"No. You mean the spurs? First. I mean, the spurs. Yeah, it looked as big as the Alamo dome when they shut off the corners. I mean, a lot of people in the products and stuff. Right. Well, I mean, we know what they're seeding trick is, you know, pack everything on one side. But at the beginning of the show, they showed the entire right side and the middle, you know, obviously not the left side, but that was all pretty packed on what I saw. I was like, oh, okay, not bad. It was so full and big that it almost like even the microphone had like this WrestleMania sound of like hollow air. Did you guys notice that? No. It's like when it's really when there's a really, really big venue and there's a lot of people out of space. Like sometimes the microphone has almost like a hollow sound and I feel like that's what I heard. Yeah, it was big. Yeah. So yeah, Brock says fight Roman tonight. Sammy doesn't want to do it, but Brock, bullies him into it. Be a star. And yeah, you tell Sammy, don't worry, I got you back. And then after the break, Sony makes the match official. And Brock will face the winner at day one. Yeah. Great. Next up we have Sasha Banks versus Shayna Baszler before the match. They showed highlights of Baszler stomping on Nia Jax and Eva Marie's arms on the steel steps. And I wrote, this was my joke. This is what I was going to say. All right, I was going to say they showed highlights of Baszler future endeavoring Nia Jax and Eva Marie. But then after I typed that pat McAfee said, a future endeavors kick on the stairs. All right then. Fair enough. But now Jax, Eva Marie. Who are you? Who are you? Before even him to say that is pretty incredible. You're going to joke on our show for him to say it out loud. I think he's the only one that gets away with that stuff. He has these really not. I don't need your money. Yeah, it's like, oh, you don't want me to be here fine. I'll leave. Yeah. Yeah, so Sasha went for a creative roll up, but Shane encountered with the cure food of clutch, Sasha escaped, and immediately put Baszler in the bank statement, but Sheena got out of it. In the end, Shana went for a gut wrench power bomb, but Sasha countered and won with a make sure you keep track this week. Oh yeah. Roll up. Yeah. Yeah. Great. Yeah. Speaking of coquinas, Samoa Joe, where's he been? I'm right. He's dead. Even if he's not this show. No. He's no show. No show, Joe. I mean, you figure, if you want to rap original black and gold at war games, you use Samoa Joe. Yeah. Not in LA, maybe Samoa Joe didn't want to be a part of the rainbow NXT. Maybe. Maybe it was his decision to be like, all right. Come on this. You make me the champ, and then you're gonna change the rainbow colors, right? I don't know. I mean, that's Scottie too hottie. He said he walked, you know? He said he asked for his release. Beth Phoenix is left now. Uh huh. So maybe people just don't want to be a part of this NXT, and can you blame them? Right. They can see the train coming from the other way. And they want to get off before it Rex. Absolutely. Yeah. It's like in Spider-Man two, the tracks are out, and we don't have Spider-Man to save us this time. We better leave now. It's true. We don't have Tobey Maguire to make a bottom left face. What's going on below that? All right, so backstage, we see Sonia talking to Adam Pearce on FaceTime because he's too much of a pussy to show up because Brock's back. Yeah. And he's like, oh, I think I'm gonna go remember the Alamo tonight instead. That's funny because according to Google, the Alamo closes at 5 30. So where the fuck were you? I knew it. I knew he was a pussy. I did this bizarre Sam. Yeah. Right. So then, Drew McIntyre walks up and asked Sonia, who's responsible for not putting me in the battle royal last week, and Sonia says it was pierce. Yeah. So then drew holds up his sword until Sonya tell pierce I'm looking for him. He holds up his sword like it's his dick. Yeah. And so he's like, nah. I think these rumors that pierce's hard path. I think the rumor that pierce is getting a stable is pretty accurate here. Because Brock wants to kill him, Drew McIntyre wants to kill him. Right. So two of the biggest guys, so he'll get who? Sami Zayn von Wagner was there one week, and now he was never seen again. Almost broke up with AJ kind of, so. Oh, yeah. Be he'll throw him. Oh, God. Could be the bouncer. Got von Wagner back the most pierced to talk to Adam Pearce, please. You have an appointment. Come on, no Mas. It's me. It's A.J. Styles. Can you just let me in please? Yeah, we'll see. Next up, we have happy talk with happy Corbin and madcap moss. Corbin was cosplaying as Seth Rollins. Sure. Wearing a ridiculous outfit. Yeah. What's the mustache? I think this was the first time we've seen Corbin in shorts. And his legs are more tatted than Eric's. Yeah. Yeah. Right. But does not look good on Corbin. Yeah. You know who's gonna shit ton of tattoos that you can't see is Rhea Ripley. Yeah. Like all over her legs. Like when she posts on Instagram and like skirts or that's right, yeah. Next week we're gonna do a side by side. We're gonna have Corbin's legs, Eric's legs and Rio's legs and me and Joe are gonna guess which ones are which. Okay, yeah. I might have some dead giveaways. Oh man, those legs are too hot, those have to be Eric's. Whose legs are they? So Corbin starts off his show singing if you're happy and you know and kill yourself. I mean, clap your hands. Yeah. And they do that. Yeah. Corbett brings up the battle royal and tells moss. It was a pretty good prank when I eliminated you and moss seems upset at first, but then he laughs hysterically and then Corbin mocks Jeff Hardy for not realizing Sami Zayn was still in the battle royal. And.

Oh yeah every single time so it always leads. At least i think it's scottie and me more where it's just like fuck you and it really does up the excitement of just like oh fuck out. Hey they were on the outside. And i was just like one of us is going to be really upset by this still. I'm still in the final final final. Four yeah yeah. 'cause you had. Who did you have had thai air attack on your final four then Yeah that was the perfect final two especially in chicago because you can tell both ruby and thunder rosa real big kinda nerd favorites ed chicago's full of fucking nerds that love wrestling and so you could tell like eat. Whoever got dumped over no one would have lost if that makes sense. I did like the bid after where she said hi bryson. She hugged rams. I crisis week. 'cause it almost looks like because you've got to remember when she went to. Wwe from kara. There weren't many chia. Kara people in wwe maybe sorrows people like that but like she didn't have many friends so just to see her come out debut. Beat the shit out of a bunch of people and then just look up and say bryce such a joy on her face and it was so amazing. Yep i think also with her entrance as the joker and hearing ruby soho by rancid start blasting seeing our come out to that reaction Eight did bring a tear to my eye. And i'm like they fired you because they didn't have anything for you. For how do i'm waiting. I'm waiting waiting for. Live morgan to get released at this point.

Make a bold statement here. Think my be. Chris jericho and mj best matching the company. Because initially i was like this is them. Jeff's definite best match but then as i watched it again i went no sharon. This might be jericho's to it. Feels like those two did pull out. All the stops on this they were they. Were not about to be outdone at that point by. Just the sheer amazing. This this pay per view at this point. Because i just want you to say god at this point so much. Good shit had happen.

"With my favorite battle royals though in w. so far for the casino battle royal especially the last yes last one at w. w. now thing i think is my favorite just for the ending the last five minutes of that alone. Oh fuck i forgot about that. That was the jungle jungle boy around the outside and then getting know everything about that that there was not a poor spot in that match except christian got booed for dumping max caster f- out and literally verbally ripped him up a christian cage apart. It was great. It was great. There's not a bad part of that match now. The the battle royals. They've just keep they just keep getting better or staying good. I i think this is another one of those where it was very good not until the end not many spots of not that i can really pay attention to like. I thought there were a lot of eliminations that were far too early. I really would have loved to see. She kind of go. The distance rehill also technically did not go over the top rope by the you. Third reijo still not eliminated from this battle. Roy i think the problem with that is that she was literally too short like they try. Go over the tried. And then she rebounded down and out and they're like that's when she was supposed to get eliminated cheese eliminated and yeah understandable. Kind of but There was that although we'll say the only problem that i had other than the spot was how quickly and unceremoniously she'd it was eliminated gone. That was like where the fuck wait what who was at sky blue. Who was a big like hometown girl. she's from chicago. First person out i. I'm like tony come. That was the other thing for me was. It didn't make a lot of stars. The people who saw the most were already kind of notable names whereas like like say that last battle royal we love jungle. Boy i think that last bout oil was a star making performance for him. I think that there's a clear difference. Is that this is. This was a battle. Royal made sarobi. Soho could win. This was a oil to show off the talent they already had. It was kind of more of to show that they had that much talent. Like you forget. I think it's something we brought up. Yeah it was.

"Day. The media coverage on the scene, the confusion, the investigation, the autopsies, controversies. And the indelible mark that Bryant left on a city. A speed release in early access it required would be gamers to pay for that privilege. By the way, Paragon would end up being released first and then epic would focus on Fortnite. And then eventually epic would shut down Paragon. It was a project that did not Then I meet the success that the company had hoped for. So the early access version of Fortnite was called Save the world. This was pretty much what the original concept had been years earlier. Players would gather resources and use those resources to build forts and then defend those forts against zombies. The company said it intended to offer save the world up as a free to play game sometime in 2018. This was in 2017 Skip ahead. Now it's early 2019 as I record this, and it still has not happened, the basic version of Fortnite that player versus environment save the World version. Is $39.99 for the standard version. The deluxe edition, which contains more character models and weapons, plus some other stuff is $59.99. So one of the things that big games has done is create a lot of different character models, a lot of different weapons, a lot of different emotes these various elements that Allow you to customize your character to some extent to a great extent, but it's almost like baseball cards. You have to collect them in order to be able to use them. A different version of Fortnite did launch as free to play and it's this version that really captured the attention of a lot of gamers. This is the famous Battle Royale Mode, which epic released in September. 2017 just a few months after save the world entered early access. Now, if you're not familiar with battle royal or battle Royal. If you prefer style games, I'll summarize. The name comes from a Japanese film called Battle Royal, in which a class of students is transported to an island and then they are forced to fight to a last man standing competition. The administrator for the competition, designates certain areas on that island as being safe zones safe zones, just meaning that you wouldn't automatically be killed if you were there. And other areas on the island. Go to becoming off limits. And if you are there when it goes off limits there automatically killed off. Now this sounds a lot like another story called Hunger Games. Well, it's no big surprise Hunger games that those books came out after a battle. Royal had come out and they both cover very similar territory. 1 2017. Brendan Greene, a video game player and mud maker who uses the handle player unknown, oversaw a new game called Player Unknowns. Battle Grounds, sometimes known as pub G. This game was based off of some mods that green had created for other games. And these mods all made a battle Royal start game mode for for these various games created it. The games didn't natively supported So Brendan Green built mods that allowed it to happen, and typically, the way it works is that you have a map and you have a group of players who are all could be against each other either solo or in teams. And they're all in different parts of the map, and a section of that map, typically designated by a circle is the safe zone. Being outside the safe zone means you start taking damage a certain amount of damage per unit of time. And the goal is to be the last player alive at the end of the match. The game became enormously popular very quickly. Despite performance issues and bugs, people famously talked about how they would have the most. Incredible beast of a video game rig and still struggle to run. Of G at its highest settings. Epic must have been paying really close attention to how popular pub G was becoming, because this was right around the same time that they were releasing to save the world. Version of Fortnite. And so they launched their own battle royal mode in September 2017 and it closely resembled pub. Jeez approach. It's incredibly similar. In fact, it was similar enough that it prompted Chung Han Kim, who is the Games developer in a businessman who had become the CEO of the pub G Corporation, to criticize epic games and to threaten legal action, And in January, 2000 and 18 Pub G filed a lawsuit against Epic games. And then dropped it six months later, and they didn't really comment on why they dropped the case. Now. One reason Kim might have been worried about Fortnite is that pub G relies upon the unreal engine for its games engine. So pub G developers sometimes have to work with epic support to implement new features for the pub G game. So the worry was that epic might find out about pub. These plans for upcoming features and then epic could rush to implement similar features into Fortnite and released them before Pub G could do it, undercutting the competition. It didn't take very long for fortnite to catch up Tipoff G and then to pass it in popularity. The fact that it was a free to play game gave it a big boost because pub G is not free to play. If you want to play pub G. You have to go and purchase the game just like you would for a normal video game or any other most other video games. Fortnite, however, is different. You can download the fortnite battle royal game for free and start playing right away. But if you want certain in game items, certain weapons scans characters emotes if you want to get very specific dance. Then you have to pay extra. You have to do that those in game purchases and lots of people were doing that. Not only that, but Fortnite became one of the most popular games to watch someone else play primarily through the streaming service twitch players with handles like to Fu. T F U E and Ninja Brak up millions of viewer hours on the streaming service as they play games and.

That's what i was expecting. That's an and. I think i still think that that should have been the out of this. Anthony gogo beating captain america and being like and beading tapping.

He understands how to get heat despite the fact that he's also a great guy who hates homophobes. It's so strange to me so then it gets me wondering right like what. What's the purpose of cuties group. Then the breakoffs the factory. When they broke off from the nightmare family you know they cutie lost and solo in kamata both loss in the battle royal and a gogo lost his match.

In fact, it was similar enough that it prompted Shang Han Kim, who was the games developer and a businessman who had become the CEO of the pub G Corporation to criticize epic games and to threaten legal action. And in January, 2018 pub G filed a lawsuit against Epic games. And they dropped it six months later, and they didn't really comment on why they dropped the case. Now. One reason Kim might have been worried about fortnight is that pub G relies upon the UN real engine for its games engine. So pub G developers sometimes have to work with epic support to implement new features for the pub G game. So the worry was that epic might find out about pub. Jeez, plans for upcoming features and then epic could rush to implement similar features into fortnight and release them before pub G could do it, undercutting the competition. It didn't take very long for a fortnight to catch up to pub G and then to pass it in popularity. The fact that it was a free to play a game gave it a big boost because pub jeez not free to play. If you want to play buggy, you have to go and purchase the game just like you would for a normal video game or any other most other video games. Fortnight, however, is different. You could download the fortnight battle royal game for free and start playing right away. But if you want certain endgame items, certain weapons skins characters he, Moz. If you want to get very specific dance, then you have to pay extra. You have to do that those in game purchases and lots of people were doing that. Not only that, but fortnight became one of the most popular games to watch someone else play primarily through these streaming service twitch players with.

"You got buddies to play a game that is solid the does nothing new. I mean yeah but adventure the adventure. I mean it's fine. It's a fun adventure. the characters are finding in. You know the boss fights it can extend even if it gets. You're you stole fighting alive enemies. Unscreened that you're still in the action. It's just not people could flies best work and i feel like they're at their best when they don't have to deal with online play a good thing. They had an online mode for bold store. I think that was the worst version of or the worst part of the game. This is just not their strong suit. But it's not like that's the thing is i'm rooting for them. More than i am for marbles vendors because that really did feel like it was trying to cash in on people's love for marvel while this feels like someones vision in someone told them they had to make this always online. So yeah i would give it like six hundred ten but when everything's working no more than seven. This is good but also okay ish. It's weird. I even say this but unfortunately it is not the best This year have to offer at sucks. I was rooting for this all the way thankfully. This was a holiday gift. So i didn't spend my hard-earned cash on his game. I don't think anybody should until it is fixed is there's even reports of it Holding up the data like ssd drives have likes twenty nine gigabytes a crash data. So there's already some issues that they need to sort out but they need to sort this out. 'cause i was frustrated as heck trying to have fun in joy this game and going through numerous types of bugs it. This has no fallout seventy six or anthem. Anybody who compares this to that no stop but it definitely could have been better tag man ninety nine. Well this is another online game. Typically 'cause it's a battle royal where you're playing pacman against ninety nine..

"Ring was a good cell. Yeah, he's like got mad. Yeah, and then they thought of fast lane and Seth one. Yeah, of course there was dead. There's a his other promo that he did like when he was, you know mind the stepchildren like one of his other best promos was when he won The Rumble to pick AJ Styles. He's just like a dog J. Yeah style rice and that was all he needed to say. Yeah, and that's all he would do and it was like, you know, he would barely speak but when he did it was great, right cuz they've had a book them. Yeah next up. We have the street profits versus Rey and Dominic Mysterio with rude and Ziggler on commentary Dominic rolls up Dawkins for the win shotgun a century there. Yeah. Yeah, right and then after the match Otis and cable come out to remind rain Dominic that they already beat them, but then ran Dominic Drop Kicked them out of the ring. So we got ran Dominic versus the alpha gang me. Oh boy. With rude Ziegler Ford and Dawkins all uncommon Terry, you know, what's better than two men commentary Booth. What's that form and commentary for men and then Colt & Gray, you know, it's better than a four-man six-man coming in on commentary Alistair. God help us. Can you give us your input? Yes. Rude was off during the Mass. Route said this Ray guys got a big future ahead of him. I could feel it. Yeah. Yeah. It was good Dominic had a really cool tornado DDT on Gable, but Otis broke up the pin Otis then thrown into the barricade. So Dominic's all on his own and then notice, it's Dominic with a splash off the second rope for the win. And again, I say just do the fucking pervade Ur bomb. Yeah, you called it the Vader bomb Vader's only been a bad guy in WWE. Yeah. Just read Vader bomb, right? It looks way better than his lame Splash off the second rope. Right, like what? Are you afraid of heights catch? That's all he knows. That's fucking right. So you think what I'm thinking what's that for way before wasting my tag title? And of course, what else could be Kyrie? What else? Could it Kyrie? Yeah, don't they do that like every year every every it's off the four-way tag team match. Yeah next up. We have Daniel Bryan in ring. I think they did. I think the wasn't the one in New York all three Tag Team Championships were four ways like the women at a four-way draw had a four-way and smacked down. There was a Mania. I think it was the one in New York. It was where all three fucking tag belts. We're off radio fucking forward. Yeah like God help us all. Yeah, like how about that? Why not just pick the two fucking best tag teams and have a fight cuz everybody's going to be yet. Why? Why does everyone get a job? Romania put him in the Andre Battle Royal that's what it's for put 50 fucking guys in there. If you have it doesn't matter who can't literally doesn't matter. How many people are in that match? Yeah, right. It's awful. Yeah next subject of Daniel Bryan and ring promo. He says he's going to make Roman Reigns tap out at Fastlane, which of course he did. Yeah. He didn't do it. Did you made him good job, Daniel, you know, that's something they'll never be able to take away from home. That's going to be the first time we've seen Roman tap, right even though it didn't count as the ref wasn't there but like right in tap before I think so cuz he's always been a it's been a good guy for so long, even when he was in The Shield they he was like booked as the strong one. Yeah, like he wasn't taking Falls or Subs as he fought a guy who's done a submission. I don't know. I like Roman comes out after this with Heyman saying you have a better chance of shooting lightning at your ass than tapping me out. No one in my entire career has tapped me out. I think that's true. You know, I think it is. He says I'd rather lose my own or dead. Tap out to any man. So I would rather die in the ring than to tap out. He's like a brother Coyote Ugly that shit. Yeah. So Bryan says no one thinks they'll tap out until they do and I'm beating you out fast lane. So you go. All right, next up. We have Sami Zayn vs. King Corbin and here's how they hyped this match now. It's time for perhaps the long-anticipated match about history of SmackDown irritating for sweets the lights. Jack a school down there must be aware. But thankfully the oldest are wearing pink Corvette takes on Germany's Next. Oh man. I'm so excited. I better tune in I better not leave. But what why did they just actively shit on their own product? I don't understand like you know, what the man? Yeah. Yeah. No one asked for this match. You booked it. Yeah, you booked a match and then you said look at this piece of shit. We put up. I mean we can say that with almost every match exact. That's why I was going to say you can play this fucking promo for most matches. Yeah, you should take that audio for the soundboard page where that out every week. It's like right next up. We've got this guy versus this guy and now the unlikable object me the dick head and talk this this match is going to suck cock right away. It's like, yeah, we made this would become a three hour podcast cuz we were so right one of our fans Aaron Garcia made a funny joke about Snyder cut. He's like if you fast-forward all the song Moparts, it's a three hour movie. Oh, yeah. Yeah, right. Yeah, that was like the joke about 300 back in the day, right? Yeah you fast-forward. It's 20 minutes. It is a 20-minute movie. So yeah, Sami Zayn vs. King Corbin backstage before the match Kevin Owens tries to snap Sammy out of his crazy conspiracy theories, but Sammy, yeah, so and to be ringside for his match against Corbin wage is if you don't if you don't see anything suspicious, I'll drop the whole thing and Sammy also tweeted at Logan Paul to try to get him involved in this bullshit Logan Paul, like reply like LOL. Okay, I'll cross it out. Like I think Logan Paul and probably not even know who Sami Zayn was probably probability. Like this is like some fan of mine. They probably told like wrestlers. Hey just reach out to every celebrity Primal get them all with it. Let's make it celebrity. Mania. Yeah, you know, right. Yeah. I'm sure they'd love to have Logan Paul. Oh my God. So Corbin wins with the other deities and just a couple of minutes and came back. On commentaries of Sammy yelled at Owens. Did you see that but Kevin owns like nothing happened man, you need to let go of this and then Sammy at first walks away, but then he blindsides Owens with a hallucination kicks. So we're getting this viewed again. Yeah. No cuz it's different cuz now Owens is the face and he's like, oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you know first they were friends, but then the not friends but then the the friends again, but now they're not friends again and then they'll be friends again. Yeah. Yeah what we're getting this at Mania I guess. I mean, it'll be a good match. We know that it probably will be the best match. Probably will I definitely will be think yeah. Yeah if they give them time for but for sure it's just like what? Oh boy, really? Yeah. It's 17 all over again will doing the same job. Right, but hey, look if there's any Silver Lining on this it basically guarantees that Corbin will be in the Andre the Giant battle board, right? I mean and when it and I'm sure maybe sure who cares. Yeah, if wheatly when where is he does? Oh my God talk about that will talk about him later. Okay, how fucking ridiculous is that you know.

"So pub G developers sometimes have to work with epic support to implement new features for the pub G game. So the worry was that epic might find out about pub. Jeez, plans for upcoming features and then epic could rush to implement similar features into fortnight and release them before pub G could do it, undercutting the competition. It didn't take very long for a fortnight to catch up to pub G and then to pass it in popularity. The fact that it was a free to play a game gave it a big boost because pub jeez not free to play. If you want to play buggy, you have to go and purchase the game just like you would for a normal video game or any other. Most other video games. Fortnight, however, is different. You can download the fortnight battle royal game for free and start playing right away. But if you want certain endgame items, certain weapons skins characters he, Moz. If you want to get very specific dance, then you have to pay extra. You have to do that those in game purchases and lots of people were doing that. Not only that, but fortnight became one of the most popular games to watch someone else play primarily through these streaming service twitch players with handles like to food. He f ue and Ninja rack up. Millions of you were ours on the streaming service as they play games and that elevated fortnight's profile Further. It also helped that epic would open up fortnight, so that would play on other platforms. Originally, it was to be PC only, but then away, Mac and PC And now it's also available for consoles and mobile devices. And to be clear pub G didn't invent battle Royal. I don't want to make the claim that pub G created this game mode and fortnight stolen. And the battle Royal version and Pub Ji and the battle Royal version and Fortnight don't exactly play the same way, but not entirely for night. This cartoonish, the physics are not nearly as realistic. It's a faster pace gameplay. This little swim here than pub G is And the fact that you could build stuff and fortnight you can construct barriers and ramps and you can get over mountains this way. You can't do that in pub G. It creates a totally different gameplay experience than you would find and McGee or other battle Royal games. So there are elements to fortnight that really said it of heart. So lots of other games have also got similar battle royal modes, including the most recent call of duty game, black ops for with blackout. So I don't want to suggest that you know, Pub G has a an exclusive right to the battle royal game mode, but that people were criticizing epic games, saying It looks to me like the game that you had promised for years and years and years wasn't doing as well as you wanted. So then you copy to gave that was doing really well, and that's how you were able to turn it into a success. Whether that's true or not. You do have to admit that fortnight is an enormous success. Also the lawsuit between pub G and epic games That's not the only legal headache the epic has had to endure thanks to this runaway success a fortnight. One of those things that you can purchase in the game would be Annie moat or an action that you can choose your character to make based upon a keystroke. So you might have the most letter like a particular pose. But in fortnight the modes that air really famous are the various dances epic has created animations of numerous dances. Some of which were already famous means and there in lies. The problem well, One of the problems. The other problem is that there's some really litigious folks out there who are hoping for a meal ticket. I think But there's fault on all sides. I would argue so one of the dances you could purchase, at least at one time was called fresh. It was a nod to the source of this dance. The television show Fresh Prince of Bel Air. In that show, Alfonso Ribeiro, who played the character, Carlton didn't iconic dance to Tom Jones's song. It's not unusual. Fortnight didn't lift the song. But it did lift the dance and Alfonzo has filed a lawsuit against the company claiming they're capitalizing on his celebrity and didn't give him any credit or compensation. Actor Donald Phase on pointed to another instance in which epic games had included animation that copied a dance he did in the television series Scrubs, Terrence two million. Ferguson filed a lawsuit against epic games for using his Milly Rock dance. I need a red acting on behalf of Russell Backpack Kid. Horning filed a lawsuit because of the game using the flaws dancing move, which horning had made famous in an airing of Saturday night Live. Katy Perry was playing a song and she Through a whole lot of focus toward horning, who then did the flaw stance. It went totally viral and became a huge beam of itself. Here's the thing he didn't invent that dance. You can just do a quick search on YouTube. And you will find there are lots of videos that well predate that Saturday night Live performance one going all the way back to 2010. Of people doing that dance. So my guess is that particular lawsuit won't go very far. Ultimately, once they're able to show that This kid didn't create that dance and that while that that particular signing that live episode might have elevated everyone's awareness of the floss. It's not like that kid has any claim to ownership of the dance. The cases, however, bring up a question. Can a dance be copyrighted? Can you copyright dance moves? As of the recording of this podcast that remains this pretty unanswered question and also learn. A lot of people point out that there's a long history of Of various artists doing dances and making the famous and profiting from them without having actually invented them. Beyond, say, has lifted lots of dances from from films. Michael Jackson did not invent the moonwalk, but he sure did make it famous. So I'm not sure That this particular argument will go much further. However, it has led to a lot of people criticizing epic games in a fortnight for taking content or taking performances. Not crediting the people who originally made those performances famous, so it's some up fortnight. It's a video game that was conceived in 2011. And shown off way too early Epic games, has admitted they talked about this game far too early in the process. It didn't go into a closed Alfa until 2014 transition to a closed beta in 2015 and stayed that way until going into early access as a player versus environment survival game in 2017. Did you have to actually purchase later that year, a new variant that was free to play and when closely resembled another game. Came out propelled the entire title into the spotlight, and now it is a true phenomenon. The fortnight tracker Network currently tracks more than 57,500,000 players of the game. Some estimates for the total number of players across all platforms runs as high as 80 million. No epic uses its own game launcher on the PC rather than going through Valve's steam service, which does allow for tracking That means epic doesn't have to share revenue without because they're not selling their game or using valve's steam service for that purpose, and the popularity of fortnight has allowed epic to launch its own video game store to rival steam. And that big is offering up incentives like a lower revenue cut than what valve demands for featuring games in its store. And it's also offering up other incentives. So if a developer uses epics unreal engine they get more bonus is for Listing their game and epics game store. Now Some gamers might complain that four night isn't a quote unquote serious game. Or maybe that it lives too many features from other sources without credit, or that they are playing in steam. And because steam is the established video game store that irritates people. Personally, I think that competition is always a good thing. There's no denying that the game has become an enormously powerful force in pop culture and general and gaming, in particular, as the company's name attests. It is truly epic. At some point in 2019. The Save the world mode is supposed to go into free to play mode at that point epic will rely entirely on in game purchases to generate revenue from fortnight. The game has already paid off in large amounts. And if epics game store is successful, it will likely go down as one of the biggest winds and video game history. That's something worth dancing about. Well that wraps up this look at epic games is fortnight and the phenomenon it has created. If you guys are fortnight players, or you have any specific thoughts on the subject. Or maybe you have a suggestion for a future episode of text of Get in Touch with me. Send me.

Fuck they go on for way too long on. Most of the wrestlers are just fucking standing there for like ninety percent of them like they're good ones. Don't get me wrong. There are good royal rumbles two thousand one royal rumble. Or cain. Just literally walked. Ask for like an hour and a half for something. Great you fucking through drew over a row for whatever it was wonderful. See 'em punks sermon. On the mound. Gray rumble moment. Stone cold just beating people down looking fantastic like last royal rumble who gives a shit two royal rumbles ago. I honestly can't even remember who won it. hold on. I'm using the brain But no. I definitely agree. And i think it all started going downhill with the age of roman reigns because before then rumbles were always fun not for who was going to win but just for the returns for the people who shows a show up and you get to see all these great returns lately. They've kind of become a little stanky. Seth rollins no way. Not seth was that the brooklyn it. I think maybe has never one drug practice number one. The rock is definitely want royal rumble. Hold on two years ago. The brock versus steph at thirty five and it was. Oh no way it wouldn't have been kofi because it was kofi daniel. Seth brock did seth. What yes that's one. Seth was it. Oh set the year before last. Yeah okay good okay. Yeah then then. Yeah it was. Seth and fucking someone else. It was seth in becky that year like honestly going back to it. The last per- like drew mcintyre winning last year was good. It was fine I don't have anybody that. I was particularly high about winning for the since ever before that he he remember when triple h one yeah. I'm sorry if i may really quickly blake. Tanner shooting scare nah. I can't look back on and be happy. Because i know what happened to him. Yeah up objectively win. The rumble happened. That was a good moment. So i'm going to say taking out what happened after the fact. It was good. But i can't do that right now. I can't ever do that. But yeah no i i always get excited for rumbles always get disappointed by rumbles but for me like going to the concept of a battle royal in general. The other data sat down and went like like the idea. I had for a patriot. Show was sitting down and saying what is the greatest blank match of all time. What's our measuring. Stick match. Like for like helena sell it would be fully versus taker and so i said for a battle royal what would it be and i realized hey w really perfected it with the fucking casino battle royal concept and i do think the greatest of all time maybe that i won at double or nothing because everyone got to get their shit but it was good because as blake.

I okay so this game is huge for the little kids and ninja so this game this game and i think it's time has passed that i do think valorous really kind of put in in in a in a bind in my opinion Although i do think we should mention how much has really impacted the gaming community. Yeah with change. Battling entirely battle pass which i absolutely best off. I could talk about this whole episode because of battle pass you have seen massive massive decrease and microtransactions death. They'll just wanna battle pass and then boom there my questions box you buy the first one and then in the battle pass you make enough currency to buy the next one in every game more you can use that currency then to turn around and buy skins dude you. Yes they're still microtransactions a lot. Actually think about it oughta micro transaction in like two years now because all the currency i gave is just from me by decides the battle past ten dollars for ten dollars for vinyl future to four months Yeah for one battle pass yes. It's awesome also. They were a big component to cross playing because they started it in a lot of everything else. Getting cross play but it wasn't until night that four night Sony has always been against play and when four night finally did it with like the switch and the pc and xbox was it was switch. I think four night was on. I think it came to switch later. i don't i don't know yeah. Maybe but they put in a cross play for at least the xbox and pc and once they did that playstation players were upset. That it's like why. Why are we getting left out. And they had such an uproar about it. That sony had to join up with cross play and now it's like there's no. There's absolutely no excuse now. So then that's why like modern warfare apex and all them sorry keep going all those games have cross. Play am now right and i. I love that. I absolutely love that. You know what. Maybe i'll bring it up from an actually has done a lot Not only that did assume microtransactions. It kinda changed the world for that. It created battle royals in a light that everybody saw because it's not the first battle royal but It definitely put it in a light. It was more viable for everybody. But another huge thing it's created multi-player to be free. Yes games now. The new halo multiplayer free in the new halo warzone warzone. free apex. free. Apex is free. It's created this aspect of like we can create really good multiplayer games now that are just free for users to play free and then it's being paid for by the people that do spend the money on the battle past or finds microtransactions.

"I wish i had the problem. You have to be honest with a really. There's no games for me to play like nothing. There's nothing there's such a. i don't know there's something going on in the game publisher space. And i can't put my finger on it and we've talked about this before but i feel like something is wrong. Yeah i don't know it's a lack of innovation. It's i don't know what it is. It's just sir. There's no there's nothing. I'm looking forward to that. You know i think you're a shooter and the triple eight shooter space. Let's be honest. that's why you like you like aaa shooter. Like it is curiously absent like empty like three or four years ago. They're like everybody was fighting for the aaa shooter. Frye but two things have happened. one is battery. Also of i think a lot of the development and so a lot of you know what would have been a simple. Shooter has gone into battle right and that may be gets the game play ships away from just running gone right here but i also think it's like there's a sense of stability in the category lake the winners one rate. You have call of duty. That's done super well on covered coming back. You have go. That has just always dominated. And now you're valor. And and i think there's a sense of publishers of do i really wanna launched into that you know. Could it be also william that like. I don't know how to how to explain this.
