Episode 38: Player Profile - Olive 🫒

Shawn, Gee, Piel the Beer Guy, and Olive gather around the table at the GameVerse Pub for Episode 38, bringing back one of our favorite segments: Player Profile! 🍺🎮

In this episode, the spotlight is on Olive (@thatgamerolive) as she takes us through her gaming journey in the most fun way possible. 👀

With a series of multiple-choice questions, Olive challenges the crew to figure out the games and moments that shaped her as a gamer — while we debate, overthink, and try to read her reactions along the way 😄

Olive puts us to the test with questions like:

🎮 What game made me fall in love with gaming?
 🛋️ What’s my favourite couch co-op?
 🎮 Which Switch game had me in a choke hold?
 👥 What’s my favourite team/squad game?

From nostalgic picks to unexpected favorites, this episode is full of laughs, great guesses, and fun insights into Olive’s gaming history.

🍻 Whether you're playing along or just enjoying the chaos, this is Player Profile at its best!

Let's see if we have time. Uh so for each bonus question. Exactly. Yeah, okay. So for each question, you have uh multiple answers. I do. So for every one of them, uh we'll we'll get talking, try to figure out what might be the right answers. Um you can decide if you want to try to trick us, but you can't lie. You can omit to say something, but that can be a tell. You can play mind games, can do whatever you want, but in the end you cannot lie.

SPEAKER_06 1:50

So, like my fifth amendment.

SPEAKER_00 1:51

One must not lie. Tell lies, right? Is that the Harry Potter thing? I must not tell lies.

Yeah, go.

SPEAKER_02 10:55

You've got one shooter, you've got a 3D platformer in Spyro, you have a regular platformer with Mario, D N E S, and you have Meh Medieval, which is like a third person action game, right?

SPEAKER_03 11:12

Um I I find it's it gets close to almost um what's that uh that cartoon there that's um Oh geez, I The Nightmare Before Christmas.

SPEAKER_06 11:23

Oh, yeah, that's the same thing. I find the characters are very much alike. Medieval so the character.

Can you describe uh the Mario game that you've played? Because I know you said you played like oh that one and you pointed the NES, but there's three on NES.

SPEAKER_06 11:55

This is the first one that ever came out of the pros, yeah. Yeah, the pros, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 11:59

So um can you take us through the games and explain how those games came to be on your list?

SPEAKER_00 12:06

Let's start with Duke Nukem. Which one?

SPEAKER_06 12:08

Uh Duke Nukem, the 3D one. So the one that came out on PlayStation. Because there's one that came out before I think it was like computers. Yeah. So that one came out and it wasn't the same. So the 3D one was PlayStation one. That's like really where I started my gaming as a PlayStation. Well, Nintendo, and then PlayStation was my next step, I guess you can say.

SPEAKER_03 12:26

Was it on the demo?

SPEAKER_06 12:28

It was what on the demo?

SPEAKER_03 12:29

Uh the the Duke Nukem game.

SPEAKER_06 12:31

No, I had the game game.

SPEAKER_03 12:33

Okay, but like I you know, whenever you bought the PlayStation 1, there was a game with all sorts of demo games on it. God it was it that version? I don't remember that far. You went to a strip club and uh there was like uh pigs and PG podcasts. Oh no, it's Duke Nukem.

SPEAKER_02 12:48

Duke Nukem is like all over the place. Yeah, yeah, it's all over the place. Very graphic and yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_06 12:53

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like not meant for me to play at that age. Really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 12:58

Yeah, yeah. Okay, so ca can you please repeat the question?

SPEAKER_06 13:01

Yeah, so what game made me fall in love with gaming?

SPEAKER_00 13:05

Oh, deep.

SPEAKER_06 13:07

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 13:07

What game made you fall in love with? Okay, so that's so that means it would have been at an early age. So Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 13:13

I was uh I think my sister was seven, um, eight, nine, that's probably like eleven.

SPEAKER_00 13:19

For Duke Nukem.

SPEAKER_06 13:20

Yeah, for all the PlayStation One games for sure.

SPEAKER_00 13:22

I got my answer. Okay. Um so so for Duke, okay.

SPEAKER_06 13:26

And I got my answer.

SPEAKER_00 13:29

Wow.

SPEAKER_06 13:30

What about Wow?

SPEAKER_00 13:32

You just had to do it.

SPEAKER_06 13:33

So confident.

SPEAKER_00 13:34

You just had to do it. No, I am very confident. I have an explanation. Perfect. That's perfect. You can you can have your answer, but I have more questions.

SPEAKER_05 13:41

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 13:44

Yes, I have to talk to you. So um Spyro.

SPEAKER_06 13:47

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 13:47

Spyro. What's this about again? Is it that little like that dragon? That orange just dragon. A purple dragon that like there's no orange on him?

unknown 13:55

No.

SPEAKER_06 13:55

No.

SPEAKER_00 13:56

Is is like maybe the cover of the game? There's some more.

SPEAKER_06 13:59

Yeah, he spits fire.

SPEAKER_00 14:00

Oh, fire is orange, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 14:03

Oh my gosh, that's not.

SPEAKER_00 14:05

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 14:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 14:07

Um, and then he has like a little fairy that follows him around too.

SPEAKER_00 14:10

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 14:11

So you go like uh retrieve eggs and whatnot and battle.

SPEAKER_03 14:15

What'd you like the most about that game?

SPEAKER_00 14:18

Yeah. Oh, she's making a face. That means that's the answer, guys.

SPEAKER_06 14:24

Um being a dragon. There's like hopping around everywhere, I guess. Like, the dragon hops.

SPEAKER_00 14:29

Does he not fly?

SPEAKER_06 14:30

He jumps, he flies, he glides.

SPEAKER_00 14:32

Oh okay.

SPEAKER_06 14:33

Yeah, so it's just like you when you jump from like place to place, you like glide. And you have to learn how to glide, you have to learn how to do all sorts of stuff like throughout the game. Um just like all the missions, I guess. Okay. There's not really like one thing in particular that I love.

SPEAKER_00 14:49

Does it get redundant? Like all you do is just jump and glide?

SPEAKER_06 14:52

Or is there no no, there's like different missions you can do, like there's different portals you go through, and it's like a different world that you have to like find all the eggs and stuff.

SPEAKER_00 15:00

Okay, is it a side scroller or is it like 3D world?

SPEAKER_03 15:03

It's 3D. I find it's very similar to uh the first uh to Mario Mario 64.

SPEAKER_00 15:09

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 15:09

It's a 3D platformer.

SPEAKER_00 15:11

Oh, okay. Got it. Okay. I mean what what is media evil? Is it another zombie game?

SPEAKER_06 15:18

You're not a zombie, you're like a like a setting little skinny skeleton that you go like through. Um there are also different stages to like fight off all sorts of things. Um there's one part that you go like through a cemetery, but there's always like something you're fighting to get to the end of the game.

SPEAKER_03 15:35

Okay, have any of you ever played this game? No. I I've played Meta Evil. Um, I think it was the demo, and the demo made me want to play more of it. Um and honestly, like I I want to go for that game just because I had a lot of fun playing that game, and just you saying it brought back a lot of uh nostalgia.

SPEAKER_06 15:55

Do it.

SPEAKER_03 15:56

I I I I like it.

SPEAKER_06 15:58

So I have replayed it.

SPEAKER_03 15:59

Yeah?

SPEAKER_06 15:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 16:00

Is it as good as like does it hold up or I'm not gonna lie, it made me really dizzy.

unknown 16:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 16:07

It made me really dizzy to replay it because I think we're so used to now gaming the way we do that having a game like that, um, well, for me at least, like a different angle made me nauseous, but like it's still like you say it's nostalgic, and it's just like it brings like back the shivers and like the oh that's a big tell, but it's too obvious.

SPEAKER_00 16:29

I know, I know. Like I understand. You kind of uh skipped over Duke Nukem, but whatever. So Super Mario Bros.

SPEAKER_06 16:39

Um okay I used to play that with my brother all the time when we were little.

SPEAKER_00 16:43

Yeah, do you get along with your brother?

SPEAKER_06 16:44

I do.

SPEAKER_00 16:44

Okay, so there might be some nostalgia there.

SPEAKER_06 16:47

He was at my house yesterday. He brought the fire truck and everything.

SPEAKER_00 16:51

What do you mean the fire truck?

SPEAKER_06 16:52

He's a fireman. He brought the fire truck and a firefighter. He's sorry, he's a firefighter, so he stopped. He's a captain, so he's not allowed to drive the the truck anymore. So um, yeah, he like just knocked on my door and I looked outside and he was there with the damn truck again. That's cool.

SPEAKER_00 17:09

Yeah, so did all the kids in the neighborhood come out?

SPEAKER_06 17:11

Um the neighbors usually end up coming out because they're like, oh my god, there's something wrong, and it's so embarrassing, but yeah.

unknown 17:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 17:17

The firefighters.

SPEAKER_06 17:18

Well, that and they think something's wrong, but yeah, and I'm just like, oh my god. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 17:22

I love them, but and did you guys play Super Mario Bros. while he was there working?

SPEAKER_06 17:28

Working?

SPEAKER_00 17:29

Well, he was there with his truck, no?

SPEAKER_06 17:32

No, when we were young. You're an idiot. When we were young, we used to play. No, but yesterday. And I can even remember when he went to your place. He just came to pick something up. Oh, okay. Because he had just battled a fire. So you didn't play. We didn't play yesterday, but we played when we were young, and he would uh like do all the hard, harder parts for me. But I still remember the room we played in where we were sitting in front of the that window. I can tell you what was outside.

SPEAKER_00 17:57

Was it the living room? Nope.

SPEAKER_02 17:58

Uh no, I'm not certain about the answer.

SPEAKER_06 18:01

It was it was in my mom's room. She had a TV and we would sit aside like she had a really big bay window, like in her room. I don't know if that makes sense. Um but we would play there, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 18:12

So I don't I don't foresee a Mario game being somebody's origin story into gaming. Like, hey, Mario really put me into gaming, and like I I don't know. It's a great game. A great game, don't get me wrong. I just don't think that it's a turning point for someone to like fall in love with gaming.

SPEAKER_06 18:34

And I used to play it at the dentist actually, too. They had cool games. Um that's cool.

SPEAKER_00 18:40

I I personally disagree. I don't think Super Mario is her game, but I I I disagree because for me, if I had that same question, the Super Mario World is my game to answer for that.

SPEAKER_03 18:52

Not Mario 1.

SPEAKER_00 18:53

No, I think it's not a good idea for a lot of people. Um I don't think it is for you because when we mentioned that we wanted to do a podcast or just to to to play uh Super Mario Bros. 3 and mentioning retro games the other day, you don't feel like you click with them. You want to play more modern games. So I don't know. I I I wouldn't uh I wouldn't think you're a Mario, uh Super Mario uh. So I'm trying to trying to put myself um in my shoes?

SPEAKER_03 19:22

In your shoes in Olive's shoes uh when you were a kid. What puts you what puts you into gaming? Uh Duke Nukem, like it's a little violent and it's a little bit, but like yeah.

SPEAKER_06 19:33

But like when we were young though, I don't think we thought of it like that.

SPEAKER_03 19:36

Probably not.

SPEAKER_06 19:37

Because now that I look at it, I'd be like, no kid should be playing the game.

SPEAKER_03 19:42

But uh, I don't know, maybe your fiery attitude uh for Spiral. Like, I don't know. We'll get her mad. She'll shive us.

SPEAKER_01 19:53

I shiv.

SPEAKER_00 19:54

What do you think? You've been quiet, you're never quiet. What's going on? No, I'm not nervous. Um G nervous, yeah, I don't think so.

SPEAKER_02 20:04

Um I went the logical route, so I don't think that it's Mario because based on your age that you told us before, you were a bit too young. 50? So it depends on the vibe. It depends. It depends on when you played Mario, but then you said I remember when I was a kid, I was playing with my brother.

SPEAKER_04 20:22

Yep.

SPEAKER_02 20:22

So that means that you probably had Mario when it kind of came up. So that also means that you were way too young to understand what you were doing. You just wanted to play with your brother.

SPEAKER_06 20:33

Look at him, I think he knows how to game.

SPEAKER_02 20:35

No, no, no. No, no, I was kidding.

SPEAKER_00 20:37

I think he's onto something and it has a very logical point.

SPEAKER_06 20:40

It was pretty good.

SPEAKER_02 20:41

You have three PS1 games. Yep. So you skipped a whole generation of Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis, which means you fell out of favor with gaming in between. This guy's smart. That means that we are on the generation of PS16.

SPEAKER_06 20:57

I am a PS girl. I even have the tattoos.

SPEAKER_02 21:00

What game made her fall in love with it?

SPEAKER_06 21:02

Yep.

SPEAKER_02 21:02

Duke Nugum 3D, I don't think so that you would fall in love just because of the style of the game, unless you're a freak and I don't know. Um, two. Sean. So that leaves us. So that leaves us. I'm going for Duke Nukem. Um that leaves us Medieval, which you speak very highly of, and Spyro the Dragon. Based on your age and when the PS1 came out, I think Spiral of the Dragon is way more whimsical, way more approachable, which meant that, and also you said that you all the levels, you finished all the levels.

SPEAKER_06 21:42

I never said I finished the levels.

SPEAKER_02 21:43

You said all the levels at some point, all of the levels. Anyways, you said something along those lines. Okay. That there's a lot of levels. There is a lot of things. That made me think that you completed the game. So my my pick is Spiral of the Dragon.

SPEAKER_00 21:55

Okay. Um first of all. I'm very impressed with your uh analytical uh viewpoints on this. I bring my A game. Yeah, you did you did bring your A game. You let us speak like idiots. Fall on your face. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 22:14

Um I'm gonna leave now.

SPEAKER_00 22:15

Duke Nukem is the game. If it is Duke Nukem and you are a freak, well, I just want to say this podcast is all about diversity and inclusion. So we can have freaks. Yeah. Monsters and freaks are welcome. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 22:27

Anytime.

SPEAKER_00 22:29

Um I think I know the answer, but it's because I recall things you've said in the past.

SPEAKER_06 22:37

That's why I said you'd know the answer.

SPEAKER_00 22:38

Yeah. So uh I'll I'll just write it down, and I don't want to say it out before you say your answer, but I think I do know the answer. And but if it's not that, um like yeah, clearly I didn't know, but I I'll go with what I think.

SPEAKER_02 22:52

It's a good question because it's a great question. Sean knows a lot. It's not the first game she's played, it's the game that made her fall in love with gaming, so that's different.

SPEAKER_00 23:01

I know a lot because I interviewed her for five hours before knowing that uh she was okay to come on the first podcast, Hogwarts Legacy.

SPEAKER_04 23:08

That was so scary.

SPEAKER_00 23:09

Yeah, I don't know. I'm like, I'm not gonna have any uh any weirdo come on the pod, right? Five-hour interview was uh pretty much a step.

SPEAKER_06 23:15

But I waited till we were on the podcast. It's so weird.

SPEAKER_00 23:18

I can only have one of those. Oh, okay. So I'm the weirdo. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_06 23:23

Finally found out.

SPEAKER_00 23:25

He said his answer. What's yours?

SPEAKER_03 23:27

He didn't say his answer. Yeah, spiral. Spiral? Yeah, spiral. Um I I want to diversify and I want to make this a fun game. Um I'm gonna go with my evil.

SPEAKER_04 23:38

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 23:38

Okay, wait. I know it's spiral. Okay, but I'm going with my evil.

SPEAKER_00 23:42

That's what that's what I want to know because usually you don't go with your what I want, you go with your uh logic. And it's like he's playing that game today. Are you playing it differently? You can tie it. What are you going with?

SPEAKER_06 23:56

Are you sticking to I'm not telling you what to do with this? No, no, I just I just I have high expectations for you.

SPEAKER_03 24:03

Oh I'm I'm sorry to disappoint. No, I'm gonna go with Mudai Evil just because I had a lot of fun playing that game, and I remember being like it was a really cool game, but I do think it was Spyro because just Spyro is such a more lovable character and something that really you associate that with Olive? Excuse me.

unknown 24:24

Wow.

SPEAKER_03 24:25

You called me an idiot earlier, alright? Sorry, it's um and I find Spyro was a staple of PlayStation 1 as well. Like, so I I wouldn't go for that, but I'm going to crash bandicoot medieval. Oh my god, they both came out at like at the same time.

SPEAKER_00 24:40

So you're going medieval? Yeah, okay. You can't after that say, yeah, but honorable mention. Like, no, if you go medieval, you'll lose if it's not that honorable mention to the case. But if you get that's pretty impressive. Okay, so I'll I'll say it after. Did you write it down?

SPEAKER_03 24:56

Yeah, of course it was spiral.

SPEAKER_00 24:57

I got spiral.

SPEAKER_06 24:58

Yeah, it's because I've spoken to you about it all the time.

SPEAKER_02 24:59

Yeah, you did speak to me about it. How was my analysis? It was good. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 25:03

So Spyro, um what you guys don't know is that all the races and all the scary parts I made my sister do, which was younger than me. Oh. And then this is our me and my husband's like winter Christmas game. And I still make him do all the scary and the races too. But yeah, the scary parts? The scary parts. Like the the the boss battles kind of thing. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 25:23

They're scary for her because they're difficult.

SPEAKER_06 25:25

Yes. So I make him do it by like, yeah, that's like our Christmas game for sure.

SPEAKER_02 25:30

That's fun. Oh, that's so cool. Yeah, having a Christmas game. That's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00 25:33

I can't wait to have the uh the the uh gaming couple episode with you and your husband. That's gonna be cool to know that dynamic of what it must be like to he probably thinks I'm so annoying when I play games. Oh, yeah, yeah. But I'm sure he knows he knows that's pretty cool. All right, awesome. Thank you for your first question.

SPEAKER_06 25:50

For sure. Oh, wait, I have to find my page again. Sorry. Moving on! Next question.

SPEAKER_00 25:55

I'm gonna skip the second one because that's like uh great question.

SPEAKER_06 26:02

Thank you. Yeah, I was really nervous about my click.

SPEAKER_02 26:04

Let's hope the other three don't suck.

SPEAKER_06 26:07

Oh my god. Do we want me to leave now? No, just leave. Um, okay. Well, what's my favorite couch co-op? Ooh, that's so split fiction.

SPEAKER_02 26:18

Oh shit. I haven't played that one.

SPEAKER_06 26:20

Plant versus zombie garden warfare. Sorry, I have to wait for someone. Someone's a little slow. Garden Warfare. Yeah, yeah. Plants versus zombies. But there's more than one, so it's the garden warfare one.

SPEAKER_03 26:34

Is there more than one on your list? No. Okay. That's what I'm telling. Wait, what is the first one again?

SPEAKER_06 26:40

Uh split fiction. Oh yeah. It takes two or a way out. Okay. So split fiction, it takes two, and a way out are all created by the same people, which is uh haze light.

SPEAKER_03 26:53

Oh yeah?

SPEAKER_06 26:54

Yeah. What was the third one? Which one? Uh the third one? It takes two.

SPEAKER_00 26:57

It takes two.

SPEAKER_06 26:59

And then a way out.

SPEAKER_00 27:00

Okay. Which ones are created by the same one?

SPEAKER_06 27:02

Uh Split Fiction, It Takes Two, and A Way Out.

SPEAKER_00 27:06

Oh, okay. So you just got Planet vs. Zombies that is a different one. Yeah. Sound like those uh villagers in the Minecraft. Planet vs.

SPEAKER_02 27:16

Zombies is is on which platform?

SPEAKER_06 27:19

Uh everything's on PlayStation. I'm a PlayStation girly.

SPEAKER_02 27:22

Okay, okay. And it was uh oh yeah, wait. I played that. Yeah I played that with my brother super.

SPEAKER_06 27:28

Yeah, and these are all games where you have to play. Um I think Plant vs. Zombies you can play alone though. Uh but the three others you have to play with someone. Like it's a very co-op game.

SPEAKER_02 27:38

Who did you play it takes two with?

SPEAKER_06 27:40

Really?

SPEAKER_02 27:41

Yeah, I have to ask.

SPEAKER_06 27:42

My husband.

SPEAKER_02 27:43

Yeah, of course. Okay. That's a divorce game, right? No. Uh it takes two.

SPEAKER_06 27:47

It takes two is the divorce.

SPEAKER_02 27:50

No, it's about an actual divorce.

SPEAKER_05 27:52

Yes. It's about an actual divorce.

SPEAKER_02 27:53

I thought it caused divorce. Sorry. I know.

SPEAKER_06 27:56

It could cause divorce. It could cause divorce.

SPEAKER_02 27:58

No, it's because I thought that's because divorces. No, no, but it was super mario.

SPEAKER_06 28:05

It is a game that could cause divorce, 100%. Yes. Yes. Yeah, because it makes you You have to work to g every single game you have to work together.

SPEAKER_02 28:12

Yeah, it makes you think about your own relationship too.

SPEAKER_06 28:14

Yes. Which is with the that that book uh what uh Hakeem, the Book of Love.

SPEAKER_00 28:19

Isn't the Book of Love, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 28:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:21

I didn't play it, but I saw my my kids did play it, and but I was watching for the f the first part, and you see like it's a real it's a situation where two parents are getting uh divorced and but then they're because of the book of love or magic, they're brought into like the real world, but as two little little dolls or whatever, and they have to work together to uh I d to I don't know. I don't know the story enough, but uh I'm guessing, please don't spoil it. At the end, they get back together. That's what that that that I'm like oh well I probably know the ending. This would be stupid if they don't fucking fix their their marriage, so so uh that's fair, or they don't. Hey, maybe one day, maybe one day I'll play it.

SPEAKER_05 29:05

He hasn't played it, you haven't played it, no, so we won't tell you, you never know.

SPEAKER_00 29:09

So I'll say at the end why I don't think this is the answer.

SPEAKER_05 29:12

Okay, you'll say at the end, yeah, because I don't want to influence others.

SPEAKER_00 29:16

Oh, I already did. Okay, so I'm just gonna say it. I don't think this is the answer because on a previous episode um we didn't mention a divorce game and we had that same kind of argument, not argument, but uh oh the it takes two's a divorce game, then you're like, it's an actual divorce. You know what I just did to you? She did it to me the other day. Oh, okay. Because me too. It was to me, it was like talking about divorce games like that you don't play with your spouse because you'll want to kill them. Yeah, um, and but I thought that was a good game. Murder. I didn't I didn't see how that game Where are the tomatoes?

SPEAKER_06 29:51

I haven't played that one.

SPEAKER_00 29:52

I didn't see how it takes two would be a bad game for couples. Like it looks fun, it doesn't look like you can ruin somebody's time, can you?

SPEAKER_06 30:00

Well it depends how it depends if your other half is a player, a game, like a gamer. Playing the game and losing with some shit. I think it depends if it depends if your other half or whoever you're playing with is an actual gamer. Because you you s in like co-op games, I feel like you you still need skill to play co-op games because you have to work together. So I mean you need the patience, right?

SPEAKER_03 30:30

Okay. Okay. Um I want to hear more about plants versus zombies because I know you like plants, I know you like zombies. You probably have a garden warfare out in your backyard.

SPEAKER_06 30:40

I mean I wish so. It's like a 3D game. Um, so basically the plants are killing the zombies, the zombies are like invading everything. Um so you have to go and you can be like a sunflower, you can be like I don't know what they're called, but it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_02 30:57

Isn't it like is it is it like the team deathmatch one?

SPEAKER_06 31:01

You can do kind of like a team deathmatch one. But if you're like you can be a sunmatch, it's a 3D, right? Yeah, yeah. So I wish I had like a picture of it, but like you could be like a big sunflower. There's so many characters you can pick from.

SPEAKER_02 31:10

Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 31:11

Um and then you like go around. It's it's really cool, yeah. So you like go around and you're like, you have to kill the zombies if the zombies come after you, and it's like it's thrilling.

SPEAKER_02 31:21

But why is it a couch co-op?

SPEAKER_06 31:23

Uh, because you can play up to like four players on this game.

SPEAKER_02 31:26

Uh huh. Yeah. Split screen four players. On a couch.

SPEAKER_06 31:30

That's why they call it that. Yeah, so that one's uh yeah, it's a couch co-op for sure.

SPEAKER_00 31:36

It wasn't that wasn't that like a mobile game, Plans vs. Zombies back in the day.

SPEAKER_02 31:41

Back in the Angry Birds days, there were it is, but it's a different type of game what you're describing. I think it's like the hero that match shooter.

SPEAKER_06 31:49

It's so pretty, too. Like it's a good game to play, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 31:52

Yeah, you're the only one who would find zombie things pretty.

SPEAKER_06 31:55

No, but like, I mean, like the the cartoony-ish of it, like the art of it is very, very cool and very pretty. Yeah, the zombies are like super cute. Look well, cute. They're cute. They're cute looking. Stand by, that's okay. They're darn all.

SPEAKER_00 32:10

I'll ask this about this game, and it'll come for every other one as well, because I think it's an important thing to consider, boys. Um what's the replayability on this game? I know there's not much for it takes two, because once you know the story, you know the story.

SPEAKER_06 32:25

So you can replay it all the time. You can replay it all the time.

SPEAKER_00 32:29

What about it takes two? Have you replayed it?

SPEAKER_06 32:31

Yep. I'm not even kidding. I've replayed all the co-op games. All of them? Yes.

SPEAKER_00 32:36

Oh, okay. Which one have you replayed the most?

SPEAKER_06 32:38

I can't even tell you because I've replayed all of them. I played the fifth. I played the fact. No, but like I seriously replay all of them. Like when you especially have like rainy days or like especially in winter when we're just like, well, now we have the dogs because we live we bring them for walks, but like when we have nothing to do or like it's snowing and I don't want to go outside, we will replay platform like the co-op games.

SPEAKER_00 32:58

Imagine gaming as much as this.

SPEAKER_06 33:00

Oh yeah, but we have older kids too, so it's not as bad, right? We'll get there. Yeah. So we love to like replay co-op games, and we're always looking for new co-op games to play. Okay. So it's definitely like we've replayed every single one of those games.

SPEAKER_02 33:14

Step one, have a partner that also games.

SPEAKER_06 33:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 33:17

Step two, get Battle Block Theater. Oh my god. Oh no, you don't game on Steam. Oh my god. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 33:24

I love it so much. I wonder if it's on PlayStation. I did, I didn't know. Scratchers is probably.

SPEAKER_06 33:29

I did look into getting a Steam, but they don't sell them anymore.

SPEAKER_02 33:32

Getting a Steam or getting a Steam Deck? Like the Steam Deck, yes. Ah yeah. Yeah, I know. It sucks.

SPEAKER_06 33:38

It sucks that they're I went on the website, they're like, non for sale. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 33:41

So split fiction and split fiction. I'm assuming that's the one you didn't replay the most.

SPEAKER_06 33:47

I replayed every single one of those.

SPEAKER_02 33:48

I know, but the most, I mean. Yeah. Because it came out not too long ago.

SPEAKER_00 33:54

What is split fiction?

SPEAKER_02 33:56

Somebody please have.

SPEAKER_06 33:57

So basically, like there's two girls and they go, they were like into like a uh a writer's uh I don't know how to explain it, world. Yeah, world, and they put them in like a little like bubble and they try to take out like they don't know this is happening, and they try to take out all their information from their brain to be able to like steal them basically. But she falls into the same bubble as the other girl because she was like, This is getting a little weird, and then so they fall into like a science, science sci-fi slash fantasy world. So you kind of like flip-flop and you have to work again, you have to work together to be able to apparently it's very good.

SPEAKER_02 34:34

Very good, yeah. So, yeah. How good?

SPEAKER_06 34:37

Very good. I I've replayed it a few times.

SPEAKER_00 34:39

Did you say it's your favorite best out of the four games?

SPEAKER_06 34:42

Is it my favorite? We'll never know.

SPEAKER_01 34:45

We'll never know. Well, yeah, we will know.

SPEAKER_03 34:48

We will know.

SPEAKER_06 34:49

We will know eventually.

SPEAKER_03 34:51

Is it the kind of game that you would play on the couch? Away out.

SPEAKER_02 34:59

A way out. Yep. Uh can you yeah, yeah, the prison game. Yep. Uh it's a prison game.

SPEAKER_06 35:04

It is a prison game. So you're two prisoners at Escape Prison. You have to work together to escape.

SPEAKER_02 35:09

Super.

SPEAKER_06 35:10

I cannot tell you the ending, though. I cannot tell you the ending.

SPEAKER_02 35:13

You've played? Yeah, I've played. I haven't finished it, but you haven't finished it?

SPEAKER_06 35:17

No. Okay, I really can't tell you. I cannot tell anyone the ending.

SPEAKER_02 35:21

No, no. Oh, God. It's good.

SPEAKER_06 35:24

The ending is good? It's so good. I'm not telling you. I can't tell you the ending. She looks really if I tell you the ending, it's gonna ruin the whole game.

SPEAKER_00 35:33

Well, I got my pick. Have you played uh A Way Out with somebody? We uh yeah, with Gab. You have to play with it.

SPEAKER_06 35:38

You have to play with some oh the pretty cowboy. You have to play with someone. Okay. Like these are games you have to play with people. Oh, you can't play alone at all? Except the planned versus zombies. Like it's not a game where you can just play alone.

SPEAKER_00 36:00

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_06 36:01

Okay, they are not games that you can play alone. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 36:04

Uh just so just by uh her ex genuine excitement about a way out, like I wanna go there. Um, but I have a I have a I have something about the plan versus zombies. I'll wait to see what you guys answer before I give my thoughts.

SPEAKER_03 36:22

Yeah, I think there's a replayability uh with plans versus versus zombies. There's an arcadey side that I think you you get mostly like uh for Switch games. Uh you know Switch games are are very good for couch co-ops, Mario parties. I think it kind of brings it together and you can work together and it's not as frustrating. The other three games, and correct me if I'm wrong, but um they're mostly like a story. So once you've done it, you know the story. So there's not there is replayability to do it, but it wouldn't be something that you play the most. What do you do, right? Checking for your tails.

SPEAKER_00 36:58

Oh poker face. She doesn't have 20 tails, she's just straight hair. Yeah, tail maybe one like that.

SPEAKER_03 37:06

Where's your tail? I have a no tail like you. Um yeah, so uh I I'm I'm edging towards plants versus zombies as well. Okay, but again, there was a reaction with a way out. And I mean, breaking out of a prison, working with someone, that that's pretty cool too.

SPEAKER_00 37:25

Yeah, but once you know it, but once you know how to do it, are you really like okay? What's the fun of redoing it again? So I'm gonna ask G a question.

SPEAKER_03 37:32

Okay, and a way out. Yeah. Is there different ways to escape the prison?

SPEAKER_02 37:37

Uh I don't remember. I don't I don't think so.

SPEAKER_03 37:40

Okay, second question.

SPEAKER_02 37:41

Have you played the game? Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 37:45

What?

SPEAKER_02 37:46

I'm looking for your toes. Stop asking me. Okay, so what's your pick?

SPEAKER_03 37:52

You pick.

SPEAKER_02 37:53

Oh, you want me to pick first? Yeah. Okay, I am going with Plans versus Zombies. Um for the main reason that you said that the other games are linear, so they end. Obviously, you replayed them because you like them, which is perfectly fine. Plan versus zombies, what got me clicking is your genuine excitement for the characters that are cute and fun and stuff. Yeah. And you said you can play up to four players, which means you can get your whole family involved, which is a nice fun night for a family. So that's my pick.

SPEAKER_06 38:32

You're influencing all the time.

SPEAKER_02 38:34

Sorry, we have you on the podcast. Uh I'm just saying, I'm I'm going off of what she feeds. So are you doing plants? I don't know yet.

SPEAKER_04 38:42

Smoke and plants.

SPEAKER_00 38:46

Uh I want to go plants versus zombies, but uh I also like I'm stuck like you earlier with you knew it was Spyro, but you wanted it to be something else. Yeah, it's like I thought I I saw an and and a genuine feeling when you were talking about the way a way out. Um so I'm gonna go with that. Again, special mentioned that doesn't count. I won't take credit for it for it, but plants vs. Zombies, even though I put an asterisk next to it. Um but I'm gonna go with uh a way out. Okay. So I just want to say one thing.

SPEAKER_02 39:18

Although I sounded very confident with my pick, I'm not very confident. The reason why is because split fiction, it takes two, and even I think a way out, they're all they're all very highly rated games. So they're they're like, you know, a split fiction was in uh in the talks for game of the year last year. Really? Okay. So it's a new game. Yeah. So they're all highly rated games. However, the best games are not always the ones you enjoy, the highest rated. You can appreciate them for what they are, yeah. But when you're doing a couch co-op, you kind of want to have fun with with people with you, maybe not play a serious game. So I'm going with that.

SPEAKER_03 39:59

But that's my pick. So I'm a SG, but I'm gonna ask you, is there different ways to escape the chill?

SPEAKER_05 40:04

I can't tell you until you play it. I can play it with you.

SPEAKER_00 40:09

Um my brother doesn't want to play. Can you play online? Uh you have to be on a couch. No, you can play online.

SPEAKER_06 40:23

Well, he could be sitting on a couch at home and I'll play with him sitting on my own. Well, you can do that.

SPEAKER_00 40:27

Okay. Okay, okay. But it's not like it doesn't have to be like on one TV with split screen or like whatever.

SPEAKER_06 40:32

No, you just have to work together.

SPEAKER_00 40:34

Okay. So what are you going with? Oh, you know, you went with plants. You went with you still haven't decided.

SPEAKER_06 40:40

He's stressed out.

SPEAKER_00 40:41

It's between, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 40:42

Yeah. I'm not handling them this well. It's okay. Is it right? We're gonna get through this, PL. We're gonna get through this.

SPEAKER_06 40:47

You're not reading me properly?

SPEAKER_03 40:48

Uh no, it's just that there's there's there's just two ways of looking at it, and I don't know. Um you know what? I should have met my gut feeling the first time, so I'm gonna go with uh a way out. Boom.

SPEAKER_06 41:03

So a way out, plants, and a way out.

SPEAKER_00 41:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 41:06

You are all wrong. No, it's a vision. It was it takes two. Nice. It was good choice. I can see why. I absolutely love playing that game with my husband. He probably hates playing with me because sometimes I have to get him the remote to get by my spot. But yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:24

Are you serious?

SPEAKER_06 41:25

I loved it takes two, yes.

SPEAKER_00 41:27

That would have been my number four. It was that was the last one.

SPEAKER_06 41:30

A good game for us to play. Really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:33

And you you you're saying it was good for a relationship to play with it.

SPEAKER_06 41:37

It was good for it tests your relationship a hundred percent for sure. Yeah. Um, and yeah, it was it's a beautiful story. It's a nice story, yeah. For sure. It just teaches like you know, couples to to not just like divorce and just like work at it kind of thing, you know? I just thought it was cute.

SPEAKER_00 41:52

Yeah, that's cute. Good story, thank you. Yeah, cuter than uh plants and zombies. Okay, but just for fun, what was your the order?

SPEAKER_06 42:02

Uh so I would go uh split fiction. I I loved it. For fuck's sakes, but it pissed I that's the one of the like games I I rage quit. Okay because there's one part like I think it was lasers that I just like couldn't laser means laser beans. Um I couldn't like get by. It was kind of um I loved a way out too. We played that one, and then zombie plants vs. Zombies for sure, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 42:28

Yeah, okay. Nice. Plants vs. Zombies is last.

SPEAKER_06 42:32

So nope, split fiction was definitely last. Oh, yeah, okay, okay. It was a beautiful game, like uh art styles and everything, but it it really pissed me off. And then like someone gets to like fly a dragon while you're just like rolling around. So that's another thing that pissed me off because I didn't get the dragon.

SPEAKER_00 42:47

Got it. Makes sense. Checks out though. Yeah, nice kind of insulting, you know. Like, let's all say hi to Aiden and James. Hi guys. Those are my kids. Some of them. Yeah. Third question.

SPEAKER_06 43:04

Yes, third question. Okay. Which Switch game had me in a chokehold?

SPEAKER_03 43:11

Oh, wow. In a chokehold. So yeah. Technically, Switch don't have like wires.

SPEAKER_06 43:18

So like Yeah, they did technically choke me out, but like I could not get off of.

SPEAKER_00 43:23

Okay. Oh, that's that's what you mean. Like I didn't know what you meant by that. And we just boosted our views by 20% of that.

SPEAKER_02 43:34

Maybe we should pivot to ASMR. I don't know. Screw you, HR. You mean chokehold as in like you can't put it down.

SPEAKER_06 43:43

Yeah, yeah, I can't put that out. Sorry. Should I probably phrase that better? I just wanted clarification. So the game that like literally had me to chokehold. Untitled Goose Games.

SPEAKER_03 43:53

Uh Untitled what?

SPEAKER_06 43:55

Goose games.

SPEAKER_03 43:57

Goose games.

SPEAKER_06 43:58

Yeah, untitled goose games.

Alright, I have a lot of questions.

SPEAKER_06 44:50

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 44:51

Okay, because I know I have no idea what any of those are. Except Tiny Bookshop. This week specifically, one of my friends talked to me about Tiny Bookshop. Like just catching up. Yeah. And obviously, me being me, my question when I catch up with people is so what you been gaming lately? Yeah. Right? Huh? What you been gaming lately? This guy gets it. Wow.

SPEAKER_03 45:13

World of Warcraft? Yeah. Um so um did the person that you talked to about tiny bookshop say that it uh hold on. How did you say uh it uh how'd you describe it again? It's a tiny bookshop. No, no, it uh it uh it what game uh put you in a hold? Choke hold.

unknown 45:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 45:39

The person mentioned that the tiny bookshop put them in a chokehold.

SPEAKER_00 45:42

They did not. Oh but they did say that uh it was something that was related to real books. That's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_04 45:51

It's so cool.

SPEAKER_00 45:52

Like if I was a book nerd, I think that would be super fun. It would be for me the equivalent of um trading card game shop simulator, but having real Pokemon or Magic the Gathering cards in there.

SPEAKER_06 46:06

And if you know me.

SPEAKER_00 46:08

Yeah, she does like books.

SPEAKER_03 46:10

And she does have like books about choking people.

SPEAKER_00 46:16

I'm gonna cut it. We are discovering so much about all this today.

SPEAKER_06 46:20

Smut books. Yes, I read smut books.

SPEAKER_03 46:22

Will I have to cut this?

SPEAKER_06 46:23

No, I don't care. Okay. I read smut books, I don't care.

SPEAKER_03 46:26

What was the safety word there? Uh papaya. No, no, no, no. No, we had a safer from the last episode uh we had a safer, I don't remember what it was. Did you hear it? The word about the book that the guy um the guy ran into the woods and he he said a word prey. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 46:46

Prey, hunting prey.

SPEAKER_00 46:47

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_06 46:48

Remember the book I told you about?

SPEAKER_00 46:49

Yeah. Oh my god, this is crazy. Interesting. So tiny bookshop. Yeah, it would have a lot of you know smut books in there. Yeah, yeah, and it makes sense.

SPEAKER_06 47:00

In my bookshop.

SPEAKER_03 47:01

But is there that those kind of books in the tiny smut stuff?

SPEAKER_06 47:05

No, because it is like a oh PG friendly.

SPEAKER_03 47:08

Yeah. Okay. Okay. So this one's out. Yeah. Cancel.

SPEAKER_00 47:14

I I would like, just from my own personal uh knowledge, I would like to know more about the untitled Goose game because I saw that that uh with my my son at some point, and we're like, this looks fun. Yeah. What is it? You get to be an asshole as a goose.

SPEAKER_06 47:27

Yeah, basically you like you cause chaos as a goose. Like you steal stuff. It's so like when I tell you like I cried laughing playing this game the whole time, it's like not even funny. But like you literally are a goose and you cause chaos every day. Is it like uh goat simulator? I've never played goat simulator, so I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_00 47:46

Just basically a goat running around.

SPEAKER_02 47:47

No, I think it's more um it's more at PlayStation of the month. Top down view. Uh yeah, and then you're like you can static levels.

SPEAKER_06 47:56

You can like quack at people.

unknown 47:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 47:58

So people are like annoying, quack, and they're like freak out of the thing. That is so funny. Hey, can I hear quack? So funny, and then like you steal stuff so people like to kind of chase you too, and it's like it's it's very good.

SPEAKER_03 48:10

So um, and what's the the goal of the game?

SPEAKER_06 48:14

I don't remember the goal. Like, it's just it's so funny.

SPEAKER_03 48:17

I think you have like little missions.

SPEAKER_06 48:19

Yeah, you have little missions, but like you just check stuff off, but like I never really paid attention to the goal because of how funny.

SPEAKER_00 48:29

Did it get you in a chokehold?

SPEAKER_06 48:31

Did it always? You have to play the game to understand this goose.

SPEAKER_01 48:38

Look at her, she's like fucking laughing. She's giddy about the goose. Yeah, she really likes the goose. The giddy goose.

unknown 48:43

So funny.

SPEAKER_01 48:44

Okay. Oh man, now I want to play the giddy goose game. So it looks goose. It looks so much fun. Okay, we go.

SPEAKER_00 48:53

And she's finally crying on this podcast. You're so played, dude.

SPEAKER_04 48:57

Your eyes are water.

SPEAKER_06 48:59

Okay, sorry.

SPEAKER_00 49:00

Okay. Alright, so untitled Goose Game. Yeah, that looks actually fun. Uh it comes on special once in a while, too. Every once in a while, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 49:07

Cozy Growth. Yep.

SPEAKER_00 49:08

Yeah, what the hell is that?

SPEAKER_06 49:09

Cozy Grove.

SPEAKER_00 49:10

Grove. Grove. Oh, okay. Why did she say Ghost?

SPEAKER_06 49:12

Growth, Growth. I'm Grove and Cozy Grove. R G-R-O-V-E.

SPEAKER_03 49:17

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 49:18

Yep.

SPEAKER_02 49:19

Cozy Grove. Is it like an animal crossing type game?

SPEAKER_06 49:22

I've never played Animal Crossing, so I'm not sure. Okay. Um, this is kind of like a a hide and hide and seek. Doesn't sound like it has a hide and kind of seek kind of game. So like you're a little like Girl Scout and you put put on an island and you have to like um your dream.

SPEAKER_01 49:40

I I dreamt to be a Girl Scout. I knew it. I know.

SPEAKER_06 49:44

And you get put on an island of like bears, and they each have like missions for you to go find stuff, and then you can like dig stuff up and like solve puzzles.

SPEAKER_01 49:51

The bear on grinder.

SPEAKER_02 49:56

Um finding friends for your friends.

SPEAKER_06 49:59

You have different missions. My girlfriend wouldn't like that.

SPEAKER_02 50:01

I'm grinder, but I don't care. I'm a bear, I don't care. I'm the own person.

SPEAKER_06 50:05

So you have the bears to have different missions for you, and you have to like complete each mission. The more you complete, the more the the uh island opens. Yeah. And each mission. And they're like kind of like ghost bears or themselves. Yeah, yeah, like spirits animals or whatever. Exactly. So it's it's more I know, has him in a chokehold.

SPEAKER_02 50:25

Bears, yeah. I knew it. So it has more of a it scratches that itch of like the more you do, the more you get rewarded, sort of thing. And the more the island opens up, the more you have to do, the more.

SPEAKER_06 50:40

Yes, but like you can only do so much in a day.

SPEAKER_02 50:43

Oh, interesting.

SPEAKER_06 50:44

After that, there like after you do all your missions, like there's no more to do, so you have to come back the next day.

SPEAKER_00 50:48

Okay, so that's an aspect that gets you in a chokehold.

SPEAKER_04 50:52

Or it does. Or it does.

SPEAKER_00 50:53

Yeah, because because it kept you play a little bit every day, so you don't it doesn't get redundant too quickly. You're not playing too much and then it kills it. You have to go the next day just to to get a little more, and the next day to get a little more, so you're kind of like so it's not like a 24 hour you have to put the game down.

SPEAKER_02 51:09

It's like you sleep in the game.

SPEAKER_06 51:13

Well, if I like mobile games, yeah. Those are most mobile games, right?

SPEAKER_00 51:16

Like heyday or yeah.

SPEAKER_06 51:19

So you kind of have to like put it down and then you have to like come back the next day if you remember.

SPEAKER_00 51:23

Ah, okay. If you remember. You're kind of underwhelmingly selling this, so I think um Okay, uh totally spies. Talk to me about that.

SPEAKER_06 51:32

So it's like the the show totally spies.

SPEAKER_02 51:34

Yeah, I know. Oh yeah, it's like a teenager thing.

SPEAKER_06 51:36

Yeah, you played to like whatever. You play up to like four people and you can play with friends. Play with your daughters. But uh no, I played my one of my like friends Sam. Okay and uh Sophie. So we played at her house, and because you have to play at the same house, if that makes sense, like the same TV.

SPEAKER_00 51:53

Okay, and you just like co-op but an actual same network, yeah. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_06 51:58

Because we tried to do it online and it didn't work. Um so we all had to like get at the same spot and then play the game together. So we just sat there for like hours just. But what's it about you complete missions as well? Um you're a spy, I can't tell you.

SPEAKER_00 52:11

Jesus. I'm gonna go right away and say that's not the game because how can you be into chokehold if to play you have to go to some place and you're a cocooning person at your house, is what I learned about you. So you won't just be like going every day to somebody else's place unless they do a podcast. Like you know what I mean? So so I don't think I don't think that's your choke uh chokehold uh game. I do say so.

SPEAKER_02 52:36

What's what do you do? You just have your own store?

SPEAKER_06 52:38

Well, you have to create your own store. You like kind of like a little buggy kind of thing, and you just like create your own store and sell books. Yeah, you could sell books and like get books and whatnot. So it's like a whole lot of things.

SPEAKER_00 52:50

Tell me one book you sold.

SPEAKER_06 52:52

I'm not telling you anything.

SPEAKER_00 52:52

Okay, so I got my pick. Well, wouldn't you tell me a book you sold? Would that be a tell? It would really tell me telling me the name of a book you sold would be a tell.

SPEAKER_06 53:02

Yes, because you I know too much.

SPEAKER_00 53:05

Okay, well, that's clearly one of the options to consider, guys. She's avoiding this question on this.

SPEAKER_02 53:10

Well, I got my answer.

SPEAKER_00 53:14

Gee's answer is tiny bookshop. I can see it. Yeah. Um, but I'm I want to say tiny bookshop two because there's only one. Totally spies, no way, because I already said so. Untitled Goose Game, I'm sure, is really fun.

SPEAKER_01 53:30

You already said so.

SPEAKER_06 53:35

No one if I if it is that one, it's no.

SPEAKER_00 53:38

No. I'm not I'm not taking it. Uh Untitled Goose Game. Um, these games that are really, really fun, they're that's just what they are. They're really, really fun, and then you move on. Well, because you haven't played it. It's not you can't be yeah, you're trying too hard. No, you haven't played it. Okay, well, you know what? I'll give you five dollars if the answer is Untitled Goose Goose Game. Um, Cozy Grove, I still have dollars on you. No, who carries actual money now? I'll send you a new transfer. Uh Cozy Grove. I don't I don't I didn't feel it. I I think the fact that you did not want to say one of the books you sold, I don't know why, but I want to find out more. I'm gonna go with Tiny Bookshop just to at the same place, at the same time, uh, give a shout out to my friend who uh likes that game as well. Okay. A tiny bookshop for me too.

SPEAKER_06 54:29

You too? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 54:30

It's I think it's a type of game like a farming simulator where you like you look at your watch and you're like, oh yeah, it's 2 a.m. I have to go to bed because I work at 6 a.m. tomorrow.

SPEAKER_06 54:39

So yeah, that's fair.

SPEAKER_00 54:41

Yeah, that's what you can do with that game?

SPEAKER_06 54:43

That's fair.

SPEAKER_00 54:44

Okay. Oh I mean, that means that's not the answer.

unknown 54:46

Shit.

SPEAKER_00 54:47

Like, no, I think that means it's not fair. She wants us to change the answer.

SPEAKER_03 54:51

No, I I think she was trying to throw us off by saying that with Tiny Bookshop. Um Cozy Grove, it's like you already picked your answer.

SPEAKER_06 55:00

You can't look at me anymore. It's like she didn't sell it.

SPEAKER_03 55:02

I'll do the hell I want. It's my house. I I think she didn't sell that tiny uh could Cozy Grove enough that it's pr it probably isn't that game. Um totally spies cyber mission. You could you could maybe get some frustrations in there, but if you're playing with people on a couch, then it's just different, and you just hey uh let's play something else and then you move on because you don't get frustrated as a group. Um Untitled Goose Games as fun as it can be, maybe there's some there there's something about what the hell do I do now? Like how do I move on in this game? And there's some actual frustration, so um it's either between untitled goose games, but yeah. Um I'm going with untitled Goose Games.

SPEAKER_06 55:55

You guys are all wrong.

SPEAKER_03 55:58

Cozy Grove.

SPEAKER_06 55:59

Cozy Grove! That is my second choice. But Untitled Goose Game I did play and absolutely love, but that was on PlayStation.

SPEAKER_00 56:08

What's your order?

SPEAKER_06 56:10

Um well on because I didn't play Untitled Goose Game. Number one is I didn't play it on Switch.

SPEAKER_00 56:15

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 56:16

So I played Untitled Goose Game on PlayStation, absolutely loved it, and like I said, I laughed, cried the whole freaking time. That was because it was on PlayStation. So for um uh Switch, it's definitely Cozy Grove and then Tolby Spice, because I have not played the bookshop yet.

SPEAKER_03 56:35

Oh that's why she didn't want to say it!

SPEAKER_01 56:40

Nice good job, good job, good job.

SPEAKER_06 56:43

That was a good one.

SPEAKER_01 56:44

All right, all right, I got one.

SPEAKER_06 56:46

Sean is so disappointed. I got one. I am so disappointed.

SPEAKER_00 56:49

I got one point out of it. Uh so yeah, so at this point, uh what how many did you get? I got an honorable mention. How many did I got nothing? Well, you got one, you got the game. No, Spyro didn't count because I knew. Yeah, yeah, I'm being honest. Um, okay. Well, I want I want a chance for redemption, so uh let's go. You had a bonus question. Let's go with the bonus question. Go with the bonus question.

SPEAKER_06 57:20

Okay, what's my favorite team slash squad game? Dead Island 2, Outbreak, COD Zombies, the number six, COD Zombies World at War, that was in 08, or Dying Light the Beast.

SPEAKER_03 57:35

Okay, hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_06 57:35

So Dead Island 2 Dead Island 2 Outbreak Call of Zombies number 6.

SPEAKER_02 57:43

Outbreak is that just one game, Outbreak COD Zombies X.

SPEAKER_06 57:46

Yeah, yeah, the sixth one. Because there's also COD Zombies World at War that was out in 08. So that's Call of Duty The Zombie Mode.

SPEAKER_02 57:56

Is it Call of Duty game?

SPEAKER_06 57:58

Yeah, zombie mode, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 58:00

Dying Light The Beast.

SPEAKER_06 58:02

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 58:03

That's the beast. Okay, so Dead Island, Outbreak, uh Zombies World at War.

SPEAKER_06 58:10

Okay and Dying Light the Beast.

SPEAKER_03 58:12

I I did play uh the WOW Call of Duty. Honestly, that well not WOW, but uh World at War. Wow.

unknown 58:22

Wow!

SPEAKER_03 58:23

That was one of the greatest games. Like for the zombie mode, for the co-op that you could play. Uh I absolutely love it.

SPEAKER_06 58:32

Can I just FYI? This might be a trick question.

SPEAKER_03 58:35

What?

SPEAKER_02 58:36

What is Outbreak? What'd you say?

SPEAKER_06 58:38

This might be a trick question. Okay. So it's an open one.

SPEAKER_02 58:40

You can't say that. Yeah, but what is zombies?

SPEAKER_06 58:44

Like Call of Duty zombies. So instead of like fighting people, you fight zombies. Yeah, yeah. So there's zombies. Call of Duty took out two different zombie games. Well, more than two now, but those are the two.

SPEAKER_02 58:55

Okay, so there's Dead Island.

SPEAKER_03 58:56

No, your choices. Dead Island 2. Oh, you want to do it? Call of Duty Zombies Outbreak, Call of Duty Zombies World at War. Oh, and Dying Light.

unknown 59:05

Yes.

SPEAKER_06 59:06

People just don't listen.

SPEAKER_00 59:08

No, no. I want G on this one. Okay. Okay. Uh good job for your better at this than us. But uh yeah, I thought that was also very confusing. Okay. Could you repeat them again? There's two CODs.

SPEAKER_06 59:23

There's two CODs, yes. There's two COD device. Thank you for understanding.

SPEAKER_02 59:29

A zombie theme going on in there. Definitely. What was the what was your question?

SPEAKER_06 59:34

Which is my favorite team slash like squad game.

SPEAKER_00 59:38

So Dead Island 2 is a team slash squad game?

SPEAKER_06 59:41

Mm-hmm. You can play with more than two people.

SPEAKER_00 59:44

No way. Yep. Hey, we got that game through PlayStation Share. Yeah, we do. Yeah. So we could we could squad up and kill some zombies.

SPEAKER_06 59:52

Yes. If I would have known, we would have been playing them a long time ago.

SPEAKER_00 59:56

No, no, but I actually uh We're actually gonna do an episode on that. Yeah. Uh we want to do an episode on that, but planet planet for uh October for Halloween.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:05

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:05

So uh we might play maybe uh as zombies?

SPEAKER_06 1:00:09

We could that's how we talk the whole time.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:13

So you know how uh how uh our buddy Shane uh cosplayed at uh the Red Dead Redemption 2 episode? Yeah, yeah, you remember Arthur Morgan? Uh yesterday he was telling me that for the Ocarina of Time episode, he wants to cosplay somebody. Maybe somebody from the village, like he wants to do something.

SPEAKER_02 1:00:32

I hope he dresses up as Link and has like this very short skirt going on as a skirt. Yeah, look at him when he's young versus when he's but yes, Link in Ocarina of Time is wearing a tunic, which is like a shirt slash okay like skirt.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:53

I can picture it. Yeah, but anyway, so so so the cosplay thing like within the podcast, I think it's pretty cool. Like if you would have gotten dressed as Beatrix that time we did Hogwarts Pegasus, but whatever.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:03

We'll do it next time.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:04

Yeah. Um, I have no clue. I have no clue. I'm gonna say Left 4 Dead, uh not Left for Dead 2. Um Dead Island 2. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:11

Um okay, so um I I don't think it's Dead Island 2, um, because I think it's just a very good solo game by itself. Um, a team squad game. There's two Call of Duties in there, so maybe you're just trying to throw us off with by having two choices. Um can you go down into details of what the team squad aspect of Dying Light is?

SPEAKER_06 1:01:35

Just like playing with another partner. So I played with my husband, uh, one of my friends Nip and one of our friends from Texas. Oh, Nip? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:42

Ah, I love that guy.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:44

I have no idea who he is, but you did do a shout out for five minutes at one of the podcasts. No, that was Levy.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:49

Oh, that was Levy? Yeah. Did he play that?

SPEAKER_06 1:01:51

He we played all together, all four of us, yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:54

Was it Nip, your husband and Levy? Yep. Which one?

SPEAKER_06 1:01:57

Uh the the beast, dying light.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:00

Oh, yeah. I'm gonna go with Dying Light then. So is it Sylvain? Sylvain Nippenberg?

SPEAKER_06 1:02:04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:05

Okay. So I uh funny story. You know this guy? No, no, no, so so I I don't know him, but I've game with him in the past. Oh, have you? On COD.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:14

Oh shit, they probably played with my husband because they're always playing together.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:17

Really? Crazy. Like back in the days when I was still living on my parents. Oh, I saw my yeah, and I was friends with uh it's a Mike Charbonneau.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:24

Um no, I don't know what that is.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:27

No. So we we had like he brought over some people and Nippenberg was one of them.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:31

He knows everyone. World is small, crazy.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:33

Yeah, so um definitely play that with uh them four.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:38

Um you're gonna need to tell them that they've been mentioned, these people on the on the podcast. Yeah, they're basically celebrities now.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:45

Levi knows he's watched it and he sent it to his uh his wife. Um, where's she from? The Philippines.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:51

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:52

Yeah, coming back to the question. So what's the team squad aspect of Dying Light?

SPEAKER_06 1:02:56

Like how do you uh you just play as like a team, like you kill the zombies and you get your missions done.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:01

Is it like waves? Just like uh in the Call of Duty?

SPEAKER_06 1:03:04

You can just be running like anywhere, and then the zombies are literally scattered everywhere. Like everywhere. And then when they do notice you, yeah, they'll like squ swarm towards you.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:15

And you have missions?

SPEAKER_06 1:03:16

Yep, you have missions, and then you have um like safe spaces, which are like blue lights where you can like stay there, which I usually do because I'm scared of the dark because other kinds of zombies come out.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:28

You're so funny. You play all these zombie games and scary games, and they're like, I don't want to play!

unknown 1:03:32

Here you go.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:33

That's what happens.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:34

Yeah. Here you go, husband. That's what happened.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:37

Do you call him husband? I don't know. I don't know his name.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:39

So husband. Hi babe. Um but yeah, so I um I like to stay in the blue light because I'm too scared.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:47

Because like not the dying light.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:49

The extra big zombies come out, yes. The beast.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:53

Uh you're saying like the blue light, not the dying light.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:57

Oh.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:58

So uh Dead Island 2.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:00

Yep.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:00

What's the team squad aspect of it? Do you do missions or is it like the same as a big thing?

SPEAKER_06 1:04:05

Yeah, kind of the same thing, except like uh you don't have like the you have a safe space, but it's like a house instead of like just the blue light or whatever. Um the blue light you have to open them up as you go, and then you have multiple like safe spots. Okay. Um that one you just open up, I guess, like houses or whatever it's called, and then you just those are your safe spaces, but there's not many. So there's like one, there's different towns you go to, and there's like gates you have to go through. And when you go through like a different place where I don't know how to explain it. Um like movies when they have like those round gates where you have to go through portals. Yeah, portals. You go into there and then you're in a new city, so that you have a different safe space in that city. Okay. So it's like you don't have multiple safe spaces like you do in Dying Light, where there's like multiple blue lights where you can go to, but like you need to hurry there at night because the zombies are like uh ten times more scarier. Okay. But like in Call of Duty, it swarms and swarms and swarms.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:05

Yeah, because it's all waves and you're all in the same spot.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:07

And there's some still everywhere, but it's like more swarmy. Yeah, that's what I don't know. That's a word. And then like swarmy.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:14

There is kind of a mission with the with the Call of Duty's, and you can like beat it technically.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:19

Um helicopter comes, get two.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:22

Yeah, and I I was never a fan of the Call of Duty zombie games. Like you have two on them, but I know a lot of people were mental over that. So like that nib feller.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:33

Yeah, he probably was. Oh he was yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:37

So uh which one did you play the most?

SPEAKER_06 1:05:40

Um probably the Call of Duty's Yeah?

SPEAKER_00 1:05:43

Yep. Is it one that you you did the the co op thing most with with your own? I've played every single one of them with people. Oh really? Yep. Okay. Um I don't I don't think I want to go with Dead Island two because to me, having played Dead Island one, I think it's more of a Maybe it has a function of that, but I don't think it's made for that. Versus the Call of Duties are made for that. Dying Light, I f I don't know anything about that game. Is it more one or the other? Can can you play single player Dying Light? Okay, can you play single player the Call of Duty ones? Is it like all the other Call of Duties where people like campaign? No, and they just play online.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:23

World at War had a solid campaign. Yeah. That's World Yeah, and the outbreak.

SPEAKER_06 1:06:29

I think just Call of Duty is just getting a little bit worse and worse. Of course it is. I just want to say it out loud in case there's people out there.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:37

Okay. I got my pick. I think it's the consensus. I got my pick. Okay. I'll say last. Shotgun last. I already said mine, so. Really? What is it? Dead Island 2. Okay. I I honestly it's a toss-up for me.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:50

So you're saying there's a chance. So you're saying there's a chance. Nice. We got a chance to try cheese. Um Best Team Squad.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:00

My favorite. I think he's thinking hard.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:02

Look at that frickin' pen go.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:04

Yeah, oh, oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:09

He got it. He got it.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:11

Um I felt dying light too, but I'm gonna go with Outbreak.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:23

Okay. You guys are alright, because I don't have a favorite. I love every single one of them. Damn it! Which one's your favorite?

SPEAKER_00 1:07:31

No, no, you gotta choose.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:34

I made this question thinking I can choose, and I cannot.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:37

You need to choose. I can't. You gotta choose? I don't. You're fired. So you're alright. Really?

SPEAKER_06 1:07:44

You can't choose one. I absolutely love every single one of them.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:47

Except G, right? Except for G's pick, right?

SPEAKER_06 1:07:50

Oh, yeah, sorry, except for G's pick.

SPEAKER_04 1:07:57

Sorry, G. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:59

That was a stupid pick. No, but seriously, there's not one you liked a little bit better than the other.

SPEAKER_06 1:08:09

I absolutely loved every single one of them.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:10

It's really tough to I I don't think that you okay. I'm not doubting what you're thinking.

SPEAKER_06 1:08:16

You are doubting. No, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:18

I do think I do believe that you really think that.

SPEAKER_06 1:08:20

I do.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:20

But I'm just thinking, as of myself, like, there's always something that can make you like something just even a hair better than one than another.

SPEAKER_06 1:08:29

Depending on the mood I am, each single one of them, like blew my mind. No, but I love her in a chokehold. Pad me in the tail color. No, every single colour.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:39

Wasn't that another question? The chokehold question?

SPEAKER_06 1:08:42

I honestly just preferring to the other one. Every single one of them I absolutely loved. Okay. And maybe it was just because of the people I was playing with, or you know, like just I just loved every single one of them.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:54

But seriously, which one is the I don't have one.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:58

It's gonna bug me.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:59

I'm gonna have trouble sleeping. Yes, Sean. People are different from you sometimes. Which one have you played the most of? Um that's the beauty of living in this world.

SPEAKER_06 1:09:10

Because was it during COVID, maybe?

SPEAKER_03 1:09:14

I don't remember.

SPEAKER_06 1:09:15

I don't remember. But yeah. Every single one of them I absolutely love. And I think when I that's why I put an extra question because I was like, oh yeah, that's fair. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:09:25

But it's fun, it's fun to have games that you actually like that you could go back and love them as much as other games. I love going back to games.
