So many great and hilarious ideas here guys! Easy Allies should start a consulting group that devs hire for brainstorming sessions when starting new projects.
I hadn't seen this before the superbowl. This makes me wish there was a stream of Huber watching the game, or a full on Allies party. How to start enjoying foosball.
Starting with the VR, I expect/hope to see gaze-tracking in the big commercial HMD's. Just finished my master's thesis on foveated rendering and found that the FOVE released and at least Oculus and Google are really looking into it.
Huber, EAs sales target for Battlefront 2 was actually around 15 Million copies. They changed their sales predictions to 10 Mil after the backlash, so EA really sold way off the mark they were hoping for AND missed their revised projections. Edit: also apparently Battlefield 2 sold 7 Million, not 9 as was reported.
It's funny going through these a year later, have to say I don't think they were close on most of these :p Blood predicted an Animal Crossing release date but instead he almost nailed the announcement date (I think he has a chance of being right this year if he made the same bet)
For Honor is still going strong. Season 5 is launching in two weeks with the reworks for Kensei, Berserker, and Conqueror. Dedicated servers coming in early Season 5 along with new Arena Mode and a new improved training mode. People dismiss it out of hand because of old outdated arguments that don't apply anymore. It's like R6 Siege, it got better.
I think Game Pass will be the wild card when it comes to Sea of Thieves. For $10 the initial spike of player will be massive, but we'll see if it's sustainable. Sea of Thieves is the perfect game for Game Pass because of the social aspect.
Personally what I want the most is Jak and Dexter 4, now I know that they have leaked art designs to when they have announced that they have canceled it back in 2014 nevertheless they also said that the idea of having a forth installment was never off the table, so I would literally pass out if Jax and Dexter 4 will be announced, let it make a surprise appearance like Beyond Good and Evil 2
Well CoD is running out of ideas and everything is hyped up for Red Dead so it might actually happen haha but this year might be too soon. Could actually be good haha
hopefully man or even a fun battle royal type mode. Played black ops 2 online for 3 years straight, only reason my ps3 wasnt collecting dust. cod is my online pvp jam, hopefully they'll have a good year with treyarch (they usually deliver on the multiplayer side).
WW2 was the first CoD I bought since modern warfare 2, I'm not as good as I used to be haha It might be slightly controversial, but I did enjoy the singleplayer campaign more than the mp aspect, but I think it has more to do with the resultscreens than the game itself :P
haha. man, mw2 campaign is still great. my last cod was blops3. hopefully they'll have a good year and is available on the switch. I can only game on handhelds atm, hopefully theres a cod on switch when I eventually get one.
Prediction: A Mortal Kombat Game featuring Jackman Wolverine, Wesley Snipes Blade and Tom Cruise Crow. And since its Switch Exclusive, all three will get amiibos. And it is developed by Crackdown 3.
Crackdown 3 suffers from being an MS product. Being put on Azure, the worst of the big three cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google), puts it in a bad spot in my opinion. Workloads running in Azure are just not as good from what I've seen.
I don't see Red Dead R2 battle Royal ode, maybe later as dlc... Kinda like Zombie mode in part 1, it was unrealistic for the single player mode, so they can do that battle royal later where it won't make sense at all.
THE REASON I NEVER GOT INTO HARRY POTTER WAS CAUSE THERE WAS ONLY ONE GOOD GAME FROM THE SERIES BUT SHOULD HAVE HAD FULL SCHOOL DARK SOULS "OPEN CASTLE/WORLD"
I don't understand the hate you guys feel towards Borderlands, it isn't amazing nor life changing, but come on, it is OK, handsome jack is probably the best villain I've seen in an fps.
I predict Nintendo Labo will release to critical acclaim, being touted as one of the best and most innovate things to ever happen to gaming but the software will be so underwhelming people will forget about it by the end of the year. Unless Nintendo announces new kits, in which case the new kits won’t generate as much buzz/hype. I predict God of War will be nominated for many awards at The Game Awards but will end up being completely overlooked, just like Horizon: Zero Dawn. Lool I predict MS will do more to appear as close buddies with Nintendo, in an attempt to make it seems like it’s Xbox & Nintendo vs PlayStation. I predict DMC5 will be Capcoms big game for Jan 2019. I predict Dragon Quest will finally get the recognition it deserves in the West. I predict the new Battlefield will have free content updates instead of a Season Pass (Premium) and Cosmetic Only Loot Boxes but will still suffer from low sales because of backlash to EA. Although I’m personally a big BF fan and I’m curious to see what they do next, I just hope they remove elite classes instead of double down on them. However, I predict they’ll double down on elite classes. Lol And for my final prediction, I predict George R. R. Martin still won’t have released The Winds of Winters by the end of 2018! xD
I agree with everything (come the fuck on George) except I doubt God Of War will get nominated that much. Predicting a critical backlash a few weeks after launch.
To get VR to the ideology that people want it to be is still far off and would end up being the most premium of products. To get over the sickness and fatigue of continued play and the vertigo that the displacement gives you, we would need something most would shrink back at, neural input. The power of the box and lots of wires is part of the problem Huber, but frankly, to get it to the science fiction-y way people want VR to be is something a huge majority still cannot afford and would bankrupt most companies to try to bring to a mass market for an "affordable" at this level of tech. You ain't gonna get this by a company taking a hit like with consoles, because it would be too much of a hit to subsidize the cost.
No, it was Call of Duty Black Ops 1 Mission 5 SOG Keh Sahn Vietnam Fortunate Son is playing as the level opens and you meet up with Woods ua-cam.com/video/dVrnAmB69vI/v-deo.htmlm55s
VR is not gonna work, even wireless, that would make it even more expensive... It's too expensive, maybe at $200 max... No one can afford it, and barely any devs use it wisely.
oasisbeyond not true at all. It's selling well still on all platforms and whilst wireless would make it more expensive, I'm sure they can figure out how to sell it at a reasonable price.
Holy crap, rewatching this a year later, and Kyle basically nailed Let’s Go Eevee and Pikachu. 1:36:40
1:48:47 Bloodworth's hype for a prediction of a Skies of Arcadia PC port was drowned out. I heard you Bloodworth
Sophie had the best predictions of 2018.
DON singing makes me love his presence even more
When does he sing?
What a family. Normally I listen to this videos as a podcast. But when I see the allies its like to be with a bunch of friends.
3:50 Ian's hair looks like a beard as he passes through.
15:52 Octopath Traveler is a troupe name
28:51 Call of Duty: The four Jackman
41:23 Don's pick for a Kingdom Hearts world
1:43:49 Onimusha weapons in Monster Hunter hype makes Huber break
1:57:06 Can't forget the original Gameboy's best feature
You're a good man Charlie Brown.
Whenever I am depressed I always come here to get the Huber Hype in my Life! Huber is the best!!
The game streams are good, but the unorthodox streams are the best! I hope we keep getting ones like this more often in 2018!
Marlon Carrero I wish they would let Don be the Vince McMahon of the betting specials and have him add members to betting events WWE style.
These are the only ones I watch!
I've gotten out of the habit of watching group-streams live, and am starting to regret it after missing this :/
Discussions like these are what make you guys the best in the biz. Love and respect 👐🏻
7:00 in and this discussion is easily more heated than the GOTY stream
Jacob Buchanan I was thinking the exact same thing x)
Oh man, time to revisit this now!
how can you hate these guys.. love em
As someone who's from the Philadelphia area, it made me so happy to hear them sing the Eagles fight song.
Bloodworth used to have a blue iPhone 5C, and so did I. Bloodworth now has an iPhone SE, and now so do I.
Samuel Burriss why did you write this? 😂
This is mildly interesting
@YourPalHDee We needed to know.
blood brothers
The bloodmoon connects us...
Perfect thumbnail! Sophie!
You guys are the best there is when it comes to video game commentary. Thank for being so genuine and positive all the time!
Project Octopath: Jackman is a 10
What a good doge
Some of these predictions are surprisingly accurate.
I didn't even know this was happening. Sweet!
I like how beforehand they specifically state 2:55
And then they go all out 28:46
That dog is so freaking cute!!!
So many great and hilarious ideas here guys! Easy Allies should start a consulting group that devs hire for brainstorming sessions when starting new projects.
I hadn't seen this before the superbowl. This makes me wish there was a stream of Huber watching the game, or a full on Allies party. How to start enjoying foosball.
Really bummed that the group stream didn't get to be Fighterz (hopefully next week) but I'm always down for some EZA predictions
Greatest thumbnail in UA-cam history.
@1:16:55 Ian "Ovens are weird dude"
That made me lose my mind!
Miss these days.
That thumbnail
Thanks for the great content guys!
Starting with the VR, I expect/hope to see gaze-tracking in the big commercial HMD's. Just finished my master's thesis on foveated rendering and found that the FOVE released and at least Oculus and Google are really looking into it.
Jolly stream! I cracked up several times.
i would say clickbait, but i came for the dog and saw her!
You should consider putting the audio of this on the podcast feed. I love easy commute...
I love you guys so much.
I would kill for a Treasure Planet world in Kingdom Hearts.
The Eagles did, in fact, win the Super Bowl. Crazy predictions
And holy shit Don & Huber with the mind meld uber prediction for the Superbowl. Huber got the exact spread.
Huber, EAs sales target for Battlefront 2 was actually around 15 Million copies. They changed their sales predictions to 10 Mil after the backlash, so EA really sold way off the mark they were hoping for AND missed their revised projections.
Edit: also apparently Battlefield 2 sold 7 Million, not 9 as was reported.

Blood predicted an Animal Crossing release date but instead he almost nailed the announcement date (I think he has a chance of being right this year if he made the same bet)
Wow and just as I comment this Ian shouts a "but 2019" on the Animal Crossing date, he might be right xD
For Honor is still going strong. Season 5 is launching in two weeks with the reworks for Kensei, Berserker, and Conqueror. Dedicated servers coming in early Season 5 along with new Arena Mode and a new improved training mode. People dismiss it out of hand because of old outdated arguments that don't apply anymore.
It's like R6 Siege, it got better.
"NO" such a funny little argument "Whadda you mean, 'no'?!"
why did this get so heated?! haha this was hilarious, great stream guys.
I think Game Pass will be the wild card when it comes to Sea of Thieves. For $10 the initial spike of player will be massive, but we'll see if it's sustainable. Sea of Thieves is the perfect game for Game Pass because of the social aspect.

Whos watching in 2019? 👍👍
Seems like this should’ve been uploaded to the primary channel
Excellent thumbnail of Sophie
Bully scholarship edition gets a re-release. Rockstar testing the waters for a new Bully game.
Click-bait game is on point guys.
RaveDX what click bait?
Are you sure? Sophie was on point.
Bosman not doing monday streams until box peek is done? I'd much rather have him not do friday streams instead. Dumb game monday is my favorite
I prefer Friday streams. They're more chill, and I can make a much better argument staying up until 2AM on Friday nights over Monday nights.
Best thumbnail pic
Black Ops 1 was set partially in Vietnam, and already used Fortunate Son
49:24
Ben & Blood hahaha
Correction: Black Ops was Vietnam
Also: you could play as a palico in one of the newer Monster Hunter 3DS games
Fuck yes Fatal Frame: Pokemon! Walking around trying to take pictures of Gengar and shit
Kyle seems concerned about monetary bets, but non-monetary bets are just as illegal in California which is where I think easy allies is based.
I feel like crackdown 3 will get a re reveal at E3 this year and it’ll come out in August and include a halo 6 beta in December
Can't believe you guys didn't say this but a Borderlands along the lines of Destiny with a multi-player focus I think could actually work out well.
Well they got the Superbowl right..
There was a leak a few days ago that RDR2 gets a Battle Royal Mode ;)
I predict a Wild West Call of Duty
VanHellington not gonna happen this year but dang, that would be awesome
Well CoD is running out of ideas and everything is hyped up for Red Dead so it might actually happen haha but this year might be too soon. Could actually be good haha
hopefully man or even a fun battle royal type mode. Played black ops 2 online for 3 years straight, only reason my ps3 wasnt collecting dust. cod is my online pvp jam, hopefully they'll have a good year with treyarch (they usually deliver on the multiplayer side).

I can't see PSVR wireless until the PS5 comes out
Octopath Traveller seems like it could be a Romancing SaGa game from what I've read. I've never played any of them though.
Sakurai is working on a new Kid Icarus game or new Ip not Smash. He can oversee it and help but he is not directly involved. Screencap this.
Huber called the Super Bowl.
I thought thumbnail as a FF8 HD Remaster reference until I saw Sophie in the stream.
Did they talk about From Software? if so can someone tell me at which minute?
Fate of the Final 8
KH3 prediction: Incredibles world would work better than a Ratatouille world.
Blue omen is gonna come out of nowhere for game of the year. You heard it here first.
I think it's just gonna be called Octopath Traveler
Crackdown 3 suffers from being an MS product. Being put on Azure, the worst of the big three cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google), puts it in a bad spot in my opinion. Workloads running in Azure are just not as good from what I've seen.
lmao
If you're not playing games should this be on the regular Easy Allies youtube channel?
What if the new God of War has a loot crate problem, "Loot Kratos"
41:25 Don is definitely my best ally now!!! That movie deserves better!!!!
Thoughts Hubers last dream was gonna be to do with Scorn.
No mention of Starfield for 2018? I think its a lock for Bethesda.
Huber is an absolute gem
I don't see Red Dead R2 battle Royal ode, maybe later as dlc... Kinda like Zombie mode in part 1, it was unrealistic for the single player mode, so they can do that battle royal later where it won't make sense at all.
oasisbeyond Welp apparently there is going to be a battle royale when it releases
THE REASON I NEVER GOT INTO HARRY POTTER WAS CAUSE THERE WAS ONLY ONE GOOD GAME FROM THE SERIES BUT SHOULD HAVE HAD FULL SCHOOL DARK SOULS "OPEN CASTLE/WORLD"
What is happening with Resi 2 remake?
I don't understand the hate you guys feel towards Borderlands, it isn't amazing nor life changing, but come on, it is OK, handsome jack is probably the best villain I've seen in an fps.
Stream spoilers.
Bosman's Rocksteady Harry Potter prediction. Please be real.
3:50 Thought Ian had a full beard or goatee on that walk-by
Who's here in 2022? :'(

GoW is above a 90 on Metacritic. Y'all got that one wrong.
BloodWorth pets sophie like he's an evil Genius.
Lmao “zats a bier”

MOST CORRECT 2018 PREDICTION: Sophie will be a good girl.
There already was a COD set in Vietnam and it had Fortunate Son on the soundtrack -_-
No, it was Call of Duty Black Ops 1
Mission 5 SOG
Keh Sahn Vietnam
Fortunate Son is playing as the level opens and you meet up with Woods
ua-cam.com/video/dVrnAmB69vI/v-deo.htmlm55s
Pattaya Pixel Counter it was really more Cold War themed with Vietnam as a backdrop, and actual full Vietnam CoD hasn't really happened yet
What the hell are you talking about? Half the missions in black ops 1 take place in Vietnam or Laos during the war. Have you even played the game?
Where's Damiani? These freeflow sessions have the best Bosman-Damiani banters
He was up at some outrageous hour playing FFXIV and seems to have been half asleep off-cam through this stream. Bless 'im.
Octopath Traveller: A Final Fantasy Story lul
Everytime Ian was screaming for Stephen to keep the money instead of sending it to EZA like he said he would:
Brandon's mind: "IAN SHUT UP!!!!"
VR is not gonna work, even wireless, that would make it even more expensive... It's too expensive, maybe at $200 max... No one can afford it, and barely any devs use it wisely.
oasisbeyond not true at all. It's selling well still on all platforms and whilst wireless would make it more expensive, I'm sure they can figure out how to sell it at a reasonable price.
What breed of dog is sophie?
red dead october, brad got it!
Hate both teams but gotta root for eagles
