Game Scoop! 720: I Will Survive

[@chadeberhart9734]

Is it just me or does Justin not play the majority of big games they talk about?

[@robotjunkie3764]

He’s too busy painting his Warcraft figurines

[@maxducoudray]

Yeah he’s talked about that not being his favorite genre.

[@S1X_Bucks]

It would shock a lot of people at how many people in video games media don't play games.

[@robotjunkie3764]

@@S1X_Bucks or know much about it ? It amazes me watching the podcasts how little they know sometimes

[@Monolith64]

Who cares?

[@MoFoTRex93]

Mark needs to be on more podcasts! Miss you on Beyond!

[@chadeberhart9734]

Agreed! Mark is great.

[@SandF3DPrinting]

Really hoping one day to watch game scoop back in the studio

[@jacobpro_]

Thank you, someone else said it. In person energy is unmatched. Is NOT the same doing a zoom call.

[@oursleepinggiant]

as someone who never got into WoW, it's still so awesome to hear people nerd out about games they love

[@funzbunz]

What's the music at the end?

[@IGNGames]

Tetris on CD-i - Daemon

[@daithimurray683]

They did not react to the innuendos at all but it was definitely intentional 😂. "It looks big in your hands." "Some like it thick."

[@Anotherperson81]

As a UK resident, the blocked deal is a worry about how the future of gaming will be for our availability/ access if the deal goes ahead and excludes us as a market. I’m not interested in cloud gaming right now …. Who is?!? Stadia folded already ….

[@toot1st105]

The CMA are completely deluded if they think some UK company will bother to compete in the cloud gaming market let alone it increasing by 1000% in the next ten years the only ones that can afford the infrastructure even Google pulled out, with microsoft there isn't a cloud gaming industry

[@aflashylege]

10 quid for all the games or 70 quid each. The CMA punishing it's own citizens during a time of economic hardship.

[@toot1st105]

@Harvey Kent why dont they just buy 40% of their shares and make a deal to put cod and all other games on gamepass for next 10 years CMA cant do anything about that!

[@rebell813]

36:07 WHAT IS HAPPENING 🤣

[@jameswalt1]

Immediately buying the Tetris CDi vinyl soundtrack - thank you Daemon!!

[@jameswalt1]

$100 later, done!

[@andymcisaac4050]

That's the podcast we're on!

[@mekman4]

Great Stuff, as always! Scoop!

[@JesusLovesAll]

It's obvious they completely avoided talking about Tears of the Kingdom because it would be too hard to avoid hinting at the fact that Sam's in the middle of right now playing the final game as the reviewer for it.

[@BigKurzMD]

Avoiding hinting? They basically said that was the case at the beginning of the episode. Something about Sam “crying over a city. “

[@jonathanirwin9566]

Sam is too busy “crying over a realm” was absolutely not trying to avoid it lol

[@adriandiaz593]

How can anybody hate Mark?!

[@DougyFreshGames]

37:00 is tight. Nice pick Daemon, very 80’s detective!

[@ChaosKnight7000]

It's "Level 0" from the Tetris CD-i game. A great track.

[@Squatchlif]

What’s the outro song?

[@lesliealvarado3257]

OH MY HOLLY HYLIAN GODDESSES! IS SAM REVIEWING ToTK? That would be great! Scoop from Costa Rica.

[@johnsolo247]

Fun Fact Scoopers: You actually CAN choke the Rancor with bones in the arena.

[@nathanpayson9859]

The difficulty that matches eldin ring is definitely the grandmaster difficulty, and its not easy (but very satifsfying).

[@mikaelpage88]

At times even grandmaster feels easy. Feel like it's reg hard.

[@nathanpayson9859]

@Mookie at times you fight a corridor of weak enemies and its easy for sure, but when it's hard, it is a challenge for sure.

[@abcvideoyoutuization]

Do you still watch comments for the first hour after the release?

[@mickael486]

Who? Both Colin and Mark will occasionally throw us a response. Especially if Mark and Justin have one of their classic disagreements. 😁

Well Scoop crew at 8:20, yoU actually CAN launch a bone into his mouth to stunt him for few secs :)

[@rickytheplatypus1554]

Came looking for this comment

[@uzzyo]

Justin seems to think if Microsoft and ABK ignore the CMA's ruling then Xbox won't be able to operate in the UK but if that were to happen it's actually MICROSOFT that would be blocked from the UK market and that's a whole different beast altogether. Completely untenable for MS.

[@kevinl6136]

The song at the end has earthbound vibes

[@elpiquetegames787]

Mark is back!! Let’s go!!🔥

[@PoppinRods]

The day one patch did not fix the performance issues at all. To say that it did is misleading and most likely part of the reason these developers keep releasing unfinished games. It may have made them slightly better but its still in an embarrassing state. There are times in performance mode where it basically has to dumb itself down to 1080P just to stay somewhere close to 60fps. If you want actual info on this, go watch Digital Foundries videos. They basically say that Respawn should be embarrassed in the way this game runs.

[@AmirLiberty]

Imagine spending $5000 only to play games worse than a $500 console.

[@jamievaughn1485]

No one is buying $5k PCs.

SAM'S REVIEWING TEARS OF THE KINGDOM‽

Saturday Scoop

[@gregcord3886]

Weekend scooooop!!!

[@jensen2310]

Jedi Survivor runs smoothly? Are we playing the same game?

[@Visionoflegacy]

On the topic of game buzz, it’s simply a matter of volume. The Horizon DLC is available to people who have finished the main campaign of Forbidden West PSVR is available to the PS5 owner interested in VR and with the financial means to afford it. You ask people within those groups about either of those products and buzz is high, but they aren’t meant to be mainstream products. Everything shouldn’t be discussed from a “failure” conversation tone just because “I’m not hearing about it”.

[@mattm7899]

Intelligent Systems also collaborates with Nintendo to developed their consoles and devkits

[@Kmaitland89]

Also, Dead Island is not next gen only.

[@mark_medina_ign4725]

Oh weird I thought it was cuz when I got it on PS5, usually it would give me a prompt asking which version I want to install, but for Dead Island 2, it only showed ps5. My mistake!

[@SirJabb0k]

Scoop! Great ep!

[@simpingaming3]

It’s not next gen only

[@Arikaiden]

Thank you Daemon

[@nathanpayson9859]

Justin, try the new expansion. Its one of Wow's best ever! You will really enjoy it!

Mark is going to start speed running Video Game 20 questions.

[@chucknowakowski6676]

We don’t need giant tech companies, we need innovation, and won’t get that with that merger, oh and segment earlier gloss over a game that is broke AGAIN and needs a huge day one patch, that not going to get better with a merger like that..

Some examples of bad CMA decisions: violating rules or duties, making factual or legal errors, being unreasonable or disproportionate, discriminating or retaliating. #CMA #competitionlaw

Nobody is allowed to say bad things about the last guardian. It was amazing.

Sony continues to buy game studios and pushes exclusives. How is that not horrible for consumers? Where are these agencies to stop that?

The CMA’s decision to block the MS-AB deal is flawed, irrational, and bad for UK innovation. It ignores the facts and the future of cloud gaming. #FreeTheDeal
