Today's gaming news stories include literally one of the most unhinged things I've ever heard a CEO say, and that is saying something. Netflix is shutting down another couple studios, and you smell that? It's Kingdom Hearts, baby. We'll have all this more because this is Kingdom Hearts.
I thought that was on purpose. Yeah, I thought that was on purpose too. And like you we could have like played it
off. We could have stopped laughing because like the audience didn't hear you say no. Like you heard you said no when the intro played. So you could have just played it off like, oh yeah, that's what you did on purpose.
This is one of those I fuck up all the time, and it's fine. This is one of the few times I'm embarrassed. I feel myself like turning more red than I just naturally. Is it because
you're a point of the screen and the confidence behind it? Kingdom Hearts on the freaking mind. I I mean I it's Friday. I I didn't bat an eye. I thought you were just like doing it. Yeah.
Yeah. I could have just continued Kingdom Hearts games daily. I could have just no,
I didn't though. I just I got stuck. It sounded good to me, but yeah, uh Chad, like Barrett was mentioning for reference. He said, This is Kingdom Hearts. The intro plays, and he goes, Nope. That was not what I meant to say.
Oh great job. What's up, everybody? I am welcome to Kind of Funny Games Daily for Friday, August 14th, 2026. This, of course, is Andy Cortez. Andy, how are you doing? I'm doing great, Tim. Good morning.
What's your weekend looking like? Um trying to play more of an embargoed video game. Love that for you. And a lot more Red Dead Dutch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where are you at in your Red Dead journey? Um It's a great question. You know, there's a there's a murder mystery in Red Dead that is just like a side thing. That you just happen upon. You like walk up and there's like a body flayed out, like hanging by its hands, like torso gone and it and it ridden in blood. It's like don't believe his lies or some shit like it's not that, but like there's like some shit and you're like, Oh, what's this? And you stumble upon other so like I have that going on. There's other side qu missions that I need to kind of get back to.
Um But then, you know, Dutch needs more money. Arthur, I need more money, Arthur. The camp, uh we could use f we could uh I would love to have a better suit than horse now. Arthur I just see the talking horse. Arthur So we're doing that, but I think I'm maybe s two thirds of the way through. Mm-hmm. You know, of the main story. And then there's a epilogue. That you know, you kinda forget about, but it's there. It's there. Yeah. And it's so violent. And
suddenly I'm John Marson and I'm with my I'm with my son Jack. I was a bad father. I'll tell you what, Tim, I was a bad f I didn't give a shit about this kid.
But luckily But luckily Arthur did. Ain't that right, John Marson? Ain't that right, Arthur? Yeah it is, Dutch. Man, I'm just killing it right now. Look at this guy. The nitro rifle. It's it's it's a great time. It's it's uh man. It's an experience. Yeah.
I love that you're doing this leading into GTA six. I feel like it's gonna give you a a very interesting perspective to be able to to speak to Rockstar's game design in a direct way. It's kinda like MCU and review.
Right. Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, you're playing the last thing that they put out that wasn't a Dr. Dre mission and GTA online or something like that. They did that. Yeah, they they sure did. They sure did. Um, but yeah, it's Would you believe
Dr. Dre is now just dating one of the reality TV people that we watch? And it's just like this shouldn't happen. He's showing up as like a cameo? Not yet. Season four of The Valley, he probably will. The value And that's concerning to everyone. That's a different spin off of Vanderpump rules.
So when you say, Andy, I don't know how you have so much time to game. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
