Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the Video Gamers podcast. It's time to find out once and for all who the true video game master is. We already know who's the best at picking Game of the Year candidates, but can I also assert my game dominance? Well, get ready to join in on the fun, because on today's episode, we're playing Video Game Jeopardy. Will this be a train wreck? Probably. Will it be fun? Absolutely. But before we get to the competition, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh, and joining me, this co-host of the infamous video gamers podcast has spent the last four months on vacation traipsing around the globe. Who is? It's Ryan.

Wrong. Wrong. It's been for. Five months. It's been five months. It's been a year. You've forgotten a year. I do like how Ryan was like stunned for a second there. And he was like, wait, why is Ace jumping in on this? We coordinated that Ryan. Yeah, I can tell. Yeah, I could tell. Well, it was poor coordination, but you guys coordinated. Oh, how do you? You tried. No, I am, I am happy to be back. I spent a, I spent a little bit of time in the East Coast. And it is a great place. to visit, but I am back in the land of milk and honey on the West Coast, baby, and here to record. So here I am. We missed you, man. I love you, buddy. Ace and I did a good job holding

down the fort, but it's not the same. Well, that's, yeah, I mean, that's, we're glad you're back subjective, but yeah, I'm glad, I'm glad I'm back to. You missed some good indies. I did? Did I? Did I, did I? Oh, man, I saved my eyes. Constance. I think I saved my eyes. Constance. No, no, no, I watch your guys stuff on that. That, that actually looks pretty good. So I'm excited. It does look pretty good. All right. And joining us, he'll be tonight's Alec Trebek, probably making it sound like he's so smart just to diss Ryan and I. But we all know he had to Google the answers.

It's A's. Well, you know, I had to Google the answers because sometimes my brain betrays me. But these are mostly from my own head. Okay. Take that as you will. Listen, for our listeners, for our listeners out there, this may be one. If you get a chance, you want to check out the video because Ace has a full on Jeopardy board that he has created.

We are playing Jeopardy and this is no, I mean, Ace has gone out of the way to make this Jeopardy. I had a little time on my hands. Yeah. So if you, you know, if you want to watch and play along with us, we are on video. We're on YouTube. We're on Spotify. You can watch the video there as well. But we are going to get into this.

I just don't want to suck, man. I just don't. Okay, here's the deal. Like, I feel like, you know, I have all this game knowledge, but can I access it, like, on the spot? This is what you need to do. Do what I do and recognize that you're already going to lose. And so then you're just free rolling, baby. I have, I have a dead spot from, like, 2012 where all I played was Skyrim and, like, destiny from 2012 to, like, 2018.

Like that was it. So there's a big gap. And then like I know there's some newer games and A's said that a lot of the stuff's newer here. But man, I'm just. I tried to tailor this to you to the best I could honestly. Just. Yeah. I'm worried. All I know is I'm concerned.

He's like, this is going to be. I am personally concerned and people are going to yell at their, their radios and their headphones and their screens and everything. They're going to be like, you ding dong like that's this. Like, how do you not know it? It's so easy when you're not. on the spot. Ryan, also, I would like to congratulate you on your victory today because, you know, it's very obvious that you're going to pull away with the victory on this one.

So congrats, buddy. Also, guys, since we haven't done a game court episode in a little while, this episode will be a punishment episode, which means the loser. Please let it be, Ryan. I'll take it now. What do you give me? What are you giving me? The loser of this episode will be punished by our community.

This is one of the perks that we give the epic and legendary tier. Wait, is epic and legendary? I think it's just legendary. It's just legendary. Yeah, it's just legendary. So for those truly legendary people out there, you guys get to vote on the punishment for the loser this episode, which we will then do on the, I won't say the next episode, but we will do on a, please, an episode coming up very soon.

All right. And then we do have one awesome supporter of the show to thank a huge shout out to Relentless Rex for signing up for rare status helping support this podcast. Just like all the other awesome people out there. So thank you Relentless Rex for making that possible for the world. And then to welcome Ryan back, what better thing to do than to have Ryan read a review? So, Ryan, you got one for us? I do. I have a review from, again, we went over this about eight times, and I'm going to say it wrong again.

We must answer in the form of a question for people that may not be super familiar with Jeopardy. If you guess wrong and the other person gets it, you lose points for guessing incorrectly. If neither person gets it, you just don't get any points. We have a way to keep track of points. That may or may not happen quite often as well. All right. All right, boys. Let's play some Jeopardy.

First and foremost, let's reveal the categories. Categories are games of 2025. indie games, gaming icons, tragic deaths, and the gaming worlds. I have the buzzer locked currently, but I'm going to unlock it. First to buzz in, we'll start us off. All right. All right. All right.

I told you. I told you. I'm so bad at these, dude. I'm just so bad. I will give you the most, I will give you the most ridiculous facts out of nowhere and like things that nobody would ever think of, like, and I have harvested in my brain, but if you

This character's death in the prologue of The Last of Us sets the entire tone for Joel's journey. Ryan. Oh, dang it. Who is Joel's daughter? She has a name. I'm going to need you to be more specific. Jane.

No, I don't want to. Who is Jackie Wells? He got it. And he needs the help. Let's be honest. Oh, come on. All right. I don't know if people could hear.

I was furiously clicking my mouse as fast as I could try in Ryan's method. And then I don't know what happened, but it just booted me from the room. Oh, so tragic. Trash, test. for 400, Bob. Chagic test for 400. This daughter of Kratos was killed along with his wife in a frenzy caused by Aries. I don't know the daughters.

They are not eager audience. No, I don't know the idea. I don't know her name. I could have said that he killed his wife and daughter. I know that's why their ashes are what make his skin the color that it is. Yeah, but what was her name? What was his daughter's name? No, we don't know.

All right, contestants, you were out of time. I'm a lame. Her name was who is Calliope. Calliope. Oh, Calliope. If you play Ragnaud, you don't know that. Calliope is a mythological name like Ophelia and some others.

I click that's so fast that it said it was 42 milliseconds behind. 42 milliseconds off. It's so sad. Ryan, pick the category. Wait, hold on. What's the score? The score is 1,300 to 1,200. Josh Wade.

Oh, I want to see Ryan's mouse up on the screen. All right, no, 100%, bro. This is paintball, buddy. I got, I got quick fingers. Yeah, it's quick fingers. All right, so let's do, uh, on camera. Let's do Gaming icons for 100, Bob

Dang it, I was whooping his butt, man. What's going on here? This character known as the Blue Bomber has started dozens of games since his debut in 1987. Josh. Oh, yeah! Who is Mega Man?

That is correct. Yeah, there we're going. It's only... Point 5-4 or 5-4... I know. People can't see us how tightly buzzing. You guys are like, furious like,

what we're using, the program we're using shows you how fast each person like buzzes in related to the other one. And the last three have been within like 50 milliseconds. I don't know how, that's fast.

That's all I know. All right, Josh, category is yours. Oh, it's me. Okay, let's go,

let's go back to indie games. Indie for three, Hyundai for three. This indie puzzleer about building an impossible rooms in a mansion earned critical acclaim. Ryan. What is? Oh, no.

Oh, no. Blueprints. That's, all right. You got it. What is? Yes. Oh, come on. Oh, my gosh.

Ryan pours into the league. I'm not even kidding. I'm not even kidding. That was just, like, I knew what it was, but like I didn't know if that was what it was. If that makes sense. I gave you a okay amount of time to be okay with you getting that. Thank you. Thank you very much for that time.

That was a fair amount of time. It was a fair amount of time. It was a fair amount of time. instantly, like I pictured my misery and pain. Like, so, all right. So we'll do it. I'm not, I would, I would, wait, I would like to just say, I'm not feeling so great. I don't know what's happening here.

No, no, no. You'll bring it back. I don't think Josh, I don't think Josh realized how competitive I get. I need to ice Ryan a little bit. Let's, let's take a break first, Ace. Okay. I need, I need to ice. Oh, here we go.

Twitchy thing. Hey, we got to take an ad break, man. Come on, Ryan. Yeah. All right. Let the corporate suit, see what they do. After this.

All right, we're back. I have sent somebody to investigate Ryan's mouse. Unfortunately, there is no foul play. Ryan is just pretty fast at clicking the button, apparently. And then he is hoping that he knows the answer. Current score. That's 100% start doing.

I'm not even going to look. I'm just going to click and then just hope I know the answer. That's absolutely my strategy. I'm not even lying. For those just tuning in, Josh is at a score. with 1,400, with Ryan pulling ahead at 1,500 points.

Coming back from a negative 200. Negative 2, baby. Yeah! All right, let's do this. Is it me? Yep, it's you. Take you pick.

Let's keep it going. Indy 400, Bob. Indy for 400. This surreal walking sim lets players explore claymation environments. Ryan. 0.2. 1.2 milliseconds.

What is midnight 1st? What is men I walk? What is the myth I walk? Yes. Yeah. Bro. How is that even humanly? Okay.

Okay. Something's going on here. The human reaction time is not, is, is longer than point two milliseconds. Okay. So you explain to me how Ryan is clicking in like within a point two milliseconds of ace unlocking the button. Anyways. I have to lock it. I'm calling shenanigans.

I'm calling shenanigans. on this. No, no, no, no, no. No, there's no way that's faster than human reaction time, Ryan. It is absolutely. It is absolute. Humans cannot react that quickly. Listen, listen, listen. All you literally have to do is just click

the button until it unlocks. Don't do that. Why would you do that? This is against the nature of the game, Ryan. If I had the button open, they'd be like buzzing in early. Yeah, that's the thing. No. once it opens. You know what? I want to put my reading speed back on the clock.

All right, Ryan. Since Ryan's cheating on the button. How is that cheating? What is cheating? What are you talking about? You're like auto-macroing the button to buzz in. I'm clicking the same as you. You have every opportunity to click this button and you're just too slow. You know, you're not in your age. I understand it. And it's cool. It's cool, man. It's like, but it's something that you're going to have. have to live with. I'm turning on the auto click feature. So I'm going to continue my winning ways. 10,000 clicks a second. I'm going to select indie at 500. Indy at 500.

This tactical RPG about defying a painter's curse became a game of the year contender in 2025. Jop. Yeah! Eat it, Ryan. What is Expedition 33? Oh. What is Claire?

Yeah. Suddenly it's not a big issue. you anymore. Oh, look at this. Thanks for... Thanks for teaching me your strategy, right? Yeah, a thousand percent. Why would you not just click the buzz button? Because I was trying to be honorable and like waiting for it to unlock before I clicked it.

No. For those not watching the screen, we are down to gaming icons and gaming worlds as our categories. Josh, you got the last one. Let's go gaming icons for 200. This Treasure Hunter debuted in

2007 on PlayStation 3 and has been compared to Indiana Jones. Josh. No way! Who is Nathan Drake? That is correct. Yeah. I guess, yeah, Treasure Hunter. I was going to say, what is it?

You wanted me to name the game? I was going to let Ryan buzz it. No, these are the icons of the game. Yeah, yeah, that's true. That's true. Oh, I don't know how he got that help. I wish you would have been wrong. Yeah, whatever, dude.

All right. Josh. I pre-buzzed, by the way. Yeah, turn that off. Turn that buzzer off. No, no, no. You arm the button I buzzed in. I get first crack at this next question.

You get to pick the question first. You got to pick one. I don't want to lose. I don't want to lose. I love that I didn't care at all, and I already admitted to losing. And then Josh is sweating hard right now. Bro, I am literally sweating.

I was ahead by so much until Ryan figured out the stupid just letting click the button first. I was minus 200. You know what? I know what a sportsman I am that I gave you the answer. I told you what to do. That shows how the good job, Brian. All right.

Go. All right. Okay, here we go. Gaming icons. You know what? Let's skip for 500, Ace. To 500. All right.

Yeah, we're going. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This enigmatic character from Dark Souls is infamous for repeatedly praising the sun. Josh. Who is the tarnished one? That is incorrect. Right. Ryan, you have the answer to this one.

Um, who is, uh, uh, sun guy? I'm not, not specific enough. I don't, dude, I feel like I should know this, but I don't know this. Who is the lair of Astora? Oh, man, I almost had it. I was so close. I never would have guessed Saler. You really?

Because he's just tarnished. That's what they refer to him as. No, they're known as the Chosen Undead in the Dark Soul series. They're tarnished in Eldon Ring. Yeah, bro. Bro. Where are the maiden list? Where are the maiden list then?

That would be us. Oh, man. I got me a fair maiden. I don't know what you're talking about. All right, Josh. You missed that one, but go pick a kind of growing up. That's right. Ryan missed it too.

So, all right, I got a little overzealous there. Sorry, Solair for not knowing your name. Okay. It's the $500 question. Somebody out there knew that one. You're more of a Dark Souls nerd than Ace who watched a four-hour documentary on Elden Ring. And also good job.

Josh is not an Eldon Ring fan. That's not a hard question. I'm like, the dude has a name? Is now, okay, also, is that only Dark Souls 1? Yes. Is that Dark Souls 1? Specifically, Dark Souls 1. He is a character from Dark Souls 1.

Do you know how much of an icon he is to gaming? I would also like to know that I've never played Dark Souls 1. I can do the praise the sun thing. I did not know that dude's name is Salero. No, you've never heard anyone call him. Salera. A story? His name is Salere of Astoria, but I would have accepted Salair.

Okay. Okay. That's what I said, basically. All right, let's go gaming icons for 400 days. I have to check the buzzer. This iconic Final Fantasy villain is remembered for wielding the Masabune and summoning Meteor. Josh. Oh, Ryan didn't even try.

Who is Sephora? That is correct. Oh, that's the only one I know from Final Fantasy 7. Well, I didn't say seven specifically. I just didn't want to lose the points, so. That's fair. All right, Josh. Categories yours still.

All right. Gaming icons for 300. Hey, hold on. There you go. I did it. I got it. All right. All right.

Known for his glowing green visor, this stealth operative has been Ubisoft's faced of espionage since 2002. Ryan. Dang it! Who is? He doesn't know. He just been a. Oh, no.

Oh, no. You can't give him too long, Ace. You can't give him too long. All right, Josh. Yeah. Who is Sam Fisher? Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah.

People, okay. I just want to, I just want to make this known. Guys, you don't understand how hard this is like in the moment. Because I know all these answers. Well, most of them. There's a lot of like the Dark Soul stuff I didn't know. But man, dude, these answers, I knew. I knew is Columbia.

I knew is Columbia. But come on. Right. I'm just going to let you have first talk at this one. Don't even. Shut up. This city in disco elysium is a crumbling urban landscape full of political factions and intrigue.

Josh. What is Revischaul? What is Reviso? He's correct. What is Josh's an idiot? That's not what the score says, Ryan. I told you before I would lose this. We are about to enter Final Jeopardy.

Oh, Final Jeopardy! You can't catch me. I'm just going to let you, I'm not even going to bid it. Ryan gets one right. He wins. That's what we need. I guess I do have. Wait, no, I don't have to bid anything.

You don't have to bid anything. You just don't, I don't even think you have to answer the question. I'm going to bid everything. Scores currently, Josh has 4,200. Ryan has 1,000 points. I want to bet, leverage my house, please? You want to leverage your house? Okay, buddy.

But the final category will be from tragic deaths. Okay. Ooh. All right. Let me just. Tragic deaths, huh? All right. Are we bidding?

Do you DM me your bets? Oh, everything. own all my stuff all my life. So 1,000 points? Everything. All 1,000. You're not betting anything, right, Josh? I'm betting, I'm betting, I'm putting, I'm budding, uh, I'm putting, I'm betting a bet enough to where I'm $1.00. If I'm wrong, I'm a dollar ahead of Ryan. You coward. You coward, bet. Which would be 1199, not 1,200, but 1199. You coward. Or is it 2199? Wait, what's the score? You were like, it's a lot. It's a lot to a little. I just right out your score and then close the tab. Yeah, you're fine. All right, I'm bidding 1199. All right, 1199. Ready?

Now, we just both, there's no buzzing in on this one, right? No, you're both just need to basically. Wait, what? Okay. Wait, hold on, hold on. Wait, what? This is, you just, you have your answer and when A says, okay, what's your answer? Like, you'll give your answer, then I'll give my answer.

And it's either you're right or wrong. Yep, pretty much. There's no buzz. It doesn't matter if you copy or whatever. Yeah. It's too late. It's final jeopardy. Here comes the question.

this final fantasy seven characters death at the hands of Sephiroth one of the most iconic and emotional moments in video game history I know this one's so real I want to bet everything I own

and Ryan's too late who is I don't care Bob who is I don't care so are you telling me that you lost your thousand points right I lost all my points I got zero the answer is Ayrth And this is one of the most tragic deaths in all of gaming.

I may have shed a little bit of a tier. Oh, hold on. He didn't answer in the form of a question. Oh. You don't have to. It's not, look at the answer. You didn't say the full name. Oh.

Dude, I'll be honest. I had no idea her last name was Gainesville. I didn't know her last name. I googled it. Are you kidding me? Look at that last name and tell me that makes sense. Nobody knows her. Oh, man.

That just looks alien to me. It's just Aaron. Listen. Listen, listen. It's like, listen, listen, listen. Okay, so wait, Ace, why don't you go ahead and go back to the scores, Ace? Wait, did I play? Did I play at all?

I don't think I played. Wait, yep. And then what? How much am I had been 1199, so 5399. 5399? That's close, man. Ais is dying. Aces dying.

Listen. This. I was in the lead at one point. I will take that. I already said I was going to lose. I didn't expect to get anything. So I was in the lead. So tilted?

I was crashing out over the stupid buzzer thing because I could not meet you on the bus. My biggest, my biggest failure is telling you how to beat the buzzer. And that was my biggest failure. Well, okay. I don't know if that's the biggest failure because you shot yourself in the foot like three times. I also didn't know. Yeah.

All right. final score. Josh is our Jeopardy champion with 5,399 points with Ryan coming in second with a close zero. And with that, I hand the show back over to our host. Oh my goodness. Well, as the reigning Jeopardy champion of the world, I mean, look, look, that was a ton of fun, ace. I'm not going to lie. Thank you, number one for setting that up.

you had me so tilted over the stupid buzzer thing, man. Yeah, that's right. This was the biggest roller coaster ever because I was super confident coming into this. Super. And then I started blowing Ryan out of the water. I'm like, okay, this is going exactly like I thought it was. And then all of a sudden, freaking Ryan just comes out of nowhere. And I'm like, you know how you start getting that like inner fear?

And I'm like, bro, am I going to kid? Is he going to beat me? Like, am I going to lose? And then no, No, no, you're not. The world is right. The world is right again. Okay, well, listen, number one,
