Video games are having a negative affect on my children!
What? No, I don’t pay attention to what they’re playing, why do you ask?
32:13 – Wacky survey shows parents don’t pay attention to kids’ gaming, notice bad behavior, don’t think it has anything to do with games, took games away anyway, gave them back because kids threw a fit, and fear their kids may be gaming addicts!
57:09 – Nintendo wants 20 – 30 new indie games on Switch every week!
1:03:11 – We laugh at the poorly written character descriptions from the purported new Mortal Kombat movie

7:03 PMHaven’t seen anything since Deadpool 2
7:04 PMyes I am part of the reason movie theaters are dying in the US, and proud of it.
7:06 PMShould give Arrow a chance but stop after season 2.
7:07 PMFirst 2 were incredible and it was all downhill from there.
7:09 PMParappa is very unforgiving in its difficulty.
7:12 PMjust rebind them, the ps4 supports rebinding at the os lvl
7:12 PMThere was a RockBand arcade game that was that way as well.
7:13 PMOn PSN and XBLA
7:13 PMlol
7:14 PMyou do hate vocaloids dont you
7:14 PMI get it, doesnt appeal to everyone
7:23 PM“Eisen”. It actually sounds kinda German. ol
7:25 PMI actually got Meme’d here from one of your very old videos. What’s this about? I wanna be involved in some way shape or form!
7:26 PMThis is just a podcast where we talk about super important things like, uh… you know, video games and stuff.
7:26 PMNeed to get back into Zelda
7:27 PMMe or you?
7:27 PMBoth of us
7:27 PMI tend to be prity anti moble
7:27 PMI have a plan! (I’ll talk about it later.)

7:28 PMzelda botw is open world imersive sim, I totaly understand why he doesnt like it
7:28 PMI don’t like it because I was super offended by Link’s prominent vagina bones!
7:29 PMlol
7:29 PMOne thing I already like about this Stream is that it’s only like 5 seconds delayed. In most People’s Streams I watch it’s like 10 seconds, which get’s confusing sometimes. Whoop!
7:29 PMomg ! what a hair cut !…
7:29 PMnice!…
7:31 PMwas this on linux or windows?
7:32 PMwtf why was that setting on?
7:32 PMhave you tried petting it
7:33 PMis it windows or linux?
7:33 PMHave you tried upgrading your graphics card 😏
7:34 PMjust use windows, built in drivers
7:35 PMdoesnt shock me, I played a bunch of m rated games as a kid
7:35 PMall you need is 1100 to do a good servay, assuming methods are done right
7:36 PMfor a +-3 is only 1100 people
7:36 PM+ -3
7:38 PMNot shocking, I used to work at GameStop and I’d tell a parent about the content of an M rated game and 95% would still buy the game for their 8 yr old.
7:38 PMI mean come on game age ratings are so out of wack. there are a bunch of m games that realy should be if they were movies, alot of m games would be pg13
7:40 PMI mean come on deablo 2 was rated m back in the day
7:40 PMIt is very tame by MK standards
7:41 PMalso no academic data back that up
7:42 PMThat was one of the bissest issues with Australias game rating system before the R rating. Stuff like GTA had to make tiny changes to bump the rating down to appease the OFLC
7:43 PMThe OFLC even admitter the rating system is not up to date as with the We happy few Rating reversal
7:43 PMhate to tell you ezk thats true in the US. even the south park creators made the cast kids just to point that out
7:46 PMZach that’s profiling. You don’t know they might have has a really good golf session
7:48 PMA very dark ninja
7:48 PMthis is why parental controls exist for game consoles
7:49 PMEven Bowser knows he needs to control Bower Jr playtime
7:49 PMmaybe its not the M rated games, but the parents
7:49 PMthe age of appeasement
7:50 PMalso as a number of people who research the subject, said and I qoute “I would be more concerned about the teenager not playing gta, than the ones that are”
7:51 PMWhen they start acting like that you ground them and take something else away.
7:57 PMboth the ps4 and xb1 have settings that deable voice chat with people that arent on freinds list
