[Greg Miller]

My old lover. Of course I had some times with her.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm one of your host blessing Adie Ilyeh Jr. I'm joined by three contestants representing three teams. We have Andy Cortez representing Team Purple.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I miss Greg hosting. Not because I don't like you hosting, I just don't. I I was further away from him during Beauty.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You know he has an energy when he's a contestant there was just a lot less champion. Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

The three time champion.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

How old is that belt? That case kind of fading off of that thing, ain't it?

[Greg Miller]

Oh, the case long gone.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Greg Miller]

The eye was gone forever. And then. Yeah, we lost the K along the way too. But it was kind of funny. Life 3 NDA funny.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Wow.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Wow.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Of course, that is the champion of season. Man, now you messed me up.

[Andy Cortez]

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I think it was season. No. Season four.

[Greg Miller]

Thank you.

[Greg Miller]

And host Akana Feudi, host of Kind of Beauty.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yes. We've traded places for a limited amount of time, but of course we have a third contestant. And you know what? Let's have the captain of Team Blue introduce them.

[Tim Gettys]

What's up, everybody? It's your boy, Tim Gettys, the leader and face of Team Blue. But guess what?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm not alone.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I have a baby.

[Tim Gettys]

I'm at home with my baby. So I can't be there to compete in the Stars in the bank challenge. Of course, the. This tournament very important for me to win. So Blessing told me to hit up a couple champions to represent me. Tim Geddes and Team Blue, our team. Isn't that right, Sandy? Yeah, it is.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Right.

[Tim Gettys]

Okay. And guess who I am going to have first. He's worked at Gamespot, but currently you can find him writing some of the best [e-mail]. of course, we're talking about my brother from the bay. That's not actually from the bay, but Michael Ham.

[Michael Haim]

Let's go, baby.

[Andy Cortez]

Michael, welcome.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Welcome to the stage, Michael Haim.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

You got to do the front roll like Willy Wonka.

[Michael Hyam]

I don't know how to do that.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Yeah.

[Andy Cortez]

Was that.

[Greg Miller]

Was that a little. Was that like a little sand people there? Say what was that a little bit of the sand people there from Star Wars.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, is it?

[Michael Haim]

Oh, man.

[Michael Hyam]

There we go, y' all inventing new slurs for me.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's crazy. You know what, he said it and I was like, can he say that?

[Michael Hyam]

No, like we're.

[Greg Miller]

I'm from.

[Michael Hyam]

We got jungles, so.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, yeah, Michael.

[Greg Miller]

I am.

[Andy Cortez]

I've always thought it did sound slurish though, right?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Do they?

[Michael Haim]

It is.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It is a slur.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

And like they.

[Michael Hyam]

Yes.

[Greg Miller]

Well, I don't. I don't respect The Tuscan Raiders.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I don't remember them saying that in

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

episode two, Tuscan Raiders, they make those noises.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You know what?

[Michael Hyam]

I. I've been. I've been listening to kind of Feudy and Game Showdown for quite some time now, and it's finally nice to come back and beyond. So thank you.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Awesome. And you're of course competing for Team Blue. Thank you so much, Tim, for picking a champion to represent. Of course, the homie, the roomie, that's me, Michael Hyam.

[Michael Hyam]

You know what I'm saying?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Now, to start off this episode, I want to start by introducing a small new mechanic to Game Showdown. After you buzz in, you have 10 seconds. You have 10 seconds to make your

[Greg Miller]

getting hip to our shit over here.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Hold up, wait, what? So of course we have round robin. We have plenty of games here where the thing is, you buzz in when you want to answer. After you buzz in, you only have 10 seconds to make your answer. If you don't answer quick enough, you'll hear this sound play, meaning you have forfeited your answer.

[Greg Miller]

Ah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

So this is just me evolving with the contestants.

[Andy Cortez]

I appreciate that.

[Greg Miller]

I respect that. I love that.

[Home Depot Announcer]

Thanks.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yes. We had.

[Greg Miller]

We've never broken the rules. No, it just didn't exist before.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Usually when the question ends. Haim. It's a race for it. And then.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, here we go.

[Michael Hyam]

I think I need y' all gotta teach me the next level Strats.

[Greg Miller]

Well, we're all learning today.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

All right, there you go.

[Andy Cortez]

Can I ask you question?

[Greg Miller]

What's up? So how many episodes of this season, how many do I have to win to get stars in the bank? Is it a cumulative total? What are we doing?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We're doing stars. You'll learn about it as we go. But we have four episodes planned.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I love that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

This season for your mid.

[Greg Miller]

So I just need three stars to get it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Sure.

[Greg Miller]

Why say like that?

[Michael Haim]

I think you all got that poker face straight. Sounds like it's happening.

[Michael Hyam]

Sounds like y' all got some Mario Party shit going on over here.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I got a fun season planned, guys. Katie G. Katie G. We're going to start off with the Trivia question worth 10 points. Points and the chance to start off strong. Contestants, you can buzz in to answer. What year did the Ubisoft Game for Honor Release? Michael Hyam?

[Michael Hyam]

2017.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

2017 is the correct answer Tim Gettys might have chosen, right? That is 10 points for team Blue. Now remember, this is kind of funny. Kind of funny. Game Showdown, our nerdy show where players compete the tr. God, I've Fucked this whole thing.

[Michael Haim]

You forgot how hard it is. No, I can't read.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I haven't hosted the show in I think half a year is what it feels like. This is game showdown kind of funnies nerdy game show where players compete to earn stars and become champion at the end of the season. This season you're competing for the stars in the bank briefcase. The briefcase which I got right here.

[Greg Miller]

There she is. I miss her.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

This can be cashed in.

[Greg Miller]

A lot of fun with her, Andy. You know what I mean?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm gonna stop touching it. This can be cashed in at any time during the next season of game showdown for the opportun cake in it once to steal.

[Michael Hyam]

I'm going win this.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Did we clean it post cake n. All right. About that. You can cash this in for the opportunity to steal a star from another player during the next season or more. Game showdown. You know, really is Mario party jazz here at game showdown. So we'll see how that goes.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I need Greg to have a coughing fit that like ruins the timer that like exceeds.

[Greg Miller]

That'd be fun. I like that.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I'm like.

[Michael Haim]

It's like.

[Andy Cortez]

It's like.

[Greg Miller]

It's like the Aaron Burr commercial about Got Milk from back in the day and it's like a paton question. Yeah. You do Aaron Burr?

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

No.

[Greg Miller]

Yeah. Before Hamilton, the only time I heard about Aaron Burr was a commercial for Got Milk where there was this guy who was obsessed with Aaron Burr.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

What kind of.

[Greg Miller]

And then he called into the show to win a thing and he knew it, but he had eaten a big piece of peanut butter toast or just peanut butter bread. And then he went to pour the glass of milk and the milk was

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

out and he panicked and he goes,

[Michael Hyam]

what kind of boomer shit is this?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, I was gonna say what year

[Andy Cortez]

do you think we used to have

[Greg Miller]

a milk commercial

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

like yo drink milk. Thank you to our Patreon producers, Carl Jacobs, Omega Buster and Delaney the psalm twining. For now, let's play round robin. The rules are simple. Round robin is a pretty straightforward question and answer game about video games. I'll give you a question, you have your buzzers that you'll use to buzz in and answer said question. However, this round robin is a special edition. Every round is a messy mashup. I'm going to read you a clue which will be the description of a game. The answer will be the name of two games mashed together. For example, if I said in this game sneak through top down corridors while defending the earth from alien invasion, the Answer would be Metal Gears of War. Michael, does that make sense?

[Michael Hyam]

Yes. Yes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm also adding in a hint system just for today. If you buzz in and give the correct answer, that's 20 points. If everyone gets it wrong, I'll add a hint and the round becomes worth 10 points.

[White Claw Advertiser]

Nice.

[Greg Miller]

These are some good changes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Michael Hyam]

Wow.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Contestants, are you ready? Yeah. Round number one.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Nice patch we put through.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You know, lead the members of your party on their quest to destroy an evil artist so that she can never paint death again. In this action Roguelike work with Michael Hyam.

[Michael Hyam]

Clara Obscura, Expedition 33 Immortals.

[Michael Haim]

Damn. That is the correct answer.

[Michael Hyam]

I'm a gamer.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That's good.

[Michael Haim]

I like him.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That's good.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

The rest of the clue is going to be in this action Rog. Like work with tons of eternal players to survive hordes of monsters and defeat massive bosses.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That game's on steam now, by the way.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

33 immortals.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Now I can play it. Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Good for them. Clair obscure. Expedition 33 immortals was the answer.

[Michael Hyam]

The champ is washed.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Let's move on to round number two. No Triceratops, Stegosaurus or Tyrannosaurus is safe. Gather your friends, bust out your tools of destruction and jam out to your favorite songs. No Triceratops, Stegosaurus or Tyrannosaurus is safe. Gather your friends.

[Greg Miller]

Greg Turok, the Dinosaur Hunter X.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Andy Turok Ban Turokban is the correct answer.

[Michael Hyam]

That's crazy.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's 20 points for Andy and Team Purple.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Neither. Then

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

round number three. No money is required to step into this story. Rich post apocalypse set in the future in this very popular title race to the finish line as water splashes on you in beautiful polygonal 3D graphics.

[Michael Haim]

Holy.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I got to make these harder. Yeah. I don't even need shit. That's 20 points for Greg Miller. Let's move on.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That was good.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

To round number four. The revolutionary on the Go experience introduces a new location to build and level up your squad. This gilded RPG remains advanced featuring its original Synergy magic system. The revolutionary on the Go experience introduces a new location to build and level up your squad. This gilded RPG remains advanced featuring its original Psynergy magic system. Psynergy spelt P S Y N E R G Y. Just in case I'm pronouncing it wrong, but I think I got it.

[Michael Hyam]

Damn.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

If nobody has a guess, I will add in the hint. Okay, but the points will go down

[Michael Hyam]

to 10 and we don't lose anything by guessing.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No.

[Michael Hyam]

Okay, I gotta guess.

[Greg Miller]

Can I have it one more time?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

The revolutionary on the Go experience introduces a new location to build and level up your squad. This gilded RPG remains advanced, featuring its original Synergy Magic system. It seems like nobody.

[Greg Miller]

If I do it, can I guess in the second one?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, you can guess after I give a hint again. So then I'll bus in.

[Greg Miller]

Greg Miller, Final Fantasy Star.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect.

[Greg Miller]

Ph, I wanted to try to use it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You know, it looks like nobody else has a guess, and so.

[Greg Miller]

Ph. Balance, Michael.

[Michael Hyam]

Okay, okay. I know all about that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm going to read the prompt one more time, and then I'm going to add the hint after it. The revolutionary on the Go experience introduces a new location to build and level up your squad. This gilded RPG remains advanced, featuring its original psynergy magic system. Hint. This second gen Monster Collecting RPG feature features elemental creatures known as Jin. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. This second Zhen Monster Collecting RPG features elemental creatures known as Jin.

[Michael Hyam]

I know one half of this.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Can you.

[Michael Hyam]

Can you read it one more time? Sorry.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

What? Let's hear it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Michael.

[Michael Hyam]

You.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Let's hear the half.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Do you want just the hint or do you want the full thing?

[Michael Hyam]

The full thing.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Cool. This is the last time I'm going to read about it. Okay?

[Michael Hyam]

Okay.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

The revolutionary on the Go experience introduces a new location to build and level up your squad. This gilded RPG remains advanced, featuring its original Synergy Magic System. Hint. This second gen monster Collecting RPG features elemental creatures known as Jin.

[Michael Hyam]

I can't.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

This is a tougher one.

[Michael Hyam]

I can't get the second half. My head is.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It looks like nobody's got it. The correct answer would have been Pokemon Golden Sun. Oh, Pokemon Golden Sun.

[Michael Hyam]

Okay, okay.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It's a tough one because when you

[Michael Hyam]

said mobile, that that was the one that, like, threw me off. So I knew golden sun was a part of half of it, but I was like, oh, he said on the go.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

There you go. Yeah, the. On the go, the monster collecting. Even me saying Gilded RPG was kind of like trying to tip my hat toward the gold. Part of it was the advanced bit. Game Boy advance was advanced for Golden Sun.

[Greg Miller]

Got it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yes.

[Michael Hyam]

Yes. That was good.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

2nd gen monster collecting RPG again, tipping the towards Pokemon Gold there. Let's move on to round number five. Part of the game is defining the rules of the game in the indie puzzler. But what really is the game that's hard to answer when your retro throwback isn't one, but many.

[Michael Hyam]

Jesus Christ.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I need to see the sentence, man.

[Michael Hyam]

Put it on the screen.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Part of the game is defining the rules of the in this indie puzzler. But what really is the game that's hard to answer when your retro throwback isn't one but many?

[Michael Hyam]

Not one.

[Greg Miller]

When your retro what?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Retro throwback. When your retro throwback isn't one, but many.

[Michael Hyam]

Wow, this is rough.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Nobody gets it. We'll add in the hint.

[Michael Hyam]

Yeah, I kind of. I don't want to get. Get to the hint.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

All right. Looks like nobody's got a guess here.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I got nothing, dude.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We're gonna add in the hint. Starring a sheep like creature, jump into many different homages to our favorite entertainment system.

[Michael Hyam]

Sheep like creature jump into our.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

The difficulty stepped up here a little bit.

[Michael Hyam]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Starring a sheep like creature jump into many different homages to our favorite entertainment system.

[Greg Miller]

Is this game even out yet?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yes, both games are out.

[Michael Hyam]

I think I one of them.

[Michael Haim]

I know what.

[Michael Hyam]

What it is. I need to piece it together.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Oh, God, this is killing me. Because I could see it.

[Michael Haim]

I know what one of them is

[Michael Hyam]

and I don't know the other.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Roger loved it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I'm gonna read Roger, do you know it?

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Roger loved one of them.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, Roger says he knows half of it. I'm gonna read the full thing one more time. Yes, part of the game is defining the rules of the game in the indie puzzler. But what really is the game that's hard to answer when your retro throwback isn't one, but many? Hint. Starring a sheep like creature jump into many different homages to our favorite entertainment system. It looks like nobody has it. The answer is Baba is UFO 50.

[Michael Hyam]

I know.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

UFO 50 was of course UFO 50, the. The retro throwback to the NES era, filled with a bunch of different games that you can play. Baba is you being the indie puzzler, where you have to define the rules in order to then complete the puzzle.

[Michael Hyam]

Yeah, these are good.

[Greg Miller]

That's a good job.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That's a good one.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Thank you. Round number six. Build the level as you play in this multiplayer game that pisses people off so much it just can't seem to stay on digital storefronts.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Andy Cortez, ultimate chicken horses.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Ultimate chicken Horses is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Andy Cortez.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That's big.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That's huge.

[Greg Miller]

That's what you need right there.

[Michael Hyam]

He's ahead now. Fuck.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Round seven. This is our final round of Round robin. The mothership has been wrecked and we got to save our robot friends in a first person puzzle game set in in a Victorian English estate.

[Greg Miller]

Greg Miller, Astrobotany Manor.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Astrobotany Manor is the. I was not expecting anybody to Holy shit.

[Andy Cortez]

Holy champ.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

We love Astrobot here. Kind of fun.

[Greg Miller]

It's our game. It's our game.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We do love Astrobot here. That brings us to the end of round robin. What's the score right now? The score.

[Michael Haim]

In last place but still holding strong, it is my baby boy Michael Hyam with 30 points and tied for the lead. It is the champion and the people's champion, Greg Miller and Anti Andy Cortez the Nitro Rifle Cortez both for Team Orange and team purple with 40 points. But it's still anybody's game.

Let's play Critical Hit. The rules are simple. Critical Hit is a game about video game reviews. I'm going to read to you review blurbs about a game and it is up to you to buzz in and guess the game based on the review. Each round has three different blurbs for the same game. The earlier you guess the game, the more points you get with a max of 30 points per round. But you only have one guess per blurb. The add on here. If you get the game right, you have a chance to guess the exact Metacritic score of the game for A critical hit to double your points for that round. Are you ready?

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Michael Hyam]

Yes. I hope one of these reviews is mine.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Round one. The first review comes from a Metacritic user review. Cuckolduckle is the name of the user.

[Andy Cortez]

Nice.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Cuckolduckle gave this game a 3 out of 10 and says this game has one thing going for it. Bad. Otherwise it is an unbalanced mess with a flyer every game. Flyer, flyer, flyer.

[Michael Hyam]

Game's got.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Hmm. This game has one thing going for it. Bad bitches. I share words, by the way. Not my name. That's not my words. Otherwise, it is an unbalanced mess with a fucking flyer every game. Andy.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

A flyer. I'm gonna take that as like. I don't even know what that means in this sense, but I'm gonna take it as like, when you're betting, like, you gotta like. I'm gonna put a flyer on so and so.

[Andy Cortez]

Done.

[Michael Hyam]

Oh.

[Andy Cortez]

See you later, Michael.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

L. Michael, that is incorrect.

[Michael Haim]

Okay.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Thank God.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Greg Miller.

[Andy Cortez]

Rival schools.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Rival schools is incorrect. Our next hint got me.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Forgot that thing was there.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, but I was funny. I forgot about the rules.

[Michael Hyam]

Holy.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Like, for a second I thought it was a mistake and I was like, no, that's valid. That took you more than 10 seconds.

[Andy Cortez]

Once it plays, it plays.

[Michael Hyam]

That's funny.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

This next one comes from PC Mag, who gave it a three out of five and says this is as fun and fast paced as the original game. But its free to play. Structure solely the experience a bit

[Michael Hyam]

a sequel that was free to play bad bitches. Michael, is it Overwatch 2?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Overwatch 2 is nice answer. Which makes the bad bitches make sense because everybody is a baddie. Oh, yeah.

[Michael Hyam]

I should play Overwatch again now.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Oh, it's so back. It's so good.

[Michael Hyam]

So back.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Michael.

[Michael Hyam]

Yes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Getting it on the second blurb means that you've earned yourself 20 points. But you can double that if you can tell me the exact PC Metacritic of Overwatch 2.

[Michael Hyam]

Of Overwatch 2. Ooh, I'm gonna say 79.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

79 is the correct answer. I didn't know we had that graphic. Holy. That is 40 points for the round.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That's the first critical hit ever.

[Michael Hyam]

Yeah, well, I mean. Yes.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I don't know if that's true.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

That's the first official one.

[Michael Hyam]

Oh, man.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Is it really? I had the.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I had the first, like, unofficial one with Bloodborne, but that's the first, like, official on a real unreal showdown. Because ours was. Mine was like, during our little, like, off period.

[Greg Miller]

Like, can we hit the bubble yeah, thank you. I wasn't here for Andy's history lesson.

[Michael Hyam]

Bullshit.

[Greg Miller]

I don't care.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Okay. Jesus Christ.

[Greg Miller]

Now you want me to walk you through all the championships I've won again? Yeah, let me.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Let me hear all of your shit.

[Michael Haim]

Critical hit. Oh, I forgot I did that.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

I didn't know that was a thing. I feel like I requested this forever. And Roger just slid in there without telling me. Thank you so much. And Barrett, no. Round 2. This first review comes from Game Chronicles, who gave this game a 10 out of 10 and says this is easily one of my top 5 games of 2010 so far. The level of energy and excitement and the wonder of what could possibly come next kept me playing for hours on end. Michael.

[Michael Hyam]

Mass Effect 2.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I was in college, bro. I wasn't doing Andy. No.

[Michael Haim]

What the was that

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

proposed?

[Michael Hyam]

That said?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Nah, I buzz.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I was like the wrong year.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Greg Miller.

[Greg Miller]

Dead Space.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Dead Space is incorrect. Let's move on to our second review blurb from Game Informer, who gave this game an 8.5 out of 10 and says every superhero has his Achilles heel.

[Greg Miller]

Greg Infamous 2.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Andy Injustice.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect.

[Greg Miller]

It's not gonna have anything to do with it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Every. I'm not finished reading about it.

[Andy Cortez]

We know.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We understand.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Yeah, you said super.

[Andy Cortez]

Calm down.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Every superhero has his Achilles heel, and this one is no different. While a combat is fast and fun, the auto targeting occasionally snaps to the wrong place, and the camera can have a mind of its own when you're climbing walls. Okay, Michael's the only one who hasn't buzzed in for this round.

[Michael Hyam]

Michael, is it one of those Marvel Ultimate Alliance.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You have a specific one?

[Michael Hyam]

Oh, shit. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect. This last blurb comes From Game Master UK, who gave this game an 8.4 out of 10 and says the greatest spidey game of this generation, Michael The Spider Man 2.

[Michael Hyam]

3. Game on. PS3.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect.

[Michael Hyam]

Dude.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Andy.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Spider Man. Web of Shadows.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect. Greg.

[Greg Miller]

Spider Man Shattered Dimensions.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Spider Man Shattered Directions is the correct answer. The rest of the hint would have been four fantastic flavors of arachnid awesomeness. Now, Greg, you could get 10 points for that round, or you can double that if you can tell me the exact Xbox360 metacritic of Spider man shattered dimensions.

[Disney Plus Advertiser]

81.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

81 is incorrect. 76. Okay, let's move on to round number three. This first blurb comes from Universo Nintendo, who gave this game a six out of ten. A six out of ten and says digging for three And a half hours may be fun, but in the end it's just digging. Digging for three and a half hours may be fun. Greg Terraria Terraria is incorrect.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

What were the details on the front end of the reviewer?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Universo Nintendo they gave it a 6 out of 10. If nobody has it, we'll move on to our second blurb. Metro Game Central gave this an 8 out of 10 and says despite its many and obvious influences, this is an impressively unique vision that offers excellent, excellent value for money and one of the best surprises on the 3DS's eShop.

[Michael Hyam]

Michael is it Steamroll Dig?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It is Steamworld Dig. Now that can give you 20 points or you can double that if you can tell me the 3Ds metacritic of steamroll dig.

[Michael Hyam]

3Ds metacritic for steamroll dig. I'm say 78.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Close, but not close enough. 82. Okay, okay, we're going to move on to round number four. The first blurb comes from Daily Star, who gave this game a 5 out of 5 stars and says it continues to plunder that wonderful rich vein they've been tapping of a brilliant single player story combined with first rate gameplay and graphics. Greg Miller Uncharted 2 that is incorrect.

[Michael Hyam]

This could be anything.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Could be. How lucky you feeling?

[Michael Hyam]

I mean.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Andy Overwatch 2 that is incorrect.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Man, you never know.

[Michael Hyam]

Man, you wish it had the player opponent. Could I get it one more time or.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

It continues to plunder that wonderful rich vein they've been tapping of a brilliant single player story combined with first rate gameplay and graphics.

[Michael Hyam]

Michael Assassin's Creed for Black Flag that is incorrect.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

This next one comes from Destructoid, who gave this game a 9 out of 10 and says combat a big reason why people gravitate towards this franchise in the first place is mostly the same, which works for me. There's a Dodge, Perry and Block system on the defensive side which can be plused up through various means like skill trees to create even more engaging timing sequences.

[Michael Hyam]

Timing sequence, huh?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

A lot of gameplay details there. Andy Crackdown 2 that is incorrect.

[Greg Miller]

Can we get them both back to back?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Sure. Daily Star gave it five out of five stars. It continues to plunder that wonderful rich vein they've been tapping of a brilliant single player story combined with first rate gameplay and graphics. Destructoid 9 out of 10 Combat a big reason why people gravitate toward this franchise in the first place is mostly the same, which works for me. There's a dodge, parry and block system on the defensive side which can be plused up through various means. Like skill trees to create even more engaging timing sequences.

[Michael Hyam]

Timing sequences.

[Greg Miller]

Greg Miller, Star Wars Jedi Survivor.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect. If nobody has another guess, we'll move on to our third review, which comes from Easy Allies. Hey gave this game a 9 out of 10 and says this is a worthy followup to the 2018 masterpiece. Michael.

[Michael Hyam]

Oh, damn it. I instantly regret. Is it Spider Man 2 that is incorrect. Marvel Spider Man 2?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

No. Okay, I would have gave. I would have given it to you, Greg.

[Greg Miller]

God of War Ragnarok.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

God of War Ragnarok is the correct close answer.

[Greg Miller]

Needed that breadcrumb of what other 201818 game there was.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Now, Greg, can you tell me the PS4 Metacritic? Forgot.

[Michael Haim]

Why is this.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Wait, God of War Ragnarok is a PS5 game? Let me double check this. This cross gen. Yeah, it's crossing. Yeah, but usually I pull from the most reviewed platform. But I think I probably meant to write PS5 here, so I'm just gonna double check to make sure. But can you tell me the PS5 Metacritic of God of War Ragnarok? I got it right.

[Greg Miller]

88.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That is incorrect. The PS5 Metacritic is a 94.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Oh damn.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Michael Hyam]

Wowzers.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

That brings us to the end of our normal round of this game, Critical Hit. Wow, I'm really rusty on this show. That brings us to the end of the normal rounds of Critical Hit. But we do have a bonus round titled Metascore Mayhem. I'm gonna put up five different games on the screen. You each have whiteboards. I want you to organize these games from top to bottom based on what you think the meta score is. For every correct spot, you'll get a whopping 20 points. The twist, if any of you get all five games correct, the game ends and we dish out the scores as is. However, if no one gets all five correct, I'll tell you each how many games you have in the right positions. And I'll give you one chance to change your answers. I won't tell you which games you have in the right spots, just how many. You have 60 seconds to jot down your answers. Contestants, are you ready?

[Andy Cortez]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Barrett, bring up the games

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

lowest. The highest. Right.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Highest at the top to lowest. Yeah.

[Michael Hyam]

Wow.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

So the games are Aliens, Colonial Marines, Assassin's Creed Shadows, Child of Light, Rocket League and Battlefield 2042. Need to organize these highest have the highest Metacritics in order to the lowest which has has the lowest Metacritic. You have just about 30 seconds left to jot these down. We're looking for somebody to get all five in the correct spots. About 15 seconds left here. All our contestants still jotting.

[Michael Hyam]

Locked in, baby.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

You got about five seconds left. Looks like Greg's locked in. Looks like Andy's locked in. We're gonna start off with Greg Miller. Greg, what order you got? Best?

[Greg Miller]

So number one, Child of Light. Number two, Rocket League. Number three, Alien Colonial Marines. Number four, Battlefield 2042. Number five, Assassin's Creed Shadows.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Andy, what you got for me?

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

I have Rocket League, Child of Light, AC Shadows, Battlefield 2042 and Aliens Colonial Marines.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Michael, what you got for me?

[Michael Hyam]

I got exactly what Andy got. Rocket League, Child of Light, Assassin's Creed Shadows, Battlefield 2042 and Colonial Marines.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Greg, you have one game in the correct spot. Thank you, Andy. And Michael, you have all five games in the correct spot, meaning both Haim and Andy. Gamers get all the points for the round. You get 100 points. I believe Greg gets. Greg gets 20 points for that round.

[Greg Miller]

Loser.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And that does complete the bonus round. You guys both got the. The perfect order there is so washed. If we can have the perfect score or. Sorry, if we can have the recap of this.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

He just needs to be coughing over there.

[Michael Haim]

The recap. In last place. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Take that, Greg.

[Michael Haim]

For Team Orange with a measly 80 points.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Can't even get into the triple digis. Fucking embarrassing.

[Michael Haim]

In second place, continuing the showdown tradition of being the bridesmaid but never the bride, it is Andy the Nitro rifle Cortez with 140 points. And the winner for Team Blue, guesting today, my baby boy, Michael Hyam with 190. Polls, boys.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, yeah, it looks like T. Let's go. Picked right.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Damn, I didn't know that was the end of it.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Yeah, that's the end of it. That's it. If you can pick up the star tracker.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Way to go, Michael. Way to go.

[Andy Cortez]

Hey.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, I'm so happy.

[Michael Hyam]

I just want to thank God. I want to thank my mom. I want to thank my dad. Not my. Maybe him, but we'll get to that. And I want to thank Tim Geddes for putting me on. You know what I'm saying? I got you, bro.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

There we go. Of course, our star tracker is up. We came into this episode, it's the beginning of the season. So we started with no stars, but Michael Hyam, playing for team Blue, has earned the first star of the mini season of game showdown and compete for stars in the bank. Michael, this is for you. The star.

[Michael Haim]

Oh, yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Oh, I'm gonna hang this on her wall. Oh, I need you to leave that here we only have a certain number of those. But, michael, thank you so much for playing.

[Michael Haim]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Thanks for coming through.

[Michael Hyam]

Hell, yeah.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

And of course, we have more episodes of game of showdown through the weeks, so tune in to see who's able to win the stars in the bank for the next season. The next full season of game showdown. Of course, I've been your host blessing. Adio ye, junior. Those have been your contestants. And until next time, it's been our pleasure.

[Sandy (possibly a nickname for Andy Cortez)]

Barrett, can you hit him with the sound? Can you hit him with the sound?

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

Hit him with the sound, Barrett.

[Michael Haim]

Congrats.

[Blessing Adeoye Jr.]

We'll see you guys later.

[Disney Plus Advertiser]
