Starting point is 00:00:00 Today's show is brought to us by a new sponsor, GlobalHyperNet.com. GlobalHyperNet.com? GlobalHyperNet.com? What is that, Billy? Not GlobalHyperNet.globalHyperNet.com. What is that? What is GlobalHyperNet.com? What can I do there?
Starting point is 00:00:22 Well, first of all, Matt, this might sound familiar to you. Because it sounds like I created this. Yeah, or Homer Simpson for that matter. So this is a straight up reference to an actual Simpsons joke. But GlobalHyperNet.com is a place where you can go to ask and answer questions, create and comment on forums, create and fill out surveys. So it's kind of like a Yahoo Answers survey monkey kind of thing. Okay, yeah, I said that weird.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Yeah, that totally says that now. And here's the thing, these guys, the script they wrote actually. This is just a really weird ad rule. Here's the actual read, right? Go for it. GlobalHyperNet.com is simple. No points, no best answers, no likes, no top users. You can create an anonymous user if you want.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Just create or look at whatever interests you. Want to know what Mamoru means? Ask. I still don't really know. Want to talk about how Two Snacks hasn't made a Two Best Sisters video in over a year? A year? Want to know exactly what percent of people got the good ending in Army Revelations 2? Create a survey.
Starting point is 00:01:33 That's the actual thing. That's the paper. The game is your email. They know us. So someone's been paying attention. And that someone is GlobalHyperNet.com. GlobalHyperNet. What a good name.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Do you want to go talk about other weird brand names such as the ProGear Megaspec or whatever? Again, Homer would be proud. Named closely for the CompuGlobalHyperMeganet, as you might recall. Hello, CompuGlobalHyperMeganet. Okay, but that's not the name. No, we don't want to confuse you. Once again, it's GlobalHyperNet.com. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:02:13 I don't know. Go there, ask what it is. You'll find out. We have the documentation, and we're scenarioing it like, what is it? It sounds like a mystery. I love this. GlobalHyperNet. Go to the site and then ask a question on the reform saying, what are you even?
Starting point is 00:02:33 And you'll get a variety of answers, I'm sure. From other people that are also there to ask that question. This is wonderful. All the cool kids are going. I love everything about this. We need more mystery sponsors. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:03:06 Why does Moonraker rock? It doesn't. But people think it does. Jaws is in it. That's cool. Okay, the Moonraker laser is really cool. Yes, but that's the one thing that the GoldenEye like original game was like, let's take this thing from Moonraker.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Let's excise the safe bit from this. Yeah. All I think about when I think of Moonraker. I know that's how. The only thing when you think of Moonraker is GoldenEye. And the good. That is in the gap. Yeah, whenever I think of Moonraker, all I can think of is how Moon lasers aren't as
Starting point is 00:03:36 cool as lasers pointed at the moon. Moon? And then I think about Jair. Or the moon pointing lasers at Earth. Yeah, I don't like that as much. But that makes sense. Yeah, I guess. There's a lot more lasers.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Point just right chair face on the moon. And then you fuck up and get jaw. The moon turning into a giant laser pointed at the Earth is pretty scary. Piccolo shooting lasers at the moon. Cathedral terror. Moon fighting Piccolo. Piccolo, wouldn't you blowing up the moon cause horrific catastrophes on Earth? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Whatever. Super Saiyan. Shut up. Shut up. Or war. No. Oh my God. What's your faux pas there?
Starting point is 00:04:18 Shadow Raiders. Shadow Raiders. Or planets. Or planets. I fucked up. Yeah, it's okay. I fucked up. Somebody doesn't care about mainframe entertainment.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Yeah. None anymore. I don't care. And that's anyone. You mean Rainmaker? No one cares. Don't give them the dignity. No.
Starting point is 00:04:34 They tried to switch it back, but don't give them the fucking dignity. Rainmaker still wants to fucking name your company. Christ. Anyway. Don't get me started. What a good way to start today's podcast. It's just like the feel baddest. Episode 91.
Starting point is 00:04:48 No, that was last week. 91. We're almost there. 91, huh? We're almost there. We're almost to the grand finale. 100. The last episode of the podcast.
Starting point is 00:04:56 It's all been building up. Exactly. This podcast is now brought to you by Colostomy Bag that we are all forced to wear. No. The episode 100 reveals that the entire podcast was just a work of some time. It was a worked shoot. It was a worked shoot. It was our pipe bomb.
Starting point is 00:05:16 It was a really long one. It lasted like two years, man. There you go. Oh, man. Everyone all right? A little sleepy. The warm weather is doing it. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:05:28 It's like summer feeling. It's summer. It's not summer either. It's spring. All the hot boys have been wearing all their booty shorts and I went out. Liam's dead. Liam's in full on sandals mode. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Liam looks like my cabana boy. I got a great new pair of sandals. It's the same pair as last year. Great. I was at a great new pair of sandals. Hey, Liam. Oh, okay. Liam, my grandpa asked, can he have his sandals back?
Starting point is 00:05:53 No. He cannot. He can fight me for them. They're not even cool styler sandals. They're comfy. I only ask that you fake the socks off before you put them on. That's all I want you to do. Yeah, you're not a samurai.
Starting point is 00:06:06 All right. Let's just start with the retcon. Oh, yeah. Before we even do our weeks. That is Mothman and Mike Zero Dude and everyone else reaching out in slow motion. Just trying to contact us during last week's podcast. Yeah. To tell us that steam backed down while we were recording the podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:31 And it wasn't like, hey, this story happened and then we moved on. We talked about it for like 20 minutes. Yeah. More than that. Now, granted, it might come back and all of our statements are valuable for any future discussions of this kind of thing. Yeah. So go back into the past and listen to the old podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:48 But he candidly apologizes for not understanding what it was doing. That statement that Gabe put out was awesome. It's like, oh man, we really fucked this up, didn't we? Whoops. I kind of find it hard to believe that. No one would have thought to see this coming though. Well, here's the thing. Gabe talks about it in the thing.
Starting point is 00:07:08 It's like, OK, how much money could we possibly make on this over time? Like what, $100,000? The amount of emails hitting their Al web server thing or whatever costs them like $3.5 million over the weekend. So there's no way that they thought this was going to happen. There's no way. Nobody makes up. If you made a fucking $3 million fuck up on the podcast, you would not go, oh, I knew
Starting point is 00:07:32 that was going to happen. Like they just, they handled it the way anyone should have. They handled it the way we do when we fuck up. It's just straight up, hey, yo, we fucked up. I don't recall us ever fucking, oh, you and I never did. No, we did. No, never, not us. Just golden children.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Never. Yeah. Never. Fuck up yesterday and all. Shut up, Willie. Good on them for reverting it, but never should have done it in the first place. It's the kind of thing where it's like, if people wouldn't have been as loud, they wouldn't have gone away with it.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah, and it's also just like, you know, do a little bit of research, talk to some people. They, like, I've maintained what I said last week was their lack of communication ahead of time. I would say that's the biggest problem like this, the fact that they were able to do it and then roll it back so fast, like a total lack of foresight with everything, with green light, with early access with this. Like no one, everyone there is either naive or hopelessly optimistic. A couple of board meetings or rather a couple of desk roles and that connected together.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Yeah. Hey, maybe we can let the community vote on games. What bad, what could go wrong? Oh shit. Oh, we're going to let people pit-target your mods. You know, everyone should, oh shit. Can't wait to play Skate Man. You can't wait to play Skate Man.
Starting point is 00:08:45 Skate Man. Skate Man. So, yeah, good on them for, you know, fucking rolling that back immediately. Yeah, they come in on Monday because they don't work on weekends apparently. They're like, no, hit the button. Hit the undo. Just, Pat, you might have caught this. Control Z.
Starting point is 00:08:58 Control Z. Did you see the economy problem Steam had over the weekend? No. Yes, that was really funny too. Where, at some point, Indian rupees, I think it was? No. Indonesia. Some Indonesian, whatever's, were equivalent to dollars for a little while.
Starting point is 00:09:15 What? So like one to one instead of one to three hundred or something. So the Steam virtual economy just collapsed. And a little bit back on track. And people that spent money on it mostly bought like trade-ins and little cards. So that just goes for more money. But they're rolling stuff. They caught it, they rolled it back.
Starting point is 00:09:36 That's pretty funny. Yeah, but this isn't like you discovering a gold farming glitch in an MMO. This is real dollars. Arguably, that's the same difference. I'm a certain level. You know, it's like they're all digital money. Entrepreneurings scumbags like got entire companies formed within that weekend. Yeah, I bet you.
Starting point is 00:09:58 You know what I mean? Like they got people together. Yeah, for sure. You know who really got themselves together? The fucking people who went out and bought new PS4s, made fresh accounts for sale. And are selling fresh accounts with fresh PS4s with PT on them. That's fresh. Fucking hats off.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Four thousand dollars. Six, seven, but hundred. It's been going up and up. Hey kids, if you want to experience PT, just watch our shitstorm video. It's a better way. Yeah, it encapsulates the frustration you would likely feel trying to get very likely. And guess what? One of our docket stories is the fact that what happens if you delete PT?
Starting point is 00:10:37 It's gone. No, you can go read out. Really? It's on your account. Dude, always. No, but it was as long as you say register that your account owns it. Here's the thing. It was iffy because the language was that the distribution period would be over.
Starting point is 00:10:51 It will be hosted forever. That's the Sony? It's TOS stuff for Sony. If you put something on there, it's their fuck. That was the fear that caused this. It was an irrational fear. So that never happened. That doesn't happen.
Starting point is 00:11:07 You've been back on Xbox 360. Afterburner, Ninja Turtles, games that got removed from the store. Oh no! I need to download Resheld again. I missed that gem. So if you got it originally, you could go through your history and read it. And it's always hosted. Good.
Starting point is 00:11:25 That's one thing about the digital economy that's going to be statical. Unless they discover that it has a Vita exploit in it, then they pull it down forever. But there's a slight difference between that which was just pulled because, well, why was Afterburner pulled? License reasons, I imagine. Okay, well, let's say Deadpool got pulled down. Which it did. License reasons.
Starting point is 00:11:48 No, no, I'm just using that as an example. That did. Could you download that again? Yes. That seems like... On my Vita, I can still download Marvel 3, but nobody can buy a new digital copy. Yeah, that's why when Marvel 3 was happening, I went out and got a PS3 copy and got the DLC for it right away.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Because now it's 3 days before. I don't even like Marvel 3, but I want to be able to play it. And I like to be able to play as all the characters. Yeah, it's a list of everything you've ever gotten and you just download again. Okay. Let's talk about the other... Are we skipping our weeks, though? No.
Starting point is 00:12:21 I'm just... Sorry, it just seemed like... We just tangented because, like, Liam killed... Correction. You killed two of my dockets. That's just that way. That's by talking about the steam bit. Well, we're on a good roll.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Let's just have a beautiful melange. Sure. Of stuff. Um, sure. Look it up, kids. It's a word. Phalange. A pulperie.
Starting point is 00:12:39 So, the other, like, I guess, communal thing that we can talk about week-wise is, hey, Age of Ultron. Yeah, that came out. That's true. So, uh, yeah. We all seen it. We all seen it. That opening scene.
Starting point is 00:12:51 That opening scene. That opening scene. God, I never laughed so hard in that opening scene when they're all, like, synced and jumping at the same time. It's sad. I laughed so hard. Okay, let's put a hard rule down here. That movie came out this weekend.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Yeah. We're going to be real life. We're not going to get too sick of it. We're going to be real life. We're not going to get too sick of it. Basically, limited to trailers. If you want to watch a very spoiler review, watch Comic Book Girl 19's 45-minute review. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:13:17 It's 45. That's awesome. Is she taking notes? Yeah. Like, good. The only thing better is Red Letter style. Our review is longer than the movie itself. And it's out the day after the movie.
Starting point is 00:13:29 What? So, yeah. Age of Ultron, right off the bat, opening on the equivalent of the team-up shot from the last movie. Yeah. Yeah. It's really, really smart because you already established everything, you already know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:13:46 And I feel like that shot in particular, where everyone's coming in from the side, it's your page two spread of a comic book. That's it. All it was missing is the yellow boxes with everyone's name next. Well, I had a big title of the art. Yeah. If you're not sure what we're talking about, it's in trailer two. It's the big, poor shot of trailer two.
Starting point is 00:14:06 That shot was in trailer two. And people were like, oh man, look at that shot, this is a comic book movie. I assume that was from the final battle. No. Like, that opening fight was not the final battle. In general, I thought really good, really enjoyable, again, one of the best MCU movies. I got this one was still better. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Me and Pat were talking about this, we were saying how a lot of people might think it's the first one is still better, because you were so flabbergasted that you were watching all these characters in the same thing. Yeah. Has this never happened before? But here's the thing about the first one, the newness did wear off, you're right. But the first one was, it was a magical thing because you had so much build up, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:54 It was the result of the entire phase one thing. Yeah. And this time around, it's like there was build up, but we were kind of used to it. It's not the same general blockbuster build up that we've all seen a million times before for any movie, but the build up to Avengers 1 was so unique because it was, the build up was movies. Exactly. And you see all these characters in their individual states and you get to see them
Starting point is 00:15:16 together and you're like, ah, you know, so this time around. There's a little bit of that too, with new characters having been given earlier roles in phase two, but it wasn't to nearly the same degree. No, of course not. The first movie I felt was missing, leading into this one, and they talk about little, they talk about little things that happened in Captain America Winter Soldier, like Nick Fury talks about a thing or two. But in this, I felt that there was a Hulk movie missing because they, as soon as this
Starting point is 00:15:44 movie starts, there's a whole storyline with the Hulk that's apparently been going on. Oh no, it's not missing from a different movie, it's missing from like the what, the 45 minutes to an hour? Yeah, maybe. The hour was kind of this. Because I kind of felt there were two weak parts in the movie, and one of them was, I thought the Hulk was, he had like a big, you know, kind of moment in the middle where he fought against somebody, but they had like a thing, he has a thing with Black Widow where
Starting point is 00:16:13 she can just control him now. That's something I've never, well, well by, which I've never heard of, you've ever heard of that before? I'm sure it exists in my account too, I feel like that's referencing something that existed before me. I guess it must because it felt so like, oh, this is a thing now. Like, if I had to take a guess, I feel like that's something Betty Ross probably had in something.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Well, in the Edward Norton movie, Betty Ross, it just hangs out with him in a dang-ass cave. Well or not. And then she just goes like, you know, calm down and he sleeps it off. Yeah. I had a funny talk with my girlfriend where we were talking about the older Hulk movies and she's like, oh, there were like other people that played him instead of Mark Ruffalo and I was like, yeah. I was like, really?
Starting point is 00:16:55 Two other guys. And we were like both trailers and we just sat and watched them and it was just like fucking dogs from The Angley Movie and then fucking the running down charge one-to-one with Abomination Scene with Edward Norton and stuff and it's like, and it was, but it's like when he hulks out as Edward Norton and you look at him and you're like, man, he doesn't look like the Hulk. No. Like Hulk looks like Mark Ruffalo when he could transform.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Yeah. And that in like the incredible version really didn't look like Edward Norton, you know? It looks more like the Professor. Yeah. You know what I mean? If anything. The Edward Norton movie still counts continuity-wise in the MCU because they had crossover between that General Ross and Iron Man and it's all phase one.
Starting point is 00:17:43 People forget about that. It counts. Even the people at Marvel are like, how do we do with the Hulk between this movie and the next one? We can't do another Hulk movie. Yeah. But Hulk got so much play and like it was a kid's role in the Hulk TV show. And in the first Avengers, he was like everyone loved him in that, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:02 I think they're realizing that Hulk plays best off of other characters. Yeah. That's the problem. He's a little one dimensional. Hulk is. Yeah. Who's man or no, but Hulk? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Definitely. So I want to talk about something that is spoiler-ish, I'm going to cap this to exactly like, let's say two minutes from now. Okay. Go. Okay. Go. All right.
Starting point is 00:18:28 So I'm so glad I dodged the trailers and I completely missed the fucking reveal. Yeah. I missed the two. Vision. Vision. Which is totally in trailers. Even if you didn't, they kept that really, really low. You remember seeing that big art of all the characters fighting a million Ultrons?
Starting point is 00:18:44 Vision was way in the back and you could not see the little ones. In some of the trailers, they removed character like Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch and Vision were not in that shot in early trailers. Like they were not even posited in. I don't think they ever even said his name in the movie. They did. They said it's like Ultron or my Vision. I had my Vision and then they referred to it.
Starting point is 00:19:04 Okay. Yeah. The Vision. The Vision. The one I left. But I totally didn't see the casting on it either. And I'm like, this is a character that's so old and silly looking. There's no way they'd bring him back with the cape and the colors.
Starting point is 00:19:15 But whoa. He did. And he gave him the texture up there. And I was like, yeah. I wasn't really a fan of his eyes and made him look kind of weird. I'd rather them be a little glowy or something. It felt like a dude. Every time he showed up, every time he showed up, I'd just hear him from the mystic of
Starting point is 00:19:32 the Vision. Vision. Yeah. Yeah. Tired man. Hairy arm. I wish they'd been on. So shout outs to not watching the trailers.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Yes. Shout outs to still having surprises in the theater. So now that we're on non-spoiler talk, like talking about the trailers, like this trailer in particular, I don't read these comic books, right? And my experience was I saw a trailer and said, what's that? And somebody said, blank. And that ends up being revealed 85% of the way through the movie. I was not supposed to know that.
Starting point is 00:20:09 And for me to instantly be able to get it within 10 seconds, like a person who doesn't even know about this shit, I just asked, oh yeah, what's that? Oh, it's this. Yeah, okay. Oh, okay. That must not be a big deal because they're showing it. No, it's a huge deal. Like what?
Starting point is 00:20:24 So, you know, clearly we've got our setup for the fucking the next 10 movies that are coming in. Yes, we have our next team of goobers. Like, there's a show in the movie where they show like where they're going in the next couple of movies. And you look at the line. It's like, what is this? The Great Lakes Avengers?
Starting point is 00:20:42 The Great Lakes, like North Michigan Avengers or something like this team. But every setup, too, is kind of like, even in the smallest way, they name drop a location that's going to be relevant for one of them. And you can extrapolate who's there. I was so wishing, like Liam just said, extrapolate. I was wishing for a certain character to show up when they went to a certain location. My tourists, of course. And I was like, just not even in costume, I want that guy just there, but just me.
Starting point is 00:21:09 What's going on in my country here? Of course. Just in a suit. What's going on? Okay, cool. See you. So you got that established. Fucking Black Widows stole Matt Murdock's weapons.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Yeah. The sticks. And I was looking at that and I was like, how's fucking Matt Murdock going to get an Avengers 3 now? He can't. Black Widow beat him out. No, he wins Civil War. With Taser versions.
Starting point is 00:21:32 I like how they keep giving Black Widow more stuff because she can't be shooting guns like she did in the first movie. Put a bow on her. Give her a bow. Give her a rocket launcher. Give her a cap. Yeah, no. What?
Starting point is 00:21:44 Give her a robot suit. Slowly turn her into Orchid. I love how, yeah. I love how everyone got to go a cap shoot. I was, I was trying, just trying to stumble away from that, but yeah. Like cap. And the shield. Cap doesn't deserve the shield.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Everyone needs a shield more than him. One of my favorite things about the first one was the fucking Chrono Trigger double tech. Between Iron Man and Cap. There was a lot of this here. And now they bring, they amp that up with multiple versions and I'm like more, more double tech. And not just with the shield.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Yeah. Other, do it. Other, do all of it. I want to see my variations on like fastball special. It was, there was X-Men vs. Street Fire. You should have just had the moves come up names. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Hyper combo. Like charging stars. Some of that was really good. I said I had two sort of problems and I kind of said the Hulk stuff seemed a little like yeah, something was cut out or something. But something that definitely was missing was the, I think the next thing you're going to say. Well no, the Thor stuff, like that's, I can, I can imagine them wanting to cut out.
Starting point is 00:22:42 Dude, that whole subplot was just cut out. That's, that was so, I just elbowed it just there for a second. There's a very rush. There's a rush storyline. But my main thing is that I didn't actually care for Ultron all that much in terms of his personality. And I'm like, oh, we have another quirky, I make jokes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Joss Whedon Billy. Yeah. I know what you mean. I know what you mean. Which is fine. But Loki was already kind of that and Loki's been in a couple of movies. So like the trailers for Ultron just made it seem like fucking evil badass quoting things. And it was just like, he made, like, I think the very first joke is that when he's kind
Starting point is 00:23:18 of revealed to Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver and they just kind of talked to him for a bit and he goes, what is it? You guys have children. Yes. The word escaped me. And I'm like, oh, this is where we're going. So here's the thing about the new age of superhero movies. You can't do generic evil villains anymore.
Starting point is 00:23:38 That is done with. Yeah. Evil laughter, right? But now it's so rare that it's unique. Which is why I'm hoping Dr. Doom is just Dr. fucking Doom. Yeah. But then you have to sit through a Fantastic Four movie. Yes.
Starting point is 00:23:53 However, I think my favorite Marvel villains of the whole loop is still Obadiah Stain. Oh, yeah. He's a weirdo. He's a weirdo. He's not. He's an old man. He's just an asshole. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:04 He's just a fucking piece of shit. But the way he talks is, you got to have a characterism in the way you talk. Yeah. You got to have something to, um, he's got a shot to like. He's got to be unique. You know what I'm saying? Lenore Joker. Oh, you know what?
Starting point is 00:24:17 I'm stupid because Thanos will be that. I'm sure. No. I don't see Thanos making jokes. No. But we've already seen that Thanos from Guardians of the Galaxy. Excuse me. Well, he's dying.
Starting point is 00:24:32 I'm dying. Finally. Thanos from Guardians of the Savings has a kind of persona to him that's not just evil Thanos wrong. He's kind of like, I've got a business to take care of and you got to do whatever you've got to do. But at least it was that they showed him. He's not like actually making a joke, but he's not going, but he's not going, he's
Starting point is 00:24:58 going to run for his way all over the screen. Yeah. But I was just, Ultron to me, when I, I, I like, this is more of a nostalgia thing. Whenever I saw him in a card or in a comic, it's just this robot with no, like the Ultron drones that he have looks more scary than the actual Ultron where they try to give him little eyeballs. They give him lips. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:20 No, the actual Ultron in the movie was just a fucking action figure. Like. The actual Ultron from the comic books. The face. The coolest face ever. He was the jack-o-lantern. And it makes you think his voice is like Starscream. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Like, I tried. Like just screaming all the time. No, I'm not saying the Ultron was like bad or I was like, it was just, it wasn't what I was kind of hoping for. I just wanted a death robot. That's like, I want to kill everything. And that's it. Which he kind of was.
Starting point is 00:25:47 But again, still making like, and people are saying, oh, it's cause he's a split personality from Tony Stark. And I go, wait, when, when was that said? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Like, no, he's model after Tony Stark. Remember someone said. Don't go too far into it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Like, it just sucked that he was a robot with all the flaws of a human. Yeah. Like, I wanted a fucking robot. I wanted Skynet. Kind of. That's what Terminator Genesis is for. No. No.
Starting point is 00:26:10 You're going to see that movie. I'm going to go see that movie. I'm forcing you all. You don't have to force me. I'll see it twice. No. I'll be unhappy. But that being said, I still think, again, one of the better MCs.
Starting point is 00:26:23 I give it a solid A minus. That's fucking great. I think the final sort of scene battle was better than the final scene battle of Avengers 1. It was more cohesive. There was more. I, I, because the final battle of Avengers 1 is destroy all these aliens that you never even got a clear look at.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Yeah. No, I just, I just respectfully disagree on that because I, I get it, but I lose. I mark out at the team up things. Yeah. And like. He was marking out real hard. The, the. I was marking out too.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Like the Hulk and Thor moment right on the back, the puny God moment, like all of those things in that finale, just, I was constantly losing my shape. So I, I got to still give it to part. There's, there's one thing about that final confrontation that I don't really know how to talk around, but I'll try and be careful. And it's a thematic thing. So I don't have to talk about specific events, but Ultron's like, it's a line of the trailer. It's like, you want to protect the world, but you don't want it to change.
Starting point is 00:27:20 And the whole plot is about like, dude, should we change? Yeah. Do things differently. So let me. And the situation given to them at the end of the movie is like, no, you have to change. You can't just win all the time. And then they totally win like no problem. And it's like, I feel like they build up all these stakes and I will never be able to walk
Starting point is 00:27:44 away from these stakes and then they walk away from the stakes and I'm like, oh, come on. The rules are that you defeat the villain physically, but he defeats you mentally. Yeah. Well, then either of those happen, like they just win. And it's like, no, the mental defeats there. I would have. There's some characters in particular.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Sure. But I would have much preferred a more Pyrrhic victory, like a bad win over the good win that we got. Yeah. And I found it a bit ridiculous. The other thing is I was talking about Ultron a little bit, but I was going to say something that remember in the middle of the movie, I'll just say Scarlet Witch does something and all the Avengers are broken up and they keep saying, we took some hits.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Yeah. We took some hits. Yeah. Ultron didn't do that. It was another character completely. So your main villain never actually did anything to you. Not as significant as. Like, yeah, Scarlet Witch is working for him, but the thing she did was really cool.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Do you think visually, all the Avengers have their balls, I was like, this is really neat. I like this. Because it's like, there's no proper easy way to explain Scarlet Witch's power to people in the movies. Oh, so yeah. My fiance asked, what could Scarlet Witch do? And I go, I think anything.
Starting point is 00:28:59 Yeah. Yeah. It basically does. Yeah. It's chaos magic and luck manipulation. Also, I love. I did not know about luck manipulation. That explains a lot.
Starting point is 00:29:09 I love how Elizabeth Olsen can totally put in the time, you know, I'll do an accent. I'll do a European accent. You see Scarlet Joe just going, fuck that, never doing it. No, no. I'm not a great accent. Yeah, two Russian women standing next to each other talking in a scene and one is just the fuck it. And the other's like, good, pretty good Russian accent, unlike her brother, who did not have
Starting point is 00:29:31 a pretty good Russian accent. But yeah. But yeah. Hami, another one. But also, I heard her. Romanov. And you're like, nope. And they even have little flashbacks of her as a kid in Russia and with no accent.
Starting point is 00:29:44 Dude, if you know what it is, it's fucking, it's, it's snake eater, whereas the Japanese snake voice actor forgot his name. Yeah. I feel it's good. Opska learns Russian because he wants to record the fucking game in Russian and Kojima's like, yeah, let's do it. And then every other actor is like, fuck you, then haters like, I'm going to growl it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:04 And like, oh, I'm fired. Literally. I also really, I also really preferred this Quicksilver to the X-Men. Yeah, me too. Me too. Like we all know X-Men Quicksilver got his awesome moment. But he's still so much cooler. But what I think of Tastes of Future Past, it's Quicksilver, all I can think about is
Starting point is 00:30:20 they had to write him out of the story because he breaks every scene that happens after that. Get out of here. What are we going to, what are we going to do? The stuff's happening at the White House, why don't you have Quicksilver just win? Not that different here. Yeah. A little bit. The last thing I want to say on it is, I really like how much play Arrow Man got.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Yeah. That's what the last thing I was going to say. That's what the last thing I was going to say is Hawkeye. The most apology for the first movie ever. Most improved character. Can't stand that rat-faced runner. Oh wait, no, I can now. The one that was great was that when Quicksilver runs by him, then Hawkeye just goes, oh, no
Starting point is 00:30:56 one would know, no one would know, oh yeah, that guy, oh, I loved him, oh, he's dead though. Painting Hawkeye as the old man of the team works perfectly. Well, I'm just blown away that he stole the show in terms of dialogue and Iron Man didn't. Yeah. Yeah. You know, Tony Stark took it back. You know what? I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Some writers, like one-liners. I'm not sure anyone agrees, but maybe I'm getting a little tired of Robert Downey as Tony because there was some jokes and I was just like, yep, heard this before. Okay, okay. I thought you were going to say he's getting really annoying in some characteristics. I wouldn't say annoying, but he's absolutely set up for Civil War. Yeah. The hard-headedness is totally set up.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Oh, yeah. No, the things he does in this movie are set up for the other Avengers. Like, are you fucking kidding me? There is a four and a half minute preview of Civil War somewhere in this movie. More or less. Somewhere, yeah. But just his general delivery is that, like, I know it's like everyone loves him, write him more lines, have him make us and Starky comment every three seconds.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Yeah, but it's been five movies. It's been five movies. So it's like I'm not like something gained hard of it, but like back him off a little bit because they're using him as a crutch. He got some good ones in, though. Yeah, no, for sure, but... I think he was outshone by another character that I didn't think was even going to be in the movie, and I'm so glad that he's going to be in more movies.
Starting point is 00:32:19 That was fun. Yeah, he was totally outshone. I don't actually know which one you mean. Can you dance around it? I can give you a charade description. Yes, okay. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, it's a character that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:33 I don't want to spoil that inclusion because it was my favorite part of the whole movie because that character is way better than everyone on the cast. There's still no scene that I like at all shop before. I really, really love the scene where they're all trying to lift the hammer. And when Cap nudges it, I just love that Cap nudges it. That scene in the trailer was... Yeah, because that needed to be it, right? That's a trailer scene, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:32:56 Yeah, so that's a great one. That's what made me want to see the movie's trailer scene and that scene. They fucking, they get it right. They get the comic book accuracy in there just a little bit, but then they add the real punchline later and it's like... Yeah, I would prefer a Marvel movie with more sitting around a table talking. I want Kevin Smith's Avengers. That's just what I want.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Well, guess what, right? Yeah. The Ultimates is basically a lot of that type of thing, which is where this reference is. Yeah, I just want... Do you remember Kevin Smith's pitch for Green Hornet? Yes. Or it is Kato and Green Hornet sitting on the fucking front of the car shooting his shit for like three hours and then crimes happen off-camera and they move off-camera and beat
Starting point is 00:33:37 the criminals and then walk back in the shot and it's just a single shot for the whole movie. I want that, but for the Avengers. People had balls, man. I want Kevin Smith's Superman. Yeah, and we want a Green Hornet. Iron Ant. Iron Ant, yeah. Iron Ant, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Anyway... Man, fucking Ant... Can we just talk about how that trailer probably gives away 99% of the movie? Yeah, but it also gives... That one is worse. I think it's worse. All the best shots. I have a strong suspicion that the best part of the entire movie is the punchline of that
Starting point is 00:34:11 trailer. I think... The Thomas The Taken... Yeah, but I think that they felt they needed to to make people go, look, see it's still fun and good, it's still interesting because the director that you wanted is not there. I think they needed to oversell it. I don't know if you guys have seen it, but there's a leaked bit of test footage of a fight scene with Ant-Man fighting two guys.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Yeah, it's really... From Edgar Wright's version. Yeah, that's the really, really weird one. And there's a trailer of Ant-Man, the last one, that has the same scene of him fighting those two guys, but of the new director, and you get to see and you're like, oh my god, Edgar Wright's version was going to be so much better. It's so much more of a dynamic, goofy shot. We got to wait and see what we're going to get, but it's just a little odd that this
Starting point is 00:34:50 is the end of phase three... Oh, phase two. You know? Yeah. It's the final phase two movie. And versus all, not Ultran, Thanos, go. It's also weird that they felt the need to... If you shuffle these movie releases around, you put Ant-Man before Avengers, you probably
Starting point is 00:35:05 could have had a more accurate Ultran origin than they do in Avengers 2. You could have if you went that way. If you went that way. But that means introducing Wifebeater. Sure. I don't know. But Ultran's actual origins in this movie were kind of like, I don't... Wow, this seems like a weird...
Starting point is 00:35:25 Shut up, it's a movie. It has to go. Yes, but if they had... They could have actually avoided that confusion by sticking with maybe the more... Yeah, the hangpim. The hangpim bit. You're not wrong. Whatever.
Starting point is 00:35:37 You know, you're right about it being like an odd one for the end of phase two, but like for 99% of moviegoers, it's not a bookend. It's just a continuation. Yeah, you're right. It's all a rich tapestry. Just pretend it's the first one on phase three. Makes no difference. It actually makes no difference.
Starting point is 00:35:50 And they've started making the preview of things in the middle of the credits instead of at the end. Yeah, we stayed all the fucking way and there was nothing. There's guys with signs in Age of Ultron line just saying, there is no post-credits scene. There's only like mid-credits, so don't stick around. Only stay for the first one. I think it was a good guy signed guy. But it's still hilarious when we saw people get up right away and walk.
Starting point is 00:36:18 And then they're just like, what? And we go away. How many do we need? To be fair, that mid-scene thing was nothing. Who's the most nothing one so far? I think Joss Whedon said, I don't even care for these. You think? It's like fucking 13 or 14 in.
Starting point is 00:36:32 Yeah, maybe not. But they're going to continue because they're what got people to start with. Do you think that's a request from theaters to get people out of the seats faster so they can clean the theaters? It's kind of hard to say. Maybe. Maybe. Plus the credits for Avengers 2, I imagine, are super long.
Starting point is 00:36:50 They're super long. Not Ubisoft long. Alright, let's move on. Let's move on. Let's get into a week's. What did you do this week, Willie? Oh, I got you. Okay, yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Tagged him. Okay, so I'll start out with, I beat Titan Souls. Yay. What did you think of that? Okay, so, you know what? Like, I actually, I went through that and I was thinking about what you were saying. And I respectfully disagree. You like walking around 50% of the time?
Starting point is 00:37:19 Well, here's the thing. Sorry, 70? Well, here's the thing. Actually, one, I timed it and none of them are actually longer than 15 seconds. They feel long, I find. At some point Willie said, well, Liam, unlike you, I never died. Oh, and he said that over and over again. No, well, I mean, for one thing, my full time on it was 418.
Starting point is 00:37:42 Yeah, it's not a super long game. So it's not a long game. But the long walk is like going from one area to another for the first time. But for every retry, none of them are longer than 15 seconds. But like, let me ballpark something to you. Out of that 4 hours and 18 minutes, how much time did you spend fighting the bosses? Maybe an hour, maybe two tops, like... Maybe, but I really, no, but it was more than that though.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Well, how long did you spend in shadow walking to the boss? Traveling to the area, right? How much? In what shadow? Shadow of the Colossus. Oh, Shadow of the Hedgehog. No, I know that's why the Colossus fights are super long. They are.
Starting point is 00:38:23 But if you're bad, well, they last a couple minutes. Yeah, and you get your retry. But like, the thing with this is just, because I remember when you were describing it, you were kind of saying like, there's like 45 seconds or something like that. That's up to is what I said. And they were all right there. Oh, it was just off memory. I wasn't timing. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:38:43 To me, I was like worried about that and I was, I didn't find those a problem. And I had a lot more fun with the encounters. And, you know, each encounter, you learn it in what, like two, three rounds? A couple swings, yeah. A couple swings and you kind of get it. All in all, fucking great. And the, there's a whole like, trending type of thing that you can get that makes it really cool to go back. And do the new game plus.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Sure, right. So, yeah, I think it set out to do what it does quite successfully and I enjoyed it fully. And I totally recommend you guys grab it because it's short and sweet. Okay. Okay. Do it. I tried started out to Chroma Swad. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:32 And that is a fucking fun game. It's interesting because like, it opens up with a director for like the Power Rangers type show they're doing. Just being a shitbag to everyone on the set. Interesting. And it's just like, oh my God. Yeah. This guy's name was to be fucking sublime.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Yeah. What's his name in the game? Like, Sabi. My, like something like E-My or something. It's a weird name. A weird name. And it's very much just like this. I feel like this used to be Saban, you know, or something weird like that.
Starting point is 00:40:09 That's pretty funny. Because he's such a shitter. And it's to the point where like the intro is really like everyone, all the stunt actors being like, fuck this. We're walking off set and starting our own show. Yeah. Okay. And that's how the adventure kind of goes and stuff.
Starting point is 00:40:24 And yeah, it delivers on everything at promise. Does that shitty director try and sue them for the name halfway through the game? Like, some stuff happens. But he basically is like the villain. Okay. That's cool. It's interesting. And the writing is so fucking weird.
Starting point is 00:40:40 That's the one thing about it. Is it good weird or bad weird? Mixed bag. Okay. You know what I mean? Sometimes good weird, sometimes bad weird. Like poorly translated from another language? Not even.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Not even. No, I mean like the, I think the team is Brazilian. Oh really? That's what I mean. I think the team is Brazilian. But yeah, just quirky. But like the title screen has a cool Sentai song sung in Japanese. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Including like all the... Have you seen their ads and stuff? Yeah. Of course. Of course. And they got someone to sing that title screen song that has all the right words in it, including Mamoru and everything. You got a Mamoru that...
Starting point is 00:41:18 Yeah, they knew what they were making for sure. So that's, I'm glad that delivered on what it's set out to be. You get a really cool character select thing where it's like set your squad to be what they want to be, customized characters, whatever the personalities. What fruit? And you got like, yeah, you got like one guy that's like, I'm really shitty at stunts and martial arts, but I'm a pretty boy and you'll always get fans. So you'll meet me, right?
Starting point is 00:41:43 Every episode you have with me in it will get a ton of fans. Wow. That's interesting. You know? That's blue then. Do you sacrifice a slot for this? Yeah. That's pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Fun stuff there. Tried to play PT with a girlfriend, just because she never, you know, played it. And so it was a great opportunity. I just downloaded it, set it up. She didn't make it through it. Couldn't handle it. That's the complete opposite experience that she walked through. Got to the point where the fridge is hanging.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Yeah. And that was it. She's like, nope, nope, not interested anymore. It's a scary fucking game. Yeah. I'm glad that she's existed. She put it down when the first grab with the head in the bag starts going. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:30 And then picked it back up and then the fridge and is like, no. I think when I went through it, I think I said how ours kind of petered out because trying to get the ending sequence. Yeah. You know what? It's a total crap shit. And we just went, well, this sucks. Quit out.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Yeah. Unfortunately, we didn't get that. It was, but that's the nature of the fucking game. You can get a trailer for this game that doesn't exist. Well, when we did it, it exists. Yeah, I know. But at this point in time, like there's no value in beating it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Kind of. Well, I mean, except for the experience itself. Yeah. Exactly. I think PT's fantastic. I'm happy. It's fantastic. And boy, do I hate playing it.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Yeah. Oh, really? I can't. I told you my girlfriend beat it for me while I was like crying in the corner because it had a baby. Yeah. It was like what he's telling, but reversed the roles. How many deaths were avoided by the cancellation of Silent Hill?
Starting point is 00:43:20 God. How many ruined pants? Ruin pants. Yeah. And it's funny. At least one. And those are mine. Oh.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Because after we stopped at that point, PS4 is perfect because you can just press the PS button and you get happiness music. Yeah. Kind of. It's safe. Everything's okay. Yeah. Just don't press it again.
Starting point is 00:43:42 It's way better than pause. Yeah. Yeah. Everything's peaceful again. My favorite scare is which is the banister person. Yeah. That one is like that scared the shit out of me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:56 Yeah. Because you don't even like it's just there. It's the strongest one in my opinion. I agree. Also the one with the radio where it's like look behind you. Yeah. Yeah. I said look behind you.
Starting point is 00:44:06 That fucking stuff. That freaked me the shit out. But anyway. I couldn't sleep man. That kept me awake for weeks. No, I'm serious. Yeah. You can ask my girlfriend next time you see her.
Starting point is 00:44:17 That kept me awake for weeks. It led to us having a candid discussion about the scary stuff and why to play scary things. Yeah. Why you want to subject yourself to this stuff. It's the moment that I discovered that I hate horror in my horror games. I like survival horror. You like survival horror. I like limited agency, not no agency.
Starting point is 00:44:37 Has horror gone too far? I like horror themes. I want horror theme park. To me it's the same as eating spicy food man. Yeah. You love it. You got to get in there. It fucking wrecks me.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Well remember when we played P.T. Everyone was just not for me. Remember when we did the P.T. video and both of you guys were like and I yell scared and then I immediately start laughing? Well because I always go you got me. It's fun. You got me. I can't believe you got me.
Starting point is 00:45:02 Man you were doing tough guy. Tough guy. I'm not scared man. And I was like come on. When I was a child. That's not the spirit of the video. When I was a small child I went to Niagara Falls and there was a fun house in there. And it was really scary.
Starting point is 00:45:16 And then I got freaked out. I was like four years old. And I tried to run over to emergency exit. And all the emergency exits were fake and had scares behind them. Like three in a row and I was freaked out so bad that the fucking staff had to come into the fun house and like walk me out through like the fucking actual service exit because it was so fucking freaked out. No thank you.
Starting point is 00:45:46 The safe word just makes it worse. Because we did we back at college my program. No thanks. One of our fundraisers was we converted one of the major rooms in the college into the dark room. Yeah I did that too. Yeah. And nobody and it was fun and everyone got a good kick out of it.
Starting point is 00:46:02 But nobody likes the fucking tough guy going in with the friends like oh what the fuck is this? Grabbing should I'm not scared. It's like just don't go on the ride then. That's the guy who died first in the horror movie. I mean I get what you're saying Matt. But like no I don't go oh it's not scary. Like what I remember I went to like three haunted houses on the road.
Starting point is 00:46:22 And he was terrified of them. Yeah. I was because there was guys that did that. He enjoyed the catharsis of the scare. I'm not sure if you remember that video but I didn't quite do that. I went oh god yeah. And then I said oh that's scary or whatever. I did go like yeah like what do you got or something.
Starting point is 00:46:39 He enjoys the back and forth of the expectation. There's a very clear what I'm saying is there a very clear distinction. We went to the haunted house thing and there was a guy that was in front saying like talking to the performers. Yo hey what's up. Yeah what are you doing here. Talking to them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:54 That's above the line. Ask over it. Absolutely. Because that's you're breaking the immersion of everyone involved. It's a way that you deal with like scares in this situation whereas Matt will get the scare. It'll hit 80 percent. He'll laugh and clear 60 percent of that back.
Starting point is 00:47:11 So he'll still be a little amped up but he'll mostly clear it out. All gets scared and it's just added. And it doesn't go. And then the next scare gets commutatively added to the fear meter until I'm shitting my pants. Which I have not actually done ever in my life but you know it's a good save. I'm getting older. I'm getting older.
Starting point is 00:47:32 My birthday was last week. Every year is a new attempt. I mean a new trial. A new attempt. No. I mean is there a law that determines that the closer the older you get in age the closer you are to shitting you. Yeah but the math for everyone is different.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Yeah. It's a different equation. It's a boy of an eye view. No. If you have like one of those perfect set up barn in the woods type things there should be a set up for oh like oh we got a douche bag on the premises. Okay initiate douche bag mode. How to get rid of him.
Starting point is 00:48:05 Yeah or not even get rid of him but like you put in the real shit. Yeah. Or like everyone that's in the ride gets silently escorted out and then he gets locked in there on his own and there's some shit you know. That reminds me you want to hear some backwards mental gymnastics that I have run for my own ass like a couple weeks after playing PT and being all terrified and shit. I was walking down Monkland. You know Monkland.
Starting point is 00:48:30 Yeah. Okay and you know those I was walking home and you know those like you could just take a left and just go down the scariest darkest path in the world. Sure. The alleys behind people's houses. Oh yeah. I was like PT's horrible but something bad can happen to you in a video game. Nothing bad will happen to me in real life.
Starting point is 00:48:50 So I ended up walking through those for like two hours getting mildly spookified and then got home was like oh that was fun and then could not play PT. Dude. Because that's how it breaks. You can die in a video game because that's what video games are like but nothing bad would ever happen to you in real life. And the conversation. I'll survive you've lasted this long with that attitude.
Starting point is 00:49:14 It's a bad attitude. The conversation that we had after playing it was just like I don't think ghosts are scary and because they don't do anything to you. They just shake things. But they can do things in games though. Right. They don't do anything and like what's really scary when you hear a noise in your house is not the idea that a ghost is possessing it but there's a man there waiting to do
Starting point is 00:49:35 something to you. Well that's never going to happen to me. Cutlass. To me. To me. To me. It'll never happen to me because I'm invincible and I'm the hero of my own life. So that's the real fear is real life not the spooky ethereal shit.
Starting point is 00:49:54 I haven't switched around. Like if I see a ghost it's like oh that's weird but you're going to do what? Pass through me and make me feel cold. No you'll be covered in goop. You'll get slimed. Yeah. Well that's it. You have to clean that up.
Starting point is 00:50:08 That's scary. That's scary. I've seen your apartment. I know you're scared of cleaning more. Sure. Speaking of ghosts I finished Friends on Netflix and I know that seems like that's a weird jump but it's not. That's a ghost story.
Starting point is 00:50:23 Because one of the strongest jokes in Friends is when Joey is on Pyramid the game show and the person is giving Joey like it's white and he's trying to do mayonnaise and he's trying to guess and he goes it's white and there's about two like items that he's trying to describe and Joey has the same answers for both. He just jumps between three and he goes paper snowball a ghost and then they're like no no next one and then he's like okay it says mayonnaise and he goes all right it's white and he goes paper snow a ghost and I laugh my ass off at this and this isn't the 10th season.
Starting point is 00:51:04 I got the spin off. The reason why is that like Friends is astonishingly consistent that when I looked at little Netflix descriptions I'm like that sounds awful. They did that. That's all I'm going to have a bad time of this 10th season but it's actually surprisingly consistent the entire series. Really quick I just want to say oh sorry as you're mentioning I remember I finally finished South Park in Rec and I remember you say that the end of that was like pretty nothing
Starting point is 00:51:34 right pretty straight and clean. It was just like here's what happened to everybody and that was it. And I agree but I also feel like I can't think of a single show that like was on TV or like that went for many seasons that had a special ending. It's always kind of like that and or worse you know what I mean. You mean like an entire last season set it up. It's the same walk wrapped up when Seinfeld wrapped up. The same deal.
Starting point is 00:52:00 It's all it's the same kind of TV ending. They're never really super great they're always just like and then it ended. I guess that's why like it's unique in that way but it took me a back because I'm so used to those types of endings in TV shows. So maybe initially I was kind of like yeah I'm not I'm not sure I feel about that but it is unique. Like no one else. Like the only one I can think of that went off with a giant ass bang was Firefly which
Starting point is 00:52:21 did a movie. Yeah. You know what I mean. Like TV shows usually just kind of go like yeah okay and then we're wrapping it up. Yeah like nobody's ever going to beat Bob Newhart. Right. The Newhart. It was the second Bob Newhart show where he he fucking gets hit with a golf ball and
Starting point is 00:52:37 he wakes up at the ending of the first show that he ever did with a different life. I have a weird dream. It's like oh there was this beautiful blonde and then it's like what do you mean a beautiful blonde. You can always just go Sopranos on it. And lastly I got the class I got my finally set up classic Xbox fully loaded with all the fun stuff. Yeah that's why you want to talk about this.
Starting point is 00:53:00 No. And it was just it was a fun little little trek to find out where online I can find somebody that is ready for this. It's ready for you. Ready for me. Find a less than genuine Xbox. Right. An original Xbox that is which is like modded and trekked trekked tricked out with like
Starting point is 00:53:17 the skull decal. The skull decal. You know and all the crazy shit. What was your other option for a decal. Hold on. You might think that if Willie would call me and say hey which of these Xbox should I get. I would have said the skull ones but no the one you should have caught you is just cash

Get a backup Xbox return this one but this was a fucking like like okay you get in contact I get in contact with the sky and I see the list and he's got the full list everything's

When I was ready he called like I was gonna go pick it up initially he called me back he said bro I fucked it up I was trying to get you some extra shit on there and I accidentally formatted everything I'm gonna need some more time and I was like yo it's cool it's cool I get to talk to you for longer we get to hang out take your time.
Starting point is 00:57:38 It's the Zast customer service thing I've never experienced. He's like there's this mod where you can get like a remote to turn it on from a distance bro you don't have to set anything up and then you put in the three digits for the game you want to boot. Boots right to the thing bro I'm telling you would say. That's actually pretty solid. I'm like that's pretty good. Yeah that is pretty useful.
Starting point is 00:57:56 It's alright man. That means you want to that means when we turn the thing on we have the big fucking like binder of co-op. Yeah. You know man if you want to talk to me anytime just add me on ICQ bro ICQ. It was a caricature you know and he's at one point he straight up was like so you mentioned your other friend has an Xbox you guys sometimes play these games and there's not too many people out there that still care about this shit I would love to maybe hang out or do something
Starting point is 00:58:22 like that sometime. He straight up gave the offer and I'm like yeah man I'll talk to my friends we'll see what's up. You know what this is this is young man have a name. His name is Ari. Ari. Yeah yeah yeah. Come over and play Dino Crisis 3.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Play Dinosaur Hunting. Dinosaur Hunting. That would blow his mind. That's the fine shit. I made a friend man. I made a friend. That's good. That's a good story.
Starting point is 00:58:45 I made a friend. I'm sorry I kind of jumped the gun. No no that took a while so just by all means what else did you do? Yeah like I said I finished off friends and when you look at we started like mid like season 3 or something so let's just go from there and then when I looked at you know there's usually a flashback episode and I just realized that the early 90s like 94-95 the 90s had nothing going on. No one knew what to wear.
Starting point is 00:59:10 They're super weird. Like it's the most eclectic like not the 80s not what you think of the 90s the 90s I think of hip hop I think of you know like I think of mom jeans and like pastel windbreakers. Sort of but that's also kind of 80s but the early 90s they had no idea what to wear like Chandler just wore vests. Who? Yeah. Chandler.
Starting point is 00:59:31 Yes. Sorry Mr. Kakaroach. We're far enough from the 90s that the 90s look weird like the 80s did when we were like 15. Oh yeah. Well there's that back in the early 90s party that they had. Yeah that's true. You know there's all kinds of shit.
Starting point is 00:59:46 Fucking basketball pull off pants with the buttons on the sides. Wearing your jeans backwards. Come on. I don't know if I can go back and watch this episode because I'm just looking at them like honey Rachel I can't believe you're trying to pull this off. You can't. So I finished off that and I also this is a weird thing about me but I think I told Liam about this but I love the show House Hunters.
Starting point is 01:00:08 Yeah. Like the TLC show or not TLC like my parents. I love watching idiots especially young couples go in and have these dumb lists of the most unrealistic. I need a heated pool. I need granite countertops. I need amazing lighting. I need four bedrooms.
Starting point is 01:00:27 I have a hundred thousand dollars. Yeah go. This is a this is a. I need to have a hedge base. This is a thing where they just get shown three houses usually one that the man likes or the other person the couple likes one that they both like and one that's kind of a mix. Guess what the other thing I'm Pat will be happy to know about this. I've watched the show.
Starting point is 01:00:45 If someone has a dog the dog will win out. Yeah. It could be a large backyard. It could be a million dollars. They can't afford it. If it's the one with the large backyard for the dog the dog will fucking win every time sure it'll put them in abject poverty and they won't be able to afford it. The dog's backyard always wins.
Starting point is 01:01:06 My favorite really happy for five years. My favorite part of that show is I've watched about 10 of them I guess because every time I go to see my folks like it's always on TLC is on the background. They know where it's at and like every now like I want to say a third of all episodes you get the thing of the wife had or the wife or the husband has the list like that but the other one doesn't and the other one doesn't give a fuck and they're like oh man look at this place it's got grand countertops it's amazing and then they're like man it's pretty expensive it's pretty expensive no we'll just we'll just work more hours don't
Starting point is 01:01:41 we? No. How about we try a different house and then they see a different house and now the other person's like hey this is pretty affordable it's pretty nice but yeah but the other one though you can just work more hours and think of all the granite we're sacrificing. You can see the marriage just start to disintegrate it's amazing. Is there a name for this era of trash reality that's based on career like it's always existed though.
Starting point is 01:02:13 I want to say it's reality TV because there's shows that do it differently where they play up drama really hard but then this one is more like we're kind of you know we're selling it a little bit. But like the reality boom when the dust settled what was left was the shows that were like following a profession. It's still booming. But what I mean is you don't have like random there's no Temptation Island anymore. But there's Duck Dynasty.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Now it's Ice Road Truckers Duck Dynasty. People in a career doing a thing right after this show the whatever the stupid pawn shop thing is. That's right after this show is the one that's talking to house hunters or whatever there's usually one right after it's I forget the name but it's Canadian it's about this bald guy who's a contractor loving her list it no no I know Mike or something not Mike not the big guy Mike but he's like small he's got bald head and he's like a Canadian guy and he just contracts out and helps rebuild their homes and the whole show the whole
Starting point is 01:03:10 show is people will call it's like hey we have we need a contract job and he's like okay we're just gonna like near how it's done level show you how what we're gonna do to this house the whole process and 80% of them are like wow people built your house really fucked up check this shit out don't buy a house with this in it fucking house fall apart and that said really they had the show about gypsies like I think it's still ongoing sure you know like sure everyone's still eligible for a reality show and like you know when you think about a woolly art our stuff is basically a reality show so they when you even have that fifth guy editing it to make us look extra catty and this is like you're
Starting point is 01:03:48 just graphing them one by one online like now that they're all on Netflix like a season or something because it feels so weird for a show like that to be on demand no I know used to that I demanded but but reality shows when we were working on murdered I think I listened to every episode of Hell's Kitchen and shopped just in the background wow that explains a lot every single episode explains why you fucked up the writing so yeah let's take a quick word from our sponsors guys yeah yeah well he's matching his phone for like five seconds before it made any sound mother's day is only six days away oh my god mother horn mother horn at the sound your mom will make if you don't get her right you got

Starting point is 01:10:02 built to be a home show us homes that were never homes yeah and then they go okay like a remodeled church or something yeah so they go how about this and they're like this is really strange I don't really know about this but it's almost too weird and the realtor is like what okay well what about this and they're like oh how about this firehouse there's the pole right over there and they're like this has too much room oh that's a winner right there that's so good and then they go well this is also the least amount of your budget this costs like a hundred thousand your budgets like whatever they're like I don't know then show them another weird space and the realtor is like I don't know what they want and this is the weirdest thing they take the firehouse of course they do and they
Starting point is 01:10:46 complain we don't know what to fill it with though I don't I don't get it there's one couple that the guys I I want a guy goes I want to fix her upper I want something nasty that I can do my project then the girl goes I want a finished house that I can live in I want to fix her upper and he looks at a wall and goes I'd be great if there was no window there and I could put in a window what do you want you want your imagination motherfucker and then I complain about this on Twitter there's a guy that's like I don't want to pull and his wife is like I want to pull and his two kids go I want to pull you are a fucking heel well you gotta take care of the pool but the guy looks like looks like um uh the super nerd um John Carmack he looks like John Carmack he goes I

Starting point is 01:12:28 made me stop watching Pawn Stars to waste my life is because every episode of Pawn Stars and every episode of this is they're all exactly the same yeah I comes in as a hey so I got this rare thing oh man that's uh that'd be uh if that's genuine that'd be worth a lot of money hold on let's call him the expert call him the fake expert oh yeah this is a fucking fake uh this is a piece of shit uh okay so I'll give you 80 cents well I'm really happy that I got an appraisal so I know yeah I just want to go this is actually worth $5,000 and the person gets super happy and they're like I'll give you 20 bucks for it and then the fucking Pawn Stars asshole is like I'll give you you pay me and I'll take it and they're like but the guy just told me he's like oh but dude you
Starting point is 01:13:08 have to help me out I work at Game Buzz it's only worth it's only worth that I'm just criticizing a Pawn Shop for operating like a Pawn Shop I know I'm just saying that the person always gets disappointed when the guy did you watch the episode where they had the fucking monster truck robot that's like a giant dragon and it could pick up cars and break them down and they tried to sell truckasaurus to him but it was it was actually too much money for the mind the mind is because it breeds fire and shit it's only worth that money if we can find a buyer I know it works but I'm just making a comment oh yeah oh yeah everyone doesn't understand I got a solid gold Lincoln letter covered in uh platinum and moon dust from the moon landing uh well that's too expensive we can't
Starting point is 01:13:52 sell that I'll give you I'll give you this pop tart I'll come on you're taking this out of it the last the last two things that's meant to be taken out of it but I like that show can I have everyone kind of likes it not even a pop tart with frosting no not even just the play the last two things that you played uh Titan Souls and uh Chroma Squad right yeah uh I played two games on steam one called Westerado Double Barrel I saw that one yeah just uh it's by Adult Swim right or published by Adult Swim uh take the visuals of Hyper Light Drifter and mix it with Sunset Riders like the Konami game so Sunset Riders well overhead kind of Sunset Riders feel less pretty okay the pixel art of of Hyper Light and their overhead camera but it's super super good it's
Starting point is 01:14:40 really like overwhelm like you know you feel really good on steam when the reviews it says those magical worlds overwhelmingly positive here's all I need to know describe the controls it's uh like it's yeah just you need three keyboards it's overhead so you're moving just the controller what what is the layout it's like shoot stick twin stick no not twin stick it's a bunch of sticks well there's a you can put them so whatever you want but shoot button what else not twin stick okay you walk and you shoot in the direction you're walking I don't know what you want from me sorry I'm like is there a shoot and then a roll or and then a reload switch I'm I didn't get super into it I don't know if that's a fun lock okay like other gun thing like I'm just because like the
Starting point is 01:15:26 type of game like that just getting the button layout is like you get a good idea for like what kind of game you're gonna get yeah like top kind of shooter but all right all right it's super good and the other one is uh I told Pat about this a few months ago because but it came out officially today guns gore and cannolis yeah which is a straight up contra game in the 1930s where you play as me because the main character has this gigantic jaw and a black beard and it and he's kind of pudgy and he's wearing like a 1930s gangster outfit and it's all of me and Pat's impersonations of that type of character he's like hey come on cannolis breadsticks and you just shoot guys and it's just a very simple johnny rigatoni's adventures and there's a million different
Starting point is 01:16:15 animations for how every guy on screen dies electrocuted boiled in like hot water shot shot on the head knife to death things crush him and it's also like it's a it's a shooter it's like 2d shooter like straight like from left to right you can also put in four johnny rigatoni's at the same time nice then it becomes absolute madness with different suit colors it's different shades of suits uh it's super fun we should take a look at it sometime because it was just like that it writes itself it was really really fun really solid game so cool that's what I played this week liam i finished daredevil that was a fucking good show you were almost the whole like way through the movie i was like i'll pick up a newspaper and say hell's kitchen yeah just do that just

Starting point is 01:22:21 asked for a i couldn't tell if you were winding down or not i'm sorry i just stole the topic i'm sorry i didn't know i didn't see i was an honest mistake so there's just one other thing and it's just like a really little thing i didn't mean to steal that's okay that's okay uh it's always i'm not your woolly yeah it's my fault no it's my fault it's just finally one little feature of one little game that i think is really really smart and could be applied to other games really well so neck right oh my god i went back there no you're not doing this no don't give me that attitude every day rise every day just as good every day that we're walking home from mats on the podcast this dude leaders something to say about to be fair to be fair on the days for real on the air it's
Starting point is 01:23:05 been months yeah you get you get one so i played it for a little while and the last time i played it was at launch right and at launch i kind of played it before any of my friends did and so i didn't get to experience the multiplayer feature which is really really good so the multiplayer feature of knack is there's these treasure chests all over the game and they drop random items in a gashapon style of like 50 and the deal is you can pick the item you got in the chest or the item your friend got in the chest and so whenever i open a chest i get to look at the item and then all my friends what they got in all of that play in the neck there was like six on my friends list wow okay and and well as i get further in the game less and less of them okay yeah um and you get to pick
Starting point is 01:23:46 whichever gashapon item you want from either what you got or what they got really fun non-simultaneous co-op multiplayer something like that exactly and it's the kind of thing where like i think castlevania order of ecclesia has random chests that could be applied there perfectly that any game with random that reminds me you're not taking it away from your friend you just have the you just take my face on it's not quite the same but that reminds me of how it was explained to me a long time ago how chests in dota worked is say you would have a gold chest you have a gold key that would open it it would there are a million items in dota right but it would tell you it's going to be one of these eight items and here's their percentage chances to draw so you'd be like
Starting point is 01:24:26 well there's a thing that i actually really want in here as well so it's worth it for me to open this one and it's not quite the same but yeah doing weird goofy shit with chest drops sounds interesting no exactly and like it's just a good seamless multiplayer integration no no bullshit really no signing up for anything it's just it's just there yeah i just have other options no i think i'm i'm definitely a fan of like fun non-simultaneous multiplayer uh with the hard exception of the wea version of rock revolution which you may or may not be aware the multiplayer mode i know so many people have tested that that's crazy the only multiplayer they could have handled was uh going online and playing through a stage and then putting your score up and then sending it to your friend
Starting point is 01:25:12 and then later your friend sees your score and decides to challenge it leaderboard fight and then send it back to you directly not even leaderboard in like direct to friend guitar hero competitor well that's kind of like i think in the later nether speed titles they had those things where it was like your rivals and it would be pop-ups that would just happen like you did in this time and your friend just did in this time but but wasn't leaderboard but at least at least that idea is like it's just happening there this was like no go find the friend yeah that you want to send your challenge to because he's the one who's going to take you up because we don't have an active leaderboard you know like fuck there was no revolution published by Konami yeah yeah what are
Starting point is 01:25:56 yeah so anyone out there making games with random chests think about that this is really fun all of you out there it's a good feature there's like 30 people out there total and none of them listen to this podcast the description i feel like something like that would fit into like a roguelagacy kind of game yeah i can see that yeah no absolutely like there's there's a lot of games where it would totally yeah and a game like roguelagacy you get like a list of like 100 items that your friends got because so many people played that game yeah exactly yeah that'd be really cool mm-hmm pat yo dude my week was awesome i'll spare you most of it because the vast majority of my week was uh like romantic smoochy time with the missus who's in town and you had a great time with you this week
Starting point is 01:26:34 yeah i know right the vast majority of your week was two days oh no it was five days of shit was it five yeah really i thought you were going on for thursday sunday oh that's four days whatever i can't math fuck off uh and that and her and my mom teaming up to make fun of me how much of that do you guys deal with because every time it's like are you guys teamed up and i can't fight this none zero oh well okay well a little bit not much because like my mom like looks forward to it she's like oh man i'm gonna get to burn you so hard burn that asshole oh okay uh but fucking great time i did play a bunch of games but not for any significant length of time yeah last week i talked about how what am i gonna be doing on the watch pat i don't know i just want wichard
Starting point is 01:27:19 to come out i'm gonna play a bunch of bullshit and be miserable and that's what i did so let's fucking break it down i fucking re-subbed and quit oh yeah at that 14 i got that within 12 hours could you get your money back no i paid the 14 dollars it was totally worth it uh what a great game what a totally fucking scratch that itch what a fantastic game and i was playing as a tank and i was having tons of fun and then i got to level 11 and it said hey go on a guild test which is like an instance where it teaches you how that's the bit where you unplug your computer and throw it out the way that's where it teaches you how to play as a party yeah and in the very first time that i played as a party as the tank i almost died because the healer wasn't healing me and i said
Starting point is 01:28:00 fuck this fuck this whole genre i hate it why can't like i said throw the computer out the window don't scratch the itch have the skin surgically removed like why can't every mmo just be early era wow up to level 47 where you could just solo the whole game i hate having to team up with people in animal hate it it's the worst it's the worst part it's the ass it makes me stop playing every time are you serious yes yeah okay okay serious it dude it's the worst every fucking time it's like i know how to be a tank or a dps and not a healer example it's an mmo yes but i want there are no shut up it's an mmo i want the massive world and i like the other people i know woolly woolly i want them to woolly woolly i can't shut up shut up here's what i want here's what they want i love
Starting point is 01:28:55 maybe i read about this but i hate beating no hold on it's very simple name me a replacement single player rpg with a world that i've been detailed the reckoning no no it's not that big this is what i want i want them to rip out all the people and all the all the dungeons that require multiple people and i want them to balance it for one person and i want it to be an absurdly gigantic like play super rpg that's i will i will pay $250 for grand theft auto modded elder scrolls i that's why i play grand theft auto but it's not enough would you want size no i want the gameplay to just cause so no you have to play the dawn hack games on kids too so that's it so there was that experience there was as matt mentioned trying to play gta 5 and going this isn't enough this isn't
Starting point is 01:29:46 enough and i'm even dropping whales not even dudes i i gotta say by the way because uh you're really relevant to this story uh i played gta 5 last week for the first time i have come to realize you know what i said about watchdogs every realistic open world game to me is a fun vampire yeah i you just hate the whole job i just and i didn't think i hated it but i can't stand it yeah i can't play for more than half an hour i get so bored sleeping dogs is like sleeping dogs no actually i like sleeping dogs because it has cool combat yeah that's good uh so i was part of gta 3 to me was just listening to the uh sure yeah i yeah i but gta 5 is weird i cannot get the volume on the radio loud enough because there's no separate volume toggle for the radio so you have to turn
Starting point is 01:30:33 down the sound effects yeah the car engine noise is so loud didn't have to put the dialogue it's weird uh i ended up playing first person is it loud i i ended up playing uh like a good uh hour and a half of the pc version of valkyrie chronicles uh because i was looking through the thing and the girlfriend says oh what's that so that's valkyrie chronicles she says well what's that so i'll show you that game's amazing right and you ever you ever be in a position where something didn't hit you you didn't notice it but someone else did and then them noticing it you realize is the normal reaction and then you're and then you're non noticing it is the weird one did you get to the deal with edy is that what so no no the beginning of valkyrie chronicles it is this like yay it's world war two
Starting point is 01:31:14 kind of time sketching bugs and i'm anime girl look to tells and then the next scene it's to steve bloom as a imperial soldier kicking a pregnant woman to the floor and like we're gonna fucking exterminate you fucking pigs ah we're gonna murder your baby and then right that oh we got a little pig mascot yeah we're gonna take it's like and then you talk to a party member like i can't believe you have that fucking darks and filth on our team i get less accurate when i'm near them because i'm so seething with races hatred yeah and it's it's like constant and her friend was like what the fuck is this game like i don't know i did never noticed the wild incongruous nature well if you don't like that there's a game for you and it's valkyrie chronicles
Starting point is 01:32:01 too okay is it okay that game fucking sucks it's yeah yeah here what a step dance like guys of arcadia character still in it yeah they're totally uh in the second one the first one there i'm by single beard yeah vice is cool i have a full skies faq printed out at home yeah 300 pages massive i'm glad we've all done this in a binder you have to it's it's so weird like there's a shot like oh no the windmill blew up you see the the villagers running and the soldiers advancing you're like okay and then it cuts to the shoulders soldiers gunning down all the civilians in this painterly anime Miyazaki style it's so weird it's that game's the weirdest and i never noticed until somebody pointed out i fucking freaked me out pretty colorful for war i know it's so it's so
Starting point is 01:32:49 pastel and and stencil drawing and shit and like oh you let's go get the gun oh i'm dead at least it's fucking bizarre like everyone was like oh advance words are really colorful and then when they did uh the gray portrait of ruin portrait not portrait of ruin that's a castle those games were right next to each other in my little uh ds box thing that had the you know and then a lot of people just go yeah days of ruin the gray unfun one yeah i like that one a lot no i don't fucking love you guys it's still great yeah like some people are like i like the design he goes the best so i played can be pretty cool too you know that game was download only in japan really i don't know the dsi it was dsi we're only in japan weird uh i played one more game and i
Starting point is 01:33:34 did one more thing uh i played i i talked to lima about this a while ago like how there's games that you adore but they're gone now and no matter and no matter what you do you're never going to get them back so for me in particular it's day of defeat 1.3 not sourced sourced it and i mentioned it last week and it's like well uh me and lima had a long conversation about this yeah or it's like what the fuck are you supposed to do even if i abuse my twitter account right and just say hey everybody i'm making a day of defeat server everyone come on in the game's a anyone can run it right what's going to happen i'm going to run into people who suck who had never played it and it's like woolly imagine no one heard about third strike her
Starting point is 01:34:15 third strike was gone you know i have everybody come to my house and play third strike and people just walked off on the off the street to play third strike with you would you have fun no because you'd stop all over them you want competition so i mentioned this this this this this problem on twitter and some and then like so you should check out the server list i go to all zeros like if the game is actually just dead like it's it's completely well i mean what you probably need to do there is find the community yeah and hang out with them so uh in i like okay every server under my criteria which are not stringent not password protected not empty there's nothing there's absolutely nothing somebody finally got a hold of me said there's this server this server
Starting point is 01:34:57 has nine people on it that's not a lot those servers go up to 32 people but fuck it yeah i can you play a game you can play a game with 10 people and you know those nine people are on there for a while if they're running a fucking 24-7 avalanche server this far into the future yes so i go in there and playing it like wow not only am i playing it i'm i'm not only did not get rusty i'm better than ever i'm like at 32 10 in kd and then the guy who mentioned the the server list to me comes in and is like oh man this server is great wait a second pat these are all bots and go no no no no no they have pings they have pings though this is dude their pings aren't changing and then and then a guy on the server says well they're not all bots there's three of us here
Starting point is 01:35:49 oh and that's why i was like smoking it because i'm fighting against fucking counterstrike bots and i played for maybe 45 minutes and i'm like man i still know all the map x points on avalanche i know how to get into the spawn looking and it's like but against bots you know how to kill that bot against bots it's against bots it's like everyone who's playing this game should know that on avalanche on the axis side there's a little hole that you can climb into next to the window that shoots out on the thing that you can watch people run out of their spawn and just blow them away and you can jump in between this series of addicts and be all hype and seek and and pre-out actively stall them so they can't get to the flags but the bots just run past you and you
Starting point is 01:36:32 shoot them in the back that's not what i want no and it's gone it's gone forever it will never come back i will never get it back and there's nothing to be done so if you if anyone has that game out there unless you have those people in your life just give up and leave it as a memory just give up because it's going to be gone i'd rather have had nothing than have played this sham but i didn't even get to play saints i didn't even get to play my fucking or flash my two favorite fucking maps oh i when we were a member pat i did tell you you can reach out to your wide community and say hey i need you guys to practice and you can come and come back and you can revive it yourself i played that game every night for three hours for like five years well
Starting point is 01:37:19 you better get started no one's no and i wasn't even that good no one's gonna have the fucking patience to do that when i when i got mech or your two working for mech a week like at one point i just went over to the multiplayer screen and just stared at it and got sad because you couldn't just got you can be sad yeah no you can load in with bots yeah and and it's bullshit that's it i could run my own private server on my fucking pc now but no one's gonna join it mario kart ds as well it's like wow really can't play that on that so that that was a huge but no more good competition because if you just snake you win and and just and there's no other people to snake with prop problem so probably probably the weirdest thing that i ran into doing this is
Starting point is 01:38:00 there used to be an old trick slash glitch where you couldn't cook grenades in day of defeat well you could do is throw them straight at the floor and pick them up and use the throw pretty outback function in order to manually cook them but the frame rate that my the game is running at now on my computer i can't actually do it anymore because it's running at like 400 frames a second or something and it bummed me out like you used to run forward and by the time you get to the first sandbag on avalanche you throw your pineapple you pick it up you throw it directly into that hole in the wall and you kill two guys same thing every fucking match and now i can't do it while moving and like it totally bummed me out so that was a horrible experience now that being said did
Starting point is 01:38:41 you guys see the big packy out flight did you watch it no no so i recently and well you did too watch depot so i was like yeah boxing right so i went over but no hold on wait for it wait for it so i go over you got tricked go to a friend's place for dinner it's like you know the bunch of couples that kind of thing uh we have dinner and then uh my friend says yo the packy out fights gonna be on in like an hour oh yeah okay boxing's cool that's a big fight let's watch the packy out boxing yeah so it's it's uh uh me and my girlfriend and uh and a bunch of my friends sitting on these couches like talking watching thanks for writing us yeah fuck up uh same thing every time we'd say that's okay that's okay fine uh i understand now uh but and we're all
Starting point is 01:39:30 sitting there and it's the first fight it's russian guy against a Puerto Rican guy who has a i'm russian guy it's like the ford the first match is a fucking like title match for the feather weight and it's like this is just like epo right so then we're watching the second so we're watching the second match oh i don't even remember who's fighting because i look over and my girlfriend is underneath my arm asleep and i look over to the right and my friend is asleep and then i look at the tv and i realized a weird amount of time has passed which means i was asleep and the tv and then when once we all wake up because i'm like oh we should watch the stream is dead because we're not watching it but uh and then it's like oh okay and then we all just went home and didn't
Starting point is 01:40:17 see the pack-out fight because it turns out no one actually cares about pausing even even the guy who was like yo let's watch the fight yeah was like kind of nodding off and doing dishes instead of watching the fight i know is that guess what you missed mayweather like literally described as a turtle get ready for the next clinch clinch clinching and clinched it out and won somehow by decision by decision to 12 rounds though but still you know what says everything the fucking title match the very first match ended with when the guy took a body blow like the single punch to the stomach took a knee and then stayed on his knee for the 10 count and then got up and looked confused and was did you just throw the fight did you did did i just in
Starting point is 01:41:06 my first boxing match that i've ever seen in my life really obvious did i just see a very obvious dive in the eighth round because shit the main thing you're looking at twitter is that boxing sucks i saw lots of people like jubilee and some other like personalities just going wow this sucks yeah i wasted a hundred dollars in this fucking fight and it wasn't entertaining people i've seen never talk about boxing just saying it sucks and i never hear boxing stuff yeah no that's the thing too is that and a lot of people going like um like uh l ufc's way better and then some other people coming out and going every you guys should know that boxing is a technical sport and so on but like yeah no apparently just wasn't entertaining i want to see the americans ribs explode in slow
Starting point is 01:41:52 motion and and not when there's this much money on the line and this many egos coming to headbutt um and like you can just go watch floyd mayweather's punch out summary video which is on youtube now great which sums the whole thing up in a nice little uh eight-bit video the two twitter pictures one from floyd mayweather where it shows a gigantic jumbo private jet that's his and he goes welcome to my world and then it shows pekeo is or whatever thank you thank you and it shows him in his car with his family saying i hope i do well god bless that's the difference and then takya's mom is doing her voodoo curses hang the ring uh the jagger tooth you should just do in the middle the the mayweathers punch out video starts with them putting in the code to go fight right to bear the right away
Starting point is 01:42:43 and like before the fight starts you get to a black screen which is here pat you can see this to fight floyd do you agree to wear his gloves fight at the mgm be tested daily get less money than him not be in your prime stay in the hotel basement sell tmt t-shirts and no rematch and then you select no and it shoots you back to the title screen yeah that's right i know all these things so good times yeah oh what a what a fucking now you know i'm surprised you didn't know just like an entire room of people falling asleep during a fight a fucking fight the best the best part about that entire thing is the shot of uh las vegas on airport um parking lot where everyone's jets were backed into like a full capacity thing where they were they were parked like
Starting point is 01:43:31 with the wings making upside down v's and v's next to each other right you know what i mean as wow crammed full parking why are you in mayweathers entourage you don't belong here go away jimmy kimmel go back to fighting matt daemon do it all right so yeah let's just great week but man boxing is the worst because we it both spoiled us yeah the anime version of a sport is always going to be more dramatic and super powered this prince tennis is super good let me watch this andre agacy or serena william slaughter destroy this other source yeah that's not going to happen when is charles barkley gonna do a real chaos stop when is when does barry sanders see the laser arrow cutting through the credit defensive line as he fucking spins off of it oh my god watch nascar
Starting point is 01:44:25 it's nowhere near as exciting as initial d see this this is why i'm of i've said it on this podcast before and i'm gonna keep saying it until it happens i fully believe that we should have a new form of sport and it's genetically enhanced drug addicts versus cyborgs this is what i want this is a good business plan i want mutin ly remember australia had those battle suits yeah oh that's yeah that one looks promising but i want them to be fucking sky high on myth or super bad i'm sorry brennan williams but your job would be way cooler with lasers and drugs involved yeah he can make it happen i want to see arrows on the fucking field as dudes are grabbing athletes that think their limbs will grow back yeah so they'll do it so they'll push themselves a little bit harder giant crushers
Starting point is 01:45:15 on the field in football uh we need we need hands bow jackson are you just holding on to the ball hey bow jackson i think you should change your first name to bones and become a skeleton you yeah yeah oh it's jackson this is counting good good week for games good week for games better than last week got some stuff got some stuff yeah last week was the bummerist uh so yeah the huge story is ukulele banjo-kazooie spiritual successor hit all of its stretch goals in the first day in the first minute and a half the fastest kickstarter ever so uh we got everyone loves banjo-kazooie we got mighty number nine uh we've got broken age and i guess wasteland would be eternity wasteland yeah yeah up up in those successes or for big money instant successes oh okay like a blam oh
Starting point is 01:46:09 shit y'all adventure open out a run open the gates and black friday yeah shadow run did really so i like how they did all but both shadow runs that's the other ones they honestly didn't know that they'd do all their stretch goals that fast so they were just like what what are you tell us what are stretch goals and people are like dk rap okay yeah yeah yeah and then you see the guy uh grant kurt cope who's like yeah he said we'll make four sim to make a new dk rap because he was the guy that did the original gk rap the gk rap and he goes i like how they put that as a tear without ever asking me i almost live down the original there's a lot of stretch goals that you get the feeling like that with attorneys like we're gonna force chris avalon to play our conan like i don't think
Starting point is 01:46:53 he wanted to play our conan so the one thing they just added last night was like we're catchable that's what i was about to say that totally that's probably my favorite like one of my favorite stretch goals i've ever heard and anything is we're just gonna score the game instead yeah like that's nuts that's super cool it's at the point where you're like is this music gonna be as good as tropical freeze maybe all that is it's david wise yeah it's all about the tucky kunk country composing exactly it's like all that is like let's just use money to make this thing that we were always gonna do yeah better yeah because that like yeah that sounds a lot like the like they were were they always gonna make this and this is just to add shit to it or or what i think i think
Starting point is 01:47:36 those characters were gonna be support characters in the new banjo kazooie okay but that didn't work out and so on and so forth so nothing hit me harder than because uh when the the the character designs are for yuka and leily came out we kind of talked about this we we did a video not too long ago it's gonna take a while before that comes out that shows up but we're talking about like all these character designs are fine that they're they're not a little plain they're they're the renders aren't as good as the as as somebody who doesn't give a never play banjo uh no i played a little bit of banjo so i don't care i think that these designs are nowhere near as good as banjo and kazooie's design yeah i'm not even close it's very plain like from the color dynamic to the the space what
Starting point is 01:48:16 kind of turned me is that i'm not sure you saw that little black and white comic of of yuka and leily waving and they're going to have fun and then you see a withered old banjo kazooie saying you guys have fun and i was like okay no their characters are there they don't die moment yeah it orchestrated by fans but yeah no no for sure but it made me appreciate the entire project a little bit more because banjo kazooie like imagine if rare's game at e3 will be banjo kazooie that'll be so how many how many my number nine ones had beck walk going off with megaman sent him on exactly two the one with all those star megaman in the mood you know it's just like that one was over the top it's the go-to thing the fun thing about rare though are these you know rare guys is that they
Starting point is 01:49:03 know that they kind of know that their rare's strength was never really character designs per say you know there's some good in here some there but there aren't styles never been you know it's like mostly the charm and the levels and all that and all their kickstarter pages like yo if you are kick starters don't worry we'll put more eyes on them they know that their thing is putting googly eyes on everything and they know it's stupid yeah we'll put more googly eyes on this rock yeah googly eyes that's a rare character there we're done set it to go i you know with all the money i i hope like part of that is uh having a few alternate models or a few alternate designs no the n64 mode for fun stuff yeah i think i hope and i'm sure leon would agree that with
Starting point is 01:49:52 like 40 days left to go yeah that um that they probably consider putting 3ds and vita versions out oh yeah no that's something that they can obviously spend the money to have someone else yeah i remember saying on the first day like i really hope that's one of their playtonic projects is a handheld thing because like i think i don't know but rare like rare always had a bit of presence there so well they did on the gameboy yeah but you know after console versions right i don't know what kind of a big open like level it's level based like i'm of the opinion that they should like push it to the absolute limits of whatever these consoles can do in terms of size so that the idea of porting them is like laughable i just know i mean i i think they can do something
Starting point is 01:50:37 i just think with like the fucking like 15 or 16 stretch goals already hit they would have mentioned it already if they were considering no i i think but no but they come to the thing like what else can we do but it's the context of what's matt said what matt's saying where they're already at the point of and they have 40 days left yeah 40 days that's the context maybe maybe because i like conquer pocket tails it was a good game oh you just mean somewhere it's been off thing yeah oh okay now wait no wasn't that the original conquer game no that was 12 tails conquer 64 and then they made some weird spin off after conquer no but uh pocket tails wow 64 and it was conquer is the innocent like little cute guy man you know what i love about this kickstarter it's listed in pounds
Starting point is 01:51:22 yeah so when you see one three three four nine five six pounds that's more than the version that's a lot that's a lot that was my good irish accent i know that joke really got flubbed oh crikey i'm an irish man how much how much pence is it how many pence in the air anyway i i i went from like yeah this is this project's neat i put in some money but then like the huge swell behind it everyone going nuts for it is like what put me even more on board in a weird way i'm surprised i did not expect that type of reaction from people i expect a success over time i think nuts and bolts made people go oh yeah i want an actual good game i didn't i did not think that like because i hate nuts and bolts how do i put this like i thought that adventure game people
Starting point is 01:52:10 and our like computer rpg people were way sadder and about their games dying than the banjo kazooie people were about their character going away at least mario and some other like things here and there have kept platformers relatively but then i guess i guess there's just way more people that cared about banjo kazooie but just think about like a how few colorful platformer games that also collect us on there's like mario like guess what i'm really enjoying playing knack because there's nothing else there is nothing else and then when this comes out and hopefully it's good you can just start to shit all over and act like the rest of us i don't even remember the argument we had about this a while ago but like yeah the if you ever need proof in the pudding like it's
Starting point is 01:52:48 fucking there also nailing the name in one go yeah it's real hard to type into your phone because your phone doesn't want to be part of that shit i just went to yuka and that's like every story is just this so um so that's a great success for video games yeah meanwhile a great failure for movies have you seen the screenshot of the suicide squad oh yeah that shit's embarrassing i think we were both when we met all those people at the hot topic it was really embarrassing is it that bad it's i haven't seen dude it's dude his dreams about what harley looked like are way way worse it's what really like it's the worst harley ever the thing that i said please don't do that they did it else they don't they made it worse than like they quadrupled down on it yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:53:38 not a bit more than exactly what she looks like in arkham asylum and arkham city but worse well your pats that's trying to get this smith is so sad to be there oh my god just come around knitting me a picture of it just just come around here dude he's knitting a picture i can do it don't forget killer croc your favorite and it's also revealing everyone at the same time except for joelka it can't get at the full screen that's the problem that's the crew and it's the bunch of guys spend on this picture i don't know but that's how you reveal everybody there's dead shot and there's killer crocs yeah that looks killer croc is played by adelaide just another piece of evidence that the dcc you needs to die let's just rush into it yeah but okay we don't have eight movies like marvel
Starting point is 01:54:28 did to catch up so let's just throw out 20 characters simultaneously and put one no no 16 of suicide squad is was its own comic yeah absolutely and it's a thing but all of these characters have history a lot of them are batman villains a lot of them are for some other things so you're you're kind of yeah fast i can see the complaint in that characters in age of ultron didn't get in a fucking backstory what the fuck are they gonna do for zazz in this movie so so here's what you're looking at you're looking at a studio or not a studio a company that is being forced into the mcu sort of competition age but they without forming marvel studios no no you're no i disagree they're not being forced into it they are trying to crawl into it in the ugliest way possible
Starting point is 01:55:20 i remember because nothing's pushing them yeah just make a pathetic effort to get in between now and and um um what is it 2018 i believe there's uh like five or six movies planned as well still coming so aquaman wonder woman and all that stuff yeah the director for octa they've had no wonder woman we didn't talk about this she just i was just gonna mention she just quit yeah so dc was saying like well we don't want to have the overbearing like kevin phage that he says his name the the the marvel studios like overseeing every movie we don't want a guy making sure just we know kevin phage like the producer for for marvel studios the showrunner the guy the guy makes sure that it all fits yeah right we don't want to have some overbearing guy walking around saying you can't do this in your movie you
Starting point is 01:56:08 can't do this in your movie you want these movies to breathe and be their own and then the fucking director on wonder woman walks out over arguments with like the dc people because it's not fitting what sniders shit looks like it's just it's like you know marvel had and still is failing at some things like the tv show and uh like uh agents of shields and shit like that but they had years of failure to years and years and years of years of years of giving their characters for other studios and seeing who fucked up who like the heart exactly what mistakes were made like okay let's kill the right people to get their brands back and and learning how to make good movies the hard way not like that blind it's this weird corporate blindness where you're on your it's so big that
Starting point is 01:56:56 you're unable to tell that's a product you don't get why this product is successful or unsuccessful exactly it's literally that did you guys read those either that stuff about what's the new spider-man from sony was going to be he was going to be like a club dj yeah there was a way to dance music and all sorts of shit it's sick this is wow and there's the liner look because the kids seem really into it like that's a line wow the thing like exactly like a no actual family right they have no idea the kids like how are these things are good or bad spider-man's a kid yeah kids like oh that squad stop showing bad photos just don't show nothing show a trailer and maybe the trailer will be good and make people go look in context this looks better because when I first saw this I go
Starting point is 01:57:40 hey look mystery men too don't show care about these guys don't show dead shot getting out of a car in his pimp uniform it looks absurd or I also think of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen I just I see a bunch of characters show up and you're just like who I don't yeah just what a tragedy or the Avengers sorry the Avengers not the Avengers oh the Avengers yeah okay that one oh yeah oh man it's it's not imagine if we try to get a reboot now so or show so like all debate about Jared Lito aside it doesn't matter anymore like well we have to wait for the footage but it doesn't matter anymore optimism is I like how you also have the new John Connor and the new Alex Murphy in that shot oh they're in there not John Connor sorry Kyle Reese Kyle Reese is um as Rick flag I believe
Starting point is 01:58:36 no no um the new Alex Murphy is Rick flag and I don't know who the new Kyle Reese is and this was supposed to be a star-studded movie like they're supposed to get everyone who is it who is yeah Tom Hardy was originally going to be hardy then guess what he dropped out because he saw it you know I guess I mean I guess they're like they're cutting their fangs on the WB on the CW rather on the TV shows and they're using that as they're like proving grounds and it's like that's not gonna fucking fly man anyway uh so yeah that's that's garbage uh also uh also arrows got a hot chest yeah we missed this game last year and now it's coming back with a vengeance come on combat core is this game that had it we played as a con recently it had a kick starter last year
Starting point is 01:59:27 sure and we completely missed the noise about it because I didn't well first of all we would have backed the shit out of this first of all I didn't play that whatever kind of talking about I missed this right this is news to me and what and uh my cast wasn't there okay didn't see it didn't know but um went to go check out what's the history of this game because it's like a power stone spiritual successor type of thing not inspired by it's not the same power stone people yeah so it's not exactly but it's definitely inspired by it heavily and uh so this got greenlit last year and it had a kick starter and the kick starter failed um spectacularly that sucks uh it barely didn't get out of three digits right and um I guess some but something happened
Starting point is 02:00:18 oh right just kept working on it and they just kept working on it and now it's resurgent it's got this new footage out um including artwork from our buddy Alex Ahad yeah right over at the skullgirls crew and another person from udon they're both uh yeah Roboto yeah Roboto you can tell because the quality of the character art like looks like it's like power some skyrocketed amazing amazing character designs right the big rustler girl ember who has like power bonds in german see like every character's art looks fucking cool yeah it looks um and her friend Takahata is playing one of the is playing the the buruto of this show really a bruiser huh this is my first fondness where I linked to you guys when I saw it because Takahata wrote look I'm playing the main
Starting point is 02:01:05 character oh okay blonde kid that kind of looks like Wang yeah yeah yeah Wang Tang no it is powered up form I just uh I just uh caught it through the news you know real news feed but um yeah so it just gets coming back and it's gotten a whole bunch of people that we're friends with it's cool attached to it that are like it's got a really weird collection of platforms coming on PC Wii U and Xbox one that's the weirdest selection of platforms you're right and it's really odd and and uh so watching some of that like combat footage just seems to have you know the full on four player powerstone type thing no good melee no gem collection but a more advanced combo system than powerstone definitely there's some serious juggling happening uh and like bounces the other
Starting point is 02:01:45 thing I'm not sure is that all the stages just seem to be like this holographic fusion frenzy stages fusion frenzy or uh custom robo yeah which I I hope even custom robo has more art going on yeah this is money this is money saving stages yeah they're just they're just great there's a little more going on yeah and I think that's that might just be a money situation yeah the character looks so solid and and very organic looking and like nice and yeah well you're hearing a crowd as they're fighting so much but you're not but you're not seeing yeah I get it so we'll see but um yeah I just dropped a link to this because I'm like I completely missed this game it was super off my radar until this moment I also saw my name I didn't really good name good name um is that
Starting point is 02:02:31 it's you know on the docket this week uh what about the arrival school no the the fucking DMC thing that he said today in an interview no we are making DMC is going to expand and the more of you buy DMC for SE the faster it'll happen okay so complete that's the test so we're back we're backed no but the the important thing is they didn't say the likelihood he said the speed well they already said this before yeah I know it was one of so all I have to do is do the thing you're already gonna do yeah and then tell everyone like you already were going to yeah okay yeah all right can't can't wait for uh DMC Chronicles like I just I get a personal able woolly your real shooter woolly's Virgil lifestyle is is making DMC 5 happen naturally I like it that's good there's more
Starting point is 02:03:22 footage dude I know and it's not enough I know because the person that played that stream was terrible it's never enough soft uh oh now I know how the fans feel yeah oh and it's you know also said yo does anybody like rival schools I like rival schools yeah but he's that I didn't put that on the docket for two weeks now because he said that a couple years ago that's that before the extent of the story and also a year before that hey do you guys like darkstalkers buy darkstalkers oh none of you bought darkstalkers and there's not yeah but it's a oh no I'm actually sad how like how pathetic the flop was for darkstalkers yeah it came out and the sales were like why is such a good package I don't even buy it for completely understandable reasons nobody cares about darkstalkers
Starting point is 02:04:10 I think rival schools could succeed once you start yes rival schools is a hundred times better than darkstalkers I don't think it could succeed anymore I think it no I think it could because it's got anime girls all over it it's not hard to market that dude dude Liam's right anime girls no but that's not marketable harem of new designs of rival school style characters oh no wait I want that it's not going to happen let's get the new generation of rival schools all their little brothers and sisters and everyone's grown up and show us the fucking teacher of social studies in a business teaching you know lobby for years make street fighter and then you have to convince and plead and beg and he finally got a green light and as this used to susser a cow column
Starting point is 02:04:58 like you know and that's theirs then they're making a street fighter five be it with someone else's money because capcom about for whatever reason can't afford it but he still got that going that same guy said less to the same to darkstalkers and couldn't do that I don't see how it's sooner has a better chance of getting right he's their old problem the problem with darkstalkers and the reason why it can't go any further is because gameplay wise people don't enjoy it as much I also think the character designs don't sell nearly as much as as a game with tons of girls would that's true I think that's that's true it's a cool thematic game about it's a cool thematic game about like it's got like it's cool and then you've got sasquatch and pyrone and like tons of just
Starting point is 02:05:45 unmarketable you're basically describing killer instincts you know it's like it speaks for itself it's like it's not just like oh it was an upset we can't believe this happened it's plus vampire resurrection was like look fucking stain on the floor to me when I think about it in my head it made it's because what I prefer when I think of darkstalkers I think of werewolf vampire cat girl witch uh insect girl I'm able to go easily go through it and then I started thinking about rival schools and while there's characters I like 80 percent of them all bleed together and they're I feel exactly the same way and you're right but you're in a super minority because most people want the other thing sure also it's a funer game I'll never not sue me it's the volleyball
Starting point is 02:06:35 Roberto kicks the soccer ball I had more fun playing playing rival schools on a fist of custom we did dark so but rival schools has textbook combos textbook they're textbook dude Kyoko on her own would fucking pass that kickstarter old man Ryu with a tie and shoulder pads yeah that's the coolest do your homework girl sure you can you what rival school's coming back ah love it as a rail shooter I'd play it every time I get excited mass there to snipe that enjoyment go play tatsunoko versus capcom it's not enough enjoy batsuit it's not I don't like batsuit you don't like batsuit I hate him he's one of my most disliked main characters of a thing ever ah main character rival schools is show ah yeah whatever you say anyway or daigo or akira
Starting point is 02:07:30 or can whatever I'm sorry if you're a character inspired by grappler backy you win in my book forever I don't like to play as him all right he sucks whatever you say um that's who's a loser daigo is cool we had a really cool uh moment where uh the guys at archive.org figured out how to embed uh old DOS games into tweets that is high tech stuff and like you could play the full game in a given tweet I would play via my phone and then Twitter shut it down and got rid of it all stop using our service for cool shit they don't want people yeah they don't want people messing now let's take a let's take a good lesson from this don't did archive uh what's that place called archive.org archive.org did they tell twitter they were gonna do this beforehand well they just
Starting point is 02:08:22 announced it and it was out no they didn't they just put it out yeah and for a little while yeah you got to do it yeah but yeah but if they told twitter yeah we would have never had this moment of brilliance don't ask for permission ask for forgiveness I'm just amazed that like it was actually shut down because archive that is is a huge like it's a real it's a real thing internet institution yeah but twitter's done I like twitter it's gotta protect your code for malicious code in this case Nazis are malicious code they kind of said they don't want people you could play wolfenstein there you go they they kind of said they don't want people um messing with their video player code or whatever so it's like now it just kind of link you can link to an archive.org play
Starting point is 02:09:03 online for it twitter twitter's response was constructive and and straight to the point until they ran out of characters sorry your game cannot be completed in less than 150 strokes on your keyboards yeah uh so that was that was the word I wanted to play halloween harry in a tweet or monster you wanted to tweet out halloween harry to all your friends see that new uh jason's rather yeah he's got some fucking mode that he seems to be totally project on he just walks forward and gets super armor he appears to be completely project on invincible but as the gas is that he has no dash or run in that and he walks slower she just walks super slow there's nothing you can do it's jade uh jade jade's armor yeah but that was a fast dash it seems like it's just no she turned
Starting point is 02:09:55 it on yeah she had it on for a few seconds to do whatever she wanted but this appears to be where he's just one of this no i'm just going to get in and there's nothing like a reptile has the poison yeah also his intro is that he's holding the head of like a teenage girl and it's just carrying her into the whole body the whole body no like gripping onto her head yeah her whole body's there and just throws her down and takes his machete out of her head yeah it takes his machete out of the go the go hibiki style and then he says nothing yeah there's no voice i can't wait for that stop banging in the woods uh jackie and takita yeah stop it oh that was like a story thing oh my god i bet johnny jackie jackie is like the girl
Starting point is 02:10:38 that has sex but she's also the black girl you're a double victim she's super dead you're so fucking cannot pick jackie i bet you john i can already see johnny's things like did i fight against you in a movie once uh and then jason just dot dot dot yeah those though that i am interested to see the writing for uh because it's always one yeah there's always a back and forth response and jason will never say a goddamn thing so i'm eager to see what people's responses to his nothing i want to take goro talk to him i see goro i am goro i am goro we're a day late but the whole stream of jason is like yesterday yeah so i'm showing all of them there so let's get it so that's out and you know that's your season pass money um oh did you see
Starting point is 02:11:28 those terrible costumes really yeah the horror costume did you see reptiles you see him he's a full body naked amphibian creature from the black lagoon so when everyone's like no less reptile more ninja here's a fucking monster reptile it's a horror it's the horror back so he's a merman uh urmax a mummy and which it was jack muley was that he's not attractive for a merman he is not strangely attractive for a merman so while we're talking about season pass i saw that segue wants to field this one uh man assume you seems to be the wb master i i i would i would just start off by saying like every subsequent batman game gets worse and worse dlc where it's then in the last one they refuse to fix the game so just a focus on the dlc make sure to start with part one of this
Starting point is 02:12:27 then part two yeah which is the season pass for arkham nye costs 40 dollars yeah it costs 40 dollars which is ten dollars more than mortal combat and what was announced with that price when they first told you that it was it was nothing nothing they didn't tell you yeah it was nothing and then they announced the details during the pakya flight later i know like literally during it yeah almost as if so that no one would pay attention uh so you're getting a bat girl campaign that's cool you're getting new villain invasions what i mean campaign some it seems like there's going to be like side campaigns you get a lot of ps4 timed exclusive things skins a lot of retail exclusive things you get we're talking about the season pass that shit sucks you're right but you
Starting point is 02:13:13 get race tracks you get race tracks for your batmobile guess what you can't buy this one game in one place for one system and get everything like you physically can't end game stop get the watch you get everything there's retailer exclusive it's only game stop it's really because when i said the rest it just said retailer exclusive didn't say which one well those are all costumes i assume and those are what it's still all but like we're talking about the season pass i agree that that's the word that's the cardinal but liam is what if i don't what if i want to buy this game on pc which games which are local games i don't even think jell's pc i just said no i'm i'm just setting it up let's talk about the season pass so i think the one thing we can say the most
Starting point is 02:13:56 expensive season pass ever yes no no no general i5 says and 92 dollars and project diva f second is 90 dollars yeah i believe right no this is the most expensive season pass about a game you care about yeah i think well i was thinking about it a lot and you know the one thing about this one is there's clearly on paper a lot more content than most season passes there is this is just an objective on paper that's the way it is for them to charge more i still don't agree with it because i feel like there are like two different kinds of season passes and don't know i'd love to live in a world with no season passes but in the world where we do i think there's two kinds and the two kinds are the killer instinct the project diva the uh mortal combat x season passes where you get
Starting point is 02:14:45 the that you want no where we can look at the list and we know exactly what we're getting yeah because they have to communicate because it's it's a song or it's a character yeah so mk's is expensive but at least you know we're getting these characters you get these costs and i couldn't name games because i don't follow them but i assume racing game season passes are the same thing where it's highly objective you're getting tracks and cars and then but then for like batman and bioshock and lord of the rings bioshock stuff like that where it's going to be x campaign of question mark quality not enough length question mark or question mark content there's there are so many question marks yeah until saturday night it was like they will be content every six months
Starting point is 02:15:30 like no cause i'm four six months before the first six months so it's basically telling you wait a year and then it said story campaign racing tracks costumes and that was it pig where's our forty dollars and now that we're getting to forty dollars that's more than half the price of the game but you're yeah you're almost selling two games you're close you're selling a hundred dollar games well what does batman actually cost for like let's say americans because it's cost $60 for us with tax costs yeah whatever seventy four ninety two dollars depending whenever we refer to american prices yeah so you're twenty dollars off the mark of and the fucking uk season pass costs 40 pounds yeah that's a that's legit the uk market is legit you can point to almost any game
Starting point is 02:16:14 sounds like every batman game sells really well oh because it's rock steady yeah i forgot oh i'm like yeah i don't know it's just if this were 15 dollars cheaper i don't think there would be an uh there would not be a kerf off there wouldn't be an outcry for yeah can there just be a single fucking batman game with no controversy here's here hey will there be well that's more than asylum asylum like the the original release if you're ever gonna go back and play these just play asylum here here's my it will be the one you would like here's my solution to you and the solution that i'm going to this is my like this is the turning point for me or it's i'm finally like no this is here's what you do don't buy it for a year and wait for the steam cell to come on that has all of it
Starting point is 02:16:55 i don't for it for 40 i don't care about ever playing this game then then never buy it and just don't buy it i'm fine and i i was like yeah i'll pick it up and now i'm like now i'll pick it up in a year i'm so fine because asylum is the one that's actually like amazing at all these asylums like a metroid game yeah and all the rest are kind of that's the one that i own the city is really really good i have problems with city but for story reasons it's a really good game but it's it's an eight to a nine right i'd say it's a nine to a ten oh well there you go even better yeah let's say arkham song but it's like it's fucking batman amazing this is gonna sell this is gonna work well and at the end of the day it's they know they can get away with a game too they know they
Starting point is 02:17:39 can get away with this yeah you know yeah it's too much people have problem with Mortal Kombat and being at 29 bucks but again they're it said you're gonna get these four characters you're gonna get costumes with each of these packs yeah and then it's like that's it and then there's probably more deal in the future and and to be clear i i hope that you're saying that in in this in the stance of like you know that's a good way to announce season passes because like the content is very clearing what i know it is it's not an excuse for season passes no no Mortal Kombat should no games should have to have a season it is but also that people had a problem with that price point yeah absolutely because it's 20 because it's 10 bucks more than the mk9 one 40 for this
Starting point is 02:18:21 and like it might not even be some stuff you care about then a fighting game of course you care about characters of course you care about costumes oh and costumes maybe a bit but you of course you care about that but for batman like let's say you don't even like racing here's race talk about race trash sherry content yeah exactly i actually like for fighting games it's like i actually care very little about costumes but i give i buy them because i want to support the game yeah that's the only way to your tip jar yeah um porn went out for sleeping dogs and it's infinite dlc train yeah no definitely no one's no one's no one's gonna do it like they did no no i would have i i never bought the fucking definitive version just because good it's not a good break
Starting point is 02:19:01 but i always yeah the fact that the pc version of the definitive edition is apparently worse than the original game yeah is and the fact you can't buy the original game anymore you can only buy the definitive edition is a fucking shame there's a crock of shit i'll wait for the redefinitive version in the next console cycle yeah so i i mean okay i think like the the if you don't mind like a last word on this i think you know obviously they're not gonna go away season passes aren't disappearing you know we all wish we all wish we could live they're getting more powerful if anything we all wish we could live in a world without them i think but i think the solution if you want to keep doing them is fucking show your content in as much detail as possible maybe
Starting point is 02:19:41 personally and on the consumer end it's like just don't buy the game at all yeah sure but like at least if you're gonna offer a season pass at least get in and show people this is the cool stuff instead of just a bunch of questions i just feel like in a bigger question mark than last time in the case of of burial at sea and shit like that with bio shock infinite i bet i feel like irrational hands were just tied again of course and all of the development no no developer is saying let's do the season pass that's it that's it this is where your ship this is what the money looks like you're gonna have to bring in x amount of millions of dollars with this amount of resources go price we saw with the fall we saw with the fall what happens when a developer tries to
Starting point is 02:20:25 game the system with their publisher and make one part of it free like it always was is everything else gets overpriced by comparison yeah three of these two companies one of our brothers in 2k really seem to be at the forefront of going fuck it no one will stop us just do it yeah congrats on taking it away from ea and ubi the usual evils uh so this one this quick story is more of just a psa for everybody if you're a fan of res i am a fan of what are they taking res off no just just but it's just if you're a fan of res then you you probably know that if you get the res soundtrack they fucking don't have the best song in the game on the soundtrack mindkiller they don't have mindkiller they have a weird version of it because of some like either legal things but it's
Starting point is 02:21:12 there's a problem so they have how am i going to know that fear is the mindkiller well you got to go redo that's the only way so it fucking sucks it's a travesty that's been a crime for years someone has finally went and ripped the zeta i like that something's been a crime for years and no one stopped them and they've been selling like the res soundtrack is out there and you have this thing called fear mix which is a weird terrible version of the song um so the real true version of fear is the mindkiller has finally been ripped and re-peaced together uh with all its layers into a remastered for a new generation exactly by this really cool guy and i've linked to it and like if again if you know res this is important fucking news go get it you remember
Starting point is 02:21:57 when res came out on 360 and we're all thrilled because like man we could finally play this game on a modern system right yeah my 360 is in the closet why are they gonna put res on a modern system yeah i guess i'm super serious you know you can play it if you took out your 360 yeah but you can play it if you took out your gamecast your ps2 yeah but then you don't have to subject yourself to playing the genecast version it's true but yeah no it's just like there are games like these that they should just consistently release more games digitally instead of actually taking them away yeah that's a good idea i actually what i actually want is a screensaver of traveling mode and i just let my computer load into that whenever i waste 10 minutes just put a pc version
Starting point is 02:22:37 or just put cosmic smash god damn it could you imagine what people could do to a pc version of res it could get the trans vibrators on again yeah i could do whatever they want it that's like that that'd be unbelievable unbelievable i'm not sure if you sit on camera really quickly one of the weirdest moments ever i've had with woolly is when he just invited me over and the lights are low he's like let's play cosmic smash and i was like what i've never heard of this and he's just forcing me to play it he's just looking at it he's quiet i'm like what are we doing woolly i don't feel comfortable playing this game it's kind of odd he's like no cosmic smash and we just play that for an hour i'm like i'm gonna go releasing yeah it was so weird you loved it
Starting point is 02:23:12 woolly was just spent i thought i didn't have a bad time that a weird time you didn't understand the kind of time again anyway um speaking of weird games did anyone play uh this week uh agar.io that game is fucking weird and great it's a browser game that's super good you play as a cell and you go around picking up little cells to get bigger and the the gimmick is that everyone else is a cell and everyone's also trying to eat each other at the same time you will fucking pour time into that if you play it sounds sounds like a catamari multiplayer a little much simpler because you just point the mouse and i will be the organism but i played it for hours that game can you see my balls so uh eat your balls we are kind of running a bit low on time let's jump
Starting point is 02:24:03 over to emails no because there's some good stuff to talk about like what um the genius is over at the killer instinct crew are doing the k.i crew the um fucking okay so one you got the cinder trailer officially uh we talked about cinder cinder you get the aria teaser at the end of that it's your anime zoner you got your jbt style you know your uh your lambda or new 13 yeah that looks way cooler because our initial like reveal was just bald gold bald lady glowing eyes yeah so yeah so that's like part robot tech suit something going on she's also confirmed to be the third announcer so that's really cool you're gonna have hype guy and robot girl which is perfect i that's what i wanted godlike combo um so uh that's cool and then you got the final announcement on how they're going to be
Starting point is 02:24:54 releasing the shadow jago skin shago to the the shago skin this is fucking kim possible shago yeah okay max calls them um yeah the the the shago skin is finally announced as to how they're going to sell it to you and major kudos on making this uh an easy it's an easy scumbag transaction in anyone else's hands but they clearly thought about it and went no let's try to make this they put into k i gold and which is micro transaction which is micro transaction bucks for just accessories right to buy twenty dollars worth yeah so the pack is twenty dollars but you get the shadow jago skin for free which you can't get anywhere else unless you had the day one right so but on is the only way to piss people off on its own that sounds gross that sounds disgusting
Starting point is 02:25:44 but then they go well here's what's up all the money in this for the first hundred k that it makes goes towards the evo tournament but as a pot bonus for pot bonuses for tournaments throughout the year throughout the year to create a season i think it was 50k for evo the rest of blitz to to create it's like you're not just getting the skin it's the money is going straight into the killer instinct important yes it's a tournament initiative that's that's being run and it's going straight into this attorney scene for that then they also announced that if we do hit that cap which they totally did immediately then they're going to develop shadow jago into a completely separate character of all his crazy broken moves and balance him separate from jago like i love how

Starting point is 02:27:14 yeah that's all you needed yeah so that was that's great um in a quick summer i guess that screenshot of half bots wrestling wwe beat them up game that's been going around twitter such a travesty half bot pitched this game to the wwe and it looks kind of like a scott's pilgrim about it that was visually styled you know mom she's john sena and and uh cm punk fighting a gigantic brock lesnar boss and he had like a huge boss life boss super proving the fact that if you take the wrestling license and put it in other genres you get gold that are not simulations that are not simulations you get gold remember that was that power stone one the crazy mecca mecca bass mecca uh uh uh techno sounds good like a fucking jrpg i still don't see it would be but there but
Starting point is 02:28:04 there are fucking market no marketing guys but their music their business guys are looking at crush hour and going never again yeah never again that's the problem but no the business guys don't even know crush hour exists yeah you're making much credibly um just credit uh so there's that uh there's a brief little a tech demo that came out that's sort of agnes philosophy too again it's kind of kind of little using some using the similar arc using similar character and things and stuff um that shit looks gorgeous yeah wow it makes agnes philosophy look like dog shit i really hope they're gonna continue developing that world and character into a title uh they'll make a game it's great i i like the the the title on its own it's really interesting i'd like to see
Starting point is 02:28:49 that become something uh you've got swary confirming de force coming to pc for the longest time i was like this isn't a confirmation this is just him saying i want one and microsoft never said anything now it's never turned into a real thing and so thanks obama thanks obama and he also confirmed we're working on season more episodes wow that's cool did they say anything about a steam release it's a no he did he did he said we are looking at steam or something because i was i was thinking i was wondering if games for windows well i was wondering if this and like k i and uh fable legends were going to be the launch games for those those that would that would be standing those things out to die but they got to launch their platform with something no they don't they don't absolutely
Starting point is 02:29:37 they know i mean they do no no you're actually talking zero business sense pat like you you're but yeah i don't care about their business i'm a consumer no i know but like you're not even being constructive here like one we'll see anyway if they want four thousand sales for it then they get i had thought i thought they were maybe gonna try doing that because the whole cross buy initiatives between them and get people pushing in on xbox because of that but i just the the uh sour mood that you guys had with like the fact that it's dead and not coming back with any sequels finally yay it's gone yeah lift it up so that's that's nice fantastic swearing is a guy that it's just it's fun to see him happy wearing his jojo hat or whatever smoking cigars yeah fun to see
Starting point is 02:30:20 him happy he's a monkey thanks obama he carries a little stuffed monkey oh okay uh we got playism fucking doing what hasn't been done being the first guys to officially bring toho over to the west yeah it was great yeah so it's the shitty toho they're putting they're putting out they're the one that jet that japan loves and not the one that japan hates no uh they're bringing over toho 14 and they're bringing over um taco man and it's just kind of like is this gonna fly here i don't know liam do you think it has a chance yeah absolutely okay what is toho like talk there's so many japanese games on steam now that like yeah it'll talk to toho and it's really really popular do they make Godzilla they make shrubs there's a thing that do the dumb oh the bullet hell shit
Starting point is 02:31:06 yeah that's doomed that should do good here i totally think so and i mean like they're gonna push forward with the console versions too like playism recently announced they're publishing six uh japanese indie titles on consoles in the west including like astabreed and quaylor and stuff astabreed so you know they're they're gonna make really our friend at playism nyan uh just uh tweeted out a picture of the coolest picture of dr doom i've ever seen i have to link it to you because i saw it did you see it i think i didn't see it from his twitter but is it the statue no it's a piece of comic art okay doom is like down on the floor and he's like got his fist like in the floor and he's looking up and i was like oh i gotta show this to woolly but then i forgot
Starting point is 02:31:45 but like toho is the kind of series i'm sure you have this for yourself woolly we're like at some point in your life there was a japanese thing that you just wanted to give money to but there was no way impossible and like there's so many fans of toho a convention what's the best what is the most organized setup at every convention the godzilla it's the toho setup every fucking time um so that thing that you want that i wanted to give money to that there was no way to do it years ago was cave story there you go and then that eventually you can give a bunch of money to cave story you can buy like eight ways to pixel all the money you can just buy a and now the frog one too right like yeah the frog carob blaster yeah carob blaster you can just buy that like a dollar
Starting point is 02:32:25 goes to to pixel i never had that like a way to way to support something and you didn't have the well you had no child well no because the idea is that if they don't want to let me support it then fuck them no no in some cases it's like the yak is an argument in some cases the people making the game just don't have the needs to translate it that's not their fault what are you gonna do well i'm not going to say fuck them for not doing it it's not their fault well no it's not their fault but if like if they if i'm not worth their time then they're not worth my money it's not that you're not worth their time is that they can't afford it so if they're if i'm not worth their money then they're not worth my money the money that they don't have what did the money that they
Starting point is 02:33:11 get supported or something of course i wanted the exit five really bad and then they finally did it was really happy well that's what we're talking about this is exactly what i never wanted to give sega money again as they held it back for me it's also different if it's a company that has an american arm versus a random yeah it's not enough so you're coming from two different places here uh let's take letters go go where do you send them letters super best friendcast at gmail.com super best friendcast at gmail.com here's some letters it might sound like this uh okay we have about 10 minutes to do letters what is the most embarrassing the drake wants to know what's the most embarrassingly weeaboo thing you've ever done oh i got caught singing two mix songs on the

Starting point is 02:38:41 bad at skull curls so i'm bad at skull girls too but he's really bad at skull girl great there's a bad so i'm not gonna front i say awful shit i don't mean to people all the time oh no how do you grow as human beings and uh not be jerks to other people oh you cut them out of your life and start over like you you burn the bridge and you're like i gotta find a new bridge say horrible things and you hope that in the future you come to understand what you said was horrible and you don't do it again uh mike zero is a fact that you said that in the email is one good step towards realizing exactly and look back on yourself five years ago and say was that good almost everybody almost everybody goes into an immediately defensive state whenever they're
Starting point is 02:39:25 challenged with something instead of going into a was i wrong kind of state i i actually go oh fuck i was wrong about it took me a long time to learn how to do that it's so when i did i found out that i was a piece of shit all the time i and i think it's cultural i just think i think culturally we're grown to be always right and to be afraid of being wrong less people you're a special fucking snowflake and think badly of us and it's like it's totally like if you can here's a fucking be wrong it's okay you remember you remember on an earlier podcast i uh uh i described the situation in which mean you got a huge fight over the me not liking co-op and then in discussing that fight i said that you were the problem sure uh after playing final fantasy 14 i have to remiss myself no i am
Starting point is 02:40:11 the problem it is me that is the problem with co-op not you all right isaac wants to know uh if he says it sends it we'll leave a survivor i started making my own survivor pack what are your tips for me and survivor yeah there's a good one that i i recently learned we put a knife in there yeah when you've got your cool like fucking go bag thing ready to go and survive whatever's going on take all your important documents and shit like that make photocopies of it put it in a ziplock bag and velcro it to the bottom of your bag so some asshole comes to rob you for all your shit you can quickly grab your important docs and have that and they give him the bag now i want to point out woolly this is a disaster you lose the bag you you are describing a disaster scenario
Starting point is 02:40:57 in which you imagine civilization will reestablish itself yes that's correct if you are preparing for the actual fucking end times this will not likely be useful my advice is make sure the bag is on the side of the house that will stay with you when the earthquake splits your building there's that too sure but nothing worse than losing your bag to the earthquake down if you can afford it get a satellite alternatively just put a gun in an empty bag and then when you find woolly shoot him and take his bag yeah he'll have his documents but i'll have my documents though when you run outside your door don't team up with any groups that have old people or children yeah no you want to team up with the gnarly freakazoids that are like are you guys going to
Starting point is 02:41:41 become the villains in the road yeah because i want to be on that side of it and not on the other side of it rosie used to get really sad playing donkey kong country too with her mom is this a children's book you're reading because whenever she's because i'm summarizing do you agree if it was rosie got really sad when playing donkey kong 64 period i was gonna go for something like that because because uh whenever they get the game over screen diddy and dixie in this game yeah i was really sad what is the worst game over screen that's a bad minus final fight the fucking tnt on the chair but lots of people but it's like you gotta you gotta blow it out or they die yeah every time you walk away from that cabinet you killed are we
