So grab some and remember why its cool, crisp and fresh scent made it the number one men's antiperspirant for the last decade. Degree Cool Rush is back and it smells like victory for all of us.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Congratulations, Greg. You are the Stars in the bank contract holder. You won Stars in the bank, which means at some point during this season, you'll be able to cash in your contract to challenge either Andy or Tim to steal one of their stars.

[Kevin Coelho]

And we know who it's going to be. Tim.

[Barrett Courtney]

There'S an S right there.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Plural.

[Nick Scarpino]

Don't put plural plural.

[Barrett Courtney]

Agenda we had the announcement that we wanted to announce.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yes, of course. Go for it. So you.

[Barrett Courtney]

You co signed this announcement?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I Did. Yeah.

[Barrett Courtney]

Okay, sweet. I'm not sure if Greg's still in the building, but the announcement was. I'm excited to announce that stars, plural does indeed mean three stars.

[Nick Scarpino]

Three stars. Three. That's more than Greg even was asking or pushing for.

[Kevin Coelho]

Timothy, as I said, you're the biggest Onimusha fan I know. We got an email that was. Hey, the one, the only Ishura San is going to be in the office. He's going to be in San Francisco. Do you guys want to interview him? And you said, yes, of course.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

By the way, Tim Ashisan heard from.

[Carl Jacobs]

Greg that Greg would like to. Greg would like you to give him the three stars you owe him.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So thanks, Greg.

[Nick Scarpino]

Thanks, Greg. No, not the music. Not the music. Thank you so much. Odiebusha, too. Oh, my God. It's not happening right now. No, it's not happening now. Are you serious? Can I ask him to sign my Onimusha, too? Hold on, hold on. I hate Graves so much. Bless. Oh, man. I love you, but this is questionable.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah.

[Nick Scarpino]

Oh, it has to happen just like this, doesn't it? Yes. Thank you so much.

[Kevin Coelho]

Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. All right, well, great interview, Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

Thank you. I'm so sorry. PR team.

[Kevin Coelho]

I'm cashing in. Oh, you think they weren't in on it? They were in on it.

[Nick Scarpino]

What do you want me to do? Okay.

[Kevin Coelho]

To your assigned seat. Team Orange. It is now. Kind of funny.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Game Showdown now. Coming into this, Greg, of course, you're coming off of a fresh win last week. That brings you closer to Tim. I believe right now, Tim is still sitting at six stars for the season.

[Kevin Coelho]

Not for long.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You're sitting at four stars of the season coming into this, of course. Yo, what's up? Welcome to the Game Showdown. Stars in the bank. Cash in. I'm your Host, Blessing Adioye Jr. I'm joined by two contestants representing two teams. We got Tim Geddes representing Team Orange.

[Nick Scarpino]

We sure do.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And we have Greg Miller representing team.

[Kevin Coelho]

How do you think the interview went, Tim?

[Nick Scarpino]

It went great. Gre.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now, the rules are simple. I have a trivia question worth. One of Tim's stars.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yes.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

If Greg gets the question right, he gets to take one of Tim stars. If Tim gets it right, he gets to keep all of his stars one star. You can buzz in to answer. Contestants, are you ready?

[Kevin Coelho]

Yes.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yes.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The popular movie franchise Ghostbusters has been adapted into many video games over the years. What was the Name of the 2023 VR ghost.

[Kevin Coelho]

Ghostbusters Rise of the Ghost Lord.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Ghostbusters rise of the Ghost Lord. Is the correct answer.

[Nick Scarpino]

Worst day of my life. It was the best day. That just changed.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You have just won one of Tim stars, I believe, tying us up for the season. Now, here's the thing, Greg. I want to give you the one time option of triple or nothing. Greg, since you got the question right, I want to give you the option to go triple or nothing. All right? If you say yes, here are the rules. I can ask one more question for a chance for Greg to steal two more stars from Tim for a total of three stars.

[Nick Scarpino]

However, no.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

If Tim gets this next one right, not only does he take back his star, he gets to take back team Blue forever. Team Blue will then trade their star total with team Orange. Greg, wait.

[Kevin Coelho]

The arithmetic, it makes sense.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It makes sense.

[Kevin Coelho]

It makes sense.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You're basically trading back to team. So he's keeping the stars that you've earned is what I.

[Nick Scarpino]

Okay, okay, okay. I get blue and I win.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yes.

[Nick Scarpino]

Okay.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, yeah. You would take the stars you currently have and you would become team Blue.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right.

[Kevin Coelho]

And then I would take the stars I currently have and become Team Orange.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Correct.

[Kevin Coelho]

But so to make. So the deal here is you ask Tim a question.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

No. This is going for both of you. This is the same scenario. Greg, you can earn two. You've been asking for it the whole season.

[Kevin Coelho]

I promised it. I was promised.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is me fulfilling it. You can earn the three right here. But if you get it wrong, Tim gets you back.

[Kevin Coelho]

But what if neither of us get it? Then nobody gets it. What happens then? Well, I guess somebody get nothing, right?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. I'm gonna make sure somebody wins.

[Kevin Coelho]

Can I say what kind of game is it?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm gonna tell you what, is that your game?

[Kevin Coelho]

One of your freaking heroes? Can I have something?

[Nick Scarpino]

Oh, man, here we go.

[Kevin Coelho]

Andy, what should I do? Andy? Andy says do it. Oh, no.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right. We're going for a triple or nothing.

[Kevin Coelho]

I didn't say yes. Let's do it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We're gonna do it. Now, this is gonna be a one round kind of feudy. You each will get two chances to guess the top answers for the prompt. Because he's the challenger, Greg will go first. The prompt is name a game with a lot of climbing. For this one, I'll accept franchise answers. And also for context, this is from a spring 2024 poll. So you're not getting answers from after spring of this of last year. We're going to start off with Greg Miller, uncharted Greg says uncharted. Uncharted is our 50 answer, Tim. Of course, this is regular count of feedy rules, so you each get two guesses here. Tim, you're up.

[Nick Scarpino]

Legend of Zelda.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says Legend of Zelda. Legend of Zelda. Yeah.

[Kevin Coelho]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Is our 40 point.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I thought it was 50 answer. Greg, we're back to you name a game with a lot of climbing.

[Nick Scarpino]

Oh, man, there's a lot. This is really bad now.

[Kevin Coelho]

This is rough now. And you are accepting franchises.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Franchises.

[Kevin Coelho]

I'm gonna risk it for the biscuit here. I'm gonna go with the audience being more recent duckies. All right, I'm gonna say Star Wars Jedi Fallen order. You know, throw it all together.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg says Star Wars. Star wars is not on the list.

[Kevin Coelho]

Doors wide open.

[Nick Scarpino]

I know. So bad, man.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You need a 30 or 20 point answer.

[Nick Scarpino]

I want to let you all know how bad I am right now, that all I have in my head. All that I have in my head is Kevin's dong just swinging around and mount your friends.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, okay, but that's a great answer.

[Nick Scarpino]

I know, but it's not you. No.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, all right, all right.

[Nick Scarpino]

I need.

[Kevin Coelho]

Can we get the timer up? Can we get the timer up, Barrett? Can we get the timer up, Barrett?

[Nick Scarpino]

I have enslaved Odyssey to the west on my mind. Like that's where I'm at right now.

[Kevin Coelho]

No, can we get the timer, Barrett?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That's not how Feudi works.

[Carl Jacobs]

Yeah, man.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Usually I'm the timer. You also. You also took your sweet time.

[Nick Scarpino]

Tomb Raider.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says Tomb Raider.

[Kevin Coelho]

I like the smile. That means you got it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tomb Raider is not on the list. Greg just won two more of Tim Stars. Yes.

[Kevin Coelho]

Come on.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Fun fact. Tomb Raider was our sixth place answer. No, our ten point answer that nobody got was Horizon. The Horizon Zero dawn and Horizon. Forbidden West Games.

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, my God.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Our 20 point answer, Assassin's Creed, which I'm shocked. Right on the table for you. Assassin's Creed. And then our 30 point answer was Jason. If you wanted to go with recency bias. Of course, Jason came out a couple years ago, but last spring it was still on our audience members minds there. Of course. Bring up the star track here if you're able to bear it. Because coming into this, Greg was sitting at four stars with team Blue. Tim was sitting at six stars with team Orange because Greg just stole three. We did it.

[Kevin Coelho]

God and or Satan. We did it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Team Blue.

[Kevin Coelho]

We finally righted some wrongs.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg and team Blue are now at 7 stars total. Meanwhile, Team Orange is now back Competing with team purple. 3. We got three stars for team orange. Team purple still sitting at one star. Until next time, it's been our pleasure to serve you.

[Kevin Coelho]

I did it. I was three.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Today we end the season. Get ready for Game showdown. Yo, what's up? Welcome to Game Showdown. I'm your host, Blessing Adeliea Jr. And I'm joined by three contestants representing three teams. We have Tim Geddes representing Team Orange with the title on his shoulder.

[Nick Scarpino]

Still mine. And it will be after this. Somehow, some way, I see some stars over there. They will be mine.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We got Andy Cortez representing Team Purple.

[Carl Jacobs]

Happy to be here, everybody. You know, it's my last episode on Game Showdown, but how good is kind of beauty, right? Bring it back full time like the good times.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And we have Greg Miller, the stars in the bank, winner of the season.

[Kevin Coelho]

Representing team Blue, the team that's about to three Pete. All right. Team Blue, unstoppable out here.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We haven't corrected because season one wasn't Team Blue. We're not going to worry about that.

[Kevin Coelho]

That's photoshopped. I'm surprised you're buying into the fake news. The other thing we do need to address, though, is with Andy's retirement, that was a deal him and I brokered, not again as contestants, but as manager, CEO and employee. And so Andy said he would trade me as one star if Snow Mike. Mike could replace him on the next season. And so that's a done deal.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I need Bear, you're a manager, but you start to funnel this down through the producers of the. No, thank you, Baron. No. This is not sanctioned. I'm not sanctioning. No, this stuff's not happening. Contestants, we're going to start off with a trivia question worth an entire star. You can buzz in to answer. Now, this is going to be a round of bullet points. I'm going to read to you details about a game one bullet point at a time. It is your job to buzz in. And guess what this game is. You can buzz in once per bullet point. Contestants, are you ready?

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah.

[Kevin Coelho]

So good.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bullet point number one. This game's director was chosen by IGN as one of the top 100 game creators of all time.

[Carl Jacobs]

Talking about the game or the director?

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, it's bullet points on the back of the box for the game. So I'm gonna say Sid Meier's Pirates.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Sid Meier's Pirates is incorrect.

[Kevin Coelho]

Thank you. Happy to be here.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Remember, you can buzz in once per bullet point, so there's no risk. Tim Geddes Uncharted 2 Uncharted 2 is incorrect.

[Carl Jacobs]

Andy Metal Gear Solid 2 Metal Gear.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Solid 2 is incorrect. Bullet point number two. This game spawned two sequels and has another title currently in development. It spawned two sequels. Tim Gettys, Ninja Gaiden Ninja Gaiden is incorrect.

[Kevin Coelho]

Great pull though. Great pull.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And has another title currently in development. If nobody has a guess, I'll move on to Bullet Point Number three. This game came out the same year as Crisis and Stranglehold. This game came out the same year as Crisis and Stranglehold. That is Bullet Point Number three. Andy Cortez Elder Scrolls Morrowind Elder Scrolls Morrowind is incorrect.

[Kevin Coelho]

Greg Gears of War I know. That's not right. That doesn't add up.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Gears of War is incorrect. Bullet Point Number four. This game is published by the same company as Duke Nukem Forever. Greg Miller Borderlands Borderlands is incorrect.

[Kevin Coelho]

Dang, dude, there's another one where I cleared it and as I'm saying, I'm like, oh, there's been more than two sequels. But yeah, do the damn thing. Had to say it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Bullet point number five. This game is first person and has a hex. Andy Cortez BioShock. BioShock is the correct answer.

[Nick Scarpino]

Oh, what? That was great. Great set of bullet points.

[Kevin Coelho]

Blast.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Thank you. I agree.

[Carl Jacobs]

That was good. Very good.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I worked hard on that one. Of course Team Purple came this episode sitting on only one star. Because of that correct answer, Team Purple is now up to two stars total. Great work.

[Kevin Coelho]

Great work.

[Carl Jacobs]

Team Purple tied Roger for the amount of stars are in this.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The last bullet point was going to well to finish that fifth bullet point, right? Of course. This game is first person and has a hacking system. And then the final bullet point was going to be that this game allows you to biologically modify your body for upgrades such as spewing fire or hornets. So there you go. That is Bioshock for you.

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. You can buzz in once per round. If you give the correct answer, that is 10 points. Whoever gets the most points by the end of round robin receives a star. However, today's round robin is a bit different from normal. On this round robin, I'm only asking questions that you've heard before in this season, most of which you have all answered incorrectly.

[Kevin Coelho]

That's brilliant. That's brilliant.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Are you ready?

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, yeah. Why not?

[Nick Scarpino]

You're about to look real stupid if.

[Carl Jacobs]

You thought I didn't remember things before.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Round number one in the Witcher 3 the Wild Hunt, Sasha is the alias of which character this was asked in the first episode of the season.

[Nick Scarpino]

I do remember that.

[Kevin Coelho]

I remember the question. Is this the one where we get multiple choice if we don't get it? Greg Miller Yennefer.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yennefer is incorrect. Andy and Tim look like they don't have the other one.

[Carl Jacobs]

I remember that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

If nobody has the answer, the correct answer is Karthia Van Canton AKA Cantorella. Of course I told you guys this answer about 10 weeks ago. You should have remembered it.

[Kevin Coelho]

No, no. Don't know who that is.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Round two, the Orange Box, released in 2007, is a video game compilation containing five games developed and published by Valve. What were the five games? Greg Miller Damn it.

[Kevin Coelho]

So it was Portal, Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode 1, Half Life 2 Episode 2, and then Team Fortress.

That is incorrect. Tim Gettys Bullshit it is.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yep.

[Nick Scarpino]

Portal, Team Fortress 2, Half Life 2 Half Life 2 Episode 1 and Half Life 2 Episode 2.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim that is the correct answer. That is 10 points for Tim as you go into round number three. The WWE Wrestling games are known for many things. One of those things is their creation suite allowing you to create a wrestler, create an entrance and more.

Create a finisher is the correct answer. That is 10 points to Greg Miller. Round number four. In an earlier episode of Game Showdown, I claimed that since 2009 From Software has released two games published by PlayStation. Excuse me. As platform exclusives. When asking what the two games were, the answer of Bloodborne in Demon Souls was rewarded as the correct answer. However, I was actually incorrect. There was a third from software platform Exclusive published by PlayStation during this time. Andy Dera Scene Derosina is the correct answer. Andy Cortez, tying this up to 10 points each for for our contestants. Round number five. This is a list countdown. I'm going to list entries in a top 10 list from 10 to 1. It is your job to buzz in. And guess what the top 10 topic is.

[Kevin Coelho]

You're such a piece of shit. And I'll be like next time around if we were to listen to all the episodes. He'll never do this again.

[Carl Jacobs]

That's why I was going to go off a variation of Tim's because Tim was close. Blessing paused when you said your answer. I was like, oh, that was close.

Because it would have been Damn Fear.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Damn. Yeah. Damn Fear is what I was asking. What that was. Let's move on to round number seven. This is the return of publisher puns. I'm going to give you short puns slash clues. Each of the answers to these clues is a video game publisher. These are all new answers for this special round. Each correct answer is worth 10 points. You buzz into answer contestants, are you ready?

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

First one. This is another way to call a laughing flounder.

[Kevin Coelho]

Chucklefish.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Chucklefish is the correct answer. That is 10 points for Greg. Next. This publisher has technology so good that it brings tears to my eyes. Andy.

[Carl Jacobs]

Crytek.

Yep.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Crytek is the correct answer. That is 10 points. Next up, Never say yes. Avoid conf. Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

I got real antsy because Greg keeps beating me and I got scared. That was a.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Never soft. Never soft is not the answer.

[Kevin Coelho]

That was a good pick for not having take your hand off the buzzer. You don't get the buzzer. You buzzed in.

[Nick Scarpino]

Hey, I'm just getting ready for next time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, he's getting ready for round number four. But to continue on with round number three, Never say yes, avoid confirming. And if I were to put it non verbally, this. Greg.

[Kevin Coelho]

Don't nod.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Don't nod is the correct answer. Next. He's good.

[Kevin Coelho]

I like this one.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Thank you. Appreciate it. I prefer this publisher over shallow gold. Greg.

[Kevin Coelho]

Deep Silver.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Deep Silver is correct. Damn, Greg's good at this. Next up, this indie label is no longer in the public sector. Greg.

[Kevin Coelho]

Private division.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Private division is the correct answer. Next. Another way to say uncooked rage. Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

Raw fury.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Raw fury is the correct answer. Neck and neck here with Tim and Greg. Next one. Another way to say uncooked delight. Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

Raw passion.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Raw passion is incorrect. Another way to say uncooked delight. Looks like nobody else has it. The answer there would. Greg wants a second. Greg wants a second. Give you 10 seconds.

[Kevin Coelho]

So happy enjoyment.

[Carl Jacobs]

You killed that last time in this game. I didn't delight you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Five more seconds.

[Kevin Coelho]

I understand.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Three, two. The correct answer is Raw thrills.

[Kevin Coelho]

I do not realize this. What do they Make.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Ooh, is it? Yeah. Cruise and Blast. Yeah, they do a lot of arcade games.

[Kevin Coelho]

Got it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Next one. When you put something into a knot and the opposite of finger. It's a tough one. When you put something into a knot in the opposite of finger. Nobody has it. I'll review the answer. The answer is it.

[Kevin Coelho]

Can I just start guessing?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You want to guess? Yeah.

[Kevin Coelho]

I mean, I don't. Yeah, I don't want to talk it out. Are we done?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, we're done here.

[Kevin Coelho]

Okay, good. I'm not trying to get the point. I'm like idle thumbs.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I stretched this one a little bit. Taito would be it. Tai Toe.

[Kevin Coelho]

Okay. Sure is where I was going.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Taito. Okay, our last one for this round. Pay attention. Amusement. Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

Focus Entertainment.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Focus Entertainment is the correct answer and that will tie Tim in Team Orange with Team Blue. Now, from here on, correct answers are worth 20 points, and I'm not asking questions to the group. These are tailored questions for each contestant and you only have 15 seconds to answer, starting with Greg Miller. Greg, Sid is a cranky villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Animal Crossing New Horizons and was added to Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. What type of animal is Sid? I've asked you this one directly before.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, I think I've answered the exact same way. I'm being pulled again because I want to say wolf, toad or frog? Frog. Frog.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg says frog version. Frog is incorrect. Now, since Greg got this wrong Indian Tim, you guys have the opportunity to rob this round from Greg. I'm going to ask you the question again and I will give you multiple choice answers. Of course, Sid is a cranky villager in the Animal Crossing series, first appeared in New Horizons and was added to Pocket Camp. What type of animal is Sid? Is Sid A, a tortoise, B, a bear, or C, an elephant? Andy?

[Carl Jacobs]

C elephant.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

C elephant is the correct answer. That is 20 points for Andy, putting him back in the game.

[Carl Jacobs]

I stole that one.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy, it's on you now. What year did the first Call of Duty game release? Fuck this. You got 10 more.

[Carl Jacobs]

2003.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy says 2003. 2003 is the correct answer. It came out October 29, 2003 on PC. That's 20 more points for Andy, putting him in the lead. Tim, you're our final one here. In 2022, the Game Awards introduced a new category called Best Adaptation to recognize media adapted from video games, including films, TV and more. The inaugural nominees were Arcane Cyberpunk edgerunners Sonic 2 or Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Uncharted and a Netflix animated series based on which video game.

[Nick Scarpino]

Cuphead.

[Kevin Coelho]

Damn it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says Cuphead. Cuphead is the correct answer. Getting Tim 20 points and getting the victory here. Jared didn't get a score recap. Oh man.

[Nick Scarpino]

Feels like beating Cuphead all over again.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Of course getting the win there will bring Team Orange and Tim from three stars to a total of four stars. Putting him back in the game just a little bit.

[Nick Scarpino]

Just a little bit.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Just a little bit nipping at them heels.

[Kevin Coelho]

Keep stiff. Armin yeah Andy, I need you to turn it up. That was a great performance.

[Carl Jacobs]

Thank you. I try my best.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now we have more game showdown for you.

Brought to you by Imperial. We have told you all how important it is to developers that you wish list the games you're interested in. So if this sounds cool to you, make sure you wish list it. I can't tell you how much it helps. Imperial is a complex, feature rich action RPG where you'll be sent to a planet in a far off corner of the galaxy to explore an enormous, imposing monolith. As an elite mercenary, you'll join the expedition tasked with unearthing the secrets of the monolith and face off against the deadly automatons within. In Imperial, you'll explore four vastly different quadrants of the monolith, accessible only by using mysterious artifacts known as cartograms. Each cartogram affects which enemies, boss fights and loot will appear when you enter the monolith, so no two excursions will be the same. Find even more cardigrams to explore by looting defeated enemies or buy them from other players online at the Trading Post. You'll need to make sure you have the right gear to take on the harder cartograms, build your mercenary, choose your gear, master your abilities, and take down everything in your path. In Imperial, face off against enormous deadly bosses and seek out secret paths to find bigger and better loot, help the members of the expedition in deep branching quests and aid other players in asynchronous multiplayer. Get ready Mercenaries. The Monolith awaits. Imperial is available May 8th on PC Xbox Series XS and PlayStation 5. Wishlist now. It helps so Much.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And we're back. And now it is time for the awarding of the bonus stars. My favorite part of the finale every single season.

[Nick Scarpino]

Great.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The idea is simple. At the start of the season, I hit up our Game Showdown stack tracker, Katie G to keep track of a few key stats throughout the season. Whoever led in these stats by the end of episode 11 is awarded a bonus star today. Now we have five bonus stars to give out.

[Nick Scarpino]

Oh my God.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Let's start with a bonus star for the high score. This is for the team that got the highest score in a single episode. The winner of the high score is Team Orange, aka Tim.

[Carl Jacobs]

We all had like 300 something I think, right? Or two something I don't know.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yes. This would have been so for context, right? Greg doesn't want to pass. Keep sliding it over.

[Kevin Coelho]

Thank you as always, Katie G. Doing the devil's work.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The highest score this season was fake News. It was 310 points from Tim and Team Orange in week seven. That is. That was the Mario Party minigame or hit rap song episode. So we had like three different games that we played in one episode there. This is also the highest score ever on game showdown. It's 310 points a while. Congratulations, Tim Geddes. Next up is the Hate to see it award for the worst performance in a season.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, that's That's Greg for Carl.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Fuck. Let's see. Barrett, roll clip. Got Andy Cortez representing Team Purple.

[Carl Jacobs]

I'm gonna win this three weeks in a row.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Aim A game with force in the title.

[Carl Jacobs]

Roger will appreciate this one. G. Force. The game of the little gerbils that are in Secret Agents at the movie. The movie. Movie Tie in. Andy Returnals. Fucking lady.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I need the full name. I need the first name of this character.

[Kevin Coelho]

How sure.

[Carl Jacobs]

How. How sure are you that you need that?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm pretty sure I did. The name.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, man.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Because you got five seconds to answer.

[Carl Jacobs]

Eve.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

He says Eve. Eve is incorrect.

[Carl Jacobs]

Dang. Titus.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Titus is incorrect.

[Carl Jacobs]

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

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You're wasting time right now. Yeah, it's interesting. He's just complaining instead of actually playing.

[Carl Jacobs]

The game because he knows he's bad.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

At the game, so he just slumber. I'm sorry. Andy's talking like he hasn't been losing every other episode. Name a Crash Bandicoot character that isn't Crash.

[Carl Jacobs]

Brandy Bandicoot. Blonde hair.

[Kevin Coelho]

Not bad. Not bad.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Is that your answer? Brandi, Brandy, plan here.

[Carl Jacobs]

You know, I had a great time on Game Showdown, and I'm happy that this is my final season.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, is that something you're announcing?

[Carl Jacobs]

I'm happy that Snowbike Michael will be replacing me. The way that I look at it, Roger, it's like, kind of feudu. Is my game.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Was it aim A game with comedy that makes your eyes roll.

[Carl Jacobs]

Leisure Suit Larry.

[Kevin Coelho]

Hey. All right.

[Carl Jacobs]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Leisure Suit Larry is not, dang it, on the list? Our 20 point answer. Wish nobody got conquer.

[Kevin Coelho]

I thought about it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

God damn it. Didn't you go? You went twice. Yeah, you went first. What did I say the first one? You said Borderlands.

[Carl Jacobs]

Yeah, and then I said conquer.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Did I not say conquer? No, I'm pretty sure you did not. I forget what you said, but you did not say conquer.

[Carl Jacobs]

Larry, what did he say?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I pictured the fucking score the whole time. Andy Cortez representing Team Purple.

[Carl Jacobs]

I'm gonna get a win today. I decided I will.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah.

[Carl Jacobs]

20 minutes later. Just look at the scores right now and understand the importance of moving day, because I will end up in last place today. Taking away my earlier prediction. I was gonna win. I will end up in last place. And I need you to just look at the score right now. Last place. We were wondering if he could keep up the lead. Turns out no, he could not. He fumbled the bag. It was Andy the Nighttruck rifle.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Correct.

[Carl Jacobs]

Cortez for team purple with 200 points and fumble anything. I just answered last. What are you talking about?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm representing Team Purple, and this is the perfect position I want to be in. Right? Zero stars, zero expectations, zero rules for the win. Roger says Freaky Friday. Freaky Friday is our 40 point. Andy.

[Carl Jacobs]

I did what you couldn't do.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I want you guys to draw Chris P. Bacon. Andy.

[Carl Jacobs]

Andy Hellers again.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Guy for Chris P. Baking.

[Kevin Coelho]

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

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Nick Scarpino]

The head circle.

[Kevin Coelho]

It's just DC Comics hit event zero hour where everybody got winded out at the end of the column, right?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Come on now. Have a Coke. Let's see. Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

It's just a classic pig. Tim.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Chummy Greggs.

[Kevin Coelho]

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

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All right, Barrett, show me Chris P. Bacon.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

So this is crispy Bacon.

[Carl Jacobs]

Which one actually matches the energy of this?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All down the middle.

[Carl Jacobs]

No, hold on, hold on.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

All down the middle. Let's be honest. We know who doesn't have it, so.

[Nick Scarpino]

It'S between the two middle. Let's. Let's say who does it.

[Kevin Coelho]

Hold on.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

One, two, three.

[Kevin Coelho]

Andy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Congratulations, Andy. You've earned yourself another star.

[Carl Jacobs]

Thank you. A great, fun song for my final season.

[Kevin Coelho]

What a go. But I love to give that. You give me that.

[Carl Jacobs]

Of course, of course.

[Kevin Coelho]

That should say eight, Barrett and two.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Next up, we have the biggest loser. This is for the total. This is for the total. Most lost points in Rogue Robin.

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, give me. Give it to me.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Just give it to me. You know, it does go to Greg Team Million ways.

[Kevin Coelho]

I. I'm with you, Reddit and commenters. I see you. I don't know why he doesn't read them, that there's better ways to do them.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You agree about the Dom Fear thing. So across two games, he played two games of Rogue Robin this season. Greg and team blue lost 240 points total. Andy purple lost 200. And Tim, team orange have lost 90 points. So congratulations.

[Nick Scarpino]

So let's reward that. You know what I mean? That's great.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

These are also kind of make goods.

[Carl Jacobs]

You know, socialism, you know, make good God.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The next one is for the most tips of the hats this season.

[Carl Jacobs]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Team Purple tied.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

With team Blue.

[Carl Jacobs]

Wow, look at that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Which tied with team Orange. Therefore, everybody gets a star. Everybody gets a Star, you guys can share this.

[Kevin Coelho]

And this is what's wrong wrong with this goddamn generation participation trophies. You know what I mean?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg and team blue had three tips of hats. Which team purple had as well. Which team orange had as well. I gave out three tips of the hats. Team orange though did get some hob knobs which I don't. I don't remember what that was.

[Nick Scarpino]

So that doesn't count as me winning this.

[Kevin Coelho]

Nope.

[Carl Jacobs]

Sure doesn't.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Some hobnobs.

[Carl Jacobs]

Makes a lot of sense.

[Nick Scarpino]

Some hob knobs.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Carl Jacobs]

I'll tell you what makes a lot of sense. Why he didn't give me a tip of the hat earlier when I. I'm.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Glad you understand that because that is why I was like I can't fuck with the numbers.

[Carl Jacobs]

Makes a lot of sense.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We have.

[Kevin Coelho]

God, imagine if you had forgotten that you were able to call him.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We have one more bonus star to give out here and it is for most improved guest Barrett. Roll the clip. We have very special guest Carl Jacobs representing team blue.

[Barrett Courtney]

One more time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I feel like you forgot something. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. Carl Jacobs representing two time season champions team blue. Order of what the stars in the bank briefcase.

[Kevin Coelho]

Stars in the bank, everybody. That's what it is. Tim's worst fucking nightmare. Isn't that right Gia? Try to sleep now. Try to go on vacation. We got Carl.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Name a video game character who lives in a house.

[Barrett Courtney]

Dude, I got a good one. For some reason I have Nathan Drake in my head.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, that's a good one.

[Barrett Courtney]

You know what? I'm gonna go spongebob.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Carl says spongebob. Spongebob is not. It should have been though.

[Barrett Courtney]

I feel like it should have been.

[Carl Jacobs]

Carl had the first one that I.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Was thinking of Nathan Drake and he says Nathaniel Drake. Nathan drake is our 50 point. You had that. You had it. You had it. You totally had it.

[Carl Jacobs]

You had it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You totally had it. Name a popular flash game over dumbasses. We're going to start off with Karl Jacobs confidence.

[Barrett Courtney]

Because it hit me that everybody that's answering these watch you guys. So they probably also don't know I'm locking in Run the game. Run on cool Math Games. It's run and that's getting 50 points.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Carl Jacobs is locking in run on cool math games.

[Nick Scarpino]

I am.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Run is not on the list. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

[Barrett Courtney]

You laughed at me. Run is the most popular game that's ever released on cool math.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I need to look that up because I remember.

[Carl Jacobs]

I remember bringing the cool Mackenz bonafide here.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Why Am I saying that like it's not cool? Mad kids.

[Nick Scarpino]

He thought of it.

[Barrett Courtney]

If there's one more turn.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Nope.

[Carl Jacobs]

No.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You answer twice.

[Nick Scarpino]

Game over. Dumbass.

[Carl Jacobs]

Things aren't going good.

[Kevin Coelho]

Loser. This is why you'll never be Mrs.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Beast. Name a yellow video game character. Dude. Dude.

[Barrett Courtney]

It's my chance, baby. What is SpongeBob Square SquarePants. That's locked.

[Carl Jacobs]

You're the best. You're the best.

[Barrett Courtney]

Is that not the best one?

[Carl Jacobs]

You're the best.

[Barrett Courtney]

What's the best one?

[Carl Jacobs]

You're the best.

[Nick Scarpino]

Just mean to give the points to Andy Khan. Did you really love that?

[Barrett Courtney]

What's the other yellow one?

[Nick Scarpino]

You're the best.

[Barrett Courtney]

Holy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You're welcome, man. I did it first.

[Carl Jacobs]

Let's go, big dog. Let's go, big dog.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Spongebob is our ten point answer.

[Carl Jacobs]

Okay.

[Nick Scarpino]

Points on the board.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That's points on the board there.

[Carl Jacobs]

Pikachu.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy says Pikachu.

[Barrett Courtney]

Did I tell you that wasn't even the one that I had a realization about.

[Nick Scarpino]

That's amazing.

[Carl Jacobs]

I don't know if we've seen a double digit game in a long time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

There is a conflict of interests.

[Barrett Courtney]

Yeah.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Patreon producers list them. Delaney Twining. Carl Jacobs. My God. You produce this show?

[Barrett Courtney]

No. You know what? We're not sure if that's me.

[Kevin Coelho]

No.

[Barrett Courtney]

I'm not the only Carl Jacobs. I have an uncle named Carl Jacobs. I have a grandpa named Carl Jacobs.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is wild.

[Barrett Courtney]

He passed away. Maybe he never stopped renewing though.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, he was a fan back in 2015.

[Barrett Courtney]

Maybe he never stopped renewing. We don't know.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Name a Battle Royale game that is not Fortnite Warzone or Apex Legends. Carl, It's a text that I have to pay. He has to pay it.

[Barrett Courtney]

What is PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Carl says PlayStation All Stars. Battle Royale. PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale is not on.

[Barrett Courtney]

Oh, I was really. I truly believed it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Barrett Courtney]

Okay. Tetris 99.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tetris 99 is our 30 point answer, ladies and gentlemen. God.

[Barrett Courtney]

I'm doing it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Congratulations, Carl Jacobs. Now, because he's our most improved guest of the season, it is Carl's star to give. So let's see who it's gonna be.

[Nick Scarpino]

Oh, Lord.

[Barrett Courtney]

Hey, what's going on, guys? Kinda Funny nation here. I just wanted to say thank you so much for choosing me to be the guest of the year for Kinda Funny Game Showdown. And because of that honor, I get to award a bonus star. And it should be no surprise who this bonus star is going to. Greg Miller. Give a round of applause for Andy Corte the winner of this prize.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Barrett Courtney]

Thanks for letting me be a part of this goofy old game that we play and see you guys next time.

[Carl Jacobs]

Thanks, Carl.

[Andy Cortez]

Wow.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

There you go.

[Carl Jacobs]

That's amazing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

If we can bring up the Star Trek final bonus star here. Of course.

[Carl Jacobs]

Now we have comeback season.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Team Purple, AKA Andy Cortez sitting at five stars. Team Orange is now up to six stars. Team Blue is up to nine stars. Before we move on to our final segment, I got some more fun stats for you. Brought to you by the one and only Katie G. No one has guessed the warm up question in episode one in all three seasons. Fun fact. But someone has got the answer in every single other episode. Across all seasons. Tim slash Orange has the highest cumulative score and the fewest wrong answers. Although Tim before they switched. No, this is for this season. That's still current.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah, still my name. He doesn't own that yet.

[Kevin Coelho]

KG is always gonna find some way to me over. That's all she does.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It's the Team Orange version of Tim. And then although Tim has the most cumulative points, Greg has given the most right answers this season.

[Kevin Coelho]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg slash Team Blue has also answered the most questions total and has passed the lease as well. Andy was right that he's coming second the most. Andy slash Team Purple has come second six times this season. Team Blue got the most 10 point answers in kind of feudi. But none were from Greg. It was all Carl and Nick Scarpino.

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, okay. That's an interesting set.

[Nick Scarpino]

This fucking show.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

In week six's kind of feudy. We saw the only clean sweep of the season in round two. This meant that Andy didn't get a second guess that round as all five answers were found in the first five guesses. There are also two full wipes in week seven, rounds one and five, which meant that all answers were guessed. But it took all six guesses. In week six, Team Blue, AKA Carl officially got the lowest ever kind of beauty score with just 50 points. Before that it had been. It had been team orange with 70 points in season two, episode nine.

[Carl Jacobs]

Finally.

[Kevin Coelho]

Tim, that was you.

[Nick Scarpino]

That was you.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh my God.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Team Orange stick off the joint. Our final bullet point here, the lowest winning score was from Greg in week 11 with 80 points. That is it for the awarding of the bonus stars. Now it's time for final feudy. Barrett, do me a favor. Reset the scores.

[Kevin Coelho]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Because the rules are simple. In September of 2024, Madeline Stanley surveyed over 700 members of the kind of funny audience on a number of prompts she then proceeded to not use answers from her survey and opted to quiz us on Stobike Mike's answers for a special episode of Game Showdown. Today, we finally use the actual answers to her poll with a couple of returning questions and some new ones as well. Each round, I'm going to read to you a prompt and we'll ask each of you which answer you think the Kind of Funny Best Friends gave the most. I've narrowed down to five answers per prompt. If you give the correct answer, the more popular the answer, the more points you'll receive. However, Final Feudy is different from Kind of Feudi. Final Feud is only two rounds in a bonus round and you get a star for every 50 points. So if you end the game with 100 points, that is two stars. Contestants, are you ready?

[Carl Jacobs]

Ready?

[Kevin Coelho]

Yes, I believe I am. Blessing. Thank you for asking me.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Round. Why is he on what's up with the bat?

[Carl Jacobs]

Am I thinking one?

[Nick Scarpino]

I know he already won.

[Kevin Coelho]

No, no, no, no, no, no. You know how this goes.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Round number one. What is the best video game movie? We're going to start off with the person with the lowest amount of stars currently. Andy Cortez.

[Carl Jacobs]

The best video game movie.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Correct. What is the best video game movie?

[Carl Jacobs]

Not franchise.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Not franchise. What is the best video game movie? I believe Mike, when we did the fun episode last year with Madeline Stanley, his answer was something that we were. We were like, you don't talk Tomb Raider. I think it was Tomb Raider. Yeah.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, that's right. That's right. That's where he said Chiodo says one of the music acts. Best video game movie. Ah. I'm gonna go with the Super Mario Brothers movie.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy says the Super Mario Brothers movie. Super Mario brothers is our 50 point answer. That is an entire star right there. Thank you for Andy Cortez. We'll tabul that later. Next up, Tim Geddes.

[Nick Scarpino]

Detective Pikachu.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says Detective Pikachu. Detective Pikachu is our 30 point answer. Greg Miller.

[Kevin Coelho]

Sonic the Hedgehog.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg says Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic the hedgehog is our 20 point answer. We're back to Andy.

[Carl Jacobs]

When Was this done?

[Kevin Coelho]

September 2024.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

September 2024.

[Kevin Coelho]

Madeline Stanley was here. You had pizza for lunch.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We did have pizza.

[Carl Jacobs]

Was that the day where Mike ordered the pepperoni less pizza? I think that was the day he had no one to blame even though he really wanted to play Roger. I'll go with Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy says Sonic 2. Sonic 2 is our 10 point answer.

[Nick Scarpino]

Tim, you're up can you quickly say the question again?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yes. What is the best video game movie? We only have our 40 point answer.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah, I know.

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, wow. We're close to a full wipe sweep clean.

[Nick Scarpino]

Pokemon the first movie.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says good. Pokemon the first movie. Pokemon the first movie is not on the list.

[Carl Jacobs]

Uncharted.

[Kevin Coelho]

Greg Miller, sonic the Hedgehog 3.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, fuck me.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg says Sonic 3 dragon. Fortunately, Sonic 3 came out months after. Oh yeah, Madeline was here.

[Kevin Coelho]

It's all new to me. I watched him at home with Ben. These are great flicks.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It is not on the list. The 40 point answer which nobody got. Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat, the original Mortal Kombat movie. With that, andy got the 10 point answer with Sonic 2. Greg got the 20 point answer with Sonic 1. Tim got Detective Pikachu which was 30 points. And Andy got our 50 point answer with Super Mario Brothers.

[Carl Jacobs]

Everybody say Uncharted.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I think a few people said it's not bad. It's fine.

[Nick Scarpino]

It's not a great Uncharted.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, you know what I mean?

[Carl Jacobs]

I'll say. What the Warcraft movie. Underrated next.

[Nick Scarpino]

I didn't mean to actually hit it. Gotta be real.

[Kevin Coelho]

I mean I would dock a pointer.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The full star round number two. Which game has the best character creation system?

[Kevin Coelho]

Shit.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Now fuck. Because of a tie, there are two 20 point answers. We're gonna start off with Team Blue as Greg Miller.

[Kevin Coelho]

Fuck. I remember this one. I remember when Mike ran in and had a bunch of. Fuck.

[Carl Jacobs]

Wait, are these.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

These are the real answers? These are the real answers. These are audience answers.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, I remember Mike's answer pissed me off.

[Kevin Coelho]

But I remember he gave one. There was one that made sense that he said that we. That I was like, I want to, but that's where it's in my head now. And I feel like that's not our audience. But our audience also knows things. But then do they know this? September 2024.

[Carl Jacobs]

Never forget.

[Kevin Coelho]

Never forget.

[Carl Jacobs]

The day the earth stood still.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, I know.

[Carl Jacobs]

We had pepperoni. Less pizza.

[Nick Scarpino]

Pepperoni list.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That was such a sad day too.

[Carl Jacobs]

We were all so sad. Everybody was so upset and he was like distraught. Like you could tell. He was like, I this up.

[Kevin Coelho]

You ruined.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

You ruined the day for us. We were just eating.

[Carl Jacobs]

We're like, man, you really underrate how heavy the pepperoni carries the experience. I was trying to bread pepper.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I was like the 32nd timer.

[Kevin Coelho]

I'll go if you want. I. It's. I'm going to say it, it is a good one, but it's the NBA 2K series.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Greg says, NBA Camera.

[Kevin Coelho]

If that was Mike's. And we were like, that's a great answer. And got Nowhere or what?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

NBA 2K is not on the list. Tim Gettys, Black Desert. Tim Getty says Black Desert. Black desert is our 10 point answer. Andy.

[Carl Jacobs]

Best character creator. I'm gonna go with remember one of the answers. And it pissed me off. But those weren't the real answers.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yeah, I know.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. Not the same answers today.

[Carl Jacobs]

Yeah. And that's why I was so quizzical that day.

[Nick Scarpino]

Great work.

[Carl Jacobs]

Why would they say that? You know, while you eat your pepperoni. Pepperoni dry. I'm gonna go with the Sims 4.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Okay, Andy.

[Kevin Coelho]

Respect.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Says the Sims 4. The Sims, and it's packaged as a franchise, is our 20 point. It's one of our 20 point answers. We have two 20 point answers as a reminder.

[Kevin Coelho]

Got it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

We're back to Greg Miller, Dragon's Dogma 2. Greg says Dragon's Dogma 2. Dragon's Dogma 2 is our 40. Damn it, dude.

[Kevin Coelho]

Like, I knew it. I remember being there and me being like, oh, wow.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim.

[Nick Scarpino]

I'm gonna say Miis, Nintendo Me.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says Nintendo Me's Nintendo. Miis are not on the list.

[Carl Jacobs]

Andy, Dragon Age the Veil Guard.

[Kevin Coelho]

If only, man.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy says Dragon Age the Veil Guard. Dragon Age the Veil Guard is not on the list. I think you mistimed that. I think Dragon Age the Veil Guard might have been an October game. Or at least the poll probably went out before that game came out.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, I thought that was a February game. Why am I thinking that was an early game? Whoops.

[Kevin Coelho]

We went to that preview event somewhere in there.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, that may have been.

[Kevin Coelho]

You spent all the time with the character.

[Carl Jacobs]

I remember Mike. One of Mike's answer being World of Warcraft. I was like, what? There's like five hairstyles.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Unfortunately, this could have been a big round for you, Andy, because, yeah, our. Our 20 point answer, which nobody got, or one of the 20 point answers, which nobody got, was WWE 2K, which I thought Greg would do, but he went to with NBA instead. Our 30 point answer, Cyberpunk 2077. And then our 50 point answer, which I thought would have would have been Andy's bag was Baldur's Gate 3. Oh, I thought Baldur's Gate 3 and Dragon's Dogma 2 being the top two might have put you in contention for maybe a huge comeback.

[Carl Jacobs]

I've always thought that was an overrated character. Character here, to be honest with you. Dragon's Dogma, Dragons. Dragon Age. Veilgar clears but wrong bid with that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim got the 10 point with Black Desert. Andy got the 20 point with the Sims. Greg got the 40 point with Dragons Dogma 2. It's now time for our bonus round. I have three categories left on the board. Each of you has one shot to choose a category and clean up the answers on the board for those amount of points. If you get one strike, you're done, and we end your run there. We'll start with the person who has the least stars. Andy Cortez.

[Carl Jacobs]

Can you really explain the rules one more time? I'm just phased out there.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. So I got three categories I'm gonna put up. Right. That you get to choose from. You have. You have one shot to clean up the answers on that category. Guess what all those answers are. If you make a mistake, that's where it ends.

[Kevin Coelho]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And we just give you the points that. That you already got. Our three categories are. If Barrett can pull them up. You got Trophy Hunter, Aged Like Milk, and Go Fish. Andy. It's your choice on which one you want to tackle here.

[Carl Jacobs]

Aged Like Milk.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Andy is going with Aged Like Milk. The prompt read like. Reads like this. Name a game that is not as good as you remember it.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, dang, that's tough. Franchises.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

No.

[Carl Jacobs]

Okay. Name a game that is not as good as you remember it. God damn.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'll go.

[Carl Jacobs]

I don't know. Super Mario Sunshine.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Mario Sunshine is our 40 point answer.

[Carl Jacobs]

Holy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

What's your next guess?

[Carl Jacobs]

This one's a little too meta, so I don't want to go for that yet, but I'm gonna say.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

After a little bit, I will add a timer.

[Carl Jacobs]

Ocarina of Time.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Ocarina of Time is not on the list, so that is where your run ends.

[Nick Scarpino]

Next up, can I ask the 50 point answer just for fun?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, go for it.

[Nick Scarpino]

Goldeneye.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Goldeneye would have been the 50 point answer. The 30 point answer would have been Mario 64. The 20 point answer would have been Uncharted 1, and then the 10 point answer would have been GTA 3. Tim, we got two categories left for you to choose from. Do you want to go with Trophy Hunter or Go Fish? Of course it's a big decision because Greg Miller is the trophy guy.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah, it's. It's.

[Kevin Coelho]

You can already. You know how this is gonna go.

[Nick Scarpino]

I just don't know.

[Kevin Coelho]

We pulled the people of the best thing or the best trophy. Yeah. Okay.

[Nick Scarpino]

I just don't know. Fish.

[Kevin Coelho]

That's fair.

[Nick Scarpino]

That's just my big thing, man.

[Kevin Coelho]

Sure.

[Nick Scarpino]

Fishing games like, oh, man. Like, even like fishing mini games like that. I don't know. I'm going it go fish. Why not?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim is going go fishing.

[Nick Scarpino]

Let's let Greg even more.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim, what game has the best fishing mechanic?

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah. Final Fantasy 15.

[Kevin Coelho]

Yep, that's on there.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That is our 20 point answer.

[Carl Jacobs]

Now, do I want to help out just to make it close?

[Kevin Coelho]

No. Our whole thing is trying to defeat him all season long. No, you don't want to help out.

[Carl Jacobs]

He's so far behind already.

[Kevin Coelho]

No, this is to it.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

He's so you.

[Kevin Coelho]

Even if you're not on the show next time I'll fight. I'll torture you. If you do this right.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

This is a big round too, because like if Tim. Let's say Tim gets all of these and Greg up.

[Kevin Coelho]

We're aware.

[Nick Scarpino]

We're aware how important this is. I was unaware. I was unaware. I thought he won no matter what. I that up. I should have went trophy. It's fine. It's fine. I'm playing the game here.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

It's playing the game.

[Nick Scarpino]

Is it game or is it franchise? We're going Legend of Zelda.

[Kevin Coelho]

Is it a franchise?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I need a game.

[Nick Scarpino]

Okay. Legend of Zelda.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Just Legend of Zelda.

[Kevin Coelho]

No twin snakes.

[Nick Scarpino]

Fuck, man. Twilight Princess.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Tim says Zelda. Twilight Princess. Zelda. Twilight Princess is not on the list. Of course you got the 20 points with FF15.

[Carl Jacobs]

Yeah, that's what I was gonna tell you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Our 40 point answer would have been Animal Crossing. And I would have taken the franchise Animal answer for that 1. Our 50 point answer, Stardew Valley. Our 30 point answer, Red Dead Redemption 2. Our 10 point answer would have been Pokemon as a franchise.

[Nick Scarpino]

Yeah.

[Carl Jacobs]

They got fishing.

[Nick Scarpino]

I wouldn't have got Red Dead.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That's how you get.

[Nick Scarpino]

Good. Good rod.

[Carl Jacobs]

Yeah, I just think of that as like catching. I don't think of that as like a minigame in. It's just. Fishing Mechanic.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. Fishing mechanic. Yeah. Greg, I'm pretty sure you have the season on the bag by the way that math works, but we'll try not to.

[Kevin Coelho]

We'll try to act like we don't for.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Just for a victory round. And of course, now you're. You're. You've ended up with Trophy Hunter as your prompt.

[Kevin Coelho]

Sure.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Which reads like this. Name an embarrassing trophy slash achievement that you have.

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, sure.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

For this one, I will accept the name of the game that the trophy is from if you can describe to me how to get the trophy.

[Kevin Coelho]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah. Oh, what you got for me?

[Kevin Coelho]

I mean, my name is Mayo. Would be right at the top of the list where you're just tapping on mania showers.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

The platinum. Yeah, I'm gonna give that to you. That is the 40 point answer.

[Carl Jacobs]

You really fucked up.

[Kevin Coelho]

Thank you. Well, he wouldn't have had any of these. I would at least have. I would have. I had Final fantasy for the fishing.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I didn't.

[Kevin Coelho]

So then just an embarrassing trophy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Kevin Coelho]

There's that one God of War 3:1 that's very like. I would have fucked her if I had him. Let her get ripped in half or some shit like that. I forgot what it was called.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

That one is not on the list. Our 10 point answer. The ZJ. The ball. Platinum. Ah.

[Kevin Coelho]

Okay.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Our 20 point answer is called I swear I did it by mistake. It's from Lollipop Chainsaw. And it's that you peep skirt. Yeah. You peeped under Juliet's skirt once.

[Kevin Coelho]

I read about that.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Our 30 point answer is dot, dot, dot. I did it for the achievement. This is from Yakuza 0 it is. You watch a racy video.

[Kevin Coelho]

Oh, nice.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

And then our. You got the 40.1. Which is the. My name is Mayo Platinum. And then our 50 point answer is. What are you doing? From Nier Automata where you. It's it. The description just reads 2B's secret discovered 10 times. I'm pretty sure you look up her skirt 10 times for this.

[Kevin Coelho]

Got it. Sure. Fair.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Fair secret with that. It's now time for the tabulations. If I'm looking at this correctly, right. Team Blue, Greg Miller would have got. I don't know why I wrote down Barrett in my document. Greg Miller would have gotten two stars for that round. Team Purple, AKA Andy, also would have gotten two stars for that round. And Tim would have gotten one star for that round. Barrett, if we can bring up the star standings. Doing the math here.

[Carl Jacobs]

Team blue from nine to 11 went from nine.

[Nick Scarpino]

Some things are just a little too perfect.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Team Blue went from nine to 11. Team Purple went from seven to nine. Or sorry, five to seven. And then Team Orange went from six to seven.

[Carl Jacobs]

Look at us. Just side by side too.

[Nick Scarpino]

Feels good.

[Carl Jacobs]

We're equals in every way.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, I mean, that's big. Andy Cortez was able to catch up to second place. But of course we have our one true champion of the season. Congratulations, Greg Miller. And team Blue.

[Nick Scarpino]

At least. At least I can see those three.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Stars really became pivotal.

[Kevin Coelho]

It's back home, as you would think they would. You know what I mean? And as one man thought they would. And his name was Greg Miller.

[Carl Jacobs]

Oh, God. What did he.

[Kevin Coelho]

I've been waiting a long time to break this out. What is this, Andy? Now, I'm gonna need your help, all right? I need you to read this email, all right? You can read everything that's highlighted.

[Carl Jacobs]

Okay? Everything that's highlighted. Kind of funny. Podcast interview with Guy Fieri. Hey, Sarah. And then redacted. Okay. If we couldn't get Guy in the office, I'd morph the idea into something else. I think a funny bit would be that out of the blue, on an episode, I announced that the amount I'm winning this season has turned head. And I'm happy to announce my first personal sponsor, Santo Spirits, and reveal that I'm wearing a Santos Spirit shirt. Midway through the episode, I say I need some inspiration to answer, and I pour myself a splash of Santo spirit. Then in the last round, I say I need a pep talk. And I play a video from Guy telling me I can do it. Thoughts?

[Kevin Coelho]

And what's the date?

[Carl Jacobs]

February 4, 2025.

[Kevin Coelho]

Guy Fieri's people never got back to me. They sent me the alcohol when they thought I was gonna do an interview with Guy. And then when they were like, well, he can't come in. And I was like, well, what if he calls into our game? Stop talking to me.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'm a champion. I'm a champion. You know, Greg told me about this bit months and months ago, and I forgot because so much other shit has.

[Kevin Coelho]

Happened under my desk for so long. Roger, come get some delicious Santos spirit to celebrate my victory. The Saint Spirit put it together, of course, for Team Blue. The Three Pete. The Three Pete Champions. Here, Andy, Want to be part of it? No. Okay. Thank you, Andy. Want to be a part of it. The Three Pete Champions Team you. Fuck off. Nobody's choosing you. And what I need everyone to understand is I heard. I heard all the feedback about Stars in the Bank. Maybe it went on too long. Maybe it should have infected content as much as it did. You have no idea how annoying I'm going to be about this championship. Do you want to know what's happening Very soon. Throwing a championship parade in San Francisco, everyone.

[Carl Jacobs]

He told me that on Games Daily.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

He told me.

[Kevin Coelho]

Follow me on Blue sky to find out when and where. Santo.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, that is good. Oh, that's really good.

[Kevin Coelho]

That's actually really clean. Yeah, that goes smooth.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Oh, man. Yo, shout out. Santos. Of course, the show not sponsored, though.

[Kevin Coelho]

It could have been. Guy.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah.

[Kevin Coelho]

Where you at, Guy?

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Damn. Yeah, Guy Fieri popped off. Oh, man, it's. Give me more of that. She send more of that. Please, please.

[Kevin Coelho]

Bear, come get a pull.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

Yeah, bear, come get.

[Kevin Coelho]

Well, I guess you have to after.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I after I wrap the show because I'm about to do the outro. Of course. This has been game showdown season three. We'll be back more this year with more game showdown because we promised you two seasons plus a Nick scarpino special mini season thing that we're still trying to figure out. It's been on the it's been on the books on the calendar to meet about it for a while and things get keep happening. I went to Japan the whole thing. But we will be back with more game showdown in the future. Thank you guys so much for supporting this season of game showdown. Thank you, Greg for all of your shenanigans.

[Carl Jacobs]

Great farewell celebration for me, everybody.

[Kevin Coelho]

Andy Cortez, everybody.

[Carl Jacobs]

Thank you.

[Blessing Adioye Jr.]

I'll make sure Andy comes back. I'll try. At least. This has been game showdown season three. We'll be back with another season two. Until next time, it's been our pleasure to serve.
