Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. What Does “10 Games to Know Me” Actually Mean?

• Not Just Favorites: The group distinguishes between “best games ever” and the ones that most represent them as individuals.
  • “It's not my top ten. It’s if you walked in an elevator and someone asked, ‘Who is Mike?’ – these are the games you’d mention so they’d get the vibe.” – Blessing (05:46)
• Self-Reflection and Curation Challenges:
  • The process proved surprisingly tricky, requiring both introspection and selectivity.
  • “You think it’s easy, but suddenly you’ve got thirty games, and you’ve gotta start chopping.” – Tim, (04:02)
• Choosing Personal Over Critical:
  • The panel prioritized what best reflected their personalities, not necessarily what’s critically acclaimed.
  • “I know it’s not the best in the franchise, but it means the most to me.” – Tim, (06:18)

2. Debating Each Other’s Lists – Guessing & Stereotyping

• “Let’s do a mini shit list—what games do we think HAVE to be on somebody’s list?” – Tim (07:04)
  • Example: Halo as a guarantee for Tim, Andy, and Mike; Sonic or Mega Man X for certain panelists.
• “There’s almost a self-conscious feeling, like, I can’t have overlap.” – Andy (07:37)

3. How Do You Represent Your “Gaming Holes”?

• Andy describes breaking his identity into categories (e.g., Puzzle Poppy, Platforming Poppy), then picking one standout per category.
  • “What are the games that I love and what’s a game that represents each of those gaping gaming holes?” – Andy (08:58)
• Blessing also leaned into mechanical archetypes or emotional resonances rather than franchises alone.

4. Nostalgia vs. Modern Taste

• Some picks are nostalgia-fueled, others surprisingly recent—no rules, just vibes.
  • “I tried to not overthink representation...sometimes two similar games just both belong.” – Tim (13:28)
  • Some games (e.g., Sonic) become cultural “brands” for cast members, even if those members don’t truly love the games themselves.

5. What “Didn’t” Make the Lists?

• Omission pain: Hard-to-cut classics like Zelda, Metroid, or MGS for some, sports games for others.

If you're a kind of funny member of course you get today's Greg Way. Thank you to our Patreon producers Carl Jacobs, Omega Buster and Delaney the Psalm Twining. Get to it. The topic of the show

[Chris Anka]

real quick. Speaking of Carl Jacobs, text him the other day. He's a big Double Fine fan. Said said do you, do you play keeper? And he responded, I super don't know how but if you need someone. But I know someone. If you needed someone. And I waited for. I was like dog, I'm talking about the new Double Fine game. Are you talking about a goalie? And he said oh my God. Lmao. Yeah 100. I thought you meant goalie.

[Tim Gettys]

I love that. He was just ready, you know what I mean?

[Chris Anka]

I know a guy who could play soccer. I had such an insane past couple days. Couldn't play the game.

[Andy Cortez]

No joke though. I need you to ask him who he knows. He needs somebody for sure.

[Tim Gettys]

That is so freaking funny. Today's topic is the 10 games to know Me. This is a, a trend that's been going around the Internet. You know, whether it's Instagram, Twitter, Tick tock, all those things. You take your profile picture, any picture you have of yourself and you surround it with a bunch of JPEGs of your favorite video games. Maybe not necessarily favorite. This is a, a very interesting prompt here, right? The 10 games to get to know me is is kind of the or to know me is, is what we're working with here. So all of us had to kind of sit and think and it's hard. You might be like oh of course I could. I can come up with that super easily. I, I know me better than anyone, right? And then you start like riding the games out and all of a sudden your 10 games is like 30 games. And you're like, all right, well, if I have to whittle this down, what's that going to look like? Then you get to that final 10 and you're like, am I really not going to put this game. This game in this game? But then you look at the. The ones you have on your list, you're like, am I wrong? Did everyone share that level?

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, Mike was. Mike was like, isn't this just going to be our top 10 on our top 100? And I was like, no, not at all. And he goes, I'm looking at mine. And right now it kind of is. And then I continue to hear Blessing and Mike have these discussions. I'm shocked that they didn't go into the meeting room, into our conference room, just to sit down and talk to it because there was so many Blessing going, what do you think of this, Mike? And Michael, you know what, do another one with a different picture. And Rescue was like, that's a lot of Photoshop, Mike.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Doing that right now.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I like the new mic. So criticisms use a different picture. Yeah. You were deep in it.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Had to bring me back because I was going to just do my top 10. And they said, no, Mike, imagine we got in an elevator and wanted to describe you to someone who doesn't know you. Yeah, let's pick 10 games like that, where they would go, oh, I know Mike now. I know his taste, I know his style, his fun. And so I moved away from my top 10 because I was going to give it to you. I was going to and say, there you go. And we moved into a little more fun. Wacky. If you were to describe Snowbike Mike to a friend, what would they get out?

[Tim Gettys]

I. I like that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It also allows you to kind of

[Tim Gettys]

not have to think necessarily critically about the games. Like you can look at a game, be like, I know it's not the best in the franchise, but it means the most to me, you know, or like there. The elements of it are the things that I enjoy the most.

[Chris Anka]

Right. It's very much personality based. Where I. When we did the Mountain Rushmore stuff, I always talked about how I love kind of covering all bases and not just, you know, I like doing the past, I like doing the present. Kind of like getting an all around approach. And it's like, you know, what are 10 movies that represent you? Dumb and Dumber is not in my top 10 movies of all time, but it's like, that's a 90s comedy. You know what I mean like, you

[Tim Gettys]

know that that's a genre that's important.

[Chris Anka]

Chris Farley that, you know, that sort of stupid that you have to throw those in there to represent that, you know, cover those bases.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. So very, very fun. There's a lot of things that I want to consider before we even look at the list here because I think we all know each other and our gaming taste very well. But before we look at it, I do kind of want to guess some of the like a mini shit list, if you will.

[Andy Cortez]

Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

I was trying to say like what we think might be on or games that we'd be shocked aren't on. I guess that's probably the better way to go. I like that on. On each of our lists and also I want to thank. About what game do you think is on the most of our list? Is there any game that's on all

[Chris Anka]

four of our lists that's really, really good?

[Andy Cortez]

I don't think there is. I think based on how we make these, how we're making these lists for ourselves, I think I know at least I know for me and I assume for y', all there's this almost like self conscious feeling of like I can't have overlap, you know what I mean? There are games where I'm like, I know Tim has this on his. I know Andy for sure has XYZ game on his list. And I don't want to, I don't want to make a list that I know is half of Andy's list.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

There's one game that will be three out of the four. I already know it. Yeah. I can already point to the three of us.

[Tim Gettys]

What is.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And there's one game. There will be a Halo title that is shared between you, me and Andy or Halo as a franchise will at least be shared between us.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I would put bless, but you know, we got to get them on this year.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Later this year we bring you to the greatest. Don't you worry.

[Andy Cortez]

Or next year if we just played like a few more months of Halo Infinite, I'd be there.

[Chris Anka]

So like, okay, predictions wise, where should we start? Because I. When I look, when, when I think of a game that just automatically ties to somebody, I. And it's not like the most obvious thing. I think of something like Jet Force Gemini with blessing. Oh.

[Andy Cortez]

So this comes back to how I went about this list because I had no joke. I had four different drafts. One of them was similar to Micros. Like, all right, here's 10 of my like favorite games. Another one was. And this is the one I'm going with.

[Chris Anka]

This is when I'm in a professional setting. Yeah. And this is when I'm just hanging out, partying.

[Andy Cortez]

The one that I'm going to use for this episode is I divided my gaming, I guess, like, tastes into 10 different categories, essentially. The Puzzle Poppy, the platforming Poppy, the Perry Poppy. All of those I put in one game to represent my gaming hole.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, right.

[Andy Cortez]

I wanted to find every single kind of strand of what are the games that I love and what's a game that represents each of those gaping gaming hole.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, man.

[Tim Gettys]

That said, get in there.

[Andy Cortez]

I have another list that I made that was essentially 10 games to know Me Deeper. Like, I love everybody because everybody knows, like, the games that I love.

[Chris Anka]

Now we're on the fourth date.

[Andy Cortez]

So here's my thing on that 10 games to know Me Deeper thing. That is where Jet Force Gemini lives. Where it's like, that's a game that is like, not my favorite game ever. It's not like a, oh, this is the type of game that I love or whatever, but it's a game that I fuck with. Jet Force Gemini is a game that I fuck with.

[Chris Anka]

I'm ready. Yeah. We're on the sixth date already. We've been dating for three weeks. And now I'm ready for you to get. You're going to, like, know me deeper, right?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah. Sonic Classic. Bless your Sonic Classic with me. That was deep. I want to get.

[Andy Cortez]

Dude, I tweeted a thing and I. So I tweeted that I made like four different lists and I got multiple replies of people being like, where Sonic on the list? He put Sonic on the list. Like, legitimately. This isn't even, like, a bit. This isn't me, like, trying to keep Sonic off the list. I don't have a Sonic game I would put on any of the lists. I love Sonic and this is me. This is not me trying to run from the Sonic.

[Chris Anka]

I don't like it legit.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Legitimately, I don't like it. I would put a Sonic Sonic on

[Andy Cortez]

your list, but which Sonic? I don't love a Sonic that much.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You know what I mean?

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Pick one.

[Andy Cortez]

It's the. It's the weird thing where I'm like, there's not one Sonic game I'd put even as a franchise. I think I over. I'm not gonna say that I oversell it. There's not a Sonic game in my top 50 games. And that's just how it is. Like, that's not like me running from it like, I don't know, it's just not on my list. Tim doesn't believe me.

[Tim Gettys]

I. I believe you in the sense of like a single Sonic game. Like yeah, I, I bless. Trust me, I understand.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

I think the closest analog is Blessing to Son to Gundam. Even though it's not that close. Cuz I don't. I've watched, you know, I watched Gun and Wing back in the day and I, I see it. I mark out like Blessing does when he sees a shadow on a T shirt and goes, that's a sick ass. Whenever I see any gun, I'm like, oh God, mechs are the coolest ever. But like whenever people ask me, what's your favorite Gundam show? I'm like, I don't watch Gundam. I don't. I don't know. Like I, I'm kind of the same where it's like I watched Gun Wing back in the day, but I don't know what. That I don't remember.

[Andy Cortez]

For me, it's that exact thing where there was somebody who replied to me and essentially made a fan art of me and my 10 favorite Sonic games or whatever to try and just meme it. And I looked at it. I didn't reply, but I was like, I've not played half of those games. Yeah, like part of me is a fake Sonic fan. Yeah. Like I genuinely love Sonic, but I'm like, I've not played Sonic Adventures 1

[Tim Gettys]

and 2 and you're doing such good PR right now for your dating profile.

[Chris Anka]

Like this is crazy and like you like the culture.

[Andy Cortez]

But it's that thing where I'm pretty sure I've definitely oversold myself as a Sonic fan. The first like year of Kind of funny where I was all into it. I was trying to find a thing. You know what I mean? I was like, I was like, what's my thing?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And I went there before Bless.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh my God.

[Andy Cortez]

And I went all in on Sonic.

[Chris Anka]

Mike lives there perpetually.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I've been there. You're just shooting from the airplane.

[Andy Cortez]

Stanford.

[Chris Anka]

Stanford Clothing.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Where have I been this weekend?

[Andy Cortez]

I love Sonic, but motherfucker Sonic isn't like my top 50. Like it's not all the entries my top 50. It is.

[Tim Gettys]

It is interesting how much you're focusing on this concept of top and the quality stuff because I guess that what I like about this is games to describe you that doesn't mean the same thing to everybody. So there's a level of quality that I think Bless is requiring for his. That for me, I'm like I'm not at all like, I'm very, very much more vibes based. Not to say that the, like, I'm pretty sure all the games on mine are very high quality, but it's, it's. There's definitely better games. Yeah, most of them I would say.

[Chris Anka]

And I think a lot of mine is also just. It's always kind of clashing again where I try to represent a lot of my past, but then like, you know, I played a lot of sports games in my past and those aren't on my list. And maybe that's because I just don't really go after sports games a whole lot like I used to back in the day. But yeah, for me it's just. I'm just trying to kind of represent a lot of different areas that you know, I, I'm not just gonna go 10 action RPGs or my top 10. Like I think looking at my top 10, there's a couple of omissions and I'm like, I can't believe I didn't put that there but. Cuz maybe it's too basic and general of a recommendation or. I don't know, it's. It's a weird one.

[Tim Gettys]

I really had to sit with myself with a lot of them because like yeah, obviously you want more fun, unique picks, but there are just some games that I'm like, yeah, it is the most obvious thing, but I don't care because it really does represent me and my taste and all of that. But yeah, I, I tried to make the list and not think about representation or to over representation or any of that stuff. And when it got down to it, I had to make some calls that I'm like, all right, maybe this just means I like this thing enough to have two of it. And that means I'm not having two of these other things, you know?

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, it's one of those things where when you play a game and you're like, this is going to be my whole personality for two months. That's where I had to kind of like looking at my list, I'm like, wow, I don't have a Zelda game online. And that's crazy to me because I have a lot of Zelda games in my top 20. But like it's just kind of your. That those are the. You have to sort of put stuff on the chopping block, you know.

[Andy Cortez]

Gotta chop it.

[Chris Anka]

Mike, do you have Man Eater? Damn, no.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Love that

[Chris Anka]

you're a shark.

[Tim Gettys]

Damn.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's like you get me, Andy, what we should have done Is the reverse where we pitch our friends and we put your top tens like I picked.

[Chris Anka]

We can do that.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, we can do that also.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's like, you know, pitch your best friend on a date event. That blessing you've gone to before, you said it was a lot of fun.

[Andy Cortez]

It was a lot of fun.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, we got to do that. But, like, I pitch my friends in their games.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Because, I mean, I feel like. All right, Elden Ring is on Andy's list. Absolutely.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

Is it on Eliza P, though? I don't know.

[Andy Cortez]

There's not lice. P isn't on Andy's list because he's not on Andy's. Because Andy's gonna put Bloodborne before he put Eliza P. And he's not gonna have Bloodborne, too. He's not gonna.

[Chris Anka]

Unless he's got the right thought process. I'm not gonna have three of those.

[Andy Cortez]

He's not gonna have three of those things.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

What about Dark Souls, too? The best of the franchise.

[Andy Cortez]

I mean, how many Souls games?

[Tim Gettys]

I think Andy's putting Bloodborne in Elden Ring.

[Andy Cortez]

Bloodborne and Elden Ring for sure.

[Tim Gettys]

And that goes back to kind of what I'm saying of like. Yeah. Is that over representation? Sure. But Andy, I think, leans that way of like, there is. There has to be over representation of that because, like, Elden Ring and Bloodborne are equally important to you in different ways.

[Andy Cortez]

I think I could guess. I'm gonna go for four.

[Chris Anka]

All right.

[Tim Gettys]

Whose list do you think would be easiest?

[Andy Cortez]

Andy. At least for me, I think Andy's would be easiest.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He's my best friend. I can guess.

[Andy Cortez]

Wait, should me and Mike make this a competition?

[Chris Anka]

Who can guess more than think about them a lot?

[Tim Gettys]

I like that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay, let's do that. Competition.

[Tim Gettys]

Competition between Bless and Mike.

[Andy Cortez]

No, I've only had list. Oh, you have already seen it?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Well, I had to look at it. Okay, you got cool photo.

[Chris Anka]

He didn't even. He didn't even know that I posted it. And he was like, you posted on Social. And everybody's like, mike, how the didn't you know? And I assumed that he blocked me because he was mad at me.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, what's funny is I forgot you even posted your list. I forgot that I saw the games on there, but I don't. But I don't remember any of the games that are on his list.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay, well, let's go back and forth.

[Andy Cortez]

You any Ellen Ring?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, that's a good one. Bloodboard, Liza P. We already ruined the

[Andy Cortez]

back and forth, by the way. I already Ruined it. Elden Ring, Bloodborne Outer Wilds is going to be on his list. Hyper Light Drifter. At least those four games.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, yeah, of course. Of course he me on that other one, though.

[Chris Anka]

Which one?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'll never forgive you.

[Chris Anka]

Which one?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Hyper Light Breaker.

[Andy Cortez]

If I'm going for a fifth one, I don't know which it will be, but either Overwatch and Valorant, not both.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, either Overwatch or Valorant, but not, I think, Overwatch.

[Tim Gettys]

And I know for a fact Mega Man X. Yeah, yeah.

[Chris Anka]

These are all great game guesses. Roger. Dude. Roger. Dude. I thought we hired from within the community. Don't y' all watch the content? Roger. Didn't know I would love Mega Man X. Unbelievable.

[Andy Cortez]

What's Tim's?

[Tim Gettys]

I think Mike's is the least predictable. I. I would have thought you guys would say mine's the most predictable because I feel like there's like.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I don't think Tim's got a Halo. He's got a Mario.

[Andy Cortez]

Does he have a Halo?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, he's got a Halo.

[Andy Cortez]

Okay.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He's got a Halo.

[Chris Anka]

He's got a Halo. He has Super Mario 64.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Got a Mario.

[Chris Anka]

He has Super Smash Bros. Either Melee.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I like that. He's got a Tony Hawk.

[Chris Anka]

He has a Tony Hawk for sure.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Tony Hawk.

[Tim Gettys]

Yes.

[Andy Cortez]

Prince of Persia. The last three.

[Chris Anka]

No, Tony Hawk three.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, okay.

[Andy Cortez]

Prince of Pers. The last crown is on there for sure.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's a. Persia's good.

[Chris Anka]

No. Sansa Time.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, he's probably got Hades. He's probably got Hades on there.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, I don't know.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He really.

[Chris Anka]

No, but he likes. He loves Hades. I don't know if, like, that's what he would say this. Like. I don't know if that's how he would describe himself to people.

[Tim Gettys]

Right.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Here's my three Pointer Pokemon. Soul Silver.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, he's got a Pokemon on there for sure. He's got a Pokemon.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah. What is a good one?

[Andy Cortez]

What do they call the gold one?

[Tim Gettys]

Hard.

[Chris Anka]

Gold.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Gold.

[Andy Cortez]

Silver. Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He's got a final fan.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He's got a Final Fantasy on there for sure.

[Andy Cortez]

Seven REM.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, no, he's 10.

[Andy Cortez]

You're right. It's 10.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You think so? I think it's eight or nine.

[Chris Anka]

It's 10. Because when I was drawing the games cast characters in the intro, he was like, draw me as Titus.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Ah, that's cool.

[Chris Anka]

I was like, all right, Big T.

[Andy Cortez]

Yoshi's island, by the way. Yoshi's island, for sure.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, that's a good one.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, I would have gone Yoshi's Willy World.

[Andy Cortez]

Life is saying words now.

[Chris Anka]

I would have gone with Kirby's Yarn Adventure or whatever the game's called.

[Tim Gettys]

Epic Yarn.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Crash Bandicoot. Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

But is it. Is it gonna be Crash Team Racing the Cooter?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, it won't be.

[Andy Cortez]

You don't think it'll be team racing?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, no. It'll be like he lost car racing.

[Tim Gettys]

I'm telling you right now. It's Crashing racing.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah. Wow. Whoa.

[Tim Gettys]

I know him.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

There's a twist.

[Tim Gettys]

I know this twist.

[Andy Cortez]

I know this guy.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

Okay.

[Chris Anka]

Damn.

[Andy Cortez]

I like Mike.

[Chris Anka]

Let's see. We have a Super chat from JB Bonifacio who says Final Fantasy 7. This is for Tim. Says Expedition 33. Metal Gear Solid DDR. Or maybe that's your list.

[Tim Gettys]

I think that's just their list.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, but a lot of these there

[Tim Gettys]

was some crossover for.

[Andy Cortez]

Say, this looks like a Tim list. Wipeout Hong Kong Country, Luminesce, Wipe out xl.

[Tim Gettys]

There's. Damn, you got taste.

[Chris Anka]

How about that Luminous demo? Jesus.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, my fuck.

[Chris Anka]

Holy shit.

[Andy Cortez]

Jesus. Mike's going to have.

[Tim Gettys]

I want to let y' all know, y' all crushed it, but you got Mike.

[Chris Anka]

Final Fantasy 10.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, God, I hope so.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Personality. Now you know.

[Chris Anka]

He's got Final Fantasy 10. He's got fall guys.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, that's good.

[Chris Anka]

NBA Street.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's good.

[Andy Cortez]

Gonna be on there.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Breaker.

[Tim Gettys]

One of the backyard sports things.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, yeah. Backyard.

[Tim Gettys]

To be there. Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I want Coach Mike.

[Chris Anka]

He looks like Coach Mike right now. Mike, you. You look like you're.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's why I'm taking all these campus tours. They're offering me coaching jobs.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm trying to get that sweet coaching job where they hire me. They fire me. Two years later, I get the full paycheck.

[Andy Cortez]

Who were you before you were hired here? Because I'm trying to think of like my history as a gamer.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I mean, it's pretty simple.

[Andy Cortez]

And I can only think of things

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

that you've played since we went through Kevin A sex. Brought up my streaming stats. What's my number one most streamed game? Andy. No, no, you know.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, number one most.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, number one fall guys. Number two with 300 plus hours.

[Andy Cortez]

Warzone.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

What's.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, warzone? Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

900 hours. Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's nine months of kind of funny content. Y stream on average about 150 to 124 hours a month. That's nine months of kind of funny.

[Chris Anka]

I mean, it was every day during kind of funny. It was going home or not going home, but just staying home during the pandemic. Okay, good calls with the backyard sports.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, Coach Mike, I would also.

[Andy Cortez]

I don't think he's gonna have them on course.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Girls, don't forget about it.

[Tim Gettys]

Do you know how many shirts he owns with those characters on it?

[Andy Cortez]

But nobody.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Here's the thing.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Nobody loves backyard. Backyard sports that much does.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

They're making an. An.

[Andy Cortez]

That much.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

They're making an animated show.

[Andy Cortez]

They are pretty exciting. Playing Keisha Phillips.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's like she's definitely playing Keisha Phillips.

[Andy Cortez]

Well, they announced it. Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Okay.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, she's the main character. Think recess meets backyard.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's how I put those two together.

[Chris Anka]

That's going to be a good combo.

[Tim Gettys]

Which Halo is it? Oh, it's two. Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's the greatest.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Two of all time.

[Andy Cortez]

Greatest.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, I would say two. I would say. Okay,

[Andy Cortez]

maybe. I guess backyard switch might make sense.

[Chris Anka]

Now.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Remember, I would say Matt, now you have to picture this because I changed up. It's not my top 10. They're not my favorites. This is if you walked into an elevator, people like, oh, tell me about that Mike guy. These are the tens that you would shoot off at them. I Legit games to describe Mike's gaming.

[Andy Cortez]

It's crazy how clearly I can see Tim and Andy's list. I look at Mike and it's like I'm trying to read a mind that's like, oh, yeah, you know, you have a car. You put a counter.

[Chris Anka]

It's. It's. It's Professor X trying to read some. But they got the helmet on there. They got the magneto helmet blocking it. I mean, well, that goes for a lot of his top tens of the year as well. They're always very keeping you guessing. Yeah, that's the point of it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You guys want one? Get ready.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, he's gonna have Fire Emblem 3 on there. Three houses.

[Tim Gettys]

All right, let's. Should we get into it?

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, let's do it.

[Tim Gettys]

I think we should. After a word from our sponsor, this episode's brought to you by Arc Raiders, a multiplayer extraction adventure game where most of humanity shelters underground.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

On December 12, Disney invites you to

[Tim Gettys]

go behind the scenes with Taylor Swift

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

in an exclusive six episode docuseries.

[Depop/Starbucks Advertiser]

I wanted to give something to the fans that they didn't expect. The only thing left is to close

[Tim Gettys]

the book, the end of an era

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

and don't miss Taylor Swift. The Eras Tour, the final show featuring

[Tim Gettys]

for the first time, the Tortured poets department.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Streaming December 12th only on Disney Plus.

[Tim Gettys]

All right.

[Andy Cortez]

You guys didn't guess mine, by the way, weirdly, except for the Sonic part, right?

[Chris Anka]

Why did I say willy Willy?

[Tim Gettys]

Let's. Let's do some quick blessings.

[Chris Anka]

Okay?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay. Okay, okay.

[Chris Anka]

So we said the Jet Force. That's to get to learn. Bless. Deeper.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

That's not the surface one.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. This is first. There's layers.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Is this first day bless or is this Perry Poppy Puzzle?

[Andy Cortez]

It's everything. I. I think it's a very representative. But it's a representative Street Fighter.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

There's a fighting game on there.

[Tim Gettys]

100. Not a street Fighter. It's Tekken.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Tekken.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Nice.

[Tim Gettys]

He's cool.

[Chris Anka]

Cool leopard head.

[Tim Gettys]

I mean, maybe Tekken.

[Chris Anka]

And then I'm gonna throw Sekiro.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

There's a Zelda.

[Tim Gettys]

Mario 64 has to be there.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Mario or Zelda. There's got to be some sort of like Mario 64.

[Chris Anka]

Breath of the Wild.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, I like Pokemon, but it's going to be one of the Og Pokemon. I don't know Og Pokemon. No, no, I don't think so.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Like, I appreciate. I know you appreciate it, but no,

[Chris Anka]

no, I've never heard Blessing speak passionately. A whole lot Pokemon.

[Tim Gettys]

I've done a lot of.

[Andy Cortez]

Me and Tim have done so many.

[Chris Anka]

You did me. You do mention Mystery Dungeon a lot.

[Tim Gettys]

I think it's gonna be red and blue, like.

[Chris Anka]

Okay, okay.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

How about a gta? Would we get

[Chris Anka]

this level?

[Andy Cortez]

No.

[Chris Anka]

San Andreas.

[Tim Gettys]

I think five.

[Chris Anka]

Whenever we talk about the trilogy, he's always like, sandra's is way better than Vice City. I was like, no, it's not Mist

[Tim Gettys]

Never played miss, but GTA online. That. That's. That's the factor there. That might push it over the edge because. Yeah, San Andreas timeline wise. And I do think that these lists tend to go a little bit more nostalgic.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, you got a lot of PlayStation first party games on this. Who knows?

[Tim Gettys]

I doubt it.

[Chris Anka]

He definitely does. Spider Man. Miles Morales.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That guy. A Jack and Dexter.

[Chris Anka]

Dexter.

[Andy Cortez]

I played that for the first time earlier this year.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay, okay.

[Chris Anka]

Watch that TV show Dexter.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, man. Young Dexter, too. I love Young Sheldon.

[Andy Cortez]

No, I didn't watch that one. I didn't watch that one.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, somebody mentioned something on stream yesterday that may be a spoiler for me because they brought up a name. He was like, damn, that is a good call. Dark Cloud.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Would you dare put Brink on it? No.

[Tim Gettys]

Burnout. Burnout three.

[Andy Cortez]

Dark Cloud would be one that I would put on the game. Snow Me Deeper One. Okay. That'd be in the Jeff for Gemini conversation of, like, I. With this. It's not, like, representative, but with it. Yeah, Deep Cut.

[Tim Gettys]

NBA Street, Volume 2.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, he'll have NBA street on that. That'll be shared. That'll be a shared one. Can you believe that announcement today?

[Andy Cortez]

I can't believe it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's right. They should have put. They reminisce over top of that.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, that would have come.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay. Yeah. You want to nail this? Just put that.

[Andy Cortez]

I mean, put Bobby.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No.

[Andy Cortez]

Garcia.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Can you believe that?

[Tim Gettys]

Dude, it's crazy. Like, oh, this is what we've been waiting for.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Is this.

[Tim Gettys]

I don't know. Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah. It just doesn't look quite right. But we're gonna cross our fingers.

[Chris Anka]

How many did we name? We named, like, eight or nine or something like that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Maybe wrestling. Will they have a wrestling game?

[Andy Cortez]

No, I don't.

[Tim Gettys]

No.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

But will anyone at this table have a wrestling.

[Tim Gettys]

No.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay.

[Chris Anka]

No. Damn.

[Tim Gettys]

Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

If I make a fifth list, maybe

[Tim Gettys]

deeper is like, actually, so. Yeah, we might need to do that.

[Andy Cortez]

I. I have it. I mean, I have it pulled. I have it in the assets folder.

[Tim Gettys]

So I said let's save that because, like, that. That's a potentially a good topic, depending on how this goes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Tim Gettys]

All right, let's get into it. Who should we start with?

[Chris Anka]

You can start with. Okay, we start with Tim.

[Tim Gettys]

Let's start with me. Okay, let's start with Tim because y'.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

All.

[Tim Gettys]

Y' all guessed most of the games on this.

[Chris Anka]

I was so ready for dinner. Greg was coming out. I really thought Greg was coming out.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You gotta get to know each other. But not me.

[Tim Gettys]

So here we go. We are blocking some of them, but there we go.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Yeah. So y' all nailed a lot of these. Mario 64, Final Fantasy 10, Pokemon Soul Silver, Tony Hawk 1 and 2 Remake. Andy like that. That's where I'm going.

[Andy Cortez]

I should have guessed Sonic Mania as well.

[Tim Gettys]

And we got Prince of Persia, Lost Crown, which Sands of Time would have been there, but Lost Crown has dethroned it in every way possible. And also Lost Crown kind of helped me because it allowed me to not have a Metroid here because I feel like ever made. Then we have Yoshi's Island. Of course, y' all know that one as well.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Ultimate Marvel versus Capcom.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

And. And then, yeah, the ones you didn't say were Marvel versus Capcom. And I had to kind of go back and forth between one and two because I do think I definitely put way more hours into two. And I love the roster of that game so much, but the art style and music and just Overall vibes of NBC1, I. That to me, I'm like, yeah, I want to be known that way.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Like that's.

[Tim Gettys]

That's who I am. And then, yeah, Star Fox 64 is definitely one that I. I'm just passionately love.

[Chris Anka]

That changed a lot.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, the, the voice acting, the, like to this day. And it's all time and place of being a little kid playing this game, like first Rumble Pack game, like for some we felt vibrations in a game like that was crazy. But the presentation of it and the voice acting and the cinematic nature of it all, it was the most immersive experience ever. Like, it felt like I was playing Star wars, like I was in Star wars, you know, And I just. I love the characters and world and I hope we get another good one one day. And I don't think we will.

[Chris Anka]

There weren't a whole lot of games that unlocked like certain things in my imagination for me. Like Starbucks 64 were like, Man, I just started creating all sorts of like side care. I was totally so into that world.

[Tim Gettys]

And the. The R Wing, right? It's like obviously the X Wings, the dopest ship design in history, but the R Wing might be a close second. And then, yeah, Sonic Mania was one for me that I had. I thought of in the shower this morning where I was like, I actually need a Sonic game. Like, I have to have one. And it was between Sonic 2, which is definitely the more old school nostalgia pick. But the reality is Sonic Mania, with what it did of how it updated the old school retro stuff, made it widescreen, made it hd, the T. Lope soundtrack. Like, just everything that Sonic Mania is. I'm like, that's what I love about video games. So it had to make the cut. But that meant that Halo Combat Evolved at the boots, NBA Street Volume 2, wow. And Crash Team Racing. Damn. Didn't make the cut, but they were all right there.

[Andy Cortez]

So you're putting. I wouldn't. I guess the one that surprises me is Marvel versus Capcom. Only because I would have expected those over Marvel versus Capcom for you.

[Tim Gettys]

I love Marvel versus Capcom, man.

[Andy Cortez]

Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

I'm not good at it, but I love that game. I love just the vibes of it are just so immaculate. And whether that was arcade or playing it on PlayStation or whatever, it's like, yeah, marvelous. Capcom. What you got to remember is that this is the game that taught me about Marvel, and I love Marvel. Like, I learned about Thanos because of Marvel versus Capcom. You know what I mean? Like, so that that franchise and games mean a lot to me.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's interesting. It feels like we got eight out of the 10 and like those top two that Marvel versus Capcom and Star Fox would be the ones that we would boot out from the outside and replace it with those three that you just brought up. Interesting. We were close, boys.

[Chris Anka]

Close.

[Andy Cortez]

Close.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Very close. Very close.

[Tim Gettys]

Then go to Andy.

[Andy Cortez]

I do want to shout out the fact too. People in chat were like, what is this format?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

The.

[Andy Cortez]

This is a trend that was from Instagram stories, and so that's why you're seeing these images of this vertical. So I'm sure we're going to post these to Instagram afterwards.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, they're supposed to look kind of janky. Yeah, there we go, Andy. Looking hot.

[Chris Anka]

Here's my list. This is when I dyed my hair white for John Hammond and I inhaled a lot of fumes from the silver hairspray.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, I would have got. I got. Yeah, go for it.

[Chris Anka]

So starting at the top, we got Bloodborne, the game that changed it all for me in the modern era. You know, we talk about Mike, like the. You know, the. After the. After the merger in NFL and stuff. Like after the ABA and NBA merging, we talk about the modern era. Bloodboard for me is like really the line in the sand for this is going to dictate a lot of what you are into now. And yeah, Bloodborne's at the top for me, surprisingly. No Zeldas in my list neither. Despite a lot of Zeldas. Like, in my top games of all time, I have Halo Combat Evolved there.

[Tim Gettys]

Hell, yeah.

[Chris Anka]

That's the first one that kind of just got me going into multiplayer games. And Obviously we had GoldenEye and all that back in the day, but Halo was really the. The big formative 1. Mass Effect 2.

[Tim Gettys]

I can't believe we didn't say that for you. Yeah, that was a mess.

[Andy Cortez]

That's such an obvious one.

[Chris Anka]

The. I mean. Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And Seven Day right around the corner

[Chris Anka]

and so what are we gonna get?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Come on.

[Chris Anka]

It's canceled. Yay. Yeah. I mean, the best NPCs of all time and just my favorite franchise probably of all time. Blessed. Nailed it with the either Overwatch or Valorant and not both. Overwatch is the one. Even though I haven't played it in a long time, it's still the one that I would say is like the modern multiplayer game that really kind of got me into that style. And also I would say maybe the only one that I played back in the day on controller. And then when I started playing keyboard mouse, like still played it. And that was, you know, it lasted over different eras for me.

[Tim Gettys]

So you say, like, Bless. Nailed it with. It was between Overwatch and Valorant. Did you go through that, that internal struggle?

[Chris Anka]

No, not really. It wasn't too much of a struggle. Like, as much as many hours as I have in Valorant, I just think it's also like a little too modern. And I. I probably have like five times the amount of hours in Overwatch that I do in Valorant. Mega Man X is probably the. The number one game that I would have on this list of just like a game.

[Tim Gettys]

One game could describe Andy. I would go, mega Man.

[Chris Anka]

It's the. It's shaped my love for pixel art and that style of. Of animation. It made me realize that I love new things. And whenever Mega man puts on a new suit and it's a new color, I go, oh. I get all excited because it's just. It's a different thing. And then I always. I always compare that to whenever people go like, oh, you. The UI change on the Instagram app or the Twitter. And I was like, I love that. Like, I love when, like, things would change. And I just always have loved color variants since Mega Man X. And it kind of informed a lot of that. The. The eight bit music, the chip tunes, all of that stuff. Like, it taught me how to play guitar. I would learn how to. I would download the tabs and learn how to harmonize guitars. And that's what was teaching me. Like, this is what. Like this is how metal bands sound that way and how their Sounds are doing that because Mega man was doing a lot of that in their music.

[Tim Gettys]

I love you choosing Mega Man X is the one game. Bless. Mike, I challenge you. Think about it. What is the one for you guys? By the end of the episode, we'll get there.

[Chris Anka]

Metal Gear Solid rocks. I mean, what can you say about metal?

[Tim Gettys]

Metal Gear Solid was a tough one for me because that is also in that list of like in the contention and it kind of was in there a couple times. Like I had the JPEG and I had to remove it because my big question was, which one am I putting? Because my heart of hearts, it's metal gear solid 4. I love force so much and it speaks to me so loudly. But I wanted to put one because I feel like it's the. What one has going on is my number one. But because I had that debate, I think it brought both of them down.

[Chris Anka]

The first time I ever downloaded and printed out GameFAQs lore sheets to just read about the story and just being in middle school and be like, man, this is crazy. Like, who could come up with this stuff? Hyper Light Drifter is kind of like my modern day Mega Man X. Visually, sonically, it's just like, it's just pure vibes. Awesome dashing and great action. Awesome boss fights with great telegraphed boss patterns. Just an awesome video game. Celeste is kind of like the dark horse for me.

[Tim Gettys]

I would have never picked that for you.

[Chris Anka]

It's. It's a game that the more and more I think of it, I'm like, I think this is probably my favorite indie game of all time. The more and more I think of just my experience with it, what it's doing, story wise. And honestly, like, I just think it may be my favorite soundtrack of all time too. Like, anytime it pops up in my pre stream, you know, playlist, I have to just like mute my mic and go full volume because Lena Rain just dominated that soundtrack.

[Tim Gettys]

And it's platform perfection. Yeah, they got the, the difficulty curve down so, so well and the abilities that they add are all fun and feel fresh and unique. And I love the kind of single screen format of Try and Try and Try Again, but there's not the run back at all. It's just right back into it. Yeah, what a game.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, I just, I just love everything it's doing story wise. Also, it's so impactful and emotional.

[Andy Cortez]

I was thinking about Celeste this morning because I've been listening to a podcast series from Dissect Podcast and they've been doing this last album Standing thing where they been pitting albums from the 21st century against each other. And, like, what they've been doing is pairing, like, all right, take care. And My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy came out around the same time. They have similar things going on, so we're going to pair them against each other. I was thinking about, like, if I was to do that for games, what would I do? And I was thinking through the best games that have come out in the 21st century. And Hades came to mind. And I was trying to think of, like, all right, what's another indie game that I'll pit against Hades if I'm doing, like, a best game of the 21st century conversation. Soon as Celeste came to mind, I was like, oh, that's the one. Celeste is like the other for me. This 21st century of indie games, I guess just indie games in general, right?

[Chris Anka]

Like, those are the mountain.

[Andy Cortez]

Hades and Celeste are the Mount Rushmores, for sure.

[Chris Anka]

Pokemon Yellow. It was so huge.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Come on. Like, you followed you, dude.

[Chris Anka]

I mean, like, I. I loved Pokemon Red back in the day. Like, that's the one that I had. And I. But it was. It was. It was having the Game Boy color with that and having the yellow cartridge and just like, what a. What a. Just one of those memories that is so, like, highly encapsulated that I can remember every detail about that Christmas. And I don't remember a whole lot else about my past, but it's like that thing.

[Tim Gettys]

I definitely remember Jesse and James in it. Dude, look how cool Pikachu looks on the COVID Like, damn, let's go back to that.

[Chris Anka]

It was so badass. But also, that was kind of around after watching the TV show and going, oh, these are actually characters too. And now you're kind of seeing the character stuff brought to light. It's like, oh, this. I'm just the dude from the carrot from the TV show now. Awesome. And then, yeah, Elden Ring. I had to have two, but not three. Yeah, like, you all know it. It's like I, you know, some. I saw some comments going like, damn, I'm surprised you have don't have Liza P. Or Outer Wilds. That's one that bless guests. That is not on my list either. I. I don't like as much as I love Outer Wilds and think it's like one of the best gaming experiences ever. I don't think it's something that describes me or, like, that I could really say, like, this is personality or whatever.

[Tim Gettys]

That's how I feel about Breath of the Wild.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

Where I'm just like, yeah, it's probably. Probably top three best games of all time for me. But I'm like, it doesn't describe me.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah. So, yeah, that's my list. My top 10. Y' all did great.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's good.

[Andy Cortez]

It sucks that Overwatch shut down five years ago and just never, you know, it never kept going.

[Chris Anka]

It was on my. Overwatch 2 is on my good.

[Tim Gettys]

I want to get to Bless.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, no, let's save Bless. Because he's gonna be. He's gonna be a good one. Let's save the job.

[Andy Cortez]

I feel like, you know, it saved you for last.

[Tim Gettys]

Chaotic.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Nobody knows. Nobody knows us on yours.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We got the good. Good. You know.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Fear I have about Bless. His list is since he has multiple lists, it might spread things out guessing. But let's get Blesses up.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

All right.

[Tim Gettys]

Love the picture.

[Andy Cortez]

Yes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We approved this photo yesterday.

[Andy Cortez]

Mike approved of this photo. So I think quite a few of these guys guessed. Oh, man.

[Tim Gettys]

I guess Shadow.

[Andy Cortez]

I mean, come on.

[Tim Gettys]

Come on. That's really. Come on. Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, he mentioned inscription yesterday. I totally forgot that.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. So a lot of what I did with my list was look at the diff. Like, I mentioned, right? Different games that kind of fulfill, like, the different, I guess, archetypes of gamer that I am. So starting with Super Mario 64, that kind of represents, like, the platforming side of me, right? Like, and for me, that does encompass the DK64s, the sonics, right. Like, even the Celeste of the world, the 2D platformers as well. Like, I love platformers. Me and Tim, of course, had plenty of shitless episode talking about the top tens and all that, but it all comes back to Mario 64 for me. One, because that was my first video game ever. But then also, it's still probably my favorite, if not, I guess, top two or top three video game of all time. I think that game still holds up. And this was. It was a close race between this in DK64. I went Mario 64 for how much better Mario 64 is overall, but then also for, like, execution of the platforming. You know what I mean? DK64 is way more of a collective on. And like. Like, Collectathon isn't necessarily what brings me to the genre. I. It worked for me as a kid for DK64, which is why I vibe with it so much. But Mario 64, I think, has the perfect balance of great level design, great execution on the platforming, and I think encompasses everything that I love about a 3D platformer.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah. As often we talk about Donktober and DK64 being so much of Yalls personalities, I. It wasn't a question for me that Super Mario 64 was the choice. Yeah, I've. That did. I mean, y', all. You and Tim Speed ran it. You know that we're like, yeah, you have such a passion for it.

[Andy Cortez]

We gotta run that.

[Tim Gettys]

I do.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, we do.

[Tim Gettys]

I do think Barrett would probably have DK64 on his, though, I think.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, yeah, probably. Next one I got is Portal 2. This is a tough one again. Like, one of the conversations I was having with Mike yesterday was about the branches, right? Like, what game kind of leads you into the different branches? And one of the things for me is the puzzle Poppy, right? And so, like, Portal 2 for me was the. The beginning of that. Like, I'm Pretty sure Portal 2 was the shifting of my brain into. Oh, wait, I'm into this. Like, I love being in these puzzle rooms and trying to figure out, like, how the portal leads to this next thing. And that, for me, leads into me loving games like the Witness or Blueprints or Manifold Garden or Superliminal or like, Anti Chamber or even Outer Wilds, which is another battle for me, but similar to you, I think Portal 2 is more representative of the type of puzzle game that I love more than Outer Wilds, even though Outer Wilds is, like, I think overall, as an experience is so special. Portal 2 for me is, like, that's where it began, and that is, like, the best crystallization of what it is for me that I love. I'm gonna jump down to Shadow Colossus, because for me, that's Puzzle Poppy Part two in the sense of, like, that being a puzzle game, but all. But in a way more different narrative sense. Right. Like, for me, Shadow Colossus kind of feeds into games like Eco, obviously, that I love, Last Guardian that I love. But then also things like the Pathless, even Keeper that just came out. Like, there are parts of Keeper where I'm like, man, the same things I love about Shadow are what I love about this game. And that even goes to games like Elden Ring and fromsoft stuff when we talk about how they world build in those games, how they design the world, the visual language. I know Miyazaki has talked before about how much he's influenced by games like ico, right. And Shadow Colossus for me was, like, at that age, the opening of my mind of, wow, video games can be something that's. That that's truly special. I've talked, I've told the story before about how I had borrowed Shadow Colossus and Metal Gear Solid three from my friend Addison at the same time and played them back to back. And it was a bless. It was a changing of like my video game world that went from me playing games like Mario obviously, which I still love Mario. Right. But that was like the evolution of playing the Mario's of the world now being like, oh shit. Video games are art, Video games are story, video games are XYZ thing.

[Chris Anka]

I want to interrupt real quick.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Remember the. There was a episode of Game Showdown recently where the question was, what are the best five? Name the best five remakes in the last like five years. And all of us are so embarrassed when none of us said Resident Evil 4 Remake because we just forgot it. That's how I feel about Shadow the Colossus. I'm so embarrassed we didn't think of that.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, I know.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, for my list.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, it's like it's the most. Yeah, I mean that's Mass Effect too for you.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. So speaking of Elden Ring, which I brought up in the Shadow Colossus conversation, Sekiro, for me, that encompasses the Perry Poppy in me and this stuff. So the original draft of this list I showed Barret and I did have a fighting game on here. I had soul calibur 2 on here. Barrett looked at it and he was like, I don't associate you that strongly with Soul Calibur 2. And I thought about it, I was like, I guess I could replace it with Tekken. But then I thought about it further and I feel like Sekiro weirdly enough encompasses both like I think the souls action game side of me and then also just the fighting game side of me. It's the side of me that just loves timing and pairing and getting good at a thing and skill and action. Sekiro is the best one of those that I've ever played.

[Chris Anka]

Thrill of the Dance.

[Andy Cortez]

Thrill of the Dance.

[Tim Gettys]

The Tekken conversation is interesting because that we were kind of going back and forth. I expect a Tekken would be on the list. But I was torn because I feel like the answer would have just been Tekken 8 because it's the newest one. But what is your Tekken?

[Andy Cortez]

I. I mean now it's Tekken 8.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

I think before Tekken 8, honestly, it's always the newest Tekken to come out.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

If I'm being real.

[Andy Cortez]

Tekken 6 was the one I. I came in on and Then I also owned Tekken Tag tournament back in the day for PS2. But yeah, since ever since Tekken 6 I just bought every new Tekken and like got obsessed with it. And so overall Tekken, like if I'm talking about a traditional fighting game, I don't know if I have one traditional fighting game that I'm like, this is the one I was thinking about, even Smash Brothers. But to put there, even though that's kind of different. But I think, yeah, Sekiro kind of encompasses all that for me.

[Chris Anka]

I was so close to having Sifu on my list as well.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

I mean I thought about it.

[Andy Cortez]

I think I talked to Tim about that too. Yeah, Sifu almost had, almost had the spot over second Fallout 3 for me, that's like the open world RPG side of me. It was between Fallout 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. But I think Fallout 3 was the one that opened me up more into the world of like open world RPGs and Western RPGs. And I think represents everything that I love about that genre. The conversations, the dialogue trees, how weird and goofy that you can make a world. Even it being a first person shooter western rpg. It's kind of a weird niche of games that I love that are in that form. But it is this cyberpunk deus ex. Right. Like outer worlds that I'm playing. There's something about this specific form of Western RPG that really resonates with me. And Fallout 3 was the start of it.

[Tim Gettys]

Million dollars for me. I would have never put Fallout 300.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Really?

[Chris Anka]

Oh, I would have put a bethet like now that I think of it, you, you have a lot of love for Bethesda and a lot of love for Fallout.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He always talks, he talks a lot about Fallout.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, I, I, I think it's the thing where a new Fallout game just hasn't come out in the last.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Maybe since I joined here, you know, and Fallout TV show, obviously I love and talked all about moving on Pokemon Blue, how to get a jrpg. And also Pokemon Blue represents so much. It was between this and one of the Personas. But I went with Pokemon Blue just because it represents a lot more. As far as, you know, if I'm talking about Shadow and MGS as being this eye opening moment for me of what video games can be. I think Pokemon as a kid was the thing that was like, oh, video games can live and breathe outside of the game itself because I love the anime, I loved the Pokemon cards at school and seeing what other kids had it was playing the spinoffs being Pokemon Puzzle League on N64 and Pokemon Stadium. And Pokemon Blue was the game where I remember being. It's probably like six or seven years old. And I had a cousin that had Pokemon Blue and he handed me his game Game Boy because we're hanging out in his house. And he was like, ah, here's this as a distraction or whatever. And he pointed at the character and he was like, oh, that's you. And I was like, what do you mean? He's like, oh, this is a new game. I named it Blessing. And I was like, wait, that's me. And I never played a game before that had a character that you could name yourself that like, that's literally you type thing. And as a kid, that fucking blew my mind. And Pokemon, it's. It's the thing too, where I know Pokemon Gold could probably be the argument for being like the best one. Pokemon Blue is just the biggest nostalgia pick for me. Yeah, Hitman World of Assassination is my pick for like, stealth slash immersive sim games. It was between this and like Metal Gear and Deus Ex. But Hitman, I think, for me is the best as far as what it does mechanically. It's also like my old reliable. Like, I don't go back and just randomly play mgs. I do go back and just randomly randomly play Hitman because I think the stealth gameplay is just so solid. And I love the idea of being able to change different characters and do all this stuff. Right. And then. Is that everything? I think that's. Oh, wait, no, someone.

[Tim Gettys]

Inscription.

[Andy Cortez]

Inscription, yeah, inscription. Last question.

[Tim Gettys]

And I love that for you. I love inscriptions here.

[Andy Cortez]

Yes. Inscription is the meeting of, like, roguelike and card game. And like, obviously when I played Inscription, that ship blew my mind. And so it kind of encompasses that world. And then the Last of Us is a pick for, I think if I'm talking about my journey through video games, Last of Us is a very great one for, I think, where it took me as far as video game stories and narratives. I try to find like a good story game. Life is Strange was originally on here, but I think Last of Us is almost a better representation of like, that was a moment, obviously, it was a moment for the gaming world. It was also a moment for me as well where, like, playing that game, being in this post apocalyptic world where everything's up, but there's still a story about humanity and how, you know, how relationships can bring us together in this world. For me, that was such a beautiful thing. And that's a Game that I go back and play all the time.

[Chris Anka]

So just seeing acting.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Performances.

[Chris Anka]

We've seen a lot of acting before and, you know, sometimes it's all. It may be a little subpar in some cases, but yeah, that was amazing.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Giraffes.

[Andy Cortez]

That's my list.

[Tim Gettys]

I do love that across all of our lists so far, there are a couple, like, newer games. You know, it's not all just old school nostalgia plays. Like having Sekiro and inscription. Oh, yeah, that's cool. You know.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. I forgot to mention Zelda Breath of the wild. That's my 10th pick here.

[Chris Anka]

Oh.

[Andy Cortez]

Which is.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

But yeah, like my favorite game of all time as I was putting together this list, you know, or the original. The most original version really had it be like a rigid. All right, Perry. Poppy puzzle. Poppy, yada yada, Zelda Breath of the Wild for me encompasses all of it. It is the everything game for me. I love the puzzles in Breath of the Wild. I love the open world exploration of Breath of the Wild. I love the art style. I love the. Even the story and the world and all this stuff, how it comes together. The post apocalyptic vibe, which I didn't talk about as much as me being like, I really love post apocalyptic worlds in video games, which is probably reflective in some of these games here. Zelda Breath of Wild does it all and. Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

So is that your one?

[Andy Cortez]

That's my one. That's my. That's my easy one. Zelda Breath of Wild.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Have you watched Silo yet on hbo?

[Andy Cortez]

No.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You should watch.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. Okay, good.

[Tim Gettys]

You'd love that, Ferguson.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Now, apple. Okay, can we really stop? Bring back up blessings. So good looking. Okay. Look at the quality. Where's Roger? Okay, he's got drop shadows. How did he get the game underneath the shoe, Andy? Roger hasn't taught me that yet. You know what I mean? I said, roger, come here. He's got drop shadows. It's underneath this shoe. It's above his hair. Below his hair. Roger didn't teach me any of this.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah. The games are everywhere. Oh, you could have the games everywhere.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm so uptight.

[Chris Anka]

It's not that hard.

[Andy Cortez]

I can teach you.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We're gonna talk about it.

[Tim Gettys]

Are we ready for Mike's?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, but I. I got a little we're gonna have some fun primer. So here's the primer. I'm gonna need you all to come with me on a little journey. Okay, so here's how this is gonna go. We talked about this. I didn't want to do my top 10. Because then I would give it all away. So this is how you would describe your friend Mike. And so I want you to come on journey with me. Okay, everybody take a deep breath. Breathe in and then release. Breathe in one more time, one more. And then release. And everybody out there, I want you to close your eyes. I want you to picture this setting. Okay, we're doing a little improv. Okay, if you're driving right now, let steezes take the wheel. Okay, they got you.

[Tim Gettys]

No.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Okay, do me a favor. Pretend like we're all in SFO and we're currently walking to the Uber pickup. We're about to step on to the elevator to go up two levels to get to the Uber parking lot. Mike looks at you and goes, what's up everybody? How's your day going?

[Andy Cortez]

Oh my God.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You all take a deep grind. You don't want to hear it, right?

[Andy Cortez]

That's the last place I want to hear that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You, you all huff and puff. I say y' all have some good trips. Andy, what do you say to that?

[Chris Anka]

I. I mean, if I'm with you on the trip, I'm just like, don't talk.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Exactly. That's what you said.

[Andy Cortez]

This is such a specific picture you're painting. Cuz the like when I'm in that Uber area at sfo, it's me getting back from a trip.

[Tim Gettys]

It's the end of.

[Andy Cortez]

It's the end. Like I hate that Uber R because I just want to be home.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah. Oh, it's such a long ride for me, dude.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Together he knows exactly how this 48

[Chris Anka]

minute Uber ride for me every.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

So you all are huffing and puffing $90 and you look at, I look at you guys and go, can I tell you about my friend Mike? Can I describe to you some of his favorite games and how I would.

[Chris Anka]

You're not Mike.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No, I'm not Mike. Okay, I'm Sam now. I'm Sam. Okay, I become Sam. Okay, Kevin, please bring up how I would describe my best friend Snowbike Mike and top 10 games.

[Andy Cortez]

Okay?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Of course, as you take a look right now, a fun one to describe my friend Mike. And you know he's all over the place, but he's got a lot of games that he loves and one of the most recent games was Call of Duty. Warzone. Snowbike Mike loves a good competitive shooter and he is a very competitive guy and something gets his motor going more than some chirping amongst friends. Some good call outs and some friendly competition to be who to see who can become number one. And that's why the battle royales are the best game around. I love it so much.

[Chris Anka]

Where's my team? Where's my team? This happened yesterday, like, in our first match of Battlefield 6.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Ian, Nick are fighting over here. I don't know. I drop a ping, the two of them are 500 yards. Where's my team?

[Chris Anka]

Staying alive and killing people.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Then after that, of course, it's fall guys. The ultimate knockouts.

[Tim Gettys]

I mean, love that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Add wipeout plus some jelly beans and let your imaginations go wild.

[Chris Anka]

What an era.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Every single day, I wake up and I think to the. I think to the good lords of ABC television, I say bring back wipeout with John Cena and let me and the whole kind of funny crew run one full competition. Let's see who wins. Okay. Let's see who also hurts themselves.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, Nick. Get a lot of pulled. Be a lot of pulled muscles thinking about fall guys like you. You know, I would. I try to play a decent amount at the beginning. And you. You kept on playing, right? You and Washi and the squad, and y' all were playing arc raiders the other day during the demo or whatever during the beta weekend. And you talking about how you're just gonna screw people over. Right?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I can't wait.

[Chris Anka]

And. And, you know.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

You bring them into. You get them into the web and then you sting them in the back, right?

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Chris Anka]

And you. A lot of people in chat, a lot of people were making comparisons to how you would create monsters in fall guys, where it's like, we're gonna push you off of this path that you're trying to run up on, and all you're doing is creating another mic in that moment. You're creating somebody who's gonna play that game with anger for the rest of their lives. It's just like it. Like watching Mike dominate those slopes was some of the most entertaining ever.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It was. This is going to be. This will go down to some of my favorite moments of my entire life was the three jabronis on those twinkies in slime climb. Just giggling and laughing, hands out, grabbing jelly beans, pushing you sideways.

[Chris Anka]

Just a lot of that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It was some of the greatest moments of my life, and I'll never forget. And now I get to recreate those moments in arc raiders. And so for the whole weekend, I'm going Mike on full comms loud, and I'm gonna. I'm gonna bring them in. Tim.

[Tim Gettys]

Good.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, my God. Green. Green dragon and aqua Thunder, we need your help. Right? And he comes Over. He's making friends with them, too. And then Andy kills them. You know what I mean?

[Chris Anka]

I didn't know that. I didn't know I killed that guy.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Then we continue on with Snowbike Mike's, of course, how I describe my friend Mike. He's a big Xbox lover. And if Snowbike Mike could have his way, he would find. He would try to become Marty McFly and Doc Ock. What's his name? I never watched the movies. Okay. I've never seen him, but, you know. Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Dr. Octopus.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That guy. Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And we would find a way to teleport, all of us as humanity, back to 2004. And I would trap us there, where we would just play Halo 2 multiplayer forever. Okay. The greatest of our life. Okay. I promise you, you would want to get in the car because it would be the absolute best. Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

Is there a reason why you put Halo 2 on your crotch?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You know, I was circling it up. I didn't know how to do things, you know?

[Chris Anka]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He pulled his nut, you know?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah. That's how great that game is. Halo 2, the goat. It's my favorite. If Snow, like Mike could rewind time, he'd put us there. Let's keep going. Show me another one, Kev. Pull it out. You know, another great way to describe Snow. Mike. Mike is just the classics, the hits. And that is EA big titles. NBA Street Volume two.

[Tim Gettys]

I'm happy on one of our.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, we don't get them like that. And like, when we talk about just fun, entertaining times. NBA street, the whole street franchise, from FIFA to NFL, they really nailed it, right? The music, the moment, the culture, the vibes, the game breakers. Yeah, right? It was just so special back then. And so, yeah, I will always rep NBA street or my. My best friend Mike will always rep NBA.

[Andy Cortez]

Have we not done, like an NBA street tournament here?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We gotta. You know, we gotta find a PS2, I guess.

[Tim Gettys]

It's crazy how special volume two is specifically.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Like.

[Tim Gettys]

Like all of them are at the very least good. But you compare two to one and three. And what was the. The next gen one? Homecore.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

It was just different, man. Like, the style of it, the. The soundtrack, like the just Even the art. The art that it has.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's like.

[Tim Gettys]

It was just.

[Andy Cortez]

It's kind of nuts because they made NBA Street Volume 1, right? Which is, like, cool, like you mentioned, good game or whatever, and then they somehow make one of the greatest games of all time in the sequel. So much so that you make the third game and it's like, ah, yeah, we'll put Mario in it. I don't know.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And then after that, of course, Snow Mike. Mike loves. I mean, here's the deal. When I describe my friend Snowbike Mike, Andy Cortez. I've never met someone in my life that is so loud that has such a passion for interior design.

[Chris Anka]

Ah, yes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He is passionate about theme parks and how those are designed homes, you know, he loves that stuff. But he is so computer illiterate. He has no eye for color. He doesn't understand how to blend things together, make it look good. But he's got a passion.

[Chris Anka]

And he really always wants to go to Andy, his friend Andy Stream room to decorate.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm gonna fucking decorate that real.

[Chris Anka]

I'm gonna get it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And that's why like the Sims is up there. Because nothing better is than the Sims. And when the Sims started expansion packs, Sims, vacation, Sims, hot dates where you would go to restaurants and be able to call up the girl that's the one for you, Rebecca Goth down the block and take her on a hot date. This was some of the greatest times her husband died.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, man.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We just didn't talk about it.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And then down below, you'll see. I pulled Theme Park World in there. I didn't want.

[Tim Gettys]

This is the mic. I didn't want to.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I didn't want to go roller coaster tycoon on you. No, no, no. I'm gonna give you one of those crazy off brand ones that I bought. And I loved this game to death. A little more cartoony. This is one where you could go first person into your customer's eyes and ride the rides. Fantastic game. This might be the best one of all time, but we don't talk.

[Andy Cortez]

Did you not play Thrillville?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Thrillville? No, I did not play Thrillville. Oh good.

[Andy Cortez]

Because I think that's another one of them, like tycoon, roller coaster kind of things.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

So many good ones.

[Chris Anka]

I'll tell you one that I'm kind of disappointed with right here.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Tell me.

[Chris Anka]

City of Heroes. But no wow.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Well, that was the thing. It's like Snow Mike. Mike loves wow. My best friend Snowbug Mike loves wow. But to keep.

[Chris Anka]

Is your friend Mike still paying for wow?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

100%. I was gonna. A lot of people said we should put stuff like Mike's top 10 and have Rocket money on this because there's a logo for rocket money out there that should be, you know, appreciated using. They say you're paying for it. Roger got me to try to cancel it. Absolutely not. I said to Roger Hunter, I'll cancel anything else. They got to get my money.

[Tim Gettys]

They gotta get my.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

But, like, here's the. Someone's got to support him. Someone's got to support him. I will. And so here's the deal. City of Heroes to keep you guessing, okay? There we were at the precipice of World of Warcraft at the ultimate height. We had Guild Wars 2. Oh, yeah, EverQuest Online. Okay? We had the greatest online games happening in the early 2000s. And then, boom, City of Heroes hit the scene. It was like, oh, shit, this might be the Goat of Goats. And they were like, guess what? The ultimate expansion pack, City of Villains, where you can become the bad guys. Now it's like, oh, my God, this is the greatest. And so we got to put City of Heroes to keep you guessing.

[Chris Anka]

What was Mike's superhero?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Superhero was always themed after Static Shock. That was my guy. Back in the day. It was Jackie Chan Adventures into Static Shock before we went to freshman basketball practice. It's like, nothing cooler than static shock.

[Chris Anka]

Big, like double whammy.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, my God.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We had three televisions at Will Lloyd's basement. It was. One had NCAA or Madden or whatever sports game we were playing at the time. One had PTI and around the horn because it was that afternoon block before. And then they would have. The other one would be Jackie Chan Adventures Static Shock. It was the greatest times of all time.

[Chris Anka]

It's his name, like, paranoid.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Will Lloyd and his mom, Shelly, they had the crank crazy, like, button talkers. And she'd be like, boys, the Hot Pockets are ready. You know, it's the greatest time of all time. Greatest time. Let's go down. Of course, Coach Mike. Coach Mike loves them kids, okay? My goal is to get out there in the little League, you know, development leagues, and help these kids, okay? When baby Ben finally gets ready to swing away at T ball, at soccer, at basketball, we'll be there, okay? And Coach Mike will be there with a bucket of balls ready to help this kid get the grind set mindset. Because you know what? Maybe I couldn't go pro, but I'm a damn sure make sure that kid goes, bro. And he's gonna bring me. He's gonna bring me, and he's paying for everything.

[Chris Anka]

Looking at all these kids going, don't be like me.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Like, here's the deal. You know what I mean? Hot single moms. Damn. Coach Mike out on the dive.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Gonna be a great time. Gonna be a recipe for disaster. I can't wait. Okay, you know, just keep it going. Let's pull back. I think we're almost done. Oh, and then of course, I would tell everyone in the elevator about my friend Mike. And I'd be like, he just played Final Fantasy 10 for the first time ever this year. It changed his life. Okay. My friend Snowbug Mike thinks about this game on the daily.

[Tim Gettys]

I love this.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

He thinks about the relationships. He thinks about the journey. He thinks about the high summoner Luna and how the. How we had to go with her to stop the spiral. You know what I mean? And then I spiraled out when I found out about Lulu and Waka. You know what I mean? Like, that's.

[Tim Gettys]

You legit had a crash out moment with some of the relationships.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I mean, I'll find out who made that game and we'll have a. We'll have a real discussion. Okay? Because that's a crazy situation. That's crazy that she chapu.

[Andy Cortez]

Okay?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Her man chaperone out there said, I gotta protect the love of my life. Okay? I gotta go out and fight Spira. Okay? I gotta go out there and fight the spiral and protect her from what's happening here in this world. And then she's like, I love my man. Then he dies for her and she gets with his brother, has a baby. I could never bless. I would never allow that to happen.

[Tim Gettys]

That's. He nailed 90 some of the names and places and things wrong.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

But overall the vibes, that's crazy. This game is the greatest is.

[Chris Anka]

Unfortunately, the developers are anonymous. There's no way you can find out who made it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I will never get to bump into these people. And then finally, of course, my best friend Snowbike Mike loves to keep you on your toes. And there's nothing better than Snowbike Mike getting in deep into his bag and just guessing the game. And that's Heroes of Might and Magic. Okay, you don't know where I'm going to take you. Okay? And I'm going to take you to one of the greatest tactics games ever made.

[Chris Anka]

Senior 3 Do logo.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's crazy 3. And guess what? I'm happy 2 Announce that in 2026, Heroes of Might and Magic Olden Era is releasing. We will get a new one of the franchise. I've willed this into existence.

[Tim Gettys]

Hell yeah.

[Chris Anka]

Maybe that's what you put in your fantasy. Critic.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Andy.

[Chris Anka]

Think about it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm already okay. I'm in the discord once again. I got some things I need done to finish out the year to win. Okay? So I. I'VE got a big pick finally here. But we will talk about that at a different date. Snowbug. Mike's top 10 to get. You know. Ya. That's what you would tell him in the elevator. Because that's gonna keep him guessing. That's gonna keep him going, right? Oh, he likes sports games. That's cool. He likes first person shooters. That's cool. Oh, he likes Sims. Hot date. Where did that come from?

[Tim Gettys]

I gotta be real with you, Mike. This just tells a story. Yeah, like I don't think it's. I don't think it's nearly as chaotic as it could be. I mean you were a kid with a PC.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

You know.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

Like that's what that. That got us here. You know, you liked online gaming. You still do.

[Chris Anka]

And luckily airport security is now here. They've got take away this psycho Sam. This Sam guy.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

What's the one game like the one game out of that top 10?

[Tim Gettys]

Out of that top 10.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I mean, it had to be Call of Duty, Warzone. It has to be Captain Mike. The squad, the call outs, the fire, the magic, the helicopter chopping and tossing, screaming at the top of my lungs. And my best friends on congratulating on a win. You know, asking where my team is. You know, silently getting frustrated at Nick Scarpino, who I love, but like at the same time just encouraged to get better. But like really deep down. So hard I want to pop the top off.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah. I want to just knock him out.

[Tim Gettys]

That's amazing.

[Chris Anka]

The memories, Mike. The one day. That's it. You drank like, was it seven Red Bulls at night and then you didn't stream for like five days in a row and you're like, I got sick.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Got sponsored by Red Bull with fall mania. Drank about seven of them.

[Chris Anka]

Boom.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Paid the price.

[Tim Gettys]

I love it. I want to get to some of these super chats to close out this episode here. Dolphin Corn says I'll do five Persona 4, Kingdom Hearts 2, Fallout, New Vegas, Overwatch and Baldur's Gate 3. All of those were just the. The like acronym. And I look at that. Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Now what?

[Chris Anka]

Now what if they had the acronym

Which was on my list somewhere too, but it didn't. It didn't quite get there. Smash, Ultimate Uncharted 2, Mass Effect 2, Destiny 2, Dark Souls, Zelda, Wind Waker, and Shadow of the Colossus.

[Andy Cortez]

I have a Spider man game on mine. Get to Know Me Deeper list. You would never guess which one. PS2, Spider Man 2. PS2?

[Andy Cortez]

I feel like the three games that had. That had the highest potential on being on multiple lists were Halo, NBA Street Volume 2, and Sifu. I feel like those are the three table. Yeah, for this table, it ended up

[Tim Gettys]

being Final Fantasy 10 with two, Mario 64 with two.

[Chris Anka]

Oh,

[Tim Gettys]

that was it.

[Andy Cortez]

I think that was it.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

That's kind of crazy.

[Andy Cortez]

And he didn't have crossover in the Souls ones.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, in Pokemon, we kind of split a little bit. Yeah, we got Nathan Haynes saying Skyrim, Pokemon Blue, Pokemon Emerald, Assassin's Creed Unity, Witcher 3, Black Ops 1, Gears of War, Dying Light 1. Tiger Woods PGA Tour. Wow.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Damn.

[Chris Anka]

I didn't have any golf games on mine. Golf games mean so much to me. I may have put, like, Mario Golf on the Game Boy.

[Tim Gettys]

All right, this is great, actually, because they left the Super Chat before I was even talking about this. Kebab says guess the acronyms.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Really quick, Andy. We went out to dinner with the head of Halo Studios.

[Chris Anka]

You, Sam, and your friend Mike talking about Tiger Woods.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We were talking sports games. We were going back and forth. Bam, he hit me. He goes, you didn't bring up a single tennis game. And I was like, oh, my God, tennis games, bro. So good.

[Chris Anka]

No, but here's the thing, man.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

So good.

[Chris Anka]

I only really with, like, Game Boy tennis game. Like, I guess I did get top spin every now and then.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Top spin.

[Chris Anka]

Oh, but like, I was never for me it was Tiger woods games because that was also when I was just super into getting into golf.

[Andy Cortez]

Man, if y' all saw me when I was on the Mario tennis for the N64 streets. Oh, I was a. I was a man.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh. Honorable mentions Control and blood.

[Tim Gettys]

Ah, there we go. There we go.

[Chris Anka]

So we're all guessing acronym.

[Tim Gettys]

Surprised Hollow Knight wasn't on Andy's list. But I get it's a little. It's maybe too new, but I bet in like five years it'll be on the list. Same with the Expedition 33 will be on mine in five years.

[Andy Cortez]

I would have to.

[Chris Anka]

I would have to replay it and re. Beat it because it's. As much as I love that it was like it's a pandemic game that I have just memory hold so much of what happened.

[Tim Gettys]

Danny says Sonic Adventure 2. The soundtrack is in my DNA. We read JB's earlier, but Final Fantasy 7, Expedition 33, Metal Gear Solid, DDR, Crazy Taxi. DDR should have been on mine.

[Andy Cortez]

I do like the mic idea of, like, us presenting games for each other. Because if I had to show somebody one game for Tim, it probably would be Expedition 33.

[Chris Anka]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Even though I know that's not your favorite game of all time, but, like, it's like, the most representative.

I saw Paris Lily in the YouTube chat being angry that Super Mario Bros. 3 was not on anybody's list. It's when we're talking top 100, it's very, very high up there. But that's not a game that I would say represents me.

[Andy Cortez]

It was either that or Mario 64 for me.

[Chris Anka]

I had to put it it was world for me. That was close.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Anyway, there's many other lists, but we can't get to all of them. Thank you so much for this.
