New Path of Exile season is tight as fuck. Merciless breaches are kicking my dick in but my resists are shit. That should be fixed tonight though.

Interesting comments about time dilation and black holes, of which one of the equations on Norman's dog tags is concerned.

I don't think that Kojima even needs to make games anymore. Just make weird, short CGI movies and let people comb through them, figure them out and theorize. Honestly, no one else is doing that so he would have the best chance of making it work.
Honestly, I think that's the reason why people got so pissy about MGSV. He knows how to sell his product and his audience is going to overanalyze and want to make their own fan theories.

In response to the suggestion that Kojima should take the leap into making movies, Mads Mikkelsen offered, "Well, in a way, he is making films. He's creating his own worlds. And, he's letting us be the director, in a way."
Not being familiar with his work, I was not a fan of Kojima, previous to being turned on to Death Stranding. However, pretentious or not, it seems exactly the type of thing I would enjoy most in game or film. All this has even gotten me to go and watch walkthroughs of P.T., which I think was ace.

I'm currently playing Life Is Strange as well. Just finished Episode 4. Really enjoying the twisted story despite minor annoyances in some of the actual mechanics. At first I felt weird snooping through everyone's shit, but then video games. Can't wait to finish it.

Oooh, GC is my favourite console ever.
sweet! just knowing that sunshine, melee and luigi's mansion are prepped is nearly enough to make me buy one.
i'd love to be able to play F-Zero GX, Sonic Adventure 2 and Pokemon Colosseum as well.
as much as i have no problem re-buying games i had on GC, i really hope they don't milk the download prices too hard.

Really getting bummed out about my playstation 3 being stolen. Was the community gaming system, DVD player, and Netflix streamer for my house. Contemplating getting a new one for cheap, or getting a ps4 so I can play Fallout 4. Is this ps4 backwards compatible? I still have all my games, only the system was stolen.

I wish I could go back in and play Life is Strange for the first time again. Such a special little story.

that's a total bummer.
ps4 isn't backwards compatible with ps3 at all, won't be able to play your discs unfortunately.
on the plus side ps3's are hell cheap used, i bought a 500gb slim model for ~$50 recently, shouldn't be too devastating to replace if need be.
