Everybody feeling okay? We're not all too tired?
I'm a little sleepy.
A little sleepy. That Red Bull did nothing.
I think it powered him down.
It wasn't great.
Like a nega Red Bull?
Yeah, nega Red Bull.
Well, there's, there's, uh, slow cow.
Drank and mellow.
And there's slow cow as well.
Slow cow's like the funniest.
There's the Bob Marley drink as well.
I don't even want to actually do it.
So mellow down if you're getting ready for bed.
If you're too hype, no.
You have to get on stage in a minute.
All of you guys out there should always be drinking this shit.
It's like, there was a moment on stream where I kept drinking Red Bulls
and everyone was like, Pat, you're turning redder and redder.
You're going in as well.
It's like, I was like, maybe I could have used a mellow cow.
Whatever.
Our official energy drink would be the Zybatzu Pumped Down.
Yeah.
Zybatzu Pumped Down.
Who's ready to get pumped down?
Yeah.
It's just poison.
That's how you get it.
Medicinal ingredient, 2% arsenic.
It's only 2%.
How bad could it be?
Yeah.
You'll run slower than Kenyans.
You'll never get me into a ring.
Boxing causes brain damage.
He just drinks like a bottle of varnish.
Well, the reason why we're all tired is because big Zybatzu on a big day.
It's been a big week.
I think the term burning the candle up both ends would apply here.
I never understood what that meant.
That's why the candle's on its side.
I thought it was something wasted all the wax.
Wasted all the wax.
No, it's not.
I thought it was actually like a super filthy thing.
No.
And I was confused that people used it all the time.
In particular, my week was fun because prior to even doing the Nuzlocke stream, had my teeth
yanked out and did recording.
So Wally is now toothless.
Had my last wisdom day.
His natural state.
And was also recording and editing for the days prior.
And we're going to be doing that for the days after this as well, if there's really no
breaking site, but it's good times.
Well, there's a break for Matt.
There is.
Big break.
Run away from a nicer place.
After doing the most work.
That seems fair.
It seems fair to me too.
But let's start with...
Forget about all that shit.
Here comes Nuzlocke.
I was going to go with podcasts.
Well, we're here.
We're doing a podcast.
We've been doing it for like two minutes.
You already yelled that.
We've been doing it for 51 weeks in a row, you guys.
It's 51.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
This podcast is soon approved.
Predictions that we made are starting to come around.
Matt, will you be on the podcast next week?
Ooh, I like that actually.
What?
Goichi podcast.
Goichi podcast.
I doubt it because I don't think Cuba's got the strongest Wi-Fi signals going on.
I'm going to assume and I'm not going to...
That's why I'm working and editing so much.
Because I can't be editing stuff while in Cuba.
And then in case I can't upload it.
Lest you play it back to yourself at some point.
And like people over here, a shout of America.
Fucking dudes kick your door down.
What the fuck's going on in here?
Not a great idea.
So, you know, I don't see myself being on a podcast next week.
No podcast birthday cake for you.
Try not to get too hyped down there, man.
I would just try.
Because the whole point is to get pumped down.
Yeah.
To go there.
Like when we went to New York, whatever, let's do videos, let's record things.
I'm not going to do a fucking thing.
I'm going to lay on the beach and look at people get eaten by sea rye.
Squirt catch up on your stuff.
Squirt catch up on myself.
Now is this part of an elaborate ruse in which you'll have to go in for anti-leprosy treatments?
Is that a thing?
Is that a thing?
It's a symptoms of something.
I don't recall that one.
Homer convinces people that he has leprosy.
So they send him down to a leprosy treatment center in a tropical island.
And then Bar goes too.
Yeah.
And they get these horrible treatments with all these needles for like eight hours a day.
They're like, it's totally worth it.
We'll get back to the Simpsons in just a minute.
Will we?
We will.
Oh shit.
And now, more Simpsons references.
But first, the stream.
The stream.
That's some fucking, that's some best friend's history right there.
It went well.
That went really well.
It's considered it was the first.
It was okay.
Consider it was the first stream that had like all of us sort of involved.
And being in a much more complicated fashion.
Being a huge amount of time.
You guys, I wish you could have seen my room because when they walked in, it's like serial experiments lame.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There was water on the bottom to keep the stream systems cool.
I want to see Willie hooked up to all these like electrodes, like ghosts in the shell.
There's all these wires coming out of his limbs.
I am a living entity born on the foundation of knowledge.
My fingers split into like all these keyboard pressers.
Yeah.
He's going to step down there like at what?
Nudish.
And I looked at like what I would, you had the two laptops going with the same screens like on both.
And I was like, okay.
Yeah, I'm sure he knows what he's doing.
I hope he knows what he's doing.
He did.
He did know.
He worked out then and then off camera on the wall that the viewer couldn't see was that framed picture of spooky.
Yeah.
Every time I lost confidence.
No, it's like he's praying like he's like Mother Teresa or something.
Every time I lost confidence, I look over at him and he just like, I feel the spirit bless me.
And he just look at you and be like, you're free now.
Yeah.
He's looking at you and he'd be like, don't touch my computer.
And when the completion of the Nuzlocke happened, you like the spooky is looking down on everyone.
He's just like the going nothing.
My spooky S link is at nine.
I'm almost there.
You guys.
Oh, which one did you pick?
I don't ever mind.
Two inside.
Two inside.
Two inside.
So I saw looks like a bumper crop.
Tell that shit.
This dude's losing it.
We're just walking back from the Nuzlocke dinner talking about P4G and shit.
And just all the people I'm hanging out with all the fun.
And just every fucking hanging out with in person in person.
And that's right.
And every fucking time you plant your crops, they're always a bumper crop.
Dojima.
Why is everything a bumper crop?
Because you're harvesting them on time.
Oh, looks like I haven't done this in a while.
You did it four days ago with me.
Your uncle.
We got closer together for doing it.
Your uncle is a bit of a scatterbrain when he's not doing detective shit.
Fuck him.
No wonder Nanako's so sad.
God damn it.
Just bind the little ice creams and then I'll let you know.
Those little ice cream things he loves at Junas.
Oh, Topsicles.
That's right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's right.
He loves that shit.
I was going to say that one of the most things that I took away from the stream was someone
made a comment.
I forget what it was in the other in the chat or is it a comment posted on the channel
or whatever.
But it was just like with this and pro Jared, something he did with the Nuzlocke is like
I really think Pokemon maybe in general or just moving Nuzlocke's are much better suited
for streams because it's more interactive and then people can give advice and things.
Well, the main thing is that you can call like you or I out on something stupid that
we said in 30 seconds and rectify it not a week and a half later.
Yeah.
Two or three parts later.
And so on.
I mean, it's generally it seems like it's generally accepted that like pro Jared's Nuzlocke was
like the best fucking one now.
He's a pro.
I don't know.
And I was in Jared.
Yeah, sure.
I didn't watch it because I didn't want to watch the thing of the thing we're going
to do, you know, but that being said, yeah, like that got really fucking tense at the
end.
That got really fun.
I said it like eight times on the stream, but I can't believe we got there.
Every time we got somewhere further, I was stunned because I was hedging my bets that
we'd die.
I like the fact that a lot of people were playing their own dramatic music of choice once we
were moving on.
And some people were playing Lieberomy from Hell.
So people actually started playing a battle for everyone.
Sorry, your old days.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bunch of nerd shit.
Yeah, man.
Tell me about the islands.
What about the?
That told me to ask you about the islands when I got over the islands, but I forgot.
It was a GBA, like a quest of that version.
So that wasn't sure what it was.
There's a whole new thing they threw in at the game and apparently someone explained
it to me later.
It's like, it's where you go to get the.
It was after you beat Blaine and just Bill just comes up to you and kidnaps you.
He asks you, you want to come with me?
And I was like, okay.
Say no to Strangers.
Yes, Stranger Danger.
You know him very well.
They shove you on a boat and they send you to a whole other region.
And that's apparently the part of the game where you get the stuff that's not in the
Kanto Pokedex.
Yeah.
And it fucking is this side quest thing that you're stuck on for a while doing fetch quests
and shit before you go back up to fight your time.
Well, it's a good thing you did it.
Otherwise I would have shown up to nothing.
Maybe.
That's true.
Yeah, because that was a really broad.
All intents and purposes was literally a progress halter.
It was.
It took about an hour to get back on track.
But the one level we got there was the difference between winning and losing.
Yeah, maybe.
Maybe.
And you got Hydro Cannon there.
I got Hydro Cannon there.
So we got the fucking Giga Drill Breaker that ends everything.
Without having that, it wouldn't have been as amazing.
The thing is too, I didn't know that they moved Moltres apparently.
I totally forgot.
So Moltres is no longer on Victory Road.
They dropped them over on that new mountain or whatever.
I don't fucking remember.
Exactly.
I didn't play that game.
But we got back on the path and we fucking, you know.
Somehow did it.
Set the fucking thing to slay four gods and we did it.
And for those of you who are asking, because a lot of people still are not too sure,
yeah, we're going to take this stuff and we're going to put it up for you guys to watch
on the site and on YouTube.
So, you know.
It'll be there.
It'll be there.
Yeah, no worries.
I think we'll take away that when we find an appropriate thing,
we could probably do more altogether streaming stuff.
What it makes sense.
Like I said, when it makes sense, that's the key thing.
It's going to make sense.
Because we don't have any further plans immediately.
24 hours!
Don't stream coming!
We do not have plans immediately, but I named the channel Super Best Friends Play
for a reason.
If there's a good thing to do, we can go and do it.
But it's not a definite part of our plans right now because we're spread out pretty
thin as far as coverage goes on a lot of stuff.
Now, everyone has a really good idea for a stream that we should do.
Sure.
Here's how you do this.
You type up your email to superbestfriendcast.gmail.com,
then before you send it, delete it.
That's how you do it.
And pretend you sent it.
Yeah.
Okay, we'll go with that.
So, Nuzlocke is Nuzlocke.
Those who weren't there, you'll see it soon.
Or you can catch the archives.
And absolutely the best choice was to stream the end.
Even if it didn't fail your dream.
No, I'm really happy that that worked out.
I basically said, look, at the point this is at, we've got to make it go good,
or it can just go terribly and burn horribly.
Exactly.
One way or the other, push it to an extreme, and we got some good shit, man.
We got some good shit.
The artwork just started flowing.
The videos and the gifts and all that fun stuff.
I'm glad.
Looking up at fucking Luda.
Luda in the sky.
I got a message from someone that said, since you now have a channel stream,
are you still going to do Streamslam?
Yeah, I'm still going to do Streamslam.
The next thing I'm going to do is Counter-Spy,
but I don't know what day it comes up.
But I'm super hyped for Counter-Spy.
Since you mentioned art, I just wanted to say,
it was like kind of buried in there,
because it was kind of not a day of you per se,
but you did the Nuzlocke.
I noticed what you threw up that day.
I'm completely forgetting that Nuzlocke was that day
when I scheduled the ultimate destruction to go up there,
but my favorite piece of artwork, all the Pokemon stuff was great,
but it was just that picture of Hulk pointing that
with another Hulk stand behind him.
Because the Hulk stand is the Hulk.
We should also take this time to mention, too,
about the scheduling thing.
What that's going to be about.
How that works.
I remember seeing a lot of comments in particular
on Reddit and NeoGaff in terms of light-wise
the YouTube stuff going up way after the site stuff.
And the reason is because when you make a little page
for the video on the website,
you can just say, I want this to go up at 3pm tomorrow.
And then at any time, you can save it and say,
no, I want it to go up at 4.25pm.
Because I'm not going to be or something...
Or something different or whatever.
But YouTube, with their scheduling thing,
you can only choose to schedule stuff at the time of upload,
which sucks.
So one of us has to get to a PC
and manually do the YouTube thing.
So it means that on the days that it used to be
like one in the morning,
when I would come home and go,
oh shit, nothing went up.
But a Chrono Trigger.
I remember that happening like six times.
Now the site will go up automatically,
because it's a robot.
And it'll be on schedule.
Which we're currently, what is it?
Three and nine o'clock?
We're generally doing three and nine o'clock.
Right now, since the superhero month,
three o'clock for let's play parts
and then nine o'clock at night for a super friend.
You guys also might have noticed
that we're doing two videos a day now.
So in fact, the YouTube one is still
on the exact same schedule as it used to be.
It's just the website.
It's just that we have to actually do it.
Do it.
And sometimes we don't.
So most days it's gone up
within like 10 minutes, 15 minutes,
or whatever, because Matt said
I'm out of the house. Can you put this up?
But sometimes I'm also out of the house,
so you're out of the house.
But when we went to Con Bravo,
it was totally automated.
We were busy.
But we still had to rush back to the hotel room
and we were hours late.
But that's why, and to just kind of bring it all together,
that's why the Facebook post
will go up when we get to the computer,
because there's public, because you know,
okay, we just got to sit down.
The site will update itself and no one will be there,
so there won't be a Facebook post about it.
But the schedule releases.
A person has to do the Facebook post.
Exactly.
That's a nice benefit of the site.
I feel like we should invent a robot
to do this stuff.
Why don't we just hire someone?
To just upload, to just publish videos.
Should hire a robot.
Yeah, okay.
Can we get Zack to do this?
We can teach him.
We can work on this.
He's got the little furry paws.
Then we make him a furry paw keyboard.
If he's the only one that can stomach a certain game,
maybe he's the only one that can do this manual labor.
Zack's a tough cookie.
Oh, it's so hard.
I was under the impression he wasn't.
Oh, that's true, he quit.
Besides the Nuzlocke,
other things that went down for me personally this week.
Aside from all this bullshit,
what's going on with you?
I had my jaw torn open.
I had my jaw torn open,
I yanked out the tooth, it's fixed.
And then you went to the dentist.
Yeah.
It's actually funny that
this time around,
it was the easiest tooth pulling I've ever had.
That's really nice.
That's saying like pulling teeth?
Not really.
I talked to you right after this happened
the other day,
all the cutting in the world didn't work.
So I had the moment
where the dude
latched the pliers on
and honest to Christ,
put his foot up on the chair.
Why was he saying that
as a joke?
And had to go full on human power.
That's bullshit.
No, that is standard.
Yo, but it sucks.
Remember, you didn't have to go through that shit.
Back in the day cartoons would be like
tie the string to the doorknob.
Yeah, because putting your foot up
makes it feel like
I'm not a toolshed
that you need to do stuff
physically, I'm a human being.
But it came right out
and the dentist was like,
whoa, geez.
I was expecting way more trouble there.
Hey Mabel, look at this.
Put him under the gas anyway.
Take off his pants.
Your friends, we have last time
this happened during Nuzlocke
when he was falling asleep.
You remember?
We were recording
when I took the drugs.
I knew it was dead.
Yeah, that wasn't great.
I also went out
and checked out the new Luc Besson movie, Lucy.
Wow, both of you saw that.
That's weird.
You saw Lucy too?
Oh, was it you that?
I told you that, yeah.
So my first question about Lucy
is it better than Phenomenon
starring John Travolta?
I did not see Phenomenon starring John Travolta.
Damn. Fuck.
That movie's terrible.
Amazing.
So that's the thing here, right?
Lucy. I was saying to you that
is it weird that the movie just
looks like the trailer's like it's salt?
It's
woman that's killing everybody.
But it's not that at all.
This is probably destined to be
classic.
It is
bad.
It is not good.
It is terrible.
When Matt told me that
Luc Besson is not
having a hot streak these days.
Not having a hot streak.
The only thing is that he produced
Taken 1 and 2.
It hasn't directed anything of like
merit or positive praise since
5th Element.
5th Element was a cult thing
and then when it came out it jumped on it.
You know?
It's getting
mixed reviews because some people are on the side of
this is so bad shit that I'm
on board. But like
it basically tries to do things
too smart for the writers and
directors.
So they needed to use more than 10%
of their brain. Exactly.
But they weren't. It's whenever you see
fiction where they introduce a...
Is that a line in the movie?
That's the premise.
The 10% of your brain shit.
Lucy can use more.
That's the premise.
The whole premise of the movie is
she can use more than 10% of her brain.
Like every human that
exists. That's besides the point.
Don't point out the fact that
that's been proven to be bullshit.
It was proven to be bullshit like 20 years ago.
Exactly.
And they just keep on with it.
Whenever they get like Morgan Freeman
on camera to be the guy that's
explaining the pseudo-science
he's doing it in the most layman
terms possible.
To a university class.
I can't handle that.
That was also in the other movie with
Bradley Cooper. He takes that drug that makes
him super good. Remember that?
I forgot what it was called. He takes that drug
and everyone's like oh geez why are you so good
and that entire premise is also this
drug unlocks the other 90%
of your brain.
The places that it goes
are so
grand compared to the dumb
origins of where it begins.
And the thing is they put up, he came out
and gave
the script
an explanation for what this movie is
when he was describing it
as a pitch to people.
I saw this page
and I kind of fucking like oh my god
I understand now.
This is literally word verbatim from
Luc Besson. This is the pitch.
This is the pitch. One page. Half a paragraph.
This film is extremely visual.
It's difficult to describe in words without
running the risk of losing or boring the reader.
So I have a simplified summary
like a reader's guide in as few words as possible.
The beginning is Leon the professional.
The middle is inception.
The end is 2001 a space audience.
Shut up! Shut your damn mouth!
That's how you get something green lit.
That's a very smooth progression
Word for word from himself.
And you fucking see it
and now I understand why he said that
but god damn
does he not know how to fucking piece that together?
I think
anyone would struggle to piece together that way.
That sounds like all those piece of shit
games that we play
and you say to me Pat
you know what word was used for this that you don't want to hear?
Ambitious!
That's
the most ambitious description
of anything I've ever heard in my life.
And some ideas in the movie
in the hands of someone that
you know what the fuck they were doing
could be good, right?
There were some concepts that could have worked
but in general it was like
you took a premise that was way beyond
your ability and you just
exactly because you're trying to reach
for whatever you don't understand
and just make up an explanation
and then whenever you realize it doesn't work
you throw in a car chase.
Jesus
How David Cage of you
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So Lucy
I got the irony of that tagline
considering this movie like
fuck.
That being said, Lucy dominated
the fucking box office.
Look at it!
I can explain to you why
because this weekend
you gave me a free pass, thank you for that ticket
to go see the movie.
Right? It was for any movie.
For any movie. And we sat there and we were looking at
and nothing else is on.
There's nothing to see. You know what?
You probably would have scoffed at it
but Hercules got better reviews than Lucy.
Really? I will go see that one. Hercules is like
it's dumb fun. Like if you like the
Mummy movies go see Hercules. Okay.
Because it's just we looked at all these posters
but there's nothing to watch. I guess let's go see the loop
best song thing. I hear that guy's pretty good
and I liked Leon the professional.
Yeah, well right. And then
he doesn't like Leon the professional.
No one. No one.
Okay, but who does like Leon the professional?
The guys that made Onimusha.
No! The response
is everyone!
Everyone!
I softballed that.
Sorry, sorry.
It was a confusing softball.
I know, I screwed it up. I screwed it up to set up.
You should have said it softly like everyone.
Everyone?
Yeah. Okay.
That's that. Now, why don't you guys
tell me about the Destiny Beta?
Well first, but before that, I wanted
to segue from
I think
you were talking about something that its high
concept is beyond the writer's
ability to deliver on.
So, Leon, you were telling me
that you've been keeping up with sword art.
Yeah.
Why? Did you catch up?
No, I couldn't.
Is this a segment now?
Sure.
I was just like, you would just tell them.
And now, living in the database
with Liam and Pat.
Database. Database.
Database.
Wow.
Wow.
That refuses to watch it.
Because I'm the only one that sees
no merit in watching something
that's still terrifying.
No, you just need to watch the song.
No, also that.
The song with the lyrics in front of you.
The database.
I watched up to episode 4
and it's like, there's a new main character
they introduced in this season
and she is infinitely more interesting
than any other character in the show.
Yes, I'll believe that.
And every time Kirito comes back on screen
The original main character.
She does something incredibly Mary Sue.
And it is at a point
where I am just laughing.
So willheartedly and ironically
I don't think he's doing
because the gimmicks they're playing
are so blatant.
That makes him such a Mary Sue.
So there's this big thing where you can
transfer your character between MMOs.
Which is a really cool idea actually.
What an interesting premise.
Exactly. So he gets to this MMO
where everyone uses guns.
You buy companies like money.
Who to thunk it?
He gets to this game where everyone's using guns
and he's like, but I want to use a sword.
No, look, and he's amazing with the sword.
Because he's practicing it.
He's the main character.
But prior to getting the sword
he needs money.
Shut up.
Well, fuck this movie.
So she's like, yeah, you can get money for it.
Why?
Kirito, why is the name of the show SAO?
That's the first MMO
is sword art.
The second MMO is Alphine
and the third MMO is Gun Gale.
So he needs to get money.
So there's this game that's extremely hard
that nobody can beat. This minigame.
And it's so tuned
to his specific abilities
that he's gathered.
It's like you can see them writing it to the character.
And then he jumps on this vehicle
grabbing the girl by the hand
and drives this vehicle.
And she's like, how can you ride this?
They're so hard to ride.
And he's like, because I used to play race.
But he's got a motorcycle.
He's got a motorcycle with a helmet in real life.
He is such a Mary Sue.
It's hilarious.
The new girl is...
You're saying if this was completely its own thing?
If Kirito was not in it,
this might be fine,
actually.
But holy shit.
Every time he's on screen, just
That's what the writer said
when he was writing it.
Fucking nothing.
Eventually,
I got to get you to stare into this abyss.
No, I watched the intro and that was enough.
No, that was Log Horizon.
That's different.
Different show entirely.
I'm not even going to do that.
You watched like Devil May Cry 2
just to feel it.
I told you the only way you guys can make me do that
is if you actually trick me
and not say in a facial conversation
look at the sword art thing.
No.
That's some clever way.
Like that time I walked in here and
what was that show?
Oh, because we were doing the promo
for Anime North.
Queen's Blade.
Oh, God.
It was in Matt's favorites, so we just popped it over.
Yeah, it was like that.
It's got that girl from What's His What's His.
The samurai showdown.
The one you like so much.
Which girl?
The one with the pseudo-mane outfit.
Oh, the girl with the blades in Samurai showdown
that was in Samurai Shrine
when we did the Fist of Constance.
The one with the blade.
Sure.
I was going to segue differently.
It's terrible.
I was going to say...
Did you read Seconds?
Not yet.
He read Seconds.
No downtime since we got back.
Alright, so fuck it. Let's just talk about the Destiny Beta.
It's pretty good.
I'll talk about Seconds after.
I had a lot of fun with that beta.
Destiny shaping up to be a really good game.
Not a fucking blow your pants off.
A smaller game than originally anticipated.
A smaller game than originally anticipated.
Much smaller.
But despite that, still like
30 plus hours solid.
It'll be...
You guys got in there, you made your little character.
I made a space warlock.
I was throwing space magic.
I had a space robot girl
who was talking shit.
I also picked a robot.
Yeah.
Robots are cool.
It's a fun game.
It's Halo lands.
That's it.
That's what it is.
And if you're okay with that, fine.
But if you expected it to be World of Warcraft,
Halo,
then you're in for a fucking rude disappointment.
For sure.
Rude awakening.
You're all convinced and going to be on board on day one?
Day one.
Cool, cool, cool.
I was going to say seconds.
Wow, what a really good comic
that just super falters right near the end.
Seconds is the new Brian Leo Malley book.
Yeah, exactly.
When we went to Conor Bravo,
I picked it up.
I read it on the train.
The space train that we were on.
I read it on the plane.
And then you guys also picked it up.
Here's what you guys think.
If you think it's the same thing as for me.
Where I was like, it's really good.
Like the first half and then it kind of just
goes off the rails.
I thought the fourth and fifth sixths
of the book were a wreck.
Because I liked the ending.
And I liked more the first half.
They were erect.
A wreck.
So the first half of the third act.
The first half of the third act?
Yeah, a bit more than the first half of the third act.
Exactly.
It just got messy.
The word I used, I was like, this is messy.
I have a bunch of ideas.
I need someone to help me
put them in there.
And it sucks because I adored the first
everything up until then I adored it.
And the ending was pretty R2.
Trying not to set my expectations.
No, absolutely.
It's good though.
It's a shame that it's not.
Again, I did see
the Con Bravo guy.
He did a little
post and he was basically saying
it's a lot more like Lost at Sea than it is like Scott Pilgrim.
So if you're a fan of Lost at Sea
you'll probably be more
prepared.
I know what you're saying, but it's still messy.
I haven't read Lost at Sea and you're telling me
it's a lot different than Scott Pilgrim.
But when I read Seconds I'm like, it wasn't all that
much different from Scott Pilgrim to me
with how the characters speak.
Especially the main characters.
That's like a Kevin Smith or Tarantino thing.
Like Brian Lee is never not going to sound like
Brian Lee.
It's like the main character of Seconds
is almost indistinguishable from
Scott. It's the same manic
whatever.
Weird hipster.
Funny character, but
has almost less
depth than Scott.
Almost an incredible
thing.
But Scott's a black hole of anti-death.
He's one book.
As opposed to Scott's six.
Unrelated but related.
Did you see that picture of Michael
Sarah as Jotaro
dodging the kiss from
the girl in the movie that he's in by any chance?
It's a hilarious thing.
It sounds great.
He and his co-star in this movie were fooling around
and she tries to kiss him and he leans
way the fuck over.
He's almost at a 90 degree angle like this
and his face is just like, and someone just put
a hat on it.
It's hilarious.
I think I'm going to hold on to really good.
I'll find it so that the people listening to the
podcast can also hear us
find me in it. The only other thing I really did
this week of like significance.
Besides cooking up a storm
which was really fun for the
stream was I played Oddworld
which just came out.
What an impeccable port.
It's like a full remake of the game.
Did they fix the difficulty?
Yeah.
The normal difficulty of the old one is hard
now and there's a normal and an easy
of the best remake
I've ever played. It is so above
and on.
It fixes things.
It fixes things.
It makes everything better.
That's a really funny picture.
It fixes
things, makes it better.
It plays smoother. It looks better.
It sounds better. Nothing about it is worse
than the old one.
For those of you listening at home
if you type in Michael, Sarah,
Jotaro, it's the first result.
Perfect.
If anyone likes platformers and would want
a hard, very
non-traditional kind of 2D platformer
It's very weird.
You could say it's odd even.
Oddworld, really fucking good.
It's on PS4 now.
The Vita and PS3 are coming out soon
but I don't know about the other.
Oddworld games, they're just like
so fucking weird.
They're just like
coming at you with
weird shit and I really appreciate it.
Can I pray to learn landing that
The Stranger's Wrath remake gets that treatment too?
If they ever do it?
If they ever do it.
They're doing Munch's Odyssey now.
To be fair, they already did that
before.
The crazy future one.
I would love for a future remake of
The Stranger's Wrath down the line for sure.
With as many improvements to it
as there are to this one.
I'd be like Godlike.
Yeah, you're the best.
Go play that game.
Dude, aside from
stuff that we've been doing for the channel
and the Nuzlocke and all that
and I played Destiny
but I didn't do much of nothing this week.
To be honest.
I didn't really watch anything.
I just kind of was tired.
Oh, I guess
I can play anything even.
No, you just sat in your pocket.
I just read Gaff.
But that's as good as playing games with it.
It's the same thing.
I spent way too much time
in those Last of Us threads about the shadow
difference in the 30s and 60s.
You would, you would.
Like, what Lilium said just now.
Earlier I was like, hey, did you know
if you swap it down to 30, you get better shadows?
Not knowing that that was just like
a loom up with this huge debunk.
And it was debunked.
That was way too passionate for something
I don't really care about.
And I'm constantly checking my phone
to see if the second digital foundry
or if you played what you said,
if you played Last of Us at 33%
If you played the new Last of Us
or if you played the original Last of Us
you really only played half of the remake.
And by that token
if you play the PS4 version
it's as good as two plates or the original.
Because there's twice the frame rate.
You only played it half.
There you go.
So since you don't have much of a week
I'm just going to jump in with a question.
I don't want to jump in with a question.
Are you going to talk about sword art?
Are you going to play the game when it comes out later this month?
I don't know.
I keep hearing that that game is super awesome.
Exactly.
But how much of the story is in there?
It takes place between floors 70 and 100.
Okay, do I have to play this?
Oh my god, is this Tartarus?
Is there a Tartarus in sword art?
You should probably watch sword art!
You should probably watch it.
Because you're going to have the same thing that happened to me
where you're going to be like
Oh, this premise!
Oh, this is so good!
Oh my god, everything's so bad!
Oh, the premise!
But do you get to play as Eggil?
No, you play as Kirito.
But Kirito is like a custom character in this one.
So whatever. I want to play as Eggil.
I want to play more about sword art.
But really it's good too.
I guess I'll also like
just how I can go.
Liam, I have bought my tickets for Japan.
Hey, awesome! Sick!
When are you going again?
I'm leaving on the 27th of
August.
No, sorry, September, sorry.
August! Because that would have been bad!
That's really bad.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
That would have been bad for two gigantic creatures.
Wow, awesome. That's really soon.
So yeah, going to try to figure that shit out.
Apparently,
you actually need to know Japanese.
So, a bit.
I have
just enough weeb to make my way.
Can I give you some money to pick up some stuff for me?
That you missed? Absolutely.
So now that that's out there,
I guess I should come clean and say that
I've also bought my tickets to Japan.
Hey, hey, hey!
Weave now for October 14th.
We're the Nippon Bros.
You'll just come back and
I'll be getting the fuck out of here.
Man, you guys are really getting in there.
Have fun in Cuba.
For vacation.
You...
You beat us!
You beat us?
I got nothing, I got nothing.
Well, I hope you have a fucking good time.
It's an awesome place. I really do hope I have a good time too.
You will. Where are you staying?
It's in Osaka and I can't wait to ride the ship.
Osaka? Sure, absolutely.
Hell yeah.
Are you going to go downtown to Osaka Castle?
Yeah, get in there with those giant Oni
and fucking stare at them
and hope that they don't come to life like in my enemies.
You want them to come to life!
Sort of. You want it!
But then Nagoya Gundam will save us all.
You want Bishamontem to come down
and say you're worthy!
That would be amazing.
Are you going to try to go to Tokyo?
Of course.
I'm going to go there and I don't go to Akihabara.
Then what the fuck am I doing?
You need to go to Super Potato.
I'm going to start a running gag
that I will then finish
and confuse the shop owner.
So Liam failed in his task.
So it's up to Pat and Liam to actually...
So now that Liam has failed...
It's up to Pat and Liam.
Sorry, it's up to Pat and Woolly to complete this task.
Because I need to deliver
an I stay in the suicide forest
for a night video.
And get that for me.
You've failed at that.
It's a legal song.
Guess what?
I'm preemptively failing this task.
Well, it's up to you.
I'll walk around and then
fucking bitch make a ghost.
Forgive me, motherfucker!
As he gets arrested...
By a really nervous Japanese cop.
A lot of those older,
deader ghosts
will think you're like a scary monster.
Like a scary monster.
Like Japanese ghosts.
Please don't call me that.
That makes me really uncomfortable, you guys.
Excuse me, my son.
Some Japanese ghost looks at Woolly.
Yoroshiku, bitches!
Some Japanese ghost looks at Woolly
and he's like Gouki!
Yeah, we'll see what's up.
We'll see what's up.
Matt, I hear you saw a movie last night.
I saw quite a few movies.
I don't get it.
I like that. That's pretty good.
I hear you saw a movie last night with me.
I didn't hear it me,
because you started laughing.
Thank you for the ticket, by the way.
I saw a bunch of movies this week
since the Fantasia Film Festival.
It's not too far.
I saw a movie called The Honeymoon,
which stars, I forget her name, Rose or something.
The girl that played the Wild Lean
in Game of Thrones.
And it's just a simple like,
with my new fiancé,
and then the guy wakes up one night
and she's just sleepwalking in the forest
and acting really weird.
And the rest is like this dread-filled
like, oh, what the fuck is happening here.
Because she starts acting really weird.
She starts writing in a notebook
over and over.
My name is this. I'm married to him.
That's the main goal.
My name is this. I'm married to this guy.
And he goes, why are you writing
what you know?
Nothing. And she's got weird
like, wounds on her inner thighs,
like near her goodies.
And he's like, what are those?
And she's like, it's nothing. It's just,
I got bit by, and it just goes on and on.
It's not jump scares. It's just like,
tension.
What the fuck.
Unease. Just bad ending
for everyone.
Not a feel good.
Was it a good movie? It was an incredible movie.
I was like, holy shit, it's really good.
And then I saw
an Irish
religious horror movie.
This one was a fucking trip.
Called Let Us Pray.
And it started Liam Cunningham, the guy
that's also in Game of Thrones.
This wasn't the zombie.
It's the Davos movie.
Yeah, he is the one
that consults
Stanis. For those that don't remember his name
because I never remember his name.
Is there a priest in this movie?
Is there just a giant potato with a cross
around his neck?
And it's got a bomb in it.
Is there a bomb in it?
Did someone put it there?
But the Game of Thrones guy
plays basically death
and he goes around
as soon as someone gets near him
all their sins flash through their minds
and they're like, holy shit, what the fuck was that?
And he's like, it's coming.
It's coming. And then they put him in jail
with other convicts, like the little holding
cells and he goes like
this guy did this, this guy did this
and he makes them all kill themselves
and like, oh, won't get too much into this one
but someone's head is killed with a police
battering ram.
That's a very punisher-esque
It's a very punisher-esque thing.
It was pretty good.
So wait, this villain is just a walking
Shangogusatsu? Yeah, basically.
Kind of.
And he just goes around and I can't understand
half the movie because them Irish
and thick and fast.
They were round and round the re-road?
Yes, they were round and round the re-road.
Exactly. It was all pretty good
and then, well, you got caught wind of this
but Dead Snow 2
Red vs. Dead
is probably one of the most fun
zombie movies I've ever seen. And we've seen it all.
I heard the first one was a good time too.
The first one was alright, nothing super special
but still good and this one
was like, okay, let's just, alright
so Nazi zombies, that's the premise.
Right, right. We've all heard of this.
How do you defeat Nazi zombies?
Well, you get the power to resurrect zombies yourself
and then you go up into the mountains of Russia
and get the Russians that fought those Nazi
zombies and bring them back.
And the main Russian zombie
is a seven foot tall red bearded guy
and he has a knocked down
fist fight with the head
of the Nazi zombies
and the movie just gets mad capped.
It's really fun. I was telling him about a scene
where the main guy
of the movie is fighting with the head
of the Nazi zombie in a car
and the Nazi zombie's arm gets cut off
and he had to cut off his arm earlier
because he got bit and he's like, this is the only way
to solve it. I won't get turned into a zombie.
But these aren't shambling
dumb zombies. They're cursed, undead
guys. They're magic zombies.
So they have a plan, they're smart, whatever
and then he's in the hospital
and his car crashes and then they go
oh, you severed
your arm and really started to hear that
yeah, where am I? And they go, but
fortunately we found your severed arm
in the car with you.
It was weird, it was kind of pale
but we just reattached it and he has
the Nazi zombie's arm
that's how he gets the power to resurrect things
and he can't control the arm. It's fucking liquid.
Okay.
Liquid and off spot and the arm
starts punching and killing people
he takes a scalpel, kills his doctor
immediately and he goes
I'm sorry, this
isn't what it looks like
as his arm is slashing everyone.
It's like a more elaborate version of Ash's hand.
Yes, exactly. And a little ginger
kid comes up to him later.
Later in the night and goes, hey, what's that?
That's a weird zombie arm. What are you doing?
Oh my god, I'll take pictures of this and send it to the
zombie group in the US
and they'll come check it out. Oh my god, it's still cool
he's really annoying or whatever and he helps the guy escape
and then the guy, the kid's like hey
look at me, look at me. The guy just back
hands the kid out of the
building
crashes through the wall and he looks down
and he goes oh shit and he jumps down
there and then he starts to pound on the
kid's chest like be alive
and then he pounds the kid and then blood
just splashes him and he goes
oh and he's trying to put the organs
back in and then the cops
that are investigating all this stuff
they look out the window and they see him
and he looks up and he's got only organs
and he's like this isn't what it
looks like
it was just insanity
I like the bit
I like the bit you told me about
where they siphon gas
using a guy's fucking intestines
the nazi zombies
see an old tank and then they're like
there's a segment to be discovered here
the nazi zombies find an old tank and they're like
we need to get this filled up with fuel
we want to use this for our nazi
like you know terror squad here
and then they take out innocent guys
intestines and put it in the gas tank
of a car
bring the other side of the intestines
into the tank start sucking on the intestines
to siphon it and they're like
we're good to go
that's the one place I think that
I haven't seen zombies going yet
even though we're getting tired of them
is good zombies
on your side to help you
and it was a high fight
you know last samurai
those types of two armies
they had that
really good and then me and Liam like you said
we saw the angry video game
well you used last samurai as the example
but that was actually a bunch of samurai running into bullets
well there was one scene where
guys had
anyway yes you're right
and those were muskets
I do remember
they had a gallon gun but they all said muskets
so we saw their video game
their movie and me a lot of
people were concerned because
when you saw the trailer it was like alright
he made the movie cool
but this seems to have a lot of stuff
that is not
associated with the angry like
there's a little
teenage sidekick there's a girl sidekick
there's a two girl characters
there's a two girl characters
so yeah the first half hour is actually really good
they had a sense of energy and it sets up the angry video game nerd
his boss working at the game store was hilarious
his boss
like the first half hour has a certain energy too
and I'm like this is good
and then it hits this middle portion
and as soon as they introduce this military
presence they're like what are you doing
in this area landfill trying to find ET cartridges
that's what it all kind of goes
like the movie's quality
it's way overwritten with too many
gross jokes
and there actually was an intriguing
almost too complex plot about why
ET is so bad is because
since it was made in five weeks
they actually have the guy that created ET for the Atari 2600
show up in the movie
explains the reason why it's so bad is because
it's encoded with special messages
and that's why the game is barely a game
because it was just a delivery device
for this ancient alien metal
like that's what I mean
that's what really happened?
that's what the movie explains
that's the movie's narrative about why it's like that
Microsoft has those messages now
that would be true
but there were like a lot of
scenes and a lot of jokes that I thought were
really really funny
remember there was a one scene where
Angry Buddha getting into a rick's-up
and he just had a hard playstation
with the Nintendo exercise mat
and a guy's downstairs listening
and you go, Harder! Harder! Go faster!
and then she gets down on all fours
and she starts smacking her hands
the dumbest sex joke ever
and then Angry Buddha goes, No, don't use your hands
that's cheating
he goes, No, I'm using my hands
ow, ow, and it's just one of those dumb sex jokes
but what?
and it was somehow like actually
and then when he wakes up
the little like black teenage
sidekick kid goes, What?
you're hanging out with your girlfriend now
and then the angry gamer's in bed and he gets up and he goes
oh, fuck off!
and for some reason that was super funny
I was like one of those like
shuddering and trying to keep my laugh
cause no one else in the theater loved it
you and I were looking at each other like
oh, fuck off!
oh, fuck off!
it was really funny and but
William mentioned there's two female characters
that are not rich very well
they're just bad characters
and like
I'm not usually one to like stick up for this kind of thing
but even though they make a meta-joke
where they're like, now we're gonna have to have a cat fight
you know what I'm saying?
like no, just don't do it
instead of making the meta-joke
just make the meta-joke and then not do it
or something
that's what I think
we're terrible the whole way through the movie
complete trash characters
no, it was the worst cat fight I have ever seen
shit
but her death in hard ticket to Miami
her death scene was
her death scene was hilarious because
now we're just spoiling everything then
I didn't say who's death scene
there's two characters
okay, there's a death scene that's hilarious
we should know by now that Matt
like just spoils
shit
it's barely a spoiler
it's not for me, it's for the audience
get good at watching
it's not out yet
it actually is
this is as out as it will be
there's no Blu-ray thing
anyway
anyway
there was a cool kaiju sequence
there's all this fun stuff
it's clearly stuff that he loves
and he wanted to put it in there
and overall like at the end
of the backer thing
there was a calvocate of names to thank
so what do you put during that scene
of the credits
huge credits
he just reviews ET for the Atari 2600
it was a great classic old style
AVGN review of the game
that made me laugh at several points
it was a lot like Raiders of the Lost Ark of 2600
which is way more complicated
than an Atari 2600 game
has any fucking right to be
he actually makes totally valid points
in his last little summary
where ET's actually totally not the worst game ever
it's complicated
it's hard, it's frustrating
but people say it's the worst game ever
there's stuff that was at least last week
that's worse
like Aquaman
Aquaman
there's interesting stuff in the movie
I think there were kind of
also what hurts it is the ability
not to actually name games
or have companies
you can't mention like
Activision
you can't mention LJN
sorry
they have fake footage of video games
that are clearly games that he's played on
can you say Sobi
can you say Activision
they don't work at GameStop
they work at GameCops
Famitendo
no one ever says the word Nintendo
or Sony or Microsoft
they say Atari
who's going to stop that?
yeah it was going to stop
but like
I enjoyed it overall
but like it could use a medanine
it could use some like snow
it wasn't perfect but it was nice to see it
are you just like internally
like in mad at info games
right now? a little bit
a little bit but I also
remember because I heard the little
little peep you made a second ago
about like
Jinger's in movies
dying out more than black people
or at a comparable level
would you say it's comparable?
I don't like I said that
and I feel like it's the case
because I can't pull that many out
but I have a feeling
if you look at the percentage
it's probably similar
but they don't put Jinger's in movies
you know what
you're wrong because
if you take leprechaun
back to the hood
that's one Jinger killing
every black guy on earth
right? so what?
so where's
the black slasher flick
in Ireland?
were all the children of the corn Jinger?
no they're blonde blue eyes
blonde blue eyes
I want to say that maybe candy man
went to Ireland at some point
so the real question is
find Jinger's in movies
I don't mean people with red hair either
I mean Jinger
the only one I can think of is Kirsten Dunst
Dunst
he's actually blonde
great
Emma Stone isn't
did you just watch Spider-Man?
is that all you got?
no I did not
Emma Stone is a blonde too
we're rare
we're rare
I'm a little rare
the girls are coming
redhead girls are coming
redhead guys not so much
they get rid of us
the yearly cullings
the purge
pat your argument
would be that
there are more Jinger deaths
but they're all off camera
remember Armageddon
in the scene in the beginning
when all those buildings are exploding?
all of them
I'm literally thinking of Armageddon
of course
you don't want to miss a thing
so who's ready for
creepy chicken portal holes?
I am
that shit's nuts
it looks great
in fact you made this happen
he made this happen
I don't know what the fuck they're talking about
introducing Lana
the new character that's really
scared of chickens
of course
that new Hyrule Warriors trailer
with Lana having a portal
open up and just like
an army of flesh eating cuckoos
chasing her
I can't believe they just threw in a character like that
you know she's been announced for weeks
right?
I think since almost
E3
she's been around for a bit
there's Shia as well
Agatha
being thrown into there
Luto
those are some pics
but there's also Shia
who's an original character
it's like a cute chick
that's the villain
I'm asked to get playable characters
she's probably gonna be playable
the trailer made it seem
the enemies
they're getting the same intro as the Hyrule Warriors
but when you watch it
so we're gonna get playable
to your aim?
no he's not he's in the game but you're fighting him
exactly but what Liam is saying
is that bosses are playable in these games
well because you're fighting army vs army
it's never army vs boss
character
it's Tautau vs Lubu
they're just on different sides
but we have seen the big
Skyward Sword
oh of course you're not gonna play as the
the Demise
whatever
the big tall black whatever
it's got a cool name actually
it does have a cool name
what's the over under
on Lubu being in this game
I fucking hope that's gonna be the great
could you imagine
if the first words
Link ever says
our whole shit it's Lubu
do not pursue Lubu
that trailer is just
amazing
so much going on
and Link getting that whole new weapon
that makes some suplex giant pillars
when he pulls out the master sword
he pulls out the master sword
and it looks like he's already got another sword
on his back
but you saw that in the trailer
he's also got his regular
soldier clothes he doesn't even have the tunic
yeah normally he doesn't have the clothes
he looks like a Templar
so is he gonna have
the master sword and the hero sword
well he's gonna start with the hero sword
presumably
and the goddess blade
that's gonna be nuts man
I don't know if he's ever gonna do a wield he could
but he has to start with the normal one
and then get the master sword
as his tradition
that being said with all these weird outside picks
like Princess Ruto and Darunian
it's like just fucking announced Gruus already
Gruus has attacked
and had more combat prowess
than Princess Ruto or Darunia
you need to write
you need to write to the White House
and get petitions signed
you know what I think Obama would support this
I'm probably pretty alone on this one
but I really want Ralph from Oracle of Ages
to be in
who is like your rival character
for the game kind of and he's got a sword
and a hat as well
but we notice that of all the dimensions they jump around
I could see them pulling
I could see them pulling
I wouldn't have heard neither of them
the fucking
the item guy from
Link to Live Between Worlds
what's his name
he looks like a nabbit
I could see that guy being
thrown as a little playable character
with a joke moveset of all those weapons
maybe this is dumb
and I haven't been following this game as closely
as I could have
but has Ganon showed up yet?
not yet
not this game if there's no Ganon in this door
that's the big final reveal
most likely
of these Virgil
we're doing a setup to all Zelda games
and the Triforce of Power is not in it
come on
there's one Zelda
there's one Zelda but she has all the different costumes
oh yeah Sheik if you consider that
playable Sheik
her new costumes
I hope that the feeling
of using her in Smash
translates into this
I doubt it
of the loose high jumping
you know what I mean the really fast ninja
I doubt it I seriously doubt it
do characters even have jumps in this one?
I don't know I don't remember
I can't remember if characters even have jumps in this one
just let her feel like that
you know what
just letting her feel like a cool ninja
she is a cool ninja
that's what she'll probably be
but she uses the harp in this one
do you see that
the notes bring people in
it's crazy
no man that trailer was fucking
awesome
it's where those gameplay trailers are just like five minutes of gameplay
five minutes of content
five minutes of new stuff
how minute is it when your new character shows up
and is humming the Zelda theme to herself
Lana's great
what does that even mean
Zelda theme exists in Zelda
it does exist in you
it does exist
they play Zelda's lullaby in the gameplay
like obviously
it's just a fun reference but it does exist in universe
remember when T people teach you the song
yes it does
I mean obviously this is a send up
but like
I think it's so good she's great
I can't wait to use her
did you see her cube attacks
they are fucking on
it's the cube girl
reminds me of Tetris girl from Neo Geo
the partner
whatcha gonna call it
the
the website
did it update and have any
extra question marks on it
did you have it checked
I haven't checked back to see but like now that they've announced
I missed eight characters now
I'm wondering if there's more
boxes
I'd be really surprised
that this was the whole list
no there's gonna be more
it's picked people that
I think when we were talking about it
we were like oh he can have this this
and it's got like Sheik and all that but did anyone say
Princess Ruto did anyone say Darunia
no I didn't
I fucking loved Darunia
but all those guys that help you in Twilight Princess
the bar
you'd have full of them
and on the fucking flip side
of the hype trailer coin
you guys probably didn't click on the trailer
for Firefly online
oh I thought you were gonna say tech and stuff
I thought you were gonna say tech and stuff
is that the mobile game or whatever
it's gonna be on PC2
oh is it
don't click on that trailer
is it Pachenko
it's the trailer that has to hire
a bunch of people to talk to you
about what they would do
as a space captain
god damn it
they're intercutting it with footage
pretty good so they gotta pepper it up
with this
and then they actually got Nathan in there
for a little bit at the end
do you miss Firefly then just go see Firefly 2
Guardians of the Galaxy
it's got a raccoon in it
it just guardians the galaxy
it's just no critic has the balls to be like
no it's Brad
it's fucking 100%
no now it's back up to us
how
did someone go and
redact his 98 to a 1
more people came over
the scale in
so that it came less than 1%
I get it so it tilted it but that's too funny
that it went back up
tech and 7
I didn't even watch the full extended trailer
I just watched that trailer
I am more and more
willing to believe that Harada did not
want to show tech and 7 at Evo
because they originally planned for something else
but a lot of people were saying
oh no it sounded like a joke in his tone
and I don't speak Japanese fluently
I don't speak it well at all
but now that we've seen the shit trailer
it's like you would not use such a
shit teaser for a
shit trailer for an upcoming
release that's not going to show up yet
this is the extended one
we're talking about that has twice as much
footage as Evo
it's actually twice as much
but the same amount of
nothing
it's just more nothing
so that just means that there should be
also guys
tech and cross street fighter not cancelled
show that instead
I don't believe you
it's not can do
stop stop
because if you know what I'll believe him
when he says that and shows me a screen
so when they tell you
when he literally tells you
years ago
we're going to tell you that this game exists
but it's not happening
for a very long time
please forget about it
when these words come out
is that not good enough?
it was then
but later when during all the tech and
tag 2 interviews
when Harada was asked what's going on
tech and cross street fighters
he said I don't want to talk about that right now
we're pushing tech and tag 2
which is fair yes
please ask us after
tech and tag 2 has come out
then we will be ready to talk about tech
and cross street fighter
and now we are all the way over to tech and 7
and still no tech and cross
street fighter
because he's saying it's not cancelled there's still working on it
but if you say
don't ask me now
ask me later
and I ask you later
and you say
I don't believe you anymore
until you show me proof
so the game's cancelled
would you rather
a nothing trailer like you just got?
no I'd rather nothing
and then a week before the game comes out
they announce it
whatever
we're moving forward exactly
but I will say this
the other piece of tech news that you guys should be happy about
is the fact that Harada came out and said
I think I know exactly what this is
and I am happy about it
we're trying to make tech and 7 easy to approach
because a lot of fans skipped TTTT
because it was too difficult to learn two characters
yes
so you guys should have an angle in
on 7
I prefer one character
and here's the thing
when you actually do know 2
it makes it really good
but tech and 7
you still have that wall to climb
I agree with you
I prefer to have one fighter
I agree
and obviously if you're that good
it would be way better
I'm okay with learning multiple characters from Marvel
even Street Fighter Cross Tekken
but any Tekken character
any of them has a move list
longer than 6 characters in those games
and it is so hard
to remember all the moves
and Soul Calibur 5 was a step towards
simplifying 3D games
and Soul Calibur 5 kicks ass
so the theory is
tech and 7 is going to follow a similar approach
this is going to upset a lot of
tech and faithfuls of course
imagine if a bunch of really good normals were just gone
but what I'm
worried is that when it says
the conclusion of the Mishima
like bullshit whatever
and it says unreal engine
just straight up
and I'm like okay
here's the thing is that I really think after
tech and 5 after tech and 6
TTT of like 60 character
rosters where I'm like fuck this
I don't have the time
I kinda wanted another
tech and 4 in the sense or a tech and 3
where it's like
in terms of roster
and changes and instead of
having 60 characters
you don't want the fucking pitchforks out your window
I would have appreciated
a next gen time warp
as well
I wouldn't be surprised if we head in a
MK10 direction with like
that's what I want
time jump
cause tech and 3 was a time jump
and it kicked ass that it was a time jump
and like characters felt fresh even if they had
their movesets like they were like long
and martial or whatever
there's just new characters and I feel like this isn't going to be that
I feel like it's going to be another 40
character roster but a big part
of what assisted
that really fond memory of tech and 3
was the fact that it was so much better
than tech and 2
which was great in its own right
and then tech and 3 was like that
perfect
not arcade perfect but arcade feel
perfect I guess
it became the best selling fighting game of all
time
I love it
I think it's franchise
but it doesn't matter
the ultimate thing though is just going to be like
whenever we see that character select screen
then we'll know cause 7 might even be that
they said Mishima things
but we don't know what the roster is going to look like
so please get excited
cross your fingers
I'd rather have 20 awesome unique characters
than
20 awesome unique characters and then another
20 that are all the same
and you might get that here
but just remember
that the other side of your opinion is
a whole lot of people that like
the people they like
from the old series
I totally understand that
but there's like the last 3 games have been that
where it's every single character
and also tech and
what's the free to play one
the free to play one is also the same cast
but does I have all the characters
it's the same kind of cast
they're just missing some people
no it's missing but I mean it's the same cast
like it's not a future one
it's not a past one
it's just missing a few and it's got vampire realm
when Zazz will know
because everyone wants Zazz
the only character to be just straight up removed
from Soul Calibur
and you know what I didn't hate him
I liked him
the 3DS one also has the exact same cast
oh you mean tech and for the 3DS
it already came out
so like actually like the last 5 games
the last 5 tech and games have all been
that
but Lars though
we have this discussion you know
it's the same thing with Street Fighter
and it's a difficult decision
you make 3rd strike
do you go for what people
do you go for what the larger
larger outside core wants
or do you try to do both
I'd say go half half
I'd say 3rd strike went too far
and Street Fighter
Street Fighter 4 didn't go far enough
maybe New Generation went too far
yeah New Generation went too far
and Street Fighter 4 didn't go nearly far enough
keep the meat
I remember
if New Generation wasn't even going to be that
New Generation wasn't even going to have
Ryu Candidate
but don't forget too that like it took
fucking 10 years for us to feel
so close to all those 3rd strike characters
that we wanted them back
because the time it passed
at the time nobody liked 12
nobody liked any of them
it was really really exciting
I liked Q the minute I saw him
sure but Q was in Street Fighter 2
it's true
so the background of Ken's stage
there he is
he's wearing different costumes depending on
what version you're playing
there he is
I'm really excited for that
even though I'm not like super technical
into Tekken as much as I am with other
fighting games I really hope that
because it's on PS4 and Xbox One
and PC it won't have fucking
framerate issues like Tekken Tag 2 did
where like you do an attack
with Raven and you just kill the game's
framerate
the game dynamically shifting resolution
was like
the king of the framerate
rock solidness
in fighting games it matters
it always matters
fam last of us we already covered
that little thing or whatever
also
the movie
is now a little bit more concrete
and word on the street
is they are talking to
Aria from Game of Thrones
to be Ellie
wait it's not two original characters
I was under the impression
it's gonna be straight up the game
and we already do know
as well that there was plans
to
change the ending
for movie audiences
and then Sam Raimi talked him out of it
he basically said
no don't change it
I know I kind of burned
all my goodwill with that
ultra cynical view of Tekken
Cross Street Fighter but when you say
this movie is more concrete
do I need to pull up
all the promo shots
and huge ads and posters for the
canon lynch movie?
all I mean is that
this was like
rumors of news and stuff
it was like at the comic con
they said this is a thing that's
and here's some stuff about it
there is a key difference too
which is that this and the newly renewed
announcement of the Uncharted film
are of course Sony Pictures
so they actually have a bigger stake in it
Sony Pictures
literally has produced zero movies
based on their video game
this goes back like almost 10 years
where a God of War movie was announced
much the same way as this one
we have a director with like promo shots
no promo shots
a bit more concrete but with
the Metal Gear thing
Metal Gear still
like 2 years past the point
and I am so
okay with that
the most concrete video game movie news
was the Warcraft because Warcraft had
a fucking panel and it
remains in development
and it has a release date
one of the reasons I'm more willing to believe
is I believe it was CES this year
which I watch CES because I'm a nerd
don't bother watching it
anyway I watched everyone's
panel and Sony during their thing
the pictures guy said we're going to work
closer with our other
groups within the company
to get our films moving
and it's such an
oversight
I understand the bubble logic
of like until it's in front of me
it doesn't exist I know that's how
you think about things
I think though that a lot of these big
name movie announces we're seeing
that's somewhat myopic
like I didn't say it but you
know yes but I think
that a lot of these movies are
like big name things they're announced
they're happening and they're taking their
fucking time with it because we're probably
going to hit a place in maybe 2 to 3
years where we won't make comics
well video game movies are back
and they'll be in and they'll
be hot yeah watchdogs
and they'll all be hitting in the same
span of years I agree with
that that being said do you
honestly believe this
movie has greater than a 50%
chance of actually coming I believe
it has less I think
it does I'd say I believe
it's hovering around maybe
at best 5%
oh no I'm like at 30
that's really okay
hey hey let me remind you
I've say hello
didn't get a movie
because the movie studios
do not have enough
faith in video games
that being said I watched
that being said
that being said I watched the trailer
this week for Halo Nightfall
produced by Ridley Scott
like it just falls apart let me run that back
this week I watched the trailer for Halo
Nightfall produced by Ridley Scott
this week but Halo
here we go
that's not the movie
yes you're right that estimate
is really really low
but I've watched a shit ton
of game movies and they're all
garbage but then I also
kept up for years and years
and years oh for
every optioning
and we're gonna make this we're gonna make
Metroid we're gonna make
Uncharted with
the fucking it's gonna be a
rip off of the Nicholas Cage like
National Tournament and it's like
99%
of these announcements
go nowhere and they get
as far as ads
for movies that haven't even
started reproduction
we still we're not on the set
or on the production team so we don't
know the actual numbers so there's no
point in actually like debating you know how far
along because it's like we'll figure
it always has a chance of not happening
also Sony has
I mean the heavenly sword movie looks like
they have the Sly Cooper one which is gonna be
in theaters and they have the Ratchet and Clank
Ratchet which is in theaters next spring
that's why I raised it to 5%
over zero you know the difference
do that Ratchet and Clank
and Sly are super
easy to make because you can say it's
not based on a video game
it's a dumb kid CG
there's still a chance and it's very easy
to get a movie company to go yeah okay
I'll bite that but if you go I have
this thing about zombies it's based on a video game
like it's so
everything else and it's not
the Ratchet movie and Sly movies
it's Sony Pictures they just walk to them
and say this is the last one Sony Pictures is still
different than the Sony video games
they don't have to buy the license
there's no fees
it still costs more to make a movie than it does
a video game the Ratchet movie and Sly movie
are still dependent on mainframe being
able to keep the lights on so
the percentage of that coming out is still
mainframe making those
I never heard that
I didn't know that
but it's Rainmaker mainframe
oh right Rainmaker's a thing
Barbie mainframe
I'm like no back to where you were
wait no their lights are on though
Rainmaker's fine
they flicker now
hey we also work for this company
the Deus Ex movie was
announced two years ago
where is it
it's not being made is where it is
and so although
actually never mind I'm like
we can't talk about it
I have something that shows
that it's actually going on
probably like the reason why
I'm so skeptical about this one in particular
is that they're announcing it now
they're saying we're working on it now
and they put out the teaser photo
the promo shot
and this is alongside
like discussing casting
with people
you know what I mean it's like
in conclusion no casting
there's no pre-production
so we don't know
but it sounds like they're getting serious about it
but there's always a chance right
here's what is a surefire shot
you can go check out the live performance
of The Last of Us by the actual actors themselves
the voice actors you mean
the voice actors that's super weird
that's going to be happening with even the guy
who did perform to the theme
they're live
directed by
what is this a stage show
it's a weird
Last of Us live performance of select scenes
Last of Us turn off the dark
I'm glad it's a select scenes
because then you got a big Troy Baker
like hiding behind a bunch of people
like barrier you know
even if it was just the cut scenes it'd still be like
and that's what it seems like it's going to be
well they're going to have to chop that to fuck town
and it's being directed by
the guy you know
are they going to wear the little mocap
ping pong balls
unfortunately not
but if they gave out free tickets for it
and it fucking of course
is full up immediately so it's going to be streamed live
as well
when's that
that's being streamed
I'll tell you right now
I would like everyone to do a little bit of homework
either of you guys at home
I want a Netflix and Xbox video
this is the movie
what?
and I looked at the trailer and all it was
was CG footage of the game
I have no idea what it is
someone tell me what it is
I researched it I couldn't find it
it says it's like three hours long
I think it's just the cut scenes
I think, I don't know
it's the weirdest thing
I thought it was a motion comic of the
Udon translated manga
the event
oh by the way
remember when Onamusha got optioned
and the movie was going to come out
of course
the last of this
reading event is scheduled for
Monday, July 28th
that's today
that's yesterday
you're too late podcast
listeners
why didn't you listen to the podcast earlier
for us in the past
that's literally tonight
I can't see it though
so there you go guys
one night live
it was really all for nothing
it'll fucking be
dude
like Avenue Q
which you couldn't see unless you made your way out to
Broadway or the Book of Mormon
found their way
into people's homes
you with the tripod
you not record our show here
I'd be surprised if Sony didn't like
this one everywhere
it's probably a cynical ploy
to convince movie people to touch the project
sorry just to finish off the video game movie thing
there's more
what video game movies need
is a Spider-Man or an X-Men
it needs that one big one
that makes 100 million
then that's when they will be greener
if last of us came out
and was
like last of us won't do it
it could be that one
but there's so many in production
that we're gonna hit an H
coming soon
they're not hitting production
they're getting announced
but they don't hit production
that's the first stop
they get into development hell in pre-production
let's see how Halo Nightfall does
there's a preview thingy you guys can check out
apparently the wow movie has been entirely filmed
oh wow
the wow movie is an avatar type thing
where it takes
it's been all filmed by mocap guys
they just haven't done
and it's been two years
the development hell now is in post-production
yeah okay
that's interesting
whatcha gonna call it
the uh uh uh uh uh
speaking to avatar
yeah well
we can go there
there's footage of the core of the game
looks like a rising mod
when I saw her do the side dodge
into like boost
like tackle thing
will the parry into like flick the sticks
upward to launch them
doesn't look like it's gonna be much more than a rail
run to the next room fight the guys
obviously like as was noted
in the IGN interview
which was actually pretty good
it's a digital title to the end
it's a bloody palace
you're doing core as bloody palace
with Liam is that the game has to be
constructed in a certain way
when she's running on these
like pedestals to get up
there needs to be wide open spaces
for bending to even happen
she can't be on a bridge
cause the earth bending can't work
or she can't be underwater
cause then she can't fire bend
so it's gotta be these very neutral
like you can do any bending
that being said that'd be very easy
to just put you here's the ice level
in which fire bending doesn't work cause it's too cold
true but then
that is exactly
a premise they have used
in this current season
yeah no it is
that's also not fun
for video games
that's not fun design
here's the power you can't use in this place
if you saw the IGN interview
they're not gonna do that
she's gonna gain the powers over time
but no what I mean is like imposing limitations
on your
there's a difference between
imposing like limitations
and not actually imposing those
limitations and then just making you
fail when you stray outside
what they said was your powers are gonna be locked
away at first
that being said
I do not think it's gonna be a thing
if you are in environment
oh I don't think they will
like you're gonna unlock them all and they're not gonna lock anymore after that
they said in the interview
you will play this game three times cause the first time
you cannot unlock everything
the second play if you unlock everything
and then once you've done that
you unlock
it's just extreme difficulty
and then they said if you're a fan of platinum
that's the one you wanna do
and I imagine that's just gonna be
the hardest possible difficulty
with no one between this
cause why even
well no there's casual normal one extreme
but no but I mean extreme would represent
one stop in for the climax
that's actually what they said
in the interview they said that's what
the difficulty would be considered
sure and like
we're gonna do two play-throughs of that in like a day
does anyone know if that came out on youtube separately?
I think someone from
trailer or something but no that's what I don't like
is that the only thing I don't like
is that this was buried within an IGN
all day live stream
but I think someone swore it out and repeated it
that's cool but for Activision
they put out a trailer of gameplay
should happen
that being said I think the IGN interview is actually pretty good
no no it is but I'm worried about Paul Marketing
not actually putting out a gameplay trailer
if it's not there yet
so like late fall
so like Paul Marketing
for the core of game has been doing ok
but Paul Marketing
in one building over
for Nickelodeon for the show
has just shat his bed
and is just rolling around in it
the worst fuck up I've ever seen
for an ongoing show
they televised the first episode did they not?
they televised for season 3
they have televised it under the advertising banner
that you have to watch it on TV
because it's only gonna be on TV
that won't be putting it out online
and all the Stinger ads at the end
is like come back next week
well you can only see it on TV
and then they just decided to the
no fuck it it's actually gonna be all digital
and you can now no longer
no longer watch it on TV
wow
guess why cause the money's not there
I was about to say
the first part of that news actually makes me happy
because when we're at the age
where TV has to go
only on television
only on Nickelodeon exactly
how far is your back against the wall
TV
that you're like now you're like oh shit
it's been that way for a long time where it's like only on channel
it's never only on TV
only on channel
and it has been that for a while
how is that such a ginormous fuck up
and why would they say it's only on TV
like how could they go from that
to then go
there's no money here
they saw the first episodes
they did it seven episodes in
wait it wasn't the first episode
no they did it last week
well then your answers are even better
they've seen the numbers
and there has surely been a decline
that's how season is starting
but it went from you had to have
whatever cable package you needed to get it
Nickelodeon to
that's no good anymore now you have to go
to get Amazon or any of the other
video streaming things to see the rest of the season
this is better
I would love to be part of their customer service
what a fucking mess
put me on those phone lines
except they said that it's gonna be all digital
but they're still releasing it one episode a week
instead of all once despite them all being done
that doesn't really bother me
if it's done digitally it should be out today
it doesn't really bother me because in
like a month's time it won't matter anymore
for the rest of my life it won't matter
Netflix subscribes to that
theory as well and God bless them for doing it
they're right
you know it'll happen
I watched the rest of the development one day
one sitting in a house of cards
game of blouse
house of game of cards
speaking of which I'm continuing to watch that
I'm totally shit
eat it up
and speaking of like shitting your bed
while simultaneously not shitting your bed
and doing a decent job
so you're shroding your shit
shrodingers bed shitter
think about shitting your bed
but then you think better of it
the observer changes the result
don't look at the shit and it won't be there
we got to take a look
at the new Wonder Woman costume
for
the Zack Snyder movie
and it matches
what was brought to us from the guy that made
sucker punch all right
even the lighting in the background is sucker punch
why do you hate
but it manages
it manages to not be embarrassing
here's the thing
because I see the face you're making Liam
but look up every other Wonder Woman costume
but did you see the comparison
between that and the recent
Wonder Woman porn movie costume
I do
at least that one has pants
so that's an ongoing thing
when Quicksilver showed up in X-Men
Destiny
Days of Future
the guy who was doing the porn parody
threw it up on twitter
like here's the character from Marvel
here's my porn Quicksilver
and his costume was amazing
yeah
when that woman
Gal Gadot
Gal Gadot
she throws coffee at you
DC fans and Wonder Woman fans hate it
this isn't a tough woman
it should have been this one
I was in Gina Carrero
it should have been her
and they didn't like her just when it was announced
and I saw just vitriol over this
for a variety of reasons
but my issue isn't really the costume
it's just because I know who this is being brought by
the shot itself is not that great
it's like on a soundstage
with the fart gas coming up behind her
it doesn't look impressive
okay and this is where
like me thinking about
the whole movie and where this is going and whatnot
that's where I totally disagree
I think that is the best you could do
with Wonder Woman not the best you could do
no no no let me rephrase that
this is what you do
it's the best Zack Snyder could do
let me say it
that's what you do where you don't change it
so radically that all the traditional comic
fans get mad upset
and at the same time don't go with
the traditional costume which is
way dumber you know
you have to find the happy mood
for me the problem is that this costume
is like eh but also that it's going to be
that movie but that's
that's why I said that's why I meant
troding her shit because it's like
by the end of this segment it doesn't matter
because it's going in this fucking nothing
movie to begin with
no this is so not a nothing movie because
it's hard for me to look at
these decisions like oh here's Jason Momoa
might be Aquaman
might be also in the movie
is this a Batman vs Superman
movie or is this
it's Justice League
we don't have time to
do what Marvel Studios did
it's too much work
I think it's
water testing
later this is we're testing
the waters and establishing a little bit
of what you're going to know as the Justice
when Batman's costume
they show Batman's costume
like do you think this is going to be bad
because here's as opposed
to throwing all these characters at you
for the first time in that Justice League
movie they can at least go
we established them a bit before therefore
this movie can get right into whatever
that's why I don't like it because it's such a
shortcut but that's what that's not putting
your fault is what hunkers down a
team movie though when you have to establish
everybody and it takes you
4 or 5 minutes to get going
absolutely like you're right but it's like
still like I'd rather them
do what Marvel Studios and all those
things do I'd rather you just rip off that
thing and try to do it because that's
the way to do it but that means making
an Aquaman solo movie and making
a Wonder Woman solo movie and so on and
so forth so I have a good question
I saw the photo I saw the picture
it's fine I guess
where's her where's her golden lasso
that makes you tell the truth
oh where the weapons no where's her golden lasso
that makes you tell the truth you're not in the shot
and her invisible jet
invisible jet is in front of her
she is not invisible while
writing and her sword and her shield and
Amazonia no I don't care about that shit
I care about the stuff that makes Wonder Woman
look like the dumbest shit ever we're not in the
shot so
what makes her look dumb it's invisible
I wish she's not invisible
when she flies in it
I'm gonna fucking put money down
that they're gonna be in the movie
at the very least the lasso
the plane was in the last Superman
maybe in like Amazonian Taser form
I don't know but no that's stupid
it's her main weapon
no my problem is like Wonder Woman
right Zack Snyder like
weapon the Taser of Truth
yeah I told you guys
that like consistency with some sort of
thing like whether you're making a video game
or whatever annoys me and I always say
Onamusha since I talked about Donna
Dream is that the story is presented
in every type of story
that can be delivered imaginable there's CG
there's in-game cutscenes there's
character portrait art with scrolling
text there's giant black
walls with scrolling text and it changes
whenever it works
so Dark Knight
right Batman movies
all dark jury fine
Superman let's do that because that's what
Superman's about so they make Man of Steel
it's dark and jury and depressing
so now you have this Batman
it's also gonna be dark and depressing
because that's what they've shown in every promo shot
then you have Wonder Woman's costume
it is the most inconsistent thing
ever why not put Wonder Woman
in that cool costume where she had like a leather
jacket with like little golden
highlights and then like jeans that are
cool boots because millions of fans
don't want to see that there are
not millions of Wonder Woman fans
that is a lie
you know what
you know what
you might be right
probably
I don't know much about comics
but I'm pretty sure
that's a lie
based on the sales figures
but you know what though
apparently just on and off
the sales figures aren't what matter though
on and off the beat
the Wonder Woman run in DC
right now is like
one of the best
apparently that's one of the best runs
I'm reading it
I really like it
it's great
new 52 things that actually turned out well
no it's really good
but I think like
love or hate or feel indifferent
to this new costume
we seem to all
pick up one of those four
I'm a different to the costume but I sure don't like Wonder Woman
fair enough
her plane is sick though
I think we can all agree
that we should probably
just scrap this movie entirely
yes
and make Tetsuya Domura's Batman
yeah
yeah we should
the only person who's on the
wrong side of this
I'll say my piece right away
fantastic awesome
figure
don't have it in any other
all he's missing is a god damn keyplay
well to me I was gonna say
I think it's a great design
but it's clearly not based on Batman
it's hilarious
it's like it burst out laughing
don't take it anywhere but like what a cool figure
what a cool one on
I'll agree with that
it's a super cool figure
unless you pitched it as Batman
even more beyond
yeah it's not much more dumber than
a nightfall Batman as real Batman
with a big cyborg suit
it's not that much dumber to me
or Desert Commando Batman
yeah that's why it's a great figure
I think
I think my problem with it
for the eyes on moment
was that when I saw the
title it said Nomura re-designs
Batman
and I put the image in my head
more Nomura than the version I
had up in my head
like he outdid his own
like my imagination
of how ridiculous it was
and that just because you were expecting
more faithfulness
I was throwing it out entirely
which is what he did
I didn't expect to see a Kingdom Hearts boss
I did not expect that
I expected it to be like
not reigned in
but for it to look like Batman
I'll give you your answers
because Square Enix has been making
variant DC figures
for like the last year
they did Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman
Flash, Hawkeye
Hawkman
and they made more
and along with those Batman's
like right in the back of that Batman
there's all these other ones and they're exactly
what you probably thought it would look like
there's like a ninja Batman
and he's ridiculous but he's not as ridiculous
and Catwoman's up next
yeah Catwoman also like there's a million
some of them look good some of the designs
I'm like that's a cool design and then some of them are like
just flash is ridiculous
just copy paste
I wouldn't mind seeing it used in another medium
just because I'd like to see it moving
of course yeah that's true
but I know what you mean I understand the sentiment
the fact that that's a series
that was cool to me like that's fun
that's where it is going out
because it's cool as figures
well they're merchandising
they're merchandising group has to work on some
I'm not sure if you saw it Square Enix all of a sudden now it's we're making predator figures
like if you told me
10 years ago Square Enix
it says we're making predator products
I'd be like yeah
sure people like their figures
Square Enix is such a weird thing
no definitely not
oh speaking of figures
you guys saw those in that and you got a post saying
hey good job Square Enix for spoiling
this Phantom Pain character
yeah
I'm not one of the figures
one of the figures is the Burning Man
in the trailer
it is abundantly clear who the Burning Man actually is
I have not seen this
there are zoomed up pictures that just show a detail
that's like this is inconclusive
it could not be anyone else
this is only this guy
shit how are they not on top of that
the figure is awesome
the figure is great
it's a little detail
it's what I wanted
it's what I wanted
so I'm not too upset
but fuck
what a mistake
on the little card for the figure it just says like
fireman
flaming
yeah this wasn't brought to like a gaming show or anything
this was at a recent figure
it was a Comic Con
all these figures are shown at Comic Con
I thought it was like a new Wonderfest
oh maybe it's Wonderfest but
it might have been Comic Con
and just someone cocked it
someone just zoomed it
honestly even from a zoomed out shot
the figure is detailed enough
that you see an item
or detail on the character
and you just go
well I'll just be ignoring that
that being said it's not a huge
no it's not a problem
it's just the fact
well just based on the way you guys are talking
you know exactly who they are
it's exactly who you thought it was
it's exactly who you thought it was
it's exactly who you thought it was
this is what I would actually now
consider a spoiler
and I won't say anything
so these are things that I know
that I should not say
saying some horrible character
a one of two dying isn't that big of a deal
I don't think
I would consider any character dead at the spoiler
you would not in this case
I'm on that slide
all the time
you might wake up dead tomorrow
you know what we mean
no I don't
that exchange
sums up Matt in a fucking nutshell
you're gonna just hear the bitchiness
just in a nutshell
I'm not the one that started complaining
get on bitchy though
15 big babies
it's not for me man
here's how we get you even more
salty right now
Simpsons cross family guy
cross generation of irrelevance
actually I saw the clip
and it's actually pretty good
I watched the clip too
I really appreciate their willingness
to just throw the Cleveland show
right the fuck underneath the bus
who was in the back of the joke guy?
who was that?
that's Bob from Bob's Burgers
and I really appreciate
Homer's
the guy has a fucking formula
like it's
the strictest formula I could see
and the setup
completely failing
and then being exposed
I appreciate them
taking the shots at themselves
I appreciate that the core plot of that episode
is how Duff Beer
was just ripped the
fuck off by
Patriot Ale
which is the family guy
and it is the most thinly
bailed metaphor possible
what should we call it
the trailer is like 5 minutes or so
it's out on YouTube you can check it out now
I still think though
that they were forced into this corner
due to irrelevance
it was one of those things where it's an inevitability
but
way down the road
and here we are 15 seasons in
way down the road
and this happens before the Futurama crossover
which would have been far better
but it would have
sullied the hands of Futurama
at this point
Futurama's done
until there's gonna be more
until someone else picks up Futurama
picture back up again
Futurama's back you guys
like you would rather see than this
I'd rather see a Roy Spinoff show
oh my god
I'd rather see that
no one gets that
no they do
cause that was the whole thing about relevancy
that they were making that
meta joke about saying
usually when you bring in another character
it's dad to like
failing viewership
and then Roy just walks in and goes hey everybody
that being said Matt
go watch the 5 minute thing
I watched one minute of it
go go watch it
cause I brought it up to you yesterday
and you were like I'm not even going to watch it
I watched it right after this
I'm just not interested in this
cause I'm not interested in Family Guy
I'm not interested in the Simpsons anymore
we watched it the other day and we had some giggles
do it as a curiosity thing
I'll try
you'll have something new to quote incessantly
no I won't cause it won't be quotable
oh it's true
like the Simpsons movie wasn't even that quote
I never saw the Simpsons movie
that's even more like
air than I do
sometimes when things are having a rough time
not working at you just keep trying
you know what you do
you know what you should do
and my comments do earlier
make me think that we should all
get one thing
over a time period
that we can force
everyone else to watch
you got a card
it's like wooly I force you
to watch Sword Art Online
you
Liam's card is already spent because I'm going to
watch Madoka now
I didn't push you into that one
but you were present when that happened
really as hard as other people
who's doing this
I'm keeping my card
I'm keeping my card
I'm forcing anyone to watch stuff they know their hate
cause I've been like wooly watch Hajime no Ippo
and I just want you to watch it
I'm never gonna give someone a force card
and say watch Sword Art
I need to share the pain
just go over
the fate of living in the database
that's a different thing
just go over to his place
and put it on the C-Wooly
it works
William wants to serve
so podcast you go even if the one
that I'm not in I'll listen to it
and make sure if you go I start watching Sword Art
you're getting a pay cut
I'm giving you a race
not to watch
but if you say
I'm watching Sword Art
but I'm also watching Ippo
then everything's neutral
if you just watch Ippo then
we honestly need to get a big
gigantic like recommendation
good bad list
like watch this
for the four of us just like
recommend this cause it's good
recommend this cause it's bad
because dude
we've had the discussion
that being said you just referenced
Kamen Rider not too long ago
and that's a thing
that you would probably really like
if you say I force you to watch this
Kamen Rider series I'll do it
I'm gonna watch Gaian soon so
everyone's been asking me and I haven't brought it up
cause I've been saying
I'm waiting for our mutual friend
to not be so nuts busy at work
so I can snatch it from him
cause you know what I'm saying now
we were playing a game the other day
and I was like what is that from
what does that even mean
it's all you really need
it means something really awesome
but what I was saying before
was you know sometimes you gotta try again
right and
let's see if Adventure Times
3rd Rump is gonna be a charm
because we've got Adventure Time
Nameless Kingdom or something
yeah
did I miss the announcement
there's a 3rd Adventure Times game
but this is like more positive details
is this the Skyrim one
no this is not the Skyrim one
this is the JRPG we all won
he is rolling the trailer
the secret of the Nameless Kingdom
was announced at Comic Con
this one is the full blown
shameless link to the past game
okay but who developed it
wait for it but it's a different
publisher that I think is handling it
I'm not sure
actually it's linked
to the past but it's also Zelda 1
could be okay but the point is it's just going full blown
Zelda again but it's not D3 publisher
no I'll give it a look
I will also give it a look
check out the trailer
this was announced what platforms are on
probably everything again
but like the last one had a weird platform set
oh this is 3DS
360
PS3 and
maybe PS4 I don't remember
3DS for sure
certainly
there always is for these
PS3 360 PC
3DS
was the last one
the first one on PC
but not the first one because it was only on 3DS
but one of these multi-platform license things
there's always a PC version of this shit out
so you know
again take a look like you said
you're not going to be looking at much
I'm not going to take a hard look
expectations after the whatever dungeon
are low
which we never played we just saw
and we looked at the box for 3 seconds
I mean like I
I stated their hate train well and early
from part 1
that first one's fine
I think we're going to keep going
and we're going to hit like
now who's being cynical
but I'm not being cynical because I played it
and you were wrong
it's bad
it's fine
when your 3 hit combo
can't hit anything in the game
that's not good
it's fine
when your 3 hit combo can't hit anything in the game
really?
I beat the game and I enjoyed it
like where does this level of
sudden understanding
you didn't set your expectations low enough
that's why
cynicism is strong
forgive me for liking adventure time too much
it's so bad
mmmmmm
flame princess is best princess
oh we're starting waifu wars
on adventure time
and marcelline is the best
let's start waifu wars
right now
pat what you just said
is the truth
you are 100% right
I agree with you
remember when Finn got
wrapped up like a big potato so they
could hug
it's so cute to sing
it's like the only other princess that could
possibly be even close to fire princess
is like breakfast princess and hot dog princess
hot dog princess is amazing
doctor princess is alright
she's green even
the moment she shows up bubblegum
just goes the route of yuki ko
she's alone
go stand over there please
go stand over there long hair
said pat bizarrely
what's up with that
yeah
not gonna argue with that
here's a problem
the adventure time game
not a problem yet
what's the problem woolly
the guys that made banner saga
are feeling kinda sad
is this about the apple thing?
I love what they say apple said
oh absolutely
it's so nice to see that apple
also feels that sentiment
apple is feeling frustrated
people do not want to pay for mobile
according to the banner saga
she ate apple
you said hey everyone
race to the bottom
then when they reached the bottom
you said why are you guys all at the bottom
they'll spend 600 bucks on an ipad
4 bucks on a coffee
drop 20 on lunch
but when it comes to spending 4 or 5 dollars on a game
this is a life altering decision
I'm frustrated with that too
apple spent 7 years
curating or not curating
not curating
a marketplace in such a way
that people were trained
to not pay
for games
on the store
and it is so
too late
Nintendo and Capcom and all these people
have been saying this
and Square Enix
despite all of their dirtbag shit
in other areas
they were just jealous
they were 100% right
that the race to the bottom
will end in disaster
my eyes were opened
really wide when I found out
about the numbers
on what the demographic
is like for people playing games on iOS
and the massive
massive number
of people that are high school students
with no credit cards
just browsing the store
and only looking in the free section
is a huge chunk of that money
like right away
two things
but at the same time
some of these people are people that wouldn't purchase it
if it were
unavailable to them
but that's created a culture of
free
and what percentage of these iOS
or tablet users would have gone
dedicated handheld
if mobile hadn't been an option
it's only a million units
it's a huge chunk of money missing
from dedicated handhelds
so what happens then
with like
XCOM and Broken Age
where it's going to end up on the tablet
alongside the others
but the price of it
on the regular platform
is infinity times more
than what people are willing to spend on
like what do you do
they hedge most of their bets on the core audience
because there is a core audience there
and if you go to places like Touch Arcade and stuff
you'll see that there's a huge core audience
on mobile
not as big as 3DS, not as big as Vita
but there is a core audience there
and that's where games like Hitman Go
can succeed
where they place all the strengths
of the touch device
while still being a fantastic game
of a $25 PC
and so XCOM and Broken Age
they just have to fight in that arena
for fucking good games
you please take a look
and also they only need to sell one
sorry
every other dollar game would need to sell 15 units
to match the one unit
so they need substantially less sales
you made a storefront
but then they can just race to the bottom when they feel like it too
you made a storefront and they've got a long way to fall
you made a storefront in which
you're allowed to say games that aren't free
are free
and then you made it
so that it's so hard
to find anything on it
that the best way to do it is to hit the most downloaded button
which
obviously skews towards free
and then the games
that are fantastic
and are money
based
can only be reached
you can only reach knowledge of them
through external sources other than the marketplace
so for people just browsing their phones
they might as well not even
actually fucking exist
and no shit this happened
and I really feel like the free app
of the week thing they run is also quite damaging
where they will take a game
or whatever and they'll just make it free for a week
and it's like you are
actively seeking
and encouraging this free culture
of where you're literally taking a game
a few weeks ago it was Assassin's Creed Pirates
which is a game you pay money for
and it was just free
and a few weeks ago on
Amazon's Android Marketplace
it was Sonic 2
just free
I mean at the very
when we look at it though it's a platform
that's kind of blowing up on itself
it's so slow
the easy comparison to make here
in terms of dramatic cultural shifts towards buying habits
due to weird price shit
like that is your steam sales
like steam sales were so good for so long
it's not nearly as intense
as the free to play
mobile culture but there's a culture on steam
and PC gave me in general
that's not worth paying full price for
I'll wait 2-3 months
for the inevitable
sale never pay more than $20 for a video game
right now that means said
on PC it ends up working out differently
because when those sales happen
because the market is smaller in general
these games are accompanied
with enormous boosts of
new popularity for being on
the front page to see exactly what I was telling
Liam the other day like the fact that
PSN is doing similar things
is giving a second life
that gigantic
that gigantic
boost surge of popularity
that you look at steam charts it continues long
after the games not on sale
is because not
applicable to
the app store in which
it's zero
like there's nowhere where to go
and we're talking about
thousands of programs
yeah
as the technology
that like
of phones hits parity
with for playing games like these
which it's going to have other platforms
like it's not
it's not gonna hit full parity but it'll be able to
support games that are good enough
for indie you know what I mean
and that is gonna
this is already good enough for indie
there are like excellent games on mobile
that are fantastic by indie developers
but it's just the lack of
like fucking gumption to make good games
and overlapping
like combined with this free to play
nonsense gets you this
mixture where you have just generic
nothings priced at nothing
encouraging and overlapping this whole thing
is the
giant problem that mobile is going to take
like I want to say a decade to shake
is that mobile games are garbage
and they have no inherent
value of vast majority
and that's the problem
that axiom is true
I'd say 95% of the time
and that fucks the 5%
that are worthwhile pieces of content
let alone the other video game
and like the control
the control issue is
a big deal
in terms of like touch controls
suck for traditional quote unquote games
and controllers for
iOS or Android devices tend to
be terrible
plus they're hella inconvenient
and that's why I wanted to put this forward
because it's like we know that
the bed was made
now everyone gets to sleep in it
but nobody gets any blanket
no everyone's got it
there's thousands of developers
at the edges with nothing
but how do you fix this
I don't know
you start by making it so you can't say free
that's a start
that's the start
here's my
dramatic change
and this is going to sound
unworkable and crazy
I'm shocked
this is going to be ridiculous
but maybe, just maybe
oh my god it sounds just like matches now
Apple should curate their store
maybe they should actually
curate their market
we have the Apple series quality
denied things
they do deny garbage
they do have the Apple series quality
they only deny stuff like
to mature
or like straight clones
he means an actual
full on Nintendo's seal of quality
did not like
take everything off the store
and force
everybody to reapply
do the purge
spend 15 hours get rid of everything
purge it all
make your marketplace good
that's a bit much
I think you can go through the market and pick and choose
a lot of the bad ones
leave everything in the past
curate the store going forward
and make the marketplace
nuable over time
I was going to say that
that's as insane as you said
it would be
but they would more
likely go forward
with a new phone release
and like start fresh
this is the new
standard put in place
as opposed to
going through the fucking
but they need to cut off
they need to cut off the plague leg
when you go in
there's two categories good games and there's 20
and then there's bad games
rest
but no seriously
even if you still let everything in
there should be like prominent
the primary
featured spot on that store
should be stuff that's actually vetted
and you have to get your shit in
like you have to get it in for the console
the primary spaces are vetted
totally but it's not enough
they are vetted it's only when you want to
most download and stuff like that where it gets
the most download is the most popular feature
I know but you're saying something that's not true
they do vet the top things
on their things and they have recommended ones
by their people who do play them and you click
yes this is a good list of recommended ones
I mean they shouldn't
you can't get on the store unless you're vetted
here's your silver lining
there's been a ton of revisions
silver lining is that this is hilarious
that the obvious not being stated
there's been a ton of revisions
to Apple's
App Store policy over the years recently
which means they're working towards
changing things and are willing
to like
do things to improve them
they're letting it rot
Google and Apple
understand that this is a problem
what's that line from Deus Ex Human Revolution
it's not the end of the world
but you can see it from here
and they're finally standing there
with us
and they don't want to get there
so hopefully they try
I think they do realize it's a bubble
and it sucks
it'd be nice to get your marketplace
to not be a lottery
as long as
it doesn't bleed and hurt
actual platform
it won't
they're totally separate worlds
which is why we can continue to say this
I'm
really hating the amount of
dedicated handheld devices that mobile has snatched
I'm using the word
snatched because consumers have opted
for a mobile device
parents have given mobile devices to children
rather than
for men
I gotta prepare myself for Japan
he told you
all that shit
walking up to these kids
and just hitting the phones away
like no, stop it
exactly
it's
it's
I'm scared
that's a Godzilla movie right there
really walking around Tokyo
smacking phones out of kids hands
I'm scared of this
I'm not going to be any more dedicated
handheld devices
there'll be at least one more Nintendo one
yeah
there'll probably be five more Nintendo ones
it'll be a sad day
if that has to end
because of mobile
well luckily then we'll have our
sort of online visors on
and I can just go live in the database
hey wrong show
there you go
now you've got it
you're practically watching it
when I put these visors on
I can see the bumper crop
nerve gear god damn it I remember the stupid name
don't they have a new one in the new season
I forgot it's called that
that's dumb bullshit
let's take a word from our sponsors
so the crate was delivered you guys
what kind of crate
the loot crate
man do you have a crowbar so I can pop this baby open
no but I'm sure you do
no I'm okay
actually I got it open with a knife
is that just a giant crate on a pallet
like what do you need a crowbar for
okay so right off the bat
let's open this up and see what's going on in here
the box itself has been
graffitied by the villains
that's really cute
that I'm assuming are going to be using
it's the crime time box
yeah so you've got like Harley Quinn
and Joker
nice chair
cross cross with no one
it says
what is in the box
what is in this villainous box
we've got right here a t-shirt
it is a t-shirt I see it
lowkey
no it's jokie
jokie
and it's joker dressed up as lowkey
joker lowkey sitting on the throne
it's cosplaying
that's really weird that I've never seen that combo
for today
how evil would that be
that'd be the scariest shit
be a joker that thinks he's better than you
right
emperor joker style
we've got
the
Deadpool socks
these are pretty nice
red socks with Deadpool's
would they fit on your feet
they would probably
they fit my baby feet for sure
we've got
a poster here
let's see what it is
real rap noises
real rap noises
nice
oh those are nice prints
there's two separate Harley and Joker prints
and they're actually pretty nice
the joker one's fucking creepy
it looks like the cover of the killing joker bit
being in terms of like
joker smile
and Harley just looks good
nice painterly work over here
and then a bunch more stuff
we've got a
Darth Vader little keychain
they're really mixing up the villains in here
oh it's squishy
we've got the
Bowser I Want You
Nintendo stuff in here
magnet fridge magnet
of course the collectible loot crate pin
that comes with it
necessary evil
CD super villains
all entry
ah damn it
so this is a gallery
and a documentary
a feature like documentary about the villains of DC
oh that's really neat
I'll finally understand
who the fuck those people are
we've got the actual one
of course the collectible magazine
and what appears to be
an issue
of rocket raccoon
are you serious
that's not quite a villain
no but Thanos is on the cover
so he's fighting the villain
rocket raccoon number one
that's a good promotion
that's nice that's really good stuff
very timely
this is a variant cover by the way
and he's holding a loot crate
oh I didn't even catch that
there you go
for the loot crate
get in there get right in there
so once again this is like
to impress death
absolutely
once again that's an example of what you can get
in a loot crate if you head on down to lootcrate.com
slash super
and you use the promo code super
you can get 10% off the subscription plans that they have
and loot crate is boxes
of these types of goodies delivered to your house
every month
it starts at about 1337 a month
and the theme always changes
so who knows what it's going to be next time
next time we'll be heroes
to fight the previous month
or it could be ducks
could be ducks
I hope ducks is coming
ducks are the villains of villains
plague of gripes is like finally
you've got little angry batman here
best buds with joker
Batman doesn't like it
I don't want to be bat afloat
that's fun stuff so once again
lootcrate.com slash super
thanks a lot loot crate
guys my ignorance
on world war
weaponry
you didn't even pick the war
what
it was world war one
oh man a number for fear of
accidentally saying three
you had two to pick up
I know and I'm
not great with that
I know my other history but I'm not great on the weapons
it's kind of legendary at this point
so
I'm just wondering
is there a way maybe
perhaps that I could
educate myself
on what that was like
back then
well you could just read a book
but that's not fun
because I have a really short attention span
well you know what Willie I believe you like video games
I do like video games
and I think there's a lot of war related video games out there for you
where's this going
what's going on with people
no blood
someone in the team
after a full day of dismembering
people and whatever
you need to calm down with some teen
shit
not that other teen shit
what do you have in mind
world of tanks
I was going to say that the world war one
was the end of the romantic
idea of the war when they brought in
machines
and it got metal and like
and then you had mechanized death
nice
and you just start playing the butt rock
gotta kill it
so Willie a tank is basically
an old robot
yeah
that is an old gun gun
now I'm on board for this shit
apparently
if you head over to playtanks.us
it's a really good view
you can't fuzzle
it's like you can play
world of tanks for free
I want to play with US tanks
didn't these guys do like an anime crossover
with girls in panzer
which is about girls driving tanks
I don't know
I'm sure they did
that sounds awesome
that was the thing that got me on board with this game actually
so apparently
apparently world of tanks has
over 300 historically accurate tanks
to educate my audience
and I happen to know that it's not just
tanks like they have all the weird
not tanks
also
half tracks and what's known as tank destroyers
which are just guns
on wheels
they're covering several different nations
like history of tanks
so there's a fuck ton of tanks in this thing
and if you use the unique code
friends
you will get access
to exclusive in game items
there's a bunch of free content
cool cool
free stuff in the free game
I can get behind that
so once again
that's playtanks.us
with promo code friends
to play world of tanks
and you know what
I think I want some tank controls in my life
I was going to say when we went to E3
there was a huge lineup and all these people were playing the thing
and were like oh they're playing call of duty
no they weren't playing this giant tournament
there you go
there was all these girls that knew shit about the tanks too
girls like tanks
confirmed
girls like treads
this is what we're doing
so once again head on down
that's playtanks.us promo code
friends
thanks a lot world of tanks
we're thinking tanks
thanks for being awesome
thanks for being old robots
self-loathing
is just palpable
it's letter time
it's letter time
it's letter time
okay now
I wish it was nap time
I hope everyone
wrote a super good email
for twitch suggestions
at superbestfriendcast
at gmail.com
you mean between when you said it an hour ago?
that's right
so if you're a streamcast at gmail.com
is the address
now is the time to delete
and write a different question
make sure you don't just close the tab
because your gmail will save your draft
you gotta go in and hold A
the backspace button
now you're ready to write a real question
when are you guys gonna stream walking dead season 2?
that's a good question Matt
please delete yourself
and he's gone
does that mean
you can't make Cuba the recycling bin?
yes
yes it does
so if you do delete your question
and then propose another one
you might get an email sounding a little something like this
Phil says no question this week
just wanted to give a fuck you to woolly
for that 8-bit remix of p-ditties I'll be missing you
it actually made me cry during the nuzlocke stream
awww that's great
that's not a question
he said it was a shout out
I guess it's not false advertising
I didn't get to hear it because we didn't have the audio on it
dude I'm tired
I'm so drained
that being said this was a lively podcast
filled with arguments
it was jovial
that is in fact what the super best friendcast is all about
you're dumb
no I'm dumb
you're dumber
expose
what is this dumb
Mark wants to know
how's your mom?
there's a dead franchise that's not megaman
and pick
there's no other one
what's the standout character to you
from a dead franchise
Samanosuke from Onamusha
there's a
there's god there's so many like
Michael Wilson from Metal Wolf Chaos
Nathan Rad Spencer
that's pretty dead
I really like the whole cast
of the world ends with you
oh
Dante
it's not dead
punk's not dead
Virgil then
he's not coming back
again
I want to believe
I guess since the last time they asked
are you going to make another number here
they won't let me at this evil publisher
I signed up with now
that's not actually what he said
it's what I know
oh Lily
I know who would have liked it
I was always like
actually a bit ant on it
but the art style is pretty
but I was always a bit put off by the overly sexual
I'm put off by all horrible
I got one
Kiryu Kazuma
yeah sure
fuck you Liam
to you it is where you live
it's dead on the earth you stand on
we'll fight you
and then soon when you get on the plane
it'll become alive again
it'll become alive again when you get off the plane
but I won't understand it
and then you'll get back on the plane
and it'll be dead again
I'm gonna go to the stupid Don Quixote
do it
enjoy it
don't be an ad for the next year
because it came on it
Brett
and a couple
quite a few other people were just kind of
asking Nuzlocke a lot of Nuzlocke questions came in really quick
no shit
and
who's the champion of the playthrough
we said it on the video
it's Ludacris
Ludacris like super clutched it out
Ludacris was ironically Kamina
he was the Kinkatan
and then Kamina was
weirdly Simon
it didn't work out
the way we thought it would
wasn't Brock Lesnar
dumb sword tattoo
Matt says
and Willie what the fuck
man the online player for the podcast is really bad now
can you fix it please
and then gives a big bug report
as in like QA style
and the answer is yes right
gonna try to fix it
you can download the podcast
I have an alternate link for people who are having
there's just a straight up download for android link
for people who are having trouble with it
and the RSS feed is in there
like what I do is I have an antenna pod
what is this called antenna pod
there's a podcast thing and I just type the
RSS feed in there that's on your android
but apologies for the growing pains
but it's also on itunes right
it is on itunes as well
and I still have the alt link for the old website
with a different player
and I'm not saying like fuck you
for using the player
I get that but it's like there are a
plethora of other options
I definitely try to make that the case
however I will do my best to try and fix it
for you guys as soon as possible
I'm sorry if you missed this question due to the podcast player
yeah
in which case I'm not sorry
let's grab it
he doesn't tell
you didn't win
and that's followed me for a while
Daniel
Daniel says
hey guys long time listener first time caller
of the patent show we show featuring Upset, Paul and Leonard
yeah that's us
Upset, Paul and Leonard
I like that
your Hulk ultimate destruction video reminded me
of the immense butthurt I felt
wow that's a new fucking question
from radical entertainment being shut down
because 2 million
2 million was not good enough
for active blizzard
despite them hurting the sales due to them forcing
the release
forcing them to release prototype 2 at the same week
as in Diablo 3
and also infamous
they went again
like prototype versus
infamous and then prototype 2
wasn't it prototype 2 versus
infamous
they're against each other
the first 2 and both
and it was not fair
because infamous is a way better game
but they got confused for each other
yes
they both had like incredibly similar
premises titles
titles as well
and the same game
what's the game I always confuse with
Hayes, Liam
you know the one
you know what I'm talking about
we've been over this a couple times
no it's space
space shooter not halo
time shift
yeah time shift that's the one
time shift
fuck that game
the box art is a metal face
with a yellow visor
that's Hayes
that's time shift
but that's also Hayes
but Hayes has a crack in the visor
crack in the visor
that's inversion
inversion
being a butthurt prototype fanboy
aside my question is
what game studio being shut down has made you the most
upset I remember answering this on a
really early episode but I forget
if it actually was this question
I don't think it's fair for me to just say clover
yeah because they kind of just
they instantly resurrected
that's not true it took them a while
they were resurrected
you're right you're totally right
it took a fucking while
I remember not liking platinum games
as a name when I first read it
because I'm like this has nothing to do with flowers
yeah
yeah you're over it
like personally radical is a
one of them
bizarre creations
like a dozen square annex teams
well not teams
sorry square
do they still make games?
barely
the best thing EA
ever did
I was kind of bummed by
a big studio big big
which was a Sony team that made
Pursuit Force on the PSP
who made Sony closing down
side
Psygnosis
Psygnosis
that's a big one
that's a fucking big one
yeah Liverpool
you know that one made me really sad
although I mean the renaming into
Blank East West North Santa Monica
whatever
is almost the same thing
Bioware Mythic
no wait it's back to Mythic
because Bioware fucked up
no remember irrational
irrational was then
or whatever
then they switched it back to irrational
definitely
did Vigil go through something similar like that?
no Vigil shut down
you know what? Vigil
that one hit me like a sack of bricks
because I was like
people were just getting laid off and I was like are we still making this game?
oh free radical
free radical getting closed down
not for no reason
because Hayes is a huge commercial disaster
yeah free radical
Hayes is the shit
says corn
music to me
is like a religion
and Hayes is the shit
we came up with a new song
and we think we really rocked it
I know this is going to be a terrible idea
but can we base a theme
month around that quote?
I can't believe it
I remember that all this time
after all these like hot spots
ago
games that are associated
with bands somehow
it's a bad idea
god smack
green jelly, maximum carnage
any whatever
spider-man game and Chad Kroger
Chad Kroger
no
Dragon Ball Z and Creed
you know exactly
what I'm talking about
I wish I didn't
Def Jam games
it's gotta be that
not rap
I want that instead
Brent
how do you pronounce that?
Brent
yeah Brent
with a T it says
they're best friends
what is the most horrifying animal
you can think of
if it was fortified
like zombie-ified
excluding dogs and flying birds
excluding flying birds
excluding zombie dogs and zombie birds
I was going to say Canadian geese
what animal
should never be a zombie because that's just too fucking OP
sharks is too easy
hippopotamus
we were talking about that
hippopotamus is a badass
it would just be a tank
there would be no stopping
and there would be a lot of them
except for guns
elephants would just be as good
but if you blow its limbs off
maybe but then it's still fucking coming at you
also the deal with shooting hippopotamuses
and elephants is that they're super thick
maybe it's hippopotamon
that's why things like the elephant gun were invented
they're zombies
but T-Rex like sci-fi
and pop culture have made me immune to the fear
I disagree about hippos
are still terrifying to me
hippos are super dangerous
but if they were zombies they would just fucking
they wouldn't be that much different
no they would fall apart too quickly
under the hot sun of their environment
yeah but
zombies are never actually
in these type of
environments
they're always magic movie zombies
like RE-style
and also the rule
the rule set for
animals is wildly different for humans
because humans turn into slow shambling pieces
and they just move at the same speed
but animals are exactly the same
bar their newfound invincibility
and sometimes extra size
like there was a there was a reasonable outbreak
file too there was a mission and when she went
to a zoo
and there was a zombie elephant there
and it was invincible and couldn't be killed
I always thought zombie snakes would be a bad one
cause it's hard to stop a snake from biting you
when it's coming at you
that's pretty bad
I would say zombie squirrels
would be a problem
cause there's so many of them
they're fast and if you try to
have anyone actually hit a squirrel
no they're too fast they're impossible
my dog caught a squirrel once we were very proud of him
tore that fucker apart
if the squirrels like united
and found the common cause
which is your brain
you would all have different priorities
in our lives if that were to come true
no I don't think my priorities
would actually change all that much
I think I just have the wrong priorities now
I saw pigeon on my balcony the other day
it was bullshit
you went and punched him on it
no but I screamed at it through my window
I thought we had a fight to deal with them
no
I'm not ignoring the statue defecation
and I don't drive
it deals off
what's coming up on the watch gentlemen
I'm really excited for
a game called
metrico which is coming out
it's a platform
it's a 2D platformer based on metrics
wow
so a lot of the game is
like demographics?
stats a lot of the game is
bars and moving stuff
and they move based on
stats that you don't know
like say presses of the R button
or amount of distance
walked left
will move a platform up
or something like that
I think of
the fact that I played championship
manager long ago as one of the first
things I had to test
and I used to call that just go playing excel
go play excel
that's what that game is exactly
no this is a 2D platformer
all the platforms and stuff
move based on metrics and it's got a very
high contrast art style
solid color
really neat platformer
it was announced like a year and a half 2 years ago
and it's just kind of been under the radar for a long time
and it's finally coming out on the 5th
I think so
like from what I've heard from people who played it
IGN had a little hands on and they were like
fucking good, fucking good game
so I'm really excited to play that on the 5th
and otherwise rogue legacy comes out tomorrow
did you not play rogue legacy?
I played it and it was fucking crack
and now the handheld version comes out
I didn't even have to leave my crack
because I was about to ask you, dude
rogue legacy
I played it
and it was crack and tomorrow I will have my
handheld cracked
like that is a port that I'm breathing down
crack in your crack
I wish that you get Chun Li
with DL's powers
that'd be great
it does
I always confuse rogue legacy with rogue galaxy
rogue galaxy
completely different game
that's what I'm looking forward to
I'm looking forward to
apparently this wonder woman run
I hear it's really really good
so I want to see what's going on with that
yeah
that's pretty much it
I'm seeing like
I potentially say I might not be able to make it
but there's another Fantasia movie which is
Juon the beginning
of the end that's like the 5th
more Juon
or 6th grudge in Japan
I would love it to be
scary because like the first
Japanese grudge is like
one of the last things that truly was like
oh god I'm scared
I could not sleep that night when it was released
like 12 years ago
so it'd be cool if I would be like
yeah cool they're back
and they're still creepy and this kid is
hey the kid's 20 years old now
right the original Juon kid
but they can just grab another one
put the makeup on and it'll be fine
I just want to
say I'm looking forward to
Guardians of the Galaxy shout outs
to Mike Zero Dude
got in touch literally today
Mike Zero Dude
Reddit Mike Zero Dude
the guy who's always the fastest on the post
to post the stuff exactly
he's gonna be heading out and he had a spare ticket
and was like
I'm like yeah yeah yeah yeah
thanks for inviting us for like
thanks for inviting us
we could have all
you could have chopped the ticket in four
you realize that they let you do that
we could have made this work
good job
someone hasn't read the bible and hasn't read the story
about the baby that was gonna get
split in half in the parable of the moms
no that's a win-win because babies are bad
because King Solomon
had to decide
which baby which mother
would get the baby and then one mom is like
my baby give it to me and the other mom is like
I want it too and he's like okay I'm gonna cut it in half
and you each get a half and one mom is like
no and the other mom's like yeah that's cool
and he's like yo you're not the mother
and then that was that
I'm that second mom who's like yeah that's cool
no one gets it
well yeah I'd rather you have no baby
than I also have no baby
you know what I envision a scenario
where really you're wearing a giant trench coat
and
he's on your shoulders
he's on your shoulders
I'm on his and hats on top
and we're just a seven foot
waving guy
we have all of our heights
add up hold on a second there's that one
I didn't think of that in your flash game
have you guys played that flash game
where you pretend to be Hitler
but Hitler's two kids
stacked on top of each other
an accidental hitler what's it called
something like that
it's like quap but you're trying to paint
and do battle plans
as two kids on each other's shoulders
so you use the left and right keys to move
the bottom hitler
and you have to use the mouse to draw
shit
it's keeping the top one balanced
and the hands going nuts
I love these post quap games
about just control being bullshit
bad controls are the mechanic
absolutely
cause you said flash game
and it reminded me of a segment I forgot to do
you can throw it in now cause maybe it'll be a thing
do it fast
the countdown to cnd segment
is now a part of the podcast
so today on the countdown to season the cyst
we got super smash flash
version 0.9b
I don't know if you guys have seen this
it is a flash 2d version
of smash brothers except it's got
Ichigo, Goku
and loopy
this is a really old thing
so I'm gonna give it infinite years
I will also give this infinite years
the new version is out
with even more season the cyst
like
including Isaac
and all kinds of other shit
chibi robo etc
and it looks pretty nice how in depth you went with it
but I can't believe the lawsuit
hasn't happened yet
project m came out
no smash thing has been cnd
but this is not smash mod
this is like oh no no I'm aware
I played other similar titles
in fact I may have played this one
but every time you press right or left
on the character select screen you have a new company
willing to drop a lawsuit on you
I think it'll be okay
flash gate flash gate
flash gates are immune
like have you been on new grasp
20 years
what are they doing to that character
it's low
I get behind this thank you zone
it's all over your butt cheeks
so that's what I have on the launch
this week
really
for me I'm going to catch up on sword art
because I hate myself
and as for video games
I'm super excited for the last of us remaster
coming out and we'll probably
since you're getting good deals on it
I'll probably play oh I'm getting a shit deal
I don't care and I'll probably
be playing a ton of that multiplayer
so if you're in there you might kill me
have fun with that
I guarantee it
what's coming up on the channel
the site
that's coming up on the channel
super friends is finishing this week
and we definitely have some
super episodes
there's an obvious
there's an obvious
but I want to make here
but it's too obvious
so I couldn't say that one
but I want to say it
no
you can't give it away
on the day it goes up
we can write a Facebook post with that obvious
fun
it's too much
for now it'll have to stay anonymous
and yeah just
murdered and Dark Souls continuing
and probably nothing new
on the horizon until maybe next week
which is
going to be the thing you already announced
yeah but more or less
that was just the con bravo thing
which went up on video form
for the whole world to see
yes but not a lot there's no traction for it
so it's still
we're hiding Ninja Turtles
week
don't say it
we said it
it's just that in my research
stop that gets announced in the const
people don't pick on that
you get to pop it a second time
so we'll be playing with the ghost of Mack while he's in Cuba
for Ninja Turtles week
wow
look, Kate Babe is destroyed
destroyed forever
yeah
we got a solid channel
a solid
pseudo ETA
for the Nuzlocke
are you targeting any time for getting that up on YouTube
just for anyone who's wondering
as soon as you tell me how to rip it Liam
so soon
and as soon as I'm done with this podcast
and I take five to just chill
cause I know a lot of people are asking that
like when, when, when
check it out, the archive is up
and I'm gonna grab it and put it in
and as for the site in the channel
I want to point out
this is my personal belief, you guys might disagree with me
I am extremely
excited for this week's Friday Night Fisticuffs
sounds good
extremely, sounds good
yep, that I am
it's gonna be a special one
well, lots of feelings
and moments
and salt
this might be the saltiest
F&F we will ever do
maybe
and now we all
depart and then furiously
start practicing the game
Liam already made plans to practice the game
this is so unfair, I don't get that
there's so much pride on the line
there's no pride on the line
I just want to play this
I don't have any pride in it
it's all been shamed out of me
sure
that being said, well we were
whatever
no more anecdotes
teasers though
we'll be okay
we're entering the new world of Friday Night Fisticuffs
alright
so we're all gonna go take naps
oh man, yo this nap
I'm gonna go take a shower
and then I'm gonna fucking nap
and then you're gonna hit render
you've never seen a nap like this nap
I'm fucking inventing new nap technology
and tell your roommate to draw stuff on your face
incredible nap technology
is coming up
incredible nap technology
see everybody
