Transcript

[Tim Gettys]

Mike and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other. When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a 4 liter jug. When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping. Oh, come on. They called a truce for their holiday and used Expedia trip planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip. Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

[Mike]

Whatever.

[Tim Gettys]

You were made to outdo your holidays. We were made to help organize the competition. Expedia made to travel. What's up? And welcome back to the Kind of Funny Games cast for Friday, September 26, 2025. Of course. I'm your host, Tim Gettys. I'm joined today by a crazy big crew of people here. We got Roger Pokorny. Hi.

[Tim Gettys]

Every game coming out in October 2025. We're gonna go through every single game with a release date on the Game Informer release calendar and talk about some highlights we're looking forward to and see if maybe there's some surprises that we didn't know about, little hidden gems or maybe some games that we have seen before in an indie direct or something that we forgot about. Then we see, oh, that's that game. Really cool stuff. And we do it every day here on the Kind of Funny Games. Guys talk about cool stuff. Video games, everybody. Whether it's reviews, previews, or just topics like this one you can watch live on YouTube, Twitch and podcast services around the globe. If you love what we do, you can go above and beyond. Get the Kind of Funny membership, get all of our shows ad free and you get a daily exclusive. Greg Way. Today's Greg Way is all about Greg being very passionate. Talking about having to turn down video games that he wants to review but. But can't. For what reasons?

[Greg Miller]

Or do I?

[Tim Gettys]

You'll have to find out. Or does he? We'll have to find out. I want to listen to that.

[Mike]

I want to know if there's anyone who could make more time in the day. It's Greg Miller. He could do it.

[Tim Gettys]

He'll figure it out.

[Greg Miller]

Can you imagine if we could get a double day?

[Mike]

You could do it.

[Greg Miller]

I'd love a double day.

[Andy Cortez]

Double day would be awesome.

[Tim Gettys]

Double day would be awesome. Could be any. A double night, you know, uncounted hours.

[Mike]

Double work day would be great.

[Greg Miller]

That's what I'm saying. I'M not saying I'm hang out with everybody family.

[Mike]

Andy stay here with me and Greg.

[Greg Miller]

A little bit longer. Let's skate.

[Tim Gettys]

Little house even for you we're an 11 person business all about live talk shows. Game games daily was all about the Xbox ally pricing and Doug Bowser retiring from Nintendo after this we got game showdown returning. Yeah you're gonna want to watch it just like every episode but if you want to watch people get pissed off this is one for you.

[Blessing]

The most popular game.

[Tim Gettys]

Our most popular game returns then after that baby steps. It's a race. The top versus Giant bomb. That's going to be a must watch stream. Sure to be fun if you're a kind of funny member like I was saying you can get today's Greg way Thank you to our Patreon producers Carl Jacobs, Omega, Buster and Delaney. Thank you. The psalm twining today we're brought to you by Shady Rays and factor but we'll tell you about that later. Let's get to the topic of the show. Every game coming out in October. It's very funny because last month when we did this of every game coming in September I was saying, I started off saying like personally I know there's a lot of big banger games coming out September but like seems like it's gonna be a slow month for you boy. And God I was wrong because we that we just had gotten the Hollow night silk song announcement there and I was like that's probably not going to be for me. Here I am, you know, 40 something hours later and then Haiti's getting its surprise release date within the month. Like there's just been a lot of stuff but we're starting off October with a big one. October 2nd, Ghost of Yot huge. Our review is out now. What'd you give it?

[Blessing]

9.5 out of 10.

[Tim Gettys]

Would you give it a 9? Andy, did you have him touched it?

[Greg Miller]

He hosted it but he did a great job.

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, thank you.

[Tim Gettys]

I really like that Greg Wayne job.

[Greg Miller]

How great that was. Yeah, well according to blessing. No, because an 8 on our scale means garbage.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's no critical thinking allowed.

[Greg Miller]

Crazy people should be excited.

[Tim Gettys]

Of course.

[Greg Miller]

Yes. I think there's no use beating a dead horse.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Check out the review though. That is on the game.

[Greg Miller]

Remember, remember that? Yeah, go get that. But yeah, of course be stoked for this. Go get it.

[Tim Gettys]

This is also October 2nd. We have a slew of other games as well. We got honorism. This is a PC game. Dive into the dreamy world of craria in honorism. Join Carol on a magical quest to find her lost plushie. Bun Bun Bun bun. Don't know about this one. Any, any, any thoughts whatsoever?

[Greg Miller]

No, never heard of it. No, no, I looked at the Steam page. Not for me. I put a napkin on it.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, okay.

[Blessing]

Not happening.

[Greg Miller]

You. That's one of your last.

[Mike]

I don't know. Oh, never heard it. Put a napkin on it last time. Now you keep it going.

[Tim Gettys]

Keep it going. And then October 2nd, another game that when we last did this, we didn't even know was happening. We Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 coming to Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. These are both. You can buy them digitally or you can buy them physically with the one.

[Blessing]

40 bucks each.

[Tim Gettys]

40 bucks each. 70 physically combined. Digital as well. Combined, right?

[Blessing]

I think so.

[Tim Gettys]

I think so. You can get that the bundle there too expensive. I mean I want to play it.

[Blessing]

I want to play it. I've never played two before in my life.

[Tim Gettys]

The thing about it is and we'll talk about this I'm sure next week or whenever we end up talking about mar. We're running out of time. It's next week for Mario Galaxy. We'll talk about at some point because yeah, there is definitely a price conversation there of how insane it is that Nintendo would charge this. However, thinking about it after the initial fact for me, I'm like I was really up in arms about the price of it compared to Metroid Prime Remastered. And I was like well that was 40 as well. And I'm like if we get that level of upgrade for these games like to the Switch and specifically Switch to. I'm like, I don't love the pricing. I think that these 15 year old games should be cheaper. But I also think the quality of the games with how Nintendo is presenting them like Metroid Prime Remastered I think does deserve $40. It's awesome. So we'll see if Galaxy and Galaxy to have that.

[Blessing]

There's new storybook pages and that's remastered.

[Greg Miller]

That's the partial remake.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm soaked for this one. I just don't think I'll be able to get to it with Yote.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Having just come out.

[Greg Miller]

Same thing for me. There's so much going on. I've never played Galaxy 2. I'd love to but I'm not gonna be able to prioritize it in the October slash end of September. We're now.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, I'm very, very excited. I. I need to make time for Galaxy 2 because I haven't replayed that one in so long. Galaxy 1. I replayed when the 3D All Stars collection.

[Andy Cortez]

That was my first time playing it.

[Tim Gettys]

And so yeah, and you're going to love to.

[Andy Cortez]

I can't freak.

[Tim Gettys]

You're going to freaking love to.

[Andy Cortez]

I mean, well, I can wait because.

[Tim Gettys]

YOTE will take priority. And then October 3rd we have Digimon Story Time Stranger. This one's coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox and PC.

[Blessing]

Are you excited for this one?

[Greg Miller]

No, I'm not.

[Tim Gettys]

And I'm happy that Digimon games are good and that people are excited for them and that they've found this like kind of grasp of the video game side of things because they didn't always have it like it was at a certain point kind of like more IP slop games coming out. Whereas now it's like, oh, these are like actually critically, I don't want to say renowned, but like well received RPGs. So I think it kind of has gotten out of just the Digimon fan thing. Now there are actual RPG fans that are looking forward to this and previews have been great blessing. Really enjoyed it.

[Greg Miller]

Snow13 super chat says Digimon Stories Time Stranger might be my hidden gem this month.

[Blessing]

Oh.

[Greg Miller]

After listening to Bless talk about it, I tried the demo and I think it has the juice.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. And it's funny. Like this is just dumb Tim anecdotes here, but my, my boy's friend group text chat. My friend Vince was texting like hey, who's picking up Digimon Stories Time Stranger and it blew my mind. I was like the fact that the game is on anyone's radar, like that.

[Greg Miller]

Is like Vince isn't like the biggest.

[Tim Gettys]

Video game he plays, especially recently. Like he's been playing a lot. Like he just beat Final Fantasy 16 and like he beat Expedition 33 and 7 remake and stuff like that. So he is I think, I guess an RPG player. But for him to make this jump, like that's a pretty big one.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing]

And this game looks gorgeous. This is my first time looking at it. Honestly, this is kind of crazy. Wow. Okay. I'm not going to play it but I'm happy for everybody. We will try to get a stream together and show it off to you guys. That is on the calendar right now.

[Tim Gettys]

But for Digimon. Yeah.

[Blessing]

But yeah, things change. But yeah, we are trying to make that happen for.

[Tim Gettys]

For sure. Yeah.

[Blessing]

Hell yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

Then we have Battlesuit Aces. This is coming to PS5 Switch and PC on October 7th. From the creators of Battle Chef Brigade comes Battle Suit Aces, a charming card battling RPG where you Recruit Befriend and upgrade. Mech pilots on a heartfelt hunt for alien super weapons. The relic suits that sound like it's interesting to any of y'? All?

[Greg Miller]

No. Battle chef brigade Brigade. I remember having heat coming in and I know it found an audience, but I remember trying that and that never being for me. So I can't imagine this being is. I watch the Steam page stuff here.

[Tim Gettys]

Well, if not for you, maybe King of Meat would be for you. Greg. King of Meat is coming to PS5.

[Greg Miller]

This is the biggest mic game I've ever seen. He wants to torture people.

[Tim Gettys]

Competing a co op party platformer pitting up to four players against community built dungeons filled with puzzles to solve.

[Greg Miller]

This is gonna be a nightmare.

[Tim Gettys]

With all that's a stream, this one.

[Mike]

Looks like a ton of fun. Fall guys meets a lot of user generated content. Yeah, I'm into that for sure.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, that seems pretty neat. I never.

[Greg Miller]

Have we seen this before. We have. This has been on a couple of the showcases where they've run through and done it. It stood out to us.

[Blessing]

Joey played this one right? Am I crazy?

[Andy Cortez]

Oh, shit. I think you're right.

[Blessing]

Yeah, she went to an event or something like that.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, you're right. I think actually this does look like a blast.

[Blessing]

Okay, we'll try to get a stream together.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, I love that I put me in SOPA. Tale of the Stolen Potato coming October 7th to Xbox Series, Xbox One and PC. Miho steps into the pantry to fetch a potato for his grandma and falls into a magical world of wonders. Meet quirky characters, venture through the depths of South America and learn the importance of the things we pass along in this unforgettable emotional narrative adventure. Greg, will you be there day one?

[Greg Miller]

I will be. I previewed this one, if you remember, back at the Xbox GDC event. I don't even think it was this last year. I think it was two years ago or whatever where I jumped in and played this. And it's a very cute game. It looks very much like one of the animated movies you'd expect to catch out there. Yeah, jumping in there, it seems cool. I remember the demo didn't blow me away. I wasn't like floored by it, but I was interested enough that I. I'm trying to open up a new window here to see if it's on game pass because that's an easy get.

[Andy Cortez]

Then SOPA means soup, Tim.

[Greg Miller]

Did you know that?

[Tim Gettys]

I did. Okay. Yeah. I like soup. King makers. Coming October 8th to Early Access on PC. Go back in time To a war torn medieval era with a vast arsenal of modern weapons. Change the course of history and save the future in this epic action strategy sandbox. Mike, you looking for this?

[Mike]

This? I remember we saw this and we're like, what the hell's going on? Giant massive medieval battlefield. Guy shows up with the AK47, right?

[Blessing]

This is Pal World.

[Mike]

We'll be trying this. We'll be. I'll be trying this.

[Blessing]

Well, if you're excited about this and you want more of it, there is a movie in development by story.

[Tim Gettys]

Fantastic. Yeah.

[Blessing]

So that's huge. That's huge right there.

[Tim Gettys]

That is actually hilarious. Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

Quick shot at SOPA is game pass. So there you go, Day one. You can pick that up.

[Tim Gettys]

Very cool. Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

And I will.

[Tim Gettys]

That'd be. Day one's. October 7th.

[Greg Miller]

I will be.

[Andy Cortez]

What was that?

[Greg Miller]

That was Yoda talking normal.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, will be.

[Greg Miller]

I will.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. It's hard to do that sentence. That's the hard sentence.

[Greg Miller]

Also, though, October 7th, skate.

[Andy Cortez]

And.

[Greg Miller]

And we're getting a skate update and we're getting a bate in.

[Mike]

We.

[Greg Miller]

It's Halloween.

[Tim Gettys]

You know what?

[Andy Cortez]

Your avatar looks so good, Greg.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you.

[Andy Cortez]

I was really impressed.

[Greg Miller]

A lot of, you know, Anthony Carboni is like, I'm going to sue you. And it's like, anthony, I can't help it that all of us look. I can't help it. You can say that I'm the. Like, I don't know if I'm the final evolution of Carboni or if he's the. If he's. I'm middle. So there's something going on there, though.

[Tim Gettys]

That you were God. Carboni is so cool. He keeps popping up in my TikTok and stuff. And just footage of him hosting the Fantastic Four red carpet. And he looked so good. Bless him. Next up, Andy, what do we have?

[Andy Cortez]

Absolum.

[Tim Gettys]

And that's how you say it, everyone. Absol. Not Absolum, PlayStation 5, PS4, Switch and PC. This comes October 9th. Fight as the Outcast heroes of Talum in a fierce battle to retake magic from Sun King's Azra's grasp. In Absolum, an original roguelike Beat him up by Dot Emu. I'm telling y' all right now, this is one that y' all need to keep your eyes on. The demo was so freaking good for this. I do think it's coming out at a very bad time for that type of game, specifically with. Well, it was Hades. It changed with Hades having just come out. And also just like indie games in general, there's just so many high quality ones that I do think this is gonna kind of get overlooked. But I'd keep my eyes on it for sure.

[Andy Cortez]

It previewed really well.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, like it was great.

[Andy Cortez]

I mean the. I think the demo still. Yeah, you can still download the demo on Steam. I'm not sure about consoles or not, but the. Yeah, it previewed incredibly well. And that's when that I happen to see those previews in a time where my brain was like, oh, connect that. Get that on your fantasy critic. And it's like the one time my brain did that, the one time I fell into that habit. But yeah, it seems to be really, really highly anticipated by a lot of people who are stoked about not only just dead cells games, roguelites. The art style is freaking gorgeous. The key art's great, but everybody who's played it is like, holy, this is gonna be a big one.

[Tim Gettys]

And again.Emu, man, just killing it. Right. Like I feel like then this is a new I is cool because we look at things like Shredder's Revenge, like similar styled games, but like this being their own thing, adding the. The roguelike kind of genre to it all. It works.

[Andy Cortez]

And I already pre ordered the physical switch version.

[Blessing]

Wow.

[Tim Gettys]

Hell yeah. That's awesome. Believe.

[Greg Miller]

But.

[Andy Cortez]

And the art just looks so d.

[Blessing]

I think, I think. I think the Rog light element of it is getting me excited.

[Tim Gettys]

Right.

[Blessing]

If this was just a side scroller, I'd be like, yeah, whatever, like a diamond dozen. But the fact that there's a little bit more depth to this. That's. That's. I'm gonna try it out. I'm excited.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. When I first previewed it, I did the preview of that and then you got Ninja Guy and Ragebound.

[Blessing]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

At the same time. And I like walked out of just being like, God damn daddy man. Yeah. They're just. They're a publisher out there that I'm like, I just trust them. At this point.

[Andy Cortez]

Who McKay asks, what was the name again? It's it. We always thought it was pronounced Absolim. It's the word absolutes. But instead of the T at the end, there's a letter M. Good call.

[Greg Miller]

And remember, the benefit of the show is to have Steam open and Wishlist. All this. It helps the dev so much to have it. That's what we all have here as we go through and are adding things to our wishlist.

[Tim Gettys]

And that is a great transition to we. We've been doing episodes of gamescast Timeout games that we've Wish listed. I haven't done mine at any point. But again, that I wish listed a long time ago is by Sweet Carol. And I cannot believe it's coming out October 9th. And when I say that, I mean I don't actually believe it's coming out October 9th. Like I haven't heard anything about this in a very long time. This is a chilling narrative horror game inspired by classic animation movies. Can we get the trailer for Whoa. Created by Chris Darrell, who did the remothered series Follow the last known whereabouts of Carol Simmons to uncover the dark truth behind the Bunny hall orphanage. This is done in a Disney princess style of animation and the gameplay looks like this as well. If you can skim forward a bit. Barrett. It's kind of mind blowing. And this is one of those games, indie or otherwise, you look at and you're like, I have no faith that this is a playable real thing. But then you see it. There was a demo out and it seems pretty cool. I don't know if how long it's gonna be. I don't know if it can last. But yeah, taking this kind of art style and making a horror adventure game is something I'm very interested in.

[Greg Miller]

I mean, I believe it. The release date. Like, I'm in my inbox. I have an Aug. 22 press release about it. Like, this isn't something that seems generated. It's actually out there.

[Blessing]

It's on Steam too.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

But like, look at it. Like, that's gameplay.

[Andy Cortez]

This is insane.

[Tim Gettys]

Looking so cool.

[Mike]

Wow.

[Tim Gettys]

Moving on to another October and that.

[Andy Cortez]

Was called By Sweet Carol.

[Tim Gettys]

By Sweet Carol. C R O L E Y E We were here together. Also coming October 9th. This is coming to Switch. As we explore these frozen waste, misfortune strikes once again. Through the fierce blizzard. A flare lights the sky. Can we make it back together?

[Blessing]

Yeah. This is a port. So this game has already been on Steam and everything.

[Mike]

So it's a really good co op puzzle game. If you're looking for a fun co op puzzler, this is the type of game that like Blessing and Greg are puzzle champions. Would be really good.

[Greg Miller]

Escape Academy. Yeah, put it on there. Let's go.

[Mike]

You guys would love this stuff.

[Tim Gettys]

Yuko Replay Lee finally coming out. We have a release date for this. The long awaited release date for this PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S. Switch to NPC. October 9th. A demo's out now. I played it last week. Yuka Laylee never grabbed me. Yuka Replay Lee seems to be fixing a lot of the problems that I and many other People had with the. The first one and now the soundtrack is fully actually orchestrated. Like they're really going out of their way to like add a lot of just quality of life things to this but also content obviously it looks way better.

[Blessing]

What was the issue with Ukulele when it first came out? Was it just like a bunch of quality of life stuff?

[Tim Gettys]

It's a bunch of quality of life stuff and the kind of moveset that you have on, especially in the early game was kind of lacking what people expected. But yeah, they've really, really seemed to like up the ante on all that stuff. So yeah, I'm very fascinated to see where the reviews lie on this one. Yeah. But yeah, we won't have to wait long because we're a couple weeks away then. October 10th Mike Battlefield 6 I can't wait.

[Mike]

Tim. We saw that little teaser of the campaign and that's going to be a big deal for me because we already know the multiplayer is hitting like the multiplayer is so much fun. We had an absolute blast playing it and streaming it all these past couple of beta weekends. But the single player campaign has me.

[Tim Gettys]

I.

[Mike]

Okay, take it all back. I say that it has me intrigued. I'm super excited. It is really the Battlefield portal, which is the user generated content. What that's going to create is going to be nuts. Like if there's really something that you should be the most intrigued in, the most sold on, the most excited for it is this new evil Evolved elevated, worked on Battlefield Portable. Kids, people will be able to create their own content and it's like on a new level.

[Tim Gettys]

Right.

[Mike]

And so what they will be able to create will kind of dictate the future of Battlefield and what will happen here. That's really exciting to me. Multiplayer is good, single player, that'll be fine. You'll get through, you'll have fun. I'm looking forward to it. But that Battlefield Portal stuff, that's where the bread and butter is going to be. It's going to be nuts.

[Tim Gettys]

Any hype for Battlefield otherwise from anyone?

[Andy Cortez]

But I'm stoked for the campaign for sure. The, you know, I'm always really iffy on the multiplayer, but I saw gameplay of somebody doing like the most God tier level medic stuff where they were just. They were the medic class and they were it. I like we talk about what players DPS and KD ratio is. This was like how many reses per second can you get? And this guy was just like running around, dude. And I was like man, I want to do that, like there was something really fascinating about being in a big scale battle, seeing four your teammates go down. Why is there alligator on the table?

[Mike]

Don't talk about it.

[Blessing]

Don't talk about.

[Greg Miller]

They spent a lot of money on it for a thing they never did. So now they need to justify the purpose right off.

[Andy Cortez]

Gotcha. Okay.

[Greg Miller]

Anyway, I buy Wolverine claws and I get, I leave the office. I get yelled at. I hear on Games Daily. All right. Thank you for defending me, Tim.

[Blessing]

His name is.

[Greg Miller]

You had a whole conversation on Games Daily about how Nick got mad at my claws and. Oh, you're talking about yourself, you idiot.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing]

Yeah, but he was, he was up. Yeah, he's having a good day.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Disguise seven complete. Coming to switch two on October 10th.

[Blessing]

We were trying to get that on Fantasy. They wouldn't let that happen.

[Tim Gettys]

Go hang out with Nick.

[Blessing]

Partial remake.

[Mike]

Yeah, that's a partial remake. We look deep into it.

[Blessing]

Not.

[Tim Gettys]

They literally ruled it.

[Blessing]

Now they're talking about it.

[Tim Gettys]

They're talking about it every time. They're not anymore. Dreams of another. Coming to PS5, PS VR2 and PC. October 10th. A third person exploration action game built around the philosophical theme. No creation without destruction. Rather than destroying objects by shooting your shots, materialize. Create the world. Oh yeah, this is the, the one by that like, cool dude.

[Greg Miller]

That cool dude.

[Tim Gettys]

You know, he has a name. That's just one name. I think it is. M O T O I pulling that out of my ass. Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

We were like, what a, you know what, What a cool commentary on the destruction and what? You know, it's one of those type of games.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

I thought it looked really fast. It kind of reminded me of dreams. Right?

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. That's my thing. Watching it. It definitely.

[Tim Gettys]

Hey, I was close.

[Greg Miller]

It looks like one of those things that looks like an interesting demo. How many hours would I want to spend in there? I gotta skate.

[Mike]

I gotta skate, bro.

[Tim Gettys]

Little Nightmares Enhanced Edition and Little Nightmares 3.

[Blessing]

Kind of weird.

[Tim Gettys]

Dropping. October 10th.

[Blessing]

Kind of weird. They're doing them both at the same time. Yeah, I think.

[Greg Miller]

Well, it's a little Nightmare's Day.

[Blessing]

Okay. Yeah, I guess.

[Tim Gettys]

Is it? No, like, of course it's like, of course it is.

[Greg Miller]

It's a little.

[Blessing]

Yeah, it's a weird thing they're doing both at the same time. I think they should spread those out. But I, I, I'm very excited for little nightmares 3. A little trepidatious new team. People that did the quarry and stuff.

[Tim Gettys]

Right.

[Blessing]

So it's, it's, it's also co op. So it's like, is it gonna hold up? But either way, I like a good little Nightmares game. Always is a good time at the household. So definitely gonna be trying this one out and I'm excited for Cool G to try it out.

[Tim Gettys]

He's so excited.

[Blessing]

Very excited. He's very excited.

[Tim Gettys]

Pixel Junk Eden 2 coming to PS5, 4 and PC on October 10th. Return to the Guardians of Light and Sound in this hypnotic platforming adventure from the award winning Pixel Junk series. Does anyone have any experience with Pixel Junk?

[Blessing]

I downloaded on my PSP and then.

[Greg Miller]

I. I was gonna say no. I have extensive experience with Pixel Junk as a franchise, as a brand. Right. The Eden Monsters, all that jazz. That was such a PlayStation thing when I was on the PlayStation team and then running the PlayStation team. Eden never did it for me. So I'm not like stoked about that. That was a movement for a while. Again, when we're talking about like that up crop of like, oh, indie devs. And what does that mean? Yeah, Dylan, who's the pixel guy? Dylan somebody other Efron.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

I've always been aware of it and it's just been. It feels like it's been a staple for a while. But you. I would look at Pixel Junk. I was like, I. If you asked me today, is that a game or a developer or a publisher or a podcast, I wouldn't really know.

[Greg Miller]

You know.

[Tim Gettys]

Hilarious. Pixel Junk, the podcast.

[Andy Cortez]

Great.

[Tim Gettys]

Not the art style I was. Oh my God, they got a football kicking minigame. That's Charlie Brown.

[Blessing]

Charlie Brown.

[Tim Gettys]

Charlie Brown. It always blows me away that Snoopy is in Peanuts. Like, I know that he is. But Snoopy and Woodstock are so cool. You talk about this all the time.

[Greg Miller]

Anytime.

[Blessing]

Anytime.

[Mike]

I'm going to be real. Seeing this football footage and baseball footage.

[Blessing]

You replace like the beautiful 4K footage that they've created with Snoopy, dude, you.

[Tim Gettys]

Should check it out beautifully. 4K rendered animation. I'm telling you, sometimes there's hallow Woodstocks. I'm like, is that do an ax in there.

[Andy Cortez]

Go. Beautifully rendered.

[Blessing]

Why do you like Woodstock? What's his deal? Why do you like Woodstock?

[Greg Miller]

Just a shout out to. To get this back on track about this Snoopy game to Game Mill Entertainment.

[Blessing]

Oh, yeah.

[Greg Miller]

This is a diva. This is a publisher that as like I couldn't tell you two things about but like I know them now because I had to reach out for cool Greg's to get the Goosebumps cool.

[Tim Gettys]

Great.

[Greg Miller]

To get the Goosebumps game. Then he cool Greg wanted me to get the Rudolph the red nosed reindeer. Another Game Mill game and Game Mills making.

[Mike]

Dude, this morning I woke up to a text message with my heart blessing out of Yo Ye Jr. And I said to myself, I fucking made it.

[Tim Gettys]

Okay? I made it boys.

[Mike]

Fuck yeah, dude, he's my.

[Tim Gettys]

What number is he?

[Mike]

He's 1.2 right now. He hasn't texted me in weeks.

[Greg Miller]

So what's the story here?

[Andy Cortez]

Called you back.

[Mike]

He texted me because of Magicon and I was just so happy. I was filled. My heart was filled. More importantly, thanks bless for the text.

[Greg Miller]

Did you see Games Daily when Troy Baker FaceTime dude from Kuwait.

[Mike]

That was sick.

[Greg Miller]

Abdul, a fan, original patron, came up to Troy at whatever he's doing in Kuwait. It was like I don't care about you. I care about kind of funny. Which is a ridiculous thing to say while we were alive. I didn't catch it. He texted me again. He goes, the hits keep coming. And I guess he's at a signing right now in Kuwait and somebody brought him the Snowbike. Mike goes big dvd. I'm gonna screenshot it.

[Mike]

Japan, dude, shout out to my guy Kojima's.

[Blessing]

Kojima put it in a thrift shop in Japan.

[Tim Gettys]

That's so good.

[Mike]

Oh dude, just.

[Andy Cortez]

It's unfortunate real quick that I. I dropped down Mike's best friend list and it was probably due to what happened earlier. Roger. We laughed at him for. For saying, roger, figure out this email thing. Roger goes, why? What happened with this email thing? I typed in G nail with an N and I messed up the email so I didn't get the thing. So just figure it out. And we start laughing and he's like, no, you guys okay. He gets really mad at us and he goes, I'm gonna kill you.

[Tim Gettys]

Just dance. 2026 coming everywhere. October 14th. Cool.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, great. Good for you. Still Happening.

[Tim Gettys]

And so is NASCAR 25 still making.

[Greg Miller]

For you NASCAR fans.

[Blessing]

When did these come back?

[Mike]

Oh, dude, NASCAR's back in a big way, bro.

[Blessing]

When? When did they come back, though?

[Mike]

They still make these games every year.

[Blessing]

Like they stopped for a while though.

[Mike]

Yeah, but they're back now.

[Blessing]

Okay.

[Tim Gettys]

You think NASCAR is that they're not F1, you know what I mean? I feel like F1's become like this massive sensation.

[Greg Miller]

Both of them got to be upset they're not cars. You know what I mean? Put a cars back in NASA.

[Blessing]

When you're right, you're right. First NASCAR game in five years. See, I'm locked in.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, you're locked.

[Blessing]

I know my brother.

[Tim Gettys]

Desperate. They're trying anything out here.

[Blessing]

Love nascar.

[Tim Gettys]

Danica Patrick still doing stuff.

[Blessing]

Was she nascar?

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, yeah, she was a racer. She raced and I think I just.

[Blessing]

Godaddy. I just know.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah. Anti Vaxxer, I believe.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, I was gonna say I think she's a wrongin, but she was in Sonic Transform.

[Tim Gettys]

Racing ain't a racer. Okay. Rising heat on PC. Coming October 14th. Fight your way through the Rising heat. A gladiator style space spectacle bankrolled by the extraterrestrial elite. Mike, what is this? Mike, It's Rising Heat on PC.

[Mike]

Rising Heat. It sounds lit, Tim.

[Tim Gettys]

Not gonna lie to you.

[Mike]

It sounds really dope.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, is it like a schmup?

[Mike]

Okay, yeah, kind of a top down. Shoot them up is right. Yeah, yeah.

[Greg Miller]

Next evolution of. I'll add it to the. Oh, it's already on my wish list.

[Blessing]

[Greg Miller]

Rising Heat.

[Mike]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

And then October 15th, my mom's birthday. Ball pit comes out. Brick breaking ball using base building survival Roguelite.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm trying to like highlight something here at Greg's.

[Greg Miller]

Just hitting the desk. This is one of those things where Roger, you picked it for fantasy. And I was like, what the is this? And I went and looked at. I was like, wait a second, Roger, this game looks hot as hell. How did you find this one? What'd you do?

[Blessing]

I've been listening to podcasts. I've been listening to Barrett's advice.

[Tim Gettys]

You're just trying to get all the heat on you.

[Blessing]

No, I, I, I actually was listening to a podcast and I figured out this game and then I also read a bunch of previews and I've been playing the demo and it's awesome. Yeah, so this demo is really great. It's out right now. All the save transfers over to the main game. The demo is only on Steam right now, but yeah, it's Brick Breaker.

[Tim Gettys]

So cool.

[Mike]

Vampire.

[Blessing]

And it's really deep and there's going to be a lot of characters and a lot of bosses.

[Greg Miller]

You have, like, a homestead. Yes. You're, like, getting stuff and keeping.

[Blessing]

And it can go massive.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Blessing]

You definitely. Everyone needs to check this game out.

[Greg Miller]

So cool.

[Blessing]

This is going to be like the surprise hit of the year, IMO.

[Tim Gettys]

Hitman. Absolution. Absolution.

[Blessing]

It's coming to iOS and Android?

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, dude. IOS and Android, dude. That's exciting. You're hyped on this.

[Mike]

That's exciting.

[Tim Gettys]

October 16th.

[Andy Cortez]

Absolutely exciting.

[Blessing]

Yes. I'm very excited for this. I'm not playing it on my Android, but also I want to play it on my.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, I might. Andy, thank you for getting where I couldn't get.

[Andy Cortez]

Absolutely.

[Tim Gettys]

I appreciate you. Pokemon Legends are Switch 2 and Switch coming October 16th.

[Greg Miller]

I'll review it. I'll review it, everybody. Don't worry. It's got my boy Halluchin, and I'm excited. Let's battle in the streets of Luminor City. Based on Paris. I wasn't allowed to go.

[Tim Gettys]

No, you weren't.

[Blessing]

Oh, I gotta announce my baby.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, that's the excuse. You know what I mean? Very excited. Tim, are you excited? You played it more recently than me.

[Tim Gettys]

I am excited. Yeah. I played it and it was funny. Chris Anko was texting me last night, like, be real with me. Like, is this the one? And I had to be real with him. I'm like, you know, it could be like. It's. It's an interesting thing where it's, like, caught between, like, he was saying that he thought that Arceus was kind of mid and he really hated Scarlet and Violet. And so it's just like, with that, I'm like, I. I don't know. This is completely different.

[Greg Miller]

Like, I was gonna say with that. It might be time to grow up, Chris. Maybe you're a grown man now and you just don't like games like this anymore. Violet, get out of here. You didn't like Violet? Get out of here.

[Andy Cortez]

Don't listen to him.

[Tim Gettys]

Just don't listen to him at all. Any. Violet, Honestly. Huh?

[Greg Miller]

Do you like Scarlet and Violet?

[Andy Cortez]

I loved it.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you. You're allowed. You're okay then. Chris, ankle over here. Fucking Ebenezer Scrooge playing me like, I hate all of this. Chris, please draw Spider Man. No, I hate playing Pokemon.

[Tim Gettys]

But my answer to him was, I do think that, like, the. It feels like the anime. It feels the active calling out. Do this. Use Thundershock. Like, there's fun there. So. So I am very excited for it. I am scared though about it feeling samey after a while, specifically with like being in the city and how it all looks and I. And he was also asking, he sounds like he doesn't have a switch too. So he was like, how do you think it's going to run to the switch one? And I think my response to him was literally lol. Yeah, not a trash. There's not a chance that this game runs acceptably on the switch one, so we'll see it a couple weeks keeper coming October 17th. This is from Lee Petty and Double Fine Productions. An atmospheric puzzle adventure in which a long forgotten lighthouse is awakened and joined by a spirited seabird.

[Greg Miller]

It embarks upon a heartening tale.

[Tim Gettys]

Who here is like actually stoked for this one?

[Mike]

Yeah, it's got that Double Fine sauce. I mean, Double Fine is known for thinking outside the box and being kind of wild with the art style and I like that. I'm really into this and so, yeah, we'll see how this goes.

[Blessing]

I wouldn't say stoked, but I'm excited. I'm definitely gonna play.

[Tim Gettys]

I'm definitely interested in giving this one a shot. There's another on Cool Greg's hype list of games to play, but yeah, looks really cool. And yeah, obviously the pedigree there. It's like we expect greatness from this.

[Greg Miller]

That's the biggest thing about it for me is I love Double Fine. But for me, Double Fine is either I'm all in or I'm not. And so when they're like, hey, it's this atmospheric puzzle adventure, I'm like, am I gonna. What does that exactly mean? I haven't, I have not had time to look beyond the trailers we've seen at presentation. So I haven't done a deep dive in what you're doing, this game, how it plays.

[Andy Cortez]

But I think I was just gonna say I'm, I'm really excited for the visuals and I think of course what we've seen so far looks awesome even in the. The limited forms that we've seen it. You know, if it could look awesome and make me feel and not be eight or 10 hours, 10 plus hours, maybe eight. Even around the eight.

[Blessing]

Solid eight.

[Andy Cortez]

That would be amazing.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Blessing]

Yeah. After watching five, after watching the documentary, I think I'm kind of a mark for Double Fine just as a concept and everything they're doing. So I want them to succeed. And I think this is, is, this is going to be definitely a play.

[Greg Miller]

Voxbox in the chat says Greg needs characters with faces. It's a. You boiled it down, but I think there is some of that in there for me. I was just like, I look at the lighthouse, I look at the bird. I'm like, the bird has a face. Yeah. But does anything else in this world? I just watched the trailer. Is there anything else in the world? It doesn't look like a happy world.

[Blessing]

All you need is the bird.

[Greg Miller]

All right.

[Tim Gettys]

Bird is the word. Lumo 2, come on. PlayStation 5 sounds good.

[Blessing]

That's a Family Guy. Family Guy. Funny moments.

[Greg Miller]

No, it's a song.

[Tim Gettys]

No, it's not. It's Family Guy. October 17th. Isometric icons back in the sequel to 2016's arcade adventure hit Lumo Experience a brand new adventure of shifting dimensions and new perspectives with gameplay that never stops evolving. Lumo 2. Yeah.

[Blessing]

With your mouth open.

[Tim Gettys]

I'm not familiar with Lumo. Are y' all familiar with Lumo one?

[Blessing]

No.

[Tim Gettys]

No, I'm not either. I'm good.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, Exactly.

[Tim Gettys]

Ninja Gaiden 4. Hey, come in. PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S and PC on October 20th.

[Andy Cortez]

Lumo 2 looks pretty cool.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Can I. Can I see Lumo too, Barrett, please.

[Andy Cortez]

I think you would with this.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

You talk about Ninja Guy while we get the trailer.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, yeah. Ninja Gaiden. I played the demo. I enjoyed the demo. I am more of a 2D ninja guiding than a 3D ninja gaiden guy, so Rage bound fed me very well. I'm excited for this, but it's not like I'm, like, counting down the moments to get my hands on it again.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm the same. I. I enjoyed Ninja Garden four more than I thought I would. Wasn't blown away by. But it was still really exciting. It had some awesome boss fights.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. I with Lumo.

[Greg Miller]

You Lumo, too.

[Tim Gettys]

I with Lumo.

[Greg Miller]

You don't know about Lumo.

[Tim Gettys]

I don't know about Lumo. I'm not familiar with that, man. Yeah, this looks cool as hell, but.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, a lot of platforming for the audio listeners.

[Tim Gettys]

Roger, you excited for this at all?

[Blessing]

I'm excited. The idea of Ninja Gaiden. I played Ninja Gaiden 2 Black this year and I was like, it's. It's just not doing it for me. And I don't know, I also don't want to fucking bang my head against the wall for hard video game at all. I don't know if that's what the vibe is going to be here, but if the game is like, hella hard, then I'm Going to be like, I don't want to. I don't.

[Tim Gettys]

So far from the demo of 4, it didn't feel like it was like brutally hard, like the old Ninja Gaiden.

[Blessing]

I would love like a, like, like a Devil May Cry esque type vibe. If that's what we're going for. I'm cool with that.

[Tim Gettys]

It's not full Devil May Cry, but it's not full old school Ninja Gaiden either. I do think that it's somewhere in the middle, so I'll try it out. It's game pass. So. Yeah. Jurassic World Evolution 3, Mike. Finally happening October 21st.

[Mike]

Finally happening. Tim, we're so excited and I'm going to tell you, Andy Cortez is excited and that makes me excited.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm so pumped.

[Mike]

I cannot believe he's pumped up about this.

[Greg Miller]

He loves dinos.

[Mike]

Yeah, I. I love a good park wielder.

[Andy Cortez]

Andy knows that you dress like Ellie Sattler.

[Mike]

Oh my God.

[Andy Cortez]

You get Nick to dress up as John Hammond. I'll just like Neil. Neil, who's the main actor.

[Mike]

Yo.

[Greg Miller]

Oh, oh, Alan. Yeah, Alan. I can picture his face.

[Tim Gettys]

Grant.

[Andy Cortez]

Alan Grant. But I was gonna say. I was gonna say Vince Neil. That's definitely nothing.

[Tim Gettys]

I was thinking Neil Grant.

[Andy Cortez]

Neil Patrick Harris.

[Tim Gettys]

No, no, no, no.

[Andy Cortez]

Anyway, like, I think we had such a fun stream with the.

[Tim Gettys]

Sam. Neil.

[Andy Cortez]

Sam Neil. Thank you. With the, with the Zoo Builder, Zoo Tycoon or whatever the heck it was called. And it kind of made me realize I. I like this style of game and I miss this style of game. And I haven't played this style of game since I was a child with like, you know, SimCity and stuff like that, so. Or Roller Coaster Tycoon and like that. So this was. It was surprising to kind of go, oh, damn, I want something like this. And Dinos are the coolest.

[Mike]

Dino Dinos are the coolest.

[Tim Gettys]

We have Painkiller 2025 coming to PS5, Xbox Series and PC on October 21st. Any interest?

[Greg Miller]

No. It's a first person. You run around like, it's got like a monster vibe to it.

[Andy Cortez]

I think it looks pretty cool. But it all comes down to do I have time? The movie looks awesome there. You know, it's always been like a super fast action sort of first person shooter. But yeah, the traversal. And while running and jumping and sliding, it looks fun. We'll see if it, you know, is actually worth a damn.

[Mike]

You put brute force on that. The name day one.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. God. Remember Brute force. Brute force. What a time.

[Andy Cortez]

This Is like a remake, right? I think Painkillers remake.

[Mike]

This is a co op game as well. Andy, you and I can play.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm down.

[Tim Gettys]

Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 coming October 21st.

[Greg Miller]

Let's go vampire RPG. I read game Informers cover last month about it. You know this is one that's been gestating forever, which makes you go okay, let's see what this is actually going to be. But it is a game that has been restarted in a new dev and a new thing. The Game Informer cover sounded awesome. Let's go through, let's pick our clan. Let's have a bunch of cool vampire abilities and go through an RPG that. I'm very excited for this. I excited might be too far. I'm very interested if they can stick this and make a quality RPG of being a vampire and dealing with the vampire world. I'm going to be super in.

[Tim Gettys]

Dispatch. Coming to PS5 and PC October 22nd. Are those the only platforms really?

[Blessing]

Oh wow.

[Tim Gettys]

Interesting. Yes. Very interested in this rollout plan. I hope it works. I don't know that it will.

[Greg Miller]

For those who don't know, the roll.

[Tim Gettys]

Out plan will be two episodes a week for four weeks of this coming out. How long will those episodes be? I do not know, Mike.

[Mike]

I don't like that Tim, you know that. But the thing is the game out.

[Tim Gettys]

But drop it like it's hot. But the difference here is in theory the game's already done. It's not like a chance things are going to get delayed. If they can actually stick to that cadence and the qualities there, this could be cool. But again, there's a lot of ifs and coulds.

[Blessing]

I love this rollout plan. I think this is great. I think this is what you need to do. We had the issues with Walking Dead back in the day where it would just take months and months and months between episodes. The fact that we know where this is ending and it's just two a week, like that's a good amount of.

[Unidentified Guest]

Seeing it behind close or I got to do a remote demo of it and you know, hear the devs talk.

[Tim Gettys]

A lot, a lot about it.

[Unidentified Guest]

And a lot of these devs are former, you know, telltale and stuff. And a lot of their frustration was those rollout plans of the Walking Dead of releasing a an episode and then going quiet for six, seven months and then finally dropping the next thing where they really wanted to have the entire thing done but still do that kind of weekly release model or something like that because they, they think there's something of value of playing like a very curated part of the story and taking a break from it and thinking about it and you know, thinking about what next beats could be before you get back into it. So yeah, it'll be interesting to see if they can keep that up and if it actually hits.

[Andy Cortez]

You know, it's certainly a lot better of a plan when. When you're not taking those breaks to work on the game.

[Tim Gettys]

Yes.

[Andy Cortez]

Like if you just have the whole last thing and you're just you know, tweaking tiny bugs and fixing things here and there, that would be ideal. But it could work.

[Greg Miller]

I mean you figure it is that kind of thing where. Where we are with the review season. Yada yada, like dropping a 10 hour game in front of me. I'm like oh I'll when I get to it but if it's hey, it's an hour and a half tonight. Okay, I can.

[Tim Gettys]

And another I. I think it was Andy and I talking about our games daily but like again if the game is good, the idea of us doing a games cast like spoiler con review sl spoiler conversation like every week about the games like that could be cool. But again we'll have be good.

[Greg Miller]

You've got to care about it. Kind of funny. Best friends.

[Tim Gettys]

Yep.

[Andy Cortez]

Well, hop and Play. Subscribe for 28 Months with Primus says Greg sucks.

[Blessing]

[Greg Miller]

Be working at a Sabaro in Times Square right now.

[Tim Gettys]

If it wasn't for me.

[Mike]

I thought about that this morning. Thank you Greg.

[Blessing]

That I'd be working at Sabaro.

[Mike]

I thought about it this morning as.

[Greg Miller]

I drove in sending him all these.

[Tim Gettys]

Cool to him's coming to mobile October 22nd.

[Greg Miller]

Love to him. Portillo's in it. Go support it. Great game but you should have played it by now. But if you haven't good home for it though, right?

[Tim Gettys]

That type of game on Android and iOS.

[Blessing]

No, just look for the next one.

[Tim Gettys]

Angry video game nerd 8 Bits coming to every console known to man. On October 23rd the nerds back in 8 Bits battle through frantic platforming levels, defeat classic AVGN bosses and save all the gaming from a corrupted monstrosity. These games are better than they should be. Really?

[Blessing]

That I've never played it not.

[Tim Gettys]

They're not all time retro platformers. There's a handful of them. Yeah. But yeah they're. They're a fun time and if you grew up watching Angry Video Game Nerd. There's enough fun little references and things that you'll be like, oh yeah, that's.

[Blessing]

A good for making three of these games.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah. Good for you. Bounty star coming to PS5 Xbox series and PC on October 23rd. An over the shoulder 3D action game that marries met combat and customization with farming and base building. Because that's where we're at in 2025. Cool.

[Andy Cortez]

I'm looking right now.

[Greg Miller]

This has always been the one where Anna Pernil sends out an email about their demos and I'll book all the ones around this and I'm like, I.

[Tim Gettys]

Don'T need to see this thing.

[Greg Miller]

I don't show me more mixed fake before. Oh, he seemed like what's coming out.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Double Dragon Revive actually coming PS5 Xbox Series and PC on October 23rd. Interesting art style on this one. Not what I expected. We'll see how this one goes. I don't have the utmost faith, but Moonlighter 2 endless finally come into early access October 23rd to PC. Greg, what do you have to say?

[Greg Miller]

Cannot wait. Everyone knows how much I love Moonlighter. Been so stoked for this. Been so excited that other people are stoked for this one. It really seems like. Like if they can do it, they'll move the needle. Get some love for this game that I thought Moonlighter 1 was so good. New art style looks incredible. Yeah, Early Access I'm always trepidatious about. So when I talked about this though, the other day, I forget who it was. Was telling me on a show or maybe it was afterwards. It's like, Greg, we're old and Early Access used to mean something different to us. Like of this is an incomplete game where you can get games, whether it be Hades 2 and it's going to be this amazing. We got to get over it. You got to just go play it and be fine with it rather than wait for 1.0, which is what I did for Hades 1 and hey, you know, Hades 2, whatever, blah, blah. I can't wait for this. I'm excited for it and I'm ready to get over being against Early Access, which already I am, because skate rocks.

[Tim Gettys]

Persona 3 reloads coming to switch to October 23rd.

[Blessing]

I played it. I played a little bit of it at sega. Runs well. Looks good. Definitely a good port. I'm excited to try it out and this will be the first time that I play Persona 3. Reload and give it a shot.

[Tim Gettys]

Shot Excited Plants for Zombies replanted. Coming October 23rd everywhere. Rod.

[Blessing]

Yeah, this is a remaster slash remake of Plants versus Zombies. The first one. Honestly, a little bit disappointing when you look at it because it just kind of looks like what I remember Plan Zombies was it has some more modes and they added like co op and some cool quality of life stuff. But it just kind of looks like.

[Mike]

The game you remember.

[Blessing]

I kind of wanted a full on like, hey, we're rebooting this franchise, but just kind of looks like a little bit of a half. But I love this game. One of my favorite games of all time. So. Hell yeah.

[Greg Miller]

An amazing game if you've never played Plants vs. Zombie. Yeah, a great one to pick up.

[Blessing]

Incredible. It's on mobile. It's everywhere.

[Tim Gettys]

Don't lie to us.

[Greg Miller]

Here's the board you want to talk about. And who's publishing this? You might ask Tim. Game Mill.

[Tim Gettys]

What do they have?

[Blessing]

Game Mill and og.

[Greg Miller]

This one's going to be an interesting one. Of course, if you're not familiar, because you don't have a three and a half year old about to turn four, get your birthday gifts in Hot Wheels. Let's Race, of course, is the Netflix show. So whereas we have Hot Wheels, you know, Unleashed two or whatever, we're playing as the Hot Wheels. That's all well and good. This is us actually playing as the kids out there. So this one you definitely are gonna have to get for Ben. I gotta get there.

[Tim Gettys]

You know what I mean? Yeah. I was talking about NASCAR earlier, but I grew up with the NASCAR cartoon. Yeah, Ben would love it. What?

[Blessing]

NASCAR.

[Tim Gettys]

It was called NASCAR 2000. Dude, it was so sick.

[Blessing]

That's sick.

[Tim Gettys]

It was like. It was kind of like F0. They were NASCAR racers. Yeah, that's what it was. NASCAR. Oh, wow.

[Blessing]

This is sick. This is like the most 2000.

[Tim Gettys]

They might as well call it NASCAR 2000.

[Blessing]

This fuck's real hard.

[Mike]

Do you remember the NFL had a cartoon with the. The Fox robot. He had his own.

[Blessing]

Cletus.

[Mike]

Yep.

[Greg Miller]

Stoked for this one. Excited for it to be back on consoles.

[Tim Gettys]

Creepy redneck. Dinosaur Mansion 3.

[Greg Miller]

I've talked to this one a lot. A very cool idea. Of course, this from Strange Scaffold. Hold on. Stick with me. The original Creepy Redneck. Oh, wait, no. I'm screwing this up. Actually. I'm sorry. This is just the port of the iOS one. I thought it was the one where they're doing the remake. Remastered. Whatever. No, this is just a great game from Strange Scaffold. Everybody supports.

[Blessing]

It's three games, so it works perfectly on a phone. So perfect.

[Tim Gettys]

Duet Night abyss Coming to PC, iOS and Android on October 28th. Brilliant. Hybrid RPG.

[Blessing]

He was watching the trailer for NASCAR racers.

[Tim Gettys]

I knew you were gonna fucking talk to. Okay, I don't want to forget. I need to watch this later. Duet Knight abyss coming to PC, iOS and Android October 28th.

[Andy Cortez]

At least he hit it.

[Greg Miller]

He knew he was wrong. He knew what he Did.

[Andy Cortez]

When we're in interviewing Nick Sarbito's shopping for jeans, he just leaves.

[Greg Miller]

I need some new Dickies. Get out of here.

[Tim Gettys]

A thrilling hybrid RPG featuring a dual narrative is coming to PC, iOS and Android.

[Blessing]

That's really just. That's it.

[Tim Gettys]

That's it.

[Blessing]

That's the entire Steam description.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah, I'm on the Steam page. It's got a pretty art style. It doesn't tell me much about what's going on, but good for them.

[Tim Gettys]

We got same kind of. No. What?

[Blessing]

Two Point.

[Tim Gettys]

Two Point Museum. Yeah.

[Blessing]

I also played this. This is a port on Switch, which is happening.

[Tim Gettys]

I don't know where did I read those words? Hey, hey, wait. Same kind of shape. I was looking at this when I.

[Blessing]

Saw that and I read it.

[Greg Miller]

I don't know where I read those words. It's been a week.

[Tim Gettys]

Oh, my God. Two Point of Roger you.

[Blessing]

I played it also at Sega. Didn't look great. There's no mouse controls on the Switch too, which is very bizarre and I feel like that's perfect for that type of game. So. Yeah, I don't know. I wouldn't recommend if you're playing on.

[Tim Gettys]

The Switch too, but yeah, I played.

[Mike]

A lot of this on PC earlier this year.

[Tim Gettys]

This game is really.

[Blessing]

It's really good.

[Mike]

But you're. I don't know about the Switch.

[Blessing]

Yeah. Yeah. It doesn't look great. You kind of need the mouse control.

[Tim Gettys]

So it kind of sucks Greg out of Worlds 2.

[Greg Miller]

Let's fucking go. I cannot wait. Everybody knows this is my most anticipated game the rest of the year here. Cannot wait to dive in. I'm doing a very exciting gamescast on Monday where I'm going to build my character in the game. What does that mean? Find out in a one man Gamescast. But Obsidian, Yeah, I think it might be their best RPG of all time if they nail everything they talked about and showed in the demos.

[Blessing]

I'm so excited, so deeply excited, man. I loved Outer Worlds one. I played it for the first time last year and I just. I was absolutely obsessed with it. So. Yeah. Outer Worlds 2. Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

Adrift coming to PC October 30th. Drift away in the serenity of the desert.

[Greg Miller]

Give enemy bars and free my Soul.

[Tim Gettys]

ARC Raiders. October 30, PS5 Xbox Series and PC. Andy, where you at? There was an excitement around this for a while. Where you at now?

[Andy Cortez]

I'm pumped for our creators. Yeah, I'm excited to hop in there. Absolutely. We had a lot of fun with it. It was the best version that I'VE experienced of what. But you know, again, I haven't played Tarkov, but it was like, oh, this is what. This may be the one to get me into the genre in, in a much bigger way. And by that I mean, I'll play it for maybe a month. Otherwise, you know, we'll see if anything's out, if anything else is around, is out around the time that I'll just like maybe drop it. But I really enjoyed my time with it. The combat was fun. The audio was freaking fantastic. You know, the voice over or, or the prox chat and Mike, you know, Mike trying to talk to people across the wall.

[Mike]

I created a guilt a lonesome guild.

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah, we, we did. We were out there, we were fighting a group and then Mike was like, you all team up with us. So these three random strangers, like, all right, cool. Yeah, yeah. And then, and the whole time and then Mike was talking to them and be. And then he would get into the private chat and go, hey, okay, we're gonn them. And then we all. Luckily we all escaped so we didn't have to kill them. But I think this game, this game was, this game felt so polished and ready to launch when we played earlier in the year during the summer. So I'm stoked to see how it looks now upon release.

[Tim Gettys]

Hell yeah. Yeah.

[Mike]

Our creators has the motion. This was game of the summer that is now game of the fall. This game is going to make a splash in a really positive way to get people like Andy a little bit more into the extraction shooters. If you haven't played an extraction shooter, it feels very welcoming and it feels like now is a perfect time to jump on board and go have some fun.

[Andy Cortez]

Great player onboarding.

[Mike]

This one is really, really good in all senses of the word of player onboarding to veteran players that are going.

[Tim Gettys]

To get a lot out of it.

[Mike]

This one seems to have it so really excited. End of the month is going to be great with this one.

[Tim Gettys]

Yeah, end of the month we got a lot of stuff coming. Dragon Quest 1 and 2 HD 2D remake coming everywhere October 30th. Obviously 3 was great and so 1 and 2 fans of that series are eaten. Well, we have IRA prologue coming October 30th. What if hide and seek was life and death? It's 1986 and you're stranded on a ship in the Bermuda Triangle. Everyone's missing, but you're not alone. You're trapped in a terrifying loop with the monster and you'll have to stay one step ahead to survive. Ready or Not. Here it comes. My.

[Mike]

I love hide and seek. I love a good spooky game. I'm interested. I actually watched this trailer yesterday and yeah, you can put me down for. I'm checking this out for sure.

[Greg Miller]

Mortal It's a Silent Society.

[Tim Gettys]

Wow. My God. Mortal Kombat Legacy collection coming October 30th. I'm very excited about this one. Digital Eclipse always puts a lot of loving care into these collections, so it's very cool. I can't wait to see all the documentary footage that they pull together for this as well. Virtual Fighter 5 Revo World Stage.

[Blessing]

Yeah, this is free update for people that already own it on Steam, I believe. Half off if you have it on PC. PS plus and you got it for free there. Yeah, I played a little bit of it again at sega. They put me in their new world stage mode, which is supposed to be their single player. You fight against NPCs that are based off of actual players. And it was so dead easy. Like I don't understand what it was supposed to get. Way harder. And then it was just. I was just smashing one button and winning the entire time. So I don't know if it's gonna be better by launch, but not. Not a great experience from the small amount I played.

[Greg Miller]

You hate to see it.

[Blessing]

Yeah.

Then October 31st. I could barely believe it. Mina the Hollower Switch to Switch, PC, Mac and Linux. God, I hope this game is amazing and I expect that it will be. Why wouldn't it be? Right. Yeah. Following up Shovel Knight game many years in the making. Link to the past like Link's Awakening style game.

[Greg Miller]

You hope it's another Hollow Knight situation here with Team Cherry.

[Tim Gettys]

Right.

[Greg Miller]

Where it's the idea where we're talking about Yacht Club and the success they found with Shovel Knight and then the way they supported Shovel Knight and then to have. Have announced this and have had it just state for a while and have people so stoked for it. But when's it actually coming out to be here? It's going to be interesting.

[Tim Gettys]

Anyone play the demo? No.

[Greg Miller]

Yes.

[Andy Cortez]

I played a little bit of it. Didn't play the full thing, but was okay. I don't need a. I'm sold, you know.

[Tim Gettys]

Okay, good. Yeah, Good, good, good. And then Tales of ailia Remastered coming PlayStation 5 and Xbox and Switch and PC. October 31st.

[Greg Miller]

Good for you.

[Tim Gettys]

Tales then Terminator 2D. No fate.

[Greg Miller]

October 31st.

[Tim Gettys]

Looks awesome. Awesome.

[Greg Miller]

A sequel, you know, this many years in the making and it looks just like you'd expect off a Sega Genesis. Side scrolling shooting everything contra kind of Terminator. Different endings. You know they're putting in all this goofy shit. As somebody who played Terminator 1 on the Genesis so much played Terminator the light gun shooter on Genesis so incredibly stoked to have this goofy throwback and to see again nerds have grown up, inherited the earth and we're just like we're to make the games you should have made.

[Tim Gettys]

So so God damn cool.

[Blessing]

So cool.

[Tim Gettys]

I want to get through some super chats very quick wrap up the show here because we have game showdown to get to and the giant bomb stream we're doing of baby steps. Donald Wielden says October's looking like the month to decide. Our fantasy critic personally excited for me in the Hollower. Yeah things are about to shake up.

[Blessing]

You have to make a move.

[Mike]

I'm the one with the move to make. So we'll see what I pick here in maybe today, maybe this week, maybe next week. You never know.

[Greg Miller]

You never know what Mike's gonna do.

[Mike]

But Roger did me he took that's not what happened.

[Tim Gettys]

Remember that?

[Blessing]

Texted you many times.

[Tim Gettys]

Snow 13 says Digimon stories Time stranger might be the hidden gem this month. After listening to bless talk about it I tried the demo and I think it has the juice. Second row says Greg's apple watch with Metal Gear Solid got me to expense one for my myself it looks good Greg for Pete.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah.

[Tim Gettys]

Go check it out if you want to see some good music in San Francisco. Mimo and the Notebooks Red misfit says hey Greg, I love it when you say yeah yeah, yeah, yeah but when you say ladies gentlemen and Enby's I'm at a loss. What does enbies mean?

[Greg Miller]
