[00:00:03] [SPEAKER_01]: The following is a GNC podcast production.
[00:00:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Welcome to Geek Addicts, the pop culture podcast.
[00:00:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Hello and welcome to Geek Addicts, the pop culture podcast we've talked about all things.
[00:00:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Geek, my name is Matt, with me, my co-host who managed to break away from the episode of 4
[00:00:51] [SPEAKER_00]: and I'm going to do this podcast with me. Bill, why right?
[00:00:54] [SPEAKER_00]: How's it going?
[00:00:55] [SPEAKER_01]: You can't see my hands, you don't know I'm not playing it right now.
[00:01:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Fair enough.
[00:01:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing all right. Just, uh...
[00:01:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Actually, you know what I do know you're not playing it right now because if you were
[00:01:08] [SPEAKER_00]: out here the music.
[00:01:10] [SPEAKER_01]: The music could be muted.
[00:01:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Now I can't win it in mute.
[00:01:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you wouldn't mute that game.
[00:01:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Don't lie to me.
[00:01:17] Yeah.
[00:01:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing all right.
[00:01:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I've been... this has been one of those weeks where I'm like, I just don't want to be...
[00:01:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to do anything this week.
[00:01:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm right with you.
[00:01:31] [SPEAKER_00]: There's a crazy week of work trying to get everything caught up and...
[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Trying to get a little bit ahead of the game since I'm working this coming week and then I'm going
[00:01:41] [SPEAKER_00]: to Maine for like 8 or 9 days.
[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_00]: So trying to leave things in a decent state for when I go because I also found out today that apparently
[00:01:52] [SPEAKER_00]: they got like a co-op temp kid who they want me to train in last next week.
[00:02:01] [SPEAKER_00]: So apparently he's going to be taking over for me while I'm gone and if we'll see how that goes.
[00:02:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Co-op kids, what? I remember being the co-op kid back in the day.
[00:02:14] [SPEAKER_00]: I never made it to co-op but...
[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I have worked with co-op kids before at least one particular and it wasn't a fun experience.
[00:02:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I've never worked with one directly. I remember being one.
[00:02:31] [SPEAKER_00]: You gotcha?
[00:02:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:02:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, best of luck to you, and then.
[00:02:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we'll see how that goes.
[00:02:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Jesus.
[00:02:43] [SPEAKER_01]: So, you know it's funny because I know that street and I'm always like how the fast they going.
[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_00]: You'd be surprised. People do not care on this room.
[00:02:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Has anyone jumped the code of the rotary at this point any point?
[00:03:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, tons of times.
[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Jesus.
[00:03:04] [SPEAKER_00]: We saw something white bottom that motorcycle there once.
[00:03:06] [SPEAKER_00]: He was fine, but it was freaky for a minute there and we didn't know what was going on.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_00]: How bad it was.
[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Boy.
[00:03:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we've had some drunkards go right over that little island.
[00:03:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so it's fun.
[00:03:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Easy week. I went to a...
[00:03:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Me and Alex went to a convention last weekend.
[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah, had that go.
[00:03:32] [SPEAKER_01]: It was good.
[00:03:33] [SPEAKER_01]: It spent a lot of money. Probably more than a should of people.
[00:03:39] [SPEAKER_01]: We've learned that people just convention etiquette has been getting worse and worse every year since COVID.
[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_00]: I've noticed it.
[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_01]: But other than that, it was a pretty fun experience.
[00:03:50] [SPEAKER_01]: A lot of people.
[00:03:51] [SPEAKER_01]: It was honestly a lot more packed than it has been in the past.
[00:03:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Which is interesting because Connecticut is a very...
[00:04:03] [SPEAKER_01]: An episode covering it. It's not going to be out for a couple weeks, but we described it best as...
[00:04:10] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a convention that is very confused on what it's trying to be at times.
[00:04:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, isn't just kind of like a general object or kind of...
[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what it's supposed to be, but it's...
[00:04:23] [SPEAKER_01]: It's very anime dominated, but then there's also a big gaming component.
[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And then it's...
[00:04:29] [SPEAKER_01]: He also got like, does a wrestling ring?
[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Is that just the thing? The inventions I've noticed lately?
[00:04:35] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like the vast majority of like, pop culture convention this nowadays tend to have at least some...
[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Leaning towards the anime crowd.
[00:04:47] [SPEAKER_01]: It was very big this time around, particularly with the merch selection.
[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_01]: There wasn't a lot of gaming booths, like, goodbye games, like retro stuff.
[00:04:57] [SPEAKER_01]: It was mostly, like, a lot of anime figures, little like merch, nicknaps and things.
[00:05:04] [SPEAKER_01]: One manga booth, one hand-dibuth, yes, laid there was a hand-dibuth.
[00:05:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Of course, that's always a lace one.
[00:05:11] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's a reference to on Discord. On another server I mentioned that was going in...
[00:05:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Someone at the server had asked, like, what kind of convention it was before I could answer,
[00:05:22] [SPEAKER_01]: and then I was like, what's the best way to say just take the hand-dibuth?
[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Which I responded, yes, they're usually at least one booth, which there was.
[00:05:30] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's hilarious because, like, the booths, like, backdrop is literally just a bunch of body pillows.
[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And then a big voice that just says, yeah, we...
[00:05:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, well, I guess they're covering both bases, I guess.
[00:05:43] [SPEAKER_00]: And then, hey, well, whatever works for them.
[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_01]: But I laugh though, as it's always packed. Like, that booth is always packed.
[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And you guys do you, I guess, give me something a lack of shame.
[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_01]: You can get pretty much all of that free on the internet if you look hard enough.
[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[00:06:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And a lot of art booths. I bought a few paintings. They're not close to...
[00:06:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Didn't you see it? Wasn't it like a FF8 poster?
[00:06:13] [SPEAKER_01]: So the FF8 poster was the one that I was most happy with just because, like, you don't find FF8 stuff often.
[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_01]: I got an also, like, a year of painting, a dinges in my heart painting, and then this really awesome Lucina from Fire Emblem Awakening.
[00:06:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I also bought a couple figures for my backdrop, including what I thought was interesting, because she doesn't have...
[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I've got a lot of figures that are normal, but I found this really awesome, uh, Cheechie figure.
[00:06:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh nice. Like, it's not her in the stupid, like, kid bikini thing, like, armor thing?
[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's the 23rd Tinkai Chiburo Kai.
[00:06:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the end is Z, like, because they've been doing a ton of these dragonball figures, like, that are really well detailed and...
[00:07:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Super high quality.
[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Nice.
[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I've got the 17 one back there. I've got a... my and a Chew as well. Just a couple of them, but I saw the Cheechie one, I'm like, wow, Cheechie, it doesn't get figures like ever, and that's one that's not like weird. So...
[00:07:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. There. On this subject though, I'll say it now, since I'm planning on giving it the first try tomorrow.
[00:07:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Um, when I do the watch party then, I had this idea. Like, literally, like last night, I was going to bed and I...
[00:07:37] [SPEAKER_00]: It was like this close to falling asleep and, like, lighting a struck, and I was like...
[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Holy crap. All the old, like, two-nommy promos and bumpers of stuff, like, people recorded that and put it on YouTube.
[00:07:50] [SPEAKER_00]: I could take those off of YouTube and I'm gonna...
[00:07:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I was like, like, like, like, like, like, Tom bumpers and stuff.
[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_00]: That could be cool.
[00:08:05] [SPEAKER_00]: So, I'm gonna try to do a test run for that tomorrow. It's probably going to be a little choppy that first run around because I, you know, it's short notice to just kind of like throw it together, but...
[00:08:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I think we fun. You know, kind of kind of, kind of, kind of like what tonight is trying to do right now with the tsunami rewind, but, you know, actually do it.
[00:08:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, boy. I did have a few...
[00:08:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I was gonna say there was a few moments that they can mention though, or it just made me, like, you start realizing that you're getting old.
[00:08:39] [SPEAKER_01]: So, there was one booth of figures and I remember there was a bunch of girls that I'm assuming of where it's still in high school.
[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'd over... One of my favorite things is conventions is you just over here, some of the most fucking wild shit.
[00:08:55] [SPEAKER_01]: But they were like, I can't wait to have my own place so I can just buy nothing but it. And I think years and I'm just looking at them like, oh, you have no idea.
[00:09:05] [SPEAKER_01]: But what life actually is...
[00:09:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, I guess we'd see him in a chat.
[00:09:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. I think I said that in my head at the time, I'm like, uh, nice. It was to be young and naive.
[00:09:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. I'm your kids and we thought that we'd be able to do whatever the fuck we want them when we were adults.
[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's like... Like, I'm like thinking to myself, I'm like, I have this one corner of my house dedicated to stupidity and it's just because I like it as a backdrop.
[00:09:33] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, no, it's a lot more expensive and you're not gonna have nearly as much money as you think you do.
[00:09:40] [SPEAKER_00]: That's for sure.
[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_00]: So I finally did it. Finally caught up with the MCU. I still technically have like five episodes of the new X-Men series, but I mean, that's like nothing.
[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_00]: So I've officially done it. I'm done. Going to see the dead pull movie this weekend, hopefully, depending on when time, sinning is at a work tomorrow night.
[00:10:05] [SPEAKER_00]: So, um, to finally put that behind me until they drop something else.
[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Isn't it really kind of set how much for drop and quality? It's been lately.
[00:10:14] [SPEAKER_00]: It's just been weird because like, with the first few phases, it was like, alright, we're gonna lean real hard into like, you know, the ones everybody knows, Captain America, Thor, you know, Iron Man, all that stuff, and then like ever since end game, it's just been like, like, like, like, on known after unknown, at least for me.
[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_00]: But well known with like, marble first or whatever, but like, and it seems like every single one is like, it's a random hero that I've never heard of before.
[00:10:48] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's based around some sort of mythology, it's like they're kind of trying to recreate what it managed to do with Thor and Loki and stuff.
[00:10:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I've like, the moonlight was like really heavily based off of like Egyptian mythology, it journals was like, I think Greek mythology.
[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_00]: And it just kept going like that, like all sorts of different one like that echo which I think is the most recent one was like native American mythology.
[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_00]: And it just like, there's so many of those too and it's just kind of weird.
[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_01]: It's interesting when you think about it because the original MCU like the Iron Man and it's like the starting point.
[00:11:30] [SPEAKER_01]: When you actually look back and think about it, the MCU originally started as they were basically it was a bunch of beelisters because.
[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Marvel didn't own the right standing of their a list like super heroes anymore because like Spider-Man obviously is owned by Sony all the X-Men or were owned by Fox at the time.
[00:11:50] [SPEAKER_01]: They literally had they could only use what they had which was a bunch of at the time like beelisters because a lot of people don't realize like Iron Man was.
[00:12:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Not a mainstream hero around that point like he was kind of a.
[00:12:05] [SPEAKER_01]: He was known but he wasn't like the he wasn't like a spider-man or like X-Men.
[00:12:13] [SPEAKER_01]: And they kind of built the the MCU originally around all these like lesser heroes that weren't nearly as huge at the time.
[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_01]: And because it was so well done now they're all like massively popular and well known.
[00:12:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well I mean is it they were kind of already doing that with with some of them were because like some of the like first few phase movies and stuff were definitely like lesser known when they were just comics like.
[00:12:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Like unless you were like a super Marvel fan I don't think you knew who the guardians of the galaxy were until the movie started coming out.
[00:12:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Also because the guardians were completely different team in the comics before that movie.
[00:13:02] [SPEAKER_00]: So I get why they're doing it because they're trying to kind of.
[00:13:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Like recreate that kind of thing it's I feel like it's kind of harder with the series though because ever since endgame it's been a lot of series as it was the movie yeah.
[00:13:17] [SPEAKER_01]: It's been there's just too much content there the problem is they're trying to do the building build up a universe thing again the problem is though it's because like we kind of reached the logical peak of.
[00:13:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Where this was going to go with endgame now it's kind of like we've hit this.
[00:13:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Kind of wall now we're like interest is kind of starting to wane I mean super hero movies in general just aren't.
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_01]: That big anymore like people kind of got tired which is why I think DC's gonna struggle with their.
[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_01]: New second attempt any universe that they're trying now yeah why.
[00:13:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like Marvel would have had better luck with these newer phases if they had tried to implement like some of the other teams that are well known earlier like out there like I could tell as I was going through them there obviously trying to build up X man and fantastic for like mostly X man but it does before too.
[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_00]: If they had started that process sooner.
[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Like in days four then they probably would have had better reception.
[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the problem is though obviously licensing rights they couldn't.
[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_01]: They've only now kind of finalized that.
[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_01]: The other issue too that's going to it's going to be a pain in their existence no matter what.
[00:14:43] [SPEAKER_01]: The new X man could be great but people are going to unfairly compare it to the original series.
[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah that's true because I mean let's try not to beat them I mean as much as this the new X man will probably be more accurate to the actual books.
[00:15:03] [SPEAKER_01]: It's good there's a reason why people are the dead pull movie is from what I've heard doing so well it's because.
[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_01]: A Ryan Reynolds understands that character but also Hugh Jackman literally is will vory to this point like he is yeah completely mastered that character and I just I get he's old now and he really wants to retire from the role but it's going to be very hard to replace him.
[00:15:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Well at this point is retired from the role like three times he has and I think he only came back for this one because of the the occasion of it.
[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_01]: It's understandable because this was kind of a people want to see even the damn yellow suit does really all people wanted to see.
[00:15:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Based on what I based on what I was reading I this is probably going to be Ryan Reynolds last for a is get full at least it's like movie format.
[00:16:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Just kind of sad because I don't think anyone could do that character just to stay either.
[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Probably not but I mean you never know who knows.
[00:16:11] [SPEAKER_01]: One of the problem when you put these um.
[00:16:14] [SPEAKER_01]: These big characters in these roles and then they become so iconic it's it's one of the reasons why they kind of are in this problem now where they had to write off Captain America and Iron Man and stuff because they just the actors can't do it forever.
[00:16:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah that's for sure.
[00:16:33] [SPEAKER_00]: That's for sure.
[00:16:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah I don't know how they're going to I don't know how they're going to manage them because they've already kind of like semi introduced Patrick Stewart is Professor X and the MCU.
[00:16:46] [SPEAKER_00]: And you know he's not going to be able to do forever so it's like all right well you already kind of established him as the professor X in this universe as well.
[00:16:55] [SPEAKER_00]: So when they actually do make that I spend movie I could bring him back or they kind of try to do somebody else because you know he's not not exactly as pretty chicken anymore who knows how long they're on well so I always figure that's why.
[00:17:08] [SPEAKER_01]: The main the original X been series had introduced the younger.
[00:17:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Professor Xavier because they were trying to shift to the younger care cast and do more stories with them.
[00:17:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah that's one of those things you never know.
[00:17:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah I will see I still want to go through all the all the X movies again has been a while.
[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah they start off really great and then they get through kind of bad period and then they get good again and then they get that again.
[00:17:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah well I mean there's this things are like about them either way like even if it's kind of like whatever it's still fun.
[00:17:46] [SPEAKER_01]: It's still funny to be wouldn't it when you watch like Xman origins Wolverine and like the scene with.
[00:17:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Dead full and you're like wow they completely missed a mark on this one yeah no kidding.
[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah I don't know I'm I'm looking forward to see where it goes I just I just feel like Marvel is taking too long with like the ones people really want to see.
[00:18:13] [SPEAKER_01]: But that's how they come out people just like yeah whatever Marvel's kind of going through an identity crisis right now which is is understandable they've been going at it for so long now like they're rebranding their entire company like I've noticed like they've got a whole new logo and everything coming out.
[00:18:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah I noticed that.
[00:18:32] [SPEAKER_01]: But I mean as a long time DC fan I've always been just kind of used to this because it's literally.
[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_01]: DC goes through an identity crisis every five years so.
[00:18:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Hmm I got you but yeah so.
[00:18:50] [SPEAKER_01]: You killed enough time on our little rambling I think we should get into our discussion for this episode which is also going to be mostly rambling.
[00:18:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Um we were going to do kind of a ketchup style episode like we had done want to wild back.
[00:19:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I think you're ago now at this point something like that.
[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_00]: I think we've been going for a year quite yet but.
[00:19:12] [SPEAKER_00]: And it was around I think it was right after my trip and yes that's the January.
[00:19:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah isn't the start of the year anyways.
[00:19:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Um but we were going to kind of just talk about gaming like what's going on gaming was and just other things like that.
[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Keep it kind of chill should be pretty laid back episode.
[00:19:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah just kind of general conversations about games and gaming and what we've been playing what we've been playing on playing in the future and so on.
[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Um.
[00:19:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it had a place to start I actually wanted to bring up.
[00:19:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Fire emblem three houses turned five years old today.
[00:19:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh really?
[00:19:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah it was a so I've been actually like in the mood of replay that game.
[00:19:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Recently and I think the fact now that the five year anniversary just hit I'm kind of like thinking maybe now is the time because.
[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_01]: That is it so that that's a game that came out for me like the perfect time like that came out.
[00:20:15] [SPEAKER_01]: I still remember that came out 2019.
[00:20:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I remember because I was I went during we were still at Richards at the time and I during my lunch break I'd driven over to give stop to go pick it up because I had it preordered.
[00:20:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I remember and.
[00:20:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Not sure why I was so desperate to get it because it was getting what have been there after but um.
[00:20:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah I remember I went and got it but then it kind of sat for a bit because I didn't really have time to dive into it.
[00:20:46] [SPEAKER_01]: A big tactile RPG like that and then of course.
[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_01]: That COVID hit and we weren't doing much at that point.
[00:20:55] [SPEAKER_01]: So that that was like my COVID game. I think I played all five roots and basically did everything in that game over the course of that nonsense back then.
[00:21:07] [SPEAKER_00]: You know like a little bit off top if you know it was actually kind of cool cool about.
[00:21:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Working together as essential workers during COVID is we're not like at that point we're already working together and things we're just kind of like whatever there anyway so we could just hang out and it was no big deal because we were together all the time anyway.
[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah it was that was such a weird thing because like it's funny talking to like a bunch of people I know now and like everyone was all like oh yeah what did you do during lockdown I'm like we didn't we were saying.
[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_00]: I continued working that's what I did.
[00:21:42] [SPEAKER_01]: I had to go to work every day and it should on my people outside for why was I out.
[00:21:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah right.
[00:21:49] [SPEAKER_01]: You're a weird time that was.
[00:21:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_00]: I started playing bad luck for beginning bottom in the past week.
[00:22:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Rehydrated to the original.
[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah on switch.
[00:22:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no. So the switch ports gotten better.
[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Thankful thankfully because when it first came out.
[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_01]: It was rough really.
[00:22:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah slow down like really bad texture pop it the texture pop and still kind of happens but that's.
[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_01]: That's unfortunately just an aspect of the switch that you kind of have to use to.
[00:22:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_01]: It's gotten better they've patched it quite a bit.
[00:22:28] [SPEAKER_01]: It is a very faithful remake also.
[00:22:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Just good you know I'm honestly not 100% sure if I've played it or I know I played some sponge ball games I don't know this is one of them.
[00:22:45] [SPEAKER_01]: It's definitely one of the biggest it's the biggest the most famous one.
[00:22:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Mostly because it was a legitimately good license game back in the day but also because that game has one of the craziest speed running communities like ever which is kind of.
[00:23:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Cool.
[00:23:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I watched a whole documentary on it.
[00:23:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It's it's mental how people have like broken that game up.
[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Broken it apart to the speed run it.
[00:23:13] [SPEAKER_01]: But that's part of also partially the reason why it got to remake was because the community before it was so huge.
[00:23:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Even though the speed running tricks don't work in the remake.
[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Fair enough.
[00:23:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm enjoying only a couple hours in right now like two or three hours or so but I am enjoying it so far.
[00:23:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Definitely like definitely a love letter to this bunch of Bob especially like the early days which is because that came out 2000.
[00:23:39] [SPEAKER_01]: The re I want to say so that was like right around peak sponge ball right before the movie.
[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_01]: The series was literally right at it. It's all time high.
[00:23:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, there's one of the jarring not having actual metocrats voice.
[00:23:56] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's something that's kind of jarring is they didn't re record any of the lines for that game.
[00:24:00] [SPEAKER_01]: They just ripped the original dialogue from the 2003 game.
[00:24:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Which I mean,
[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_00]: but it's plenty of remakes have done that.
[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_01]: But I feel like that's a game that I probably did need every dev at least get get Clancy Brown in the do Mr. Krabs lines.
[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_00]: He must have been around I thought I heard that he passed.
[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think somebody else.
[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm pretty sure someone else.
[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because he does.
[00:24:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I see Brown spending so many video games like he was Neo Cortex in the first four crash games.
[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_01]: He was in Jack and Daxter, Jack 2 I want to say.
[00:24:44] [SPEAKER_01]: He was in Starship True Bird.
[00:24:46] [SPEAKER_01]: He's been around.
[00:24:49] [SPEAKER_00]: He was in the flash series.
[00:24:52] [SPEAKER_01]: He was also.
[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_01]: He's been in a lot of stuff. He still love.
[00:25:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I believe.
[00:25:03] That's good.
[00:25:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I had the Shawshank Redemption.
[00:25:07] [SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't that too.
[00:25:08] [SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't that.
[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_00]: It's been a while since I watched that.
[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I've been playing that a little bit although I might have to put that one on old for now.
[00:25:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Because I think Thrat got to pick the next game club game for on SuperPod.
[00:25:28] [SPEAKER_01]: He did and he didn't really go game.
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_00]: I have never heard of the game that he picked and blanking on the name because I only read it once.
[00:25:37] [SPEAKER_00]: But I had searched it and I think it's on sale and switch right now, like six bucks.
[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm probably going to pick it up and actually try to play along with everybody else this time.
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_01]: So for those who don't know the game in question is grim grim funding go.
[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_01]: One of Tim Shafers all time classics for those who don't know Tim Shafers is a very interesting.
[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Man in the gaming space he is responsible for some of the most creative games out there that all tended to get ignored during their time.
[00:26:11] [SPEAKER_01]: And have since become like all time classics like he made.
[00:26:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously grim funding go he made a game called full throttle, which was also a like a pointy click adventure kind of game.
[00:26:22] [SPEAKER_01]: He made psychonauts a really underrated platformer and he made brutal legend the most metal is fucking ever made.
[00:26:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Among many other games.
[00:26:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Grim fan dango was a cool one though those like his last game he made with Lucas arts.
[00:26:40] [SPEAKER_01]: It was PC only for a long time it's it's since been ported to pretty much everything like I actually have it still on my Vita and I'm actually might.
[00:26:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I might boot it up and try to play this one no promises, but I might.
[00:26:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I might actually try to do the game for this time.
[00:26:55] [SPEAKER_00]: You know he mentioned when he said the game he was picking that he he chose that one specifically because it was available on most platforms so.
[00:27:07] [SPEAKER_00]: And from from what I saw it doesn't have a super long like play time even if you're a completeness so.
[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_00]: That's one that I could probably get done I probably won't be the first one to finish it but all these be able to get through it and have things to say about it.
[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Now it's a fun game it's it's cool story Tim Shaper has a very.
[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_01]: He's got a very different way of telling video game stories and that's one of his better games.
[00:27:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Mm hmm.
[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Gotcha.
[00:27:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Speaking of other games we've been playing I've mentioned in the past but I'm still playing the the paper Mario 1000 year door remake.
[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_01]: That is just such a well made RPG like everything in every way.
[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Mm.
[00:27:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Give me so long today.
[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_01]: I hear you I fell asleep before the recording of this woke up given it's more hand.
[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah that'll happen.
[00:28:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, where was oh yeah, it doesn't your door though like.
[00:28:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It's amazing how a game from like 2004 2003ish can hold up so well even on even I mean it's been.
[00:28:22] [SPEAKER_01]: I've watched up and remade to a degree but it's still like the same game overall to edit its core and it's amazing just how well it's held up over the years.
[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Mm hmm.
[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_00]: And I probably stuff like that about a lot of games.
[00:28:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Especially like games that I never played before from like way back like some of the 90s games and stuff that I played for the first time like.
[00:28:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, it was me away how well some of them hold up.
[00:28:45] [SPEAKER_01]: It's it's actually really amazing to me like modern gaming has just not been doing it for me lately.
[00:28:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Like I'm just not interested in a lot of stuff that's coming out or the stuff that I am interested in and it's.
[00:28:59] [SPEAKER_01]: It's so far out that I'm just like, yeah whatever but um with the return all the retro stuff that's becoming so much easier to like experience these days.
[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I've been just like re-experiencing all these old games that like were forgotten back then and something a really good it's like it's a shame like that they missed out in their day but now at least they're getting a shot.
[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Like as much as the emulation is kind of bad I really have been enjoying the Nintendo online markets like the the Genesis then 64 super Nintendo like live.
[00:29:46] [SPEAKER_01]: It's just been cool like they've been we've been getting some good interesting games in there.
[00:29:52] [SPEAKER_00]: That's cool.
[00:29:53] [SPEAKER_00]: I haven't really played around too too much with that stuff.
[00:29:55] [SPEAKER_00]: There's definitely a bunch of games on there that I want to try.
[00:30:00] [SPEAKER_00]: I just you know I just already have a bunch of stuff on my play right now and some games that I've already you know committed time to and I want to finish like sand lands like that's one of the few newer.
[00:30:09] [SPEAKER_00]: games that I actually really want to get through the rest of.
[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Which probably gonna get put on hold for a little bit longer at this point.
[00:30:21] [SPEAKER_00]: But that's kind of as part of my problem though is like I have such a limited time space for like console games like games that are locked on like TV consoles.
[00:30:35] [SPEAKER_00]: So like if it's a game that I can play handheld like chances are I'll probably get through it a lot quicker than otherwise just because it's more versatile you know.
[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah that's understandable because like you can multitask with the handheld.
[00:30:51] [SPEAKER_01]: But you can have to be like you have to do the TV and kind of like that's got to be your thing that you're focusing on.
[00:30:58] [SPEAKER_00]: That's honestly the biggest reason why I didn't jump on a conference bad for it a last month is because of that.
[00:31:06] [SPEAKER_01]: It was partially that for me and just like I'm wise it's just it was the last month was tough like that was a tough month.
[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I was saying that like that one that one stream that Aaron did for the end of that game like I never.
[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_00]: I sighed from so think I realized halfway through like watching that that I think I have played the multiplayer on that when I was a kid.
[00:31:30] [SPEAKER_00]: But aside from that, like I never played the story and never watched anyone play this story so like I was watching all that shit happen and I'm like what the fuck am I watching right now.
[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_01]: The early 2000s was a very different time that's all I'll say.
[00:31:45] [SPEAKER_00]: I love that arrow gaming though it's just like the goofy as shit that came out back then it's just so much fun.
[00:31:51] [SPEAKER_01]: They would actually take risks on a mainstream like AAA games like not like now it is already so freaking safe.
[00:32:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah it's like the indie games or Japanese games in particular where they actually seem to take risks these days.
[00:32:11] Yeah.
[00:32:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Well hopefully at some point we'll see a turnaround and see more of that with like a higher budget but not but that's the thing is like people don't want to take those kinds of risks with a higher budget because it doesn't pay off and they wasted all this money and not getting it back.
[00:32:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Especially with how expensive games are these days like the amount of money it costs to produce these damn things it's one of the reasons why I feel like gaming is.
[00:32:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Get another crash because it's like the games are just getting more and more expensive as they go on.
[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_00]: But because they're putting so much time and effort into making it look pretty as opposed to just making a fun game.
[00:32:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Or I think it would need to look pretty and be super edgy to be fun like it could be silly and goofy and colorful and like weird and still be a great time you know.
[00:32:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Like another thing too is like this is just a problem that a lot of games that's kind of plaguing the industry right now is not every game needs to be open world.
[00:33:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like especially because it's cool that your world is massive but if there's fucking nothing to do in it it doesn't matter it's just the inconvenience at that point.
[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Which is unfortunately one of the biggest problems with most open world games these days that they're empty and yes, it.
[00:33:33] [SPEAKER_00]: That's kind of how I felt about like like when I was playing Kakaratha for a time like it was fun and enjoyable like just having like the kind of you know the run around and like whatever like yeah they had like the fishing minigame and.
[00:33:49] [SPEAKER_00]: You know there's a side quest is up but once you clear out like a bunch of the side quests it's like what is there to do you punch a dinosaur like okay yes.
[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_01]: What you didn't enjoy punching the dinosaurs eat I'm joking but.
[00:34:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean it was fun like the first two times.
[00:34:09] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a weird one because that game is very much a love letter to Dragon Ball fans.
[00:34:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Like you play that one for like the story mode and the cutscenes and stuff like it's like the having the open were end the vehicles like that was just kind of a weird like unnecessary thing.
[00:34:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Like what the fuck would jump bots for and like jump bots make way more sense than sand land that they do in Gakrat.
[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah Dragon Kakaratha was one of those games where it was kind of like it's cool to fly around and actually feel like you're playing as a character from the universe but like.
[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_01]: There was a lot of open space thankfully the maps weren't super hard to traverse like the quick travel was very well implemented.
[00:34:52] [SPEAKER_01]: So it was never really that you could move in fact supersonic speed all the time which was some.
[00:34:58] [SPEAKER_01]: And then again yeah I will say though the world's for pretty.
[00:35:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah and after a while I mean you could only find freaking belof gang so many times for you to board.
[00:35:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah trying to track down the fucking D-metals.
[00:35:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:35:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Because you need those to upgrade all your moves and I think you need those to like upgrade the training room back at the capsule court for stuff like.
[00:35:22] [SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of collect the thorns stuff going on in that game.
[00:35:26] [SPEAKER_01]: I will say though I do love the fact I love the fact that it covered the entire Zs.
[00:35:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Like that was yes.
[00:35:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Honestly I think like I understand why they always gear things towards Z because that's the flashy exciting one.
[00:35:42] [SPEAKER_00]: But if you may just like an open world like sand land style game but for original Dragon Ball, I think that would be amazing like just a high fantasy kind of.
[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Too feecibly like magical adventurous kind of this kind of game as opposed to you know just kind of recreating all the intense stuff from Z.
[00:36:08] [SPEAKER_00]: I'd feel like that would work.
[00:36:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Better for that kind of game.
[00:36:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah honestly, are you been super early I feel like super would make a good game as well?
[00:36:19] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm honestly surprised that what some of the DLCs that didn't put in any super story lines or anything.
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm surprised they haven't done a ton with super in terms of games like
[00:36:31] [SPEAKER_01]: the most we've gotten is like if you want to count like fighters like story line which is kind of takes place during super
[00:36:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, the universe too play there on with a lot of super stuff
[00:36:41] [SPEAKER_00]: true but but the thing is is I feel like Dragonball games have kind of like
[00:36:47] [SPEAKER_00]: have slowed down a lot since super came out
[00:36:51] [SPEAKER_01]: They kind of they but they kind of hit their peak with Kakarad now. They don't really know what to do anymore
[00:37:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well I mean we had let's see
[00:37:03] [SPEAKER_00]: and they have been trying new things. I'll give that to them you know like Dragonball the breakers like who the fuck
[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_00]: No one asked for that no one asked for that
[00:37:11] [SPEAKER_00]: But I mean I'll at some point I'll still get it and give it a shot
[00:37:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I still haven't gotten around to that but at some point I will I own it but I still haven't played it
[00:37:22] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you have it on?
[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's only on switch
[00:37:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Is it I thought of my PM PS5
[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I think I saw them right well if you haven't on switch I'll I'll see like if it's on sales sometime I'll pick it up
[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_00]: And maybe we'll we'll play a game together at some point
[00:37:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe if I remember
[00:37:43] Played
[00:37:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I made if I get it I'm obviously gonna test you
[00:37:46] [SPEAKER_00]: True
[00:37:49] [SPEAKER_00]: But I mean I do like that Dragonball games are trying new things and not just taking to the
[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_00]: 2D and 3D fighters
[00:37:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean we've gotten anime games have been interestingly. I mean we got one piece Odyssey which is
[00:38:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know how far Alex is in that but from what I saw it looks like a really solid RPG
[00:38:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I want to get that I've been seeing it
[00:38:14] [SPEAKER_00]: It's starting to get priced down a little bit so I might have to pick that up at some point in the future
[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Especially since it's like a turn based game for what I understand which is interesting
[00:38:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Same does the same land
[00:38:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, which
[00:38:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Weird because sandland is like more like cackerel
[00:38:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's funny but they also they also made the Pokemon
[00:38:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Diamond and Pearl remix
[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_01]: So let's just bizarre trio of games
[00:38:46] [SPEAKER_01]: They're good. They're different
[00:38:48] [SPEAKER_01]: They're good at making solid well made games. I'll say that yeah
[00:38:54] [SPEAKER_00]: But then we had the they track my fusion is like that came out back in 2016 I think
[00:39:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Wow, I think he's getting old
[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_00]: That was a very late 3DS game. Yes, yeah
[00:39:08] [SPEAKER_00]: It's kind of a shame that you know the reprimand ever gonna see another one of that
[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Because that was a really fun game. That was like towards the beginning of a super life cycle
[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I think they were still on like Goku black stuff. I think they added go a couple of Goku black characters as like DLC
[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_00]: We're like um like update like bonus content
[00:39:27] [SPEAKER_00]: But they never released anything past that for it
[00:39:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the support to that kind of died once the 3DS died
[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
[00:39:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is a serious bummer
[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I'm still I'm still bummed like my favorite dragon ball game ever is still attack of the sayons and I'm still bummed
[00:39:49] [SPEAKER_01]: That only covers the uh sayon saga
[00:39:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, is that what's nice?
[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_01]: It was just such a cool
[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Idea for a real turn based dragon ball RPG that was hardest fuck
[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I don't know. I feel like dragon ball work really well with those kinds of games like a you know traditional turn based JRPG
[00:40:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Just with dragon ball characters doing the dragon ball story and even if they want to just make up their own story
[00:40:17] [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't even have to follow the story of the show
[00:40:21] Oh, yeah
[00:40:21] [SPEAKER_00]: You guys make up their own kind of like how um the Shimbuto Kai games did
[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Kind of make up their own little alternate stories
[00:40:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
[00:40:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Yep, unfortunately
[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Creativity just isn't a thing anymore
[00:40:39] [SPEAKER_00]: But
[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Well
[00:40:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Either way I am happy that they're trying to new things and I am definitely gonna be getting sparking zero when it comes out
[00:40:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Super excited for that
[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_01]: I can't wait for all the the normies that have never played a tent Kai je game. They're gonna like why is it so complicated?
[00:40:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Well at this point like I mean considering that ziniverse 2 is still getting support
[00:41:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Still getting DLCs and updates and online support and everything I was at this that came out
[00:41:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Eight years ago. I think it actually came up the same year as fusions
[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, thanks so so it's been around for a bit and it's still getting plenty of support and it's
[00:41:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean let's drag them the 10 Kai je games are pretty much like the the prototype for
[00:41:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Like these kinds of arena fighters like
[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Because of the 10 Kai je games we got the raging blast games we got the ziniverse games, you know
[00:41:36] [SPEAKER_00]: That's kind of where all that came from
[00:41:39] [SPEAKER_00]: So I feel like they're probably just gonna take what they've mastered over the over the years and
[00:41:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Just kind of make it like the 10 Kai je games but with better mechanics
[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're they're good games. They're definitely not for everybody the
[00:41:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Cuz I always remember me and me and a schnickerman played
[00:42:03] [SPEAKER_01]: And Kai je 3 yet retroworlds and we had no fucking idea what we were doing
[00:42:08] [SPEAKER_00]: It's definitely a learning curve like I remember
[00:42:12] [SPEAKER_00]: When I first got the first-end Kai je game
[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Um at that point I was still very much used to like the boot of Kai style
[00:42:21] [SPEAKER_00]: So it was a huge learning curve going then the old boot of Kai is to attack
[00:42:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that in 10 Kai je 1 is kind of Jake. Oh, yeah, extremely
[00:42:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Even even two is kind of Jake to agree like three is probably where they
[00:42:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I won't say master that style because I still think it's not
[00:42:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Perfect by any means but um
[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_01]: The super armor was out of slow and horse shit. Yeah
[00:42:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I still remember those days when dragon ball games were bizarre
[00:42:57] Hmm
[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I still like every
[00:43:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I was just gonna say I love to have it's like every time you get a dragon ball game
[00:43:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like oh boy, what's the story mode? Oh, we're doing Z again great. Yeah, okay
[00:43:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I was actually gonna say if I'm writing my first blog for for the super pod site
[00:43:19] [SPEAKER_00]: My first ever blog so go easy on my guide but the time this comes out it'll probably already be on there
[00:43:25] [SPEAKER_00]: But I'm writing like a little article about
[00:43:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Dragon ball game is developed in the u s
[00:43:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is pretty fun
[00:43:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Right, I've never actually like
[00:43:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Try doing blogs before so it's it's interesting learning experience
[00:43:41] [SPEAKER_00]: You're gonna be talking about the good old web flip technologies games
[00:43:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it gets brought up. Oh, five out of the six are all webfoot so
[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_01]: I pretty sure that's all webfoot made
[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Dragon ball games and only
[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Move them are really good
[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_00]: They made another game there was like a bunch of garbage manners on thing but that's not yeah pretty much
[00:44:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because they made I mean, I know you like
[00:44:08] [SPEAKER_01]: You read it the first legacy ago, Kuba objectively that's a not a good game
[00:44:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm pretty much saying that exact phrase weren't for where in the article
[00:44:17] [SPEAKER_01]: They're best games by far were legacy ago Koutu and boo's fury cuz
[00:44:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's the shitty 2D fighter they made
[00:44:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Take a take a two yeah, I guess that's that's awful
[00:44:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Transformations was awful
[00:44:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Transformation wasn't that bad
[00:44:39] [SPEAKER_00]: I
[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It's definitely not as good as advanced adventure but as far as you know a side scrolling beat him up goes
[00:44:46] [SPEAKER_00]: It's not it's not terrible
[00:44:47] [SPEAKER_00]: It was fine. It's just I've there's so many better sides going beat him up so up there
[00:44:52] [SPEAKER_00]: And one thing that like because as as I was writing it like every time I would start writing about another game
[00:45:00] [SPEAKER_00]: I would
[00:45:01] [SPEAKER_00]: I would go over to YouTube and pop up my headphones and I would listen to the soundtrack for the game that I'm writing about
[00:45:08] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's been really interesting because I realized that
[00:45:12] [SPEAKER_00]: For all of these games they actually had some pretty good soundtracks
[00:45:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they usually did
[00:45:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Like the
[00:45:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Because all the
[00:45:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Like the legacy Goku games the GT transformation and Tikatsu all had well as aside from the first legacy Goku they all had very similar soundtracks
[00:45:36] [SPEAKER_00]: And in some cases they just reused tracks from previous like I forgot in that Tikatsu had almost exactly the same soundtrack as the legacy Goku to and three that app was very
[00:45:50] [SPEAKER_00]: But
[00:45:52] [SPEAKER_00]: What did you say?
[00:45:53] [SPEAKER_00]: GT transformation was interesting because it kind of did the same thing with the GT music that I did with the C music and
[00:46:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Like a C Goku too
[00:46:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Where it kind of did like the 8 bit version of the American GT music
[00:46:08] [SPEAKER_00]: But they kind of like come by it would track
[00:46:11] [SPEAKER_00]: But they actually kind of combined it with with some of the
[00:46:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Music that the use for legacy Goku to and in that particular format with like the 8 bit kind of style to it
[00:46:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Actually not bad like I actually it was pretty catchy
[00:46:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Is the grand tour in there?
[00:46:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Don't think so thank god. No
[00:46:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Darden
[00:46:36] [SPEAKER_01]: In all serious no this though. I'm looking forward to checking that out when you're done with it
[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Actually, I haven't announced the if I am working on a blog for the super pod network
[00:46:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm actually going to do a write up on the
[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Very obscure games from the 2000s, but the um the handheld sims games
[00:46:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh
[00:46:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Because for those who don't know the the Sims obviously life simulation series
[00:47:04] [SPEAKER_01]: But they attempted to put the Sims on GBA and like DS back in the day and
[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_01]: You think that'd be a recipe for disaster
[00:47:13] [SPEAKER_01]: But they actually they basically because they realized making a life sim game on a handheld was fucking stupid and was impossible
[00:47:21] [SPEAKER_01]: They um instead decided to make like action adventure almost RPGs
[00:47:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Well
[00:47:28] [SPEAKER_01]: So there's there's there's a whole bunch of them but the ones in particular like the Sims bust and out for GBA and like the herbs Sims in the city for
[00:47:36] [SPEAKER_01]: GBA and DS
[00:47:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Which are like these isometric like
[00:47:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Pop down
[00:47:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Action adventure games with there's like full-on story modes and like our kind of RPG elements
[00:47:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And they're they are way more in depth than they have any right to be in their surprisingly really good
[00:47:57] [SPEAKER_01]: And I've been just kind of working on a little right up on them because they're their games that I feel like it could believe for God about that should be talked about more
[00:48:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Just because it's like such a weird concept is like obviously
[00:48:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Sims on a handheld not gonna work. Let's do something completely different and somehow make that work
[00:48:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Never actually given uh given any of those a try they're intriguing me now. I want to try one there
[00:48:23] [SPEAKER_01]: They're interesting the story the fact that the stories go so fucking hard
[00:48:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Like in in uh herbs Sims in the city there is legit a point where you could be not by the villain
[00:48:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Throne into the ocean and you wake up in a bayou and you just need some
[00:48:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And then there's a freaking like vampire like side plot and like where wolfs and stuff it's
[00:48:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Was in an alligator man
[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_01]: That's very bizarre
[00:48:50] [SPEAKER_01]: This is in a Sims game by the way
[00:48:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah
[00:48:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so I'm gonna probably announce that on the network at some point
[00:48:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Within the next week or so once I get a little bit more finalized with what I want to write
[00:49:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I got you
[00:49:05] [SPEAKER_00]: It sounds cool though
[00:49:07] [SPEAKER_00]: um
[00:49:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I actually
[00:49:10] [SPEAKER_00]: To know what we were talking early about how I'm gonna try to do in like a little
[00:49:15] [SPEAKER_00]: First attempt at like the tsunami block thing tomorrow
[00:49:20] [SPEAKER_00]: And I don't think there's gonna be a super long thing because I'm only doing like
[00:49:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Like a four episode thing with like little promos and bumpers in between
[00:49:32] [SPEAKER_00]: So ultimately it'll probably only be about hour to half two hours
[00:49:36] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's thinking about uh streaming fable
[00:49:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Afterwards
[00:49:43] [SPEAKER_00]: At least for like an hour or two something like that because I'm gonna want to play them again
[00:49:48] [SPEAKER_00]: For a bit
[00:49:50] [SPEAKER_00]: And I thought that would just be a fun way to do it just you know
[00:49:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Everybody wants a pop-in can pop-in shoot the shit
[00:49:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, a fable to that as a game I got to pick up again. I started playing a bit of it
[00:50:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I just really need the time to sit down and fully
[00:50:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Excuse me fully immerse myself into that game. Hmm
[00:50:12] [SPEAKER_00]: You got you well Labor Day weekends coming up. I know it's still like a month away, but
[00:50:19] [SPEAKER_01]: That's true. I mean, I'm gonna be knocked out for a couple days not next week with a falling week as I'm getting my
[00:50:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Was demteeth surgery finally done, but oh
[00:50:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Man-trip can be nearly
[00:50:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that Monday and possibly Tuesday
[00:50:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking the Tuesday off but I don't know how
[00:50:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna be so we'll see there
[00:50:48] [SPEAKER_00]: But um
[00:50:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Would just do you stuff because I hope I don't know if you remember how far into it you were
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Not very far. I got through this tutorial and I started doing the the first quest
[00:51:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay
[00:51:03] [SPEAKER_00]: So
[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_00]: To start out
[00:51:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Whenever you have the money
[00:51:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Buy stalls
[00:51:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Because it's a good way to start out with just getting extra money because the way it works and be able to is you can
[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_00]: You can just buy pretty much any property if you have the money
[00:51:25] [SPEAKER_00]: And you're gonna just like if it's a bit if it's like a business or a store or something you can adjust the prices if it's
[00:51:31] [SPEAKER_00]: House something that you live in you're gonna just rent
[00:51:34] [SPEAKER_00]: You can make it like you know double the the normal going rate or you can make it like a quarter of the normal going rate
[00:51:40] [SPEAKER_00]: And that will also affect your like your morality alignment
[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_00]: But you can always change it afterwards and then you know your morality you'll adjust accordingly
[00:51:50] [SPEAKER_00]: True
[00:51:51] [SPEAKER_00]: But it's a good way to get a good chunk of change to start out if you just buy like because the stalls generally are only like
[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Couple thousand gold each and like you know you're not gonna get a ton of money right off the bat doing that
[00:52:05] [SPEAKER_00]: But if you you know if you pretty much get all the stalls available to you you'll get a decent starting point
[00:52:11] [SPEAKER_00]: And then you can actually start getting the bigger buildings
[00:52:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Because you don't get money from quests in that game you pretty much just get whatever you find and whatever you get from selling stuff
[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so pretty much buying and renting out
[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Buildings and buying businesses and stuff. That's that's the best way to make money in that game easily
[00:52:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'll keep that in mind as you're going through
[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_00]: It's good to know
[00:52:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's definitely a series. I want to get more into it's just been like
[00:52:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Having time to play RPGs really sucks
[00:52:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Unfortunately it
[00:52:51] [SPEAKER_00]: That's a fun one though because it's like it's not
[00:52:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You don't have to like get like two bogged down with like
[00:53:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Like stats of weapons and gear and stuff like you will put like a JRPG it's kind of like
[00:53:06] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think
[00:53:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Arbor value is a thing and that I think your clothes are just aesthetic
[00:53:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Gotcha
[00:53:16] [SPEAKER_00]: So pretty much as far as that goes pretty much only your weapons matter and there's no levels
[00:53:21] [SPEAKER_00]: It's you do gain experience
[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_00]: from everything you kill
[00:53:26] [SPEAKER_00]: But like there's multiple different kinds of experience
[00:53:31] [SPEAKER_00]: So there's general experience which you can use for anything because the way it works is you get the experience then you spend your experience points to unlock
[00:53:39] [SPEAKER_00]: skills and spells and stuff
[00:53:44] [SPEAKER_00]: And like you know you have general experience you can use for anything and then you'll have specific experience that you'll get from
[00:53:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Killings something with a sword killing something with a gun or killing something with magic and yes, so correlate accordingly
[00:53:59] [SPEAKER_00]: So you're not to think too much about how you're doing your stats because ultimately you can pretty much
[00:54:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Max out whatever you want to max out before too long
[00:54:08] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's yeah, you're not super constructed in that way so you can kind of just enjoy the game as you will and just pop in every now that and upgrade some stuff
[00:54:16] [SPEAKER_01]: True
[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_00]: So
[00:54:20] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a good just like kind of kickback and just play you know, you're not to think too much about it
[00:54:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah this
[00:54:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I think I know that now too like another game I got to get back into is uh
[00:54:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I was playing
[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Mass Effect series and I really want to
[00:54:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Jump back into those games because I still think those are like the best like sci-fi RPGs ever made
[00:54:44] [SPEAKER_00]: My buddy Matt you've met him a few times
[00:54:47] [SPEAKER_00]: He keeps getting off me about playing Mass Effect because he knows that I have a huge star track fan
[00:54:51] [SPEAKER_01]: He keeps saying that like I would love Mass Effect. I'm pretty sure you would because they are literally
[00:54:58] [SPEAKER_01]: They're literally space opera the RPG like they take so many tropes from like every like space opera sci-fi show
[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_01]: And they just kind of mash it together into this cool like RPG
[00:55:10] [SPEAKER_01]: storyline which spans three games
[00:55:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Are they on the switch?
[00:55:15] [SPEAKER_01]: They're not on the switch. They are on um Xbox one though
[00:55:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, the the legacy legendary collection
[00:55:24] [SPEAKER_01]: has all three games plus all the DLC
[00:55:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Plus they they uh fixed a lot of aspects of one so that they're all kind of on the same level now
[00:55:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay
[00:55:37] [SPEAKER_00]: All right, I'm curious because I kind of got all the cuz the switch doors have a big sale
[00:55:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I think we feel like the poor the July or something and I got yeah
[00:55:46] [SPEAKER_00]: I got the bioshot collection which is another game series and I'm played but I always hear good things about
[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_00]: So that's something I definitely intend to get into at some point in the future. I just
[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_00]: It's just a matter of time you know and
[00:56:00] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to kind of stick to shorter games right now so I can kind of get a decent amount of them done by the end of the year
[00:56:06] [SPEAKER_00]: There
[00:56:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Because the past past few years I the amount of games completed has been a bismally low and that's because I keep playing very long games
[00:56:17] [SPEAKER_00]: With the limited amount of time that I have to play
[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah games completed has been going down because I've been trying to balance that with reading manga
[00:56:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Watching anime reading comics doing trying to keep up with all the hobbies
[00:56:32] [SPEAKER_01]: And unfortunately when you have a lot of hobbies it really kind of causes you to split your time
[00:56:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's for sure with a little time you have I should say
[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Busters also this what we're doing right now is essentially hobby having three podcasts
[00:56:51] [SPEAKER_00]: weekly
[00:56:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Not to mention writing blogs with a site
[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I was speaking of games that've been playing recently. I'm three Dio the episode is out now, but we
[00:57:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Be in Thrac along with Aaron decided to play a game called tripped which is a
[00:57:08] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a match for puzzler like drop down kind of Tetris style game
[00:57:13] [SPEAKER_01]: very
[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Not amazing that of a decent enough puzzle game
[00:57:19] [SPEAKER_01]: on Monday I was doing my
[00:57:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Research for the episode I
[00:57:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Got stuck in a game that lasted two hours
[00:57:29] [SPEAKER_01]: It would not end and I was like I just want to go to bed, but I'm playing tripped or the episode
[00:57:37] [SPEAKER_00]: I hate when that happens when I'm just just like I just want to get through this
[00:57:41] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm just gonna get through this little cutscene or this little like section of this level and then I'll say if it go to bed
[00:57:46] [SPEAKER_00]: And that is like two hours later of like fuck I only wanted to play for another five minutes
[00:57:51] [SPEAKER_01]: That's like um that's like when I first played metal gear solid four the greatest movie I've ever played
[00:57:59] [SPEAKER_01]: The ending cutscene of that game is legitimately two hours long
[00:58:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Pretty cute
[00:58:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It's great like I fucking love metal gear solid four as much as it is as flawed as it is that game is the perfect conclusion
[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_01]: To the metal gear story
[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_01]: But my god the amount of cutscene
[00:58:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, I listen to that episode early the week. I really enjoyed it
[00:58:24] [SPEAKER_00]: But try to listen up yeah, but try to listen to more 3DO because I I I shelved it for so long just because I've never even
[00:58:32] [SPEAKER_00]: seen a 3DO in person let alone play any of the games so it's like
[00:58:37] [SPEAKER_00]: So one of those things where I had this habit of not listening to episodes if it's a game that I haven't played
[00:58:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to curb that because I know a lot of these games I'm never gonna play anyway
[00:58:46] [SPEAKER_00]: So is barely a point in avoiding it
[00:58:50] [SPEAKER_01]: That's kind of the reason why we started 3DO is just because it's really a cool idea to just like
[00:58:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Do uh do a podcast about like
[00:59:03] [SPEAKER_01]: A system that really nobody is heard of and then just kind of try to cover it and make kind of a
[00:59:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Time capsule as you could say for the thing that will be
[00:59:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Basically immortalized hopefully forever as a reference
[00:59:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Um
[00:59:20] [SPEAKER_00]: It's been fun. My hope is that
[00:59:25] [SPEAKER_00]: So I want to try and schedule a
[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Visit down to you at some point in the near future
[00:59:32] [SPEAKER_00]: I was gonna actually also talk to Cindy about trying to do that like liberty weekend if I can arrange my mom to take Francis for a couple days
[00:59:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Um
[00:59:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, then I could maybe I could pop on pop on the show with you in Threck talk about it
[00:59:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean we're open to anyone so
[00:59:59] [SPEAKER_01]: That would be a fun one to do our first import
[01:00:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, oh, it never was released over here. No, I think that came up before you hot show was dubbed
[01:00:09] [SPEAKER_00]: It's beyond us
[01:00:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Makes sense not even the
[01:00:13] [SPEAKER_00]: And it may came over here until like just three chosen four yeah, so it was way before
[01:00:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, way before like that
[01:00:22] [SPEAKER_01]: It's it's a it's a mediocre fighter, but it's it's fun for what it is
[01:00:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Fair enough
[01:00:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, I play plenty of mediocre fighters in my day. I'm not a not a
[01:00:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Hashined or afraid
[01:00:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Now I get you
[01:00:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm trying to think what else have I been playing recently
[01:00:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Not a whole lock has I been on
[01:00:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Good, well this week is better right off just because of it's weeks been kind of sucky, but um
[01:00:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I've been catching up on ironically out of my hobbies. I think manga has been my
[01:01:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Most
[01:01:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I tended to hobby recently
[01:01:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm
[01:01:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean reading all Pokemon adventures has definitely
[01:01:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Been a big chunk of that. I will say yeah, that's for sure
[01:01:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Is I just realized I finished all the collectors editions and an album on to back to single issues again?
[01:01:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's I mean that's what I've been reading all the time, but
[01:01:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's it's weird when you actually look back and you realize just how many of those we've read in the past six months
[01:01:30] [SPEAKER_00]: 29 volumes
[01:01:31] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's actually actually fair amount
[01:01:34] [SPEAKER_00]: What come on adventures is actually pretty long series
[01:01:38] [SPEAKER_01]: It is it's funny. It's 20 29 volumes is longer than cogiasama
[01:01:43] [SPEAKER_01]: um
[01:01:45] [SPEAKER_01]: I think like a call me is up to 30 volumes in the US now
[01:01:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I'd have to think of a few other ones like you hot shows only 19
[01:01:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, full metal optimist is 27
[01:02:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so it's like crazy how long adventure. I mean technically Pokemon adventures is like
[01:02:06] [SPEAKER_01]: I think like
[01:02:08] [SPEAKER_01]: 60 something volumes now
[01:02:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Easily easily
[01:02:11] [SPEAKER_00]: And I know that the the arcs are happen getting smaller as things have been going on, but still it's it's still I'm going for quite a bit
[01:02:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're all there's more so I think is there still making games and kasuga feels like writing it yeah
[01:02:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Pretty much
[01:02:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think that's the longest in like manga series I currently own
[01:02:34] [SPEAKER_01]: No, I think about it
[01:02:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Why are there any ash?
[01:02:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Any ash is 50 too well
[01:02:42] [SPEAKER_01]: I think any ash would might be longer on technicality, but I think
[01:02:47] [SPEAKER_01]: By what I own technically
[01:02:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Technically
[01:02:53] [SPEAKER_01]: What given adventures has more volumes at this point
[01:02:57] [SPEAKER_00]: I got ya as far as what I own. I think Naruto still holds the
[01:03:04] [SPEAKER_00]: positive the holds the belt on that one how long's Naruto?
[01:03:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Naruto
[01:03:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Not counting Boruto is 72 volumes and okay, there was an a 73rd quote unquote
[01:03:18] [SPEAKER_00]: It's actually like I
[01:03:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Think when you actually look at the side of it. It says like like
[01:03:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Because it's just called
[01:03:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Naruto the seventh hookhog again the seventh springs I think is the name of it and then when you open it up
[01:03:32] [SPEAKER_00]: The chapters are like
[01:03:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Like the they're numbered weird they're like 700 plus one 700 plus two
[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Because I think viewers on manga had 700 chapters total yeah
[01:03:45] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's just kind of a weird numbering thing where it's very clearly supposed to be like the 73rd volume
[01:03:50] [SPEAKER_00]: But they just don't want to say it for some reason
[01:03:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
[01:03:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because they kind of they get that finalized number than they don't really want to continue
[01:04:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so
[01:04:03] [SPEAKER_00]: If we're looking at that way the 73 volumes of Naruto before Boruto starts and then I also have like the first
[01:04:10] [SPEAKER_00]: At a 12
[01:04:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Volumes of that so I tend I do need to catch up with had some point but
[01:04:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I did you see a call me is officially entering it's final arc
[01:04:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, I think I I think I I think I just use them about that
[01:04:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Like another one's ending it's like like damn
[01:04:33] [SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of funny all the fans have been complaining that this they've been dragging out that story, but now that it's ending there all like no we don't want to tend
[01:04:42] [SPEAKER_00]: You know as funny is my my wife
[01:04:46] [SPEAKER_00]: I said you wanted a Kindle recently
[01:04:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is weird because her and I have always been very outspoken like
[01:04:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Physical media when it comes to like reading and stuff like it's not even a matter of like
[01:04:59] [SPEAKER_00]: wanting to own the book would any for me it is a little bit but it's more like the experience of holding the book turning the page
[01:05:06] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's different you know that I'm yeah, like being on a Kindle
[01:05:12] [SPEAKER_00]: But since she's getting she wants to get one anyway
[01:05:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm probably going to install this on a jump app on it and try to make a read some manga
[01:05:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean it's just good to have you know and now I already paying for it so if you know she wants to read something out of it
[01:05:34] [SPEAKER_00]: There's plenty there just on that alone
[01:05:39] Yeah
[01:05:41] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean she could read spy family
[01:05:43] [SPEAKER_00]: She loves this family. I think that's yeah, that's yeah, I read it on there
[01:05:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Um, no, it was you know the big three is on there
[01:05:52] [SPEAKER_00]: All the track and ball stuff which I mean I have all the physicals of that anyway, but yeah, there's plenty on there
[01:06:06] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I definitely want to try and try and do a stream of fable
[01:06:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Because I I want to just kind of get that moving because I've been due for a replay of that series for a while now and
[01:06:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's as way to go about it
[01:06:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Also
[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Sinney and I were talking about
[01:06:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Like as like a together thing
[01:06:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Streaming the
[01:06:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Like Mortal Kombat starting with like you know what the reboot started at nine oh not do like nine ten eleven
[01:06:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, probably do the DC one as well, but
[01:06:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Mortal Kombat for a DC
[01:06:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh that game
[01:06:45] [SPEAKER_01]: That game is
[01:06:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Technically good, but the the violence is so neutered in it that it's so weird
[01:06:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but I still have I still have fun with it. That was it heroic brutality
[01:06:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, heroic brutality
[01:07:02] [SPEAKER_01]: It's also pre new 52 DC so it was still in that era before things got weird
[01:07:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm
[01:07:10] [SPEAKER_00]: See yeah, they made something where we're definitely planning on doing because I found my copy of nine
[01:07:14] [SPEAKER_00]: I have ten already on the Xbox. I just need to get I technically have a weapon on switch
[01:07:20] [SPEAKER_00]: But I want to get it on Xbox because you know first of all it just looks better
[01:07:24] [SPEAKER_00]: And so you don't want to look at he has two models
[01:07:28] [SPEAKER_00]: No, it's it's not even as good as PS2 models honestly
[01:07:32] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean a plays fine which is like the most important thing, but like that's that's the best part of it
[01:07:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Mortal Kombat 11 on switch is it it plays so good, but it looks like shit. Yeah
[01:07:46] [SPEAKER_00]: But the other reason is because I don't have a capture card yet. I will get one eventually
[01:07:53] [SPEAKER_00]: But right now I don't have one so I'm kind of stuck on the Xbox when it comes to streaming on discord
[01:07:58] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah
[01:08:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I have a capture card but I haven't really
[01:08:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I know that's hard drive
[01:08:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Right about this little thing I haven't tested it yet, but I might
[01:08:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I might give it a shot at some point. Yeah
[01:08:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I know the big reason I want to get a capture card is because um
[01:08:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Technically it's Sanders, but we have a retry and square or retry and cube I forget which one it is
[01:08:27] [SPEAKER_00]: But it's basically a retry on that specifically dedicated to GB like GBA, GBC you know all the game boys
[01:08:36] [SPEAKER_00]: And it does go off of an HDMI so
[01:08:39] [SPEAKER_00]: theoretically I could stream the legacy of Goku games which would be really fun for me true
[01:08:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Not to mention you know all the other Game Boy games I have
[01:08:53] [SPEAKER_00]: That's true and if I got one of the like HDMI to AV
[01:09:00] [SPEAKER_00]: You know I have you know yes two games I could do game queue and 64 you know all that so
[01:09:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Open's up a world of possibilities once I get that so I'm most forward to doing it at some point
[01:09:12] [SPEAKER_01]: So I have a specific one I use I'll send you the link to it. It's a
[01:09:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Solid a converter
[01:09:19] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay
[01:09:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Um yeah other than that
[01:09:25] [SPEAKER_01]: We think going on for just over an hour
[01:09:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Any other games you wanted to highlight or do you think we should wrap this up?
[01:09:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Um, let a particular
[01:09:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Like I say I like I haven't playing a ton lately because all the time that I've been
[01:09:45] [SPEAKER_00]: I've been devoting to gaming I've
[01:09:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Kind of been setting aside to try and work out the logistics for
[01:09:52] [SPEAKER_00]: The watch party streams and I've been working my blog the past few nights so that's kind of been taken up my free time
[01:10:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Gotcha
[01:10:02] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean there's plenty of games I want to play like
[01:10:05] [SPEAKER_00]: This tons of games I want a stream but most of them are on at this which are PlayStation
[01:10:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Which I mean still I could I could still stream them much with me able to do it to discord
[01:10:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is what I really want to do
[01:10:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Because kind of like
[01:10:18] [SPEAKER_00]: You know part of the whole reason why I'm trying to get into that is to
[01:10:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Get to know people in the in the network better so
[01:10:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Not I get to there
[01:10:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think that will do for this episode of geek ethics
