ikr... the only video game podcast on the internet can't seem to get their ongoing audio issues fixed while all others never have an issue. just saying...It can be hazardous to your health when using headphones.
Funny how that works eh? One ups the price while dropping value of games given, while the other ups the price and boosts quality and quantity of games given. Yet they give woes to the one giving more for the buck.
@@MoFoTRex93 valid point, but see the mindset is negative Xbox, they don’t look at the negatives on ps because that would mean they’d have to accept both have negatives.
@@natedunn3933 no they didn't cover it, it was briefly mentioned on their weekly podcast thats it, there wasn't constant articles about there wasnt talks of how their sub service is no longer worth it, there wasnt a barrage of people saying their sub service is running gaming.

In regards to why Aemond has the biggest dragon, Vhagar was on of the three dragons used to conquer Westeros originally and was flown by of one of Aegon I's sister/wife, and is the only surviving dragon of the three. It was riderless when Aemond claimed it. It is also important to note that dragons aren't entirely tamed in Game of Thrones and the choose their rider too
IGN shitting on xbox again, what a surprise. PlayStation increase PlayStation plus prices, nothing, Microsoft increase gamepass let’s have a section shitting on xbox, at least Justin was sensible.
Squad 51 vs. The Flying Saucers looks incredible! Glad it got a shoutout in this episode. I’d never heard of it before but I’ll be picking it up today!
to me eldin ring is the best game ever made what an incredible world they created . Bloodborne , shovel knight and tiers of the kingdom are right there for me as well
How to snack while playing games? Don't. It's just always a bad idea. But if you DO for some reason (like, say, you're playing CounterStrike with your friends and are really bad at it and die in the first minute of the round every time and then have nothing to do but wait for the next round), then a very, VERY simple solution is just to use utensils. Fork would be ideal for most things. If you're eating finger food like chips, you could opt for chopsticks. Have napkins nearby just in case. Bonus points if they are wet napkins.
Didn’t hear the Severance news, super pumped that season 2 is coming out. I’m glad they didn’t just release it and hopefully this means it’s going to be as tight as the first season. 🤞 Another excellent episode of Scoop!
The Simpsons Ride used to be the Back to the Future ride. And funny enough the mummy ride used to be an E.T. Ride and would say your name at the end of it.
Justin 'wigging' up a way to 'sproing' something into his mouth like a 'tiddlie wink' via a trebuchet has got to be one of the funniest things I've heard in a while
Justin & Sam will never understand the passion a game like Elden Ring SOTE creates in a lot of its players. The game is not for everyone but for does of us it grabs it is a unique & immersive experience unlike any other game. Thanks for representing the people that love the FromSoftware lore Mark.
Transformers is neither a roller coaster, nor like The Simpsons Ride. It’s very much like the Spider-Man ride in Orlando. Back to the Future was replaced by Simpsons.
Everything is increasing in Price, spaghetti, bread, skateboards, games, gas, Netflix, why would Game Pass be immune to inflation/shrinkflation? Thats the real issue. ”Like, come on” -Jimmy
It's not so much the price hike as much as the broken promise of Game Pass being synonymous with DAY ONE releases.. not to mention the online multiplayer not being included on one of the tiers.
Please fire your sound engineer, no excuse for these problems to persist for so long especially when they are failing at the basics. Plenty of more talented people who would love the opportunity.
@Harvdigity Because covid made people lazy and now everyone expects to be able to work from home. Honestly it's pretty ridiculous and companies need to just bite the bullet and tell everyone you either work on site like always of you are fired, the pandemic is over and maintaining pandemic politics helps no one.
Glad you guys could get right into it and tell the truth about that Price Hike without hiding it under thirty minutes of talk about literally nothing. If only there was a dedicated IGN Xbox Podcast that also had the fortitude to also do so. BUT THERE ISNT.

It’s wild Sam is dunking on people who care about Elden Ring story. As if it were any less important than any other narrative from any other game. The final boss of erdtree is a nice surprise and interesting lore implications for those who care about it.
@@TheBean87 It absolutely does. When you don't have to reach a level of quality because the game wont have sell numbers, expect play time that gets blunded with others, you don't have a direct correlation between your product and the money it made. The quality goes down. As long as the service has one or two titles that keep gamers subscribed, all other titles matter less, you get less competition, less innovation, less quality.
Stop acting like 12th is bad. It was going up against cod, Minecraft, fortnight roadblocks, etc. They are all Multiplayer games and it was like the only single-player game.
You lot are in such denial. You're never going to replay games that are not easily accessible through roms. You ain't playing elden ring in 5-10+ years. You ain't playing bayonetta 2 ever again and if you do it's going to be for 5 minutes. Digital is the way forward. No one wants to store games or change disks or carry carts around with them. Pc has been all Digital and no one complains. Consoles will be the same.

Zero sound issues on my end.
The ending made me laugh so hard, quality work all round gents 😂
Sam literally made me fall off my chair in this episode. Bloke cracked me up during those elden ring parts hahaha
Gamepass UK is still cheaper /same as Spotify and top tier Netflix. I'd rather they all cost less, just have to shop around.
Yea. And in the euro zone new games cost 80€ and gamepass ultimate is 18€, PC Gamepass 12€, so still lot of value there.
The Elden Ring bonus discussion is funny as heck. 😆
Sony increased thier sub prices by 35% last year yet wheb xbox does its a massive problem

@@MoFoTRex93 valid point, but see the mindset is negative Xbox, they don’t look at the negatives on ps because that would mean they’d have to accept both have negatives.
Because that happened last year, not this week. IGN podcast definitely covered both price increases. Don’t make something out of nothing. ✌️

Replying to Sam. The Simpsons ride replaced the Back to the future ride.
Alf as a final boss would be a nice surprise
Will everyone be this freaked out when Nintendo and Sony raises their prices on games... GTA6 floated 100$ ...
Who cares about Sony or Nintendo? Only Xbox news/rumours generates clicks
They already raised the price of first party games to $70.
That's how much some games cost 30 years ago. Younger gamers need to understand that their hobby costs money.
@@mikesmith3397 Also $100 years ago is even MORE now.
Was this the first episode with an insert commercial? Does the goose camp have fiduciary problems?
Make sure you watch the Game Scoop end credits this week! 😂
In regards to why Aemond has the biggest dragon,
Vhagar was on of the three dragons used to conquer Westeros originally and was flown by of one of Aegon I's sister/wife, and is the only surviving dragon of the three. It was riderless when Aemond claimed it.
It is also important to note that dragons aren't entirely tamed in Game of Thrones and the choose their rider too
True core gamers keep their controller clean by putting their nuggets in a blender and drinking that savory chicken shake
Does it ever feel like there's some passive aggressiveness towards Mark sometimes?
Yes I’ve thought it every time he’s on. Especially from dipsh1t Justin.
Woah!!! He quoted ThisIsJackBauer!! That’s me!!!! lol so cool
It's true, people didn't like the Horizon games that sold millions, they were just foisted upon the masses.
Weird level of disrespect.
Udon...see some of us watch the whole show.
The "secret ending" of this episode was hilarious; Sam had me non-stop laughing lol
Daemon is peaking
WHAT WAS THE REDACTED?!?!
Shmup
IGN shitting on xbox again, what a surprise. PlayStation increase PlayStation plus prices, nothing, Microsoft increase gamepass let’s have a section shitting on xbox, at least Justin was sensible.
The Back to the Future ride was pretty awesome. Glad Daemon saw Waterworld, crazy that still is a thing there lol.
Squad 51 vs. The Flying Saucers looks incredible! Glad it got a shoutout in this episode. I’d never heard of it before but I’ll be picking it up today!
Sad to hear that there isn't the "Back to the Future" ride anymore. It was awesome!
"Belt Scroller": Likely the same reason the "Capcom Beat Em Up Bundle" was called "Capcom Belt Action Collection" in Japan
That Simpson's ride has been around since at least a decade ago and it was easily my favorite part then, glad to hear it's still great today too :)
Omg what an amazing episode. So many lol moments. Best Mark episode to date!
Such a huge bummer that we can’t get a descent Double Dragon game. SOR4, TMNT Shredders Revenge, River city..Stellar beat’em ups.
to me eldin ring is the best game ever made what an incredible world they created . Bloodborne , shovel knight and tiers of the kingdom are right there for me as well
This 20 questions game was hard! Valiant effort, Camp Goose
1:28:13
Justin: “Can we leave?”
Mark: “We can leave” *screen goes black” 😂😂😂
They got rid of the back to the future ride. It was my favorite

Hilarious bts stuff at the end
Daemon is like the dad you would choose if you had to become a child again, such a dude
The Simpsons Ride used to be the Back to the Future ride. And funny enough the mummy ride used to be an E.T. Ride and would say your name at the end of it.
1) pause game, 2) put controller down, 3) grub, then resume game.
Messmer, Scorpion Lady and Last Boss are the only mandatory bosses
Mark was right.
Sam has the right idea.
Justin 'wigging' up a way to 'sproing' something into his mouth like a 'tiddlie wink' via a trebuchet has got to be one of the funniest things I've heard in a while
❤ you, Omega Cops
Sam, Back To The Future ride was dismantle years ago when The Simpson Ride was built & took its place....
It's only $7 a month
Mmm DD music intro 😊
The Simpson’s ride replaced the back yo the future ride.
Sam, Back to the Future ride was replaced by Simpsons. Basically a reskin. It was really cool and want Universal to bring it back so bad.

Did you watch the end credits? lol
The Final Boss? The Rock is in Erd Tree?
the simpsons ride used to be the back to the future ride.
The books were great, but forget them for this show.
Transformers is neither a roller coaster, nor like The Simpsons Ride. It’s very much like the Spider-Man ride in Orlando. Back to the Future was replaced by Simpsons.
Layoffs and price increases for the trillion $ company
Its inflation, price hikes are the norm now

Really yikes yall knew it was going to go up. It's still a great deal.
Axelay is a great game with awesome looking bosses.
That Harry Potter ride is a throw-up machine. Terrible. But the line through Hogwarts is fantastic.
Voiceover man: “Day One on Gamepass…for some of you”
Always so weird to me to hear people talk about what content can be skipped in Elden Ring...
A few weeks ago there was discussion about Microsoft closing game studios. Clearly the price needed to go up.
Trillion dollar company struggling according to you
First time hearing about Axelay this 20Q was impossible difficulty.
The Interview show is like the FFVII remake. Sorta the same, but different.
Please fire your sound engineer, no excuse for these problems to persist for so long especially when they are failing at the basics. Plenty of more talented people who would love the opportunity.
Don’t call for people getting fired for trivial reasons.
It is ridiculous that your in studio host of the show has worse sound quality than everyone else.
Honestly why can’t they just go back to the studio. Weird.

Lmao at that title, still a better deal than PS Premium easily
The better deal is the service offered by your preferred platform
