The Kind of Funny membership drive is happening. To celebrate, we put up two formerly exclusive Gregways over the weekend, and we're now letting everyone enjoy your membership exclusive call-ins for weekly happy hours. If you love what we do and haven't supported or haven't supported in a while, come on back for August and pitch in on patreon.com slash kind of funny or YouTube.com slash kind of funny games with your Kind of Funny membership. What's up and welcome back to The Kind of Funny Games cast live for Tuesday, August. 13th, 2024. Of course, I am your host, Tim Getty's. I am joined today by the new face of video

games blessing at Eioia Jr. Good day, Tim. We got the master hype, Snowbike, Mike. Hello, bless. We have the natural rifle, Andy Cortez. Hello, everybody. I love that you always got to try something different, Mike today. I'm trying something new. You get a low energy, Mike today. Oh, yeah. Just something different. It's not me energized. It's just I'm trying something different. Okay, okay. Let's see where this takes us, everybody. How do you feel about that, Andy? I don't know. I mean, it's just, it's always something new. Yeah. Always trying something new. Just forgets about the thing he was trying yesterday.

You gotta shoot your shot, Andy. You got try things. That's just the, that's just the mic way, you know? That is the mic way, everybody. I appreciate Sir Chadman and chat. Great lineup this games cast. The only thing that's different is that Greg's not here.

Yeah, I mean, hey, he's not wrong. It is a great lineup, everybody. This great lineup's going to have a lot of fun today. Talking about Gamescom. It's a little weird, though, because Gamescom normally, it would do a predictions episode a little closer to it. but I'm going to be gone.

So I was like, because I'm going on my honeymoon and Greg's gone. I was like, I don't care about Greg's predictions. I want us hanging out here, having a good time talking. But more than that. What's up? You got married? I got married. It's crazy, right? You informed at it. But we don't often get Jeff Keely talking as much

as he has this early. We are a week away, and he's tweeting up a storm, kind of confirming like everything that's going to be there. Yeah, good or a bad thing? I don't know. I mean, I think set in expectations for what the show is. We'll go through everything here. And I feel like I will say it sounds like a good show. It just doesn't sound like, oh, maybe we should sit here predicting, will a bunch of things be here?

Because going through the list, I feel like the answer would just be no to most things. Because they're letting us know what is going to be here. So we'll go through all of that. And if we do have predictions, though, we're going to talk about those as well, because this is the kind of funny games cast. We each every weekday, we get together to talk about the biggest review. previews and topics and video games live on YouTube, Twitch and podcast services around the globe. If you love what we do, please support us with the Kind Up Funny membership. You can get it on YouTube or Patreon.

You get every show ad free. You can watch live as we record them. And you get a daily exclusive Greg way, which has been really fun because the last two weeks, Greg's been out. So a bunch of different kind of funny people have been doing Gregways. Most of us for the very first time. And the content's been really good. So you can go check those out. And because this is our Patreon Pledge month,

we're giving everybody a little tease, just a little taste of the happy hours that we do that are normally exclusive to members every single month. Normally we do a big one once a month, but instead this month, we're doing one every week just to give everybody a kind of idea of what it is. It's our call-in show where people can literally call in, talk to us, ask questions, hang out.

It's a great time, and you can check it out on YouTube.com slash kind of funny games. We just did one this morning. How did it go, bless. It was very fun. Yeah, who was on it? It was me. It was Nick. It was Joey.

And was it just us? Was there anybody else? There was one more person, right? High energy, Mike was there. High energy, Mike. That's who it was. Did you expel it all? Is that why we're here?

Chapel Rone took all my energy. I gave everything to Chapel. Today, you already got Roger given all of his thoughts on Dead Rising on Kind of Funny Games. Daily up next, Nick, Mike, and Andy, you're going to be playing some Specter Divide. Andy, what is that? Spector Divide is a new first-person shooter that, that was sort of co-produced, co-consulted from a lot of different,

I guess, gaming sort of personalities in the space, but mainly Shroud is one of the main dudes who was kind of like, I guess, I don't know if he's a part of the studio or if he, like, has money in it, but he's very heavily featured in, like, a lot of the promotional stuff. This is something that he worked on along with all these developers. It's like a, it's a, you know, search and destroy type game, but you control two people so you can, like, set a clone to be

there or whatever, and then you swap between both of the bodies, 3V3, but in actual, it's like 6 v6, I guess. Yeah, we'll see how it goes. Me, Nick and Mike are playing it today. We got the downloads up and ready to go. Should be exciting. And there's no shooting penalty. There's no movement penalty, like in Valorin, where, you know, or in Counterstrike,

where if you move while you're shooting, selling the bullets are all over the place, this is just kind of more of a bit of a more of a straightforward approach to first-person shooters. Well, cool. It looks cool. Yeah, you can check that out right after this. And then if you are a kind of funny member, you can get the Greg Wade today. Joey's doing it. So you can get a little Joey action.

Shout out to our Patreon producers, Carl Jacobs and Delaney Twining. Today we're brought to you by Monster Hunter now, but I'll tell you about that later. For now, let's begin with the topic of the show. Like I was saying, topic of the show today is the Gamescom. 2024 predictions. Gamescom opening night live will happen on Tuesday, August 20th. So one week from today at 11 a.m. Pacific time. We will be live reacting to it right here on Twitch and YouTube. It'll be a great time like it always is. Mike, you excited about that? I love getting to react to opening night live with all of you. It's a lot of fun. We gather around the table and we just have a good time.

I will say, though, Barrett has killed my hype for this show, but with the reality. You know, Barrett, it brings the real. I've always wanted this to be the third big punch that Jeff Keely can deliver to us fans of games out in the world throughout the year. But Bearer is like, slow your role, Mike. It's not like that. And over the past three years, Barrett, you were right. It's not like that. I have to keep reminding you and the audience.

out there because the, you know, the people who are just like kind of into games will just like tweet out all of these crazy predictions. And just as a reminder, for the longest time, the biggest thing at Gamescom was Biomuton. And what if I... We got Saints rule that one year.

What if I rattled... We got Dead Island two last year. What if I rattled off some games from last year that you'd be wondering, wow, we haven't heard anything about these games. Tell me about them. In the last year, we have Sky, the two embers. which was kind of like

Who could forget? Who could forget, right? A lot of these games, I just kind of feel like they were announced there and then like maybe it's a different universe that those games

are kind of getting more updates in. Death Ground is a game about dinosaurs. Oh, I like that. A survival horror game that pits a players against dinosaurs. That's called Death Ground. They got that Battle Royale game

from the studio that Neil Blom Camp is a part of. The game is called Off the Grid where it's a third person a battle reall and like you're kind of like upgrading cybernetic parts of your body and that's another game that like these things get announced at gamescom but over this last year you would think that there would have been some other place that we'd get some sort of trailer or update and i just haven't heard about any of these games games come is slowly getting there like i've always had the same attitude

when it comes to opening night live which is exactly what bear is talking about what everybody's talking about where you don't expect much to happen right like i mentioned i'm what there was the one year where Saints Row was the big announcement. And like typically, okay, cool, you got Saints Row, but that Saints Row wasn't the best Saints Row. And then what? The other thing was,

Dead Island 2 was another big surprise. Then it came out, and it was, you know, it was a video game. But when I pull up the IGN article for everything announced at opening that live in 2023,

as I start to go through it, I'm like, oh, they had some stuff there, though, right? They had a Starfield live action trailer. They had, what you can call it? Rebel Moons trailer. Sure. Yeah.

What the fuck? I feel like that was snuck in this article. That was not there when I first looked through this. It's usually, it's just like the show. Zach Snyder went in and updated it to remind people that that's the thing. It's usually updates to known quantities.

Yeah. Or, or, to your point, Andy, just like, kind of like obscure, weird,

not indie games, but just like smaller dev games. Yeah. Smaller publishing. Now this dinosaur game looks pretty lit. And that's been my point is, it's not that like, oh,

it's only going to be like shitty games or games that we don't care about. It's just like every year I feel like people get into their crazy like, oh, Wolverine is going to be announced at this. Like the huge like triple it. Well, I'm not saying us, but I'm saying like the audience out there. Yeah.

The people who want to watch this because they only like kind of know what gamescom is. I feel like they sometimes they got to get it beat into you, right? You got to watch enough gamescom opening night lives or enough presentations to where it's like, okay, I understand now, right? Like you're going to get excited out of that. I remember when I first started listening to Games Podcast. and keeping up with events. And every Tokyo Game Show,

I would listen to Beyond and they're like, don't expect much. And I'm like, but it's a Tokyo Game Show. That sounds like it's going to have cool shit and then you'd get there. Nothing would happen. That's so funny.

Having said that. Just your game show. You know what I mean? Tokyo Game Show this year does kind of seem like it might be kind of a big one. And a big one for Tokyo Game Show. I don't know what necessarily that means.

But like I, there is a, I would go as far as saying likelihood at this point. that we get Kingdom Hearts for, Mike, at Tokyo Game Show. We didn't get it to D23, and I feel like we're due seeing that game again. The heart of the cards, Mike. Gotta believe it.

Out of the cards. And in addition to that, PlayStation is confirmed to be doing something at Tokyo Game Show. What that actually means? I don't know, but when you look at PlayStation's studios output right now, Tokyo Game Show is after Astrobot releases. So for them to say PlayStation will be there, to what extent, I think that it's weird for Ghost Susima 2 to be at

Tokyo Game Show just weird only in the sense of how PlayStation typically likes to roll announcements and games out like I feel like that is very much a state of play a PlayStation showcase at an ideal world with where we're at currently with PlayStation I think a state of play

announcement but I maybe they do a state of play around Tokyo Game Show right? Yeah actually that's it they're going to do that's what they're going to do that solves all the problems because then it's still Tokyo Game Show, but then it's still state of place, so PlayStation gets the credit, whatever.

Yeah, that would be sick to get both Kingdom Hearts 4 and a big PlayStation thing. I'm, you know, I have my expectations on, like, whatever the lowest thing is. And so, like, you're telling me Tokyo Game Show, PlayStation is going to have a thing. I'm like, all right, cool, we're going to get a deep dive into Lego Horizon Adventures, right?

Like, that's where my mind immediately goes, but it could get, it could be cool to see something bigger there. Yeah. And I'm not building myself up for disappointment, people say in the chat, if Kingdom Hearts 4 is not there. I'm not going to be like, I'm disappointed. It's just I do think that it could be there. Like it makes sense

it lines up. Um, so yeah, because of Tokyo game show happening and like, I think that there's potential there. That takes away even more from gamescom's potential. Right. Like we're not seeing Kingdom Hearts 4 at gamescom. Even though I'm sure Jeff would want that more than anything. Um, I mean, that comes back to

Jeff talking. Jeff being very vocal about what's going to be there, what you can expect there. Because I think opening on live is the one Jeff show currently where there's a lot of marketing to be done around getting people excited. And a lot of that is just making the show itself excellent, right? But I don't know if there's, I don't know what the struggle is with it from Jeff. I don't know if he views it as a, oh yeah, this is like basically a transition into when we get to game

awards. I don't know if he looks at it as a, this doesn't need to be the biggest thing in the world, or if it's just the struggle of getting devs to want to announce things around this time, getting devs to want to announce thing at opening night, opening night live in particular. But whatever it is, I feel like him being vocal about what's going to be there even more so this year than even previous years. I think it's him being like, pay attention to this. Like this is a thing. Like this is part of my trio of shows every single year. And this is what this show is.

Maybe not what he wants the show to be in the future, but it's what the show is this year. And I think that that's the right type of marketing. Like I will go through what he's already talked about, but it sounds like a very solid show. Maybe not the most exciting thing, but it is going to answer questions we've been asking. show us games that we've been looking forward to seeing or hearing more about or getting a release date for some of them. But before we get into the Jeff stuff there, do any of you have a prediction that you want to make? Any top level thing or anything that you just want to shoot your shot and call that you think might actually happen at this show? It's funny because I had one that immediately came to mind, but it turns out Jeff had already announced it.

I was going to say Indiana Jones, but that's part of the things he said is going to be there. So I'm going to say, I think we see some sort of hardware from either PlayStation or or Xbox, I'm going to go as far as to say a pro console. Wow. I think that's a lofty prediction, but I think we're... Barrett loves. They announced hardware at these things. Yeah, we got the DualSense Edge at this thing.

I forget if we got PlayStation 4 all as well, but we get hardware here sometimes. And for sure, this year, I think this fall we're going to get pro consoles either from PlayStation or Xbox or both. I think we see one of those end up here. Man, I just couldn't even fathom what could be announced here that isn't already on this list of stuff. Now he did sort of at the bottom of that tweet with all the stuff say, yes, there will be new

games announced. I don't think it's anything that's going to knock the doors down, you know? I got to assume it might be a sequel from a sort of double a game that we've been looking forward to or whatever. I just couldn't

even think of anything that would be that exciting to me that I'm like, oh, holy shit. All the cards are lining up and everything's going to have like fall into this place in this gamescom window. I got nothing. Silk song. No.

Is it time for Hollow Night's Silk Song? If we're shooting our shots. Definitely no. Can you this could be imagined? Of all the places that shows up at Open Day Live? There's no way. Just saying, I wonder what... If for shooting our shot, that's the one I want.

I wonder why Mike really wants Silk Song to pop up with the last possible... Did replace today announce that it got delayed to 2025? Am I now down a game and desperate? need Hollow Night Silk Song to come out and just be triumphant for my year. Yes. Oh, replaces on your list? And it also got counterpicks.

So I get no points for this. So, yes, I need Hollenite Silk Song this year. You're not going to get it. I'm just going to let you know that right now. But imagine if we did. Like that would be awesome for Jeff to be like,

motherfuckers, Gamescom actually mean something. But that's not happening. I honestly, it's funny because like with Hollow Night, I feel like the last couple showcases I was pretty like, hey, there's a high likelihood. It could be at these things.

For this, I literally think it's like a, like a zero percent chance. As close to zero as possible. If I'm Jeff and like the hollow night people came out to be in there like, you know, we want to announce Silk Song. Can we do it at Open Night Live? And as Jeff, I'd be like, nah, bro. Like, hold it for something. Yeah, like, hold it for something cool.

That's what we're waiting for them. What are they waiting for? Game Awards. That's what they're waiting for is game. I don't think they're waiting. I think they're working on the game. I think they're waiting for the game to be ready. But like, they're working on the game,

but like, what are we waiting for from this announcement? When is it time? I think anything else. I think literally like, something bigger than this? Something bigger. I think even an Xbox first party, like, developer. I forget what they called the thing where they... Developer underscore, even if it's that, right?

Like, I think anything that will give it a bit more backing. It also, it doesn't feel like it fits the vibe either. Yeah. This, when we look at the stuff that it's most likely to show up for, it's either a summer game fest showcase that already passed. it's similar to what Bless is just saying like some sort of Xboxing or Nintendo Direct. Yeah.

And I just don't see that sort of like, I don't know what that window is. Oh, wait. I mean, so there is something interesting in terms of just talking about the showcases that we have for the rest of the year because we know Game Awards, right, in December. Obviously, we have Gamescom here next week.

We know Tokyo Game Show is going to happen. No real press conference there, though. There's not like a keynote. There's not like a Sony conference or whatever. They might do a state of play. play, which at this point I think they will. There is, there has been a Nintendo Direct every September for the last like forever. I think like eight years or something.

You can correct me in the chat about the actual thing there. But do you expect a Nintendo Direct in September this year? Yeah. I'll say so. Right. I feel like it's September, February, June. Yeah. Is like clockwork we're getting these.

So yeah, I'd say I expect it. Yeah. So there will be a direct. Not saying Hollow Night will be there, but there is another opportunity that's before game awards, but not gamescom. I think that's more worthwhile than gamescom. Yeah, I agree. I'm interested in your prediction here, Blas, about the hardware.

Yeah. Like, because I'm, I don't think it is going to happen, but I think that it could happen. And the PS5 Pro needs to be announced at some point. And I don't think that it's going to be a big enough announcement that it needs its own showcase or anything. And I almost feel like it's more, if there is this PlayStation's State of Play, though, that's where they would do it. around Tokyo Game Show, right?

Like, if they are, imagine they announce Ghost and have the PS5 Pro. I mean, that'd be dope. I guess what timing would you want to have on it would be my question, right? Like, if it's coming out, when is Tokyo Game Show, actually? Is that September?

September. Because I guess you could do that because, well, you would release a pro console, say, in November. And so September to November, that's not that crazy. I mean, I also could see them being like, we want to get even more ahead of it, you know, give people that time

from August to November to make that happen. it's the end of the very end of September, September 26 through 29th. Yeah. But the thing is, it's a pro console. It doesn't need a long lead-in for marketing and promotion. All you need to do is put up a pre-order link, right? Yeah. And it's going to sell.

So the only reason why I even have like a any sort of, oh, I could see it being here is because we've seen PlayStation announced hardware here before with the PlayStation Edge. Pro hardware as well. Yeah. With the Edge. Now, you mentioned that you, it could be either. Xbox or PlayStation, are you leaning more heavily towards the PlayStation side?

I think I am leaning more heavily towards the PlayStation side. But that's just also, like, I'm trying to think of the way Xbox would announce it. I guess I could seem to do the same thing. That's the thing is, I think one of them is going to, it could be here. When did we get to Series X? Was that Game Awards? Yes. Yeah.

But is the new White Series X that's discless, is that official? Or is that just something that we all know is happening? because that could totally be here. You're not talking about like the cylindrical one. No, no, no. You're talking about just the series X. The series X. That is discless.

Yeah, so they're saying, people are saying yes. It's not an upgraded hardware. It's just, but like that's not a, that's not a console enhancement, right? That's just an iteration. That's a new skew.

Yeah. A different version. I guess I'm more confident in the PlayStation thing because I think we know the PlayStation thing's happening, at least in terms of rumors and reports and stuff. Xbox, where we're at with Xbox or is an Xbox pro console even happening?

Like Mike, you're more in that world. Is there any talks about that? Like an Xbox Pro console? No, not since the leaks that we saw before, but I haven't been keeping up with anything like that, so I don't know. Tim's disc-less Xbox series is slated for later this year.

Yeah, that was nice. And all white at the Summer Game Fest events. So I guess not Xbox in that case, because I think they would want to focus on this thing. Yeah. I mean, like, the last time we heard anything about console stuff was in that Sarah Bonn interview, right? Her mentioning just like, upcoming skews later on, I don't know if she ever put a date on it, but she mentioned the new versions. Yeah.

We'll see. But where's the cylinder? Where the fuck's the cylinder? We saw the legal documents. Where's the cylinder, goddammit? And the new controller. Where's this new, brand new controller that's going to be like the standard? new Xbox controller

that every new version will ship with from here on out like they announced that they were making new version that the share button and all this stuff was going to be in different spots I don't know if that includes new haptics I don't know if that's just like wish list type shit or whatever but I could have sworn that there was like a new controller that will be the new thing and I think it was in the same

docks as this goddamn cylinder where's the cylinder where's the cylinder show me the cylinder Let's get into what we know will be there. Jeff has been tweeting a lot here. Call of Duty Black Op 6 will be at Opening Night Live. Tune in for the first campaign play-through reveal live from Germany. Mike, this gets you going.

Yeah, this gets me excited. I mean, last year we did see Modern Warfare 3 appear at Opening Night Live in a similar fashion of campaign. If you look at the timeline of what's happening, the following week, I'm in D.C. for Kodnex, which is showcased in the call of duty multiplayer. So it's a perfect place to show off the campaign. The campaign to me for this one looks really exciting. I'm pumped for Black Op 6. I'm excited to get away from what was Modern Warfare 3

and that insane idea of a small open world. Oh, this is a half put together campaign. So I think a full-fledged Call of Duty campaign is going to go really far for this game, especially with Black Ops where people really enjoy that. And so I'm pumped up about this. and to see a mission play through or the start of a mission.

I think you got a good one, especially because they're setting the tone for like a heist in the middle of this, so that could be really cool to see. Blesser, Andy. Any interest in this? Oh, I'm super jazzed for whatever the campaign will be. I'm excited to get correspondence from Mike as he's in D.C.

That's what I'm most excited about. What the hell is he going to get into over there? I bought a vlog camera for this. I'm going to blog. It's going to be great. It's going to be insane. He's going to end up like in the Oval Office. We won't see

Multiplayer at Gamescom, will we? No, you'll get campaign Because multiplayer will be next week So I don't think you'll see that I'm more curious about multiplayer than campaign But yeah, I'm down to see more Black Ops And then next up The is confirmed that Don't Nod's

Lost Records Bloom and Rage Will be there. We've got our first look at gameplay Bless exciting, very exciting Yeah, that's one that looks cool I'm like It's a weird one when both this And The New Life is Strange

are on the horizon. And so, like, I think don't nod figuring out how to separate this a bit from the Life of Strange thing is going to be necessary. I forget which one got delayed into next year

and which one is coming out this fall. I think this is next year now. Is this one the one that moved because they're like, let's get away from Life of Strange. I think so. Yeah. Yeah, I'm excited to see more.

And maybe rebrand because every time I hear this title, I just think of a Blumen Onion. I also think of the Blumen Onion. Good. Yeah, I'm curious to see what makes it stand out, what makes it different,

what on the gameplay mechanic's side are you doing to like you know set yourself apart because even the life of strange games all have their own thing going on right life of strange one was you're playing as max and you have like the time rewind powers life strange true colors you're an empath and you're reading people's emotions what are you doing in this game is there going to be more straightforward is there going to be like a supernatural element that changes up the way that you're actually playing the game i'm excited to see yeah looks cool uh and then next up we got we know we're going to get indiana jones in the great circle um get a new look at it.

This is release date time, right, baby? Oh, yeah, that's a good point. I was going to ask, are we getting over exposed to Indiana Jones? I feel like now when we see more gameplay, there's a level of like, all right. Like, I feel like we're not blown away the more easy. I mean, I get sold less and less on it.

Yeah. I don't know what it is about the gameplay and about the whole overall, like, tone and vibe of it. I think it's just one that you need to have in your hands. Like, I'm, I got to that point with Black Mouth Wu Kong where I was like enough with, I've seen a million goddamn trailers enough.

Like, please just, you know, get us the dang game. But, yeah, I don't know if this is going to be another sort of gameplay snippet. If it's just more of a hype thing, maybe it's all just CG. Yeah, I don't know. I'm kind of interested to see where they're at in their marketing cycle. I mean, this to me is a perfect example of a gamescom thing. We have a major game that we have a question we need answered. What is the release date?

We're going to get it. I feel like 100% lock. We're getting the release date at this event. I hope it is a hype little sizzle because I'm with you. We've been seeing a lot of this game at this point. Just answer our questions. Don't over show things because I do feel like it's going to work against this game in particular. But going around the table, making some predictions here, what is the release date?

Is it December or do they pull it off, Mike? Do they get it in November? It's December. I'm going to go with first week of December. No, I'm going to go with December 10th. December 3rd. The chat, Jace is saying January.

Felix is saying February. I will, yeah, I'm going to put in my hat here for February 7th or 14th of next year. Isn't that right before about? Isn't about February 16th?

That was February. What is the reason why we're not thinking it's going to hit by November? There were reports that the internal kind of goal was December and that was like earlier in the year and I just with that tight of a window especially after Black Friday I think that's just

such a weird place to release a game like Indiana Jones so I just I don't think it hits this year so I'll rescind my February if I've vowed got yeah I think of Vaud is February like 11th or something like that I'm gonna say January 24th something in my gut tells me

because a vowed got moved, this is moving up. Yeah, that's where I'm at to you. Oh, interesting. I think a vow being moved, I think there's pressure on Indiana Jones to come out this year. And a lot needs to line up and video games are hard and so much. But for some reason, I'm feeling November. I'm also, I'm, as I look at Blessing Super Fun game release calendar, of course, you know, Black Op. 6 comes out October 25th.

I think Xbox is going to want to give that some, they're going to want to give that some space to breathe. Also, it's a busy time anyway, even without that. November, you start to get into a flight simulator. the question then becomes how much does Microsoft care or Xbox care about like those two games coming out too close to each other? They're very different audiences but they are both

first party big games right I'm thinking since flight simulator 2024 is coming out November 19th I'm gonna say November, did you say 29th what did you say? I just said November I'm gonna say November 29th I feel on the earlier side of November

but not the last week in November no before the last week That's where I'm at. Then do you think it gets a Black Friday soon? Well, that's sale, but I think that's like... That's what November 29th is also, that is Black Friday. That is Black Friday? There's no way a game release is coming out the weekend of Thanksgiving.

No, that's a good point. That's a very good point, actually. Yeah, then I would say the 15th... Think about football, you know? But that's, see, the 15th of the Assassin's Street Shadows. Don't, I don't think you want to... Yeah, you wouldn't want to do that. Well, that's a bad call.

I also don't think that it's the type of thing that will actually affect them making that choice, though, like it being a Ubisoft game versus a Microsoft game, like... Yeah, but like, I think they benefit from both, right? I mean, I agree. Xbox benefits from Assassin's Gris, Shadow's doing well.

So then I start to look at Tuesdays. I guess, you know, flight simulator, that releases on a Tuesday, so they're not against Tuesdays here. They're not anti-Tuesday. Mike ride it down, right? We like Tuesdays. Here's a big question. When is the election? November 5th.

November 5th. That is actually a great call. So I don't think you do November 5th. I'm going to say the 12th, November 12th. Final answer. Wow. Wow. Finally answer.

Oh, that's the same day as Anton Blast. So stoked for Anton Blast. Yeah, I don't know. I don't need to pick a specific date. I'm just saying like I think it's November. If I need to, I mean the 12th sounds the most likely. Writing it down, Chen. When is Shadow's coming out?

You said the 15th. Yeah. I think like if it comes in November, I'm still sticking with my January guess, but I could see it launching on the 15th. You know what? I'm with Barrett. I was Barrett 20th. And Stocker 2 has a lot of ties to Xbox. Stocker 2 is November 20th?

They don't like Tuesdays. Oh, then get out in November then. Fuck, yeah. God. Yeah, Stalker makes an honest. Stalker's coming out in November also. Because I get the kind of mindset of like maybe they pushed to Vowd to move Indy up and give India's room. But like there is no room right now.

That's why a vowed got pushed because we don't even know fucking Dragon Age's release. state like that's crazy god that's a good point you know soccer soccer soccer when did it get delayed uh like like a week or two ago i feel like because it's originally supposed to come out in september this must have been during my week off because yeah in my calendar i have a september 5th missing link says is stock or even a threat to indy i wouldn't say it's a threat to indy but it's a threat to xbox's game pass marketing strategy like they're they're not going to want to step on themselves that way with game pass specifically but my whole thing with indy is indy's the type of game that they need to actually sell copies of stores. Like that's the whole point of the IP of Indiana Jones. So it's going to be interesting,

but we're going to get some answers next week. Now I'm leaning December. Or do we? I am leaning December now. Remember when we thought Helplade was going to get its release day at a fucking game awards last year and then they did that whole like live audience like performance shit? And then we didn't get a date. Fonged. You got that date what like a month later at the developer underscore direct? I think so. That's crazy. That is crazy. That is crazy. Here's my crazy prediction now. We don't get a date, and it happens exactly like Bless is saying. We don't get a date either until game awards or a developer underscore.

Well, they can't wait until game awards. Because, like, the game is slated to come out this year. Unless they come up before game awards and go, hey, it's not coming out this year. They can't wait until game awards. Have they officially said anything about 2024, though? Yeah. They were like fall or end of 2024. I forget they're phrasing.

I think even in the Xbox Showcase this year. They said 2034. They need a win. Xbox needs this. They always need a win. 2020, 2020. What are they not for them? They need this here.

We've done another year of the front half being completely bleak and empty. And then we look at the back half and we have too many games. And then we don't know what to do with them. And then they get pushed. They need to start really lining this up. Yeah. I'm saying with now the info about soccer, I'm saying December. Well, everybody, we're going to keep going through what's been officially

revealed to be at Gamescom and our thoughts and predictions on that stuff, but after a word from our sponsor. This episode is brought to you by Monster Hunter Now. There's never been a better time to jump in and play Monster Hunter now. The game allows you to embark on a global quest in the real world to track down and hunt monsters from the Monster Hunter universe with your friends.

Yeah, just a quick question in the vein of prediction still. Is there anything they could show you in an indie trailer? Like, think about, you know, the tropes of the movie. Think about, like, things that you'd expect from an Indiana Jones movie to, like, make a return in a video game. Is there anything they can show along the lines of that that can get you hype this trailer? No. Give me the return of short rounds. Oh, okay.

Yeah. See, I was, I was thinking less of a trailer. I feel like they need to do like a full level walkthrough of like what the vibe of moment to moment gameplay looks like. I just need the song in a release date. That's all that's needed here. I'm with you, my. It's like 45 seconds of action, action, action, action, the song building up and then the release date at the end. I think that's what it needs to be.

That's all I need. Like, we already saw kind of what Barrett was talking about the first time it was showing off at the developer underscore direct where it's walking through you put your hands on the wall you grab that little piece and it i don't think the game benefits from showing off that slow gameplay i think you need to show off the hype you need to have the music going off it's a sizzle real it's a punch of a nazi it's an explosion it's like we need to like kind of show this off in a way that gets more of like the action oriented crowd going because i think if you start to show off slower puzzles i don't know if that does anything for anybody

And bless, if you want a short round, I don't know if you saw the D23 news, he's returning for the ride in Disney World. Like, have you been on the Disneyland Indiana Jones ride? Oh, yes, I have. You know, when you're going through, you're waiting in the line and there's like the video playing and like they're like setting you up for the story. The Disney World indie ride that they're doing, they're retrofitting the dinosaur ride to be a new Indiana Jones ride. And Kaye Khae Kwan's reprising his role. Is he an adult? short round.

Oh, wow. He's acting. They haven't officially confirmed it's an older show round. It's going to be a fucking old show round. Which is cool as hell. That's cool. Really interesting.

Really quick. I don't want them to show off like a puzzle thing, Andy. It's more so of like this is still going to be an action game where you're taking out like Nazis and shit with your whip and your gun. And I feel like that needs to be showed off a little bit more. Just to again,

to show off more of like what the moment to moment gameplay of a machine games in Indiana Jones game looks like. Because I feel like we've only gotten little snippets. And if this game does come out this year, I feel like people are going to want to see that. I just think of like the kind of slow movement with the guy and that he whips him and there's kind of a fist fight. And it was just really underwhelming. And I don't know if there's, maybe they've worked on it since then. And maybe they want to show off new developments in that sort of like, how did we make this more enticing? I think this game is going to live or die based on first

gameplay impressions from media. Like I feel like the right move here is you put out the release date with this. You just have the fun sizzle with the action scenes. You do not show gameplay. It's just like fun, fun, fun, hype, hype. And then hopefully soon we get people played it and they liked it. And here's why they liked it and explain all the thoughts on it. You know, Xbox doesn't do demos really, do they? Like put a demo on the store. That would be wild. Because if you could have like a, do that, because if you could have like a 30 minute playable thing that fans could just download off the store and play, I think that would do a lot for this game. I think it's been a minute since they've done something like that. Especially for a game.

this big, right? Like a core Xbox title. That'd be wild though. I mean, like if they, if they believed in enough to get in people's hands like that, that'd be sick as hell. I don't think that's going to happen, though.

Moving on, Dune Awakening is going to be there. An extended look at gameplay. Finally. Dune Awakening. Which one is this? Is this the MMO? I got to preview this at Summer Game Fest.

And I was pleasantly surprised. I was kind of into it. Yeah, I feel like they've not shown much gameplay of this game off in like events and stuff so I think them putting it in front of people is going to be good. From what I saw at Summer Game Fest, like it it's a survival, MMO

style game, but like watching it has some of the feels of something like a tiny bit more actiony, not too actiony, but like you know, it is third person behind the back you are playing as somebody in the Dune universe, you are aligning yourself with like the Harkinen's. The Duneverse, excuse me. This is a universe where

Shalami like never existed, right? Yeah, Timothy Shaleman. A, yeah, never existed. What was it named? Dave? Assumption. Paul. Paul. Paul Erites. Yeah, wasn't born. I think the

Atreides family had like a daughter instead and like they didn't go through the same path. So yeah, the Harkinans, or not the Harkinens. I don't want to say sane people because that seems me. I don't feel like I can call them that. But they're not here. That's also a Star Wars term. Oh, is it? Yeah.

They're not here. The Fremen. The Fremen aren't present. Yeah. And so it is like the they're going to be added through DLC positively. But yeah, it is. You're aligning yourself with the Atreides family or with the Harkinns and doing cool stuff. Who's building this stuff? They show a lot of building.

Like, it's like rust almost. And we just played once human, which was the MMO with a lot of survival crafting in it. And we saw how insane that looked with people just building just insane houses all over the place. Am I the one building all this in this game? Yeah. I think so. Yeah.

Like this is a survival kind of MMO video game. It was described. or maybe I was talking to somebody else in the press who were saying it feels like more of a community-driven MMO experience. Oh, what is the comparison? Hold up. I have my notes somewhere. I'll find it. I did like that I talked to James Williams

about this because he got to play this at Summer Game Fest. And I was like, yeah, how do you really show off different biomes? And he goes, oh, that's a great question. Because you go to like, this is the red sand place. And this is the blue sand place. It's literally like, oh, here's the sand place. And then here's the very aggressive sand place. with the sandstorm

and that's your PVP area and I'm just like all right man it sounds kind of cool I guess this is white sand but it's not cold it really is like that I think it looks awesome

I think anytime they've shown visuals of it it looks kind of it's like the same vibes that you had the first time you saw Black Desert online and were like man this character creator looks

way too good to be an MMO that's how the visuals sort of strike me in this game I just it seems a little too promising and I'm kind of like we'll get it in my hands I want to see how it actually plays because I love

sort of like these survival online games we'll see how it actually works in theory you know the moment where I got a bit sold on it was when they showed the like their little helicopter thing the ornithopter that has wings like a firefly and they're like you can

unlock this at level 40 and I was like fuck yeah that sounds awesome yeah dude what I told you you can fly that right now Microsoft flights them No way. Right now. What to play? Let's play.

I don't hit level 40? I'll just put you in it. Ah, dang. We're thrilled to share that fans can expect a new look at Monster Hunter Wilds during Gamescom opening in live. That was another prediction that I had that I was like, oh, Jeff spoiled it. Yeah. So, I mean, obviously, I know there's a lot of hype for this game here.

Is there anything y'all need to see? Does, do you feel like, obviously this is a, this is a gamescom thing, right? Like, we're going to get, we're just getting more of a thing that we already know, but is there something you're looking? for here. I mean, I just get, I get excited just seeing any of this game. It's so freaking gorgeous. I love Monster Hunter World is really the one that got me into the franchise. I'm just excited to be back into it. Show me whatever you need to show me. Show me new gigantic enemies with new weapon types and the sort of transforming weapons. I'm a sucker for all of it. I'm super jazzed about

this. I love seeing the animals fighting in the wild, Tim. That's what my favorite things. Because it always just feels so like unplanned and like of course the designers and coders are making that shit happen but it's just so cool to like oh fuck I was just fighting you like yesterday now you're fighting this other monster

and I'm trying to hunt it's just really cool it feels like you know watching nature actually happen in real life. This feels like the start to end full mission right we're going to go out on a full hunt you're going to accept the hunt you're going to leave this starting area wherever that base is

you're going to go out and do the hunt and then we'll see it to completion. That's what this feels like to me is what we're going to do. It's like a 30 minute walker. I mean, I think you get some 15 minute ones and they'll cut out some of the fat, but I feel like this is the area because we've already seen so much of it. I don't really need to see more besides like Andy. I just like

seeing Monster Hunter, but I could see seeing a full mission hunt on this one. I don't know if there's been a bigger glow up visually and from a game franchise. Interestingly enough, when I was looking for B-roll for this, they have been putting out like weapon breakdown like every day for like the last week or so.

So I definitely see where Mike's coming from where I think we'll get like a kind of bigger kind of thing. Yeah. I'd love to be on the marketing team for this game. Get that insect late. Because like I would be, I would make a YouTube channel that was just like some national geographic shit or like animal planet where every like every video is just like us looking at nature and us looking at how like the creatures interact and really being like, oh here

you see a Ratholos and like you just follow along the Ratholos for a while. That's smart. Here's how they made. How they made. Get a look at the gameplay of Kingdom Come Deliverance too From more host War Horse Studios During opening out live Mike

We almost got sent to Poland for this Almost There was a chance we could have gone to Poland To go see this game You know a lot of people really talked about the first one And that's what got me excited about the possibility Of maybe trying this second one out So we'll see

I would like to see more of it I'd like to see it in action And if I would really buy into this but a lot of people talked about the first one. So it's like, okay, you're on my list of a hard maybe here. Is this the game that just had a very different tone than what I expected, where it's a lot more comedic and, like, Monty Python adjacent? Well, I think maybe those are just some of the sequences they showed up,

but there's definitely a lot of humor and a lot of relationship building with these NPCs. But yeah, I think you thought it was going to be more of, like, a one? Just serious, like. Oh, okay. because the first time that I saw this game, I thought it was a medieval version of what's the Ubisoft game where you're all just kind of melee fighting for?

I thought it was that sort of video game. And then I remember, oh shit, no, never mind. This is a gigantic big RPG that a lot of people really loved when it got released. And it seemed like it's totally up my alley. I don't know why I never really gave it a real shot. But I think it looks gorgeous. It seems just really well thought out

in terms of how the characters interact and I think the writing is impressive so far. So it's one that I, you know, I'll keep my eye on. I don't know if I'll actually give it the old college try, but I'll boot that sucker up. Then next up we have tune in to Games Cowell opening out live for the announcement of the next game from Tarzier Studios, the creators of Little Nightmares 1 and 2.

Yeah, we saw that little tease of that pig walking with the guts falling out on Twitter. That's right. And everybody was like, Bloodborn, baby. The big pig. Yeah, I mean, it's, Little Nightmers 3 most likely, right? No, that's been working on a different developer. Yeah, isn't that being worked on by Dark Pictures Anthology, People, Supermassives?

That's right. Yeah. Yeah, at least they're... They're doing something on it. I can look it up. Oh, shoot. Yeah, I think this is going to be a new project. Yeah, it's being developed by Supermassive Games, still published by Bandai Namco.

Yeah. That was the big Hullabaloo one. They announced the third one. gotcha gotcha cool it would be fun to see that did any of you play little nightmares one or two Roger did

I was too scared it's where because it seems like my kind of game I feel like I would probably love Little Nightmares if I played it but yeah I think you did the first I had to play the first one not the entire thing for IGN because that's how long it's been since the first one which is crazy

very freaky very weird really into it next up Mikey gameplay world Premier, Sid Myers, Civilization 7. Very excited. Very excited for this one. Can't wait.

You know, it's a beloved 2K franchise that we all wanted. And so now you get it. You're such a fuck. I love you. That's what we got. I'm excited for this. I know your hype for this, but like, is there something that you're looking for here? We're getting the gameplay world premiere. Do we have a release date for this? Do we have a window?

No, nothing off the top of my head. I've been playing a lot of SIV 6 lately to get excited for Siv 7 to talk with all of you, a out it's, but I'm personally not looking for anything massive. I think it's very tough to really change up. That will probably get some new awesome leaders that we've never gotten before. How leader do you want?

That's a great question. Yeah, who do you want? Jesus. Jesus. But no, this is exciting stuff for people who are into Siv. Yeah. And then the last thing here is Sadcat Studio says it's going to bring replaced to Gamescom next week, allowing players to attend, attending the event in Cologne, Germany,

to go hands-on with the game. Additionally, the developer says it has something special plan for later this week, for those who won't be able to attend. Presumable, we can expect a new trailer. So we were talking about this on games daily a little bit. It's a little weird because this is, this doesn't come from Jack. This was a different tweet. But I assumed, oh, we're going to get a trailer at Gamescom for this.

But Gamescoms next week. So they're saying later this week in the... Did they say this before the... delay? That's part of the Oh, okay. It actually says later this week expect something. So I think it was Barrett brought up like, are we getting a demo sometime this week? That could be interesting for

replaced, but I'm still thinking we'd get a trailer at Gamescom for it. Oh, yeah. I just think it's weird that they say later this week for people who can attend when Gamescom is next week. Yeah. It would be weird to release a trailer

before game, like opening night live so yeah, that's... Now as weird as this is maybe they just mean later within the seven days and they put that out on Tuesday and it's Tuesday you know what I mean? No, you would say next week. I don't know. Maybe. Yeah, I don't know.

Tuesdays are weird. We know this. We've learned what time zone? What time zone are the devs in? Maybe they're still in last week. That's, I mean, maybe they're next week. Maybe they're still in last week. I don't know. It's tomorrow in Australia. Yeah. You never know.

It's last week somewhere. Everybody's like, oh shit, we got to fix this. Oh, man. It's been a tear. We got a super chat from CJ Splits on saying Dream Bigger Showcase. Ghost 2. Death Stranding 2. Kojima already confirmed.

That is an excellent question. Kojima. Is he confirmed? For opening night live? Yeah. Because I didn't see that anywhere. Are they talking about Tokyo Game Show? Oh, maybe that's it.

Oh, maybe that's from earlier. Dream Bigger. Showcase. not a state of play, have Death Stranding 2. Oh, that doesn't make sense. Oh, I guess a showcase around Tokyo Game Show, because Kojima's can turn for that. Interesting.

CJ follows up, says, I meant for TGS. Yeah. I mean, yeah, there's a lot there. Again, Death Stranding 2, known quantity. It's not like we're waiting for that game to be announced. It is announced. So now it's like we just need the updates for it. And knowing Kojima and knowing how Death Stranding 1 had its rollout,

we're going to see this game a lot. You know what I mean? We're going to get a lot of character reveals. We're going to get a lot of weird ass gameplay bits, big extended trailers, tiny little things. I mean, are we going to see it a lot? With Death Stranding 1, I feel like that was quite secretive, at least with its gameplay, right? Like, that was one where I feel like people didn't truly know what that game was until you got your hands on. And you're like, oh, this is what this is what this game is.

I wonder if there's a similar aspect here. Like, I think story and narrative stuff, for sure, I think we're going to get more cinematic stuff. But even like getting Jeff Keely in the game and like all those little weird things. True. We're going to see a lot of the game. Like what? that means, I don't know. Yeah, I remember the TGS thing. I remember waking up to TGS news about like, oh, you throw grenades of your own piss. That was like, yeah, that was a big night cycle

of news where like, yeah, you fucking, yeah, you never play Death Shanny? Yeah, I just like when you say thrown his bottle. It's crazy that, though, before we knew that, though, before we knew what the game was. Like, we saw, obviously, we saw people walking up hills and shit, right? We were like, oh, we just saw a lot of walking. And then they're like, yeah, you could throw grenades a piss. You're like, what the fuck are you doing in this video game? Yeah, it was very, very confusing, but yeah. Connect the knots. Now, I want to go a little bit off back to opening night live because Tim, you skipped the big one. You skipped the game of the summer. Oh, did I? Marvel Rivals. Oh, shit, you're right. I did.

My dad. Wow, you really skipped the game in the summer, too? I don't know how I skipped this. That's unbelievable. Oh, he's on something different. He's not on the tweet like you. Oh, I just looked at Jeff Kee's tweet. Oh, man. I definitely, I must have copy and paste that to the wrong dock yesterday. Do you have it there to read? Well, he just talked about that. Marvel rivals is also going to be on that list. We get a lot of it. I did see something about new hero. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry.

If you go to, Jeff has, like, throughout his tweets, he's been doing, like, one-off tweets for each of these things. Okay, here. For new heroes and updates is all it has. And then there's an image, a teaser image that's Black Panther. Looking up at a big Black Panther in the sky. So, Black Panther was already in the... Yeah, that's interesting.

In the access. So I don't know if maybe this is Shuri or a variant. Yeah. No, I see the image on his Twitter. So that's fascinating because I don't know. Maybe they're just using that imagery for no reason. I don't know. Yeah, it's weird to use just a Black Panther.

Yeah, because Black Panther was very much in that early access. A Black Panther themed level maybe. Possibly. Yeah, that's very, very possible. Yeah, yeah. But the new hero, Storm. No. Black Panther got it.

Oh, no. Tewews already in there. Storm's already in there. So recently we had Thor enter in and we also had Jeff the cute baby shark That was fun And so yeah what else will be there Are we even near release date?

It's a weird thing of like We've gotten two beta alphas already now We're now in the cycle of we know it's 2025 Are we putting a date on this? Are we just kind of going in on Hey here's some more cool characters that you're going to see And then we'll see it in 2025 again? I think they announced another beta period

another sort of alpha period or whatever. Yeah, I think it's too early for like an official date at this point, right? Yeah. It's unfortunate because I want this game. Have we talked about, I know he didn't mention it, Dragon Age? Because that game still is coming out this fall. He doesn't have a release date. Do we get that here?

I mean, I think he would have been, I think he would have put it on the list. Well, I mean, there's no list. He's still updating these. We're a week away. We had a week left of tweets from it. So I think that we... Well, I guess I'm just looking at the top tweet, the most, like, one of the most recent tweets where he shows like the six games or whatever.

Yeah. And he also states in that thing. Yes, there will be new announcements or whatever. Jumps, uh, 004 says Dragon Age confirmed not opening night live by Jeff. How about that? So, uh, Andy, you're the Dragon Age guy. Yeah. What's up?

Why do we not have a release date? Shit. I have no idea. It's where do we get it? It's kind of scary. Oh, yeah. When do we get it? At this point, I don't think that there's anything in the next,

I don't think there's any real event that would really kind of be a place to house a Dragon Age sort of announcement. Like, if it was going to happen, it would have been opening night live. Because I think this game will come out in October or November, maybe December. But at this point, I feel like it's just going to be like a random press release. Yeah, Grub was saying, I think, someone in the chat said, Grub said late October is what he was reporting. Remind me, Andy, this was, when they showed off this gameplay reveal

that I was just showing for B-roll, wasn't that also just kind of like a random drop or something? Like, it wasn't a part of like an official stream or event or someone else's thing. No, because we saw that, we saw that at Summer Game Fest. Right, but I'm talking officially for the public. Well, like the Summer Game Fest announcement that they showed off was, the sort of trailer that was almost borderlands-ish, where it was like, we're going to need a so-and-so, and it shows the hero, the person that they're talking about,

and a lot of people were very turned off by that. And I knew tomorrow they're going to reveal the gameplay thing. So, like, they showed off that thing, knowing that the next day they were going to show off this big gameplay snippet. So it was within the week. It was like the very, very next day. Chun 2D2 in the chat said,

is there any chance that the Game Informer cover was going to be the release date information? I find that unlikely just because of how release date info comes out. I don't think that you reveal that in magazines. As far as I know, Game Informer doesn't typically do dates. You know what I mean? I feel like they were also, and I might be remembering this incorrectly, they were teasing that it was going to be a JRP-R-G-related thing. So my personal guess was that their thing that they were working on was a metaphor.

But I don't know. That's a good call. Oh, and then the chat's saying they already did a Dragon H4 cover. Yeah, they already did, yeah. It was a big, great writer by Wesley. Then is there a chance if there is a PlayStation state of play that it would show up there? That feels wrong to me, but. Yeah, I don't know why I also feel like it's, I would almost put it more Xbox adjacent.

But maybe that's just my mind doing things because, like, I'm almost thinking about a, what if they did have another developer underscore direct, where you could. throw this in is one of the games because they do that sometimes where they'll have third party stuff in there. Like the fact that it's already August and we're looking at this game I'm thinking more November but if Grubbs here in like

Octoberish murmurs around the industry, I just don't know what's in between now and then. That isn't Gamescom. Unless you get one of these stealth drops like hey Xbox thing happening tomorrow and not actually

tomorrow but you know in a month from now Xbox randomly saying in the way that Nintendo does, hey, tomorrow's state of play. I just don't see that happening. I feel like it's just going to be like a random Jaggon H tweets out and puts on all their like news blasts. Hey, tomorrow keep an eye out in these channels, keep an eye out on whatever

for a big update or whatever. Totally. Does it really need a big update? Doesn't it just need, hey, here's the release day now? No, no, no. I mean, that's what Andy said. Well, yeah, like, to me it's like, we're not even doing an event anymore. It's like, oh, it's just going to be a tweet. Oh, I don't see them doing an update. I just see them.

I'm saying like, you know, in order to hype it up in some way. Keep an eye out here. Yeah. Here being Twitter. Yeah, right? Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, okay, we got through all the stuff that we know is going to be there. Um, I, this is almost a joke, uh, but just, I have a general section here. Judas, Hollow Night Silk Song, Wonder Woman, 007. I love that we always have this list of games.
