What's up everybody welcome to IJane Gamescope the first episode of 2021 and I'm sure all of our listeners and viewers here in the United States would agree the years off to just a great start sure is nice to have the madness of 2020 finally behind us.

0:20.0

I'm David Hatfield joining us this week is Tina Amini happy ish new year everybody.

0:25.0

Justin Davis and Sam Clayborn. Hey, I just wanted to say what's up just to you Damon. First time ever. Thank you. I appreciate that. I feel I feel seen.

0:37.0

We've got a great show for you this week we're going to talk a little bit more about cyberpunk again because a few of us have beat it now a couple of us I mean.

0:44.0

We have to talk about the price of the PlayStation 5 and we're going to be flipping through a couple of oddities the acclaim masters of the game. Advertorial at magazines that were put out many many years ago.

0:57.0

But first I wanted to show everybody my new computer mouse can you see it here. Oh my goodness. Yeah, it's a fashion like an NES controller and the buttons are not they're not clicky.

1:11.0

They're like very spongy feeling just like an NES controller looks like when you looked in the back of a Nintendo power and be like look at the NES advantage and the NES max and like all these controllers are like that just looks like a stretched out game controller in a weird way.

1:25.0

It's such a good design. It's totally ergonomically correct. I'm sure.

1:30.0

Oh yeah. I think I already have a bruise on my wrist. It's a computer mouse. Are you are you PC gaming now?

1:39.0

No. Because you know who is? You guys have jump ship. Well, it's just because of cyberpunk. I think we just got another ship in our moda. I don't know if we jump ship.

1:51.0

Yeah. We jump ships multiple times. They call it something when you tie the votes together and you jump around between them.

1:59.0

I learned this in Texas. Oh, is that what they call it? I don't know. I only have PC right now. I don't need own any votes at the moment. It's a piece using consoles and handhelds. That's what it is.

2:12.0

Anyway, you guys you have been gaming cyberpunk on your PCs. It's been a couple of weeks since we last talked about cyberpunk. I've beaten it.

2:23.0

I know I can now share my verdicts, my final feelings on the game. But Tina, what do we start with you and Justin just to be clear, have you haven't played any more cyberpunk?

2:35.0

No, I put it down, but not because I wasn't liking it, but I was liking it so much that I was playing it on 1080p on my PC because that's how powerful my PC is.

2:46.0

So I played it enough that I'm like, I love this game. And so I put it down in order to play it on PS5 when those versions are out and I can actually play it in 4K. So either whichever happens first either when the native next gen version comes out or when I get a new gaming PC, they can play it in 4K.

3:02.0

I wanted to save the second half of the game for when I could experience it at its maximum. But you know, as I'm sure we're going to get into like clearly bugs, clearly problems, but man, I really, really loved what I played of cyber cyberpunk.

3:15.0

Okay, and we'll do our best to avoid spoilers here, but Tina, what are your thoughts?

3:19.0

I didn't agree to this in advance. No, I'm just kidding. I liked it a lot. I think like I have the same sort of criticisms that I share, the same sort of criticisms a lot of other people do.

3:28.0

Obviously, it's really buggy for me on PC. It's been far less buggy, so a lot more manageable.

3:34.0

There is this weirdness with the main quest line kind of going against the side quest because your life is in danger. I don't think that's a spoiler to say.

3:45.0

But you know, you'll take a second to help a stranger at a bar. And it's that stuff like there's definitely like a congregate issue there.
