Wow, the stream actually died. That's how low the frame rate got. Good, I hope they didn't see that. What are you looking for, champion? Do you hear that? What? It's like a wet noise over here. Like it. That's me making robot wet fart noises. Player one.

Alright, so, um, Nick's gonna play the keytar. Alright, can I... This is, uh, for those of you who don't know why people didn't like the Black Album, this is actually the keytar that Kirk Hammett used when, uh, when recording the Black Album.

Specifically, the one about sleeping and the one about Saba Trolls. Sleeping. You hippie. This I wish for death.

You don't need more. I could use the multiball, though. Watch this shit. Watch it. Slip. Ooh, yellow backspin. One hit to the grave marker and I'm good. Yeah, I'll give you that. I'll give you that. That was nice. Multi ball! Yeah!

Alright, so we need picks, folks. No we don't. We're good. Nailed it! Oh, big money now! Oh, stay cool. Look at that noise. Oh, and you got crank it up. Let's go. Dude, one shot. One shot.

Dude, it's an impossible shot, man. There we go. Oh, nice look, man. Okay, folks, it looks like I basically have to get Crackin' Up lit, at least, to beat him.

I need a multiple ball. Damn right. Oh, shit. Oh, that looks so good. I wish I got that. No, train it, train it. No!

Ride the lightning. Wasn't that Jim Carrey? Ride the snake. Oh, yeah, ride the snake. All right, here we go.

Hold my breath there a lot with breath Please God wake me So Nick got a Super J ready Oh, you shit! And misses his chance at an add-a-ball. Oh, you shithead! But he doesn't break, which is important. Oh my God, it was ready, and I got the Super Owl in. All right. That was a nice up and over. I mean up and down. No! All right, good fight, really. Good battle, all the way to the end. Last game. Is that your beer? Yeah. Never saw a snake puke before. All right, one-handed game? We'll do one-handed. One each? One each. And then we'll be done. Okay. Since you're the winner, you go first. All right. We're going to play a quick one-handed game, folks. Jack, you win. Thanks, brother. Hey, you too, man. That fight couldn't have been any closer.

There's like some deep shithead. Yeah, some deep. Player one. Shut up, James. Is it James? I think it's Kurt. Can I call you Kurt Hetzfield?

Hermsfold? Oh, one-handed. Kurt Hammer. Okay. No, do it the other way. Super skill trap. Nailed it. All right, don't try that.

Oh, the other way. I see. I thought about that wrong. You fart. One hand, baby. Come on. Wait, did I end up getting it? Because I have 500 options.

And Nick is fencing a lot harder than I am. Brad 200! That's Smith. Is that Brad Smith? Hi, Brad! What was that?

We're not playing well, we're playing one-handed. Maybe if the delay is long enough, it's my awful, awful ball. There we go.

Oh, hit something. Oh, that's a win. You know what? Can you take that upper camera and move it out so people can see one-handed?

Probably. See what that looks like. It might be kind of cool to see. Let's see, if I go to game screen. That's why you zoomed in it earlier. Yeah, so here's what I'm gonna do. Here's what I'm gonna do. You ready for this? Yup. You ready for me to fucking make this look incredible? Yeah, dude, make it look great. I'm gonna shrink this down. Ready? You ready? Yeah. Oh, there you go. I think that's all you need. Hold on, get one handed on this shit. Yeah, you can see both, right? Yeah. Alright, here we go, one more. Here, I'll zoom way the hell out.

Alright folks, all I need is a multiball. Good start. Chris over, multiball. That's what I needed. I don't even know if I'm going to go for picks. I guess I should.

With one hand, it's a little tough. There's one. Oh, I got them all, except for one, that one. Oh, I did it. Wow. I impressed myself.

Did it. Oh my god, it's all gone. That was worth it. I think that was worth going for the... I'm back, baby! Good luck, bro.

Can you stop effing me right now, please? All you need is a multiple ball. Too clean. The one headed does say, alright I lost. Alright, goodnight y'all. All right, so here's what I'm going to do.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for coming out for day one of Metallica. I hope you learned something. If not, you can go to papa.org and watch Bone Cairns blow this game up.

And he does a crazy... Hold on. I'll straighten it out. There you go. He does an incredible job at showing you exactly how to get the highest score you could possibly get. Although that's old code. That is old code. You're right.

So we showed you the new code, or the most recent code, I guess. Wait, did he play it with Cranky? I really have no idea.

I really have no idea. Anyway, we're going to be playing this all week, so come by all week. Watch us drink and beat each other up. It's going to be great. It's going to be awesome. I'm having fun. I hope you're having fun. I am having fun. Thank you. Are you? No, thank you. Hey, good one-handed win? Good actual win? Two-handed win?
