-Popular faces seem to be appearing more and more in video games. We’ve seen Keanu Reeves starring as Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077 , Hideo Kojima has pulled nearly half of Hollywood into [[https://deathstranding2world.com/|Death Stranding 2 Walkthrough|Https://Deathstranding2World.Com/]] Stranding , and Fortnite keeps adding popular icons such as Batman . But there’s one person who continues to try and insert a specific animal into games: Geoff Keighley.Mr. Keighley, an ex-host for GameTrailers TV, and a freelance writer for various outlets started up his own awards show in 2014 titled The Game Awards. The award ceremony is designed to celebrate achievements in the video game industry. You’ll no doubt see him at numerous video game events and enjoying his friendships with famous faces in the industry. The year 2013 seems to be the first year I can find in which Geoff Keighley begins to harp on about giraffes noticeable amount. It seems to have started with just sharing his delight about the long-necked creatures, but has slowly escalated to become his brand. Now, it looks as though he’s trying to forcefully include giraffes in popular video games.Back in 2013, Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us  launched on PS3, and features a scene where Joel and Ellie see some giraffes in an overgrown city . Given Geoff’s current excitement for the upcoming sequel The Last of Us Part II , I believe his adoration towards giraffes in games stems from that very scene. However, on June 4, 2013, Geoff Tweeted that he loves giraffes , referencing the popular Toys R Us mascot, a giraffe named Geoffery. He claimed it was because Geoffery spells his name with a G, as opposed to the alternative, Jeffery. This was in the same month as E3 2013 which Geoff attended and tweeted out a picture of a giraffe wearing a bowtie that Spike TV had provided for the event.Later that year, Geoff brought our attention to the box art of Zoo Tycoon featuring a giraffe. This clearly delighted Geoff as it truly meant the Xbox One-exclusive launch title was bringing next-generation giraffes running on the new Microsoft console. Little did the industry know what the man had in store for video game giraffes in the future.A year later in 2014, Geoff asked someone on Twitter if there was going to be a playable giraffe in a video game. Sadly, Twitter seems to have lost the original Tweet, so all we can do is speculate on whatever game he’s referencing. It’s likely safe to say that he mentioned giraffes occasionally online and in replies to people, but as the years went on, his giraffe plan began to formulate even more. Giraffe Town , game in which you play as a weird clumsy giraffe launched on PC in 2018and Geoff caught wind of it and shared it . However, he seemed to be under the impression that it was spin-off title starring the giraffe from The Last of Us . No one seemed to clarify that it was an unrelated giraffe.Living in adoration for his video game giraffes took a dramatic turn these past two years. The Last of Us Part II was still heavily under wraps when Geoff Keighley and Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann began publicly talking about him having a part in the upcoming sequel as a giraffeGeoff sent Neil various videos of him acting and singing as an Animoji giraffe , and his potential inclusion looked promising. However, we since haven't heard of Keighley's involvement being confirmed, but the game is still to launch, so there’s a possibility.This year, it started to look as if Geoff’dream of having his favorite giraffe in video games was becoming success. Geoff had changed his profile picture to the giraffe from The Last of Us on September 23, but there was something odd. The giraffe was actually hologram-styled similarly to what is seen in Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding . We know that Geoff and Kojima have met up in the past. Hell, even Geoff himself is in Death Stranding as hologram , so there’s a very good chance that he’s nudged his favorite giraffe into the game as well. The Last of Us Part II was then ready to be revealed to the public some more this past month , and Geoff took the opportunity to tweet that there would be an important update on the status of giraffes in the game . We were, of course, not informed of any giraffes being in the game, but going by the Animoji musical situation earlier in the year, we may just see Geoff’s favorite giraffe making a cameo.+There is a high likelihood that Kojima Productions' next title truly is a Death Stranding sequelor new "strand gameof some kindKojima is not usually one to mince wordsespecially if it's a game he believes is shepherding in a new genre for the med
  
    
-Fatherhood in _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ might be a little more subtle as a theme than it was in the first game. Main character Arthur Morgan fights against time in many different ways throughout the story of the gameso it’s not particularly surprising that he doesn’t really have the chance to play the role of father in the game. Arthur actually once had a son, which he reveals through a missable side conversation in the story, but he and his mother were murdered in a robbery before the events of _ RDR +Headlining the PlayStation Store's Spring Sale is Death Stranding, which is no doubt one of the most highly-anticipated games of 2019 . Death Stranding is currently available at the PlayStation Store for $29.99which is 50% off its original list price of $59.99. It is worth mentioning that the game's price is the lowest its ever been, which means this is the perfect opportunity to pick up the game for players who have been waiting to see a significant price decre

It shows Sam on top of a building as one of the gigantic oily creatures looms above, and the picture would probably be a great representation of the moment without any special touches. However, TheFourthFocus’ spin on the piece really brings it together, as Sam can be seen making finger guns at the BT whale — showing no f

 +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 new genre of games isn't defined by just one gameplay experie

 +The PlayStation Blog post also includes several great character portraits, including Doom Eternal ’s Doom Hunters and Final Fantasy 7 Remake ’s Cloud. A heavily edited shot of a Storm Trooper preparing to launch a rocket at Cal in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is another great picture included in the post, as it shows just how detailed the armor worn by the foe is.

 +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
