Ever wondered what it would be like to have a comic book character's fate in the hands of artificial intelligence? We sure did! Join us as we tackle this topic while discussing the upcoming Deadpool 3 film, touching on the legal implications of Ryan Reynold's contract, and sharing our thoughts on why human writers still hold the trump card over AI-generated scripts from our bit with D'Avekki last week.
We're not just all about superheroes, though. In this episode, we dive into the world of gaming, talking about our favorite Xbox and PlayStation experiences and exploring the recent release of the Lord of the Rings game, Gollum. Its rocky reception sparks some interesting opinions, as well as comparisons to earlier LOTR games and other gaming franchises. Plus, we put our video game soundtrack knowledge to the test in a fun trivia challenge!
Finally, we can't help but reminisce about our adventures at Comic Con, meeting actors and cosplayers, and getting swept up in the excitement of the event. From debating the etiquette of asking cosplayers for autographs to sharing our personal experiences with meeting celebrities like Sergeant Slaughter, this episode is packed with laughter, nostalgia, and thought-provoking discussions. Don't miss out on all the fun!

Speaker 1: Welcome to Bucket Bites. It is the show with bite-sized bits and discussions. I am PapaPost And along with me today I've got the wonderful Josh Picard Hey, that's me, known for suggestive gaming, and Dom Just Dom Hi, known for being Dom And being from California. I'm not from.
Speaker 2: California. I'm from Virginia.
Speaker 1: My favorite guy, my favorite guy, callie boy. So, dom, it was a pleasant surprise. I thought you were not going to be here today, but you were, and it made me very happy. Me too, dom. We didn't have him last week, it was almost two weeks in a row without Dom. Was it two weeks in a row without Dom? It's been, it's been, yeah, almost was. I thought it just. I thought it just felt like that, because when Dom's gone it feels like ages. Yeah, my life gets pretty sad without Dom. It's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, go for it. What, what I?
Speaker 2: was. I was really worried about some. my grandma just had a shoulder surgery I don't know what the proper term would be, but her shoulder was all messed up and she went into surgery for it. Like she could barely lift up her arm because the shoulder was all messed up. So they put her in this big sling thing. It was like a little pad below her arm.
Speaker 3: It's massive, it's like different hooks and stuff that goes around your body.
Speaker 2: And today I had to go over there and help her out if she needed it, because the people that are with her had to go to work or had appointments. So my mom was like get your ass over there and help out your grandmother. I was like yeah, of course. So I went over there and I just helped her out and we hanged out the entire day and I was able to get home in time. I thought I was going to sleep over there, but it seems like everything works out pretty well.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's, that's a little bit of a worry Yeah.
Speaker 1: Glad you're taking care of your grandma and I'm glad you were able to make it down.
Speaker 2: So she's in like pain, of course, but you know the pills are helping her and I'm hoping she gets better soon. But the exercises she has to do are like unbearable for her.
Speaker 1: So rehab is always rough. She a wrestler? No, oh, okay. Well, i'm sorry. I don't know why that was a question. I don't know where you were going with that post.
Speaker 2: I tried to come up with a joke. I couldn't think of any.
Speaker 1: That's okay, We'll just let that go. So that's a great way to start after such a great episode last week with the crew from DeVecky. So if you haven't listened to that from last week, please go back and listen. They were a really good time and we actually debuted a new game, Dom. I don't know if you had listened or watched this show yet but we debuted a new game called Script Bites, where we kind of acted things out based off of an.
Speaker 1: AI generated script. But you know me being me, i didn't realize that there's currently a writer's strike going on, so uh, so yeah, we know we were kind of pushing the envelope a little bit It was yeah, it was poor timing, But okay. But to Tim, who was here to his point, it's why you hire human writers, because the AI script was pretty ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was, it was, it was so bad. But but you know, at the same time, that's what makes that whole kind of bit a bit right The, the weird kind of fourth wall breaking Dude. that was probably, without a doubt, the weirdest part of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It broke the fourth wall. Yes, yeah, that was weird. Go listen to it folks. That the whole episode was great. It was one of my favorite episodes we've done. I think they're pretty close with uh, with Cliff for my favorite guest so far. Yeah, They.
Speaker 2: Cliff was good, So they're there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cliff with. He's a good dude. He was a good dude. He was posing in the bucket.
Speaker 3: Bite shirt on the end.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you ever posted it on the gram. I was in the picture if it was cool. Yeah, i don't know if you ever posted it on the gram.
Speaker 1: But that's all right, that's okay, uh. But the reason I wanted to bring up uh script bites was because did you guys hear that while they film Deadpool three, that Ryan Reynolds legally cannot improvise anything while they shoot?
Speaker 2: Contractually.
Speaker 1: Well, right, well, yeah, contract.
Speaker 2: Legally is legally, that's the weird term.
Speaker 1: I saw that get thrown around a lot. It's not like he's getting fucking arrested, could you?
Speaker 3: imagine.
Speaker 2: Could, you imagine.
Speaker 1: Um, i just, I just thought that was so interesting that, Yeah, he's a writer and he's part of the WGA, so he technically can't write anything.
Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But like, is that kind of like, if you just improv, though you're not writing, you're not? Well, he's a writer on on the film though, So technically, anything he contributes to the film that's not in the script is writing. So yeah, it's a. It's a weird Like thing that I'm sure they're going to find loopholes around and stuff like that, But it is a. It is one of those strange Like well, uh, what sort of looking for? Go ahead, Who's auditing that? though? You know, like, If he just goes out and does something, is anyone actually going to be comparing it to a script? like you know, they might, they might if you get fined.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, i'm sure that'll really hurt. I'm writing the pocket books.
Speaker 2: Hey, it might be like improv before in the older movies.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, That's what I was wondering, Like well, I'm wondering how much of it is improv and like cause.
Speaker 2: I mean that's part of those kinds of movies, yeah.
Speaker 1: I guess Ryan Reynolds so good is. a lot of his improv, yeah, but how much do you think he just writes it to how he acts?
Speaker 2: you know, i found a little line here from the article. It says Reynolds improv, as the character is a big part of the Deadpool movies. So I think he was improving before.
Speaker 1: Well, there's no doubt about that. Yeah, there's. there's two options then he can. either he can either, you know, fudge it and improv and claim he wasn't, or pay the fines or whatever, or play it 100% to the script, and then they go back and do reshoots after the strike is over. So are we just writing off Deadpool 3 now? It's just gonna be shit. Oh, deadpool 3 is gonna be great. It's got fucking Huey in it Come on man. That's gonna be really good. Who, the lady who played Storm?
Speaker 2: Who was it?
Speaker 1: Was it? was it Helly Berry? Yeah, It was just a scene with white hair, did you see that? No, but that would make sense because I mean this is probably gonna be like the last we see of the like OG Fox, x-men, right, i'm guessing, whatever Deadpool does, i can, i can, i give my my theory Absolutely.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I think we're gonna see a you guys ever hear of the Deadpool kills the Marvel Universe comics. Oh, i think I have. I think we're gonna get something like that, but he's gonna. He's gonna kill the the box universe and then it can fully be assimilated into Marvel.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: Very well could be, Was no, forgive me because I'm not up to snuff on my superhero knowledge Was the Fantastic Four? are they technically Marvel or are they Marvel Who? who? well, they are, but I don't know who owns the Fantastic Four film license, because they made that really bad. Josh Trance Yes, Fint Fintforsick film.
Speaker 3: Yeah, i forgot about those.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so Fox own that. So now it's back to Marvel, which makes sense, because Captain Fantastic was in.
Speaker 2: Oh, Multiverse of Madness.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that was just the thought. Remember that. Just just go and kill everything that we were trying to not remember anymore Exactly. Well, he did that in Deadpool too. He, he, you know, found the X-Men Origins Wolverine version of himself. If you remember that, yeah, that was good Man. I don't know, it's gonna be. It's like anything that they can always reshoot shit later after the the strike at Yeah.
Speaker 1: And also I mean he's got a fucking, he's CGI a lot of the time and he's got a mask on, so I'm sure they ADR a lot of it. So Oh, yeah, oh yeah, that's a good point. Um, just kind of. That stands for uh, i forget what the A stands for, but it's dialogue replacement. So when they go into the booth after the fact and record voiceover, that's what I meant. Oh, okay, thank you for explaining to my pre brain, because it's very much a P brain.
Speaker 2: Um, my brain grew a little bit hearing that.
Speaker 1: You got a couple more wrinkles. Guys Happy to help?
Speaker 3: Woo, yeah, but that's happening to me anyways, but I meant to your brain, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's depressing Got a stand on the sun. Just while we're on the topic of movies, kind of Josh, you brought to my attention a game that I had not even known, was in development. They were so under wraps with that game, oh.
Speaker 1: I think, they announced it. Yeah, they showed like one trailer and everybody was like what the fuck? This looks so stupid. And uh, yeah, it turns out, so go ahead, post. What game are we talking about here? So I'm sitting here at work today just trying to get caught up, get stuff done, and then Josh is like Hey, i added stuff to our list for tonight. And I looked at him like there's a fucking new Lord of the Rings game that just came out, if you can call it that. So immediately I went to go pull up Twitch and I found somebody who's streaming it and I half watched and listened for three hours. And the point you made the title of your card is actually the Lord of the Rings golem is the title of the game, and you said that it released and nobody seems to like it. Um, i will say, the person that I was watching that was definitely paid to play it Didn't seem to hate it, or they signed a non-dispirited agreement, yeah yeah, yeah, this is so much fun.
Speaker 1: What, why, like, how? when did they release the first gameplay trailer for that Like? how long ago was this? Cause I don't remember this They first announced it and then, like it was a while afterwards because they announced it with like just a screenshot or like a like a key art kind of, where it was just golem And people are like, why do we need that? And then there was like a teaser trailer that made it look like a stealth game.
Speaker 2: Wasn't that like at E3?
Speaker 1: I think it was, but this was going. This is going back a couple of years, and then there was like a full trailer and it. You know it didn't look good. Such a technical mess I was, i knew immediately five minutes in watching someone play this. I'm like there's not a chance in hell I would touch this. The amount of just the character snapping on jumping with golem you know funny. It's. it's ridiculous And you know it's funny because it's.
Speaker 1: sometimes the game does not look bad Like visually it's got a it's got an interesting look to it, but sometimes it looks God awful. Well, what's fucked up is like golems character model looks atrocious It does.
Speaker 2: It looks awful. He looks actually terrible.
Speaker 1: He, i was thinking to myself. He kind of looks like a teenage golem going through like the heart of his acne life. Yeah, like.
Speaker 2: I thought it was going to be. Yeah, yeah, exactly Like this is young golem, it's got to be.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, it's, it's prequel, right.
Speaker 2: Well, that wouldn't.
Speaker 1: But that wouldn't make sense because golem was already like an adult when he found the ring and then became golem over time. Like there was never a young golem, He was swiggle, That's your. That's not like golem was born a little golem baby, He was a hobbit. Just imagine little golem toddler. Oh no.
Speaker 2: Actual, like terrifying gremlin was running around in diapers.
Speaker 1: Dude.
Speaker 2: Oh shit.
Speaker 1: I wanted to find the. The developers actually tweeted out like basically saying guys, i'm so sorry that our game is shit, like that's basically that, like no, that's like, that's pretty, that's straightforward.
Speaker 3: It was pretty straightforward Here.
Speaker 1: I'll actually, if I could find here. This is their press release. It's giving me crazy cyberpunk vibes, by the way. Dear players, we would like to sincerely apologize for the underwhelming experience many of you have had with Lord of the Rings golem. Upon its release, we acknowledge and deeply regret that the game did not meet the expectations we set for ourselves or for our dedicated community. Please accept our sincere apologies for any disappointment this may have caused. It just goes on to say that you know it's. We're passionate Lord of the Rings fans and we we've tried to tell a compelling story and we fucked up. So we're going to work to fix it. And again they apologize again at the end of it and they're going to try and make it right. I don't know how you make it right.
Speaker 2: I don't think you can at that point, so I kind of game there. You can't change how it plays out.
Speaker 1: I kind of feel bad because these guys uh, they Dalek entertainment, i think, is how you pronounce it Um, they made a series of games uh, the Duponia games that I actually like, really love. They're like, oh yeah, like 2D point, yeah, like 2D point and click adventure games, and a lot of, a lot of the other stuff that they've done is like 2D graphic adventure stuff. So I'm wondering if this was just out of their league. Well, it's kind of the opposite of what happened to the people who made Hogwarts legacy, because, you know, not that they made 2D point and click games, but, um, port key games wasn't making big triple A titles before And uh, true, but port, i think you're off on that, because Hogwarts legacy, port key games, is just like the conglomerate. Uh, hogwarts legacy was made by Avalanche, oh, and they made, uh, like other uh licensed games in the past.
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 1: Port key. Port key games was just a thing that Warner Brothers created. That's like um for it's like an umbrella that all of the Harry Potter and wizarding world games are being released under. Oh, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, i'm sorry, i'm an idiot, but we already knew that, god, i'm watching the trailer for this game and gollum.
Speaker 1: He really, he really does look like a pre, like a pubescent fucking version of gollum. Yeah, but yeah, we're sitting at 36 on Metacritic right now. When I looked at it, when I put it in the on Trello on our cards, um, it was at 40.
Speaker 3: So it's already dropped 10% in just a few hours.
Speaker 2: You know what sucks, man? Cause I remember seeing it, uh like as a trailer at E3 and, like you could see, like the Twitch chat was like what the fuck And I was like maybe it'll be good. You know, i like.
Speaker 1: I was the same way I was. I was cautiously optimistic. I'm like sure you can do something interesting with with you know gollum before cause it takes place eight years before uh, fellowship. So it's like okay, you could, you could do something, cause what was gollum up to Right?
Speaker 2: Funny little guy.
Speaker 1: He was spider crawling on walls. That's what he was doing.
Speaker 2: Jumping really high.
Speaker 1: Oh my God, the person that was watching them play earlier. They're stuck on this part for a solid 20 minutes because they could cause gollum couldn't fucking jump. He would either jump full blast or just not at all to this ledge that was four feet in front of him. Let's give me, like Sonic, 06 vibes. Oh my.
Speaker 2: God.
Speaker 1: Oh no, now I have this whole like the. The characters were just saying wine And so, like I have this character in my head just stuck saying wine, just in my head, and so you die. I'm just imagining I'm just imagining the poor bastard who got paid to play this game and is like this is so much fun.
Speaker 2: I swear I'm having so much fun. It's fantastic.
Speaker 1: I couldn't in my right mind do that.
Speaker 2: I could, never, i could never, Neither could I Trust me, i'd get sued so fast Yeah. Dude, i ended up cursing at the game by accident Like halfway through. I'd be like shit.
Speaker 1: Well, i, you know, whatever. But yeah, so you know, i guess it was one way to, you know, make a new Lord of the Rings game. It just didn't really work, did it? They should have just made a 2D point and click adventure. It would have been way better. Yeah, yeah, and then golem could actually look like a little spider chiming across little. Anyways, yeah Right, has there ever like not, i'm not saying that all of the Lord of the Rings games are good or mid, but have any of them actually been like bad? bad? Yeah, really, i'm trying to think of one, because I know like them well, outside of the movie, ones outside of the ones just outside of.
Speaker 1: Outside of though, because you know inherently, i think, those are always you know well the two towers was actually really good. What was that? That fellowship sucked, hobbit sucked.
Speaker 2: What was that one Hogwarts game where, like the camera angle, looked like CCTV footage? Hogwarts Oh, not Hogwarts, sorry, hobbit.
Speaker 1: There's a hobbit, Like there was a well, like five nights of fringes.
Speaker 2: What's the name of that franchise? I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: Are you talking Wait?
Speaker 2: wait, lord of the Rings right.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: There was a game that looked like you played as Gandalf and like the camera angle would look like CCTV footage. No idea, really weird. It was like swapping around, for like each scene you cross over Huh, i have no idea And you play as like a Gandalf and he's like running around with like his army.
Speaker 1: What was the RTS game that they made There?
Speaker 2: were a couple, but um there was a third age.
Speaker 1: third age No, third age was on a turn base. I'm thinking of way back. This would have been probably like 2000 and 30.
Speaker 2: Well, third, age.
Speaker 1: Yes, third age was way back Third age was 2004. Battle for Middle Earth. Yeah, those games are all right, oh is it Lord of the Rings tactic.
Speaker 2: I got no clue.
Speaker 1: Or maybe conquest, i don't know, i'm PSP.
Speaker 2: No, it wasn't Middle Earth. I'm looking at that now. We're just because, like you, would actually play as Gandalf and like I don't know how to explain it, I just remember seeing like little clips of it and it was very funny because the person streaming at the time was like it looks like CCTV footage and I thought it was hilarious.
Speaker 1: Fair enough? Yeah, I don't know, There's been. there's been a lot of good Lord of the Rings games, to be fair, but Or, you know, Middle Earth games. It's made that whole time period. The whole lore of Lord of the Rings really does make for a good idea, basis for a game.
Speaker 1: If you're ever like wanting to play a good co-op like action RPG. Lord of the Rings, war in the North is like one of my favorite fucking games of all time, but it's only, it's only multiplayer on console. For some reason, on PC you got to play single player with both friends. There's a Lego Lord of the Rings. Of course, there's a Lego everything. Yeah, i think there was a Lego Hobbit as well.
Speaker 2: So Oh, it was Lord of the Rings. The two towers.
Speaker 1: Oh, the two towers is great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's my favorite one And the carrying looks like.
Speaker 1: CCTV footage. I mean maybe for like one of the missions. I can. I can maybe think of what you're talking about, but I don't know. You kids are just expected too much out of your Lord of the Rings games from 2004. On the game Carl Carl Urban was in Lord of the Rings Um maybe Carl Urban?
Speaker 2: that makes sense. Yeah, i'd imagine.
Speaker 1: That's the. that's the guy. Yeah, I think he was In the boys. What's his character's name?
Speaker 2: Just, talking about it before.
Speaker 3: He's yeah, he's like the Billy Butcher.
Speaker 2: Billy Butcher. Billy Butcher, how did I forget that? I love that.
Speaker 1: I just know that he's dread, but yeah, he was, he was humor.
Speaker 2: Humor.
Speaker 1: Oh, because he was blonde. Holy shit, he looks so much different. Like, now that I'm, now that I'm seeing him, i could, i could see it, but yeah, yeah, he was, he was blonde. Dude nothing about this game looks like so weird looking. It is weird All right.
Speaker 3: Sorry, this is great for radio?
Speaker 1: Nothing, nothing. I don't see any CCT. When you were saying that, Dom, I swear to God, I thought you were trying to give like five nights of Friday's like a five nights at Freddy's version of Lord of the. Rings. Like you gotta, you gotta close the door, slip the Rook. I can't come in.
Speaker 3: I'd play that shit.
Speaker 1: Oh God, I can't man. It's so bad.
Speaker 3: Get on it.
Speaker 1: Middle earth games. You know, i mentioned, i mentioned PSP, yeah, and did you know that Sony PlayStation is making a new PSP? Yeah, dude, it's a new portable console that they're making. Yeah, it's, it's whoa, there was, there was a PlayStation showcase and we'll get to the PlayStation portable device that they have coming. But let's, dominic, did you happen to watch the showcase at all?
Speaker 2: Hell. No, oh fuck, i don't like PlayStation. man, i can't Dude what a fucking hater Start transitioning probably.
Speaker 1: I was going to say, like, like we, i forget. I always forget that we have a child on the show who, like, still has an allegiance to councils.
Speaker 2: No, I, don't have like an allegiance at all. I wouldn't say that at all. I just I'd never liked PlayStation games like that. I like I would, i would play PlayStation games like I play all the God of War games if I could, but like I wouldn't say I'm Dedicated to like a place like Xbox games at all. Only game I'd be dedicated to like Gears War. That shit fell off.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, kind of all, to be fair, like I Can't think of like an Xbox Exclusive franchise that's like killing it these days, yeah, everything's not it.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean money. Why is?
Speaker 1: the Forza.
Speaker 2: Forza, sure, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I'll give it for you.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna offend every Forza fan and say that you're all boring. The game's been the same since it first came out.
Speaker 1: I will say yeah, i will say no. I says Forza Horizon 3 was like the last big jump, and then four and five and At least, i only play the horizon, so that's honestly, there's so many better racing games. I was gonna say you're gonna hate me down because I don't even like the horizon one. I prefer the motorsports version of the game.
Speaker 2: Which is fair. Yeah, that seems more fun. I.
Speaker 1: Will say I fucking love the new Gran Turismo on ps5 just because I can play in VR and that shit's dope.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you want to play like a driving game, play like burnout paradise or something.
Speaker 1: Or get a real car come?
Speaker 2: on that too.
Speaker 1: It's crazy, and the people yeah, do you guys remember when, like rock band and guitar hero out and they were just like, why don't you just play real guitar? That's what I'm gonna say to you guys. Like, stop playing your racing games, just get a real car.
Speaker 2: That's your own car around super.
Speaker 1: That gets you yeah, exactly, let's go buy a race car, you know. But they, during that showcase, speaking of Gran Turismo, they're making a fucking Gran Turismo movie. Yeah, they've, that's been in the works forever. Well, and it's kind of cool because of the whole premise of people, you know, playing, playing the game, learning the courses, like if you play that shit with a wheel, like it's not exactly driving, but like it's actually like Dude have you seen those setups? Oh, dude Yeah it's, it's pretty fucking close.
Speaker 2: It's insane like reminds me of that Mario Kart arcade machine.
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, what about?
Speaker 1: cruising exotic, i mean.
Speaker 2: Initial.
Speaker 1: D, we got to go back to initial D. What's initial D? Oh, that, that was an arcade game. Yeah, way back in the day, and then I think there was an anime too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there is Well that's a lot of iconic music, Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm lame but, initial D was great, because they give you like a little card, like a little, like a little credit card Almost yeah and then you would, you would put it in on every initial D Game you went to and it would like carry over like your time. Did cruising, do that yeah, they did it with just a pin number, but yeah, but it only worked out, yeah, no, initial.
Speaker 1: D. You had a fucking card you put in your wallet and your little velcro wallet when you were a little kid, going to a Lens Castle.
Speaker 2: Okay, No bulldozer, that's pretty legit.
Speaker 1: It's like having a little driver's license when you're an eight.
Speaker 2: Exactly that's what it was. That's so cool dude. Yeah, the Mario Kart machine was the first time ever did one of those racing like arcade games.
Speaker 1: Arcades didn't exist when you were a kid, really.
Speaker 2: There was still like like Dave and Buster's and stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but, yeah, but like back in our day. There was like arcades back in my day. We got the one over at the at the mall over here round one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's basically. Well, there's yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got a game there where it's a bunch of anime titties and my son was playing it. I made a snapchat. It was funny. Anyways, great father, father of the year. Happy father's day, by the way, happy father's day.
Speaker 2: It's coming up. I got it coming up.
Speaker 1: I got a couple weeks for that. But yeah, no, there was a lot of stuff that they announced It. To be honest, actually I thought it was more of a. It was kind of underwhelming, except for a few things that I thought were I Got super excited for. So what really stood out for you outside of going to like the big three? Was there anything else that kind of stood out for you?
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: I mean, marathon was interesting. That bungee is bringing back marathon Yeah. I don't know what that is. All I know is the soundtrack to the trailer was pissing me off. Marathon was so like. Do you remember in Halo, like the first, i want to say the first three halos referenced it. But like there were those terminals, those hidden terminals with like the lore Okay, that was essentially telling the story of marathon. Marathons meant to be like a precursor to Halo. It was bungee's.
Speaker 1: Yeah it kind of looked like doom. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was one of their first few games and People really like marathon. I never played them Because I'm a boomer, but I'm not that boomer, hmm and I'm four years old when that game came out. Well you're three years old. Wow but um but uh, they, they're bringing back marathon, but they're just making it a Multiplayer extraction shooter, so extraction shooters are fine.
Speaker 1: But If it well, i guess there's not even really a, but it's a, it's. If it's a, if it's a looter shooter, grind it up fest, i'm gonna fucking hate it. And if that, well, my, my problem is like I don't know why you make it marathon. Just make it a destiny spin-off or something like Marathon. Like we are living in an age right now where boomershooters are like a legitimate genre, like I on storm is fucking fantastic. There's another one, i don't remember what it's called, bullet something I think. But uh, and and warhammer just released a boomer shooter. So it's like I don't know why you'd be like, all right, we're bringing back marathon and instead of like making an old school, you know, follow up to marathon, we're instead just gonna use the name in something completely different, and probably because it's a reboot too.
Speaker 1: So it's like The fuck knows I mean you know, yeah, but that you know they got. They got their Blake slate, Who knows it'll get. To be honest, i haven't hated anything that bungee has done. I mean so.
Speaker 3: I'm with you.
Speaker 1: Hello, though. So I, yes, i don't like destiny, but I think those games are fun. I just don't like grind them up. Looter shooters I'm with you. Like I, i put so much time into destiny and then taken king, but like destiny to never grip me. But I don't hate it, like you said right.
Speaker 2: Yeah cuz the game plays fun. But there's gonna be PlayStation pods. What It's gonna be PlayStation pod, oh the headphones. What is that gonna be like? You think you can use it with your phone.
Speaker 3: Probably because there are other other headsets Yeah, that's their other headsets are Bluetooth, so why not?
Speaker 1: They, i think they even mentioned in the in the press, or maybe I read it somewhere, but it's gonna be simultaneous Bluetooth So you could have it on your controller and your phone. What, yeah, like that's? might these do that? Oh?
Speaker 2: Mine. I never had something that could do that.
Speaker 1: It's, it's a nice feature. Yeah, it's, sony makes. Sony makes great headphones too. Yeah, i'm like, yeah, my, yeah, my daily drivers are these Sony headphones that are were meant for PlayStation, but I use my, my PC. This podcast, sponsored by Sony, by the way, i'm well, i'm not even gonna get into it. Sony's a great company. I've worked with them. I will, full, i will, i will Don't get yourself. No, I, i'm not getting in trouble. I'm saying I am fully disclosing that. I've worked with Sony in the past and they were a delight to work with Fantastic.
Speaker 2: Great, i just don't, you know.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say anything further than that Regarding any other company that I've worked with, but I worked with Sony and they were a pleasure. Okay, there was. There was one game outside of the big three, though that I thought looked kind of cool. Mm-hmm It was. It was a. It was a samurai game, okay, so it wasn't Katz quest, pirates of the Peribian, it was not that. No, no. But you know what, though? I'm a fucking sucker for those art styles where it's that like isometric kind of like mixture of, you know, drawing with 3d animation, like Not say, i mean, i won't play it, but You should play Katz, katz quest. It's great, maybe I will, maybe, maybe I will. What the fuck? phantom blade zero. I Think that's what it was. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, that was a Square Enix one, right? Yeah, um, yeah, wasn't it? Yes, hold on, let me make sure that that was the game I'm thinking of. Yeah, that was it.
Speaker 3: That game, square Enix.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was Square Enix, and That game actually looks super fun. I wish I could Show it to on audio if that was a thing, but just imagine it's a samurai. That that wasn't Square Enix, no, wasn't it? No, cruel man studio. Oh, hmm, i just assumed you were right. Now Square Enix had some other game. They showed up My promise, all the guy, the game with the fucking bubbles and the foam that was Square Enix I was way off.
Speaker 1: I was way off. Yeah, that was the fucking split tune mixed with overwatch game was square Bubbles, oh god, as if we needed more Splatoon in this fucked up world we live in. No, but phantom played zero. It does look interesting. My only problem is like it's coming after Neo Sekiro. Um, what goes to Tsushima? like we've had all of these you know samurai Games in this past couple years and oh, it's like hold on guys. What about us?
Speaker 3: Right, you know but it looks.
Speaker 1: Their gameplay does look different enough. It's more of a Like I don't know how to explain it the combat looks faster and a lot more like Twitch react well, not even twitch.
Speaker 2: It's all it's all Dark Souls.
Speaker 1: To me these days It looks so. You know how the Batman games they like redefined the fighting like genre, how it's just button presses to block and whatever, and it's just really fast. This is what that reminds me of, but with sword gameplay. I'd be interested in that. Yeah, that might be, that's what it kind of looks like and I and I actually I've not, i have not played Sekiro or what was the other one.
Speaker 3: Go so Tsushima.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, both of which I want to play some point, i just You know I didn't play second.
Speaker 2: Another Assassin's Creed game coming.
Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody cares about that.
Speaker 2: You know what the pressing that is it looks.
Speaker 1: It looks so like uninteresting to like. It looks like every other Assassin's Creed game.
Speaker 2: You know what's funny already hear the voice actors. I can already hear it.
Speaker 1: I was looking at that. I'm like, oh, they're remaking the first Assassin's Creed game.
Speaker 3: That's what I thought. I thought it was.
Speaker 1: I thought it was a remake. Yeah, but it's not. Yeah. Well, what happened to what they were doing? like they did like the colonial American one, they did the fucking pirate one. Like they were doing all these interesting things. I don't know if they were good, but they were at least trying to branch out like flag, i just that everybody loves black flag like flag was amazing. I really want to play that game. It's a fucking love pirates You haven't put yo you will, i've never, played.
Speaker 1: I've never played in a Assassin's Creed of that game, never. I Played about, i think, like five missions of the first game And I was like this is just the same fucking thing over and over again. I'm never touching this again.
Speaker 2: And then I never did black flag will make you love Like, it'll make you hopeful. But then you remember the other games and then you get all sad.
Speaker 1: I'll just play it as standalone, you know, just, i'll just. Well, one day I got to play like a lot of these games for the fucking show. Funny story I started suggestive gaming with my buddy, chris you know, and he was like, yeah, i love Assassin's Creed, i'll play through all the Assassin's Creed games for the show. I think he made it. He made it through a lot of them, but like six, six of them, i think, and then he quit, like not just Assassin's Creed, he quit the show. That was gonna be you playing Kingdom Hearts.
Speaker 1: Oh, I got close SG almost just ended with with Kingdom Hearts. Yeah, it got closer with Far Cry.
Speaker 2: Really Hey, that's another.
Speaker 1: Ubisoft game. Yeah, i was drinking a lot, though.
Speaker 2: You've soft loves to get like talented voice actors than everyone else or some dude they've found off the street.
Speaker 1: It's just the Ubisoft formula. It just doesn't work. It's not anymore. It doesn't Warring, i just well, and that's what? What's there? What's their pirate game that's coming out blood and blood and sand. So it's called.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it could be blood and bones. I think something like that. I Know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Yeah, i, i If.
Speaker 3: I didn't skull and bones.
Speaker 1: I didn't play the beta. Um, and I made it came out. Well, there was a closed beta that if, if you played, there was a non-disclosure agreement. So if you played it, you couldn't talk about it. So I didn't play it. But if I did, i'd imagine that it was kind of interesting and It had a unique Kind of gameplay loop that I would have liked. But it wasn't very long had I played it. But I didn't play it. But if I did, that's probably what I would think about it. Well, i'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I'm interested then, yeah, i know it sucks, But I'm interested in playing it when it when it actually comes out. I have it pre-ordered. Interesting because I'm an idiot.
Speaker 2: I want to try it out. That seems like a good time.
Speaker 1: It was interesting because, like, if I would have played it, i think you start off like on a little raft and then you got to like Actually build it into a bigger boat and then you can go out into the open seas, you know. So there's an interesting like intro there.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 1: But, and it's all I'm. It's an MMO. I believe I would know if I played it, but I didn't, so I don't know. Interesting yeah, that's a fun. I don't know if that games ever gonna come out, though because, That beta was like a year ago now, i think was it wow. Wow it was a really long time ago. Suddenly I'm getting the strange urge to play Valheim and build a boat.
Speaker 2: I Don't know why didn't that game lose content? I don't think so you got boring after a while.
Speaker 1: No, they've been updating it quite a bit. Do for a small five five-person team studio.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like they're the one that look like a ps2 game Yeah, but the lighting was good.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, but yeah, i like the art style. I'm just, i'm not saying that Directorily yeah, it was. It was a very much a low-poly, yeah, pixel style. I never. I never played it, but I think I think I did see it now. It was like that's a cool game pass, a cool look it, it is a game pass, it's actually it's actually.
Speaker 3: You got to give Microsoft money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, who would do that? Well, i guess we can. We can Talk about the last couple of things. I just want to say real quick that hell divers too was revealed, and that game looks like butt cheeks actually.
Speaker 2: Was hell divers one good.
Speaker 1: I don't, i'd Never heard of or played it, but the second. I heard of it Did not look of any interest to me, Yeah. I heard the name hell divers, but I never, i Know nothing about never heard they tried. They tried well, with their trailer. They tried the whole quirky like hi, oh, you're gonna die, show, get sure. Oh, that's what. Yeah, that's what that was. That was like the info, like the infomercial, like recruitment video thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it was so easy and it just did that, edgy humor thing like that If it's done right, but like it was not done right and it just I'm like, okay, I'm not interested in that, it was pretty cringe, as the kids say. the kids still say cringe, dom. Kind of cool I'm still gonna say my daughter says that should go. Oh, dad cringe, okay, good. I hear that at least I trust his daughter, dom, cuz she's younger so yeah.
Speaker 1: I would too. You're hitting old man territory. I'm like getting there. I. One of the things I think I got most excited for during that whole showcase was the Alan Wake 2 trailer. Of course, it looked pretty good. It wasn't. It didn't look amazing, but it looked pretty good. But we got a release date for that too October 17th. Yep, and I'm a big lover of the first game. I know, josh, you are as well Well post. I remember when that game first came out and we were both gushing over it. That's one of the few games over the years that we both played and we're just like holy shit, this game is fucking awesome.
Speaker 2: We both love that game when it came out Well and I was.
Speaker 1: You know, facebook gives you memories. You can look back on just two days ago. It must have released in like a May it did, but uh, i made a status about like it was something. Again, here we go cringe territory. But I said something along the lines of like I said, hey guys, if you want your girls to watch you play video games, just get Alan Wake, because my wife loves this game And she won't stop watching me play it.
Speaker 1: No, it wasn't that bad, but it was. It was a yeah, i mean it's a cinematic game, so it you know it's. It's a good spectator game, like for somebody else to watch for sure, yep, so we got it. Oh man, i'm so excited, me too, and I like the um, the addition of now you play as an FBI agent as well as Alan Wake. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So, I always liked that, starting from from you know, like Metal Gear Solid 2, where you get to see the story from You know two different points of view. Yeah, like the last of us, part two, when you get to play, is I like that game? I didn't hate that game.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say I like that game. No, there's a lot of people that hated it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah for dumb reasons. Yeah, I didn't hate it.
Speaker 2: Um, i know this wasn't like included on that list, but uh, mortal Kombat one or 12 or one it's coming out. I don't know if you guys seen a trailer about that Mortal Kombat or not.
Speaker 1: Was it Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter?
Speaker 2: I know they they had a street fighter. Well, street fighter was was there Yeah. Mortal Kombat was not shown off.
Speaker 1: No, mortal Kombat's like coming out very, very, very soon. It's coming out in September.
Speaker 2: It's practically edging now. Yeah, it's, they were. They did some trailers about it, like a week or two ago.
Speaker 1: Yeah, people have asked me over the years To make a Mortal Kombat story video and my response is always the same Get fucked, i'm not playing those fucking games. That sounds terrifying.
Speaker 2: There's So many like weird ones in there.
Speaker 3: No, well, just make, make rams, make rams play capture footage for you. He, he's, he loves him, does he like Mortal Kombat, i can do nine.
Speaker 2: I'm actually making an assumption there um.
Speaker 1: So I've never liked the Mortal Kombat, i just It's. It's the memes like to get over here, you know, and the voice lines over the years.
Speaker 2: It's this new game. They finally reset the timeline for like the 50th time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they did that with fucking nine.
Speaker 2: Everyone is like giving them praise for it And I just don't understand it. It's kind of like obnoxious at this point. It's like they did such a good job resetting the timeline. It's like, yeah, when you just say fuck it, throw it away, it, it works.
Speaker 1: They've done that like eight fucking times. It's so annoying. Star Wars did kind of do that, did it do it to be fair when disney bought it? and they're just like All right, just the movies. Everything else can get fucked, yeah, but like No, that's not what I meant.
Speaker 2: Um, i mean it's close, yeah, I mean, yeah, you're not wrong, but I'm hoping, if this new Mortal Kombat comes out, they don't dive into that fucking time realm shit again. I'm sure they will. Just I hope they don't, because I'll be really boring.
Speaker 1: Every Mortal Kombat's boring Nine was fun. Was nine the one that would uh hold on post talk vamp. Hi, my name. My name is uh, today's podcast is yeah.
Speaker 1: Nine is the one I'm thinking of, mortal Kombat nine. Um made me write nether realm a letter actually, i'm not joking, not like a physical letter. I wrote him an email. I yeah, well, what was it about? how poorly designed that fucking game was, really, yes, it was a piece of shit. At least the like the single player, like you know, campaign tournament thing was horrible dude. So Like when you make a bad game In yeah bet you know game dev story or uh, what's the other one. Like when people actually write the studio letters.
Speaker 2: Yeah, i can't remember. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah that was me. Yeah, I did that People actually do that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did. That was the only time I've ever done it. I thought I thought people just complained on twitter. Well, this was before. Twitter was big, this was yeah, this was in like 2011.
Speaker 2: That's my favorite Mortal Kombat, by the way. I'm kind of sad.
Speaker 1: I have a t-shirt Like with with it on it, because I worked at it in an electronics department and we'd randomly get t-shirts that I would steal. Do you? do you remember the referee? right? You're in a line, mister. Yes, of course. I'm sorry, that's that's such an obscure reference that no one will ever get, and I'm sorry, nope for all of you, but uh. So Sony also introduced their new handheld system.
Speaker 3: Yes, project Q.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't look like a Q, though. Oh, i don't know why it's called project Q I'm mildly disappointed and whenever I see it I think it's person Q questionable.
Speaker 1: I don't know, i'll buy one. It's a streaming machine. Yeah, it's kind of stupid because, um, so they, i don't know if I have my backbone, andy, shit, i don't um, but Sony released a backbone which is like one of those Controllers that you can clip onto your phone and then there's an app for android or ios to stream from your ps5. So essentially all this project Q is is two halves of a dual shock, like stapled onto the side of a tablet, like a small tablet. So it's essentially just a phone with a backbone that can only stream From your ps5, like from your ps, and that's. That's the The weird thing, which actually I think is a benefit. Like it's, it both sucks, but it could be a benefit too, because local network data transfer is going to be a lot quicker than pulling something from.
Speaker 2: You know a data center to.
Speaker 1: Supposedly, this will also work Remotely. Well, like this is all you're going to be able to take this on the go but, but from your own PlayStation, like your place corrects, i'm assuming, has to be like we don't know all the specifics. But I'm assuming it has no, no no, because that's exactly how the, that's exactly how the mobile one works Is your. Your PlayStation has to be at least on standby, or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah and Yeah so I don't, i don't and I don't know if there's going to be an additional cost per month for, like, the data plan. If you want to take it out, oh yeah, what the fuck? I don't. That's, that's. What's most confusing to me Is, like, how is this thing going to work remotely?
Speaker 2: Unless you have to just connect to wi-fi stages.
Speaker 1: It's not even like announced fully, it's just project.
Speaker 2: Q.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, i think they're kind of trying to get something out before Microsoft, because Microsoft's been working on a very similar thing.
Speaker 1: According to well and my, to be fair from Microsoft, like that makes way more sense because of game pass. Like I can stream any game from a data center Right, as opposed to having to do it from my house. Because what if your internet, like if your upload speeds, suck, like I used to have? I used to have cable internet with one meg up. That's disgusting, that's what I'm saying. That would suck, like now I got fiber with two gig up. So you know, you know, whatever, that's just me, but um, but a lot of folks don't have that opportunity. So it's like I don't know, i don't, i don't necessarily get it. Look, the only benefit I see to it over a backbone or using your own fucking phone is you get the dual shock.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you get the you know you get the adaptive triggers and all that yeah.
Speaker 1: Like literally the only well and like the only use I see to. This is literally what the Wii U did, where it's like alright, i can play in my bed and my wife can watch something on TV while I play my video games. Like that's like the only fucking like use case. I see that with your phone anyways, that's true, but that the screen's bigger to be fair, and like you said, you get the full controller experience.
Speaker 1: that well Yeah, but I Just say I just like, unless it's, unless it's insanely cheap, like under $200, that's. I agree with you. This thing is not going to go anywhere. I I Wish they just made a PSP, i don't know, and you'd think that Sony would, and I guess, like Nintendo, is dominating the Mobile console market, or portable console market.
Speaker 2: I should say yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like I, with the Steam Deck and other things like that entering, like I don't see why Sony isn't like alright, let's at least make something that plays you know, ps4 competition in the space, i just I can't.
Speaker 2: But they swandered the Vita to be fair. Yeah, like the.
Speaker 1: Vita was a great machine and they didn't do anything with it, so I Guess they're just not interested.
Speaker 1: It's just such a weird choice to make this streaming thing. I Swear to God, i'm like they just wanted to announce something, because in two weeks, microsoft is gonna probably announce their fucking streaming device that they've been working on, and I feel like that They just felt like they had to get it out ahead. Maybe, yeah, maybe, cuz like it feels half-baked, like this announcement, especially like it like what the fuck is this thing? They're not even really telling us. So, yeah, maybe you're right. Like they're just like, hey, we're making this thing, and then when Microsoft comes out, we're like, oh, we did it first. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: It's just funny I would. I'm not gonna buy either of them. There's no. I Can't there's how, dude, i can't the latency dude, i'm just joking. I probably I might the ps5 one, like I said, just for the sole fact of you know. Alright, i could play it in bed, but Like that's about it. I. But I would wait for, like, a sale on that. I'll get it like I got my PlayStation TV. Do you remember those? No, it was just a Vita that you plugged into your TV instead really and I got mine, play well, it was like I down here but I'd have to find it in my, in my rats nest.
Speaker 1: But, um, yeah, it was just a little box that was like the internals of a Vita, with an HDMI port. You just plugged it into your TV and you connected a ps4 controller and, um, it was called the PlayStation TV and I bought one when they were $25.
Speaker 3: Hey man so it was like bucks. What do you?
Speaker 1: know why not, bro, yep, yep, and I've used it for capturing for the show. So you know, came in handy there. I see and you probably made. I don't know 25 dollars off of whatever absolutely.
Speaker 3: I made my money back on that purchase, but No, it's a it's.
Speaker 1: It's one of those things where Sony does these weird fucking things. They did it with the place or the PSP too. They made the PSP go. Do you remember that? It was the? one that like Yeah, i, i had the original and that was it, unfortunately. But even the original was a beautiful fucking machine, that dude. The PSP, i still say, is the best portable console ever made. Yeah, fuck, yeah, dude.
Speaker 2: Just to play everything San Andreas on a PSP. No, you didn't wait. Which one was it? Oh?
Speaker 1: It would have been wrong.
Speaker 2: Well, i forgot what the handheld was, but had GTA San Andreas on it.
Speaker 1: No, it didn't.
Speaker 2: I mean for I.
Speaker 3: Know tablet like on the.
Speaker 2: Google play? yeah, no, not like a tablet.
Speaker 1: No, so Liberty City stories and vice city stories came out on PSP, so you might be thinking of those.
Speaker 2: No, it was San Andreas. I well fight, all right. Well, hold on, i don't think cuz the Vita.
Speaker 1: You could hack a Vita and play San Andreas on it, but it didn't release officially.
Speaker 2: I've done. Might have been it. It wasn't mine.
Speaker 1: I know that yeah, so maybe, maybe somebody installed San Andreas on a Vita and you played it. It was the Android version. That was the cool thing about the Vita is there was a huge modding Community that ported a bunch of Android games to the Vita, and one of them was the Android port of San Andreas.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just GTA San Andreas on the PSP port and stuff.
Speaker 1: Oh, On the PSP, i might have been.
Speaker 2: That's some bullshit, i don't know. I remember playing on a handheld, though, and it was San Andreas and had like the logo in the back that said like Yes, something, alright well my uncle worked for Nintendo and he told me that I could.
Speaker 1: I could find me, you under the truck behind the SSN. This sounds like to me it sounds like some I. Don't know there was. There is something so cool though back in the day, like that would have been like 2006 or 7, i think, probably 2007, i was gonna say I think I got my. PSP in 2005. 2005, maybe, Even before that? Yeah, I came out in 2005. I'm a fucking genius. What the fuck? March 24th 2005? I just remember buying the UMD movies and yeah and yeah, being stupid dude.
Speaker 1: My favorite, my favorite thing ever was when the PSP was first jailbroken and in order to play like emulators and stuff, you had to have two SD cards and you had to swap them out at like the right time to trick the PlayStation into running on Sidecode. Yeah, it was crazy dude, it was Wild West.
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm gonna look like a psycho, yeah, but I'm looking at it and it was a PSP I played it on. I'm not lying about this, this is legit. I played GTA San Andreas on a PSP.
Speaker 1: No, I'm looking at it right now Like this is I'm looking at a video, but it's obviously fake.
Speaker 2: I. There's no way I could be like.
Speaker 1: My memory can't be that scrambled, because I remember it dude, unless you're playing, unless you're playing on a backbone Type thing on someone's phone or a tablet.
Speaker 2: It had the PSP logo on the back, though I was like a Goo Goo Gaga child at the time.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, maybe you're good. What then it then?
Speaker 2: you don't remember, and it wasn't San Andreas, it was probably your stories, or no way was I know what CJ looked like.
Speaker 1: This is no, you're thinking of fucking vice-city stories. You're just thinking about just mixing up your African-American characters, because you play as you play, as Victor Vance.
Speaker 2: Victor, yeah, oh.
Speaker 1: Man all right, we're gonna pause the podcast here Looks this up and realizes Josh was right because he was like you know, i don't remember that guy, no. That was 16 or something.
Speaker 2: I should move on.
Speaker 1: Look, look. I'm very rarely insanely confident about something. I'm insanely confident that you did not play San Andreas on a PSP. There's no way.
Speaker 2: I don't know anymore. I feel like my whole life's a lie now.
Speaker 3: Vice-city stories if it was a PSP.
Speaker 1: If it was a PSP, it was vice-city stories. I'm fairly confident of that.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right.
Speaker 1: All right, he's like let's move on. All right, hold on.
Speaker 2: Let's leave it. All right, we're leaving it, but we're leaving it, we got homework.
Speaker 1: You got homework. Yeah, josh, josh, about your spider-man 2. I Haven't even watched it yet, oh, so, yeah, cuz, here's why. So I had to leave during the showcase and then I obviously knew that they were gonna end with it. And I'm debating on whether or not I want to watch any Trailers for spider-man 2, because I'm obviously gonna fucking buy and play it anyway. So I'm, i'm, i don't know if I'm gonna watch it or not. Okay, oh, i'm sure you've seen some things on it.
Speaker 3: I've seen. I've seen screenshots.
Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously He's in the symbiote suit. We knew that was coming. Yeah, i don't necessarily like how the symbiote suit looks in the screenshots I've seen, but it's like very goopy and veiny and Oh, i don't like it. It kind of reminds me of infamous When yeah, yeah, that's what it kind of reminds me of that's a good pull, yeah, that, although I mean, hey, i wish I liked spider-man more, because, god damn it, those games just look like so much fun. Yeah, i don't really like spider-man that much.
Speaker 2: I'm in the same boat. I don't. I don't get the hype around spider-man sometimes but the games are cool.
Speaker 1: Can't you smell the sarcasm oozing Like? I literally smelled his sarcasm coming through my computer.
Speaker 2: Oh, did I fall for a big trap.
Speaker 1: I mean it was is okay. I think he's taking his shirt off to grab everything. Oh, is he grabbing the guitar?
Speaker 2: He might I don't know, oh, did I mine.
Speaker 1: Josh is grabbing something for those of you who are only listening. He's in crisis mode. He's having a midlife crisis. It's not a minor.
Speaker 2: Sorry guys.
Speaker 1: I had to leave real quick, so I could. So I could quickly write a song about how much I don't like spider-man. I'm not in tune. Oh Dude, that thing is still sick to the stay pretty cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 1: Josh is a budding musician and rock star and you have a thing.
Speaker 2: I've heard him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's. He had a famous band and everything Was it. Was it famous? to me it was which one now broken twilight, or yeah, oh well, no, i think, well, i don't know. It's weird because I think both of them were. They both had their time Broken Twilight and Dondra's near yeah.
Speaker 3: That's some one of them had a better singer?
Speaker 1: I'll let you decide. I Just remember there is one time where there was a which was the time or was, maybe it was just one song or a band, but Sam was singing Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that was just a song we made me. That's just one song? Okay, yeah, i just, i just remember that.
Speaker 2: I don't remember.
Speaker 1: This is the fucking just name this episode inside Just just this is such an inside Conversation between you and I. yeah sorry, It's poor dumb.
Speaker 2: It was like fuck is Sam?
Speaker 1: What is a broken taillight? Who has a broken tail? Yeah, i'm sorry, guys, i'm sorry, but yeah, no, uh, spider-man. So I'm excited, i'll play it. It looks good. There, a man Was, was the whole. There was a clip of. I'm not gonna say it, i don't want to spoil it for you. So that was the Sony Showcase. Everybody, there was lot. Wait, there was one more. You missed one.
Speaker 3: What you missed, it one more. What you miss, like the.
Speaker 1: The biggest fucking announcement.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you did I. I, i didn't even see, and I know she missed it I.
Speaker 1: Wore a shirt specifically for this. You're looking at my shirt, but it's off screen.
Speaker 2: You always sees the top part he's definitely top.
Speaker 1: Oh, fuck the fucking matter.
Speaker 2: Metal Gear Solid 3 oh, delta, yeah Delta, metal Gear.
Speaker 1: Metal Gear Solid, delta, snake eater, yeah, and so That that hold, that Delta thing or what, i don't know a lot about it, but that's five. They're remaking five games, right, or a dimus? I miss you that, no, so they're remaking three. Okay, right, and then they're re-releasing the original versions of Metal Gear Solid 1, metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3. Okay so there's gonna be like an origins collection Which will also include Metal Gear 1 and 2 like the original games, so technically it's five games in the collection.
Speaker 1: Okay and then They're also remaking Metal Gear Solid 3. But the interesting thing is that collection I just talked about is volume one, which, if you release a volume one, that implies there's going to be a volume two. Okay so a lot of folks are wondering what games are gonna be included in volume two And if that will include Metal Gear Solid 4, which is the only Metal Gear game that was never released outside of its original council, which was the ps3.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 1: Hmm, so I will be very excited if we actually get a Metal Gear Solid 4 port. I Didn't. I thought I read somewhere, josh, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought, don't worry, i will, i Know you will. There, there was. Were they doing this all under Or without the direction of Hideo Kojima? Correct, because, yeah, he's out, he's out of Konami and he adds So they're remaking the game Without his direction.
Speaker 3: Does that?
Speaker 1: worry you or the general fan base of Metal Gear Solid? No so, and there's a couple reasons why one is They've already stated that they're not going to re-record any, any of the voice acting. They're not gonna change the story at all, so they're literally just reusing all of the original Dialogue and all of the original story.
Speaker 1: And they're doing the gameplay a bit, basically just updating the gameplay a little bit new graphics Probably a lot of the old code just making it look prettier. Yeah, and also, i have been interested in seeing a Metal Gear game without Kojima for forever, because Metal Gear Solid was supposed to be his last one, the first Metal Gear Solid, oh. And then he intended on handing it off every game, but either Konami wouldn't let him or The team were like we can't do it without you, please.
Speaker 1: Sure sure please lead the project. So for years he was trying to get out of like the Metal Gear Okay, prison, that he was in and do his own thing. And then he did his own thing and it was horrible. So I'm starting to doubt whether or not I actually ever liked Kojima. So, hell yeah, let somebody else try Metal Gear. You can't, you can't blame a guy for going out and doing something that he can.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but.
Speaker 1: I. I didn't like his his last three games. So well I I know.
Speaker 3: Two of those were Metal Gear games. Well, yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's training is one of them.
Speaker 2: Which man There's so many mixed reviews about that game.
Speaker 1: It's so weird because I Both hate it and enjoy it, but which is kind of I feel what he was going for, right. And see, that's like to me because, like I think I would super, i would really enjoy that game if it Didn't play how that game play, you know what?
Speaker 2: I mean, you think it's one of those games or like you can like come home or something and just turn it on. I just be like around and play depth training for a little bit.
Speaker 1: No, not so.
Speaker 2: I don't think so No really It's not like a chill game really.
Speaker 1: No, well, i mean no if you don't know what. Once the one, once the BT's show up Like I don't think so Yeah. Yeah, then it's. Then you're a little bit more on edge and it's I Mean you could, if in theory, just Explore and drive around.
Speaker 3: Yeah but then there's the pirates or whatever they.
Speaker 1: They are the bandits.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: I don't know it's. It's a shame. What was the other game that he's trying to do? that's not PT with Norman Reedus Death Stranding. I thought there was another game Death Stranding 2?. I mean Death Stranding 2. Oh no, DS2.
Speaker 2: Don't call it Death Stranding 2.
Speaker 3: It's DS2. Oh my bad.
Speaker 1: Okay, maybe that's what it was then. I'm sorry, forgive me. Probably, yeah, I know that he was working with Redis on PT but, I thought then they switched gears and were working on something else, which must be DS2. But yeah, i didn't like Death Stranding. I didn't like Metal Gear Solid 5 at all. I didn't like Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker at all. I didn't play Peace Walker at all. So I just wanted to take a moment earlier, unless, josh, you had another thing you wanted to say on Metal.
Speaker 3: Gear On the showcase? Yeah, or Metal Gear in general? Yeah, no.
Speaker 1: Okay, not that I could take it. Good, i'm ready to move on. Earlier in the show we talked about Murderous Muses, how we had Deveky on, we had Tim, david and Anna, anna, anna, anna, anna, anna. Anyways, anna Anna, it was Anna.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Nobody will get that one either, because they don't watch the pre-show, but they are our May game of the month. They are our May game of the month Murderous Muses. So you can win that game, or I open that up to any game in their collection, which is five games, Not four, Four, Five, Technically five. So you can enter that giveaway by going to bucketbitesgg and going to our game of the month tab or going to our link tree Four, four, four, yeah, i think yeah.
Speaker 1: Or you can go to our link tree page, linktree slash bucketbites. Scroll down somewhere near the bottom. We have a game of the month page. It opens up a linkio I'm sorry, a gleamio page And if you're listening to this episode live or on recording, i'm giving away our third and final code. The drawing will be next week while I'm away, but that third secret code is portrait P-O-R-T-R-A-I-T Portrait And you can enter that in the third secret code Section space. Whatever you want to call it. You can choose that game murder. Some uses bucketbites, a t-shirt or our next month's game of the month, which is going to be announced in a couple of weeks, seeing as we don't have a show next week. But more on that in a bit.
Speaker 2: So we can have, like the awkward Dom's solo show.
Speaker 1: I mean you guys could have a show together. if you really wanted to, hey man, i'd do it. If you guys wanted to, that's fine with me.
Speaker 1: Stay tuned, but also just real quick. I will again stress to listen to last week's episode with Deveky, because we talked a lot about their games. So if you're unfamiliar or you have no idea what we're talking about, i feel we gave a pretty good primer on the type of games they make and what you could expect. So, yeah, and if anybody can beat my new high score, which is now 1,200 and something we'll just say 1,200. If you can beat my high score, cheating Semi -score.
Speaker 1: I was 1605, so he's not cheating, uh-oh. Okay. So if you can beat my high score, you don't have to beat Josh's high score, but if you beat my high score. You should beat my high score, though, because that was my blind playthrough and I got 1605, and Post has tried multiple times. We went over this. My skills in deduction need some work. Okay, he would not be a good detective, this Ryan Post. I really want to play LA Noir now for some reason, but that's besides the point.
Speaker 2: You should play it in. VR.
Speaker 3: I have it in VR. I own it in.
Speaker 2: VR.
Speaker 1: I do, I'd watch it. But yeah, go back listen. Like I said we were talking about, we had a new bit that was really super fun, And if we ever get to a point someday and we keep doing that bit, I would love, love, love to hire an animator to like animate out the scenes. I think it'd be pretty funny. We're at that point now Post You, just pay money.
Speaker 2: The heroes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. So, speaking of that, if you guys are looking for an awesome mini ITX PC system, custom built, go check out Dark Fusion Systems. They make them. They're great. Josh builds on, not builds on them, but he he's recorded on them And they are our favorite. My fiance is playing on one right now, yeah, and what's she playing?
Speaker 1: I don't want to say I. I because, like I hear that, like some people have been emulating Tears of the Kingdom. Now, we would never do that, we would never do that. But I but I'd imagine like, if you could, you could play it in 4k, 60 frames per second.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Like the Dark Fusion build that I have. Yeah, so I don't know why I said it like that. That was pretty good. Thank you, um, but yeah, so you know, if she were playing that that's pro, it would probably be playing super smooth, gotcha.
Speaker 2: Yeah, way better than definitely doesn't.
Speaker 1: I know Linus, uh from Linus Tech Tips like openly like admitted to being like I bought the game. I'm going to emulate it. Dude, so did bike man. Like man went on Twitter and he's like. he's like playing tears in the kingdom at 4k, at 60 frames per second. Like, what are you doing? Don't do that Well, especially with a Nintendo game, because like they're so hard to press dude.
Speaker 2: They're crazy, Crazy dude.
Speaker 1: Who's bike man? What Bike man is one of my dearest, dearest. I don't want to call him a friend because I think he'll he'll. You know he might think I'm going too far with that, but back in the day, uh, i don't know if we've ever talked about this on the show, but a game ranks stole one of my videos. Uh, really, yeah, right, what Way back in the day, yeah, um, game ranks stole one of my videos and, uh, you know, when I was trying to signal boost, like, hey, you know, these fucking assholes stole this video.
Speaker 1: One of the people that picked up on it and really helped to kind of spread the word and get them to take accountability was a Twitch streamer named bike man And ever since, you know, i've chatted with him over the years, uh, just off and on, and um, he's, uh, he's also come to my aid on the other times. My, uh, my content has been stolen and he's just like a killer, fucking dude.

By the way, i'd like you guys to hold on hold, on hold on His, his arm, his arm. I've got to get some gauze and I'm going to, i'm going to wrap it back on.
Speaker 1: OK, ok next week or next time we record. hopefully he's back in full and full force, All right, here you are, here we go. That's a move to the other way, the other way, the way.
Speaker 2: There we go, jesus.
Speaker 1: Oh, this is reckless All right, all right, all right, we're good Soundbites, ladies and gentlemen, oh everyone's favorite effect insert here Oh oh, here, let me do it.
Speaker 3: Hold on.
Speaker 1: That was underwhelming. That was It's just like a group of like two or three people are just like yeah, good job, guys, It's appropriate Good job.
Speaker 2: It's appropriate, I mean you know, yeah, you're right.
Speaker 1: So we're going to be playing soundbites today. Josh was nice enough to put this together. We've got 15 sounds that are all video game soundtrack. You said, yeah, video game songs, like songs from video games. So all I need, all I need, is the franchise. You don't have to tell me like the specific game, so just give me the franchise. And I didn't do like one game per franchise, so there might be a couple, couple duplicates here. Maybe that's a hint, so so, so, so, yeah, first one to get it gets the point.
Speaker 2: All right, and because Josh is up by almost 20 points.
Speaker 1: I got it. You know, sometimes I got to take a take a seat and let you guys try to catch up, So I don't. Hopefully these are not too loud. Josh, I did listen to the first one. You piece of shit It was. I don't. I don't remember what it was at this point, but I had to lower it. So if it's too loud or too quiet, let me know. All right, ok, so here we go with the first sound bite. Sounds like Minecraft. What it is not Minecraft, dom, do you have a guess?
Speaker 2: I actually don't. I don't wait. Can I have one more game? Can I guess one more?
Speaker 1: No, no, you said Minecraft. You can. you can guess it, but you won't get a point. That's fine. It also sounds like satisfactory.
Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's not factory. No Donkey.
Speaker 1: Kong Country.
Speaker 3: That's like a country.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really good. Aquatic ambiance is like the greatest underwater song of all time. I tried to get stuff that that maybe Dom would know as well. So if you don't, i'm sorry, dom, it's OK.
Speaker 2: You know I'm feeling.
Speaker 1: I'm going to struggle to because I'm not good with this.
Speaker 2: We'll see All right, go All right.
Speaker 1: So nobody gets that point. Go ahead, all right, here we go. Number two I'm going to mark this down.
Speaker 2: Oh, can we guess whenever? Yeah yeah, shoot it out Yoshi's Island.

Speaker 1: Yep, fuck, all right, here we go. Number five out of 15. I put this one in there to test you. I'm going to guess I don't know because I've never played it, but I'm going to guess Star Fox, nope.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good guess.
Speaker 1: Um, by the way, this is the reason I put it in, where you just had to guess the franchise and not the particular game, because I felt like this song had an obscure, like a had like a theme that felt like the franchise. Do you want me to play it again, Dom?
Speaker 2: Yeah, please. Um, you know what? I'm just going to throw a guess out throw a guess out, man, i don't remember the name of the games, but it's not like a Captain Falcon game, is it? No, no, ok no, It's Castlevania.
Speaker 1: Symphony of the Night. Oh wow No but I felt like that song was such a Castlevania song. You know, I've you're going to hate me. I've never played a single Castlevania game. Dude, honestly, Symphony is the only Castlevania game I've played, but it's so good. I recommend everybody play that game. It is so fucking amazing. I seem to, if I remember right. I know a profe.

Yeah, Everyone there is all dressed up and shit and everyone's really nice And there's so many like cool things people make. Was this your first like your first convention?
Speaker 2: My first convention ever And my girlfriend and her sister invited me to go and I said sure, i'll buy my own ticket and then you know I'll go with you guys. We dressed up as a team Titans, that's why I was robbing. I posted pictures to the chat for the people listening So you can't see it, but they can.

Speaker 2: I can't I don't know who that guy was. My brain.
Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's top gun. Yeah, maverick, maybe. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So a funny thing about these pictures my girlfriend's taking all of these because I was like a big nerd running around and I see people that I recognize and I was like I got to take a picture with you. Is that okay? And you're like sure, let's go for it. That's now. Who are these? Yeah, i don't know who this dog is. Yeah, i don't know, the dog's crazy.
Speaker 1: Fido, it's a big dog.
Speaker 2: You could tell that the guy was like standing on something too at the bottom.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can still see, Yeah.
Speaker 2: So they had this little station set up in the back of the convention center and I seen Chewie from a distance and I was like what the fuck?
Speaker 1: And I walked over there. It's a really good cosplay right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was really cool. Yeah, and there was a general Kenobi. I didn't get to Fucking recycle bin.
Speaker 1: We can't see it. There's a delay because of the twist.
Speaker 3: I love it, i love it Bane.
Speaker 2: Oh, my mom, The Bane was really cool to talk to him for a little bit. He looked cool as hell.
Speaker 1: Yeah, i wish we could have seen him more up front.
Speaker 2: Yeah, i wanted to get like a fist up version with him, because Robin Bane type stuff That was cool.
Speaker 1: Did you ask him what would happen if you took off his mask?
Speaker 2: I didn't, i didn't want to like.
Speaker 3: One thing you have to ask.
Speaker 1: No, that's the one thing you have to ask every Bane cosplayer. And then I have to go. It would be very painful for you.
Speaker 2: This guy didn't say a word, by the way. I looked at him and said, hey, can we take a picture? He nodded his head.
Speaker 1: I think he was trying to stay, like any character. Yeah, i love it He's keeping K-Fabe. I love that Any character.
Speaker 2: I was dope with the shit. I was like, thank you so much, i'll see you. Man, he just walked away. I love it.
Speaker 1: He could have did the tattoo on the neck. At least He could have slimmed down a little bit Wow. We all struggle, sometimes the best of us.
Speaker 3: Just self included.
Speaker 1: I love them. I'm just saying If you want to keep the character, that is some crazy bright pink hair, though I gotta say That's me and my girl.
Speaker 2: That's a wig. Yeah, that's a wig. Yeah, she's wearing green contacts.
Speaker 3: Oh, that's dedication. She's got to be starting my contact.
Speaker 2: I put on contacts too, and it's been a while, so that was interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, those contacts are a little big for your eyes.
Speaker 2: You're wearing contacts under the mask. I'm wearing contacts under because I didn't want to wear them, like my glasses, and just keep. Oh yeah, eventually it took off the contacts because it was getting like annoying. No, yeah, gotcha.
Speaker 1: Well cool, It looks like it was a good time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and at the Comic Con I got to meet one of the original Boba Fett actors and I nerded out, of course, when I seen him, He only told me he played a couple of scenes. His name is John Martin and he was really cool to talk to. I might be wrong, am I wrong?
Speaker 1: I like how he saw us going to Google.
Speaker 2: Am I wrong?
Speaker 1: I didn't go to Google.
Speaker 2: I should post to it. Yeah, am I the guy? Oh, john Morton, i'm so sorry, morton, john Morton.
Speaker 1: Yeah, see, you don't offended him.
Speaker 2: I hope he doesn't see this.
Speaker 1: He's watching it right now live and he's like oh, john's talking about me. Clearly didn't leave a lasting impression on you, Dump.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to take up too much of his time because I didn't want to be that guy who, like, stays with this person. Was there a line? though There was a little bit of a line.
Speaker 1: All right, fair enough.
Speaker 2: And it wasn't like super long or anything. There's people behind me and I was like, let me ask like my one question and be like hey, man, can you sign this for me? And I thought that was respectable.
Speaker 3: Did you buy anything?
Speaker 2: I got an autograph from him, but did you pay for it? Yeah, i paid for it.
Speaker 1: Okay, i was going to say it's really bad con etiquette if you just go up and ask for an autograph without buying something or paying for the autograph, because I've seen it so many times I was like, oh, I didn't want to do that.
Speaker 2: That would have been so embarrassing.
Speaker 1: No, you don't do that. You don't do that. I know They're there to work. You got to.
Speaker 3: Did.
Speaker 1: I tell you, when I was at Bake and Fest, josh, i got Bob and Brian. You know who they are on the radio.
Speaker 2: Of course I know Bob and Brian.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I got their signature.
Speaker 3: Why.
Speaker 1: Because I wanted to And I paid them with bacon. You shouldn't have paid them with shit. Bob and Brian Suck. I've listened to Bob and Brian since I was like four years old just from it being out in the car. Yeah that's what I told them to. But have you listened to Bob and Brian lately? Yeah, it's just right wing bullshit, crap.
Speaker 3: I listened to them at the right time.
Speaker 2: It's when they're talking sports.
Speaker 1: They bring this guy from Nevada and they talk sports and it's actually not bad. But anyways, I'm sorry to hijack that.
Speaker 2: No, that was funny. Sorry, go ahead.
Speaker 3: You had the best time of all time, but I'll be, confess to you.
Speaker 2: I asked them what was it like wearing the armor? He said, oh, it felt like a normal outfit and everything. It was a little hot, but that was it. And then he told me about Boba Feds' gun, which is a I forgot the name of it, but it was a British World War I and World War II flare gun that was forcefully pushed out and during the time Star Wars couldn't afford expensive props, so World War II was cheap at the time, so they were able to get their hands on this old flare gun And then, of course, they added the scope to it and added the extension to it to make it more look like the blaster. And he told me it was laying on his arm for hours and it said his left bicep was destroyed after shooting. Thanks, are we going to start?
Speaker 1: That's great though, that you got that insight directly. Shut up post. We're having a moment here Like it's like you had that. You know direct one-on-one because Boba Fett's one of your favorite characters.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yes, he is, and it was so exciting And I felt bad because I didn't talk about other character and I knew his other character. but, like I said, I didn't want to stay there for too long.
Speaker 1: Yeah, drax from Guardians of the Galaxy, right Yeah.
Speaker 2: Dax. Yeah, drax, i did get a signature. I'm gonna show it off because I need to Do it.
Speaker 1: Let's see it. Whip it out, dude.
Speaker 2: Brighten up my room.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta set the mood lighting first. So, this is a signature.
Speaker 2: It's very pretty and it says Bespin Boba right there.
Speaker 1: Oh, because he was Boba and Bespin. That's really cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really cool. I seen that and like I got a smile to my face and said, hey, man, have a great day. And he said you too, goodbye. And that was it.
Speaker 1: Well, you got that for the rest of your life, dude. Oh yeah, man, that's like when I so just not to steal your thunder, but my first con I went to was to go see Claudio Sanchez from Kohin, cambria, but he's a comic book writer as well, and it wasn't even Claudio that made my day, it was his wife. Like, while we were waiting in line for the signing to start, i was just chatting with Claudio's wife the entire time, and that, to me, was just so cool, and so I have that memory of just having that conversation with his wife for like 15, 20 minutes, dude bro It was a great time, but I still remember it and that was like 15 years ago now probably, So it's cool that you're going to carry that memory forever.
Speaker 2: And I also remember Sergeant Slaughter was there, a old WWE wrestler. He was there And I remember turning I didn't know they were there. I thought it was going to be like they were going to like announce it and be like they're here now go see them over here. I went around the corner and I seen fucking Sergeant Slaughter and like I got starstruck And I don't even like Sergeant Slaughter like that. Yeah, dude looked and I was like shit, oh fuck, that's Sergeant Slaughter.
Speaker 1: It's actually funny you mentioned that because at my at that first con that I was at the one I was just talking about, like Jerry the King Lawler was there, oh shit, and I didn't even know he was there. And I just see fucking Jerry the King Lawler, no line, no, nothing, he's just standing there, dude, dude.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, holy fuck, it's Jerry the King Lawler. And my buddy who I'm with not a wrestling fan at all doesn't even know who it is. He's like oh shit, let's go get his autograph for something. I can't talk to him. I can't talk to Jerry the King Lawler. Every single Monday night of my childhood, jerry the King Lawler was talking directly to me like I cannot talk to him. I kept walking, i didn't look at him, i couldn't do it. I was like I was literally frozen. So that's the cool thing about those cons is you get to.
Speaker 2: And it killed me. Oh my God, It's cool dude And I wanted to go see him, so bad. But I was like I'm not going to buy anything And it's going to be like, hey, man, bye. Yeah, that's one of those things.
Speaker 1: If you're like hell, yeah, you got to go up give him some cash and get something and then chat him up a little bit.
Speaker 2: You can charge him like 80 and stuff which makes sense because who he is And I was like Oh, who Sergeant Slaughter was. Yeah, okay, it was just really cool to see him. I didn't need to talk to him or anything like that, but I'll remember seeing him and being like shit, that Sergeant.
Speaker 1: Slaughter. That's the environment of those cons, that's where you go.
Speaker 2: The person who voices Invader Zim was there. I don't know if you guys ever watched Invader Zim.
Speaker 1: He was there.
Speaker 2: The line was fucking massive for him. He's probably done other stuff too, though He's done a lot. He's been like Billy and Mandy. He's very talented. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1: I was going to reference the main bad guy from Skylanders. He was also that. Fair enough, dude. Fair enough, that's funny, it's chaos. That's the name of the character. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, chaos.
Speaker 2: I used to love Skylanders. That's funny. I hear it now Yeah, it's him, yeah, and this line was massive. I remember walking around with my girlfriend and it said he's here. And then I went around the corner and the line was building up to the wall and I was like shit, i'm not waiting in that.
Speaker 1: Well, and that's one of those things, though, where, even if he was Invader Zim to you, to all of those people in line, he was somebody that they. He was their Boba Fett. You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah right To me. he was Billy from Billy and Mandy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean to all those people in line waiting to talk to him they were a character that means something to them and I love that.
Speaker 2: It's so cool. The whole environment was cool. I never took so many pictures in my life. by the way, Everyone, a lot of people, were stopping me and being like, hey, Robin, can you take a picture? And it's like sure.
Speaker 1: That reminds me. My best friend, nando, and I went to C2E2, the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo, and we went insanely drunk, and our goal for the night was to take the most photos with people. So Nando had He was wearing my Spider-Man hoodie that had a hood that was like Spider-Man's mask, and we were pretending it was a really tough cosplay. So we were taking pictures with all of these people that were in actual cosplay costumes. Acting like his was a real cosplay costume, and my favorite moment of the night, though, was there was this girl who was dressed up I don't even know what, as There was a line of people. She was just a con visitor, but there was a line of people to take pictures with her because her costume was so great and her boyfriend was standing next to her. So we're like, hey, can we take a picture with you? The boyfriend He was so stoked. He's like, yeah, yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 1: That's an all time story right there. I still have that picture somewhere. I gotta find it. but he was so happy Like you can see the look on his face because he's just been standing next to his girlfriend all day and finally somebody asked him to take a picture.
Speaker 2: Oh, and at the con, i signed up for a tournament as well which was Injustice 2.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a shame, i'm sorry.
Speaker 3: I kind of liked that game.
Speaker 2: I won two games. I got to I almost got the semifinals, but when I got to Losers' Bracket they had me play against the same guy who beat me because there was no one else playing. I was like shit. he beat my ass And I was rusty too, but he genuinely beat me. It was a really good sport about it. It was very fun.
Speaker 1: So did you take?
Speaker 2: your girlfriend for ice cream afterwards?
Speaker 1: No, no.
Speaker 2: I went to Texas Rote House.
Speaker 1: So I couldn't find the picture of me and the guy, but I did find the picture of me and Claudio Sanchez. There is that. I posted it. Oh, you posted it in the chat.
Speaker 3: You did it in the.
Speaker 1: Look at that. Why not Look at baby Josh? Look at baby Josh with Claudio Sanchez. Wow, so that was my first con. So when are you going to start pulling those strings with his wife to get Claudio on the show? Oh Jesus, let me see if I can make that happen. I mean, maybe I could corral the YouTube thing. Who knows Kidding You. Just, you still got his wife's phone number right. She winked at me, to be fair. Oh, there you go.
Speaker 2: There you go. So since I mentioned Sergeant Salater, can we dive into WWE a little more?
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Listen, you're never going to get the guitars in the way.
Speaker 2: What was your guys' favorite tag team while watching? Like my tag teams, there was always Dudley boys. Oh, no shot really. Yeah, i love them too.
Speaker 1: Well, i mean, can't you tell when I go Josh, yeah, you know, Get the bucket, get the bucket, yeah, it's great. I don't know, dude, because like around that era it was like hardy boys. Dudley boys and Edge and Christian.
Speaker 3: It might be a three-way tie.
Speaker 1: I came in at Undertaker where almost past my time like brothers of destruction. Yeah, Oh, what's that?
Speaker 2: I feel like they hadn't gotten together yet.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, it's either Hardy boys or Edge and Christian. Was he big evil, yeah? Oh yeah, edge and Christian No this was like this was right, this was right before big evil. Okay, like I stopped watching during big evil about that And then I picked up later.
Speaker 2: One of my personal favorites, besides the Dudley boys, would be Ray, mysterio and Eddie.
Speaker 3: Oh, oh.
Speaker 2: When they were a tag team it was so fun to watch them both because it was, i think they were beefing at the time. Well, like beefing at the time, man.
Speaker 1: I missed, so it was always fun. I missed wrestling back then. I don't know why but the whole bit of? was it Christian Having ass cream or some bullshit?
Speaker 3: I don't know if that stands out to anybody.
Speaker 1: I don't remember There was some stupid bit about Christian needing ass cream And for whatever reason, that bit sticks with me to this day. And it was just some stupid thing on SmackDown one night Like I don't know why, but those are the best ones you know like just that random shit, you remember.
Speaker 2: And you guys know that tag team at Rikishi Like Too Cool, i think that was the name of it. Oh, yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: Oh, who was?
Speaker 2: it. Yeah, it was Scotty Too Hotty, scotty Too Hotty, and all the worm. Well, it was yes.
Speaker 3: Scotty Too Hotty You guys are you guys are forgetting.
Speaker 1: I forgot his name. Fuck, it was Jerry the King, lawler's son, oh, i don't know. Brian Christopher, but what was his name? I?
Speaker 2: don't remember his name. I just remember Scotty Too Hotty and Rikishi.
Speaker 1: Hold on, let me look up, because it was Too Hot and Too Sexy. Grandmaster Sexy.
Speaker 2: Grandmaster. Sexy, that's what it was, or Sex A.
Speaker 1: Sex A, that's right. Sex A. Rest in peace, buddy.
Speaker 2: Dude. I used to love their theme song when I was a kid Because my mom would play it for me all the time because she loves wrestling, and I just loved Harry Rikishi's theme.
Speaker 1: Yeah, rikishi, dude. Rikishi sucks though, because he was inducted into the Hall of Fame But he didn't mention Too Cool at all. He didn't. Nope What That's so sad, i know it was so fucked up.
Speaker 2: You think it was like a WWE thing, Or was it just like him not mentioning it?
Speaker 1: Well, I think I don't know if Brian Christopher was still alive at the time or not, but I think Scotty Too Hotty came out and was like oh okay, you're welcome. Like he was kind of hurt by it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd be hurt. That was. That's so shitty. I feel like WWE probably didn't want him to mention it, or something.
Speaker 1: I mean maybe, but yeah.
Speaker 2: You know, like the showcase mode in the game with John Cena. Yeah, CM Punk isn't there And CM Punk and John Cena rivalry was really good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course but they can't put CM Punk in there.
Speaker 2: I know, but like John was like, these are my best matches ever.
Speaker 1: Well, his best match ever was the Raw where fucking Punk gave John Cena the Pile Driver.
Speaker 2: Oh God, that was so good, So good.
Speaker 1: All right, this is a wrestling podcast. now Bucket fights. I mean, we got a logo for it. We're gonna slap it on and call it a day That's right. Bucket fight.
Speaker 2: But yeah, sorry, i wanted to talk about tag teams because I've been on this. I was rewatching a bunch of Dudley Boyce stuff and it got me like loving tag teams again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, those were like that whole like right that WWF to WWE right in that era. That transition stage was just so good, The attitude era It was. Man, I wish I could have stayed like that, because well, I mean, there were multiple things. It yeah. the main problem was when WCW went under and there was no more competition, it was just like, all right, we can placate. and then WWE went public. So then they had a, they had stockholders they had to appeal to and yeah, so here we are, the wrestling business is so messy.
Speaker 3: Part of the.
Speaker 1: UFC. What's that? Now, they're part of the UFC. Well, they're owned by the same company. But yeah, yeah, it's weird. It's weird man.
Speaker 2: Well, you guys like evolution during that time I didn't get the really.
Speaker 1: I love their theme song.
Speaker 2: I love their theme song too. I like Batista.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's great. He was amazing in that M Night Shyamalan movie. He was the only good part of that movie?
Speaker 2: Oh you talking about Night in the Cabin? Yes, I loved him in that movie. He was so good. It was the only good part of that movie, but he was fucking amazing. He was such a good actor.
Speaker 1: By the way, everybody out there, look up, there's a Blade Runner. When he was in Blade Runner, there was like a short film they made focusing on his character. I don't remember what it's called, but it was fucking amazing Batista is such a good actor.
Speaker 2: He's so good. I love him so much more now.
Speaker 3: I love him more for his movies than wrestling sometimes.
Speaker 1: What's that post Knock at the Cabin? That's like a new fucking movie. Yeah, it just came out. Yeah, oh.
Speaker 2: It was a weird horror movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't good, but Batista was great in it Very grim Interesting.
Speaker 2: I thought it was fun to watch, but it was very just straight to the point.
Speaker 1: Did he have his trademark twist? No, not really. There's kind of a twist, but it's not like a Shyamalan twist, but it's based on a book, so maybe that's why. Oh sure Okay.
Speaker 2: Like I said, it's kind of straightforward, to the point. They kind of tell you what's going to happen in the beginning and then that happens.
Speaker 1: It's one of those movies where it's like a group of characters come in and say, hey, the world's going to end. So then you have to, kind of throughout the film are they telling the truth or are they not?
Speaker 2: And then, the first time it happens, i think they should have just believed them. Well, no, the first one was really fucked up, though.
Speaker 3: And they were like predicting it. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying don't spoil too much there, dom Cause that might be a watch this movie.
Speaker 2: Oh really, oh shit.
Speaker 1: Oh, dude, it's okay. I can't remember what I had for breakfast, so like you could tell me one thing and I'm not going to fucking remember it unless I have my text in front of me. You have nothing to worry about, unless it hurts my feelings. Then it'll stick with me until I never get over it.
Speaker 1: Oh, man. Anyways, i don't know, man, What do you guys say? You guys want to wrap it up here. I can say we wrap it just cause I got to run in the bathroom. Yeah, okay, all right, sounds good, i think we're good here.

Speaker 1: He put that in. So at work today I watched someone play it for three hours. They played it for that long. I was just going to say I'm surprised you watched it for that long. Like you didn't get the point after. I'm 100% convinced they're getting paid to play it.
Speaker 2: I've been playing that damn WWE game so much I'm trying to get like good at it so I can make me and post this match look good, but that game is such a guessing game online. Yeah, we got to like, i think, for moves we have to say what moves we're going to do. That's going to be annoying.
