Today is the E3 predictions episode.
We're going to do what we always do. Go around the table.
Each taking turns, giving some
predictions, giving some Gatorade, get hype moments, all the craziness.
This one's going to be a little bit different, though.
Why?
Why? You may ask. Ask why, Andy.
Why? Thank you. Because E3 is different this year.
There's no PlayStation. The conferences are kind of all thrown.
No real EA conference. No real EA.
So it's usually what we would do is we each come with five predictions for PlayStation
5 for Microsoft, 5 for Nintendo, and then 5 for Other.
But that doesn't really make sense here.
So instead, we decided just do 10 overall.
and we'll kind of have the discussion that way,
taking turns one by one as we go through these predictions.
That is something we do.
But before we do that, I just want to talk about E3 as a whole.
How are we feeling?
What are our hype levels?
It's two weeks from now, or fewer than, actually.
Week and a half, EA play kicks off on June 8th or something, right?
Just to set that stage.
I guess by the time people hear it, it's a week away if you're on YouTube.
Great Bill, you have something to say that Joey gave you the right to sell.
I got a whole bunch of stuff to say.
You know what I mean?
Go for it, man.
So we're talking about E3, ladies and gentlemen.
Cacao, that's a pre-show reference.
You missed 30 minutes of great content.
What's happened with my tongue, Tim?
There's only one way to know.
Watch the pre-show.
It's true.
That's not a lie, Tim.
I'm not selling any good here, ladies and gentlemen.
Well, I got it.
But let's get back to E-3 and get serious for a second.
E-3 the best time of the year.
What Joey's greenlighting me to say is something that's happening on Thursday night.
But what I want to talk about is just in general,
the kind of funny plan for E3, Timothy Gettys.
Let's go, baby.
So Saturday is E.
I'm down there.
Andrew is down there.
We're hosting stuff down there.
You can watch.
Not a real conference, though.
You know what I mean?
It's just developers talking about their games, which is awesome.
It's awesome.
Yeah.
Sunday then is when E3 Popper starts with all the press conferences, right?
So as usual, every one of the major press conferences, so Microsoft, Bethesda, in terms of the first day, we'll be doing the pre-and-post shows for.
Then Monday, same deal.
Including watch-alongs.
Yes, watch-alongs as always.
Twitch.com.
That's where the pre-and-post shows are as well.
These will also all go up on YouTube then afterwards, right?
The post shows are gamescast.
And podcast services.
Post shows are podcasts, and it'll go up on gamescast for you to services,
and you can watch them live on Twitch or watch them later on YouTube.
Watchalongs, you only get posted to YouTube after they're done on Twitch.
Monday, the other major conferences, right?
So it's going to be what?
Square at the end of the night, Ubisoft.
To start the day in the afternoon.
Yeah.
Right smack dad in the middle.
Is it us?
It's us.
There's no other one.
Kind of funny games showcase, June 10th, 430 p.m.
More than 60 indie games coming to show you the goods.
hosted by myself and Tim and some guest stars maybe probably.
And you can watch that.
And it'll be up on YouTube.com slash kind of funny games.
It's a YouTube premiere.
We're not doing a Twitch thing for it.
We urge you and encourage you to co-stream it on Twitch,
put it up and, you know, react to it and do all that chess.
But we just thought for YouTube,
it's what we're trying to do.
Just better to have it one place, not worry about it.
Set that notification so you get it.
Tuesday morning.
Nintendo.
What happens? Oh, yeah.
Big old Nintendo.
Put it in my name.
Or they call them the Nintendo dog.
The Nintendo.
Walking in.
Doug Bowser riding in saying it's my mind.
time. Doug Bowser? If we don't, I'll be
very upset. The Nintendo Dog Pug
Bowser. What is it going to be coming?
Go out there.
If we're just getting out,
I mean, if Doug Bowser doesn't show his
face, he's scared.
That's a huge problem for me. That's a huge
problem for me. If the camera cuts,
he just beat the shit out of Reggie.
Go around the table. Do we see
Doug Bowser in the Nintendo? Yes.
Yeah. They're going to announce a new game
called Doug Bowser World.
Can you please you're serious about your YouTube
pretty aggressive here.
I'm trying to talk about Doug Bob's beating the show of Reggie.
You're here making jokes over here.
You know what I mean?
Tim and we do the reaction again.
Pre-show, watch along, post-show, gamescast YouTube.
You've already heard how that's broken up live on Twitch.
After that, Tim and I, we get a single-engine Cessna.
We go down to L.A.
We go there, Tim and I immediately start seeing Vigia games.
Having a great time.
Drinking our faces off.
I got dinner with Jeremy Dunham.
I'm very excited.
Cool.
Yes.
Wednesday.
Wednesday.
We are going to go see a bunch of.
games all throughout the day.
No, no.
That's canceled.
That's canceled indefinitely.
I'm surprised you didn't hear that.
You should have come to the meeting.
Wednesday, we're going to go see a million different games we can't talk about.
I'm hosting a coliseum panel I can't talk about.
Then at the end of the night, Tim, you and I are going to a hotel room and or bar
and recording a games cast of what we saw for the day.
That goes up at hopefully, knock on wood, as a YouTube video.
The next morning.
Right.
So the thing that we, the games cast we record on Wednesday, that will be everything that we play
Tuesday and Wednesday will go live Thursday morning.
Right.
Then Thursday, what happens?
So then, Thursday, we see a million more games.
I don't have you looked at the schedule.
I jammed it up.
I'm gonna pack you a PB&J and a power bar
because you just are working non-stop.
I love it.
Then at 6 o'clock, we are doing our annual tradition
of taking over GameSpot.
So from 6 to 6.30, isn't it?
We're doing a meet and greet over there.
Because I have it right now that just have,
we're at the GameSpot base station at Chick Hearncourt,
which is over at LA Live, right?
Yes.
Where the Battlestation thing was before.
We're there from 6 to 8,
and I believe it's 630 to 8.
we're doing the panel.
If I understood correctly, it's six to seven is the meeting group.
Okay, seven to eight is the podcast.
Gotcha. So we're doing a meeting greet over there that you can come get in line for
and hang out with us at six to seven. Then we do the podcast seven to eight.
Then we go. Then we go. Thursday night you said? The fun's not over.
What and when are we posting that? When does that go up?
That will go up there's Friday morning. Friday morning. Got cool. Game stands.
All you stop because Friday we're hanging out with our boys at easy allies.
That's right. What are we doing? We're not sure. They're doing a stream. They're doing a
stream, we're going to be on that stream, but we're also going to record
Mondays, games cast, with some people from Easy Allies.
I'm not trying to be cagey, we just don't know. We'll see who's not busy.
Literally, we're about to take a laptop with a webcam and go in random room
that they give us and just see who walks in. Exactly. We'll see what happens.
And I left one off to. The maid. All the way back, all the way back, all the way back to Saturday.
EA play. Once that's wrapped, I'm running over to Ghostbusters Fan Fest and hosting the
Ghostbusters, the video game remake, or remastered panel.
Of course you are.
So heads up if you're going to ghostbuster fan fest.
I'll see you there.
Will we kidnap Dan Aykroyd, you and me?
Let's find out.
Is he going to be there?
Oh, yeah.
Shut the fuck up.
For real?
Yeah, dude.
Wow.
Jason Ritman's there.
Any Hudson's there?
Wow.
No, come on now.
Now, of course, Bill Murray's Bill Murray.
Bill Murray, not scheduled to be there.
Is Bill Murray's just going to walk in and be like I'm Bill Murray?
Possibly.
We'll have to see.
Two.
All right.
All right.
We're doing a lot for E3.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
But again, that even, that said, different E3.
Only me and Greg are going down.
In past years, we've sent the whole team.
That was the only event that we've ever sent all kind of funny members, too.
But this time we're not, reason being, what's up here?
Also, Dave Cooleyer going to be there.
Yeah.
James Banking of the Realgo.
But reason being is this is a different E3.
Not as much to do, not as much to see.
And on top of that, in terms of games cast crew, Greg and I would be there.
Rand's going to be there.
Rand's going to be there.
So all the people talking about their hands-on experience, they're going to be there.
Well, I'm sure Fran will be too busy for us.
He'll have to go do another 12 community podcast.
I was not in, so wait, am I doing any of the gamescast stuff you're saying?
No.
Do you want to be?
Do you want to come on Wednesday?
You can't know what I'm saying is you're going to get your hands on games.
I'm covering stuff for whenever we come back to play.
Gotcha.
Yes.
That's what I didn't know.
I thought you were saying I'm too busy for the Thursday, whatever day it was.
And I was like, I don't know.
You're free to be on any of our content.
But anyway, I'm going down there as well.
Yes.
Very excited to see stuff.
I'm going to the Microsoft conference.
What else?
There was a...
Oh, yeah, if there's the Fortnite party, I'll be there,
and then I'm still...
I want hands-on reports from the Fortnite party.
Oh, yeah.
What you're getting into?
What did you eat?
What did you drink?
They got some sliders?
They got some sliders?
That's what I knew.
Oh, they definitely will have slides.
Their sliders they had last year were really good.
Worth pointing out for the first time ever,
yeah, it's just me and Tim down there.
You guys, thank you.
You guys are all down there doing your thing.
Big face.
But more importantly, for the first time ever,
we have a kind of funny correspondent.
Kind of funny's never really gone to the press conferences
because we're always live reacting to him.
So this time around we said,
who could we send there
to get a temperature read on all the situations?
Oh, I think I know who it is.
Snowbike Mike.
I heard about that.
I heard about that.
I just put it.
That's amazing.
It's going to be great.
He's going to lose his mind.
Will he join us in some of these podcasts?
Maybe we need to see.
Will we call Pete Hines before the Bethesda show
on the live stream?
Definitely.
Guarantee it.
Guarantee it.
And yeah,
and a cool thing too with this is for some of the conferences
and I can't confirm which ones yet.
because they're still working on that, but we're going to be featured on Twitch's live stream.
Oh.
So Twitch.tv.com.
Sure.
Our pre-impos shows are going to be the featured ones.
Nice.
Yeah, it's always there.
Twitch presents, right, one of the two.
Probably, probably Twitch.
Andy, everything I just said would be great if you could put in a graphic for me.
A little infographic.
Maybe you do it on your phone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's going to be fun.
But again, jokes aside, all this bullshit aside.
E3.
I can't wait.
Yeah.
Totally.
It's E3.
It's still going to be an awesome E3.
Hipped I've been.
for an E3 ever.
Yeah, and having said that, I'm still hyped.
But normally I'm going in and I'm just like, holy shit, what are we going to get?
And I do feel the lack of PlayStation is a major killer to me because when I'm coming up with these
predictions, like I feel like PlayStation is always the most fun because they're the one
that always have the best presentation and come with the most hype surprises, I would say,
at least in the last couple years.
So them not being there, I feel kind of tarnishes that level of it.
And it's not like there's some huge crazy thing
that I'm expecting to see blown out.
The exception being Microsoft
and what they're going to end up showing
with the X cloud.
That's what gets exciting about it though
is what is Microsoft going to do?
What is Xbox going to do, right?
It seems that it's confirmed.
It's two hours long.
They're doing two hours of press conference.
That's been the rumor from this week.
They always do close to 90 minutes,
sometimes a little shorter.
It's always around 90 because they'd never be go over.
But I think a lot of that has to do with the fact
that there's not a PlayStation conference.
So they're kind of, they become the premier conference, which is great.
And it's leading the conferences.
The first conference we get is Microsoft because EA play, not a conference, more of a,
oh yeah, there's Sunday.
Really, there's Sunday around noonish for Microsoft or something you're saying?
Yeah.
So it's just interesting because usually we get PlayStation kind of ending it all on Monday night.
And then Nintendo comes in.
Well, that's always the way it kind of works.
It feels like Microsoft comes out and does first swing and then PlayStation does last swing.
And then Nintendo's its own thing.
Well, we had EA.
But you, yeah.
In previous years.
Sure.
But you make the biggest point, which we've already talked to about a little bit.
Like Sony PlayStation was a vehicle for a lot of trailer announcements, just third party announcements.
Even EA itself would sometimes hold back something just for the big conference.
And now you have this huge gap and they're going to add 30 minutes, it sounds like, to the
PlayStation conference's first parties aside, we get, that's where we got Resident Evil 7,
that's where we got Resident Evil 2, that's where we got Final Fantasy 15.
That's where at Kingdom Hearts, it's like, PlayStation's conference is usually where we get these
kind of bigger announcements from the third parties.
And now that you've got to assume that's going to be Microsoft.
It turns all eyes to Microsoft.
Because that's the only place they can be.
Exactly.
Yeah, Microsoft's got to be feeling like, you know, the headliner of this concert is not
playing tonight.
This is our, like, chance to shine.
I'm really excited what they have the show with all their first party acquisitions and
stuff, if we see anything because it's, you know, it's only been a year since
those announcements were made.
I think you're going to see a lot of that.
I think they need to start laying the ground work for why you need to be
excited for the next box, right?
The Anaconda or the scarlet or whatever.
Like you here's the reasons and the proofs in the pudding and this is what we've been working on where they're going even if it is just
Teaser trailer showing you what's happening how they're doing the initiative or whatever coalition all them
Coalition's doing a Gears right? Yeah. It's the initiative that was the new Santa Monica one? I always fucked that one up. Yeah
initiatives new Santa Monica
You just did everyone's predictions in two minutes. Oh there's more than that. Don't you worry out that brother and then yeah you we've talked about it before square like what are they doing when they come out here at the end
I mean that's the thing man I we that we know what they're doing we know Avengers we know
No, Final Fantasy 7.
And, like, that alone is like, cool, that's going to be a great conference.
Like, those are two of the biggest possible titles that last year going into E3,
those are two ones that we're like talking about being at Sony.
Those were like the big, like, question marks of, will they be there?
What are they going to announce?
And then they both kind of flubbed it and weren't there at all.
But now with the confirmation of them being there, like that's huge, especially knowing that there's going to be stuff in the middle,
probably a lot of very Japanese games.
Yeah.
But that's right.
They have those are two big headlines, 6 p.m.ish Monday night, right?
Yes.
Because it takes over the Sony
30?
Yeah, six.
Our 530s are.
Our 530s are pre-show.
Twitch.com.
Funny games.
Going back to what Andy said
about showing off
of like what Microsoft
have to show off
with the acquisitions.
Phil Spencer did tweet out
about lots of show.
We have 14 Xbox games
studio games
in the show this year,
more first party games
than we've ever had in a show.
Yeah, that's great.
I mean, we know about
a lot of those games already.
We know Ori, we know.
Dears 5.
Gears 5, Halo Infinite.
Yep.
So there's more too
But yeah
Off top of our head
It's a little
We got a lot in our
Prediction sheets
See I'm playing this fast and loose
I just have a whole thing of predictions
I do too
As we go around the table
I'm gonna pick and choose
How we want to do this
Fair I told Greg
I told Greg I'm doing
What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna say seven
I'm gonna say seven predictions
And I'm gonna steal one from each one of you
But that doesn't
But that's not how this works
I like I don't think you steal
Our point if we get to write
I just think it's a cool.
It's an Andy approved sticker.
Andy approves of this prediction.
Hey, good one right here, man.
Like, you know, dat me up.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
You want to be a crossover.
You want to start us off, Greg?
Well, so hold on, just so it's clear, because I guess this is your first time doing this.
Yeah, it is.
If someone else says your prediction, it's not your prediction anymore.
Oh, okay.
It becomes their prediction.
Right.
Well, yeah, I mean, we wouldn't double.
The gamification of this, ladies and John.
I didn't get that part.
Because you're trying to get them points.
So you need to strategically.
Well, depending on what order goes, you go
And I'm not to have much to say
Because I'm sure you have a lot of that's on my list
We'll see.
I'll start with Greg
I think we're going around Robin though
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oh, here we go
Yeah
And I'll be as long time viewers know
And I'm sure some of you are new
So I'll explain again
But longtime viewers know this iPod
Let me bend the ears of the newcomers of course
If we know something off the record
We don't predict it
So that and I won't lie to you
This is a tough year for me
Yeah
I feel like I know a lot of shit
about and I'm not, and for the record, I'm not talking about Jedi because you know I'm hosting that
a EA player or whatever with Andrea. I don't even fucking seen that game. I can't wait to talk to
people about that game. I'm not talking about that. Other games, I know a shit ton of out. And it's
really put me in an awkward position of like, fuck, I would have predicted that, but it's too late.
I digress. Here we go.
Square Enix starts their conference with Marvel's Avengers.
Final Fantasy 7 is in the middle. And Square Enix ends with the announcement of Final Fantasy
16.
Damn it!
See, this is how the game is played.
He's already fucking me.
That's why I needed you up to that one.
Yeah.
I got stuff in here you wouldn't even think about
because you're an idiot.
I totally buy that.
I don't think it's a sure thing.
But I think that there is a high likelihood.
I've said this a million times.
We have never went anywhere near this long
not getting a proper Final Fantasy announcement.
Yeah.
15 was announced, I mean,
debatably how you want to talk about it.
When it was versus 13.
Yeah.
Right.
Decades ago, it feels like.
But even as 15, that was 2013, I want to say.
So then the game came out.
It's been out years now.
And no 16, kind of weird.
I think now it would be the time.
It'd be interesting for them to focus and release announce that next to Final Fantasy
7 making its actual, like, real debut with stuff.
But I'm feeling it for me as well.
If you want to take a step further, Greg.
Do you have any more thoughts on what Final Fantasy is?
16 might look like.
I think it's going to be a very
a CG trailer.
I don't think we're going to get any gameplay.
It's not,
it's going to be like a bunch of weird shit
where you don't know 100% know what's happening.
And then you get the title screen.
There'll be some stupid noise in the front
that makes you go
and then I'll be like,
and you'll be like, it's for a person.
Oh man, I got this big sword.
Oh, I don't know what to do.
I know what to do.
Is that Troy Baker?
I don't know what to do.
Oh my God.
What are we going to do?
I'm going to drive this car
because I like Drew beer.
I don't know.
And then it'll be Final Fantasy 16.
The classic Final Fantasy stereotypes.
What I was trying to get at,
I was asking you is,
do you think it's going to be more the style of like this futurist style
or is going to go back to like fantasy ass fantasy stuff?
Ah.
I think, you mean like,
Final Fantasy 9 style?
Yes, exactly.
I think that it's going to be,
the original tech demo they put out in like 2012,
Agnes philosophy,
which was kind of cool,
realistic looking stuff,
but it was a female protagonist.
and there was a lot more magic going on,
I think that that game is going to be fall past C-16.
Gotcha.
So, cool.
This one's for Joey.
Where are you at, Joey?
Don't even say it, you little shit.
Where are you at, Joey?
It better be good.
It would be good.
It'll leave a lot of O-F-A-Gs for me.
I mean, it's really not.
It's just, this was for Joey.
She just wanted, she wanted me to call something out.
During Nintendo's presentation,
Animal Crossing for Switch will be,
the release date will be announced for August 6th, 2019.
Congratulations, Joey.
Congratulations.
You're getting into the game this year.
So you're happy about that?
I am happy about that.
I definitely thought you were going to say they were just going to say that.
Why that date?
I thought you were going to bring a Pokemon snap.
2025.
Oh, no, no.
No snap.
You're not crazy.
So realistic predictions.
They already didn't.
Do you know that date mean anything in the Animal Crossing world?
No.
You just pick the date.
No, I'm just saying it's coming out.
I'm saying it's coming out soon.
We're getting you a date soon and it's going to like kind of, oh shit, that's a lot
sooner than we thought.
Everybody's going to have that reaction.
August feels a little.
I've hacked already for Nintendo though.
So I don't know if they would do that.
I feel like Animal Crossing would be more of a, like September earliest,
but I could be a December, first week of December.
Did I say August 5th?
You meant December 6th, whatever that is.
I meant September.
I don't think it's September either.
I think of December.
My money would be December for Animal Crossing.
What if it is August 6th?
Get yourself a little snowfall in town.
I feel like an idiot.
It sounds pretty good now.
I could just add that in if they give a
to us in August or September.
That's true.
Have a snowy event.
Fran.
Well, I'm just going to start with the obvious one, but I'm going to at least give some detail.
I mean, this is going to be.
A lot of people play for granular points.
Yes.
So I've got exactly.
Now I'm getting a little more of it.
I'll do my best to follow now that I know we're doing.
But this is good enough, I think.
Obviously, the next Xbox, that's going to be announced.
That's sort of unknown.
But when you think about it, this is the first.
Do you think it's a known?
Do you think for sure?
So, no.
So that's what I'm going out.
with some risk here, but this is Microsoft's chance,
and let me get to it,
it will be the first next-gen gameplay you see on consoles.
This is their opportunity,
and they're going to throw that out there.
Not just the name, not just ExClaught is this,
and it's going to be Games Pass, and think a lot.
But do we got the name?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, no, name?
Oh, you threw me for a loop on that one.
Let me focus at first time.
They're going to announce the name.
Xbox Plus Plus.
The name?
I don't know if they'll do the name.
They might stick with like, it's coming,
but we want to show.
you what the future looks like.
We're getting the name.
And why they've been, you think the name will be there too.
If you predict that we're getting the name, I'm taking that one.
I'm putting it on my list.
Which is fine.
You take the name.
But what excites me, and I do think it's very plausible.
Like this will be the first, like, from their studios or something from a studio.
We will see what the future looks like on a console because like I was just playing,
what was I playing on PC recently that looked really good?
Anyway, oh, rage.
TurboTex.
I knew it.
It was rage.
There it is.
lot of people. People are, oh, this game looks good and a couple of games right now.
And I was like, I think this is a good glimpse into what that future might look like.
But everything between Ray Trace and all that, they might be the first to come out and say it's coming and here's what it looks like.
Gameplay.
Play, play, play.
So to clear this up, because I want to clarify for the points here.
Is they'll show next Jane gameplay on the next Xbox and they'll make that clear.
The goddess gameplay.
It may not be real games.
I'm saying that it's going to be this.
is a real tech demo of gameplay.
Not what it may look like,
but a real tech demo that...
Everything you just saw was not...
It was in the engine.
Yeah.
That was running on Xbox 2.
From people working on the platform.
All right.
My first one, Microsoft's conference.
George Railroad Martin.
Yeah, I wanted to...
From software.
Yeah.
It's real.
The rumors are real.
We're seeing it at Microsoft.
No date.
No year.
No anything.
You just see it.
Just like his books.
Exactly.
And people get real fucking hyped
because it looks dope as hell.
Sure.
Is this a gameplay trailer?
It's just a teaser 30 seconds of...
That's my thing is I'm imagining
more of the hype, CG stuff,
a lot of text.
Just building the world of what this is.
That type of stuff.
Really close ups on the blade.
Bonfires being laid.
Yeah, exactly.
You'll see the horse.
It was too close.
It was too close.
You ride a horse
towards like these kingdoms.
I think you'll see, yeah, you'll see
I think you'll see a glimpse of gameplay.
Gameplay?
Yes.
Oh yeah.
No gameplay.
I think.
Really?
Oh, okay.
You'll see a glimpse.
Like whether it's meaning to
just behind the horse,
not like, say, fighting,
but like just real.
Like just the horse's legs.
In other words, what I'm saying is
in engine.
Oh, okay.
Not cut scene art, you know.
So do you think there'll be in,
Engine, like, game stuff?
I don't think there'll be gameplay.
No asset game.
In Engine, at this point, CG and in
engine, things look so good, so it's like...
They're very different, though.
They are. Assets are not. You know what I'm saying? Like, a Final Fantasy
cutscene is not an asset. Well, depending
now, yeah, you're right, actually. I think we
will see something like for Anna's talking about.
I don't think it's going to be
overhead with the UI
and the character. No, I don't think we'll see that.
Greg Miller. Number
two.
Bethesda
is ready to make you believe in fall at 76 again.
They spend a healthy chunk of the show talking about it.
They don't shy away from the early criticism of it.
And they announce an event slash expansion.
I'm not sure which.
That really turns heads.
Once it's here, that expansion,
it'll be marked as this is the rebirth of a final,
or fallout 76.
This is like the true launch.
They'll announce a free weekend
and a bunch of atoms for players who have already purchased it
and they will take a shot at Anthem.
Ooh.
I like that.
I like that.
Wow, wow, that's really specific.
The shit-talking part is my favorite.
Gutsy considering how their launch went.
But I mean, hey, everybody, we know we had a bad launch.
Not as bad as some.
Pete Hines, fucking high-fives, Tom Howard.
The Doom guy comes out and fist on stage.
I think that you're right, and that kind of disappoints me.
That's going to take a shot at anthem?
No, no, that's something fine with.
It's the lengthy focus on.
fallout 76 in this conference. We've heard you.
We screwed up and then like that whole thing
we apologize but here's why it's going to be amazing. See I don't
think it's that much. Oh you don't think so.
Now it's time to switch gears to fall out 76.
I know like thinking man we had a rough
launch but then they start showing
the people commenting of like how
they've had a great time and they've really brought it together
and blah blah but we're in a different place. But the world
you've created has impressed
us so much. We've given you the ability
to be the vendors in the game. We've been
do that. We checklisting of all these things they've done
and stuff. Yeah. We fucked up.
Yeah, I like that.
I like that one.
I'll think about that one.
Is it coming to Switch or any?
No, no, God, you can't.
We should ask that at the end of most of these.
Every single one.
Is it coming to switch?
Andy.
At one point in the Nintendo direct,
Phil Spencer will pop out
to talk about more collaborations.
I don't have specifics yet.
Give me a specific, Andy.
Come on number one games journalist.
Give me a specific.
What do you hear?
I need some help you.
I can help you here.
Yeah, help me out.
Well, it rhymes with Bori.
Oh, you think Ori is.
I mean, out of all things, I feel like already won.
I mean more of a service thing.
I mean more of like an Xbox Live.
Like, I think they're going to have more details on Nintendo's online service and talk about
how they are helping out a lot with that.
I mean more of like back end shit.
Not necessarily titles.
I don't think so, man.
That doesn't feel like a Nintendo Direct, especially on Nintendo Direct E3 move.
I feel like if Microsoft want to talk about that stuff, it'd be at Microsoft.
Yeah, I don't think they'll be in the video.
I don't see Nintendo popping out in my...
Microsoft's offer thing
You don't?
I see them talk about
I'm sure it's on your prediction
but XCloud coming
in how it gets involved with Switch
on part of their
Sorry,
Games Pass announcements
they'll say and also
they'll probably announce it
as Microsoft because it's their service.
I would say there's a higher chance of them
focusing on Xbox Game Pass
and X cloud and all the stuff being like
it doesn't matter where you play it
if you play it on your Nintendo
and we've even partnered with Nintendo
and games has coming sued
more on that later this year
and check it out. Phil Spencer
wearing a Mario shirt, Doug Bowser
wearing a Master Chief shirt.
That's it.
That's good. That's good.
What shoe hay wearing in that equation?
His pajamas.
He's in home washing.
He better be there.
Where to jump to next?
I'm going to give it to you.
Destiny 3 in the minute.
No, Kappa.
It is not happening.
No Destiny 3 yet.
Because we know the Destiny 3 announcement
is June 6 days after you hear this.
Not Destiny 3.
Sorry.
Okay, hey.
First of all, I don't know that.
We think it's season past.
I screwed up.
I'm gonna go with, I'm just gonna get out a fan favorite out of the way.
The Metroid Prime trilogy is real.
That was literally all about to say.
I knew that he, yeah.
You took George R. Martin and from software.
I would have tried to you, buddy.
Try to play the game.
It's all about the game.
It's all about the game.
It's all right.
You've got plenty more Nintendo stuff, I'm sure, on your list.
But Metroge Prime trilogy is real.
Now it's gonna fade up a little bit for a second.
Maybe we think that it's, you know, the next Metroid.
I don't think don't want to mislead us, but we'll see it.
We'll be like, yes.
Oh, it's the trilogy.
Okay, but it's buying us time until whenever we get the next Metroid Prime 4, which we know is being made and it got shifted between studios.
I guarantee it.
Yeah.
General Taze it at E3 this year. All right.
They would have to.
Well, they have to.
I'm talking like assets, though.
And I do believe, yeah.
You don't think it'd be the same assets,
but they just up res up residence to $1080,
and it runs at 60, so everybody's happy.
I'd take it.
At Ubisoft's press conference,
we will get another Nintendo collaboration.
So there was Rabbids.
There was the Star Fox.
To get some specifics.
Some specifics.
Was there ever Mario Rabids 2 yet?
There hasn't been.
That's probably it.
Davy is going to come out, cry his eyes out.
Yeah.
He's awesome.
That was the director, game director.
Yeah, that was a great moment.
Great moment.
It was really,
I feel like that's so easy to say.
What's the property?
Is that it's Robbins 2.
But see, it's sometimes, Tim, it's forehead.
You got to play the game, Tim.
Yeah.
I know.
I don't think it'll be a rabbit.
He doesn't play to win this game ever, though.
He just plays for Get Hight moments.
Here's my thing, though.
This is the first time.
It's like, there's not that many get,
we know too much.
Yeah, you need to choose.
Like, are they going to partner on,
like they're gonna bring Donkey Kong over to Ubisoft?
Are you just saying they're gonna do something?
Because that is a little.
No, well, something I'm in Nintendo collaboration.
In the same way like last year they did the Star Fox and Starlink.
Yeah, but that was specific.
Yeah.
Star Fox in Starlink.
Yeah.
You're gonna bring it home, Tim.
You're right there.
Watch dogs screen, Nintendo dogs.
Here's a thing.
I'll say this then.
To keep it fun and to keep this get hype.
There will be a new IP that features Nintendo characters.
So it'll be like when they announced Rabbis and it was like,
what the fuck?
Whatever that roller game is. It'll feature a Nintendo carrie. Have you seen that roller derby?
Something. It's the roller derby game. Oh, yeah. It'll feature Doug Bowser. I'm thinking like it'll be more similar to the rabbits thing, but I'm not my prediction is not rabbits too. It'll be a new IP. What if it's based on Mario rabbits and it's like but new fran?
Roller champions. Roller champions. We'll see. Yeah, I'm trying to get something out of it.
Greg Miller. Yeah. Roller champions. That was the new IP.
Rumored though. They haven't talked about it, right?
Sure.
Correct. I said in financial...
Okay.
What's that? There's a lot to choose from, Greg.
I know. I know. I know.
But you gotta win the game.
I know. It's all about it.
I think.
And we check on this after E3. That's the idea.
They do.
Yeah, the subreddit's a flame with people arguing over who gets the points.
Then we usually...
I usually take a victory lap on the game's cast because I always win and we have a great time.
You also know a ton of stuff.
It's going to make...
I know. I just said I don't...
I don't make, that's why you don't see me.
There's a lot of slam dunk, John Hopkins, Tomahawk, James.
I should be doing here, but I'm not doing them.
I was going to say, you're stilted in this episode because like,
exactly, hands are tied on my back.
What are you going to do?
To be clear, a second ago, I said that we know too much.
And by that I just mean, everyone knows too much.
Like, we know what the C3 is.
But then I know specifics.
You know a lot of specific stuff too, but like, I just,
the George Armarin thing.
Like, yeah, we know a lot of shit.
Our predictions are just, we believe it's true.
And that's one of, this is it.
I think last year we saw a lot, right, with leaks coming into E3 for the Nintendo Switch in particular of things that would be there.
Remember how, like, as we were getting ready to do the cast last time.
It was on the predictions episode.
Exactly.
That stuff broke or whatever.
I believe in everything you've seen and heard, the rumblings, the store listings, the scuttlebutt.
And I believe that at the Nintendo Direct, you will in fact get Witcher 3.
Oh, that's been out there.
I have that on my two.
I feel like that makes sense.
So it's like a game of the year port or whatever it was.
Yeah, exactly.
With blood and wine and all that stuff bundled in,
just be this huge fucking game for your Switch,
which I will 100% probably play way more of
than I did, which are three on consoles and stuff.
If you don't want to count that,
because that's easy,
I'll partner up my other CD Project Red one if you want.
You can't do that.
No, no.
No.
You can't do that.
What, you're going to take you?
My next one is related.
But hopefully...
Fucking going.
And you just saying what CD Project Red.
Say they close.
Let's see.
At Xbox's conference,
Halo Infinite is shown a longer, there's a longer trailer for it
and it's given a release window for summer 2020.
That's it. That's it. On
the next gen Xbox. And of course, playable backwards. Yeah.
It's playable everywhere.
Because here at Microsoft, we believe that you, the gamer, needs whatever the fucks.
Yeah, my Halo prediction there was that it's going to be a Halo Infinite.
We're going to get a launch next gen next year.
summer 20-20 or do they do like the halo two thing with fall?
I think it's fall.
Yeah?
Because I feel like it needs to coincide with the new system.
But are you saying it's cross-play, cross-gen?
That it's, in other words, they're going to announce that it's coming next year.
They give you the date plus they say,
and you already saw the next Xbox and of course, well, you probably would have seen it.
I'm still pretty firmly in the boat that all Xbox games are going to be all over the place
because it's service-based stuff.
There is an article today from Windows Central that they were,
and let me try to make it for you.
Windows, Gregie.
That's where the real action's at.
that's the only people with the great Microsoft
coverage. That's right.
But basically, I'm sorry, what they were saying was
at least to the beginning of what they
were hearing, the rumor was that there would be
no scarlet exclusives.
Yeah, it would be like every.
Now, I've been saying from the get-go.
They heard a rumor that, is that?
That's what they're, yeah, that's what they're reporting.
Oh, because everything's cross, yeah.
But that's what I've been predicting forever with that platform.
I do think I stick by that, and I don't think it's,
they were talking in like a limited window.
Here we go.
Yeah, Windows Central.
Open.
Sesame.
Gandalfoy.
You shall my pass.
Hold on. It's pageinated.
And Windows Central.
Due to some confusion over this paragraph, I've updated
this section, we've heard that there's a
possibility that, at least at launch, there will
potentially be a period where new Xbox
Game Studios titles launch
for both Scarlet consoles and original
Xbox One consoles. This potentially
pertains to the completion of
the game core, which is development of
blah, blah, blah. At launch, we've
heard, there won't be any Xbox Scarlett exclusive games. For at least a few years, games will
ship both Xbox One consoles and on the new Scarlet consoles, as is typically the case during
generational transitions. Yeah. I stand by. I don't think it's going to be a launch thing. I think
it's going to be that. You can run it. You can run this new, brand new, whatever game from Xbox
Game Studios on your launch Xbox One is just in potato quality. I think it's going to be just like
Xbox 1x right now, where it's just a bunch of different, you get to choose performance mode or
this mode or whatever, but it's just going to look a lot prettier. Yeah. Um,
friend.
Oh, it's back to me.
Oh, what else to steal from Tim?
I might steal another one from you.
Do something for your CD Project Red will get real man?
No.
Thank God, okay.
In the Nintendo Direct, we will finally see
the reason, of course, that Retro Studios
was not working on Metroid Prime
because they were so busy with the Star Fox title.
I will lose my shit.
That was not on my list.
But, you know, I do believe some of these rumors are true
about it being racing-focused, Diddy Kong racing?
Star Fox Grand Prix,
inspiration. Yeah, so that's the rumor.
My belief is that
we will see it. This is what, I mean,
again, Retcher's been working on this since
Tropical Freeze or whatever, right?
Which was 45 years ago.
So, it makes a lot of sense they've been working on this.
Star Fox. We haven't really seen it, you know,
other than in Starlink. But it'll be
this combination of racing. Unfortunately, we did. In Star Fox
Zero. But I also believe it'll have a co-op
element of like shooting
some, obviously. It'll be not just
a racer, but you're shooting
scores and...
Double dash?
No, no, no, no.
The rumors are...
It's a bit more adventure-focused where...
I didn't even know that.
It plays more typically, too, like a Star Fox 64,
where...
But the more enemies you shoot, the faster you go.
So it's kind of like a high-score time attack race.
To go farther.
I didn't never hear that, actually.
And that's what I thought it would...
That'd be amazing.
But I thought it might have a co-op mode, too, maybe,
that you can, like, shoot and play together.
I hope that game is real.
The thing about Nintendo this year,
and, like, what I keep saying,
I feel like we know a lot.
It's like, I'd be surprised if we get a lot.
lot of Nintendo new game announcements at this direct. We know so many games are coming this year to
the switch and...
Pokemon, Animal Crossing. Astral chain, Luigi's Manchin. Like, when you start looking at all
of the Fire Emblem, their years kind of stacked. And so forget Metsford Prime trilogy,
which I think we are. The Mario Maker 2, all of that. Like, I don't think there's much time
to announce new games that are coming this year. So if we're getting things, I think it might
be teases for way later. But my prediction,
cyberpunk
277
gets a release
of May
next year
okay
May next year
you stole mine
mine was cyberpunk
27 will be released
before the year
277
don't down
damn
pretty good way
to put it
yeah
specifically
because otherwise
it's not a funding
just what you feel
feels right
Witcher 3 came out in May
if I remember
correctly
so
it came right
it feels like
um momo con
we went to
I'm gonna
disagree
2013.
Well, not the year.
No, the year was 2015.
May 19 to 2015.
I'm going to disagree with the release day thing.
It's just so far, for me personally.
It feels as far way out to do pre-order campaign.
Here's your date.
They'll save that for later, but I do think we'll see a really nice, you know.
We'll definitely see a 45 to 60 minute buying closed door demo.
But beyond that, probably for the audience, they'll give them a 15, 20 minute big chunk of the
demo the watch or something.
Without release date?
During...
Microsoft's conference?
No, not during a conference.
I'm just saying that they were...
release after or during, you know,
we've been seeing stuff behind closed doors.
They'll do, I don't know.
I mean, I won't use this as an official one.
This wasn't on my list.
Mine was Xbox has an onstage
cyberpunk demo. It's long and awesome.
Oh, actually, yeah, that's...
I think that's the thing of like...
Oh, yeah, it's two hours now.
If you remember, they didn't do...
Don't look over here, man.
Don't be cheating.
I'm trying to see what I could steal.
Don't.
If you remember, you know, last year,
their whole thing was, it was behind closed doors.
Everybody came out and talked about how awesome it was,
and they finally, like, what a week later,
maybe a few days later,
but post D3,
They put it online.
Wasn't it a month later?
They streamed?
I feel like it was a while after.
Wasn't that where they had the, it was like, it was like code up and nobody,
like I think they're going to stream the demo.
Then they just played it back.
I think it was a while after because I remember for, there was a bit on Games Daily
where people were writing it like, oh, do you think it's a dumb idea for them to not release
the footage?
But regardless, they did release it, not too long after.
And I think the games in such, it's had a year to get worked on.
It's still so everybody's get hype game, right?
Like I feel like you come out, especially if your Xbox,
here's a dump truck full of money.
Let's get this on stage.
Let's show some awesome shit.
I think you're right.
I think they'll pull it,
The God of War,
which is like, we'll show you the demo.
But by the way,
the press gets the extended behind closed doors.
They'll talk about it even more,
and we'll see more behind closed doors.
So, that adds up.
That wasn't even even.
That was mine.
Yeah, I was waiting.
I was waiting.
I want to be called on.
Yours was released.
The look he gives me.
I hate it.
On Xbox.
Hey, I like the specificity.
Once more.
For the final.
Rock steady
We'll be at the Xbox press conference
And show their new game
It is not Superman, it is still D.C.
This has been a couple years of predictions from you.
I've been hearing suicide squad.
I've been saying it non-fucking stop.
I've heard that rumor.
Suicide Squad was like an early rumor.
Wait, what was it?
Suicide Squad was like an early rumor
And that was like rumor for WB Montreal.
Well, I mean, yeah, but it's just been around the block
right?
Because there was the rumor that what?
It was Justice League.
This is just that Warner Brothers was working.
Huh?
Yeah, just through the years.
Like, I can't see your mouth so hard to tell you're not.
Yeah, that it was, I've heard, of course, and this isn't even rock steady.
This is, let's put Rocksteady and W.B. Montreal in the game, right?
That there was a Superman game that got canned.
That there was a Justice League game that got scrapped and turned into a suicide squad game.
That also got scrapped.
Exactly.
That then there was another suicide squad game that got picked up by Rock City.
That then there was supposed to be a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one.
Then there was supposed to be a golf.
and by gas lamp one that was going to be rocks it's just like then there was I heard one that it was
going to be um it was a rock city one that was going to be a batman game where you were playing
his batman's son but it wasn't in the the arc of universe it was just like what are we fucking
doing yeah there's the thing man that's like borderlands three movie universe borderlands three's real
we predicted that year after year show after show they told us years ago
but it's like this is happening man like rock steady's got to make a name they got to make
They still are fucking people over there.
I see all the time drinking beer.
They've got to be working on something.
They're paying people.
There's cash and checks from W.V.
Yeah, it was what, 2013, 2014 for the last?
Arkham.
Arkham Knight?
No, 2015 was 2015.
It was 2015.
Yeah, that was a kind of, we're out of funny.
It's been about, yeah, four years.
So I had the same prediction on mine.
But interestingly, I said it will, the feature, because we all know it's coming,
easy to predict that, honestly.
But I was willing to go the distance and say it will have a major DC universe
crossover element to it.
What do you mean about that?
Well, I don't know what's going on with Suicide Squad,
but in some way it's not just like Batman Arkham whatever.
Oh, sure.
It's going to feature,
and like not like that world doesn't feature these other things.
It's going to feature stepping wolf.
It's not one hero.
Something like that.
Not one rogues.
It's not a Superman game.
It's not a Batman game.
I mean,
I wasn't going to go that far,
but yeah,
you'll be able to also play the Superman missions,
which will be,
I don't know.
Gotcha.
You play multiple,
you'll live multiple people in the DC universe.
Yeah.
Gotcha.
Andy.
They said it's not going to happen,
but I don't give a shit, dude.
Fuck them.
We're gonna see new switch models.
They will be lighter.
Did they say it's not happening?
I didn't hear that.
Yeah, I was good.
Because I was just making sure that like,
there was reports that apparently that
these new models, I remember a game still earlier,
Andrea reading about this, that they got delayed.
Yeah.
Or I could have sworn I saw something recently saying that like,
no, we will not have any information about.
The Nintendo?
I don't think Nintendo is commenting on it at all.
I don't believe.
Anyway.
Okay.
I just want to make sure this.
So what do you think we see?
One or both?
No, there will be two.
Yeah, there will be two.
Both will be revealed at this E3.
The lightweight version, the bigger, the pro, whatever, the Excel.
Yeah.
Kind of the things we expect, they're going to have fucking Bluetooth audio, God damn it.
They would have Bluetooth audio, smaller bezels.
And yeah, that's about it.
Bigger buttons?
No.
Buttons will be smaller.
Fuck.
You get smaller.
All right, I hope so.
Yeah.
I'm not expecting that.
I think that if we see
Switch revisions, it's just going to be a random
announcement.
Like, I remember we went to watch Guardians
of the Galaxy Volume 2.
We walk out.
We look at her emails and they announced
the Nintendo 2DS.
And we're like, what the fuck happens?
Yeah.
Yeah, I wanted to put that on my list too, but I
Yeah, I think, like Tim,
maybe they'll wait till games come
and they'll have something special.
It'll just be some random Wednesday morning.
Yeah.
Until they're more ready, you know, versus just like saying it's coming in six months.
I agree with that.
All right.
Next one up.
What to choose from.
So many good things.
I should have already had this ready.
I'm going to steal.
I'm going to steal this.
It's sort of an obvious one.
Splitter Cell.
Fuck!
This was a big one.
I know.
And, you know, it's funny.
It was a big one.
I had a smaller one that I wanted to touch on.
But I got to steal the big stuff.
You got to get it first, man.
Splitter Cell is another one of those games where it's like, if we predicted it enough,
eventually someone will get the point.
It's been since 2013, I believe, since Blacklist.
It's a very long time.
This has been just like these other games you're talking about.
It was Borland's.
It was Arkham.
Which is the one that they said goodbye to Solid Snake.
Wasn't there one where Sam Fisher
was saying By to Solid Snake?
I can't imagine that.
Was that a crossing I remember?
It was a reference.
That was a dream you had.
I think there might have been an Easter egg
in Wildland or whatever.
There was like DLC
with like a tease of Splinter Cell
and there was a tease.
There was like a G.
Easter egg mention of someone
Like saying goodbye to another
Sort of like
And it kind of reference solid snakes
So I have more detail
Give me the deeds
It's been since 2013
But finally
We're gonna get the reveal
We all want at the Xbox conference
Whole stadium goes black
And of course
You finally hear it
And then you just hear
Under Black a line from Sam Fisher
Crowd erupts
My name is Sam Fisher
Barrett's pointing out something
What interesting
You said Microsoft's conference
You expect that there over Ubi?
I was thinking, frankly, it would get revealed there, but no.
I'll actually walk the back.
There's so much in Xbox conference.
So I'll steal that.
That's Ubi for sure.
It will definitely be at Ubi's.
That'll be a huge centerpiece in addition.
Well, I'm not going to say anything else.
So there's that.
It'll still be very single player focused.
But of course, you know, with all the games coming out between Ghost Recod and division,
the studios have learned a ton and there will be a major element,
as we've seen a little bit in the past, obviously, with co-op.
But it'll be really a big piece of it.
But I describe it as the close-up division, but also it will come in 2020.
It's not coming this year because they got to stay out of the way a ghost recomb.
It's funny you put that in there because, yeah, I said my one that obviously doesn't count now.
Splinter Cell is back.
It's somehow always online with a weird multiplayer thing that isn't multiplayer.
You dig?
All right.
I'm just going to get this out of ways.
No one fucks me.
Yeah.
Smash Brothers.
Ooh, yeah.
We will get two
DLC character reveals
throughout E3 somewhere.
It might not be the Nintendo Direct.
It might be during the treehouse.
It might be something.
But two smash character reveals.
One of them will be
a Dragon Warrior character.
The other one.
And this is where I'm fucking my points
and I don't care because if I need to bring
some hype into this.
Get hype.
We'll be
Banjo fucking Kazoo.
What?
Wow.
No way.
Dude, Banjo Cazoo would be one of the coolest characters
because of the Cazooie coming out of the backpack and all the attention.
And we all know Nintendo doesn't give us what we want, dude.
They're doing it for a while.
Everyone is here.
Everyone is here.
But the thing is, we have so many options for Banjo to show up.
We have the Smash tournament.
We have just random treehouse stuff.
We have the Microsoft Conference.
We have the Nintendo Direx.
We have CazooieCon.
All parts of it.
of B3. Bantra bash. That's very specific.
But yeah, that's my get hype moment.
But I think the Dragon Warrior character is all
but confirmed. Oh, really?
Okay. I got you.
And you know what? Fuck it.
I'm gonna even more crazy.
At least one of those characters will be
available the week of B3.
Whoa! Okay.
Wow. Okay. I like that. That's bold.
You got some balls on you yet,
kid. I do.
Isn't my turn to him? It is.
Project XCloud finally invites the public to a beta.
You know, it's a, you have to be, it's invite only.
You got to sign up for it, right?
The beta will be in July.
Sign up start today.
Close beta.
Yeah, closed beta where you, yeah, in July.
And you can sign up right now.
Yeah, it's how it is.
That's like to do it, yeah.
It's so great.
It's, of course.
Everybody's pissed off.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, and everybody at the conference can't sign up because there's no reception.
Bad Wi-Fi.
Yeah, the Wi-Fi is.
I like that, yeah, I like that one.
Andy.
The new Ninja Theory game will be revealed, and it will not be like a Senua sequel.
It'll either be like a modern sort of game or like a futuristic sci-fi game.
New IP.
Yeah, new IP for need to sci-fi, you think?
Either like, either a modern-ish game, like modern times or like future sci-fi, mass-effect style planets, things like that.
So not like fantasy or whatever.
I almost guarantee we will see Ninja Theory's next game.
I agree.
Exclusive game, it's going to look good.
Yeah, it's going to look real good.
I mean, they did Heavenly Sort, right?
That's what I was thinking.
Style, maybe bring back some of those fantasy vibes.
Yeah.
Right.
Okay, I got the next one.
Do you, Fram?
Well, I did.
Do you have the type to listen to me one.
Duky, what a fucking album.
Every track.
So good.
Every track is a banger.
Okay, I'm just going to stick with sort of it.
Simple one that you guys.
probably won't care about as much.
But here we go.
What guns getting added to fucking Destiny?
Bring it out.
Shut up, let them go.
They're going to do the fallout 76 with it.
It was the same crossover, but it's Anthem.
They're coming out to tell you about how Anthem is not dead.
And they've been working hard behind the studio, KCUs and all the team.
Where are they going to do this?
Oh, where?
Oh, that's at EA play.
They're going to have like, yeah.
I mean, Greg probably already knows.
Mark, Mark.
No, everybody knows.
From watching yesterday.
You had your head so far up Destiny's ass.
Well, I saw that they released patch notes.
EA Play is not talking about Anthem.
Oh, they said no?
Yeah.
Well, they released the schedule.
It's all broken down.
However, they were doing another prediction.
However, they were doing the thing.
This shows you how dead Anthem is.
Today was four hours ago,
they went live with that live stream
talking about Cataclysm.
They did, yeah.
They said I've heard no one talk about it there.
Yeah.
They said it won't.
They said Anthem won't be featured.
They announced the only games
that will be featured.
So timeout, to be clear.
What they did is they released
the streaming schedule for EA play
where all these games have their blocks.
Six games have blocks of time.
Anthem was not there.
Anthem is at EA play, but not
on the live stream. Anthem is there being shown,
and then, if you give me enough time to dig it out,
I think it's Andrew, his last name
escapes me, the community manager for
Goldberg. Oh, you're talking about, I know.
Nobody, okay, we all know, but it doesn't matter.
He tweeted yesterday, he's like, to be
clear, we're not doing EA play
live stream thing because we're doing it
here, or we're doing the thing
tomorrow for Cataclysm.
Okay.
Well, that was, it's funny, it was a smaller one.
Too bad, you missed it. That was your point.
So long you missed it, you don't get a point for it.
You get nothing.
Well, I'm gonna go wild on you.
No, you don't get it.
Wait, that's it?
I thought Tim said I could go.
You got another one.
Oh, fuck you, Tim.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You're a bad horse.
Time out real quick.
Andrew Johnson, May 29th.
Getting a lot of questions about it,
so I want to clarify that anthem,
hashtag anthem game will still be part of EA play this year.
It's not part of the EA play live stream.
run of show released today because we have a stream
playing tomorrow from here at BioWare.
Wait, they said it'll be part of EA play?
As I just explained, see,
I didn't even listen to the show?
It won't be part of the live stream.
EA play is a big live event that people come to.
The people can play the goddamn game.
There's also going to be mobile games there.
Yeah, but who's going to bring out a game from February
with like a couple patch updates?
So maybe we stick with, well, it's not part of the stream
so I don't believe in it.
It ain't ever either.
Give me a good one, Fran.
Well, I got a good one.
I'm going to go wild on y'all.
It's going to be a good one and nobody's going to believe it.
Jesus Christ, I'm excited.
Because finally, Nintendo has answered Breath of Wild fans.
They're coming back with their twist, the Majors mask.
No.
It's not Majors mask.
But it's their flipping the world upside down, the dark world.
It's built on the Breath of Wild engine.
You're crazy.
And it's all brand new.
And they'll give you a teaser for it.
But it's coming later.
So that I'm interested in this room.
Let's talk about this, all right?
Because we got Link's Awakening coming this year.
We know that.
All right.
So like I was saying earlier,
the Nintendo Direct is already going to be packed
with a lot of games we already know about
and some updates and release dates for this year.
So if we get anything,
it's going to be a small tease for what's coming in the future.
Do you think they have the balls to do that?
Yes.
And over the vagina.
I'm going to stick to my guns because it's been too long
that they always talk about what's coming out
in the next three to six months.
That's their whole new thing.
Yeah.
So it's very reliable.
But I'm going to go with,
they're going to get you hyped
because, you know,
cadence as well as
Link's Awakening. I just think
we need something bigger.
It's been over two years, exactly.
Man, getting a horny over here. They gotta use that engine, man.
All right. I'm gonna go with one
that is so easy, but I want to try to add
a bunch of, like, qualifiers.
Sure, to make it a little more fun.
Watch Dogs 3. Oh, yeah.
London. Yeah. The twists
I'm gonna give it to it. And this year, duh.
Okay, we're gonna see all the shit of Yubesong. I feel like that's
so easy. It's going to have
a much more serious
tone than watchdogs two
had. More similar to
watchdogs one.
Ditching the kind of like fun glasses
and the neon colors of dead
and all that. It's going to be a much
darker. I'll be
encouraged to use my gun here.
Yes. Gotcha. Yes. So that's
what I'm going to say about that.
I like that. I like more specificity.
I want more. I just can't think of anything
that's like real.
And you're the governor of London.
Exactly. We got a governor.
Oh, we got.
Watch Dogs 3.
Oh,
we're just going to pitch
ideas.
Let me put this out there.
Watch,
I want to put a release month on it, okay?
Let's go.
Those are the only qualifiers
I've been putting on mine.
Let's go November.
Tim.
That's what I was.
That sounds right.
It's in November time.
No ass creed.
Yeah.
Yep.
But Tim, here's another qualifier.
I'll give you.
You know, like the modern segments
of Assassin Creed games
now going on.
Yeah.
Put one on there that says
a character from the modern
an Assassin's Creed will be in this game.
I'm not familiar enough
to confirm or deny.
They have conferred. They did a tease in
Watch Dogs one or two
of reference. Is that really
needed? Yeah, of the animus and the
what's the
Templars. What's their comp? Epstergo.
Ah. So. Is that really needed
though? That's just like a little... Frayde is
any of this needed? No. You got a rock and
you got a fucking bug out there. You got food. Why go to
the restaurant? Greg Miller.
Sure.
I can't believe you dumb bastards.
Don't have the vision that I have, all right?
No, don't look.
Andy's got the vision.
Everybody fucking sits here.
Thumb up their butt.
Other thumb in their mouth going, man, I can't wait to see Xbox and Nintendo team up
and have this thing come over there.
And hey, guess what's going to happen?
Oh, maybe it'll be Orion Switch.
Maybe it'll be this.
Xbox's convention is two hours.
It's presser. It's two hours. It's awesome. It comes. It's fucking rocks. Everybody's world. Everybody's a great time. And they leave. And like, that was a great presentation. Interesting. We didn't see this game. Whatever. No big deal. Nintendo direct comes around, right? Finally, and they're like, and now here's Phil Spencer. Phil Spencer comes out. And he says, hey, I'm very excited to welcome this game back to the Nintendo platform. Ladies and gentlemen, here's Battletoads. And shows you Battletoads. Finally making good on his T-shirt promises. Battle T-Tot is still coming to Xbox. Still doing all that stuff.
They don't mention it during the Xbox presser.
It's just that over on the Nintendo
in the Nintendo Direct, that's where they come on and talk about the new
Battletoads.
So he's wearing a baltode shirt and his.
In mine, he was wearing a Mario show.
Well, he's already worn the battle to show.
That was the thing. That was a promise for forever ago.
And then last year they did the teaser trailer for it, right?
Sorry, going on.
Scenario, they announced games pass.
Did they announce yet at Xbox?
This isn't a game pass.
I never said anything about GamePass.
How is it coming to Switch?
Like, they're selling it over there.
Okay.
But they owned the rights to it.
Yeah.
it'll be on both platforms.
Right.
They're just going to publish it.
Yep.
Just like Cuphead.
Yeah.
It belongs over the same way you talk about Ori all the time.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Interesting.
Oh, you're allowed not to know.
You're allowed not to believe.
I can see it.
So when your asses are wrong.
Yeah.
Come talk to me.
Dr.
Feel good.
Okay.
Okay.
Fair.
That's Andy.
Yeah.
Oh, shit.
I'm next.
My bed.
I just thought you were calling me.
This one's really just dumb and small,
but it's kind of like I want it to happen
because I think it'd be cool.
During a sizzle reel,
you know, sometimes you see games in there,
you're like, what the fuck?
What was that?
During an Xbox sizzle reel,
we see Fusion Friends G3.
First off, was there a two?
Yeah.
There was it two?
Yeah.
What?
There was it too, yeah.
I will lose my fucking mind
if we get a Fusion frenzy sequel.
Yeah.
Only playable on the OGXX.
All right.
Yeah, that's my small, dumb one.
I love that.
It makes a lot of sense,
especially if they're doing
a lot of the X cloud crossbets.
That'd be a good one to get in there.
I want to be clear.
It does not make a lot of sense.
No, none of mine do, really.
It's not like a super complicated game.
I'm next, right?
Where do I go next with this?
I'm just going to keep it simple.
Now, you'll have to correct me again
if this has already been shut down or put out there.
But Stadia is going to get involved at E3.
And they're going to announce
three major publishing partnerships in specificity.
I've got to keep asking this.
Where?
Where does it happen?
This is just going to be...
No, I don't think it's going to be in any conference.
I think that, you know...
They're just going to put out a Google video slash press release.
Oh, okay.
Let's call it Tuesday.
Wait until it kicks off after Nintendo.
What are you eating?
I'm eating at the carvery.
Okay.
Hell yeah, they are.
They got good stuff.
seen broccoli.
So yeah, somewhere in there.
Fast, fast and easy.
Yeah, that is a big question.
They got to get involved.
They got to get.
They want to be, yeah, this is the spot and the time for video games.
So even if you're doing the PlayStation thing of, we're not going, it's, you know,
Death Strand and just got announced.
Like, they're still riding the wave of excitement and announcements and all this stuff.
What is Stadia going to do?
What do they have to say?
I'll give you the example.
I didn't plan this to be the prediction, but it'll be something like,
because all the conferences have ended,
and that's why it's on Tuesday.
They'll announce that you'll also be able to play watchdogs
on Stadia in November.
But something akin to that,
I'm not saying it's watched,
but it'll be that level of partnership.
That's not a bad idea, though,
especially with UB and the history of the Odyssey.
Good call, Fran.
Not bad.
All right, I'm going to give one with a bunch of this, this, and that.
Thank you, finally.
I've been waiting from this and this.
Let's talk at Xbox.
I know some of these I'm already kind of overlapping a bit,
but at Xbox's conference,
we will see Ninja Theory's game
we will get a new Xbox studio acquisition
announcement
What do you think?
I don't know
Okay, fine, this is fun
We will get
Gears 5 release date
Yeah
And
The return of Fable
Yes
Confuci
That was on
Yeah absolutely
Fable 3
It's a coming
That's gonna be a big one for
Or four sorry
It's a big one for them
And
Oh he's still on another
one. Babel.
Oh, they's called him. That'd be really smart. I thought you were going to do the
I thought I don't know. DDP comes out. DDP Yoda and that yoga
would connect. Yeah, I like that too. It's a little that
God of worse though. We got big, right?
We're now we're the the thinner ones.
Final four. Yikes. That's fine.
Not that many left. I say one away from
at the Ubisoft conference. Yes. Assassin's Creed Odyssey gets no less than 10 minutes.
of them talking about what's still going on with that game,
what is still coming to that game.
I like your time once.
10 minutes?
Yeah,
and that's what,
well,
I think it's not interesting to be like,
Assassin's screen honesty.
Well,
sure,
they're going to do something there.
10 minutes,
I like that's a lot.
But I feel like it is a,
hey,
like we're not doing,
they don't message you this way,
but hey,
we're not doing a Assassin's Creed game this year.
However,
the game you played last year
if you haven't been paying attention
to gets monthly updates.
There's so many new quests.
We have two new giant DLC sets out.
And then here's what's still to come.
Here's what's happening.
a season pass for a year of some kind.
I mean, yeah, I think they talked about three major pieces of DLC, right?
So there was the original one with the whole first blade, and then it's Atlantis that's
happening now, and there has to be more.
Little light division structure.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
That's the third piece is missing, you're saying?
Yeah, we don't, to my knowledge, I don't think we know anything.
Oh, we don't know about that one.
I've been sleeping a bit on my Odyssey stuff later.
I was thinking they might go further than that.
Oh, I think it will.
I mean, this is going to go until, Odyssey's support will go until the next E3 when they
announced the next Assassin's Creed.
Does anyone else have any Assassin's Creed predictions?
No, I don't know.
Assassin's Creed Ragnarok, the rumored one that was leaked but then confirmed not real,
but then it's like, well, just that leak was not real, but the name's probably real.
Do we hear any reference to the next Assassin's Cru?
I think they will avoid that.
They got too many other big games going on and it's just not ready to show yet.
I honestly believe they are still committed to Odyssey in terms of what they're doing.
I'm looking over here just the year ahead stuff and trying to figure out what's going on in terms of it.
There was Norse stuff.
Legacy of the Hidden Blade
fate of Atlanta was.
Because wasn't the Georgia R. Martin stuff
rumored to be Norse inspired as well or something?
I didn't hear that.
I thought it was just fantasy.
It's like open world traveling to kingdoms.
I swear to something about it.
Now, I might have been mixing it up with Ragnarok, so double check.
Andy.
You may get the heat.
And there's no heat.
There's no heat.
But Greg got me interested in like adding the time frame things.
I like this.
Okay.
We will see six minutes.
minutes or more, six and a half minutes or more.
Yeah.
Of more Splatoon stuff on Nintendo's direct.
Six and a half minutes of Spatune?
When you're getting in you're like, all right, we get it.
Not a chance.
We've watched this before.
We've seen it before, guys.
Yeah.
That's gonna happen.
More Splatoon 2 stuff, dude.
More story DLC, it's a new, whatever, fucking...
It's a Bologna whale this time.
We know, dude.
I love Andy's predictions on the show, man.
Fray.
So good.
Well,
Well, well, keep going, but I'm going to go up here real quick.
But then can you let me know what you have so I can know if I can steal it later?
Right.
If you can steal it.
Open to our bathroom policy.
Just leave it open.
All right.
I was trying to decide which of these it's going to be, by the way.
It's going to be a good one, Tim.
Will you do me a favor of, too, and keep your eye on the chat to see if I got that DLC stuff wrong for us?
I think it's cool great.
Cool, great.
Oh, okay.
Too much information.
I was trying to decide which.
So I'm wrong then.
So it's two chapters of three episodes each were released.
continue the narrative. Legatisies is the first planet and faded
Atlanta, so I just made up the third one. So, I think
there's going to be a third one. So
Capcom will, of course, be playing its part
where? At the Microsoft
conference. The only place possible. Capcom has
been typically at PlayStation.
Yeah, and now they got that.
Of last year, where they debuted
Devil May Cry. Oh, that
was at the Xbox conference. Nice.
So, one, in keeping them with that tradition, we'll go
with that. Nice context. But the
R.E. Engine's just been crushing it, man.
I mean, Resident Evil 2 remake.
devil may cry.
You're getting me going right now.
It's amazing.
So now I know we all want to hear code Veronica's on its way.
Now I think-
Is that what we all want to hear?
I think that we all want to hear.
We want to hear that it's four, right?
That four is being remade.
You don't want to hear that?
No.
Let me finish my prediction because it's not any of those things.
It is that Resident Evil 8,
actually the first person one,
that they're going to actually tease that is on its way.
And they're going to give you the first teaser
that it's on its way.
And that's what I'm going to go with.
I'm excited for...
What were you going to go with?
I haven't thought about Capcom being there
and I'm really excited because I think they will be.
The last couple years they have.
They have Resident Evil 7, they had Resident Evil 2.
They had Devil May Cry 5.
It's like they've been boom, boom, boom.
Yeah, it is a little early.
Like, I just, that R.E.
Engine's going to be cooking something up
and they've been cranking on that stuff.
I feel like eight.
It's a good bet.
Yeah.
What?
What do you think?
I thought you're doing a zombie impression.
Dino, Christ.
Nah, you're crazy.
I mean, anything I like that, that's spicy.
That's very spicy.
That we see like a very real, like, dino crisis.
Interesting.
I like that.
I mean, you're getting real excited.
Just the way you say it.
Okay, okay, hold on.
Right now this is Tim Getty's hype shit.
I'm going off of yours.
Because I'm getting too, I'm getting crazy here, okay?
Dino Crisis, I don't know, no.
But the Tim Getty's Get Hype moment of like Crash Bandicoot.
levels would be if these motherfuckers had the balls to be like it's ony god damn musha they put the
port out yeah of the first game to test the waters it's sold it sold all right sold all right
what does that mean what is it all right means it's too very common you don't see like it did that
it did well but it wasn't like uh you know they're definitely fucking making a new new onymusha
but an ony musha in the r e engine honi musha you actually that's that might be what we're
searching for because like taking the R.E. Engine
doing that and Dark Souls and
Neo, all that's pretty hot, man.
I mean, that would be pretty smart of them.
People are dying to buy those games right now.
What if it's, that's a pretty good one?
You might have just stolen it and turned it
into the truth.
It's possible, Tim. Get excited.
When the hell do I want to go with this one?
Isn't it your last one or not?
No. No. We had four more.
Yeah. Oh, I misunderstood.
I'm just going to.
See what I want to steal one?
Final Fantasy 13 trilogy will be announced at the Square Conference to be coming definitely to the Xbox 1 and PlayStation 4.
Okay, okay, okay.
But will it come to the switch?
Do it.
I'm going to say yes.
Yeah, yeah.
Wow.
Big news right there from Tim Gedding.
Shout to Patreon producers, Muhammad Muhammad and James Hastings, by the way.
Nice job.
Good safe.
Good safe.
Do you want to talk to an ad as well while we're here?
Yeah, also, this episode of Gamescast is brought to you by Hems.
66% of men lose their hair by age 35.
The thing is, when you start to notice hair loss, it's too late.
It's easier to keep the hair you have than to replace the hair you've lost.
Andy Cortez knows this.
Nick Scarpino knows this.
They've both been using for Hymns for years at this point.
You've heard it time after time on all of our different shows.
They love the gummies.
They get the stuff.
It's great.
It was super simple for them.
It's all well-known generic equivalents.
to name brand prescriptions to help them keep their hair.
There's no snake oil pills or gas station counter supplements.
Prescription solutions backed by science.
Kevin loves that.
Science, go far here.
There's no waiting room, no awkward in-person doctor visits.
You can save hours by going to forehems.com.
It's so easy.
You just answer a couple questions.
A doctor will review and prescribe you what you need.
And then the products are shipped directly to your door at a very discreet package.

None of that's good.

It's fair. Great.
Final three.
I know, I know, I know.
Mother 3 is coming to switch, and it's out today.
If they announced Mother 3, it will be out today.
What?
Guarantee it.
That's a pretty big one, actually.
Yeah, it is a big one for you.
You thought I was out of nothing?
Yeah, I thought you were out of the 10th round.
Will it happen? I don't know.
It's going to eventually.
So why not now?
You know what?
That's all that Doug has to do.
Hey, everybody.
I'm Doug Bowser.
I did what Reggie could be.
I've seen you all living under a state of oppression for years now.
Mother 3 is here.
Virtual consoles back.
Now we're huge fans of his.
Yeah, exactly.
Andy.
The word combination of true 4K gaming
will be said no less than 25 times
during Microsoft's conference.
Just Microsoft.
Yeah, just Microsofts, yeah.
True 4K.
25 times.
Yeah, no way.
Because it's going to go along with not only the new games,
but the new Xbox,
Anaconda
What's it?
What are you doing?
I got a question.
Yeah, what's up?
Be said, be shown,
combination of the two.
Oh yeah,
like, can it show up?
Let's do a combo of the two.
Okay.
Let's do combo of the two.
But if it's said while being shown,
does that count as one or two?
That's one.
Okay.
Because they,
I feel so bad for whoever's going to like count these like points
going through this.
That's why it won't happen.
We live in the age of the meme
and everyone nitpicking you to death.
They remember Call of Duty,
Call of Duty.
Boots on the ground
Boots on the ground
Yeah exactly
Call of Dude you call it TV TV TV TV like they remember
That Xbox review right they're not going to do that
They're not going to they'll stay away from it
They'll make their point and get out
Get out
Right
A few left here
This one's kind of more obvious and I think
Less fun but I'm still going to roll with it
The Dragon Age
The next one we finally get the confirmation
We get a trailer during EA play
and these speeches.
And the team...
I think you don't understand
what EA play is, Frank.
I do understand what it is.
But I understand that it's like
a couple games and some...
Or, okay, maybe it's not during it.
Okay, maybe it's during Xbox.
Here's the part of the game
that I'm still not used to
that I am flubbing.
It's got to like go somewhere.
Yeah.
Like I'm not...
I just believe it's going to be...
It's going to happen.
So I believe it's going to be at E3.
I thought, yeah, for a second,
I just threw it at EA,
but maybe that means it's at Xbox or something
for whatever.
reason.
I'm just going to stick with it.
Next Dragon Age, they're going to tease that.
In fact, that's a great moment
for Microsoft to have.
And, you know, teams are working hard on
and it is planned for early, you know,
February, March, 2020.
Okay.
Wow, that's real early.
No, it's been a while.
Yeah.
It wouldn't have come out.
And he's puzzled face.
I mean, I know it's been a loss of the last one,
but that doesn't necessarily mean they started the one
immediately.
No, but the rumors were,
that they had to shift over to help the Andromeda team.
Once that was done, they'd been working on it.
And then there was the anthem team shifts, and we know that.
But I believe that that's sort of been what's going on it, by and where.
And so I stand by it.
It's time for in the same way that Fable, that it's time for Dragon Age again, and it'll be there.
We will see a new Mario Maker 2 art style.
It might not be for launch.
It might be DLC, but that space will be filled.
Yoshi Island
I doubt it
My bet to make this even more
Like Tim Getty's bullshit
Would be Super Mario Brothers 2
My reasoning for that
Is because we have the four art styles
The Mario 1, Mario 3
Mario 1, Mario 3
Mario 2
Mario 1, Mario 3
Mario World and new Super Mario Bros
And those are all interchangeable
in Mario Maker
But then there's the
I forgot what they call it, but like extra game modes
And right now it's only Super Mario 3D World
There's like a blank spot even
There's a blank spot next to it
But the 3D world plays totally
different. And I think the Mario 2
plays totally different. It plays like Mario 2.
Okay. Boom.
Drake.
I love that you wait for me to say it.
You look at me. I want you to pass
the baton, all right? This is the most serious
show we do. You know what I mean?
At the PC gaming
show, T.HQ
Nordic announces a new Kingdoms of Amalore game.
It was cinematic trailer. No foot, no foot.
The game's not that. Yeah. But hey, we have
we have, why do we buy all these IPs? So we
can slowly start doing things like this.
Bye-bye.
That's a good one.
Thank you.
I stand by that one.
I think I'm out,
but I'm just going to say that
Doug Bowser.
I'm Doug Bowser.
No, because this wouldn't make,
it just wouldn't fit.
What color shirts?
Doug Bowser are going to wear?
I wanted to say that they're going to be at perfect dark.
They're going to bring back perfect dark.
And Doug Bowser's wearing a
perfectly dark shirt.
What?
Horrible.
Yeah.
Horrible.
I've been doing any pretty predictions for years.
That's one of the worst ones I've ever heard.
And I predicted once there would be a Singstar mascot, like, microphone guy dancing out on stage.
A Singstar mascot.
Oh, Sing Star.
Got it, got it.
Brian.
I'm running low with the confidence ones right now, too.
But I did have one on the list that I was kind of toying around with.
And I hadn't quite refined it.
So bear with me.
But GameCube stuff finally coming to Switch will be a part of it.
And I don't know if that means that we'll get a galaxy wave wave race blue storm and something else.
But I believe that the era of GameCube will finally start truly making its research.
We're so far from that friend.
You think so?
You think so?
You don't have to go in chronological order.
The Switch is dying to get GameCube ports.
No, you see the Switch is dying.
True.
You know.
Dead in the water.
I wish.
I think it'll be a moment.
I wish.
I don't know.
And it's part of games pass.
No, I'm not.
I'm out of like hype ones.
Right?
But.
Should have saved for some bangers.
I know Greg's probably got some.
Fall Fancy 7 remake.
It will be confirmed, confirmed that it's episodic and we'll get the episode one release dates.
And I think it will be January next year.
And, you know, just to add more, we'll also see Kingdom Hearts 3 DLC.
Huh, okay
It's a nice little
I think that's
Safe
Good ones
Safe ones
Greg
I'm out here
I'm looking
I'm trying to come up
With something better
Can I go with mine real quick
Sure go from
This is your final one
I think
Final Fantasy
14 will kind of
Be quickly announced
Or switch online
Really
Just like a little quick one
Like a quick thing
It'll shock like the hardcore fans
But
People like us be like
Oh
Do you think that'll be at square?
or Nintendo?
I'll go with Nintendo.
Okay.
Yeah.
Not a whole lot of time
will be spent on it.
Last one, Greg.
I got some, I mean, like this,
I had in here,
Assassin's Creed,
or I'm sorry,
Animal Crossing looks like
the same old Animal Crossing,
but we all love Animal Crossing.
You know,
prepare to be in debt to Tom Nook in October.
I don't like that one.
I have here,
Division,
episode one,
DC Outskirts gets a trailer.
I think it's possible.
Ebisoft, but who cares?
That's not fun.
instead I'll do this
Microsoft
will buy another
first party studio as we have said
all of you've been too cowardly to name it though
wow
oh whoa
Microsoft is swinging straight
for shuhay Yoshita's face
and they're taking that game company
oh wow
that's what I was clicking on on mad here
trying to figure out because yeah remember that game company
last we heard from them they were working on sky
which is supposed to be an Apple thing
but we haven't heard about that game in
forever. Right? It was 2017.
That I think they started
talking about it. John Flower Journey.
That was when they announced the 10.
They announced the last name in games.
I think enough time is past. Maybe, I mean,
I don't even know if they're working on that game anymore. You know how
everything goes. Like what I'm looking on
that game company thing here. They have a blog for when they turn 12.
Here's the question. Did that game come out? May 15th,
20th. We just don't know. I don't think so.
But it is possible.
I think it did. Did it?
But I might just be making stuff like that.
No, I don't think it is, man.
Because the last news item they have about it is above the clouds.
New Sky Game details revealed November 16th, 2017.
Valve bought Campo Santo, right?
Yes.
Oh, fucking...
In the Valley of the Gods.
I'm just trying to think of something there.
I don't have any more, but I just want that game.
I just want that game to be shown.
Brand.
Oh, what about a new Play Dead game?
I mean, like, that'd be good.
That's a good one.
That's a good one.
Yeah.
I feel like timing's right for that too.
Brian?
Final one.
I should have used played in set of, Doug Bouser.
Yeah, I should have saved the Zelda one for last.
It would have made a nice, like, and like craziness.
Last tweet from that game company is on March.
No, that's not right.
Nope, not a right at all.
Sorry, I apologize.
The pin tweet is,
Skies in Multis Format, Social Adventure,
releasing first on, and this is March 7th,
releasing first on Apple Devices.
We're working towards,
global release. They are still working on.
They are still saying Apple. Again, I don't think it's
beyond the realm of possibility.
Like a lot of the other people, Microsoft
is bought, that they're buying them, and then
you finish the game, you know, go through your
contract and stuff, but we own you now.
Okay. It is possibility.
Oh, man.
Don't give me bullshit. Don't give
them bullshit. Yeah, I was gonna.
I'm glad you said that. It was going to be like an obvious
meandering, but of course that's true.
I don't have anything amazing,
but I'm going to go with, we are going
to see Elder Scrolls again at the Bethesda Conference.
What does that mean, though?
I don't think that's obvious.
I think that's real 50-50.
Yeah, it is 50-50.
I feel like it's less than that.
Well, we're supposed to get the space one first, right?
Starfield is first before.
Yeah.
Starfield is before.
Oh, before six.
Yeah.
Don't like getting your way because then it's still a bold prediction that we see more
over.
Wait, what is the last we've seen of Starfield and all that?
That was the same year.
That's right.
That was just like a teaser.
Is that supposed to come?
come first?
Yeah.
Now I have no confidence in the prediction anymore, but...
I move for a vote of no confidence in the chancellor.
Again, I see that you would see Starfield before it.
Whatever.
If I knew that, I probably would have said we're going to get a Starfield, you know,
trailer.
I'm pretty sure they said we're not getting anything, but...
It's not mine.
You can stick with it.
It's not mine.
You don't need to stick with it.
What, for Starfield?
You haven't locked it in yet, Frank.
I don't know enough.
To be fair, I don't know enough about that.
I remember seeing the teaser now, and I was like, oh, but that was like...
Those, those teasers.
These were back to back.
That was last year?
That's right.
Starfield like totally got it.
That was like their makeup of like,
hey, we're making fall out
into an online game.
We know a lot of people
to be pissed.
Don't worry, these games are coming.
And they specifically called out
as next gen experiences.
Okay.
Well, I was going to predict
that we will get just a better,
you know, Elder Scrolls.
Six trailer,
with a little bit more detail
on where the game is headed
and a little bit of an update.
But I've lost confidence.
I also don't know how confident I am
that Starfield is before
because I know Todd Howard was like,
You know, here's Starfield, but then, and the game, even later after that, like, he kind of made mention like that.
So I think we just, yeah, assumed it.
Like, read into those words, I don't know.
All right, I'm looking here, and I got a couple bullshit ones that I could put out, but I'm not.
I'm just going to, I'm going to throw, swing for the fences, do all the things with the balls, all right?
Sports.
M-L-B the show out.
Oh, yes.
All right.
I like this.
Wow.
I, shit.
I forgot.
That was the one I was searching for, Tim.
It has been a lot.
Bio-shock.
Wow.
That would be throwing balls.
You're shocking the world right now, dude.
I would have gone with that one as well had I remembered.
It's just been, you know, we're not sure where it is, but we know 2K, they own it.
It's important.
Microsoft.
I believe.
It has to be.
I want to believe, Tim, but I almost believe it's going to be one of these like bigger next-gen projects that they've identified.
Like, look, you want to go big, we really got to go big.
And so it's like 20-21 and we won't see it.
But I was going to out there for the funsies.
I was going to say something about DSX as well.
and then I was like yeah yeah no no not a chance good luck at that that's a bold prediction
if you want to make one Ken Levine's gonna come out during Microsoft and talk about his
next game a few years ago I talked about this little guy the PlayStation Vita I'm excited
good on my phone we're still making PlayStation Vita guys um then just a couple yeah
throw some I want yeah for you guys beyond good and evil too no yes it will make you're
definitely gonna see stuff yeah 100% seeing something absolutely they've done like
do we see this will be this is
Gameplay.
Yes.
Official gameplay.
I'm going.
Yes.
Didn't we see it last time?
In the trailer.
Sorry, do you mean a gameplay?
They showed stuff out like an engine.
This just.
No, no, they've showed us.
They've shown it to us.
Remember the development, it's not gameplay, but they've showed them playing in the world.
So we've seen engine play.
I'm saying gameplay.
I know.
Like, decided.
Yes.
But here's my question.
Are you asking if we'll see a gameplay demo, like them playing it?
Or if we will see a trailer with gameplay in it?
It doesn't matter.
Okay.
And yes, we will see gameplay and we'll see you.
I'm yes to that.
Gameplay demos aren't really Ubi's jam recently.
And when they are, I feel like people don't like it.
They play just dance on stage all the time.
Yeah, but they don't.
They kind of just dance on stage.
I know that was the joke.
They're playing in the game, Sam.
I'm just saying.
That's it.
It's all you got to do.
It's in your heart.
Listen to your heart.
You must be tuning your heart.
There you go.
Listen to your heart.
Prince of Persia.
God, I wish.
No.
Not more than anything.
Didn't even like that and Animusha, my two.
Like, like go of Oni Musha.
How about that?
How will we do that?
You said it yourself.
It sold kind of well.
Which is it sold shit.
No, it did not sell shit.
It did not sell shit.
I'm just saying how you sold it.
How you sold it.
It didn't sell crash bandicoot numbers.
I mean, a few things do.
That's not going for it.
That's why you got to remake it.
It'd be like if you walked in with a port of God of War, you'd be like, well, I'd still
be excited.
But you know, you'd be like, all right, God of War.
Yeah.
God of War.
You know, hell of War.
So they did that with only Musha?
Oh, man.
That could be cool.
It would be very cool.
What else?
Yeah, I guess that's it.
Nothing too crazy.
I like that.
Was there anything else like on folks list?
Oh, mine was just that we're going to just hear subscription something in everybody's everywhere.
I feel like we've dropped the ball.
All of us are not mentioning.
I wanted to.
That was the one.
Yeah.
But I mean, yeah, I believe that you'd be thing.
You be thing for sure.
I don't like, I don't like a clear like, oh yeah, that's probably happening.
Wait, but is that just a rumor?
Do we know that?
It's a rumor.
It's just a rumor.
But you...
It's a rumor.
Yeah, they leaked it on the store or whatever.
Somebody got a screenshot of it.
But it was kind of like Andy was saying with the like true 4K gaming.
You'll just hear subscription service, like a lot.
But between all the conferences.
There it.
You said you had some takes.
Yeah.
Give me them takes.
So let me know if any of these were things that you guys said because I had to leave the room for a couple minutes.
So new Batman Arkham game from WB Montreal gets up.
Beald.
Sequel to Origins and it's the
Court of Owl storyline.
I hope that's true, man.
God, I hope that's fucking true.
And the Arkham community is imploding in
on itself, needing something.
We got to get something.
Well, like, when you, because that's another one
that we've talked about in games daily, right?
Like, those rumors have been around for a while
and they're like, they're wearing, the guys wearing the mask
and this is happening, the shirt and all that.
I fucking hope so.
Rock Studies game will also be revealed,
will only be slightly Batman related
and will have a multiplayer aspect to it.
Okay.
Nintendo will reveal S&S and N64 games for Switch Online for this year.
No specific date, though.
Oh, man.
I just chose.
Final Fantasy 7 remake part one will get a February 2020 release month.
See, me and you?
I got January.
You got February.
I'm feeling the February.
I went January because Kingdom Arch 3 was January.
Yeah.
Yeah, but then wasn't Resident Evil 2 February?
That was January as well.
Oh, shit.
Okay.
And that's capital.
Well, I'm feeling the February.
Okay.
Doom Eternal will have an October 18th, 2019 release date.
Oh, fun.
T.HQ Nordic announces a Nickelodeon collection akin to rare replay with Battle for bikini.
What?
I thought you were going to say Dark Siders 4, which is way more likely.
With Battle for Bikini Bottom, break into rules, party blast, etc.
They have this partnership with Nickelodeon and they've done fucking shit with it.
They're not doing it.
All right, whatever.
Fable 4 gets announced, but like just a title screen or some shit.
Yeah, we cover.
Oh, okay.
Tim thinks it's gonna just be called fable.
Okay, okay.
Which I like, that's a nice twist.
But it's just gonna be a title screen or some shit.
I don't know.
I think more than that.
I'm with you on that, that I, potentially, but I am.
We don't know.
Metroid Prime Trilogy remastered announced for summer 2020.
Didn't put a date on it, but I cover me.
I didn't say, when did I say, I didn't say when.
That's far out for that.
Prime trilogy for sure.
This year.
I love what this happens.
Metrid Prime, baby.
Yeah.
Do you think that's too early?
Yeah, what's good?
I think it's too late.
I think that if they announced Prime Trilogy,
this year. That's crazy. August.
Six. The same date
of Animal Cross. Wow.
I think it's a switch day.
Nintendo's thing now. They're not going to tell you it too far ahead.
Harry Potter RPG will be
officially revealed. It'll be called something
akin to Hogwarts A History.
No year given for it though. Wait, who owns
that? Is that 8WB? Hogwarts a History.
It's like the kind of history
book in...
This is that RPG? Yeah. It's like that leech
from last year. It'll be officially revealed.
Okay.
Was that already last?
Yeah, that was last year.
Yeah, that makes that's a good one too.
That's a really good one, yeah.
I feel like it's weirdly going to be a good year for WB because that's the WB owns side.
Here's my thing and I like it and I love where your head's at, right?
I want Cordovol's to be real and I want Rock Settys to be real.
I feel like...
If one of them's, if they're both real, they can't both be at this, they can't be the same E3.
I think they could, I think they could because I think whatever Rock City is doing is going to be so different from what they've done before.
I think they can market it.
And I think those two games.
are going to be in different like years or like quarters or whatever so I think like they're going
to sell wb Montreal's game as this is a Batman Arkham game it's in the Arkham universe and then
rock city is going to be yes DC related but I think it's going to be like yeah it's like uh
justice league or something weird and it's kind of multiplayer focus like I think whatever they're
working on is going to be different enough cool Greg stay in the room because I have one more
prediction for you um that'll they can pull it off at the same
me three. The last prediction I have
this is for Cool Greg and myself
Simpsons Hidden Run remastered
will be announced and Cool Greg
will tear up a little bit. Where would it be announced?
I don't know. I don't know whether
fuck T. Like I don't know if it's announced like on a stage anywhere but it's just
gonna be announced. T.HQ Nordic is probably going to show up at places
I mean remember they have the Coliseum panel.
Simpsons has a Coliseum panel. So even if it wasn't I mean like that's a weird way to
do it but it's also a weird game but I mean
why wouldn't got a cult following. Why do we
not even a cult following right? I mean
It's cool great.
I love that.
I love that game back in.
It is not just Cool Great.
If they walked in and we're like, we have this thing.
If I was Microsoft, I'd put that on the stage.
It's going to be in a montage, Barrett, with Fusion Frenzy.
Oh, thank you.
And it's all coming out.
Those were my 10 predictions.
Those are good.
Another one that I just like, I don't really have a home for it.
I guess it would be the Nintendo Direct, but I think the Spiral Collection is coming to Switch.
But I guess it did they not?
It's not on Switch yet.
It's not on Switch yet.
Didn't they confirm it for Switch, though?
Oh, interesting.
That's a solid slam dog.
Well, that's it, ladies and gentlemen.
These are our E3 predictions.
What a fun little rousing game.
Let us know in the comments what your predictions are.
Yeah, I would love to see that.
Should be fun.
Until next time.
C.803, like, come watch all the stuff.
We're doing a bunch of stuff at E3.
Please watch it.
Cacao.
Yeah, that's the thing you missed from earlier.
Yeah.
It'll make sense when you watch the pre-show.
I'm sure it will.
Which is also doubling as the potion?
Is that what we'd like?
All right, cool.
So speak it up.
Ladies and gentlemen, we love you.
so much. Have a great three. We'll see you soon.
Bye. I hope my nose doesn't bleed again.
I hope so too, man.
