Today in this offseason episode, we're playing kind of Futey.
Get ready for Game Showdown.
Yo, what's up?
Welcome to Game Showdown.
I'm your host, Blessing Adioia Jr.
And I'm joined by three contestants representing three teams.
We have Andy Cortez representing Team Purple.
Number one.
We got Greg Miller representing Team Orange.
Hello.
And we have your season one and your season two champion of Game Showdown.
Tim Geddes representing Team Blue.
Decide to have some fun. It's off season. I'm still going to win.
It's all about practice today.
Of course.
You know, shaking the dust off after season two.
Getting the reps in.
Getting the reps in for season three.
We'll talk about that much later. Not today.
Not today, but much later.
Where's the recount I asked for, right? I asked for a recount on the points from KDG for
season one, never got him. Season two never got them. What are you hiding blessed?
I don't like you invoking recounts during election season.
Stop the steal, everybody.
I feel like the time for that.
I need to find me 11,000 votes.
We're going to start off with a trivia question worth 10 points and the chance to go first in Kind of Feudy.
Contestants buzz in to answer.
This is another edition of List shit.
If you remember from the season finale of last season, we had, you have this show called Shitlist.
List shit is the reverse of it, right?
And so in shit list, you try to guess games that will be on a top 10 list.
In this round, I'm passing you with the reverse.
And so I'm going to list entries.
Did you win this one?
Yeah, well, now I remember it.
Now that you explained it, it was Bandai Namco games.
There you go.
I'm going to list entries into a top 10 list from 10 to 1.
It is your job to buzz in and guess what the top 10 topic is.
You can buzz in once per entry.
Contestants, are you ready?
Ready.
I don't like that Tim just did performance enhancing drugs.
I don't know what he snorted there, but he did something.
What did you take a hit of?
What was it?
He did this.
I'm ready.
Let's go.
I mean, rewind the tape, Katie.
I rubbed my eyes.
What do you put in his pocket?
It's weird he's wearing this shirt, I've never seen this shirt before.
What is it?
Is it a magic eye?
All the kind of feudy answers are on it?
What are you doing?
Every single time.
Now, this isn't a ranked list that we're doing, but it is ordered.
Okay.
All right, that's the only one I'm going to preface it.
At number 10, you got the Legend of Zelda, Majora's Mask.
That's your number 10.
Will you ever be like, don't?
Most off-the-wall sequels.
That is incorrect.
Thank you. Any where you ask?
Will you ever be like, no more guesses for you?
Um, well, we get one guess for entry.
Okay.
Well, no, I'm thinking like, you know.
So right now, some more guesses for Greg until I read the next one.
No, but I'm saying like, if he gets to number three and I've guessed three times,
it's like, all right, that's your third and final guess.
You're out now.
That won't happen.
I don't know where you're asking me right now.
Just you play in a game.
It'll become obvious.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You get one guess per game revealed.
Yeah.
So yeah, it's a top 10.
I'm more suggesting a rule.
I don't think you should be guessing every time is what I'm saying.
Every time they're right.
You can really guess what's for a game show.
Yeah, but like if we get to number seven and you're naming the seventh game and, you know,
maybe I decided not to guess any of those prior three rounds because I'm worried about wasting a guess.
So you want to bank your suggestions.
No, you can't.
No, we're not in mind.
I like the thought process.
There's some rules.
But no, that's a terrible idea.
I'm just going to buzz in every time then just say something.
Yes, that's the whole point.
You're supposed to.
But, you know, you know, maybe we don't have to do that.
Maybe fix things, you know, top season where it's.
You don't want to play the game?
Experimenting, yeah.
You're giving Tim more time to think I hate you.
To think!
A Zelda games.
That's incorrect.
Damn.
Tim, you got to guess?
Just best sequels.
That is incorrect.
At number nine, we got Final Fantasy 10.
What was the first one?
Majoris Mask.
As a reminder, this list isn't ranked, but it is ordered.
Andy Cortez.
Games with a big moon.
That is incorrect.
Okay.
I want to share it.
No moon.
I mean, they go hand in hand.
You tell me there hasn't been a moon in any final fantasy game.
After that, we got Grand Theft Auto Vice City.
So again, the first entry at the top, you had the Legend of Zelda Majoris Mask.
After that, you had Final Fantasy 10.
After that, you have Grandtift Auto Vice City.
Tim Gettys.
I feel like I'm wrong about something here.
But best games to come out in 2001?
That is incorrect.
Greg Miller.
Really good soundtracks.
That is incorrect.
Andy Cortez.
Best games of the 2000s.
That is incorrect.
Next up.
Star Wars, Knights of the Old Republic.
So again, it has been
The Legend of Zelda, Majores Mask, Final Fantasy 10,
Grand Theft Auto, Vice City.
Greg Miller.
Best games of that generation.
You know, the PS2, Xbox 1, that era.
And 64.
I know.
I'm playing loose with it.
They crossed over a bit.
I knew it didn't come out 2001 either.
That is incorrect.
So again, you have Zelda Majores Mask, Final Facey 10, Grants with Auto, Vice City, and Star Wars, Knights of the Old Republic, in that order.
Next up.
Metal Gear Solid 3, Snake Eater.
Wow.
It's fun looking at chat, because I think I see somebody in chat has it.
I keep my life.
I love that I can't find any
Kevin Bacon
do it all, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Next in the list,
Resident Evil 4.
So again, Zelda Majors Mask, Final Fantasy
10, TTA, Vice City,
Star Wars 90, the Old Republic,
Metal Gear Sal, Three, Snake Eater, Resident Evil 4,
Greg Miller.
I'm not going to get the adjective right,
but best console exclusives.
We're talking exclusives.
That is incorrect.
I think you move your head
more.
This next one, this fun one.
Bully.
Bully is the entry in this list after Res.
Res. Neal Evil 4.
Damn.
Greg Miller.
Best, you know, that like broke
the mold for the franchise.
Greg Miller?
That is incorrect. Thank you. I appreciate you.
Appreciate you, too.
I wish I could wear a mocha sweatshirt like,
blessed is.
It looks so good. Is that what we call
mocha? I can see the mocha in it.
Tim will call a burnt orange because he's an idiot.
Probably like my most complimented sweatshirt.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thank you.
And number three.
I guess next in this list I'd say it.
Be careful though once because my...
Be careful, all right.
Just be careful.
Be careful.
Is that a threat?
A long, long time ago, my mom was getting out of her car in the dark.
And she was wearing a jacket that had those kind of balls at the end of them, you know, on the strings there of the thing.
And I got caught in her car.
And it was so dark that when it came...
She didn't realize what it was caught on wherever.
She yanked back.
if I'm lying I'm dying
it came back the ball hit her in the eye
shattered her contact drove it into her eye
she almost went blinded that eye
yeah
so just be careful
a lot of
a lot of bad things
that was like crazy Jamie Kennedy
Lord Trump what the fuck
I'm gonna cut these things off now
Jesus
the fun destination shit
what was the last game I said
uh
bullies evil
okay next up is Halo 3
Halo 3 is the next game after bully
all of these are
equals except for Knights of the Old Republic.
Is that bully?
Oh, and bully, yeah.
After Halo 3,
Fallout 3.
That's the ninth game listed on this list.
This fallout 3.
The final game,
Greg Miller.
This counts as the last one, not this new one.
Correct. Where you play is the bad guy.
That is incorrect.
Thank you.
Our final game on this list,
our 10th game here, uncharted to among thieves.
So starting at the top of,
you guys each have one chance left to guess here starting at the top you have
Zelda Majores mask final fantasy 10 GTA by city star wars knights of the old
republic metal year solid three snake eater resin evil four bully halo three fallout three
uncharted two among thieves not a ranked list but it is an ordered list um
Tim Geddes games that have received tens that is incorrect um Andy Cortez games that have
No, anytime we mentioned an era,
Bless always gave us a look of like,
I don't think that that's right,
and I'm not going to give you that answer.
That's what I was reading.
Anytime we gave a 90s answer or like a 2000 answer,
he was like a, no, it was like a,
he was thinking I don't want to give that to him.
But there's a time thing here.
There's something going on with time.
There's a time here thing here.
I think we're in the same.
Have you answered?
I'll say best games of the 20th century.
That is incorrect.
Greg Miller.
10 games that came out after the assassination of JFK.
Oh, that's a good one.
That is incorrect.
Damn.
Meaning nobody got the correct answer for this one.
No, November, 1963.
Put it in there.
11-11, make a wish.
Andy, you were knocking on the door for this one.
And you were right that earlier on you said the best games of the 2000s,
and you almost had it, but not specific enough for me.
to give it to you. What it is
is the best game from each year
of the 2000s. And so
starting with Legend of the Legend of Zolid
Major's Mask, I believe that's the best game from 2000.
You then go to Final Fantasy 10, which is 2001,
GTA Vice City, which is 2002,
Nicolian Republic, 03, Melisselaer 3, Snake Eater,
04, Reson Eagle 4, 05,
bully 06, Halo 3, 07,
Fallout 3, 09, or sorry, 08,
and then Uncharted 2 among thieves
being the best game of 09.
That is one from the gamer.com.
Really good.
Holy in 06.
Yeah, right?
The fuck else came out that year.
It was a very dark year.
It was a dark year.
Nobody gets the 10 points for that one, unfortunately.
So we're going to start this off on even footing.
Remember, ladies gentlemen, this is Game Showdown.
Kind of Funnies Nerdy Game Show that you can watch live right here on Twitch and on YouTube.
If you love what you do, support us with the Kind of Funny membership on Patreon or YouTube to get all

Thank you to our Patreon producers, Delaney Twining, and Carl Jacobs.
Today are brought to you by New World Eternalm, Phasmophobia, Marvel Snap, and Shady
Rays, but I'll tell you about that later.
For now, let's play Kind of Feudy.
The rules are simple.
I've surveyed over 1,500 members of the Kind of Funny audience on a number of prompts.
Each round, I'm going to read to you a prompt, and we'll ask each of you which answer
you think the kind of funny best friends gave the most.
I've narrowed down to five answers per prompt
if you give the correct answer the more popular
the answer, the more points you'll receive.
For example, I might ask you to name an
incredible open world game. If Greg
says The Witcher and it's number one, they'll net him 50 points.
If Tim says Fallout and it's number two,
they'll net him 40 points. If Andy says GTA
and that's number three, they'll net him 30 points and so on
and so forth. Each player
will get a max of two guesses per round. Last
place goes first after the first round.
Whoever gets the most points after five rounds wins.
And there is a secret
answer hidden in one of the rounds.
It's not one of the top five answers, but
if you happen to get it, it is worth five
points and the chance
to guess again.
What tragedy is he thinking about?
No, he just said, he pulled the Nick
Scarpino that one time that Nick drank too
much energy drink, and Nick was just looking at his
hands during a podcast. I have elegant
fingers.
What is that mean?
What is...
What is chilly, right? Like, I feel like
they have good definition, right? Like, I need
to shave the hair on top of them, but I could do
some stuff here. I can see from here.
You're right? Like, seeing you at the back side, you look in this.
Look at that. But when it's not
chilly, they look different. I have elegant.
You know, it's like, you know, they're constricted, right?
Yeah, yeah. When they when it's like, they're thinner
because it's cold.
So elegant is the opposite of thinner?
No, they're thin right now because I'm cold.
They're out. They look elegant. You know what I see.
I get what you mean. Okay. Thank you.
Probably someone does. Think of a good candelabra.
You know, what I got going on.
Lumiere
From beauty of the east
Let's start off with round number one
Name and activity
You might do in a yakuza
Slash like a dragon game
Who gets to go first?
We're going to start off with our season one and two champion
Tim Gettys
Go get him.
Karaoke.
Tim says karaoke.
Karaoke is our 50 point
answer with a strong start for Tim
Andy Cortez.
There's so many.
I love these games as Roger knows.
we all play these games
I'm going to go with
racing
there's cart racing
this is what you said it's killed me I don't know why
and he says racing
racing
is not on the list
can I just get the phrase you say activities
name and activity you might do in a yakuza game
or like a dragon
I have two
three and the problem is I want to combine
one into two.
How, how,
you think you got them?
You think you got some stuff?
I'll say batting cages here then.
You're gonna go to do the batting cages.
Okay.
Greg says batting cages.
Batting cages is not on the list.
Tim Geddes are back to you.
I'm gonna say fight.
That's true.
That's a good one actually, yeah.
Tim Getty says fight.
Fight is our 30 point answer.
So it's not just like side quest stuff.
It's just like, just play the video game.
Read.
Based on reading.
Yeah, based on how our viewers answer it.
I'm going to go with that one thing that was kind of viral for a bit,
like Pokemon collecting sort of minigame side game.
Sure, good answer.
I don't know what they call it, though.
Andy says the Pokemon collecting midigames side game,
that is not on the list.
So then since I'm the last answer,
and this is off-season.
We're just playing ball here.
I want to say hostess club slash dating,
but I'm not sure if those would be put in the same category.
I'll probably separate those.
Really?
Yeah.
Then I'm going to say host club.
The hostess, go to the host club.
Bowling?
Greg says hostess club.
Hostess club is not on the list.
Dating is that?
No.
Neither on the list.
It obviously didn't matter, but, you know.
I appreciate that.
Do you ever play pool in these games?
I don't know if you play pool and pool is not on the list.
Is it gotcha machines, arcades?
What are they putting in that?
I mean, I know all the actual.
If you had said gotcha machine, I might have given it to you because our 40s.
point answer is Gamble. Oh, okay.
Which I guess gotcha machine and gamble might be a bit separated.
Yeah, you're getting into like, you know, you want to be like the government with loot boxes.
That's, you know, it's good winly. Exactly. Our 20 point answer, go to the arcade, which I guess
also gotcha machine could fall under. And then our 10 point answer is play mahjong.
Wow. Yeah. Apparently a lot of mages are so much higher than most of those activities. Not
karaoke. Karaoke is the star activity and fighting as well. Good answers, Tim. Thank you. Yeah,
with that, Tim got the 30 point answer with fight. Tim got the 50 point answer.
with karaoke putting Tim in the lead with 80 points.
I figured it all out why I don't like this shirt Tim's wearing.
Because it looks like when you see a DNA sequencer,
like when you see the DNA and like you're watching a true crime show
and they have the DNA.
But it looks like a lot of people's DNA.
So it looks like the codex from Venom 3.
And I don't like that one.
Oh, man.
Ben 3 is still strong in our minds.
I also don't know what he's talking about.
I still worry about it.
I watched Venom 3 last night.
I don't remember this.
True crime shows.
No.
Round number two.
Hungry.

Love it. Great answer. Great questions. We're going to start off with Andy Cortez.
I'm just going to go with what I know. Cody Rhodes. Great answer. That's the only one that I know.
Andy says Cody Rhodes. Cody Rhodes is our 20 point answer.
They call him the American nightmare. Nightmare. I was going to say Dream and I was like, that's his dad.

i don't know people read into common nomenclature i thought for sure
that it was between two and i was like which one's great gonna give me sure

I'll toss that.
I think I'm going to say John Cena.
Greg says John Sina.
John Sina is the 50 point answer.
I was shocked that Andy didn't have John Sina in the tuck.
Damn, that's good.
Great calling Bambayette.
Tim Gettys.

30 point answer.

Our 50-point answer, Ossalot.
That one's on you guys.
Yeah, that is. That is, admittedly on us.
However, Andy did get the 20-20.
40 was quiet.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, sorry.
Andy got the 20-point answer with Gray Fox.
Andy also got the 30 point answer with
Ryden, which brings us
putting quiet at the high is fucking insane.
I really like her story.
Like that's fucking crazy.
Hey, should we put a woman on this list?
Yeah, put the one who's in a bikini
and can't speak on it, please.
That's what I think it should be.
Let her pose in the helicopter.
Take a long, hard look in your fucking mirror
tonight before you go to bed in your parents' basement gamers.
Good boy, man.
Round number four.
Put that on input.
Greg Miller destroys gamers.
Round number four, name a game or franchise published by Bandai Namco.
Moving day.
Name a game or franchise, excuse me, published by Bandai Namco.
We're going to start off with Greg Miller.
And for context, this is a poll that was put out again around GDC time.
So keep that in mind.
This is a spring pool.
I understand where you drive.
and I appreciate that.
I'm still going to say Eldon Ring.
Fuck.
Big.
Greg says,
Eldon Ring.
Eldon Ring is our 50 point answer.
Andy Cortez.
Dark Souls.
Andy says Dark Souls.
Dark Souls is our 40 point answer.
Tim Geddes.
You're putting me in a bad spot here.
I'm going the other end.
I'm going to say Pac-Man.
That's good.
That's good.
Tim says Pac-Dep.
Pac-Man. Pac-Man is our 20-point answer.
Got some points. All I needed.
And we're back to Greg.
Armored Corps. Armored Corps.
Armored Corps is not on the list.
We're to that point where you could get, you know what I mean.
There's not a great answer.
Yeah.
Even though you're probably about that.
Tim will have a great answer.
No, I wrote the fucking answers on his shirt.
I won't, yeah.
You got to blur your eyes.
You got out of focus of him.
I hate how much Gia helps them with these answers.
shirts she makes.
The narrative.
What happened in Mexico, Tim?
She takes a perfectly nice white collar shirts,
putting all the lines on there making it perfect.
She's getting those perfect quilts out in Mexico.
I would say Dark Souls 3.
How about that?
Put it on there.
He said it.
Andy says Dark Souls 3.
Dark Souls 3 is not...
Dang.
Was it the question of franchise?
Yeah, franchise.
It's a game war franchise.
Oh,
too bad.
He bricked it.
And so I was honestly gonna push back
and be like,
you answered Dark Souls,
but honestly,
because it says Game War franchise,
theoretically it could have been on here.
So,
Tim,
your final answer for this one.
I'm gonna say Dragon Ball.
That's great.
Dragon Ball.
That's the last one, right?
Yeah.
I would say,
I was,
yeah, it was like that or Naruto,
right?
Dragon Ball is our 10 point answer.
Did me?
And was the main reason I wanted to
preface that this was out in the spring.
Because I feel like if this was a recent poll,
I could see Dragon Ball being even higher
with all the Zichites right now.
Have we said any secret answers?
No secret answers?
Dang.
With that, Tim got the 10-point answer with Dragon Ball.
Tim got the 20-point answer with Pac-Man.
Nobody got the 30-point answer, Tekken.
Ah.
I was very surprised to hear no Tekken.
Yeah.
Andy got the 40-point answer with Dark Souls
and Greg got the 50-point answer
with Eldon Ring, which brings us
to our fifth and final round.
Round number five.
Name a non-marvel video game character
who would make a great Avenger.
Name a non-marvel video game character
who would make a great adventure.
It's just, you know, blue skies out there.
You put whatever you want to there.
We're going to start off with Andy Cortez.
A non-marvel video game character.
Correct.
Name a non-marvel video game character.
What the fuck?
It's so great a great event.
Name a video game character.
The guy from heavy rain.
Let's see here.
What was his son's name?
They kept yelling?
Sean.
Jason.
Well, yeah.
Sean to begin with it was Jason.
Jason.
John.
Ethan Morris, never forget.
Um, let's see.
Madison Page, remember that?
They had a hot sex scene if you played it right.
Man, when you said, of course, there was no physics back then.
So it was just these weird bodies.
You saw the nips five seconds.
It was crazy.
A great time.
Let's see here.
You ever think about how much
these buzzers look like nipples?
Can you read it one more time,
Bus?
I don't know if the audience at home
can see it.
I got that black dot right there
in the center.
Oh, is that?
Okay, I was trying to figure out
what part of this is a nipple.
Yeah.
Can you read it one more time for me,
Buzz?
Name a non-marvel video game character
who would make a great Avenger.
A non-marvel video game character.
I'm going to say,
Superman.
Oh shit!
That is a risk.
Andy says Superman.
All right.
Superman is not on the...
How many Superman games are you playing?
Well, I mean, he's in an injustice.
He's in Kill the Justice League.
You know, recency.
I don't know.
I was going with just a powerful superhero.
Greg Miller.
God, that's fucks up.
That fucks up a lot of thinking.
That fucks up everything I had on the board.
Maybe it shouldn't.
I know.
Maybe it shouldn't.
But like, again.
we got these
women hate
white gamers out there voting
on this
you know what I mean
shit fuck
I think if
we're all going to co-op this
Tim you're going to win this
but we're all going to co-op this
we love you
we're going to go with the strategy right now
that we go with so many questions
name the popular game
link from Zelda or whatever from Mario
or whatever it's just like name a
now it's just name a popular
whatever from Mario
Yeah.
I'm gonna, I think Andy hit, it's like when you're eating the ice cream, right?
And you think it's just vanilla and then you hit that fudge fane.
I'm gonna say Batman.
Yeah, a million great games.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Toss his ass in there.
His parents are dead.
Greg said Batman.
Batman is our 30.
Yeah, there it is.
Yeah, there it is.
There it is.
I hate you, people.
That is an insane.
The fact that he specifically calls out.
video game character. Yeah.
That's explaining something, people.
Batman in the Arkham series.
Thank you, Barry.
I'm sorry your shirt wasn't up to date on that one.
It's a schooner.
Let's have a missing
stitches.
Tim Getty's. Super Mario.
Tim Getty says,
Super Mario.
Super Mario.
Not on the list.
No Mario.
Fuck.
Okay.
Andy, we're back to you.
That changes.
Just for context.
seal it in with his next guess.
And I got two good answers.
It's him whoops again, I guess.
Okay, you have two good answers.
I hope you get one of them to, you know, just to let me know.
If one of it was a bad answer.
Like to put you on the right trail?
No.
I can't decide between these two.
Okay.
There's no fudge vein here.
I'm gonna say
I'm gonna say
Samis
Andy says Samis
I just don't know
Samis
Not on the list
Is our 10 point answer
That's shocking
Well of course they put the woman on dead last
Yeah the one they didn't even know was one
If we do this they can't accuse us
They're at their little playing meetup
Yeah
Deciding how they're going to vote.
Greg Miller.
Oh, fuck.
Do you have an answer to him?
I have an answer that.
Yeah.
And it's 50 and 40 are open, right?
50 and 40 are open.
Fuck.
Roman, Roman bellic.
I'm going to go against, I'm going to go against my heart and go with a head answer.
John Madden.
Which might be a terrible one, but I'm going to do it, okay?
And I'm going to say Snake, Metal Gear.
Yeah.
Greg Miller says.
snake from Metal Gear
Snake
is not
on the list
I'll be really hurting off my hard answers there
Tim Master Chief
Oh okay yeah that's good
Tim says Master Chief
Master Chief is our 20 point
All right I couldn't have mattered anyway
So now I'm okay no one
I'm just thinking magical people
Who are magical people in video games?
Hey co-op this one I mean the game's over
But you can help me yeah
Co-op this one I was debating was
Solid Snake for Metal Gear or
Cole from Infamous, but I don't
know how much of that's me skewing being a
Infamous fan. But I do think the audience
knows superhero games. Is Cole from Infamous?
What about the dude? Coal from Infismus is the 40 point answer.
Damn. What about the, that would have tied you with Tim.
I would have got 180 and he would have gotten the master
chief. Yeah. Someone's sick that would be on the Avengers that has like an iconic
weapon and like magic and shit? Cloudstrive.
That's what I was going to be my first guess.
Was it not on the list? Not on list.
What about the guy from the darkness?
Remember him?
I was like,
Tony or Frankie or whatever the fuck was him?
Cloudstripe was our seventh place answer.
There were 33 votes for Cloudstripe.
Where was Roman Reins?
I don't know if Roman Reigns is on this one.
No, no, no, I'm talking about it in the wrestling question.
Oh, did I, I, I know.
I was very, I was very surprised.
Roman Reigns was not in that topic.
Roman Reins was nowhere even close.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
In the wrestling one, our sixth place answer was Undertaker with 46 wins.
And then under that was Triple H.
Under that was Brock Lesner.
Under that was Ray Mysterio, and then under that was CN Punk.
Damn.
Yeah.
How have none of you got, like, even thrown out the name for the number one answer for this final question?
Yeah, I'm shocked none of you guys have guessed this one.
Like, shocked.
Do you want it?
Yeah.
Cratos.
Crados is the number one video game pick for the event.
I don't know because the Thor.
Like, he basically has the same hours of this lore, I guess.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't like Batman.
He works alone.
Remember Batman and Robin.
He has a kid.
No Superman on that list?
Anywhere?
Not even, yeah.
No, because after that,
again, six-place answer was Ratchet somehow.
Our seventh-place answer was cloud,
and then under that was A-loy.
Which I like, kind of like a Hawkeye.
That's where I was thinking with the Metal Gear thing, right?
Of, like, he's like Black Widow.
He's like Hawkeye.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm surprised not see much as, yeah,
no solid chief in the top five.
But I look at the top five,
and I'm like, that could make a good team
between Cretos, Cole, Batman,
Matt's Chief, and Sammis.
I don't know what threat they're fighting,
but.
Me a moody.
They got it coming.
With that,
Barrett, what's the final score?
The final score still in last place,
but got it to the triple digits.
It was won Andy Cortez for Team Purple with 120 points.
In second place, he almost had it.
But he didn't go with his heart.
It was Greg Miller with Team Orange with 140 points.
And the winner of this offseason episode of Kind of Funny Game Show.
It is our season one and two two time champion Tim Geddes for team blue with 200 points.
Take out the shirt.
What does it know? What is the shirt? No.
What does it know?
Bear, can you put a blue filter over it?
You put up in like 3D red and blue glasses.
Going back to previous rounds, of course, I asked you to give me the name of a metal gear solid character,
a side character who could star in their own game, going down the list.
That's where our secret answer was hidden.
was hidden. The number six voted
answer was sniper wolf, which probably would have been
my answer. A sniper wolf game would be fucking sick.
That was our sixth place with 48 votes. According to the
audience, she talks too much. Yeah. Under that
was Psycho Mantis with 46
votes. Under that was the boss
with 45 votes. Very close voting here.
Under that was Merrill with
44 votes. One vote less than the boss.
And then under that was Liquid with 23
votes from the audience.
Going back even
further, I already
named you the wrestling ones. And then, yeah, the
The last one I have here is for activities in yakuza slash slack a dragon.
Our sixth place answer would have been cart racing with 31 votes.
Under that is bowling, which is also tied with dancing, each with 23 votes,
which are also tied with darts.
Darts also had 23 votes there.
Michael Jordan's number?
Michael Jordan.
Michael Jordan's number, 23.
Oh, I see where you're going there.
Ladies gentlemen, that does bring us to the end of today's episode of Game Showdown.
Another kind of Feudy edition.
Congratulations, Tim Gedding.
Thank you very much.
Feels good. Of course, this has been Game Showdown, your nerdy trivia show.
Get in there, Andy. We'll be back in the future with another episode. Not next week,
because I'm out next week. But you'll see us later. After this, we're playing some college
deed. We're having a good time. Until next time, it's been our pleasure to serve you.
