Intergalactic Reveal Coming 2027, 2 Last of Us Projects Confirmed - Kinda Funny Games Daily 09.29.26

22:43Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Yeah, I'm really excited about it. I hope it comes out next year. I don't have the utmost faith that it will come out next year. I guess I'm 50-50 on it. I mean, it's been six years. I mean, it has been six years. they were working on The Last of Us online and so how much time does that chomp into it? I think for the sake of PlayStation it doesn't need to come out next year because I expect PlayStation, unpredictable of what quality level we're going to get nowadays in certain games but I expect God War Laofey to be amazing The big game I think that should be the slot of the big game I think it'd be smart on them at least on the critical reception side or the awards season side I should say to have God of War Lauve and Intergalactic come out in separate years.

23:29Blessing Adeoye Jr.:That said, on the sales side, it's like, who cares? God of War Lauve is coming out this fiscal year. Intergalactic would be the next fiscal year if we're doing that March cutoff. Yeah, it feels like, I feel like that game's coming out as the kind of like, towards the tail end of the PlayStation 5. Like once that game comes out, it's kind of them being like, all right, see ya for the PlayStation 6. Get ready to pay for things on your controller. that kind of nonsense because like we don't have anything we don't we don't have any big games announced beyond intergalactic on the playstation first party side right aside from phyzzent ah damn ah oh tough that's rough huh so yeah i i think that's a good observation yeah i think intergalactic would make it would make sense yeah i i again like i'm excited to see what that game is.

24:18For now, it's just like intrigue more than a passion for it. But they know what they're doing. They make good games. So we'll see.

24:29Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Okay, people are shouting out fair games as well. God of War Trilogy, even though when they revealed the God of War Trilogy remake stuff, it seems like that's very early. So I wouldn't be surprised if that strikes me as a PlayStation 6 release, probably a cross-release PS5 and PS6 situation. Let's bring in some super chats for you. Street Shadow says, haven't we noticed that Sony has moved to a model of tease, then big reveals, then out within a year of the big reveal? It's been a pretty common pattern. I agree. That's why I'm 50-50 on it coming out 2027. I think another common pattern we see in video game development is games taking a long time, and Naughty Dog specifically taking a very long time to put out games and games getting delayed.

25:12Blessing Adeoye Jr.:So I think their intention would be for it to come out next year. Yeah, I think that's right.

25:19Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Let's see here. The Mighty Mike says, There's enough time from now until the next Last Blitz for Tam to realize he's wrong to see why another Last Blitz is justified. Okay. All right. All right, man. Immersion Fragrances says, cheat code, I just got$300 Tempur-Pedic sheets slash cases at Mattress Firm on sale for like$60. Is this an ad? Immersion Fragrances is a candle company. Maybe they're moonlighting at Mattress Firm, but hey, I might go to Mattress Firm. Oh, man, get a silk mattress. I don't believe Mattress Firm is real, by the way. I think all these physical mattress shops... I've never seen one open.

26:03Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I've never seen anybody in them. I see them. I've never seen anybody is walking through a fucking... They're all asleep. You actually walk in and they break out in a musical. Marketron says, a stye on the eye is worth three hernias on the stomach. Ask Mike. I like that way of thinking. Jeez. Josh K says... Actually, that doesn't... That's awful for you. One stye is the equivalent of three hernias? You're getting rocked there, man. I'll be honest. I prefer my stye than a hernia. I'll take my style or hernia any day. Josh K writes in and says, personally looking forward to Intergalactic. Hope it brings back the adventurous vibe of Uncharted versus the dreariness of Last of Us.

26:49Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Also, what do you think of the rumor about L.A. Noire 2 being the next Rockstar game after GTA 6? Hell no. No, absolutely not. No shot. Unless somebody else is making it. Maybe they're doing the Max Payne remake thing. Yeah, here's a question I have. what do you think what's the likelihood that the song intergalactic by beastie voice is used in this oh high very like very high low hanging fruit oh yeah that's a that's a slam dunk i'm excited for it because there was uh quite a few years ago there was a uh i want to say it was a neil druckman interview um where he was talking about how much he appreciated like the game design of FromSoft stuff in Dark Souls.

27:30Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And I, looking at Intergalactic, I think there's a chance you see some of that influence. Like, I don't think it's going to be a Souls-like by any means. Well, isn't the new picture they put out is just the character with a sword, right? Yeah. Laser sword, basically. I think you're going to get some Souls-y type stuff. Oh, yeah. Like Souls-y influence, not straight-up Souls-like. Now I'm even more excited about it. Now I'm in. Because, like, Naughty Dog is such a, they're a storytelling studio. They love their stories. Neil Druckmann, I could tell he cares a lot about wanting to tell good and not even just good, but stories and games that feel like they take a step forward.

28:10Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Right. He wants to push the boundaries of what you can do with that. And I think what FromSoft does with their storytelling really is the answer of what, like how to get to that next step. You know, very different studios and different ways of storytelling between the very blockbuster cinematic-y Naughty Dog stuff and the more lore-heavy pick up an item and read it in the FromSoft stuff. I think there's somewhere in between those two things that Naughty Dog can probably tap into to really step to the next level. Yeah, I think you're right. That is a good way to think of how, at the very least, Naughty Dog's storytelling could evolve.

28:47Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Yeah. Yeah. You're selling me on it more than Naughty Dog is. that's because they won't talk about it that's because they they barely talk about intergalactic we're gonna we're gonna talk about it in 2027 i guess but i i i'm i don't know i'm excited about this game hopefully it lives up uh we'll do one we'll do a couple more super chats one from silver j hawkins who says late birthday tax my 33rd birthday was yesterday can't wait for today's show happy birthday silver j hawkins happy birthday that's jesus age so watch out nerdy papa g writes and says the intergalactic theme has been my ringtone since the debut i have moved to pc but this is the game to get me to buy a ps5 game since death training 2 stoked hell yeah um tam we're gonna move on to story number two but before we do here's a word from our sponsors from our sponsor this episode's brought to you by proton vpn recently more and more content i've been trying to watch has given me this content isn't available in your region message and i hate it but with proton vpn it's easy to change your virtual location so you can access the sites and content you need no matter where you are proton vpn is a secure vpn service designed for people who want to prioritize their digital privacy and security it keeps what you do online private and it all works seamlessly so you can be confident you're getting an extensive server network high speed connections, integrated ad blockers, and compatibility services without restrictions in over 145 countries.

30:39Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And we're back with story number two. The Witcher 3 Remastered has already broken Steam concurrent player records. This is from Jacqueline Thomas at IGN. We're just a few hours into the launch of Witcher 3 Remastered, and it's already beaten its previous record for concurrent players on Steam. Before the remaster came out, Steam's previous player peak for The Witcher 3 was in January 2020 when The Witcher TV series came out. Back then, 103 ,329 people were all playing The Witcher 3 at the same time on Valve's platform, according to SteamDB. Now that the remaster is here, The Witcher 3 has reached a new peak of 114 ,696 players, a massive 258 % jump from last month where 31 ,959 people were playing.

31:23Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Keep in mind, though, that this only takes Steam players into account. There are likely a huge amount of people playing on Xbox Series X and S, PS5, Switch 2, and on other PC platforms such as GOG and Battle.net. These numbers will likely go up throughout the week, too, as we head into the weekend. People will have more time to jump into the game, and because it's a free update for anyone who already owns The Witcher 3, there's a low barrier to entry. Tam, are you getting around to this remaster at any point? I will eventually. I think I'm going to play it a little bit just to get a good grasp of what it's doing.

32:01But I think I will probably save a full replay for maybe like Christmas during the break or something like that. I just think it's so impressive that this game, I feel like there's only a handful of games that I would say are perennially popular, as in no matter what is going on, they're always going to be played in high player counts. it's like world of warcraft a gta game and maybe like an nba game and it feels like this is like made it into that rarefied like uh group of games where no matter what time of the year is how long it's been since the game's out there's always some degree of popularity around that game we're gonna keep getting the witcher 3 re-releases until the end of time man yeah and it doesn't seem like anyone minds which good game can't complain good game and i i love how cd project treats their

32:54Blessing Adeoye Jr.:games i love that they go back and update them and this is the second remaster essentially in the last four years of this game i know the last one was the complete edition but for them to come back and continually find ways to improve it and have people excited to go back to it i've i played it all throughout my weekend and moment to moment i was shocked by how gorgeous this game looks granted I was having a lot of like tech issues on my side I've not seen people complain about the same things since the game's been out so I think it's just whatever way it's running on my platforms for some reason is weird I'm playing on PlayStation 5 and Pro but regardless still looks gorgeous um I'm I just finished the Bloody Baron uh quest line and it's so crazy how engaging the game is despite me, I'm having realizations on why I dropped the game in 2015 when it originally came out.

33:47Interesting.

33:47Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Because I always talk about how I got to the point where they asked me to find Dandelion and I never found Dandelion. And I just, I for some reason dropped the game and I think I got really into FIFA. But I'm replaying now and there are all these things where I'm like, oh, I don't really, the gameplay, I wish the gameplay resonated with me more. This is going to be my version of your last mistake. where I think the gameplay of The Witcher 3 is so not my jam, but the writing is so good and the questing is so good that it doesn't really matter. I'm so into the characters in the world and the story, and that's enough for me to get me through the gameplay that I'm not feeling as much.

34:26Yeah, I mean, the combat is functional, is what I would say. It's not offensive in any way, but also it's not the thing that I reflect fondly on when I think back to my time with The Witcher 3, it is everything you just said, which is the characters and the actual story itself and the world building. So I think it's a pretty common viewpoint to have in that The Witcher 3 is about all that stuff and the combat just kind of gets you where you need to go. Yeah. I was interested to see if they made any meaningful changes to it for the remaster, this remaster. It doesn't seem like it. And I think that for me, a lot of the issue is like, it doesn't feel like it has a lot of heft to it.

35:10It doesn't feel satisfying. It works, but it just doesn't feel satisfying to me. And that's why I don't really think much about the combat when I think about The Witcher 3. But the thing that is appealing to me to go back to is re-experiencing that story again. So you're right. I wouldn't blame you if you were like, all right, that's enough.

35:28Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Yeah, and I'm not there. Like, I'm going to keep playing. I'm actually really enjoying my experience. I was worried at first. my first five hours of playing Witcher 3 Remastered, I was like, oh man. And I think part of it is I'm kind of a snob and I think you might be too when it comes to combat. You know what I mean? Because we love Souls games. We're coming off of Onimusha as well. And video game combat and RPG combat has come such a long way in the last 10 years. So when you go back to something like that, it's like, ooh. But no, I'm going to keep going on. I'm going to keep playing The Witcher 3 because I'm so engaged with the story and Geralt's character and everything that's going on.

36:04I don't know if it is the case, but I think it is. You might just be able to, once you hit that point, where you're like, all right, I'm done with this. It's not carrying me through. Just turn the combat difficulty down and power through the story. Because it is worth, the story is so good, and some of the quests that are deeper into the game are really, really cool. So I would say if it's the gameplay that is going to be the deciding factor on whether you play it or not, maybe look into just adjusting that if you can.

36:30Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Yeah, I've already messed around with quite a few things. I'm still, there's the, somebody asked in chat, is there story difficulty? There is like a very easy story difficulty. I think I'm one up from that because there's like four different ones. And people, when I streamed it, were saying, because I picked what they kind of present as the standard. And people were like, oh, you should go one up, which is I think Blood and Bones or something like that. And I played that for about half my time during the weekend. and I think, yeah, there was a point of frustration where I was just like, I'm not enjoying the combat enough to then want to struggle at all during the combat.

37:05Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I just want to kill these, oh, what are they called? The water people. I don't remember. Because there's the hacks. Are they called druggers? No. Drowners. I just want to kill these drowners, man. That's all I'm doing. Yeah, good time. And I'm very happy that they're being rewarded with their efforts. I want to see this happen more over the years. They're talking about those games that tend to stick around would you think we'll see this for games like elden ring and baldur's gate 3 oh hell no no i don't think i don't think elden ring no way um i think even baldur's gate i think that the team is probably content with what they have out there and it's such a baldur's gate especially it feels like it is similar to the witcher where it's like the thing you come to it for is so open-ended that you don't come back just for like an upgrade on visuals that kind of stuff it feels like they have enough in there to just be like yeah you can play this game forever it's fine you'll have weird different experiences and i those are both two teams are always moving ahead and if it does happen it will be a situation where another team is taking it and taking you know messing with it which is what happens here but i i think what we're more likely to see now is going back and getting the witcher one and two which they've talked about yeah we know we know we're getting the witcher one that's the next one like the Witcher 1 is the game that's most in dire need of a remake because obviously the popularity for the franchise skyrocketed at 3, but 1 is a very important, and 2 is where they kind of started to find the sweet spot, but 1 is the one that I think a lot of people would be most interested in if they can get up to the standards of Witcher 3 in terms of how it feels and looks and plays.

38:41Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Tim, let's move on to story number 3. Guillermo del Toro reveals he tried to adapt Bioshock into a movie, but a disastrous phone call ended the project before it began. I'm reading from Brian Altano and Virginia Glaze at IGN and I would assume this is one of I forget if Brian's already left if he has then this would probably be one of his last articles here at IGN. Shout out to Brian. Big shout out to Brian Altano and shout out to Virginia Glaze. I'm friends with her as well. She's a big fighting game person. She's amazing. She's got a fighting game name. She does. Virginia Glaze. Yeah that for sure is a fighting game name.

39:14Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Virginia Glaze is a that's a Street Fighter character or have ever heard one. That's a Streets of Rage character. Oh, yeah. Acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro confirmed that he was involved in early concepts for a Bioshock movie, but said the project was ultimately scrapped after a disastrous phone call. Speaking with IGN as part of the IGN 30 Icons series, del Toro admitted that he never wants to make a video game again, and while he was previously open to adapting existing games into films, his last attempts at doing so ended in disaster. It's been long rumored that Del Toro was involved in a movie adaptation of Bioshock that never got off the ground.

39:53Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Back in 2017, he even admitted that he'd love to see the game's story brought to the silver screen after a previous attempt with Gore Verbinski attached. Never got made. Years later, he has officially confirmed his relationship with a Bioshock adaptation, though it never saw the light of day, and it seems there was some drama behind its premature demise. Quote, You know, I tried, he told us, when he asked if he'd ever want to make a film adaptation of a game. Quote, We had a very contentious call about a couple of games. I find that the dynamics of a video game are very different than a movie.

40:27Blessing Adeoye Jr.:They may be cinematically similar in terms of the camera moving and this and that, but the storytelling is very different because you're not solving puzzles, you're not assembling. When we made the structure for Insane, we created what I call a mandala. You have to give the illusion of an infinite sandbox and you lead audiences to the right or to the left through their own decisions. But you sort of have to corner them. So it's a very different thing. So adapting it, Bioshock, we had a couple of calls. They are probably one of the most disastrous calls I've ever had. So no, fuck no. End quote.

41:02Blessing Adeoye Jr.:While he didn't go into detail about what made these calls so contentious and disastrous, the conversations seemed to have put a sour taste in his mouth. Which is a shame, because a Bioshock movie with Del Toro at the helm sounds like the best thing since sliced bread. It's one of his favorite games, after all, a fact that he also shared with us in the same interview. And although Del Toro has been involved with several major video games over the years, being PT and Death Stranding, He told us he's hesitant to make his own games after Insane, his planned trilogy of dark cinematic games, never got released.

41:34Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Quote, never again, he told us. No, not at all. We developed Insane, and then that went down. A lot of the ideas later, I saw stuff that was done in other video games that was similar. And I went, well, somebody did it. That's great. But we were aiming really high. End quote. A whole lot there. A sad series of events. I feel like a Bioshock from Del Toro would have been pretty sick. Yeah, I think that would have been interesting. I would love to know what the... Because he says it's a disastrous call, right? This could be... This is one side of the story. What does he mean by disastrous? Del Toro is the kind of person who loves to put his own spin and imagination on an IP.

42:15So is it disastrous because the IP holder wanted something closer to the game? or is it disastrous because what they wanted was an absolutely stupid movie? It's hard to say what the reason is. This is a creator after all and we can take his word for it and assume that the bad end of the call was because of whoever was on the other side making the calls around the movie. But there's just as much chance that Del Toro wanted to make about a bunch of different freaks and make it a very different type of movie. I imagine not, but I would love to know what the kind of conversation, what the dynamic there was.

42:53Because it does sound like a Bioshock movie from him was perfect. But also, would he want to make a Bioshock movie in his own way and tell a story that is his own and his style? Which could end up being not a Bioshock movie in a lot of ways. So it's hard to say, you know. Yeah, and I imagine this was probably near when Bioshock came out, maybe a little bit after when Bioshock came out.

43:20Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And video game movies were different back then. Oh, yeah, they were. Video game movies were trash back then. And so I could totally imagine the struggle. I wonder if it's in the conversation of, hey, can you line this up with Bioshock, with a Bioshock release? Yeah, we have Bioshock 2 coming out. Can you make the movie come out then? Or we have Bioshock Infinite coming out. Or maybe they were like, yo, can you make a Bioshock Infinite movie and not a Bioshock movie? Like, I'm sure there were some dumb conversations that were had. I mean, it could also be like the content was being controlled in a way.

43:50Because obviously the political elements of Bioshock are very obvious. Yeah. It's Ayn Randian and there's philosophies that the creators espouse through that game. And I imagine that's something that appealed to Del Toro in a significant way because games weren't doing much of that. And that was what made Bioshock so popular and so different for a really long time in that it delved into philosophy and the idea and mixed it with this wild fantasy universe that they created that is also part horror, part body horror, etc, etc. So it could be a situation where also, like we're speculating again, but he might have wanted to lean into those kind of philosophies a little harder and make it more perceptible for movie-going audiences.

44:33And Lord knows Hollywood execs don't like the idea of politics in their movies, unless it's a very specific type of politics, which is absolutely diabolical and rancid. But it could be something along those lines as well. It's hard to say. Either way, it's a shame we're not getting it.

44:49Blessing Adeoye Jr.:In chat, Everything is Entertainment says, I don't think Del Toro would have made a trash adaptation. And to be clear, I'm not saying that Del Toro, with Del Toro's freedom of creativity and all that, would have made a trash adaptation. I'm saying the conditions in which video game movies were created back in the day consistently led to very bad movies. And so I don't know where I think I'm sure every story is different for why those video game adaptations always came out bad. But I would imagine that Del Toro dealing with the forces that were take two or whoever he's talking to on their creative team.

45:24Blessing Adeoye Jr.:He was probably like, oh, this is fucking no. like whatever it is in those processes to get these movies made were not conducive to good movies here's my prediction what's that? A few years from now Del Toro will be attached to a Kojima movie I think that's a really good prediction, I think so because it makes too much sense they're in the same cinematic universe create a cinematic universe like they're both together and it feels like Odi Nock is a good opportunity for him to collaborate with Jordan Peele and Kojima, make a horror game. It's almost like the PT, Junji Ito, kind of the all-star team of horror or movie makers coming together.

46:08This will be the new generation of that.

46:09Blessing Adeoye Jr.:See, I think there's going to be so many, not so many, I think there's going to be multiple different chapters of OD, and I think they're all going to have different creators. Ancology series, yeah. Yeah, yeah, exactly. So OD Knock being Jordan Peele, OD dash whatever, od uh who's there yeah it can be del toro and od orange you know or orange yeah get zach craig in there yeah fuck what's the knock knock joke that i'm fucking up right now knock knock who's there orange orange who aren't you glad i didn't say banana that's what it was anyway no it's banana i'm moving on i'm moving on story number four sonic boss believes the series is only halfway to his potential.

46:53Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Oh, God. Oh, man. Andy Robinson at VGC. Sonic boss Takashi Lizuka. No. Lizuka. Takashi Izuka. I keep fucking it up because the capital I looks like an L to me. Takashi Izuka has said he believes the franchise is only halfway to reaching his full potential. Horrifying statement. We fucking did it. Let's go, everybody. Let's go, everybody. We're only halfway there. After a Sega licensing exec suggested the company is focusing on appealing to underserved demographics. Since the first Sonic film was released in 2020, it's become a billion dollar movie franchise. Sonic also now generates over one billion dollars annually through licensing alone, according to Sega, a remarkable feat for a franchise the company allegedly once wanted to cancel.

47:39Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Speaking in the latest issue of Japanese magazine, Continue, transcribed by VGC, Izuka was asked for his outlook on the future of the Sonic franchise following this year's 35th anniversary. Quote, to be honest, we believe that Sonic is still only halfway to reaching its full potential, he said. When we created the first Sonic the Hedgehog, the development team at the time used to say, let's aim for Disney. When I first joined Sega, I was also told to dream big. Things like, use Sonic to surpass Disney, and one day we'll build a theme park. I love this little fucking hedgehog so much, man. Use Sonic to surpass Disney.

48:23Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And I still think he can. Quote, 35 years have passed, but we haven't quite gotten there yet. Now that we've brought the film to life, we want to share the appeal of Sonic with even more people who haven't yet played the Sonic game series. End quote. Speaking to Licensed Global, Sega's VP of Licensing and Partnerships, Alex Gomez, recently claimed that the company was focusing on appealing to underserved demographics of fans, including women. Quote, Sonic was once considered a boy's property, but we've branded, sorry, we've branched out so much through games, films, TV, and consumer products to reach new audiences, he said.

49:00Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Now it is considered a true family brand with something for everyone. However, the young adult female audience is an interesting space for us with potential for creative and compelling programs. Our female fans are among the biggest Sonic fans, eager to express their fandom in fun and creative ways. Strategically, we want to make sure they know that we are thinking of them and their likes and preferences, specifically as we create consumer product programs for the future. And we know from the past programs such as fashion and makeup collabs, jewelry, and more, that there is certainly an appetite in this space.

49:33Blessing Adeoye Jr.:End quote. This is what I'll say. This is an incredible story. This is what I'll say. Make the chow garden. You know. Animal Crossing. Make it Animal Crossing. You know the demographic you're trying to speak to. And I say this as a Sonic fan who knows plenty of other Sonic fans. There's a surprising amount of women that love Sonic. Women love Sonic. And, like, I can name them. I can name names. They love Sonic. And do you know what they ask for? It's the Chow Garden. Do it for them. Use it to surpass Disney. Surpass Disney in making Chow Garden. It reminds me of, like, a weapon to surpass Metal Gear.

50:14Oh, my God. I just think of like Ser Hilanthropus. It's like rising up like Metal Sonic, just floating in the background with Eli, just like stealing him away. Come on. Oh my God. Come on. Make a Metal Gear Sonic game. Make a fucking make a,

50:27Blessing Adeoye Jr.:they do have a Sonic mech basically. Yeah. They got mech and Sonic in there. Let's do it. It's crazy. I just love that quote. Use Sonic to surpass Disney. But yes, no, there's plenty. I agree with everything in this article. Not the surprise Disney part. Although maybe one day. You never know. Hell no. You never know. You know what I mean? I would love to see it. I would absolutely. I'm on board. Imagine you turn on the TV. You go to Channel 57. And it's not Disney Channel. It's the Sonic Channel. And it's Sonic and Friends. And the next program is the House of Sonic. You know what I mean? You turn on the next thing.

51:11Blessing Adeoye Jr.:And it's fucking, I don't know. is the Tails and Amy Rose show. This is crazy. Robotnik doing like a Guy Fieri style food show. It's big. That's a raven, but it's Big the Cat. Or Silver. Actually, Silver would make more sense in that role. Amy's got like a talk show like Kelly Clarkson. Come on. Come on. Let's go, man. What's going on? We can do this. Let's program your Sonic TV channel. Story number five. You know what? Story number five was going to be big news, but I'm going to turn it into something smaller. the tiniest news I needed to know about. Where would I go for that, Tam? You'd go to our last story, the Wii News channel, where we cover all the small news items you need to know about.

51:53Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Story number five is Wii News. Story number five originally was going to be Xbox about how they revealed the Gears of War Lancer pizza cutter. Nobody cares, man. And it immediately sold out, but we're running late in the show, and I have to go to the doctor. And so this was probably meant to be small news anyway. I was trying to make it a fun bit. But yeah, they partnered with a pizza chain to release the Gears of War E-Day pizza cutter based on the Lancer in Gears of War. It's sold out. But it looks pretty neat. Right now, Kevin's showing it if you're watching the video. Fair play. That's a lot cooler than I thought it would look like.

52:26Oh, that's pretty neat. I like this. Yeah, that's fair enough. Where do you get these? Oh, they're sold out. They're sold out. They're sold out. Great.

52:32Blessing Adeoye Jr.:More weird news for you. From Gamatsu, free-to-play open-world survival game Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch for iOS and Android on October 29th. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Splintered Fate has sold 1.5 million copies. And Remothered Tormented Fathers. Read the full name, please. Remothered Tormented Fathers Remastered. And? And Remothered Broken Porcelain Remastered launched in Q1 2027. Why are those games? I'm glad we needed the Q1 announcement. Remothered Tormented Fathers. What is going on here, man? Man, that sounds like... Actually, never mind. Sounds like someone needs to go to family court.

53:14Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Honestly. Tim, I'm going to take you back to the Super Chats, where you write in and we talk about your Super Chats. SunWest writes in and says, I've been loving the rematch cross-Blue Lock collab. Oh. You seen this? Yeah, I've seen it. I've not experienced it, but I've seen it. It's very cool. I'm getting a lot of TikTok ads about it, and I would like to go back. You were a rematch enjoyer, so... Dude, I was a big rematch enjoyer. But they did this too late, in my opinion. Yeah, it is a bit late. I feel like they should have capitalized a little closer to release. Get some Inazuma 11 crossovers, you know?

53:45Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Yeah. Blue Lock. I don't know. Go crazy. Captain Tsubasa. Yeah. Whatever. Just stick some Haikyuu characters in there. Demon Hacker says, does the Witcher cast promise included DLC? No. Because there's no shot that in the next month, me and Greg are going to get to Witcher 3, Blood and Wine, and Hearts of Stone. But I want to get to those. Hearts of Stone is incredible. See, I hear both of them are so good. They're both excellent, but Hearts of Stone, I think, is awesome. But yeah, I want to play Songs of the Past when that launches next year, and so I do want to play the other DLC as well. You need to find Dandelion first.

54:21That's what you want to do if you want to hear those Songs of the Past.

54:23Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I'm not that far away from finding Dandelion. I think I'm close to catching up because I'm about to head to Novigrad now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. David Flores says, I would love a Guillermo del Toro Zelda movie. I imagine it would be something like NeverEnding Story or Legend. Hmm. Yeah, that would be interesting. I would take that. Yeah. Or just give him Mario. I imagine what he would make is the old Mario movie, the live-action one. Give Guillermo Luigi's Mansion. Oh, that's a great idea. Let's get weird. Yeah. Hello. And then Sergio writes in and says, Bless, thoughts on EPL confirming Man City cheated?

55:01Blessing Adeoye Jr.:You think I'm a different kind of person. Oh, no. My cousin sent me this, And my first thought was, you think I'm a different kind of person. Yeah. But then I started reading, and it sounds like the biggest scandal in football in maybe history. Really? It sounds insane. But also, we are in like an age of good scandals. We just had the Kawhi Leonard scandal, which was amazing. Really good. My man was getting paid off the books. Oh, yes. Yes. Backdoor. I remember hearing about this. Yeah. So it's a good time, you know. It's a good time to be a scandal in the sports world. Good time to get into scandals.

55:33Listen, they're just creating scripts for future movies right now. This is the administration for it.

55:37Blessing Adeoye Jr.:You know what I mean? Three years from now, there will be a Kawhi Leonard scandal movie, and then there will be a Manchester City scandal movie. Trust me. Man, I cannot wait. By Guillermo del Toro. Let's hop into You're Wrong, where you write in and let us know what we got wrong, as we got it wrong, so you can correct it for those watching later on YouTube and listening later on podcast services around the globe. Mortal World Hype writes in with our only You're Wrong and says, At the top of the show, Bless said it's Wednesday. It's Tuesday. No lie, though. I was gaslit and almost ran out to move my car for street sweeping.

56:07Blessing Adeoye Jr.:I am sorry, everybody. I totally thought it was Wednesday. I thought it was Wednesday for a second. It feels like Wednesday to me. Because you said it was, and I was like, I can't. I believe everything blesses. Yeah, that is my bad, everybody. It is Tuesday, and that means we have four more days left in the week. Goddamn. Disgusting. Tam, thank you so much for joining me on this episode. Thank you for having me. What you got going on right now that people can check out? You can find some of my work at GameSpot. You can also find me on YouTube, Tamor H. I'm doing regular videos over there. And I am also writing stuff at Bonfire Sit, which you are also including on player.gg.

56:40Yeah. Hidden gem. Hidden gem. My blog. Oh, yeah. My one is called Bonfire Sit. And, yeah, there's a podcast feed for that as well. And come follow me on YouTube. I'm grinding it out there. You're grinding on YouTube? Oh, I'm grinding on YouTube.

56:54Blessing Adeoye Jr.:Oh, I got to subscribe to Tim. Oh, whoa. Send me those super chats. Let's go. we got more content coming at you for the rest of the day, including our games cast right after this, which is going to be our Control Resonant spoiler cast, which I sadly have to miss because my eyelid is in so much pain. So I got to go to the doctor. Eyes infected by the hiss. The hiss has gotten to me. But I'll be listening because, man, oh, man, do I love Control Resonant and do I want to hear people talk about spoilers in that game. So that's happening right after this, and then we got more content coming at you after that.

57:29Blessing Adeoye Jr.:But until next time, Game Daily. Shake my hand.
