Tim Geddes
Foreign. What's up? And welcome to the Kinda Funny Games cast for Friday, March 7, 2025. Of course. I'm your host, Tim Geddes. I am joined today by the Lock, the taste maker, Roger Porny.
- [00:19]
Roger Porny
What's up? I'm so excited to get freaky with you because I got some freaky video game things to talk about.
- [00:23]
Tim Geddes
Good.
- [00:24]
Roger Porny
Some freaky things that I do with my controller. Why don't you know about, huh?
- [00:27]
Tim Geddes
Why? Because it's Freaky Friday.
- [00:29]
Roger Porny
Yeah, it's freaky Friday.
- [00:31]
Tim Geddes
If y'all didn't know. Roger and I just did a games daily together. He was hosting. I was in that chair and things got a little freaky. But now it's the kind of funny games cast. The topic of the show, of course it is what we've been playing.
- [00:42]
Roger Porny
It's Freaky Friday.
- [00:43]
Tim Geddes
We switch places. They are. Dude.
- [00:47]
Roger Porny
Yeah, dude.
- [00:48]
Tim Geddes
It's filmed.
- [00:48]
Roger Porny
It's ready to go.
- [00:49]
Tim Geddes
I can't wait. I can't freaking wait. Here's the deal. We're gonna talk about what we've been playing because you've been playing the island in WWE 25. So we got to talk about that because that will make this officially a video games podcast. All right?
- [01:02]
Roger Porny
That's the only way in.
- [01:03]
Tim Geddes
That is what we've been playing. And we'll talk about that something else.
- [01:06]
Mike
Good.
- [01:07]
Tim Geddes
Okay, well, we'll talk about that too, but we who know less excited about this.
- [01:10]
Roger Porny
You don't even know what I'm playing.
- [01:12]
Tim Geddes
What the hell is it going to be?
- [01:13]
Roger Porny
It could be something really cool.
- [01:14]
Tim Geddes
It could.
- [01:15]
Roger Porny
You don't know it.
- [01:16]
Tim Geddes
Want to tease it or don't. You do not.
- [01:18]
Roger Porny
No, I don't want to tease it because you give me an attitude. Why would you give me an attitude?
- [01:21]
Tim Geddes
Well, I only gave you the tude, Raj, because we have so many things to talk about. All right, we got super chats already from games daily that we're about to get into here and now, everybody, if you have any video game questions. Note I keep saying video game. Don't ask me anything about things that aren't video games, okay? This is a video game show. We're very serious here, and it's very important that we talk about video games on the kind of Funny games cast. So get your video game questions super chatted in. We will get to them. Will Mike make an appearance on this episode? Probably. Why? Because he has a new outfit. That's why. And y'all need to see it.
- [01:52]
Roger Porny
And we're gonna play the prices. We're gonna go we're gonna all do our guesses on how much it was. And anyone that's over loses. So dies. They die.
- [02:01]
Greg Miller
They lose their life.
- [02:03]
Tim Geddes
But you know, this is gamescast. Each and every weekday we get together to talk about video games, all the things we love about them, what we're playing, what we're hoping to play later, reviews, previews, big topics, small topics. It's all here for your amusement. You can get it, of course, live on Twitch and YouTube or you can get it later. Podcast services around the globe. If you love what we do, please go above and beyond. Get the kind of funny membership it gets you. The show's ad free. It gets you the daily exclusive. Greg way that today is going to be Snowbike Mike talking, probably in his outrageous new outfit that he just got. So you'll get to see even more of that. For a chance to be part of this show, though, submit your thoughts and opinions as YouTube super chats. As we go, a little housekeeping for you. You y'all already know. But today, the adventure continues. Nick is joining Andy and Mike and Kevin as they journey into Johto for the very first time in Pokemon Heart Gold. Soul Silver. They're specifically playing Soul Silver. Mike yesterday referred to Lugia as the COVID athlete, which is really good.
- [03:04]
Roger Porny
Like, really good. Like, sometimes he just says things. I'm like, you're just saying that's really good, though.
- [03:08]
Tim Geddes
Really, really good.
- [03:09]
Roger Porny
One small one.
- [03:10]
Tim Geddes
As good as I'm sure this content is going to be, I'm sure there will be highs, there will be lows. Roger, you earlier revealed to me that you're not a Pokemon guy.
- [03:19]
Roger Porny
No, I played a little bit of Arceus. I played a little bit of X and Y and that was it. Not in that order.
- [03:25]
Tim Geddes
The problem with this is Nick's going in, doesn't know what's happening, but there's no way to fully Pokemon shield him from spoilers and moments. And that's part of the adventure. People get excited, but it's one of those chappie cool things. But it's impossible. He's already been spoiled for one thing that I really wish he wasn't.
- [03:43]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [03:44]
Tim Geddes
But I need to let you know, and I'm everyone watching now that's going to eventually be watching them. Please keep this in mind when we get there. About three gym leaders in, he's going to face the normal gym leader. Her name's Whitney. Okay. Whitney's gonna throw out a Pokemon called Miltank.
- [04:03]
Roger Porny
Miltank.
- [04:03]
Tim Geddes
It's a cow.
- [04:04]
Roger Porny
Okay. Oh, oh, no.
- [04:06]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, and he's gonna laugh when he sees it. It's pretty suggestive. All right. Big old letters. You know what I mean?
- [04:16]
Roger Porny
No way.
- [04:17]
Tim Geddes
I mean, yes way. I'm. I'm exaggerating, but just a little bit. But here's the problem, okay. This thing is kind of a difficulty checkpoint in the game.
- [04:27]
Roger Porny
So he's gonna just be laughing through it and just get fucked.
- [04:30]
Tim Geddes
It is designed to fuck you up because what it does is it uses this move called rollout that it taxes. Doesn't do that much damage. But then the next turn tax you again does even more damage. Next time attacks you. If you. If you get three hit three times.
- [04:43]
Roger Porny
Which you're going to.
- [04:44]
Tim Geddes
You're going to get fucked. Then you get this thing down. It uses a heal. It drinks its milk or whatever the fuck and it heals. Okay, this is about to be the red wedding of this nick lock.
- [04:55]
Roger Porny
Okay, how far? Like how long?
- [04:57]
Tim Geddes
It's probably going to be like four hours.
- [04:59]
Roger Porny
So like within the stream. He's going to get there.
- [05:02]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. So chat. Be cool, okay?
- [05:04]
Roger Porny
Like be really.
- [05:05]
Tim Geddes
Be really cool.
- [05:05]
Greg Miller
But I'm talking about the gym leader.
- [05:07]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Yeah. This could be the end.
- [05:10]
Roger Porny
A nasty Pokemon. This is nasty work right there.
- [05:12]
Tim Geddes
It's nasty work, everybody. I didn't design it.
- [05:15]
Roger Porny
You wish you did.
- [05:16]
Tim Geddes
I do. I'm a sick fucker.
- [05:19]
Greg Miller
It's Freaky Friday.
- [05:20]
Tim Geddes
It is Freaky Friday, everybody then. But we're not getting to that yet. After this, we have a new episode of Kind of Funny Game Showdown. Will my dominant run continue? You're gonna have to wait and find out. Thank you to our Patreon producers, Carl Jacobs Delaney Twining. Today we're brought to you by Monster Hunter Now. But we'll tell you all about that later. For now, let's begin with what is and forever will be the Rope Report. No, I'm. I'm using the wrong doc because it's freaking Friday.
- [05:46]
Roger Porny
Oh, we're all over the place. We're all over the place.
- [05:48]
Tim Geddes
Oh, my God. Let's start with the topic of the show. Roger, you played the island wwe. We've been waiting to go to the island of Relevancy for a very long time. You played it in the studio. I watched you play for about, I don't know, an hour and a half.
- [06:02]
Roger Porny
I would say too long.
- [06:04]
Tim Geddes
And I enjoyed every second of watching you play this game. Tell me about your experience.
- [06:10]
Roger Porny
Yeah, so this is WWE 2K25. And you know, it's. It's a. It's the normal release Right. Where it has like the myrise stuff, which is like their story mode. They have the universe stuff where you can just kind of do whatever you want, like have your own character and like, you know, whatever fantasy book, however you want. And then they have the showcase mode, which is really cool, which is, you know, the. It's basically a mini documentary where you play through certain moments in history this year, specifically being about the bloodline. And then they have the island, which was the new one, where we're like, what the fuck is this? And we basically have a whole podcast about it on Gamescast. I forgot what that. I think it's the.
- [06:42]
Tim Geddes
It was the monetization one, right?
- [06:43]
Roger Porny
No, I think it was the WWE 2K25 preview event.
- [06:47]
Tim Geddes
Oh, that's right.
- [06:48]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [06:48]
Tim Geddes
And then we didn't get to play the one thing we were interested in.
- [06:51]
Roger Porny
Exactly. So this was this. This is the island, which is essentially a play like the 2K series. The City.
- [06:59]
Mike
Yes.
- [06:59]
Roger Porny
Where they go around, you have a character, you create your character and you run around this, you know, mini open world. And in, in this version of it, you're, you know, using vc, you're spending money, you're buying outfits and you're leveling up and trying to become the best wrestler possible. I played a little bit of it. It is not. It's a weird one, right? Because I think we had the conversations earlier on the last week, like, not to say that we were doom and gloom on it, but also, you know, it's a new thing that's coming in hot. No one's, you know, we're not really getting too many codes for it, right. We're like, okay, is this going to be a disaster? It's not a disaster. It's like, absolutely not a disaster. It's just like it's. It. It doesn't have a place in this game necessarily. Right. Because in WWE 2K25, there's so many ways to live out my fantasies and specifically to live out this fantasy of becoming the wrestler, like starting from zero and building my way up. Right. I can do my rise, I can do my universe, I can do whatever the I want. So this just kind of feels like another additive way to do it, but also spend a fuck ton of money. Like real money, real human money. Right. So, yeah, it's. It's cool in the sense that you start off and you make your character, you create your character and it's very limited. Not like the detail of your character. You can make your character look like you, but like your outfits are very generic, right? You have, like, a few classes you can choose. I think one of them is like, social media influencer. One is like, super fan. And you make your character and then you start off and then you interact with, like, Paul Heyman and, like, R. Truth and a bunch of WWE celebrities. And the thing about it is that they don't have any voice acting, right? Like, so you're just. You're talking to them. It's a PNG of them. And then it's Paul Heyman's video game character like this. And then it's like the background, and then he says something and he's just reading a lot of text. So it feels half baked, for sure. Comparison. In comparison to, like, the Myri stuff, which is, you know, not the best voice acting in the world, but it's voice acted, right? You have Triple H doing his thing. Like, you have CM Punk actually doing VO for this. So in general, it feels half baked there. But what it doesn't feel half baked in is the world that it creates. Like, the world is not. It's cool. Like, it's a cool thing to walk around in as, like, a WWE fan, right? Like, walking around, they have, like, Greg was popping when we went to, like, an area that was, like, Undertaker themed, right? And it had a bunch of these, like, tombstones that were related to, I assume, Undertaker matches and enemies that he's had in the past.
- [09:10]
Tim Geddes
Knows dog got a big pop from him.
- [09:11]
Roger Porny
Yeah, he was. He was into it, right? So it's all these little Easter eggs that you go, and they have an Oscar area, they have a Kyrie area. Like, they get really nerdy and very specific with it.
- [09:20]
Tim Geddes
And I loved it. Like, I think that, to me, I was legitimately impressed by, like, I feel like it's Disneyland for wwe and in the sense that you're walking around and, like, some of the things are clever, some of the things are a stretch. But, like, it's fun to, like, go into the. The, like, Aztec Temple and it's, oh, this is a tribute to the ancestors. And it's like the Rey Mysterio. You go in, you see all is like. Like, an Iron man style. Seeing all the different outfits that he's had. And, like, this is cool. And you walk into the music's playing, and everywhere you go, like, different music keeps hitting. I'm like, there's something very cool here. But then there's the question of, like, okay, but what's the substance of the game? And it seems like the substance of the game is play A version of the game that's frustrating enough until you break and spend money.
- [10:05]
Roger Porny
Yes, exactly.
- [10:07]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [10:07]
Roger Porny
You're running around, you. You have a one on one NPC matches, right? Where it's just like, you know, you beat up the NPCs, you keep on going. I haven't progressed past like a few hours, right. Like, so I have maybe put an hour or two into this. So I haven't even gotten to like, hey, now you really have to go out there and fight people online, right? But there are places to fight people and kind of get your credit up and get some vc. It's just the thing that is offensive to me is the idea. Well, first things first. Is offensive to me is that they have all of these little shops, right, which are cool. Like they have like Rear Ripley's piercing and tattoo parlor or whatever. And you go in them and there's like eight things like in each of them. Like, and like, sure, there's like on paper, I'm sure there's like a hundred, you know, unique items in, in this area. But it's like they're not like that compelling. They're not that.
- [10:49]
Tim Geddes
Really not.
- [10:50]
Roger Porny
Like, especially when you have such a deep custom creator. Creator create a character that the community has done a wonderful job creating every single person humanly imaginable on this planet. I'm sure if you chatter, if you go right now onto WWE 2K24, I'm sure somehow you are in this game. Someone has made you. Yeah, it's creepy, but someone made you totally.
- [11:08]
Tim Geddes
No, but like Panda man, I've seen you.
- [11:11]
Roger Porny
It's scary. People get. People get really de. Deep into this and make everybody. So the fact that now it's like, okay, well now I have to pay for a generic mask mask at Rey Mysterio's, you know, mask house. And it's not a Rey Mysterio mask. It's just a generic regular random luchador mask. It's weird. It's weird. It's not as deep as you want it to be. Even like the Jordans, right? There's a Jordan store. And it wasn't like the retros, right? It wasn't. Tell me about that.
- [11:33]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, no, I mean it was just. It was kind of just like the, the Jordans that you'd find a Payless. You know what I mean? Like the type of things are like these aren't the real. Like they're real Jordan, I guess, but it's like they're not Jordan. They're not ones or threes or fives. Or whatever. It's like, all right, cool.
- [11:47]
Roger Porny
Yeah, yeah.
- [11:48]
Tim Geddes
So definitely let down by the options there and by the pricing of it. All of real freaking money. So yeah.
- [11:53]
Roger Porny
And I don't even know what the one to one is cuz when I was playing it I didn't, I didn't check last night to see exactly how much VC is worth so I can do the calculations but you know, it's.
- [12:01]
Tim Geddes
It'S like it seemed egregious.
- [12:02]
Roger Porny
It seemed egregious but I don't, I don't know the egregious level. Right. Like I'm sure know spending money for an in game, shitty payless version of a Jordan. Right? Like I don't, that's not something that I would ever spend money on. But I need to see how much money they're charging me, right?
- [12:13]
Tim Geddes
Totally.
- [12:13]
Roger Porny
So I don't know, I'm sure there's going to be an article on that in the next few days. But it didn't seem that. The biggest fear though, right, is eventually they're going to get some money from this and they're going to be like, we don't need to do myrise anymore. We're going to put this on the island. My rise is in the island now. Like they're going to start to do that stuff because it just makes too much sense, right? They have, they have so much high quality modes in this game. It makes sense to just streamline it. And talking about the island relevancy, I have the head of the table right here.
- [12:39]
Tim Geddes
The head of monetization.
- [12:41]
Roger Porny
The head of monetization.
- [12:41]
Mike
Did somebody talk about spending money in a video game? I'm here, let's talk about it.
- [12:51]
Tim Geddes
Mike, tell me about the fit. What's going on here?
- [12:55]
Mike
This is my new fit. This is my new fit. Let me get.
- [12:58]
Greg Miller
You could have grabbed a mic while walking in, just.
- [13:01]
Roger Porny
Jesus Christ. Okay, so we're gonna play the game, right, like, of how much this, this outfit costs. You got this last night, right? You got this outfit last night. You can talk still.
- [13:11]
Mike
No, I got this outfit a couple weeks ago when I was taking some plane trips around the globe. Roger, this is my plane fit. This is my plane. I walked into the airport like this.
- [13:22]
Tim Geddes
No. So here's the thing. Like when Mike has a new haircut, a new outfit or new anything, he becomes a different person, you know, like this new mic I'm, I'm scared of a little bit.
- [13:33]
Mike
What you think?
- [13:34]
Roger Porny
How much? Well, let's guess, let's guess.
- [13:36]
Mike
Take a guess. Take was I Was at Shoe Palace. You know, Shoe palace is a hip hot spot.
- [13:41]
Tim Geddes
You know what I mean?
- [13:42]
Mike
A lot of people very cool at.
- [13:43]
Roger Porny
Shoe palace, and they're probably like, oh, man, you could look so good in this. They showed you all the first.
- [13:48]
Mike
They said, sure, that's in the women's section. I said, I don't care, I want it.
- [13:53]
Roger Porny
You want to go first and you have that.
- [13:55]
Mike
Yeah, take a look.
- [13:56]
Tim Geddes
It's just.
- [13:57]
Greg Miller
It's just the. The jacket and the pants.
- [13:59]
Mike
Yeah, jacket in the pants.
- [14:01]
Greg Miller
I'm going to go 325.
- [14:02]
Roger Porny
I'm going to say 284.
- [14:04]
Tim Geddes
Man, I really, really, really, really hope this is closer to 150.
- [14:09]
Mike
120 for the top, 85 for the bottoms.
- [14:14]
Roger Porny
Okay, okay. Okay. Wow.
- [14:16]
Tim Geddes
All right.
- [14:17]
Greg Miller
I think Tim wins there.
- [14:18]
Mike
So, like here I am looking all good and dapper Roger, and it's like when I go into the island of relevancy in WWE 2K25, don't you think I want to make sure my people look like that. Right. So my creative character has to look this cool. And sure. I'm going to go to the Jordan shop and I'm going to pay 1200 VC for some shoes that you barely can make out in the video game. Then I'm going to buy some Jordan hoodies that you don't wear in the ring, but you wear on the island for about 800 VC and it's all worth it.
- [14:49]
Roger Porny
Did you actually do this?
- [14:50]
Mike
No, I haven't jumped on yet. I can't wait, though.
- [14:51]
Roger Porny
Show the shoes. Everybody. Show the shoes.
- [14:53]
Mike
Oh, these are. These are Converse. Because you won't buy me shoes for my birthday like you promised.
- [14:57]
Roger Porny
That's true.
- [14:58]
Mike
I've been wearing Converse.
- [14:59]
Roger Porny
I like that it turned from like, oh, I ran a marathon and now you owe me shoes too. Now it's a birthday present. And now you got to throw me a surprise birthday party, which is also part.
- [15:09]
Greg Miller
Did you run that marathon?
- [15:10]
Mike
Yeah.
- [15:13]
Roger Porny
Kevin got the math wrong.
- [15:15]
Mike
He's the math.
- [15:16]
Tim Geddes
He's very embarrassing.
- [15:19]
Roger Porny
He thought.
- [15:19]
Greg Miller
Oh, I thought you were talking. What was the one that you guys signed up for and you got the medal impromptu.
- [15:24]
Mike
I got lucky on that one. Oh, big windstorm that day, but I still got a medal. Roger.
- [15:29]
Roger Porny
I was there.
- [15:29]
Tim Geddes
I was.
- [15:30]
Roger Porny
Yeah, we were all there. So, Mike, you excited for this?
- [15:34]
Mike
I'm very excited. I've. I've stashed away an extra $60, Tim. Cuz I'm going to boost my character all the way up immediately because I have to be the best on the island stashed away.
- [15:42]
Roger Porny
No, you didn't.
- [15:43]
Tim Geddes
You stashed away.
- [15:45]
Mike
Stash away a little extra 60 because I know I'm putting it on my charact. I'm very excited to see what the island is all about, Roger, because I've been in the 2k community for decades now. I've seen the growth of, you know, the little. It used to be a street to a neighborhood. So I've seen the evolution and I'm very excited to see what they do in WWE. The issue is, is NBA 2K more competitive? WWE 2K not. I don't know, you're supposed to make.
- [16:12]
Tim Geddes
Fun matches, sports entertainment.
- [16:14]
Mike
It's sports entertainment. So I don't know.
- [16:15]
Roger Porny
The servers are like pretty bad in the last game. Like people, all the fans in the comments are like, the server sucks. So like, I'm also interested to see what that looks like of like, you know, is it fun to play online on the island and spending all that money? I don't know.
- [16:26]
Mike
But you ran around the island. Yeah, it looked good.
- [16:29]
Roger Porny
It's a thing.
- [16:30]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, I thought it looks good. Yeah.
- [16:31]
Mike
What do you mean it's a thing? It looked. It looks cooler than the city. I'll tell you what, the city, trust me, the city, city doesn't have fun attractions like the Rey Mysterio fucking Hall of Heroes over there, right? They don't got Roman Reigns, a thousand foot statue. You run around the city. I tell you what, it looks like it was tried to be GTA 3 and it's like, oh, okay, well, it's 2024.
- [16:53]
Tim Geddes
Y'all.
- [16:55]
Roger Porny
Shout out to the island and thank you, Mike. Shout out to thank you, Mike. You look amazing.
- [16:58]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, Mike, I love.
- [16:58]
Roger Porny
So you have other shoes. You shouldn't have wore these shoes.
- [17:01]
Mike
I'm gonna wear my gamer socks today.
- [17:04]
Tim Geddes
You. Did you buy this for the Pokemon thing or is this like.
- [17:06]
Mike
No, this. This is my new outfit for traveling, Tim. Because I noticed as people jump on the airplanes, Tim, a lot of people wear dope sweatsuits. I don't have a dope sweatsuit. You know what I mean? And so I said, what is going to be my airplane? Giddy up, get up. And I decided it's this. And then Tim, as I got on the airplane, I said, well, I'm not wearing this jacket for an hour and a half long flight. So I took the jacket off, ruined the whole thing.
- [17:28]
Tim Geddes
So you did the real life version of what you're complaining about in the island of buying the thing is not even wearing in the ring.
- [17:35]
Roger Porny
Is that The Superman shirt.
- [17:36]
Mike
What's up?
- [17:37]
Roger Porny
Is that the Superman shirt?
- [17:37]
Mike
No, no, I lost that again.
- [17:43]
Tim Geddes
Found it.
- [17:44]
Roger Porny
Put it to the mic. Put it in the mic. Put in the mic.
- [17:47]
Greg Miller
They're not like any mic.
- [18:00]
Tim Geddes
Everybody. That is the RoboCop dance music that Nick wanted us to listen to from Kind of Funny Games Daily.
- [18:07]
Roger Porny
That was. That's a, that's a callback right there. It's a crossover episode.
- [18:10]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, this definitely is a crossover. This is one of those, like MCU homework things where it's just like this episode won't make sense unless you also watch.
- [18:16]
Roger Porny
I think more of like Sweet Life is Zack and Cody. And like that's so Raven. And like that, that type of thing. You can't just jump in the middle.
- [18:22]
Tim Geddes
Right.
- [18:22]
Roger Porny
Or Legends of Tomorrow. Right. When they did the four part whatever.
- [18:25]
Tim Geddes
God, can you believe that? This is just the, the preamble, the little aperitif before we get to Johto.
- [18:32]
Roger Porny
I'm excited.
- [18:33]
Greg Miller
There's an energy.
- [18:34]
Tim Geddes
There is an energy.
- [18:35]
Roger Porny
I'm excited. And people in the chat were like, oh my God, wrestling. But this is just. It's us covering our bases. So we can legally say that this.
- [18:40]
Tim Geddes
Is a video game podcast. We're not going to do.
- [18:43]
Greg Miller
So when Greg Miller comes in on Monday, he's like, did you guys do a video game podcast on Friday? And we can say we did and chat.
- [18:50]
Tim Geddes
You'll back us up. This is video games on this Friday.
- [18:53]
Roger Porny
This is real video games we're talking about.
- [18:55]
Tim Geddes
Are you done talking about video games?
- [18:57]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [18:57]
Tim Geddes
Let's get to the super chats, everybody. Some of them are games related, though, and I appreciate that. All right, Snugs writes in saying, roger, what's in your edc? Just got a new flashlight, got charging cable and a sling bag to organize it all. If you don't know what an EDC is, Roger, it means everyday carry. Oh, did you hear about this?
- [19:17]
Roger Porny
No.
- [19:17]
Tim Geddes
When you hear. I kind of might have spoiled it. Wipe your mind. Pretend you didn't hear what I just said at all. Even though I don't think you're fully listening. So I think we're going to be okay.
- [19:25]
Roger Porny
Anyways, I was focusing on edc.
- [19:26]
Tim Geddes
I thought it was what's an everyday carry. When you hear that, what do you first think?
- [19:31]
Roger Porny
Guns.
- [19:32]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, I love that. Half of us here jump to guns and half of us are like, oh, yeah, it's like what you carry in your bag every day.
- [19:38]
Greg Miller
None of us immediately went like, you know, the electric dance convention. Yeah, Electronic dance convention.
- [19:45]
Roger Porny
Oh, okay.
- [19:46]
Tim Geddes
Electric Daisy Carnival oh, is that what it is? Yeah.
- [19:48]
Greg Miller
Daisy Carnival.
- [19:49]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [19:49]
Greg Miller
That's crazy. I never been to it.
- [19:52]
Tim Geddes
I've never been to a rave. I've. I've.
- [19:54]
Greg Miller
I have plenty of friends who have been to edc.
- [19:56]
Tim Geddes
Me, too. A lot of my friends have went a bazillion times. I've never been to a rave. I really want to, but I think I'm too old now. But that can't be true.
- [20:03]
Roger Porny
Yeah, you can go.
- [20:04]
Tim Geddes
I just want to go.
- [20:05]
Roger Porny
Yeah. There's people.
- [20:06]
Tim Geddes
You're speaking of this. You know, the closest thing to this that I am doing, I've. I've told myself about two years ago, say yes to adventure. Somebody taught me that. I don't know who it was. And so when opportunities come up, I try to think about, like, tim, if you even kind of want to do this, just do it. If it's complicated, make it happen. Like concerts, orchestra, things like, do it. Fucking do it. You're gonna like it. Like, I hate leaving the house.
- [20:29]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [20:29]
Tim Geddes
But I'm going to like it. Right? So I got a Instagram ad recently for the Prodigy. You know, Smack my Up.
- [20:37]
Roger Porny
Ooh.
- [20:38]
Tim Geddes
You know, Fire Starter.
- [20:39]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [20:39]
Tim Geddes
Invaders Must Die.
- [20:40]
Greg Miller
Invaders Must Die.
- [20:42]
Tim Geddes
Dude, you definitely know this music to some extent. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But they make a lot of, like, Fast and Furious one type music. It's like drum and bass and. I'm a fire starter. I'm a fire. You know what I'm talking about.
- [20:55]
Roger Porny
One more time.
- [20:57]
Greg Miller
What was the rhythm action platformer game?
- [21:01]
Roger Porny
What?
- [21:01]
Greg Miller
No, the rhythm action platformer game Chai and.
- [21:06]
Tim Geddes
Oh, hi, Fi Rush.
- [21:07]
Greg Miller
Hi, Fi Rush.
- [21:07]
Tim Geddes
One of their songs is in that.
- [21:11]
Greg Miller
The. The main characters.
- [21:13]
Roger Porny
Oh, sorry. There's an artist named Chai. There's a band named Chai. I got excited. I was like, oh, I didn't get to the Chai level. That's awesome.
- [21:19]
Tim Geddes
They. They did the. Sorry. I got an Instagram ad that they're doing a tour, and they're going to be at the Warfield, which is, like, my favorite venue in San Francisco. And I'm like, there's no fucking world ever that I would think I'm going to go to a Prodigy concert. Yeah, ever. But I got targeted. This ad, I'm like, this looks awesome. And I went and bought tickets. I was, fuck it. Me and she are going to go see Prodigy. She's in on this. She's like, yeah, let's fucking do weird shit.
- [21:43]
Roger Porny
I love that.
- [21:44]
Tim Geddes
So, yeah, I'm very, very excited to see what this is all about. But it's the Closest to like EDM show I've ever been to. It's not edm, but it kind of is.
- [21:51]
Roger Porny
I've never been to a rave. Yeah, no, I thought about it, but then I feel like I got to do drugs and I do want to do drug drugs, but like, you know.
- [21:57]
Tim Geddes
Like, I'm not in the mood. I want to do drugs, but I.
- [21:59]
Roger Porny
Don'T want to do that. Yeah, but like, I'm not in the mood that day.
- [22:01]
Greg Miller
Like, are you in the mood to do those kind of jobs?
- [22:03]
Roger Porny
Yeah, yeah. I mean, it sounds good, but then I'm gonna be sad the next day and like, yeah, I can't just not go to that and not do drugs. You know what I mean?
- [22:11]
Tim Geddes
Like, that's how it's gonna work.
- [22:12]
Greg Miller
Because then, like, if you don't want to do the come down, then you gotta keep doing drugs. Eventually just start throwing up and then you wake up in someone's car.
- [22:20]
Tim Geddes
Exactly.
- [22:22]
Roger Porny
That's how it goes.
- [22:22]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [22:22]
Roger Porny
And I'm gonna end up in a 2008 yard or something. Oh, I've upgr.
- [22:28]
Tim Geddes
We had a conversation about everyday carries and which was edc, which is how we got to this now. But yesterday we're talking about it and we, we kind of came to the conclusion that if Kevin Coelho has been walking around this place with a gun the entire time, I wouldn't be surprised. That's the thing. I don't think all of us so far have been like, yeah, wouldn't be surprised. And he was like, I wouldn't be surprised if he had two guns.
- [22:57]
Roger Porny
One in the sock.
- [23:01]
Tim Geddes
Well. And then, yeah, one for each car. It's like, dude, it's just. No, but every EDC is everyday carry, so it's like, well, like, what do you have in your bag?
- [23:08]
Roger Porny
In your bag.
- [23:09]
Tim Geddes
Okay.
- [23:10]
Roger Porny
Yeah. So should I answer? Yeah, I, I, it depends on what? So I always have chapstick. Always, Always got to have chaps.
- [23:16]
Tim Geddes
So does Bless.
- [23:16]
Roger Porny
Always.
- [23:17]
Tim Geddes
Kevin tried to get blessed to put it on live on air and he wouldn't do it.
- [23:19]
Roger Porny
Yeah, I mean, he would have done it naturally.
- [23:22]
Tim Geddes
Right.
- [23:22]
Roger Porny
But then you put the pressure on it and people are going to zoom in on the lips, you know, make it a thing. It's made a whole thing. Chapstick. I used to carry a lighter and then I stopped carrying a lighter because Kevin would ask for it every day. So I said, I gotta keep this at home.
- [23:36]
Tim Geddes
Kevin has this company in a stranglehold.
- [23:40]
Roger Porny
I was like, I can't. It's gotta be at home. For now. So that lives are at home. The wallet, of course. I have a little like, microfiber cloth that I've cut into a little square for my glasses. Because that's the best way to clean the glasses.
- [23:52]
Tim Geddes
Actually.
- [23:52]
Roger Porny
People have like the ones that you get with the glasses. Case suck. Like just a microfiber cloth works perfectly. Way better. And then let me think what. Oh, and I also carry a Tide stick now because I like.
- [24:03]
Tim Geddes
Very responsible of you.
- [24:04]
Roger Porny
Exactly. And then.
- [24:05]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, I think that's about.
- [24:07]
Roger Porny
Oh, oh, Airtag. Of course. Airtag.
- [24:10]
Tim Geddes
Oh, in your bag. Okay.
- [24:11]
Roger Porny
The bag, of course. And then. And then. Yeah, I think that's about it.
- [24:14]
Tim Geddes
I am such a minimalist when it. I don't like having anything on me. Like. Oh, yeah.
- [24:19]
Roger Porny
Because I have a. I have a bag.
- [24:19]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [24:20]
Roger Porny
So I'm carrying all this.
- [24:21]
Tim Geddes
I never want to have a bag if I don't need to. Anti bag bag agenda. Pokemon goes kind of me up. So I got a little Lululemon, one of those little fanny packs, you know what I'm talking about?
- [24:32]
Roger Porny
Oh, it's not a fanny pack, though.
- [24:33]
Tim Geddes
Well, it is, but you just. You wear it like an. You know what I mean?
- [24:36]
Roger Porny
Okay. Why don't you just get a regular bag at that point? Like a regular. Like, like, like, like.
- [24:41]
Tim Geddes
Not a fanny pack, but it is a fan. They're all fanny packs. They're just. Everyone's trying to rebrand this as something else. You're wearing a fanny pack, Everybody Satchel.
- [24:50]
Greg Miller
Indiana Jones wears one.
- [24:52]
Tim Geddes
And hey, you know, it's a sling bag. Tim says snugs. Hey, look, I get it. I understand what you're saying. It's a fanny pack. Just. It's okay. No, I love my fanny fanny pack.
- [24:59]
Roger Porny
If it has. I love it.
- [25:00]
Greg Miller
Lean into the fanny.
- [25:02]
Tim Geddes
I lean into the fanny all the time. And that's the thing. I'm happy about it when I have to, but I. I try to avoid it. So for me, keep it simple. My phone and my wallet. And my wallet is just one of the little apple wallets that can only hold three cards. Very thin, very tiny.
- [25:16]
Roger Porny
What about cash? When you need cash?
- [25:18]
Tim Geddes
I don't need cash. If I ever need to go somewhere that needs cash, I don't want to be there.
- [25:24]
Roger Porny
Come on, you gotta have a 20.
- [25:26]
Greg Miller
Still only do cash.
- [25:28]
Tim Geddes
Are there?
- [25:29]
Greg Miller
Yeah.
- [25:29]
Tim Geddes
I wouldn't know.
- [25:32]
Roger Porny
I have to get that. Good. My wallet's pretty cool. It's like, it's small. It's not as small as that, of course, but like, it has the thing where you. Where you push it up and then it has it, like, shoots up my cards, like, vertically. Yeah, it's cool. It's cool.
- [25:43]
Tim Geddes
The thing about the cash is when I do need it, I always have cool Greg. I'm not Cool Greg. Give me some of that cash. Venmo. Him. You know what I mean? We good.
- [25:50]
Roger Porny
Easy.
- [25:52]
Tim Geddes
But see, the thing about cash, don't get me started. I'm not gonna go long, I promise you. Because if you don't think I like inflation, wait till you hear me talk about coins. Why do coins even exist? We need to cut this out.
- [26:03]
Roger Porny
Just all of them.
- [26:04]
Tim Geddes
Dude, what the fuck?
- [26:05]
Roger Porny
I get the penny. Like, that was like an old, at this point duty.
- [26:10]
Tim Geddes
At this point. Yeah, we just need all of them. What now? Dude, back in the day, I understood the argument for quarters because how else were you going to be able to put something in a machine and turn the little thing and have a little, like, toy come out? You know what I mean? I understand. But now I'm 35.
- [26:25]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [26:26]
Tim Geddes
So I don't even get your toys online. Yeah, yeah. With a credit card on Amazon.
- [26:31]
Roger Porny
Adults. Yeah, I. I get it and I understand it. I just, I think I. I long for the day, right, to go back. Like one day I'll have kids, right? And then I'll put all my quarters and I'll put it in a fucking little piggy bank. And then we'll go to the, you know, the TD bank and we'll throw it in there and then we'll.
- [26:46]
Tim Geddes
And they're going to look at you, be like, sir, we don't take.
- [26:50]
Roger Porny
We don't have that coin machine.
- [26:51]
Tim Geddes
What?
- [26:52]
Greg Miller
Society is fallen. Society fell 20 years ago. Coins have no value.
- [26:56]
Roger Porny
When I really were in a country anymore was when I went to a baseball game and I brought a lot of cash. Because last time I was at a baseball game, it was only cash, right? You would go, you would get the fucking, you know, peanuts. It was like, here's fucking thing. They're like, no, there's no cash. We literally do not take it. And I was fine with it, but it made me sad. Like when I went to Oracle. Oh, yeah, they don't take cash at all, really. At all.
- [27:19]
Tim Geddes
Period.
- [27:19]
Roger Porny
End of story, no cash. I went to where the Mets are.
- [27:22]
Tim Geddes
I love it. I respect the out of it. Jug Almighty says, why does Tim exist? Who hates on coins? Oh, we got a coin fan out here.
- [27:30]
Roger Porny
You got a lot of coins.
- [27:32]
Tim Geddes
You can hear him coming a mile away, jingling. Jeez, man. Let me tell you about all the.
- [27:38]
Greg Miller
Different states I have on these corners.
- [27:40]
Tim Geddes
Hey, real talk. I was obsessed with that.
- [27:42]
Greg Miller
Everybody was.
- [27:43]
Tim Geddes
When those came out, I was like 8 years old. And my mom, My mom had to get her hip replaced. It was a whole big thing. She had her hip replaced. Then it was a big lawsuit because they actually put motor oil in her and they, they used the wrong type of oil on the, the hip. This is a real story. This is real. My mom's in very bad shape nowadays because of mistakes made back then. Oh, no. But sued, got some money. Not enough money, I'll tell you that. But there was like a month where she had to deal with like hospital surgery stuff. So very, very horrible. But there was an upside. I got to go to my aunt's house and my aunt took me to every single place to find all the quarters.
- [28:21]
Roger Porny
Equivalent exchange.
- [28:24]
Tim Geddes
I don't know, man. I don't know. I don't know. I just think so.
- [28:27]
Roger Porny
That's crazy.
- [28:28]
Tim Geddes
Obviously I'm fucking around, but I had all the quarters. Scarlet Libra says as someone who's never played any Pokemon game is waiting for the switch to what's a good game for me to start with or play in general? Here's the thing, okay.
- [28:41]
Roger Porny
About video games.
- [28:42]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. If you're waiting for the Switch 2 and yes, we're talking Nintendo. Thank you, Barrett. If you're waiting for the Switch 2. So you want a game to play now before then, if that's the question. Because otherwise I'd say maybe just wait for Z. Like what was the question again?
- [28:56]
Roger Porny
I'm so sorry.
- [28:57]
Tim Geddes
Someone who's never played a Pokemon game is waiting for the switch to what's a good game for me to start with or play in general?
- [29:02]
Greg Miller
I assume they only have a switch.
- [29:05]
Tim Geddes
The thing is, it's. It's hard because I. I legitimately do feel like Fire red, leaf green or heart gold, soul silver are the right answer. They're just hard to get these days. Within a year, I think that they will be here because the anniversary for Pokemon next year. I think we'll get them then.
- [29:22]
Greg Miller
Do you think that's a remake or do you think that's Nintendo Switch Online?
- [29:25]
Tim Geddes
I think it's Switch Online or there's been a lot of rumors of like a actual boxed collection. So I can see them doing something like that too. But honestly, I don't know. It's hard. It's like I think we're in a weird place with it right now that I don't know that there's a great entry that's easily Playable on Switch. That I'm like, that's the one to.
- [29:44]
Roger Porny
Start with with Pokemon.
- [29:47]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Just because it's, it's hard to play a lot of the old ones. So you're playing the old ones.
- [29:51]
Roger Porny
I mean, just start with the rc this.
- [29:52]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, but that's the thing is like, that's not indicative of what Pokemon is that.
- [29:56]
Roger Porny
Isn't that what Pokemon is going to be?
- [29:59]
Tim Geddes
No. Kind of. You need to face gym leaders. What about for your first Pokemon?
- [30:05]
Greg Miller
I know people talk about let's go, but I feel like they are Pokey Rogue.
- [30:09]
Tim Geddes
Let's go is not a good first.
- [30:10]
Roger Porny
Someone said Pokey Rogue.
- [30:11]
Tim Geddes
I love let's go, but it's, it's.
- [30:12]
Greg Miller
That's not a good first. Roger.
- [30:14]
Roger Porny
Come on, Rogue. Well, you just get into the gameplay.
- [30:16]
Tim Geddes
No, that's way too much. No, you need to face the gym leaders.
- [30:19]
Roger Porny
So I think this might be an old head situation. I say do whatever you want.
- [30:25]
Tim Geddes
Well.
- [30:27]
Roger Porny
I say play a Yu Gi. Oh, game it.
- [30:29]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [30:30]
Roger Porny
It.
- [30:30]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. I don't have a great answer for you. I'm sorry. But I just think that we're. Nintendo's put us in a very precarious situation with Pokemon. But you know what the best answer is? Watch the Nick Lock later today and.
- [30:40]
Roger Porny
Then you'll know your answers.
- [30:41]
Tim Geddes
Joshua Mitchell says birthday tax. And wondering if you have any guesses for what will Nick's favorite Johto Mon be. Happy birthday Joshua and milk tank Jotoman until it destroys him.
- [30:52]
Greg Miller
Sounds like a digimon.
- [30:54]
Tim Geddes
Yes. You add Mon to anything.
- [30:55]
Greg Miller
Yeah.
- [30:56]
Tim Geddes
God, I hate Nick so much.
- [30:58]
Roger Porny
This is the KFGD ones.
- [30:59]
Tim Geddes
These are still the KFGD ones.
- [31:00]
Roger Porny
Okay, gotcha. Okay.
- [31:01]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, gotcha. Yang Fam says Timidile Andy Quill. Cavarita. Cavarita's awesome.
- [31:10]
Roger Porny
I'm excited to see what Andy cooked up with all this. I've seen some things, but I haven't seen a lot of things.
- [31:15]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [31:15]
Greg Miller
I only know the main character stuff. That's like all I know. And I forgot how much there was in the first one. Like I watched a bit of the super cute shout out to Evan Yan for that three hour one. Like I forgot the Ethan Hunt storyline. I forgot like all of this. God, this is art.
- [31:32]
Tim Geddes
It really is.
- [31:33]
Greg Miller
He's an artist.
- [31:33]
Tim Geddes
Jake and Bake says watching while cooking some eggs. What's the best food related Mario party minigame.
- [31:39]
Roger Porny
I was gonna. I thought he was gonna ask what's the best way to cook eggs Because I have a lot of opinions on that one right Because I think it's the best way to cook some eggs is like the olive oil frying. I love that where you, we put some olive oil, you get really hot and then you, you, yeah, get the edges crispy. You don't flip it.
- [31:53]
Tim Geddes
Just the edges.
- [31:53]
Roger Porny
It's great. Sorry, what's the question?
- [31:55]
Tim Geddes
Was Mario Party Mario Party cooking, minigames, food related, Mario Party pizza one. I gotta be real. I love Mario Party so freaking much, but it is not a franchise that, like, I can really tell you. Oh, man, I loved this board from this one in this game. It's like, not really, like.
- [32:13]
Roger Porny
And I'm not playing. Yeah, I'm not playing Mario Kart Mario Party like that. You know what I mean? Like, I play like maybe once every twice a year. Like, you know, I mean, I have some friends over. I'm not really playing it like that.
- [32:21]
Tim Geddes
So.
- [32:21]
Greg Miller
Yeah, I will shout out though, the Cooking the meat one from Super Mario Party, which I think was the first one, like this game overall, whatever, right? But this game right here of like, using the joy con, flipping the pan.
- [32:34]
Tim Geddes
HD Rumble, dude, you felt that they sizzled out that meat.
- [32:38]
Greg Miller
Sizzle, dude. And like, yeah, I, I, I think this might be my favorite one still.
- [32:42]
Roger Porny
Why is there tissues?
- [32:43]
Greg Miller
You know, don't ask.
- [32:45]
Roger Porny
Disgusting.
- [32:48]
Tim Geddes
Parot writes insane. H birthday. Tax time. Also, wish me luck for my job interview today. I could use good vibes from y'all in the chat. Thanks for keeping me entertained. Happy birthday, dude. Hope you are doing well. Very, very good luck. I met this man in Philadelphia many years ago. Oh, yeah.
- [33:03]
Roger Porny
That's awesome.
- [33:03]
Tim Geddes
In the most ridiculous turn of events of all time. He was Gia's roommate's cousin, I want to say. And I went to go visit her when they were, when she was in grad school and he was visiting her at the same time.
- [33:17]
Roger Porny
I love that.
- [33:18]
Tim Geddes
Cousins, friends, I'm not sure I love.
- [33:19]
Roger Porny
When that all happens. My mom would tell me a weird one where her boyfriend's, I think her boyfriend's daughter's friend. They were all like, hanging out together, my mom and all them. And then she was talking. My mom was talking about me. And then the guy looks at the friend, looks at my mom and says, roger from Kinda Funny. And then she was like, yeah, he works at Kinda Funny. She's like, oh, I listen to Kinda Funny. Like, it was just such a weird one where it was like, oh, my gosh, like, how the fuck did that happen?
- [33:45]
Greg Miller
That, that happened with my dad as well at a restaurant he used to work at, I think back it must have been 2019 because it was before the pandemic. And a kid he worked with, like, knew who we were, which was very crazy.
- [33:58]
Tim Geddes
So cool. Apex Dragon, which says early birthday tax. Since my birthday's tomorrow. Thank you all so much for keeping me entertained for the last five years. Happy birthday tomorrow. We appreciate you. A lot of birthdays in the air. Nine months ago, a lot of people were.
- [34:12]
Greg Miller
You know who else's birthday it is?
- [34:14]
Tim Geddes
Lulu's.
- [34:15]
Greg Miller
She is five years old today.
- [34:18]
Tim Geddes
That's.
- [34:19]
Mike
Wow.
- [34:20]
Greg Miller
I know.
- [34:21]
Tim Geddes
Oh.
- [34:21]
Roger Porny
Happy birthday was nine months ago. That was June 7, 2024. June's crazy.
- [34:29]
Tim Geddes
June be crazy, man.
- [34:30]
Roger Porny
Be crazy, bro.
- [34:33]
Tim Geddes
Kessel wink. Says Tim in celebration of the Nick Lock. Which gym leader are you terrified of? Nick trying. Whitney's milk tank is goaded for filling graveyards. We were talking about that.
- [34:41]
Roger Porny
Excited?
- [34:42]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Don't spoil it for him, though. We just need to let it happen.
- [34:45]
Roger Porny
Like milk.
- [34:45]
Tim Geddes
We just need to let it happen.
- [34:47]
Roger Porny
Oil, milk.
- [34:49]
Tim Geddes
Alex J. Sandoval says. Breaking news. Zach Krager's Resident Evil movie was just tentatively set for September 2026. My question is Resident Evil in year. Resident Evil is one of the remaining major franchises that we haven't done that, like, as a film. Like, our movies that performed like that got a lot of numbers, you know what I mean? Because, like, we've checked off hundreds.
- [35:16]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [35:16]
Tim Geddes
Off the list. Like, dozens of franchises at the very least. And I don't know that we'll ever get to Resident Evil. And there's a lot of them because I'm pretty sure there's six in the Wes Anderson saga. And then there's. Welcome to Raccoon City, the West Anderson.
- [35:30]
Greg Miller
Wes Anderson did not.
- [35:31]
Tim Geddes
Paul Thomas Anderson. Paul Thomas Anderson, yo. I.
- [35:39]
Greg Miller
With the Wes Anderson Resident Evil movie, though.
- [35:43]
Roger Porny
Bill Murray is a zombie, but he just wants love. That's incredible. I've always wanted to watch the Resident Evil movies.
- [35:53]
Tim Geddes
You haven't seen them?
- [35:54]
Roger Porny
No, I've seen clips on, like, sci fi. You know what I mean? Like, I would just be like that, but I would never watch. I've seen, like. Yeah, the clip in the ending of the first one, I think it was, you know, that one. The dodging lasers and stuff.
- [36:03]
Tim Geddes
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know the clip in the beginning of the first one, that movie had unnecessarily nudity, and it was like.
- [36:10]
Roger Porny
Like.
- [36:11]
Tim Geddes
Well, I mean, yes, I'm a fan of nudity in general, but it just. The movie started off in a way. It was like, why is she naked right now? And then it was like, how's this Resident Evil movie? And then the laser scene happened and it was like traumatizing but very cool. Yeah, I gave up after two, though. But not because I wanted to. Just life got in the way.
- [36:32]
Roger Porny
Yeah, things happen. Things happen when you're. You're really into art, you know what I mean? Sometimes just life gets in the way.
- [36:37]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Rich Smitty says there's nothing worth seeing in any of those films. Well, everyone, we're gonna get to. Those are the Super Chats from Games Daily. Now we're going to get to the Super Chats from this show after a word from our sponsors.

- [38:51]
Tim Geddes
See full terms@mintmobile.com so I said that Wes Anderson directed the Resident Evil movies. I was wrong. And I corrected myself saying Paul Thomas Anderson.
- [39:01]
Roger Porny
Brave of you.
- [39:02]
Tim Geddes
I was wrong there too. It was Paul W.S. anderson. It's a different man. Yeah, very different man.
- [39:08]
Roger Porny
Yeah, it's like, what was it when Bill Murray got a call because he, a Cohen brother, was like, hey, I'm making a Garfield movie. It was just another guy named Cohen. He thought it was the guys that.
- [39:19]
Tim Geddes
Made Fargo so good. All right, let's get to these super chats. Here we have Willie Maddox saying, sending love from Adelaide, Australia.
- [39:27]
Roger Porny
O be safe. I believe Australia is going through some like hurricanes, I believe or something like that. So yeah, hopefully everything's okay.
- [39:34]
Tim Geddes
Be safe out there. Dexter says, would you ever do a games cast where you listen to video game pitches? I have a daredevil idea that needs to be heard also. What's your go to video game soundtrack? Love you guys. I love that. We should 1000% do that.
- [39:47]
Roger Porny
We should do 60 second pitches. I love this idea. That's a great episode.
- [39:50]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, we should definitely do that Go to video game soundtrack. God, there's way, way, way too.
- [39:55]
Roger Porny
Yeah, you're the guy to.
- [39:56]
Tim Geddes
Too many to count, man.
- [39:57]
Greg Miller
Persona 3 for me, that's my like go to. I'm just walking around either doing chores or like commuting or something. That's a good easy one to put on in the background.
- [40:06]
Roger Porny
I got two unironically and they're both. They sound like memes. They're not. The Minecraft soundtrack. Incredible. It's incredible. Just ambient music and then Ape Escape. Ape Escape music goes fucking hard. It's like. It's drumming, drum and bass. It's incredible.
- [40:20]
Tim Geddes
Speaking of the neon white too, of course, the drum and bass. Ape Escape. There was. There was an era. It was the PS1 era, kind of early PS2, but then they kind of gave up on it. Where a lot of the like Japanese developed games had that kind of like drum and bass, like very, very like retro wave like sound to it. And there's a lot of YouTube channels that just full on lean into it and will make full like visualizations that.
- [40:46]
Roger Porny
I watch that every day.
- [40:47]
Tim Geddes
They're amazing. They're so amazing.
- [40:49]
Roger Porny
So funny. Yeah, I watch those every day.
- [40:50]
Tim Geddes
They're so cool. It's just like old PS1 footage mixed with like just, you know.
- [40:55]
Roger Porny
Yeah. Windows Vista and shit. Yeah, that's cool. Shit. I love it.
- [40:57]
Tim Geddes
Hell yeah, I love that.
- [40:59]
E
Not.
- [40:59]
Tim Geddes
Not Eurobeat. It's more like. It's drum and bass. It's drum and bass, but with a very 90s tech aesthetic to it.
- [41:06]
Roger Porny
Where I go the brightest. Says I'm going to check it out. The Minecraft soundtrack. Yeah, absolutely. Listen to it. It's great. It's incredible.
- [41:11]
Tim Geddes
Jungle dnb. That. That's what it is. Yeah. All that juice says this is a. It's video game remix album, but it's also kind of by a lot of iconic video game composers like Lena Rain from Celeste and. And some others. It's called Giants from Brave Wave Productions. I randomly came across this a couple weeks ago and it's a lot of songs and like covers of songs from Mega man and Shovel Knight and Ninja Gaiden and Panzer Dragoon and things like that. But it's cool because it's kind of like a concept album to an extent. There's no lyrics or anything. So it is, you know, just more like sounds. But it. I've been listening to it a lot. It's very video gamey. It's like they. They tried to like make music but still stay true to it being like eight bit sounding. But it's epic. Very cool stuff. And like, I just love the artwork too. Yeah.
- [42:05]
Roger Porny
Nice.
- [42:06]
Tim Geddes
Check it out. Giants, Giants, Giants. CJ splits on Said. What musician would you want to score a game? For me, it would be MBDTF era. Yay. Slash. Mike Dean.
- [42:19]
Roger Porny
Don't get me excited like that. That. I mean, I think I'm gonna get mine. Caroline Policheck. God, I think I'm getting it this Sunday. I think we're gonna get that trailer.
- [42:26]
Tim Geddes
That's so funny.
- [42:27]
Roger Porny
Yeah, I think it's gonna happen.
- [42:29]
Tim Geddes
God, it's. It's really interesting to me because I. I feel like I like video game music more than I like normal music. Wow. You know, so it's like. I feel like it's almost like the opposite. Where I'd want to see, you know, musicians Shimamura make a. Oh, like a straight up.
- [42:47]
Greg Miller
I don't know about that.
- [42:48]
Roger Porny
I love that.
- [42:51]
Tim Geddes
I mean, Joe Morris is Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Game would be epic.
- [42:55]
Greg Miller
I mean, they're doing.
- [42:56]
Tim Geddes
Oh my God.
- [42:57]
Roger Porny
That's actually happening. Right. That's so cool.
- [42:59]
Tim Geddes
God, that's insane, dude. Insane.
- [43:02]
Roger Porny
So cool.
- [43:02]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Don't have a great answer here, unfortunately.
- [43:05]
Roger Porny
So, like Magdalena Bay. I think they would do an incredible job.
- [43:08]
Greg Miller
Yeah. All the artists I listen to are just artists that, like, if Tony Hawk's first kid of three, plus four weren't fucking cowards, these artists would be on those soundtracks, you know?
- [43:18]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [43:21]
Roger Porny
A lot of ones. We got a lot of super chats.
- [43:23]
Tim Geddes
We do. Yeah. Voltaster says, replayed Tilu 2. It's a masterpiece. Right. Why the revisionist history? People hate Druckman. Even if you dislike story objectively, it's still an amazing story. In what world is intergalactic not 100amazing? Naughty Dog don't do mediocre. I don't think it's revisionist. I feel like even at the time there was a lot of people that didn't like the story for a variety of reasons. But, I mean, I stand with you on this. So, like, you're not alone. Voltage.
- [43:47]
Roger Porny
Yeah, that's one of those games that, like, I played. I liked it. And then as I've like, gotten past it, I just think less and less of it. Like, I don't know if that's an indignation of, like, me not liking it or just the pandemic or anything. I don't know. But I also don't want to replay that game because it was just so sad and just awful for me. So I'm like, I don't know. I don't know.
- [44:02]
Tim Geddes
I like being sad sometimes.
- [44:03]
Roger Porny
I. I never.
- [44:04]
Greg Miller
Some people can just have different opinions on things and it's okay.
- [44:07]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, but I'm with you too, that in what world's intergalactic not 100amazing. Yeah, I mean, 100amazing. Obviously nothing is, but I do think that it's going to be killer. Riley 21 says anyone in the office play Shadow of the Colossus. Still one of my favorite games of all time. So much so I have the vital spot tattooed on my left cap. That's. That's very cool. I love Shadow of the Colossus. It's one of Bless's favorite games of all time. Really? He's never talked about it. A lot of love for Shadow, I would say here, but. Yeah, if you haven't played that game, it's. It's so. Have you played it?
- [44:38]
Roger Porny
Yeah, I played it. I think I was. I don't know. I liked it a lot, but I've played so many games that were like it beforehand and I just.
- [44:45]
Tim Geddes
I don't know.
- [44:45]
Roger Porny
I just didn't like, if I was younger and I played that and that was, like, my first, like, game. Like, it. I think it would just, like, destroy me. But, yeah, it didn't fully. I don't know.
- [44:52]
Greg Miller
That remake, like, the remake was the first time I actually played it, and that was such a cool experience for me.
- [44:59]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Tundra Boy says, just the controls bother me. Have you tried playing the. The remake? Because it's way better. Like, it fixes most of my issues with the controls. Like, it's still cumbersome. Too weird.
- [45:08]
Greg Miller
But that's because, like, that's kind of the point, though. Yeah.
- [45:13]
Tim Geddes
Gondor's Condor said, sending this for Nick's future milk tank medical bill.
- [45:16]
Roger Porny
Oh.
- [45:17]
Tim Geddes
Yep. Jessica Hinkle says, tim, be sure to tell Roger that Greg's never seen Chappie movie.
- [45:24]
Roger Porny
Chappie.
- [45:25]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [45:27]
Roger Porny
Okay.
- [45:27]
Tim Geddes
Okay. So maybe you didn't know about all this. So Greg and I just did our full split fiction playthrough, which you can watch now. The entire game in one, one video. Very cool. And there was a big reveal during that, that Greg's never seen Chappie, which blew my mind, because for the last 10 years on podcast, any chance Greg gets, whether it's relevant or not, you'd go, I am Chappie. I'm Chappie. And do his impression. And that's not how Chappy sounds at all. And, yeah, just all of a sudden, everything made so much more sense.
- [46:00]
Roger Porny
That's incredible.
- [46:02]
Tim Geddes
Jim Miranda says, I've put about 10 hours into monster Hunter, and it just hasn't clicked with me. Not sure if it will. Have you guys ever powered through a game you initially didn't like and ended up loving it?
- [46:12]
Roger Porny
Oh, dude. Oh, God. I wish I had things off the top of my head. I'm trying to think really hard.
- [46:17]
Tim Geddes
I mean, this is not really.
- [46:19]
Roger Porny
Oh, I got one. Really?
- [46:20]
Tim Geddes
Go for it.
- [46:20]
Roger Porny
Hollow Knight. Hollow Knight was one where it was just like, I would play it. I'll play the first four hours. I'm like, this is good. It's not like, I don't know. It's just not grabbing me. And I just. I was like, no, we're doing the top hundred games of all time. I know. This is one of those games I love. I love Animal so much, and I love. I want the idea of Metroidvanias on this list more. Let me try it. And I pushed through, and after the seventh hour, I was like, oh, I get this now. Like, that fully clicked for me.
- [46:43]
Tim Geddes
I think I'm still there with it. Yeah. And I'm sure one day, because I got. I love that you would love it so much. I love the artist, man. Not a perfect answer to this question, But Kingdom Hearts 2 is definitely one for me because I really disliked the beginning of that game.
- [46:58]
Roger Porny
Yeah.
- [46:59]
Tim Geddes
And it lasts very long. Once you get past it, though, then I'm, oh, this is what I like for Kingdom Hearts. Yeah. Otherwise, like Howard, through a game initially didn't like. I give up. I'm a. I'm a quitter.
- [47:14]
Roger Porny
Oh, yeah. I give up all the time.
- [47:15]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. So I'm sure there's probably.
- [47:16]
Roger Porny
My issue is that I give up right before the end of the game. Final fantasy 16. I have, like, four hours left. I just never finished it.
- [47:22]
Tim Geddes
Those final four hours are insane.
- [47:24]
Roger Porny
I just never finished it. I don't know what the was happening.
- [47:26]
Tim Geddes
So funny.
- [47:27]
Roger Porny
I was in, like, a desert place. Maybe it's not that. Maybe I have more.
- [47:29]
Tim Geddes
Oh, yes.
- [47:29]
Greg Miller
I have a similar. Like, I never got through the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. I got to San Francisco, San Fransokyo, and then quit.
- [47:36]
Roger Porny
It's done.
- [47:37]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. Han Cholo says Hans Zimmer would be so good. Hans Zimmer did Dragon Age fail. Guard.
- [47:43]
Roger Porny
Oh, woke.
- [47:45]
Tim Geddes
Oh, ain't that right, bro? Riley21 says, can we also get DJ Snowbike in the future? I'd love to hear Mike, like, do a DJ set.
- [47:56]
Roger Porny
I would love it so much because, like, the lead up to it would be awesome. Right? Because it would be him looking around to everybody calling in his friends from other states, telling them to fly themselves over so that they could set it up for him and teach him how to press.
- [48:08]
Greg Miller
And then he doesn't do it at all.
- [48:09]
Roger Porny
And then he'll just press the button. Yeah, just fist bump.
- [48:12]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, it'd be awesome.
- [48:13]
Roger Porny
It'd be a lot of work for all of us. But it would be a good product.
- [48:15]
Tim Geddes
A good product. Be a product. Tender Boy says you guys should rank the console startups, PS1, the goat, PS2.
- [48:24]
Roger Porny
But also PS2, F tier. Because the scary sound you would make when you put in the bad disc. Yeah, and I had a lot of bad discs. I had a lot of scary discs. I would scratch all those discs because it was not good.
- [48:34]
Greg Miller
See, I prefer that because it was like. It was. It still felt like, in theme and, like, futuristic and weird and shit. Whereas, like, if you accidentally unplug your PS5 when it's on rest mode and then you come and bag, it just goes fucking stupid.
- [48:50]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, I really, really appreciate your love of the PS2. Oh, I love intro it. It. It's your background on your computer. Yeah, I respect a lot of respect for that. Like, it's. The PS1 will always be the best because of just what it is. Yeah, but I mean, you shout to PS2, like real good stuff.
- [49:07]
Greg Miller
CJ splits on, shouts out GameCube.
- [49:10]
Roger Porny
I mean, I love Game Boy advance too.
- [49:12]
Tim Geddes
GameCube though, when you hold the Z button. Not my fave. Have you heard this?
- [49:16]
Greg Miller
No.
- [49:17]
Tim Geddes
Okay, go on YouTube.
- [49:21]
Greg Miller
GameCube Z button.
- [49:23]
Tim Geddes
If you. The Z button is just R1.
- [49:26]
Roger Porny
Okay.
- [49:26]
Tim Geddes
They didn't have an L1 on the GameCube controller.
- [49:28]
Roger Porny
Yeah, yeah.
- [49:29]
Tim Geddes
But if you hold that, the. The Z button, it gives you an alt sound and I don't think you guys are gonna like it. Okay. Nitrogen mustard says. Oh my God. They're so young, Tim. I know this is pretty crazy.
- [49:40]
Roger Porny
I'm so scared. I'm so scared. A little louder. Oh, there it is.
- [49:49]
Tim Geddes
Normal.
- [49:53]
Roger Porny
No, that's.
- [49:54]
Tim Geddes
If no disc is there.
- [49:55]
Greg Miller
Oh. Huh.
- [49:57]
Roger Porny
I don't like that either. That scares me. Those are scary sounds for me as a child because I was. I would have my gaming.
- [50:07]
Tim Geddes
That's.
- [50:07]
Greg Miller
Oh, I remember the kid laugh.
- [50:10]
Roger Porny
Yeah, that's like a kid version.
- [50:13]
Tim Geddes
It's just if you hold the Z button.
- [50:16]
Roger Porny
One design designer on that team was like, no, this is my vision. This is my.
- [50:22]
Greg Miller
This is a real thing. This isn't like a.
- [50:23]
Tim Geddes
This is real. This is real.
- [50:26]
Greg Miller
It's funny too because like the. This sound sounds so like rare. Like banjo DK coded.
- [50:34]
Tim Geddes
Right.
- [50:35]
Greg Miller
Like it. That brought me to like the toy factory in Donkey Kong 64. Yeah, the kid laugh. What are we doing?
- [50:41]
Roger Porny
We gotta talk about one day about how video game consoles have just like slowly lost vibes. Like Lanza brought this up to me of like how like the two, like the DS and all, like the. The Game Boy, like all these games, like they had like their little like menu music. Like I listen to all these menu musics all the time. Like it's so nice. And then we just have. We have the PlayStation 1, I guess. But like, it just keeps on degrading. The Switch one. The Switch one has. Switch has no vibes.
- [51:00]
Tim Geddes
No vibes.
- [51:01]
Roger Porny
No.
- [51:02]
Greg Miller
No aura.
- [51:02]
Roger Porny
No aura.
- [51:03]
Tim Geddes
It does. It's just not the same. Like you go to the E Shop and it has like, it. It's more like the sound effects of the. The Switch does have really good sound design for moving around the menu. Like the left to right sounds a little music.
- [51:16]
Roger Porny
I want yeah, yeah. When I go to the picture thing, I want a specific orchestra that they designed for the pictures.
- [51:22]
Tim Geddes
Right?
- [51:22]
Roger Porny
Like, I want something weird. Get fun with it. I Hope the Switch 2 has that. I guarantee you will not.
- [51:26]
Tim Geddes
No, I. Yeah, there'll be no vibes like that. That's my thing too, is like, Look, I. I get the argument being made. I am firmly on the other side of like, don't be fucking weird. Just have good shit that works. Okay? What do you mean, don't be weird? Don't be weird. Nintendo, you found success with the Switch.
- [51:42]
Roger Porny
But that's like that.
- [51:43]
Greg Miller
Let's get weird. No, let's get weird.
- [51:45]
Roger Porny
What do you mean? It's not like, intrusive to like. Because it's just weird music.
- [51:50]
Tim Geddes
It's a parasite. It's the parasite that then gets everywhere. And then, guess what's next, Roger? Everything has motion controls. You can't have one without the other. I wish it was different. I wish the world was different, everybody. But if you have fun, cute music, next thing you know, you're not getting a Metroid. And if you do get a Metroid, it's Federation force.
- [52:10]
Roger Porny
But the GameCube had music and stuff.
- [52:13]
Tim Geddes
I hit my knee no less than four times there. Yeah, I do that a lot. I know, man. It's ringing. I'm feeling a little ringing. Kinetic says, hey, Tim, just got a PS5 Pro. And I heard Final Fantasy looks great on it. But I've never played any Final Fantasy games, like, ever. Where do I start?
- [52:31]
Roger Porny
15 femboys.
- [52:33]
Tim Geddes
I would not stop 15.
- [52:35]
Greg Miller
I mean, I get what Roger's saying, though.
- [52:37]
Tim Geddes
I mean, shout out to 15. For sure.
- [52:39]
Roger Porny
I started.
- [52:40]
Tim Geddes
These days, I. I think Final Fantasy 7 Remake's probably the right answer because that is a ongoing story that if you get hooked into, you're gonna have a new one coming out soon.
- [52:51]
Roger Porny
What about 16?
- [52:52]
Tim Geddes
I. I mean, I think 16 is just not indicative of Final Fantasy.
- [52:57]
Roger Porny
But that might be like a good, like, entry point of just like, here's something that's not overall what Final Fantasy usually usually is, but you get. You get the chocobos.
- [53:04]
Tim Geddes
I mean, if you like Devil May Cry style games, then yes, 16. I just don't think, like, for your first Final Fantasy, it's like, I, I don't. If you play that, you're gonna be really upset when you play another one.
- [53:14]
Roger Porny
I don't think I'd be upset. I think I'd be like, okay, it's an interesting, like, this is an interesting thing. Let's see, what, what else is going on.
- [53:19]
Tim Geddes
It's just so not rpg.
- [53:22]
Roger Porny
Yeah, that's true.
- [53:23]
Tim Geddes
You know, I mean, hey, I'm saying this is like the biggest fan I know of Final Fantasy 16.
- [53:28]
Roger Porny
If you play Final Fantasy 16, let me know what happens at the ending. Last like 10 hours. I don't know.
- [53:32]
Greg Miller
Get into Rogers DMS. He has no other way to find.
- [53:37]
Roger Porny
Booted the thing up. And I'd be like, ah. I don't know why I'm in this desert. I forgot I have a brother. I don't have a brother. I don't know what's happening.
- [53:42]
Tim Geddes
You can just even watch a video of just the last like two hours of it, man. It's so sick.
- [53:46]
Greg Miller
Oh, you know, Tim, I gotta find like a good walk through that is like a good like 10, 80, 60 bit.
- [53:51]
Roger Porny
And now he's in Tekken. Now I don't know what the happening. When did that happen? Right?
- [53:54]
Tim Geddes
You're right.
- [53:55]
Roger Porny
You're right.
- [53:56]
Tim Geddes
Canon KDG says in Sonic Adventure 2, did you have to keep beating up a child to unlock Dark Chow Guardian or was I psychotic child who believed a playground rumor.
- [54:05]
Roger Porny
Yeah, you do beat up. Yeah. And then you get Dark Chow.
- [54:07]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [54:07]
Roger Porny
Lienza does that all the time. It's really upsetting. Every time she plays Sonic Adventure 2, it is really, really scary because she just immediately goes to the Chows and she just starts throwing them. Throwing them. And she's like, yeah, yeah. Why are you doing this? What is wrong with you?
- [54:21]
Tim Geddes
Horrible is what it is.
- [54:23]
Greg Miller
I need to hang out with Leanne some more. She sounds.
- [54:25]
Tim Geddes
I love her, man. She's so freaking great.
- [54:26]
Roger Porny
So cool.
- [54:28]
Tim Geddes
AP says, dance for us, Mikey.
- [54:30]
Roger Porny
Oh, he did, he did. You might hear a loud thumping in the next 10 minutes of him just, oh, oh, he's gonna come in and dance.
- [54:37]
Tim Geddes
So Jackie M says I hate PSSR flicker in some games and would take a lower FPS slash resolution, slash ray tracing. And had to switch to base this PS5 for this game. I don't know what game exactly you're talking about. Maybe you're talking about Monster Hunter. Because I've seen a lot of people talking about that stuff. Please.
- [54:53]
Greg Miller
Thank you.
- [54:53]
Tim Geddes
Pisser. Sorry. Sorry. Forgot what day it is. Yeah, like, it's just game modes, man. I'm gonna say it and stand by it. I. I blame PC gaming.
- [55:08]
Roger Porny
Elaborate.
- [55:09]
Tim Geddes
I'd prefer not to.
- [55:11]
Roger Porny
I respect.
- [55:12]
Tim Geddes
But I will, I will.
- [55:13]
Roger Porny
No, don't.
- [55:14]
Tim Geddes
You're right.
- [55:14]
Greg Miller
He'll respect you less.
- [55:15]
Tim Geddes
John Van Pelt says, summer happened so fast. It looks like he's singing Lyrics to a song. Summer happens so fast. Because he spelled fast. F A H A S T Do dink. Com Inc. In the chat says people like you should lose their jobs.
- [55:34]
Roger Porny
Oh, me Fair.
- [55:35]
Tim Geddes
No, he must be talking about me. You know what I mean? Because I'm out here.
- [55:38]
Roger Porny
I think I might have. Yeah, those person calls a shills too. I mean, he's right.
- [55:41]
Tim Geddes
Dropping. Dropping some. Yeah. What am I chilling for here?
- [55:44]
Roger Porny
We're chilling for anti. Anti PC. Wait.
- [55:47]
Greg Miller
And we're chilling for the Pisser.
- [55:49]
Tim Geddes
It's just more just like it's the reason.
- [55:51]
Roger Porny
Yeah, we're chilling for the pisser.
- [55:52]
Greg Miller
Just chilling for beating up chows.
- [55:56]
Tim Geddes
What did you just say?
- [55:58]
Roger Porny
Beating up chows.
- [55:59]
Tim Geddes
Beating up chows. I think you said big nut Chows. Holy.
- [56:04]
Greg Miller
It's Freaky Friday, but we're not getting that.
- [56:05]
Tim Geddes
Freaky Lewis says, did your parents ever buy you a violent video game in which they questioned when you were young? Blood Rain for me. Which very violent. But I loved it.
- [56:18]
Roger Porny
Oh, my aunt Randy had Blood Rain and she showed that to me way too young. But I loved it. I loved Blood Rain. Blood Rain ruled.
- [56:23]
Greg Miller
I don't.
- [56:24]
Roger Porny
My parents never questioned it. They would always actively buy it because it was. They probably shouldn't have been. But they encouraged it. They were found.
- [56:31]
Greg Miller
My stepdad was really into games. So like, I didn't have like the ignorant parents who didn't really know what like was on the up and up. So yeah, my mom like put the hammer down real quick on like what was cool in our house and not. But I do remember playing Mortal Kombat with my aunt, but it was the Super Nintendo version, so it wasn't like blood and shit like that. But yeah.
- [56:53]
Roger Porny
Shout out to Tyler Ekenberg in the chat. Says play played Blood Rain for the first time recently. That game is dog.
- [56:59]
Tim Geddes
That's the problem with video games, man. That's awesome. Yeah, I. My mom was actually like pretty sensitive to violence and like weapons and stuff. It never really affected my gaming that much though. But like she wouldn't even like let us watch Ninja Turtles and like it was like a big problem because they had weapons and it was like, you know, promoting violence. Did she. But thank God I stayed at Kevin's house a lot, you know what I mean? So like that was it.
- [57:24]
Greg Miller
She chilled more, chill out more when like Cool Gray came around or was cool.
- [57:30]
Tim Geddes
Greg's only two years younger.
- [57:31]
Greg Miller
Oh yeah.
- [57:31]
Tim Geddes
So like we were like.
- [57:33]
Greg Miller
My sister and I are 11 years apart. So like, yeah, my mom like really fudgeing. Started tuning out to that shit. When I came home one day in high school and had noticed that on our Netflix account recently watched was Happy Tree Friends. And I looked at my mom, I was like, are you letting. And my sister must be like six.
- [57:52]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [57:53]
Greg Miller
At the time. And I'm like, are you letting Alana watch Happy Tree Friends? And she's like, yeah, why? And I was like, oh, have you watched past a minute of that with her around? She's like, no. And I showed her and she was horrified.
- [58:06]
Tim Geddes
That is so freaking.
- [58:07]
Greg Miller
But it also explains very much why my sister is the way she is today.
- [58:11]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [58:11]
Roger Porny
My dad would always do the same bit every time we go to GameStop. Because they would force, like if a kid. If a parent was buying a rated M game for a kid, they would read out like the ESRB blurb, like completely. So then like, I would get GTA 4 and they would be like, it has sexual nudity. It has. It has guns, Whatever you say. All that. My dad says. And I. I wouldn't have that in any other way.
- [58:30]
Tim Geddes
Awesome. Yeah.
- [58:31]
Roger Porny
You just look at the guys. I wouldn't have it any other way.
- [58:32]
Tim Geddes
That's amazing.
- [58:33]
Roger Porny
Okay. Every time you would do that same bit, it was a good bit.
- [58:36]
Tim Geddes
Yeah. My mom, like, she was so sensitive in the early days. She, like, pretty quickly was just like, all right, Tim's responsible, this is gonna be fine. But like, she'd get so mad when I would be playing Mario and then I would say, I died. Oh, she didn't like that. I was saying I died. Really didn't like that. I was like, like, I have three more lives. Didn't like that. But the example of this though is we went to Kevin's cousin's uncle's house and he had Resident Evil. It must have been the director's cut because I don't think the original Resident Evil had this, but it's. It was Resident Evil 1 and it started with a live action cutscene.
- [59:09]
Greg Miller
Oh, yeah.
- [59:10]
Tim Geddes
So I think it was the director's cut.
- [59:12]
Greg Miller
Yeah.
- [59:12]
Tim Geddes
And it was like God awful acting and stuff. Dogs attacking the force and stuff. Zombie dogs. Me, Kevin and my brother were terrified. They destroyed us. Like the rest of that weekend. We're just like, oh, no, we're changed people now. We saw something we should not have seen.
- [59:27]
Roger Porny
We shouldn't have seen that.
- [59:28]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [59:30]
Greg Miller
I had to get a play a copy of that because IGN was doing some feature on Resident Evil or something and I had to play through the entirety of Resident Evil 1 with full tank controls to get to the ending live. Action cutscene of the director's cut.
- [59:46]
Tim Geddes
So the chat saying the dog had that too.
- [59:49]
Greg Miller
Interesting, huh?
- [59:52]
Tim Geddes
Biohazard Yangfam says. Tim, one of my favorite final fantasies is Final Fantasy 10. How would you remake slash remaster the game if you could? God, man. I mean, 10 is my first and because of that will always probably be like my favorite. You know, I would take any type of remake of that. Honestly. Like I don't think that they need to. Final Fantasy 7 it of like changing the story and adding a bunch of other stuff. Like the 10 story is so good and powerful. It's about love, man. Love transcends time. So freaking good. But also I think the core game's good. I don't. I don't know that it needs a remake, but I'd lose my mind for it on Vita. Not a great version of it. It's on everything now on Vito.
- [60:36]
Roger Porny
Played on Vito.
- [60:37]
Tim Geddes
Stop that. Jay Baseball says paying my wedding tax. Got married a couple weeks ago and got to pick the music during the ceremony. Had orchestral versions of songs from Final Fantasy, Baldur's Gate, Tokyo Ghoul and Avatar.
- [60:47]
Roger Porny
Hell yeah.
- [60:48]
Tim Geddes
Hell yeah. I absolutely freaking love that.
- [60:50]
Roger Porny
I like that we have weddings.
- [60:51]
Tim Geddes
Congrats on your wedding.
- [60:52]
Roger Porny
Yeah. Wedding taxes. We have birthday taxes.
- [60:54]
Tim Geddes
Taxes for it all.
- [60:55]
Roger Porny
Dude, congratulations. That's incredible. That's really awesome.
- [60:58]
Tim Geddes
Very, very, very.
- [60:59]
Roger Porny
I love when people really get creative with their wedding and being able to. To do awesome cool things. Things like that.
- [61:03]
Tim Geddes
Very cool. Gene Sandoval says thoughts on the Tony hawks Pro Skater 4 career change party on. Dudes, if you want to hear that, you're gonna have to listen to the two parter of this episode. Go to the kind of funny games daily that me and Raj did.
- [61:14]
Roger Porny
Yeah, a lot of this doesn't make any sense because we, we set it all up in KFGD and it all pays off here. So you have to go back.
- [61:20]
Tim Geddes
Go back and watch that. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry you had to get so much of this today. This being me and Roger. Wow, these super chats just keep on going.
- [61:31]
Roger Porny
It's okay.
- [61:31]
Tim Geddes
Yeah, I want to get them though. Hooded Robin says, hey Tim, I'm finally actually collecting them all. Which switch Pokemon game should I start with? From what I know, they all have their own merits. So wait, so you're saying you're actually trying to catch them all? If that's the case, I would start.
- [61:46]
Roger Porny
No, I think that they're just saying that as like a term. Right? Like. Yeah, I'm just catching. Yeah, like the thing like, I gotta catch them all.
- [61:52]
Tim Geddes
Right, well, because like, I, I. Scarlet and Violet kind of turned me of like that I'm going to catch them all.
- [61:56]
Roger Porny
Okay.
- [61:57]
Tim Geddes
Like, that was the turning point for me. I beat all the games, but it was a long time since I completed the decks. Like Gen 2 probably was the last time I did that back in the day. But because of Scarlet Violet, I am now on this eternal quest. I would say Scarlet Violet's the best place to start. Because of the dlc. Because the, the DLC allows you to catch so many of the mythicals and legendaries. So if you're trying to catch them all, I think that on the switch, that's the best place to start. Manic Pixel says, anyone playing Rogue Prince of Persia, this may be my game of the year.
- [62:28]
Roger Porny
Wow.
- [62:28]
Tim Geddes
I've been in and out of it.
- [62:30]
Roger Porny
Yeah, I booted it up and I was like, they.
- [62:33]
Tim Geddes
The recent update vastly improves it. Yeah, it's not purple anymore.
- [62:37]
Roger Porny
Yeah, I saw that.
- [62:38]
Tim Geddes
And the gameplay feels a lot tighter. So I, I pop back in if you haven't given a shot. But yeah, it being a game of the year, I think that's awesome. They're like, it's a very, very good game.
- [62:46]
Roger Porny
It's just one of those is like, I just want to play Dead Cells now. You know what I mean? Like, I was like, I could just go back to Dead Cells. I don't know. I know it's different, but it's.
- [62:52]
Tim Geddes
God, that's also good. That's also good too.
- [62:55]
Roger Porny
Oh, should I even do that? I couldn't find it.
- [62:57]
Tim Geddes
Scarlet Libra says I should have specified I don't have a Switch one. Okay, so then. Yeah, just hold off. Yeah, don't play a Pokemon yet. You're in a good spot. Wait till the switch 2. Get the switch 2.
- [63:08]
Roger Porny
Or.
- [63:08]
Tim Geddes
And then let's talk.
- [63:09]
Roger Porny
And you can play Scarlet Violet on there.
- [63:10]
Greg Miller
Or. Or if you're cool. If you're cool and you have a Steam deck.
- [63:15]
Tim Geddes
Yeah.
- [63:15]
Greg Miller
And be like, maybe. Maybe I've been itching to start up Fire Red.
- [63:19]
Tim Geddes
Hey, here's the thing.
- [63:20]
Roger Porny
Oh, I was gonna.
- [63:21]
Tim Geddes
Here's the real ass. If you're cool and you have a phone, play Pokemon Fire Red. That's the answer. Many ways easily. I have a phone. The Frog Night says there's a third GameCube startup. I didn't know that. How do you get it? Show me it. Frog Night, David N. Says, what's the craziest video game rumor slash secret? You believed as a child.
- [63:51]
Greg Miller
That'S normal.
- [63:52]
Tim Geddes
That's one.
- [63:57]
Greg Miller
That'S really slow between these transitions. All right, so then here's two.
- [64:05]
Roger Porny
Boing. Sounds like a meme. Sounds like a Vine meme.
- [64:11]
Tim Geddes
Oh, that's right. Yeah.
- [64:15]
Roger Porny
That's sick.
- [64:16]
Greg Miller
That's hold D on all four controllers. That's crazy.
- [64:19]
Tim Geddes
Oh, that is right. All of these are times to the little gamecube going around.
- [64:24]
Roger Porny
So it's good stuff.
- [64:25]
Tim Geddes
Crazy video game rumor and secret. Definitely the truck to get Mew and Pokemon Yellow.
- [64:31]
Roger Porny
Yeah. I had a friend who told me. Who's this? How I knew he was a liar. He looked at me and said, you can steal a car in Hitman two if you put cheat codes. And I was like, maybe. And I typed all the cheat codes in. Didn't exist. That kid. So. But I believed it.
- [64:43]
Tim Geddes
Lexus trying to gave me monthly had an April Fool's joke that if you beat 25 of the wireframes in or Polygon Fighters, whatever they were in melee you can unlock Sonic and Tails. And I knew that was. But I was like, I still want to see if I can do the challenge.
- [64:59]
Roger Porny
Every. Every month or so I would go on YouTube and I would just spend an entire day on my weekend as a kid looking up how to get free Xbox LIVE gold. And I would just go to these awful websites and put in all my information.
- [65:11]
Tim Geddes
All of the information.
- [65:12]
Roger Porny
It'd be great.
- [65:13]
Tim Geddes
John Van Pelt says it's like the Grease song Some summer Loving. So I get that. But I don't get summer. Summer happens so fast. Okay. I don't know why you're talking about. Yes.
- [65:29]
Roger Porny
No.
- [65:30]
Tim Geddes
No.
- [65:31]
Roger Porny
Freaky Friday.
- [65:32]
Tim Geddes
Freaky Friday. You probably could not hear.
- [65:36]
Roger Porny
It's because of his Mike now needs a little apartment.
- [65:39]
Tim Geddes
Apartment.
- [65:40]
Roger Porny
Next is Tusk.
- [65:41]
Greg Miller
God, I'm glad it's not the chairs. At least we use.
- [65:44]
Tim Geddes
Guys, this just keeps getting crazier. Okay, 16 bit Otaku says Tim, there's four different startup sounds for the game.
- [65:50]
Roger Porny
You. I don't believe that. I don't know the gaming thing that I. That is lying to me.
- [65:55]
Tim Geddes
This might be the one thing Tundra Boy Chocolate McMuffin09 just gives a five dollar super chat without saying anything. Thank you very much.
- [66:03]
Roger Porny
Thank you so much. That's very sweet.
- [66:04]
Tim Geddes
Tundra Boy says how often do you watch the Smash Brothers Melee intro? No exaggeration. Once a month.
- [66:09]
Roger Porny
Wow.
- [66:10]
Tim Geddes
I love this thing. It's so good.
- [66:12]
Roger Porny
So cool.
- [66:12]
Tim Geddes
It's so. The music is so special. Like the just love for Nintendo stuff, man. I love the Melee Intro. The only Problem is, I wish that every Smash Brothers intro ended with the Super Smash Brothers and they don't.
- [66:27]
Roger Porny
Which one ends of the Ultimate A brawl.
- [66:29]
Tim Geddes
A couple of them don't.
- [66:30]
Roger Porny
Oh yeah.
- [66:31]
Tim Geddes
Omega Buster says is Johnny A still causing chaos? Yeah, dude. Him and Mike. Horrible combination of human beings.
- [66:39]
Roger Porny
Shouldn't have ever put those two together.
- [66:42]
Tim Geddes
Mad Rock says Tim. Thoughts on the re release of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers using AI and see this going back, we were talking about acronyms earlier and I was like saying I'm a forum kid. So like, like, would you ever be able to look at MMPR and know it's Mighty Morphin Power Rangers?
- [66:55]
Roger Porny
Crazy. That is crazy.
- [66:57]
Tim Geddes
That's how this guy's head works, everybody.
- [66:58]
Roger Porny
I would be like personal reps or whatever. I don't know.
- [67:02]
Tim Geddes
No, I did not know they were really re releasing. I mean I'm. This is the trend now. Let's take all the old school and like make them look.
- [67:09]
Roger Porny
It's really upsetting, especially with music videos because like a lot of them have just sneakily done that where, I don't know, they have a back end thing where they're able to re do a thing. And some of them are good, like actual ones like that Michael.
- [67:18]
Tim Geddes
There's actual remastering effort put into it.
- [67:20]
Roger Porny
Exactly. And then some of them are just like, wow, you just truly ruined this video. And there's no way for me to look at the original one.
- [67:25]
Tim Geddes
Totally.
- [67:25]
Roger Porny
There's been very few like AI upscale things that I've been impressed with. One of them, Invader Zim, there's a fan project where someone did that and I was like, like, this looks really good. Because the original one using the AI.
- [67:34]
Tim Geddes
As a tool when you are actually remastering it and like, yeah, that's how this should go. Throw it in, see what happens.
- [67:42]
Roger Porny
No text is legible.
- [67:43]
Tim Geddes
Weird ass eyes to everything. Everyone's eyes are always like this. I don't like it. Don't like it one bit. Well, everyone, we did it. We talked about video games. Officially.
- [67:54]
Roger Porny
Officially.
- [67:54]
Tim Geddes
A lot more than I thought we were going to, if I'm being honest. I hope I didn't let anyone down.
- [67:59]
Roger Porny
Oh, you know you didn't let me down. Good. That's all that matters.
- [68:02]
Tim Geddes
Thank you, Roger. What a great show.
- [68:04]
Roger Porny
Back to back.
- [68:05]
Tim Geddes
If you didn't see the prequel to this, check out Games Daily. Get hyped for an episode of Game Showdown that's about to happen and then get glued to your couch and watch the Nuzlocke as Nick goes through Johto exclusively on Twitch Live. It'll then go on YouTube later as a big old VOD. But until next time, I love you all. Goodbye.
- [68:26]
Roger Porny
I was playing ninja.
