Yeah, what's up? Welcome to kind of funny games daily for Monday July 13th, 2020. I'm one of your hosts blessing at a junior and joining me is Tim.

0:16.7

Ma, fucking get ease. What's up, Les? How you doing? I'm doing good, man. How are you doing? I'm doing real good. I'm doing real good. Today is Monday, obviously.

0:26.6

And I woke up and it's not one of my favorite tweets I've seen a long time from Elliott Morgan, formerly of SourceFed. He tweeted out, he was just like, we used to call these things Monday.

0:36.2

And it's just like, damn, if that hit the truth, is there any difference between these days at this point, especially we just did Ubisoft forward yesterday on Sunday.

0:44.9

And also we recorded some other things. So it was like a full work day yesterday. Oh, yeah. It's like, is this a Monday? Is this a Tuesday? I don't even know. But there's a lot of.

0:53.2

This but I consider this I consider this Tuesday. In fact, last late last week, oh no, early last week is it would have been an immoran episode. We talked about like just starting the year over again and just starting to introduce episodes as this is January 1st, 2021.

1:06.4

You know,

1:06.8

I'm not a bit of a jet. But anyone can anyone notice what anyone care. I don't think so. Tim, right before we started this episode, you brought up some, some things that are around some rumors. I'm curious because like, I guess there's some PlayStation 5 rumors that are that's going on.

1:20.8

There's some circulate and rumors. There's some things going on. You want to we want to head over to Jeffy grub grub. See what he has going on. Let's see what Jeffy grub has going on.

1:32.4

Grub Snacks still he hasn't stopped that.

1:37.8

He's been tweeting a lot here. Okay, here we go. So this is on his updated summer game. Messing.

1:43.1

He says the PS5 release date slash price today seems weird, but Geronimo underscore 73 has been spot on for a lot of things.

1:52.0

That's this also kind of leads credence to the July 20th and Nintendo Direct that also would be weird because it's a Monday.

1:59.5

So here's the thing interesting. Like, I've seen a lot of rumors going around a lot of people in the industry talking about the fact that PlayStation might be announcing price and pre-orders opening up today.

2:11.7

But totally unsubstantiated and I get the gut feeling that these are just the type of rumors that someone heard somewhere and that that is just being circulated. We don't have multiple sources going on. It's just kind of like a hype and understanding because it would be pretty damn

2:27.8

balsy of Sony to just not even give Xbox time to like think about it. Yeah, oh, pre-orders. I'm now go, you know, on this random Tuesday that we have going on right now.

2:39.9

But I don't think it's going to happen because I have it on fairly good authority. I've talked to some of my friends and connects in some of the different

2:48.2

retailer sex of the world. And as far as they know, and they would be in the know, they are not prepped to put up pre-orders and stuff today. So that doesn't mean that it's not going to happen.

3:00.5

But that to me that kind of tells me it's not going to happen.

3:04.2

See, I feel like if we were to happen, this would be this would be the way to do it. Right. Like I think this kind of falls in line with Sony's MO in terms of just announcing random things on the PlayStation blog.

3:14.8

Like they did it with the controller. They've done it with with random stuff. I feel like for release day in price.

3:21.1

I don't think it's beyond the Roman possibility that we just get it on a random day. Like, especially if it's bad news, especially if it's like, yeah, the PlayStation 5 is going to be $600.
