Today, we start season three. Get ready for Game Showdown. Yo, what's up? Welcome to Game Showdown. I'm your host, Blessing, Adioia Jr. And I'm joined by three contestants representing three teams. We got Tim Geddes representing Team Blue. What's up?

We got Andy Cortez representing Team Purple. Man, I just don't know. Scared. Hello. We got Greg Miller representing Team Orange. Oh, it's been building up. I'm ready for the show. You look like you're in pain.

Why are you in so much pain? Oh, my God. Moments to go before the show started, Greg tweeted, Let's ruin Tim's 2025. And it's complete silence as the show's about to start, and I don't know where... It's been building up. I've just been ready.

I've just been hungry. You know, I haven't lost in 2025, and I don't expect to lose in 2025. I can't look at him. I can't look at him, blessing. I mean, we should jump off the fact that you are correct. You have not lost in 2025

because coming into this year, you won the Stars in the Bank briefcase. We did a tournament at the kind of funny anniversary to start off this year of Game Showdown. You won Stars in the Bank, which means at some point during this season, you'll be able to cash in your contract to challenge either Andy or 10.

to steal one of their stars. And we know who it's going to be. Tim. We know who's stars I'm coming for. The two-time winner, season one, me, season two, me. Season three, tell me right now. Me. Ladies, gentlemen, and bees.

Season one and season two did belong to Tim, but that was from a previous decade. All right, that was kind of fun his first 10 years. This is kind of funny. Who's talking right now? And as you know I am, of course, Stars in the Bank winner. You know, of course,

I am the final season of Konda Feudy's champion, all right? Man, wow, that car really wore off. Season 13. Never forget everybody. And as you probably remember, when I won the case, what did I win? You won the ability to cash in the Stars of the Bank contract to steal a star.

And as I declared there, and you didn't argue at the time, I declared that it was a new decade. It was a new season. It was a new season of my life. All right? Spring's gone. Now it's summer. All right? This is the summer of Greg Dandy.

April Shaper Sharks. And one of the things I said was that I felt very confident in the blue chair as the money in the bank suitcase man. I could take it. And you said, okay. So Tim get up. Wow. Whoa. Whoa.

Blue and yellow are switching. I hate this. Bless, what do you say as the leader of the circus? I don't remember saying yes, but I do remember that. I do remember that, Bless. Yeah, I remember it being said and none of us fighting him on it. Yeah, I don't think I follow him. No one cares about me, the two-time winner of the show, you know?

He is unbelievable. He did win the stars in the bank briefcase. I saw it. So you're just taking Team Blue? That's right. I'm Team Blue this season. I also thought... And I think it's kind of...

I mean, it's kind of funny. You know, no pun intended. Season one, season two, he wins in this chair. Then I sit in this chair once. I win stubby's in the bank. Is it the man or isn't the chair? Find out today. There's no way this is going to confuse a lot going forward.

There's no way this is going to screw things up. Earlier before the show started, I was like, I really thought that these black Velcro things on a shirt was a Greg bit, but I see he's wearing one too, so luckily I know that I'm safe and he said Don't worry, it's not, but I have a lot of bits planned. And he laughed when I agree and then said, which of my hands is

real? This is dull. Everybody, for 10 years I kept it together for you people. Now, you're, it's I'm fucking the Joker over here. All right, don't you worry about it. Well, like always, we're going to start off with a trivia question worth 10 points and the change to go first.

Man. Sorry, not the change is go first. the change to earn 10 points. Contestants, are you ready? Yes, ready, yeah. Buzz in to answer. In 2022, the Game Awards introduced a new category called Best Adaptation to recognize media adapted from video games, including films, television shows, and more. The inaugural nominees were Arcane, Cyberpunk Edge Runners, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Uncharted,

and a Netflix animated series based on which video game? Greg Miller. Castlevania is incorrect. Jim Gettys. The Witcher. The Witcher is incorrect. Andy Cortez. Dragon Age.

Dragon Age is incorrect. The correct answer, Cuphead. Oh, shit. That was the Cuphead show. I forgot that. I forgot a two-season Cuphead show. Yeah, debuted in 2022 and was, yeah, one of the first nominated

Netflix animated show. I know what he gets points for that round. I got a little golden book based on that for Ben. It's terrifying at the end. Cuphead? Yeah. Oh, yeah. One of the episodes, you know.

Oh. Golden book. You know, golden books, little kid books? Golden books. Oh, the brand. Oh, okay. Publishing arm. They stop making original stuff and just take episodes of TV. Smart. I'm learning a lot about Mario, though. A lot of names for these things.

You know what I mean? What thing? They only name Bowser Jr., would I say the other Kupelings? And then there's a Wendy in. Ludwig. And then they got a whole, like, you know, like, here's like the, the, obviously I knew the Gumba. You know what I mean?

Or there's a couple other guys in there, abercadabra or something. I don't know. I only read it twice. There's a couple guys in there I never heard this man's name. It's one of the Beatles. You know, little guys? John?

Yeah. They were fucking beat. Nah, that's good. That's good, Barry. It's good, Barry. It's good, Barry. You know what I mean? You never know.

Of course, this is the season premiere. We're watching a breakdown. A crash out. It's the season premiere. For season three newcomers, you might be asking, what is Game of Showdown? Or each week, we're playing nerdy trivia games

Today are brought to you by BetterHelp ExpressVPN and Meundees, but we'll tell you about that later. For now, let's play Round Robin. The rules are simple. Round Robin is a pretty straightforward question and answer game about video games. I'll give you a question. You have your buzzers that you'll use to buzz in and answer said question. question, you can buzz in once per round.

If you give the correct answer, that is 10 points. Contestants, are you ready? Yes. Yeah. I don't know what, are Roger asking about a beverage? I gave Roger the civil. Crack? And he comes with the Coke.

It's fucking 136. I like a beer, please. It's been a beer. We definitely have a... We don't have the... We don't have the Mexican beers there anymore. If I go in there as a Mexican beer, you bet your ass you're in trouble.

Rodg, do it with me and says, all right? He pays us. Which hand is real? For the love of God, do what he says. Which hand is real? He's also busy managing the buzzers. Let's start off with round number one. Super Smash Brothers for the N64

was Nintendo's first for Ray into the all-star platform fighting franchise featuring eight characters at the start and four unlockable characters, including Captain Falcon, Luigi, jigglypuff, and which Super Nintendo JRP protagonist? Drag Miller.

Ness. Ness is the correct answer. I think the blue buzzer goes faster than this. That's not fair. Is it the man or the chair, everybody? That would Tim be saying that if he got the blue buzzer? Who knows? No, it would it be.

Round number two. From Software games feature deep lore in tough combat. Their games also feature a special Easter egg, a weapon which can be wielded in every game except Sekiro, where instead you can see the divine dragon wield it. What is the name of this weapon? Moonlight Great Sword. Moonlight Great Sword is the correct answer.

That is 10 points. Damn. That would have been good. It would be really good. Round number three. In 2011, a standalone non-canon entry into a PlayStation franchise was released following the main character's transformation

into a vampire. This game features comic cutscene generation as well as support for the PlayStation Move Controller. What was this title called? One more time. One more time. In 2011, a standalone non-canon entry into a PlayStation franchise was released following the main character's

transformation into a vampire. This game features comic cutscene generation Greg Miller. Infamous Festival of Blood. Infamous Festival of Blood is the correct answer. I was infamous blank blood. Infamous Blank Blood. Why can't I get there? That is 10 more points for Greg Miller.

Round number four. In The Witcher 3, The Wild Hunt, Sasha is the alias of which character. Sasha is the alias of which character. Greg Miller. Siri. Siri is incorrect. Barrett, before you answer,

Barrett, I need you to wipe the points of Greg Miller. Greg is back down to zero. Yes. I love this game. Contestants, today, we're not just playing round robin. We're playing rogue Robin.

In this rogue light mode, any mistake means your points are wiped out and you start back from zero. Oh, shit. Now I'm going to read question four again. No more just wheelie-nilly-nilly. hitting the buzzer. I love this. In The Witcher 3, The Wild Hunt,

Sosh is the alias of which character. Of course, Greg Miller's already buzzed in, gotten it wrong. Andy, Tim, you have the option to buzz in. Once you buzzed in, you are on the board. If you get it wrong, you will lose your points. Andy Cortez. Yenifer. Yanifer is incorrect. Tim Gettys. Tris. Tris is incorrect. The correct answer is

Carthia van Canton. Of course, of course. Everybody's favorite, Wich characters. A.k.a. Cantherella. This is great. Now, like I mentioned, this is Robe Robin, which means things are kind of different, right? Speaking of, we have hit a power-up round. Whoever succeeds in this round will not only receive 10 points,

but also their choice of a power-up. I'm happy to be here right now. Now, this is going to be a messy mashup. I'm going to read to you a clue, which will be the description of a game. The answer will be the name of two games mashed up together. For example, in this game, sneak through top-down corridors

while defending the planet from alien invasion. The answer would be Metal Gear's of War contestants. Are you ready? Yeah. This is brilliant, by the. way. No kiss his ass. It's not a good look for you.

You fuck him. This is a branching narrative game. Featuring a nostalgic interface from the early 2000s. Log on to a classic messaging service and chat with a girl. Then, after logging off, you'll need to team up with a friend to escape something even scarier than teenage angst, prison. Tim Geddes. Emily is a way out.

Emily is a way out. Is the correct answer. Like now, like I mentioned, this is a power up round. You have three choices of what you want. You can either get armor. Armor allows you to be protected for one wrong answer. So you get a free wrong answer. You can get also, or as opposed to that, if you want, you can get 30 points or Tim.

Crit damage. Always go for credit. Oh, mystery box. You can open up the secret treasure. Whoa. Secret treasure. Tim wants the secret treasure. I like it.

Lights. Oh, that's the seafood box. Nice. It's the rogue robin box. It's the rogue robin box. Tim, you've opened the secret chest. Your reward is the four times patch. What this allows just for the next round, round number six that we're going into,

if you get the right answer, you get four times the points that round. I love that. So you're competing next round for 40 points while the others compete for 10. Oh. It's got to get that. Oh. Can't use it. There you go, Raj. Thank you.

Go ahead and put that on. Look at that. Wow. That's awesome. Round number six. In 2015, the first six games were inducted... So no more messy mashup. No, no more messy matchup. Okay. That was just for that round. In 2015, the first six games were inducted into the World Video Game Hall of Fame.

Video games become eligible by meeting four criteria. Icon status, longevity, geographical reach, and influence. Contestants, can you name one of the first six games that were added? Greg Miller. Pong. Pong is the correct answer. That is one of the six games. Your options here, and that is 10 points for Greg Miller, of course.

Your options here would have been Pong, Tetris, Pac-Man, Super Mario Brothers, Doom, World Warcraft. Tim, you can give me back that patch. Sadly, you weren't quick enough to the punch. Pac-Man on the mind. Greg Miller just turned up stole it from you. Oh, you ripped it off. there you go let's move on

to round number seven since 2009 from software has released two games published by PlayStation as platform exclusives what are these two games Greg Miller Demon Souls and Bloodborn

Demon Souls and Bloodbourne is the correct answer that is 10 more points Oh there's lights in there too That's cool Yeah yeah yeah Round number eight contestants

You've hit a challenge room The challenge room features a series of questions all within the same category. All of the person who got the previous answer, correct. Choose the challenge room you want to enter. So Greg Miller. Gotcha. Your choices are subtitle, sound off, or what's the city? Subtitle.

We're going to a subtitle sound off. I'm going to list off the names of game's subtitles. For example, Kingdom Hearts, Birth by Sleep. Birth by Sleep is the subtitle. It is your job to buzz in and guess what the game series is. based on the listed subtitles. That's real good. Whoever gets the most correct answers,

or whoever gets the most correct, actually no, disregard that. For each correct answer, you get 10 points. Okay, got it. So wait, I'm sorry,

just to be clear. Yeah. You're going to give, like, three subtitles, and we have to tell you, oh, it's infamous or whatever. Correct. Okay, okay.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Number one, contracts, absolution, and blood money. Greg Miller. Hit Man. That is correct. That is 10 points for Greg Miller.

Why did I think he was the only one going? I kind of, I zoned out there, I thought it was just a thing for you And one thing We'll point out, Rogue Robin rules still do apply So if you get a wrong answer here, all your points are wiped Yeah, Andy, that's rough for you.

Number two, Odyssey, Sunshine, Galaxy, Andy. Mario. That is correct. Number three, curse of darkness, lords of shadow. Tim. Castlevania. Cassavania is correct. That is 10 points for Tim. Number four. Pocket, light, and color.

Andy. Game Boy. Game Boy is correct. Number five, rivals, payback, and high stakes. Rivals, payback, and high stakes. Tim Gettys. Need for Speed? Need for Speed is correct. That is 10 points or 2nd know about high stakes, but I knew the other two. There you go.

It wasn't Tomb Raider Go as Laura Croft go. I was bundling them as the same thing. I hear you. The franchise is Lara Croft. Just letting everybody know that I deserve a tip of that because I'm awesome. I'm going to win a hat for that. That's 20 points off for kind of like going at you right there, bless.

Oh, I'll get that to you on it, right? Are you sick? I don't know where you want to be on the human centipede of Tim winning all the time, but we're definitely not the mouth. So we got to throw in them all right? All right,

we're out of our challenge room and we're back into regular rogue Robin with round number nine. Wait, so this is still rogue Robin. This is still rogue Robin. The whole thing is really spicy. Round number nine. It's time for an OST's. Oh, fuck, oh. It's going to play a song.

Whoever can tell me what game the song is from gets 10 points. You get a tip of the hat. You can tell me the title of the song. The title of the song won't count for rogue robin rules, but the name of the game the song is from is what matters. It's fair. We like that. Fairt? Play the song.

Tim Gettys. This is the Mario 64 theme, but it's the version from Mario Galaxy 2 from Throwback Galaxy. That is correct. And you get the tip of the hat. this is yeah for game this is super Mario Galaxy 2 and the name of the song is indeed throwback at Galaxy

I was hoping that one would trip you up but Tim was on it he's Louise Juice Louise that was real good round number 10 Maybe it is the chair Round 10 He did good though That's what I'm saying

In 2021 on rapper Jay Cole's song 95 South The artist makes a reference to a classic video game duo When he says the line Quote, I be staying out the way, but if the beef do come around, could put an M right on your head, you blanks brother now. Which video game character does J.Core refer to by name in that blank? Andy Cortez. Mario.

Mario is incorrect. Wipe Andy's points. Again, the quote is, I be staying out the way, but if the beef do come around, could put an M right on your head, you are blanks brother now. Greg. Luigi. I've had it the... Fuck. Luigi is...

Correct answer. I got scared. That was like, that's what I thought originally, but then I want to rest the points. Whiskey for the biscuit, right, Raj? That's what he always is. That is 10 points for Greg Miller. Sorry, Andy.

It's okay. Next round. It's not. You guys have hit a mini boss. Jesus fucking. You guys are familiar with the rules. From here on, correct answers are worth 20 points. And I'm not asking questions to the group.

These are tailored questions for each contestant, and you only have 15 seconds to answer. Rogue Robin rules. still apply. What the fuck? What if we don't answer? But now you have to answer if you don't or you get the wrong answer, you lose all your points. I hate this. This is where it's not cool anymore. It's cool up until later. It's a mini boss. Starting with Tim Getty's. Tim, your game of the year of 2024, Prince of Persia of the Loss Crown was developed by the studio, Ubisoft Montpellier. This studio was founded by Michelle Ansel over 30 years ago with their

first game released in 1995. What was their first game? first game. Rayman. Tim? Rayman is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Tim Gettys. Up next, Andy. Andy.

Of the original character roster, which launched in May 2016, which Overwatch hero uses an endothermic blaster as their main weapon? May. May is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Andy Cortez. Greg Miller. Yes. The recent Freedom Wars remastered was developed by Dimps,

a Bandai Namco studio known for developing many titles dating back to 2000. Notably, they've worked on some popular franchises including Dragon Ball and the most recent 2018 entry to which popular fighting game franchise known for its prominent usage of melee weapons. You're such a dick. You're such a fucking dick. Is it the man or the chair, Greg? it's fighting game what can you hear one more time yeah i'll give it to you one more time uh they worked on some popular franchises including dragon ball and the most recent 2018 entry to which popular fighting game franchise known for its prominent usage of melee weapons

for honor i don't fucking know for honor is incorrect wipe gregg's points now it's rolled out as a chair is the man it's the man Andy and Tim because Greg got this wrong. You have the option to rob this round from Greg, but I do have multiple choice options here for you. Buzz in to answer, of course, if you don't buzz in, you're safe. You won't lose points. Once you buzz in, you're risking it all for 20 points here.

Again, the question is, DIMS, the developer. They worked on some notable franchises, some popular franchises, including Dragon Ball, and the most recent 2018 entry to which popular fighting game franchise, known for its prominent usage of melee weapons. Your options are, A, tech and tag

tournament. B, Soul Calibur, or C, Samurai Showdown. Tim Gettys. Soul Calibur. Tim says Soul Calibur. Soul Calibur is correct. That is 20 points for Tim. The 2018 threw me off. Is that really the last Soul Calibur?

The last, yes, was in 2018. Insane. I wanted to say Soul Calibur, but I was like, the last one was like in 2011. Yeah, right? It just feels like. I have no, I assume there's, did Bandai publish that as well? Yeah. I was like, I can't think of a Bandai fighter.

Yoshi Mitsu. character in Tekken is also in Soul Coliver. Oh, neat. You remember Link was in there too and Yoda? Remember Yoda? Yeah, he was. Oh, very small. Bain? Barry, can I get a score recap?

Looking good. All right now, the score is Team Blue, who is now Greg, is in last place with zero points, losing it all in the most recent round.

In second place, so close, yet so far, he's had some ups and some downs. It's Andy for Team Purple with 20 points. And in the lead right now, it is Tim Geddes, now playing for Team Orange with 80 points, but it's still anybody's game. I want people to rewind and just kind of zoom in on me. during the question about PlayStation and from software, what games were published by PlayStation, you know, the Demon Souls Blood Bowl 1? Because as that question starts getting read,

I go, oh, like, my mind just immediately stopped listening to the question and went, oh, I want, you know, all these questions are clearly tailored towards each one of us. And I'm clearly the From Software guy, and Demon Soul's Blood Bar, I was like, oh, yeah, I forgot I had to answer. What's happening here? What's funny in like, this is me, you know, opening the, curtain behind the scenes of how I formulate these questions. The first three rounds were meant for each of you so that hopefully each of you would

have 10 points so that when I asked the Witcher question, somebody's losing points there. So Greg getting Ness when that was met for Tim Geddes, I was like, all right, well, let's see how this works out. Yeah. You always have to have a scripted dying moment in a rogue light game. Exactly. So that's what that was. That's when you die in the beginning of the game, but you're supposed to die.

His game is down in this guy. Yeah. Thank you, Greg, for being the one. Happy to do it. Being this game. Mini boss is bullshit. I smelled chicken. Yeah, no, Mike opened up a bag of McDonald's over there.

Oh. All of a sudden I was like, how are a French fries wafting in? I was seeing the back there, fucking the kingpin feed up eating. Well, we do have more Rogue Robin for you.

Of course. And it's because I think some of the judges, they'll remain nameless, but they're Roger. and so Roger let me do a little demonstration for you this is a beer and so when daddy says go to the fridge and get me a beer and you go no beer

come back I lose the fucking round because I'm asked about a Bandai Namco fighting game refrigerator where I told you it was really going through it right now a lot of people in chat also because I like to check the chat

because usually chat is on my side they didn't they did not like the great question be asking about a fighting game. But I'm also the mind of like... Listen, I overcame. I'm kind of funny and I'll overcome this season as well. Don't worry. Somebody always gets screwed over in the tailored question.

You always got... You always got to screw somebody over. I always get reminded of like, Andy, you're the shooter fan. What's this soundtrack? And it was from fucking Quake or something. I was like, I've never played that in my life. This game ain't meant to be fair. It's meant to be fun.

Yes. And it's fun for me. God dang it. You also put me against the sports gaming guy, who while we were playing Final Fantasy 7 rebirth, Mike said, man, this game is really good. I only played, like, sport. I don't play Madden growing up.

I was like, oh, I'm going to, as soon as the question came up, I was like, oh, these answers are going to be NFL Street, and I'm not going to get a single one of them. Well, lucky for you guys. We're still in Rogue Robin, but we are out of the boss round, of the mini boss round. So we're back to regular Rogue Robin, which means points are back to the 10 point value.

And you can lose them all if you get it wrong. And you can lose them all if you get them wrong. I need to save it. How about some drama, Tim? You know what I mean? Yeah, risk it. Put on a show for people for once. Round number 14

It's a power-up round Once again Whoever succeeds in this round Will not only receive the 10 points But also their choice of a power-up This is a list Shit-Shit. So on our show shit list

We try to guess games That'll be on the top 10 list In this round, I'm tasking you With the reverse. I'm going to list entries In a top 10 list from 10 to 1 It is your job to buzz in And guess what the top 10 topic is

You can buzz in at any point However, rogue robin rule still applies So don't guess wrong. It's scary, y'all. Contestants, are you ready? I need this power up, yeah. This is a top 10 list.

Coming into number 10. I'm sorry, I don't mean to interrupt. Yeah. Can I buzz it? Like, number 10 is this and I say something and then... If it's wrong, you lose all your points. But I can buzz in at nine. Yes.

Please. Right now, still in last place because he was given a beer way too late. It is Greg Miller for Team Blue with 20 points. Just a little bit ahead of him. Still in second place, it is one. Andy, the night to arrive. Rifle Cortez for Team Purple with 50 points and still

in the lead. It is the man, not the chair. It is Tim Getty's for Team Orange now with 110 points, but it's still anybody's game. Imagine if I still have those 70 points though, it was competitive. Yeah, yeah. I mean, this still can go all the way.

Imagine if I just use like simple word comprehension and realize that Luigi's brother is Mario. You know? I'm just saying, Tim could lose his points at any moment. I doubt he could. I doubt he can.

He got the armor and then he's not going. Tim's smart. But again, the best part about Tim winning is I win to. No, that's not... God, I hate it. It's so right, yeah. Oh, man. Yeah, you're really fucked on this one.

Contestants, it is time for the final boss round. It's... You guys are familiar with the rules. From here on, correct answers are worth 20 points. And I'm not asking questions to the group. These are tailored questions for each contest. and you have 15 seconds to answer Rogue Robin rule still apply,

but now you have to answer. Since this is the final boss, there are two phases. Let's start. I need to get one right. Let's start with phase one. Phase one is called the franchise favorite.

I'm going to name three games that share the same franchise. Your job is to tell me which of these three games had the highest metacritic. No, there will not be robbing rounds in this round during this phase. We're going to start off. What?

There's no robbing rounds. Got it. Yeah. So if you get it wrong, nobody's going to get the option to steal it. Cool, Leo. Greg, I'm going to start off with you. Sure. So I'm going to name three games.

You're going to tell me which one had the highest metacritic. Sure. The games are infamous one, infamous two, and infamous second son. Which of those three games had the highest metacritic? That's a really tough one. Yeah. I mean, you guys don't feel confident in that either. I don't know.

I mean, you had fear of the bat earlier. I'm going to say Infamous 2, Festival of Blood. Infamous 2. Infamous 2 is incorrect. White Gregg's points. The answer was infamous 1. Infamous 1 has an 85 on Metacritic. 2 has an 83.

Second son has an 80. Tim, you're next. Your games are Final Fantasy 16, Final Fantasy 15, and Final Fantasy 13. That's a tough one, Tim. 16.

16 is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Tim Geddes. Fucking go. Andy. This guy's crazy. Yes. Guys nuts.

Andy, your games are Dark Souls 1. Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls 3. Dark Souls 3. Dark Souls 3 is incorrect. Wipe all of Andy's points. The correct answer. there would have been Dark Souls 2.

What? Dark Souls 2 has a 91 on Metacritic. Dark Souls 1 has an 89. Dark Souls 3 has an 89. I'm not playing it for my birthday. Everybody. I've been taking back the plans. I'm not playing Dark Souls 2 anymore. There I'm pulling from the PlayStation Metacritics, which

mostly align with other platforms. That's crazy. That is the end of phase one. We're going to enter phase two, even though I think technically there's nothing really the other guys can do about this. But just for fun. Just for fun. Let's Enter phase two. We should slash his tires.

Or his throat. Oh my God. Bless her, Tim. Dealers' choice. Phase two is whose voice line is it anyway. I'm going to quote to you a voice line of a character. Your job is to tell me which character said this voice line. For this round, I'm only pulling characters from the last two God of War Games.

You can steal if a player gets this wrong. I'm starting with last place, who is Greg Miller. Greg? I'm tired. Yeah, I'm tied. The quote is, may this weapon strike true, may it be wielded with wisdom,

may it be put down when the job is done. Who said that quote in the God of War franchise? Man. Brock. Brock is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Greg Miller. Sick. Yeah.

Andy. I just got pictures ass saying that shit. That's why it was a big deal. May your weapons strike true, you know. I think it was when he was given like the spear. like someone from Red Dead. It's some John Martston. No, it's me.

Arthur. Arthur, it's me. It's Hank Hill. I'm going to Tahiti, Arthur. Andy, the quote is, war does not measure the strength of a man. Wait, I mean,

war. He's songing up on Dark Souls. Oh, yeah, okay. War does not measure the strength of a man. What god of war character said that quote? I'm going to, go with Fredos.

Cratos is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Andy. Tim, your quote is I suppose this is the moment. I forgive you or I kill you. I suppose this is the moment. I thought he was going to give Tim boy. Yeah.

Oh, man. God, I'm so easy on these characters' names. I'm happy you have the armor because... I'm very happy I have the very happy. It's just like Bahala. I'm going to go with Freya. Freya is the correct answer.

All three of you got those three correct. Dang it, dude. That's fucking go. Which brings us to our final score, Barrett. What is it? We got our ass. Our final score. This is a box score that doesn't make any sense if you didn't watch the episode. Tide for second

place. It's a big deal and it means a lot. But you know what I mean? Tide for second place. It is Greg Miller. who only has one beer in him. Get this man, another beer for Team Blue with 20 points. And Andy the Nitro Rifle Cortez for Team Purple also with 20 points. And who ran away with it, the Rogue Lightmaster of this episode of Rogue Robin. It was Tim Muffucking Geddes for Team Orange with 150 points.

Barry, you can bring up the star standing so we can catch up with the overall score for this season. Coming into this, well, these are the statements from last season. Everybody's coming to this with zero stars. but Tim, your season one in season two champ is starting off strong in season three with your first win of the season. Greg is calling somebody right now. Look at his eyes. It's been forwarded to voice. The person you're trying to reach is not available at the tone.

Please record your message. When you have finished recording, you may hang up. Gia Gettys, it's me, Greg Miller, and I got some bad news for you. Tim just put your personal safety under. need winning some dumb made-up game. So now it's a green fucking light for me to come in your house at all hours, any vacation, any time you go to a romantic dinner,

stars in the bank will be watching. Good night. His eyes are going to puff out of his skull. Everybody, this has been game showdown. Good job, Tim. Good choice, Tim. You made some good choice. You made some good choice.

The bomb is in place. Play! The bomb is in. It's the contract. We'll be back next week with more game showdown. Until next time, it's been our pleasure to serve you. You happy about this? I'm scared.
