Metal Gear Solid remake is next month
And I will definitely keep on keeping on. Will begin Death Stranding 2 soon
AI overlords have even gifted us a Snake Eater countdown clock

I’m a bit torn on snake eater remake. I mostly boycott Konami because of their business model, the horror stories of their sauna houses and work climate and mostly because of how they did Kojima bad.
But god damn I really really love snake eater and even though I played the original very recently I wouldn’t mind trying it with shiny new graphics.
I believe Hideo Kojima is not happy about it at all.
I’m torn! To reiterate.
I’m still running around Death Stranding 2 so you might see some of my bridges and things when you dive in. I nearly have the platinum trophy so I decided to stay a little while longer and scoop it up.
Oh I do have one major issue with new snake eater that might just be a me thing, because I haven’t seen many people talking about it or disturbed by it.
The hair is all wrong. Like it just looks too much like gelled anime fronds. It reminds me of ugly box art I used to marvel at in a video store for the N64.
Which I’m now learning was also a Konami Game 
maybe it’s an intentional throw back, or they were working on a gritty reboot that was cancelled and they asset flipped the very specific hair tech
Having just played a game he made where the characters hair could get greasy and matted and gooey and bloody depending how long you’re out in the field, I imagine he has trouble looking at these screenshots too

I was only listening to cherry blossoms the other day.( Lalala laaa laaaa laaa lalala laaa laaa. )
I always imagine if I need to explain to an alien what a video game is or could be, I’d just have to point to Katamari Damacy.
They released the original two on steam so hopefully it makes it’s way to other platforms outside of switch.
I’m typing all this before even checking it I’m just too excited at the news

Decided to try the demo announced in the Direct
Was quite fun and has a look that mixes old with new.

In the absence of anything better on the current market, I’ve invested in this:
My initial impressions are very favourable. As far as I’m concerned, it seems to have all the right notes, in all the right places.
It’s not going to win any prizes. It looks and plays like an open world adventure game from 20 years ago - but in my opinion, that’s no bad thing. I would far rather play Morrowind than Elden Ring.
Graphics are pretty basic by modern standards. English language voice acting is, shall we say, “adequate”.
It’s made by Polish developers Questline. Like their fellow Poles CD Projekt Red (Witcher series), their game is heavily influenced by the Elder Scrolls games, and their stories are a mixture of English (Arthurian) and Eastern European folklore.
So far, I think it’s a lot of fun.

Wuh oh, looks like more automated oversight with very little foresight strikes again 
This should be an easy fix once pointed out and an absolute non issue to rectify, but I’m sure it will be made into one somehow, it’s 2025, after all
