Ninchendo: A Link to the Past & Christopher Nolan Knighthood

do I have to count in again now that we do it differently no no Final Cut syncs it up it look [ __ ] amazing see automations taking away everyone's jobs I had one job in the podcast the counter's in just do whatever you want to do it AI just takes it everything away I'm going to I'm going to cut it out but you can do it if you want no it's fine welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerdy news this week too which is not unusual cuz AI is pretty much in the news every week now it's everywhere it's everywhere taking over the world yeah

say goodbye to your job say goodbye to miles I just met Luke specifically I've reported I'm not going to say what for he'll find I'm okay to not work if I'm okay for AI to take over all the jobs if it means I don't have to work and I can just do stuff that I want not worry about money it's the taking away the jobs and then me worrying about money I'm concerned about cuz in Star Trek when they decided to we don't need money anymore was because they created a replicator technology which meant food's not an issue anymore that was sort of the start of well then I ask again as I've asked on this podcast before why does that woman live in a trailer in the dirt in Picard and she's mad at him because she lost a job and she lives like a hobo

yeah I I don't know she just chose to do that there are some people who also don't likeed in that lifestyle you know but she didn't seem to really enoy I'm not sure if the showrunner of Picard watched much star Tre or I mean to be fair G sh because I don't know that they I think they were like there's a broader audience we could get here if we just yeah I think the brief for make it a bit like Star Trek but not very much like Star Tre make it more like Star Wars there was swearing in it yeah what's the one thing people broader audiences liked about the Next Generation Patrick Stewart okay have him in it but nothing else Buddy says [ __ ] a lot yeah yeah make it [ __ ] and now he has a

son does he yeah [ __ ] engage he got Bly Crusher priers did he yeah that's the tagline Jesus I know he died and then now he's just invincible so his ghost get got her PR they made him wa isn't he like I don't remember he's they sort of turn him into a robot which is of a very weird thing because they turn him into an Android thing but then go still it that you're going die you don't know because everyone has to die eventually then why did you bring him back was that season one is that he had a terminal illness and he had only certain amount of time to live but then I also think I don't know if they got rid of that with the whole Q storyline and that was not real I don't know I sort of tuned out a little bit I only

watched season one I should watch the rest it was it was pretty good but season 2 was good I like season 2 but it was also quite weird and then season 3 got weirder and I don't know just give me more there was a season 3 yeah yeah yeah the season 3 actually got a lot of aaim I saw that's where you find out about his son Ah that's so season 2 is where you saw the impregnation no just because just 12 episodes of [ __ ] no he got got her pregnant a long time ago cuz it's an adult i s say got her pregnant a lot a long time ago not more than nine months obviously oh because the kid exists the kid's an adult son oh gocha one of those like Angel's Son yes so he was in a Hell

Dimension was he yes yes exactly that okay yeah and he's awful and he's the worst part of that show Absolutely it's a lot yeah it's like Angel's Son there's one good can we write him out of next season have in a little bit bit but we'll we'll mostly just get also one of these actresses won't [ __ ] me can I ride her out she's pregnant perfect now I can be an ass not to me yeah yeah no I can make it seem like it's her fault terrible terrible man um we're doing something different this week which the viewers will have noticed listeners won't notice anything but viewers will notice we've done different or don't like it whatever you think of it please let us know if you have no opinion idea yeah if you like I

Boop done okay I still feel useful again see at least now if for some reason I have to I will be able to SN up everything that came before this as well yeah yeah excellent everything that came before this that's how we used to do it before the AI we were lenting came along and took that job from me um so you need to tell me you weren't here last week because you went to PX that's true that is true how was it tell me about it I'm jealous I love it it was good it's the um the least time I've spent at a pack unfortunately just because Jenna had come back from overseas and she was tired and we you know we could only go on Saturday and Sunday and then we had to come back and pick up lra but four days there now isn't it yeah yeah normally we try and do all four but

um this was it's only three days were able to do uh know really good um it's still I was going to say small it's not small it's it feels small in that um I'm you know none of the major you know the big big companies are there like Microsoft's not there uh Sony isn't really there there was a final fantasy thing uh which I guess is Square Enix technically are we just going to admit now that that wasn't the Final Fantasy they did finally ad they like 16 might be might be more than that I mean come on is there a story that is still continuing or are these completely they're all completely different stories every what they do is they go if if one of them's popular enough they'll make a sequel two so for example this Final

Fantasy 10 two two but that's not Final Fantasy 11 there is Final Fantasy 11 unrelated but that's not it yeah correct and there's Final Fantasy they a theme the themes are generally follow through and the game if there's a Choco it's a Final Fantasy game yeah are they in a shared Universe at least no no no no they're just kind of conceptually similar like they have some some creatures will cross over some ideas like character types and things and like I guess like feel wise they they do a lot of them have Kingdom Hearts that's the only Final Fantasy adjacent game I've yeah they're in that yeah but yeah I think um a lot of the games will have a character called bigs and wedge I just like that you play it maybe no no there's actually characters

even Final Fantasy 7 there's bigs and W really interesting's few I've never played a final fantasy and until two weeks ago I had never played a Legend of Zelda really I have now played one I never had a Nintendo I just never had a Nintendo right Nintendo um I didn't have one of those either that's calls it Nintendo is this is this episode called Nintendo n yeah Nintendo it is but uh so I just I never had a Nintendo the first Nintendo I've ever owned is the switch that's the first Nintendo I've ever owned so I'm assum you Wasing the well no because I was playing it on my handheld switch is a handheld but I was I was just playing retro games on my uh absolute yeah I was I was actually playing the Game Boy Advance version of

Max pay right right I'm currently Z I'm up to the dream you're confused and uh and my daughter who was was watching a movie while I was playing it was like you playing games I'm like yeah and she's like watching me she's like play a different game all right so I went back play the game where you're murdering people yeah of Game Boy man she didn't like it at all and then she asked me to explain the plot of each of the games as I was going through right and she's like no boring boring boring until I got to sure was the past that's right yeah any of our wives and then uh she I she says it was a link to the past I said oh you got to rescue a princess from a castle she was like that one that is the first game I ever

finished yeah right well so I controlled it and she just told me where to go she's like try there open the treasure chest and it it is a very good game I really enjoyed it I'm like okay play more of this in hospital cuz it came out when I was in hospital yeah and I was in hospital for months at that stage and I used to go to the Starlight Room and they used to they reserved a Super Nintendo console for me they reserved that game so no one else could play it because it was a game back then like save states were on the game drive over so and I played through just a few hours each day when I was allowed out of my ward amazing that's a great game that's that's a very um like this the different kinds of zeldas obviously over the years that's I think

a great example of the 2D kind and then they started doing you know the 3D ones with Ocarina of Time and that and they're kind of like similar in um you know like areas are locked off until you get abilities and that kind of stuff and that and they there's kind of Le breath of the wild is way more open breath of you can just go anywhere and I hate that game yeah yeah it's quite different so I think yeah yeah I'm quite fond of the early ones I'm fond of this one and so so that's good yeah I will it is a really good game and I love it didn't want to derail you from PX talk no that's right one other thing I'll say about that though it's a it's that era of games that hold up because they make games that look like that now absolutely yes that's right because they're just so

charming and like the the art style doesn't it it will never look bad it's it will always look you know nice yeah it's Timeless as opposed to it's not like other games where you got fun memories of how it looks then you go back and look at it you go this is just blobs this is yeah like stuff on theet on the nest is like a bit is janky when you go back slightly too old yeah yeah and then early PlayStation games in 3D awful but like the Super Nintendo is like something about it yeah just I age me drive too because I mean I've got I play I've got retro Arch I play all games from all eras but it's the Super Nintendo and the Genesis Mega Drive games that I just keep coming back to well speaking of actually um so well just say yeah Nintendo uh weren't there

someone asked me oh I heard Nintendo were there there was Pokemon Booth I'm think I'm thinking there was talk of Nintendo being there the Pokemon Booth must have been there I did not see Nintendo and normally they are there yeah because in the Australia yeah we don't have like Xbox or Sony but Nintendo have always been there I mean I didn't see them and it I locked so yeah I don't think they were there so big that there were just vast areas you didn't get to explore so I assume if you didn't see it it wasn't there well see I kind see to me it felt like so the main day we were there was the Saturday and normally Saturday at PX is like full on and yeah exactly and it obviously was very busy but because I guess because those big studios or big

sorry big Publishers aren't there uh there's more space and and there's more focus on the Indie stuff so which I'm like when pxr like when the big ones went there I was a bit disappointed and then I started going there's more Indie stuff there and it's stuff that I'm more interested in cuz like when the big ones there they're showing off the game that's coming out next week or just came out and I've seen that but get to experience stuff that you wouldn't normally see I think the biggest Booth was the boulders Gate 3 one which I was like that's an odd one to be doing cuz Sur everybody is going to buy game of the yeah exactly everyone knows about that game but I mean I love those guys so whatever something I learned about Boulders Gate 3 this week that I didn't

know before is that you can watch the entire Game of Thrones series every season twice before in the time that it would take to watch all the cut scenes from Boulders gate is that true that's amazing it's [ __ ] hours days it must be days wor great it's such a good game I got to I got to playing I've been doing it sporadically um Hannah's up to act three I she's also she's in Boulders gate then I know that's what act three is yeah um so me mentioning you know retro games I there's one booth that I saw uh and I started talking to them because I was

like wait what is this um they make new ness games and they have the official garbage pale kids license and they've make a garbage pale kids game for the nest and I really should amazing be able to name them uh okay it's im8 bit is the publisher but that's not who I was talking to it was made by come on uh retainment games and they're releasing them on the cartridges aren't they correct they apparently have their own injection moding machine thingy now they can do it themselves and I got I was like so so there there was this there was garbage pill kids and there was another one that were that were demoing was called Silent something um again another nest game which I was like

how do you do that like how do you make a nest game today and he said in notepad on your computer you have to write assembly code right and then put on the chat and I was like [ __ ] what so I got the details I'm going to try and organize an interview with these guys just to talk about how do you get from like how do you conceptualize plan test like how how do you make a game for well i' also love to know if they're now because remember like Nintendo's a long time ago are they able to get more out of it the system now than what they could back then like see I asked that and he said kind of except they the way he was saying it they're not using any special tools so I know for a fact I looked into doing some commo 64 stuff and a lot of people who do commo 64 games now

use like modern tools yeah to to to yes they can achieve things that you wouldn't really have been able to do if you were just writing it on the com 64 back in the day but you can make a thing and then run it in an emulator on your computer and then it'll work on a com 64 and it's like Tada you achieved a thing that you wouldn't have been able to do um but I guess these guys [ __ ] great got a game quiet which is like it looks like an atmospheric [ __ ] it looks magnificent okay so I have to own a Nez to play this or think can I you probably can also just be able to play it through an emulator would be my guess but okay this is my jam man they've also got one called haunted Halloween 86 which also looks have

I the the curse of posum hollow oh yeah and sorry so they they also released the games on um other platforms you can play and you don't have own AES to play yeah sorry to I mean to use the cartridge you would have to obviously of course yeah yeah they them as well yeah just that CED Halloween 86 that just reminds me of something I think I've played cuz that's the other question these look a little bit better cuz we were just talking about the Nez era being a bit janky these look like well rendered well controllable versions of games that you wanted to these all look like very impressive Nest games because obviously these guys and that's what I meant by getting more out of it like I always go back to like

Grand 4 and the Xbox 360 like Grand Theft 4 came out the Xbox 360 at the start and Grand 5 came out at the end and they are visually completely different games and the Leap Forward they made in just the one console they just got more out of the console well these guys are I would assume even even not just technical wise they have the benefit of knowing you know all the lessons people have made on how to make a game good like G you know just gameplay and conceptually over what 40 years whatever it's been since the nest came out so they can like you know like people would try weird stuff on the nest you get a game you go that's a bit weird like they won't do any of that stuff now no yeah they know what's good

and what isn't sort of there's uh there's another one I I'll just quickly shout out um I'll find out the name of the citronic software they're called and they're on ichio yeah they make they make new retro games for the Commodore 64 Lovecraft themed what so they've got one called Shadow over Hawks Mill so you PS y tronic with a K on ichio um and uh I've played the shadow over hawksmill it's it's actually quite challenging but it is Moody as [ __ ] it is very very cool they've also got another

one called Rocky Memphis the legend of Atlantis which I haven't played but I will say I know why it does it was very did remind me is cuz I have played it it's on the Xbox oh yeah okay really okay well I'm gonna played it and completed it 100 haunted Halloween 86 yeah haunted Halloween 86 yep I finished it in 2019 oh all right it's been out a while been since 1986 Matt you not listen but what else did you did you go to where I told you to go yes I did I did so the um the toxic Crusader game it's it's like a beat him up like

what awesome yeah yeah it's like a beat him up style um you know like The Simpsons Ninja Turtles that kind of thing which is not really my jam I mean it does look great like visually it looks great I'm not sure I would play it a whole lot but it is pretty cool i' be a game I play through once and enjoy but it's like it it's based off the cartoon oh okay so this looks cute this looks like something that you might play at a party or something yes once remember that night we play through what was that game the where you um you in emo band and you had to manage your social media as well what was that called oh yes that was excellent what was that every you play this you play like music section then

you go fight I can't remember fun game what the [ __ ] was that game emo band braw what was it Charlie Murder Charlie Murder that's it that was a good game yeah it was a fun party game I would never have played that on my own but that was fun to play with you guys this would be something like if we were to play games together this would be a fun game to play together but that's true I will get it but yeah I just saw it and I went no you have to go and see this mhm yeah no no did it was amongst um you know it was over the apogee was there they had a bunch of stuff like uh oh and Atari Atari was there with the the new mini Atari 400 console and the

new VCS that of 2600 that you slot the actual cartridges in I had one of those there so I Peck at that talking to the guy and um the new version of oh God what's that racing game where you um it's like a it it looks 3D but it's quite rud it was quite rudimentary back in the day this is like a fancy version of you know you race a car around a track that's kind of look you can just see the whole track on the screen oh man oh you got to narrow that down yeah I know I don't have my notes I well I'm going to do I'm going to try and do a little video for the channel and obviously call out all these like apologies to all of the develop I went to an arcade on the weekend h in the city a time zone for Australians because I don't know if that was an Australian

franchise or whether they had that overseas um and you know I I mentioned a couple of years ago that I went to a time zone and I was disappointed because I I was looking for games that we used to play it's and it's it's mostly just kind of sports and yeah ticket machines now ticket machines big specifically what I was looking for was Time Crisis and they have a Time Crisis right this time zone has Time Crisis like of all the things I'm looking at some cool stuff and then bam Time Crisis 5 and I'm like no way they got to five they got to five apparently that where you hi what was that is that does that have the pedal where you hide cuz a g one where you push a pedal down which would I just remember Time by just firing

randomly away from your Target and I was thinking that that was a that's a bad lesson to to learn from from that game you know out of bullets my foot I wasn't out of bullets after all it's called the Alec Baldwin well too soon all right we don't know yet maybe we'll see how he see how he gets charged with it was one other big thing that I did see there and I had a chat to them was uh funcom had a booth for Dune Awakening I saw I did watch last week's podcast and I saw you talk to him and I saw you got to hold hold the popcorn I did I have I have had a one-on-one encounter with a dune sand worm popcorn buet too many people around for you had a real one very cool I said can I borrow this and they they said yeah yeah and I

said all right I'll be back in they whoa who whoa no you don't he has to stay at the booth cuz they W get one at Halloween 86 for the switch sorry oh back on track now that's right so um there there's some news about Dune Awakening this week I didn't think to ask this but somebody did obviously and this is an important thing to know if you're a fan of Conan Exiles Dune Awakening will not have a dick size slider unfortunately what I know well Conan doesn't for me either because I still playing the Singapore in verion yeah well it does for me but I chatted to them about this because I I said I said we've played quite a lot of K and Exiles together we really loved it so we're excited about this and they said oh we we think

we've refined and improved some aspects for this game for example it will have if you want to you can like form a guild and get involved in the politics of Dune oh which is interesting no he didn't get into specifics but I was like oh that's intriguing um but then also with the building he said one of the things that they did for this is with you know with Conan Exiles you would build but you're all just kind of individually building things like I'll build a wall here build a thing here no I don't know anything about building in that game well in this in dun ing you make blueprints oh and then you say we're going to build this and then you place the blueprint and then you can contribute to it but you don't have people trying to put [ __ ] walls you

know where supposed to be I was like oh that's interesting wow so if you've got the right items in your inventory you can build the correct pieces in the correct I think once you lay down a blueprint you can like build the stuff but you can't just go Rogue and yeah put a wall up in the middle of the room yeah build this in this area I'm going to I'm still going to sleep in the field somewhere but I'll cont of course won't be a field it'll be the desert so yes no fields on I'm I'm going to play this when it comes out if you guys want to Dune what he said it he said the name another thing um I I mentioned turns back and goes you mean like sand June he's like yeah like a sand June I guess it is quite obvious now that you

cuz there are sand ohz there San Junes yeah I get it I get it um the um the one thing I mentioned con Exiles has been out for a [ __ ] 10 years or something right and it's just been constantly getting updates and content updates and content I say is that your plan with this too and they said yes yeah interesting hopefully that it'll be exactly the same I'm in man I'm all right when it comes out let's do it yeah I'll go mine stuff I'll give it to you and then you can do the bluepretty build chit sounds good mhm we we can have or thopters guys yeah but but but not huge dicks is just to be clear we can't have huge dick we'll know that we have huge dicks because it'll be it's like there's no

slider we don't have to choose because it knows this trailer is all cutscenes though so it's hard to know what this game is actually going to look like well it's GNA look like con xil presumably I think it's rust rust you do get digs but you get the pick a size it just randomly goes just gives you a dick gives you a dick you can have a big dick you have a tiny dick you don't choose character looks like at all in Rust right or am I I've seen people play it think you just customized the dick face and everything you're stuck with don't care what the rest of me looks like I had to customize a dick recently what was that for cyber Punk yes it was cyber Punk there a cyberpunk panel uh that was I found it very interesting it was a developer Centric panel it was about but

I was it was simultaneously really interesting but also disappointing because as a as a software developer I was very interested in like literally their process but they just come from GDC where they'd been talking about all that stuff which I wasn't there for and then kept catching themselves going well I mean this is packs and your Gamers so you don't want to know about the nitty green and I was like yes I do no no no yeah yeah tell me more tell me more but then and so they kind of kept it light and now I'm like I'm going to have to buy like a online GDC pass really to hear about the details I would mind going to that one year I think that'd be really interesting I would love to yeah we should do it 2026 pricey I mean industry

event so it's pricey a couple of grand I think 2026 we're doing it multi Excursion it's multiple if you want us to go so that you don't have to I think I would justify in a second if we were making games year so Luke learn how to do what can your job be I was but I was counting in you got rid of it remember oh yeah that's right look when is pack o this year sorry PX Oz this year when October it's October it's us on Halloween no it's early October okay cuz tickets went on sale this week early bird early bird they're already 50% sold out early bird tickets have sold out no

50% sold out it's the 11 13th of October Dan if you're thinking about coming do you want us to book a hotel with two rooms two beds no climbing with you guys okay cuz Hannah I meant to ask you Hannah what's cuz we're going to book a hotel now if we're thinking about coming we can get an extra bed yeah cuz we stay we book our hotel early and we stay to and tail we stay the which is at the entertainment center so we basically get a lift and walk into the entertainment center do you whatever you want I'm going to be like I'm going to make it like a h a h you know I'm going to lay vertically between them who's who are you going to lay your head on that's what I want to know whoever wins the coin

toss except the winner or well would be cuz you got to be Crush level so yes no matter who wins it I win Luke just tell me if you've bought your tickets or not have you I've got I've got tickets yes yeah okay is it is it worth buying the ear birds are they considerably cheaper are they it's worth getting it yes all right I we can do it today he doesn't know but he wants you to go so yes I just want you to go so you can come with me and we can get up to Shenanigans he's never ever not bought an early bird ticket and he doesn't know yeah yeah I actually have no idea mhm 175 for three days Days silly bird okay see Friday is $70 a day Friday is Awesome Saturday is the busiest day

Sunday is a nice relaxing day because that's the family yeah Sunday's good okay I mean they're all good they're all good they've just got they're different things like Friday's good man I like Saturday is the big cosplay day cuz everyone's there to competitions and then Sundays it finishes up a little bit early and it's just that's where families will get sort of the one day ticket to take their kids and it's just a little bit more relaxed and the smell is probably the worst in all three days oh it's 20 years remember that about the oh wow 20 years that's another thing my favorite packs memor still is being told about a game called um BioShock 3 that we never got to play that's right we got to play another game called Bioshock 3 a few years later

but it wasn't the one that they showed us no and also oh God you know what I got to include this in my little video is that photo of Dave with um Randy Pitchford we've got some Randy Pitchford news oh do Randy Pitchford showed us the um Randy Pitchford himself showed us the alien colonial Marines video and it looked amazing and he was like this is amazing guys I promise you it's going to be amazing D was like oh don't let me down yeah he's never forgiven him yeah looked him in the eye told me to my face he did he did what's Randy up to now though well last time we spoke about him was he was watching porn no he's he's still he's all right that's all that's all gone now he's he came out of that unscathed it seems well I guess I

seems unated so he's been doing stuff with the Borderlands movie that's what I've mostly seen him doing these days um but embracer group bought gearbox a little while back which was kind of big news because people were like are they going to get rid of Randy and no they didn't he's still still the boss at gearbox but Embraer just sold them to um 2K I think 2K um was it take two take two take two okay 2K and take two I always getting confused who I'm not sure uh they were owned by somebody else might they might have been owned by 2K previously maybe that's why I'm confused anyway they've just sold them for half the price that they paid for them in the in the first place which is why wild to

me I don't know it just seems weird like you've got a movie coming out that you yeah I don't know maybe they just can't support the um but also what game are they bringing out well that's the other thing too I don't know what Gbox is doing they weren't at packs normally they do a you know a panel they have really great panels at packs one ofls go to but yeah like what what are they doing at the moment I well so I saying the last Borderlands panel was as far as I'm aware I don't think there's been one since was the one for the movie I think that was last year wasn't it or when Eli Roth was there and I don't really care about because I've seen the trailer but yeah what game are they working on but not they s for like million aren't they doing home

world three or something I don't know yeah yeah they paid 1.3 billion in 2021 and then they just sold them for 460 yeah exactly 460 million Embrace in trouble and they're just trying to make money somehow cuz gearbox has a name behind it oh following the sale announcement a gearbox spokesperson confirmed in a statement to Kotaku that embracer has laid off employees who are not tied to the development of its games this has affected PR workers marketing user research in other sectors of the company yeah maybe they are in trouble I don't know yeah cuz that's the only thing I can think of like why would you sell something for a loss especially like a gearbox you have a name and good IP behind

them iFly it's not as big a win as was with that Peter Jackson story I [ __ ] love that Peter Jackson story where Unity wanted to buy wet a digital and so Peter Jackson said fine but I want to keep the Film Production part of it and they said all right so he split it into two companies sold I think wet a digital to Unity for [ __ ] billions of dollars or whatever and then Unity was like actually we we can't afford to run this and Peter Jackson was like I'll buy it off you he bought it back for like like a third of the price wow and now he just owns it again [ __ ] amazing got paid to for nothing literally for nothing yeah amazing um I mean this with gear the same book into movie after

movie after movie so we shouldn't be surprised but yeah like gearbox what was the last game they brought out was Tiny tiners wasn't it yes which was all right it's okay yeah tiny was it yeah tiny wonderlands yeah recently released featured I think they are working on a Borderlands 2 four or whatever it is yeah probably yeah no they haven't uh as well as the next game in the real time strategy franchise home world I working they've been working that for a while they're working on new Borderlands new home world and how are they worth a billion dollars Borderlands is very popular that's probably how right it's got to be what else do they own yeah I don't understand business aliens home

world is awesome but it's very Niche game yeah yeah totally yeah it's it's no Borderlands No like I don't know if I could play home world now I could play through the first two and love them I don't know if I could play new home World well you know who aren't in trouble is remedy they are [ __ ] loving life right now yes and uh so they they've got sequels promised up the wazo including uh the max pain remakes which they have now announced will be one single game or packaged as a single game so perhaps you still play through the missions of one and then two but it will do chapters like a single game or the first two games yeah well they don't own the rights

of rockar own three okay nothing to do with yeah but no I think I think what they'll do is they'll they'll sell it together but they'll still be their own two separate things like they but they look and feel the same with the same controls presumably yeah but you just one that that fits into your um philosophy Luke of two games at the start and end of one console cycle that feel very different yep I'm looking forward to have they given a date yet cuz I want to play it they said 2025 so I mean that's a very loose date but that is next year so that could be anywhere between a year and a year and a half away yeah presumably yeah I've been playing a remedy game which officially I'm

officially further in Allen wake than I have ever been the first one correct I'm getting there I'm getting there guys come on I realized I've played the second twice I'm not just going to sit and watch a video I'm going to play the [ __ ] game yeah you put on story story difficulty it is good the the the okay so I clearly I misremembered the thing that made me quit last time cuz I kept saying it was the timber Mill but that's right at the start and I was like yeah I definitely got past this and then I was like no I've done all this before like I vaguely remember this and then I got to the bit where you come across the bridge which I remember the stuff starts flying at you I knew i' done that before and then once you get on the other side of the bridge you jump down and a

possessed bulldozer comes in and I was like when you're in the uh that's what it was oh it's you you're the reason I [ __ ] quit oh now I'm just running from this and but but somehow I guess I don't know if it's because maybe I was taking two long breaks last time and I forgot certain mechanics but I had like a flare I had a couple of flare gun charges and and flares and stuff like that and I didn't really have any issues with it so also this is the remix maybe it's easier I don't know but have you also are you playing it through one easy though oh yeah but I probably was last time too well maybe I wasn't first time you would have been normal I reckon we had we had time to play games on back then yeah maybe you might be

right yeah it's just the look the combat is tedious but the story is great the characters are great and just know that when you finish this not super long game you've got an excellent game to come afterwards that just keeps getting better and better and better throughout yeah I'm playing a remedy game at the moment too because I've gone back to control which I abandoned the first time I played it just like I abandoned Alan Wake the first time I a weird game are you enjoying it though this time I am but but I I'm also very mindful of what I wasn't enjoying about at the first time as well um so I I am having to try and uh motivate myself a little bit and control just came out on Game Pass as

well oh that's true yeah I already had it I think but I version now or something I think the ultimate version as well so you can also play the DLC like the Allan Wake experience and stuff which I haven't played and I think I might go and try that after this is it a whole DLC featuring Alan Wake is it I don't actually know I know that there's some Alan Wake Easter eggs in it and I know that at one point in control you walk past somebody's computer and they are playing the game Alan Wake which I don't know how that works because if the game is in the universe and also the character is in the universe um it is also just a game of course and they weren't planning on doing a shared Universe when they made this I am loving the little um Twilight Des what what's

it called the little episode sprs night Springs that's it yeah yeah yeah I'm loving those they were always interesting in Quantum break there's one bit where you walk past a television and that just plays a Alan Wake like a another Alan Wake 2 but this was you know five six years ago before all W 2 was a thing trailer that they they really shot with you know the original cast and everything and Sam lakes in there and stuff too but which is also awesome I love Sam Lake he's just awesome he's almost too awesome it annoy how awesome he is love to get him on the show um in in news that Luke probably

called at some point the um he did yeah the new Xbox has leaked and it's got no disc drive although I did enjoy just to be clear it's still it's not this is not a nextg no another version of the series X this one in thect is white the the main picture for the article confused me because it's just a normal Xbox like the ones we all have Xbox series X with a disc drive and I was like that but they just didn't put the disc drive on the inside but no if you scroll down you can see the photos of the the Prototype I this the first time actually this doesn't look is this a prototype this white one down this is what they should have released day one the series X should have been a displ and have a disc so it means my sister's

going to get an Xbox series X because you're going to give her yours yeah and get this okay wait why you've got one because it's you all right never mind what this he's got two fridges mat as soon as I said it I knew the only thing not fridges Dan they're not fridges they make a Bo with a fan on it they make that abundantly clear it's a cool a box with a fan on it stop the stopped working it's got the same issue as the Xbox 360 had it launch it overheats the only the only thing I wish that they did add with the this new one is I wish they added an extra memory card slot oh yeah oh yeah do they only have one even mine same right yeah yeah I really cheap are those

D cuz I've got an SD car SD you know um Drive hooked up which I can but I can't run yeah series X is so I can run old stuff off it but I don't find it's that necessary anymore I I don't have multiple games going and I switch between them I've got one game Cloud thing too I guess you're not me no you perhaps yeah but surely you play all through one then delete it and then start another one play no i cho and change really okay I don't do that that often I just do still have some on there that I'm like like for example I've got assassin Creed um Valhalla on there and I'm like I don't want to delete that I might go back to it at some point which is ridic ongoing Assassin's Creeds that I don't want to delete I can

just reinstall it if I need to right but I have to wait don't delete and what why you why you might have to wait like half an hour to an hour type of thing yeah like when you've got that each I want to play this you want to play it right play and have you ever done this I don't know if you do this I will sit and watch that [ __ ] progress bar go across rather than just play another game I'll just play another game it goes slow yeah yeah I'd rather just and I don't want to play another game I want to look at the [ __ ] thumbnail for it they have fixed that a little bit they have done a few updates where it doesn't slow down as much as it used to still does slow down but it's not why Asad B like dis IO is that what yeah sh the dis

yeah yeah okay makes sense well yeah digital only one leaked I mean they still don't get to do the game sharing business that you were excited about which they we all could have had on Xbox one but no there some other Xbox news and that is I'm excited for this apparently they're working on a fully native handheld console M people keep saying I know and you've been saying too the future is the cloud but but now people are like I don't think it is I think they're still working on stuff well I I no I did say next Generation okay I I've said there will be another generation of consoles and

then and then it'll be Cloud Microsoft are setting themselves up for cloud that's that is the future but it's not like there's still a while to go there's still countries that can't run off cloud yeah or have food or water so yeah but more so they can't play Xbox games on the cloud so because they can't afford electricity and yeah you don't want to wait for your food you want it now you just watch the progress of your food being digital only food growing from now on and I think if they could do digital only food I'd be into that that's Star Trek the Star Trek up overnight no I don't mean you don't you even taste it I mean just at night they re they fully recharge you just wake up and you just ready to go don't have to worry about sleeping or

breathing or eating yeah and they say oh just but you you lose The Joy of Eating I'll be like [ __ ] The Joy of Eating this sounds exactly like something Elon Musk would invent like right up his alley it's like come and talk about it on the podcast with us yeah and he say we probably have it next week and it'll be like 10 yeah I think remember when like the PSP was out and I think there was talk about an Xbox handheld in but then the PSP didn't do well the video was a bit and then they sort of went and then the switch came out yeah and you've got the steam deck and now you've got all these other things that are coming out and their handheld is now back on table and I think Microsoft going we should probably get in on that yeah yeah handheld Revival a l play actually ever

released that handheld they we had reported on a couple of years ago or did that is that still in development the one that just lets you remotely use your PS5 you can get PS they're out of they were out of stock cuz I was considered getting one and I'm glad I got the g-cloud instead apparently you can you can do the PlayStation 5 thing on this but it's clunky and you like for some reason it's got like an on-screen display it's like it's meant for Android phones or something and so right yeah and you what three PlayStation 5 games uh I've got a bunch because I did have a membership it's kind of like gold I think so I think I've got oh yeah a few yeah but yeah yeah you're right not as many as my Xbox but no look if they release this I'm buying it because I'm now starting

to like the handheld stuff when I'm out at home I'm definitely still playing this is going to be the price of a console though you could get yourself a cloud handheld and and then just play it as you would yeah the only reason for that is is when I'm out and about you don't have internet I won't have internet ah sure or if you do I'm going to use a hell of a lot of data to play the game game yeah yeah yeah well I know we already talked about this and you mentioned earlier Dan I was thinking I wouldn't be able to use this without internet but you can you just can't play Xbox games obviously but you can do all the Retro stuff and yeah um yeah and like I could play all yeah anything you andm yeah MH yeah look my got all myiga

games on here yeah it's great if I was a flight I could still do that yeah um I know I think you might want to look you I think you might be able to play Xbox games still is yours a stream Mone or do you install the games no you don't install stream don't you also get the option to go hey this is my home computer thing and it work offline with game for like a month at a time without having to reconnect so when I'm yeah no this does defin have the horsepower to do that no way no I need to buy a power brick for my trip oh get one of those fancy anchor um what's that technology G technology little charges uh they're little but they're like the same oh the same juice as like a big one used to be

oh no no I mean I'm getting a power bank back oh okay well get anchor one of them too they're also or there's one Nightcore is the one everyone night cool name cuz it looks like a it's like um it's it's very small I think it's the smallest high capacity battery and it's looks cool as carbon fiber oh okay that's the one I wish I had gotten but I got justify buying another one uh 20 no there's another one I saw that's double the size for a little bit less I don't care about how they look yeah yeah NB 10,000 is the one I'm thinking of there MB 10,000 yeah it's only like a 10,000 Mah I'm looking at a 40 Mah oh all right um look we have been we talk about

Christopher Nolan a lot um but we're going to have to change the way we talk about Christopher Nolan because pretty soon he's going to be Sir Christopher Nolan Sir Christopher for contributions toil no just him him and his wife as well contributions to film no he doesn't do anything he makes you think that's not he doesn't tell you the end of the story for services to well maybe once he starts doing that they'll give him more than a Knighthood he'll be a duke or something the Earl of Oppenheimer it's crap so yeah he's going to be Sir Christopher no which obviously doesn't mean a whole lot these days but pretty neat good on him it's [ __ ] neat man do you have to be

briti United yeah it's all right no it's all right I'm still I'm still in the running I think you can get an oh no cuz you're yeah you can get an OB I think or you can there's a couple of things you can still get that but you can't get the Knighthood okay yeah no I'm I'm still a full British citizen so I'm good you still could you've just now all you've got to do is contribute in some way to film apparently to any to anything I've just got to make people think I've got to annoy Luke I do that all the time come on come on your majesty is it is it the king that decides this who decides who gets they just do denting it's the government that decides who gets it the government because I was actually someone anymore they're saying oh it's terrible that the the prince decide like

they decide do they go no they don't decide they just do it no they just yeah the New Year's honors list and of ceremony the starswood oh yeah like it's a panel that decides who can do it after they get money yeah I know I know someone who got kned um they Danish so they got kned in Denmark not in Viking Knight they're they're going to call them sir now although they're like please don't call me sir I'm mate I would insist on being called Sir you know what I mean like i' I'd be going up going look it only says Mr Mrs M I'm a knight so where's my [ __ ] thing

um but I was saying to Le like if the king of Denmark gets into trouble do you have to like go and fight he's like maybe I'll look into that it's good yeah should have looked into that before he yeah get yourself a horse but I wonder if if after this happens the next film will say written and directed by Sir Christopher Nolan like is he going to put it on there I re would if you agree to do it you're G to start throwing that out there I mean he already has the word Christ in his name so you know I mean he didn't name himself he's going to capitalize the Christ did Sir Christ oh over an yes um and just in other film news just this briefly lle remember I talked about

I know you've seen it Dan Dan you SE Luke you've seen uh June part two yet obviously oh yeah yeah y yep all over it um Steven Spielberg said the um the sandworm scene is one of his favorite pieces of Cinema which is quite a compliment it is yep scene the the riding of the sandworm scene you mean that that yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I think he means the way that they handled how do you get onto that thing yeah yeah yeah how do I [ __ ] one no sorry I mean ride one strikes me as somebody who'd be a dune fan from back in the day so surely I can see why he'd be interest surely he was not making like uh um

Third Kind Close Encounters sure and somebody's like if you heard this [ __ ] book just came out a couple years ago called Jun like what's it about no no interest in any of that stuff yeah [ __ ] hate science fiction don't poo poo Spielberg Luke back in the day he's made some good stuff no better visual Storyteller back in the day and and and if even if you you're like okay well the Indiana Joneses The Originals were good and then they went off the rails like just think about some of the oneoff think about Minority Report think about Close Encounters closing counters is great I know what you're talking about terrible movie have you seen that have you seen that clip of him on uh what's that is it Larry King that

interviewer uh who blows Spielberg's mind cuz he's like he's like your father was a mathematician and your mother was a musician he's like yeah he's like and when the aliens come the only languages they understand are music music and Mathematics and he's like huh I didn't do that on purpose I can I can believe that that can be just a hey that just yeah just reminded me of mentioned Larry King have you seen that clip of um the guy who plays the actor who plays ared on um Community who's in um yeah in Mythic Quest what's his name I can't remember his name I don't know his name but he's also in DuckTales the Animated Series yeah um but he's on Larry King and Larry Kings asking him questions and he goes What's um what's a what's a luxury you

couldn't go without and he's like oh my socks and he's like your socks and he's like yeah I like my socks and he's like come on and he goes all right I don't know coffee and he goes coffee everyone has coffee and he's like I don't know Larry suggest something and he goes I don't know private jet and he goes Larry I'm on duct tail ductal so good yeah yeah we still might be getting that Community movie evidently it's going to be filed it's 100% happening if ask Joe M he's been talking about it but this the thing about Community is the first season of Community is some of the best written television I've ever seen in my life and by the third season it was

embarrassing how bad it was just it just it gets good it gets bad it gets good it gets bad and but still just got that everyone hated Chevy Chase and he hated everyone else and Dan harman's like sex harassing the lead Rider like what Denny py oh that's his name yeah yeah that's not who he was sexually harassing but well yes we don't know we do know do we okay they were they were very my previous statement about not knowing do you you know how that all blew up right it's because he as in Dan Harmon tweeted just after the me to thing yeah good on all these women for standing up to the to the men who were harassing and then she sub tweeted him and said is your Sor is this gonna yeah

include an apology to me who who was that who said that wrer yeah theer one of the lead writers on community cuz I don't know a lot about it but I do recall didn't he like say he actually was oblivious to the fact that he was even doing it and that and then kind of came out he was also saying but I was there was a problem good opportunties how is how is that harassment and she was like well the fact that like if I slept with you you gave me promotions was the harassment I mean I could be wrong about this but I think didn't he come around and and say you know what yeah I I was abusive and I didn't even realize it yeah okay pretty much straight away no not that excuses the behavior because but I do think he

as soon as she called him out on it he was like oh [ __ ] say oh [ __ ] yeah I guess that wasn't okay was it now that now that we kind of have worked out where the the rules are yeah well crafty Got Away Hollywood had different ideas of what the rules were yeah yeah they they could do they could do stuff they did stuff that was different to the classting couch won't let us do anymore the office just isn't as flirty [Laughter] anymore you know where you can get as flirty as you want but with still with consent you can flirt anyone can flirt with me as much as they want I love thetion open consent from now on right come up where is this magical place it's called the Afterparty man and all you
