Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to put your pedal to the metal. From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland, an executive producers, Will Arnet and Anthony Mackie comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal, a high-octane action comedy based on the classic video game series. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motormouth outsider who must deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell, Will Arnet, and Thomas Hayden Church.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Twisted metal, streaming now now only on peacock Hey everyone classy we're classing it up Terrible that would that was our one of our very few foreign entries that guy was from the Netherlands That was some I don't even know how to say his name that sounded like another one burp to me That was that wasn't a domestic beer burp That's your fancy European beer. They got some weird ass beer in the Netherlands, dude I like the Gus pronounced the European burp as beer It's got a noom loud on it doesn't it
Starting point is 00:01:22 It's a beer and I might have to go braining just message me and said that I got a noom loud on it doesn't it? It's in the open. I might have to go. Brain had just mentioned me and said that I got a call from an attorney. Uh oh. We're finally a real company in Joel's definition. It happened. Pertunity test? No, it's a visa thing. So you're in the country legally all these years you've been joking about me. You're about to get deported, huh? Back to Ireland? Yeah, back to Ireland. You are wearing a Notre Dame shirt today. I am?
Starting point is 00:01:49 Oh, yeah, people have been looking at my shirt today. It's been kind of bothering me. We'll stop wearing such sexy shirts. My tight, my tight. Notre Dame T-shirt. You're just poured into that shirt, for now. It's just weird that the nipples are cut out, you know, the fabric around there.
Starting point is 00:02:04 I just thought that people are using Notre Dame gear anymore anymore because Notre Dame sucks so bad now. That is true That's right. I mean, maybe the only people still wear Notre Dame gear like the people at NBC who pay them for their exclusive TV rights They just renewed it. I know they just fucking renewed it. Yeah, what are these stupid? Like we're do we're do how many Bad drunken Notre Dame fighting hours tattoos, do you think they're on the world? As many as Patriot tattoos, probably. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:32 I haven't seen a lot of Patriot tattoos, but it seems like every Friday night, if you go into a tattoo parlor on Sixth Street, there's at least like three dudes getting either an air Jordan tattoo, even though he's been retired for 20 years, or a fucking Notre Dame fighting hours tattoo. It's like, it's the drunkman's tattoo of choice.
Starting point is 00:02:48 What is the what is like the tattoo that you can get that's you just shouldn't get anymore? Mom, barbed wire. Oh, there's a lot of tattoos in nothing Asian. Barbed wire, tribal like the tribal stuff? I think barbed wire on your biceps gotta be right there. I don't think nobody does anymore, right? That was like for football players and people that wanted to be football players in the 90s, right? And then Pamela Anderson, right?
Starting point is 00:03:10 Oh god. And she had like a movie and stuff. Yeah, she had a movie and stuff. Yeah, so many football players in her. It's like she was in the NFL. She's such a decent... Wow. Yeah, it's a great start to play football.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Yeah, yeah. Burps and vagina stuff. Do you guys watch like dancing with the stars or anything like that? No, no, come on If anyone answered yes, they were getting fucking get kicked out. Why do you burning? No, but she was on it And I was tempted to watch it and so was the chick who you remember the ESPN's air and Andrew's and yeah She had a thing where some dude filmed her in her hotel room through her people. Yeah, it's fucked up. That's pretty fucked up. That came out, like that story came out, I think, like the day or two days before we went
Starting point is 00:03:51 to Comic Con last year, and the whole time I was at Comic Con, I was fucking paranoid about my people. You know, you know, Aaron Andrews might be out there watching me. You don't know. I hope somebody grabs that and makes an intro out of it Terrified of your people in college. We used to fuck with people because I don't know if you know this not but a people is just You drill a hole in a door and then a people comes in two parts and you essentially just put them together Feel a hole and screw them together right? Yeah, it's like a nut and a bolt essentially the way it works
Starting point is 00:04:19 So it's really easy just to when somebody's doors open grab their people Unscrew the opposite way, and then turn the people around so that you can look into someone's room from the hallway. It's like a thankful episode. Yeah, we stopped doing that. Pretty quickly after. You started to find stuff you didn't want to find. Long force may come down.
Starting point is 00:04:36 That was the dorm at UT, which was. Juster? Yeah, that's the largest, is it still the largest dorm in the world? It was when I was there. I was there in 2000 It was it was designed by a guy who designed prisons and it looks like it looks like it They're all weird facts about gesture dorm like it has the most bricks of any building west of the Mississippi and It was designed by a guy who designed prisons and it's the largest dorm in the world designed by a guy who designed prisons and it's the largest dorm in the world
Starting point is 00:05:07 besides the red army dorm in Moscow. Really? Yeah. I don't know that one. Speaking of prisons, you want to hear something really said? My high school that I went to in Mobile, Alabama and Theodore, Alabama was a prison that was built on a marshland and after they built it, it the foundation cracked and they realized it wasn't safe enough to put prisoners in so they turned it into a high school. Are you shitting me? Sort of God. God, what that's so messed up. Yeah. Wow. So was it like a weird building where they're like, we're taking normal high school to me.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Yeah, they didn't have like guard towers and shit up. I think that they probably deprised it before they shuffled us into it. They deactivated the mines. There's only heavy recess in the yard. Would you guys go out to the lift? Yeah. Train cigarettes. There's a lot of...
Starting point is 00:05:48 Did you have fun in your shiver making classes? I was in AP shiv making. That was pretty good. But I was in, we were talking about the tattoos that you shouldn't ever get. I'll tell you one that to get real fast. Don't ever get a Rooster Teeth logo tattoo. Probably a good idea. Don't do it. How many of those are... We're not worth worth there's like four of those out there's a lot. I think there's more than that
Starting point is 00:06:10 Yeah, but the I was in Best Buy the other day and I was seeing now that pretty much everything is making it's way to Blu-ray Well like one of the titles I noticed is now on Blu-ray is Roxanne. That's Steve Martin movie Yeah, I sure the remake of Sierra noted Burjak. Right. And it was interesting because I was amazed at the movies that made it to Blu-ray. Who's gonna buy, who's gonna buy, go on, buy these movies. I would buy Roxanne.
Starting point is 00:06:36 That's a great film. What, you're really? Yeah, I watched it on Netflix every once in a while. I don't know. You want to see that nose in Blu-ray? It's like what we used to talk about when DVDs were first taking off. It's like you knew a movie was good if it came out on DVD. And then at first it was like that was kind of true for Blu-ray.
Starting point is 00:06:51 And now it's just, they're really starting to shotgun everything. Yeah. It seems like there's a lot of stuff that couldn't ever go to Blu-ray. It's specifically TV series. Like when they made the transition from film TV series to in the 80s to video and the video quality is now so lousy when you have it. You're talking about like Dallas and stuff like that. And family ties and stuff like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:13 I totally see that. Yeah, there's got to be a big portion of stuff that's unavailable, right? Like when did they make that transition? Because I remember like I remember when I had cable, we had HD net and they had like night writer and HD and 18 and HD and stuff like that So it was pretty late into the 80s before they made that switch. I think most I think it's for the half hour sitcom Yeah, this might have been bigger budget maybe yeah, the hour long shows they usually always look a lot better But even like the live ER stuff. Did you ever watching those live ER episodes? No, you look horrible
Starting point is 00:07:41 This like that was like with a mini DV cameras No, you look horrible. This like that was like with a mini-dv camera or something. Right. It was like so bad. What was state of the art at the time and now it's just getting blown away. Man, this is got me thinking about all my favorite TV shows in the 80s.
Starting point is 00:07:52 I wonder if Mr. Belvedere is on Blu-ray. Mr. Belvedere. I would buy Blu-ray player for this. Wasn't there a big urban legend about Mr. Belvedere? What was it? I don't know if you killed a bunch of people or something like that. I never heard that.
Starting point is 00:08:03 I just don't. He just helped them to their death. I think. I'm gonna go to Snowpson, look at Mr. Belvedere. I, uh, I just really wanted to be Wesley when I was a kid. There was a little boy in Mr. Belvedere who was like, uh, kind of like, I don't know, Dennis the Menace. You know, he always had a scheme going on.
Starting point is 00:08:19 He was like, loading dice and like, he was always doing, you know. What have you done? Yeah, he was like it was like a little hood You know the the lost complete the complete lost blu-ray box comes out sometime in August I think like August 24 Yeah, oh really? Yeah, it's like you'd be like 200 bucks for everything for blue on blu-ray. Yeah, I'm blu-ray That's not bad. I think it might be a little more is it like 200 bucks on Amazon if they're smart They should sell that today before the before the last episode even comes out. It's taking pre-orders today. Everyone everyone's upset at the
Starting point is 00:08:47 final episode. Right I mean yeah they got I don't know where it is because I stopped watching probably about seven episodes ago. Maybe I'll catch up between now and the finale but I really doubt it. Well finale Sunday. Yeah right so yeah it's possible. Four days. Yeah. You can marathon it and get it done. I mean they're only 40 minutes in episode. Yeah, that's true. If you're behind six, you know, this... This last episode is pretty good. Really gusts head.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I like it a lot. It's okay. Like, the story is getting like, Desmond right now is awesome. Like, I don't know what the hell is going on to him, but he's being very, very cool. When was it Desmond? That's true. But he kind of vanished for a while. Like, he's sort of disappeared for a bit.
Starting point is 00:09:23 Now, he's really taking over. It's pretty awesome a while like he's sort of they'd disappeared for a bit now. He's he's really Taking over. It's pretty awesome. Well, he's the constant right? Yeah, dude's got to come around. Well, he was fair days constant So he's not the constant. He's a constant We got the semantic police over here. Are you watching it? No, yeah, like Penny was Desmond's constant. I get I get I you know, I still read it on did you read last nice episode? Yeah, no, I had Brandon surmise it for me. He's got he's got two lanes at a week a pdf version I'd Brandon to somewhere. I did last week's episode for him in Brandon did this week's. Yeah, I don't need to read anymore reasons for suckers We got to get the strain guys. Come on
Starting point is 00:10:00 I'm pretty much I'm pretty much almost entirely stopped watching TV But for a very weird reason it's because our cable provider here sucks so bad. Yeah unbelievable how bad are provided? So I'm warning so I'm warning yes, we still have time Warner fucking terrible. What are you doing Gus? I don't I have an antenna you're an antenna to get over the air Mm-hmm, and then you how do you record like a VHS? I don't record. You could do it with like a build like your own DVR, but I don't want to. Yeah, if you have an antenna, you're not. Why would you go through all the trouble building your own DVR?
Starting point is 00:10:32 Yeah, I mean, if you could do it pretty cheap, but I don't know. I just, I don't know. I find like I just watch it when it comes on. And that's it. And if you miss it, just watch it on who? Right. If I miss it, then it's on hulu or abc.com or wherever. Jack, do you have time-worn or still?
Starting point is 00:10:45 Yes. Do you get constant digital dropout when you're watching stuff? Most recently, my cable box has just been resetting. I'll be watching a show, it just turns off, and then boots up again. They didn't steal your cable box? No. That was one of the few things they left.
Starting point is 00:10:59 That was nice of them. How re-holding up with that, by the way? I've got the detective is now starting to work with a few people to hopefully find more. Apparently, uh, my uncle, like, knows people up in the, uh, APD and he contacted some folks. And so now, suddenly, the very interest in helping me a lot more. Yeah, they seem very disinterested when you're holding on. Yeah. So, uh, so now I'm getting like emails from like this, like, the detective I'm working with like I got emails from his boss Like please send me anything you also send him like okay cool, so
Starting point is 00:11:30 So hopefully they'll start doing stuff. So we have a few possible, you know We have some we have some things that might be helpful in the case, I guess With I mean, I'm trying not to give away any some very helpful information. Yeah. Yeah, well What I'm hearing from this is that the system works. Yeah, as long as you've got a well placed uncle. Yeah. You know, somebody, it can make a call, and then suddenly your case is important.
Starting point is 00:11:51 And also, you can do all the work for them. All you literally do is go here, like, use this to find the person who's the one stuff. Why don't you just take it one step further and find them yourself? I'm going to call it. I'm vigilante justice. It's called dog the bounty hunter to come help me.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Yeah. In my opinion, Jack had the equivalent of a picture of of the like the guy dropped his driver's license at the place would be essentially About the level of what you had yeah, yeah, and you give that to the police and they're like oh, we don't know we'll look into it Yeah, this will take like it's take it over Life is expired in six weeks. Maybe we'll find something out. Maybe yeah, yeah Hey, mr. Patillo lots of people have drivers license. You want to sue a rest everybody in the car. But I'm unbelievable. Yeah, I have two very, very solid pieces of stuff that could help us out.
Starting point is 00:12:35 And so now they're finally kind of looking at that. We have them with you today, and they're not left at your house. Yeah. No, thankfully. So of my two Xboxes that I got taken in in two weeks my profile was actually on my USB thumb drive And I had it at work the whole time so I never lost any my game saves or anything like that So that's convenient but other than that so that's what you have left pretty much You have that and you're flip yeah, you can make a video of your USB thumb drive
Starting point is 00:12:59 You don't have the games, but you have the game saves that got that it take your wardrobe a free gaming the games but you have the game saves. Thank God that it takes your wardrobe a free gaming teacher. Dude, so I realized they took I had a bag a fantastic fest bag that was full of all my badges I've gotten from like the last six years like my Comic Con badges South by Southwest badges any time I go to a VIT I'll just throw my badge into a bag they took my bag dude literally all days just full of badges from stuff I've gone you know why would they take that you know what they did they did you a favor there that's the bag of never getting laid man that's a
Starting point is 00:13:31 record of every nerdy thing we've done for the last six years I was actually thinking of taking that like taking that to the new office and like putting him up on the wall or something no they did it's all a favor that is like naked girl kryptonite yeah well because it's a lot of naked chicks up at the office so I'm gonna do the new office shit we're not we are moved in you know all the favor that is like naked girl kryptonite yeah well because a lot of naked chicks up at the office so you don't know if you haven't been to the new office yet we're not we have moved in you don't know what we got going we have a hot chicks room with the new office uh the you know what keep collecting badges and you'll never find out we hired an architect for a reason
Starting point is 00:13:57 by the way this bag was in your bedroom at home yeah yeah it is unsafe basically well it's good written to it who cares the of all the the things Jack have to look in the bright side It's that what it's like no, but I mean like yeah, I understand like yeah, it's not a big deal But it's like why would you take that like of all things like why that you know identity theft? They left my DJ hero controller. Maybe they also don't want to get laid. That's a statement They left just DJ here. They left the books, they're like there are books on top of games, they took the books off, took the games for the books back. That's awesome. Yeah, so I still have my copy of World War Z, but oh they left World War Z. So you're
Starting point is 00:14:37 not totally helpless, you do, they did leave some stuff for you. Yeah. That's nice too, because without a, you know, Xbox or a computer, you've got a lot of free time in your hands at home to read now. You know, I don't really want to talk about this anymore, too, because after the last couple of podcasts that I wasn't on and you guys were talking about Jack's stuff being stolen, my personal comments have been filled with people saying, Hey, we should do something that you're cheer jack up. Hey, Bernie, you should organize a contest or you should organize a fucking charity event or Bernie, you should, like, be or give me a litany of shit to do because jack stuff got stolen. And every time they make
Starting point is 00:15:15 it suggestion, I go, okay, go for it. Yeah. Go for it. Look, why can't I can't do this. Suddenly because because one of Jack's parents is a drug addict. Now we have to fucking jump through hoops. What? Don't give me shit to do. I have enough to do in my life. I also know as you know my personal comments, why the fuck do people show up in my personal comments and want tech support? Or general information about something we don't have
Starting point is 00:15:36 anything to fucking do with. That's the best. Yeah. I don't know why you can't log into Xbox Live. I have nothing to do with that. I don't give a fuck. I'm glad you're not on Xbox Live. So you can't fucking mess with Live. I have nothing to do with that. I don't give a fuck. I'm glad you're not on Xbox Live, so you can't fucking mess with me.
Starting point is 00:15:47 I make my face. Stop fucking asking me. I don't care. I don't care. God, just you must get that. That's the best. Hey, I'm gonna buy a new wireless router. Linksys?
Starting point is 00:15:58 Like, I don't even know anything about you. What are you gonna be doing, you know? That doesn't mean give me a more detail explanation. That means don't fucking ask me. I just don't understand. Speaking of it, I want to buy a new computer. What should I buy? I don't know. Buy a fucking computer. I'm gonna get on right now. It's the difference between our personal comments and Jeff's personal comments. You don't get anything like that, do you? Uh, look at my personal comments, do you think? You must get like what game should I buy?
Starting point is 00:16:25 I get a lot of like, I get a lot of booze-related questions, advice, you know? What's it, if I want, what can I mix with this? Am I, am I the only staff member who doesn't have friend of quest turns off? Friends request turned off? Fuck, I can't even speak. I think that is correct.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Okay, I accept everyone who sends me friend requests because I don't want to have to deal with people saying why aren't you my friend? So. Why do you make it front of the users, Jack? Yeah, Jesus. I know Jesus is playing call for. No, because I get people constantly asking me if I can ask,
Starting point is 00:16:53 like you or Jeff, if they can add his friends or whatever. I've got a great one, the most recent one. Hey, can you wish my friend a birthday on today's podcast? No. I hope your friend has the shittiest birthday he or she has ever had. What's your friend's name? Oh, I don't know. Oh, it's on Jeff.
Starting point is 00:17:13 Jeff, could you please say happy birthday my friend on the drink tank tomorrow? His username on the site. We have both been avid listeners and RVB fans for a. You know what, I'm gonna say happy birthday. And I'm gonna take it one step further. Sounds like a dude who likes to support people that need help.
Starting point is 00:17:27 So if you have any questions about the community, about tech support, about what games to buy, what routers, what restaurants, what alcohol, you should personal comment, he is now the official question asker or question answerer for our site. You're right, let's see him in his box. If you realize I'm gonna bleep out every single time
Starting point is 00:17:45 he said his username. He shouldn't, man. That dude just got a new job. Happy birthday. Man, let's see how old. Man is today. Beep, beep, beep. According to the site, he's 20 years old.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Hey, one more year. Did you see that they, I guess now you, they're blizzard rolling out a beta version of a mobile auction house? You can access on the iPhone. That's pretty cool, dude. It's only on a few servers right now. What server is it on? It's, I don't want to list them. It's like 15 of them. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:18:19 But will, luckily, is it on phone, sure? No. Is it on Thunderlord? No. But two of the servers that I've characters on the auction house works for that and I guess right now it's in beta so it's free but once they roll it out for everyone it's gonna be a premium app that you have to pay 299 a month to use oh it's what's a subscription app yeah huh that's uh it's interesting it's yeah 299 every 30 days
Starting point is 00:18:42 so what are we to start playing the world of work after again I don't know I I passed it I updated it same here I react in my account. I'm ready to go and you know Nine months whatever we slow down on achievement. I don't actually start doing stuff. Oh, there'll be no slowing down in nine months, dude I Could I come back on the day after four trivela titles launched? Yeah, it's pretty exciting. Yeah, I'm looking forward to you know The other day yesterday morning. I had to go down to the new office to wait for the phone The phone company to come and install the phone line for us So I sat there for like two and a half hours in the morning and I was kind of bored and there's a Walmart
Starting point is 00:19:14 Like right across the street from where our new office is So I thought I'm gonna go over to that Walmart and see if they have Alan Wake for sale because it's eight in the morning And I went over and they actually had it. That's cool They had I guess they had a midnight lunch for it and I walked over and it was in the case and I was able to buy a game at eight in the morning and I went over and they actually had it. That's cool. They had, I guess they had a midnight launch for it and I walked over and it was in the case and I was able to buy a game at eight in the morning. You know that kind of pisses me off that they had a midnight launch because I checked their website trying to find if there were any midnight launches and they don't have any kind of information like that on a little website. Well Walmart just at midnight that is put games out or you can ask for games at midnight. Can you? Yeah, I've done that before. Okay. I got actually I got modern warfare too with the Walmart near my house.
Starting point is 00:19:43 That's that's that's one thing I'm excited about with the new office. Yeah, well, the proximity to being able to get games easily. We feel like right now it's impossible to get their games easily at our there's also a game stop in the same complex. Yeah, but they're not open. They might do midnight's for some games. Yeah, he fucking pre-order. Oh, I went to the target by our house Gus where I always go on Tuesday mornings to fight with the target employees and there were no Target employees around so I opened all of the video game boxes myself To get all the game because I bought red dead What's that? What you should start doing?
Starting point is 00:20:15 You need a version of like a red colored shirt and on Tuesday morning Get it on and go in and just start like opening all the boxes looking for your ship But it was funny because like some like 17 year old kid comes over on my last box And he was, what are you doing? I go, uh, your job and then I go, okay. And then he couldn't figure out how to log into the register. So we had to call two more employees over to help
Starting point is 00:20:35 and ended up taking like 40 minutes to buy those games after I impact the boxes. You should a Wahoo did. I should. You're a Wahoo beer, is it kid? Yeah. Yeah, I mean that's kid. 10 year old would be here. You're probably lot who beer is a kid. Yeah, yeah, I mean that's a kid
Starting point is 00:20:48 10 year-old with beer you're probably a wild-hooded paint Spray paint or whatever you did. So it's some kids. I'm kid rotus and talked about how You got us three dark times you got him two dark times when he was huffing paint and I thought you don't know how appropriate that is kid How to load you get to half-paint. I've never huffed paint before. I wouldn't imagine, but how low do you think a person would have to get? You'd have to be about 17. I've done gas, I've done lighter fluid a lot. Never, Scotch guard, never paint. Jesus. There were paint with a big problem.
Starting point is 00:21:15 In Eagle Pass, a bunch of people used to huff spray paint. And you could always tell it was always funny, because I guess they would spray it into a paper bag and then smell it. And you could always see a ring of paint around their mouth, like Homer Simpson. If anybody wants to know gold and silver spray paint I was about to say it was always gold and silver yeah do we guys have seen the famous mug shot yeah of the guy who's got a big one yeah right the golden state warrior sure but seriously that that shit will kill your brain don't do it but yeah make it pass
Starting point is 00:21:43 out and die in this fix the ignore room Yeah, and then you're not gonna look good in the coffin. You're face gonna be all gold over that shit does not come off Let me ask you a question. Okay. What would you pay in order to never set foot inside of a retail store again? like per year, what would you pay? Oh, dude? I Pay a lot. I'm gonna do a bit of a commercial. I know where this is going. You fucking walked right into it. I am I am
Starting point is 00:22:10 a evangelist for a service that I have which is called Amazon Prime and it cost me $79 a year and for $79 a year I get free shipping from Amazon free two-day shipping and if I want anything one day the next day Then it's I think 399 and item so it's almost like you would always do it. That's super super cheap Yes, and so I don't I can't tell you the last time I went into a retail store to buy anything Can you buy clothes and stuff that way? You can I like buy underwear and socks because I do the weird thing where I buy Two or three packages of socks a month and then just roll through like my socks
Starting point is 00:22:46 I don't I know that was always your dream You talked about that for years. I think ever since we started was Rooster Teeth your dream was I want to only I want to buy a new sock I want to wear a new pair of socks every day Yeah, never want to wear the same pair of socks Sparkle in your eyes. Oh, you say you're crazy And then you used to love going on trips because you could buy that was your excuse to buy new socks Was on trips you could take them with you and then you would just leave them there. I love these socks I don't know what it is. I love new socks
Starting point is 00:23:10 Yeah, I think I guess Amazon Prime is 79 bucks a year and you get a free trial for a month I can't I cannot recommend it enough because then you think like oh, I should go to the store and get X or Like I need a box fan for my house or something like or some small production thing we have here and you just go on Amazon two seconds click and it's on its way and you have to think about it you have to like well I gotta go home and I gotta stop by target or whatever or I gotta deal with that dude but if you're one of those people who shows up at a friggin midnight launch for a game stop it's not that level of convenience but I'm not that person anymore Okay, you know how Amazon sell stuff but there's also other people who sell stuff through Amazon.
Starting point is 00:23:48 When the other people sell stuff, is that also like prime eligible? Like Z-Store? No, you just used the word you use prime eligible. That's actually what it's called. And you can sort when you search for something based on what's prime eligible. Okay, so some things are not prime eligible. But all the stuff that's sold by other other entities but then fulfilled by amazon is prime eligible gotcha and some things are but it's still like the nice thing is to is that like a lot of
Starting point is 00:24:10 times I'll order multiple things in one order and some of it will be coming from some like a cot that I got remember yeah that came from somewhere else and so but like other things that I get like those fans that came one day and it was 399 for that and it's Do you think you buy more stuff now because of the convenience? Because for me it would be like I need to go to Target and get X. Naaah! Look at I'm not getting out of the house to go all the way over to Target. I think I think maybe I do the opposite. I think it's a mixed bag because I think sometimes I will just say oh I need one thing so I just buy the one thing. If I go to Target I'm like shit I'm gonna walk around here. I don't want to come back in here and park and all that. Yeah. And so I'll go buy like
Starting point is 00:24:45 maybe more things than what I need but like Amazon you just buy the one thing at a time and that's it bang bang bang I just totally sounds like commercial to not I love this fucking service I wish everybody had this I wish we could get it for our shipping for our stop the problem is I sometimes when I realize I want something or I need something normally I don't know if I can wait two days like it's like oh shit I need this right now. You would be, well there is some stuff like that, sure. But I mean usually it's usually it's the issue of, and I get shipped to the office too.
Starting point is 00:25:11 So it's like I mean here at three o'clock on a Tuesday, I'm not going to go out that night and get it. I know it'll be here first thing in the morning when I get here if I want something. Right. Sure. So I, this Amazon Prime thing, I cannot recommend it enough. I'm afraid to go away that like they're gonna say 80 bucks and people are shipping stuff everywhere You know around the world two-day shipping, so this is a weird picture they have on their page looks like this chick has huge hands
Starting point is 00:25:35 With a perspective that is fucked up like monstrous that is fucked up Yeah, we we should get some money from them or something. That was a pretty pretty good plug Yeah, yeah, sorry. Is there anything you would like to plug today, Gus? World of Warcraft. Yeah. How's your new car treating you? My new car's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:50 I'm really liking it. I find that my life has played to finally, and I'm going to go pick them up later. Did you, uh, did you figure out, did you finish your gas mileage test? Um, no. I still have it. I still haven't. Oh really? It's after my gas tank now.
Starting point is 00:26:00 That's pretty, that's pretty awesome. Yeah. So you're still on your first tank of gas? I'm on my second. Second tank of gas. And you've had the car. How long? Three weeks three and a half weeks you and I have very different guests It's great. I love I fucking it's kind of like the convenience thing I hate stopping for gas. I feel like every gas station is out of the way and if I go
Starting point is 00:26:19 There's a fucking bum who wants to wash my windshield or some dip shit who wants to sell me a fuel additive or like even paying at the pump you still have to deal with these people. I go to the chevron I never get that. People walk up and say hey I'm thinking about buying a router guys. What do you think? I don't want to talk to anyone. That's what we're finding here. We're all like hermits, we're all like a introverts I guess. It's like I kind of have everything I need at home
Starting point is 00:26:45 and, you know, I'm with you. I totally am thinking about buying a more fuel efficient car, not to save money or anything, but just to like, dark the pump gas. Looks like it's a week or months a week. Must be nice to have everything you need at home. What? Man, speaking of routers, Saturday morning,
Starting point is 00:27:02 my router died, my linksis router died, and I went through, and guess what, Jeff, who is a friend of mine, Man speaking of routers Saturday morning my router died my links this router died and I went through and guess what Jeff who is a friend of mine It has been a friend of mine for like 12 years his router died. He needed a new router He didn't fucking call me and ask for advice. No, I didn't I I You people shouldn't ask either and we live like he lives to blind He lives like next door. Gus is pointing at at the internet right i would never do that yet no the point i was gonna make is while we're having advertisements
Starting point is 00:27:28 i it took me longer to troubleshoot the broken router that it did to drive the best by bio a uh... airport express wireless income home install it and get set back up like that thing it was a facet i've ever set anything up in my life i don't know that that one's yeah this is the same and that passes our pretty cool. I know I didn't get the, I, I get the express.
Starting point is 00:27:46 Yeah, just like the little like box. The one you plug into the wall. Yeah, I have a, I have the big station, the square one where that's called. And then I have two of the ones you're talking about to extend it. That was, that's super easy. Yeah, because I've always had a problem with range
Starting point is 00:27:58 in my house where it doesn't like reach from, it's a big choice where the hell do you put their outer on the house? The base station is cool because you can plug a USB hard drive into it and then it's like a network hard drive like anyone can connect to it. Does it work for a time machine too? Uh, that's yeah, that's a different thing though, right?
Starting point is 00:28:13 Time capsule. Time capsule. Yeah. Well no, but I'm asking can you plug a you you said you can plug a USB? I think I think you could also plug in any. It can be you couldn't and I think they did a software update where you can plug in just about any hard drive now. Product that does that. Right. Yeah, that would be cool So what do you think what do you guys think of what's gonna happen to E3? Look what the hell is Microsoft gonna announce a Cirque de Soleil the game. Yeah, can I tell you something about that so
Starting point is 00:28:37 I I never had the conversation with you guys about it But I read that Cirque de Soleil was gonna be part of the Xbox experience at E3 They're launching it. That's that thing that's going Sunday night. And I immediately said, that is so fucking stupid. That is such a waste of money. I feel almost like a taxpayer with Xbox. I don't know what it is.
Starting point is 00:28:54 They have some, like they have some level of commitment to me that they shouldn't waste my money, but that's not true in any way. I mean, their company has to promote something. And then this is so fucking stupid. Cirque du Soleil, why are they doing that? And then somebody casually mentioned, Cirque du Soleil, why are they doing that? And then somebody casually mentioned, Cirque du Soleil will be there to promote in a tall and then to talk experience, they go,
Starting point is 00:29:10 oh, okay, that makes sense. It actually does make sense. Supposedly, they're gonna create some sort of an experience that's never been seen before. That's what that's, but with Natal, it makes sense. I don't know, I'm still with your original sentiment. No, no, it makes sense. It seems gimmicky and
Starting point is 00:29:25 It's like Cirque du Soleil. What is this fucking 1994? This the sucketing for me is that I was like tell my wife. I was like griffin I gotta go to LA for a week. I'm gonna go to E3 She's like video games whatever have fun and then she finds out fucking Cirque du Soleil is gonna be there And now it's like a are we gonna get divorced because you can't go see Cirque du Soleil with me? She's upset like yeah, she love apparently my wife loves start to so Like a big deal you go see it every day in Vegas. Yeah, I have like two or three shows No, it's like seven shows now the circus a lay thing the weird thing about that then it's all experience event
Starting point is 00:29:55 There's no camera equipment allowed no recording devices at all allowed in the event in TV is gonna Yeah, okay, they're probably gonna do it themselves. Yeah. Yeah. They just want to control the information. I guess so. Hey, don't want to make videos of, I mean, it searches a list of kind of a cool, fun experience. If you don't know what that is, it's a... Yeah, it's a fun. It's a fun. An acrobatic circus where just a bunch of people jump around and climb in their opes and doing crazy crazy stuff that apparently blonde women from Oregon are obsessed with.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Take her. Yeah, just take her. Why not? Have you not seen any show? Hey, here's another suggestion. This is something I often suggest to you. Take your wife to Vegas. I don't know why you won't go to Vegas.
Starting point is 00:30:38 I'll take her tomorrow. Why don't you just go? It's a thing because every time I bring it up, you like to go. I'm not going to, we got a busy week, dude. I'm not going to be in the office tomorrow. But what is it? Like every time you. I can't get away from my kid. I can't get a weekend babysitter. I'm not gonna take my kid to Vegas. Well, there are places in Vegas where you take a kid. Don't ever go to those places.
Starting point is 00:30:52 When you circus circus and I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I'm just like walking around. It's midnight.
Starting point is 00:31:02 We're walking around. I can see no drinking. Why is there a child walking around this? You see that shit is 6th street a lot too. Oh it's the worst. But yeah like I would fly my mom in for to watch Millie for a weekend or whatever but I'd rather do that for a big vacation like the year rip or something. I'm not just a bigest. Why don't you leave Millie with Gus for a weekend? No it's okay. Yeah it's not a big thing. He's a block away.. Esther could dress her up in different outfits Yeah, it's true. No, she's like a mini human. No, she'd love it
Starting point is 00:31:28 No, how well do you think you deal with a kid in your house? Not very not at all. Yeah, no, no my house is not very Kid friendly. There's a lot of breakable stuff like within the first three feet of the ground a lot of knives Just pointed out yeah, you know after guys was in charge of house sitting you probably don't want in baby sitting I bet you would love that like you've heard the stickers until I go crazy now moving on You think you found all of me at all the stars. I found something the other day Where they behind a painting oh? Yeah, they're still around. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:32:08 You probably found most of them by this point. Yeah, and then we'll see. I'm not actively looking for them. Yeah. Did you see also, I guess, I'm going back to my World of Warcraft plug here. Well, please do, man. I guess they announced that BlizzCon tickets are going to go on sale, I guess in a couple of weeks, like two weeks.
Starting point is 00:32:24 So they'd sell out in probably like 10 minutes or so? Yeah, the joystick at the best headline about it. Blizzcon tickets on sale for a few seconds on June 2nd and June 2nd. Are you gonna go? No. Why would you? I mean, what is the purpose of going to Blizzcon? Normally they'll get the bill.
Starting point is 00:32:37 They'll show something new and then sell a pet or not sell a pet. Give you a pet for going. You went that one time and had a good time, right? No. Oh, you didn't enjoy it? Yeah, I was really. I went the first year and I thought you did. I felt like there wasn't enough content
Starting point is 00:32:50 to support a convention, if that makes sense. It was like, it's really specific. Two things, yeah. How many tickets do they sell? Like how big is the event? I don't know, I don't know. I wish I did. You could have asked me questions I can't answer.
Starting point is 00:33:04 Now, but I agree with Gus. I mean that is a con about one thing Yeah, but if that one thing is your life. Yeah, it's probably worth it I mean they they've diversified like the first year I went it was it was all world of warcraft And then they showed a little bit of starcraft ghost off on the side right and then now they actually have you know starcraft Two and Diablo and I mean they do a lot that they can show as well as in the fire right now, right But the first year was pretty small. I guess the last year's answer, it's quite a few, there were 20,000 attendees.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Where do they have it at, you know? Anaheim, I think. Yeah. The first year I went, there were 8,000. There's something in my movement to Vegas, right? That was rumour for a while. I'd get it at. Suddenly you want to go.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I get it at. I don't know. I'm just usually going to Vegas. Excuse me. Do you think Comic Con would go to Vegas? It's the only place it can go, right? Vegas or maybe Orlando? Orlando, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:49 They got it. They got to go somewhere. The thing is too big for that space. Yep. Have you been to the Las Vegas Convention Center? No. It's incredible how big that place is. I was in one, like, I was in CES two years ago.
Starting point is 00:34:04 And I was in one convention hall. And I was like, this two years ago, and I was in one convention hall, and I was like, this is the largest convention hall I've ever seen in my life. Then I realized there was another one on top of it, of the same size. Like it was like the second floor was identical. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And then there's like another wing. Okay.
Starting point is 00:34:19 I love Las Vegas Convention Center is one of the largest convention centers in the world at 3.2 million square feet. God. But how does that compare to like the San Diego convention center? And that thing is, for reference, is like five football fields long and about three football fields wide, right? It's 3.2 for the Vegas one. The Vegas one was 3.2 million, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Convention center in San Diego is 615,000 square feet. Wow. Wow. How big is the one in Atlanta? We're going to a very specific, uh, the geekiest conversation ever. 3.2, 615. And you know Orlando probably would be a better choice for Comic Con just because I think the demographic of people who go to Comic Con would be more likely to go to Disney World Yeah, they would be to go to you know the MGM grand or something like that. They're allowed to what has 2.1 million square feet of exhibit space. Wow So you go to Orlando first then Vegas when they all grow that dude if they grew to the size where they needed 3.2 million square feet That would be terrifying Comic Con is out of space. They are definitely out of space.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Well, they accept, they can only accommodate 40 or 50% of the exhibitors that apply. I'm surprised it's that high of a percentage. So they literally have twice as many people trying to exhibit there than they can they can come. That's money they have to turn away basically. Yeah. I don't think that's a big issue for Comic Con. Comic Con is a nonprofit organization. Really? After all these years. Yeah, they're nonprofit. Wow. Yeah. Wow. How many people you think Comic Con employees like just to run it? Two, I mean, Pitting Arcade, how many people run the packs exposed? Well, the people that are employed at Pining Arcade and the people who run packs are totally different.
Starting point is 00:36:09 All those enforcers are all fans and- You know, I'm talking like organizers. I read that. I read how many people actually work for Comic Con one time and I don't remember the number, but it was not a lot. Really? I believe it's very good. It was like 10 or 15 people, I think.
Starting point is 00:36:23 It wasn't much to it and honestly We've been to a lot of cons Pax is easily the best run Con we've been to yeah, probably because the guys who run it have themselves Suffered at the hands of other con officials the enforcers are awesome, and those guys are always great Yeah, they seem to know what's going on. It's nice to run into people who can react to a situation Man trying to get a red shirt at Comic-Con to help you do anything is almost impossible Yeah, the guys at Comic-Con that drive me fucking crazy are the guys who say you have too many people at your booth get rid of them It's like no, we're not getting rid of the people that are here to see us
Starting point is 00:37:01 Like how do you want me to get rid of them? You want me to pull out a gun? Go away. I'll see you. Come back later. It's like, can you cancel your show? There's two people that want to talk to you guys. And it happens every year, too. And in the end, we have the same solution.
Starting point is 00:37:13 Move us to a bigger booth. We'll pay more for a bigger booth. And they say, oh, we can't do that. But get rid of these people. They're blocking the hallway. Gusson, I figured out how many points we have in the Comic-Con system that we did. Yeah, what was that?
Starting point is 00:37:23 I got that email, too. Oh, did you want me to send that to you? Sorry. It's how they assign your booth We have a we have a great booth where we're on the corner on a major hallway and it took us probably like four years to work up to that level of Booth. This is our seventh year going to Comic-Con I think so they took us six years Five years. Yeah, pay your case and go in there What about three or four years longer than we have? Yeah. And they have a corner booth and the booth next to them as well, which would be great.
Starting point is 00:37:48 We'd love to have that much room. Yeah. We're right across from them. But at this point, no one above us is leaving. You know, they're not going to stop exhibiting at Comic Con. So there's nothing really that we can do. We can lock into the cap. The point system to answer your question,
Starting point is 00:38:02 that's how they decide who gets what booth and who gets priority. So you run the math on yourself to figure out how many points you have. I can say right down everyone, and then they do booth assignments based on that. There are ways to boost points, but they're very expensive.
Starting point is 00:38:18 I just love that the one year I went to Comic Con, Microsoft had a booth that was just barely bigger than ours. That's like, that's Microsoft. Well, they remember video games We're not a big part of Comic Con for a long time. It was comics and then movies and then TV shows I guess as well. So the video game companies actually have very little presence at Comic Con. Yeah, it's hard to get in I mean, there's ones like Lucasfilm We're luckily they get to add on to the you know what our war War, it's always had a big presence. Yeah, Warner Brothers had a really, really big booth. Yeah, those are companies that already had their footprint at Comic Con,
Starting point is 00:38:50 so they could just repurpose it for other things, but dedicated video game companies are just kind of late to the game. Yeah, they didn't, it looks like they didn't start. Send you Comic Con didn't start like hitting capacity and selling out till 2006. Yeah. So we got in right before they started hitting a 10-D capacity. What was our first year 2004? Yeah. And we got lucky because the first year that we applied to be at Comcom we actually got a booth. There'd be no way that would happen today.
Starting point is 00:39:11 The first year I can see here the reason we I think we were able to get a booth is 2004 was the year that they finally expanded into Hall H. Up until then they had never gotten into that hall. I guess they expanded. We got in and then they were like you know we were on that waiting list that got stuck in there. Yeah we were on the waiting list until less than a month before the event started. I don't know if you remember. Then we got, we got the notification we were in. We had to scramble like a little girl while the stuff out there. Yeah, I saw the video in the behind the scenes this. Our bonus this long time ago. Yeah, it was me and Jason drove that out. We do is there was a part of Texas. Texas is Gus 900 miles across. I think it's a I think it's just under a thousand
Starting point is 00:39:48 Yeah, so it takes a full day to drive across Texas and there's there's really nothing west of Austin El Paso That's it. Well passers like pretty much you Mexico. It's a lot of sand and rocks. There's a great road sign on I-10 If you're going from Louisiana into Texas, it's like so you put an orange orange the first that you hit there's a sign that says like uh what's uh it's like Beaumont 10 miles l pass 850 miles it's like 960 miles I think it's something ridiculous like that but there was a point we're hauling all of our gear out to comic on like shirts and DVDs we were gonna sell in a trailer behind my truck and we reached a point when we were about 250 miles between gas stations and it was exactly how far we needed on one tank of gas how far we could get
Starting point is 00:40:32 home that trailer. It was so hot because it's in late July it was so hot and we were hauling so much weight that you could watch the fuel needle move you could actually see it dropping that's pretty scary when you're in the middle of nowhere in Texas. And what is that on that video? It's on the bonus list. It's about the unbox set. Yeah, that's the same, that's when there's a video of Matt asleep at the bar. I don't know that existed.
Starting point is 00:40:56 There's a lot of stuff I had heard stories about, but I didn't know there were video of it. There's also a video on there, like the first time we had to shrink wrap a palette. It was Comic-Con. It was when we were leaving that day, we had to shrink wrap our own stuff to get it. We're fucking professionals with that stuff now. Yeah That was funny Yeah, it's a lot different. We had the wet sock on the sand Yeah, we're doing that big shrink wrap stuff. Yeah, who's the dude who discovered that shrink wrap stuff? That seems like a rather new invention. Yeah, I don't know. That's a good question
Starting point is 00:41:22 There's big rolls of shrink wrap when you move and that's awesome You know normally when we go to a convention like when you're packing up to leave you put like stuff on a pallet and you go tell them you're you know you're ready to check out and they'll they'll give you some shrink wrap and you can wrap up your pallet. When we wrap it packs East they don't give you the shrink wrap. You can buy a wrapping service from them and they send a dude over and for 85 bucks. He will shrink wrap one palette for $85 an hour. He'll shrink wrap. Oh, no, he's $85. Oh, that's right. That's $85 an hour minimum one hour. Yeah, that's right. And we had to sit around and guess that
Starting point is 00:41:54 They said all this dude in the world to come shrink wrap our palette man He'd worked his way to $85 in our position. He's not going anywhere Yeah, and the thing is like I felt bad for him You know because he was kind of an old-frail dude, but I was like, you don't want to help the guy. Because I'm sure it's some union thing. And he's got to do the job himself. Union's a serious deal.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Yeah, you don't fucking own the unions. Gus and I, Gus was there when I was threatened by a union guy. Then if I touched his dolly again, he was going to break my arm. And then he laughed. And then he was very serious. He said he's got a smile. And then he laughed. And then he just they're looking at me like don't fucking Like like I'm joking so that you don't call the police, but I'm serious. Yeah, where was that?
Starting point is 00:42:31 It was in Dallas of all places. That was Dallas where they had a Texas is not big on unions But they had one there. It was a union convention center where we showed. Yep. So have you guys ever gone a quake con? Yeah, yeah, I really yeah, we went in 2003. I think 2003, 2004 like you know booth or you just want to go check it out. We work we Did a panel there or something I think yeah, we did a panel on machine of it was me Matt and Bernie I believe yep, Matt was still living in LA at the time. Yeah, he flew in for it I may actually I may go to it this year that I've told you about the doom thing I worked on right yes Yeah, so I might they may do a screening of it
Starting point is 00:43:04 So I might actually go up to check it out. Oh, cool. What's the Doom thing? Did a heat voice over machine them a thing for Doom, my friend? Oh, yeah. It's called Quakerinas. It's pretty cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:15 So. I don't even know what Quakerun, it's just a, at this point, what do they do? Is it a land party still? It's a one of the games that's playing. It's a gaming event. Yeah. It's like Blizzcon, except for just, you know, more like it's all it related stuff like last year they showed off Doom 2 I think for Xbox live arcade which still isn't out yet, and I think they're gonna show to you. They'll have that there
Starting point is 00:43:34 Yeah, like the price show rage Yeah, rage. I don't even know when that comes out later this year next year. I don't know man Remember when they like they they did it that like Macworld or something and like whatever happened with that Oh John Carmack on stage. Yeah, yeah, John Carmack's a little busy going into outer space at this point armadillo You know error whatever was it armadillo aerospace? Okay, you know, hey, what's the deal? Anybody know I'm gonna ask a dumb question because I know nobody knows The bungee aerospace logo has started showing out places.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Do you know what that is? No idea. Nope. Any idea? Maybe it's futurewarfare2.com. What does that mean? That was a joke. That was the Activision went ahead.
Starting point is 00:44:14 So you need a setup before you can deliver a personal. Activision just recently registered a whole bunch domains. And it was like they registered Call of Duty future warfare. They registered Call of Duty future warfare two and three and then a whole bunch of other ones like that that all reference the future in space and stuff. Probably a good idea. I guess made a bunch of money
Starting point is 00:44:32 because he registered Final Fantasy 13. I registered ffxi.com. Final Fantasy 11. Which turned out to be the MMO. Oh, right. I registered it like, man, before Final Fantasy eight came out, I read it for the thing did they buy from you? No a gold selling site bought it from me really yep you trader I don't care What do I do shit? I mean money anyway this logo started showing up places for bungee aerospace and nobody really knows what it's about
Starting point is 00:45:03 You know for Bungie Aerospace and nobody really knows what it's about, you know. I think it's an energy thing like I love bees. Well, I think it's probably more like the keep it clean, you know, Virgil thing that started showing the places and then it ended up being just a kind of a preview for ODST when it was coming out. Well, Bungie Aerospace.com is coming soon. There you go. So what could it possibly be? That looks kind of the airwalk logo,
Starting point is 00:45:26 a little bit airwalk shoes. I have some Latin on it, I don't know what that means. Once you look it up, you took Latin, when you had the internet. Something to the stars or to the heavens? To the moon, Alex? To the moon, Alex. Can you read the actual Latin that was there?
Starting point is 00:45:42 So our Latin-speaking podcast listeners? Per audacia ad ast straw. That was terrible. Yes, it was. It probably out. Outdoch. Yeah, oh, it's through hard work to the stars through hard work to the stars. Okay. There you go. So something is coming. Something is in the pipeline. So should we do E3 predictions? You think Bunchie is going to announce something in E3? No, they already said. Oh, man. said that they're focused on reach to the end of the year and they'll be no announcements about their next thing. What else do you think we'll be big deal? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:46:12 360 slim. Yeah, some sort of a new 360. Maybe a 360 that has Nathal in it. I'm thinking gotta get Blu-ray in the 360, they have to do it. I don't know, at this point, no, I don't know. I was a big supporter of it, but at this point, I don't know. Wow, you two, it's a lot. Yeah, I don't. I don't know at this point. No, I don't know. I was I was a big supporter of it But at this point I don't like you too. It's a little bit. Yeah, I don't I don't I think they got to get it Here's why is I my kid was talking about the PS3 in the Xbox and I asked what do you like about one versus the other He goes well like the Xbox and it's just because we have more games for that
Starting point is 00:46:43 But he goes the PS3 is cool because it has more movies on it like he doesn't understand But he's right essentially you know you've got a bad job as a parent explaining the zoom marketplace to him I guess I have yeah, I'm probably the only person in the office that doesn't have a blue ray player And I don't feel like I'm missing out in any way. I don't have a blue ray player anymore But the quality is way better. It's blue rays catching hold I mean it go to Best Buy and it's not like three aisles at Best Buy. The Blu-ray players are also super cheap finally. Yeah. You can infer 120 bucks now. I prefer digital delivery for everything. Yeah. Says the man who bought a Roku. Yeah, for digital delivery. Oh wait, that's right. I just
Starting point is 00:47:18 backed you up. Thanks. I'm gonna buy a boxy box when it comes out this year. Whatever comes out. What about those things? I want one of those. My name is boxy. I mean, I mean, say that. I can't I mean, they should hire that girl to be the spokesperson for boxy, but I one thing I wonder about digital delivery to is I have purchased a lot of things I'm digital delivery games on demand all of that and You know, they get paid for that once But theoretically you can keep your library online and download it as you need it that's a lot as people build up their libraries that's
Starting point is 00:47:51 a lot of traffic going back and forth of downloading these six gig games that's a good call or even the TV shows like I buy all my TV shows through zoom marketplace and I stream them I don't even download them yeah I was and I watch episodes five six times on a row. I was clearing up, hard disk space on your, uh, What? How fucking boring are you? I really like one show that I'm not gonna name because you get mad about it. But I watch the same episode. I watch the same episode. The sicker hearing about hip-hop.
Starting point is 00:48:14 Intervention. Intervention. Always sunny. I watch always sunny every night. I watch the same episodes over and over again. And I stream them every time. I, I, I don't even know you were gonna say that. I don't know why you brought, I was trying to move on.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Fuck you. I was too tired of hearing about so E3 predictions So Blu-ray you think that my my big I think my big surprise I think is I Have a suspicion that Peter Mollany will say Fable 3 will be in a tall only I Have a suspicion that they're gonna unveil the tall and Brian Lam is gonna steal it I checked it and post the pictures of this moto I don't know about that because the Fable 3 cover leaked the other day and it said it was for PC. Oh really? Yeah, it's it for Xbox. Well only for Xbox and Windows. I'm willing to bet though at least. No fucking. I'm willing to bet they will release like a bundle pack with like
Starting point is 00:48:56 Fable 3 and Natal. Probably. And then it'll be like it all certainly have aspects to Natal in Fable 3. Because Mollini who's been all over it like he was like the you know Spokesperson forward like the dog to not to Milo. That's what it was. Yeah, that's pretty much all but been confirmed that Fable 3 is gonna work with Nathal though. Yeah, has it. Yeah, that's what it is One of these I predict there will be video game announcement to D3 I predict that Call of Duty black ops will have information at D3 I think they're right Jack is, is that they have not, not the subtext, it is the text, you know,
Starting point is 00:49:28 that linehead will be working with. Linehead's been pretty good about anything that they wanna do, they'll support. I mean, they being Microsoft, that linehead's like, play ball with them. They were the first people to do the episodic thing over games on demand for a full game. I read that that was tremendously successful too.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Yeah, I mean it was, I liked it, you know, it was kind of a pain. It helped me learn how to manage my DRM stuff a little better. So there was a little bit of a learning curve, but now I feel I love games on demand. Hey, didn't you tell me the other day that you really just got really into oblivion? No, I kind of did. I started playing it and then I'm just busy with production so I kind of fell out of it but it was it's cool, you know, I mean it's it's it's an older game now and it definitely shows its age a little bit but it's a good game and really yeah
Starting point is 00:50:15 it's maybe I gotta go back and get it. It's Bethesda if you like fall out and you like um what's the other thing to make? I was just a mass effect but that's not right. Uh-oh. No, not even close. Yeah, so they but if you like fall out why wouldn't you like Um, what's the other thing to make? I was just a massive fact, but that's not right. Uh-uh. No, not even close. It's far away. Yeah, so they, but if you like fallout, why wouldn't you like the believe you in, right? Man, can't wait for some fallout in New Vegas. New Vegas. What is that coming out? It's the June, right?
Starting point is 00:50:33 Huh? June or July, right? No, it comes out in the fall. Is it the fall? Yeah. It comes out October, I think. Oh, crack then two comes out. Yeah. Like June or July. So excited. Maybe Jeff can find a babysitter so he can play New Vegas. So you can play that in generalizing, too. A lot of Vegas themed games this year.
Starting point is 00:50:48 I guess there is. Yeah, Dead Rising 2 then there was Rainbow 6 Vegas. Was that less than a year ago? No, that was more than your goal. Yeah, Vegas 1 and 2. There was a sequel. Yeah, Rainbow 6 Vegas 2. Wow. Did you play the first one? Yeah. I played past where the Dodge Nitro was in the in the spotlight and you couldn't shoot it. Alan Wake was driving me crazy with that. There's a bunch of positive questions now. And then like there's shots set up in cinematics specifically where you see two characters talking in a vehicle and the sync by Microsoft logo is very prominent in their due in car navigation system. Wait till they're like take this
Starting point is 00:51:23 energizer batter flashlight They don't really see that do they know, but it's like a flashlight. It's got the energizer logo on it really yeah Yeah, there's the miracle whip in skate three that they're like an actual sponsor and doctor There is a miracle whip achievement. Yeah, there's there's like four sponsored achievements in skate three But but they're like you know, they're like when the the team mobile contest, when the the monster contest, that's not a big deal, but yeah, those are actually are those actual like real events though. I think so. I know those guys sponsor a lot of stuff, but like the miracle lips kind of funny, because this isn't like the the trick called the miracle whip that you have to do to get the miracle whip achievement. Is that a real skateboarding trick? No, I'm, well, I guess someone could
Starting point is 00:52:02 do it, but I've never seen it done. It's no It's like do a body flip and it's like yeah, that doesn't happen I'm gonna like Danny way you could do it Real world it's called the 720 sell out The miracle whip Move to get the miracle whip achievement is that what you see? The achievement is called don't be so mayo, but the logo is like the mw of miracle it Don't be so mayo. We did a video for it. Actually, it's got a reference
Starting point is 00:52:30 That sounds like a pun that I don't I don't get the reference either. Yeah, it's like go see a doctor pepper It sounds like a joke, but it's not a joke don't be so mayo. Yeah, I don't know. It's supposed to be emo Don't be so mayo. Yeah, I don't know. It's supposed to be emo. I don't think so. I don't know I don't think so. I don't think it fits. That's the thing where it's like they handed that to the lowest level guy that coming like fucking We gotta do what? Yeah, we gotta write a fucking achievement for a fucking your clip It's like give it to Bill, you know Give it to him. He's like, oh, I get to do my own achievement title I don't realize you've been Mr. Bill from She even titled it. I don't know, I didn't realize you've written Mr. Bill from Saturday Night Live.
Starting point is 00:53:04 That's my intern voice and he comes and he pitches and he goes, here's what I got, fellas. I got, don't be so mayo. You should hang out with Pongos sometime. I typically don't like, or I typically don't mind, it gave me advertisements like Ghost Recon had like Dodge billboards everywhere. And I don't mind the Doctor Pepper machines in Skate 3. But when they affect the achievements like that,
Starting point is 00:53:25 like the old spice red zone achievements in Madden or like achievements in cutscenes, like in Alan Wake, that's just too much. Now see, I don't, like, I used to think like, if we got in-game advertising, maybe games will get cheaper. Nope, that never happened. Yeah, absolutely. That's where I have more than anything because they were fucking hard on those games. But the best product placement I've ever seen in my life is it's when it's subtle, but it's consistent.
Starting point is 00:53:53 The TV show Friends had probably the best product placement because you can't think of the stuff that was product placed on friends. There was so much product placement for Tivo in in friends from I think from day one of that show and it was it was fine. It was totally fine because they didn't make a big deal about it. They weren't like let's use the Tivo you know, you know, we blew you know and all that stuff. But there was a literally on one of the characters named Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox. I can't remember Rachel and Monica. Yeah. In their apartment on next to their TV was one of those T-Vo dolls. And it was there, I think from like season four on. And I was a big T-Vo fan. So I was like,
Starting point is 00:54:30 the fact that hopefully T-Vo was going to grab hold. But that's not a big deal. But Jesus, yeah, that old spide, that's what I remember too, is that old spice achievement. Yeah. It's just too much of a callout. But like, if you're skating around and you see a Dr. Pepper machine, that's fine. If I was skating around in real life, I could see a Dr. Pepper machine. Yes, that's totally fine and acceptable. And. Pepper machine, that's fine. If I was skating around in real life, I could see a Dr. Pepper machine. Yes, that's totally fine and acceptable. And in some ways, it's better than seeing like some fake soda. You know, and then I had to stop and look at the fake goofy soda name they came up with
Starting point is 00:54:52 and they think they're clever and I'm really not funny. Like those stupid machines in Halo 2. Oh, the Rooster Teeth logo? I was going to say, accepting a few. I'm actually going to be around here. There was some marketing and Rainbow Six Vegas going back to that, like playing the multiplayer stuff. I remember a level where there was a movie poster and every now and then it would be empty, but occasionally it would be a real movie poster. Correct, I hadn't had that too, I think.
Starting point is 00:55:15 Like that's kind of what I was referencing in Rainbow Six Vegas, like one of the early levels, like you have to store them a casino or something, and that you can blow up all the cars and shoot them outside as you're going in except for like the Dodge Nitro Which is under a spotlight. It's like it's a very obvious place. There's a light coming from nowhere That's illuminating the car and you cannot damage that car. You can damage all the other cars on the street But not the Dodge Nitro isn't there something to say let's take the Dodge Nitro like in a cutscene to am I crazy? I don't know that might be a movie or they actually say the name of the car. That sounds like heroes Maybe that is heroes. Yeah, it's something like that. I showed or the island that is canceled heroes. Yeah, it's not that yeah about three seasons or four seasons to Lage, you know, else is that canceled lawn or
Starting point is 00:55:55 Which one all of it long? They're written a lot original on okay Dunzo where they canceled it like the executives had fun with that they go you're cancelled That's how I would deliver that message Where's the last long order like how do you have a finale for that show? So they solved every crime that we bring all 400 cast members back I bought a new heart wakes up and my wife was saying that they should, like if they're angry after being, you know, been cast for 20 years, that they should just go crazy their last few episodes. Like, have aliens in Vade New York. And they're like, it's like in space now. And they just
Starting point is 00:56:32 go like totally off the deep end. Space law. Was it NBC? Yeah. It'd be a great like your last episode was like, uh, an NBC executive is accused of pedophilia while killing the pan. I was right. I was totally hit. And then the end of the resolution is that the NBC executive can't finish this trial because he killed himself by choking himself while jerking all the time. You have to get revenge in some way. Oh, that would be awesome. Oh, God, I just, I couldn't imagine though.
Starting point is 00:57:15 I really couldn't imagine being handed that assignment of the year, the guy who's got to put miracle whip in skate three. And it's a three, right? Yeah. And like, that's a title. It's like, do you not understand your own audience that you would do that that they're not gonna react well that Miracle whip huge in the skating community Love skaters universally love mayonnaise and then you say like and then I can imagine the meetings to where it's like okay Now it's like Miracle it we got to put the brand name in a trick because kids love that. No, then they'll maybe they'll go out in the real world. They'll be doing the Miraculous. It's like you're a fucking idiot. You know, this is become a catchphrase.
Starting point is 00:57:50 Somebody will like fall down on the skateboard. Oh, it's so mellow. Dude, don't be some mayo. Come on. The beat's stream. Don't be so mayo. I think they all drink your monster energy drink. They also redesigned their logo with curious timing, like right before skate three came out. And if you've seen it, it's just like the M in the double you know and we're
Starting point is 00:58:07 talking about it. Yeah, there you go. Totally fucking works. You know, Pepsi has these throwback. This is like the product podcast. Oh, we are a sound of products today. But the Pepsi has these throwback. They have throwback Pepsi and they have throwback Mountain Dew. And I didn't realize that Mountain Dew started as this. I should clarify. The bottles have the old labels from the 70s. They have throwback Pepsi and they have throwback Mountain Dew and I didn't realize that Mountain Dew started is this The I should clarify the bottles have the old labels from the 70s They've had the old Pepsi logo and they're made with sugar as opposed to you know that corn poison That's in everything we've talked about this before on the podcast actually. Yeah, have we okay?
Starting point is 00:58:38 So so that's some point though somebody does something really smart with Mountain Dew where they made it this Over the top stupid that at some point though, somebody did something really smart with Mountain Dew where they made it this over-the-top stupid brand. Extreme! Yeah, extreme brand, but it stuck, right? It did work. You know, and they seemed to tie in that way just right with the X games, like... Yeah. It's weird thing, because everybody knows Mountain Dew, but I don't remember where Mountain Dew came from, or... It just seemed to come out of nowhere.
Starting point is 00:59:00 That's what I was all about. Yeah, he marketed it to Hillbilly's at first. Like one of the Ozarks. But like in the not is the 90s that all of a sudden, they started. Yeah, I mean, I think in the late 70s, is when they, the mid to late 70s, is when they stopped those old ad campaigns and then tried to make it a more mainstream soda.
Starting point is 00:59:16 And then it was in the early 90s when they tried to like tie it to the X games and made it more of like an extreme thing. And then in the past 10 years, now they're trying to tie type more to gaming and gamers. Right. And it was the thing when you first started hearing about Mountain Dew with those really over-the-top ads with their flying around with the cans in their hand.
Starting point is 00:59:33 It seemed like something that had always been there, but it really wasn't the case. It's a really good introduction of a brand, I think. Yeah. Kind of like the double down. It's when you put you fine when you do a Google image search for a miracle whip. What is that? I have no idea girl lick in a can a miracle She's big fan. No, I like it. Oh Girl don't be so mayo I'm just using it all the time
Starting point is 00:59:57 Don't be so mayo That's gonna be my new when you catch phrase or my new quote on Xbox live Don't be so male. Don't be so male. Don't be so male. I have to go back to my planet now. You guys excited for the finale of Lost? We talked briefly about it. Yeah, excited about the fucking finale of Lost.
Starting point is 01:00:16 I can't wait to hit Wikipedia Monday. I cannot wait to see the reaction. I'm really very interested in it. If they can pull it off and everyone's happy, not everybody, but most people are happy. I don't think it's gonna happen. Just endings don't work that way. And people are just, they're not going to be happy with some stuff. Yeah. It'll be really, really interesting. Let's think what we talked about the other week, you know, when Damel Indelof and Carl Tuckius were talking about it and they said, you know, it's like, if you
Starting point is 01:00:38 start answering questions, it's just like a little kid. There's always a follow up question. There's always a why. Why? Why? Why why why why why why like eventually you just have to say Hey look here's here's a trucky cheese Just distract him and that's what we're doing now is we're saying here's a trucky cheese Yeah, that's what the last season is Nice that's a weird thing to say when you're showing Dude I want pizza for lunch now. It's gonna hold up and pie. Oh, we almost didn't do it. We almost didn't do it Let's go to Locally owned and operated hobo can pie for lunch. Yeah, I'm located at seventh and red river man
Starting point is 01:01:09 I am behind on games dude. I am really behind I look at this big stack of games that Jeff has I'm the guest that you should bypass all of those games and just play red dead redemption You guys haven't even talked about playing Alan Wake like you mentioned the energy Yeah, I went when I was out at I was out in a metal of honor event out in LA, and pretty much there's like 40 of us there, about half the guys there who are already beaten out on the week. Like they'd all got it early and they beaten it, and they say the ending is awesome, and they loved it.
Starting point is 01:01:35 I mean, to quote you, you said they said the ending was sick. They might have been talking about vomit sick. That ending was totally male. I will say that the first 30 to 45 minutes, I thought were pretty rough. I played for about an hour last night and I turned the game off because I was so upset. You got, but the sad thing is, is you literally turned it off right where the game starts to get good. It's a good game. I spend an hour. Why wasn't it good for the first hour? I don't know, dude. I don't know. Like, and the dude looks just like Christian Bale to me.
Starting point is 01:02:03 Oh, I wondered what you meant by that. Yeah, he looks just like him to me. It's super distracting and I don't know I'm still gonna play the game, but my my first impression in the first hour is I am not a fan. I will say I think the Episodic thing is really cool. Yeah, you know one of the One of the scariest most varied Compliments that someone can give to a game. When I hear it and I haven't played the game is, when somebody says, you're gonna love this game, it has great writing.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Because that is such a specific thing to everybody and video game writing is not like anything else. I have not been impressed with the writing. There's a narration in this game. I don't like narration in general, but it's pretty over the top. Right, right. But I will say the like, the game is continuing to improve as I go.
Starting point is 01:02:48 Like I'm halfway through the third episode right now, and thoroughly enjoying it. But the first episode was pretty rocky. I heard chapter 6 is supposed to be great. That is it, 6. Episode 6, whatever. I haven't touched the game yet. I'm about, once we get back from lunch, I'm going to drop in red dead and get sucked into that. Yeah, you got to catch
Starting point is 01:03:08 I haven't played it at all, but I made a comment Jeff I said to the first cut scene and I said this just shows how high unchartered set the bar sure Yeah, for presentation of cinematics in the video game. I mean unchartered is a chart to fucking incredible Yeah, it's good. It's a good series You know, it's like people who make movies are suddenly making video games all of a sudden. It's really good. And you know, and I'm not the biggest PS3 fan in the world, but it's worth it, you know, that game. But like writing, when people talk about, especially when you play video games, it's so different. If somebody tells you this game has awesome writing, you're gonna love it that person probably also loves Donny Darko and V for Vendetta. There's gonna be a third one in the
Starting point is 01:03:52 trifecta right? I'm sure there is. You're just sitting our entire listener. He's like clerks maybe? God Donny Darko was such a piece of shit. I would put clerks on a different level in fucking Donny Darko. Or V for Vendetta. Yeah, Donny Darko, Jesus Christ. Yeah, people who like, if you're, if you go to DBG collection and you have Donny Darko and V for Vendetta in there, and those are really great movies,
Starting point is 01:04:16 you probably also like Napoleon Dynamite a lot. I know, I don't know what it is. It's there's something else. There's gotta be a third in that trifecta. Maybe it's yet to come, you know? When it does come, it'll signal the end of the world. I don't know what it is it's there's something else there's got to be a third not trifecta maybe it's yet to come you know when it does come it'll signal the end of the world I don't know what will be like the insane clown posse biopic or something I don't know what it'll be it'll be it'll be you're so mayo the movie if somebody tells me they liked the movie V
Starting point is 01:04:43 for vendetta I like them less. I would just knowing that. Definitely. I lose respect for them. What's worse, saying they liked it or quoting it, quoting it's got it's worse. Yeah, especially with the VVV speech. That doesn't happen that often. Does it? I don't think I really did. Well, Internet happens a lot. Or like, remember remember we'd get hacker threats and they would always want to happen on the 5th of November. Oh, that's right. You guys are in big trouble. This is like emo day, November 5th.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Oh, speaking of anniversaries though, um, Star Wars has, or Lucas has decided to do something very cool. They are releasing a bunch of Star Wars gear for Xbox Live marketplace and avatars in celebration of the 30th anniversary. Really? Yeah I mean tons of stuff like you can have a you can have a taunt on pet as a prop. I find one of those immediately. I mean you can dress as every major character like you can get lando calories, you can get blue outfit and even to the point where you can dress like a hawth, rebel soldier. It's tons of stuff.
Starting point is 01:05:49 Dude, they gotta make a killing off of that. Oh man, these look great. The fucking snow stormtrooper. Yep. The bowl of fat looks like a ghost. Can you be the stormtrooper from Indoor? The guys that rode the speeders? This is 30th anniversary of Empire.
Starting point is 01:06:02 30th anniversary of Empire. It's just Empire Empire. Okay. Nine to two buck, I had looks a little weird a little weird. It makes sense. So it's all Empire stuff It'd be great. You do if you could get you get like a add-at the great if you get a ton ton You're like cut open and see it looks like you get a little ton ton pet You know, I have a Yoda hat and see there's the hot rebel that's cool costume Dude that is fucking awesome. It's pretty cool. I have to miss pretty cool If I was gonna get a pet though, I don want like a womp rat pet or something like that
Starting point is 01:06:27 That Yoda hat seems kind of weird and out of place though. I guess that was the only thing they could do I would want like salacious chrome to be my pet Salacious girl, that's perfect. Sit on your shoulder and laugh So that'd be what two or three years from now you get this salacious chrome oneman. Yeah, probably Yeah, would it be 82 so be 2012 would be the 30th anniversary. Oh, well, you've only got to Have him for a couple months before the end of the world. You know what dude? I'm not Turned up my nose at that anymore. Yeah, nope. I'll turn up my nose extra free. Turn up your nose. I turned up my hose too. Did you guys see that they had fucking softball Size hail in Oklahoma this weekend? No, what had fucking softball size hail in Oklahoma this weekend?
Starting point is 01:07:05 No. Think about that! Softball size hail! Softball size hail! That'd kill a dude. I've seen bigger. What? It's vegan to whisk, guys.
Starting point is 01:07:12 We had to build car ports. I know. Did the other day when there was a threat of hail in Austin, I went and ate star seats just like a park at the days in, undercover. Yeah, no kidding. Did you really? Yeah. I'm terrified. We have bad hail in Austin.
Starting point is 01:07:26 I don't want to, I guess I both have new cars. I don't want to get them in the truck. I'm trying to get a fucking contractor to build me a goddamn car port. And they all either want to charge a ridiculous amount of money or they just never come back with a quote. Yeah, go for your own contractors. Well, can't you get like some kind of cover for your car
Starting point is 01:07:39 that's a padded cover? I would, yeah, I've got some blankets like the case of the weather. It's bad. It's going to run out. She seems like I don't ever know of anybody who owns those things But it seems like everyone would want a cover for their car from hails coming through. I'm especially nervous because the top of my car is all glass It's all glass and solar panels. I'm sure it's not expensive to replace it all solar panels
Starting point is 01:07:58 Yeah, my car has solar panels that power fans inside of it So when you park like out in the sun and it's hot the solar panels Power the fans to suck out the hot air from your car shut the fuck up. Yeah, so that's brilliant So your car doesn't become like you know 180 degrees or whatever I had a maximum of one point in my life that I really liked and I had a feature on the remote where you can roll down the Windows as you unlock the car Mm-hmm, and so as you approach your car would vent all that heat out of there. Yeah, I think my car does that. Which by the way, in Texas is extremely important. Yeah. And it gets to be like what? 300 degrees of the car?
Starting point is 01:08:31 I've got that and I've also got the Boop AC. Oh nice. What is that? You can turn my air conditioner on. What? Yeah. Are you crazy? So if you push that by accident, what happens? You see it turns on for three minutes and it shuts off. Oh, that's cool. And what are you driving? Prius. Fuckin' it.
Starting point is 01:08:48 I want a Prius. That's pretty fucking cool. So like for example. They say you use the solar panels to keep it from getting super hot. Then when you're just about ready to go leave a couple minutes before you turn to AC on. And then it's not at all when you get it.
Starting point is 01:08:59 That sounds pretty cool to me. Don't give me buyers or more. Yeah, it's a little things like that that I care about more in a car. I'm not a very big car guy to begin with, but I would rather have better gadgets like that than a faster sportier car whatever. Sure. I don't get the use out of that. Yeah, my car is totally a gadget car. There's nothing. Nothing sporty about it at
Starting point is 01:09:20 all. Yeah, I'll be honest. I do drive badly. I'm not a bad driver in the sense that I cut people off or anything like that, but I just drive poorly. Like I stop the accelerator pedal until I'm going as fast and I want to go then I let off of it and then stop it again. I'm just not a very good driver. And I don't understand, to this day, why do people want a stick shift?
Starting point is 01:09:43 It makes no fucking sense to me at all. That kind of like stick shift. I like them too. But I don't understand it. It's a more immersive experience when you're driving and if you know how to drive a stick shift, well, you get better gas mileage. I don't see the immersive experience. That's what I don't want. Oh really? I want suspension of this place. Yeah, I know. For the first time in my life, I don't have a stick shift and I miss it. Really? Yeah. We also have a pretty sporty car too.
Starting point is 01:10:01 That sounds mental to me that you say that. No, I just feel like my hand feels worthless Like it should be doing stuff all in driving. There's grab your dick. I can do that But I'm left handed no problem. Good solution. Yes Some backwards don't be so male You know I finally you know they're finally gonna shut down the reach beta I think tomorrow and I finally got a skill of minjaro last night. I was so happy. Oh, did you? Yeah, I got a skill of minjaro. You know that's gonna be an achievement when the game gets what's today's date today's the 19th? Okay
Starting point is 01:10:28 Yeah tomorrow. Yeah, it's on tomorrow at 10 a.m. Pacific time Yeah, I'm excited to school of minjaro Are you sure there's gonna go for another two weeks? I don't want to upset you by telling you what time is gonna shut down And then it doesn't shut down you get to play more. We'll be like fuck this shit. What are we gonna play more this goddamn game? bullshit more reach you be like fuck this shit what are we doing more this god game game bullshit I mean Jack never got that animated but it's appreciated I think I got the animated in my head It'd be great if he wakes up tomorrow to play the reach beta for the last hour
Starting point is 01:11:00 and his Xbox has been stolen the night That'd be great I can't close him of bad events for Jack. What if you woke up one day just like in a warehouse and realized you got stolen There was nothing left so they took you know Jack just came back from a trip last night And when you walked into the office it's where I was like what they take this time. Yeah You know, I gotta say though Jack you're on fucking Twitter. I'm for LA I'm on a plane right now so you guys in five minutes LA and it's like why are you tweeting this shit after you've been robbed twice it's a good point and people are still at the house my parents lived there man what a deterrent what a deterrent that's
Starting point is 01:11:35 proven to be yeah well exactly you know I gotta say dude that guy and you probably delete this Gus whoever that guy is that stole your stuff that dude has a window that faces your driveway I guarantee I absolutely No, there's only one house that face in my driveway. It's a guy we know for like 25 years Drug addict huh? Yeah, falling on hard times recession. You might want to check how many points he has in red dead Regemption He might have suddenly jumped up his gamer score this previous week. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:06 But I want to say one thing about the product placement thing, though, too. And Gus, you might want to edit this back into more relevant part of the podcast. There is an appropriate level of product placement in video games. And we've seen it. And we've seen it done very well. Burger King and Doritos, they did it very well. That Doritos free game that they put out that was probably the single best Sponsored thing I've ever seen anyone do yeah because they had a they had a free product that you could download and
Starting point is 01:12:36 It was a great game and it was fucking Doritos the whole way through it. I didn't care. Yeah, I totally didn't care It was also an easy 200 points. Yeah, but it's a fun game fun It was a fun 200 points. Yeah, so it's a fun game. It was a fun 200 points. Yeah, so you sit down playing for about an hour and have a really good time doing it. Actually, on the flip side of that, Burger King also had one of the worst achievements. A four fight night round two, I think it was.
Starting point is 01:12:54 Fight night round three. Round three? Yeah, like the King, the Burger King King would walk with you to your match. And then if you won, you get the Burger King themed achievement. It was terrible. Yeah. But Burger King did do the thing where they put out those three games
Starting point is 01:13:07 Those three games talk about racer and those others. Yeah, it's me getting over here. Eric's right there That was cool. Yeah, absolutely. We're totally bypassing the Toyota Yara's game Did you play that? Yeah, I downloaded because it's like oh free 200 gamer score And then it's like to get that 200 gamer score you'd have to play for it in like 20 hours or something like that. Are you serious? Yeah, I don't get one achievement in it. The last the last achievement was to buy Toyota Yaris. That's how you got it. That Burger King Fight Night achievement is a hundred gamer score. Yeah. Well there's only 10 achievements in that game. 8 and 8 and 8 and 9 I think.
Starting point is 01:13:39 I think there's 10 hundred point achievements. 8. What's up? Because there's 150 point achievements in that game. Yeah. Well, raise your hand if you have a thousand points in the game I'm gonna play to fight night game if you want a thousand points you can get that probably about five hours I can honestly say Matt has never seen Jeff with video games when I beat him at fight night multiplayer oh shit yeah he got legitimately upset about that. What was fucking lag? And there's one of those things where you play against the computer, you're like, yeah, I can beat the fuck out of anybody.
Starting point is 01:14:10 And then you realize he doesn't know how to block. He's just he's throwing haymaker after haymaker like block bunch bunch bunch and the shit out of a piece getting mad is hell. Did he ever one punch knock anybody out? And that came? I don't know. I don't think so. The first fight night for the original Xbox, I played with my roommate. And I think I was Rocky Marciano versus I forget who he was. And I parried his first swing and I caught him on the job and dropped him. And he'd get up. It was incredible.
Starting point is 01:14:37 He thought the game was broken. And that's the only time I've ever done. It was literally the first time the two of us fought. It was incredible. You can't fasten it. It can be done. But it would be awesome if you hit them so hard that it break his Xbox like knocked him out red ringed it it kind of reminds me of a that old gameplay mechanics deal battalion had where if you died and you didn't eject from your mech it would
Starting point is 01:14:59 erase your save game oh really yeah I love that yeah you like you have you know the stupid talent have that huge controller and everything and if you didn't hit ejecting time the game would just delete your saving you have to start over video games these days man there's not enough pain in horror and that was like a $300 game is hit by the fucking controller and everything dude somewhere right now there's a dude who's still playing that game like five hours a day is like the best steel battalion player in the world I've got that game yeah I thought you got rid of it no I? No, I thought about solving it, but I never did.
