Dude, I'm fucking telling you, I was buying my Kendrick Lamar tickets and he just burst out of my screen and tried selling me a poster. I'm on. Cameron. Okay. Few things. First of all, no one fucking cares that you're going to see Kendrick, okay? Stop fucking talking about it.

Dude, that goofy ass accent in your phone's microphone is not fucking helping. If we're going to talk about this, can you at least get on your fucking computer?

And this one will be too. Let me fucking do the intro.

Hey guys, just remember, if we don't talk over each other, we'll always be better. As always, I am your host, Avery, but you might know me better as shammy i'm joined today as always by the lovely audio boy david it's me he's everyone's favorite oh wow that's false the mystery the international man of mystery, Cameron. Hey. Hi. And fan voted least homosexual member of the podcast, Kyle. Fan voted. Fan voted.

Yeah, no, they decided. That is actually true. I'm sorry, Cameron. I'm sorry. This is how. Yeah, I fucking. It's how it's determined. I know. I just, I was hoping for that top spot at Top Gay, but fucking...

Top Gay. No, Top Gay is still David. You outgayed me, though, so congratulations there. Nice. Yeah, man. I win. All right. Shall we start talking about fucking three E's?

E. E. With the E, the most E out of all of them. Shall we start talking about fucking three E's? Eeeeee Eeeeee With the E, the most E out of all of them. We should start talking about E by talking about EAP EAPlay Can I just talk about I I wrote a preface is that what it's called? Uh preface? Oh you have a preface?

What do you look at? Okay What I don't know I'm not such a cunt you are a cunt what the fuck i because i was um because i was thinking hang on maybe that's why the word cunt is socially acceptable to say over there because everyone is one i am before watching the ea conference i i wrote wrote my thoughts before watching E3. And my thoughts were basically that I wrote something along the lines of, I think that the cynicism around E3 is a bit too much and people should be more positive.

And then I watched EA. There's a limit with the cynicism around E3. Oh, my fucking God. I just want to know, David, you fucked me up. Because just before I started watching EA Play, David's like, oh, yeah, I've heard rumors that they're going to announce Skate 4. And that's a very big possibility. And I was like, I did not give a shit about EA Play before that.

Then you said that to me. I got so fucking excited. I was so ready. What? big possibility and i was like that like i did not give a shit about ea play before that then you said that to me i got so fucking excited i was like so ready what i was so ready for skate four and oh it hurt is skate for a big release like is that yes yes it was it was okay no it wasn't that's a session session session is very far ahead of ourselves already this is not ea play oh my god that was a kick-started that was a kick-started game it's made by the developers made by the devs who came by yeah i've heard three though well i mean i say that i heard that from ed and ed just says things sometimes so i've not verified that that is true uh yeah ea and talk about ea yeah can we talk about anything else before we talk about the

the big thing did i fall in order thing they did so did i fall in all being announced in the fucking crowd yeah and it's only the name of the game. Like, just don't bother. Just straight up don't bother. Yeah, that was really bizarre. Do you think that EA had the worst conference? Yes. No, wait. Because I think somebody else had a worse conference. I think it might have been a tie. I think it might have been a tie.

Do you guys want to open with who we thought had the best and worst conferences? Yeah, that's a good idea. Who had the best in y'all's opinions? Xbox. Xbox. Okay. Who are the best in y'all's opinions? Xbox. Xbox. Xbox. Kyle? Xbox.

Yeah. Who are the worst? Yeah. Tiny Build. I didn't watch the Tiny Build one. It was not... I don't think

it should count because it was like a meme. It was like a 15-minute meme video with a game at the end okay well it probably probably doesn't count because none of us watched it and we weren't told to yeah that's true well i mean on i think the worst is ea because of the thing yeah ea is pretty bad i think ea but but the thing is it's it's tied with betesda for me EA is tied with Bethesda for me

EA Bethesda's was pretty bad it's so weird because I went online I didn't think Bethesda was too awful but the thing is when you determine worst press conference do you mean one that upset you the most or most pointless

why did Square Enix have a conference Square Enix have a conference? Square Enix shouldn't have had a conference at all. It was like 10 minutes of trailers that were already shown at other fucking press conferences. There was no point. Actually, no, there was one review. To be honest, I don't think Nintendo should have either.

The Quiet Man. You don't think Nintendo should have when they revealed all of the Smash characters and Ridley? I mean, I don't know. The whole conference is... Okay, anyways, we'll save that for later. Yeah, we'll talk about that later. Who was your worst one, Kyle? Did you say it?

I would say it was probably EA. EA. Man, I get like... I was never into... Wait, we can talk about it now. Wait, no, actually, I say Sony was worse. What?

No, no, no. No, Kyle. No way. This is your, I hope, a way out fails of this episode, isn't it? It's like that guy with the banjo, fuck him. Who's this fucking weeb with his goddamn flute? out of here i've i've got i've got two notes that i just want to share about ea play that i wrote down and they're both like guttural reactions the first one is why is this an esport and the second one is why is this an esport part

two because like they showed one after the other, just, like, an esports champion from Madden who looks like fucking... Like, he's like... They got him on stage, he's like, yeah, I missed out on going to school so I could win... I was chasing that money in Madden. And then the second one was... So...

Yeah. The second one, my guttural reaction was, why is this being commentated on? And my second reaction was, oh no! I don't realize what it was. Mine was like, I immediately called it. I immediately said Command & Conquer. Well, we need to acknowledge that not everyone who listens to this podcast has watched E3,

so we should explain what the fuck we're talking about. Command & Conquer Arrivals. It's a mobile game. They took the command and conquer license and after a fucking decade of doing nothing with it they're releasing a free to play mobile rts can you hear the fucking the worst part the worst part wasn't i mean it's pretty bad already the worst part is how they fucking announced it. The worst part is that they put the name Command and Conquer on it.

Yeah. There's literally no reason to do that other than to fucking piss people off. They did. Why did they fucking announce it? The thing about calling this Command and Conquer, like you could call this fucking

Everybody's Happy Missile Launcher or some fucking stupid shit. I don't this fucking Everybody's Happy Missile Launcher or some fucking stupid shit. I don't care. Everybody's Happy Missile Launcher? That sounds like a real game in Japan. It might be. But there's no... You stand to gain nothing by calling this Command & Conquer. Literally nothing.

The franchise is already long gone now. No, but the thing is, it's not even that it's long gone. It's that anyone who has played or but the thing is it's not even that it's long gone it's that anyone who has played or recognizes the name or cares about the name command and conquer is not gonna there's no crossover between people who are going to play this command and conquer rivals shit yeah you know what fucking pissed me off the most about it though is that the most gameplay like the longest gameplay demo we saw out of all of EA Play was a fucking mobile game

it was 8 minutes long and like Anthem's being released like fucking early next year like they could have shown like a big demo of that I forgot EA had I forgot about Anthem entirely exactly I forgot about it as well they spent like such oh god I did write a

few notes about Anthem because I thought it looked like Iron Man on the Xbox. Yeah, I saw your tweet, and I was like, Jesus Christ. That game doesn't look... It looks boring. It looks really... It looks boring.

It looks... I mean... It looks a lot like Destiny. Because the game world is beautiful, but it looks boring and generic in a weird way. Not in a weird way. It looks generic and it looks like Destiny way. They have the sassy ghost.

The dialogue in the trailer was so bad that I actually tweeted out a snarky tweet about gamer dialogue, fake gamer dialogue, and then I deleted it because I realized, oh, fuck, this isn about gamer dialogue fake gamer dialogue and then i deleted it because i realized oh fuck this isn't gamer dialogue this is the game yeah i think that's what i thought i thought it was gamer dialogue i also thought it was gamer dialogue also the other thing about it that they announced was like oh yeah we're gonna have only like the story content split off from the actual game content and then like you make decisions back yeah this

is like part of one of their talking points the uh the like all of your decision making is going to happen in the hub world which is a single player only hub so you have like all these characters and make decisions back there but they actually don't have any real effect on the actual world just within that hub they have an effect oh so they're like splitting off the gameplay like from the narrative almost completely and then like obviously they'll have like a dialogue during missions but there's no like choices or anything you can do actually while you're doing a mission all the choices will happen back at your base and that's really concerning i thought they said something about like there you could like there was a way to impact the multiplayer world but I don't think there is

the only thing I saw on twitter was that you won't be able to fuck the aliens and yeah there's no relationships it's only like so this game is already a zero from me although it does have your player talking so that's an up on destiny

wow that player can talk I guess Anthem wins. That's one of the dumbest fucking things about Destiny. That's a whole other fucking conversation. I want to talk about one game though because there was only one game that interested me. Sea of Solitude. Looks interesting.

Holy shit. It looks sick. EA Originals are great. It's great what they're doing with them. Yeah. Actually, credit where it's due. That is actually a really good thing that EA has been doing. Yes.

The only good thing. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, Yarny 2. Yarny 2 looks cool. That was a nice reveal. I didn't care about Yarny. I didn't care about the yarn unraveled.

Also, all of the developers who were on stage seemed like actually genuinely they seemed to really care. So, yeah. I mean, the developers, sorry about the, sorry about EA. Sorry about the publisher. And I'm sorry about all of the people who are snarking about you and your products on

podcasts, but we're still going to do it. Does anybody have anything else to say about EA? I just have a question about the Star Wars. Yeah, what's up? Like, Respawn has it? What do you guys think of that? Yeah, Respawn has it. I'm excited to see what it is,

but we just saw nothing. I mean, there was no info. It was just like... It was literally a title. We don't even know what the logo looks like. It was literally... The only thing they did was like brace for info in 2019 it was like an announcement that there would be information at at some point in the future yeah which is the theme this e3 by the way it certainly was wasn't it who made the uh who made battlefront oh that was dice right that was that was DICE, right? That was DICE. Are they still making it?

It's EA. EA owns the Star Wars license for games. But I'm saying, will DICE still make more Star Wars? Yeah, of course. Because they sell a shit ton. Battlefront 2 was not a financial success. It didn't meet expectations, but it still

sold over a million copies in the first week, I'm pretty sure. It still sold well, just didn't meet their expectations. The thing is, we don't know how many refunds there were, and Origin is like they give out refunds super, yeah. So we don't know.

Maybe it was worse than people think. Alright, shall we talk about Xbox? I'm excited that it's going to be fun wars. I think that's about it. There's not really much to talk about in E3 other than, not E, what? EA, other than what the fuck are they doing? Like, what are they fucking doing?

It wasn't nothing. It was at least, like, I mean, apart from the mobile game and the Madden thing, it was wasn't nearly as, like, terribly put together as it was last year. Who was the lady that they had on? What was her... She did a better job than the host last year.

But that's about it. She did. Jesse Wallens wasn't there. There was a really weird moment where she was talking to a random guy about I think Battlefield. Oh, the camera kept on panning into it

yeah and she kept teasing him and the guy the guy looked so fucking uncomfortable it made me die inside of it that was most things though a lot of things yes all right dying inside what's next oh yeah wait no never mind that's a bad transition because we're talking about the xbox speaking of okay can. Speaking of, okay, can we talk about one thing first? Can we talk about Halo Infinite and, like, ooh, I'm really interested.

I'm interested. Did you see, did you read the thing on Halo Waypoint about it? No, I did not. Oh, okay. Do you know what it is? Do you have any idea what Halo Infinite is? It's Halo 6. Halo Infinite is Halo 6. Yeah. I didn know what it is? Do you have any idea what Halo Infinite is? It's Halo 6. Halo Infinite is Halo 6. I thought it was like they're

kind of teasing that it's going to be open world. Well, it looks like they're teasing big open levels again. No, if you read the thing on Waypoint, what they talk about is they talk about they're looking to try and bring halo back down to its

roots because they realize like hey we made a lot of really drastic changes to the formula of this game yeah david david are you serious right now you asked you you were one of the people who asked me what this was i'm sorry you kind of muted you muted your mic you could have muted your mic you could have done anything you could have leaned away from it it's not a headset take a fucking laugh laugh David

you don't deserve to hear this I'm actually really interested because I didn't realize that they did a waypoint about it it's basically them talking they're talking about how they're bringing the art style back. They're not bringing the art style back all the way to the original trilogy because if you look at it, the Mark VI armor

does look kind of different. But they said, we recognize that this direction we're taking, we've been taking the games in has not been entirely well received and we recognize that a lot of that is because this is not the direction that we think, retroactively,

Halo should have gone in. So, Halo 6... Two games too late. Halo 6 takes place at least partially on a Halo ring, and they're bringing... It seems like they're bringing back big open levels like the opening of halo one and i'm very interested it's the only thing they could have done that would have made me

interested in halo 6 you see like my guttural reaction was like oh no it's going to be an open world game because that's no like the fact that they changed it from it's not halo 6 it's halo infinite and like the fact that it was like big open, and you saw the fucking animals and shit. Yeah. Well, there were animals in Reach. Yeah, I know, but it was like a herd, like a huge herd. I don't know. But hearing that makes me a little bit more...

I think what we're going to be seeing is we're going to be seeing levels with several different objectives that you can do in any order like you used to have in Halo Halo 1 at least Halo 1 had Halo 1 only had like one level that was like that but still it's like a really iconic level from the first Halo

but yeah I'm very much interested in Halo it's the only thing they possibly could have done to make me interested in Halo 6 distance it as much as possible from Halo 5 yeah see yeah I thought the name change was

in the same vein as another game that had a number removed or added um yeah the new from game looks fucking amazing oh my god it really does it looks so cool the new from game

from software shadows die twice the movement looks so fun oh god I don't have anything interesting they did say that it's... I don't have anything interesting to say about this. It just looks amazing.

It's not an RPG. It's not an RPG. It's going to be action-adventure. Oh, really? Well, that's what... Isn't that what Bloodborne was? No. No, Bloodborne is an RPG.

Okay. Definitely. You have to level up and stuff like that. And I've avoided most information about Bloodborne because I want to play it. Okay. But... Well, it just looks fucking amazing. The movement... It just looks fun. And I've avoided most information about Bloodborne because I want to play it. Okay. But, uh... It just looks fucking amazing. The movement.

It just looks fun. Just jumping and zipping around. Oh, my God. I'm excited. God, I was like, at the start, I was like, man, is this Nioh 2? Dude, I have that in my... That's in my notes. It's in my notes as well.

I'm excited to play Nioh 2 in Nioh 2. And, oh, don't forget about the other Nioh 2. That's in my notes! It's in my notes as well. I'm excited to play Nioh 2 and Nioh 2. And, oh, don't forget about the other Nioh 2. That's what I... I think I called... No, I mean, no, there was three Nioh games. There's three... Oh, so you're talking... Okay, that one...

Rise of the Planet of the... What? I don't know. What did you just say? What's the fucking... I don't remember. What did you just say? What's the fucking... I don't remember. It's Ghosts of Onishimiya. Ghosts of Tsushima.

Yeah, sure. Who cares? Tsushima, that one. Tsushima. Oh, it's Tsushima. I thought... Never mind. Isn't that T-Siren?

Also, that game's not a soul... That game's not soulsy at all. I know, but it's like just another samurai game that's gonna be coming out more soon. No, oh, yeah. But there was a white weeb at the beginning

and Neo is all about white weebs that's true okay but we're getting we're getting so far yeah is there anything else got announced Far Cry 5 what?

Devil May Cry 5 oh Devil May Cry 5 I was gonna say what the fuck I heard Far Cry 5? What? Devil May Cry 5? Oh, Devil May Cry 5. I was gonna say, what the fuck? I heard Far Cry, yeah. Was I the only person who thought that was like, the DMC? No, you were not. I thought about that for a second and I started laughing

so hard. I started laughing very hard as well. And then they brought out the guy and then he started talking about Devil May Cry 4 and I'm like, oh, so that's not Dante. I realized pretty quickly that that was not that was not new Dante.

For a second I thought it was new new Dante. They were doing another reboot. It's Nero. You can tell because he has the missing arm. And he's Nero. Because Dante's at the end of the trailer. I mean, there was no gameplay but it was an amazing trailer

they've shown gameplay at the conference yes it was in the trailer there was gameplay it just didn't have HUD there was no HUD

there it is. Okay, never mind. Yeah, I never played the D&D. I'm interested. It'll be interesting to see if they can keep up the fluidity of the gameplay with that kind of design.

I don't know. I don't really have anything to say other than that I'm gassed for it. I think that's going to happen a lot. I don't really have a lot of things than that I'm gassed for it. I think that's going to happen a lot. I don't really have a lot of things to say about a lot of the things that got announced at E3. Because there's no information. What about... It's not even that there's no information. It's just that I'm excited or I think this is retarded, EA.

Why are you doing this? What about the Division 2's gameplay demo it's back it's the division 1 trailer again all over again but it's new and improved it's so much better did you hear the gamers speak they were so much more hip

all that changed no listen all that changed warmer weather honest health bars that's all that changed it doesn't it looks like raids oh no that's not what i'm saying i'm talking about the trailer the only thing that was different about the trailer from the original division trailer is honest health bars because in the original division trailer no one's a bullet sponge and i feel like and it looks fun they definitely grabbed some like

gamers and we're like all right we need to know what to put in our gameplay trailer how do you guys talk and then like i don't know it sounded like to kick out everyone who was just saying i hate women and minorities fucking ed's tweet god that seriously. It's so fucking funny. Sorry, stupid. I thought it... I don't know. When he was like, yeah, let's just go in there and die. Also, I'm not making another parody of it.

So many people have been tweeting at me asking me to make another parody of it. Shut up, Cameron. I'm not going to. I already made that joke it's not worth it god the other thing that I want to talk about from Xbox was Dying Light 2

looks interesting Dying Light 2 looks fantastic right? they're doing a zero sum game for like the fucking dialogue and the choices which is super interesting and reminded me of uh ken levine's like uh fucking he did a talk at gdc one one year

and he and it's essentially like what this game is going to be doing which is like uh like every choice uh is like a like there's there's no way to like make the perfect choice and it'll be super interesting to see if they can like actually do that and do that well which like from like their demo looked like they were trying to do at least yeah i just hope that like well one thing that scared me a little bit after seeing that is this like they showed what happens if you go one path but then when they showed the other path it sort of looked like they had the same consequences of like someone still running the town so i just hope that like they actually lead to diverse consequences and they don't get too repetitive also is it not going to be multiplayer because

how are they going to do that within multiplayer i think multiplayer and single player might be separated yeah which is which is which is the right choice i mean i don't know it might just be literally the character who talked whoever talks to the npc gets to make the choice that might just be how it works it's just gonna be a fucking race to the npc it's the NPC gets to make the choice. That might just be how it works. It's just gonna be a fucking race to the NPC. He's like, I'm gonna make your world shit, dude. You're gonna get fucked. I mean, yeah, but then if it's

co-op and it's one person's single player game, it's probably just whoever's single player game it is that gets to make the choices and the other people are there. It didn't look like you could actually like make your world shit it looks like everything has like bonuses and uh negatives yeah which is good it reminds me of fallout new vegas or what i've played of it so far kind of like in that

kind of decision making like one decision pisses off one person, but it makes another person like you. So that's good. It's promising, for sure. It's Chris Avalon. Is it? Yeah. I don't know who that is. He wrote New Vegas. Oh, did he? Yeah.

Oh, I didn't know that. I didn't know that. That's cool. Yeah. Or he was one of the writers for New Vegas. Hell yeah. Man. Who else is excited for Jump Force? I want I want

I want Yagami's fighting style to be I want it to be Typing of the Dead. Yo, you just have to match them. You have to try and use the sticks to write out the character's name. Oh my god. The fucking battles are like six seconds long. You have to try and use the sticks to write out the character's name. Fucking kanji.

Oh my god. The fucking battles are like six seconds long. Light is just a fucking glass cannon. Yeah. When I fucking saw Luffy from One Piece on the American flag, I knew it was going to be great. Yeah? Were you a One Piece fan? No. I hate One Piece on the American flag, I knew it was going to be great. Yeah? Were you a One Piece fan? No.

I hate One Piece. What do you mean? Because it's so fucking funny. Yeah. It's just so ridiculous. I hope it's good. Do you guys have other characters you think are definitely going to be in that? My hero, Erika. I think Jotaro will be. I think Jotaro will be.

I think Jotaro will be. I actually might fucking buy that game. I don't know. What are Joseph's there? There's no way they would pick Joseph. Isn't Jojo's owned by the license is Capcom? No, it's Capcom for video games. For video games?

No, but they've had them in Shonen Jump games before. I talked to Brendan about it. Maybe... I talked to Brendan and Ed about it. And Ed's... I asked Ed if he thought they would have any JoJo character. He's like, yeah, and it'll probably be Jotaro.

David. It's probably... It is going to be Jotaro. David, who's the Shonen Jump character you're looking forward to the most to be in Jump Force? Oh, man. There are so many, but I would have to say... You're a piece of shit. Why are you doing this? I was like, I was like legitimately vaguely interested.

Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna be honest, I think I want- Yo, put Saitama in! He's's just slow If he lands one punch though It's over That would be actually sick That would be fun Wait is he Is that Shonen Is he Shonen

Is that Shonen Jump Is that Shonen Jump From I don't know if I don't think so No it's independently distributed Yeah it's I forgot

Or it was Isuku from My Hero Academia Is gonna be there I'm pretty sure I mean isn't Isn't that like the top Anime right now? It is. There's no way he's not in there.

Yeah, for sure. Weird that they wouldn't put him in the trailers. I mean, it's like the first trailer. They're showing off the three main. Oh, you know what? I think they might add the stupid idiot dumb face from Black

Clover. I love that character. I don't know what the fuck you were talking about. Stupid idiot dumb face. I have a figurine. Oh my god. God damn it. Is he actually gone? I got it. Hey. Alright. God damn it.

Oh, whoa. It looks sick, dude. Thanks. So you guys still talking about jump force? Does he do the thing? Yeah, he does the thing. I push down on his head and he flips. No. I'm going to love with you.

I bought this on eBay because it was a deal. I don't actually have any idea what this character is. Wow. People are actually going to think you have a fucking... A stupid idiot dumb face character like yeah if i see a fucking figure and it's like i'm gonna get it you know yeah why god i fucking all right great content i fucking can we talk about cyberpunk now that's the only thing Cameron wants to talk about

Cameron wants to talk about a few things but cyberpunk is definitely one of them no cyberpunk looks sick cyberpunk looks sick and everything I hear about it is great also there are so many people complaining that it's first person and not third person and like there was one that I read

which pissed me off to the end of the earth. Read it and say the username. No. It was like they replied to one of the tweets and they were like you guys should definitely change it to the third person.

It just suits this game so much more than first person. What do you mean? You don't know what the game is. Exactly. You don't know what the fucking game is. You haven't played it. You haven't seen gameplay. You have no fucking clue.

Like, holy shit. Also, I'm going to say this. I know a lot of people are upset because it's like they're Witcher fans and they're like, they wanted it to be the Witcher, but it's future. That doesn't make any fucking sense for the setting. It doesn't, right? It makes no sense. No sense for the setting.

Because this is guns. It's guns, dude. It's guns. Everyone has guns. It's going to be so much more dense. Remember in The Witcher 3 when you run into a fucking place and then you have the hardest time

controlling your character to actually pick up the thing you want? Imagine that but like every place is that fucking like small and like like it's just it wouldn't work it would not work nearly as well as first person would cameron it sounds like you're saying it works better for the game like you know what the game is kind of fucked up considering that was really hypocritical of you what i'm trying to say if you think cyberpunk should be a better person cameron's trying to say, if you think Cyberpunk should be a better person, Cameron's trying to say that you're a moron and he's better than you. I agree.

This statement is true. I mean, I don't disagree. I'm just fucked up. Also, that trailer was really cool, what they did with giving away free copies of The Witcher 3. There's a bunch of copies with the DLC. I'm really excited to see more of it.

And from what I'm hearing... I'm actually, yeah. I didn't care for The Witcher 3 of what I've played of it. I know that's fucking heresy. But it's just, I couldn't get into it because of the way the fucking... I couldn't get into it because of the way Geralt controls. And I realized from Cameron

that apparently you can turn that off. No, you don't play those games for the fucking combat! The combat's not good um but I'm actually really gassed for this everything I've heard and seen of it looks great yeah and because they're

showing 50 minutes behind closed doors I'm it's coming soon it's coming soon 2019 or 2020 I would, I would imagine. Yeah, I would imagine that would be it. I don't think we would have shown it. God, I've been meaning to talk about Cyberpunk so long.

Cyberpunk's been... I mean, Kyle, they've been working on Cyberpunk for six years. Really? Yes. All right. Then hopefully it comes out in the next six. Kyle's like, I hope it fails. Yeah, he's just like, no, it's not into it.

Hey, just so you know, I've played a little and I enjoyed it. Let's introduce a new segment. Kyle, out of everything you saw at E3, what do you hope fails? Ah, gee whiz, I have to- hang on, let me slice this up. There's a lot! I mean like, how much time you got? Did you see how excited and nervous the girl from Sea of Solitude looked? I hope that game fucking bombs.

No! No no no no no. I hope that day dies in production and you can't even play it. Oh my god. Um, I don't know, I feel like I should just- no. I won't know I feel like I should just no I won't I won't I'll piss you for that no what you have to say it now

I don't actually have one I don't have a game that I hope fails I hope you fail anymore I hope you fail oh god damn it um it's like a fucking feedback loop I think we should talk about the biggest announcement that Xbox

made like at least the acquisition of everything I can't believe they announced the acquisition of studios that was so weird it was really weird they took fucking ninja theory

I'm happy about that. To me, that reads as Ninja Theory is going to be expanding soon. That's a good thing, Kyle. If you read about how long it took them to break even on Hellblade, they really did need

financial backing. It took them, I think, six months to break even on Hellblade and that was three times faster than they anticipated or something I think it's really strange that they would announce studios

well no it's not if you think about the current climate of games and what Microsoft and the Xbox's reputation is no games, no exclusives, no studios. They're essentially saying when the next Xbox

comes out, there's going to be games. I think they've already given up on this generation, I think. It's definitely for the next one. How far out are we from the next gen? A couple years? A few years? Yeah. I reckon they get announced next year and then they come out the year after.

That's what I'm thinking. Next year is going to be all hardware all the time. I was sort of hoping the whole time that either Sony or Microsoft would just announce it this year. Just to fuck with the other one? Just to literally fuck with the other one and be like,

holy shit. So ballsy. Hurry up, boys. That's what Nintendo does. Nintendo does half generations. fuck with the other one and be like, holy shit. So ballsy. Hurry up, boys. That's what Nintendo does. Nintendo does half generations. Yeah. I hope the next consoles are just, you don't even buy them, they're just

subscription services. Cloud computing. Can't wait. I'm so excited for my Chromecast box. I hope they're still the size of VCRs, though. Oh, God, please. Did We Happy Few get a release date? I don't remember that.

It did, yeah. And it's apparently going to actually have a story this time. A single player. Yeah, it's apparently going to be. Why did you make this game? People thought the game that we were advertising looked more interesting than the game we made. So we made that.

It's so weird. I'm so confused. What were they doing? I don't know. Imagine that internal decision. Like, hey, you know that trailer we made? We should actually make that into a game, huh? Because people thought that that's what it was and they were way more into that.

I'm so confused. Is it? Are they changing it to be linear? I think they're adding a linear mode. They're adding a mode, yeah. Dude, I don't know. What do you want from me, David? It's gonna be so bad. It's gonna be so weird.

Because they keep changing everything. No, but like if it actually is like that, it could be decent. Like it could be. I know it could be decent. But the thing is. You literally just said it was going to be so bad. It could.

I mean, everything's possible. That's true. Yeah, good point. But my hopes are really low after what like the info I have of the current state of the game you have insider info well no i mean you mean you mean like the early access version the games it's gonna be it's coming out of early access is what this is yeah so it's probably gonna be significant changes i hope so especially since they're adding a story i would imagine the changes are going to be pretty significant story already wasn't it, you want to escape city?

No, it was just procedural generation. It's just a procedurally generated open world survival game. Oh. That for some reason they advertised as a story-driven single-player game. I don't have any fucking idea what... This game is just such a fucking...

Look, Avery, that's the truth. It's just a fucking tone and just so you get the tone you don't understand man the tone of the rendering can actively made it look like a fucking game I know like he's there's they pull a pipe out like it's a fucking shock game it's dumb but i mean hopefully it's good i hope it's good because that i i'm really interested in that like setting story looks interesting yeah the setting yeah the setting is cool and i think it would be a good game if it was made well yeah a good game if it was the game that i wanted it to be exactly you know it should be third person

by the way yeah i'm just like putting that out there all right is there anything else to talk about from xbox or should we move on to well what did you guys think of metro exodus oh fuck right oh fuck the extra gameplay that was sick that looks really cool that looks great i'm really excited the old metro games yeah it Looks like the other Metro games. It's the other Metro games, but in a big open world. That's fucking wild to think about. It looks fantastic. Because the Metro games,

for anyone who hasn't played them, or isn't familiar, the Metro games, like a big thing with those games is that there is no heads-up display at all. There is. There is a heads-up display. You think about Ranger difficulty. Ranger difficulty takes a lot of shit away. Ranger is not a difficulty, it's a mode. no heads up display at all you just there is a heads up display you're thinking about you think about ranger difficulty ranger difficulty takes a ranger is not a difficulty it's a mode what's the display it's it's just like shows you your ammo there's no like health you have to check

no you have to check to see your ammo no only in ranger only in ranger i only play that game in ranger what the fuck no No, you can turn it off in the settings. It's definitely advised. I must have done that. It's definitely advised to turn it off because there's no reason. Definitely turn it off. If you play Metroid, you can turn it off because that's... Yeah. Are you sure that's not off by default? I don't remember going into my settings.

No, it is not off by default. I know that it's not. It is not off by default. Okay, I must have noticed and then turned that off then and not remember that. Okay, but don't you don't play it with the hot on it's a very with the hot on i know it's a fucking meme word but it's a very very very immersive game because of that and how they uh display information the player is very very clever and that in a big open world sounds awesome pretty dope sounds really sick yeah I'm excited

plays like really well yeah no I need the fucking setting is just fantastic it is I am about to piss my pants I will be right back sorry what I'm about to fucking piss my pants I need to go

dude save oh my god let's go pee 1 2 3 break Sorry. What? I'm about to fucking piss my pants. I need to go. Dude, save. Oh my god. Let's go pee. One, two, three. Break. Keep smiling. Brace Face will be right back. Yeah. Your eyes? What? My eyes.

Oh. My eyes. You don't need your eyes to podcast, Kyle. I think that was it for Xbox. I think so. Unless we're probably forgetting something major that happened, but that's fine. Well, I was going to ask about...

Oh, Gears. Oh, that's Gears. Gears. The fucking great... Yeah. The great prank. The bait. The big bait.

The good bait. They baited twice with Gears. They baited twice. It's amazing. Wait, okay. I knew as soon as the second one came up, I was like, okay, so they're definitely announcing Gears 5.

There's no fucking way that they show Gears tactics. And then don't fucking about Gears.com. Gears Funko Pops. What the fuck? So what was the little fucking big-headed- It's a mobile game. It's a mobile game. It's a mobile game. It's a mobile game.

It's a mobile fucking So why the fuck did they just randomly show up? A missile silo in the middle of the map by sending out units? Alright. Why the fuck did they just show up randomly in the middle of their fucking trailer? That was so weird.

Gears 5 looks somewhat interesting. Like a weird. Yeah Gears 5 looks somewhat interesting. Like a side quest. No, it looks somewhat interesting because It looks like they ditched the cover system Mmm, did they though? They didn't today. There's not a single moment in the trailer where someone's taking cover. But like look at look at some of the level design when you're watching that trailer there's this clear cover and shit that's like I think at the very least the game is not going to be reliant on the cover system

anymore which is a good thing yeah it is a good thing here's a fucking blistering take Gears is boring because of the cover system it's fucking boring there's like fucking a lot of

angry typing happening right now I'm sure but fucking uh there's a lot you can do with like the way you snap to cover like wall bouncing is a thing in Gears you move a lot faster if you just bounce between pieces of cover instead of running but the cover system itself is fucking boring

it makes the game less interesting I don't see them departing from it though maybe not entirely but I think there will be a much The cover system itself is fucking boring. It makes the game less interesting. I don't see them departing from it though. Maybe not entirely but I think there will be a much... They might be moving away from it. You would have to add something else to the gameplay though. What if every fucking cover is destructible?

That'd be cool. And that's why they were always standing up because you can hide for a bit but then it would break. But it wouldn't make sense for, like, big pillars and walls. I mean, that sounds like Levolution. I don't know. But, I don't know.

I mean, I feel like if they got rid of the cover system, they would need, like, a new way to go about combat. Because what would you do in PvP? You'd just, like... I don't know. You ever played Warhammer 40k Space Marine? Nope. I was picturing that.

Alright. Is that it for Xbox? I think so. I think we did everything that mattered. Do you guys have any opinions about racing games? No. It looks cool. People probably care. I hear Forza

Horizon is good. I hear Horizon's is good. So like, whatever. Yeah, I mean, yeah. I hate the biggest fucking bait of my life. I ruined Bethesda's like the start of Bethesda's thing for me because I saw the guitar I was like

Holy shit, they're announcing a new doom and Mick Gordon's here and he's gonna fucking play live. That's gonna be so sick WK comes out and I just fucking I like oh no I set myself up for failure God I thought I thought Bethesda had like a really bad one. Bethesda had a good conference and then Bethesda had a really bad conference. It's really weird. It was like the worst and the best. It was the second best conference in my opinion.

Was it? Was it? It's one of only two conferences that upset me is the thing. Yeah. Yeah. They had just a really good conference, but also I just like,

I have a more open mind towards the big one than you guys probably do. So like, so Rage 2 looks cool. Rage 2 does look cool. I mean, it looks pretty cool. It does look cool. I'm excited to like play it

because it's kind of like the thing with Doom, how that kind of looked bad before we got to play it and then I was like holy shit this is really good so like I don't know how it's going to play until I play it. The weapons all look really satisfying they do look satisfying though you can lift enemies off the air

off the ground while firing at them. The shotgun looks really satisfying to use it just looked like a a lot of to use. It just looked like a... A lot of Bethesda games just look like a run around, fuck them up any way you want. Rage 2 looks... It just looks chaotic and I think that's

exactly what that game should be. Yeah, I agree. Because Rage 1 was... Nothing. Go ahead. Yeah, David? I read my notes and nothing yeah David I read my notes and this is what I wrote for Rage 2

man I love video games with a question mark in parenthesis man I love video games why did I write that I think it was because of Andrew WK and the crowd the crowd going... Oh, the crowd shots!

Why would production cut to that crowd shot? There's, like, that guy fucking rolling his eyes. Like, everyone's, like, so confused. Yeah, the crowd shots were pretty awful. And everyone was saying that the guitar was, like, fucking cringey, though. But, like, I don't know. I don't think it was that awful.

Yeah, he looked into it. It was whatever. But, like, I don't understand... He was into it was that he looked into it it was whatever but like i don't understand what the crowd just wasn't the thing is like nothing is set up nothing seemed to be set up properly for a musical performance it seemed to be all set up for a presentation which it was so the musical performance was like the the vocals were all way louder than the instruments so it was just kind of off but like the piano was quiet as fuck

I mean the keyboard fuck what else oh shit they they did the two things so they showed fucking the card game and then they immediately Elder Scrolls Online Elder Scrolls Online

and also Elder Scrolls Online. Elder Scrolls Online. Immediately after Elder Scrolls Online. And also Elder Scrolls Rivals. Legends. Blades. Wait, before we get to that. We're not doing the conferences in order Kyle. The guy for Elder Scrolls

Online like pointing to like, you know, just like asking the crowd to clap for him yeah I know okay move on I fucking hated that conference because every two minutes they would like there would be clapping and then it would like last for another minute

yeah like 80% of that conference was waiting for people to stop fucking clapping god the dude I was watching the conference with my girlfriend and she was like, she cried at the dude announcing Elder Scrolls Online because of how adorable he was with like, how passionate he seemed

at the game. And he was pretty fucking like, he's pretty cute. Did it boil your blood? No, I was like, he's pretty cute. I hope it fails. Yeah. Did you not get what I was like, he's pretty cute. I hope it fails. Yeah. Did you not get what I was saying there? What the fuck, Kyle?

No. Fucking. Doom sequel. Doom sequel. Wolfenstein. Yeah, that was. Sequel with the co-op. That was DLC.

And women. Is that DLC? Or no, is that? No, no. Wolfenstein 2 is DLC. No. Youngblood. It's not DLC yeah it's a new standalone it's a standalone alone yeah it's like young blood I thought oh I didn't know blood fuck you I didn't young bloods a new one Avery I fucking hate you unironically so it's very like

young Avery at least we got something in common you feel me? Why do you think I hate you? You remind me of me but from somewhere else it triggers everything I hate. You're me but foreign and I hate that. There's there's the roguelite uh that looks cool I haven't played the new prey but that actually sounds interesting to me like they're doing something really interesting with the DLC not having it just be like story content which I mean story content could also be really cool

yeah I know yeah for sure but like it's interesting to see weird weird is the word I would use they're doing prop hunt as well that looks excited about that one sounds fun yeah i need to fucking play that game um fallout 76 we got there wait before we talk about fallout 76 shouldn't we talk about Fallout 76, shouldn't we talk about how they confirmed 6? Oh, yeah.

We should talk about that they confirmed that they are eventually going to make another Elder Scrolls. Who cares? Hey, guys. Bod Bowerd here. It's in pre-production. It's not going to be coming out until like 2022 at the earliest. That's the same thing with fucking Starfield

people were like people just said like Bethesda won we already knew they were making both of these games I didn't know about Starfield but I don't know what it is I'm gonna be honest I didn't they showed a logo

that's information to me bud five years ago they claimed the copyright for starfield and everybody everybody was like oh make a new space game are we the fears there and then like now they just confirmed it and it's like that's the same with outer scrolls 6 like if you thought bethesda wasn't going to make another outer scrolls game like you're what come on come on. They love money. They want it. All of us chose the sarcasm option that will inevitably be in Skyrim 2.

I'm not... I just don't... I don't care for Elder Scrolls 6. I care for Starfield, though. I care for Elder Scrolls 6, but like... Elder Scrolls 6 might be good but of course they're going to make another one. It's a logo.

Yeah it was a logo. Fallout 76. But it's to build hype you know. It's like country roads. I'm maybe ironic that we started out this podcast by talking about the E3 cynicism being a bit too much but I can't help but be cynical like

oh they knew they were going to piss off a lot of people with the Fallout 76 information so they decided to follow it up with also we're gonna eventually remember we make Elder Scrolls remember that game you like we're still making it don't worry if you don't like 76

we're still making good games it's a way away but like you know it's happening We're still making it. Don't worry if you don't like 76. We're still making good games. I mean, we haven't started yet. It's a way away, but like, you know, it's happening. Fucking Todd Howard. The Skyrim Alexa thing was funny, though. Here's a logo tweeted out with Bethesda wins. Hashtag Bethesda E3. God.

Yeah. 76, though. I didn't watch the making of Fallout 76. No clip documentary camera. I watched it yesterday. So you two know more about what the game is going to be than I do. Which is dumb. They gave more information during the noclip documentary

than they did on stage or in any interviews. Like, it's crazy that they would leave that all like... I think I'm kind of interested. I'm interested. I'm kind of interested. I'm interested. I might be good. For now on, just remember that I've only played some of Fallout 4

and no other Fallout, so I'm not as held on. Oh no. I'm not as held on, so when I heard what they were announcing, I got excited. I was like, alright, that sounds dope to me. It might be fun, though. So originally Fallout 76 was going to be a mode in Fallout 4.

They were developing all of the tech for Fallout 4 to be part of the game, and they decided to make an own game out of it and make the world bigger and shit. Four times as big as Fallout 4. It's like, from what I'm getting getting it's a mix of survival games and destiny and that's kind of like would you say the same David? like from watching the network talk

yeah I would say that I'm not you can totally play the game solo implying that there's a single player there's no fucking single player there's no single player. There's no fucking single player. There's no fucking single player. So there's no story or anything?

There's a story. There's a story. It's not a story you can roleplay in. Because there's no human NPCs. There's no single fucking human NPC in the entire game. There's robots? Every other human you see is a player.

There's robots. Robots are your quiz givers, essentially. I think that's... I'm excited for Fallout 76 for what it's gonna be, but I just wish it wasn't Fallout 76, because from what you guys say, 76 being one of the first vaults, that's...

It's the... It's the first vault to open. It was the... Fuck, what is the word? In the trailer, they said one of the first. 76 was one of the control vaults, yeah. So there was no experimentation in there. Yeah, that's, like, Fallout's, like, 76...

Vault 76 is a super fucking important vault in the Fallout lore. Yeah. So, yeah, and that's why I'm upset, because I'm like, okay, now that's something where you could actually develop a storyline make a fucking Fallout make a Fallout game don't make

I don't know I'm kind of whatever this game might be good for what it is I fucking don't like it for being what it is because I don't want that and I recognize that that's me and this is the direction they're taking Fallout and they are free to do

what they want with the license but I don't like it. I mean you don't know maybe survival light will be fun. Maybe survival light will be fun. Yes soft core survival. Soft core survival. It's dumb because they've got it sounds like just normal survival but you don't lose your stuff when you die essentially.

So it's survival without the risk reward that makes it interesting. Because there's still a hunger bar and a first bar, and I'm like, why does that matter if you just keep your stuff when you die? What do you lose when you die? I love playing Escape from Good Game Design. I don't understand a hunger in the first thing

if death doesn't matter in the game. Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. It's just something else that you have to kind of pay attention to. It's just like, limit... If it's just something else that you have to kind of pay attention to it's just like limit like if it was a single player game where you were role-playing let's call it a role-playing game and there was a hunger and thirst thing that you had to keep track of then you would have to be paying attention to buying like food and making sure you're getting enough water when you're going out questing and that could make it interesting but when you die and you just get sent back to the base you

made assuming that another player has not nuked it then what's that's like that's like that's like that's like i don't care it's still stupid the nu stupid. I don't want to be nuked by a fucking random. I don't care if it's late game. Alright, the one thing... It would ruin your game. It would ruin your game. Especially if you worked on a base... Shout out to the fact that the two games that upset me the most at this fucking conference are about

neutral nuclear silos. That is true. The one thing that was interesting that you don't hear about in like the the presentation and but in the noclip doc is that the way radiation works instead of it just removing parts from your health if you get radiated enough it gives you like a perk where it gives you a benefit and a negative it's essentially like perk system vegas yeah from a new vegas but like they're they're like differenti, and some have visual effects

and stuff like that. And that was a super cool, like, way to change radiation. Yeah, no, I like that, actually. I like that as a change to the way radiation works. So, like, that was cool, but, like, yikes, though. Really, like, it'll be interesting to see how... And also, the only way to play

that game without... with no having to worry about being ganked by randoms is to fucking rent a private server, which is not even going to be available at launch. And that's the way that mods are going to work as well, apparently.

Yeah, mods are only going to be on private servers. Can you host a private server from your computer using fucking Homachi or something, Or do you need to rent one? I mean, we won't know until it's out. I mean, it's out soon. And also, mods are...

I assume the mods are only going to work from Fallout's own mod thing. Oh yeah, absolutely. I don't think Nexus is going to work for this because it's online. There's not going to be persistent characters no way there will be persistent characters if they're allowing private servers

yeah so you're going to have to stick to one server oh god if you get into a server with a bunch of fucking idiots and you don't realize that for a few hours then you just left it all out lose all your progress yeah you don't realize that for like a few hours, then you just left it all the out. Yeah. Because I assume you're just going to lose all your progress.

Yeah. Oh, I am not. I'm not excited about fallout 76. The fact that the bait is not going to be open and it's only for people who pre-order is like, Ooh, come on guys.

Like, fuck. I was, I was kind of thinking like maybe it could be good, but fuck. I mean, maybe, I mean,

maybe it'll be good for what it is. Maybe it'll be good for it. Yeah. Maybe it'd be good but fuck I mean maybe it'll be good for what it is maybe it'll be good for what it is maybe it'll be really good maybe it'll be a really good game as a service I don't know that's it it's gonna be a game as a service yike

yike yike yike shall we move on to Devolver then sounds like a bit more do we want to talk about Elder Scrolls Bl do I mean no honestly? I really don't want to I don't find I Mean yeah, no Mobile game didn't they say it was gonna be a smart way to design a mobile game I like that you can play I like that you can play it in portrait You can play on PC. Yeah, okay, yeah

It's coming to PC and they're going to try and get it on every console why? that was so weird to me because I literally said I wish this was on PC and they're like it's coming to everything and I'm like now why'd you announce it as a mobile game then? well because it's the first

because it's a mobile game it's a mobile game that is going to be ported to every other platform I don't know who cares I'm not that interested it looks it's a clever way to design a fucking Elder Scrolls mobile game but who cares

yeah alright is that hang on you don't want to talk about doom at all. Oh, right It was it was a logo and it was a logo. It's hell on earth. So that's pretty cool The music was fucking say also, why is the subtitle eternal? Why isn't it doom hell on earth knows? That's a bit of something like come on With hell in the title. Oh

Like a thing? It might be in certain places. Bad. No, because Right to Hell Retribution is a game that exists. Probably wasn't sold in some storefronts. I mean, for various reasons. I mean, because it was shit.

That's what I'm saying, David. No, I mean, I don't know. Hell on Earth would have been... I also think Hell on Earth would have been a better title. But, yeah, it's Eternal. Maybe it's a roguelike. It is Eternal. Maybe it's a roguelike.

Doom roguelike. That could be cool. That could be cool. Not as the main mode, though. Oh, God, no. That could be cool, though. I hope they get multiplayer right this time. I would actually really like that.

Yeah. If they made a roguelike. Because I heard Snap Map was really powerful. I heard they get multiplayer right this time. I would actually really like that if they made a rogue like... Because I heard Snapmap was really powerful. I heard Snapmap was sick. I heard somebody recreated Dota 2 in it. Nice. That's not true. I know.

I know it's not true. Did you imagine that? That would be actually amazing. I would be so impressed. Wait, did you say that was a joke? Because you can place mobs in that. So I thought you were being serious and I felt like I feel like I heard about that hang on is no way that's true that I know way there's no way 2016 snap map dota no I don't see so wait how a guy nearly broke doom snap map to make a

MOBA. Someone made a MOBA in Doom Snap Map. Shut the fuck up. You were partially right. What? Yeah. What? That's amazing. That's pretty, yeah. No, it's Snap Map was super, it was fully featured, pretty much. It was really,

really powerful. That's insane. And simple to use. No, it was cool, but but the multiplayer sucked because they made a loadout shooter for some reason so I mean in fairness they outsource the multiplayer they didn't make it themselves so I hope they get the multiplayer right this time is all I mean the multiplayer was an awesome I don't know about that but that's awesome that he made fucking a mobile what that's insane yeah that's that's awesome that he made fucking a MOBA. What the fuck? That's insane. That's amazing. All right. Shall we talk about Devolver then?

Devolver. Devolver. I love that they have lore. Yeah. I like that there's lore. I want to say that what I think they should have done this year is play it completely straight. Yeah, I agree.

Play it completely straight. Yeah, I agree. I don't hate what they did. It was fine. It was just a letdown compared to last year's because what made last year's really fucking good was it was completely unexpected. Before last year's

E3, we were all like devolver is gonna what is devolver gonna do at their e3 conference yeah okay well this and then we watched and we oh that makes a lot of sense it's uh that definitely seems like what devolver would do for their press conference although although to be fair the games that they showed like my fit friend pedro looks so fucking cool yeah looks i'm concerned about how it will play it looks cool i'm very concerned about how the is it going to control the controls yeah i think movement is going to be entirely automated i don't know no this is no way no have you seen the way that it you're constantly moving at the same speed from left to right in all of the footage from the game.

I hate you, Avery. I think jumping, I think you'll be able to control jumping. I don't think you'll be able to control movement. Why wouldn't you be able to control your own, though? That would be so weird. Because how would you control that game? Have you seen how insane that would be?

Like, think about it. It would be very difficult to, like... No, but there's that time where he stops. Is there? I don't remember. He does. With the pan. Maybe there's a pan where he's firing up into the ceiling. Oh, well, maybe there's a stop button.

Maybe there's a stop and go button. Come on. I'm just saying that because in all of the trailers, he's moving at one speed. Yeah, but, like, maybe he just only has at one speed. Yeah, but like, maybe you just only have one movement speed. Yeah, okay, it's a binary speed and he never moves right to left. I don't want to fucking...

I hate you. I just... Sorry. Like, I'm just saying it's a concern I have. That would... That is concerning if it would... I don't know. It looks cool.

It looks cool. I hope it's I hope there's a lot of spectacle I'm just concerned about the actual gameplay itself how it plays that's fair enough I've seen gameplay what do you mean I mean like 8 minutes

of non-stop gameplay we're not going to stop the podcast to watch that no we're not going to stop the podcast to watch that. No, we're not. Right. No, he does stop. He does stop. He can stop. Can he move right to left?

Can he move backwards? He does. Yes, he can. He can. Okay. How the fuck are you going to control that game? That's going to... We'll have to see.

We'll have to see. That's a big release. There's a lot... I mean, there's a lot of slow-mo. There's a lot of slow-mo. Okay. I hope that game's sick. I hope that game's sick. I hope that game's as sick as it looks.

Yeah, cool. Metal Wolf Chaos! I've never played Metal Wolf Chaos, but Ed is not shut up about Metal Wolf Chaos. XD. Oh my god. People got real mad about MechAmerica great again. Such a good hashtag.

That's such a good website website that's a really good URL hot tip everyone who's mad it's a joke like not even it's not even in favor of the original manga it's just a joke that is as close to as political as I'm going to get it is a satire

it's a politically neutral joke it's such a politically neutral joke I don't understand why you would get mad about it it's a politically neutral joke. It's such a politically neutral joke, I don't understand why you would get mad about it. It's a pun. You are so angry about a pun. It's so dumb. God, what a great website, though. It's a really good URL.

I'm just happy that it's back. I'm excited to play it. I've not played it, but it sounds like... It sounds so sad. From software, American fucking political satire game. God excited. What a fucking world. Apparently they name dropped in an interview

the super best for the best friends and they're part of the reason why it's getting this really calling it a remake. Isn't it? Is it not just it's just an HD release, isn't it? It's just an HD release. Well, it's the first? It's just an HD re-release. It's the first time it's going to be on PC.

It's a port. It's the first time it's going to be in North America and Europe, right? I have no idea. It was Asia only. It was not localized? Okay, well, that's cool. It's not a remake. That's cool. It's definitely not a remake.

The weird part is all the voice acting was already in English. Yeah. What? I've seen some of the voice acting. The voice acting is the reason why it's such a, like, it's well known. God. I mean, also the premise. Yeah, the premise is fucking nuts.

Should we explain what the premise is? The premise is that you're. You are the president of the United States in a mech fighting the vice president of the United States who is also in a mech who's trying to take over America. That is the premise

of Metal Wolf Chaos. It's so stupid. There's like voice acting in the game where you get messages from your secretary and she's like there's like voice acting in the game where you get messages from your secretary and she's like uh you have in in like uh about two hours you have to go meet with the president of china and he's the president's just like clear my schedule i'm kicking ass no i'm excited about it it's like it's super shitty voice acting good it has to be it's

fantastic it was well what if it was well voice acted oh that would be that'd be so It's super shitty voice acting. It's so good. It's fantastic. What if it was well voice acted? That would be so fucking weird. That's the first thing they said. They said they're keeping everything. It's intact. They just scaled things up, I think. And made it English.

What was the other game? Scum. The fucking... Scum, the open world survival... No, it's Battle Royale. It's a Battle Royale game. It says Super Max Open World Survival. Really?

But it's a Battle Royale. Is it though? It didn't look like a Battle Royale. It looks like it has NPCs. Oh. No, it is a It didn't look like a battle royale. It looks like it has NPCs. Oh. Yeah. No, it is a survival game.

Oh. Yeah. You guys shitting on my boy Kyle when you're just like, 2018 has to be a battle royale, Kyle. What the fuck are you talking about? Don't make survival games anymore. Fallout 76? Fallout 76 who?

That's a looter shooter, Avery. You can get legendaries in that. I don't fucking need it. I'm still upset about it. Are you guys excited about... Are you guys excited about Scum? Not really. Was that why you... Because I was...

I am really... Why did we bring it up? I don't... I didn't bring it up. Why are you... It was me. I was asking if anybody wanted to talk about Scum.

Oh. No. Alright. I actually... Full anybody wanted to talk about Scum. Oh, no. Alright. Full disclosure, I took no notes for this E3, so I legitimately have forgotten a lot of what got announced, and that's how I'm determining whether or not I want to talk about it. Alright. Ubisoft?

Well, Square Enix. Did you forget about the Square Enix? Did you take any notes for the Square Enix. Square Enix. Did you forget about the Square Enix? Oh. Did you take any notes for the Square Enix one? I didn't. Fuck that shit. I actually, I did take notes for the Square Enix one, but I've got a new note where it's like what I want to talk about, and I didn't add any Square Enix into it.

Because what would you? Other than why did they have a press conference? No. There is one thing I want to talk about. I want to talk about the Quiet Man. Oh, yeah. The Quiet Man. What is that? The only thing talk about. I want to talk about The Quiet Man. Oh, yeah. The only thing they announced.

It looks so bad. I think it looks... It was if and then it went into gameplay. That was a really weird transition. I mean, graphically, I don't think it looks good. It looks like a game from 2012. I didn't like that. God, I love when he just points to his ears and then it just transitions

to fucking gameplay. That was really fucking odd. It might be good. I don't know. I don't know what it is. The Quiet Man. It was a terrible trailer. It was really bad. The title of the game I think is terrible. The Quiet Man?

What the fuck it looks stupid I don't know man I don't know enough about it to say whether or not I think it looks stupid I mean it looks stupid right now it might not look stupid it's beating people up also you're deaf I think

I hope the game has no sound oh that would be great that would be terrible or the sound is just always like it's just like you've got fucking it's just buzzing constantly Cameron why aren't you a game

designer good point I'm really glad that I sat through Captain Strange or whatever what's the oh captain spirit the awesome adventures of captain spirit a lot of people i'm glad i sat through that five times a lot of people were tweeting at me about that like you're gonna fucking put the awesome adventures free to play our game in the fucking own zone no what i'm not going to do that it's a free-to-play hour game. Captain Spirit in the fucking own zone? No. What?

I'm not going to do that. It's a free-to-play game. It looks adorable. I don't have anything against Don't Nod. I don't care. I've said this so many times. I wish them the best. It's a one-hour experience.

What would you even say? It's the same mechanics as Life is Strange. Okay. This kid is dumb. See the kid? He could pretend to be a fucking superhero, but I can't do any fucking wicked sick combos. Like, what is even the fucking point?

Where's the game game I don't care I hope it's good I hope people like it it's 100% free and it looks cute I don't know I have nothing else to say about it it's essentially an hour demo for fucking the next life is strange game basically yeah it's just them trying

to make that universe bigger after the ending of life is strange made it so small hey what do you think make that universe bigger after the ending of Life is Strange made it so small. Hey, what do you think they're going to make canon for Life is Strange 2? Which one do you think they're going to make canon? I mean, it doesn't matter. The one with... It doesn't take place in the same... Spoiler alert. It doesn't take place in the same universe.

No, no, no. It's not the same characters and it doesn't take place in the same area, I don't think like Life is Strange season 2 is completely separate from the first Life is Strange outside of the same universe thing um Ubisoft shut up

Ubisoft can we start off by saying that I miss Aisha Tyler I like I kinda liked Ubisoft's conference really? Is Aisha Tyler? I kind of liked Ubisoft's conference. Really? Because I thought it was so funny. It was entertaining all the way through.

I mean, yeah, that's true, but I don't think that was intentional. I feel like a lot of it was not intentional. I mean, I don't care if it was unintentional. It was fun. I want to talk about, with the fucking Just Dance intro, that stomach transition made me so uncomfortable.

Yeah, that was weird. I zoomed in into her fucking midriff and then just like oh god. Yeah, that was weird, but I appreciated that they didn't even talk about Just Dance 2019 or whatever this time. I mean, they just kind of did their thing

and then left. I don't know, but last year didn't they talk about it for a bit, I'm pretty sure. teen or whatever this time. There's nothing to say. We developed dancing. Now when you dance, you dance more. I was so sure. I was legit so excited because I was like, oh dude, the panda's going to take his fucking

head off and it's going to be Aisha Tyler. That would have been amazing. That would have been amazing. And she gives the rest of the presentation in a panda body suit. That would have been so sick. That would have been amazing. Oh, fuck. I'm sad. I'm excited for next year.

I'm excited for next year when they steal our idea. Feel free to steal that idea. That one's free. If they don't do it at the next Ubisoft conference, we will. Not only is it free, it's fucking great. David will pay you.

You won't. No? Yes. No. You said it, not me. Yes. Beyond Good and Evil 2. I really like that.

I really like it. Everything I learn about that game, I really like. You like that they're... I'm really excited. Yes. I love, everything I, I learned about that game. I really like that. They're really excited. I love that. They're doing a treasure planet crossover. Oh my God.

It's everything I wanted. I Joseph got a little bit of here and I was like, is he going to be playable? Oh, fuck off Cameron. Are we going to talk about the, uh, yes.

The space monkey program, right? What is it? Hit box. No, no, no. What is it called? Oh, the record. about the yes the space monkey program right hitbox what is it called hit record I think it's sick I have very mixed feelings about it because

it's them what do you guys think exactly they're gonna do so basically what it is is that art assets like 3D assets, audio assets like music, murals, character designs are outsourced to the community rather than done by the developers. Well, some of them. Some of them. Yeah, some of them. Some of them, obviously. But the thing is, the thing about that is, depending on how many of those they use,

this could be cool or this could be so fucking scummy. A fucking mess. Not only a mess, it's going to be a mess. It's 100% going to be a mess. I feel like they're going to curate very hard. They've got to be very good curation. But is it going to be worth it for them in the long run well it depends on how much of it they're going to use because the pot of money that they're splitting up to pay the people that they're outsourcing to

is not significant it is wait they're paying people if they weren't paying people this would unequivocally be so shitty this would be be awful. It would be awful if they weren't paying people. That is for exposure. That is for exposure work. That's so shitty. I thought it was just to be a part of the game. Like if you wanted to make music and submit it to the game. No. That is shitty.

If you submit it and then they if they're interested they're going to say. Well it's a collaborative effort so if they're interested they'll probably contact you and like probably alter the product in some way like so that it is consistent with the game

which does make me hope that it won't be a fucking clusterfuck of assets that don't match like when you when someone mods the shit out of Skyrim or something and they think it looks amazing but there's no artistic like unity to it at all so it looks yeah fucking awful i mean but it just depends of of like where they start and stop at like community like collaboration assets it's like it's it's gonna depend on their curation it's

going to depend again it's going to depend on curation and it's going to depend on how many fucking assets they use because the pot that they're splitting up is $50,000 yeah it's exactly that's it it's very it's not very much and they said they have a whole universe a whole universe thing there's like

they they made it sound like they're going to be needing a lot of assets so you're going to be needing a lot of assets. So you're going to be payment in crumbs. Yeah. It's cool in concept, but in practice

it's not going to work. So the way I viewed it when they first announced it, the way I understood it was like, I thought it was going to be like No Man's Sky type of thing where you find the planet, you name it. No, no, no. They're asking for assets. Like actual art, actual music.

Music. Like for people to make the music in the game that they're selling. Like for an example they're going to have a radio in the game and then they want you to make a song for the radio that's going to play on the radio. Yeah, and I think that's cool to play on the radio. Yeah.

Yeah. And I think that's cool. So the other thing about Beyond Good and Evil, which I thought was interesting, it's not shared world, open world. It's co-op. Like, that's what they've said. Yeah, okay. Which is good, I think. Good. Definitely good.

That means the game might eventually come out. Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I was like, this game's going to come out. Oh, my God. How much or how many players is the co-op? yeah that's what I was thinking I was like this game is going to come out oh my god how many players is the co-op I assume 4 maximum I assume 4 probably that would be cool

they showed gameplay that really surprised me they never really showed gameplay they showed gameplay last year no they did they did last year did they show combat last year. They showed... Yes. Did they show combat last year? That's what I'm saying. No, they didn't show combat.

They showed the fucking engine. They didn't show fucking gameplay. Yeah, the monkey was like... The monkey flied. The monkey flied. Okay, but they showed, like, actual gameplay this year. Yeah, yeah, I know, I know, I know. I agree. He was an actual space monkey. It looks really cool, and I never played Beyond Good and Evil 1, so I'm interested.

But I think opening up your... Opening up asking for art murals for your M-rated video game that contains animal people is asking for a lot of trouble. I didn't even think of that. Oh, fuck. Avery, what the fuck? Act like I'm the only one who thought that.

Act like it's not going to be a problem. It's going to be a problem. Like, for sure. Why would that be a problem, though, if they're gonna, like, check hard, but Kyle, I'm saying that someone's gonna have to sift through it. There's someone checking that.

Someone's going to have to deny so much of that. I mean, imagine how much they're getting paid. Not much. Not much. Not very much at all. It's gonna be an intern, just, like, fucking looking at Furrypoint, just being like, no. I don't know. Not very much at all. It's gonna be an intern just, like, fucking looking at furry porn.

Just be like, no. Whoa. I don't know. Cameron, you win there, not me. Avery, come on. Avery. Avery. I was talking about really edgy Winnie the Pooh art.

I honestly, ugh, I have high hopes for good and evil twice. Also, because they fucking said, we nailed it! After they went offstage. It was so cute. Also, the mics. They're genuine. Or they're really good at faking it. They didn't know their mics

were on, Avery. They did not. There's no way. I know. I'm cautiously, I'm nervous about the curation thing. Cautiously optimist. Yeah, I guess, yeah. Yo, David, do you

know the guy who makes the audio for the Ubisoft conference, by the way? Because they did a terrible job. What the fuck? What are you implying? He's probably from LA. What do you want? What the fuck are you implying right now, Cameron? It's Ubisoft.

Hey, David, you're shit. I'm sure everyone you know is also shit in audio. I'm saying French-Canadian. That's not what he was saying at all. That was not what I'm saying. Don't put fake words in my fake mouth. Did you say stop putting words in my fake mouth? The audio engineers are from LA they work for the theater

but they're bad I mean not as bad as okay I mean yes but yes but you said it not me Cameron you're saying all kinds of fucked up shit right now so that we don't have to this is

you're the nostalgia critic of the podcast man it changes every day anyway trials i'll try trials because it looks like why he why he throw himself on this stand i don't know look man because that was sick that was fucking sick i That was fucking sick. I was laughing so hard. No, Trials is fun. And I wasn't crazy about Trials Fusion, but this looks more like Evolution than Fusion, so I'm excited about it. I mean, it wasn't Trials Fusion just Trials, though?

No, Trials Fusion had a... It was like a weird art style change, and the physics was kind of different. Okay. It was in a weird art style change and like the physics was kind of different. Okay. It was in the future. It was in the future. And it wasn't as good. It looks good.

Looks fun. Dude, he accidentally fell. He didn't purposely fall, David. What? Shut the fuck up. Shut up, Kyle. Shut up, Kyle. It just so happened that that stand was really breakable. It was fucked up that you would laugh at a guy who had a horrible accident on stage. Yeah, I can't believe they recovered that well, though.

They, like, after having such a big accident. What about the fucking skull and crossbones? Skulls. Oh, it looks cool. It looks good. Is that boats? Is that boats? It looks cool.

That's boats. That is boat boys. That game mode looks really interesting. Like the whole, like you team up to take down. Like it sounds like the fucking, it sounds like the division, like first dark zone trailer where it's like you're with your friends to take down the enemy. And then like you like turn on your friends like, no, David, what are you doing? Then it'll probably have the same issue of like the big bad. the big issue will just kill you too the division's dark zone is that

there's literally no reason to attack other players in it um so like it so like it make it i think it's gonna work a lot better because you only get like only one person can get the loot or whatever so that's super interesting is that true well i don't know or whatever. So that's super interesting. Is that true? Well, I don't know if it's true. That's the thing. Like, if it is like that, then that's gonna work well. But if it's not, it's like, why would you ever? No, I think it would work best if it wasn't one person gets the loot, because

if it's one person gets the loot, you can always expect the other person to try and fight you for it. Yeah, that's the game mode, though. If it's shared, then it's like a graze thing. But Cameron, what he's saying is, but then there's no point in not betraying. Yeah, that's the game mode though. If it's shared, then it's like a great thing. But Cameron, what he's saying is, but then there's no point in not betraying. Yeah, but like it's not dynamic. It's not, Cameron,

Cameron, Cameron, it's not dynamic if they are always going to betray you. No, no, no, I get that, I get that, but I'm saying for a game mode, I'm like, I don't think that's the whole game. I mean, we don't know yet. Maybe it is the whole game. Well, you can incentivize. You can be like, there's a reason.

So, say the reward is reaped by everyone who does it, but evenly distributed. And if you kill the other people, then you get a bigger chunk. Then it's incentivized. It's incentivized, but you don't have to do it.

Right. Right. I don't know. We'll see, I guess. That makes sense. That makes sense. But you don't have to do it. Like. Right. Yeah. Right. So like. Yeah. It's. I don't know. We'll see I guess. It looks cool.

It looks like a lot of fun. It's cool. Great. I'm excited for it. What do you guys think of Transference? Um. Nothing. Elijah.

I think nothing of it. I genuinely have no opinion. Yeah. I straight up don't. It's a psych game. So like I should be interested. But I'm not. Fucking Elijah. I just want to. I just, I straight up don't. It's a psych game, so I should be interested, but I'm not. Fucking Elijah.

I just want to have a virtual dad. You feel me? Yeah. I mean, you can by playing transference. Yeah. He's your dad, but maybe he's a robot. Brendan really is the sexy Cameron then. What?

What? He's a virtual dad. And now for the rest of the episode brendan will be just joins the call god all right anybody got opinions about assassin's creed odyssey i think it looks good it looks like uh assassin's creed and i'm not interested in it dude i think the world looks cool but it looks cool it looks like assassin's creed mass effect kind of thing that they're going origins origins was apparently pretty good yeah origins was good because it had a lot of new stuff but it doesn't seem like they're they're adding new stuff again they changed the combat i mean the combat's changing in odyssey because they're they're making it so

there's no shield uh anymore oh you can't like shield there's no shield combat um yeah it just looks like they're trying to like that's fucking weird I also think that's weird that is weird like why would shields be more prevalent in Egypt than Greece I don't know cause you're a fucking there's Spartans in there

they said that they didn't want it's not very assassin-y they said that they didn't want turtling to be like the main fucking, uh, like mode of like, I mean, I guess so. As long as it's just,

you never use a shield instead of like, Oh yeah, no, you see in the gameplay that there's, there's enemies with shields. Yeah. It's just, you don't ever use a shield.

You have like two swords or like a sword and a knife or something. All right. Well, I'm fine with that. I think, I think it looks, I think it's in a good time period. Yeah. No, I a sword and a knife or something. Alright, well I'm fine with that. I think it looks I think it's in a good time period. I think it's a really good choice of era.

It's a good It's an especially good era for Greece but also it looks fucking gorgeous. It is pretty but I'm not downgraded. Well, I mean We don't know yet. I've never really liked Assassin's Creed games. I'm going to't probably I've never it's coming out this year

Assassin's Creed games I'm gonna be honest I've never cared I never liked them either but Brotherhood had really good multiplayer that is true this is them like

fully transitioning to RPG though cause Origins was like that's why Origins was like RPG liked that's why I'm a bit more

excited and this is like straight up like you've got different like you can choose if you're a man or a woman and also they have actual fantasy uh like elements in this one right there was a minotaur games yeah there's a minotaur in this game there's there's there's mythological elements in every assassin's creed i don't know honestly i don't know why you're trying to get the apple of eden like it's it's... I don't... Yeah, that's true.

This is a precursor race. I guess this is a first fantasy non-precursor race thing, I guess. Is it? I have not kept up, so I have no idea. It might be the first monster. Yeah. I think it is the first monster, right? Yeah.

From what I can imagine. I mean, I kind of wish they made Assassin's Creed Odyssey, but they didn't call it Assassin's Creed. Wish they made Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Nice rap. Jump on your hat. On my hat? The facial animation for that game, too, was pretty bad.

It's an Assassin's Creed game and an RPG, so it's not surprising. I know, but it just seemed worse than any other before. The timing wasn't even right in the mouth, but we didn't even look at all similar to what they were saying. I mean, it's procedurally generated animations. They made this game, like, it's... That's not a joke.

He's not joking. What? Do you not know how animations work in RPGs? Literally don't have time to like hand animate everything. We don't. Yeah. It's. There's too much content.

No time. So. Boof. Procedure. All right. I don't know. Because one of it looked like she was. One of it looks close.

Like she was actually trying to say the thing she was. And so I was like. That's what procedurally generated animation leads to. Sometimes it looks really good, other times it looks really bad. It's a developing technology. The Witcher 3 is procedural. Their technology is incredible.

They have the best procedural animation technology out there, pretty much. Yeah. Alright. Sony. Are you talking about PC gaming? Wait, unless you guys have any we talked about PC gaming wait before that Yakuza you guys have any opinions about Starlink no no I like no no Starlink actually looks like it would be a game if it Didn't have the figures like hi fucking hot take what a darling looks like it would be a game if it didn't have the pictures

Sony I mean looks like it would be a game if it didn't have the figures. Sony. I mean, I don't disagree, Kyle. Okay. I'm sorry. I thought that it was very strange and unnecessary. Yeah, unnecessarily strange.

So weird. It was really cool that they like had the whole the church can we just say it was the church I thought it was really strange

and then the transition happened and I was like this is sick but why in the church still and then they did the 20 minute not 20

it was maybe 15 minutes like 15 minutes to switch to an actual venue why yeah yeah it was so jarring I just viewed it all as pointless because like Like 15 minutes? Like, intermission? 15 minutes to switch to an actual venue? Why? Yeah. Yeah.

It was so jarring. I just viewed it all as pointless, because, like, just to set up the atmosphere of the church for that one scene didn't seem worth it for me, but to be fair, that was, like, the main big thing Sony announced. No, it was not. I think they announced one thing that was way, way more anticipated. All right, you're right. Destiny 2 DLC was way better.

Yeah, that's what I fucking thought, Kyle. I thought he was talking about the Black Ops 3 DLC. Oh, dude, they're bringing firing range back. I mean, that's actually a pretty big thing, right? Because it's all the Black Ops 1 DLC. They do that every year. It's like the third game that those maps

have showed up on. Oh. I thought that was a thing for this game. Never mind. So, are we going to talk about Last of Us 2 at all? Because I thought the gameplay looks... Mediocre? What?

I thought it looked cool. Do you want to cut me off? God damn it. I thought it looked mediocre. No, no, no. You think it'll... No, it doesn't. I think it looks like the last of us one the gameplay but like they have done so much it looks like a trailer for last of us one yeah that's the thing on the gameplay that's the thing that's what

that's a ed told me I told me they lie a lot it's not okay so there's a there's a thing that I feel like people get misconstrued a lot, especially like people who play games. Are you going to call out Ed? Are you going to call out Ed? Yeah, sure, I guess. I'll call out Ed. I don't fucking care.

If I'm in the streets, Ed, there's no fucking rules there. No. He hates women and minorities. He does do that. He does do that. God damn it. Okay, so the thing about E3 presentations is that a lot of the time people think it's dishonesty outright.

Like that they're outright making things up to lie to try and sell their games. That's not why the downgrades happen. What you see in an E3 demo is a goal what they what they goal yeah so they polish the shit out of it to act out these scripted events because that is the goal of what the game will be like but the game is often not obviously not finished so the the game is obviously not finished. So they polish the shit out of an E3 demo, uh,

to be played out in a very specific way so that they can show what they're hoping the game is like when it's done. And oftentimes shit don't go the way they don't meet the goal. They don't, it just, it's just shit happens because it's a giant fuck. The industry, every game is developed by hundreds of fucking people now.

So, and like money's an issue and due dates are an issue and you gotta, you have to cut things. You have to cut things, you have to make sacrifices and you generally, there are exceptions. Doom being a very notable exception. Most games don't meet their goals. It's not like them trying to fuck you over that's not what the point of it is they're not lying to you they're telling you honestly what they want it to

be but it might not they might not manage it is basically what i'm shit shit happens in big projects see the thing the thing about that though is that they've seen in interviews since then that they have like made heavy like strides in like their AI development and they've focused on that a lot. Well, good, because the AI in The Last of Us is bad. It's actually not terrible. It's not good. It's, I mean, yeah, but, like, it's not bad, like, I wouldn't say it's bad AI. Yeah, I guess.

But the thing is that if, like, the way that it looks like they're doing the AI is really interesting the way that they communicate with each other and stuff so it'll be really good if it's in the game and it works like that but obviously we don't know at this point Naughty Dog has always been very good at tech very good at technology

I'm super surprised we did not get a release date I am like I was 100% sure i'm glad like i'm glad we did i'm glad we didn't because to me that reads as sony is giving them enough time to get as close to this goal as possible yeah yeah i agree it seems like they're having a much more lenient deadline with this which is good i wrote something in my, Last of Us 2 is the real softcore survival game. Because of the start of that demo. Yeah.

Hell yeah. Shut up. Oh, fuck. You're such a fucking idiot, Cameron. Cameron, it's fucked up that you would say that just because they're lesbians. What? What? Whoa.

Women and minorities. What anyways ghost of tsushima that looks good yeah really beautiful i think i think it looks beautiful i don't hey i don't know well the thing is it's sucker punch sucker punch make very good games So I'm I'm excited optimistic about it somewhere that is I mean that is true. They have a very very good record No, so far. We don't know if it's an RPG or not or an action. Yeah action It's open world it and sucker punch is good at open worlds I don't know I what I saw didn't impress me. That's not true.

It didn't impress me. It didn't impress me either. You can play the game entirely in Japanese. Oh, man. Wait, can you actually? That was a complaint I had. I said I would want to play the game subtitled. Yeah, no, you can play the game completely subtitled in Japanese.

Yes! That's actually really cool. This is kind interview afterwards. That's actually really cool. Because I was also like, this is kind of weird. That's actually really cool. But yeah, there they are. That's actually really cool. You can play the full game in Japanese. Never mind.

This is the Yakuza game I wanted. Oh, we didn't talk about Yakuza on PC. Yakuza on PC for $20. Go fucking buy it, idiot. That's actually unreal. Yeah, no, I pre-ordered Yakuza 0. Yes! Yeah, $20. Are they reducing the price That's actually unreal. Yeah. No, I pre-ordered Yakuza 0. Yes. Yeah, 20 bucks.

How, are they reducing the price on PlayStation? No. No. It's fucking weird. It's really strange. I think, you know what I think it is? I think they don't think there's interest in it on PC, so they're making the price really low to try and entice people.

Straight up. But they don't need. Straight up. They don't need to. For $20? For $20? You should buy that game, like, right now. Go pre-order it. I pre-ordered Yakuza 0.

That's the first game in a long time I've pre-purchased. That's fucking crazy. It's worth it. It's insane. I can't believe that it's Yes, actually, Kyle. Since Overwatch. Yike. Alright. But, dude, it's a good game. Control?

I called the Remedy game when I saw it I was like oh my god it reeks of Remedy in my notes I said wow this game looks so much like Quantum Break then like right after I wrote that down it shows the Remedy thing

and I'm like oh my fucking god of course like I told Ed I told Ed I told Ed this is quantum break 2 and then he was like he was like you're stupid and then it showed remedy and I won

well it wasn't quantum break 2 so you still didn't win I was closer than him I don't remember what he said but it was probably stupid probably this is a woman I'm not interested in David do you want to talk about than him. I don't remember what he said, but it was probably stupid. Probably. Alright. This is a woman I'm not interested in. David, did you want to talk about Resident Evil 2?

This is... Oh my god. There was actual gameplay that they showed. Like a 15... 17 minute demo. The guy that was playing it was fucking terrible at video games.

This is what I want. The guy that was playing it was fucking terrible at video games. He was terrible at games. This is what I want. This is what I wanted from a Resi 2 remake. This is the perfect... This is perfect. It looks so good. Oh my god. Biggest surprise. I was more excited for Resi 2 than I was for the fucking Devil May Cry 5.

Really? Yes. I've not played Resident Evil 2, so I have no connection to it. Dude, don't even play the original. I'm not planning to. Play the remake. I'll probably play it when it comes out.

Look at the gameplay demo when we're done. Okay. It looks fantastic. Anyways, Squanch Games. Actually, I was going to talk about the kingdom uh the kingdom hearts 3 trailer what was with okay the okay music and like just the voices and voice and the voices but no sound effects it was really weird so weird it threw me off i couldn't help but be reminded of what do you guys remember how last year Like a year and a half ago or something

The mummy The mummy trailer got leaked Yeah that's what I thought of That's exactly That's all I could think of The entire time I just thought of the weird Tom Cruise scream Yeah

Can you splice that in here David Sorry Can you splice that in here, David? Sorry? Can you splice that in here? The weird Tom Cruise- I'm just gonna splice it twice. Please do. God. Every time we say Tom Cruise, Tom Cruise. Oh my god.

Uh, dude, I don't know, man. Kingdom Hearts 3, I've been waiting- I've been waiting- I've been waiting, dude. I've never played a Kingdom Hearts game when they announced that every single game is going to be in a single like collector's edition on PS4 that's perfect

that is perfect I missed because there's do you know how many fucking Kingdom Hearts games yeah on like the fucking that's a great deal on On, like, portable games, on, like, PSP and shit. Yeah, and they're actually good games, because I played, like... Are they? Oh, yeah.

Dream Drop Distance is apparently one of the better ones, because, like, the movement got overhauled. And, like, the thing is, every Kingdom Hearts game, from one to the other, usually there's a huge jump in quality like kingdom hearts one to two kingdom hearts one is actually like it aged so poorly because kingdom

hearts two is just like a such a huge improvement and they just kept doing it with every installment of course on portable it doesn't always it is it it's not always true because on portable they have to down downscale downgrade limitations of the platform but usually there's huge jumps in quality and huge jumps in failure in the story, but let's not talk about the fucked up story because the gameplay is just great. I love Kingdom Hearts. So the other thing that I thought was funny about Kingdom Hearts is that they showed more gameplay

at the Sony press conference than they did at Square Enix. Square Enix, they just showed the same trailer that they showed. Yeah, they even announced another world they announced Pirates of the Caribbean made a return looks weird

realistic people you should look at the Pirates of the Caribbean world on PS2 it's worse it's worse because everybody's like PS2 graphics humans and then

there's anime. I'm excited. I'm excited. Death Stranding. Oh, we saw gameplay. Kinda. Kinda. It's open world.

It's open world. What do you guys think of that game? I guess. You play as a delivery guy? What do you guys think of that game? I guess. You play as a courier, it seems. Yeah, yeah. I, the more I see of this game,

the less interested I am. When it doesn't come to the story, because the story is, I mean, What is the story? What do you mean? What it, The story is fetus.

It's so, it's so weird. I'm'm calling this now the gameplay is going to be a spiritual successor to viva pinata i'm my lord but the gameplay looks like it's going to be stealth gameplay i know it's it's stealth gameplay but when you die you create a crater um where you were which is i don't know how the fuck's that gonna work like i don't know man how the fuck is that going to work I don't think it looks fun to play who knows

we don't know anything yet there's probably more to it than that we saw a gun we saw a gun we saw stealth definitely we saw a weird fucking umbrella that wouldn't work like at all but it looks cool it was a solar panel umbrella i'm pretty sure it was a solar

panel because it seems like everything is powered by either babies or fucking solar panels what do you guys think is a more reasonable method of power. Oh, babies. Babies. Babies. Take the age out of their face. What year do you think we'll be hearing people brag about their baby-cooled PCs? Oh, my God. Soon, hopefully. Soon. God, I hope so. I want a baby-cooled PC.

When Death Stranding comes out. Limited edition, you get a baby-cooled PC. Oh, God. What if the limited edition is just one of the gross babies? Oh, it's just like, you open the box. What if it's a capsule to put your actual

baby in? Oh, my God. And then you can power your fucking radar to... It can power your fucking Apple Watch. It powers your radars that finds adult shadow fetuses what the fuck is this game how do we like there's i don't even feel like there's anything for us to

talk about there's nothing to say because we could dive into what we think the symbolism is but like it's so nebulous right now there's not really much point in speculating as to what the symbolism all means you gotta carry like big boxes did they show a release date? no I'm convinced this isn't going to this isn't a game it's just a big prank

he only chose his engine two years ago like how fucking like and then he every year he shows a trailer. Like, it's crazy that, like, they're even showing shit. This should be, like, two years away at least. Yeah, it should.

It should. It should. You did a good job of building hype, though. Yeah, for sure. Because no one fucking knows what it is. Sure. I mean, I'm interested. And we're saying fucking huge actors.

It's insane that fucking Lea Seydoux is in it. I don't know if that's how you pronounce her name or not. I'm like, a mix of interest and uninterest when it comes to that game. Yeah, I feel like. I feel the same way.

I'm intrigued. Certainly intrigued. It has my attention. Yeah, for sure. I listened to it. What? Well, because it got my attention. So I'll listen to it.

I'll be like, what do you have to say, this trending? And then this trending is going to say... And I'm going to be like, okay, bitch, you shut up. And that's going to be it. Nioh 2. Oh, yeah, actual Nioh 2. Actual Nioh 2. Nioh, but without the boner.

I like Nioh more than Dark Souls. I haven't played Nioh. I really like Nioh. Nioh has... I've heard Nioh has really good level design for the first area, and then really bad level design after that, and bad bosses. I literally... I stopped playing once I got up to the centipede boss because it's really bad i've heard that that is like the worst part of the entire game it's the worst i've heard it's

not even like i've heard it's yeah i've heard it's one of the worst boss fights ever i'm gonna be honest i only played the first level because oh, David. I loved it so much. And I keep telling myself I'm going to buy it. And then I never do. Now you're making me sad. There's that new Squanch Tindo game. That really did not hit the mark for me. Like what?

Squanch Tindo game. The one by Justin Roiland. It's always the same the same joke it did not hit the mark at all for me Trevor Saves the Universe yeah what is it called Trevor Saves the Universe

oh that's the name I just called it the Squanch game I called it Bathtub Guy I'm not interested in. I am not interested in it. It just felt so off. It felt so off as well. I don't know. The Bathtub Guy was kind of funny, but like

after that it was... But the thing is, I feel like the thing is, it's always the same joke. It's always a thing in a thing doing something, and then the thing doing something's like, I'm a thing! I'm doing something! Oh, look doing something's like I'm a thing I'm doing something oh look at this video game that's actually so accurate

that's so accurate I'm going to level with you that's why I've not been able to get into Rick and Morty Rick and Morty isn't like that though that's the thing I've only seen the first like two episodes of Rick and Morty and I couldn't get into it I mean it's not and the biggest meme is

fucking Pickle Rick so I mean well yeah Pickle Rick's like the worst joke. Well it's literally what you just said. You literally just did it's a thing going look at me I'm a thing doing it I'm Pickle Rick It's literally the intro to the thing. It's that one

joke and then it fucking took off I know I'm not saying it's dumb I I'm not it's not even the whole episode that episode is actually good yeah it sounds decent it's so sad that people ugh I've not seen more than past the first two episodes do you guys think that it's satire

on comedy shut up no god is there anything else we need to talk about for this evening Spider-Man 3 on comedy. Shut up. No. God. Is there anything else we need to talk about for this evening? Spider-Man 3?

Oh, Spider-Man. Spider-Man looks good. I, the web slinging looks fucking, web swinging, sorry,

looks fucking great. It looks good. Yeah. It looks really good. They're doing CineSix. It looks like something I want to play.

They're doing CineSix, like something I want to play Mr. Negative my favorite Spider-Man villain there's nothing really to talk about apart from it looks fun Mr. Negative you're in the game? shut up you are way more negative

way more negative than you you are so much more negative than I am, David. True. Okay. Is there anything we missed? I think we're on to Nintendo. Yeah. Oh, shit.

I forgot about Nintendo. So what did Nintendo talk about? Smash. Smash. Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. What else did they talk about first?. Smash. Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. What else did they talk about first? Because I didn't take notes.

I didn't take notes, so I have no idea. Fire Emblem. Oh, Fire Emblem. They showed gameplay of it as well. Four Houses. I think. Three Houses.

It's called Three Houses. Xenoblade Chronicles DLC. I don't know. I guess. They did Pokemon. Oh, that was revealed earlier. Oh, called Three Houses. Xenoblade Chronicles DLC. I don't know. They did Pokemon. Oh, Pokemon Let's Go. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Super Mario Party though. Looks cool. Oh, yeah. Mario Party.

That looks cool. It looks fun. Okay, I guess we're going to have to... There's nothing else to talk about from Nintendo. I'm going to be honest. It looks really good. Yeah. It'm going to be honest. It looks really good. It is actually looking really good. It looks like it's... I found it strange that it was basically patch notes.

Yeah, that was... It was basically patch notes. That's why I thought Nintendo was so useless. They were talking about alternate skins and shit like that. Yeah, that was weird. They were like, oh yeah, this person's got a slightly different voice. Can you hear it? I felt like they had absolutely nothing for E3.

So they're like, we just need to make 30 minutes of content. That's all they need. That's all they need. All they needed was Smash Universe. Because it's a huge announcement. Every single character. Almost every stage. Yeah, 65 characters

that's insane plus how is it going to be balanced though I don't know only thing is what do you mean it looks like the most balanced how can you possibly make that claim based on what we've seen it seems like they actually like looked at tournaments for

once I didn't watch it I skipped through all of the explanation. Because usually every time Sakurai's like, oh, this is actually a party game. We don't want the kids to be too competitive now. I've heard confirmed there's no wave dashing or L canceling. Uh-oh. Yeah.

David takes everything he's said back instantly. Uh-oh. I mean, that's big. That is that is huge that is huge i thought it was cool that the new the new techniques were sounding cool at least there's no random tripping which was like yeah fucking oh my god why also thing about every stage has uh an omega in a battlefield which i Battlefield which I thought it was cool that stages now have Battlefield.

Omega's nice, but Battlefield I think is way more competitive. I guess because there's actual verticality. I also don't know anything about Smash. I'm basically just talking. I don't play smash yeah well I

don't I have no idea one thing about the Nintendo conference how come Richie fucking shaking the pokeball and saying like oh I think there's one inside right now like why is it a meme why isn't someone fucking made a meme out of that like like someone screaming for help and he goes oh I think there's one inside right now. This is ripe and I haven't seen it yet. It disappointed me. Cameron, make the meme, dude. Cameron, make the meme.

You are the new Dolan Dark. You can become Dolan Dark if you accept it. Absorb him. Absorb him. I'll try. Paladins is also on the Switch. Yeah, Paladins came out on the Switch. I saw that and I was like, oh shit, that's my guyins is also on on the switch yeah paladins came on i was like oh shit that's guys fortnite on the switch fun fact fun fact about uh paladins coming to switch um

i don't think any other hero shooter could actually possibly come out on the switch yeah because overwatch cannot be ported to that console because of the way rendering works in overwatch yeah it is not. It is not designed... I wouldn't want Overwatch on the Switch to be trying. Okay. You don't need to play it on the Switch if it's there, Kyle. You know what? No.

Fuck you. It can't be there for anyone. I hope it fails. There it is. It's a fucking circle. Oh, my Lord. No, but yeah, Paladin's on the Switch. Did they announce...

You can play it on the toilet. You can be shit while you take a shit. Were there any other game announcements that weren't on other platforms already? Have you guys played Overcooked 1? I've not. That game is so fun.

It's so good. Yeah. When I saw the... I played it drunk at Ferd's house. It was nice. Yeah, I want to play it. It looks cool. I'm super excited for it.

I feel like the more games that... The Switch feels like it's worth it now. Yeah. With all the games coming out, there's a lot of stuff. I used to make fun. I feel like the Switch has been worth it now. Yeah. There's kind of a lot of stuff on it now. There's a lot of stuff. I used to make fun. Yeah, I feel like it's been, like, with Mario Odyssey and, like, Bayonetta 3 and shit.

They've been hitting home runs, like, consistently on the Switch. The thing is, when it came out, I thought it would fail straight up. I also thought it would fail. I didn't think it would be supported. They had two games. Once they had Mario kart mario well they had i mean it's just like people started buying the console and then developers started being like oh shit people will buy a game if we port it to switch like like hollow blade hollow blade coming to switch switch is such a fucking good idea like

that yeah it's a perfect game for handheld. Fuck, just imagine playing that on a road trip and shit. Fuck, that'd be so good. Oh, yeah, that's a really good point. I need to finish Hollow Knight. I need to finish Hollow Knight as well, actually.

Hollow Knight's good, though. There, that's my review. And they added Minecraft, so the like, the Switch is the new is the console of the future generation. Are you serious? You better not be fucking with me. Minecraft is on Switch, yes. How did you miss the giant Mario made out of Minecraft?

Really? Yes. During the fucking presentation. How did I miss that? They also had an arc, which, like, I don't know, it looked cool. It looks like an arc, not an arc. Oh, really? I thought it was an arc. Have like, I don't know. Pixar, not arc. Have we figured out if that's official? Yeah, it is. It is official. It's made by the same people.

Wait, what? Pixar. What is Pixar? Arc, but Minecraft. Oh. Yeah. Oh, Octopath Traveler. Oh yeah, that looks... I don't play RPGs. Neither do I.

I think it looks weird. It's pretty. I think it looks weird. I hope it plays well. Well, there you go. Um, I'm trying... I'm looking. Oh, Damon X Machina?

The mech game? Oh, right! Right! The fucking cel-shaded weird mech game that looks cool I don't have anything to say about anything that Nintendo announced I'm realizing that looks cool

I don't play Smash Kelly Queen Black I don't know what that was oh yeah I don't know what that is either I've never played that it's like the thing yeah i don't know what that is either i've never played that what is quilliplea it's like a it's like the thing that looks like tower fall yeah oh oh yeah action strategy platformer yeah yeah i don't know i'm not interested by it wow that seems to be it i think that's it i think we might be done I think that's it. I think that's it. I think we might be done. I think that's about it.

I'm going to look through and see if we missed any games real quick. I don't think we did. We probably missed a game. You know what? Quite frankly, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It probably doesn't matter, right? I mean, honestly, it probably doesn't matter for me.

The only video games that matter are the ones that matter to us. Are the ones that matter to us. And if I can't spend my life savings trying to get a skin in the game, is it even a game? No. Amen. It's not. Do you want to do most anticipated games? Okay, we could do that.

Shadows Die Twice. Cyberpunk 2077. Oh, fuck. I changed my answer. There's so many games I'm hyped for, but I think it's going to have to be Kingdom Hearts 3 Resident Evil 2.

Yeah, Resident Evil 2 I think. It's looking really good. Put Leon in Smash. He'd probably get added to the game before Waluigi. Put Waluigi in Smash. put Waluigi in Tekken that would be so sick that would be amazing

yo hang on cut that out Harada Harada everyone at Harada with this podcast I'll say Beyond Good and Evil 2 listen if he says he would consider putting Taylor Swift in the game he would consider putting Waluigi. Remember when they put Ariana Grande in Final Fantasy?

That's an actual thing that happened. Anyways, Kyle? Mine's Beyond Good and Evil 2. Oh, fair enough. That's a good answer as well. That's actually... Yeah, that's a good one. Looks fun.

That's a good one. I'm excited. I think this E3 was good. I think this was a good E3. I think overall it was a good E3. Yeah, I think it was a good E3. I think overall it was a good E3. Yeah, I think it was a good E3. It was peak good and also peak bad. Do you want to know why?

Why? What? Because next year is a games year. What? Next year is a year where games are coming out. Yeah, next year is a year where hardware. Last year was a year when games were coming out, so E3 was bad. Isn't it hardware?

Next year is going to be hardware. Next year is going to be hardware announcements. I'm saying next year games are coming out. Games are going to be coming out. That's why this was, so E3 was bad. Next year's going to be hardware. Next year's going to be hardware announcements. I'm saying next year, games are coming out. That's why this was a good E3. It goes in cycles. There's three games coming out on February 22nd. Yeah, all the games that were announced the day of their conference,
