Don't have time to play but box looks nice. Box is nice and rectangle. Unfortunately as a late 30s millennial with a fulltime job I can not find time to play this game and get engaged in it's deep story telling. Perhaps one day at the nursing home I'll finally be able to have time and pick up the game... Wait no!! Arthritis is kicking in nooooo!

Hideo Kojima has done it again. What a beautiful and engaging story. The gameplay did not feel too repetitive at all. They upped the combat and world exploration. Sam’s story only gets deeper and more twisted as you play. From loving the first game to being obsessed with the second. Kojima has created an almost movie-style video game. The cutscenes are amazing, graphics are stunning, and overall a blast to play. There are tons of cool interactions with characters and tons of funny and engaging moments. I highly recommend this for anyone that enjoys a good chill single player experience.

Death stranding 2 continues the story of Sam Bridges after the events of death stranding 1. Kojima really outdid himself this time as death stranding 2 improves in every aingle way possible from DS1. Theres vehicles from the start, far more combat, better pacing story, and a much more engaging world. The music player definitely was a nice touch to this game as I spent many hours just driving around listening to the music. I highly recommend this game and remeber, keep on keeping on.

A Hauntingly Beautiful Journey Unlike Any Other

Death Stranding delivers a truly unique gaming experience that blends stunning visuals, an atmospheric world, and a deeply emotional story. The game’s innovative “strand” system encourages collaboration among players, even though you never meet them directly, making exploration and traversal feel meaningful. While the pacing can be slow and the gameplay focuses heavily on walking and package delivery, the engaging narrative and beautiful environments keep you invested. If you’re looking for something different and don’t mind a slower pace, Death Stranding is a must-try.

The spectacle, the ganeplay, the VO work, the cut scences all come together to make a stellar sequel. A great continuation of the story started in Death Stranding. Epic fights, one of a kind story, talking puppets, baby mech ninjas, a guitar that shoots energy, black goo, Troy Baker....this game has it all.

Walking Dead

If you like Walking Dead, there’s a lot of Walking, a lot of Dead, and Daryl is also there (from the show). On the box art you see that Norman Reedus has a baby, and it looks like a game where you can be a single dad and parent the baby. Not only is that what you do but there is a lot more action and gameplay that happens outside of just having the baby around. The baby also proves a lot of combat use that you don’t normally expect from a toddler. They did a very good job with the game overall.

Mailman Simulator 2: Sons of Postal Service

Death Stranding 2 sees the return of Sam Porter Bridges, the ultimate mailman. The gameplay is refined and feels streamlined while still offering the strange and quirky brand of gameplay introduced by Kojima in the first outing from 2019.
The story is full of twists and turns, as well as many strange and unusual moments that are signature Kojima style. For players who were on the fence of the original, there is a recap video, allowing newcomers to enjoy the events of the sequel without having to run through the original from beginning to end.

Very good game if you like Kojima type of story game. It has more action than the first. You also get vehicles quicker in this one. The core gameplay is delivering packages. I enjoyed the first one. The second one does everything better than the first one. So if you enjoyed the first one you will enjoy this one. You can also add the deluxe upgrade from ps store for $10 if you get the physical copy.
