0:56

this point in time. point

0:58

what happened was, Square and

1:00

Disney in Japan used to

1:02

be in the same office. the

1:04

same office. at one one point, two

1:06

executives, or or one executive from each company,

1:09

each sort of met in the elevator as

1:11

they were just going up to their

1:13

respective floors. going up to one of them was just like, hey. You

1:19

a game in it. Disney And they

1:21

were like, this is a wonderful idea. it.

1:23

And so. like, this is Hearts was born. idea.

1:25

And so genius that is Oh, how

1:27

it's it's like an action an action RPG.

1:29

game where, so it's not turn -based or

1:31

anything like that But it is

1:34

very much like there's a lot

1:36

of stats involved and like you

1:38

level up and things like that

1:40

But it centers around an original

1:42

character named like that, but it centers around on

1:44

an adventure to save his friend who

1:46

and his friend Riku from friend Kairi

1:49

enemy called Riku from a new enemy called The Heartless.

1:51

And he is, yeah, the Heartless are like just

1:53

sort of a manifestation of evil

1:55

in the world. world. It's It's

1:57

a very white white, there are good good

1:59

people. and bad people in

2:01

this story, story, which total

2:03

sense for like a

2:06

Disney for a Disney storyline. is

2:08

a perfect mesh between is

2:10

a perfect and Final Fantasy

2:12

Disney storylines and Final Fantasy Sora

2:14

is joined by storyline. Anyway, SORA

2:16

is joined by who are, uh,

2:18

mages who are majors, no, no, so Goofy is

2:20

a warrior, Donald is a mage. mage.

2:23

And they are are trying to

2:25

figure out what happened to their their

2:27

king, King Mickey, who has gone missing. missing.

2:29

Turns out, out went to fight the Heartless,

2:31

so of course of we're all

2:33

swept up into up into this of of

2:35

good and evil. It's super fun It's

2:38

super fun. And really a really. It's really really

2:40

great. The storyline goes way off

2:42

the rails in later games And

2:44

some extent in the first game the

2:46

first game enemies get introduced that are

2:48

like new factions and new groups

2:50

of people and there's like a

2:52

shadowy like of thing going on

2:54

it's like a gets pretty crazy later

2:56

on going on. It's it like pretty crazy later on,

2:58

but it's like endearingly crazy. So, yeah. King Mark

3:00

is fun. What? I feel like. Just Just that

3:02

whole, well, well, the third third one comes

3:04

out very soon, right? two months, bet?

3:06

It does, yeah. Yeah, January, end of

3:08

January, of 2019. 2019 over over years after

3:10

the last one. That's so crazy

3:12

how long that's been. that's you know,

3:15

they know, they to make it good, I

3:17

guess. We'll just put it that

3:19

way. least it's coming out. it Half

3:21

three. it's coming out half-life three just think that

3:23

this whole, like we do a whole series

3:25

on Kingdom Hearts because it's such

3:27

a weird pairing a weird me. to me That's

3:29

what makes the game the game, yeah, well

3:31

because they're very popular. well. Because

3:33

they're very popular. Yeah. So,

3:36

yeah, okay. Number nine is

3:38

Tekken 5. I don't know much

3:40

a lot about Tekken know 5,

3:42

a lot it's a 5, but it's

3:44

a fighting game, six, well, shipped six million

3:46

copies and four 4 million in

3:48

Europe, and it was was actually came

3:50

out on in North in North America

3:52

it came out on February 24th,

3:54

2005, is the and this the of

3:56

the few times the North American

3:59

release was the Japanese release. That's That's interesting. Japan

4:01

that came out on March 31st 2005. Is the

4:03

Is the fighting genre like more

4:05

popular in they America? I guess

4:07

they weren't that far apart, it's

4:09

a little over a month. over a

4:11

I don't know. I don't know

4:13

much about fighting games, games like of

4:15

your your street fighter to and mortal combat like that's kind

4:17

of, the and Super Smash Brothers, I

4:20

guess, is is of my of my

4:22

wheelhouse. but But tech and

4:24

five. was very popular for the PlayStation

4:26

2. They had 32 playable characters,

4:28

and I believe and of those were new

4:31

characters, but only six of them were playable.

4:33

I don't know. were I'm assuming

4:35

one of them was know. I'm assuming

4:37

That's what I read was like

4:39

guy boss. That's what introduced this crush system

4:42

the crush system, is how... is

4:44

how it how vulnerable your character is

4:47

while they're attacking like can a

4:49

person can a person your attack attack? Essentially while

4:51

you're like mid -kick or whatever

4:53

And so there were certain times

4:55

where you would be very be very

4:57

say you're doing a high kick say

4:59

you're If they like. kick if they like

5:01

the leg leg Johnny Like they would be able to would

5:03

be able to like throw your character

5:06

off because you were kicking high and

5:08

they were kicking low low essentially So that was

5:10

what the crush system was. Now

5:12

this game was re -released later

5:14

on for PSP on for PSP and a, 3

5:16

in a was called called dark which

5:18

which so intense. And they they add more character stages

5:20

and content there content there But too. But Tech and Five, mean,

5:22

it's a great fighting game. I never really really

5:24

I don't play a lot of fighting games.

5:26

I don't know much about it, but. about And

5:28

from my research, my research, it seemed like, hey, if you were

5:30

if you were a Tekken fan, the you hey,

5:32

Tekken 5, that's the way it is. the like, hey, if

5:34

you were a Tech and Fan, you of Tech and Five, it's

5:36

the popular. you got Tech and game it's like, it's like,

5:38

it's like, Yeah, it's definitely isn't it

5:40

one of the ones like, it's like like, it's

5:42

like, it, it's like, it's like, it's like, yeah. Yeah, it's

5:45

like, it's like, like, it's like, mean like, many iterations

5:47

of the game have there been

5:49

there's been like, like I I think this so this

5:51

is so this is I have it pulled up right here. have

5:53

it They had right here. They

5:55

Tekken and up to tech and

5:57

seven in 2015 and then those

6:00

have updated versions so there was Tekken

6:02

7 faded retribution in 2016 so it

6:04

seems like they come out with a

6:06

Tekken game. and then they make

6:08

it slightly better a year later and they

6:10

come out with another one. so do

6:12

that the street fighter and then the super

6:14

street fighter and the super street fighter

6:16

ultimate. Yeah. Super duper duper fighter Ultra Super

6:18

edition. Yeah. Ultra

6:20

mega hyper remix. Yeah, I

6:22

said, oh. apparently a mobile version came

6:24

out of tech in 2018. I have no idea.

6:26

That's interesting. I I wonder if

6:28

mobile fighting games become a

6:30

thing, but yeah, so check in

6:32

five number nine now number

6:35

eight Tyler number eight Final

6:37

Fantasy 12 shipped six million units, came

6:39

out in Japan in March of

6:41

2006, but in North America it came

6:43

out in October on Halloween of

6:45

2006. is Just a month, like short

6:47

just of a month before the

6:49

PlayStation 3 came out. So it was

6:51

kind of the PS2's swan song.

6:53

I actually have been playing this game,

6:55

well I haven't played it in

6:57

a few weeks, but I am midway

6:59

through playing this game. I'm about

7:01

13 or 14 hours in. I got

7:03

stuck on a boss and I

7:05

need to do some grinding now I

7:08

haven't brought myself to come back to

7:10

it. but this game is like a

7:12

pretty big departure from other Final Fantasy

7:14

games. It does have an open an

7:16

open compared to Final Fantasy 10 which

7:18

sort of closed off the world. But

7:20

the combat is this weird, crazy, like sort

7:23

of MMO kind of thing, where it

7:25

it uses the active time battle

7:27

system. what you're really doing, instead of

7:29

picking individual spells and commands for

7:32

your whole party, which you can do

7:34

if you want to, it has

7:36

a system called gambits where you basically

7:38

say if this happens, then cast

7:40

this spell. And so as the game

7:42

goes on, you get more Gambit

7:45

slots. You're basically programming your party to

7:47

do what you want. And so

7:49

the the in the game doesn't come

7:51

from like necessarily. Inputting

7:54

these commands in manually and thinking every

7:56

single time you do something it's more like

7:58

understanding the fight that you're getting into setting

8:00

up a system that covers almost everything and

8:02

then switching to like a manual mode when

8:05

something unexpected happens or when you need

8:07

to be super precise with something or something

8:09

like that. precise with It makes grinding a little

8:11

bit more fun because you can fun because you can

8:13

of program your party to do the right

8:15

things in all these fights all then you

8:17

can just like walk through the world and

8:19

your team will just fight for you and

8:21

it's, it's. Fun in a in a good way.

8:23

doesn't feel like the game is playing itself is

8:25

you have programmed it to do that for

8:27

you I really enjoyed it anyway for you. I really enjoyed

8:30

it that's also one of the

8:32

reasons of the reasons, like the game of of.

8:34

playing itself on your strategies. Also, one

8:36

of the reasons I really like

8:38

Final Fantasy reasons I which is a story

8:40

for another day. for another Final Fantasy yeah,

8:43

Final Fantasy 12 cool, sold a lot of

8:45

copies. of It was recently re -released

8:47

as the Zodiac as on PlayStation age and

8:49

PC, 4 and I think it's coming

8:51

to Xbox soon as well, so as

8:53

well. So opinion, I think you should you

8:55

should this one out. I'm probably gonna

8:58

get it. it. I I feel like you

9:00

get me you get me into so many

9:02

games, so I normally play, you know?

9:04

It's the last Final Fantasy I played play you know That

9:06

was so long ago. final fantasy I

9:08

played was your so long ago

9:11

I can I I can be your be

9:13

my guide you'll be my JR on

9:15

yeah, or at least your

9:17

final fantasy least your That's nice shoulder

9:19

that's nice I go play all about all

9:22

about yeah So, I mean, I mean of of

9:24

Final Fantasy XII, highly recommend. So

9:26

did they still have they still Fantasy

9:28

like, cause they're all in a

9:30

different universe, but did they they're all

9:32

9:34

but got all have the of Final

9:36

Fantasy. You and that the Zodiac Oh, yeah. It's

9:38

got You actually pick of Final jobs

9:40

for every character. So and those

9:42

9:48

Mages, all the the classic, like, even some

9:50

in there that are Fantasy Jobs. that I

9:52

haven't ever seen in other Final Final

9:55

Fantasy games, so it's

9:57

pretty cool in the the original

9:59

PlayStation 2 non-Zodiac. version. The the character progression

10:01

is is different. You don't pick jobs,

10:03

you just sort of move through

10:05

a license board, move of a

10:07

more freeform version of the Final

10:10

Fantasy of a more free form Which is

10:12

of of cool, I guess. Yeah. 10

10:14

sphere that's cool. Let me that's again. Yeah,

10:16

10:26

all your time playing J games. You just, no

10:28

10:30

I wake up in the morning, usually on I

10:32

10:34

three hours. 5am And then I go about my

10:36

10:38

I'm just like... I go about my that for

10:40

11:02

the on the list is of Gear

11:04

This is another game. I of talk for so is

11:06

another game game. could talk for

11:08

a so long about this game

11:10

I'm actually playing it unrelated to

11:12

this I'm not like playing it

11:14

for this episode of the podcast

11:16

but I did get the itch

11:18

to go back to play a

11:20

Metal Gear Solid series and so

11:22

I'm currently and so little ways into a

11:24

Gear Solid ways and man it again.

11:26

And man, it is really just, it's a, like, of of...

11:29

It's like a masterpiece in one sense

11:31

and it's like, and Kojima's like,

11:33

like middle finger just to everybody

11:35

who wanted like a sequel to a

11:37

Gear Solid. to Metal Gear so so nuts. so

11:39

what I love about love about the marketing

11:41

for this game is all of the

11:44

marketing, all the commercials, commercials, all the

11:46

box of the game itself. itself shows you

11:48

only you only playing as Snake. It's It's

11:50

like this is, Solid back is back. We're we're to

11:52

do the same thing how much much you

11:54

love Metal Gear Solid? we're going it again

11:56

again, but bigger, right? And like, years like led to believe to

11:58

believe you're gonna play Solid Snake then

12:00

you load up the game you get into

12:02

it You're playing a solid snake and you

12:04

play at like through a whole sneaking mission

12:06

like Metal Gear Solid You're like this is definitely

12:08

Metal Gear Solid 2 and playing a solid

12:10

snake is a new mission Everything feels cool

12:13

and then you finish that mission and it drops

12:15

you into playing as a new character

12:17

Who not mentioned anywhere. Like is the

12:19

first time you're hearing anything. If you've

12:21

been following the rumors about this game

12:23

for months before it came out, you've

12:25

never heard of this character. His Raiden,

12:27

and he is also a sneaky

12:29

person Yeah Yeah,

12:32

and you go, like the storyline

12:34

is there's like this, in the first

12:36

chapter of the game where you

12:38

play a solid snake, you're like moving

12:40

through a tanker because the plans

12:42

for metal gear have been sold on

12:44

the black market. so you got

12:46

to get on this tanker and get

12:48

some pictures of the new metal

12:50

gear that's on it so that you

12:52

can, you get out of there and figure

12:54

out a way to stop it, I guess, whatever.

12:56

what happens is, things go bad and the tanker

12:58

sinks and Solid Snake is assumed to be dead.

13:02

So it's a tanker, so it's got a

13:04

full of oil and stuff like that, so

13:06

there's this whole like cleanup thing that has

13:08

to happen, so they build these like a

13:10

clean -up plant facility to clean

13:12

it all up. And a couple

13:14

of years later, a group

13:16

of Rogue like magical people, this is where

13:18

Metal Gear Solid gets weird, because all these

13:20

people have like magical powers, all the bad guys

13:22

always have magical powers, and they've taken over

13:25

this big shell they've got like the president and

13:27

they're like, cool Raiden has to go in

13:29

there and save the world. and And Raiden has

13:31

never done a mission before that was not

13:33

in - virtual reality but he thinks

13:35

he's awesome because he's done everything virtual reality

13:37

So he's like super good at being

13:39

a sneaky person. I'm so good at being

13:41

sneaky Yeah And so

13:43

then the structure of the game goes like back

13:45

to how the first game was, which I think

13:47

is very deliberate as Kojima is saying, basically saying

13:50

to the audience like, so you wanted a sequel,

13:52

huh? You wanted to do the same thing again,

13:54

huh? But like kind of different. well here it

13:56

is, same thing again, but kind of different. And

13:58

it's like the whole story. is sort set

14:00

of set up like that until you

14:02

reach a breaking point and then it like

14:04

goes way off the rails in a

14:06

good way like super fun Like super fun. Yeah,

14:08

it's really, really great. This game

14:10

is first things I of the first

14:12

things I can find in literature

14:15

literature the talks about the concept

14:17

of memes, I and I don't

14:19

mean that in the in like the internet

14:21

cat like I mean that in I

14:23

mean that in like your your your

14:25

cognitive thoughts is not the, memes.

14:27

is this term, like they didn't

14:29

invent this term, Richard Dawkins

14:31

invented this in his

14:33

1976 book called The Selfish

14:35

Gene. It's basically when you can

14:37

you genes down to your can pass

14:39

your genes down to your children, right? But you

14:41

also pass your memes down, which is your thought processes

14:44

your your traditions and those kinds

14:46

of things that aren't like genetic,

14:48

but still. genetic, Uh still. get passed

14:50

on Metal Gear Gear Solid 2

14:52

deals with that I lot. the ending

14:55

remember the ending to this game

14:57

just totally blowing my mind the

14:59

patriots take over everything and like over everything of

15:01

run the world and like it's the world

15:03

and it's super crazy old brain just -old

15:06

brain just exploded when I

15:08

finished this game. really, you've just sold this game

15:10

just sold this game to me like I

15:12

remember seeing the packaging for this game and being

15:14

like oh, that game looks so cool, but I

15:16

I know at all what it's about. it's about. And

15:18

oh man, also the title just

15:20

just of of Liberty. It sounds so

15:23

and crazy, you know the

15:25

and of you know. The Sons of

15:27

it's super yeah, it's super it,

15:29

that's awesome. Truly love it. I'm ready for

15:31

the next one. All right, what number

15:33

are we on now? did time. All

15:35

right, what number are we on now? We did this Theft

15:38

Auto six. Grand Theft

15:40

Auto 3. yes. so So this.

15:42

This is the game that started it all.

15:44

This game started the Grand Theft Auto the

15:46

as we know them now, which is 3D. them

15:48

now, You're in is City. in Liberty

15:50

City. around, you're killing anyone you see

15:52

if you want to. you see if not, if

15:54

you don't, you have to. If you don't,

15:56

you don't have to. to. You don't have to. The game,

15:58

so the The reason - Rockstar decided to

16:00

do. this as a

16:03

3D world. is because the

16:05

PlayStation 2, again, super computer for

16:07

the time. know, everyone's like, oh

16:09

man, look at this thing. And

16:11

also DVDs. where it's now

16:13

what they played. So they could make

16:15

this big game world. Oh, and they

16:17

could fit it on the And they

16:19

could fit it on a disk. So

16:21

what's funny though is the DVDs ended

16:23

up not being the problem. The problem

16:25

was just general compression because the PS2

16:27

only had 32 megabytes of RAM. Wow.

16:29

So they're going fill that up. you

16:32

know, with like the music I know this and

16:34

I read is they were talking about how they

16:36

had problems with the radio stations, like getting that

16:38

to all to like how are we going to

16:40

fit all this music? of a

16:42

radio station that's essentially like, How

16:45

long are those like six hours each, Probably

16:47

each radio station is just six hours

16:49

of straight audio going through. Like

16:51

how are we gonna fit all of

16:53

this in there? So their team had

16:55

to make new compression techniques and essentially

16:57

that was a big part of the

16:59

design was making it all fit in

17:02

the game. Liberty City originally was

17:04

supposed to be like a post

17:06

industrial Midwest/East generic city, end quote.

17:08

That's like what the designer said

17:11

it was supposed to be. And

17:13

then they realized they're like, you know what? We

17:16

should just, we could do so much more

17:18

with New York City. And then they dove full

17:20

on into the East Coast. Like the game

17:22

has three islands. and you essentially can jump,

17:24

you unlock each island as you

17:26

go along. So there's Brooklyn. and then,

17:28

I don't know the of the islands of

17:30

New York. Brooklyn. Queens and

17:32

then Manhattan, which is like

17:34

their commercial. district. And

17:37

so the GAME

17:39

itself is trying to

17:41

be like, it's definitely the way

17:43

it was described in the thing I

17:45

read. was cross

17:47

between a gangster movie. and

17:50

an RPG. And And

17:52

I think they kind of nailed it. There weren't a

17:54

lot of RPG elements Like I don't think you could

17:56

like level up anything in this game at all really

17:58

you just get better guns as you go

18:00

along. along. Yeah. But the one The one

18:02

thing I thought was really interesting

18:05

interesting is, who is the name, Sam Hauser, who

18:07

the design team. was on the design

18:09

team. He a major influence influence

18:11

of Zelda series. of Zelda

18:13

series. Oh, because Zelda was kind

18:16

of like an open world, which

18:18

is sort of what GTA 3

18:20

was. is sort of was inspired by Yeah.

18:22

Like, and he was inspired by the and the

18:24

movie Good you seen and the I have

18:26

not seen you seen heat? Have you seen heat?

18:28

easily one of the greatest, like, shootout

18:31

scenes scenes in a movie? they rob a where

18:33

they rob a bank in this city center. is

18:35

famously running around famously running around with like

18:37

a giant rifle like hair blowing blowing in

18:40

the wind, you know, just your classic, your

18:42

classic Val Kilmer action hero, you know?

18:44

you know there are scenes in game

18:46

Grand Theft Auto Auto 3 where you're

18:48

essentially like shooting in a shootout with the cops running after

18:50

a shootout with the cops like running after

18:52

robbing a bank and like running through

18:54

the city. And you're like, like oh this

18:56

is the movie heat, That's what this is,

18:59

Like you're playing the movie. And another game

19:01

on this list also has a to

19:03

to other things like that, but. yeah, this game

19:05

is this game is just really good. It

19:07

really blew my mind as a kid,

19:09

this. playing this. the the stories were great

19:11

where you'd have have vignettes of of cutscenes in

19:13

up the mission. setting up the then you go,

19:15

you see that yellow dot? see You gotta go

19:18

to that yellow dot, you know? to that yellow dot, you

19:20

know? many feelings. feelings through this. This game, so good.

19:22

good. It's a great game and it really

19:24

introduced sort of the sort of the open the

19:26

the modern notion of open notion of open

19:28

the world the world like we got so

19:30

many open -world games after this that we're

19:32

all kind of trying to do the

19:34

same of similar things but in like

19:37

a fantasy world or like this game

19:39

was just so or like this game was just

19:41

so hugely impactful and like it

19:43

great influence on on

19:45

game like like Almost every game that

19:47

comes out now, you can trace parts

19:49

of it parts of Grand Theft Auto oh yeah,

19:51

nailed that and made that. that and made

19:54

that a that you should strive for for. Oh,

19:56

mean we wouldn't what we wouldn't have

19:58

like any have like any of the Like,

20:00

I'm thinking thinking, like, game series, like, Far

20:02

Cry is a first of that of

20:04

that. Assassin's Creed. The new Spider-man,

20:07

Red Dead, obviously. But, obviously. just, yeah, it's so it's so when

20:09

you think you think about it. It's crazy

20:11

that it's only number six. I would think

20:13

this would be in like the top

20:15

three. think this would be in, but I think. top three.

20:17

But I was the first one and the

20:20

genre got so huge so huge. in the next couple

20:22

couple they just sold so much more because

20:24

people so they knew about it. So, and by

20:26

the time people were kind of figuring out

20:28

how great Grand Theft Auto was, were

20:30

they were probably already ready to

20:32

release Grand Theft Auto Grand Theft just was

20:34

they were probably this game, and I to release

20:36

one, your character doesn't speak, right? So it's does

20:38

not speak. oh Does not speak, yeah. Do you

20:40

know his name? you're I believe

20:42

in this His name is character doesn't

20:45

speak right? No he does not speak. Do

20:47

knew his name. name is Claude? you go, peace

20:49

of trivia, because he never speaks. his name. Man,

20:52

Tyler, you are a Tyler, a wealth of

20:54

a bank game wealth of I

20:56

game knowledge. right off the dome. So it's a

20:58

off the dome crap in my head. All

21:00

my head. beautiful All these

21:02

beautiful, beautiful facts. right, you ready for has

21:04

a cameo a in San Andreas, too, I

21:06

think. I don't know if he speaks

21:08

in that cameo or not, but or

21:10

pretty sure he's in there somewhere. Man,

21:13

I'm going to Google that right after

21:15

this, though. I'm going Google that right for the next

21:17

one? though, Number five? Okay, you're

21:19

ready for Fantasy one? 10. So

21:21

it shipped 8 million it shipped which units,

21:23

which is more than there so there's

21:25

a little bit of a decline. think

21:28

- Tyler, real quick. I I just counted.

21:30

Final Fantasy 10 is I just screwed up

21:32

the screwed up the number. Dang it! Number 6. Number 6. Wait, do

21:34

we have 10 on six. What if do we have

21:36

10 on this list? What if

21:38

we went too far and the 11

21:40

on the list? don't I know if

21:42

I counted it right. Don't worry, I'll

21:44

count it right now while you

21:46

go. Okay, great. Final Fantasy

21:48

10, number 5 or

21:50

six 6 is, so so

21:53

yeah, shipped eight million units. units

21:55

more than 12s. How how many

21:57

units did 12 did 12

21:59

ship? So a little bit of a dip. bit of a

22:01

dip. lot I think a lot of that can

22:03

be attributed to to like 3 being very close

22:06

to launching and it was like, why would

22:08

I buy I buy a game? game? I to save

22:10

all my money for this PS3, right? right? But

22:12

Final Fantasy Fantasy my is my second favorite Final

22:14

Fantasy after Final Fantasy VII, which is my favorite.

22:16

favorite. and just barely above Final Fantasy XIII,

22:18

I know I know a controversial opinion. I

22:20

love Final Fantasy XIII I love Final Fantasy 13, fight Fantasy

22:23

So Don't fight Tyler though, because if you

22:25

fight Tyler, fight it'll be though, hit you you

22:27

be a pause and you gotta select

22:29

your move and then you hit him. It

22:31

takes a long time. be a

22:33

pause really long time. By the way, I was

22:35

wrong. It's definitely move That was my bad. hit him.

22:37

It takes a long time. It's a real long time. By

22:39

the okay was wrong. It's definitely number five. over

22:41

again 10. Ship, okay. Finally did a lot

22:43

of of things brought a lot of

22:45

new things to the final to

22:47

series Because it was the first

22:50

final fantasy on the PlayStation it was the

22:52

first they had this on the could

22:54

fit so much more stuff in

22:56

there The biggest thing was probably

22:58

how it was fully voice acted

23:00

It was the first fully voice

23:02

acted Final how it was better or for

23:04

worse I want to settle this

23:06

right now the meme of the

23:08

The laughing scene where you're like, look at

23:10

how bad the voice acting is in

23:12

this game. And settle this scene of Titus and

23:14

laughing scene, going, ha. I ha, ha, ha, ha. now.

23:16

That laugh to this right now. be That laugh

23:18

is supposed to be bad. It makes

23:20

sense in context because Yuna is explaining to

23:22

Titus how when she feels bad, she

23:24

forces herself to laugh. And so that's what

23:26

they're doing there is they're forcing themselves

23:28

to laugh. That's why it's bad. That's why it's

23:30

bad. Okay. You heard it first here folks. Tyler. I've never seen you,

23:32

I've never seen you so passionate about something in

23:35

this moment. I about that up about people point to

23:37

it as it like a bad thing and

23:39

it's actually really It's a very touching scene

23:41

in context. I really like that scene. I I

23:43

it it too. So some of some of the stuff

23:45

that I see 10 did differently, there's differently. The no open

23:47

world, the game is very linear. bit more Some

23:49

of the levels are a little bit more

23:51

open than others, but for the most point, A

23:53

you're just kind of running from point A

23:55

to point B. point B. It got rid of

23:57

the pre -rendered backgrounds A to point A eight, and

23:59

nine. that pretty cool but cool, but ultimately, when

24:01

you play them now they don't

24:04

look super great. look looks pretty good Ten

24:06

the background can move and stuff good.

24:08

a little bit more the instead of

24:10

having like a 3D character on

24:12

top of a 2D background. bit more 3D,

24:14

system was completely turn -based so no

24:16

more on time battle stuff what it

24:18

had was a battle system called the

24:20

conditional time. conditional turn no

24:23

conditional turn based, I think, time

24:25

battle. where the moves that you do you do. will

24:27

determine determine turns many turns it takes before you

24:29

can attack again. on And if you look

24:31

on the right side screen when you're in

24:33

a battle, you can see, see, oh, if I

24:35

pick this move, here's how the next like

24:37

10 turns will look. And so it so you how it

24:39

of shows you how it changes based on

24:41

that. So you can sort of strategize around like

24:43

this big move that's gonna make it so

24:45

that you can't attack for a while or

24:47

do I use a bunch of smaller moves

24:49

that I'll be able to attack more. It's

24:51

very fun in that. sense And also there's no

24:53

sense of like you can sit and you can sit

24:55

and think about your moves for as long

24:57

as you want to you can you can

24:59

do in other Final Fantasy games because there

25:01

is a way to to the game pause

25:04

when it's someone's turn turn, but

25:06

I just find that to be be interesting, and

25:08

I and I really... I really like this

25:10

game. The character character progression is very because it

25:12

it has called the called the sphere grid

25:14

move you move through the sphere grid

25:16

as you gain experience points, gain sphere

25:18

levels and every sphere level allows

25:20

you to allows you another node on the

25:22

sphere grid the there are a lot of

25:25

points where you can go down

25:27

a different path a different every character can

25:29

learn every other other moves in the

25:31

game. If you work long enough and

25:33

hard enough, you can move around the

25:35

entire sphere grid with every character character

25:37

everything on everybody and that is just

25:39

is just. Absolutely to me. to me. It's

25:41

actually cool that you can do that. do that.

25:44

like people in Skyrim in Skyroom

25:46

that all their skills and

25:48

then reset them. skills and then

25:50

reset so That's crazy. It's so nuts.

25:52

Yeah, that is super incredible to

25:54

me to me do stuff like that.

25:56

stuff like that. For me, was this was

25:58

the most emotional. in all Final

26:00

Fantasy. I think the voice acting and

26:02

the story and the it at the right

26:05

time it my life time know, in my life

26:07

one gets me, the ending gets me

26:09

every single time. It's very, very

26:11

good, very sad. single time, it's very highly recommend

26:13

it. It's on But I it's on PlayStation

26:15

3, it's on PlayStation 4, it's on

26:17

Steam, 2, and it's also coming to

26:19

Xbox as well. So you can play

26:21

this thing anywhere now. coming I can

26:23

cry. well, so and you can cry at

26:25

the thing If you don't cry at And I

26:27

you're a monster. at the then when I

26:30

get to the ending, I can pause the

26:32

game and I can open up a up

26:34

video chat with you, Tyler, and you

26:36

can watch me cry. and you can watch me cry. Yeah,

26:38

together. We could watch it together. to do. We could

26:40

watch it it only counts with some tissues together.

26:42

So it only counts bowl of

26:44

popcorn to cry Just right

26:46

old bowl of for number to cry

26:49

into. You ready for Auto

26:51

Yeah. Grand Theft Auto is

26:53

my my favorite grand theft

26:55

Auto game and my favorite PS2 game

26:57

hands down. I I also bought this

26:59

on PC at one point.

27:02

I love this game so much.

27:04

So so much. took took- iPhone on

27:06

now. It's on everything now, it's on

27:08

yeah, I think Oh yeah, I well, I don't want to

27:10

get there that yet because we're not quite there yet,

27:12

but there that yet, because we're not quite

27:15

there yet, but yeah. This game, They

27:17

took that Grand Theft Auto Grand

27:19

Theft Auto 3 then they and then What

27:21

I think is the perfect

27:23

piece of satire. satire. Like this

27:25

game gets the gets movies and movies and

27:28

culture and just completely flips

27:30

it on its head. And it

27:32

still has still has lot of

27:34

political humor from like the time

27:36

it came out. It's sold,

27:39

I should mention it came out it shipped

27:41

mention million copies in the world.

27:44

And it came out on

27:46

October came out 2002 27 North

27:48

America. And and Oh man, you

27:50

you play as Tommy Versetti,

27:52

he's he's like he's he's an 80s, he's

27:54

an Italian mobster. New York, or

27:56

York or City, I I guess, technically,

27:58

and and then he... to Vice City to

28:01

kind of start a new. And Vice City

28:03

is kind of like a parody of Miami,

28:05

right? Oh, it's, yeah, it's a parody, oh

28:07

yeah, total parody of Miami. And it's just

28:09

everything about it. So now there's like boats

28:12

you're driving around and stuff, it's like, you

28:14

just feel like you're Don Johnson and Miami

28:16

Vice, you know, who doesn't want that? It's,

28:18

and then also, again, to the whole nods

28:20

of like movies of like movies and culture,

28:23

there is a mansion shootout from Scarface. Love

28:25

it. That and he's like shooting you're like

28:27

shooting at the guys in cover and it'll

28:29

be like Tommy Vassetti remember the name and

28:31

then you're like shoot your shotgun over the

28:34

banister. It's just it's such a good game.

28:36

There's also I think there was one scene

28:38

where you would walk into an apartment complex

28:40

and there'd just be like a bloody chainsaw

28:42

on the ground and that's like an homage

28:45

to another 80s gangster movie as well. But

28:47

the one thing about this game. that bothers

28:49

me. And it's only because I was very

28:51

bad at it, is there is a mission

28:54

where you control an RC car and it

28:56

is one of the hardest missions in any

28:58

video game and it drives me crazy every

29:00

time. Is it an RC car or an

29:02

RC helicopter? I can't remember now, but it's

29:05

one of those two things and it is

29:07

just, oof, oof, it's so tough. But yeah,

29:09

this game, I want to replay this game

29:11

now that I'm talking about it, it, it's

29:13

so great. your cast of characters is great

29:16

too and then you're playing as someone that

29:18

you betray you and then you're just like

29:20

it's just I think at one point you're

29:22

you're dealing drugs out of an ice cream

29:24

truck or something yeah for the Haitian for

29:27

the Haitian gangs around and the other side

29:29

it is also again the game is split

29:31

up into islands so but it looks very

29:33

much like Miami mixed with some like Florida

29:35

Keys nods and then like the center of

29:38

island part is where like the golf course

29:40

and country club is and oh at one

29:42

point this also I think introduced the buying

29:44

properties you could buy properties in this one

29:46

and you could like own a a

29:49

nightclub, and you just

29:51

walk over the nightclub

29:53

icon and it would

29:55

fill up your inventory

29:57

with money. your inventory with money.

30:00

Yeah, so so you go

30:02

get a bunch of

30:04

money of go buy more

30:06

stuff. It was great.

30:08

This game. It was great.

30:11

This game, so good. Like that's the thing

30:13

the thing about this list is I feel like we've

30:15

had lists in the past where we're the past where

30:17

I don't know much about this game

30:19

this one game. This one, all bangers, The only only

30:21

game I'm probably unfamiliar with is Tech

30:23

and Five. And the and the rest of

30:25

the games on this list are just

30:27

are just... All amazing in in their

30:29

own this could be lot of these games could be

30:31

in a top be in top 10 games list I

30:33

feel like like Oh sure I mean there's there

30:35

is a strong argument for a game like

30:37

the Grand Theft Auto series in general to

30:39

just be like to just be ever. series

30:42

yeah, yeah, they're so good, and I know they have

30:44

a lot of problems with of people

30:46

upset and all that jazz, but they're

30:48

all that jazz, but they're just perfect games really just

30:50

so and also the the shooting was

30:52

great in this one and like

30:55

just the movement and everything like like

30:57

For an older an and you're playing it now you're like oh this

30:59

is just It's just put together

31:01

really, really well. like, oh, this is

31:03

just, it's just put together really,

31:05

our game Grand See

31:07

what I did there?

31:09

4 is our game number 4. See what Oh

31:12

gosh I really need to make

31:14

sure I number these next

31:16

time because I I 3. Oh handle

31:18

it really need to make sure I number point

31:20

seven six million copies. I Oh

31:22

shipped that many copies It

31:24

came out in Japan on December

31:26

28, 2004. That's the earliest date

31:28

it came out out. while we're going to

31:30

talk about another We're going to talk game,

31:32

actually, can I Turismo game? together? can

31:34

I just do these together? of go

31:36

off of go off Yeah, just two together,

31:38

yeah. Yeah, together. Yeah. Okay, is Gran

31:40

Turismo Terismo And as you remember, Gran

31:42

Turismo 3a spec was Gran Turismo

31:44

2000. Terismo 2000. revamped and

31:47

And this one sold 14.89

31:49

million copies and it came

31:51

out on April out on

31:53

2001 in Japan. 2001 in Japan. Now

31:55

Grand Theft Group, well Grand Charismo 3 had really

31:57

cool with it cool with it where so

32:00

actually worked with Logitech to create a

32:02

steering wheel and pedals to work with

32:04

this game and my brother had that

32:06

steering wheel and pedals and we played

32:08

this game so much like it was

32:11

like having an arcade in your house

32:13

it was so cool yeah and so

32:15

like the way it worked is the

32:17

steering wheel had like Like it had

32:20

like an attachment to like sit on

32:22

your lap perfectly so it was like

32:24

you're driving kind of like a go-kart

32:26

in a way like it would just

32:29

rest on your legs and then you

32:31

could put the pedals anywhere on the

32:33

ground so if you're sitting on like

32:35

a sofa it's like you're driving a

32:38

car essentially it was perfect and yeah

32:40

it was so fun and with it

32:42

because Grand Teresa was all about this

32:44

like realistic Engine for driving a car

32:47

like cars are going to respond differently

32:49

based on how they are as the

32:51

game is designed like it's a simulation

32:53

more than anything And so we would

32:56

just be driving all sorts of cars

32:58

and it felt like you were driving

33:00

You're like I kind of know what

33:02

it's like to drive a shelby. Was

33:05

that right? Probably not but as a

33:07

kid you think you're right You know

33:09

like I'd never own this car in

33:11

my life, but this is probably what

33:14

it drives like in real life right?

33:16

Yeah, it's a The game though grant

33:18

and we're gonna go into grantorismo for

33:20

in a second but grantorismo 3 a

33:23

spec had Really good graphics because of

33:25

PlayStation 2 but because of those really

33:27

good graphics They had to cut down

33:29

a lot of features so grantorismo 2

33:32

had 650 cars grantorismo 3 only had

33:34

180 cars, which is a pretty big

33:36

drop You know, it's going to happen.

33:38

Sounds like way too many cars if

33:41

you ask me. Oh yeah, you know,

33:43

and I mean, I wouldn't be able

33:45

to tell the difference. There's some car

33:47

nerd out there. It's just like, oh

33:50

man, they only have 180 cars. I

33:52

can't handle it. Now, grandeur is before

33:54

though. They must have figured something out

33:56

because green. was was huge,

33:59

had it had 708

34:01

cars, eight 80 80 different

34:03

those cars, and

34:05

51 for those cars, and 51

34:07

tracks. Wow. it's a big game And now

34:10

now the online mode for Gran Turismo

34:12

4 was taken out. out before

34:14

release, and it later came out

34:16

as its own later came out

34:18

as its own separate game called

34:20

Gran Online. So that's something, but two games,

34:22

mean, I this is when when they,

34:25

Turismo 2, 2 was

34:27

perfecting it? it. I I think,

34:29

then then Gran Turismo 3 3 4 them really getting

34:31

getting this graphics behind them and they're

34:33

just nailing it now. just in the now. They just

34:35

they're in the zone, they know what

34:37

they're doing. pocket, These games are so good. they

34:39

know And they're doing. you have the whole license

34:41

system where you're earning certain licenses to

34:44

drive certain kinds of cars and that's how

34:46

you unlock it. So they want to

34:48

make sure you have the skill level. certain to

34:50

drive the car before you get the car, which

34:52

I think is a really good progression system. It's

34:54

sure you have As far as a game goes, to I think

34:56

they do a really good job of... you get. Kind

34:59

of holding your hand, but not really.

35:01

but let you fail. Oh, how you'll

35:03

fail in those license you You'll just

35:05

crash everything. fail in those that they

35:07

want you to, they know what skills you need to

35:09

learn before. So they really do a good job guiding

35:11

you through the process. you to they know

35:13

And now. you need to learn

35:15

before so game. a

35:17

good job He's so excited.

35:20

through the process And now our number

35:22

one game Are you excited? Oh, yeah It

35:24

is yeah Grand Auto, San Andreas Bea-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-Horns. air

35:26

horn, air horn. I great

35:28

air horns. Thanks. I would

35:30

add air horns in, but

35:32

that was so perfect. I

35:35

don't think I need to.

35:37

Great. So. I don't .33 million

35:39

copies shipped copies America, it

35:41

came out in North America

35:43

on October 26, 2004. Here's

35:45

the weird thing, it came

35:47

out in Japan on January

35:49

25, 2007. on January 25,

35:52

2007. Huh. Yeah. It's a time.

35:54

It's a long time. So. time.

35:56

So this is the GTA. GTA that

35:59

added way. more customization. It came

36:01

out after Grand Theft Auto Vice City.

36:03

It essentially, you could, like in Grand

36:05

Theft Auto Vice City, you could change

36:07

your clothes, but in this one, you

36:10

could change your clothes, you could change

36:12

your hair, you could change your body

36:14

type. Like if you started lifting weights,

36:16

your character would get buffer, like he'd

36:18

become more muscular, and if you stopped,

36:21

he'd become like skinnier, and if you

36:23

ate too much fast food, he'd get

36:25

fat. It was like, it's so great.

36:27

That you would fight in and it

36:29

was like you'd have shootouts between gangs

36:32

and you'd take territory in the city

36:34

So I think your gang is green

36:36

is your color and you slowly try

36:38

to take over the whole city So

36:40

you're you walk in just like go

36:43

in the map and you look at

36:45

San Andreas the city and there'll be

36:47

like green areas and red areas so

36:49

it's kind of like this weird territory

36:52

mode as well like going on within

36:54

the game Which is really cool. And

36:56

my whole kid, I was a kid,

36:58

I was always like, I want to

37:00

take over the whole city and I

37:03

would try and it would just be,

37:05

oh, way too much time. But this

37:07

game, it was essentially Los Angeles, is

37:09

what they had built. And it had-

37:11

It was like three cities, right? It's

37:14

like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Las

37:16

Vegas. Los Angeles, right? And I don't

37:18

remember the names of the Vegas City

37:20

and San Francisco, but again, this is

37:22

like when they were like biggest map

37:25

ever, like you could just drive everywhere

37:27

across. It was so good. This game,

37:29

so great. And apparently you said that

37:31

there was a cameo in this game

37:33

from Claude, from Grand Theft Auto 3?

37:36

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Claude is in

37:38

there. Look this up while you keep

37:40

talking. Okay, so I do remember that

37:42

this game also had like a very

37:44

intense story. Like I think you were,

37:47

you had a crime. you were

37:49

were accused of a

37:51

crime you didn't

37:53

commit, so you had

37:55

to go on

37:58

the run for a

38:00

while, go I remember

38:02

correctly. a while And

38:04

you were going, like,

38:07

correctly and you were over. essentially

38:09

all over Andreas, and

38:11

the car customization in this one.

38:14

in this also new. you You could change

38:16

a lot about the cars cars This is

38:18

the first time they first time shop, I believe.

38:20

the into the Grand Theft Auto into the

38:22

Grand Theft I remember playing

38:24

this one playing this one and feeling

38:27

overwhelmed. Did you play this one and

38:29

feel that way and feel that there's so much

38:31

stuff to do in this game stuff to

38:33

do this game. Yeah, it's nuts. Yeah, they Yeah, they the

38:35

Cluckin Bell also in this one, which is the

38:37

fast food restaurant you would go eat

38:40

at, which I eat at, which I liked. had

38:42

the same great radio the stuff. I also say I

38:44

just stuff. I also say I I actually ate there and

38:46

I never did, but it gave me that feeling,

38:48

you know? And that's what's important. That's what we

38:50

do in video games. me that feeling, you know, and

38:52

this game I remember was really for

38:54

me do a kid growing up when I

38:56

started playing it It introduces you to

38:58

the driving mechanics by you're riding

39:00

away from the police on a

39:03

bicycle. the police on a Do you remember

39:05

that? you're on a BMX bike

39:07

and you're riding through riding through like the

39:09

LA River channels those like those

39:11

concrete canals and you're riding along

39:13

the walls of those and like. chasing

39:15

you. With the cops. Yeah, it's

39:17

really great. It's a. It's a... really

39:19

had this scale to it Grand Theft

39:21

Theft Auto City and Grand Theft

39:24

Auto 3 didn't really have. really have.

39:26

and they were just like really going

39:28

on a massive like we're not we're not

39:30

just doing one we're We're doing

39:32

three cities. We're doing a whole a

39:34

whole a whole there's a Yeah, a

39:36

lot of space between those cities,

39:38

too. Oh, yeah, also Grand Theft Auto Vice

39:40

City had planes in it, Grand Theft

39:42

Auto and City had planes

39:45

in it. the one that introduced this

39:47

one. And motorcycles. and And motorcycles. I

39:49

believe believe this was the one

39:51

that introduced planes and helicopters and

39:53

fighter jets and just all sorts

39:55

of stuff stuff jump into. just jumped

39:57

into. Yeah, because it It was. was.

40:00

It's nuts. It's so crazy. crazy.

40:02

This game, game, I mean - as

40:04

a kid. a kid. I don't know if this is

40:06

my favorite one because I feel like I

40:08

feel like, me me Grand

40:10

Theft Auto Theft such a good, like,

40:12

it's like they ripped a moment

40:14

in time. like they ripped a They nailed

40:16

the vibe. Yeah, they nailed the vibe of mood

40:19

and everything. And this one the

40:21

mood and a full this one was a

40:23

being absorbed into a whole world

40:25

instead of like a moment in

40:27

time. is time. it's almost like a

40:29

second life kind of thing that

40:31

the game's second life, but of thing,

40:33

this second life, you're a criminal

40:35

life, but just running around. in this

40:37

second life, a cool game though. Really cool

40:40

game. I spent more time. I think around. It's

40:42

a my clothes cool really buff more then

40:44

like going to the changing was like living

40:46

my life Like I was living as

40:48

this person just going around the city to the

40:50

clock and like I was actually playing the story missions,

40:52

but oh man, that's what I was

40:54

gonna say about these games. It's so cool

40:56

now the city. And I I didn't

40:58

want to say it before because I to spoil it, but... I didn't

41:01

want Auto San Andreas Grand Theft Auto

41:03

Theft Theft Auto Vice City are all

41:05

41:37

borrow it, I was and then I got stuck on this

41:39

date. want to go on a date And I was

41:41

annoyed. think I just Cause I was like, I don't want to go

41:43

on a date right now. I think I just wasn't in the right mood. you got

41:45

to play a game, play know, a because you gotta be in a

41:47

mood to play a game, and I don't think I was in the

41:49

right mood for it. it And now now that like, maybe

41:51

when I'm done with Red Dead, I'll go back

41:53

and play Grand Theft Auto IV. Is that

41:55

on Auto 4. Is It's gotta be on Steam. It's got

41:57

to be on actually yeah, PC version, I think. We

42:00

should Google it but there was something like I

42:02

think it straight I doesn't work anymore because they

42:04

shut down games work anymore like you might have

42:06

to do some hacks to get it working again.

42:08

Oh So like you might have to do some hacks to

42:11

get it working again. the way to

42:13

play it for But that and keyboard. way to play it

42:15

though like with mouse yeah, it also

42:17

like yeah, it's hard. Yeah, it's I wonder it's

42:19

also if it's also probably backwards

42:21

compatible on consoles. It's gotta

42:23

be. Yeah, probably. Yeah, yeah, but

42:25

yeah Grand Theft Auto San Andreas

42:27

Theft one the number game PlayStation 2 game by

42:30

shipped copies and now we're going

42:32

now we're gonna go into our

42:34

honorable mentions. And Tyler. before I

42:36

do that I do that, I I I got

42:38

Claude info so never speaks in any

42:40

of his appearances. any of his is in

42:42

San is in San San in San owns, he

42:44

which is the San Francisco, that's

42:46

the name of that city, San

42:48

Fierro. He owns a garage. that city

42:51

he is dating owns a garage and

42:53

he is dating races him.

42:55

CJ races him in in San San

42:57

Andreas, and he loses, so so gives

42:59

up his garage to CJ to CJ

43:01

moves to Liberty City with Catalina,

43:04

where they go on a nine -year

43:06

crime spree, ending in Catalina crime

43:08

him and sparking the events of

43:10

Grand Theft Auto 3. him and

43:12

so the Auto San Andreas takes

43:14

place before Grand Theft Auto 3. Oh

43:16

wow it's early Theft of Oh, yeah,

43:19

that's place Yeah Theft

43:21

Auto 3? Yeah it's a 90s but

43:23

I It's like a 90s snapshot

43:25

but I think... I don't think they the the

43:27

as well as they grabbed the 80s,

43:29

or at least at least stereotype of the

43:32

80s, but yeah. but yeah, San Andreas. I will say will

43:34

say Grand Theft Auto Vice City had a

43:36

very distinct art art style, like model style style,

43:38

a little more cartoony than the other ones

43:40

than Theft Auto ones. And a lot of realism

43:42

to it Yeah, which I think was

43:44

real not it. I mean not quite because

43:46

Grand Theft Auto I has pretty crazy realism

43:48

when you see like the cars and everything

43:50

crazy realism when you see Auto. the cars

43:52

and By city like a little more

43:54

and everything. That's to know. I wanted

43:56

a clawed update. That's good that's good another

43:58

another of like trivia from my

44:00

brain. I hope this is actually

44:02

correct. So in Grand Theft Auto

44:04

3, there are no motorcycles. But

44:06

in Grand Theft Auto Liberty City

44:09

stories on the PSP, which came

44:11

out later, it actually came to

44:13

PS2, also, there are motorcycles, but

44:15

Liberty City stories takes place before

44:17

Grand Theft Auto 3. And then

44:19

in Grand Theft Auto 4, there

44:21

are motorcycles. Again, so we've got

44:23

motorcycles in the timeline here, we've

44:25

got motorcycles in Vice City Stories,

44:27

or in Liberty City stories. We

44:29

have no motorcycles in Grand Theft

44:32

Auto 3. And we have motorcycles

44:34

in Grand Theft Auto 4. The

44:36

way they justified this in the

44:38

lore. Liberty City stories and Grand

44:40

Theft Auto 4 motorcycles were outlawed

44:42

in Liberty City. Oh, just not

44:44

allowed. Interesting, I like that. That's

44:46

how they justify it. I mean

44:48

really, they just didn't put motorcycles

44:50

in Grand Theft Auto 3. But

44:52

I thought that was funny. I

44:55

like that though, I think that's

44:57

cool. Yeah. The last thing before

44:59

we move on to our honorable

45:01

mentions, the thing that I have

45:03

noticed is if you want to

45:05

sell a lot of copies of

45:07

copies of a game on PlayStation

45:09

2, you need to start it.

45:11

You need to start the title

45:13

of the game with grand. G-R-A-N.

45:15

Grand Theft Auto, Grand Terrismo, like

45:18

the top four games here are

45:20

all grand. So grand. Yeah. Grandm

45:22

hearts? Yeah, so you just keep

45:24

going, right? Grand in five? Grand

45:26

fantasy? Grinel, Grant, Granel fantasy. Grinel,

45:28

okay, we're having too much fun.

45:30

Grand Gear Solid, Sons of Liberty

45:32

City. I like, I like Greta

45:34

Gear Solid. Just a lady in

45:36

Greta who's a secret agent. I

45:38

like that. Oh yeah, honorable mentions.

45:41

What do you got, Mike? Okay,

45:43

I only have one game on

45:45

this list personally, but this game

45:47

legitimately made me very, very, very

45:49

into the RPG. games and that

45:51

is Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance. Ooh.

45:53

Now Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance was,

45:55

I think it's related to D&D.

45:57

I would have would

45:59

in it, those

46:01

in floating. floating monsters.

46:04

But game was so fun. I bought this

46:06

game on a whim, knowing a not really

46:08

knowing a lot about it, and I ended

46:10

up playing this game. I think I, think

46:12

I, because it's very linear and you you

46:14

just beat it and after like, I think I

46:16

think there's like like or six chapters and

46:18

then they they're each or three hours long. two

46:21

or three hours long. And. I think I through

46:23

this game two or three times three I

46:25

was Like I it and I would up the

46:27

difficulty I would up the It's just it's I very yeah, it's

46:29

just, but I but I, oh man,

46:31

for console, I really dug it. I

46:33

I really liked it a lot. That's awesome. on

46:35

my face? I got a my things? I got

46:37

a few honorable mentions here, so I an

46:39

an honorable mention to the entire Ratchet Clank

46:41

series. series. Those games are those

46:43

games are just 3D platformers with

46:45

an emphasis on weapon combat. they had

46:48

some some of the craziest weapons.

46:50

like was a weapon that turned

46:52

enemies into chickens. into chickens. There's standard,

46:54

like rocket launchers and machine

46:56

guns machine guns really went all in

46:58

the commercials for the series for

47:00

like were like live-action people testing from

47:03

Ratchin and Klenk know, two hilarious results

47:05

every time. Oh, that's funny. time.

47:07

Oh that's funny. So I mean I never those

47:09

games. games. Oh, They're super worth it

47:11

if you ever pick up a you ever pick

47:13

remake of the first the remake of of the

47:15

first one is a really really well done

47:17

game They're all good

47:19

first one is a really, really well done game. trilogy

47:21

on Oh, and they also on PS3 in

47:24

the Ratchet and Clank trilogy collection. on

47:26

forgot to mention, but since we're

47:28

talking about in the we should talk about

47:30

this. Have you? Clank Has that collection.

47:32

I thing come out yet? but

47:35

the remake of about with the first three

47:37

we should I think it came out last

47:39

week. week. Oh, I was thinking I was thinking about

47:41

that because I never, I only the demo of

47:43

Spider-O-1, I heard those games really fun and I

47:45

want to want to be be a real dragon. Yeah, you

47:47

should check it out. it out. I want I

47:49

want to get a to get a PlayStation. I I

47:51

have too many video games in

47:54

my life already life already, though. Yeah, same.

47:56

Yep. Second honorable mention, Jack and Daxer series. The The

47:58

first game is very traditional. feeling 3D

48:00

platformer. It's one of my favorite 3D platformers

48:02

because it just nails like collectathon like that

48:04

banjo-kazooey style. It just. It doesn't do anything

48:07

particularly new, but it just really nails everything

48:09

about it. And there are no loading screens

48:11

in the whole game, which is crazy. And

48:13

then Jack 2 and 3 expanded on that

48:15

by adding in a weapon system that's not

48:18

as robust as Ratchet and Clank, but still

48:20

pretty cool. And they get super dark. The

48:22

first game is like, oh, Cartooni, we're having

48:24

fun, there's some bad guys, whatever. And then

48:26

2 and 3 is like, OK, you've been

48:29

experimented. Silly Billy Billy, you ready for this?

48:31

Yeah. Spiro re-ignited. It came on on Xbox

48:33

1. I can get it on Xbox. Oh.

48:35

It's not just PlayStation only. It's time. Yeah,

48:37

good to know. Okay. Awesome. Continue. I just

48:40

want to let everyone know that. So if

48:42

you want to play Spiro, Xbox or PlayStation,

48:44

you're good to go. You can totally do

48:46

it. It'll probably come out on PlayStation 3.

48:48

and on PlayStation Vida, which the Rattling Clank

48:51

collection is also on PlayStation Vida. So check

48:53

them out, they're great. Next, Metal Gear Solid

48:55

3, which is personally my favorite Metal Gear

48:57

Solid game as a standalone game, because I

48:59

think it's just, it perfectly nails all of

49:02

the mechanics. The storyline is, so this game

49:04

and Final Fantasy 10 are the games that

49:06

make me cry, and I cry every time

49:08

at the ending of Metal Gear Solid 3,

49:10

I think it's so good. You want to

49:13

go to a movie theater with me? And

49:15

you're like, yeah, sure, what are we going

49:17

to go see? I'm like, oh, it's a

49:19

surprise. And then we just sit down in

49:21

an empty theater. And then I just play

49:24

the cutscenes from Metal Gear Solid 3. And

49:26

then the aforementioned final fantasy game. OK. Would

49:28

that make you just cry? Would you just

49:30

open a weep? We would be there for

49:32

a long time. Yes, a lot of cutscenes,

49:35

I imagine. Yeah, those games are. movies with

49:37

some some gameplay in

49:39

between them. So, Metal

49:41

Gear Solid 3, Soled Takes

49:43

place in the Takes place

49:46

not Solid Snake, you

49:48

are not Solid Snake, You are

49:50

he's not Naked in

49:52

the game, it's just

49:54

his name, his in

49:57

is Naked Snake, and

49:59

he is name. His code would

50:01

go on, later go

50:03

on to become he is,

50:05

who You get this

50:08

sort of Darth Vader become

50:10

story get this he is

50:12

a good guy and

50:14

you get to see

50:16

his downfall into becoming

50:19

where he's like, he is a good guy.

50:21

And you get to see super

50:23

great, into Gear Solid 3.

50:25

the Last honorable mention. No

50:28

PS2 collection is is complete without

50:30

guitar hero. You gotta have guitar have Guitar

50:33

Hero, that single -handedly kicked off the musical, the

50:35

plastic the instrument craze of like the

50:37

mid to late 2000s. That's so good. Everybody good,

50:39

everybody loves Guitar Hero. Everyone loves

50:41

Guitar Hero. And the funny part

50:43

is if you go to the

50:45

Buster's and they have those machines, people

50:47

are still playing it. playing it. It's

50:49

still a popular thing. thing.

50:52

I... That rise and fall and fall of

50:54

those musical games is so fascinating

50:56

to me. We gotta do an

50:58

episode on those because should. quick. What was

51:00

was probably five or six years?

51:02

Yeah, they were so or six

51:04

years? like my they were so popular. just was

51:06

putting out more my theory is hero putting out

51:08

more than one guitar hero game a

51:11

year at a certain point. I was

51:13

just like, I can't keep up with

51:15

this. I'm over it. I'm done. Like goodbye. Yeah.

51:17

There's such good games And also. I

51:19

I think because now they have that

51:21

they have that it's actually teaching you to

51:23

play guitar. it's Yeah, that's you to play

51:25

pretty neat Yeah, that's It's pretty good. Soft.

51:27

That it works pretty well for teaching your

51:29

guitar. If you have a setup that doesn't have

51:31

a lot of well lag, which I was trying to

51:34

do it the other night with my guitar, like, I'm

51:36

gonna play this game again and there's like too

51:38

much lag between what I lag, which I heard it, which

51:40

it the other of puts a damper on it. I that

51:42

really does slow you down. to play this

51:44

Hero again, I there's like, I mean,

51:46

mean, this is going to be... It's not

51:48

necessarily Guitar Hero, but it's Rock hero, I

51:50

remember Rock Band. I Rock Band, when it

51:53

came out. it I went to a

51:55

party. party and I And I my my first

51:57

year of college, I came home. home and I

51:59

went to. a party with some old high

52:01

school friends and they had rock band and

52:03

I did nothing but play rock band for

52:06

like six straight hours yeah well I mean

52:08

perhaps having some underage libations but still like

52:10

nothing but I didn't talk to anyone I

52:12

just sang and played guitar and played drums

52:15

with my friends like switching around yeah so

52:17

fun the first rock band game I pre-ordered

52:19

it before it came out because I played

52:21

drums when I was younger and so like

52:24

playing guitar hero was really fun I was

52:26

like oh this is neat but it's like

52:28

what I really want those drum hero right

52:30

and so when rock band was announced and

52:33

it was gonna have a drum set I

52:35

was like instant pre-order I was like 16

52:37

at the time so I had a job

52:39

and I was like all right I'm gonna

52:41

save my Wendy's money I'm buying rock band

52:44

and I pre-ordered it and it's one of

52:46

the I never skipped school in high school

52:48

except to go pick up my rock band

52:50

preorder. I did skip school like, sorry mom

52:53

if you're listening to this, I skipped journalism

52:55

class to go pick up my rock band

52:57

preorder. But you know what? I bet you

52:59

your journalism teacher, he's like, oh yeah, respect,

53:02

I get it. I'll say I will say

53:04

that the drums when you start playing those

53:06

drums. It's like hey breaking news Tyler made

53:08

a great decision Okay, that's what I have

53:11

class go pick up rock band and no

53:13

regrets I graduated high school and a graduate

53:15

college. So it's fine. So take that journalism

53:17

teacher. I will say I will say that

53:20

the drums when you start playing those drums.

53:22

It's so hard And then when you get,

53:24

then you're able to like nail a song,

53:26

you're just like, I feel really good now,

53:28

because it's like, it teaches you to play

53:31

drums, kind of, right? Yeah, it really does.

53:33

Yeah, that's why I like this so much,

53:35

because like, get. Playing guitar, if you are

53:37

a guitar player, like it doesn't really help

53:40

you that much. Like maybe rhythm, like having

53:42

the dexterity of fingers, like maybe, like transitions,

53:44

but it's like, it's not really playing guitar.

53:46

When you're playing drums, you're basically really playing

53:49

the drums, like the skills you need to

53:51

keep rhythm and to separate your foot from

53:53

what your hands are doing too. That's a

53:55

real skill that drummers have and rock band

53:58

can teach it to you for sure. hero

54:00

kick the whole kick the whole thing off,

54:02

super fun. I game, super fun. at I remember

54:04

sitting in my my basement just playing

54:06

54:15

54:17

like the world to me, and I'm

54:19

54:21

to go on. Like I played. Super My Super

54:23

Nintendo it, it. my my Nintendo 64,

54:25

loved it. My PlayStation 2 is

54:27

where I became. I became a gamer. gamer where

54:29

it became it became part of my is where I is

54:32

where I really identified as being a gamer

54:34

and it was like time perfect time like my as

54:36

well of like when mid of as well who when you're

54:38

sort of figuring out who you are as a

54:40

person 2 like just a very special just a very special

54:42

place in my heart for that reason. had so my

54:44

brother had brother had one so my brother had

54:46

a PlayStation 2 and I had an original Xbox

54:49

and I kind of go back and forth and I

54:51

had an original Xbox was fine to play each

54:53

other's consoles, we didn't care. Xbox. But I played

54:55

played my PlayStation 2 more than

54:57

he played my Xbox. played my

54:59

Xbox. so many great games games

55:01

for 2. Like just so, oh man, that

55:04

boulder Skate one, it was so cool. still

55:06

still the the best selling console of all

55:08

time, isn't it? isn't it? Or... Oops, or like

55:10

right up there. up there. so. I I

55:12

think so. I think it's still

55:14

up there it it it kept selling even after the

55:16

It kept selling 3 after the kept came

55:18

out it kept selling news it was

55:20

big news when they stopped supporting

55:23

it it. Yeah, they sold it straight 2014 2014 and like

55:25

for it for for it for they were

55:27

finally just like all right, you know

55:29

just like, all great know, but we got

55:31

to stop and move on and we

55:33

were all really sad, but gotta

55:35

People that bought a move on and we're you

55:37

got a good 10 years out of

55:40

that system, I think, supporting it. 2 could

55:42

even you got a good 10 years out of on

55:44

it in like I think, they had a Netflix

55:46

it. So if you had a PlayStation hooked up

55:48

to the internet you could watch Netflix on

55:50

your PlayStation 2. That's so cool. That That

55:52

makes me so happy. Yeah. Yeah, and

55:54

according to Wikipedia, it has just

55:56

barely outsold the Nintendo DS DS for

55:58

number selling. selling video game. thing of all.

56:00

Oh, the DS is the number one. So

56:03

they count. This is the original DS, right?

56:05

Yep. Okay, that doesn't include the 3DS, the

56:07

2DS. Does not include the 3DS. Okay, interesting.

56:09

Doesn't include the Game Boy either or the

56:11

Game Boy color. Hey, PlayStation 2, you're the

56:13

best. Never change. I love you so much.

56:16

Got them. All right, now Tyler. What you've

56:18

been playing. I've been playing. Metal Gear Solid

56:20

2. because I love Metal Gear Solid and

56:22

I felt like playing the series again and

56:24

so I'm doing it, playing Metal Gear Solid

56:27

too, love that game. I did, last weekend

56:29

I played through the entirety of Metal Gear

56:31

Solid One and again loved it. I was

56:33

gonna play the Game Cube version, the Twin

56:35

Snakes, but I realize I don't have a

56:38

Game Cube memory card here. And when I

56:40

told Kelly that I was gonna, I'm like,

56:42

well then I guess I'm gonna play it

56:44

straight until I finish it. She was like.

56:46

judging me hard for that so I decided

56:48

maybe not. I'll play the PlayStation version and

56:51

I'll break it up. I'll break it up.

56:53

I'll be like, hey Kelly, this is a

56:55

judgment-free zone. Okay. It's about video games. She's

56:57

right because I would have like fallen asleep

56:59

and then probably the game key would have

57:02

turned itself off and I would have been

57:04

so sad. I'm so happy we don't live

57:06

in a day and age where we have

57:08

to have corrupted and not work. Yeah, and

57:10

you're just like, oh man, come on. Yeah.

57:13

I think I've... Those memory cards weren't as

57:15

necessary as like a PlayStation. Every game needed

57:17

it. In 64, most games saved to the

57:19

cartridge. Yeah, that's true. I did like that

57:21

it saved the cartridge. Except Tony Hawk Pro

57:24

Skater, which that was the one. That was

57:26

the one that I had to replay a

57:28

lot. I had to play... I didn't have

57:30

to, but I think I beat that game

57:32

with all the characters with all the characters,

57:34

like two or three or three times through.

57:37

Like got goals with all the characters because

57:39

I was just like I need to do

57:41

this and you could get a gold and

57:43

a guy and like an evening You know

57:45

Yeah, it didn't take the long once you

57:48

had once you knew all the levels and

57:50

like you knew how to get all five

57:52

tapes in one run You could speed it

57:54

on that game in like 20 minutes for

57:56

a character. Oh. Oh. Yeah. I loved it

57:59

was so fun. All right.

58:01

I think you've been playing Metal

58:03

been playing Metal Gear Solid, Sons of

58:05

have you been playing anything else? you been

58:07

still poking around on Pokemon Still poking around

58:09

a little bit on that. let's go Pikachu,

58:11

slow It's great, I bit on that. been

58:13

doing other stuff I think we mentioned it

58:15

last week, but did you think? it

58:18

I think. but did you think, I

58:20

this might be heresy to say be

58:22

the true Pokemon fan. the true I

58:24

think. I think. in today's world,

58:27

all they should have Pokemon

58:29

be of it is and like

58:31

it is you see the where

58:33

you see the like, the RPG thing to do now

58:35

is like, no more thing to do now.

58:37

It's like I more random battles. If

58:39

I wanna skip it, let me walk

58:42

around it. it should be that it

58:44

should be that way playing, I actually

58:46

personally now I picked up up Pokemon

58:48

Ultra Moon again. And I've I've been playing

58:50

it a bit actually, actually my

58:52

bed laying on Netflix just Ultra Moon,

58:54

not really going you know? ultramoon not really

58:57

me watching know British Baking Show,

58:59

anyway, it's great British baking show I

59:01

think that the random encounters are

59:03

killing me right now in

59:05

Ultra Moon. That's what's bugging me

59:07

more than anything. than Because you

59:10

want these you want these wild Pokemon, but you'll

59:12

of them popping up. popping up

59:14

the really ones the the ones you want popping up

59:16

is so low is so low I'm going into

59:18

the same set of same three or four times

59:20

and I'm like, I don't need to see

59:22

any more and I'm I got one, okay? to

59:24

see need to find torque and I'm not gonna use

59:26

them cuz he's bad. I Yeah, I'm not other him

59:28

And it's just so it's it's it's good to know

59:31

I want to see what's in the grass, and

59:33

I think it's also and it's just

59:35

so it's way it's good to know I like you're

59:37

walking through the in you see what's there.

59:39

I think it's That's better to me. So I

59:41

think we talked about that a bit, but then

59:43

I got really on my high horse about it,

59:45

by myself a couple nights ago, a where I'm like,

59:47

we got to talk about this this week because

59:49

it's bugging me. this this I agree. And most me. Yeah,

59:52

I have headed that way GRPGs have headed that way to like that.

59:54

five does that. All the that I've played, 3, 4, and

59:56

5 are all like that, where you see the

59:58

enemies. you Like see the enemies, thing that bugs, me the most

1:00:00

is like wanting to get from point A to point

1:00:02

B and not knowing how long it's going to take because

1:00:04

you're just like, well, knowing G going to get me? But

1:00:06

in the new way where you can see, oh, there's

1:00:08

like three things on the way. All right. me but

1:00:10

in cool, I can plan for

1:00:12

that, right? can see oh yeah, that's things on

1:00:15

think that's cool I can plan for been

1:00:17

playing yeah that's that's better I think and I've

1:00:19

been playing great yeah I've I told you

1:00:21

that but to the beginning of the

1:00:23

podcast, I finally made it to

1:00:25

chapter I finally made it to is

1:00:27

a big story change. That's all

1:00:29

I'm gonna That's all I'm gonna very Very I'm

1:00:31

really into it. I did did. It

1:00:33

was a was a to to get there

1:00:36

because I I definitely playing it by the

1:00:38

by the the way of doing all of

1:00:40

the side quests that pop up on

1:00:42

the screen up on the screen before. I I do the

1:00:44

story quests. So so it's taking a lot

1:00:46

longer, but I think it's more

1:00:48

fun this way. this way. I had a

1:00:50

a really cool side mission end, and then.

1:00:52

I looked it looked it up I was like,

1:00:54

is that the end? And there was one

1:00:56

more thing I can go do and

1:00:58

I really wanna go do it. do, and nice.

1:01:01

Gotta finish out those side missions. I'm going to

1:01:03

side mission that ends and apparently out no

1:01:05

more actual mission this pop up on the

1:01:07

map, but you can get some closure

1:01:09

by exploring the world. And so things to

1:01:11

get to that point where I can go

1:01:13

get closure. That's what I want. what I

1:01:15

I just want closure. want I'm playing and high

1:01:17

honor because I like to be a

1:01:19

nice guy, you know? you know? Yeah, of of

1:01:21

course. get shop discounts if you're a nice guy. Why

1:01:23

wouldn't you be a nice guy? be a nice

1:01:25

guy? Yeah. But then occasionally I'll accidentally murder someone with

1:01:27

my horse and get and get that's fine. That's

1:01:29

just an accident. It happens to all

1:01:32

of us. an not a big deal. It happens

1:01:34

just run over a random person and destroy

1:01:36

them with my horse. a My bad. person and

1:01:38

those were the hazards of living in

1:01:40

those days. Some days living in run over by

1:01:42

a horse and that's just how it

1:01:44

ends. run exactly. a horse and I should say I'm

1:01:46

playing a lot of Yeah, with my brother

1:01:48

and I'm having a good time with

1:01:50

that game. Even if I do feel with my

1:01:52

It's not entirely finished yet. game. Like I'm

1:01:55

still, I I it'll be really

1:01:57

good in a couple of patch

1:01:59

updates, but it's still a little wonky

1:02:01

right now with some bugs, and there's

1:02:03

also some very clear

1:02:05

like the medic class is all they have are

1:02:07

these like sub machine gun style guns and

1:02:09

very weak and they run out of ammo very

1:02:11

quickly and they need to get a little

1:02:13

buff I think And a little just to be

1:02:16

able to compete a little a little buff

1:02:18

up not too much but just a little bit

1:02:20

I'm waiting for a sale on that one. I think

1:02:22

when I when I see it for like 20

1:02:24

or 30 bucks I'm gonna grab it. Oh, yeah, and

1:02:26

by that point too, it'll be really fixed in

1:02:28

a really good game. I think I'll get it on

1:02:30

Xbox. I play with you and your brother too.

1:02:32

Yeah, do that because I love playing, I have a,

1:02:34

they the squads to four instead of five,

1:02:37

which is a good size, I think. Okay.

1:02:39

Because yeah, you can get four friends on

1:02:41

and the cool thing too, they've done with

1:02:43

this one is they've really made it so

1:02:45

in your squad. you can

1:02:47

revive any of your squad mates no matter what

1:02:49

class you are. Oh, that's great. So it's really more

1:02:51

team work -based. Do medics get like a buff? It's

1:02:53

like faster you. Yeah, medics, it's way faster. But

1:02:55

I'm an infantry guy and you are a support guy,

1:02:57

I can revive you. But I'll just grab your

1:03:00

hand and be like, come on, buddy, let's go, and

1:03:02

then we'll keep moving. Yeah, you just like speak

1:03:04

some like inspirational words of like, hey, hey, that bullet,

1:03:06

it's just in your leg, you know? You just

1:03:08

gotta get it out, let's go. Yeah, you do it

1:03:10

great. Don't even worry about that bullet that just

1:03:12

hit you in the head. You're fine, you're fine. Come

1:03:14

on, here we go. But

1:03:17

yeah, it's fun and the war stories are cool

1:03:19

too, but think it'll

1:03:21

be a really good game in like months. That's

1:03:23

my guess. so. So Cool. Cool. all

1:03:25

right, well, that's it for the day. I think

1:03:27
