be great so let's get this party started swear daily greetings citizens of the internet for the last time in 2014 welcome to tomorrow daily the best ski talk show in the known universe I'm your host Ashley scouted join me as always on this final show of the year kill anonymous I'm excited they let us out once a year like yeah one day out of the student they let us out of the studio it's true so glad today and that's why we were able to go and get some clothes they said go get your fancy stuff and then they with an escort we had to go to our old homes and get our nice stuff and bring it back now or never everybody wanted to go yet oh if you didn't get to go back home yet where'd you find that price is right there's actually yeah this is actually true picture carry it belongs to Chris Hardwick we got it we stole it from the walking dead thanks Chris uh this is our last episode of the year like we mentioned we decided we would we would do a best stuff we'd tell you what our favorite stuff was we know yeah we helped we got help from you guys yeah listen to what your favorite stuff was and then this is all kind of ramping up to CES which we'll talk about in a little bit but I mean I guess they're kind of had their our own headlines but let's talk about our best stuff okay so our first category is best tech story of the year for me I mean it was an easy choice it's the rosetta landing this is oh yeah comet 67p islets we landed a probe of the feel a we landed the feet a probe on the surface of a moving comment we had a slingshot Rosetta around orbits like a bunch of times it took so many years to get this done and it was even though it wasn't 100% successful the way that the ESA had hoped I mean what a tremendous accomplishment yeah I am done and they did say that as it gets closer to the Sun it might actually get enough solar power to reactivate feely might reactivate and they might be able to get some more data which is pretty great so that was my that's a hundred percent like hands down easily my story of the year I got super excited when I saw all of the team celebrating when they say are they are they're super happy are all excited learning that actually happened there some pictures that's that's the feel Islander going down down from Rosetta they took that picture from the rosetta spacecraft I mean just what a moment what a great moment in science and it's just such an achievement it's that's easily my favorite what about you know that was up that's definitely up there up there for everyone that's a science geek and whatnot for me it was bionics people becoming slightly more robotic and it's just like the future of deus ex deus ex the game yeah revolution coming true people cutting off their arms on purpose first off good arms now you can run as fast as a notch ostrich what kind of this guy made bionic Bionic boots and so he can run 25 miles per hour really fast and and it's basically these uh these like like boot attachments that replicate an ostrich's Achilles legs yet yeah pretty tendance so that's awesome that was really good Lori I like them then it was the man with the Bionic arms this is recently too yes last week why so basically I we have Bionic arms that's the been done before but this guy has two and on top of that controls him with his brain yeah his brainwaves are controlled the two arms and simultaneous yes I'm okay free and so yeah there you go I just eats again huge tremendous accomplishments and achievements in science and technology just so cool like that's like I don't even know JD on that those are my favorite I mean the other one would be the the fact that we can live in the clouds on what was it Venus yeah the proposal to go to live in the live in the clouds we have some of their favorite hobbies yeah we do we do it all right I myself okay so now what we'll do well let you start this one off this is our best pop culture news oh yeah the my favorite pop culture news was Margot Robbie and Jack horn and I cornea whether you include Jack Courtney is basically they announced the cast of The Suicide Squad but my favorite was that Margot Robbie is perfect for the role of oh we sing this is a joint Jai Courtney wait let me let me explain about this b roll here this is a really awesome Suicide Squad fanch made trailer they didn't they did an amazing job on this but yeah Jai Courtney is finally getting his day in the Sun to be boomerang I think it was he's day in the Sun like all year I million everything and then uh Margot Robbie I can't wait I just can't wait for she's gonna be pretty great those what I like it's pretty good Jai Courtney fancy for me I like for me the number one thing it was a Star Wars trailer the team oh my mam that was a big geek pop culture to choose listen guys we're all gonna pretend like episodes one through three never happened maybe maybe the good parts of episodes two and three like that's fine but seeing this trailer made me feel like Star Wars as a franchise is truly in the right hands I really like that for example bb-8 the little robot that looks like it's riding on a soccer ball is a fully functional real life robot that's not cg oh that's awesome they're doing actual practical effects for a lot of things that they can do practical effects for and and miniatures just like the old trilogy original trilogy and Star Wars I know a lot of people are freaking out about this broad sword lightsaber but I'm really excited about it i think it's gonna be great people are going to be super pumped when the music kicks in and the Millennium Falcon starts flying across the screen like you just you get super jacked up on Star Wars you guys yes cutting to black sorry about that it was hard not to get excited after you've been hurt so many times as a Star Wars fan plus you bet you've had a pretty you think they've had a pretty good year for star wars with Disney it's a pretty good run I think a lot of people were really scared when they when they announced that Disney was buying Lucasfilm everyone's like up its over guys packing in like let's go no no this get it up did you did good with Marvel let's get that what argument was give them a chance because look at the great things they're doing with Marvel they're really letting them be kind of an autonomous studio and it seems like they're really kind of giving Star Wars the the the fun and also the gravitas that it deserves yeah and plus you like the the animated series that they have gone do I like Star Wars rebels is really good i'm looking forward to Gary Whitta is writing a spin-off Star Wars oh yeah that's right so is there's all kinds of great Star Wars except for me like it's a big star wars year for you but next year obviously to be even bigger they've got celebration they've got it i'm sure a whole bunch of stuff planned for the theme parks and then and then of course star wars in about a year well less than a year we're on the countdown the hype train is leaving the station we're all aboard yes I think we've all been aboard ever since that trailer dropped I think we all just just got right on the train and bought a one-way ticket to hype town um okay so favorite video game of the year we both thought about this a lot oh we had some runner I'm real disappointed in this also that this was really tough for us okay because there were girls education this one do you want I'll go okay all right Ashley's video game of the year it had to be mario kart 8 there was no other choice for me it was an easy pick uh-oh he's dead stairs on the loan well yeah so mario kart 8 in and of itself is a great game it fantastic there's me I'm right there this is my this is from your yeah these are my these are from my races there's Mike Mike and I have a long-standing Mario Kart rivalry that spans ages generations it's a generational it's it's it's a long-standing uses me where yeah yeah he races us as me good he's very good I I'm better but he's ver good why do you think this is game of the year person beyond the fact that you like it still has my attention after six months of being out I play it all the time a great great retention value love the DLC they really so many new tracks there is eight new tracks that's crazy that's awesome I really like what they're doing with the amoeba so where you're able to you know have costumes and stuff like that so I really feel like Nintendo finally like really did all the things I wanted out of a mario kart game and then of course I mean Luigi yes Sarah rolled in how did how did we get how are we so lucky to get a developer who made that face while making the game it was like people are gonna love this like that's that's so amazing it's furious nothing but never good Luigi's gonna fight you he's like it's not that you're a luigi anymore he's furious yeah he's gonna take everything burton luigi it's luigi forever so okay go ahead uh so I was on the fence about what I was gonna choose what was your what's your second place my second place was uh god I'd say shadows in Mordor I think that I think that was my second like like Assassin's Creed but like with a little bit of like oh you you get so angry at that game but like in a kind of a good way so but in the end I picked the game I like to pick a game that I think people if you bought it you feel like okay not only did I like the game but I got my money's worth okay and it's something I'll be able to share with others shareable it'll be it'll be something that I'm still playing once the years over or maybe I'll come back to well maybe i'll come back to retention got it so I picked super smash brothers wii u so we picked up we both picked a Nintendo one which I didn't I didn't like that it didn't like your friend i know that i dislike there was a lot of your fantasy games out this year and so I almost link to that cuz I like dragon age but anyway so for super smash brothers it was long awaited game you know it was it was a wii u seller it's sold we use yeah and they had they so as far as they added so many modes you can customize the main characters now they added more characters they promised their is going to be more they're gonna be unlikely if you have 3s in the wii u it plays yourself you can play as your me you can there's so much customization there's so many extra features it's got so much replay value there's so much to unlock you can have you can use the ax me bows and the one thing I love about it is it's easy to pick up and play if you're new my mate who's your main uh well I go back and forth retain chic I love bling is she okay like speed characters I really like playing a chic and then also uh this is gonna so Chris but i really like like is the neighbor from from Animal Crossing sorry I just wrote it because what you if you're the girl you should hit people the frying pan is funny and an umbrella I'm sorry you have an umbrella it's not frying pan that's game on yeah you have a even umbrella and it's really funny I don't like it made me laugh but chic mostly that's mostly my main all right who do you my OD blast I play as king dedede I plays King Dedede as my as my main is not an accept now man yes his mallet will will ruin cuz he's got a hit big hitbox you know we're getting to you got a bit big hitbox pls very powerful but anyway so that's your game yeah right the only reason why people like some people be like no this other game is because a lot of people don't have a wii u yet that's true i'm gonna kill it your hashtag of the day yes has nothing to do with best of it has to do with Nintendo cnet at CES there's no TV in front of it that's a really weird cnet at CES is the hashtag not everybody is gonna be using Oh every every everybody else see everybody talking about seeing out of CES mascot a half value ya seen it that's the official hashtag ok see you at it so what happens if they hash tag that if you hashtag that you have a chance to end up on the wall we have a tweet wall up on the live stage oh we have lots of stuff going on with our coverage where we obviously have the most comprehensive coverage of anybody out there so you definitely don't want to miss our coverage at CES cnet com yeah and we are going to be doing a live show Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday on the show floor from our stage our main stage in south hall at CEI yeah if you ever wanted to see those tomorrow daily bloopers tune in for the lives BAM there you go so yeah that's your hashtag is seen at at CES we want you guys to tell us what do you think the top three trends are gonna be at the 2015 International Consumer Electronics Show Nintendo no wrong I say personal service robots sleepy bow gebo amazon echo is kind of like a personal service robot like where we have these like virtual personal assistants now in like a little robot form that's I think that might be good obviously home automation is really big but VR be huge okay I think this is gonna be a big year for V art show or uh or the cookie if anybody watches black mirror yeah cookie when do I get migraine yeah yeah all that their get migraine you know the roses oh sorry inside black mirror job you guys should really watch black mare I took kills recommendation it's incredible so good so unnerving go okay go ahead but yeah so like we said we will be back on stage live at CES 2015 on january sixth one p.m. pacific time hope some of our usual cuz we have we have like quite a few usual people don't like want to show up i hope they show up yeah I don't play a lot they'll like no like inside stuff yeah it's good so we hope you show up we're going to take a quick break we're gonna get too into it your user feedback which is all of your best Stubbs a bunch of you guys wrote in it's so awesome i'm sorry we couldn't get to all of you and then of course our very last phone tog refer of the year oh no so I stick around we'll be right back welcome back to the show it's our best of 2014 episode we hope you're having a delightful holiday and a good new year yeah we like to every single week talk about the things we are into and so I figured let's let's get into it kill I really feel like we should dress up all the time no we look so snazzy yeah we look great this is resting put that on your resume so good okay all right uh what are you into ok so I'm a little bit behind on this but it's totally fine because it I'm into fargo the television miniseries okay uh it it's been over for a while and people have already kind of seen it but i binge-watched it sure nominated for like the most amount of golden globes of anything that's nominated right back so yeah I had to watch it it's great it's Bilbo you gotta love miniseries oh yeah and then Billy Bob Thornton plays like a like an assassin it's fantastic it's kind of like a one like a whole bunch of drama and murders and stuff like I'm not explain it if you've seen Fargo the movie you'll understand that it Fargo is such a town where everyone you know it's talking like this you know and just kind of like everyone's real nice also they know each other yeah it's small everyone's nice so when a murder happens it really shakes the town up oh you don't know Oh golly no so there you go yeah i really recommend checking it out let me know if you end up watching it because of my suggestion but yeah we are I haven't watched the last episode and watching it tonight so hopefully you guys have some time off for the holiday so you can just spin what bend watch it up if you can if you have access to it hopefully do what are you into okay so I'm not a hundred percent sure about this I just got into this last night I found it very interesting this is called plague not plague inc which we discussed it's it's not plague inc which is that really awesome game you try to wipe out humanity the virus no this is uh if i had fighted say it was something it would be tender meats reddit ok ok are you with me kind of ok so here's how this app work so basically this is very fascinating you get a piece of shared information so either you post or you see other people's post you have a kind of a timeline but it's one piece of information or a picture or quote or whatever it is at a time and with that information you either swipe up to share it and it shares it and or you swipe down to to kind of down vote it okay and so basically how this works is if you look at the screen here you can see it'll show like kind of not infections but it's like it's basically like here's the spread of the content that you shared here's here's where it's being it's going viral here's or it's getting exciting so there's not a whole lot of people using it right now but I really like this idea of sort of it's not self policing but it's very similar to read it which I really enjoy hanging out on which is you have up votes and down votes and you can you know basically the best stuff kind of rises up to the top so I like this idea that we can kind of not police what people are sharing and what gets really popular but it's like if somebody post something super dumb everyone's maybe like no downvoted buh-bye like adios but if it's really good people will share it a lot and you'll see this kind of explosion of you know it going viral and you can look at a map and see exactly where it's being shared and it's a really great time killer it's cool yeah it i mean like i said it's sort of like tinder it's like it's a good time waster like like you were saying but I just I find that really fascinating it's a really interesting way to do social yeah just swipe I'm super easy but that's a good find that was a good fun interesting it's a fun little thing yeah something interesting for you to check out if you hate it tell us about it I don't care it's fine speaking of you telling us about it start for use feedback all right I'm gonna find a Vista it's time for best but white why are you buying a Vista leave it alone yeah I want to prove to you let it be it's gonna be the first thing I'm not to PI poxa first what am I think you shares the Vista all right use your feedback we asked you guys use the hashtag TD best of 2014 to tell us your favorite stuff all year you guys really rose to the occasion ultra soup wrote and said my best of my TD best of 2014 stories blood sports sorry kale son of up see I knew but then he wrote to us two seconds after that and said actually my real TD best of 2014 story would be either the iphone 6 or mario kart 8 oh yes he's in my mario party there's yeah you're in my car exporter soup Mario Kart blood sport know uh and then Marty wrote to us and said here's my TD best of 2014 self drunk goggles self-driving cars oh look at that little thing that's the official one that's the one they're gonna be driving around I love it I'm so excited about self-driving cars dunno how that it's he is uh maybe yeah sometimes they'll have I know BMWs doing really cool thing where you can actually call up your car from like a parking garage and it'll come it like basically like drives it out for you valets it's a self like valeting car it's really weird so I think they might have that at the show but a lot of times it with cars they'll do it like off site or behind the convention center there's like space for I'm gonna trick one to drive me a Hawaii so perfect yeah great sure it'll do really fine in the water Chris wrote to us and said i just love how seamlessly you guys saw a slighted guess hoe's from one of you sick or on assignment

i didn't have enough time to like find the clip and then what you have to do download the entire thing and then you have to go through it again so i didn't have four hours to suppose that thang listen I may have started a terrible rumor during that live stream that Cisco had died because I rap yes because the hong son good yes because i didn't know and I I really genuinely thought I'd read a story somewhere that he had Pat he had like died in a car accident or something and so brian Tong and dong bell made fun of me the rest of the show and our AP Cisco started trending Twitter because I i accidentally made that horrible rumor up but he was fine and he actually released an album like a few weeks later so you're welcome Cisco cuz i getcha but really snail before he died so all I'm saying
