What's happening friends? Welcome to podcast unlocked it is the world's fanciest Xbox podcast. I'm Ryan McCaffrey to my right

Destin Ligary and rounding it out a lot of people. Marty sleeve up coming up on this week show we are going to talk a little about our

impressions of watch dogs to uh dishonored to both out this week and then we're going to talk about the Xbox's 15th anniversary the original Xbox is 15 years old this week.

And finally the NPD numbers are in and it's good news for the Xbox for the fourth month in a row. So guys I have four cameras on me now it's really weird.

Really awkward not gonna lie. Everybody should check out the video version. I went to Australia for two weeks and came back and everything came back fancy.

Ex- yeah. We were like well. Wait we're not going to get it that I forgot what I could do anyway. Let's start with the hot releases of the last

four or five days or so. Yeah. Marty you've been playing a bunch of watch dogs to start there. Yeah. What do you think? Cause I haven't I haven't a chance to sit down with it yet but at E3 I thought man I really like this a lot better than watch dogs when it felt more grand theft auto-ish but in a and I mean that in a nice way.

Yeah. It just kind of felt better to play and I'm looking forward to diving into it. Yeah. So I'm gonna like couch us with a caveat that it I am very biased for the fact that San Francisco is my favorite city in America.

And the fact that this game does such a killer job of representing the city not only as a physical location but in tone like I'm just enamored with that but honestly this is the most fun I've had it with an open world game in years.

I think it doesn't take itself too seriously and there's some things that I can't figure out if it's a parody intentionally or not.

The hack is kind of a bunch of douchebags. Yeah. A little bit but I mean Marcus like in the first maybe 20 minutes gets super drunk and then wakes up in its boxes and it's don't really work.

Marcus Phoenix for a second. Marcus Phoenix said a one night stand with a girl in the red and it has to get back.

He's very confused. That's a gyrous of more judgment spoiler. Yeah but just Ryan like he said like it is looser and faster and more fun focused in terms of gameplay and in terms of just the story and the structure.

Also I really like the writing. So it was one mission that I've only played the first two and a half hours I think but there's one mission super early on where

it's basically a guy who's a complete parody of OG look from GTA San Andreas like almost completely and you go to him and you have to like get

part of his music down there to steal it and then you basically fake selling it to someone else. What's it OG look? A parody? Yes.

Yes. A parody of a parody. A parody. Okay. Met a parody.

But you basically end up going to this guy's house and you call him and you're like looking through his security camera and you pretend to be the rapper. I don't know what the rap is.

But it's off a soundboard. So you're talking to this guy with the soundboard. You make the transfer you money to get the rest of the track that you've managed to download and just slowly watch him lose his mind as you're repeating the same lines over and over again because it's on a soundboard.

It's really well done. Yeah each of those sort of core like pillar missions which are composed of a series of smaller missions that end up with you.

Gaining a ton of followers has a really interesting and sort of smart modern message like there's one about you infiltrating what is very much a faux church of Scientology which is very much has a figure head of Tom Cruise as dude.

There's another one. There's a lot of parodies. The guy I was talking about is a guy who said he would he's a parody of an actual guy on Twitter.
