It's behind the couch.
Why is it behind the couch?
Behind the couch because it's a shy cat.
Is it gonna like fucking just jump on the mic and like start humping it?
No.
You taught it to stay behind the couch.
You will more likely do that than the cat.
Is it gonna do aerial piss combos?
No, I was gonna say last week you had that...
I'm thinking about doing that.
You had that hilarious thing where you're like, Matt, say goodbye to all your action figures
on your shelf.
I've realized that you guys have destroyed more of my action figures by simply handling
them than the cat.
Says you.
Well, you touched my...
The vanquish crumbled in your hand.
The vanquish crumbled?
The vanquish.
But you know what?
Reality also has made your toys crumble.
You just look at them the wrong way on the shelf and they don't die.
Will this count if we pick the cat up and throw it?
You would have to give video evidence of that happening to the cat.
So he looked the cat in it.
Everything would fall and break and Venom would stand alone.
He really would.
Maybe the predator, but yeah, Venom would stand alone, no pressure.
That Rex is fucking done.
I was gonna say that Venom, that Venom is the, is you can equate that with the thinker
statue from all the Phoenix Wright games.
Oh yeah.
Because it's super heavy, you can kill someone with it.
It's a murder weapon.
It's a murder weapon.
It's got the fuck in it.
Yeah, I know.
I wish the thinker.
Imagine if it was a clock, or Venom's like a five o'clock, we say it's 5 p.m.
Or whatever.
Are you ruining my career, Spider-Man?
The most sinister father of the cat.
The most sinister father of the cat.
Time to hate Spider-Man.
The most sinister father of the cat.
What?
Looping around.
Looping around.
We saw a cat.
It's gonna, it's gonna jump out from behind you and bite your neck and you're gonna die
alive.
And then Liam will become a cat.
No, that's not how it works.
That's not how it works.
That's not how it works.
Vampire cats.
The new evolution.
Vampire cats?
Yeah.
Why would an animal biting you turn you into a vampire?
Why wouldn't you just say cat boy at that point?
No, because I just don't say that.
Really?
Really?
Don't say that.
Maybe they're all reverse vampires and they have to get home before dark.
Reverse vampires!
Welcome to the cat boy cast.
There's a picture on the wall on the Facebook right now of someone going, hey look, I found
Liam and it's some cat boy person doing like a weird pose.
So it's already there.
Oh, I don't deny it.
What do you mean by cat boy?
I don't know.
I just thought it was a cat cosplay.
He's got a tail and stuff.
Oh, you mean like actually it might be a girl.
Okay, we're not sure.
Yeah, well, these things happen.
Yeah.
Alright, what's going on with you guys?
That's too angry.
Yeah, we had a big argument.
We just fucking, yeah.
It wasn't even an argument.
It was a debate to the free debate of the debate.
Okay, wait, wait.
It was a three on one.
But that one's going to filibuster that shit.
We don't have to listen to filibuster it.
That just shat his pants and refused to leave.
I'm not leaving.
You're just having to deal with it or hose me off yourself.
I'm not leaving until someone wipes me.
What did I do this week?
Not much, man.
I watched a lot of MythBusters.
That's a good thing to watch.
And every, Matt and I were talking about this on the way over here.
It's like, we're watching, I'm watching MythBusters.
And every single time Carrie Byron comes on the screen,
I just go, damn.
Yeah?
So hot.
Yeah, okay.
But no, MythBusters is awesome.
And I bought a 2DS, which I previously made tons of fun of on this podcast.
But it's so nice.
But it's so nice.
I made fun of it because it looks like this dumb tiny cake thing.
But then I got it because I was looking at my girlfriend's 3DS,
which is the original.
And her Pokemon looks so much nicer than mine because of the pixel density.
And then I saw the 2DS.
I'm like, that actually looks really comfortable.
So I went out and got one and was like,
I really like this one the best out of all the 3DS versions.
The word on this treat is it makes your games look better.
It makes them look like the original one did,
which everyone forgot about because we're all used to the XL's giant size.
And once you got used to the XL stretching the picture,
when you go back to the smaller screen size,
it looks like the game's running at a higher resolution.
No, it's beautiful.
It's so dumb.
It's so stupid.
It's so dumb.
Sorry, I was just going to try them in there.
When someone had an original 3DS and they held it again,
this is the worst console ever.
Absolutely.
But when they held Pat's 2DS, I was like, this isn't that bad of a feel down.
So I'm struck by the irony because I remember back,
I don't know if it was on podcast,
but I was talking shit about the 2DS like,
ah, look at this dumb cake thing for games.
And then right after that, I said,
I really wish they would just make a 2DS an XL light,
where it's the XL's like aesthetics and feel
and the original screen sizes and fuck 3D, I don't care about 3D.
And that's what the 2DS is.
Nintendo makes the Wii U 2.
It's just going to be a tablet that's twice as small,
but it looks twice as big.
And it'll be way more comfortable and look twice as good.
You're totally right.
That would be way better.
The Wii U gamepad at half the size would be way better.
You skip this entire 720, 1080, 900p argument
by just shrinking your screen size.
Just screen down.
Nintendo tech.
I tried it today at work.
It's so nice.
It's so comfortable.
I think I'm going to get one.
One of the best shoulder buttons of any hand held of all time.
You said Liam.
I think you said you wanted to buy one for your little brother, no?
I want to for the holidays.
Spoilers for him.
Don't listen to this, Liam Jr.
What do you mean, Liam Jr.?
I mean, Liam's dad Jr.
Oh good.
There we go.
That's what he's called.
How'd you know?
Yeah, I still think I'm going to get one for him for the holidays.
You're just going to like...
Only now I might pick one up for myself.
Yeah.
Or fuck him.
Just keep it.
And you can't beat that price.
It's really nice.
It's super cheap.
It's 130.
In Europe it dropped to 100.
Yeah, it dropped to 100.
And then I picked up...
I might wait.
I picked up because, you know, no clamshell.
So I'm like, well, you need a case for this.
You need a case for that.
The case that Nintendo sells is like 12 bucks.
And it's the best case I've ever used with a hand held.
It's so perfect.
It's the exact same size as the 2DS.
So there's no situation in which you can't fit the whole thing with the case in the same
pocket or whatever that you would not be able to fit the 2DS.
Is it a soft case or a hard case?
It's a soft...
I have it here.
So if you get like coat...
Fuck it.
It's really...
It's super soft.
And the inside seems like it's made out of microfiber.
It's soft, but the 2DS is so damn durable.
Like you throw it off this building and it would be fine.
It would be fine, but your screen would be fucked.
And also your screen would not be fucked.
Except that there's been articles about here's a cracked 2DS screen going right down the
middle because it's one big screen.
And that one big screen fixes what is my most hated thing about the XL and the original
3DS is that they use shitty left over screens from mobile phones.
This is a quality change.
And sometimes you'll get the top screen and the bottom screen have different color temperatures.
The top one or the bottom one is a little more yellow than the other one.
Now, if they're both the same, who gives a shit?
But mine are not on my XL.
So whenever there's a white scrolling thing, I get to look...
Oh, my screen's so fucking yellow.
It looks so bad.
But with the 2DS, it's one screen.
So there's no way to have different color temperatures because it's the one screen.
To move them all.
Yeah, exactly.
If you go back to the original DS, the fact...
Before we got DS5...
What a piece of shit.
Man, it's the worst ever.
It's the worst ever.
It's not that much different than the Tigard...
It's a TI calculator.
It looks hideous.
And it was super dark.
We were talking about the FMVs and Metroid Prime Hunters.
Yeah.
How it separated the f...
Because it was a ginormous f.
There were FMVs in that game?
Yeah.
I couldn't see them.
But there was like 2 inches between the top and bottom screens.
More like 4 inches.
But they counted them as one screen for the FMV.
So it looked like a complete mess.
But that was only in first hunt.
They fixed that for the actual game.
And then with the 2DS, that's a weird side effect.
You know when you go on the options menu and you scroll a Yula or something?
And it counts it as one screen.
Because it's completely flat.
And the difference between the two screens is maybe a centimeter.
It looks a lot more natural.
It looks like there's just a little separation.
Well, that's what struck me.
It's less than a centimeter.
It's tiny.
It's really small.
I would almost imagine some games would suffer because they spaced it properly for the 3DS.
Nah, that's fine.
But like, I don't give a shit.
And who gives a shit about 3D on that thing?
Sure, exactly.
I mean, it's fun.
But you know what?
I'm down for 3DS.
It's fun but it's impossible to use.
Because you're going, ah, ah, the perfect spot.
That's one degree.
I never had that trouble, whatever.
What have you been doing, Liam?
Really not much.
I've been playing The Destiny of Spirits Beta.
Which is pretty...
It's the Vita F2P game that Sony Japan's making with Q Entertainment.
Really baffled that I never heard of this.
That's absolutely okay.
Is it Panopticon?
No.
Boy, do I wish I was in the Panopticon beta.
Q Entertainment.
That's a good name.
Yeah, no.
It's good.
I mean, it's one of those stupid cell phone collect creature games.
It's fun and it's free.
So it's like, I'm not gonna...
It's fun.
That's the end of the thing.
Have you put any money into it?
You just called it stupid.
You can't just beta.
Good.
There's no money.
But it's fine then, right?
Yeah.
I mean, at the end of the day, I'm having fun with this or whatever.
I got to the Dark Souls 2 beta test.
Yes, so did I.
I didn't play it for a second, but...
No, you guys can't.
No, you can't.
Exactly.
Fuck.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
At least they came out and said they're gonna get it back up for life.
Fuck that.
They came at...
Okay, here's the deal.
The European and Japanese players could sign up and be like, hey, put me in the beta.
Yeah.
If we're North America, they just put out a public code and said whoever gets it.
Whoever gets it, master risk, first 90 hours.
Right?
So then everyone gets it.
And then they say, okay, guys, the test starts at 2 AM on a Saturday.
And you go, well, fuck.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then you stay up, and then you find out that they poorly translated that.
And it actually starts at 3 AM.
And then you wait up till 3 AM.
And then they go, whoops, we fucked up the patching.
North America and South America can't play.
By the way, Pat, you're welcome, buddy.
Yeah, well, I really appreciated you sending me that code.
I still appreciate it.
Wow, fuck, Namco of the United States or North America.
I'd tell her like a month from now.
And then they said we're going to do it next week.
Guess what?
Also at 3 AM.
Until, until you can play it.
At which point you'll be making giddy noises.
No, I'm not going to stop hitting Namco.
Oh, love from software.
Fine, yeah.
But Namco is a bunch of shit.
That fucking mirror knight can't wait to fight that guy.
I'm surprised that they keep making it a consistent Saturday and not like, man, Tuesday, Saturday.
You literally don't work whatever day.
Like fucking 2 AM.
Everyone's claiming to shut down the country now, basically.
They're all like, we got to pick weird days, lest we fuck something up.
The only other thing I really did that was like significant was watch Kill the Kill.
Which was great!
We all watched it together, actually.
Oh, you guys watched it together?
Yeah, yep.
You weren't there.
You weren't there.
It wasn't time to get enough oil.
Fuckers.
There actually was.
But yeah, that show just keeps going up and down and up and down.
You mean up and up and up and up and up?
Yeah, well, no, no.
When I say up and down, I don't mean 120.
Or do you mean case?
Like 90.
And then like, you know.
But after seeing four, I figured it out.
I realized, yeah, you did.
The thing with how do you want up Gurren Lagann?
You can't, right?
But what you do is you make the same level of like epic craziness about shit that doesn't matter.
Like being tardy.
Like forever a tardy student.
Yeah, forever a tardy student.
It's same with the same magnitude as Lord Genome like protecting humanity from the antispirals.
What I will say is if any show can one up Gurren Lagann, it's this.
It's gone for it.
Because this is episode four of what?
26?
But when we get to space, it's going to be over stupidity.
And we can all agree that there's only one way to go and that's to space.
That's the only place you can ever go.
Spoilers for Kill La Kill, they're going to go to space.
Or like deep into hell.
You go all the way up or all the way down.
I guess both polar opposites are going to be like the school field trip.
Let's go to hell.
I don't know.
Maybe not because it was pretty serious in the third episode where they were just like
I fucking hate you.
Oh, I hate you too.
And then they're like you're going to fight all the dudes.
Yeah.
The third episode, which I totally forgot to mention last week.
You're going to fight all the dudes.
Amazing when she got her costume.
It looks like the final episode of anything else.
Exactly.
But that's how you do it though.
And it's like MQ2 versus...
It's following the exact same path that's going on.
The first one you're like yeah.
And the second one you're like yeah.
And the third one you're like oh my god.
I feel like even Gurren wasn't at this pinnacle that early on.
Not this early.
Okay, episode three.
No, but the first moment he punches Enki, takes his helmet and puts it on.
You're screaming.
You fucking lose it.
It's awesome.
That's one moment out of the same episode.
And then episode four is like a laid back non-fighting episode.
Whereas there is no episode four in Gurren.
Yeah, exactly.
Gurren doesn't have an episode four.
I will say this.
My favorite quiet moment in Gurren is actually when they first burst out of the ground.
And you get to see the two sons.
And it's such an awesome shot.
They never get that quiet again.
No.
And I'm waiting for that moment.
They're doing the same.
They do like right before the thing with Kamina.
And you know.
No, but I know what he means.
Like just a scenic quiet moment.
Everyone just takes a break.
And the next episode is going to follow the same path where episode five is where you introduce
a new character that will stay on the cast for the whole time as part of the hero team.
And that new character will, I'm going to guess,
exist to assert some level of gravity to the situation that was not previously there.
Of course.
In Gurren, it was Roshu.
Right?
You were like, oh, well, we're going to do it.
And then Roshu's like, it's fucking rough up here.
Yeah, it's not great.
And then this new character Trigger, whatever the name is, is probably going to do the same.
It's like, yeah, you're fighting in school and all that, but the world is destroyed or something.
We've already established it.
Teacher guy is the Yoko.
Yeah.
Oh, man, he's great.
Mako is Kamina, gives the speech, and then the hero powers up.
And then Mikasugi, the teacher, is Yoko, but for girls.
So does this mean that Guts the dog is going to turn into a crazy fucking badass at the end?
That's exactly what it quite probably means.
That means Mako's family is like the Jiha village.
Right.
They're going to put a little dog hoodie camui on Guts.
Yeah!
Absolutely.
That show is so good.
It's so good.
Matt, what have you been doing?
Me being the industry mover and shaker that I am.
Fucking enough with the premise for once.
Just go.
He pays the bills round here.
Seriously though, Matt, can you please change your fucking voicemail?
Anyway.
It's so infuriated.
This motherfucker's voicemail.
Hey, welcome to Best Friends Enterprises.
Yeah, I might get back to you because I'm a douche.
This is so good.
When all of that facts stop being true, then I'll change it, right?
So anyway, let me finish.
I went to the Batman Ark Morgan's launch party.
Yeah, you did.
I went to one of the most exclusive clubs in our city.
Geez, you went far.
Well, one, two, three, four.
Its address is one, two, three, four.
That's the actual street address.
And the club is Sank.
The club is called the Sank.
Yes.
It's pretty exclusive.
The red carpet rolls out onto the street.
That's sturdy.
Yeah.
The doorman is chomping on a ginormous cigar.
Yeah.
So that's what I was like.
This is pretty good.
So you went to a place where you wouldn't be surprised if Batman showed up and started hitting people?
Guess what?
He was actually there.
He was there.
He had this lifelike Batman statue in front of like, you know what you see?
A Hollywood red carpet thing.
And they have like the big sign that has the logos of everyone that was involved with like
the movie or the game.
And it had that and it had like fucking paparazzi and I'm like...
That was on Batman?
And it was all on Batman.
And you know, you go in there and this club used to be a church.
So I really felt at any minute Wesley Snakes would drop down and just start hitting people.
Yeah.
Or whatever.
Break through the glass.
Exactly.
Or Batman, whatever.
I tell you to use it.
And I forgot.
Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate up here.
Some motherfuckers are always trying to rip off Rocksteady.
Anyway.
It was really kind of weird because I met tons of people I'd forgotten about that I had worked
with like years ago in QA and then I'm like, oh my God, you're here too?
And I was like, yeah, whatever.
How'd you get in?
I got in.
I also met the nice young man.
Selected his way to the top.
I really did.
I totally did.
I met the young man that actually donated our current OG Xbox that we have right now.
So any sort of Xbox only games to thank for him.
Also, I didn't play in a lot of fucking ace attorney dual destinies.
I was hoping someone knows it.
It's actually way, way better than I thought because I was worried after playing the E3
build and the demo.
I'm like, oh, well, you know, this kind of sucks is because it was Phoenix going, oh
God, I forgot how the lawyer and being like, oh, I've got butterflies in my stomach and
that's just the demo.
Yeah.
We started off and it's completely different.
Cool.
And then there's Athena and Phoenix just comes in like a badass stomps down the door and
says, yo, I'm here to solve the problem.
That's awesome.
And I'm like, thank God, because that's what I was worried about in dual destinies.
Just like Apollo looks amazing in dual destinies.
Yeah.
Something really.
Did you see the art of Apollo?
Yeah.
He's like, oh my God.
Well, in the trailer that just came out, they showed like there's normal him and then
something happens and then gets that form.
And then they're clearly at odds with each other.
So they're probably going to have a case against each other.
And I was telling Pat today about how they already have two characters that are like blue
badger type characters.
Oh, it's so good.
And they're so dumb and good.
It's like super stupid.
I'm so excited.
So everyone at work was playing Pokemon and this is the only other sound that's coming
out of three years now.
Hold it.
Hold it sound, you know.
Objections.
And I guess like I was playing a lot of TMNT out of the shadows because I will officially
announce here we will not be doing that game in any form.
Thank you.
Thank you.
It's ridiculous.
I want to maybe we'll talk about this later, but if we have a second.
It's probably the buggiest game I've played in a long, long time.
And there is no news on a patch.
It's not as though we don't like playing.
There's some cool stuff going on.
I was hoping it would be a good four player game.
Now when it came out the end of August, there's no word on a patch.
And when I put in like TMNT glitches or whatever bugs into Google, just a million zillion results
of people just freaking out.
Now when you say buggy, do you mean like as to be uncompletable?
In my situation right now?
Yes.
Great.
Awesome.
Thanks Darksiders team.
Thanks and shout outs to the guys who put fucking matte art and pat artwork on the walls
of the texture in the game.
Well now I feel like an asshole.
You should have known.
I was trying to dig it to you.
I was going to say, this is clearly an issue on Activision's side.
When I played it at E3 and I talked to someone, they're like, you know, the builds are going out
and we kind of need like we're trying to make a deadline and stuff like that.
So, you know, Activision as we all know loves to.
I would like to apologize.
I'm sorry.
I am aware that like crippling bug scenarios like this are always because the publisher
says, nah, nah, don't work on it anymore.
We're not going to pay you.
I like the fact that they dropped T-U-R-T-L-E-PAL.
Yeah, I was going to say, we did play it and we love the music.
There's so much about the game that's really good.
But like, we're going to play the arcade mode and the arcade mode seems fine.
But I must complete the single player.
I put into five hours of it.
I've gotten to the third level.
There's seven levels.
This reminds me of what happened with New Vegas when it came out.
That first month when New Vegas came out, that game was fucking broken.
Like, completely fucking broken.
Like, not gold.
Like, a patch came out like a month later and that made the game into like a gold state.
And why?
Because Bethesda said, nah, we're not going to pay you to work on patches.
Just put it out.
Just put it out.
It's always the publisher's fault.
Well, after five pieces of DLC on the last one, they're just kind of abusing them.
Yeah.
Also the fact that the developer Redfly, who I really like, played their games Mushroom Men on the Wii and Mushroom Men.
And the Ghostbusters Wii version.
And I tested both those games and both of them, like, fine.
No, like, it's not buggy at all.
They also have a really good, like, iOS platformer where you can turn on and off gravity at will.
The gameplay mechanic.
So, like, you'll jump and you'll turn off gravity and you'll just keep going at that angle until you turn it back on.
Like, that frog from Crisis.
But it's really fun.
No, I love the frog from Crisis.
I love that frog from Crisis.
But yeah, it's really fun.
You play as a little astronaut and, like, you jump around and stuff.
It's cute.
I really like Redfly too.
I think they're really underrated.
The only other thing I did is I finished the Hannibal TV series.
I was watching it with The Misses.
And, okay, for all those that don't know, just really quickly, what happens in Silence of the Lambs?
You talk to Hannibal Lecter because he's in jail.
At the end of this first season, the hero gets sent to jail and Hannibal's all okay.
And you're like, how the fuck is this gonna transition?
So that's why I'm interested in seeing a second season.
It becomes Prison Break Season 8.
It comes Prison Break Season 8 back to space.
Yeah.
Oh, man, I was watching that.
And then the leprechaun is there back from the hood.
Like, I know you're joking, but I'm just like...
I read something and said, after this season of Prison Break, what could possibly happen?
They gotta break into space.
Like, it doesn't make any sense.
The phrase, back to space.
Pull back to space.
There's something about that that I'm just like, ooh, it feels good when I think about it.
You gotta return to space.
You're in there.
As you know, there are seven sequels you missed.
So yeah, that was me.
What about you?
Oh, well, for me, I spent all weekend on the couch just playing Pokemon.
I also play Pokemon.
Those are really lazy.
How many badges you got now?
I have six badges in 50 hours.
I have six badges in 35 hours.
I'm taking my sweet-ass promise.
So here's the deal.
I spoke to my girlfriend because she beat the game in under the time that we took to...
A lot of people are just speeding through it.
But I asked her, she's like, how?
What?
How was this...
And I thought about it and I thought how I'm playing.
And it's the difference between people who always go back to the Pokemon Center
and people who use potions.
And just run forward.
And as soon as I started using potions and heal items, because you have lots of cash,
I started blowing through it.
Even though I was still catching everything.
See, for me, though, is that I'm taking my time and I don't mind.
Because all I'm catching things, running back, leveling up.
All I would say is that you will cut out...
All you will cut out by using potions and hyper potions and stuff is TDM.
That's all you will remove.
One of the things I want to point out also is your girlfriend and I,
we're both like fucking...
I haven't touched the game since launch weekend,
but I played 13 hours and I got five badges.
We play all the Pokemon games every time they come out.
Yeah, you guys are nuts.
And we know everything.
She's yelling at me because I don't know how to breed Pokemon.
I think that's also one of the reasons is there's never a point...
There's never a point where we're like a question mark.
It's just like, oh, this gym is this.
I better catch one of these.
Why are you such a bitch?
You just put a ditto and he fucks.
Like, I don't know, jeez.
But I'm really bad at dittos today.
But I'm also like taking the time to go,
oh, this looks like it'll turn into something cool.
Like, this is a cute version of something that might be badass.
Let me level it up till it gets badass and just feel good about having it.
I'll catch everything that I see and then when I'm done,
I'll just look at Sarabee's chart and be like,
what do I have that I want to level up?
I do it the opposite way, but I catch everything I see and then like,
yeah, you look like you're fucking cool.
This go-lurk is the coolest thing now.
I'm rocking one of those.
How luches the coolest thing.
That too.
How luches the coolest thing.
But yeah, no.
So a bit of that and I tuned into the stream, the Sitch Farm stream.
Yeah.
I shagged back for a little bit.
There was a stream.
Yeah.
That was kind of fun.
I said what's up to everybody and like,
all I got from that were two things.
I walked in on two things happening.
Oh lord, yeah.
One thing that was happening was Liam Milk.
I don't know what that is.
And I told them I don't want to know.
I don't want to know what that is either.
Don't even define it for me.
It's too good I am.
I am 100% certain I've never uttered that phrase.
I don't know what you guys.
I don't know where that came from.
I saw that you see that hilarious picture.
Yeah.
Which one?
Because there's a couple.
There's a couple, yeah.
But I know which one you're talking about.
The pink one.
Yeah.
But I told them and they're like,
and I'm like, look, I don't know what it is.
I don't want to know.
But I'm making a cannon.
Liam Milk is now a thing.
And the other thing was butt selfies.
Butt selfies?
Butt selfies.
Is that like,
I got to feel like Matt and I had something to do with it.
It's like taking a selfie,
but you're doing with your butt.
You do it with your butt?
No, with your butt.
You know, like, of your butt.
That's what I mean.
Are mirrors involved?
Probably not.
Like mirrors should start doing that.
Butt selfies in different locations.
Spoilers for this week's podcast preview.
I remember those naked pictures of Scarlett Johansson came out
and there's like, it's like shows her butt,
shows a bit of her chest,
and then someone just posted a picture of a crying eagle
and says, September 13th, never forget.
The day when Scarlett Johansson's things.
And I remember seeing someone saying something about butt selfies there,
but I don't, we never said that.
I've never taken a butt selfie.
Going on record.
That's a good thing.
It's a hard stance.
I know it's controversial.
Right.
You haven't done them yourself,
but you do approve of them.
I do approve of them.
All right.
I'm very relieved you have taken this stance.
Everybody, we like the butt selfies.
Diffusing tense situations.
Don't send us any butt selfies.
That's not what we're saying.
Don't send us any butt selfies.
That's not what we're saying.
You know Plaguewell.
There's some of you who should send us butt selfies.
You know who you are.
18 and over please.
Liam's like, yes.
And where should we send these butt selfies to?
Super best friend.
No!
No!
That's awful.
Where was that?
Don't send them.
Don't send them to.
Super best friend.
No!
And she went like,
Wally, what's new in the world this week?
Wait, hold on.
The other thing I'm doing is...
Did you play the wonderful 101?
I played a lot of that and that's fucking long.
Where are you?
It's super long.
I'm in chapter 5B.
I haven't started the game yet.
You haven't started the game.
I haven't seen anything.
It took me three hours to get from 4A to 5B.
That game is fucking long.
It's so big.
Super big.
Oh my god.
I remember we were told it wasn't.
Yeah, Camille told us it wasn't.
Camille, what he actually said was he just said
people who are good will finish it quick.
And remember when there was a little stink about,
oh this game is going to be too short?
Yeah, and then his response was,
I don't care if people beat my games quickly.
If you look at my games for completion time,
you'll always be disappointed.
And then he puts out wonderful 101,
which is like twice as long as everyone thought it was.
Did he forget about Okami?
All the rest, sure.
Oh great, that thing.
And then for anybody who Okami the longest game ever.
The longest best game ever.
I could have done without that winter chapter.
I really couldn't.
I reveled in it.
I was like, there's more.
No, and to anyone who was around on Saturday night,
shout outs to the Reddit guys.
I did a little AMA.
I answered some questions.
I think my favorite moment,
because I checked in on that,
to see if you were holding up the best friend standards.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you, sir.
Is someone saying, hey Woolly,
what's the worst thing about your apartment?
I was just thinking about this.
And you go, your mom not leaving it.
Yeah, I was pretty good.
Classy, buddy.
Thank you, thank you.
We're very proud of you.
As if any of us would have said that.
We'll see you in an AMA or a text situation.
It's really easy,
because you get to just stare at that for 10 minutes.
And be like, yeah, this is what I'm going to say.
But then it'll look spontaneous,
so it'll look super smart.
No, that was an instant response.
Oh, you just knew.
That kind of felt like one of you.
And you know what,
I did a little pre AMA in the Shadrack thing too.
So I think that's some other questions.
This was fun.
When are you going to do one of those, Matt?
What about you, Liam?
They tell me to tell you.
Who knows?
Probably, let's say, you know, mid-November.
It'll happen.
But remember, you've got to give you some breathing room.
Give me some breathing room.
Oh, yeah.
But you have to choose between going there
or going to V,
or going to any of the other game places on the internet.
Hey, no offense to V.
It's just way easier to type stuff on Reddit.
Yeah.
Because people got upset about the fact that like,
you and I, Pat, have done it on both at this point.
Yeah.
V was a nightmare.
The layout is so...
I'm so used to it that when I did it on V,
it was like snap, snap, snap.
You're quoting a million people at the same time.
It's more conducive.
But people got upset because like,
how dare you go to the red?
Yeah, but then you go to V.
But again, it's less about it just being like a mess
and more just like, are you used to it?
No?
Or is Reddit lowest commented on the internet?
The other thing is on Reddit,
you can click on like,
will you are my name and see a list of every answer we gave.
Yeah.
So for what it's worth,
I think if we ever do go to the V things and do it,
it's more unofficial just off the record quick here.
And then the Reddit ones are like,
here's the link.
And to be fair,
whoever the hell they got modding that new subreddit,
like has the dropdown bar with all the playthroughs?
Yes.
It's awesome.
It's so well put together.
I agree.
And I saw like a plan that they have for like,
what they want to do with AMAs like yours and mine,
the way Louis C. K. did his.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
It's like a full fucking.
And there's a big rule says,
please stop posting creepy furry art of Pat.
Always better rule.
You will scare him away.
That's when the new mod staff came in,
because I was like,
I wonder what's happening on Reddit.
That's a creepy picture of me overweight with the foxtail.
Yeah.
Mmm.
Just like,
wearing a diaper, I think.
And I'm like,
didn't I scare you away as well?
No, no, no.
I just got tired.
No, I just got tired.
I was completely without a diet.
And then I was like,
tell me to never come back to Reddit.
And they were like,
oh, we'll clean it up, Pat.
All right.
This week in gaming news.
Stuff happened.
Not just this week,
but a lot of things, whatever.
So yeah,
Watch Dogs got delayed.
It really did, did it.
So what can you tell us about that, Matt?
I was like,
when that hit,
I was like, wow,
that really sucks.
And then when someone brought up the fact that
I didn't even know that these existed,
because whatever,
I don't really like.
You're not buying your fucking bundle for you.
Well,
I was going to say,
is that like,
is everyone got fucked
that ordered a PS4 Watch Dogs bundle?
Well,
no one understood.
It depends on the retailer.
Right.
Some of them figured it out
in a constructive manner.
And some people got fucked.
Some people got fucked.
But like,
some of them were like,
well,
ship you Watch Dogs when it comes out.
You just pay the 460 upfront.
Or some were like,
we'll give you the option to switch,
but we really have to sell a bundle here.
And some just
canceled their pre-orders.
Yes.
All right.
I want to take a moment
to point and laugh
at the idiots who are like,
looks like they were scared of GTA.
These guys are fucking,
they wanted to move away from it.
No, they're scared of their own game
that they're releasing at the same time,
called Assassin's Creed 4.
That has to,
that has to factor a bit into it.
Sure.
Because that happened to Ubisoft before.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Prince of Persia,
beyond good and evil,
got destroyed by whatever
Splinter Cell came out that year.
Yeah.
Which is also a Ubisoft game.
You don't want to create casualties
of your own company.
Especially when Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed
are like,
really totally similar.
And like,
it would be the same thing
if they put out Watch Dogs alongside
like Far Cry 4.
One might even say
Watch Dogs is the next generation's
like, Assassin's Creed.
Absolutely.
Yeah, totally.
Prince of Persia, Assassin's Creed,
Watch Dogs.
And it's kind of a bummer that Assassin's Creed
is just going to keep going,
but hey,
nothing we can do about that.
Because it sucks.
The last one.
What was the actual ad
that they put out though?
Two months in Los Santos
is enough.
Yeah, come to Chicago.
Come to Chicago.
And it was a tasteful ad.
It was good.
You know what?
I liked it,
but like it says a lot about the delay
is that that delay came from
one person's decision.
Yeah.
Late.
Yeah.
Because ads were already running.
Yeah.
But you know what?
In this day and age,
when we've got more than enough
to fucking play games.
Oh, totally.
Yeah, that's the...
Fallish Time is a godsend.
And that being said,
like when Matt brought this up
prior,
we weren't talking about it
in the pocket,
but he said,
when Watch Dogs got delayed,
how many people still continued
to care about the next gen consoles?
Exactly.
Exactly.
Because I don't know about you,
but everyone I know getting one,
Watch Dogs is the game
they're getting.
That launched,
dried up.
Remember,
you and me were talking about
like what's coming out?
What's coming out?
What's coming out in the PS4?
And you're like,
well, watch...
Oh.
Yeah.
Well, the division,
nope, not launch.
Well, the order,
not launch,
everybody I know was
Watch Dogs,
and either Call of Duty
or Battlefield,
whichever one they liked better.
Yeah.
And now it's
down to Call of Duty or Battlefield.
It's like,
I'm buying an X-Gen system
to play Call of Duty or Battlefield.
Yeah.
And I mean,
when I want to get down to it,
like,
for you and I at least,
what's at launch
that's really exciting?
Killer Instinct.
Killer Instinct.
Yeah, that's it.
I don't know,
I still think Knack
looks fucking amazing.
Now, I like the hands-on,
I haven't seen Knack.
I'm not interested in that game at all,
but I did see that article
that you posted saying,
like, this guy was going,
wow, this game came out of nowhere,
it's actually super good.
On IGN or whatever it was.
Yeah.
It's probably going to be like Crash Bandicoot,
which means I'm going to get it,
and I hope I'm not disappointed.
No.
So my launch lineup went from
Watch Dogs,
Knack and Battlefield,
to
Knack, Battlefield,
and AC4, I guess.
Yeah.
That's AC4 kind of.
And then I, like,
I totally ignored AC4 coverage entirely
because Watch Dogs,
and Watch Dogs looks better,
so why do I care about AC4?
And then I looked up
coverage of AC4,
and all of it is like,
it's way better than AC3,
they totally fixed all the broken shit.
AC4 looks really good.
Can we take a second
to just, like, stroke the order
for being third person?
Where is the order?
Next year.
Like, wait,
somewhere.
Next year, 2014.
But you know where it is?
It's not in the first person.
You're right.
And oh my God.
And what they've done,
and I read an article
where they were talking about
what they want to do
for QuickTime events,
it's actually pretty interesting.
What happened in QuickTime?
So QuickTime events in that game
will usually be in,
you're either in an advantage
over an enemy,
or you're at a disadvantage.
Right.
Which is almost every
QuickTime event either.
And instead of giving you
a button prompt,
time will just slow way the fuck down,
and you will scan the environment,
and objects will be highlighted.
Oh, I didn't get that.
And if you select them,
your character will grab that item
or shoot that item
or do something.
Context.
Yeah.
And it like,
it's a weird comparison.
Last of us advanced.
And it is the most similar example
I can think of
is the stage hazards
in Dead or Alive 5
when you do the big power hits.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
A little bit like Walking Dead 2
when the thing's coming at you
and you move the cursor
on something,
look around.
Look around, click,
wait four seconds.
That's all down for that.
But like honestly,
like when I walked over
to your desk,
and you were watching the trailer
and I saw that I was in third person,
that was the sound
of something going from like,
like interest.
Yeah.
And I was like,
that was like the sound of interest
into holy shit on the radar
super hard.
The order looks so damn good.
Man, oh man,
like third person action.
For a guy like you
that doesn't give a flying fuck
about first person shooter
online multiplayer,
then no shit
you prefer third person shooter.
Because third person
lets melee stuff happen.
And hey,
Seth Kylian's working on it too.
Oh yeah.
I saw that.
The S-Kill.
Dude,
you'll be assured you can
in their game.
At the Brazil game show,
I don't know if you watched it.
I watched it.
And Seth Kylian came on stage
to present the order.
And I was like,
that's really cool,
Seth.
I love you.
Keep up the good work.
Stop being so tall.
Keep creating big ups
and hearts to Seth Kylian.
Please be excited
for our Jogos.
Yeah.
Jogos.
I love Jogos.
I love Jogos.
And I'll see you later.
What's up guys?
I have two questions.
You guys read about Edward Snowden.
What?
Edward Snowden.
How was he in this podcast?
Yeah.
So
there's an interview
with a
guy who interviewed him.
OK,
this is fabulous.
Tracked him down
and whatever.
Blah,
blah,
blah.
Talked about him
and what he did
for the NSA and stuff.
Telling stories
about the hero
who has to do
what is right
despite
exile.
Yeah.
That's
ridiculous.
That is
as ridiculous
as every kid
who shoots
his little brother
and says
cause
Scorpion would have killed him.
That is
I love how
you purposely
made a really
bad comparison.
That's
right.
That is
so ridiculous.
But you have to think
that like
that guy who was in a position
where he saw
evil
in his hands
and went
I have to do it.
That is like
you saying
I burn them all
because
Kamina would have
burned them all.
Whoa.
To
fuck the system
man.
Like come on.
No, but Kamina
would have put on
his fucking Union Jack coat
and glove
and punched the shit out of
the line.
If Julian Assange
if he
just came out
was like
I liked Fight Club
that's the only reason
why I didn't
anything.
That I would go
you know what
that makes a little
bit more
Hey why did you slice
this guy in half
and pull out his
spinal cord cause
riding would have
done it.
But no
but either way
he did
a good thing
not a bad thing
Depends who
you ask
Depends on who
you ask
Yeah
Treason
I'm sure there are many
people who will
disagree with us
champion
no
treason
isn't that the last layer
in hell
it is
but you know what
if that is the reason
like honestly
good on you guy
like you did the right thing
I think
having video game characters
inform your moral decisions
seems like a really
he's a protagonist
in his own head
with this kind of thing
totally
and that makes more sense
and that's what's going on
but in the end
it was for the better
I think
oh yeah
probably
no matter how you slice it
he did a good thing
for whatever reason
he did the good thing for
I hope he's liking
the way we're saying this
do you want to
know
because we're like
no everyone knows
I'm just saying
no if you don't know
you should know
but Edward Snowden
look his name up
there's a lot more details
he got into the government's
computer and then said
hey everybody
look what's in the
government's computer
turns out they're
spying on everybody
surprise
and then the government
was like
what's this folder
that I found
connect
guys don't
we told everybody
they can see my balls
oh no
oh man
oh jeez
all these butt selfies
of the public
yeah
the government
took a whole bunch of
butt selfies
you got the nudes of the
president
and they're everywhere
Edward Snowden
exposed them
why would they keep
nudes of the public
why wouldn't you
for diplomacy
for diplomacy
diplomacy
diplomacy is failed
for justice
so leaked nudes
of a new pokemon game
another one
that's not
poke-in fighters
sorry
when you say leaked
do you mean announced
no
like it was not
only announced
Liam knows some shit
unless
which one
gone
the detective
announced
that was announced
yeah on TV
why would they
when hours ago
screams
what is
going on
because it's
super in development
okay so there's
a detective game
where you play with pikachu
and you detect
yes and the enemy
what
and the enemy
do you remember the weird
pikachu facial mocap thing
yeah hey you pikachu
that's that
no the one recently
with the weird creepy pikachu
okay let me explain
let me explain
so
well fine you take
the story then
no
so recently
they came out and said
they were using some
mocap stuff
for a new unprecedented
pokemon game
sorry pikachu
I love the idea of an
unprecedented
unprecedented pikachu title
yeah and it translated
as unprecedented
that's great
and today they came out and said
oh there's two
there was like a pokemon
chose a sequel
that we're not sure
what's going on with that
and pikachu detective mystery
yay
there's no name for that one
yet
and it's just a pikachu
detective game
where you inspect
is pikachu the detective
and he's like
you're the detective
so he's
he's watson
yeah
he's friender
now what's unprecedented
about it
is that
the face capture
is being done
for the enemy
pikachu
what?
what?
wait what?
I missed that bit
there's a bad
what the fuck is this
there's an evil pikachu
that talks
so you're gonna see pikachu
with like
elenor
face capture
that's sick
I don't say this often
but hashtag
game changer
right here
hashtag
yeah
that's really nuts
I didn't hear about those
that is
that is the most
baffling
shit ever
it's gonna be like
meowth basically
what is the point
of having pikachu
actually selling units
damn it
you're
damn it
yeah
if murdered soul suspects
was just
the same thing
right
but with pikachu
we probably do way better
yeah of course
pikachu getting
tossed out a window
like
fucking
then shot
putting a gun on you
like
is there chalk
outlines of
pikachu's on like
the rain
slick streets
like
I don't get it
that's really weird
that is
the weirdest thing
I've heard in
forever
watch it come out
writer frank miller
I hope it's
super good
and I'm playing it
I'm like
this is really good
immediately followed by
this is the fucking
weirdest game ever
yeah
you go I want from murders
perpetrated by
vaultorbs
as weapons
I want
no the wall
the vaultorb is like
the bomb
that they used to
as weapons
I was like
there's looms all on the
street
just drugged out
yeah
my smoke and a big
muck
all over the place
just took a wattish
he's in
he's in the diner
and like
another diner
like the club
and like jinx is
singing on the mic
you know
Mr. Mime's just cooking
Pokemon in the bag
come on
no
writes it so
fuck Mr. Mime
Mr. Mime's great
Mr. Mime's the worst
so good
he's a man with serious
problems
I fucking hate Mr. Mime
he's really bad
he's so cool
thank you woolly
um
there's new screens
of
Attack on Titan
really?
the 3D S game
does it look like a game?
it looks
like it's gonna play itself
damn it
it still has no UI going on
damn it so it is a
virtual novel
no
you know
there's some cool 3D
where you're on the rooftop
and you're fighting the giant
press A to get
eat the colossal Titan
and you're doing all the stuff
but it looks
like it's gonna
swing and play itself
play
press Y to
cry with futility
yes
I feel like
you just look at these screens
and it's like
exceedingly clear
this game has a super
short development time
and like
as it should be
yeah because it's
it's not
it's not like
the kind of game where it's like
hey there's Attack on Titan
coming out
no
we should make a tie in game
no it's
no it's
oh shit
Attack on Titan's fucking hot
do we own the rights to that
or make something
get up quick
go see Fullmetal Alchemist games
yeah
um
so this
don't do that
so there's
like 20 streams that came out or so
and maybe a third
if almost half of them
are just screenshots
of like
static
image from
show
with text underneath
a visual novel style story
which is obviously the
between the mission bits
but the crucial thing here
is there's still no fucking
UI in the screen shots
there's still nothing
it's worrying
which means it can all be
in-game cut scenes
and it's all like just
no no no
like turn based
they showed
no they showed video
like
turn based
no they showed
turn based
but they showed
the gameplay
yes yes
there is gameplay happening
but they haven't
showed us a sequence
no
and that's because it's not
fucking real
because the development time
is 12 minutes
show me an equivalent
of hunting the Big Daddy
video
for Bioshock 1
show me
even though that video
was never represented
by the game
of course
but
give me a proof of concept
take down the Titan video
all I can say is
give them time
because that's what they
don't have
and that's what they
desperately need
that being said Wally
touched a little
bit of a bigger issue
I want those videos
to go away
because the Bioshock 1
1 was like
the game's not
really like that
and then the Bioshock
Infinite 1
it's like the game
is nothing like that
well granted
granted there was
a 3 year period
sure but that game came
out good
whereas Alien Colonial
Marines is the worst
version that
that can happen
like I don't want to see
proof of concept
fake gameplay videos
anymore
I just want to see
like when the game
has a sequence
that you can show
but don't show me the
fake version
okay
unless it's Metal Gear Rising
unless it's Metal Gear Rising
fuck that wall run
I want it so bad
wait for the sequel
to be fair though
that was totally in the game
and then we took it out
oh yeah
no
I was going to say
did we catch up on that
that brand new
Aliens game
made by Sega
that we're all excited about
no
no
because I'm not excited
because were you there
when we read about it
yeah
yeah and that's like
everyone did you want to play
as Ellen Ripley's daughter
that most of you
didn't know existed
because it's only in the
director's cut
yeah
which you then explained to me
she died
normally
safe on
on earth
and then the picture
she's got like
a little cheery
garden behind her
what the
she fucking
fucked off
to whatever
planet number
back to space
and then
Aliens
then returned and lived
a happy life
in some sort of space station
yeah
that is dumb
why is that dumb
why can't you live a happy life
after shit goes down
why would you
as Ripley's daughter
who died
safely on earth
suddenly
fuck off the space
well
before she had her adventure
you're going
you're going
backward
no
because Ripley had
one adventure
yeah
and then
this happens
and then
Ripley wakes up
and the rest happens
that's right
we're just merely pointing out
that this is a transparent
attempt by Sega
developers
out of this
franchise that they've
screwed up so far
in all seriousness
we've talked about this
and the Aliens games
are middling
alright
good if you go for
way forward
and the reason the last one
was so shitty
was not because of Sega
but because of
Gearbox
I'm still correct in saying
that they're trying
their desperate attempt
to get more out of
the life
franchise that they own
by coming up
with a really flimsy
and not very good
I still
I don't see what's so wrong
there's a part in my day
every day
where I wake up
and I realize that there was
gonna be an obsidian
made
Aliens RPG
and it got
cancelled
to focus on
Colonial Marines
and that is
the world's
greatest tragedy
no it's
Saran wrap
transparent
you know what
here's a stone
let's see
how much
I don't know
why they're trying
against us soon
because even if they're
trying to get more out
on the brand
it's reasonable
that brand is fucking
poison now
leave it alone
for what
well I know
the license is probably
timed
also they delayed
one of the things we heard
was they delayed this game
it was supposed to be announced
at E3
and they actually delayed it
to get more
probably because
Aliens was like poison
and they were like
let's get this away
from the poison
I think what that demonstrates
is they at least care
about it enough
to want to do that
I suppose
if one thing
at least it's made by
a generally competent
developer
creative assembly
yeah
they're good
it's by different guys
a really good team
who are probably
not gonna fuck it up
if they're getting more
time than
initially was promised
to them
and Sega clearly cares
about the franchise
continuing
that being said
the premise of the game
being
I think it's fine
the premise of the game
is there's only one alien
which I went
wow that's awesome
and then
it follows
but most of the game
you'll be fighting clones
and soldiers
from Wayland U-10
and then I went
there
because now the alien
has been relegated to a boss
in a first-person shooter
it's by creative assembly
it's gonna be good
I'm tired of first-person shooters
tell me first-person shooters
how do you
if you say
there's one alien
what do you do in the game then
you better hide
the alien
Mr. X
the entire game
you need something to kill
I want
no
I want it to be amnesia
but with a Xenomorph
alright you're
okay now you know that
like
it's coming to fucking kill you
spend the game
just make it
alien 3
the game
yeah
that game would be awesome
there was an alien 3 game
a 3 game
nerd review game
I honestly just think
what Ripley is
fucking doing
like DMC-style gun combos
to multiple aliens
at the same time
well I honestly just think
like just
controlling aliens
just you know
give it the benefit of the doubt
like creative assembly
is making whatever
they're gonna make it
until we see it
it automatically gets
the benefit of the doubt
because it's a different developer
right
but whether or not
I'm interested in that
I mean I'm still bored
by the idea of like
shooting guys
in an alien game
well yeah but we don't know
what the context is
like if you were told
what it was
if you're shooting clones
it's one thing to say
you know you're doing this
with this
but it's a whole other thing
to add context to it
yeah
if someone has the balls
to take the franchise
and not do
aliens
but do alien
with it
or alien 3
where it's like
it's not about
big guns and soldier dudes
and fighting them
like bugs
yeah
do you know what
that would get my
my respect
oh sure
instantly
since Pat said alien 3
do you know be a good setup
and like a way to make that
work
like being with a
uh
uh
Riddick
assault on dark
Riddick
the Riddick game
yeah
remember you would need
to talk to prisoners
that's right
harder with them
you have little scraps
yeah
and it was like
leading up to a thing
and there was like
an economy within the world
like yeah
it could be that too
but I don't see them
doing it
or like you can
like you can swap control
between your crew members
and your bishop
that's also a way to do it
and then guess what
you swap back to one guy
and he's fucking dead
because the alien
I think
I think the problem
is you know
like the aliens game
right yeah
the game that
takes that franchise
and focuses on
the soldiers
and shooting
and being a first person
shooter
you're never gonna be
AVP2
that game is so good
even AVP
made by the developers
couldn't be
AVP2 is so good
it is everything perfectly
and so
that game exists
so
don't
do something different
yeah
give me a
give me a
give me a concrete jungle
but better
no
better
no yeah
no yeah
no I know
I said no
but yeah
give me
like Predator
concrete jungle
that's like
Arkham Asylum
yeah
we mean
we said that
in our play through
imagine a Predator game
where you're a Predator
perched on the thing
and it controls
exactly like
not controls
it works
yeah
we broke it down
yeah do that
yeah
I love the Predator
I'm the king of this city
you guys are weird
so
it turns out that
Namco Japan
is turning out more
Tales games
than
it's
then it's
US team can
actually localize
that is
that is ridiculous
I think that
I literally
can't believe that
but it makes sense
no it doesn't
hire more localization staff
no
I agree
I agree on that
but what I mean by it
makes sense is that's how
you know
each team gets
X amount of money
right
it's not just the magic Namco pool
that they dip into
no but it's
like it makes sense but it's like
yeah Namco give up
but
you're looking at
there's both ends though
you're looking at
one
how small is your localization staff
and B
how many fucking
Tales games
are you making
it's a total mismatch
wouldn't
wouldn't you probably
make more money
yeah
if you localize
the games
that you already developed
everywhere
oh yeah
then
to make so many
for one region
that you can't even
put them out in any
of the other regions
you're talking crazy
like
I know what
I'm actually gonna
tend to
I agree
that they should localize them
because they're developed on
they're on the table
but
three American
Tales games
will not sell as much
and it's a shame
but
but still localized
that might change
if
the fact that the
Tales franchise
isn't this constant
fucking worrying battle
if whether or not
they'll even come out
like let's not forget
that the two
that most recently came out
other than Zillia 2
are on a console
where people are just
like fucking yelling
for games on the internet
and they're two of the
most requested
localization
but are
like Japanese
Tales fans
actually buying one every
six months
like how much
more like
a year
a year and a couple months
it's like Assassin's Creed
not quite a half
but kind of like Assassin's Creed
and even then
that's kind of in spurts
like we went a while out
seeing any
a bunch of
should they just throw
a year after the games
at this point
it's
it's
Tales 2K 15
because the difference
is they're still different
whether or not you like
Tales
they're so fast
well Zillia and Zillia 2
are basically
Zillia and Zillia 2
are of course a sequel
and they tried something
that's cool
you like that
even though the
gameplay overlaps
like so much
Tales 98
you know
just going backwards in time
makes it funny
even though the
gameplay overlaps
so much
when you really look at it
like Zillia and Vesperia
and Graces
they're all different
the characters are different
the story's different
they're different
you know
it's just
they are more rigid
in their formula
than the other series
their Final Fantasy
their Final Fantasy
well Christ
I wish
I now wish
Final Fantasy
the origin conformity
of an
overall quality
that
creates a budget
really badly
and I shouldn't get to talk
because the Persona games
3 and 4
and all the remakes
they are like the fucking
formula
they're the most
formulaic thing ever
they just
made the formula
way better
and they nail it
yeah
games of last generation
well exactly
exactly
exactly
I was about to say
one of the Atlas dudes
was talking to a guy
from Sony
and he said
you guys are gonna
really really like
what happens
what was it
what was a really good life
he said
the question was
is it Persona 5
and the guy goes
you're curious
aren't you
fans will be very happy
with what they see
on 11.24
get ready for
Catherine 2
everyone
but like
the sounds
of a
shit eating grin
yeah
that you're reading
you joke about Catherine 2
I don't think there's ever been
a more obvious
like engine test game
than Catherine 1
yeah
ever
that was
War Gods
yeah
just like
we don't know how this works
let's make a game
that requires no gameplay
yeah
and just
fucking engine
and you told me
someone would find a way
to make Catherine
and War Gods
the same thing
yeah
if you tell me
that the next Persona game
is gonna be like
current gen
or like Vita
or something
but the cut scenes
are gonna look like
Catherine
even half as good as Catherine
freaking out over here
yeah
I'm freaking out
dude it's gonna be so good
it's gonna be so good
why did you
be a PS2 game
no
it would be
if you want to go weird
the weird place would be
a PSP game
yeah
and that's possible
I could
I could
I could
no it's not
it's gonna be
PS3 and Vita
Catherine sold really well
didn't it
Catherine sold
quite well
over 200 something
Catherine sold
stupid well
for what it was
oh so it's really good
I know it broke a million
worldwide
it shifts to 200k plus
in the states
yeah and it's sold out
do you think if it
bombs super hard
would they just go back
to the PS2
no because
for John
no because it was a test game
and it was like whatever
the atlas's stuff
lives on its brands
sure
like SMT4
is the kind of game
where there's nothing on that box
but the title
in Japanese
yeah
and it sells better
cause it's in Japanese
on the
English box and you go
what's that
it's SMT4
yeah absolutely
and persona has gotten there
now
where it's like
like persona's bigger
it's out of the ronin
persona 4 the golden
out sold SMT4
that's nuts
I know
and it's a remake
that's nuts
I know
how is that nuts
SMT4's really good
no sure
but I mean
persona has a remake
persona has a franchise
overtook
the other
franchise
all because it came from
yeah but it's like
dark stalker's doing better
than Street Fighter
exactly
that's why it's weird
it's weird to me
I've played persona 4
like back in 2009
yeah
and then this thing
came out as a remake
in 2012
yeah
and then I'm like
oh yeah a remake
but to everyone else
it was like
oh I can finally play persona 4
people wouldn't shut the fuck up
about this for 4 years
so of course it sold super
right
cause they unhooked our
soldered ps2's
or did whatever
yeah
they just didn't play it
at the time
yeah I don't like
when I play persona 4
I didn't know anybody else
who's still in a fucking
ps2
well you guys
well you guys are weird
it's not original
yeah
like persona 4 original
like I'm looking
for numbers
and I'm kind of ballparking
around 450k
it was a
it was a really weird thing
when it came out
and the Vita was still
that was when the
the Vita was in its death spiral
well it's perpetually
in its death spiral
right but it was in a way
worse death spiral before
and it came out
and people were like
are you guys
gonna keep putting stuff
out on this
cause it's dead
and they're like
it's not dead to us
it's not dead at all
this game sold
yeah
it sold
they announced over 300k
in Japan recently
which was digital and physical
I would easily hazard
it was like 110
150
over here I think
well I was gonna say
I would easily hazard
that Asia, Europe and
America combined
over 150k
which instantly places it
above the original
persona 4
which is nuts
how sick would it be though
if they actually announced it
on everything
persona 5 on
on all
thing
I can't
not
possibly see it
on the X-Pone
yeah
I cannot see that
well no
but
I can see it
being like
a cross-play game
among like
every current Sony system
yeah
I personally
I think it's gonna be
one Sony console
probably PS3
and Vita
yeah that's what I think
that's what I think too
yeah
do you think a Wii U
fucking lockdown
would be possible
oh
lockdown
no way
no lockdown
but because of the SMT
I'm the thing who knows that
that's exactly what I'm thinking of
I think it's
the friendliness that they have
with Nintendo right now
I think it's within the realms of possibility
but the way it seems to
like
split is that
Ninty gets SMT
yeah
and Sony gets persona
yeah
I really
I agree
like it's one of those things where it's like
it could happen
but I really don't think it could happen
but persona seems to rely more
on like more power
where's the persona fan base
literally on the Vita
they're all on the Vita
literally on the PS3
they sold more on the Vita
than the PS2
literally the persona fan base
is on the Vita
I have a Vita
thanks for that
that's
no that's
I'm proving it's
three out of five people
on the entire persona fan base
wow
you're really good at that
but do Vita owners own persona
or do persona
like fans own
persona fans
okay
there you go
Linda, Dara, Chris
yeah
me, Liam
yeah
Vita looks cool
persona for Golden
well we're all buying Vitas
yeah
and I mean once again
it's not a question
since Golden outsold the original
thus there are more fans there
Golden outsold the Vita
it did
it did
the other bit
since you talked about
Final Fantasy earlier
just now was
yes
that one piece of news
Square Enix has discussed
letting Eidos work
on Final Fantasy
could be very
do it
do it
in quotations
let them do it
you should probably do it
I really hope they do it
let them
let them
it would be very exciting
if they did
give it to a team
made out of some people
that did
sex
because that came
was rad
and then
don't let
Toriyama touch it
yeah
that's all I want
guess what
since he's on the committee
he's on the committee
committee to excellence
of Final Fantasy
there's a bunch of comments
in the gaff thread
that were basically
just
wow
that thread is like
the most polar
opposite
people doing
what I just did
and people going
that's disgusting
it's such a 50-50
I'm like
there's the guys
that are going
it can only go up
there's a bunch of
those who are saying
yeah
it reminds me
of
the reactions
to Resident Evil 4
it is
yeah
in a way
Resident Evil 4
was shown off to be
more action-oriented
and people like me
before we played it
went
no
fuck that
and then
and then a lot of those
people said
oh, Resident Evil is
ruined forever
because it's different now
and then it was the best
game ever
when that was for us not
I remember being
wow, that's awesome
just because I was so sick
of RE0
exactly
exactly
and that's where I'm at
with Final Fantasy
I adore Final Fantasy
I would love to see those
when I read this
coming from
Crystal Dee
or something
making Final Fantasy
it was from OXM
that put this out there
and like
I think that could
breathe life
Crystal Dee
more like my dick
is so crystal hard
over this news
it could breathe life
from the franchise
but besides even
2016 at this point
like
there's so many side stories
in Final Fantasy
and like recently
how many Final Fantasy
spinoffs have we had
not really many
so why not just
make a big spinoff game
make it
like say
don't give them a mainline
number
have Eidos
make Final Fantasy
Mystic Quest 4
I was gonna say
yeah, just something
like even just do that
just, you know
and in Japan
we call Final Fantasy
USA 2
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I just got a big
American flag
yeah, yeah
great
wait, I forgot
who is making Final Fantasy
what was that
Grand
they're making that
Final Fantasy
they took concept art
from Final Fantasy
and submitted it
and like Japan
like this does look
nothing like Final Fantasy
FF Lady Liberty
oh right
yes, yes
Lady Liberty
my favorite fucking
stupid translation of a game
Resistance Burning Skies
in Japan
Resistance America's Last Stand
wow
and it's got a big
and on the cover
it's got like a starry sky
and like a red
was it the sun?
anyway, it looked like
an American flag
wow
behind the camera
these titles are so good
the best
we talked about Psycho Break
we talked about Psycho Break
we don't stop talking about Psycho Break
oh wait, we did talk about Psycho Break
but we've only talked
about Psycho Break
in two weeks from now
uh oh
yeah
so that statement
makes no sense
moving on
we'll talk about that later today
Super Mario 3D World
has no online
and here's why
because Shiggy says
eh
maybe in ten years
because Shiggy says
the same thing that he's felt about
all online forever
which is not right now
and you know what
we want you to have fun
in your living room
usually
I'm the first person to go
Nintendo
stop being a bunch of fucking idiots
put on
but for like a co-op Mario game
I totally agree with that
totally totally
like
if they pick the right one
they pick the right one
with Mario Kart and Smash
like totally have to
eventually have to
I'm gonna go out on a limb
and say that
if they've made a non-competitive
Mario 3D World type game
where you're connected with
a random person online
that'd be the worst
it would be the most garbage experience
ever
yeah it really would
could you imagine getting in
and you're playing it for the first time
and there's this pro who's with Toad
and he just fucking dashes
to the end of the level
how about dropping into a game
and eight seconds later
Stargate
what did I beat the level
how?
yeah
like it's gonna be close to
enough when we all play
oh yeah
yeah the single screen
I can only imagine
let alone three random people
that are all trying to troll each other
and somehow
somehow
managing to draw dicks
if there's no dick drawing function
I don't care
there's a field of coins
they collect the coins
in a specific manner
to sculpt out the balls
and put that on me first
dick spring shine
exactly
the ingenuity of dick artists
will never cease to exist
no no no in 30 years
the Guggenheim will just be
dick sealed
when I found out
that people were dick drawing
in the snow at the end of journey
yeah
I fucking lost it
yeah
it was so done
look at this huge journey to follow
I still love Duke Nukem
which was just like draw dicks
but yeah sure
but then you have this emotional journey
with this person
hey look
you leave the white message at the end
hey look it's a dog
there's a penis on the ground
like dicks are an object that must be drawn
in every medium possible
no medium will go undick
one day we'll draw a giant dick on the moon
and then we'll never not be able to see it
and then this will start to calm down
because no one will be able to beat
the giant dick drawn on the moon
it's the only way to win
drawing a dick on the moon
is the only way to win
yes
alright what's next
we gotta go back to space
we gotta go back to space
that's pretty good
man
you guys see that
you guys see that preview for the X-Bone dashboard
oh my god
okay so like ADD kids
this is the console for you
is it
because you get to see a guy go through
like all the features in about a minute and twenty seconds
my favorite bit is the bit where he's watching Pacific Rim
and he says X-Box play Titanfall
and his character is already in a game running
oh yeah
perfect
so that immediately establishes
this entire thing is completely fake
oh this was after images graduating class
no it's gonna play the game for you
so that's what I said earlier
X-Box one can play games when you're not
when you completely fake your UI introduction
that makes me super nervous about your actual UI
how many games are we out?
three
it's very clearly the video that they showed the investors
right
honestly I went to Future Shop a little while ago
you might remember
and I played Forza
which left a really good impression on me
because Forza's really good
Forza's apparently like the standout
dude it's so good
Trigger Rumble
the Trigger Rumble's impressive as fuck
then what happened?
I pressed the guide and it started making really loud noises
and then I'm like oh I better select Killer Instinct quick
and it just gave up and crashed
nice
what happened when you went back to the Future Shop the next week?
they were gone
the demo kiosk was what?
gone
but what I will say is
you destroyed X-Box
they had it back up and running in a minute
but what I will say is I saw a thread on the internet
where someone played it in another Future Shop
this is very close to us
on Gaff in fact
and I was like oh they just moved it there
so before the fucking Titan fall
Titans feet hit the ground
he ADD's over to Sleepy Hollow
and starts watching Sleepy Hollow
but he was just watching Pacific Rim
and now he's watching
oh and he forgot about that
in the middle of the other back
yeah he's watching Sleepy Hollow
they own the distribution
and then he snaps in Bing
and he Bing Sleepy Hollow on the side
while he's watching the movie
but then his friend calls him
and his friend's like you coming over
and he's like yeah
I am baffled at this
because they've been selling this concept for a while
on TV
and like I've been baffled that's like
they've positioned it as like look
you don't have to switch to your laptop
you don't have to switch to your phone
and my answer to this and most of the people
is like I turn off my phone
when I want to just sit and play
a bunch of multiplayer
or like who the fuck is this
that's watching a movie
and has to immediately jump into a multiplayer
like they are solving a problem
that I pretty sure doesn't exist
or at least it's super niche
the one thing
the one thing they have shown
and Sony showed it as well
they both decided this is a feature that matters
is you hit the power or whatever
and it suspends
and when you hit the power again
it comes right back
exactly like the Vita
like the PSP
and it's the Virtual Console
yeah right that's great
quit and quit out
that's awesome
all the rest of it
what
the problem solving
the sharing is cool
the problem solving of a problem that doesn't exist
is set for one setting
that I can imagine
which is the YouTube Party
right where
everyone's in the room
and everyone's like
oh let's watch something
okay
and then you after finish watching a movie
or playing a game
you just shout out whatever you want to do next
sure
like yes
that's the only use case
yeah
but like
I feel like
to build a whole system
around that idea
maybe not the best
and I feel like there are so many competing things
that do that better
and don't rely on like an IR blaster
or Kinect
to do them
I have my PC hooked up to my television
yeah
guess what
all of these features
are the
Thomas thing in the world to me
because like guess what
I can do this with my mouse
instead of Kinect
you know what I trust
way more
my fucking mouse
I really wanted you to say Kinect
one of the things
that I think is super dumb
is like okay right
you need Kinect to use voice commands on Xbox
sure
even though voice commands aren't as good as a mouse
on Sony you can just have a fucking mic plugged in
and use your mic
hey guys remember Socom 1
remember how voice commands
totally worked on that
remember early Xbox games
in which I think was Graw
where you could totally do that
with your fucking microphone
because it's software
it has nothing to do with Kinect
yeah
okay
I have a really good story about
like the release
do it
is that you see over there
next to my TV
you can see that there's a Kinect right there
and it's looking away
and it's looking away from us
but I was playing a game
or whatever
and for a video obviously
but
Liam turned it on its face
my girlfriend came over
and then she's like
she goes
why is your Kinect hooked up
and I go
I was doing a thing
I'm doing work
and she goes
no why is it
she hooked that up
I was playing a game
okay
for videos
and she goes
ah get that
and she looks
and she sees the prompt
that's always there
which is say
raise your hand
say Xbox
and she goes
Xbox
oh
it actually worked
and then
and then she goes
ah
would you make this to go away
I go
I don't know
I think you say
Xbox go home
I don't remember
she goes
Xbox go home
and she's like
this is shit
and I was looking at her
on the couch
and she's laying on the couch
and she was like
you know
she had the control in her hand
but I was like
man
this is what Microsoft wanted
they wanted a person
on the couch
just saying
Xbox
like
you know
phone
Xbox
whatever
play Sonic the Fighter
Xbox
Xbox Pizza Hut
and that's really
never gonna happen
and the sad thing
that is like
that
that concept
relies on one thing
the novelty
of talking to the thing
if it fails
once
that novelty is gone
forever
all it has to do
is fail once
and for you go
hey Xbox
Harry Potter
and start playing pornography
and you're like
that's not what I wanted
that's what I wanted
like
it connect new
that I want
my mom never
figured out how to text
so right now
she talks to her phone
and it turns it into text
sure
how does that work
it works
okay okay
is your mother
looking forward to buying
this phone
absolutely not
but
that's kind of my choice
I was like
no I can't wait to play Orchid
I really can't
it would be really awesome
but it's like
there's
a weird
they think their audience
is the people who are
not tech savvy enough
to love this
but their audience
is the people that are
crazy enough
to buy this
super expensive thing
right away
and hate this
it's weird
well
like I said
last week
about the
the stands in the store
it's all about
the flash and thunder
and boy
I see a lot of people
walking away from that
Forza demo saying
that was fucking great
totally
and Sony's not there
to pick it up with Drive Club
they're gonna sell a shit ton
is this Drive Club
sorry guys
sorry isn't Drive Club
officially delayed now
it is officially delayed
okay
now you told me
that when you were there
in that lineup
you saw people
taking selfies
with the console
yeah
they took a picture
with the screen like that
taking butt selfies
you're totally right
that being said
I forgot
some marketing group
put out
some data
that said
what are
what are people
looking at
on online retailers
what are they
considering to buy
they had Amazon
they had Best Buy
you know they had 5 retailers
and they
they turned it up
and 40
something percent of people
are only looking
at PS4
30
1%
48%
I think it was
PS4
31%
only looking at X-Bone
and the remainder
looking at both
well
there were some metrics
I would have never
thought of
the reverse of that
it's only a hard
core crowd
going on the internet
and looking at these consoles
mostly
and the reverse of that
is what system
comes out on
Blackfuckin Friday
and the reverse of that
is which system
costs
$100 less
but
people are going to be
in store
not knowledgeable
Xbox One
all over the place
and they're going to be
like that's an Xbox
I love America
and they're going to
pick one up
I
I think that
I'm super
it's going to sell really well
I'm super super
they're going to have a box
with like stars and
stripes on it
with a flag
with a mountain dew
just as America on it
I am so interested
they should sell
are you buying America
on Black Friday
what is wrong
with you if you're not
the ad is like
Xbox One
for America
yeah
I am so interested
in what those early numbers
are going to be
in North America only
because Japan
isn't launching
and it's going to be
Sonyland anyway
no it's tier two country
there's nothing
yeah
all the tier two countries
are going to go Sony
what I will say about Japan
is if Microsoft buys
the right and enough exclusives
they'll have at least
a good launch
yeah and then
trickle off to death
it all depends on
your
has been Sonyland forever
and X-Bone looks like
it's doing nothing
to stop that
the exclusives
don't have any
the FIFA bundle
is the most baffling thing
ever because buying the
PS4 and FIFA
is still cheaper
than the FIFA bundle
although I do believe
the FIFA bundle
is going to sway a bunch
of people who just
don't know any better
but it will trickle off
now more than ever
do I want to see
those Wal-Mart numbers
yeah
oh yeah
you're never going to see
of course
it's not a Wal-Mart
it's not a big
retailer or anything
Pat
what would you be worried
about that came out
exclusively on the X-Bone
oh the platinum game
yeah
the rumored platinum game
cause we'll buy X-Bones
cause I'll buy it
cause I'll fuck it
I'll buy the review
we were saying
we were saying
how
I did
so
no no no
no
you want to
you want to elaborate
on this rumor
they're at the sea boat
a while ago
said people are going to be
really really fucking mad
when they find out
where the next platinum
game is coming
yeah
and what
what matter
than the Wii U
matter than Wii U
I don't want
Kamiya to sabotage
the shit
at least when I
get a Wii U
I get Mario games
yeah
you get smash
I do like
you get monolith nowadays
right
I don't care
about killer instinct
Gears of War is gone
and I don't care
about Halo
so
I think what he means
is that like
what system
has the still the most
ire against it
generally
yeah
right
it's pretty evident
he meant
Xbox
and when we were
talking about this earlier
is that Microsoft
on every
like
Xbox
Xbox One
and
whatever
Xbox
oh gee
Xbox 360
or a techmo
or a toky
whatever
oh shit
and they're like
if an American
like giant
is going
what
Japanese developers
should we have
make something
platinum is the flavor of the day
five
Tales of Vesperia
was the most
like blatant one this time
because Microsoft
will ignore Japan
entirely
except for one
just to see
if they can get
any steam
and if no
we'll fuck it
whatever
who cares
but they
erect
a
erect
they did erect
guys
hey guys
he said erect
they did erect
a Japanese office
where they are going to
be making Japanese games
with people from the
Japanese game
supposedly
so they
at least
no they did
and they're making
no I mean
supposedly in
as in like
supposedly those games
will come out
well they will
and be good
well they
I mean
they
I have no faith
missed
Blue Dragon
missed walker
there's a bunch
yeah
no that was like
a big like initiative
let's try this
a home run
and a swing and a miss
yeah
well like
you know they're going to give it
another go
and I mean
Idolmaster
succeeded until Namco
was like
well we could just go
multi-plat
because they're not paying us
anymore
but Idolmaster
was a big boon
for them for a little while
I wanted to like
Blue Dragon
I also wanted to like
Blue Dragon
play your place like years ago
and you showed up
like an hour late
to your own place
and I had to
watch your
weird roommate
play Blue Dragon
was it emotions?
it was of course it was emotions
it was not emotions
another weird roommate
play Blue Dragon
yeah
for like an hour
and I've never been more depressed
in my life
I was trying to look at my phone
because the game
is like
remember Chrono Trigger
and you go
yeah it's way better
than Blue Dragon
I bought Blue Dragon
for like
two dollars at a staples
you got ripped
and
two dollars whatever
and I
wow it's staples
it's like the lowest tier
of where to possibly buy a game
I know
I found it for two bucks
anyway
I brought it to my
I brought it to my dad's place
and I was like
I was there with my little brother
I'm like you're gonna love this game
it's good to
you're gonna enjoy it
like I enjoy breath of fire
and then an hour in
I ejected it
I'm like
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I'm sorry that this was the introduction
yeah
I'm so sorry
Liam Jr
please forget about that
shout out to the games
that you can buy
in your pocket
yeah
that always feels good
and it's buy on a commando
shout outs to you
you deserved 60
but you got like
15
wait what did you pay
for Lynx
crossbow training
I was about to say
you gave me Lynx
crossbow training
it was 98 cents
it was 10% off
if you had an edge card
so I got it for like
86
I thought I was the king
of that
where I found
WWE
SmackDown vs. Raw
for in 2009
for a dollar 36
I thought I was
the king for that
the college we went to
the department store
right next door
that had a mountain of
DK bongos
yeah
for the Bucks
how many did you buy
exactly
I bought one
speaking of awesome controllers
that we bought at
local drawing stores
Liam and I
totally bought
DualShock 4s
yeah
they're fucking great
they're really good
and if you do
enough bullshit
you can get them
working on PC
oh do you got it now
if you do enough bullshit
you can get them
working on 360s
and PS3s
did you see the video
what it's my
it's my phone cable
ah fuck you
so this dude has a video
of him using
like three things
basically
yeah
software and hardware
to get it running on a 360
on PC
on PC
you can do it
on PC
you can do it
all software
and you got to use
like an X input
wrapper
and it's a total pain
in the ass
but I got it
working with
Borderlands
and that was
a good example
because this is a
first person shooter
yeah
the DualShock 3
is fucking terrible for
well
let's see
let's see how it plays
plays so good
the DualShock 4
is so good
yeah
I love it
there you go
ah
that's all I have to say
yeah
it's really really good
controller
I wish we could contrast this
with your insanity
from two weeks ago
oh my god
this was that
or maybe it was three weeks
ago
one week ago
the X input
the X input thing
oh yeah
if DualShock 4
doesn't have X input
it is the failure
of a game design
no it's failure for PC stuff
but
there are smart people
making bullshit
work around
of course
to make it go
but that's
at the time I said
there's ways
there's always ways
yeah but it's frustrating
if someone made a
bullshit work
it's worthless
it's worthless
I want it to just
go
okay
is that so wrong
it'll go in the future though
for sure
if you want things to
just go
then you don't buy a PC
and do PC
the internals
that's the internal struggle
of my life
but it'll
just go for all
future games
yeah
this thing will
absolutely be supported
on almost all PC games
going for it
you'll have Xbox 360
support
and PS4 support
because it actually
works when you plug it in
I like the DualShock 3
no bullshit
you guys
catch the
moving along
the
collector's edition
for adventure time
no
okay so
they released a picture
they released a picture of it
and it's like
well fuck
is it a full body pillow
of Marceline
no damn
no is it a full body pillow
of Fiona
no
is it a full body pillow
of lumpy space princess
because then
I'm in
are you
got it under your system
you guys are good
it's a BMO
oh yeah
that's cool
what is
the case
it's a big
it's a BMO
you remember the case
you got adventure time
special edition
it's that
but BMO
but it's BMO
it's the box
it's a special hard case
and then you get
you have arms and legs
all your bullshit in it
and you get
does it have voice
does it have BMO's voice
does it have BMO's voice
is it just actually BMO
no it's not
it's actually BMO
don't tell them
why
I want it to be BMO
and I want her to do BMO chop
and say
oh yeah
hey guys
come play my video game
did you see
there's that guy that had
the
the iPod sleeve
that you put over your
iPad rather
and it puts a BMO case
over your iPad
with arms and legs
and an app
it goes face
no that was
that was the April Fool's show
it was the April Fool's thing
it's not real
I know
and you're like
I hate you thinky
it was thinky
that's not the guy
so good
I'm so best
for anyone who doesn't know
there's a really great BMO app
on iTunes
and it's free
and it does tons of bullshit
and it has a BMO sound board on it
of course it does
it does
it's great
but yeah
it comes with a
you know
a little collector's book
I love BMO
it's like artbook
slash fun time
adventure book
interactive elements
nothing
my brain is just going
I love BMO
yeah
I hope that game
doesn't suck
yeah
it looks a lot better
that first game
was pretty good though
it was
we all agree
that it was pretty good
so is that for
every SKU
nah
I don't know
I bet you
I bet you
it won't be for the
PC version
the picture I saw
was for the 3DS one
so
it comes out for
PS3
360
3DS
I think Vita
I can't remember
PC as well I think
everything
not Vita
no
that's why I'm getting
the Wii U version
oh
well
cause we could do a video
with it
we all play multiplayer
whenever we finish
a segment
talking about the Vita
or the Wii U
we all just go
oh
cause it is a shame
come on God
eater 2
save the Vita
oh
it looks so good
you guys see the sales
sales numbers on Pokemon
quite high
I bet they're pretty good
yeah
how good are they
they broke
4 million
in the first week
yep
which is crazy
go nuts
hey man
everyone's coming back
but
the second week
they dropped off
more than
black and white did
okay
it's
under
under 500k
so
I feel like
it was just this rush
to an explosion
and there's
Pokemonia
run and war
Pokemon fever
just to set this up
a game
to surpass a million
on the second week
and that was
Dragon Quest 7
on PS1
and that's
Dragon Quest
only game to ever sell
a million
on second week
we're talking about Japan
or Worldwide
Japan
okay
wait
sorry
what?
no
Japan
the 4 million
figure
was
Worldwide
oh yeah
but the second week
dropped by 70%
wasn't that
just Japan
75%
still steep
whereas black and white
dropped by 70%
so the difference
isn't
like
there's a tangible
difference there
it's not
immense
I won't say it's statistical
noise
it's certainly
tens of thousands
of unity
I think
that's the kind of data
you see
when
everyone in the market
knows what the
product is
it's not like
gravity
where people
didn't know
about gravity
there's no word of mouth
exists about Pokemon
is somebody you know
got Pokemon
and you say
hey how's Pokemon
they say it's good
yes
day one
everybody
yeah
so like my take on it
is
it's different from
black and white
because
less kids
are playing it
more people who can
actually buy it
thus more people
buy it on the first week
and then kind of
tapers off
because everyone
already bought it
or
it's just kind of
having some competition
issues with
it's also
killing it
the Monster Hunter 4
is still selling out
yeah
Pokemon didn't quite
sell out
people like
Monster Hunter
sold out the second shipment
I think sold out the third shipment
I want to say Nintendo
probably shipped more
Pokemon than Capcom shipped
more
definitely definitely
Monster Hunter out
here
Monster up
well it's gonna come
just be patient
oh wait
what was that
I hope it comes to the
Wii U
and let's
segment the same way
we always do
oh
you idiots
that Capcom
put out a thing
I'm sure you've
just seen it
it was like
500,000
Monster Hunter for the Wii U
did super well
did over 500,000
wow
which is
so much more than
everything else
I think it's the most successful
North American
Monster Hunter ever
maybe a
no it is
totally
incredibly
it's
plainly
it was
500k
moral
surprise
life in that series
surprise
yeah
500k world one
okay cause it sold
300 and something in Japan
yeah
right so break that down
it's still good enough
America
average 90k
that's
it's still really good
don't misunderstand here
because I remember
I remember for sure
Capcom said
like months and months after
TRI came out on the Wii
they said
we sold
500,000 copies
in North America
right
this is the most
successful Monster Hunter
we've ever launched
we've ever had
North America
I remember that
cause I remember
the fact checking
will ruin this podcast
do not fact check
do not fact check
let us be wrong
there you go
and be called out later
I think it was 500k
worldwide
which is still super good
the point is
they put out a statement
said yo guys
did actually super good
and they put that
statement out
in English as well
yeah
I think
I think we're gonna
see four on the Wii
I hope
we fucking do
cause I
hate
playing Monster Hunter
on handhelds
and I sure
is gonna hate it
anyone care about
UK sales figures
no
cause the UK
see
the UK
like game
business is
totally wrong
that's why they get
good PS Plus
Batman just
GTA
everything is
wow
wow
totally fucked in game
what is going on
in the UK
UK was the bats
that's what's happening
the UK sales
have always been
like the most
baffling
they're so weird
well cause they always count
UK and then they have
the European
they break out all
and then you're like
I don't know what these numbers
mean
what country bought
what
they go I don't know
what is this region even
did you guys sell it to
Italy
no not this time
why not
don't ask questions
weren't you
in charge of that
what
I really bought tons of
Marlowe Briggs
how is that even possible
why
why
why
why
because
outside of revengeance
it's the best
character
I had potato
I just want to hug him
Briggs O'Donnell
this is for me
Briggs O'Donnell
it's good
Briggs O'Malley
Briggs O'Potata
there
there
there
there I went for it
Briggs McGillicuddy
McCallahan
thank you
send your emails
to woolly
if you are
Irish and offended
by that statement
amen
you said something really
offensive to Irish people
and remember me
but everyone was like
oh I'm Irish
and that was hilarious
Irish and the Italians
they don't care
you can't
you can't offend the
Irish people
no but they like
besides I get a free pass
because I'm gingerly
because you look like Irish
like
remember that story
some black dudes were like
are you Irish
and you were like
no and they're like
get out of here
yeah that was weird
it's like the Scotland's
ruined Scotland right
like
who cares
what's that
gross keeper
woolly thing
goes oh I hate the Scots
they ruined Scotland
what
what
what
a septtories bunch
you just
made yourself
an enemy for life
objections
and
all
amen
you trace us back
far enough
in my timeline
I told you this
you're not Scottish man
what
you're going to
screw things
my mom comes running
Phil
my name's Liam
you go one
way in the family
tree
you hit the80
the other way
you get the boat
woah
what do you want
move on
woah
hey Pat
what's the biggest
what's the biggest game
on your potato
what's the biggest game
on your computer right now
on my computer right now
what's the big
file size
ah Guild Wars 2
how big is it
it's like 55 gigs I think
ooh
okay
but that's an MMO
yeah
what's the biggest
non MMO game
like
Max Payne
no
the rockstar games
are all disgusting
35 gigs
30 gigs
the average
around like 12 gigs
how would you feel
if you had to download
I'm glad
290 gigs
I
would not
especially
if I only had a
500 gig hard drive
which is actually
only a 460 gig hard drive
to put it on
yeah
especially if it's
Killzone Shadowfall
that's correct
I am getting Killzone Shadowfall
sorry what's the
290 gigs for you
so Killzone
is actually
40 gigs
right now
okay
it was going
to be
290 gigs
no
prior to
and then
no they
they were making the game
and there's a
how big is the game
it's 290 gigs
they said 180 actually
oh
how big is the game
it's too big
we should probably
put someone on that
yeah
it was the bit where
they said oh
optimization
exactly
which is a regular
part of game development
I don't think there was ever
a bit where they said
here's the deal
it used to be
how do we
not
terms of space
how do we get the
data to the best
parts of the disc
right
so you would see games
that are like
800 megabytes
filled to the brim
with junk data
so that the data
would be on the outside
of the disc
right
now
that optimization time
is like dude
this game's like 300 gigs
no one's going to buy that
we can
our blu-ray won't fit that
the blu-rays won't do it
fix it
do it it's hard
do a layer
fix it
do a layer
I think the do a layer of
blu-rays are 100 gigs
do a layer
you couldn't even do that
no exactly
you have to
what are your textures doing
everything
everything
at that point
yeah
if you zoom in
they solve the
to be fair though
to be fair though
Battlefield 3
which is I think
the closest game
to what a next-gen
game would be
is like 35 gigs
with all the stuff
well
because the text
it's just texture quality
you want texture quality
for 1080p
well
fuck
well PC games
have been doing this
for a while
like Max Payne
I think was 37
like they've been
really getting up there
don't don't bring in
Rockstar games
I just did
Rockstar games are
I just done it
Rockstar games
are a lot like
some Lucas Arts games
in that they
fucking include
every fucking
localized version
together
yeah
and instead of having
an audio track
they have
eight versions
of the same cut scene
unlimited internet
plan
also unlimited hard drive
but
500 gigs
should manage
a good
bunch of games
it'll manage
that's what
they're operating
it will last
for people like us
right up until
the ps4 slim
comes out
with a 2TB drive
yeah
that's
what's
gonna happen
I'm looking
like my
my 360 elite
has what
250 right
yeah
I'm looking at it
four gigs left
yeah
and we're at
what year of the
360
now hold on
think of how
fucked up it would have been
had you kept
your
early 360
that had 20 gigs
right
and it only had 13
really
when you hit terabytes
like the performance
drop
is gonna fucking
suck
that's fine
it's fine
that's why all games
have to be installed
you know
even accessing
the drive of that size
is fucking
no no no
it doesn't go up
it's
it's 300ish
megabytes a second
it's
that it's way faster
than the disc
I was gonna say there's
issues on ps3
when you go above that
size but on ps4
like they've cleaned
a lot of that out
and you can go higher
and you no longer
you no longer have to
theoretically on paper
you never have to keep
not according to
Mark Cerny
dude I have a pc
it's the same fucking thing
it is
it's not a problem
okay
I have my steam games
installed to a 3TB
hard drive
I have problems
and when its performance
drops it's what
4 seconds of loading
yeah
it's not so bad
and guess what
SSDs in
products
are like
a decade away
so shut up
yeah
whether SSDs
in your video game systems
are a good thing or not
yeah
because you rewrite
on those enough
and you kill them
yeah
SSDs will have to
get a lot better first
I would have assumed
that that's just
where we're going
naturally
I mean eventually
the next
consoles
will have hybrid
SSD
and HDD
they have to
yeah
that's just where it's going
but if you
rewrite enough on those things
you just massacre
yeah
whereas your standard HDD
will last like
fucking 10 years
which is why a lot of people
just put their OS on
my OS is
the only thing on
my SSD right now
is my
work software
for like
capturing video
and editing video
windows
that's it
everything else
that's why
all my programs
are on eDrive
all my footage
is on eDrive
and then I have two
externals
that are both
two terabytes
and three terabytes
for
media
and porn
media
and porn
separate
yeah
no
it's small
I think I'm going to
opt for a one
terabyte
fairly soon into
its life cycle
I'm sure that
the 500 gigs
will do me just
fine
up until
the point where
there's a slim
consumer horn by the slim
it could happen
because like
the games that are
this size
are either
the one
are games like
Battlefield or Call of Duty
which is you're going to
have one
and you're going to
have it all year
and then you're going to
replace it with next years
or games like
AC4
which you're going to
beat
and then delete
and feel nothing for
yeah
when it's going to get
fucked up and weird
is when
especially for me and
Woolly
fighting games
are never going to
leave
I like fighting games
I did several series
about fighting games
but
but
but woolly
and I
love to keep every
fighting game
in a playable format
all installed
all the temper
I'm never going to
I'm never going to
uninstall
guilty gear
XR
yeah
of course
maybe when
super reload
XR
when K-Web 13
came out
12 fucking
kicked the
kick
hopefully there will be
more vanilla
why would you keep
vanilla
exactly
but
sometimes you want to
see things
but like
I'd want to keep
Street Fighter
King of Fighters
Guilty Gear
Tekken
Persona
Persona Fighter
Injustice
back those games
would fill up
the entire starting
hard drive
but it'll be a couple
years before that
situation happens
and then I will
have a bigger hard drive
I'm interested to see
how big the PS4
Injustice is going to be
at launch
yeah
look
your fighting games
and your character action
games will be installed
and everything else
you play off the cloud
oh
no
now I'll have
all my fighting games
installed
all my character action
games installed
the one first person
shooter multiplayer
game I'm playing
installed
and the three
single player
games I'm playing
installed
and a bunch of
indie shit
well I think
indie games
should all be
indie games
shouldn't really
go down to
dollars
equal textures
in small ways
in real life
because that is
the most tangible
like
growth
in file size
Matt and I were playing
Dementium 2
which the guy said
what's the
digital tribe games
digital tribe games
sent us over
Dementium 2
preview build
it's going to come out
in December
it's clearly
used to be a DS game
but because
they put new textures
on it
it looks super good
wow awesome
and like
he was talking about
System Shock during it
remember when System Shock 2
got that texture pack
that made System
Shock 2 go from looking
like a total piece of shit
to like almost
current gen game
like model architecture
is tiny
texture quality
is huge
I'm interested
like does it look
at all like
it looks
what it used to
it looks like
a forgotten game
from 1995
like an old
horror game
that time just
forgot
I want to say 95
wait no
Half Life came out
in 98
so 99
99
and it looks like
a forgotten horror game
from that era
ok
and
oh we found it
and it's like
got good textures
and it runs at
like
at some point
at one point
my computer said
it was running at
14,000 frames
14,000 frames per second
14,000
but it usually
averages between
4 and
800 frames a second
so pretty alright
performance
that's pretty good
like the build
they sent us
has a
FPS
counter that's
permanently locked
in the screen
and I'm like
I wonder why they put that there
not bad
textures guys
cool
it's been a which
because as you brought up
dementia
any chance you saw
the
Conan O'Brien's
own personal
shitstorm of scary
no I did
yeah
Clueless Gamer
with scary games
Clueless Gamer
I thought she was
seen on YouTube
it's like millions of views
people relate to it
that's
exactly like
Conan's team
is so smart
they saw us
and like
what he's gonna do
then there's like
the older crowd
that's like that
that are watching Conan
that watch Conan
they're like
all these crazy video games
these kids are playing
that's what I would say
it's on that bullshit
because Jimmy Fallon
does like we things
from time to time
he does
he will do
any
and he knows
video games
yes
but I'm saying
but he likes them
he likes them
but I saw those
but I mean
I mean compared to Conan
sure but I saw this page
of things that Jimmy's
Fallon has said
that are completely wrong
oh my god
he called the PlayStation
something else
well we all know that guy
yeah
but like
I mean like
I think it started with
Wii Sports was like
the first thing he did
game wise
and
well
everyone did
in all fairness
every public access
thing to
CTV
the biggest networks in the world
all had
a day when that was coming
out
Clueless Gamer because
I think he
did he play RE5
at one point
no RE6
RE6
seeing somebody who's not
into games
playing RE6
and like I'm seeing like
how does this
like how to
what is this like
because I'm totally removed
from this right
we're all removed
we know too much
and so these
that's how people react to it
and you're like
yeah
oh
that's
really
the game mechanic
that we've seen for years
he's not familiar
he's just like
why would that happen
and then you go
wait a second
why would that happen
just because it's happened
a hundred times before
yeah
Clueless Gamer man
very interesting
if it goes on for long enough
then he's gonna be like
oh yeah
the RE6
that dumb
like thumbs up animation
and that was in this game now
or whatever
it goes on for super long
that's the one thing
RE6 gave to the industry
big dumb thumbs up animation
I love this animation
and also
brilliant for not actually
reviewing the game
oh yeah
just straight up going
like
it gets a brrrr
he's reviewing himself
right
right
right
how do I feel about this
oh yes
anyway
you brought up
fighting games on the hard drive
and stuff
and I just said like
well let's move right into
fighting games
let's do it
so
hey
eat your pie
your crow pie
we're not there yet
eat it
we're not there yet
oh
I'm pulling it out right now
oh it's in the oven
it's in the oven
first
let's sprinkle some stuff on it
first
that and I have to talk about
the fighter within
the subtitle being
what is this I don't even
because you see the
trailer for this thing
and you're like
there are characters
so there's two things with this
and I was thinking about this earlier today
and
if people recall me
and Pat played a game
like a year or two ago
called Rise and Nightmare
we did play that
which
if it had used a controller
at the very least
would be interesting
oh we were about
or a move
at the very least
I would have loved
to do a full
like let's play this
and let's check it out
whatever
because it's this fucking
super weird game
and it's made by
the original House of the Dead team
whoa really
yeah
and if you have one
connect game that's not on rails
yeah
you can move around
you can move around
and like as we were playing it
we went through this thing
like this game's so fucking weird
aw man
oh my shit
yeah
so the fighter within
is like
you look at it
you're like this looks
like a fighting game
there's characters
there's moves
a super American fighting game
yeah
it looks like
it's a fighting game
and not UFC
yeah
it looks like
tau fang
sure
but it still looks
good
like visual ear
whatever
there's some stuff going on
but then you just think back
like
this is going to be unplayable
and then
you see that
demo
some dudes house
apparently
yeah
of two guys playing
the fighter within
and boy is it exactly
what you think it is
it is dudes just
flailing around
and every now and then
isn't it a duck
yeah
and there's a guy ducks
and like
a second and a half later
the character ducks
and every now and then
they do a big hit
and it goes into a cut scene
which is the entirety
of those trailers
yeah
super pathetic
super sad
it's disappointing
because I agree
you look at it
and you're like
this could have
and the money went into
the textures
and the money went into
and the animation
all the things that needed
to be there
and the character designs
to some degree
I saw a Muay Thai guy
that's a Muay Thai guy
character designs are totally
respectable
just like
everything's there
except the controller
stop using
connect for video games
please
stop using connect for
anything that's
like a fighting game
like don't even
approach it
if you can trade off
the connect being there
for games
or like staring at
my snack buying habits
then watch my snacks
and think of a single
skill based game
that benefits from connect
even
even
fucking
what's it called
dance central
if they made
if they made a game
as a skill based game
it does not benefit
as funsies
yeah
but skill based
no
if they made a game
where you like
you yell at children
and like
the children get sad
depending how hard
you yell at them
I could see
the connect being
why do you need a connect
and not a mic
exactly
exactly
there's a skill
in scaring kids
with your yell
time to tears
S-Shrank
achievements pop up
he is now
mentally damaged
because hey about that
expo and UI
we forgot to talk about it
you can change the color
of the achievement prompt
well you can change
the color of everything
in fact you can't
pick and choose the
achievement prompt
so if you like
the red achievement prompt
fuck you you got
an ugly red dashboard too
okay
pick whatever you want
make it look like a
ps4
what do you think
anything else for fighting
games going on
yeah so
I was wondering
yeah so
let me just go get
let me just go to the oven
and just pull out
this pie over here
a lot of crows in that pie
a lot of crows in that pie
they're alive
and squawking
double ultras
are not only confirmed
but they're
super super like
viable
because
they are viable
with the exact same thing
as the rumor
that you said was impossible
yeah
and here's
when I saw
it's literally the
complete opposite
of what you said
it's baffling that
it was 100% opposite
okay so here's
I expected it to be like
double ultras
and then you'd be kind of
right because of the
damage thing
but no you were
totally wrong
it's amazing
how wrong you were
I was thoroughly wrong
so
here's the thing
when you see the video
you're so wrong
when you see the video
right
you can basically
see that
this is very viable
because the ultras
do nothing
they do no damage
well which is what they said
they said 66 damage
less
percent damage
less than 66
a 66 damage
percent
sorry
66 percent reduction
was the original rumor
a full damage
ultra
is now
less powerful than
a half damage
ultra
or a solid jump in
some special moves
you get a solid jump in
heart attack
and like you can go into
a string
but with two ultras
you're guaranteed to hit
one of them
it's options
it's about options
and if with red focus
there'll be a lot more
situations where you can
turn super meter
into ultra meter
yeah
so
the thing is
oh boy
I didn't even think of that
Jesus
that's a lot of ultra meter
when you're
you're as well focusing
super how much ultra is that
you eat a whole combo
yeah
you can have like
most of your bar
go all the way up
so you can probably use
those two ultras more often
right
so the thing with this
is that you
have a give and take system
where you're
building more ultra
in this one manner
and then you're also
spending more in another way
yeah
of course matchups
are still going to change
oh yeah
and it's going to get
crazy hard
to deal with dudes
like geef and stuff
so just ignore matchups
but any
really good pokers
like anyone like
Kami who can do
like
crouching forward
into cannon drill
or any
you can
red focus
all that shit
it'd be even
and the fact that
you're going to start getting
this
theoretically
will be a thing
right
wait
like
they're cancelable
yeah
but it's like
you start off with no
ultra
yeah
but two bars
and super
you do the
red focus
you lose your
bars
and you get
a crump
enough meter
to do
an FBADC
in the ultra
absolutely
and you crumple them
and then you do
like
it's going to be
this comeback
oh for sure
it's going to be the best
this game looks amazing
again
yeah
so
you must be happy
considering you play
Blanca
yes
and Blanca balls break
they do
so this is what's
this is just going on too
is
you know
some top players
have weighed in
on what their thoughts are
that was good
what
they're
talking about
a can
you did a good segue
the top players
have weighed in
on what their thoughts are
the options opened up
and stuff
um
and
uh
uh
fuck what I was going to say
the
the shit
that's blowing my mind
and is probably going to blow yours
because you probably
haven't heard about this yet
is today
Ono came out
and said
there's a
third
mechanic
there's more guys
we're not even
going to tell you about
and it's going to be
equally as drastic
as the first two
I bet you
the third mechanic
is deeply rooted into
how the fifth character plays
ah
oh
I was just going to say
it's gems
it's
ruin the whole thing
ruin the whole thing
it's not gems
of course man
I'm sure
I don't think
I don't think street fighters
are the kind of game
where a system mechanic
would benefit
I don't know
but I mean they're going to
turn it off with this game
probably it's going to be
super good
that's fucking
that is Ono
just sliding on stage
and like
break dancing
doing a cartwheel
and then laughing
and just shitting
while he's doing
hitting the crowd
in a perfect 360
here's
what I don't
want it to be
I don't want it to be
delayed wakeup
I don't want
delayed wakeup
like, I know
it's important
but it's boring
there it looked
delayed wakeup
delay wakeup
not a good idea
either
because setups
are a bit
then it
makes the whole thing
super defense focus
what I want it to be
is guard crush
guard crush is
what everybody
is thinking
because they said
we're gonna make the game
more offensive
and then they gave us
two new system mechanics
that make the game
more defensive
so like
especially considering
like the only thing
I can think of
in my brain
that can
make the game
offensive with this
is with guard crush
and it's variable
guard crush
between characters
yeah
like some characters
well just like stun
yeah
like stun
just like
I don't know
third strike
that's a game
of it
hmm
variable guard crush
I'm good with either
all I know about that
I want fucking
guard crush so bad
universal
Street Fighter 4
would become
a
unrecognizably different game
if they had a guard crush
yes
oh yes
and I want to
play that game
but just as quickly
say like
the ramifications of
character specific
guard crush
yeah you're right
it's
I play
it's a
fucking
rock being thrown
I play
I play
I play
so I'd be
yeah
no
you can't
but no
that third thing
being guard crush
would be a very welcome
change
it would instantly get me back
because down back
suddenly is not
down back
at the same time
I feel like
characters like
like
dulcim
almost need more
meter
guard crush meter
that is to say
dulcim's fine
well
because they get beat up on
and they're guarding all the time
I feel like they almost need
a movie about a huge
disadvantage
if you're playing sim
properly
you're poking
no no
of course
without a doubt
but you follow
what I mean right
there are points
where sim gets in a corner
and you're like
well
here's what changes
even more than that
is honda
is
dictator
is
blanka
charge characters
that are holding down back
of course
are suddenly gonna
have to fucking
go shit
I'm in trouble
I can absorb both hits
you know
like that's what's gonna happen
I am certain
that we will get
a version
2014
of this
and I will be excited for it
and I hope
let's fix all the mistakes
because I hope
we get
version 2014
because I hope
these system changes
are so dramatic
that the game
just breaks
that the game
just goes
like
the earth
opens up
and
match up
start flying out of hell
and
people go
I don't know what this game is anymore
yeah
I want to go back to that
yeah
and jay won
said
people are just gonna have to get better
yeah
you're just gonna have to do things
like deliberately
do your guard breaking move
yeah
you know and not
focus breaking
that's the thing that's the most exciting
because people don't really
tend to throw those out
a lot
sometimes you get lucky
doing a two hit move
exactly
oh yeah
well fuck it
when I heard about the third thing
right
what this effectively does
is just
hey we can just
spin our wheels on this
since we have no more resources
to make any more fighting games
so let's
so hold that thought
so let's make
this game
into a new
fighting game
all together
and have all the characters
if hugo can
fucking do
a 720
and his air grab
yeah
oh my god
yeah
nobody can see it
but I'm flailing my arms around
because I'm so happy
oh my god
yeah
there are so many grapplers
there's so many grapplers
yeah there is
fucking
I love grapplers so much
what happens if the fifth
character is a grappler
I don't pee
what happiness
oh wow
um
no I can't wait for her con
are you gonna jump
are you gonna jump
no you're not
yeah it's
it's death
between jump and grab
also red
also
fucking sliding
focus
red sliding
oil focus
dude
um
so the reason why
okay
ultra stream predator force
gonna be like fast
super
you just start sliding
towards him in a focus
oh and
like what are you
gonna do
and for anybody
who's
listening
rage quit
and plays fighting games
on pc
and it's like
it'll be steamworks
cause games for windows
live is gone
so
I'll be getting
SF4 on
steam
sure
the reason why
we told you to hold
your jimmies little buster
is because
capcom
has announced
that they are
working on a new
fighting game
so then why the hell did ono
say there's no more
resources to make fighting
cause he lies
he said there's no resources
to make an hd fighter
because
textures are expensive
remember
memento
remember when he writes
don't believe
don't believe lies
that was ono space
that's true
that's true
I thought it was David cage
whatever
there's a lot of people on that
the platform is undecided
and development
is in the preparation stages
however
it sounds like
when he says new fighter
he means
not an ip that has come before
that is interesting
but what I mean to say
is that it's still a jump
whatever they're making
it's going to take forever
so they have to have something
yeah
to plan
and all these changes
making a brand new fighting
in france
it takes like two three years
and if it doesn't succeed
you just blue two or three years
what's happening right now
is basically
ackee man is just doodling some shit
and they're just looking over his shoulder
they'd probably be ikeena
ackee man doesn't work for capcom
I'd be like wow
they don't work for capcom either
and they look over
it's ikeeno
ikeeno is the main doinger
ikeno is the main
they look over
ackee man and ikeeno
and they're like
wow
that's even better than skullomania
I didn't think that was possible
that's our hero
that's our hero character
you go to a rica
they show a big statue
of skullomania
and the entrance
with a real cape
with a real cape
and like a fan
that comes from nowhere
and you're like where's the fan
how's it blowing
it's not a statue
it's just a guy
they just hire a man
to stand at the skullomania
oh skullomania is so cool
what else is going on with a rica
nothing
nothing
um yeah
so that
they're making a new fighter guys
and i would love
yeah and you know what
the prospect of like the 2018
street fighter 5
or even the hd4 to 4
sure
whatever
hd4 to 4 is coming to the bc
sure
and something slick
is going to be coming
wait sorry hd4 to 4
yeah
he means
because the terminology of hd
is becoming
incredibly weird
we don't have a thing yet
so he means ps4
expo version of that
well whenever that happens
because of course that was the point
he said we don't have a cash
watch it be a fucking
like psn slash xbla game
sure
sure
all of it
for 20 bucks
all my money
yeah
no 20 bucks of your money
which is worth it
oh absolutely
we've already dumped
like a thousand dollars
in the street fighter
especially since now
you can apparently
use anything on an x bone
yes
say what
because the
dudes plugged in
a madcatch 360 stick
into the killer instinct
demo booth
worse
and it fucking works
and once
people started
fucking with dual shocks
and realizing
that you can plug a dual shock 4
and like fucking anything
the likelihood
of a dual shock 3
working on a ps4
is super likely
so now that the cat
is out of the bag
and running for its life
I feel really good
about buying all those
arcade sticks
this means
this means
that if on day one
I can plug my canva in
no no no
you gotta get the inverse
of this story
stop what
if on day one
it suddenly doesn't work
because they flipped the switch
it's because they caught
the cat
and cut its head off
oh
I'm worried about my cat
where's your cat
making those
and making those
lose
that's such a huge pussy
you see what I did there
so what the fuck
and then you put it back
in the bag
we're worrying about the cat
ruining everything
and now we're yelling at the cat
for not coming out
where are you cat
what's his name
what
we'll see
we'll let the fans decide
is it chogo
it's not chogo
if you guys think
that we should name
the cat chogo
send in an email
to the podcast
people of ardy's
later
and have every word
in the email
be chogo
people of ardy's
send xelotath
people of ardy's
send
it's not a name
luca
let's not get into kevin
alright
and the last thing
is hey
guess who's confirmed
for ex-herd
not biking
you know right
what they
and they
you know
oh yeah
foust confirmed
foust is sick though
how can you
not be hyped about foust
yeah foust
dude like
biking's coming
foust is the character
that I saw
like the first time
I ever saw
guilty gear
but what the fuck
it's this
there were like
there are
they were at least
they were there
well abba
you know it wasn't that trailer
yeah well that's
quick shot
quick shot
how am I feeling
johnny's not gonna be in it
no johnny's gonna be in it
why
I don't know
but I forgot cause
maize in it
why would johnny
like it's
guilty gear's a weird series
cause you go
well who's not
gonna be in it
and somebody says
somebody can go
no tons of people
like that character
like judgment
the only
the only character
judgment or do you mean justice
I think he means testament
testament
I mean testament
because judgment is
actually a character
I'm aware the judgment
is he the guy in the armor
that's the
that's the psp only one
yeah that game's not good
yeah I'm aware
yeah that guy
what does he look like again
he just has a bunch of
weird like
new 13 things
exactly he's not in
I get
I could see
angi-meato
but also testament
slayer
sire school though
but
and we haven't seen
any new characters yet
which there will surely be
oh of course
potemkin's basically new
yeah
angi-meato won't be there
because bang shi shigami
is gonna be
yes
pa pa pa pa
well no chip is in the game
so bang's in the game
exactly
as long as chip's in the game
I'm happy
I love chip
me too
potemkin's my favorite
we'll record a match
between my potemkin
and his chip
and it'll be the dumbest
looking match ever
sure
like that dumb ass
fucking blaze blue
match we had
yeah
but I was litchy
I forget who you were
as always
I know you were doing another woman
then I don't care
well whatever
we saved the match
it was the worst match of all time
yeah
we showed it to you
and you're belly laughing
the most plausible character
new character
is sin
yeah which sucks
cause I don't like
get ready for flag combos
wow that's cool
actually
that sentence is cool
there was a fighting game thing
I meant to tell you today
woolly bit
like
well I guess
we'll get to talk about it
next week
cause it happens on Thursday
but IGN
knowing how badly that Microsoft
must be angry at them
for fucking up
that initial
killer instinct
free to play thing
IGN is hosting
a two hour live stream
of everything else
that's in the game
orchid
accessories
the HD
version of the original
killer instinct
as like
we're so sorry
we're sorry
twitch stream
yeah and
two hours of that
and then after that
Microsoft will have
the stream of the game
nice
and apparently that's when
Spinal will get revealed
cause this happens on Thursday
which is
you know
Halloween
I like the idea of them
doing the stream
and just filthy rich
off stage just
staring at them
arms crossed
you know
I'm no big fan
of killer instinct
you've said as such
I'm no big fan
of the current Microsoft
I think Microsoft
the smartest thing
they've done
the whole thing
is like
corner the
entire fighting game market
with the fact that
they're the only people
coming out with a fighting game
at launch
my back is against the wall
yeah
absolutely
I think
that bloody roar
sony rumor
would have been
the fucking greatest thing
in the world
I would have been so happy
do you like bloody roar
I love bloody roar
me too
thank you
stun the insect for life
here's the thing
I would have loved to see bloody roar come back
here's the thing
I don't like bloody roar
I like
stun the insect
along with tiger
those dudes are cool
that's what I like
I told you
when everyone else
was playing awesome
ps2 fighting games
I was playing bloody roar
primal fury
I'm a game gamer
for hours
I was putting the demo
of two with
only those two characters
bloody roar
I was fine
bloody roar 2
is my favorite
best
worst fighting game
it is
I have had
I have never had
more fun
with something that is
clearly not good
no the bloody roar games
are the epitome
of good fighting
I got a copy of bloody roar 2
for a birthday
years ago
and yeah sure
it didn't work
very well
and it barely loaded
but I got it
yeah
good bad games
we popped in
one to mess around
for scrublers
one time
we popped in
primal fury
because a couple of people
were like
yeah play primal fury
but it's like
it's a really good bloody roar
why do we do it
the only thing
bad about bloody roar
is that it should
still be called
beasterizer
right
when I played in the
arcades
I forgot the bloody roar
was in the arcades
the whole beasterizer
yes
but no
we popped in
and were like
ah this is a bit too fun
and then we just played
for the next two hours
yeah for two hours
it was great
you can't scrub this
you really can
well we can
because you can put
all these crazy auctions
in the game
that are instant ring out
some big heads
and it made the game
really dumb
I picked the grappler girl
and did her extended
like king style combo
and then that was the night
alright we're done
it was Marvel
or whatever
the leopard girl
big tough girl
yeah
anime news
I miss you bloody roar
yo
toonami
ponied up
and they're gonna be
airing space dandy
that's nuts
and dubbed right
in january
plague told me
like plague told me
yeah it was weird
the dandiest man
in the space
it's so good
it's awesome
we really are going
back to space
we're going back to space
and boy is it dandy
that's really good news
because I was not expecting
not only that to like
hit stateside so quickly
but before japan
that was the part
of the announcement
that got me
they're pulling a crunchy roll
and they're airing it
before japan
that's what the toonami
thing said
they're airing it
here before japan
that's really cool
so between that
and you know
like the bits of killer kill
and stuff
it's like
we're starting to see
an industry where
really really cool shit
is getting delivered
to your doorstep
why not
that makes sense
business wise
it's better than the
outdated plans they had
where it was like
we'll make it
and we'll sell DVDs
at 80 bucks for two episodes
a year and a half later
why wait for pioneers
plus genie in
why wait for
you know
whatever companies
to pick it up
oh I don't mean that
I mean domestically
oh yeah
they make a show
and they sell two episodes
for 80 bucks in japan
they're retarded level prices
oh yeah for sure
but I mean like
no
here
when you have the
the DVDs packed
and boxes or whatever
it's like
if the Japanese company
can just give to someone else
directly
digitally or better
why not
absolutely
kept the middle man
that being said
we still need to start up
our kickstarter
to raise funds for us
to buy the blue ray
of gurren login
and then
your rewards
will tell you
how awesome it is
the top level reward
is
we will Skype with you
after we've watched it
and be like
whoa that was awesome
no you can't watch it
no wait
can I Skype with you
while you watch it
no after
we're done
after we've cleaned up
I only paid 50k
the really big gurren login
fan at work
and I were talking about
the crazy ultimate set
and how
like
we can't
walk by this
in real life
yeah
if it's in real life
you will do something
you will do something
and like
you will destroy
a month's rent
and that
and that fear
is ruling you on life
you can cut off
in some countries
like
you might just take it
I live in fear
of seeing that
out of the corner of my body
you're looking
and the shopkeeper
you're a big tough guy
and you're like
okay I can grab it
I can get 10 feet away
and kill me
but I had it in my head
the kind of situation
where you'd see it
and it's like
free
and the guy
standing next to it
you're like
is it really free
he's like
yeah
if I get to inject you
with all this aids
and you'd be like
oh
oh
and you'd be reaching out
and you're like
no stop
I can't stop
and
just because
we got a
a bit of a bummer
Edna Kraboppel
yeah
she died
that sucks
that sucks
what sucks is that
when I actually saw that picture of her
I'm like
aww she looks like a fun
crazy lady
who's like
love stuff
she in real life
she went
yeah
that's the lady
I was just telling Pat
about one of the best jokes
ever in The Simpsons
is Edna Kraboppel
and Principal Skinner
telling the community
about
like was the teachers strike
and it's like
but it's your children's future
hey listen
in a fantasy world
if we're going to
like you know
enrich our child's lives
and the money
it's going to require
more taxes
aww no the taxes
are too high
girls no
the taxes are too high
come on
aww yeah
no that's a good point
that's a good point
Principal Skinner
rubs his fingers together
yeah yeah
he's doing the finger thing
that means
taxes
the finger thing
means the taxes
come on
come on
oh it's the tax
aww it's the best
like Edna Kraboppel
to me is
one of the greatest
teacher characters
of all time
she's the realest teacher ever
really
do as I mean
not as I say
or do
in some cases yeah
no because
well yeah
they were in the closet
and they were making
babies and then
the baby came out
and the baby looked at me
the baby looked at you
I love that episode
it's okay
yeah that's all
so that sucks that she does
I mean they said
they're going to retire
the character
I mean
well good
yeah
how about you retire
the series
yeah
I was going to say
since we were still talking
about animation
I finally caught up
with the rest of
Hajime no Ippo
and
we're talking about
how cool the underwater
I will bring you down
underwater
and then like
that fight kind of
was like
at the end
it's fine
like if you guys
want to check it out though
you check out episode 3
is one of the most like
does he fight the bear
there's no fighting
and that's what's actually
refreshing
romance rama one half type shit
yeah
with boxing
it was a really good episode
it feels like a show
from another era
yeah it really does
it does
it's quite refreshing
from the olden days
before
everything
everything
or the other like
before the fall
before the internet
significant anime thing
I can think of
Madoka movie came out
just this weekend
what is happening this week
I can't wait
because it's coming to Theors
in North America
thanks to WTV
Madoka
did you bite me
I didn't
you touched my mouth
with your arm
and that's the time
Pat didn't even
mean to do it
this week
on The Matte Watch
The Matte Watch
I am currently
like really interested
in a girl named
Natasha Allegri
who it has
why did that sound
super familiar
because she has
a kickstarter right now
for an awesome
new show
called B & Poppy Cat
oh yeah
wait a second
oh
I know her
she drew
Ben and Jake
and Fiona and Kate
yeah
she worked on a lot
of Adventure Time
and she has
a show she wants to
pitch a cartoon network
I saw that
yeah baby
it's hilarious
yeah I saw it
it's awesome
it's super funny
and like maybe we'll do
a little quick video thing
to say guys
because the last time I looked
it's kind of
it's like the opposite
of Adventure Time
but weirder
I feel like it's like
a bit more
it's jointed Adventure Time
does it
it's way weirder
I still am preferential
to Adventure Time
but it's really cute
in a lot of good ways
because I liked it
because the same thing
as Kill the Kill
where Beach
gets a transforming
sequence
she goes
no
no no no
and she
truly doesn't want
to have a costume
but if you guys
check it out
I'm sure
we'll put in the show notes
for the kickstarter
but I thought
it was like
super hilarious
remind me though
because the show notes
are already written
yeah
okay I'm reminding you
to put it in the show
notes
and just say how
like
Greatest Warriors
not much traction on that
no not really
it's like it's alright
I don't know
it's just more generic
than an adventure time
yeah I just
you're going backwards
it just doesn't have
the spark
I don't mind it
it's alright
we all don't mind it
but you not minding
it is not the same
are you going to mind
the greatest warriors game
when Adventure Time
comes out
what's what I'm saying
is it going to be
made by way forward
but I'm just saying
would you
yeah see
it just doesn't have
the spark
it doesn't resonate
it would be better
if the
Bravest Warriors came out
first
yeah exactly
it's like
when you meet a girl
and you're like
you know I should like this
girl but
yeah
no Bravest Warriors
is like a step backwards
and being puppy cat
is like a weird
step sideways
yeah
it's not
it's not worse
it's distinctly different
I wouldn't be surprised
if it turns out
that Pendleton
like somehow created
that series
in high school
I want
to
I don't want that
at all
where all it is
is her adventures
okay cause then
you'll get sick of it
no I won't
yes you will
you put any character
that you love
and you put it
exclusively you'll get some
I'm still
I'm still
I'm still
I'm still
I'm still waiting
for my
Johnny the
homicidal maniac
animated series
that's never gonna
get that
just watch
Ren and Stimpy
same thing
I can't watch
Ren and Stimpy
to watch
yeah
oh yeah
we mentioned that
I was telling a story
about how the first time
I watched Ren and Stimpy
as a kid
it just scared the fucking
shit out of me
and he just goes
me too
absolutely
if you watched any
of the John Krifoulouski
episodes
those are the ones
that are made for
fucking children up
all the
all the
all the
all the
all the
all the
all the
all the
all the
all the
yeah
Yeah
Ren and Stimpy
is horrifying
yeah
fuck
I would like to forget
that Fry did
both voices
Oh wow
whoa I didn't know that
Well but
you're ruining my life
no
but he only did it
after John Kay left
yeah
well
because John Kay was
originally the voice
of Stimpy
no Ren
sorry
and
they pissed him off
and he
um
due to super talented
Billy West
so he took over
yo
what
I think that it might be
the time
that we do the letters
oh the letters
the emails
the letter time
if you want to mail
a letter
to us
don't
don't
instead
email it to
superbestfriendcast
at gmail.com
I'm gonna need you
to repeat that
one more time
okay you can't
put letters
into the email
but you can
type an email
you can send it
to
superbestfriendcast
at gmail.com
yeah
then take your stamps
that you bought
like a loser
and fuck off
no
why did you stick it
to stamps
stamps are great
what the hell
who
who are you
what's with this level
of weird vitriol
towards postage
we don't
watch your snail mail
I want the post office
to get something
like
do you want some
Superman stamps
it was like
no man it still
was awful
because the postman is like
what
no this is the girl
that gives you your package
that you missed
what's a Superman
not only
she was like
I agree it was awful
not only is there no time
there's never been less time
oh boy
what do we got
email lines
yeah
so
Dylan asks
you say Dylan
son of a bitch
thank you
you set us up
no that's wrong
no it's so good
oh wait
you set us up
it was bullshit all of it
gotta say
over the last few weeks
I love listening to your
discussion about shows
like Breaking Bad and the Wire
and I know you guys
love Game of Thrones too
are there any other shows
that you guys are huge fans of
that you'd recommend
looking forward to your suggestions
Rome
Rome I'm saying Rome
okay yes good
because I was gonna say
like
if we're gonna do
if we're gonna say those three things
then we have to keep it in the
vein of hour long
drama
drama
Luther is awesome
Luther is good
yeah
uh
boss is really fucking good
there's Kelsey Grammer
playing the mayor of Boston
as a shitbag
yeah
it's really good
that sounds accurate
yeah
a similar
similar scenario
is House of Cards
with Kevin Spacey
yeah
playing a politician
on the White House
in the White House
who's also a shitbag
so
really good actors
being shitbags for politics
the future of drama
is your main character
is a fucking piece of shit
that's the twist
yeah
um
I don't really watch
much TV at all
shocking
never really have
um
if I had to recommend a show
like the early seasons of
community
like it's such a
everyone's watched it thing
but the early seasons of
community
I would advise you to stop
watching at the end of season
two
yeah but I'm giving them
strictly
I'm giving them the point
to stop
yeah
I'll give you the cutoff
exactly
it really drops off
the cutoff is exactly
at
I'd say the
paintball episode
yeah
that's definitely
HBO's Rome
Rome is fucking great
man
porn is good
yeah
watch Rome
it's not porn
it's HBO
it's basically porn
well there's that fucking
skit on
whatever
I think it's college humor
where it's like
like these people go for
auditions are like
and then I rip my tits out
and then
he jacks off everywhere
and everyone's like
oh my god you're doing
what
what's this job
no no no
it's not porn
it's HBO
and they're like
actually
I want to backtrack on this
because whenever I go
to the country
with my redneck family
we watch
Pawn Stars
and Duck Dynasty
and those things are
fucking great
Pawn Stars is pretty fun
if you're gonna throw
Duck Dynasty's great
if you're gonna throw
if you're gonna throw Pawn Stars
in there
I'm gonna reiterate that
Mythbusters is the best show
to watch
in huge
birds
it's really consumable
yeah
yeah
you know what
the newsroom
if you haven't seen the newsroom
you should check that out
Aaron Sorkin
I really dropped off on that
I was told that was
super super good
I watched the first two
and then inexplicably stopped
me too
but like that opener
if that opener doesn't
catch you
that's pretty good
then like
then you hate Aaron Sorkin
too mad
plus Jeff Daniels
is always awesome
exactly
James asks
hey James what's up
uh
no we don't know
where the dream cast is
sorry
okay
sure
I was
thinking like
Pokemon for some reason
Jesse and James
that episode
with you and the fake tits
getting removed
was bullshit
he never stopped talking
about that episode
it's the only thing worth
mentioning
there's tons of crap
that was Pokemon
there's the one where
Porygon killed all those kids
yeah one two
uh
do you believe that
fan service can only
detract from an experience
in video games or anime
or is it possible to
add to an experience
oh totally
he goes on
and he has a few more details
but the point is basically
that
like
good or bad
fan service
like
does he mean
general fan service
or tits
male female fan service
I'm not being gender
specific
of course
though it's clear that
there is way more fan service
of the ladies than the guys
um
I
probably play the games
with the most
fan service
I
don't think
that it adds
anything
I think
everything
is always
100%
context sensitive
yeah
and I
like
don't think I could
really name a game
fan service
helps
I can name some games
where it doesn't
hinder it
like near
where Kine being
the way she is
doesn't hinder it
but I wouldn't say
it helps per se
um
night trap
it really helps
night trap
wow
what do you need
but you can't think
of any other games
like honestly
like a CD game
I know that's
what you mean
but like the drunk
I'm gonna go ahead
and say that
9 times out of 10
personally I feel it's a
hindrance
they could have been
classy here
but they didn't
because they wanted to
make an appeal
for like a cheap get
totally
and sometimes
it does make sense
but it's rare
when it does
I find what
Kill La Kill is doing
is a bit odd
because they're
referencing it
themselves
they're almost trying to
laugh at it
while they're doing it
and I find that
the art style
though doesn't
make it sexy
I think
especially that fourth
episode or
proportions get
really wacky
and Mako
when she pulls up her shirt
and you see like
under boob
and you're like
but that's just
a fucking cartoon
this looks like
South Park
you know what I mean
awesome
it's not really
anything
when it does bleed
overflowing with
boners
I feel it generally
though detracts
and I feel like
as long as
the games industry
is gonna be
continually
sensitive
and attentive
to these types
of issues nowadays
games like
Dragon's Crown
games
it's almost always bad
I feel like
Kill a Kill
and Bayonetta
are two really good examples
where if you took out
the sexuality
you'd have to replace it
with something
and you know
obviously people are
gonna yell
but you could replace it
with something constructive
and you know
you could
you could replace it
with something constructive
all day
that was the
that was the
design choice
they went with
and in Kill a Kill
and Bayonetta's case
it's fine
it's good for it
yeah
it makes a cool
exciting character
that I've seen tons of girls
love
it makes Bayonetta
a million girls
that love Bayonetta
yeah
and somehow
Bayonetta
doesn't strike me
as like
it doesn't handle it
as bad
as like
Onachan Barrett
the reason why
is that because
in Bayonetta
Bayonetta is
the sexual predator
yeah
she is the
she is the one
with like
she's always
has the lollipop
with the lollipop
it's tiny
okay
there's the hot
dude
who's going
no Bayonetta
don't touch me
and just like
get over here
so I can get
some of that
right
Bayo
is the
is the character
in control
and her
taking her clothes off
is like
look at this
shit you
motherfuckers
right
right
whereas in
Dead or Alive
it's you
peering through
the bushes
at 18 year old
there's some games
that just wouldn't be
there's some games that just
wouldn't be complete
without it
like
ray play
but
you went
for the big joke
no
of course
I respect
I respect the balls
on this plate
oh podcast is over
we're all going to jail
we're all going to jail
I can't believe
what I was going to say
was even
I can't believe
I can't believe
even games like
hyperdimension
neptunia
which
I do play
I think it's fucking
it's too much
no
it's just
it's too much
it's awful
there's a thing
like
correct me if I'm wrong
but I don't think at any point
Beyo's jiggling anywhere
um
maybe
jiggle
I feel jiggle
is a particular type of like
like
did you have to go there
no
I think briefly
Beyo's sexuality
is always kind of
demonstrating the way
she walks
yeah
sure
with the cat walk
walk always
I mean wonder pink
has a bunch of
people in here and there
but
I was going to say
after I watched
an episode of
Hajime no Ippo
I saw some other
like
little thumbnail
and it said
I want to be the strongest
in the world
like what is this
I click on it
and what it is
is an idle girl
idle girl
I read the description
of that
so bad
I read the
worst
the first three seconds
is like
a girl jiggling
and then she gets
thrown on the floor
she gets
thrown into like
I see another fight
and there's no cool animation
there's no like
well
fan service okay
but do you at least
have a cool rustling match
you don't
stop talking about
vanguard princess
you see
everyone stop talking
you thought the same thing I did
because the title
I thought like
a sexy Hajime no Ippo
with girls
and it was just
a sexy
Iken
is it
and it's terrible
the one where they're just
like flesh
blobs
boobing everywhere
size wide
like
what is
that terrible terrible
what's the one called
Senran
Senran Kagura
yeah that's the worst
no Iken is the worst
Iken is the worst
I want to cover the world
in Iken's boobs
well that's the best quote
that's the director saying
well my favorite
fucking thing was
Harada from Tekken
saying I really want to
go out and buy it
but I don't want people
seeing me buy it
Harada knows what's what
what's that game
what's the fucking game
with the
the boo pinching
oh
fuck
stretch panic
stretch panic
the treasure game
yeah
man it's so silly
like it's not
yeah
you look at it
you don't even want to say
it's really
not what you think it is
it's not what you think
it's like a funny
sexy kind of
catamari
but it's not
sexy at all
but the one is
he's sexy like
fine like
like these weird
big boob girls are only
weird in a creepy way
because the little girl
you're playing sees older
women like that
they're not attractive
so to close it out
in games and anime
like 90% of the time
are like
pretty bad
95
like
I could respect you
more
if you didn't do this
yeah
the only thing I'd say
is that in project
cross zone
when the sexy characters
have their sexy animations
like it makes sense
for them
but I can't remember
because I never play the game
because it's so fucking boring
yeah
but does anyone remember
Chun Li or characters
that shouldn't really
be doing that
well I'm going to
go ahead and say
it doesn't make sense
and she raised her arms
and like
and it doesn't make
why
why does cosmos
is the character of like
I don't agree with that
because Zeno Saga
did that
yeah
oh it did
yeah
and in Zeno Saga
it's creepy there
so they're fan servicing
yeah exactly
the games
fan service
so cosmos is ruined forever
yeah
oh totally
because no one played
Zeno Saga 2 or 3
one of my favorite
look
quite simply one of my
favorite female characters
of all time is the boss
boss is the best
she is the most
non sexual
like
female character
in video games
totally
and even to the point
where her shirt is open
and you're looking
at her breasts
and you're like
nothing
sex is the hardest thing
there's nothing but respect
yeah without a doubt
and that is why
yeah
like every time
I think of that
I just go
this is what games can do
he did a good thing
that Kojima
yeah
uh
Jacob
asks
good question by the way
to whoever that was
it was a good question
that was those
James
that was James
soon
Jacob
that was topical
Jacob asks
Pokemon's big road
have you guys
ever considered doing
more best friends
watch?
uh
we have considered
we have considered that
several times
and companies keep
telling us
we can't do that
it always blows up
in our face
and then we
we all go
hey we should do this
and then we
start to do it
and then
yeah
it does
we'll gladly do it
when we stop getting
told to fuck off
I'd say there's
maybe one
two games
where it's
probably okay
to do that
and that's it
like I can't think of
anymore
you've got to realize guys
that if we fuck up
we all lose our jobs
so
we don't really
lose our jobs
because
we lose our jobs
for a couple days
we could either
lose our jobs
for a couple days
or
we can actually
ask
you know
the powers of
B
do you think this is
okay
to be very rare
like I mean
literally one or two
gonna go behind the curtain
here guys
and say that
we tried to play a game
that was basically a watch
yeah
the powers of B
shut that one down
the powers of B
were certainly wrathful
about that
thanks Capcom
well
wait a fucking
minute
jeez
Matt and I
are dancing
elegantly in
seven piece suits
if you say the words
going behind the curtain
the curtain's
gonna get pulled back
a little bit
uh
yeah well fuck
then Azura's Wrath
is not gonna happen
guys
sorry
so
we just
go ahead
we did
we tried to do that
we sat down and did
as soon as you upload
Azura's Wrath
Capcom tells you
you can't do it
but more than that
how much of Azura's Wrath
did you do
for the channel
what do you mean
did you play through
an entire time
before the game
and I
recorded it
and then
Pat and Woolly
were like
you don't want to see it again
where I deleted it
and we were like
and that was two years ago
and that was two years ago
and then
before we could even
really do it
and then we sat down and did it again
and then
YouTube said no
and hell fucking no
actually YouTube said
that Capcom said no
no
so guess what guys
no Azura's Wrath
ever
but attempts were made
uh
spoiler alert
we didn't like it
very much
and we took a lot of time
to explain why
yes
so what
for all of those that are
glad right now
to see
way to hype up the thing
that no one will ever see
that's it
I mean
me and Pat just sat there
and described
why these hype things
were not hype
yeah
hey you know
the whole thing
can be broken down
and that we played
the first two hours
of Azura's Wrath
and we're sitting there going
man
you know it's better
than this
current login
but why Pat
why is that
because current login
was better
but would that be
because they didn't
start in space
that's pretty much it
escalation of surprise
it almost spiraled forward
rather than
go over the fucking plane
spiral you might say
like the theme of
okay
that's a little taste
of what you'll never see
no
that's not a little taste
that's literally
the entire experience
ball down into 80 seconds
alright next question
what is the next question
uh
the next question
is gonna come from
that game is bad
don't play it
or watch it
hey hey
you want it to move on
did you guys
animate
no shut up
those are even worse
we'll take one more question
from Cameron
and he just straight up
wants to know
yo guys
how much show prep
is involved in making
the podcast
oh
I don't know
fully
and I'll say
all week
exactly
where I'm gathering
little bits
and pieces of news
and then Matt
and I and Liam
are going
sending you messages
going
hey check this thing out
and you go
I'm not putting that in
and like
you break into this
like yeah
but most of the work
comes immediately after this
where I'm gonna race home
like in two hours
and yes
and I'm gonna
and I'm gonna
fucking get this live footage
that we're recording now
and convert it
and put it up online
and get everything prepped
in the next like six hours
or so
it's really hard
and then tomorrow
hit a button
yeah
yeah
that's it
so I kill myself
for the night of
and then the rest is fine
how much work is in prep
is involved in
doing a shit storm
in the game
so like
well console PC
break it down
okay PC
I recently started using
DXTory with the Lager
with Lossless Codec
it works great
so setup time on that
is now almost nothing
beforehand
beforehand
and when I was using
Fraps and MSI Afterburner
I would have to do
it like
it tests over and over
does this record
does it work
how big is this file
really fucking huge
and it would like
I don't know
half an hour of pre-test
get all the settings right
on PC
so that's like
half an hour
figure out
like what gay
I don't know
right before sitting down
for a new thing
half an hour to 45 minutes
the first time
before sitting down
for a new thing
like an hour and a half
well all factors combined
yeah
unlike a console
like a few
360 and Wii U
there's like almost nothing
you really have to check
on the PS3
there's a little bit of stuff
there's some stuff
make sure
I think like
on the PS2
we have to be careful of
like transitions
and loading screens now
but now you're
near new disc based
recorder all the time
yeah DVD recorder
can do it whatever
which is a pain in the ass
you gotta set
the DVDs up
yeah it really is
honestly I think
when it comes to videos
you've got like
fairly light post work
with a bunch of pre-work
you know sometimes
depending on the game
if you have weird
like
usually it's like
an hour of
pre-setup
and like
five, six hours of post
okay
I'm including render time
yeah
so
and upload time
whereas podcast is like
you know like
whatever little bits
and pieces of the news
we're reading all week
do I have the list
yeah
but the post work
is fucking enormous
it's ridiculous
because I have to do
quality conversions
I have to like
go back in
and get the actual
basically listen to the whole thing
listen to the whole thing
listen to the weird bits
and it's like 10 o'clock
11 o'clock at night
and that's the point
where I'm rendering that
comparing the post for the website
yeah
the post for the Facebook
the YouTube trailer
all that stuff
somebody asked
hey guys
can you make timing annotations
for when you talk about things
no
and I was like
are you fucking kidding me
when we get somebody
whose job that is
sure
get out of here
right
the rest of us are busy
jeez
anyway
it's hard
but yeah
that's basically it
you know
yeah
a machinima episode
just really quickly
gotta get
plague
super fast
super fast
have to like
find the game
have to make
machinima know what it is
have to make all the annotations
and now
since we do more live action stuff
have to figure out how to get
live action bits
inside of the starter
at the end
like the injustice video
took a fucking while
and because I all know
that you're burning with curiosity
a typical episode of
fight or pedia
it's the reason why
it's not on the air anymore
yeah
but like
my top 10 took like
20 hours to make
so
any complexity in the video
balloons it exponentially
and my top 10
Liam's top 10
like I worked on those
for a while
yeah I did it one day
which was tough
it was tough
don't do that
yeah
you know
I'm gonna do it again this year
you know even the
the Titan video
like I put the little bits and pieces
to make it feel right
your stuff
should take time
yeah and we were lucky
that we split the JoJo
and Titan videos
between us
where I got it
in its pristine format
and then you just had to
add the forces
but both of those
took a while
you remember
dive kick
that took like
8 straight hours
before editing
just to get all the footage
and honestly
and when I went home
after we did
the Pacific Rim video
yeah
like that intro
to the Pacific Rim video
that gave me like
feels of
fight or pedia again
yeah no
because it had that type of
images
while we're talking
sequences going
and I went
man oh man
I'm getting nostalgic
fuck this bullshit never again
it's too hard
too much work
shockingly we actually
have to do stuff
what's coming up on the channel
I was coming on the channel
the end of the shit storm is coming
yeah I was just gonna say that
but
no it was when
well you looked at me
you look like
actually we know exactly when
the day before November 1st
exactly
and
spoilers
and oh yeah
Pat just talked about
maybe we should talk about
what's happening
because November 1st
is before the next podcast
so we're gonna do
four more
shit storm
no wait
that's counting today
so three more
there'll be games
that people have asked us
to play
at least one case
yes
and then on November 1st
Matt, Woolly and I
will be putting up
the first part
of the new
ongoing let's play
which will be
beyond two
super best friends
play beyond two souls
you all wanted it
you're gonna get it
backed by popular demand
but we don't want it though
the end of the sadness trilogy
it will be there
I'm really disappointed
that there was no place
in beyond two souls
to put a name
and have it be sadness
yeah I know
but whatever
so you really
I thought you guys
were gonna wait for the reveal
but you're gonna break it out
a little because
we'd rather people
know it's coming on
November 1st
than be surprised
maybe we won't get
death threats anymore
maybe we won't get
death threats from people
saying do an LP
because we got a death threat
from someone
on YouTube message
saying I'll have you
fucking killed
because you guys
just did beyond two souls
for a mission
which is ridiculous
because we were already
doing the LP
don't tell us to do
what we were already doing
right
you were so like
we have to get it out there
so that he wasn't right
he didn't like force it
you didn't do it anyway
yeah yeah
I wanted to do it for me
also if anyone's interested
arts and crafts
stay tuned to the channel this week
I can't believe
you have to stay tuned
to the channel
stay tuned to the channel
arts and crafts
man
I think that about covers
everything
pretty much
people are gonna be so mad
about Azura's Wrath
oh so mad
you're getting there again
beyond two souls
yeah I know
I know
which is interesting
yeah
but like
there's a couple of
are you
better than Azura's Wrath
it
yes
stop
we don't know
yeah we didn't say anything
oh you didn't finish it
no
but they're coming there
like some people were like
oh you guys should release
things like rift tracks
maybe and stuff
and it's like
like for MGS4
rift tracks
there's a guy
that was just the cut scenes
there's no gameplay there
it wouldn't work
what are you thinking
you know
like I'd like to do a rift track
someday but it's like
I don't
like they already did rift tracks
and they did it perfectly
I want to just do that
yeah
yeah
yeah
we would do it
if we all went to space though
let's go back to space
