Word of the Nerd. Get those nerds! Nerd! Nerd!

00:01:21.930 --> 00:01:23.930
So what have you guys been doing? I'm still reading

00:01:23.930 --> 00:01:26.310
my Walking Deads. I think I have like 15 more.

00:01:27.250 --> 00:01:30.870
You got that far already? Yeah, bro. Damn, dude,

00:01:30.930 --> 00:01:33.409
you're tearing through them. 15 more until you

00:01:33.409 --> 00:01:37.290
get to what you have? No, until I'm done. oh

00:01:37.290 --> 00:01:40.329
wow you read like 100 issues bro yeah i'm at

00:01:40.329 --> 00:01:43.769
178 right now damn you're like on 73 in the last

00:01:43.769 --> 00:01:47.989
they're good bro i've been liking them yeah i

00:01:47.989 --> 00:01:51.150
do want to sit down and read them all i've been

00:01:51.150 --> 00:01:54.489
really enjoying them so yeah i think one 193

00:01:54.489 --> 00:01:57.189
is the last one i i can physically read them

00:01:57.189 --> 00:02:01.670
all the ones i have now but i don't know i just

00:02:01.670 --> 00:02:03.760
don't feel like getting them out Yeah, sometimes

00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:05.879
it's just easier. Especially the last one. The

00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.300
last one's worth not a lot of money, but a little

00:02:09.300 --> 00:02:12.719
bit. Yeah, nice, nice. They didn't sell a lot

00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:14.800
of the first printings, I guess, or something.

00:02:16.300 --> 00:02:18.020
Yeah, who knows? Well, they did that weird thing

00:02:18.020 --> 00:02:20.699
where they made up fake issues and then people

00:02:20.699 --> 00:02:23.139
got pissed off about it. Yeah, because they paid

00:02:23.139 --> 00:02:25.520
for them. And then Robert Kirkman's like, oh,

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.439
yeah, fuck this, I'm done. Well, he knew he was

00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.099
ending at $193 and they made fake issues for

00:02:31.099 --> 00:02:35.979
the soliciting. Yeah, yeah. And then after 193

00:02:35.979 --> 00:02:37.379
came out, I was like, yeah, we're not making

00:02:37.379 --> 00:02:38.479
any more. He's like, yeah, just kidding. This

00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:40.180
is actually the last one. Everyone's like, what

00:02:40.180 --> 00:02:44.180
the fuck, dude? And they paid for him because

00:02:44.180 --> 00:02:47.280
they pre -ordered him and everything. Yeah. The

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.699
thing that drives me fucking crazy is he couldn't

00:02:49.699 --> 00:02:52.780
do seven more issues. Just seven more. He couldn't

00:02:52.780 --> 00:02:55.560
get to a cool 200 and call it in. Yeah, I know.

00:02:55.740 --> 00:02:58.780
It would have been just... And he didn't finish

00:02:58.780 --> 00:03:03.280
the story, right? He kind of, right? He kind

00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:07.699
of did, I think. I don't know 100 % yet. I know

00:03:07.699 --> 00:03:10.560
the last issue is like 10 years. It's like 20

00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:16.719
years after the previous issue. So I don't know

00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:19.879
what happens in 192. I just know 193 is like

00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:27.780
20 years after that. Which is whatever. He's

00:03:27.780 --> 00:03:29.860
kind of crazy. He just was like, yeah, I'm done.

00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:33.740
Yeah. Yeah, bro. He's fucking popping them out.

00:03:33.860 --> 00:03:37.240
And then he's like, yeah, whatever. I figured

00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:39.759
at that point, they would have given it to somebody

00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:41.900
else or something, but I guess he didn't want

00:03:41.900 --> 00:03:44.780
to do that either. He's always kind of been that

00:03:44.780 --> 00:03:50.080
way with things. I don't know. He's always had

00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.060
a weird way of going about doing things. I don't

00:03:53.060 --> 00:03:56.360
know. I'm surprised he made a show. Honestly.

00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:04.990
Which, That blew up like crazy. Oh, yeah. Well,

00:04:05.009 --> 00:04:06.030
yeah, the comic books are worth what they are

00:04:06.030 --> 00:04:09.030
because of the show. Well, yeah, I know. But

00:04:09.030 --> 00:04:12.729
still, it's just crazy. So I'm almost done with

00:04:12.729 --> 00:04:18.209
them. And then I beat Doom, The Dark Ages. That

00:04:18.209 --> 00:04:23.810
was pretty dope. I think it's the weakest one

00:04:23.810 --> 00:04:27.290
of the three. Oh, yeah. Is it related or is it

00:04:27.290 --> 00:04:30.569
just kind of a... It's a prequel to the first

00:04:30.569 --> 00:04:35.110
reboot. Oh, okay. So it's like the end of that

00:04:35.110 --> 00:04:37.790
one is the straight up beginning of the first

00:04:37.790 --> 00:04:39.569
one. Oh, really? Oh, that's kind of cool. Yeah.

00:04:39.930 --> 00:04:45.250
So it's good. Don't get me wrong. I think it's

00:04:45.250 --> 00:04:48.629
definitely Doom worthy. But the only thing that's

00:04:48.629 --> 00:04:50.550
just really different is you have a shield in

00:04:50.550 --> 00:04:53.529
that one and you parry. And that game's very

00:04:53.529 --> 00:04:57.060
heavy on parrying. So it's not. It's not as much

00:04:57.060 --> 00:05:01.740
as gunplay. It's more like melee, kind of. Yeah,

00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:03.860
yeah. Well, it's just the parrying thing. You

00:05:03.860 --> 00:05:06.980
can parry so much shit in that game, and that's

00:05:06.980 --> 00:05:11.180
kind of the whole combat, really. That's the

00:05:11.180 --> 00:05:14.600
biggest part, is the parrying. Yeah. It's weird

00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:17.699
for an FPS game. That's kind of weird. Like I

00:05:17.699 --> 00:05:20.720
said, I didn't think it was too bad. I don't

00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.420
think it was a weird direction for them to go.

00:05:25.139 --> 00:05:28.019
That's not really a Doom thing, but I still thought

00:05:28.019 --> 00:05:30.779
the gunplay and everything else was really good.

00:05:30.860 --> 00:05:32.879
It still felt like Doom. It's better than 3,

00:05:32.980 --> 00:05:39.540
right? Yeah, well, yeah. I think that was the

00:05:39.540 --> 00:05:43.060
only thing I was kind of on the fence about,

00:05:43.220 --> 00:05:45.399
but everything else was great. You don't have

00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:49.860
to play it that way, right? Yeah, you kind of

00:05:49.860 --> 00:05:54.660
have to. Do you? It's forced. Well, yeah. Because

00:05:54.660 --> 00:05:58.100
a lot of it is if you don't parry it, it's just

00:05:58.100 --> 00:06:01.240
going to kill you. Oh, okay. Yeah. And it makes

00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:04.980
the game a hell of a lot easier. It can't be

00:06:04.980 --> 00:06:07.740
bad, bro. No, it's not bad. I'm not saying it's

00:06:07.740 --> 00:06:10.240
bad. I just thought it was an odd direction to

00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:13.120
go to for an FPS, like Joe said. But it's still

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.980
a great fucking game. I read the reviews and

00:06:15.980 --> 00:06:19.220
some people were like back and forth on it. Yeah.

00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:22.949
But again, bro, I don't... You just can't read

00:06:22.949 --> 00:06:25.569
reviews. No, I'm just saying they change the

00:06:25.569 --> 00:06:27.430
combat system. You can, you just can't take them

00:06:27.430 --> 00:06:34.569
serious. Yeah. This game saved my life. God gifted

00:06:34.569 --> 00:06:36.170
me this game and then some people are like, I

00:06:36.170 --> 00:06:38.149
fucking hate this game. I'd rather get shot in

00:06:38.149 --> 00:06:42.170
the face. It killed my dog and my whole family

00:06:42.170 --> 00:06:45.110
is in the hospital. It's just... Killed my bunny.

00:06:45.509 --> 00:06:52.069
Yeah. it's just so stupid but like i said it's

00:06:52.069 --> 00:06:54.310
it's definitely worth it especially since it's

00:06:54.310 --> 00:06:57.970
on sale now it's 100 worth it but it is it is

00:06:57.970 --> 00:07:01.149
very kind of a little bit different pace so yeah

00:07:01.149 --> 00:07:03.910
all right cool as long as you know that going

00:07:03.910 --> 00:07:07.189
into it it's not that bad yeah but like i said

00:07:07.189 --> 00:07:10.509
everything else is fucking doom it's doom well

00:07:10.509 --> 00:07:12.449
i've never played a doom so i wouldn't know Come

00:07:12.449 --> 00:07:14.209
on, man. Really? You haven't played? I've never

00:07:14.209 --> 00:07:16.149
played a single Doom, no. You know what's funny?

00:07:16.189 --> 00:07:18.069
I've played, like, Doom mods. I've played, like,

00:07:18.069 --> 00:07:22.050
Chex Quest. Stuff like that, but... I know what

00:07:22.050 --> 00:07:24.790
you do. The reboots are good. Well, the reboot

00:07:24.790 --> 00:07:27.509
and then the past are good. I do want to. I mean,

00:07:27.509 --> 00:07:29.509
I own them. I just need to play them, but...

00:07:29.509 --> 00:07:33.430
Yeah, dude. Those ones are awesome. They're worth

00:07:33.430 --> 00:07:36.329
it for sure. Yeah. Other than that, I bought

00:07:36.329 --> 00:07:39.209
DLC for Dead Island 2. I think both of them are,

00:07:39.250 --> 00:07:42.660
like, $10. Nice. The season pass was like $10

00:07:42.660 --> 00:07:45.259
or something. Nice. Yeah, I'm going to do it.

00:07:45.540 --> 00:07:47.600
Yeah, I think Dead Island 2 is on sale for like

00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.779
$10. I think it's fucking $5 on Steam. Is it

00:07:50.779 --> 00:07:53.019
$5? Yeah, it's cheap. I think so, bro. It's cheap.

00:07:53.259 --> 00:07:55.540
I know, I need to get it before it ends. That

00:07:55.540 --> 00:07:59.740
is super worth it. For a game to be in development

00:07:59.740 --> 00:08:04.459
hell for what, 10 years? And it's actually a

00:08:04.459 --> 00:08:07.819
good game. I know, I have it on PS5, but if you

00:08:07.819 --> 00:08:09.360
guys get it on PC, I kind of want to get it and

00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:12.269
play it with you guys. Yeah, dude, it's $5 right

00:08:12.269 --> 00:08:15.209
now. I know, yeah. And you can get the Ultimate

00:08:15.209 --> 00:08:18.129
Edition for $7. Damn, that's with all the DLC

00:08:18.129 --> 00:08:19.649
and shit? Yeah, I might have to do that. We might

00:08:19.649 --> 00:08:23.730
have to play that game. Yeah. So, it's worth

00:08:23.730 --> 00:08:27.069
it. You guys would like it. It does feel a little

00:08:27.069 --> 00:08:29.069
bit like the old school Dead Island, but it's

00:08:29.069 --> 00:08:33.210
obviously more modern. You'll play it and you're

00:08:33.210 --> 00:08:35.309
like, damn, this is actually pretty good. It's

00:08:35.309 --> 00:08:40.190
not like fucking Riptide. Fucking nuts. I don't

00:08:40.190 --> 00:08:42.129
remember why that game was so bad, but I do remember

00:08:42.129 --> 00:08:45.230
not liking it. I played it for like 10 minutes

00:08:45.230 --> 00:08:48.110
and I never played it again. It just was missing

00:08:48.110 --> 00:08:50.070
some of the charm. It just missed the charm for

00:08:50.070 --> 00:08:51.289
some reason. I don't know what happened with

00:08:51.289 --> 00:08:52.909
that one. Well, it was that and they had the

00:08:52.909 --> 00:08:56.710
stupid levels in them and you like Assassin's

00:08:56.710 --> 00:08:59.690
Creed where you had to be like a certain level

00:08:59.690 --> 00:09:03.690
where you're fucking ass rocked. Yeah. So that

00:09:03.690 --> 00:09:07.840
ruins that shit for me, dude. Yeah, yeah. so

00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:10.879
the first one had levels didn't it yeah but it

00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:13.919
wasn't i don't think it was as forced it was

00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.360
well yeah but that was more progression though

00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:22.120
yeah yeah you could um i think riptide you had

00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:25.320
to be a not a certain level to do missions and

00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:27.600
stuff but if you were under leveled you would

00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:31.500
get destroyed right yeah so dead island that

00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:33.620
never fucking happened it would it would have

00:09:33.620 --> 00:09:38.100
gotten harder but I don't know. I hate when games

00:09:38.100 --> 00:09:41.519
do that. If they have good side missions, maybe.

00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:46.000
But I don't know. That's why I never beat Origins.

00:09:46.580 --> 00:09:49.399
Or not Origins, Odyssey. I never beat Odyssey.

00:09:49.820 --> 00:09:52.419
I was so close to beating that game. I was like

00:09:52.419 --> 00:09:55.679
three missions off from beating the game. I got

00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:59.159
to the water temple or whatever. Underwater temple.

00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.559
And I was like, dude, fuck this. Because I wasn't

00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:04.600
high enough level to do the next mission. This

00:10:04.600 --> 00:10:07.539
is ridiculous. I just hate that. And Assassin's

00:10:07.539 --> 00:10:11.440
Creed can have some pretty monotonous side missions.

00:10:11.740 --> 00:10:14.100
Yeah, it does, yeah. I don't think it was a bad

00:10:14.100 --> 00:10:17.159
game. I think that's just a dumb mechanic. Especially

00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:20.360
fucking being Assassin's Creed. Yeah, it's always

00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:22.279
been kind of stupid. I've never been a huge fan

00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:25.340
of it, but... I hate the fact that you just can't

00:10:25.340 --> 00:10:27.620
assassinate people. That's the biggest thing

00:10:27.620 --> 00:10:30.820
to me. That is the biggest issue for me. Luckily,

00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.840
I think... Odyssey is the only one where you

00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:35.620
couldn't eventually get to a point where you

00:10:35.620 --> 00:10:38.019
could do that, where you could just assassinate

00:10:38.019 --> 00:10:42.320
everybody. So I'm pretty sure Origins and Valhalla

00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:44.200
had it where you could eventually, like you'd

00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:45.519
have to level up to the point, but you could

00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:48.659
eventually assassinate everybody. Yeah, yeah.

00:10:49.019 --> 00:10:51.960
Mirage is pretty good about it. I will give Mirage

00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:53.100
that. Yeah, Mirage is good, but it's more like

00:10:53.100 --> 00:10:55.200
Origins. It's pretty good about it. Yeah, it

00:10:55.200 --> 00:11:00.019
definitely feels like one. For sure. So I think

00:11:00.019 --> 00:11:03.529
that's why it's pretty good. Alright, who's next?

00:11:04.110 --> 00:11:07.429
I played Dying Light the Beast. It was good.

00:11:07.710 --> 00:11:11.330
What's that? Is that DLC? No, it's like an entirely

00:11:11.330 --> 00:11:14.669
new game. It was supposed to be DLC for Dying

00:11:14.669 --> 00:11:19.090
Light 2, but then they made it a spin -off. I

00:11:19.090 --> 00:11:22.210
think it's probably my least favorite out of

00:11:22.210 --> 00:11:24.809
the three. I mean, it really should have been

00:11:24.809 --> 00:11:28.529
DLC because it doesn't... I wouldn't mind if

00:11:28.529 --> 00:11:32.029
it was like... $40, but it's a $60 game and it

00:11:32.029 --> 00:11:34.470
doesn't feel like it has the same amount of stuff

00:11:34.470 --> 00:11:37.970
that the first two games have. It's a little

00:11:37.970 --> 00:11:41.549
disappointing. I feel like the parkour system

00:11:41.549 --> 00:11:45.190
isn't as good either. It still did though. The

00:11:45.190 --> 00:11:47.590
second one's great. The second one's awesome.

00:11:47.789 --> 00:11:50.710
It's really good. I feel like the game was like

00:11:50.710 --> 00:11:53.870
a spin -off. They tried to do a money grab thing

00:11:53.870 --> 00:12:01.320
for it. Crane in there, right? I feel like they

00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:04.279
tried to write on that character. Try to get

00:12:04.279 --> 00:12:07.200
some money out of it. It should have just been

00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:10.679
DLC for the second game. It would have worked

00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:13.080
a lot better in my opinion. I don't know why

00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:15.940
they decided to expand it. Besides that, I also

00:12:15.940 --> 00:12:19.820
played Silent Hill F. I actually beat it today.

00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:23.659
It is really good. It's probably my favorite

00:12:23.659 --> 00:12:26.080
Silent Hill now because it's just... It's so

00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:31.720
good. Gameplay is awesome. It looks great visually.

00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.480
The sound design is incredible. The story is

00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:40.159
pretty good, too. I mean, I know it's kind of

00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:43.799
a deviation of every other Silent Hill, but it's

00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:46.799
really good. Have you played all of them now?

00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:51.220
Have you played every Silent Hill? No. I haven't

00:12:51.220 --> 00:12:55.490
played Homecoming. I think there was one. I think

00:12:55.490 --> 00:12:59.629
it's either the one just the one before homecoming

00:12:59.629 --> 00:13:01.830
or the one after homecoming. I forgot. Oh, okay.

00:13:02.029 --> 00:13:04.210
I think it's for the, Oh, downpour. I never played

00:13:04.210 --> 00:13:08.470
downpour. So never even heard of that one. I

00:13:08.470 --> 00:13:12.509
think it's for the PS3. Oh, the PS3. Okay. You

00:13:12.509 --> 00:13:14.539
know, F was awesome. And I still got to get the

00:13:14.539 --> 00:13:16.440
other three endings. So I'm really looking forward

00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:18.820
to it because my buddy told me he already 100

00:13:18.820 --> 00:13:21.440
% the game. He said that you had to get all four

00:13:21.440 --> 00:13:24.779
endings to really understand the story. So I'm

00:13:24.779 --> 00:13:26.679
looking forward to it. Yeah, I do want to play

00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:28.019
that. I do want to play Silent Hill. I think

00:13:28.019 --> 00:13:30.700
that's on the list, right? You need to play those

00:13:30.700 --> 00:13:33.279
games. I think so. I think you just added it,

00:13:33.299 --> 00:13:35.899
right? I don't know, dude. I add games like every

00:13:35.899 --> 00:13:39.039
day to that list. Yeah, I know. I know that.

00:13:39.100 --> 00:13:40.820
As soon as I asked that question, I already knew.

00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:44.379
I already knew the answer. No, Silent Hill is

00:13:44.379 --> 00:13:47.019
not on here. Okay, well, it's going to be. Yeah,

00:13:47.179 --> 00:13:53.580
I don't doubt it. Just what we need. Anything

00:13:53.580 --> 00:13:57.379
else, Jacob? Is that all you got? I finished

00:13:57.379 --> 00:14:01.419
the last Maze Runner book, The Death Cure. It

00:14:01.419 --> 00:14:05.559
was good. I do like the trilogy, but it's definitely

00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:09.679
not my favorite young adult dystopian sci -fi

00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.679
stuff. I don't know. It just kind of feels a

00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:17.860
little all over the place. It has prequels. It

00:14:17.860 --> 00:14:20.259
has two prequel books, and I'm actually reading

00:14:20.259 --> 00:14:23.120
one of them right now. So I'm hoping maybe my

00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.440
opinion might change if I know all the backstory.

00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:31.360
So it's good so far. The first prequel book,

00:14:31.460 --> 00:14:34.759
I think, is about the formation of Wicked, which

00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:37.720
is like the organization, like the big top dog

00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:40.649
organization that's mentioned. again and again

00:14:40.649 --> 00:14:42.590
throughout the first three books. The second

00:14:42.590 --> 00:14:45.789
book's about the main character and how they

00:14:45.789 --> 00:14:48.710
became the person that they are in the original

00:14:48.710 --> 00:14:52.789
trilogy. I do like the series, but it's probably

00:14:52.789 --> 00:14:55.350
my least favorite one that I've read so far out

00:14:55.350 --> 00:15:00.049
of the young adult dystopian sci -fi stuff. You

00:15:00.049 --> 00:15:04.090
gotta read Wheel of Time now, bro. Wheel of Time?

00:15:04.250 --> 00:15:08.230
Never heard that. It's 14 books. Are you sure?

00:15:08.269 --> 00:15:11.029
Chris mentioned it like three times. It's my

00:15:11.029 --> 00:15:13.450
favorite series, dude. I love it so much. Oh

00:15:13.450 --> 00:15:16.789
my God. It gets, it gets a little long in some

00:15:16.789 --> 00:15:19.529
points, but it's such a, it's such a good read,

00:15:19.570 --> 00:15:22.850
man. It's such a good story. The, the, the magic

00:15:22.850 --> 00:15:24.950
is like super thought out and it's so cool how

00:15:24.950 --> 00:15:27.970
it all works and everything. I love it, but it's

00:15:27.970 --> 00:15:30.190
definitely an undertaking for sure. All right,

00:15:30.210 --> 00:15:33.929
cool. Anything else? That's it. All right. We

00:15:33.929 --> 00:15:36.720
got Eric. I went back because it's been bothering

00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:39.659
me and finished up some games that I had on my

00:15:39.659 --> 00:15:42.080
retro achievements that I didn't finish. Oh,

00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:45.480
yeah? I went back and finished Paper Mario. Yeah,

00:15:45.539 --> 00:15:48.039
I've seen that one. And beat that. And I went

00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:51.320
back and actually I beat Rule of Rose. Rule of

00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:55.279
Rose, yeah? Yeah. You didn't master it though,

00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:56.960
you just beat it? No, no, I just beat the game.

00:15:57.940 --> 00:15:59.740
I mean, you were pretty close anyway to that,

00:15:59.820 --> 00:16:02.740
right? Yeah, I was on the last level. Oh, okay,

00:16:02.860 --> 00:16:06.960
okay. I mean, I went back and played it. Yeah.

00:16:07.340 --> 00:16:09.779
Are you, like, okay now? Are you okay after doing

00:16:09.779 --> 00:16:12.519
that? No, it made me even hate it even more.

00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:15.419
Yeah, are you mentally okay from doing it? I'm

00:16:15.419 --> 00:16:17.059
still trying to recover. Still trying to recover.

00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:20.820
No, I was on the last level. I was like, I got

00:16:20.820 --> 00:16:22.679
to finish it. Yeah, you're that close. I'm surprised

00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:25.580
you didn't just finish it before. Yeah, I don't

00:16:25.580 --> 00:16:28.299
know. I couldn't do it. But I just, I don't know.

00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:31.000
I hate. seeing unfinished stuff bro i know every

00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:33.159
time i see that three four games that i haven't

00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:37.899
mastered i'm like oh yeah yeah mastering i don't

00:16:37.899 --> 00:16:39.679
and i'm not too worried about anymore as long

00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:42.980
as i just yeah yeah yeah all right nice well

00:16:42.980 --> 00:16:46.919
thanks for your service yeah no problem it was

00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:51.620
it was uh it was rough yeah i bet but nah i just

00:16:51.620 --> 00:16:55.559
had to do it i actually finished reading um ghosts

00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:58.919
in the shell today nice I put it off because,

00:16:59.019 --> 00:17:02.879
again, that's a... It's a tough read, dude. It's

00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:05.680
a tough read, it really is. God, dude, that last

00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:07.980
book is just insane. Yeah, that last book, I

00:17:07.980 --> 00:17:10.259
honestly, I read it, and it wasn't that long

00:17:10.259 --> 00:17:11.519
ago, and I honestly couldn't even tell you what

00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:13.339
happened. Dude, I just read it today, I don't

00:17:13.339 --> 00:17:14.859
even know what the hell was going on. Yeah, like,

00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:16.240
I honestly could not give you the plot point.

00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:20.240
I have no idea what happened. Yeah. It's nuts.

00:17:20.299 --> 00:17:22.099
Like, the ending is... I don't even know what

00:17:22.099 --> 00:17:23.500
the hell the guy's talking about half the time.

00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:25.799
I know, I know. I don't even know what, I don't,

00:17:25.819 --> 00:17:27.079
I don't even know what happened. I couldn't explain

00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:30.539
a single thing to you. I don't know. They were

00:17:30.539 --> 00:17:33.019
like trying to create a new life form and merge

00:17:33.019 --> 00:17:35.059
with it or something. I have no idea. Yeah. I

00:17:35.059 --> 00:17:37.019
don't know, dude. It was, it was insane. And

00:17:37.019 --> 00:17:39.220
I'm sure part of that is because I'm sure it's

00:17:39.220 --> 00:17:42.640
very, um, like high level, like Japanese and

00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:44.619
then translating that into English, I'm sure

00:17:44.619 --> 00:17:48.200
was a very hard challenge, but the story itself

00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.279
is also just very convoluted. So, but the art

00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:53.950
was cool. Yeah. It was pretty interesting. But

00:17:53.950 --> 00:17:58.650
I picked up Trigun. I've been reading that. Yeah.

00:17:58.950 --> 00:18:03.410
So, dude, reading that made me realize how long

00:18:03.410 --> 00:18:06.589
-winded Ghost in the Shell is. I know. Yeah,

00:18:06.690 --> 00:18:10.089
I know. Like, every page is like a 10 -minute

00:18:10.089 --> 00:18:13.390
read. I know, dude. I know. That anime is just

00:18:13.390 --> 00:18:16.630
packed with stuff. It's crazy. It's not just

00:18:16.630 --> 00:18:19.369
the words. It's the story, the words, the art.

00:18:19.470 --> 00:18:23.250
The manga is insane. It's insane. I read that

00:18:23.250 --> 00:18:27.529
Trigun book in six days. Yeah. Yeah. And that's

00:18:27.529 --> 00:18:30.069
just, you know, here and there. Yeah. I've been

00:18:30.069 --> 00:18:31.750
working on Ghost in the Shell for like months.

00:18:34.890 --> 00:18:37.210
It's like when you read the Divine Comedy, you

00:18:37.210 --> 00:18:40.589
know. Dude. Yeah. That was another read. Yeah.

00:18:41.750 --> 00:18:46.309
But. So I finished Trigun. I finished the original

00:18:46.309 --> 00:18:49.230
book. Yeah. And then I started Maximum. Nice.

00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:51.819
I have the manga. I haven't read it yet, but

00:18:51.819 --> 00:18:53.220
I've seen the anime, and the anime is pretty

00:18:53.220 --> 00:18:56.599
damn good. Yeah. The book is awesome. Yeah. I

00:18:56.599 --> 00:18:57.940
think the anime and the book are pretty close.

00:18:58.579 --> 00:19:00.740
From what I heard, yeah, the anime is pretty

00:19:00.740 --> 00:19:03.259
much the book. It's good. The book was awesome.

00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.319
I didn't realize how goofy it is, I guess. Yeah,

00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:09.500
it's more of a lighthearted one for sure, yeah.

00:19:09.660 --> 00:19:12.019
Yeah, because coming off of Berserk, I was kind

00:19:12.019 --> 00:19:14.660
of expecting a little bit more seriousness, but

00:19:14.660 --> 00:19:18.099
it's definitely a goofy book. But it's good.

00:19:18.180 --> 00:19:20.589
It's funny. Yeah, what's his name? Thrash? Or

00:19:20.589 --> 00:19:25.109
Vash? Vash, yeah. But the story is definitely

00:19:25.109 --> 00:19:28.210
kind of dug into me, and I'm interested in it.

00:19:28.289 --> 00:19:32.390
Nice. That character trope of, like, Vash, where

00:19:32.390 --> 00:19:34.470
he's, like, the best, but he doesn't really,

00:19:34.509 --> 00:19:36.450
like, give a shit and doesn't want anything to

00:19:36.450 --> 00:19:38.029
do with anybody, that's, like, my favorite character

00:19:38.029 --> 00:19:40.869
trope. I love that shit. It's awesome. I don't

00:19:40.869 --> 00:19:42.150
know why, but that's always, like, my favorite

00:19:42.150 --> 00:19:44.829
character thing. Yeah. Like, when some swordsman's,

00:19:44.849 --> 00:19:47.009
like, the best, but he never wants to fight anybody.

00:19:47.660 --> 00:19:49.180
Yeah, they want nothing to do with it. Yeah,

00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:50.700
I love that dude. That's my favorite character

00:19:50.700 --> 00:19:53.079
trope for sure. Yeah, I don't, again, I don't

00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:54.680
really know the whole story, but he's not even

00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:56.599
like human or something. Yeah, it's something

00:19:56.599 --> 00:19:58.700
weird. I forget exactly what it was, but. But

00:19:58.700 --> 00:20:01.819
yeah. No, the story's awesome. I'm really digging

00:20:01.819 --> 00:20:04.000
into it. I just bought the other two books yesterday,

00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:06.799
so. Nice. How many for the maximum? Is it three?

00:20:07.539 --> 00:20:10.740
There's five. Oh, okay. So I'll have three. I

for the fucking price. I know. I got one of those

00:20:28.109 --> 00:20:30.890
books, I got two of those books for $16. Damn,

00:20:30.970 --> 00:20:34.769
yeah, that's a steal, dude. I got the maximum,

00:20:34.950 --> 00:20:37.349
the one for $16, and I got the third book for

00:20:37.349 --> 00:20:41.410
$16. How can you argue with that? Yeah, I know.

00:20:41.829 --> 00:20:43.690

00:20:43.690 --> 00:20:46.089

00:20:57.109 --> 00:20:59.170
other thing i've been watching the uh devil may

00:20:59.170 --> 00:21:02.029
cry has an anime so i've been watching that that's

00:21:02.029 --> 00:21:07.690
newer right yeah i don't i think last year i

00:21:07.690 --> 00:21:09.349
don't remember when i don't even know when it

00:21:09.349 --> 00:21:11.650
came out And you've played, like, all the games,

00:21:11.710 --> 00:21:13.950
haven't you? I've played every single one, I

00:21:13.950 --> 00:21:17.289
think. Nice. Oh, damn, that's 2007? I didn't

00:21:17.289 --> 00:21:18.829
even know that was that old. What, the anime?

00:21:18.990 --> 00:21:23.650
Yeah. Yeah. Is it good? I like it. That's, like,

00:21:23.690 --> 00:21:28.930
before 5, isn't it? Yeah. 5 was 20, right? Something.

00:21:29.769 --> 00:21:33.130
2019, yeah. Damn. Oh, so did the reboot come

00:21:33.130 --> 00:21:36.410
out before that? Of what? Devil May Cry? Where

00:21:36.410 --> 00:21:38.410
he's, like, young Dante or whatever? Did that

00:21:38.410 --> 00:21:41.430
come out before 5? This is even before 4. Damn.

00:21:42.089 --> 00:21:45.410
4 came out in 2008. That was a PS3 game, 4 was?

00:21:46.089 --> 00:21:49.069
Yeah. Hmm. Okay. When did that remake come out?

00:21:49.309 --> 00:21:51.190
I don't know. I thought it was, like, 2015 or

00:21:51.190 --> 00:21:54.990
something. 2013. Oh, okay. That game was awesome.

00:21:55.390 --> 00:21:59.690
Yeah. I loved that game. I liked most of them.

00:22:00.230 --> 00:22:03.170
They were all pretty good. Yeah, I don't know

00:22:03.170 --> 00:22:05.450
a lot of people who don't like, like, if they

00:22:05.450 --> 00:22:08.170
like... Devil May Cry is not really one that

00:22:08.170 --> 00:22:09.890
nobody's like, you know, oh, that one wasn't

00:22:09.890 --> 00:22:12.529
good, but. I think a lot of people shit on, too.

00:22:13.190 --> 00:22:16.630
Do they? I liked all of them. I'm not crazy into

00:22:16.630 --> 00:22:21.289
that, like, the combat system where you do, like,

00:22:21.369 --> 00:22:23.089
those ridiculous combos. Yeah, you gotta get

00:22:23.089 --> 00:22:26.130
the S combo, yeah. Yeah, I'm not that crazy.

00:22:26.650 --> 00:22:29.569
Yeah, I'm liking the show. I like Dante. He's

00:22:29.569 --> 00:22:32.809
such a, he's got that, like, suave, you know,

00:22:32.809 --> 00:22:36.039
personality. But he kind of, like, gives a shit.

00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:38.880
Yeah. But not up front about it. Yeah, he's,

00:22:38.940 --> 00:22:41.619
like, pretending not to, yeah. Well, yeah, I

00:22:41.619 --> 00:22:43.480
think it's worth a watch. It's only one season,

00:22:43.539 --> 00:22:47.420
and I think it's, like, 12 episodes. Is it a

00:22:47.420 --> 00:22:49.759
whole new story, or is it, like, following the

00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:53.500
games? It's just kind of, like, side quests that

00:22:53.500 --> 00:22:55.779
he does. Oh, okay. For, like, demon hunting.

00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:59.799
Okay. So it basically follows the game, but just,

00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:02.299
like, short episodes. Mm -hmm. You know, my biggest

00:23:02.299 --> 00:23:04.819
gripe is, like, they don't animate. the fighting

00:23:04.819 --> 00:23:08.819
a lot i think it's just for budget reasons i'm

00:23:08.819 --> 00:23:11.539
sure yeah but i like it it's fun it's interesting

00:23:11.539 --> 00:23:14.700
so all right that's cool that's about it for

00:23:14.700 --> 00:23:17.599
me all right let's see what have i been doing

00:23:17.599 --> 00:23:21.420
so i finished a game called downwell it's like

00:23:21.420 --> 00:23:23.799
a little indie game on the vita you got you finally

00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:26.759
beat that game yeah dude that was so tough i

00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:28.779
know you were struggling with that one yeah trying

00:23:28.779 --> 00:23:31.000
to get the platinum you had to beat it on a hard

00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:34.089
mode and dude that it was tough man Yeah, I watched

00:23:34.089 --> 00:23:35.910
you play it. It did look tough. It's a fun game.

00:23:36.049 --> 00:23:38.509
I liked it a lot. You have like these little

00:23:38.509 --> 00:23:40.369
gun shoes, you know, like jump on monsters and

00:23:40.369 --> 00:23:42.869
stuff and everything, but I finally finished

00:23:42.869 --> 00:23:47.109
that. And then, let's see, I've been listening

00:23:47.109 --> 00:23:50.230
to, there's an Assassin's Creed Gold. It's a

00:23:50.230 --> 00:23:53.210
radio show of Assassin's Creed, and I've been

00:23:53.210 --> 00:23:55.490
listening to that. It's pretty good. What's that

00:23:55.490 --> 00:23:59.569
about? It's like during, there's like a minting

00:23:59.569 --> 00:24:02.299
thing in like England. There was, like, a bunch

00:24:02.299 --> 00:24:04.700
of counterfeiters. I think it's, like, 1800s.

00:24:04.700 --> 00:24:07.200
I forgot exactly when it was. But it's following

00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:10.880
a blind assassin. Like, he's trying to help Isaac

00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:13.160
Newton find these counterfeiters and stuff and

00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:17.339
everything. But it's pretty good. They have,

00:24:17.420 --> 00:24:21.519
like, the present assassin and, like, the old,

00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:24.440
you know, like, the ancient assassin. And the

00:24:24.440 --> 00:24:26.579
present one, it's, like, a girl. She's, like,

00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:30.299
a, I don't know, a con artist, I guess. The dialogue's

00:24:30.299 --> 00:24:32.779
kind of, it's a little cringy, but it's not,

00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:35.160
like, awful. I don't know. I'm enjoying it. It's

00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:39.339
pretty good. Is this official, like, Assassin's

00:24:39.339 --> 00:24:41.319
Creed, or is it fan -made? No, it's Ubisoft.

00:24:41.660 --> 00:24:46.359
Oh, okay. Yeah. Dude, Ubisoft has tried everything

00:24:46.359 --> 00:24:48.940
with Assassin's Creed. It's nuts. Yeah. And I've

00:24:48.940 --> 00:24:53.440
tried to listen and read it all, so. Have you

00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:55.559
read the novels? Some of them. I haven't read

00:24:55.559 --> 00:24:58.519
all of them. Oh, okay. There's like, what, five

00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:00.440
or six of them? There's like 15 or 20, dude.

00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:04.240
Of the novels? Yeah, there's a lot, yeah. And

00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:06.059
then there's comic books. There's like three

00:25:06.059 --> 00:25:08.220
or four comic book series. There's a lot. Yeah,

00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:10.140
I know about the comics, but... Yeah, some of

00:25:10.140 --> 00:25:12.099
the books are really good, actually. One of the

00:25:12.099 --> 00:25:16.599
books, the one for Assassin's Creed 3, it actually

00:25:16.599 --> 00:25:19.099
follows Hathem, which was Connor's dad, the one

00:25:19.099 --> 00:25:22.160
who was the Templar. And I think that story was

00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:24.299
actually way better than the game. Oh, really?

00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:26.720
Yeah, it was so good, dude. The story for Haytham

00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:29.180
was so much better. Just because he was, like,

00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:31.279
in between both worlds, and it was, I don't know,

00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:33.140
it was really good. I think he was just a better

00:25:33.140 --> 00:25:35.660
character than Connor anyway, but anyway. He

00:25:35.660 --> 00:25:39.380
seemed like that in the game anyway. Huh? He

00:25:39.380 --> 00:25:40.940
seemed like he was a better character in the

00:25:40.940 --> 00:25:42.720
game. Yeah, he was, dude. Like, Connor, like,

00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:45.680
I don't hate him as much as I used to, but Connor

00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:47.700
was just kind of a shitty character. He's such

00:25:47.700 --> 00:25:51.930
a whiny bitch. Yeah. I don't hate him as much

00:25:51.930 --> 00:25:53.849
like he kind of he got better by the end of the

00:25:53.849 --> 00:25:56.309
game but yeah Hathem was I wish they'd made the

00:25:56.309 --> 00:25:58.230
game about Hathem it was so much better but anyway

00:25:58.230 --> 00:26:01.369
and then I'm working on a new video for the podcast

00:26:01.369 --> 00:26:03.150
been trying to play Mission Impossible on the

00:26:03.150 --> 00:26:04.650
PS1 I don't know if you guys ever played that

00:26:04.650 --> 00:26:07.529
I think it's tough dude I loved that game when

00:26:07.529 --> 00:26:10.630
I was a kid dude it's actually not a bad movie

00:26:10.630 --> 00:26:12.849
game like it's not great don't get me wrong it's

00:26:12.849 --> 00:26:16.029
not an incredible game but for like a movie tie

00:26:16.029 --> 00:26:18.759
-in game it's actually not awful Yeah. Which

00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:21.500
is an accomplishment for, for back then. But

00:26:21.500 --> 00:26:24.019
it is tough though. It's a tough game. I mean,

00:26:24.019 --> 00:26:26.519
that's just probably due to like game limitations

00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:28.740
and stuff, right? Yeah. Yeah. Just the controls

00:26:28.740 --> 00:26:31.059
are kind of muddled, but they're not, they're

00:26:31.059 --> 00:26:33.400
not the worst. Um, but I hope to have that done

00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:35.059
soon and have that video up. So that'd be cool.

00:26:35.359 --> 00:26:37.640
Yeah. I actually would like to watch that one

00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:39.000
cause I haven't played that game in so long.

00:26:39.140 --> 00:26:42.019
Yeah. I hope to have it up soon. Oh, I started,

00:26:42.099 --> 00:26:44.839
I got, I guess Walmart had like extended, uh,

00:26:44.980 --> 00:26:47.900
black Friday deals. And I got God of War and

00:26:47.900 --> 00:26:53.019
Final Fantasy 16 for like $15 each. Nice. Damn.

00:26:53.359 --> 00:26:54.880
Yeah, I know, dude. I was like, oh, shit. And

00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:57.779
then I started Ragnarok this week, so. Oh, yeah.

00:26:58.000 --> 00:27:01.640
Nice. It's so good, bro. It's so good. It's kind

00:27:01.640 --> 00:27:03.740
of been kind of slow, so I'm kind of waiting

00:27:03.740 --> 00:27:05.539
it for it to start up. But it's, I mean, it's

00:27:05.539 --> 00:27:08.059
good, though. It's been pretty good. yeah it

00:27:08.059 --> 00:27:10.400
definitely is like a slow burn especially for

00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:12.420
a god of war game yeah because i remember the

00:27:12.420 --> 00:27:14.819
first one i like you it's immediately like you

00:27:14.819 --> 00:27:16.380
just started like holy crap what is happening

00:27:16.380 --> 00:27:19.519
this one's been a little bit slower but it does

00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:21.799
pick up yeah i'm sure it will i've only played

00:27:21.799 --> 00:27:24.119
for like five hours so but definitely not my

00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:27.039
favorite but it is it is good yeah i think i

00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:28.480
think i'm gonna like the first one better too

00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:31.420
but we'll see we'll see how it goes but yeah

00:27:31.420 --> 00:27:34.599
that is the one of the games that i platinum

00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:37.339
and uh that I haven't done in a very long time.

00:27:37.700 --> 00:27:40.539
What, the first one or Ragnarok? Ragnarok. Oh,

00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:43.279
okay. Nice, yeah. Yeah, I plotted Ragnarok. Nice,

00:27:43.319 --> 00:27:45.079
yeah. Yeah, I'm looking forward to digging into

00:27:45.079 --> 00:27:47.359
that, so I'm sure that'll be good. Yeah, it's

00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:49.680
worth it, dude. Definitely worth it. I still

00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:52.079
need to play that game. Dude, I didn't like...

00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:53.779
Well, I don't want to ruin too much, but I didn't

00:27:53.779 --> 00:27:55.640
really like the ending too much. Oh, yeah? Okay.

00:27:56.400 --> 00:27:58.220
Dude, every God of War game is so damn good.

00:27:58.299 --> 00:28:00.700
They're all so good. Yeah, there hasn't been,

00:28:00.779 --> 00:28:03.099
like, a bad one. Even the PSP ones were freaking

00:28:03.099 --> 00:28:06.309
good. like there was an old java phone one that

00:28:06.309 --> 00:28:08.529
was actually like for a java phone game was actually

00:28:08.529 --> 00:28:11.230
pretty good so yeah like everything god of war

00:28:11.230 --> 00:28:13.990
is good it's crazy what was the one that was

00:28:13.990 --> 00:28:16.789
on the ps3 that nobody liked what was the name

00:28:16.789 --> 00:28:19.349
of that one ascension yeah ascension yep yep

00:28:19.349 --> 00:28:21.950
that one was that's probably the weakest one

00:28:21.950 --> 00:28:24.970
but i still liked it for sure they changed the

00:28:24.970 --> 00:28:27.410
parry system and it made it so convoluted and

00:28:27.410 --> 00:28:28.769
stupid in that one i don't know what the fuck

00:28:28.769 --> 00:28:30.920
they were thinking You have to, like, block and

00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:33.799
then press a button for parry. Why? Yeah. Why?

00:28:34.779 --> 00:28:36.480
Made no fucking sense. Oh, yeah, I did play that.

00:28:36.539 --> 00:28:39.140
I played that one. Yeah. Yeah, it was all right.

00:28:39.380 --> 00:28:41.759
Yeah. I mean, it was still good, but that kind

00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:44.700
of ruined it. But anyway. All right. That's it

00:28:44.700 --> 00:28:47.400
for me. So let's go ahead and jump over to the

00:28:47.400 --> 00:28:49.859
game. We've been playing Dino Crisis for the

00:28:49.859 --> 00:29:52.500
PlayStation. A mysterious catastrophe. Three

00:29:52.500 --> 00:29:54.440
years ago, an award -winning research scientist,

00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:57.039
Dr. Edward Kirk, perished in an accident during

00:29:57.039 --> 00:29:59.220
one of his experiments. He had been working on

00:29:59.220 --> 00:30:01.599
the development of pure energy technology, codenamed

00:30:01.599 --> 00:30:04.599
Third Energy. The unexpected explosion occurred

00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:06.259
soon after the government terminated funding

00:30:06.259 --> 00:30:09.039
of the research, assessing the process as non

00:30:09.039 --> 00:30:11.559
-productive. To most of the world, the entire

00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:13.660
incident was just an insignificant piece of news.

00:30:13.980 --> 00:30:16.819
Earlier this year, a military agent sent to Ibis

00:30:16.819 --> 00:30:18.960
Island on a separate mission brought back surprising

00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:21.779
information. It reported that Dr. Kirk was alive

00:30:21.779 --> 00:30:23.920
and continuing his research at a military facility

00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:27.319
in the Borginia Republic. Now Special Agent Regina

00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:29.619
heads for the isolated island. She's accompanied

00:30:29.619 --> 00:30:32.079
by her team, an elite task force specially trained

00:30:32.079 --> 00:30:34.619
to handle sensitive military situations. Each

00:30:34.619 --> 00:30:36.440
member is a specialist in a particular field.

00:30:36.819 --> 00:30:39.480
Their assignment? Infiltrate Ibis Island, find

00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:42.140
Dr. Kirk, and return him unharmed to the home

00:30:42.140 --> 00:30:44.599
country. It's supposed to be just another routine

00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:53.119
mission. Dawn of Crisis was developed and published

00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:57.299
by Capcom for the PlayStation in 1999. It was

00:30:57.299 --> 00:30:59.900
released two months before Resident Evil 3, so

00:30:59.900 --> 00:31:01.140
they must have been working on it at the same

00:31:01.140 --> 00:31:05.720
time as RE3, which is pretty cool. Yeah. Were

00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:10.460
you guys able to complete this game? Yes. Yeah.

00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:14.819
No. You didn't beat it? No, I didn't beat this

00:31:14.819 --> 00:31:18.819
game. How far did you make it? Oh, I don't know.

00:31:19.130 --> 00:31:20.990
Oh, okay. I mean, a couple of hours? Not very

00:31:20.990 --> 00:31:23.130
far, I'm sure. Probably like two or three hours.

00:31:23.369 --> 00:31:27.130
Oh, yeah? I beat it once. Did any of you guys

00:31:27.130 --> 00:31:30.910
do multiple endings? Yeah, I did two out of three.

00:31:31.009 --> 00:31:33.970
I'm trying to work on the third. Yeah, I got

00:31:33.970 --> 00:31:36.829
one ending. I don't know. I kind of want to go

00:31:36.829 --> 00:31:38.069
back to it again, but I don't know if I'm going

00:31:38.069 --> 00:31:40.230
to. We'll see. I mean, it's definitely easier

00:31:40.230 --> 00:31:43.069
the second time. Yeah, this game's not incredibly

00:31:43.069 --> 00:31:45.609
difficult. I was struggling at first with it

00:31:45.609 --> 00:31:47.730
a little bit because I was trying to shoot everything.

00:31:48.659 --> 00:31:51.000
And then I didn't realize that you just kind

00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:53.220
of, honestly, you just kind of ignore the dinosaurs,

00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:55.539
really. You just run around them, and the game

00:31:55.539 --> 00:31:58.859
gets so much easier that way. You play as Regina,

00:31:58.960 --> 00:32:02.180
and you are sent on a secret mission to an island

00:32:02.180 --> 00:32:06.940
where you are looking for a doctor who has been

00:32:06.940 --> 00:32:09.960
presumed dead for three years. And when you get

00:32:09.960 --> 00:32:12.579
there, you find out that he was running, of course

00:32:12.579 --> 00:32:13.779
there's going to be spoilers when we talk about

00:32:13.779 --> 00:32:16.740
these games, but he was running experiments looking

00:32:16.740 --> 00:32:19.390
for like a third energy. Kind of like an unlimited

00:32:19.390 --> 00:32:22.970
power supply. And through these experiments,

00:32:23.170 --> 00:32:25.589
he accidentally opened up time portals and they

00:32:25.589 --> 00:32:28.369
brought dinosaurs to the island. And so that's

00:32:28.369 --> 00:32:30.549
kind of the... It kind of brought carnage upon

00:32:30.549 --> 00:32:32.450
the island and now you guys are there going through

00:32:32.450 --> 00:32:34.750
it. I kind of like this story on this game because

00:32:34.750 --> 00:32:38.829
it's got like an 80s sci -fi movie feel to it.

00:32:38.910 --> 00:32:41.690
And it's not like... It's not like over the top,

00:32:41.730 --> 00:32:43.410
you know? It's actually a pretty grounded story.

00:32:44.289 --> 00:32:48.779
Yeah, it's not... Didn't... go too crazy with

00:32:48.779 --> 00:32:51.900
it it's you know you can understand it you can

00:32:51.900 --> 00:32:53.839
follow it pretty easily right they didn't add

00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:56.640
a lot of unnecessary shit into it you know yeah

00:32:56.640 --> 00:32:59.420
it's a survival horror i guess but they call

00:32:59.420 --> 00:33:02.880
it a panic survival or survival panic game i

00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:05.240
think is what capcom called it which i agree

00:33:05.240 --> 00:33:06.539
with because i don't think this game's really

00:33:06.539 --> 00:33:10.880
that scary no no it's not scary i mean even like

00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:12.599
the dinosaurs didn't really even scare me that

00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:14.920
much they were just kind of cool You'd probably

00:33:14.920 --> 00:33:17.440
shoot yourself if you're like eight years old.

00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:21.180
Yeah, that's true. When the PS1 was at its peak,

00:33:21.220 --> 00:33:25.420
sure. But no, definitely nothing scary. I mean,

00:33:25.420 --> 00:33:28.059
there's really no jump scares or anything. I

00:33:28.059 --> 00:33:29.579
mean, there's a couple, but I don't think they

00:33:29.579 --> 00:33:32.000
really hit very well. I mean, you know something's

00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:35.660
going to happen. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The thing

00:33:35.660 --> 00:33:37.420
with survival horror games to me is that you

00:33:37.420 --> 00:33:42.240
always are given these giant guns and... you

00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.119
just feel safe with them but then they don't

00:33:44.119 --> 00:33:46.259
do anything anyway so i don't know i feel like

00:33:46.259 --> 00:33:48.160
guns in survival horror games is not a good idea

00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:51.000
well this is just a very resident evil game though

00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:54.980
with that i know yeah like well i mean granted

00:33:54.980 --> 00:33:58.279
you are shooting a dinosaur i know i know yeah

00:33:58.279 --> 00:34:00.940
with the freaking nine millimeter pistols like

00:34:00.940 --> 00:34:03.920
it's not really gonna do much i know i just i

00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:06.539
feel like i agree i agree the pistol is definitely

00:34:06.539 --> 00:34:10.190
severely um underpowered in this game i just

00:34:10.190 --> 00:34:11.690
feel like rule of rose kind of did it right with

00:34:11.690 --> 00:34:13.889
that because you are a sick little child given

00:34:13.889 --> 00:34:17.230
like a like a bat you know i don't know i just

00:34:17.230 --> 00:34:19.449
feel like that worked better but anyway um so

00:34:19.449 --> 00:34:21.530
you yeah so it's a survival game you come into

00:34:21.530 --> 00:34:24.329
the island and you have to basically find your

00:34:24.329 --> 00:34:26.869
way around you're solving puzzles you can find

00:34:26.869 --> 00:34:29.570
ammo and other weapons and you're basically just

00:34:29.570 --> 00:34:32.429
uh running around avoiding the dinosaurs there's

00:34:32.429 --> 00:34:34.230
all kinds of it's not really actually i was gonna

00:34:34.230 --> 00:34:35.650
say there's all kinds of dinosaurs but there's

00:34:35.650 --> 00:34:38.960
really not that many There's kind of like four

00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:41.579
or five. Yeah, it's actually kind of not a lot.

00:34:41.619 --> 00:34:44.119
There's like two types of velociraptors, the

00:34:44.119 --> 00:34:47.139
T -Rex, the little compies. I think that was

00:34:47.139 --> 00:34:49.239
it, right? Was there something else? And the

00:34:49.239 --> 00:34:52.099
theosaurus or whatever the hell they were. Oh,

00:34:52.099 --> 00:34:54.900
the pterodonts? Or the pterodactyls? Oh, those

00:34:54.900 --> 00:34:57.099
guys? Yep. And then, no, the really hard ones

00:34:57.099 --> 00:34:59.440
at the end. Oh, yeah, like the other type of

00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:01.260
velociraptors. There's like three types of velociraptors.

00:35:01.500 --> 00:35:03.360
Well, they were called something else. Yeah,

00:35:03.360 --> 00:35:05.059
I know. I think they're made up anyway. I don't

00:35:05.059 --> 00:35:08.300
think they're real. Yeah. But, yeah, that was

00:35:08.300 --> 00:35:09.480
it. That was all there really was. There really

00:35:09.480 --> 00:35:11.139
wasn't much. I was going to say, there's really

00:35:11.139 --> 00:35:13.280
not a lot of, like, there's not a lot of, like,

00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:14.880
set pieces in this game, you know? There's not,

00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:17.360
like, a lot of big moments. Like, you play, I

00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:18.460
mean, I know it's because of the NOLA game, but

00:35:18.460 --> 00:35:20.039
if you play, like, newer games now, there's always,

00:35:20.079 --> 00:35:22.380
like, some kind of, like, you know, big set piece

00:35:22.380 --> 00:35:24.179
one after the other. This one didn't really have

00:35:24.179 --> 00:35:25.920
a lot of that. I mean, there's a couple of times

00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:27.400
with the T -Rex and everything, which was cool,

00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:29.840
but one of the cool things was this game had,

00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:32.599
like, branching story paths, so you could, uh,

00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:35.099
there was two people in your team. There's Gale

00:35:35.099 --> 00:35:39.039
and Rick. And Gale was kind of the like the hard

00:35:39.039 --> 00:35:41.019
punching go getter kind of guy. And then Rick

00:35:41.019 --> 00:35:44.320
was kind of the more like planning out like,

00:35:44.380 --> 00:35:47.760
yeah, tech savvy kind of guy. It was like, what,

00:35:47.780 --> 00:35:50.420
three choices I think you could make where you

00:35:50.420 --> 00:35:52.300
could either go Rick's way or Gale's way. And

00:35:52.300 --> 00:35:54.639
the story, I don't think the story really changed,

00:35:54.639 --> 00:35:56.400
but just kind of the gameplay and the mission

00:35:56.400 --> 00:35:57.860
changed a little bit, depending on which one

00:35:57.860 --> 00:36:02.360
you chose. I think there's four. What? I think

00:36:02.360 --> 00:36:04.239
there's four decisions. Oh, four decisions. Okay,

00:36:04.320 --> 00:36:07.139
yeah. Yeah, you're probably right. I picked Rick's

00:36:07.139 --> 00:36:08.920
way every time the first time that I played through.

00:36:09.300 --> 00:36:11.139
I think I'm going to go through and play Gale's

00:36:11.139 --> 00:36:15.059
way every time next time. It's really not that

00:36:15.059 --> 00:36:16.719
much different. I don't think it is either, yeah.

00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:19.159
I think Rick's just have a little bit more puzzles,

00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:23.019
right? Yeah, yeah, for sure. Rick's are like

00:36:23.019 --> 00:36:26.300
more safe if you don't want to waste ammo or

00:36:26.300 --> 00:36:29.679
take damage. Which, speaking of the puzzles,

00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:31.019
what did you guys think of the puzzles in this

00:36:31.019 --> 00:36:33.320
game? I liked them, man. I thought they were

00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:37.280
pretty intuitive. And they did get a little hard

00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:41.119
at some time. Yeah, I agree. Usually when I'm

00:36:41.119 --> 00:36:43.820
playing these older survival horror games, I

00:36:43.820 --> 00:36:45.840
need to look up a guide. Because sometimes they

00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:48.159
just have puzzles where you don't know what the

00:36:48.159 --> 00:36:50.199
hell is going on. But I gotta say, the puzzles

00:36:50.199 --> 00:36:51.559
in this game were actually pretty straightforward.

00:36:51.940 --> 00:36:54.159
I didn't actually have any trouble. I didn't

00:36:54.159 --> 00:36:56.980
have to use a guide at all for these. Yeah, I

00:36:56.980 --> 00:36:58.260
agree. I think they were pretty well designed.

00:37:00.059 --> 00:37:02.880
They were made pretty well to convey what you

00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:05.219
needed to do, but they weren't easy to figure

00:37:05.219 --> 00:37:07.099
out. So yeah, I think they were done pretty well.

00:37:07.480 --> 00:37:09.239
I was going to say, I didn't have to use a guide

00:37:09.239 --> 00:37:11.599
for any of them either. I did have to use a guide

00:37:11.599 --> 00:37:13.460
twice to figure out where the fuck I was supposed

00:37:13.460 --> 00:37:17.500
to go. Yeah, same. I just straight up used a

00:37:17.500 --> 00:37:21.059
guide for most of it, because I don't know. It

00:37:21.059 --> 00:37:23.659
just didn't go that way for me, man. Yeah. There

00:37:23.659 --> 00:37:25.199
was only two times I was just like, where the

00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:27.079
hell do I go? And both times it's because I just

00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:29.159
missed a stupid pixel on the wall I was supposed

00:37:29.159 --> 00:37:33.210
to... click but yeah yeah and then i just the

00:37:33.210 --> 00:37:36.989
uh the key codes because i didn't play for like

00:37:36.989 --> 00:37:39.969
a week at a time i kept forgetting what yeah

00:37:39.969 --> 00:37:42.429
like how to do them so one of the puzzles yeah

00:37:42.429 --> 00:37:45.130
was was called the ddk which you had to get two

00:37:45.130 --> 00:37:47.250
pieces they were like uh disk drives and you

00:37:47.250 --> 00:37:48.949
get you had to get two pieces and it was two

00:37:48.949 --> 00:37:51.449
parts of a code and what it was is there would

00:37:51.449 --> 00:37:54.239
be a bunch of letters on the screen on the top

00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:56.260
part and then the bottom part we have a bunch

00:37:56.260 --> 00:37:58.980
of other letters or other numbers and you kind

00:37:58.980 --> 00:38:01.019
of had to figure out how they went together so

00:38:01.019 --> 00:38:02.880
that you could eliminate letters from the top

00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:06.019
part and figure out the password which was it

00:38:06.019 --> 00:38:08.179
was a pretty cool idea uh some of those later

00:38:08.179 --> 00:38:09.780
ones got tough man i was kind of like how the

00:38:09.780 --> 00:38:12.960
hell does this work i don't understand yeah the

00:38:12.960 --> 00:38:14.900
later ones then they like added numbers in the

00:38:14.900 --> 00:38:18.619
top yeah That's what I just like forgot what

00:38:18.619 --> 00:38:21.300
I had to do with everything. Well, they weren't

00:38:21.300 --> 00:38:22.719
always the same though. Like some of them were

00:38:22.719 --> 00:38:24.320
different than the other ones, you know, like

00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:25.960
some of them were like you had to add the letters.

00:38:26.019 --> 00:38:27.739
Some of them we had to remove the letters. And

00:38:27.739 --> 00:38:30.000
then you had to really like remove the column.

00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:32.679
Yeah. But I thought they were pretty fun. I thought

00:38:32.679 --> 00:38:36.139
they were intuitive. Yeah. Yeah. I thought they

00:38:36.139 --> 00:38:39.460
were pretty good too. That's actually probably

00:38:39.460 --> 00:38:41.780
one of the better aspects of the game. Yeah.

00:38:41.860 --> 00:38:46.300
I think so too. Uh, the, the, um, The combat

00:38:46.300 --> 00:38:49.619
in this game is, I don't know. I don't even know

00:38:49.619 --> 00:38:51.219
if you call it combat because all you can do

00:38:51.219 --> 00:38:54.179
is shoot a gun. There's no melee, right? There

00:38:54.179 --> 00:38:58.679
was no melee? No. Yeah. So all you could do was

00:38:58.679 --> 00:39:00.360
shoot. You had like three weapons, I think, right?

00:39:00.480 --> 00:39:02.699
Handgun, shotgun, and the grenade launcher. Was

00:39:02.699 --> 00:39:05.420
that it? Yeah. And you could kind of upgrade

00:39:05.420 --> 00:39:10.440
them. Did the upgrades do anything? Yeah, I think

00:39:10.440 --> 00:39:13.099
they made them stronger. They make them more

00:39:13.099 --> 00:39:17.630
powerful? Mm -hmm. Okay. And then, so you would

00:39:17.630 --> 00:39:19.349
have to aim at the dinosaur. There was kind of

00:39:19.349 --> 00:39:21.050
like, there was kind of like auto aim in this

00:39:21.050 --> 00:39:23.269
game, but it did not seem to work half the time.

00:39:24.050 --> 00:39:26.130
Sometimes it does. Sometimes it doesn't. Yeah.

00:39:26.190 --> 00:39:28.110
Especially with like with the pistol, you had

00:39:28.110 --> 00:39:30.710
to be like right up against the dinosaur to make

00:39:30.710 --> 00:39:33.230
sure you didn't miss. Yeah. I mean, sometimes

00:39:33.230 --> 00:39:35.010
with the shotgun too, like you would only have

00:39:35.010 --> 00:39:37.750
so many like darts and you'd shoot like two and

00:39:37.750 --> 00:39:39.349
you'd miss and you're like, son of a bitch, man.

00:39:39.849 --> 00:39:42.829
Yeah. You had to make sure you were aiming at

00:39:42.829 --> 00:39:46.360
them. Yeah. Which is kind of hard sometimes.

00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:51.199
The camera angles are actually not that bad in

00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:53.039
this game. They're not awful. They're pretty

00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:56.219
forgiving. Yeah. But some of them are kind of

00:39:56.219 --> 00:39:58.639
a pain. Yeah, so that's another thing. This game

00:39:58.639 --> 00:40:01.280
has fixed camera angles. So sometimes you would

00:40:01.280 --> 00:40:03.039
walk into a room, you would hear the dinosaur,

00:40:03.340 --> 00:40:06.260
but he'd be in another part of the camera angle

00:40:06.260 --> 00:40:08.639
that you couldn't necessarily see. And I think

00:40:08.639 --> 00:40:10.039
that's why they had the auto -aiming, because

00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:12.179
you would... aim at the dinosaur but you still

00:40:12.179 --> 00:40:13.940
sometimes had to wait for them to come into the

00:40:13.940 --> 00:40:15.579
camera view before you would shoot because you

00:40:15.579 --> 00:40:18.760
would miss otherwise yeah um which like you said

00:40:18.760 --> 00:40:21.760
it wasn't it wasn't awful but it's still it was

00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:23.900
still annoying for sure compared to like resident

00:40:23.900 --> 00:40:26.099
evil this was way better yeah i've never played

00:40:26.099 --> 00:40:30.840
definitely yeah i it's been a long time but yeah

00:40:30.840 --> 00:40:34.199
i think they went more with like a you know artistic

00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:38.239
camera angle i know in this in resident evil

00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:40.719
they used uh pre -rendered backgrounds this does

00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:44.260
not this has a complete 3d object uh backgrounds

00:40:44.260 --> 00:40:47.440
on this one so i mean gameplay wise i don't think

00:40:47.440 --> 00:40:50.539
that really changes much but there was also another

00:40:50.539 --> 00:40:53.800
thing another mechanic to this game where you

00:40:53.800 --> 00:40:55.679
could pick up items so you know you had your

00:40:55.679 --> 00:40:58.099
health they had resuscitations which would like

00:40:58.099 --> 00:41:00.900
just bring you back to life um and then they

00:41:00.900 --> 00:41:04.150
had these mixer things like aids and and uh i

00:41:04.150 --> 00:41:05.349
forgot the other one's called but you could like

00:41:05.349 --> 00:41:07.989
mix stuff together and make like stronger and

00:41:07.989 --> 00:41:10.750
newer items which that system was actually pretty

00:41:10.750 --> 00:41:13.550
complicated i was looking at so i decided when

00:41:13.550 --> 00:41:15.369
i want to look stuff up now for games i'm going

00:41:15.369 --> 00:41:17.110
to start using like the prima guides you guys

00:41:17.110 --> 00:41:20.489
remember the prima guides no okay they were just

00:41:20.489 --> 00:41:23.190
like official like you know guidebooks for games

00:41:23.190 --> 00:41:26.710
back in the 90s and 2000s so oh yeah yeah yeah

00:41:26.710 --> 00:41:28.449
so i'm going to start looking those up when i

00:41:28.449 --> 00:41:29.769
need help i'm not going to like look on like

00:41:29.769 --> 00:41:32.599
you know like wikis and stuff i'm gonna try and

00:41:32.599 --> 00:41:35.619
use like the stuff that was available back then

00:41:35.619 --> 00:41:38.280
so that's that's a good idea yeah i'm gonna start

00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:39.920
doing that so i used the prima guide for this

00:41:39.920 --> 00:41:41.760
one and they had like a full chart of all the

00:41:41.760 --> 00:41:43.500
mixing stuff and it was actually pretty complicated

00:41:43.500 --> 00:41:46.579
what you could do in there yeah um i didn't really

00:41:46.579 --> 00:41:48.840
use it that much i honestly i only really used

00:41:48.840 --> 00:41:51.559
it when i needed room in my inventory yeah dude

00:41:51.559 --> 00:41:54.360
because you can't get rid of stuff yeah that

00:41:54.360 --> 00:41:56.639
was weird right you can't drop shit so weird

00:41:57.150 --> 00:42:00.110
The only way you can is you unlock those boxes

00:42:00.110 --> 00:42:01.849
on the wall. Yeah. And then that was the other

00:42:01.849 --> 00:42:04.250
thing too. Yeah. So they had boxes throughout

00:42:04.250 --> 00:42:06.349
the station where you had to use plugs to open

00:42:06.349 --> 00:42:09.190
them and then you could get like, um, ammo and,

00:42:09.250 --> 00:42:11.989
and, uh, health. And there was another one of

00:42:11.989 --> 00:42:14.949
just like, was it just the AIDS and stuff? Yeah.

00:42:15.110 --> 00:42:17.309
Okay. But yeah, that was weird. You couldn't,

00:42:17.309 --> 00:42:19.409
you only had like what? 12 slots. I think it

00:42:19.409 --> 00:42:22.829
was. I don't remember. Yeah. Something like that.

00:42:22.869 --> 00:42:24.690
But yeah, you couldn't drop stuff. You couldn't

00:42:24.690 --> 00:42:27.570
like. and there's some things you couldn't use

00:42:27.570 --> 00:42:30.250
unless you mix them so yeah it was weird and

00:42:30.250 --> 00:42:32.969
the amount of age you get in this game dude yeah

00:42:32.969 --> 00:42:34.809
there's so many i think they did it on purpose

00:42:34.809 --> 00:42:38.210
to take up space probably yeah yeah because i

00:42:38.210 --> 00:42:40.510
needed health more than i needed that shit and

00:42:40.510 --> 00:42:43.789
yeah the health of this game is is slim pickings

00:42:43.789 --> 00:42:46.110
it is a little bit once you start opening up

00:42:46.110 --> 00:42:49.409
those boxes it helps a lot but yeah yeah well

00:42:49.409 --> 00:42:54.030
again once I'm terrible with that once I don't

00:42:54.030 --> 00:42:56.590
want to use them. I think I only opened two boxes

00:42:56.590 --> 00:42:59.429
in the entire game. Yeah, I made it towards the

00:42:59.429 --> 00:43:00.909
end. I'm like, I'm going to start using this

00:43:00.909 --> 00:43:05.110
stuff. Yeah, it's like 20 plugs. Yeah, the mixing

00:43:05.110 --> 00:43:08.289
is... I didn't really mess with it too much.

00:43:08.730 --> 00:43:11.409
Yeah, I didn't either. I don't know if Eric or

00:43:11.409 --> 00:43:14.030
Ryan or Jacob and Ryan, if you guys ever even

00:43:14.030 --> 00:43:17.110
used it. What, the plugs to open the boxes? No,

00:43:17.150 --> 00:43:21.420
the mixing. Did you mix anything? Oh. Yeah, if

00:43:21.420 --> 00:43:23.780
I'm being honest, I only used it a few times,

00:43:23.840 --> 00:43:27.039
and the reason I did that was to upgrade my med

00:43:27.039 --> 00:43:31.119
kits. I was just like, eh, I don't have to care

00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:34.440
about this. I got my ammo, but that's about it.

00:43:34.739 --> 00:43:36.760
But you don't get the health aids that much.

00:43:37.699 --> 00:43:42.300
Yeah. The anesthetic ones don't really do anything

00:43:42.300 --> 00:43:46.199
for the med packs. Right, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I've

00:43:46.199 --> 00:43:49.340
only used it like once or twice just to figure

00:43:49.340 --> 00:43:51.420
it out. And then I was like, this is not worth

00:43:51.420 --> 00:43:54.780
it. Yeah. That's all I cared about was the health.

00:43:55.019 --> 00:43:57.659
Right. You can actually make the poison darts

00:43:57.659 --> 00:44:01.099
stronger. You have to use resuscitation. Yeah,

00:44:01.099 --> 00:44:03.840
yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, then you can also

00:44:03.840 --> 00:44:06.199
make the sleeping darts stronger, too. Mm -hmm.

00:44:06.260 --> 00:44:09.500
Yeah. Also, this game has continues, which is

00:44:09.500 --> 00:44:12.980
really weird to me. It has a limited set of continues

00:44:12.980 --> 00:44:16.309
in this game. And then once you run out of them,

00:44:16.349 --> 00:44:18.570
then you just go back to your save. It's weird.

00:44:18.630 --> 00:44:19.750
I don't really understand the point of them.

00:44:20.110 --> 00:44:23.289
I don't either because I never used them. I don't

00:44:23.289 --> 00:44:25.250
know why they did that. Yeah, it's really weird.

00:44:25.650 --> 00:44:28.110
Me and Jacob were looking at this game too. The

00:44:28.110 --> 00:44:31.090
Japanese version has like 20 continues. They

00:44:31.090 --> 00:44:35.469
changed it to five. Wow, that's kind of rare

00:44:35.469 --> 00:44:37.849
that the American version is harder than the

00:44:37.849 --> 00:44:40.469
Japanese version. Usually it was the other way

00:44:40.469 --> 00:44:43.579
around, but okay. I think I read too that they

00:44:43.579 --> 00:44:45.460
added more dinosaurs to the American version.

00:44:46.179 --> 00:44:48.360
I think I read that somewhere too. Yeah. Yeah.

00:44:48.559 --> 00:44:51.119
Which I find odd because there's really not that

00:44:51.119 --> 00:44:52.699
many to begin with. Yeah, I know, right? Yeah.

00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:56.900
Which, you know, with the continues, I did like

00:44:56.900 --> 00:45:00.320
that this game, instead of giving you an item

00:45:00.320 --> 00:45:02.639
to make you save, they just made an entire room

00:45:02.639 --> 00:45:04.559
a save point. So anytime you left that room,

00:45:04.719 --> 00:45:06.460
it would ask you if you wanted to save. I really

00:45:06.460 --> 00:45:07.820
liked that design. I think that was pretty cool.

00:45:08.320 --> 00:45:10.360
I think I struggled with that a little bit in

00:45:10.360 --> 00:45:13.199
the beginning. But then I kind of realized that

00:45:13.199 --> 00:45:15.480
I can just kind of run back. Yeah, you can just

00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:18.019
go back to the room and save it anytime. I was

00:45:18.019 --> 00:45:20.619
just trying to learn the map and find out where

00:45:20.619 --> 00:45:23.820
it is. Which this map is, it's not that big.

00:45:24.539 --> 00:45:26.980
No. But when you don't know where the hell you're

00:45:26.980 --> 00:45:28.940
going. Well, that's why you open the map open.

00:45:29.639 --> 00:45:32.519
Well, that map, that in -game minute, it's not

00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:35.550
really that helpful. it's a little confusing

00:45:35.550 --> 00:45:36.949
because it doesn't, it'll tell you what room

00:45:36.949 --> 00:45:38.809
you're in, but it doesn't tell you what direction

00:45:38.809 --> 00:45:41.489
or anything. Yeah. Yeah. You have to go to the

00:45:41.489 --> 00:45:44.469
direction of your face or something. Yeah. Yeah.

00:45:45.250 --> 00:45:48.110
I mean, in that vein, I mean, the game actually

00:45:48.110 --> 00:45:50.610
gave you a pretty good direction on, on where

00:45:50.610 --> 00:45:52.829
to go. I mean, I don't think I ever felt like,

00:45:52.849 --> 00:45:55.289
I don't think I ever felt when I was playing

00:45:55.289 --> 00:45:58.030
this game. Well, just like, what the fuck do

00:45:58.030 --> 00:45:59.789
I do now? You know what I mean? Like I always

00:45:59.789 --> 00:46:02.510
knew what I needed to do. I just didn't always

00:46:02.510 --> 00:46:06.050
necessarily know where exactly to go, but I don't

00:46:06.050 --> 00:46:07.130
think there was ever a point where I was like,

00:46:07.210 --> 00:46:08.710
I don't know what the fuck I need to do right

00:46:08.710 --> 00:46:11.369
now. I always knew like I needed to go find the

00:46:11.369 --> 00:46:13.710
door for this key or I need to go find this room

00:46:13.710 --> 00:46:16.389
or I need to go get this item. So I feel like

00:46:16.389 --> 00:46:18.110
the game had a pretty good set of direction for

00:46:18.110 --> 00:46:21.269
that, you know? Yeah. The ending is definitely

00:46:21.269 --> 00:46:24.389
a little bit more confusing, but. Oh yeah. Like

00:46:24.389 --> 00:46:27.909
at the end where you're trying to find the stuff.

00:46:28.630 --> 00:46:32.599
You did Rick's method for the. the uh two things

00:46:32.599 --> 00:46:35.400
that you had to make yes i did that one yeah

00:46:35.400 --> 00:46:37.579
yeah that one's yeah it's a little complicated

00:46:37.579 --> 00:46:41.480
yeah yeah yeah actually that one puzzle with

00:46:41.480 --> 00:46:43.840
the noises i actually i actually just brute force

00:46:43.840 --> 00:46:47.539
that one yeah and i got it pretty quickly did

00:46:47.539 --> 00:46:49.920
you find the thing on the wall after i after

00:46:49.920 --> 00:46:54.920
i found the passcode yeah yeah yeah i got lucky

00:46:54.920 --> 00:46:56.699
dude i was just like oh let me try this and i

00:46:56.699 --> 00:47:00.280
i guessed it before i got the uh the item but

00:47:00.929 --> 00:47:03.389
Okay. Yeah, that one's a little difficult. It

00:47:03.389 --> 00:47:06.210
is. Yeah, it's tough. But, I mean, you know,

00:47:06.210 --> 00:47:07.349
this game, like we said, this game's not too

00:47:07.349 --> 00:47:09.489
hard. And honestly, it's kind of short, really.

00:47:09.789 --> 00:47:13.809
I think without really trying, I beat it in under

00:47:13.809 --> 00:47:17.869
six hours. Yeah, I think my first run was seven.

00:47:18.230 --> 00:47:23.010
Just under seven. And then my second one, I think

00:47:23.010 --> 00:47:25.670
I did it under, like, I think it was just under

00:47:25.670 --> 00:47:29.829
three hours. yeah it's what it's pretty easy

00:47:29.829 --> 00:47:32.989
it's really not that bad no it's not and that

00:47:32.989 --> 00:47:34.670
was because i was doing achievement stuff too

00:47:34.670 --> 00:47:38.389
yeah yeah yeah some of the little things that

00:47:38.389 --> 00:47:40.570
i like the little details i actually like too

00:47:40.570 --> 00:47:43.409
because i don't know if you notice but when you're

00:47:43.409 --> 00:47:45.170
talking to the com thing that's on your hand

00:47:45.170 --> 00:47:48.570
like it changes from green to red whether you're

00:47:48.570 --> 00:47:50.510
talking or listening yeah yeah that was cool

00:47:50.510 --> 00:47:52.030
i thought that was kind of cool just a nice little

00:47:52.030 --> 00:47:54.289
touch and then it had things like we're like

00:47:54.289 --> 00:47:55.969
sometimes the dinosaurs will actually knock the

00:47:55.969 --> 00:47:58.880
weapons out of your hand Yeah. Which was annoying.

00:47:58.960 --> 00:48:00.260
And then you got to go and grab your weapon.

00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:04.139
Yeah. Yeah. And then equip it again. Yeah. Yeah.

00:48:04.619 --> 00:48:06.639
That's another thing too. That was one thing

00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:09.719
I did not like about this game. Yeah. Your items.

00:48:10.260 --> 00:48:12.780
Sometimes you could just press X and the door

00:48:12.780 --> 00:48:14.760
would unlock. Sometimes you had to open up the

00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:17.440
menu and manually use the item. Yeah. Manually

00:48:17.440 --> 00:48:19.699
use the key or something. I don't understand

00:48:19.699 --> 00:48:21.900
why they just didn't make it all automatic or

00:48:21.900 --> 00:48:24.380
make it all manually use it. It made no sense

00:48:24.380 --> 00:48:26.840
to me. Yeah. And there's no rhyme or reason to

00:48:26.840 --> 00:48:29.320
it. That was just an odd choice. I don't know

00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:31.219
if it's something they just didn't code right

00:48:31.219 --> 00:48:33.420
or what. I don't know. That was weird. Yeah,

00:48:33.460 --> 00:48:35.820
it's got to be do something with the game mechanics.

00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:38.260
Yeah, I don't know. It was strange. But sometimes

00:48:38.260 --> 00:48:39.900
you're like, why is this not working? It's like,

00:48:39.940 --> 00:48:41.460
oh, because it has to actually open up the menu.

00:48:41.539 --> 00:48:45.300
Okay. Yeah. Yeah, it was weird. I don't know.

00:48:45.320 --> 00:48:49.260
It made no sense. No. I did like, like, again,

00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:50.940
there's just like a lot of little details, like

00:48:50.940 --> 00:48:54.980
the blood handprints on the wall. All the computers

00:48:54.980 --> 00:48:58.320
and stuff to look at. There's a lot of little

00:48:58.320 --> 00:49:01.420
details. One last thing I'd like to mention is

00:49:01.420 --> 00:49:04.780
I did like the fingerprint coder machine. I thought

00:49:04.780 --> 00:49:07.280
that was pretty cool how you had to find the

00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:09.719
corpses and then find the matching number for

00:49:09.719 --> 00:49:13.099
them and then you could recode ID cards and stuff.

00:49:13.199 --> 00:49:15.679
I thought that was pretty cool. Like I said,

00:49:15.699 --> 00:49:18.349
the puzzles are actually fun in this game. A

00:49:18.349 --> 00:49:20.550
little difficult sometimes, but I think this

00:49:20.550 --> 00:49:23.309
is more like a puzzle game than a horror game.

00:49:23.349 --> 00:49:25.170
I mean, really, yeah. Like I said, honestly,

00:49:25.409 --> 00:49:28.050
once you get to a point where you kind of get

00:49:28.050 --> 00:49:29.949
comfortable and you can just run around the dinosaurs.

00:49:30.150 --> 00:49:32.070
I mean, honestly, dude, I think in my playthrough,

00:49:32.210 --> 00:49:34.610
I didn't shoot more than like 10 times. Yeah.

00:49:35.409 --> 00:49:38.170
Like I would just run past the dinosaurs. You

00:49:38.170 --> 00:49:40.489
can play the entire game without firing a single

00:49:40.489 --> 00:49:42.369
shot. Yeah, I mean, pretty much. Other than like

00:49:42.369 --> 00:49:44.210
the one boss fight with a T -Rex or whatever.

00:49:44.369 --> 00:49:46.469
You don't even have to shoot at him. Oh, really?

00:49:47.099 --> 00:49:49.300
Yeah, that one achievement is you can't even

00:49:49.300 --> 00:49:52.179
aim. Okay, nice. You can beat the game without

00:49:52.179 --> 00:49:55.219
even shooting your gun. That's crazy. I guess

00:49:55.219 --> 00:49:57.119
you could do that. Could you do that in Resident

00:49:57.119 --> 00:50:01.400
Evil 2? I'm assuming so, right? Dude, it's been

00:50:01.400 --> 00:50:03.679
a long time since I played one. That was the

00:50:03.679 --> 00:50:06.219
only one I really played. I thought it was kind

00:50:06.219 --> 00:50:08.739
of cool the door sizes actually change based

00:50:08.739 --> 00:50:12.900
off how big they were. When you go through the

00:50:12.900 --> 00:50:15.039
hangar, doors are freaking huge. Oh yeah, it

00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:18.829
changes your model size. yeah and like the doors

00:50:18.829 --> 00:50:21.369
actually open different with different ways and

00:50:21.369 --> 00:50:23.829
stuff right yeah yeah so i thought that was cool

00:50:23.829 --> 00:50:26.429
it's cool left same with design from resident

00:50:26.429 --> 00:50:29.210
evil yeah like it's just things are different

00:50:29.210 --> 00:50:33.150
so i also like whether if you're hurt or not

00:50:33.150 --> 00:50:36.630
you like stumble across the stairs yeah that

00:50:36.630 --> 00:50:38.550
was the other thing there's no there was no hud

00:50:38.550 --> 00:50:40.469
right there's nothing on the screen i don't think

00:50:40.469 --> 00:50:44.190
so no no yeah so there your health bar was just

00:50:44.190 --> 00:50:47.110
like regina would be uh She would be somewhat

00:50:47.110 --> 00:50:49.730
hunched over, or she'd be really hunched over,

00:50:49.869 --> 00:50:51.670
and that's how you knew how close to death you

00:50:51.670 --> 00:50:54.389
were. Kind of like rule of the roads, I guess.

00:50:54.650 --> 00:50:56.530
Yeah, a little bit, yeah. I just like whether

00:50:56.530 --> 00:50:58.429
you're going up the stairs and you're hurt, you're

00:50:58.429 --> 00:51:01.409
hobbling really bad. Yeah, you're actually slower.

00:51:01.630 --> 00:51:03.989
And then you could also be bleeding, too, which

00:51:03.989 --> 00:51:06.590
would slowly bring your life down, but then you're

00:51:06.590 --> 00:51:08.449
leaving puddles of blood behind you and everything.

00:51:08.730 --> 00:51:12.710
Yeah. I think there's a lot of little details

00:51:12.710 --> 00:51:15.110
in this game. Yeah, I think that was all done

00:51:15.110 --> 00:51:17.960
pretty well, yeah. And then one last thing to

00:51:17.960 --> 00:51:20.579
mention is that once you beat the game in under,

00:51:20.659 --> 00:51:22.860
what is it, five and a half hours, I think it

00:51:22.860 --> 00:51:26.820
is, you get an extra mode. What's it called?

00:51:26.880 --> 00:51:29.780
Beast mode or something? Operation Wipeout. Operation

00:51:29.780 --> 00:51:32.300
Wipeout. That's what it's called. Beast mode?

00:51:32.739 --> 00:51:34.179
I don't know where that came from. I don't know.

00:51:36.500 --> 00:51:40.179
I don't know where that came from. So I didn't

00:51:40.179 --> 00:51:41.440
actually unlock it. I haven't played it. I think,

00:51:41.440 --> 00:51:42.619
Eric, you're the only one who's actually played

00:51:42.619 --> 00:51:46.989
it, right? Yeah. Jacob, did you play that? Yeah,

00:51:46.989 --> 00:51:49.150
I played a little. I think I played like the

00:51:49.150 --> 00:51:52.409
first two missions or so, but that's Voda. I

00:51:52.409 --> 00:51:54.389
know you were here watching me play it. Yeah,

00:51:54.389 --> 00:51:56.030
yeah. You guys want to explain what that is real

00:51:56.030 --> 00:51:59.809
quick? So basically they just kind of like put

00:51:59.809 --> 00:52:03.230
you in one part of the area of the map and you

00:52:03.230 --> 00:52:05.170
have to eliminate a certain amount of dinosaurs

00:52:05.170 --> 00:52:09.789
within a certain amount of time with like a certain

00:52:09.789 --> 00:52:14.119
amount of ammunition. And then when you kill

00:52:14.119 --> 00:52:15.780
all the dinosaurs, you have to run all the way

00:52:15.780 --> 00:52:18.380
back to the beginning of the level. Oh, okay.

00:52:18.440 --> 00:52:19.880
So it's kind of like a challenge mode, I guess.

00:52:20.559 --> 00:52:22.099
Basically, yeah. Oh, okay. I mean, that's pretty

00:52:22.099 --> 00:52:24.599
cool that they added that. Yeah, it was fun.

00:52:24.719 --> 00:52:27.699
I actually kind of enjoy doing it. Yeah. But

00:52:27.699 --> 00:52:31.260
there's only like three, right? Mm -hmm. But

00:52:31.260 --> 00:52:33.679
you can't play two or three unless you beat one

00:52:33.679 --> 00:52:38.300
and then beat two. Right, right. Yeah. But I

00:52:38.300 --> 00:52:40.719
thought it was fun. A nice little addition, you

00:52:40.719 --> 00:52:43.550
know? Yeah. A little reward for beating the game

00:52:43.550 --> 00:52:46.730
quick, yeah. Yeah. And then, yeah, also you get

00:52:46.730 --> 00:52:49.809
costumes once you beat the game. Yep, yep. Once.

00:52:50.010 --> 00:52:51.849
And then if you beat the game twice, you get

00:52:51.849 --> 00:52:53.769
another costume. They don't actually do anything,

00:52:53.869 --> 00:52:55.329
though, right? I think they're just costumes.

00:52:55.829 --> 00:52:59.070
The last costume, it'll change your gun. Yeah,

00:52:59.130 --> 00:53:00.789
I've seen that. They make it, like, caveman -like

00:53:00.789 --> 00:53:02.789
or whatever, yeah. Yeah, it looks like a bone.

00:53:03.630 --> 00:53:05.750
Yeah, yeah. And then the grenade launcher's a

00:53:05.750 --> 00:53:09.590
fish. That's so stupid. Yeah, it's... They're

00:53:09.590 --> 00:53:14.309
kind of goofy, but... Yeah. Again, it's... I

00:53:14.309 --> 00:53:16.550
kind of miss that stuff with new games. Yeah,

00:53:16.590 --> 00:53:18.550
I know. They don't do that much anymore. All

00:53:18.550 --> 00:53:21.710
right. Anything else about gameplay, guys? Controls,

00:53:21.710 --> 00:53:23.010
anything like that? I mean, I guess we can mention

00:53:23.010 --> 00:53:25.789
controls real quick. Yeah. This has like a...

00:53:25.789 --> 00:53:28.489
It's like a pseudo tank control. It's not like

00:53:28.489 --> 00:53:30.530
full tank control. I was going to say, for tank

00:53:30.530 --> 00:53:32.570
controls, they're actually pretty damn good.

00:53:32.769 --> 00:53:35.090
Yeah, they're not awful. They feel pretty good.

00:53:35.269 --> 00:53:37.800
I think the big difference in this, like... actual

00:53:37.800 --> 00:53:40.159
tank controls you cannot move left and right

00:53:40.159 --> 00:53:42.460
when you're moving forward and in this one you

00:53:42.460 --> 00:53:44.920
can move left and right while also moving forward

00:53:44.920 --> 00:53:47.820
in this game so yeah yeah but like because i

00:53:47.820 --> 00:53:49.500
think in like the old resident evil if you want

00:53:49.500 --> 00:53:51.659
to go to the left you have to stop turn to the

00:53:51.659 --> 00:53:54.980
left and then walk forward you know um so this

00:53:54.980 --> 00:53:57.139
one i think they finally really like got the

00:53:57.139 --> 00:53:59.840
got it down a little bit better i mean you still

00:53:59.840 --> 00:54:01.699
can't like turn like fully around if you want

00:54:01.699 --> 00:54:04.719
to go back you have to hold down back but Yeah.

00:54:04.800 --> 00:54:07.739
I mean, if you press the trigger, you do a 180.

00:54:08.000 --> 00:54:09.679
Right, you can immediately turn around and stuff.

00:54:09.900 --> 00:54:13.480
Yeah, so that's a nice addition. So it's definitely

00:54:13.480 --> 00:54:16.019
one of the better control schemes of this time,

00:54:16.119 --> 00:54:18.659
but it's still not, like, modernized, you know.

00:54:18.960 --> 00:54:21.500
If you're not used to those older controls, you're

00:54:21.500 --> 00:54:23.980
still going to struggle a little bit. Yeah, it

00:54:23.980 --> 00:54:26.139
took me a little bit to get used to them, but

00:54:26.139 --> 00:54:29.980
once I did, I... Yeah, it's not bad at all. Oh,

00:54:30.039 --> 00:54:33.289
they had those, like... pre -rendered videos

00:54:33.289 --> 00:54:35.730
for the dinosaur cutscenes and stuff yeah there's

00:54:35.730 --> 00:54:38.750
only there's two right two cutscenes two or three

00:54:38.750 --> 00:54:41.269
yeah something like that and then i think the

00:54:41.269 --> 00:54:45.789
ending yeah yeah yeah they did not look that

00:54:45.789 --> 00:54:48.309
great i mean they were decent the problem with

00:54:48.309 --> 00:54:50.949
the ps1 is that they're all so compressed yeah

00:54:50.949 --> 00:54:53.210
but they weren't awful i mean the characters

00:54:53.210 --> 00:54:55.550
were okay their mouths moved like they were decent

00:54:55.550 --> 00:54:59.050
um yeah i don't know i had stuff upscaled and

00:54:59.050 --> 00:55:00.889
i didn't think it looked that great oh yeah okay

00:55:01.739 --> 00:55:05.940
Again, that was probably designed for a CRT TV.

00:55:06.260 --> 00:55:09.300
Yeah, and dude, there is no video on the PS1

00:55:09.300 --> 00:55:11.239
that's going to look good, period. They were

00:55:11.239 --> 00:55:13.539
just so compressed. But I mean, the animation,

00:55:13.699 --> 00:55:15.219
I feel like the animation and everything was

00:55:15.219 --> 00:55:18.219
fine. Speaking of though, so let's jump over

00:55:18.219 --> 00:55:21.920
to graphics. I actually liked the in -game cutscenes.

00:55:22.840 --> 00:55:24.539
We've been talking about graphics, haven't we?

00:55:24.780 --> 00:55:28.239
No, I thought that was all gameplay. I actually

00:55:28.239 --> 00:55:30.900
liked... the in -game cutscenes, they actually

00:55:30.900 --> 00:55:32.800
transitioned straight into the gameplay pretty

00:55:32.800 --> 00:55:36.239
well. There was a couple of them that ended and

00:55:36.239 --> 00:55:39.219
they were right where the cutscene ended, which

00:55:39.219 --> 00:55:43.659
for the time was a pretty big deal. So I thought

00:55:43.659 --> 00:55:45.519
they did pretty good with that. Yeah, I mean,

00:55:45.519 --> 00:55:48.840
the graphics in the game, they're decent. I mean,

00:55:48.840 --> 00:55:50.460
they're PS1 graphics. They didn't age incredibly

00:55:50.460 --> 00:55:54.280
well, but the dinosaurs look pretty cool. I think

00:55:54.280 --> 00:55:55.420
they look pretty great. Dinosaurs look good,

00:55:55.519 --> 00:55:57.760
yeah. Yeah, the characters. The character model's

00:55:57.760 --> 00:56:00.320
a little... little polygon -y but they're a little

00:56:00.320 --> 00:56:03.820
stiff but they're they're not bad um hands hands

00:56:03.820 --> 00:56:07.199
are yeah hands were tough on the ps1 and they're

00:56:07.199 --> 00:56:11.840
interesting it's like old ai yeah it's uh just

00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:15.119
a block with some lines yeah oh the worst is

00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:20.820
final fantasy 7 but yeah but like the the environments

00:56:20.820 --> 00:56:22.440
were pretty sweet like you said they cut the

00:56:22.440 --> 00:56:24.460
loading screens with the doors and everything

00:56:24.460 --> 00:56:27.230
that was all really cool But, yeah, I thought,

00:56:27.250 --> 00:56:29.269
like, the machine, the final machine that you

00:56:29.269 --> 00:56:31.429
start and everything, that was, like, the room

00:56:31.429 --> 00:56:34.190
was just really cool and everything. So I thought

00:56:34.190 --> 00:56:35.769
the graphics were fine. I think they look pretty

00:56:35.769 --> 00:56:40.289
good for a PS1 game. Yeah, not bad. Not a bad

00:56:40.289 --> 00:56:43.690
-looking game in any means. It's actually, like,

00:56:44.190 --> 00:56:46.630
a lot of the problems with these games is they

00:56:46.630 --> 00:56:48.630
get very drab colors, but I thought the colors

00:56:48.630 --> 00:56:51.010
were pretty decent in this game and everything,

00:56:51.090 --> 00:56:54.130
too. Yeah, everything changed nicely, you know?

00:56:54.170 --> 00:56:57.050
Yeah, yeah. And then when you went to a new room,

00:56:57.090 --> 00:56:59.210
you knew what was going on. Yeah. And then with

00:56:59.210 --> 00:57:00.969
Regina, with her red hair, it actually helped

00:57:00.969 --> 00:57:02.570
a lot because she stuck out from a lot of stuff.

00:57:03.150 --> 00:57:05.150
I'm sure that was intentional. Probably. Yeah.

00:57:05.190 --> 00:57:07.530
Yeah. But I mean, it worked. It worked pretty

00:57:07.530 --> 00:57:10.949
well. For sure. And then we can go over. Let's

00:57:10.949 --> 00:57:14.289
see. What about the sound? The soundtrack was

00:57:14.289 --> 00:57:16.809
it's OK. It's more of like a it's definitely

00:57:16.809 --> 00:57:18.650
more of like a background soundtrack, like an

00:57:18.650 --> 00:57:21.590
ambient noise one. To me, it sounded like it

00:57:21.590 --> 00:57:23.780
had a lot like synths. Like, a lot of jarring

00:57:23.780 --> 00:57:25.739
notes and stuff. It gave me, like, old, like,

00:57:25.739 --> 00:57:29.280
80s, like, B -movie vibe kind of stuff, you know?

00:57:29.599 --> 00:57:34.380
Yeah, yeah. Like, John Carpenter. But, I mean,

00:57:34.380 --> 00:57:36.599
it fit the game pretty well, you know? I didn't

00:57:36.599 --> 00:57:38.260
really notice too much music while playing the

00:57:38.260 --> 00:57:40.280
game. Yeah, it's, like I said, it's very, like,

00:57:40.340 --> 00:57:42.340
background type of music. It's much more like,

00:57:42.460 --> 00:57:45.820
I don't know what you'd call it. Like, it was

00:57:45.820 --> 00:57:49.639
more set, like, to the action of the scene than,

00:57:49.679 --> 00:57:52.159
like, actually being music, you know? like ambiance

00:57:52.159 --> 00:57:55.639
i guess yeah yeah but but i mean i did like though

00:57:55.639 --> 00:57:57.900
like when you're in the save room you can it's

00:57:57.900 --> 00:58:01.960
got that little that little track yeah yeah it's

00:58:01.960 --> 00:58:03.820
got that little like reverb noise to it yeah

00:58:03.820 --> 00:58:07.900
yeah i actually and and i actually like the voice

00:58:07.900 --> 00:58:10.039
acting in this game i was gonna say dude the

00:58:10.039 --> 00:58:12.400
vo is actually not bad in this game it's pretty

00:58:12.400 --> 00:58:15.030
i thought it was awesome yeah PS1 had some bad

00:58:15.030 --> 00:58:17.670
voice acting. Oh, dude, I know. But I thought

00:58:17.670 --> 00:58:19.510
it was pretty good. Like, just the first Resident

00:58:19.510 --> 00:58:22.949
Evil has some freaking crazy voice acting. Yeah.

00:58:24.409 --> 00:58:27.269
But I actually like Regina, too, because... Oh,

00:58:27.329 --> 00:58:30.070
my bad. I actually like Regina because I think

00:58:30.070 --> 00:58:32.489
she's pretty funny. Yeah, like, yeah, some of

00:58:32.489 --> 00:58:34.690
the humor was pretty good. Like, the writing...

00:58:34.690 --> 00:58:36.429
Like I said, dude, the writing in this game is

00:58:36.429 --> 00:58:39.849
actually good. Yeah. Like, I think this game...

00:58:40.139 --> 00:58:41.820
Like if it didn't work out as a game, they could

00:58:41.820 --> 00:58:43.179
have turned this into a movie and it would have

00:58:43.179 --> 00:58:45.920
been like a pretty decent movie. True. Yeah.

00:58:46.559 --> 00:58:48.639
Yeah. I was impressed with the VO for this actually.

00:58:49.079 --> 00:58:51.519
Like some of it was a little stiff for sure.

00:58:51.559 --> 00:58:54.860
Like it's not perfect, but. Yeah. There was like

00:58:54.860 --> 00:58:58.039
one really odd interaction that I was like, what

00:58:58.039 --> 00:59:00.659
the hell was that all about? Which one was that?

00:59:00.699 --> 00:59:03.699
Do you remember? You run into Gail when you're

00:59:03.699 --> 00:59:06.760
looking for Dr. Kirk. Yeah. And you're in that

00:59:06.760 --> 00:59:10.019
one room and he just. you haven't seen him in

00:59:10.019 --> 00:59:12.980
like, you know, a long time. And he's like, I

00:59:12.980 --> 00:59:14.539
got to get out of here or something. I don't

00:59:14.539 --> 00:59:16.320
know. It was something weird. Oh yeah. When he's,

00:59:16.320 --> 00:59:17.860
he's just like, well, he's not in this room and

00:59:17.860 --> 00:59:20.400
then just like runs out. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That

00:59:20.400 --> 00:59:23.579
was like, I haven't seen you forever. And then

00:59:23.579 --> 00:59:26.159
he just, he just runs away. It's like, he doesn't

00:59:26.159 --> 00:59:29.360
want to be around you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So,

00:59:29.500 --> 00:59:33.340
which I guess there is some secret thing going

00:59:33.340 --> 00:59:35.639
on. I actually haven't got that ending yet. Oh

00:59:35.639 --> 00:59:37.960
yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There's like a secret. There's

00:59:37.960 --> 00:59:41.300
like a, a real reason why you're there. Alternative

00:59:41.300 --> 00:59:42.980
reason, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but you don't know.

00:59:43.199 --> 00:59:46.079
Yep. But yeah, that wasn't on interaction. I'm

00:59:46.079 --> 00:59:51.559
like, what was that all about? Yeah. I thought

00:59:51.559 --> 00:59:53.599
Regina was funny. Like that beginning where you

00:59:53.599 --> 00:59:56.139
see that dude like torn apart. She's like, that's

00:59:56.139 --> 01:00:02.119
gross. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like I said, it was

01:00:02.119 --> 01:00:04.480
all pretty good. And then the dinosaur sounds

01:00:04.480 --> 01:00:06.179
were pretty good too. The T -Rex sounded pretty

01:00:06.179 --> 01:00:07.869
sweet. Oh, that was something else we didn't

01:00:07.869 --> 01:00:11.369
mention either. Um, there were like, I don't

01:00:11.369 --> 01:00:12.530
know what you call them. They're not really quick

01:00:12.530 --> 01:00:15.070
time events, but there were times when like the

01:00:15.070 --> 01:00:17.449
dinosaurs would like grab you and you had to

01:00:17.449 --> 01:00:19.409
literally mash all of the buttons on the controller

01:00:19.409 --> 01:00:23.230
to like escape. Yeah. Which is weird. Yeah. Like

01:00:23.230 --> 01:00:26.190
all of the buttons. Really? Okay. Like you literally

01:00:26.190 --> 01:00:29.480
just mash your controller. I didn't know that

01:00:29.480 --> 01:00:31.159
because I was trying to mash, like, one button

01:00:31.159 --> 01:00:33.320
in the beginning and I kept getting hurt. I'm

01:00:33.320 --> 01:00:35.440
like, what the hell? I know. But I guess it says

01:00:35.440 --> 01:00:37.099
it in the manual. That's what Jacob said. It

01:00:37.099 --> 01:00:40.480
does, yeah. Yeah, I never read it. But it's just

01:00:40.480 --> 01:00:43.159
such a weird thing, I don't know. And then, oh,

01:00:43.199 --> 01:00:44.400
that was another thing, too, is that there was

01:00:44.400 --> 01:00:46.179
no subtitles in this game. That was kind of annoying.

01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:48.500
Oh, really? I didn't even notice that. Yeah,

01:00:48.519 --> 01:00:51.099
there's no subtitles for the game. Which, I mean,

01:00:51.119 --> 01:00:52.780
you know, for an older game like that, it's not

01:00:52.780 --> 01:00:55.320
a big deal. But the other thing, too, is, like...

01:00:55.760 --> 01:00:58.059
You can see there was a lot of Jurassic Park

01:00:58.059 --> 01:01:02.000
influence there. You're stuck in an island with

01:01:02.000 --> 01:01:05.360
a bunch of dinosaurs. They indirectly mention

01:01:05.360 --> 01:01:07.940
it in the game, don't they? I'm pretty sure Rick

01:01:07.940 --> 01:01:15.900
says it's just like that one movie. He also mentions

01:01:15.900 --> 01:01:19.940
Barney, too. Barney? The dinosaur? The purple

01:01:19.940 --> 01:01:24.880
dinosaur? Yeah. I must have missed that. That's

01:01:24.880 --> 01:01:27.889
funny. Okay, let's jump over to the achievements.

01:01:28.570 --> 01:01:33.030
Dino Crisis has 65 achievements worth 565 points.

01:01:34.110 --> 01:01:36.210
What did you guys think of these achievements?

01:01:36.969 --> 01:01:42.110
At first glance, they look overwhelming, but

01:01:42.110 --> 01:01:45.650
they're actually not that bad. Yeah, I can agree

01:01:45.650 --> 01:01:47.989
with that. I think it's a decent set. It's just

01:01:47.989 --> 01:01:50.210
beating a game multiple times is always kind

01:01:50.210 --> 01:01:52.690
of a pain, but at least this one, you're actually

01:01:52.690 --> 01:01:55.710
getting different endings every time. Yeah, I

01:01:55.710 --> 01:01:58.570
agree. Beating a game multiple times is a pain

01:01:58.570 --> 01:02:01.909
in the ass. Also, like you said too, this game's

01:02:01.909 --> 01:02:03.329
pretty short. You can get through it in a couple

01:02:03.329 --> 01:02:06.789
hours. And there is some replay, like you said,

01:02:06.809 --> 01:02:08.730
with the different endings and stuff. Yeah, different

01:02:08.730 --> 01:02:11.550
paths and stuff. When you first look at these,

01:02:11.650 --> 01:02:14.269
because some of the achievements look like they're

01:02:14.269 --> 01:02:17.690
very specific, but they're actually really not

01:02:17.690 --> 01:02:20.570
that bad. I wish the description didn't have

01:02:20.570 --> 01:02:22.150
that infinite grenade thing. They should have

01:02:22.150 --> 01:02:25.289
just said that in the... Yeah. comments or something

01:02:25.289 --> 01:02:26.670
and just took that out of there that's so because

01:02:26.670 --> 01:02:30.550
that is yeah very it does add to the description

01:02:30.550 --> 01:02:33.989
yeah it's it's too much but what do you mean

01:02:33.989 --> 01:02:37.989
what is that i actually didn't look into it you

01:02:37.989 --> 01:02:40.269
can unlock a uh there's like it's not like a

01:02:40.269 --> 01:02:42.550
cheat but when you beat the game three or four

01:02:42.550 --> 01:02:45.030
times you get infinite grenades for the grenade

01:02:45.030 --> 01:02:48.760
launcher Oh, okay. So you can just run through

01:02:48.760 --> 01:02:50.139
the game, but they don't want you to be able

01:02:50.139 --> 01:02:51.500
to do that for the achievements, which makes

01:02:51.500 --> 01:02:53.400
sense. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I don't know.

01:02:53.440 --> 01:02:57.039
Is there something? Because it says glitch. Maybe

01:02:57.039 --> 01:02:59.780
you can get it then, like, before. Maybe there's

01:02:59.780 --> 01:03:01.519
a way to glitch it, too. I don't know. I don't

01:03:01.519 --> 01:03:04.760
care. No, it just says it's a legitimate way

01:03:04.760 --> 01:03:07.619
to unlock it. Yeah. I don't know why they put

01:03:07.619 --> 01:03:11.420
glitch. I'm not sure. But they shouldn't have

01:03:11.420 --> 01:03:12.599
put it in the description. Like I said, they

01:03:12.599 --> 01:03:14.260
should have put it in the comments or something

01:03:14.260 --> 01:03:18.480
somewhere else. or maybe like put it on the first

01:03:18.480 --> 01:03:20.500
one and said it was for all of them, you know?

01:03:21.380 --> 01:03:25.500
Yeah. Whatever. Anyway. I agree. Yeah. Some of

01:03:25.500 --> 01:03:27.460
them look kind of tough. I don't know. It's like

01:03:27.460 --> 01:03:29.300
not getting hit by the T -Rex ones. Are those

01:03:29.300 --> 01:03:32.539
tough? Some of them are. Yeah. I mean, they take,

01:03:32.579 --> 01:03:36.179
I mean, they take a couple of tries, but yeah,

01:03:36.260 --> 01:03:40.760
they do get a little infuriating, but then nowhere

01:03:40.760 --> 01:03:43.099
close to some of the achievements that I put

01:03:43.099 --> 01:03:46.199
time into. Okay. So I don't think nobody's mastered

01:03:46.199 --> 01:03:47.900
it yet. I think, Eric, you're the closest. Are

01:03:47.900 --> 01:03:50.079
you going to master this game? Yeah, I only have

01:03:50.079 --> 01:03:53.579
four more left. Okay. And I think I can get three

01:03:53.579 --> 01:03:57.280
of them and one more playthrough. Yeah. That

01:03:57.280 --> 01:03:58.739
last one's probably the toughest one, right?

01:03:58.820 --> 01:04:00.760
You have to beat the game with no continues and

01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:03.559
no other weapons. Can't pick up any weapons.

01:04:03.659 --> 01:04:06.300
You can't shoot. Yeah, you can't use continues.

01:04:06.820 --> 01:04:10.940
No additional weapons. And yeah, that's it. Yeah,

01:04:11.019 --> 01:04:14.800
that sounds like a challenge for sure. Not at

01:04:14.800 --> 01:04:16.980
this point. I just run through the game pretty

01:04:16.980 --> 01:04:21.500
quick. You have to beat the Operation Wipeout

01:04:21.500 --> 01:04:24.840
in under 8 minutes and 30 seconds. Again, not

01:04:24.840 --> 01:04:26.860
the hardest achievement I've ever done, but it

01:04:26.860 --> 01:04:32.679
took me quite a bit of tries. But again, I thought

01:04:32.679 --> 01:04:34.840
it was kind of fun. It challenged me a little

01:04:34.840 --> 01:04:39.460
bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like achievements that

01:04:39.460 --> 01:04:42.619
push you a little bit. yeah yeah you know to

01:04:42.619 --> 01:04:45.460
try to learn the game mechanisms and stuff like

01:04:45.460 --> 01:04:47.920
that yeah like like you said i think this is

01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:50.059
a decent set i think it does make you kind of

01:04:50.059 --> 01:04:52.579
um you know see most of the game and it kind

01:04:52.579 --> 01:04:55.360
of makes you do it a little bit differently than

01:04:55.360 --> 01:04:57.260
you normally would which is what i like when

01:04:57.260 --> 01:05:00.679
the the achievements do so yeah yeah i like these

01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:02.460
achievements where they make me see everything

01:05:02.460 --> 01:05:05.320
in the game right yep yep i hate the achievements

01:05:05.320 --> 01:05:09.440
that add no nothing they just beat the boss without

01:05:09.440 --> 01:05:11.320
getting hit for no reason you know what i mean

01:05:11.320 --> 01:05:14.860
like yeah yeah that that adds nothing to the

01:05:14.860 --> 01:05:18.360
game right well i don't i don't hate those ones

01:05:18.360 --> 01:05:20.599
i just hate them on certain whatever we've talked

01:05:20.599 --> 01:05:22.500
about this well whatever it is it's like do a

01:05:22.500 --> 01:05:25.039
backflip four times yeah sure the boss three

01:05:25.039 --> 01:05:27.139
times stick your thumb in your ass yeah yeah

01:05:27.139 --> 01:05:30.360
that's usually how i play but well yeah yeah

01:05:30.360 --> 01:05:32.760
well how else would you keep it greased yeah

01:05:32.760 --> 01:05:35.800
exactly anyway you don't have to put that like

01:05:35.800 --> 01:05:38.610
the infinite grenade glitch i'm just Assume that's

01:05:38.610 --> 01:05:42.949
what you have to do. Right, yeah, yeah. But yeah.

01:05:43.510 --> 01:05:46.789
No, I do plan on mastering it. Yeah, I'm 50 -50.

01:05:46.929 --> 01:05:50.289
We'll see. It depends how motivated I want to

01:05:50.289 --> 01:05:53.889
be. I don't think it's that difficult. It's not

01:05:53.889 --> 01:05:55.409
about difficulty, bro. It's just about wanting

01:05:55.409 --> 01:05:58.449
to play this game anymore. I can't. Well, I guess

01:05:58.449 --> 01:06:01.550
we'll save that for the verdict. I was thinking

01:06:01.550 --> 01:06:03.210
about Baroque, but then they added a bunch of

01:06:03.210 --> 01:06:06.090
shit, so that's not happening. Dude, I am so

01:06:06.090 --> 01:06:09.710
pissed about that. I mastered that game, and

01:06:09.710 --> 01:06:13.789
they fucking added so much shit. I am so pissed.

01:06:16.469 --> 01:06:18.269
There's so much dumb shit, too. There's not even

01:06:18.269 --> 01:06:21.210
good ones. This is like a fucking niche game

01:06:21.210 --> 01:06:24.409
that nobody needed more shit for. Of course,

01:06:24.429 --> 01:06:28.989
it's one of the one games that I mastered. Come

01:06:28.989 --> 01:06:32.250
on, man. They added like 15 achievements. All

01:06:32.250 --> 01:06:35.690
right. Anyway. I spent so much time on that game.

01:06:35.949 --> 01:06:38.130
Let's before Eric blows his top, let's go and

01:06:38.130 --> 01:07:38.039
jump over to the final verdict. Okay, as always,

01:07:38.139 --> 01:07:39.760
we don't do any kind of scoring or anything here.

01:07:39.840 --> 01:07:41.679
We just do a quick, did you enjoy it and would

01:07:41.679 --> 01:07:44.460
you recommend it? And since this was Eric's game,

01:07:44.519 --> 01:07:45.679
he's the one who picked this one. We're going

01:07:45.679 --> 01:07:48.139
to make him go last today. So who wants to go

01:07:48.139 --> 01:07:51.639
first? Let Jacob go first. All right, Jacob,

01:07:51.699 --> 01:07:53.260
go ahead. See what he's got to say. I'm always

01:07:53.260 --> 01:07:56.420
interested, Jacob, so to speak. Yeah, I enjoyed

01:07:56.420 --> 01:08:00.099
this game. It wasn't too hard. And I think the

01:08:00.099 --> 01:08:03.500
number one thing I liked about it was I could

01:08:03.500 --> 01:08:05.599
do every single puzzle without having to look

01:08:05.599 --> 01:08:08.510
up a guy. I don't know why I do not like using

01:08:08.510 --> 01:08:10.230
a guide. I like figuring out stuff for myself.

01:08:10.889 --> 01:08:15.309
So, and this is also like a survival horror game

01:08:15.309 --> 01:08:19.050
from the late nineties. Usually I had to use

01:08:19.050 --> 01:08:22.270
a guide for these kinds of games because they

01:08:22.270 --> 01:08:25.189
only give you so many clues sometimes, but I

01:08:25.189 --> 01:08:26.770
feel like the puzzles in this game were pretty

01:08:26.770 --> 01:08:29.670
straightforward. And it's like, you know, one

01:08:29.670 --> 01:08:31.409
of the major aspects of this game that you're

01:08:31.409 --> 01:08:36.229
going to have to deal with. So yeah, I. I definitely

01:08:36.229 --> 01:08:40.189
enjoyed it. The survival part, or you know, surviving

01:08:40.189 --> 01:08:44.210
from the, not dying from dinosaurs, it was alright.

01:08:44.409 --> 01:08:47.369
You know, the guns aren't that powerful, at least

01:08:47.369 --> 01:08:50.550
the pistol isn't. But you can also just run past

01:08:50.550 --> 01:08:54.189
most of the dinosaurs anyway. Would you recommend

01:08:54.189 --> 01:08:58.930
it? Yeah, I would. I haven't played any of the

01:08:58.930 --> 01:09:03.170
PS1 Resident Evils. The closest thing I can compare

01:09:03.170 --> 01:09:07.609
this to is Silent Hill for the PS1. But in any

01:09:07.609 --> 01:09:10.029
case, I feel like it's still pretty unique enough

01:09:10.029 --> 01:09:13.069
from the Resident Evil games, the early Resident

01:09:13.069 --> 01:09:14.989
Evil games and Silent Hill. It still has its

01:09:14.989 --> 01:09:18.430
own feel. Its story is, you know, pretty unique.

01:09:19.590 --> 01:09:24.289
So I recommend it. All right, cool. All right,

01:09:24.310 --> 01:09:26.770
I guess I'll go next. Yeah, I enjoyed this game.

01:09:26.970 --> 01:09:31.729
I feel like the gameplay is pretty good. honestly

01:09:31.729 --> 01:09:33.909
combat's kind of useless but the rest of the

01:09:33.909 --> 01:09:35.850
game is pretty good enough to keep you entertained

01:09:35.850 --> 01:09:38.850
like like we said the puzzles are challenging

01:09:38.850 --> 01:09:40.390
but they're not difficult and they're actually

01:09:40.390 --> 01:09:42.369
pretty fun i actually enjoyed trying to figure

01:09:42.369 --> 01:09:45.210
them out and everything so and i felt like the

01:09:45.210 --> 01:09:48.050
story was enough interesting enough to you know

01:09:48.050 --> 01:09:49.609
make you want to push forward and figure out

01:09:49.609 --> 01:09:52.390
what the hell is going on and the characters

01:09:52.390 --> 01:09:54.229
were good like i just liked everything about

01:09:54.229 --> 01:09:56.300
the game i thought it was pretty good And then,

01:09:56.340 --> 01:09:57.779
you know, the dinosaurs were cool. I wish there'd

01:09:57.779 --> 01:10:00.460
been more of them. I felt like that was, honestly,

01:10:00.560 --> 01:10:02.520
for a game called Dino Crisis, I feel like the

01:10:02.520 --> 01:10:04.260
dinos were the most underutilized thing in the

01:10:04.260 --> 01:10:07.300
game. It was kind of crazy. Yeah, otherwise,

01:10:07.420 --> 01:10:10.699
it was a fun game. I enjoyed it. And I would

01:10:10.699 --> 01:10:14.819
recommend it. I think this game is, like Jacob

01:10:14.819 --> 01:10:16.859
said, it sets out enough from the other survival

01:10:16.859 --> 01:10:19.920
horror games that it's worth checking out. And

01:10:19.920 --> 01:10:22.359
like we said, this one actually has some of the

01:10:22.359 --> 01:10:24.659
better controls for the time. So I don't feel

01:10:24.659 --> 01:10:26.560
like you would be really frustrated trying to

01:10:26.560 --> 01:10:29.199
figure that stuff out and everything. So, yeah,

01:10:29.220 --> 01:10:31.920
I think it's a pretty good, fun game, and I think

01:10:31.920 --> 01:10:34.640
most people would enjoy it. All right, Ryan,

01:10:34.779 --> 01:10:40.399
what do you got? Not much. I would take my review

01:10:40.399 --> 01:10:44.020
with a grain of salt. But I just couldn't get

01:10:44.020 --> 01:10:46.859
into this game, dude. I don't know. Yeah, I mean,

01:10:46.880 --> 01:10:49.399
I'll say that, Ryan, it definitely took me a

01:10:49.399 --> 01:10:51.600
few hours before I was like, oh, okay, all right.

01:10:52.660 --> 01:10:56.439
Yeah, I mean, I probably gave up on it too soon.

01:10:56.479 --> 01:10:59.079
I might go back and play it and give it another

01:10:59.079 --> 01:11:03.319
chance, but it just seemed too Resident Evil

01:11:03.319 --> 01:11:07.460
for me. And it just, in my opinion, it wasn't

01:11:07.460 --> 01:11:09.420
much different. So I was like, if I want to play

01:11:09.420 --> 01:11:11.340
this kind of game, I'll just go play Resident

01:11:11.340 --> 01:11:15.859
Evil. I don't know. And even then, I just hate

01:11:15.859 --> 01:11:18.859
having guns and they're just fucking useless.

01:11:19.140 --> 01:11:23.909
I hate that. I always have. That's why I don't

01:11:23.909 --> 01:11:25.729
really like the older Resident Evils that much.

01:11:26.090 --> 01:11:30.529
So, I mean, it's a cool concept and everything.

01:11:31.930 --> 01:11:36.710
I don't know. Maybe I'll change my mind. I'll

01:11:36.710 --> 01:11:39.529
play it again. I'll give it another chance. Too

01:11:39.529 --> 01:11:43.369
late. I don't know. No, maybe. It might happen.

01:11:43.569 --> 01:11:46.050
But just, I don't know. Nothing in this game

01:11:46.050 --> 01:11:49.890
just sticked out to me. I don't know. Stuck out

01:11:49.890 --> 01:11:54.149
to me. I would only recommend it if you like

01:11:54.149 --> 01:11:58.890
Resident Evil games or I guess the Resident Evil

01:11:58.890 --> 01:12:03.729
games yeah but that's I don't know I don't think

01:12:03.729 --> 01:12:07.930
I would but I'm going to be the only one so that's

01:12:07.930 --> 01:12:11.850
fine bro sometimes that's how it goes yeah alright

01:12:11.850 --> 01:12:15.409
okay let's see what the person who picked this

01:12:15.409 --> 01:12:18.090
game thinks what does he think I think a lot

01:12:18.670 --> 01:12:26.390
Really? You sure about that? No. That's still

01:12:26.390 --> 01:12:31.229
thinking, isn't it? No, dude. I love this game.

01:12:31.310 --> 01:12:34.930
I enjoyed every bit of it. This game's been on

01:12:34.930 --> 01:12:38.369
my radar to play for a very long time. So I'm

01:12:38.369 --> 01:12:42.670
glad I got to get to it. Like you guys said,

01:12:42.850 --> 01:12:46.750
I think it's different enough. It's its own game.

01:12:46.810 --> 01:12:49.430
It's its own entity. I think it's worth playing.

01:12:50.470 --> 01:12:53.909
But like you said, it's definitely more, you

01:12:53.909 --> 01:12:58.210
know, not really a survival horror somewhat.

01:12:58.390 --> 01:13:00.130
Some of the elements are there, but I don't think

01:13:00.130 --> 01:13:02.350
that's its main focus. And I think that selling

01:13:02.350 --> 01:13:05.729
point is not what it's supposed to be for this

01:13:05.729 --> 01:13:10.670
game. But the puzzles are fun. The gameplay is

01:13:10.670 --> 01:13:14.569
fun. Like you said, the controls are good enough

01:13:14.569 --> 01:13:16.710
to where you're not going to get annoyed with

01:13:16.710 --> 01:13:21.390
them and give up. for a PS1 game. I don't know.

01:13:21.430 --> 01:13:24.210
I loved it. The dinosaurs are awesome. I thought

01:13:24.210 --> 01:13:27.909
it was cool. But yeah, I agree. They're definitely

01:13:27.909 --> 01:13:31.789
not relevant enough. I don't know. I enjoyed

01:13:31.789 --> 01:13:34.510
it. I liked all the little details in the game.

01:13:35.430 --> 01:13:41.390
So I had fun. Would you recommend it? Yeah, I

01:13:41.390 --> 01:13:44.989
would. Just in general, even if you don't like

01:13:44.989 --> 01:13:46.789
Resident Evil, I think it's different enough.

01:13:48.250 --> 01:13:52.130
that you can play it on its own. Yeah, I agree.

01:13:53.989 --> 01:13:55.930
Alright, does this change anybody's least or

01:13:55.930 --> 01:13:59.470
most favorites? I don't know if it's my most

01:13:59.470 --> 01:14:01.149
favorite, but it's definitely at the top now.

01:14:01.289 --> 01:14:04.609
I really did like this game. Yeah, I liked it

01:14:04.609 --> 01:14:05.949
more than I thought I was going to, for sure.

01:14:06.550 --> 01:14:08.090
Like I said, when I first started, I kind of

01:14:08.090 --> 01:14:10.470
was like, son of a bitch, but I eventually figured

01:14:10.470 --> 01:14:12.829
out that you can just kind of how to play the

01:14:12.829 --> 01:14:16.319
game, and I enjoyed it much more. Yeah, I agree.

01:14:16.439 --> 01:14:19.659
It does take a minute to get into, but what you

01:14:19.659 --> 01:14:24.399
do, I think it has its own charm. Yeah, true.

01:14:24.800 --> 01:14:27.300
I mean, they did make two other games. Yeah,

01:14:27.319 --> 01:14:29.380
well, apparently the second one's even more action

01:14:29.380 --> 01:14:32.039
-oriented, and the third one, the third one's

01:14:32.039 --> 01:14:33.680
like a light gun game or something, or I can't

01:14:33.680 --> 01:14:35.859
remember. I don't know anything about the third

01:14:35.859 --> 01:14:38.819
one. Yeah, it gets crazy. But that's only on

01:14:38.819 --> 01:14:40.840
Xbox, isn't it? Yeah, it's an Xbox exclusive.

01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:47.170
That sucks. All right, that's it for Dawn of

01:14:47.170 --> 01:14:48.890
Crisis. What did you guys think? Let us know.

01:14:48.930 --> 01:14:51.489
Did you enjoy it? Would you recommend it? And

01:14:51.489 --> 01:14:56.470
let's hear from you guys. So now let's jump over

01:14:56.470 --> 01:14:58.449
to our next game, which I don't know if any of

01:14:58.449 --> 01:15:02.369
us is going to like. I'm sure one of us will.

01:15:02.729 --> 01:15:05.909
Yeah. We are playing Germs for the PlayStation.

01:15:06.170 --> 01:15:08.569
So we're staying on the PlayStation and we're

01:15:08.569 --> 01:15:11.729
going to play a Japanese only game called Germs.

01:15:12.369 --> 01:15:13.909
So let's go ahead and take a look at the front

01:15:13.909 --> 01:15:17.149
of the box art. I mean, do we have to look at

01:15:17.149 --> 01:15:22.189
this? This is crazy. I'm not sure what the point

01:15:22.189 --> 01:15:24.210
of this is. What I think we're looking at is

01:15:24.210 --> 01:15:26.369
a bunch of naked bodies being merged together.

01:15:28.010 --> 01:15:30.310
There's a lot of pubis mondus going on here.

01:15:33.270 --> 01:15:37.590
Maybe it's a reference to germ cells. Maybe.

01:15:38.289 --> 01:15:41.189
If you read the back of the thing, you'll figure

01:15:41.189 --> 01:15:46.090
it out. Makes more sense? Okay. Yeah. A game

01:15:46.090 --> 01:15:51.170
like this has never been seen before. I'm sure

01:15:51.170 --> 01:15:54.189
that's not wrong. I'm still trying to figure

01:15:54.189 --> 01:15:57.149
this front out here, bro. This is wild. What

01:15:57.149 --> 01:16:00.869
does it say on the front? Earth Invasion Psychological

01:16:00.869 --> 01:16:06.090
Adventure. That's what the front says? That's

01:16:06.090 --> 01:16:07.510
what it says. A game like this has never been

01:16:07.510 --> 01:16:11.390
seen before. It says Earth Invasion Psychological

01:16:11.390 --> 01:16:15.729
Adventure. Earth invasion, okay. So, aliens?

01:16:16.949 --> 01:16:19.289
Maybe this is like, what's that movie called?

01:16:19.369 --> 01:16:23.729
Human Centipede? Oh, God. They've done it before.

01:16:24.109 --> 01:16:26.949
They've done it before. There'd be like four

01:16:26.949 --> 01:16:31.470
of those. Don't keep up with that. Okay, let's

01:16:31.470 --> 01:16:34.010
jump to the back of this thing here. I sent you

01:16:34.010 --> 01:16:36.789
the picture. Yeah, I got it. So, this is Google

01:16:36.789 --> 01:16:40.229
translated, so it may not be 100%, but we got...

01:16:40.430 --> 01:16:43.590
experience a new 3d gaming space with fully real

01:16:43.590 --> 01:16:47.449
-time rendering the setting is a provincial city

01:16:47.449 --> 01:16:50.270
about 2 .5 kilometers square surrounded by mountains

01:16:50.270 --> 01:16:53.470
on three sides east west north and south that's

01:16:53.470 --> 01:16:56.789
four sides and the seas on the south this is

01:16:56.789 --> 01:16:59.310
the town that serves as the setting the town

01:16:59.310 --> 01:17:01.949
once thrived on coal mining over time the mines

01:17:01.949 --> 01:17:04.029
were closed and the town fell into disrepair

01:17:04.029 --> 01:17:06.630
the player takes on the role of a newspaper reporter

01:17:06.630 --> 01:17:09.649
he lived in the city until high school After

01:17:09.649 --> 01:17:12.670
20 years, he is transferred to a small branch

01:17:12.670 --> 01:17:15.010
office in his hometown. Through a computer in

01:17:15.010 --> 01:17:16.729
the newspaper office, he notices something strange

01:17:16.729 --> 01:17:19.289
happening in the city. A mysterious enemy has

01:17:19.289 --> 01:17:21.750
begun to invade the city. They fuse with people

01:17:21.750 --> 01:17:23.930
and multiply by utilizing the intelligence and

01:17:23.930 --> 01:17:26.289
abilities of their hosts. The townspeople gradually

01:17:26.289 --> 01:17:30.890
begin to transform into strange figures. Okay,

01:17:31.010 --> 01:17:33.630
I guess that did make... The front of the game

01:17:33.630 --> 01:17:37.130
makes a little bit more sense. Why are they all

01:17:37.130 --> 01:17:40.810
naked? I still have many questions. They eat

01:17:40.810 --> 01:17:43.510
clothes. Why did they get the clothes eating

01:17:43.510 --> 01:17:47.050
aliens? Maybe they only attack you when you're

01:17:47.050 --> 01:17:49.750
naked. They feed off a cloth. Yeah, they're afraid

01:17:49.750 --> 01:17:57.850
of cotton. Cotton is their food source. Yeah,

01:17:57.890 --> 01:18:02.390
I don't know about this game, man. It looks odd.

01:18:02.390 --> 01:18:05.569
It's going to be a strange game. I'm sure once

01:18:05.569 --> 01:18:10.029
we play this game... Yeah, that's true. It fits.

01:18:10.270 --> 01:18:12.970
Fits the bill. This is Jacob's game, by the way.

01:18:12.989 --> 01:18:14.750
He decided to pick this one. Is this the same

01:18:14.750 --> 01:18:21.090
year? 99? I don't know. Same year as Dino Crisis.

01:18:21.609 --> 01:18:25.390
Who's going to be the winner of 1999? Dino Crisis.

01:18:26.750 --> 01:18:29.270
I feel like this is the type of game that deserves

01:18:29.270 --> 01:18:33.390
to be forgotten. Nah. I just have a feeling.

01:18:34.010 --> 01:18:37.310
We'll see. There's a reason why nobody played

01:18:37.310 --> 01:18:38.630
this game. We'll see. What are you thinking,

01:18:38.649 --> 01:18:41.069
Jacob? What are you thinking? 192 people did.

01:18:41.829 --> 01:18:43.869
I think I'm going to... I don't know. I think

01:18:43.869 --> 01:18:45.909
I'm going to like it. I mean, there's something

01:18:45.909 --> 01:18:48.050
about the strangeness of this game that I see

01:18:48.050 --> 01:18:51.289
in screenshots that just appeals to me. I don't

01:18:51.289 --> 01:18:53.510
know why. It kind of reminds me... The visuals

01:18:53.510 --> 01:18:58.380
kind of remind me of... LSD simulator. Yeah,

01:18:58.460 --> 01:19:00.380
this definitely looks like one of those weird

01:19:00.380 --> 01:19:03.899
Steam games. I'm fooling around a little bit.

01:19:03.939 --> 01:19:06.500
I am interested. I'm interested to see what this

01:19:06.500 --> 01:19:10.000
is. It's interesting. I'll give it that. It looks

01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:12.659
interesting. But that's just because it could

01:19:12.659 --> 01:19:15.199
be fucking anything. Yeah, I wonder what kind

01:19:15.199 --> 01:19:17.899
of game this is. Because the LSD simulator is

01:19:17.899 --> 01:19:20.939
not even really a game. Yeah. So we'll see what

01:19:20.939 --> 01:19:22.840
kind of game this is. I mean, I'm interested.

01:19:22.979 --> 01:19:24.760
I'm willing to sit down. I mean, I'll play anything,

01:19:24.859 --> 01:19:30.020
so we'll figure it out. All right. Cool. That's

01:19:30.020 --> 01:19:32.539
it for this episode. Let us know what you guys

01:19:32.539 --> 01:19:36.579
think about this game. If you really like that

01:19:36.579 --> 01:19:42.140
cover art, don't text us. Yeah. We've got nothing

01:19:42.140 --> 01:19:44.520
for you. Yeah. Otherwise, we'll see you for the

01:19:44.520 --> 01:19:47.560
next one. So, peace. I just wanted to say, man,

01:19:47.659 --> 01:19:51.760
thanks for a good year. This is our last episode

01:19:51.760 --> 01:19:54.560
of the year. You couldn't do that before I said

01:19:54.560 --> 01:19:58.819
peace? Yeah. We should redo that. You said peace

01:19:58.819 --> 01:20:01.840
really fast, bro. Go ahead and do that real quick

01:20:01.840 --> 01:20:06.439
then. I already did it. I'm not cutting any of

01:20:06.439 --> 01:20:10.539
that. I'm not cutting any of that. We'll see

01:20:10.539 --> 01:20:15.119
you all, guys. Jesus Christ. We'll see you all

01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:17.319
for the next one again. Peace.
