Starting point is 00:00:02 By the way, I have your thumbnail for this episode if you want. What is it? It's just the yard set with the head on camera, and we do four cameras and squeaks sitting in every chair. I like that. Love it. Oh, I'm in the thumbnail this time? You're in the thumbnail four times. Was he not?
Starting point is 00:00:30 No, the last thumbnail's called... I think I've had this thing with Squeaks for like five years. Where I've never put him in a thumbnail. It's like an ongoing thumbnail. He's just like Indian people. I was going to say. He's got a great thing. voice for YouTube.
Starting point is 00:00:45 See? Yeah, that's, it's meaner when you say it to a man who is, you got a face for podcasts. You got a face for podcast, bud. Okay. Look at you with your fucking clothes,
Starting point is 00:00:54 dude. I can't. You're calling you a butterface. You got a face for, you want to, Butterface? We're going. Is that good?
Starting point is 00:01:02 Um, I don't know if I'd call it nice. Am I not pointed? No. Point it. Okay. And then everything is in its right place. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:12 I, I don't think in five years I've ever put him in a thumbnail. And then I didn't do it, but on the yard episode, somebody, Nick, titled it, Day blew our set up. No, it says we got rated. Yes. And it was like after Fierand came through.
Starting point is 00:01:28 That was the squeaks episode. That was the squeaks episode. And it has basically nothing, like it's just a squeaks episode. I think it could, yeah, why is that? I'm asking you guys. Guy like me, guy like me, I would have put you in there. Guy who has control over it. Guy like me.
Starting point is 00:01:45 You don't know how he is, bro. You don't know how he is. I went up to him once. I said, what do you think about this thumbnail? He slapped me in the face. I believe that. The open-handed slap me in my fucking face.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Mentally, I had committed to that slap before he said it. Okay, that's being just saying. I was just ready that day. And that's how it goes. That's how it goes. I cry to say something.
Starting point is 00:02:03 I try to do something for the show. Boom. I go down. And then you get quiet. I have to get quiet. And now when you think of ideas, you start flinching. And like,
Starting point is 00:02:11 God, no, ideas are bad. Don't piss in the living room. You shouldn't have no ideas. People would click on his face, man. I click on Squeaks Daily. I click on Squeaks daily. Don't get him triggered. So you're saying, thumbnail.
Starting point is 00:02:22 So we see Squeaks. He's sitting in every chair. That should be the lowest performing. What is the title? Give me the title. Tweaks. Happy women's day. Happy women's day?
Starting point is 00:02:35 Happy women's day. Happy International Women's Day. Yeah, we recorded on International Women's Day. the day after. We don't have to fucking tell the truth. Like, what is up with you? It's March 90. You just said... It's ruined out. It's 11.37 which was an 11th start
Starting point is 00:02:51 by the way, which is interesting. It was a soft 11. Softest 11th I think I've ever experienced. I said it was normal 11th. I messaged a chat. It was almost 1130 razor sharp. No, I guess what we know. Which is almost still. Still almost.
Starting point is 00:03:07 First I want to think Vladimir Lennon. Lenin. Oh, here we go. What did he do? I mean, I know what he did, but why in particular? Invented International Women's Day. Did he? Yeah, that was him.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Nobody knows why we celebrate Women's Day. That's so, then he had a stroke right after, so you got to think about that. It's because of Vlad. He had a stroke thinking about women too hard and all the struggles that go through. You know his body is still preserved in Moscow? That's Walt Disney. No. It's also Lenin.
Starting point is 00:03:33 You know his eyes, because when we pass away, our eyes sort of melt. Do you know this? No, I didn't. Well, something to look forward to you. You can think. about it, our eyes are filled with fluid. Your eyes melt. The first thing to go, they just melt away. But Lenin's
Starting point is 00:03:47 body is filled with fake eyes and you can go look at him in the glass case. Well, you can't. Well, you shouldn't. But there's, he's in the glass case. Wait, you could look at him? He's displayed in a glass case like Princess Selenia. Wow. They preserve like it. She's not displayed.
Starting point is 00:04:03 All of it. And they could. Like Princess Celinaa, they could revive Lenin whatever they want. They just don't even talk about it. They don't even talk about it. Their DM hasn't told them yet. Is it cold in there? Or is he just like souped up with like embalming stuff?
Starting point is 00:04:17 I mean he is now a hundred over like almost a hundred year old corpse. So I think it's just a lot. It's mostly chemicals. He's on Trinth. That's disgusting. They fixed Doritos. It's naked Doritos now. I want naked linen.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Naked Lenin. I want real naked let. Oh, his eyes are closed. So there's probably little gumbulls in there that fill out his eyes. But yeah, that's the inventor of International Women's Day, which I didn't know. This is the kind of bed Aden would order input in his house. Oh my God. I think every man.
Starting point is 00:04:45 It's a Swedish company. He's an awesome bed. Every man who makes an international Wednesday should get a mausoleum. I think so. I think it's fair. Okay. Would you want a mausoleum, Squeaks? 100%.
Starting point is 00:04:54 I want, Well, I want to be, I want to bring sadness when I die. I want me to be like, everyone thinks of me in a very sad way. You just want a happy funeral. I don't want like a happy mausoleum. I want it to be fucking depressing. A sad mausoleum. What do you take?
Starting point is 00:05:08 What gets buried with you in the mausoleum? My, uh, probably my Nintendo 64 controller and my wife. Oh, it's alive. However she is. If she is still alive when I die, sorry, tough luck. Sorry. Sorry. You buried with all your toys and your wife looking really sad?
Starting point is 00:05:26 In case in lead. Now is it a sadness? Is it a pity? Is it like, you want people to feel pity? No, like deep sadness. Like, oh, we had it so good. Okay. Walking alive.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Regret. Regret. Regret. Regret that like they didn't say something to me or something. I'm gonna start recording YouTube videos and schedule them for like 50 years out. As a reminder. Hey, I'm no longer here guys.

Starting point is 00:09:18 I think he, I think it's true. Isn't that the fun fact? He died of the toilet? He died on the toilet. How else could you die on the toilet other than string? Yeah, he had a heart attack at 42, which is pretty bad. He strained. It was his straining.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Bro, he had a heart attack from straining. I will say if you're on the toilet, you're probably not like at a resting heart rate. Imagine, bad diet. You're a rock star. You're pumping out a heart. L shape. You read it you read an Uber fax. We're taking it we're taking the AI one today. This shit's on the soby

Starting point is 00:10:01 rivalry in nutshell and it's Ginsberg and Don Draper and it's like I feel bad for you I don't think about you at all right and then someone most of people are having fun with this This one guy's like tried one episode of the yard just couldn't. Too much like hopping in the middle of a conversation amongst good friends and being completely lost, damn go figure. Guy who doesn't have friends, I don't like this.
Starting point is 00:10:20 The most I hear of Ludwig is from lemonade stand and that's already too much for me, which I didn't like. No politic here. I looked at this guy's profile. He uploaded a picture of him completing a jigsaw puzzle of Bob's burgers. Wait, what's wrong with that? I love Lovinaugger's. That sounds awesome.
Starting point is 00:10:37 So I don't know. I just want to say that's your shooters. I'm going to be honest, I think, I think this commenter is my girlfriend. Oh my God. And then I commented, I was like, guy like you needs his tech news with a little bit of spice. And I get that. Guy like you needs a little bit of fun and take a walk on the wild side of tech news. Crazy guy.
Starting point is 00:11:01 I bet you got a Bob's Burger's puzzle. He deleted his ability, or people's ability to look at it. his profile after the... Dude, no. Wait, that's so sad. See, you think that's sad, but I don't think that's sad. And you think it's sad because you're a man who hasn't spent a day on that subreddit. No, I don't.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I don't. Never. Why even have a subreddit for a podcast? I don't have it. It's not mine. It just exists. I don't know that. You guys don't police it.
Starting point is 00:11:29 No. You got to police it, man. Because then Tel Aviv gets involved. Yeah. Tel Aviv is involved in that subreddit. I'll say it right now. He does. Hello, Iran.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I know where the missiles are coming from. The Lemonade Shade podcast subreddit. Well, I actually, I have beef. I have beef with you. Oh, bring it on. You sure? Let's go. Besides that Stump Town bullshit, which we handled in there.
Starting point is 00:11:53 We handled that in there. It's fine. It's not a bad bean. You already downgraded from it's one of your favorites. You guys cornered me in there and you're like, you're a piece of shit. It's like McDonald's for fucking coffee. You're like frying.
Starting point is 00:12:06 McDonald's coffee ribs. Just to wrap it up, I mean, what's your brand then? What's that? What's your brand? You're so haughty that Stumptown blows. What's your brand? It's a cycling, a rotation of artisan beans. Pussy.
Starting point is 00:12:22 It's Fills. I like Phil's. It's Fills. Fills is ass, dude. You can't say you like Thumbtown and it's like Phil's is the fucking, what you're doing? It's a lateral move. Dude, I'm taking the lemonade stand,

Starting point is 00:12:41 Phil's coffee. Whatever. Silicon Valley fucking coffee. Chill on Phil's. What the hell is this? Private equity coffee is what you got. It's all my. Give me a break.
Starting point is 00:12:50 All these tech while they're laying people off. Hey, they're having that Phil's coffee with a Z at the end. First of all, Skyler made your coffee today. And you don't mean to have a good day. They don't be to have a good day. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:00 That's a W. Yeah. But not Phil's. And in the app, they tell you how many baristas you've met. Really? Yeah, what does he have been? Fucking catch one.
Starting point is 00:13:08 What? Is this real? I'm not getting. This is Phil's? This is Phil's. I'm off. This is your brand. I take that.
Starting point is 00:13:15 I am wrong. Because it's Silicon Valley, bro. Everything's a tech company. They don't serve coffee. They serve any. Some bullshit like that. Some billionaires never gone to a coffee shop. It's like, what if there was an app to meet your barista?
Starting point is 00:13:28 That would be so close. I visited three stores. I've tried three blends. And I've met 31 baristas. Dude, not very daring in his coffee tries. Honestly, I thought it'd be more. I just don't go to Phil's that much. I thought you'd be getting wobbly.
Starting point is 00:13:41 You went 31 times, at least. The guy who asked for that app is going to be alive with me, Larry here. It's involved. We can visit him. It's one of the ice coffee. I was like, yeah, I invented the Phil's barista experience. The Phil's app, someone needs to be punished for it. Because I did the math one.
Starting point is 00:14:00 After you order on the app for pickup, you go and it's like, here are your points. You paid money here. Here are some points. And I never once question, like, what are these points working towards? Like, what is the end of these points? What is, like, what is the reward? And it's, it's one free coffee.
Starting point is 00:14:15 You get six points when you get an order. You need, like, 500 for one free coffee. What? Like, you need hundreds of orders. Yeah, but you're the film. Point to stomp town. Point to stomp down. I'll use a stamp card.
Starting point is 00:14:30 Ten coffees, one free copy. Beautiful. That's great. Can I tell you, I have a new strat. What's that? So Blue Bottle does the same thing. Okay. Is it 300 points? American or Japanese?
Starting point is 00:14:40 American Blue Bottle. You need 300 points for a free coffee. 150 to give a free coffee to a friend. So I've been asking the homeless got to come in for me. Wow. And I say, buddy, I'm at 150. Yeah. Okay.

And you'll get six points of coffee. Look 10 points for every $1 spent. So it's a hundred twenty dollars. Look at this fucking Facebook ass website. This is so many orders. What's the new uh the design philosophy that's out the door? It's like Memphis something. Oh, uh, corporate or Memphis. Corporate Memphis or something. Is that shit. And now, now it's changing. Iran, I have a second location where the Phil's coffee. Every Phil's coffee location.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Wait, so what's your beef? You want your beef? You want your my beef? Sweeks. Oh, bring it on. Two Stumptown stamp cards. Fully ready for free coffee. You want this? Yeah, I'll take it. What do you do for me? Nothing, actually. Nothing for these. You want something for nothing? Two free coffee from Stump Town.
Starting point is 00:15:56 It's just being a friend, I guess. I guess friendship, but that's fine. I guess everything's transactional. I don't know. Obviously, transaction. You're a Twitch streamer. It's L.A, bro. And that's why I have a beef with you. Okay. So you were, I was playing Minecraft a couple weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:16:08 I was going on an amazing journey with Barnabas. He comes into my chat, squeaks in my chat. I'm a pleasure. I love this is so pleasure, to feel his pleasure to me. Thanks for pleasureing him. I check his chat logs,
Starting point is 00:16:19 because I was like, you must be bored as fuck talking in this chat. And he had this comment that said, like months earlier. He said, I love Northern Lion, but his viewers are the Rick and Morty viewers of Twitch. And,
Starting point is 00:16:30 and I was like, bang. Yeah, bang. I thought about this and I was like, what the fuck are your viewers? What are they? They're the ex videos gooners of Twitch. No? Yes, they are.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Because if you go into his chat, it's people with little VIP badges and whatever going, oh, hey, pooky bear, pokey, pokey, face fuck me, waga. Will you face fuck me? And then he reads it. And then he reads it. And he goes, he goes, face fuck you. I can't do that. I'm not going to face fuck you.
Starting point is 00:17:00 I can't get a face fuck you. And then he runs it down double doors. Yeah. And like you, you sitting on a throne acting like you aren't fucking just making these people social faces up. Well, hold on, hold on, hold on. Ask him what he thinks about his viewers because you're assuming. Thank you. You're assuming in this that he thinks his ears are higher than thou. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:17:18 They're not. They're the lowest of the low. As is my stream. But I'm saying at least they're not, you know, what I don't like is when viewers are like, well, this streamers, you have to have a certain intellect to understand every reference. Bro, you're watching a streamer. Okay. That's where I'm coming from. I'm saying we're all lowest of the low.
Starting point is 00:17:38 But when the chatters who come in, they're like, you don't have to stand the high quality, high brow references. Sure, they're larping. They're larping. And your chatters are just kind of jacking each other off in Discord. Yeah, they're jacking each other off.
Starting point is 00:17:51 They're having fun. What's the deal? It's a full-on jerk question there, man. I joke the call. We jerked a. We jerk it off. It's an NSFW channel. We get in there.
Starting point is 00:18:01 We turn on the porn. First day in this week's channel excited to make some new friends and she's joining this call with 80 people in it. Come everywhere. Come everywhere. Oh, fuck.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Shit. You don't want to play Counterstrike here? That sounds like a dream. They're nasty. They're nasty. Are you running gooner tournaments in that course? Oh, big time. You know about Cooner tournaments?
Starting point is 00:18:25 Well, I remember they had a, this is so funny, they were watching Parasite, the movie in Discord. And I was like, you know what? I'm going to join. I want to see the movie. And they're all typing,
Starting point is 00:18:33 like there's a stupid little commentary. And then when there's that sex scene, complete quiet. Not a single message. You see all the dot-todas just go away. I'm like, what the fuck? Hitting the Taco Bell soundboard in the middle of it.
Starting point is 00:18:47 Like, all right. Well, look, I don't know. I, I'm constantly at odds with you because I think that...
Starting point is 00:18:55 It feels one way. So I want you to revisit the meme that you referenced earlier. Also, When NL was on your podcast, read those comments. You think those are normal comments? For us, par for the course. How dare you?
Starting point is 00:19:08 I don't know. I will say when we had you on. Of course I read that. I watched the whole episode. I scrolled down. I was like, what are people thinking? Oh my God, you're a fan, bro. You're a fan, big fan. I think he's a fan of himself.
Starting point is 00:19:21 We're going to put you down. No, no. He's on the hell of my episode. I thought he said his own episode. And I was like, that's crazy. No, but I watched the shit out of that, too. Do you? Are you kidding me?
Starting point is 00:19:29 Of course I did. I read every comment. Gooning. I was gooning. When do you comment goon on everything? Oh man, I'm just goon. What do you mean? What's comment goon?
Starting point is 00:19:38 It's obviously when something you're in, you read the comments all the time about it. Oh, no. I read the comments like when it comes out, but I'm not like, you go back? You ever go back and read the comment? No.
Starting point is 00:19:47 You ever go back, sort by newest and see, anyone else? Oh, no. My Kaisenak comment goon wall, and it's all the nice comments. I do it on room. There's one specific episode of the art I go back to
Starting point is 00:19:58 because I want to see the updates. It's the one where we interview Asa Butterfield because so many of the people that find the episode now after so long are just fans of him who clicked on this very bizarre interview
Starting point is 00:20:11 and they did it's just four guys arguing with each other like it's always sunny and he just sitting there and the comments are like why would they ask him that what are disgusting question
Starting point is 00:20:24 oh man I still go back I check that one like every six months still I hope he's so well. I bet he's great. I don't know why I hear how we had him on.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Because he played Smash Ultimate and came to Ultimate Summit. And we met him there. And then we followed, I don't know who, maybe us, me, you,
Starting point is 00:20:42 someone and we just DM'd him. It was like how they got a marketplace on. They just asked his dumb ass. Yeah. We never asked him. In fact, Nikki,
Starting point is 00:20:49 Jake, you just don't know all them. He just made a new movie. I didn't know all them at all. You were just hearing from him. Like, you don't have any information. It wasn't for me. It was just like actually making some up.
Starting point is 00:20:59 It's actually impressive how you live in a world that doesn't exist. This is the only true thing he said this episode. What are kind of spewing a lot? What are you talking about? You don't want to be doing. He finally gave me Nagy Jee's phone number to reach out to him about this event. Dude, that guy responds immediately. That guy is an instant responder.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Yeah, and I'd take a couple months because I like to craft a message. This is my favorite Ludwig message, by the way. This happens a handful of times when we, like, communication from Ludwig gets passed on to me about like an event or like a project we're doing. And then I text them, I'm like, hey, so Ludwig told you about the thing, right? It's good to hear from you.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Like, we'll get this coordinated. And then the person always responds, yeah, what is the thing? Every time without fail. Keep it vague. Keep it open-ended. That's good. I like that.
Starting point is 00:21:48 I do like that, too. Options. Because what if it changes into some sort of pageant or a different event? Right, right. We've been thinking about making it a pageant. And you're the host. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:21:56 I'm down. 26, the yard child pageant hostess. No, wait. cancel. Hell yeah, you accepted. You accepted as a binding contract.
Starting point is 00:22:03 No, fuck. Is it because the pageant? Yeah, just the pageant part. The children are fine.
Starting point is 00:22:11 All right. The pageant is, come on. A children's CSGO event. That would really swimming. That is amazing. Yeah, it's all 10 year olds
Starting point is 00:22:19 and they're fucking yelling at each other. Dude, and the commentators are mean. And they're also 10 years old. Launders, launders just chewing out.
Starting point is 00:22:28 It's 10 year old. This is fucking this 10-year adoption. The children's Counterstrike League, the CCL. We get 5B-5 kids, and all the kids are casters. Yeah, no, it's all production. And it's like the most produced event all year. Wait, have you guys seen this team, the Silver Gunners, and they're like old Counterstrike players, like in their 70s and 80s?
Starting point is 00:22:49 Oh, yeah. I find that to be so offensive. Fuck you. Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Fuck this side. This side. People are so, like, it's so infantic, like, oh my God, like, they're so good, like, they're getting such good kills. They're ass.
Starting point is 00:23:08 They're not good. They're ass. Oh, my God. They're fucking old. They look awesome. Their average age. Like, they're got like me too king. The silver snipers.
Starting point is 00:23:16 No, they're not. I feel bad. Wait, they see their faces. They're actually pretty good. The second guy looks like the Albert Einstein picture that you see it on, like Venice Beach. Yeah, that one. Okay. Can I respectfully ask?
Starting point is 00:23:25 Are they still around? Because they started in 2017. I don't think so. I don't know. They might not be right. So I feel so bad now. There was a good, there's a video of this, uh,
Starting point is 00:23:33 this old woman in China. She's in like her late 50s or 60s. And her son plays a ton of video games, right? So during COVID, he taught her how to play Counterstrike. And now she plays and streams Counterstrike in China. And she's like 20K on per me. Seriously?
Starting point is 00:23:51 Yeah, yeah. I was watching. I don't know like, dude, her aim is just better than mine. I was watching those. I'm getting completely outclass. I mean, in fighting games,
Starting point is 00:24:00 like there's a 44-year-old Zenguev player who is a genuine real threat to the best players in the world. And that's not like elderly, but it's only gonna keep happening. I saw a post from clicks. He's like on a stream. He was like, yeah, I want to really go hard
Starting point is 00:24:13 this next year because I don't have much time left. He's 21. He's 21? You know what, you're right. He's entering his prime. He's exiting his prime. I think he could be in his prime still. I think he thinks his prime is,
Starting point is 00:24:28 like about to go away. Is he on trend? I don't think he's on the trend. I think Fortnite is more likely to die than... That's what I was thinking. I was like,
Starting point is 00:24:36 I don't think Fortnite is going to be around for like five more years. Really? He's like eight, he's like 10 years. Forty is going to be around in five years. I mean,
Starting point is 00:24:43 but not as big as it was and it just slowly decry. I will say the USports side sucks. Oh, I was watching it. Oh, no, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:49 I was watching Fortnite ESports because after we did like the 1V8 against clicks. Dude, it's a hard watch. Oh, the build, right? They just, no, let it tick because it's a one tick and you can just get three med kits and you don't have to
Starting point is 00:25:04 interact that way. I mean, yeah, that already is inherently rewards not interacting. I know. And now they have a feature. I mean, it's probably not that new,
Starting point is 00:25:11 but they have a feature where if you don't do enough damage and you're below the threshold, you're out. So you have to interact. Interesting. There's a damage threshold that pops on the screen. But it's, it's, they're basically just trying to make rules around the lameness of it.
Starting point is 00:25:27 Yeah. That's how all games boiled down to just laming somebody out. Not Minecraft. Not Minecraft. Not Minecraft. You're laming out the audience. It's just, how?
Starting point is 00:25:39 By playing Minecraft? No. You play it. Oh, I'm just trying to. And that's why you're good at this. I appreciate you for that. You're satisfied with this side. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:25:51 It's a great hardship. The yes is important, but the end is where really we're cooking. Can we do an exercise? Yeah. I've been seeing this trend. top 10 games all time. Oh yeah. Oh, sure. Oh, wow. And I've seen the list. And the lists usually are like game they really like.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Game that they liked when they were 15 years old. Yeah. Game that you should have in your list. And then repeat that three times. Yeah. That's kind of every list. Are you thinking it's like the games that made me thing and they post like a grid, right? Yeah. Yeah. Did you see a Cola? He's like one of the best smash ultimate players. And one of his nine games. was the smash ultimate fighter pass two. Like the DLC. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Because they had Steve in it. That's funny. And he's a Steve player. Yeah. And Steve's a cunt. That rules. Also, it's acola. It's acola.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Yeah, man. I thought you were done with Japan. Let's just say acola. Aikola. Japan era over. Then it's Dongxi. So the exercise is what. That probably means like apple pie.
Starting point is 00:26:54 We have to make a top 10 as a collective five who have a very, I would say our pedigree in games in this five is probably higher than any room in L.A. right now. Let me put it out there. There is a deer on the roof right now. There's someone on the roof. It's just the guy on the roof.
Starting point is 00:27:11 You guys always freak out. The guys have heard him for a thousand episodes. I always hear him. Now you hear the guy on the roof. Now you care. You always hear him? The guy's on the roof all the time. I always hear him.
Starting point is 00:27:20 He's always in the roof. The guy's on the roof. He's having a little episode, I think. I'm having an episode. The guy's on the roof. He's on the roof. We put together 10 games. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Okay, I'm putting one up. Do we just get melee out of the way? Mayle. Mayle has to be. I think ultimate's better. I just said the thing is... Final smashes. Dude, I would punch you in the stomach
Starting point is 00:27:41 just to see what you would do. Because no one's done it. No one's punched me. No one's punched you. I want to watch you cry once before I've gone. You've been to fights. Tell them. Tell them.
Starting point is 00:27:49 I used to be pretty hard and tough back in the day. When did you get last beaten in the fight? When I was, uh... Back when they fought like this. Yeah. Why, I got it. Did you be so good in that time period?
Starting point is 00:28:03 A pugilist? I would be raciously excluded. Yeah, but you'd be electric. Good exclusion. No, I got into a fight in like college. Really? Over what? Yeah, you know, just friendly.
Starting point is 00:28:15 You know, we started wrestling and then we got into a fight. What's the big deal? It happened. Mario Party happens. Mario card. It got a little intense. And who won? Not me.
Starting point is 00:28:25 I've never won a fight. You got your ass? beat? I got my ass beat. It was tough and never again. I'm like, I know what I'm good at and it's not fighting. I'm not a tough guy. Whoa. Did he like rip some of the, like, that's how there was some sort of perfect lifelong damage.
Starting point is 00:28:41 And he's that. It's mirror, like, look, what are you talking about here? Like, did they rip your hair? You're not even grasping anything. No. I try to do what everyone else does when I'm more bald, so it doesn't matter. Ball on bald. He doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:28:55 I just got a black eye. I've only got a black eye twice. Once was in a fight and the other was because I dropped an iPad on my eye and bed. So it's kind of the highs and the lows. Oh my god. Yeah, it sucks. So you were gooning X videos. Not gooting. I was just holding it with two hands. How was it? I forgot that you have to hold it and I started gooting. And trying to be really fast about dropping it jerky and picking it up. You were mine gooting. I was mine gooting. Pixel gooting. Actually, you have to be perfect Top 10?
Starting point is 00:29:27 You can mind gune. You can mind you? Because you do it in your sleep? Yeah, it's mind guining. Yeah, I think so. It's no no no nocturnal guding. There's no touching. It's mind.
Starting point is 00:29:34 It's mind gudding. Stop trying to defraud me. I don't know if it's mind gooned me in my mind. But he couldn't be mind gooned on purpose. I can do it on purpose. Now you're, it's... You only don't want to ask today. All right, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Okay. I had to fall asleep. You don't know you. It works. Let's get this guy taking a nap. You guys don't hate that, I know. You bring it up too much.
Starting point is 00:29:55 I don't bring up the art. Why would you? First off, you do. You guys talk about me like a gross amount. Really? Yeah, I come up like every other episode.
Starting point is 00:30:04 He's the locale. Oh. He's the local. I'm the only reason they know each other. That's not true. I met Atriac before you. Yeah, but he gave you alcohol at a party when you were a minor.
Starting point is 00:30:15 And so do you want to bring that up? That's not. Did you want to bring that up? You can bring that up. So I guess it's time to talk about that. You were 17 at a party and he gave you. you alcohol. We shouldn't exaggerate the details. And he asked you if you like dancing? It's not.
Starting point is 00:30:28 He has to be danced. What was actually they say? Yeah. What was it? What's the exaggeration part? What got exaggerated here? You know what? That's what happened. It was just us. Hotel room. I was 17. He gave me alcohol. Yes, that's what happened. And you were a corner. Yes, Matt T was in the room. Okay. All right. That part's true. All right. Top 10 video games. How about we all think of one and then throw it out? And then the group agrees, yes, you know and it'll be majority pass fail. This is different from someone's personal lexicon. This is five guys.
Starting point is 00:30:58 This is five guys. Discussing top two. Okay. So are we agreeing that we're trying to be the objective list? We're not saying our personal favorite games. I think if you don't have yourself in your list, you're not a real man. But you guys have never played Metal Gear Solid 2, Sons of Liberty. I have. Really? I played the remaster.
Starting point is 00:31:17 No, you're probably thinking of Twin Snakes. He doesn't even know what he's talking about. Down vote. So it's like, so you're saying, if I would have said what you just said, oh my God, I'd already be dead. He would have killed me. He would have strangled me dead. Yeah. He gave you such a pass just now. Do you even feel it? No, I made fun of it. I said, you don't even know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:31:32 No, I know. But that's what I was so little. Well, that was scathing. That was not your normal. The scathing slime was a name of a fucking movie wrong and you're like, well, this is why your fucking Paris said I do that. I'm an Israeli agent. No, no, no, no. No, no. No, no. No, no. I work here. I think, I think you guys are taking me for a spin here because contextually, our job is not to I would have moved past that with all of you guys
Starting point is 00:31:56 I would have made fun of you which I did I made him I put him down and made me feel small which is important did you feel small? I got past it it. It was in a different context maybe you're grandiose about it
Starting point is 00:32:06 you burst in the door you say Kelvin Kelvin come here these weren't tassels I'm sorry I tuned out what are we talking about top 10 games she want churther she want churther
Starting point is 00:32:18 who buchelah man did you say you want Did you say you want food? What you want rice? Wobu churla. Is it is chur? I like, ch'uang ch'uang-like, can you just translate what he's saying?
Starting point is 00:32:30 He says he wants something. And I think he's saying he wants food? Megwar. Wait, do you say you want high quality nutritious food that are personalized for your recommendations with over 1,000 grocery items? Dway, Dway. L'et-Bong-I-Ru is great for someone like you.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Dway! This shit is ready to eat 15 minutes or less. Hensma. Dway. Henn how. Sherman. You both? I hope so much about Hungary.
Starting point is 00:32:54 It's so excited. If you want to teach him, he can only understand you. Tell him that there's grass-fed beef burger, rosemary potatoes, salt, pepper, chicken Caesar salad,

Starting point is 00:33:13 Tell him. Quickly. What did this? What a shirt? Fuck, I'm blowing this. It's grass fed. It's grass fed.

Starting point is 00:33:43 Faye chung bomb. This here. And a fay chong bong to all you out there. So if I say something that you guys have never play, do you get to... Yes, we get to downvote, yes. I guess everyone... That's not fair? Okay, then do you want one golden pass for everybody? So do we get... Do we put melee on the list?
Starting point is 00:33:58 Is that the free square? Of course. How about this? How about for the 10 list? Everybody gets a golden ticket. You have one game you can put on the list. Okay. Okay. And melee and Mario 64 is on the list. I think... So now we have seven games already. Just melee. Melae's the free square. Oh, I don't know if I'd put Mario 64 on the list. I would put put Mario 64 on the list. What? Four of us. We only get ten games. All of them? Mario's probably the top three. So why is it's a bad idea?
Starting point is 00:34:22 Because now we do it. What are we doing? You're going to stomp his voice out? You're not. The great Indian boxer of 1890, I think. Mario 64's a great game. I think it's one of the best games of all time. Would you put it top ten?
Starting point is 00:34:32 Would you put a top ten that we're making right now? Would you put a top ten that's the question? Of all time? Yes. Yes. Yeah. Like, and I had a lot of time to think about it.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Yeah. I think it's tough for Aiden because he actually hasn't played 10 games. Swear to God. Yeah. He has at nine in the next game. in the list. The next game is just his phone. Wait, so you agree to Mario.
Starting point is 00:34:57 You guys don't agree with Mario. I don't agree with Mario 64, I don't think. I'll give you Margin's 4 because I played one of six years old and that was awesome. But I get to say that. I also played it when I was six years old and it was awesome. But I think speed running hard carries
Starting point is 00:35:08 the longevity of that game. What a dumb thing to say. Obviously no one's going to play a single player. I think that multiplayer hard carries it. That's not the same thing. It is. It is kind of the same thing. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:35:20 It is. Because speed running, carrying it is good. It means it has a longevity because it's still good to touch. Here's my thing with, if we're picking, I would say Super Mario Galaxy. Okay. That's a great game.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Hey God, we can all... No, no. But Mario 64 when it came out, it was like one of the big first 3D games ever. Sure. And it was not just that. People haven't been able to match the movement of that game since in 1996.
Starting point is 00:35:49 You think Odyssey does match it? Odyssey is close. I'm not gonna lie. Odyssey is close. But Galaxy isn't and it's crazy you said it because it has the worst movement. I think Galaxy is just a fun game.
Starting point is 00:35:58 Galaxy is a great game. No, I'm with you. But Mars 64 is still like... Galaxy is a great game. We have a seven year old in the room with us. Galaxy, a better... I would say a better video game.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Let me... What? You know what? He might be sounding crazy. I actually agree. But I agree that Mario 64 is more of like an important game. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Okay. How much time? Once the last time you played Galaxy. Once's the last time? Oh my god Was there a single or double to change? When we lived in the old house And you played it a good amount
Starting point is 00:36:27 Yeah like a couple days Because I played it a few years ago And then I've been watching Feinberg Played like the past couple weeks It's dude It's good It's good It's a good game
Starting point is 00:36:37 It's a really It's a really creative platformer The like a 3D aspect is cool Like it has been It's like the only Mario game Ever with like an even slightly emotional story It has the best music.
Starting point is 00:36:52 It's not top 3 3D Mario. What's the top 3D Mario? Mario 64, Mario Odyssey, Mario Sunshine. You're actually... Sunshine. You're actually serious. Sunshine is... It's a big.
Starting point is 00:37:06 Looks like I'm hovering across the apparel. Sunshine is better movement than all... No, it doesn't. Sunshine is... I shouldn't say it. I think the level design in the galaxy is more fun. Sunshine might have the best vibe. Yeah. Of any Mario game.
Starting point is 00:37:23 It's a movement. No, it doesn't. Hey, Sunshine is the best one for like wallpapers on your computer. That's galaxy. That is literally galaxy. Or like rap monster shirt. You are the end of Arkansas. That is literally a star.
Starting point is 00:37:36 You dude, it's not a star. It's not a shirt. It's a shrapical, man. Dude, Mario and the tropical shirt is literally all. Galaxy exists because the vibe you created, the game itself sucks. Unfinite. Like some love it's so fast.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Real shit. It's just an unfinished game. Black Hat, red broom. She's in another castle. Oh! You care about it. He's like a video game. I'm playing all these games.
Starting point is 00:38:03 The only one I have not played He's gonna pull up sales numbers. I actually play Odyssey the least. So I was the least place to say about it. Odyssey's movement was more fun than Sunshine's movement. Agreed. It's not even comparable. It was easier.
Starting point is 00:38:16 It was more intuitive. Dude, the problem with Sunshine is the hover nozzle slows slows down all of your momentum because they made it because they didn't know how to make a 3D game with depth perception So they would so you go quick quick and then you'd have to hover and stop all momentum It's so best levels were the floodless levels and that's because their main gimmick no I disagree because I actually think the dive Length is gross in that game It's so bad it's so bad that's the worst part I mean the movement is just it's not as good I think the flood movement's pretty fun But anyway it's a much more vertical game it's much more vertical game it's much more vertical
Starting point is 00:38:49 I'd be perfectly happy putting Mario 64 on the list. I just think Galaxy would be my pick of the Mario list. It's so annoying listening to you because you haven't played a fucking game. I've played a whole. I'm playing. And you probably got through level two because you're shades. Did you complete Galaxy?
Starting point is 00:39:03 Did you complete Galaxy? Yes. I didn't 100% it with like Luigi. Did you see Rosalina Muff at the end? Yeah. No, he reached King Bob Am and Mario 64 and quit because he didn't know how to fucking throw him three times. This is not true! He got to the B-I-I-Ly Island
Starting point is 00:39:18 Mario Galaxy and then he jerked off to the Queen B and then quit. You never hit Diamond and Voward after three years. Oh my. He's, oh, we've used a nuke. This is a tactical nuclear weapon. What do we say? It might be the most. A guy who meets his gaming goals?
Starting point is 00:39:33 Guy who mostly does it. Tactical nuke inbound. It might be the most yard section ever. It's like, what's rank the top 10 games? Mario Mario Mario, Mario, Mario, you've never achieved anything. And he's a hurt against. So anyways, dude's really. Meleys on the list.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Mele and Mario. I'm down for Mario 64. I think it's an amazing game. I think it's like a gimmie. I played it was one of my favorite games. I've made a personal top ten list before and it was in that top ten list. So we have melee and Mario.
Starting point is 00:40:02 Okay. Can I throw out a competitor? Who won? To me, it's a freebie for the list. Your Eldon Ring. Yeah. I'll let you guys have that. I say Dark Souls 3 over Eldonring.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Three? You patrician you. I would still say one. You would say one? You would say one? you said three. I think three. I think the bosses in three are the best and the story moves on and I really like three. I can buy what you're selling. I can buy. I like this guy. Well, I really want him over this episode. Because it's just such an elevate take past just jerk off Lel Eldon ring. I mean, I'm down for Dark Souls 3. I'm down. I'm down. Dark Souls 3 is what you put on your list if you want people to respect your list more. It's true. Eldon Ring is the correct take. Yeah, I actually think Dark Souls 3 is like that. I don't think Eldon Ring is a correct take. Why would you say that? It's just a better game. It's just a better. It's just a better. It's just a better. It's just a better. It's just a better. It's just a better. It's just a better. It's a good take. I think. I'm. They put more time into it. Wait, how was it not correct?
Starting point is 00:40:50 He used to talk about this game. Like, it should be in the Louvre. It should be in the Louvre. But there is a, there is a different spice, a different, a different, a different chili oil. Yes. To Dark Souls 3 and Dark Souls 1 specifically. Maybe two, if you're kind of a freak. If you rub the chili oil on your pubis.
Starting point is 00:41:06 You know what I'm saying, right? You know what I'm saying? A little bit. I was a bit of the bus. So are we funny? My pubis is all red from the chili oil. I think if you were making this list for yourself, you put Eldon Ring, and if you're making this list, acknowledging that people are going to see, you put Dark Souls 3. And you're such a fucking...
Starting point is 00:41:25 You're such a piece of shit for saying that. Like, you're just... So what do you guys want? I'll let you pick. If you care about other... If you, like, give a shit about yourself, it'd be Eldon Ring. If you care about what others see of you, it's Dark... No.
Starting point is 00:41:39 I just think Dark Souls 3 is a better game than Eldon. Well, let's quickly deconstruct the idea here. Because you are saying you put Dark Souls 3 on to signal to other people that you're kind of a knower. Yes. But you are kind of the opposite. You put Eldon Ring on to signal to other people that I acquiesce. It's the one. Yes.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Which is the same version of signaling. You're basically saying, like, you're doing the same thing, just inverted. I'm here going LeBron James the best. And you're like, actually it's Kevin Durant because he's the best score. And it's like, okay, yeah, I get you know ball. But like, bro. But like, again, what you're doing is just the act of doing this itself is signaling, right?
Starting point is 00:42:08 So we might as well just signal that the things that we love instead of the things that, like, everybody, it's got to be Eldon Ring. It's got to be LeBron. Sure. And like, like, let's be our sound. I'm down. Let's go Dark Souls 3. Dark Souls 3.
Starting point is 00:42:21 But these guys have never played it. Now that we have Dark Souls 3 on the list, Eldon Ring should probably be on two. Vito, because I don't think you can have two from soft ones. You're fun with Dark Souls Street. No, I don't think you should do. It's different. Okay, so we have three games.
Starting point is 00:42:34 I can buy the argument. We have three. We can't put May and March 64. Dark Souls 3. We're out three on the list so far. Yeah, this is good. This is good. This is fine.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Volunteer game. Volunteer game. Resident Evil 4 Oh Interesting I don't hate it An interesting thought Explain it
Starting point is 00:42:50 How did you know your thought I think It's one of the eight games I've played And I figured I need something That makes me kind of cool I think I think I haven't played a lot of games
Starting point is 00:43:00 To his credit But it is one of the only games That I've played All the way through That I was like Totally jaw drop Wowed by the end Like I loved every moment
Starting point is 00:43:10 Of the intensity of that experience How old were you when you played it? I was 21 1? 20? Okay. So you played it late in its cycle. You played it back with far beyond when the Nintendo Switch was out. And you are,
Starting point is 00:43:23 you played the gate, you went back in a GameCube and you played Resident Evil 4 in college. Played it on a, well played it the GameCube version on a, on a Wii. Yeah, that's where I played it too. Yeah. And I just, it's,
Starting point is 00:43:35 I feel like I haven't, not a lot of video games have made me feel like, wow, like, like, I watched like a really intense, amazing movie at the end of it. And I feel like it's, on the top end of the spider at the end you shot him with a rocket and you felt something tell me that's what you're saying
Starting point is 00:43:50 can you look up end of Resident Evil 4 I'm not fucking around I'm sorry I spoiled but there's a spider and then you shoot the rocket I forgot about that it's been a lot cooler ending of the movie enemy if you know what we didn't know when we
Starting point is 00:44:04 played 3 is like you get you find an RPG in that game yeah and we just used it like immediately not knowing that it's the one tool you have in the game to like one shot any bomb and we were we just shot it thinking like oh that'll do a lot of damage it topples the next boss we're like wow that was easy and then the rest of the game
Starting point is 00:44:22 you regret not having it yeah it's like a masterball in Pokemon yeah yeah so that's I accept that game that's a good game to zipper we just hear gnashing gnashing teeth outside metal zippers angry yeah it's the risen evil fans yeah oh so like when you said you felt something it's like what emotions were you feeling if you remember this is a remake specifically so there's more fidelity here. Have you played the remake, Aidan? No, not yet. You should play Resident Evil 9. I'm going to play Resident Evil 2 first.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Yeah, that's a good call. The remake of 2. What, what Resident Evil is your favorite? You've played them all, right? Yeah. Oh, I haven't played one and two. I mean, I've played two. Fake ass. But I played the remake of three. I didn't play. So what's your favorite? My favorite, honestly, it might be two. The two remake. The remake? Well, again, I think the remake is fine in this context because the original PlayStation Resident Evil's a really hard play. Yeah, it's so old. They're not fun to play.
Starting point is 00:45:24 But I think the most recent one is my second favorite Resident Evil. They ain't it putting that to screen. There's the RPG. Are you crying? Teer sheds. The spider goes down. But he's also playing on the Wii, so you have to actually aim the RPG? It makes it sad.
Starting point is 00:45:38 It's an RPG entering a spider-looking creature. Oh, no. And there's a... timer with a capsule on it. Leon Kennedy picks it up. Uh-oh, Ada Wong, betrayal. A Chinese woman points a gun to... This is going to be you in a few months. That's Michael.
Starting point is 00:45:56 The betrayal. Great game. It was a great game. Wait, you guys don't think... Is four the only one you've played? No. I've played seven biohazard, and I have played... Oh, wow. Village?
Starting point is 00:46:11 No, I think I've only played seven. and four. I catch up on all this bullshit. I never played a resolution. I can't, I can't in good conscience put this on the list boys. Why? I've never played it. Can you explain why? Oh, but, well, I mean, you guys haven't played Dark Souls 3. Oh, so I have to give it my golden ticket? We majority did it? We majority
Starting point is 00:46:27 did it in. Yeah, but I can use my golden ticket. I just can't, I mean, I'm not going to vote. You should use your golden ticket. He can golden ticket. Yeah, if you want to spend it on that. If you want to spend your golden ticket, you can spend it on Resident Evil 4. I guess you've never played any of the game. Might as well do it. Or you can golden ticket Galaxy he would have an aneurysm. No, because we already have a Mario game on the list.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Yes. W. It feels a very similar category. W. W. W. Good call. Guy thinking I don't like that game. Guy thinking that's not one of the most beloved games of my childhood as well. Who listens to the timeless music? No, I'm Golden Ticketing.
Starting point is 00:47:03 This is my one. I have to lock this in. I like it. Brave. Out of the tens of games I've played. Brave. This is in the top of two. You played good games.
Starting point is 00:47:12 This is in the top two. Don't discount your gaming experience. If you played 10 good games, that counts as like people who play 50 shit games, you know? This shifts to the, of my shitty pile that I've formed over the course of my life, perhaps. This sits at the top. If he has, if he has like, I don't know what the number is, probably like 30,000 hours playing games. It's like 25,000. Our Mario cart, we melee in CS2.
Starting point is 00:47:38 That's fine. And Valerine. I mean, those are the best games. That's 25,000. And then it's 4,999 hours trying to be Breath of the Wild. Oh my God. And he's still working on it.
Starting point is 00:47:49 You still working? Breath of the Wild? One of my favorite games. How many Divine Beasts are we in? Three? I'm at the fourth. Oh my. He's at the fourth.
Starting point is 00:47:57 I'm at the fourth. Isn't that something? When did you start playing? In 2018? What's taking so long? He started playing before we had the podcast. Wait, why did he? He was a big streamer.
Starting point is 00:48:07 Maybe right when he started. He started playing when he worked at a place called smash. We were still in Afghanistan. Yeah, we were. I think the very short version is I only, like, I play that game purely to relax. And if I, when I'm playing video games, most of the time, I would rather be playing one of the games I'm like working to be good at. So that's my, that's the big thing I have a single player games. So you don't like Brett the Wild as much as any other game that.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Yeah, but I really, really like it when I'm playing it in the way, like this would be one of my suggestions for the list. I love playing that game. No, no way. I mean, here's the thing. Listen, I think there was something in what you said where it's like if he would, he says Resident Evil 4,
Starting point is 00:48:48 which is kind of universally agreed to be a pretty good game. If he was saying like, no, dude, Lego Indiana Jones, then it's like worthy of horrible, horrible ridicule. But he's saying good games.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Wait, I played Lego Indiana Jones. That game sucks. Well, and that's what I'm trying to say is that from your small sample size, your barometer seems to work, which is important. Also, he's dodging a lot of the allegations right now.
Starting point is 00:49:09 we're crucifying you for never having played single player games. He's played even less. Yeah. But him? I don't know that's true. I think Nick's actually had more of a resurgence lately. The problem is Nick's closing the gap because he's entered a single player arc. Single player arc.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Wait, what single player games? What would you add to the list? The one I was thinking of what, well, everyone was going to make fun of me. When I was thinking of was Hela 3. I wouldn't make fun of you for that? That's a dignified pick. I would go fuck yourself. HAL II is way better than HALT.
Starting point is 00:49:36 I understand. I understand the argument. I thought about that when I said. when I said it, but I think the campaign is what it wins the argument. Are you not putting a cod on this list? I am, but I'm not going to say it first. After what he said, I saw all this. I say cod first.
Starting point is 00:49:49 But the thing for, okay, you'd put, hmm. Wait, Zipper, could you try to build, build list? Because right now, melee? Okay, perfect, perfect. I put, well, okay, if I, look, you make a little wider. So we have six slots left. Look, if I'm making my list, I'm putting call duty four on it.
Starting point is 00:50:06 I don't care what anyone says. That's your goal. Take it. Sure. But if I'm making the list that everyone looks at, I'm putting Mono for 2 on. Yeah, but if I'm making my list, like maybe Indian,
Starting point is 00:50:14 maybe later in the division between what you think and what people look at. Like, be true to yourself. Yeah, fuck the people. But there's a difference between... Who gives a shit? Let me explain. Let me explain.
Starting point is 00:50:22 It's like a short, like, levy or something. Anyway, Call 3 4, I think, if I could only play a Desert Island one forever, I'm picking that game. But I think Monor for 2, it's built off the same engine, but there's more.
Starting point is 00:50:36 If I can pull you, I would like for you to pick Monor for a in the spot. Why is that? Because I've played them both and monorfer 2 means more to me. What I don't like about monorfer 2 is that there's just a gentleman's agreement of how we should all play it. And if you don't abide by it, you can ruin it. Cod 4 is not like that. Cod 4 is just what it is and it's every game's beautiful. Could I put a little treat out there? I think the campaign in Cod 4 is better. No, model warfare 2, you get to go through a flaming White House.
Starting point is 00:51:08 Yeah, you also get to... That's crazy. Yeah. No Russian. No Russian. Did you guys... I didn't enjoy no Russian. What?
Starting point is 00:51:16 I just kept replaying the game. I modded so there's infinite people in the airport. Dude, no Russian, the White House, the final scene with the throwing knife. I don't know. It's pretty fucking good. Codd 4 is also really good. But it's just more limited in what it was doing. It's, look, it's at the end of the day, it's military propaganda.
Starting point is 00:51:36 But when I got to shoot at people, from a Burger King. Yeah. I was like, this is pretty interesting. Dude, Soren, USA at Disney's also military propaganda.
Starting point is 00:51:43 What is? Soren, USA? Thorin over California. Touring over California. Yeah. They fucking nerfed that ride. We went on it kind of recently and it's way less cool
Starting point is 00:51:52 than when I was a kid. What pissing me off, bro? You used to smell it when you were a kid. No, you can smell it now. You can smell it. You can smell shit in there. No, you got,
Starting point is 00:51:58 you got, olfactory issues. Alex went. Alex Huggins went and he said he could smell it, remember? Yeah, but it smells like a, like a taxi cab in New York. Like I remember it smelling like oranges.
Starting point is 00:52:06 It smells like orange scent. Oh, it's like, you know what I mean? It's like one of those like country. I think it's because you're losing some child wonder. Like when I was there, I smell like like like I'm in like, you know, like an orange bush. You did it. I was sitting right next to you. And you turned to me like, wha.
Starting point is 00:52:21 That smells like, pretty old. I mean like an orange bush. I take off my shoes when I ride it. Disgusting. He's like twinkling his toes too. I mean, there's nothing wrong with taking your shoes off when you start to air travel. And I put them right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:33 No, no, no, no, no. You do that? Can we take a detour from this list for a second? Real quick, when he air travels, and am I the asshole? The guy next to you takes off his shoes. He also is like, hey, could I, because we pass you really quick? You ask the guy? Psychotic. And then he puts them in the bin above.
Starting point is 00:52:49 The overhead bin, the overhead bin, closes it. And then I go and sit back down. You're a terrorist. How? My feet is not bad, my feet is not bad. Your overhead bin Laden. Because let me tell you, the fact that you do that and that overhead had been space is limited, and you put your fucking smelly ass shoes
Starting point is 00:53:05 next to people's belongings funeral ashes like people are traveling and you put your fucking what your new balances in there give me a fucking braid do you want to smell my new balances why you dad's ashes smell bad mom
Starting point is 00:53:18 I have the only one who has actually transported human ashes on a plane have you done this? No boss what whose my father you didn't do that your mom did it what do you mean I'm there
Starting point is 00:53:31 I'm not you're not You didn't put it through the little box And then someone at TIS. What is this a struggle Olympics? Like we're talking about shoes. And you guys are like, no, I had a depressing airplay story. What the fuck are you talking about? This is the yard.
Starting point is 00:53:43 Yeah, but Clown's more repressed. Take your sense of bass back to face fucking pooky. Either way. You're putting your shoes in the... I put my shoes in the overhead bin and then I sit back down and then I enjoy the duration of the flight.
Starting point is 00:53:58 My feet do not smell bad because I do not smell bad as a man. And then I get them and I retrieve I think you can take your shoes off in a flight, but you have to be, like, shy about it. Like, you can, like, poke out your heel. You want, you have some guilt? Yes, there should be some resentment. You shouldn't be, like, confident about putting it in the overhead.
Starting point is 00:54:12 I'm shoe off, put my feet on my shoes, and then I put my jacket over my feet. Wait, seat on your shoes. Socks are chill, right? Sox have to be on. How? What's the huge difference of, I take my shoes off and then I put my feet on my shoes? Like, what is the difference? What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:54:26 It would be like, it'd be like pulling your penis out, like, five feet away from the urinal. And then walking up to the urinal. It's actually real funny He's like, you're like, You're like, leaving your pants At the front door of the bathroom Ultimately,
Starting point is 00:54:40 ultimately, we're doing the same thing But the way you do it He's right, actually, Yeah, I think you might have Yeah, right next to a guy.
Starting point is 00:54:49 All right, well, either way, okay, I guess I'm Osama Bin Laden, which is extremely clever in points for that. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:54:58 back to the main episode. Good look, I'm struggling in my head Because like how many shooters are we going to put on this list? Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Because like in my head, it should be, there should be a counterstrike. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:55:10 There should be, I think, I'd like there to be a call of duty. And I think you have to put a halo. What if we do this? And call me Carson for it. Call me Carson. What if we have a separate cutout? This is an only single player game's list.
Starting point is 00:55:26 No, pussy, pussy. No, we have to be brave. A little coward. We're, we're. Okay. Putting apples and oranges on. I've been voted down in the Senate. Can I do, can we deviate quickly?
Starting point is 00:55:37 Yeah. Let's just throw Bellatro in here. Oh, God. No. No, dude. I love Bellatro. I don't think it goes in. Over Slicebara 1?
Starting point is 00:55:44 I also don't think Slicebiter 1 goes in. I'm sorry, Tetris. Like, what are we doing? Ew. My God. Miss Pac-Man. Tetris. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:55:52 Tetris? Tetris is a gas and impact. People like that game. People like that game. Tapher's fun. Tepper is fun. The machine only. Tapher is fun.
Starting point is 00:56:01 You guys wouldn't put Baloch in here? I've, again, I love. Have you gotten Completionist? No, I've played on the airplane. I'm not a big Belacher. I'm the big ball. I'm the base Belacher head on the pod. And you wouldn't put in your top ten? And the heads above me are much powerful, more powerful.
Starting point is 00:56:16 I don't think it goes in the top ten. In my own top ten? I don't think so. I love the game, but it's not a top ten game. That's shocking me. Which is not the Pokemon is going on the list? None of them. No, Pokemon?
Starting point is 00:56:27 No, Fire Red. No, Fire Red's not the best Pokemon. It's not even top three. Yeah, but what about the... The top of the top of the ones are what, like black and white people like? Are... Hard gold sole silver? Yeah, maybe heart gold sole silver.
Starting point is 00:56:39 Platinum would be the number one. I think Pokemon is a bad RPG in terms of RPG complexity. I think Pokemon, like, at its best is when you're adding a bunch of extra rules like Nuzzlocking and then modding it to add like rare candies
Starting point is 00:56:55 for quality of life. You disagree. I disagree. Why don't you explain what you think? Because let me tell you why. Because it's like such a third. 30 year old thing to say. It's like you have to add all these constraints and rules when Pokemon as a game isn't meant to be this uber competitive complex RPG. Is this not the 60 Mario 64 argument? It's supposed to be an RPG. We're imposing a system of playing it on it to make it
Starting point is 00:57:17 fun. It's not modded. Speed running I think is a different concept. You're playing the base game as fast as you can. This is modifying the rules of the game itself. Yeah like this is more like changing the fundamentals of Pokemon to make it fun. Which is different. You can like The game is great if I change the code of the game. Change the code of the game, make it say PSL. Make everything kind of blue. That'd be crazy. I'd love if it was blue.
Starting point is 00:57:41 Can we do this with fire red? Wait a second. Yeah, I'm not putting a Pokemon on here. I think that's a respectful nods put it. But I think there's an argument to put it. Wait, if it was impactful. I feel like I have an easy one. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:53 I feel like I have an easy little guy. Minecraft. Oh. Yeah, I love Minecraft. I put my dog up there? Yeah. Yeah. And while we're at it, we sports.
Starting point is 00:58:03 No. The port barrel of shit. No, no, no, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. The Wii Sports Resort. No. All right. I've got my controversial one. Okay.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Mario Party 4. No. No. I mean, party three. I think three is way worse than four. Is any Mario Party deserving of beating? No. No.
Starting point is 00:58:26 No. No. What do you mean? No. Bitch? It's not. Stupid bitch? I said no.
Starting point is 00:58:30 got a problem? Yes. It's not. I, it's not. You know, no, no, no, black guy, I got an iPad my car, bitch. Mario Party's fucking amazing. Mario Party is fucking amazing. I think I've played every Mario Party through eight to completion. No, you haven't played. You know, you've touched the game, you've, like, watched the colors go.
Starting point is 00:58:45 You've doubt, yeah. You've not played. You've seen dice roll. When you're watching people play craps, you've not played craps. You've not played. Until you've lost 50,000 at that fucking table. You know what I put smash it all to me on the list. Yeah, let's go.
Starting point is 00:58:56 Fuck it. Uh, I think Mario Party does rip, but I'm, I don't. I don't like, I don't like three Nintendo. It's like the ten greatest games of all time. You don't like what? Sorry? Three Nintendo games. Like, I don't like three fucking Mario games.
Starting point is 00:59:07 Why? Because it's obviously Mario tennis on the N-Samee4. Oh, God. This is the first game, Waluigi was it? Fuck what Waluigi. Okay, okay, okay. It's funny. Real it back.
Starting point is 00:59:19 Fuck Waluigi. Fuck Mario Party. You literally is my whole identity. You took my whole identity. You fucking big. I love Stone Town. Hey, Luigi. And I live in Tel Avivian.
Starting point is 00:59:30 You're like a tax rabbit sent to fucking rage baby. Slum look me in the eye. Final Fantasy 10. 10? See, Final Fantasy are interesting because they end up being a roar shack for your own personal taste, your own personal journey of your life.
Starting point is 00:59:46 Obviously, you like 10. You played it as a kid. Love 10. It matters a lot to you. My 10 is 9. 9 is my 10. I like 7. He's 7.
Starting point is 00:59:54 I like 7 a lot too. Seven is probably my favorite, but 9 means more to me. It's weird. So it's, it's, it's, tough. I think 10 is an acceptable answer, but it's always going to be divisive. It's always I'm realizing that Final Fantasy is tainted for me because in second grade there was a kid in the class named River who wouldn't stop talking about Final Fantasy and pretend. You know, I was a normal
Starting point is 01:00:22 public school and he just in class at recess like to everybody he would talk about Final Fantasy as if it was all real around us in real life. And all of the kids in class thought he was weird. This guy sounds awesome. Including you? Including me. He bullied him. And I didn't bully him. But you judged him. I was like, what else can you see in here? River, Riverr, stop talking about fucking Final Fantasy. Do you know which Final Fantasy? Did he say he had a big sword? No. No. The Final Fantasy was tainted because the kid was passionate about it. Yeah, because River, who's probably a really nice guy and just loved Final Fantasy, he made me feel embarrassed in second grade and then I carried
Starting point is 01:00:58 that feeling with me. Died in a car accident 10 years later. He's just a sad. He was handsome too. Zipper pull of Lulu from Final Fantasy 10. Maybe. Swix, take your penis up. Roger.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Jumbo. Jumbo. Yeah. Motherfucker, man. So it's like... Dude, when she does the lean forward after winning a battle. So, you know, I'm willing.
Starting point is 01:01:24 I think 10 is... The problem is I would just put a different Final Fantasy So what am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do? Is nine your desert island? Convinced me as well Is your favorite? Like would you,
Starting point is 01:01:36 if you can only play one forever? Uh, I mean, I know this doesn't answer the question Or it betrays the question, but I don't want to play the same game Over and over. I don't want to do that.
Starting point is 01:01:47 And it's a bad game. I would probably play a roguelike that is infinitely different for a desert island. But yeah, but we're trying to pick one of the series He just put on the list.
Starting point is 01:01:56 I would just, look at sand instead. I kill myself. Do you understand? I guess. I guess. You understand. You're saying Final Fantasy to you is not replayable. No, I'm just saying if a desert island is like, you only play it a couple times and you get... Why don't we just put Final Fantasy on the list?
Starting point is 01:02:15 Just any Final Fantasy. It's insane. Because like we're not going to convince each other. Can we not be men? We're not going to convince each other seven, nine, ten. That's the most cowardly thing we can do. Is put the whole series? He's just put Super Smash Bros.
Starting point is 01:02:27 And Supermorrow and Dark Souls. Any Souls like you. Every Resident Evil. Show a little conviction. I'll tell you guys I'll watch that right now. Is that what you want? Someone throw something out that we all agree. Have you only played seven?
Starting point is 01:02:38 I've played seven and online. 14? Well, there's two online but probably four. The 14, 14. The one with Lips to Lillimica. When you finished seven, what age did you finish it at? Well, you're an adult or you're a youngster? I was in my early 20s.
Starting point is 01:02:53 And then I played the remake. Here's the deal. We're the only coalition that can vote here. Sure, these are the Final Fantasy list. Hey, Grand Theft Auto 4. We've both played 10. Why not? What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:03:05 I'm contributing to the list. It was one of the best Final Fantasy games. Gentlemen, I have a problem. What is your problem? I woke up like this. What? I guess I did too. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:03:16 It's happening to us. What's happening? I don't know what's happening. It's infectious? Yes. I think, oh. Don't speak. Something will happen to you.
Starting point is 01:03:22 Blimey. I think I know what happens. Oh, Joe, wait. Let me check my. finances. It's all in pounds! No! Guys, uh, I know what happened. You guys have not cancelled your subscription to Brit Box.
Starting point is 01:03:34 No! I do is pay for BitProx, but I can't be why I'm sound like this. I miss the Queen. It changes your whole box to be British. Okay? I don't have a box. How would I... How would I even...
Starting point is 01:03:46 No, I have the subscription. Well, guys, uh, I figured this out. That's why I sound like a cool American by checking Rocket Money. I want to sound like you. Well, you can guys, with Rocket Money. a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions, monitors are spending, and helps lower your bills. So you can use money for Rockets. Classic American. Oh my kids, of course that's what you're spending it on. Do you have any beans?
Starting point is 01:04:07 Your country's in shambles currently. We have the bays. No, we're not shambles, you have any beans? I'm hungry out. I'm so hungry. I'm not having breakfast. It's in ages. Well, if you guys canceled your Britpawk subscription, you could maybe get a subscription for beans.
Starting point is 01:04:20 A beans is a question. That sounds proper nice, doesn't it? That sounds proper nice. Can you get it through the post? Oh no. Let me cancel it. You can use the dashboard to see a clear view of your expenses across all your accounts. God, I'm back.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Jesus Christ. You canceled it. Did it work? Oh, it worked. I worked. I used the description to Britbox and I'll never fucking use it again ever. Cancel it. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:04:40 I feel so much better. Welcome back. Oh my God, I need Aspartame now. My life was fixed by an app and I would like aspartame. There is something I wanted to actually subscribe to. What a man. Oh. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:04:53 Let's get out of this one. Let Rock and Money help you reach your financial financial. answer goes faster. Join rocketmoney.com slash the yard. That's rocketmoney.com slash the yard. Get off roster money. Now, quickly. Rocket money.com slash the yard.
Starting point is 01:05:06 He wants to solve this final fantasy conundered first. Here's the thing. I don't want to go to war and die for Final Fantasy 10. But I'd go to war and die for Final Fantasy 9. Do you understand?
Starting point is 01:05:14 Okay, use your golden ticket. But I don't want to. I don't care enough. Borsi. My golden ticket is a different game. My golden ticket is not a final fantasy. It's Metal Gear Solid 2, sons of Liberty. I play the remake. You didn't play it. All right. Metal Gear Solid
Starting point is 01:05:31 two Sons of Liberty remake. Guys we need five more games. I will work out. We still have three golden tickets. Do we not want to put Breath of Wild? Okay, can you put Metal Gear Solid? Metal Gear Solid? No. Metal Gear Solid 2. Sons of Liberty. You don't like it? No. I mean, it was fine. It just wasn't as good as, uh, I just don't like the format. I love Breath of the Wild. I thought it was great game. Can we agree? The best sell the game ever. I agree. Can we agree that Okkraine at a time should not be on this list. No, I think, I think Breath of Wild should be on the list. Ocarina should be on the list over Brett the Wild.
Starting point is 01:06:01 It's tough. Okarina is basically like nostalgia gooning. Because... That's a game that needs fucking speed mods. It's talking about Pokemon. What? My goodness. Ocarina is not nostalgic gooting or needs speed mods. It's 100% nostalgia good. It's so good. It's genuinely good. I liked Okorea.
Starting point is 01:06:17 I don't think it's genuinely good. I didn't play it as a child. I think it's a crude, childish video game, but that has a ton of nostalgia. For me, specifically, I played it when I was eight years old. Okay, fine, Metal Gear Solid 2 is not a remake. Is that what we want to hear? Like, Jesus, let's just get over this. There's clearly fucking friction here, slime. It is not a remake. Whatever, whatever. The first one, which is remake on the
Starting point is 01:06:35 GameCube, is called the Twin Snakes, which is also two. Which is, you'd say, Beth Wilde over Ocarina? Yeah. Yeah, I would. I would also. Yes. Really? Yes. I hate this guy more than anyone in this room. But I think Legend of Zelda, Breath of Wilde is the best Zelda. Did you guys like Tears of the Kingdom? I liked it. I liked it. I liked it, but I wouldn't I wouldn't put it on top of the same type of game. It's way worse in Breath of Wild.
Starting point is 01:06:59 It's way worse. It's way worse. It's a lesser game. Okay, here's what I'm going to say. If you put Breath of Wild and re-skinned it with some like anime shit, you guys wouldn't play it. You guys would think it's shit? Because, but if you do that with Ocreen of Time. You don't think I would play it if it was anime girls?
Starting point is 01:07:13 Like, okay, I don't know about you. I played in VR. Okay, disgusting. I'll play with my cat. Fucking eight inches from my face. Okay. I'm dropping a nuke. Squeaks is currently playing
Starting point is 01:07:25 I want to be a fantasy girl who can turn back time It's called Fantasy Life A girl who turned back time Are you playing it on stream? He's plays it on his own time And he's projecting and he's yelling at us For liking Breath of Wild
Starting point is 01:07:38 Even though that's his favorite game right now It's a great game Okay, what do you like so much about it It's like a hybrid of like Animal Crossing And an RPG This one Fantasy Life I The Girl Who Steels Time
Starting point is 01:07:51 It's genuinely a great game What in the fuck? Dude, it's good. It looks like an AI Instagram ad. Yes. Like, this is what I'm talking about. But if it was like Zelda, you guys be like, oh my God. It'd be so good.
Starting point is 01:08:03 It's crazy. You guys don't give games like this a chance. I think you are bringing up an important point is that IP has monopolized our minds. And it's harder for things that aren't the old things that made us feel cool with your kids to break through. I'll say, though, I don't think this is it. You don't think this is a good game? I don't think this is it. I don't think this is it.
Starting point is 01:08:22 Don't read the YouTube comments for this fucking episode slides. Because I'm telling you, me and my other fantasy girls in the fucking chat, we're coming for your ass, dude. And they can sound like, we're coming for your ass. It's genuinely like, what are the reviews? It's like a 10 out of 10 game. I think there is maybe a version of this game that is different that would make me like it more. I'm a 35-year-old bald man who's not a pedophile.
Starting point is 01:08:46 And I think there is a way. 9 out of 10, 8 or 9. It's genuinely a good game. Give it a shot. It's a good steam deck game. Oh, it was made in Osaka. Osaka is. Briot.
Starting point is 01:08:55 Is Breath of the Wild going on the list or not? I mean, you guys are, those are just put out the way of the majority. Are you putting it on the list? There's three people. That's a good point. I've got a controversial and cocked when we're done with this. I'll put it on the list. I'm down.
Starting point is 01:09:11 I want to hold on to my vote. Okay, that's fine. We can come back to it. I want to hear what he has to say. What are we going to do with League of Legends? Oh my. I'm going to kill myself if that's on the list. I don't think it goes on the list.
Starting point is 01:09:22 And I've played it a lot. I'm not interested in putting it. league on there. No mobas will be hitting the list. Dota could hit the list. There is no Mova that is a top 10 game of all time. Warcraft. You know what? I would put World of Warcraft on this list. I would put world of Warcraft. Yeah, classic. I would put it. I'd let that happen. I think it's I if you were there you were there and if you weren't you can still go back it's they fucking craft three. I put Warcraft three. It is a bad game. It is a bad RTS to play. When's the last time you played it? Tell me this shit. This is what I was
Starting point is 01:09:53 really young. I played it two years ago and it doesn't hold up. It feels like shit to play. I played it last year and it doesn't feel like shit. Feels fine. I don't know. You're wrong. You're wrong. No, it's good. It's a fine game, but it's like as RTSs go, it is, it is not a great one. In my opinion, I would argue World Warcraft Classic is, oh, it's just, can I counter your argument? I hate to get to the weeds of RTSs. But some of the old clunkiness is what made RTSs is mechanically interesting. Bruder is an old clunky game and it rules. Yes. There is a difference between Bruder War and Warcraft 3 and the differences are staggering.
Starting point is 01:10:26 That's why one is still an e-sport in fucking career right now and one had got forgotten and turned into Dota instead. Well, you actually... This is the Dumb Town argument all over. That's a great argument. That's a great... I watched you raise off your chair. I'm a diaper filling
Starting point is 01:10:40 with green excrement. Nick, figure out your golden ticket because it's going to change the shooter that we vote in. Wow, figure out my golden ticket. But you guys disagree with my golden ticket. But you guys disagree with my... Monofer 2. Or you said you put it on. I put it on. I wouldn't vote it on no. Oh. Monoferdo doesn't mean as much to me as it means to you. But if it went on this list, I wouldn't vote it or otherwise. If I voted in, then you're throwing in like four or like, then it becomes, then we got shooter slop. There's two call of dudes on the list. And that's not happening. So I'm not, I can't vote it in with you around. This is politics. This is kind of crazy. This is, he tried to sneak in Lego Indiana Jones in a pork barrel bill. Oh. He said, let's let's no tax everyone. Everyone. Everyone's.
Starting point is 01:11:22 He's no taxes. And on the bottom says, No taxes. And it's like in fine. In New York Jones's top 10 all time. Man. So who has golden ticketed so far? Me for Metal Gear.
Starting point is 01:11:35 I golden ticketed for, oh, you actually golden ticketed that. It's on the list. Oh, I'm not golden ticketed Resident Evil for. So that's two golden tickets. So we got three left. I got a golden ticket that I haven't used.
Starting point is 01:11:44 I've got a golden ticket. Wait, so just to be clear. We have six on the list. So three golden tickets, that's nine games. So there's one game that we're voting in. And that's why this is a dumb. This is the exercise, but... I'll throw a crazy one.
Starting point is 01:11:59 Well, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. Oh, such a good game. It's not the best Tony Hawk, though. Two over Underground 1. I feel like we need to get our golden tickets out of the way. Otherwise, the vote is stupid. I think so, too. I think we should cut to the chase, if you will.
Starting point is 01:12:16 Fine, I will golden ticket in Final Fantasy 10. I will do that. Wow. Such an unoffensive golden ticket. What do you mean? Why am I trying to be offensive with my golden ticket? It's something that means something to me.
Starting point is 01:12:27 Because it's like, it's like so many people in the audience were like, yay, my favorite games. I don't care about them. This is my life that I lead. He loves Final Fantasy 10. And also, you saw Lulu. I did see her.
Starting point is 01:12:37 You know, you're just flashing out because you can't figure out your situation. I know my golden ticket. That'd say is? I'd like to put on inscription. Oh, I thought he might. I thought he might. Okay.
Starting point is 01:12:50 I respect that lot. He's not going to get a caught on this list anymore. No, I know. I made a sacrifice. Did we just sacrifice Call of Duty for that? That's a Y. It's with Y, yeah. My golden ticket. The first I is a Y, sorry.
Starting point is 01:13:02 Is Knights of the Old Republic. Okay. Wow. That's a little guy. My old friend. That's respectable. Thank you. And I can't wait for the remakes.
Starting point is 01:13:10 Why didn't you use your right hand to shake my hand? This isn't old. Did you see that? Yeah, it was like a little Trump. I did a little Trump. I did a little Trumpian. Is that. played Red Dead. Red Dead Red Dead Redemption
Starting point is 01:13:21 2. So we have to vote one thing in? Yeah. We've won. Okay. This is the most fucked up list of all time. Generally, I like this list a lot. You can tell the age of the people's list. Yes, yes. This is a 30-year-old list for sure. I'm really quickly just getting rid of all the Mario's in my head.
Starting point is 01:13:38 No Mario Kart game is going to be on here. No Mario Party is going to be on here. Here's, I would say 64 is for everyone, just for everyone listening, it's Super Smash Brothers Melee, Super Mario 64, Dark Souls 3, Resident Evil 4, Minecraft, Metal Gear Solid 2, Final Fantasy 10. Metal Gear Solid 2, what?
Starting point is 01:13:53 Sons of Liberty. Sons of Liberty. Final Fantasy 10, inscription, Knights of the Old Republic, and we have one more to vote in. And... A HAL3, just put it on there. Let's vote a new game. Is this a crazy rule? A new game?
Starting point is 01:14:07 Modern-ish. If you think about my suggestion, it's kind of new. What's your suggestion? Breath of Wild. Counter-Strike. Oh. Counter-Strike 2. Counter-strike 2.
Starting point is 01:14:16 I think... The game. Counter-strike's weird. because it's like you have to pick CSGO or CSGO but I think
Starting point is 01:14:26 I'd say CS2 just as easily to be honest Counterstrike is interesting because it's like institution that started from a mod which is kind of beautiful
Starting point is 01:14:33 and it's this it's a discipline right CounterTrack is a discipline much like league in a way but Counterstrike is less changing League changes with every fucking crazy patch but this is like
Starting point is 01:14:44 you still at the end of the day Dust 2 is still the same dust 2 from like 20 whatever years ago I think picking a Counterstrike is kind of weird because it's not saying we shouldn't because we said we were men. But it's kind of like saying like, I preferred basketball, 1990s basketball. It's like, okay.
Starting point is 01:14:59 But it's like we all like basketball. It's still basketball. Rules are pretty much the same. My vote's Counterstrike. I mean, come on. I would be happy to be Counter-St if we're going to put a shooter on. I think it's got to be CS. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:11 I respect Counter-Strike. I don't even play it. But I used to play it and I care about it. And it means... Everyone has played it. And that means something too. Oh, true. I mean, it's a great unifier.
Starting point is 01:15:23 I think, like, you can enjoy CounterStrike at many different skill levels. I don't think you can say to say I'm about a lot of years. It's also the only game. I think CounterStrike and probably Minecraft, I guess. Counterstrike and Minecraft will be the two games on this list that I bet people, like kids 10 years from now will be played.
Starting point is 01:15:39 Can I offer a counter? Yeah. Club Penguin? CP? Oh, the defunct CP. You want CP on the list? I want CP on the list. Founded by a fellow Colona British Club.
Starting point is 01:15:50 Yeah, can I get Larry Ellison's CPLS? No, not. I'm down for CounterStrike. I'm down for CounterStrike. I'm closing it out. Good list. Actually, good list. Not a bad list.
Starting point is 01:16:00 Really good. Inscription is the real curveball here. I like inscription on the list. I do too. Count of Check 2. It gives it character. Yeah. We can say Counterstrike 2.
Starting point is 01:16:09 There's a good list. All right. Throw it on XE Everything app. I think we feel okay. We feel like... I'd be fine with that too. I'd be fine with that too. But you can't put one point.
Starting point is 01:16:20 Now that's two like virtue signaling. Yeah. That's like too like I know my shit. I like two. Two's great. I liked every counterstrike I played. I like what they've done with Smok. Can we make Minecraft 1.16? Absolutely not.
Starting point is 01:16:33 It's so great. Go to a bastion and suffer for once in your fucking life, idiot. What do you mean? I have. I've beaten 2.11. Thank you well. Finalist. Super Smash Bros. Malay. Super Mario 64. Dark Souls 3, Resident Evil 4, Minecraft. Metal Gear Solid two sons of liberty.
Starting point is 01:16:48 Patriots Pocket Patriot Edition Final Fantasy 10 Inscription Knights of the Old Republic and Counterstrike 2 Okay I have a hot question
Starting point is 01:16:57 What do you think It's the most underrated game A game that everyone shits on But you think is a golden star Wow that's an amazing question Like an off the beaten path People have to like Document and have shit on it though
Starting point is 01:17:10 Because some people draw out some shit It's like oh yeah Actually like Resident Evil like Thor I recently This is like so me but like I recently had a game that I've shit on my whole life and said sucks and everyone else told me was good and I went back and played it and I was wrong and I was like this is awesome which game black hops one oh I had so much fun playing black ops one does rip I think League of Legends rips I don't get why people say like it's a worst game of all time and it's like shit I don't think any this is my take on that this guy right here I'm a league hater I feel like most people who say league sucks are talking more about the surrounding environment of what it represents and who plays it and not the mechanics of the game.
Starting point is 01:17:52 They are also... I agree with that completely. They are also, in addition, talking about the way it captures you as a person, and League becomes the only thing you do and the only thing you play. But that makes it a good game. I agree. I disagree because I think the game is almost auxiliary to all these systems of, like, dopamine and capture.
Starting point is 01:18:11 If you can put you in the Gen Jutsu, then is it not a great... Okay, fentanyl. No, no, that's a terrible... Pemtel was a great thing. I think of drugs. Another great warrior. Yeah. Top dead on the list.
Starting point is 01:18:22 What? Yeah. If it sucks you in, that doesn't mean it's good. Yeah. I feel like league is like an unfathomably beautifully balanced game for what it is. The fact that game is that much shit
Starting point is 01:18:33 is playable. It's unbelievable. No, it's such a bastardization of the Moba category. Like, Moba should be more complicated. Dude, can I tell you? It's Dota, the original Dota is completely more complicated.
Starting point is 01:18:44 What rank did you peek in league? I barely. It should be more complicated. Because League is like, I feel like when I play league, I'm like drooling and my fucking brain is turning to do. And you're just rank it up. No. Because it's just like such a simple game. Just because I don't dip my toes into, you know, shit.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Doesn't mean, you know, I can't tell you it stinks. You got a lot of opinions on crack for a guy never smoked it. No, because I just think league is such an over, like, it's such an accessible version of a game that like if you try. Dota too. You would love that so much more. It's how I feel about Valorant and Counter-Strake. Valoran is like an entry level into a genre that's way more interesting. And so I
Starting point is 01:19:27 want people to jump from Valorant to Counter-Track to understand how shit Valorant is. I think as someone who is used to think the way you did until I played hundreds of hours of league, I think there's a more nuanced adversary thing going on here with Dota and League. And it actually doesn't have to do with which one
Starting point is 01:19:42 is more complicated. It's just like which one rewards what. I think League is super complicated. But Dota is complicated in a way that is isn't, it's like laterally. It's just a little different. I just think Dota's a better game. And I think it is too, but I don't, I would never care enough to argue the difference because people who play league are just going to play it. And they're not going to try Dota. Because the turn rate is going to make them not play.
Starting point is 01:20:06 It's a shame, dude. Like all these streamers who played Voward and now they're playing Counterstrike, I'm like, thank God. That is interesting. And now they can identify, they can't go back to Voward. It sucks. But I don't think it's the same, It is the same. The transition isn't the same. It's not the same. I actually think it's so funny to boil it down to one thing, but what tilted me about Dota so much is the dumb fucking turn radius.
Starting point is 01:20:29 It's so fucking annoyed. It's like it's the opposite. It's going to a game where moving feels worse. The like baseline mechanic. I mean, I don't know. I just feel like. And there's no way to like counter it. I swear to Jesus Christ and Fat Gabbin and his yacht right here right now.
Starting point is 01:20:46 if they took out the turn rate in Dota and replaced it with the snappiness of league the game would capture millions of people. I love Dota. I love Diod. I see it on Dereid. I think league has like network effects where everyone's playing it so you're like, I'm going to jump into a mobile
Starting point is 01:21:02 so I'll play league. But like if everyone's going to be talking about turn radius, it would be just like oh yeah, let's queue up and they'll have a more fun time. We just need a leader. I argue the difference here is StarCraft 2 is considered
Starting point is 01:21:15 the inferior StarCraft. It has an amazing snappy turn radius with its units as well. Yeah. There is no lag. And as a Dota player, before I played League, I played Dota and then I played StarCraft 2 and was like, Jesus Christ, it's fun to move units in this game. Sure. There is a desire to not have a turn rate.
Starting point is 01:21:30 I guess. Yeah, yeah. And that's all I'm saying, the politic here. Yeah, I think that's fair to say. The politic care. Like a nitpick about Dota is fine. But I think it's a better game than League. League has so many other issues.
Starting point is 01:21:40 I think, yeah. But it's neither here nor there. Neither here nor there. And Riot updates games too much. they're nasty people but they've got there's three fucking people working on the game yeah it's all bullshit and it's all the glovering it's and bullshit
Starting point is 01:21:53 and we're gonna fucking kill out radiance bro it's crazy bro we're gonna die for jeopardy I'm gonna fucking there's nothing to do about it he's been on a lot it's like an interview of Gabe from last year
Starting point is 01:22:06 and they're just asking him what he does every day dude he just lives on his like yacht fleet like he's a few boats around him he works he's like I love working I work every day. I wake up, I work, I scuba dive, and he lost a bunch of weight,
Starting point is 01:22:20 and that's his life. He's like, he's so cool. He's just a billionaire, but with a gamer fucking version of it. Yeah. It's the same shit. It is. It's the same shit.
Starting point is 01:22:29 It's Jack Bezos, but he's got hair. I like that he scuba dives. Fucked up, man. I like going to billionaire scuba dive. He's so relatable. I just want to radicalize one person from the Squeaks episode. He's finding the one piece.
Starting point is 01:22:42 It's kind of hard to remember games that everyone hated that you loved. Yeah, I'm like thinking really hard. I know they exist for me, but I just can't think of them Basically every game I play on stream people hate, but I love like what jump king Bogo stuck getting over rid? Would you play those alone? Would I play those alone? That's the question I have that's the question I've got a gross amount practice I loved Overwatch when it came out I like overwash now I think it's fine though
Starting point is 01:23:07 It's good people are saying it's resurging super tiffs with the streets have told me. He's my guy Yeah, I mean I've been enjoying it. I'm jumping back in. Oh, I have one I did this is it's a easy. Every time it comes up in the show, I get bullied. What did? I play Diablo 4. I'm a Diablo 4 player. He's coming out of the closet. I'm not going to care about. I'm I'm too dumb to play B-O-E. I'm intentionally given people HIV.
Starting point is 01:23:37 It's so funny because I can't even say it's underrated because I think it almost deservedly gets all of the criticism that it gets. and I just know I'm eating slop But I'm I It's that self-awareness that's important So maybe it's not underrated When you play slop and you say it's slop That's really important
Starting point is 01:23:55 If you play slop and you're like This is the goat Then now something has been culturally lost I log on I played the worst story I've played in a video game And I shoot a bunch of bad guys And I enjoyed my slop I mean the answer has to be a wildly popular game
Starting point is 01:24:08 Because no game that's like smaller is hated on Yeah It all kind of coalesces right Yeah, it's tough, I don't know Do you got one time? No, I only like bangers I only fuck tens I think I have a real answer
Starting point is 01:24:27 Yeah, so people, when they talk about Like hardcore like cart racing fans You know, there's obviously Mario Kart Exist, but a lot of people talk about Crash Team Racing The first one that came up That's a good one. But I actually think Crash Nitro Kart
Starting point is 01:24:41 Which is the second one in that series Now we're cooking. I think Crash Nitro Kart is such a good game. Mechanically, it's really, like, fluid and fun. I think it had a bunch of, like, creative shortcuts. Crash Team Racing has a bunch of that stuff, too. But I really, really think Crash Nitro Kart gets overlooked.
Starting point is 01:24:59 But no Mario, so no one plays it. It's the same thing with, like, almost all racing. Another great cart racing. That's what I felt about Halo 4. What platform was? Halo Reach, I felt that about. Really? You loved it?
Starting point is 01:25:10 It was on a few. It was on PlayStation 2 as well, I think. I play this game on stream. So the only game I've ever been, like, actually fucking yelled at by other streamers for playing. It's just this game I love. It's like an online co-op game called Spell Brigade. Oh, fuck you, dude.
Starting point is 01:25:23 Oh, oh, it's, oh, it's, oh, my God. Yeah, I remember Aziz. What? He, he's, like, he's, like, he's, a good guy. He pretended that was a sponsor. It's, like, and, like, we're doing a thing we're rotating games. He's like, yeah, I'm going to put hashtag ad in my title
Starting point is 01:25:37 as I launch up an unknown game. There's a miscommunication with Tim, but it's an indie game that I love. And by the way, fucking break. Can you pull up? Spelbergate Steam, pull it up. Just look at the reviews, by the way.
Starting point is 01:25:49 I feel like I've been, because I play this like, first week he came out. It wasn't about the year of family. It was the dishonesty. I was early to it. And look at the reviews. 3,000 reviews vary.
Starting point is 01:26:02 What's a percentage? Very positive. What's the percentage? Just hover. Go back and hover. Oh, yeah. 59%. Oh, 83%.
Starting point is 01:26:10 Very positive. Yeah, but like you that sounds like a good ass game. On 11,000. It's probably an amazing game. But Ludwig's like, what do you mean? Probably you played it.
Starting point is 01:26:19 Yeah, but I was like saying, let's play Mario. Ray was like, let's play, you know, counter strike or whatever. And Luddery's like, Spellberggrade on Steam right now.
Starting point is 01:26:26 You're gonna go and Ludwig. So I'm in a bad mood playing this because I think I got swindled into a sponsor and I get none of the fucking benefit. So that's what the animosity is. Am I crazy from enjoying playing? It was or wasn't a sponsor? That was a question of the game.
Starting point is 01:26:39 I've never been paid to play it. I just love it. But are you lied during it. I'm sorry. I enjoy Spell Brigade on my Alienware PC. He lied about it being a sponsor. And it was... And it was not a sponsor.
Starting point is 01:26:52 Yes. And you just chose some game at random. Yeah, it's just a game that I like. You just on Steam browser around. Just like SpellGid. That's a really funny bit. Is there any sort of code I could use if I want to... Not that I'm aware of.
Starting point is 01:27:07 Legally I have to tell you I was paid, but I don't know a code. Wait, you were paid? No, no, I was not paid. It's not a sponsor. But he would have to tell you. If I were, I would have to say legally, I'm sponsored to play Pelperate. If I was. Does that count as him?
Starting point is 01:27:19 Oh my God. It's the lightest because you know. It is the exact. It's so annoying. But yeah, I guess Spel Brigade count because it was annoying as fuck. Congrats. It would be funny to see one of these lists. And you know, none of those games on there were actually surprising.
Starting point is 01:27:32 Honestly, besides inscription. But it's like one of those lists and then someone just puts, what is it? The Journey of the Centered Girl of the Earth or whatever. Dude, that's just going to be the library. The librarian's list is the fantasy life. Refantazio, persona one, two, three, four, five. Mahjong, Mahjong, Sam.
Starting point is 01:27:53 Yeah, well, I think we did some honest, good God work here. I would like to actually to hear from our patriots. Our patriots. Oh, please. I'd like to hear from our patriots on what they- Your top 10 games. Just give me one. Actually, maybe give us your golden ticket.
Starting point is 01:28:06 Give me your golden ticket. Golden ticket and explain why, which is important. In the comments. Give me your golden ticket and explain why in the comments. Last week, people, we asked about their grade gaming moments and it was actually interesting to read people's greatest gaming moments. Wow. No, you didn't. It was on the Patreon. There's so many comments in there. It was on Patreon, you don't have access to that. It's patreon. It's not a Patreon. He does not care about you.
Starting point is 01:28:25 And that's a good thing. They give us money? Yeah, they do. Cool. Those people give us money. I'll take that. What do you, what do you think of Kelby? I love Kelby. Why? Well, I haven't had many interactions with them, but he's just such a nice positive. He has like a nice face. Right. She's easy to talk to. He's not very non-judgmental. from this office? You met Kelby? Yeah. You're talking about Kelby? I met him a couple times. He seems like a nice guy. Yeah. Again, you say that. You're talking about the exact guy. What do you guys think? What do you think I'm talking? What's wrong? I'm telling. What are
Starting point is 01:28:52 what you think about a guy? Maybe I met a woman named Calby recently. No, no. Kelby. Kirste from the office. What's wrong? You guys don't like Kelby? I love him. Why do you love him? This side of the room's got a lot of vitro. Oh. You love him. Love him. Love him. Why do you love him? I know why he loves him. Because of our bans. We go back and forth. W bans. And he makes,
Starting point is 01:29:15 does he make a lot of money for the company? Oh my God, dude. He sent me, I was taking a walk and my phone buzzes and it's two messages from Kelby
Starting point is 01:29:23 on Discord. We don't talk a lot, but we do talk sometimes. And it's just without comment two videos of him playing, I think Marathon, that new game. And he's like playing marathon
Starting point is 01:29:34 and it's like him getting a double kill. Sloppiest shooting I've ever seen in my life. life. And I was like, and then he just said, shotgun is OP. And I'm like, what the fuck is going to start typing back? And then he deletes them. And he says, sorry, wrong person. Oh my God, yeah, wrong person. And I was like, was going to say, LeMau, but I, and I didn't have the heart to tell him, because it's honestly a very vulnerable thing. The shotgun was OPE.P.
