Blockbusters (Pacdude 2024) - First playings

Pacdude did a thing and made a "new" game (he DID have a Blockbusters goldrun before, but there was no trivia or anything involved besides luck .... if i'm remembering right)
this is, btw, locked behind Patreon... but don't be like that one dude i had to block in the comments prior to the editing of this info to remove the "mystery" aspects
WARNING: AI VOICES USED IN-GAME

[@AdamJ617]

I’ve been interested lately in AI generating voices. Any ideas?

[@smashwhammy]

i'm actually conflicted, because of one of the Twitch streamers i sometimes watch being a voice actress that would be affected negatively by these AI voices that's becoming more widely used (She's been, among other roles for the franchise, Jessie from Team Rocket in the English dub of the Pokemon anime prior to the anime finally ending the Ash & Pika saga)

@@smashwhammy If it's to substitute someone and take a way a job that's one thing. But if you want to replicate a deceased person for a game or video like this one with Bill Cullen or have an AI Rod Roddy or Gene Wood announce a PC game show or Vin Scully doing play by play on MLB The Show or John Summerall on Madden then I'm all for it!

looks fun

[@jordanwhitehead8600]

Because while this looks nice

[@smashwhammy]

to the antisemitic troll who STILL can't let go of his anger towards the game show fandom after a decade+.... at least Pacdude LETS us play his stuff, even IF it's behind Patreon and JRJ has a valid reason for not doing so, he's involved in the production of game shows themselves and is entrusted with confidential material (music/sfx, master tapes of episodes, etc)

[@jordanwhitehead8600]

Where did this game come from

[@smashwhammy]

...i literally put a plug in the middle of the video on that exact thing

[@smashwhammy]

all i can say is... paitence it'll be mentioned IN THE DAMN VIDEO

[@JohnathanWilliamson849]

Pacdude is irl a wacky person with how he acts on twitter. I wouldn't support him or his website.

[@smashwhammy]

let me guess, this has to do with political views? no thank, keep that kinda talk outta here

[@JohnathanWilliamson849]

@@smashwhammy alright sorry about that

[@jcoday93]

This is not the place for politics… that has no place in this conversation. We should be focusing on game shows. I for one recently subscribed to Pacdude’s Patreon, and I have been very happy with what he has put out; particularly the presentation software for Pyramid. Can’t wait to see what else he comes up with!!

[@JohnathanWilliamson849]

​@@jcoday93 To be honest his software is not that great, just very amateurish. Also he celebrated someone's death.
