GTA 6 Won’t Have a Physical Edition?! - Kinda Funny Games Daily 01.27.26

33:19I like that. I'm fine with that. Speaking of Xbox number three, Fable developer Playground crafted each of its 1 ,000 fully voiced NPCs by hand. This is Simon Carty at IGN. Fable, the upcoming open world fantasy RPG from Playground Games, has 1 ,000 fully voiced NPCs and if you do things right you can marry every single one of them. The long awaited fairy tale follow up to Lionhead's original Xbox trilogy was showcased at the January 2026 Xbox Developer Direct and finally gave us a good look at its gameplay. But there's more to learn yet as IGN spoke to the founder of Playground Games the studio crafting the reboot.

33:59When speaking about the characters that inhabit the world of this new version of Fable, Playground Chief Ralph Fulton told us quote They are handcrafted and there are a lot of things about the way we have built the living population, which I think you could be forgiven for saying is just nuts. I think maybe once thought we could procedurally generate them, but we abandoned that idea quite a long time ago because we wanted to craft every one of these NPCs from their name to their appearance to their personality traits to that normal worldview. I'm sorry, moral worldview that I talked about to where they work and where they live and what their family unit is because it's important to the player that they can get to know the unique crafted NPCs.

34:42there's 1000 of them in the game Fulton continued you can go and speak to every single one of them in fully voiced conversations you could marry it'll be a bit of work but you could marry them all you could have kids with them you can hire them you can fire them they are just great fun and also they act as this sort of Greek chorus if you like it is a Greek chorus if you like reflecting your choices and your morality back at you so as you walk around that's classic fable isn't it people cat calling you the streets telling you what they think of you it's a brilliant thing in our in our game as well but it's a great way of tracking how popular your decisions have been your choices have been it doesn't sound like it'll be easy to just pop the question to anyone you see wandering around albion then with the way you've chosen to role play as you go your heroes dictates who may react positively to an offer of engagement what if you're playing as a goody two-shoes knight of the realm but then a local necromancer catches your eye and captures your heart shortly thereafter will you be tempted to delve into the dark arts in the name of love search deep within yourself only you have the answer game of the fucking year if they nail this game of the fucking year i will lose my goddamn mind they're saying all the right things if you listen to that if you read that you probably immediately smiled because it sounds awesome and amazing.

36:07As you like to say, that is nuts. What do you mean you just didn't? Ralph, you nailed it. That's nuts. Why are we handcrafting all these? That's epic. Okay, let's do it. We'll be very excited to see it live and in person. Yeah. Playing it right to see all the characters, them being their own unique selves. It'll be fun to see how cool that is, how different they are, and what really I can get into, what kind of shenanigans. They are promising a lot, and they're saying a lot, and I'm excited to see it in action. I mean, I think there's a chance we talk about this a little bit in the Gamescast today when we talk about our new Witcher game, but like, what the fuck?

36:43It's going to rip my heart out of my chest when this gets delayed. When this is inevitably delayed till 2027, I'm going to fucking cry, but I can't, I mean, what they've shown and what they're saying, they're saying all the right things. If we can have this thing, Mike, where it's going to be like we coming together on the review or the spoiler cast or whatever, and it's just like, oh there's a shop girl that my character fell in love with and like we did this whole and we just had a life and you you're like i didn't do anything and then this happened over here i lived over there and i did the getting ready for that it's it has the building blocks for that that's i'm gonna try to marry every single person in this game i like that's a that's a stream i want to break this game i want to see what kind of level of is roger's not here right what level of interest from the kind of funny community do we need to get to let me do a marathon stream of this to just give me fucking fable send jen and ben somewhere and just let me play this as long as the audience to play because i want to let this fucking shit rip why is cole back there cole let that dog live that dog's living come here what are you doing come here we got a dog just staring back at me no he's not he's he's sniffing around the kegerator come here what are you doing buddy dog is sassy buddy he's coming he's a good dog he's a good dog he's he's he's becoming a good studio dog you know what i mean this was a big studio this was a big building thing of like all right cool we got to get him ready and not scared of the studio anymore and today was the first day where there is no bag here no bag he doesn't have to be locked up his bed's here when you get your bed come on he's a good guard dog and he gets in his bed folks yeah that's a good studio dog that's what we're looking for out here.

38:23Pets in this game? Oh, he's going. I think McCaffrey said no dog. Yeah, that's right. No dog. Yeah, I was going to say, I of course follow the subreddit for Fable, which of course is the bad idea because all it is is people mad. I'm like, how can you be mad? Well, we don't get horns. I'm like, who fucking cares? I do want a horn, though. I really want a horn, though. I'm sure you put it on your character. I am uptight that I don't get a horn. That was always the exciting part with seeing yourself become more and more evil. Morality, though. Well, you're always with a halo. You're a goody two-shoes.

38:53That's the catch. I know. I wanted the horns. We'll see. Let's move on to story number four. Oh, hold on a second. I like that. I want to. Christian says in a super chat, future tots, topical show, of course. Should developers give gamers the ability to romance dozens of characters? Does that not give them unrealist expectations of relationships? All right, Christian. You had me in the first half. I'm like, oh, that's an interesting conversation. and then the second half if you are a fucking basement dweller gamer dork who thinks romancing someone in real life is just picking the right goddamn dialogue option modeling my romance in real life off of this video game i fucking said all the right things she still won't fuck me what the fuck again what i like about how they're talking about in fable is like let's make romance and this is me inferring into what they're talking about let's make romance a system romance isn't a goal it isn't a thing it isn't like oh it it starfield it is not organic that i fell in love with andrea andreja and made her marry me you know what i mean like i crafted my own fucking delusional narrative to make that make sense but like for this to be a system as in the same way leveling up is or this you know getting upgrading your magic is like that makes more sense to me like cool yeah you it's disposable you can have a million wives you can have no wives you know all the wives it's something that we've all been asking for it's that level and depth that we've always wanted of like this community focus that the fable team is talking about gets you excited because there is so many games that you've played where you walk into a town and you go man i want to get to know this community more i want to go in depth on this i want to stay here and live here longer because i've done so much it's like how can i do that and it looks like this team is trying to solve that and figure that out which is exciting number four on the roper report ubisoft rips an actor's heart out this is tom phillips at ign Again, actress Iman Ayaz has said she lost three years of work in a quote unquote life changing role just days after Ubisoft canceled its long awaited Prince of Persia Sands of Time remake.

40:56So hi, my name is Iman. I'm an actor. And last week I experienced the most devastating moment of my career. She says in a YouTube video posted online. I linked it up there. I started watching it. I love seeing YouTube creators that are also doing the voice acting acting business and stuff. Very, very cool. quote I'm still in her NDA so I'm going to try to give my do my best to speak as vaguely as possible about the details and I hope you understand at no point does he specifically say the game she worked on was Prince of Persia Sands of Time remake but the actress has also retweeted comments from those who have linked her to the role of Farrah in the game seemingly making the connection clear quote three years ago I booked a life-changing role on a life-changing project it was a rigorous audition process including a self-tape audition an in-person callback and a chemistry read that i had to fly out of the city for when i got the role i remember crying my eyes out i spent the last three years getting to know the team which has become like a family to me i've watched it grow through countless stages of development and i've waited and waited for it to finally be released so i could talk about it and this week i found out through the internet the project was canceled she said she was first contacted by her brother who had seen the news of the game's cancellation via online article you soft confirmed it had can it's prince of Persia the Sands of Time remake last week as part of a wider reorganization that featured layoffs at three development studios, the closure of two more, and the shutdown of five other projects.

42:20Quote, I was in total shock, she continued. Just two months ago, I filmed marketing for the project. Everything had been running smoothly and that was the last I had heard. We were all looking forward to it being released this year, so it felt like an emotional whiplash to suddenly find out in such a random way, end quote. Here's where, obviously, this all fucking sucks. Super sucks. All of us from an idiot talking into a microphone on his YouTube channel to a garbage man to a CEO can understand. Oh, this is this is heartbreaking. This is something I didn't think about when you when this project gets canceled.

42:55All right. Stick with me. Iman said she turned down other job opportunities during the process and worked on on the job while recovering from an injury. And she has been passionate about not missing out a Canadian citizen. uh iman said she had planned to apply for a u.s work visa based on having the game on her cv something she can no longer do as she is unable to officially acknowledge her work on it and as someone with pakistani heritage uh iman said the cancellation had been yet another setback after working quote twice as hard as non-marginalized actors to find space in the industry uh it's an upward battle and it's going to continue to be that way it's like you think you had your foot on the ledge and it's crumbled and you have to start again and it's just as steep end quote i know video game development very i mean from an outsider's perspective and so i've always understood the oh it says you worked at this studio and it closed down or whatever and maybe of concept art maybe you can talk in that interview about what you've been doing blah blah i never thought about it from hey i'm an actor and i was trying to do this to get my resume to prove this to get into get the work like that setback right of like what this meant sure i think of you i what this would have meant for her as an actress trying to launch her career go further what this would have been three years of work you turn down all these other options because of it that's a interesting angle that i just wouldn't have thought when i said oh yeah this sucks yeah no this is the heartbreaking one greg this is a young voice actor young actor as well and this is a huge piece in the resume for sure to now miss out on that you have to restart after three years of hard work there miss out on the other opportunities that you had everything probably hinged on that right of like this is going to be the starting point here that i'm going to lift off on and to have that all ripped away is unfortunate that's one of those you hear this story you're like man there's nothing on the development side that can help this poor girl right there's no one out there it's like hey we recorded voice lines with her if you need to know we'll share them or something with you but yeah this is something we'll never on the public side ever get to see or hear.

45:00Yeah. It's 11 minute video. Her YouTube channel is just her name. Iman Yaz. And I'm probably mispronouncing the last name. I apologize, but she said her first name in the things I got, but E M A N A Y A Z go follow right now. 900 subscribers on YouTube. Let's get that to a thousand. All right, everybody, a hundred of you go over there and subscribe to the YouTube channel right now. I left a comment in there. Go hard and say kind of funny sent you for now. We'll move on to number five. Valve's getting sued. We read the Reuters report. Video game developer and distributor Valve must face a 656 million pound, a.k.a.

45:36about$898 million lawsuit in Britain, which alleges it charged publishers excessive commissions for its Steam online store after a tribunal, which is fucking cool, ruled on Monday the case could continue. Valve was sued in 2024 on behalf of up to 14 million people in the United Kingdom who bought games or additional content through Steam or other platforms since 2018. Lawyers representing children's welfare advocate Vicky Shotbolt, who is bringing the case, alleged Valve prevents publishers from selling products more cheaply or earlier arrival on rival platforms of Steam by imposing conditions on them.

46:16They say Valve requires users to buy all additional content through Steam if they've bought the game through the platform, effectively, quote-unquote, locking in users to make purchases on its platform. This allows Valve to charge, quote-unquote, unfair and excessive commissions of up to 30%, ShopBolt's lawyer said in a hearing in October. Valve argued the case should not be certified to proceed towards a trial, an early step in the proceedings, but London's Competition Appeal Tribunal ruled the case could not continue. I hope they wear wigs. Valve did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

46:49The lawsuit is the latest mass case to get the go ahead in Britain, including separate cases against Apple over its App Store and Google over its Play Store, both of which center on commissions of up to 30%. Valve is separately facing a consumer action brought by gamers in the United States, which was filed in Seattle in August 2024. Okay. There you go. Will it change anything? I don't know. But I do know over there across the pond, that's what got Apple to stop using that stupid lightning cable. So okay then you know what I mean Go get them The tribunal could make things move for us They're going to say you know what The tribunal What did they say I forget what they say The tribe has spoken The tribe has spoken I don't know what he does But it's like it's so fucked up that there's been that many seasons of Survivor And I can only remember Joe Schmo Ashes to ashes you're dead to us And they throw the plate They had a plate with their face on it they throw away joe schmo show a good show everybody um okay go get them you know what i mean like i they make it's an interesting thing i've never thought of of like well yeah you buy the game on steam and i can't buy my dlc through the person directly from their website i can't buy it off epic game which you know which i go make sense but i'm like well i guess does it i don't know yeah does it i don't i don't know greg i never thought about it so used to being like when I buy it on a certain ecosystem, that's where I'm at.

48:18That's where I'll buy the DLC. I guess on the flip side, right, if I'm a developer or publisher and I want to maybe charge cheaper, I want it to be less money on whatever platform and it seems like, no, no, no, we still want a big cut of this, and they're dictating to me, the people who made it, what has to happen here, then yeah, I'm probably coming at them like, yo, it's pretty messed up. I'm trying to sell this out on whatever PC platform and everybody else is cool with it, but you're not. You're holding me back. yeah we'll wait and see again they shake it up all the time over there so go get them you know in the on the app store in the google stores go all right get them but then they come for playstation they come for xbox who knows come for everybody they come for everybody come for us why aren't we giving our pay well you know what i mean i got the patreon benefits over here i'll get the youtube benefits over here we're 11 people i can't stop it england and then i gotta bring lucy into the fray you know what i mean she's gotta go over there talk to them but ish She's got to go to the tribunal.

49:12She'll defend us. Number six. Walmart looks to have leaked two Nintendo Switch Online GameCube classics. This is Tom Phillips at IGN. Walmart is advertising Nintendo Switch Online with a poster that includes several GameCube classics yet to be made available via the service. An image now visible on Walmart.com shows a library of Nintendo Switch Online plus expansion packed titles including the brilliant pikmin 2 and metroid prime 2 echoes neither of which are currently playable on switch 2 metroid prime 2 is of particular interest to fans as some had speculated its release was deliberately being held back so nintendo could sell a full remake of the game instead the company launched a full metroid prime 1 remake back in 2023 but has since made no comment about continuing to relaunch the rest of the classic trilogy now with metroid prime 2 echoes seemingly being added to the nintendo switch online and expansion pass catalog some fans have said their hopes of a remake have now dimmed others meanwhile have criticized the decision to simply re-release the game's original gamecube version when it's we re-released i'm sorry when it's we when it's we re-release included some notable balance changes throw up your wnds in the chat for weird nintendo decisions that would make sense uh in par for the course with them.

50:31Also, dear Rockstar, Walmart's definitely going to leak your shit. That's why we're not doing it. We're not going to give you physical copies. Dear Walmart, they're going to leak your shit, man. It's the thing of like no matter what with Rockstar, PSN and Xbox fuck up all the time and put shit live too. They put shit live? A website's going to go live somewhere? Something's going to happen here. Something's going to happen. We're going to see. Mikey, does this excite you? I mean, the idea that I can play Pikmin 2 excites me. I've fallen in love with Pikmin. I want more Pikmin in my life. And so, yeah, the idea, I mean, it's always been that thing with all of our consoles, right?

51:06Of like, I want my old games to come with me. Now, old games are old. I rarely go back to them, but sometimes I do want to be able to go back to them. And having the power of choice to be able to say, yeah, I'm going back and I'm going to play an old game is a big deal, right? I am struggling. Your voice, stomach mic. Purchased some things on eBay that I didn't need. Did you buy those Blizzard boxes? I did. Well, I got those already. Can you believe it? 35 years of Blizzard? How much it cost you? Oh, those are expensive. Those are hundreds. Those are hundreds. But what I bought, Greg, was an OG Xbox.

51:38But you're the fucking guy who won't buy a new iPhone. Yeah. Well, it's like Verizon. They take too long. You know what I mean? Like, I don't want to go into Verizon. Go to Apple Store. Why are we not snappy? Well, that's when you got to, because you go to Verizon, because they transfer everything over. They get, you know, it's like it's in there. I'm in the cloud. Part of the plan. I walk in the Apple. Here's my old one. Give me the new one. I'll set it up. Bye. This time I don't want to give them the old one. Is that weird? No. I actually don't want to transfer all my bullshit over this time.

52:03That's weird. You want to start fresh? I want to start fresh. I want to hold on to all those photos in that one. Just leave that one there. I don't need that. Just give me a new one. You know what I mean? Sure. A little weird. Why not upload those to the cloud and then not sync? I'm like, you have 16 ,000 photos. Now they're all in the cloud, right? So yeah, I got to battle that. It's not the hidden drive though, I hope. you know what i haven't fucked with the hidden drive you gotta have fuck with the hidden drive really oh yeah the hidden folder yeah okay okay okay greg i got things out there my nude and my nude can't leak um yeah i mean to see some of these lineups if you're a nintendo fan you're probably excited about this yeah there's probably some games calling your name i think it's been fun to jump back to the old nintendo games for just a little bit here's spending a long time on them Well, I'll tell you what.

52:53And again, maybe we will, maybe we won't. So I can give you this tidbit to tease you into the games cast. I've been looking for an epic adventure lately, right? And I've been thinking about Ocarina at a time again. Like, I love Ocarina so much, and I haven't replayed Ocarina a long time. But then I'm like, well, I've got to fucking do tiers then, because I never finish tiers. So it's like, I should boot tiers on Switch 2. Anyways, though, I look at this, and I'm like, cool. Continue to flesh out your catalog, Nintendo. As somebody with very little Nintendo nostalgia, it doesn't do much for me.

53:17But here's an interesting wrinkle for you. Of course, you listen to Greg Wachin every day. I know it's the first thing you do when it goes live. You saw yesterday's that Ben Miller, my four-year-old super into smash bros now. Right. So he's, he's meeting the characters in a different way. Right. And so he noticed, Oh, who's that? And of course it was Samus. And because he's seen my Samus, uh, amiibo and he saw me play a little bit of prime four or whatever. And so then I got to blow his mind when I was like, well, I'm going to be zero suit Samus, you know, that's her. And he's like, that's her.

53:45I'm like, that's right. I see. Oh, cool. And then today he, I was editing games daily building it right because of course blessing off on assignment and he saw me there and he can we see the uh the uh art again from walmart.com this kid sees it on my screen as I'm putting it in and just getting the link for the doc to put in the let's look link or whatever and he leans in as close as he can to this perfect in points at metroid right there in the nintendo entertainment pointed it out and he's like who's that and I'm like that's what samus looked like and I'm like and then he knew samus next to her and or next to next to nes Metroid, he knew Metroid Echoes was that Samus.

54:21And it's like crazy that he was able to look at that blocky ass Bioshock Big Daddy and be like that's Samus too. I'm like how the fuck do you know so much about Samus all of a sudden? Good pull. That's great. I mean there's so many box arts on this. It's amazing that he looked up at those two, you know? You don't want to look at Star Fox down there. Look at Crazy Creepy Star Fox. Crazy Creepy Star Fox. I love Crazy Creepy Star Fox. He doesn't love Crazy Creepy Star Fox. Okay. Oh sorry. I mean yeah maybe Have you ever gone back that far with some of these old games? Oh, yeah. And does he vibe with those?

54:52Or did he go, eh, give me Forza. Hit or miss. Yeah, no, it's more he's jumping into the old Marios. He's go back that. But he got hung up on 64 for a while, where he wanted to keep doing 64. But he is a wonder boy. So I'm very excited for that update that's coming because they have a bunch of good parenting stuff. Patrick Kleppik was just talking about it in his cross-play newsletter. Very excited for that. Have you thought about showing him 1080 snowboarding, though? No, because we love skate. That could change him. We love skate. That's great. I mean, you can't be changed more. This kid can't harsh the Gnar more than this.

55:20I told you about the kickflip story, right? Got the kickflip. No, no, no. We went to the skate park so he could roll on a scooter, but then it turned out, oh, the skate park's actually packed with the real skaters. Okay. And so one of the things we're working on with Ben is he wants to ask for something or go talk to the person or whatever. And so he was, to me, one of the skaters kept dropping in. He was like 49, I think it was. And he's like, do you think he could do a kickflip? I'm like, go ask him. And so Ben walked over and looked up and he goes, can you do a kickflip? And the guy looked down, he's like, oh, it's been a few years.

55:49But yeah, and he came down and this guy kick flipped over. And he's like, he's like, I'm 49. So 10 attempts for me is one attempt for a normal person. And he got it like on the seventh or eighth one. He nailed it. That's me. That was pretty cool. How about a longboard for you? I know that Jen doesn't want you on a skateboard, but I got a longboard screaming your name. Just a cruiser. Just a cruiser. And we can even give you one of those poles with the tennis ball. I do not give you the extra. That's too far. And let's just let you cruise. But can't I just cruise? What's the, is the longboard that much more stable than a normal board?

56:15Well, I just want to roll. I just want to roll next to Ben. If you want to roll, then that's why we get to the longboard. You got your phone? No, not on me right now. Oh, okay. Why? What do you want? I was going to say, text my wife. Say, hey, just let Greg roll. We've been thinking he could roll probably on a skateboard pretty well. I'll send her a photo of the longboard. Thank you. I got it. We'll start there. We'll start. That's good, actually. That's good. That's what I'll say. Speaking of the virtual console number seven, let's watch the virtual boy Nintendo Classics overview trailer. this popped today of course launching on february 17th are a slew of virtual console games coming to the nintendo switch online plus expansion pass they say launch lineup there's galactic pinball 3d tetris uh tele roboxer uh virtual boy wario land the mansion of is in his mouth golf and then red alarm coming later is mario clash mario tennis jack bros and space invaders virtual collection when i tell you you couldn't pay me to play this stuff i want to yell out who's playing this and i know there's some jabroni out there playing this but like honest to god who's playing this it's that thing where you can all make fun of me for being obsessed with ghostbusters you know what i mean you can all make fun of me for my weird superman obsessions yada yada yada the people who are so fucking in the nintendo tank that they're like hey we're releasing another i forget is it 300 what is the peripheral for cost to buy the virtual boy we're releasing that a joke, one of our failed things that everybody makes fun of us for.

Oh, 99 bucks, but still. Come on. I could buy a World of Warcraft box for that. Just one. Just one you could get for that. And I get it, we all got our own little things, but I look at this and I'm like, not a fucking chance. Not a chance of putting my face up. No, no thank you. Meta's pulling out you should too for the classic variety alright that kind of looks good though that golf looks good wait a second no I'm not gonna play Mike all we really want on virtual console is the N64 wrestling games make it happen pay whoever you need to pay pay them get me at least Wrestlemania 2000 but also no mercy also WCW and WR Revenge then I'll stop talking alright I'm okay with that I'm all about that but And 64 wrestling games coming to Nintendo Switch Online would be big news.

58:41Some would say huge news. If I wanted something, say the tiniest news I need to know about today, where would I go? Greg, I'll take you to our last story, the Wii News Channel, where we cover all the small news items you need to know about.

58:58Number eight, the Wii News. VGC reports, the Super Mario Galaxy's movie release has been brought forward with the film now arriving simultaneously in major markets like the US and UK. Hidden at the bottom of a news release was the announcement that the US release date for Galaxy has been brought forward by two days to April 1st. No fooling. No fooling. The Super Mario Galaxy will move from April 3rd to April 1st in the US in many additional markets globally and will be released on April 24th in Japan with select territories releasing throughout April, the announcement reads. Okay, cool. Fantastic.

59:34I'll tell you what. That snuck up on me. I knew we had the direct and yada, yada, yada, blah, blah. I didn't know when that movie was coming out. Okay. So April, okay. You know what I mean? I mean, did you watch that trailer at all? Because you and I were on Kind of Funny Games Daily the week before. I thought I did. Okay. I caught the Instagram thing of them getting their fire flowers and Louie, she's not going to be scared. And I was like, oh, cute. And I watched it and stopped. I was like, oh, cute. And then I saw clips of Blessing reacting and seeing things. And I'm like, I didn't watch everything.

1:00:03Clearly, yeah. It was good. You know, on Friday, I told you, Greg, I was like, I don't need any more of this. No. I don't know what else they could show. Yeah. But then whatever they showed got me even more excited. Okay. A lot of Yoshi. Yeah, he's big. Which, I mean, big deal. Pretty exciting stuff. A lot of Yoshi. Nice little Mario Odyssey. Yeah. We saw some Odyssey with the cool desert maps. I'm like, yeah. Okay. I'll take it. Okay. Fair enough. Speaking of Nintendo, Nintendo says, Tamagotchi Life, living the dream. Nintendo Direct is coming on January 29th at 6 a.m. Pacific. No, we will not be waking up for that.

1:00:38There's some conversation about this game. People be chirping about this game like it could be fun. I think it could be fun. Like, I don't know if I'm going to vibe with it, but people have been chirping so much that I think I have to give this game a try. I definitely am interested. I'm definitely going to watch the Direct. We're going to talk about it. I'm just saying we're not going to get up at 6 a.m. for this. We're not going to get up at 6 a.m. for this. Come on, we've got things to do out there. Don't worry about that. But Games Daily will cover it and run you through the big high points of it.

1:01:03Then there's a new poster for Fallout Season 2, and it reveals the final two episodes have been moved up. That means that today at 6 p.m. Pacific, you can get your new episode before the Wednesday usual release date for Episode 7. Then Episode 8 is, in fact, February 3rd, 6 p.m. as well. What are they moving for? Why would they move that? I think, oh, I mean, what? Hasn't the usual drop time been, is it 12.01 or is it 6 a.m. on Wednesdays? That's a terrible time. That's a stupid, stupid time. I thought it was for the longest time. I thought the show came out on Thursdays. And then I was like, oh, it's coming out Wednesday.

1:01:37But a weird ass time on Wednesday. I don't know what's going on with this shit. You know what I mean? Final two episodes. I'm excited to talk with you and blessing about this season. Yeah. Because I have a lot of thoughts. Okay. I have a lot of good. Some bad. I'm not vibing. Oh, I'm liking, but I'm not in. You're not love. I'm not loving. Can they, if they land these two episodes, do you think then you're going to. I think they can bring me back. I think they can bring me back with the exciting two episodes, but I still will remember the first six where I said, okay, you know, it wasn't great.

1:02:05I remember we are doing our Fallout review and back half spoiler cast next week. It will not move from our date. We're still going to do it Thursday the 5th because there's just too many reviews and interviews and embargoes happening on the other days to do it. So sorry, Amazon, move it all you want, but we're not fucking helping. We're not doing it. Not on my watch. Okay. Then other people are like, yeah, and Wonder Man comes out tonight. Who the hell's Wonder Man? Thank you very much Mike Come on MCU Oh shit I saw a commercial for that Okay I like Ben Kingsley But not enough to where I'm going to be like I'm going to sit down and watch this shit I'll still die on that hill They missed it They got a lock in They didn't lock in And they kind of got loosey goosey with it And they made me watch a bunch of bullshit They lost it They lost my trust Pixelated Soul says It's been getting really good reviews Great I'm glad And I want people to enjoy it I just like nothing.

1:02:58That's one of those ones. You're going to have to tell me at the end or tell me throughout. Like I, I just, I could not get, I will not be able to dedicate any time there. I will not be, I will not be interested to watch that. And I say that as somebody just, I just, as you all know, I don't value my TV watching. That's just not, you know what I mean? Like it's gotta be something Jen and I both enjoy. Sometimes it's gotta be something Jen enjoys. And I play a game next door. So it's like, just, you know what I mean? The last time y 'all got all crazy, Khaleesi had an alien arm and y 'all were like you gotta watch this Mike ah fuck you nobody said you gotta watch this nobody said you gotta watch Secret Invasion no one said you gotta watch Secret Invasion that honestly was my breaking point where it was just like alright cool I'm out unless Tim's making me watch these for content or unless they're awesome and they're great and I have to watch them just saying it's a good show great cool I'm sorry I'm glad it's a good show Peacemaker season two was a good show too I didn't watch it I watched episode one and I was like ah it didn't hit as hard as the and I'm like I know it'll be like Peacemaker season one where it builds and builds and builds and I care more but I didn't and TikTok showed me the people who cameoed in and I was like cool that's all I really need to know about thanks everybody I'm gonna play video games the true art form Nobel over on BS that's Blue Sky Tim says Monster Hunter Wiles has sold over 11 million units congratulations Greg Nice little accomplishment there.

1:04:23Not bad. Not bad. 11 million. Maybe a big DLC. Boost those numbers up. I would like that. I would like that. I'd like to see that. I'd like to see that. Speaking of big DLCs, Splatoon 3 got a new update. Or is getting a new update. 11.0.0 drops on January 29th and is changing the meta. I started reading it and I almost went cross-eyed. So I was like, you know what? Changing the meta. I don't care. Andy can tell you what the meta is because I don't know what the fuck's happening. Got a splat. Reigns the Witcher launches next month on February 25th. and I have a preview in Gamescast right after this.

1:04:52So come hear about that. And then our final bullet point in Wii News is that Dr. Disrespect still sucks. This guy sucks. We look over now at the end of Wii News to the Super Chats. YouTube.com slash Kind of Funny Games to be part of the show with your questions, comments, concerns, and everything under the Daily Video Game Sun. Joshy Frog says, I'm getting the virtual boy thing, period. I know I'm broken. Again, enjoy your money and your time however you want. Spend it. But they have you on a dog leash. you are their pet you're not an informed buyer like me Greg Miller, the new voice of Pokemon Yelsing says N64 wrestling games are allegedly on your phone yes I know and they're allegedly on my Steam Deck they're allegedly everywhere I want it to be, I turn it on and there it is I also want 2K to say oh man everybody really wants those games why don't we just make a modern one just like that and don't come at me with the fucking All-Stars brawl or any of that, no just make it like that make it look like that make it like that Zeke Speaks says Samus was my first crush too good for him I don't know if we're in crush I don't think we're in crush phase yes with Samus if he has a crush on anybody it's metanite you know what I mean yeah yeah yeah that'd be holding down yeah yeah my other favorite thing of course my son four years old incredibly innocent as you'd expect for a four-year-old and so he caught my wife off guard the other day I knew this from reading my books at bedtime with him.

1:06:16All right. But we're at breakfast or in the car on over the weekend. And he just goes, daddy, who's the black guy again? And I saw Jen start processing the question. And I just went, it's Umbreon, the Pokemon Umbreon. Wow. Yeah. I was even searching. I was going deep in there. It is a broad question, but you have to remember who you're talking to as a four-year-old. It's Umbreon. It's Umbreon, the Pokemon. You know what it is? It's Umbreon. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, yep, that's the one. Thanks, Dad. No problem. Grant Ramirez says, and this is Super Chat, of course, GTA 6 price predictions. I'm assuming$80 minimum.

1:06:56I think that's a super safe bet. Don't you? $80 minimum for GTA 6? Or do you think they go$70? You don't think they're going to do$70? I think they can do$80 and get away with it. I mean, of course, they can do anything. We know that. We truly know that they can do anything. And even the person that says, I wouldn't do that, they're going to do that. You think they break the mold? I mean, the mold's been broken. The mold's been broken. We've had$80 games before. We're still settled at$70, though. Here's the thing about it. I don't put it past them to have the multiple version skew thing. And I know we always talk about collector's editions, but I mean, here is basic bitch GTA 6, no online, and that's$70.

1:07:35Then there's$90, that's that, and online with whatever, shark cards and y 'all. Then there is the$120 that comes with X, Y, and Z. Well, let's get real. We talked about the leaks. They're going to sell you on getting it early, right? There's going to be a version that says you play this two to five days early, right? There's no doubt about that. The only reason not to is, again, what are we talking about with leaks and entertainment push? I think the way, again, I'm reading into what they're doing here, right, on a rumor of what this Polish site thinks is going to happen. But if you are that concerned about leaks, leaks, you're also just that concerned about expectations and conversation.

1:08:20And so in that world, doing early access doesn't benefit you because it is going to be, I paid extra money and I didn't like it, or I played it and it hasn't panned out. And then you get to the Friday normie release and people are like, I'll, I'll wait and see for what the stream or whoever I watch or whatever, what their final thoughts are going to call. That says like, I don't think that really happens. I like that, Greg, But I'm on the different sides. How many Normies will then become the Super Edition owners? Because they say, I can't not miss this. I have to be there. Oh, it's$80 normally,$120 to get it five days early.

1:08:54I have to give them$120. Or I want, like there's no question in my mind, they'll be jumping on that. They have to be all over that. We will wait and see. I can't wait. Onimus Prime Super Chats. I think the thing I'm most excited for with Fable going forward is implementing Forza's weather and season system. Imagine Fable 2, Albion has seasons. Yeah, it will be very interesting to see the weather. Of course, just the world in general, right? What they do with Forza and all that tech of bringing the real world into your racing game, how they make these worlds look so special, but also so fantasy-like, right?

1:09:29We saw a lot of cool settings in this that aren't just a, hey, there's a medieval castle on some, you know, prairie over there. It's going to be really fun to see. if you listen you want seasons in fable 2 that's fine but your ps5 version will be delayed that's what happens claw master says greg with two g's which i hate uh be careful about getting hyped for fable we've been burned before with games like cyberpunk and how every journalist hyped it maybe didn't hear claw master when i said if they do this there's a lot of he's putting a lot of a lot of if there's a lot of asterisks there's a lot of things going on we had a great conversation when we first saw it right how shallow is this how deep is this pool is the pool like a kitty size pool but it's super deep we'll find out also a lot of community focus haven't seen much else yeah you know what i mean so we're still waiting on the other parts of the game on the youtube chat dirty daddy 84 says greg does have two g's dot dot dot please time him out he knows exactly what i mean all right time it out i'm oh we know barrett drink your fucking show barrett in the wide shot over here that's so cool all he needs to be doing is eating an apple with a knife you know what i mean just fucking hanging out with a knife fucking over here sorry getting to my flow.

1:10:33Foxy Steve says, as a fable sicko, I'm happy morality isn't tied to look. I'd rather control how I look regardless of my choices. I like that. Yeah, I think we're in a special one where it's like, ditch the horns. People are going to be commenting on you. They're going to talk about you. You don't have to have some sort of different look to it. Irk the Imp says, is this finally the fable game Peter Molyneux promised 20 years ago? We'll see. That's the problem. Fable has promised things for so long that I can't just believe this one. Yeah, but what was the multiplayer one? the cube yeah we're all gonna tap the cube and when we'll get to there'll be an amazing prize the fuck is wrong with us uh kabob says uh with the lack of a physical edition mean we don't get the classic gta grid cover is the key art of the protagonists on the car hood it it's a good question but yeah i think you would just get your little your little square game tile itself yeah just the the protagonists in the pink background and the logo probably yeah i don't know what's GTA 5's right now, they change it, don't they?

1:11:30They change the game tiles quite often. I don't know what GTA 5's game tile looks like right now, but I mean, the cover art will be the cover art on the standard edition when it comes out, for sure. They'll have that. Steffi Queen Super Chat says, Hey, y 'all, have you seen that Markiplier made a horror movie based on the game Iron Lung? It's in theaters this week. Fans got it in 2 ,500 theaters. I did not see that. Congratulations to Markiplier and all his fans who did that. I won't be seeing it. I was once a fan of a site and I had to go see laser team in theaters. So I don't trust, I don't trust internet people making movies anymore.

1:12:07I'm really excited for the Momoa Batista movie collab coming out. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty excited. Also bought an anaconda last night. Bad purchase, but I'm all pumped up about it. Maybe. And Zootopia. Excited for Zootopia too. Okay. Zootopia is going to be streaming somewhere though for free. well they're selling it on Amazon you'd think that they would sell it first then put it on Disney Plus a month later for streaming for free so you can get suckers like me who want it now to buy it right so it's like I didn't want to go to the theater I'm bored of theaters Greg I don't want to go anymore and so it's like just sell it to me for$24.99 I'm going to buy it let me watch it at my own home it's right and then yeah Benny's seen Zootopia and I didn't buy it so it was definitely streaming free somewhere on one of the services but that's the game you play really you google it Decider's got an article that's completely outdated.

1:12:57Yeah. Zootopia 2? No, no. Zootopia 1 you said you bought. No, no. Zootopia 2 I bought. What's the one in theaters right now? Zootopia 2. Sorry, I'm fucking lost. I'm lost in the sauce. So the fucking horny Zootopia movie that's still in theaters can also be bought on Amazon right now. Right now. Awesome. I love that. You know how much I love Day in Day. Come on. I needed it. I needed it. I didn't know I could do that. I might buy that then too. You know what I mean? and that's it for the super chats everybody oh two came to the very bottom here uh veram deck says it is okay to be cautious about new games but cyberpunk does not mean every new game is going to be a disaster at launch sure but we've been burned before and we should pay attention yep uh and then rex the dino pup to the sequel 823 super chats say first time super chatter here always love listening to kfgd and kf in general on the way home or on break time it's always fun thanks for listening we're happy to be here for you of course we couldn't be here for you if you didn't support us on patreon.com slash kind of funny youtube.com slash kind of funny games apple and spotify to pick up your membership to keep the lights and mics on uh your wrongs yeah i hate i want to leave it closed jeppo i just want you to know from now on when you say anything i just delete your name you know what i mean so that's what you get so i don't even i don't even know i don't even know what you're doing it just deleting your name i mean he keeps bringing up this you could was the stuff that's what happens to uh Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
