Group Description
**Hideo Kojima ** is one of the most well-known auteurs in the gaming industry. For several decades, the video game designer worked for the powerhouse video game studio Konami, helping to develop multiple titles along with his flagship Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid franchise . However, after a while there was a falling out between the two and, eventually, Kojima parted ways with Konami. In more recent years, Kojima has begun his own company, Kojima Productions, and now fans are speculating what game the studio will be working on n Additionally, Death Stranding’s Digital Deluxe Edition is also on sale and is currently priced at $39.99 from $79.99. This special edition of the game includes tons of bonuses such as the Gold “Ludens Mask” Sunglasses, a Gold Power Skeleton, a Gold All-Terrain Skeleton, and a Gold Armor Plate (Level 2), and The Death Stranding: Timefall digital music album/behind-the-scenes digital vi In the lead up to Hideo Kojima’s latest game, the game director had often mentioned what he believed was the start of a new subgenre. Affectionately dubbed a “strand” game, much of Death Stranding ‘s marketing was bolstered by what Kojima believed was an innovative new concept for games. Obviously, stating that a game is starting a new genre before it’s even released is short-sighted, something Kojima addressed by immediately doubling down. Kojima had essentially stated that the full potential of an “action strand game” genre would not be met without a few sequels to present the scope of his new subgenre of video ga Now, after months of endless speculation, Bandai Namco finally confirmed the contents of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot’s upcoming DLC, which will cover some interesting content from Dragon Ball Super . The upcoming DLC will introduce Super Saiyan God Goku into the game, and the DLC can be played whether the player has completed the main campaign or This year, six games are competing to be crowned Game of the Year, with Control , Death Stranding , Resident Evil 2 , Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice , Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , and The Outer Worlds all up for the big prize. It’s hard to say which game will walk away with the distinction of being named Game of the Year, but it should be noted that Death Stranding is nominated for the most awar I’ve obviously never played the PS4 version of Death Stranding , and I’m sure that I’m far from completing its 40-hour campaign, but nothing I’ve experienced so far stops me from claiming that PC is now the definitive place to play Death Stranding . The game is visually stunning, controls well, and runs immaculately; so far I’d say it was well worth the seven month wait. However, I still have a few hundred more orders to complete; one of which is my review of Death Stranding’s PC version which I’ll be carefully delivering to DualShockers readers later this mo Arguably the closest thing the video game industry has to the Oscars or the Emmys is The Game Awards . Each year, a group of industry insiders and journalists come together to vote on which games should win in a variety of categories. The winners are announced in December at The Game Awards , which has been hosted by video game journalist Geoff Keighley since its inception in 2 That manifests in-game as the many community-fed systems of infrastructure around death stranding 2 characters|https://deathstranding2world.com/ Stranding ‘s world . Players can contribute supplies to survival caches, containers, roads, paths, and other important exploration tools for getting through the game’s abstract, apocalyptic interpretation of the United States. Because the main premise of the game is re-connecting the isolated United States together after supernatural disaster, many of the gameplay concepts reflect that idea. Players are both encouraged and rewarded for placing objects in the world that aren’t necessarily imperative for themselves, but could save lives for others, at least conceptually speak The PlayStation Store’s Spring sale is live right now and offers massive discounts on over 600 PS4 games. The best part about the Spring sale is that it offers great deals of up to 50% off on some of the biggest PS4 games right now. All discounts will be available until April 28th, giving players tons of time to pick up a game or two, but it is also worth noting that Sony will be refreshing its lineup of games on sale on April 1 It’s an interesting conceptual design that does genuinely make Death Stranding different from many singleplayer and survival-style games. However, Kojima’s comments on the “strand game” genre mentioned sequels , some that may not necessarily be exactly like Death Stranding . In an interview with GameSpot, after being asked about the future of Death Stranding , he stated a new genre of games isn’t defined by just one gameplay experie Kojima then went on to mention that media reception for Death Stranding would presumably be mixed, with “pros and cons” of Death Stranding ‘s approach to the “strand game” genre. Much of that was actually reflected in the Death Stranding ‘s reviews, which were notoriously mixed from media outlets around the world. Regardless of how the “strand game” genre was realized in Death Stranding , Kojima ultimately believes in his vision of a “strand game” genre. A potential Death Stranding sequel could solidify that genre, assuming the developer has not been discouraged by Death Stranding ‘s recept
