**Andy Cortez** (2:50)
They seem really good.

**Tim Gettys** (2:52)
Last I saw was at 87, which gets me 17 points.

**Andy Cortez** (2:55)
You can go. If you're over 85, sit pretty, you're sitting real pretty for any game.

**Tim Gettys** (3:02)
And I snuck in there. I forgot I bought it for like what, 35 cents or something like that. Like it was like nothing. It was nothing.

Probably like $90 or something.

No, I have like 70 or 60, something like that.

**Barrett** (3:27)
So more than, I think most than us.

**Andy Cortez** (3:29)
I gotta make moves because.

**Barrett** (3:31)
You gotta drop Mariachi.

**Andy Cortez** (3:32)
I already did.

**Tim Gettys** (3:33)
Okay.

Good.

**Andy Cortez** (3:40)
And you know. I got a couple of heaters. Aside from that, I'm fucked because Witchbrook is not coming out. I just gotta I just gotta accept that.
Eternal life of Walter Schmidty not coming out either.

**Tim Gettys** (3:52)
So weird.

**Andy Cortez** (3:53)
Like it's just a disaster right now.

**Tim Gettys** (3:55)
Like why did they say it at that Nintendo Direct? That wasn't that long ago.

**Andy Cortez** (4:00)
Was Gta already known?

**Tim Gettys** (4:02)
Yeah, we've known about GTA since the beginning of the year.

**Andy Cortez** (4:05)
You could create your own Oppenheimer. Barbenheimer is a thing that you could write GTA and Walter Schmidty, like the month of GTA and fucking Walter Goldberg or whatever.
