Cyberpunk

How are you doing today, Matt?

Cyberpunk and Fallout, new stuff, new content for both.

Story content, new.

They didn't, but is.

So tired.

Yeah, I was going to say, like, we're going to talk about that at some point.

But, like, Cyberpunk for a game being in, like, for lack of a better term, maintenance mode while the next games are being worked on.

man, do they sure love pushing new content and not just like inconsequential stuff, substantial things.

Is Johnny Silverhand a spirit or an

embryo? Thank you, Cyberpunk 2077.

Yeah, that's a really interesting question.

Which I got to

Yep.

That one is crazy too.

Anyway, but what – Cyberpunk asks that question of humanity is like, you know, is it copy consciousness the same as that person? And it gives you lots of different – viewpoints on that subject so if you're hearing us talk about cyberpunk 2077 and you're like why are they going on about this it's because that core question and if that question interests you definitely go play the games it's a very good game

honestly if you like sci-fi in any way shape or form play cyberpunk if you don't like sci-fi play cyberpunk if you like cyberpunk play cyberpunk you don't like cyberpunk play cyberpunk

Welcome to Cyberpunk Cinema, the definitive dive into the dark future of science fiction.

I am your host, Anthony LaPura, and I'll be taking you on a cinematic journey through the sprawling cityscapes, the crippling data storms, and the cybernetic implants that encompass all things Cyberpunk.

In this week's episode, I'll be breaking down the 1994 B-action cyber trash horror curiosity, Death Machine, written and directed by Stephen Norrington, starring Brad Dourif, E. Lee Puget, William Hootkins, John Sharian, Martin McDougall, and Richard Brake.

After a mad genius inventor of killer robots and cyborgs at Shank Armin and his core kills execs, he unleashes his ultimate death machine on the new, cute CEO firing him.

It's time to access your cranial jacks, boot up your Ono Sendai Cyberspace 7, and slap on your damn mirror shades.

You know what time it is.

Cyberpunk Cinema starts now.

Hello, this is Kishin.

It was interesting because it taught me a couple of things about like, it made me think of Tron a little bit.

Because the concept that made me want to tie this into Cyberpunk was the idea of time dilation.

there's right.

So when, when Flynn gets pulled into the computer, that whole fucking thing, that whole movie takes place in like three seconds, you know, it's because like at scale things move faster, et cetera, et cetera.

Kind of gonk they're blaming the Merc and not the sloppy fixer for the deets getting leaked.

This literally does sound like a plot line that you just encountered in Cyberpunk.

Yeah, although the thing is Cyberpunk at least has the foresight to have names that are better than iRhythm.

iRhythm is bad.

Hey, I'm like, if you're listening, iRhythm, I'm not sorry.

as much as i held out hope uh you know there's a reason why you didn't hear us the two biggest mass effect fans that you know constantly talking about mass effect 5

right and and again like that that concept trailer that they put out um in the wake of this closure um i mean yeah cool concept look really cool um look like an interesting direction to take that to take the franchise um i think if we go into the post office um uh was there a question about this about that maybe not i thought there i thought there was um or no johnny johnny asked me offline um whether like if you and I took that extra hard because obviously like it's oh it's our favorite it's our favorite game series matched up with our favorite like action genre where it looked like it was like a spy game I'm like yeah man that would have been that would have been really interesting to see how that played out um would have been interesting to see if like Liara was still the shadow broker if that you know played into the gameplay in any way shape or form with how you identified uh like targets and stuff like that and and kind of went along would have been interesting to see how free form it was um According to them, they were going to be taking a lot of inspiration from a lot of today's top games like Baldur's Gate 3 and like Cyberpunk and kind of like some of the ways that it would allow you to express yourself in the gameplay and things of that nature.

So yeah, on paper, it sounded like a really neat pitch.

It's just a shame that EA is not a publisher that cares about stuff like that anymore.

The buildings were like, all you could see.

Kind of like in Cyberpunk, you just look up and you're like, fuck dude, there's no sky.

I did notice a lot of really low upward facing shots, especially in like the alleyways in the back.

And when he was at the I remember some good downward shots when his face started melting at the red carpet event.

I'm finding it kind of...

How did you find this? It was in a bundle that I picked up, and I was just like, ah, this looks kind of like a Cyberpunk setting.

Was this like a Humble Bundle? A Humble Bumble.

It was in a Humble Bumble? It was in a Humble Bumble.
