  Speaker 3: rosters and ways that you can like build a wrestler
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: from scratch and like have a storyline when I play is.
• 1:57

  Speaker 3: I think? So the Rock in there, Yeah, you have
• 2:01

• 2:14
  Speaker 3: lot of the new guys. It's just kind of a
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: wild mix. If you love pro wrestling, this is worth
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: checking out.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: My Undertaker.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: And another all throwback for everyone. I mentioned this a
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: couple of months back, but it was only on PC
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: and now it's on your phone. I remember this one,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Backyard Baseball ninety seven. This was the old school game.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: I think it was on a PC and you'd assemble
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: a team of neighborhood kids. That's cute to play baseball
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: back backyard Baseball. And now it's on iOS and Android
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: on Thursday next Thursday. So Backyard Baseball ninety seven. If
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: you remember playing that game, now you can just have
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it in your pocket, which is pretty cool.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Now, this next one I am very excited about. I
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: don't have enough kind things to say about the concept.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Thirty three Immortals is a top down action game where
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: you are fighting against Heaven and Hell alongside thirty two
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: other people.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: So you you are one of the immortals.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: You are I guess, yeah, one of the thirty three Immortals.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: It just looks so cool, the idea that you can
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: play with like a ton of friends. I was gonna say,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: do you have to have thirty two friends? I mean
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: unscrewed or or doesn't everyone have thirty two friends? Will
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: they just match you up with people? They will just
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: match you up. I think you can. You can like
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: you with as many friends as you'd like, and then
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: it'll fill in the rest. The idea here is that
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: it's gonna feel like you guys remember like those old,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: the old massive multiplayer online role playing games, or you
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: have forty people and they were all trying to fight
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: the same boss at the same time, and it's this
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: big old mess. It's kind of trying to capture that
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: magic in these like really quick twenty five minute so
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: it puts you like a big boss and you've got
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: to fight with all these different people and all these
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: moving parts. And if you see on the screen and
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: the trailer is really cool because you see how many
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: people there are on the screen, which feels like, you know,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: old world of Warcraft, that request kind of a vibe.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: But you are all there. You know you're not gonna
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: have to invest four hours to this fight and eight
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: hours a night to playing to get your character to
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: play it. You just jump into a quick twenty five
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: minute match and battle with all your friends.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: In any game.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: That slugline is face the Wrath of God. I'm you know,
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: I'm interested, right right?
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah? I think i'd back off.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Well you have to fight through hell and
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: then you fight your way up to heaven. I guess
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: is the way.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I guess.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: It's out now in early access for PC and Xbox.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Early access is a real cool thing if you guys
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: aren't familiar with the idea that the game is not
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: completely done, but you're going in there and kind of
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: playing an early build of it.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Which ives as you go along, which is so cool.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: As you pay one price in the game just continuously
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: gets better.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: That's good.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: And then when it is a full release they might
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: double the price and you already own it, which is
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: really neat. The big one out this month, though, the
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: one that everyone's probably got their eyes on, the Assassin's
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Creed Shadows.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: It looks like Showgun.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: Yes, finally, Assassin's Creed has traveled to the Far East.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: It's set in Japan in the sixteenth century, and Assassin's
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Creed they are these big open world games, massive open
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: world games, and this one's really neat because they've added
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: they keep adding more and more stuff. And in this one,
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: for instance, there's seasons, so as you play the game,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: you want to just like hang out and not like
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: advance the storyline and just kill people. Well, the weather's
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: gonna change and all of a sudden you're playing in snow.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a little better than Mortal Kombat.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Huh, slightly slightly, not as many you know, decapitations not
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: no decapitations.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, are they're convenient? Hey yeah?
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: Oh you know, how else are you gonna jump off pagodas?
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: So you can in this game. It's really neat the
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: things that they've added. You can recruit a spy network,
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: you can you can hide in like Robin Hood's style.
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: You can hide in shallow water with a little bamboo
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: snorkel kind of a deal. Yeah, okay, yeah, you can crawl,
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: you know, these are all little things that seem small.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: You can you can grab people through the paper walls
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: or whatever.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: And in that way.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: It's really interesting because you know, this has historically been
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: set in either Europe or the Americas, with one that
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: was set in Egypt, I think, so it's cool to
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: see it in a new setting. It's out this Thursday.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: So in two days on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Mac,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: which is kind of interesting to usually get games like
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: this on mac os. I think it's gonna be awesome.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: The last couple were a little middling, that's what I hear. Yeah, yeah,
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: but I think this one has a chance.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: It looks it has potential. Yeah, all right, what's next?
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Okay, all I've got left is a time waster, and
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: this one's kind of I think it's pretty prescient. Right now?
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Can you beat the stock market?
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Ye?
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: The answers no. This is just a cool little graph
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: that you are allowed to either click buy or sell
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: while you watch the little stockgraft going. Imagine that you
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: were It's like you were on a training day and
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: it was all condensed into you know, twelve seconds. Do
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: you know, can you buy and sell it the proper
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: time to make money or are you gonna do it
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: wrong and you're gonna sell it the wrong time and
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: buy when it's too high. What's really neat about this
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: is after you finished playing, if you scroll down, it
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: will show you the actual segment of historical data that
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: you were playing. So it's like, oh, this is like
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: the stock market.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: And underperformed compared to the buy whole strategy.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Well, I made money. I made a little bit. I'm
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: not good.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: It's time to pull out all the money in your
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: four oh one k and start playing the market.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: You might as well play draft Kings.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, that's kind of how it is. This
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: is can you beat the stock market dot Com? Very
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: easy to remember. Can you beat the stock market dot Com?
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: The answer is probably no. You're probably Even if you do, you're.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Not gonna make great money. That's what I've learned.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: All right, Uh, just real quick, I need to take
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: you to task for the two Chickens games that you
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: had for us last time. Oh no, my wife, her
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: best friend, and my nieces completely addicted.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Completely.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Can you not beat it? Does it not have like
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: an ending that you just keep playing?
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: They just keep playing it.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: I mean apparently for like three hours what they just
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: sat and played this game.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: That's fantastic.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, my god, that is not fantastic.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I have a bunch of recommendations
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: built on that. If they need more, well I suppose, yeah,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: they're gonna run out of Chickens eventually switch one addiction
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: for another gains exactly. That's awesome, But it was.
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: So bad that that Sue told the nieces, do not
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: tell your dad that I'm the one who showed you.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Are They just playing it on their phones, then on
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: their pads and their phones, chickens.
