Today we're playing KanaFuty with some very special guests. Get ready for Game Showdown. Yo, what's up? Welcome to Game Showdown. I'm your host Blessing at Ae Aalje Jr. I'm joined by three contestants representing three teams. We got the return of Carl Jacobs representing Greg's Team Blue. You know, the people ask for it, the people receive it.

They want my redemption. I think we were talking. And we both kind of came to the agreement that I wasn't wrong on anything and that the audience was wrong. I don't know if I'd say we both. We both came to that and I'm here to tell you guys, I forgive you. We're going to move on and this is going to be a great day. You know what?

Well said. I feel you. I don't know if I agree with everything, but I feel you. Of course, also joining us, we have Stella Chung for the first time representing Andy's team purple. Yeah, team baby girls. So that's going to be very fun. I'm not going to lie.

I have not watched this show. I've only seen clips. I don't know how this works. I'm going into this blind, but I know that the community is on my side, right? because I can beat them up otherwise. Speaking of the community, can somebody turn off chat? Thank you. I appreciate it.

And then also joining us. Or don't. Don't turn up to that. I mean, that would be a fun game to do is leave chat up and see you. Oh, yeah, because I can give us the answers. Yeah. I don't want you to see the suggestions. I do.

I want this coming from your brain, Ben Star. Representing Tim's team orange. I'm back. He's back. Yeah, what's really interesting is before this we went on, we were all like, I really want you to do well. I really want you to have a nice. Yeah, I didn't like how buddy, buddy, buddy you guys are. Now we're not.

Now we're just like... We're in it. Now we're like... No! We've got to reset them every time. Thank you. All right. We're going to say, the reason we're pressing these now is blessing has informed us that we will not be able to use them in this episode.

Honestly, I do feel a little bit short-changed. Yeah, well... What are we doing here? We could just unionize and continue using the buttons. I agree. I think that's what we're going to go ahead and keep doing. I don't know if that's... No, we're going to use them blessing.

We're going to use the button. Yeah. All right. I mean, I don't know if that's your choice, but I don't know. We're sticking it to the man. Well, let's see if you can stick it with this first question. We're going to start off with a trivia question worth 10 points and the chance to go first in Kanafutti. This is a numbers game.

I'm going to ask you the number of a certain thing. You'll each get a chance to guess the number with no repeat guesses allowed. Think like Price's right rules. So whoever gets the closest without going over will get the points. If you all go over, then the lowest guess gets the points. Contestants, are you ready? Yeah. So ready.

In the 2005 game Guitar Hero, developed by Harmonics, how many total playable songs are featured in the game? Now, Stella, you're representing Team Purple, and so I'm going to have you go first because Team Purple won the star in the previous episode. Oh.

I just make up rules as I go. I like that. I just decided to choose somebody. Press the buzzer. This feels racist. We're both the people of color on this episode. That's what makes it funny. Um, okay. I guess, uh, 300?

That's the owner says 300. Ben, I'm going to have you go second. I'm going to say, I'm not going to do the annoying thing and go 301. I'm going to say, 750. Wow. And then Carl, you're our last guess here. Thanks for having me blessing.

I'm going to go ahead and lock in 73. Carl says 73. 73. Just throwing it out there. To the question of in the 2005 game guitar hero developed by Harmonics, how many total playable songs are featured in the game?

The correct answer, 47. Oh. Meaning Carl Jacobs does get the 10 points to start off and he will be going first in kind of duty. He might be redeeming himself. He might be redeeming himself.

Are you sure the answer? wasn't 750. Yeah. Are we counting like all the modded songs and stuff? Are we playing guitar?

Are we, are you sure it wasn't 750? I mean, I could double check, but I'm pretty sure those 30. Because I think it's

750. By my notes here, there are 30 songs of the campaign and then we had 17 bonus songs. This is before the age of DLC. That's crazy, man.

Yeah, that's a PS2. There's a PS2 era. That's crazy, man. There we go. PS2 era, baby. That's where I shone. Remember, this is Game Showdown.

Kind of funny. He's nerdy game show that you can watch live right here on Twitch and on YouTube. If you love what we do, support us with the Kind of Funny membership on Patreon or YouTube to get all of our shows ad free, watch us record them live, and get a daily exclusive show. Thank you to our Patreon producers, Delaney Twining, Carl Jacobs, and Omega Buster. Carl Jacobs, of course, sent right the fuck here.

Today we're brought to you by Shady Ray's, Meundies, and Factor, but we'll tell you about that later. For now, let's play, Kind of Feudy. I want to interrupt first. No, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What's up, Ben Star? There is a conflict of interest here. Mm-hmm.

There is, actually. And I'm very happy about it. No. We're not. There is a conflict of interests. Yeah. Patreon producers, list them. Delaney Twining, Carl Jacobs.

My God. You produce this show? You know what? We're not sure if that's me. No. I'm not the only Carl Jacobs. I have an uncle named Carl Jacobs. I have a grandpa named Carl Jacobs.

This is wild Carl. He passed away. This is a far. stopped renewing though. He was a fan back in 2015. Maybe he never stopped renewing. We don't know. It's a real shame.

I mean, too, fair, you're playing for Team Orange, which is Tim's team. Tim is a co-owner of this company. It's corruption. You know? The only person to hide, I mean, Stella plays for Team Andy

or Team Purple, which is the Navy girl. Team Baby Girl. Sorry, Team Baby Girl. Thank you. God. And like, I don't know. Anyway,

we're part of this company, too. We all benefit here, is what I'm saying. Please be with you, Carl. We're all benefiting. We're all benefiting. The rules are simple. I've surveyed over 1,700 members of the Kind of Funny audience on a number of prompts.

Each round, I'm going to read to you a prompt, and I will ask each of you which answer you think the kind of funny best friends gave the most. I've narrowed down to five answers per prompt. If you give a correct answer, the more popular the answer, the more points you'll receive. For example, I might ask you to name a tall video game character. If Stella says Lady Demetrisk and it's number one, I'll never 50 points. If Ben says Waluigi, and that's number two, that'll get him 40 points. If Carl says Mario with a mushroom, and that's number three, that'll get him 30 points and so on and so forth. Call him by his Christian name, Tall Mario, or Long Mario, thank you very much.

I think Super Mario is a Christian name. Each player will get a max of two guesses per round. Last place goes first after the first round. Whoever gets the most points after five rounds wins. There's also a secret answer hidden in one of the rounds. It's not one of the top five answers, but if you happen to get it, it, it is worth five points, and you get to guess again, contestants. Are you ready?

Yeah, during that explanation, I accidentally swallowed my gum. Do you want to get another one? But now I could drink water, so now we're good. Oh, there you go. Could you not drink water before because you had gum? Yeah, I don't, it's felt like a, do you drink water with gum? Yeah, I do. I quite like it. Just to feel something?

Yeah. Okay. Yeah, doesn't the gum get like, terrible? Don't yuck my yums. That's who I'm up against, guys. That's who I'm up against. Okay. Do you want to tell them about batteries as well?

Oh, yeah, I lick batteries. Anyway, come on. Let's carry on. No, no, we're not carrying on. You need to explain this. I don't all the time. I used to when I was a kid. I used to put my tongue in between and conduct the electricity.

That's what gave him the voice he has today for voice acting. He's actually not British at all. Are you sucking and licking batteries? You too can be an actor in video games. What if mine was penny? I would also recommend don't do it. Don't do it. I'm not because this is not an endorsement of doing that.

I just did it. Or do it. I mean, I don't know. That's from Carl. Yeah. I'm not funny. I don't do it now.

You know, I'm a change man. I think that shows growth and change. And that's really important. You're changed man. So you like the pennies? Yeah. Yeah. Would you also say your charged man?

Get it? Because batteries? Okay. All right. Let's start with round number one. Okay. Name the best DLC expansion of the last five years. Name the best DLC expansion of the last five years.

Carl, since you got the opening question correct you will be going first. Last five years, not my forte, ladies and gentlemen. DLC also not my forte, ladies and gentlemen. I'm gonna, my brain somewhere, can I say

the game that it's a DLC of or do I have to know the name of the DLC? It's gonna be two very different. If you can... Rounds for me. Are we gonna give special exception because he is a producer of this show? My grandpa is a producer, but yeah. Blessing, I'm looking at you and what I'll say

is, just to have us talk a little. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What you have here are the names of the DLC. That is true. I do have the names of the DLC here. So I will say you can give me the name of the DLC. Well, ladies gentlemen, we got him. Who's next?

Who's next after me? It'll be Stella. Okay. All right. Well, I'm going to say whatever the DLC for Eldon Ring is, and I'm not going to get the points for it, but then Stella could potentially get the points for that. Is the Eldering doesn't have a DLC or something like that?

Who knows? We will never know. D.L. The DLC spin-off thing just come out for that thingy? We'll never know. Carl says whatever the Elden Ring DLC is. Unfortunately, not an acceptable answer. No, not an acceptable.

I understand that. If you're, it's fair enough. Depending on whether it's not on the list. But no, that is not on the list. Okay, fair enough. Stella, you are up next. Shadow of the Erd Tree. Stella says, Shadow of the Erd Tree.

That is the Eldon Ring DLC that Carl was referring to. And that is our 50-point answer. A very strong start from Stella. Ben, you're up next. Phantom Liberty. Ben says Phantom Liberty. Cyberpunk 277, Phantom Liberty

is our 40 point answer. And now we are back. Go again. Call, go again. Oh, man, dude, because I really thought I was, all right. How many years?

Five. Okay, last five years. For our context, this poll went up this last December. Okay. Oh, okay. That changes it a lot for me. Oh man, there's like, any come out for Smash Bros, maybe?

Anything come out? I'm thinking like the Mercedes-Benz D.L.C. from Mario Car? Jesus Christ. What does this mean? Oh, God. Oh, Jesus. What's going to happen? It's going to fight him. I wish you had an earwings I can hold him for you.

I was wondering how you were going to take it. Stop your shirt. What a performance. We all remember last time around. We know what Carl's capable of. But blessing, for what feels like three to two and a half years, I've held stars in the bank. Tim, get your ass out here right now. I've held stars in the bank.

And people have asked, when will I cash it in to go for three stars. to Carl Jacobs, of course. And I'm here to let you know that it is not today. Now, Tim, come here. I got two tickets, all right? To Pound Town, all right? You're going to Pound Town, you're coming to Pound Town, all right? I'm Cashing in, Stars in the Bank, Wednesday, April 2nd,

during the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal. No! We'll make Tim's dreams of new Nintendo hardware stop dead in their tracks. I will ruin kind of funny content possibly our most successful. How many thousands of people

will be watching us who have no idea what Stars in the Bank is? I will ruin that because I'm Greg Miller and I'm winning game showdown this season. I hate him so very, very much. Good luck with the show.

I made a mistake. I should have introduced Stars in the Bank. Oh, I regretted every day. Every day. The bigger mistake is that I didn't, my phone and start typing in DLCs for the past five years, which I should have. I'm going to go ahead and lock in

the Cheech and Chong DLC for Call of Duty. Carl says Cheech and Chong DLC for Call of Duty. The Cheech and Sean DLC for Call of Duty is not on the list. Well that I knew happened, though. Yeah, it was a very funny one though. It's the people who are wrong.

Yeah. That is a DLC technically, yes. Okay, yes. You had a second guess here. I can't remember the name specifically, but I think it's the last of us left behind. Sella says the last was left behind. The last was left behind is not on the list. That came out

10 years ago. That came out a decade ago. What? What? That came out like 12 years ago, dude. Well, like maybe nine. Dude, ever since the pandemic, yeah, my brain, like the timeline has just been fucked. Because I feel like. Five years is hard, man. Five years. Because there are some incredible DLCs and obviously iconic ones, but like

five years. Poof. Um, my Mine is going to be Final Fantasy 7 intermission. Ben Starr says Final Fantasy 7 intermission. Final Fantasy 7 intermission is not what on the list. Ooh. Our 10 point answer that nobody got, destiny to the final shape. Okay. Obviously, Destiny to the final shape.

Our 20 point answer, which nobody got, Horizon Burning Shores. Horizon Burning Shores. I will say this is a tough one to start off with. And our 30 point answer, which nobody got God of War, Ragnarok, Vaughal. I just couldn't remember the name of it. It was so good. So Mercedes-Benz DL-C for Mario Kart wasn't anywhere? Unfortunately, no, the Mercedes-Benz D-LC didn't make it.

But I will say it was a strong start for both Ben and Stella because Ben got the 40-point answer with Cyberpunk 27-Fantom Liberty. Stella got the 50-point answer with Eldon Ring, Shadow of the Erd Tree. As we move on to round number two. Name the worst resident evil game. Oh. Name the worst. I do have a question.

Resident Evil game. We're not talking main line. We're talking other things as well. Is it number? So what happens is I put this poll out to the audience. Got it. And I just type in, name the worst resident evil game. And they decide how they want to interpret it.

Yes. You can answer right now because call is going to go first. Oh my God. Let me answer. It's not a buzzer game. Does my buzzer counts? I mean, your buzzer doesn't count, but you will be going first, yes.

I see, I see. Now it counts. I'm going to lock in. There's two that are on the top of my head. I think one is a little bit more obscure than the other one. And I think I'm... Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City, I think, is probably going to be...

I think that's going to be at least somewhere on the list. Carl says, Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City. Operation Raccoon City is our 30 point answer. Up next, we got Ben Star. Resident Evil 6.

Ben says Resident Evil 6. Resident Evil 6 is our 50 point answer. Stella, you are up. Question, if I don't know the name of it. You can't get the answer. No, no, no.

Hear her out. Go on. The game is you need to name the thing. No, no. What do you mean by the? What are you going to say to me? So I don't remember the name of it, but I know, like... Are we aware of how this game works, everyone?

Because I'm just... Listen, we're just... The purpose is to remember... I do want to remind you... Literally the game is remember the name. I did kind of throw the worst. I threw you a lot down the ring. I just can't...

It's not described the worst of Reza Evil game. Name? I can't remember what it's called. But the multiplayer one, so I'll just give that. to Carl, if you remember the multiplayer one that came out that like... Was attached to three? No, it was like a standalone one that was

real bad. I cannot accept that answer. But you know what I'm talking about, right? No, actually. You don't? Oh my God. I can't get into it as the host. Do you remember the light gun Resident Evil? It was a light gun Resident Evil?

That was fun. In the last five years. I think I know what you're referring to, but I cannot confirm nor deny. But yes, the multiplayer Resident Evil game is not on the list. Carl, we're back to you. I'm gonna shoot one.

I don't think that you guys in the kind of funny community are gonna go too obscure with this. And I think it's like, keep it simple. And I think out of the mainline franchise, the one that probably gets the most hate would be Resident Evil 5.

Other than 6. Other than 6. I think 5 would probably get, it's like the most divisive to me. So I'm gonna lock in Resident Evil 5. Carl says Resident Evil 5. Resident Evil 5 is our 40 point answer. And you're wrong?

It's a fun game. Thank you. Is that one with co-op? Yeah, co-op. It's a good time. It's a good time. It's a good time. Like Shever.

Ben, you're up. I don't say Resident Evil Zero. Ben says Resident Evil Zero. No, it's the one on the train. I love it, but I know some people don't like the item box system. Resident Evil Zero is not on the list. That's good because I like that game. Stella, you're our final guest here.

I don't know Resident Evil games. Was, was, uh, what was that? What is that? Just reminding him. What does that mean? Yeah. Like, is that, what do you? Yeah.

You don't know, Reson. You're not in front of him. Yeah. Um, was seven the one with the, uh, like when they first introduced mold and stuff? I can't remember. Yeah. Okay. That was gross.

Okay. Um. Is it just things you don't like? I don't like mold. I just remember that one. My answer is mold. Um. please take all the time you need thank you thank you I will um I don't know I feel like people

like all these three I don't know is that your answer yeah I don't have anything else Stella says Resident Evil 3 Resident Evil 3 is not on the list I don't think it's a terrible answer though because like the recent Resident Evil 3 was I think a bit of a letdown America Resident Evil 2 remake yeah um our 10 point answer which nobody got code Veronica. Oh. No. No. And that's the audience is saying.

That's the audience. I see why you say they're wrong now. Yeah. I get it. I don't think you guys are wrong at all. I think you guys have been doing a great job. Keep it up. Our 20 point answer, which nobody got. Umbrella core. Oh, that's for the Wii. Now, was that a multiplayer one? I thought that was the Wii. I feel like it was a shooter, right?

Yeah, like a light. Stell, I believe the one you're talking about is reverse. Yes. Yeah, reverse, reverse. Oh, was that the multiplayer one? Yeah, that was attached to a game, but I think it got delayed. And then it became its own standalone thing. Yes.

It was really bad. And it didn't stand alone. God. Can we deduct like one point for that, please? Like, just one. Carl is showing us how malleable the English language is, and that's incredible. That's just fantastic wordplay. It's enough batteries in your mouth.

Yes. Yes. I don't mind. Let's play ball. Let's play ball. I don't mind that. It's fine. It's fine.

You don't want that one point by the time we get to the phone. final rat. I've already almost doubled my whole last step. So look, guys, we're thriving over here. With that, Carl got the 30-point answer with Operation Raccoon City. Carl got the 40-point answer with Resident Evil 5, and Ben got the 50-point answer with Resident Evil 6. Before we move on, Barrett, what's the score?

Right now, the score is in last place playing for Team Purple in place of one Andy Cortez. It is Stella Chung with 50 points, not too far ahead of her in second place, already displaying a better showing than last time. It is Carl Jacobs playing for Greg Miller for Team Blue with 79 points. And in the lead, is anybody surprised? It might be the chair. It is Ben Star playing for Tim Geddes with Team Orange for 90 points, but it's still

anybody's game. I don't know if the 79 points is sanctioned, but we'll let it sit there for now.

That wasn't we had a pretty nice chatting. I think we were having a great time. They were It was great. Civil. Let's step in to round number three and see if things keep on being civil. Name a battle real game that is not Fortnite Warzone or Apex Legends. Name a battle royale game that is not Fortnite Warzone or Apex Legends. Stella, you are first. Oh, I wasn't expecting to be first.

Yeah. Okay, sorry. Repeat the ones that we can. I said it twice. I know. A battle royal game that is not Fortnite, Warzone, or Apex Legends. Okay. Shit, I should know this.

I have to. Mobile, okay, hold on. What are you going to do? You're going to get naked? What's that? It's a tax I have to pay, I think. Yeah, I've got to get naked, I think. I can't remember.

Oh, well, shit, I don't know about the kind of funny audience, though. It's a thing. H1Z1, Battle Royale Stella says H1Z1 Battle Royale H1Z1 Battle Royale is not on the list You didn't play

You guys didn't play Like the starter fucking Battle of Real? What is the foundation? Thank you, thank you Thank you Thank you. I'm good

Oh, I truly believed it. I truly believed it. Okay. Ben Star. That's PubG. Ben Star says PubG. Oh, my God. I don't.

What are we doing here, guys? Wait. Answer. What are we doing here? What are we doing here? reason. I thought that was also not allowed in like all the, I don't know. I know he named him all but like in my brain. I was like

oh, all the popular ones. We did you hear it a fifth time? Yeah. For the second round, I'm going to say one more time. Name a battle real game that is not Fortnite, war zone or Apex Legends. I have a question. Do you need an answer? Do you need an actual name? Do you actually need a name? Okay. For this one, I'll say yes. I do need the name. For this round. Yeah. Stella, we're back to you. Will that ever change? We'll just keep asking.

Yeah. Okay. Okay. So next time it's you and then we'll go back around okay got it so pub g's been taken already and it seems like people don't play the early versions of things which really sucks i don't know what the fuck is left i don't know anything yeah i'm trying to go through the ones that are now defunct and it's really weird um start them out loud you know what i mean yeah just football just same they're so many that have come and gone and uh there were like a flash in the pan and we're trying to think of like which ones would kind of funny specifically yeah that is the full that is the full that guy

what's wrong with you I cannot get over it okay there's a you know what I'm never going to know the name of it so maybe I'll help you out here for a tip of the hat of course

the one with the wrestlers that I feel like Greg played that wrestler one of that this could be I guess they played it a lot of kind of fucking fuck what was it called this is great content with that count

I mean she is truly representing to Andy's team now. Plus, does that count? Because this is the exact same way Andy plays. Does it count as a Battle Royale? Does that count as a Battle Royal? That can...

It depends on the audience. It depends on what the audience says. It's not how Blessing defines it. Yeah, it's not... The audience can write in Mario 64. So you mean like FPS then, right? Like... They didn't count PlayStation All-Star's Battle Royale.

I said name... And it was in the fucking title. So they can get... They can just count whatever they want, I guess. I said, name a battle royal game that is not Fortnite Wars owner Apex Legends. The audience sees that pull, And they write in whatever and I had to take their answers for it.

Yeah. Oh, they wrote it in? Let's up. We talked about this over at break. They sent it in. They write it and they put on a postcard and they send it in. I have been here for a way. I have been around three.

I am working on like five hours of sleep like the whole week. Okay, leave me alone. So what happens? Leave you alone? I really did explain this to you when I abrade. I make a 30 question poll. I put it to the audience. The audience writes and all their things.

It's like family feud. I thought they had to sweat. The show that I usually tried to avoid saying on the show. Oh, you thought they had to select. No, they actually, they write them in. Yeah, they write them in. Yeah, they write the Google Doc. Is it still a Google Doc?

It's a Google form and then I get the Google sheet and then I, let me tell you, I just do a lot of scrolling. A lot of scrolling. You know, I'm happy for it. Yeah, still. It's still on your own. I know. I prefer it this way. I know.

I thought you, I thought this was where you're going to shine. I thought so too, but like my brain is just not working with me today. It happens. Which is great for Carl, you know. Yeah. Um. Do we have the 30 second timer? It's gone.

There we go. Whatever that fucking, I don't know. Um, I can't remember the name of it. You got 20 seconds on the clock. Oh my God. I can't believe I'm whiffing like this right now. You got 10 seconds on the clock. I know.

I, uh, fuck. Ring of Elysium. There we go. Stella says ring of Elysium. It's probably not. Ring of Elysium is not on the list. Although it does sound cool. I kind of want to play that.

I think it's a little bit more extraction-y, right? No, I never played it. It was like PubG, but with like sci-fi stuff and like anime boobies. Cool, cool, cool. Carl, you're up next. Going to go unconventional again, but something that I know the kind of funny community cared about at least at one point. I'm going to lock in. Thank you.

I'm going to lock in what is Tetris 99. Carl says Tetris 99. Tetris 99 is our 30 point answer. Ladies and gentlemen. God, I'm doing it. I've now doubled it unless people start taking points away. Oh, yes, we're doing it. I'm so happy for you.

Oh, my gosh. Honestly, it's an honest. Dude, let's talk. Yeah. Because I earlier, we were like, you think I said, I said you could do this. You guys want to switch seats? No, no, no. No, we're all here.

We're all here together. this game together. We're all doing this together. I said you can do, yeah. We're not in the mic. Yeah. Yeah. I'm really thrilled for you. Honestly, you were really nervous, but you're just really showing how good you were at this game. Yeah. Do you want, do you want help with this one? No, I'm good. One more, right? Yeah, Ben is the final guest on this one. Well, actually, Tetris 99 was going to be my answer. Really? Yes. I'm going to go with Final fantasy, I'm just, I'm rapping. Final Fantasy 7, the first soldier. Ben soldier is not on the list.

I do appreciate you representing Final Fantasy. Yeah, you know, I just got to give a shout every now and again. Only down to the franchise. Yeah. Yeah, I do remember that. Can I guess one? Sure.

Is cuisine royale on there? No, cuisine. God, I loved cuisine royale. Can you tell us what was on there? What was that, sorry? Can you tell us what was on there? Oh, yeah. I want to know what the fuck battle rails are playing.

Ten point answer, which now did you got. Hyperscape. Sorry. The U.S. Gross. Really? Really? That came out in, I think, 2020, and then Un came out.

Another one? Okay. Our 20-point answer, Naraka Blade Point. Okay. You're just saying words and syllables right now. Our 40-point answer, Fall Guys. Oh, banger. Oh, my God. Dude, nobody could touch me in Fall Guys.

You know, I thought I knew this audience. You didn't think we had a Fall Guys audience? God, I got to say. No, we do, but the Hyperscape? HyperScape over H-1-Z-1? I think, again, I hear the tip that I'll give to you for Kind of Feudy is that it is like, whatever is the first thing that comes to your mind is usually, I think, was going to end up on the list. And so when you think Battle Royale and like you can't do Fortnite or Warzone or Apex, right,

first one, PubG. And then Hyperscape just happens to be on people's minds because it has a story to it, right? It's so bad. It's a lot of mind share, yeah, because everyone kind of knew about it. It's mind share. Yeah. That's the game. When you said H-1Z1, flabbergasted wasn't on there.

That is a good guess. Yeah. Yeah. What the fuck? That's literally like the amount. Like this is what did it. What started? I'm like personally offended.

It's okay. It's okay. I love being on this side of this. I love being on this side of this. Oh yeah. Like actually having points. It's objectively screwed over. Same with me.

PlayStation All Star Battle Real obviously should have been on there. I think we're all on the same page. Yeah. It literally says. With that, Carl got the 30 point answer with Tetris 99. Ben got the 50 point answer with PubG. As we move on to round number four. Round number four.

name two video game brothers give me this fuck name two video game brothers we're gonna start off with Stella god damn it you know what came to mind was the video game two brothers

whoa you should lock that one I don't know if that one I don't know if the audience would have played that one though I mean Mario and Luigi fuck fuck fuck Stella fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

no I know like he wants to I wanted me to do not. I didn't even think of that. Stella says Mario and Luigi. Mario and Luigi is our 50 point. Oh, thank God. I'm not going to be a 50 points.

Next up, we got Carl. Brothers. Are you saying the word brothers? Are you answering? No, no, no. I didn't click the button. Yeah, you're going to have to give me a little bit of, you know. I can't get over Tim's outburst in the corner.

just a chucklehead over there Tim Getty is the chucklehead over there It's fun having the regular contestants in the background Because I can hear it being pent up back there Yeah please say the thing Brothers Hmm Carl's thinking real hard y'all

I am And Stella's gotten the 50 point answer with Mario and Luigi The prompt is named two video game brothers Are we gonna play music underneath this? Well I'm giving I was giving him five more seconds Before I tell Barry to bring up the 30 second timer I'll take the yeah sure Very, put up 30 seconds

I thought I was delayed Okay Um You know Let me think Let me think I'll start thinking You got 20 seconds to think

Box PlayStation 10 I'm trying to think every You know I feel you Those are all the companies And then Got Steam You got 10 seconds

Okay Yeah What is I just have to Just because I have to Lock something What is Wario and Waluigi

Carl says Wario and Waluigi Wario and Waluigi is not on the list I knew it I knew it though that one's not offensive to me because if you're gonna say

Mario and Luigi you know you're not gonna split the vote you know Benstar it's killing me because I know

one half of all the pairs and I'm just trying to remember their names and it freaks me off I can start helping you yeah do you want to the last of us no

Joel and Oly you know it I'm not helping you on this one because I'm just like oh it pisses me off because they've all gone out of my head I'm just like listing listing naughty dog characters in my head

I genuinely every brother in every video game ever has completely gone out of my head yeah that happens around this game I'm just going to go ahead say I'm going to say the super The Smash Brothers. Ben Starr says the Super Smash Brothers.

The Super Smash Brothers is not on the list. I feel like that could have been the secret answer though, honestly. That's a good answer, though. I should get some points because of how inventing that is. Can you get one for that, please? Give him your shoes for that one. Give him, give him a tip of the hat. One point.

Give me one point. And a lace of my shoe. And even one for one, please. Yay. Okay. I didn't really consent to that at all, but we can move forward. I mean, that point had to go. somewhere that we took away from it. It did, yeah. Couldn't have gone to me, I guess.

Again, I'm not sanctioning this. Bear's pressing buttons back there. It's so nice. Stella, it's on you. Name two video game brothers. I have a feeling that one's not going to be on there. It's a little too. It was Tommy and Joel. Stella says Tommy and Joel. Tommy and Joel is our 30 point answer. Oh. I genuinely didn't think. Yeah. No, don't. I'm happy for you. I'm happy for you.

Don't be so nice. I'm happy for you. Like, guys, we're playing a game. I'm having a good time. Whoever wins, it doesn't matter. Stella making a big comeback here. Carl. Have you?

Oh, yes, she is. It's on you. Have you already, uh, you already did your two guesses then? I did. Yeah, that was your second guess. Okay. Okay.

Wasn't, wasn't Uncharted 4? All about Nathan Drake and his brother? Yes. I just don't remember his brother. Yes, it was. Yes, it was. I just do not remember his brother's name.

Yeah. And, um, and I know the bad guy who was wraith. You remember the bad guy's name? Well, why would I remember his brother? It's like the most important part of the name. That's Troy Baker. Why would I remember his brother's name? Oh my God.

He's like the reason the entire plot is a thing in that game. No, the reason is because there's conflict. There's conflict because there's a bad guy. The bad guy's wraith. Do you know his name at all? I don't. I don't. You know his name?

No, this is why both of those were in my head and I can't remember. Ah. I don't think anyone pick anything from, well, no, that wouldn't be a thing. The whole family tree is so convoluted in Eldon Ring anyways. I don't think your audience would have paired anyone there either. Barrett, I'm going to need a 30-second timer. Whoa. Whoa.

And there it goes. You got about 25 seconds to answer. I will say today's episode is a hard mode episode You saw my performance last time and you're like

Let's make it even harder Um let's I'm gonna go ahead and lock in Nathan Drake and his brother Who's named Peter Peter Drake

Carl says Nathan and Peter Drake Nathan and Peter Drake is not on the list Ben I can't remember his name I want to get quickly

so I'm just going to say Nathan and Sam. It is Sam, isn't it? It's Sam. It's fucking Sam. Ben says Nathan and Sam. Nathan and Sam is our 40 point

answer. It's Sam for sure. It is Nathan and Sam Drake. Peter didn't sound right, but I didn't know what else it, yeah. Yeah. Okay.

Hi, it's me, Peter Drake. Okay. Ten point answer is. Yeah, okay. 10 point answers, you know what he got. Dante and Virgil from Devil May Cry. The best brothers.

Yeah. Our 20 point answer, solid and liquid snake. Oh my God. Les en font terrible. And then, of course, Stella got the 30 point answer with Joel and Tommy. Ben got the 40 point answer with Nathan and Sam Drake. Stella got the 50 point answer with Mario and Luigi. As we roll right in to our fifth in final round.

Question. Do you think that your community would accept Jack and Dexter as brothers? I've actually not, I don't know what the Jack and Dexter are. Well, no, because they're not related. That's like saying or Ratch and plant-related. What do we mean brothers? Like, you know, like blood-related or like tight, you know? What do you think Webster's Dictionary defines brothers as?

Do you think your audience is going by that description? Boys and love. Boys and love. I think they have integrity. Our audience. Come on. No, they didn't play H-1. They didn't say H-1C-1, so it's gone right now.

We're going to roll into our fifth and final round here. Yeah. It's fun typing down the scores and in my brain trying to type down the scores. and in my brain trying to type down the actual scores in my head that I've sanctioned and not these fake ass 108 now we ain't doing what did I get it 108? Because I think you lost an extra point somewhere else. Yeah, it happened. Fair enough.

I think it was sometime in the last few rounds. Let's throw that to purple. Round number five, name a video game that has a lot of sequels. Name a video game that has a lot of sequels. Now because of a tie in votes, there are two 40 point answers. So big points on the book. board here. We're going to start off with Carl.

And if you want to say it, do you want me you want me to still? What is Final Fantasy? Carl says Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy is our 50 point answer. Okay. Oh, I already have my next guess. Oh, don't let me. Don't let me. Don't let them.

What the fuck? We were getting a lot. You're going down. Okay. Sorry. So when you say a lot, it means more than Yes. Yes, it does. It means a lot.

Listen, I don't know what your community is like setting the parameters. Like, I don't know what the parameters are. Name a video game. That's a lot of sequels. Numbers! That's the parameter. Resident Evil. Oh, Resident Evil.

Stella says Resident Evil. Resident Evil is one of our 40 point answers. Remember, there's a tie for 40 points here. That shocked me. Ben Starr Coal of Duty Ben says call of duty Call of Duty

Call of Duty is the other 40 point answer well we're back to Carl What is Yakuza Ooh good one

Carl says Yakuza I said Yakuza Wait Does the pronunciation have to be exact To that I'll say no As long as I understand what you're saying. Okay, so you need the titles.

Yes. But the pronunciation doesn't have to. We are on the final round. You have one guest left of the entire stream. Listen. I just want to know. It's amazing. I love it.

I love it. Carl says Yakuza. Thank you. Yakuza is our 20 point answer. Stella. Mm-hmm. Fuck, I had something in it just because of the other. because I lost points

even if she gets 10 points she passes me right oh wait yeah you're right I mean these aren't sanctioned by me I'm going by the official points I kind of like 169 though like I'm okay with losing if I keep that you know what I mean like that's

yeah let's see with a lot of sequels I don't I don't know if your audience will I don't know if your audience will be doing this but like telltales the walking dead Stella says

Tailtales the Walking Dead. The Walking Dead is not on the list. Ben, you're our final guess here. The Legend of Zelda. Ben says the Legend of Zelda. The Legend of Zelda is not on

the list. So my brain was going to lock a sports game, but I didn't know which one. Same. And I was worried that they were going to cannibalize each other. Yeah. So Martin, maybe. No sports games here. Wow.

I was going to say, I don't think that's the audience, right? Fair enough. Unless it's W.E. No, our honest doesn't even fuck with W.W.E. Really? Greg fucks with WWE. Yeah. Is, I mean, I just, Mario, is that a thing?

No. Kingdom Hearts was our 10-point answer. Oh, okay. And then our 30-point answer, which nobody got, Assassin's Creed. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. And that game just came out. Yeah, it does.

With that, Carl got the 20-point answer with Yakuza. Ben got the 40-point answer with Call of Duty. Stella got the 40-point answer with Resident Evil. Carl got the 50-point answer with Final Fantasy. Before we recap the final score here, some for fun answers for you. Under the Kingdom Hearts for that last prompt, you had Halo in sixth place for naming game with a lot of sequels.

Under Halo, you had Dynasty Warriors and God of War being tied for a seventh place technically. Going back, we had one secret answer that I mentioned before. It was for our fourth round where I asked you to name two video game brothers. The secret answer, and our sixth place answer for that, would have been Brock and Sindry from God of War. Some of my favorite brothers in video games. I think Sindri's performance in God of War, Ragnarok,

is probably one of the greatest video game performances of all time. And it doesn't get enough love. And what? Yeah, it's absolutely sensational. And I think how you can create a comedic character that has pathos at the end, incredible. Barrett, what's the final score? The final score!

in last place, but fought a good fight today. It was Stella playing for Andy Cortez for Team Purple with 169 points. Nice! In second place, he performed much better than his last showing. So really, he's the big winner this week. It is Carl Jacobs for Greg Miller for Team Blue with 178 points. And the winner of today, it seems to be the chair, maybe both the men. It is Ben Starr playing for one.

Tim Geddes for Team Orange with 221 points. Again, those final scores aren't sanctioned by me. It didn't matter. Come on. It didn't matter because, of course, Ben Star is our victor by a large margin here.

Congratulations, Ben Star and Team Orange. Barrett, if you can bring up the star standing so we can catch people up of what's going on with the season. Of course, coming into this episode, Team Blue was sitting at two stars. Team Purple was sitting at one star. And Team Orange was sitting at five stars. Today, Team Orange gets their sixth star.

Wait, does that mean that Andy has not won? And he only got one star, and it was last week, and Roger won it for him. Yeah. Yeah. This is a setup. Listen, you played true to Team Purple today. That's all. Hey, what the fuck does that mean?

It's because Andy's a patient answerer is what I'm saying. He takes this time. You know, he lets it. I know where you live. Yeah, be careful about what you say, man. Of course, special guests, thank you so much for joining me on this episode, a Game Showdown, Ben Star, Stella, Carl. Is there anything that you guys would like to promote?
