welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt it's all bit hearty so I don't really understand it Luke is that a little sashwat penis Dan I accidentally got soap in my urethra and occasionally Terry smallo maybe you wake up in the middle of the night with a little sashwat penis inside of you multiple nerdgasm your guide to all things nerdy We're alone again we are there's just two of us this week oh yeah good point yeah Dan still not back still living it up in the US yeah word is he couldn't choose between all the wives you know cuz cuz he's Utah yeah you can just have so many uh I think he's just spoiled for Choice yeah I don't I don't

know if he'll ever come back actually yeah yeah cuz after you sort of pick so many wives if you do move somewhere else how do you pick which one you take with you well he can't bring them back with him to well not to here but to he can't take them back to Singapore can he even if he could how do you choose yeah yeah it's tough isn't it cuz even if he could take them all back with him there'd only be one that would be his wife wife yeah do you have a favorite wife no not yet me either maybe one day yeah maybe later this year I'll have one yeah yeah once you get married I'll probably have a favorite [Laughter] wife what you been doing doing ah just training and training and training I've done nothing this week so getting ready for the marathon eh yeah yeah yeah all

set to uh watch on the television practicing drinking your G&S might just do a little bit more practice right now I thought you were going to I thought we were going to hear you open the can as usual but no no I've already opened it I'm sorry no it's all right whatever I didn't time it right this week oh well um how is your achievement competition going it is going great this week I'm sure that's what all the listeners want to know I remember last week when I wasn't happy when I felt like I was the only person in the team doing something uhhuh this week we are quite happily going to sail past the um the score we need this week right and yeah cuz we've got another hour to go and what are we on

we're I think 2,200 above the level where we would get kicked out of the comp so you can kind of just sit back and do nothing this week yep not even worried about getting any any more achievements now H well you still got to get one every day still getting one every day I still got a couple hundred today aund points not 100 achievements yeah right yeah yep how many games do they need to put out for you to maintain this level of achievement getting they don't have to oh like if they stopped releasing games today for some reason yep how long could you sustain this level of performance I probably got just what I've got at the moment probably the achievement of day easy I can go for a couple of years on that but the level

I'm getting probably I don't know 3 months right so how how many achievements do you get a day on average uh well this week I got 103 right 103 achievements yes my gamer score for this week was 2,645 wow see I got quite a lot today I got n ooh um that's probably that might be the most I've ever gotten in a day and I'll I mean I'll explain why and it's it's not very impressive to be honest um the reason why but I I will explain why uh a bit later but yeah I just wondered because you actually got 11 did I yep oh there you go oh no sorry it was 11 points never mind 11 points I got more than 11 points oh no this hasn't updated cuz I I follow you on a site that I go on so I have you as unofficial friend on there but for some reason it hasn't it doesn't say you got any achievements

what's this what's this website that I'm on that I don't know about true achievement.com someone else was telling me about this the other day actually and I was like I'm sure that's the thing Luke was talking about yes yeah Ben from big head mode and I were talking about this the other day and I was like I swear to God that's the thing that Luke's killing himself to to you ditched the second day of RTX to to survive on that is very true that is exactly what I did okay all right yeah I just wanted because I suppose you've got the whole Xbox 360 back catalog if you needed to dip back there and get some achievements and you've got your Windows Phone Y and I mean how many Xbox One games how often

do Xbox One games come out cuz I only buy I I buy games infrequently as you know how often there's two games a week at least really okay and what I also do as well as I fired up my old um American account that I've got right cuz there are I didn't I don't don't use that account to buy games cheaper I'll still just pay whatever they're worth in Australia but there's a whole catalog of games that are never going to be released in Australia right and so I just got my this American count that's all legit and everything I got that up and running and I got some games what that what games are not released here um there's a whole thing with um this ID at Xbox which is Microsoft they've got all these developers coming

in and they're sort of helping them get their game released yeah um half of them because they're such small companies they can't afford to pay to get their game um classified in Australia it's just not worthwhile for them right and we can't have it for sale here if it's not classified exactly we we're allowed to buy it they're not allowed to sell it it's really weird it's quite legal I can we can own movies and games that are not classified yeah right if they have a classification that's where that runs problems right cuz I have I've ordered the because we can't buy the um unclassified version of DVDs over here either but you can import them and I like I own some but in the US like if a horror movie comes out they'll have like the DVD version that's like rated R and

then they'll have the unclassified which is like the you know the yeah actually call I think unrated and they won't have that's that's it yeah they won't have those at the movies ever because I know like I got this from Kevin Smith cuz Zack andir Mak a porno he was fighting to get that as a as an R rated movie right and they nearly didn't and he's gone um well what if we just go with an unrated like and we just release it like that like we'll still get people to come see it and no one will go and see it cuz people think it is a porner and you won't get that huh audience but yeah the second that they come out at the on DVD they just got to be unrated and they can sell away but in Australia we don't have that no not that I'm aware of although sometimes I see

things it says the unrated version but it's it's not it's it's not no we don't really have that but the games I've got are like um Tower of guns never heard of it um jet car jet car stunts Roblox yeah right no no just just a t they Little Indie Games one of them I think one game I picked up by 6180 Moon I got for four bucks okay and that'll give me a th000 achievements game is call okay wow so it's really all about pacing yourself uh taking advantage of you know International laws and and just you know making sure you get a couple hundred achievement points every day yep couple gamer score not achievements all right

yeah get get the one a day and then I just watch I've actually had to hold back getting it playing games this week because I want to save some easy achievements I've got cuz the new Lego game came out this week yeah I love those games but I have to hold off because I need stuff for next week yeah cuz if your team lets you down next week fast quick points yep I got a bunch of achievements today and uh I'll tell you why I don't know if you if you can see what they were for you'll figure it out um but we finally finished we we've been playing it together uh Murdered Soul Suspect what did you think I really enjoyed it I was a little disappointed with certain aspects of it but I don't understand why it got so much hate I can tell you cuz people thought it was an

action game yeah you look at the cover of that game it's a cop who's been shot and he's got a gun and right there's none of that in the game right no this is not um the only combat is against the demons which is not combat it's well it is but it's stealth more than anything else yeah I really liked it I was disappointed there were elements of Investigation in it where you found Clues and you had to kind of guess things but a lot of it comes down to finding things hidden around the map for example the reason I got so many achievements today is because we finally got to the last two areas of the game and Ed all of the the objects that you have to find to complete the side quests because all you have to do is find the objects and then you solve the mystery

kind of thing yeah and so yeah we just knocked off all the all of those things like the the Salem witch trial history the the history of Salem in general the um you know like the side quests about each location has got uh haunting story that's associated with it that kind of thing I thought also very interesting game and I love that story and I wish they would even I wish I would try again to make a game like that I think it could have been a little bit better yeah with having that little bit more investigation than just getting lucky finding things to progress but yeah but then they've also tried that in the past with like LA Noir LA Noir was really frustrating actually I said today I think maybe you know if we sat down and tried to play through that again we

could we could get through it because now we know but the first time I tried to to play that it was so frustrating because only having a limited range of responses to people really messed me up because I'd be wanting to question somebody about something and i' choose an option that I thought was going to be about that and then he would just fly off the handle about something else and and it didn't actually matter at all what you did no apparently you could just flunk it all and you would still progress yep you could skip the combat and just pick randomly for everything and then just still the game would move to the end and I yeah I think they missed the mark there as well yeah I enjoyed Murdered Soul Suspect more than I enjoyed LA Noir I'll say that and I'm

probably in the minority there but you know whatever no I yeah I don't understand I think it is because people thought it was an action game so they brought it with completely different mindset than what they're walking into yeah right yeah there's no there's very little action in it and like the what there is is simple and it's I don't know it's a great story yeah exactly it's it's like an interactive story more than anything else but yeah I uh I really enjoyed it I'm I'm glad we we made it through it um I I only say that because we get limited time to play games not that because it was bad or anything it's just that you know I so rarely get to finish a game these days felt good to get through it you know you ever going to finish the Witcher I don't know that

the Witcher ends well you can finish the main story can't you yeah you can I suppose you can see like I keep saying I every time I jump in to play it I get a chance to jump in and I'm like I got progress this main story I could maybe do with getting some more of the uh the potion upgrades or upgrading my armor a bit first so maybe I'll just do that and then I'll get into it and then 4 hours later I haven't done anything cuz I've just been [ __ ] around trying to find some rare herb and uh and then it's like oh well that's my time to play for this week I really need to sit down and play that again soon it's very good maybe want to get kicked out of my comp one game that I've been playing

this week and I can play it more because I can play it on the train and I can play it on my lunch break and I can kind of play it anywhere is it tag it's a it's not tag it's a game called crashlands okay it's on Steam and it's also on IOS and Android and it has Cloud sync uh and your save game can be synchronized between all of the platforms okay so I can play it on my iPhone or my iPad also on the PC I don't have the PC version because I've been playing on the iPad I don't need it but you can do that and I think um that's pretty awesome or I don't I don't know that there's enough that's different about the PC version to make me want to buy it but but the fact that I can I can just play it on everything is is pretty awesome I don't know a whole lot of

games where you can do that I think it's something that's starting to take off now because they're starting to realize that people want will will do that they will have their PC version their phone version and depending on the type of game if it works go for it why not yeah well this one's really good for it so basically what what crash lands is uh a mix of kind of Diablo Style game play with the crafting kind of gameplay more like Don't Starve than than Minecraft and it's also in that kind of isometri isometric style so have you played Don't Starve uh yes okay so imagine Don't Starve but with um a bit more yeah Diablo style combat where there's more combat involved than what

is in sort of Dark Star where it's more just about survival yeah and the combat is better it's not just stuff hits you and then you hit stuff back like when when you each of the enemies has a different style of combat and when an enem is about to attack you see like a a red area where the attack is going to be and so you can dodge it and it's it's very welld designed for mobile devices like touch screens and stuff and from what I understand on the PC you really only use the mouse cuz it's all based around kind of one click very simple interface but the crafting and everything gets quite in-depth later on yep so uh yeah basically you're this character you crash land on this planet um your Escape pod is there and then you explore the area find new teleporters so

you can teleport from area to area uh you get quests so it's a little different to to those crafting games in the it's actually it's got quests and stuff and it's only single player there's no multiplayer or anything like that and um you just kind of work your way around the world instead of leveling up you build yourself better armor as you discover so like you start with a crafting bench and then you use that crafting bench once you get enough materials to build a sawmill and then you use the Sawmill once you get enough materials to build uh like a leather working thing and then you kind of progress on from there how much do you pay for it crash lands uh I think on the iPhone I got it for like a couple of bucks I could be wrong about that it's

not very expensive oh cuz I'm looking at the Android one version and it's $720 at the moment oh okay I think I got it for a bit less than that cuz maybe during in aale but I'd say it's worth it if you you know have time like cuz I catch public transport and stuff like that so it's kind of a game that I'm enjoying and I like it because I can find time to play it more easily than I can you know on my Xbox for example yeah yeah I recommend it cool I might I'm I'm very tempted to hit this buy button right now but I might hold off and see if I can get it for a little bit cheaper all right I'll be interested to see what you think of it when you get it yeah just remind me cuz I'll forget okay now we both went and saw movies this week we did we did um we both went and

saw the new Ro tooth movie Laser team yes yeah mine uh I got invited uh sort of last minute to a screening of it um and I knew you were going so I thought oh this is a good opportunity for us to discuss it I liked it I liked it as well I liked it even more than I thought I was going to like it I was even a bit hesitant like I'm a big rooster te fan but I was a bit hesitant thinking that they were making a movie that was going to be just for their fans and going to have jokes everywhere I that I would miss cuz their Community is crazy yeah I see I'm not a big well I mean it's not that I'm not a fan it's just that I'm not that big a fan I'm not up to date on everything that they do I've seen a few videos I think they're funny but I'm not I definitely don't follow them you know

what I mean like most of my experience with them is because you're a fan and Jenna's a fan and so I therefore I see stuff that they do because you guys watch it or because you know you and I have gone to see them at PS or something when we've been at packs but like there were in jokes didn't there but it was a movie that anyone could go and watch and absolutely enjoy yeah totally it was it was like a legitimate movie it was not uh I didn't feel like it it did any there there were no jokes or anything that I didn't understand or that I I thought oh that's that's a rooster teeth thing it was just it was just a good funny movie movie I like I do like how they even made they even made fun of the sort of Americans in those types of movies where there's

one line in it where it's um um you have to save the world but more importantly the nation yeah that's right got a world to save and more importantly a nation yeah it's great yeah the the script was good very well written and I thought the acting was the acting was all right there was some bits there was a bit like yeah these guys aren't they're not they they're not actors well they are now guess they're performers yeah they are now but they're funny guys so it works if they get to do the sequel which they've sort of alluded to in the movie at the end of our screening um Bernie burns from wrist of teeth uh was there and he came down did a Q&A at the end and somebody asked about the sequel and he I mean I'm pretty sure he said yeah they'll be

doing one so they I was about to say they'd be crazy not to but I don't know how this did finally well see I don't know they they crowdfunded it right and they they raised it cost 2.4 million or sorry they they raised 2.4 million I guess that doesn't really mean that's how much it cost it could have cost more than that um cost less yeah depending on how how it all panned out cuz you know the movie industry is a weird place I didn't know that I thought they just kind of made it the way that they make you know other films or that other kind of YouTube people make films yeah but no this was a full-on where making a movie where funding a movie and the money it really shows yeah well that's a lot of the special effects so I was kind of like oh this is this is like a legit thing like

I think there's one scene where this army helicopter and my God that thing looked real yeah I I mean it's funny too because I know that stuff's fake because I know that they didn't have the money for that in theory or like that they couldn't really have done that but other than that I don't think I would have noticed and other things like there are certain things in Indie and budget films that I kind of take note of because I've you know like stuff that we've done before and we've tried to pull something off and it doesn't work or like you know like we did we've done gags before where we blow up a car and we just make a light flash and stuff like that or yeah and then there's there's a scene in this where they crash a military vehicle I think they're in like I think in a jeep

the bad guys are in a jeep ah yes and they they crash and you never see it crash but you you think you did if you know what I mean there a very successful kind of not crash do you know what I mean like I don't know if do you even remember do you know the scene that I'm talking about yes yeah but yeah you think you're pretty sure that they've crashed but you never see the actual well I mean they did right because it looks like they're about to crash and then everyone's like Yay they crashed and then you kind of you see the car kind of do a little thing but then but then I was like like hey that was pretty successful not crashing a car like I thought I you know I I felt like it

crashed even though I but because I was looking for it I knew that it didn't I don't know it's hard to explain there was a lot of stuff like that where they it was handled very well and I was like I guess they got some professionals into to show them how to do that stuff and um apparently the most dangerous stunt uh in the movie was performed by Bernie himself and that was when he gets BL Ed out of the house when it explodes and lands on the Bonnet of a car oh wow yeah he had to jump off a thing onto the Bonnet out of a car yeah I know he wasn't blown out of the house but still falling on the car no no no no he was he was blown out of the house no but yeah he said that that was the the most dangerous thing and he and he did that himself and they kept telling him

beforehand just make sure make sure you you land right otherwise best not worry about it just just make sure you land properly I've actually may let him do it yeah well I guess they professionals but they are but well the so the plot of the film actually I just realiz we haven't explained the film at all no the plot of the film is that Earth has been contacted by aliens and they've informed us that there are various different races of aliens one of which is very violent and wants to come and take over the the Earth and so we need to prove ourselves by training a champion to fight their champion and to help us this alien race says they're going to send us uh a suit of armor which will enhance our Champions abilities and so they they they ship the

suit but because it's coming through space you know it's going to take a long time to get here and so Earth begins training this Champion who's this guy who's like raised from birth to be perfect he's like a perfect um you know fit Kind Of Enders game style Ultimate Warrior person and I'm just trying to remember the actor who plays him because I actually quite like him he's quite a good actor he was good he was funny and also I mean clearly uh would kick the [ __ ] out of me and yeah no I thought he was really good in it there's a lot of funny stuff regarding his character that I thought was handled really well cuz he never he maintained his seriousness but was still goofy in a way I liked the way he was handled yeah I don't want to give things

away cuz I I think everybody should like you should check this film out if if you get the it's it's it's really good I think you'll probably find I'll be released to buy pretty soon have a long run at the cinema no I don't know if it's is it getting a mainstream release uh yes and no it's basic what they've done is they've released it out cu we've seen the release that's it's out there now a lot of the viewings that the one I saw was done by website called tug Tu yeah same so that's again B from big head mode did that which is this is a great thing so it gives people the option to and I wish I'd known about this early I'd seen it around um so for movies that don't have the money behind them to get into all the cinemas they go

to this website and people can organize their own viewings yeah so they contact their their local Cinema and go hey I want to try and get this movie showing here if I set up through here if we get the people will you show it and then if they go yes you put it onto the website if you can get the numbers to buy tickets they'll guarantee that the viewing is happening yeah right and so that's sort of the how this happened for this movie I don't think and so that's out there now I don't know how long it's going to run for right it's not going to be like two months like Star Wars is no is Star Wars still going I think it's still going but it is really starting to wind down now I need to go see it in Gold Class I haven't seen it in Gold class yet I need to do the same okay we

can talk more about that Star Wars in a bit we've got some Star Wars news but yeah so anyway yeah they send they send this suit of armor and then through happen stance four kind of redneck idiots end up with the suit and and then well different bits of the suit cuz it's all supposed to go on the one person but they all end up with individually different bits and uh and then stuff happens Y and then you can go watch it to find out the rest yep and yeah as I said definitely go see this yeah it's very funny go get your hands on it yeah see it somehow support them preferably cuz I'd like to see what they're going to do next they had trailers for a few other films that they're doing at the beginning did you notice that I missed

the first 15 minutes of the movie oh bugger all right yeah I don't know how it really really starts so you didn't introduce it then no um the way it was they were running really behind and by the time everyone arrived and able to get everyone in it was yeah already late well bugger so I'm hopefully going to try and ask if hey missed the first 15 minutes because I was helping you out any [ __ ] I can get a copy of a movie sweet I think that's fair agreed so two thumbs up yeah two thumbs up for me too I really enjoyed it go check it out uh another film that I really enjoyed is the force awakens and we've talked about that quite a bit but we do have some Star Wars news as usual so uh accordingly here is

the Star Wars news jingle Star warss Wars news Star Wars [Music] news we start with the sad news uh sure yeah go go ahead what's the sad news well the fact that it's been pushed back M cuz it was meant to be coming out June next year yeah May May and now we're looking at December next year which kind of sucks yeah it does sucks you know why right I'm tempted to say money but they sort of it's not money well traditionally Star Wars movies always came out in May like they've all come out in May the force awakens was the first to not do that I think they think the reason that it was so successful has something to do with the fact that it came out when it did so they want all

the others to come out then now I think that's what it is oh I actually thought it's because they're filming more no I don't think so I think it's because the force awakens like came out in December it was like the biggest freaking movie of all time so they're like well well let's put the next one out in December and do that again oh I thought it was yeah just because like they've cuz they've Rewritten the script a little bit based off everyone's reaction to the force awakens that was going to push it back a little bit um this is the full press release from Disney it says Star Wars episode 8 originally scheduled for release on May 26th 2017 will Now debut on December 15th 2017 the move follows the extraordinary success of Star Wars the Force awakens which was the first

Star Wars movie to Premiere in December in the popular holiday movie goinging Corridor it smashed numerous records including biggest domestic and Global debuts of all time as well as the biggest domestic second and third weekends blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah yeah I mean to be fair they don't follow that up with with saying that's why we moved it but it seems to imply that that's the case oh and it might also have something to do with Avatar 2 coming out the week after yeah that could be that could be related as well yeah I've just read that that yeah episode eight will now open a week before James kon's Avatar 2 H which is one of the old biggest grossing movies I really wish they'd get

off how much movies gross I want to actually know just tickets they sold yeah it's it's how many people actually went and saw it yeah they don't want to know that it's it's weird it's like this whole thing with video games where they talk about how video games make more than movies make when they launch they also cost 10 times as much yes so come on yeah just give me don't tell me how much it made tell me how many tickets you sold cuz the cost of movie tickets now is a lot more than what they used to be yeah exactly yeah it's ridiculous well it's not I guess it serves the purpose which is they w't encourage everybody to go see it so it's marketing so it looks like here that the Pirates of the Caribbean is now coming out in May instead of Star Wars no I

don't care no I was actually hoping that they'd maybe do uh theater re-release of the original movies yeah I'd like them to do that in the original theatrical version that would be great you've got them there they're just they're just just give them to us they're crazy not to like it's printing money that would make so much the other news about Star Wars episode 8 um and you you kind as you said maybe this has got something to do with the sh the reedu but they are giving it a bit of a rewrite um because of the fans reaction to the force awakens not in a bad way apparently um people were so taken in with the new characters Ray Finn and Poe that they're going to change episode 8 and kind of reduced the roles of some other new

characters to to give the characters from Force awakens some more stuff to do apparently which is a bit weird which I just find a little weird that they didn't really think that people were going to fall in love with those three characters and think that they're now the three main characters in the movie like you had Luke L and Han the original and now you've got Finn rain po yeah and I don't know it seems like it's a bit of a weird I don't know like wasn't the script finished isn't the story like set like I don't know it seems like a weird thing to say oh maybe we'll go in and change it and make put some more of these people in like hang on a minute isn't isn't the script supposed to be like a finally tuned engine for the for the movie even the

director of eight I forget who that is Ryan Johnson Ryan Johnson he was still asking JJ to change things and put things in that'll make his job easier at eight that's true actually I forgot about that so even something that's sort of we've completely finished we're filming this now can you change that for me yeah well I don't know I mean Force awakens turned out well so can only get better I don't know about that it could get a lot worse exactly yeah so they are changing a few things and then the other Star Wars news we have is that the force awakens will be released on Blu-ray in April which is pretty quick um I'm not getting it on blur I've already pre-ordered my copy though I'm just getting it digitally on

your Xbox yep it's 22 bucks it is but then what are you going to watch it on when your ex when when the Xbox two comes out whatever they call the next one I'll probably buy it I'll going to buy it more than once I it's a stupid argu I know I'm not it's pointless because like once they release all three they release a trilogy pack with all the extra spee special features I'll buy that and then they were released the whole nine movies with the super special edition features for everything else I'll buy that you know what I don't know why I worry about it you know what I'm looking at right now that I dragged out from under my bed that that that I've not made any use of in a long time it's a box of of some things guess what those things you want to discuss that on here

or the other box ah okay the one that the one that was behind I no I told you I don't use these anymore ah I'll give you a clue they start with the they start with the letter d and you don't use anymore no well that takes them out mhm mhm I'll give you a clue there's another D in there I can't think DVDs you still have some yeah I do I got a box full of them they're not even in in cases anymore I took them out of the cases and put them just in the I got I bought like uh sleeves for them and then took the covers out of the cases and put the DVD in the sleeve and then the

sleeve inside the cover and then put them in a crate and threw all the cases away recycled those because I just had too many and not I I was running out of bookshelf space and then now like I don't know it's just I look at this box and I'm like that is like thousands of dollars wasted I'm not even allowed to to get them digitally legally like if I don't watch the stupid DVD technically I'm breaking the law it's like it's ridiculous so yeah I guess I shouldn't judge you on what format you buy it on because it makes no [ __ ] difference cuz it'll all be obsolete eventually within a year or two so maybe it's better to buy it digitally I think it is yeah you just got to be careful where you buy it from digitally still because they can still

disappear yep just because you have the license in that format they can still cuz you're not buying the movie you're buying a license and that licenses to watch on that format but they argue that that's the same as DVDs anyway so that's what I'm saying with DVDs it's yeah so technically I mean if you're going to buy a DVD and then rip it onto like your hard drive or whatever so you can use it with your iTunes and all your devices and that kind of stuff you might as well just downloaded it as far as they can they concerned like that's what's I don't know it seems all all a bit Petty to me like like all these movies that I've got on DVD right if I say they stopped making DVD players in a couple of years which they probably will

mhm I have to re all those yes like because you don't have the license to play them on another media device yeah right and so the lesson that I've learned from that is don't buy them in the first place like watch stuff on Netflix and then you know they keep getting closer and closer to being something sensible and then they take a step back I know with Netflix at the moment yeah they're now doing a whole Crackdown on the people trying to log in from Australia to the US version yeah yeah yeah and it's not Netflix don't really care but they're giving pressure from movie studios and S like well we're in Australia we can't watch it any other way what do you want to to do well you can you have to get foxtail cuz foxtail I think that's the

problem here is that foxtail owns the um the rights to show various TV shows in Australia and I'm not paying $100 a month for something I can get for 11 no why the [ __ ] would you I've never had Fox ta uh and I never will I've never had cable at all I've had it in houses that I've been in because somebody else had it but I've I've never paid for it and I never will like I don't understand I I don't know it's just so expensive it's it's just gotting more and more expensive as it goes on but there's no Freedom with it I don't find right you have to watch I mean sure some of them sometimes there's like a 100 channels but like I don't know I've I've never sat down at some fox tail like say at my my parents house never sat down at fox tail flick through and found exactly

what I wanted to watch no like it's always a compromise it's like ah I guess I'll sit here and watch this no I'll go do something else like I'll play a video game or something yeah something that I really the the way we want to watch things now is we want to go in I want to watch this you click the button you watch play and then you binge watch for a few episodes cuz and then you go off and do whatever else you want yeah but I guess I've never been I've never watched TV the same way that you know some people just come home and flick the TV on and watch whatever's on I've never done that I it doesn't if I turn it on it's because I'm going to watch something and I already have an idea of what I'm going to watch around something specific yeah but so yeah I'm not I'm not not the

target audience so every time I think that we're nearly getting somewhere good we've got to get rid of the whole licensing across regions yeah but I don't know that that's feasible at the moment like I said because there's too many different laws in different countries and all that crap for now until they're forcing people to Pirate is what I think they're not forcing people and I mean because you don't need a movie so they're not forcing you that's why that's not a great argument like no but no what I'm saying is this they've shown if you make things available instantly at a reasonable price yeah people will get it people buy it the same thing used to happen with games yeah yeah agree games I think of they still need to work on their price but with the availability it's

it's there like if you especially with steam steam is a very positive example I think the Xbox store is not that great and I don't know if that's Microsoft's fault but one example I think that's Licensing in Australia yeah one example is Diablo II we only have one copy of Diablo I on dis in the house which means if we we can't both play it at the same time on different X Xboxes yep so I had to look the other day to see how much it was to buy in the store thinking that should be pretty cheap now right yep it's still $80 yep and uh I know for a fact that I didn't pay $8 for it when I bought the disc in the first place I think I paid like 50 so they need to do something with their pricing on there it should be cheaper than the disc or if not I I understand it not being cheaper

which I think it should be but I can understand it not being cheaper but it should be more expensive no exactly and I guess the problem with that I suppose is that if if you go to EB Games right if EB Games Buy has 10,000 copies of Diablo II and they only sell 9,000 and they you know they need to make some money back then yeah okay they'll reduce them to some stupid price like 40 50 bucks to try and get rid of them and digitally that just doesn't happen so maybe that's there's no shipping there's no there's no cost with it so it could have been 40 or 50 bucks in the first place it just depends on yeah I don't know what the margin on video games is especially not in Australia I'm sure there's like I'm sure there's reasons maybe EB Games

takes a loss on games when they reduce them and and then the other thing is that you've got secondhand games at at ebx at EB well actually EB is not probably the best site cuz their prices are normally the same as the Xbox Live store no but if you go into a store I mean like if I go physically into an EB I guarantee you I can get a copy of Diablo 3 for probably I can get it for under 50 bucks I guarantee it a secondhand one yes new one maybe not I'm I think I think I'm pretty sure the copy that I bought was less than 50 bucks and it's the one that we have is new we just only have one copy we need another one so I don't know it might have been a sale or something like that but I remember at the time that I bought it I remember thinking that's pretty

good and I wouldn't have I wouldn't have thought that to myself had it been more than 50 bucks so Blizzard's pretty bad like that though in general M like they charge I don't know they're still charging like 50 bucks for Starcraft not that long ago and Diablo 2 they still charged quite a lot for Diablo I like 10 years after it came out yeah I remember there's been a few times where I've gone hey I'll get that and then gone wow that's expensive yeah but I guess people pay it so whatever yeah that's um all right buy new 60 bucks what's that Diablo 3 EB yep yeah okay yeah see it's a bit cheaper and I mean if I new games they are the same price right I haven't looked at Dungeon Crawl in a while but I bet it's cheaper on like Dungeon Crawl

or odd game shop or something as well oh even JB highi or Target oh yeah good point the cheapest place to buy games if you're buying a physical copy on day one target huh they will beat anyone interesting well there you go so if you're listening Major Nelson make them cheaper come on yeah how hard is it uh it's the a stray attacks we get it on everything yeah yeah I've heard various Arguments for and against it I don't understand why we have to pay so much more we get paid more that's true allegedly but you don't have to ship it overseas anymore but everything costs more here so just give us free games exactly or free barbecue if you've got barbecue H that would be nice yeah I saw this article um remember how we're discussing New Year's Eve that people

out spent that 500 bucks to get it KN out well it seems to have sort of happened again interesting people have brought a ticket to go to a barbecue right when they get there line up for an hour and a half and then they ran out of food what's Sydney Barbecue Festival yes so that was this Saturday just gone so this was yesterday yeah okay and they sold 5,000 tickets to the event mhm and then sort of R out an hour or two into it and it's sort of like you know how many tickets you've sold how do you run out of food yeah right bloody hell so there's a there's a hate page for it now Sydney Barbecue Festival hate page on Facebook yeah they got a bunch of signs up saying sorry we are sold out far out

o that sign saying sorry we sold out if you actually look at it I think it says check us out on Facebook which is probably the stupidest thing they could have written on that we're sold out [ __ ] hell 25 bucks it cost to get in um the barbecue festival ran out of meat within 2 hours of opening what a joke PID 25 bucks to stand in line for an hour to be told to come back in 2 hours with nothing else to do at the venue no shade and no seating worst event I've ever been to what are these events that seem to be popping up now in Sydney I like to think the best of people and that this is all just like it's incompetence not you know maliciousness cuz it's a scam it's a scam I'm like well it's not the best scam in the world cuz it's like you're going to get caught you

know it's it was in the domain and there were 5,000 people there like it's not it's not the best scam so yeah I guess yeah I don't think it's a scam I think it's just people who get in over their head how do you run out of meat at a barbecue festival cuz that $25 you would know what they get for that $25 or is that just entry in I don't know but you would know I have 5,000 people coming I need at least 10,000 sausages yeah you think so all right it seems like I'm looking at this now do they have to pay for this food as well I don't know it says here the the um in response organizers released a statement declaring that the event was delivered as advertised and there are no grounds for a refund we appreciate your concerns

and are sorry that you had a bad experience there were 13 food Traders at the event who were all briefed in advanced in advance of expected numbers and the food offering although the wait for the food from some Traders was long at times there were other food options available throughout the site and a range of activities including free demonstrations entertainment and exhibitors so blah blah blah unfortunately with barbecue there is a change over period with food and in some instances there was a bit of a weight between Services couple of hours was a bit more a bit of a weight but I don't think this is best response from the organizers yeah I don't know it's s like saying we're sorry but we don't really care yeah it's not our problem thanks for

your money so you had to pay 25 bucks to get in get in and then then buy F buy food but there was nothing else there it's pretty weird I don't I guess I just don't like barbecue that much was fun this sh like they're also saying like we provided seating in a tabled areas there was free water at bars well there are a lot of people who don't drink and they wouldn't think I'm going to go to the bar to get a free water yeah right yeah interesting Luke let's say you wanted to to run a festival mhm in Sydney say for for argument sake CU that's where these these have taken place y right while the other brothers are doing up CRI crimes now if you were going to run a festival MH and you wanted to rip people off what kind of Festival would you hold and how would

you rip them off well the how that's the easy part I'm just trying to work out what type of Festival it' be I like how the how doesn't even matter like the type doesn't matter rather well yeah that actually you just don't turn up on the day okay you just yeah you just take the body and then right just change your name say you wanted to get 5,000 people to this Festival of some sort what kind of Festival would you throw well it seems I could do for anything like a barbecue W worked um we can't do another barbecue one people have been people know people are they're on to that I'm going to do some I just think Festival of Lights I don't know why that comes popping into my head Festival of Lights yeah so you talk to like you know B bulb

manufacturers like Phillips and no no I I think that's for some reason that's just those popping into my head I would go not a music festival DJ a lot of a lot of those have been ripoffs too yep um I would go no I need something that makes a lot of money I need something that people are going to pay want to pay money to go to pay through the nose pay through the nose cuz I want I want a lot of money all right I want people spend like the $500 a ticket type of thing what a okay I'm going to pitch you on this right now mhm multiple nerdgasm Expo I thought we wanted people to pay money to go yeah yeah we'll charge
