All right. Well, hey, hey, good thing. You got you already got um the beer is good because you were too in a much in a hurry. Bunch of drunks.

SPEAKER_07 4:02

Long time ago. All right. Well, hey, to this. Cheers, everybody. Cheers.

SPEAKER_03 4:13

Oh, it still tastes good from a few weeks ago. It's not bad, eh? No.

SPEAKER_04 4:16

There's still quality carbonation as well. Yeah, yeah, a little bit.

SPEAKER_03 4:19

There's like weird things in it, but that's okay. Happens.

unknown 4:22

Oh.

SPEAKER_07 4:23

Am I tasting iron?

SPEAKER_03 4:24

Maybe you need some in your body.

SPEAKER_04 4:29

I think your mouth was too close to the mic.

SPEAKER_07 4:39

Rated M for mature. Alright. Alright. So, uh, yeah, we did the chairs. We did the cheers. I'll just go for seconds because I got distracted.

SPEAKER_02 4:46

He's so distracted, it didn't take much.

SPEAKER_04 4:50

Does it still taste like iron? No. No? No. No. Okay. It's good. Yeah. Tastes uh there's a strong uh I think like pineapple.

SPEAKER_08 4:58

Oh, interesting.

SPEAKER_07 4:59

Yeah, there's some sort of citrus. Yeah. Okay. Not bad. Um, yeah, not bad at all. No, it's like Robin when she sells Ted by Tex. Not bad at all. Um, how Met Your Mother joke, you wouldn't get it. Unless you've watched Hog Met Your Mother, of course. Have you, Dr. James? Oh. I think he has. Yeah, I think he has too. Okay, so hey, this is about you. Sorry. What are we taking the whole show for?

SPEAKER_00 5:28

Hey, we're a family here. It's all good.

SPEAKER_07 5:30

It's all good.

SPEAKER_08 5:32

You're gonna make her cry.

SPEAKER_07 5:35

All right, so uh Resident Evil Games, okay. Um about Resident Evil Games, you've been talking to me about me, talking to me about it, and I've asked you a few times because I forgot the times that you had actually answered this. If you were to suggest three games, what would they be? But I would like you to tell them in order of yeah, it would be really good. But number three, two, and then one at the end. Okay. Just to keep them hooked.

SPEAKER_00 6:02

Well, because I know you mentioned something about like give me three reasons why uh I should play Resident Evil, because it's zombies, and usually you don't play those. So you and one reason I specifically I wanted to save it for the podcast. The story okay. It's uh like it's very complex because there's nine games, so they have to like find new stories and make it connect and all that. But essentially, it's an uh a a pharmaceutical company named Umbrella Corporation, okay. And uh they're very um into eugenics and uh changing humans uh by experimentation and uh by using specific uh viruses that could uh like the the main virus is a T virus, um, which was like a T virus project, and then they started to test it out on humans, and then they had like um different variations of it over time, so for the new games and all that. But and they eventually they gave um the virus or the like the power to like the government using it as bioweapons, and and Umbrella Corporation does not want to be involved with that, say like, oh, it's all the government, it's not us. And your job as any of the main protagonists, female uh male protagonists are in the game, um your goal is to find out more about the corruption of the pharmaceutical company and the government and all that, and that's the goal. So it gives you that motivation and incentive to find out more about it. So you're you're investigating. Yes, it's an investigation game.

SPEAKER_04 7:48

Yeah, is that so is it an investigation games, like as in the whole series is you're you're the protagonist trying to solve it.

SPEAKER_00 7:56

Yeah, you're trying to solve the mysteries of uh like why this happened, why it's like this. But you know umbrella's uh part of it, but you can't can prove it all that, but you have to try and figure it out by going through the story. So you have an incentive and a motivation to uh find out why, because it it's they used it to uh nefarious for nefarious uh reasons and they're trying to uh do all the nine of them connect?

SPEAKER_03 8:26

Because there's nine of them, right? Yes, so do all nine connect, or like some of them kind of just like go off on their own little adventure?

SPEAKER_00 8:32

So I I feel like sometimes they go off to make sure they can have more games and then try and connect them.

SPEAKER_08 8:40

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 8:40

But if you look on YouTube, like compilation of all the games, people have made videos where they they're all linked. Yeah, okay. So if you play the first one, you can follow. It's hard to follow at some points because there's so many storylines and characters, but uh the the main uh story is still there, it's going after Umbrella Corporation and stuff. So that's really interesting. And that's what captivated me uh with that. And the timeline of it.

SPEAKER_04 9:07

Like, wait, is it all in subsequent chronicle order, or um how long is it between the first and the ninth one?

SPEAKER_00 9:16

Oh geez, that that could yeah, that could take a while. Uh the well, the first one like came out in like 1996, like the first game. And after that, like it it just it varies. Like some of them, like like let's say one Resident Evil is between four and five, you know, like something like that, right? So it's kind of hard to pinpoint, but they all follow and they try and answer questions. Like, um, but that's the goal. And again, the scarcity of weapon ammo. So if you're not a fan of that, it might be hard. Okay, but um it's it's just I know he won't play.

SPEAKER_07 9:51

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Can it be dialed down with the difficulty levels? Yes, yeah, you can.

SPEAKER_03 9:56

He's only played on extreme. And we're back. Some of them, yes, some of them, yes. We're back.

SPEAKER_00 10:02

Absolutely, absolutely. Um and there's like before I go into the three, I'll just say a quick thing about an honorable mention that I that I have for the games that didn't make the cut, but I feel like they need to be mentioned. It's resonating you've got to.

SPEAKER_07 10:15

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. If you mention those right now, it'll kind of be obvious what's coming up. Well, there's like some cases. Okay, what if you do the honorable mentions at the end?

SPEAKER_00 10:24

Okay, okay. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 10:26

So the first dictating how smart show.

SPEAKER_03 10:28

I know you can't do the show that way.

SPEAKER_07 10:31

Yeah. But that works though. That works. But you think you can't spoil this much. You'd be like, I really recommend Resident Evil Forge, like, nope, you don't go back to the drawing board. Wrong answer.

SPEAKER_00 10:46

So the first one, Resident Evil 1 remake. Okay. So the first one came out in 1996, and the remake came out in 2002.

SPEAKER_02 10:56

Oh, wow.

SPEAKER_00 10:57

On the GameCube, actually. On the GameCube. On the GameCube. And I bought a GameCube just for that game.

SPEAKER_02 11:02

Oh wow, really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 11:03

Dude, did you play that game? I bought that GameCube just for Harvest Moon. It's a wonderful life. That's the only game I ever had. It's still in there. I don't even have a case for it. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:12

That's awesome. GameCube. It's a one-game thing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 11:16

No one wants the GameCube unless it's like a specific game. And after that, we're done with it.

SPEAKER_00 11:20

One controller.

unknown 11:21

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00 11:22

And the version on the GameCube had two discs. Two. Oh what? Yeah. Two or three. I forget, but like I think it's too big. Well, the discs are like this, eh?

SPEAKER_03 11:30

Face top.

SPEAKER_00 11:31

For the game. Like this.

SPEAKER_03 11:32

It's a good graph.

SPEAKER_00 11:34

Oh my god.

unknown 11:36

Jesus.

SPEAKER_00 11:36

Yeah, so Resident Evil 1 remake, 2002, still holds up to this day. Um, and you're basically like uh you start like in a mansion, so like a like a not a haunted mansion, but you know there's zombies there and all that, but there's still the fixed camera angles. So I've never known I don't know if you've ever played games where you have fixed camera angles. Um I don't even know what that means. That's right.

SPEAKER_04 12:01

As you're moving throughout the hallways, then you're going on one camera, then when you get to a certain point, it moves to another camera.

SPEAKER_00 12:06

It doesn't follow you. You like right now, is it kind of like PlayStation One games? Like um, it's like tank controls and all that. That one's like tank controls. It it is difficult sometimes, but that adds to the scare, and that's why they did it for the first time on their original games, and they kept it for the remake. Okay.

SPEAKER_05 12:24

You're talking about the Resident Evil 1, right? Yeah, the remake.

SPEAKER_00 12:27

The remake of 2002, and it's so well made. So still to this day, it's just like it's a classic, it doesn't even need to be remade. Like it holds up. Oh, yeah. They think in 2026, this game holds up. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 12:39

Interesting. From 2002.

SPEAKER_00 12:42

2002. Yeah, 30 years. Okay. The graphics, everything, and a big reason is because of because there's fixed camera angles, because of that, it's pre-rendered backgrounds, so the graphics look better, also. Okay, and so it doesn't, you know, yeah, so that that system, the GameCube, can actually perform and and show uh good quality.

SPEAKER_07 13:02

Freaking geniuses, right?

SPEAKER_00 13:04

It's so well done. Um and again, that game is very difficult. And there's also uh called Crimson Heads, which is when you kill a zombie, okay, you have to go find um like you already have a lighter as uh like an item that you have on your slot on your slots. Well, no, but no, it's not, but you can use it. No, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_01 13:30

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 13:33

No, it's to use for items. So let's say you'll find gasoline cans and stuff like that to burn the zombies.

SPEAKER_03 13:40

Oh, gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 13:41

And there's not enough gas cans, I don't think, for all the zombies. There's zombies in there? Yes. Yes. If you don't burn the zombie, they come back.

SPEAKER_08 13:53

Yield.

SPEAKER_00 13:53

Yield. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 13:55

Just saying. Wait, they come back.

SPEAKER_00 13:57

They come back even stronger.

SPEAKER_03 13:59

Even if you kill them.

SPEAKER_00 14:00

If you kill them and you don't burn their bodies, they come back. And they'll run after you. Okay, wait.

SPEAKER_03 14:04

Hold on. You have to kill them and burn their bodies? Yeah. Every single one of them.

SPEAKER_00 14:08

Yes.

SPEAKER_03 14:08

Yeah, so they're not dead until you burn them. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:11

They're the undead. Yeah, they're the undemies. So they'll come back even stronger. And they're running after you with like fuming red heads and like Well, I'd be pissed too if someone tried to kill me.

SPEAKER_04 14:21

And set me on fire.

SPEAKER_00 14:22

And set me on fire. Yeah. Killing me is one thing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08 14:26

Set him on fire.

SPEAKER_03 14:27

That's just brutal. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:29

But the first time playing the game, I didn't know that. So I'm just walking to an area. I know he's dead and like already because they they had the to load the, you know, there's loading screens and stuff like that. In those games, Resident Evil, the older ones especially, um it the loading screen is like you coming towards a door and the door opens slowly as the loading screen. So the minute the loading is done, you're you're back on the camera view, and you can have a zombie right there next to you.

SPEAKER_03 14:56

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00 14:57

So if the Crimson Head is there, he's running after you and making all these sounds like which side are you going with the tank controls?

SPEAKER_03 15:03

Just let myself die.

SPEAKER_00 15:04

Yeah, that's what makes it hard. Uh, but that game, I I did a I beat it on hard in about five hours, and I did a speed run.

SPEAKER_03 15:14

Not a big deal, guys. No, he's not gloating.

SPEAKER_00 15:17

No, no, I did a speed run, which was like three hours and like 29 minutes or something like that, 25 minutes. And uh only saved, only saved twice.

SPEAKER_02 15:27

Again, not a big deal.

SPEAKER_00 15:31

I was kind of proud of that, but remember that time you played NHL? I did like I bought so many calendars for it to cover the the the the holes in the walls.

SPEAKER_07 15:44

Yeah, if you know you know, yeah, you know, you know, go watch episode. Oh no, that you said that in the NHL episodes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 15:50

Just go scroll down, which is like 20 something, I think, or 2021. Yeah, um, but yeah, I don't know if you guys would play Resident Evil.

SPEAKER_07 15:59

Um, I'm just I I'd have to see what what it looks like with that that camera thing, right? Right, because yeah, um, you know, playing these games now, we're used to having immersive, uh, you know, um third person view where you you feel like you are the player, but for me, like I need to see what you mean by this camera angle. So is it like far away where you see somebody walk?

SPEAKER_00 16:22

It's almost like overhead-ish view, almost over not overhead, but it's like you're you're like a specific angles, but like security cameras, kind of yeah, exactly. Oh interesting.

SPEAKER_04 16:33

And how does the gameplay work? Like, um, when you switch cameras, do you have to switch directions?

SPEAKER_00 16:39

No, so if you stop the joystick, then you have to actually follow the direction of where the camera is and all that. But if you keep going straight and the camera switches and you're going left, don't let go of the straight, it'll keep going straight to that direction.

SPEAKER_04 16:58

There's a delay, but then yeah, as soon as you drop it, you need to send it to adjust complicated.

SPEAKER_00 17:02

I have no idea.

SPEAKER_03 17:03

I'm trying to pick up the side.

SPEAKER_00 17:04

So I'll send it to you after the podcast just to show you, and I'll send it to you. And it's not for everyone, yeah, but I'm glad they kept it like the original. So I'm that's what they did do that.

SPEAKER_07 17:13

Yeah, they didn't try to change a game. Do you think it would be fun if they did a re-remake in 2027 and make it like actually? Where yeah, where they make a real third.

SPEAKER_00 17:22

You know, it's funny you mentioned that. They're actually thinking about it. Like, it's rumors from like people that are are working for Capcom, the company, yeah, and um they're thinking about doing a remake of the first one too.

SPEAKER_07 17:32

Because it was because the story's so good. It's the it's the base, right? It's like that first Harry Potter movie or like the story is really good.

SPEAKER_03 17:39

So I'm thinking camera, I don't know if you've ever played uh Medieval. No, okay, on PlayStation 1. So I'm thinking the camera angles like that, and I tried to replay it um maybe like two, three years ago on PlayStation. So like on PlayStation 4, whatever or but I got super nauseous because it's I'm so we're so used to like controlling the camera angles now to like it controlling by itself kind of thing, where I was like, I can't even I don't know how I did it when I was younger, so it's just I'm I'm wondering if that's the type of camera the camera doesn't move, it's just a character.

SPEAKER_00 18:16

So I don't know if that helps, but yeah. Um and they're zombie dogs, by the way, too.

SPEAKER_08 18:20

Oh no, sorry.

SPEAKER_00 18:22

I hate shooting them, but like I'll play it.

SPEAKER_02 18:26

Do you get to pet them?

SPEAKER_00 18:27

Do you get to kill them? They're zombie dogs.

SPEAKER_02 18:30

Yeah, sorry, no.

SPEAKER_00 18:31

But like The Last of Us, like The Last of Us, I didn't I didn't shoot, I let myself the dog kill me first, and I was like, I can't do it, people. Oh my god. I still can't believe that.

SPEAKER_08 18:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 18:39

I still remember in the video, you shook your head at us like I was like disappointment.

SPEAKER_07 18:43

Like, well, the first time that there was a dog, I let them kill me.

unknown 18:47

What?

SPEAKER_07 18:48

Good thing you run on a speedrun. Oh my god, yeah, no, you don't just run on the first try.

SPEAKER_03 18:55

If I die in the forest, it's because I ps something.

SPEAKER_00 18:58

Like 100%. Okay. But yeah, so that would be the first uh the first one that I would recommend.

SPEAKER_07 19:06

Uh in terms of um, I'll play it when they make a remake, a re-remake. Okay, okay. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 19:10

Yeah, same thing, uh gameplay with the cameras and the angles and the ha ha ha ha. I'll still send it to you guys just before. Yeah, send it.

SPEAKER_03 19:21

The camera's in the hoy hoy. I think I'd only play it if we get the camera angles like we're used to.

SPEAKER_00 19:28

The camera angles doesn't sound too if you play like the originals and all that stuff, you get used to it. But if we're still used to to like the third, you know, the camera behind the shoulders and stuff now, it's hard to go back, right?

SPEAKER_07 19:41

You just gotta feed us with our silver spoon, DJ. Give us real deal shit. All right, none of this 2020 2002 bullshit.

SPEAKER_00 19:52

Well, you'll like the next one then.

SPEAKER_03 19:53

Okay, go.

SPEAKER_00 19:54

The next one is the one that just came out.

SPEAKER_03 19:56

Is it Resident Evil?

SPEAKER_00 19:57

Resident Evil 9. Oh, yes. Resident Evil.

unknown 20:01

Woo!

SPEAKER_00 20:02

I guess what's the story in that one? Same thing in terms of like finding out about the umbrella corporation. I feel like we're crushing too. We're finding out the big spoiler what's going on here. No, it's the same thing in terms of like trying to find out like about umbrella corporation.

SPEAKER_03 20:18

We still didn't find out after nine days.

SPEAKER_00 20:22

You know they're corrupt, you know they're they're the reason why the virus spread everywhere and they're at fault, but you're you have to try and make them uh liable and like in trouble and all that stuff and get you know, get um but you you can't, so it's just like because the game was would end, right? So yeah, they need to make it. You know what I mean? So and they're working on a tank, by the way. Wow.

SPEAKER_04 20:45

Uh how far have they come between the security cameras of the one and the Resident Evil 9?

SPEAKER_00 20:53

So Resident Evil 4 is when they first changed it. Okay. And it was something new.

SPEAKER_04 20:57

So there's three with the cameras, with the yeah, there's three, yeah, with the tank controls, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 21:03

Um so they're gonna so I'll talk about it later. Uh um, but the uh Resident Evil 9, the reason why it's second on my list, it's because they did they took the best of like gameplay-wise of all the Resident Evils, especially four and two, and they just took the best of all of them and put it in one game to please everyone. So there's you play as like Grace, an FBI agent, you play uh first person with her, or it's recommended to play first person, but you can switch third and first with each character, but they they set up the game so that when you play as Grace, you play you should play first person, and when you play as Leon uh Kennedy, um he you you're it's better at third person.

SPEAKER_08 21:49

Interesting.

SPEAKER_00 21:50

Him, it's more focused on action and a kick ass, because he's a veteran, he's been doing this for like 30 years, right? Like it's actually the 30th anniversary.

SPEAKER_03 21:58

He's never died.

SPEAKER_00 21:59

And right, I know. Yeah, yeah. He's he's a guy. So you can't make him not like not good. He can't fight this and that because he's been doing he's a veteran, he's been doing for so long. So that's what he does.

SPEAKER_03 22:10

So all the kick-ass like blood that I sent you, like the videos of like he not not sending real blood by the mirror.

SPEAKER_00 22:17

No, no, no. Just let you guys know.

unknown 22:19

No, no.

SPEAKER_00 22:20

Real authentic. Allegedly. Allegedly. HR is gonna be on our right. Do you plead the fifth? Yes, always. Um, and when you play as Grace, it's the uh survival horror aspect of first person hide and seek a little bit.

SPEAKER_07 22:37

She's first person, and the guy's third person. Yes, it's recommended. Yeah, I do the opposite. Now in games, especially if you're playing with a girl, like you want to have her see her butt when she's walking. And the guy, you're just you want to see his guns. His guns, his actual guns. I know how you think.

SPEAKER_00 22:57

Crazy woman. Okay. Uh yeah, uh, and uh uh Grace, really cool uh survival aspect, survival horror, and it's really um well done. Like that one scared me too. Not as much as Outlast, okay, but the first playthrough. It's just it's so well made, well made. And she also, it's so cool that they even thought of this. When she's given a gun by Leon at the beginning, because when you have it to start her story, she's never held a gun before. She's just like this because she's like a receptionist and an FBI agent, I think something like that.

SPEAKER_01 23:29

She's never like played with nerves or with what nerve guns.

SPEAKER_00 23:34

Well, I guess. So the first time you shoot a gun, she shakes.

SPEAKER_03 23:41

Yeah, seriously.

SPEAKER_00 23:42

She shakes, she shakes the first time she used a gun. She's gonna show you. She shakes like, oh my god. But halfway in the game, she gets used to it. And they actually made it so that like progressive, progressive during the game, those little dudes. Yeah, so the swaying and stuff like that, and then even when she runs. And I've Oh, hold on, hold on. Well, that's normal.

SPEAKER_03 24:07

Does she run in heels?

SPEAKER_00 24:08

No, no, no. No, not the classic uh. Yeah, yeah. Like Jurassic, one of the Jurassic Park movies, you know, like running away from TR stuff. You're running way too fast in heels.

SPEAKER_03 24:18

There's no way any girl would be comfortable in heels.

SPEAKER_07 24:21

Some girls are actually really good.

SPEAKER_03 24:23

Yeah, yeah, I know. But in a zombie apocalypse, come on. You want to be comfortable.

SPEAKER_08 24:31

Yep, yeah, and they'll hear you. They'll hear you.

SPEAKER_02 24:38

There's no way you can be quiet. First one dead. I know. First one dead. Like I'd shoot her myself.

SPEAKER_00 24:47

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 24:48

Fair. Yeah, fair. Yeah, so no, she's not.

SPEAKER_00 24:51

And when she runs, she stumbles, all that stuff. When she runs, you don't lose a speed, but it it makes it like look realistic. Okay. So worse than feels. Yeah. She's been drinking a little bit. Yeah, no, it's it's so well made. And uh, and actually, it wouldn't surprise me if she actually wins an award for her acting.

SPEAKER_09 25:10

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 25:11

Like the voice of her being scared and everything.

SPEAKER_09 25:14

Interesting.

SPEAKER_00 25:14

All the comments I see, it's it's about her acting. And I guarantee you she's gonna win one of the awards.

SPEAKER_01 25:20

Good.

SPEAKER_00 25:20

I can almost bet money on it. Like she will.

SPEAKER_01 25:22

Almost.

SPEAKER_00 25:23

Yeah, almost because I'm just in case. Very, very, very recent game. So, like yeah, 2026. Uh well, actually, it came out like a month, a month, two months ago. Oh, you've already played it? Yeah, I already beat it.

SPEAKER_03 25:34

Yeah, is that really a question?

SPEAKER_07 25:36

Come on now.

SPEAKER_03 25:37

Do you know who you're talking to?

SPEAKER_07 25:38

Oh my god, no, no, no, no, no. I like how this went. So you already played it? No, no. I've already beat it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08 25:45

Exactly. I've already beat it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 25:48

It's about uh 10 to 15 hours for the first play for the game. Promise me something. Never change. No, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, so that one uh I definitely recommend for uh second one. Because it put all of them amalgamated together.

SPEAKER_07 26:05

So if if I were to say, okay, I'm gonna give it a shot at Resident Evil games. Um would it would it make a difference playing the number nine first? Like like in the story, would would it make a difference playing that first and then you really like no, you should if you're gonna like really play this other one? Maybe it's the first one.

SPEAKER_00 26:24

If you really care about the story, but it's not you can play the ninth one and you're still gonna have a blast, and you're still not gonna find out too much about the umbrella corporation and all that. You're gonna find out little things in here that are corrupt, okay. Uh, you know, and it's also like like you hear this every time, like people not trusting big big farm companies, this and that. And this game, you know, it's about that too. So it makes it a little bit more relatable and realistic for you know a story.

SPEAKER_04 26:52

Um and yeah, I feel you'd have to grow with the graphics. Like, I mean, you'd have to start with the the oldest one. No, exactly. That's true. Because then you're like, Well, what is this?

SPEAKER_07 27:03

But but then again, uh once I was fooled by this. Oh yeah, I was fooled by this because uh Harvest Moon. Oh Harvest Moon games, uh, you know, playing Harvest Moon 64 or A Wonderful Life on the GameCube, and then hearing about Stardew Valley, for me, it was like I can't play Stardew Valley, the 2D pixel art thing, like that's not that's not up to par with with visually what I what I've been playing all that.

SPEAKER_04 27:32

But it is very arcadey, like it's it's not a game like Resident Evil where there's a lot of focus being put on graphic.

SPEAKER_07 27:38

But where where I'm going with this is that I was surprised at how even going back, even though okay, um uh Stardew Valley is made more recent, was made more recently than these games, the visual aspect is from uh an earlier time. Uh so that's why I wouldn't want to play it, but I got surprised by when I finally did play it, I realized okay, it didn't matter. So that's why I'm thinking, would it matter in Resident Evil? Oh well, should I be a little more open-minded for Resident Evil to play something and then go back and it would still be good?

SPEAKER_00 28:14

It would still be good.

SPEAKER_07 28:15

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:16

Are you buying nine? The cameras. Well, obviously, like I love the game, so I'm biased in that aspect. But I I know that if you play the ninth one, okay, you're gonna want to play the next on my list, the number one, afterwards, even though it's before.

SPEAKER_03 28:32

Okay.

SPEAKER_05 28:33

No, no, Resident Evil 1's number three.

SPEAKER_00 28:35

Yeah, but there's like if you play nine, you play nine?

SPEAKER_02 28:39

Four.

SPEAKER_07 28:39

Yeah, you'll see when I say one to eight. One to three, but it's three but one. It's number one, but it's number three, but you should play number Okay, wait. Which one is it?

SPEAKER_00 28:49

So if you play the ninth one, you can play any of the previous games and you're still gonna enjoy it. Except the sixth one, that's the worst one in the series. Don't play it, garbage bin. Really? Yeah, yeah. That's important. Yeah, it's gonna be garbage.

SPEAKER_07 29:03

We say the word fuck every two seconds here, and you're like darn, and I'm like, oh horseshit. Count sarnets.

SPEAKER_00 29:17

You should never play absolutely, unequivocally, not play Resident Evil 6. Oh why number six? Because it's complete garbage. Oh, so the story tell us how you really feel the story is all over the place, the pacing is bad, it's it's the action is too like the action is not even well made. You're playing it and you're like, it's a struggle to even finish. I finished it and I was just like, I I it was like felt like a waste of time, and I felt so disappointed. And this is why like Resident Evil 7 basically saved the series. If that failed, who knows where Resident Evil would be by by now? Interesting. But Resident Evil 7 saved uh the series, in my opinion, but and a lot of people, but um, yeah, Resident Evil 6 is one that like you don't play. If you played that as a first game, you're probably not gonna like any other games, or you might judge all they're probably all the same, but it's like no, no, no. This one is the one that's like the odd one out.

SPEAKER_07 30:13

So I wonder and don't don't say it, but I wonder if uh Resident Evil 7 is the number one game, or if it's an honorable mention, because it's gotta be something because it saved the series, it has that suspense down. So before you move on, I want to ask these fellas um what they think the maybe it's just a wild guess at this point, or maybe it's number seven. What do you think the number one game is that he's gonna recommend?

SPEAKER_03 30:38

I have a feeling I know which one it is, but just don't know number, it's with Miss M Madame Medouche. Dimitres, you think Lady Dimitres? Yeah, which is seven or eight. Eight. I think it's gonna be that one.

SPEAKER_04 30:49

Okay. So it's clearly not nine and one.

SPEAKER_08 30:54

And it's clearly not.

SPEAKER_04 30:56

I don't think it would be two and three with the video cameras. Um you said seven? No, no, I didn't say eight. I didn't say my answer yet. Okay. He wants to go based off ours. Yeah. Nothing's been mentioned about five. You mentioned that four was this turning point.

SPEAKER_03 31:16

True.

SPEAKER_07 31:17

So it's either four or seven. PL's good. By the way, before you give your answer, PL's super good with it with this stuff. Like, in a player profile episode, which we'll do yours pretty soon, you'll see he like mind fucks you. Which like he doesn't even use a condom, the little shit. He just fucking goes in there. And you're pregnant. You're like, what? No, that's power. No, no, but but like like he's really smart at uh like okay, like he remembered everything that was said. He's awesome. Which one are you gonna go for? Four or seven? Or I'll say it because I think I know because he You read his cheat sheet, that's why. No, I ha I haven't, but in the past, like I said, I have asked him what I should be playing if I were to play one, and I think I remember what I saw. So I I'll say it like at the end what I think I saw, but I I just don't want it to feel like it comes from me thinking I'm smart. It's because he doesn't know. So what do you think?

SPEAKER_03 32:14

He just told you.

SPEAKER_07 32:15

I don't remember.

SPEAKER_00 32:16

So you said you answered seven, eh? You said four or seven. Oh, four or seven. So which one?

SPEAKER_04 32:20

Okay, because four is the when it turned around. So sometimes it can be like uh I don't know, like a huge stepping stone in the right direction for that series.

SPEAKER_00 32:28

And then seven as the yeah, since it saved it, but and then you said eight with Lady uh Dimitris. Yes, cool antagonist, by the way. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 32:37

I watched Mark Aplier play that one and I sorry, I loved it.

SPEAKER_07 32:41

It's awesome. Can you have this guy in the podcast?

SPEAKER_03 32:45

I wish. Where is he? Like would he would he fly all the way over here? No, he did put a movie out though recently. And he shirtless in it.

SPEAKER_07 32:51

So he's too big for this podcast.

SPEAKER_03 32:53

Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, he made his own movie. A YouTuber made his own movie. Yeah. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 32:58

I don't think anybody's too big for this podcast, but whatever she's thinking is.

SPEAKER_03 33:02

No, I Iron Lung.

SPEAKER_00 33:03

Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_03 33:05

Anyways, back to you.

SPEAKER_00 33:07

So, what about you?

SPEAKER_07 33:10

No, you didn't say your answer.

SPEAKER_00 33:11

Oh, you're gonna wait actually to the same.

SPEAKER_07 33:13

No, no, wait, no, no, wait. I will say it. Four or seven? You have to pick one that you're having to say.

SPEAKER_00 33:20

Seven. Okay, I'll say I think four. Okay. Okay, so four, eight, and seven. Yeah, yeah. Okay. It's four.

SPEAKER_08 33:28

Wow, okay. But no memory.

SPEAKER_07 33:30

I think I had remembers something clicked about the four.

SPEAKER_00 33:33

Yeah. Interesting. So Resident Evil Four, it's unanimous, almost like for everyone, that that's the game because of the turning point.

SPEAKER_03 33:42

Um, also you were so close.

SPEAKER_00 33:44

Because it was a risk. People didn't a lot of people complain at first. You can't change the games, especially fans, right? They get really intense. It's like you can't change the series, you know. Like it's nice. Yeah, yeah. And then it's like it was so well made. Yeah. Uh the over-the-shoulder camera. Um, and there's also the oh yeah, um, there's um the VR2. So that I played with VR2.

SPEAKER_03 34:09

On four?

SPEAKER_00 34:11

For the four, okay. So the fourth one came out in 2005, also on the GameCube and other uh systems too, but the remake, specifically, yes, just specifically the remake, which came out in 2023, and um that game, yeah, they had the VR also with it. So that's amazing.

SPEAKER_02 34:32

I just watched you guys notes. Yeah, all this time we could have looked at his notes and just.

SPEAKER_04 34:42

I don't even know where to start.

SPEAKER_00 34:43

Yeah, so the VR, there's still a VR with a Resident Evil 7 and 8. Um, and I beat those with a VR too. But the Resident Evil 4 is if you're gonna play one game, it has to be that game. Okay, and like the one the first one's still amazing, but the remake is so much better. And when you play with a VR, okay, you can have your gun, throw it in the air, it's gonna throw the gun, and you can actually catch it back with your hand. I can imagine how many times you did that.

SPEAKER_04 35:10

Oh, I think I remember seeing a video of that.

SPEAKER_00 35:12

That's insane. But the thing that sucks is like once I did that, like one of the first times, I dropped it.

SPEAKER_03 35:15

I'm like, oh I pick it up, and I look up and that guy was probably like the loser. Dropped his gun.

SPEAKER_06 35:24

What the fuck is he doing?

SPEAKER_02 35:27

He's like, my god, you want to find a way? Shit.

SPEAKER_00 35:31

He's breaking his feet. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 35:36

Um shoots himself with the knee. Oh my god. That would be awful.

SPEAKER_00 35:41

That would be awful. Uh no, it it's it's the best game. I like the replayability. I think I beat it like so many times just because it's so free.

SPEAKER_03 35:50

How many times? Just tell us.

SPEAKER_00 35:51

Oh, probably like 10, 12 times, probably. Oh, wow. Um that's the remake that came out in 2017.

SPEAKER_07 35:57

That's a lot of times to play the same game. Like, yeah. Okay. Okay. Really focus? Focus. You've got 10 seconds.

SPEAKER_00 36:05

Sell this game, go. Oh my god, I it's the best game in the series. Literally, it's the best game of the series. Like, if the world was ending tomorrow and you had one thing you wanted to do, you play this game. Which one? Resident Evil 4 remake.

SPEAKER_07 36:22

If this doesn't convince you, I don't know what will.

SPEAKER_02 36:25

Nothing. Nothing. End of the world. End of the world, and you just died doing what? Not playing Resident Evil 4.

SPEAKER_07 36:33

That wink, eh? Yeah. Well, because my son is right there saying hi.

SPEAKER_03 36:40

I thought you were flirting with the camera there for a second. Yeah, I know. I forgot.

SPEAKER_04 36:43

Winking to himself. Get more, get more lights.

SPEAKER_06 36:47

Winking to Dr. Games. Hey, buddy.

SPEAKER_00 36:52

And Resident Evil 4, I was I was having a blast because at one point uh I was able to have like infinity rocket launchers. I was just playing for fun. Yeah. Uh, and also did speedruns on that one. Um, I played on uh it was uh hardcore and professional, and both three hours and like 30 minutes each. So that was fun. But how incredible only three hours?

SPEAKER_07 37:19

Well, you know what? I have to say something, it's refreshing with having all these amateurs on this podcast and just regular folks there, like I like you and all, guys.

SPEAKER_00 37:29

But having a pro over here is pretty awesome. Thank you. But no, it's the the replayability do have value.

SPEAKER_03 37:37

I'm a comedian.

SPEAKER_00 37:38

You bring the beer.

unknown 37:40

See?

SPEAKER_00 37:40

You do bring the beer.

SPEAKER_07 37:42

You do bring the beer.

SPEAKER_00 37:43

But yeah, the replayability, like you a lot of the reason Resident Evil games, you can play once a comedian.

SPEAKER_06 37:47

Sorry. When you self-proclaim yourself as a comedian, you might not be a comedian.

SPEAKER_03 37:55

I try. Imagine if I went to therapy, wouldn't it be funny? Well, that's right. Just saying.

SPEAKER_00 38:01

It's like calling yourself yourself Great Britain. Don't you have to wait till other people call you Great? Don't call yourself Great Britain. Don't call yourself Great Britain. No, no, no.

SPEAKER_06 38:13

Yeah. Makes sense, right?

SPEAKER_00 38:14

Yeah. Um, how amazing that is Capcom, the company, to do like, I think it was like how many games? Six? They did like six games in Resident Evil. Yes, in nine question mark? But six in in like nine years. That's wild. Three mainline titles.

SPEAKER_03 38:29

And we're still waiting for GTA.

SPEAKER_00 38:32

Wow, guys.

SPEAKER_03 38:33

Getting your shit together.

SPEAKER_00 38:35

Good burn. That's good. And like three remakes and three mainline titles in nine years. Crazy. And they've all sold like Resident Evil 9 right now, it's the fastest selling Resident Evil. I think it's sold like right now, they're at like what six million in like three weeks or four weeks or whatever it is.

SPEAKER_07 38:51

Okay, so so let me ask you this because you've played them all, right? Yeah. Um, often if games are made too closely together, like I don't know, the Assassin's Creed. Yeah. Okay. Well, at some point it's just like important attention is not put into certain aspects of the game. Is this something that you've that you've seen within these games, even if you did like them?

SPEAKER_00 39:14

Right.

SPEAKER_07 39:14

So is it a short period of time to pull out?

SPEAKER_00 39:19

So Resident Evil 2 remake and 3 came out like a year apart, I think. So you can tell that three felt rush. It's really like really fast. Like that one I did a speed run like in an hour and like eight minutes or whatever it is, right? Like it was really fast.

SPEAKER_02 39:33

You know what it is. Yeah.

unknown 39:36

Right?

SPEAKER_00 39:37

But like you can tell that it felt rushed. Yeah. But like Resident Evil 9, they were working on I think four and another game, and while they were working on nine as well at the same time. So they're all like, I don't know, like how big is the team? I don't know. But it's insane how much work is put into it. Really well done. And yeah, so I I like you can tell for Resident Evil 3 remake, I'd still play it, but it uh it's it wouldn't be the one I recommend more.

SPEAKER_05 40:09

Okay. Interesting. Okay. That was a good question.

SPEAKER_00 40:13

Ah, now I want to play Resident Evil 4.

SPEAKER_07 40:15

Yes, the remake too. Yeah, so good.

SPEAKER_04 40:19

And then the nine when it comes to the special.

SPEAKER_07 40:21

Yeah, special. Yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. So I think I think we did it after the the he mentioned Resident Evil 1, right? We said whether we'd play it or not. I think we said no, right? No. Collectively we're not. Then the next uh second game you said was Resident Evil 9. Yeah. We didn't say an answer here, I think. So would you play Resident Evil 9?

SPEAKER_04 40:43

I think that would be the one that I would maybe play the most. Uh I understand like Resident Evil 4 might be like a the game changer of the series and all that. Um, but with my very limited gaming time, I would focus on something more recent with up-to-date graphics and all that. So yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:01

And well, the the Resident Evil 4 remake is updated graphics, but not the original from 2005. But I do agree, like if you play the ninth one, do you do you like the dual? Like one is first person, the other is third person. Do you like that uh aspect? Yeah, yeah, I don't mind it. Yeah, you have to switch between the game. Well, it switches for you, so when you the story is like they're both stories and then they they uh they mesh together.

SPEAKER_07 41:25

It's like GTA, yeah. Okay, that's specifically why I stopped playing GTA 5. Interesting. It's because yeah, I I uh call me old school, all right. But I like when I have a character and I get to evolve with one character. So I'm not I'm not uh a three-character guy within a game because I'm playing one game, right? So I want to, but when I started, I'm like, okay, cool. And then it switched, I'm like, well, I did all this progress with the other guy. That's true. Like, what the hell is what I'm not I didn't know, I don't want to play a second game. So there's and then it changed again. I'm like, okay, no, enough, and and I and I stopped. So I'm thinking, well, would that be different? Especially with two different gameplays. Like, if I'm starting investing in something, I just want to continue, make another game with the other guy.

SPEAKER_00 42:08

So for you, Resident Evil 4 remake would be the one Resident Evil 9 Day switch. Okay, and if you don't like the characters thing, Resident Evil 6, there's like five, six switching characters, then the story, the pacing's bad. That's why it's bad. Okay, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 42:21

I was gonna say earlier when you said for the six, I'm like, well, you hated it so much.

SPEAKER_00 42:27

I'm gonna play, I don't want to all play it full price. Well, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 42:31

Well, no, if it comes for a buck, just to just to see how horrible it is would be worth the buck.

SPEAKER_00 42:37

Dude, dude. I think so.

SPEAKER_04 42:38

You gotta go out hunting, shoot it, bring it back, and then like trade it in for a game. Yes. I mean, yeah. That's fair. It's a tough task. Yeah. Um would you the ninth?

SPEAKER_03 42:49

Yeah. Is that what we're talking about? Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 42:50

Or which one?

SPEAKER_03 42:52

I don't know. I know my daughter, we're getting it for her birthday because she wants to play. She's played all the Resident Evil as well. Um I'd probably start out watching her play, honestly, and then see how I like. You said there's like the switches too, and I'm like you, I kind of like progressing with that one character. Because you like put so much into them, and then you go on to someone else, you're like, God damn it. Yeah. So yeah, to relearn mechanics. I can see why I could throw something down for sure. Yeah, unless you're pro. Yeah. Whatever. So I think I'd watch her play first and then maybe go based off the gameplay. Yeah, that's good.

SPEAKER_05 43:28

Yeah, yeah. Um honorable mentions.

SPEAKER_07 43:31

Yeah, yeah. Well, first, nine, nine for sure, no, like we've established that, but I am really curious about the four. Like, right. I'll find a good gameplay pitch. And you will play. Like you'll be like, fuck yeah. Yeah, well, if after this I go on Steam or on PlayStation, uh, you know, and and it's on a really good special, like under um four, yeah, I'd I'd play it, I'd buy it for under four ninety nine. Ten bucks. Yeah. Under ten bucks on play. For sure. 20, I'll wait. I'll wait till like under 10 bucks, I'm buying it, and then I'll figure out when I play it. Uh 20, uh, well, I'll wait. I'll I would buy it for 20, but I'd wait till I'm in more in that mood and I want to buy it. Because you never know until then if it can go along.

SPEAKER_00 44:17

Keep it on your wish list and then when it pops and it's a good one. But yeah, you know what?

SPEAKER_07 44:20

I think I want to do it, and you know what? Could be fun. And is if it ends up happening, it'd be fun if it all falls in line so that we can do an episode on Resident Evil 4. Because I think that if you're saying it's a community like agreed thing that four is number one, well, what if the four would be uh an episode we do that we release in Halloween? Oh in October, right? Yeah. So I'm just I'm just thinking out loud here. So if that were to happen, that would be pretty good. Yeah, I agree. Yeah. Yeah, but so far in all the games you've mentioned, uh, this game is what intrigues me the most. Especially in the fact that I always wondered what the hell's up with Resident Evil 2. To me, it's just well, you start the game and you start to shoot zombies, and then you need to get there, and you shoot more zombies, and then you need to get there and you can get it. And puzzles. Yeah. No, I didn't think about puzzles. I just thought you needed to kill zombies. But the fact that you explained at the beginning of this episode the um how uh the umbrella farm corp, yeah, uh, you know, and and that you're trying to to find out about corruption. Well, there's more to it than just the zombies. Kind of like uh The Last of Us. The Last of Us was not a zombie game, it was a something else game, but with zombies in it. Clickers. This I think is a zombie game. Yeah, yeah. But still, there's still a story to it where it could be interesting. So I think that's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00 45:42

And there are there are there is puzzles too, like in terms of like you find items and you put them together to open a door or you find specific keys, stuff like that. There's a medallion that looks like half a heart. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 45:53

I wonder what this does later. Yeah, it's a friendship break. Oh, my God.

SPEAKER_04 46:00

Yo, but um I have uh a question uh for you actually. Yeah. Um what is the next Resident Evil game that you're gonna replay?

SPEAKER_03 46:11

You need to stop being so angry.

SPEAKER_00 46:13

Uh I'm actually gonna try and uh speed run Resident Evil 9 next time when I get the chance. I'll try and speedrun it. So you've only done just a regular. Yeah, I beat Resident Evil 9 and I just took a break uh from playing uh a little bit, but it'll be a speedrun for sure. Okay until Resident Evil 10 comes out. Or another remake waiting for UCapcom have a get on it. Six games in nine years, you slackers. Nice, nice. But the honorable mentions?

SPEAKER_03 46:46

Yes.

SPEAKER_07 46:46

Honorable mention.

SPEAKER_00 46:50

It's crazy.

SPEAKER_07 46:51

I like how we all had a uh a sound effect there. Okay, synchronized. We need to we yeah, because okay. There's only two buttons for actual sound effects, so we need to play a role here. We do. We do it well. What kind of sound effects do you want to do? You're in charge of what sound effect.

SPEAKER_03 47:07

I don't know. I do all sorts of them. I don't even know what to do.

SPEAKER_07 47:09

Yeah, but you need an identity. What's yours? You can do others, but what's your main yield? I don't know how yield. If you know you know. If you know you know, that's all you gotta say. Yeah, what would be yours?

unknown 47:22

Par.

SPEAKER_01 47:25

I don't know, you put me on the other hand.

SPEAKER_02 47:27

Sounds like a dying beer. A dying ride.

SPEAKER_04 47:32

I got nervous, okay? I got nervous and hit puberty at the same time.

SPEAKER_06 47:39

It came up more high pitched than you wanted to. Never know.

SPEAKER_07 47:47

So PL, what about this game?

SPEAKER_04 47:51

Okay, okay, hold on. I got I got another one. Okay. Bam! Oh, nice. I like that one.

SPEAKER_07 47:58

I have nothing. He just pressed it. I know I know what your sound effect is. Yeah. I was top ten in the world for three years only three years in a row at NHL. All right. Yeah, that's right.

SPEAKER_03 48:14

I only did a speed run that was an hour and eight minutes long, but something like that. Whatever. Didn't count it, but he did.

SPEAKER_05 48:22

Yeah, whatever.

SPEAKER_00 48:22

Well, all right. Honorable mentions. It's crazy because I love Resident Evil so much. Yeah, we're gonna do that. There's three, but I'll be quick with uh the three. One of them you're obviously gonna like. It's Resident Evil 8 with Lamid Lady Dimitres. Um the Gothic Castle and everything. Plus, there's a VR option with that as well. Is that the one you played on VR?

SPEAKER_03 48:43

Uh seven. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 48:45

Um that one, I just had a blast with that one, and I think you know, if I made a top six list, there you go, it would be on it. Um I don't think there exists in the world a top six.

SPEAKER_07 48:57

There's nine percent. My top nine games are my top five point seven games are in order. Dude, maybe that's how we you know distinguish ourselves from the others, yeah. Yeah, right, is by doing top like and with an odd number.

SPEAKER_00 49:17

Think outside the box, people. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_02 49:19

I like it. Put that on a t-shirt.

SPEAKER_00 49:21

Yeah, there you go.

SPEAKER_02 49:22

Top 5.7. Let's go.

SPEAKER_00 49:25

If you know, you know. The other one, Resident Evil 7, because obviously, save the series. You know, like you can't forget that one. That's also on the VR. Um, and that is very scary as well. Um, especially like the antagonist and stuff like that. Very like in your face kind of thing, right? Um and then the other one is that was hard to not put on the list, actually.

SPEAKER_03 49:49

Interesting.

SPEAKER_00 49:49

It's Resident Evil 2 remake.

SPEAKER_03 49:52

I was asked to play that one.

SPEAKER_00 49:54

Right? By whom?

SPEAKER_03 49:55

A friend of mine, he messaged me and he said, Have you played Resident Evil 2? And I said, No, he's like, Can you please play play it so we can talk about it? But now that you're talking about the camera angles, I'm not sure. That one's different.

SPEAKER_00 50:06

The original is the tank controls, yeah, but the remake is over the shoulders.

SPEAKER_03 50:10

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 50:11

But you do song, they change it. That changes everything, PJ.

SPEAKER_03 50:14

Yes, why didn't you say that at the beginning? Oh my god.

SPEAKER_07 50:20

This is for you.

SPEAKER_00 50:21

Oh yeah. I'll see myself.

SPEAKER_08 50:23

Bye, doors that way. Bye, Felicia.

SPEAKER_00 50:27

Um, yeah, so that one you would love. Yeah. Uh however, there you do switch between two uh two characters, um, but it it's it's really fun. Like it's not, it doesn't throw you off like a first person, third person. Both are third person, the controls are the same and everything.

SPEAKER_01 50:41

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 50:42

Um and that game didn't make the cut only because Resident Evil 9 puts the two best Resident Evil 4 and 2 in one. So I gave the nod to nine for that. Gotcha. Um so they could put it in four. You know, you had the Grace and uh whatever in nine, whoever so in four it's uh Leon again. Leon, yeah, the same guy.

SPEAKER_07 51:05

Good. I didn't want to have a shaking gun. Only at the beginning.

SPEAKER_00 51:08

She gets better. Yeah, I don't know, it would bug me. Yeah, so that would be the third one honorable mention.

SPEAKER_08 51:15

Fuck this shit.

SPEAKER_04 51:16

If there's a shaking gun in the ninth one, imagine the fourth.

SPEAKER_08 51:22

That's only when he drove up the car. Yeah, yeah. Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_04 51:29

Russian roulette, but you don't have a gun, but oh, it's so cool. But how cool is that though, right? You should have a lot of things.

SPEAKER_02 51:36

I don't know if it's that cool because you dropped it. You didn't catch it, it wasn't that cool.

SPEAKER_07 51:41

It reminds me, and at some point I want to do a VR episode. Yeah, right. For those who have played VR. Yeah. And and the game Super Hot, which one of my favorite VR games, which is really fun because uh the game advances only if you move. Right? So there was one of the levels that for some reason I like to do on repeat because it starts where you have one gun. So you're just there and you see the scene and you see a few people there. Nobody's moving because if you're not moving, nobody's moving. But there's a gun right there in the air. As soon as you grab the gun, it starts. But yeah, it's just floating. So you grab the gun. So you grab the gun. So while you grab the gun, the scene moves and they do their thing, but as soon as you stop it, it all stops. So you can kind of get to slowly, okay, I'll grab the gun and I'll shoot this guy. So when you shoot that first guy, his gun pops in the air and you can grab it, right? So with a few times doing it, it got super fun because I would boom, boom, cross hands.

SPEAKER_08 52:51

There was two other guys, boom, wow, believe me, it feels gone if you do this.

SPEAKER_07 52:59

All right. No, I won't play. Yeah, so it kind of reminds me of uh that like there was a fun thing where you can actually like grab things, throw them, and you'd have to like there was a bottle, and it's like every character was made of glass. They're like all red, it's all white and red. It's like target practice.

SPEAKER_03 53:15

Yeah, yeah. I would like to see what you look like in the living room just doing that, just thinking like you're all so cool, and then you just see yourself throwing stuff up in the air and like blowing on nothing.

SPEAKER_07 53:26

No, no, you don't blow on nothing, you blow on your bug at one.

SPEAKER_08 53:28

Yeah, style, instile.

SPEAKER_07 53:31

It doesn't matter what it looks, it doesn't matter what it looks like from the outside, it's what it feels like. Okay, that is what matters, right? Because usually you do VR and nobody's watching. But even if so, in it's it feels so cool that you think that whatever people are watching is sees is cool. Whether it's it is or it isn't, you think it doesn't matter, but that's pretty cool. So when you boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, like oh, it's just you've done this a lot. You have all the time. I repeated this okay. Yeah, I repeated this so many times, and now I do it like in full speed.

SPEAKER_02 54:08

Like, oh I'm God.

SPEAKER_07 54:11

No. You forgot to blow your guns.

SPEAKER_02 54:14

No, I don't believe you.

SPEAKER_03 54:16

But for the podcast, do you think we should all have a VR here instead of just all you see? Don't even know what we're doing. We're in the US.

SPEAKER_04 54:30

Your eyes are open in there. Yeah, what's good? I got a mask.

SPEAKER_02 54:35

He's pretending, he's using his imagination.

SPEAKER_07 54:38

Buddy, I want to thank you for preparing all uh all these all these for us. Um, I really appreciate it. I thought that was pretty fun. It's the first times uh tonight that we we did these kinds of episodes with with the horror one that will probably be broadcasted uh weeks or months before this Resident Evil one, but still really fun type of segment. And I think uh it's something that I'd like to do again uh with you specifically, but it's something that can be done with anyone, right? If you've played specific a specific type or niche games uh a lot that you liked and you want to come on here and do the same type of thing, we'd have to change the title because this really really goes well because it rhymes. I love Platinum J Man. Games to play with Platinum J.

SPEAKER_03 55:24

I don't think anyone's getting another one. Put it on a t-shirt.

SPEAKER_07 55:28

But we can find an a rhyming title for anybody. Like that's that's that's the fun part. Fun part is not the podcast, it's finding the titles. Yeah. Right? Not the podcast. Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_01 55:38

Ew.

SPEAKER_07 55:39

Ew. When the hell is this, even, right? Uh so, anyways, uh mostly, mostly MT.

SPEAKER_06 55:45

Mostly. Mostly just careful, you're a bit teenage years again. Mixed with this guy's uh sounder that he didn't. Alright. Hey.

SPEAKER_06 55:58

Thank you. Thank you.

SPEAKER_00 55:59

SPEAKER_07 56:20
