:41 I thought it was a motion comic of the Udon translated manga the event oh by the way remember when Onamusha got optioned and the movie was going to come out of course the last of this
Starting point is 01:18:57 reading event is scheduled for Monday, July 28th that's today that's yesterday you're too late podcast listeners why didn't you listen to the podcast earlier for us in the past
Starting point is 01:19:13 that's literally tonight I can't see it though so there you go guys one night live it was really all for nothing it'll fucking be dude like Avenue Q
Starting point is 01:19:29 which you couldn't see unless you made your way out to Broadway or the Book of Mormon found their way into people's homes you with the tripod you not record our show here I'd be surprised if Sony didn't like this one everywhere
Starting point is 01:19:47 it's probably a cynical ploy to convince movie people to touch the project sorry just to finish off the video game movie thing there's more what video game movies need is a Spider-Man or an X-Men it needs that one big one that makes 100 million
Starting point is 01:20:05 then that's when they will be greener if last of us came out and was like last of us won't do it it could be that one but there's so many in production that we're gonna hit an H coming soon
Starting point is 01:20:21 they're not hitting production they're getting announced but they don't hit production that's the first stop they get into development hell in pre-production let's see how Halo Nightfall does there's a preview thingy you guys can check out apparently the wow movie has been entirely filmed
Starting point is 01:20:37 oh wow the wow movie is an avatar type thing where it takes it's been all filmed by mocap guys they just haven't done and it's been two years the development hell now is in post-production yeah okay
Starting point is 01:20:53 that's interesting whatcha gonna call it the uh uh uh uh uh speaking to avatar yeah well we can go there there's footage of the core of the game looks like a rising mod
Starting point is 01:21:09 when I saw her do the side dodge into like boost like tackle thing will the parry into like flick the sticks upward to launch them doesn't look like it's gonna be much more than a rail run to the next room fight the guys obviously like as was noted
Starting point is 01:21:25 in the IGN interview which was actually pretty good it's a digital title to the end it's a bloody palace you're doing core as bloody palace with Liam is that the game has to be constructed in a certain way when she's running on these
Starting point is 01:21:41 like pedestals to get up there needs to be wide open spaces for bending to even happen she can't be on a bridge cause the earth bending can't work or she can't be underwater cause then she can't fire bend so it's gotta be these very neutral
Starting point is 01:21:57 like you can do any bending that being said that'd be very easy to just put you here's the ice level in which fire bending doesn't work cause it's too cold true but then that is exactly a premise they have used in this current season
Starting point is 01:22:13 yeah no it is that's also not fun for video games that's not fun design here's the power you can't use in this place if you saw the IGN interview they're not gonna do that she's gonna gain the powers over time
Starting point is 01:22:29 but no what I mean is like imposing limitations on your there's a difference between imposing like limitations and not actually imposing those limitations and then just making you fail when you stray outside what they said was your powers are gonna be locked
Starting point is 01:22:45 away at first that being said I do not think it's gonna be a thing if you are in environment oh I don't think they will like you're gonna unlock them all and they're not gonna lock anymore after that they said in the interview you will play this game three times cause the first time
Starting point is 01:23:01 you cannot unlock everything the second play if you unlock everything and then once you've done that you unlock it's just extreme difficulty and then they said if you're a fan of platinum that's the one you wanna do and I imagine that's just gonna be
Starting point is 01:23:17 the hardest possible difficulty with no one between this cause why even well no there's casual normal one extreme but no but I mean extreme would represent one stop in for the climax that's actually what they said in the interview they said that's what
Starting point is 01:23:33 the difficulty would be considered sure and like we're gonna do two play-throughs of that in like a day does anyone know if that came out on youtube separately? I think someone from trailer or something but no that's what I don't like is that the only thing I don't like is that this was buried within an IGN
Starting point is 01:23:49 all day live stream but I think someone swore it out and repeated it that's cool but for Activision they put out a trailer of gameplay should happen that being said I think the IGN interview is actually pretty good no no it is but I'm worried about Paul Marketing not actually putting out a gameplay trailer
Starting point is 01:24:05 if it's not there yet so like late fall so like Paul Marketing for the core of game has been doing ok but Paul Marketing in one building over for Nickelodeon for the show has just shat his bed
Starting point is 01:24:21 and is just rolling around in it the worst fuck up I've ever seen for an ongoing show they televised the first episode did they not? they televised for season 3 they have televised it under the advertising banner that you have to watch it on TV because it's only gonna be on TV
Starting point is 01:24:37 that won't be putting it out online and all the Stinger ads at the end is like come back next week well you can only see it on TV and then they just decided to the no fuck it it's actually gonna be all digital and you can now no longer no longer watch it on TV
Starting point is 01:24:53 wow guess why cause the money's not there I was about to say the first part of that news actually makes me happy because when we're at the age where TV has to go only on television only on Nickelodeon exactly
Starting point is 01:25:09 how far is your back against the wall TV that you're like now you're like oh shit it's been that way for a long time where it's like only on channel it's never only on TV only on channel and it has been that for a while how is that such a ginormous fuck up
Starting point is 01:25:25 and why would they say it's only on TV like how could they go from that to then go there's no money here they saw the first episodes they did it seven episodes in wait it wasn't the first episode no they did it last week
Starting point is 01:25:41 well then your answers are even better they've seen the numbers and there has surely been a decline that's how season is starting but it went from you had to have whatever cable package you needed to get it Nickelodeon to that's no good anymore now you have to go
Starting point is 01:25:57 to get Amazon or any of the other video streaming things to see the rest of the season this is better I would love to be part of their customer service what a fucking mess put me on those phone lines except they said that it's gonna be all digital but they're still releasing it one episode a week
Starting point is 01:26:13 instead of all once despite them all being done that doesn't really bother me if it's done digitally it should be out today it doesn't really bother me because in like a month's time it won't matter anymore for the rest of my life it won't matter Netflix subscribes to that theory as well and God bless them for doing it
Starting point is 01:26:29 they're right you know it'll happen I watched the rest of the development one day one sitting in a house of cards game of blouse house of game of cards speaking of which I'm continuing to watch that I'm totally shit
Starting point is 01:26:45 eat it up and speaking of like shitting your bed while simultaneously not shitting your bed and doing a decent job so you're shroding your shit shrodingers bed shitter think about shitting your bed but then you think better of it
Starting point is 01:27:01 the observer changes the result don't look at the shit and it won't be there we got to take a look at the new Wonder Woman costume for the Zack Snyder movie and it matches what was brought to us from the guy that made
Starting point is 01:27:19 sucker punch all right even the lighting in the background is sucker punch why do you hate but it manages it manages to not be embarrassing here's the thing because I see the face you're making Liam but look up every other Wonder Woman costume
Starting point is 01:27:37 but did you see the comparison between that and the recent Wonder Woman porn movie costume I do at least that one has pants so that's an ongoing thing when Quicksilver showed up in X-Men Destiny
Starting point is 01:27:53 Days of Future the guy who was doing the porn parody threw it up on twitter like here's the character from Marvel here's my porn Quicksilver and his costume was amazing yeah when that woman
Starting point is 01:28:09 Gal Gadot Gal Gadot she throws coffee at you DC fans and Wonder Woman fans hate it this isn't a tough woman it should have been this one I was in Gina Carrero it should have been her
Starting point is 01:28:25 and they didn't like her just when it was announced and I saw just vitriol over this for a variety of reasons but my issue isn't really the costume it's just because I know who this is being brought by the shot itself is not that great it's like on a soundstage with the fart gas coming up behind her
Starting point is 01:28:41 it doesn't look impressive okay and this is where like me thinking about the whole movie and where this is going and whatnot that's where I totally disagree I think that is the best you could do with Wonder Woman not the best you could do no no no let me rephrase that
Starting point is 01:28:57 this is what you do it's the best Zack Snyder could do let me say it that's what you do where you don't change it so radically that all the traditional comic fans get mad upset and at the same time don't go with the traditional costume which is
Starting point is 01:29:13 way dumber you know you have to find the happy mood for me the problem is that this costume is like eh but also that it's going to be that movie but that's that's why I said that's why I meant troding her shit because it's like by the end of this segment it doesn't matter
Starting point is 01:29:29 because it's going in this fucking nothing movie to begin with no this is so not a nothing movie because it's hard for me to look at these decisions like oh here's Jason Momoa might be Aquaman might be also in the movie is this a Batman vs Superman
Starting point is 01:29:45 movie or is this it's Justice League we don't have time to do what Marvel Studios did it's too much work I think it's water testing later this is we're testing
Starting point is 01:30:01 the waters and establishing a little bit of what you're going to know as the Justice when Batman's costume they show Batman's costume like do you think this is going to be bad because here's as opposed to throwing all these characters at you for the first time in that Justice League
Starting point is 01:30:17 movie they can at least go we established them a bit before therefore this movie can get right into whatever that's why I don't like it because it's such a shortcut but that's what that's not putting your fault is what hunkers down a team movie though when you have to establish everybody and it takes you
Starting point is 01:30:33 4 or 5 minutes to get going absolutely like you're right but it's like still like I'd rather them do what Marvel Studios and all those things do I'd rather you just rip off that thing and try to do it because that's the way to do it but that means making an Aquaman solo movie and making
Starting point is 01:30:49 a Wonder Woman solo movie and so on and so forth so I have a good question I saw the photo I saw the picture it's fine I guess where's her where's her golden lasso that makes you tell the truth oh where the weapons no where's her golden lasso that makes you tell the truth you're not in the shot
Starting point is 01:31:05 and her invisible jet invisible jet is in front of her she is not invisible while writing and her sword and her shield and Amazonia no I don't care about that shit I care about the stuff that makes Wonder Woman look like the dumbest shit ever we're not in the shot so
Starting point is 01:31:21 what makes her look dumb it's invisible I wish she's not invisible when she flies in it I'm gonna fucking put money down that they're gonna be in the movie at the very least the lasso the plane was in the last Superman maybe in like Amazonian Taser form
Starting point is 01:31:37 I don't know but no that's stupid it's her main weapon no my problem is like Wonder Woman right Zack Snyder like weapon the Taser of Truth yeah I told you guys that like consistency with some sort of thing like whether you're making a video game
Starting point is 01:31:53 or whatever annoys me and I always say Onamusha since I talked about Donna Dream is that the story is presented in every type of story that can be delivered imaginable there's CG there's in-game cutscenes there's character portrait art with scrolling text there's giant black
Starting point is 01:32:09 walls with scrolling text and it changes whenever it works so Dark Knight right Batman movies all dark jury fine Superman let's do that because that's what Superman's about so they make Man of Steel it's dark and jury and depressing
Starting point is 01:32:25 so now you have this Batman it's also gonna be dark and depressing because that's what they've shown in every promo shot then you have Wonder Woman's costume it is the most inconsistent thing ever why not put Wonder Woman in that cool costume where she had like a leather jacket with like little golden
Starting point is 01:32:41 highlights and then like jeans that are cool boots because millions of fans don't want to see that there are not millions of Wonder Woman fans that is a lie you know what you know what you might be right
Starting point is 01:32:59 probably I don't know much about comics but I'm pretty sure that's a lie based on the sales figures but you know what though apparently just on and off the sales figures aren't what matter though
Starting point is 01:33:15 on and off the beat the Wonder Woman run in DC right now is like one of the best apparently that's one of the best runs I'm reading it I really like it it's great
Starting point is 01:33:31 new 52 things that actually turned out well no it's really good but I think like love or hate or feel indifferent to this new costume we seem to all pick up one of those four I'm a different to the costume but I sure don't like Wonder Woman
Starting point is 01:33:47 fair enough her plane is sick though I think we can all agree that we should probably just scrap this movie entirely yes and make Tetsuya Domura's Batman yeah
Starting point is 01:34:03 yeah we should the only person who's on the wrong side of this I'll say my piece right away fantastic awesome figure don't have it in any other all he's missing is a god damn keyplay
Starting point is 01:34:19 well to me I was gonna say I think it's a great design but it's clearly not based on Batman it's hilarious it's like it burst out laughing don't take it anywhere but like what a cool figure what a cool one on I'll agree with that
Starting point is 01:34:35 it's a super cool figure unless you pitched it as Batman even more beyond yeah it's not much more dumber than a nightfall Batman as real Batman with a big cyborg suit it's not that much dumber to me or Desert Commando Batman
Starting point is 01:34:51 yeah that's why it's a great figure I think I think my problem with it for the eyes on moment was that when I saw the title it said Nomura re-designs Batman and I put the image in my head
Starting point is 01:35:07 more Nomura than the version I had up in my head like he outdid his own like my imagination of how ridiculous it was and that just because you were expecting more faithfulness I was throwing it out entirely
Starting point is 01:35:23 which is what he did I didn't expect to see a Kingdom Hearts boss I did not expect that I expected it to be like not reigned in but for it to look like Batman I'll give you your answers because Square Enix has been making
Starting point is 01:35:39 variant DC figures for like the last year they did Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman Flash, Hawkeye Hawkman and they made more and along with those Batman's like right in the back of that Batman
Starting point is 01:35:55 there's all these other ones and they're exactly what you probably thought it would look like there's like a ninja Batman and he's ridiculous but he's not as ridiculous and Catwoman's up next yeah Catwoman also like there's a million some of them look good some of the designs I'm like that's a cool design and then some of them are like
Starting point is 01:36:11 just flash is ridiculous just copy paste I wouldn't mind seeing it used in another medium just because I'd like to see it moving of course yeah that's true but I know what you mean I understand the sentiment the fact that that's a series that was cool to me like that's fun
Starting point is 01:36:27 that's where it is going out because it's cool as figures well they're merchandising they're merchandising group has to work on some I'm not sure if you saw it Square Enix all of a sudden now it's we're making predator figures like if you told me 10 years ago Square Enix it says we're making predator products
Starting point is 01:36:43 I'd be like yeah sure people like their figures Square Enix is such a weird thing no definitely not oh speaking of figures you guys saw those in that and you got a post saying hey good job Square Enix for spoiling this Phantom Pain character
Starting point is 01:36:59 yeah I'm not one of the figures one of the figures is the Burning Man in the trailer it is abundantly clear who the Burning Man actually is I have not seen this there are zoomed up pictures that just show a detail that's like this is inconclusive
Starting point is 01:37:15 it could not be anyone else this is only this guy shit how are they not on top of that the figure is awesome the figure is great it's a little detail it's what I wanted it's what I wanted
Starting point is 01:37:31 so I'm not too upset but fuck what a mistake on the little card for the figure it just says like fireman flaming yeah this wasn't brought to like a gaming show or anything this was at a recent figure
Starting point is 01:37:47 it was a Comic Con all these figures are shown at Comic Con I thought it was like a new Wonderfest oh maybe it's Wonderfest but it might have been Comic Con and just someone cocked it someone just zoomed it honestly even from a zoomed out shot
Starting point is 01:38:03 the figure is detailed enough that you see an item or detail on the character and you just go well I'll just be ignoring that that being said it's not a huge no it's not a problem it's just the fact
Starting point is 01:38:19 well just based on the way you guys are talking you know exactly who they are it's exactly who you thought it was it's exactly who you thought it was it's exactly who you thought it was this is what I would actually now consider a spoiler and I won't say anything
Starting point is 01:38:35 so these are things that I know that I should not say saying some horrible character a one of two dying isn't that big of a deal I don't think I would consider any character dead at the spoiler you would not in this case I'm on that slide
Starting point is 01:38:51 all the time you might wake up dead tomorrow you know what we mean no I don't that exchange sums up Matt in a fucking nutshell you're gonna just hear the bitchiness just in a nutshell
Starting point is 01:39:07 I'm not the one that started complaining get on bitchy though 15 big babies it's not for me man here's how we get you even more salty right now Simpsons cross family guy cross generation of irrelevance
Starting point is 01:39:23 actually I saw the clip and it's actually pretty good I watched the clip too I really appreciate their willingness to just throw the Cleveland show right the fuck underneath the bus who was in the back of the joke guy? who was that?
Starting point is 01:39:39 that's Bob from Bob's Burgers and I really appreciate Homer's the guy has a fucking formula like it's the strictest formula I could see and the setup completely failing
Starting point is 01:39:57 and then being exposed I appreciate them taking the shots at themselves I appreciate that the core plot of that episode is how Duff Beer was just ripped the fuck off by Patriot Ale
Starting point is 01:40:13 which is the family guy and it is the most thinly bailed metaphor possible what should we call it the trailer is like 5 minutes or so it's out on YouTube you can check it out now I still think though that they were forced into this corner
Starting point is 01:40:29 due to irrelevance it was one of those things where it's an inevitability but way down the road and here we are 15 seasons in way down the road and this happens before the Futurama crossover which would have been far better
Starting point is 01:40:45 but it would have sullied the hands of Futurama at this point Futurama's done until there's gonna be more until someone else picks up Futurama picture back up again Futurama's back you guys
Starting point is 01:41:01 like you would rather see than this I'd rather see a Roy Spinoff show oh my god I'd rather see that no one gets that no they do cause that was the whole thing about relevancy that they were making that
Starting point is 01:41:19 meta joke about saying usually when you bring in another character it's dad to like failing viewership and then Roy just walks in and goes hey everybody that being said Matt go watch the 5 minute thing I watched one minute of it
Starting point is 01:41:35 go go watch it cause I brought it up to you yesterday and you were like I'm not even going to watch it I watched it right after this I'm just not interested in this cause I'm not interested in Family Guy I'm not interested in the Simpsons anymore we watched it the other day and we had some giggles
Starting point is 01:41:51 do it as a curiosity thing I'll try you'll have something new to quote incessantly no I won't cause it won't be quotable oh it's true like the Simpsons movie wasn't even that quote I never saw the Simpsons movie that's even more like
Starting point is 01:42:07 air than I do sometimes when things are having a rough time not working at you just keep trying you know what you do you know what you should do and my comments do earlier make me think that we should all get one thing
Starting point is 01:42:23 over a time period that we can force everyone else to watch you got a card it's like wooly I force you to watch Sword Art Online you Liam's card is already spent because I'm going to
Starting point is 01:42:39 watch Madoka now I didn't push you into that one but you were present when that happened really as hard as other people who's doing this I'm keeping my card I'm keeping my card I'm forcing anyone to watch stuff they know their hate
Starting point is 01:42:55 cause I've been like wooly watch Hajime no Ippo and I just want you to watch it I'm never gonna give someone a force card and say watch Sword Art I need to share the pain just go over the fate of living in the database that's a different thing
Starting point is 01:43:11 just go over to his place and put it on the C-Wooly it works William wants to serve so podcast you go even if the one that I'm not in I'll listen to it and make sure if you go I start watching Sword Art you're getting a pay cut
Starting point is 01:43:27 I'm giving you a race not to watch but if you say I'm watching Sword Art but I'm also watching Ippo then everything's neutral if you just watch Ippo then we honestly need to get a big
Starting point is 01:43:45 gigantic like recommendation good bad list like watch this for the four of us just like recommend this cause it's good recommend this cause it's bad because dude we've had the discussion
Starting point is 01:44:01 that being said you just referenced Kamen Rider not too long ago and that's a thing that you would probably really like if you say I force you to watch this Kamen Rider series I'll do it I'm gonna watch Gaian soon so everyone's been asking me and I haven't brought it up
Starting point is 01:44:17 cause I've been saying I'm waiting for our mutual friend to not be so nuts busy at work so I can snatch it from him cause you know what I'm saying now we were playing a game the other day and I was like what is that from what does that even mean
Starting point is 01:44:33 it's all you really need it means something really awesome but what I was saying before was you know sometimes you gotta try again right and let's see if Adventure Times 3rd Rump is gonna be a charm because we've got Adventure Time
Starting point is 01:44:49 Nameless Kingdom or something yeah did I miss the announcement there's a 3rd Adventure Times game but this is like more positive details is this the Skyrim one no this is not the Skyrim one this is the JRPG we all won
Starting point is 01:45:05 he is rolling the trailer the secret of the Nameless Kingdom was announced at Comic Con this one is the full blown shameless link to the past game okay but who developed it wait for it but it's a different publisher that I think is handling it
Starting point is 01:45:21 I'm not sure actually it's linked to the past but it's also Zelda 1 could be okay but the point is it's just going full blown Zelda again but it's not D3 publisher no I'll give it a look I will also give it a look check out the trailer
Starting point is 01:45:37 this was announced what platforms are on probably everything again but like the last one had a weird platform set oh this is 3DS 360 PS3 and maybe PS4 I don't remember 3DS for sure
Starting point is 01:45:53 certainly there always is for these PS3 360 PC 3DS was the last one the first one on PC but not the first one because it was only on 3DS but one of these multi-platform license things
Starting point is 01:46:09 there's always a PC version of this shit out so you know again take a look like you said you're not going to be looking at much I'm not going to take a hard look expectations after the whatever dungeon are low which we never played we just saw
Starting point is 01:46:25 and we looked at the box for 3 seconds I mean like I I stated their hate train well and early from part 1 that first one's fine I think we're going to keep going and we're going to hit like now who's being cynical
Starting point is 01:46:41 but I'm not being cynical because I played it and you were wrong it's bad it's fine when your 3 hit combo can't hit anything in the game that's not good it's fine
Starting point is 01:46:57 when your 3 hit combo can't hit anything in the game really? I beat the game and I enjoyed it like where does this level of sudden understanding you didn't set your expectations low enough that's why cynicism is strong
Starting point is 01:47:13 forgive me for liking adventure time too much it's so bad mmmmmm flame princess is best princess oh we're starting waifu wars on adventure time and marcelline is the best let's start waifu wars
Starting point is 01:47:29 right now pat what you just said is the truth you are 100% right I agree with you remember when Finn got wrapped up like a big potato so they could hug
Starting point is 01:47:45 it's so cute to sing it's like the only other princess that could possibly be even close to fire princess is like breakfast princess and hot dog princess hot dog princess is amazing doctor princess is alright she's green even the moment she shows up bubblegum
Starting point is 01:48:01 just goes the route of yuki ko she's alone go stand over there please go stand over there long hair said pat bizarrely what's up with that yeah not gonna argue with that
Starting point is 01:48:17 here's a problem the adventure time game not a problem yet what's the problem woolly the guys that made banner saga are feeling kinda sad is this about the apple thing? I love what they say apple said
Starting point is 01:48:33 oh absolutely it's so nice to see that apple also feels that sentiment apple is feeling frustrated people do not want to pay for mobile according to the banner saga she ate apple you said hey everyone
Starting point is 01:48:49 race to the bottom then when they reached the bottom you said why are you guys all at the bottom they'll spend 600 bucks on an ipad 4 bucks on a coffee drop 20 on lunch but when it comes to spending 4 or 5 dollars on a game this is a life altering decision
Starting point is 01:49:05 I'm frustrated with that too apple spent 7 years curating or not curating not curating a marketplace in such a way that people were trained to not pay for games
Starting point is 01:49:21 on the store and it is so too late Nintendo and Capcom and all these people have been saying this and Square Enix despite all of their dirtbag shit in other areas
Starting point is 01:49:37 they were just jealous they were 100% right that the race to the bottom will end in disaster my eyes were opened really wide when I found out about the numbers on what the demographic
Starting point is 01:49:53 is like for people playing games on iOS and the massive massive number of people that are high school students with no credit cards just browsing the store and only looking in the free section is a huge chunk of that money
Starting point is 01:50:09 like right away two things but at the same time some of these people are people that wouldn't purchase it if it were unavailable to them but that's created a culture of free
Starting point is 01:50:25 and what percentage of these iOS or tablet users would have gone dedicated handheld if mobile hadn't been an option it's only a million units it's a huge chunk of money missing from dedicated handhelds so what happens then
Starting point is 01:50:41 with like XCOM and Broken Age where it's going to end up on the tablet alongside the others but the price of it on the regular platform is infinity times more than what people are willing to spend on
Starting point is 01:50:57 like what do you do they hedge most of their bets on the core audience because there is a core audience there and if you go to places like Touch Arcade and stuff you'll see that there's a huge core audience on mobile not as big as 3DS, not as big as Vita but there is a core audience there
Starting point is 01:51:13 and that's where games like Hitman Go can succeed where they place all the strengths of the touch device while still being a fantastic game of a $25 PC and so XCOM and Broken Age they just have to fight in that arena
Starting point is 01:51:29 for fucking good games you please take a look and also they only need to sell one sorry every other dollar game would need to sell 15 units to match the one unit so they need substantially less sales you made a storefront
Starting point is 01:51:45 but then they can just race to the bottom when they feel like it too you made a storefront and they've got a long way to fall you made a storefront in which you're allowed to say games that aren't free are free and then you made it so that it's so hard to find anything on it
Starting point is 01:52:01 that the best way to do it is to hit the most downloaded button which obviously skews towards free and then the games that are fantastic and are money based can only be reached
Starting point is 01:52:17 you can only reach knowledge of them through external sources other than the marketplace so for people just browsing their phones they might as well not even actually fucking exist and no shit this happened and I really feel like the free app of the week thing they run is also quite damaging
Starting point is 01:52:33 where they will take a game or whatever and they'll just make it free for a week and it's like you are actively seeking and encouraging this free culture of where you're literally taking a game a few weeks ago it was Assassin's Creed Pirates which is a game you pay money for
Starting point is 01:52:49 and it was just free and a few weeks ago on Amazon's Android Marketplace it was Sonic 2 just free I mean at the very when we look at it though it's a platform that's kind of blowing up on itself
Starting point is 01:53:05 it's so slow the easy comparison to make here in terms of dramatic cultural shifts towards buying habits due to weird price shit like that is your steam sales like steam sales were so good for so long it's not nearly as intense as the free to play
Starting point is 01:53:21 mobile culture but there's a culture on steam and PC gave me in general that's not worth paying full price for I'll wait 2-3 months for the inevitable sale never pay more than $20 for a video game right now that means said on PC it ends up working out differently
Starting point is 01:53:37 because when those sales happen because the market is smaller in general these games are accompanied with enormous boosts of new popularity for being on the front page to see exactly what I was telling Liam the other day like the fact that PSN is doing similar things
Starting point is 01:53:53 is giving a second life that gigantic that gigantic boost surge of popularity that you look at steam charts it continues long after the games not on sale is because not applicable to
Starting point is 01:54:09 the app store in which it's zero like there's nowhere where to go and we're talking about thousands of programs yeah as the technology that like
Starting point is 01:54:25 of phones hits parity with for playing games like these which it's going to have other platforms like it's not it's not gonna hit full parity but it'll be able to support games that are good enough for indie you know what I mean and that is gonna
Starting point is 01:54:41 this is already good enough for indie there are like excellent games on mobile that are fantastic by indie developers but it's just the lack of like fucking gumption to make good games and overlapping like combined with this free to play nonsense gets you this
Starting point is 01:54:57 mixture where you have just generic nothings priced at nothing encouraging and overlapping this whole thing is the giant problem that mobile is going to take like I want to say a decade to shake is that mobile games are garbage and they have no inherent
Starting point is 01:55:13 value of vast majority and that's the problem that axiom is true I'd say 95% of the time and that fucks the 5% that are worthwhile pieces of content let alone the other video game and like the control
Starting point is 01:55:29 the control issue is a big deal in terms of like touch controls suck for traditional quote unquote games and controllers for iOS or Android devices tend to be terrible plus they're hella inconvenient
Starting point is 01:55:45 and that's why I wanted to put this forward because it's like we know that the bed was made now everyone gets to sleep in it but nobody gets any blanket no everyone's got it there's thousands of developers at the edges with nothing
Starting point is 01:56:01 but how do you fix this I don't know you start by making it so you can't say free that's a start that's the start here's my dramatic change and this is going to sound
Starting point is 01:56:17 unworkable and crazy I'm shocked this is going to be ridiculous but maybe, just maybe oh my god it sounds just like matches now Apple should curate their store maybe they should actually curate their market
Starting point is 01:56:33 we have the Apple series quality denied things they do deny garbage they do have the Apple series quality they only deny stuff like to mature or like straight clones he means an actual
Starting point is 01:56:49 full on Nintendo's seal of quality did not like take everything off the store and force everybody to reapply do the purge spend 15 hours get rid of everything purge it all
Starting point is 01:57:05 make your marketplace good that's a bit much I think you can go through the market and pick and choose a lot of the bad ones leave everything in the past curate the store going forward and make the marketplace nuable over time
Starting point is 01:57:21 I was going to say that that's as insane as you said it would be but they would more likely go forward with a new phone release and like start fresh this is the new
Starting point is 01:57:37 standard put in place as opposed to going through the fucking but they need to cut off they need to cut off the plague leg when you go in there's two categories good games and there's 20 and then there's bad games
Starting point is 01:57:53 rest but no seriously even if you still let everything in there should be like prominent the primary featured spot on that store should be stuff that's actually vetted and you have to get your shit in
Starting point is 01:58:09 like you have to get it in for the console the primary spaces are vetted totally but it's not enough they are vetted it's only when you want to most download and stuff like that where it gets the most download is the most popular feature I know but you're saying something that's not true they do vet the top things
Starting point is 01:58:25 on their things and they have recommended ones by their people who do play them and you click yes this is a good list of recommended ones I mean they shouldn't you can't get on the store unless you're vetted here's your silver lining there's been a ton of revisions silver lining is that this is hilarious
Starting point is 01:58:41 that the obvious not being stated there's been a ton of revisions to Apple's App Store policy over the years recently which means they're working towards changing things and are willing to like do things to improve them
Starting point is 01:58:57 they're letting it rot Google and Apple understand that this is a problem what's that line from Deus Ex Human Revolution it's not the end of the world but you can see it from here and they're finally standing there with us
Starting point is 01:59:13 and they don't want to get there so hopefully they try I think they do realize it's a bubble and it sucks it'd be nice to get your marketplace to not be a lottery as long as it doesn't bleed and hurt
Starting point is 01:59:29 actual platform it won't they're totally separate worlds which is why we can continue to say this I'm really hating the amount of dedicated handheld devices that mobile has snatched I'm using the word
Starting point is 01:59:45 snatched because consumers have opted for a mobile device parents have given mobile devices to children rather than for men I gotta prepare myself for Japan he told you all that shit
Starting point is 02:00:01 walking up to these kids and just hitting the phones away like no, stop it exactly it's it's I'm scared that's a Godzilla movie right there
Starting point is 02:00:17 really walking around Tokyo smacking phones out of kids hands I'm scared of this I'm not going to be any more dedicated handheld devices there'll be at least one more Nintendo one yeah there'll probably be five more Nintendo ones
Starting point is 02:00:33 it'll be a sad day if that has to end because of mobile well luckily then we'll have our sort of online visors on and I can just go live in the database hey wrong show there you go
Starting point is 02:00:49 now you've got it you're practically watching it when I put these visors on I can see the bumper crop nerve gear god damn it I remember the stupid name don't they have a new one in the new season I forgot it's called that that's dumb bullshit

Starting point is 02:04:51 every month it starts at about 1337 a month and the theme always changes so who knows what it's going to be next time next time we'll be heroes to fight the previous month or it could be ducks could be ducks
Starting point is 02:05:07 I hope ducks is coming ducks are the villains of villains plague of gripes is like finally you've got little angry batman here best buds with joker Batman doesn't like it I don't want to be bat afloat that's fun stuff so once again
Starting point is 02:05:25 lootcrate.com slash super thanks a lot loot crate guys my ignorance on world war weaponry you didn't even pick the war what it was world war one
Starting point is 02:05:43 oh man a number for fear of accidentally saying three you had two to pick up I know and I'm not great with that I know my other history but I'm not great on the weapons it's kind of legendary at this point so
Starting point is 02:06:01 I'm just wondering is there a way maybe perhaps that I could educate myself on what that was like back then well you could just read a book but that's not fun
Starting point is 02:06:17 because I have a really short attention span well you know what Willie I believe you like video games I do like video games and I think there's a lot of war related video games out there for you where's this going what's going on with people no blood someone in the team
Starting point is 02:06:33 after a full day of dismembering people and whatever you need to calm down with some teen shit not that other teen shit what do you have in mind world of tanks I was going to say that the world war one
Starting point is 02:06:49 was the end of the romantic idea of the war when they brought in machines and it got metal and like and then you had mechanized death nice and you just start playing the butt rock gotta kill it
Starting point is 02:07:05 so Willie a tank is basically an old robot yeah that is an old gun gun now I'm on board for this shit apparently if you head over to playtanks.us it's a really good view
Starting point is 02:07:21 you can't fuzzle it's like you can play world of tanks for free I want to play with US tanks didn't these guys do like an anime crossover with girls in panzer which is about girls driving tanks I don't know
Starting point is 02:07:37 I'm sure they did that sounds awesome that was the thing that got me on board with this game actually so apparently apparently world of tanks has over 300 historically accurate tanks to educate my audience and I happen to know that it's not just
Starting point is 02:07:53 tanks like they have all the weird not tanks also half tracks and what's known as tank destroyers which are just guns on wheels they're covering several different nations like history of tanks
Starting point is 02:08:09 so there's a fuck ton of tanks in this thing and if you use the unique code friends you will get access to exclusive in game items there's a bunch of free content cool cool free stuff in the free game
Starting point is 02:08:25 I can get behind that so once again that's playtanks.us with promo code friends to play world of tanks and you know what I think I want some tank controls in my life I was going to say when we went to E3
Starting point is 02:08:41 there was a huge lineup and all these people were playing the thing and were like oh they're playing call of duty no they weren't playing this giant tournament there you go there was all these girls that knew shit about the tanks too girls like tanks confirmed girls like treads
Starting point is 02:08:57 this is what we're doing so once again head on down that's playtanks.us promo code friends thanks a lot world of tanks we're thinking tanks thanks for being awesome thanks for being old robots
Starting point is 02:09:17 self-loathing is just palpable it's letter time it's letter time it's letter time okay now I wish it was nap time I hope everyone
Starting point is 02:09:33 wrote a super good email for twitch suggestions at superbestfriendcast at gmail.com you mean between when you said it an hour ago? that's right so if you're a streamcast at gmail.com is the address
Starting point is 02:09:49 now is the time to delete and write a different question make sure you don't just close the tab because your gmail will save your draft you gotta go in and hold A the backspace button now you're ready to write a real question when are you guys gonna stream walking dead season 2?
Starting point is 02:10:05 that's a good question Matt please delete yourself and he's gone does that mean you can't make Cuba the recycling bin? yes yes it does so if you do delete your question
Starting point is 02:10:21 and then propose another one you might get an email sounding a little something like this Phil says no question this week just wanted to give a fuck you to woolly for that 8-bit remix of p-ditties I'll be missing you it actually made me cry during the nuzlocke stream awww that's great that's not a question
Starting point is 02:10:37 he said it was a shout out I guess it's not false advertising I didn't get to hear it because we didn't have the audio on it dude I'm tired I'm so drained that being said this was a lively podcast filled with arguments it was jovial
Starting point is 02:10:53 that is in fact what the super best friendcast is all about you're dumb no I'm dumb you're dumber expose what is this dumb Mark wants to know how's your mom?
Starting point is 02:11:09 there's a dead franchise that's not megaman and pick there's no other one what's the standout character to you from a dead franchise Samanosuke from Onamusha there's a there's god there's so many like
Starting point is 02:11:25 Michael Wilson from Metal Wolf Chaos Nathan Rad Spencer that's pretty dead I really like the whole cast of the world ends with you oh Dante it's not dead
Starting point is 02:11:41 punk's not dead Virgil then he's not coming back again I want to believe I guess since the last time they asked are you going to make another number here they won't let me at this evil publisher
Starting point is 02:11:57 I signed up with now that's not actually what he said it's what I know oh Lily I know who would have liked it I was always like actually a bit ant on it but the art style is pretty
Starting point is 02:12:13 but I was always a bit put off by the overly sexual I'm put off by all horrible I got one Kiryu Kazuma yeah sure fuck you Liam to you it is where you live it's dead on the earth you stand on
Starting point is 02:12:29 we'll fight you and then soon when you get on the plane it'll become alive again it'll become alive again when you get off the plane but I won't understand it and then you'll get back on the plane and it'll be dead again I'm gonna go to the stupid Don Quixote
Starting point is 02:12:45 do it enjoy it don't be an ad for the next year because it came on it Brett and a couple quite a few other people were just kind of asking Nuzlocke a lot of Nuzlocke questions came in really quick
Starting point is 02:13:01 no shit and who's the champion of the playthrough we said it on the video it's Ludacris Ludacris like super clutched it out Ludacris was ironically Kamina he was the Kinkatan
Starting point is 02:13:17 and then Kamina was weirdly Simon it didn't work out the way we thought it would wasn't Brock Lesnar dumb sword tattoo Matt says and Willie what the fuck
Starting point is 02:13:33 man the online player for the podcast is really bad now can you fix it please and then gives a big bug report as in like QA style and the answer is yes right gonna try to fix it you can download the podcast I have an alternate link for people who are having
Starting point is 02:13:49 there's just a straight up download for android link for people who are having trouble with it and the RSS feed is in there like what I do is I have an antenna pod what is this called antenna pod there's a podcast thing and I just type the RSS feed in there that's on your android but apologies for the growing pains
Starting point is 02:14:05 but it's also on itunes right it is on itunes as well and I still have the alt link for the old website with a different player and I'm not saying like fuck you for using the player I get that but it's like there are a plethora of other options
Starting point is 02:14:21 I definitely try to make that the case however I will do my best to try and fix it for you guys as soon as possible I'm sorry if you missed this question due to the podcast player yeah in which case I'm not sorry let's grab it he doesn't tell
Starting point is 02:14:37 you didn't win and that's followed me for a while Daniel Daniel says hey guys long time listener first time caller of the patent show we show featuring Upset, Paul and Leonard yeah that's us Upset, Paul and Leonard
Starting point is 02:14:53 I like that your Hulk ultimate destruction video reminded me of the immense butthurt I felt wow that's a new fucking question from radical entertainment being shut down because 2 million 2 million was not good enough for active blizzard
Starting point is 02:15:09 despite them hurting the sales due to them forcing the release forcing them to release prototype 2 at the same week as in Diablo 3 and also infamous they went again like prototype versus infamous and then prototype 2
Starting point is 02:15:25 wasn't it prototype 2 versus infamous they're against each other the first 2 and both and it was not fair because infamous is a way better game but they got confused for each other yes
Starting point is 02:15:41 they both had like incredibly similar premises titles titles as well and the same game what's the game I always confuse with Hayes, Liam you know the one you know what I'm talking about
Starting point is 02:15:57 we've been over this a couple times no it's space space shooter not halo time shift yeah time shift that's the one time shift fuck that game the box art is a metal face
Starting point is 02:16:13 with a yellow visor that's Hayes that's time shift but that's also Hayes but Hayes has a crack in the visor crack in the visor that's inversion inversion
Starting point is 02:16:29 being a butthurt prototype fanboy aside my question is what game studio being shut down has made you the most upset I remember answering this on a really early episode but I forget if it actually was this question I don't think it's fair for me to just say clover yeah because they kind of just
Starting point is 02:16:45 they instantly resurrected that's not true it took them a while they were resurrected you're right you're totally right it took a fucking while I remember not liking platinum games as a name when I first read it because I'm like this has nothing to do with flowers
Starting point is 02:17:01 yeah yeah you're over it like personally radical is a one of them bizarre creations like a dozen square annex teams well not teams sorry square
Starting point is 02:17:17 do they still make games? barely the best thing EA ever did I was kind of bummed by a big studio big big which was a Sony team that made Pursuit Force on the PSP
Starting point is 02:17:35 who made Sony closing down side Psygnosis Psygnosis that's a big one that's a fucking big one yeah Liverpool you know that one made me really sad
Starting point is 02:17:51 although I mean the renaming into Blank East West North Santa Monica whatever is almost the same thing Bioware Mythic no wait it's back to Mythic because Bioware fucked up no remember irrational
Starting point is 02:18:07 irrational was then or whatever then they switched it back to irrational definitely did Vigil go through something similar like that? no Vigil shut down you know what? Vigil that one hit me like a sack of bricks
Starting point is 02:18:23 because I was like people were just getting laid off and I was like are we still making this game? oh free radical free radical getting closed down not for no reason because Hayes is a huge commercial disaster yeah free radical Hayes is the shit
Starting point is 02:18:39 says corn music to me is like a religion and Hayes is the shit we came up with a new song and we think we really rocked it I know this is going to be a terrible idea but can we base a theme
Starting point is 02:18:59 month around that quote? I can't believe it I remember that all this time after all these like hot spots ago games that are associated with bands somehow it's a bad idea
Starting point is 02:19:15 god smack green jelly, maximum carnage any whatever spider-man game and Chad Kroger Chad Kroger no Dragon Ball Z and Creed you know exactly
Starting point is 02:19:33 what I'm talking about I wish I didn't Def Jam games it's gotta be that not rap I want that instead Brent how do you pronounce that?
Starting point is 02:19:49 Brent yeah Brent with a T it says they're best friends what is the most horrifying animal you can think of if it was fortified like zombie-ified
Starting point is 02:20:05 excluding dogs and flying birds excluding flying birds excluding zombie dogs and zombie birds I was going to say Canadian geese what animal should never be a zombie because that's just too fucking OP sharks is too easy hippopotamus
Starting point is 02:20:21 we were talking about that hippopotamus is a badass it would just be a tank there would be no stopping and there would be a lot of them except for guns elephants would just be as good but if you blow its limbs off
Starting point is 02:20:37 maybe but then it's still fucking coming at you also the deal with shooting hippopotamuses and elephants is that they're super thick maybe it's hippopotamon that's why things like the elephant gun were invented they're zombies but T-Rex like sci-fi and pop culture have made me immune to the fear
Starting point is 02:20:53 I disagree about hippos are still terrifying to me hippos are super dangerous but if they were zombies they would just fucking they wouldn't be that much different no they would fall apart too quickly under the hot sun of their environment yeah but
Starting point is 02:21:09 zombies are never actually in these type of environments they're always magic movie zombies like RE-style and also the rule the rule set for animals is wildly different for humans
Starting point is 02:21:25 because humans turn into slow shambling pieces and they just move at the same speed but animals are exactly the same bar their newfound invincibility and sometimes extra size like there was a there was a reasonable outbreak file too there was a mission and when she went to a zoo
Starting point is 02:21:41 and there was a zombie elephant there and it was invincible and couldn't be killed I always thought zombie snakes would be a bad one cause it's hard to stop a snake from biting you when it's coming at you that's pretty bad I would say zombie squirrels would be a problem
Starting point is 02:21:57 cause there's so many of them they're fast and if you try to have anyone actually hit a squirrel no they're too fast they're impossible my dog caught a squirrel once we were very proud of him tore that fucker apart if the squirrels like united and found the common cause
Starting point is 02:22:13 which is your brain you would all have different priorities in our lives if that were to come true no I don't think my priorities would actually change all that much I think I just have the wrong priorities now I saw pigeon on my balcony the other day it was bullshit
Starting point is 02:22:31 you went and punched him on it no but I screamed at it through my window I thought we had a fight to deal with them no I'm not ignoring the statue defecation and I don't drive it deals off what's coming up on the watch gentlemen
Starting point is 02:22:47 I'm really excited for a game called metrico which is coming out it's a platform it's a 2D platformer based on metrics wow so a lot of the game is like demographics?
Starting point is 02:23:03 stats a lot of the game is bars and moving stuff and they move based on stats that you don't know like say presses of the R button or amount of distance walked left will move a platform up
Starting point is 02:23:19 or something like that I think of the fact that I played championship manager long ago as one of the first things I had to test and I used to call that just go playing excel go play excel that's what that game is exactly
Starting point is 02:23:35 no this is a 2D platformer all the platforms and stuff move based on metrics and it's got a very high contrast art style solid color really neat platformer it was announced like a year and a half 2 years ago and it's just kind of been under the radar for a long time
Starting point is 02:23:51 and it's finally coming out on the 5th I think so like from what I've heard from people who played it IGN had a little hands on and they were like fucking good, fucking good game so I'm really excited to play that on the 5th and otherwise rogue legacy comes out tomorrow did you not play rogue legacy?
Starting point is 02:24:07 I played it and it was fucking crack and now the handheld version comes out I didn't even have to leave my crack because I was about to ask you, dude rogue legacy I played it and it was crack and tomorrow I will have my handheld cracked
Starting point is 02:24:23 like that is a port that I'm breathing down crack in your crack I wish that you get Chun Li with DL's powers that'd be great it does I always confuse rogue legacy with rogue galaxy rogue galaxy
Starting point is 02:24:39 completely different game that's what I'm looking forward to I'm looking forward to apparently this wonder woman run I hear it's really really good so I want to see what's going on with that yeah that's pretty much it
Starting point is 02:24:55 I'm seeing like I potentially say I might not be able to make it but there's another Fantasia movie which is Juon the beginning of the end that's like the 5th more Juon or 6th grudge in Japan I would love it to be
Starting point is 02:25:11 scary because like the first Japanese grudge is like one of the last things that truly was like oh god I'm scared I could not sleep that night when it was released like 12 years ago so it'd be cool if I would be like yeah cool they're back
Starting point is 02:25:27 and they're still creepy and this kid is hey the kid's 20 years old now right the original Juon kid but they can just grab another one put the makeup on and it'll be fine I just want to say I'm looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy shout outs
Starting point is 02:25:43 to Mike Zero Dude got in touch literally today Mike Zero Dude Reddit Mike Zero Dude the guy who's always the fastest on the post to post the stuff exactly he's gonna be heading out and he had a spare ticket and was like
Starting point is 02:25:59 I'm like yeah yeah yeah yeah thanks for inviting us for like thanks for inviting us we could have all you could have chopped the ticket in four you realize that they let you do that we could have made this work good job
Starting point is 02:26:15 someone hasn't read the bible and hasn't read the story about the baby that was gonna get split in half in the parable of the moms no that's a win-win because babies are bad because King Solomon had to decide which baby which mother would get the baby and then one mom is like
Starting point is 02:26:31 my baby give it to me and the other mom is like I want it too and he's like okay I'm gonna cut it in half and you each get a half and one mom is like no and the other mom's like yeah that's cool and he's like yo you're not the mother and then that was that I'm that second mom who's like yeah that's cool no one gets it
Starting point is 02:26:47 well yeah I'd rather you have no baby than I also have no baby you know what I envision a scenario where really you're wearing a giant trench coat and he's on your shoulders he's on your shoulders I'm on his and hats on top
Starting point is 02:27:03 and we're just a seven foot waving guy we have all of our heights add up hold on a second there's that one I didn't think of that in your flash game have you guys played that flash game where you pretend to be Hitler but Hitler's two kids
Starting point is 02:27:19 stacked on top of each other an accidental hitler what's it called something like that it's like quap but you're trying to paint and do battle plans as two kids on each other's shoulders so you use the left and right keys to move the bottom hitler
Starting point is 02:27:35 and you have to use the mouse to draw shit it's keeping the top one balanced and the hands going nuts I love these post quap games about just control being bullshit bad controls are the mechanic absolutely
Starting point is 02:27:51 cause you said flash game and it reminded me of a segment I forgot to do you can throw it in now cause maybe it'll be a thing do it fast the countdown to cnd segment is now a part of the podcast so today on the countdown to season the cyst we got super smash flash
Starting point is 02:28:07 version 0.9b I don't know if you guys have seen this it is a flash 2d version of smash brothers except it's got Ichigo, Goku and loopy this is a really old thing so I'm gonna give it infinite years
Starting point is 02:28:23 I will also give this infinite years the new version is out with even more season the cyst like including Isaac and all kinds of other shit chibi robo etc and it looks pretty nice how in depth you went with it
Starting point is 02:28:39 but I can't believe the lawsuit hasn't happened yet project m came out no smash thing has been cnd but this is not smash mod this is like oh no no I'm aware I played other similar titles in fact I may have played this one
Starting point is 02:28:55 but every time you press right or left on the character select screen you have a new company willing to drop a lawsuit on you I think it'll be okay flash gate flash gate flash gates are immune like have you been on new grasp 20 years
Starting point is 02:29:11 what are they doing to that character it's low I get behind this thank you zone it's all over your butt cheeks so that's what I have on the launch this week really for me I'm going to catch up on sword art
Starting point is 02:29:27 because I hate myself and as for video games I'm super excited for the last of us remaster coming out and we'll probably since you're getting good deals on it I'll probably play oh I'm getting a shit deal I don't care and I'll probably be playing a ton of that multiplayer
Starting point is 02:29:43 so if you're in there you might kill me have fun with that I guarantee it what's coming up on the channel the site that's coming up on the channel super friends is finishing this week and we definitely have some
Starting point is 02:29:59 super episodes there's an obvious there's an obvious but I want to make here but it's too obvious so I couldn't say that one but I want to say it no
Starting point is 02:30:15 you can't give it away on the day it goes up we can write a Facebook post with that obvious fun it's too much for now it'll have to stay anonymous and yeah just murdered and Dark Souls continuing
Starting point is 02:30:31 and probably nothing new on the horizon until maybe next week which is going to be the thing you already announced yeah but more or less that was just the con bravo thing which went up on video form for the whole world to see
Starting point is 02:30:47 yes but not a lot there's no traction for it so it's still we're hiding Ninja Turtles week don't say it we said it it's just that in my research stop that gets announced in the const
Starting point is 02:31:03 people don't pick on that you get to pop it a second time so we'll be playing with the ghost of Mack while he's in Cuba for Ninja Turtles week wow look, Kate Babe is destroyed destroyed forever yeah
Starting point is 02:31:19 we got a solid channel a solid pseudo ETA for the Nuzlocke are you targeting any time for getting that up on YouTube just for anyone who's wondering as soon as you tell me how to rip it Liam so soon
Starting point is 02:31:35 and as soon as I'm done with this podcast and I take five to just chill cause I know a lot of people are asking that like when, when, when check it out, the archive is up and I'm gonna grab it and put it in and as for the site in the channel I want to point out
Starting point is 02:31:51 this is my personal belief, you guys might disagree with me I am extremely excited for this week's Friday Night Fisticuffs sounds good extremely, sounds good yep, that I am it's gonna be a special one well, lots of feelings
Starting point is 02:32:07 and moments and salt this might be the saltiest F&F we will ever do maybe and now we all depart and then furiously start practicing the game
Starting point is 02:32:23 Liam already made plans to practice the game this is so unfair, I don't get that there's so much pride on the line there's no pride on the line I just want to play this I don't have any pride in it it's all been shamed out of me sure
Starting point is 02:32:39 that being said, well we were whatever no more anecdotes teasers though we'll be okay we're entering the new world of Friday Night Fisticuffs alright so we're all gonna go take naps
