So, E3 is going on currently and all these companies are releasing their trailer and Hideo Kojima (Creator of Metal Gear Solid and Zone OF The Enders, amongst others) stepped up to the plate with Death Stranding.

And, yeeeeeeeeeeeeah. Okay. What the hell? I mean, being Kojima, I knew it was going to be weird, but, woweez. I have no clue what this is going to be about or like.

That's weird even by Kojima standards.

Absolutely. And this is a man who wanted a boss fight in Metal Gear Solid 3 to take the player 168 hours.

Yes, that is totally a nude, mo-capped Norman Reedus. Wonder what his reaction was when he was told what they wanted him to do? And Kojima went from a near-nude Stephanie Joosten (Quiet in MGS V) to a completely nude Norman Reedus. Hey, you do you, Kojima, you do you.

Kojima, Guillermo Del Torro and Norman Reedus were originally slated to make a new Silent Hills game a few years back. Then Kojima and Konami had their falling out, del Toro got busy with other stuff and it fell apart. I assume this is a revival of the project but it's hard to tell.

I am curious what the hell this game is going to be like. It could go so many different directions based on this "trailer"

Daryl on Walking Dead, one of the brothers from Boondock Saints.

Yeah. Granted, if the idea was to get people talking, it was certainly a success. But I'd like to at least know what the game is going to be like. Are we just going to play naked Daryl Dixon murdering crabs to save an invisible oil/USB baby? I trust in Kojima though, the man is brilliant and now he doesn't have Konami keeping him on a short leash
