Whilst holding on to my sister's hand, I remember her fingers gripped so tightly in mine that her nails drew blood until I too dark. Too dark for Fable. Lost her grip, but she stayed away. does stick in the memory a bit. Yeah, I know why you're here. Is fable. You want to talk about them? Facial animations were too good. You ever seen a legend in the flesh? Well, that power, how do they use it? Killing mindless beasts, fighting petty villains. None of that matters. Look guilt out. A real hero knows how to wield power. They're a waste of time and trivialities. You're back and dressed like a [ __ ] Got more important things to worry about than vegetables. A hero knows how to live with their choices. O. What the [ __ ] was that? I was just just sent my brother into the infinite [ __ ] ABYSS WITHOUT EVEN ASKING PERMISSION. Such language. I would never hear this much [ __ ] language. Guilty. Oh, I told you what I told them. Albian is broken and I'm going to mend it. Albian doesn't need heroes. It needs a hero. You're a monster.

Let's go, KI. Come on. Let's go. Ki. Oh, it's Halo remix the story. Halo the chief stuff of legends. But that's not the story I'm telling today, Sarge. This one you haven't heard. Upstairs simple enough. Drop in, grab the goods, get out before anyone noticed. Well, guess what? They noticed. Halo zero. Now you ready to get to it? You serve long enough. You learn to read a battlefield. This place more of a freak show. And trust me, I know freaky. Have you enjoyed your stay so far, Demon? Sorry to interrupt, but we're on the clock. The thing with simple jobs is they always get complicated. The plans change, odds get worse. My advice, bring a Spartan. Three missions, prequel missions. Whoa. Wait. That was it. Cool. Gee, you ever get tired of being the strong almost silent type? Interesting. So, it's just more to campaign evolve than the campaign being the campaign. Huh, that's cool. I still want to play that with the guys. Four player campaign co-op would be fun. There's something on this island. It's like it calls to me. You and my father found that island thanks to me. There's more to this than you understand. These are the plague deves. I've proven myself. Have you? Have you really? A sword keeps you alive. A dagger wins the fight. This doesn't look like a walking around in kind of game only. The final confrontation is about to begin. Where are the other? Hell, suddenly it's rise. Son of Rome. They're all dead. Move. But you couldn't have said, "Hey, Lenny, you know those ancient death curse rumors? Well, maybe they're true. Sit in a plague tale legacy." Huh. Huh. That didn't look bad. Yeah, Blake Tale was interesting, too. You ever heard of the Midnight Channel? [music] Domino might have been on that Midnight Channel before she died, too. Chad, this game's based on that fighting game, right? Right. Now, where are this fighting game was so popular that they made like an RPG around it? Totally different. This one like 10 years later, they finally made a game out of that Persona 4 Arena fighting game. Of it to wield a Persona is to finally dude. Everyone loved those characters so much. About time they made a real game out of Strengthened through bombs. Doesn't it sound cool? Someone had to see that. I'm glad it was you. Was that supposed to be him? Good times never seem to last long, do they? I hate you sneaky stupid bully jerk. I can't wait chat. I think I watched 90% of this game. Come on, don't call me that. Because of Giant Bomb. Is this the right one? Well, then that means senpai got killed by her other self. Is this the right one? Get out of here. The giant bomb playthrough back from the mid 2000s. The endurance run. Yes. Pretend I'm not Ria. Yeah, I didn't I don't know if I watched all of it, but I secondhand watched it cuz I listened to a lot of it at work. I treated it like a podcast. All right, which means that we also got to catch whoever's talking before podcasts were really big. I think I'd like to help, too. I'm not running away from this. Well, and I have no problem taking down shadows. It's over. So, yeah, I'll be counting on you, partner. That was a hood classic. Yeah, it was. Was it Jeff and Vinnie the whole time back then? Yeah. Persona. A lot of stuff coming out next early next year. Holy heck, dude. There's a lot early 2027. Another Xbox Game Studios game. Damn, another state of decay. Hey, six. My friends and I used to argue about what ended the world. A weapon, a virus, something worse. Started in quiet towns, empty roads, places the world forgot. Sunset Overdrive 2 looking pretty bleak. Guys, I found a nest. These survivors found each other, built walls, pushed back against the night. We'll always have each other's back because the world has become more dangerous. State of State of Decay was like the co-op multiplayer zombie survival game, The dead aren't just wandering anymore. They hunt. Steve liked this one. He did. In the end, it doesn't matter what you believe. I think what I think of zombie multiplayer games is that when the is what other people think of fighting games, right? So do we. Like other people look at fighting games and they all look like the exact same to them. And I look at like zombie multiplayer games and I'm kind of like, oh yeah. I think to the uneducated, you know, which in this case is me. Left five dead, five forehead. Left five dead, five head. Left five head. I like left five head. On the Sea of Thieves, there have BEEN PLENTY OF GRAND ADVENTURES. But what if you could make your own Sea of Thieves experience with our new free update, CUSTOM SEAS? YOU CAN. LET ME EXPLAIN. YOU can create new ways to play, LIKE ROBBO ROYALE, WHERE SMALL BUT bloodthirsty crews juke it out in a furious battle to the death. Just remember to watch out for explosive barrels. Oh, I'm sure they're fine [clears throat] or skeleton. Any chance of Devil May Cry here? The shooter with the highest score wins. Think the chance of anything Capcom is low. and these and one OF THOSE AND ABSOLUTELY LOADS OF THESE. AND WELL, you get the idea. YOU COULD CREATE A CINEMATIC masterpiece with enhanced camera tools. YOU COULD SHOW ROMANCE, ACTION, or tragedy. OR MAYBE JUST SHOW THE WORLD FROM A WHOLE NEW PERSPECTIVE. Or you could even JUST CREATE A PLACE TO HANG. Forgot that Devil May Cry 5 was revealed at Xbox showcase. Or you could come together for a party. No, I didn't forget. Want somewhere you can just kick back? That was also multiple executives ago and nearly a decade. Pursuits may be where I definitely didn't forget to the seas. THERE'S A WHOLE NEW WORLD OF POSSIBILITY. What I didn't what I did remember was that the lead Devil May Cry dude left Capcom about a year ago, [laughter] made his own studio up to and took a bunch of Capcom devs that made Devil May Cry with him. [laughter] So there's going to be a little bit of time till that [ __ ] happens. There is a liar in these tunnels. They call him Fur. But that is not your name. Metro. Your name is Hunter. As a Spartan, you were a legend. You stood for something. But where are the Spartans now? to protect the metro from you. You promised a brighter future. Flies for people. Now the Norai spreads tyranny in your name. You swore to crush the enemy, to face them head on, and guide the metro to the light. graphics. But darkness consumes you, spreads like a plague, beats you from within. Bats. Every step and every move grounds you deeper in lies. Your lies. And now, hunter, that legendary Spartan is gone. Turn to ash. I won't stop. Until the turer burns with him. This look really good. Like what is what is Metro Chat? Is it like simulation fantasy? That's a cool that's cool ass box art. Holy [ __ ] It's like super realistic but like fantasy, World premiere. Alternate reality fantasy. Yeah, this isn't crazy taxi. I already like this. It's like Resident Evil, but you're a bird. Is that a falling star? Bad magpie. That game was cute. Wow. That game was cute. Damn. Crazy Taxi looking a lot different. Neo3 expansion. Yeah, Neo3 DLC. Maybe I got to beat this game now. Suit of the elixir of immortality. A champion rises, destined to quell the chaos of this senseless cycle. No, Neo3 is out. Came out earlier this year. It's extremely good.

The robot should have been You jumped 25 years back in time. With a big mouth. It's 1867, give or take. Could you laugh a be you decrepit old soak trailer is impressive how many things are in it nothing's ever given to folk like us especially not the future this game looks like if Somebody asked from an executive level.

But before we do, one franchise that has been with us from the beginning is Call of Duty. Now it's bigger than ever with a new Modern Warfare later this year and a movie on the way. Last month, the teams at Infinity Ward and Activision gave us a glimpse of the story and gameplay. Today, they are back with a first look at DMZ, re-imagined in a way that only Call of Duty can deliver. dude, they literally have like every genre except a fighting game. What executives kid got their ass beat when they went online? Which one? Now we're never doing this [ __ ] again. Inside the mall is a set of black files carrying bounty intel on a high value target. Locate the files and eliminate the HVT. Expect contact. HD may be in the area anyone after that intel. Jeez, place is huge. It's dark as hell. That's why you got MVGs, man. Hey, I'm going to head downstairs real quick. See if there's any weapons or gear laying around. No, it's a negative. That's not why we're here. I'm going to be fine. It's only going to take two seconds. I say again, that's a negative. Okay, get your ass upstairs. Damn, he's down. Let's go help him. Hell no. That's on him. He got shot in the face, my dude. Copy. Where are we at on the intel? Got it. Let's find that HVT. Everything's a Tarov. Overall, letting that intel compromise your location. Enemies are alerted to your position. You know we're here. Damn. [ __ ] find that. Hey, hold up. What's up? Hey, you good, man? Yeah, you're all shoot. Give me cover fire now. are making a lot of noise. Be aware more enemy hostiles are now hunting your position. Was that the HVT? [ __ ] the HVT. Let's just go to exploit. Oh, [ __ ] I got you, man. This is a confusing trailer to me. You good? Yep. All right, let me get some ammo. Oh, hell. It's like it's portraying DMZ, you know, like a Tarov like like this is a unique idea like, oh, you're unfamiliar with how this is, you know, when these things have been around for like seven years. Like it's weird for them to present the game in this way, like longer, you know? It's odd to present the game in this way. It's an extraction shooter like Tarov. That's exactly what I'm saying is that there's a billion extraction games nowadays. This is being presented in a way that is like you've never seen extraction like this like right like you've never seen an extraction shooter like this and it just looks like copy medical very odd choice. This looks like every other extraction shooter. Who knows? Maybe it'll be fun as [ __ ] Yeah. From all like, you know, from all the acting coms and all that stuff. Damn. Is it Are they going to get ganked right before they get on the extraction? No. This is unrealistic. This is very unrealistic. They didn't get killed when they were three steps away from the extraction and then have all their [ __ ] stolen. See, this is cool. I almost wish they just did this instead. Just make it a cinematic trailer. That was weird. That was weird. I don't know. I think the thing at the end was kind of neat. Show like all the features and stuff that DMZ will have. I think that's kind of neat. Um, all right. That was the Xbox show chat. I can't say for much longer. There was some good stuff here. I'm going to give him credit. There's some good stuff here and I can't wait for the Eday thing. This I think Gears actually looks quite good though. Um, not to talk [ __ ] about it. Uh, [laughter] I read that as something very I literally chat I in in very quick passing, let me go back and see what I saw. I read this as erect day. [laughter] [gasps] E I'm like erect day. I was like what did I just Oh, e day to not Gears of War. Erect day. [laughter] Sorry. Where's the crazy taxi [ __ ] Huh? Where is it? I need my crazy taxi [ __ ] Uh Steam has crazy taxi.

Okay, I get it. I want to see a Pizza Hut. Look at the Sonic Adventure level chat based on nothing else. Uh, wow. Sea lion wararf livey lobsters. Hey, R&B station.

AI generated content disclosure. The developers describe how their game uses AI. We utilize generative AI as a support tool for developers aim to provide better content to our users and developers to focus more creative tasks. We have used such generative AI support tools during the developers in the game. Wait a minute. So what was if used such generate AI support tools during development? No AI was used in reference to the performers in the game. I'm confused about what the heck that what does that mean? Does that mean it was used at one point and then it's not in the final game? Weird. Uh I'm so confused. Yeah. It is it referencing that it is not present in the final game itself? AI voices for characters. What? I don't I don't understand. I would like I would hopefully like uh maybe it's for all uh that would even suck if it was all the passengers and things like that. AI voice placeholders. Um, if it means that there was used at some point in development and then the final game does not have that stuff, then cool. We use such generated se tools during development, but no AI was used in reference to the perform. I'm so confused. It's worded so weird. It's worded so weird. Wonder if it's like a placeholder thing. It's mad vague. Yeah. I wonder if somebody if we can get more information on that. Either way, um, if it's a thing where it's like, yeah, most games have used it in support, I'm not, as long as it is not represented in the final game itself, you know, I'm okay with that cuz I already think this looks really good. Uh, and wow, wait, what's the multiplayer side again? Show off your outrageous driving skills against your friends or online competitors around the world and across platforms. So, no idea how this is going to work online. And Crazy Taxi has never had multiplayer, like actual multiplayer. I don't know. They vibe coded Crazy Taxi. I need to play it. I'll immed You'll immediately know, Chad, if it's vibe coded if you play it. That will be a big thing. Score competition. Yeah. Is that going to be score affair? This was the biggest game of the show for me. I've been waiting for this [ __ ] for so long. I'm curious if we can get some actual uh clarification on these things. This is similar in the way that Capcom is doing things, which is uh for a lot of development support to allow other [ __ ] to happen. Yeah. Yeah. Weird. Very weird. I thought the showcase wasn't bad. I thought the showcase was like a seven. It for for a showcase that seemed like it might not have much. Uh they ended up having quite a bit, right? They ended up having quite a bit of stuff. So, I thought it wasn't there's I mean, granted, not everything was for me. I got something that was very much in my boat. Um, I think for some of people some people could think this was like a five and I can see some people seeing it even being like an eight. For me, it was like it was like a six or a seven. Anyway, Chad, thank you. I'll be back. I'll let you guys know. Uh, thank you for all the support. We got to talk about maybe Final Fantasy at some point and uh yeah, hopefully I find out more.
