Hi, it's Larry Herbexboxes, Major Nelson. Welcome to the official Xbox podcast. We're back this week. Thank you for liking, subscribing and joining this amazing gaming journey with us. We're going to I'm going to hit a button here, magical button and there's. Wait, what are we doing here?

Uh, what? Where is she? Uh, well, I actually she Rebecca is not joining us this week. She should we tell should we tell folks what happened because I think it's actually pretty interesting. She yeah, yeah, it's it's hot out folks as as well. Yeah, well, this is not the weather part of the conversation, but as as as as you know, Rebecca is is in New York. She lives in New York and her apartment apparently the air conditioner quit. And when that happens in July, that's bad.

So she could not join us today because I'm sure it's upwards of 90 plus degrees in our apartment alone. So we have given her a pass and said, you know what, totally get it. So we will go to the very rare. Let's stretch out. Here we go. This is we're in these luxury lanes here. We got we got bumped up to a economy plus. Yeah, we are now in a one by one as opposed to a one by three or something. Exactly. This is good see pit. I think it's funny that I rag on you for bringing up the weather.

All the time and what happened. Weather happened weather. Weather is as exact as revenge. So man, I just hearing our you know co workers at London and all of Europe really, you know, sweating it out and obviously throughout the country. I'm actually going to a wedding in Austin this weekend. And I am not prepared. Oh, it's we'll be lucky to hit double digits as the overnight low. So.

Yeah, stay cool everybody. You know, we talk about the like I know we jug and we're here. We are again. We're talking about the weather all the time, but I really want to I mean as a former weather person you.

Yes, not meteorologist, but a weather person. I kind of want to kind of want you to get a get a weather map in the back of the city. We'll do we'll do one of these. Okay, we've got a high pressure, a ridge as they call it. Come again, bringing in that hot air from the desert Southwest and knocked out one third of the podcast.

We're going to well done well done way to bring it back home. We're going to talk about what we're playing this week because we are playing a bunch of things.

I got to tell you Jeff, could we talk about as dusk falls now available on Game Pass? Yes, yeah, let's let's.

You know, I'd love to hear your experience. I was part of a really fun experience last weekend.

With kind of funny and a few hundred folks that that we're able to join us in LA. But why don't you go first? I want to hear your.

Well, you know, last week we need to ride Caroline from interior nights, which is she is, you know, the CEO and talked a little bit about what it's okay. You're right.

I thought I muted and I totally did. You did not.

But, but you know, I started playing as dusk falls. You and I got early access to the game last week. And do you remember what I texted you after the first chapter?

Well, you weren't even at the end of the first chapter. You were like maybe halfway through the first chapter.

You chapters about an hour and you were like, I don't know yet. You were kind of you were very, you were very medium on, I would say.

Well, I have completely turned the corner and I am so into this story right now that I'm playing it in between meetings.

Like it's really, yeah, I'm like sitting here and I'm like playing it in between meetings and I cannot wait to see where this goes.

It is, it is, and I told you this off the air, but I'll say it again. It is like the craziest story arcs in Game of Thrones because you're like, wait, what?

That person's that person? Wait, that's what? Wow. So it is, it is a lot of fun. It is a lot of very edge of your seat.

And I'm playing, I'm playing it by myself.

I haven't had a chance to play it with other folks yet and I know you and I talked about maybe streaming it, but I just, I'm having a great time.

This is an amazing story and it just goes to show you how important and how powerful, great writing, great performance and a great story is in video games.
