Many moons ago over on the Discord server we set patrons the task of writing a whole Flash In The Pan Hip Hop Conflict Of Nowadays from scratch.

Pete & Lloyd recently recorded a demo of the battle, but they want some feedback from you all as they feel it might need tweaking up a little. You can either leave your thoughts in the comments below... 

OR... at 3PM PDT - TODAY (Thursday 12th March) we are holding a writers chat over on the Discord server - in the 'concepts-and-spoilers' room where we can discuss it with you too.

Remember: USA recently changed to daylight savings time. So, if you live outside the USA make sure you verify exactly what time 3pm PDT translates to in your country - we don't want you turning up late! 

If you can't be there live we will pin the start of the discussion so that you can read through at a later time. Anyway without further ado - check out the video above and let us know what you like or loathe about it.

Maybe replace the Banjo line with Conker, since this is a show for older people and Conker was an M-Rated game so the people who watch this show might get it

A Conker reference I kean

I like the second version better than the first.

I feel like the raps here focus too much on details. There are some really good lines in here, but they bring to much attention to minor aspects of the consoles rather than dissing them as a whole, know what I mean? I also prefer take 1 over take 2 - sounds more serious and fits these consoles as characters more.

I like the first take for the most part, but peter's delivery on the final line is better in take two.

Eric Forsman

2nd version was better, I loved The Banjo-Kazooie line (mainly cause i'm a huge fan of the games), it was def a fun take and looking forward to whatever goes down in the future

JakeMSV

1st take was better, punchlines felt a tiny bit less rushed imo

Paul Saxberg

I don't think ERB is aiming to exclusively target older audiences.

Carey Schave

Xbox I see as a more goofy character while Playstation is more serious.

conker was at the same time banjo was. I doubt it has a larger adult audience just because of it's rating

There’s a missed opportunity here: Not a single Final Fantasy reference! I feel like there are LOTS of jokes to be had around Final Fantasy. Kinda like the Banjo Kazooie idea, PlayStation made a huge BALLER move back in the day, and snagged Final Fantasy 7 right out from under Nintendo’s nose when it turned out their N64 hardware wasn’t gonna cut it. How about self-hype line from PlayStation, about how they could keep rapping forever, like Final Fantasy. (Which is an epically long ongoing franchise, currently at 15 main entries, and like a hundred sequels/spinoffs/remakes) At the very least, maybe Xbox can roast them about all the remakes? 🤷🏻‍♂️

We need more Nintendo in this :D

Microsoft should mention that the reason Sony got into the console scene was because Sony was screwed over by Nintendo.

As an avid video gamer I didn't really catch many of the references. Either too obscure and specific or just not worded clearly enough to catch without listening closely. To be perfectly honest it wasn't until the second take that I could tell who was Xbox and who was playstation :S. Just some thoughts though... A few things I'm sure you guys thought of and decided not to use for whatever reason... but I'll mention anyways. Xbox - Red Ring of Death. The fact that the only reason people bought an Xbox over a Playstation in the early days was to play Halo. The Xbox controllers are so well shaped that the US military used them as a template some hardware controllers, XBONE has pun/sexual innuendo potential Playstation - PS2 is the top selling console of all time, by a big margin. Love the idea though.

…I wish this had been released as is
