Today's gaming news stories include Gta 6 leakers release more footage, expensive prices for more hardware from Xbox and Nintendo, and is Persona 6 actually coming next year? Well, we'll listen more because this is Kinda Funny Games Daily.
Yo, what's up? Welcome to Kinda Funny Games Daily for Tuesday, August 25th, 2026 I'm one of your hosts, Blessing Adeoye Jr. Joining me is Video Game Chronicles, Jordan Middler.
**Jordan Middler** (0:30)
Hello, mate. How you doing?
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (0:31)
Doing well. Welcome back to the show, mate.
**Jordan Middler** (0:32)
Thank you. Yesterday was a Middler Monday. Today is a Middler Tuesday.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (0:36)
It was supposed to be a Tim Tuesday. Tim couldn't make it today because he's busy with paperwork.
**Jordan Middler** (0:41)
Paperwork, that's what they call it these days. Yeah, I'm about to be in the minds of covering Opening Night Live, but that's like 90 minutes from now, so we've got time for a little bit.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (0:51)
What are you doing for opening? Are you here?
**Jordan Middler** (0:53)
I'm here on property, but I will be writing the news for VGC, so I'll be sequestered away while you guys go, Oh my God, it's a new trailer!
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (1:01)
Just do it from here. Writing's not that hard.
**Jordan Middler** (1:04)
Famously.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (1:05)
It only took you like three weeks to write a Xenoblade article.
Jordan, how's your... Pokemon World hasn't started yet, but you were pre-worlding?
**Jordan Middler** (1:14)
I was pre-worlding.
I realized that if I was to fly when they decided we were going to fly to Worlds, I would be flying it in the middle of Opening Night Live and Gamescom stuff, which wouldn't have been great for the old VGC. So I flew out on Sunday and I've just been chilling. I did the shows yesterday and we did Gamescast, which was a lot of fun. Really fun. Then I went back to my hotel and I had another pizza from the same place, New York Pizza across from my hotel.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (1:41)
You had pizza in San Francisco?
**Jordan Middler** (1:44)
It was great. 4.6.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (1:45)
My SFO?
**Jordan Middler** (1:46)
Yeah.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (1:46)
Oh my...
**Jordan Middler** (1:48)
Look, it did smell of petrol, but it was fantastic. Ate that, immediately fell asleep, then woke up midnight. San Francisco time to do an interview, and then I've just worked a day of news.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (1:57)
My God.
**Jordan Middler** (1:58)
That's why I have 10 hours of energy. I'd like to apologize for having a disgusting brand on this broadcast yesterday. The fine folks at Five Hour Energy have shouted me down, so now it's time to rock.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (2:15)
I'll be honest.
**Greg Miller** (2:16)
They would really encourage you to only take one of those to make it truly a five-hour energy.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (2:20)
Yeah, you definitely don't want it. Because I... Oh, we were presented by Five Hour Energy today. Are we always presented by Five... If I block that out, is that always there? Are they presented by Five Hour Energy?
It's never left. Is that a this week thing? No, that's a this week thing. Okay, I was going to say, I was like, is that just by coincidence? Because I was going to say, I mean, this isn't even... I'm not planning. I didn't plan to say this, but I do microdose Five Hour Energy.
**Jordan Middler** (2:43)
What is this microdose pattern about? It's really just down the neck.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (2:46)
Because every now and then, I wake up in the morning to go to the gym. Well, I wake up every morning to go to the gym, but every now and then, I'm just very tired. But it's like, I don't want to down a Five Hour Energy first thing in the morning.
**Jordan Middler** (2:57)
Come on.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (2:58)
No.
And so I just drink, I drink an hour at a time. Maybe I'll drink two hours. And then a few days later, I'll drink an hour.
**Jordan Middler** (3:06)
In my current life, I wake up, take the dog out, and then I have a nice cold can of an unnamed energy drink. That could be five hour energy if they'd like to reach out to VGC. Kinda Funny has earned enough money for your kindness, but VGC Video Games Chronicle, you have a little orange one somewhere.
We could do something there.
**Blessing Adeoye Jr.** (3:27)
Let me tell you, you go to videogameschronicle.com, they're willing to give you ad space.
