The sub goal is Silent Hill F. Silent Hill have a full play through. Oh, I mean, right? He's just threw it out there. He's a lot of there. I mean, I guess he's a lot of here. I guess he's, it's not long enough. I guess maybe it's not

too long, so maybe. I hear it's not that long. Have you played? Well, me and Roger are going to play it next Friday. Okay. Yeah, yeah. So we can we can like prejudge it for you if you want. Okay. And like you the length, let you know, kind of the vibes. I like that. Okay. I like that. Nick,

Hi, how are you? Hello, Michael. It's the games cast. It's three best friends taking over to them. Just hanging out. Just a vibe. They've given us the steering wheel and we're going to scram this car I like your haircut Nick. Thank you. Yeah, I got it done this weekend. I like the haircut. I like the sweater.

Nick's going with these crew neck sweaters with very small emblems on it. That's his new look. I like it. I've had him for a while. I'm actually moving away from them. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Wow. He's moving away. You already lost it. What I'm thinking about doing, Andy, and you tell me if it's

crazy, is anytime I go anywhere buying a very nice anirac. Yeah. And then coming back, so just to let everyone know where I was this weekend. Oh, okay. I'm not saying that as an example for anyone. Letting everyone know exactly what I did this weekend and how much money is. I want everyone to know where I went. Yeah, I'm my Stanford.

I'm on a college world tour. What is this type of, of? I would call this the baseball coach jacket. I love it. I love it. Where did you get this? At Stanford. I took a college world tour.

You know what I'm taking a college tour. Was it a football game or? No, they called. They wanted me to take a tour to see the campus. You were streaming yesterday. I don't think that's true. No, I took a nice drive on a lovely Sunday morning down to Stanford, took a walk around the campus, enjoyed a picnic over by Hell's Gate.

They got an awesome museum, and then they have the big statue, iron cast of Hell's Gate, I believe it's what it's called. That's fun. Yeah, nice little picnic. I like that area down there. It's really beautiful place. You've been down to Stanford? 35-year-old man tours college campuses is this Ken Jr.

They're asking if I want to come, you know? It reminds me of... They want my mind. They're like, we need to study this, because... something's really wrong. Did you watch, did you ever see that Vince Vaughn Owen Wilson movie where they were interns at Google?

I love that movie. The internship. That's what it reminds me. Anytime Micah does anything, that's what it reminds me. I like, but wasn't that one of those movies were similar to when you heard

for the first time they were making an Anchorman 2 and a Zoolanard 2 and you're like, oh my God, it's going to. You know, like, you want to relive. You mean bad? You want to relive the nostalgia of wedding crashers. Sure.

But like, well, like, you know, Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn were on a tear at that point, right? We had Drillbit Taylor out there. I don't think Vince Vaughn was in that. Well, no, I'm just saying they had a bunch of movies coming out. Oh, you mean they were a tear separately and then they came together. They were like the Brad Pitt, George Clooney of movie. They were just shooting them off at that.

Yeah, they really were. And they were all bad. Well, Drill Bit Taylor was terrible. Remember that because he was like a dude that lived in the bushes? And then he was like, I'll teach you kids how to fight. And the kids were like, you're creepy. How old is Drillbit Taylor? That's probably 20 years old at this point.

I'm going to guess 2005. that movie came out. 2008. Wow. Wow. Wow. I was close. You nailed that.

What about wedding crashes? Wedding Crashers is goaded. That movie is still fucking hilarious. That was the first one. I keep trying to relive that. Watch the internship. You might like it. You would like that.

It's actually not a bad movie. It's pretty charming. You ever seen Starsky and Hutch? Oh, oh, yes. Snoop Dog is Huggie Bear. That's a great one right there. Yeah. Fantastic.

What was the other one they had? The two of them? No, there was one more. Dukes of Hazard. they tried to remake. Well, that was Johnny Knoxville and, yeah, Sean Williams. I'm right there with you, Mike, because I, Starsky and Hutch and Dukes a Hazard, I would always mix up.

If they had, well, Starsky and Hatch was Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson. Yeah, they had the charger in that or whatever the car was in that. And then, of course, there's DeGenerally from, from, unfortunate movie. Duke's of Hazard could have been a fun one. In fact, it would have been better if it was Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn. Johnny Knoxville, no disrespect, is just much better at getting hit in the testicles by a than he is at acting. But I love the man.

Internship, 34% of rotten tomatoes. You know what's better than that? It's about 52. I would say it's a 52. Go in, you get, here's what you do, Andy. I'll tell you what, I'm going to do this for you tonight. I'm going to do this for you today. Mine wife.

Are you just going to do it on your own? No, no. Stick with me. This is a fun one. Whenever you want, you text me. I'm going to send you an extra crispy thin crust. Oh, my. Pepperoni pizza from Pizza Hut.

Oh, man. And I'm going to Venmo you. the $3.99 that it takes for you to rent the internship on the platform of your choice. Probably Prime Video. Yeah, probably because it's easier. It's not the best, but it's easy. It's like a start one. Yeah. And I want you to just watch it. Wow. Wow. Watch it and tell me what you think tomorrow.

So you're going to intern at Google, huh? Wow. Wow. They're like sales guys and they're like, oh, we can get an internship with Google that pays. And then everyone at Google's like, you guys are old and stupid. But then they fall in love with them. Yeah. It is because they're infectious because they actually know how to lead. unlike all these other kids who just don't you know they're so it's just it's wedding crash they're just like people fall in love with them because they're these two charming dudes listen that's just how it goes okay i like that the internships logo is still like the old style of google font like the old google logo where it was very serifed and it was very kind of you know now we had the internship now do you remember robert de nero he did the intern that's a great turn that's a great no we we double dipped on this we double dip i i love Well, he was just like the old, I mean, he's like... That movie is, like, here's how it starts. And this, if you've never seen that film,

we'll start talking about games in a second. This movie's like one of my guilty pleasure films. Because it's an old guy who's like, he's older. Yeah. He was a business guy. He was very successful. And he lost his wife. And after a few years of being retired with no one, he...

She passed away. Or maybe he... Actually, you know what? I've only seen it once. Maybe he lost her in a Walmart. And then he goes, I just want to be useful. and so he applies for this internship and he's actually really smart

and then she's running her company he like mentors her a little bit and they learn from each other very lovely Kevin is it Paula that hates her Ann Hathaway or do you hate her no I really like her Paula hates her

oh okay Ann Hathaway is perfect in roles like this where she gets to just play Anne Hathaway Devil Wears Prada Perfect in that movie This one You know they're making a sequel to that Devil Worse

Have you? No Oh, well, that's an all-timer. You tell me when you're ready. Exactly. I'm going to demo you $7 for the internship. The Delaware Spite is a phenomenal. That's a phenomenal movie.

You got to do that one. You just sending me multiple pizzas reminded me of over, you know, over last weekend, us being at, not this past one, the one prior, us being at Ben's birthday party. Which, where were you at, Mike? You know what? I was seated. I was busy.

I was taking a seat somewhere. Because I did, you know, Baird, I did tell me a story that he was like, you know, yeah, when are you going to go? When are you going to head there? And Mike was like, I didn't know what was happening. Yeah, I didn't know. And Baird was like, well, it's on the calendar. It's been mentioned in every meeting for the past month or so. It's a whole thing.

Yeah, it's a whole thing. It's only your boss. We have three different calendars, you know. Yeah. No, we have two. We have two is one. Yeah. But I looked at Greg and I said, Greg, I need you to do something for every future

Ben birthday party. Okay. One more thing to add to your kind of list of responsibilities, bring a football. And he said, I got one in my car with a pump. Smart ball. I'll go pump that football up. Brought out the football. And Nick said, why do you have a football?

And he said, oh, wait, I know why. This is, that's one of the footballs that, uh, because I was sending Greg a football every day. Remember, Greg hit my football because he got tired of my toxic, my toxic masculinity, but we played Sin 2 Nurtle. And I had to have the football. There's nothing that makes you more of a fucking. man that just takes the testosterone

from wherever it's produced in your body and shoots it right to your fucking brain then just slap on a football It'd be nice to get him a baseball on a mitt and just see him whip that right in the way. I had Nick go run a football route for me and he almost tore his ACL six times because of how that park is so

hot hole. A lot of gopher hole. Dude, so many gopher. To the way where if I had a child, I would legitimately be worried that a gopher was going to drag it into a hole. I call. But I hit that. Andy hit me. Just painted me.

Just painted me. But yeah, Nick was like, oh, yeah, I used to send Greg a football every day. I sent him one at first. Yeah, I did. I really did. It was funny as it played out exactly how I wanted it to. He hit the football. Joey was like, I was like, where's the football?

And Joey's like, I don't know. And I saw it. And then Joey would like let on that shoe. I think this is that work. Joey, correct me from wrong, but I'm pretty sure she was like, yeah, Greg hit the football because he got tired of you being all toxic with it. And I was like, okay, cool. She's like, are you going to take, I was like, no, I'll leave the football

We'll leave it up there. We'll leave it up there. Okay. Wait, yeah, where did he hide the football? He hit it on top of the TV and the conference. Just out of your reach. You had to get the chair to get it down. That's bullshit. Kevin, mute your mic.

Yeah. So what do I do? What did I do? Revenge. Is it a dish best served warm? No, Andy. Cold, and over the span of two weeks, I just started sending him footballs. And the first he goes, the first one, he goes,

Oh I thought it was my mom sending me the football Because you know that's a grandma shit to do Just sending Ben at football Yeah, grandma might misclick the Amazon One-by-one-click thing But then three days later When there was like five footballs

He realized it was Nick's wrath I love that Coming at him hard Really miss here at that birthday party though But man I'll tell you what I did he do it Do you tell you what I did I do with one? No Every time he sees a dad he's like

Do you want a football He goes in the back of him I love that Like you're selling footballs That's right calm Yeah yeah yeah Mini Cooper. Well, let's get on TAS because, of course, this is the kind of funny games cast.

Each and every weekday, we get together to talk about the biggest reviews, previews, and topics in the video game space live on YouTube and, of course, on Twitch and podcast services around the globe.

Me and Nick will send him a pizza every time he watches. I'll tell you what. I really miss the days of Shanghai nights and Shanghai noon. That's a great pull. Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson.

That's a Wild Wild West type era. That's the Wild West type era. These movies are way better than Wild Wild Wild West. Shanghai Nights is better Shanghai Nights and Shanghai Nune are way better than Wild Wild West Jim West Desperado No you don't want Nata

None of this I know you know the lyrics to the rap song Way better Way better That's crazy Because we thought there's no way That these movies could be Anywhere close to Rush Hour

And they weren't But they were a pause up You're gonna pull up on Twitch right now Get the poll up Pick one versus Wild Wild Wild West That's great That's the song and that's it I don't want to influence any of this poll.

I will tell you my opinion on these films after the poll. Okay, I like that. I like that. Of course, we are an 11-person small business all about live talk shows. Today, kind of funny games daily. It was about the PS6 and next Xbox due out. 2006, 2007. When are they coming out?

They talked all about that. After this is a very fun sponsored stream with Nvidia and Battlefield 6. So tune into the Gibroni Boys taking over Battlefield 6. Of course, if you remember, you get today's Gregway, thank you to our Patreon producers, Carl Jacobs, Omega Buster, and Delaney the Somme Twining. Today, we were brought to you by Shady Rays,

but we'll tell you all about that later. Let's jump into what is and forever will be. That topic of the show. Now, Andy is putting up a poll in the Twitch chat, so please put the votes in what movie are you picking? Because you only get one. You don't get to split the votes.

I mean, the Shanghai franchise. Oh, did they get two? There was two. I thought it was new. It was Shanghai noon and the Shanghai night. Oh, okay, okay. It was so successful at war into the second one.

Unlike the rush hour franchise that did three. Because that was how successful they were. Apparently they worked on a fourth one eventually as soon as Chris Tucker gets off his ass. I typed in Wobled West with a question mark. I don't know why. Chat, put your votes and we need to know it right off the rip of this podcast here. But today's topic of the show is all about Nick Scarpino. The boys are taking over your podcast, three best friends.

talking about kind of our game of the years and Nick's favorite game of the year, Dune Awakening. I mean, you would think a movie starring Will Smith, Kevin Klein. Kenneth Brauna and Salma Hyatt. Are we giving that much credit to Kevin Klein? Yeah, dude.

You see the movie Dave? He solved the world's problems by looking like the president. Was that the one where the president they thought he died? He died. Oh, he had an affair. He had like, he had like a stroke and like went into like a coma. And they were like, we can't let this go.

The boner coma is how we all want to go. Because when you're in the coma, the last thing you remember was the, you know, the boner. The sex and the boner. Yeah. So you're probably just in that moment forever, frozen, right?

But he was a lookalike of the president. He used to do a look like, he looked like, he did like a gig where he was like, he'd go to parties and like pretending to the president. And then they recruit him to be the president. And then he realizes that he has more power because he's the president.

But Sigourney Weaver realizes she's not him because she sees his peepee. Oh. And Squoony Weaver is the first lady. But then they fall. in love. I've been he runs for local government. I still don't think Kevin Klein has that juice.

I'm just saying for a movie with Will Smith, Kevin Clyde, Kenneth Braun, Asama Hayek, it should have been better than it was. I'm not going to tell you where I'm picking. Quick early poll coming in. Wild Wild Wild West with 24 votes. They get 25. The Shanghai Noon slash

nights, 103. Yeah. Wow. You got to watch these movies, Mike. I've seen the first one, Shanghai Noon. they were in the bathtubs they were fucking doing martial arts funny man it was good shit oh one wilson and jenn well first off this is no disrespect to owen wilson yeah he's got great chemistry with most people but jackie chan could have incredible chemistry and the fucking fig tree anyone yeah anyone except his daughter oh is he not going with the daughter oh wow what what happened just like it just

acts like she doesn't exist oh that's a bumer banded her wow yeah it's really rough wow it really clouded my view Jackie Jen. That sucks. I was like, what a lovable, awesome dude. I was like, oh,

no, I didn't want to know that. Why is that? Is she like, is she like, is she like, he just like, he just like whatever.

Oh, disown her for being gay. Oh, that sucks. Jackie Chan, really? Jackie Chan. Yeah.

Have we gotten an update since then? It's a while. I think it's been a while. Here's what I'll say. Here's what I'll say. Maybe he's open. For anyone. For anyone that voted for Shanghai new.

Oh shit. Looks like you fucked up. Yeah. You fucked up. While, We're talking about Mark Lawrence, though. I mean, let's say this. Let's put it this way.

Will Smith has never had a controversy, so he's totally fine. Yeah, he's fine. He's fine. Jesus Christ. Well, that poll's getting run away with, so I guess we don't like Wild Wild West here with this family, but we do appreciate Shanghai noon and Shanghai nights out there. Let's focus on some games. Let's talk about some games that we like.

Nick, let's talk about some games that you like because we came together here and we said, you know what, this game's cast is about Nick's game of the year. We don't get to check in with you in January when the whole team puts their votes in 15, I hear this year. Yes, we will all be nominating 15 of our top games because here's the thing, Mike. He's going to kick us right in the end. Here's the thing, Mike, you know, blueprints will not be in my top 10. That's crazy. But it'll probably be 13, which is good for people that want.

What if you played more of it? Would it go higher? No. Have you been to the anti-chamber and beyond? I've watched videos. Okay. And it was very impressed after I rolled credits. But here's the thing.

We're all putting together our collective top 10, Nick. Blueprints would not be in my top 10. So it won't even make the list. But if we all submit, when we all, not if we, when we all submit our top 15s, blueprints will be 13 or 14. That's extra points for blueprints. And doesn't bear it on blue prints to have more representation?

It could move it up the ranks. Thank you. Maybe we'll give Nick 15th. Maybe. Nick's got a lot of games. It's like ranked voting. Well, huh?

It's like ranked voting. Yeah, I'll vote. Yeah. That'll be fun. I should have the deciding vote, I think. 15 does seem fairly like.

You know what? You know what? You know what? Giving me the deciding vote. Just like the tiebreaker vote in this game of the year. It would be like that Kevin Costor movie where the whole, the presidential, like the whole presidential race comes out of one dude's vote.

Waterworld? Yeah. Oh. The post. No, we don't talk about the campaign enough with Will Farrell and. Or he. I told him.

ever remember that. Zach Alfenakis? Zach Galfanakis. Is that where he punched the baby? He punched the baby? I've never seen this movie. They're on two sides of the aisle. But then they come into the middle, they meet each other, they become best friends, you know what I mean?

It's a good movie. Yeah. It's one of those that was like, you know, if they put this out eight years prior, it might have like really, I might have been injured. Would have moved the needle. Yeah. When Zach Alfenacus was popular with the hangover and people still cared about Bullfarrell.

Nick Laisana. Let's talk about Game of the Earth. What's some of your game of the years? I mean, I want to hear from you guys what you're, what you're leaning towards so far. Because I haven't played as nearly as many games to you guys. And we just sitting here beforehand talking about it, you know,

I think you guys are kind of split on stuff. You played a lot of games this year. I feel like you and I've played a lot of games. I've put you through the ringer this year. I've played pretty much. We played baby steps. You were good at that. Played baby steps?

We had a great time playing. Remember when Mike fucked us on baby steps? I don't know. I'm lost. But he didn't, he didn't tell us at first. He did the dad thing Which was that he waited until there was so far gone

To the point where me and you look at each other And we're like we're never getting to Yosemite We're just never going to get to the park We're stopping in Modesto Yeah We're gonna hang out in Modesto for a while You really did Get your nice hamburger

Madesto would turn it around What a freaking Unbelievable Andy Nick Andy Andy? Let's see what else. He played baby steps. He played sniper elite resistance with me.

Yeah. That was a fun one. I love that game. We really got into that game. The problem with my gaming habits is that we play whatever game pops up. And I get the opportunity to play with you guys on stream for a second. And if it doesn't catch fire, I just never go back to it. And the only game that has caught fire for me, the only game that I'm still like 300 hours into is Dune, which is going to be my game of the year just by default of it's the game that I've played the most.

And it's the game that. that I will champion for everyone. And there's never been a better time to get into it than now. Right now. All the bugs are fixed. Get into Dune. The chapter two just came out. They launched a big DLC drop.

They really balanced the game like that. Did they really? Because I have chapter one written down. What's the LC two? I heard a big update real quick that if the shy hallood take it. You can get your vehicle back now. Yeah. Yeah.

Like shy will not. No, no. Yeah. You can get... I don't like that. I don't like... You play... Put it all on the line or nothing at all.

You can back up your vehicle with the vehicle. What just happened to you? His seat just drops. Might just max out the seat. Yeah, they did an update where people were complaining, obviously, so that their tier six ornithopters were getting janked by some bugs and stuff in the deep desert. And so now you can actually, you can use the vehicle backup tool to replace... You mean bugs and glitches? Bugs and glitches, but like, yeah.

And though they haven't added a bug. It hasn't turned into Starship 2. It hasn't. That's what you want. They need to. Try to find the same four-legged man. Yeah. Yeah.

Or four-limbed man. Two-arms, two legs. Just a humanoid. Yeah. Yeah. A human man. Yeah. It's really fun.

I'm trying to get Greg into it as well. I'm trying to get everyone into it. I think Gary and Gary's coming back, I think. Maybe Adam's going. Everyone always keeps talking about they're going to come back. This is the year of too many games, though. It's too many games. Well, every year's too many games.

I don't, I don't know. I know. I know we say that every year. Last year you had too many games. I think this year, more than anything, it's not that there's just too many games, there's too many really high quality games. This year is just like,

you could close your eyes and throw a rock and you will hit an eight or a nine out of ten. Where do you think, I'm going to throw some titles out. Okay. Where do you guys think these are going to lie on our lists? Which one do you think is going to be the top dog? Expedition 33.

Do you think that's going to be game of the year? I think that will win our game of the year. Our per, like the kind of funny list game of the year. Because I think it'll be the highest on most people's lists. It's definitely Tim's. I think Tim's mine. It's probably yours. I,

Blessing also really liked it. So did Barrett. Mike, what was your thought on this? I haven't played it. You think you get, I mean, you love the Final Fantasy's. You might like this. It's on my list to get to. see if I can make time.

You better hurry up. Currently playing Digimon, so, you know. How's that going? Do you see where my priorities lie? You play Digimon and Kingdom Come Delivering. King Come. Baby Steps. Battlefield 6.

Now, what if you and I devise a way to go back in time, time travel? Re-want. I get you to play Final Fantasy 16. We get that higher on our life. That would have been great. Liza P I'm missing. Oh. The L.C.

So unhappy with a blessing. he didn't play the LizaP DLC. He just fell off. He just, like, just wasn't the right time. Got to put that dog in you. Can't be afraid. I think Expation 33,

number three on the list this year. Number three. What beats that? The Silk Song beat that? Silk Song. Pretty high. A lot of people in there. What about Donkey Kong?

People like that. Like Donkey? They liked it. Didn't play it. I had a, you wouldn't let me play it. I'll tell you what. I may be,

betraying some confidences here okay but this weekend after the Eldon Ring concert me blessing Alana and Rahul went out to eat

at a hard rock cafe just the best and just the best place you could possibly go into an apple bees and Rahul said but worse Raul said somehow worse Raul said I swear to God if you all give I will never ever talk to y'all again

if you all give Donkey Kong Bananza game of the year. He said that game was way too long. I was just so bored of it by the end of it. It was just like dragged on and on and on. I wasn't even doing a bunch of extra shit. And then Blessing said, you know, sometimes

we hear about the Nintendo bump. If anybody else made this game, it'd be an eight, but if it's Nintendo, it's a nine. Because they only have three good games. Maybe betraying confidence, but Blessing did say, I gave it a 10 out of 10 And now that I look back

I don't like Was I in that And I suggested to him You may have been in that post-coital Nintendo like Yeah you were in that I love you that You know

That recency bias Nintendo came out Because when Nintendo Because when Nintendo gives you the code When you get the game When you get one code When you get one code And they act like

They always act like that friend That's like I don't know if I can get you To the party dude Yeah And they just say that And you're like You could definitely

Give me to the party There's no one in the party There's a lot of room in the party There's people in there But there's a lot of room In the party and then finally they come through last minute you're about to put your PJs on.

Blessing of the chances, Andy, watch what you say. Then they give you the code. You just feel so blessed that they care about you. That of course you're going to play. Of course it's going to give you a bump. I mean, you're happy. It makes you happy.

It makes you happy. As opposed to Dune, which you walk out of the street, they hit you with a code. I go to Starbucks. Here's a code for Dube. You want a dude for code? Give all your friends.

We want people to play this game. One day I'll get back the Donkey Kong Bonanza. But I think Donkey Kong Bonanza, if I were to predict right now where it would land on our game of the year, top five.

I think it'll be, yeah, top five easily. I think it'll be a three or a four. Okay. I mean, I like it a lot. It's high. There aren't enough games

that everybody played. I think this year is the most spread apart, which is why we're all submitting our top 15s. You know? Because what's... I like that it's 15, by the way.

I'm not sure how the math works on that. Well, I'll tell you how the math work. I've already done it. Okay, number one game, you get 20 points. Number one gets 20 gets 18 Wow

Number three gets 16 14 12 10 Now is this like a mayoral race Or we're pulling from a list of games That are pre-approved by someone Or is it just any game that came out Like if I did this could I just sandbag the shit out of it By putting baby steps and like garbage games like that on it

Hell yeah No I mean Hey baby steps is not A garbage game by any means I don't mean that I just mean like Could I come in and sandbagging It's not even like a slop game Like baby steps

is our co-worker Russ Frustick. That's his game of the year. Really? It's that in Silk Song for him. Wow. That are like really, really high. Someone should look into Russ, as all I'll say.

I like that he's got Baby Steps so high because I do. That's psychotic. That game fucking... I want to get to it. I hope I can get to it. That's like putting only up as your game of the year. No, but like it's not... Did I?

You know what I? Here's the thing. Here's the thing that you haven't experienced yet with with Baby Steps. We experienced it just in the chaos of us talking shit. you forgot you were on a stream with Giant Bomb at one point. There was a lot of things going on. Nick didn't have his headphones on.

He's yapping and so is Jeff Grubb and I'm like, Nick, stop talking. They're fucking talking. And Nick goes, oh, I forgot we were on a stream with them. It's hypnotic. But anyway, I'm really locked. I really focused. As you play through baby steps, like there's apparently, because I haven't played it,

but there's apparently really good commentary about just like maturing in life and, you know, not being a 40-year-old man-child. Sort of like, it's about growing and becoming better. I don't know how deep those commentaries go. I don't know how valid they are, but a lot of people seem to enjoy it. I'm sorry, at one point, wasn't there a donkey with a giant dick that was wiggling it in your face? Yeah.

Cool. Yeah. Deep level of commentary. It's like listening to me talk on a podcast. Yeah. Very deep. It's rotting people's brains. So baby steps might make our list with how, depending on how high it's on yours.

Mike? Yeah, mine will be very high. You know, maybe one through three window right now. For baby steps. For baby steps? Crazy. I don't think anyone will follow that up, unfortunately. So I don't know if baby steps will make our list because I think I'm the only one in this office that played it. Two pack of a year, man. Well, you know, sniper elite, dynasty warriors, warriors, abyss. Those are just like fall by the wayside, right?

Schedule one. Peak. repo. What about Yote? Yote will make it. I think so, because I'm really loving it. That's got the PlayStation bias. More than others? Just going to be top 10?

Well, I think it might be Rogers Goody. Really? Yeah. Roger loved it the most. Greg really liked it. Bless thought it was like good. Bless gave it an eight, which means he hates it. um interesting that's less ways they like we want to think no it's like no he gave it an eight he was like it's an awesome game and then it's like comments are like this fucking guy um but i'm really enjoying it so far i think that it is a lot cooler of a narrative with just this more straightforward revenge story of this woman's family was all murdered and now it's like kill bill style i'm going after the snake and the snake guy has a cool mask and now it's like now i'm going after the o'ne and the only has his own thing now i'm going after the The dragon and the something, and it's like, everybody's like, the Yote 6 are all these different villains with like different maps.

There's something called the Yote 6. Yeah. How could that not be? It's sick as fuck. That's the coolest thing I've ever heard of my life. It's sick as hell. I'd watch that film. That's the whole story of like not only, you know, this quest of revenge, but all these different characters and different villains.

And that fucking mountain in the middle of it all, dude, just fucking grounding you. Because you whip that horse and you ride across the fucking landscape. Beautiful. It's beautiful. God damn it. Combat's fun. It's hard. shit though but it's it's a good time.

We're chasing foxes around. Yeah. A little out cuckoo and I follow this little bird somewhere, yeah. You playing it? Yeah, I'm 10 plus hours in. Oh, nice. Oh yeah, yeah. I played it before the review and then I got taken off the review. Oh, okay. Here's what we should do for me. I should get a vote this year. But I should only pull from games that I've played

on stream. Of course. You play a lot of games on stream, Nick. Yeah, but I only play for two hours. Well, yeah, but then you fall in love with some games. So literally on my list of games, it'll just be the ones that I could remember that I played. and what was the swimming pool simulator one? Oh, man, dude. Waterpark Sim?

Water Park Sim. Me and Joey competing in Water Park Sim. I thought you been pools. It should be Mike Nick and Joey giving you the best Sim games of the year. We should make like a, that's like a smiley thing. But like that's a whole like, man, this is. We play a lot of Sims. And I'll tell you what, Mike, if you never played Water Park Sim, you're missing.

Oh my God. You're missing out. That's got to be a games cast. What, uh, did trading card sim come out this year? Was that last? even this year. I never played it. That feels like a February game.

Because that game was so fucking good and nobody will give it to love in the time. That came out, 2004. Ah, shit. That game rocked. That game is really, really good. Now they got 3D printer shop, Sim, where you make action figures. I would love that. That sounds fun.

Damn. I'm super into 3D printing after seeing Tron Ares. Did you hear about the one of, like, your dumpster diving mic to look for treasures? kind of like... Oh, my God. What's it called? I don't know that one. It's an upcoming one, but it's,

you're kind of in a dump looking for almost a... What's that show with the two dudes that everybody thought were like a gay couple? It ends up they weren't. Duck Dynasty? No, no, no. Called Dick Dynasty. No, what's it called?

You know who they are? They would go to the fucking... Storage Wars. Is it that one? I mean, that was one where they go. American Pickers. American Pickers. Property Brothers.

Here's one people won't give love to that I loved and adored. A game about digging a hole. Straight up, that game rocks. And that game will get no coverage, no love. A game about digging a hole. That's what the name of the game was. A game about digging a hole.

And that's what you do. Is that in your top 10? Oh, man, I would love to put it in the top 10. But I have to be more strategy. I want to play this game. I have to play the game of kind of funny. we have to put certain things in places. I can't just share to the people what great games.

But see, I feel like that's, that's, repo, go play with you. I feel like you absolutely can. I mean, that's the hardest thing with this. They laughed me out of the building. Yeah. You've done it every year since, though they laugh at the building.

And it hurt me deeply. I don't know. I mean, look, I mean, we obviously want to, like, give everything a fair shake. We want this to mean something. We want, you know, Barrett does a lot.

You guys put a lot of energy into making this, like, a real thing and trying to take this as seriously as possible. Having said that. I think you absolutely could just put the games in that just that resonated with you the most. They don't have to be the best games. If you loved them and they resonated and I mean that, why can't that be your game? Texas Chainsawmasker.

Well, to be fair, Mike just played that like two days prior. I will never let him live that. That was a reason. That game is walking rock, dude. Can you believe we're getting another ill-phonic-like game and they're making fucking Halloween? How exciting is that, bro? Holy shit. We got to go back to Predator.

Are the server still on for that? Predator rock. This is a game about digging a hole right. here. That's what it looked like. See, this is the exact reason why I still played Dune. There's no story left. I don't even care about the DLC that dropped. I just like to build shit.

And recently, what I've been doing is going out to the deep desert and treasure hunting. You scan areas of the deep desert and you'll see a little pink pop up and you just go dig and find shit. It's so relaxing. Let's get after more of this conversation. After a word from our sponsors.

That's fine. We'll be very close to it on stream. We'll be in the middle of the stream. Do you not want pizza? I'm going to order you pizza. You're going to take it home. We're going to watch the Devil Wars product. You have to do.

And the internship. Devil wears product. I know that's a great movie. I need to. But intern is very good. You ever seen Drill Bit Taylor? No, that's a fun movie. That's one I don't believe.

That's what I don't believe that you like it, but I don't get it. You don't get a good chuckle out of that one. Okay. I promise you on that one. Yeah, in the break. And Nick said, what do we got after this? We got the stream. He said, I'm going to order some Starbucks for all of us.

And then Mike said, what about pizza? Do we got a pizza? And I said, I can't eat until one. He said, that's fine. That's one hour from now. That is true. This podcast is going to go for another 30 minutes. That is very, very true.

We got a lot to talk about because you went to a concert without me. And I won't say I'm jealous. I won't say I'm upset about it. You know what I mean? I don't know why me and Nick weren't invited, seeing how we were the boys that rode with you. We rode through Eldon Ring with you, and then you go see a compliment. I want everyone to understand something. Yeah, exactly.

I want everyone to close their eyes and imagine this. Imagine a beautiful, white, majestic horse. Now, imagine Andy's sitting on that horse. Now, imagine Be sitting right in front of him and Mike behind him and making like a reverse cowgirl, not in the sexual waist. Just Oreo cookie on this horse. Exactly. I don't understand. I just assumed that when the Elders Ring concert came, we were going to do that again.

I thought we'd all go together. It's right. I thought we'd sit right until his lap and someone rides my back. We have the moments. Melania! I would have said that to a bunch of nights. Melania, my lady, you're a millennia, my lady, my lady. She's super fair.

Rodon. Rodon. He's running the horse. Whatever that's name was. That was his name. Wow. I studied, bro. It was a meaningful experience for me and Mike.

That's when we actually bonded as friends. You all would have found it very boring. For the majority of the back half of it, I thought Bless was like head nodding to it, but he was falling aside. What happened in the back half? They just got deep into the duffy of the bag It was a longer concert, yeah And how long is too long?

And so I just kept on I noticed in my peripheral vision Just like a lot of this I've been there, bless And I thought I thought he was like kind of head nodding But no he was just like slowly Falling asleep to most of it I did that over the weekend

I was at a green room Friday night It was the late show Friday night I maybe had there may be some beverages Were involved And maybe I was a little tired From last week We had a long one last week

It was a fun one last week I had to wake up super early for some stuff. And I get to the late show. And then they're like, you got to host the late show. I was like, fuck, all right. And I'm in the green room afterward. And you know comics kind of come to hang out. And they were talking about some benign shit.

And I just kind of put my feet up on the on the couch with the bourbon on my tummy. And one of my friends was like, Nick, I was like, what? Because I had like literally passed out. Once you get horizontal, it's over. You can't go horizontal. Don't ever get horizontal. You got to stay a vertical. You got to stay a vertical.

Joey come in here if you want Starbucks. Mike let me know that he wasn't happy with me not inviting. Tell us about this concert now. Say I've never been to a video game orchestra concerts. Are they playing the game at the same time? Are they showing video footage of the game? Or is just me staring at the orchestra and they're just playing for me? So this was called the Elden Ring Symphonic Adventure.

Okay. And honestly, it's a pretty cool way to just have somebody. experienced the video game without playing it. Oh. Because, like, they go in order. The game is very much played on screen in order of, like, somebody's not playing it,

but they did have really good gameplay accompaniment in the background, not just, like, what you would see, like, while you're playing the game with the UI and shit. Like, they had, they did a lot of good stuff that Vati Vidi does with his lore shit, where he has a team that uses, like, the free camera,

mod to, you know, get really cinematic shots of your character doing like slow-mo attack, similar to when you're like doing camera mode for me. Yes, when you're taking-national geographic. Taking candids of me. The, I thought they did an awesome job of like starting off the game of like, all right, that's the tarnished and you are making your way to like, you're making your way to Stormvale and the music's playing Stormvale and they're showing you different moments and the orchestra will get quiet for a moment because they know that.

that this NPC is going to talk on screen. And it's that guy at the beginning of Storm Valley, he's like, you may not want to go to the main gate. You know, when they shoot a bunch of arrows at you, so you sneak around. They got people talking to that. Well, like, they show off NPCs talking a lot of the time to kind of like help accompany the story.

And then, you know, and then the music hits, and then it cuts to you. And then it cuts that. Remember Nepeli Lou? And she's like, oh, Nafeli. You remember him Nafeli, right? He's like, ah, Nafeli. There's so many, oh, my God, so many MPCs in this whole playthrough.

Ah, Nefeli. and you walk. The archers that didn't have their legs working so they were shooting from the ground. They have that as well, yeah, dude, but you walk through the main gate and bam, it's fucking, uh,

dragon, thou or te true, whatever. Remember Goddrick the golden and he fucking like, they do the second phase cut where he cuts off his own arm, sticks his fucking hand in a dragon's neck. Yeah. Takes the head off.

They got the wolf man with his second face. Oh, dude, this is my thing. Oh, wait, Blythe, wait. Oh, the thing about the big wolf. Oh, you know what I mean? Maliketh?

Yes, they showed all of that. They do. They showed it off in a way that I couldn't help but think while watching all of the footage of your character going to this journey. Now they're going to Raya Likaria to take on the big wizard lady. Oh, yeah. And then they go to fucking Kalid to do the Redan Festival. And it's all the cool shots. And then it's, you know, Bly there.

And he's like, I'm Blythe, warrior, you know, whatever the fuck. And then they show you when you're summoning all your homies and you're running to. towards Radon. And then they showed like Alexander the jar guy, the big jar man being summoned. And then they show Patches being summoned. And they quickly showed Patches has left the arena or whatever. Everybody gets a good chuckle there. But throughout all of these moments, they are doing an awesome job of showing off the gameplay,

showing off the boss fight. The moment where that meteor comes back where Radon, that got Nick that one time. Okay, did it get Nick? Or were you guys like, Nick? Just stand there and look up. And I was like, what's going to happen here? And I just hear Mike start wheeze laughing before I could move. I was like, you guys suck.

A good moment, dude. You guys suck. But yeah, man. And they did an amazing thing of kind of show. They showed all the endings off. So they showed like not only the ending where the erd tree is just in fine. You're getting the madness ending, but they show the ending where you fucking ask Ronnie to marry you. Okay.

You know. But all of it was, it was awesome. A beautiful underground and the deer? Oh, dude. Oh, my God. Yes. there's a moment where like we hit the we hit the intermission

and Alana's like that's not it right and Raul was like yeah like they're not even going to do an encore and I was like no I think this is intermission because we still haven't fought Melania we haven't gone to any of the final bosses or whatever and then sure enough after we came back from the intermission your character kind of runs to a tunnel

starts going underground I was like oh fuck I totally forgot about Chiefer and what like an amazing moment that was and then the fucking galloping deer midair. But while watching it, the whole time I just kept on looking at all the footage,

tears of my eyes, getting chills, re-experiencing and just thinking a blushing snore over him. Yeah, blessed to do the head and nodding off. He got the gist. He played it, right?

But while watching it, I was just like, this is the best video game of all time. Like, there's just no question about it. It was such a magical experience. I didn't love the sound mixing, though. A lot of the percussion being played over the like PA or whatever.

whatever the scene they're using. Like, they weren't boomy enough. It was just a lot of like, but it wasn't like a bombast. Yeah. You know, I don't know, something about the way they were liking it. Where was it at?

The DOLB theater. The DUL interesting. Yeah. And I think maybe just where we were sitting, we were right underneath the speaker. So we were just made. Is that here or were you in L.A. for that? L.A.

Okay. Yeah. I've never been to that theater before. Oh, wait. No, you're talking about the Kodek? No, it's called the Dolby. The Dolby. Where's that at?

Hollywood, obviously. It's underneath the TCL Chinese theater as well. Okay, in that area. Okay. Yeah. So I was kind of bummed out by, I think a lot of it was just where we're city. Was it, is it designed to be a theater for screen, for like movies? Or is it designed to be an actual live concert?

It is a, they have like this section and they have like the upper section with all with the side. Okay. So it is legitimately. Yeah. Yeah. When you sit, when you watch a movie of the theater mic and you're way too far to the left so you get like all of that. audio. That's kind of what... Been there. I wasn't super stoked with the sound quality.

But overall, it was a great time. And again, I only invited blessing because he was in L.A. for Janet Garcia's wedding. They spring a little night rain in there? A little D.L. No, no night rain, no DLC. They sell T-shirts outside? No. With the tour dates on it?

No. They sold some refreshments. A lot of just like basic ass snacks. but they had two Eldon Ring-themed drinks. Oh, fun. They had the flask of cerulean tears, which is like a blue drink with like Kurosau. And I forgot what else they had, but it was delicious.

And they had the flask of crimson tears, and it was a super red-looking drink. And that was like a vodka-based drink. Did you say carousel, like blue carousel? Yeah, but he said. I've never heard. I've never heard anyone make it sound so sexy. No, I made it sound like me really.

No, no, no, no, no. I fucked up. I said it like the country, Kourasau. I made kerosan. And he said, and he said, Nick, I had some blue cuirassau. It's like, I've never, never. I got excited. Yeah, I made it.

I made it the, the, the Dutch Caribbean island is what I made. Dude, I said, here's a weird poll. Last night, I'm on a show Sunday at Cheapen Therapy. I catch a guy, doing some crowd work because I'm a lazy comedian. I don't want to write action material and crowdwork love. And this guy was from that country. Oh. Yeah.

I was like, where are you from? And he goes, and he said the name of that. And I was like, I'd. I have no idea where that is. I think there's a lot of baseball players from Kuros. And he goes, his, his wife was from, formerly German, but she's also from that country now. Andrew Jones with a U from Kurosah.

I'm like, where the fuck is that? I've never heard of this country. I don't believe it's real place. And another dude in the front row was like, oh, it's 40 miles off the coast of someone, so and so, so and so. It's like, shit, I'm dumb. Ozzy Albi is jerks and pro far. A lot of Braves.

Andrewsson Simmons. Oh, yeah, a lot of braves. Um, so yeah, it was a great experience. And again, I only invited Blessing because he happened to be in town. What is Tim doing here? Tim is walking in. I did walk in. I was, I'm a little behind.

So this might have already been addressed. Okay. I just want you to know the Dolby Theater. That's where we did Let's Play Live. That's where they do the Oscars. Yeah. So I said Kodak. He said, Dolby.

It is the same place. Yeah. It used to be the Kodak Theater. Oh. Yes. The Kodak Theater is now the Dolby Theater. Gotcha. That's why I was confused.

I was like, I think I know. We've been in here. It's like a 6,000. That's a beautiful theater. Yeah. That's where they do the Oscars. Now, average John writes in with a super chat. Thank you to average Sean.

He says there was merch, Andy, but it was down in the lobby and also pretty mid-merch. Oh. Damn. Anybody got a teacher? Down in the lobby. Yeah. Hmm. Okay.

I guess I don't even know where that was because I, like, I only saw the refreshment area, which is just the bar. But I would have loved out front to. to have seen a bunch of, yeah. So now let's put those logos up. Let's look forward. You've enjoyed yourself there. Yes. You celebrated out.

Went to Hard Rock Cafe. Give me two games from this year that you would go see an orchestra of. From this year. Oh, I mean, Expedition 33. And Silk Song. Here's what I really want to know. What's the T? How's where I'll do it?

What's the T? Rahul's great. I would love to. I would love to sit down with them. is mid-ass merch. Oh, that's a bummer. For the audio list, it's just a T-shirt that says Elder Ring Symphonic Adventure.

And then some, like, oh, those are, I thought there are posters. No, they're postcards. Bummer. That's a bummer. Rahul's great. We just had a, we had a great time. It was just a great little catch-up.

Us just, you know. Tell how much I like him in that. I did bring it up. What was it called? Death and other. details? Hulu. I brought up that, like,

I don't know where Nick said that you popped up in his show. And I think he was like, was it this show? And I was like, no, I don't know. But it didn't sound like death and other details.

I mean, he's in everything now. It's crazy. He has a really good career. He's like the Jack Quaid of actors. Yeah. I would say so. Me and Alon just talks a lot about Silk Song.

When we sat down at Hard Rock Cafe, we just kind of talked about gaming throughout the year, how stoked he is. to be the lead in Soros. Big deal, very cool. A lot of cool stuff. He looked great.

He looked great on the cover. It looks fantastic in it. And yeah, it was just, I don't know, it was just good, it was good food for the soul, you know. Nice, Sandy. Just hang out with people that you like. And again, you did kind of tell me, Mike,

I don't know, like, where was my invite? And I had to, I had to be honest with him, Nick. I was like, I just, there's enough stress that goes into going, going somewhere. Oh, you can't know, Mike, you're not going to I have a veto that right now. He said that to me. First off, no way you're showing up to that. Second off

logistically, forget it. Get real. No. Get real. Chaparone concert, I'll show up to. I think that's where Chris Anko was. Chaparone. Because I told him, I'm going to be in Hollywood and he said, sorry, I can't do it that weekend. Because I'm going to a concert. Do a Lepa?

I'll be there. Anything. Here's the thing, though. Here's kind of a hot take, I'll say. Yeah. While watching the Elder Ring concert, all I kept thinking was this would be better if it were a blood-borne concert. Wow. Because I don't think,

I think Elder Ring is so large that it doesn't have the amount of bangers that it should have. I think the bangers are too far and few between. Okay. Damn. Which is like, that's a hot take. I'm sorry.

Chris Hank in the chat. Andy couldn't take me hot to go. Damn, I'm sorry, Chris. It sucks. But anyway, yeah, the Bloodbourne concert would have been a lot of cool. See, they got to remaster that game because I think a lot of people have forgotten the bangers. Yeah.

You know what I mean? You bring that up and it's like, I couldn't tell you one song without replaying that now, right? There's nothing that. Yeah, no, no, from Bloodbore. Oh, got you. It's been so long that it's like, I don't remember any of the music in that game. Dude, I will tell you, though, man. The probably my favorite one was the godskin duo.

You remember these guys, Nick? There are these two dudes in big white suits. They wore, like, the skin of gods. They skinned them and, like, would wear their clothing. I remember. And it was like one big chubby dude with the guy. And then one big tall, skinny guy. Yeah.

That theme song kicks a lot of ass. And that was one of the cooler moments of the concert. And then at the very, very end, bringing back the... Like the main theme, but it's like the reprised version of it. Goose bumps, tears of my eyes. What a fucking video game, man. Let's tear through some super chats. Yeah.

Saul writes in and says, Love me some jabroney heavy episode. Can I get a Paul Dano from Nick? Paul Dano. Poor Paul Dano. What about you? Poor Paul Danes. He's got a great career. He doesn't know you're making fun of him. Yeah, he knows. He feels it.

There's a great horror comedy starring Vince Vaughn called Freaky. I don't know that one. I've seen it. Oh, yeah? I think that's the one where it's a body swap horror where a girl, there's a big serial killer out there, like a Jason Vorheist-style guy, and it's played by Vince Vaughn. and he body swaps with one of his victims. So, like, he's about to kill a young girl,

and then they somehow body swap, and so he's, like, the young girl. I think that's what it is. Radagon's fight was too short, completely agreed, average, John. Can we get a trail on that? Yeah, Kevin's going to bring it up. I've never seen, I've never heard of this one.

Are we going to get claimed? Yeah, probably. Well, we're not playing sound, right? Oh, it's Blumhouse, yeah. Yeah, maybe posit. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the girl from, Pokemon, Detective Pokemon. Detective Pikachu.

Super chat here from Arturo Tron Robo Bartender, who knows ball. Obviously, it's what he does. He's a bartender. He says, Andy, Kourasau, parentheses, triple sec, is named after the country where the Lahara Bitter oranges are from and that were first used to make the liquor. There you go. Okay, so it was. Yeah. You got it.

No, you nailed it. You just sound sexy. You just looked me in the eyes. But then I guess. And there's something tickled inside. But when you said Carousal, I was like, oh, that is a different thing. People who don't know, they call it Caraca, right? And they're like, okay, well, you mean Carousal?

It's like, I'm just fucking up. I have no idea. Are they not the same thing? Do we not just establish? They're the same thing? Yeah, they all they're saying. Like, Blue Curacao is. That's how you would say it if you were to be appropriate, right?

We're just dumb. Yeah, I think, okay. Put us how. Now I'm learning. I don't know. It's such a sexy spin out of it, but all right. I like it. I like to look into your soul.

I say the name of beverages that I don't like because it's too sugary. Toast writes in, I think this was meant for. Games Daily says if Xbox is a PC hybrid, can it play PlayStation games? Yeah, toast, I think if it has the Steam storefront, it's going to play PlayStation games, Tommy. Yeah. Gotta get ready. You're going to be able to play Spider-Man. Yeah, you can download.

Just freaking Spider-Man and Horizon. God of War? Mm-hmm. Brooklyn Rose is. But where's demon sold? Where's that at? Brooklyn Rose's writes in and says TCG Card Shop Sim is great. 224 hours in and just got the last achievement.

Lots of quality of life updates over the past year. Recommend returning. Wow. Gas station sim. Same thing. A whole lot of love on that one. Annabelle Cook says with a $5 superjad says, Andy, I saw your IG comment on DAF's post.

If it makes you feel better, I sat two rows behind her during the Elder Ring Symphony and still wasn't sure it was her. I like, I knew it was her. A famous streamer, 39 DAF, or just DAAPH. And I was like waiting to look. for Alana and Rahul and blessing in the line, because I had their tickets. And then I kind of like saw

somebody, I was like, is that DAF? I think that's that streamer DAF. But like, I just wasn't sure. And I'm, I feel stupid for not saying hi. Because I was like, oh shit, I love your shit. And I just didn't recognize you. I hate that. I met a girl. I met a TikTok creator in the

Vegas airport security line in front of me and Roger. And I looked right at her. And I said, oh my God, you make the niche T-tik T-toks. I love that. Niche tea. Yeah, if you haven't seen. This girl, she does, like, niche communities around the internet. She'll learn about the teas and then give it to you. So when Nick asks, like, what's the tea? She gives you the tea. Yeah, there was a, he's, I've never heard Mike use the word niche before. Yeah,

niche tea. So I didn't, I was like, he's clearly, that's not the word he's trying to think of it. I didn't want to call him out. I was like, clearly he's either saying that wrong or that's not the, but he's spot-outed. The niche tea. That's a great. Is that the name of her series? Uh-huh. Yeah, she's fantastic. So, Basically, if she would just pick, like, an obscure group like us and be like, oh, here's the T that's going on. Except we never have any drama here. Never drama, except for Andy Bigtime with us. Like, that should be covered.

Proof them wrong. Every day we come into work and we say, let's prove Andy wrong. Azar with a $20 super chat says, hello, I got married on Friday to the greatest person on the planet. Wanted to share some love to my favorite group of fools. Love you kind of like. Congratulations. Azar. Azar.

Got married. Congratulations, Big dog. Oh, it's cold. Yeah, we got iced. We like cold drinks here. I didn't know that. Yeah. I complain a lot about the air conditioning,

but then I drink nothing but ice beverages. Then I just stop complaining. We had a big discussion, a little inside baseball. We've had some discussions about the AC and like kind of balancing it out and stuff like that. Very positive and good discussions. I just keep my mouth shut.

My body doesn't work right. Stanis Thrax with a $5 super chat. Shut up. There's a guy named Stanis Thracx. Yeah. Is he a fucking Barathean? Probably. He says, here's the Modesto tax.

Thanks for shutting out my city. Team Shanghai Noon Death Stranding 2 Game of the Year Watch Vince Vaugh in Brawl In Cell Block 99 Nick you rule Thanks man

Your city's awesome I love that Shout out to Modesto Stan is covered all the bases Yeah he'd hit them all I'm gonna talk about Modesto They're top 10 I'm gonna give you my

Shanghai noon over Wild Wild Wild West I'd be real I threw some shade of Modesto there until they said I was cool I'm gonna go give some love You just made me love your city I'll tell you by playing to my ego Oh yeah, there we go.

Here's a Superjad from Jen's F.C. Lay it to us. $10 Super Chat. And she says, I was at the concert too. It was awesome, but I really wish they had more bass. 100% agree with Andy. Best game of all time. Dude, I wish they had more base too.

That's exactly what I kept feeling the whole time. That's so crazy. And then the snare would just stood out way more than it should have. I think it was just where we were sitting. But yeah, but then they had like a guy playing the nylon guitar. Like just accusa. They're like, d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-l.

I was like, dude, this is so badass. It's a hard balance. I've done a couple of those movies, like where you watch the movie and the symphony is happening. You just want to hit a little harder every single time. Yeah. That's unfortunate.

Can I give you all a treat really quick? Please do. Came to my attention last week. Finally, cuff bust. The cute little gummy bear escaping out a prison game. That's right. Releases next week or this week, October 15th.

Wow. Wow. Oh, wow. I'm very excited. Now, there's been some details coming out that I'm not sure. are real or not because it came from a TikTok, but they say it's kind of PVP.

You get split into different teams and the first team to escape wins, which I don't really love. I thought it was just like 20 jabroney screaming at each other trying to escape, but I am still very pumped up on cuff bust. I can't wait to play this game. There's also another co-op game

from the peak devs from AgoCrab. Is this cuff bust? Yeah, this is cuff bust. This is, you're just a bunch of little jelly, weird jelly characters. Yep, I love this. And you're trying to break out of jail. Just is awesome.

My homie's got a wait. He's from the wait yard. He's going to be awesome. He's in the yard. I can't wait to play this game. The game from the Peak devs, Mike. Okay. See you again.

Another one. Oh, yes. They said it to me. Greg said it to me. That is a shopping card. No, no, no, no. It's forklift certified. You got to be forklifts certified.

Right, right. They're all forklifts. But what's the game called? The game has like a funny name to a crash out crew. Peak was another one of those games I wish I had played more. I think we could have had more fun. We definitely should have played that. We can still play it.

We can still play it. Let's tell Andy, give us a Tuesday night. Andy, I'm going to order you a pizza. Yeah, there we go. We're going to watch the internship and the devil worst part at the same time and play some peak. How do you feel about that? Sure. Watch along.

That sounds good. What a fun night. A little more peak. I would like that together. To round out this episode and get us over to that sponsored stream, Nick, what is the game of the year? For me, the game of the year is going to be Dune, Dune Awakening. I'm playing the game. People are coming back.

There's never been a better time to get into doing them right now. If you guys want to come play, my server is so empty. It's so unbelievably empty. It was. Until, here's the thing. I was good to tell everyone what server I was on. But then something happened last night. I log in.

Yeah. Because I'm thinking to myself, that'd be really fun, right? If everyone wants to play, you come, take a look at my place. If your server is empty, maybe encourage people to come to your server. But then this is what happened, Mike. I log in. first off I hit up Adam and I was like Adam your fucking ornithopters are cooked.

You got to come back to this game and at least redo your power because your pent of shields are down. Your ornithopers are cooked. Adam's too busy to do another shit doesn't care. Gary's still doing his stuff but he's weird. I log in and there's a new guy in our neighborhood. Oh.

A basic ass, basic ass fucking block house building with Stone 1.0. He's treating your neighborhood as a pit stop. Remember when that guy built in front of Andy's house as well? Like Andy built behind him but he was like low-key. and they just built a giant He built the Avengers tower

And motherfucker built the Freedom Tower I was like dude Like your shit looks ugly I'm out of here Yeah This guy built In just an odd cockeyed way To the point where it looks like

It's my pool house And I don't like it And it was to the point Where I legitimately thought about making a thong He built sort of an open sand And I thought to myself I might build a thump Like a thumper

And put it over by him And just see if the worm Will come to swallow This house up It's gross You should be doing that to people But then I looked around and I was like, maybe I would just make friends

of this guy and then my brain goes like this Maybe I'll just start leaving him shit Because I had so much Footballs I have so no I was gonna leave like ornithop I was just gonna like My first thought process was like Because he's right on the cusp

Of where my plot of land is I could legitimately make a safe And keep it open And then if you walked it And just see if you start taking show You should do that That'd be a fun little experiment I might like message me

Like hey man I'm just gonna leave you some shit It's like when I made friends With box fart 69, you know what I mean? Like, that's a friendship that will forever be. Who was that kid that we made friends with in, in college duty? Nelson. Yeah. He loved you.

He was a lot of fun. You got to turn on voice, chat. I really don't want to do it. I really don't want to do it. It sounds like it's always fun until it ruins the stream. How you just say that guy's an asshole, my bad. Yeah, you know what? Let's have some fun. That new Game of Thrones trailer,

did y'all see this yet? I haven't seen it yet. Oh, a night of the Seven King King. Yeah. You haven't watched it yet, Nick? No. We're back, bro. We're fucking back.

Is it another, is it another prequel that happens 10,000 years in the past? It's another guy with a small child and he's got to cross the countryside. You got to get over this prequel shit. It's just so boring. It's just so boring. Where did you want them to go? They got to do a prequel.

They don't. They could make just more shows that happened after the show. No, we like Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones. You know, we like Game of Thrones. We want to see more Game of Thrones. We don't want to see. It's not like real history where you know that like, oh, we won World War II.

Like, you don't know. So we did? Let's get out of here. Thank you all so much for tuning in. Of course, if you were watching live on Twitch, you don't got to go anywhere.
