1. Introduction and Contestant Setup (00:00 – 03:25)

Blessing Adeoye Jr. kicks off the episode by introducing the return of "Portrait Mode" alongside a new segment called "Game Showdown." The hosts welcome the contestants:

• Tim Gettys represents Team Orange, expressing his frustration early on:
  “Not feeling good today. I'm gonna tell you that right now.” (00:22)
• Andy Cortez is on Team Purple, exuding confidence:
  “I'm ready to win. This is the one.” (00:51)
• Greg Miller takes the stage for Team Blue, the seasoned champions:
  “What a time to cut away. You're against me.” (01:00)

The hosts engage in light-hearted ribbing, setting a playful competitive tone for the episode.

2. Round 1: Trophy Thomas (05:29 – 12:32)

The first challenge requires contestants to draw Trophy Thomas, a side character from Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. Blessing explains the rules:
“Your task is to draw what you think the prompt looks like.” (03:46)

Tim Gettys presents his drawing, describing Trophy Thomas with detailed but humorous inaccuracies, prompting laughs from the hosts. Andy Cortez offers two interpretations, while Greg Miller delivers a more accurate depiction, complete with a mustache:
“I drew Trophy Thomas, and I spoiled out Thomas... he has a mustache.” (08:00)

The judging focuses on accuracy over artistry. Both Blessing and Roger McCorney commend Greg’s effort, awarding him the winning points.

3. Round 2: Slumber (13:20 – 19:48)

Next, contestants draw Slumber, an NPC defined as a sleepy rattlesnake from Banjo Tooie. The drawings vary significantly:

• Tim Gettys attempts a creative interpretation, blending elements humorously.
• Andy Cortez draws a cloud-like character with a moon, missing the mark on accuracy.
• Greg Miller presents a woodland creature resembling a bear, adding comedic elements like a candlestick.
• Mike humorously portrays Slumber with exaggerated features and a nightcap.

Despite the varied approaches, judges Lean towards Tim’s creative take, awarding him points for capturing Slumber’s essence.

4. Round 3: Cheeto (23:36 – 37:00)

In the third challenge, contestants must draw Cheeto, a character whose name suggests traits related to the snack:

• Andy Cortez’s drawing interprets Cheeto as a sleepy cloud character, diverging from the source material.
• Greg Miller creates a vibrant depiction with glasses and a friendly demeanor, hinting at Cheeto’s playful nature.
• Tim Gettys presents a minimalist pig figure, emphasizing simplicity.
• Mike adds humorous details like a slit and emphasizes color usage.

Roger McCorney favors Greg’s rendition for its vibrant and recognizable features, awarding him additional points.

5. Round 4: Clungo (30:36 – 43:42)

The fourth round challenges contestants to draw Clungo, a character associated with mechanical prowess in the Banjo Kazooie series:

• Andy Cortez showcases a primate-like figure with exaggerated proportions.
• Greg Miller illustrates Clungo with detailed machinery, incorporating elements like a Game Boy and goggles.
• Tim Gettys offers a straightforward depiction with classic pig features.
• Mike draws a blend of animal traits and mechanical components, adding complexity.

The judges ultimately side with Andy’s accurate portrayal, recognizing the character’s distinct features and comedic elements.

6. Round 5: Chris P. Bacon (34:28 – 50:07)

Chris P. Bacon is the fifth prompt, a character blending the name “Chris P. Bacon” with the traits of a pig:

• Andy Cortez envisions Chris as a playful, albeit incomplete, pig character.
• Greg Miller depicts Chris with accessories like sunglasses and a coat, infusing personality.
• Tim Gettys portrays a basic pig figure, adhering closely to the name’s literal interpretation.
• Mike emphasizes humor with exaggerated features and playful attire.

Roger McCorney backs Greg’s detailed and charismatic drawing, awarding him the win for this round.

7. Bonus Round: Roger’s Shovelware (43:22 – 50:54)

In the bonus segment, contestants identify fake Steam games among a list of shovelware titles. Blessing explains the rules:
“Your task is to write down which game you think is the fake Video game among the shovelware.” (43:57)

Transcript

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Today Portrait mode returns. Get ready for game showdown. Yo, what's up? Welcome to game Showdown. I'm your host, Blessing Adioye Jr. And I'm joined by three contestants representing three teams. We got Tim Geddes representing team Orange.

[Tim Geddes]

Not feeling good today. I'm gonna tell you that right now.

[Andy Cortez]

Why not?

[Tim Geddes]

My dominant run the last couple weeks, last couple months, years, however you wanna look at it. I feel like you can all get screwed up. Thanks to this damn tablet in front of me. And thanks to these two goddamn jabronis. Bless fair down the center. Always. Roger and Mike. We'll have to wait and see.

[Greg Miller]

We forget that Blessing. Blessing also voted for Greg during that the first episode. We forget about that part. It's not just me.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Cortez representing team Purple.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm ready to win. This is. This is the one. This is the one.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And of course we have Greg Miller representing the two time season champions, Team Blue.

[Mike]

You forgot that intro though. Greg Miller.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Sorry Mr. Stars in the bank. Greg Miller.

[Mike]

What a time to cut away. You're against me. Not too Barrett. I got the whole deck stacks against me. Barrett. That's how it's going to be. You won't like what happens when that happens to me. I'll tell you right now. It's going to make me cranky crazy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I don't want to be cranky.

[Roger McCorney]

I don't want to be cranky crazy be. I want to get cranky crazy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Can you imagine if Greg Miller had like the face muscles of Jim Carrey? How crazy that would be if you could get crazy like that? We're going to start off with a trivia question worth 10 points and the chance to go first in kind of feudi. That's a lie. We're not playing Kind of feudi. Just the chance to start off strong is what this is. Contestants buzz in to answer. In the game Half Life, what is the first weapon? The main character? Gordon Ramsay. Greg Miller.

[Mike]

Crowbar.

[Andy Cortez]

Ramsey. Spatula.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It's cuz Greg was buzzing in. That's why I stopp again.

[Mike]

Gordon Ramsay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

In my mind. Gordon Ramsay.

[Andy Cortez]

Omelette.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

A man who I'm sure would also use a crowbar. Crowbar is correct.

[Mike]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That is 10 points for Greg Miller.

[Andy Cortez]

Now the next question. The next question. Name an NPC on Real Housewives in Detroit.

[Mike]

Always.

[Andy Cortez]

It's always for my question. Name a video game that's a shooter. Tim's question. Name a goddamn NPC in Crash Bandicoot. That's not Neil Cortez or whatever.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That did make me Crack up of life. You were like, oh, you gave him the Crash Bandicoot. Like I asked about Extraction shooters. Also, you're asking about video games. No, about Extraction.

[Tim Geddes]

Those weren't the ones that won or lost it for me. It was the games with Force in the title that won it for me.

[Mike]

I've never wanted to choke you to death more. Yeah, right.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now remember, this is Game Showdown. Kind of funny, this nerdy game show that you can watch live right here on twitch and on YouTube. If you love what we do, support us with the kinda funny membership on Patreon or YouTube to get all of our shows ad free, watch us record them live and get a daily exclusive show. Thank you to our Patreon producers, Delaney Twining, Karl Jacobs, Omega Buster and Karen Lindner. Today we're brought to you by Rocket Money, Shady Rays and betterhelp. But we'll tell you about that later. For now, let's play portrait mode.

[Andy Cortez]

This mode deserves that intro.

[Roger McCorney]

It just dust off that one.

[Tim Geddes]

Got to go fast as it goes.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Slower than it's cooking in there for a minute. The rules are simple.

[Andy Cortez]

No, they're not.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm going to give you all the same prompt. I'm going to read this very carefully.

[Greg Miller]

Very carefully.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Take all these rules in. Everybody take it in.

[Andy Cortez]

Put the words on the screen. Let's read them.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm going to. I'm going to give you all the same prompt. It could be the name of a Pokemon, a famous final boss, or even a video game box art. Your task is to draw what you think the prompt looks like on your surface. Pros.

[Andy Cortez]

Never been one of those.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Hey, it could be one day. Not today. It could be one day, though. Our three judges, me, Snow Mike, Mike and Roger McCorny will pick the winners for each round. You get 10 points for each endorsement from Mike, Roger, and me. So if I think Greg has the best drawing but what Roger and Mike think Tim did, Greg would get 10 points while Tim would get 20. We're judging the glasses.

[Roger McCorney]

We're calling it right down the middle. I brought glasses. We're calling it right down the middle.

[Greg Miller]

We all have glasses.

[Andy Cortez]

Where were they? You were missing them for a while.

[Mike]

You know, don't worry about in and out.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm going to say these words very carefully. We're judging based on accuracy, not artistry. So if I ask you to draw the Gears of War box art, as long as you have the key features right, that's more important than your actual drawing skills. You got that, judges?

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, but like, what if Features. What if no one has any accuracy? Like, it's vibes, right? Like.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I mean.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Mike]

See?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Thank you.

[Andy Cortez]

That drops off to a great. Have we not learned this is the second time. Third time we've done this?

[Greg Miller]

It's been flawless. Every time, it's been flawless. Fans love this one.

[Mike]

I can't go do the laundry without somebody talking about portrait mode.

[Andy Cortez]

Goddamn acrobat.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Should we go back to one of the other games that Tim was going to win every single week? Or should we give Greg and Andy a chance?

[Mike]

Thank you. Thank you. It's all we asked for. Were persecuted about Greg Miller.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Guys, today's theme is Banjo Kazooie side character.

[Mike]

Yeah, it is.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. Contestants, are you ready?

[Mike]

Born ready. Blessing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I want you to draw for round one, Trophy Thomas. Oh. I want you to draw Trophy Thomas. You have 60 seconds. This is a real thing on the clock. Trophy Thomas. Trophy Thomas is a Banjo Kazooie size. Real guy.

[Andy Cortez]

Real guy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Are you Mike? Are you familiar with.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah, real familiar with him.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You did a wink for us.

[Greg Miller]

You did a wink, everybody.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I don't know why. I'm just trying for audio listeners. Yeah. If you're an audio listener, you are missing out.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, you're.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I.

[Greg Miller]

Have you ever played Banjo Kazooie? I never played Badger.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I bench because we won. I played funny enough. Played it very late. Good.

[Tim Geddes]

Guys.

[Andy Cortez]

It's not working. Ah, he's disqualified. It's unfortunate.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I mean, tell him you gotta get his broken Roger. You want to go home?

[Roger McCorney]

Where's it on this?

[Tim Geddes]

I got it. He's got it.

[Greg Miller]

He's got it.

[Roger McCorney]

We'll give him an extra 20, Thomas.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I played Banej Kazooie 1 in like 20. Either. 2016, 2017. Yeah, yeah. I played it when I first got my Xbox One. I was big into rare replay because I love rare of the studio. I played Jeff O Shemini back in the day. I played DK 64 when I played it for the first time. Absolutely loved it.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Banjo Kazooie, in my opinion, still holds up to this day. Fantastic.

[Greg Miller]

I think I'm more associated with Banjo Tooie. Cause my neighbor had that game, and he was obsessed with banjo tooie.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, I don't know why. Mike, what's your banjo experience?

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah, I'm all about banjo nuts and bolts. That's the one I know about, of course.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Well, we hit the 62nd mark.

[Greg Miller]

I think Greg and Andy, put your pens down, Tim, if you want some more time.

[Mike]

You're good.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, Tim's good.

[Mike]

Wow.

[Greg Miller]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right. So I asked you guys, to draw Trophy Thomas Bear, if you can bring up Tim's drawing first.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, yeah, I want to see.

[Andy Cortez]

There he is.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim, do you want to describe this at all?

[Tim Geddes]

It's a trophy. His name's Thomas. He does, in fact, have little hands. There are hands. Fingers.

[Greg Miller]

Whoa.

[Andy Cortez]

Turn your hand.

[Tim Geddes]

He has fingers. That's key.

[Roger McCorney]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right.

[Mike]

Very key.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay, Very key. Andy Cortez. Show me what you got.

[Andy Cortez]

I drew two things.

[Mike]

Oh, here we go.

[Andy Cortez]

Because I. I drew something similar to what Tim drew. The. You know, his hands are. But his hands are on his hips. But if that's not good enough, then I drew this.

[Mike]

Do two things.

[Andy Cortez]

Who this. In case this is close enough.

[Roger McCorney]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

There's a person with four appendages.

[Roger McCorney]

I will keep that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I don't know if we're gonna keep that in your background. We're gonna go with the first thing he showed.

[Greg Miller]

No, you have to put both of those images on top of each other.

[Mike]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Don't throw it out there.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg Miller, what you got?

[Mike]

I drew Trophy Thomas, as everybody knows. He looks there now, you might see what I did here is I drew Trophy Thomas, and I spoiled out Thomas, obviously, with him, because that's a big thing from the game.

[Roger McCorney]

Yes.

[Mike]

But I also put a little mustache on him because when I did it all in just the black outlines, the handles kind of looked like hair. And I didn't think. What you think this was Trophy Tina. So this is clearly Trophy Thomas with his mustache there. He's always given Banjo and or Kazooie all sorts of help, you know, telling them how to get them trophies.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now, can I ask you, what is GLOT2C? GLOT2TCT?

[Mike]

Come on.

[Andy Cortez]

Is that the login code?

[Mike]

Why are you embarrassing yourself? Are you kidding me right there? I knew there'd be somebody. I thought it'd be Tim would be too stupid for it. The whole line. What I do there is we see. I'm Greg, leader of the two top champions, Team Bullet. That needed to be on there, but I didn't want to take up all my space.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Trophy Thompson.

[Tim Geddes]

It's so hard to figure out how is fucking money in the fucking stars related to this? Jesus Christ.

[Mike]

Joey, put it on his shirt.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Can you bring up the actual Trophy Thomas?

[Greg Miller]

I'm excited. Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is Trophy Thomas. He is a tiger. Tiger cheetah. I can't tell.

[Mike]

Oh, he's a tiger.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tiger. Yeah. This is a tiger.

[Andy Cortez]

Looks a lot like my second drawing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Trophy Thomas is a character from Major Kazooie. Nuts and Bolts, the one that Mike played.

[Mike]

Look at the third option there, though, and tell me that doesn't look like he has a mustache.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Actually, he is a cheetah. He is a cutthroat cheetah and is described as an overly competitive bragger who enjoys contests and challenges.

[Mike]

His spots aren't defined enough for him to be a cheat. I'm just gonna put.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That's what. That's what got me where I was like. I couldn't tell if that was just a stylistic thing or he was actually cheetah.

[Andy Cortez]

I thought they put Ninja inside of the game.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Thought he had a little partnership, you know?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So now it's up to Mike, Roger, and I to vote on who they think had the closest drawing to Trophy Thomas. I'm not going to lie, it's kind of tough.

[Roger McCorney]

I've called it down the middle. I've called it down the middle.

[Andy Cortez]

Down the middle, down the middle.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, I got mine.

[Greg Miller]

Down the middle, down the middle.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I can already. I can already feel the anger of the audience.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, interesting. I don't know what those move. Oh, you're not even looking at your board. I think it's scribbled.

[Andy Cortez]

He's not looking at what he's writing.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, we might not be able to read it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, let's start off with Roger. Roger.

[Andy Cortez]

Mike's doing like the Ouija board. Like, he's not the spirits guy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Why are you erasing what you just.

[Mike]

Wrote, Ty, don't forget I spelled out the name. So I at least said that right hand.

[Roger McCorney]

That right.

[Greg Miller]

All right, this is a tough one. Champions, I guess champion.

[Mike]

But I mean, leader of the two time champions.

[Greg Miller]

Champion of a certain, you know, season one, I was.

[Mike]

I was second place, season 13, kind of feudi. Champion.

[Tim Geddes]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

I am going to give it to Greg. And that's because of the mustache.

[Mike]

Thank you.

[Greg Miller]

The hair connection.

[Mike]

Thank you.

[Greg Miller]

The hair connection.

[Andy Cortez]

Damn.

[Greg Miller]

There's hair. There's hair. And everyone else did not have hair. He had hair. And I think Andy's was cheating with the four and he just put a.

[Mike]

Dot on the page next to me.

[Tim Geddes]

No, here we fucking explicitly said it does not have hair.

[Roger McCorney]

It is not hair.

[Tim Geddes]

I put in the mustache.

[Roger McCorney]

No, it does not have hair.

[Mike]

No, no, no, no, no. What I said is the handles weren't hair in the pigtail form. I didn't want you to think it was Trophy Tina, is the show moving too fast for you?

[Tim Geddes]

Huh?

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, I heard that. I heard that part.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm also going to vote for Greggy.

[Andy Cortez]

Miller, please tell me why.

[Greg Miller]

Hey, Internet commenters, remember this?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Here's the thing. Who do you want me to vote for here? Cuz nobody had an accurate depiction on Trophy Thomas. The. The thing about Greg's is that at the very least he had the coloring right.

[Mike]

Thank you. Show it. Throw it up there.

[Tim Geddes]

Color matters now.

[Mike]

Accurate. Accurate. They said accurate. Tim's a pedophile. It looks like a trophy drop in its drawers.

[Tim Geddes]

Look at that.

[Mike]

It's got its. It got spooks coming out of the.

[Roger McCorney]

Woods jerking off.

[Tim Geddes]

Guys.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Again, none of these are good art pieces, but yeah, I look at Greg's and I'm like, if I had to choose an image here that somehow looks the closest to the tiger or sorry, to the cheetah that we see on screen. I'm going with Greg's. I'm sorry, Mike, who you got?

[Roger McCorney]

I'm happy to report that I went with Greg as well. Yeah, terrific artistry. Really nailed Trophy Thomas right there.

[Mike]

Thank you very much.

[Roger McCorney]

Mustache kind of looks like the cheetah's mouth, so I'm gonna give it to him.

[Mike]

Thank you. I appreciate that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Michael, whose name did you write down before you race?

[Andy Cortez]

Didn't call that us.

[Mike]

Tim.

[Andy Cortez]

This is Tim, does this feel to you where, like when you're leading up to a big Wrestlemania, they're like, well, they. They have to have him lose here so that he could. Yeah, this is. Yeah.

[Tim Geddes]

All right, first off, I know how this.

[Mike]

On the embargoed games cast we recorded. You and I were very adamant we were going to team up against him. Why are you turning on me immediately? This is exactly what we want.

[Andy Cortez]

Well, you know, when. When. Blessing, these aren't good. None of these are good drawings. Maybe this shouldn't be a mo y.

[Greg Miller]

Maybe you should get better at the game.

[Andy Cortez]

This game sucks. Luckily, it's unsanctioned. We don't get. There's no star.

[Mike]

I actually want you to remember when you start voting next time, he's the one screaming over here. He's saying, overthrow the government. I'm saying, hey, it's a two party system.

[Greg Miller]

Let's vote.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, round number two. I want you guys.

[Andy Cortez]

I just want to draw a big dick. Just a veiny dick for every one of these.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I want you guys to draw slumber.

[Mike]

Sure.

[Greg Miller]

Lumber Slumber.

[Andy Cortez]

The only one I've known out of any of these contestants was Acrobat, and I still lost that one. I don't know what Slumber is.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You're wasting time, right?

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, he's just complaining instead of actually playing the game because he knows he's bad at the game, so he just.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Slumber. Also, 80 is talking like he hasn't been losing every other episode.

[Andy Cortez]

No, I'm talking about game showdown.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. You kind of threw me through a curveball when we saw the last guy. And he was. He was the nuts and bolts. I forgot that that was.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

Even though you just mentioned it. But that's crazy. There's a whole. There's a whole universe.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

There's a universe of Banjo Kazooie characters. Let me tell you, when I was going through the wiki, there's a last episode. A lot of good options.

[Roger McCorney]

Wow.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Characters that you would not remember. And then you would hear their name.

[Greg Miller]

Be like, oh, are these just random NPCs?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Are they bosses, like, bringing them NPCs, right? Like trophy. You want to call him Trophy Cheetah. Trophy. Trophy Cheetah would have been easier. Trophy Thomas, like, as you read it, right? He's a character. He's like. I think he gives out challenges. We'll talk about Slumber.

[Greg Miller]

Oh.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

In a second. Right about now, because 60 seconds are up. Let's start in reverse order this time. Barely.

[Andy Cortez]

You can break. I look so. It's good. It's good. I like it.

[Greg Miller]

Greg is really good at this game.

[Mike]

You're all fucked because I woke up today.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bring up Greg Miller's.

[Mike]

So are you happy?

[Roger McCorney]

Let's go. Wow.

[Mike]

So I envision Slumber, obviously, as a woodland creature. I'm going with a bear. I know it's. I'm not the best. I can't draw a bear really well, but he's a bear, as you see.

[Roger McCorney]

With the knife, he'll be a gopher.

[Mike]

Guys, hey, it's not about artistic beaver. It's a woodland creature. My head. He was a bear because bears hibernate. But anyways, he's got the blue. He's got the, you know, the nightgown and the night cap on. He's got his little candlestick thing there ready to go. That's Slumber, everybody.

[Roger McCorney]

I like, can I.

[Tim Geddes]

Can I ask a clarifying question here? Is it a bear woodland creature or is it a beaver woodland creature?

[Roger McCorney]

Because you can't just be like, woodland creature counts anything.

[Mike]

I was just saying it's a woodland creature. I tried to draw a bear. God himself and. Or Satan reached into my anus and touched my hand and said, draw the beaver, Greg. And I said, yes, sir.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Did you touch your hand with, like, a different hand or did you reach out your anus?

[Tim Geddes]

You Went all the way.

[Mike]

However you feel the power.

[Roger McCorney]

You feel the power.

[Tim Geddes]

It's like a long journey to your hand.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Easier ways to get to the hand. Bear, bring up Andy's drawing.

[Andy Cortez]

I drew a character in Banjo Kazooie. A little cloud.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

With maybe a little moon. I don't know.

[Greg Miller]

I like this.

[Andy Cortez]

Just a sleepy little guy disease. Yeah, he's snoring right there. But it's a character in. I drew a character in the video game Banjo Kazooie series franchise.

[Roger McCorney]

Oh, wow. So he thinks he's got it.

[Mike]

Are you insulting mine? I don't know if it's happening.

[Andy Cortez]

Sometimes part of the game is you just have to put the keywords. Like Greg saying the mustache is the facial hair of Mike going, oh, it looks like the facial hair.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

When you say you drew a character, like, you know, you don't mean, like, you've seen. You play Banjo Kazooie. You know what the characters are.

[Greg Miller]

You drew a character.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You knew. You're just saying.

[Greg Miller]

He's basically saying, I have the correct answer.

[Andy Cortez]

This is a character inside of Banjo Kazooie the game.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, wow. Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tim Geddes]

I see it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bring up Tim's.

[Tim Geddes]

So here's the deal. It's kind of a play on it, right? The sleep, but then the burr. Okay. Like, Burr is so chilly. He's so cold. I haven't played Badikazooie, everybody.

[Andy Cortez]

I do not know these games.

[Mike]

Really?

[Andy Cortez]

That feels like a horrifying depiction of a penguin. Penguin. Penguin artistry. Doesn't matter.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Barry, bring up the actual Slumber.

[Tim Geddes]

Maybe it's just an ice character of some form.

[Andy Cortez]

He's a chili character in the.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Wow.

[Greg Miller]

Different.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. Slumber. Slumber is an enormous, albeit rather lethargic, green rattlesnake who appears in Banjo Tooie. He is constantly sleeping and only awakens when he hears someone attempting to steal his jiggy. If you heard. I was trying to emphasize the S.

[Mike]

Okay, before you go to the polls, I would like to point out, right, A woodland creature. All right? And then if you look at that tail, doesn't it quite look like a flame on a candle?

[Roger McCorney]

You don't gotta tell me twice, big dog.

[Tim Geddes]

Think about how triangular this thing looks.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, my God. I'll talk your penguin bear. Can you, like, cycle through the drawings?

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, I gotta.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I need some help.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, it's tough, see, you know, when. When portrait mode is first pitched, I was like, this sounds cool. Draw a box art cover. One of our interpretations of the Gears of War box art. Things that we know. But it's a Guessing game. It's an improv game is what it turned into.

[Mike]

The next thing I'd like to point out, of course, I am the only person who used colors. And of course, as we all know, you can't get green, Mike, without yellow and blue.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

There's no yellow here.

[Mike]

Yeah, I have blue.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah, we gotta mix them.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, he's gotta mix. He's gotta mix.

[Mike]

I have blue, so I'm halfway to green.

[Roger McCorney]

He's halfway there.

[Andy Cortez]

The next one's gonna be bl saying, draw, my friend from the second grade.

[Mike]

Please have us draw Edison.

[Andy Cortez]

We just say gets. We're guessing, you know, it's an improv show. No points involved.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bring up Tim's one more time, please.

[Roger McCorney]

Everybody take a look. Take a look at Tim's.

[Greg Miller]

Interesting.

[Tim Geddes]

Golly angular.

[Andy Cortez]

But what was cool was like slumber had three S's. I had three z's on my sleepy guy. Tim, I think you're getting points of this one. The way they're laughing.

[Tim Geddes]

No, I think that you just want blessing over.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, man. I just. All right, let's start with Mike. Mike, what you got?

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah, I went one woodland creature to another bear. The snake Greg.

[Andy Cortez]

Connection.

[Roger McCorney]

They're the same genus. Greg Miller. On this one.

[Mike]

You got to vote with your heart.

[Andy Cortez]

They're the same family.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I voted Tim.

[Andy Cortez]

Thank you. Yeah. Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

I voted Tim as well. I voted Tim as well. It's the long, like, the long arms. It kind of gives, like a snake like quality.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Of course, again, unfortunate showing from everybody here.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. Specifically Andy. Specifically Andy. Could figure it out. Couldn't figure it out.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Was I not emphasizing the s?

[Andy Cortez]

No in slumber? I heard blessing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I heard it. Thank you. Somebody did. Somebody did. All right, we're gonna move on to round three.

[Andy Cortez]

But before we do, I can't wait.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And we're back with round number three. Contestants, I want you to draw Cheeto.

[Roger McCorney]

Oh, Cheeto.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Cheeto.

[Greg Miller]

Cheeto.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Cheeto.

[Greg Miller]

Cheeto.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Cheeto.

[Greg Miller]

Cheeto.

[Roger McCorney]

Cheeto.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Not something you'd associate with a banjo character.

[Roger McCorney]

Do we still have those Cheetos? Puff like popcorn. We got a smack nose today.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I think, like for the first, like full year of working in this new studio, for a full year, I try to put Andy onto the puffcorn.

[Andy Cortez]

I like. There's like, here's why I always turned off by it, cuz I thought it was just popcorn, but it's not.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It's just a puff. It's just a puff.

[Andy Cortez]

It's a puff.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It's. What's the other? Pirates booty. It's kind of like that.

[Roger McCorney]

Pirates booty?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. I really like pirates.

[Roger McCorney]

Booby. That's crazy.

[Greg Miller]

What?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

What do you mean?

[Roger McCorney]

I don't like the pirate booty chip.

[Greg Miller]

I don't know how I like those.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I think. I think they're fine. I like the cheetos version. Like, I like the puffcorn more because it's almost way more soft. Okay.

[Greg Miller]

It feels like cheap to me. You know what I mean? It feels like just some like styrofoam that they're just putting like the dust on. You know what I mean?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, yeah. You get a bit more of that crunch. Yeah, yeah, but that's what I. Not that I don't like the crunch, but the puffcorn is made because it doesn't have the crunch right. Like, that's why I like it.

[Greg Miller]

60 seconds are up.

[Andy Cortez]

But it honestly, it feels like there's layers of super soft and then a good crunch at the end is what I was getting. Yeah, it was really good.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, I crushed that back.

[Andy Cortez]

Sorry.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right. I asked you guys to draw.

[Mike]

Thank you, God.

[Andy Cortez]

Anderson hair, like, got caught.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I asked y'all to draw Cheeto. Yeah, Cheeto. We're gonna start off with Andy Cortez.

[Greg Miller]

Titus.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, oh, that's really adorable guy.

[Mike]

A lame with botulism.

[Roger McCorney]

Cheetah bear.

[Andy Cortez]

Those are all wounds. I mean, depending on what you know, it's. It's a. I was trying to draw a character in the bad joke. Yeah, just a character, you know, cute.

[Greg Miller]

It's small.

[Andy Cortez]

Got. Got on, you know, maybe has arms, maybe doesn't. Maybe has hands, maybe doesn't.

[Tim Geddes]

Tim, before you bring mine up, maybe those aren't eyes.

[Andy Cortez]

Maybe if it doesn't have eyes, those are spots.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. Maybe it's multiple eyes.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. Interpret it.

[Tim Geddes]

I need you all to understand that the last maybe 15 seconds, it was just everything went black. Tried changing the color, wasn't working. Figured this all out. Did not figure out how to change colors. I was going to use colors, but I'm not going to tell you what I don't know.

[Andy Cortez]

Colors were necessary.

[Tim Geddes]

Yeah. Here's the thing, everybody. What you're about to see is what you're going to get. Okay? Please bring it up. That's all you got?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay, okay, okay.

[Tim Geddes]

An excessive amount of dots on this thing. I want that to be.

[Andy Cortez]

When you go Pepperoni lovers.

[Greg Miller]

Andy didn't have many.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay, giving me trophy. Thomas Vibes. Show me Greg's.

[Mike]

You know him well. Everybody. It's Cheeto the orangutan and. Or Cheetah the gorilla from the old days of kinda funny. There he is. He's brown, he's pink, he's Cheetos. He's happy. I wanted to draw a little vine in his hand there, but I ran out of time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bard, if you can bring up a.

[Andy Cortez]

Very good Cheeto, A good one.

[Mike]

Thank you. I tried. Unlike some people on this panel, mainly my competitors.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So Cheeto is Gruntilda's magic spell book. Cheeto is spelled C H E A T O Because he cheats. Cause he's Che. Cheats.

[Andy Cortez]

Cheats on his wife.

[Mike]

Now, before you go to the polls, I'd like to make my case. Of course. I have eyes just like this guy, right? My guy has eyes not nearly as good as my eyes. Everybody, you know that to be. Also, I'm using colors as you see they are here. I had brown in there and there's some brown in that spell book. Thank you, everybody.

[Roger McCorney]

This one's going to be tough to call, but I think I already have.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So he. He is found in Banjo, Zooie, Banjo Tui and Banjo Pilot. He. He is responsible for giving Banjo and Kazooie cheat codes to use against Gruntilda in the first two games and unlocks extra features in Pilot.

[Mike]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So this is Greg's drawing here.

[Roger McCorney]

Pretty good. Very good.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is Tim's drawing. Here is Andy's drawing.

[Mike]

Can we see Cheetah One more time.

[Roger McCorney]

Sorry.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Ah, I almost want to, like, find, like, a spinner app on my phone.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Mike]

Real quick, too. Just to be clear, I didn't have as much time as I wanted. If we could look below the belt on my cheetah, you'd see there's also a slit there.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh.

[Roger McCorney]

It'S crazy.

[Mike]

Anything for the W, Mike. Anything for the W. You know what I mean?

[Roger McCorney]

I'm gonna call right down the middle. I'm calling down the middle.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Roger McCorney]

It was an easy vote.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is a tougher category than I anticipated.

[Greg Miller]

Really bad one. Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I should have won with Block Anybod, right? Can you show me the contestants again?

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. Just one more time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Real quick.

[Roger McCorney]

You know, Blessing saying, like, you know who it is. Just put it down.

[Andy Cortez]

Blessing said, I wish I could just randomize it. You know, randomize the selection. It's like. Well, I. Unfortunately, you're not in charge of the rules of this game.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

In my mind, you guys are more familiar with Banjo. You could, like, you know, maybe connect certain names to certain things. Or, you know, you go by the. By the clue that's in the name. Oh, there's a lot of S's. Maybe it'll be like a snake go by.

[Andy Cortez]

Well, maybe if I could read them there.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Right.

[Mike]

That's an excellent way to add.

[Roger McCorney]

Helpful. That would be helpful.

[Mike]

Also, I will point out that, as you know, mine is of the great ape family. They climb trees. Trees. Or make paper.

[Andy Cortez]

If bear could attack.

[Roger McCorney]

I've already put my vote in.

[Greg Miller]

This is just a crap shoot. You know what I mean? Like, you just got to get.

[Mike]

It's really not.

[Greg Miller]

It's got to be worth on mine.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, let's start off with Roger.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. This one actually, it's a Vibes based choice.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Right.

[Greg Miller]

But it actually worked out in your favor, Andy, because I'm choosing a. Wow. I'm choosing Andy, and I think it's just great. It's just kind of the vibe that I get from the book.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Right.

[Greg Miller]

And the one that I get from. I don't know. It seems like a very friendly vibe. And also his nose was a triangle, like, upside down triangle. It's kind of like what a book looks like.

[Andy Cortez]

I had the same vibes.

[Greg Miller]

Now you're all about it. Now you're all about the vibes.

[Andy Cortez]

I felt the same vibes. Okay. Okay. Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I went with Greg.

[Mike]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And again, this is a choice based off of the colors he used. He used browns in, like, the book.

[Mike]

Try so hard. You know what I mean?

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah.

[Tim Geddes]

How do you use colors?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Mike, what's your vote?

[Roger McCorney]

Thank you so much for asking me. I've been calling it right down the middle the entire time. I will continue to do that. And I went off of who had the biggest eyeballs and Greg Miller had the biggest eyeballs on his. And that is the defining characteristic of Cheeto. Who's got big ass eyes.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Roger McCorney]

Great job, Greg.

[Mike]

Thank you. Mike killed it, Greg.

[Andy Cortez]

You did really good on that one, Greg.

[Mike]

Thank you. Thank you very much. You get some points out there.

[Andy Cortez]

It looked like a book. Yeah, I got the pity points. Thank you.

[Tim Geddes]

It looked like a book.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Round number four. I want you guys to draw clungo. Oh, go.

[Greg Miller]

Forget clungo.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Clungo.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm gonna just draw a book. Whatever the word is. Just.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm gonna spell this word. I'm gonna spel.

[Roger McCorney]

Well, Chino, I felt like you. I Cheeto. You could have got that one.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

K, K L U N G O is clungo. K, L, K L U N G O is clungo.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now is that going to help?

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Does that help?

[Greg Miller]

I don't know.

[Roger McCorney]

Patrick Longo.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Mike, how do you think you would fare in this, like in this category?

[Roger McCorney]

Oh, that's a great man. I'd be killing it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You know what I mean?

[Roger McCorney]

We have.

[Andy Cortez]

You should take my spot next. Get over here. Come on.

[Roger McCorney]

Next time. I love to judge.

[Andy Cortez]

I would love to judge.

[Roger McCorney]

You know what I mean? But I am a. I'm. I'm a straight down the middle judge. And that's why you bring me on this panel because I called straight down the middle every time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, this beautiful contestants.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Five seconds left.

[Roger McCorney]

Thank you. I think the audience would appreciate that.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, it's great that this is pre recorded. Right. You know what I mean? Like we don't have to deal with the audience.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We don't. We don't have to deal with the chat. All right, pencils down. We're going to start off with. You're right there with me.

[Greg Miller]

Great.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We're going to show Greg's first.

[Mike]

I'd like to introduce everybody close up.

[Roger McCorney]

I was hoping he would see the.

[Mike]

Member of the Grady family.

[Andy Cortez]

You can see him swinging from his really good job.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, let's see Andy's.

[Andy Cortez]

I had a very. Why is he so sad?

[Roger McCorney]

I'm with you, Andy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm with you.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm thinking apish as well.

[Roger McCorney]

Right.

[Andy Cortez]

Kind of, you know, I think of like a primate sort of clung. Clungo.

[Mike]

Yeah, exactly, exactly.

[Andy Cortez]

I get points.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

I keep forgetting you use color, man. That's a Deciding boat.

[Tim Geddes]

Andy's way more artistically talented than me, but I'm in the same realm here where it's a dumb monkey. Like, this guy's kind of stupid. Like, he's really, like, big and heavy and stuff brown. But there is some shades of gray in there.

[Mike]

Wow.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

That's the gingerbread man from Shrek. Yeah, I was gonna say.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Barrett, show me clungo.

[Greg Miller]

So excited. I'm so nervous.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm really excited for this one. It's probably my favorite one.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So this is clungo.

[Andy Cortez]

That's me all day.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Like, this is one of the. One of those ones where I was like, all right, cool. You guys kind of locked in here.

[Roger McCorney]

Wow.

[Andy Cortez]

If I don't get three votes for.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This, I do have a confident vote here.

[Andy Cortez]

Just give me the pity points. I'm not gonna win. I'm gonna lose to Greg, But I deserve all three. Look how massive.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We have more rounds.

[Roger McCorney]

You have a chance.

[Andy Cortez]

Look at how tiny my guy's legs are.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So I'll go for Andy. Andy, I think did have, like, the most appropriately, like, just a big, dumb guy.

[Andy Cortez]

Big arms, little legs, you know, 1000%.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Like, the proportions are actually kind of scarily accurate.

[Andy Cortez]

Legitimately. I think I've drawn this body style for this game about 13 times. We got a clungo archetype.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Mike, who you got?

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah, I call it straight down the middle every time.

[Greg Miller]

Okay.

[Roger McCorney]

Andy Cortez.

[Andy Cortez]

Thank you. Thank you, big dog.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Roger.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, you know, me and Andy, we have a rough relationship on the show. Right. But. But, you know, I can't. I can't doubt it. Right. It is just the arms. It is the way that that body's built. It's clungo.

[Mike]

All.

[Andy Cortez]

That's the closest one to, like, wow. Andy maybe knows how clungo actually looks.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah. That's the closest any of you have gotten to the actual thing. And it's funny.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This was the first time you didn't.

[Andy Cortez]

Say this is a character from ban talking to you. The reverse jinx.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, round number five. I want you guys to draw Chris P. Bacon. Yep. His name is Chris, and then his middle initial is P. And then bacon.

[Roger McCorney]

Think about it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I mean, Chris is how you imagine it's spelled. Bacon is how you.

[Roger McCorney]

I used to know a crispy.

[Andy Cortez]

I know Chris P. Yeah.

[Roger McCorney]

You know, crispy.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah. You don't say crispy enough, though.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You know what I mean?

[Roger McCorney]

Oh, I should have been like, yo, what up, Crispy pictures.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Crispy P. I also didn't shout out the fact that some of the facts On Clungo here from last round, he was Grintilda's first faithful minion and the secondary antagonist of the Banjo Kazooie series before Piddles took over.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

He is a green Igor, like ogre or a troll who creates machines and other items to aid Gruntilda.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, it's an ogre.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, I thought that was a reptile.

[Roger McCorney]

Oh, yeah. Kind of a giant lizard, alligator type thing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I feel like ogre.

[Tim Geddes]

What's his name again?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Chris P. Bacon.

[Roger McCorney]

Chris P. Chris Bacon.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

There's like a first name, middle initial, last name.

[Roger McCorney]

How crispy do you like your bacon? I'm on a like a seven day. Like, burn that thing.

[Mike]

No.

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

I would say it's 6.5. Dude, I want it like by itself, but like on a sandwich, I want it really crispy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I don't want it crispy at all. Like, I want. I want acid. Pins down. Yes. Let's start off with Andy colors again.

[Mike]

Not a black and white world. I mean, he's like. Yeah. Is he a pig guy or is he fading in it?

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah, I don't know. The head circle.

[Mike]

It's just DC Comics hit event zero hour where everybody got whited out at the end of the comic book.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, come on now.

[Mike]

I'm.

[Roger McCorney]

Have a coke.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Let's see, Tim.

[Andy Cortez]

He's got the little swirly tail, you.

[Tim Geddes]

Know, it's just a classic pig, Sam. Classic pig. Nothing crazy about it.

[Greg Miller]

Nothing crazy.

[Tim Geddes]

It's just a pig.

[Greg Miller]

Zero things crazy about it.

[Tim Geddes]

Zero things crazy about it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, show me Greg's.

[Mike]

Let me tell you guys, Chris Bacon is the coolest pig on the block.

[Andy Cortez]

All right?

[Greg Miller]

Fuck yeah.

[Roger McCorney]

Take it up a notch.

[Mike]

He's got sunglasses, he's got smiles, he's wearing a coat and a T shirt. I'm. You know, I didn't have, you know, I don't have the ability to get his detail that I want to, but that's what I was going for here.

[Andy Cortez]

This man flashes women in alleys. He's on the run from the law.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Show me Chris P. Bacon.

[Mike]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So this is Chris P. Bacon.

[Mike]

My guy's wearing glasses, he's wearing goggles.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

He is indeed a pig. You'll find him dangling in a cage in the temple of the fishes in Jolly Rogers Lagoon, Atlantis. He was part of a contest that ran in an issue of Nintendo Official Magazine uk, where ideas for his name were submitted. The winner, Simon Turk, submitted. Lincoln is his name.

[Mike]

So congrats, Simon.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Turkey Link, Dead rip.

[Greg Miller]

Change his name to Simon Cardi. Damn.

[Tim Geddes]

Look at his nose.

[Roger McCorney]

So we got. Okay, we got a pig by the book. We gotta buy the book pig.

[Greg Miller]

We got, like a swim. A pig.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Is that a Game Boy in his hand?

[Roger McCorney]

That is a Game Boy with the little camera as well. Yeah, Got the eye. Can we go through the three of them?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Roger McCorney]

This is gonna be a tough one. Right down the middle.

[Andy Cortez]

It's good. We're like, right now we're looking at what looks like a character from beyond good and evil. He looks like a lot more muscular.

[Mike]

This is what he looks like before he gets in the water. I'll have you.

[Roger McCorney]

All right.

[Andy Cortez]

We have a little pig.

[Mike]

Yeah, Nudie. A little small eyes, has seen everything. He's got cataracts.

[Tim Geddes]

I don't want to hate. Andy, like, like yours. Kind of looks like a horse more than a pig.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, it looks like a up. Wow.

[Mike]

And Tim says again, it's just a basic ass pig. Tim's pig doesn't go to Britain. He doesn't swim.

[Tim Geddes]

So the question.

[Mike]

Shark dive, boys.

[Greg Miller]

Is it closer to a cool, cool, cool pig or a normal pig? That is a great call. We gotta think about this. Like, he has made sure he's got.

[Mike]

A Game Boy of the camera. That's a cool pig.

[Greg Miller]

Is that cool, though? Is that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bring back crispy bacon. Bring him back up.

[Greg Miller]

Like, does this look cool?

[Andy Cortez]

He has the proportion.

[Greg Miller]

Does he look cool? Everybody, let's have the conversation.

[Andy Cortez]

Which one actually matches the energy of this picture?

[Roger McCorney]

Down the middle.

[Andy Cortez]

No, hold on, hold on.

[Roger McCorney]

Down the middle.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Let's be honest. We know who doesn't have it. So it's between the two.

[Andy Cortez]

Middle.

[Tim Geddes]

Let's.

[Roger McCorney]

Let's say. Who does that? Hold on.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

One, two, three.

[Greg Miller]

Andy.

[Andy Cortez]

We don't even know what Greg's looks like. His chest down, he didn't grow. He didn't draw a belly or legs or arms.

[Mike]

For the record. For the record, if you would have given me 10 more seconds, I would have drawn in British shorts. So there you go. I'm saying you would have. You would have done it.

[Andy Cortez]

You drew a bust. You drew a bust of a pig. I'm honestly rooting for tears.

[Tim Geddes]

Finished pig.

[Roger McCorney]

It's a full body.

[Andy Cortez]

You didn't even finish the head. I still focus on color interpretation.

[Mike]

Weird ass goat.

[Roger McCorney]

He's got a horse snout mixed with a dragon's belly.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I don't like he's the one artist here, by the way.

[Andy Cortez]

I drew a full body. I'm rooting for Tim because, yes, Greg is doing the like now. You'll. You'll fill in the Blanks. Let me just drop.

[Mike]

I don't. I'm just playing the game, everybody.

[Greg Miller]

For real. Well, Greg is a cool one, and he keeps on saying that he's wearing a leather jacket.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm not even paying attention to what Greg is saying because I'm looking at. But here's my thing, right? And honestly, this should be between myself. Not sure.

[Greg Miller]

But let's talk. Let's have a conversation.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Talking about it. Greg's has clothes on and crispy bacon and the thing. But. But. But Greg has the wrong clothes. So now it's a thing of like. And do I go with the basic pig and Tim.

[Greg Miller]

Tim is more naked than. Than Greg's.

[Andy Cortez]

That's true.

[Mike]

Tim's pig couldn't. Tim's pig would never own a Game Boy or goggles.

[Tim Geddes]

Yes, it would.

[Mike]

Throw your pig back up.

[Roger McCorney]

I like when you sell me on it, too. That's why I like throw your pig back up.

[Mike]

Don't be afraid, Barrett. This pig.

[Tim Geddes]

This kid is playing adventure kids.

[Mike]

This is just a pig laying on its back waiting for belly rubs.

[Andy Cortez]

No, actually, this is not a cheating pig whatsoever. It matches more of the energy of crispy bacon, though.

[Mike]

No, it doesn't. No, it doesn't. No, it doesn't.

[Tim Geddes]

Crispy bacon is not cool.

[Andy Cortez]

Actually, I do need. Need Greg to win.

[Mike]

Have you gone to a farm and seen a pig in British shorts with a Game Boy and goggles?

[Roger McCorney]

No, you haven't.

[Andy Cortez]

Can you bring up Greg's. Can you bring up Greg's?

[Greg Miller]

Because I have glasses. Greg has glasses. The wrong glasses.

[Andy Cortez]

I need Greg to win. So underneath where he didn't draw, there are British underwear. You just don't see it.

[Mike]

And I'll let you guys know just because I need to protect the company. I know we all want to have fun here. Whatever. You're all getting dangerously short. Close to fat shaming. When you're saying that he's not cool. So I just wanted to put that out. Vote that crispy bacon. The real Chris isn't cool because he's fat. Roger. Is that what it's about?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Damn.

[Andy Cortez]

No, obviously it's because he's British. If I were. If I were on the panel, I would vote for Tim, but I need Greg to win.

[Roger McCorney]

Well, don't influence us now. Yeah, come on.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, now you don't want influence from the mike.

[Roger McCorney]

I. I'm taking no influence at all. I'm calling down the middle. I'm calling him right down the middle.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, let's start off well.

[Andy Cortez]

Tim can't even win Anyway, it's a final round, right?

[Mike]

No, no, we have one more round.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Let's start off with Mike.

[Roger McCorney]

Yes. I'm happy to say that I call things right down the middle. Okay. When I see it, I know it. And when I get sold on it, I feel it. But it was Tim Getty. Thank you, Tim Getty.

[Tim Geddes]

Thank you, Mike. Right down the middle.

[Roger McCorney]

Right down the middle.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

For me, this is a really tough one. Like, a really, really tough one because. Because portrait mode does come down to the question of accuracy. Who had the closer drawing?

[Andy Cortez]

No, it doesn't.

[Mike]

It's like when you see him bullshitting, bullshitting, bullshitting, bullshitting.

[Andy Cortez]

You're trying to convince yourself that this is a serious mode.

[Roger McCorney]

Right down the middle.

[Tim Geddes]

The fuck are we talking about?

[Roger McCorney]

Right down the middle.

[Tim Geddes]

This pig was man sized with a jacket.

[Mike]

Your pig was just a pig.

[Greg Miller]

So I see the arguments from both sides, right, Greg, I understand that yours is the only one that had glasses, but it was the wrong glasses, right? You, you had just a generic little pig. It didn't have the shorts, didn't have the Game Boy, but it embodied more of the spirit of that character. And I think Greg went the wrong direction. So I'm going with Tim.

[Roger McCorney]

Wow.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Wow.

[Andy Cortez]

All right.

[Mike]

Notorious Fat Shamer. Roger goes against the Fat Shamer.

[Greg Miller]

You know me, Barrett. That's why I lost it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Can I get a quick score recap from you?

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, right now, tied for second place, two people, you know, who are just.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Just scraping by are the equivalent of a second graders giving drawings to their parents that don't even go up on the fridge. It is Andy Cortez for Team Purple and Tim Geddes for team orange with.

[Andy Cortez]

40 points each and in the lead. Clearly a lot of people call him this ages Picasso. It is Greg Miller for team blue with 80 points, but it is still anybody's game is in.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That brings us to the end of the regular round of torture mode and into the bonus round.

[Andy Cortez]

This is where it all turns around, called Roger's Shovelware.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now this is what we need to do. I want to pass the boards, the white boards down to the contestants here. Contestants, you can shut down your laptops or not shut them down, but close them down. Close your laptops.

[Andy Cortez]

Uninstall chrome.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Actually, I've asked the one and only Roger McCorney.

[Greg Miller]

Hi.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

To create fake key art for Steam games that don't exist. I have four rounds of Steam games that I'm going to bring up here. Your task is to write down which game you think is the fake Video game among the shovelware.

[Mike]

Is there only one every time or.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Well, yes. Well, do draw, like, a cross for me. And then, like, do like, 1, 2, 3, 4. So, like, you're gonna write down your four games on the thing on the same board.

[Mike]

Do you want me to go?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

No, I'll go through all the rounds. Yeah, like that.

[Mike]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And then 1, 2, 3, 4, and then just write down your things.

[Mike]

What am I writing? Fake or real or.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We'll get there in a second. So, yeah, your tasks. Write down which game you think is the fake video game among the shovelware. We'll go through all four rounds and reveal your answers at the end. Each correct answer is worth 20 points. Contestants, are you ready?

[Roger McCorney]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Barrett, bring up the first round. So stop. We are asking which one of these is fake?

[Roger McCorney]

I've played a couple of these.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Is it A, furry backrooms, B, backroom backshots. C, Holly backrooms, or D, backrooms Lost.

[Tim Geddes]

Oh, my God.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

One of these.

[Roger McCorney]

Don't look to me. The expert of the back rooms.

[Mike]

You know, I'll put out there. Really great. Really great stuff here.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you.

[Mike]

What a great round. What a great thing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is all Roger right here. Let's move on to the next one, the second round. Which one of these is fake? Ah, Is it A call center tycoon? Is it B, Loving father simulator? Is it C, Gotcha Addict simulator? Or is it D, virgin simulator in there? Only one of these is fake. Which one is fake?

[Greg Miller]

This is so much fun. This is the best. This is the. Every time you tell me portrait mode is back, I'm always excited just for this. Oh, this is my favorite stuff.

[Roger McCorney]

What you get from portrait mode for.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Remember, every right community is worth 20 points here. Angry at you. You can come back here if you're Andy or him.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Third round. Which one of these is fake? Is it A, Angel Legion Beyond Fantasy? Is it B, Crypto clickers? Is it C, Cupcake clicker? Or is it D, Kiwi clicker? Which one of these is fake?

[Andy Cortez]

Too many meta games here.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

They're writing down their answers. Let's bring up the last round, the fourth and final round. Which one of these is fake? Is it A car wash td? Is it B, Champs td? Is it C Krampus Tower defense? Or is it D Defense? Tower simulator?

[Mike]

Roger, you did a great job.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you.

[Roger McCorney]

It's like one of those fun games of, like, now you get to pinpoint, like, Roger's talent here of, like, blending in, but also, like, he stands out. But does he even got it like them? Like, does he got, like, the crazy.

[Greg Miller]

Bottom, or do I have to tone down my abilities? Because I look around, I'm like, oh, shit.

[Roger McCorney]

Exactly.

[Greg Miller]

Mine looks a little worse.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, contestants have all their answers written down. We're going to rewind this back to round number one. Baird, if you can bring up the four games that we had for round number one, once again, it was A, Furry Back rooms. B, Backroom Back shots. C, Poly Backroom D, Backrooms Lost. Tim, what was your answer for round number one?

[Tim Geddes]

So I. You know, you got to think about Roger here. You got to think about what Roger's capable of and what goes through his mind. I'm like, out of all of these, I can't see him doing the back shots, and I feel like somebody. I'm gonna go with furry back rooms because that looks like the type of logo that Roger would, like, put a lot of effort into to shock us.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay, Andy.

[Roger McCorney]

Okay.

[Andy Cortez]

I went with C Poly back rooms because I just imagine him downloading the Mario 64 font.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg, what you got?

[Mike]

I went with D. Backrooms lost because it seemed like the most real game.

[Roger McCorney]

Oh, can I guess?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, go for it.

[Roger McCorney]

I'm going to go with backroom back shots, because I don't know if Steve's letting you put back shots on him. So we'll see.

[Greg Miller]

Are we revealing now?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

Can I reveal?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, go for it.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. It's kind of up that you guys wouldn't think that I couldn't do back shots. Of course I'm doing back shots.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The correct answer is indeed B, backroom back shots, meaning nobody gets.

[Greg Miller]

I looked at Blessing, and I was like, do you think backroom back shots is a little much? He's like, ah, you're fine.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I think I also was like, ah, it's too obvious.

[Mike]

That's the problem, though, with steam, where you're like, I don't know.

[Greg Miller]

You can't tell. It was great finding the specific photo of somebody bending over for the back shots. Yeah, no, no, I just found someone bending over, and I also added a little bit of motion blur for, you know, similar.

[Tim Geddes]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, Barry, we can bring up the second round once again. Again, which one of these was fake? Let's start off with Greg. Greg, what was your answer for this one?

[Mike]

I said, c. Gotcha. Attic Simulator. Addict Simulator.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy.

[Andy Cortez]

I have the same C. Gotcha. Attic Simulator.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim.

[Tim Geddes]

I put Loving Father Simulator.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And the answer is.

[Greg Miller]

Tim is right. It is B, Loving Father Simulator.

[Tim Geddes]

Yeah, I thought that because that and the Virgin. I'm Like, I feel like it's one of these two.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right.

[Tim Geddes]

Great job, though.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Let's bring up the third round. Which one of these is fake? Andy, what was your answer?

[Andy Cortez]

A lot of metagaming here, but I went with a. Angel Legion.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim.

[Tim Geddes]

I also went with Angel Legion.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg.

[Mike]

I went C. Damn, Roger, if you.

[Roger McCorney]

Made a that's so fucking cool, bro. That'd be crazy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Roger.

[Greg Miller]

The answer is C. Cupcake clicker.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That is 20 points for Greg Miller.

[Greg Miller]

A play off of a cookie cutter.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Sealing the deal here with his points.

[Greg Miller]

Great job.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Our fourth and final round beard. We can bring it up. Which one of these is fake? Greg, what was your answer?

[Mike]

I said B. I wanted to say C so bad, but I was like, B. I don't B. I went B. Champs. T.D.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy.

[Andy Cortez]

I went with a car wash. Tim.

[Tim Geddes]

I. I went Krampus.

[Greg Miller]

And Tim is correct because it is Krampus. Yeah. Krampus tower defense right there. That's the HD version right there.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, yeah.

[Greg Miller]

That's beautiful.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. Thanks so much.

[Andy Cortez]

Thank you. Great.

[Mike]

Roger.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Roger.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you. That was a fun.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Barrett, what's the final score?

[Greg Miller]

Oh, shit.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The final score.

[Andy Cortez]

In last place. He can't drop for shit. It is one. Andy the Nitro Rifle Cortez for Team Purple with 40 points. Just a little bit ahead of him.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It is Timothy motherfucking Geddes for team.

[Andy Cortez]

Orange with 80 points. But the winner of this week's kind of funny game showdown Portrait mode edition.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Is the Picasso of our generation.

[Andy Cortez]

It is Greg Miller for team blue.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

With 100 points, we can bring up the star standings. Of course, Greg Miller's victory here means he does earn team Blue a second star for the season, bringing him up to two. Team Orange, of course, still in the lead with three stars total.

[Mike]

Not for long. I'm coming for two of those.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And two.

[Mike]

Two. All right, stars.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And Andy, of course, leader of team purple, still sitting at zero stars for the season, of course, Mike. Roger. Thank you guys for joining me. Right here on Mike. What do we do? We call it down the middle. Call it down the middle. As we do on fortune mode each and every season. Contestants, thank you guys so much for participating in torture. Audience, thank you so much for not being too mean to the judges. Of course. This has all the hate they deserve. Game showdown, your nerdy trivia show. We'll be back next week with another episode. Until next time. Peace out.
