0:00 thank you [Music] welcome back to another careful boys we're very careful boys and today we are currently off the Record oh really can't trick this guy and today we're talking about we are so I was in the Discord the JK Discord check it out patreon eh you gotta be a patreon member to understand what you were talking about there's a little bit you have a cold [Laughter] somebody brought up what is the best video game of all time GTA has now nobody argue with me ████ you yeah you know what end the video that is true if you're if you're talking about best in terms of Revenue and Longevity you would no we're gonna go way more subjective here just yeah it has to say what they think okay let's go subject let's go yeah let's go ball time to you to you me

0:50 yeah stats not yeah ████ people yeah otherwise we're just like oh Minecraft has the most numbers can we start with who is the best video game player because I'm the worst so I'll give the most your answer would be I am the best Street Fighter oh that's a good my favorite one my favorite one is is the one where you can get Hulk up in there Street Fighter versus Capcom that one yup and then you could Marvel Capcom no no no so you're like you could be right here right and then you press a couple buttons and then it ████ switches out and another mother it's MVC

1:41 yeah Marvel's Capcom was the bomb that's still good they still compete professionally with that game yeah yeah we played it why didn't they make a Marvel vs DC Video Game oh it'll be the sickest ████ game because Marvel was like I don't want to ████ work with you guys because because Marvel will be carrying DC on their backs Superman well DC is against uh Mortal Kombat Joker what if you could play as Joker that'd be crazy yeah you can you can see he shoots a gun ████ but you choose a gun with a bang like Marvel versus DC is my that's my dream game that'd be that's one of her moves opens her top there's a there's like a Warner Brothers uh version now I don't know if it's out here super smash one it's all the IPS that wonder about multiverses yeah yeah

2:32 oh yeah that's like Smash Bros yeah yeah oh really LeBron James is one of the characters that's so dumb the ████ out really yeah yeah he throws a basketball at you Eric bows his voice is in that game oh cool a lot of the characters yeah do you guys remember Shaq Foo oh yes what's that arguably not a bad game not a bad game it's really stupid it was just like a fighting game but you're Shaq yeah and you fight like Intergalactic enemies like it's so crazy how about we do categories what's your guys's favorite games then your favorite games yeah categories might be more helpful because then it's more of a fun conversation all right yeah okay here's overall do overall first yeah overall first overall I would I would say like uh I would say Sims revolutionarily that game covers so much it's so deep and the data involved in it

3:22 is so like Limitless plus they opened up the uh ability to to mod it so the game it just lives forever yeah yeah they did open it up for GTA because GTA was airplane mode another one that's revolutionary is Counter-Strike dude Counter-Strike is a mod that's what's crazy is this right yeah of Half-Life right yeah so is Team Fortress I think yeah Wolfenstein was my first experience to that whole point of view well the science type the crazy thing is how Counter-Strike spawned an entire industry of PC cafes like being more popular isn't that crazy that's insane like it became a business model people bought computers they dim the lights yeah people got murdered you got shot by

4:12 gangsters yeah that was my first Obsession though where you stay like for hours on the computer was uh Warcraft oh yeah Warcraft and then Starcraft came out yeah and then ████ Command and Conquer Command and Conquer Empires all that ████ where you just build ████ armies yeah Pirates yeah hurricanes golden ████ chopped trees heck is crazy sifu you want to say that one no well I think my that's funny no that game is great though what Seafood he likes that what game is that it's just like a it's like a fighting you're like Kung Fu Master and you're just like going through like what would you call like a dungeon press L2 to kiss every time you like die you get older but if you're older you're better it's like it's like a homage like the old school like Hong Kong style the fighting super technical yeah yeah yeah yeah but

5:02 I think my favorite game what console is it on I think it's like PlayStation and Xbox everything my favorite game probably overall was probably Red Dead wow wait two the first one I haven't beat Red Dead Two the very first Red Dead yeah I love it I love Red Dead Redemption the story oh Red Dead Redemption wait it was red dead the first one's revolver oh I never played that one yeah but Red Dead Redemption is the that's the game changer for sure it's a sucky s█████ game is that Rockstar soap yeah but it's like pre they hadn't figured it out completely but John Marston Red Dead Redemption I just love the story and how like is the Mars does yeah dude it was it was just such a cool game it was like I was I was in high school or something I think it's it's brilliant yeah it's great but now I really like God of War I just I just finished it oh you're in his PS5 you got

5:53 the new one no no the first 2018 one okay that one is really good because I think nowadays like I'm not in a big like competitive gamer I think I like the story of it I think uh that's why I like GTA if you're like on offline mode you're just in story mode story mode crazy good it's like being in a movie and everyone's talking about the last of us and I tried playing The Last of Us for the first time like when I first got the PlayStation and I had headphones on and it was a little too scary eating my face and I was like this is ████ real scary like actual scary games are like really scary though what's the scariest game you played pacify that should freak me out that's why it's literally a horror game it's one where you're just like you're given puzzles and there's a house and you just

6:44 gotta figure out how to like get out of it but then if you don't then like ████ like like the ring girl type ████ with like hair will be like you don't get the puzzles right yeah and did you just hear it in your earphones you know what I mean it's crazy what's that game we used to play it was like slenderman slenderman yeah I don't like that either can you play dead space I was freaking the ████ out that's just scary I know I don't like it the the jump scares of the game Resident Evil was like that middle it was scary but like even that's too scary for me I'm too ████ there I'm ████ I'm a big ████ crowd ████ though yeah yeah I got into Metal Gear I ████ up dude that's my favorite I mean that's the freaking Metal Gear Symphony No your thought is my favorite game when I was a kid like I was too stupid for the OG metal gear and then I always die and ████ and I'm like ████ this game right I wanted to ████ do some Space Invaders or what ████ I

7:35 don't know Mario Brothers but then later on I think that tainted my view of metal gear when everyone else got into it I was like I ain't playing that ████ I see yeah and then I think Metal Gear got really good because the stories and everything and I never played it once metal gear Final Fantasy the two like big ████ games that everyone got into I never touched Metal Gear had a really cool function where it messed with your real life like um senses so like there was they put this thing in the game where like there's a point where you're fighting this one guy and he like claims that he knows everything about you psychomantis yeah and it reads your memory card and he goes you like playing Mega Man don't you whoa that you have a save file from another game and you're like and another kid you don't you don't

8:25 ████ know you're like how the ████ does he know ████ yeah and another another game that did that really really well uh this game called undertale that like I'm not gonna be spoiling anything because it's been out for a long time but there's a crazy thing in undertale where the programmer this genius guy one dude made the entire game himself all the assets music Graphics programming all of it and he did this crazy thing where um no matter what system you're playing on right he does this thing where you fight the first boss and you in the story you have a feeling you don't want to kill this boss because his first boss is basically your mother and then um you're like hitting there right and then uh her life bar is like nowhere near being dead but like if you hit her this much she just dies and you're like oh ████ no what the ████ so then like you reset you like naturally as a person you're like ah now let me reset I don't I didn't want to kill her so you go back and then you uh don't kill her and then

9:15 she's alive everything's cool you go to the next room and this ████ demonic flower pops up from the ground and goes I know what you did oh ████ you killed her and you went back and tried to undo it yeah and it ████ like you don't see it coming at all because they know everybody's gonna do that that's what they punched and then it goes It goes and then he literally goes like he's it's like makes that setting of like you thought you were in a normal game but you're not whoa ████ ████ with the undertale yeah it ████ with you so hard console does that come on it's a game where you can go from beginning to end without killing a single thing and it shows you the consequences of reaction so if you go things out dude no yes if you go through it and you kill normal enemies you realize later that you get to a village the first Village and it's just less populated because those enemies were the citizens of that place it's fine God damn

10:07 I know about this what's the a like 34. you can't be pregnant okay you're gonna be a homeowner yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah dude it's so tight yeah one of the biggest jackpots I ever hit was uh one of my friends that I met in school his dad was a arcade technician what what a score go to his house and his garage was just lined with arcade machines but you know the part we put the quarters in all of them just opened so we could play Street Fighter unlimited and as soon as you die you just click the bottom and you just go back you know the part where the quarter hits the Little Hook oil these kids are out here yeah you just hit the bottom just keep hitting the bottom Mark doesn't jam on this thing yeah he's like where do you put the quarter but that's also when I realized I'm not really into games because I was

10:57 able to have an orgy and then like we would go every week and afterwards I just like oh I was kind of board with it you're desensitized to great video games maybe I was able to ████ like ████ all these arcades and ████ realistic sports games I never got into like FIFA Madden NBA 2K or anything because things like NFL Blitz or NBA Jam or yeah or punch out you know what I mean punch out was my jam oh that ████ was so much more fun it was fun yeah what about did you guys ever play Shooters in the arcade oh yeah like lethal and force crisis my guy the pink and the blue one right yeah with the actual ████ and changes those are cool house of the dead dude that was sick man attitude was nuts even the ████ Jurassic Park game

11:47 dude those games would ████ rob you though yeah because it's like two bucks to play they ████ run can you die after like five minutes be like here's 15 pterodactyls oh you've lost all your health oh it looks like you gotta re-up if you want to keep playing kill the civilians yeah unrealistic those ████ pterodactyls and tarantulas at the same time yeah like what is it and they can throw axes at you zombies shoot that ax in the air oh are there still nickel nickels around or no I don't know I don't know no bum because it's not about coins anymore they're cards so you buy a card for the day oh I see round one kind of took over round one round that one's pretty fire there's a place at Red Rock I take tackle yeah we go there yeah one of my nieces and nephews what's it called there's an arcade but it's like it's for kids but it's like there's a whole back section to Red Rock Casino where there's like a

12:37 giant movie theater and then uh ████ arcades and ████ yeah yeah and like they have like a ████ kid kid Jamboree thing or whatever like a these DC discoveries yeah tunnels through all these tubes and probably smelling vomit and ████ it's for the parents that want to just drop the kids off and they can go Campbell yeah they sign a kid I was like how long did I leave a kid here and they're like oh until we close so I think there's parents are just like here you go for like 12 hours and then you're like how long you open like 24 hours we don't close ████ they are responsible because we were gonna drop them off for a couple hours and then we're like they're like oh if it's their first time you need an immunization her I'm like oh ████ these guys are like legit legit wow huh because he bought another kid or some ████ make sure your children don't have babies no dude so I

13:28 I gotta say probably the Elder Scrolls Oblivion oh Elder scrolling great game yeah and I used to Rob everyone's houses and I would I would go in there and then if if a kid if a kid ever talks ████ because there's always some kids who talk ████ in those games I would immediately save file and then I would ████ that kid up like like I would kill them I would lightning bolt them and ████ save file first though yeah say file first and then I would loot him too have you seen any Elder Scrolls what you want to like rob a store you just pick up a pot and you put the pot over the shopkeeper's head and then you just take everything ████ it up you could do that and then he's just standing there he just can't see it this is like World of Warcraft but

14:19 s███████ I get slow I try to get in those games but I just felt like I was running errands all the time yeah oh you don't like killing dragons huh well like I I didn't want like say for The Witcher right I thought The Witcher was gonna be sick the first game I played was Witcher 3 and I started playing for like 15 minutes and I was like I gotta go to the ████ shop I gotta buy these potions before I fight this Griffin and I was like dude he's way too much but it's too much I'm actually with you bro you have to be in that state of mind of like wonderment to like really be captivated yeah bro if you have something to do that dates and like they give you text box to read instructions that are this big and I'm like I'm not reading that bro I'm not really not reading anything I'm not reading that and by the way I gotta read with my finger under it and ████ I'm sorry yeah I don't care dude ████ ████ up I'm here to rob houses I'm here to yeah cut people's heads up but you got to team up with a friend

15:09 yeah let's run errands together and then it's fun even playing with a friend sometimes I'm like ugh I don't even want to do that I just want to like I said this yesterday but I'm very excited on Monday I get the early release of Hogwarts Legacy oh that's tight but that's not multiplayer huh I can't like ████ people up in it I don't know it's open world but I don't think so you can bro I think you could ████ abracadab or something but I wanna Abracadabra real people and piss them the ████ off and be like expeller ammos and dogs dude I think they're there's gonna be a you would be in utter Paradise with GTA 5 online and and a a hacking mod oh yeah oh life's total hell I would so I did GTA online it was fun I used to get in my helicopter and I just land on people's cars are we playing this together by the way yeah okay you can log people out of their account like you could just turn

16:00 their whole like the program off that's kind of incredible dude I used to play heist with my friends in GTA and they but they would always play like late at night and I'd be like the getaway driver and I would fall asleep bro I would literally fall asleep with my mic on I'm like just I don't know like that's happened three years the real world huh yeah in real world and I fall asleep and they're like yo yo what's up what's up Nick Drive I was playing with Tiff's cousins bro I was playing with their cousins and we're like yeah let's do this ████ Heist this is like a couple years ago GTA 5 Heist right yeah yeah I would fall asleep dude I eat one of my favorite heists to do is the stealth ones right and it was always going to take it so far was like okay I'm you know you have to like take down security cameras and ████ like that and I'm like hey guys all right ████ this guy I'm going live

16:55 because that means everyone has to load again nobody wants to load again it takes like 18 minutes to load it yeah and then it takes 18 minutes to load back out oh no Warzone stuff because you gotta like it takes so long for you to get in the ████ Lobby and then you get killed in the first five minutes and then I go reload back again you're like oh dude I'd rather ████ turn my game off but I love I love using military terms to be like yeah guy I gotta go live I can't believe I can't do this but dude you guys would love if we did the GTA like simple Heist together it's like cream when it works like imagine this like so the way that it works it's like hey you're gonna be at the jail you got to get this guy out of the jail I gotta go to the airport and steal this plane and we gotta time into that by the

17:45 time you're out I pick you up at the same like um it's like so good dude I would land on you bro I'll go live I gotta go live it's a life right now out I'm willing to take the risk because that's entertaining too you guys look at the same screen like how do you know what you guys are doing you just have to talk yeah you got to be like all right pick it up playing now you can't see what I'm doing you can't you don't get a small screen to enjoy what they're doing too no you have to just focus on your task and we all have to it's real life bar we got to communicate on when we're like unless you just are watching us stream but dude it's so much fun we can really do that let's do it and then there's always the variability

18:45 if I get on my PC can I get my Batmobile I don't think so damn oh dude if you sign up for GTA online and you already have a rockstar account you'll get like free money you just buy another one we're buying the Batman yeah I'll do that foreign
