Introduction to Unqualified Game Chat
00:00:21
Speaker
Hello and welcome to episode 67 of Unqualified Game Chat. I'm your host, Zara Lopez, and with me today is the bright, the beautiful, Spencer, the legacy. Hello, everyone. Hello, Spencer. Hello. You're wearing a very nice shirt today. Thank you. It's probably from Old Navy.
00:00:43
Speaker
I usually button all the way up, but you're a, you're a two buttons down. Is that a one button down guys? One year be like this. Oh, I love, I love being choked out when I'm wearing a nice collared shirt.
00:00:58
Speaker
Mm hmm. Is that is that a little Zario lower drops? Well, we I give a little sprinkle every now and then. Podcast listener ladies, you one percent out there. You ever want to get the Zario hot and bothered?
Humorous Shirt Discussion
00:01:12
Speaker
Choke him out on the street like a shirt. And, you know, that just drives him wild. Please don't. Please don't choke me out. You could ask. And if I say yes, by all means.
00:01:31
Speaker
If I give them consent, that's fair. It's fair. It has to give you an ocular pat down before.
00:01:39
Speaker
before you can choke her. The choking commences. Yeah. All right. Yeah. You, you can choke. Oh, it took us, what, the intro to drive this off there. We actually have stuff to talk about. We have plenty to talk about, but kind of, I just enjoy catching up with my dear friends,
Spencer's Recent Activities
00:01:58
Speaker
Spencer. Yeah, it's fun. And I think the listeners enjoy that as well. Have you been up to anything recently?
00:02:08
Speaker
Not really, just I've been keeping up with the gym and what's happened is the last one, I don't think anything, just working. And then, yeah. I actually put out a preview and a review this week, which is big for me. I'll put up a preview today.
00:02:30
Speaker
What was the
Game Previews and Reviews
00:02:32
Speaker
preview for? The Fire Emblem Warriors demo. Yes, we have that up on Noisy Pixel as well. My boss was writing a review for Biomotor, Unitron, I think it's called. Oh, the Switch Neo Geo game.
00:02:48
Speaker
Yeah. And he found noisy pixels when he was looking at how other people like structured their reviews, I guess, or like who was reviewing it. And he saw it narrated by Spencer Lacy. But he also saw that I posted my review of Montserrat. He said, are you in two reviews, motherfucker? Oh, my God. No, no, no, no. You didn't narrate. I just narrate. Boy, that's all. I just think so. You reviewed that game. I reviewed that game. I liked it.
00:03:17
Speaker
It was nothing like I thought it was going to be for sure. Same here. Especially from SNK. I reviewed Neon White.
00:03:32
Speaker
Oh yeah. From Annapurna Interactive. It was a, like I said, like I alluded to last year or last week, I kind of said that there was a game that I was playing that
00:03:48
Speaker
made me a little excited to play video games again, and that was the game.
Excitement for Upcoming Games
00:03:54
Speaker
Wow. I was very invested. I completed it, and I continued to play it, and that's rare for me nowadays. Right now, it's really
00:04:08
Speaker
It's really set the groundwork for next month when I jump into Digimon Survive and Xenoblade Chronicles 3. There's just so much that I needed to prepare myself for in terms of
00:04:28
Speaker
I mean, it's tough to, how do you plan out your day when you have to edit all these pieces? I have to work on these review videos. I have to write, answer a ton of emails that are coming in, especially right now with the Anime Expo coming up.
00:04:52
Speaker
Unplug and start playing a game. And I think I got a pretty good grasp on it while playing Neon Y. And I'm glad that I did. Nice. It's good. I'm glad. I also played Solstice. It's a God of War, Devil May Cry type game. It's really cool. It's really cool. Looking forward to that game. I'm looking forward to playing it more. So there's a preview on the site. And with that,
00:05:19
Speaker
podcast is recorded every week posted to podcast services on Thursdays or Fridays or Fridays sometimes sometimes I I get so overwhelmed with stuff that I just forget to press publish it's like that it's like
00:05:37
Speaker
That's that many steps away. I get lazy with random things. So I'm sorry. We're back to Thursdays. Back Thursdays. I promise. So if anybody's going to give my boy grief, you got to go through me. Oh, thanks.
00:05:52
Speaker
It probably won't be very hard, but you still have to. I used to tell people, I still tell people that I got bullied a lot in high school, especially freshman year. But because Jackass was so big that I would throw myself into the garbage cans. You poor man. I had a friend like that.
00:06:18
Speaker
I just accepted that I was a fucking loser. I was just like, no one's going to like me at lunch. You know, at lunch, did you go to your did you hide with in a teacher's room or something? Did you know my one friend and I went to a stairwell every day? Oh, you're the stairwell kid. And we would talk about Final Fantasy 13.
00:06:37
Speaker
hmm it was every bit as sad as it sounds but they're really good times when I think back on them so yeah that's funny because I remember my junior year I was talking about Final Fantasy 10 how
00:06:52
Speaker
How crazy is that? How crazy is that? It's wild. Maybe a sophomore year. I don't know. But everyone was still like looking forward to 13. I remember there was like previews of 13 while Final Fantasy kind of 10 was going on because Final Fantasy 11 and 10 were were released really close together, if I remember correctly. I think so. It's like how when they when they announced 14 wasn't 13 not out yet. And they were like,
00:07:22
Speaker
The next one is an MMO. Yeah, yes. Yeah. And we all know how that turned out. Eventually really well, but not at the start. So we have some things to talk about.
Critique of Jeff Keely's Showcase
00:07:36
Speaker
Xbox had a showcase. I think Jeff Keeley had a showcase. Is that right? Jeff Keeley's Power Hour.
00:07:45
Speaker
Yeah. Did you notice how every, how every person that joined him on stage had to, uh, had to first give him a compliment and then kiss his ring. See, at first I was like, did I miss that? And then you said, I was like, Oh, I didn't do that because I would have laughed really hard.
00:08:04
Speaker
Dude, it felt like it, though, right? Oh, Jeff, you're the best for doing this. How do you do it, man? How do you wake up in the morning knowing you're the knowing you're the star gamer and and everybody aspires to be you?
00:08:17
Speaker
You got it. You got it out for poor Jeffy. I just don't get one guy. That guy hasn't played a damn game in his life. Oh, that's he's a fake gamer girl. That's me. He doesn't even know how to spell game, dude. I did laugh really hard when he said monkey to Luffy for one piece. I was like, oh my God, because I was watching that. I was covering that with my work. And they were like, we're all watching him. He goes, the adventures of monkey to Luffy. And I was like,
00:08:45
Speaker
Who are you kidding? Who the fuck are you kidding? Which I mean, OK, maybe you don't watch anime. That's fine. This isn't an animation, but still as always, a big one piece boy. I was as a big I have a shirt right here. One piece is a big one piece boy. I didn't like now that we're talking about the let's I guess I'll open it with what I didn't like. Right. Yeah. What fucking sucked? The The Last of Us coverage at the end, the closer.
00:09:15
Speaker
Wasn't my jam. That was weird to me because they're like, look at how different it looks. And I was like, am I fucking blind? Yeah. Are you? Am I being gaslit live? I was like, which one is the remake, dude? In real time. I think that I think the problem was is all this the stupid jokes about getting leaked, like, OK, we get it. Oh, you can tell Druckmann was was mad, was like seething. Druckmann's an asshole.
00:09:40
Speaker
I've heard that. I've heard that he was so mean to me when I met him one time. You met him at E3. He's mean to you. He just pretended like I was just sitting with him and just like talking to him real quick. And we're just we're sitting there for a while. And I think we're like a roundtable and we're waiting for something. And I was like, oh, Neil, I really enjoyed Last of Us. And I asked him some question and he sighs.
00:10:10
Speaker
stands up and walks, walks to him. Oh my God. Doesn't even say, Oh, I don't feel like talking. And I was in like, we're sitting there for a while. You know, I didn't, I, he, I didn't just sit down and be like, no, no, no. You know, like we're, we're sitting there. That's really rude. Size walks through that fucking deal. That's really rude. And I, and I was, I was with some, uh, I was working at dual joggers at the time and I was with, uh, some of my dual joggers folks. I was like, did that just really happen? They're like, yeah.
00:10:39
Speaker
Well, we all know Amy Hennig was the real talent. And anyway, there we go. There we go. It always comes back to Amy because she's brilliant. She wrote the she's she's done so much. She's on Star Wars right now. Yeah. OK, we've we've decided that. OK, yeah, she's on Star Wars anyway. I didn't I. I mean, the Last of Us PC and there's a show coming out real cool. And what's his name? That guy that voices everybody. Try Baker. Yeah. And the girl that hangs out with him all the time.
00:11:09
Speaker
the voice of Ellie. Yeah. She was an Avengers. Yeah, she was. That's all I remember. I forget her name. So she's Ashley something. Oh, yeah. Is Ashley Johnson? Something like that. Ashley. Something like that. It is Ashley Johnson. OK. OK. So.
00:11:30
Speaker
They're going to be in the show in some capacity, in some big role, I guess. Is it Dave? Did I miss them saying big? Because one of them said that I assume there's going to be like the Uncharted Nolan North thing, where he's like, I did that once. And he's like, OK, bye. I like the hot dog Bruce Campbell scene. Yeah, the hot dog. Yeah, exactly. I thought it was just going to be like a look. We put them in. So it's like the game. No, he said specifically that it was a big role for them.
00:11:59
Speaker
They're actually playing Joel and Ellie. I feel like Troy Baker is just a budget Jared Leto at this point. Jared Leto has more grievous accusations against him, so I wouldn't
00:12:18
Speaker
I don't think Troy Baker has any accusations against him. Yeah, yeah, because he doesn't send any bats or dead rats to his co-stars. Yeah, exactly. He doesn't send used condoms for the suicide squad. But at the same time, to me, we were talking about this. Troy Baker seems nice, but seems like an artist. Like like I just always think of a
00:12:47
Speaker
I think it was in the last two was coming out and he posted like some Teddy Roosevelt quote. And I was like, dude, it's a fucking video. Like, yeah, you're posting a presidential quote from like a war times about. Yeah, about the the serious uncharted game. Get back to your persona for roots, dude. Back to your NFTs that you canceled.
00:13:09
Speaker
That's mean. He canceled. So, you know, all good. But he was congee, though. You are right. He was a good congee. He was a good congee. There was a game shown called Callisto Protocol.
Callisto Protocol Discussion
00:13:26
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Callisto Protocol. It's a dead space, but not dead space. Is that the game by the guy who is one of the co-creators of Dead Space?
00:13:35
Speaker
And like was that was that the recent game where they're like, oh, it takes place in the PUBG universe? And then as it does, yes, because it's it's made by Krafton. Yeah, I think they I think they dialed back on that. But I think PUBG universe, it's a battle royale. Well, what does that mean? Krafton, who owns PUBG, wanted it to be wanted to expand on whatever
00:14:02
Speaker
Lore, they've included in PUBG. Yeah. What is the lore of PUBG, man, with frying pan on it on? I'll tell you the issue with Kraft on, though, is like they just have too much money. You know, they have so much money to throw around and kind of see what sticks. But this game looks like a game. And I think they saw that, oh, this is like an actual game. So let's dial back. It looks cool. Yeah, definitely looks to be cool.
00:14:32
Speaker
Street Fighter six or field guile. You care. I'm not I'm not a huge guilehead. I think the only character in the least leaked roster that I was like, oh, I play as him was Rashid. Everyone else. No Dudley. No Sakura. No Q. No Cody. No. No. No. Anybody that I dang play as.
00:14:55
Speaker
I don't think anyone can really match the King of Fighters roster. King of Fighters roster has someone for everyone. Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 2 revealed some gameplay. Looks like Call of Duty. Yeah, I've never played through a level of Call of Duty. Yeah, definitely. Aliens Dark Descent.
00:15:17
Speaker
Let's review. That was really funny how they were like, look at this game, look at the cinematic trailer and then like a shooter and then oh, it's isometric. Oh, yeah. They really got me. Marvel Marvel's Midnight Suns looks really good. I'm interested. I think it's really weird the moon nights not there, but otherwise. It looks interesting. I think I was saying to my friend that it's really weird that
00:15:47
Speaker
OK, I can I can, you know, Venom's there. That makes sense. So you can say, OK, Spider-Man is there to keep an eye on Venom or something. So even though he doesn't fit totally. But Iron Man and Captain Marvel and Captain America just don't fit that group at all. These are all like supernatural, darker street level heroes. And then they're like, here's bright red and blue Captain America and Captain Marvel. Were they were they a part of Midnight Sons? No.
00:16:14
Speaker
Well, they in the game there, but they're not like in the comics. So there's a really famous image of Midnight Suns. And my understanding is that it was a pitch that never got off. But everyone was like this pitch fucking rules. And then it was kind of like talked about a bit. But yeah, Cap Cap and Captain Marvel and Iron Man and Spider-Man were not were not part of that. It's mostly it's mostly the spooky.
00:16:42
Speaker
Ghost Rider, Ghost Rider Blade. That kind of thing. That's a cool idea. Damien Hellstrom.
00:16:51
Speaker
One Piece Odyssey showed off more gameplay. Monkey DeLuffy. Monkey DeLuffy. Monkey DeLuffy. Just today, I was watching people on YouTube react to One Piece scenes and getting emotional, so I'm excited. Yeah, they introduced the cast of characters, and it was just... It holds some nostalgia. This is a JRPG. Yeah, I like that. Is it turn-based? Do we know? I don't think we know. I saw there was a very quick...
00:17:20
Speaker
and it looked like someone chose their first. Yeah. It looks like he was fighting like a row of monsters. And that's cool. That's cool. Dragon Quest One Piece, sign me up. That's really cool. I think having that, yeah, it would be a Dragon Quest, kind of,
00:17:47
Speaker
It would be comparable to Dragon Quest. I mean, the open world that they have them set on, the island or whatever, it's very green, very bright. I love Dragon Quest for that reason. I love Dragon Quest art.
00:18:03
Speaker
So like with Dragon Quest, it's like the world is very bright. And when the bleakness happens, the tone, you feel the tone when, oh shit, the darkness. There's a real contrast. And they play, especially in the new one, they were able to do that, unlike all the other games in terms of dark tone. That's a really fun game if you have not played it. Please do. It's long.
00:18:32
Speaker
It is long, but it's worth it. It's long. So cool. Yeah. So the show itself, there's a lot of like first-person shooters and crap. What would have made you excited, more excited about that show? I'm trying to think of like the projects that
00:18:57
Speaker
I really wanted to see that are confirmed to exist, because obviously there's like not going to happen. Things that were it's like, oh, I would love if they announced Marvel vs. Capcom three. Oh, I would love to see the city, like, I don't know, but stuff that exists. I mean, my answer for years would have been digital and survive, but it's coming. I don't know. Maybe like I was hoping for a youth in Chronicles gameplay. Hmm.
00:19:28
Speaker
They didn't show it, because they showed it last year, but it wasn't in this one. Yeah. I was home for a little Spider-Man 2. That would have been nice. I love Spider-Man. Was any PlayStation exclusive stuff in that show? Wasn't Last of Us. Yeah, they closed out last year.
00:19:51
Speaker
Otherwise, but that was PC. Yeah, that's true. That was the big thing about it. So weird. But Spider-Man is coming to PC to the first one. So so weird. I'm trying to think alike. I don't know, because like Nintendo wouldn't show anything. They wait for their thing. Sony mostly wouldn't. Capcom had their own thing.
00:20:19
Speaker
I guess that we can, I guess we can use that to, to kind of go into Capcom's
Resident Evil 4 Remake
00:20:23
Speaker
event. Were you able to watch it? Yeah, it's funny. Did you get, did you get a little sad when,
00:20:33
Speaker
when they showed Phoenix Wright. I did. I saw Billy's tweet. I was like, that's so true. That fucked me up. Yeah. Why do that? I did think that the Resident Evil 4 stuff is cool. That's cool. I think it was last week we talked about like the first game, the first Resident Evil 4 has like the perfect tone. It's schlocky and spooky and actiony and fun. And I'm worried
00:21:02
Speaker
Well, I'm of two minds because the remake, I don't think we'll have that. And that's very central to Resident Evil four. But at the same time, I've been on record saying I'm fine with Resident Evil doing a Yakuza Kiwami thing where they slightly alter stuff to fit like a continuous story more in these remakes because the original is still there. So I'm interested, though.
00:21:26
Speaker
Did you see the showcase though, where he was walking through the forest and like the lighting effects that they had on there? There was some, you know, there's some legit parts in Resident Evil 2 remake where I was playing as Leon walking through the halls of the police.
00:21:43
Speaker
quarters and I had very little ammo left and I had two freaking zombies walking my way and I was, I was legit scared. Yeah, it's free. It's really good at being dead. So I'm hoping that the good thing about, I think, well, why I liked Resident Evil 4 might've been more because I,
00:22:06
Speaker
I really enjoyed the scale. It was like, you're going from one place to another the entire time where most other games, there's only a few look locales. Yeah. This one is your, you're on, you have a mission that leads you to a place where you were like, your mind is kind of like, whoa, like there's a, there's a shift here. Yeah.
00:22:31
Speaker
There's a cult. There's a huge-ass monsters for some reason. There's a guy that's selling you crap. Yeah. And there's Luis. And then there's a girl. There's this love guy who's like, hello. Oh, yeah. I think you're going to be able to play as Ashley in this one.
00:22:53
Speaker
It looks like it, which I mean, you briefly do and for for like the one segment where she's trying to get back to Leon. That's true. Eight along. I'll be. Sign me up. Yeah, it'll put Ada back. Although I read that her voice actress wasn't contacted to be in it, the one from two, which is weird. But maybe that's I don't know what actors say is truth and what's Andrew Garfield being like, I'm not in Spider-Man like.
00:23:19
Speaker
Yeah, there's NDAs flying around. There's NDAs. But A, I'll be really mad. I don't care if they change the tone for the remake. I can live with that. If they get rid of the, where's everybody going? Bingo. That's a deal breaker, baby. That's a no buy. And B, I do wish they did Code Veronica first.
00:23:42
Speaker
They're not going to. They're not going to. But I think that would have been a really cool way to, A, bring eyes to Code Veronica and B, fix that cool but flawed game. I think it would have been a good opportunity to do that, but.
00:23:59
Speaker
There's such a good connection though between Resident Evil 2 and Code Veronica where Claire does get a little more screen time and
00:24:20
Speaker
And he and it was the game that bonded her with Chris, you know, before that, we knew that they were brother and sister, but you don't really like they just have the same last name, really. Yeah. You know, and.
00:24:36
Speaker
I feel like something's coming because they have Chris in the new games and stuff. I feel like they're building to something and whatever Resident Evil 9 would be, you know. But what I like is that even with Resident Evil Village, they have
00:24:59
Speaker
a new protagonist that we kind of are supposed to latch onto, you know? Yeah. Whereas usually you would play as Leon or Claire, but now those characters, they have their own, they have their own lives, their own like trajectory. So it was so smart of them to play, to create this new character for us.
00:25:21
Speaker
and get him invested in the world so that we get it. We figure out what's going on through him. Yeah. I wonder how they're going to expand on that in nine. And I also hate that they spoiled the end of village in this conversation. What the fuck? That was really funny. I was like, guys, I know it's been out for like a year and a bit, but that's fucked up to not warn people. They fucking showed the fucking ending. Yeah.
00:25:49
Speaker
Which I mean, they had to I guess they have to because that's where it picks up. Yeah, they have. So you and and there's the and there's the idea that they're kind of marketing and as like, oh, is she is she in a dream world? What's going on? That section was very Kingdom Hearts. They're like, she enters the consciousness and she sees herself, but she's different. She has to fight her way through her memories. And I was like, this is
00:26:13
Speaker
I'm fine with it, but it's silly. Yeah, very silly. I'm into it. I'm into it. I love Village. Yeah, I love Village too. Village is a lot of fun. It's one of those games we're talking about. It makes me want to play it again. Yeah, it's true.
00:26:30
Speaker
I wouldn't survive in VR, though, the baby house. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, the baby house would fuck me. I remember playing that screaming. Yeah. Like I woke up. I was had roommates at the time and I woke them up because I was like, ah, it was like it was like a real that rules beer, a real fear. And I love that. I love that. I love being scared. I feel so good. It's true.
00:27:00
Speaker
So let's hope that that continues. But I guess people are upset because Resident Evil 7 isn't going to have a third person mode. Yeah, which I mean...
00:27:16
Speaker
It'd be cool if it did, but I don't think so. I'm not wanting to go back. They made that game. They made that game specifically for VR. There's no doubt about it that that was a VR test game. Yeah, I don't know how well Village is going to work with the third person. Kind of jumping off of PT and how good that was. And I think... It's crazy how that little demo had such a...
00:27:43
Speaker
wild impact on horror games. Yeah. And I remember them doing like ace combat was supposed to be like for VR.
00:27:54
Speaker
His combat is still getting TLC too. Top gun DLC. So what else did Capcom announce? They did Exo Primal. It looked better than it did on its first show. It's fine. That's what it is. It's just fine. It's always going to be not Dino Crisis. Yeah, yeah. And then what they showed a lot of Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak looks great.
00:28:15
Speaker
I already saw a ton of that, but it looks great. Looks great. It's they said Dragon's Dogma will get a video remembering Dragon's Dogma. Goodbye. Do you remember this game called Dragon's Dogma? Just wanted to check. Have a nice night.
00:28:34
Speaker
Xbox had a showcase, and although it was very much what you'd expect from an Xbox showcase, they did announce that Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 5 for AL.
Persona Series Announcement
00:28:48
Speaker
It's coming to PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Series X.
00:28:55
Speaker
And, uh, that's, that's exciting. That is cool. I like that. I think the big thing, the big news out of this is, uh, persona three portable, getting new text options for more people to play it. Um, getting a slight up res, but I mean, I'm before the show, we talked about this. Um, it's not the whole game.
00:29:18
Speaker
Yeah, for those who haven't played Persona 3, there are three versions. There's Persona 3, there's Persona 3 FES, and there's Persona 3 Portable. And FES has the epilogue, the answer.
00:29:36
Speaker
Is there, is there just a base three or did it only come out in the West as a few others? No, there's a base three in the West. I just want to make sure they're both relatively cheap too. If you want to, if you want to go back and if you want to put them on your PS2, they're both relatively cheap. Under 20, under 20 bucks. You can find them. Yeah.
00:29:53
Speaker
So the PS2 on FES, it makes it so you have the answer epilogue, which is canon as far as I understand. And then Persona 3 Portable has, it lets you control your party members, which you couldn't in FES, which was a lot of people's dismay. And it has the female main character route,
00:30:21
Speaker
which is like other universe canon, because Theo, Theo, I think his name is, the elevator, the blue attendant, velveter room person, brother says is in one of the spinoffs. I just had like a mental breakdown saying that sentence. And then, and it also has,
00:30:40
Speaker
But it and you can control people, but you the you can't run around the world. It's it's like a visual novel kind of thing where you like point and click. So there's no real definitive version of Persona 3 that has the answer and controllable people and the female MC and they would have to go. They would have to go back to development. They would need to have to make it. They would have to make up. Which I mean, I get why they don't. But I'm semi surprised because
00:31:10
Speaker
Persona three is cool. Like I have my favorites for. But story wise, I think three is probably like totally the coolest. It's like the most. Yeah. If you're trying to be like cool guy persona fan, you like persona three. You like persona three. Or if you're like the bad boys, it's like the bad boys persona. Ancient cool persona fan, you like to.
00:31:30
Speaker
Ooh. No one likes one. Exactly. Two in the West. Did we ever get the proper two? We got one of them. Didn't we get one of them on PS1 and one of them on PSP? Yeah, so the PSP one is the one you'll have to play. Yeah. Well, aren't they each like half? So like Eternal Punishment or Eternal Sin? Eternal Sin. And something punishment. I have the PS1 games. Yeah, I remember that. That's pretty good.
00:32:01
Speaker
They should do a definitive one of that, too. I was so confused when someone was trying to explain that's not the right. That's not the real two. And I was like, freaking talking about. So that I had to be I had to be schooled, as they said, by a real persona in their mind. That's like a real SMT, a fucking there. It's like back in the day trying to explain to me like the Final Fantasy chronological order in the West.
00:32:26
Speaker
I remember that really good when the Zelda timeline was first the thing, that one picture from Brawl of Sonic punching Zelda, I mean, Link. And you almost flubbed up that one. I almost had a gamer fuck up, but it's because I said Zelda right before. He was punching Link and it said in impact font under it in all white.
00:32:48
Speaker
Where does that fit into? And that was the funny issue. I shared that on Facebook. I was like, that's the funniest shit in the world. And as a society since then, we've really gone downhill because because we're so baked in irony now that that is that's not even remotely funny. It's crazy that we used to like people used to laugh at you like the family circus.
00:33:12
Speaker
Like the newspapers trips, they'd be like, this is funny. What was the dog's name? Marmaduke. Marmaduke. Yeah, people thought Marmaduke and Garfield were the fucking tits. And now they're like, now that's the fucking... I don't even know what memes are anymore. Now it's like... I loved Zits. That was a comic show. Oh yeah, I remember Zits. Garfield's pretty good.
00:33:36
Speaker
I mean, probably not objectively. It's literally like the same concept. People say the show's good. Lazy cat. I didn't know about the show. Lazy cat. Garfield has spawned a really interesting subculture on the internet, so that's the...
00:33:50
Speaker
I'm continuing with this Xbox Showcase. I think one of the other big announcements was Wulong, Fallen Dynasty. Game is actually in development for all consoles, but this is like the Xbox Showcase.
Wulong: Fallen Dynasty Announcement
00:34:04
Speaker
This is developed by Team Ninja, who's not working on DOA7, it seems. Not even doing anything with DOA6 last round. So, the fuck? Like... Not even making Stranger Paradise Final Fantasy Origin 2.
00:34:18
Speaker
We could probably expect some DLC to come out for that game. There's DLC for that game, yeah. Good game, too. I love that game. It rules. It's the most... It's the dudes rock game.
00:34:33
Speaker
Yeah, that's the cool guy. That's that's the cool guy's Final Fantasy. That's the chance. Yeah. Oh, just hanging out. You know, I like Final Fantasy six. Yeah. Shut up, nerd. We're playing fucking Stranger in Paradise. They did it so well in Final Fantasy 15 as well. That was such a dude game. That's such a dude game.
00:34:51
Speaker
See, that's like male friendship game. And it's like, oh, that's really nice. They're like tender friends. And then Stranger Parrot is like dude's fucking rock. Like, bro, like that's the that's the your friend who you're fucking weird with, who you're like, you play Gary's mod with. And it's it's still that's what that is. It's a different avenue of friendship than 15.
00:35:15
Speaker
Azario and I are friends of both types. That's why we can appreciate both games. Yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. We wear a nice leather jacket when we go out. But during the daytime, we wear collared shirts. Yeah, exactly. Well, this this game looks really cool. Looks like Neo.
00:35:40
Speaker
has one of the guys from Masaki Yamagawa. Yamagawa. Yamagawa. Yamagawa. He works on Bloodborne. He's working on it too.
00:36:02
Speaker
And yeah, the description is Wulong Fallen Dynasty follows the dramatic action packed story of the nameless militia soldier fighting for survival in a dark fantasy version of the later Han Dynasty where demons plague the three kingdoms. Players will fight off deadly creatures and enemy soldiers using swordplay based on the Chinese martial arts attempting to overcome the odds by awakening the true power from within when Wulong Fallen Dynasty launches in
00:36:31
Speaker
early 2023. There you go. Next year's going to be big.
00:36:36
Speaker
Yeah, all right. A lot of stuff next year. And I think that's gonna be the first year, really, that we're kind of out of COVID, I'm gonna say, when we started seeing some real... Knock on wood. Knock on wood. Cross your fingers. Pray to Jesus. Oh, please, baby Jesus. Oh, dear Jesus, I'm sick of waiting inside. I'm sick of praying. Dear Jesus, let me play with my friends. I'm sick of playing hentai remakes. I need to play a new hentai.
00:37:07
Speaker
I'm sick of all these PS1 remakes. Oh, no more. These apps got a full RPG. These upscaled graphics aren't doing it for me anymore. It's not doing it no more. I don't even have fucking trophy support. This is 24 frames a second. What the fuck is that?
00:37:29
Speaker
I need to see my friends. I need to see my friends. I've been to America nearly three second years. I don't remember what it's like. I know I've got to add to my expo and I don't even know what to expect. We all know we are known for being clean and friendly. I know they have a Digimon event, though, going on in Mexico. That's worth it. That's worth getting an evil bug and die. Freak the fuck out.
00:37:56
Speaker
You're going to see a grown man. I'm afraid the fuck out. I'm using butterfly and we're going to weep. What's butterfly that come, a lady come, come, a lady. Oh, no. Oh, the first. Oh, yes, the G1. OK, OK.
00:38:14
Speaker
Why did my head go to put it in sugar? Oh my God. Sorry. I'm just so used to us referencing like pop culture, referencing mid nineties, things that no one cares about anymore.
00:38:33
Speaker
Yeah, like us. I have this I have this app that's called Be Real. It's a new social media thing. And they make you they make you record record stuff every time, like every day you're supposed to record something and then you post it. So so I'm going to record this real quick that we're talking. OK.
00:39:01
Speaker
And we're just on a podcast. It's supposed to be like, hey, every day at the same time a day, you'll post a video and all your friends on here post a video of what you're doing at the time so that you can't like you can't just show the best parts of your life. You know, you actually have to show what you're doing. People will manipulate it to show the best, but they will just. Oh, yeah. Yeah, they'll set it up.
00:39:24
Speaker
Don't worry, we only show the worst parts here. Well, Be Real does not sponsor this podcast. I don't even like the app. I hate I semi hate social media. So it is evil. Yeah. Well, occasionally it makes me laugh. So occasionally we got to get sucked. We're all going to get sucked at some point. We're all going to listen when I'm sent to the Zuck camp.
00:39:45
Speaker
because because I posted a naughty meme. I remember this day. Yeah. When when when Robo Zuck re educates me. She's the algorithm to break us down to show me all right propaganda on Facebook. Thank you, Zuckerberg. That's all I have to talk about.
Anticipation for Final Fantasy 7 Event
00:40:07
Speaker
Yeah, I think that's I think that's a good closer talk about Mark Zuckerberg abducting us.
00:40:14
Speaker
Well, everyone, thank you for listening. I hope you have a good week. And we have a what is it tomorrow? There's a Final Fantasy event. So, oh, yeah, probably seven or two. I think we might hear a little bit crisis. There might be a crisis on the horizon. I'm talking about ever crisis. Hmm. Hmm. We'll see. Fingers crossed. If they don't announce seven or two, that's going to be the most toned up things Square Enix has done in a while.
00:40:42
Speaker
to be like, here's the big seven event. We're going to give you news this month. I think they should just I think they should just show a logo. Yeah, I mean, they'd be better than them being like, here's ever crisis. Here's the first soldier updates. Thank you.
00:40:59
Speaker
God, fantasy seven remake was so good. It was cool. I liked it. I liked it other than the ending. I like it. Integrate was so good, too. Integrate was cool. I loved intermission. Intermission was so good, too. Fuck. Oh, I fucking love you. Okay, we're going. Have a good one, everyone. Bye.
