Let's do this. Welcome everybody to another episode of the Gamer Traffic Show. I'm your host, Mike Sampson, joined by my co-host.
Speaker 2:CP, Amazing how you doing today.
Speaker 1:Everybody get up for Mr Amazing. On today's Gamer Traffic Show, we're going to talk about the latest Transform movie trailer transform movie trailer and we also gonna talk about Xbox video games. Doing well on PlayStation wasn't about another Xbox thing, mr maze. Xbox 360 games are on fire for sale, mr maze. Not for sale and a price range, but begin today's show talking about guess what, mr amazing.
Speaker 2:Xbox.
Speaker 1:Yep yo Xbox, your Xbox games are doing well on the PlayStation store. Maybe you're talking about it and we personally came out the games, but other people did care about those games that came with the PlayStation. That includes the Fallout games, but we don't I mean the games we talk about previously, the games that there was recently yeah, stuff like that.
Speaker 1:But they also clued in, cuz you know Xbox has bought the creators of fallout, so that's also cool. On the list of the top selling games on PlayStation store, fallout force number 16. Fallout 76, number 20. Call of Duty has done number 2. Overwatch number 7. Minecraft number 19. Mr Amazing's Sea of Thieves number 12. Grounded 23. Mr Amazing, microsoft has 7 of the top 25 best-selling games on the PlayStation Store right now. Mr Amazing, are you impressed? Are you amazed? Mr Amazing, talk to us. I mean this is what Xbox wanted.
Speaker 2:This isn't what Game Pass we're going to have on every system, on every.
Speaker 1:Well, it's not Game Pass, isn't it?
Speaker 2:No, I know, but their goal was to have a Game Pass on every system. So the fact that you see Microsoft selling well on Sony Store is the vision that they saw to have Microsoft on every platform there is. So this may not, I know it's not Game Pass, but this is Microsoft's dream.
Speaker 2:So to have seven out of the top 25 games on Sony beat Microsoft, that's pretty impressive and this is what they always wanted. So I think that's a great feature for them and I think it also helps that these are games that people always wanted to play. But there's like, is it worth buying Sony? I mean, what's cool I got?
Speaker 1:I to call you out. Fallout, Come on. Fallout is an older game that came out before Microsoft took over with Western and other companies?
Speaker 2:No, but those are games that people wanted to play, though, but Fallout is a popular game.
Speaker 1:But also, you got to say, fallout sales also contributed to the Fallout TV series.
Speaker 2:Oh, of course, I think it does coincide.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:You want to show. Oh, of course I think it does coincide. Yes, you know, you are just sure you're not your person. All I see what this game is about now. Of course you can definitely coincide with that. I don't disagree with that at all. But I think this is just the beginning. I think so Microsoft games are gonna do well with Sony system, because for those who don't wanna on Microsoft Xbox, this is the perfect opportunity for them to finally play Sony games. So my, as Microsoft continues to release their games to Sony, I think the numbers are going to continue to do well.
Speaker 1:But let me ask you a question, and I know there's probably several players who probably Xbox we'll say gamers at one time or still are, but also play.
Speaker 2:well, probably Xbox gamers we'll say Xbox gamers who bought a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 and were curious PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5, and we're curious to play these games, absolutely, yeah, I mean, many had feared that this was going to be the doom of Xbox, like, oh man, this is it. They're dropping Microsoft games on Sony. That's it, the new gen of this generation. It's over.
Speaker 1:Nah man.
Speaker 2:I think it's the best of both worlds. Who knows, maybe we might start seeing. So we do the same thing, why not?
Speaker 1:but oh, look, somebody just called, called us what they said.
Speaker 2:Oh, what they said, that's what sony said but at the end of the day, sony might not do that, but for xbox guess what? It's a win-win revenue's coming in.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the only thing I said about PlayStation. I know allegedly they were saying that Sony's new PlayStation head was maybe in talks with Microsoft regarding Helldivers 2 going there.
Speaker 2:That's big, which I doubt.
Speaker 1:I doubt that's big, I doubt it.
Speaker 2:If they do that, that's big.
Speaker 1:I mean, what percentage do you give it?
Speaker 2:I think it's so popular, it took off so well and that'll be big for Sony and their revenue also. So I'm going to give that actually a 50%.
Speaker 1:I'll give it 10%, I'll give it a 50%.
Speaker 2:As a matter of fact, I didn't give it 10%, I'll give it 2%. I think it's 2%. No, I disagree with you.
Speaker 1:You think if Sony had Call of Duty, they'd be giving that to Microsoft?
Speaker 2:If Sony had Call of Duty.
Speaker 1:Call of Duty yes.
Speaker 2:You know what it is. I know, yeah, you're going to say no, I think it's because it's too new, because of what Microsoft did with Aquarium Studios. But I think, give it a year. Yeah, I think right now it's too new. This is what Sony's thinking it's like. Okay, I think they're angry. Still, they're not over the purchase. So right now, yes, no is the correct answer on surface, but if you talk financially, profit then yes, Well, let me also go this way.
Speaker 1:Remember, at a recent Game of the Velva conference, a couple of developers complained why are we supporting this Xbox, where it's like the smallest fan base well, game of base, well, gamer base out of three major systems?
Speaker 2:Well, they got studios and you don't.
Speaker 1:That's the answer they got the studios and you don't. But I'm not saying I mean. My thing is why would Sony put their stuff on the platform without a small game base? Yes, for PC it makes sense, but for Xbox, why?
Speaker 2:I'd rather put it in a Nintendo Switch. Yeah, and more people. Yes, I agree with you on that. But guess what? Microsoft's the one with the best studio. You've got no choice.
Speaker 1:No, not the studio. That studio has nothing to do with that.
Speaker 2:No, but I'm saying, I'm just saying I'm talking for Helldiver 2. That's what I'm talking about?
Speaker 1:Oh, you're just saying in general, why? Yeah, but like you said, you branch out to PC and you'll get the money. Hell's Diapers 2 is already on PC, on PlayStation 5. Exactly, that's what's on. I'm just saying what? Would it make sense for Sony to really go to get a platform that's really it's a smaller platform out of three major consoles? And, yes, if they say yo, we're going to toss with Nintendo. Yeah, get that money.
Speaker 2:Yeah, of course.
Speaker 1:Nintendo has over 130 million consoles out there. But yeah, get that money, Of course.
Speaker 2:That's what you're saying Get that money, get that back, get that deposit. How does that benefit us? Hey?
Speaker 1:it's a new market. You see Microsoft doing this I mean sorry, playstation doing it. We'll let you have one Helldiver 2, but Helldiver 3, you ain't gonna get that. You'll have to come to Sony.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can see that it's a tease. Here's what I'm gonna teach you guys, but I'm gonna grab you. You're gonna have to get it from me directly.
Speaker 1:But also, I think that's Microsoft's strategy too as well, With some high front rush. We'll give you this right now, but if you want to play the next installment of this, you got to come to Xbox, which makes sense.
Speaker 2:You can run long game. I'm not mad at that. It means competition, right, competition is good for us. It's about money.
Speaker 1:No, it is about money, so it comes down to revenue.
Speaker 2:But from what you're asking me, is Sony really winning giving them a game to a platform that doesn't have nearly half the sales as we do? Is that a win for us? Like you said, if I'm going to do that, nintendo's like hey, we don't got the power to hold this.
Speaker 1:Which is most likely true. They probably have the cloud streamers or they have that game to play on there, probably Alright, mr Mason. Anything else you want to say about this? Nah, but I like what microsoft's doing, all right. Well, like I said myself, mr man did protect earlier this year, microsoft have a big year, so that's the way we looked at it, but not the way we looked at it.
Speaker 2:Maybe we're talking about games when we spoke about it what is there then?
Speaker 1:there, there's a new hard. What stuff they doing? I mean, they're giving a couple games to platforms, other platforms Well, they are.
Speaker 2:I mean they are, but this is what they want. They want to reach out in other ways. You know what I'm curious?
Speaker 1:about, yeah, how they sell on Nintendo.
Speaker 2:Switch.
Speaker 1:That's a good question. That's what I'm curious about. We got to check it out. Probably we don't have to check out this episode, but next episode. We got to follow up, hopefully follow up and check it out. So we got to follow up on that. But, mr Mason, let's go to our next topic. We continue with Microsoft. Microsoft, xbox 360 games. Prices are on fire. Mr Mason, what you got to say about that son?
Speaker 2:So go ahead, explain to me what prices are. Fine, you're talking about. The prices are going up. Is that what you're?
Speaker 1:referring to man, I can't say it's fire, son fire. You know what I'm talking about. It's rising sun rising.
Speaker 2:You don't know, bro.
Speaker 1:No, no, no I'll give you a couple sales. Mr amazing, please do the okay. Spider-man Edge of Time. Yo loose it's $53. Complete box $63. Brand new son $133.
Speaker 2:Wow, wow, that's up there, don't laugh.
Speaker 1:I laughed, I giggled, my Horse and Me. Part 2. Loose $59. Okay, Complete box $68,. Mr Amazing Brand box 68, Mr Amazing Brand new 220 bucks. But why? I have no idea, Mr Amazing, I notice it's the collector's edition, practically not the one that's skyrocketing the most.
Speaker 2:I mean, is there a reason behind this?
Speaker 1:That game is probably very rare. That's the reason I could think of Could be that too. The game is very rare. That's the reason I could think of Could be that too.
Speaker 2:Game is very rare. It's amazing. That's a big price, Joe. That's amazing.
Speaker 1:F1 2013. Yeah Loose, $36. Complete box $250. Sorry, I'm correct, $255. Okay, brand new, $460. But these games were dropped, on which? These are physical copies, mr Mazin.
Speaker 2:Physical copies Some of these games were on the 360, though right.
Speaker 1:Yes, that makes sense. These are 360 games.
Speaker 2:We're talking about, mr Mazin, that makes sense, though, because, as we know, we should be touching it later. A lot of these 360 games are going on. The marketplace is going to be shut down, so maybe that's what we're going to get.
Speaker 1:What marketplace? I don't know what marketplace. We know that games have been deleted. Yes, you know what I'm saying? Because of music rights, whatever. Yeah, we've seen digital games get deleted.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but remember, you're talking about physical copies, right?
Speaker 1:Physical copies, sir, but these are 360 games.
Speaker 2:But remember, Microsoft is no longer going to be supporting the 360 marketplace anymore. So, I think that's what's contributing to the price hike.
Speaker 1:Yeah, which is most likely probably true. Yeah, I would say, participates in the price hike as well. But, mr Amazing, guess what? I can't believe this. Mr Amazing, I was shocked. Surprise, hoodwink, nba Elite 13. Loose, don't Surprise, hoodwink, nba Elite 13. Loose, don't know. Unknown Complete box Worth over $6,000. Wow, $6,000 to $10,000.
Speaker 2:You don't get that downstairs anymore.
Speaker 1:Nope.
Speaker 2:That's crazy. You got to have a niche for this, though.
Speaker 1:I mean it's a rare game, Wow.
Speaker 2:I might have that Burger King game downstairs somewhere.
Speaker 1:Because after that, another of these games have never been released.
Speaker 2:Wow, did we play that.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:We 2K baby. I thought we might have tried it out though. Yeah, we did it though. Right, I mean 2K baby. I thought we might have tried it out, though. Yeah, we didn't. Though right.
Speaker 1:I mean there's the copies that were ported. What $4,000? It's like the same thing with the NCAA football game. Of course I don't think it was worth that much money, but it was worth a lot of money, I think, the last one they came out with I forgot the price range at that for the last one For the last NCAA football game.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so that would have been the 2014? Yeah, 2014.
Speaker 1:That's a good price that goes for a good amount of money.
Speaker 2:Oh, I didn't know that. I don't know Because that was the last one that was released. Yeah, oh, okay.
Speaker 1:We need to discuss this, we need to remember.
Speaker 2:I remember that, mr Amazing.
Speaker 1:What do you think of this, Mr Amazing?
Speaker 2:If you got him, you're a rich man.
Speaker 1:There's probably other games we just didn't mention, but these are some of the games that prices have risen high, more high than the games we have now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, mike, man, go in the basement and look and see what you got. Man, you might have to lay it around, man.
Speaker 1:And Mr Amazing tried to diss me, not diss me Say that I only have 200 games in my collection because I fight a guy, a gentleman's name, who has a Guinness World Record of games. I count my collection, my physical collection. I have over 400 games in my collection.
Speaker 2:Did you count through?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I did count through after you tried to play me on that Friday. Play over 400 games. That's pretty good. This is not included. This is not included the digital games.
Speaker 2:That's pretty good. My man, that's pretty good. Yeah, yo, that's what he did, but what he miscounted was the fact that I got a couple at my house.
Speaker 1:No, I didn't know, Not that couple. It's a couple I gave to him. This dude never played them Yo yo, I gave this dude. Probably Last of Us. I think it was against Last of Us. I think I gave you. Did I give you Sleeping Dogs? I played Sleeping Dogs.
Speaker 2:You did give me Sleeping Dogs. I played it though.
Speaker 1:You didn't beat it. Though I didn't beat it, you can play it, but I didn't beat it though. I don't know if I gave you Horizon Zero Dawn. You did.
Speaker 2:You did. It's so funny because I always thought it's weird. Because I love the game, I love it. I play four or five hours or two and I stop. Then I restart it again, same thing. I just keep stopping, and I don't know why. It's not because I don't like it, it's a very good game. It's just me. It's you. It's you, no, it's me.
Speaker 1:It's like you're chopping up the girl or the guy, whatever.
Speaker 2:I just want to let you know. It is you, mr Amazing, absolutely but my take is how much?
Speaker 1:I'd say it's three games of work. That's what I'm wondering about, because I think this is the last generation where you they're going to have physical copies, where people try to collect for the PS3 and Xbox 360 before the PS4. You know a lot of games. They come incomplete. You got to do 10,000 patches.
Speaker 2:Oh, you're talking about games before DLCs became a thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, big patches, you know extra stuff. So yeah, playstation 3 and the 360 era. Most of the time, games came complete.
Speaker 2:Completely yeah, and there are no patches.
Speaker 1:There was a part two, I mean there's probably patches as well, but not to the extent where we got now where the PlayStation 4 is going to find. But most of the patches are like bugs, to fix bugs, not like, because, like I, said, when games come released, you're not getting the whole game, you're just getting a game that hopefully they hope there's no bugs, but later on you find out there's bugs in do this patch, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 2:But that's funny because at that time those games were taking longer, were quicker, they were quicker, they were quicker. But yeah, bugs I don't know.
Speaker 1:Like I said, like I told you before, that's why you see games come out. They can't have no PlayStation Direct, like when it has a live show PlayStation, that's how they call it. They live show playstation, that's how they call it.
Speaker 2:They have those playstation showcased live.
Speaker 1:It's a place of experience. Yeah, they can have it, because they take four or five years for the games to come out. I know, I know. So it made no sense to hold those uh right, because it's about games in 2035.
Speaker 2:yeah, 2035.
Speaker 1:yeah 2024. Yeah, so it's kind of hard to hold those press comp, those big like events or problems like that, could the games take? Conference like that.
Speaker 2:It does become more difficult Because the games take a few years to come out.
Speaker 1:It does, it is more difficult. No one's going to sit there and, oh, the games are going to come out five years from now. Why are we wasting our time coming here and coming in 2035, spider-man?
Speaker 2:3.
Speaker 1:Damn the press thing. Mr Amazing anything else you want to say about that topic nah, nah. Mr. Amazing let's go to the world TV Fallout, the TV show Mr Amazing. It's doing well on Amazon. I heard one of the top. It's like one of the top web shows, web streaming shows on.
Speaker 1:Amazon, mr Amazing, it was killing it in the UK charts. Wow, you know what I'm saying. So, mr Amazing, when you think about this, but also I wouldn't far as let you think about it it's also improved the sales of the Fallout game as well, mr Amazing.
Speaker 2:That's cool. I expect that, though. I mean when a game slash TV show does look it coincides with cells also. We seen it with others last of us last of us. Yeah, this is evil evil. Those corny movie, those corny anime movies, which makes sense, though, oh have you watched it?
Speaker 1:I think I just watched it. I've been watching a lot of X-Men.
Speaker 2:Okay 97.
Speaker 1:I haven't watched it. I'm going to get on it, but right now no.
Speaker 2:I haven't watched it yet. My thing is can you watch it without knowing the basis of it?
Speaker 1:I think you could. Okay, a lot of people caught on this, I think, over.
Speaker 2:And could you be a non-gamer and watch?
Speaker 1:it, Of course, for a lot of non-gamers watching it.
Speaker 2:Oh okay, that's the most important thing. If you get a non-gamer caught on watching it, you probably got your friends.
Speaker 1:If it's like you know whether it's Netflix or you know other sites, they put the top 10. You know other sites to put the top 10. You all look at the top of the top to me Check it out.
Speaker 2:What's so good about you right? Because actually when all that was came out, no, the gentleman I work with you, know he's in his mid 70s.
Speaker 1:He loves Guarding did you watch that? Simply did you watch that? Yet At the first season of blu-ray, you're telling me about it.
Speaker 2:Hold on, man, let me get there. I have the first season on Blu-ray if you want to watch it?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I do. Actually I have to. Yeah, I want to Because I don't have HBO Max on.
Speaker 2:But I cut that off. I cut it off. I cut it off.
Speaker 1:you know it comes back when Game of Thrones is about to come out, so it I think the TV shows have more success than the movies. Adaption a lot quicker. I agree the first Super Mario was crappy. Yeah, mortal Kombat is a co-class, but ain't gonna win the best movie award no, no, no.
Speaker 2:The TV shows. What makes it better is cause you can build on it. Movies got one shot to get it right. You know TV can build on it yeah.
Speaker 1:so, mr Mason, you had anything else you wanted to follow on the TV show?
Speaker 2:No, that's it, but keep it up. I hope I can watch next month.
Speaker 1:I'm going to watch it, probably this. I'm probably going to start watching it this week.
Speaker 2:No, not this week.
Speaker 1:I'm going to. All right, mr Mason, let's go to movies. Transform one. Okay, no, I was surprised by it but, yo, let's kick it off. All right, you'll transfer one the trailer.
Speaker 2:So how long do you think we'll be here? I'm not talking to you. You know what we are, so screwed Thought you weren't talking to me. You two come with me. Report to Waste Management. Hi there, I'm B-127. I'm actually working on some nicknames. The one I'm floating right now is Badassatron, which is actually pronounced Badassatron. Um, we're gonna call you B. I know we're just lowly worker bots who can't even transform. Don't you want to see what's out there? There's a reason no one goes to the surface. It's dangerous. Why'd you bring?
Speaker 1:jetpacks. If we survive this, I'm gonna kill you. I accept those terms.
Speaker 2:The surface it's beautiful. You have proven yourself worthy. Take these and access your full potential. It's time to show them. We are more than meets the eye. We can transform now On three one it's working. Transform now On three one Aaaaaah, aaaaaah, ha, it's working. Where's my head? How do we use these things? Aaaaaah, look at wheels. I need wheels. Woo, uh guys, that's not good. We've got these powers for a reason let's use them.
Speaker 1:We stand here together as one. Mr Amazing transformed one trailer. Mr Amazing, do we green light it, red light it, yellow light it? What's up with this?
Speaker 2:That's an easy goal, that's a green light for me, man. Yo, I totally agree, mr Amazing when.
Speaker 1:I first saw this trailer no, before I saw this trailer, I was very skeptical about this. I was being very light hearted. I was like this this trailer? No, before I saw this trailer, I was very skeptical about this. I was being very light hearted. I was like well, this is BS.
Speaker 2:No, it's good.
Speaker 1:But I saw the trailer, I was actually impressed. Yeah, you could tell they had some comedy elements.
Speaker 2:A lot of it actually.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I see how Optimus Prime and Megatron created their relationship.
Speaker 2:It's cool because we're going to eventually lead to the daffle. Yeah, see what led between them. It's always vision.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it was Bumblebee, seemed entertaining.
Speaker 2:Yeah, of course Bumblebee always is.
Speaker 1:Not always entertaining. Now he's going to talk.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's true. Remember the Michael Bay movie.
Speaker 1:What the fuck is this nonsense? You know what I'm saying. So Scarlett Johansson's in the movie she plays leader bleed, leader one. Chris Hemworth is in the movie. He plays office prime Henry Tyreek. Brian Henry Tyreek plays Megatron yeah, looks good.
Speaker 2:Actually, star started. Definitely I'm gonna see dropping mic, you told me in September, mr manning, of this year so, beginning of fall, we have some good things to look forward to Back to school and Transformers. 1.
Speaker 1:Some kids might think back to school is a great idea.
Speaker 2:Well for the parents it is. So, no, but it's a good way to leave the fall season. Yeah, so me and Mr Amazing we like this.
Speaker 1:You know what I'm saying, so yo let's hopefully. It's a great movie. It's funny. One of the movies we greenlighted, I think it was Imaginary with the bear, the horror movie.
Speaker 2:Oh God, you greenlighted that.
Speaker 1:I greenlighted that. You didn't greenlight it. I greenlighted that. I take full responsibility for that. That movie absolutely sucked. Yeah, that was your greenlight. Three weeks later it was on digital.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'll never be like that. Okay, mr Basin, the only one, the bear movie that I probably wouldn't have. What?
Speaker 1:Did you see I?
Speaker 2:know, I'm gonna watch this weekend. Actually I'm gonna watch this weekend actually. I'm glad you find a low key him. I'm not gonna see it. All right, I mean, where's the Amazon Prime was on Netflix?
Speaker 1:Alcohol required watch this movie. Okay, we're crying, it's watching. Watching this talk about Is alcohol required to watch this movie? No no no, is cocaine required to watch the movie.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, but it's Watch it. Watch it, and then let's talk about it All right.
Speaker 1:All right, Mr Maisy. Well, I'll think about it.
Speaker 2:All right, but for this one we both green light.
Speaker 1:Yes, we did, mr Mazin. Let's go to our Shibby Care topic of the week. All right, mr Mazin, xbox Microsoft. They say yo, yo, yo, let's join the credit card business. They have a credit card coming out. It's already out in the States. Mr Mazin, the Xbox MasterCard Earn points every purchase, damn it. Redeem card points on games, add on hardware and much more on Xboxcom, mr Amazing. Nice, what do you think about this, mr Amazing, I don't care because I don't want to have the bill.
Speaker 2:I mean it has perks.
Speaker 1:Can you give an example of perks?
Speaker 2:Yeah, this is honestly for Xbox. I mean it's an Xbox card but like it's ideal for those who are into the Xbox and then good digital contact with it. Because the points you use usually you know you have high mileage points, you spend at this store, you get points, you can do a cashback or you touch your next purchase, but with this one, the points you get, you can go and buy digital content with it on your Microsoft. So for those with Xbox who plays a lot of digital games, this is ideal for you. So I shouldn't say who cares, but if you're a Microsoft user.
Speaker 1:This is ideal for you I mean, I'm going to cut you off here. One of the bonuses they have a bonus of 500 points, card points, which is a value of $50 for the first purchase. That's cool, so you get those points. Three months of Xbox Game Pass unlimited for new Game Pass members after their first purchase.
Speaker 2:That's cool and one of the key things I forgot. You forgot to mention no annual fee. Can't go wrong with that oh yeah, that's great so no, it's cool, but I don't see a non-gay xbox gamer. I don't see the purpose of it for you, just unless you just want to have a cool xbox card in your hand. But honestly I don't.
Speaker 1:I don't see the point, for it is for you yeah also, you also get three months on spot Spotify for new members. That's cool.
Speaker 2:I mean a lot of companies do that now too, but, like I said, it's cool.
Speaker 1:You also get contact. What was it? Contactless payment and digital wallets.
Speaker 2:Hey, that's A You're like okay, I gotta say it ain't. Hey, are you like okay? Not mad at it though I do think it the purse or worship though for Xbox Gamer. Alright, so we can lie little and not all, mr Mason. My purpose a little, it does do a lot for those who use credit and got an Xbox.
Speaker 1:My thing is lose credit wisely, everybody, and this is my thing, I don't care at all.
Speaker 2:Do you think I?
Speaker 1:care. I don't care if it's a PlayStation 1. I don't care if it's a Nintendo Switch.
Speaker 2:I don't care at all, I wouldn't buy either, or I just wouldn't.
Speaker 1:I see some of the perks with it, but eh.
Speaker 2:It's like how much you got spent if you get those perks. You know what.
Speaker 1:I'm saying yeah. So it's just like eh. And I don't even know the interest rate on this.
Speaker 2:Yeah, probably that's why they didn't list it.
Speaker 1:Mr Amazing, we'll Gangsta Winks of the Week Are you? Yes, you do, mr Mason, uh-oh.
Speaker 2:I had a Gangsta Winks of the Week. What's my Gangsta Winks of the Week, man?
Speaker 1:Yo, you told me you got this. Gangsta Winks of the Week is a basketball player, Mr Mason.
Speaker 2:Oh, the Jonte Porter.
Speaker 1:Yes, Mr Mason. Oh man, this is.
Speaker 2:It sucks. So, Gangster Marks of the Week. We're going to start off by a family that made it.
Speaker 1:Let's put it like this he won't be a Gangster of the Week. He might be born with gangsters, but we'll see why.
Speaker 2:It's not just sad.
Speaker 1:It's a mixture of the story actually, so I'll keep it short, though. Keep it short.
Speaker 2:So let's start with the famous one. Michael Porter Jr plays for the Denver Nuggets world 2020-2023 NBA world champ team. Michael Porter has a younger brother anyway, he has a brother who plays for the Toronto. I love different Toronto Raptors John T Porter and mr Porter. He did the dumbest thing you could do when it comes to sports. He guys and guys and girls.
Speaker 2:He gambled and we all know, in any sport that you play and that you're an athlete, you are not allowed to gamble To the point where they saw them in games. He would make lies saying he was sick, to the point that he was betting on himself. He wouldn't score. He wouldn't do things affecting the outcome of games possible, everything investigation they said he didn't. You know, he didn't really affect outcome of games. But they won't tell us that truth because it's embarrassing it's still.
Speaker 2:It could affect our common games yeah, but it's impressive, so they probably made it so because of this. The nba decided to show jonte porter what what happens to those who gamble, even though I think this is excessive, to be honest with you, they decided he's the first player in modern NBA to be banned for gambling man Banned?
Speaker 1:for what Life, mr Mason? For life, life.
Speaker 2:This is crazy. And I do think it's excessive though I agree, I thought maybe give him a year or two years life is excessive, no, but they did the same with Floyd.
Speaker 1:I disagree with you. That's excessive. I disagree. No, you shouldn't be gambling. Paul Lane Bull crap. Mr Mason. No, You're right.
Speaker 2:Rules are rules, rules are rules. But the reason I think it's that man for life. They're going to bet him for maybe a couple of months to a year. That's why it's who did it.
Speaker 1:He might have got banned. He might have, but we don't know.
Speaker 2:A big star was not getting banned. They had to make a point. It's a low-level guy.
Speaker 1:They made a point on a low-level guy, but I'm not mad at him, but why would let's and millions of dollars on? The court and off the court.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but Jonte Porter wasn't. I mean, yes, he wasn't making millions of dollars, but he had a decent salary. He had a livable salary, which was way more than you and I and way more than the average person. So, from the good of that he took a geeky mess of his career Too bad. Lucky for him, his brother is famous and plays in the NBA.
Speaker 2:Too bad for him, but I do. I still think that it was a bit excessive though. I do think that, though, but at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what I think. Pull the shotgun.
Speaker 1:Put the shotgun. I'll pull the shotgun out for him. I'll pull the shotgun out for him. Yo, number one, you shouldn't do that. Number two, you make enough money, number, to play in the NBA basketball league, maybe not? You're going to chip, I guess, maybe not. And now he's abused that thing. Are you involved with gangsters? Are you involved with bookies? Are they involved? So it's too many questions, sorry, mr Amazing, he gets what. Mr Amazing, he gets it the Waster of the Week. Damn it, idiot.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was a bad call, yo was a bad call.
Speaker 1:Yo, mr May, do you have a shout-out? Don't have a shout-out of the week, mr May, I do, I do, actually I do man?
Speaker 2:It's sports winning again, but this time it's not basketball. The shout-out of the week I'm going to give to this guy and it's crazy, I'm giving this guy a shout-out of the week, because I'm never a Yankee fan but I like his call and he's been broadcasting Yankees for a while. The Yankees win. The Yankees win. How many years was?
Speaker 1:it, it's decades. I don't even know, to be honest with you.
Speaker 2:Like I said, I'm not a Yankee fan, but I did like his call and he's known for the very famous thing every time the Yankees win a game, the Yankees win, and then he'll repeat it and repeat it after more he's fighting. Time for broadcasting.
Speaker 1:And I thought that he was I did like listening to him play games. My chance will be taken over. Yeah, don't tell Michael K that He'll look like you crazy.
Speaker 2:So yeah, he gets you know a shout out.
