Yo, what's up? Welcome to the Kind of Funny Games cast for Friday, October 3rd, 2025. I want your host, Blessing at ELAJ Jr. joining me is the Master of Hype Snowback Mike. What up, Bless. What up? How's it going, Mike? You got a jamba juice. You got a jamba juice. Whoa, look at this guy. Pretty delicious.

A different type of sugar and flavor. I like a low hot pineapple is my favorite. Oh. Sometimes I'll go a little strawberry banana on them, maybe a peach passion. I feel like strawberry banana very overdone in this, in the, in the same thing. the smoothie world. It's the go-to smoothie. It's the PBMJ.

You can't go wrong with it. But I like, I hear the word pineapple. I get excited. Dude, I love pineapple. You ever been to Fogo de Chow and got like the roasted pineapple?

Fogo to Chow? No. Fogo to Chow. No, and I haven't seen a Fogo to Chow since I lived in Austin. He went to Fogo to Chow last week. Yeah, during MagicCon, went to Fogo to Chow here.

Which is kind of, that's why I was bad, actually. He wouldn't go. We were, so, there's one here? Yeah, there's a Fogo to Chow. We went for Mron's bachelor program. There's that, and there's an Espitis, which is another Brazilian steakhouse.

But, like, my friend, so I magic on my friends were like, yo, you know, oh, we've been starving. We skipped lunch because we're locked in on playing the ticketed magic events. And so we're like, all right, where do we want to go for food? And I was like, okay, let's go to like somewhere Atlanta. Let's get something that's like, you know, a local, really good establishment. And my friends were like, let's go to Fogo to Chow. And I was like, we got Foguioch out at home. And in fact, I was like, Fogo to Show a month ago for my birthday.

I don't know if I want to run back Fogo to Chow. But you can run back Fogo de Chow. I didn't fight hard enough. And so we went to Fogo de Chow. And let me tell you, I was happy with the Fogo de Chow. I forgot that Fogo de Chow was really, really good. So yeah, had the roasted pineapple, had the cheese where they put the honey on it, had the Parmesan pork. And like, oh, God.

Parmesan, I think Parmesan steak. It was Parmesan meat. Get me all worked up right now. Oh, dude. You're doing too much to me right now. Man, let's all go to Fogu de Chow. I didn't know there was one here. I'm so down.

Mike next time you get chama juice I need you to hit me up okay I'm adding me to the order are you a white gummy bear type of guy what you go to order? They got gummy bear yeah you haven't heard the white gummy bear flavors Are they like are they just not Trying to do healthy stuff

Really? No there's a line Yeah Sometimes you're a chocolate menu I'll take the cotton candy And bubble gum I don't know I like to explore the menu I'm a menu explorer

I like that Yeah At you know at Jombie juice you should menu explore. Yeah. To try all the smoothies. Because they got like random names for things. Get a little vitamin C boost. I was going to say I usually get the vitamin C boost. You ever get the, you ever get the grass? The wheat grass? I fuck heavy with the grass.

No. There was a time where I was buying two grass shots a day. Okay. Oh, the little bottle shots. No, no. Yeah, well no, but like he puts it in a shot glass because I was going there. Okay. He was taking the grass, pressing it through, and then I was chugging it right there on the spot. Because I like to the pressed shots.

The press shots. Like they sell a little tiny little baby bottle and it'll be like one of them is called I don't know reawaken or some bullshit and it's got like the craziest flavor profile

it stings your throat it's like cayenne pepper and lemon and all this sort of stuff you take that it's like oh my gosh and then you feel like a new person I love that shit and you're also like $8 you know poorer because they're very expensive

I like places that pretend to be healthy but really like they just aren't good for you Because I'm pretty sure Jamba juice is one of those Where you order this thing being like, oh, vitamin C, that sounds like it's good. It's just all sugar. Yeah. It's the best, right? Yeah, Sphinx is over here in the chat talking about all the different immunity blends you can put in.

Yeah. The vitamin C, the protein. I'm so glad the Sphinx brought that up. Like, you're so right. We should dive deeper into the menu. Yes. Of Jamba Juice. That could be an episode.

Let's do it. But for you here, for now, we don't talk about Jomba. We talk about video games.

Life. Thank you to our Patreon producers, Carl Jacobs, Omega Buster, and Delaney the Psalm Twining. Today we're brought to you by Kind of Funny Games Daily episode 2000 and our new merch, but we'll tell you about that later. For now, let's start with topic of the show. We finally fix 2019. No, no, no, not the COVID. We're fixing game of the year 2019.

Andy, this is something that me and you, I feel like I've been talking about for a while. For the longest time. What's up with 2019? 2019 was your first year kind of funny. 2020 was my first year kind of funny. But 20, why were you on the show? podcast then. Well, because we do Game of the Year in January.

That makes a lot of sense. I it was your first year, so it was your first time voting. My first time voting. As an official member of kind of funny games cast. It's also I don't know when I join permanently as a games cast sort of, you know,

co-host or whatever you want to call it, but like I certainly didn't have a vote even though I'd be gaming. You do be gaming. There's a lot of gaming happening. Barry be gaming. Barry, did you have a vote? No, my first year voting was the year that we like really opened it up in 2021. So that was the first year I started voting. Yeah.

Because yeah, before that it was just the Gamescast votes, which that year for 2019 was Tim, bless, Fran, Imron, and Greg. It's one of those years that I've always looked back at with just a violent disdain. Yeah. For our ordering of games. And you said a special word because I see Jedi fall in order at number one. Yeah. And I go.

It's a good game. Tim Gettys, that's a good game. Yeah. Nothing wrong with that one, Tim. It's a good one. Just like Metroid Dredd. Two good games. Two good games.

You keep using that good word. What is your shit with Metroid Dredd? They're good games. They're good games. There's another wrong one. Metroid Dread is a great game. Are they great? I mean, they're, you know.

There's nothing. Nothing wrong with them. Yeah. You know, they're like, he's not like me during the Ghost of Yotey review. These are good video games, right? But we can go better. there were other offerings that year

and I look at that year and I'm like you know, especially now since we have reawakened which is the name of the pressed shot juice that I'd take. I don't even think that's what it's called. But we've reawakened as gamers. We have Mike on the crew now who brings in a totally different taste and I feel like

even me in 2019 to now completely different taste in games, evolved taste which is honestly same for me. 2019 was such an interesting year because every, since 2019 I have periodically played games, like late, that came out in 2019 and go, wow, this is one of the best things I've ever played. Like, you know, pretty consistently, even this year, I played a game that came out in 2019 Outer Wilds and was like, that was this year? Yeah.

You played that? I played that in like February. Yeah. That's true. That's true. And I was like, damn, that was a transformative experience right there. And so, like, I look back at 2019. I look back at my list and I'm like, my list is invalid now.

And I look at the kind of funny list, which we'll get into a second. And I'm like, oh man, let me tell you, this company has grown. Right. I think that's the, I think that's the thing to talk about is like, you know, DEI. You know, they brought in us. They pulled the DEI lover. They brought in me, Andy and Mike.

And that brings in different life experiences. Yeah. You were there at the vote back then. Exactly. But we brought it in Mike. We pulled the DIY lever and we brought in Mike. That's the important. You know what I mean?

Mike really brings in the diversity here. And at that time, you know, the crew was the crew. It was Tim Gettys, Greg Miller, Imran Khan, and Fran Mirabella the 3rd. And they were the voters of the Games cast at that time, the permanent crew at the time. So, you know, I would say the variety coming from Imran's side was probably the deepest in terms of, you know, throwing in random games into honorable mentions and bringing up titles. You're like, oh, shit, that's right. That was that year that video game came out.

But on the flip side, I feel like a very predictable kind of. funny list at the time. But like, I look at this list. So let's shake things up. And also just at the time, it was naturally smaller voting pool as right. Yeah. And it was a top fiver as well, right? Well, that's an interesting one.

Bless should I break it down now? Just like how it works back then. Break it down. And so I think I helped with Kind of Funnies game of the year 2018 as well, because I started January 2019. And then I think we did it the same year for Game of the Year. 2019 is everybody on the games cast would give me their top five games of the year and then I would tabulate all of that and put it into a list. So the top 10 or whatever you call it, the game of the

year list for that year for 2019 is kind of a weird one because it was, that was less of the focus of game of the year back then. It was more so like let's go round by round and just talk about our top five games of the year. And then we had like at this fun weird little. list at the end of it, right? And so there's like a bunch of ties. There's not even like officially like 10 like slots, like slots on that list. Like it was very like we weren't really thinking about it in that way in terms of like a top 10 list officially, right? So I don't think we really started really doing that until 2020. And so yeah, they would give me their top five and it's a very interesting amalgamation of games. I want to read this.

Also, Chad is saying that there's some background noise, I think, on your microphone, Barrett. Yeah, that's the AC unit that won't shut the fuck up. Yeah, Kevin actually warned us about that. Yeah, so there's an AC unit in the control room that's loud. That's going to be fixed at some point. It's trying to keep very nice and cool. Yeah. To read through the 2019 top nine, that kind of funny had at the time.

At number nine, we had Link's Awakening and Catana Zero. At number eight, you got Gears 5. At number 7, Delvum May Cry 5, and Life is Strange 2. At number six, Fire emblem, three houses. At number five, Borderlands 3,

Death Stranding, and Apex Legends. At number four, Sekiro. At number three, Resident Evil 2 remake. At number two, Control.

And at number one, Star Wars, Jedi, Fallen Order. That was kind of funny's game with the year 2019 list. How do you guys feel about that?

Mike? It sounds about kind of funny in 2019 for sure. Yeah. It's what I would expect. Yeah. I, you know, we also did, the scoring will always kind of be the way we do things that kind of funny.

Where if there's a, if there's a tie, we don't do the, you know, there's two, six places in the one eighth. We just kind of like, we do it the way we do it. So, you know. We just like to celebrate more games. Yeah, number nine wasn't even an official number nine. It was just there was one vote for Katana Zero and one vote for, I forgot what else was that number nine.

Link's Awakening. Yeah, Link's Awakening. So, yeah, a different way of doing things. And then, you know, this year will also be different in terms of how we're doing the voting. Don't do that. So, you know, yeah. You ready to announce it now? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, we're doing the top 15. No, no, no, it's still a collective top 10. But we all give our top 15 games. And then, you know, because, you know, what if you have something at two that you really, really want some points for blessing? You can give me a top. Yeah, yeah. And what if I have that. number 14. Don't you want my

points at 14? So 1 through 5 would get 20, 18, 16, 14, 12. And then the rest of them would get 10 through 1. You can give me 15 games. I'll only mark the top 10 though. That's fine. That's fine. Yeah, but like the points, you know, everybody is giving 15 games and we all have

our different points. Wow. Yeah, because there's just too many games this year. Yeah. There's a lot of games this year. Yeah. So just like Greg Miller's reviewing Pokemon Z to A, you'll produce the entire game of the year. I'll do it. I'll fucking do it.

Don't dare me. I'll do it. I'll do it. I got a super chat question for those watching and listening live. What are your picks for game with year 2019 and why as we get into this?

So making our top 10, I figured we can have this be a free flowing conversation. Didn't do votes. I want to see if me, Andy, Mike, and Beard on the Once and 2s can come together

and agree on what the 2019 game of the year top 10. looks like. I love this. Where do we start here? I mean, do we want to start at the bottom of the top 10? I mean, I think we just start naming like,

I think we start at the top. Let's start off with the big three. Is there a big three? Maybe the big five. There's a strong lineup here. There's a strong line up here. There's like, there's like five titles here that are making the list no matter what.

You're absolutely right about that. Well, real quick, I do want to say that I would love to, I'm excited to re-ranked 2019. in four years when I finally play Disco Elysium. Wait, no way, Disco Elysium was 2019? That's on there. Shit.

Yeah. That changes everything. That really throws a lot of... I forgot that was 2019. Big old wrench, yeah. Okay. I'm starting off with Disco Elysium. Wow.

I'm not saying it's my number one. It's definitely top... Top five, I'll say. Okay. I think Disco Elysium belongs on the list. I'm just going to write that down. We'll come back around to a later. I wouldn't disagree.

just base off everybody's opinions. Like, I give it a five through ten spot. Yeah. Because I haven't played it. Oh. And so like it's not mine. Of course.

But like everybody's talking about it. That's why it gets a five through ten spots. It's like that's an honorable mention from Snowbike Mike for other people loving it. But it's not on mine. I also am looking at it through, I think a little bit of roast in it because I played the like definitive edition, like, whenever they added voice acting is what I played this ballesium, which definitely kind of like added to the experience for me. And so for going off of the raw 20.

19 Disco Elysium version that maybe that changes things, but we can get into that. My kid is with you, I mean, he just with your number one. What do you think are in the top five? Let me, let me give you a couple of big five. Let's hear it. Let's hear it.

In the summer of 2019, EA hosted EA play. Take me back. And a week later, a bunch of streamers went down and they played a game that no one knew about. Summer. And then two days later, brother, it was February.

Apex Legends dropped and changed the motherfucking glow, well. It did. It changed it. Woo! Apex Legends. It was an early summer. It was a lot of people's opinions,

summer starts in February. Not my opinion. I'll tell you, a lot of people got the calendar. Can I tell you? Apex Legends was my number one that year. Like in 2019, Apex Legends was my number one. I don't think that's too weird.

I don't think it's crazy. I have it as my number one. Wow. I made a top 10. And I put Apex Legends as number one. I like that. I think Apex Legends is a top fiver of 2019 for us. Apex Legends was,

I think without a doubt, my number one played game that year. Damn. You know, I had... On my PS4, you know, adding so many friends destroyed my game. And it was still so high up there

where my game would crash every two matches. I would have to restart the game all the time. But it was so formative and so new and fresh. And I always think like, you know, Nintendo's fucking patenting all these, like, you know, come on catching. I was like, man,

if I would go, if I were them and I could go back in time, I'd patent the ping system, the contextual ping system. I need ammo for a Mozambique. I need ammo for an R99 or whatever, you know. You would like ping an item.

And yeah, like Lifeline is saying an entire paragraph about the context of like, yo, I need this ammo right now because there's two people over there and they're running at me and I got three health and like four ammo right now.

And so if you can get me that, like the pink system was so well done. and so expansive. Almost made voice chat not needed. Legitimately. Yeah. Insane. It's super easy to communicate with people.

I definitely played that game so much. PS4, PS4 Pro. Shout out to Tucker and Bushy, who were my squad. The respawn beacons. We had like, oh my gosh, just so many amazing games, so many nights. Oh, the slide, the movement. The world design of, or the map design of Apex Legends, at launch especially, was so fucking good. But Kings Canyon, you know, you look down, I forget the names of the areas now,

but like whether it is like the big skeleton of like whatever creature or like you look over there. Boneyard. Boneyard or like industrial. You know, like, I think that was such a memorable and iconic map that they have had at launch. And I remember my first time playing that game, it almost felt like I was exploring an open world. You know what I mean? Like Battle Royale maps, I think oftentimes can feel like, okay, this is just a gigantic multiplayer map. There's something about Apex Legends at launch where I would uncover like another.

area and I might as well have had like, I think they had this in the game, right? The title of the area pop up as you enter, like you're exploring an open world video game. Like I think they really nailed that shit. Mozambique, yeah. And the cast of characters are so good too. Man. Give us a top five, Randy.

A top fiver for me. I mean, it's my top oneer. The Outer Wild. Sorry, the Outer Wilds. We got to write that down. You put the V. Outer Wilds was one of those games that I didn't play in 2019.

I think I played it during the pandemic, 2020, 2020, 2021 around there. And it was one of those transformative type of, you know, really change what you think games can be and how games can be designed

and how imaginative they can be and how they could just kind of how they can make you feel without direct cutscenes telling you why this character is sad or why. this character is crying or why, you know, it's, you know,

when I think of getting emotional in games, it's always usually watching a cutscene. I'm usually watching, I'm usually performing what you do in a game as you would perform while you're watching a movie. You are absorbing information. You are absorbing with your eyes and ears, what's happening in this scene,

and that makes you feel a certain way. Outer Wild just totally sort of flips all of that on its head, and I was so blown away by the physics and the puzzles and the way the science worked in this game, it always felt much larger than what it really was. And it was just such a special experience to see that. And I think it's also kind of several years after Interstellar comes out, and that blew my mind.

And I'm like, oh, my God, this is the interstellar of games. Like, when I left the Interstellar movie theater thinking, like, fuck, like all of this just, this whole. I feel so everything feels so inconsequential. Something about the Outer Wild Game made me feel in ways where I, like, it's

every emotion at once kind of all hitting me and I'm like grateful to exist on this tiny blue dot in a mass of everything but it's also taken away relationships and being okay with the inevitability of death.

It's like, oh my gosh, it just it is one of those experiences is that needs to be experienced by everybody. And we're listening to the podcast, and on the way in, I was listening a bit back to the 2019 game of the year. And hearing Greg say how he dropped off of it pretty quickly, I feel like he would really, really fuck with it if he went back. Thinking back to it, that is such a great game.

Doing all the investigative. I think it would really hit him in a different way now. Yeah. Having finally played throughout our wild, in full for the first time this year, I was in the Greg situation before. I had tried Outer Wilds legitimately like six or seven times, and I'll drop off each time.

But I'll always go back because the things people would say about Outer Wilds of why it hit it for them, why it's special, whatever, resonate with what I like out of video games. And so every time I dropped off, I'll come back and I'm like, all right, I'm going to try it again because I got to know. I got to understand. I'm going to force myself to beat this video game, right? And, you know, this last time of playing it,

I finally hit that stride about halfway through where they started to understand how to play the video game and how to get the most out of it. And to echo the points that you're making, Andy, right? It is such a masterclass in, I think, evoking emotion and strong feeling through not just story, right? It does that through its story as well, but it does it also through mechanics. And it does it also through its systems and its music and it's, you know, reveals and its exploration. Every single thing in Outer Wild kind of works together to create something that can, one, only exist as a video game.

but then also is something that represents what's special about video games you know what I mean like it kind of gives me the belief of damn like I can only

you can only experience like the emotions of this yeah through this medium it is such a good fucking game I also just really I've said it often on different games cast but my

some of my favorite feelings in video games are feeling the authorship of the developer as I'm going through it and going like oh like it's to try to put yourself in their headspace of how they are kind of without being too obvious

doing the player like in the way they're designing stuff in hopes that you discover things in certain ways yeah and also feeling like god damn you are smart whoever you are on the other side of this screen who made this you like this is some of the smartest shit and then you figure out some polls and you go what that's how this connects that's some of those genius shit i've ever experienced so i think talking about my number one for this list right i'm glad you've mentioned to outer wilds because it's uh you know i it's i have not figured out which one i'll put above the other i think outer wilds might inch it out but the other one that would be in contention for me and i'm sure maybe for you is securo shadows died twice that's another one i'm

putting on the list here that's like that's a that's a good ass video game that's what i'm I want out of an action game. You know what I mean? Like the Perry system, the fast pace of it, the rhythm of it, the feeling of it. Like, if I pick up a controller, I want a game to make me feel the way that Sekiro Shadows die twice makes me feel. And that's another one where post-playing. That's when I played a little bit later.

I played that in, I think, 2021, beginning of 2021. That's another one where after I played it, I was like, oh, yeah, there's another one that would have been on my game of the year. Maybe probably my number one at the moment I played it. Where does Sekiro alive for you, Mike? It's part of the big three. Yeah. The big three.

Very good. Are you holding back your secrets? I mean, I'll wait until the final moment for us to lock in. Like, Secro is definitely part of the top five. It's got to be in the conversation. The Perry. It's in my top five. The counter.

Yeah. The bosses. It was just so good. I'm not willing to reveal my sources or reveal my hand until the time is needed. I mean, but it's up there. What other games we got to add here? Let me give me another big five. Ready for this one?

I'm ready. For the nerds out there. Oh. Fire emblem, three houses. For the nerds out there. Wait, did you play Fire Emblem? Oh, you just played Fire Emblem three houses. I just played a little bit of it.

But is that, the nerds out there. But is that like a kind of funny us list, you know? It was a Tim honorable mention. Where are the people playing Nintendo? Where are they up? Where are they? Someone find them. They're out there somewhere.

They're missing. I think it definitely It'll be a big five It's on a lot of people's lists It'll be a big five I don't think it lands on this list And that's mainly because It's not who we are

Bless hasn't played it Tim played a little Or Tim beat it I believe I don't think Barry played it Yeah But Mike played it was on the original Right

It was the number I forget where we put it Number six On the original Oh really okay So I felt just outside Probably because of Imran Could be a big five

That's got to be an Imron And a Tim thing Listen I've written it down. You add Mike to list. Big five. You would put it in your top five even though you haven't beaten it. For everyone on the Don Concom.

He got to honor him. Every now and then, Andy calls Mike a fraud in which each day, I understand. Someone's got to do it. You got to do it. Alex Bobko does write in with a super chat and says, Fire Unblem, Three Houses is my game of the year for 2019. Great story and gameplay with a ton of replayability and the different houses. That's a game that I wish I played.

That's the game that, like, I want to fix my sins, but I figure it's easier to just play the next fire emblem that's coming out in a year. You know what I mean? Like, I plan to play that. But the more I hear about Fire Emblem Three Houses, the more I'm like, damn, that seems like it would have been my gateway into strategy role playing. I went back and listened to not only the OG podcast, but then I went back to listen to the privated video that had a post show back when we would do like the Patreon post shows. Oh, yeah. So it was like, you know, an extra six or eight minutes. it's longer than the OG episode.

And got a little missed you out on the drive-in. There was a little mention from the homie Brian, Nabishin, who had written in Brian's game of the year, rest and peace, Brian, we love you, we miss you. Was Kingdom Hearts 3. Wow. As his 2019 game of the year. Yeah, I was a big walking.

And I wonder, when is Mike going to play Kingdom Hearts 3? Yeah, when am I going to be ready to open up my heart? Yeah. Yeah. When are you going to face your fears? It's got to be in the lead-up to four, right? Like, that's the most logical thing for you. When's Jeff Keely going to announce four?

It's in his hands. You think Jeff Keely is going to announce it? Oh, it's in his hand. I think you befriend him. You go to a beach or whatever you've been wanting to do with Jeff Keely for a long time. Go to a beach hang out with him. I think that, I think four is, because he's already announced, right? But I think you get whatever next trailer on like the most random square annexed you,

page. No, I think it'll be TGS next there. TGS, like Tokyo Game Show? Yeah, I can see that. A year from now, pretty much. Like, it's going to be at a place where it's like, you're bigger than this. Like, it's me one of them ones where it's like, why do you Peter here? You could have done this at like the biggest event or whatever. You ready for a hot take? Yeah, let me hear. This one. This is one that like

people aren't going to be happy about. But it's the truth now with the people that we have. It would make the top five. Call of Duty Modern Warfare. 2019. The reset and a new beginning for Call of Duty. My kind of fixed the 2019. I'm just letting

you know, if you look at the people in this office, if you remember back to what Call of Duty Modern Warfare, 2019 was, and did for the franchise, it would be on this list. And the only other person I feel like who would vote for it would be Roger. Mike, Roger,

and Andy would vote for this. I, brother, we don't even got into control yet. I'm just letting you know it would make the list. When I look at when I look at my list, though, because here's the thing, really wasn't until war zone though Mike. Warzone was 2020. Warzone 20, but called you to 9 or 2019, I think.

Don't forget about Fara. I think, yeah, shout out to Fara. That is one of the, I think that's the start of me enjoying their campaigns. Because, you know, I don't know who. Falkar was there. I don't know who, what's his face? I don't even turn McGahn. So McTavis.

So McAvish. Yeah. Yeah. Um, do you call them turd-be-cabvin? Yeah. I don't know what's this? I was going to say, Turr-Berguson. But yeah, like, I didn't really fuck with a whole lot of those campaigns.

They just really, I wasn't gaming a whole lot when those games were out. So 2019 was like, whoa, this is a really cool big budget game. But multiplayer, I just wasn't viving with like that. It wasn't this whole 2020, that war zone in the fold kind of brought everything all together for me. so I don't know if it would make I don't think it's on my top 10 Mike I'll write it down and then you know

we're gonna organize this list and figure it out but 20th the cod you said modern warfare yeah all right can I throw out a few yes please katana zero

yes we need to have on there kinda zero I agree one of the hottest indie games of that year just as consideration it doesn't need to be on the list but I want to shout it out ape out

ape out fucks not enough people talk about ape out Ape out's a good game. And it doesn't have to be game of the year. It doesn't have to be in the top three or top five or whatever. But it's still my game of the year is Star Wars Jedi Fall in Order. I think we'll revisit it because I think Star Wars Jedi Fall in Order probably still makes a spot. That's a good video game right there.

I look at my list. My number two though is Sekiro now. Wow. Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order falls at number 10 on my list. It's probably in my top 10. but I got another game. I got another game that I think multiple of us will still have in our top 10.

The Nintendo commenters, oh, Mike is so base. Oh, man. We need a Mike pandering moment. Mike really is a politician to the audience and the crazy thing is that it works. Like, I need to start do what Mike does. I don't start being

such a big fan for games I'm going to fuck about. They said, get trials in the sky three and I said okay, cool, I'll get it. Trails? Trails in the sky? Trails in the sky first chapter? You're such an ass hat. From now on, my game with the year 2020, 25, Kingdom come deliverance to you guys.

Y'all got to play it. No, that's not, they don't know. You're based. Bates. To, like, we, y'all got to play it. It's the most influential game. It's the most influential game. What is the one that they're going to say that they're like this.

you the most. This year? I think it is. It's kingdom coming. That's not our audience. There's a small, there's a small group that says it's not, that's not it.

It's Expedition 33 is game of the year. Yeah, but we say that authentically. Yeah, but they'll ride for that one. Well, of course, oh, you know what, you're right.

You're right. Whatever they ride for. Because I say it, and I mean it, Mike says it because he knows people will get on its side. Bear, without a,

I don't want anybody to check Slack right now. Don't look at Slack. I'm not looking at it. Can you bring up the link that I posted in assets and just play it because this makes my top 10 easily. For a 2019, it makes it top.

You're top five. Astro tape. Oh, nailed that. Yeah, no, we got to write that down. Fuck, man.

Oh. This game fucks, dude. Such a good fucking game. Put it on, hey, I'm surprised I still recognize the soundtrack. What I need, look,

go into, Hey, open up that fucking executable or whatever you do in your game development. Open up that file. I'm sure it's on a Google drive somewhere. Open it up and just hit the little dial that says unlock frame rate. Get that shit rocking on Switch 2, dude. Because this game rocks so hard. I love Astral Train so much.

Platinum Games fucking killed it with this. It is a game that has just like so much fun action and the really cool mechanic of, you know, you're a dude who has like a kind of a polandum. Pokemon summon, you know, creature, teammate, whatever you want to call it, on your squad. Yeah. And you're like tied by a little chain or whatever by a, it's like almost like on a leash almost. And you sort of wrap it around the enemy with the leash and then it like stuns them. And then you go in.

The action is so sick. The world is so cool. It's got such a weird ass story. This is, actual chain is like one of my most underrated games that I wish more people played. And I'm super happy that I played it. Yeah. And it's in my top 100 list.

I'll tell you that much. Wow. I forget if it's in my top 100, but, you know. Think about it now. I mean, now it's like, man, maybe. Yeah, think about it. The one that I tease before the break, control. Control's got to be there.

Come on. Come on. We don't talk about 2019 enough in video games. Because there's a lot of good. 2019 actually kind of reminds me of 2025 in the sense that there are so many quality video games, but also like weird and like very specific video games. You know what I mean? Like I look at this year and it's, you know,

Expedition and it's fucking Destraining, which funny enough came out this year as well, right? But like, right. Or came out that in 2019 as well. But, you know, a lot of the blueprints, a lot of the games that are coming out this year that are Game of the Year contenders are games that are, you know. They don't serve like mass appeal in like

the ways that we think about Game of the Year. Yeah, you know, like there is not a bunch of Gose Yote's and I'm saying that even though I think Ghostioete's great game. I like that's what we're putting 15. It's a good game just like Metro Dred. I would say it's a great game. Good game. Yeah. Great game. Goose the Yote. You know what I mean? Like I don't have many complaints about it all. But, like, you know, I think you look at that and it's like, well, a lot of years you're filled with the Ghost of Yotay's.

2025 and 2019 are both, like, very varied as far as, like, the kinds of games they're getting a lot of quality out of. Yeah, there's so much variety and that's why we're doing 15 games. Equal to a Tufton. Of course. Again, you can send in 15, but you got to. You got to. We'll count it the way. I'll count it.

Resident Evil remake 2. Sorry, Resident Evil 2 remake. I haven't been That's my number 15 Wow Good ass video game That's top five for me Top five

Just too scary That's top five for you And that's just a personal thing And I know that I'm wrong there You know I think It's so funny listening I was again Listening back to the discussions

Happening in 2019 I believe The I believe they were talking about Maybe Keeley's Game Award show And Tim was like

Yeah but I think it being a remake hurts it. And to think that Resident Evil 4 remake made a top six and was a game of year candidate on the game awards. And that being way more of a one to one than Resident, like, Resident Evil 2 remake is as far as you can go to like, that's a true remake. Yeah. Not only are you remaking every asset, but you're totally changing the whole way the video game plays.

And it's just so funny to think like, yeah, but it's a remake. It probably won't make the list or whatever. And, uh, and yeah, now this is like a totally different way that we're, thinking. I remember back in 2019 having that conversation with people who are like, ah, you know, it's not, it's a remake. I don't know if it deserves yada yada. And I'm like, get the fuck out of here. That game did so much new. Resony Evil 2 was such a ground up, like reimagined, really fully fleshed out game. It's nothing like the original Resident Evil 2 because the original Resident Evil 2 was like a PS1 game. You know what I mean? Like this game is new.

This game is like, you know, I don't know. I feel like it is practically a new game for what it is, even though it's based off of the original Resident Evil too. Was Smash Ultimate 2019? No, that was 2018. That was end in 2018. You are thinking of another Nintendo game, though. Which one? Someone that had the courage to drop

on a date that we don't get enough good drops on. Halloween. October 31st. A man in green showed up to a mansion. And he had one goal. To kill the CEO. That's crazy. You can't make that joke.

Luigi's Mansion 3, top five. Did you play Luigi's Mansion 3? I did. Yeah, he did it recently. Oh. He did play it recently. I played Final Fantasy 10 this year, too. It's a big one.

Great game. That game, I know you really enjoy it. Great game. That game, I believe you love Final Fantasy 10. Great game. I'm talking about Luigi's Mansion 3. Luigi's Mansion 3 for the Nintendo nerd. See, I was still like we got so many strong games.

We'll talk about it. That's a 5-10 window. We'll talk about it. 5-10 window. Now, I would agree with that. If it was kind of funny today, Luigi's Mansion 3 would be a 5 through 10 window. I think, yeah, I think Tim and Greg would give that a lot of points as well, probably Barrett.

I haven't played it, but I know how loved it is. Yeah. Did you play that list? No, I'm not a Luigi's Manchin. I don't really care about Luigi's Mansion. I'm kind of the same. I think it was like, because it didn't make the original list. I remember Tim playing it.

It's not even in the one through nine. Yeah, it's not in that list. I don't know if the rest of us would rock with it. I think once we start talking about ordering, I don't know who he's Luigi's mansion makes it. I know because

there's Devil May Cry. Devil May Cry. Thank you. Damn, that's one I got to play. Oh, Devin' May Cry is fucking six. I know.

Hey, you would like Bompheyes 16? What are we playing at the same time? On one screen, both screens, volume full.

I love this idea. This is music battle in your show. Colleen. Just clashing with each other. Yeah, that's the one I've always wanted to play.

I did, I remember doing a party mode. forward way back in the day. And that'll make cry? Yeah, for DMC 5. Oh, wow. And it wasn't even a, it was when we were like, hey, what if we also did like some

unedited party modes to like kind of ease the workload off me? So it was just like a let's sit down and I'll play it and, you know, Nick and Tim were kind of hanging out with me. And I see the vision. I understand it. Beautiful looking game. Holy shit. Visually looks amazing.

And it's got all the action that you want. I just, I never was able to get. back to it that year. I played like 70% of this game, maybe like 80% of this game. And for whatever reason, I just didn't finish it. Really,

really enjoyed it, but wasn't like a, this is like my favorite game ever sort of thing. And that's always been my case with Devlin May Cry. I've always really enjoyed them. But they've never, I've never been obsessive over

Devon May Cry like that. Though all the ingredients that are there, I fuck with heavy. The style, the character design, the hype moments, the music, the devils.

Like all of it. I fuck with all of it. Yeah. It's all. my shit, but for whatever reason, it's like, you know, they've never been like the most like, oh man, this is my whole personality sort of thing. One another hot take. What's that?

Another hot take. You ready for this? Gears 5 would not make the top 10. Would they make your top 10? Gears 5 would probably make the back half of my top 10 and have a strong conversation of being booted out to the 11 through 15 win. Wow. Currently sitting at 8 on my list.

and I could have a conversation of it not being on the list. I noticed that we have it on our kind of funny 2019 list, but a hot take, it wouldn't make it now. What I'll throw out there? Outer Worlds. Outer Worlds lands at my 16. Wow. Underneath Resident Evil 2 remake.

I think Outer Worlds would be in my top 10. Probably in the 5 through 10 range. I still really enjoy the video game. I think it's like it has some awesome story beats in it like some truly cool shit happening with you know

choosing that faction over the other and then how those stories kind of clash and I really enjoyed a lot of it I just wish it was their gameplay wise I wish the gameplay was more enjoyable one of the ones all throughout there

in the indie conversation alongside Katana Zero and Apal sign our Wild Hearts I have that as my number 11 Sign our wallet hearts. Maybe that doesn't make the top 10 list, but I just want to give it a shout out. I love that game.

I, a game very, very high on my list. It's very important to me in my life. And it was a big key factor in my, in my growth of my own sort of side streaming stuff. Super Mario Maker 2. No way, that was 2019. I think I'm pretty sure.

Holy shit. I have that as my number nine on my list. This is number six. this is number six on my list. It, uh, I mean, just so much variety and creativity. And as somebody who wasn't really around from Mario Maker one,

just because I didn't have a Wii U. Well, I did, but the ex-girlfriend kept it in the breakup, you know, so unfortunate. Just kept the Wii U. Yeah,

I was like, man, I mean, that's an odd choice. I paid for this, yeah. I happy about that. But, um,

I just think it was such a, a cool communal moment to also make friends with, with other content creators that I was big fans of talking about Ross O'Donovan formerly of Game Grumps and just an awesome animator and

to have him post his levels up and then me decided to play those levels because I'm a fan of his and then him to see that I was streaming them and go like, hey, go watch this streamer. He's like crashing out, well, they weren't using the... We weren't using the word crashing out in that way. It meant to sleep. I still use Crashin' Out to Sleep.

That's Unc status plus. Yeah, that's super uncat-as. It's like, I still, you know, I'm going to crash out. Yeah, I'm going to go take a nap. Yeah, I'm going to go sleep real quick. Anyway, to have him be like, hey, this guy's like, you know, losing his shit playing my levels, go watch him. And then to kind of form a friendship there. I was like, it was awesome for me.

It was just like, it felt like a really cool come up for me to kind of expand my audience. And even outside of like people from kind of funny, just going like, oh, shit, that's, you know, I like this dude, you know, raging and losing his shit over Mario. Maker levels. Really awesome game and the creativity in it was just tons of fun. I'm going to tie down death training one. Yeah, you should. That's in my top five. That's my number seven right below. Super Mario Maker

2. A couple games, here's the thing about 2019. Like I mentioned, over the years I play more and more games from that year specifically that end up becoming some of my favorite games. A couple that I still need to get to that I'm kind of sad, aren't making it for me in this conversation at least, are Return of the Oprah Din. I have that

in my actual backlog. Like, I really want to play return of the Oberden and I feel like it would probably make my list if I had played it. I'm pretty sure it's like Polygons, 2019 game of the year. Dude. I'm sure it's in the conversation. Maybe it was Sekiro. It's like another like Outer Wild situation.

Obridon was 2018. Oh, was it? Yeah, because I remember being at IGN when that came out. Maybe it got ported in 2019. I think it got ported in 2019 because I'm looking at Eurogamer's top 50. So yeah. Oh, it says console here. Yeah, you're right.

Okay. Then I say I'm saved. Because I saw Red Dead 2 unless. I was like what? I was like, oh, the PC version of Red Dead is on that look. You know what? you know what, that's true, because Divinity Original Sin 2 is also on here, but that's specifically for Switch. Okay.

So, okay. How about Tom Clancy's the Division 2? That was a moment for us. That is far outside. That's like so outside of my top 10, it's number 11. So it could make the top 10. Especially with Greg there. Mike.

Yeah. Myself as well. My 11. That's my number 10. Vote giving it. Can't believe. We're not voting for Greg and Tim. This is our.

We're fixing 2019. Oh, okay. in our image. You know what I mean? But like three of us here. Fucked with it though. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I do like Division as well.

But not that much. But I, you know, I fuck with it. Division II is awesome. Like, I mean, one of those games that I just, outside of destiny, probably the only other game at that time that I just really, really got addicted to doing the dailies, you know,

playing with your friends. And it wasn't just a, I think, I think if people went back and replayed the division two in its entirety and experienced it with like fresh eyes of today would be way more impressed by it now with what it's doing story-wise and what it's doing with setting the scenes in some of these levels

like it is way more than just a yeah that game's fun to play with friends it is so much more than that. Like I think the game does so much to impress you on a, like, it just feels like a single player game in some ways that they are building these levels out. And the way, I never forget, one of the missions chasing after this, like, dude, and you hear reports about some guy kind of going crazy in some spot. And you show up there and you, like, walk into the room and the lights go off.

And you hear, like, noise. You're like, whoa, what the fuck is happening here? Like, they do so many cool things with environmental storytelling, but also. Museum levels. Yeah, like, they do. They fucking rocked. And they kicked ass so hard in making. the division two that I think we look back at it as just thinking at games as a service fun to play

with friends I think it's so much more than that now is it time to actually like start ranking these and reordering I have one for the steam sickos out there oh let's hear that you know I'm always I got my finger on the polls you do I'm just to fun games yeah and the steam sickos would rise up for more Dow more down and slash first and third person medieval night game up the 64 players you're going to be in a lobby with voice chat there's going to be some unhound Instincts. Yeah. You were going to

mute it. I thought you were going to go Slay the Spire. Oh. See, Play the Spire, I've tried. That's a game

if I played it today I'll be obsessed with. I think I played it too early. I played it before my card game obsession. Right.

I played it pre-inscription. If I played Slay the Spire today, I probably would be a different person. Thinking of Mordhow, Mike, it reminds me of how every three months or so

there is one of those Steam games that shocks the world and has 130 concurrence. And you're like, where the fuck? Oh,

games is who made this? A team of 12 people, what the fuck? And it just kind of stuns and becomes the game of the moment. Mordhow was that before I even think we realized games had those moments. You know, like now I think of how Megabunk has sold one million titles or copies on Steam in like two weeks or whatever. Schedule one this year. That was this year.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Repo this year. Yeah, Riepo. Yeah, Riepo was one of those games at the time. I, like, definitely took over, but we just weren't Steam gaming in that way. That Megabong game is good. It's really fun.

You play Megabong? No. You got a long. Is that like the Vampire Survivor's? 3D. Yeah. It's real good. Right now, right now, what's on my brain right now?

What if I, what if after this I start playing Slate the Spire? I, I bought Slate the Spire when the, when Part 2 was announced. Yeah. And just never got around to it. And I'm glad because I do think I would have been sucked in. And I think that would have been less time for other games of that ilk, like, The king is watching, which will definitely be in my top thing. The thing here is that on the way to Pax West,

I sat next to a girl on the plane who was playing Slate the Spire on her phone. And that's usually how I play Magic Arena. It's just like on my phone, on the treadmill, like I'm just going crazy on Magic Arena. Now, how about it? What if that's a play the player? Okay, what's that? Feed your card addiction. Uh-huh.

Maybe you play one of the hit games of this year that we didn't talk about enough. Monster Train 2. We didn't talk about Monster Train 2. You and I interviewed the dev. The game came out to, very positive reviews. Very positive. And we never looked at it again. Maybe that.

Maybe. Mike, think about it. How much, I, I'd like to kind of do a under the table back room deal with you. Okay. Layed on me. Because we're cheating. What do you need me to move? It's one of these like, how much do I have to hang out with you outside of work? No, a lot.

In order for you to put the king as well. watching on your top 10. This year? Yeah. Wow. I think you're going to try and get him play lies a few overture. There's a more time in the Kings of

there's a sumo wrestling event coming to town. Oh, God. Where you can watch sumo wrestling and eat sushi at the same time. He told me about this too. I don't care that much. Okay. Here's another one. You ready for this?

Yeah. Let me hear. Scott the Waz is coming to town. Oh, yeah. You and I will go meet Scott the Watt. I like Scott the Watt. I don't watch him enough, but I think you... We tap him up.

Yeah. Where is that? When is that? Palace of Fine Arts. November. Oh shit, turnstiles is Sunday. Maybe we should go to Turnstiles. But I got fucking, you know, we got Ben's birthday on Saturday.

Yeah, but Turnstile, do you see them right now? They're having a moment. They're having a moment. They're having a really big moment. Yeah. This is like when me and Chris Sankas saw Chapel Rhone, where she was having her moment, but like after this, her next moments will be so big that you'll be up in the nosebleeds. Yeah.

Like right now, Turnstiles might bring you up on. the stage. No, they're playing at a venue that's not happening anymore. Yeah. Well, no, but when you go on stage, people just rush the stage and they crowd surf anyway. Yeah.

I would, in the future, love to have a very serious discussion about our game of the year and how we do things, because I'm very much the type that if I'm allowed to put Shadow the Earth Tree at my top 10, because it's a DLC

that people have a problem with that but I'm like but I'm allowed to do it so I don't give a like if I'm given the rule that I can't do it then totally fine leaving it off because it's DLC or whatever but like I'm not gonna not recognize it as being an amazing experience

same with Liza P Overture and kind of same with I'm feeling the same way about early access because I think about how Tim I think maybe was the only one who put Hades 2 on his Hades 2 made our top 10 last year oh that's so weird

yeah and I'm definitely We called it out specifically as Hades 2 early access. Yeah, and like, it's one of those where it's like... I think you had it on your list as well. I can check. And I think, yeah, I don't know. It's, it is one of those weird things where it's like, because I'm allowed, I guess I'll do it, but...

It feels weird at the same time. For it to be in our top 10, two years in a row. Yeah. It's kind of weird. That's why I actively decided to not vote for it because it didn't feel right. I'm pretty sure I actively decided not vote for it either. Maybe I did. Let me see.

2024. you had it at your number three. Shit ass. I'm very much like, yo, if the game doesn't have an ending and is missing assets, like I'm not putting it in my top test.

Even if the, and that's the thing is, like, the game is good. And it was an early access, which is why it has those things. But I'm kind of like, well,

if it was a completed game and there are missing assets for these characters, then like, that would be a huge problem. I think my thought process was like, I don't want the Hades 2 to be sending out there to die

because Tim's going to be only, on voting for. I think that's where I was with it. I got to... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, it was always going to get its moment, you know? Yeah. One last one, just to bring us back to 2019,

that I want to shout out, you don't have to write it down. But shout out to Trials Rising. I fuck with Trials so much. That was my first trials entry. I don't know if it's technically a great game, but finally, like, understanding, like, oh, this isn't just a motor racing game.

It's like more of a physics puzzle platformer, like experience. Like, I put so much time into Trials Rising. We got to put respect to, on trials as a series. 100% and we haven't seen it since, Mike. Well, it's dead now. I love trials. It's fucked up.

Ubisoft is lost. Another game I'd like to throw, another game I'd like to shout out just as a, I know it won't make the list and it didn't even make my top ten, but it's close. Plagetail, Innocence. Oh, yeah, I was going to shout out Plagetail Innocence. Plagetail, I think that's a really

fun video game. I think it's super dark. Amisia. Just the whole experience of it was depressing as hell and very dark. but I still think it was very worthy in terms of what it was doing puzzles-wise and carrying the torch and all that.

I think it just was a really cool, innovative little video game that I think shot above its weight class in terms of what they were doing with the budget, you know? Shout out, Baba is you. Yeah, that's another one. Baba is you is another great, great. One of those puzzle games that's so good,

but also it defeated me as a puzzle poppy. It was so difficult. That game beat my ass. I was like, man, I don't know. This is a puzzle. for genius. If you beat Baba is you without a guide, like I need y'all to get on fighting cures for

diseases. Yeah. Because that's your level of intellectual if you beat that fucking game. Link's Awakening remake. That's in my top 10. Oh, nice. I love Links Awakening so much. Just a game that meant so much to me as a kid and having all that nostalgia and all that love and magic

pouring back as if I was, you know, into this remake and even though it didn't always run great. But shout out to the devs who they went into the console and they unlocked that little frame rate button because, you know, it ran at 60 frames per second at about maybe 17% of the time. And then it would drop to 30 and 20 and, you know, more heavier areas. But it's just such an amazing soundtrack. And the visual style, I think, is what really opened up, obviously, having Echoes of Wisdom coming out last year. And it's like that,

Grezo having the opportunity to reimagine these video games in this 3D style with that beautiful tilt shift and it's so adorable, it's so cute and it just kind of also opens up so many possibilities for me whenever we get into one of these Nintendo directs and I'm like oh my god if we could get Link to the Past remake in that style or if we could get Oracle of ages or seasons in that style like there's it just kind of opens up so much that makes me excited about the future of that style of games especially when we

talk about. There's always going to be the big Zelda game coming out. How is Nintendo going to fill those gaps? And, you know, hopefully we get more of those. There's one we didn't call out. Ace Combat 7. Okay, we got to get into the top 10. Nobody, we can't keep calling out games that are obviously not in the top 10. Last one, last one for real, Pokemon, Sword and Shield. Yeah. Shout out Pokemon Sword and Shield. Also, another one's not in the top 10, but shout out Borderlands 3 and then shout out, um, actually I think that, oh, Tetris 99 as well. Oh shit, that was 2019? Yeah.

That's got to be top 10. I mean, does it? Tetris 99. One of the best versions of Tetris. I'm gonna write it down. You and 98 other players going to head to head in Tetris. Sending rows to other people to fuck with them in the middle of their flow. Should I delete Katana Zero for it?

That's where the conversation is going to be. No, because Katana Zero is my number five. That's where the conversation is going to end up. No, it's not. That's crazy, Bless. I would cut out. ape out first for Tetris 99. Well, that's the thing is like, we have 19 games written down here.

Okay. And so we're going to start cutting. Let's start cutting. Okay. Ready? Read the 19. We have to cut nine. Okay.

The 19 we have are Outer Wilds, Securo, Apex, Disco Elysium, Fire Emblem, Three Houses, Cod, Modern Warfare. Cut Fire Emblemle. I love you, Mike. You've played two hours of it. You heard it, audience. Here's the thing. Nintendo audience, I have your back.

I'm like, if Andy does it. I ride for you. I don't know. should be the first cut is all. You know what? My Nintendo Twitch was missing for four years. It should be the first cut. I'm not saying let's not cut it, but I'm,

have any of us played more than three hours of this game? I feel like Mike should get a pandering pick. We're going to cut it. I'm pro one Mike pandering pick. But I just like that. We know, Jeff. They did it. Don't say they.

Again, you'd be a great politician. First cut. That's great. We'd do that. But like, I'm going to cut it anyways. I honestly believe that Mike, probably bought another Nintendo Switch

because he lost his first one. Or just had so much dust in it in the closet. And it's in Tahoe somewhere. All right. I'm deleting. I feel bad about deleting Fire Armol. Because I was going to make the thing of like, yo, Mike, I'll give you one pandering pick and that's all. People would have loved that. People would have loved that.

Control, Resident Evil 2 remake Astral Chain Outer World. Astral Chain has to go. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I think that might be number 10. Wow. I think it might be number 10. Okay. We can come back to it. I'm not afraid to cut.

Out of Worlds one. Which maybe we could cut. I think me and Blessing are far too passionate about Astral Chain. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's like it's one of those where if we voted on it, it would make the top 10 because we would have it like in the middle of our list. Yeah. You know, it would get points.

It would be recognized. Devil May Cry 5, Catana Zero, ape out. I think we cut ape out. You can cut ape out. Star Wars, Jedi Fallen Order, Luigi's Mansion 3, Mario Maker 2. You'll probably cut Mario Maker 2. It means so much to me, but I don't know.

Unfortunately, that's cut. I mean, I fuck with Mario Maker 2, but I don't know if I fuck with it that much. Death Stranding, Mordhow and Tetris 99. Mordow's out. Mordow's cut. Call of duty, since it's only me riding for that,

you can cut call of duty. Okay. And then there was an outer world, so that could be cut. Hold on before he cut Outer Worlds I'm trying to look at whatever What else Because like Outer Worlds

I feel like me and Andy both fuck with Outer Worlds I do but it did land outside of my top 10 Like I have my top 17 games That I was just kind of like going through I should have wrote my top in order Okay I'm cutting Outer Rhodes

I feel kind of bad about it but I'm cutting it Outer Worlds was number 16 And it fell below Borderlands 3 for me It fell below Resident 2 remake Which is a game that I was very very scared by it, but I recognize the quality and the amazing artistry behind it. Okay. So we're down to 13 games

now. Where's Luigi's Manson on your list here, realistically Mikey? Six. It could be cut. Is it making any, but it's not making mine. It's not making mine. And it technically is already out of the top ten. Yeah, because I have it sitting here

number 11. But I don't even know, like, if this... There wasn't really... It was like a little bit of an order to it, but not really in order to it. Yeah, yeah. Did you play Barrett? Well, hold up. Astral Chain over Luigi's Mansion. There's way more passion for the actual chain. The nerds will come for you. I mean, you're right.

But again, are we making this list for them or for us? That's true. Then I will bow out of Luigi's Mansion and what they took from you. I hate you so much. He loves doing that. I have a fucking backbone. He loves doing that. It's always blame him.

That's crazy that y'all would do that. It's not our list. The shift blame is it. We didn't play it. Now, hold on. No, to be honest. To be real, to be real. Yeah.

If you had Luigi's mansion at your number one, then I go, shit, maybe in my mind, maybe that would have gotten enough points to have it on the top 10. Yeah. But it's your number five. And nobody here else played it. And I'm all right with that. What's the, what's the 10? Remember this Nintendo fans.

I ride for you. I tried. I tried, you guys. I made the argument. Files of the sky. That's on those. I loved trials of the sky. Name three firearm characters.

Yeah. Name one firearm character. Mars. It's fast frozen. Oh, I meant three houses. Yeah, name a character from three houses. Name a character from three houses. The game of your rider die for.

Fucking fraud. He's the fraud gun. Oh, man. Jesus. Okay, before we cut Luigi's Mange, because here's the thing. I think you're right about like, wow,

Luigi's Mention 3 over. Astral Chain because I think that is popular consensus or whatever. Yeah. So before we do it, I want to make sure that like there's nothing else that we're like, oh, that's an easy cut. So like Tetris 99. Are we still like that's a top 10 looking at what you have here? I like Tetris 99.

I'm in on that. It's one of those where I go, if it makes a list, I can't be sour about it. I didn't put a whole lot of time into it at all, but I understand. It's one of the best games of all time and it's the battle real version. What a cool recipe. See, I was still basking in the, just the energy. of Tetris effects, because that came out like the year before. It did. So by the time of Tetris 99, I came around, I liked it a lot, but I was also like,

yeah, but man. They served two different, you know, uh, aspects of what Tetris can be, though. Yeah. And those are like my number one and two versions of Tetris. That's fair. Thank you, Creed in the chat. He says, they're not saying fire, how, Fire Ambled three houses isn't good. It's just none of them have played it.

Yeah. Exactly. And one person on the set is really fighting for it and he put two hours into it. But he can't name a character. He can name the Smash Bros. character. Okay. I'm trying to look at what else.

Are we going to fight for Katana Zero on this list? I might. That's my number three. It's your three? It's my five. Okay. I think that's going to stay. Devil May Cry 5.

I feel like that could I'm not going to fight for it. You could cut it. Yeah. Okay. We're cutting Devil May Cry 5. I won't fight hard. Was it in your 10?

It's in my 10, yeah. Okay. Was it in your 10, bless? I didn't make a 10 Oh okay But Dev Mac Cry 5 probably wouldn't have been in my 10 Um Is there anything our top

Our top six is Outer Wild Securo Apex Legends Disco Elysium Control RE2 Is there any of those that were like Oh let's cut it I'm fine for all of those I'm fine for all of these as well

So we got to cut two It sounds like No we are going to reorder as well right We're going to be order Okay We're going to reorder All right let's get Let's rewind to death stranding

let's get real for a second. Yeah. I'm looking at the 7 through 12 spot, just so everybody knows in the chat right now. Let's talk about Death Stranding. Death Stranding was number seven on my list. Death Stranding would probably be in my top five. I would put Death Training like, oh, man, that's a strong top five.

It's a really packed like top seven or six. I put personally, Destraining would be toe to toe with control. Okay. That's where I'm, that's like where I have it. Barrett? I didn't really jive with Death Stranding 1. Okay.

Let's delete Luigi's Mansion 3. Okay. Remember, chat. Remember what they took from you? If I'm being real right now, because we have to cut one more. Yeah. If we were to cut astral chain, you have 10. I think the cut is between astral chain,

Catana Zero, Tetris 99. Unless is it, is it Fallen Order? Fallen Order is my number 10. My game of the year. I think you cut Tetris. Fallen order would also be in my top 10. It would be low on my top 10, but it would be in there. Yeah, and if we're thinking about imaginary points,

Barrett having a number one would have it way up there. Yeah. If I'm visualizing the imaginary points. I feel like Tetris 99. It goes between Tetris 99, Astral Chain. I think you cut Tetris 99. Yeah. It hurts.

That's crazy. I think from there, Astrochain number 10? Yeah. Yeah. Katana Zero number nine? Yes. I would put, just thinking about us and our shared interests. Like, I fuck with Star Wars Jedi Fall in Order Heavy.

That is still my game of the year, but Katana Zero, I would put Katana over. Yeah. Oh, interesting. As a group, I could see us putting Katana Zero above Star Wars. I would put Jedi Fall in Order literally right. in front of it, eight. Okay. I like that eight, nine combo,

but I could ride for y'all. I have Katana Zero. I have Katana Zero over Death Stranding on my list. Do you have it over Star Wars? I have it over. Star Wars is number 10 for me. Okay, so I'm putting Star Wars number nine then. Because most of us have Katana Zero over it.

And then we can still work our way up. So, Ian, you said you have Katana Zero over Death Stranding? Yes. I assume Barry would have that too. Yeah, I don't. Death Stranding is not on my list. I would probably have. I probably have death draining over Katana Zero

but also they're not far though like they're kind of in that equal realm for me I have death straining over Katana Zero but because Bear does not have death stranding at all I would put Katana Zero over this Okay So that moves Destraining down to number 8 God I can't wait for that DLC

That's gonna be so nasty Katana Zero It's gotta be a sequel to this boy Katana Zero Yeah like it can't just be fucking DLC anymore It's been six years You think it'll be the Silk Song if I I hope so.

That'd be awesome. So, so long. So I don't think Katana Zero is cracking the top six because then we're talking about RE2, Control,

Disco, Apex, Sekiro, and Outer Wilds. Okay. Is anybody who want to make the argument? For Katana Zero? Yeah. Katana Zero is over

RE2 remake for me, but that's... Yeah, at that point it's personal taste, but like I don't feel passionate about fighting for it to be higher. I'm definitely R&2. two over Catana.

I see any list that has RE2 over Katana. I'm like, yeah, that's probably makes sense to me. All right. So, in our top six, what are we moving here? Again, number one, Outer Wilds, number two, Sekaro, number three, apex, number four, disco, number five, control, number six,

RE2. I think disco should probably move down because even though you fuck with it heavy, bless, the rest of us. The rest of you guys haven't played it. I haven't played it. We have to be real. I can probably put it at number six. even though it's a top five game but you know we can you know I don't want to dwell

it's an honorable man chat remember what they took from you yeah remember what they took from you it's another one it doesn't have to end up at six but I'm just saying like where it was like three or four or whatever

it's another one of those things where I'm like you know a bunch of commies you know yeah yeah when I see it on any list that it's very very high like I understand

that it's one of the best RPGs ever the first time I also try to play it though it didn't have the voice acting same yeah And it was like just not a good time for me to start a game. And I was also like, never forget, I was like playing on my, I think it was a game pass game maybe. And I was just playing like on my Xbox when my bed was still in that room. It was just like a weird situation.

Not a great time for me to start a very, very deep RPG at like 2 p.m. on a Saturday. It just wasn't the right vibe. Yeah. I think, yeah, I'll just put in bid for number one early. It should be Secura. Securo and Outer Wilds are top two for sure I if Securo Beets Outer Wilds

I will beat off on the stand If it beats Outer Wilds I totally understand It's personally not my number one But is it your number two It's my number fucking two Yeah It's my number two as well

It's too goaded Sekiro Behr is your number two Yeah that's my number two between Outer Wilds and Sekiro Where's Securo on your list, Mike? Number two is, well Yeah

Where's Outer Wilds under your list, one? Not on there. We gotta get you, let's eat some gummies, play some Outer Wilds. Yeah, Outer Wilds might be my number one. They're tied. Securo and Outer Wilds are just tied for me.

I think that's where I'm at. We can't do that. No, I gotta choose one. Not allowed to bless. So here's my argument for having Outer Wilds over Securo. I and we're going to get into the space where it's like

it's going to sound like I got to do whatever I kind of trash my number two game yeah you're going to start talking shit yeah we've had I think it's a really I think Sekiro's like I think it's a good game

it's a good game it's a good game it's a good game Seqo's not bad all right it's not a bad game no I think I think it is easily

the best action of from Software's catalog yeah however lore and story wise that's where I'm not like it really was super strong

in those spots and a lot of that is because it at one point was a Tensu game and like now they're trying to like turn it into it's sort of trying to find a new identity for it but it's like it's the gold standard for combat and we've seen everybody try

and replicate that since and we've had some people get pretty damn close. I've just never had another gaming experience like Outer Wilds. I think nothing has really resonated with me on that level where I, it just like changed the way I look

at game design as a whole. I think if I were to put review scores to these games, and this is going to probably solidify this for me is I would give Outer Wild a 10. Sekiro, I'd probably give like a 9.5. I think there's a 0.5 I could see there for like story and lore and stuff

of like not, it's not bad. It rounds up to a 9.99. It's a good game, it's a good game. It's a good game. It's a good game. It's a good 9.5. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Um, but I think there's that little missing, like, okay, well, he didn't really engage me to the, you know, maximum degree on the story level,

even though I still like the story and world and stuff of Sekiro. The fact that most of us, that all of us here played it and the fact that all of us still had, it's all of our number twos, I think. And all of us,

for the most part, had another game on top of it. But again, Me and Blessing are the only ones who play Outer Wilds. So it's like... That's tough. All right, so, Resident Evil 2 remake number one. We're not doing another ratchet year, bless.

I think just with... I don't know, it's tough to say. If two people have Outer Wild and Number One and nobody else played it... If y'all are super passionate about it, you know, because we're having like a fun little back and forth, which is, you know, how, like, other podcasts usually do it, and not how we do it with, like, just the voting and points and shit. Like, I could...

I would concede and let y'all have Outer Wild to number one. Yeah. If we don't put Outer Wild's number one. I think y'all are forgetting about the top of the table. Okay? Climbing up to the tippy top fighting Ginichiro again. Okay? I think y'all are forgetting about under the moonlight in the thick grass,

taking him on one more time. I think y'all are forgetting about when you cut that monkey's head off and arose up from the ashes. Why are you talking this way? You know, I'm just putting a little respect on sex. Why are you talking about black breaches? over here. I just, I noticed you have forgotten the moments. Okay, fuck everything I just said, Mike's right. It should be number one. Jumping off of the castle wall into a giant field and a man on a horse

shows up and he says, fuck you. I guess we got to fight, right? Like, I'm just, I'm noticing. I am Diobo Masa Masa Taka oniwa. Like, yeah, those are big moments. Those are big moments. I think the way it in terms. What black church did you attend? I'm dying the day. I'm trying to kill me and make. Why is Shannon Sharp on the set right now?

Why is Michael Irvin up here? The way that game teaches you how to play the game, I think it's so expertly done compared to even what the rest of Frumsoft does. And that is purely because it is, you just got to learn the fight. Mike just pandered Barrett. He's a master. Yeah, he just pander me. He's so good at Pager.

I also think the Mike was looking at chat at Prym. And people are getting mad at him. So he decided to go for Sacki Ro. They said, what hell is it going on here? Can I get an amen? Can I get an amen? Mike, what's your number one? Apex Legends.

Okay, so that feels right at number three then. Yeah. What's your number one? Mine was Star Wars, so, you know, and just because with the group, I can see that being number nine. What are our number threes then? Catan number three is control for me.

I'm going to be Resident Evil, too. Mine would probably also be Resident Evil, too. Where's control for you? actually no, I probably have Apex above Resident Evil 2. I'd probably have my number 3 be, oh, you said control. Oh, hold on, let me think. I guess disregarding

Disco Elysium and stuff, because Discoleism is probably actually my number 3. But if I'm, if I'm ordering the ones we have remaining, I'd probably go Apex RE2, then control. I'd go RE2, then Apex. I'll give you control of 3. I have

Outer Wild Securo Control. Control. Apex. Is how you went one through five there. That's also how I did it. One through four. Outer Wild, Securo, Control, Apex, Catana Zero. Outer Wilde, Securo.

Control, Apex Legends, Katana Zero. I think we all have very different lists. Yeah. That's why, like, 2019. We've already said Katana Zero's at six. Well, I'm giving you my top five. That's just, that's just a top five. Now you got to stick with us.

All right. Let's reset. Now we're back on. Let's reset. I thought you were just asking for my personal top. Okay, yeah, yeah. looking at, if we're going to stick with Outer Wilder Ballas number one, second row number two.

Let's look at that three through five, because I think now that's like kind of what we have left. It sounds like Apex number three, because Mike has it as his number one. Blessing is also very high on it. Yeah. That was something that was also very high on Andes. Or are you going to go control number three?

I think you keep it as is. Control number four. I think you keep it as is as well. I have to remember how badly control launched. Think about it. Like, here's where I'm at. Yeah. If we looked at our number one and two,

which is Ottawa and Securo. And if we looked at our number three and four, Apex Legends and Control, if we took those two groups and hit randomized, I would be totally fine with Securo being number one or with control being number three or whatever. Like, you know what I mean?

Like if our one and two were just randomized, and I do think it makes sense that in my mind I'm being very hypocritical. I've been trying to like look at the imaginary points there that don't exist. And then Gilbert made a great point of like, Like, Sekiro's on everybody's list of number two. Why isn't it number one?

I think that makes a lot of sense. Makes a lot of sense. He made great points for Outer Wilds. Made you feel something. Yeah. Outside of a cutscene. There was puzzles. There was the sun.

But you're not thinking about sorts of A. You're not thinking about the three monkeys on top of the palace and got to go chase them on the rooftop. I mean, that was the least cool part. Yeah. That was not a fun one of them. Oh, that's nice, that. But remember when you. like go back in time and fight

what's her name? Lady Butterfly. Lady Butterfly? That was crazy. And your dad. And also it has, Securo easily has the best

gimmick boss fight of any of the gimmick boss fights. Which one? The fucking magical, mystical dragon. Oh, that was heading the light. Yeah.

Oh, that was so cool. We know that from Software loves their gimmick fights. You get into a big boss fight, you're like, oh, wow, this is cool. And you go, oh, this is just a gimmick thing and I have to use that one weapon to just hit the tail or whatever and it's not like a real boss fight

this that's definitely the best from software gimmick boss fight of all time but what about dark souls three when you get the big wind sword and you hit the giant with it and he falls backwards you know what I mean which one's that when you're in the long hallway and it's a giant and you got a fucking true shadow oh oh yorm yeah I like that whole win Cigmeier oh that's just lit that's just lit though it was lit yeah That was good. What about the giant skeleton that looks like he's out of the mummy?

Now we're just talking dark. Yeah, he's doing this, he got to beat up on his bracelets. Yeah. So dumb. I wrote down honorable mention Fire Emblem Three Houses. Just because like,

we got to talk about it. That'll save you in the comments. I'll do game of the year, our game of the year list brought to you by Fire Emblemlim Three houses. Make it the dumb nail. Yes. Fire. Yeah.

There we go. That's how you fix it. Okay. So are we keeping this? re-changing this? Because I can't tell if we're putting Securo number one or keeping Outer Wilds. I'm okay with either. I'm fine with this. I'm totally okay. I would like to hear.

I think I think I could see control going over Apex Legends if you guys are that passionate about it. I don't know if it's you guys. Because I'm with you. I put Apex above control as well. Sorry. Yes, I put Apex above control. You do as well because you didn't play control.

Barrett. I have neither on my list. Okay. Yeah. I mean, I think it should be long at number three then because it's like it's number four for me control is number three so it's like I'm with you that if you hit a randomizer yeah whatever I don't care if anything I put R you two above control but also also no hold on also you know what here's the thing wow I think it's the biggest testament to getting a game like Sekiro to win the Keeley Game Awards game of the year it really kind of felt like if John Wick were to win the best picture at the Oscars,

you know, like, yeah, it's, it's a very, it's, it's, it's, it's a super action heavy game.

It, that is what the game is, right? And usually like, it, I feel like that was the biggest surprise and made a lot of people go, oh,

wait, what, one game of the year? What the fuck? And now all those people are believers now. Yeah. Because they'd heard a ton about from software and how goaded they are. but it, I feel like Securo being put on the map

in that way was such a big upset because people like, I think it's so wild to have a unanim, like, for the games industry at large, the way the game industry votes on Game of the Year to vote for a game like Sekiro to win at the Keeley Award. What's funny is that I look at the nominations

for Kili Awards that year and I go, of course it's Sekiro. Yeah, no. In retrospect. Yeah. Yeah, because like the nominees were Sekiro, Reson, Evil 2, dust draining, control, Super Smash, Ultimate,

and outer world. I would love to go back to watch whatever predictions we made for that year and see how wrong we all were. Yeah. Because my guess is that we probably were guessing Smash. I think we're, oh, I think we're guessing

control. Yeah, maybe. Actually, I don't know if there was a consensus. I think control might have been the popular prediction. All I know is that like when, you know, the industry is singing the praise of Al in Wake 2. I'm like, all right, but

imagine if you could fly and use telekinesis. Yeah, dude. And the combat was cool and fun because that's control. And like, what a great, what a video game that showed me how cool and weird

art direction could get in a game that's still very combat heavy. Yeah. Like when we talk about how games stun you with art direction, it's always like, usually at that time I feel like normally the indie games are doing the weirder stuff.

But talk about a game that was just so, changes the way I think games work when you walk into a new area the fuck hits the front and it's like oh remedy you are doing oh this is this is what I want every game to do from now on

like control is just so special dude so to recap our fixed 2019 game of the year list brought to you by Fire Realm of them three houses looks like this at number 10 we got Astral Chain and number nine Star Wars

the Jedi Fallen order. At number eight, death stranding. Number seven, katana zero. And number six, disco elysium. At number five, Resident Evil Two remake. At number four, control. And number three, Apex Legends. At number two, Sekiro Shadows died twice. And at number one, we got Outer Wilds. Before we get out here, I want to look at some super chats. Read them off for you. Super Jets. Banner. S.N. writes in and says, can't wait to finally see Kingdom Hearts Three take home the win it deserves. Glad you all are finally correcting the record. Thank you, Bander. Cognitive Cliffs says game of the year

2019 is control. You can go home early. Charlie Reeves writes in it says Outer Worlds, Fall in Order, Resley 2, Sekaro, control. We've got all those in there for you. $2 super jab from Jeffrey Kirby says Untitled Goose Game, that is all. Oh, we didn't even mention Entitled Goose game. That's a good one.

Christopher writes in and says, how did the Outer Worlds get a Game of the Year NOM over Outer Wilds in 2019? I feel like I'm going crazy here. I think typos. You know. Yeah. People meant to write in Outer Wilds

And they kept writing in the Outer Worlds Yeah Alec Bobko says Or any Outer Wilds votes The Keeley voters are like I guess they meant Outer Worlds probably It's what I do during kind of feudy When I'm filing answers

I'm like oh sure you meant this thing Close enough Alec Bobco says Fire Emum Three Houses in my game in the year for 2019 Great story and gameplay With a ton of replayability in the different houses Dylan Hopkins says Control is definitely in my top three of 2019

Cozy Bear says Kingdom Hearts 3 isn't my favorite game of 2019, but it's easily my favorite game ending of 2019. Those final few hours were Chef's Kiss. I have a super shot from Noah Oam Bless, which reminds me of your honorable mentions on that old games cast because Noah Oum says Outer Wild is my easy number one. But ukulele in the Impossible Lair doesn't get enough love.

Oh, fuck. And that was one of your honorable mentions that year. Dude, ukulele in the Impossible Lair, you want to talk about criminally underrated, like most underrated games for me. that's like that's one that I feel like people are still sleeping on to this day. If I'm making a list of top my top 10 2D platformers, ukulele and impossible layer is probably on the list.

I love that game. That's crazy. I forgot about it too. So I'm also underrated. Oscar Navarro says Mike has has to play all the side games in the series before he even tries to play King of Hearts 3. Otherwise, he'll miss the Lolly Lou Leil-Lore. You can watch a video.

I watch them. I watched the last one, Chana Memories. It is my favorite. only the first half. I don't like doing the repeats. Dylan says Mike is right. Modern Warfare 2019 was the best shooter, is one of the best shooters

in this modern era of bad shooters. Battle Royals have ruined shooters too. You co-signed in that? I'm not co-signed in the second half, but I'm co-signed in the first half because you see it and you know it. Remember that. That would have made our top ten. That would have made our top ten.

Soul Must Die says now is the time to put DMC5 on the list. Adam F writes in with a birthday tax happy birthday Adam F they say life update my fiance and I moved from Arkansas to Portland

on the first thank you for the many years you all got me through in that miserable state Jesus nice the shots fired at that state damn I guess I never been to Arkansas
