• 1:22
  those categories for the week. So, Take to kind of kick things
• 1:27
  off a little bit of a introduction.
• 1:30
  So Greg is somebody that I have known for is weird to say this
• 1:36
  but we've known each other for at least a decade, right.
• 1:40
  Yeah, I know man. It's crazy to think that it's
• 1:42
  been that long for sure. Yeah, me me me and Greg go back
• 1:47
  to to our all days working at GameStop.
• 1:53
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:55
  Yeah man. We had man, how many how many
• 1:58
  different managers that we have at the time we were there like
• 2:00
  3433 ones that caused because of course, good old Rob.
• 2:11
  Yeah the original and then I can remember I can't remember I
• 2:18
  can't remember the lady's name. Was it Nikki?
• 2:20
  I think. Okay.
• 2:21
  Yeah. That that that's what was coming
• 2:22
  to my okay. Yeah Nikki and then Is Jimmy,
• 2:26
  Jimmy. Yes.
• 2:28
  I think Caleb. So, we were there with Caleb.
• 2:31
  Are you? There were just making out.
• 2:33
  Okay. How's my the last person that
• 2:35
  was? I'll wait, because I don't get
• 2:39
  it. Did did Jimmy leave while I was
• 2:42
  still there? I think I'm trying to remember,
• 2:45
  I think so. I think he did.
• 2:48
  Yeah, so sorry, baby anywho. Yeah, we went through a few You
• 2:55
  managers, we went through a few different team shuffles but I
• 3:01
  will definitely say that they're there was definitely kind of
• 3:05
  like a golden era. Yeah that we had there because
• 3:12
  you know I know I know of course you know and me and Greg know
• 3:15
  there's more than anybody. All of the bad rap and stuff
• 3:19
  that GameStop gets whatever and we agree with you.
• 3:23
  Yeah, yes we are. Everything.
• 3:25
  But we were fortunate enough to be part of one of the coolest
• 3:32
  stores. The solid team of people.
• 3:35
  Man. I like all, like, all of us and
• 3:37
  then plus, we got to hang out, too.
• 3:39
  I like that, man. We were like a family and I
• 3:42
  enjoyed that and I and, you know, at that's probably my
• 3:45
  biggest takeaway from that. I know a lot of people former
• 3:49
  workers have horror stories, but like that our store, man, I
• 3:55
  liked working with everybody that was there and it was just
• 4:01
  no matter who is there, I knew I was going to have fun.
• 4:03
  We're gonna have a good time and, you know, enjoyed working
• 4:07
  with you because you were, you were a key holder and so I
• 4:10
  didn't, you know, late nights. There was no problem saying with
• 4:14
  a few of our other people to I am, I liked it.
• 4:18
  If y'all made it fun, we all made it fun together, you know,
• 4:22
  regardless of what was coming down from the top.
• 4:25
  You know, remember the couple years we had or one year we had,
• 4:29
  we were million dollar store in our area and then we were just
• 4:33
  killing it, man. I, and I loved it, man.
• 4:37
  It was, it was great. I was, you know, I'm back then.
• 4:39
  You know, I was proud to say, yeah.
• 4:41
  I work at GameStop, I still felt, you know, an elite inured
• 4:44
  to be able to say that yellow. I work at GameStop and you know,
• 4:48
  now they're direction direction, they're going is, you know, it's
• 4:53
  not not what I remember, not one But what I would, you know, find
• 4:56
  inviting anymore. But yeah, I still miss it.
• 5:02
  I miss y'all. You know, about y'all all things
• 5:04
  to me, like I said, you're still family.
• 5:07
  Yeah, you know, and no one will take that away.
• 5:13
  You know, you know. I hope I get to see each one of
• 5:15
  y'all again in my travels. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 5:19
  And yeah, like like, like, like like great just said yeah.
• 5:22
  That, that was definitely a very Wrong team oriented family
• 5:28
  oriented group that we had. And like you said, it was just
• 5:35
  fun just because everybody there knew their stuff top to bottom.
• 5:40
  We had a variety of people who filled in the gaps of.
• 5:44
  Hey, one of us here is going to be able to answer the person's
• 5:48
  question or be able to provide knowledge and insight about
• 5:52
  whatever game may come up. Up on top of, you know, of
• 5:58
  course. No.
• 5:58
  We, we also have lots of other dope, noted conversations about
• 6:02
  everything aside from games, from Comics, to anime and
• 6:06
  younger and everything in between.
• 6:10
  And one little front that I got to share though.
• 6:14
  Because because because I have I have mentioned this before about
• 6:17
  how Greg you are the one who put me on Attack on Titan.
• 6:22
  All those years ago? Oh yeah.
• 6:25
  Yeah, man. I remember we were at that.
• 6:27
  We were at that party that little group party and I was
• 6:31
  trying to explain it to y'all are like, what are you talking
• 6:34
  about? I'm from going to look on you
• 6:36
  guys in space her like naked people.
• 6:38
  And they're big and huge and I was like, look I'm like I don't
• 6:42
  remember the name. I just saw the intro I saw the
• 6:45
  action and like Attack on Titan was like he just drew me in man
• 6:52
  and it just was a great Great, great.
• 6:55
  Great anime. Yeah, they're still.
• 6:57
  There still is. I haven't watched all the newer
• 7:00
  stuff but you know, from back whenever I first came out, I was
• 7:03
  like what people getting killed and big then all this other
• 7:07
  stuff. I'm like yo this is dope.
• 7:09
  And you know, it made that. Yeah.
• 7:12
  Attack on Titan was definitely the explaining it to.
• 7:14
  Y'all was like y'all just sat there and looked at me like this
• 7:18
  guy is weird. What are you watching?
• 7:21
  - people on anime and I'm like, Like, oh my God, give me a hard
• 7:26
  time and I'm going to ask what it is, that's what it was there.
• 7:32
  But then I remember not long after we had that conversation
• 7:38
  me actually giving it a try and I think I think at one point I
• 7:42
  ended up going past where you were at the time with the show
• 7:47
  to where you was use our way. I recommended it to you and you
• 7:49
  already begin. Yeah, yeah.
• 7:53
  Yeah. Yeah, that's a good memory.
• 7:57
  Yeah, yeah. For sure and sauce.
• 7:59
  So yeah. So that's pretty much how, how
• 8:02
  me and Greg mad. Because, of course I got a
• 8:07
  mission as well. When I have first came to that
• 8:09
  store and I was like wait, there's another black guy here?
• 8:16
  Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, man, he's gonna move
• 8:19
  in on my territory. When I was like, you know, I'm
• 8:22
  the token guy here and now I'm almost like the player was a
• 8:25
  hold of this. Dude is cool.
• 8:26
  So I'm like can't can't really hate all them like you know and
• 8:30
  I appreciate that. I'm not the only one well here
• 8:33
  anymore. So, you know it was great.
• 8:36
  I was nervous at first but you know, you came in and was cool
• 8:39
  and you know, it, you know, it was it was all good.
• 8:42
  Good. Yeah, for sure asks, how I stop
• 8:45
  Tommy and Greg, we have pretty much stayed in touch over the
• 8:51
  span of this decade. While both of us have gone
• 8:54
  through many life and work changes because of course,
• 9:00
  through all these years. When we first started, we were
• 9:03
  just, just starry-eyed Gamers, and now a decade later, we both
• 9:09
  work in the it field. You know, Mimi within the
• 9:14
  medical side and then Greg within schools and the
• 9:16
  educational side. Yeah.
• 9:18
  And we're both fathers. Yeah yeah yeah that's that's
• 9:25
  that's definitely the biggest one.
• 9:27
  That that man took my yes, work. My mom and dad made it look easy
• 9:33
  and I'm like I got to do with me now.
• 9:37
  I got to deal with me and with little man.
• 9:41
  Oh man. I get it like I get it.
• 9:45
  Yeah, yeah. Sorry.
• 9:47
  It's like I saw some meet me and Greg we've been on a a long
• 9:50
  journey and and and one other cool moment.
• 9:55
  I also gotta just mentioned as well was where's the time?
• 10:00
  Some years ago me and you ran into each other at a, at a job
• 10:06
  interview thinking. Yeah.
• 10:08
  Yeah, I'll never forget because Because I remember I had got
• 10:14
  there a little bit before you. Yeah.
• 10:16
  And and so they they are, they had our names on different
• 10:21
  tables for us to just kind of come in and sit down and stuff,
• 10:23
  whatever. And I remember seeing your name,
• 10:27
  but of course, I'm like now that there's there's other people
• 10:30
  with that name. Yeah.
• 10:32
  What are the odds? And then I remember just sitting
• 10:34
  in there and you was like, Rob and I turned around.
• 10:39
  Yeah. That was cool.
• 10:43
  I was like, Wow, wouldn't it be great for us to work together
• 10:46
  again at this place? It didn't work out for either of
• 10:50
  us, man. I was, you know, I was sad about
• 10:55
  that but, you know, I'm glad we, we arrived where we needed to
• 10:58
  be, so I don't mind, but it was great to see you.
• 11:02
  Then, you know, I was like, man, this is great, who could be
• 11:06
  working together be on a team or just even be in the same, you
• 11:09
  know, same company. Yeah, yeah.
• 11:12
  I was definitely pretty cool. Was definitely cool.
• 11:14
  This is giving them to have to. Yeah, for sure, fresh air.
• 11:18
  So like I mentioned we are going to be talking about our
• 11:25
  experiences with gaming this year in 2022.
• 11:32
  So I guess I'll ask just kind of just just a general question
• 11:36
  though. For you Greg, how how, how did
• 11:39
  you feel? How did you feel the last couple
• 11:44
  of games? Was this?
• 11:45
  Your did you feel like there's a lot of good stuff for kind of a
• 11:47
  mixed bag? You know what, what's good,
• 11:49
  what's kind of your feelings? Kind of like, looking back on,
• 11:52
  man. You know what?
• 11:57
  To me, it was more of a mixed bag.
• 11:59
  And I I guess just because, you know, we're still getting over
• 12:04
  that log down, huh? I think that was probably the
• 12:09
  biggest thing. And I think, you know, I think
• 12:13
  most Industries are still trying to get over that that lockdown
• 12:17
  hump because technically, you can't really say covid is over
• 12:21
  because people still getting cold there.
• 12:22
  But, but that big halts and Duck Shannon, and, and getting things
• 12:28
  moving along and people are to, you know, adjust their lives
• 12:32
  from being able to go into the office to being at home with
• 12:35
  kids. You know, it was definitely, you
• 12:39
  know, that took that took its toll and I think just trying to
• 12:43
  catch back up, you know, we were only on for like three months or
• 12:46
  so and it seems like it's taken a lot longer for that to get
• 12:51
  back. Yeah, you know.
• 12:54
  Now, it seems like even like with the Movies and seems like
• 12:56
  things are starting to ramp up again and there's we started to
• 12:59
  come out and, you know, but this year just felt, you know, to me
• 13:03
  it felt slow was, you know, really waiting for, you know,
• 13:06
  God of War and then Elden ring and you know waiting for for
• 13:11
  spoken. But that's still not out yet
• 13:15
  because I was supposed to be out in August and I think they
• 13:18
  pushed it back and then they push you back again and you know
• 13:24
  and Yeah, it's just it's just been a mixed bag.
• 13:28
  There's been more gaming news as far as like what Microsoft and
• 13:33
  Sony have been doing. Yeah.
• 13:36
  And I mean so that's, you know, I think that's been the bigger
• 13:41
  the bigger deal of anything and I Nei and because there really
• 13:47
  wasn't a lot to really I mean there was stuff to talk about
• 13:50
  during a gaming Awards, but I mean, most of it was just
• 13:53
  trailers and you know, it was really The battle between Elden
• 13:58
  ring and God of War and that's really what it came down to.
• 14:01
  So that tells you right there. Those are the two main games
• 14:04
  everybody and they mama was trying to play this year and you
• 14:10
  know. So yeah it was Yeah, it's mixed
• 14:16
  bag. It was that it's not where it
• 14:18
  could have been now next year 2023.
• 14:21
  Oh yeah, it seems like I'm going to be busy with, you know,
• 14:26
  trying to figure out what to do. But, you know, that gets the end
• 14:30
  of this year. It got a little crazy because
• 14:32
  God of War came out, then that I'm a Pokemon fan.
• 14:35
  So, That was out and so was trying to, you know, figure out,
• 14:39
  do I play this now door? Wait, then I'll Call of Duty
• 14:43
  came out during all that too, and I love playing Call of Duty.
• 14:46
  So I'm like, all right, I'm gonna go towards gonna win, you
• 14:51
  know, and went out with my time. So, you know, and yeah.
• 15:00
  Definitely. Yeah.
• 15:01
  Cuz cuz cuz honestly, it even feels weird that that the The
• 15:07
  PS5 and the Xbox series systems have been they just had a
• 15:11
  two-year anniversary. Yes mud and yes II.
• 15:15
  Oh way oh yeah, yeah okay. Yeah I guess it has been two
• 15:17
  years but yeah, you know. It's like you know some some of
• 15:23
  that stuff just you know you still really came just walk in
• 15:25
  and really pick them up now where I will say with the series
• 15:30
  ass because I I see those pretty often in the wall on and Walmart
• 15:34
  and stuff. I'm into Electronics.
• 15:35
  Yeah. Okay.
• 15:35
  They just they're just there but For sure, the PSI view now
• 15:38
  walking in and just grabbing one, you know, you, but but
• 15:45
  things do something. It's kind of like you said, I
• 15:47
  started to like, slowly ramp back up and stuff.
• 15:51
  But, but yeah. So but yeah, I'm I'm pretty much
• 15:55
  right there with you because because I'm, I'm in the same
• 16:01
  boat to wear and we're going to kind of talk about a little bit
• 16:04
  later in the show, but I'm right there with you kind of like,
• 16:07
  Looking ahead to stuff for next year and I'm kind of like, okay.
• 16:10
  I want to try that, you know, they're they're they're starting
• 16:15
  one that's where I'm like, okay, I need to try to make sure I get
• 16:20
  my hands on this one and try to try to see it through and stuff.
• 16:26
  So yeah, but we'll, we'll see if that actually happens, right?
• 16:29
  Oh man, I'm right there. I'm right there, man.
• 16:31
  I get it. I get it man, it's more.
• 16:36
  So Sorry, so so I guess. Um, are you ready to maybe start
• 16:40
  diving into some of the games? We did check out this year and
• 16:45
  good. Yeah, share some of our
• 16:46
  thoughts. So I'll kick things off and let
• 16:51
  me see and and listeners and Watchers are going to say this.
• 16:56
  Now, I didn't really get to play too much and did the sad reality
• 17:01
  and really even hit till I was trying to form together some
• 17:05
  type of list. And I was struggling to do so,
• 17:08
  and I know that that's bad when it is at least compared to like
• 17:12
  how I used to game even just like a couple years ago.
• 17:16
  Yeah, they used to be on it all the time, man.
• 17:18
  Yeah, I know. I know cuz cuz I'm trying to
• 17:25
  think either I wasn't even home or something.
• 17:29
  And one of my buddies from from even like from back home, kept
• 17:33
  on like, sending light like a, I was getting a notification on my
• 17:35
  phone of, like, Somebody send you an invite, some icing, you
• 17:38
  invite to play a game and I had to be like, dude, like one.
• 17:43
  That's not me. That's probably my son on the
• 17:45
  system and to, I don't even have the game.
• 17:47
  You're trying to invite me to play.
• 17:50
  So so, yeah, I'll be able to tell people.
• 17:53
  I'm like, I'm like, yeah, the starting games.
• 17:58
  You can probably tear, okay, light like God of War, for
• 18:00
  example. That's, that's going to be me
• 18:02
  playing. Yeah, but some other stuff if
• 18:06
  you see Super Meat Boy, Boy, that is probably Vash placidly
• 18:09
  boy. The game is ridiculous man.
• 18:13
  Gum groundbait no power to a man.
• 18:15
  That's the game, that's not fun. Yes, yes, but I buy it.
• 18:20
  So I'm gonna start off with with one of the few that I got get to
• 18:25
  check out. It was a game that came out.
• 18:28
  I don't even know how Kimberly feels maybe like, maybe like
• 18:31
  around summertime or something and it was a midnight fight.
• 18:37
  Express. I heard that one.
• 18:39
  Yeah. So that was one.
• 18:42
  I had I picked up. It was on.
• 18:46
  It was on Xbox game pass now. Okay.
• 18:49
  It might have been. I'm trying to remember.
• 18:53
  It might have been on other systems.
• 18:56
  I'm trying to see if I can. Okay.
• 18:58
  Okay. Yeah.
• 18:59
  It was on. Okay?
• 19:00
  Yeah. It was on switch PC PS4 and
• 19:02
  Xbox. They abide by.
• 19:04
  I played it because like I said it was on Game Pass and so
• 19:08
  midnight fight Express. Basically kind of has that same
• 19:12
  gameplay Vibe as the Hotline Miami games.
• 19:15
  Okay. Okay yeah, so so just kind of
• 19:18
  like super frantic action to where you just going into a
• 19:21
  room, trying to clear out enemies and stuff.
• 19:24
  Yes, some very Dope music playing and so it was just a fun
• 19:29
  time because I just like I put on my headphones, the music just
• 19:33
  thumping. And I'm just going in just
• 19:35
  tearing up these dudes and want one coat down kind of like
• 19:39
  throughout the game though, is that it kind of had a little bit
• 19:42
  of like a progression system and some character customization
• 19:46
  Workers, you'll be like change your clothing.
• 19:48
  Yes, cool and outfit and stuff whatever.
• 19:51
  So that how is kind of just just add a little bit of extra depth
• 19:55
  that wasn't there with Hotline Miami say, it's also meant.
• 19:59
  I tried Express, was, was one of one of the ones that that I
• 20:02
  enjoyed playing? I mean, I didn't get to see that
• 20:04
  one all the way through, but I got to put in a good handful of
• 20:08
  hours with it and stuff. So so, so like I said, if, if
• 20:12
  anybody out there has checked out Hotline Miami, then
• 20:19
  definitely check out Midnight, Express, nice nice.
• 20:24
  And I'm gonna toss it over to you Greg.
• 20:26
  So what what's what's up? What's up?
• 20:28
  That that you want to shout out, man.
• 20:32
  Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, shred of Revenge, man.
• 20:36
  Being little man played that it was we X2.
• 20:42
  We had good time finishing that up, mr.
• 20:44
  Got to work on some characters. A that for me that brought me
• 20:48
  back to man, the arcade, man. I really enjoyed.
• 20:52
  It was just a great tribute to what was done back in the 90s
• 20:58
  man. It was great to that we haven't
• 21:01
  played I've been played online with it.
• 21:03
  But having you know someone in his you know, see next to me
• 21:06
  playing with me and just you know, he's just like me.
• 21:08
  Why are you tripping? Why are you wearing so excited
• 21:10
  about all this stuff. But my man, I grew up you know
• 21:13
  seeing Rocksteady Bebop strengthened her and In April,
• 21:16
  and all this stuff and being able to, you know, play as all
• 21:19
  these guys on the arcade and actually be able to do it at
• 21:22
  home and not at the waist, any quarters?
• 21:24
  Yeah, man. Well, it's just great.
• 21:27
  I wish it was a little bit longer but I mean the
• 21:31
  replayability and to be able to level up the characters on,
• 21:35
  there's no real customization out of the fact that you're just
• 21:38
  level them up and getting them to their, their top level.
• 21:42
  But it's definitely fun. Colorful, played any I'm it's
• 21:48
  definitely it was a breath of fresh air for the time being
• 21:53
  whenever we played it just because it was this different
• 21:56
  and you know, you can just kind of veg out and just have a good
• 22:00
  time. Yeah, yeah yeah, that that that
• 22:03
  that is also one that that I dabbled in a little bit as well.
• 22:10
  I still remember just like same thing as you plan, Plan called
• 22:15
  co-op on. With that, with with with, with,
• 22:19
  with Vash and stuff. And I have a very Vivid moment
• 22:24
  of like, when we were playing at the, I think, either he got
• 22:30
  down, or he was getting overwhelmed with someone who
• 22:32
  just like that. Help help me help.
• 22:36
  Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to think. I think I might remember because
• 22:47
  I remember it having like a, a insane amount of people that can
• 22:53
  play at the same time. I believe it was more than four.
• 22:56
  I think you might be like six. So think something like that.
• 23:00
  Yeah, looks pretty good. It looks like it would be a good
• 23:03
  time to have a big group of people on there kicking butt
• 23:06
  man. So never got to do that yet.
• 23:09
  Hopefully maybe you know it's this is not a niche game but it
• 23:13
  seems like it's is We made for those guys who play the arcade.
• 23:18
  Yeah, and you know but yeah, I hope I get a chance to like play
• 23:24
  with a big group of people just to see what we can do.
• 23:26
  I play with my sister? Like think it was with my sister
• 23:31
  and little man thing I was around was it from a bank?
• 23:38
  Fourth of July. I wish I can't remember
• 23:41
  something like that. I was like, hey, get this and
• 23:44
  like, we're all three plan and see what we can do.
• 23:46
  And she was just like, you're weird.
• 23:48
  Why don't judge me? And just try to relive my Glory
• 23:52
  Days? Oh yeah, for sure.
• 23:55
  And, and all right. So, so I'll continue to touch it
• 24:00
  to you. I what, what, what's another one
• 24:01
  you got for us, man? Let me see the one listed me,
• 24:06
  see this one's recent one. One high on life man I'm a big
• 24:11
  Rick and Morty fan. Yeah and um I was trying to find
• 24:17
  it on the PS 5 and then I was like oh wait I forgot and if
• 24:22
  it's going to be a time exclusive is going to be on
• 24:24
  Microsoft. So I went to go look and there
• 24:26
  was on game past so I downloaded it and man it's such you know.
• 24:33
  I've seen some reviews and everybody's just it's either you
• 24:36
  really like it or you really don't But as far as from someone
• 24:42
  who's played alot of first person shooters, I will say the
• 24:45
  shooting can be refined a little bit but you know I mean I think
• 24:50
  it's pretty good platforming. I think it's it's good action I
• 24:54
  think it spaced out really well. I love the color.
• 24:58
  I love the artwork in there. It it almost reminds me of like
• 25:01
  one of those side stories of Rick and Morty that we never got
• 25:04
  to got to see and it's just this one little Side Story.
• 25:08
  Three and then eventually it might, you know, I'm still in
• 25:11
  the middle of it. But you know, here in here in
• 25:15
  Tustin, do his voices as the first gun I can't remember the
• 25:21
  guns name. I was just playing the early
• 25:22
  because brief when they got JB smooth as the shotgun.
• 25:27
  I was like what words, you know, it was because he because he
• 25:31
  also play Rady Angelo Harris and GTA that one and I loved him.
• 25:38
  I Them on that, on that game. On the real.
• 25:40
  Not radio station. Yeah.
• 25:42
  I'm just wasn't his station all the time because it was just
• 25:44
  hilarious. But yeah, the game is this
• 25:48
  because I think it's good and I, you know, if you like Rick and
• 25:51
  Morty and you like that kind of humor.
• 25:54
  Yeah. Definitely definitely will be up
• 25:57
  anybody's Ali. If you if you if you picking up
• 26:00
  what they put them down on Rick and Morty.
• 26:01
  So yeah, yeah, awesome. Yeah, that that, that's why I
• 26:05
  still want to try to check out some Maybe over this little
• 26:12
  break II got as well. I might try to download it in
• 26:16
  and take a look at it because because I've I've enjoyed the
• 26:20
  the clips and stuff that I've been saying ever so different.
• 26:24
  Like it might be a fun time. Yeah.
• 26:27
  All right. So for myself, one of the next
• 26:32
  ones I want to kind of shout-out is Tunic.
• 26:36
  Oh yeah, yeah yeah, yeah. That's yeah I played that it was
• 26:41
  is it is interesting zeldo mixed with some Eldon ring man and
• 26:45
  it's yeah, yeah, you think about it.
• 26:49
  I enjoyed it Sally. This is this is another one but
• 26:52
  this is going to be a repeating thing.
• 26:53
  People didn't really finish any games this year but yeah but the
• 26:58
  the hours I put into it or whatever.
• 27:00
  I thought it was really cool because I knew going into it
• 27:05
  that it would be kind of a zelda-like, because you look at
• 27:10
  a screen shot from it. You look at the name, it is
• 27:13
  named tunic here in a green outfit.
• 27:16
  He has a sword and shield. Yeah, obvious homage to Zelda
• 27:22
  but I did not expect like you said, the kind of like, like
• 27:27
  little bit of like, like he's my Elder Ren kind of like Souls
• 27:30
  like elements and stuff too because it's like Sokka.
• 27:32
  Are you locking onto enemies? Your kind of Strafing and
• 27:35
  dodging and stuff. And yeah, and want one of the
• 27:38
  things that I love that, I really enjoyed about the game
• 27:42
  was the map layout and the secrets I love me some good
• 27:48
  secrets. And I cannot count how many
• 27:53
  times, you know, you'd you go into a dungeon, you fight your
• 27:57
  way through and then, where you exit out?
• 28:01
  Yeah, it is a place to that is hidden.
• 28:04
  But if you knew it was there, you could have went in the
• 28:08
  reverse way. Yes.
• 28:10
  Yeah. Well stop and it's like has
• 28:12
  caused some of it is like, you know, like I saw you walk out
• 28:14
  and buy you look around, you're like, wait, that's that stump or
• 28:18
  whatever. And it's like this, it's like,
• 28:20
  man. So I could have came, so I'm
• 28:23
  grabbing the other way. Yeah, man.
• 28:25
  That was. Yes.
• 28:27
  I was probably 11. Take a frustrated.
• 28:29
  You like, man, I did all this and I could have just went like,
• 28:33
  man. But I like that, though.
• 28:35
  I like that about it. It was, it's definitely the path
• 28:38
  is there, if you're looking for the easy path, but hardest path
• 28:41
  that one that is presented in front of you.
• 28:43
  That's right. There is the best way to go.
• 28:45
  And so I, I definitely like that about that game too.
• 28:48
  And of course, again, they are work and just, yeah, it's, if
• 28:53
  it's a small, I guess, because I think that, that's a him, a
• 28:56
  smaller smaller company, that made their game.
• 28:58
  Yeah. I'd say they did an amazing job
• 29:01
  on that game. I did not finish it either.
• 29:03
  Yeah, but And what I played I enjoyed yeah man I can't.
• 29:09
  Yeah, that would be on my list but it's you know it's further
• 29:14
  for the hell not do it. I did enjoy tunic as well.
• 29:18
  Yeah. And and so so I just don't say
• 29:20
  yes. So so this one was actually made
• 29:23
  by one person. What's?
• 29:26
  Yeah, cuz it's funny because when you look under the under
• 29:29
  developer in literally, just has the guy's name kudos to you
• 29:34
  there. Man.
• 29:35
  Yeah, you put in the put in some work.
• 29:36
  And I appreciate that, man. And because because, because,
• 29:40
  because I kind of semi remember that because of the fact that
• 29:44
  this game was shown off across many years because I remember
• 29:48
  for years seeing like, you know, the name seem like little clips
• 29:52
  of it or whatever. And so it's like we knew this
• 29:55
  has been coming for many years. Yes.
• 29:57
  Because it's just one one, dude, working on or whatever it took
• 30:01
  some time, but did this. This was kind of cool.
• 30:04
  To see that this the finish results.
• 30:09
  And yeah, you know, I would definitely love to see maybe a
• 30:16
  secret or something of this somewhere down the line toward
• 30:19
  know, he kind of made like, take some lessons learned and kind of
• 30:25
  improve upon it because because you're like I said it was a
• 30:31
  really cool, really cool. The little gangster too kind of
• 30:34
  Play an Explorer. So, all right.
• 30:37
  So what what what's a couple more you got for us?
• 30:39
  Greg man. Um from double fine, got
• 30:44
  Psychonauts 2 man, I liked yeah, I like the first one.
• 30:50
  I just wish that we didn't have to wait so long to play the
• 30:52
  second one but you know hey you know they took their time and
• 30:57
  you can tell they took their time.
• 30:59
  Yeah. All the details are just
• 31:02
  amazing. The storyline is really good.
• 31:04
  It's kind of one of those things.
• 31:06
  Well, that's kind of obvious, but if it was really that
• 31:08
  obvious, and it wouldn't, you wouldn't, you know, wouldn't be
• 31:11
  that obvious. Yeah.
• 31:13
  This with a lot of mental health, things and all this
• 31:17
  other stuff, or even trying to kind of pull an Inception off.
• 31:22
  But you know the gameplay is still there from the original.
• 31:25
  I'll be everything is still there.
• 31:27
  They've improved upon has been until has been refined and again
• 31:32
  I didn't finish this one either. So I think I'm with the mission
• 31:36
  set up was good. It's just, you know, being a
• 31:41
  parent. I just don't have that time to
• 31:42
  sometime soon as I get on, you know, man, I got my snacks.
• 31:51
  I got my water, I'm ready to go. And as soon as I get home,
• 31:59
  you're like, okay, I'm turning this off and I wish I'd known it
• 32:04
  wasn't No, look like that, you know, but but yeah bosses are
• 32:10
  played and you know, parts that I've gotten to so far.
• 32:13
  Lockable is a little hidden places and the little things
• 32:16
  that they have in there, it's really good.
• 32:18
  I can't wait to get into more of it and experience experience the
• 32:22
  rest of Psychonauts because I really loved the first one that
• 32:25
  got back on the was a PS2 and Xbox 360 or those that have it
• 32:30
  was the original original Xbox original Xbox.
• 32:33
  Yeah. And I loved it.
• 32:36
  I thought it was great. And you know, hearing Rasputin's
• 32:40
  voice. What's his name?
• 32:42
  The guy that does Zim having him always like hearing his voice
• 32:48
  because it's always, it's, it's got a great voice for that, kind
• 32:51
  of character. Yeah, and yeah, it's a good one.
• 32:57
  Yeah. So so forth from me with that
• 33:00
  series, I actually never play the Original the original wine.
• 33:07
  Now, well, technically, I had started it because in
• 33:12
  anticipation of the new one that came out.
• 33:16
  I was like, I was okay the, you know, the first one it's up on
• 33:20
  game passing stuff somewhere. Let me check it out or whatever
• 33:23
  and it was solid. But but also of course, you can
• 33:28
  tell its age and stuff as well. So it's know if it's a little
• 33:31
  clunky because of what 2005. Yeah.
• 33:33
  But But I was also, you know what?
• 33:36
  I'll maybe just dive into the second one and and try that out.
• 33:41
  And so what what I did get to see of the second one, I pretty
• 33:44
  much agree with everything that you said because I I just really
• 33:49
  like just like how different each environment and location.
• 33:55
  Yes no and stuff looked, it was just a just a just a very cool
• 34:01
  visual presentation and stuff. So Yeah, yeah.
• 34:05
  Shantanu the Cyclone our series. What's our, what's the next when
• 34:12
  you got man? Um, I guess because everybody's
• 34:16
  been talking about it. All I guess there's more, but
• 34:20
  Pokemon scarlet and violent, man.
• 34:23
  I might have to say, gamefreak, I think on odd thing, They did a
• 34:34
  good job on the game because if you can get past all the stuff
• 34:40
  that everybody has been saying for the reviews that game is
• 34:45
  pretty detailed for what they're trying to do.
• 34:48
  And I mean like, if you can get close enough on some of your
• 34:52
  Pokémon, you can see that they were like, trying to put like
• 34:55
  like on the on my flight. Coco my call him El Fuego.
• 35:01
  That's what I named him. Like, if you look His back, you
• 35:05
  can see alligator skin on there. And I'm like my wait, what?
• 35:09
  And you know, or even on your clothes, you see texture on your
• 35:12
  clothes even though I bought a helmet and you can see like the
• 35:16
  reflection of of light on the helmet and sometimes it is
• 35:20
  certain lighting settings. You can see like they're trying
• 35:22
  to do some volumetric lighting as well.
• 35:25
  And I'm like, this game is not that bad.
• 35:28
  It's just that it's the system that is on, is slowing it down
• 35:31
  and it's it's heh. Wouldn't it plays a lot better
• 35:36
  when you're when it's not docked?
• 35:37
  Then it is handheld. I mean a handheld.
• 35:42
  Is it plays a lot better but when it's dark on your TV you
• 35:46
  can game freak did a great job. I think it's the switch.
• 35:52
  If the switch was a little bit more but robust and a processing
• 35:57
  Graphics I think because if you actually take the time to look
• 36:01
  that that world is pretty detailed and and I think what
• 36:05
  they, I mean, from the Shadows, you can even see the Shadows of
• 36:08
  the clouds moving across the ground and I'm like, like
• 36:13
  everybody's hating on this game but I'm like, I'm also seeing a
• 36:17
  lot of little details that that we never got to see and I
• 36:21
  haven't played the, the Arceus one or the one before that one,
• 36:25
  but compared to sword and shield.
• 36:28
  I still like the are that artistic look and how sword and
• 36:32
  shield looks. Yeah.
• 36:33
  Within because some there are some things that are weird, like
• 36:37
  I like the hats on sword and shield fit better but the That's
• 36:43
  on Scarlett and violent. They fit weird and like, it
• 36:50
  doesn't like the it's thicker along if you win, if you get a
• 36:54
  chance to play, you'll you'll see some are some things that
• 36:57
  they did really good. And there's some things on a
• 36:59
  really polished like whenever you're trying to catch the the
• 37:03
  tourist alized Pokemon in the raid, that animation is so
• 37:07
  smooth and so fluid even on the even on the big screen or in his
• 37:10
  Dock and it's somewhere. They've they've done some things
• 37:14
  and just the switch needs to be stronger.
• 37:17
  I think it was on a stronger system.
• 37:19
  We wouldn't have heard as much as many complaints about it and
• 37:25
  I think they did a good job. It's just Nintendo needs to, you
• 37:29
  know, Give These Guys, these developers a better console.
• 37:35
  Not that I don't like my switch, but I mean, we're pretty much
• 37:38
  playing on cell phone architecture, and or iPad or
• 37:44
  whatever you want to call it. It's not leave these things.
• 37:46
  Those things aren't as beefy. I mean, granted our iPads and
• 37:50
  cell phones can play against an impact and all that, but it's
• 37:54
  better if it's on the console or PC because it was got its got
• 37:58
  the room and and in the hardware to handle What's going on?
• 38:02
  And they'll be my biggest plan. It just needs to be on a more
• 38:06
  beefier system than not. That.
• 38:08
  I don't think everybody would have been as complaining about
• 38:14
  it, but the world is nice. Go away anywhere, or do anything
• 38:18
  and just missed a mad. I'm just impressed with the
• 38:21
  amount of detail. They were able to put in that
• 38:22
  game and maybe there was a little bit less detail and may
• 38:25
  not have been so laggy. And you know that PS and all
• 38:30
  that. But but, you know, What I played
• 38:34
  so far I've liked, and when I'm done.
• 38:36
  Like so nice. So scarlet and violet, these are
• 38:42
  the first Pokemon games that, or let me rephrase that the first
• 38:47
  Mainline Pokemon games. I have not purchased ever.
• 38:52
  So I literally bought at least one from every generation since
• 38:57
  the beginning. Yeah.
• 38:59
  And so that this was the first one I haven't gotten around to
• 39:02
  yet but Pretty much what you just said that that is not the
• 39:05
  main thing I've heard is there like like the game is super dope
• 39:09
  - like you saw like like like the the tentacle portions and
• 39:13
  stuff. And so out of curiosity I'm
• 39:16
  curious to know like do do do you still have your original
• 39:20
  switch or do you have olala door on the original switch?
• 39:24
  The one that, uh, yeah, that I got.
• 39:27
  So I didn't get the OLED because I was like, They're not really
• 39:31
  beefing up the CPU or any of the the GPU, and, you know, and
• 39:35
  because they're so small that stuff is integrated on onto the
• 39:39
  onto the motherboard. Yeah, they're just they, they
• 39:47
  really need to make a, an actual console.
• 39:51
  Console one that's got semper, GPU and a separate CPU.
• 39:56
  That are not all on the, you know, on.
• 40:00
  Degraded. It needs to be something that
• 40:01
  can handle and crunch those numbers.
• 40:05
  Yeah. And do what it needs to do
• 40:07
  because I mean that game is definitely hurting on that, and
• 40:14
  you can't really see you. You wouldn't be able to
• 40:16
  appreciate it unless it was, you know?
• 40:19
  Anyway, yeah. You don't want to know about
• 40:22
  that, but yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, I was just curious because I
• 40:26
  coz coz coz, coz after also have my My launch day switch.
• 40:32
  Yeah. Wow.
• 40:34
  What would I guess? Another reason why I didn't get
• 40:36
  the game to is because, like mice, which is kind of, in a, in
• 40:39
  a crippled state right now? No, no.
• 40:42
  We're in handheld mode. The screen is all black.
• 40:46
  I can't see nothing. Like, I can tell that it's
• 40:50
  powering on because I can see that.
• 40:52
  Yeah, the back red or whatever, but I don't know what is going
• 40:56
  on with it or whatever. But I like, when I have a docked
• 41:00
  It's fine. I said on TV or whatever yeah
• 41:02
  but I'm like I can't live like that.
• 41:05
  I understand the taking and stuff whatever.
• 41:10
  So so I'm kind of holding out hope that maybe they might.
• 41:16
  Maybe I now something newer or whatever in India in the
• 41:23
  relative future or whatever. But, but we'll go so we'll see
• 41:28
  how that goes. I Ka Kaka.
• 41:30
  Of a side question. I want to ask you to because it
• 41:31
  was just what? My house.
• 41:32
  Whatever. Have you got a steam deck?
• 41:36
  No I have not man, I've been I don't know something ever been
• 41:41
  interested in. It is definitely being able to
• 41:45
  play my Steam games on. Handheld will definitely be
• 41:48
  cool. Yeah, nice I don't know man.
• 41:52
  Maybe if I because I'm also in the middle like really trying to
• 41:57
  figure out, do I because on this side of me doing, you know,
• 42:04
  working the, it I dabble in Making music.
• 42:10
  And I need a beefier laptop because some of the stuff that I
• 42:15
  have on there, I need a beefier laptop.
• 42:19
  So I've been either. Trying to figure out do I go,
• 42:23
  you know, do I get this or do I just, you know, do the
• 42:30
  decisions, man. I got to figure it out.
• 42:32
  I got to figure out what I want. More more more.
• 42:35
  So, yeah, I'm, I'm kind of in A similar boats because because as
• 42:42
  I've been doing trying to do more stuff with with my podcast
• 42:48
  and stuff or whatever, even though there's this laptop is
• 42:53
  that I'm on, it's not even that old but it's not a matter of
• 42:57
  that. If it'd been over this, a matter
• 42:58
  of it just not being able to handle what I'm trying to do.
• 43:03
  And so I'm also on the cusp of like, yeah, I might have to I'm
• 43:08
  out. Put some money to the side and
• 43:12
  invest in something, be fear or whatever so say it.
• 43:16
  So I'm I'm right there along with you man.
• 43:19
  Yeah, well decisions man. Exactly.
• 43:24
  And so so the the next one I want to touch on which is kind
• 43:29
  of a kind of a perfect segue from you talking about scarlett
• 43:33
  and violet, the Pokemon game idea to put this year.
• 43:38
  Here, I did get to play Legends Arceus earlier this year.
• 43:43
  Nice. That was that, man.
• 43:45
  So I wanted to play it. I just never got around to
• 43:47
  buying that one. Yeah.
• 43:48
  So so I really enjoyed my time playing it cuz for for, for me,
• 43:59
  my feelings, playing that game, is that if it kind of gave me
• 44:03
  my, my first real sense of danger, playing a On game
• 44:09
  because, you know, this is, this is an older time periods, where,
• 44:15
  you know, a lot of things, whatever aren't as advanced and
• 44:19
  you're just literally out there in the wild which I know you
• 44:22
  kind of are in Scarlet about it as well.
• 44:25
  But I think just that fear of jazz fest, you know, it's not
• 44:31
  like, you know, like some of the older games were like, oh that's
• 44:34
  a Pokemon, the Overworld and they run into you and then you
• 44:37
  go into the battle animation or Ever.
• 44:39
  It is like no they are attacking me directly.
• 44:43
  Yeah, that's how it is. Yeah, it's Carl my man.
• 44:45
  This is different. I got to like Plum or course
• 44:47
  around and sneak around all these things like it's been at
• 44:52
  me, that's the kind of Pokemon game.
• 44:53
  I've always kind of wanted to play man because I mean it's you
• 44:57
  know, you see ass, you know, go do it and you know, himself in
• 45:00
  the hand of a man. You're just like what we do it
• 45:03
  too and being able to do that. Now, there's been there's been
• 45:05
  definitely fun for sure. Yeah, and It's our say us again,
• 45:10
  today was super awesome. Of course, one of the things
• 45:13
  that I loved about it is that I got to reunite with one of my
• 45:17
  all-time favorite Pokemon Cyndaquil because that was that,
• 45:20
  that was one of the starters because it was Cyndaquil
• 45:25
  Oshawott and Rowlett. Well, three, they poured in from
• 45:29
  a different previous jeans and stuff.
• 45:32
  And so it was just kind of cool just go on a New Journey with
• 45:37
  one of my favorite. Oh, c'mon and stuff, and kind of
• 45:41
  game to see this region that I've been to before, but through
• 45:47
  kind of like new eyes and stuff, just because of how they have
• 45:49
  the, the layout of the land, of course, it'd be more more fully
• 45:53
  3D and stuff, compared to the top down view of the older games
• 45:56
  and stuff. Yeah.
• 45:59
  But but by yeah, but yeah, overall.
• 46:01
  Yeah, I enjoyed my time with it and I do hope that, you know,
• 46:07
  between this and what That it bothered that they do continue
• 46:10
  to kind of build it in this Direction with hopefully
• 46:15
  hopefully by the time they put out a new tire next one and
• 46:18
  hopefully it's not freaking next year.
• 46:21
  Hopefully by then we will have new hardware, hopefully fingers
• 46:26
  crossed and stuff so just cuz cuz yeah, that that that'll be,
• 46:32
  that'll be doping much and much needed win which I do gotta ask
• 46:37
  you because Once it gets in, since we're already on the topic
• 46:40
  of Pokémon stuff. Whatever.
• 46:42
  Yeah. Well, what are your thoughts on
• 46:45
  the news of Ash and Pikachu is journey, man.
• 46:49
  I can't believe it, man. You know what?
• 46:52
  That's, it's crazy because I mean a sketch them.
• 46:56
  That's been it man in brought this tea, and then who's the
• 47:02
  girl will have little pup? I can't remember.
• 47:03
  Her name and then just all the movies that He's been in.
• 47:09
  I mean like last one I saw was with him in the in this is rude.
• 47:14
  That was pretty cool. Can remember that one.
• 47:18
  But yeah, man, I mean, I won't say I grew up with them.
• 47:20
  But for, for most of my, you know, later years in life, man,
• 47:26
  that's all I've known. That's that's who's been it, you
• 47:29
  know. Yeah.
• 47:30
  Want to be the very best like, no one ever was man, you know?
• 47:33
  And, you know, and It's I guess I, you know, it's it's crazy to
• 47:43
  see that actually I was even almost like that.
• 47:45
  With, with our 30 members Arthur on PBS, they finally have their
• 47:50
  own, their last episode and everybody's all groan.
• 47:53
  I'm like, wait, what, why are you all?
• 47:55
  Why are y'all, you know, facing all these these characters out
• 47:58
  but we well, you know, yeah, why can't we keep them around, but
• 48:02
  no, you know. Now Arthur is gone and you know,
• 48:05
  I'm like, well, dang. We're just getting old, I guess,
• 48:09
  man. And that's just that's, that's,
• 48:10
  I guess, that's how it's going to be.
• 48:11
  But hopefully this new this new girl, I'm just new, you know,
• 48:15
  protagonist that's on there. She'll be will be cool.
• 48:18
  I think or their two boys and a girl.
• 48:21
  Yeah. And hopefully, you know, you
• 48:25
  know, you know, it'll still follow the same formula they've
• 48:28
  been doing and, you know, and go.
• 48:31
  But yeah, it's definitely it's sad to see that happen.
• 48:34
  Hopefully, maybe they'll put them in a game.
• 48:38
  You know, or something? You know, they always have all
• 48:40
  the Oaks in there all the trees, you know, they might as well
• 48:43
  throw a shame there and, you know, Pikachu just for us to be
• 48:47
  able to say you know, hey or you know something or have them do a
• 48:51
  be a trainer to fight against her something.
• 48:54
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 48:55
  For sure. Yeah.
• 48:56
  Coz coz coz coz that that was third rows of wild like waking
• 49:01
  up my fact that that was a week ago now.
• 49:05
  And like I remember saying, Pikachu trending and I'm just
• 49:09
  like okay maybe some Pokemon news or whatever and I did not
• 49:12
  expect it to be like after 25 years as a Pikachu journey is
• 49:17
  coming to an end and I was like, wait, what?
• 49:20
  No. Yeah, yeah.
• 49:22
  You just say 25 years and I'm still around that's scaring
• 49:32
  think about but even though I haven't watched They watch the
• 49:38
  actual Pokemon anime stuff in a while.
• 49:40
  Of course, I over the years I've seen dope clips and stuff of the
• 49:43
  different like some cool Banner battles and stuff whatever here
• 49:46
  and there. Yeah but I might try to find
• 49:52
  these final. I think it's like I think
• 49:54
  they're going to like a 11 final episode starting.
• 49:57
  Yeah you are E2 kind of in this journey because I'm hoping that
• 50:04
  they kind of showed that he kind of like this.
• 50:07
  Like, revisit some of the Pokémon that he's let go across
• 50:10
  the years. Yeah.
• 50:11
  And maybe reunite with some of the different trainers and
• 50:15
  people that he's encountered across his journey.
• 50:18
  Yeah. And ideally for me, I hope that
• 50:24
  that may be like at the final episode.
• 50:26
  They finally let him aged a bit. Yeah.
• 50:31
  And you know, kind of like kind of like a way to kind of like
• 50:33
  segue into this new generation of life like yeah, you know.
• 50:37
  Spend my youth journey to all these different regions and
• 50:40
  stuff. Whatever.
• 50:41
  Yeah and the kind of hope that I have which I think would be kind
• 50:45
  of cool and I saw some people kind of like they're Rising a
• 50:48
  bit is like maybe maybe this new girl.
• 50:51
  Maybe might be his daughter or something.
• 50:53
  That'd be kind of cool to just kind of like at least like see
• 50:55
  his legacy keep going. Yeah it's girl stuff so we'll
• 51:02
  see how that are kind of guns and shakes out.
• 51:07
  Yeah. He'll be cool to see.
• 51:09
  Yeah, for sure. So.
• 51:11
  Alright. So back to you Greg.
• 51:13
  What is a couple more games? You, you want to shout out?
• 51:18
  Yeah man, you know, got a war man.
• 51:21
  Yeah, yeah. I'm almost done with the game
• 51:24
  is, you know, a lot to do but you know, definitely, you know,
• 51:29
  simple molecule Studios. No finest work, you know, start
• 51:34
  our, you know, balrog wedding on this one.
• 51:38
  But like you know I found this on the web.
• 51:44
  She's my baby serious listening. I mean you know as a father now
• 51:58
  may I have some of that stuff on that game hit hard.
• 52:01
  I was like, obviously obviously no spoilers.
• 52:06
  Yeah. I'm making my way through it
• 52:09
  too, but he likes the stuff like early on.
• 52:14
  It is just Oof yeah. Yeah you know and and you know
• 52:21
  I'm started saying boy a lot less now.
• 52:28
  Oh man, looks like Kratos of teaching me how to be a father
• 52:31
  sometimes man? Good lord.
• 52:34
  It's just, you know, you know, and it's just to see Kratos be
• 52:41
  different now. And I wouldn't say Vulnerable.
• 52:46
  But more compassionate. Yeah, towards that Reyes has
• 52:50
  been. Definitely those like, well this
• 52:53
  dude and, you know, you know, killed his father, pretty much
• 52:57
  most of his family all up in Greece and this is this and And
• 53:07
  his hardest fought battle is the him being a father to her boy
• 53:12
  who was exactly like him. And man, that's just as deep and
• 53:18
  as I think that's why I just his Hogs like, wow, that's yeah.
• 53:22
  Like I mean, I mean and you know, Kratos to he knows who he
• 53:26
  is as a person. But yeah, it's like he he's
• 53:34
  yeah, it's seeing him be a father seen him struggle, you
• 53:40
  know, makes me realize, you know, and you know, and
• 53:44
  Christopher judges, you know, you know, great at that role and
• 53:48
  it just Man it just was like you know don't be sorry be better.
• 53:56
  That hole was going to just like man and it's just those little
• 54:01
  moments where he interacts with the trade as well.
• 54:03
  I'm wrong for your in but there's just little moments that
• 54:06
  you're just like, okay, man, have Yugi, I see what you're
• 54:13
  doing. Kratos.
• 54:14
  I, you know, and because there's this, um, It's in.
• 54:23
  This is one scene where there and and helheim and I don't fear
• 54:27
  that on the where you are. Yeah, I'm I'm past that.
• 54:32
  Okay, 111 my boy, am I nothing? I can say to kind of like give
• 54:36
  you a clue to where I might have.
• 54:37
  I've I've gotten the drop near. Okay, so you're okay, you're
• 54:43
  good. Okay, okay, so um, but yeah,
• 54:47
  just that interaction and then I'm just like, wow.
• 54:52
  That's I'm like, and I can't wait to try not being, you know,
• 54:56
  striving to be a video game character.
• 54:59
  Father, you know, like I don't like him but the way they wrote
• 55:02
  Kratos is such. It's, it was good man.
• 55:06
  And I just, I don't know, I felt something.
• 55:09
  It was just like even, you know, Like with the sessions Creed
• 55:13
  Origins where you know, because of the scenes you know just
• 55:18
  being a father and having a witness all that stuff man I was
• 55:23
  like I'm ready to go, get him to move, it lets go and that's just
• 55:29
  but it's definitely, it's a beautiful story especially for
• 55:33
  the father son and I you know, had I not, you know, had a son,
• 55:38
  maybe I feel no different type of way, but yeah.
• 55:41
  Man, that and then the, the everything about it, just being
• 55:46
  able to explore the variety of weapons.
• 55:51
  How they changed some things with the web with the movement
• 55:53
  sense? This, you know?
• 55:59
  Letting you go at your, at your own pace and that game was
• 56:02
  something that I've enjoyed along with the story, I don't
• 56:07
  feel hard pressed to go finish because there's enough to do
• 56:12
  especially with the Berserkers. And those guys are not fun
• 56:16
  sometime and and and finally getting that the dynamic between
• 56:27
  those three and Freya and and puzzle-solving has been great
• 56:33
  and, you know, that's been fun trying to get through all that.
• 56:37
  And but It feels paste out good and everything is just, you
• 56:46
  know, fantastic. But yeah, man.
• 56:48
  That that father-son story man, that that's that's probably why
• 56:52
  it's taken me so long to get through it man.
• 56:54
  Cause I'm lying about who I am and I feel, I felt that one
• 57:00
  right then? Yeah, I'm I'm a kind of pretty
• 57:04
  much in the same boat as you with with seeing Kratos, having
• 57:09
  those moments. Have trying to, you know, try
• 57:15
  and like I said, I tried trying to light, light light like be
• 57:18
  more open, be more understanding.
• 57:21
  And also those moments of, you know, that Reyes isn't a small
• 57:26
  child anymore. He's bigger or he know, he's
• 57:29
  older from where he was in the first game from the last game
• 57:32
  and the the those moments as a parent of like, okay, you're
• 57:39
  telling me the truth. Trust you.
• 57:40
  Hey okay, you're being like Hey Dad I can do this.
• 57:43
  Hey, let me try whatever. Yeah, and it's like, it's tough
• 57:49
  because, you know, I've, you know, he like like, like like
• 57:54
  with, with my kids and stuff here, it's like, you know, it's
• 57:56
  like even, you know, Vash being five.
• 57:58
  It's like, he's at that, you know, of course, he's at that
• 58:01
  point to where he's kind of like, you know, I've tried his
• 58:03
  knees, he's like, let me try, let me try, let me do it on my.
• 58:07
  Okay. And then, you know, the day,
• 58:10
  Extreme opposite end of the Spectrum, which I guess my
• 58:13
  oldest Jae Hee is literally kind of like a tray is because they
• 58:16
  because he's 14 and the treasures probably on that same
• 58:19
  age too. Yeah.
• 58:20
  And so, you know, he's, you know, you know, doing more
• 58:27
  stuff, independently and stuff like that and like, like, like
• 58:31
  like trying to like, like letting go of, yeah, that that
• 58:37
  sense of control. Troll or whatever, you know,
• 58:41
  kind of like kind of in a way. So, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 58:49
  God of War Ragnarok is is super dope.
• 58:51
  Super amazing. Yeah, I'll look forward to to
• 58:55
  continue making my way through it because it is it is
• 59:00
  definitely one that I do want to see through to the end.
• 59:06
  Yeah. Saintly.
• 59:07
  Regardless of, you know how however long It might take me
• 59:11
  but but when it's definitely one that I for sure want to finish.
• 59:16
  So, all right, so let me see, let me look at my little less
• 59:21
  than see that it in the dirt. Okay, so another one.
• 59:28
  Now this is when I had a lot of fun with and I don't know if you
• 59:31
  got to try it out but tiny Ken. No, I haven't heard of that one.
• 59:36
  Yeah, so so tiny can is kind of like a Kind of like a Pikmin
• 59:42
  esque type of game to where, you know, you you are this small
• 59:48
  dude in this? No gigantic sized world.
• 59:54
  Yeah. And I love the look of it
• 59:58
  because it has like a really fun kind of like cartoony art style.
• 1:00:03
  Yeah, I'm looking at it right now, it looks pretty cool
• 1:00:06
  looking and that this is another one that's on Game Pass as So I
• 1:00:13
  played through the like a few levels of it and it kind of has
• 1:00:18
  I just love that sense of like we talked about with something
• 1:00:21
  earlier just like the sense of variety and the different
• 1:00:25
  locations that you're going to which they're technically
• 1:00:27
  different different rooms within this giant house that you're in.
• 1:00:32
  But just the way that they kind of like use the different
• 1:00:34
  environments and stuff for all the different because like I
• 1:00:39
  said, Granted. I never really played Pikmin
• 1:00:43
  myself back in the day but I know you know, they're like all
• 1:00:46
  the different little creatures, have different abilities and
• 1:00:48
  stuff. Yes.
• 1:00:49
  So it's kind of the same the same idea same principle here as
• 1:00:55
  so it's like I said it's just a super chill, just fun time, just
• 1:01:00
  to get to just run around these environments and stuff and just
• 1:01:04
  if you're somebody that loves Collectibles and finding a
• 1:01:09
  little Collectibles and stuff throughout the environment or
• 1:01:12
  whatever, this is definitely that type of game because it
• 1:01:15
  kind of keeps a little counter up at the top of my.
• 1:01:17
  Oh you've got x amount of this thing that's in this in this
• 1:01:23
  room or whatever. So but but but yeah tiny Ken is
• 1:01:27
  it's definitely a really cool recommended one.
• 1:01:30
  Like I said, who won one that I recommend for, for anybody of
• 1:01:34
  any age, as whether you're an adult or kids, whatever it's
• 1:01:38
  easy to play for everybody. So that's good.
• 1:01:41
  That's cool. The check that out.
• 1:01:43
  Yeah. All right.
• 1:01:47
  Do you have a couple more? You might want to shut out to
• 1:01:50
  you? Man.
• 1:01:53
  Um back for blood, I'm a zombie killing fan and I enjoyed that
• 1:01:58
  game. First person you know shooter I
• 1:02:02
  just wish there was more people playing it.
• 1:02:05
  That's pretty much about it. I mean, I love the variety of
• 1:02:08
  characters I like the whole system they use with cards and
• 1:02:12
  all that but you know, that that game came in at a time where
• 1:02:18
  there was a lot of things coming out.
• 1:02:20
  Yeah. Or Other I can t remember when
• 1:02:23
  they came out but I think it was around Halloween of last year.
• 1:02:28
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I've been playing that off.
• 1:02:31
  And on whenever they have events all all, download it again and
• 1:02:36
  and play that. And I think that's what happened
• 1:02:40
  because Call of Duty came out and was a fan.
• 1:02:44
  And so I soon as that came out, I kind of dropped that on went
• 1:02:50
  on. Guard and played Vanguard quite
• 1:02:55
  a bit, but yeah, I when I play it's fun, it's a great time on
• 1:03:01
  that game with well-crafted Scott do it and you can need.
• 1:03:06
  I just wish that because of the main thing is, like, you don't
• 1:03:11
  get to keep the guns, you just, you get whatever you get and
• 1:03:14
  don't throw a fit during the during the gameplay.
• 1:03:18
  Now, you can unlock stuff for the guns like scans and things
• 1:03:23
  like that and, you know, and some attachments, but for the
• 1:03:27
  most part, like you got to earn that all in your level and you
• 1:03:31
  use, whatever you can get in that level.
• 1:03:34
  But I definitely wish you could Keep what you.
• 1:03:39
  And I think that's probably been an that could be a turn-off to a
• 1:03:43
  lot of people with me and I being able to keep what you
• 1:03:46
  started out there. Sometimes you'll be like there's
• 1:03:48
  a really dope weapon here. Like man, I want to keep this
• 1:03:50
  but it's like, no sorry goes all the way over.
• 1:03:52
  Again is hero and, you know, everything back and you know,
• 1:03:56
  and it can be difficult if you got a group of people that
• 1:03:59
  aren't good when we are not trying to be team players.
• 1:04:03
  So it's definitely It's a great game.
• 1:04:13
  I wish more people were coming in, I wish more people anymore,
• 1:04:16
  you know, zombie-killing fans. So you know I like it.
• 1:04:20
  I like all the environments like like it all about it.
• 1:04:25
  Yeah yeah. Then there's one I want to just
• 1:04:29
  shout out just really quick because I yeah I almost forgot
• 1:04:33
  about it, whatever. But just do want to make sure I
• 1:04:35
  just show it a little bit of love and that A stray lolcat.
• 1:04:41
  Yeah. Yes.
• 1:04:42
  A little bit in the end of that. When I like that, I like what I
• 1:04:45
  played about it too. Is very cool.
• 1:04:46
  Yeah. Yeah, cuz as as somebody who has
• 1:04:51
  a pet cat, this game is very accurate but but that that was
• 1:04:57
  just kind of just like just like one of the fun things about the
• 1:04:59
  game is that like as you're trying to like maneuver through
• 1:05:04
  the levels and the environment itself from the poles and stuff
• 1:05:07
  whatever. Sometimes you have to like like
• 1:05:09
  just like just like retrain your brain from like traditional
• 1:05:13
  puzzle games. You're playing as a human.
• 1:05:14
  And yet to be like, okay wait if I was a cat what would I do?
• 1:05:20
  And also realizing that because you're a cat, you're smaller
• 1:05:24
  your more Nimble and you can get it to more places cuz cuz I cuz
• 1:05:29
  I remember there was like a like a room I was in and I was like,
• 1:05:34
  okay you know there's this there's just like gate it Or
• 1:05:38
  whatever. Like okay, how do I get through
• 1:05:40
  this? I'm like, I'm thinking, like a
• 1:05:42
  like I'm playing as a person, I can 99% of other games and some,
• 1:05:46
  okay, there's gotta be a key whatever.
• 1:05:48
  Then I'm like, wait, I'm a cat. I'm small.
• 1:05:51
  I just walk through the bars. Yeah.
• 1:05:54
  And so it's like I saw it was, it was just a fun, little little
• 1:05:59
  short experiences, his maybe like five six hours, maybe you
• 1:06:03
  can stretch, it may be 10 if you're trying to like, 100%
• 1:06:06
  everything. Yeah, but yeah.
• 1:06:09
  But yeah like I said it was just fine just to kind of just roam
• 1:06:12
  around the different levels as a freaking cat and just do some
• 1:06:16
  fun stuff. Probably like like the only kind
• 1:06:19
  of like thing. I maybe didn't like about the
• 1:06:22
  game, was these like weird little, like alien blob things
• 1:06:28
  that would chase you around. So yeah.
• 1:06:31
  Yeah. I remember the but what are
• 1:06:33
  these? Or would it be missing with the
• 1:06:34
  cat? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:06:37
  Our was weird. I'm like we probably could have
• 1:06:41
  done without that just have the cat have the robots and what
• 1:06:46
  would have been a better game for me?
• 1:06:49
  Yeah but but yeah, I just wanted to give straight A a quick shout
• 1:06:55
  outs on that front. So one of the ones I'm
• 1:07:01
  interested in hearing your thoughts on even though, I know
• 1:07:04
  it's still a fairly new game and Like I mentioned to you earlier.
• 1:07:10
  I think before we started recording I am not a big person
• 1:07:13
  of doing with horror games or horror genre in general but
• 1:07:19
  Callisto protocol. Yeah, yeah me and that game is I
• 1:07:27
  like it. The problem is is that it's it's
• 1:07:34
  so like dead space that I would rather.
• 1:07:37
  Either play dead space. You have.
• 1:07:39
  I'm going to be playing something like that.
• 1:07:42
  And the only other game that was like that, man.
• 1:07:49
  And I can't even remember the name.
• 1:07:51
  I tell people about this game often.
• 1:07:54
  It's It was dead space but with Nazis and you see if I can find
• 1:08:02
  a recorded. Yeah.
• 1:08:08
  It came out. It came out a while back.
• 1:08:19
  I think it was on the 360s and PS3.
• 1:08:23
  It was it was it didn't help me that can't do that, space with
• 1:08:35
  Nazis. I didn't pull up what I need put
• 1:08:41
  game on it and see. Nope, that's bringing them.
• 1:08:46
  Call of Duty stuff. I usually look it up on my like
• 1:08:52
  my PlayStation but I'm all my trophies thing but I miss it was
• 1:08:58
  it. It was a game that I played on
• 1:09:03
  the Xbox. I think I might have played on
• 1:09:05
  the Xbox 360 but anyway it was so like dead space that I didn't
• 1:09:10
  mind and plus it was killing zombies.
• 1:09:12
  Plus the premise was kind of cool because it was like It was
• 1:09:17
  one of the Nazis had one type thing and alternate universe
• 1:09:22
  because something happened, but then you pretty much got
• 1:09:24
  everything that you got. All the weapons were pretty much
• 1:09:28
  exact same thing. This colloquy was just Nazis,
• 1:09:32
  super cool game back then, but I played all the way through
• 1:09:36
  because it was, it was dead space but with Nazis.
• 1:09:40
  Yeah, this one is to me, it feels like dead space and
• 1:09:45
  there's They just you don't have the weapons, you're a little bit
• 1:09:51
  more free to roam around and do some things.
• 1:09:53
  They do have some interest in gameplay.
• 1:09:54
  Mechanics, like with the dodging, you can kind of like
• 1:10:00
  dogs left, right? So it was almost like you're
• 1:10:02
  boxing with zombies type thing. Yeah, just really cool.
• 1:10:09
  You're given a good variety of weapon and thing to act was
• 1:10:15
  pretty cool. It's got a I think wasn't Josh
• 1:10:18
  Hard Sell where are we with? God that was in Transformers.
• 1:10:23
  The he was the one of the guys in their cameras name I think of
• 1:10:26
  as charged Josh give credit where credit's due Josh Duhamel,
• 1:10:41
  he's in there, he's like the main character and everybody in
• 1:10:47
  there, looks like that I can recognize looks good even though
• 1:10:51
  the guy that played Starkiller in the force awakens, not force,
• 1:10:56
  awakens Force Unleashed, he's in there.
• 1:11:00
  So my man, they've done a really good job capturing their
• 1:11:04
  likeness because it is why you can tell who these people are.
• 1:11:08
  But oh yeah. I know that guy, why do?
• 1:11:09
  Yeah, I know him. Yeah, but it's definitely, it's
• 1:11:13
  got some some scary moments in that game but I think what makes
• 1:11:17
  it fun for made it fun for me, was the is a different aspect of
• 1:11:23
  getting a fighting your enemies, and other lot less shooting and
• 1:11:29
  more of, you know, bobbin and weavin and it's definitely more
• 1:11:37
  of a soul. Now, regard to where you're kind
• 1:11:41
  of happened, to be smart about your attack before you attack
• 1:11:45
  and kind of get good at bobbin and weavin and stepping back and
• 1:11:49
  blocking because blocking get skills, her takes away Health,
• 1:11:55
  but if you were managed to weave in and out or what are you
• 1:11:58
  trying to do? And then hit done, it definitely
• 1:12:01
  helps. It's it's fun.
• 1:12:06
  It's entertaining. And And I would recommend it if
• 1:12:10
  you want to if you want to play dead space like game, but for
• 1:12:14
  me, I'd rather play dead space. This class I which, which is
• 1:12:20
  coming out in a month. Yes, yes.
• 1:12:23
  And also it's not that I didn't want to not finish playing it
• 1:12:26
  but I'm like, you know, if that space is coming out might as
• 1:12:30
  well just a hold off and, you know, and play that.
• 1:12:37
  So you know, I'm ready for that game that game.
• 1:12:41
  Hopefully they'll redo two and three as well for like, well,
• 1:12:45
  all of them and hope they do. Was it a was invisible rule.
• 1:12:49
  That came out with those men. Yeah.
• 1:12:52
  Yeah. Hope they do hope they do that
• 1:12:54
  company. Some justice, you know, for
• 1:12:56
  remake on those real legs, because man, we had some remakes
• 1:13:00
  this year and well like the Saints Row.
• 1:13:05
  You man. It was embarrassing.
• 1:13:08
  I don't know why. I spent my money on that game.
• 1:13:15
  I'm I'm glad I heard about it cuz cuz my wife was interested
• 1:13:22
  in playing it because yeah. Okay.
• 1:13:24
  She's coming. Like, you know what?
• 1:13:26
  You know, maybe I'll check out that Saint's Row game, and I was
• 1:13:30
  like, marijuana. Wait a little bit.
• 1:13:32
  And let's see, how the know how. How it actually goes to, like I
• 1:13:36
  said, like leading up to the house, I'm not hearing good
• 1:13:38
  stuff and they die once he was out and I heard people talking
• 1:13:42
  about it and stuff, whatever I was like, yeah I'm done by.
• 1:13:47
  Yeah, yeah. I mean, I was more worried about
• 1:13:52
  them doing like one move. There's a one love that I like
• 1:13:55
  always doing this. The boat do come is where you
• 1:13:57
  just want up to the car and run up to the driver's side of the
• 1:13:59
  car and you just run it and you just bust through the driver
• 1:14:02
  side window, kick them out. That's like my favorite movie.
• 1:14:05
  Moving out and that whole game is just fun.
• 1:14:07
  Just to keep people out there car like that they still had
• 1:14:10
  that in there. So for a while, I gave it a pass
• 1:14:12
  just because you could do that but like it I mean what they
• 1:14:21
  didn't have Johnny Gat and it's a whole different city and it's
• 1:14:25
  a whole different, you know, it's it's even like with the
• 1:14:29
  review said, is like, who do they make this game for because
• 1:14:32
  it wasn't for me because I'm a fan of Saints, Row.
• 1:14:35
  I like that Saints. Row.
• 1:14:35
  Never took them. They took themselves.
• 1:14:37
  Seriously not taking themselves seriously.
• 1:14:39
  Yeah. It was, you know, it's thus like
• 1:14:42
  the anti-hero to GTA's hero, you know, it was definitely.
• 1:14:48
  You know what? Just fun.
• 1:14:50
  And I like it, I like the humor and now it would just just, I
• 1:14:54
  didn't want to finish it. I try to, you know, plot along
• 1:14:57
  and as much as I could man but it it just was like, this is not
• 1:15:02
  Saints Row. This is some, something else
• 1:15:04
  trying to be Saints Row. And, you know, and I saw that my
• 1:15:10
  favorite developers gearbox ended up picking up.
• 1:15:18
  That studio. So hopefully maybe gearbox will
• 1:15:25
  will do something worthwhile. I mean, they have, I mean, you
• 1:15:28
  know, you play, you know, you played Borderlands, I've been
• 1:15:32
  played Tiny Tina Wonderland, but Borderlands 2, absolute favorite
• 1:15:39
  Borderlands. Three is good.
• 1:15:40
  It's just not like to because I, you know, yeah, three 3.
• 1:15:48
  You know, maybe we could talk all day about three then they I
• 1:15:53
  still got still got some questions about three and let
• 1:15:56
  some of the choices they made in three because I'm just just not,
• 1:16:02
  you know. Yeah I think with some of the
• 1:16:06
  choices in three that happened that's pretty kind of sort of
• 1:16:10
  why and I feel like playing anymore because of those some of
• 1:16:14
  the stuff that happened I was like, for real.
• 1:16:17
  Yeah. And, you know, I remember I was
• 1:16:21
  on the form and I talked about it, and they were just like,
• 1:16:25
  man, what is wrong with you? And I'm like, what is wrong
• 1:16:27
  with? Y'all is yellow over here, just
• 1:16:30
  go along with it. Like this is okay.
• 1:16:31
  You know. Like this is just saying.
• 1:16:33
  Okay bye. Why are you know concert people?
• 1:16:40
  People should have consequences and there was no consequence for
• 1:16:43
  what happened. It was just like oh well they
• 1:16:45
  happen and just deal with it. I'm like and you turn I blame it
• 1:16:48
  on somebody else when there was your fault to begin with.
• 1:16:54
  Oh man, still yeah. But um but yeah I believe
• 1:16:59
  gearbox will you know hopefully he'll get it in the right
• 1:17:02
  direction and go back and because I mean they when they
• 1:17:05
  redid the the Duke Nukem game I liked it it just didn't sell
• 1:17:09
  well yeah but I liked it, you know and I like gearbox and you
• 1:17:14
  know and you know like their Community presence and all that.
• 1:17:18
  At. And so, hopefully, I'm Randy and
• 1:17:22
  the rest of them will do some good stuff with that.
• 1:17:25
  Hopefully, they'll get it back up and running like it should
• 1:17:29
  mean there were some cool things in that game you know, but not
• 1:17:37
  enough to keep me wanting to play and not enough to to
• 1:17:42
  recommend to anybody because it's you know, I mean, you know,
• 1:17:47
  I and I get, they were trying to, you know, change some stuff
• 1:17:49
  up. But I mean yeah, and I was too
• 1:17:54
  far. Gone from what we were normally
• 1:17:57
  used to exonerate. You know, you don't, I don't
• 1:17:59
  think you, you don't, you do that on a, on a, what is what
• 1:18:05
  I'm thinking about? Like a subgroup.
• 1:18:09
  They're like, - I like an offshoot game.
• 1:18:12
  Like, we're playing at this and we're going to see that this is
• 1:18:15
  one of I work out and if it does, we'll try like that
• 1:18:18
  instead of just cold turkey, starting from the ground up,
• 1:18:22
  doing it this way. I think they should have then
• 1:18:24
  you should have been kind of like one of that that Johnny Gat
• 1:18:27
  Goes to Hell type thing. We're just playing at this,
• 1:18:30
  we're not really doing this but, you know, we got a good, you
• 1:18:34
  know, get gat out of hell and we'll do any because that, that
• 1:18:37
  was fun. But it was definitely different.
• 1:18:40
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:18:41
  But, you know, yeah, it should have been like one.
• 1:18:45
  Those type thing, we're seeing this will work but we you know
• 1:18:50
  don't we all we all right. This is this not your Saints Row
• 1:18:54
  but you know, it's the Saints Row until we get sings wrote
• 1:18:58
  roll out. Yeah, you know, so yeah, I feel
• 1:19:03
  you but, so one of the kind of like last big games I want to
• 1:19:10
  touch on cuz yeah. Now, If if I did, if I did a
• 1:19:18
  category for number one game that I that, I admired from afar
• 1:19:24
  because I didn't play. But I watched a million dozens
• 1:19:28
  of hours of streams of it and if course that is Elden ring.
• 1:19:35
  Yeah. Yeah, I played it man.
• 1:19:37
  We tell you, I did not finish it because it's hard.
• 1:19:47
  It's so hard game. I'm not I'm not built for that
• 1:19:52
  game. Or any other Souls games?
• 1:19:57
  I can play Souls like but I just don't see how any of my friends
• 1:20:05
  and co-workers like like that. My, why would you want to put
• 1:20:10
  yourself through that, that mental anguish?
• 1:20:13
  You know, we already got to do that, you know, at work anyway
• 1:20:16
  with, you know, some of those, you know, things that we do or
• 1:20:18
  people that we, you know, we deal with from time to time and
• 1:20:23
  to freely choose to do such a thing on your time off, you
• 1:20:27
  know, like, why would you want To be the slowest thing out
• 1:20:35
  there, you know, everybody, you know, we had the slowest wind of
• 1:20:39
  all. If you just put all your stuff
• 1:20:41
  into this one move and I'll or this, throw this one, this one
• 1:20:44
  stat. I'm like, but that's that
• 1:20:46
  doesn't, but it's the stand that you need, because that's just
• 1:20:48
  at, that makes the difference. But what about all these other
• 1:20:51
  stats? They don't make anything.
• 1:20:52
  I'm like, wait, what we do doesn't make doesn't make any
• 1:20:55
  sense. Like, if you want to play this
• 1:20:57
  way, he has to go in this stat but like RPGs and normally you
• 1:21:02
  want to kind of spread your stats out, but not not Elden
• 1:21:06
  ring, not even the Souls game if you want to do it, right?
• 1:21:08
  It's got to be in this one stack and you got a beef at all the
• 1:21:11
  way up on my but wait, that doesn't make any sense and they
• 1:21:14
  like it, just I man and I played as much as I could.
• 1:21:20
  And I you know, and I have friends that Platinum it and oh
• 1:21:23
  my golly why are you? I you know, and I'm telling you
• 1:21:28
  man this this cat he's You know, he's good cause I'm always like,
• 1:21:33
  man, how are you doing? He's like, man.
• 1:21:35
  I just he just likes that stuff. I know he plied them.
• 1:21:38
  God of War Ragnarok. I know you planning up and
• 1:21:41
  holding Rings. Yeah, man.
• 1:21:42
  It was no biggie and I'm like, wait, what?
• 1:21:45
  Everything that you went through, you made it seem like
• 1:21:49
  it was easy. It's difficult for me.
• 1:21:51
  And I want to, I want to be strong enough to be on my own
• 1:21:55
  and not have to be, you know, but he's like he's got to get
• 1:21:58
  good, you suck. I don't like true.
• 1:22:01
  But how good do you have to beat?
• 1:22:04
  You know you know like if L during play like God of War
• 1:22:08
  probably would not have had a problem with it but the way it
• 1:22:13
  plays is like you have to be on your game all the time and it's
• 1:22:19
  not very forgiving. Yeah.
• 1:22:21
  And um but story-wise is very interesting story but I just
• 1:22:28
  applaud the The the care and the level of detail that they put
• 1:22:34
  into that world. Yeah, that map is gorgeous and
• 1:22:39
  beautiful and so many varying levels and the hidden hidden
• 1:22:44
  things, you know. And it almost with my reminds me
• 1:22:49
  of, of Great Moon. Forgetting this game and I
• 1:22:55
  played it recently. It was um, What was EA's flop
• 1:23:02
  back? Let me have the javelins.
• 1:23:05
  Hi, no, nothing. Oh, handsome, Anthem, Anthem,
• 1:23:13
  man, like, like, Anthems world food, you know.
• 1:23:21
  Like if you actually took the time to like roam around that
• 1:23:24
  map, oh my God. It was was like, wait.
• 1:23:27
  What? There's all these little gays
• 1:23:29
  and hidden little things that go off to all these other places, I
• 1:23:32
  mean he a dropped the ball on that game and if they ever
• 1:23:36
  decide to take it back to need to take, you know, look at you
• 1:23:41
  know, Sheldon ring, you know, because I mean it's you know
• 1:23:45
  that Yeah it's man yeah it's definitely those map.
• 1:23:53
  Those two maps reminded me of each other just because I was
• 1:23:56
  just like wow that's just a lot of a lot of detail, a lot of
• 1:23:58
  hidden things and I just wish EA would have treated a lot better
• 1:24:04
  than than what they did mad cuz I've gained a lot of promise and
• 1:24:08
  they just let it fall flat, but I know we're talking about, I
• 1:24:15
  can't. I only got so far and then I
• 1:24:20
  stopped because I can't, I can't do it.
• 1:24:22
  Oh yeah. No, no problem.
• 1:24:24
  I I'd ever understand cuz I can just because the, the only one
• 1:24:28
  of their games I have ever gotten through was blood-borne
• 1:24:33
  bad, bad back when they came out.
• 1:24:35
  But yeah. But yeah, ordering was
• 1:24:38
  definitely it is. It was like it was like the
• 1:24:43
  biggest and brightest star that you cannot ignore.
• 1:24:47
  Nor can I was like, yeah, even though I did not plant myself.
• 1:24:51
  Yeah, I watched several several hours of people playing it in
• 1:24:59
  jest, I was in awe, just watching it.
• 1:25:04
  So I could only imagine actually playing those levels going
• 1:25:08
  through those different environments and just like you
• 1:25:11
  said, the the discovery, the hidden nooks and crannies and
• 1:25:15
  stuff that, that that At Studio from software, are so good at
• 1:25:20
  what those games, it's just, yeah, the kind of like the
• 1:25:27
  atmosphere and just a mystery of like, okay, like what's going
• 1:25:32
  on? Like what, what unknown Oddity?
• 1:25:36
  Well, I encounter around the next Corner.
• 1:25:39
  Yeah, and and different stuff like that.
• 1:25:42
  So I say, yes, I was so dead. Definitely.
• 1:25:44
  Shout out to to Elder ring. You know, for for for everything
• 1:25:49
  that it did, they're real now before we wrap up and get out of
• 1:25:57
  here. Yeah, of course I want to just
• 1:26:05
  kind of shout out a couple of some games that are coming in
• 1:26:10
  2023, you know, that we might be excited for Or so I'll let you
• 1:26:19
  go first. I think, I think what we'll name
• 1:26:23
  Jordan, I'm just a couple, but, yes, we will.
• 1:26:27
  What's, what's one of the ones that you're kind of got a guy.
• 1:26:31
  How are your radar for next year, man?
• 1:26:34
  Number one on my radar is going to be Diablo for man who played
• 1:26:44
  the heck out of the Diablo 3. Yeah.
• 1:26:46
  Look It completely, at any time of the day, it's like, it's like
• 1:26:51
  Saturday morning, cartoons for me use, wake up.
• 1:26:53
  Get me a bowl of cereal and just go destroy stuff, man.
• 1:26:59
  I liked what they were talking about how you won't just be able
• 1:27:02
  to get to your torments anymore. Just by with the Press of a
• 1:27:05
  button, you got to earn your torment levels.
• 1:27:08
  So that was pretty neat. Everything looks the same,
• 1:27:12
  everything just looks a lot better.
• 1:27:14
  I know they were doing some tweaking and I got a pre-order.
• 1:27:16
  ER it so I can at least try the beta out.
• 1:27:20
  I think this over play earlier, something that.
• 1:27:25
  And then of course, I guess they just released the Spider-Man 2.
• 1:27:32
  Marvel Spiderman 2 is coming out in 2023.
• 1:27:37
  And, you know, and then this next couple of months, one piece
• 1:27:40
  this month next month. Yeah.
• 1:27:43
  And Hogwarts Legacy. You hard.
• 1:27:46
  His legacy. So yeah.
• 1:27:49
  So I originally had little to no interest in their game, kind of
• 1:27:56
  saw you. I saw your post on that.
• 1:27:58
  I was like you know, I was interested soon as I said
• 1:28:01
  Hogwarts I was like yeah I'm down man so lightly I and I've
• 1:28:07
  talked about this before but it's like, you know, I watched
• 1:28:09
  all the movies and stuff growing up, but I would never consider
• 1:28:12
  myself a super big fan of that series, whatever.
• 1:28:16
  I never got, super, super deep. I never read the books and all
• 1:28:19
  that stuff. Whatever.
• 1:28:21
  Yeah. But when I was watching that,
• 1:28:23
  that gameplay clip, like you mentioned that, that I had
• 1:28:26
  shared last week, whenever that was, and just seeing the factor
• 1:28:33
  of how beautiful that world was looking, and then him just
• 1:28:39
  summoning his broom and be like, I'm just gonna zip and fly
• 1:28:43
  around summoning down to ride on it.
• 1:28:45
  Take off to the sky. Yeah, and I was like Yeah, this
• 1:28:50
  this might be, this might be something I need to actually put
• 1:28:54
  my eyes on. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:28:57
  And you know, I was a read somewhere else because I
• 1:29:00
  mentioned it on your poster, they were talking about.
• 1:29:02
  You can actually torture people in there too and use the use of
• 1:29:05
  killing her. So, like, wait, what?
• 1:29:07
  You can actually like mess people up in this game?
• 1:29:09
  They, it seems like they give you free rein to do whatever
• 1:29:13
  kind of magic you want to do and learn whatever you want to
• 1:29:16
  learn. And I was like, wow, that's
• 1:29:19
  really Going to get the hard work experience of work
• 1:29:21
  experience manner except for the butterbeer.
• 1:29:23
  That's about it, man. I'm excited about that.
• 1:29:29
  Hopefully you know this year we'll have more than just two
• 1:29:33
  games to talk about, you know for game of the year for the
• 1:29:37
  next Video Game Awards. So yeah, why not another one I
• 1:29:43
  want to shout out to is a Star Wars.
• 1:29:49
  As did I Fallen Fallen Survivor that?
• 1:29:52
  Yeah, that Survivor. Yeah, because I freaking really,
• 1:29:58
  really enjoyed that first game following order and for me the
• 1:30:09
  the kind of like the main thing, like I hope that they kind of
• 1:30:11
  tweak as I like the, the map and kind of how you navigate the
• 1:30:17
  areas and stuff. Because because I know I was
• 1:30:19
  like A freshman car because if I remember correctly, there was no
• 1:30:23
  fast travel in that game. And so if you wanted to go find
• 1:30:29
  some those Collectibles or get to those light like he keeps
• 1:30:32
  hidden areas, I want you got new upgrades or whatever.
• 1:30:36
  Yeah fully Traverse. So I hope they took the feedback
• 1:30:42
  from the small stuff like that and just build upon because that
• 1:30:48
  like I said that first. Game had like a really solid
• 1:30:51
  foundation yeah and and stuff so so that's what I'm Different
• 1:30:56
  looking forward to and what one that I don't know.
• 1:31:01
  I it's not really like super high on my list but I'm just
• 1:31:05
  kind of just curious to see like what people think about it.
• 1:31:08
  Yeah and that is our for spoken. Oh yeah you play the demo.
• 1:31:12
  Yes. And that.
• 1:31:14
  That is why I'm kind of. Yeah, I know man.
• 1:31:18
  That was Was confusing. I'm like I need more training
• 1:31:21
  wheels because you know that how they want you to do everything
• 1:31:27
  it requires a lot of button presses to get what you need to
• 1:31:30
  get done. Yeah.
• 1:31:32
  Like I couldn't pull off the combos as easy as they made.
• 1:31:34
  It look in their personal gameplay and the show us.
• 1:31:39
  I'm like I'm not doing whatever they did what I saw before and
• 1:31:42
  I'm like I can't maybe just because it's the demo, maybe
• 1:31:46
  it'll be more fleshed out or be more creatures in the air.
• 1:31:49
  Area. But it didn't I didn't feel like
• 1:31:51
  I could flow like they were what they were doing in the gameplay
• 1:31:57
  trailers and stuff cuz I cuz cuz I saw so sorry, my kind of ebb
• 1:32:01
  and flow with that demo. Even just like his only play
• 1:32:05
  maybe like 30 minutes or so of it or whatever you know like the
• 1:32:10
  first impression I love the music.
• 1:32:13
  Okay. Yeah.
• 1:32:14
  Whatever. Beat that was there's a do it
• 1:32:16
  like the kind of like title screen.
• 1:32:17
  I was like, okay. Yeah, I first spoke and I got a
• 1:32:21
  little bit kind of like a little bit like I like a hip-hop, not
• 1:32:26
  judgment, but kind of, kind of, kind of like a little bit like
• 1:32:28
  hip-hop mixed with something else.
• 1:32:31
  Yeah. Bob so my okay.
• 1:32:33
  Alright, the music. All right, so let's let's start
• 1:32:36
  this thing. Yeah, and then yeah, when it
• 1:32:39
  was. Alright, so held R1 and you get
• 1:32:43
  here, this one will of stuff and, you know, L1 get this other
• 1:32:48
  will of other stuff. Stuff.
• 1:32:50
  Yeah, yeah, it was clunky. I do see potential and like
• 1:32:57
  maneuvering around the world and stuff.
• 1:32:59
  Because I do love the hey, hold this button and she just kinda
• 1:33:02
  just skating through the environments and stuff.
• 1:33:04
  Yeah. Yeah. 11 kind of like, like the
• 1:33:08
  kind of like me kind of like visual presentations that they
• 1:33:12
  have with like her grades. Whatever is that?
• 1:33:15
  Like she wears like different fingernail polish Yeah, I like
• 1:33:20
  that. I thought that was cool stuff
• 1:33:21
  and I'm like that is different. I've never seen a game do that
• 1:33:27
  and stuff so but but yeah, but yeah, but yeah, but yeah.
• 1:33:30
  Well, we'll see how that goes. But yeah, that that damn.
• 1:33:34
  I was not a good. Yeah, that's part of what a demo
• 1:33:37
  did. They were trying to get some
• 1:33:39
  feedback and I'm telling you now I was like, well my friends was
• 1:33:42
  like man. It's complicated and almost like
• 1:33:44
  how complicated can it being all the old?
• 1:33:47
  Yeah. It just it just took away from
• 1:33:50
  the battle because you're in them, you know, you had to do
• 1:33:52
  freya's magic, he had to go to someone else's the other magic
• 1:33:56
  and I'm like, doing this in a fight trying to pick the figure
• 1:34:00
  out fire or figure out the other man.
• 1:34:02
  Yes, no, no Mom. I wouldn't do all that,
• 1:34:08
  especially if it's all that off. All those types are all in mixed
• 1:34:12
  company. You have to constantly switch
• 1:34:14
  between the two. It might be a might have been a
• 1:34:17
  better VR game. Yes.
• 1:34:21
  Yeah. So where you might be able to
• 1:34:22
  use your only do that on the fly but on a controller on it.
• 1:34:27
  Oh no. Yeah and and speaking of you are
• 1:34:32
  that, that is what I want to ask you about two real quick. 4441
• 1:34:37
  do did you currently have any VR stuff?
• 1:34:40
  No man. I don't have the the the Oculus
• 1:34:44
  or I don't have the psvr man. I want to get it.
• 1:34:47
  I have a friend that has it. I'll call her.
• 1:34:49
  A couple of friends that have it but I haven't.
• 1:34:51
  Yeah, I haven't tried it out yet.
• 1:34:54
  Yeah, I saw. So I was just curious if or or
• 1:34:57
  like like we're on your wear on your radar if I can speak today
• 1:35:02
  is what is the psvr to for you, man.
• 1:35:09
  It'll be something I would definitely consider, right?
• 1:35:12
  But they keep on talking about this PlayStation 5 Pro, and I'm
• 1:35:16
  like, oh man, here we go. To spend more money, I would
• 1:35:27
  like to, I don't know, I don't know if I would be in the market
• 1:35:30
  for it. I mean, I have I don't know, I
• 1:35:37
  don't know from where I live from what I've seen on world
• 1:35:41
  that they have? I mean I don't nothing has
• 1:35:45
  really grabbed me. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:35:48
  I'm I'm kind of in the same boat where it's where I live.
• 1:35:52
  I have some friends that have four set up herself, whatever.
• 1:35:57
  Now now I was like, I was it where where the Varitek has
• 1:36:02
  gotten in recent years? Compared to what VR
• 1:36:06
  quote-unquote VR was many years ago.
• 1:36:10
  Whatever it is. Yeah, it is really dope because
• 1:36:13
  I got to play. Because what do they have?
• 1:36:16
  I think they had a, I think they have a Vive as so playing Beat
• 1:36:26
  saber and Shoot, what is a half-life?
• 1:36:32
  Alex. Okay, I'll play those two and be
• 1:36:39
  celebrated. It's just a fun time.
• 1:36:41
  Just with the music, just moving around and dodging us.
• 1:36:43
  This door here on like, yeah, but Half-Life Alex.
• 1:36:49
  That was 12 where the world and stuff was just so detailed tour.
• 1:36:56
  I was like, I was like, I was looking, I was like, yo, what in
• 1:36:59
  the world? And then they also had it to
• 1:37:03
  where, you know, the finger movements and stuff and like,
• 1:37:07
  yeah, actually having to, like reload your gun and stuff like
• 1:37:10
  that. It was, I was like, okay.
• 1:37:13
  So, okay. So, this is where the technology
• 1:37:14
  is now. It's crazy.
• 1:37:17
  But like, like like you like, I like what she says, I am.
• 1:37:21
  As far as I me myself, getting one maybe down the maybe when
• 1:37:28
  they start doing. Ready Player, One stuff.
• 1:37:30
  Maybe I'll think about doing that actually other track inside
• 1:37:33
  your home. The omnidirectional track, that
• 1:37:36
  way. You always add be cool if they
• 1:37:38
  start doing stuff like that, then I might think about it.
• 1:37:41
  Yeah, yeah. And and final kind of gaming
• 1:37:45
  thing. I want to ask you about that.
• 1:37:46
  That is kind of gaming related. It's not lame.
• 1:37:49
  But it is The Last of Us TV series formation.
• 1:37:55
  Be oh yeah I haven't seen it yet.
• 1:37:58
  I have not It's not out yet. It's coming in January.
• 1:38:02
  Okay. Yeah.
• 1:38:04
  Yeah. I was just curious if it was
• 1:38:07
  going to be on your radar to check out to man cuz I met you
• 1:38:13
  never man, back when we were at GameStop I didn't want to play
• 1:38:16
  that game at all. You kept talking about it and
• 1:38:19
  talking about it and then we went to that game stopover and
• 1:38:23
  was Ill. Yeah, welcome preview of that.
• 1:38:27
  And what's his name? Old store and man, you know, me
• 1:38:33
  I got on there and then I never, I never, are you got that to
• 1:38:38
  Chalo? I got that one, too.
• 1:38:40
  Let's start with the chocolate. But I got on there, man.
• 1:38:44
  I didn't want to. I didn't want to get off that
• 1:38:47
  game again, was so good. Yeah.
• 1:38:50
  And I was like, man, I went for my hater to.
• 1:38:53
  I love that game. Yeah.
• 1:38:54
  But I mean and I don't know. How many times can I relive Joel
• 1:39:01
  and Ellie story. Yeah.
• 1:39:03
  Right. You know, I as a you know, again
• 1:39:09
  as a parent I get why he did what he did.
• 1:39:11
  Yeah. Because I would have done the
• 1:39:12
  same thing. Yeah, two out.
• 1:39:18
  I mean, but you know, Troy Baker and what's-her-name always going
• 1:39:24
  to be led to me, really enjoyable me.
• 1:39:26
  Yeah, yeah, but you know, I haven't seen any of the previews
• 1:39:31
  for it. I just know that the Pedro I
• 1:39:33
  know paid Arose there. Yeah.
• 1:39:35
  He's been getting some big roles names, Mandalorian.
• 1:39:38
  And now he's doing Joel. I wonder if we're going to get
• 1:39:43
  to the play, his brother to, that'd be kind of interesting.
• 1:39:45
  And I wonder if they're going to start out like the like the game
• 1:39:49
  and let you know that Joel had a had a family of past family, or
• 1:39:56
  I will say that that that that will be in there.
• 1:40:00
  Okay, they put out the whole cast of they've cast.
• 1:40:04
  Daughter, all that stuff is brother.
• 1:40:07
  But there are also like a host of a bunch of other characters
• 1:40:10
  because they're also going to be going to be, like, touching off
• 1:40:14
  some stuff that kind of happened.
• 1:40:16
  Along the journey that the game didn't fully cover ya Goin.
• 1:40:19
  No Joel said, we did some stuff back in the day that we, I don't
• 1:40:23
  know how to do some stuff. Yeah.
• 1:40:26
  So sorry. I'm so, so, so so bad.
• 1:40:29
  They would touch on some stuff, Troy Baker, and And Ashley
• 1:40:36
  Johnson, that pays any attention at school.
• 1:40:44
  I think I know who Ashley is playing, but I don't want to
• 1:40:48
  spoil that for you. All right, I'll let you get that
• 1:40:50
  at that surprise. I like I said, it's not 100%
• 1:40:53
  confirmed, but I think we know who she is playing with in that
• 1:40:59
  world, okay? But but, but yeah, as for myself
• 1:41:05
  I am excited and interested in checking out.
• 1:41:12
  Checking out this series, they are also going to touch on some
• 1:41:16
  of the left behind and the DLC stuff that was Ellie's
• 1:41:21
  flashback, because they have also cast somebody to play.
• 1:41:24
  Riley, her friend that she had. Yeah, back in the day.
• 1:41:30
  Sorry, talk about the fireflies more are on there too or another
• 1:41:35
  you know, if they're going to even kind of hint at the
• 1:41:38
  possibility of Last of Us 2 type stuff happening with.
• 1:41:44
  I don't think that they're going to get into any last of us to
• 1:41:48
  stuff. I think probably just because I
• 1:41:52
  think like because it because I think this at least what they're
• 1:41:55
  starting off with. I think he's just going to be
• 1:41:56
  just like the usual HBO like ten episodes or so.
• 1:42:00
  Yeah, so yeah. So, so I think I think it's
• 1:42:02
  gonna be majority of that first game likes along with like, you
• 1:42:07
  know, something for my Ellie's past and stuff.
• 1:42:10
  If so they're going to. So that brother and a little the
• 1:42:14
  the brothers are they gonna? I wonder how long that they're
• 1:42:17
  going to paste this out of his is like the first, you know,
• 1:42:20
  three or five seasons going to be just one or they trying to
• 1:42:24
  get one season one of all of us all again because I mean that's
• 1:42:29
  I mean, because that's what they went through, that took some
• 1:42:34
  some years and some months, it wasn't like a short.
• 1:42:37
  Yeah, sure, no. Not for sure light like the the
• 1:42:42
  two brothers, Henry and Sam. Yeah they are and they're
• 1:42:47
  because they are looking at their, their characters cast and
• 1:42:50
  stuff is in here too. They do show scenes from winter
• 1:42:54
  so we do know the story does at least go that far so sorry it
• 1:43:00
  might cover a decent amount of ground.
• 1:43:04
  But yeah it would just be interested in see like how how
• 1:43:09
  how it is all. Paste.
• 1:43:10
  Because because the, the story, or the script, I should say, for
• 1:43:15
  this, it's kind of been like co-written by Neil druckmann who
• 1:43:20
  did Last of Us along. Yeah, I can't think of the guys
• 1:43:24
  name, but the guy who did the Shoot.
• 1:43:28
  It was a very big series about a thing that happened over shoot
