speaker-0: Yeah.
speaker-2: Let's go!
speaker-1: Welcome on In Doc, good to have you as always.
speaker-2: Alan's great to be back guys. so much gaming going on at the moment and everyone's trying to get their games out in a hurry before GTA hits in in just a couple of weeks' time. So there's this it's so busy in the gaming world at the moment, it's crazy.
speaker-1: So busy, big and bolsterous. Let's talk about the size of GTA six. It just got released.
speaker-2: Yeah, this is this is pretty hefty. The the when you think about modern games and how big they are to install on your hard drives, you sort of think and wonder, why did they only give us a terabyte to put all our games on? So GTA GTA six they've announced for PlayStation five is going to be two hundred and ten gigabytes of storage.
speaker-0: So it's about a quarter of yeah, a quarter of the the hard drive, right?
speaker-2: Yeah, the good thing is there's a good chance you won't be playing any other game for a month or two anyway. Like
speaker-1: Yeah, that's gonna be his soul bag.
speaker-2: any other space for any other game. So you can sort of wipe them, just don't wipe your saves 'cause you might come back to later. But yeah. wow, that is a hefty size of a game of this type, especially. And that's not
speaker-0: twice the size of Red Dead Two.
speaker-1: And that was an amazing detailed game.
speaker-2: Yeah, but I think they said even the map for this is five times the size or something of GTA five. So you know, this is gonna be a pretty big game. Funnily enough, two hundred and ten gigabytes, it's not the biggest game install I've ever seen. You're kidding. What? Yeah, I ran a list of the top five largest console game installs. In it five was Destiny two. That was a hundred and sixty-five gigabytes. Wow. God of War Ragnarok Think about that game and and it's it's basically a single player action adventure. Yeah a hundred and seventy five gigabytes for that one. Really? That was ridiculous. I that there's that has no right to be taking up that much space at one Yeah.
speaker-0: That's that's wild.
speaker-2: Grand Theft Auto six is in at three, two hundred and ten gigabytes. Sure. Then at two we see Call of Duty Black Ops six at two hundred and twenty gigabytes.
speaker-1: Those COD games are not getting any smaller. They love the detail on those games.
speaker-2: They do, and that's why Call of Duty Modern Warfare Three is at number one, two hundred and thirty-five gigabytes of storage.
speaker-1: Houses. Doc, is that just the initial download? No extras on that one as well?
speaker-2: Yeah, that's just the base. Well that for Call of Duty it's the base game, the multiplayer, the the how you can separate it all. So yeah, it is it is the whole
speaker-0: Some those servers were so sweaty, Doc, they couldn't even have another game on their console to play.
speaker-2: Right. Crazy. Like I I know like looking at my looking at my console setup, I've actually had to make a decision on

which console I'm gonna get GTA six on. Because Yeah,
speaker-1: Like the bachelor, doesn't it?
speaker-2: because if I get it on PlayStation 5, I'm gonna have to take Gran Turismo off and I don't wanna do that. But if I get it on Xbox I'm gonna have to take FIFA off and I don't wanna do that. So it's like what am I gonna do?
speaker-0: What are you gonna do
speaker-2: I think it's a it's a PlayStation game for me.
speaker-1: Yeah. Cool. Great. It's the way to play GPA as well.
speaker-0: Welcome to the party.
speaker-1: So are you taking the week off as well, Doc, when it comes around?
speaker-2: what do you mean?
speaker-0: I didn't shy away from it, Doc. I I owned up to it. I said, I'm taking a full week off and it's all GTA, baby.
speaker-2: I love that. I yeah. So I have two masters though, my my employer and my wife. So
speaker-1: One of them's gonna see you. Yeah, yeah. Tell us about Phantom Blade Zero as well. What's what's your thoughts on this?
speaker-2: Yeah, the reviews are all out. They're all really positive. it's not a perfect game by any means, but it's a really solid game. you play as Soul, you're an assassin, and you've brought back to life with only 66 days left to live in order to seek out revenge. I love that this this company that built this game, they started off. This game was originally made on RPG Maker many, many years ago when he was just a kid. Wow. And And he's just evolved and and built on it over time and then it turned into a mobile mobile phone game series. And now it's a triple A title and it's just breaking records and doing amazing stuff. And I really love that for him and and this this world. He's built this world, this phantom world, over many years, and you can tell from playing the game. I think it's really good. I'm not really a Souls like player, so it's not for me. but it is the audience. Yeah, Marcus, I think it's one for you. I think you love it.
speaker-0: I'm built for this. I literally just finished another my eighth playthrough of Dark Souls One yesterday.
speaker-2: I tell you what I do what I do love about this game is that they got a stack of motion capture people in to actually to to show them how to dance and the sword fighting dancing. And I love that. Like it is y when you're playing it, it feels more like a a a choreography of of moves rather than just button mashing.
speaker-0: Doc, have I c I don't know if I've confused my games, but is this the one that has Donny Yen as our lead protagonist?
speaker-2: It totally does, yeah. It is, yes.
speaker-1: Have you had your eyes on it?
speaker-0: yeah, I've been keen on this one for
speaker-2: is brilliant.
speaker-0: the master.
speaker-2: Yeah, totally. Yeah.
speaker-1: So that one is out. and also we want to know the indie game of the week as well.
speaker-2: Yeah, cool. Okay, so we've got an indie game this week that I have fallen in love with. I so every now and again something comes out. And I've been slightly obsessed this year with roguelikes. Yeah. Sure. so you know, like the Slay the Spire and even you know, Blackjacket and stuff that I've brought up previously. Yeah. This one is called Dog in the Machine. Okay. And basically, you it's a tactile rogue, a tactical roguelite. Yeah. where you play autodog, who's this robotic dog who has to escape a dystopian mecha city and reunite with its exiled humans. It's so much fun. You like bash an enemy and it'll move back three spaces and then hit the enemy behind it. See, there's all sorts of moves like that that you can do. The animation is what captured me. I love the game and and and I'm right into strategy and tactical games at the moment. I mean I'm in a phase, you could say. But the the animation grabbed me straight away because the robot and the animation it kinda looks a bit like Dino Mutt from the old Hanobarbera cartoons. Sure. So it's like a robotic version of that. It feels very Hanna Barbera, the whole thing, but just beautifully animated and definitely one worth worth investing in. I think it's it's it's only cheap on Steam too. So go pick it up, go support an indie game and and I really highly recommend this one.
speaker-0: I just googled it, Doc, just to have a look at some photos of it. It looks fantastic. although I wouldn't recommend typing in dog in the machine because now I've got a bunch of photos of dogs in washing machines. Yeah.
speaker-2: Dog in the machine video game or dog in the machine that's Make sure you listen to it.
speaker-1: Are we adding a new genre into the video game world of like dog like games or something like that?
speaker-2: Dog light games, I love that.
speaker-1: That'd be awesome. Hey Doc, you've also got we got Halloween coming up tomorrow actually and you've got some Halloween picks.
speaker-2: Yeah, I've just dropped an article. It's really cool. Thirteen top horror games that you can play this Halloween. I love a good horror game. Yeah. I love the the the jump scares. There's actually, you know what? Even games that aren't horror that have jump scares. there's a moment in, I think, Batman Arkham Knight. Man Bat. Man Bat. Yeah. If you haven't jumped at Manbat, you're climbing up the ladder and you get to the top of the building and then boom, Man Bat jumps out. And your heart just really is, yeah. So I've got a stack of games on there worth playing. Dor Blood of the Dornwalker is on there. We've got Alien Isolation 2's made the list as well. Tormented Souls. There's a new one called Remothered, Red Red Nuns Legacy, which is the latest in a trilogy of games. I rec I highly recommend going back and playing them. Silent Hill Town falls on the list. Of course, Resident Evil Requiem, which is the greatest Resident Evil game ever made, in my opinion. And the number one game, Clive Barker's Hellraiser Revival.
speaker-1: Number one
