Rob on Yakuza: Who has the time?! Rob on every JRPG: YES YESSSSSSS

Dave is a changed man. No, I mean he's playing horror games and chasing platinums. Life is, indeed, strange.

14:13 "9/10?! How much have they paid him for that? " I love Rob so much.

Rosie didn’t get “the claaaaaaaw” reference. Bless her 😂

Sad to say, mine is Skyrim. Played the first hour of the remastered version on PS4 and couldn’t get into it. Did that about 5 times. Then, one drunken night, I just kept going, and going, and going. Now I’m second play through going for the plat. And before you ask…. yes, stealthy archer.

I fun idea for a Tuesday checklist could be everyone's first game and how they were introduced into gaming

Final Fantasy 7 remake: As someone who never thought I'd enjoy a fantasy style game, I decided to try it when it was free on PS Plus after I saw the stream Dave and Rosie did on it & I enjoyed it so much that it has become one of my favourite games ever. I have since then played the Original Final fantasy 7 and I loved every minute of it.

Dave has lost weight. Good job Dave.

"Who has the time?" People who don't have kids, Rob.

Days gone, first few hours felt on the verge of giving up and not bothering with it. Got to about 5 hours and felt hooked and had to platinum it, and clear those hordes and camp sites.

Dude yakuza is like the hidden gems of game series. People tend to compare it to gta but it's totally different.

For me it was Detroit: Become Human, i wasn’t interested at all, but gave it a try when it was free on PS Plus and loved it. Also played Heavy Rain which was incredible and currently playing Beyond: Two Souls

Yes please, I would very much like to see a Dave knife-only Resi stream.

Batman: Arkham Knight was my game I was wrong about. The first time I played it I got so far as the first 30 minutes with the Batmobile and decided it should have been named Batman: Arkham Batmobile and put it down. It wasn't until a full year later I randomly decided to give it another go, and ended up absolutely loving it.

Kingdom Hearts. First time I played it just because my sister had it and the cover looked interesting. Once I got to Destiny Island I thought it was just a kid's run around and collect things game and dropped it. Tried it again a couple years later, and now I have a keyblade hanging on the wall in front of me.

Why yakuza is good if you don’t know 1- one of best protagonists in gaming 2- amazing supporting cast 3- deep serious main quest 4- side quests are wacky and funny, so you can chill from the violence 5- amazing voice acting and music 6- mini games 7- fun combat 8- you really feel for the characters 9- travel virtual japan during a pandemic

Persona 5. Frankly, I was never into jrpg games, so I was kinda reluctant to playing Persona 5. Turns out it has become one of my top 5 games. I fell in love instantly after the first Palace visit. But it took some time to understand it.

Gran Turismo virtually kick started my interest in Engineering, and subsequent career.

Mad Max - a game that I skipped for many years until it was a ps plus game. Downloaded and tried it out one day - oh boy, how wrong I was. Amazing game! 😆

Lol, I just closed Yakuza 0, after playing all afternoon. It was actually Holly who made me interested in the game in the first place, when she talked about how terrifying Mr. Shakedown was :D

Good shout on Yakuza, Rosie! I started playing Yakuza 0 for the first time a month or so ago and am now addicted!!

YES!! Preach that Yakuza love Rosie, my favourite game series of all time (and I’m so glad theres still a team member that loves it like Hollie did) 😊

Dishonored 2's level design is just magnificent !

I agree with the yakuza games love them now

RE1, I thought the older gameplay would be too dated but I enjoyed every minute of it

Final Fantasy VII. Didnt understand the material system and struggled with getting past bosses in Midgar! After dropping it in favour of FF8 and eventually coming back to it, I got to grips with it and couldnt believe how wrong I was!

For me, it was Divinity Original Sin 2, At first I hated the combat and slow burning start (I'm more of a ARPG kinda Guy) but I revisited it with a friend who was well versed in those kind of games and he showed me the ropes. Now DOS2 is one of my favourite games of all time.

I bought GoW on PS4, played for 10 minutes, if so, and decided the other games were more of priority to play at the time. Came back to it 1 year later and realized what a gem I had all this time...

Nath and Dave need their own buddy cop tv show.😂😂

Dave is looking good on these most recent videos.

For me it was Persona 4 I kept reading people saying it was the best PS2 JRPG and me being the FF nerd was like "pfft Final Fantasy's the best"... i own all the Persona's now

Prey. I thought I wouldn't like it because of the original Prey 2 being canceled but it ended up in my top 10 this generation

It was because of Rosie specially her video about Y7 that I too fell in love with the Yakuza Series. Cheers!

Good luck with that Kiwami Platinum there, Rosie, prepare to become a master in MahJong.

Nioh is a game I was wrong about. I always thought it looked cool but I wasn't a fan of Soulsborn games. I even played it at a friend's house from the beginning and was unimpressed. But then it popped up on PS Plus so I gave it a second chance and once I got passed the first level it clicked for me. When it got into stances and ki with the combat I found a real satisfaction with Nioh.

Mad Max for me. Never cared about the Mad Max series so I thought I'd not get anything and be annoyed at the ridged gameplay and generic open world design. Yet the games progression, combat system, driving controls, stunning visuals and addictive gameplay loop and enjoyable trophy list had me fall in love with the game.

Final Fantasy 7 Didn't play the original (I was way too young to be playing games when it was released) so I didn't quite understand the hype around it in the months leading up to the Remake's release last year. Recently I purchased it for my PS5 on my sister's request and after she completed the game, I decided to try it myself. Surprisingly, I am enjoying it and can't wait for the next part!

I've just started playing the Yakuza games (well, I've finished 0 and Kiwami) and I must say it's probably one of the best series of games I've ever played. Looking forward to the rest of them

I'm with you Rosie, I was scrolling through Game Pass one day and seen Yakuza 0, I thought to my self "I'll give this a try, it looks cool for a bit". After I hit Chapter 3 and started playing as Majima, I knew I was going 100% the game. I then proceeded to complete almost every game. I grinded 0 through 6, and then Judgment back to back, one after the other, with no break. I'm now currently playing through Lost Judgment and Infinite Wealth after a year break so I don't get burnt out. Needless to say I love this series.

geez. hearing yakuza being descriped as "GTA japane" sounds like a freakin insult. From what a friend of me has shown me, is more like a playable japanese drama series.

Dave, brother. Whatever you're doing keep doing it, because you're radiant. Coolness level: off the chart.

Yakuza 0 is in my top ps4 games. It literally made me buy all of them. I am slowly going through them now. You gotta cherish these games and not rush through them. Crime drama at its finest

Just from his laughter, you can tell Nate knew he was gonna lose with either answer to Rob. He had no chance except, "I don't know..." Lol

Nath has such a calm, soft, relaxing voice.

Rosie is fricken cool as! THE CLAWWWW ... I'm playing judgement atm but definitely going to give Yakuza a go afterwards!

I'm in the same boat as Rob. I've been a loyal Playstation gamer for a long time and I never gave the Arkham games a chance. This past weekend I picked up Return to Arkham from the summer sale and I'm mind blown. I missed out badly on these games when they came out

NIOH 2, Played a demo and hated it; bounced off so hard, made no sense to me. Now however... I love it so much and I honestly think its better than SoulsBorne.

Mine was Red Dead Redemption, I hated it when it first came out as I was young and I couldn’t get past the cattle rustling missions. About a year later I played it again, I now have the platinum and it is how my favourite game ever

I thought Unravel was gonna be a fun little romp of a game. I was wrong. Not only was it terrifying at some parts, but the end had me crying during the credits thinking about my life. When it was all done, I was just flabbergasted wondering what happened.

I would say the same about yakuza. I would have never played it but a girl I had a crush on bought yakuza 6. So i figured i should check it out.

I'm watching this a few hours late. Did anyone tell Dave what the weather would be like today? That shirt buttoned up is making me boil!! 😂 😂 🇯🇲🇬🇧🙏🏽❤️

Yes please, knife only playthrough for Resi 1 with Dave petition right here!^^

I did the EXACT SAME THING NATH with the Witcher 3 now it's my favorite game of all time.

Control. Was so unsure about the game for the first half hour then left it for about 2 months. Came back eventually and everything clicked and I loved it. Got the platinum a couple weeks later.

Missed chance at 8:12: He should have been like: "hahahahaha...... no"

I'm with Rob...Arkham is my favourite too.

For me it was Persona 5. I don't watch anime, generally dislike turn-based combat, and I'm too old to be interested in the school setting, so I just naturally assumed I wouldn't enjoy it at all. When I finally gave it a go I loved it.

Nath’s reaction to Robs question was great. 🤣🤣

Gosh, mine was Days Gone, I got it as a last treat after I lost my job due to the pandemic so I was pretty much stuck with it, and I tried after Ghost Of Tsushima, so my expectations were on an all-time-high, and I hated it in every possible way, bike felt floaty, I didn't like either Deacon or Boozer, I hated the almost null fuel autonomy the bike had, just couldn't, so it fell into my backlog. My friends keep telling me to keep going, to keep going, and I was like "Nah, no way" until a friend who didn't like Horizon Zero Dawn but loooves Days Gone and I made a deal, she'd play HZD and I would give Days Gone another chance, so she started HZD and loved it, and so did I with DG, and MY GOD I LOVED IT SO MUCH, I got so invested, I cried, I laughed, I cared about the characters, Deek was way cooler than I thought, I just took out hordes for fun and I ended up getting the platinum in like 6 days, I love Days Gone so much and I owe Sony Bend Studio the biggest apology.

A game I was wrong about was Alien Isolation at first I was unsure about it because I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it but I decided to give it a chance and I'm really glad I did it's a classic survival horror game that made single handedly made the xenomorph terrifying again.

For me; Final Fantasy XII, and the Uncharted Series Final Fantasy XII I judged it too harshly and quickly on the battle system as I'd just come from FFX which is true turn base. I eventually went back to give it another try and realised the battle system isn't that different from the old FFVII and FFVIII. You and the enemy can't do an action until your bar is full. You can still access the command menu, and order your party to use certain things. Now that FFVII Remake is out, the fighting in FFXII seems like an early version of the system the Remake uses. Uncharted It come with my Playstation 4, never even heard of the game, knew nothing about it. The box art looked like just some shooter which I was not interested in at all. So I completely dismissed it. Think it was a year later I thought I would just try it because the collection was part of my PS4 bundle. Turned out to love the games. The characters were fun, the combat broken up with simple puzzles, the set pieces. Happy I gave the game a chance.

Yep...that last boss in RE...knife is the only way! (Maniacal laugh!)

Mine was oblivion. Never heard of fallout or Bethesda so when I picked up the box and looked at the back I thought I’d give it a try but wasn’t expecting much. Thank god I did give it a chance otherwise I’d never of played any of the other excellent Bethesda games.

Dave loves puzzles and will play Resident Evil? I want to see him do the whole mannequin puzzle in RE Village 😁

Resident evil 4.I literally just beat it an hour ago.Thought it was just another zombie game but it’s now in my top 5 of all time.

Yakuza games are unreal. There's no a single game out there that feels like it. Kiwami 2 was the game I was wrong about...I was also wrong about starting with Kiwami 2, too 😅

Can we get more of these thought provoking video game stories? I throughly enjoyed this bit here as it made people go back and really think.

For me it was lords of the fallen. At first I thought it was a demon's souls knockoff, but I ended up enjoying it.

Just got into the Yakuza games. Bought Zero while on sale, am loving it so went ahead and bought up to 6 while on sale and got Like a Dragon for my birthday.

I love that Dave's entry is RE2 Remake cause I literally just got back into this game a few weeks ago and had the same experience! I hadn't finished the first playthrough and was really not into it, but decided a year later that I at least wanted to finish it, and now within the last few weeks I've played through 5 times. I'm going for the plat!

Just look at Dave. The man is aging like a fine wine. He looks like the handsome older brother of his past 301/one-on-onesie self. Can we get more Dave please, the Uncharted playthroughs, the FPS with Nath, the FIFA/PES. Whatever happened to master league?

Mine was farcry 5 - I had it as an ‘inbetweener game’ for when I finished The Witcher and was waiting for the next title I had on preorder, so I picked it up thinking I’d just speed run it but ended up absolutely relishing every second of that game - and I’ve played it twice again since! Such a good game 👌

Final fantasy 14! I was under the impression that I was never going to be able to get into it, because I was already invested in that *one* MMO already. However, I started playing back in May and I’m in LOVE with the game. The combat is very satisfying, the lore is amazingly written, and the dev team is absolutely amazing! I wish I started sooner, because it is brilliant!

Thronebreaker for me. I'm not usually into card games, but man I love Thronebreaker.

Yakuza 5 is also the biggest of the Kiryu games. Each character has so much to do, I ended up putting over 90 hours in, when the others had been 20-40.

I tried Witcher 3, hated it. I tried it again a year later and was completely hooked

I played god of war when it was on ps now and after cutting down the tree and slowly sailing in the boat I got bored and deleted the game until I bought it about a year later and platinumed it

This was a great one. Love starting my day with EGM style video game journalism. And, I was right there with Rob: a Batman game can’t be good, are you kidding? Cut to my 20th hour of playing the demo.

Dave taking on a resi game on a knife only run?? oh hell yeah I'm HERE for it.

I started the Yakuza series with 4 but eventually dropped it when I bought a PS4. When Yakuza 6 came out, I thought I should give the series another chance. Best decision ever! Finished 6, Zero, Kiwami1/2, Like a Dragon and now playing 3 remastered. I think I'm on chapter 10. After that, I need to finish Y4 and Y5 and off to Judgement.

I read Rosie Caddick I immediately thought of Caddicarus Hilariously, they're family and she even starred in his older videos.

I don’t know how but as soon as Rosie came on I knew she was going to bring up Yakuza. ❤️❤️❤️ my favorite series at the moment!!!

I was wrong about Borderlands. I was not expecting much when I traded a game for it. I figured I would get bored with a few minutes and now the Borderlands series us my favorite game series.

Mine is not so much a mistake as a video games hiatus. My brother let me play LA Noire on his pc not that long after it was initially released, and I thought it seemed pretty good but had taken a break from playing video games for several years. Got the remastered version for the PS4 and thoroughly enjoyed it, one of the first games if not thee first game I think I platinumed.

Fallout. My little brother went on and on about it. At the time my only experience was skyrim, then I gave in tried fallout 3 it was great I immersed myself in the fallout world

Mines was Skyrim, hated it to start then played it & was blown away

I almost bought Clayfighter 63 1/3 over Final Fantasy VII because I thought Clayfighter was going to be amazing and I didn't like "top-down" camera games. Fortunately Clayfighter wasn't available, and I walked away with my favorite game of all time. It's still embarrassing to think about what could have been.

It makes you feel like Batman!! 🤣🦇🤣🦇

David! What a great haircut man. Looking good bud. I was wrong about Resident Evil. Initially I was so put off by the controls that I couldn't stand it. Eventually I gave in and now it's a classic I'd gladly jump on and play anytime.

A game I was happy to be wrong about is the original Devil May Cry. And look at me now, madly in love with all of it. Even discount Dante, it was so creatively done and a really fun gameplay experience

I felt the same about Batman, that was such a great surprise! For me, it was Kingdom Hearts, I picked up the 1.5 and 2.5 collection. I'd never played a JRPG before really struggled to get into it. Left it for 6-7 months came back to it, gave it a proper go and really got into it. Finished all the other games plus 2.8 and finished in time for KH3. Really pleased to be wrong with that series! Just because it's been a while... what was Ash's despicable act?! We need to know!

daves knife only resi walkthrough? YES ABSOLUTELY A THOUSAND TIMES YES!! lmao

COD Infinite Warfare. Yeah, it wasn't the COD we wanted back in 2016 but it was actually good. The maps took some time to get used to but after a while I kinda wish they did more with the science fiction element.

When Nathan just completely destroys you for the way you 'currently' eat a bounty.....

Horizon Zero Dawn. I didnt really learn how to fight the robots and thought of it as a mediocre RPG. Gave it another go and now it's my favourite game of the PS4 generation

DO IT! Dave mode, Resi-knife-only play-thru. 😁

Play Evil Within 1 with Dave in a Livestream!

tbh what Nath had to say about Dishonored really is Dishonored at it's best. i'm super glad it clicked for him like that!

I am a strong HODL for the Dave brand. Not selling a single one. Dave to the moon

Mine would be the Metro series. For the reason just like Dave with RE2R.
