• 0:17
  Hello everybody. Welcome to the final.
• 0:20
  Well, the final y OS, X Y, OS, X extra time this is as talking
• 0:27
  nonsense. No Agenda.
• 0:30
  Nothing planned this one. If you thought the last ones are
• 0:33
  rambling with this one's risk, going to keep rambling
• 0:35
  constantly. Like I'm rambling.
• 0:36
  Now it started rambling. Its continuing rambling.
• 0:40
  No one cares. We don't care.
• 0:41
  Like what? We're going to get out of this.
• 0:43
  You're going to listen to someone else next month.
• 0:45
  So this is where we tell you the audience.
• 0:47
  What we really think of. No, it's not as lovely.
• 0:48
  Lovely to have you all here. I'm here.
• 0:51
  I'm Joe, we've also got Neal there.
• 0:53
  Hi, we've got over you there. Hey, we've got Dave.
• 0:57
  They're all right, shitlords. I had to steal that one up
• 1:01
  Kathy, it's a classic, it only Katie related the season to keep
• 1:05
  on. Using we did we never really had
• 1:08
  the catchphrases in re in that could have been that could have
• 1:10
  been the one. Speaking of the one that can't
• 1:13
  get that story out my head. Now, Dave, can you repeat that
• 1:16
  story to for the those listening?
• 1:20
  Okay, so I was in a company review.
• 1:22
  The other day, you have to review your things.
• 1:26
  I work for a fairly large corporation now.
• 1:29
  So in my review, I had to write something to describe how I'm
• 1:34
  going to unleash the power of 1, which is one of the new slogans
• 1:39
  that you've got to India to. So if My review.
• 1:42
  I wrote this. Unleash the Power of 1 in 2023,
• 1:49
  I fully intend to behead the other remaining Mortals and
• 1:53
  bring on the quickening. I will then know everything and
• 1:55
  be a valuable asset to this team.
• 2:06
  American accent as well really good.
• 2:09
  I can barely speak as it is. Don't ask me to do an accent,
• 2:13
  I'd love it. If they were brownie,
• 2:14
  Highlanders Midland, er only one quarter I'll be a long time ago.
• 2:30
  Similarly, like performative paperwork wise when I come back
• 2:34
  from the back to the UK. After a bit of a break, I
• 2:36
  couldn't work for a couple of weeks.
• 2:37
  So I had to get a claimed job, Seekers forget, and it's
• 2:41
  horrific, it's quite funny. When you've got a job set up,
• 2:43
  you know, you do this. Horrific other ones, you have to
• 2:45
  keep a diary and I realized no one cared.
• 2:49
  So you have to have done three job, search events.
• 2:54
  Yes. Claim your money.
• 2:56
  One of mine was had a really big think about jobs make a wish.
• 3:26
  I wish I was. Okay, though.
• 3:38
  How long did the big thing last time it was, it was it a cooker
• 3:43
  was along? Think it was a big thing.
• 3:45
  He's a big one. It's the size of the universe,
• 3:52
  but only last a couple minutes. I got tears on my actual
• 3:59
  glasses, that's not good. Oh, I've got another quick story
• 4:02
  for you. This is just wanted to slotted.
• 4:05
  My mate is member of midlife gamer and he is better for a
• 4:12
  Wheeler Dealer and he buys and sells lots of things.
• 4:15
  You can does charity, shops and cells and like advantage and
• 4:18
  things like that. And he hit on the absolute most
• 4:21
  genius tactic I've ever bought the other day, so he just got
• 4:23
  loads of old shit clothes and he buys like boot It's and things.
• 4:27
  If you see some and he puts as seen on fake taxi dance like so
• 4:41
  dirty bed. He sells it sells like all
• 4:45
  trainers. And he's got certain keywords
• 4:47
  that like, pervs go for a device supporting offer, just getting
• 4:52
  old trainers, and flogging them today.
• 4:53
  If he perverts, God bless you, I might give this a go.
• 4:57
  It seems like, why? I think I'm easy, but it seems
• 5:00
  easy, it doesn't, it just seems like there's no effort involved
• 5:03
  in this. Your target market over.
• 5:04
  As you know, that I meet me and money or easily apartheid
• 5:08
  subscription boxes pervy box box, that be the next thing and
• 5:12
  you just get a mystery box of something dirty every month just
• 5:17
  me just a second and he's a bit of cow dung or, you know, I saw
• 5:26
  it. I saw something to tick tock
• 5:28
  today that stick stuck with me that I watched it and I don't
• 5:32
  know. I'm I am quite vanilla.
• 5:36
  I've never heard of a gluing has anybody heard of a gluing
• 5:38
  before? No Matthew.
• 5:40
  What's it mean? Innocent innocent innocent.
• 5:44
  So I'm going to too much detail but basically this person was
• 5:48
  reading in could kind of like a like a shocking story out that
• 5:52
  they did. You know, they're like a party,
• 5:53
  they'd been to and they were kind of kind of Into a podcast
• 5:57
  into a podcast, in the podcast, was really the host was reading
• 5:59
  it out. And basically, long story short,
• 6:03
  somebody brought out of the bedroom freezer bag with what
• 6:08
  look like 6 or 7 inch sausages wrapped up inside it and under
• 6:15
  the further inspection. It was actually Length of poo
• 6:22
  wrapped, neatly in condoms but Frozen a glowing nice.
• 6:28
  Yeah. And apparently, apparently, the
• 6:30
  thing is is to poo into a condom freeze it and then use it as a
• 6:34
  dildo on yourself. Hey, Goldie.
• 6:36
  Yeah, I was two steps ahead of you.
• 6:38
  Yeah, well, I wasn't, I was no sense know where I was our first
• 6:42
  step to the fucking toilet. To be sick.
• 6:45
  I might be wrong here, but haven't you?
• 6:47
  And Darren talked about this on the podcast like Like freezing
• 6:51
  poodle children or something like that.
• 6:53
  I'm sure you spoke about this. I've no, I don't, if they have,
• 6:59
  I'd forgotten because it was fucking shocking that I had saw
• 7:02
  it today. They're pulling about appu,
• 7:05
  Tip-Top, anywhere near him from the end and stuff like that, you
• 7:15
  know? Clipper you get that, cut that
• 7:23
  cuts down the side of your mouth, you know, him from the
• 7:25
  plastic and then, yeah, okay, do nothing.
• 7:27
  Then he got a frozen turd in your mouth.
• 7:29
  Well, this is got offered some water but this is good.
• 7:31
  Yeah, I told you this is video games related podcast.
• 7:36
  This is, this was No Agenda. This is for do fuzzy logic.
• 7:38
  This is a Fuji agenda. Definitely is very fudgy, agenda
• 7:42
  will learn, will talk about videos in a bit.
• 7:45
  I got something to talk about. I learned so much over the past
• 7:47
  12 months editing, you lovely people.
• 7:50
  All I've thought about this, like, as me and Jay were talking
• 7:54
  like, 10 minutes ago, I was like, what have I learned about
• 7:56
  them? I'll tell you right now, I don't
• 7:58
  know any times. I have missed these on the edit.
• 8:00
  You lahood them yourselves listeners lived in the question
• 8:02
  joke. That's my impression.
• 8:09
  Dave, did it edit? Dave remembers that I thought it
• 8:13
  was him in my coffee. Obviously not now with Dave.
• 8:17
  Dave, too good for his own good. And I had no way of sort of
• 8:21
  telling him this because I know he loves his microphone so much.
• 8:24
  It does look really cool because it glows and everything.
• 8:26
  And Dave does that really good thing that I do.
• 8:28
  But he's got an elegant way of doing it.
• 8:29
  You can just tap is microphone and it will just mute it on the
• 8:32
  Hardware's as we worry about the software but it makes it digital
• 8:35
  pop every sign. But time you do it.
• 8:38
  And sometimes you'll do it, and you won't make a sound, but
• 8:41
  you're doing it out of courtesy. And I didn't have to worry
• 8:44
  about. I didn't have to be there.
• 8:46
  Yeah, don't be caught you. Yeah, so look, I think the only
• 8:51
  observations about Neil is that to be honest.
• 8:54
  He's got it is better than he thinks he is.
• 8:56
  I think he's listened to the least amount of content.
• 8:59
  We've actually put out this God, let me I've listened to probably
• 9:03
  four and a half minutes max. And that and that was it just
• 9:06
  because we'd be--we'd we joked about a particular joke and you
• 9:09
  reminded me the next day. So I went back and listened to
• 9:11
  it. No, there's no, yeah, no.
• 9:13
  Listen, no way, no way, no way you do yourself an injustice and
• 9:19
  right video game sure, talk a little bit about video games, a
• 9:23
  tiny bit and then we'll come back to nonsense.
• 9:25
  I've got one minute. Okay?
• 9:27
  He's alright, ever since now, it's like it's business as usual
• 9:30
  night. So what's everyone's business as
• 9:31
  usual? It's true.
• 9:33
  So we recording this. Is it?
• 9:35
  So we are kind of at we're out of our year of Shame, kind of 12
• 9:40
  months. And we are in a period where we
• 9:43
  had a. We've got about what four weeks
• 9:45
  of dying video games. Dave, four weeks of indeed
• 9:49
  filling his socks and boots and Pockets.
• 9:53
  I'm speaking to just literally and figuratively, does it feel
• 9:57
  good? Do you feel better?
• 9:58
  Do you feel? Liberated.
• 10:00
  I'll tell you how I feel, right? I was super duper excited to get
• 10:04
  that. Like I said, I've set this on
• 10:06
  the previous podcasts. All I had steam wishlist and I
• 10:09
  got it all in there in the basket.
• 10:12
  Ready to press. Go on January the 1st.
• 10:16
  So did you want to know what a port?
• 10:19
  Or we skipping the night before you do is it, could you tell me
• 10:22
  how much that basket was worth, not fat lot?
• 10:25
  Actually, because everything was fairly cheap because it was also
• 10:29
  a small indeed type titles and silly things for a Friday or
• 10:34
  silly things. For a, you know, a stream game.
• 10:37
  I think a few of them will say, we're like, we're like to wake
• 10:40
  me up Shilling. Yeah, look I know I'm old next
• 10:45
  week but I'm not in old. Were they still the most
• 10:49
  expensive game? I bought was Atari 50 because I
• 10:58
  bought a disk device version and that's 20 quid and that was
• 11:01
  instead of what is it like 40 quid, brand-new?
• 11:05
  Which is weird because I'm used to physics is the first time
• 11:09
  I've used a physical disk in my Xbox so I didn't know if it was
• 11:12
  going to work. Oh God.
• 11:13
  It sounds like a jet engine. I do not like using discs
• 11:17
  anymore. Yeah.
• 11:19
  So are we? I spend and it felt good and I'm
• 11:27
  not really played any of them. I do just nice to do and I've
• 11:30
  just gone back to thinking, I mean you are a shame really
• 11:33
  because I haven't really. Yeah.
• 11:37
  Same old stuff, old stuff. I have completed a few games,
• 11:40
  but we'll get on to that later. But yeah, we'll talk about
• 11:44
  bought a good few games. Good, have you, did you buy
• 11:47
  anything Joe straight off the bat, how you felt in the last
• 11:49
  kind of four weeks? And I've probably been gaming
• 11:52
  more the past four weeks, then, for any four-week period during
• 11:55
  the pocket, this didn't quite work because it would be my
• 11:59
  gift, but a mate and I bought each other the Pokemon games.
• 12:04
  Remember we talked about Going to get Arceus and couldn't play
• 12:07
  are kissing. Someone Violet and Scarlet.
• 12:09
  I've got Pokemon Violet. He's got a Pokemon Scarlet.
• 12:13
  He came around to my birthday two days after Christmas.
• 12:15
  So we bought it, we were supposed to switch.
• 12:18
  He was supposed to take one. I was taking the other and then
• 12:21
  go away except mine, didn't turn up the when I was giving him so
• 12:24
  he came with one. He didn't have want to take away
• 12:26
  with him so it was it was January for even started playing
• 12:29
  it anyway but it is so much fun. Put it on.
• 12:34
  I was expecting Kind of normal, it's meant to be.
• 12:38
  Alright, normal kind of Pokémon nonsense, it, but it's open
• 12:40
  world and it is kind of janky and they've got like some of the
• 12:45
  performance issues with it. Don't care.
• 12:47
  There's actual, like, Pokemon running around.
• 12:49
  You can see him, run up to him. You're riding a big Pokemon.
• 12:51
  Bike can catch him. You can play properly with the
• 12:56
  other person next to you in. Like, so we played a couple
• 12:59
  times where we've been running around together catching Pokémon
• 13:04
  on the phone with each other. What they have fixed, which is
• 13:07
  rubbish on sword and shield like he used to do like a Raid
• 13:10
  Battle, but before of you or four of you against the big
• 13:13
  Pokemon and you'd all take it in turns.
• 13:15
  So you do your move, get your watch out.
• 13:18
  You'll be waiting for the next person.
• 13:19
  The next me, the next one is doing that.
• 13:20
  Then the other, this little animations in between every
• 13:23
  move. It was really, really dull on
• 13:26
  this one. That's gone.
• 13:26
  No. Real time, you've got selected
• 13:29
  move into everything else but it's pretty close to real time
• 13:31
  in that everyone has their go against the big guy and then the
• 13:33
  big guys go against you. You do it so much.
• 13:35
  Faster. It's just so much more fun.
• 13:37
  It's much more rapid. You can move about.
• 13:41
  I've been really, really enjoying it.
• 13:42
  I've probably put 30 40 hours into it already.
• 13:47
  Wow I've been ill so is off. I feel for a bit and that got a
• 13:51
  lot of it done then but yeah just just playing through its
• 13:54
  great, great fun. There's no nice, it's not linear
• 13:58
  anymore and the old games are very do the thing.
• 14:00
  Do you think get your gym badges and all that?
• 14:02
  You got three different quests you can do.
• 14:05
  One of them is the old gym badge.
• 14:08
  One, one of them is helping someone with his dog, he's not
• 14:10
  very well. And the other one is dropping
• 14:13
  some kids from mucking around in the park.
• 14:15
  Which, to be honest, just sounds like, so if I was so fun, if you
• 14:18
  day life, Setting fire to the park, but I've got, I don't
• 14:24
  know, there's not many spoilers in here, but once you kind of
• 14:27
  finish it, when you would normally have just about
• 14:29
  finished again, there's like quite a bit more to do and
• 14:32
  there's like a second level of finishing it and then there's
• 14:34
  the big levels of catch them all, do all the other things,
• 14:37
  but it seems to have a really vibrant online community as
• 14:40
  well. It's not on the other.
• 14:42
  You can do something called a surprise trade, so you catch a
• 14:44
  Pokemon, you send it into the world and someone will get you a
• 14:47
  Pokemon. You're going to run back and on
• 14:49
  the old game you might be waiting three or four sometimes
• 14:51
  five. Five minutes to get yours back.
• 14:53
  Now, by the time you've exited the menus or send yours out into
• 14:56
  the world, evil will certainly got one back straightaway.
• 14:58
  It's just showing you how many people are playing it and how
• 15:00
  many people have taken advantage of that?
• 15:03
  Now it's been great to be really fun apart from the Sinister at
• 15:06
  the time, like talk David but there's nothing to the Sinister
• 15:09
  ditto event. So, I'd thrown one out into the
• 15:13
  world of Pokemon out into the world and back came a level 100,
• 15:18
  which is like the top level. You can go up to shiny which
• 15:21
  means it's about 1 in 1,000 to 1 in depending on what you've got.
• 15:24
  But rather about one in a thousand chance of getting one
• 15:27
  ditto appear this pokeballs in circles and its name was the
• 15:32
  name of a website. You go to the website, it's an
• 15:35
  invite to a Discord where there's a black market cloning
• 15:40
  and modding Pokémon. You can get sent to a, is this
• 15:44
  sort of dark underbelly of Pokemon giannini.
• 15:47
  Modification is really really weird.
• 15:51
  It's quite an odd little investigation gun some sort of
• 15:54
  list now aren't you? Yeah well the purchases well
• 15:57
  that it's not really a many other purchase.
• 15:59
  I bought Mario Kart live from Kyle on midlife gamer, which is
• 16:03
  where you have the actual car and you drive about drives
• 16:05
  around your house. Great fun, really good for your
• 16:09
  tortoise. Got involved with that. one
• 16:15
  little He's not as well out of it.
• 16:21
  The moment. I don't think he would enjoy it.
• 16:23
  I think we might get the Luigi well, as well can get Louis.
• 16:25
  Jordan, that's been great fun. The other thing that came out
• 16:28
  last week gold and I've been really enjoying, like really
• 16:31
  enjoying it modded the controls did the like the?
• 16:35
  There's something making structures Adam put up on the
• 16:38
  midlife gamer. It kind of makes it playable for
• 16:41
  you and I've quite a bit of fun with that actually, that's been
• 16:45
  great. I think they're most, I love
• 16:46
  still plenty of Duolingo thing, learning well, but David, my
• 16:49
  gaming purchases, that's the most.
• 16:51
  I've talked about games, I think, in a deposit is in unless
• 16:55
  you be a Stickley to, and now exactly shows enjoyed this.
• 17:00
  Yeah, we normally have to fucking pull this out of, you
• 17:04
  know, really good fun. Well done.
• 17:06
  Awesome. And during the next month, you,
• 17:10
  how do you feel house last last four weeks?
• 17:12
  Since I've been out the GIF, it officially other challenge has
• 17:15
  it made you feel? It's well, I guess it's never
• 17:18
  made no difference as it. But I did feel disappointed.
• 17:21
  The last time we spoke, because I didn't even wait till noon
• 17:24
  yet, like the I had the opportunity of doing jack bucks,
• 17:27
  as I sort of threatened. But when I sprung and okay, so
• 17:31
  long story short, my CD Keys would Redemption.
• 17:35
  It was, my would have been my third or fourth one since I
• 17:38
  started doing it instead of paying for it.
• 17:40
  Through many ways didn't work like as if you ever had that
• 17:44
  group bought a digital code has just said no I have Have but in
• 17:50
  the like an hour later I've tried, I really tried it and
• 17:53
  it's just, it's just take. It's like it says it's not been
• 17:55
  available and like it's this is already been used but then I've
• 17:58
  tried it like an hour later and it's worked.
• 18:00
  But I've never had never bought one that that's flat-out.
• 18:03
  Refused. Did you Dave are you two?
• 18:06
  So you yeah I had to I'd picture but I bought a bunch of like
• 18:11
  three months, Gold Xbox Live gold, things to top it up to a
• 18:15
  year and one of them was the wrong region.
• 18:19
  So it redeemed, but Microsoft wouldn't honor it because it was
• 18:22
  a wrong region and I had to have a massive battle with the CD
• 18:27
  keys and luckily, the guy you always speak into it, Microsoft
• 18:31
  about it. He just knew all about cd-keys,
• 18:33
  he won't. Look, I'll save you some time
• 18:35
  and money. I'll send you an e-mail, send
• 18:38
  him this little divot, and he just wrote me an email saying,
• 18:40
  why it doesn't work did. So he was awesome.
• 18:44
  He got that templated as it in sent items because always a me
• 18:48
  because the homeboy said, Something like happens.
• 18:50
  Now if I try on different device but made some, yeah, made on the
• 18:55
  on the app and stuff, made some made some allusion to cause I
• 18:58
  was using. Yes, I was using the PC app so
• 19:00
  may have not have not plumbed in on the Xbox itself but they
• 19:04
  eluded to like a contact Microsoft and I looked and
• 19:08
  thought, hang on a minute but it was too late.
• 19:11
  I had to act and do some at so as we know I subscribed the it's
• 19:16
  it 11 quit, maybe if you pay for it monthly for the The ultimate
• 19:20
  stuff on my phone. So it came out in my phone bill,
• 19:23
  and then I had to buy Jack box and it was just too easy because
• 19:26
  it was the default payment method.
• 19:27
  So, I bought jackbox also on my phone and then I thought I can't
• 19:31
  do this, I can't do this ahead of this call.
• 19:33
  I had to kind of check myself a little bit knowing that I was
• 19:35
  coming into the last, the last formal, publicized
• 19:41
  embarrassment. So I managed to get in there
• 19:44
  yesterday and I didn't know yet. So I turned off the Autumn
• 19:47
  because if the nude It renewed in it at the end of January so I
• 19:51
  painted twice. Oh oh so I thought like my don't
• 19:55
  don't be don't be doing this so that isn't that also renewals
• 19:58
  turned off but I'm I don't know what to do because I've kind of
• 20:02
  feel a little bit. I feel a little bit burnt by so
• 20:05
  you can have not fathered it up and I can't find the evil for.
• 20:08
  I can't find the email. What did you buy it?
• 20:10
  What is it? What did you buy?
• 20:13
  You buy on? Gosh was it PayPal or something
• 20:18
  like that? I don't know this girl, with,
• 20:21
  that's one way to do it. So there's once when Saudi
• 20:24
  refused to refund something to me, those got PayPal to do it
• 20:27
  and they could Claim about from Sony.
• 20:29
  Yeah. But didn't cast say that she had
• 20:31
  a problem with doing that. Last last episode, they blocked
• 20:35
  her for a while. CD keys can block you.
• 20:39
  What you going to do by expensive games elsewhere,
• 20:42
  ordered it, I don't buy games, all I want is, is a
• 20:45
  subscription. What is my best subscription
• 20:47
  solution? Do I just go to the next?
• 20:49
  Back and say I'll buy a year because it's better than
• 20:51
  piecemeal and struggling and making bad decisions.
• 20:55
  Matthew Matthew go to the midlife gamer Facebook page, go
• 21:00
  to the top where there is a pinned post by Mark Mueller.
• 21:04
  Learn that explains exactly how to do it.
• 21:08
  Like we did sake for a year alternative start doing
• 21:12
  Microsoft points, which indeed there is another post at the top
• 21:18
  of the midlife game. Back Facebook page, explaining
• 21:21
  what to do every day to get it for fork or beautiful.
• 21:35
  Exactly. The way that I do.
• 21:39
  I think so. Yes, purchases, CD Keys is great
• 21:43
  for, you know, that kind of thing.
• 21:45
  But any subscription, i-i've just Did the normal subscription
• 21:50
  straight out of my bank account? I think.
• 21:52
  Mine's like I like 10 pounds, 11 pounds a month, I know you can
• 21:56
  do the fucking point Dave. Now that involves students, they
• 21:59
  don't do it that way. This is an ideal time because
• 22:02
  Matt subscription, he hasn't got one at the moment, it's run out.
• 22:06
  So all he's got to do is load himself up on Xbox Live Gold.
• 22:10
  Not ultimate or anything by x amount of years and then you can
• 22:14
  do pay one pound and it converts those into Box, gang pass
• 22:20
  ultimate months, so you can basically get a year of it for
• 22:25
  very cheap indeed. Not 10 pound a month.
• 22:28
  I always thought you had to be like a new, they cook.
• 22:32
  They come on me. How to do my cable management
• 22:34
  way about it. I see, this is this lulling us
• 22:40
  into a false sense of security, this beautiful view of you and
• 22:43
  what's behind, you is underneath the desk like an ostrich Nest or
• 22:47
  something. Yeah.
• 22:51
  Yeah. Seriously though, you need to
• 22:52
  read those posts. It's super easy to do and it's
• 22:56
  the exact steps and links are on their to-do.
• 22:58
  It's cheap. All right.
• 23:00
  Well, other than that, I did play Jack box with with them
• 23:03
  guys. It was like a good that was
• 23:05
  adults and they were teenagers, it worked really well.
• 23:09
  And even even a little, the wife got into it who come and say
• 23:13
  it's stupid. But you can re-summon technology
• 23:15
  basis went like, oh, College play cards again.
• 23:17
  Semantics it's cars, it's easy. Even she got into it with the
• 23:20
  drawing and the lying to each other.
• 23:22
  It was, it was loads of fun and I really well.
• 23:27
  And in the new year, I started, I said a couple of times I did
• 23:30
  that lovely thing that we were like, of a, get up that early,
• 23:33
  get a bit early dead dogs. I'm get a coffee sit there and
• 23:36
  just like quietly, put the Xbox on and I was going through
• 23:45
  Matthew, you can turn that thing off.
• 23:48
  This is a game changer. Yeah.
• 23:51
  Yeah, you can, you can turn off the Xbox One.
• 23:53
  You can't. Turn off the frigging
• 23:55
  PlayStation one though, so it still goes, boom.
• 24:01
  I'll scroll through the game pass and and I think I said it
• 24:04
  before, but so, you know, so I play Persona 5 and I was only
• 24:07
  Besson game I played and it may be fall in love with the concept
• 24:10
  of persona. And I went down a deep Rabbit
• 24:11
  Hole, I love the music and see that they do a golden edition
• 24:15
  afterwards. It's like this, the balls deep
• 24:17
  like all the extended Stuff for like extra options and life
• 24:21
  Persona 5. Gold has been out for a while,
• 24:22
  but I don't, we play Persona 5 and it's like getting the latest
• 24:25
  and the only one I played, but they've got a Persona 4 Golden
• 24:29
  on there at the moment. So I picked that up and I've and
• 24:33
  it's like it's like my it's isn't, it was felt weird.
• 24:35
  I thought this game person to fire was so good.
• 24:37
  I'd love to go back and play the old ones, but I didn't know if I
• 24:40
  could or if it would translate. So well from likeness, but
• 24:44
  certain for works really well. It's a slow.
• 24:47
  It's a slow start comparing. To find which really like threw
• 24:50
  you into it, but I think having having knowledge of what Ibis
• 24:54
  only game is helps. I think, if Persona 4 was my
• 24:56
  first one and I went in blind, I'd be like you.
• 24:59
  All right, mate. But I think I'm hitting a little
• 25:02
  Persona Vibe and like the music. I'm recognizing the music.
• 25:05
  I'm recognizing the themes of what the Persona games that are
• 25:08
  like entail and what their core is.
• 25:12
  Yeah, I might I might I might be enjoying bit meal.
• 25:14
  It will Persona and it's taking me back down the the roots of
• 25:17
  going to watch. CH the the live music Love
• 25:21
  musicals but the big live performances, they do peep up, I
• 25:24
  think the court was called night, but said there so that
• 25:27
  there's so much fun to watch the musicals but with all the
• 25:30
  people, the crowds they have in those stadiums of absolutely
• 25:33
  insane or it's so good. I love it.
• 25:36
  Is it am I right in thinking this is basically Pokemon in
• 25:39
  school? Well, I don't know what Pokémon
• 25:41
  is. Yeah, it's only reaches, you
• 25:45
  throw, things up to enslave them for to you forever.
• 25:48
  Then you make them fight. No, no, no.
• 25:51
  That this is a lot more, I guess you at me, you could turn based
• 25:54
  combat with elemental Concepts and RPG that sounds quite
• 25:59
  Pokemon equipment. See, but it's also got the cake
• 26:01
  when it's also got like real crazy social interactions with
• 26:07
  main characters, your character itself, has your different
• 26:11
  facets of your Which extend and grow based on the lessons that
• 26:17
  you take at school and how well, you answer questions any tests
• 26:21
  after, who's that Pokémon? That's so that's less Pokemon E.
• 26:26
  Yeah and I think that's the bit that I like, is everything else.
• 26:29
  The only turn-based combat. I know which isn't on a computer
• 26:32
  and sort of like fighting fantasy stuff that something is
• 26:38
  Final Fantasy thing. And I've never really been a fan
• 26:40
  of fantasy guy, but that's the only kind of like console Lee
• 26:45
  turn-based combat. I really know.
• 26:48
  I got turned off this and like, Tim base, combats like that
• 26:52
  after Final Fantasy, which is why my ears pricked up when Joey
• 26:56
  was saying about, you know, the Pokémon you can see them walking
• 26:58
  about so it's not random battles, is it?
• 27:01
  Yeah. No, it's not legal.
• 27:02
  Yeah, that's, that's the one random battles is thing.
• 27:04
  I just cannot do. I hate them?
• 27:07
  Is it is that like when you walk around the world and in all of a
• 27:09
  sudden, he's like, did I did a bitch?
• 27:18
  Reason why I stopped playing Final Fantasy 7, back on the
• 27:20
  PlayStation 1, because you just couldn't fucking go anywhere
• 27:24
  because you're trying to get from one side of the map to the
• 27:26
  other and just regardless of how he walked around the map you
• 27:29
  just it just twirled with music and then you are doing the same
• 27:33
  battle with three plants. I might be wrong.
• 27:36
  Yeah, I think that the newer versions of it and like the
• 27:39
  updated re-releases, I'm pretty sure you can turn off, random
• 27:43
  battles these days. So might be worth revisiting.
• 27:46
  But I think I'm, I think I'm Pete.
• 27:48
  ETS Deed on them. Fortunately cooking, go back to
• 27:51
  random battles, thousand-yard stare turn-based are telling
• 27:56
  that although sir personas, I'm assuming they're all in game
• 28:00
  past, then I don't know if all of them are next to be going for
• 28:03
  20 ideas but for is on there at the moment for Golden and I but
• 28:08
  I think I have been seeing actually I think I may have seen
• 28:09
  three advertised on my phone somewhere.
• 28:11
  I thought it was a mobile thing. Also going past but yeah I'd
• 28:15
  coarsely I suggest you go 25 instead because fives fucking
• 28:18
  amazing. Yeah man.
• 28:21
  It mean if it's been crazy night as well.
• 28:23
  How about you then Neal? What are your thoughts?
• 28:27
  I really just I've enjoyed the freedom knowing that if I wanted
• 28:33
  to buy a game I can know if I wanted to buy DLC I can and
• 28:39
  knowing if I wanted to go you just just feels good.
• 28:42
  I've not spent that much money to be honest with you I've got a
• 28:44
  few games. I've played one or two of them,
• 28:49
  but I've been really busy with Work of its last but I've been
• 28:52
  on holiday for the first two weeks of January.
• 28:55
  So I only got back last week or so ago, so I'm not that much.
• 29:00
  Time to play the games I bought. When I onto January the first
• 29:03
  anyway, I bought probably about six and I've only played one of
• 29:06
  them, but I just feel generally just feel good, but I'm
• 29:09
  reflection. It has made me think about the
• 29:12
  last 12 months. It's made me feel about what
• 29:14
  I've learned as well. And I think a touched on this in
• 29:17
  the kind of him in the cast, blah, blah, blah, I think.
• 29:20
  Bo maybe stews. It's made me realize that games
• 29:25
  as a service. I-i'm romantic about what
• 29:30
  romanticize about what they are and what they can offer.
• 29:33
  But I need to get a grip of my the, the be-all and end-all and
• 29:38
  and how much time I put into them because they're just a
• 29:41
  massive fucking time sink. And it's made me realize that.
• 29:45
  So, the games that I've purposely the games that I've
• 29:47
  bought, since you can play games have been Been single player or
• 29:52
  kind of multiplayer kind of games that are just that kind of
• 29:54
  one-off 2030, our Shenanigans Shenanigans, rather than
• 29:58
  everything's got a fucking roadmap for, you know, a season
• 30:03
  pass or something like that for 30 days for two days, to kind of
• 30:06
  get you back in and paying that subscription, I have seen this.
• 30:09
  They're saying all this. I'm such a fucking hypocrite and
• 30:18
  of course, Damn, I wasn't going to as well.
• 30:23
  I was proper toss it into it about it.
• 30:25
  It's like I don't need it, it will be fine.
• 30:29
  Super expensive and I just like um, yeah.
• 30:32
  And then I got at a moment of weakness, and I saw it on CD
• 30:35
  Keys actually, so it kinda cheap and we're not
• 30:49
  Max. Money-saving sexpert will catch
• 30:56
  over 25 30 quid off the price. So I just thought up agreeing,
• 31:04
  you know, it I will, I will get some, some play out of it but
• 31:08
  now I've been, I've been feeling great.
• 31:09
  I've been missing speaking to you guys but I obviously that,
• 31:12
  you know, that's been, that's been one of the things that's
• 31:15
  kind of that sucked over the last couple weeks or so.
• 31:17
  But I just am looking forward to this year and just I wanted to
• 31:21
  kind of like start listening to lot more podcasts.
• 31:24
  I want to start like getting involved in bits and Bobs.
• 31:27
  Again, I've been quite not a recluse but I've been kind of on
• 31:30
  a bit of a backseat personal kind of back foot for a little
• 31:34
  while and that's one of the reasons why I kind of done this
• 31:36
  podcast as well as to kind of help me come out my shell a
• 31:39
  little bit more than I was previously.
• 31:40
  So, I'm looking forward to doing that this year.
• 31:43
  That's could be good. I hope if it's not, if it's a
• 31:46
  tragedy that I blame you all your socks, Cool.
• 31:52
  Talking about this year. Should we should we slice in a
• 31:56
  little bit of news about blooms almost like I've been doing it
• 32:02
  forever so we won't be the hosts might participate, probably but
• 32:10
  we might We're not gonna be the host and next year I'll be guys,
• 32:13
  so but we do know who will be now.
• 32:18
  They they they they they Good. They need a couple of days and
• 32:21
  had a couple of weeks to get to get themselves sorted.
• 32:23
  It's a big ask to take on a big challenges like this especially
• 32:26
  since the majority of them have not really been involved in
• 32:30
  podcast before so we got to cut him some slack.
• 32:34
  But should we should we should we slice somebody enjoys?
• 32:37
  Should we introduce one of them? Dave Jonna Dave's the fucking
• 32:41
  sound DJ. Come On Dave, bring one of them
• 32:42
  in. Hi.
• 32:44
  I'm so I Stevens you might remember me from the year of
• 32:46
  Shame. The guy mentioned in the midlife
• 32:48
  gamer podcast domestic section. And as The Idiot who had this
• 32:51
  idea to start with ten long years ago in those ten years.
• 32:54
  So much has changed. The world has changed gaming,
• 32:56
  has changed the shite, my wife watches on the TV has changed.
• 32:59
  Well, no, actually that bit hasn't changed at all.
• 33:03
  And I have has the mountain, the game sitting unplayed unloved on
• 33:06
  my pile of Shame, only the format as it's now more digital
• 33:09
  than it is physical. So now I'm back for the another
• 33:12
  12 month treatment to help eradicate the pain.
• 33:15
  My piles, bring me. So there you go.
• 33:17
  There you go. Sighs Stevens, 10 years, 10
• 33:19
  years on. But you know what, I had to come
• 33:21
  back and sort this out again. If anyone's going to work out
• 33:24
  how to manage subscription Services, it'll be the guy who
• 33:27
  went all spend the year, not buying games.
• 33:31
  Yeah. Oh God.
• 33:33
  I'm looking forward to seeing how he does to be honest with
• 33:36
  you because I I do every now and again, they do especially on
• 33:40
  Steam. I seem wish listing wisht wisht
• 33:42
  leting, why we should listing which lists?
• 33:46
  He didn't really quite a lot of games is loads of games and
• 33:54
  buying quite a lot of games, which could be quite interesting
• 33:56
  to see if you can actually rein that in a little bit because I
• 33:59
  don't know how you thought it personally.
• 34:00
  But Hey that's that's good, that's good.
• 34:03
  DZ first one, we'll check one or two more kind of updates in as
• 34:06
  we can to carry on recording. I shall we will will tease the
• 34:09
  motherfuckers out there with the with a bit more kind of news
• 34:14
  later. What's next?
• 34:15
  Then, what's next? What we're going to talk about,
• 34:17
  There's No Agenda. So I don't know.
• 34:18
  Other things, I never talk about what happened look, as you'll
• 34:25
  notice, I do have the legendary Rusty shirt on, for the last
• 34:29
  time ever today. Find you know what we should do?
• 34:32
  Dave there was not really an option.
• 34:35
  No, I think what we should do. Well, possibly actually, I think
• 34:37
  what we should do is potentially with we meet you up, if it's
• 34:39
  your for your birthday or whatever it may be.
• 34:41
  I think we all of us need to sign the front of that and then
• 34:44
  we get it framed. We get it pressed in glass or
• 34:47
  get it either you guys idea and then challenged action
• 34:51
  adventure. And then I'm buying it on
• 34:57
  installments. Put it on his clothes guard.
• 35:05
  You just pull it on eBay and he just put Auto bid.
• 35:08
  So, it's sold for 562 G. I was at, I was like nobody, but
• 35:13
  also by, but that mr. Blobby Kashima.
• 35:15
  And I woke up next morning when Living as a recluse last time.
• 35:25
  Yeah, yes, yes, we did. Yes, yeah, we did.
• 35:28
  Yeah. But he's, I shouldn't shouldn't
• 35:30
  the media. I did a quick search.
• 35:32
  We were sad. But today, just think I wouldn't
• 35:34
  it be amazing? I know and wasn't wishing him
• 35:35
  dead, but wouldn't it be an amazing twist?
• 35:39
  But in that article one of the links is David Jason predicts, a
• 35:44
  new world of teleportation. That's, that's the whole story
• 35:48
  that's suggested that maybe teleporter soon that my friend
• 35:53
  is clickbait. So, now, you don't want you to
• 35:55
  click on that. And then that's fucking, that's
• 35:57
  a look at site. Yeah, exactly.
• 36:00
  This could be a shame. Yeah.
• 36:03
  Real evidence theme their own DeVito.
• 36:06
  And Albert is the story of David Jason's teleportation
• 36:09
  experiments. He's will he become brand
• 36:12
  assassin? He's gonna get it.
• 36:17
  The fly. That's a scary proposition.
• 36:24
  I thought isn't it? Shit doesn't bear thinking about
• 36:27
  and so, so, you know, I think we should definitely get that
• 36:30
  signed, don't we can't forget that.
• 36:32
  That is something. I mean, you know, that has to
• 36:34
  happen. And so what couple of his
• 36:39
  invention, what we've been playing, I'm not going into
• 36:40
  details of what I've been playing, but I can come back
• 36:42
  loop back around to that then Dave.
• 36:43
  So what did you play then Dave over at last came, a couple of
• 36:47
  weeks or so? What did you buy, what have you
• 36:48
  been playing you've mentioned? Do do do Go run outside.
• 36:53
  Do now, if I Define about this last year, this would have been
• 36:55
  my game in the year last year. I'll be on a team of the year.
• 36:59
  It's dead simple. It's basically like a modern
• 37:02
  version of Donkey Kong it is, if it's as close to it like a 70s
• 37:06
  arcade machine platformer only release.
• 37:10
  Now it's fantastic. It's piss cheap.
• 37:12
  Everyone should go and boy, it is great for, nope.
• 37:16
  I bought a great shoot'em up called reynes.
• 37:18
  It's like an R type shooter against restrain its Dryness.
• 37:23
  Yeah, game, that is very much like Star Fox on the PC.
• 37:31
  It's called exercise Kodiak. I told you that I've been
• 37:34
  playing that Starfox mod on the, from the snares, ROM.
• 37:37
  I've just been totally into that.
• 37:39
  So this was a no-brainer, I finally bought trombone champ,
• 37:44
  so that's getting stream, completely, forgot about that,
• 37:48
  right? Is that on Steam?
• 37:50
  Yeah, it's a These were nearly all on sale by the way, over
• 37:55
  over the new year. So, great, I bought arcade
• 37:58
  Paradise so I can finally have my own arcade that my wife
• 38:02
  doesn't get annoyed with taking up space and quite expensive.
• 38:08
  I didn't expect it to be that expensive.
• 38:10
  It's like 11 pounds, which one trombone champ.
• 38:14
  Oh no it was like six. Wow, right.
• 38:17
  Yeah. I'm gonna wish little little
• 38:19
  Miss quickly. Okay, I also did giddens a
• 38:33
  solid, a finally been able to the pier arcade.
• 38:37
  He's I bought that salty worldy arcade and mechanical arcade
• 38:41
  game simulator. Now, Ross grieve actually bought
• 38:46
  this for me as a giftie, sent it, to me on Steam, but I had to
• 38:50
  refuse because James Already bought me a gift.
• 38:53
  So I did it. I did it.
• 38:54
  Bad on a sale there and bought phasma phobia.
• 39:01
  I don't know if you've heard of this.
• 39:02
  It's PC game. It's like a ghost hunter Hora
• 39:05
  con. Yes.
• 39:06
  It's like a ghost hunting Co-op experience, where you even have
• 39:09
  to talk to the ghosts and things.
• 39:12
  I mean, literally with your voice and things it looks ships.
• 39:15
  Carry, you can also play in VR which I would never do because
• 39:18
  that would be the end of know. I'd be just damn hot.
• 39:22
  Heart attack imminent. Oh, I'm talking about VR myself
• 39:27
  and a few of the other community members and Neil bought a game
• 39:32
  called Demi office, which is basically like an old-school
• 39:36
  Miniatures. Roll the Dice Dungeon Crawler
• 39:40
  type game but obviously the VR players look like they're
• 39:43
  reaching over and moving the figures and things like that.
• 39:46
  It looks brilliant. So I'm looking forward to a
• 39:47
  night of that when we need to get that sort of.
• 39:50
  Dave can we give me a break? Afterward after the recording
• 39:53
  because I want to get that sword and get a regular kind of gaming
• 39:57
  with that. It's on now though, obviously
• 40:00
  those are all the ones on the steam list, so the next ones are
• 40:03
  the Xbox games now. I haven't paid a penny for any
• 40:06
  of these apart from Atari 50, which are bought because I just
• 40:11
  used my massive like 250 quid worth of Ms. Vouchers from the
• 40:17
  rewards last year. This is what you should do.
• 40:20
  The math. You So I bought the new tales of
• 40:24
  the Borderlands game because I absolutely adored the first one,
• 40:29
  I bought Tiny Tina's, Wonder lands, which is the lightest.
• 40:32
  You know, first person shooter borderlines, going because we
• 40:35
  play all of those. I bought Destiny to which Queen
• 40:41
  have you played you played any of it yet?
• 40:43
  No, no, I haven't had time to get onto, I'll tell, I'll
• 40:46
  explain why in a bit, but I do know, it's like I had to get
• 40:49
  that. Also, the One before that is
• 40:53
  free on PSN this month. Yeah like Beyond light.
• 40:57
  Yeah I think it is. Yeah Charlie. 50 likes it.
• 41:00
  No Atari 50. I want to talk about because
• 41:03
  this is how you do a collection. It's the worst thing about this
• 41:09
  game is the games and if they are borderline unplayable I
• 41:14
  would say 90% of them because this this R will be told like
• 41:18
  Atari 2600 hundred games and things like that they are bad.
• 41:22
  At but it's what I was bought up on.
• 41:24
  So it's been just memory after memory after memory and you go
• 41:28
  through it. Like a museum you literally go
• 41:30
  step-by-step. It's like a web kind of thing
• 41:33
  you open up and you go there and follow pipe trials and there's
• 41:36
  all videos of the developers and Atari staff talking about these
• 41:41
  things. It's like going to a museum or
• 41:44
  watching the best documentary ever but you can just jump in
• 41:47
  and start playing what they're talking about.
• 41:50
  There's some great stuff on there like Tempest.
• 41:53
  Matt like the Jaguar stuff. There's there's Tempest and
• 41:57
  things like that. It's the absolute Benchmark.
• 42:01
  No other Collection comes close to it in my opinion.
• 42:03
  But like I said, it's not about the games.
• 42:06
  Don't go into this thinking. You're going to play Top Games
• 42:09
  because they are pants most of butter in it just excellent.
• 42:13
  Just I've loved every second of it.
• 42:16
  I think the but that that was the quote of the box is the
• 42:19
  worst thing about this game is the games.
• 42:21
  Yeah I think that right there at work and things like that it's
• 42:31
  just nostalgic overdose right. I also bought Ghostbusters
• 42:36
  Spirits Unleashed, this is one for a Friday night it's like 4
• 42:41
  verses 1. I symmetrical game where you get
• 42:44
  for Ghostbusters and one person places the ghost the ghost I
• 42:47
  said try and haunt the entire building and the Ghostbusters
• 42:50
  obviously after Buster. It's good for, and we've only
• 42:54
  played a little bit of that, really, but it is great fun.
• 42:58
  And I succumbed, I was really missing it, and I bought FIFA
• 43:01
  like a massive 12 FIFA is on the subscription, 22 is, but I
• 43:10
  wanted the new plate. The, you know, the current
• 43:12
  squads does play differently it and it is good.
• 43:16
  I've very much enjoyed it, I'll tell you something as well.
• 43:21
  This is so sad when I can't be asked to play something.
• 43:24
  I quite often set FIFA sort of fantasy matches or pull it.
• 43:28
  I just let it pick a couple of teens.
• 43:31
  Let it play itself and that we've done this on a couple of
• 43:36
  zooms and we've had a, we've had a little bet over who's gonna
• 43:39
  win, big, quite good. With this vid.
• 43:43
  No matches. Like, you know, where we do the
• 43:45
  be assumed. Some things last one I bought,
• 43:49
  is I finally bought, Mario Strikers battle League, which is
• 43:54
  the update to Barrios smash football.
• 43:57
  I'm not I'm still not played it. So obviously I was dying to get
• 44:02
  right onto stuff. I actually played I'll do these
• 44:05
  really quick, right? Hello neighbor to.
• 44:08
  You are someone who's trying to go into a house.
• 44:12
  There is a big p, do neighbor and he tries to get and it's
• 44:15
  quite Fair. It's good.
• 44:17
  Finish that completed Somerville Somerville is like Inside but
• 44:23
  it's not as good and the controls are janky.
• 44:26
  It's okay. But don't know, don't inside.
• 44:29
  Yeah, I'm not going to spoil it. Don't spoil it because I've got
• 44:32
  three quarters of the way through that.
• 44:34
  I think it's only like a five or six hour gaming, it five hours
• 44:36
  of some. Yeah, I smashed through I got I
• 44:40
  think I'd have done about three hours worth and I'm and I know
• 44:43
  looking at the chapters because you can go back and replay
• 44:45
  particular chapters. I know, I know that I'm
• 44:48
  definitely over halfway towards 3/4 and I am Doing it.
• 44:53
  But I never played inside. I only played that the first
• 44:57
  level of that, so I'm that we everybody which everybody Raves
• 45:00
  about and says, you know, you got to wait for the twist.
• 45:03
  Apparently is a Twist at this one as well.
• 45:05
  Joe played it a few months ago he didn't get as into it.
• 45:09
  As I did that. I would decide.
• 45:11
  That was one of my. Well, I did say it was Game of
• 45:14
  the Year, the year. It came out.
• 45:15
  I just I was in that game. I loved it.
• 45:18
  Anyway, two more, these are altar crap and this.
• 45:21
  Is just for game of points for me because I was having a bit of
• 45:25
  a challenge with Ross. We're neck and neck or the
• 45:28
  leaderboard one was called Memoir blue, which is basically
• 45:34
  a really wearing key visual novel type thing, which was
• 45:39
  awful and to get the remaining points.
• 45:42
  I went on to GameFAQs and the highlight of the game is reading
• 45:47
  the GameFAQs walkthrough for this game because it's perfectly
• 45:50
  normal until it gets. Near the end where the person
• 45:53
  righted it, basically. As a mental breakdown, I'll
• 46:02
  leave it. I'll leave it for you to
• 46:03
  discover your side, but I need to know various, it just goes
• 46:08
  completely off the rails. And another one was space
• 46:13
  science investigations. It's basically about living in
• 46:17
  as it's a proper NASA thing. It's like a sort of
• 46:21
  Occasionally, but being in the, the International Space Center
• 46:25
  in, it's all right. If you like spy stuff, you might
• 46:28
  like it's easy game of points. So onto dabbled in progress now.
• 46:32
  Well, I haven't played a lot of this other games is because a
• 46:37
  certain game came out on Game, Pass the other week and that's
• 46:41
  Monster Hunter rise, and it's devouring my life and I think I
• 46:44
  need an intervention. This isn't, this isn't your
• 46:50
  first flute with the monster under Is it Dave?
• 46:52
  Oh no cause it's not I'm somewhat of a I put like 9:00
• 46:56
  into monster onto World on the PS4.
• 47:00
  And I did have this on the switch.
• 47:04
  I still haven't bought the Sun Break expansion, but the
• 47:09
  performance on this is just so much better.
• 47:13
  It's like playing another game. It's like the next-gen version.
• 47:16
  It's like everything 60fps and it's smooth as silk and it's
• 47:20
  just brilliant. I just love it.
• 47:21
  I can't stop playing it. So this is this another kind of
• 47:24
  a golden ring. You playing a couple hours
• 47:26
  before you start work in the morning kind of prefer.
• 47:28
  Yeah, this is beautiful. It's even easier to do that
• 47:32
  because she's just like two parts to the game.
• 47:34
  You've got like the village crests which are Solo only no
• 47:38
  multiplayer or you can go to like, it's basically a room in
• 47:42
  the town and it's the Gathering hoping you can just join other
• 47:45
  people. You can just put yourself in
• 47:47
  from random or you can make a Lobby and stay with the same
• 47:50
  people. So You just basically pick the
• 47:53
  thing you want to do search for someone and you just get jumped
• 47:57
  into their hunt for exactly what you want to do and you just
• 48:00
  playing with other people and it's just loads more fun and it
• 48:03
  this one's quite a bit more. Like, Anna me?
• 48:06
  Like I don't like anime and it's not like cartoony or anything,
• 48:10
  but there's just whizzed by, and effects and stuff going on
• 48:12
  everywhere and all the, the little Just upgrade.
• 48:18
  So it's just fantastic. I can't stop playing it.
• 48:20
  Honestly, I'm gonna have to just delete it, I think because very
• 48:23
  get no work done again, ever. So can you is it possible for
• 48:27
  you to give us by the end of the podcast?
• 48:28
  How many about you? Yeah.
• 48:29
  When did you start playing it? And how many hours ago?
• 48:32
  I'd say, I money on a bit. I'm on about 30 hours, and I
• 48:35
  probably started playing it like that two weeks ago, which is not
• 48:39
  that bad. But I've been clean all the
• 48:40
  other stuff as well. I thought it was a that you
• 48:43
  played 30 hours and you started this morning, but that's all
• 48:46
  Ability of a quick look. I'll tell you exactly how much
• 48:51
  it's probably more than that. There are no, I lied.
• 48:54
  I've been playing for two days. 14 hours.
• 48:59
  Okay. It is almost 30 hours.
• 49:03
  Almost three days. Yeah, one day.
• 49:16
  It's fun for nailing Ross. I wanted to try something out,
• 49:21
  so I do, yes, yes, gone, you can talk about until everybody.
• 49:25
  Okay, so it was last Friday. Wasn't it was hard to do.
• 49:30
  You had been is my first finding light gaming for a little while.
• 49:33
  And Dave was like, right? Come on, come on line.
• 49:36
  Want to try something out? I've got an experiment was going
• 49:39
  to like, bit dubious but so basically got me to install.
• 49:46
  As program on my computer which I can't remember the name of
• 49:50
  also called a dude, can we say it out loud or should be
• 49:53
  deleted? It's a little install.
• 49:55
  Anyway, yes. A tiny install.
• 49:57
  And I'm one of these people that's quite nervous about stuff
• 50:00
  like that, because I'm just an absolute asshole, that will get
• 50:03
  viruses, and Trojans and stuff. But I trust Dave, you
• 50:06
  implicitly. So installed it, Dave streaming
• 50:10
  is his screen. And basically, in a nutshell, we
• 50:15
  started playing Mario Kart, which version America will be
• 50:19
  playing, but we would basically streaming it.
• 50:23
  We were playing it. Me and Ross was streaming our
• 50:26
  PCS to Davies PC and then Dave's PC was processing the game yet.
• 50:32
  So basically what happened was always.
• 50:35
  So I, you know, I'm messing about with emulation all the
• 50:39
  time. So I've now got a way that
• 50:41
  basically, I can stream, whatever I'm playing on my
• 50:46
  machine. I mean, like, you'll see on your
• 50:49
  screen, but your controls work so you can actually play it.
• 50:54
  So, that's right. This is, you know, this is a
• 50:57
  games that I own fully. I got switch emulate, Nintendo
• 51:05
  switch emulation working, which works better than an actual
• 51:08
  switch because you can 4K and it's 60 FPS.
• 51:14
  So I had the other guys Playing multiplayer.
• 51:21
  Smash Brothers. That's right.
• 51:24
  Not magic. Its hearty.
• 51:27
  And so on from that sounds, all I was still on my feet.
• 51:30
  Yeah, it's magic. The good thing about it is.
• 51:33
  Well, Dojo is a participant as being on the other side and
• 51:35
  having like my control of register on.
• 51:38
  Dave's PC. There wasn't hardly any lag
• 51:42
  whatsoever like like stadion take.
• 51:45
  Take heed kind of thing. It was it was that it was it was
• 51:48
  it was almost almost seamless. But definitely, because you
• 51:52
  could definitely play we played for like a good hour or two.
• 51:54
  Did we were very exciting things and get it was great.
• 51:58
  It was really good. It was, I was surprised because,
• 52:01
  you know, I'm usually, you know, the kind of the streaming kind
• 52:05
  of sphere are dubious about that you can just get kind of fobbed
• 52:08
  off and end up dying consoling. But I I never won a race, but I
• 52:12
  know I never even reviewing the same room.
• 52:14
  I won't win a race, did I? But he's really good.
• 52:16
  Did you confess that you had never played a Mario Kart
• 52:20
  before? Now?
• 52:21
  Never have unbelievable. Even my mom half.
• 52:27
  She's 78. Anyway, so that's that's me.
• 52:32
  That's all games have done. Really sure this more but those
• 52:35
  are the important ones. Hmm.
• 52:39
  All right. You then now.
• 52:41
  Okay, so the games I bought when it came to January 1st.
• 52:46
  First was let me, let me get my, let me, let me cheat a little
• 52:49
  bit because my memory is terrible.
• 52:52
  So I bought a couple things that were on my wish list as well,
• 52:55
  actually. Dave and I just kind of thing,
• 52:57
  obviously you mentioned that that they can of that di Meo
• 53:03
  that we've purchased together. I also bought the Greg Gardens
• 53:06
  is game, the peer-on-peer arcade as well.
• 53:09
  I also bought the one that the game that I mentioned a couple
• 53:12
  of times while we're on the podcast that I was kind of like
• 53:15
  my temptation. Peace, which was dying like to.
• 53:19
  I bought that as well. That was was going for quite
• 53:23
  cheap and I just thought, right? Yes.
• 53:26
  Getting it. That sounds like, like, if
• 53:28
  something not something that I've actually kind of have not
• 53:31
  turned it on yet. I've not kind of actually played
• 53:33
  any of it yet whatsoever but it's there and I got it for
• 53:36
  quite a decent prices. Well, I'm really looking for
• 53:39
  what you carry on. Is that PC or Xbox PC?
• 53:45
  You've got a copy A of that, that I bought in, what was it?
• 53:48
  21, I bought it in 21, the game didn't come out till twenty two,
• 53:54
  so I couldn't play it. So now I had met, I didn't know
• 53:59
  that. Well, I didn't know that at the
• 54:00
  time, but I forgot that I would have got it on Xbox.
• 54:02
  Otherwise makes I would have, definitely would have played it
• 54:04
  through with this. I'm looking forward to it.
• 54:07
  I'm actually looking forward to playing that I picked up vampire
• 54:10
  survivors because everybody was raving about it.
• 54:13
  Yes, save this is this, this is give you've got obviously played
• 54:16
  this Haven't you? Yeah, yeah.
• 54:18
  Yeah. So played that.
• 54:20
  I quite like it. I'm I've never really branched
• 54:23
  out fully into the whole kind of you know Divergent repeat you
• 54:28
  know, build up your you generational kind of power kind
• 54:31
  of play can a game before but I love how simple it is.
• 54:35
  It's fantastic. Why it's okay, gets its hooks
• 54:38
  into you anneal it. Well I think he's I played I've
• 54:42
  been playing matches that lasts around about between like 1315,
• 54:47
  maybe I'll just under 20 minutes.
• 54:48
  I've not done a like, you know the kind of the big ones yet,
• 54:51
  they've not got a full screen of shit, chasing you.
• 54:54
  I've not had any of those yet, but it is it.
• 54:57
  I love the fact that it's a pickup and pick up and drop
• 55:00
  whenever whenever you've got 10 minutes in between something,
• 55:03
  when you waiting for a meeting to start, or what have you that,
• 55:05
  that's what I've been kind of enjoying it.
• 55:07
  I'll tell me that. I'm really glad that the the
• 55:09
  games do get longer Initially it's like your goals to survive,
• 55:15
  half an hour, he's that's the big goal and then you realize
• 55:18
  that there's more and then you do the more and you realize
• 55:20
  there's more and then you do that more and so Ross's.
• 55:27
  Gee that's are asking about that easy experts crikey.
• 55:31
  Okay? Well that's okay that proves
• 55:34
  that you do is no work at work. Doesn't it?
• 55:36
  If he's if he's able to do that and the other games that I
• 55:40
  picked up, I picked up. It was a game that when he came
• 55:43
  out this year, I had my eye on and kind of was bit close to had
• 55:47
  little bit kinda strange reviews when it came out.
• 55:49
  Not obvious. Lot of people kind of wasn't
• 55:51
  what people were expecting, but I've played about five or six
• 55:54
  hours this week, I picked up that Gotham Knights and played a
• 55:59
  little bit of that. The last two three nights.
• 56:02
  I quite like it. I quite like it.
• 56:04
  It's not a narc and game so don't treat it.
• 56:07
  Like one is a bit weird in places.
• 56:11
  It basically the basically promises' it is it is about Man
• 56:15
  game. You play remember a member that
• 56:17
  you can you can't swap out on the fly but there is a central
• 56:21
  Hub. The bill for you, can you can go
• 56:23
  back in there in a day-night cycle and and then become
• 56:26
  another, one of the characters and take another character out.
• 56:28
  They have got slightly different fighting styles, different
• 56:31
  weapons, they use and different kind of kind of like power power
• 56:37
  plays. They can do and what have you,
• 56:39
  but you basically play is one of the kind of the bat family.
• 56:41
  So Hoods Batgirl, Robin or Nightwing, you are solving
• 56:47
  crimes in Gotham. There is a, obviously, a much
• 56:50
  larger story arc to go for, but it's very, it's got quite a lot
• 56:53
  of RPG elements to it as well as there's a lot of like weapon
• 56:57
  crafting, it feels like him. I know you've played a lot of
• 57:01
  this Dave so you'll know exactly what I mean.
• 57:03
  It feels and there's probably a name for it and it's I don't
• 57:06
  think the game that I'm about to mention to compete in.
• 57:08
  Comparison was the first game that ever did this.
• 57:11
  By any means. But it feels a lot like Avengers
• 57:14
  The Avengers game. When you can't, like, you know,
• 57:17
  where you got. Like there's like three parts of
• 57:19
  their their kit that you can upgrade to craft into like
• 57:23
  there. There's somebody there that
• 57:25
  makes. Yeah, so you can do the, you can
• 57:28
  do the, the suit, you can do the the melee attack and you can do
• 57:31
  the kind of distance attack kind of update, and you can kind of
• 57:36
  do that. And that's quite good in that it
• 57:38
  is good. It has crashed on me twice in
• 57:41
  one session. And that was a bit shit crashed
• 57:44
  straight back to kind of the steam screen so little bit crap
• 57:48
  but I'm only kind of level 6 if they suddenly see.
• 57:52
  And is it go up? It is PC.
• 57:56
  It is Co-op. You can you can set it to come
• 57:59
  into so I can join you can join anybody's game, right?
• 58:03
  And you basically, whether host that game that, I think the way
• 58:05
  that it is, is that, excuse me, it with a host, it is you
• 58:09
  followed your do this story missions.
• 58:11
  You'll do the Their crimes and what have you?
• 58:13
  But you'll get the second person does gain the experience, but
• 58:16
  it's if you would, excuse me, if you would, then go back into
• 58:20
  your game, you you start your game kind of bucket that chapter
• 58:24
  that you were in. Excuse me, he's good.
• 58:28
  He's good, he's not great by any means.
• 58:30
  And I think it could because I'm very much at the beginning of
• 58:32
  it. There's a lot of mechanics that
• 58:35
  have yet to be explained to me, I think the worst bit of it
• 58:38
  though. For me is The traversal around
• 58:42
  the city isn't as fluid as Arkham games.
• 58:47
  Even the Arkham. The last Arkham game Arkham
• 58:50
  Knight or whether it was with the Batmobile you've got to like
• 58:53
  the you can use the Bat Bike in this, you can call it a little
• 58:56
  like appear next to you like and it just feels a bit shit.
• 59:02
  It's not you don't feel like you're going, its speed.
• 59:04
  You don't feel like you've got any kind of momentum.
• 59:06
  It's a bit rubbish, but hey, ho. So I've been playing a little
• 59:09
  bit of that and I will continue to play it.
• 59:11
  And then, if there's anybody wants to come and join in my
• 59:13
  coops on the PC, on the steam version, you welcome to, I think
• 59:18
  the only other. Yeah, it is.
• 59:20
  I mean, you've give you get a cheap.
• 59:21
  If you can get it from under 25, I'd say, if you can get it under
• 59:24
  25 quid, it's worth it. I think I paid 30 to something
• 59:28
  like that via VIA our sponsor. And then the other game that I
• 59:34
  bought because I just don't know why.
• 59:36
  But, you know, like, algorithms on like YouTube and ticked up
• 59:40
  when they get you, they get Don't they if you watch a video
• 59:43
  to the end and then just that they just fucking swamp you Red
• 59:47
  Dead Redemption to seems to be following me around for the last
• 59:50
  like, six weeks, right? Ace is following me everywhere I
• 59:54
  go. And so I thought, right?
• 59:57
  I've played a, I played a lot of the on bar sale lot.
• 1:00:00
  I played some of the online a year or so ago, with a couple of
• 1:00:03
  the middle. I've gained a people and I, you
• 1:00:05
  know what, I thought, right? I'm just gonna drop on the main
• 1:00:07
  game on my PC. I think I paid something like 15
• 1:00:11
  quid. Or something like that.
• 1:00:12
  So I've got that in the bank. That's the next.
• 1:00:14
  Big kind of open world game that I'm going to get into and and
• 1:00:19
  I'm going to look forward to every bit of it.
• 1:00:20
  The main game I've been playing and let me just jump on it to
• 1:00:24
  tell you how a lot much I've been playing of it.
• 1:00:28
  I've played up a goddamn probably I won't say too much
• 1:00:32
  because it's fantastic. I've dropped games like Mass
• 1:00:36
  Effect because I should go back to him, but The Witcher 3 has
• 1:00:39
  got its hooks in me too. The next general day.
• 1:00:42
  Wow, and I've played, I've played a lot of it.
• 1:00:45
  I've probably I've played 50 hours in the last three or four
• 1:00:50
  weeks but bear in mind I've been on holiday for to week 2 of
• 1:00:53
  those weeks. So if you Lyin and I'm basically
• 1:00:58
  I'd wanting to God. I wanted to go good old games
• 1:01:01
  with the data because here because this is the second time
• 1:01:03
  I've played it, I played it through when I bought it.
• 1:01:05
  Originally on Xbox way back when and I knew I played a lot of it
• 1:01:10
  but I don't really remember. Ember a lot.
• 1:01:12
  I played a lot of it when I was drinking and kind of on my own,
• 1:01:15
  you know, kind of not remembering where I am and
• 1:01:18
  things like that, but I played like 120 hours of it, on the
• 1:01:21
  Xbox One. And I've done 50, art, 50-yard
• 1:01:23
  hours already, but because I'm not drinking, and I'm
• 1:01:27
  remembering what I'm doing. I'm enjoying it a lot more and
• 1:01:30
  they're like, the leveling up and the kind of the mutagens and
• 1:01:33
  the kind of the RPG elements are all making a lot more sense to
• 1:01:37
  me. So I'm enjoying it.
• 1:01:38
  A hell of a lot more than I had previously, so I Really deep
• 1:01:42
  into that. The moment I've got, like, I
• 1:01:45
  said, I've got the next-gen version, which it comes with
• 1:01:47
  both the large expansions, the two large expansions, which I am
• 1:01:52
  looking forward to playing. So I'm not going to touch.
• 1:01:54
  We're dead until I've done The Witcher and I've got those other
• 1:01:57
  peripheral kind of games. Like Gotham Knights and Dying
• 1:02:00
  Light and stuff like that to play for multiple and fun.
• 1:02:03
  I feel like I've been talking for about an hour and a half so
• 1:02:04
  I'm going to shut the fuck up. I was just thinking meal of it.
• 1:02:08
  Sounds like we need. You need to do another year next
• 1:02:10
  year with all these Guys, don't fight cyberpunk Witcher, 3, all
• 1:02:17
  sorts of these massive gave somebody's know exactly.
• 1:02:27
  I tried to tell you during the day like, you know, could you?
• 1:02:30
  And I think even posed the question to you during this
• 1:02:33
  year, do you think you could stop like, can you put the kind
• 1:02:36
  of, you know, the the emulators down?
• 1:02:39
  Because, you know, and you were like, no, I enjoy them too.
• 1:02:41
  Why would, why would I, why would, why would I fuck around
• 1:02:44
  with stuff like that? So you notice I said, hey, I'll
• 1:02:47
  say it again. Like em, like this stuff, all
• 1:02:49
  the old games, all the old arcade games and games, they are
• 1:02:53
  game games to me, you know, I mean, they're a game that knows
• 1:02:56
  how to be a game. Not a lively varying experience,
• 1:02:59
  you just go on. You have apply, and it is
• 1:03:02
  playing. And you have a little game and
• 1:03:04
  you're doing, and you go. Yeah, that was great.
• 1:03:06
  You don't go. Oh God.
• 1:03:09
  What about if I get the plus one sword thingy?
• 1:03:11
  And I stick it in and then I got to make it over there.
• 1:03:14
  But I've got a craft this and then about this pot threat.
• 1:03:18
  No you just shoot something and then that's it.
• 1:03:21
  Don't slip. But the thing I will tell you
• 1:03:23
  what before we get ourselves a nice little beverage, why do you
• 1:03:27
  ever listen to the next candidate for x?
• 1:03:30
  I Hi. I'm Gavin.
• 1:03:33
  Some of you may know me from the gears and beers nights.
• 1:03:36
  I used to gamertag Gambit. I play mainly on Xbox but now
• 1:03:39
  also on PC, I've had quite a bit of entertainment over the last
• 1:03:42
  12 months, what you my mate, Dave social doing his your
• 1:03:45
  machine and it's all given the grief.
• 1:03:47
  I've gave him over the last 12 months, I would only feed have
• 1:03:50
  got myself. My own smoothie is not spend
• 1:03:52
  anything at all on gaming. I gave shade with a mates, are
• 1:03:55
  avoiding any new titles, you'll buy, which will include the New
• 1:03:58
  Jersey Survivor game, which may be my biggest test.
• 1:04:01
  I have a wife too. It's an adoption by far the
• 1:04:03
  biggest restriction on game in his my time.
• 1:04:05
  So finding different time for games increasingly hard and a
• 1:04:08
  game does have to hold my interest is nothing worse than
• 1:04:11
  coming back to the game after a while.
• 1:04:12
  Not remember what you were doing or Worse?
• 1:04:14
  What controls were. In fact, it should be a game
• 1:04:17
  mode for time for gamers that office to run you through the
• 1:04:19
  controls and tell you what mission you were supposed to be
• 1:04:21
  doing. I have in the past ball games
• 1:04:24
  because I ran off and have have ended up never even put in some
• 1:04:26
  of them up as well. The time I found time to play a
• 1:04:29
  game. I'm interested moved on to it.
• 1:04:30
  Something else. So, guess what I'm looking to
• 1:04:33
  achieve, if anything is a realignment of my gaming habits
• 1:04:35
  and to cut down on those unnecessary purchases to mount
• 1:04:38
  up over the you x x. This is x.
• 1:04:43
  I is well, I'm excited. You already given them a
• 1:04:51
  catchphrase X. I did a little story about Gaff
• 1:04:58
  around here because he's a originally, like I used to live.
• 1:05:02
  Orders there and and when I moved to this house, another guy
• 1:05:06
  moved in use his best mate. And so that's how I know him.
• 1:05:11
  That's how I know Gulf in Wales. But randhir everyone's used to
• 1:05:15
  me talking to him as my mate gave.
• 1:05:17
  So basically anyone who meets him now knows about my, my
• 1:05:20
  calves, that's what they call him.
• 1:05:23
  Not now it's always more like a half, his instant friends.
• 1:05:27
  So there you go. Contestant.
• 1:05:29
  Number two contestant. Is that a word?
• 1:05:31
  Yeah. Gaff.
• 1:05:33
  Okay, I am be the big Welsh vicar.
• 1:05:40
  Everyone knows me my mate garv. He's going to struggle this
• 1:05:44
  year. God bless.
• 1:05:45
  I I you know, to lose sailing the ship of X.
• 1:05:50
  I I wish them well but and the all good that they're all going
• 1:05:55
  to struggle because it looks like this looks like this could
• 1:05:57
  be a bumper year of games. But even if it wasn't, I think
• 1:06:01
  they find stroke. Lenny way to build a city.
• 1:06:04
  Yeah, it's going to be hard, especially for the to Newby
• 1:06:07
  Newby Newby Union bees. Now remember, I'll be gone for
• 1:06:10
  Works in in law profession, so he will be using every rule that
• 1:06:16
  we've been to bury the Chewbacca defense RuPaul.
• 1:06:24
  Might well have to wait and see, I feel you know I just think I
• 1:06:29
  just think he's going to struggle because I think what
• 1:06:31
  will happen Davies? Is it your tremendous Friday
• 1:06:36
  night flirt with games and you'll make a couple of
• 1:06:40
  suggestions and he'll be pissed. Excuse me endear, you might lead
• 1:06:46
  him to Temptation Beyond is beyond his control so I think
• 1:06:49
  exactly you're going to need it, you're going to need to rein
• 1:06:52
  yourself in as hearing. Has himself in talking, which so
• 1:06:57
  Tom. What do you?
• 1:07:00
  How difficult did you find this year?
• 1:07:02
  Let's have a conversation about that.
• 1:07:04
  I stopped you. I found it difficult, I did find
• 1:07:09
  it difficult, I wanted to buy a couple of games that had come
• 1:07:13
  out. I didn't, it wasn't just
• 1:07:15
  normally kind of like big releases for me or anything like
• 1:07:18
  that. I want to play some of the kind
• 1:07:19
  of the smaller kind of Steam games in my view.
• 1:07:23
  Be was also kind of like DLCs and microtransactions because I
• 1:07:26
  don't tend to hold back for something like, say Destiny or
• 1:07:29
  what have you, you can buy the kind of in the in-game currency
• 1:07:33
  for from, you know, for transmog, in your kind of your
• 1:07:36
  character and stuff. And I obviously all this year,
• 1:07:39
  I've not done any of it and if I felt it quite restricting and
• 1:07:43
  because I didn't see the military kind of value, stack
• 1:07:47
  up. I was like, why am I doing this?
• 1:07:50
  This doesn't feel good. I'm not enjoying it.
• 1:07:53
  So when I, I did struggle this year but the the good stuff
• 1:08:00
  outweighed, the bat. So I think having the camera
• 1:08:04
  jury having you guys He's the kind of the Facebook group, they
• 1:08:08
  can't give people poking fun at people and stuff like that was
• 1:08:11
  quite fun. So I think it kind of made up
• 1:08:13
  for it. But would I do it again?
• 1:08:17
  Because obviously, this is my second year at participating
• 1:08:21
  wouldn't do it again. No, no.
• 1:08:25
  No. If I wanted to kind of restrict
• 1:08:29
  myself in this way and kind of learned a lot of lessons that
• 1:08:32
  I've learned, I think I just have a conversation with people
• 1:08:34
  instead rather. Rather than punishing, myself
• 1:08:38
  little depends where your next movie house.
• 1:08:40
  Neal, give it five years time. Only been at moving ICE.
• 1:08:45
  Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
• 1:08:46
  Give based on the based on current Trend, give it seven
• 1:08:49
  years and I'll be moving again. What about you?
• 1:08:54
  David did you did you find it difficult?
• 1:08:59
  I'll be honest, I know this is gonna sound terrible but I found
• 1:09:03
  it a relative piece of piss to be honest because I'm not really
• 1:09:09
  that bothered about much that came out really apart from like
• 1:09:13
  Elden ring at the start and stuff.
• 1:09:16
  And also I got you know I said right from the start I got this
• 1:09:20
  time you know I'm not going to give a fuck about retro and
• 1:09:23
  that's been the big the meat and two veg of the Year for me
• 1:09:27
  really? We, and that's what I'm, that's
• 1:09:29
  what I've enjoyed to be honest this year.
• 1:09:31
  I would have done that anyway, you know, but yeah, I've also,
• 1:09:37
  I'll be honest with you, I have noticed a difference in the old
• 1:09:40
  bank account, to be honest, because I've expended, yeah,
• 1:09:44
  absolutely, not massive, good, but noticeable.
• 1:09:48
  But yet now, I didn't find it too difficult and would I do it
• 1:09:51
  again with the same rules? I could?
• 1:09:55
  Yeah, I could probably just, uh, probably will.
• 1:09:58
  Well, I can't see myself buying that much more this year, so
• 1:10:02
  I'll more or less be doing the same with what I've bought
• 1:10:05
  already. I think I think I've found that
• 1:10:08
  that's going to last me now. I've got enough.
• 1:10:10
  I know I don't need to, you know, go out and buy some more.
• 1:10:13
  I had them the big super excited.
• 1:10:15
  Bit of all I can buy games, I'm gonna buy games.
• 1:10:18
  It didn't really need to, but I've got, I've got plenty now.
• 1:10:21
  So I think I've learnt they will stay last me.
• 1:10:25
  And also, as I was saying earlier, I've got more than
• 1:10:28
  enough to last me two or three years.
• 1:10:30
  If I'm being honest with you, I've just two to three lifetimes
• 1:10:33
  Davis. Yeah, this there's no way I
• 1:10:36
  could go through every, if I put every single game on end-to-end
• 1:10:40
  now, I don't think I would get through them.
• 1:10:42
  Until I don't believe, I'll be honest, enough Abbott's to reach
• 1:10:46
  the sun when it really doing today.
• 1:10:48
  What about you Joe? What do you what do you want
• 1:10:50
  Joe? Would you what have you learnt?
• 1:10:53
  This is our sixth last six months.
• 1:10:55
  Look at all these difficulty. Yeah.
• 1:10:57
  I had difficulty found it. I I think because of the way I
• 1:11:01
  play games, normally I haven't found it.
• 1:11:04
  Crippling me difficult, what's been?
• 1:11:06
  So I normally, I might buy one or two games a year.
• 1:11:10
  Anyway. They're like one beliefs and
• 1:11:12
  everything else. I'm quite Sometimes I will
• 1:11:15
  leave, if it's not getting massive massive height, I'll
• 1:11:17
  leave it. I'll play a couple of years
• 1:11:19
  after it comes out. It doesn't really bother me that
• 1:11:20
  much, and I know that I'm still get the same entertainment, and
• 1:11:23
  it's about half the price by that point, but some games I
• 1:11:27
  will pay that early release tax and everything else.
• 1:11:29
  But so in terms of that, it's only been one or two games
• 1:11:35
  buying worth of difference. If you know what I mean.
• 1:11:37
  Like, I've just not bought one or two games, which is not would
• 1:11:41
  normally do throughout the year. What I have noticed I'm you
• 1:11:46
  won't. It's been hinted at already.
• 1:11:48
  I'm enjoying it more when I can just get something new and play
• 1:11:51
  it again on it. I don't think I enjoy enjoy the
• 1:11:54
  the times and they did, I didn't do as much game and I didn't
• 1:11:57
  enjoy it as much when I was doing it sometimes.
• 1:12:00
  And I'm loved speaking with you lot.
• 1:12:01
  I've Loved all that but what I've been playing a game
• 1:12:04
  sometimes in the back of my mind is like, I've got to do this
• 1:12:07
  with podcast, I've got to do this to take off one of the
• 1:12:09
  game. I'll talk about and I love the
• 1:12:12
  bit where I was thinking about the Char, this B good, I'll have
• 1:12:15
  a chat about this. I'll make a note of this so I
• 1:12:17
  can have a chat later. I didn't like the occasionally,
• 1:12:20
  I thought I better put this on a better start playing Mass
• 1:12:23
  Effect. So I've got something to talk
• 1:12:24
  about. Oh man.
• 1:12:26
  I liked Mass Effect and I think the fact it became a job man.
• 1:12:30
  I enjoyed it less. Yeah.
• 1:12:31
  The pressure wave is pressure. It felt like that work mentality
• 1:12:34
  than that's fucked. You should like I've got back
• 1:12:36
  into Majora's Mask. Again.
• 1:12:37
  This this Like month did it pick up sort of bored of, it will
• 1:12:43
  come back and come back to my arms, pretty it again, it's so
• 1:12:46
  weird. It's just something about yeah
• 1:12:48
  it feels like a job at feel like a chore completely opposite to
• 1:12:51
  me for me it was just our I'm just going to play what the
• 1:12:55
  fuck. I like just enjoy it and talk
• 1:12:57
  about that but that's what my seems.
• 1:12:59
  Well I think I'm a traitor of novelty and that new game will
• 1:13:04
  grab. And if it gets under my skin I'm
• 1:13:06
  just focusing that for ages. But that looked like an
• 1:13:10
  excellent gamertag Chaser of novelty, but I do this.
• 1:13:16
  What's this opened up? A bit more is?
• 1:13:17
  I should be getting involved a little bit more in Social
• 1:13:20
  gaming, so don't really do. I did it a bit for Destiny.
• 1:13:23
  I think I did too much of Destinies of the point.
• 1:13:24
  I was like, I don't want to make a date to spend two hours doing
• 1:13:29
  this, which is what it sort of became.
• 1:13:30
  And sometimes I'll be on there to 1:00 in the morning, on a
• 1:13:33
  work night, trying to do a raid when it was.
• 1:13:37
  It wasn't It shouldn't have been doing that really, he's been
• 1:13:40
  dead, but then there's the other under that skin isn't the way it
• 1:13:42
  is. I'm social gaming way.
• 1:13:43
  Just nipping on little bit of time, do a little bit muck about
• 1:13:47
  go back off again. And I think it's finding the
• 1:13:48
  balance between those, I do like turning on the game and play it
• 1:13:51
  straight away, but don't like organize, the, you see what it's
• 1:13:54
  like trying to organize some of these chats and making them
• 1:13:56
  home. Okay.
• 1:13:57
  Now, yeah, it's not been. Yeah, and yeah, it's not easy to
• 1:14:01
  Wrangle five, guys that were all got families and careers and
• 1:14:05
  stuff like that. So yeah, but I do you mean, do
• 1:14:08
  you mean I see I really judge to last bit really enjoyed that
• 1:14:13
  night. We did we all got together and
• 1:14:15
  did that? Yes.
• 1:14:16
  Okay, ladies in fact there's a couple of nights of it.
• 1:14:19
  There's there's a quiz night was great and that so I keep
• 1:14:23
  thinking of it as those Mega CD games, but they're not marked.
• 1:14:26
  Yes them. In my high called a mega CD my
• 1:14:30
  head as well because I had to stop myself from saying.
• 1:14:32
  Yeah, I forget think you've got one regret, the shoes that we
• 1:14:36
  only did one of them, we didn't do 12 of them.
• 1:14:39
  Or more. That's what that's a.
• 1:14:40
  Massive regret for mine. I promise you.
• 1:14:42
  We will do that this year. Are we allowed to squeal and
• 1:14:46
  still high jet? The ashame twitch Channel or
• 1:14:49
  wooden form we use Are we yeah well whatever yeah we'll just
• 1:14:53
  put one out. They've only wanted to get
• 1:14:55
  access to the midlife gamer channels.
• 1:14:57
  I don't know the passwords years ago.
• 1:15:08
  So Matt what about you? Have you found this difficult at
• 1:15:13
  all in any know, it's been an absolute Joy.
• 1:15:16
  It's been a joy. I've been I've been kind of like
• 1:15:18
  the past couple of years like I bought the Xbox and deal.
• 1:15:21
  That the joke was on the like the, the lead-up to the star of
• 1:15:24
  the show was like oh shit, you are next box?
• 1:15:26
  I'm like, yeah, I did and I never really used it and it's
• 1:15:30
  not that easy as much as they used to.
• 1:15:31
  But I have found myself sort of just thinking about gaming a bit
• 1:15:35
  more and thinking about how I enjoy.
• 1:15:38
  I've all this like free time and I'm one of those guys who can
• 1:15:42
  just like sit in the corner and open it again on my phone and
• 1:15:46
  disappear for three hours. So, it kind of reminded me that
• 1:15:50
  Joe was sitting down and playing A game just a ton of fun, isn't
• 1:15:52
  it? May and you can do it on your
• 1:15:54
  own as well. For some reason I found myself
• 1:15:55
  in this world where, like, I can't enjoy a game on my own if
• 1:15:57
  I'm not like playing it with other people or the wife, sat
• 1:16:01
  there watching me, but I started to play a game just like
• 1:16:04
  headphones on. It's just me.
• 1:16:05
  I mean like Neil you say that you can just sort of like Twist
• 1:16:07
  from one station to another for like a quick half an hour bash
• 1:16:10
  on this the content, the content of a half an hour bash and
• 1:16:13
  submit fully means like an hour's worth of Logistics in my
• 1:16:16
  head too kind of So it's been nice to kind of get into it.
• 1:16:21
  And this pain, I know that like obviously playing I don't have a
• 1:16:26
  backlog and I wasn't buying games.
• 1:16:27
  Anyway, what was nice? This year was to be absolutely
• 1:16:32
  part of the Zeitgeist of Elden ring and it was by Joker and I'm
• 1:16:36
  proud. It was my joke and I was so
• 1:16:38
  happy to be playing it when you guys were playing.
• 1:16:40
  It was like I remember that. That was like a big gaming
• 1:16:43
  moments and is it that was it's been years since I've I don't
• 1:16:47
  think I've ever been that part of it when it happened.
• 1:16:50
  So a November laughter, so I think they've got it first.
• 1:16:53
  But I was like, well, I can maybe I'll wait until afterwards
• 1:16:56
  because if statement will be cheaper and all the Wiki's I'll
• 1:17:00
  be out in like that's Sometimes the best part.
• 1:17:04
  I game is getting it in that initial explosion.
• 1:17:06
  So like, Joe with your Pokemon game, like that's where you are
• 1:17:09
  now, aren't you? It's the initial most of the
• 1:17:12
  initial launch Bays popular at the moment.
• 1:17:14
  Is it going to kind of drop or was it all right?
• 1:17:18
  No, I think I was just about to say actually that that's the
• 1:17:21
  one. My big regret is I didn't use my
• 1:17:23
  joke or an allergen because I think if we got all four of us
• 1:17:25
  playing Alden bring that would be nice.
• 1:17:28
  We really felt not getting that on the same format as well.
• 1:17:33
  Yeah, yeah. Massively and you didn't need
• 1:17:36
  you needed a Wiki that you needed a Davey because I think
• 1:17:40
  Dave was basically everybody's looking for that particular
• 1:17:42
  game. Yeah everybody went to Dave
• 1:17:44
  we've ever support that that's that's what I enjoyed the lat.
• 1:17:47
  I mean, like like what they and Spink and a couple of others.
• 1:17:52
  I spent hours and hours and hours on Twitch like going
• 1:17:56
  through things with them, like tweaking the builds to get them
• 1:17:59
  through things and stuff, like I said, it was a bit of a cultural
• 1:18:03
  phenomenon phenomenon sorry and undistributed Lee Game of the
• 1:18:09
  Year for me, boy, country mile nothing.
• 1:18:13
  Nothing come remotely close. Poverty.
• 1:18:17
  We don't all play. Yeah.
• 1:18:19
  Well if we do play it together and we don't do not learning
• 1:18:22
  kind of curve together and can't leave until cool name.
• 1:18:26
  Yeah, that would have been cool that have been good.
• 1:18:30
  Cool. Excellent.
• 1:18:32
  Right, let's just shoot the shit.
• 1:18:33
  Shall we? For a bit?
• 1:18:34
  We've talked about games for ages ages.
• 1:18:38
  So what was people with? We got planned for this year.
• 1:18:41
  What are you doing? What you're gonna do with
• 1:18:43
  yourselves? If you got any big plans, Dave
• 1:18:46
  Eagle to do anything. Apart from obviously, your
• 1:18:48
  highlighter, your Highlander attempt at work.
• 1:18:50
  Yeah. Apart from that.
• 1:18:51
  Exactly. I've got it.
• 1:18:52
  I've got it quick and in, and then I can do anything.
• 1:18:57
  I've really got the bug for this stuff now, I've really enjoyed.
• 1:19:01
  Just having, you know, it's been a long gap between episodes.
• 1:19:06
  Well, not that much really when you put the blob last, but I've
• 1:19:10
  really got the bug for this. Are we I'd like to do something
• 1:19:13
  along these lines in the future. I would like to do some more
• 1:19:20
  streaming type things. And I am always always going to
• 1:19:24
  run my stupid nights where I have an idea and go, hey Lads,
• 1:19:29
  let's have a go at drinking. We could check in this could
• 1:19:31
  work. Just bear with me a moment while
• 1:19:34
  I whip this out. Well yeah, well it worked.
• 1:19:42
  I would like to do. I've got an idea, like I said,
• 1:19:45
  I've alluded to this before, if I can make it work, it'll be
• 1:19:48
  really, really fun. But I don't know.
• 1:19:51
  Like I said, I don't know if he's technically feasible that's
• 1:19:54
  what doing those tests with. The you playing the emulated
• 1:19:57
  stuff? Yeah.
• 1:19:58
  Stuff is all about. So yeah, nobody got my Blazing
• 1:20:03
  Saddles quote, I got your lazy. I got it, I got it.
• 1:20:05
  Well, but I recognize the bucket place that I'm glad that you
• 1:20:08
  helped me out because that would allow me up.
• 1:20:10
  Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's it.
• 1:20:13
  Yeah, you know, he's been good recording, isn't it?
• 1:20:16
  It's been. It's been fun.
• 1:20:17
  I am. It would be nice to know that we
• 1:20:21
  could do, you know, kind of do something in the future.
• 1:20:24
  And what have you bought? I don't know podcasts, you know,
• 1:20:29
  the commitment the commitment of you go on at 11:30 with, no care
• 1:20:35
  whatsoever. If you just rock up with your
• 1:20:38
  milk, install a dick don't. Well, you find the way, the way
• 1:20:44
  I see it, as a means of doing it for a while, is that?
• 1:20:47
  I would, if Darren called me tomorrow, instead, we doing
• 1:20:51
  Series 2 episode 3, I'd say 100% were doing it and it would be a
• 1:20:54
  podcast. I I think the technology has
• 1:20:58
  moved on and, and social interactions moved on that.
• 1:21:01
  We kind of, if I was to do anything, proper in the future,
• 1:21:05
  I think I'll live as the wrong word but maybe live like the
• 1:21:10
  least amount. Count of post-editing.
• 1:21:13
  So all we got to do is Imagine just that, that was the only
• 1:21:16
  time commitment and you're playing games and having fun at
• 1:21:18
  the same time, that kind of like, it's a no-brainer on the
• 1:21:22
  interactive with a, you can easily have an audience now, you
• 1:21:26
  know, to bounce off. You know, that's part of what
• 1:21:30
  made that FMV night fun as well. I wasn't it.
• 1:21:32
  That we were we did have a bit of an audience because of chat a
• 1:21:35
  bit with them too. Yeah, true.
• 1:21:37
  Well sort this out. We just wait we just need Name
• 1:21:44
  /, mais a meaning, we need it just reaches all that like, you
• 1:21:50
  know, that that mine all stuff out there and we really talking
• 1:21:54
  to so taught sorting stuff out. There's another lad who sorted
• 1:21:59
  something else. That's right, he's going to
• 1:22:02
  appear on. Listen to this.
• 1:22:22
  Hi, I'm Ross grieve, I've been part of medleague game are no
• 1:22:25
  for around eight years. You'll typically find me far too
• 1:22:29
  drunk in the gives a party on a Friday night.
• 1:22:32
  It's more free than a unless new tells me to get out of his arse.
• 1:22:36
  Why would I volunteer for you? No.
• 1:22:38
  Shame fuck knows. Part peer pressure from last
• 1:22:43
  year's host and otherwise of an attempted some self-control.
• 1:22:49
  Overall looking forward to participate but also kinda
• 1:22:53
  crying when putting all the big releases are scheduled for this
• 1:22:56
  year. Just before the go.
• 1:22:59
  Thanks to Dave, Joe Martin O'Neill, for a cracking year of
• 1:23:02
  entertainment, it's definitely helped me get through that
• 1:23:04
  Sunday. I earn it mr.
• 1:23:06
  Grieve is entered the arena like this, like Royal Rumble, isn't
• 1:23:10
  it? It's like it's really, you know,
• 1:23:11
  he's coming in. He's third in, he's eager
• 1:23:14
  lasted. The a first, it was accurate.
• 1:23:15
  You should have been running around outside the arena for
• 1:23:17
  about two hours, trying to find his way into the entrance of the
• 1:23:20
  he did. Exactly, he's jumped in is the
• 1:23:24
  daughter of the tassel in the yeah that there's that their
• 1:23:27
  psyche. Each other out.
• 1:23:29
  I hope we can have another contestant.
• 1:23:30
  Join the areal nerves intention. I'm trying.
• 1:23:37
  Okay, so yet grieve is going to be joining next year.
• 1:23:42
  I love that ladder is ridiculously funny.
• 1:23:45
  And what you saying about me telling him to get out my ass,
• 1:23:49
  right? I need to put a bit of context
• 1:23:50
  about this. It's not actually, you know, as
• 1:23:53
  physical as you think it is. So basically in when we play
• 1:23:57
  Gears and beer, When we actually play Gears of War, he, he makes
• 1:24:02
  a beeline to kill me every single match.
• 1:24:06
  Like I am his Nemesis. No, no.
• 1:24:09
  I don't want a even Nemesis because Nemesis just means, is,
• 1:24:11
  you're right, equal match, but he just fucking bullies.
• 1:24:15
  Me and picks on me and just kills me every single week.
• 1:24:19
  And I at the top of my hand and no shit.
• 1:24:21
  I have received text messages from my wife, on the other room
• 1:24:26
  saying, Neil, you're screaming at the top of your voice.
• 1:24:31
  About somebody coming out of your anus.
• 1:24:34
  Okay. And he's just because he's
• 1:24:36
  constantly chasing me to shoot me in the face.
• 1:24:38
  All the US whichever. So this can't this context of
• 1:24:42
  that. Okay, it does nothing.
• 1:24:43
  There's nothing untoward. You should also go on David Ross
• 1:24:47
  is ridiculously good at that game.
• 1:24:50
  Hmm frightening and I once said to him and I make this in the
• 1:24:53
  nicest possible way stop being a dick head.
• 1:24:57
  No I said Ross, I'm sorry but I really hope you get some sort of
• 1:25:02
  degenerative disease stop working so well.
• 1:25:13
  Realism realism just hate talking, took talking about it.
• 1:25:19
  He did somebody with some fucking too harsh future.
• 1:25:24
  I mean I wish you one of the houses future, I wish you would
• 1:25:27
  have the heart is Futures ever. So there we go.
• 1:25:30
  We got three contenders in the ring.
• 1:25:33
  We'll find out about a potential for Slater and has anybody got
• 1:25:38
  anything else that they want to say before we kind of wrap up?
• 1:25:40
  Up. And and say, our goodbyes to the
• 1:25:43
  kind of the year of Shame X audience, Joe, I was gonna
• 1:25:48
  closing nonsense. So, okay, great.
• 1:25:53
  What the hell is that? I went to a blacksmith's Forge
• 1:25:58
  and made this object here. I think I'm gonna have to go
• 1:26:04
  back is absolutely amazing. It's for the podcast listeners.
• 1:26:08
  It's a sort of weird pirate knife with a tentacle for an
• 1:26:12
  end. That is absolutely incredible.
• 1:26:14
  How these are looks heavy. It is really heavy straight out
• 1:26:19
  of fear feeds that is, is it sharp?
• 1:26:23
  Not massively, I haven't sharpened it.
• 1:26:25
  It's just the end. It looks a bit sharp at the end
• 1:26:27
  where it doesn't like he's got a bit like it.
• 1:26:30
  You could even if we cleave cleave somebody with that, you
• 1:26:33
  could definitely have you done that.
• 1:26:36
  Oh, I wouldn't want it. I wouldn't want to.
• 1:26:38
  Without End, definitely not. And so that and inspired by this
• 1:26:43
  has, this had to have that anything.
• 1:26:46
  I didn't what? Are we goes oh, I can't go much
• 1:26:51
  higher than that. Right?
• 1:26:56
  Give me sight Beyond sight. I didn't sight Beyond sight the
• 1:27:00
  first time and it's it's huge. That's it.
• 1:27:04
  Is it does fit for you guys. So for those obviously for
• 1:27:08
  everyone because we don't choose for this.
• 1:27:11
  So we need a much lacking visual element to the podcast.
• 1:27:15
  Yeah. Basically, the moment Joe is
• 1:27:22
  nimbly handling, a life-size replica of the sword from
• 1:27:27
  ThunderCats larger than life-size, because that's the
• 1:27:31
  pommel and that's my human sized hand on it.
• 1:27:35
  Yeah but yeah, I'm going to pour a few, you know.
• 1:27:37
  Hello Cat. I think lion-o's bigger than the
• 1:27:40
  average, man, you know, you're not a lion.
• 1:27:46
  I said, what do you think? Snarf to him.
• 1:28:00
  That was not a purchase. Then like it was actually
• 1:28:03
  nificant. It was just it was silly.
• 1:28:07
  I was silly but it wasn't right. Okay, good.
• 1:28:09
  You can, I love talking in these terms, Joe.
• 1:28:12
  Like they don't give me facts. Just give me round about
• 1:28:15
  descriptions about particular things.
• 1:28:17
  So it wasn't ridiculous, but it was silly.
• 1:28:19
  It's about two PS 5 Games worth of money.
• 1:28:23
  Hmm, what's this? Not prompted didn't we have her
• 1:28:26
  a reader's question that say if you could have any weapon?
• 1:28:31
  Real life. Yeah.
• 1:28:32
  And and and now now that one of his actually owns one, I'm going
• 1:28:36
  back to that website and I'm going to own one because I
• 1:28:38
  didn't want to be had he would have been the first nerd on the
• 1:28:42
  Block. Don't mind being a second but so
• 1:28:45
  what I was quite excited. I got a message so it's been
• 1:28:49
  dispatched, open the box. What it what do they come in?
• 1:28:52
  By the way you like Box opened it.
• 1:28:56
  I've got the only person has gone of shit.
• 1:28:58
  I've been sent a Viking sword by mistake so it's called the
• 1:29:05
  Kings. I've never seen Vikings a TV
• 1:29:07
  show but it's the Kings node from that.
• 1:29:09
  Wow, that's a huge Viking. Sword of runes written on the
• 1:29:11
  side of it and that sounds cool. Quite odd admin problem, though.
• 1:29:16
  Just excuse me, you've sent me the wrong sort, there's a big
• 1:29:24
  difference. It's minds of fantasies
• 1:29:25
  difference between Vikings and Thundercats.
• 1:29:33
  You've got one job, you just couldn't read it, they were
• 1:29:36
  great about it. They're really good.
• 1:29:37
  And in fact they shipped it before 10 that will back to the
• 1:29:40
  ship. Didn't the guy that took that
• 1:29:42
  brought it took that long another service.
• 1:29:45
  Just thought I better not. Let my HR department know.
• 1:29:48
  We're talking about buying swords here exactly.
• 1:30:11
  I wanted a particular like I'm at my answer.
• 1:30:13
  That question was a destiny sword.
• 1:30:15
  I scrapped that I'm going to I'm going to looking for a Witcher 1
• 1:30:18
  now the which is real nice. Yeah, because I'm looking for
• 1:30:22
  Mom and I think my missus might threaten some sort of divorce or
• 1:30:27
  separation if I get it, but fuck it.
• 1:30:29
  We never sorts all the with. Exactly, exactly exactly.
• 1:30:34
  Exactly. Do you've hit, give hit the nail
• 1:30:40
  on the head, it will have. I like, I'm not like the others,
• 1:30:48
  there's red some years all over me.
• 1:30:51
  You need the sword fighting. I'm just trying to boy your boy
• 1:31:02
  Sonya. My jerking did.
• 1:31:15
  I can't reach inside. My, what was the original
• 1:31:19
  question before we deviated into blacksmith?
• 1:31:23
  Don't know. It wasn't anything much any
• 1:31:25
  further comments? Think a question is that?
• 1:31:28
  Yeah, yeah, bye. You can stop listening now and
• 1:31:33
  subscribe. Fits like done.
• 1:31:36
  Yeah. And ending, done since.
• 1:31:37
  Okay. Before we Then before we say
• 1:31:39
  goodbye and before we say, well, the signal saying about it.
• 1:31:43
  So you may be seeing a bit under a different guys.
• 1:31:45
  We might have conversations about a new podcast that we
• 1:31:49
  might get involved out now. We'll maybe maybe, maybe, maybe
• 1:31:54
  before we do that. Let's let's enter.
• 1:31:55
  Let's introduce the fourth participant now.
