'Death Stranding' Theory: Who is Mads Mikkelsen?
With so much hype for Death Stranding and so little information on what it is actually about and no release date yet, all fans can do is speculate. Creator Hideo Kojima, luckily, loves to leave trails of breadcrumbs for his fans to follow, giving them clues to piece together in the meantime. There's a lot of compelling evidence that Kojima's ideas for P.T. andSilent Hills were re-purposed for Death Stranding, including themes of infants, umbilical cords, and potentially Norman Reedus' character. But the character we probably know the least about is the one played by Mads Mikkelsen, the purported villain of the story. It can be hard to tell the purpose of a character without knowing about the story he takes part in, but it may be possible for us to glean some things from the clues we have.

Hello, and welcome back to Silver Linings where I find the positives in maligned pop culture. This is the second of my lists looking back at the Sega Saturn. When looking at why the Saturn failed like it did, many explanations were brought up. There was the botched early launch that alienated retail channels. There was the fact that the Saturn sold for $100 more than the Playstation and Nintendo 64, a handicap that didn't get reduced until the system was just about dead. There was then-CEO Bernie Stolar's comment that the Saturn wasn't the future of Sega which killed consumer interest after only two years on the market.

I've never wanted to shoot aliens square in the face more than when I started to play Destiny 2. I was immediately in love and I haven't felt that good playing an FPS game since Bioshock Infinite!
Joseffyne RobinsonPublished 7 years ago in Gamers'Tomb Raider': Classic vs Reboot
When people ask me what my favourite gaming franchise is, my answer has always been Tomb Raider, and I'm pretty sure it always will be. It was the franchise that first got me into gaming as a young girl, after many fun-filled hours of playing it with my Grandad. Also, Tomb Raider I was released in same year that I was born. I firmly believe that, even without these ties of sentiment or nostalgia, I would still have an affinity for Lara Croft. I mean, what's not to love about a strong woman who travels the world, beating all the bad guys and finding lots of relics?

Ah yes, that long awaited sense of adventure mixed with witty quips, epic gun battles, stomach churning climbing, and beautiful scenery. If any of this sounds familiar then you're privy to the epic gameplay that developer Naughty Dog has to offer in their infamous Uncharted series. This latest installment, The Lost Legacy, ditches the Drake brothers and their lovable (and seemingly ageless) sidekick Sully and replaces them with Chloe Frazier. Fans of the second Uncharted game, Among Thieves, will recognize her all too well. Added to the mix is another familiar character in Nadine Ross, who made her debut in the 2016 Uncharted game A Thief's End as head of the mercenary group, Shoreline. Much to the chagrin of diehard fans, we will not see Nathan Drake in this game. Naughty Dog has been explicit in their decision to leave the Drake storyline where it is, but hey, a boy can dream eh? After all, no one thought The Last of Us would get another installment, right? There is always room for hope!

Chasing Styx is a run 'n' gun adventure game on Steam. The creators are an indie company named ForepawSoft. Chasing Styx is only ForepawSoft's second game, but it is done rather brilliantly in my opinion. What makes it even better is that the game is free. They are also currently in the middle of another game.
Christopher WolvertonPublished 7 years ago in GamersFortnite Is Finally Coming
When Fortnite was first announced back in 2011, I was a very excited and happy chappie. I fell in love with the idea of building bases and fortifying them before defending them against hordes of zombies. What wasn't to like? If done correctly, there was no possible way for this to fail. So, expectations high, I waited with gleeful anticipation but as time went on, we heard less and less about Fortnite. The updates became less frequent while the setbacks piled up, all the while my enthusiasm was waning. Eventually, things went silent and to this day I'm not sure whether it was because development went cold or I'd just lost interest. Either way, the result was the same: I'd moved on.
